Nightmarish Expectations

By Tammy Derouin

With his final speech to the United Nations, our resident Destroyer in Chief did not miss yet another opportunity to shame the United States and embarrass the citizens.  I feel he has truly enjoyed undermining our country for these past eight turbulent years. 

The executive used the world stage to promote his propaganda.  It didn’t take long, paragraph number two to be exact, for head scratching, head shaking and a look of disbelief to carry me through thirteen pages of rhetoric.  As expected, he pointed his finger and criticized others as he carries out or seeks to engage in the same tactics.  The visual equivalent of this speech would be a cow pasture. What’s worse is that so many Americans have fallen for the deception; blindly traveling the road of deceit.   

His speech began with fairy tales and ended with nightmarish expectations. When did we return the global economy to economic growth?  Did we take away terrorist safe havens?  Seems to me that there’s an awfully lot of open borders throughout the world.  Maybe he meant transference of terrorist safe havens.  Apparently, we resolved the Iranian nuclear matter by way of diplomacy.  Is that what they’re calling it?  To me it looked like we rolled over and got bulldozed. 

That’s the magical hocus-pocus of the Left.....

"MUSKEGON COUNTY, MI -- Muskegon County officials are tapping into the county's savings for a third year in a row to try to make ends meet.
The Muskegon County Board of Commissioners passed the 2017 budget Tuesday, Sept. 27 with a $627,626 shortfall.
Even with 16 county positions removed, 12 more positions left vacant and three people laid off, county officials were not able to balance expenditures and revenues. 
Of those 16 positions, seven are seasonal marine officers for the Sheriff's Office.
...The budget for fiscal year 2017 goes into effect Saturday, Oct. 1.
Dick said the county anticipates another shortfall, this time an amount of $1.1 million, to be drawn from the reserves when the current fiscal year comes to a close Friday..."

Female student attacked for wearing Trump hat on campus

Female student attacked for wearing Trump hat on campus: 

• A female member of the Gustavus College Republicans was verbally assaulted by a male student for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat shortly before Monday night’s debate.
• According to a statement from the CRs, the male student had to be restrained at one point when he attempted to charge at the female student in fury.
• A report has been filed with campus security, and the college is currently investigating the altercation before deciding upon a response.

The incident took place on campus, right before the first presidential debate began, according to a press release put out by the Minnesota College Republicans.
“No one deserves to feel unsafe for wearing a Trump hat, so it’s sad that it has to come to this.”    
The victim of the assault has chosen to remain anonymous, saying that she feels unsafe and threatened, and has even resorted to asking campus security to escort her around the college. 
While the perpetrator of the assault has not been publicly identified, he is reportedly a male student at Gustavus College.
“She was walking around bothering no one by wearing a Trump hat, she didn’t deserve this and there’s no way that this should’ve happened,” Minnesota Federation of College Republican Chair Amanda Peterson told Campus Reform. 
“I wish this was a surprise to me, but it’s not, it’s no secret that college students with conservative leaning viewpoints aren’t strangers to this type of thing on campus.”"

"Why in the hell do we still support Saudi Arabia? We don’t need their oil… we would make do. The majority of the 9/11 terrorists came from Saudi Arabia, as does the Bin Laden family.

Get Your Flu Shot in the Morning

Get Your Flu Shot in the Morning - The New York Times:
"There may be a simple and cost-free way to improve the effectiveness of the flu vaccine: 
Get vaccinated in the morning instead of the afternoon.
British researchers randomized 276 men and women over 65 to get their flu shot either from 9 to 11 in the morning or 3 to 5 in the afternoon.
The participants filled out questionnaires to assess health behaviors and socioeconomic status, gave a blood sample, and were given the standard trivalent flu vaccine.
The study is in the journal Vaccine.
A month later they returned to give another blood sample.
The researchers then compared anti-influenza antibodies in the two samples to measure the effect.
After controlling for differences in income, smoking, alcohol consumption, sleep duration and other health and behavioral characteristics, they found that for two of the three influenza strains contained in the vaccine, the response was significantly stronger in those vaccinated in the morning. 
For the third strain, morning or afternoon vaccination made no difference..."

Getting a flu shot? It may be better to wait

Getting a flu shot? It may be better to wait - CNN.com:
"An early flu shot is better than no flu shot at all. But the science is mixed when it comes to how long a flu shot promoted and given during the waning days of summer will provide optimal protection, especially because flu season generally peaks in mid-winter or beyond.
Experts are divided on how patients should respond to such offers.
"If you're over 65, don't get the flu vaccine in September. 
Or August. It's a marketing scheme," said Laura Haynes, an immunologist at the University of Connecticut Center on Aging.
That's because a combination of factors makes it more difficult for the immune systems of people older than age 65 to respond to the vaccination in the first place. 
And its protective effects may wear off faster for this age group than it does for young people.
When is the best time to vaccinate?
It's a question even doctors have..."

ICYMI: President Obama's Oct. 1 Internet Handover Draws Broad Opposition | Ted Cruz | U.S. Senator for Texas:

"WASHINGTON, D.C. – Unless Congress acts this week, President Obama will cede U.S. oversight of the Internet to ICANN, an international organization composed of multinational corporations and more than 160 foreign countries, including Russia, China, and Iran. The president’s radical proposal, scheduled to take effect on October 1, jeopardizes free speech online and has been widely denounced by conservative and grassroots leaders and Members of Congress. "

If you work for a county or city, prepare for tough times!-----Nearly 20 jobs cut to fix Montcalm Co. budget crisis

Nearly 20 jobs cut to fix Montcalm Co. budget crisis | Fox17:
"MONTCALM COUNTY, Mich. - Commissioners in Montcalm County are cutting nearly 20 jobs in hopes of solving a looming county-wide budget crisis.
Monday, commissioners voted on a new budget meant to get them back on track.
$1.5 Million dollars in cuts are needed in order to meet their bottom line, which means roughly 20 people will lose their jobs in order to balance a budget with a general fund that's been operating in the red for the past 8 years.
...The cuts come after revelations that expenses for the county had been outpacing revenue by an average of $2 million annually since 2012.
It's something commissioners say won't happen again.
"This didn’t all fall on the controller's office, there were checks and balances that weren’t in place," said Commissioner Patrick Carr.
"I’m confident that we’ve got the right people in place, the right protocols that we’ve adopted that this won’t happen again."...

'Dramatic slowing' seen in global trade, as rhetoric rises

'Dramatic slowing' seen in global trade, as rhetoric rises:
"GENEVA (AP) — Trade, that lifeblood of the world economy, is growing at its slowest rate in seven years and could falter even more should anti-globalization sentiment encourage governments to throw up more barriers.
That's the verdict from the World Trade Organization, which dramatically slashed its forecast for trade growth this year by about a third to its lowest rate since 2009, when the global economy was mired in recession in the wake of the financial crisis.
...Lower economic growth and trade in developing countries like China and Brazil as well as a deceleration in imports in North America lay at the heart of the sharp downgrade.
If the WTO's forecast comes true, it will be the first time in 15 years that global trade grows more slowly than the world economy, which it expects to expand by 2.2 percent.
..."We need to make sure that this does not translate into misguided policies that could make the situation much worse," he added, referring to job creation and economic growth."

Trump, Lester Holt Lock Horns About The Media, Iraq War

Trump, Lester Holt Lock Horns About The Media, Iraq War | The Daily Caller:
"Donald Trump clashed with moderator Lester Holt at Monday’s presidential debate, stating that Holt’s claim that he supported the Iraq War was “nonsense” created by the mainstream media and Hillary Clinton’s own campaign.
“You had supported the war in Iraq,” Holt posed to Trump.
“I did not support the war in Iraq,” Trump shot back. “That is a mainstream media nonsense put out by her, because she frankly, I think the best person in her campaign is mainstream media.”
“My question,” Holt asserted before being cut off a second time.
“Would you like to hear? I was against the war, wait a minute,” the Republican nominee continued. “I was against the war in Iraq. just so you put it out.”
“The record shows otherwise,” countered the debate moderator.
“It does not show that,” Trump finally responded. “The record shows that I’m right. when i did an interview with Howard Stern, very lightly, first time anybody’s asked me about that, and I said who knows.”
“I then did an interview with Neil Cavuto. I then talked to Sean Hannity — everyone refuses to call Sean Hannity — had numerous conversations with Sean Hannity at Fox, and he called me the other day, and I spoke to him about it. He said you were totally against the war because he was for the war.”"

"WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, a broad coalition of 77 national security, cybersecurity, and industry leaders sent a letter to Secretary of Defense Ash Carter and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Joseph Dunford calling on the top military officials to intervene in opposition to President Obama’s radical proposal to relinquish American guardianship of the Internet and give it to foreign corporations and countries, including Russia, China, and Iran. This letter follows a joint statement issued by 10 Republican senators urging Democratic senators to oppose the Obama administration’s proposed Internet handover set to take place on October 1."

Obama Email Alias to Clinton Is Why FBI Didn’t Prosecute Hillary | National Review

Obama Email Alias to Clinton Is Why FBI Didn’t Prosecute Hillary | National Review:

"Still, the difference in scale is not a difference in kind. In terms of the federal laws that criminalize mishandling of classified information, Obama not only engaged in the same type of misconduct Clinton did; he engaged in it with Clinton. It would not have been possible for the Justice Department to prosecute Clinton for her offense without its becoming painfully apparent that 1) Obama, too, had done everything necessary to commit a violation of federal law, and 2) the communications between Obama and Clinton were highly relevant evidence."

Daughter of democrat senator Manchin. Her mom made millions as head of the National Association of State Boards of Education (NASB) to boost her daughter’s EpiPen sales--Just thought you should know-----Mylan CEO misled lawmakers about EpiPen profits—they’re 66% higher

Mylan CEO misled lawmakers about EpiPen profits—they’re 66% higher | Ars Technica:
"The EpiPen profit figures that Heather Bresch, CEO of EpiPen maker Mylan, Inc., proudly displayed on a giant chart to the seething House Oversight and Government Reform Committee last week were misleading at best and a flat-out lie at worst, according to a filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
EpiPen maker CEO to seething lawmakers: We’re doing the world a favor
Bresch, who was called before the committee to explain steep price hikes of the life-saving devices, insisted that the company only makes $100 profit per two-pack of EpiPens.
The list price for such a two pack now stands at $608.
However, back in 2007, before Mylan bought the rights to the pens and raised the price 15 times, an EpiPen was priced at around just $50.
In her testimony, Bresch blamed the puzzlingly small profit on undefined costs and America’s complicated healthcare system.
The committee, however, didn’t buy that—and rightly so.
It turns out that the $100 profit figure was calculated by applying a 37.5 percent tax rate, which the company likely doesn’t pay.
And the post-tax product was actually incorrect—it should have been $104 per two pack.
So, the real, pre-tax profit from an EpiPen two pack is $166, a 66 percent increase from what Bresch told Congress..."

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — A group of protesters stormed into a presidential debate viewing party hosted by conservative students at the University of Michigan on Monday night, banging on drums and shouting at viewers as they paraded around the room, prompting at least one skirmish.

The five anti-Trump protesters who invaded the campus auditorium where the debate was projected onto a large, movie-sized screen repeatedly shouted “Donald Trump is racist!” while one, dressed as Jesus, banged incessantly on some type of drum. The demonstrators’ organizational affiliation is unknown.

According to a video taken during the incident, one of the female protesters held a sign stating: “Hitler: Make Germany great again, Trump’s America.”

Immigration Officials Endorse Trump Ahead Of Debate | The Daily Caller

Immigration Officials Endorse Trump Ahead Of Debate | The Daily Caller:

"Clinton has pledged to uphold and even expand Obama’s executive orders on immigration, and wants to grant citizenship to the vast majority of illegal immigrants already in the country. She would also dramatically expand the number of immigrants who come to the country legally, at a time when those levels are on track to exceed historical precedent in both size and proportion of the population."

I don't know if this is true. But I do know we'd never see it in the liberal media if it was----- Hillary’s TOP Donor Country Just Auctioned Off ISIS Sex Slaves…

Hillary’s TOP Donor Country Just Auctioned Off ISIS Sex Slaves… | John Hawkins' Right Wing News
Why in the hell do we still support Saudi Arabia? We don’t need their oil… we would make do. The majority of the 9/11 terrorists came from Saudi Arabia, as does the Bin Laden family. The Saudi deputy crown prince told reporters in June the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has funded 20% of Hillary Clinton’s campaign. She’s taking money from a stone cold enemy and that’s not the only one by any means. You do not consort or take money from those who intend to destroy your country… period. That goes for Middle Eastern countries such as Saudi Arabia, Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. It also includes any dictatorship or communist strongman. We never learn our lesson, do we?

Now it comes to light that Saudi Arabia is selling ISIS sex slaves off to the highest bidder at public auctions. Iraqis, Syrians, Saudis and WESTERNERS all bought slaves at the auction. This is monstrous and going on right out in the open. It should be stopped cold… whatever it takes. Britain needs to stop selling the Saudis weapons and we need to pull our politicians out of the Saudi bedroom and back home. They are killing us and enslaving women and children. How can we silently stand by while this evil goes on?

From Jihad Watch:

It isn’t news that the Islamic State has long been abusing and trafficking sex slaves – especially Yazidi girls – but it has been now discovered that the sex slaves of IS are being “sold in horrifying auctions to UK ally Saudi Arabia.”

An eyewitness reported:

Dozens of women were being held in a large room, and it was not only Iraqis and Syrians trading women but also Saudis and Westerners, whose actual nationality was not clear.

Western women have also been reported to be among the victims in keeping with the Islamic State’s practice of enslaving kafir women:

The Islamic State’s human trafficking operation includes enslaving women who they consider to be ‘kafir’, non-Muslim people like Yazidis and Christians, before selling them for money. The depraved thugs are also involved in the radicalisation of young women all over the world and try to tempt them to come to their caliphate with false promises of wealth, marriage and forgiveness of sin.

As these women are ‘rescued’ from ISIS, they are not being given freedom. 

They are being sold on the auction block into a hellish existence.

These are the people that Hillary Clinton takes money from, makes deals with and hobnobs with. Monsters of a feather.

I have said for a long time, not only are the Saudis sponsoring ISIS, so are the Russians. We are being played. Our own president is complicit. Let’s not elect another corrupt demon who cares nothing of women and children being sold to rapists. After all, Hillary Clinton is married to one.
