Who's Congress?

his is  bad enough to see it with sports, but now it is in schools and congress….SICK!!!!

If they won't stand and recite the Pledge of Allegiance,

In my opinion...they have no place in our Congress.

Any member of the house or senate that refuse to stand and recite the Pledge of Allegiance in the Chambers should be escorted out by the
Sergeant at Arms until they comply. If your allegiance is not with this country and our flag, just who is it with?

Why don't we ask someone like Minnesota's Muslim congressman Keith Ellison!

Let`s cut off their pay  -- and all benefits. Give the ingrates two days to decide to retire or be impeached.

Aas reported on Fox News, Who threatened Whom?

Former IRS official Lois Lerner and her deputy are asking a federal court to keep their testimonies in the Tea Party targeting case private forever, over fear of death threats and potential harm to their families if the documents go public.

Lerner and her deputy Holly Paz filed a motion last Thursday to keep the materials—including tapes and transcripts of their depositions—sealed due to threats they have received in the past.

Court documents, reviewed by Fox News, said the “public dissemination of their deposition testimony would expose them and their families to harassment and a credible risk of violence and physical harm.”
“Whenever Mss. Lerner and Paz have been in the media spotlight, they have faced death threats and harassment,” the documents stated. “Returning Mss. Lerner and Paz to the media spotlight places them at risk, regardless of what they actually said in those depositions.”
The documents also stated that: “Public exposure will put innocent bystanders, namely Mss. Lerner’s and Paz’s family members (including young children), at risk, too.”
Lerner and Paz pointed to comments from Tea Party leader Mark Meckler that the lawsuit would “treat the IRS like the criminal thugs they are.” The court filing argued that his comments have created a “fertile environment where threats” against them have “flourished.”
Lerner and Paz argued that publicity would “renew the threats and harassment,” and said they have presented “compelling reasons” to “override” unsealing the deposition transcripts and summary judgment materials quoting them.
The request was first reported by The Washington Times.
The Justice Department told Fox News on Monday that the testimonies of both Lerner and Paz remain sealed.
TRUMP DOJ SETTLES LAWSUITS OVER TEA PARTY TARGETING BY OBAMA IRS 
Lerner and Paz’s attempt to keep them sealed comes after the Trump administration, after years of litigation, settled lawsuits with the Tea Party and other conservative groups who said they were unfairly targeted by the IRS under the Obama administration.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions last month announced the Justice Department had entered into settlements with the Tea Party groups whose tax-exempt status was significantly delayed by the IRS dating back to 2013, “based solely on their viewpoint or ideology.”
The settlements involved payments to the plaintiffs and an apology from the IRS.
 “The IRS’s use of these criteria as a basis for heightened scrutiny was wrong and should never have occurred,” Sessions said in a statement at the time. “It is improper for the IRS to single out groups for different treatment based on their names or ideological positions.”
The scandal drew heavy attention in 2013, when the IRS admitted it applied extra scrutiny to conservative groups applying for nonprofit status.
Lerner, who was then head of the Exempt Organizations unit responsible, became the public face of the scandal, though other IRS officials were involved as well.

Cut Taxes Cut Spendiing

Our problem; we keep finding ways to spend more money from State and Federal coffers. Proposed Federal tax cuts might force us into a higher national debt because liberals will find more methods to create identification of a problem for spending tax dollars to cure it with a bigger and worse problem. Liberal governments create a greater thirst for dollars. The Opioids treat pain and become a habit. Our newly elected New Jersey Governor will let you have your Mar-Jane fix. Marijuana self-treats pain.

If Tax cuts create a growing economy which results in more income taxes collected as employment rises in New Jersey rises, more in income taxes will be collected.  Mr. Murphy, NJ Liberal's choice, will take more property taxes from dastardly rich who already are paying a major burden.

Federal Government spending has been increasing since the Liberal JFK, took funds from Social Security. Followed by Johnson, Nixon, Carter, Bush, Clinton, Bush and Obama (many endorsed by Liberal News). Their liberal thinking spent the country into slow economic growth. We saw liberal lending policies cause Fannie-Mae and Freddie Mac collapse. The national and state governments collect taxes from wages and profits, while our state (takes two bites), county and townships collect taxes based on your home and business properties. Cut Taxes and Cut Spending.

When will we begin to do without?

Some towns which have major amounts of pedestrian traffic have crossing signals that not only flash but verbally instruct when to walk, regardless whether the pedestrian is reading a message on their favorite cell phone or reading latest lover message. Intersection message might even help avoid walking into a utility pole.

 Over the past decades there have been numerous innovations and even some inventions that have improved our safety as well as our conveniences and way of life. For the sake of reducing our frustrations and safety there should be a cell phone, or automobile, that when operated, either cell phone or automobile would automatically command the automobile to park off the roadway. Or when the traffic light turns green a loud speaker would announce; Get off the phone - Stupid.

Yes, sometimes children, spouse or telemarketer, will have an urgent message and will call wherever you are whether, toilet facility, library, funeral, or negotiating.

JUST TURN THE DAMN THING OFF. 

Maybe, you will when you come to think of your cell phone as a pacifier.
 

Why are R's Screwin D.T.

When you were young and played barefooted nothing bothered you. As we grew older we reached a point that we need flip flops. The rough roads deterred us from walking to the friend’s house.

Trump, we elected him because the governmental politicians, and there long term fixed bureaucracy employees, built too many road blocks and assaults on our personal freedom. Now the Party, which Trump came to join in our revolution, and rescue us from the one he defeated, that party and her cohorts are trying to make him walk barefooted. 
When he gets there he cannot be certain that he has reached a friend’s house, whether R or D.
