Why Is Big Media Hiding This Astounding Number?



A Republican president with nearly 30% support from Black Americans?
YES! You better believe it -- even though Big Media has kept this information from you.
One year ago President Trump's support among African-Americans was 15%. Today, that figure has nearly doubled.
Even 15% would have been impressive for a conservative Republican. But 30%? That's downright beyond belief, right? Well, not when you consider that the economy is booming across the board and Black unemployment is at its lowest level ever. And not when you remember that at a recent meeting of Black leaders at the White House, President Trump was widely lauded for his efforts on behalf of African-Americans.
Yes, folks -- it's really happening.
President Trump asked Black people to give him a chance to show what he could do. And in just one short year, more and more African-Americans have chosen to #WalkAway from the Democrat Party and embrace President Trump and his pro growth economic message and policies.
Hooray!

By Any Standard Of Measure, He Has FAILED!

Big Mouth Never Lets Truth Get In The Way!

Thursday, following an alleged racial incident in Philadelphia, Mayor Jim Kenney—without even knowing all of the facts—said the incident was motivated by President Donald Trump’s “hateful rhetoric.”
His statement, in full, read:
“I am sickened by what took place today at Weccacoe Playground. Although the investigation is still underway, I want to immediately condemn this despicable act. It demonstrates how far this country has fallen when people are inspired by the hateful rhetoric of our President. And it is particularly disgraceful to make a sacrilege out of a sacred burial ground, where thousands of African Americans are interred. The City will do everything in its power to bring the people responsible to justice for this disgusting act.”
When the full facts were revealed, it turns out the incident was a prank played by two teenagers and did not have any racially-motivated intent.
In response, Republican Party of Pennsylvania Chairman Val DiGiorgio, made the following statement and is calling on Mayor Kenney to apologize for his remarks:
“Mayor Kenney owes the President an apology. In fact, he owes the citizens of Pennsylvania an apology.
“Subscribing to the ‘never let them facts get in the way of politics’ theory, Kenney blamed the President for a racially insensitive teenage prank without regard for the truth. It is this kind of pre-judgement that causes such divisiveness in our political discourse today.
“Yet again, Mayor Kenney has abused his role as the mayor of one of America’s leading cities. He put petty, partisan politics above leadership and civic duty.
“I’m deeply disappointed that he would rush to judgement and stoop this low to try to score cheap political points at the expense of the President and his supporters, be they Republicans, Democrats or Independents.
“Therefore, I call on Mayor Kenney to apologize for his remarks in the name of civil discourse and political reconciliation."

A Marvelous Partnership, A Beautiful New Garden!

Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast Catholic High School in Drexel Hill (Delaware County) will welcome community partners and supporters at a ribbon cutting ceremony for a new community garden on Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast’s campus.  

Tuesday, August 7, 2018
11:00 a.m.
Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast Catholic High School
Community Garden (Corner of Lansdowne and Huey Avenues)
403 North Lansdowne Avenue
Drexel Hill, PA 19026 (Delaware County)

During the ceremony, school administrators including President John Cooke, will be joined by Pastor David Shaheen, Executive Director, Upper Darby Community Outreach Corp (UCDOC) and Stacey and Sean McNicholl, owners and operators of Greenhorn Gardens and lead creators of the community garden.   Upper Darby Mayor, Thomas N. Micozzie, will also be on-hand to participate.  

When students at Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast return to school in September they will have the opportunity to begin volunteering in the garden, which will be located at the corner of Lansdowne and Huey Avenues.  In addition to students and community volunteers benefiting from the garden’s harvest, vegetables will also be donated to the Aid for Friends at Saint Vincent dePaul Society Food Pantry located at Blessed Virgin Mary Parish in Darby (Delaware County).

Mr. and Mrs. McNicholl, are sustainable-agriculture advocates. For the past six years they have been practicing the art of urban farming on small-scale diversified plots of land throughout the township. They approached Pastor Shaheen from UCDOC with the idea of a community garden in Upper Darby.  He then connected them with Dr. Cooke at Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast and the community garden planning and site development was implemented.

Oh, The Wonderfully Special Joys Of AUGUST!

August is sort of the forgotten month.
Stuck somewhere between the 4th of July (everyone's favorite summer holiday) and the nondescript Labor Day, August often gets lost in the shuffle.

It's the month that the year barely recognizes.

If you haven't taken your vacation by the middle of August you may be out of luck since many people have already booked the last two weeks of August in the hopes of squeezing all they can out of summer's last full month. If you're working every day in August, (especially in the city) things may seem quite lonely and even barren

And August is also a long month with some of the hottest weather imaginable, which can make August afternoons seem interminably long, even while summer appears to fly by in a wink.

Poor August. 
It has no real identity and apparently nothing to distinguish it.

But August is a wonderful month -- a month that simply does not get enough attention and is wrongly unheralded.

Here are ten reasons to love August:

1) The month has no holidays -- no special days that you need worry about. So, in August every day is special and every day belongs to you.

2) Lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer. August invites you to linger. Indeed, the summer heat of August compels you to linger. Stretch out, gaze, daydream - do whatever you want!

3) Fresh sweet corn, tomatoes and peaches. All are at their peak in August and all are wonderful!

4) Julius Caesar. The great Roman emperor extended our summer by adding two days to August in 753 BC. Now, August has 31 wonderful days!

5) The Perseids, a spectacular meteor shower which will light up the August sky this year between August 11 and 14. During the peak, the rate of meteors reaches 60 or more per hour. They can be seen all across the sky in the northern hemisphere.

6) The ocean water temperature which warms in August and becomes about as inviting as it's gonna be all summer. Wonderful!

7) Go Topless Day on August 26th. What? You didn't know about this? It's about as frivolous a commemoration as you can imagine.

8) The fearless lion and the sun. Most August birthdays are blessed to be part of the most regal sign of the zodiac, Leo. Those born under Leo take the Lion as their mascot and rule as natural born leaders. Their planet is the sun.

9) Red, yellow and orange. The incadescent colors of August. Check out all the fresh produce!

10) Augustus, the founder of the Roman empire who ruled from 27 BC until his death in 14 AD. The reign of Augustus initiated an era of peace known as Pax Romana. Were it not for Augustus, August would still be known as Sextilis, it's original name. Hey, we told you this was a sexy month. Enjoy!

The One, The Only And Also THE BEST!

OMG! Setting Great New Records Every Day!


The Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics says a record 155,965,000 people were employed in July, the 11th record-breaker since President Trump took office 19 months ago.
The unemployment rate edged down to 3.9 percent, as the number of employed people reached new heights, and the number of unemployed persons declined by 284,000 to 6,280,000 in July.
