The last federal budget was signed into law in September 2007 for fiscal year ’08 by George W Bush. Since then, congress has facilitated nine consecutive years of continuing resolutions, debt ceiling increases and Omnibus spending bills.
President Obama never spent a single day in office with a budget. Not one day. The current Paul Ryan initiated CR/Ominibus spending package ends on April 1st, 2017. [Not coincidentally the same due date for President Trump’s statutorily required first budget proposal, which would take effect October 1st 2017 for fiscal year 2018.]
Regardless of Trump’s budget proposal, and as a direct consequence of the CR/Omnibus approach, congress is going to have to pass another CR spending bill, to fund government operations from April 1st through the end of the fiscal 2017 year (Sept. 30th). Remember, Ryan/McConnell created this financial mess.
Now, get this, today: (more…)
Indiana Governor and now Vice President-Elect Mike Pence, delivered a speech today at the 21st annual Governor’s Luncheon for Scouting.
Toward the end of the speech (last two minutes) Governor Pence delivered an emotional farewell to his constituents, friends and fellow Hoosiers and promised the fullest measure of his effort to deserve this opportunity, and to help lead our nation. Worth Watching:
Kellyanne Conway appeared on Fox Business with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the possibility of Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson as a Secretary of State nominee.
In addition, Conway discusses the current status of the transition process.
According to NBC Andrea Mitchell’s reporting, President-elect Donald Trump has selected Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson as the nominee for Secretary of State.
According to a recent broadcast report NBC’s Andrea Mitchell said two transition sources informed her Tillerson’s selection is planned to be announced sometime next week.
Mitchell also reported that former Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton, would be utilized as Tillerson’s deputy at the State Department. (Video Report Here)
Suffice to say, anyone who has followed politics for any substantive amount of time knows the inherent issue with an operational entity, The U.S. State Department, whose entire mission has been at the epicenter of left-wing globalist advocacy.
If you go back to rethinking the larger State Dept. challenge, Trump’s nominee, any nominee, will essentially be in charge of a U.S. Department that is comprised almost exclusively of Kerry/Clinton/Obama/Bush/UniParty/GOPe big “G” Globalists.

Someone, anyone, please tell me the best play for the Obama administration is not to trot out Clapper and Brennan to blame the Russians…. because the entrenched unwillingness to accept defeat is now getting way too funny.
The latest batch of moonbattery stems from the New York Times and Washington Post who are now quoting mysterious and secret sources, within the CIA, who claim the Russians were involved in the 2016 presidential election… or something:
[…] It is the assessment of the intelligence community that Russia’s goal here was to favor one candidate over the other, to help Trump get elected,” the paper quoted a senior US official as saying. “That’s the consensus view.” (link)
It was already funny when candidate Hillary “pickles” Clinton was blaming a mysterious planetary conspiracy theory created by earth’s nationalist movement under the auspices of oppositional frog memes:
[…] The “vast right-wing conspiracy” went weirdly global today when Hillary Clinton delivered an actual presidential speech claiming she was being chased around by looming global forces of darkness, aligned in ideological intent to ensure her destruction (link)
But, it’s yet another level of absurdity entirely when the actual U.S. intelligence apparatus assigns the official position office of the president to the same global conspiracy.
These people don’t need to be refuted, they need to be laughed at. Period.

Speaker of The House, Paul Ryan, sat down with Fox News host Sean Hannity for a lengthy discussion about the incoming Trump administration, congress, and legislative priorities.
Here’s the full interview. It is essentially self congratulatory explanatory:
Call it “the revenge of John Galt“, call it “the revenge of main street“, call it “the rebuke of the compliance department”, or call it something else…. but what’s brutally missing amid all the pearl-clutching punditry is an acceptance that President Trump is ushering back an era of The Titans of Capitalism.
A succinct comment by thesavyinvester cuts to the brutal heart of the matter:
How ironic… The last 8 yrs ( and frankly much longer ) the non producing bureaucratic state only focused on growing it’s own organisms ( like something Ripley fought against ) rather than fostering yours, will now be run by those that for eons that had to dot their I’s and cross their T’s for all these pencil pushers. Yikes, they will be more uncomfortable than Rodney Dangerfield constantly adjusting his collar and tie during his comedy routine?. No I am not tired of winning, grab the popcorn this will be fun.
