Baltimore Rat Feud: What People Are Missing
| |
By Devvy |
Oh, my. Last week was quite something
following the bonfire lit by President Trump taking racist U.S. House Rep.
Elijah Cummings to the wood shed over the ruination of yet another major city,
Baltimore, MD run by Democrats. Of course, Cummings got his drawers in such a
twist he forgot his own words: Trump is a street fighter and oh, by the
way - when was the last time we had a president willing to expose in blunt
language the massive failure by Democrats destroying major cities with their
socialist and Marxist policies? Not in my lifetime. It's been quite delicious to watch because
what Trump hammered on in his tweets and microphone cannot be denied - except
by slimy vermin like Cummings. I have been to Baltimore many times but not to
the areas covered in this column. For visitors like me it was the fabulous
Baltimore Aquarium located at the Inner Harbor along
with some of the best seafood I've ever eaten. For our fellow Americans who live outside
the 'tourist zones', President Trump smacked down the screamers with the truth: Dems
don't care about hellhole Baltimore — they created it "President Donald Trump called Baltimore a
"disgusting, rat and rodent invested" hellhole, a "corrupt mess" that "no human
being" would want to live in. A lot of people who've never been to Baltimore claimed
to be deeply offended by those remarks. One person who seemed to agree with
them was former Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh. Just last year, she said things
were so bad you could "smell the rotting rats." "The mayor did not explain why she hadn't
cleaned things up. That footage of her remarks got almost no attention when it
ran on a local news station. Neither did the recent story about Baltimore's
deputy police commissioner getting robbed at gunpoint by four thugs while out
to dinner with his wife. People weren't talking about that over dinner in
Georgetown this weekend. If there's one thing virtually everyone in Washington
aggressively doesn't care about, it's Baltimore. It's 40 miles and an entire
world away. You could live your whole life in D.C. and never visit or think
about Baltimore." Certainly not U.S. Speaker of the House,
Nancy Pelosi or America hating fraud, Rep. Ilhan Omar, who were photographed
over in Africa. Yep. August recess time. Who paid for this junket?
Oh, it's a fact- finding mission! "Democrat Ilhan Omar (right) and House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (left) were pictured walking through the 'Door of No
Return' where millions of Africans were shipped into a life of slavery in the
United States." Did they bring up such historical, proven
facts such as African kings and chiefs who sold their own people? It's Time to Face the Whole
Truth About the Atlantic Slave Trade. The author: Mr. Stern taught African
American history at the college level for a decade before becoming historian at
the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum (1977-1999)—where he designed the
museum's first civil rights exhibit. "A year later,
Senegal's president Abdoulaye Wade, "himself the descendant of generations of
slave-owning [and slave-trading] African kings," urged Europeans, Americans,
and Africans to acknowledge publicly and teach openly about their shared
responsibility for the Atlantic slave trade. 7
Wade's remarks came months after the release of Adanggaman, by Ivory
Coast director Roger Gnoan M'bala, "the first African film to look at African
involvement in the slave trade with the West." "Several
television productions of the last decade have acknowledged these facts: Africans
in America (PBS, 1998), Wonders of the African World (PBS, 1999),
and The African Trade (History Channel International, 2000). The latter
begins with the visit by a group of African-Americans to the infamous slave
castle and Door of No Return on Goree Island off the coast of Senegal.
"Appalled by the cruelties of the Europeans," the narrator relates, "the
visitors become curious as to how Africans fell into their hands." "Their African
guide admits that "this history is difficult to tell and hard to believe" but
pulls no punches about African complicity in kidnapping and selling millions of
African people: "All the tribes were involved in the slave trade—no
exemptions." The African-Americans were staggered: "So we really can't blame
the Europeans," one declares, "We sold our own. It takes two." Another visitor
declares, "That's right—money and greed." The program concludes that "white
guilt can never be erased"—but cautions that it is also important to remember
that "black participation lets no one off the hook." The entire piece is well
worth the time to read. Now, who should be paying reparations? Owning another human being and the era of
slavery in this country IS horribly shameful but I had nothing to do with it
nor would I have gone along with it back then. No way. Yet, I am considered a
racist simply because I was born Caucasian. CNN
contributor Joe Lockhart says all Trump supporters are racist: 'Don't hide it
like a coward' Rob
Reiner Says All Trump Supporters are Racist Well, here's a news flash for the race hustlers
out there: My Primary Care doctor has black skin. That's right. My former PC
physician is of Mexican ancestry but, that dear lady and wonderful doctor moved
across the state a few years ago so I had to find a new doctor. Was I a racist
for having a doctor with skin a little darker than mine? There are plenty of Caucasian physicians in
my town. When I look for a doctor or specialist, I check their educational
background, experience; whether they've been sued or had their license
suspended for any reason. I do not check for skin color. As a matter of fact,
there was no photo of my doctor on the pages I searched. Dr. Johnson is a devout Christian man. Very
smart, funny and actually listens to you. A great doctor. If I were a racist
would I have a doctor whose skin color is black? Eat that Trump-haters. Going back to Baltimore. What everyone is overlooking is the fact
that Congress had no constitutional authority to 'give' any grant money to the
city of Baltimore regardless of who represents that district in Congress. Art. 1, Sec. 8 of the U.S. Constitution was
written to address issues that were a common necessity for the new government
and states. Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the
debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United
States; but all duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the
United States; To borrow money
on the credit of the United States; To regulate commerce with foreign nations,
and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes; To establish a
uniform rule of naturalization, and uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies
throughout the United States; To coin money,
regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin, and fix the standard of
weights and measures; To provide for the punishment of counterfeiting the
securities and current coin of the United States; To establish
post offices and post roads; To promote
the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to
authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and
discoveries; To constitute
tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court; To define and punish piracies and
felonies committed on the high seas, and offenses against the law of nations; To
declare war, grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning
captures on land and water; To raise and
support armies, but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer
term than two years; To provide and maintain a navy; To make rules for the
government and regulation of the land and naval forces; To provide for calling
forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and
repel invasions; To provide for
organizing, arming, and disciplining, the militia, and for governing such part
of them as may be employed in the service of the United States, reserving to
the states respectively, the appointment of the officers, and the authority of
training the militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress; To exercise
exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever, over such District (not
exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the
acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States,
and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the consent of the
legislature of the state in which the same shall be, for the erection of forts,
magazines, arsenals, dockyards, and other needful buildings;--And To make all laws
which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing
powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of
the United States, or in any department or officer thereof. [End] To bring uniformity in areas like currency,
trade, national security, war, peace and so forth. There is NOTHING in Art.
1, Sec. 8 giving Congress the authority to steal the fruits of your labor to
give to any city for their internal affairs, business or existence. Congress
has NO authority to act as a bank, lend money to private corporations, banks or
student loans. Democrats always try to use the General
Welfare Clause of the U.S. Constitution - as well as RINOs and know-nothings
like Senatorette Joni Ernst - to justify voting for unconstitutional spending
bills. "The limits
on federal power to legislate for the "general welfare" remains, to
this date, undefined and presumably, boundless The question that begs an answer
is, "if the framers of our Constitution, who labored so resolutely in
Philadelphia that torridly hot summer in 1787 intended the powers of Congress
to have no boundaries, why did they bother to enumerate seventeen?" James
Madison, when asked if the "general welfare" clause was a grant of
power, replied in 1792, in a letter to Henry Lee, [13]
If not only
the means but the objects are unlimited, the parchment [the Constitution]
should be thrown into the fire at once. "I consider
the foundation of the [Federal] Constitution as laid on this ground: That
"all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor
prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States or to the
people." [10th Amendment] To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus
specifically drawn around the powers of Congress is to take possession of a
boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition." --Thomas Jefferson: Opinion on National Bank, 1791. ME 3:146 "[An]
act of the Congress of the United States... which assumes powers... not
delegated by the Constitution, is not law, but is altogether void and of no
force." --Thomas Jefferson: Draft Kentucky
Resolutions, 1798. ME 17:383 Go look at this chart showing HUNDREDS OF
MILLIONS OF BORROWED dollars 'given' in grants in violation of the Constitution.
Baltimore's
30,000 Public Employees Cost Taxpayers $2 Billion But Can't Save Their Own City Why do Americans think we're close to $23 TRILLION
unpayable dollars in debt? Because the U.S. Congress - those reps and senators
who voted to 'give' $16 BILLION BORROWED dollars for local problems in the City
of Baltimore did so in violation of their oath of office. Drugs, crime, infrastructure decay in the
City of Baltimore are NOT federal problems. They are terrible by-products of a
broken society fed by corrupt, inept politicians. In this case Democrats have
ruled that city for a long, long time. Just like sh*holes like LA, SF and NYC.
I'm sorry, folks but the truth is there for all to see. Sean Hannity covered this on his radio show
last week. Out of five high schools, not a single student was math
proficient. Out of 13 high schools (If memory serves me) not a single
student was math and English proficient. Hannity wanted to know how that
was possible? I'll tell you. Some is money. It's true
there has and still is disparity in money doled out to school districts by
states. Slowly but surely that is being fixed. Yes, there are teachers who
shouldn't even be in a classroom because they are badly under educated.
That is the responsibility of your local school board, not Congress. But you know what? It all starts at home
with mom and dad. Not mom sucking on a crack pipe or dad (if one can even
be found) hanging on the street corner wearing jeans so low you can see his
butt-crack. Hanging with other illiterates either doing or dealing drugs or
drunks. No amount of money for schools can
educate a child who doesn't want to learn, period. The
desire to learn must come early from those that child loves: Mom and dad who
should be role models. Not mom birthing her ninth child on the taxpayer's dime
and making welfare a way of life. Is it any wonder millions of children in this
country end up having no hope by the time they reach intermediate school? Who feeds black Americans propaganda making
them think they will never amount to much without mother government taking care
of them from birth to death? Democrat politicians who NEED to keep black
Americans on the plantation for votes. Ever read Dr. Ben Carson's personal history
and how his poor mother ended up raising him and his brother by working three
jobs at a time? His poor mother not just financially; the man she married
turned out to be a bigamist. But, Dr. Carson's mother, despite the entire deck
stacked against her, taught her sons that anything is possible if you work hard
enough. So her son went on to become a fine man, a
world re-nouned neurosurgeon. Dr. Carson didn't
have an easy time of it but anything worth having doesn't come without challenges, determination and courage. That's why political whores like Cummings and other
prominent Democrats and too many in the Hollywood crowd hate Dr. Ben Carson. Thanks to people like him, Candace Owens, Mychal
Massie and other freedom-loving Americans who happen to be black are getting
their message out there. You can rise above your circumstances and be
successful at whatever you choose to do. Before drugs, rap "music" and social media
- black America in the 1950s. Churches played a big role back then. Sadly, too
many churches all across the country now are nothing but PC social gatherings. Today these are role models for young girls?
Beyonce at a movie opening for children, The Lion King. From the side
you can clearly see her pubic area. In another dress for same movie opening,
only thing missing is the nipple. Skank. Nicki Minaj. Singer who apparently can't
sell her tunes unless dressed like a stripper. Unlike some of the greatest
black female singers ever like Etta James, Nina Simone, Mahalia Jackson, Dinah
Washington and many more who didn't perform nearly naked on stage. They had
real class. The bottom line is the City of Baltimore's
elected officials and her people are responsible for cleaning up their city.
Not me, not a hairdresser in Anchorage, Alaska or the local mechanic in
Orlando, Florida. Congress has no right to steal the fruits of our labor to
fund or 'grant' any city. $16 BILLION borrowed dollars pissed down the
rat-hole (pun intended) that never should have been thrown at Baltimore except
for votes. One can hope the people of Baltimore, regardless
of skin color or ethnicity, wake up and vote out the current crop of scoundrels
and take back their city. Note: For a
thorough, comprehensive education on the Fed, the income tax, education,
Medicare, SS, the critical, fraudulent ratification of the Seventeenth
Amendment and more, be sure to order my book, Taking
Politics Out of Solutions. 400 pages of facts and solutions. Links: And, speaking of rats: Elijah
