Clovis?

To begin, what type of caliber individual is the American people receiving to run the government with this administration?

But, as to Clovis; there is a god.

Tne caliber of the Trump individual is not discussed enough. These people have an agenda. They aren't good for the country. Their agenda threatens America's promise to every generation.

"Good job, Brownie." People were dying. They died and may very well be dying right now in Puerto Rico. There is a lack of expertise, ethics and morals; not to speak to their preparedness for taking office in the federal government.

A billion dollar cut for the Army Corp,

June 29, 2017

Signals are strong that Congress (click here) will reject President Trump’s proposed sharp spending cut in fiscal year 2018 for the Army Corps of Engineers civil-works program, which includes funds for river locks and dams, flood control and environmental restoration projects.
Trump’s FY18 budget request, sent to Congress on May 22, would slash Corps civil-works spending by $1 billion, or 17%, to $5 billion. But a House appropriations subcommittee has spurned the president’s proposal. The panel cleared a bill on June 28 that recommends increasing Corps 2018 civil-works spending by 2%, to $6.16 billion. [Read the draft bill text]

In the Senate, Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), who chairs the appropriations subcommittee in charge of Corps spending, said at a June 28 hearing on the agency’s budget that Trump’s proposed $1-billion cut for Corps civil works would be “an enormous step backwards.” Alexander said, “We should spend more, not less, on our nation’s water infrastructure.” [Read text of Alexander's prepared statement....

This is an absolute joke. Harvey, Irma, Maria and Philippe recently rolled through the Florida Keys AGAIN. This is ridiculous.

They have no morals. They have no conscience.

There was a fatal flaw by the DNC and Clinton Campaign; they never discussed them in a new conference.

I didn't read them, but, evidently others did. This particular breaking news does not impress me as something that should have caused radical anger with the American people.

To begin, the DNC, Secretary Clinton and Mr. Podesta were the victims. Their data bases and emails were hacked. Then the emails taken, even from the Clinton server, is not classified information. I believe Secretary Clinton stated same. Then there was insistence by the opposition to her presidency there were "c" on some indicating "classified."

There should have been a news conference with all the victims to discuss the specifics of the investigation and to discuss the noise with the American public. There was a missed opportunity to place themselves square in the public eye as victims to ruthlessness.I think the American people deserved that.

Instead, the American people were allowed to believe the victims weren't victims, but, criminals that deserved to be exposed. There is such a thing as the truth. I think the American people can be trusted with it.

Originally, the Clinton emails were supposed to be placed in a searchable data base for the campaign to use.

A data firm used by the Trump campaign (click here) asked Wikileaks' founder Julian Assange in 2016 for access to Hillary Clinton's emails kept on a private server while she was secretary of state, The Daily Beast reported.
The chief executive of Cambridge Analytica, Alexander Nix, sent an email to several people -- including Rebekah Mercer, a top donor to President Donald Trump's campaign -- explaining how he had contacted Assange seeking access to Clinton's private server. Nix wanted to turn her emails into a searchable database for the Trump campaign or for a pro-Trump political action committee, sources familiar with the situation told CNN.

1the Trump campaign hired Cambridge Analytica in the summer of 2016 as part of a three-pronged data operation led by Brad Parscale and overseen by Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and a top White House aide.

No one from the Trump campaign was copied on the email, the sources said, and there is no evidence the Democratic presidential nominee's emails were ever hacked or that Wikileaks ever gained possession of them.

Republican talking points about the proposed tax cuts.

"Open up the American economy."

Reckless deregulation no different than Snyder and Flint.

"Let's try something different."

The American economy is not an experiment.

Another woman discriminated against.

There is absolutely no reason to replace her. Oh, but, the markets are fine with her replacement. Really. Every woman within the scope of Wall Street, including secretaries and file clerks, should be protesting.

As predicted, the markets have had unprecedented growth. Chairwoman Yellen is a genius and now she has received news she will be replaced, FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON EXCEPT SHE IS A WOMAN!

When the market crashes again, we'll know who to blame.

A day before President Trump (click here) was expected to name their next leader, Federal Reserve policymakers decided to hold a key interest rate steady at between 1 percent and 1.25 percent. However, analysts are still looking for a rate increase at the central bank's next meeting, in mid-December.

The Fed's post-meeting statement would seem to support that expectation. Policymakers slightly upgraded their assessment of economic growth from moderate to "solid" despite disruptions from hurricanes Harvey and Irma. And they said the labor market has continued to strengthen, despite a hurricane-related drop in payroll numbers in September....

Don't tell me cyber is not the enemy. Example in point.

I know what I am writing about. Osama bin Laden is dead and the enemy is cyber. End of discussion.

The wacko, fruitcake Muslim didn't even have contact with an Imam or any Cleric.


This poor idiot trusted cyber to inspire his jihad. This is the most outrageous lack of national secuirty in the face of American and International deaths when it was completely avoidable, both from infrastructure and ending access to cyber sites where ideology lives all by itself even in the face of the deaths of iconic leaders.


These websites NEVER had the protection of the First Amendment. These websites are inflammatory, promote the death of other human beings and formate hate. They need to be dismantled NOW! 


It is outrageous to realize this man was radicalized in the USA with access to a cell phone. He never imagined his Muslim roots would be able to access INSPIRATION HATE with the purchase of a GD cell phone! 


This attack is owned by Homeland Security. There is no way a video that inspires hate and demands death is protected in this country. Oh, wait, I forgot the NSA and all the computerized EXPERTS within the national security network have everything under control. THAT IS LAUGHABLE!


That hapless fool never stopped to question why he never felt hate the way he did with his AMERICAN cell phone.

...As investigators (click here) looked into whether Mr. Saipov’s Uzbek contacts may have handed him off to an ISIS operative, they pieced together parts of his past, law enforcement officials said. He attended a wedding in Florida of an Uzbek man who was under scrutiny by the F.B.I. But his attendance didn’t trigger a separate investigation of him, the official.

Investigators were still looking into whether Mr. Saipov had links to other federal counterterrorism inquiries.


On Mr. Saipov’s cellphone, F.B.I. agents found 90 videos, including of ISIS fighters killing prisoners and of instructions for making an explosive device, according to the criminal complaint. They also found 3,800 images, among them some of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS. The complaint said Mr. Saipov reported being inspired in particular by a video in which Mr. al-Baghdadi “questioned what Muslims in the United States and elsewhere were doing to respond to the killing of Muslims in Iraq.


The F.B.I. was uncovering details that sent agents on a far-ranging chase for leads.


But several crucial facts remain unclear. It is not known if the F.B.I. is still investigating the Uzbek man whose wedding Mr. Saipov attended. And as investigators built out concentric circles of his associates, they are still looking at whether Mr. Saipov had direct connections with ISIS operatives....


It is noteworthy to realize Saipov PRACTICED his attack. He even rented the very truck he would use to conduct such a rehearsal. Americans need to report anything that seems odd and out of place. Nothing bad will happen if such observations are made. I have at times reported what was odd to me and a simple investigation by on-duty police officers resulted in a "Thank you, we've got it from here." I went on my way and never concerned myself with the issue again.
