The Best Is Yet to Come!

“I am firmly convinced that we must never judge political movements by their aims, no matter how loudly proclaimed or how sincerely upheld, but only by the means they use to realize these aims.”

~ Werner Heisenberg, 

Whatever your feelings for Trump, these are some smart & relevant points that Tim Allen makes.

 

From: Tim Allen

 

Here are some interesting points to think about prior to 2020, especially to my friends on the fence, like moderate Democrats, Libertarians and Independents and the never Trump Republicans and those thinking of "walking away" from the Democratic party.

 

Women are upset at Trump’s naughty words -- they also bought 80 million copies of 50 Shades of Gray.

 

Not one feminist has defended Sarah Sanders. It seems women’s rights only matter if those women are liberal.

 

No Border Walls. No voter ID laws. Did you figure it out yet? But wait... there's more.

 

Chelsea Clinton got out of college and got a job at NBC that paid $900,000 per year. Her mom flies around the country speaking out about white privilege.

 

And just like that, they went from being against foreign interference in our elections to allowing non-citizens to vote in our elections.

 

President Trump’s wall costs less than the Obamacare website. Let that sink in, America.

 

We are one election away from open borders, socialism, gun confiscation, and full-term abortion nationally. We are fighting evil.

 

They sent more troops and armament to arrest Roger Stone than they sent to defend Benghazi.

 

60 years ago, Venezuela was 4th on the world economic freedom index.Today, they are 179th and their citizens are dying of starvation.In only 10 years, Venezuela was destroyed by democratic socialism.

 

Russia donated $0.00 to the Trump campaign. Russia donated $145,600,000 to the Clinton Foundation. But Trump was the one investigated!

 

Nancy Pelosi invited illegal aliens to the State of the Union. President Trump Invited victims of illegal aliens to the State of the Union. Let that sink in.

 

A socialist is basically a communist who doesn’t have the power to take everything from their citizens at gunpoint ... Yet!

 

How do you walk 3000 miles across Mexico without food or support and show up at our border 100 pounds overweight and with a cellphone?

 

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez wants to ban cars, ban planes, give out universal income and thinks socialism works. She calls Donald Trump crazy.

 

Bill Clinton paid $850,000 to Paula Jones To get her to go away. I don’t remember the FBI raiding his lawyer’s office.

 

I wake up every day and I am grateful that Hillary Clinton is not the president of the United States of America.

 

The same media that told me Hillary Clinton had a 95% chance of winning now tells me Trump’s approval ratings are low.

 

“The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people’s money.”— Margaret Thatcher

 

Maxine Waters opposes voter ID laws; She thinks that they are racist. You need to have a photo ID to attend her town hall meetings.

 

President Trump said — "They’re not after me. They’re after you. I’m just in their way."

 

Now, go Back & Read this Again like you Future Depends upon it, Because it Does.

Khrushchev's Message 60 years ago...

A sobering reminder; Do Read Plan Thoroughly:

It's been almost sixty years since Russia’s Nikita Khrushchev addressed the UN and delivered his "shoe pounding" prediction message for America. He was the first secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union from 1953 to 1964, which was the beginning of "The Cold War".

At that time, the word ‘communism’ was feared throughout our nation. Now here's some food for thought if it doesn't make us choke! 

Do you remember September 29, 1959? 

 

THIS WAS HIS ENTIRE QUOTE:

"Your children's children will live under communism, you Americans are so gullible.  No, you won't accept communism outright; but we will keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you will finally wake up and find you already have Communism.  We will not have to fight you; We will so weaken your economy, until you will fall like overripe fruit into our hands. The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not."

Remember, socialism leads to Communism, so how do you create a Socialistic State?  There are 8 levels of control; read the following recipe.

1) Healthcare - Control healthcare and you control the people.

2) Poverty  - Increase the poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them.

3) Debt - Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.

4) Gun Control - Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government That way you are able to create a police state.

5) Welfare - Take control of every aspect (food, housing, income) of their lives because that will make them fully dependent on the government.

6) Education - Take control of what people read and listen to and take control of what children learn in school.

7) Religion - Remove the belief in God from the Government and schools because the people need to believe in ONLY the government knowing what is best for the people

8) Class Warfare  - Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. Eliminate the middle class. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to tax the wealthy with the support of the poor.

Lost Control

 

While riding my Harley, I swerved to avoid hitting a deer, lost

control and landed in a ditch, severely banging my head.

 

 Dazed and confused I crawled out of the ditch to the edge of the road

when a shiny new convertible pulled up with a very beautiful woman who

asked,

"Are you okay"?

 

As I looked up, I noticed she was wearing a low-cut blouse with

cleavage to die for...

 

"I'm okay I think," I replied as I pulled myself up to the side of the

car to get a closer look.

 

She said, "Get in and I'll take you home, so I can clean and bandage

that nasty scrape on your head."

 

"That's nice of you," I answered, "but I don't think my wife will like

me doing that!"

 

"Oh, come now, I'm a nurse," she insisted. "I need to see if you have

any more scrapes and then treat them properly."

 

Well, she was really pretty and very persuasive. Being sort of shaken

and weak, I agreed, but repeated, "I'm sure my wife won't like this."

 

We arrived at her place which was just few miles away and,after a

couple of cold beers and the bandaging, I thanked her and said

 "I  feel a lot better, but I know my wife is going to be really upset so

I'd better go now."

 

"Don't be silly!", she said with a smile.

"Stay for a while. She won't know anything. By the way, where is she?"

 

"Still in the ditch, I guess."

For the first time, scientists have detected a radio signal from outer space that repeats at regular intervals.

 Gemini Observatory/NSF’s National Optical-Infrared Astronomy Research Laboratory/AURA Image of the host galaxy of FRB 180916 (center) acquired with the 8-meter Gemini-North telescope of NSF’s OIR Lab on Hawaii’s Maunakea. Images acquired in SDSS g’, r’, and z’ filters are used for the blue, green, and red colors, respectively. The position of the FRB in the spiral arm of the galaxy is marked by a green circle.

 

The series of "fast radio bursts" – short-lived pulses of radio waves that come from across the universe – were detected about once an hour for four days and then stopped, only to start up again 12 days later. 

This cycle repeated every 16.35 days for more than a year, according to a  new paper about the research. 

 

The bursts originated from a galaxy about 500 million light-years away. 

 

"The discovery of a 16.35-day periodicity in a repeating FRB source is an important clue to the nature of this object," the scientists said in the paper.

The repeating pattern, reports  Science X Network, "suggests the source could be a celestial body of some kind orbiting around a star or another body. In such a scenario, the signals would cease when they are obstructed by the other body."

"But that still does not explain how a celestial body could be sending out such signals on a regular basis," Science X said. "Another possibility is that stellar winds might be alternately boosting or blocking signals from a body behind them. Or it could be that the source is a celestial body that is rotating."

Alien signals?  More bizarre 'fast radio bursts' detected from outer space

 

It's not likely to be aliens, the  Massachusetts Institute of Technology said in a statement, because the signals are a sign of energetic events that are on the extreme scale of the cosmos. "Even a highly intelligent species would be very unlikely to produce energies like this. And there is no detectable pattern so far that would suggest there’s a sentient hand at play," MIT said.

 

Fast radio bursts last only a few milliseconds, which makes it difficult to accurately determine where they have come from.

 

"One of the greatest mysteries in astronomy right now is the origin of short, dramatic bursts of radio light seen across the universe," the  Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy said in a statement. 

"Although they last for only a thousandth of a second, there are now hundreds of records of these enigmatic sources," the institute said.

 

Since 2007, according to MIT, most of the radio bursts are “one-offs,” but a small number are “repeaters” which recur in the same place.

 

The fast radio burst that repeats every 16 days was detected by the  Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment, a radio telescope designed and built by several groups of Canadian scientists to study space phenomena.

HEY, OUCH!

 

No wonder the Obamas hate President Trump.

 

Good news is always sweet, especially when even Snopes will verify the same. Snopes says our President Donald Trump did indeed send Obama a bill for all the vacations he has gone on since leaving office….

 

It's no wonder ex-President Obama's last speech went after President Trump. Obama's recent speeches are not to support his Democrat party, they are to slam President Trump for taking away the Obamas taxpayer-paid planned vacations for the next 20 years! President Trump cancels their vacations, and refunds the money to the American taxpayers.

 

PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST ENDED THE OBAMA'S VACATION SCAM!

 

Ex-President Obama was going to stick us for $2.1 billion or so.   Before Obama left office, he arranged with the State Department for a series of "official visits" to foreign countries spanning the next 20 years. Using funds from the Office of Presidential Visits and Vacations, Obama was planning to use what would have been $2.1 billion in free vacations for him and up to 24 members of his family plus staff and even a dog sitter until the year 2036. He would have, that is, until President Trump put a stop to it. Trump, who is alwayslooking for ways to save money, was presented with a ledger that contained all of the Obama's travel plans and expenses. The ledger was found by one of the workers President Trump hired from outside the typical White House staff. President Trump immediately canceled the plans and recalled all Secret Service agents scheduled to protect the Obamas anywhere outside of the United States. The Obama's are also facing another new challenge at the hands of President Trump. They're going to have to repay the government for all of those vacations that weren't official state business.  The bill, after some small allowances for days that were possibly work related, is for $214 million. Of the 692 days the Obama's spent on vacation, almost none included any work at all. They ate, slept, and golfed And, Michelle was given shopping allowances from the Office of Discretionary Gifting Funds, which is supposed to be used to buy

presents for visiting dignitaries.  Feel free to share this with everyone in your email list. Many Americans will appreciate to know these hidden facts. 

 

Yea, President Trump! We love what you do and what you stand for!

 

P.S. Michelle's mother, who took care of the granddaughters for all 8 years was GETTING PAID! And NOW she is getting a pension of $13,000 a month for the rest of her life. (chew on that; how much is YOUR social security?)

Legendary American poet and Author Ralph Waldo Emerson seemed to foresee the lesson of the senate impeachment trial of President Donald Trump:

"When you strike at a king, Emerson famously said, you must kill him."

Trump's over reaching foes, struck at him with ever thing they could conjure but  did not take him down!

When you see that trading is done not by consent, but by compulsion.

When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing.

When you see money flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors.

When you see that men get richer by graft and pull, than by work and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you.

When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming self-sacrifice,

you may know that your society is doomed" - AYN RAND

Radio & Cat Vibes

Wire telegraph is a kind of very , very long cat. You pull it's tale in New York and it head meows in Los Angles . Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: You send signals here; they receive them there. The only difference is there's no cat :-)
