The Trump administration is considering to allow states to impose work requirements on Medicaid recipients. Before National Association of Medicaid Directors, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Seema Verma stated that Trump is backing all the measures which help recipients “move up, move on, and move out” of the program. “Believing that community engagement requirements do not support or promote the objectives of Medicaid is a tragic example of the soft bigotry of low expectations consistently espoused by the prior administration,” Verma stated. “Those days are over.” She “defined community engagement as working, volunteering, going to school or obtaining job training.” “Let me be clear to everyone in this room — we will approve proposals that promote community engagement activities,” she said. “Every American deserves the dignity and respect of high expectations, and as public officials we should deliver programs that instill hope and say to each benefic...

The Middle East is making a change that is well appreciated by Trump voters. A source close to the royal family of Saudi Arabia said that the king Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud plans to step down within the next week and leaves Prince Mohammed bin Salman, his son, as his inheritor. The source said that MBS (as he is known) plans to gather the support from the Israeli people to destroy Hezbollah, a Lebanon Islamic group that behaves as a proxy for Iran. “MBS is convinced that he has to hit Iran and Hezbollah,” the source said. “MBS’s plan is to start the fire in Lebanon, but he’s hoping to count on Israeli military backing. He has already promised Israel billions of dollars in direct financial aid if they agree.” While this statement may appear just as an unconfirmed speculation, even Hezbollah seems to be alerted by MBS’s intents. Last week, Hassan Nasrallah, the Hezbollah’s secretary general, issued a statement accusing Saudi Arabia of “inciting Israel to launch a war aga...

The federal appeals court gave a green light for Texas to enforce a new revised version of its voter identification law. “The State has made a strong showing that it is likely to succeed on the merits. SB5 allows voters without qualifying photo ID to cast regular ballots by executing a declaration that they face a reasonable impediment to obtaining qualifying photo ID. This declaration is made under the penalty of perjury,” Judges Jerry Smith and Jennifer Elrod wrote in a joint order Tuesday. “The State has made a strong showing that this reasonable-impediment procedure remedies plaintiffs’ alleged harm and thus forecloses plaintiffs’ injunctive relief.” They criticized U.S. District Court Judge Nelva Gonzalez Ramos expanding the scope of the prior ruling instructing her to evaluate whether or not SB5 solved issues with SB14, another voter ID measure passed in Texas in 2011. Speculations were that the previous measure was an attempt to discriminate and that SB5 didn’t solve ...

General manager of the Denver Broncos, John Elway, has been fighting Internet stories about how the team is pursuing another quarterback for their team. The stories assure tat the team is chasing after Bengals quarterback A.J. McCarron, but Elway made sure that everyone hears him out on Twitter. However, the liberals were quick ton judge the tweet due to content resemblance with Donald Trump’s tweets. Take a look: Rumor of us being interested in anyone other than the QBs we have is another example of irresponsible, fake news!! — John Elway (@johnelway) August 9, 2017 And here is what the responses to this were: You wanna know how to lose me as a lifelong Bronco fan and season ticket holder? Start mixing politics with sports and I'm out Mr. Elway. — Adam (@aburke9580) August 9, 2017 The term fake news is becoming more common nowadays, but it seems that everyone is picking up on the actual nature of media outlets. Elway’ efforts to prove to America that the only quarter...

Despite the fact that Kim Jong Un  likes to think of himself as the ultimate warfare power, he might be missing a huge detail in the story. Kim recently spoke about having Guam on his military radar, due to the fact it is one of the largest U.S. military bases at the moment. However, North Korea has totally forgotten about one ‘minor’ key piece in the puzzle- Japan. “[L]et’s say North Korea was able to launch a missile, or several missiles, successfully,” elaborated conservative analyst Tom Rogan in The Washington Examiner. “In that scenario, U.S. missile defense forces in Japan would kick into overdrive.” The contributor also specified that if Guam faces an attack, the consequences will be colossal. “As the map below indicates, a ballistic missile attack on Guam would have to travel across Japan,” Rogan explained. This could trigger japan to react before anything like that takes place at all. “Japan is protected by the Aegis ballistic missile defense system, desig...

In light of new events, we have learned that after President Trump instructed the DOJ to reopen Hillary Clinton’s investigation in regards to her email hacking affair, she might be fleeing the country. Where to, one might ask? Well, as reports suggest, Hillary is packing her back to fly to good ole Canada. Talk about feeling the need to chill! Hillary and husband, Bill Clinton will pay a visit to the country, alongside daughter Chelsea and two grandchildren, residing at an estate in Quebec, known as Manoir Hovey. Whether this is a long-term commitment or a short-term agenda is still unclear, but Hillary does have many reasons to abandon her homeland. The timing is also immaculate, as Barack Obama decided to also leave for Indonesia, when the Susan rice case reached a boiling point. After Rice’s testimony was delayed, which must have come as devastating to Obama, who was looking to avoid the drama. The Democrats sure are travelers by nature! Once the news of Hillary traveling t...

North Korea has always posed a threat to the U.S., although back in 1994, then-President Bill Clinton tried to conclude an agreement with the Republic that would cease their potentially violent agenda. The agreement known as The 1994 Agreed Framework concluded that America will provide oil, two water reactors and one electric grid, plus a cash ‘prize’ of $5 billion, just so North Korea won’t practice it regime on the States. If you’re asking me, this sounds more like a well-paid bribe. “This is a good deal for the United States,” Clinton pointed out in 1994. “North Korea will freeze and then dismantle its nuclear program. South Korea and our other allies will be better protected. The entire world will be safer as we slow the spread of nuclear weapons.” Due to his own personal fear, Bill decided that rationalizing with North Korea at the time would be much better than actually opposing their nuclear threats. NKorea Flashback: Bill Clinton on his deal with North ...

The Obamacare project has caused quite the turbulence during this past year, and its ineffectiveness was not only witnessed by many but also went to show that Obama never lifted a finger to help the people of America. For that purpose, President Trump demanded a suitable replacement from Senate, that did not comply for more than six months. After going back and forth for quite some time, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was instructed to leave Senate under lockdown until the matter is resolved. Now, it seems that not only the issue is fixed, but that the repeal of Obamacare happened though a final, tie-breaking vote by no else but VP Mike Pence. Senator John McCain also contributed to the entire progress, pointing out that America comes first and differences between parties need to be resolved for the sake of the American people. Of course, protesters of the liberal side chanted “Kill the bill, don’t kill us!” and “Shame!,” which only caused more frustration among Senators. ...

When President Trump addressed The Boy Scouts of America organization, he knew exactly the kind of institution this is to America. A collective older than a century, the Boy Scouts of America represents a highly valued system that had many influential people serving it- from actors, astronauts, to ex-presidents and others. The President decided to honor their annual event, where the POTUS is due to make an appearance and spoke in front of 40,000 Boy Scouts. Donald Trump was greeted with nothing less than shattering applauses and chants that only go to show the appreciation this country has for the man. Still, Donald Trump wanted to make sure to ask a question liberals would hate but citizens of America would acknowledge as a fact: “By the way, just a question. Did President Obama ever come to a jamboree?” Trump asked the crowd, which booed in response. “The answer is no, but we’ll be back,” Trump added.  Obama never actually attended the event, but he had enough decency ...

In terms of Obamacare and its recent repeal, Senator John McCain addressed Senate by stating: ‘A legislative body that has been mired in minutiae and political nickering needs to make itself great again.’ After undergoing a brain cancer surgery and seeking treatment, McCain came back to his usual self and debated the Obamacare repeal and the need thereof. A thundering applause from Senators followed his address, and he even scored a hug from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. McCain made a loud and clear point that Senate should serve the country and ought to perform its duties to the best of its ability. “That principled mindset, and the service of our predecessors who possessed it come to mind when I hear the Senate referred to as the world’s greatest deliberative body. I’m not sure we can claim that distinction with a straight face today,” he said. “Our deliberations can still be important and useful, but I think we’d all agree they haven’t been overburdened by great...

After news broke that the FBI managed to discover the DNC’s remaining smashed drives in Imran Awan’s old apartment, Florida GOP Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz became feeling a little uneasy. Well, now she has an even bigger reason to fear her career and freedom as it was revealed that her faithful aid, who she refused to fire amid the scandal, has finally been arrested. Pakistani Imran Awan was taken in while engaging into a runaway mission. As you already know, he was the man behind all the obtained files from various Congress members. According to Bill Miller, spokesman for the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, Awan “was arraigned today in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on one count of bank fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1344.  He pled not guilty and was released pursuant to a high-intensity supervision program. The conditions of release are that he receive a GPS monitor, he abide by a curfew of 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., and that he ...

When GQ special correspondent Keith Olbermann dared to question whether President Donald Trump actually interacted with his youngest son, Barron Trump, things got, let’s say, heated. Take a look at what he said via Twitter: I did mean to ask, @realDonaldTrump , since you spend all your time golfing, watching TV, and tweeting, have you actually ever MET Barron? http://pic.twitter.com/pVmVo3oq14 — Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) July 25, 2017 “I did mean to ask, @realDonaldTrump, since you spend all your time golfing, watching TV, and tweeting, have you actually ever MET Barron?” Olberman tweeted Tuesday. These comments came after the President, revolted, stated that perhaps Mueller and the others investigating him in the Russia probe, should now turn to Barron and make him his target. Jared Kushner did very well yesterday in proving he did not collude with the Russians. Witch Hunt. Next up, 11 year old Barron Trump! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 25, 2017 Many...

Former Attorney General, Loretta Lynch is facing possible congressional investigation after House conservatives pulled a final move on her and her very-suspicious criminal doings in regards to the 2016 elections. The very same fate will also meet former FBI Director James Comey. To do so, Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Jim Jordan (R-OH) prepared an amendment that will engage into inspecting the aforementioned duo’s activities. The one thing this investigation will focus on is Lynch’s infamous order to Comey to “mislead the American people by stating he should refer to the investigation into the mishandling of classified data and use of an unauthorized email server by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as a ‘matter,’ rather than a criminal ‘investigation.’” The Department of Justice, alongside Jeff Sessions and possibly Speaker Paul Ryan will partake in the entire investigative process. The amendment has yet to be introduced, so let’s allo...

Vice President Mike Pence just scored a major win that made Republicans proud and the supporters extremely happy. It did not, however, satisfied the liberals, that were hoping for a different outcome in the situation. What Pence actually did was to cast his vote Tuesday as the deciding factor in a 50-50 tie. What did he vote on, you might ask? The repeal of Obamacare of course. This will be a very interesting day for HealthCare.The Dems are obstructionists but the Republicans can have a great victory for the people! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 25, 2017 Donald Trump made it very clear to Senate that it is high time they got down to business and find a suitable solution for Obama’s failing health care bill. Shortly after, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell initiated a Senate lockdown so things could move up a notch. “With a surprise election comes great opportunities,” he said. There were rebels in the case, that’s for sure, and some of the m...

A lot of speculation circled the last couple of days in regards to ex-NYC Mayor Rudy Guliani and his future engagements as a political figure. One of the people who addressed this matter was host Rush Limbaugh, who pointed out that Giuliani might be awarded the Attorney General position, replacing elected Jeff Sessions. Limbaugh used logic to lead himself to this conclusion. As he noted, two things mattered in this case. First, a friend of his said something about Trump’s office and a vetting of a person still unrevealed to the public. Also, Limbaugh used a New York Post story claiming that Giuliani could be the ideal replacement for Jeff Sessions. Trump recently spoke of Sessions, calling him “beleaguered.” So why aren't the Committees and investigators, and of course our beleaguered A.G., looking into Crooked Hillarys crimes & Russia relations? — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 24, 2017 Aside from Giuliani, Newt Gingrich may also be scoring a major p...

President Donald Trump took time off his busy schedule to speak to a crowd of boy scouts present at the 2017 National Scout Jamboree. Trump also used the Monday opportunity to bash former POTUS, Barack Obama on several topics. The interesting this, however, was that the crowd seemed willing to hear what Trump had to say. “By the way, just a question: Did President Obama ever come to a Jamboree?” Trump commented. Cheering sounds overtook the area, as a very distinctive  “No!” echoed among the pile of guests. Joining Trump at the event and on the stage were also Energy Secretary Rick Perry, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, and Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price. They all shared a laugh at the truthfulness behind Trump’s question and the people’s reaction. “And we’ll be back,” Trump continued. “The answer’s no, but we’ll be back.” However, making him the wonderful man he is, Trump quickly switched the subject to things that matter NOW. “You can do anything. You ca...

Democrats can do very few things straight, but keeping their dirty little secrets buried deep was never their strong side. The DNC suffered tremendously after a handful of papers and top-secret party information was obtained by various entities that wanted to expose the truth. It is yet uncertain whether these documents could entail an espionage scenario unraveling right in front of our eyes. Now, reports suggest that the FBI has acquired more computer drives, this time from Pakistani IT specialist, Imran Awan., an IT expert who was born in Pakistan. Awan was- shock of all shocks- closely linked to ex-DNC chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. The drives revealed that Awan obtained information on House Democrats and their doings at the time. Aside from the FBI, the U.S. Capitol Police also engaged in the investigation and said the suspects seem to be “committing serious, potentially illegal, violations on the House IT network.” Here is what a Daily Caller report found: “...

After so many comings and goings from Donald Trump’s office, all for the sake of the country, another staffer may be packing his belongings as well. Although no official statement has been made yet, sources “familiar with [Rex Tillerson’s] conversations with friends outside Washington” have already shared with liberal CNN that Tillerson, ex-ExxonMobil CEO may be quite enraged with their boss and might be leaving before the year closes. “Tillerson reportedly agreed with Trump critics who thought it was unprofessional when the president lashed out last week at Attorney General Jeff Sessions because he recused himself from the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. Trump referred to Sessions as “beleaguered” in a Monday morning tweet and has reportedly floated the idea of replacing him with former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R).” Although this is the very beginning of an uncertain story, the main thing is that anything that potentia...

On Saturday, America awoke with a very sincere statement by Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who noted that the country would benefit more if the political differences didn’t determine the faith of the country to the extent they are now. While speaking at the Arena Stage in Washington, D.C., following The Originalist performance, Ginsburg made a fair point deserving of our attention. The play itself tells the story of a relationship between now-departed Justice Antonin Scalia and a Democratic legal staffer hired by him. The objective of Scalia’s move was to keep a balance between the difference in opinions the two parties had. “I love this play and the idea behind it that people with very different views on important things can genuinely like each other,” Ginsburg commented after to the play. Also, Ginsburg noted that the country has bright days ahead “over the long haul.” She also offered her approach in both the overly left and overly right influence saying,...

President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and appointed White House senior adviser, Jared Kushner has recently stepped out with an update on his suspected involvement in the Russia probe case. On Monday he made it sure to be loud and clear while dismissing the claims that he partook in the case. He also mentioned the key that, in his mind, won Trump his presidency, which is the fact that Trump “had a better message and ran a smarter campaign.” Aside from his recent speech, Kushner also engaged in a two-hour marathon of testifying in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee. At the time, he also dropped all claims that he had any collusion with Russia whatsoever. Kushner especially addressed the claims that he was communicating with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak, pointing out those calls never occurred. Here is what he said: “Let me be clear, I did not collude with Russia, nor do I know of anyone in the campaign who did so,” Kushner noted. “I had no improper contacts, I have not r...
