The Real Progressive

 

According to dictionary.com the adjective form of progressive is favoring or advocating progress, change, improvement, or reform, as opposed to wishing to maintain things as they are, especially in political matters. The noun form of progressive is a person who is progressive or who favors progress or reform, especially in political matters. Now let that sink in for a moment.

 

Just based on the above definition one would think they just described President Donald J. Trump and his America First agenda of bringing progressive change to the American workforce (more American factories and thus more jobs). Strengthening the American economy through lower taxes and by demanding the nations of the world pay their own way in NATO and with reciprocating tariffs, for starters. Bringing back American pride that encourages one to “put your money where your mouth is” like that Inspector Tag #12 on a garment that tells who approved this piece of clothing. The Trump agenda has demanded right from day one that Congress conduct Comprehensive Immigration Reform and close any loopholes or blatant errors in the way we conduct immigration. The president has even suggested that Congress go back to the common sense way of conducting business that prevents the current “running in place” where nothing gets done or gets done quickly.

 

Within the House of Representatives there are well over 242 Congressional Caucuses and Committees or Taskforces that determine what gets done and approved by whom? One of the largest is the House’s Democratic Progressive Party Caucus chaired by none other than House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. After the 2016 election Congresswoman Pelosi basically declared her priority was to “Stop Trump”. After the mid-term election and her battle to regain her position as House Speaker that priority was intensified and transmitted through members of the House’s Progressive Caucus.

 

From what I gather in the press briefings, house committee proceedings and flare-ups within the House not only is the priority to “Stop Trump” as pushed by the old guard (Pelosi), but there is a very real and persistent threat to the old guard by some very vocal, but junior freshmen in the House like Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and others who challenge the status quo. I wouldn’t be surprised to see House Democrats voting on a new speaker in the very near future, say after the 2020 elections.

 

That brings another angle into focus virtually all of the Democratic challenging President Trump have pledged to take America back in time to the founding by promoting higher taxes, lots of free stuff and pushing for historical reform through the elimination of our history all together. Statues removed, streets renamed to remove the names of former slave owners. Interestingly enough one of those running for President comes from a family who owned slaves (but then that doesn’t count does it Sen. Harris)?

 

American’s favor immigration when it’s done properly and legally and wonder why Congress has not fixed this issue in the past 50 years or at least began anew after President Trump made his appeal after his inauguration.

 

American’s also favor abstinence or adoption instead of abortion. Abortion robs society of so much potential. Democratic candidates have all signed on to abortion, without considering the future citizens and future voters that are terminated in the abortion clinic. Approve of it or not, abortion is murder plain and simple.

 

The issue of higher taxes by all the Democratic candidates should cause every American to rethink who they should vote for. Raising taxes without curtailing spending is ludicrous and using higher taxes to pay for all the free stuff being promised to Democratic voters is beyond insane.

 

I’m not a political guru or a rocket scientist and not even a brain surgeon, but in my humble opinion the real progressive is President Donald J. Trump for whom results matter. I look forward to another term for POTUS 45. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Ode to Patriotism

 

As 4^th of July 2019 approaches and we celebrate Independence Day one might ask what are we independence from? It’s hard to know what has been taught in school classrooms as political correctness has so influenced every facet of our society.

 

History tells us that even before 1776 the colonies in the Americas were unsettled by sending taxes to the crown without the slightest bit of input or oversight as to the laws governing them. This led to a select group of men and women who decided that somebody had to do something. I’m sure any communications with the British government were routinely dismissed or ignored.

 

Even as these brave men and women began organizing a more official response there were many who were afraid (and rightly so) of confronting the might of the British empire who would see this as treason and everyone knows the punishment was forfeiture of all assets and death. As expected once the gauntlet had been laid down the British military response was overwhelming with troops being sent in mass to quell this civil unrest.

 

Many viewed this as a hopeless task, yet in spite of the hopelessness of the situation some went courting European countries for financial and military support against Great Britain. The colonists began assembling allies among the native Indian tribes and from European countries who were fed up with the British as well. It began as an untrained, untested under equipped force of hunters, farmers, bankers and all those in between taking on the Goliath of the largest, best equipped, and trained, battle tested military force on earth.

 

The conditions were brutal as were the British. Winters were hard, cold and the colonists suffered greatly, yet would not give up. Even the leadership of the colonists had been untested in battle up to this point and mistakes were made, by both sides I might add. It was not simply a fight to be fought for the sake of it. It was a fight for the dignity of a people wanting full control of their own government, not one far away. It was a fight for freedom.

 

The fighting was long and hard and in the end the colonists declared victory and the United States of America became an entirely new entity. Not just in name, but on papers signed by the founding fathers and ratified by the original 13 colonies. A Constitution, including the Bill of Rights was written that would establish the first and only Constitutional-Republic where the government worked FOR THE PEOPLE and BY THE PEOPLE and everyone was created equal by the Creator in Heaven.

 

There were a great many obstacles to overcome, yet with much debate and compromise this nation had been born. It was and is not now a perfect nation. Over time each obstacle has been tried and tested against the Constitution. Sometimes modifications were made to fix obvious flaws and to clarify the intent of this form of government. Today in 2019 the United States of America is still the only Constitutional-Republic form of government in existence. It literally is a beacon on the hill that inspire the world toward Democracy and Freedom.

 

Independence Day is more than fireworks, hot dogs, parades and football. It’s even more than mom’s apple pie, cake and ice cream. Americans for generations to come will be able enjoy the freedom fought for so many times since the foundation of this nation.

 

As you gather your family together this holiday season, take a moment to tell them about George Washington, Paul Revere, John Paul Jones and others like Benjamin Franklin and Francis Marion who put their lives on the line for freedom, for you and for me. Tell them about the Civil War, World War I and II, Korea, Vietnam, Somalia, Panama, Iraq and Afghanistan where Americans before them have laid down their lives in defense of freedom. Take a moment to pray for our men and women in harm’s way today as they serve around the globe for the cause of Freedom. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

The Politicization of America

 

If you’ve been following along with my blogs you should be able to see that my intent is not to ridicule or demean anyone but to stimulate that gray matter between the ears of my readers.

 

Like many of you I detest this Politicization of America that has overtaken normal common sense on a daily basis. As with each national election things tend to heat up over manufactured crises and events designed to pull attention away from the real problems we face as a nation.

 

To me it boils down to Honor and Respect for God, our nation’s leader and for the family. When we teach our children to honor God, obey his word and to love our neighbor as ourselves we are setting the stage for a peaceful life where God will provide for our needs.

 

Over time our country has booted God out of all facets of public life and replaced him with a host of gods and idols. We have collectively chosen to shy away from talking about anything religious unless it conforms to one of the many idols society has accepted.

 

It has become acceptable to bully and publicly shame others while declaring it is wrong to bully. We strongly stand for the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as proclaimed in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the founding documents of our nation, unless it interferes with someone else’s happiness or what they want to do.

 

This includes the intentional murder of babies in the name of a woman’s right to choose. That has never been God’s intention, or his desire for even one of these little ones whom HE has created for a specific purpose in life.

 

What has really become acceptable is to publicly come out against our nation, while cashing our entitlement checks at the bank of never ending currency. Our “national” pride has been swallowed up by political correctness. We proudly wear “USA” as a fashion statement, but reject anything positive about this nation so many have shown outright distain. Our national sports teams are national in name only.

 

Like it or not the office of the President of the United States is to be respected and Donald J. Trump is our president. I will not sit by while someone continues to spread lies and distorted “truths” about the one whom God has placed in this important office of leading our nation. There has never been a president like him.

 

Never has one man assessed the situation of America, determined a course of action to bring about change that positively affects every single American citizen, and had to literally fight both the Congress and the media in order to bring about this change. So you don’t like his mannerisms, his “braggadociosness” or his use of Twitter or the rallies he uses to get his message out to the people?

 

So what? That is his style so get over it already.

 

Politically speaking Donald J. Trump is not your normal politician. He isn’t doing this for the money, fame or exposure to the media. He had all that and more as a private citizen. He is working to make America better, something others have only alluded to in order to get political votes.

 

There are many who want to “Stop Trump” anyway possible. The political contenders have clearly said that is their goal. They have no plan to make America great, but to take the very lifeblood of America and give to a government which has proven its inability to provide for the safety and security of the nation. I call that lunacy.

 

If a politician feels so strongly about their ability to bring positive change to America I challenge them to resign their office, position or political power and place all their efforts into a viable plan of their own. To run the race for the presidency without an expectation of success is ludicrous. To keep their position as their “plan B” shows their insincerity and/or inability to do what they promise politically.

 

If you’re tired of the politics stop feeding into the frenzy and stop buying the misinformation that is being feed to you.  Look around at the economy. Are there more jobs? Are less people using public assistance than in the past? What about the stock market? Is our military becoming stronger, newer equipment and assets?

 

On the world stage have our allies abandoned the United States because of President Trump? The answer is “No”! Have our adversaries taken notice of our intentions to place America first? The answer is a resounding “Yes”!

 

Looking past all the smoke and mirrors one will see that results matter. While others want to do things fast, President Trump has said that doing it right is more important than speed, as he deals with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

 

The world is in a constant state of change and the United States must be aware of this change as it happens and be prepared for any contingency. This includes the recent assault upon the sovereignty of the nation by the massive influx of migrants along the southern border. Immigration is important for every nation. Immigrants are the lifeblood of our nation, yet illegal immigration takes away from the resources of our nation and demonstrates the intent of those who illegally cross into the country.

 

It is not humane to house illegals while tripping over homelessness on the streets of America. It is not humane to allow subhuman conditions of living on the streets of our cities, turning them into third world communities without regard to the laws of our land. And it is not humane to look the other way when migrants transit any nation with the sole intent of disobeying the immigration laws of any nation.

 

When Americans begin rationalizing lawlessness as a human condition to be accepted, rather than taking steps to bring law and order out of chaos it is a sad state of affairs and speaks volumes for those who just sit around and criticize. Evil abounds when good men do nothing.

 

President Donald Trump is but one man. He has chosen to do what he can about what he sees wrong in America and has pledged to Make America Great Again. His vision has a plan, a means to an end, a way forward and it takes hard work and total commitment to make that vision a reality. I stand with President Trump! – I am the Real Truckmaster!

On The Great Democratic 2019 Debates

 

America is not a perfect country, and rather than becoming a democracy as some claim, or just another republic as we see in the world today, by design the United States of America is a Constitutional-Republic.  Our very foundation has established the Constitution as the Rule of Law for the nation.

 

Our nation and its Constitution have been under attack both from outside entities and from within our own government. Not only do we have a very real human rights issue at our southern border with Mexico, but we have national crisis coming from many fronts, international terrorism, trade wars, and theft of national treasurers and resources as well as national security issues. Our very economy has been hammered down on the verge of collapse. Our military has been reduced to the point of becoming inefficient with outdated equipment, over taxed personnel resources and as with any army the support of the people at home is all important. On the home front our public educational system is ineffective at educating the nation’s youth. Many leave school without a diploma, and/or without the skills necessary to become successful independent members of our society. Political Correctness has replaced common sense. Mass shootings envelope our schools, churches and public squares. Gun violence is at an all-time high in many areas.

 

Many of the 2020 presidential candidates are current and former legislators or governors and are well versed on the issues which threaten our nation’s very existence.

 

With all that being said I would have expected every presidential debate to be about fixing what is wrong in our nation. How are we going forward going to make a better nation for our children and grandchildren? Is there a plan? How do we “get there” from here? Is it sustainable? Which candidate has American interests at heart?

 

From the outtakes of the Democratic 2019 Debates this is what I’m seeing from virtually every candidate is supporting the right to murder through abortion America’s future and continue using taxpayer dollars to fund them.

 

Candidates choose to take care of illegals, more than food, shelter and clothing – shield them from prosecution and deportation for breaking US Immigration Laws, provide a living allowance and tuition free education.

 

Candidates are verbalizing increasing taxes on the other guy – the super-rich and the middle class. The redistribution of wealth from those who can and do work, to those who choose not to work and providing social security benefits to those who have not paid into social security.

 

Candidates encourage sanctuary cities and states while shielding law breakers from federal agents yet want to confiscate lawful gun ownership a clear violation of the US Constitution.

 

Candidates want to lower the voting age to 16 and to legalize non-US citizens to vote in elections another violation of the US Constitution.

 

In short rather than tackle the national security and safety issues plaguing American cities and American citizens, the single most priority of every candidate is simply to “Stop Trump” by any means.

 

Americans are much too smart than to allow politicians and/or the media to fool them into thinking that no jobs and higher taxes combined with open borders and massive public assistance is the way to fix anything and taking away guns disarms citizens and prevents them from defending themselves or their families from criminals who chose to act when there is little or no resistance.

 

Based on their own words, deeds and actions there is no redeeming value to voting for any Democratic Candidate. Their agenda is petty and vindictive in nature placing nothing ahead of getting the nomination. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

An Undercurrent of Mounting Political Pressure in America

 

The world in which we live seems to be going through a series of changes that are akin to the forming of a pack of wild wolves that roam their territory in search of prey, once found, cornered are attacked by the entire pack in a feeding frenzy until the kill has been made. In the hierarchy of the pack the Alpha Male has first choice consuming his fill. Lessor males and females anxiously await their turn and fight each other for dominance and the right to their fair share. The scraps go to the rest.

 

There is an undercurrent of mounting political pressure in America that changes the face of humanity before our eyes just as absolute corruption corrupts absolutely and the insanity of politics is complete and total madness. It is the way of gangs, groups and political entities. The leader leads and the followers follow until in the midst of a feeding frenzy as mob rule overtakes normal common sense.

 

In American politics we have two major political parties Democrats and Republicans. They operate very differently, but have ultimately the same end game. The Democratic Party is the party “of the people” in rhetoric only. They use intimidation tactics, the lure of free stuff and threats to keep voters engaged and on the voter rolls. The Republican Party is the party “protecting the rights of the people” while defending the Constitution against assaults from domestic and international terrorists. They appeal to the people to defend their rights, stand for the rule of law and fight against lawlessness. How different are their messages, yet many would rather die than switch, even when faced with insane and irrational thoughts from the left.

 

Maybe we should take a look at definitions to clearly see whether certain political trains of thought are still on the track at all. According to several differing online sources we will examine the definition of insanity.

 

According to the Oxford Dictionary – Insanity is a state of being seriously mentally ill; madness; mental illness; mental disorder; mental derangement; insaneness; dementia; lunacy; instability; unsoundness of mind; loss of reason; delirium; hysteria; mania; or craziness.

 

According to Merriam- Webster – Insanity is a severely disordered state of the mind usually occurring as a specific disorder; unsoundness of mind or lack of the ability to understand that prevents one from having the mental capacity required by law to enter into a particular relationship, status, or transaction or that releases one from criminal or civil responsibility; extreme folly; utterly foolish or unreasonable.

 

According to Merriam- Webster – Insane is exhibiting a severely disordered state of mind: affected with mental illness; affected with insanity; unable to think in a clear or sensible way; crazy insane with jealousy.

 

According to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia – Insanity is madness or craziness that describe a spectrum of individual and group behaviors that are characterized by certain abnormal mental or behavioral patterns. Insanity can be manifest as violations of social norms, including a person or persons becoming a danger to themselves or to other people.

 

According to Dictionary.com – In contemporary usage, the term insanity is an informal, un-scientific term denoting “mental instability”; In English, the word “sane” derives from the Latin adjective sanus meaning “healthy”.  Juvenal’s phrase mens sana in corpore sano is often translated to mean a “healthy mind in a healthy body”.  From this perspective, insanity can be considered as poor health of the mind, not necessarily of the brain as an organ (although that can affect mental health), but rather refers to defective function of mental processes such as reasoning.

 

A more informal use of the term insanity is to denote something or someone considered highly unique, passionate or extreme, including in a positive sense. The term may also be used as an attempt to discredit or criticize particular ideas, beliefs, principles, desires, personal feelings, attitudes, or their proponents, such as in politics and religion. Thecondition of being insane; a derangement of themind: Legally – suchunsoundness of mind as freesonefromlegalresponsibility, as forcommitting a crime, or as signalsone’slack of legalcapacity, as forenteringinto a contractualagreement.

Psychosis – extreme foolishness; folly; senselessness; foolhardiness; a foolish or senseless action, policy, statement, etc.

 

I know that’s a lot to digest but in today’s political climate what is coming across in an attempt to appeal to voters are an entire series of things from Abortion is a woman’s reproductive choice; Free medical, housing, education, and food for those who come here illegally and they have the right to vote; Sanctuary cities and states are protecting illegals; Gender is what one feels they are; Immigration is a right; Upholding US law is unconstitutional; and the biggie is Trump is in a cover up by declassifying documents related to the Mueller investigation after battling almost 3 years of false allegations of Russian Collusion.

 

Is it not time to take a step back and ask what happened to the safety and security of the American people and the sovereignty of the United States of America? The upcoming 2020 Presidential Election will be the most decisive election in American history. With all the blatant corruption in the US Congress unless voters see through the smoke and mirrors and begin voting corrupt officials out of office nothing will substantially improve until political correctness is abolished completely! – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Why the Prolonged Push for Impeachment?

 

Have you ever wondered about that or is it just me? We’ve been hearing it for the past 2 plus years and it started up in earnest just before the mid-term elections. It’s like the neighbors kid out in the garage making music with a single drum……bam…..bam…..bam……bam over and over and over until you either become sensitized to it or call the cops.

 

So why in 2019 is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi still in the garage with that drum? And why is Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer acting as her wingman? Is there some other agenda being “covered up” and we just can’t see it?

 

Let’s take a step back and relook at certain events from our most recent past. After President Trump was elected he held the infamous January meeting with congressional leaders to discuss some of the president’s important issues and then House Minority Leader Pelosi made an odd comment about Trump not realizing how much importance she brings to this meeting. That was just before Trump cancelled the meeting.

 

Ever since then Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader Schumer have led the charge of the light-headed brigade in their ongoing feud against President Trump. They have repeatedly threatened Trump with impeachment, over and over and over again and again. So much so that after the 2018 mid-term elections and Pelosi became House Speaker her call became louder and more frequent. Some might even call it an obsession.

 

Today I’ve had face-to-face conversions with one of my Republican friends and one of my Democratic friends and in each case the subject of impeachment has come up. As we discussed the pros and cons of it a new revelation became apparent.

 

It is my belief that the reason that House Speaker Pelosi who is #3 in the line of succession has been so adamant about not only impeaching the President, but also the Vice President. Guess where that would put her……….in the White House! Yup and just as surely as that would happen guess who would be picked to be her Vice President – Chucky Schumer. Now wouldn’t that be a hoot.

 

That would do two things immediately, first the House Democrats would have to select another speaker and guess who recently “filled in” for madam speaker – AOC! Also the Senate Democrats would have to select another Minority Leader and maybe Cory Booker is looking to apply for that job or maybe Kamala Harris? But they both have their eyes on the prize of White House occupancy.

 

I’m thinking on the outside chance of that happening, the nation would sink faster than the Titanic in the middle of the Atlantic.

 

Or

 

Congress could quit all the waste and abuse of endless investigations and join the President in a bi-partisan effort to fix what ails the nation and the American citizens. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
