Wait….if the Secretary of State makes $145,000 a year….?

~ Conservative Momma ~ Leave a comment

To the busy mom and dad running their kids to football practice and after school activities, the term “Pay for Play” seems like a bunch of jargon. “Pay for Play” ….yes we have all heard the phrase used in this election, but what exactly does it mean? Let’s take a closer look shall we?

In June 2014, Hillary Clinton told Diane Sawyer in an interview:

“You have no reason to remember, but we came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt,” Clinton said. “We had no money when we got there, and we struggled to piece together the resources for mortgages for houses, for Chelsea’s education. It was not easy. Bill has worked really hard. And it’s been amazing to me. He’s worked very hard.” 

Here’s the clip if you are like me and want a visual:

So the Clinton’s had no money after Bill was President. They had a couple book deals, but nothing to amount to their current estimated 50 to 100 million net worth. In 1997 the William J Clinton Foundation was formed. In 2013, it was renamed The Clinton Foundation. A charitable organization that helps fight poverty and AIDS —it does a lot of good things right….but it’s a NON PROFIT. To clarify, you don’t make a profit off of a NON PROFIT. Well….the Foundation today is worth billions. (Geeez lot’s of charitable givers out there I guess.)

 The Clinton’s explain their wealth by saying they were paid a lot of money for  doing speeches all over the world. Okay, so what!? The Clinton’s got rich off of making “speeches.” I mean Chelsea Clinton, who is 36 years old, lives in a 10 million dollar apartment in New York City-she’s made a speech or two right? And the Clinton’s own numerous homes and millions upon millions in assets alone-all due to speeches 😉 😉 . We are told they got wealthy and rich off of speeches. Geeez, thank you speeches! 5 million for a speech totally normal right? No, it’s not- here’s where the “Pay for Play” comes in to play. While Hillary was Secretary of State, making 145,000 dollars a year, the Clinton’s and the Clinton Foundation got suuuuuuuuper rich! How? Hillary would grant favors to big donors, many who were foreign governments.  When these donors would contribute money to the Clinton “charity,” Bill & Hillary Clinton, would give these donors beneficial treatment from the State Department! Whaaaat?! Yes….. and THIS IS ILLEGAL by the way. There are several examples of these Pay for Play scenarios in the Wiki Leaks Email’s (that have NEVER been wrong or disproved). Last week’s hacked Podesta emails revealed an arranged Pay for Play with the King of Morocco. The King of Morocco agreed to host a “Clinton Global Initiative Summit” and give $12 million to the Clintons, but only if Hillary Clinton attended the May 2015 meeting. Huma Abedin wrote to Podesta, “Her presence was a condition for the Moroccans to proceed so there is no going back on this.” So…..Hillary takes 12 million from the Moroccans while Secretary of State and tells the Moroccan King she’ll show up to the Summit. This is a “you pay me, and I’ll do this for you” aka -Pay for Play. NOT ALLOWED AND ILLEGAL. Hillary SOLD her Office as Secretary of State to the Highest bidder!  She would put our whole Country up for sale if she became President! Hillary gave 20% of the U.S. Uranium to Russia…..hmmmm ….I wonder what the “Charity” got for that?  Big donors were appointed as Ambassadors in this whole scandal, governments granted things we have yet to uncover! This whole thing is a mess and these hacked emails are exposing her crimes ….yes CRIMES, and how deep her Pay for Play scandal goes. Which is why the FBI has re-launched their investigation on her-more emails discovered-more dirt uncovered!

So….connect the dots. The Clinton’s get paid BIG….absurd amounts of money for “speeches,” and then they grant favors to whoever comes with a nice wad of cash “donated” to the Clinton Foundation (with a string a huge string attached). This whole “Pay for Play set up” HAD to be secret and Covered up, because it was and IS ILLEGAL. This is why Hillary had to have her own server. This is why ALL those emails were deleted. There had to be no trace of this! I hear Liberals say “enough with the email talk.” Really? Really? Selling out America is TREASON!!! Sorry not gonna just let the “email thing” go when these emails are exposing a Presidential Nominee’s illegal activities which could/should land her in jail!

What does this tell our kids? I mean honestly…..that you can sell out your country, for money? Greed is ugly, it corrupts and destroys everything it comes in contact with. America must not let Greed enter the White House.

Clean House….Drain the Swamp!

For years I have listened to Democrats, Independents, and Republicans vent about the corruption of our Government. With Congress having a 13% approval rating yet once a politician is elected, they have an over 90% chance of being re-elected. Unseating an incumbent is damn near impossible. These people get to D.C. and they stay in D.C. They lose touch with us. They lose touch with those who sent them to fight FOR change. They instead focus on re-election and pacifying their big donors. The cycle of insanity continues, and the frustration is REAL.

Most people hate Politicians. The concept of being a “Public Servant” has evolved into pimping ones self out to the biggest donor….. a pathetic pandering to those who will write the BIG checks. Promises of “change and hope” only end up being the same old same old. Witnessing this graveling is embarrassing and sad…..just sad. These politicians are politicians. How can we expect change from them, when they know nothing outside of being politicians?

We have got 93 million Americans who are out of work. Our debt has doubled in the last eight years, now standing at 19 trillion dollars. We have almost 50 million Americans living in poverty. Our taxes have increased and our ranking Globally in education has declined. We are a nation divided, a nation in need of REAL CHANGE. But how can we expect change if we keep doing the same thing over and over? Einstein defines this as insanity….are we insane? Perhaps.

If your child is sick, would you hire a politician to treat them? What knowledge does this politician bring on the treatment of a sick child? Politicians who have been in D.C. for term after term are not experts on change, but they are simply experts at being re-elected. If they were really knowledgeable at fixing the problems we face, we wouldn’t be in the mess we are in. If they were change makers, we’d see CHANGE. Yes, they can give a rousing speech, shake hands, kiss babies, and cause you to write a check to their campaign, but besides that, they lack the know how in problem solving. I wouldn’t take my child to a politician for treatment. I’d take them to a Doctor.

It’s time to solve the problems we face by electing problem solvers. It’s time to stop hiring people who have no knowledge of the private sector. It’s time to elect individuals that know how to create jobs, because they have actually created jobs. It’s time to appoint members in the Presidential Cabinet that KNOW HOW to head the Department they are placed in because they have lead in that capacity in the private sector. It’s time to enact Term Limits on Congress, and elect Congressmen and Women who are SOLUTION PROVIDERS. In order to properly treat our country, we have to hire people that know how to implicate the treatment needed, because they have done it in the private sector! These people exist, they just have to be given the shot…..what is there to lose?

With the recent re-opening of the FBI’s investigation of Hillary and her email server, we have to realize that if Hillary were elected, we the AMERICAN people would be watching a case unfold over the next year and a half. The issuing of an indictment and quite possibly a trial of Hillary Clinton. If this happens, America is put on hold, and other countries continue to fill the leadership role that America once played. We sit in limbo watching as Hillary tries to defend herself against her own trail of mass corruption and deceit.

A clear choice is in front us– More of the same OR a Change agent.

You don’t like Trump? Who said the President had to be your best pal?

We desperately NEED CHANGE and we NEED to begin healing our broken country. In order to see change, you have to make changes. You have the ability to stop the insanity of electing the same people over and over again and hoping for a different result. You can stop this cycle. Your vote is your voice, let your voice be heard loud and clear by shaking up a political establishment entrenched in back door deals and corruption….

DRAIN THE SWAMP.

 

My breakdown of FBI reopening Hillary’s email server investigation:

~ Conservative Momma ~ Leave a comment

Today, Director of the FBI James Comey announced they were reopening the investigation on Hillary’s Email Server. This major major major October surprise was sent as a letter to Congress:

“In connection with an unrelated case, the FBI has learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation. I am writing to inform you that the investigative team briefed me on this yesterday, and I agree that the FBI should take appropriate investigative steps designed to allow investigators to review these emails to determine whether they contain classified information, as well as to assess their importance to our investigation.” 

Just minutes ago we discovered that the “unrelated case” was the investigation of Anthony Weiner’s sexting case. The FBI has seized electronic devices belonging to Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin, Hillary’s top aide, who is the ex-wife of Weiner.

What is the MOST IRONIC is that after Huma Abedin announced she was separating from Anthony Weiner, Trump released this statement:

fullsizerender-26

Trump was spot on with all of this –to so carelessly and recklessly allow for classified information to be compromised is completely uncalled for and makes one totally disqualified for President!

The fact that Dir. Comey reopened a case 11 days before the Presidential Election means that the information discovered is so damning that to withhold it, could land him in jail and anyone else covering the case! Which leads me to think if Hillary were to be elected, her entire first year as President would be spent testifying before Congress and once again under investigation. This essentially would lead to an impeachment, because there’s no way Comey would reopen this investigation if it wasn’t clear that classified information was on Hillary’s server and was quite possibly compromised. Let’s remember-Hillary before Congress and UNDER OATH, said no classified information was sent or recieved:

“There was nothing marked classified on my emails, either sent or received. And I want to respond ….”

Jordan interjected, “You use the right term there – use ‘marked.’ That’s the one – that’s what you – you used the revised statement there.”

Clinton continued, “Well, but that’s, well, congressman, there was a lot of confusion because many, many Americans have no idea how the classification process works. And therefore I wanted to make it clear that there is a system within our government, certainly within the State Department, where material that is thought to be classified is marked such, so that people have the opportunity to know how they are supposed to be handling those materials. And that’s why it became clearer, I believe, to say that nothing was marked classified at the time I sent or received it.”

Let’s remember folks that Martha Stewart went to jail ….JAIL for lying under OATH, and NO classified information was involved in her case, neither was the compromising of AMERICAN LIVES-if confidential info was sent.

Hillary has also stated she doesn’t know what “C” stood for, to cover herself if she were to lie.  Yet in 2010 Hillary lectures on Cyber Security and not using personal emails or personal servers. Do as I say, not as I do:

 

I have family that has access to classified information. If they send an email from their “work” it is always marked unclassified as a disclaimer at the bottom of the email! This is OBVIOUS information to any Civilian -so if you have ANY clearance You know when you are dealing with CLASSIFIED information! This IS A BIG DEAL. If classified information can be found by an enemy of the United States that puts my little family and every American out there in grave danger!

Also Wikileak’s has just noted that they will be dropping a bombshell on all this tomorrow. Perhaps Comey realized all this FBI cover up will be exposed if he doesn’t do something quick! Let’s watch this thing play out, I will update this blog as info comes in.

Millennials and Trump

~ Conservative Momma ~ Leave a comment

Many write off the millennial vote. Many think that people ages 18-35 are simply uninformed or oblivious to our every day realities. The video below proves this not to be true AT ALL! Meet 23 year old Luke, a Colorado carpenter and small business owner. Bailey, a 22 year old cosmetologist and Owner of a spa and salon. Oscar, a 20 year old  Welder, and Aaron, a 19 year old Undecided voter.

All four of these millennials are highly educated on the issues at hand. They are not emotionally casting their vote, but instead voting on policy and the key issues at play in this election.

As these young people discuss their concerns, through a thought provoking dialogue, we witness Aaron, who was undecided, begins to lean towards Trump in his decision making process. Watch and Share with the millennials in your life, they could be the deciding factor in this election and determine the course of our country for the next 40 years.

My top 5 on why as a Momma, I support Trump.

~ Conservative Momma ~ Leave a comment

I have had some requests that I not focus so much on Hillary and how wrong she would be for America but instead focus on why I am supporting Trump. I first want to say, I have focused on Hillary and her corruption because the main stream media is not covering this-therefore, it is up to informed individuals to get the word out that this woman-if elected-most likely would be impeached with the information coming out on her now through the Wikileaks emails.

To be honest, it was hard to narrow it down to just 5, but this blog was getting too long so I condensed this down to the top 5 reasons on why as a momma, I support a Trump Presidency.

1. Supreme Court:

Trump would not only be filling Conservative Justice Scalia’s replacement, but also an additional 3 new justices. Since 1971, the average age of retirement for a Supreme Court justice has been roughly around 79 years. Ginsburg is 83, Kennedy is 80, and Breyer is 78. On Wednesday night, in the last Presidential Debate, we heard Donald Trump unveil the gruesomeness and horror of Late Term Abortion that is happening now in America. This can be stopped under a Conservative Supreme Court! There is no need for a Late Term Abortion. If a mother’s life is in danger late in the pregnancy, a baby can be delivered  via c-section. This unnecessary taking of life can be stopped. As a mother of three, I can testify that each of my children communicated with me in my last trimester. They would kick me when they heard music or my husbands voice and when I would push on my belly they’d kick me back. The life inside, IS a baby. A life. In a late term abortion a most gruesome dismemberment takes place as well as the crushing of the baby’s skull. That baby can feel as it’s life is being taken. Millions of lives would be saved under a Conservative Supreme Court-Trump has the opportunity to get this done and end these heartless murders occurring all across our country.

2. Border Security:

No, it’s not racist or bigoted to want to secure our borders. You lock your house at night, why? To keep those inside you love and care about-safe. We should secure our borders because we want to keep those we love and care about -safe in America. There is a legal way to immigrate to America, a proper vetting process is in place- so we know those migrating to America love America as much as we all do. A Country without borders in not a country. Currently we have tons and tons of drugs pouring into our southern border, as well as illegal guns. Our current administration is refusing to enforce our current immigration laws. They are being told to turn a blind eye to the illegal immigration taking place right now happening in our country. Trump is the First candidate to Ever be endorsed by ICE-Immigration and Customs Endorsement Agency. Trump from the very beginning has stated that many of those coming across our Southern Border have ill intentions. Many -not all, but many are criminals, many want to hurt American citizens. As a mom, I just don’t want to take that risk of drugs, illegal guns, and criminals coming across our border, I want my kids SAFE.

3. The Economy:

Roughly 93 million Americans are out of work. The Labor Force Participation Rate is 62.8%-not good. We need somebody in office that actually HAS created jobs. I am smack dab in the Middle Class. Often pay check to pay check with a few bucks here and there tucked away for savings. My husband is the primary bread winner and I have chosen to be home with my children while they are little. What happens to the Middle Class directly affects my family. Trump wants to lower taxes across the board. Hillary wants to raise taxes across the board-property tax, sales tax, estate tax, income tax, the death tax (yes you get taxed for dying), Social Security and medicare as well. Hillary’s tax plan is to increase taxes on small businesses and corporations. These entities  ARE the JOB PROVIDERS. When you hit the Job Providers with tax increases — wages drop, pay raises stay stagnant and benefits often suffer too-this hurts a middle class family trying to make it in the world.

4. Education:

Trump unlike Hillary is a firm believer in school choice. Hillary is backed by the Teacher’s Unions that deplore school choice and put teachers instead of students needs first. Children have different needs, different interests and different ways of learning. Limiting a child to the local public school down the block, that is poorly rated, is limiting the child in life. Choice creates competition. If a school is performing poorly, why should a child be forced to go there? The ability for anyone to be able to CHOOSE where they send their children to school, I believe bridges the gap of economic status. Rich or poor doesn’t matter-you should be able to go to the best performing public school and receive the best education offered! At the end of the day, I -mom, know what is best for my children. Trump is against Common Core. Common Core in short is a new set of standards that must be met by the student in each grade level. Sounds harmless right? These Standards were set by the National Governors Association and the Council of Chief State School Officers, two non-profit organizations that answer to no federal or state agency or parents’ rights group-that’s not good, who holds these guys accountable? Common Core is test based….a TON of tests…with every test taken, the backers of Common Core are lining their pockets with $$$. This Curriculum does not focus on each child’s learning ability, it focuses on passing the test. When I crammed for a test when I was a kid, I quickly forgot the info….this set-up does not educated, it rapidly fires information without digestion. Follow the money trail and you’ll see why Common Core is being pushed. Our children should not be pawns of profit, while their individual educational needs suffer. (I could write a whole blog dedicated to this.)

5. Religious Liberty:

My faith is the Most important thing to me, and as a momma- I lean on my faith daily for guidance in raising good kids that love people. Hillary most recently has called me “irredeemable” because I support Trump. Irredeemable-meaning I can’t be forgiven. I have been redeemed by Jesus, and the last time I checked that’s not the role of government. When one presidential candidate calls millions of Americans irredeemable…that has gotta make you pause. After the recent Wikileaks email’s the question of Religious Liberty moves to Front and Center! From Hillary’s Campaign Chairman-Podesta’s leaked emails have exposed just how the Hillary camp really feels about Catholicism /Christianity:

 “Many of the most powerful elements of the conservative movement are all Catholic (many converts) from the SC and think tanks to the media and social groups. It’s an amazing bastardization of the faith. They must be attracted to the systematic thought and severely backwards gender relations and must be totally unaware of Christian democracy.”

“there needs to be a Catholic Spring, in which Catholics themselves demand the end of a middle ages dictatorship and the beginning of a little democracy and respect for gender equality in the Catholic church.” He urges the Clinton team to “plant the seeds of the revolution” to “change Catholic teaching.”

Not to worry, Podesta replies: “We created Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good to organize for a moment like this … Likewise Catholics United.” He adds, “I’ll discuss with Tara. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend is the other person to consult.”

Calling Catholics/Christians “backwards” and stating that the teachings of Christianity need to be changed?! God’s word does not change, it is the same yesterday, today and forever-this is the foundation of our Faith! Jesus did not give his life, so Hillary could come along and start dictating how how we are to believe. Government has no business in religion. Our religious Rights are protected by the First Amendment. I will also add, when Hillary was asked in the last Debate if the Constitution stood “as is”…..she didn’t answer the question. Trump DID answer the question, and stated The Constitution must not be tampered with.

So there it is….these are only my top 5….I could keep going, but this blog has gotten way too long! 😉
