Trump’s Executive Order Confronts a Long History of Veteran Neglect

In a bold effort to confront decades of shortcomings in veteran care, President Trump recently signed an Executive Order to establish the National Center for Warrior Independence—a dedicated initiative set to be built on the Veterans Affairs campus in West Los Angeles. - Gregory Lyakhov 

•  With an ambitious target of housing 6,000 homeless veterans by 2028, the order 
• also enacts sweeping reforms to reduce wait times at VA hospitals,
• expand virtual healthcare access, 
• and reinstate accountability by removing employees found guilty of misconduct.

Trump’s order marks a significant pivot in federal policy...

The "logic" behind the event-----NO KINGS Muskegon, MI

NO KINGS Muskegon, MI � No Kings

About this event
In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.
While Donald Trump is set to celebrate his birthday with a lavish $40 million parade—funded by taxpayers, no less—we invite you to join us in imagining all the better ways that money could serve the people.
Grab a bite to eat at Taste of Muskegon and then come witness a bit of bold street theater featuring a surprise guest in the ultimate “dethroning of the king.” 

• Watch as Trump sends Elon Musk running through the crowd before being brought down in front of a cheering audience.

This is a celebration of the people, not the powerful—and a reminder that democracy doesn't come with a crown.

• Join us as we return power to the people! 

NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. 

We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. 

They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies...

In your heart, you know he's right!

Meet the criminal illegal aliens that Los Angeles is rioting about * WorldNetDaily * by Jason Hopkins, Daily Caller News Foundation

Meet the criminal illegal aliens that Los Angeles is rioting about * WorldNetDaily * by Jason Hopkins, Daily Caller News Foundation: 

"Why do Governor Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass care more about violent murderers and sex offenders than they do about protecting their own citizens?" Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a prepared statement. "These rioters in Los Angeles are fighting to keep rapists, murderers, and other violent criminals loose on Los Angeles streets." "Instead of rioting, they should be thanking ICE officers every single day who wake up and make our communities safer," McLaughlin said. Numerous other illegal migrants convicted of serious crimes were taken out of LA communities, thanks to the recent ICE operation.

LA riots exploded in defense of 'large criminal conspiracy' * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh: 

Riots exploded in Los Angeles over the weekend, and President Donald Trump ordered National Guard troops in to quell the violence. Multiple Democrat activists and radicals immediately jumped to defend the community of migrants, including criminal illegal aliens, from the federal plan to enforce the law. Unfair, they claimed, to bring officers against immigrants over their illegal status.

Trump's Economy Is Crushing Expectations - Matt Margolis

Remember the dark days of the Biden years, when the economy felt like it was sputtering along and every other job created seemed to be on the government payroll?

Well, there's good news. 

Things have changed completely under President Donald Trump's second term. 

The latest numbers are nothing short of phenomenal, especially if you're a fan of actual, you know, private sector job growth...

The contrast is stark.

• The U.S. job market continues to defy expectations under President Trump. In May alone, the economy added 139,000 new jobs — which beat forecasts for the third month in a row — with every single net gain coming from the private sector. That’s right: zero new government bloat, just real jobs in real industries. 
• Leisure and hospitality led the way with 48,000 new hires, while 
• transportation and warehousing added 5,800 jobs. 
• Construction notched its fourth straight month of growth, tacking on another 4,000.
• One more stat the media won’t highlight: native-born Americans now account for all job gains since January. Under Joe Biden, the trend was reversed. And unlike the Biden era, where one in four jobs created was in government, 99.8% of new jobs under Trump are in the private sector. This is what real economic leadership looks like...

But it's not just about job numbers; it's about what those jobs pay. 

And the news on that front is also excellent. 

• Wages are rising for non-government workers.

Average hourly earnings for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls rose by 15 cents, or 0.4 percent, to $36.24 in May...

An oldie from 2005 MuskegonPundit------ Interesting Miracle Gro commercial

MuskegonPundit: Interesting Miracle Gro commercial: 

I just watched a Miracle Gro TV commercial starring Peter Straus (of old TV fame) touting the viagra-like effects on plants of MG. 

But the really interesting thing was the attractive but very grey haired lady (wife?) who gazed adoringly at super-gardener Pete as he preened for the camera. 

Quite a switch from the typical trim geezer with the 20 year younger trophy wife. 

Maybe the MG kept the marriage vibrant or is this a HORRIBLE new trend? 

Pleeese, no...... I want commercials that are REAL! 

Maybe a Henry Kissinger inching around on his walker as an adoring Carmen Elecktra snips the buds off their daffodils and has him lick MiracleGro from her fingers.....hmmmm

Summer of Jihad??!!
