Ha: Jimmy Kimmel Tricked Hillary Clinton Supporters Into Liking Donald Trump's Tax Plan

By Christine Rousselle

 

 

Last night on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Kimmel pranked self-identified Hillary Clinton supporters and Donald Trump haters into endorsing elements of Donald Trump's tax plan. Trump released his plan, which raises taxes on the very right and slashes corporate tax rates, as well as eliminates income taxes for people making less than $25,000 a year, two days ago.

 

Check it out, it's pretty hilarious:  Hillary Supporters Like Trump's Tax Plan

 

To be fair, the election is still well over a year away, and voters have plenty of time to learn the nuances of their candidates' positions before making a decision in the voter's booth. This being said, hopefully this video is able to open eyes on both the left and the right to remind people that their preconceived notions about a candidate may not be correct.

Why Isn't the Congressional Black Caucus Protecting Blacks?

COMMENTARY
By Frances Rice
 
The undisputed result of liberalism/socialism is death, destruction and poverty.  Author Michael Scheuer wrote, the Democratic Party is the party of the four S’s:  slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism.  A pundit wrote, the Republican Party is the party of the four F’s:  faith, family, freedom and fairness.
 
Due to the utter corruption of the mainstream media and our education system, both run by liberals, Democrats have been able to indoctrinate most black Americans into believing that liberalism is good and conservatism is bad.   In addition to the NAACP, another ally of the Democratic Party’s destructive policies is the Congressional Black Caucus. 
 
 
Below is an excellent explanation from a black perspective about what it means to be conservative.

Tax Reform for Security and Prosperity

COMMENTARY
By Frances Rice
 
Donald Trump publicized his tax proposal in the below article that was published in “The Wall Street Journal.”  His tax plan is designed to spur economic growth that will generate both an increase in private sector jobs and federal revenues.
 
On a lighter side, inquiring minds want to know.  If elected, will President Donald Trump "DOWNGRADE" to ride on Air Force One?  Here is the link to a video with a tour of Mr. Trump’s private 757 jet:  https://www.youtube.com/embed/UZq3iCn2y74?rel=0

Tax Reform for Security and Prosperity
Four tax brackets: 0%, 10%, 20% and 25%. No marriage penalty, no alternative minimum tax.
 
By Donald J. Trump
 
The first priority for the government of the United States should be to provide security for its people. That security includes removing uncertainty and making sure that the economic future of the country is assured through better deals, smarter trade agreements and tax policies that unburden the middle class and unleash the private sector.
 
My approach to tax policy will do just what needs to be done. For all Americans, the uncertainty and complexity of a tax code written for special interests and the very rich will be removed and a clear future will be available for all. My tax plan has several goals. Let me make it clear that this set of policies takes dead aim at eliminating deductions and loopholes available to special interests and the wealthy, as well as those deductions made redundant or unnecessary by the much-lower rates every person or business will be paying.
 
In particular, I am proposing ending the current treatment of carried interest for hedge funds and other speculative partnerships that do not grow businesses or create jobs.
 
The first goal of the plan will be to provide tax relief. If you are a single person making less than $25,000 or married or filing jointly and earning less than $50,000, you will not owe any income tax. This will remove some 75 million households from the income-tax rolls.
 
Second, the tax code will be simplified. Instead of multiple tax brackets with multiple variations, there will be only four brackets: 0%, 10%, 20% and 25%. This new code eliminates the marriage penalty and the alternative minimum tax while providing the lowest tax rates since before World War II. Further, this plan eliminates the death tax, thus allowing families to keep what has been earned.
 
The proposed policies will allow the middle class to keep most of their deductions while eliminating many of the deductions for the very rich. With more money in middle-class pockets, consumer spending will increase, college savings will grow and personal debt will decline.
 
Third, we need to grow the American economy. For the past seven years, the economy has been at a virtual standstill. Growth in the gross domestic product of less than 2% a year is pathetic. We need to spur production, bring home jobs and make it easier to invest in America.
 
My plan states that any business of any size will pay no more than 15% of its business income in taxes. This low rate will make corporate inversions unnecessary and will make America one of the most competitive markets in the world. This plan will also require companies with capital offshore to bring that money back to the U.S. at a repatriation rate of only 10%. Right now, the money is not being brought back because the tax is so high.
 
Finally, this plan will not add to our deficits or to the national debt. With disciplined budget management and elimination of waste, fraud and abuse, this plan will allow the nation to balance the budget, boost the economy to record levels, clear the backlog of workers sitting at home and begin the process of reducing the debt. With moderate growth, this plan will be revenue-neutral. As president, I will pursue policies that will ensure huge economic growth and put this country on the road to extraordinary prosperity.
 
Any candidate can roll out a tax policy, but this one has the economic well-being of the country and its citizens at the forefront. This plan is bold, but it is also cast in reality and common sense. Growing the economy will provide the security we need to make America great again.
 
Mr. Trump is a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination.

Black Pastor Tells NAACP Abortion Is ‘Racist Genocide’

Commentary

By Frances Rice

Planned Parenthood butchers the unborn for profit. That organization was caught dealing in aborted baby body parts. On video, top officials were exposed cutting probably illegal deals and coldly discussing techniques to extract certain "valuable" parts, while joking about pricing and procedures. 

One horrific video shows a Planned Parenthood doctor, harvesting the brain of an aborted baby who was still alive.  This is both immoral and outrageous!  Planned Parenthood, our nation's giant abortion mill, gets about $500 million from our federal government each year. 

The time has come to defund Planned Parenthood and end using our tax dollars to fund this criminal syndicate.

The below article provides the details of how Planned Parenthood targets black babies and states the chilling revelation that "the most dangerous place for an African American is in the womb."

Black Pastor Tells NAACP Abortion Is 'Racist Genocide'

By Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

 

At the annual NAACP convention in Philadelphia, one pastor protested the group's support for legal abortion, using a huge, attention-grabbing poster of the confederate flag side by side with the picture of an aborted child.

Under the confederate flag were the words: "Evil done to us?" while the words under the 10-week-old fetus were: "Evil done by us?"

Rev. Clenard Childress, the black pastor of the New Calvary Baptist Church in Montclair, N.J, is campaigning to have the NAACP reverse its 2004 decision to endorse abortion, asking pointedly whether the black lives of aborted children matter to the NAACP.

No stranger to provocation, Childress has stated that "the most dangerous place for an African American is in the womb."

Calling abortion in America "racist genocide," Childress said that since 1973, after the Supreme Court legalized abortion on demand, 13 million African-American babies have been put to death through abortion. He finds it especially "hypocritical" that the nation's first black president provides funding for abortion giant Planned Parenthood.

Childress, sporting a black-and-white t-shirt with the words, "Stop Funding Racism," said he is "appalled by NAACP silence" over what he calls a "pernicious attack" on African-Americans.

"Barack Obama and his administration is funding Planned Parenthood" to the tune of $545 million a year, he said. That's "very hypocritical" when so many black babies are aborted, he said.

A known supporter of eugenics, Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger famously wrote to Dr. Clarence Gamble of Smith College:

We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don't want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.

One such minister is having none of it.

The abortion rate among black American women, Childress points out, is five times higher than among white women, and in 2012, more black babies in New York City were aborted than carried to term, 31,328 to 24,758.

Childress is president of Life Education and Resource Network, Northeast. LEARN is the largest African-American pro-life group in the US. In 2002, he inaugurated the pro-life website Blackgenocide.org, set up to educate the African-American community with the truth about abortion. The website draws parallels between black slavery in the United States, the Nazi party programs in Germany, and the pro-abortion movement in America.

Childress took his controversial message to the 3,000 attendants at the 106th Annual NAACP Convention at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Though his group had several posters, the one drawing the most attention was that carrying the large confederate flag.

"This connects the dots better than the others," he said.

Former Radical Islamist: Yeah, Ben Carson Is Right About Muslims

By Leah Barkoukis
 
 
Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson drew the ire of both Democrats and some Republican presidential candidates after saying on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday that he would “not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation.” 
 
Even after the criticism, Carson refused to walk back his comment, although he did offer more clarification.
 
"Those Republicans that take issue with my position are amazing," he wrote in a Facebook statement. "Under Islamic Law, homosexuals – men and women alike – must be killed. Women must be subservient. And people following other religions must be killed. I know that there are many peaceful Muslims who do not adhere to these beliefs. But until these tenants are fully renounced ... I cannot advocate any Muslim candidate for President."
 
And to be fair, he told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that he wouldn’t advocate putting a Christian in the office if they wanted to turn the country into a theocracy. “We don't put people at the head of our country whose faith might interfere with them carrying out the duties of the Constitution,” he said.
 
Not only do a number of Americans agree with his comment—based on the amount of money pouring into his campaign since then—but he’s also received support from Dr. Tawfik Hamid, a former Islamic extremist.
 
“As a Muslim — and particularly as a former member of a radical Islamist group — I can state unequivocally that Dr. Carson is correct,” Hamid wrote in a column. “Without a single exception, the approved Islamic literature teaches violent principles such as killing apostates, beating women, killing gays, and enslaving female war prisoners for sexual purposes.”
 
“If anyone doubts this, or wishes to challenge it, they need to prove this to be wrong,” he continued, adding that no Islamic texts exist which reject the “traditional barbaric principles of Islamic law.”
 
“These Shariah values and principles, which are so hostile to the American Constitution, are still an integral part of mainstream Islam,” he noted.
 
Thus, Carson is absolutely correct.

Report: 3 million more children in poverty under Obama, 22% of all kids

By Paul Bedard

Ever since President Obama took office, the poverty rate among children has soared to 22 percent, with three million more children living in poor conditions, according to an authoritative new report.

The 2015 "KIDS COUNT" report from the Annie E. Casey Foundation said that the percentage of children living in poverty jumped from 18 percent in 2008, the year Obama was elected, to 22 percent in 2013. It added that the rate dropped from 2012 to 2013, in line with the improving economy.

The rate of child poverty for 2013 ranged from a low of 10 percent in New Hampshire, to a high of 34 percent in Mississippi.

The child poverty rate among African Americans (39 percent) was more than double the rate for non-Hispanic whites (14 percent) in 2013.

The report also explained that a lack of jobs or good income above the poverty rate of $23,624 was the reason more children have grown up in poor families.

In 2013, three in 10 children (22.8 million) lived in families where no parent had full-time, year-round employment. Since 2008, the number of such children climbed by nearly 2.7 million.

Roughly half of all American Indian children (50 percent) and African-American children (48 percent) had no parent with full-time, year-round employment in 2013, compared with 37 percent of Latino children, 24 percent of non-Hispanic white children and 23 percent of Asian and Pacific Islander children."

Democrats' old, white presidential field

 
Democrats’ old, white presidential field and reliance on retread candidates shows there is “something wrong” with the party.
 
Ed Rogers writes in the Washington Post: There is something wrong with the Democratic Party. The candidate who is providing the only real sizzle in the Democratic presidential race right now is Bernie Sanders, a 74-year-old socialist senator from Vermont who is something of an oddball.
 
Hillary Clinton, their front-runner, a soon-to-be 68-year-old party stalwart, is stale, bogged down in scandal and can’t draw a crowd.
 
So, who is it that many in the Democratic Party are looking to as the party’s “savior” in the face of the unremarkable Democratic field so far?
 
Answer: Joe Biden, a 72-year-old, former six-term senator from Delaware and the current vice president.
 
And this isn’t the only evidence that the Democrats have a problem.
 
There is fundamentally something wrong with their candidate pool.
 
In the 2014 midterm elections, the Democrats’ top two senatorial candidates, Alison Lundergan Grimes in Kentucky and Michelle Nunn in Georgia, were generational retreads trying to capitalize on famous fathers from a generation ago.
 
And the Democrats’ trophy gubernatorial candidate, Charlie Crist, was a former Republican governor of Florida.
