Rambling Russ Kelly
Opines and commentary about issues and politics of the day. Conservative views of current events.
In my opinion, the perfect slogan for 2020 Trump campaign.... "AMERICA FIRST!"
Food for thought....
(M) Some facts. Thanks to Americans Against The Republican Party for finding this.

TRUMP LANDSLIDE SWEEP IN 2020 IN ELECTORAL COLLEGE (and that is what matters) PERHAPS EVEN IN POPULAR VOTE! Both houses of Congress go strongly to Republicans.
HOW TO.... BUILD THE WALL NOW AND HAVE MEXICO PAY FOR IT. REALLY!
It's simple. We give billions in aid to Mexico. So we make a little side bar agreement with Mexico so that we build our wall and Mexico enjoys paying for it.
The "keep it quiet" agreement, maybe made over some excellent Mexican cuisine and drinks is this. We up our aid to Mexico by 8 billion dollars in fiscal year 2019. Frankly, that is mere chump change in the scheme of our budgets, but if you want to put on your accountants eye shade, we'll just reduce some other foreign aid, say to Venezuela or Saudi Arabia by the same amount of 8 billion. So, a total wash so far, right. And we earmark that addition aid for their security systems, whatever that means to anyone. It just sounds good. And we tell them, in exchange for that 8 billion dollars in additional aid we are willing to give them,, we want them to pay for our building of the wall to the tune of 6 billion for next fiscal year.
Easy huh? A win win. We get our wall, Mexico officially pays for it, Mexico gets an additional 2 billion net in aid from the U.S., and we stick it in the eye of Venezuela or Saudi Arabia.
Simple huh? You gotta think outside the box on this stuff. Now, I've already told you how to have national health care at no cost, and lower prescription drug prices for everyone, but Washington is not acting! I insist you call your elected representatives in Swamp City and tell them to implement Rambling Russ's plans for free health care for all, low drug prices, and a border wall paid for by Mexico, These things are just so darned simple :D
SOMETIMES THE MOST COMPLEX PROBLEMS HAVE THE SIMPLEST ANSWER.....
Recent video on the news about the early arrival of some from the many caravans headed toward our border to try and break through and cause problems. It shows some of those troublemakers climbing the really tall fence, sitting on top and taunting our officials and some sliding down the U.S. side of the fence. What is to stop anyone from climbing over, and if done in numbers, do we have the resources to stop them. Well, the answer is simple.
We won't have anyone crossing over the border by climbing over the fence and dropping into U.S. soil if we do one exceedingly simple thing, and something that we are now equipped and prepared to do, since we wisely stationed U.,S. military troops along the border in support of our border agents. Here is how we can stop the entry....
Very simply, we place the large rolls of razor wire along the fence on the U.S. side of the fence. No one is going to be willing to drop into that. And, if anyone is dumb enough to do it, well, we won't be worrying about catching them. We will be spending our time cutting them out of the razor wire so we can transport them to the nearest medical facility. Dropping into the razor wire guarantees serious personal injury, disfigurement, or even fatalities so it is not to be taken lightly. Along the wall on the Mexico side of the fence must be many postings, in several languages,, explaining the razor wire and the certain outcome if they attempt to go over the wall. Proceed at your own risk.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE YOUNG MOBS IN SWAMP CITY
Young people are tribal. Always have been. Lots of energy, enthusiasm, desire to break away from adults telling them what to do and how to run their lives. They rebel.
When I was young, in HS, we used to drive our cars up and down main street, drop in the local hamburger drive in (Larry's in my case) and simply congregate and mingle and be rowdy with our tribal counter parts. The louder we could yell and the more rowdy we could get, well, so much the better for many of us.
That's all the reason mob scene is. Most don't even know the cause or issue they are participating in. All they know is that the weather is great for a demonstration, they will get free food and drinks, perhaps free transportation to a fascinating place, and they can be part of a big tribal crowd that newspapers and TV are covering. What could be more fun?
Of course when the weather turns cold, windy and rainy, all this nonsence stops until the next warm season. Some will mature and grow up a bit, many will evolve into really big time conservatives, and all of them will have great stories to pass along to their kids and grands.
This is the way it goes. Let 'em have their fun. Control the mayhem, punish the ones that break the law.... it's all part of their learning.
RED WAVE IN NOVEMBER MID-TERM ELECTIONS, AND HERE IS WHY....
The media and Democrat Party strategists would have everyone thinking blue wave because the libs are really energized and conservatives are going to be complacent and stay home. Don't they wish that were so.
It won't happen that way. It will be a red wave of majestic proportions, and here is why...
The Socialists and Dems had just a few things to hang onto, and they thought they would and life would be la la land of magic for Socialists and libs. BUT, they have lost badly on every major count and THE LIBS WILL BE THE ONES THAT WILL BE DEMORALIZED AND STAY HOME.
Look at their failures on the really big and important issue. Every one a failure. No wonder they will be demoralized and will stay home.
#1 - ELECT HRC AS PRESIDENT..... FAILED!!!!!
#2 - Since #1 failed, BRING DOWN THE PRESIDENCY OF DONALD TRUMP..... FAILED!!!!!!
#3 - And finally, perhaps the biggest failure of all from their perspective..... KEEP A LIBERAL MAJORITY IN THE SUPREME COURT..... FAILED!!!!!!
No wonder the Liberals and Socialists are going to be demoralized and stay home. They do not have a single leader, a single thought, or a single idea that they can hang their hat on. It will be a long time for them to recover.
The pendulum has started swinging right. Perhaps in twenty years it will be just about right, but it won't stop there.... it will keep going far right until at some point, maybe forty years away, it will again start the swing to the left. That's the way this works. Simple, huh?
KAVANAUGH TO BE CONFIRMED TO U.S. SUPREME COURT IN DAYS.....
Wed, 10-3-18 AM
Long national nightmare about over. FBI report out today. Lots of holes in all of the stories of all of the accusers. Some big "untruths" have been told under penalty of perjury.. U.S. prosecutors will have referrals to a Grand Jury for perjury. An example will be made of all of those making false charges under penalties of perjury because this should never happen again. Destroy a person. Destroy a family. Destroy ability of U..S. to attract the best and brightest to serve in highest levels of government. This cannot be tolerated. Additional witnesses have come forward with information and the exposure of perjury is great. Many parts of "suppressed memory" story debunked and proven false. Too many to enume5rate on here, but watch today. Then watch the results of the mid term elections. Another shocker for the world. After the mid terms there will be enough votes in both houses that extremists and Socialist types will not be able to stop the U.S. recovery and growth..
WHY ESTABLISHMENT TYPES IN SWAMP CITY, BOTH SIDES OF ISLE, DON'T WANT THE DOCUMENTS RELEASED....
For the past year I've felt that there was not to be said about adding my voice to the political debate which was really getting out of hand and frankly was just too outrageous to participate in or even watch.
But, here is a side of the story you likely have not heard discussed anywhere. At least I haen't, and yet it seems all so obvious to me.
Put politics aside for a moment and let your mind wander as to why reasonable and responsible leadership figures in our nations capital do not want all the documents to be declassified and available for full disclosure. And I'm talking true patriotic types, ones that really do want our government to function. We know why the libtards do not want the documents revealed, here I am talking about reasonable voices (reasonable voices in nations capital, almost an oxymoron I guess).
The FBI i engaged in some mighty fights, terrorism chief among them. And for the most part, the FBI is doing a fantastic job on that front. The corruption, deceipt, and lies to Congress and judges is chiefly a top executive level breakdown in the otherwise robust and honorable reputation of the FBI. At least that is my belief. Major corruption and lies, but strictly at the top.
One it is conclusively exposed and proven how much corruption, lies, and false set ups were done by leadership at the FBI, and mainly to change the outcome of a national Presidential election, the integrity and believeability of the entire FBI will be held in doubt by the public for a very long time to come. What FBI agent is going to be able to testify in court when everything the agent testifies to will be held in doubt by the jury because of the recent past history of lies, corruption, deceipt, and set ups? Defense will have a field day of destroying the believeability of the very best of the prosecution witnesses... the formerly formidable and reputable word of the FBI. Everything they say will be tinged with doubt in the minds of many of the jurors. Many oif the perpetrators brought to trial that indeed are guilty as sin are going to walk free because the reputation of the truthfulness of the FBI has been destroyed. Not exactly what we need in this time of fighting and stamping out terrorism.
Now, take that same scenerio to the higher level... the Department of Justice. What credence can be given to any case the Justice Department brings. Almost none. And when the trust in the justice system of this country is in serious doubt, we are losing oine of the very cornerstones of our democracy. The effect on Justice will be devastating and long lasting. It will almost cripple everything we do in protecting and preserving our freedoms probably for decades to come.
So I understand why many are so very reluctant to really reveal the depth of deceipt and corruption within our government. The consequences of it will be devastating.
Yet, I believe, for the pain it will cause this nation, the only way to restore faith in our government and instityutions, is to put it all out on the table and deal with it. Long prison terms for those that it is warranted. And a total reshaping of our cherished institutions of the FBI and Justice. And of course there are those that shout "yes, and the IRS and State Department as well!" And they are correct, it painful as it will be.
My opinion, for what it is worth on the way this is going to end up....
After the mid term elections, Serssions will be requested by the President to give Mueller 60 days to wrap up and write his reports on all that he has found with a definite word on whether any evidence of collusion was discoverrd, the original charge of the investigation. At the same time, Sessions will be requested to fire Rosenfeld, and there will be ample cause for this as declassified FISA documents will likely show how deeply he was involved in a false an corrupt instigation with the aim of destroying the duly elected President. Sessions will refuse. POTUS fires Sessions and guess what? Rosenstein automatically moves up to be the Acting AG. Then POTUS fires Rosenstein and gives Mueller 60 days to wrap up and write his report. A new AG will be appointed, and a Special Counsel will be appointed to investigate all of the corrupt behavior and actions within government. It is going to get messy.
Then the long tortuous period of bringing forth all the corruption charges, fixes to thr system, and trying to reassure citizens and foreign governments alike that while we are in turmoil, we are acting and in full control of government.
Many reasoned voices will argue that this is unachievable and the safest course of action is to limit charges to a few of the most nefarious, and just enough to quiet the public outrage, smooth things over, and get on with the business of governing For the future of our democracy, I believe this would be the wrong thing to do.
That is my two cents worth, and likely worth every penny of it. :D
