Georgia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams believes the much hoped-for ‘blue wave’ from her party will involve legal and illegal v**ers.

The so-called wave has been on the minds of the ‘resistance’ party since President Trump took office, an assumption that hatred for the man in the White House will t***slate into energy at the v****g booth, and thus, a massive Democrat takeover of both Houses of Congress.

Abrams wants you to know that energy comes from numerous sources – from people of all different races, religions, and sexual orientations. It’ll even involve “undocumented” immigrants, apparently.

“The thing of it is, the blue wave is African American,” she said at a campaign event. “It is white. It is Latino. It is Asian-Pacific Islander.”

“It is made up of those who’ve been told that they are not worthy of being here,” Abrams added. “It is comprised of those who are documented and undocumented.”

The crowd at her campaign rally dutifully shouts “Yes!” to the insinuation that i*****l i*******ts will v**e for Democrats in the 2018 e******n.

Amazing????? Amazing she wants to include UNdocumented v**ers... guess that whole “must be an American to v**e” thing in the Constitution is lost on THIS socialist runnin for office. Early v****g starts today, GA; make a difference. https://youtu.be/WTJaZwX-JmQ

During an interview on “Fox & Friends,” GOP nominee Brian Kemp responded saying “hard-working Georgians should decide who their governor is, not people here illegally.”

Illegal v**ers have been an important topic in the Georgia e******n.

Kemp, the current Secretary of State in Georgia, has had to sit on 53,000 v***r r**********n applications because the law dictates that information must exactly match an individual’s driver’s license or Social Security records. You know, that whole “integrity of the franchise” thing.

Following the law in Abrams’ eyes means Kemp is, of course, r****t. She has referred to Kemp as “a remarkable architect of v**er suppression.”

In reality, if he were to allow processing of the questionable v***r r**********ns, then he’d be committing a crime. Choosing between either following the law or allowing i******s to v**e is really more of a Democrat Party platform, not one for reasonable adults.

After her controversial comments, Abrams tried to walk them back and say she wasn’t talking about v****g. She was talking about the community as a whole.

The Blue Wave isn’t just about v****g. It’s about a new era of American values – a day and age in which we value our families, our communities, and those who work for the American Dream. The Blue Wave is one of community building and solidarity.

— Stacey Abrams (@staceyabrams) 7:33 AM - Oct 14, 2018
But hey, I’m sure she wouldn’t mind a few thousand illegal v**es to help the cause, if it came down to it.

Georgia isn’t the only place where the integrity of the franchise is in question. The California Department of Motor Vehicles recently conducted an internal audit showing upwards of 1,500 customers had been improperly registered to v**e, some of whom were non-citizens.

And in Texas, a 38-year-old Mexican citizen was accused of stealing the identity of an American and using it to v**e illegally.

Fears of illegal v**ers participating in the ‘blue wave’ have been on the minds of Republicans for some time now. President Trump has frequently railed against v***r f***d in his own e******n, claiming millions may have v**ed illegally.

In June, Charisse Daniels, a Democrat running for a State Assembly seat in Wisconsin, was accused of forging at least 15 signatures on her nomination papers. Daniels was featured in a CNN report about women inspired to run for office to oppose President Trump.

These women marched against Donald Trump. Now they're running for office http://cnn.it/2n5BOwM #InternationalWomensDay

So were Abrams comments just an accidental admission after all?

this is only part of a long list of thing this ding bat has saddled the country with...

In 497 days, Trump has made 3,251 false or misleading claims (more than 6.5 claims a day), per the Washington Post.

In his first 10 months, Trump told ~6x as many lies as Obama told during his ENTIRE presidency, per the New York Times.

In his first year, Trump signed the fewest bills into law since at least Eisenhower (Note: More than half had to do with modifying existing programs and naming something/statement), leading to the most executive orders since at least LBJ (Note: Obama issued an average of 35 EOs per year, the fewest in 120 years), per GovTrack and NPR.

As of now, Trump has kept 10, c*********d 7, broken 7, stalled 33, and currently working on 45 of his campaign promises, per PolitiFact.

At least 22 of Trump's 67 deregulatory actions were started under Obama, while other actions had little impact, were part of actions typically taken by the federal government, or have not yet gone into effect, per Bloomberg.

According to Bloomberg, U.S. companies are valued less now than before Trump was elected, the cost to borrow for the U.S. has soared, and the dollar's share of global currency reserves has dropped by the most since 2002.

Under the prior Administration, average hourly earnings (after adjusting for inflation) grew by 0.8% per year; so far under Trump, they have grown by half of that amount.

Avg. monthly job growth since Trump took office = +186,200

Avg. monthly job growth in previous years:

2016: +195,300
2015: +226,000
2014: +250,400
2013: +191,800

Economic Scorecard:
Stock Market: Up
GDP Growth: Up
Unemployment: Down
Jobs Gained: Down
Jobs Outsourced: Up
Trade Deficit: Up
International Tourism: Down
Federal Deficit: Up
Move Rate: Down
Investment Spending: Down
Innovation Index: Down
Wage Growth: Down
Homelessness: Up
Uninsured Rate: Up
Gas Prices: Up
(Important: Not only were Obama's stock market gains higher than Trump's but also the vast majority of gains--92 months of upward trajectory--occurred under Obama, e.g. when the S&P 500 hit 127 all-time highs. Also: The Dow is not inflation-adjusted and is highly curated, measuring only the best performers in the economy. Furthermore: The average down day is 24% bigger than the average up day in 2018.)

Trump's trade policies could cost the U.S. economy $2 trillion and nearly 2 million jobs by 2022, per a consortium of analysts from Zurich Insurance, Ernst & Young, the Atlantic Council and the Organization for International Investment.

Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress have added nearly $1 trillion to the national debt in just 5.5 months, per the U.S. Treasury.

The GOP tax law is projected to increase the national debt by $1.9 trillion between 2018 and 2028, per the Congressional Budget Office.

HAPPY TRAILS TO YOU Pardners

HAPPY TRAILS TO YOU -- THE END OF AN ERA

The young guns may not understand the meaning of this, but you will.

The Roy Rogers Museum in Branson, MO has closed its doors forever.

The contents of the museum were sold at a public auction.

Roy Rogers told his son, if the museum ever operates at a loss, close it, and sell the contents. He complied.

Note the follow-on article truly the end of an era.

Here is a partial listing of some of the items that were sold at auction.

Roy's 1964 Bonneville (Pontiac) sold for $254,500. It was estimated to sell between 100 and 150 thousand dollars.

His script book from the January 14,1953 episode of This Is Your Life sold for $10,000 (EST. $800-$1,000).

A collection of signed baseballs (Pete Rose, Duke Snyder, and other greats) sold for $3,750.

A collection of signed bats (Yogi Berra, Enos Slaughter, Bob Feller, and others) sold for $2,750.

Trigger 's saddle and bridle sold for $386,500.

One of many of Roy's shirts sold for $16,250 and one of his many cowboy hats sold for $17,500.

One set of boot spurs sold for $10,625. (He never used a set of spurs on Trigger)

A life size shooting gallery sold for $27,500.

Various chandeliers sold from $6,875 to $20,000, very unique and artistic in their western style.

A signed photograph by Don Larsen taken during his perfect game in the world series against the Dodgers on Oct. 8, 1953, along with a signed baseball to Roy from Don, sold for $2,500.

Two fabulous limited edition BB guns in their original boxes with Numerous photos of Roy, Dale, Gabby (Hayes), and Pat (Brady) sold for $3,750.

A collection of memorabilia from his shows entertaining the troops in Vietnam sold for $938. I never knew he was there.
His flight jacket sold for $7,500.
His set of dinnerware plates and silverware sold for $11,875.
The Bible they used at the dinner table every night sold for $8,750.
One of several of his guitars sold for $27,500.

Nellybelle (the Jeep) sold for $116,500.
A fabulous painting of Roy, Dale, Pat, Buttermilk, Trigger, and Bullet sold for $10,625.
One of several sets of movie posters sold for $18,750.
A black and white photograph of Gene Autry with a touching inscription From Gene to Roy sold for $17,500.
A Republic Productions Poster bearing many autographs of the People that played in Roy's movies sold for $11,875.
Dale's horse, Buttermilk (whose history is very interesting) sold below the presale estimate for $25,000. (EST. 30-40 K).
Bullet (stuffed) sold for $35,000 (EST 10-15 K). He was their real pet.
Dale's parade saddle, estimated to sell between 20-30 K, sold for $104,500.
One of many pairs of Roy's boots sold for $21,250.
Trigger (stuffed) sold for $266,500.
Do you remember the 1938 movie The Adventures of Robinhood, With Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland?
Well, Olivia rode Trigger in that movie.
Trigger was bred on a farm co-owned by Bing Crosby. Roy bought Trigger on a time payment plan for $2,500.
Roy and Trigger made 188 movies together.
Trigger even outdid Bob Hope by winning an Oscar in the movie Son of Paleface in 1953.
It is extremely sad to see this era lost forever. Despite the fact that Gene and Roy's movies, as well as those of other great characters, can be bought or rented for viewing, today's kids would rather spend their time playing video games

Today it takes a very special pair of parents to raise their kids with the right values and morals
These were the great heroes of our childhood, and they did teach us right from wrong, and how to have and show respect for each other and the animals that share this earth.
You and I were born at the right time. We were able to grow up with these great people even if we never met them.
In their own way they taught us patriotism and honor. We learned that lying and c***ting were bad, and that sex wasn't as important as love. We learned how to suffer through disappointment and failure and work through it.
Our lives were drug free.
So it's good-bye to Roy and Dale, Gene and Hoppy (Hop-a-long Cassidy), the Lone Ranger and Tonto.
Farewell to Sky King (and Penny)and Superman and (D**gnet) Sgt Friday.
Thanks to Capt. Kangaroo, Mr. Rogers, and Capt. Noah and all those people whose lives touched ours, and made them better.
It was a great ride through childhood.

Anyone under 50..might not understand.
https://youtu.be/eEqUyNaSdvg

Why was it that Obama never negotiated the release of American Citizens in foreign jails. Obama could care less. He had no negotiating power because he was the weakest president over! Foreign dictators were not afraid of him. His cow towing and begging those little dicks for forgiveness was more important.

Now. Look at Trump and how he is commanding enough power to get the foreign dictators to release. Today the 9th citizen was released.

Obama released 85,000 Black drug dealers from prison. He nullified 85,000 juries. And 1002 of billions it cost to bring these criminals to justice. Supposedly they had no violent record. Many of them, I suspect, k**led or ordered the k*****gs of thousands. Think about it: 33% of all murders remain unsolved, 211,000 since 1981.

I don't know the correlation between the 85,000 drug dealers release and the Opioid Epidemic of today. The #s aren't in yet.

The right wingers love to claim trump is keeping his promises.. I would love to know what those promises are, I find none that an American should like..

but even I, a totally objective viewer of the orange fog bank, can find a number that he has not and seems to have no intention of keeping..

Now if they are not still overwhelmed by the DNA test that trump refuses to pay up on as he promised many times.

let us all have a quick look at a letter from my congressman Nolan..

>>>>>

Like so many other Americans, those of us who serve on the House T***sportation and Infrastructure committee are wondering – wh**ever happened to the President’s promise of a $1 trillion infrastructure bill? The answer, 21 months after the President took office, is “nothing.” The President and GOP leaders have earned an “F” for their failure to deliver.

A healthy infrastructure is the foundation of jobs and economic growth, and states rely on the federal government for the lion’s share of funds to fix deteriorating highways, roads, bridges, airports, rail lines, t***sit systems and water treatment facilities.

If you commute from the 8th District down I-35 to the Twin Cities, congestion will cost you about 41 extra hours in rush-hour traffic every year, along with an additional $1,332 in gasoline and wear and tear on your vehicle. Shipping delays due to highway and rail tie-ups cost Minnesota businesses millions of dollars every year.

Because situations like these are so common throughout the nation, the Civil Engineers recommend an investment of at least $3.5 trillion to bring our infrastructure up to 21st Century standards that match what China and the European Union are doing.

To put that $3.5 trillion figure into perspective, we have already spent more than $6 trillion on wars of choice in Iraq and Afghanistan. With interest and the continuing cost of our involvement and care of our wounded military Veterans, that figure is estimated to reach nearly $16 trillion over the next 20 years.

As I have said so many times before, it’s time to put a stop to these endless wars of choice and start reinvesting in America – in infrastructure, human development, medical research, education, addressing c*****e c****e, and so many other urgent national priorities to help ensure a better life for future generations.

We will keep you posted as events proceed. Meanwhile, I want to hear your thoughts. Feel free to contact any of our offices listed below or send me an email.

Sincerely,

Today it takes a very special pair of parents to raise their kids with the right values and morals
These were the great heroes of our childhood, and they did teach us right from wrong, and how to have and show respect for each other and the animals that share this earth.
You and I were born at the right time. We were able to grow up with these great people even if we never met them.
In their own way they taught us patriotism and honor. We learned that lying and c***ting were bad, and that sex wasn't as important as love. We learned how to suffer through disappointment and failure and work through it.
Our lives were drug free.
So it's good-bye to Roy and Dale, Gene and Hoppy (Hop-a-long Cassidy), the Lone Ranger and Tonto.
Farewell to Sky King (and Penny)and Superman and (D**gnet) Sgt Friday.
Thanks to Capt. Kangaroo, Mr. Rogers, and Capt. Noah and all those people whose lives touched ours, and made them better.
It was a great ride through childhood.

Anyone under 50..might not understand.

this is only part of a long list of thing this ding bat has saddled the country with...

In 497 days, Trump has made 3,251 false or misleading claims (more than 6.5 claims a day), per the Washington Post.

In his first 10 months, Trump told ~6x as many lies as Obama told during his ENTIRE presidency, per the New York Times.

In his first year, Trump signed the fewest bills into law since at least Eisenhower (Note: More than half had to do with modifying existing programs and naming something/statement), leading to the most executive orders since at least LBJ (Note: Obama issued an average of 35 EOs per year, the fewest in 120 years), per GovTrack and NPR.

As of now, Trump has kept 10, c*********d 7, broken 7, stalled 33, and currently working on 45 of his campaign promises, per PolitiFact.

At least 22 of Trump's 67 deregulatory actions were started under Obama, while other actions had little impact, were part of actions typically taken by the federal government, or have not yet gone into effect, per Bloomberg.

According to Bloomberg, U.S. companies are valued less now than before Trump was elected, the cost to borrow for the U.S. has soared, and the dollar's share of global currency reserves has dropped by the most since 2002.

Under the prior Administration, average hourly earnings (after adjusting for inflation) grew by 0.8% per year; so far under Trump, they have grown by half of that amount.

Avg. monthly job growth since Trump took office = +186,200

Avg. monthly job growth in previous years:

2016: +195,300
2015: +226,000
2014: +250,400
2013: +191,800

Economic Scorecard:
Stock Market: Up
GDP Growth: Up
Unemployment: Down
Jobs Gained: Down
Jobs Outsourced: Up
Trade Deficit: Up
International Tourism: Down
Federal Deficit: Up
Move Rate: Down
Investment Spending: Down
Innovation Index: Down
Wage Growth: Down
Homelessness: Up
Uninsured Rate: Up
Gas Prices: Up
(Important: Not only were Obama's stock market gains higher than Trump's but also the vast majority of gains--92 months of upward trajectory--occurred under Obama, e.g. when the S&P 500 hit 127 all-time highs. Also: The Dow is not inflation-adjusted and is highly curated, measuring only the best performers in the economy. Furthermore: The average down day is 24% bigger than the average up day in 2018.)

Trump's trade policies could cost the U.S. economy $2 trillion and nearly 2 million jobs by 2022, per a consortium of analysts from Zurich Insurance, Ernst & Young, the Atlantic Council and the Organization for International Investment.

Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress have added nearly $1 trillion to the national debt in just 5.5 months, per the U.S. Treasury.

The GOP tax law is projected to increase the national debt by $1.9 trillion between 2018 and 2028, per the Congressional Budget Office.
