Update: Happy Birthday Melania! We’ll celebrate your birthday when we have more time – after the tech hamsters fix our comment log-in problems.

While we wait to celebrate, there is lots of news on topics we wrote about in the original article below. The big surprise today is a potential order on withdrawal from NAFTA. This potential NAFTA withdrawal is likely more art of the dealing. President Trump this week imposed stiff duties of 3% to 24% on Canadian soft lumber in an effort to “level the playing field” for American lumber companies. A potential NAFTA withdrawal is a Trump art of the deal Trump card to move matters along more favorable lines to the U.S.

Somewhat “surprising” only in the sense that it is difficult to believe that an American President is trying to keep his campaign promises – President Trump is doing just that. On Wednesday, as promised, Trump administration officials outlined proposed deep cuts in taxes for individuals and companies. There’s also progress on ObamaCare repeal and replace with maybe a vote this week.

As to North Korea warmongering, fear is growing that NK is shrinking their nukes to make it easier to place them on missiles to attack the United States. President Trump, as promised, invited all 100 senators to the White House for a briefing on the North Korean threats.

We won’t make any dirty jokes about Li’l Kim’s li’l missile – we’re too busy beating the tech hamsters to get them to fix the comments section.

————————————————————————–

The war for the West is on. After the opening moves, all the chess pieces are in place.

In America the modern day Paul Revere and Winston Churchill, combined into one Donald J. Trump is now fully engaged after almost 100 days in the Oval Office. In Europe, whatever happens in the second round of voting, Marine Le Pen finds herself at Poitiers, ready to refight the Battle of Tours. In Asia, the American aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson is engaged in military exercises alongside Japanese warships, soon to be joined by the USS Michigan and other mighty American warships, as they all get ready for a bloodletting in the Korean peninsula. Even Barack Obama is back from vacation with the rich and famous ready to make more money by flim-flaming the most gullible on the left.

Chess players and Churchill get it: “This is not the end, it is not even the beginning of the end, but it is perhaps the end of the beginning.”







The French election results are good news. While it is true that Macron, a globalist pawn, is likely to win the second round of the election in France; while it is also true that Marine Le Pen is not a favorite of ours because she is more socialist than many understand; while it is also true that Marine Le Pen will now face the full brunt of the French political establishment and all the institutions of the French Republic; while it is also true that all the polls show defeat for Le Pen and victory for globalist pawn Macron… there are good tidings in the results from the election in France.

The good news as we reflect on the revolutionary election in France? First giant bit of good news is that the establishment political parties are defeated. Yes, Macron is a globalist pawn but Macron ran as a pretend “outsider” because that is the only way to win. We explained this in July 2015 in regards to the “mystique” of candidate Donald J. Trump:

Despite all these ideological attacks and corporate desponsorship attacks, and Big Media attacks, Donald Trump is growing in popularity with the voters. Why? We explain in simple English the Donald Trump mystique: WHEN YOU ARE IN A SNAKE PIT YOU DON’T CARE WHO HANDS YOU A STICK. We’ve been warning about this for the longest time. In recent elections in so-called “democratic” countries – the voters are being ignored. In election after election, voters vote for an establishment political party – then once in power the political party they voted for stabs them in the back. Witness the 2014 elections in the United States in which the Republican Party won elections based on opposition to Barack Obama then once in cozy offices they pull out all the stops to assist Barack Obama to pass ObamaTrade. This happens over and over and over. Eventually voters catch on and they decide to vote for the biggest motherf*cker around who will do what they want. The voters find themselves in a snake pit, surrounded by vipers, and they reach up to grab whatever stick is handed to them. In Europe, extreme right wing parties increase in popularity. Why? Because the voters find themselves in a snake pit – betrayed by the political parties they vote for based on lies. Eventually the voters say “Fu*k you motherf*ckers, Fu*k you” and Marine Le Pen gathers strength in France, Denmark goes right wing, and the rallies in Germany grow and grow. In many of these cases the issue is immigration and illegal immigration. The voters trapped in the snake pit learn.

Second bit of good news from the revolutionary elections in France? Marine Le Pen is one Muslim terrorist attack from leading the French Republic.

Great Britain’s Telegraph confirms we were right in July 2015 with this report on the election results in France:

The Socialist Party’s official candidate BenoÃ®t Hamon came sixth with a paltry 6.2 per cent of the vote, meaning the two major French parties mustered less than 27 per cent of the vote. The two finalists offer France two very different visions of Europe and the world, with Mr Macron billing himself as the progressive versus conservatives, and Ms Le Pen as the patriot versus the globalists. On Europe, he wants to further beef up the euro zone, while Ms Le Pen intends to leave the euro and hold an in-out referendum on EU membership within six months of taking power. Most of the defeated contenders instantly called on their supporters to vote for Mr Macron, with Mr Fillon warning that Ms Le Pen would lead France “to ruin and European chaos”. [snip] From his Paris headquarters, an ecstatic Mr Macron, 39, an ex-investment banker and economy minister, said: “We are clearly turning a page of French political life.” His pole position vindicated his huge bet to leave the government of Socialist president FranÃ§ois Hollande a year ago to found his own movement, En Marche! (Onwards!), on a “neither Left nor Right” platform. Many predicted the bid by a political novice who has never held elected office would burst like a bubble of champagne Socialism. Speaking from her stronghold in HÃ©nin Beaumont, a former mining town in northern France which has an FN mayor, Ms Le Pen insisted: “The first step that will lead the French to the ElysÃ©e has been taken.” “Either we continue on the path of total de-regulation, offshoring, mass immigration, free movement of terrorists, the reign of big money. Or you choose the France of borders that protects your identity,” she said. “It is time to liberate the French people.”

Marine Le Pen, flawed as she is, with economic policies we disagree with, is a latter day Joan of Arc. She is rallying the French nation to defend itself. Whether she wins or loses in the second round of elections, Marine Le Pen has set the terms of the argument that must be discussed in France and in all the West. For Marine Le Pen, as we wrote in that July 2015 when “it’s over for Trump” was conventional wisdom, the issue is immigration, and the Muslim soft invasion of Europe.

Those that discount Marine Le Pen as a sure loser, have an historic tide to contend with. â€œLe Penâ€™s momentum is a slow-moving reaction against the men of Davos — as we have seen with Brexit and Trump — but markets donâ€™t want to believe it.â€

As in the Battle of Tours, Marine Le Pen is fighting the invasion of Europe by Muslim culture, ideology, and population. The actual military Battle of Tours fought off an armed invasion. The battle Marine Le Pen wages is thus far political, cultural, ideological, and the military aspects are restricted to Muslim terror bombings. Marine Le Pen is one Muslim terror attack away from becoming the official leader of the French nation. But whatever happens on the electoral front, Marine Le Pen will eventually win the argument and the modern battle because her analysis of France invaded is obvious to all that are willing to see the terrorist attacks and the population invasions for what they are.

In France, we are at the end of the beginning.

In America too, we are at the end of the beginning.

Even as we celebrated our 10 year anniversary, President Donald J. Trump will celebrate his first 100 days as President this coming Saturday. President Trump will not only celebrate this milestone on day 100. Because Big Media planned one of their Trump-hate orgies, this one known as the White House Correspondents Association Dinner, on the same Saturday – President Trump with his 100 day celebration schlonged the Big Media animals. It is a joy to behold.

For his first 100 days, President Trump has been a nonstop vortex of work, work, work. The GOP establishment in the House of Representatives has been a non-working stop on the President and the nation:

This Do-Nothing Congress Is A Travesty Agenda: Shortly after Donald Trump won the election, House Speaker Paul Ryan said that Republicans had to “go big, go bold, and do things.” So far, the GOP has not delivered. “They have the House, they have the Senate, they have the presidency â€” and nothing’s happening,” lamented PJ Media co-founder Roger Simon earlier this week. “Nothing, that is, that Donald Trump doesn’t do by himself. … The Republicans in the legislature are a disgrace.” Congress did pass, and Trump signed, 13 bills to undo last-minute Obama administration regulations. And the Senate approved Trump’s Supreme Court pick. But what about actually advancing long-awaited Republican legislative priorities, like ObamaCare repeal and tax cuts? Nada. [snip] There was every reason to think that Republicans would have, in the words of Instapundit’s Glenn Reynolds, bills “lined up like airplanes on a runway ready to take off in the new year.” That is, after all, what’s happened in the past when one party gained control of the White House after securing both the House and Senate. Lawmakers rushed to enact key pieces of their agenda that had been bottled up by the opposition, or that the president ran on. [snip] There’s plenty of blame to go around for the GOP’s lack of achievements so far. But Ryan has been the biggest disappointment, since the House is where things get rolling. Ryan earned his reputation for his ability to dive into big issues and produce thoughtful, innovative conservative reforms. So far, his ability to act aggressively and unify his caucus around anything has been sorely lacking. If Ryan can’t figure out how to do this, and soon, he should consider handing the Speaker’s gavel to someone who can “go big, go bold, and do things.“

It is the end of the beginning. This week, with the first “skinny” budget due in order to avert a government shutdown, President Trump will have to take on the Paul Ryan establishment head-on. Already, Big Media wants to help Paul Ryan shut down President Trump and close the door on his great big beautiful wall:

Trumpâ€™s Wall Demands May Decide Whether 100th Day Is a Shutdown [snip] Trumpâ€™s biggest demand is a Democratic deal-breaker: money for his long-promised border wall with Mexico. Democrats hope heâ€™ll blink to avoid an embarrassing milestone for a new president trying to prove he can govern. A partial shutdown would start on Saturday, Trumpâ€™s 100th day in office. â€œThe Wall is a very important tool in stopping drugs from pouring into our country and poisoning our youth (and many others)!â€ Trump wrote Monday on Twitter. There is an out for both sides — a short-term spending plan that would provide another week or so for negotiations after the deadline early Saturday. “We feel very confident the governmentâ€™s not going to shut down,” White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said Monday, although he said he wouldnâ€™t guarantee it. The spokesman wouldnâ€™t say whether the president was willing to shut the government down over funding for the border wall. [snip] Right now, each side is dug in. And Trump is making things more complicated, not less. At the same time as budget talks intensify, heâ€™s pushing House Republicans to re-start work on an Obamacare repeal-and-replace bill after the last one imploded in March when conservatives walked away. Trumpâ€™s also planning to announce at least the broad parameters of a tax overhaul on Wednesday that seems sure to have plenty to annoy Democrats, including likely tax cuts for corporations and high-earners. On top of that, Trump insists he wonâ€™t go quietly even if Republicans and Democrats cut a deal. [snip] Republicans may not be willing to allow the government to shut down over the wall. â€œI wouldnâ€™t risk a trillion-dollar funding bill for a $3 billion wall,â€ Representative Tom Cole, the Oklahoma Republican who sits on the House appropriations and budget committees, told MSNBC Monday. â€œThereâ€™s another way, another time to get this.â€ Through it all, Trump has sounded upbeat, saying he thinks negotiations are in good shape to avert a shutdown.

The Democrats don't want money from budget going to border wall despite the fact that it will stop drugs and very bad MS 13 gang members. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 23, 2017



President Trump is attacked by Big Media because he wants to fulfill his campaign promises. President Trump is under attack by Big Media and the rest of the political establishment because he wants the congress to work, actually work, not just go on vacations they call “recesses”.

President Trump is battling Congress, Big Media, the political establishment, the academic establishment, and just about every institution of power. At the same time President Trump is prepared to confront North Korea.

Already President Trump has deployed the USS Carl Vinson to exercises with Destroyers from the Japanese navy. The guided missile launcher USS Michigan submarine will arrive off the Korean coast by Tuesday. This armada will soon be joined by the South Korean navy. It’s the end of the beginning:

The Michigan is armed with around 150 Tomahawk missiles, with a range of about 1,000 miles. All 100 U.S. senators will be briefed on North Korea at the White House late afternoon Wednesday. Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will do the briefing, according to a Pentagon spokesman. Tuesday is Army Day in North Korea and U.S. intelligence is expecting some kind of â€œfirepower display.â€ North Korea has continued its show of defiance, detaining a third U.S. citizen, Tony Kim, on Saturday. The North has also continued its barrage of aggressive language, threatening the Vinson — its forces are â€œcombat-ready to sink a U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier with a single strike,â€ state-run media bragged. However, Bill Richardson, the former New Mexico Governor who has also served as U.N. Ambassador, has previously negotiated prisoner releases with North Korea, and he suggested that the taking of detainees might indicate thereâ€™s a â€œpath forwardâ€ with North Korea. Prisoner releases in the past have led â€œto at least a dialogue.â€ â€œThey use…these detainees from the United States as bargaining chips,â€ he told CBS News. â€œThey always want something in return.â€

Porcine Bill Richardson demonstrates the problem with Obama Dimocrats. Instead of expressing outrage at the capture of American citizens to be used as pawns, the squealing Richardson thinks this is good news because North Korea can now use a hostage to get “something in return”. But North Korea is dealing with President Donald J. Trump not the fey weakling Barack Obama.

Barack Obama is back for profit taking after his profitable vacations. President Trump invited the fifteen U.N. Security Council Ambassadors to the White House and warned them on North Korea.

The Obama loving Politico today reports, on Obamaâ€™s hidden Iran deal giveaway. Barack Obama infuriated the Justice Department, with his release from prison, as part of the Iran deal, men considered to be “threats to national security”. The Muslim men Barack Obama released from prison include three who illegally procured for Iran microelectronics for cruise missiles, a man serving an eight year prison sentence for “conspiring to supply Iran with satellite technology and hardware”. Obama also removed a $10 million jury imposed penalty for money received from Iran by the former prison inmate. Obama also “dropped charges and international arrest warrants against 14 other men, all of them fugitives” wanted by Interpol. Not only that, Barack Obama removed “Interpol red notices and dismissed any charges against 14 Iranians”. Barack Obama protected, aided, and abetted the Persian Empire of Terror and assorted terrorists interested in acquiring nuclear weapons.

“That may be about to change” reports Obama loving Politico. Why? Because President Donald J. Trump, that’s why.

For Barack Obama, revealing reports such as the one from Politico are the end of the end.

For President Donald J. Trump, it is the end of the beginning. There is lots more winning to come.
