A Time for War: The Gathering Storm

A Time for War: The Gathering Storm
By David Prentice

Most everyone entrenched on both sides of this cold civil war feels it coming.  The thunder and lightning have been getting closer.   For the better part of a year, we’ve been listening to the noise getting louder, and the flashes, good Lord, sometimes they get brighter by the minute.   Many think the storm started on Nov. 9, 2016.  Whichever, we all feel it.

This past weekend was a perfect example.  Brian Ross starts a series of false reports, so bad that the stock market dives, the leftist media breathlessly reports that President Trump is finished, and do their version of a happy dance.  Except, the report was not true, the networks once again proved to be unworthy sources of news, just repeating a false narrative. 

Then the tax plan surprisingly passed the Senate.   The left, as usual, had a collective hissy fit, droning on about how lost we are as a country.  Oh, the horror!  Tax cuts!!  We’re doomed!!!  Doomed they say!!!!  For the first time in decades the Democratic Party is pretending to be concerned about our debt.

Yes, the storm is close.  Special Counsel Robert Mueller has a new scalp; General Michael Flynn pleads guilty of lying to the FBI.   The story has been reported quite poorly, very few understand what Flynn actually cut a deal for.  There are various theories, but let me say this:  All is not as it seems.   We won’t likely know until next year at earliest what is actually going on.  Andrew McCarthy’s article in National Review last week explained things as well as possible, but truth be known, very little is anything but fog right now.  The fog of war.

If you had told me we would already be experiencing 3%+ growth, close to 25% increase in the stock market, that we’d be out of the Paris Climate Accords, becoming energy independent, had a great replacement for former Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia while remaking the judiciary, getting tax cuts, voting out the Obamacare mandate, remaking the Middle East, that China would help us with Rocket Man, that illegal immigration would be cut by 75% to the lowest level in some 42 years (and that  without the wall), that Trump would have driven the media to commit institutional  suicide daily, all the while the left pulls its hair out on an hourly basis, I would have said you’re a little torched.  Trust me, this is almost miraculous.

Worth repeating... so... I will:

We're getting tax cuts?

We're voting out the Obamacare Mandate?
