TRUTH HAS NO P[LACE IN THE REIGN OF KING DONALD THE LAST

Why do we not receive the facts? Because Trump has a rule posted in the West Wing:

“The TRUTH has NO PLACE in this REIGN!”

The Border Patrol eliminates the lie detector in the hiring of BP Agents. This is an example of leading from the top. If no one on the administration tells the truth, why should BP Agents? Many of these people are going to earn a living. They tried everything their military experience has taught them. Many tried police work, but may have been unacceptable because of past records. BPO doesn’t check records, just lie detectors. Not any more.

When I was inducted, during my interview, I was asked why I wanted to join the Army. Easy answer for me, “I was drafted and if I simply get inducted, I go infantry. If I volunteer for the draft, I can get a choice of school and qualify for OCS. TRUTH. Some got OUT of the DRAFT by answering, “I want to kill people.” This, during a war.

Thanks to William Lindberg, Tucson, AZ, I got well-researched FACTS. Even though Deceiver-in-Chief Trump lies, “Hundreds of thousand of illegals are pouring through our open border. Pouring through. Poring. Our borders are a disaster.”

Facts: In 2000, 9212 BP Agents apprehended 1,676,438 crossers at a cost of $1,055,444,000 ($629 per apprehension). That was an average of 182 per agent for the year.

In 2016, BP Agents numbered 19,828 and apprehended 364,768 crossers. The cost was $3,642,820,000 ($9,986 per apprehension). That average was 18.4 per agent for the year.

A strong increase in job availability has diminished the number of crossers.

Education is the key to civility

Republicans have been in a “war” against public education for many decades; invariably against funding to support America’s most vital institution(s).  Techniques are to oppose state and Federal  initiatives to decrease taxes spent to support public schooling in states under their control; encourage charter schools owned by wealthy, private Republican donors; supporting anti-education individuals to “run” the State and Federal systems (DeVoss?); allow absurd tuition increases; closing schools in desperately needed areas; cutting educators’ salaries; lacking raises, pensions,  maintenance, supply, extracurricular activities, new books and supportive materials; and, much more. They profess their “support” of education; even falsely claiming to be the “party of education.” This includes K-12, H.S. and College/University levels.  Schoolbooks, such as those produced primarily by the Texas Republican State Board of Education, deny mention of significant historic...
I still have some people - not many - who support trump, as it turns out. Even those of my persuasion. They think trump is good for the U.S. because he supports Israel. I agree, that's great. And, despite what trump created with Obama's being a Muslim, born in Kenya, even Obama was supportive of Israel. Netanyahu was rude to Obama, even during the campaign which people forget about, and still, Obama was kind a respectful.  AGAIN, I say, trump's decision to back out of the Iranian deal would allow Iran to return to their Nuclear dreams, which is NOT good for Israel or the U.S. They would firstTHREATEN Israel often and Blackmail the U.S. That is common sense when you take time to think about it.

Trump is now somehow a religious idol

Some religious fanatics have officially gone bonkers. The far right have been pushing a meme for several years now that the amoral creature, conman, egomaniac, and bad person in the WH “has been sent by God to be ‘a vessel for the purposes of the faithful’ in the role of King of the United States of America,” according to Katherine Stewart.  A firefighter picks up a Bible in a moment of revelation and automatically turns to Isaiah 45. Agent Orange is also number 45. Coincidence? I think so. This disclosure is because Cyrus in Isaiah 45, is “saved” and becomes Emperor of Babylon, freeing the Jews. These Christian Nationalists, no relation to the saner version of ages past, believe the adulterer, misogynist, oaf in the White House, who is encouraging them, will save humanity.  Tony Perkins, Ralph Drollinger and V.P Mike Pence support it, as well. Deport them.
