Edwin Jackson, Indianapolis Colts linebacker, was killed by an illegal immigrant, police say :!: :cuss: Rep. Todd Rokita: This news should make all Americans angry. A twice-deported illegal immigrant is suspected of killing 2 Hoosiers, including Colts LB Edwin Jackson. We must do more to get these dangerous illegal immigrant criminals off our streets, build a wall & put an end to illegal immigration :!: Image

The top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee held an eight-minute phone conversation last year with Russian radio hosts posing as a Ukrainian politician who promised to provide compromising images of President Trump. The conversation involving Rep. Adam Schiff, which took place on April 10 of last year, was first reported by The Atlantic last month. On Tuesday, the Daily Mail published purported audio of the call. This is the same guy who claimed Don Jr. was “unpatriotic” for having a 20 minute meeting with a Russian lawyer :!:

ABC, NBC and CBS all ignored :cuss: :cuss: a bombshell report released overnight by Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, which revealed more critical evidence concerning how the FBI handled the Hillary Clinton e-mail probe. The Committee also released more damning text messages between FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page which showed an intention by the agents to find evidence to impeach President Trump as well as the news that President Obama wanted to be involved in the Clinton e-mail investigation.

The federal government this January ran a surplus while collecting record total tax revenues for that month of the year, according to the Monthly Treasury Statement released today.

January was the first month under the new tax law that President Donald Trump signed in December.

During January, the Treasury collected approximately $361,038,000,000 in total tax revenues and spent a total of approximately $311,802,000,000 to run a "surplus" of approximately $49,236,000,000. :Happy: :clap: :up:

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-nine percent (49%) disapprove.

This is the president’s highest job approval rating since mid-June of last year. President Obama earned 45% approval on this date in the second year of his presidency. :!: :!: :clap: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

he has a few points. How far left do you have to be to think Obama was a centrist? Obama did so much on the far leftist agenda and they don’t give him any credit for it. He really moved the ball on the field and they act like he was a watered down bill Clinton working with republicans. Obama whooped the Republican Party good for 8 years, they rolled over for him again and again. Despite the narrative the were obstructionist, but that’s confusing party rhetoric which actual actions. Looking at what the republicans actually did they were more helpful than the democrats. I think people forget how splintered the congressional democrats were, yes they got a few big issues like Obama care but dropped the ball on everything else like immigration and gun control when they literally couldn’t be stoped legislatively.

Back to 2020 Election Biggest thing in trumps favor is just being an incumbent, very hard to unseat a president, only reason Clinton won in 1992 was Ross Perot. W Bush won with a unpopular war, Obama with a bad economy, I think people and the powers in the market don’t like change once a president is established in power, I also think we’d rather not go through the PITA of a new administration figuring out how to walk.

The next big thing in trump favor is the insane media, mainstream birthers nobody believes any more. When they do get real dirt on Trump or real scandals they’ve already cried wolf too many times. Same kind of thing happened during the Clinton years, Republican media/radio would foam at the mouth at every Clinton scandal which there were plenty of legitimate scandals, mainstream media would cover up stuff like his affairs and sexual assaults, even if they had not most American were living comfortable, felt safe, and were making money on the stock market, and just didn’t care is the president was a sexual predator or immoral. They said back then Clinton was inoculated by the rabid republican hating on him, maybe there’s some truth to it. If so and Clinton was inoculated under that light roasting what the hell has these idiots done to trump? Inoculated him or given him super mutant political powers?

As you say, actions speak louder than words. Obama may have been good at telling liberals what they wanted to hear, but he started something like seven wars, and his administration was filled with Wall Street insiders. Even his signature achievement, Obamacare, was originally a Republican initiative, drawn up by the conservative Heritage Foundation and first implemented by Mitt Romney, who was forced to run against him in 2012 by promising to repeal his own policy. As for whupping the GOP's ass, that may have been true in presidential elections, but the Dems lost over 1000 down-ticket races under his watch.

I meant whupping the republican legislatively, they bitched and moaned but passed funding for all of his projects, any opposition usually crumbled before a deadline, 2or 3 times obama had unbelievable deals with the republicans only to blow the deals up last minute with extra demands. In contrast the democrat controlled congress passed very few agenda items. The congress that passed obama care was divided on every other major issue. At the time they said it was because obama did to reach out to congress. Which was true. I think people forget how bad it was before republican majorities.

I agree on the other major issues about his presidency, in hind sight obama failed to legislate the left agenda but through executive action he push a lot of activist agenda items through with almost no credit from his own team. Matt Damon bitched and bitched about obama, I don’t know what else he expected obama to do.

But he did promise a lot that he didn’t deliver to the the poor and lower middle class. And he hired all the people Clinton would of and enacted most of the same Wall Street policies. In that way he was a failure, not sure if doing wall streets bidding makes him a centrist.

“The nomination of Marvin Quattlebaum speaks to the overall lack of diversity in President Trump’s selections for the federal judiciary. Quattlebaum replaces not one, but two scuttled Obama nominees who were African American,” Schumer said. “As of February 14th, 83 percent of the President Trump’s confirmed nominees were male, 92 percent were white. That represents the lowest share of non-white candidates in three decades,” he continued, “It’s long past time that the judiciary starts looking a lot more like the America it represents. Having a diversity of views and experiences on the federal bench is necessary for the equal administration of justice.” :Bonk:--------------Tim Scott ✔
@SenatorTimScott
Perhaps Senate Democrats should be more worried about the lack of diversity on their own staffs than attacking an extremely well-qualified judicial nominee from the great state of South Carolina.

As rumors swirl that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is preparing a case against Russians who are alleged to have hacked Democrats during the 2016 election – a conclusion based solely on the analysis of cybersecurity firm Crowdstrike, a Friday op-ed in the Washington Times by retired U.S. Navy admiral James A. Lyons, Jr. asks a simple, yet monumentally significant question: Why haven’t Congressional Investigators or Special Counsel Robert Mueller addressed the murder of DNC staffer Seth Rich – who multiple people have claimed was Wikileaks’ source of emails leaked during the 2016 U.S. presidential election?

Mueller has been incredibly thorough in his ongoing investigations – however he won’t even respond to Kim Dotcom, the New Zealand entrepreneur who clearly knew about the hacked emails long before they were released, claims that Seth Rich obtained them with a memory stick, and has offered to provide proof to the Special Counsel investigation.

I’d think if he’s looking into the leaks he has to look at the murder.

The Zogby Poll®: Trump job approval at 48%; Trump job approval 'among millennials' 50% :clap: ; A majority of voters want to support 2nd amendment when Hollywood demands gun control. When it came to party, Trump remains strong among Republicans (87% approve/13% disapprove) and his numbers are climbing among Independents (41% approve/55% disapprove). President Trump's numbers were also slightly higher among Democrats (20% approve/78% disapprove) compared to the January figures. With women(41% approve). A majority (56% strongly and somewhat support combined) of voters want to support their constitutional right to bear arms when they hear Hollywood actors and actresses speak out about gun control. This is compared to 28% (strongly and somewhat oppose combined) of voters who want to oppose the 2nd amendment when Hollywood talks about banning guns. Among all age groups surveyed, supporting the 2nd amendment was strongest among Millennials aged 18-29 (65% support/23% oppose) and 18-24 (58% support/26% oppose). A majority of all other age groups were also more likely to want to support the 2nd amendment rather than oppose it when Hollywood talks about gun control.
