Good News Round-Up Against the Din of Derangement

President Trump Restores Chief Petty Officer Gallagher to his Pre-Court Martial Rank
Great news. That show trial was a travesty of kangaroo justice motivated by lawfare against a good sailor.

From July: Trump orders Navy to rescind medals from lawyers who prosecuted SEAL Eddie Gallagher
Punch back twice as hard.

Huge October Payrolls Beat: 128K Jobs Added As Black Unemployment Rate Hits All Time Low
"The report includes a strike-driven 41,600 decline in automaker payrolls and 20,000 temporary census workers leaving their jobs. The result of the strike led to a 36K drop in manufacturing jobs, the biggest drop since 2009, although a similar rebound is expected next month now that the GM strike is over.

...The unexpectedly strong report validates the Fed's description of the job market as "strong" and validates Powell's signal that the Fed will pause after its third interest-rate cut. While businesses have been pulling back on fixed investment as yesterday's GDP print showed, continued solid gains in hiring and wages will help drive growth and support President Donald Trump’s bid for re-election in 2020."
Obama couldn't kill this economy, try as he might, with his failure legacy of 'these jobs just aren't coming back.' But a magic wand trumps failure legacy.

Record 158,510,000 Americans Employed in October; 23rd Record for Trump
"The nation’s labor force participation rate also set a Trump-era high of 63.3 percent. This number is explained in greater detail below, but the higher, the better. Payroll taxes from people who work help support programs for those who don't."
To paraphrase a failed female democrat potus candidate, "Ah ain't no-ways tarred of winning."

Dow hits record as stock market rally extends into 5th week
"NEW YORK (AP) — The Dow Jones Industrial Average returned to a record on Monday, joining other market gauges at all-time highs, as the stock market's rally carried into a fifth week.

Oil producers, banks and other stocks that do well when the economy is strengthening again led the way. It's a notable shift in leadership following months of struggles for what Wall Street calls "cyclical" stocks, which lagged due to worries about trade wars and the slowing global economy."
'Worries.' What recession? That was so Summer 2019. The Fed kissed Obama's ^ss to keep rates ultra-low so money poured into stocks during his term. Where else could you go for a decent ROI with rates at 1.5% but Wall Street? Obama knew it. Investors knew it. After weeks of thumbing their nose at Trump, the Fed once again, finally, cut rates down to 1.5 - 1.75%. That makes the stock market the only game in town. Trump knows it. Investors know it.

Trump’s Withdrawal from Syria Is a Foreign Policy Masterstroke
"In one deft move that doesn’t put a single American life at risk, President Trump achieved a regional solution to ISIS, undermined Iran’s capacity for foreign aggression, and disentangled the United States from an alliance of convenience that threatened to create major diplomatic headaches down the road.

Contrary to claims that withdrawing American special forces from Northern Syria will enable ISIS to resurrect itself, for instance, the arrangement with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan merely shifts responsibility for the few remaining ISIS fighters onto Turkey.

The successful operation to take out ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi only makes it even less likely that the terrorist group will reemerge."
In his 1961 farewell address, Pres. Eisenhower gave the nation a dire warning about the military-industrial complex (MIC) - a formidable alliance of defense contractors and the armed forces - which Eisenhower, a retired five-star Army general, the man who led the allies on D-Day, described as a grave threat to democratic government.

I think Trump's 'getting out of endless wars' comment is based upon that warning. The Left & neo-cons alike lost their collective poop in response. Obama had US troops committed to no less than 7 hot war engagements at the end of his term. Despite their public demonization of the military, Leftists love the $600 billion dollar hydra of MIC. Trump's attempt to untangle that geopolitical Gordian knot will hit them hard in their wallet.

Trump is right. The Left was wrong about a war response for moving our embassy to Jerusalem; they were wrong about nuclear war with the Norks; they were wrong about punishing Iran; they were wrong about Russia/Trump collusion; they were wrong about securing our Southern border; they were wrong about Chinese confrontation - and they're wrong about Syria. Obama has a red line if you're still doubtful.

Who could be in Durham’s investigative crosshairs? Obama-era figures have reason to sweat
"The development has prompted allegations from Democrats that the Department of Justice is being politicized. Attorney General Bill Barr, however, rejected those claims and defended the Durham probe in an interview earlier this week with Fox News, while accusing the James Comey-era FBI brass of a "failure of leadership."
'Allegations from Democrats.' Said the same people who daily cheered the Mueller collusion inquisition bombshells, as the walls closed in, with trumpworld indictments, beginning the end of Trump - as Schiff-face now conducts a sooper-seekret Stalin show trial in the House dungeon. StFU, cry bullies!

Trump Admin Considers Adding More Nations To So-Called Travel Ban
"An official told the news network that the goal would be to “bring governments into compliance by using the power of access to the United States.” Reportedly, less than five countries are being considered."
Travel bans are all the rage in Cesspit California, but that's different. Per usual, the Lefties will forum shop against Trump til they find an Obama judge to injunction whatever Trump decides. TDS. SCOTUS clean-up on aisle 9.

Doug Wead: I interviewed the Trump family for two years and THIS is what I found
"It turns out that the real stories of what has been happening inside Trump-world are far more interesting than the fake ones."
I've never cared for court intrigue, regardless of POTUS. Backstabbers and liars abound in a town that thrives on backstabbing liars. At least Doug Wead has put all on the record - unlike all the others' tabloid trash.

Exclusive — Pence Chief Marc Short: Democrat Impeachment Agenda Handing House Back to GOP in 2020
"Currently, Democrats sit in 31 districts that President Donald Trump won in 2016, 13 of which Trump won by six percent or more. In addition to those 31 Trump seats in which Democrats currently sit, there are another approximately 20 House battleground districts expected to potentially be competitive races in 2020. For the GOP to retake the House majority a year from now in the November 2020 congressional elections, Republicans would need to take a net gain of only 19 seats."
Turn out, turn out, turn out is always key.

UMich nixes 'Bias Response Teams' amid free speech lawsuit
"The Department of Justice also filed a Statement of Interest in the case, specifically criticizing the Bias Response Team."
'Bias Response Team.' A Stalin-esque dog whistle to provide cover for cry-bullies to silence Conservative speech on campus. Punch back twice as hard.


Sanctuary County Rolls Back Its Anti-ICE Policy Following String Of Illegal Aliens Charged With Rape
"The reversal is the latest move by Montgomery County’s government, which endured national criticism for its sanctuary policy amid a string of rape charges against illegal aliens within the jurisdiction."
No 'qualified immunity' for these public officials. They should be criminally prosecuted for aiding & abetting these violent illegal immigrants who terrorized with impunity in their jurisdiction.


Schadenfreude serenade: California's Prop 47 leads to rise in shoplifting, thefts, criminal activity across state
"Since Proposition 47 was passed, there has been an increase in theft across the state. Cities like San Francisco have seen organized crime rings turn shoplifting into a well-organized racket involving desperate thieves and unscrupulous black-market resellers.

Among the nation's 20 largest cities, San Francisco now has the highest rate of property crime, which includes theft, shoplifting and vandalism."
Coddled criminals. Sanctuary cities. Homeless hovels. Forest infernos. Regulated droughts. Barren farmlands. Failed infrastructure. Street feces crisis... California is a Leftist cesspit that hates its own citizens.
