(Via Facebook) Today I signed two bills that promote women entering and leading the STEM fields — science, technology, engineering, and math. Currently, only 1 in every 4 women who gets a STEM degree is working in a STEM job, which is not fair and it’s not even smart for the people that aren’t taking advantage of it….
Deconstructing the Administrative State Continues…
Today President Trump signed an executive order directing EPA head Scott Pruitt to dismantle the Obama Clean Water Rule. With this executive order Scott Pruitt will begin repealing and rewriting the vastly overreaching EPA rule which defined all water as navigable waterways, including puddles, ponds and water retention structures.
EPA Head Scott Pruitt will now go through the same lengthy rule-making process that put it together. It will take time to go through the notice and comment periods and probable legal challenges mounted in the opposite direction by environmental groups. (more…)
Keeping with a recent tradition, on the afternoon of the State of the Union speech, the President invites some of the media for lunch.

Vice-President Mike Pence delivered remarks this morning during the official commission of Wilbur Ross to become Secretary of Commerce. Both Vice-President Pence and Secretary Ross gave brief remarks during the formal commission ceremony.

Secretary Ross brings with him a comprehensive subject matter skill-set to the position of commerce secretary. Wilbur Ross has spent decades inside the architecture of the economy understanding every aspect to the structure of economic impact brought about by governmental policy. He was overwhelmingly supported during his nomination.
Secretary Ross specific expertise is with the predictive impact of intensely granular policy on trade deals. He amassed a personal fortune by using his skill to invest in operations connected to the constructs of U.S. policy. Ross has willingly set those assets behind a blind trust and assumes the role of commerce secretary in an effort to provide the larger U.S. economy with the road map to similar growth and economic wealth.

I shall just keep quiet and allow Mitch to speak for himself. It’s amazing how the talking points of the UniParty take flight:

It was interesting to see a question about 600 unfilled administration positions, and President Trump’s response NOT to fill those positions because they are fundamentally unnecessary to the priority functions of government.
This gives a peek into presidential priorities and his budgetary approach:
President Trump asked about 600 open government jobs: “A lot of those jobs I don’t want to appoint because they are unnecessary to have.” pic.twitter.com/iOdopREI2w
On Saturday March 4th, 2017, there will be multiple “Spirit of America” rallies, and “March for Trump” rallies, being held across the country. The events are generally being heralded as Pro-Trump rallies, intended to unite and counter the divisional protest marches being held in opposition to our current President.

Treason I say, T.R.E.A.S.O.N. Oh, stop… my sides hurt. I cannot stop laughing and I’ve watched this video more than a few times.
CNN Dingbat Erin Burnett tries to tell former Attorney General Michael Mukasey that talking to the Russians about the election is a crime, “a crime”… Actually, “Treason”, swear… gottabe.. or something.
Oh, the look on Mukasey’s face is buckets of funny. “What”? !! The media have gone so deep inside their echo-chambered moonbattery, they’ve convinced themselves that talking to Russians is a criminal act. WATCH:

Comrade Sean Spicer should wear a big fur hat and bring a dancing bear into the Press Briefing room tomorrow,… with a Cossack line !! See, that’s why I could never be a press secretary. I would so never let these dingbats live this stuff down. (more…)
Wilbur Ross as Commerce Secretary will have the lead position in renegotiating trade deals including NAFTA. When candidate Trump said “we have some real killers for negotiators, we just never use them”, he could have been specifically describing Wilbur Ross.
Ross amassed a fortune as a private equities investor playing financial chess amid the tilted globalist board created by anti-American progressive trade policies supported by Tom Donohue and the U.S. CoC.
Having Ross in the cabinet is like hiring a Ty Cobb type veteran cat burglar to install your security system; Skippy The Wolverine knows all the angles…. (more…)
