BREAKING : NEW ANN COULTER COLUMN “The Silence of the Congress”
Let’s compare what President Trump has accomplished since the inauguration (with that enormous crowd!) with what congressional Republicans have done.
In the past three weeks, Trump has: staffed the White House, sent a dozen Cabinet nominees to the Senate, browbeat Boeing into cutting its price on a government contract, harangued American CEOs into keeping their plants in the United States, imposed a terrorist travel ban, met with foreign leaders and nominated a Supreme Court justice, among many other things.
(And still our hero finds time to torment the media with his tweets!)
What have congressional Republicans been doing? Scrapbooking?
More than 90 percent of congressional Republicans kept their jobs after the 2016 election, so you can cross “staffing an entire branch of government” off the list. Only the Senate confirms nominees, which they’ve been doing at a snail’s pace, so they’ve got loads of free time — and the House has no excuse at all.
Where’s the Obamacare repeal? Where are the hearings featuring middle-class Americans with no health insurance because it was made illegal by Obamacare?
The House passed six Obamacare repeals when Obama was president and there was no chance of them being signed into law. Back then, Republicans were full of vim and vigor! But the moment Trump became president, the repeals came to a screeching halt.
After the inauguration (gigantic!), House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell put out a plan for repealing Obamacare … in 200 days. They actually gave their legislative agenda this inspiring title: “The Two Hundred Day Plan.”
TWO HUNDRED DAYS!
What was in the last six Obamacare repeals? If we looked, would we find “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” carefully typed out 1 million times? Seriously, what does Paul Ryan’s day look like?
This is the Silence of the Lambs Congress. They’re utterly silent, emerging from the House gym or their three-hour lunches only to scream to the press about Trump.
To the delight of the media, these frightened little lambs are appalled by nearly everything Trump does. They’ve been especially throaty about Trump’s temporary travel ban from seven terrorist nations — as designated by the Obama administration (and by everybody else who hasn’t been in a deep freeze in a Finnish crevasse for the past decade).
Just like the six Obamacare repeals, a refugee ban was already written and passed by one house of Congress. Then suddenly: the Silence of the Lambs. McConnell and Ryan are hiding under their desks, as Trump is being attacked from every side.
Way, way back, 15 long months ago, congressional Republicans didn’t have a problem with a total ban on Syrian and Iraqi refugees. Not for a mere three months like Trump’s order — but permanently, unless the director of the FBI, the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and the director of national intelligence personally certified that a particular refugee posed no danger to the U.S.
That bill passed the House with an overwhelming, veto-proof majority, including 47 Democrats. Then it went to the Senate to die.
But when President Trump imposed a comparatively mild three-month ban on immigrants from Syria, Iraq and five other terrorist nations, the same Republicans who had voted for a limitless ban on refugees whiled away their days calling reporters to denounce Trump.

Yes…Speaker Ryan…Senator McConnell… YOUR SILENCE IS DEAFENING!!! Where’s Your Voice For Your President???!!! Where’s Your Voice For America???!!! Where’s Your Voice For The People Who Voted You Into Office???!!! Instead Of Padding YOUR OWN
Interests…Taking Care Of YOU… Wilting Into The Background And Ignoring YOUR DUTY… Get Off Your Coward Ass And Do The Job That You Were Elected… And Overpaid To Do !!!
I don’t want to hear another self-righteous Republican senator or congressman. Saying Trump is in trouble
We’ll remember you and dump you back into the citizens labour pool. If you aren’t with the voters you are against us , your pulling a daffy duck. Cutting your support off and preparing for the drop. Back up our president or pack up and go home.
When the government leaders are power mad roaches, it’s time to use a proven removal technique.
Our Nation needs to re-define “Islam”!
The NATION of Islam
1. Islam is hiding behind the First Amendment as a “religion”. Islam is a NATION! (Farrakhan has one thing right, ”Nation of Islam”.)
2. Islam includes its own government(s), citizens, Sharia Law, culture, language, religion/constitution (Quran), borders (the ENTIRE world), and military forces. Even though scattered and rife with internal conflict; it is still united by the Quran!
3. The objective of Islam is WORLD DOMINATION and the enslavement or death of all who do not submit! Refer to the Quran.
4. Islam IS an ENEMY nation containing its own “religion” which is also known as “Islam”.
5. Any Muslim who is an official of any U.S. government agency in the US is an ENEMY nation infiltrator.
6. We (the USA) have unwittingly allowed this enemy to settle in our Nation. As such, we will continue to be attacked from within until this scourge can be removed.
7. Recognize Islam as it actually is, an enemy nation, foreign and domestic; and FIGHT it as an ENEMY nation!
