THE DONALDS FIRST DAY IN OFFICE
Should help you to start your day.

1. President Donald Trump and Vice President Marco Rubio:
are sworn into office.

2. In a rare event on inauguration day, Congress
convenes for an emergency meeting to repeal the
illegal and unconstitutional Socialist healthcare
farce known as Obamacare. The new Director of
Health and Social Services Dr. Ben Carson announces
that an independent group of healthcare management
professionals is hired to handle healthcare services for
poor and low income people. They are also assigned the
duty of eliminating Medicare and Medicaid fraud.
Government’s costs for public healthcare are reduced by 90%.
Healthcare insurance premiums for working Americans are
reduced by 50%. The move saves billions of taxpayer paid
dollars. Healthcare service in the U.S improves 100%.

3. Newly appointed Department of Homeland
Security Chief Ted Cruz announces the immediate
deployment of troops to the U.S. Mexico border
to control illegal immigration and the immediate
deportation of illegals with criminal records or
links to terrorist groups. New bio-encrypted Social
Security IDs are required by every American citizen.
Birthright is abolished. All immigration from countries
that represent a threat to the safety of American citizens
is terminated indefinitely. The move saves American
taxpayers billions of dollars. Several prisons are closed.

4. Newly appointed Secretary of Business and
Economic Development Carly Fiorina eliminates
more than half of the Government agencies
operating under the Obama administration
saving taxpayers billions of dollars. Stocks rise
100%.

5. Newly appointed Director of Government
Finance Rand Paul announces the abolition of
the IRS and displays a copy of the new Federal
Tax Return form. It consists of one page. The
instructions consist of two pages. The Federal
Reserve is audited. The move saves American
Taxpayers billions of dollars and increases tax
revenue.

6. Hillary Clinton is in prison, where she belongs.
Her cell is directly across from Jesse Jackson and
Al Sharpton who are serving time for "Hate
Crimes". She bitches at them constantly from
behind the bars of her cell in what some call cruel
and unusual punishment.

7. Bernie Sanders is in the nuthouse, where he
belongs. His room is directly across from Nancy
Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Chris Matthews
and Al Franken. They meet for tea every day at
10 AM and discuss the success and benefits
of Communism and Socialism throughout the world.
They also wonder when the "Mothership" is going
to pick them up and return them to their home planets.

8. Windows 12 is released. It is designed for humans,
doesn’t try to satisfy the needs of every person on
the planet, doesn’t require a degree in nuclear
physics to operate and looks just like Windows 7
except it is easier to use.

9. Barack Obama flees the United States under
cover of darkness and returns to his homeland
of Kenya before his trial for treason begins. He
deplanes on a remote jungle airstrip. It was reported
that he was last seen wandering through the jungle
singing “Hakuna Matata” with a chimp named Commie.

10. Oscar Meyer announces the introduction of a
new cholesterol and fat free pepperoni that tastes
just like regular pepperoni.

11. Not to be outdone, Kraft Foods announces the
introduction of several varieties of cholesterol and
fat free cheeses that taste just like regular cheese.

12. A committee is not established to determine
what is causing global cooling. Billions of taxpayer
dollars are saved.

13. Dead people are no longer allowed to vote in
Chicago, a huge blow for the Democrat Party in the
State of Illinois.

And this my friends constitutes THE PERFECT DAY!

A Country Club golf pro was riding a Nun around in a caddy car pointing out the game. The Nun pointed to a devise on a post? That's where the men wash their balls. Nun-"what hardy men!"

Men Never Learn!

A woman ran a red traffic light and crashed into a man's car.
Both of their cars are demolished but amazingly neither of them was hurt.
After they crawled out of their cars, the woman said; "Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing left, but fortunately we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days."
The man replied," I agree with you completely. This must be a sign from God!"
The woman continued, "And look at this, here's another miracle. My car is completely demolished, but my bottle of 75 year old scotch didn't break. Surely God meant for us to drink this vintage delicacy and celebrate our good fortune."
Then she handed the bottle to the man.
The man nods his head in agreement, opened it, drank half the bottle and then handed it back to the woman.
The woman took the bottle, immediately put the cap back on, and handed it back to the man.
The man asks, "Aren't you having any?"
She replies, "Nah. I think I'll just wait for the police."
Adam ate the apple, too!

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

Pirated from another site:
An attractive young woman on a flight from Ireland asked the Priest beside her, 'Father, may I ask a favor?'
'Of course child. What may I do for you?'
'Well, I bought my mother an expensive hair dryer for her birthday. It is unopened but well over the Customs limits and I'm afraid they'll confiscate it. Is there any way you could carry it through customs for me? Hide it under your robes perhaps?'
'I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you, I will not lie.'
'With your honest face, Father, no one will question you.'
When they got to Customs, she let the priest go first. The official asked, 'Father, do you have anything to declare?'
'From the top of my head down to my waist I have nothing to declare.'
The official thought this answer strange, so asked, 'And what do you have to declare from your waist to the floor?'
'I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is, to date, unused.'
Roaring with laughter, the official said, 'Go ahead, Father. Next please!'

One day a man was walking along the beach when he tripped over a lamp. He turned around and kicked the lamp out of anger. A few seconds later, a genie popped out of the lamp, but the genie was angry that the man had kicked his lamp.

Reluctantly, the genie said, "Even though you kicked me, I still have to give you three wishes. However, because of what you did I will also give twice what you wish for to the person you hate the most: your boss."

Even with this condition attached the man readily agreed and made his first wish. "I want lots of money," he said. Instantly 50 million dollars appeared in the man's bank account and 100 million appeared in his boss' account.

For his second wish, the man wished for a couple of sports cars. Instantly a Lamborghini and a Bugatti appeared. At the same time outside his boss' house appeared two of each car.

While the man drooled over his new sports cars the genie said, "You have one wish left. You should choose carefully." The man thought for a moment then replied, "I've always wanted to donate a kidney..."

::woot:: An elderly couple walks into a diner for lunch. As they set at the counter they watch the cook take a big ball of hamburger meat and put it under his arm and flaten it out and then put it on the grill. The old lady asks the counter man isn't that a little unsanitary? The counter man says oh no, you should see how he makes donuts!

At a senior center in Florida, a group of senior citizens were sitting around talking about their aches and pains.
"My arms are so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.
"I know what you mean. My cataracts are so bad I can't even see my coffee," replied another.
"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a third.
"My blood pressure pills make me dizzy," another contributed.
"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man.
Then there was a short moment of silence.
"Thank God we can all still drive," said one woman cheerfully.
