Only way out of that hole is to grow the economy.

2%..huh. Another headline to good to check. Tax cuts are just kicking in for middle class paychecks. Something in the neighborhood of 5 million people getting bonuses.

As Deficit Soars Toward $1 Trillion, Congress Shrugs and Keeps Spending

"WASHINGTON — Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin urged Congress on Tuesday to raise the federal government’s statutory borrowing limit and said Washington must soon grapple with the mounting federal debt, just as lawmakers are embarking on a significant spending spree.

Annual deficits are creeping up to $1 trillion a year and the national debt has topped $20 trillion. On Monday, Treasury said that the United States will need to borrow $441 billion in privately-held debt this quarter, the largest sum since 2010 when the economy was emerging from the worst downturn since the Great Depression."

No body promised bonuses. First pay checks with tax cut this month.

After smashing records for over a year, the Dow index finally makes a correction and becomes the property of Donald Trump.. until it the next up tick.

Obama was getting records over half the time. So now it's a thing for you guys, but back when Obama was President and I was pointing it out, it wasn't?

Evelyn Rodriguez, Freddy Cuevas, Elizabeth Alvarado & Robert Mickens. 2 teen daughters — Kayla Cuevas and Nisa Mickens — close friends on Long Island. In Sept. 2016, on eve of Nisa’s 16th Birthday, neither came home. Murdered by MS-13.

And the Dems just sat there GROANING at Trump mentioning victims of illegal alien crime. Unbelievable.

As someone said: "Looks like someone put Super Glue on the Dems seats" when President Trump said; "We proudly stand for the National Anthem”

Didn't mention the woman murdered by alt right, same people he tried to draw a moral equivalency to those protesting.

Gingrich on Hannity right now going off the crazy train...

Back to Bitchin' Rides.

Not only did the Dems show their hatred for Trump tonight, but they also showed how anti-American they are

 

[mr-x]

You gotta be an idiot to peddle this shit and bigger idiot to believe it.

Even spinning the numbers, Trump has been in office 1 year.

Obama was getting records over half the time. So now it's a thing for you guys, but back when Obama was President and I was pointing it out, it wasn't?

I was hoping they'd come up with something more than "that's racist"

U mad?

Melania manage to made a pant suit look good.

 

[JB Lions]

Maybe illegal immigrants can just start killing people with bump stocks, then they will get a pass.

Nope. Neither is my 401K. The bottom bars are volume.
Dow Jones Industrial Avg for the last 10 years.

Not annualized

Maybe they could just apply to be citizens. Nobody is in a rush to kick them out of the country as long as they are following the law.

Need to prevent this from happening every 10 years.

So was Melania sending a message last night, wearing a white pantsuit? Every time the camera cut away to her it looked like she was scowling at him. Other than her entrance (alone), she didn't look like happy camper. Barron on the other hand looked like he was having a good time.

Gang members killing someone isn't an immigration problem, it's a gang violence problem. There are plenty of home grown gangs with violent US citizen gang members committing the same crimes.

Gang members killing someone isn't an immigration problem, it's a gang violence problem. There are plenty of home grown gangs with violent US citizen gang members committing the same crimes.

When those gang members come the the USA using a loophole called "unaccompanied minor act", it's an immigration problem. Obama administration put hard-core criminals in a high-schools for political correctness. Not like this was a one-off occurrence.

"In the Washington region alone, at least 42 young people who crossed into the United States by themselves have been involved in MS-13 violence over the past three years, The Post found. That includes 19 charged in connection with slayings or attempted slayings and four who were killed." <-- THAT'S A CRIME WAVE

Fox news is blasting the democrats for sitting on their hands during good news. A lot of republicans want to forget how horrible Donald Trump was on the campaign trail.

Democrats have to stop putting illegal immigrants before American citizens and get something done for the good of the country.

President Trump's policies aren't horrible.

In the meantime, at Guantanamo...

I don't know what Guantanamo is like now, but it's probably better than solitary confinement in a federal prison. Or being tortured by PK or UA.

Better debate, are captured ISIS fighters POW's with rights? Why should they be labeled enemy combatants?
