This successful effort for Center assisting homeless provides proof of enhanced community service during the COVID-19 Pandemic. -OES-JurisdictionofMichigan
Apparently a 5.5 to 3.5 US Supreme Court is imminent. Do opportunistic Democrats, who have no one to blame but themselves, now regret cramming the 'simple majority' rule through under former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid?
Biden panders when he tells you that Trump's 2017 tax bill only benefited the rich. In truth, "the standard deduction was nearly doubled (from $6,350 in 2017 to $12,000 in 2018) and the child tax credit was doubled (from $1,000 in 2017 to $2,000 in 2018), according to Derek Silva (PolicyGenius, March 17, 2020). Econ 101 taught us that poor people do NOT create jobs but businesses do - and that's why Trump also "lowered the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%". If we really prefer 'Made in America', then we must stop 'business flight' abroad. Democrats want you to believe that we could enjoy more federal freebies if only the rich would pay their 'fair share' - even though 51% of us already pay NO federal income taxes. He may be a boardroom bully but Trump can negotiate better 'America First' trade deals, produce more non-taxpayer subsidized private jobs, and grow our investment & retirement portfolios better than Biden. Trump did it once and, as this lockdown wanes, will do it again -- and merits re-election!
Because presidential ‘debates’ emphasize style rather than principles, I stopped watching them in 1992. The few swatches I watched last night suggested that, when pushed and bulldozed, Biden reveals himself as yet another career glad-handing, big government globalist who promises to spend more of our tax dollars to get our votes. Although painfully inarticulate and certainly a boardroom bully, Trump delivers freedom, lower taxes, market growth, tighter borders, strong defense, and makes all boats rise. He gets my vote! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The Constitution requires ONLY that the President nominate and the Senate vote up or down on US Supreme Court candidates. There is NO requirement that the Senate Judiciary Committee must hold hearings so allow angry, disoriented, vindictive Democrats can destroy the nominee and his family, friends, and reputation!. Do it, Donald! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Parents, in compliance with Critical Race Theory (CRT) guidelines, hopefully none of you are peeking at or, Heaven forbid, helping your children with their homework. Perhaps kids should enroll in charter schools rather than return to their infested public schools this fall!

Nominations are now open for Dearborn-area residents to be considered for the tenth annual Steel Magnolia Award, the Middletown Community Foundation has announced.
Women who have overcome obstacles to positively impact the greater Dearborn community have the opportunity to earn recognition as Steel Magnolia Award recipients in the program funded by the AK Steel Foundation. Up to 13 awards are given annually, limited to no more than one recipient per AK Steel U.S. location per year. Each recipient designates a $2,500 donation to an eligible charity of her choice.
The award honors women of all ages who have faced personal adversity and have shown exceptional strength, courage, compassion and leadership through their work in support of their communities.
“The AK Steel Foundation is proud to fund the Steel Magnolia Awards to honor women who have overcome adversity and serve as a shining example to others,” said Roger K. Newport, Chief Executive Officer of AK Steel.
Middletown Community Foundation Development Officer Amy Berlean says: “Every year our independent judges are so impressed by the overwhelming ability of these women to overcome hardship and turn it into to something beautiful.”
Last year’s Dearborn-area honoree was Phyllis Moore, who has overcome extreme medical conditions. Her nominator said “her tenacity and determination is amazing.”
Moore chose Friends for Animals of Metro Detroit to receive her $2500 gift.
Nominations, which should take the form of an essay of 500 words or less, must be submitted to the program administrator, the Middletown Community Foundation, no later than August 31, 2018. Nominees must live in the vicinity of an AK Steel facility. Association with AK Steel is not a requirement for nomination and will have no bearing on the nominee’s consideration.
Other eligible communities are Ashland, Ky.; Butler and Friedens/Somerset County, Pa.; Columbus and Rockport, Ind.; Follansbee, W.Va.; and Coshocton, Mansfield, Middletown, Walbridge, West Chester and Zanesville, Ohio.
