    Trumps Tariffs

    Trumps Tariffs

    I sure hope so. I don't mind the tariffs because I agree with the founders and do not believe in directly taxing peoples income. So I found Trumps tariffs as a another form of a sales tax which I am in favor off. However, I missed it until this weekend. Was listening to his Memorial Day...

    President Trump’s Christianity

    I read the article and not sure what benefits are being cut since the budget was raised by 4%. They are cutting jobs or personnel is what they are doing. This won't slow down vets healthcare because if the time frame that they can be seen for a problem is longer than 20 days for primary care...

    President Trump’s Christianity
