Attorney General Jeff Sessions said.

“We are not going to let this country be invaded!

We will not be stampeded!

We will not capitulate to lawlessness!

This is NOT business as usual.

This is the Trump era!," the Attorney General said.

Donald Trump Orders Justice Department to Investigate obuma Surveillance.

 5/20/18 

President Donald J. Trump announced his decision to demand an official investigation of former resident barry  obuma’s administration on Sunday for infiltrating or surveilling his presidential campaign for political reasons.

 “I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes – and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the obuma Administration!” Trump wrote on Twitter on Sunday afternoon.

 Trump frequently blames investigations of his campaign on obuma, suggesting that politically motivated investigators were unfairly targeting his campaign.

 He spent most of Sunday morning sharing his thoughts on Twitter about the ongoing Russia investigation, suggesting that the ongoing “witch hunt” was out of control. “Things are really getting ridiculous,” Trump wrote, noting that so far there was no collusion found by special investigators.

 He criticized Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team as “13 Angry and heavily conflicted Democrats” who were part of the obma administration.

 “STOP!” he wrote. “They have found no collusion with Russia, No obstruction!”

Trump again redirected the continuing investigation towards failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, Democrats, Tony Podesta, the DNC, and politically biased FBI officials.

 “Republicans and real Americans should start getting tough on this Scam,” he wrote

Breaking News; Conservative Pioneer Dies.
  5/21/18 GOP Presidential Staff
Faith Whittlesey, President Ronald Reagan’s ambassador to Switzerland, who helped popularize the message of the “Reagan Revolution” and advocated for a staunch, traditional conservatism for decades, passed away Monday at 79.
  Whittlesey, lately of Del Ray Beach, Florida, succumbed to a long bout with cancer in Washington, DC, surrounded by family and friends.
  Born in 1939 in Jersey City, New Jersey, where her father worked as a railroad billing clerk, she rose to become an advisor — and friend — of government and corporate leaders around the world in the complex arenas of political intelligence and strategy as well a pioneering woman in the legal profession and the conservative movement. She graduated from the University of Pennsylvania Law School in 1963 and clerked with Judge Francis Van Dusen of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania when, according to her biographer, historian Thomas Carty, 95% of judges and lawyers were men.
  At odds with left-wing feminists for much of her career, she is nevertheless credited with first popularizing the aphorism that 'Ginger Rodgers did everything Fred Astaire did' -- “backwards and in high heels.”

Faith Whittlesey, President Ronald Reagan’s ambassador to Switzerland, who helped popularize the message of the “Reagan Revolution” and advocated for a staunch, traditional conservatism for decades, passed away Monday at 79.
Whittlesey, lately of Delray Beach, Florida, succumbed to a long bout with cancer in Washington, DC, surrounded by family and friends.
  In 1975, she left Harrisburg and entered local politics, running on a reform ticket for the Delaware County Council. This key county in eastern Pennsylvania then had a population of about 600,000.
 She won in an upset and subsequently served alternately as chairman and vice chairman until 1979. In 1978, she ran in the Republican primary for Lieutenant Governor and lost to the son of a popular former Pennsylvania governor.
 Whittlesey was an early supporter of Ronald Reagan’s ambitions for the White House. She backed his insurgent 1976 campaign against sitting President Gerald Ford.
 In Reagan’s epoch-defining campaign of 1980, Whittlesey served as a delegate to the Republican National Convention in Detroit, where she co-chaired the Subcommittee on Foreign Policy and Defense. She then co-chaired Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign for her state and was credited with delivering the crucial eastern Pennsylvania votes. “I became fluent in explaining Reagan’s foreign policy during that period,” Whittlesey told the American Conservative in a 2015 profile. “I had to go out into the far reaches of Pennsylvania to explain it to ordinary people.”
 In this time, Whittlesey was involved in formulating what she called
Reagan’s “core agenda,” which in her memoirs she described as:
…support for the peaceful defeat of the Soviet Union without commitment of U.S. troops in combat, defense of life, opposition to the Equal Rights Amendment with its hidden agenda of tax-funded abortion and same-sex marriage, decentralized government, lower taxes and reduced government regulation of the private sector, school prayer, defeat of Marxism-Leninism in its various permutations and manifestations, individual Second Amendment rights, the establishment of official diplomatic recognition of the Vatican, support for tuition tax credits for parochial schooling.
 Whittlesey was twice appointed to the American ambassadorship to Switzerland, first when Reagan took the White House in 1981 and again in 1985, where she continued abroad her role as a communicator for the Reagan Revolution, explaining to a skeptical European diplomatic establishment Reagan’s policy of confrontation with the Soviet Union that would eventually lead to the downfall of international communism.
 Between these diplomatic terms, Whittlesey became Assistant to the President for Public Liaison, the only woman on President Reagan’s 18-member senior White House staff. In Washington, much as she had in Berne, Switzerland, she had to explain the administration’s goals to an audience that was often anything but receptive.
 “Reagan’s foreign policy was strongly opposed—not only by Democrats, who ferociously opposed it, but by the establishment wing of his own party,” Whittlesey told the American Conservative of her time in the White House. “He was called a warmonger and a cowboy.”

 “We engaged the public, explained Ronald Reagan’s policies,” she said. “But we were just explaining: not trying to influence public opinion, but to let people know that his policies were based on facts, so they could make up their own minds once they heard the facts rationally presented.”

 After the Reagan administration, Whittlesey became a partner and of counsel with several prominent law firms and served on numerous corporate boards – including Munich Reinsurance, Valassis Communications, Sunbeam, Nestlé USA and Schindler Elevator USA – as well as on institutional and charitable boards. She served as President of the American Swiss Foundation in New York City until 2008 when she became Chairman Emeritus.

 She received four honorary doctorates and numerous other awards. She was especially touched by having a prize-winning tea rose named for her in 2006.

 One of her proudest accomplishments at the Foundation was establishing the annual Young Leaders Conference Program, in which upcoming political and cultural leaders from the U.S. spend an intensive week in Switzerland discussing ideas and issues with their Swiss counterparts. This program has continued for 28 sessions. Ambassador Whittlesey personally attended every session. As of 2018 the program has more than 1,200 alumni who have helped forge strong bonds between the U.S. and the Swiss.

 Ambassador Whittlesey remained active in American conservative politics, often advocating positions that were unpopular on the Right at the time, but have, in the age of Trump, found a much wider audience. Perhaps most notably, she was one of the small group of prominent conservatives to oppose the 2003 invasion of Iraq. As the American Conservative wrote in 2015:

 She expressed this view one day at the Heritage Foundation’s showing of “Reagan,” a documentary on the president released in 2011. There’s a section at the end of the movie, Whittlesey points out, which “purports to show why Reagan would’ve supported the Iraq War.” After the viewing, Whittlesey stood up.

 She said, “I had the privilege of working with Reagan for eight years, and I think differently. I don’t think Reagan would’ve supported these wars.”

 Late in life, Whittlesy continued to be active and relevant on the national political stage, endorsing the Republican ticket in 2016 and writing numerous op-eds, largely counseling restraint and prudence in U.S. foreign and domestic affairs. She served as a bridge between the Reagan Revolution and the Trump Revolution 36 years later. As co-chair of Reaganites for Trump, she pushed for the resumption of Reagan’s “core agenda.”

 A practicing Roman Catholic, she also served as a member of the Trump campaign Catholic Advisory Group.

Even With Drinking, killary Can't Get Over Trump.

  05/21/18 ource: TTN by: TTN Staff

killary just can't drink him off her mind. Sounds like a country song? Nope, it's killary's life these days.

 Instead of an inspiring Yale students with the soaring rhetoric of a traditional commencement, killary regaled them with how she just can't drink away her sorrows!
  From the Daily Wire: 

Two-time failed presidential candidate killary clinton admitted on Sunday, during Yale University's Class Day, that she still isn't over the 2016 presidential election, saying that she used a number of coping mechanisms, including drinking alcohol, to deal with her defeat.
 To deal with her loss, Clinton,  a big time loser!, said that she went on long walks in the woods, spent hours going down a Twitter rabbit hole, and had her "fair share of chardonnay."
  "No, I’m not over it," clinton told the crowd. "I still think about the 2016 election. I still regret the mistakes I made. I still think though, that understanding what happened in such a weird and wild election in American history will help us defend our democracy in the future."

  killary clinton turned to the bottle, as she has told several crowds, after her loss to President Trump.

While she will never be your resident, she can look on the bright side: she can always go to Nashville. They'll take anyone these days!

Former resident "Peanut" Carter Gives Praise To President Trump.
05/22/18 by: TTN Staff
In a surprising revelation Tuesday, former President Jimmy(Mr. Peanut) Carter gave President Trump some major praise. Indicating that Trump would, in fact, deserve the peace prize if he succeeds with North Korea.
According to The Daily Caller:
Former President Jimmy Carter said he would endorse a Nobel Peace Prize for President Trump Tuesday if all goes well with North Korean peace talks.
“If President Trump is successful in getting a peace treaty that is acceptable to both sides with North Korea, I think he certainly ought to be considered for the Nobel Peace Prize,” Carter told Politico.
Carter took aim at Trump’s morals and truthfulness, saying, “I’m not here to criticize, but I think that, you know, telling the truth is one of the basic moral values that’s important,” and added, “obeying the law is an oath that all of us take before we assume public office.”
Carter also said that the U.S. has withheld potentially helpful aid from North Koreans, especially in aiding them with food supplies.
“If they’re under constant belief that the United States wants to attack them, even using nuclear weapons — which many Democrats and Republican leaders in our country have mentioned as a possibility,” Carter said, “and that we are destroying their economy, and they know that they’re starving to death primarily because the United States withholds food aid, for instance, just giving them surplus food that we can’t ever use, then I can understand how they feel.”
The summit between Trump and Kim Jong Un has been up in the air as of late. But South Korea has said they are confident it will happen next month.

Teacher Fails Entire Class: Wise Move ??..
This explains why Socialism won't work, and always fails. Is this man a genius?
An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class.
That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on this plan".
All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A....
(substituting grades for dollars - something closer to home and more readily understood by all).
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.
The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy!
As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.
The second test average was a D! No one was happy. When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.
As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
To their great surprise, ALL FAILED and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.
These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read and all applicable to this experiment:
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.
**** THAT'S WHERE WE ARE NOW! ****

Homeland Security Secretary Nielsen Shows That She Truly Understands Border Security!
5/11/18 David Inserra
Testifying before the Senate Appropriations Committee on Tuesday, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen schooled senators with her strong grasp of immigration enforcement and border security issues.
Before what would become a heated exchange over her opposition to illegal immigration—because, it’s the law—Nielsen in her opening statement explained what should be obvious to all:
"It is our policy that anyone crossing the border illegally will be detained and referred for prosecution. We will no longer exempt classes or groups of individuals from prosecution," says Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.
If you try to enter the country without authorization, you have broken the law. … It is our policy that anyone crossing the border illegally will be detained and referred for prosecution. We will no longer exempt classes or groups of individuals from prosecution. …
But our zero-tolerance policy and more funding for border security will only get us part way there. We need Congress to pass legislation to close legal loopholes that are being exploited to gain entry into our country.
Apprehensions without the ability to remove those who have no legal right to be here is not border security. The smugglers know these loopholes, and they are taking advantage of us every single day.
They know it is easier to get released into America if they claim asylum, if they are part of a family, or unaccompanied children. It should come as no surprise that we are seeing a spike in all of these categories. …
The gaming of the system is unacceptable. We need urgent action from Congress to close these dangerous legal loopholes making our country vulnerable. For border security to work, violation of the law must have consequences.
The liberal Left continue to push their radical agenda against American values. The good news is there is a solution.
Immigration experts have long argued that although border security is important, it only as good as the enforcement that backs it up.
Nielsen clearly gets that and is pushing Congress to fix the loopholes in our legal immigration system.
These loopholes range from the unintended consequences of the well-meaning William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (which incentivizes the illegal immigration of unaccompanied children) to the abuse of America’s desire to help the persecuted through the asylum system.
Other policies, such as the Flores Settlement Agreement, which have been interpreted as providing special protections to families with children further contribute to the problem.
These loopholes make it difficult for immigration officials to removal illegal immigrants, who instead of quickly being returned to their home country are often released into the U.S. to await further immigration proceedings.
Together with limited resources, these loopholes exacerbate the “catch and release” problem. Catch and release is a problem because about 40% of those released fail to show up at their immigration court hearings.
As for those who do show up, the sheer number of cases and the need to provide special protections are overwhelming the immigration court system.
Congress should heed Nielsen’s advice and look to close these loopholes. Lawmakers should maintain protections for the vulnerable and persecuted, but should also prevent these protections from being exploited in the facilitation of illegal immigration.

This Mexifornia Mayor, an Immigrant Himself, Explains Why He’s ‘Very Proud’ to Deport Illegal aliens From His City.
5/17/18 Nick Givas
Sam Abed, the mayor of Escondido, Mexifornia, took pride in deporting illegal aliens from his city and said he wants a repeal of the state’s sanctuary laws Wednesday on Fox Business’ “The Evening Edit.”
“I am very proud, you know, as an immigrant, as a leader of this city, to have deported 2,700 illegal criminals from our community and made our community safe,” Abed said. “Escondido’s crime rate went down 48% since our cooperation with ICE. And Escondido today is as safe as it was in 1980.”
Abed said he takes his constitutional duties personally and believes immigration policy should center on keeping Americans safe.
“I was sworn to defend the Constitution and also to keep my community safe,” Abed continued. “So this is a personal issue to me. This is at the core of my mission as mayor.”
Abed also called out Mexifornia’s Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown during a meeting with President Donald Trump for favoring illegal immigrants over American citizens.
“When jerry brown cares more about illegal criminals than he cares about the mexicano community and the American citizens, this is insanity, and this is unconstitutional,” Abed told President Trump.
“When I swore to be a citizen and again as mayor, I swore to defend the Constitution and to keep my community safe.
This is personal to me. I’m going to work hard to make sure our community’s safe.”
“I’m going to go back to Mexifornia tonight, and we’re going to start a pact to make sure that we will repeal the sanctuary state altogether,” Abed concluded on Fox Business.

Glenn Beck's Change of Heart on Trump and Why.
05/18/18 The Daily Caller by: Virginia Kruta
Conservative radio host Glenn Beck announced during his Friday show that despite his opposition in the past, he would vote for President Donald Trump in 2020.
Beck began by predicting that Trump would win re-election, and then he explained why.
“Here’s why I’m predicting a 2020 win.
When I saw yesterday how the press was all reporting the same damn story — that President Donald Trump was aliens ‘animals’, they left out that he was calling MS-13 gang members 'animals. — they were spinning it as if he was saying that about all aliens.
I had enough! I’ve had enough!”
Beck then took out a red Make America Great Again hat, saying,
“Media, if you can get me, Glenn Beck, to do this … If you can drive me to the point where I say, ‘you know, I’ve had enough,’ I’ll vote for him in 2020.
Gladly, I’ll vote for him in 2020. And not really even on his record, which we’ll talk about here in a second, is pretty damn amazing!”
Glenn Beck has heard ENOUGH from the mainstream media.
It's time to acknowledge everything President Donald Trump has done for America! pic.twitter.com/eZZVH1URcL — The Blaze 5/18/18

School Honors Hamas Terrorists, Now Parents are Taking Action!
05/19/2018 Source: New York Post by: Melissa Klein
This moment of silence caused a lot of noise.
Students at the elite Beacon School were asked to pause from their studies last week to pay tribute to the victims of violence in Gaza, where some 60 Palestinians were killed the day before by Israeli soldiers.
The school-wide announcement Tuesday stunned some students and has outraged parents who question why the school is entering into the divisive Palestinian-Israeli conflict with what they see as an anti-Jewish bent.
“I am extremely upset because I did not send my child to a New York City public school to pray for Hamas operatives,” said one father, who is Jewish.
