Reprise & Prelude

I want to reprise a Blog from a year ago.   Recently I have been directing you to it, so I decided it was time to revisit it.   The following paragraphs are from the Blog “Good’s Dilemma” and will serve as a prelude to the next Blog.  That Blog will explore the most current and dangerous Black Propaganda move being made against Americans.   Stay tuned for that, but this one, I believe, will give you some peace of mind.

EXCERPTED FROM “GOOD’S DILEMMA”

One of the difficulties we Americans have in dealing with the upsetting cultural and political climate we find ourselves in has to do with the fact that we are basically GOOD.  None of us is perfect, yet we try in varying degrees to do what’s right and to see good in ourselves and others.   Therefore GOOD has a hard time seeing and understanding BAD.   Good people have a hard time identifying bad people–let alone dealing with them–because the “good” look through their own eyes, and their own motives, and intentions.

Regrettably, the BAD understand this trait and can remain camouflaged, manipulating their way, causing havoc.   There are two things to address.  One is the driving motivation of “good” people versus “bad” people.   By “good” I mean those who strive to Create, and by “bad” I mean those who strive to Destroy.    I’m not talking about accidentally being destructive of people or things.  We all fall into that category from time to time.  I am talking about people whose goal is in fact to destroy.   They work on the complete counter agenda to those whose goal is  to create.   You will be well off in my opinion to think of this as a game and have a sense of humor about it.

Just remember that there are people who CREATE and there are people who DESTROY.   Embracing that simple fact alone may cause a weight to lift.  You may have struggled trying to justify why someone did something horribly contrary to you, your family, your group, or your country.   Being good, you think you brought this on yourself.   You think you must have been wrong, or  done something wrong.   That’s how basically good, emotionally mature people think.   They try to take responsibility for all the foul ups and upsets.  They try to make things better.   They try to trust.

And it is that one trait alone that makes it possible for the Black Propagandist to operate– to remain hidden, to prey upon, manipulate the emotions and actions of others he despises, to undermine, and even turn the target of his enmity into an accomplice.   There is no one blinder than the unwitting accomplice of a Black Propagandist.  Staying close to us, gaining our trust, they gnaw away at our faith in institutions, people, government, and even ourselves.  Their goal is to destroy and they are gleeful when there is chaos, fear, declining statistics, mistrust, and violence.   The “good,” on the other hand, are despairing in the face of those factors.   They are happy when there is calm, freedom, safety, upward trending statistics and on and on.

So, second, what is a Black Propagandist and why is he such a cunning and dangerous foe to face?  The Black Propagandist is one who plants and spreads lies about someone through gossip or rumor in order to destroy the reputation, the livelihood, the position, and possibly the life of someone he targets.  He is driven by fear and hatred.   He can not compete in the open, so he adopts a covert attack. Getting others to pick up his lie and move that lie forward assures that he can remain hidden and that the lie will spread like wildfire–if he attaches the lie or lies to a modicum of truth.   His equation is something like this:  100 lies + 1 truth = 101 truths.  The one truth makes the 100 lies somehow true.   We struggle with overwhelming amounts of data, and say, “Well, that one piece of data is true, so I guess all the rest of the info must be true too. And now 100 lies become “true.” We know somehow that is insane.   Or do we?”

Unabashed Self-Promotion

Often we hold back promoting something we have done, or who we are, for fear of seeming self-centered, conceited, greedy, or engaging in some other version of self-interest.  Good deeds, though,  need to be well known and well publicized or they go unnoticed.

A business mentor of mine taught all of us to point out the good deeds and successes of others far and wide–to put as much attention as possible on who was doing something right and worthwhile.   And, he also taught me that if there is no one there to promote you, you may have to promote the good deed, or the accomplishment yourself.   It still remains a thing of value, even if you are doing the promotion yourself.

So, I am about to promote something to you.   After the quotes from the men I am about to describe, I will explain WHY I did this, and why I think you should act upon their words.  Steve Luckey, Paul Vallely, and Jerry Molen met me after the publication of my first book, “White King and the Doctor.”  They sought me out.  They offered support for the message of that book, and the subsequent books.  One even appeared with me on “Fox and Friends” to add credibility to my message.

Ivan Passer had known me for years.   He directed me in the movie “Creator,” and we became professional friends.   I especially appreciated his character, and his own stunning story of escape from what was then Czechoslovakia, after being targeted as a dangerous dissident film maker.

The resumes for each of these men would take pages and pages.   Here is a snapshot.   Steve Luckey is one of the top  International Counterterrorist Experts in the world.  He successfully recruited, trained, and ran a Fifth Column inside the North Vietnamese Army back in the Viet Nam Conflict.   He went on to become chief of security for the Airline Pilots Association.   He partners with a few others who are at the top of their field in figuring out what bad guys will do, and how to stop them.  One of Steve’s areas of expertise is psychological and Information warfare.  Among the rest of the group is the top chemical weapons expert in the world.   About 5 years ago, Steve was given an award in the security field that has only been awarded 4 times I believe in nearly a century.   Steve was the fourth, and was vetted for years before being given that honor.  Google search him yourself.

Major General Paul Vallely was the commander of special forces in the Iraq War, author of the book “Endgame–the Blueprint for Victory in the War on Terror,” a television military analyst,  radio host, and founder of Stand Up America, USA.

Ivan Passer is a filmmaker.   He impressed Hollywood with his film “Cutter’s Way” and was directing the stunning film “Stalin” in the Soviet Union when the wall fell.  Google search him and the heroism he displayed for his beloved Czechoslovakia, and the love he has for the country that took him in.

Jerry Molen was regarded as Steven Spielberg’s favorite producer.  Before leaving Amblin, among the many films he produced are “Jaws,” “Jurassic Park,” and he won an Oscar for the movie “Schindler’s List.”

All four of these men love this country and their countrymen, and desire always to educate, and empower you so that you can not only face adversaries, but so that you will be ahead of the adversaries–smarter than them.  They all want to see you and your grandchildren free and prosperous.   They do not want to see you subjugated.   They are brilliant, dedicated, aware, and engaged.

Here is what Steve Luckey had to say about “White King and the Doctor.”  “It’s a breathtaking adventure, involving some of the world’s most dangerous terrorists and dedicated American adversaries–playing the chess game for keeps.   The book combines insightfully accurate detail with suspenseful, cinematic drama.  Its completely new wrinkle provides a compelling perspective and a very emotional tactical challenge.  A Must Read”

Of “White King Rising” he wrote:  “…It is an eloquently written sequel to ‘White King and the Doctor’–a monumental revelation that will capture your emotions and keep you on the edge of your seat…Ms. Kessler has done the free world a genuine favor!”

And of the final book, Luckey wrote: “One of America’s great story tellers is a super talent who has blown the lid off in the dynamic conclusion of the White King series.  This riveting suspense -packed epic thriller really gest the juices flowing as she takes you on an emotional journey through the most challenging international terrorist plot ever conceived.   No one does it better, and I sincerely hope the entire intelligence community makes this a must read book.”

Paul Vallely wrote of “White King and the Doctor.”  “Strategic thinking must connect the dots of international terrorism…’White King and the Doctor’ makes for a shocking and suspenseful story of immense proportions…I urge everyone to read this book.”

After reading “White King Rising” he wrote, “In order for Al Qaeda’s number two man to plunge the Middle East and world further into international terrorism, he needed to complete a sophisticated plan in Iraq and then launch his new chess game on the doorstep of America.  This is a terrific book…”

He concludes with “White King and the Battle of America: the Endgame.”  “Another great novel that builds on the impact of radical Islam on the world and, in this case, the financial infrastructure of our societies.  Al Qaeda penetrated deeply into America, its technology, and its media–teaching their minions the power of propaganda.  Now, the end of the trilogy reveals how bankers, media moguls, and other influencers of Western power were led down a path of naivete and misguided decisions.   This is an important read for everyone…”

Jerry Molen found me after the first book.  He wrote this about “White King Rising.”  “This fast-paced, stand-alone epic has me wondering how much of it is actually fiction.   It will challenge all of your senses, and as each page reveals yet another move in the ‘game,’ it will shock, terrify and embrace your deepest fears of what tomorrow may bring.”

His comments about the final book, “White King and the Battle of America: the Endgame”  “With her unique writing prowess and prescient look into the final installment of the ‘game,’ Lee Kessler has woven a tapestry of intrigue and suspense. She takes the reader for a ride so intense the heart threatens to stop as the world arrives at the brink of financial Armageddon–at stake, the very future of America.”

And last, from Ivan Passer.  “Its main theme (terrorism) is something you and I think about anxiously almost daily.  But the surprising reward is the realization that something very frightening IS indeed happening to us–something that makes us vulnerable to an enemy who understands us better than we understand ourselves.  Lee Kessler is a veritable artist.”

For “White King Rising” he wrote, “Her almost clairvoyant take on the mindset of the United States’ deadly enemy creates an exhilarating sense of getting to know him–the most important step on the path to his annihilation.”

Here are Passer’s words about “White King and the Battle of America: the Endgame.”  “…a story so close to existing global conditions that one shudders realizing how little it would take for the bad guys to bring the world to its knees; dramatic description of Al Qaeda’s brutal business of kidnapping women; a loving peek into Montana’s unique soul; and a solution to our looming financial troubles inspired by the history and tradition of this country–so simple and beautiful that I found myself misty-eyed more than once.”

I thank each of these men for their support. The third book is the story of WHO sent the Trojan Horse I wrote to you about last week. Hint:   It is not Al Qaeda. 

I promised to tell you why I revealed these comments to you, and imposed upon your time and willingness to read them.   It is not to aggrandize myself, or sell books just to make money.   I learned long ago that any businessperson who chases money alone will lose.   But, when you create and provide a great service or product for the end user and you get it into his hands, money does follow.   It is a question of intention and sequence.

My intention has always been to give you insight and hope.   I have “seen” and assessed, apparently very accurately, what evil can do.   The books were written to save you, your children, and grand children from living in slavery.

Today, I am writing this Blog because the drumbeat that heralds the story of “White King and the Battle of America: the Endgame” has begun.  The game, in real life, has started.  There is time for you to stop it–to win.  But, you must first understand that there is an evil game being played.  Disinformation and misdirection are rampant.  You can not flinch now.  You must not look away.  “Sir Harley Grantham-Jones” is counting on the fact that you will look away, that he can deceive you. I am counting on the fact that you are better than that.

Who is Sir Harley Grantham-Jones, you ask?  Read, “White King and the Battle of America: the Endgame.”

In coming Blogs I will put a spotlight on some of the tell tale signs of the imminent attack.  Hint:   those who are promoting an upcoming Recession are part of it–wittingly or unwittingly.

“The Big Reveal”–The Underlying Cause of Mass Shootings

Published August 20, 2019 / by Lee Kessler / 3 Comments on “The Big Reveal”–The Underlying Cause of Mass Shootings
3 Replies

To begin with, buckle up everybody.   This Blog is going to be a rough ride for some of you.   For others it will be a confirmation of what you already know, or suspected.  It will require a paradigm shift to see the truth of it.   But, it is there.   It is true.   You were looking at it all along, but through a different paradigm.

For those of you who have read the three novels that became the White King Trilogy, you probably had a paradigm shift or two as you made the journey with Andy Weir and Brian Washington Carver.   If you have not read these books, I highly recommend you do so, as soon as possible–for your own mental health.   And get all of your angry unhinged friends and family to read these novels too.  They were written to reveal truth, and to produce hope and understanding, while having a lot of fun reading them.   Read the comments by Amazon readers, and you judge for yourself whether I succeeded or not.

But, time is short.   The situation is critical in the US.   And I am going to attempt to do for you in a Blog what frankly is much better done in a novel.   It is the same truth, however.  You will just have to be very brave, and very desirous of solutions, to slow down, read this, digest it, and then see what you now see after your paradigm shift.

Here are the questions:  Why are we in the US experiencing so many mass shootings (or van attacks, knife attacks, bombs etc.)?   And why is the frequency increasing?  The answer to these questions was set up in “White King and the Doctor,” and then exposed in the novel “White King Rising.”  These are the first two books in the trilogy and they `remained #1 and #4 top customer-rated books in political fiction on Amazon Kindle for 8 months!  They address a global enemy and attack line which, in order to succeed, has to neutralize the United States.   The books deal with the strategies and tactics deployed by a brilliant enemy.  And the books reveal the real target of the attack.

Buckle up.   I asked myself back in 2004, “If I wanted to take down the United States, how would I do it?   Who would I target?  What would I do to them?  Who would I use to administer the death blows?  And I answered those questions for myself, and for you, in the novels I subsequently wrote.

But, one of the strategies was to use a Trojan Horse.   Plant it inside the United States, and let the enemy slide out from the belly of the horse and attack at will–inside our own homes.  To understand how that works, you need to remember this.  Never forget it.  A Trojan Horse is accepted as a gift.   You welcome it.  You embrace it as a friend, a solution, and a wonderful gift.  You are grateful for it. And, my friends, it will KILL you!  Worse yet, you do it to yourself by accepting the Trojan Horse.

For some years I had watched the exceptional work of Citizens Commission on Human Rights–a mental health watchdog group.   I learned a great deal from their exposes, and their valiant efforts to check the power of the pharmaceutical companies–most specifically as it related to the creation of, administering of, and promulgation of mind-altering psychiatric medications.  (I challenge you to go to their website https://www.cchr.org/ to explore this in depth.)

But for our purposes today, I want to call your attention to something you have observed, but probably didn’t really “get.”   There are black box warnings on these medications.   There are disclaimers during every TV or radio ad for these drugs.   The pharmaceutical companies were forced to do this by the organization I just mentioned.   Here’s why.

Next time you turn on the TV, note, when the side-effects of the tantalizing drug the ad is promoting are being listed, that with many medications known side-effects range from headache, rash, and diarrhea to thoughts of suicide or homicide.   Now I don’t care how sick you are, you are probably not going to choose a medication that might cause you to kill yourself, or someone else!

The manufacturers will argue that the risk of that side effect is much lower than the risk of some of the more mundane side effects. They probably even have an “acceptable” risk percentage which they take to the FDA.  The issue is, and it should be obvious, the percentage should be zero.   Otherwise an unsuspecting patient may take something that will cure their sleeplessness, or irritable bowel syndrome, but will cause them to kill themselves.   That might be a good strategy if you want to reduce the planetary population and bring people into addiction so that you can control them.   But, it sure isn’t what we expect when we take a medication for a physical situation–especially when the medication is recommended by someone we trust.   Who is that?   The medical professionals.

The black box warnings talk about ideation of suicide or homicide.  So, what is “ideation?” In psychology it is defined as: (buckle up) thoughts about suicide which may be as detailed as a formulated plan. The same is true for homicidal ideation.   What’s important is that it is not just detailed thoughts about killing oneself and/or others, it can involve extensive planning of how to do that.  Thus the apparency of premeditation.

Those who have experienced this have talked about having uncontrollable thoughts and ideas about killing, compulsions which seem to come from no where, and which they can’t seem to control.   At the very least this is devastating to their confidence in themselves and their sanity, and at the worst, results in actions taken–whether they want to do it or not.

Although the cultural issues we face may seem complex, although there may be contributing factors like isolation, bullying, violent computer games, domestic abuse, violent movies etc., the actual underlying cause is likely to be proven to be something much simpler.   No less devastating, but much simpler.

I learned from a mentor long ago that when things seem so complex that we get confused, stuck, or hopeless in confronting them, it is because there are lies in the mix.  When one gets down to the simplicity, there is hope.   Truth lies in simplicity, not in complexity.   That’s why you see everyone tearing themselves apart trying to solve the mass shootings etc. in this country.   They are mired in a complexity.   And the complexity camouflages and obscures the true cause.  And, it may lead to solutions that become an even worse problem.   Witness the confusion in Washington today as every Tom, Dick, and Harry proposes their solution.

Here’s the simplicity:   Do a study to find out how many of these mass murderers were on some kind of psychotropic medication, or had just come off one.   (I believe Citizens Commission on Human Rights has been tracking this.)  Buckle up again.  I believe that if this study is done thoroughly and honestly, the percentage will be nearly 100%–if not 100%

There can always be some whacko that would have done it anyway, as they are a true homicidal sociopath.   But, in the case of most US shooters, they are mostly young boys or men who–although perhaps odd or disturbed–had never done a harmful or criminal act in their life.  Ask yourself, “Could it be they were placed on a medication by some well-meaning person who never paid attention to the black box warnings?   Could it be the drug itself caused the aberrant behavior and carnage?”

If the percentage is as I expect, you are looking at a simple truth.   The drugs which were supposed to be a defense against undesirable  mental phenomena (depression, aggression, anxiety etc) are actually an offensive chemical.   They cause the thing they were supposed to prevent.

At this point, you are going to argue with me that so many have been helped by various medications and the people did not display any of these killer side effects.   That is likely true.   Some side effects are tolerable and worth the risk.   But, what parent is going to want to take the risk that their teenager turns out to be one whose negative reaction to the drug is on the extreme end? What parent wants to take the risk that the medication they are giving could turn their child into a stone cold killer?  Russian roulette?   Suppose you or someone you know is the “unlucky” one.

Only a small percentage will get ideations of homicide, and a smaller percentage yet will likely pick up a gun or any other weapon and kill people.   So, why is the frequency increasing?

The answer is also simple.   It is not that we as a people are becoming more evil.  I understand that close to 1 in 4 Americans is now on some kind of dangerous psychiatric medication (79 million. 8 million are children, 1 million under the age of 5, and 200,000 under the age of one.) In 2013 it was 1 in 6. So, even if the percentage of people who will experience an extreme negative side effect and become killers remains the same as when the drug company made the drug, the larger quantity of people using these drugs insures that the quantity of mass murderers will increase.  Here is an example.  This is not an actual statistic, just an example for you to “think” with:  .5% of 360,000 Americans is one thing (1800). .5% of 360,000,000 is a much larger number (1.8 million).   Same percentage.   Larger pool.  Larger outcome.

IF one finds that all the mass murderers we have struggled to understand in recent years were on psychiatric medications, or had just gotten off from them, the solution is simple.  Stop promoting psychotropic medications like the anti-depressants, anti-psychotic, and anti-anxiety medications.   They are addictive at best, and deadly at their worst.  Then safely wind it down.  Take people safely through the withdrawals.   Don’t focus on the “triggers.”   They exist.   But, without the underlying drug influence, the “triggers” of life are just that–life issues.  Without the underlying drug, no bad act results.

It is important for you to note also that these drugs are not always labeled as psychotropic medications.   They may carry different names from something like Prozac or Xanax etc.   They may be prescribed for physical situations that are very real.   You will know them however by the stated side effects that the manufacturer has been forced to list.   If you see thoughts of suicide, increased aggression, or even homicide, listed, just know that even if the drug is being promoted for your migraines for example, it nonetheless has the potential side effects of the dangerous psychotropic meds.

We can not wait until the Pharmaceutical Industry has done such a good job marketing their wares that 1 in 2 Americans is on meds which may turn the user into a mass murderer.  The doctors and the manufacturers will try to distract you and confuse you.   They are diving in right now to say, “We need more Mental Health.   We need more screening.   We need more preventative medication (defense). They are doing this because they know it will be easier for them to get  you to capitulate and do more “Mental Health” than it will be for them to get you to give up guns.   They are also very smart and know that the Constitution prohibits certain knee-jerk solutions.   But, if we do something that is constitutional to ourselves, by our own choice, they can win.  And they can never be faulted.  We did it to ourselves.

No. What we need is some good offense of our own.   Find out the common denominator.   Approach this rationally and scientifically.    Work backwards to the source.

And then be prepared for the fight of your life, my friends.

There is in fact an enemy who is doing something to you.   Until now, he has been camouflaged and contained in the Trojan Horse.  He has been hidden.  That enemy has his reasons and his motives.   Do not expect him to give up without a fight.

My prayer for you is that you are not ON any of these medications when you try to solve this.

All of this is of course my opinion based upon my research.  You could dismiss this Blog saying, “well that’s just her opinion!”  You could.   But, do so at your own peril.  Worse yet, at the peril of your children.

 

 

Back to Crossfire Hurricane

Published July 21, 2019 / by Lee Kessler / 1 Comment on Back to Crossfire Hurricane

In an earlier Blog, I asked the question who was the target of this Operation Crossfire Hurricane?   Who was caught in the crossfire, and who did it?   Here are some answers.

The target was candidate Donald Trump and his campaign.   When that failed to stop his election, President Trump became the target.   Sadly, it was done–not just by foreign adversaries, but by the top echelon of the FBI, and, I believe, the CIA and other Intelligence personnel.

Almost a magic act of deception and misdirection, a lie was concocted and then planted, and then bounced around the country.   Sucked into its hurricane were media journalists like Michael Isikoff, Senators like John McCain., Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Atty General Rod Rosenstein.   Begun by Peter Stok, Andrew McCabe, and Lisa Page most likely, it appears to have been orchestrated by FBI Dir. James Comey, CIA director John Brennan, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper.  Other names to pay attention to as the data surfaces, and the evidence mounts are Sally Yates, Samantha Powers, Loretta Lynch, and the former President. The question to answer is this:  Who ordered the implementation of Crossfire Hurricane?  Who in the UK, Australia, Ukraine, and Italy were complicit?

The objective?  to take down the President of the United States.

Why? In investigations one has to identify the Who, the What, the When, the Where.  But, there will always be an underlying Why.  Some of you may not care to know the Why.   Some of you may be gleeful that for whatever reason they did it, you won’t pursue it because you have disdain for this President, and don’t really care what happens to him.

Now, here’s the point.   This time they did it to my guy.  The next time, it will be done to your guy.  None of these people care about Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal.   They care about power and control.   And you, the American people, got in their way.   Certain they were set for life, the American people threw the grenade called Donald Trump into their cozy little den.   His presence threatened everything.

But, be sure, you are the ones they hate.   Why?   Because you have the annoying habit of believing you are smart, insightful; you have the tendancy to make decisions and to think independently.  Further, you are operating under the delusion–in their opinion–that you are the boss, and they are working for you.

To them, you are stupid and self-centered, and need to be governed. You were called “Deplorable” and recently you have been called “Garbage.”  James Comey last week said that you were a mob that should be put in a dark corner. Don’t miss this people. Regrettably, Crossfire Hurricane spilled out into our lives as well.   Donald Trump was not the only victim here. You were also the victim–and in my opinion the actual intended target.

You stepped out of line.   You superseded your “authority” in their minds.   You sent a true change agent.  And that person was capable of dismantling all their power and money structure.  Why?  Because, as an executive, he has the habit of asking the question, “Why?”   It’s part of the package of true executives.  They need to know why something is working or not working, why stats are going up or down, why public relations are strong or not strong.   The list of questions is endless, but always governed by the need to know the real reason why.   Once they identify the underlying “why” they can begin to fix and expand.

The American people sent an executive to Washington, not a self-serving, career-enhancing politician.   And that was a “sin” in the minds of the authoritarian swamp rats.   They may know that they can not get rid of the guy–at least by now they know that.  But the real message is one for YOU.   The message?   Don’t ever do this again.  If you try, we will destroy you, and anyone connected to you.

Talk about voter suppression!  Something to think about, my friends.   Something to think about…

Be A Fruit Inspector

Published July 12, 2019 / by Lee Kessler / 1 Comment on Be A Fruit Inspector
1 Reply

Years ago, a mentor of mine taught me and my business colleagues that if we were going to be leaders of people that we should learn what it is to be a fruit inspector, not a judge in black robes.

This lesson has completely escaped the MedIa and a very shrill public who seem not to understand a basic botany fact.    The fact is:  a bad tree cannot produce good fruit.   But a good tree can.   So, when in doubt about someone, look to what they produce–the “fruit.”  If it is good fruit, even though you may have a distaste for the person, or his/her appearance, or mannerisms, or leadership style, if it is good “fruit” the tree is good.

Instead, in today’s America, we are being programmed to put on black robes, and judge everyone and everything–based upon our own biases, and in many cases our own ignorance and emotional immaturity.   Make no mistake, when you are “triggered”–as I have covered many times relevant to Propaganda Warfare, and the stimulus-response reaction it produces–it is proof to others that you are not in control of your emotions.   Someone else is.   Who is that?   And what is their motive?

Could it be they want to trick you into believing that “bad” fruit is “good,” and good for you?   They may even look great, sound great, speak smoothly with platitudes galore, but what is their fruit?   Is anything improving?

So, let’s take a look, for example,  at some of the President’s “fruit.”  You have been told repeatedly that he is evil, vile, nefarious, inept, and the worst thing that could have happened to the United States.   Your disdain is so great that you may not want to hear the truth about Operation Crossfire Hurricane.   All right.   Let’s accept that.   But let’s just look then at some of the fruit on the tree of this President so far:

  1.  African-American unemployment is at an all-time low.
  2. Hispanic unemployment is at an all-time low.
  3. Hispanic incomes rising.
  4. Female unemployment is the lowest since 1969.
  5. Income for Americans has risen at least 3%.  (As it continues to rise, the middle class is being rebuilt)
  6. GDP is above 3% when the previous administration prepared us for a new normal of 1-2%, if I remember.
  7. Regulations lifted have allowed companies to expand, and are hiring.
  8. Companies that fled the US for economic reasons are returning.
  9. Mexico is cooperating more than ever on controlling the border to the US, and beginning to tackle the Drug Cartels.
  10. We have full, albeit emotional, attention on our own southern border.
  11. He and the First Lady are attacking the Opioid Epidemic head on.
  12. 3 Million Americans have come off food stamps.
  13. He is working diligently on the Balance of Trade Deficit with China and others.  (Our balance of trade deficit has been a problem since I was a National Debate person debating the issue back in the late 1960’s)
  14. He has brought the N. Korean dictator to the table to negotiate. (The entry point to resolving conflict is in fact communication.   If there is no communication, nothing changes.)
  15. The President of South Korea has publicly stated, and I heard this myself. “You are truly the Peacemaker.”
  16. The Caliphate has been destroyed.  Though Al Qaeda and Isis still exist, the land they took for their Caliphate has been retaken, and many enemy killed.
  17. He has started Opportunity Zones in the inner cities and rural areas where the youth have no economic opportunity and where crime is high. The program is designed to bring business and jobs to these areas, coupled with education, and security.
  18. He has reformed prison sentencing, so that people don’t end up serving a life sentence for a crime that should not carry that. He has worked on in-prison reforms that truly prepare the parolee for a Fresh Start.
  19. He is proposing that the Pell Grants be changed to allow African-Americans and others to use the grant for education which results in high paying jobs. Taking two years, and preparing those who want for jobs in trucking and manufacturing etc.
  20. Overall unnemployment is at an all-time low, in my lifetime.   (By the way, only 1 in 15 of those employed now has two or more jobs. The rest are living on just one job.  I believe that is the current stat.)

Look at it.   We do best when we look, don’t listen.   We can check the stats with the various government agencies who track the results of programs.

So, how’s the fruit on the tree?
