The wall.

China’s finest invention, or a lyric in a Pink Floyd song.

We have now reached over 100 days in the Trump administration, and so far, it has not gone well. From three judges overturning the Muslim ban to not getting proper authorization to send tomahawk missiles into Syria to not even remembering what country he struck in an interview, I would say that the chocolate cake he consumed from the contagious Mar-a-Lago resort’s kitchen has given him dementia. The only thing he has gotten his way on is his SCOTUS nomination, Neil Gorsuch, getting confirmed. And that comes with an asterisk, as that should have gone to Merrick Garland, the SCOTUS nominee from the Obama Administration. So, he is like the banker in Monopoly.

WHERE’D YOU GET THE EXTRA FIFTIES FROM YOU CHEATING WHORE?

We have seen Trump’s plan to ‘repeal and replace Obamacare (Affordable Care Act)’ go down in flames. It was sold hard by Paul Ryan, speaker of the House. In laymen’s terms, if you wanted to apply for Obamacare, you could until January of 2020. It sounded like a great plan: you could still apply for healthcare, and require health insurance companies to cover pre-existing conditions, as well as young adults staying on their parent’s plan until he or she is 26 years old.

However, it was with flaws. First, the age-based tax credits aren't simply enough. If you were under 30, you get a tax credit of $2,000, and the tax credit DECREASES from $6,550 to $4,000 from ACA to AHCA, respectively. Second, the continuous coverage incentive was more like a penalty if you bought health insurance outside of a 63-day coverage gap, they would have to pay a 30% surcharge for OVER A YEAR, then return to standard rates. They treat Healthcare the same way Comcast charges for your service. Damn, only Comcast gouges you FOR ONLY YOUR FIRST MONTH of your cable service, then charge you a metric shit ton for something you need.

So far, according to factcheck.org, Trump has YET to introduce any of his legislative actions. So far, he has not introduced his new tax bracket plan, his education plan, his plan for affordable childcare and eldercare, his restoring community safety act, restore our military, and still has not “drained the swamp.” Minor details early on in the administration, yes. Let’s take a look at what his FIVE MAIN POINTS he has been able to introduce:

Repeal and replace Obamacare.

Status: FAIL (Dead on arrival)

Extreme vetting of all immigrants of regions where it is unsafe.

Status: FAIL (Blocked by courts)

Build the wall, and have Mexico pay for it.

Status: FAIL (Effort was seen)

Remove two million illegal immigrants from this country.

Status: Incomplete

Cut funding to Sanctuary Cities.

Status: see “Extreme vetting of all immigrants of regions where it is unsafe.”

Zero out of five.

Zero percent.

F.

Not exactly a report card for Putin to hang on the refrigerator.

Pretty soon, we will need to build a wall around Trump until he learns how government works.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
