Donald Trump and the Tightrope of Eminent Domain

Image
The End Justifies the Means First off, I want to make clear that this is not a “hit piece” or somehow “anti-Trump” in any way. I have not chosen a candidate to support yet and therefore am free to criticize any and all to whatever degree necessary. My goal is to bring forward facts to a candid world for you to make your own determination. In previous articles I have pointed out some concerns with Donald Trump. But in this article I hope to explain a very important issue that I’m afraid many either don’t know about or if they do know, mistakenly believe that it is too far over their head to understand. This issue is known as eminent domain. Eminent domain is technically defined as: “The right of a government or its agent to expropriate [or take away] private property for public use, with payment of compensation.” This “doctrine” of eminent domain comes from the final part of the Fifth Amendment which reads, “....nor shall private property be taken for public use, witho

Why the Supreme Court’s Ruling on “Marriage” Does Not Matter

I will not berate you again with how misguided and ill-advised the five Supreme Court Justices who handed down the majority decision in Obergefell v. Hodges were. Doubtlessly you have seen that. (If not, however, check out this article which does an excellent job explaining.) No, rather, with this article, I want to explain why this decision does not matter. In the slightest. Supreme Court of the United States Having read any of my previous articles, you may be surprised that I take this stance. Allow me then to explain. It’s nothing new, merely codified acceptance of another unnatural behavior. If we live in a nation that has accepted so-called “gay marriage”, then all the Supreme Court has done is vocalize a belief that the majority of the country already had. But do we? As a nation, have we truly accepted “gay marriage”? The fact that well over half of the states defined marriage as “one man and one woman” by popular vote would definitely lead one to question that. I

Peace Through Strength - North Korea & Iran vs. America

The world benefits from a strong America. 3 American prisoners were being held in North Korea. Take a minute and let that sink in. Americans were being held against their will in hard labor prison camps. Now those 3 men are free. North Korea and South Korea are seeing tensions relaxing. While just a few months ago, the world collectively worried that North Korea was about to try and obliterate something off the map with nuclear weapons, we are now seeing the very real possibility that they will sit down and consider relinquishing those nuclear weapons. America has pulled out of the ill-advised Iran Nuclear Deal . Instead of allowing them to continue developing nuclear capabilities with “supervision”, the US will now reimpose strict sanctions against a country that is a state sponsor of terrorism around the world. As much as Trump would probably like to take credit for all these advancements, many, many people have been involved and working hard to make these things ha

The Invincible Trump - Understanding Why

Image
There is a mystery that has baffled the wisest among us. But today I reveal the answer. Today I reveal how and why Trump continues to endure though riddled with scandals, flip flops, and bad tweeting.   Why The Left Doesn’t Understand The liberal mainstream media and the left (but I repeat myself) have been completely baffled ever since November 8, 2016. Trump was not supposed to be elected. However, in the last couple weeks, their head scratching has reach new heights of intensity. Kanye West gave a tacit endorsement of Trump despite the fact that Kanye is black and (according to the left) all black people hate Trump. Trump’s approval rating is climbing and is currently knocking on 50% even while the Stormy Daniels scandal continues to unravel. Trump spoke at the NRA Convention mere weeks after the Parkland shooting . Despite millions of dollars of taxpayer money being spent, the Russia investigation is still dragging on with no end or revelation in sight.  Any on
