President Donald Trump took to Twitter to urge Republicans to use the Nuclear Option and saying there would be no deal with the Democrats on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA).

Trump tweeted Sunday morning, “Border Patrol Agents are not allowed to properly do their job at the Border because of ridiculous liberal (Democrat) laws like Catch & Release. Getting more dangerous. ‘Caravans’ coming. Republicans must go to Nuclear Option to pass tough laws NOW. NO MORE DACA DEAL!”

Shortly after that tweet, he followed it up saying, “Mexico is doing very little, if not NOTHING, at stopping people from flowing into Mexico through their Southern Border, and then into the U.S. They laugh at our dumb immigration laws. They must stop the big drug and people flows, or I will stop their cash cow, NAFTA. NEED WALL!”

These big flows of people are all trying to take advantage of DACA. They want in on the act!

Following up on his twitter remarks, while heading to an Easter service in West Palm Beach, Florida, he again called on Mexico to do more to help on the border.

In a TMZ video, Larry King is asked about a recent remark by retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens saying that the 2nd Amendment should be repealed. Larry’s response is to ‘repeal it.’

King even went on to say that the reason for the second amendment was to fight off slaves.

Yeah, no, I don’t think so.

The reason for the second amendment was and is to support our natural right to self-defense.

But, let’s not forget that Mr. Larry King is not at all accurate is his version of history for the call of the 2nd amendment.

Just watch for yourself:

In this special presentation, we talk about the domestic terrorist group known as ANTIFA.

A special thank you to our guest SlickeryTrigger as he is known on Twitter.

AntiFa has been something of a thing before, so their rise to fame right now should not be a surprise. The only difference between then and now is that they have the funding they need. In large part, their funding comes by way of George Soros. Now, it’s no secret that he’s been funding other domestic terrorist organizations in the US. Other groups like CAIR and La Raza and a host of others receive their funding from him as well.

So… what makes Antifa of today different? What can we do? What does it all mean to you? These questions and much more are discussed in this special broadcast.

The California chapter of the NAACP is seeking to remove ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ as the national anthem when state legislation returns at the start of the year.

According to the group, it is “one of the most racist, pro-slavery, anti-black songs in the American lexicon.”

California NAACP President Alice Huffman told The Sacramento Bee, should find a replacement that is not “another song that disenfranchises part of the American population.”

“Our flag and national anthem unite us as Americans,” Assemblyman Travis Allen, a Huntington Beach Republican who is running for governor, said in a statement. “Protesting our flag and national anthem sows division and disrespects the diverse Americans who have proudly fought and died for our country. Real social change can only happen if we work together as Americans first.”

Harper Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, “To Kill A Mockingbird” is both iconic and controversial.

You can’t argue against it being controversial, as it is always being censored for some reason or another.

It’s iconic as it has been read numerous times, and has defeated many an argument.

For one Mississippi school district, it’s being pulled as it ‘makes people uncomfortable.’

A message on the school’s website says “To Kill A Mockingbird” teaches students that compassion and empathy don’t depend upon race or education.

The truth of the matter is the book is meant to make people feel uncomfortable. It challenges many people on what they think and feel.

On a personal level, I’ve always enjoyed “To Kill A Mockingbird.” It has always been one of my most favorite books I’ve read. “Of Mice and Men” is another. Both of these books have incredible storylines. Another that recently made that list for me was “Same Kind of Different as Me.”

Each one of these stories hooks you emotionally and forces a level of discomfort. It’s a tool used by writers for both paper and screen.

It’s time people set aside using their feelings alone as their decision maker, and look objectively at the issues at hand.

Think back if you will to 1999 and the buzz was all about Y2K. Like many others, the government was somewhat concerned about their preparedness. So, many government agencies would report to the White House their updates.

Fastforward seventeen years to 2017, and those same agencies over the years have had to continue their reports on Y2K preparedness. Yes, you read that right. We’re spending time and money to report on our preparedness for something that happened/didn’t happen seventeen years ago.

So, let’s give credit where credit is due and congratulate the Trump administration on their efforts of eliminating wasteful regulations.

According to a Bloomberg report:

The Trump administration announced Thursday that it would eliminate dozens of paperwork requirements for federal agencies, including an obscure rule that requires them to continue providing updates on their preparedness for a bug that afflicted some computers at the turn of the century. As another example, the Pentagon will be freed from a requirement that it file a report every time a small business vendor is paid, a task that consumed some 1,200 man-hours every year.

“We’re looking for stuff everyone agrees is a complete waste of time,” Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney told reporters at the White House. He likened the move to the government “cleaning out our closets.”

Seven of the more than 50 paperwork requirements the White House eliminated on Thursday dealt with the Y2K bug, according to a memo OMB released. Officials at the agency estimate the changes could save tens of thousands of man-hours across the federal government.

“Many agencies have forgotten how to deregulate,” he said. “It’s been so long since somebody asked them to look backwards.”

Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, who jumped aboard the Donald Trump train long before the real estate mogul sewed up the Republican nomination, on Friday accepted the offer for attorney general, Fox News has confirmed.

Sessions, 69, who advised Trump on immigration during the bruising campaign, was U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Alabama from 1981 to 1993 before being elected to the U.S. Senate in 1996. He was re-elected to a fourth term in 2014.

Sessions was famously photographed in a “Make America Great Again” baseball cap at an August, 2015 Trump rally, and formally endorsed Trump on Feb. 28, 2016. His longtime spokesman, Stephen Miller, later joined the Trump campaign as a senior adviser.

The appointment to attorney general would be subject to confirmation by the U.S. Senate, where Sessions’ Republican colleagues hold a majority and would be expected to affirm the choice.
