President Trump must break Huawei and ZTE and any other telecommunications company China puts forward as a friend to US technology.  China has  become evil in their pursuit for world domination.  If allowed to cross the line of no return, they will dominate us socially and economically and our only recourse would be a military war, which i am afraid would not turn out well for either side. I would suggest a type of Marshall Plan for Europe and our other allies around the world (most importantly Israel and Saudi Arabia) in the telecommunications arena since that is where our future seems to be headed. Nixon made a mistake no one ever foresaw. A free and open West can defeat the communist ideals espoused by China, but we must put up a firewall to keep their spying against their own people, until one day, the people of China may rise up and decide to become free.

President Trump
The average American family lives within a budget and manages to survive without going into excessive debt.  In other words, they do not spend excessive amounts of money they do not have.   All of the fifty states must also live within fixed budgets.  Why does the federal government get to spend money uncontrollably in excess of revenue?  The entrenched politicians have come to expect deficit spending because no politician seems to care about the 22 trillion dollars of US debt, we, the American people, owe.  Well, many people do care, and the ones that don't are a foolish bunch of economic illiterates.  Our national debt will push the United States to the brink of economic ruin and eventual collapse, way before any foreign military power or the disease of social degeneration.  Does China spend ungodly amounts of money in excess of revenue? I bet not. Don't agree to a two year budget deal.  Insist on a one year deal so that you can make a balanced budget amendment a key issue in the 2020 campaign.  The American citizens cannot afford this runaway national debt. One day someone will have to "pay the piper."  If you are sincere in keeping America great, do something about our national debt.

     The Catholic Church has been overtaken by homosexuals.  I can still remember that famous question posited to Pope Francis on one of his early plane trips when a reporter asked him if women could become priests and if homosexuals could marry in the church.  His answer was not a definite “no” to either question as I recall and left open the possibility of future scandal for the Church.  Then in 2016 the Pope decided to publish his exhortation,   Amoris Laetitia and so began the current schism among priests of the Catholic Church between the homosexuals and the celibate.  In Amoris Laetitia, the Pope opened a can of worms.  He stated that married and civilly divorced couples can receive the Eucharist in Mass and that the Church should freely accept and possibly extend the Eucharist to homosexuals.  These two statements clearly go against 2000 years of established truths of the Catholic Church through revelation and tradition which holds the indissolvability of marriage and a complete prescription against homosexuality.  Thereafter, Archbishop Chaput of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia immediately released “Pastoral Guidelines for Implementing Amoris Laetitia” which forbade divorced and civilly remarried heterosexuals and homosexuals, married or not, from receiving the Eucharist or taking part in the administration of Catholic Church functions. The issuance of the guidelines was immediately followed by four cardinals who signed a dubia addressed to Pope Francis. The five dubia were short and concise questions requiring “yes” or “no” answers from the Pope about these issues raised.  Pope Francis never responded. In 2017 a Filial Correction of Pope Francis was signed by 62 scholars which stated that the Pope has “effectively upheld 7 heretical positions about marriage, the moral life, and the reception of the sacraments, and has caused these heretical opinions to spread in the Catholic Church.”  Still the Pope remained silent. During Easter week of 2019 prominent theologians and philosophers within the Catholic Church issued an “Open letter to the bishops of the Catholic Church” which has accused the Pope of the crime of heresy based on 7 specific positions he has publicly and consistently taken since Amoris Laetitia and which are clearly against the magisterium.  They demand that the Pope recant these heretical positions, or, in the alternative, that the bishops declare him a heretic and remove him from the Chair of Peter.  The letter then switches gear and begins to list numerous priests, bishops and cardinals by name who have either been accused of homosexual activity and sexual assault or who have protected others accused of such crimes, and who have been placed in positions of authority at the Vatican.  The letter also mentions the secret agreement of the Pope to allow the rulers of communist China to appoint Catholic bishops.  (I wonder if Peter and Paul would have ever given Nero that authority.)
     Don’t believe me about the things you have just read.  Read the documents yourself by a quick search on google. Can you see what deviation from the divine law does?  It only brings in scandal, confusion, depravity and chaos.  It is always evil and can only cause strife and division.  Speak up.  It’s only your eternal soul that is in jeopardy if the Church, which Christ started, falls into ruin.
