Donald Trump delivered Larry Kudlow's dream speech

Last night, President Trump delivered one of the best speeches of his presidency. It was a speech that's likely got Larry Kudlow smiling ear-to-ear. In Kudlow's pre-speech riff yesterday, Kudlow implored President Trump to "look forward more than backward." Then Kudlow explained what he wanted to see by saying "What do I mean by that? He has a fabulous list of achievements in his first year. Most notably, closing the border and stopping illegal immigration. Passage of the one big, beautiful bill, with its pro-growth supply side tax cuts, deregulation, drill, baby, drill, as well as other elements. This was a major achievement."

Obviously, that's more of a backward glance since they're a list of accomplishments. What was Kudlow hoping to hear last night? Kudlow explained, saying "predicting a fabulously optimistic economic outlook. And leave just one quarter for the first year achievements. If people disagree with me on this, including major Trump supporters, I understand, presidential speeches always have some difficulties figuring out how to prioritize their key points."

As I listened to President Trump's fast-paced speech, I kept returning to this thought 'this is the type of speech Larry wanted. From President Trump's speech:

Under the Biden administration, car prices rose 22%, and in many states 30% or more. Gasoline rose 30 to 50%. Hotel rates rose 37%. Airfares rose 31%. Now under our leadership, they're all coming down and coming down fast. Democrat politicians also sent the cost of groceries soaring, but we are solving that too. The price of a Thanksgiving turkey was down 33% compared to the Biden last year. The price of eggs is down 82% since March and everything else is falling rapidly. And it's not done yet, but boy are we making progress. Nobody can believe what's going on. Here are just some of the efforts that we have underway. You will see in your wallets and bank accounts in the new year. After years of record setting falling incomes, our policies are boosting take-home pay at a historic pace.
If that isn't optimistic, nothing is. That must've had Kudlow smiling ear-to-ear. This likely got Kudlow smiling more:
Under Biden, real wages plummeted by $3000. Under Trump, the factory worker is seeing a wage increase of $1300. For construction workers, it's $1800. For miners, we're bringing back clean, beautiful coal. It's $3300. And for the first time in years, wages are rising much faster than inflation. Remember that the wages, just look at it, wages are going up much faster than inflation. How big is that? Very importantly, there are more people working today than at any time in American history, and 100% of all jobs created since I took office have been in the private sector. Think of that. 100% of all jobs have been in the private sector rather than government, which is the only way to make a country powerful and great.
That's incredible news in terms of wage growth. This morning, after Sen. Schumer shot his mouth off about Trump being out-of-touch, the CPI report came out with better-than-expected numbers. They were expecting year-over-year inflation to be 3.0%; instead, it was 2.7% YOY. Sen. Schumer should shut his mouth more often. I prefer listening to honest, smart people like this guy:

Comparitively speaking, I'd rather listen to more Kudlow than more Schumer. It's that straightforward.

Minnesota fraud gets national attention

Image
The Walz administration is getting nationwide attention, though it isn't the type of attention political administrations typically seek. Sohrab Ahmari didn't bury the lede when he wrote "There is no whitewashing this scandal: segments of the Somali community in Minneapolis have been engaged in systematic welfare fraud, and used some of the proceeds to fund the Al-Shabaab terror group in their homeland." Imagine the Outrage If... Imagine the outrage if "Hassan and her alleged co-conspirators recruited Somali parents’ children into autism therapy services — even if a child did not have an autism diagnosis — facilitating fraudulent claims. Parents reportedly received monthly kickbacks ranging from $300 to $1,500 per child, with some allegedly threatening to go to other fraud networks unless their rates were increased." It doesn't end there: Sure enough, both the number of autism providers and the rate of diagnosis have ballooned, with Somali activists insi...

Jaylani Hussein's phobia of whites?

A frequent reader of this blog sent me a picture showing gubernatorial candidate Jeff Johnson surrounded by Somalis following a November 2017 St. Cloud City Council meeting. This is that picture: Recently, a different frequent reader of this blog sent me a letter highlighting Jaylani Hussein's paranoia of white people: We are asking every member of our community to stay vigilant. If you see threats, harassment, or hateful content online, especially targeting Somali or Muslim communities in Minnesota, please report them immediately to CAIR-Minnesota and local authorities. We are tracking these developments closely. What’s happening: Our community is under coordinated attack In the last 48 hours, former President Donald Trump announced that he will immediately end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somali immigrants in Minnesota, a move that could tear families apart and send people back to a country they haven’t seen in decades. He justified this dangerous decision using false, I...

Proof that Tim Walz doesn't care about fraud or other crime

Image
Anyone that thinks that Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, doesn't care about preventing crime or fraud hasn't read this article . Alpha News is reporting that "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) has confirmed that Dylan Adams, the fiscal policy analyst caught on video vandalizing Teslas in Minneapolis, is still employed by the state — meaning Minnesota taxpayers are footing the bill for his salary. In response to Alpha News inquiries, a DHS spokesperson said: "Dylan Adams is a current employee." Apparently, the Walz administration doesn't care that it's employing a vandal in its Department of Human Services. As for whether Adams "has faced consequences for racking up more than $21,000 in damage during work hours , the agency offered little transparency. 'No public data exists with respect to disciplinary action,' the spokesperson said." This reminds me of the old phrase I coined, which says 'It's impossible to...
