Poll after poll is showing that the BIG “Blue Wave is” nothing more than a slight ripple in the ocean of politics.

This latest Gallup poll is a real blow to Democrats, as Americans have not been THIS “satisfied” with the country’s direction in 13 years.Time to hit the PANIC BUTTON, Dems!

A new Gallup poll shows the percentage of Americans who are satisfied with the direction the country is moving in has reached its highest point in nearly 13 years, which bodes well for the GOP’s midterm prospects — but not so much for Democrats.

Since April, the percentage of people who are “satisfied” with the current direction of the United States skyrocketed by 8 percentage points from just 29 percent a month ago to 37 percent now.

While that number reached a similar point just before the 2016 election, it hasn’t exceeded that percentage since 2005, when 39 percent of the country was satisfied with its direction. If the momentum sustains, it could mean good news for Republicans in 2018.

“If satisfaction remains where it is or increases, as opposed to falling back as it did after the increase in February this year, it could aid the Republican Party in the 2018 midterm elections,” Gallup noted.

It appears much of the momentum was driven by independent voters, 35 percent of whom are “satisfied” compared to just 26 percent last month. Additional support came from Republicans, who are now up to 63 percent satisfied from April’s 57 percent.

Democrats, on the other hand, contributed a measly 1 percentage point increase in satisfaction, going from just 13 percent to 14 percent.

Two factors, in particular, may have contributed to the increases across the board: progress with North Korea and an 18-year low in unemployment on the April jobs report. Regardless, the public seems to be warming up to President Donald Trump’s America.

In fact, the president himself saw a rise in popularity this month, reaching his highest approval rating in nearly a year at 42 percent. Following the results, President Trump lashed out at the media for its negative coverage on Twitter.
“Can you believe that with all of the made up, unsourced stories I get from the Fake News Media, together with the $10,000,000 Russian Witch Hunt (there is no Collusion), I now have my best Poll Numbers in a year,” he wrote.

Can you believe that with all of the made up, unsourced stories I get from the Fake News Media, together with the $10,000,000 Russian Witch Hunt (there is no Collusion), I now have my best Poll Numbers in a year. Much of the Media may be corrupt, but the People truly get it!

Look What Trump Just Did For Social Security Recipients — They Said He Couldn’t Do It!

President Trump defied critics and just made a lot of people very happy with the announcement that came from the Social Security Administration, They have happily announced that Social Security and Supplemental Security Income benefits for over 66 million Americans will increase 2 percent during 2018, an increase coming instead of a decrease, giving back a few more dollars to people who’ve worked hard their entire lives.

The 2% cost-of-living adjustment will begin with benefits payable to more than 61 million Social Security beneficiaries in January 2018 and continue with the rest later in the year. The Social Security Act ties the annual COLA to the increase in the Consumer Price Index as determined by the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2017.

Some other adjustments that take effect throughout 2018 are based on the increase in average wages. Based on that increase, the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax will increase to $128,700 from $127,200. Of the estimated, 175 million workers who will pay Social Security taxes in 2018 and about 12 million of which will pay more because of the increase in the taxable maximum.

This has been stated as the largest increase since 2012, but people would like to see even more of an increase if possible. Of course, that could depend on where people live as the cost of living might be different in New York compared to a midwestern state.
The following press release was posted on SSA.Gov: “Monthly Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for more than 66 million Americans will increase 2.0 percent in 2018, the Social Security Administration announced today.

The 2.0 percent cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) will begin with benefits payable to more than 61 million Social Security beneficiaries in January 2018. Increased payments to more than 8 million SSI beneficiaries will begin on December 29, 2017. (Note: some people receive both Social Security and SSI benefits) The Social Security Act ties the annual COLA to the increase in the Consumer Price Index as determined by the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Some other adjustments that take effect in January of each year are based on the increase in average wages. Based on that increase, the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax (taxable maximum) will increase to $128,400 (1) from $127,200. Of the estimated 175 million workers who will pay Social Security taxes in 2018, about 12 million will pay more because of the increase in the taxable maximum.

Information about Medicare changes for 2018, when announced, will be available at www.medicare.gov.

The Social Security Act provides for how the COLA is calculated. To read more, please visit www.socialsecurity.gov/cola.”

People who would like more information can review the following fact sheet which provides even more information.

If you’re wondering what to do with the extra income, or how much it is, then please refer to the following information provided by USNews: “The average Social Security check is $1,377 a month, and so next year, a typical payment will climb by $27 a month.
“It all comes down to the individual,” he says. “If the person needs that amount to meet their monthly financial needs, then, obviously, that is the best use of the money. They earned the benefit, and they should use the money to make their lives a bit easier. If the person or couple doesn’t need the money to maintain their standard of living because they have other streams of income, then they can use the money in a multitude of ways.”

And while $27 a month isn’t much, Dellutri points out that if you’re married, and you both have $27 a month coming in, that’s $54 a month. It still isn’t a fortune, but it adds up to $648 a year. And if you have other sources of retirement revenue, chances are, you could use that $648 for something useful.”

Critics would certainly say this isn’t enough of an increase, but if someone handed you $648, would you take it?

How do you feel about the increase? Share this with a friend who gets social security and write your comments below.

California Exposed Investigating Stormy Daniels Lawyer For $5M Crime

The liberal media has spent a lot of time and effort to make us care about Stormy Daniels.

Spoiler alert: we don’t care.

It’s clear that much of her story is unsubstantiated and fully denied by the President. At the very worst, it revolves around a short-lived relationship from over a decade ago.

This is the same media that told us not to care about Bill Clinton’s many relationships. Including the one that took place while he was in the White House. Now, these liberals are claiming Trump shouldn’t be president, because of the wild claims of an ex-porn star.

Meanwhile, the President has continued to win for the American people. Amazing things are happening around the world, while the press focuses on Stormy.
Now we are learning about Stormy’s lawyer, Michael Avenatti. Apparently, he has been up to some shady business of his own. Business that might mean the end of his career.

From Fox News:

The State Bar of California is investigating porn star Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Michael Avenatti, Fox News has confirmed, after a complaint was filed regarding allegedly unpaid taxes.

Fox News on Wednesday obtained an April 18-dated letter verifying the existence of the investigation—unrelated to his representation of Daniels.

“The complaint against attorney Michael J. Avenatti has been reviewed and forwarded to the Enforcement Unit for further investigation and prosecution, if warranted,” said the letter from the state bar, written by Supervising Attorney Anand Kumar and reviewed by Fox News.

…

The complaint, first reported by The Seattle Times, said Avenatti and Global Baristas faced a lien for unpaid federal taxes worth roughly $5 million, claiming taxes were withheld from workers’ paychecks but not paid to the government. The complaint from Nold, as posted by The Seattle Times, called into question Avenatti’s “fitness to practice law.”

Let’s get this straight. Avenatti’s company withheld taxes from workers’ paychecks, but didn’t send that money to the government? That smacks of more than just withholding taxes. That sounds like some kind of money laundering scheme.

It’s not as if he didn’t have the money. It was taken from their paychecks, after all. But his company held onto that money—for some reason.

If the State Bar of California finds him guilty, he could lose his license to practice law. But shouldn’t a bigger investigation be underway? Like, by the government?

This report seems to suggest Avenatti has been breaking the law. I’m sure the DOJ or at least IRS would like to know what he’s been up to. Perhaps a real investigation should be opened up.

After all, this man loves throwing accusations at the President. Perhaps he’ll have to take them instead.

After Trump Calls MS-13 ‘Animals,’ An Inhuman Democrat Group Lashes Out

Any coverage of Trump needs to immediately be met with skepticism.

Many Americans did that when the pearl-clutching left reported that the President called immigrants, “animals”.

Trump was solely referring to members of the notoriously horrific MS-13 gang, the bad hombres who have committed unspeakable atrocities. We would post some images and stories of what they have done to Americans, but it would be beyond rated R.

Trump stated that these monsters “weren’t people”, and demanded an end to their infiltration of America during a discussion on sanctuary cities.

For some reason, the largest killer of humans in America decided to weigh in on the President’s comments in a staggering display of hypocrisy.

From IJR:

After President Donald Trump referred to MS-13 as “animals” on Wednesday, Planned Parenthood and its former president Cecile Richards ironically called him out for failing to recognize the violent gang members as humans.

“Immigrants are people,” the organization, which performed 321,384 abortions over this past year, tweeted. “They are our neighbors, our friends, and members of the Planned Parenthood family. One hateful man will never, ever speak for all of us.”
If only Planned Parenthood would stick up for unborn babies as much as they do for MS-13 murderers. But it makes sense why they would defend this violent gang. At the end of the day, both Planned Parenthood and MS-13 are hateful and murderous organizations that are devoid of morality.

Press Secretary Sarah Sanders stood by the President’s comments against MS-13, and reiterated that he was strictly calling the gang members animals and not all immigrants.

“This is one of the most vicious and deadly gangs that operates by the motto of rape, control and kill,” Sanders stated during a White House Press Conference.

“Frankly, I don’t think the term that the president used was strong enough. MS-13 has done heinous acts. It took an animal to stab a man 100 times and decapitate him and rip his heart out. It took an animal to beat a woman they were sex trafficking with a bat, 28 times, indenting part of her body. And it took an animal to kidnap and rape a 13-year-old Houston girl.”

MS-13 gang members are contract killers, ritualistic murderers, drug dealers and gang rapists, but to Planned Parenthood, they are more human than unborn human lives.

BREAKING News Out Of The EAST COAST… HE JUST GOT SENTENCED!!! LOOK HOW LONG!

CONCORD – United States Attorney Scott W. Murray announced today that Edward McLarnon, 69, of Malden, Massachusetts, was sentenced to serve 25 years in federal prison for receiving firearms with intent to commit murder and other related charges.

After a six-day trial, McLarnon was convicted on January 30, 2018, of: (1) receiving an unregistered silencer; (2) receiving firearms with the intent to commit murder; (3) receiving explosive materials; and (4) receiving an explosive with the intent to harm persons or property.

Evidence presented at trial showed that in October 2015, defendant McLarnon made contact with a person he believed to be an arms dealer (who was actually an undercover FBI agent) for the purpose of buying illegal weapons. After negotiating with the agent at a store in Chichester and paying a total of $700 cash, on November 6, 2015, the defendant took possession of a .22 caliber pistol with silencer, an AK-47 style semi-automatic rifle, and explosives, along with ammunition for the firearms. He then was arrested at a rest stop in Seabrook, NH. The evidence further showed that McLarnon intended to use the weapons to kill his ex-wife’s husband, as well as a Boston federal judge and a former Massachusetts Attorney General.

In imposing the 25-year sentence, U.S. District Court Judge Steven J. McAuliffe said “But for some exceptional law enforcement work, you may have caused serious harm to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Federal Judiciary and Mr. Douglas.”

“This lengthy sentence is an appropriate punishment for this defendant, whose conduct was truly frightening and dangerous,” said U.S. Attorney Murray. “Because the defendant was frustrated with the legal system, he planned to engage in disturbing acts of violence. We should all be grateful that our law enforcement partners were able to prevent this defendant from putting his violent plan into action. The substantial prison sentence imposed by the court should act as a deterrent to others who might plan to commit violent crimes”.
“Mr. McLarnon went to great lengths and concocted a frightening plan to kill his ex-wife’s husband, a sitting federal judge, and a former Massachusetts Attorney General, as a way to express his displeasure with the judicial system. Through the exceptional work and diligence of our Joint Terrorism Task Forces in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, we were able to uncover and disrupt his nefarious plot,” said Harold H. Shaw, Special Agent in Charge, FBI Boston Division. “Today’s sentence ensures that he will no longer be in a position to endanger innocent lives for a very long time.”

This matter was investigated by the FBI, U.S. Secret Service, Homeland Security Investigations, Boston, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney John S. Davis and Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Matthew T. Hunter.
