MEMO TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: SHUT THE GOVERNMENT DOWN.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
President Trump:
PLEASE DO NOT BACK DOWN ON SHUTTING DOWN THE GOVERNMENT!!!!
You promised after the fiasco on the omnibus bill you "would not" sign another bill like that again. You did not get any of the things you wanted because of the Democrats and the Republican establishment entrenched in Congress. Those established Republicans do not want to change the status quo in the cozy, financial and lucrative benefits they have been receiving all these years.
If you do not know it by now, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan ARE NOT your friends. They are a major part of the swampy congress and establishment that have never wanted to or intend to follow your winning policies and agenda. They, like Senators McCain Flake and Graham have not been with you from the "get go."
Mr. President, these Republicans have been working against you to further their own agendas and protect the establishment and organizations such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. It is clear they actually want illegal aliens in the United States for the sake of "cheap labor." And Democrats want illegal aliens for votes. It has been that way for decades and continues to this day. It is obvious that McConnell and Ryan talk to you and give you what I believe to be misinformation. They want you to keep kicking the can down the road on the wall and immigration like they themselves have been doing for decades. especially when it come to strict immigration policy like lottery, chain migration and closing the loop holes in the law. How many times can they whisper in your ear saying that if you shut down the government it will affect the mid-terms. That;s hogwash. Once you postpone your decision, you can bet following the mid-terms they will again tell you they do not want you to make waves or ask for a wall or immigration reform because it will affect the 2020 presidential race and election.
Mr. President, you clearly need people around you that support YOUR policies and AGENDAS. You should not have to support their agendas. Ryan and McConnell have been throwing up roadblocks against you from the beginning and they were successful for approximately two years now.
You ran on immigration and the wall as a signature promise. So, I would suggest that you make these self-serving lawmakers like McConnell and Ryan follow your lead, you policy, your agenda. It is time for them to get on board or get out. Personally, I think Ryan should have been gone long ago. This man has always hurt you more that help you, and he's doing it in the name of the establishment.
It is enough you have to contend and battle against the resistant Democrats and the biased media. You clearly do not need obstructionists like McCain, Flake, Graham, McConnell and Ryan thwarting your every move.
You, Mr. President, have done amazing things with the economy, rules and regulation, foreign and world affairs. Thus far, you have did more that previous presidents have done in their eight year terms. Imagine what you could accomplish without these established Republican anchors around your neck telling you "they know best." NEWS FLASH! They are a major part of the problem, not the solution. They do not want your type of change in Washington, They want to hold on to the power they had for these many decades.
I suggest you do not let them continue to get away with their self-serving agenda. My advice would be. SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT. Mr. President, it wasn't to long ago that the Democrats were going to do the same thing. And, when the government has been shut down in the past the world did not end. Fact it, it seemed the government worked more efficiently during the shut down. All that happens on a shut down is that a few parks and federal buildings close, non-essential federal personnel get time off and business goes on as usual.. And, because of the federal rules-- all of the federal employees always get back pay for being off. (Which I and many citizens across the country do not agree with). Some of these Republicans you have in leadership roles always back down on important bills, issues, and policy. They allow the Democrats to always win am argument . The Democrats always vote in lockstep but the Republicans who are led by these feckless instigators lose all the battles. SHUT IT DOWN!
Mr. President, you promised the wall and immigration change. You said you would not sign another bill like the one the establishment Republicans talked you into signing in the recent past. Please keep you word and say what you mean and mean what you say. Do your own thing. Follow your own thinking and instincts.I believe you have been receiving bad advice from those in Congress. And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

C,ALIFORNIA WAS THE GOLDEN STATE. NOW IT'S A GARBAGE DUMP LANDFILL.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
California is now a cess pool. It;s disgusting. I used to live in the state. I lived there between 1956 and 1993. But now , I don't recognize the state and what it has morphed into. Believe it or not it used to be the GOLDEN STATE. But now it's nothing but one big trash bin. For one, the homeless population is wrecking the state, big time. What used to be pristine, sunny, clean beach communities has turned into homeless tent cities spanning the entire Southern Coastline, Northern California is getting even worse. Look at San Francisco. It once was a pinnacle of style, class and cleanliness , now it looks like a garbage dump.Its streets are lined with stacks of garbage. Homeless encampments are set up even on the downtown streets by the city hall. The streets are filthy.They are littered with used drug needles, and the homeless urinate and "poop" on the street, in the mornings, and evenings, in front of other people trying to carry on daily business. This is occurring in high rated tourists spots, exclusive hotels, government centers, and children's parks and playgrounds. The homeless also have tent communities set up near schools, business properties and they even flow over into upscale, residential areas throughout California.
Now lets talk about the illegal immigrants in the state. California is filled with about 11 million. California has one of the highest number of people on welfare in the entire country. And the majority appear to be illegal aliens taking advantage of the system.And another drain on California taxpayers is the food stamp program which is abused by the same group of people. Combine,the welfare and food stamp give-a-ways to these people and I would suggest it is even a larger that many countries on the globe provide. It's a disgrace.
Keep in mind also that the illegal immigrants who are living in California do not want to assimilate into American society. They want to have their own separate country within the country of the U. S. Fact is, 40 to 50 percent of the Californians (mostly illegal aliens) living at home do not speak English. The state has a number of cities that filed or went bankrupt and that doesn't surprise me because the state is running a debt of an approximate 1,5 TRILLION DOLLARS. Is it any wonder that the bridges and highways are trashed and crumbling before your very eyes and the school and educational system is failing dramatically and rated as one of the worse in the nation?
It's a sad state of affairs. You can blame most of these problems on a very liberal group of political power people maintaining a stranglehold on the state, the sanctuary city policy of protecting criminal illegal aliens and allowing them to run amok in the streets , raping, committing burglary, armed robberies, and collecting all the freebies that the state gives away.
I submit that California politicians forgot the American citizen, the hard working middle class person that pays the taxes for their greed. They give away more benefits and advantage to illegal aliens than they ever even consider giving the the American citizen that built their state and made into the GOLDEN STATE, which is long gone now. I see California as one big garbage landfill getting larger by the day. - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decision. You decide.

I WAS ASKED, DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE DIET?
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
A reader wanted to know my opinion of the paleo diet. I myself have tried many diets over the years and have tried paleo and I have my preferences but lets discuss the paleo diet. You will be eating a lot of saturated fat with the red meat, egg yolks and cheese. Naturally, remember moderation is the key word when eating these things. All these mentioned foods can change your body metabolism and make-up. There can be changes in your blood stream and and intestinal tract presenting a risk of heart disease, stroke or even cancer. Also I have found that when using this diet I failed to get enough fiber and poly nutrients from whole grain foods which I felt a need for. I switched to a plant-based diet regimen. It is hard for the human body to handle saturated fats for long periods of time or on a regular basis. Plant fats are loaded with polyphenols. That's good. If your choose to eat animal based food I would suggest sticking to foods like fish, skinless poultry (turkey and chicken) and other foods like avocados and walnuts and beans. - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

A FAVORITE DIET OF MINE? HERE"S ONE MY FAVORITES.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS - Hello America,and how is the world treating you?
To answer a second request as to, do I have a favorite diet. As I previously stated in a prior blog, I have tried many, many different diets over the years but I have to say one of my favs is the Mediterranean Diet. It has been around for quite awhile and has a lot of participants. It leans a lot toward seafood, veggies and grains. Fact is, the American Stroke Association has endorsed the Mediterranean Diet as a way for people with pre-and-post-stroke conditions to fare better. And the Mediterranean Diet is good for the heart and has other beneficial results for all around good health. It may even let you trim a few excess pounds to allow you to become a little leaner and meaner.
BUT, if you want to try a diet that pumps up and muscles up the Mediterranean Diet by giant leaps and bounds that improves not only the bodies health but your mind (very good for people with cognitive problems and mental decline), kick the Mediterranean Diet up with things that include grains, and green leafy veggies. To improve one's mental abilities I would suggest and recommend that you eat at least three servings of whole grains, and a variety of green leafy veggies. Use all colors of veggies, try them all. Eat them every day. And if you drink wine, drink one glass of wine each day. If you snack, choose nuts as your first choice as a snack. Walnuts are a good choice. They are high in omega-3. Try to include beans in your meals at least every other day, choose skinless turkey and chicken and a variety of berries in your meal plan at least twice a week. And, finally, include fish in your meals at least once a week.
Remember, all of the foods I recommend here are jam packed with a super abundance of nutrients like folate, vitamin E, carotenoids and flavonoids and omega-3 fatty acids. So, go for it. It's a punched up version of the Mediterranean Diet. I think it will work wonders for both your body and mind. -And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.

WHAT CAUSES MY URINE TO SMELL?
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS- Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
Answering a request for "smelly urine", I'm going to offer the following information. Hope it helps.
Your urine smells like ammonia? And it comes and goes every few days? More likely than not the ammonia smell is because you are dehydrated. Also medications and vitamin supplements may cause the smell. When the chemicals and body fluids interact and the waste in your body becomes very concentrated the color and smell of your urine can change. If you have a deep -yellow color urine, I would recommend that you begin drinking more water. You have to shoot for a very pale or near colorless urine flow. Vitamins and foods that contain B-6 (Salmon, Turkey) or garlic and asparagus can also cause your urine to smell with a strong odor. These foods contain a sulfur compound (methylmercaptan). And, don't overlook the possibility of stress and worry or changing medications or vitamin regimens which sometimes can cause smelly urine.- And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide .

LAWMAKERS:FIRE ALL THESE GREEDY TEACHERS WALKING OUT ON THE KIDS.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS- Hello America, and is the world treating you?
The teachers unions are at it again. Hundreds of teachers continue to walk out of the classroom in Oklahoma City. They always use the excuse "it's for the kids". Are you kidding me? The truth is the strikes are ONLY for them. Just them. It looks like implied extortion against the state.
This money grab was started by the teachers going on strike in West Virginia walking out for nine days and winning a 5 percent wage increase. The governor of West Virginia should have held fast on the original offer he gave the West Virginia teachers. They should have either accepted the increase that was offered by the Governor and given the choice of returning to the classroom or be fired.
Following the Governor's cave in to the union and the West Virginia win for more salary Oklahoma, Kentucky, Arizona and other states jumped on the bandwagon and want to leave the kids education slide by not showing in class to teach. Hell, Arizona teachers are DEMANDING a 20 percent increase in wages. But the teachers in Oklahoma said that's not good enough. They said, "WE WANT MORE". Governor Fallin signed legislation granting 15 to 18 percent wage increases for the teachers--but again, the teachers acting like bully's on a play and a bunch of out of control adolescent tweens said, "WE WANT MORE".Some even suggested a 50 percent pay increase. WHAT?
Average teacher salary in Oklahoma is about $45,276.00. Believe me when I say there are a lot of people working in the United States for much less each year. And, they don't have the benefits that the teachers enjoy. A few teachers from Oklahoma that were interviewed on television said, " I have to work two jobs to get by. NEWS FLASH! There are thousands and thousands of people working two jobs, even three jobs to get by. So what are these teachers whining about? If they didn't have the teachers job they would be worse off and have to work two jobs in another profession or occupation. What makes these teachers different that others who work to get by. The answer--the teachers and the teachers unions across America feel they are "entitled."
The teachers and their unions across America always bargain for lucrative pension and benefits with annual wage increases in salary. I submit the teachers across this nation, because of their powerful union connections, are much better off that average Joe and Jane Doe who are grinding out a living, trying to survive and put food on the table. These everyday people don't have the pension and retirement benefits that the teachers enjoy and will never see them in their lifetime.
My suggestion to the teachers climbing on this money grab--you already have a job. enjoy it. You all knew what the job and salary was when you took it. You knew what the benefits and pension was when you took the job. You knew what the annual increase in you salary would be." Note: In the private sector you would not enjoy an annual salary boost in pay". People working everyday jobs without a powerful union work years without seeing a pay raise. So, teachers, live with the choice you yourself made, or quit. Work in another occupation and then see how well you really had it working as a teacher.
It was a sad day when the states let teachers form a union. They, like all other public employees and their unions are out of control. These unions only push their state to the brink of bankruptcy trying to satisfy their greedy demands for an always higher annual wage, free or near free health benefits and over the top pension and retirement. Some states did go bankrupt because of the public employees union demands.
I suggest the governors and state legislators REFUSE to give in to the teachers demands. If they do not want to work for the salary and benefits they agreed to from the get go and APPRECIATE the annual raises they already receive and those the states offered. LET THEM WALK and possibly quit. Let them see what they will do without a job. Lawmakers, people are let go or fired from their jobs each and every day across this country. They will go to work for someone else. I say let them do that. Lawmakers and politicians-- REMEMBER, president Ronald Reagan? He fired each and every air traffic controller in one fell swoop and hired others. And guess what? The country moved on without a ripple.And, the fired employees squealed and griped about not having a job. The president called their bluff.
I would like to see the lawmakers and politicians stand their ground against the unions for once in their life instead of being afraid of offending the union and losing votes in an election. I would further suggest that the lawmakers tell the teachers to return to the class and work for the salary which the state put into effect. If these greedy teachers refuse, FIRE THEM. There will be people standing in line to take their jobs.
If the teachers do not want to go into the classroom and teach the children, they shouldn't be in the teaching profession. And lawmakers, how long do you think it will be before the loving parents of these children who are not being taught get fed up with the teachers over the top demands? When the parents kids are being short-changed you can bet they will show their anger against the teachers.
Teachers, here's another note for you---the poor senior citizens in this country living on Social Security failed to get an increase in their social security for three years in a row awhile back. Then when they did get and increase--one year they saw about 1.7 percent, another year, only a 2.7 percent increase. So, why don't you teachers and public employees stop screaming for 5, 6, 7, 8 percent pay increases (and now demands for 20 and 50 percent?) Stop holding lawmakers, and everyday citizens of the state hostage. Your pay comes out of our pocket. Remember, times have changed. Everyday people do not get these large percentage increases in their wages. So , my question? What makes you teachers so entitled to what others will never see in their lifetime? And, that's my opinion. Make your own decision. You decide.

PRESIDENT TRUMP CAN BUILD THE WALL WITH MILITARY FUNDS. DON'T BELIEVE CONGRESS SWAMP DWELLERS.
THE KUHNS REPORT
LAS VEGAS- Hello America, and how is the world treating you?
Were vou as angry as I was when Trump signed that $1.3 trillion omnibus bill. There was no $25 to 28 billion for the wall that was a signature item for president Trump.The Democrats and establishment Republicans in the swamp got what they wanted. They rolled the president over and over telling him the omnibus bill will give him everything he demanded but instead snookered him. The wall wasn't funded, planned parenthood got millions, and Trump's agenda was tossed under the bus so the president would sustain damage to his policies, election promises, and his presidency.
Trump also said he was angry with the bill and stated he would not ever sign a bill like this again. That's nice, but the damage is done. He signed the bill.
He came out a couple weeks later saying he would use some of the money allocated for the military to build the wall on the southern border. But some of the establishment, Republicans and Democrats said he cannot do that unless it is permitted by an act of congress. Here is where I say these establishment swamp monsters are wrong. I submit it will not take an act of Congress. President Trump can use part of the military money for his wall. Let me explain. ARE YOU LISTENING, PRESIDENT TRUMP?
I submit that this omnibus bill IS NOT a budget. If it were, yes, Congress would have to give permission as to where Trump can spend the money. But again, the omnibus bill is clearly not a budget. It is a spending bill. That's it. So, President Trump can forget about any instructions and demands and wishful thinking by the swamp monsters in Congress as to where to specifically spend the money.
I further submit that if president Trump declares that the building of the wall is a "national emergency" he indeed can spend funds on the project and anything else he wants to. Remember, there is already a precedent set here. In fact, the precedent was set by former president Obama who ignored spending rules. So, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Right? So president I would suggest you disregard the Democrats priorities in this fiasco of a bill--and REDIRECT money to your own priorities.
There is a large cushion in the allocated funds for the military. And I further suggest that once the president declares the wall between the United States and Mexico a "national emergency" for the security and protection of the United States he can, and should redirect about $25 billion of the military spending with an order to build the wall. And, folks believe it or not there will still be more that enough money in the omnibus bill to build up our military readiness. -- And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.
