MESSAGE TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. GET WITH THE PROGRAM. CHANGE YOUR WAYS.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
Yesterday, the court ruled that the House can have access to President Trumps financial records and the impeachment fiasco goes on. Here is a message to all Republicans in Congress, here this. All of this current mess would not be happening if you had not lost the House in the last election. What a bunch of idiots you were. You brought all of these investigations, subpoenas, and impeachment inquires down because you Republicans failed to carry out what you had promised the American people when Donald Trump was elected President.
How dumb can you people really be. Hell, you had the House, The Senate and the White House but once the election was over you Republicans began to fight among yourselves with all of the various factions in the House. You could not agree on anything. You left the health care, immigration and border security and other promises by the wayside. Your constant infighting and disagreements in the House turned off the voters that elected you. You all promised to support this President and push through his policies and agenda. Face it- you Republicans lost the House because of your failure to act in "unison", as promised. Your party brought this havoc and disruption down on the country on your own.
Why didn't you Republicans in the House hit the ground running when you people had everything? You had the opportunity to really change things in America. You squandered you advantage. You should have immediately started to enact President Trumps policies from day one, acting together in agreement instead of bickering and fighting with your different in-groups. Hell, at the the Democrats have one thing going for themselves. They have always acted in unions and lockstep. They vote in one block most always.
I submit, what you Republicans need to do is act in unison and lockstep also like you did when Newt Gringrich made the "Contract with America." Take a page from you own old playbook. How can the voters trust you to do what you say you're going to do before the elections if you renege on those commitments the day after you get elected? The Republicans disappointing actions of not fulfilling their promises following the president election of 2016 certainly makes me and other voters wonder if we put all of you Republicans back in charge of the House and Senate AGAIN, if you would take action IMMEDIATELY and actually carry out President Trumps policies and agenda this time around. Can you do that? If so, let the voters know you will commit to immediately starting passing legislation once you are elected.
I suggest that all of you Republicans in the House and Senate gather in one room together and hash things out before the next presidential election and make sure you ALL agree, in UNISON before hand on specific legislation that you will IMMEDIATELY push through without delays, without arguments among House members and the different Republican caucuses. I say, know you plan from the very beginning in which all of you Republicans will carry out.
Finally, once all of you Republicans find you can all agree on what you are going to do if you take back the House and Senate, go out before the voters prior to the presidential election of 2020 and tout and promote and tell the voters exactly that plan, letting people know that THIS TIME, you will do what you PROMISE and you can tell us voters with certainty that all of the Republicans in the House and Senate are on board with the specific legislation that you will pass. GOD! Wake up Republicans. Stick together. Agree to agree and maybe, just maybe, the voters will give you a second bite at the apple that you squandered and threw away the first time around. I know my friends, relatives, associates would have no problem voting for your party and putting you back in charge if you can STOP all of the infighting and do that which you say you would do.
Mark my words Republican Party, if we voters DO put you back in charge where you hold the House, the Senate and White House AGAIN, DO NOT SCREW A GOOD THING UP AGAIN. There will be no third bite at the apple securing the House, Senate, and the White House.- And, that's my opinion.Draw your own conclusions. You decide.

THE UAW IS FORCING COMPANIES TO LEAVE THE UNITED STATES.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
The UAW strike is now going into its 5th., week. The workers are still complaining,whining and sniveling that they want GUARANTEED job security. WOW! The average John or Jane Doe worker that does not have a powerful union on their job doesn't have a guaranteed job security promise by their employers. They have to show up for work and produce on the job or possibly be laid off or fired.
Non-union employees do not enjoy over the top health care coverage or automatic salary increases on the basis of whether they perform their job up to par. If they under perform or do not satisfy the employers goals they are history and gone.
Yet these UAW workers want a job security guarantee that they can hold on to their job no matter what, and want more money and benefits even though they may be an incompetent employee, perform their duties badly or just are lax and lazy on the job. The UAW employees do not want robots or artificial to take their job, saying if that happens they still want guarantees that they will still get a pay check and benefits from the auto companies.
UAW people are also complaining that too many cars are being built in Mexico instead of the United States. Well UAW workers, I suggest that the UAW brought this action on themselves with their constant demands for ever increasing salaries, super healthcare and pension/retirement benefits. The UAW union has been pricing themselves out of work for years. With such demands on any company it reaches a point where the company has to look else for more reasonable employees.
I've watched over the years where these unions gave the employers no choice but to close down or go bankrupt. The union pickets and strikes against a company demanding more and more and when the company says they are closing down or going out if business the union workers then gripe and complain that they do not have a job to go to. What they do is price themselves right out of a job.
I certainly do not blame the employers for shutting down, closing their doors, go bankrupt or leave the United States. These unions workers cut off their own nose to spite their face. They would rather be out of a good, steady job than work for a reasonable wage that the employer sets and believes is fair.
Folks, these unions are a thing of the past. They were needed and required in the early 1900's but now they are a white elephant, obsolete.
Usually when a person applies for job, they know the benefits and wages being offered for a specific position. The person accepts the job based on what is offered. They know what they are getting into, and being paid in salary and benefits. If they do not like the arrangement or become unhappy with the job, they can leave and get a job somewhere else. However, these unions tell the employees they should be getting more for their work and the only way to resolve the matter is to picket and strike the company.
The majority of workers in the country do not have these unions running their lives. They get up and go to their job every day supporting their families and depend on the employers to pay them a living wage and they do just fine. It's time for these unions to come to an end. These union workers should have no more, or no less job security than the millions of non-union workers across this country.
I suggest that these unions are bad for business and they are forcing these companies to close up or leave the country. - And, that's my opinion. Form your own conclusions. You decide.

HOORAY! KUDOS TO PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR REMOVING ALL TROOPS FROM SYRIA. NOW, MR. PRESIDENT, DO THE SAME WITH AFGHANISTAN.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
Hooray! President Trump issued an order today to pull ALL the troops of of Syria. It's about time.
As the president says, it is time to end these endless wars around the world. I totally agree with that policy. The United States is not, and should not be the the worlds policeman of the world.
That money we have been spending in Syria can be used for projects in this country and it will save American lives of those service men and women that were tasked with the mission in Syria.
The Congress, the Pentagon, and the entire military machine that sucks our life blood of billions and trillions of dollars continue to fight these never ending wars, at the determent of the United States and the citizen taxpayers are paying the price.
Already Lindsey Graham, always a hawk for war, who never saw a war he didn't like is complaining and trying to second guess and pooh-pooh the Presidents decision and criticize the Presidents move. What a jerk he is. This guy and other lawmakers and politicians of his ilk, many who are making money off of the military machine in Washington and the Pentagon is always wanting to continue wars all around the globe and always offers advice to keep a presence of military men and women in these God forsaken countries. They continue to fail to lay out a plan when they try to intercede in these conflicts around the globe. These war hawks should, before they enter these conflicts have a plan indicating exactly what there specific mission is and what they want to accomplish, then set a specific date of entering the and then have a date certain for withdrawal., whether or not they accomplished their mission or not.
Graham and others like him has a duty to SUPPORT the Presidents policies instead of contradicting and criticizing the President. Get behind the President dummies!
If Graham wants to enact his own will and his own hawkish policies for war he should run AGAIN for President. His ideas were rejected by the American people in the voting booth when he tried to be President in the past. Bottom line, he can promote his policies and issue orders when and if he is President.
This move by President Trump to withdraw the troops from Syria should be acknowledged by Graham he should do everything in his power to help the President carry out this mission.
Now that the President is removing the troops from Syria, he should move to withdraw ALL troops from Afghanistan. We have been there approximately 19 years plus and it is well over time to bring those troops home. We, the taxpayers have spent billions and billions of dollars a year and gave the Afghanistan leaders millions and millions in corruption money, we rebuild their schools, gas stations, infrastructure, pay off the different tribes in the region with bribes and, FOR WHAT? The country and its corrupt officials continue to take our money by the millions and trillions of dollars and they still cannot run their own country. They want the United States to stay in their country, fight their wars for them while they continue to grow and sell opium and other deadly drugs to the United States population.
The military complex, the Generals and politicians that want to conduct constant wars always use the same lame argument "we are fighting them over there so they will not come here and fight us." I suggest that if and when they do ATTACK us, right here on our soil, then we retaliate , with overwhelming force and wipe them off the planet with the attitude of "take no prisoners." But until they ACTUALLY attack us on our shores and call us out, leave them alone to fight it out in their own country to settle their own territorial disputes they may have against one another.
Russia was a presence in Afghanistan and fought the Afghans for approximately 11 or 12 years or more and they withdrew all of their Russian troops and returned home. People, the world didn't stop when Russia took all of their troops out of Afghanistan. Time moved on. The world's commerce continued, the stock and financial markets around the world continued to function. Banks, business's and corporations around the world went on as usual in every country on the globe. Business as usual folks. The sky didn't fall. The world didn't come to an end.
The same happened with Vietnam, we lost the lives of tens of thousands of young men and women fighting that war and we didn't stay and occupy that country-and, look at Vietnam today, it became a prosperous country. After we bombed Japan and ended WW II, it rose up and became a prosperous country. Again, we didn't occupy the county. We let their people settle their problems on their own.
I suggest that the President continue to bring troops home from these outposts around the world. He should not buckle under any perceived pressure from people like Lindsey Graham and the military leaders. He should tell these war mongers to carry out his order and support his policy and decisions.
Lindsey Graham and some in the Pentagon, and profiteers in Congress advocate what I call the "Chicken Little Policy," where they continue to run around and shout: " " Run, run, Chicken Little, the sky is falling and if we don't fight these never ending conflicts and wars and keep American troops in the countries the world will come to and end." That's dumb. It's ridiculous.
Can you imagine, we supposedly trained the Iraq and Afghanistan Armies. But after the training many of these Iraq and Afghanistan soldiers threw down their weapons and ran. They went AWOL and ran away from the fight when they were confronted with a battle and left American military to carry their water and battle the alleged enemy.
Folks, I served in the Marine Corps and after enlisting I was sent to Camp Pendleton, California. The Marine Corps trained us to be a Marine in a couple months. After initial training all of us raw recruits were ready and able to deploy to any station in the world and fight and defend this country. Yet our lawmakers and politicians say we have to train Iraqi's and Afghan soldiers for 11 and 12 years. That's dumb. If they can train U. S. Army, Navy , Air Force and Marine raw recruits to be battle ready after two months, they should be able to train these foreign fighters the same way in the same amount of time. Problem is, these Iraqi and Afghans do not want to fight their own battles. They want to rely on the power of the United States military to do battle for them and have America spend billions of dollars giving them freebies (homes, gas stations, schools and pocket money, not including the corruption payoffs and bribes.). And our lawmakers are dumb enough to go along with the wishes of the Iraqi's and Afghans and Syrians, and they DO IT. And, still after 11 and 12 years you hear these same lawmakers saying "we're training the Afghans, Iraqi's and Syrian military to fight their own battles." What a joke. That's our politicians excuse to maintain a constant presence of American troops in these countries and make money off of the wars, at taxpayer expense.
Let these Mideast warring countries that have been fighting among themselves for centuries battle it out on their own. If they haven't resolved their differences by now, in hundreds of years, they will not resolve them with the assist of our United States military. Turkey and the Kurd's have been at each others throats for centuries. The Suni's and Shiitie's the same. I suggest we allow these Mideast countries to handle their own internal conflicts among themselves. Let these different factions conduct their own civil wars to determine who is in charge of their country.Thus, we, the USA deals with the government that is holding power and running those countries rather than choosing sides in the conflicts like we have done before.
I suggest we take all those billions and trillions of dollars we are dumping into the perpetual warring countries and spend it right here at home and build and maintain our own infrastructure, build our own schools for our own citizens. BUILD up America and take care of our needs here at home. That will make America great. There is nothing about making America great when our lawmakers and the Washington establishment continue squandering billions and trillions of dollars of our tax money on these corrupt nations. - And, that's my opinion. Draw your own conclusions. You decide.

TIME FOR TEACHERS TO BE REPLACED. ROBOTS AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
Quite a lot of businesses, corporations and industry are moving into robotics and artificial intelligence.
I would suggest that the educational system from Kindergarten through University levels of education come into the modern age of technology and do the same.
The government and administration should take the lead and begin using the artificial intelligence and robotics in the educational systems across the country.
With the advent and advances made in the world of computers, tablets and phones, etc, intertwined and married with artificial intelligence and robots we could take all teachers, professors, and instructors out of the classrooms. Right now, with touch of a finger any student can bring up almost instantaneously any bit of information regarding any subject in the universe. With search engines like Google and numerous others there is an infinite number of data bases that any student can access.
Each and every student from Kindergarten through University level study has every subject imaginable available to them. There is no limit. For example, math, science, civics, geography, history and the other myriad subject matter that is currently being taught in out institutions of learning can be presented by robotics. The students can access the information presented by a robot much more quickly and accurately than that being presented by a live human teacher, and the information will not have it subject to any teachers personal or political bias allowing the student to understand the subject matter fully. I submit that there is not any subject matter on this planet that cannot be accessed by the technology we have available to us today.
The life-like looking robots and artificial intelligence can be structured for specific courses of teaching and learning by the students.
Using robotics and artificial intelligence and automation in the classroom would eliminate the teachers never ending demands for ever increasing higher salaries, free health care, over-the-top retirement and pension plans. There would be no sick leave or teachers calling in sick to enforce a work slow down. The institutions would not have to pay high worker's compensation, or high health care benefits or the constant threats of teacher walk outs and strikes, leaving children and parents wondering what to do when they do strike.
Currently there are a lot of bad teachers working in the classrooms in this country and these bad actors cannot be fired. There have been numerous media reports citing the State of New York's teachers and describing crimes these bad teachers allegedly committed such as sexual and/or physical assault against a student and/or other serious crimes. Then there are those incompetent, bad teachers that are cause for termination but because the powerful teachers union these teachers cannot be fired and their cases drag on for years to be heard. Meanwhile, these bad teachers are put into what is referred to as the "rubber room", where they sit around, read books, eat snacks,watch t.v., and draw a full salary (at taxpayer expense) waiting for their cases to be heard. This same scenario plays out in school systems in towns and cities across the country.
Personally, I believe that teachers should not be unionized. If the educational systems in the United States were to convert to robotics and artificial intelligence to teach our students all subject matter could be offered in a straight forward, unadulterated manner, without the personal political and religious views of the teacher or instructor. The robots never get tired, get stress burnout, complain, get sick, or go on strike and can perform at the same level 24/7 if required. They are not demanding and do not have to confront unruly students and get assault themselves.. The robots can teach the subject matter at hand much more efficiently and faster that the live teacher.
These robots can deliver voluminous amounts of information pertaining to any one specific subject, even more that one human teacher can and could depart to a student. The robots can be monitored by one person or remotely by video panels to insure that the robots are performing accurately.
One of the worst things that could have happened is letting teachers unionize and grow into a political machine as it did. - And, that's my opinion. Draw your own conclusions, you decide.

These robots can deliver voluminous amounts of information pertaining to any one specific subject, even more that one human teacher can and could depart to a student. The robots can be monitored by one person or remotely by video panels to insure that the robots are performing accurately.
One of the worst things that could have happened is letting teachers unionize and grow into a political machine as it did. - And, that's my opinion. Draw your own conclusions, you decide.

GM AND AUTO INDUSTRIES SHOULD GO COMPLETELY ROBOT AND AUTOMATION.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
Well, the unions are at it again. GM is on strike again. They demand higher salaries, better heath care and looking for much better benefits in retirement and pensions. The worker hire in working for a living wage and get benefits and health, but get a "gimme" attitude and still demand more.
They are also afraid of automation and artificial intelligence doing them out of a job and demand to be protected and still get paid if robotics, automation and artificial intelligence is used to build the automobiles. WOW! What a joke.
I suggest that the auto industry go completely with automation and robots to build the autos. Progress moves on. Remember when the blacksmith's who used to shoe horses were put out of a job because the automobile came upon the scene? Times change and workers have to adapt to those changes.
The robots and automation can build the autos much more accurately that the human. Robots do not get tired, they do not complain, they do not ask for and demand over the top health care and fat, lucrative retirement and pension plans. Robots do not call in sick or wage work slow downs.They do not go on STRIKE and shut down work and production across the entire nation. They can work 24 hours a day, seven days a week turning out a product.
The auto makers will save tons of money on salaries, and benefits, insurance, employees calling in sick and filing frivolous claims against the auto companies.
If a large number of auto workers lose their job to automation they can move on and select another career path, and/or find another job somewhere. Naturally there will be a few auto workers and skeleton crew that will have to assist in the maintenance and operation of the robots and automation. These workers can be trained for the task which will be a new career path for the lucky ones that have the skill set to adapt to progress.
Remember, currently there are companies delivering products by self driving cars and trucks. That also puts human workers out of their job also. But again, it's progress.
One of the reasons for these moves to automation, robots and artificial intelligence by companies is because of the unending and over the tops demands of the workers now holding these jobs. When all of these workers signed on to work for companies they knew the wages and benefits packages from the get go. But enough is not enough.
If these union workers worked in jobs like the millions of employees across the country that do not belong to a union they would understand that you take a job knowing the salary and benefits before you start and then depend on the employer giving you a raise or increase in salary and benefits based on your work production for the company. These non union employees can get fired or let go at a moments notice if they are not performing and their salary increases and benefits and vacations depends on the employee showing up and doing the job expected of them, not by have expectations of automatic raises. benefits and protections of can't being fired or let go if they do not perform on the job.
I believe that most unions should be abolished. Unions were a good thing when they were first started and flourished in the early 1900's because back then they protected the workers from being exploited. All of the new immigrants coming to America at that time needed some protections, but now unions outlived their usefulness, they are out dated and just a money machine for those union bosses operating the unions and the workers constant demands for more and more.
The public employees and public sector union are the biggest offenders. Many of these pubic sector employees are bankrupting the cities and states with their constant demands for free health care, lucrative pension payouts, and salary increases. The pubic employees unions game the system. The government should have never, ever let the public employees unionize. And, that's my opinion. Come to your own conclusions. You decide.
