The American Companies That Aren’t Actually American Anymore

Many brilliant companies – from Apple to Starbucks – have been founded in the United States, starting out as small ventures to become international leaders in their fields. However, the world of business isn’t always as straightforward as it looks. Regardless of how well-rooted a company’s American history is, it doesn’t mean that it will always belong to Uncle Sam.

In fact, many quintessentially American brands are no longer American-owned at all. From Ben and Jerry’s to IBM and Holiday Inn, overseas investors have played a big part in keeping these companies moving forward. Without them stepping in, some of them may have ceased to exist altogether.\\\\\

Folks, it is not Biden’s age. Do not say, “He is too old.” That is not the issue. There are many 79 year-olds who could run the country. (My mother is 101 and has the smarts to know what is right.) It is not Biden’s age. It is (1) his cognitive decline. He should not be in charge of anything, let alone the U.S.A. and the world. And it is (2) his policies. He is wrong on every issue. Succinctly stated, he is ideologically anti-Biblical. And it is (3) his capacity to be controlled. No one knows who is running the country. Obama? Rice? WEF? Not sure. But it isn’t Biden. He doesn’t have the capacity. And it is (4) his corruption. Eternity will reveal exactly how compromised and corrupted he really is.
So…do not say “he is too old.” His age has nothing to do with it. It is his mental condition, his anti-Scriptural stands (not to mention his anti-Constitutional and anti-American ideology), his capacity to be controlled and his corruption. Age is not the issue.

 

GOP Rep. Issues Huge Warning to Dems After Latest Trump Indictment

House Republican Warns Democrats to 

'Pray for Plan A' After Latest Trump 

Indictment

By Joe Saunders  August 15, 2023

After yet another Democratic DA brought an indictment against former President Donald Trump late Monday, Republicans came roaring back.

In the House and the Senate, Republican lawmakers went public with fury at the “weaponization” of the supposedly neutral criminal justice system and attacked Democrats and the Biden administration for blatant politics aimed at affecting the 2024 presidential election.

But it was Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins, the ex-cop who doesn’t back down, who summed up the situation best.

After yet another Democratic DA brought an indictment against former President Donald Trump late Monday, Republicans came roaring back.

In the House and the Senate, Republican lawmakers went public with fury at the “weaponization” of the supposedly neutral criminal justice system and attacked Democrats and the Biden administration for blatant politics aimed at affecting the 2024 presidential election.

But it was Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins, the ex-cop who doesn’t back down, who summed up the situation best.

“Electing Trump for the third time, putting him back in the White House, and saving our country is plan A,” Higgins said in a statement, according to Fox News. “I advise all Democrats … pray for plan A.”

The statement might have sounded threatening, but it’s true — if not in the way Higgins may have meant it. Because what he called “plan A” is exactly what Democrats should be praying for (assuming there are Democrats who still pray).

The lawfare Democrats have unleashed on Trump — with an indictment in New York, two at the federal level and now this Georgia monstrosity — is more than just a political tactic of a power-hungry party desperate to stop the most powerful figure in the country opposed to President Joe Biden.

It’s a full frontal assault on the democratic traditions — lowercase “d” — that have made the United States the most astoundingly successful nation by any measure in the history of the world.

In a short-sighted bid for power, knowing the evidence of corruption against Biden has reached the point where it’s undeniable, they’re abusing the American government to the breaking point — and every American should pray that it doesn’t succeed, very much including the Democratic voters who bear undeniable responsibility for their party’s behavior.

To paraphrase a famous, long-disputed quote liberals loved to use to mock the Vietnam War, Democrats are destroying the village to “save” it.

Other Republicans made it clear that the continuing legal assaults on Trump are breeding contempt for the legal system — not the former president.

“Justice should be blind, Justice should be blind, but Biden has weaponized government against his leading political opponent to interfere in the 2024 election,” House Speaker Kevin McCarthy wrote on X, the platform formerly called Twitter.

“Now a radical DA in Georgia is following Biden’s lead by attacking President Trump and using it to fundraise her political career,” he said.

“Americans see through this desperate sham.”
