The U.S. government has blown almost $90 million on a doomed project to IMPORT DEMOCRAT VOTERS
The U.S. government has blown almost $90 million on a doomed project to IMPORT DEMOCRAT VOTERS
...So far, the program has helped between zero and 60 women, according to a federal audit. Let’s take the most optimistic extreme and say it helped 60 women find jobs or get promoted.
That comes to $1,500,000 per Afghan woman supposedly helped with the money spent so far. https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/audits/SIGAR-18-69-AR.pdf
"Government Wasted $90 Million On a Few Dozen Afghan Women ($1.5 Million per Afghan Woman) To help Them Supposedly Find Jobs... and A Good Portion Went To A Clinton “Development” Company
Allow me to translate: The U.S. government has blown almost $90 million on a doomed project to IMPORT DEMOCRAT VOTERS... No price is too high for Democrats buying future votes.

We would enjoy a significantly higher standard of living if we stopped tolerating a government that arrogantly throws our money to the four winds and then wants more."

Yes, The Deep State Is Real — And Working To Undermine Our Nation | Investor's Business Daily:
No, what they're really worried about is that Nunes is right. There are highly questionable connections between officials in the Justice Department, FBI, CIA and Hillary Clinton campaign. They suggest that U.S. officials actively used their offices and taxpayer funds to sabotage Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. If so, it's a criminal conspiracy. People should go to prison.
Yet, shockingly, while Trump ordered the "immediate declassification" of the materials, the Deep State has other ideas. Justice, the FBI and the National Intelligence director's office are slow-walking the release. They plan to redact the documents, despite Trump's lawful order.

No, Tax Cuts Are Not Driving Deficits — It's The Spending, Stupid | Investor's Business Daily
No, Tax Cuts Are Not Driving Deficits — It's The Spending, Stupid | Investor's Business Daily
"Red Ink: Are President Trump's massive tax cuts what's driving federal deficits upward.
Everyone says so.
But, it's not true.
It's just a way for lawmakers to distract the public while they crank up the spending machine.
Just like the Senate did this week.
Earlier this week, Trump's top economic advisor, Larry Kudlow, gave a talk at the Economic Club of New York in which he said that tax cuts aren't to blame for deficits.
"People are quick to blame deficits on tax cuts, but I don't buy that," he said.
"The gap is principally spending too much."
You could almost hear the jaws dropping among the Washington pundits and budget "experts."
How could Kudlow make such a ludicrous claim?..."

Democrats Go Full Stalin on Kavanaugh and Declassification | Roger L. Simon
Democrats Go Full Stalin on Kavanaugh and Declassification | Roger L. Simon:
But in the grand tradition of Stalin and Beria, it is our FBI that leads the pack, and the man whose crime they wished to "show" is President Trump. Unfortunately, the tables have turned and the crime stoppers are about to be unmasked as the criminals (cf. Norman Mailer).
Enter Trump's call for the declassification of the FISA documents and related material, including all the text messages concerning Russia, that has been stonewalled by the FBI and DOJ for over a year, making the constitutionally mandated oversight by congressional committees nigh impossible.

China's plan for conquest of the South Pacific | Asia Times
"Beijing’s militarization of islands and features it claims in the South China Sea is by now widely seen as a threat to freedom of navigation in one of the world’s most strategically important waterways.
What’s gone less noticed, however, is how Beijing could use those emerging forward bases to project power into the South Pacific, where critics say Beijing harbors “neo-colonial” ambitions and the United States maintains crucial naval and air force bases on Guam.
A Pentagon report released last month that said China was likely training for air strikes against US and allied targets will have brought China’s emerging power projection capabilities into the Pacific into stark and urgent relief among policymakers in Washington..."

Mother arrested for taking phone away from teenage daughter | abc7.com:
"HUDSONVILLE, Mich. -- A Michigan mother arrested after stealing her teen daughter's cell phone as a form of discipline has been vindicated.
The Ottawa County prosecutor dismissed the charges against the local woman on Tuesday. Questions remain, however, as to why she was arrested in the first place.
"I would like answers on why it got so far and how it got this far where this happened within my home. I'm disciplining my child, then I'm being the one handcuffed," Jodie May told WOOD-TV.
May was nursing her 4-week-old baby the day before Mother's Day when a deputy knocked on her door, telling her she'd be arrested on a misdemeanor theft charge.
"He had told me that he was going to arrest me, and I asked him if I could turn myself in on that Monday by myself, that I had a new baby.
She wasn't taking the bottle yet," she said.
Her proposals weren't accepted.
She was arrested and taken to a holding cell before being released two hours later on a $200 bond..."

Eviscerating Kavanaugh: Sen. Feinstein, have you no sense of decency? - Chicago Tribune
Eviscerating Kavanaugh: Sen. Feinstein, have you no sense of decency? - Chicago Tribune:
Decency was once an important feature of the Democratic Party’s story. Long before Bork became a verb, long before Clarence Thomas was dragged through the mud because a conservative black man proved a profound threat to Democrats, the party held fast to the notion of decency.
A lack of decency was something to be feared, something to be avoided for the health of the country.
