Little Bits Of Importance

Sometimes, it's worth taking note of small points that are truly important.  Here are a few examples:

1.  President Trump had said that he was going to have the G-7 meeting at one of his properties in Florida and to do so at cost.  The mainstream media and the Democrats went crazy claiming that Trump was profiting from his office.  As a result, they're moving the G-7 meeting elsewhere at a much greater cost to the US taxpayer.  The media and Democrats are calling this a "victory".   Why?

2.  Since Trump relocated US forces in Syria (about 50 of them), the Democrats are strong advocates for defending the border of Syria against a Turkish incursion.  Why will the Democrats defend the borders of Syria but not of the USA?

3.  Turkey has been home to about 3.6 million refugees from Syria for the past few years as a result of an agreement between the Turkish government and the EU that the Turks would prevent the refugees from going beyond the Turkish borders to the countries in Europe like Germany where most of these refugees prefer to be.  The Turks told the Europeans last week that if they interfered in the fighting between the Turks and the Kurds in Syria, Turkey would release these refugees to move on elsewhere in Europe.  The Dems have denounced this move by the Turks as immoral.  Why are the Dems against the release of Syrian refugees to Europe while they so much want those same refugees settled in the USA?  Why is it immoral for Turkey NOT to keep refugees seeking asylum from moving on while they say it is immoral for Mexico to keep purported refugees from moving on to the USA?

4.  Democrats who control California have put in place a tax for any citizen residing in that state who does not have health insurance.  At the same time, the state government also passed measures to provide illegal aliens with free health care.  Why do citizens need insurance but illegals get the same care for free?

5.  We learned this week that in 2015 officials of the Obama State Department notified vice president Biden that the position of his son Hunter as a director of Ukrainian gas company Burisma at the least looked like major corruption and could in reality be actual corruption.  Biden, of course, has famously said that he never discussed with Hunter his position with Burisma and only learned of it from the media years later.  This morning, the Sunday shows supposedly covered politics, impeachment, and the rest, but only FNC mentioned Biden's obvious lie about the corruption of Hunter and Burisma.  Why isn't uncovering an obvious and important lie by Biden worthy of discussion.

6.  The Louisiana primary vote in the last week showed a major jump in voting among Republicans that far outstripped the small increase among Democrats.  Exit polling also showed that something like 25% of the black votes went to the Republicans.  Once again, the mainstream media hasn't even mentioned these figures.  If 25% of blacks vote for Trump in 2020, there will be a GOP landslide.  Why isn't this actual vote worthy of mention while every poll taken gets major coverage?
