Members of the Las Vegas Asian Chamber of Commerce shared stories of business expansion, bonuses for their workers and stable revenue at a Tuesday afternoon roundtable discussion co-hosted by the Nevada Republican Party and President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign. The discussion was led by former Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt, who said it would be the first of many meetings across the state designed to flesh out the stories of economic prosperity under the president. He said Nevada has seen 117,000 new jobs created and a record-low unemployment rate since Trump took office.“The president has cut more regulations the last few years than any president has ever cut in this period of time, and I think we’re all grateful for that,” Laxalt told the chamber members. Jan-Ie Low, owner of SATAY Thai Bistro & Bar, said tax cuts and deregulation under the Trump administration have allowed her to hire painters and electricians rather than asking her brother to find makeshift fixes when something breaks at the restaurant. She’s been able to hire more employees and offer bonuses for the first time since sinking her 401(k) into the small business venture in 2005. Before Trump, she said, the business struggled just to make payroll — let alone turn a profit. Dr. Sonny Ho started his chiropractic practice in 1999 and struggled through lean years until recently. “The last three years have been my best ever,” Ho told the group. The Republican tax plan — specifically its qualified business income deduction and real estate breaks — have even allowed Ho to open a second office. Wong, a retired McDonald’s franchise owner, said he eventually had to sell his restaurants in order
to protect the retirement fund he used to buy them in 2007. He said the Affordable Care Act and related regulations alone led to $45,000 in additional annual costs per restaurant.In an interview after the event, Chamber President Sonny Vinuya said the discussion was not an endorsement of the president but rather an opportunity to share his members’ successes and relay the facts.Laxalt told the Review-Journal that Trump has kept his promises of higher pay and better jobs for Nevadans. He said both Trump and Vice President Mike Pence will visit the state several times in the coming year to help combat what he said was the notion spread by scores of Democratic
presidential hopefuls that the current administration is not helping working people.
July 24, Democrats Have Subpoenaed Robert Mueller To Testify DESPITE THE SPECIAL COUNSEL AND DOJ FINDING NO COLLUSION AND NO OBSTRUCTION, DEMOCRATS ARE CONTINUING THEIR THEATRICS BY CALLING ROBERT MUELLER TO TESTIFY ON THE RUSSIA INVESTIGATION On July 24, Special Counsel Robert Mueller will testify before the House Intelligence and Judiciary Committees concerning the Russia investigation despite Democrats openly admitting Mueller will not reveal any new “dramatic information.” In April 2019, Special Counsel Robert Mueller released the results of his two-year investigation into Russia’s election interference and has found that the Trump campaign did not coordinate or conspire with the Russian government in its election-interference activities.Based off the evidence provided by the Special Counsel’s Office, the Department of Justice

cleared the President of any wrongdoing concerning allegations of obstruction of justice. The White House fully cooperated with the Special Counsel’s investigation and provided “unfettered” access to campaign and White House documents and directed senior aides to testify freely. The Mueller investigation was exhaustive and conclusive, lasted 675 days and is estimated to have cost almost 40 million dollars. 0% percent of American voters said the Russia investigation was the most important issue to their vote in 2020. WHILE DEMOCRATS CONTINUE THEIR WITCH HUNT, THEY IGNORE THE FACT THAT THE OBAMA/BIDEN ADMINISTRATION ALLOWED RUSSIA TO ENGAGE IN A “SWEEPING AND SYSTEMIC” INTERFERENCE CAMPAIGN IN THE UNITED STATES Beginning in 2014, the Russian government engaged in a “sweeping and systemic” interference campaign in the United States through the government sponsored Internet Research Agency and the Russian Army Main Intelligence Directorate, the GRU.In February 2014, an intelligence source informed the Obama/Biden Administration that Russia was planning a wide-ranging campaign to attack Western institutions. Despite two-years of advance knowledge, the Obama/Biden Administration issued just a public warning to Russian President Vladimir Putin and only “symbolic” sanctions for Russia’s cyber meddling. Democrats and Obama Administration officials agreed that the Obama/Biden Administration “choked” in its handling of the Russian hacking. In the past, Biden pushed for the Obama Administration’s disastrous Russia “reset” policy and personally sought to cozy up to Vladimir Putin.
