Clarification of Real Truckmaster Blogs
For those who follow my blog posts on RTM blogs let me clarify and clear up some confusion.
I write highlighting the inconsistencies and hypocrisy of the far-left's war on anything Trump.
There are too many willing to argue without merit and I would be remiss attempting to argue against their ignorance, they have way too much experience.
My writings are my personal opinion intended to be educational in nature, a bit humorous, satirical, while being informative providing food for thought, which is sorely lacking today. For those who find my posts offensive, I am truly sorry, you have the right NOT to read them as have many before you. I will not attempt to change your mind politically, but provide the opportunity to show something you may wish to consider, thereby illuminating prejudice and misinformation! - I am the Real Truckmaster!
A few years back some of the Mickey Ds in town had switched to kiosks to order and being a big boy I decided to place my order. I fumbled and fiddled through the process and placed my order. Shortly they called me to the counter to pay and pickup. The clerk asked if that was all I wanted and I said yes, that’s all I wanted. I paid for my breakfast sandwich and he handed it in a to-go bag. I decided to sit and eat before heading to the car and on to finish me errands. I opened the bag and tucked neatly in that yellow wrapping were my two plain McMuffin slices, which I ate as if that was what I really wanted……
The moral of my story is to check, check and double check when ordering from a faceless machine menu. McMuffins normally come with egg, cheese, and ham for a buck. Haven’t been back for several years now and I have no idea what they come with or cost. But if the clerk asks, that’s a red flag alert that all may not be well with your order.
BTW that 4 for a $1 advertisement on television do not mean you can order all four sandwich combos for a buck either, you got to choose only one combo i.e. burger, fries, nuggets and a drink (I tried). – I am the Real Truckmaster!
There is too much boohooing going on about one thing or another. It’s time to write the wrongs okay? Every family has photos of the good old days when life was great, or so it seems. Well not everything was hunky dory. Some of us had a real hard time and many of us still do.
Have you picked up a newspaper lately? Headlines capture our attention and if we delve into the stories or check out the obituary section those tell stories as well. I remember talking to my dad over a cup of coffee as he picked up the newspaper and opened it up to the obituaries, and then sports. I asked why he went to the obituary and his answer was classic dad – to see if I’m in there. It was no consolation for me being a “junior” because if he wasn’t looking for himself, he had to be looking for me. Well he showed up 6 years ago.
My dad was a hotshot marble champion in his day. He loved playing basketball and rough housing it with his brothers. During WWII he, like many others, headed down to the recruiters office to enlist, only trouble he wasn’t old enough yet. When he did enlist it was during the end of the war and the beginning of atomic bomb testing in the Pacific where he was part of Operation Crossroads in 1945 at a place called the Bikini Atoll. He was part of the fleet of sailors on ships to measure the effect of radiation exposure during an underwater explosion. He was also on a ship that was attacked by a Japanese Zero where they tried to shoot the plane out of the sky. Don’t know if they did, but that would have been his story. After the service he worked the migrant crop harvest of Idaho, Nevada, and Oregon and wherever they found crops to pick. One of the crops dad picked was mom. Together their crops were me, and my brothers Jess, John and Jerry. Our crops were our kids; their crops were their kids and grandkids, etc. Like taters in the field each with a very different story to tell.
Dad’s story didn’t end with us kids, oh no, it barely began with us. We moved around with the migrant crews and dad was a crew boss, but we were all part of the crew too. Just big enough to walk, we walked the fields shaking vines. As we grew we moved to picking spuds and stacking them on the truck, which mom was the driver. Due to a farming incident requiring surgery on dad’s leg we moved into the city and became city kids. Dad was always a hard worker, pushing on when others slacked up, but we were always together as a family. Dad became an ordained minister up until he retired, but always was available for spiritual guidance and weddings. Dad had mobility issues and after mom died 6 years ago, he spent his final 3 years in the Idaho State Veteran’s home in Boise. Now he is buried beside mom, next to John and dad’s sister Loretta. And his story doesn’t stop there as his example continues to live on in our stories to our families.
It’s important not just to live, but to live a life of honor, faithfulness and being a person of trust. We can walk the highway of life and never leave a trail or we can cut a wide swath so that others will know that we unequivocally lived a life to be proud of.
This country we live in was made by men and women like mom and dad who put their family, friends and strangers first by literally giving the coat off their backs to anyone in need. To whom have you told your story? – I am the Real Truckmaster!
Asylum Seekers = fleeing persecution should go to the first or closest nation and apply for asylum; fleeing through other countries without claiming asylum is a sign of deceit.
Climate Change and Pollution = by design the climate has and will always be in a state of flux (change), we have an obligation to live responsibly and not squander or waste our natural resources.
Defund Police = impeding law enforcement enables lawless individuals and threatens the safety and security of society.
Domestic Terrorists = inflict lawlessness, mayhem, chaos and fear into society; enemies of the state.
Dreamers = simply a term used to categorize and justify illegal migrants.
Equity = there can never be equity in life so long as one man simply seeks what another man has.
Human Race = mankind is created equal by God; run your race fairly so as to claim your prize.
Inoculate to protect against the “Corona” virus = getting the jab must remain a personal choice as the resulting consequences are personal; does not protect against being infected.
One God = live to serve God above all else. Obey the Commandments of God. Love God, each other and whenever possible live peacefully with all men.
Open Border = weakens national security while orderly crossings promote tourism.
Patriotism = pride for country, not excusing past or perceived atrocities but working to make the nation better.
Racism = treating people differently according to the color of their skin or ethnic background; affirmative action is simply a form of racism.
Reparations = casting guilt on another for the color of their skin and requiring monetary payments is racist and is called extortion.
Resist government = resisting an unjust government is the right and responsibility of every citizen; attempting to overthrow an elected official may be called treasonous.
Slow or stop the aging process = the circle of life cannot be stopped or slowed by surgery or “health” food supplements; man is appointed to be born and once to die. You only take out what you bring in to this life.
Undocumented migrants = unvetted migration threatens the safety and national security of a nation.
Welfare = receiving assistance in lieu of working is nothing more than indentured servitude binding the receiver to the government. A hand up, not a hand out!
Wokeness = political or religious prosecution is unlawful under the Constitution.
Women’s right to choose = cannot infringe upon the rights of another to life. Sexual promiscuity or convenience outside of marriage is called sin.
This list could continue infinitely and is used to confuse and create division. We have but one life to live, so live wisely and let the mark you make be a lasting tribute to God. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
If I ever get on a plane and see Samuel L. Jackson and Julianna Margulies sitting in first class or coach I’m getting off that plane, I’ll take the next one thank you – even if I have to wait for hours! I still haven’t sit through the 2006 movie “Snakes on a Plane”, but prior to 2020 I used to fly everywhere – Idaho, California, Florida, Georgia, even to Thailand and then back to Colorado.
I’m reminded of a trip I made a few years back to Chiang Mai, Thailand our van stopped at a snake farm and absolutely nobody would get out. Another trip to Cobra Village near Nam Phuong, Thailand we went to a family run show featuring family snake charmers and their cobras. I wanted to sit close to the stage so I’d record an unobstructed view of the show. No such luck as the family wanted to be as far away from the stage as possible where I did manage to get some footage.
Generally speaking I don’t run across many snakes, at least not after retiring from the military where I used to see rattlers in Idaho, Colorado, Missouri and California. Missouri had those water moccasins that used to interrupt my fishing trips.
Although they were abundant I never came across snakes, kaman, gators or crocks in Panama. The closest I got was this alligator I held and the snake placed on my shoulder for a photo in Florida a while ago.
They say you got to love reptiles and I know God created them for a reason – to scare the begebbers outta people like me. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
As the 2022 and 2024 campaign trails heat up there is speculation of who the best candidate will be for president in 2024. I’ve seen names thrown around like DeSantis, Pompeo, two Scotts, Cotton or Trump. Although they are each better candidates than what the Democrats are hinting at, Biden, Clinton or even Harris I don’t think any of the “D”s have a clue how to manage or lead our nation as they had no idea how to legislate during their time in the Senate.
What America needs more than anything else are politicians who put their trust not in man, but in God. There are 50 states that desperately need competent leadership. Thus far those with strong Republican governors who don’t hesitate to stand up against Democratic tyrants or incompetent elected or appointed politicians in government are what we need to see more of.
I personally would like to see a Mike Pompeo – Tim Scott ticket in 2024. It would be a new direction for American politics where two very smart individuals could bring real change. I think having Ron DeSantis in Florida does more to keep tyranny in check than anything else and America needs that.
I also think that having Donald Trump hitting the campaign trail, endorsing candidates with truly American values, calling out the RINOs and pandering Dems is more of a threat to the entire Progressive Democratic Party than he was as president simply because of his impending threat to occupy the White House once again.
It’s well past time for Americans to exercise their Brain-Before-Voting and expel every political office holder that continues to follow the leader by mandating or legislating un-American values. There are 535 seats in Congress, 100 in the Senate and 435 in the House and every one should be filled with patriotic Americans of every political party.
We need to close our borders to unlawful immigration and commit our law enforcement resources to identifying and arresting and prosecuting politicians at every level who manipulated, orchestrated or executed this mass immigration assault on America. We then must track down, apprehend and deport EVERY illegal resident inside United States territory. Those who are hard-working, contributing to our society could be offered a path to citizenship, depending upon their circumstances.
My plan may not address every issue with the immigration system, but maintaining an open door policy along the southern border is not in America’s best interests or national security. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
Maybe I come from a musical family because “People say I’m the life of the party because I tell a joke or two” from one of my favorite Smokey Robinson songs – Tracks of My Tears. Growing up in southwestern Idaho in the 1950s – 1960s has given me a unique perspective on life and when coupled with a military career that spanned the Vietnam War to Desert Shield it’s not a bad thing. When I began to listening to country music and one of my favorite singers was Jim Reeves.
Welcome to my world won’t you come on in Miracles I guess still happen now and then Step into my heart leave your cares behind Welcome to my world built with you in mind
Knock and the door will open seek and you will find Ask and you will be given the key to this world of mine
I’ll be waiting here with my arms unfurled Waiting just for you welcome to my world
During the end of my military service I switched over to contemporary Christian music where the emphasis is not on me, per say, but on praising and honoring God. One of the first Christian groups I listened to was a Christian Rock band call Petra. One of their songs from their album The Best of Petra Praise, called Take Me In literally spoke to my heart, my inner being. It’s a rather short song, but when you’re in your quiet place, meditating on the magnificence of God, WOW – this song will bring you to your knees.
Take me past the outer courts Into the Holy place Past the brazen altar Lord I want to see Your face Pass me by the crowds of people The priests who sing Your praise I hunger and thirst for Your righteousness And it’s only found one place
Take me in to the Holy of Holies Take me in by the blood of the Lamb Take me in to the Holy of Holies Take the coal, cleanse my lips, here I am Take the coal, cleanse my lips, here I am
I don’t know what “floats your boat” (dad was a navy man) but I challenge you to go outside your comfort zone, live life the way God intended – in the NOW. Don’t let anyone steal your joy. Guard your heart and your tongue (even your fingers as you type, text or email others). Don’t let a bad situation today affect your tomorrows. God has not promised that life would be a walk in the park, rose garden or easy, but he has promised to never leave us, nor forsake us. I like the sign (above), stating how far walking back to God is from where you are now. Make that trip joyful in songs of praise to the one who created you and me. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
Since the days of Adam and Eve perception has not necessarily been reality. God said “Don’t or you will die” while the serpent said “You will not surely die, but become as God”. The good book tells us that disobedience to God is sin. There is a price to pay for sin that does not end with the physical death of man.
Today we refer to it as “Gaslighting” – Making someone question their own reality. Did you know there are schools for that? Schools that teach psychology to reach inside people’s minds in order to find out what makes them tick.
There are also schools that train individuals how to interpret the law. Upon graduation from these prestigious institutions we often refer them as liars I mean lawyers. Under the law the accused is considered innocent until tried in court and found guilty. They are taught what the law says in order to influence a court, a judge or a jury to render a favorable verdict for their client. True guilt or innocence may not have anything to do with it. If the jury perceives, based on the evidence presented, that the accused is innocent or guilty a verdict is rendered.
The same is true in politics. Politicians, many of whom are lawyers by trade, use the court of public opinion to render their political opponent in a bad light, either far right or far left in order to influence voters. There are some who collaborate with others to engineer and event or incident to the detriment of another politician but to their own political advantage. Using a constant barrage of truths, half-truths and outright lies many a politician has fallen from grace only to have their political, personal and professional lives ruined.
Let us compare two very prominent politicians who are household names in America and around the world. One a lifelong politician, the other a lifelong businessman who reached for and achieved the highest office in our nation – President of the United States where the mere mention of their names evoke an immediate and everlasting response.
Turning from a lifetime of a successful businessman and entertainer to the office of the Presidency, Donald Trump began a campaign to turn America into a more productive nation where everyone deserves the same opportunity to achieve the American dream. His political rivals also began a campaign to discredit and oppose this political outsider. His many accomplishments were marginalized, minimized and overshadowed by political grandstanding and his being forever known as the President who was impeached twice during a single term and his re-election stolen by election and voter fraud leading to a national day of anger that derailed the election process.
Turning public service into a lifelong profession in Congress with nothing outstanding to be remembered for before rising to the height of power as Vice President and then his claim to fame is defeating the incumbent to become President, Joe Biden then proceeded to erase the legacy of his predecessor at great expense of the American people and all that during his first year in office. The perception that he is doing an outstanding job, completely ignores his failures in handling the virus using dictatorial-style mandates causing massive American job losses; opening the US/Mexico border to undocumented and illegal migrants and their dispersion into the US interior; misuse of America’s natural resources; and the bungling and misuse of the Armed Forces and the Department of Justice. With Biden being the public face of the Democratic Party and how to succeed in politics, maybe it’s time for a new political mascot – the Cheetah, not for is speed and elegance or efficiency, but for how it sounds (cheater). – I am the Real Truckmaster!
The bible tells that we are wonderfully made and in the image of our creator God. Our purpose, our destiny, the hairs on our head and even the number of our days were determined before the world was created. Let that sink in…
When God created Adam he walked and talked with God daily. Can you imagine the peaceful calm over throughout the garden and over the entire earth? Life was good. God looked over all his creation and saw that it was good. God saw that Adam needed a help-mate, so out of Adam God created Eve and they became one.
When the serpent showed his ugly head as the tempter first Eve, then Adam fell to temptation, mankind became sinful and life on planet earth changed forever.
Out of all that was created there is only one Begotten Son of the Father and his name is Jesus. He was born with a purpose – to save the world from sin. But Jesus was born to live as a man tempted in every way, but live nonetheless without sin.
Did Jesus know his road would ultimately lead to the cross? After all he was fully God and fully Man. I have to believe that Jesus knew his Father and trusted him with his life as he walked the path before him, step by step, one day at a time. It’s the kind of trust a child has for its father, even more so.
There is a song “Mary did you know?” that expresses those same thoughts. If she knew the end would she have submitted to the beginning? I ask if Jesus knew the pain and suffering he would go through would he still have walked the walk. I think he did know his purpose was not to condemn but to save the world from sin. He said so during his brief ministry. Yet I think it was revealed to him as he took each step completely trusting his Father.
There were lots of things happening during the time Jesus walked on the earth. Rebellions, uprisings, civil unrest, lying, cheating, stealing, murder, fornication, adultery – all the things we see today. Yet through it all Jesus had to remain focused not on his purpose, but on his Father. Had Jesus stepped back and looked at his situation he very well could have said “Beam me up Father. It’s too hard for me.” Yet he knew his Father’s will and remained faithful. Jesus is often quoted as saying life is like a race where only the committed and faithful get the prize. Jesus said he was the way, the truth and the life and nobody comes to the Father but through him.
Imagine Jesus walking to Jerusalem and the path goes through Golgotha and he sees men hanging on the despicable Roman crosses. Did he wonder if that could be him? Surely the Father would direct his steps, but even if it was the cross, if it was the Father’s will…….. Jesus had the full power of God at his disposal, yet he had the full power of Man in his life and he trusted in his Father completely. He spoke publicly as the Spirit gave utterance, yet remained silent when there was no need to speak. Oh that I could be more like Jesus.
We too are born with a purpose, to honor and glorify God with our very life. We are given tongues to speak, brains to think and hands and feet to carry the Good News that “GOD LOVES YOU” to every sinner we meet. We are to love God, each other and show kindness to everyone. We are told to pray for those that persecute or mistreat us just as Jesus did. With eternity at stake, how are we holding up our end of the bargain? – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Affirmative Action in the Supreme Court
When there is a vacancy on the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) both Congress and the President begin an agenda of filling the vacancy. According to the Constitution, it is the President with both the authority and responsibility to nominate a Supreme Court justice and the Senate is to confirm the nomination while the Chief Justice administers the Oath of Office.
When Justices Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett were nominated their confirmation hearings were broadcast publically so that everyone became politically divided. Instead of questioning each potential justice on where they stood constitutionally, they were caught up in tabloid-style allegations and treated unbecoming as one potentially becoming a Supreme Court justice.
The recent announced retirement of Justice Breyer has once again heated up the debate as President Biden is said to be considering a woman of color for the bench, which mocks the sanctity of the Court, is unlawful and entirely unbecoming to use gender, skin color or political affiliation for consideration rather than judicial experience, track record or standing on the constitutionality of cases to be brought before this esteemed body.
Do you remember hearing then Senator Kamala Harris calling Judge Amy Coney Barrett a liar during her confirmation hearing in 2020? That conduct from a member of Congress is totally unnecessary and absolutely uncalled for. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
America has not always had an Immigration Problem. The facts are that the immigration policy as it is in 2018 has major issues that can only be resolved by the United States Congress. In my opinion the Congress should remain in session while working diligently on a Comprehensive Immigration Reform solution to the issue of illegal immigration.
The United States continues to have the most open immigration policy in the world. It wasn’t until after the Civil War that certain states began passing immigration laws, and in 1875 the Supreme Court declared the regulation of immigration a federal responsibility. In 1891 the Immigration Service was established.
The period from 1900 to 1920 was known as the “Great Wave” where nearly 24M immigrants arrived in the U.S. After WWI congress addressed the increasing immigration flow with a new immigration policy, in the form of “The National-Origins Quota System” passed in 1921 and revised in 1924. Immigration was limited by nationality quotas based upon past U.S. census figures. In 1924 Congress created the U.S. Border Patrol within the Immigration Service.
Over the next 20 years there was very little immigration and actually dropped below zero during the Depression, and during and following WWII, because the 1920s national-origins system remained in place after being re-codified by Congress and combining all immigration laws into the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952. American agriculture continued to import seasonal labor from Mexico and the 1951 Bracero Program became a permanent agreement between the U.S. and Mexico.
In 1965 Congress replaced the national origins system with a preference system designed to unite immigrant families and attract skilled immigrants, changing national policy in effect since 1924. It seems that a majority of applicants for immigration visas was now coming from Asia and Latin America, rather than Europe. The preference system continued limiting the number of available immigration visas, but Congress still responded to refugees with special legislation. It was not until the Refugee Act of 1980 that the U.S. had a general policy governing the admission of refugees.
In 1986 Congress passed the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) with two major facets: Amnesty and Enforcement. The IRCA amnesty required aliens to have completed one of two provisions: continually reside in the U.S. since January 1982 OR completed 90 days of agricultural work between May 1985 and May 1986. Due to the estimated fraud involved in this program, there was offered a Late Amnesty which allowed those fighting denial to reapply. The IRCA contained provisions for enforcement to prevent illegal entry. The provisions prohibited the hiring and harboring of illegal aliens, but few resources were allocated for enforcement.
The 1990 Immigration Act modified and expanded the 1965 act while retaining family reunification as the major entry path and provides for the admission of immigrants from “under-represented” countries by a lottery system and mandated a study of immigration known as the “Jordan Commission”.
The U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform (Jordan Commission) ran from 1990 to 1997 and covered the many facets of the immigration policy, from the perception that the immigration policy “credibility yardstick: people who should get in, do get in; people who should not get in, are kept out; and people who are judged deportable are required to leave.”
The commission issued a series of four reports: The first report cited that enforcement was lax and needed improvement on the border and internally with an “automated employment verification system” for employers to distinguish between legal and illegal workers. The second report suggested immediate family members and skilled workers receive priority. The third report covered refugee and asylum issues. The fourth report reiterated the major points of the previous reports and the need for a new immigration policy. Few of these suggestions were implemented.
In 1996 Congress passed the Illegal Immigrant Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRIRA). The act mandated hiring more border patrol and INS agents. Penalties for illegal entry were increased and a border fence was planned for San Diego, while an automated employment verification pilot program was created and state police officers were allowed to enforce immigration law using the 287(g) program. Poor funding again hindered enforcement.
During the 1990s four smaller amnesties were passed. The first was section 245(i) amnesty, passed in 1994 which pardoned around 578,000 illegal aliens who were each fined $1,000. This amnesty was renewed in 1997 and again in 2000. The second was the Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act (NACARA) was passed in 1997 giving legal status to about 1M illegal aliens, mostly from Central America who had lived in the U.S. since 1995. In 1998 the Haitian Refugee Immigration and Fairness Act (HRIFA) passed to include Haitians. In 2000 the Legal Immigration Family Equity Act (LIFE) a mini-amnesty aimed at those illegal aliens who hoped to become green card holders through marriage, employment and other categories who still had a long line of people ahead of them. From 1994 to 2000 there were millions of hopeful legal immigrants waiting in line overseas.
After the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 perspectives on many issues changed including immigration. The attack exposed long-standing holes in our immigration system, including visa processing, internal enforcement and information sharing.
In 2006 immigration reform was again discussed in Congress with both houses producing their own conflicting bills. In December 2005 the House passed the Border Protection, Anti-terrorism, and Illegal Immigration Control Act of 2005 and was limited to enforcement on both the border and the interior. In May 2006 the Senate passed the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006 (CIRA) that would have given amnesty to a majority of illegal aliens already in the country as well as dramatically increased legal immigration. No compromise bill resulted.
In 2007 the Senate attempted to pass amnesty legislation in the form of the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007, which would have given amnesty to a large majority of illegal entrants in the country and significantly increased legal immigration and increased enforcement. Although the act had bipartisan support in the Senate it lacked public support and failed to obtain a passing closure vote.
In 2012 President Obama became tired of waiting on Congress and unconstitutionally used the power of Executive Order to create the Delayed Action on Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to allow a path to citizenship for certain illegal immigrants who are residing within the U.S. Congress neither condemned this action by the president, nor did they then attempt to fix the problems with the immigration system.
In 2018 President Trump decided to secure the U.S. southern border by building a physical barrier wall and enforce immigration laws to prevent unlawful entry and conduct deportation hearings to remove illegal immigrants.
At that time what was not being questioned was the fact that Mexico and her southern neighbors have not addressed or offered (as required by international law) asylum or refugee status to those who have been given a “pass” and facilitated to the U.S. – Mexico border.
The Department of Homeland Security, the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the U.S. Border Patrol are charged with enforcement of existing laws.
What played out in the media were vocal opposition to immigration enforcement by the very politicians with the power to correct through immigration reform the situation along our southern border.
This process became complicated when “legal experts” crossed over into Mexico to coach migrants on how to give “amnesty seeker” responses before immigration judges at the border. Those individuals face disbarment and criminal action for facilitating the circumventing of U.S. immigration laws.
The big cry became “separation of families” at the border which would only happen with unlawful entry – just make the right choice.
What happened to the introduction the “Emergency Legislation” proposed by Senator Ted Cruz that casts a glimmer of hope for immigrant families. – Double the number of Federal Immigration Judges from 375 to 750; Authorize new temporary shelters, with accommodations to keep families together; Mandate illegal immigrant families “Must Be Kept Together”, absent aggravated criminal conduct or harm to the children; & Provide for expedited processing and review of asylum cases, so that – within 14 days – those who meet the legal standards will be granted asylum, and those who do not will be immediately returned to their home countries?
In 2021 the migration “game” changed considerably when President Biden opened the southern border by allowing thousands of illegal migrants without documentation or without inoculations against the current virus pandemic or other infectious diseases to be given transportation, funds and housing in various cities across the nation in direct violation of U.S. Immigration laws, while continuing to enforce those laws at international airports and other ports of entry.
What is even more outrageous is the fact that on day one President Biden stopped the construction on the southern border wall, even though the material needed has already been paid for and crews had been stopped from conducting a work in progress. Even today there has been no outpouring of outrage from Congress or the public and no effort to stem the illegal flow of migrants who in many cases are being passed off as “refugees”.
What happens when the President of the United States, the Vice President of the United States and the United States Congress become federal law breakers instead of following the legislative process to change otherwise outdated or ineffective laws that just don’t work? Do we cast them into the dungeons for eternity or hold them fully accountable for their actions?
No we should expel them from elected office, charge them with violating immigration laws and bar them from ever holding elected office again! – I am the Real Truckmaster!
