Leading in the Right Direction
President’s Corner
They Won’t Go Quietly
As President-Elect Donald Trump works to build a cabinet made up of people who excel in their fields, the Democrats in the Senate are proclaiming they will work to obstruct and thwart some of them like Pete Hegseth, Dr. Marty Makary and Linda McMahon to name a few. Nine others have had bomb threats on their lives while a deranged man in Arizona threatened to kill President Trump.. Meanwhile the Biden Administration is escalating the Ukraine conflict by sending missiles intended to attack inside Russia and considering sending Ukraine nuclear weapons. The International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu & Canada's Justin Trudeau agrees with it! It seems like the Democrats, in cahoots with the Neocons around the world, are trying to sabotage the incoming president in an attempt to thwart Trump’s plans to negotiate peace deals and to have a successful transition.
On the national scene, left-wing governors like J.D. Pritzker of Illinois, Newsom of California, and even our own governor, Katie Hobbs, have spoken out against the new Border Czar, Tom Homan. While they all have vowed not to allow him to deport anyone from their sanctuary cities, Homan has made it clear that any obstruction on their part would be a violation of federal law and would be dealt with accordingly. In fact, the coward, Katie Hobbs soon changed her tune and last week said she would “work with the new administration to increase services and manpower to help Arizona’s border issues, but she still made it clear that she would not allow “everyday Arizonans to suffer from misguided policies that will only divert resources from the important work happening here and across our border.” What a joke! She wants the Trump Administration to give her administration money and support, yet she will determine which policies she will enforce. Let’s see how that will work for her when confronting the powerhouse, Tom Homan who said, anyone obstructing the new policies had better get out of the way if they aren’t going to help. He will arrest anyone breaking the law!
In an interview with Arizona Free Enterprise Club, U.S. Representatives from Arizona, Eli Crane and Andy Biggs had lots to say. Crane said that Americans believe Donald Trump is awesome but that congress ‘’sucks.” They have no confidence in congress, but they turned out to support Trump. When asked whether Ruben Gallego would be a force in the Senate, they said unequivocally, NO. If the House and Senate do their jobs, he would not be able to drive his radical agenda. He is low on the Totem Pole and his agenda will be scuttled. I hope they’re right.
The two were concerned about the recent developments in the Biden Administration’s proxy war in Ukraine, which is “foolish, arrogant and deadly” promoted by Neocons who never went to war, suffered or died, but rather got rich from the funding of the Military Industrial Complex. They believe Putin is smart and will not trigger WW III with Trump coming into office but it depends on how much the current administration escalates in the next 50+ days.
Biggs and Crane said that the Republican Party is now the party of peace and that 65% of those in the military vote Republican, especially after the Afghanistan debacle. They said we haven’t learned anything as a country. We flew In 70,000 people with no vetting while we left hundreds of allies there who we did not extract, many who have been hunted down and killed. Yet this administration says “Whatever it Takes” regarding Ukraine! The two congressman ended by saying we have been lied to and we now have men and women who have gone to war, families who have suffered the loss of loved ones to death or disability. Why? What cost are we willing to accept when we spill blood and treasure in areas around the world we don’t even know about while we ignore the crisis at our own border?
These are issues they are confident will be addressed by the incoming Trump Administration. The question is how much more damage will the Biden Administration and the Democrats in Congress do in the next 50 days and how do we insure that our cabinet nominees and our president are protected from harm. Let’s pray that we make it through this attempt to sabotage our incoming President, Donald Trump.
