WHAT GOES AROUND, IT COMES AROUND

 Letitia James, New York Attorney General, rode on a high horse when on February 17, 2024, greeting New York Supreme Court Judge Engoron's ruling, ordering Donald Trump to pay $354.9 million in penalties and banning him from business in New York State, she said to the cameras, "No one is above the law...". The real estate experts in their majority were of the opinion that Judge Engoron grossly underestimated the value of Mar a Lago property, hence the ruling was very suspect at the least. Letitia James and Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg, in his criminal action against Trump, needed some creative charges and creative justice to get Trump but it appears now that to get Letitia James Trump might not need to stretch anything because apparently Letitia James perpetrated plainly mortgage fraud as well as she "abdicated" her office by establishing her primary residence in the state of Virginia, pursuant to Newsweek story. It appears that 2 months before filing action against Trump, Letitia James amended her own records as part of a real estate transaction. A document signed on August 17, 2023 shows that she intended to change her residence to Norfolk, Virginia. She apparently stated on the mortgage application: "I HEREBY DECLARE that I intend to occupy this property as my principal residence". Newsweek reports that the existence of the evidence was first reported by Sam Antar of the White Collar Fraud Blog. A separate land record stipulates that Letitia James and the co-applicant, her cousin Shamice Thompson-Hairston, "to occupy, establish and use" the Norfolk home as "their principal residence" within 60 days and to keep it their "principal residence" for at least one year. Apparently, Letitia James did not do what she declared in her mortgage application what evidences the mortgage fraud. Pursuant to New York Post, the Trump Administration , in particular, The U.S. Federal Housing Finance  Agency, referred Letitia James, NY Attorney General, for potential prosecution over the alleged mortgage fraud. It seems that we all are sinners, only Jesus Christ was perfect. So, all the politicians, before you start to speak from a high horse, examine your sins, as we all should.

THE DOGS BARK, BUT THE CARAVAN MOVES ON!

 So much noise from the Democrats, known for talk, not the walk, and from the mainstream media, about the tariffs and the markets falling down. They all want soooooo badly President Trump to fail...But we all know that Rome wasn't built in a day. So, President Trump will keep the course, and the investments and jobs will be brought back to America. Full speed ahead!

TRUMP IS CONSISTENT IN HIS ECONOMIC MESSAGE

 On June 26, 1996, while speaking in U.S. Congress, the Democratic Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi demanded raising of tariffs as well as reciprocity of tariffs. She was demanding then of the President of the United States "do something about this U.S. China trade relationship that is a job loser for the United States." Now, Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats decry raising of tariffs by President Trump. Apparently, Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats constantly change their opinions. In 1988, while appearing on Oprah Winfrey show, a young businessman Donald Trump decried trade imbalance with Japan and other countries and demanded that the United States be done with it and that those countries dumping their goods in the United States share the profits with the America. Trump did not change, as it happens constantly to the Democrats, and now when he can, he is doing something about the trade imbalances and lost jobs to Asian and other countries. Also, the Democrats and majority of the mainstream media sound alarm because of Wall Street dip in the stock value, yet it is obvious that stock valuation has nothing to do with profitability of the company. The Democrats and the media, by inflating the specter of financial crash, attempt to stop Trump Administration from remaking of the American economy.

ABUSE OF INJUNCTIONS, BY FEDERAL DISTRICT JUDGES, AGAINST TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, DESTROYS THE CONSTITUTIONAL ORDER

The members of Trump Administration complain a lot recently about local federal district judges issuing injunctions which bind the whole nation and stop the executive branch from executing its policy. It is worth to note that only in 1963 a U.S. federal district judge issued a first universal injunction binding parties who were not in front of the court. It happened after almost 200 years of existence of the republic. Then, 6 universal injunctions, binding parties who were not in front of the court, were issued in the years of George W, Bush's administration, following by 12 universal injunctions under the Obama administration, then under first Trump administration, 64 universal injunctions were issued by activist federal district judges! Then, 14 injunctions were issued in the four years of Biden administration, whereas in the first 2 months of the second Trump administration, already 37 universal injunctions binding nonparties in the whole United States were issued by the activist federal local judges. The abuse of universal injunctions is distortive to U.S. constitutional system, pursuant to experts who testified yesterday in the U.S. Senate, as those judges start to exercise a policy making power, which can only be exercised by elected politicians. The federal judges do not have to face the voters every 2, 4 or 6 years, like all elected politicians do, as the judges are appointed for life. One of the founding fathers, Alexander Hamilton, said that the judicial is the least dangerous branch but only if the judges exercise the judicial power; if they range beyond it, they can be the most dangerous branch and the public confidence will be undermined because the voters have no chance to get rid of those judges because they have a life tenure.
