Trump Meets With Laken Riley’s Parents, Holds Rally in Rome, GA

“Former President Donald Trump met with the family of Laken Riley backstage before speaking at a rally in Georgia on Saturday.

“I met her beautiful mother and family backstage,” Trump told the crowd in Rome. “They said she was like the best. She was always the best to us. They admit that she was the best, and she was the first in her class. She was going to be the best nurse. She was the best nursing student. She was always the best. She was the brightest light in every room, they told me.”

He added, “She was the whole world to her parents and to her sister and just to the whole family.”

Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student in Georgia, was allegedly killed by a Venezuelan migrant in the country illegally while she was on a jog on Feb. 22.

Trump laid the blame for Riley’s death on President Biden.

“Biden has implemented a formal policy that illegal aliens who intrude into the United States are granted immunity from deportation,” Trump said. “Thus, when this monster showed up at our border, he was set free immediately under the program. That crooked Joe created it.”

He added that they were “profoundly honored” to have Riley’s family and friends at the rally.

“They’re so incredible,” he continued. “The hearts of hundreds of thousands and indeed millions and millions of Americans and people worldwide, they’re shattered alongside of your beautiful hearts. We share your grief. We share your grief. Thank you, darling. Thank you. Thank you very much. We appreciate it.” (Courtesy FoxNews.com)

There’s been a lot of discussion that Trump did what he did yesterday purely out of political purposes.

That simply isn’t the case.

Trump has always been a charitable person.

Just ask singer/actress Jennifer Hudson and her family.

After a family member was shot and killed, Trump took her and her family under his wing, giving them rooms in one of his hotels and provided security staff for some members of the family.

There are also stories about him saving a family farm, of flying a little boy who was very, very sick to the hospital, of him showing up unexpectedly to a firehouse and handing out pizzas.

Trump is a people person.

He didn’t have to run for President.

He was motivated out of a sense of patriotism and a love for the American people. Trump was taught by his father to feel this way.

On his summers home from military school, Trump’s father had him work as a gopher on construction sites, taking blueprints to supervisors or anything else they might need.

It was during this time that Trump gained an appreciation for hard-working Americans and learned how to talk to us and not down to us.

I was privileged to have been at one of his rallies before the 2016 Presidential Election. My wife and I marveled at the way he kept everyone’s attention and talked to us like no other politician we’d ever seen or heard before.

Trump’s affinity for the American people shines through. His concern for the economic plight and safety of average Americans does as well.

He puts America and Americans FIRST.

The mother of Laken Riley has already publicly let President Biden know how she feels about him and his callousness toward the Illegal Immigrant Invasion, which led to the murder of her daughter.

It is President Joe Biden’s fault that this young lady is dead.

This is not the first time that former President Donald J Trump has been more like a president than Joe Biden.

And, as an American, that should tell you all you need to know.

Divided We Fall: An Analysis of Biden’s State of the Union Address

I confess.

I did not watch Shoutin’ Joe Biden and his pathetic State of the Union Address.

I went on to sleep because I have to work for a living, especially since Bidenomics took hold.

However, what I’ve seen in the clips of the debacle of Thursday night convinces me more than ever that we must get this man out of office. His failures greatly outnumber his successes.

Plus, he’s a couple of fries short of a Happy Meal.

Speaking of failures, my heart wept for that father who lost his son at the Abbey Gate explosion during Biden’s disastrous withdrawal in Afghanistan. 

I can’t even imagine the father’s pain of losing his brave young son.

He walked out of the room with an escourt and was promptly arrested.

If that’s not a metaphor for the Biden Presidency, I don’t know what is.

And, while we’re on the subject of losing a child, I can’t imagine the pain of Laken Riley’s parents who lost their sweet young daughter as a direct result of our wide open Southern Border, courtesy of Joe Biden and the Democrat Elite.

Biden didn’t even care enough about her to pronounce her name correctly.

By the way, Biden is talking about having the Navy build a port off the shore of Gaza right in the middle of the epicenter of the Israeli/Hamas conflict.

Everybody seems to forget that the Radical Muslim Terrorists of Hamas started this whole mess by savagely murdering over a thousand Israelis. As far as I’m concerned, Prime Minister Netanyahu needs to go ahead and finish the job.

President Biden and his advisors are fools if they think that they can protect our servicemen when they are over there in Gaza handing out provisions that will probably wind up in the hands of Hamas, anyway.

But, I digress…

It took Biden 40 minutes on Thursday night to talk about the Illegal Immigrant Invasion at our Southern Border. And, even then, he did not take responsibility for it.

His number one priority is not the safety of American citizens.

His number one priority is laundering more money in Ukraine for himself, his Pals in the Democratic Party, and the Republican Elite, who are all gung-ho to send more of our money over there.

Meanwhile, average Americans back home have to decide whether to put gas in their car or buy groceries.

I heard on Fox and Friends yesterday that 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. I know that to be a reality.

We were all better off under Trump.

In fact, the whole world was better off with Trump as United States President.

We must put him back in the Oval Office, or we will all be in terrible danger. Our enemies love our present weak president.

You did not see any spy balloons during Trump’s tenure, did you? And, Putin sure as heck did not invade Ukraine while Trump was president.

One more thought, we are divided as a nation right now like never before and this is the Fault of Biden and the Far Left Democrats who have been trying to force their socialist political ideology on us.

This country was built as a Constitutional Republic and that is the only way that it will continue to thrive.

We are admired around the world for our government and for our strength.

It was the faith of our Founding Fathers and their resolve that made this country great, and it is a legacy that we must continue, or else we will fade away just like countries before us.

A Charge to Keep We Have.

The Illegal Alien Invasion and The Consequences of Voting “Present”

Obama-Shrinks-2

Indecision and delays are the parents of failure. – George Canning

The President of these United States, Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm), was recently voted in a poll participated in by the American people,  “The Worst President since World War II”.

Matt Lewis, writing for The Daily Telegraph, in an article posted on Saturday, made the following observations about Obama’s failed presidency,

The trailers were great, but the movie was horrible.

Six years in, that’s the general consensus on the Obama presidency. Having ridden a wave of “hope and change” to the White House, President Barack Obama has failed to deliver on his huge box office, err, ballot box expectations.

Just how bad is it? Since it is summer “blockbuster” season, I’ll explain thusly: There’s a difference between being bad and being most awesomely bad. You and I probably never even hear of the worst movies made. They are forgotten, not mocked. But the truly disastrous flops – the Water Worlds and Ishtars of the world – are the movies that come with huge budgets and huge expectations.

Obama fits the latter category – extremely talented and hyped, but ultimately, unsatisfying. True, I’ve been making this case for a long time – but now, there’s evidence.

A Quinnipiac poll released in America this week has Obama ranked as the “worst president” since World War II. For various reasons, this may or may not be entirely fair, but considering his competition included Jimmy Carter and George W. Bush, this is problematic. And, what is more, a majority surveyed also said “the nation would be better off” had Mitt Romney won presidency.

Whereas Jaws was a summer hit in the summer of 1975, Obama has now “jumped the shark” in the sweltering summer of 2014.

So what’s to blame? For one thing, all the talk of “hope and change” turned out to be a stark contrast to his practice of stoking bitterness and division in order to win re-election. Call it false advertising or buyer’s remorse, but just because someone buys a ticket to a show doesn’t mean they’re going to applaud. Somewhere along the way, this feel-good romcom turned into a horror show.

Obama’s biggest fan club, the Main Stream Media itself, even before Obama’s 2009 Ascension to the Throne, ignored all the warning signs, which we Conservatives were screaming about at the top of our lungs. Warning signs which they themselves were aware of, but chose to ignore.

In an article posted in 2007, The New York Times reported that

In 1999, Barack Obama was faced with a difficult vote in the Illinois legislature — to support a bill that would let some juveniles be tried as adults, a position that risked drawing fire from African-Americans, or to oppose it, possibly undermining his image as a tough-on-crime moderate.

Barack Obama being sworn in as a Democratic state senator in Illinois in 1997. He was first elected in 1996 and left in 2004.
In the end, Mr. Obama chose neither to vote for nor against the bill. He voted “present,” effectively sidestepping the issue, an option he invoked nearly 130 times as a state senator.

Sometimes the “present’ votes were in line with instructions from Democratic leaders or because he objected to provisions in bills that he might otherwise support. At other times, Mr. Obama voted present on questions that had overwhelming bipartisan support. In at least a few cases, the issue was politically sensitive.

And now, with Illegal Aliens crossing our Southern Border by the hundreds of thousands, ol’ Scooter still can not make a decision to save his life…and, ours.

According to Fox News,

President Obama is backing down for now on seeking new legal authority to expedite sending illegal immigrant kids back across the border, following criticism of the proposed changes from advocacy groups, the Associated Press reported Monday.

However, an administration official immediately pushed back on the report, insisting to Fox News the expanded authorities to return the minors are still on the table.

“We already sent a letter to the congressional leaders last week on our desire for expanded authorities and we are still seeking those authorities and have made clear we will work with Congress to get those authorities,” the official said.

AP reported that two congressional aides said Obama would not seek policy changes to speed up deportations when Obama formally asks Congress for more than $2 billion in emergency spending Tuesday to deal with the border crisis. The White House told Congress last week that it would seek “additional authority” for the Homeland Security secretary to quickly return the minors back home, and the pledge has been repeated by administration officials since.

According to AP, White House officials said they still intend to eventually pursue additional authorities to speed the return of the children who’ve been arriving by the thousands, mostly from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala. However, for now the White House request will focus on additional money for immigration judges, detention facilities, legal aid and other items that could address the situation on the border.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest also said in a briefing Monday that the administration is seeking the changes.

“What we’re seeking is additional authority that can be used by the secretary of Homeland Security to deal with the situation in a humanitarian way, in a way that’s in line with our laws,” he said.

Immigration advocates have responded angrily to the proposed changes, with more than 200 groups signing onto a letter last week calling on Obama to reconsider. Some congressional Democrats also voiced concerns.

The advocates have understood the changes to mean that the children, who currently have the right to a hearing before an immigration judge, would lose that right and instead would have to make it through an initial screening with a Border Patrol agent.

According to curiosity.discovery.com, the duties of the President of the United States are as follows…

When a president takes office, he or she swears to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” The Constitution gives the president the following foreign policy responsibilities:

Making treaties with other countries, with Senate approval
Receiving foreign heads of state
Commanding the U.S. armed forces, as well as any state militias under federal control
Domestically, the president is responsible for:

Making sure that the U.S. laws are enforced

Appointing public officers, such as Supreme Court judges
Issuing criminal pardons
Proposing bills to Congress
Presenting a State of the Union

In addition, the president can convene or adjourn Congress as necessary. He or she also has the power of veto over Congress’ decisions. Presidential terms run for four years, and the 22nd Amendment limits a president to two terms. The president is paid for his or her efforts and can be impeached for serious crimes.

However, in order to fulfill those duties, a United States President actually has to be able to make a decision.
