May 2026 bring you all you wish for. Happy New Year to all.
I am sure many of you have been watching President Trump’s address the nation..
Some of you may have walked away, scratching your head, saying “but the prices of goods I buy are still too high!” Trump said he would lower prices. He didn’t. Actually, he did.
It took Biden 4 years to destroy America. Fixing America will not happen overnight.
When Biden took office in Jan 2021, inflation was around 2%. By June 2021, with Biden’s reckless spending, printing money and just plain corruption… inflation leaped to 9% with interest and rising. Biden’s great economy was based on jobs for illegals, effectively leaving Americans begging for some government program handouts. The price of goods escalated, the dollar lost value and interest rates and inflation soared. Enter Trump.
Think of Trump as a farmer.
♦ Farmer Trump had to till and condition the soil. He did that by closing the border.
♦ Farmer Trump had to plant the seeds. He did that by eliminating the stranglehold of overbearing regulations stifling businesses.
♦ Farmer Trump had to make sure the crops were irrigated. Throwing out the Green energy scam took care of that. As all types of energy can be used. This will reduce the cost of all 6000 goods using fossil fuel.
♦ Farmer Trump realized we can’t just be dependent on the weather for rain, so he brought back manufacturing making America self-sufficient.
♦ Healthy plants need fertilizers. So, using tariffs, Trump made deals with other countries to invest in America.
♦ Lastly, Farmer Trump had to get rid of the weeds that were strangling those baby plants. Therefore, illegals who were stealing America’s wealth were sent out of the country.
It takes a tree about 5 years to bear fruit. President Trump put all of this in place in a year. Amazing! Don’t think the prices will lower immediately. There is no magic wand to make that happen. But he can, and did, put more money in the hands of hard-working Americans so they will be able to afford the things they need. He did this by lowering and/or eliminating many taxes and regulations.
Beware of the lies of the Anti-Trumpers. They hate everything Trump does. The Media/ Democrats/Islamists/RINOS twist and turn and spin the truth to make it appear that Trump is actually causing high prices. Remember, they are the ones who created the failing economy. They caused the crisis and now they want you to think they can solve the problem. Their solutions are expensive and don’t work, but it makes them rich.
To me the RINOs are the worst offenders. We thought “they are Republicans and we are all in this together.” Wrong. The RINOs are worse because they lead us to believe they will work to make America First when they are just waiting out Trump’s term. Things are getting better and where are the RINOs? Where is the “attaboy”? Income is outpacing inflation. Where is the messaging? Why does the GOP let the DNC control the narrative?
Make no mistake, the RINOs do not care about us. They care about money and their donors. I ask all the time: Who is the enemy? It seems as though the enemy of the RINOs is MAGA. The RPOF (Republican Party of Florida) is purging MAGA from committees replacing them with people who will tow their line. They are on a crash course to destroy the GOP in Florida. They tell us they are registering more Republicans than ever before. But they must turn the registration into a vote and here is where I give them an F.
In the US Congress, Republicans are doing everything possible to slow walk Trump policies. Not getting rid of the Blue Slips, no recess appointments (207 Vacancies), not enough arrests, keeping the Filibuster and allowing corruption to fester are more reasons for people to throw up their hands and not vote.
We cannot be part of the do nothing crowd. Now is the time to act.
Call your legislators, Federal, State and Local. Tell the Feds: NO more Blue slips! Get Trump appointments in place! Ditch the Filibuster! And stop fighting with MAGA!
We are not the enemy. If you get no help, find a candidate to run against them. Expose the RINOS on all media platforms. For State and Local candidates and current legislators, make sure you pay attention to new bills taking your rights.
Can you join a MAGA focused group in your state like the American Patriot Executive Committee? https://apecunited.com/. Help find and vet new candidates and work for those who are like minded. Vote in all elections, especially primaries.
One of the greatest lies, aka hoaxes, they created was the Green Energy Scam. My guest this week is H. Sterling Burnett from the Heartland Institute to discuss the devastation this hoax has perpetrated on the American people and the world.
♦ Foreign Elites, China Fund American Climate Alarm
♦ Rising Electricity Prices? Blame Green Energy Policies, Not President Trump
♦ Turns Out Climate Change Isn’t Causing ‘Mass Extinctions’
Is America Worth Saving?
♦ Will you contact your legislator and tell them that working with Trump and MAGA will get them elected?
♦ Florida, will you contact your state legislator and tell them NO on HB479 – State take over of water?
♦ Will you help spread the Truth
