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.
TPP Call – 11/19
1. Constitution Minute: Chris Wright
State Constitutions & the federal Constitution together, provide a thorough explanation of U.S. laws.
2. D.C. Report: Bill Pascoe
The house & senate are on vacation, this week. Last week, the house passed a tax reduction /simplification bill. Importantly, the bill includes a provision to remove the obama care mandates. Congress will probably stall on passage of a new federal funding bill past the December 8 deadline. This will allow passage of a temporary bill with budget spending limit increases.
3. TPP Current Objectives
TPP Teamed with Mr. Art Laffler(former president Reagan appointee), to provide an estimate of the political/ financial impact of the current house tax bill. The TPP web site has detail lists of all of the TPP tax bill related action items. Included are house parties, tax coalition memberships, signing petitions, letters to politicians, & letters to editors.
4. Q & A
TPP Call – 11/12
1. Constitution Minute-Chris Wright
The Constitution specifies that congress must issue declarations of war. Obama violated this requirement several times by stating that what he authorized were not full scale wars. This has resulted in a need to enforce the requirement that only congress can declare war.
2. Current Congressional Tax Reduction/code simplification bill situation- Guest Speaker; ex congressman; David McIntosh
Mr. McIntosh gave a description of the current bill features. He emphasized the economic growth provisions. He cautioned for Tea Party members not to believe democratic class warfare claims.
3. D.C. Report- Bill Pascoe
A six month old Comey E mail has been found where he described Hillary Clinton’s actions as “gross negligence”. In his subsequent verbal discussions he described her Email activities in “watered down terminology” that is not open to legal actions. The IRS manager, Kosigen was fired. Before leaving; as a last “action”, he made sure that hundreds of IRS notices of financial claims were mailed to non participants of obama care insurance. President Trump cabinet confirmations are continuing to be very slow. The next congressional budget will not likely be ready before the December 8 deadline. A temporary bill will likely be issued for funding through next September. The first senate tax bill proposal was issued last Thursday.

5. Q & A- Signed off here
TPP Call – 10/22
1. Constitution Minute; Chris Wright
There were mass protests & violent rioting in D.C. during President Trump’s inauguration. Lawsuits resulting from damage claims and rioter behaviors are nearly ready to go to trial. Since D.C. is 95% politically democrat, the anticipated trial results are not favorable.
2. D.C. Update; Bill Pascoe
There were lengthy debates about Iran not adhering to the obama program agreements; with possible U.S. responses.
The senate passed a budget resolution bill. This eliminates the ability for democrats to utilize filibusters to interfere with proposed tax changes.
Two additional Presidential nominees were confirmed.
The democrats are trying to restore the obama care insurance company subsidies that were cancelled by the President. Although these subsidies are not currently a legal feature of obama care, the democrats believe they can find a “back door” way to make them legal.
Relative to the sale of U.S. uranium to Russia, there is strong evidence that the FBI (Mueller was then the Director), knew that the Russians were then in the process of bribing state department officials, but this was never made public or acted on by the administration. There is also a witness to the bribing activities that has been to date, silenced by the then administration. This witness now has hired a well known lawyer who is working to allow the witness to testify unhampered.
3. TPP Actions; JBM
There currently is a focus on tax reform. The TPP website has a detailed description of current activities. These include house parties, calls to congress, flag & sign waving rallies, letters to the editors and post cards to congress.

The left’s primary anti Constitution effort is to dispute that our basic rights come from God.
2. D.C. Report; Bill Pascoe
The U.S. is developing a new strategy to confront Iran. The first step is to deny certification of the Obama agreement.
President Trump, with substantial help from Senator Rand Paul is preparing to release by executive order, “Association Health Care”. This will circumvent a substantial portion of Obamacare. The President is also considering stopping illegal health care company payouts. A number of states are preparing lawsuits in an attempt to keep the pay outs.
President Trump’s political nomination confirmations are still being seriously delayed.

The house is working on a budget reconciliation bill. Administration appointees continue to be slowly approved. Dr. Price has resigned in response to charges that he has charged as much as one million government dollars for personal travel costs.
