Fun Times

Anyone ever had hernia surgery? Well, just a little over 24 hours from a lower inguinal hernia surgery and honestly wasn't ready for this type of recovery. Oh well, too late now! I'm gonna have to grit this one out and dig deep. In the past, I've had surgeries and this one definitely tops the charts for pain. Again, too late now! Had an issue with the pharmacy yesterday (don't really care to get into it) and haven't  felt comfortable since being home. Medication is brutal, and thoughts are scattered! FUN TIMES!

Trump and Mexican American Border

Wednesday, President Trump signed a new executive directive to build a wall at the Mexican/American border. Trump has always maintained transparency with his objective to seal the borders and is following through with his promise. This is Trump's latest effort to discourage illegal immigration and has expressed his intent to immediately commence construction. Trump also intends to have Mexico pay back the US 100% for the costs of the wall.

Trump's signs an executive order and blocks all refugees worldwide from entering the US for the next 120 days. Simultaneously, part of this order suspends entry from all seven predominantly Muslim countries that are linked to terrorism for 90 days; Iraq, Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia, and Yemen. The primary cause cited for this recent executive order is the ongoing threat of radical Islamic terrorists entering our country. Trump made it clear, he has no plans on backing down from the issue, and the order imposes additional screening to those applying for admission into the US.

          President Trump has made it clear that he has no plans in honoring China or the "One-China Policy" which was an agreement between the US and China that the US cut off all diplomatic relations with Taiwan back in 1979. Furthermore, recently appointed Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson expressed during his confirmation hearing that the US would block China's access to the disputed Asian Islands in an effort to send China a message in shutting down China's military expansion. However, it looks like China is standing its ground with the prospect of fortifying the disputed islands in the South China Sea per Lu Kang's comments, a senior official with the Chinese Foreign Ministry, to NBC news in an exclusive interview on Tuesday that China views this as China's Sovereign territory.
