Trump Judges – Blowhard Chretien

Trump chips away at liberal U.S. appeals court majorities

Aided by fellow Republicans in the Senate, President Donald Trump is rapidly filling vacancies on U.S. appeals courts, moving some that had liberal majorities closer to conservative control in an ideological shift that could benefit his administration.

These 13 courts wield considerable power, usually providing the last word on rulings appealed from lower courts on disputes involving federal law.

Their rulings can be challenged before the U.S. Supreme Court, but most such appeals are turned away because the top court typically hears fewer than 100 cases annually. Eleven of the courts handle cases from specific multi-state regions, one handles cases from Washington, D.C., while another specializes in patent cases.

Chrétien says Americans made ‘a monumental error’ when they elected Donald Trump

When you’re in public life,’ Jean Chrétien said, “you fill a hole. And you realize that to fill the hole, you have to dig two more.”

For many people, that would be reason enough not to get into public life. But listening to the former prime minister — now 15 years removed from his last day in office — one gets the feeling he might like nothing more than to pick up that shovel again.

Chrétien may protest that he doesn’t want to be a Monday morning coach, doesn’t want to comment on the issues of the day in which he no longer plays a central part, but nudge him just a bit, and it turns out the 84-year-old has plenty to say.

Trump Has Set Economic Growth on Fire. Here’s How He Did It

President Donald Trump is more than 19 months into an administration engulfed in so much controversy that it may overshadow a tremendous achievement, namely an economic boom uniquely his.

During his time in office, the economy has achieved feats most experts thought impossible. GDP is growing at a 3 percent-plus rate. The unemployment rate is near a 50-year low. Meanwhile, the stock market has jumped 27 percent amid a surge in corporate profits.

The Trump Boom Is Real — Just Ask The Global Economy

Remember when everybody said that the “unexpectedly” strong economy under President Trump had nothing to do with his policies? He was just lucky because the global economy was booming, they said. Well, that attempt to dismiss the Trump boom just fell by the wayside.

Every three months, CNBC surveys its Global CFO Council to get their reading of the global economy. The council is comprised of Chief Financial Officers of the world’s largest 113 companies that combined are worth nearly $5 trillion.

Conrad Black: Trudeau’s high-tax, high-deficit, low-growth plan is doomed
Seven of our provinces have top tax rates above 50 per cent; this is state larceny. Other than in an extreme national emergency, the state has no right to more than half of anyone’s income

Trudeau’s carbon tax dream, our nightmare

Watching Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his minions impose their national carbon pricing plan on us is like watching children running through the hallway with scissors.

It’s all fun and games until somebody loses an eye, and we’re about to lose an eye.

Apparently, the Trudeau government has finally figured out that when you place a new cost of doing business on Canadian industries that their major competitors in the United States don’t have — a national carbon price — it makes our industries less competitive compared to those of our largest trading partner.
