One of the political mysteries of modern times is why Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts cast the deciding vote to uphold the validity of Obamacare just before the 2012 election.
Some speculated he’d been blackmailed, but offered no proof of such wrongdoing.
Early in his presidency, President Donald Trump insisted he’d been wiretapped by President Obama during the presidential campaign. Although he never produced evidence to back his claim, evidence is surfacing that both he and Roberts may have been monitored for some time.
Whistleblowers are beginning to come out of the woodwork offering what they consider evidence that may corroborate what many have long suspected about the dark workings of the Deep State during the Obama administration.
One of those whistleblowers has given evidence to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), but nothing has come of that effort.
Learn who the controversial figures coming forward are and why they have firm allegations against former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. The stunning details can be found on the next page.
Giving info to this FBI or justice department is like pissing in the wind.
Presidents are always given too much credit or blame for economic performance on their watch. So many factors are outside their control. But beyond that, the idea that this is already “Trump’s economy” is ridiculous. None of Trump’s big agenda items — at least the ones corporate America and Wall Street really care about — have become law. No ObamaCare repeal. No massive tax cuts. No trillion-dollar infrastructure. Nothing
To the extent that any president “owns” an economy’s performance, we’re still in the Obama era. Indeed, we really ought to credit the economic performance during the first year of any president’s term to his predecessor — after all, it’s mostly that other guy’s budgets and policies directly influencing the economy. So for instance, George W. Bush’s economy wasn’t from 2001 through the end of 2008 — it was 2002 through the end of 2009. And so on.
This change would make a big difference. During George W. Bush’s two terms, GDP growth averaged 2.1 percent as 1.4 million new jobs were added. Pretty unimpressive. But recalculated — Bush gets Obama’s first year and loses his first year to Bill Clinton — and the 43rd president’s record looks even worse: just 1.5 percent growth and a loss of 1.1 million jobs.
This isn’t to say Trump should get zero credit for anything good that’s happened this year. It’s certainly reasonable that the stock market’s 10 percent rise since Trump took the oath of office at least partially reflects investor expectations about his growth plan. But how much? It’s always tough to parse these things. Believe it or not, there’s more going on in the world than Trump
We need to fill Gitmo. Dems and repubs are corrupt.
The very large Reagan tax cuts in the early 1980s were supposed to improve U.S. productivity growth. But there was no upturn until the mid-1990s. This time around, tax cuts might boost growth, but probably not too much if they are temporary and greatly worsen the deficit.
How many things can he do and not be arrested!
