SUGGESTIONS FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP REGARDING THE DACA FIASCO. DON'T BUCKLE TO SCHUMER AND PELOSI.-STRICT RULES SHOULD BE DEMANDED.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

 President Trump should be careful dealing with  Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. They really  do not like Trump and will continue to  resist any plan  the president has in mind. These two  do not want to see  the president succeed and will not allow him to pass any of his intended bills.  Schumer and Pelosi are known for promising the Republicans certain  things during a negotiation but after the Republicans  give the  two what they want, Pelosi and Schumer renege on their promises.

A good example is the recent deal the president made with these two Democrats over the DACA problem. After the  deal between the parties the two Democrats said  the deal did not fund the Wall which  President Trump promised to his  voters. Trump  gave concessions to these two resisters and  failed to receive anything in return. Talk about a bum deal--this is one.

I suggest that before president Trump and the Republicans cave in again to the Democrats  and give away the store on DACA and the immigration solution, they should insist that the Democrats agree to fund the wall. Any deal with the Democrats  regarding DACA should include a mandatory E-Verify system so as to discourage employers from hiring illegal aliens. And E-Verify should be enforced by stiff fines to any employer that hires illegal aliens. The DACA plan should also include a safe and secure entry-exit system so there will be be a way to track visitors to this country and prevent anyone from overstaying their visa. Finally the deal should include agreement that all state and local entities  show full cooperation with the feds.

Folks, the GOP and its  weak,spineless leaders have made  crappy deal after crappy deal for decades. Most were all one-sided. And these one-sided deals  gave the Republican party nothing in return.

The president should pull out on the stops on his deal making talents and refuse to give in to the naysayers.  When he puts together the DACA deal with Congress I would like to  suggest he include a  super massive tax cut to juice the economy. The tax cuts must be very large for each and every income group in the country.  Such a  move would certainly stimulate the economy and produce millions of jobs for the middle-class. Also, no matter what Schumer and Pelosi said and did during their  previous deal with the president he and Congress should "build the wall." Another area to include in any DACA would be to end anchor babies end the birthright that illegals have for citizenship.

Ending the birthright for illegal aliens would  immediately stop  another 800,000 to a million illegal alien children from becoming citizens like this current batch we are now dealing with. I believe that  if we do not stop the birthright of illegal aliens we will never solve any DACA problem.

Any DACA agreement  and/or law should also mandate that:

If any of the DACA applicants have indeed committed a crime while in the U.S.: DEPORTED, no question asked. If they fraudulently obtained a social security card, fraudulently  collected  welfare or  benefits  from city, county , state or the federal government: DEPORTED. If any applicant cast a vote in any election while here in the U.S.,that's fraud. Again, DEPORTED.

Further, any DACA agreement or law for these 800,000 to a million DACA people should include a stipulation and demand that they must sign and agree to not accept freebies from the government, which should  include but not limited to such things as,  going on the dole with welfare, collecting food stamps and/or any type of  public  assistance and/or support for a least seven years after  the DACA program/law is passed. Another point should be  a demand for these people to have  language skills in English or, DEPORTED. Another requirement I would suggest for the DACA law is: Each and every one of these DACA individuals should have to serve in our U.S. military--what better way to show we, the American people, that they are serious about integrating into the American way? Maybe offer them a choice--the military or  a program like the peace corp.

These DACA  applicants and the Democrats say this particular group wants to integrate into America and the American way of life.They also insist they are here in America because they want t work. Well I say, knowing how to speak English and holding down  a job, and not collecting free handouts from the government will have them prove their claims. - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

I REFUSE TO PAY TO SEE AN NFL GAME. I WOULD'T GO IF THEY EVEN OFFERED TO  PAY ME.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

JD from Cleveland, Ohio asked me for my opinion on the NFL controversy. So here it is.

First, I believe very strongly that all Americans have a right to offer their opinions and political and personal convictions. However,  we are the "United States." the key word being "UNITED." And being united should mean believing in God, flag, and country. All of us Amnerican's learned from childhood to Pledge Allegiance to our wonderful country by placing our hand over our heart and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and stand for the National Anthem. We were all taught to be a PROUD AMERICAN and be PROUD of our country.

I believe the NFL players have disrespected our flag, country, and American values, by taking a knee when the national anthem is played--save one player who stood in "respect" to our flag, "The Star-Spangled Banner," and country, Kudos and my appreciation to Pittsburgh Steelers offensive, Alejandro Villanueva. What I don't appreciate is that the coach basically asked Villanueva to make a choice by using "tribe" mentality, telling him to choose between his teammates  or being  shunned by his team. Afterword's it appears Villanueva had second thoughts and  took a step back from his brave stance and suggested he  should have stuck with his teammates.What? This brave military veteran  should not have to be ashamed of respecting the flag and country. I think he should hold to his beliefs and if his weak minded fellow players and coach resent him going out and honoring America--that's tough. I say let these losers who decided not to stand with him lose their respect and reputation  in the sports world.

Villanueva completed several tours in Afghanistan, fighting and protecting our rights, privileges and freedoms we have in America. This man chose to "serve" our country. He did his patriotic duty for love of flag and country, and served in the military, like many of us did.

This Steeler knew what he fought for and what the Star-Spangled Banner" and  flag means to this country.

What is the matter with these clowns who are wearing a costume(which they refer a uniform), and who are playing a kids game, while raking in millions and millions of dollars  each "because they are in America?" If they really wanted to be a contributor to the American way why didn't most of these week-kneed jokers wear a "REAL UNIFORM", like Villanueva, and serve in the military. I believe that if these idiots had a taste of serving in our military they would know the value of flag and country.

I would bet that a person could count on one hand, the number of these NFL players that have actually served in our military service.  For those few players that did serve I have enormous respect and appreciation for them, HOORAY!. For those loser NFL players, who probably could not cut it in the military- I hold no respect at all.

The tribal thinking the NFL players have is apparently to stick together as a majority and snivel and complain. My question would be--complain about what?  These feeling offended cry baby's let other men and women in uniform allow them to become some of the richest and most looked up to figures in the history of the world-- and what do they do? They refuse to  offer the slightest honor for a few minutes to the country and the flag which allowed them to become who they are today. I see it as these NFL players giving the finger to all of the sports fans in America--the ordinary people who gave them their wealth.

Disrespecting (dissing)  all of the fans and the American people who cannot  even  imagine the wealth these men amass is bluntly, showing  how ungrateful and disrespectful they are to the millions of Americans who actually pay their salaries.

Groups like the NFL with such  tribal think often say, "You're "dissing me." They say they do not like to be disrespected. Are you kidding me? Groups like this, with their group think, who say they do not get respect clearly  show total  "disrespect" for our flag, national anthem, and country. Hey NFL players, you cannot to get respect unless you  actually know how to give respect. And to top it off some of these same NFL players  went to Britain to play a game--when  the national anthem  of Britain played "God Save the Queen," the players stood and showed respect, but when the "Star-Spangled Banner" was played, they showed total disrespect for America and took a knee. That says a lot folks. I believe these money-grubbing NFL players need a lesson in Civics and become informed about how the "Star-Spangled Banner," and respect for the flag and country came about,

This NFL movement started with  Colin Kaepernick taking a knee, a player who wore socks on the playing field showing  cops, dressed as pigs. Where is his respect for  people that wear a REAL UNIFORM? And, this  over-the-hill athlete  dares to say people "diss" him.  This loser then  said that there is a lot of  social injustice in America and that is why he and his fellow athletes take a knee.

True, there is social injustice in America. There always has been and  always will be. However there are times and places to express your views and it certainly is not on a playing field, in or out of our country, where  fans had come to enjoy a sports game. I suggest that if these overpaid losers want to express their views, feeling  and emotions --do it on their own time, "off the field." These  wealthy game players can rent a hall and voice their views about  social injustice all night long to those who are interested in attending; they can march and peacefully protest in the streets of America; get involved in politics and run for office; better yet, take some of the millions and millions of dollars they possess and throw it into the various groups who agree and push their same social justice agenda.

I suggest there are numerous ways to have your voice heard--that's America. Free speech is a wonderful thing. But to mix politics with sports in front of millions of fans both at the stadium and at home who only wanted to see a "GAME." is not the forum.

And finally, talking about how disrespectful the NFL players are:  One player was invited to the White House  to be honored for his accomplishments in the sports arena. But the player refused the invitation. Then, when the White House revoked the invitation, he and the NFL yelled and screamed bloody murder. This moron chose to disrespect the office of the president. So he and the NFL should not be surprised when the invitation was revoked. I suggest that when anyone in America is invited to the White House, they should accept the invitation.  The outright hate for our president by certain groups is an outrage. -- And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. Yo decide.

BEFORE DREAMERS GET A FREE PASS THERE HAS TO BE A GUARANTEED STRICT POLICY TO PREVENT A FUTURE DREAMER INVASION.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

There are currently 800,000 illegal aliens who are  currently considered "DREAMERS, under the DACA program, which was initiated by former president Obama.  However there are a reported 200,000 more "Dreamers" in the pipeline, awaiting clearance. Wow! One million people who want to stay in America. Many of the dreamers are now in their 20's and 30's. But there is a number of misconceptions about these dreamers. Here are just a few which the liberal open border crowd  want to push on the public to to make their case for dreamer amnesty.

1.  90 percent and more of the dreamers are employed. That's a farce. The figure was plucked out of the air. There has never been any concrete data or documentation  assembled to support this frivolous claim.

2. The dreamers  have been paying billions of dollars in taxes. Wrong, wrong, wrong , folks. Since the dreamers were brought here at the young age of 5,6, 7,8,  as claimed, and now are in their 20's and 30's, the  massive  amount claimed to paid in  taxes could not be  mathematically possible.

3. A majority of the dreamers are  currently serving in the United States military. That is a big, big whopper.  It is estimated that there are only (800) dreamers currently serving in our  military service. Again, do the math folks,. That probably comes out to far lest than 0.1 percent of the dreamers.

It appears the supporters of the dreamers want you to believe there are tons of these dreamers serving in our military--talk about fuzzy math. The dreamer crowd has no qualms about misleading and using misinformation.

4. The  dreamers were brought to America by their illegal parents. That is partly true.  Many were. But according to Obama's rules-- you just have to have entered the USA illegally before the age of 16-years-old. Thus, many minors came into the country on their own. Remember the large influx of minor children  who came here on their own in the recent past?

5.  As to the dreamers being in college, the military, and being  high school graduates is a bug misnomer. All Obama required was that the person "be enrolled" in high school, even in an alternative program like an on-line study course.

6. For the most part, the dreamers who are working only hold down minimum wage jobs. It's a big lie to say most dreamers are in college and  holding down well paying jobs. Fact is, many dropped out of school. It is fiction to say the dreamers are scientists, military personnel, police officers, and firefighters,who are a  group wrapped in the American flag and patriotic , Many of the dreamers still refuse to speak English and assimilate into American society.

I still hold the opinion we should not allow an amnesty program for these dreamers. Once the lawmakers allow them to stay in the country every other minor child from around the world will know that all they have to do is illegally sneak into America and they too, will be a citizen. Then, where will it stop? That's wrong.

President Reagan  gave amnesty to about three million illegal aliens in 1986. The lawmakers at the time promised the American people that the amnesty program was a one time thing. The president and Congress said the borders would be secure, preventing any further illegal aliens from entering the country. We all know how that promise turned out, don't we?Now we have  approximately between 12 and 20 million illegals  residing here.

We also have to halt this "chain" migration. Why can new citizens bring in their siblings, and adult children, who can bring in their children, their grandparents, and even their in-laws? If we allow these dreamers the privilege to become citizens and  they in turn bring in all of their relatives we will have millions and millions more of additional migrants. And based on past experience these new arrivals will in all likelihood be low-skilled individuals.

I would suggest to president Trump and the administration that before  any idea  and/or form of amnesty for the DACA immigrants is even considered, some major changes in the way the immigration system  now works should be put into place.

(A) I would suggest the administration and Congress make it mandatory that the E-verify system  be put into place, which would allow "all" employers in the country to check and verify the legal status of all new employees.

(B) Cease and halt any policy that currently allows distant relative to be brought into the  country. Eliminate all chain migration.

(C) Do away with the "anchor baby" program. Automatic citizenship for newborns by an immigrant is not appropriate. The newborn should be a citizen of  the parents "country of origin."

Allowing  the dreamers into the  United states is an act of amnesty. It clearly is not a move at preventing future large, unruly waves of illegal immigrants. -- And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

INFORMATION ON AN EPILEPSY PROBLEM.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Reply to  GS:

 Some of the information you offered about your condition said that your hand shook uncontrollably for at least three hours. You say your hand had been giving you problems for years and continually shakes when you read a book, newspaper and write, or hold something like a coffee cup. You also mention you have a history of two different types of epilepsy. Based on the information you provided, here is my opinion, without making any medical claims or offering you medical advice.

GS,   Since you  suffer from epilepsy  you are already familiar with seizures. Seizures can be described as generalized, meaning that it affects both sides of one's brain.  However a focal manifestation  will only affect one side of the brain. But remember, people with epilepsy can  also experience  generalized and focal seizures.

Generalized seizures  display motor problems, which are the  tonic-clonic type seizure (what some refer to as  "grand mal" (or) non-motor problems---absent a seizure (what some refer to as' petit mal).

Seizures often effect one's consciousness. From your  description I would suspect  a "focal" type seizure,  since what you describe does not  affect your consciousness. This type also  is referenced as "epilepsia partialis continua." This usually occurs in those people who have a history of epilepsy. It generally  comes to the forefront if and when the person is experiencing stressful situations.

Thank you for your inquiry.-- That's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

THE SWAMP RATS IN THE WASHINGTON SWAMP SHOULD TAKE A PAGE FROM TEXAS.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Hurricane Harvey really brings out the best in Americanism. I was truly impressed with all of the first responders actions and behaviors in Houston this past week. As the many videos and film reports flashed across my television set,day and night, I have to  tip my hat to all of the members of our military, the National Guard and the Coast Guard.

These unselfish men and women made rescue after rescue of thousands of men, women and children. And lets not forget all of the pets and animals they retrieved from danger.  Talk about heroes--the first responders went above and  beyond even when some of the saviors had their own homes and property flooded out. Remarkable! Texas and the  people that responded to the call is one of bravery, and hope.

Imagine the long hours,  and the treacherous  conditions they worked  under. That's grit and determination. Houston and many other cities and towns in Texas was turned into one big  swamp and these dedicated men and women were literally working in a swamp full of  danger--snakes, crocs,  tainted water,filthy conditions, etc.,but they forged ahead.

This swamp  is so different than the mucked up swamp in Washington, where the swamp rats on both sides of the aisle (Democrats and Republicans) are partisan and who fight and bicker among themselves, who refuse to work  as a team for America. The Washington swamp rats cannot make decisions to better  the country. They cannot or  will not come together.

Contrast that swamp with the one our heroic Texans and citizens from other parts of the country were waist deep in.  I would like you readers to take note that all of these first responders, the Cajun navy, who came to  Texas with  their flat boats, the  men and women that came to Texas with their monster trucks to roll through the flood waters, saving lives---they all worked in conjunction with the National Guard, the military and law enforcement officers.  One big team.

Folks, when these people extended their hand, their arm,  or slid down a rope from a helicopter to reach out for someone, they did not care if the person was Black, White, Brown,Asian or American Indian. All of these wonderful people that came to the aid of others in the state of Texas reached out to help. They didn't ask anyone before grabbing them up and pulling the person into a boat if they were a Republican or Democrat, or if the person was a Christian, Jew or Muslim, or what language they spoke.

The Texans themselves are bigger than life and that goes for the Governor on down. Even before other rescue people traveled to Texas, the Texans themselves were performing heroic acts toward one another. Most of those Texans who were exposing themselves to dangers were  putting their lives at risk to save other people that were made from a kaleidoscope of many colors, from all races, religions, and sexes.  It looked to me as though these tough, rough, determined Texans were the hard working middle-class individuals that are  generally forgotten by the lawmakers in Washington. Yet, without hesitation, they worked as a team giving and sharing of what they had with strangers. The swamp rats in Washington should take a page out of the playbook of these outstanding men and women that came together in Texas this past week. -And, that's my opinion.Make your own decisions. You decide.

PRESIDENT TRUMP SHOULD  NIX PLAN TO SELL AMERICAN TECH COMPANY TO CHINESE GOVERNMENT.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

President Trump should not allow Oregon's largest tech company, Lattice Semiconductor Corporation to sell  to CHINA. The company wants to sell its firm to China for  $1.3 BILLION dollars.

Generally the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States has a say in such matters.
The purchasers, China-backed  Canyon Bridge Capital is funded in a large part by the Chinese Central government.

Lattice Semiconductors Corp., and representatives for the China buyers have been trying to convince the  Committee of Foreign Investment in the United States to okay the deal for the past eight or nine months. However there are National Security officials that  have objections  to the sale and it is believed that the Committee of Foreign Investment of the United States have indicated that they believe the sale would be a threat to national security. I agree with that assessment- -and, rightly so. I say prohibit the deal. Why?  Because in reality, I do  not believe China is a friend to the United States.

China spends billions of dollars buying up companies in the U.S. that are in the areas of high tech, defense, intelligence, etc., and then they use the U.S. know-how, intellect and systems to enhance their government military programs.

I suggest that there is a method to China's  madness. It is easier for them to buy the companies in the U.S. and covert the tech information to their use instead of using spies and Chinese Nationals to gather  the information covertly.

I further suggest the U.S. should cease selling good American know-how to China. I predict that if the U.S. allows  American companies  to continue to sell and provide sensitive information and technology to China, it will be  turned against us in future.

President Trump has  approximately fifteen (15) days to review the deal and make a decision. I would hope and suggest that president Trump nixes the deal and forbids  the Oregon tech company from being sold to China. This is America and we should not allow tech companies to provide American ingenuity, equipment, information, data, etc.,  to a foreign  power. It doesn't take a third-grader to know that such moves present a direct threat to  America's national security. What the devil is the matter with these people's thinking? - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions, You decide.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: STICK TO YOUR PROMISES.  TERMINATE DACA. WE DO NOT NEED 800 THOUSAND PLUS 200 THOUSAND MORE (ONE MILLION)  ILLEGAL ALIENS  RECEIVING AMNESTY.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Well, it's crunch time. President Trump has to make an important decision about rescinding  the DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) immigration program that was put into effect by Obama.  I should note that the courts said Obama did not have the right or power to enact this program. President Trump's white house staff said he would render his decision this Tuesday as to whether he would terminate the program.

Remember throughout the campaign  candidate Trump made promises and said over and over again that he would terminate the program once he got into office. That  issue was a big selling point in his campaign rally's.  Now that he is in the oval office the millions of people like me, who voted for him and his policies are expecting him to live up to his promises and his word. I believe  he should wipe DACA off the books and not allow the "Dreamers" to get a free pass into the United States.

There are currently  a whopping 800 THOUSAND "illegal aliens" in this program and if the president allows the illegal immigrants in the program to stay in America it  would be nothing more than an "AMNESTY" program for 800.000 people. And since president Trump  went onto the oval office 200 THOUSAND more illegal aliens applied for the program.  The figure now stands at ONE MILLION illegal immigrants wanting a free pass to citizenship--WOW! It doesn't end there either. Some think tanks and firms familiar with the program  believe there are thousands more illegal immigrants standing by to enter the program.

Obama really did a number on  America. He didn't stop with the DACA program centered on the minor children brought into the United States. Barack Obama tried vigorously to expand the DACA program into what he called, DAPA (Deferred Action for American Parents), which would provide legal status for  more than  FIVE MILLION illegal immigrants who are related to the DACA recipients. Luckily, the Attorney General prevailed in federal courts and a 4-4 U.S. Supreme Court decision upheld their complaint. While in office, president Obama tried to take an end run around the law and allow MILLIONS of illegal aliens to come to America. DACA wasn't enough for him and the Democratic party. He wanted to  use the DAPA program to squeeze MILLIONS more illegal aliens  into the country. He might  as well  have  been  a part, or a member of  an illegal smuggling ring working to flood America with illegal aliens.

While president Trump is mulling over his choices, a radical group of Republicans in  his own party is pressuring him to allow these illegals to stay in the U.S. For example, Senator Hatch told the media that the president should let the  illegals stay. The  House Speaker, Paul Ryan went  before the media and said president Trump should allow the illegals to stay. Other Republicans such Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham and  other entrenched old school lawmakers who are part of the  swamp in Washington are chiming in to say the president should legitimize these illegals. What a joke.

People, the president said what he was going to do on the campaign trail, which was,  eliminate the DACA program on "day one" in office.  When he didn't follow through he disappointed millions of voters who supported and believed him. He gave in to Washington establishment.  But at this moment in time he has a second chance to deliver on his promise. I really hope he does.

The Republicans  who were running for office and those already in Washington knew what he promised his voters. They tied their coattails to president Trump and said they would support his polices but once Trump became president Trump-- that was not to be. People in his own party DO NOT want Washington to change.They fight him tooth and nail at every turn. What these swamp rats should do is tell him that they have his back--tell him to proceed with his promises and policies that got him elected.

For those of you that haven't noticed these Republican swamp rats who have been swimming in the Washington muck term after term are isolating  the president from his original cadre of people he had around him. One by one, his confidants are let go and ousted from his inner circle.

I submit, people like General Kelly, the presidents now Chief of Staff is swayed by the old school politicians in Congress and they have his ear. I fear the swamp rats like McConnell, Ryan, Graham and others are putting pressure on Kelly to do their bidding rather than carry out the presidents agenda.

The president has to know that McConnell, Ryan, McCain, Flake, and Graham does not agree with his way of doing things. They clearly disagree with the presidents policies. They snipe and swipe around the edges of president Trumps policies and have persuaded him to back off on various matters.  He has done that a few times already, but should stop. These particular lawmakers have been part of the Washington establishment for years, and years, and they truly believe they know better than the president and resist his efforts to reform Washington.

Senators Flake and McCain from Arizona; Susan Collins from Maine; Murkowski, from Alaska, and Heller, from Nevada are all spoilers embedded in the Republican party to disrupt, obstruct, and discredit president Trump. The people mentioned here are not fans of president Trump. They are not there to help him. They did not want him to be president from the get-go.They appear to me to be a bunch of back-biters and go behind his back to get their own agenda carried out. They are succeeding too: Just look what they did so far: They screwed up the health plan, they talk down the  border wall at every opportunity and now they go in front of the media before president Trump makes his decision on the Dreamer's DACA immigration program. I say the only reason for these swamp rats colluded media push days before the presidents decision is designed to  have the president go their way.

I would suggest to president Trump that he not veer from his policies and agenda. END the DACA program--PERIOD! Make these swamp creatures live with his agenda. He should say--It's done, now live with it. Get on board with my policies and agenda.

I  would submit that if president Trump does not insist that these radical Republicans fall in line and adhere to his plans for America, each concession he gives in on  to the Washington establishment with drag him into the swamp, along with them. And that is what they want.

Personally, I voted for president Trump because of his grit and determination to change Washington and it's way of doing things. I believed what he said and what issues he campaigned on. When others told me that I was some sort of a nut case because I voted for the president, I responded: " If he does what he says he will do, I think  America and the world will be a better place. But if he turns out to be just another politician that promises something and then reneges, I will, be the first to vote him out of office on his reelection." I feel there are millions of other voters who voted for  president Trump who share my  views. We all are waiting for him to deliver on his promises.

I want to see the border wall;tax reform; DACA terminated; immigration reform, etc. I will be very disappointed if president Trump buckles under to the pressures of the swamp rats playing  in the Washington swamp. He should ignore all of the lobbyists and special interest groups and  their wishes and demands. Instead, he should keep all of the bills simple and clean cut and insist his congress swamp rats do his bidding. - And,  that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

ANARCHIST'S RIOT AND POLICE BACK DOWN FROM THESE PUNKS AND THUGS. WHERE IS LAW AND ORDER WHEN YOU NEED IT?

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS- Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Violence erupts  again during a very peaceful anti-hate rally at Berkeley. Not in the  too distant past these same  "anarchists" threw rocks and bottles, used fists and clubs against persons who they didn't agree with and/or think like they did. This mob of marauders is called "Antifa." They carry clubs, torches, shields, dress in black clothes  and they cover their faces so as not to be recognized.

The more that 100  Black-clad punks and thugs wearing hoods, carrying shields emblazoned with words "no-hate" and waving a flag identifying themselves as anarchists stormed into a peaceful rally at Berkeley and attacked people. What did the Berkeley police do? NOTHING! Berkeley police chief Andrew Greenwood said he made a strategic  decision to allow the anarchists to enter so that he could avoid more violence. WOW! What a cop out. There were thousands of people in the park peacefully protesting and chief Greenwood willingly and knowingly let the  attackers to  go forward with their plan of violet destruction. And this guy is chief of the department?

He went on to say: " There  is no need for a confrontation over a grass patch." What a dopey, irresponsible response.  I submit--there is a need for confrontation when you see people assaulting each other or destroying property. He and his department officers just stood by like a bunch of statues and watched the assaults and violence play out in front of their eyes --not lifting a finger to "PROTECT AND SERVE."

I would say a  large part of the blame can be shared by Berkeley  Mayor Jesse Arreguin because it appears the entire city policy is to condone  violence and hate with an attempt to squelch speech that  the lawmakers in Berkeley doesn't agree with. That's sad.

Sid Heal, president of the California Association of Tactical Officers, said,  it's "always a tough call" for officers to determine how to react when they respond to a crowd on the verge of a riot." YIKES! That's another cop, copping out. Here are some things that should be done:

1. These rally's/marches need and/or require a permit, so-- Set up barricades to separate the two different groups before the rally begins.

2. Prior to the rally/march police officials should advise both sides that violence and assaults of any kind will not be tolerated. State a "zero" tolerance policy to violence of any kind..

3.Have a sufficient number of officers on the ready, on site, to quell any violence  from the beginning.
 As soon as  the first fist is thrown, assault  committed-- arrest the person immediately, as well as each and every person who commits  violence and/or property damage. I don't care if it's one person or one hundred people.  If they commit at violence and/or damage to property during the rally/march--arrest them all.

4. Lay down rules for the demonstrators and/or protesters. No one can wear masks or cover their faces to the point where the person cannot be identified; no shields, torches, clubs or anything that can be construed as a weapon  is allowed in the area of the protest and counter-protest.

Just following some of the above suggestions I would submit that  the chance for violence  or property damage  will be reduced to a large degree.

What frustrates me is when people who are sworn to protect and serve, and paid big, big bucks and  provided lucrative and large pensions to do a job, fail to  do the job. For example, Heal said he helped the University of California, Berkeley . prepare for any unrest ahead of an appearance by author Ann Coulter in April . Wow! A lot of good it did. Instead of  arresting the  troublemakers, those anarchist's, who set fires, broke windows, and committed numerous acts of violence and property damage, the police officers stood by, scratched their heads and butts , while crimes were being committed. And what does Heal say? Get this--"I wouldn't fight over a piece of land that has no value." Can you believe that? Folks, with attitudes like this we have no LAW --and without the law we have no ORDER.

 It's disappointing to see police officers who are trained to use  specific tactics in situations as crowd control, riots, etc.,, who are geared up with equipment that can counter  most any situation but are afraid of bunch of punks and thugs dressed only in black clothing, wearing tennis shoes/sneakers, a scarf or mask to cover their cowardly face and who can' fight worth a damn (videos show them punching and flailing around like a bunch of cats in a sack.) If the police officers would take action and confront these imbeciles , it would be no contest--law and order would win every time up against the wimpy punks.

It's looks as though it has come to the point where the police officers are ordered to stand down by their superiors, or by their mayor and political leaders. I have always had great respect for law enforcement, especially the line officers. out on the streets each and every day.I support  law enforcement with all my being. However, there are times the officers themselves choose not to take action because they are afraid for themselves. They retreat from the situation. That's when law and order runs amok. Imagine if our military  service men and women took the same  crappy attitude and said:  " I wouldn't fight  over a piece of land that has no value." I ask you --where would America be today? -- And, that's my opinion. Make your own decision. You decide.

THE MAYOR AND CHIEF OF POLICE OF HOUSTON DROPPED THE BALL BEFORE  HURRICANE HARVEY HIT.

THE  KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

There are two people involved in the Harvey disaster that should be faulted --BIG TIME.

The first bubblehead is Houston Police Chief, Art Acevedo.  He, like most people in the United States knew the hurricane was on its way at least NINETY-TWO (92) hours before it hit landfall, in Houston. Every weather person in the media was covering the oncoming terror for days. You couldn't miss it.The hurricane was being tracked on a daily basis. While other cities  in Texas were ordering mandatory evacuation of its citizens Acevedo  made the decision not to order a mandatory evacuation He  pooped around and let residents stay in their houses. Result-- shortly after the hurricane hit, people began to die. Then he went on television and  made excuses why he did not think people of Houston was not told to evacuate. What a dumb move on his part. The second bubblehead is Mayor Turner, of Houston. He failed to issue a mandatory evacuation order.  Only after thousands of  rescues, and many deaths did he "recommended" people evacuate the city.  And this was only  after he reluctantly took a call from the  Governor of the state of Texas.  I guess pressure got to the mayor because  it had been reported widely that he  had been refusing to accept any calls from the Governor. But after the  two talked the wimpy mayor (who seemed to play politics because he is a democrat), and the  Governor, a Republican,  decided to  advise evacuation.  These two men, the police chief and the mayor of Houston appear to be a pair of Johnny-Come-Late morons,

And to top it off, the mayor tried to rationalize his refusal to  order a mandatory evacuation by saying:  " A mass evacuation of people by car was a greater risk than enduring the storm." He went o to say: "Both the county judge and I sat down together and decided that we were not in direct path of the storm, of the hurricane, and the safest thing to do was for people to stay put, make the necessary preparations.  I have no doubt that the decision we made was the right decision." Really? What a jerk.

He went on to state: Can you imagine if millions of people had left the city of Houston and then tried to come back in right now? What is it with this "fail to act" guy?

Just for starters, here is some things he could have done DAYS before the hurricane hit land. There was  sufficient time to prepare:

1. Days before the hurricane hit landfall the mayor could have went before the cameras and told the people of Houston that he was going to order a "mandatory evacuation" of the  city. Telling the residents that they had a few days to depart, and that they must leave the city. The people could have left the city by car, plane, train, etc. ---days before the hurricane touched ground.

2. He could have  told the  people of Houston how serious and  damning the oncoming hurricane was expected to be ( a category 5). The information was right there in front of his eyes. Every weather report predicted the severity of the hurricane.

3. He could have lined up (well in advance)  a fleet of buses to evacuate  people of Houston. He could have allowed for enough transportation of  the elderly, and those people who could not drive vehicles; he could have prepared to evacuate and transport the disabled; the sick, the nursing home residents and patients from hospitals. The mayor could have requested that the Governor allow the National Guard help and assist in the cities evacuation.

4. The mayor could have told the residents  of Houston that the mandatory evacuation order would stay in effect until such time he would go before the cameras and  advise the people they could return to the city. That act alone would prevent any resident from trying to return to the city before it was safe to do so. Once  the proper Federal, State, and local government officials cleared the  way for return--people could come back.

5. The mayors lame excuse about people coming back early could have been prevented by the mandatory evacuation and prohibition of  returning until he and other state officials gave permission. Fact is, if  some of these steps would have been put into effect by the mayor it would have  been an orderly evacuation of the millions of people in Houston.

 I submit people could have been out of Houston days before the hurricane hit. Lives could have been saved. But the bungling of the mayor and chief of police and a county judge caused much of the problems in Houston. It was only  "after the fact" that  evacuations were started. And now the mayor and chief of police want to say they did everything they could and  are working  in unison with the rescuers. What a joke. - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

DEATH PENALTY INMATES SHOULD BE EXECUTED IN A TIMELY MANNER. JUSTICE SHOULD BE SERVED.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Where's the justice?  Serial   killers and many murderers are put on trial and found guilty by a jury of their peers and sentenced to death. But - - these serial killers, even mass murderers sit on death row for  twenty (20) years or more before their sentence is  carried out. The jury had spoken but the judges and attorneys fail to follow through.

For example-lets take Joseph Paul Franklin, a white supremacist who targeted Jews and blacks in a cross country killing spree. Beginning in 1977 through 1980 he wreaked havoc on innocent people. Franklin, 63 killed Gerald Gordon in a sniper shooting at a suburban  St. Louis, MO synagogue in 1977. He went on to kill six people in a cafe' and wounded 16 others. and then using a bomb killed five (5) shoppers and wounded still fifteen (15) more.In 2013, this guy finally got the death penalty. But wait! It was no thanks to a lackluster judge who halted the execution crying about the method of execution. The judge said it would be a hardship on this scum bag. Luckily, some clearer minds prevailed and Franklin was put to death Wednesday, Missouri's first execution in nearly three years. So - -we have been feeding and taking care of this mass murderer for about THIRTY-THREE (33) YEARS. WOW!

Then there is the case that happened in my old stomping grounds of Los Angeles, California where Dough Clark and Carol M. Bundy ravaged the countryside. They were known as the "Sunset Strip Killers." They took seven victims that we know about. It started in June 1980, that is when the first body was found in a brush area near the Forest Lawn embankment.

Clark would troll Sunset Boulvard and pick up prostitutes.He would have them give him oral sex and at the time they were performing the sex act on him he would shoot them in the head.  He used a 25 caliber pistol  and copper jacket bullets as his choice of weapon.Clark's sidekick Carol Bundy joined in the preverse acts of sex, torture and mutilation with a vengeance. She was as brutal as he was. Often she would play the loving wife in order to lure the victims into the car.

On one occasion the two murders cut of the head of one of the  prostitutes, took it home and put it in a freezer. Carol would take the head from the freezer and make the face up and do its hair. Doug Clark would take the severed head into the bathroom and have sex with it.

Carol also killed a prior lover of hers and also severed his head and brought it home to Clark to show him that her old lover was out of the picture and that he, Doug,  was the only man for her.

In 1983, Clark was convicted and sentenced to death. Carol Bundy was sentenced to life only because she testified against Clark. Clark acted as his own attorney. He relished the idea that he had a stage to show off his imagined talents in the courtroom. During the trial Clark spew vulgar, foul words at the judge and threw things at the prosecutor (I think it was just for show to get more attention). He turned the entire trial into a circus. But in the end he received  the death penalty.

When Carol Bundy was asked how she felt about decapitating the heads of her victims she told a reporter interviewing her that she enjoyed it and enjoyed killing. She also made the comment , "it was really a bitch to try to get makeup on a frozen head." She said the makeup kept smearing.
Carol Bundy died in  prison on December 9, 2003, at the age of 61 from heart failure. But her partner in crime, Doug Clark, is still sitting on death row., eating  regular meals, getting free medical care and sleeping soundly every night at  our taxpayer expense.

During  an interview Clark told authorities that he killed at least FIFTY people starting at the age of 17-years old. He  also said that he wanted to kill at least  ONE HUNDRED people before he died.  Again, to remind all of you. This is our crazy, dysfunctional justice system at work - -THIRTY YEARS has come and gone since he was sentenced to death and this dirt bag is still living and breathing. Go figure!

Another case worth mentioning is Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel, the 53-year-old nephew of Robrert F. Kennedy's widow, Ethel. This guy was convicted of the 1975 murder of neighbor Martha Moxley, who was a teenager. She was  bludgeoned to death, allegedly  with a golf club. But it appears because of his political influence, some milk toast, sympathy crying judge decided to let him out of prison saying he deserves a new trial. He  spent 11 years behind bars on a sentence of 20 years in prison. The jury convicted this scuzz of murder but for reasons only known to the judge he lets this man skate. However, to the credit of the prosecutors --they are going to appeal the decision of  the judge. I believe the long running legal battle is far from over.

Another rapist, killer , Ronald Phillips,43 was condemned to die way back in 1993, for the brutal rape and murder of his girlfriend's 3-year-old daughter, Sheila Marie  Evans. But he sat on Ohio's death row enjoying life (eating, sleeping, bathing, tv., and other fringe benefits),on our taxpayers dime until finally, after 24 years he was put to death.  It was Ohio's first execution since 2014. Then in 2014, an inmate was put to death at the time and  it took him about 26 minutes to die. Witnesses said he snorted and gasped during the procedure. Because of that, Governor John Kasich reacted by putting a hold on all executions. What?  The Gov felt sorry for this murderer because he gasped and snorted during his execution. Are you kidding me? Put yourself in the place of that little 3-year-old girl as she was being raped and mauled and murdered by this  monster. Did she gasp, snort, cry? Probably.  You have to know this little angel went through hell as Phillips was penetrating her.  If the murderer feels  a little discomfort while being executed --HOORAY! That's the least that can happen to them. I consider it just a small "payback" for the torture and pain they put their victims through. Something the  courts, judges and attorney seem to forget about, or ignore.

Folks, I believe our justice system is flawed to a large degree.   Our judicial system claims  that a person is entitled to a speedy trial. Really? That's clearly is not true in  the millions and millions of cases that go before the courts, especially in capital crimes such as murder. There have been reports of cases that languish in the court system for 4, 5, 6, years, even more , following the arrest of the suspect before the case even comes up for trial. That shouldn't be - - but the games the attorneys, prosecutors and the judges play are responsible for the lack of  speedy trials. The defense attorneys attempt to delay, delay, and delay and  many judges go right along with these tactics. The traumatized families of the victims who yearn for speedy trials and justice are forgotten in the mix. And as time goes on and the delays continue, witnesses die, evidence is lost or misplaced and memories fade (just what the defense attorneys want to happen) and the judges care less and allow  the system to falter and break down.

Personally, I would like to see speedy justice work like it should. First, a speedy trial. Once the suspect is arrested I say bring the idiot suspect(s) to trial promptly. I think  a six month time period would be fair. Once the trail is completed and the jury makes their determination the sentence should be carried out. If the good men and women on the juries say that the suspect(s) is to be sentenced to death then he or she should be put to death (again, in a short period of time) following their conviction.

Appeals? Certainly. The suspect has a right to appeal and those appeals should be heard BUT not over a TWENTY or THIRTY YEAR period. I would prefer to see an appeal process that is stream-lined. An appeals process no more than ONE YEAR would be fair.  I believe that is long enough for the killers attorneys to make their case to an appeals court. And then - - after the year has expired for the appeals process, the killers should be put down, like a dog is put down in a kennel. That to me is, swift, speedy, justice.

I maintain that if these murderers made the decision to kill another person they should know that there will be  swift and final consequences for their depraved act(s). If they knew they would pay with their own life within a year of being sentenced to death  - -these cowards would think twice before they decided to commit the  ultimate crime --taking another persons life. I predict that if a killer knows that he or she will be  put to death within a year after being sentenced to death, the murder rates in this country would drop drastically.However, right now, the murderers have nothing to lose (not even their own life.) They know that they can sit on death row (no matter how heinous the crime) and  not be put to death. They actually snub their nose at the victims families knowing that the chances of them being put to death for decades are practically "zero."

There are some countries that carry out death sentences very quickly. There have been cases in China where the killers were taken from the courtroom to the execution chamber and/or put in front of a firing squad or even shot in the back of the head. The death sentence was  carried out that same day of the sentencing. There have been reports of other countries carrying out the death sentence within days of the sentence being pronounced. There have also been instances where some countries kill the murderer in the same way that he or she killed their victim - - talk about carrying out justice - -now, that's justice.  I would say some of these other countries have no qualms about a speedy trial and quick justice. If we had more of that here in the United States I submit we clearly would have less murders occurring. - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

BRITNEY SPEARS: WHO PRETENDS TO SING GETS $30 MIL DEAL. WOW! 

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Britney Spears just started her two year stint here in Las Vegas a couple nights ago. Her show entitled "A Piece of Me", at Planet Hollywood,  was just another make believe extravaganza . It was put together to look like a cheap Cirque show which  already permeates the Las Vegas strip.

Why Caesars Entertainment would pay a make believe singer/entertainer over $30  million dollars is beyond me. Spears was a teeny bopper years ago. That was great. She was a young, attractive girl at the time that appealed to the tween crowd - -but now she in her 30's and still trying to emulate that teeny-weeney image. I think Spears had her moment in the sun (way back when), but now? For a person who lip-syncs her songs and has done so throughout her career I'm of the opinion that she doesn't have any real talent to offer an adult  audience.

Who would pay $69.00 for the cheapest seat in the house to watch a 30's something lady prance and strut the stage and PRETEND to sing the songs? As I said before, you can't complain about the talent in the show because Spears has none. Her show is nothing but a lot of glitz and glam. It lacks entertainment and is boring and redundant as she goes through her songs that she has been faking  all through her life.

Rumor also it that Spears had her abdomen sprayed painted to enhance her physique for this gig. Wow! Although, I have to say there is one thing I cannot fault Spear's for. That being the fact that she is smart enough to grab the $30 million since Caesars  was apparently dumb enough to shell out all that moola for an act that doesn't sing (for real). Yep, that's big bucks to pay someone to go through the motions of pretending to be a singer - -can you imagine? --And, that's  my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

THE MIDEAST CONFLICT SHOULD HAVE A SOLUTION-IT'S  LONG OVERDUE.

THE KUHNS REPORT

Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

The 22nd. day of fighting between Israel and Gaza. The bloodiest day so far with 128 Palestinians dead.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu  said this will be a prolonged war. Israel is using tanks, airplanes, sophisticated weapons  and all of the military might that te United States gave them. In fact, in congress today, the   lawmakers are passing a  bill giving Israel BILLIONS of dollars to improve the "iron dome" that we gave them years ago. It's not enough that the iron dome is stopping the majority of rockets  fired into Israel. Now we, the good ol' USA is going to give Israel BILLIONS more to improve on a system that has been working. I guess it's not enough to have Israel slaughter the Palestinians by the thousands. Apparently, congress in their fervor for Israel want the Palestinian's wiped out in larger numbers.

There have been proven reports that Israel has already lied about bombing a school and hospital. It appears they faked a video to try to pace the blame on Hamas. Israel states that Hamas has rockets fixed in the hospitals and schools and that is the reason they bomb these places. Really? Can we trust Netanyahu's  words?

It appears Netanyahu really wants to destroy all of the building and homes that he can. It looks as though he wants to kill as many Palestinian men, women and children as he can under the guise of "self-defense." The words for that is "the fog of war". It's an excuse to do as much destruction as one can to the other side.

Currently the Israeli's made sure that the people living in Gaza has no electricity or water. This is a world fiasco and shame on the world for letting Israel get away with this shameful massacre.

Folks, Israel is murdering the Palestinians like they were  fish in a barrel. Example: Israel has the planes, the tanks,the heavy weapons and the support of the USA intelligence community. The poor Palestinians fight the Israeli's with rocks and sticks.

I ask you? What would you do if another nation invaded your state (i.e.) New York, Florida, California --(pick any state) with military might and then occupied that state for decades telling you you can't travel, you can't move around in certain areas? What if you needed the occupiers permission to move about to shop, visit, etc.? I know what you would do --you would fight the occupiers with every breath in your body. No person wants trampled on and told  when and where they can walk and socialize. People, that is what Israel has done for years and years. They, with their military might force the Palestinians to live a miserable life. The Palestinians have to adhere to the forceful orders of Israel or pay the consequences.  That's no way to live.

The sad part of all of this Mideast situation is that the United States has chosen sides and partnered up with Israel. We give them most everything they want and ask for. That's wrong!

What the USA should be is an honest broker. Equality and parity  is important when dealing with two  different factions. I would think that if we gave Israel an iron dome we should have given  the Palestinians an iron dome. If we gave Israel 10 fighter jets, we should give the same to  the Palestinians. The same goes for weapons-- whatever we give Israel we should also give the Palestinians.  Everybody appreciates an even playing field, especially in the Mideast region.

There is never going to be peace  due to the fact that Israel always finds an excuse to sabotage any upcoming peace talks. This same posture has been ongoing for decades. I would suggest that the only way to have peace in the region is to have the rest of the world insist on it. Call together the U.N. and other world powers -- then advise BOTH sides that they will have to live with the borders and rules that the world lays out for them.

Hell, we had no problem with going into Bosnia and separating that country into different factions; we had no problem with going into Iraq and separating the factions, the same in Afghanistan.  What about Korea and Vietnam  Nam. They were divided up by world powers.  So, why do we continually allow Israel to occupy another people (for decades) and dictate their comings and goings?  We can use the UN and world troops to enforce the peace regarding Israel and the Palestinians. And we should do it. - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

CONSTRUCTION AND HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY USE ILLEGAL ALIENS AS SLAVE LABOR.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

President Trump's 'Legal" immigration plan, as well as his dealing with the "illegal alien problem is getting  static from the U.S, Chamber of Commerce, and you guessed it,  big business and  the construction and hospitality industry.

A few nights ago a television news program interviewed a few home builders and others from the construction industry. The companies were located  in the state of Texas, Wow! These guys sniveled and cried the blues that they can't get workers to build their homes. They said the construction industry will have to cut back on the number of homes they're building across the country. One contractor claimed that instead of  having eight men building a house, they now have to use four men.

These dingbats are complaining that they cannot hire enough "illegal aliens" to build the house., so they oppose the presidents immigration policies.

Folks, more "illegal aliens" call Texas home outside of California. Texas has the second largest "illegal alien" population --California is in first place.

And, because the construction and hospitality  industry honcho's refuse to pay American citizens, both Hispanic and Caucasian a fair wage, they cry in their beer about not being able to get enough "illegal" aliens to work on the cheap. What's the matter with this picture people?

I am old enough to remember the days when in  the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, when  the construction people that built homes, like  the roofers, the plumbers, the electricians, framers, painters, drywall, carpet layers were Caucasian and blacks. They were being paid a decent wage and  did a fantastic job for the construction industry. It was not only the construction industry --most landscape and lawn service people were both Caucasian and black. True, there were some Latinos, but they were the minority on the job. The Latino population that was working in the construction industry, like the agriculture industry were here on a monitored "guest worker" program. And, when the job or their guest visa came to an end after a specific time, they returned home to Mexico.

But since 1986, once president Ronald Reagan and  the dimwits in congress gave "amnesty" to  approximately THREE MILLION "illegal aliens" living in the United States, everything came apart. We Americans were told that the amnesty was a one time thing, and both president Reagan and congress promised a secure border which would prevent any further illegal aliens from entering the United States. But, as usual,the politicians lied  to us, and congress let the immigration policy fall by the wayside.

The construction and the hospitality industry saw the "illegal alien" work pool as a gold mine for them. They could let the  whites and blacks go from the jobs, and hire the illegal, and pay them peanuts for their sweat and labor. Since the 1986 amnesty, the congress, working  with big business, allowed them to hire  "illegal aliens" for slave wages, closing an eye to the illegal practice.

I would suggest the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, in collusion with the construction and hospitality industry, is no better than the "plantation  slave owners" of the old  south  who used Black's for"slave labor" to build everything from plantations to the White House. The only difference now is -- Blacks have been replaced with "Latino illegal aliens."

My  idea. The sniveling, griping construction industry, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and big business and corporations should  pay sufficient wages to the American citizens who were doing these jobs  long  before the amnesty program went into effect.

People, it's these big industries that have been fighting tooth and nail to subvert the immigration policies so they can continue to use  slave labor. The irony of this situation is that  the construction and hospitality industry has been using slave labor for so long, they actually expect their employees to be Latinos. And they use the excuse, saying no one else can do the job. That's crazy thinking.

I support the idea of  all employers hiring "legal"citizens of the country, whether they are White, Black, Asian  or Latino. I  believe we have enough citizens in this country to do the  construction and hospitality work needed to run America.  The  government should step up and pass legislation and laws that each and every employer in the nation "must" use the E-Verify system to insure that each  and every employee is a "legal" citizen.

For those job seekers-- "non-citizens," from Mexico, and elsewhere, who say they will work in agriculture, and pick crops, I suggest we return to the efficient "guest worker" program the U.S. had in effect decades ago.  Those worker;s used to come to the U.S. as a "guest worker"and was monitored while here. When the season or contract was finished, they were accounted for by their employers and returned to their country of origin, until the next season. That's how it should be folks. America used to be so great. What the devil happened?  I guess greedy big business took hold.. --Make your own decisions. You decide.

STOP "ALL" OF EGYPT'S FOREIGN AID. IGNORE THEIR THREATS.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

Hooray! The Unites States is planning to cut off  approximately THREE HUNDRED MILLION dollars in military and  economic aid to Egypt. It's about time. I  hope the administration  goes through with the plan.  A statement put out by the Egyptian Foreign Minister said Cairo regretted the U.S. decision, calling it a"misjudgment of the nature of the strategic relations that have bound the two countries for decades." The statement went on to say,  "the move reflects a lack of careful understanding of the importance of supporting the stability and of Egypt. What a crock!

The U.S. has been paying this country $13 billion dollars in aid each and every year. Now Egypt is upset because the administration  is going to cut THREE HUNDRED MILLION from that whopping gravy train.

Egypt is bent out of shape and warned us that there may be "negative consequences" for the realization of common U.S-Egyptian interests, which they failed to expand on.

Supposedly the  money stream is being cut off because the U.S. is unhappy with the human rights situation in Egypt. The U.S. demands that Egypt improve its human rights.

Egypt claims to be an important regional partner for the United States because of its control of the Suez Canal, as well as its border to Israel.Really?  Their human rights policies does not  conform to our standards and they are a corrupt nation. They have been continuing to extort the  $3 billion dollars a year from us U.S. taxpayers,asking us to stabilize and support their government. What a joke.

Why should the U.S. stabilize and support  Egypt and their people? We have  our own citizens and country to support and stabilize. Can you imagine how that $13 billion dollars could be used here at home?

What the U.S should do is cut off "all" $13 billion dollars that we  are sending to Egypt. Fact is, there are other countries around the world that we are  paying annual foreign aid to  which amounts to much more that the 13 billion Egypt has been receiving.

Folks. these foreign countries take billions and billion of dollars from  us taxpayers each year. That shouldn't be. We American taxpayers are like a welfare office to these foreign countries. They want us to support them, feed and clothe their people, and pay money under the table in bribes to corrupt politicians. These foreign countries say they are our friends but that is only because we are paying them for their friendship. As long as we  send countries around the world large truckloads of money each year they are  our friends but when and if we cut back (like we did  to Egypt), they scream Holy Hell.

The United States should not be the worlds ATM machine. We shouldn't have to bribe countries to stay on friendly terms with us. For example, Egypt  warns that access to the Suez Canal could be a factor if we don't "pay up."

People, it should be enough for these other countries to know that the U.S. has their back if they are a friends with us. They should know that if they were ever attacked by another country we would be there to assist them, I suggest, that's where any help and aid should end. The United States taxpayers should not be required to support other nations and look out for their citizens.

I know each and every nation around the world has their own treasury. Each country should use their own money from that treasury and  use their countries resources to prop up, stabilize and support their own populations, their military and their government.. That is their job. Not America's.

The USA has a $20 TRILLION DOLLAR deficit. Our lame congress and lawmakers  cannot even get that under control. Yet, they continue to prop up these Banana Republics and  any other country around the world who say they want to be our friend. It comes easy for the lawmakers in congress to spend other people money. It's not theirs. But it is ours, the taxpayers.

I'm in the camp that would favor cutting all foreign aid and/or eliminate it completely. If we held back all foreign aid from these (give me a hand out) countries for just a few years our problem with the national debt ($20 trillion dollars), would be solved overnight. Where the hell is our governments priorities?

When it comes to financial matters, I am a believer of a person taking care of their own needs, FIRST. Then, if  there is money left over after paying all of the bills, consideration would be made to give money away to others. I am frustrated will congress,the lawmakers in Washington, and the lobbying firms representing the corrupt nations who make sleazy deals to prop up these foreign countries.

As far as countries like Egypt threatening to deny access to the Suez Canal, I would strongly let them know they are on their own  if they are very invaded and/or attacked. I would clearly let these countries know that cooperation goes both ways and it should not take extortion to  receive help.  I would think these welfare countries would  get the message.  Actually, I  believe that these countries who scream, cry, and snivel for our help should be paying us for our presence and military might -- without expecting to receive foreign and economic aid. The welfare foreign and economic gravy train has to stop.-- And, that's my opinion. Make your own decision. You decide.

VESTIBULAR NEURITIS AFFECTS QUITE A FEW PEOPLE.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

In response to an inquiry from S.W. from Pennsylvania about "vestibular neuritis", here  is  some information for you to review.

The vestibular system is part of the inner ear and the brain that picks up and translates your sensory information that regulate the body's balance and control and  controls eye movement. Neuritis  is a term for various diseases when a nerve or any group of nerves become inflamed. Thus, "vestibular neuritis."

The condition can effect either ear. When the inner ear becomes infected and inflamed you will experience (vertigo), which on a scale, can be mild, moderate or severe. If you experience a severe bout of vertigo you may experience a continual feeling of a spinning sensation. That in turn  will maker it difficult for you to stand and walk. You may also experience headaches, nausea and/or vomiting.

When a person has a healthy vestibular system, their brain from both the left and right sides of the body work in sync. But when the nerves or one side becomes inflamed and causes swelling the information that is transmitted  to your brain goes out of sync, and becomes a jumbled mess. The result is the brain is unable to match and sync up what both the left and right sides of your body are trying to say, and you will experience vertigo, either in mild, moderate, or severe episodes.

A persons balance will be affected, and they may also experience some difficulty with hearing and vision problems. The hearing problems might be tinnitus (ringing in the ears). They may also experience a lack of concentration.

I should note that most ear infections are a result of a viral infection. And a viral infection in the ear sometimes difficult to pin down as to how these infections are being transmitted throughout the body.

The good news is:  the viral infection generally runs its course within a few weeks. But if the nerves have been damaged, the dizziness may continue. There is no specific test for vestibular neuritis. However, an MRI could rule out conditions such as stroke, or a head injury.

I would suggest that if your dizziness continues, further testing may be necessary to hone in on the actual location of the problem. Your physician may also suggest a brief stint of steroids so as to reduce the inflammation.  - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

PORTSMOUTH, VA WANTS TO REPLACE A CONFEDERATE STATUE WITH ONE OF A RAPPER? COME ON!

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

There is a move on in Portsmouth, VA to take down a Confederate statue and replace it with the statue of Missy Elliot. For those that don't know Missy Elliot (aka) Missy Misdemeanor Elliot  --she is said to be a "rapper,  dancer, and record producer." My reports say  that the group wanting the Missy Misdemeanor Elliot statue has about 25,000 signatures so far. And the city administrators apparently are seriously thinking about the statue exchange.

The rational behind this move is that a spokesman for the  move said: "I wanna show we can honor the positivity  that's happening today in Portsmouth and I think no one better suits that than Missy Elliot."

Are you kidding me?  What's the world coming to?  A move to replace historical figures and monuments with statues of rappers and dancers? What's next folks?  Personally I think a statue of Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck would be better than a rapper. -- And, that's  my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

SHUT DOWN AFGHAN WAR-IT'S A MONEY PIT: USE THAT MONEY HERE AT HOME.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America,and how is the world treating you?

Tonight, August 21, 2017, president Trump  is supposed to give a speech regarding the  Afghanistan conflict. I will be anxious to see what the president has in plan for this corrupt, money hole of a country.

My view is that president Trump should pull the plug on this never, ending war. Why do I say that?

Before we, the USA, went into  Afghanistan the Russian government had their military fighting in that God forsaken country for  ELEVEN YEARS. Fact is, we were arming different war lords and Afghan fighters to combat the Russians. Afghanistan  wound up being Russia's graveyard.They finally pulled out and left the country to fend for itself. After the Russians left the Taliban took over and they had a strict policy of  making certain their  countryman did not grow, cultivate and sell opium, under penalty of death, Opium cultivation, use and sale, was strictly prohibited. And people in Afghanistan, under the rule of the Taliban did not get involved in opium.

Then thinks changed.  The United States  went into the country,  cleared out many of the Taliban, and guess what? Once the U.S arrived, the  drug and opium trade flourished. The sale and trafficking from the of the poppy fields grew by a staggering two-thousand (2000%) percent.  And now it is the major cash crop in the country for all of the Afghanistan government officials, the various war lords, and warring tribes to feed off of.. Poppy field cultivation and opium sales and trafficking is now one-half of the Afghan economy. Our troops are also protecting the drug crops for  the people of Afghanistan.  Our military also closes a blind eye to Afghanistan's worldwide drug trafficking.. That's wrong, but we continue to allow it to happen. I have always said that the poppy fields should be destroyed. It is an easy task but our feckless, spineless government officials will not take action. Result: That poison is killing our men and women and children here in  Americas every day.

I once said that if the U.S.  would overthrow the Taliban, we would be causing serious  "unintended consequences", and the revival of the poppy fields and drug trade and trafficking is a glaring example of those unintended consequences.  Various factions we are fighting against in Afghanistan are now using the tens of millions of dollars in profits from their illicit drug trade to supply their war with weapons while at the same time they are still using weapons we gave them against our military. That's another example of "unintended consequences."

I predicted years ago that if we didn't end the Afghan  fight once we captured or killed Bin Laden (which was  our  original and sole purpose of entering Afghan), we would  be involved in a quagmire for years, like the Russians were. Now sixteen-and-a half years later --- we are in that quagmire. It's a swamp of quicksand and we are sinking deeper and deeper each and every year into this hole.

I submit, it would have been so  simple to wrap up the Bin Laden operation once he was killed.That is what Americans were expecting---hunt down Bin Laden, capture or kill him, and come home. Mission Accomplished. If that occurred we wouldn't be in Afghan today.

But because of our military and congressional blunders, along with the lack of will to say we had accomplished what we went to Afghanistan for (capture or kill Bin Laden), then return home , we are where we are today/. When Bin Laden was killed we should have exited Afghanistan then and there.

Allowing the drug trade to occur is one of my major complaints. with the Afghanistan situation. But let me  explain even further why I think we should leave these ignorant. corrupt tribes, to fight it out among themselves.

People, we have been fighting this war for a whopping SIXTEEN AND A HALF years, and it is still going on,  It is the longest war in history,with no end in sight. Now Afghanistan is our graveyard. Since our Afghanistan  military action began we, the taxpayers here in America  have already spent at least  $800 BILLION dollars in appropriations alone. Wow!  If we figure in and include the monies paid out for such thing as veterans care, for those who fought in Afghanistan, we are looking at a figure which exceeds $1 TRILLION dollars.

Folks, could you imagine what that money could do for us here in the United States? Roads; schools; infrastructure; repairs on our shabby electric grid; funding the southern border wall; paying down our debt. I could go on and on as to how that obscene amount of money could be used here in the good ol' USA. And, it has been reported that  our government actually handed out tens of millions of dollars IN CASH, to  corrupt Afghan government officials and Afghan warring tribe leaders. Our country gave these millions away like it was monopoly money, but--it was our tax money.It's evident that our politicians and military love to spend other peoples money.

And let's  not forgot the human toll that this  senseless war has taken. From my last  report check it looks like we have lost at least 2,258 American troops. That's out blood and treasure that has been squandered. And for what? Let's not forget our allies who fought along of us. They lost at least 1000. There were also 3500 military contractors killed so far.

Now, lets talk civilian  losses. Since we have been fighting in this hellhole and suffering our own losses, there were TENS OF THOUSANDS of Afghan men, women and children sacrificed.

My suggestion to president Trump: Pull out of this money pit which  is not only taking our taxpayer money, but our young men and women's lives. It's sad that our military generals are pushing for additional troops.

I fear that president Trump will capitulate and sell out to the  General's. I remember candidate Trump telling us Americans that one of his first moves would be to get us out of Afghanistan. America believed  him. But now as president, the chances are he might buckle to the military machine and stay in this quagmire. I also remember when two previous presidents told us that they were going to draw down and leave Afghanistan? But they didn't do that. I hope the president thinks  hard and fast about staying in this war.

I disagree with the General's views.  Fact is, we  have been fighting a conventional war led by these same General's for close to two decades. They have used the same  conventional war plan, over and over again.  I feel that doing what these General's suggest to fight this war is based on old and tired war plans. Come on! Sixteen years of repeating the same ol', same ol' war plans is stupid, If president Trump heeds  the General's advice all he will be doing is continuing Obama's war plans.

Why do  these military leaders in Washington insist on continuing the same policies used by the last two presidents? The policy DOES NOT work. For example, the  military policy we have been using for the past sixteen and a half years is well known to the Taliban and ISIS. These bad guys  know exactly how the  General's and the military are going to react and respond. The enemy can predict most every move the military makes against them. If you saw the same person doing the same dance move for sixteen years it's obvious you would know what steps to take to match those steps.

I have said for years that we have been losing this war.  And now General Mattis recently came out and told  those in Washington, "We are not winning in Afghanistan right now."  This was has been open-ended for  sixteen, plus, years. And if our military honchos keep repeating  and using the same old conventional war plans, we will never succeed in Afghanistan. We could fight this war in Afghanistan for another SIXTEEN AND A HALF years and we would be no further along than we are now.  We clearly are not winning this war. Hell, at one point we had 100,000 U.S. troops  fighting in Afghanistan and we couldn't win it then. Now it looks as through these war hawks in the military and congress  want to possibly add 3000 to 5000 more troops  to the approximately 8400 we now have there. I think that is a bad, bad decision. That small amount of additional troops will not change the  situation. All it is doing is placing  three to five thousand more American lives in harms way.

Finally, our General's tell the president, congress and the American people that we need to add the troops so we can train the Afghan military to fight on their own, Are you kidding me? Folks, it doesn't take 16 plus years to train soldiers to fight.  I, like many other  men and women  here in the USA served in the military. I was a Marine and  we were trained within only a matter of weeks, a couple months.  From first day of boot camp, through about 16 weeks, we were made combat ready, and capable to fight in any war and/or conflict, in any  theater around the world.

I would say, that if the Afghan men and women really wanted to serve in their military and protect their own country from invaders they could have, and should have, been trained for  total action within  a matter of weeks,  Especially when they were being trained to fight by the best military force on the planet. Good old American  personnel.

I suspect that the Afghan people  DO NOT want to fight for their country. They want us to protect them and also fight their battles for them.  I do  not think the Afghan government and their officials want the gravy train to stop. Once this corrupt, backward country and their officials saw the U.S. step up and offer help, they made the decision to play us for decades.

I know it doesn't take  16 years, plus, to get  a military force ready for combat. We should give their military  about 16 weeks to shape  their men and women into fighters. Not 16 years. Our military can train one of our men or women to be one  of our elite  SEALS in three, seven (7) week, phases. All three phases take only 21 weeks to have one of the best trained military people in the world.  So please, don't tell me a basic soldier cannot be molded into a fighting man or woman in much less time.

We should pull out every last American military person and let the Afghan military fight to protect their own country.They should act on their own.  We shouldn't have to continue to enable these people. I would think after sixteen years of  us Americans helping this corrupt, useless nation by training their military and rebuilding their country for  them, they should have enough smarts to organize their own government by now.

We Americans cannot stay in Afghanistan into perpetuity. I say we have no reason to be there and dumping about 50 BILLION dollars a year , or more, into this rat hole  is a waste. All of the money the USA is currently squandering on this "never, never. win war certainly can be put to better use, here in America. What is Afghanistan worth? Let the Afghan people fight their own battles,--then what ever faction survives and comes out on top, that is the government we deal with.  -- And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

THE MOVIE-KIDNAP: YOU ASKED,  HERE'S MY OPINION.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

On a suggestion from a few friends I was asked to see the movie; KIDNAP, starring Halle Berry,  and give my opinion. Okay  friends, here it is:

Watching Halle Berry's frantic and desperate attempt to put this movie back on life support failed miserably. First off, this film only had a sparse 82 minutes of running time. This film is way, way below Halle Berry's talents. Why she accepted such a dud is beyond me. I guess  the only reason she  took an acting part in this bomb is because she produced it,

Karla Dyson (Halle Berry) is a  stressed out waitress who witnesses her son, 6-year-old son, Frankie, being dragged into a car.So she hops into her minivan, and the chase is on.

Once the pursuit starts,  in the next 40 minutes or so of the movie, Berry, is praying, coming unglued, yelling, and talking to herself, She makes a crash derby look like a walk in the park compared to the number of wrecks she causes.

When she she sees the doped up, two meth heads threaten her son she  lets up on the gas for awhile but loses the car. Then she stops along her way asking people if they saw a man and a little boy. Wow! I mean who hasn't seen a man and a little boy at sometime or the other?

Berry's character (Karla) is clearly not that of a tough, out for blood, type of a person.

As to the movie being a thriller, or full of suspense---No Way. I found it really drab and boring.--I  would say if anyone is looking for a good night of entertainment, they are in for a  surprise.  I'd say, stay away, stay home and watch a good suspense or thriller  movie with a bowl of popcorn in  your lap.

If I had to rate this flopper-roo, on a scale of A to F. I'd give it a big fat E-.  That's my take  on this fiasco my  friends. -- And, that's my decision. Make your own decisions. You decide.

MEMO TO: LAWMAKERS, POLITICIANS-THE REMOVAL OF STATUES AND HISTORY  SHOULD BE UP FOR VOTE BY AMERICA'S  CITIZENS.

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

 Removing Confederate statues and monuments is mass hysteria in mob think. I would  suggest that these lawmakers in the cities and states who are willy-nilly making  decisions to take down  the Confederate symbols step back, take a deep breath, cool off, and use common sense.

The politicians and lawmakers attempting to appease different faction and groups by removing the historical statues made of metal, granite, and stone, are playing into  the hands of these groups. I would remind the state and county and community leaders that poll after poll taken recently, has  come to the same conclusion-- that being, more than sixty-two (62%) percent of the people in the United States "DO NOT" want the Confederate statutes and monuments removed.

If there is such a thing as lawmakers and politicians listening to the people  and doing the peoples bidding, then I would think that the quick on the draw, knee-jerk, reaction by the lawmakers should stop. It's obvious the majority of the people want the statutes and monuments to stay as they are, where they are.

I suggest that if the politicians, lawmakers, and community leaders across this country were serious and fair and truly wanted to to hear the people's voice in this matter, (which I believe deserves debate), they would  put the matter of Confederate statue and monument removal to votes. I say, let each city, county, and state vote as to if  the statues and monuments should be removed, or stay where they are. Folks, that would be the democratic way to do things.

We do not  need individual mayors, and governors, or any politician  or lawmaker making an arbitrary decision on their own, or in secret meeting with their city council to act like a thief in the night,under cover of darkness, remove  statues/monuments. All citizens should have a say. What are the lawmakers afraid of? Are they a bunch of wimpy, spineless jerks,  who doesn't trust the people to decide by way of a democratic vote? Let's put the matter on ballots. Let's really see what the citizens of America want to happen.

If the lawmakers and politicians across this country continue to act on their own and fail to listen to the majority of the people, this country is going to become nothing but a Banana Republic. We in America will be no better than the  dictator regimes that have purged monuments and statues from their societies. Fact is, some of these corrupt regimes that first removed  statutes and monuments then banned certain books and reading materials, (and had books set ablaze), in town squares. It didn't stop there. They erased photographs of specific persons from sight and mind. They then took control of the media  (television, newspapers, magazines, and radio).

Like president Trump has said. "Where does it stop? I think we are on that muddy, slippery hill and about to dirty up our American way. Since the Charlottesville incident last week there are lawmakers, politicians, and certain groups, who seriously, actually, want to remove the faces from Mount  Rushmore. These same people are also making a move to do away with the Thomas Jefferson Memorial and wipe away the name of president George Washington by removing statues of him, removing his name from building,,parks, etc. -- that's crazy.

It appears to me that some of these groups and lawmakers have the  strong desire  and sole intent to tear down the country as we know it. When  American politicians, lawmakers, and certain groups, begin to remove, erase , and rewrite history and America's past, that is the beginning of the end.

Their actions will sink America to the same depths  as Venezuela, Libya, Cuba, and  the Banana Republics of South and Central America -- and yes, Iraq and Syria. If you recall, destroying thousand year old monuments and statues was one of the first tasks of ISIS and the Taliban. They moved on from there to destroy and erase libraries and building which held the rich history of those countries.

Bottom line: A memo to the governors, politicians, and lawmakers across America:

Put the removal of Confederate  statutes and monuments (and any other erasure of  America's history) to a vote (BY THE AMERICAN CITIZENS), of this country. --And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.
