BREAKING News From DC!!
TRUMP Says HELL NO!!
The Democrats and the GOP RINOS in Congress are back to their normal shenanigans.
But this time our President isn't Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush or George W. Bush.
This morning President Donald Trump sternly warned both Democrats and Republicans in Congress
that he won't approve any legislative fix for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals
program, or DACA, until he sees full funding for the much needed border wall between the
US and Mexico.After losing my home state of California because President Ronald Reagan
fell for the Democrat lie that promised border wall funding after he sighed amnesty, and
seeing how globalist President George HW Bush failed to live up to his 1988 campaign promise
of "Read my lips, no new taxes," which set up this nation for the Clinton curse which
we are still living with 25 years later, it's awesome to finally have a president who actually
keeps his promises?

10 promises Trump kept in 2017
Donald Trump in 2017 moved from being a chaos candidate to a chaos president.
He shoots for the moon (literally), routinely says things that aren't true, and often
makes pledges that generate enormous attention but very little follow-through.
Many of his signature policy efforts have been tied up in or blocked by the courts,
his campaign is under investigation by the FBI, and his approval rating is at historic
lows for a first-year president.
But the mind-numbing deluge of the Trump administration's first-year controversies — the sheer number
of misstatements and inflammatory tweets and abrupt staffing shifts — sometimes obscures
the fact that Trump has achieved quite a number of the things he set out to do during the
first year of his administration.
He is, after all, the president.
And Democratic resistance or no, that remains the most powerful post in the land — the
ultimate government executive authority.
Here are 10 campaign promises Trump kept.
Together, these achievements could form the nucleus of a reelection campaign.The replacement
for Justice Scalia will be a person of similar views and principles."
On Jan. 31, Donald Trump nominated Neil Gorsuch, described by the New York Times as "a conservative
in the mold of Antonin Scalia."
He was confirmed at the start of April on a 54-45 party-line vote after a bruising political
campaign for and against his nomination, and the removal of the judicial filibuster and
its 60-vote threshold in the Senate.
This was the easiest campaign promise for Trump to keep — thanks to Senate Majority
Leader Mitch McConnell's refusing to open the confirmation process to an Obama nominee
throughout 2016 — and Trump kept it.
Since taking office, Trump has nominated and the Senate has confirmed more appellate judges
in his first year than any other president since the courts they sit on were created
in 1891.
Pull out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, "a potential disaster for our country."
Trump promised to replace America's multilateral trade agreements with one-on-one deals, and
on his first full weekday in office he pulled America out of the 12-nation TPP agreement,
a signature Obama accomplishment that Hillary Clinton had also expressed doubts about.
Critics say U.S. withdrawal from the agreement governing trade with Asian and Pacific nations
only strengthened the hand of China.
"Cancel" the Paris climate deal.
Trump vowed to "cancel" the Paris climate accord, which was ratified in October 2016,
giving it the force of international law, and in June 2017 announced he would withdraw
the United States from the now 197-country agreement to reduce carbon emissions.
"We're getting out," he said.
Of course the accord continues to exist, even without the official support of the world's
second-largest source of carbon emissions.
And because the climate accord was ratified just days before Trump won election, the process
of withdrawing from it is no simple matter: It will take four years and only become final
shortly before the 2020 election.
Nonetheless, Trump took all the steps he could to put "a checkmark next to one of his key
campaign promises," as CNN put it over the summer.
"The Trump plan will lower the business tax rate."
Trump made an array of specific promises during the campaign on how he'd cut taxes as president.
Among them: Lower the business tax rate from 35 to 15 percent, "collapse the current
seven tax brackets to three brackets," repeal the alternative minimum tax and eliminate
the carried interest loophole, create a new child- and elder-care tax deduction, and eliminate
the estate tax.
Of these promises, the one most clearly encoded in the tax bill hashed out by Congress in
December was the lowering of the corporate tax rate, which was reduced from 35 percent
to 21 percent.
"This bill put corporate tax cuts first; that's where roughly 70 percent of the benefits
go," noted Los Angeles Times columnist Doyle McManus.
The alternative minimum tax remains on the books, though with a higher income exemption
level, as does the carried interest loophole and the estate tax.
The new plan does not decrease the number of tax brackets at all, though it changes
their income thresholds and rates.
"Repeal and replace disastrous Obamacare."
Congressional Republicans were repeatedly thwarted in their efforts to repeal and replace
the Affordable Care Act's many provisions in stand-alone bills, but the individual-mandate
penalty for not carrying health insurance, which was legally permitted as a form of taxation
by the U.S. Supreme Court, was repealed in the tax bill passed December 20.
The mandate penalty is understood as one of the core provisions underlying the ACA's
health insurance exchanges, which need healthy as well as sick individuals to pay into the
system.
The Trump administration sought to undermine enrollment in the exchanges in other ways
too, such as cutting back on the advertising for them and the time to enroll.
But Democratic and activist efforts to preserve Obamacare may have acted as a yearlong advertising
campaign for the program, and enrollment in the exchanges in the end reached record numbers
for 2018.
Rolling back regulations.
Donald Trump has overseen what the Week has described as "the biggest regulatory rollback
in American history."
As befits an antiregulatory agenda overseen by a former real estate developer, the major
focus of that rollback has been undoing regulations promulgated by the Environmental Protection
Agency and the Department of the Interior — both of which govern land use — and
rules that rein in the banking industry.
The administration has also adopted a more lenient approach to enforcing those rules
that remain on the books.
"Drill, baby, drill."
Advocates for protecting wildlife in the Arctic This was originally a 2008 Sarah Palin campaign
promise, but Trump stood next to her as she echoed it while supporting his campaign, and
he promised to once again open America's public lands and offshore areas to energy
exploration.
In April, Trump signed an executive order to allow offshore drilling in parts of the
Arctic, Pacific and Atlantic oceans, including in marine sanctuaries, declared off limits
under Obama.
He also ordered the Interior Department to review the Obama-era rules.
The administration overturned an Obama-era ban on new coal mining leases on public lands
as well.
"By ending catch-and-release on the border, we will stop the cycle of human smuggling
and violence.
Illegal border crossings will go down."
Then-Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly declared on a visit to El Paso, Texas, in
April, "We have ended dangerous catch-and-release enforcement policies."
That was a bit of an overstatement, but the perception that the Trump administration had
ended the policy of allowing captured undocumented border crossers to avoid detention while awaiting
legal disposition of their cases led to a dramatic 58 percent decline in border-crossing
attempts during the first half of 2017.
By June, the average monthly increase in those awaiting proceedings outside custody was about
7,500, compared with 20,600 during the final seven months of Obama's presidency.
In April, the Border Patrol caught a low of 11,100 undocumented immigrants, but by October
it had become clear that there had not actually been a formal revocation of catch-and-release
policies, despite statements to the contrary, and border crossings surged again, to 26,000.
That said, Trump's assertion that ending catch-and-release would decrease crossings
was proved correct, and border crossing attempts declined sharply for a time.
Recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
"While previous presidents have made this a major campaign promise, they failed to deliver.
Today, I am delivering," Trump said in making the announcement overturning seven decades
of U.S. foreign policy in December.
The administration went on to sign a waiver permitting the U.S. Embassy to remain in Tel
Aviv for another six months, continuing the policies of previous presidents.We finally
have President Trump, a man of his word who won't let the establishment convince him
that they can be trusted.
All during the campaign as he would make his multiple, almost unreal, promises, I recall
telling a friend who was very suspicious of him at that point, "If he does 10% of what
he claims it will still be 8% more than what any other Republican President in our lifetimes
has ever done, and who knows, we might even be pleasantly surprised."
Never in a million years did I ever dream that after only a year in office, he would
be keeping most of the promises he made.
Makes you wonder what the other 44 presidents were doing during their time in office.
