President Trump Advances Keystone XL and Dakota Access Pipelines

President Trump recently signed executive actions to advance the construction of the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines. Both oil pipelines were delayed or denied under former President Obama.

The Keystone XL pipeline was delayed for around 7 years and then denied by the Obama Administration in late 2015 because he felt it would undercut U.S. efforts to obtain a global climate change deal that became part of his “Paris Agreement” legacy. TransCanada, the pipeline company behind the Keystone XL pipeline, sued the Obama Administration for $15 billion in damages due to the costs it incurred awaiting a final decision.

James Carville Was Right ... That The Democrats Are Toast, and Trump is Kicking Rump

In 2016, Democratic strategist James Carville (who incidentally enough is married to former Republican operative Mary Matalin) played up whatever political acumen and integrity he claimed to have (nil), and wrote another book called: “We’re Still Right, They’re Still Wrong.”

Obama’s Disgraceful Departure

Although President Barack Obama acted friendly toward Donald Trump, aiding him in the transition and meeting with him, behind the scenes he left Trump with a number of policy landmines that our new President must confront as he pursues his agenda.

“We didn’t discuss the negative, we only discussed the future and the positive. And we really get along well. Now again, he may say differently, but I don’t think he would,” said Trump, according to The Hill. He told the press that he received a “beautiful letter” from Obama upon taking office.

It doesn’t take a registry to make a certified Muslim

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright is merely stating the obvious when she tells us she’d be willing to sign up as a Muslim if only there were such a thing as a “Muslim Registry”.

In reaction to reports indicating President Donald Trump plans on suspending the U.S.’s refugee program for 120 days, Albright hit the Tweet send button Wednesday, saying she is prepared to register as a Muslim in “solidarity”.

In all ways other than officially registering as one,  Albright is a Muslim.

President Trump: THANK YOU for defunding International Planned Parenthood

In his very first pro-life action, President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning government funding of International Planned Parenthood Federation and any other organization that performs and promotes abortion overseas!

Trump’s pro-life action came a day after the 44th anniversary of the notorious Roe v. Wade Supreme Court ruling, which along with the Court’s Doe v. Bolton decision, established abortion-on-demand as the law of the land.
