If you study the history of the United States’ 8-year war with England for our independence…. And study the history of our country’s advancement and development for freedom and opportunity for 250 years… It was a different mindset for the love of our country. Looking at our current political climate…. What a dramatic change and the start of decline. We have developed two distinctive factions in Government than no longer negotiate for the benefit of the country but hate and oppose every action of the other side... Good, Bad, and ugly. Then the Posting: “Is this what you voted for?”. We voted to return our country to the guidelines of the Founding Fathers as written in our US Constitution… No Open Borders… there is a process… No Welfare to capable individuals…. No Free Stuff… Respect for Law and order, Respect for authority… Free Rights to a job …. Accountability for your actions…. A media that is held accountable for reporting accurate unbiased news of events…. We need to support ideas and progress instead of following a path of a party or a small hand full of people destroying our country. We have the power to Scrutinize the credentials of people we vote to represent our country and its future path…. We have the power…. Chose wisely…

Labor Day is one of the greatest tributes to all the workers who built this great country throughout the years…. Not to be confused with Celebrating Unions who are slowly destroying our country with Socialism and gaining control of our workforce….. It’s a power grab making the unions wealthy…

Watched an extensive documentary regarding the falling levels of the Western Reservoirs. Poor science and greed are draining these bodies of water and currently California is the biggest drain on the Reservoirs with no plans to cut usage…. Years ago, it was unscientifically assumed the rain supply would never change. Weather changes in cycles, as history proves, and levels will not come back for hundreds of years. Somewhere in time, California will have to reduce their usage…… When the level drops to a coming low level, the water intakes for Hoover dam power generation will stop supplying water to the turbines and One of the nation’s largest Power generating sources will quit… This is not a Doom’s Day threat… this is real Science and it’s in your face right now. Time for the Federal Government put water management in place... Current farmland was not able to grow crops until water was diverted…. Sooner or later, farming will cease there and water won’t be available for landscaping and other unnecessary uses. Act now…..

Reading about this presumed mandatory “Tipping” which is now the Tax-free Salary of the wait person which is 20%...+ So, went to dinner alone… $50 tab, left $10=20% However, table next to me had 4 diners so the possible tab would be $200 and 20%=$40 tip. So, if this is the server’s income, they just got cheated out of $30. So, theoretically, I should have left $40 or an 80% tip……. Right…. Give that some thought when you’re dining and Tipping… New equation, dine only in 4’s or tip much higher…

what's amazing and notable..... people campaign for office on serious issues we are concerned about... Promise if elected they will work for the people........ Then we elect them and put them in office...... day one in their new office they quickly fall under the power of their party and we no longer have a say in what they vote for.. notice that.... when you see these politicians in the media with a sole purpose to vote against the President and our country..... See less

We witness so much adverse action against President Trump. News conference after news conference…. As the current administration uncovers so much fraud and theft of Taxpayer’s dollars….And initiates so many beneficial programs…. But Hate for Trump is center focus… Not the issues….

I expect The Reality with the Bears, Years ago, Soldier’s Field was financially solid and for the most part wasn’t a financial burden to the city. Player’s salaries were reasonable and there weren’t costly unionized workers being paid for 12 to 15 events a year. Today’s Bear’s cost numbers tell the whole story. Quite a contrast to Wriggly Field… Privately Owned, contributing Revenue to Investors, The City, and local businesses... I also expect the high majority of attending fans are less than a hundred miles from Chicago. There is little financial benefit to Arlington Heights to participating in funding a stadium for a dozen games a year and any other events planned. Illinois Taxpayers living 100 to 380 miles away should not be forced to pay to fund an Arlington Park facility. If Indiana is willing to burden their Taxpayers and they have investors to add funds, there is where The Bears can go. Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois are in a downward financial and Management spiral. Facts, Figures, and statistics don’t lie when truthfully reviled… That’s reality, bragging rights don’t pay the costs…. If there is a financial benefit, then Private Equity investors would already be building a stadium instead of wanting to build homes at Arlington Park. An Arlington Park Sports complex would be great, for hundreds of years to come.

Loosing The Iconic Chicago Bears Sports Team from the State of Illinois is Just another milestone in the destruction from corruption in the state of Illinois... Started Many Many years ago with just a little here and a little there but a constant slide since the Democratic Socialistic Machine gained total control. Democratic Governors, House Members, Congressmen, Mayors, and a long list of government officials have gone to prison… But not enough…. Illinois has passed the point of no return.... There is no possible path to recovery.... Perhaps Bankruptcy... Remove Union domination and The Democratic Party Machine in all the state and rebuild from the bottom up... Amazing “The People – Voters” can’t see the overall picture because they are told everything is good, “Trust the Party” …..

There are videos posted on the renovation currently going on in our Capitol, Washington D.C.. Monuments, Fountains, and Grounds are being restored to their original beauty. The squatter’s shelters and camps are gone, trash has been removed from streets and public places. I understand crime is considerably down. What a tribute to the Capitol of our country…. I hope there can be plans to go nationwide to restore all the monuments honoring our country’s growth and restore our Pride in our great land. God Bless the USA…..

And yet, voters continue to support and reelect unqualified people to represent them in government. Watch your candidates, study their history and qualifications....... If they've never held a responsible job or position, perhaps there are better choices ... but the party in control decides who runs for office... voters really don't have much of a choice....

A Only way to protect our World Order for safety in The Strait of Hormuz is to remove the current Regime in Iran… With their focus on Terrorism and spread of their Muslim Culture, The World will never see Peace, Prosperity and safety until there is a change and constant World monitoring.

Watched a Documentary on the growth and amazing future in the city of Milwaukee and surrounding area…. It missed a major part of the equation… Lack of progressive city management and high crime rate…. Perhaps there should be some type of Federal Government oversight and control of managing the area. Like Chicago, Milwaukee will die by its own mismanagement. We see massive investments in Municipal areas that are not governed correctly.

Had an opportunity to drive some back country areas in Illinois. What a beautiful state. The state of Illinois is 55,000 square miles…….. Cook County Illinois is 950 square miles and Springfield Illinois is 61 Square miles…18 % of the state….. 82% of the State of Illinois supports the 18% of a corrupt government. This is why there should be some system like the Electoral College so all the counties in the state would have equal benefit and have input into the management. Every time there is an election, the same 18% of connected incapable insiders are put back into office. Illinois counties should pay attention to how things

This is a good issue…… I applied for a renewal of my Wisconsin Driver’s License. I received an E-Mail asking if I had in fact applied for a renewal…. I had to bring a couple items to prove I lived here……. All States should do that… When we voted last week, after being handed my driver’s license, they asked me to repeat my address… This should be everywhere.

Every day we see clips on the media of members of Congress and the Senate disrupting our government, criticizing our President, dividing our citizens, defending criminals and Methodically bankrupting and dismantling our country……. With people cheering them on as though they are Heroes…… Have any of these same Congressmen and Senators offered positive suggestions or benefits ……. Only destruction and abuse of power….. Is this what you voted for???

I believe Epstein was the most influential Lobbyist in History. Frequent visits to “Epstein’s Fantasy Land” topped any contribution to campaign funding and produced many Legislative and favored decisions. I expect Epstein was well funded through “Pay to Play”, implied Extortion, and support by foreign adversaries. I doubt the full files will ever be released because of the Back Room agreements on both sides of the aisle. Parties agree to post all they want in the media, but the bottom line… Not many politicians will be identified, and no one will ever be prosecuted…. Shame is not a big issue with politicians and they don’t react to it… comes with the job. But it does occupy lots of time on congressional floors for grand standing, Proclaiming a high level of false Integrity….

I remember back in the 50’s, Vehicle bumpers were supposed to take a 3 to 5 Mile Per Hour hit by law without damage. Cars could push other cars stuck in traffic, snow or to get them started with absolutely no damage…. There were big beautiful steel chrome bumpers with springs attaching to vehicles. Today. with all our technical superiority…. Just touch anything with a bumper and it’s $3,000 to repair it…. I remember each year the new cars coming out… you could tell the make, model, and year. Beautiful… now we’ve adapted to the Progressive new European Look…. Ugly and fragile… Recall the GTO, Mustang, Corvette, 442, Charger, Regatta, Malibu, Thunderbird, 300, El Camino, Ranchero, Bronco…. Cool Cars…. And people could fix & maintain their cars…… Brakes, wires, Points, Condenser, Ignition Coil, Starter, Generator, Regulator, shocks, plugs, Muffler, fix flats… And Service Centers didn’t charge $150 an hour to repair cars. Then the government stepped in…. Catalytic converters, Omission controls requiring major computers… adding multiples to costs and efficiency…. Loaded Pontiac Bonneville in 58… $2,800 out the door….

There was lots of talk regarding Student Loans….. Died Down…. Ever wonder why… Perhaps Universities who took the money from students are leveraging the media to quiet down…… Perhaps there is a unpublicized effort to require the colleges to participate in repaying the loans…. They Should… all interest should be paid by the colleges if not the principal….. It’s time to reveal the truth in all this lending……..

The last conquest in war for the world and USA was World War II. There was a plan, goals were established with our allies and together, we achieved Victory for the world. If the news media was as powerful then, as they are now with their misinformation, outside sources organizing against our country, and government officials condemning our President, we would never have prevailed…. Until the voters once more support our government, considering true facts and true History, our country will remain in turmoil. When we stray from our Constitution, we’re like a ship without a rudder…. We’ve lost our way. Closing the government for Political gain is destroying ourselves from within… Voters have the power…….. Look around….Is this what we want….. If not, time to take action.....
