Weekly Wrap-Up

Is Chuck Schumer now the most powerful man in America? That would be bad news for America, which is why many conservatives are deeply troubled by this week’s budget deal between President Trump, Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.

But do House Republicans have any room to criticize, when the only thing they seem capable of doing is spending money?

For the first question in our new Weekly Poll, I want to know how concerned you are over the Trump/Schumer/Pelosi deal. I look forward to seeing the response on this one.

Our second Weekly Poll question deals with the upcoming statewide vote on the proposed Constitutional Convention. In his New York Post column, George Marlin outlines key reasons why the Conservative Party and other groups oppose the Constitutional Convention. Which potential outcome of the Convention alarms you the MOST?

Speaking of the upcoming elections, conservative mayoral candidate Nicole Malliotakis is out with her first campaign ad, and it is literally a hard-hitting piece. You can watch it here.

This week President Trump kept a campaign promise by ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) implemented unilaterally by Barack Obama for illegal alien “dreamers” that are celebrated by the left. The issue now goes to Congress for a proper legislative solution.

While there may be no such thing as a “deserving” dreamer, many believe that President Trump was right to make Congress resolve this issue through its legislative powers, combined with the checks-and-balances outlined in the Constitution.

What do you think is the BEST reason for eliminating the DACA program? That’s the third and final question in our new Weekly Poll.

As all this is going on, President Trump is doing a great job of nominating lower-level judges and reshaping the federal judiciary. Now if liberals in the Senate would stop their gridlock and end their religious tests and anti-Catholic bigotry. Could you imagine if a Muslim judicial nominee was attacked this way by a Republican?

Finally – we’ve been discussing the problem of voter fraud in recent weeks, and this week saw new evidence from New Hampshire that fake voters can decide an election.  We’ll be keeping an eye on this.

Have a great weekend!
