FreedomWorks at Boca on Thursday 1/4/17

For over a quarter century, FreedomWorks has identified, educated, and actuated citizens who are enthused about showing up to support free enterprise and constitutionally limited government.

They are not primarily a “think-tank,” content to study the issues and publish papers and reports. FreedomWorks breaks down the barriers between the beltway insiders and grassroots America.

FreedomWorks members know that government goes to those who show up. That’s why they give them the tools to break through the media noise and provide the same access to Washington as the big-moneyed lobbyists.

Preserving liberty depends on all Americans having access to their elected officials—not just special interests. FreedomWorks holds Washington accountable to the citizens that put them in office.

FreedomWorks was originally founded as Citizens for a Sound Economy in 1984. Founded to fight for liberty, they brought together some of the best and brightest minds of the liberty movement. Since then, they’ve expanded their ambitions from a free-market think tank to a service center for the grassroots freedom movement across the whole country.

TPP Call – 12/10/17

1. Constitution Minute- Chris Wright

The federal government is slowly imposing sanctions on the 4th amendment that could result in loss of a basic public protection from unreasonable searches. The supreme court is preparing for a review of the feds actions.

2. D.C. Report; Bill Pascoe

The two main current issues before congress are tax reform and the next budget bill resolution. The current tax reform bill is in the conference reconciliation work stage. Time is of the essence, since the congress Christmas vacation is less than two weeks away. The planed reconciliation completion date is 12/20. Two of the primary issues are elimination of the Obamacare mandates and the insurance company bail outs.

There will very likely be a temporary budget proposal to meet the pre Christmas deadline. The democrats are proposing a DACA restart add to the budget bill or they are likely to attempt to force a government shut down.

3. TPP Calls To Action; JBM

Go to the TPP web site for detail. No DACA restart & elimination of the Obamacare mandates.

TPP Call – 12/4

1. Constitution Minute – Chris Wright

The Consumer Protection Finance Board (CPFB), has deviated from the explicit U.S. Constitution separation of powers( executive, legislative, judicial) requirement. The U.S. Congress has delegated a portion of their normal powers to the board. The TPP are working to correct this
situation.

2. D.C. Report- Bill Pascoe

The house returns from vacation this week, with one of their major goals; to pass a new national funding bill. The senate passed a tax reform bill by a 51/49 margin. The house & senate bills now go to the conference resolution process. The goal is to have a resolved senate/house bill on the president’s desk before the end of the year. The senate bill removes the o’care individual mandate requirement, but the house bill does not. A federal judge has ruled that the president can legally appoint the CPFB board manager. This is a major presidential political victory. General Flynn has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI in his testimony during the Mueller “Paper Chase” investigation. But this appears to have no legal connection/impact to the Mueller investigation stated intent. Two gun control law changes are in congressional review. First is a proposed extension to the concealed carry state to state reciprocity. The second is a proposal to make weapons government permit requirements more limited. There is an active debate about the current congress member available funding for U.S. taxpayers to pay for sexual harassment charge defense.

3. JBM- TPP Activities

The current funding goal has been met. Many thanks to the contributors. The current concentration is on the tax bill revision proposals. Consult the TPP web site for current status. This week, letters were sent to congress on the tax bill change goals and relative to the current wave of sexual harassment charges.

4. Q & A

Signed off at this point.

TRIPE TWEETS

It is sad watching the President of the United States (POTUS) issuing nonsense tweets.

Many of his tweets complain about various criminal activities and ask why the Justice Department is not doing something about them.

It is sad because Article II of the Constitution of the United States grants POTUS the executive power to enforce the laws of the country. He should not merely be tweeting questions about the lack of activity of the Attorney General; he should be ensuring that the Attorney General prosecutes unlawful behavior.

Why is POTUS not ensuring the Attorney General prosecute the criminal activities POTUS complains about? Why is the Attorney General unwilling or unable to fulfill his responsibilities?

It is all most peculiar. It is reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland.

The following are examples of nonsense tweets:

Many people in our Country are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, AFTER receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and “acid washed” 33,000 Emails? No justice!

“people … are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about … Crooked Hillary, deleted … 33,000 Emails?”

The House of Representatives seeks contempt citations(?) against the JusticeDepartment and the FBI for withholding key documents and an FBI witness which could shed light on surveillance of associates of Donald Trump. Big stuff. Deep State. Give this information NOW! @FoxNews

“The House of Representatives seeks contempt citations(?) against the JusticeDepartment and the FBI … Give this information NOW!”

Charles McCullough, the respected fmr Intel Comm Inspector General, said public was misled on Crooked Hillary Emails. “Emails endangered National Security.” Why aren’t our deep State authorities looking at this? Rigged & corrupt? @TuckerCarlson @seanhannity
