GOP for Thee

Source; Sent from a friend....... our country has been put in danger from within!!!!!

Serious mistakes, ones that drag on and pile up, have accumulated a big past-due bill for America. But government glorifiers in all left-wing media and every public sector have camouflaged recognition of these mistakes, giving people denials and rationalizations instead.

For example, biden's inflation making grocery shopping stressful and putting home ownership out of reach for most younger Americans? Oh, no, that’s actually not happening. We’re in the era of triumphant bidenomics.

The ny times’ paul krugman declared that: “The war on inflation is over. We won, at very little cost.” Common sense says inflation is a problem for Americans who are not eating, not using gas or electricity, and not living under a roof. krugman demonstrated that an economist awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics can double as a clown.

Has biden’s foreign policy been creating one American humiliation after another, now risking American direct involvement in wars east and west? Don’t worry! The left-wing doesn’t see looming crises repeating the patterns of past ones. Frailty in the face of villainy is now a pretty olive branch.

Are U.S. taxpayers being forced to support surging millions of benefits-seeking illegal immigrants displacing low-wage Americans--IF those immigrants work, and IF they pay taxes--while many employable professionals wait long years to immigrate to America legally? Relax! The goal is more indentured voters for liberals/democrats, and that goal’s being achieved. A left-wing plutocracy doesn’t need a middle class.

What about left-wing/democrat-ruled cities’ crime waves fueled by prosecutors who refuse to prosecute repeat criminals? What crime waves!? george soros is financing that “social justice,” and as a far leftist multi-billionaire, former nazi and destroyer of Asian economies, he must know what he’s doing, right?

But once again many voters will probably be more worried about Trump than they are about the rot he campaigns against, more bothered by alarmism and mean tweets than by alarming realities. And as more people flee the failing under non-governing government and aggressively pardoned crime, many of them perversely bring their politics along with them to new homes. Why do so many of the people fleeing vote again for the ruinous politics they fled? Poor memory, poor education, poor thinking?

Prosperity, it seems, can breed ideological sociopathy. It's those who usually become the major figures in leftist activism, participating in multiple left-wing terrorist acts, or who go a long way with left-wing politics no matter how much it fails and how much it destroys. You might have noticed that with $33 trillion of ignored debt, government schools indoctrinating children in neo-marxist dogma, presidents who behave like geriatric teenagers, an economy tethered to Chinese communist autocracy, and repeat criminals put back on city streets to ply their trade.

America has a hard-to-defeat voting left-wing now. The Disaster Coalition. It’s a satisfied bloc of college-educated virtue posers, tenured government and education payrollers, the government-dependent couch-committed, scot-free shoplifters and their enablers, plus other people deficient in basic math, language, knowledge-acquiring skills. This broad population is difficult to beat politically.

We need a better model in favoring a:

1. federal government that prefers not to put every state and community at the mercy of as many know-it-all federal bureaucrats as possible

2. constitution written carefully by learned freethinkers who’d abandoned and rejected British royalty (as opposed to the neo-royalist disdainers of the constitution who’ve been gaining power over our past 75 years

3. economy focused on a productive private sector rather than the Venezuelan marxist economy destroyed by hugo chávez’s

4. non-socialist government prosecution of actual crimes rather than thought crimes

But thanks to shrewd maniplulating marketing by leftist bumper sticker marketers and the ego-driven distemper of a reality-TV guys.

But we can still vote and try the following to defeat  left-wing's Disaster Coalition:

 1. Point out that all liberals/democrats known to covet the 2024 presidential nomination have serious inadequacies in capacity or character. Just look at them. One is a life-long blithering dunce whose 1st presidential campaign (36 years ago!) ended because he was caught having delivered an impassioned autobiographical campaign speech that was actually the speech of a British politician. Not many people remember, but this man was a blithering dunce long before he began suffering from infirmity. Then there’s his VP, who’s gained fame for her cackling and baby talk. Then there’s the smiling, empty performer who, as Mayor of San Francisco and now Governor of California, has gone to great lengths to trash his state and appears to be a motorized mannequin. Then there’s the governor who cut his personal property taxes by removing toilets from a mansion, gave big vote-winning checks to Black churches, and now gobbles up Illinois’ resources (and much else). Then there’s...etc.

 2. Don’t nominate the only current-Republican politician who disturbs people with low-information but high-sensitivity to mean tweets, even if you admire his recent hostility to the left-wing party. A 2024 Trump vs. Name-Your-Leftist-Nitwit election would be the most substance-less, nation-roiling election since...well, since the last one.

 3. You can make the case for Ron DeSantis over Nikki Halley, Halley over Vivek Ramaswamy, Ramaswamy over DeSantis, or any other viable Republican candidate. But just review the streets and management of New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, and so on. Then take a long look at the left-wing/democrat candidate and use your imagination.

4. Recall why Reagan was so electable and admirable. Or, if you recall or care to research it, go back further to Eisenhower. You’ll find that those presidents provided general stability, progress, and confidence in America’s future. Neither was capable of such incompetence as, for instance, fueling ruinous inflation, then refueling it through a pseudonymous inflation reduction act.

That’s not so difficult.

UN and Hamas: Partners in Crime

Source; by Robert Williams December 4, 2023 at 5:00 am

  • To understand how the UN effectively runs the Hamas propaganda war, it is important to know that the UN, through its agency for Palestinian refugees, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), is effectively embedded with Hamas in the Gaza Strip...

  • "The UN has 13,000 employees in tiny Gaza. They know exactly what's going on... They all knew Hamas' terror infrastructure was in the hospital compound, where Israel wouldn't attack. They lied to the world for 16 years. To paint Israel as evil." — Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, November 16, 2023.

  • [T]he UN has sustained an incessant campaign, especially on social media, that accuses Israel of deliberately targeting schools, children, civilians, hospitals and healthcare workers. While those are protected from attack during war by international law, that protection does not apply to schools, hospitals and other civilian sites that are used for military purposes.

  • When Israel carried out an airstrike on an ambulance in northern Gaza, which was being used by Hamas terrorists, [UN Secretary-General António] Guterres expressed that he was "horrified" with Israel's action, while ignoring Hamas's war crimes. In practice, the UN and Hamas act as partners in crime.

  • Above all, the UN's transparent complicity with Hamas should convince the US, finally, that much of the UN is a destructive organization that prolongs wars, and needs immediately to have its funding decimated, and be reduced in importance to the corrupt relic that it is, deserving no place in this century. mail?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gatestoneinstitute.org%2Fpics%2F4826.jpg&t=1701704598&ymreqid=b16ac307-28b6-2bc8-1c7f-9b00f901fd00&sig=YY9zELODhhoZ8LGdI7uCyw--~D

    When a rocket fired by Palestinian Islamic Jihad exploded outside Gaza's Al-Ahli hospital, Hamas claimed within minutes that Israel had bombed the hospital and falsely asserted that hundreds of people had been killed there. The United Nations rushed to blame Israel, and UN Secretary-General António Guterres used his speech at the Belt and Road Summit in China to condemn Israel for the explosion.

    Since October 7, when Hamas terrorists invaded southern Israel and massacred at least 1,200 and kidnapped another 240 Israelis and people of other nationalities, the United Nations has been acting as the unofficial propaganda arm of the Iranian-backed Hamas terrorist organization.

    The propaganda campaign's main aim – besides smearing Israel – appears to be to build overwhelming international pressure on Israel to agree to an indefinite ceasefire , which will give Hamas the needed time to regroup and replenish to continue its terrorist activities and to avoid being eliminated by the Israeli Defense Forces.

    To understand how the UN effectively runs the Hamas propaganda war, it is important to know that the UN, through its agency for Palestinian refugees, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), is effectively embedded with Hamas in the Gaza Strip: it can be difficult to make any meaningful distinction between the two organizations. On October 7, in fact, as the Hamas massacre of civilians in Israel unfolded, UNRWA employees in Gaza celebrated. UN Watch wrote in a report last month:

    "As soon as news of the horrific slaughter broke, which was livestreamed on social media by some of the terrorists, United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff immediately celebrated and justified it on Facebook... UNRWA has been a breeding ground for Palestinian terrorists from its early days... The perpetrators of the 1972 Munich Olympic Massacre, in which 11 Israeli athletes were murdered... almost all were raised and educated in UNRWA schools... Likewise, Mohamed Deif, the commander of Hamas's Al Qassem Brigades who masterminded the October 7th massacre, was also educated in an UNRWA school."

    According to Associated Press:

    "From 2014-2020, U.N. agencies spent nearly $4.5 billion in Gaza, including $600 million in 2020 alone. More than 80% of that funding is channeled through the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, who make up three-fourths of Gaza's population. Some 280,000 children in Gaza attend schools run by UNRWA, which also provides health services and food aid."

    The UN, through UNRWA in Gaza, likely knows everything that happens there, including the terrorist infrastructure of the underground Hamas tunnels and their use of hospitals and ambulances. Yet throughout this war, the UN has done nothing but feign "horror and shock" at Israel's necessary measures against Hamas terrorists embedded within civilian society in Gaza. As the executive director of UN Watch, Hillel Neuer, pointed out:

    "The UN has 13,000 employees in tiny Gaza. They know exactly what's going on... They all knew Hamas' terror infrastructure was in the hospital compound, where Israel wouldn't attack. They lied to the world for 16 years. To paint Israel as evil."

    On October 24, UN Secretary-General António Guterres stooped to a new low when pushing a typical Hamas narrative of grievances. He said that the October 7 attacks "did not happen in a vacuum," thereby seemingly justifying the terrorist attacks. Meanwhile, the UN has not bothered in the least to address in concrete and horrifying detail what happened during the October 7 massacre – the mass rapes, the horrific torture, the ruthless murders and the kidnappings.

    This silence on what happened on October 7 is, sadly, in keeping with the UN's demonization of Israel around the clock. The UN invokes international humanitarian law – which Hamas, not Israel, is breaking by building military installations in protected civilian spaces (which, when used for military purposes become unprotected) and using civilians as human shields. Meanwhile, the UN never calls for Hamas to stop using its civilians as human shields to protect its weapons and show dead babies to the television cameras – to imply that their deaths were Israel's fault.

    Why are Gazan civilians not allowed to take shelter from aerial bombardments in Hamas's 300 km of underground tunnels? Why did the Israel Defense Forces have to protect the Gazans fleeing south for their lives -- as Israel had cautioned them to -- while Hamas tried at gunpoint to prevent them from leaving?

    Everything that the UN says and does regarding to Israel's military operations in Gaza turns Hamas's war crimes on their head -- to try to blame them on Israel. Meanwhile, the UN parrots as fact whatever outlandish claims Hamas produces, including Gazan casualty numbers, which oddly never include any mention of Hamas terrorists, but mostly women and children.

    When Hamas claimed on October 17 that Israel had bombed Gaza's Al-Ahli hospital, falsely asserting that hundreds of people had been killed, the UN rushed to blame Israel. Guterres used his speech at the Belt and Road Summit in China to condemn Israel for the explosion outside the hospital and to call for an immediate ceasefire, while Dennis Francis, president of the 78th session of the UN General Assembly announced that he was "shocked and horrified."

    On October 18, Israel published evidence showing that the strike on the hospital compound was a misfired rocket aimed at Israel and launched by Palestinian Islamic Jihad. The UN said nothing. Instead, the UN has sustained an incessant campaign, especially on social media, that accuses Israel of deliberately targeting schools, children, civilians, hospitals and healthcare workers. While those are protected from attack during war by international law, that protection does not apply to schools, hospitals and other civilian sites that are used for military purposes.

    Hamas' unlawful military use of hospitals, schools and other civilian sites was first exposed years ago. Former US President Bill Clinton spoke about it in 2016. "When Hamas chooses to rocket Israel, it insinuates itself into hospitals and into schools," he said.

    NATO published a report in 2019, which bluntly stated:

    "Hamas, an Islamist militant group and the de facto governing authority of the Gaza Strip, has been using human shields in conflicts with Israel since 2007. According to the Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC), the war crime of using human shields encompasses "utilizing the presence of a civilian or other protected person to render certain points, areas, or military forces immune from military operations." Hamas has launched rockets, positioned military-related infrastructure-hubs and routes, and engaged the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) from, or in proximity to, residential and commercial areas.

    "The strategic logic of human shields has two components. It is based on an awareness of Israel's desire to minimise collateral damage, and of Western public opinion's sensitivity towards civilian casualties. If the IDF uses lethal force and causes an increase in civilian casualties, Hamas can utilise that as a lawfare tool: it can accuse Israel of committing war crimes, which could result in the imposition of a wide array of sanctions. Alternatively, if the IDF limits its use of military force in Gaza to avoid collateral damage, Hamas will be less susceptible to Israeli attacks, and thereby able to protect its assets while continuing to fight."

    When Israel carried out an airstrike on an ambulance in northern Gaza, which was being used by Hamas terrorists, Guterres expressed that he was "horrified" with Israel's action, while ignoring Hamas's war crimes. In practice, the UN and Hamas act as partners in crime.

    A Hamas terrorist who participated in the October 7 mass-murder of Israelis and was captured, said during a recent interrogation intercepted by Israel:

    "Al-Qassam [the Hamas military wing] has its own ambulances, some of which are located on the military base. The appearance of the ambulances is similar to the civilian ambulances so that they will not arouse suspicion or be bombed by Israel."

    Another captured Hamas terrorist said:

    "During combat, the ambulances are used, among other things, to evacuate fighters, commanders and operatives. They also transport food, cargo and weapons in them because that is the safest way to transport them."

    Yet another captured terrorist said that ambulances were useful to transport "important people" such as Hamas commanders because "the Jews don't attack ambulances."

    When Israel published evidence of the Hamas military command center beneath Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, World Health Organization Director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who covered up the transmissibility of the COVID-19 pandemic for China and is accused of trying to cover up three cholera epidemics in Ethiopia, immediately castigated Israel.

    UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator Martin Griffiths, wrote:

    "I'm appalled by reports of military raids in Al Shifa hospital in #Gaza. The protection of newborns, patients, medical staff and all civilians must override all other concerns. Hospitals are not battlegrounds."

    While these high-ranking UN officials disingenuously feign ignorance and expect the public to believe that they knew nothing about the Hamas base in Al-Shifa Hospital, foreign doctors and journalists have apparently been aware of it for years.

    An unnamed British doctor, who worked at Al-Shifa hospital three years ago, recently said in a television interview:

    "The main point was, when I was first asked to work there [at Al-Shifa], I was told there was a part of the hospital I was not to go near, and if I did, I'd be in danger of being shot... implicit was that it was being used for non-medical purposes... I stayed away, but I saw a few dodgy looking non-medical characters going in and out all the time. It was a ward leading to a basement."

    A journalist from Italy related that in 2009, upon arriving in Al-Shifa Hospital to interview wounded members of Fatah, he came almost face to face with the Hamas command and control center beneath the hospital:

    "Shifa is a very large compound. I got lost inside it, and at some point I ended up on an underground floor, and I found myself in front of two armed Hamas men in military attire, who told me to get out. I got the impression they were guarding a security door that gave access to their underground infrastructure. Several Palestinian sources I spoke with later on confirmed that Hamas's command and control center was located under Shifa Hospital and that [Hamas leader] Ismail Haniyeh had been hiding there throughout the duration of Operation Cast Lead."

    It is also likely that the UN, with its 13,000 employees in Gaza, knew, as did the nurses and doctors at Al-Shifa Hospital, that Israeli hostages were being held at Al-Shifa. Israel recently revealed that Hamas terrorists brought hostages there in broad daylight on October 7, with healthcare staff even holding doors open for the terrorists.

    The UN's pretend show of "shock and horror" that Israel is eliminating its Hamas partner in Gaza is too transparent for anyone to take seriously, although the international mainstream media certainly does, parroting whatever Hamas and the UN allege as facts.

    Above all, the UN's transparent complicity with Hamas should convince the US, finally, that much of the UN is a destructive organization that prolongs wars, and needs immediately to have its funding decimated, and be reduced in importance to the corrupt relic that it is, deserving no place in this century.

Federal Court Delivers Historic Decision – This Ruling Is Terrible News for Illegals

Since 2021, the United States has struggled with a massive influx of illegal immigration. An estimated 5 million migrants have entered the country illegally.

Border states have become overwhelmed, claiming the federal government refuses to help.

Some states are taking matters into their own hands. They are even looking for ways to deport the most dangerous of these border jumpers. And a new federal court ruling could eliminate a major hurdle.

From Just the News:
A panel of the Ninth Circuit Court ruled Miranda rights don’t apply to warrant-backed civil immigration arrests, holding up an order to deport a Mexican citizen who had argued he was coerced into admitting his illegal status under an administrative warrant. Miranda rights are the formal warning given by law enforcement to individuals in custody of their right to silence and an attorney.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decided that Miranda rights are not applicable to arrests involving illegal immigrants. A Mexican citizen tried to get out of a deportation order, claiming he was coerced into admitting his illegal status while being questioned by law enforcement.

But the court decided that, because he was facing a “civil deportation proceeding” and not a “criminal trial,” the Miranda warnings do not apply.

Part of the Miranda rights read to people being arrested is that they have the right not to speak and can ask for an attorney. But it is a question of whether a non-citizen, especially one in the country illegally, has access to those rights.

In the case of deportation hearings, the court ruled an illegal immigrant does not. This can pave the way for states to take strong action in apprehending and deporting border jumpers.

It is common for immigration activists to provide legal protection to aliens who came to the U.S. illegally. These lawyers have long used the legal system to help ensure border jumpers can stay in the U.S., often finding loopholes to protect them.

This ruling could prevent these activists from exploiting the legal system for the interests of outsiders.

States like Texas have been fighting to find ways of protecting the border, absent the support of the federal government. A Supreme Court ruling prohibits state governments from deporting illegal aliens. But rulings like this might open a path for border states to better protect their residents.

Key Takeaways:

  • A federal court ruled against an illegal alien fighting a civil deportation order.
  • The court decided that the Miranda rights did not have to be read for the proceedings.
  • This comes as millions of illegal aliens entered the country since 2021.
