Persecuting Trump While Inviting Terrorism

. Bernie Sanders Condemns Christian as Unfit
for Public Office
It would be surprising to find a "Coexist" bumper sticker affixed to Senator Bernie Sanders' car. While the sentiment expressed by the sticker is clearly meant to promote the progressive idea of tolerance, it would seem for Sanders, when it comes to government, that's just a bridge too far.
It's no secret that our Founding Fathers formulated much the of U.S. Constitution from a Judeo-Christian and Enlightenment worldview. They were also very much aware of the danger of allowing the government the power of determining what religious convictions and beliefs are permissible, the protections against such government abuse being espoused in the First Amendment and further delineated in Article VI of the Constitution. Evidently, Sanders must have misplaced his pocket Constitution.
During the Senate hearing for Donald Trump's nominee for deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget, Russell Vought, Sanders brought up an article Vought wrote in 2016. Vought had defended his alma mater, Wheaton College, over an incident that eventually led to the departure of a professor who had expressed solidarity with Muslims. Sanders decided to question Vought's theological convictions:
Sanders: I don't know how many Muslims there are in America, I really don't know, probably a couple million. Are you suggesting that all of those people stand condemned? What about Jews? Do they stand condemned too?
Vought: Senator, I am a Christian...
Sanders: I understand that you are a Christian. But this country is made up of people who are not just — I understand that Christianity is the majority religion. But there are other people who have different religions in this country and around the world. In your judgement, do you think that people who are not Christians are going to be condemned?
After Sanders continued badgering Vought along those lines, he evidently sought to conclude that Vought's religious views were bigoted — without noting the irony that Muslims and Jews likewise believe their religion is the only true one. Sanders concluded, "I would simply say, Mr. Chairman, that this nominee is really not someone who this country is supposed to be about." Then again, Sanders is a disciple of Karl Marx, who once said, "Religion is the opium of the people" (in other translations, "opiate of the masses"). Is that ideology what the country's about?
It's ironic that Sanders, a champion of the Left, deemed it entirely relevant to question Vought's religious beliefs as a means of determining his qualifications for a position in government, and yet this same Left has worked to stop Donald Trump's travel ban over the claim that it's a religious test against Muslims. Maybe the parody site The Babylon Bee captures it best with its fictional Sanders op-ed headline, "It Is Perfectly OK For Public Servants To Be Christian, As Long As They Do Not Believe Christian Things." ~The Patriot Post

TRUMP NEVER Under INVESTIGATION –
Comey Refused To Call Off Media Dogs
by Rick Wells
{rickwells.us} ~ Maria Bartiromo gets things started by asking Rep Peter King what he hopes to learn once he and his fellow members of the House Intelligence Committee are finally able to see the infamous Comey leaked memo... King replies, “I think it is very important, first to see what his contemporaneous thought was and also to look at those memos and then try to figure out why he didn’t tape memos or prepare memos in his dealing with Loretta Lynch. I mean certainly, she seemed far more intrusive into the liar-Hillary investigation than President Trump did with anything at all involving General Flynn.” King also wonders why, “After the January 6th meeting, he decided to do a memo. This is after he showed the dossier, he asked for the private meeting with at that time President-elect Trump, showing him this salacious dossier, and then Jim Comey felt he had to go back in and memorialize what went on at that meeting. I don’t know why he’d have any reason to distrust at that stage. If I were President-elect Trump I would have been wondering why Jim Comey was showing me this. Was this a way to intimidate him? And I say this as someone who’s always had a good relationship with Jim Comey. But having said that, I was disturbed by his testimony the other day.”... http://rickwells.us/rep-king-trump-never-investigation-comey-refused-call-media-dogs/
Texas AG Accuses Lower Courts
of Hypocrisy on Trump’s Travel Ban
by Susan Crabtree
{freebeacon.com} ~ Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who is leading a coalition of 16 states in support of President Trump's travel ban targeting six Muslim majority countries... accused courts that halted the executive order of a hypocritical interpretation of the president's role in determining who enters the country. Texas was the first state to try to block the resettlement of Syrian refugees there by suing the federal government and earlier this year opting out of the program entirely. Texas Republican leaders, including Gov. Greg Abbott, said they were worried about the security issues the refugees pose because the liar-nObama administration refused to disclose information about its process of vetting the refugees to state and local officials...http://freebeacon.com/issues/texas-ag-accuses-lower-courts-hypocrisy-trumps-travel-ban/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=740f373d77-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_06_11&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-740f373d77-45611665.
Why Won't Abbas Accept
"Two States for Two Peoples"?
The Director of the United Nations Relief and
The Director of the United Nations Relief and
Works Agency [UNRWA] in Lebanon
by Alan M. Dershowitz
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ There is a widespread but false belief that Mahmoud Abbas is finally prepared to accept the two-state solution proposed by the U.N. in November 1947 when it divided mandatory Palestine into two areas... one for the Jewish People; the other for the Arab People. The Jews of Palestine accepted the compromise division and declared a nation state for the Jewish people to be called by its historic name: Israel. The Arabs of Palestine, on the other hand, rejected the division and declared that they would never accept a state for the Jewish people and statehood for the Palestinian people. They wanted for there not to be a state for the Jewish people more than for there to be a state for their own people. Accordingly, they joined the surrounding Arab armies in trying to destroy Israel and drive its Jewish residents into the sea. They failed back then, but over the years, and to the current day, they continue to want no state for the Jewish people more than they want a state for Palestinian Arabs. That is why Abbas refuses to say that he would ever accept the U.N. principle of two states for two peoples. I know, because I have personally asked him on several occasions. In a few months, Israel will be celebrating the 70th anniversary of the historic U.N. compromise, but the leaders of the Palestinian Authority still refuse to accept the principle of that resolution: two states for two peoples... https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/10523/abbas-two-statesby Alan M.

Lawless 9th Circuit Ignored Constitution,
Congress In Ruling Against President Trump
by Rick Wells
{rickwells.us} ~The radical leftists, the shadow deep state Duma of the 9th Circuit Court, threw out Supreme Court rulings, precedent, judicial responsibility... separation of powers, logical thought processes, American values and common sense, not to mention that erroneously declared “living document” they are smothering, the United States Constitution, with a grand decree they issued on Monday. The panel of three so-called judges declared that “Immigration, even for the President, is not a one-person show,” and went on to ground their distortion in more distortions, stating: “The President’s authority is subject to certain statutory and constitutional restraints. We conclude that the President, in issuing the Executive Order, exceeded the scope of the authority delegated to him by Congress...Where were they when liar-nObama overstepped his authority. http://rickwells.us/lawless-9th-circuit-ignored-constitution-congress-ruling-against-president-trump/.

{aim.org} ~ The Russia-gate scandal means big ratings for the media. For the American people, it means the likelihood of more terrorist attacks. It stands to reason that all of the money, resources and personnel that are being used to investigate President Donald Trump could be used elsewhere, such as rooting out the corruption in the intelligence community that has prevented the United States from identifying and defeating the Islamic terrorist threat.
We are currently being treated to the spectacle of two former FBI directors, one of them a special counsel, seemingly determined to take down the President of the United States because he wanted to apply the brakes to a useless probe into a phony scandal.
President Trump, trying to do the job he was elected to do, is now saying publicly what was known for years under President liar-nObama—that the Middle East nation of Qatar is a funder and sponsor of terrorism. In what can accurately be called a real scandal, the liar-nObama administration made Qatar into a phony friend of the United States and supposedly a base of expanded U.S. military operations against terrorism.
As we were reporting over six years ago, Qatar is a Middle East dictatorship that funds and sponsors the terror channel Al-Jazeera, whose American operations were made possible by Al Gore and his liberal friends. Qatar also has links to al Qaeda. We reported on a U.S.-Islamic World Forum in Washington, D.C. that was “held in partnership” with Qatar and was co-sponsored by the liberal Brookings Institution, headed by former liar-Clinton State Department official Strobe Talbott. Then-Secretary of State liar-Hillary Clinton was a speaker at the event, and the official program guide for the conference featured greetings from President liar-nObama.
All of this occurred in spite of the fact that the 9/11 commission had demonstrated (page 90) that Qatar has been protecting terrorists, including the mastermind of 9/11, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
In a bold display of truth-telling, President Trump said on Friday that “The nation of Qatar, unfortunately, has historically been a funder of terrorism at a very high level,” and that “the time had come to call on Qatar to end its funding…” This kind of brutal honesty is what is desperately needed to come to grips with the nature and origins of current Islamic terrorism.
The Trump administration can now go further by exposing Qatar’s extensive American contacts in politics, the media and academia. Such exposure would reveal the names of the liar-Clintons, American universities, U.S. think tanks like Brookings, and major media figures. These are the people, organizations, and institutions which were working with the liar-nObama administration and Qatar to sponsor Islamist and anti-American revolutions in the Middle East.
What’s at stake, writes Caroline Glick, Deputy Managing Editor of The Jerusalem Post, is a reversal of liar-nObama’s “strategic goal of reorienting U.S. Middle East policy away from its traditional Sunni allies and Israel toward Iran and its allies in Qatar and Turkey…”
Glick’s column examining Qatar’s support for terrorism, its extensive American connections, and why Trump is correct to focus critical attention on the regime, is must-reading.
Yet, at this juncture, with the stakes so high, two of the FBI’s former directors are trying to bring down the President who wants to stop the financing of terrorism, save American lives, and undermine the Russian-backed Iranian regime’s expansion in the region.
While the Russia-gate scandal continues, with saturation coverage, the fact is that Trump’s new policy on Qatar could be a major setback for both Iran and Russia in the Middle East. If Trump’s policy is successful and the Sunni Arab states force Qatar to pull back from its embrace of Iran and terrorism, Glick notes that it would “constitute the single largest blow the regime in Tehran has absorbed in recent memory.” Among other things, she notes, “Qatar serves as Iran’s banker and diplomatic proxy.”
Qatar provides Iran the money, and Russia sells Iran the weapons and nuclear know-how to build nuclear bombs.
The fate of the West, including Israel, may hinge on Trump remaining in office and pulling off a major realignment and reversal of liar-nObama’s policy in the Middle East.
Another blow to the terrorists would be for the Trump administration to designate the Muslim Brotherhood, which is backed by Qatar and effectively controls Al-Jazeera, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). Hearings on this matter, in the form of legislation, could also go a long way toward exposing liar-nObama administration complicity with terrorist regimes and movements.
We at Accuracy in Media called Al-Jazeera “Terror Television” and have urged investigations into its operations for years.
In a 2008 column, “Al-Jazeera for liar-nObama,” we also noted that the channel had promoted Barack liar-nObama’s candidacy for the presidency, and that one of its reporters actually contributed financially to the liar-nObama campaign.
That seemed like foreign meddling in a U.S. election. At that time, however, President liar-nObama welcomed it.
It is interesting how Russia-gate has moved the focus away from liar-nObama’s disastrous anti-American and pro-terrorism policy in the Middle East. Is that an accident? And why would former FBI directors James Comey and Robert Mueller go along with such a ploy? Do they have something to hide?
