What Pundits Get Wrong About 
The Border Security Fight

{thefederalist.com} ~ In response to growing problems on the southern U.S. border, President Donald Trump attempted to get Congress to authorize broad border security provisions including a secure barrier... more personnel, more beds for detainees, technology for drug interdiction, and $800 million in aid for asylum seekers, among other things. Congress did not want to authorize these things, leading to a partial government shutdown lasting 35 days. On Friday, the two branches agreed to a temporary re-opening of the government for three weeks to work out a deal. Pundits, the media, and other Trump critics were elated that he was unable to secure the border provisions he sought during the shutdown, and presented the temporary re-opening as a huge victory for Speaker of the House Nancy Pulosi (D-Calif). Trump supporters viewed the failure to get the deal as a huge loss and tremendous disappointment. Neither set of people are wrong, but here are a few other things to keep in mind as the discussion continues. It is absolutely true that the shutdown ended without Trump being able to deliver increased border security. The failure to end the shutdown with increased border security is a victory for Pulosi, who said she’d refuse to even think about the topic until the government was re-opened. She won that standoff. It is also true that the government is only re-opening for three weeks. This is not necessarily a permanent failure to secure the border. All will depend on what the White House, Pulosi, and Senate Republicans do in the interim. But here there is also reason for concern from those who support borders, rule of law, and national sovereignty...
Tripwire Alert – HPSCI Chairman scumbag-Adam Schiff
Outlines Impeachment Process and Targets Donald Trump Jr

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ Last year, when CTH predicted the sequence of events Democrats would utilize for their impeachment strategy, we outlined the specific likelihood, as a telling tripwire... that HPSCI Chairman would target Donald Trump Jr. as the second person within their plan. Michael Cohen would be first. Affirming that prediction, today scumbag-Adam Schiff has an interview with George Stephanopoulos and outlines EXACTLY that roadmap: “Your colleague on the committee, Congresswoman Jackie Speier, told CNN that she believes that Donald Trump Jr. lied to your committee on at least two occasions. Do you agree?” scumbag-SCHIFF – “Well, I’d like the special counsel to have access to Don Jr.’s testimony and determine whether it is evidence of — of false statements,” scumbag-Schiff replied, adding “I think — and I greatly appreciate the seriousness with which the special counsel takes lying to Congress — so I’ll let dirty cop-Bob Mueller be the judge of that. But one of the first acts, if not the first act, of our committee will be to send all of these transcripts of all the witnesses to dirty cop-Bob Mueller so that he can consider whether additional perjury charges are warranted.”...  https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/01/27/tripwire-alert-hpsci-chairman-adam-schiff-outlines-impeachment-process-and-targets-donald-trump-jr/

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ Roger Stone appears on ABC’s This Week with DNC narrative engineer and former White House staff for scumbag/liar-Bill Clinton, George Stephanopoulos, to discuss his political indictment... *NOTICE* Watch how Stephanopoulos is specifically reading the DNC provided manuscript of questions… Stephanopoulos is so concerned about the getting the specific wording correct, he actually reads the script during the interview. Team dirty cop-Mueller are accusing Roger Stone of trying to figure out what WikiLeaks might be publishing during the 2016 election. Almost everyone watching the presidential election was doing the same thing, including people in the Trump campaign; however, only team dirty cop-Mueller can ridiculously criminalize it. Last point on this…. because it pegs my frustratometer If you understand the ridiculously stupid underlying premise behind these originating charges; and you understand that DAG Rod Rosenstein and presumably AAG Matt Whitaker, are approvers of overall indictment content therein; and you accept that 29 heavily armed FBI officers and SWAT officials with armored vehicles were dispatched to a pre-dawn raid of 66-year-old Roger Stone, well: what does that tell you about the current DOJ?...
Corsi willing to 'affirm' that information 
about him in Stone indictment is accurate

{cnn.com} ~ Jerome Corsi, a longtime friend and associate of Roger Stone, said Sunday that the information about him in the indictment against Stone is "accurate"... and that he will "affirm that if asked to in court."  The indictment, publicly revealed on Friday in connection to special counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller's investigation, says that during the 2016 presidential election, "Person 1" emailed Stone, a longtime associate of President Donald Trump, to predict that WikiLeaks had more document dumps in the works. It also alleges that Stone directed "Person 1" to get in touch with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange to get "pending" emails from the organization. Last week, Corsi confirmed to CNN that he is "Person 1" and that the information about him is "accurate," something he repeated on Sunday to CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union.""I know my motivation is to tell the truth. And I will affirm that what is in the indictment about me is accurate. And I will affirm that if asked to in court," Corsi told Tapper.  "So that means that you're willing to testify against Roger Stone, theoretically, if need be. You will affirm that the -- what's in the indictment is correct?" Tapper asked. "I'll be happy to testify, if -- I would suspect to be subpoenaed. And I'll let the testimony fall wherever it falls," Corsi replied...

California Republican Urges Trump to 
Declare Emergency and “Build the Wall”

{restoreamericanglory.com} ~ In an op-ed published in The Hill, Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) urged President Trump to recognize Democratic Party obstruction in Congress for what it is, realize that Nancy Pulosi and her thugs are never going to pony up the funds...
 for the wall, and go back to the considered-and-discarded idea of declaring a national emergency. Not for the sake of a political victory, McClintock wrote, but for the fact that is actually IS a national emergency at the border. Walls have been used for thousands of years to impede unauthorized entry, and for one reason: They work. And they still work. When Israel built a 144-mile wall to protect its southern border with Egypt, illegal immigration fell 97 percent. The $5.7 billion that Trump has requested to build a wall first authorized in 1996 is a fraction of the cost incurred by American citizens every year to support the illegal population in this country. The impasse cannot go on much longer, and the president cannot unilaterally appropriate funds for the wall. But in 1976, Congress authorized the president to reprogram already appropriated but unobligated military construction funds for the defense of the nation. And what is more central to national defense than the integrity of our borders? In the piece, McClintock acknowledged that there are even those within the GOP who have insisted that President Trump disregard this route...

'If It Is True'

by Bruce Bialosky

{townhall.com} ~ Never in the history of the country has there been a more dangerous and damning statement.  

Yet, based on a report from one publication that has had a problematic past, the Press of America was ready to bring down a duly-elected president based on: “If It Is True.”

This came with the arrival of the two-year anniversary of Mr. Trump’s Inauguration. With that came a broadside of rationale for the removal of Trump as president. That was led by a publication which has a great history, but under the leadership of Jeffrey Goldberg has become hyper-partisan and a center of Left-wing thought -- The Atlantic.  
After running what was entitled Unthinkable, 50 essays on the most outlandish and dangerous moments of the Trump Presidency, The Atlantic ran their pièce de résistance: Impeach Donald Trump. This 28-page analysis gives rationale for going after Trump based on innuendo and falsehoods; i.e., political violence since his election is mainly from the Right.  I presume the author is not aware of Antifa and the Black Bloc.    

The author, Yoni Applebaum, also lays out five points of reasoning for impeaching even if Trump is not worthy of impeachment. His first point is “once an impeachment inquiry begins, the president loses control of the public conversation.” Otherwise start proceedings just to shut up Trump. The last of the five points: “even when it fails to remove a president, it severely damages his political prospects.” Meaning it would be a death knell for Trump’s reelection. In summary, if we cannot do a current political coup then we can make sure he is a one-term president. 

It is questionable whether the American public would tolerate this thinly-veiled maneuver so the Trump-haters had to have real ammunition. They got it Thursday night January 17th at 10:11 P.M. when BuzzFeed released a story that caused even people like myself to be knocked back on their heels. Trump purportedly had told Michael Cohen, his attorney, to perjure himself in front of Congress. The report caused a firestorm because “IF IT IS TRUE,” then Democrats would have what they need -- an actual crime with which to impeach Trump.  

The next day virtually every MSM publication carried the story.  They did not wait to validate the facts. The story was covered as if the facts were real, but they included those now magic words or some version, “If It Is True.” Every major publication sent battalions of reporter out to verify the story, but none could. Yet Democrats had a field day because they now had Trump by the throat.  When asked by the Press they used the Press’s own language – “IF IT IS TRUE.”  

I was baffled. I questioned that Trump had put something like that in an email. Others picked apart BuzzFeed’s story and the credibility of the authors. John Santucci of ABC News stated contradicting BuzzFeed “In all our reporting, I haven’t found any in the Trump Org that have met with or been interviewed by Mueller.” The authors had not even seen the underlying evidence or had they. They could not agree. Andrew McCarthy, a former U.S. attorney and the go-to guy for me and so many others on these legal matters, said he could not believe it because Mueller would have charged Cohen with that when he had charged him. 

Then as you know, the Special Counsel's office came out and said the story is false. And the MSM melted along with the Trump-haters. The furor subsided, or did it? Ben Smith, editor-in-chief, did not falter in the face of the pressure of an unprecedented press release by the Special Counsel denying the story Mr. Smith had published. Did he release documents validating the article? Did he bring forward the two government officials who supposedly were sources? In the ultimate act of hubris, he told the Special Cousel to prove BuzzFeed was wrong. Then the legion of Trump-haters started parsing the Special Counsel's statement as if it was not a complete disabusing of the BuzzFeed story.  

The new criteria for our press to run with a story has become “IF IT IS TRUE.” It does not matter where the report comes from or the seriousness of the claim. The MSM has become an echo chamber for anything anti-Trump. This one though was a behemoth story, published with no validation and once again our press is sadly embarrassed. They did not have to run the story, however, as the Wall Street Journal did not touch the report in its print addition.  

Don’t think that this is over. scumbag-Adam Schiff (D-CA), the new chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, says this needs to be investigated. Lawrence Tribe former Harvard professor and a regular Tweeter of Trump Hysteria, is still advocating immediate impeachment along with others like Billionaire Gone Wild, Tom Steyer.  

“Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party” lived for over 60 years as the most damning statement/inquiry ever made in our history. Though it was made by powerful people in our government, it was barely echoed in the Press. The Press ended up fighting the implications of the question. Today the press has started the use of “IF IT IS TRUE” and then amplified it. The elected officials just copied the phrase and went along.

A justification used for Trump Impeachment is his abuse of our Constitution even though it is unclear how he has done such. This is actual abuse of our Constitution. Our Press has abused the First Amendment and degraded itself in a manner that will permanently harm the value of a free press and thus our First Amendment rights. And yet there is not one person being fired or quitting in shame – are you listening Chuck Todd?

We live in dangerous times if this is not disavowed and never used again.

{redrightvideos.com} ~ During her broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Justice,” over the weekend, host Jeanine Pirro hammered Nancy Pulosi in her show’s “Opening Monologue” segment...  Pirro has been all over Pulosi ever since the shutdown began for putting Americans last and illegal immigrants first. But Saturday, Judge Jeanine laid down the gauntlet: “So let me see if I understand this: An American mother shows a picture of a child murdered by an illegal, and Chuck scumbag-Schumer and his gang they come out and show pictures of federal employees. Is there a moral equivalency here? Are you folks, schizo?”“Are you working for Americans or illegals? Or is it that you just don’t give a damn? You vacation in Hawaii. Your buddies vacation in Puerto Rico during a shutdown and you plan a jaunt to Europe while federal employees are trying to save every dollar to buy groceries. Admit it — you don’t give a damn.” “Nancy, you are a hypocrite, a political operative,” Judge Jeanine added. “Your mantra: Destroy the president of the United States. ‘To hell with the taxpaying hard-working Americans. Let them eat cake. I got a junket to go on, an ego to assuage, an electorate to ignore.’” Pirro is correct! We all love immigrants. This country was built on immigration. But it used to be that we vetted those immigrants. We looked for background and health issues. We wanted good people coming into join the American Dream!...  https://redrightvideos.com/judge-jeanine-puts-career-on-line-exposes-who-pelosi-is-actually-working-for/?utm_source=RRV%20newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=subscriber_id:253196&utm_campaign=Judge%20Jeanine%20Puts%20Career%20On%20Line,%20Exposes%20Who%20Pelosi%20Is%20Actually%20Working%20For

{americanthinker.com} ~ Much has been made of the pre-dawn arrest of Roger Stone in his home in Fort Lauderdale. To make this arrest... Special Counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller, probably having delegated the task to his subordinate Andrew Weissmann who is known for this tactic, assembled a full-scale FBI SWAT team of 29 members, replete with long weapons, body armor, and even a flash-bang grenade or two. The arrest took place at "zero dark thirty" or 5:30 A.M. Nevertheless, a CNN crew was on hand to film the whole thing. Once upon a time, this level of force was considered necessary only to raid suspects able and inclined to shoot back, or who might destroy evidence. Think Symbionese Liberation Army or drug kingpin Frank Lucas of American Gangster fame. In such cases, in which the suspects really might shoot back, a television crew would never be allowed, on the grounds that they could be killed in the crossfire. The fact that a CNN crew was allowed to film Stone's arrest is evidence that nobody believed he was dangerous. Indeed, he was not: he is 66-year-old white-collar suspect with no prior history of violence, who didn't even have weapons in his house. Even the judge processing Stone's arraignment implicitly accepted that Stone was not dangerous; he allowed Stone to be released on a $250,000 surety bond. The usual procedure in white-collar cases is not to assemble an unnecessary SWAT team.  Instead, the Justice Department informs the suspect's attorney that the suspect has been indicted and needs to turn himself in to whatever courthouse for arraignment. The attorney informs the suspect and usually surrenders his client peacefully in the courthouse. No guns, no flash-bangs, no pre-dawn raids. Alan Dershowitz has said the only purpose of this level of force is to intimidate the mark into flipping on someone higher. In the case of Roger Stone, that can mean only President Trump. Nor is Stone the only white-collar suspect to feel dirty cop-Mueller's wrath. Former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort got it much worse. Manafort not only was subjected to the same kind of pre-dawn raid as Stone, but also denied bail and held in solitary confinement – before his trial...  https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/01/one_way_outraged_americans_can_beat_robert_mueller.html

Former Trump Staff Member Says ‘Cartoon Villain’
Kellyanne Conway Bad-Mouthed Colleagues

{thepoliticalinsider.com} ~ Former White House aide Cliff Sims says in a new book that Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway is a “cartoon villain brought to life”... who often bad-mouthed her colleagues to the media. Vanity Fair obtained excerpts from “Team of Vipers: My 500 Extraordinary Days in the Trump White House,” in which Sims accuses Conway of texting reporters negative messages about White House staff. Sims says the messages popped up in real time on Conway’s computer while he used it to write a White House response to the hosts of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” who had criticized Conway. “She was having simultaneous conversations with no fewer than a half­-dozen reporters, most of them from outlets the White House frequently trashed for publishing ‘fake news,’ ” Sims said of Conway’s text messages that he observed. “Jour­nalists from The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, Politico, and Bloomberg were all popping up on the screen. And these weren’t policy conversations, or attempts to fend off attacks on the president,” Sims added. “As I sat there trying to type, she bashed Jared Kushner, Reince Priebus, Steve Bannon and Sean Spicer, mentioning each specifically by name... I wonder if this is true.  https://thepoliticalinsider.com/kellyanne-conway-leaker/?utm_campaign=TPI_Sunday_Newsletter_1_27_2019&utm_source=criticalimpact&utm_medium=email&utm_content=4b4ea4948726422aa6473c7b9fa19141&source=CI 
16-Month Long Sting Operation Catches 
First Nations Man Selling $90 Worth of Fish

{activistpost.com} ~ According to recent reports, a Canadian government agent posed as a scientist to set up an elaborate sting operation targeting a Cree First Nations man... who was accused of illegally selling fish he’d caught from a lake near his home. For a year and a half, a conservation officer from Saskatchewan’s Ministry of Environment went undercover as an air quality scientist to investigate the claims. Donald Iron, a Cree First Nations man who lives in the settlement of Canoe Narrows in northern Saskatchewan, was the target of the investigation. Iron was cited for selling fish without a license after the 16-month long investigation proved he sold a whopping $90 worth of fish. The case sparked outrage among the scientific community as the agency’s actions may negatively impact the relationship that scientists have built with the First Nations. Ryan Brook, a wildlife professor at the University of Saskatchewan, says the community may think twice about dealing with scientists from now on. When an enforcement officer pretends to be a scientist, that definitely sets us back a lot. The next person that comes up to northern Saskatchewan or other places in Canada and says, ‘Hello, I’m a scientist. I’d like to work with you on something’ — it’s just another alarm bell that goes off. It says, ‘Oh, boy. Who is this guy, really?’ “Are we talking about a multi-year sting to capture a major crime ring that’s putting conservation at risk? This was a pretty small case: 90 bucks,” he added...

{townhall.com} ~ First, Buzzfeed News ran a story Jan. 16 that asserted President Donald Trump told his long-time private attorney Michael Cohen to lie to Congress about talks with Russia about a Trump Tower in Moscow. The sources? Two anonymous federal law enforcement officials.

By Friday of that week, a thin gruel of a story had put cable news in a ferocious feeding frenzy as pundits breathlessly pronounced that, "if true," Trump should be impeached. Yes, they jumped on an anonymously sourced story that they wanted to be true, then cagily waved the "if true" disclaimer just in case reality intruded.

They would have continued to say "if true" for days, even as no other news organization could verify the Buzzfeed piece, had not Special Counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller's office ended their glee by issuing a statement roundly debunking it.

To recap, the story was wrong and the only reason to give it credibility was runaway bias. While many journalists hung back and waited to learn more, the public saw an endless spool of anti-Trump pundits who were rewarded for their poor judgment with on-air time and knowing nods.

The next day, another epic media fail was born.

A brief video clip of a white male high school student in a Make America Great Again hat staring silently as a Native American activist stood before him beating a drum and chanting was unleashed on Twitter. A rush to ill-informed judgment followed.

The left dusted off every stereotype in its vault. Twitter users described the moment as a confrontation between smug privileged white teens and a besieged Vietnam veteran proud of his Native American heritage.

CNN contributor Reza Aslan tweeted, "Honest question: Have you ever seen a more punchable face than this kid's?"

In a classic case of confirmation bias, mainstream news outlets went with that narrative that placed the blame on teens in MAGA hats. The Washington Post reported that the high schooler was wearing a "relentless smirk." The story reported the assertion of Nathan Phillips, the Native American drummer, that the kids were shouting, "Build that wall," even though, the story noted, there was no video of the students chanting about a wall. Standards?

The Post story also framed Phillips as he wanted to be framed, the hapless "man in the middle" who was forced into unwanted confrontation.

Later, conservatives posted a video that showed that Phillips, rather than being surrounded by students as he had claimed, actually had approached the students.

The paper also ran a correction on its reporting that Phillips served in Vietnam. He did not.

Nick Sandmann, the MAGA-hat wearing teen, released a statement in which he denied smirking and maintained that he chose to remain silent and expressionless because he didn't want to inflame a tense situation.

Many who posted nasty tweets about the students from Kentucky's Covington Catholic High School deleted them. Some even apologized.

Alas, others argued that white Catholic teens were not entitled to the benefit of the doubt. When White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said she'd never seen people "so happy to destroy a kid's life," an unrepentant Aslan tweeted, "She means a white kid. Brown kids? Well, they belong in cages."

Actress Alyssa Milano refused to walk back the tweet she had posted on the standoff by the Lincoln Memorial: "The red MAGA hat is the new white hood."

Noting that the students were on the Washington Mall waiting for a bus after participating in the anti-abortion March for Life, Milano argued, "Let's not forget -- the entire event happened because a group of boys went on a school-sanctioned trip to protest against a woman's right to her own body and reproductive healthcare."

Translation: Conservatives are fair game.

Conservatives are fair game for virtue-signaling conservatives. Twitter has turned into a forum in which people prove their goodness by berating others as unworthy, and conservatives also trash-talked the students from Kentucky's Covington Catholic High School.

In the heat of the pile-on, the National Review's Nicholas Frankovich tweeted, "As for the putatively Catholic students from Covington, they might as well have just spit on the cross and got it over with." Frankovich later apologized, rightly copped to being "preachy and rhetorically excessive," and deleted the tweet.

When Trump first entered the White House, there was a concerted move to keep him off Twitter because even his own staff was concerned that his often combative bursts on Twitter were, well, unpresidential. Like Aslan today, he would make assertions of questionable accuracy, but stand by them anyway. Two years later, we are all unpresidential and social media in reality is anti-social.

{clarionproject.org} ~ After a lengthy absence from public gaze, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah appeared in a TV interview on January 26, with the key message... I am alive and well. This followed weeks of rumors about his health. More worryingly, the head of the Iranian-backed terror organization warned of the extremely accurate missiles in Hezbollah’s hands. Hezbollah is Lebanese based and its so-called political wing is a major  player in the country’s politics, ensuring Tehran has a say in the affairs of state of Lebanon and Syria, alongside Iran’s growing influence in Iraq and Yemen, completing its Shi’ite crescent across the Middle East. Nasrallah’s TV appearance sought to do two things; show his is still fully functioning as the organization’s secretary-general and make his usual threats toward Israel. His boast of extremely accurate missiles is not new but its timing is significant, as is his warning that Syria could attack Israel at any juncture. The Iranian cabal, which includes the Assad regime in Damascus and Hezbollah, is concerned by Jerusalem’s recent muscle flexing in their direction. For the first time, Israel has not denied it carried attacks on Iranian interests in Syria, as it has taken out numerous arms convoys. This led Nasrallah in his interview with the ever-supportive al-Mayadeen TV, to warn Israel that any attack on Lebanese soil would come at a heavy price...  https://clarionproject.org/hezbollah-we-possess-extremely-accurate-missiles/

{dailycaller.com} ~ President Donald Trump responded Saturday to news of his confidant Roger Stone’s Friday indictment... with a list of Democrats and justice officials he wants to see in trouble for alleged lying. “If Roger Stone was indicted for lying to Congress, what about the lying done by scumbag-James Comey, scumbag/commie-John Brennan, scumbag-James Clapper, Lisa Page and lover, James Baker and soooo many others? What about scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton to FBI and her 33,000 deleted Emails? What about Lisa and Peter Strzok’s deleted texts and Anthony Weiner’s laptop? Much more!” Trump wrote Saturday. Stone was indicted Friday morning on five counts of lying to Congress, one count of witness tampering and one count of obstruction of a government proceeding. Stone appeared on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Friday evening and said Trump never told him to get in touch with WikiLeaks and claimed the indictment was about “silencing” him. Trump accused scumbag/liar-Clinton of lying to the FBI in his Saturday tweet over the tens of thousands emails deleted from the private server she used while U.S. secretary of state...

Dershowitz Says Stone's Arrest Was

{insider.foxnews.com} ~ Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz  said Saturday that there was "no reason" for former Trump adviser Roger Stone's dramatic arrest by the FBI... Stone, 66, was taken into custody Friday following an early morning raid of his home by special agents in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He was indicted by a federal grand jury a day earlier on charges of obstruction, making false statements and witness tampering as part of special counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller's wide-ranging Russia collusion probe. Dershowitz said on Fox & Friends that the nature by which Stone was arrested was meant to put pressure on him. "They should have simply sent his lawyer a notice saying please show up in the federal court," he said. "It was just a show. ... They're interested in getting information from him about the real target, and that's Donald Trump."...  https://insider.foxnews.com/2019/01/26/alan-dershowitz-roger-stone-arrest-was-show-get-donald-trump

{timesofisrael.com} ~ Winter excavation yields information on how an ascetic desert community lived and where it hid its precious sacred texts — and gives pointers for where to search next... A Bedouin huntsman and his dog, climbing on rocky mountainous cliffs above the Dead Sea, spotted a likely prey. The dog chased it into the mouth of a cave where inside, the Bedouin discovered jars containing scrolls with writing upon them. The find was reported to Jews living in Jerusalem, who mounted an expedition into the Judean Desert to retrieve them. They discovered many scrolls written in Hebrew script, including books of the Bible. The year was 790 CE. The events, recorded in a letter written by the East Syriac patriarch Timothy I in 800 CE, eerily anticipate the famous 1946 rediscovery at Qumran of the trove of ancient sacred texts we now know as the Dead Sea Scrolls. For a new team of Qumran excavators, who this week finished a third dig season high above the Dead Sea, the story is a beacon of hope. “The Bedouin were not the first ones to find the scrolls in 1947,” said Dr. Oren Gutfeld, co-director of the Cave 53-Qumran Excavation...  https://www.timesofisrael.com/in-the-qumran-cliffs-an-expedition-digs-up-new-dead-sea-scroll-caves/?utm_source=The+Weekend+Edition&utm_campaign=weekend-edition-2019-01-27&utm_medium=email

Courage From a Boy and a Priest
by Tom McLaughlin
Fr%2BPeter%2Bsmile.jpg
Father Peter Shaba  
 
{tommclaughlin.blogspot.com} ~ America sent many missionaries to Africa. Now Africa is sending them to us because the Catholic faith is growing there but has atrophied here. One such is Father Peter Shaba from Nigeria who said 10:30 mass last Sunday at Elizabeth Ann Seton Church in Fryeburg, Maine. His homily on abortion was only the third I’ve heard in thirty years of attending mass nearly every week all over New England.  
prolifecatholic5b.jpg
“If the mission of Jesus is to save life,” said Father Shaba in reference to Sunday’s mass readings, “for us his followers, our mission is to save and protect life as well. Yes, to save and protect life no matter how young or old that life is, especially the most vulnerable, the unborn. But is that the world mission today? Especially [for] those who call themselves Christians — good Catholics? Brothers and sisters, good Catholics don’t support the killing of innocent children — never.”  
Gov_Cuomo_signs_Reproductive_Health_Act_into_law_-syndImport-101345.jpg
“We all watched what just happened in New York — the passing of the abortion law legalizing abortion up until birth, the Reproductive Health Act which was called ‘a historic victory for New Yorkers and for our progressive values…’ Are we progressing as humans in matters of life or are we retrogressing?” asked Father Shaba. “When we can kill babies who are very vulnerable, who should be cared for and protected since they cannot do that for themselves — but instead of doing that, we are happy and joyous that a law signing their death warrant has just been passed?”  
833730-thumb.png
He was referring to all the Catholic legislators who celebrated as Governor Andrew evil-Cuomo signed the bill into law on the 46th anniversary of Roe V Wade. As Fox News reported it: “evil-Cuomo directed the 408-foot spire on the One World Trade Center, the Governor Mario M. evil-Cuomo Bridge, the Kosciuszko Bridge, and the Alfred E. Smith Building in Albany to be lit pink to ‘celebrate this achievement and shine a bright light forward for the rest of the nation to follow.’”  
Gov-Andrew-Cuomo.jpg
Father Shaba continued: “I watched with sadness the man who signed this law and the women who were with him, other men and women present there especially those close to him — how happy they were, cheering him on, the grandmother who sat close to him, happy, laughing, cheering evil and thinking that all is well? These people should be crying and wailing. Brothers and sisters, I am telling you today: all is not well. We need to pray for our nation.”  
6a00d8341c503453ef01538eb1c2e7970b.jpg
Catholics, including lay people, priests, and a few American bishops are calling on their fellow bishops to censure Governor evil-Cuomo — either excommunicate him or at least to deny him the Eucharist in his home parish. Is anything stirring? On Saturday, Bishop of Albany Edward Scharfenberger wrote to Governor evil-Cuomo, according to according to Fox News: “Your advocacy of extreme abortion legislation is completely contrary to the teachings of our pope and our Church.”  
hqdefault.jpg
evil-Cuomo knows what he’s doing: making an ass of his bishop. So what now Bishop Scharfenberger? Another strong letter to follow? Only days before signing this sinful bill, Governor evil-Cuomo “touted his Catholic faith during the State of the State address,” according to Fox News. Ordinary Catholics want their bishops to do something and we’re gravely disappointed with the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops for refusing to uphold, or even practice Catholic teachings. How can they now allow evil-Cuomo to peddle his Catholicism for political purposes and days later publicly defy the church to which he claims to belong? According to the Catholic Encyclopedia of Canon Law: “The diocesan bishop governs with legislative, executive, and judicial powers according to the norms of law.” Do your job, bishop!

Nick Sandmann, Bishop Foy  
 
And speaking of cowardly bishops, what did Covington, Kentucky Bishop do last week after a Covington Catholic High School boy was pilloried in the pro-abortion media for marching against abortion? Did he defend the boy? No. The bishop threatened him with expulsion! As LifeSiteNews reported: “Bishop Roger Joseph Foy of Covington, Kentucky, along with the Covington Catholic High School administration succumbed to the mainstream media's leftist spin of the Friday, January 19 altercation.” 
mail.jpg
When our bishops lack the courage of a sixteen-year-old high school junior in the face of political and media pressure, what are we to think? Do they really believe in the teachings of the church they pretend to lead? It’s no wonder pews are emptying and churches are closing in America and Europe. Too few priests and bishops believe strongly enough in church teachings to champion them.  
A-Church-You-Can-Relate-To1.jpg
It takes a boy and a priest from Africa to show us what courage looks like, to shine the light on what America has become when “progressive” Catholics celebrate the slaughtering of our unborn children while calling it “Reproductive Health Care.”

Liberals…the perpetually, terminally offended. Those to whom great offense is always taken due to the actions of those who are rarely offended by anything at all. You know…liberals…the victims of everything, responsible for nothing, owed by everyone and in desperate need of warping the world around them, and those who inhabit it to their own bent, distorted and intellectually dishonest mindset.

{pjmedia.com} ~ If you thought the 2018 elections in California were a mess, you were right. Dangerous new election laws and lax practices contributed to that mess... and now they want the rest of the nation to suffer the way Californians do. First, the mess. Election Integrity Project, California (EIPCa), a group of concerned citizens in California, has been documenting problems in the state’s election system for years. We have done the hard, messy work on the ground to catalog the problems. California election officials and legislators have turned our elections into a free-for-all, with few safeguards, all in the name of “voter access." Recent initiatives include “top two” primary elections, automatic voter registration, allowing non-citizens to vote in local elections, allowing mail ballots to arrive after Election Day, rejecting voter ID, removing restrictions on who can handle and return mail ballots aka ballot “harvesting”, same-day registration and voting, allowing voters to “cure” their mail ballot signature mismatches via the honor system and, in 2020, providing all registrants with mail ballots... We don't want it.

{westernjournal.com} ~ The nonpartisan Congressional Research Service released a paper internally that suggests President Donald Trump may have the authority to use Department of Defense resources to build a border wall... without obtaining congressional approval or declaring a state of emergency. CRS, Congress’s in-house research arm, internally published a paper Jan. 10 titled “Can the Department of Defense Build the Border Wall?” The Daily Caller News Foundation has obtained a copy of the paper.The CRS document says: “Another statute that authorizes the Secretary of Defense to assist civilian law enforcement with counterdrug activities may provide some authority for the construction of barriers along the border. “10 U.S.C. § 284 (Section 284) provides that the Secretary of Defense ‘may provide support for the counterdrug activities or activities to counter transnational organized crime’ of any law enforcement agency, including through the ‘construction of roads and fences and installation of lighting to block drug smuggling corridors across international boundaries of the United States.’ … “Use of Section 284 would not require a declaration of a national emergency  under the NEA. “However, the DOD’s Section 284 authority to construct fences appears to extend only to ‘drug smuggling corridors,’ a condition that may limit where DOD could deploy fencing.”...

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ The Trump administration, fed up with the authoritarian government in Venezuela, could soon play its last hand and block imports of the country’s oil... a move that would upset Gulf Coast refiners and pressure energy markets. “The likelihood of significant sanctions including an import ban is higher now than it ever has been during the Trump administration," George David Banks, President Trump's former international energy adviser, told the Washington Examiner. Banks said the Trump administration has long debated restricting oil from Venezuela, whose heavy crude is used in large amounts by refiners in Texas and Louisiana such as Citgo and Valero. The administration held off, however, realizing refiners built to process heavy oil — before the U.S. became a dominant producer of light sweet crude during the shale boom — would struggle to find replacement sources, even though they have tried. But the stakes changed after the Trump administration on Wednesday recognized the oil-rich country's opposition leader Juan Guaido as Venezuela’s official head of state, in a swipe at leftist authoritarian President Nicolas Maduro, whose political oppression and economic policies have created food shortages and a public health crisis...  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/energy/trump-administration-weighs-oil-embargo-on-venezuela-to-oust-maduro?utm_source=WEX_News%20Brief_01/26/2019&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WEX_News%20Brief

{thehill.com} ~ FBI Director Christopher Wray tore into what he called a “mind-boggling” and “short-sighted” government shutdown in a video message to employees on Thursday... telling them he is angrier than he has ever been. Wray released a video message nearly six minutes long in which he encouraged employees to not give up hope during the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. “It takes a lot to get me angry, but I’m about as angry as I’ve been in a long, long time,” Wray said. The five-week-long shutdown has caused around 800,000 federal employees to miss two consecutive paychecks. “I know tons of you are feeling the anxiety and the emotional strain of this shutdown,” Wray said. “And 100 percent of you are feeling the financial strain.” The Department of Justice is one of several federal agencies impacted by the ongoing government shutdown, which entered its 35th day on Friday. FBI agents are deemed essential and are still working, but they are not being paid as a result of the lapse in appropriations...Theres no need to be angry anymore, Trump signed the bill to end the shutdown.

The Constitutional Fiasco of a Wealth Tax
by MATTHEW J. FRANCK

{nationalreview.com} ~ Today the New York Times gave a large chunk of op-ed real estate (1,300 words) to Daniel Altman... 
a former Times editorial board member now teaching economics part-time at NYU.  Concerned about wealth inequality–which he regards as a much more serious problem than mere income inequality–Altman proposes that we enact a wealth tax. This would target not what people earn but what they own–the houses, the cars, the money in the bank, the privately owned businesses, the investment portfolios themselves rather than the interests and dividends therefrom, and so forth. Altman recognizes various practical difficulties with the implementation of such a tax, but he is convinced it would be a good alternative to our present income tax. He proposes wealth tax rates of “zero percent up to $500,000 in wealth, 1 percent for wealth between $500,000 and $1 million, and 2 percent for wealth above $1 million.”  He continues with this sketch: To see how the wealth tax would work, consider a family with $500,000 in wealth and $200,000 in annual income. Right now, they might pay $50,000 in federal income tax. With the wealth tax brackets described above, they would pay nothing. On the other hand, a family with $4 million in wealth and $200,000 in annual income would owe $65,000. Most families that depend on their wealth for their income would pay more, and most that depend on their earnings would pay less.  Even assuming, as I do not, that the inequality Altman describes is in itself an injustice, or the cause of injustices, he is overlooking one huge problem–actually a set of problems–for any such proposal.  It is contained in the Constitution, which says the following... Both Altman and dinky-Warren are both wrong on this 
inequality.

Early Mistakes in the War on Terror Hurt America Today

by Harold Hutchison:  President George W. Bush had an unenviable task in the wake of 9/11: addressing the growing threat of radical Islamic terrorism. In some areas of the Global War on Terror, he did very well. But not in all.

He rightly recognized that treating terrorism like a law-enforcement problem, as scumbag/liar-Bill Clinton did, was the wrong strategy. When it came time to making terrorists talk, Bush’s administration used enhanced interrogation to obtain life-saving information. And state sponsors of terrorism were put on notice that such a status would be hazardous to their regime’s existence.

That said, Bush also made some big mistakes. His failure to push back against the Left’s defamatory “Bush lied” narrative was costly, both in our strategic position and politically. By the time he did fight for the “surge” in Iraq, all he did was stabilize the country to the point that Barack scumbag/liar-nObama’s premature pullout was a non-concern to most Americans. The resulting rise of ISIS and the atrocities that terrorist group inflicted on millions of innocents are only the most visible consequences of that calamitous withdrawal.

Bush made other mistakes, too. He should’ve turned counterterror statutes on the Gitmo Bar, which was making Hanoi Jane look like a piker. A photo shoot on an enemy anti-aircraft gun pales in comparison to the access to the American legal system that our nation’s avowed enemies received. His failure to shut this down immediately yielded drastic consequences.

One of those consequences was that the CIA operatives who waterboarded Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (let’s face it: a six-pack of Coors Light and a carton of smokes wasn’t going to cut it) were set upon by the ACLU. Leftists outraged over the alleged outing of CIA desk jockey Valerie Plame were conspicuously silent when these authentic operatives were outed to terrorists for the sake of smearing them as torturers. Another consequence is that our nation’s acceptable interrogation techniques are now public, available on Amazon. It’s kinda hard to beat someone who’s literally read your playbook.

The Bush administration’s biggest mistake, though, was failing to sufficiently build up our military to face a global war on terror in addition to its other tasks around the world. The ArmyNavyAir ForceMarine Corps, and Coast Guard all needed to be built up, especially after the short-sighted “peace dividend” of the 1990s.

Not only would this have boosted our Rust Belt economy by creating jobs and upgrading our manufacturing capability, but a larger military would also have been less stressed by its increased workload. And there would’ve been plenty of reserve capability when Obama slashed the force structure.

Sound like a waste of money? Well, think about how much we’ve spent fighting the War on Terror, and how much it’s costing us to play catch-up as Russia and China get more aggressive. We needed a military that could kill jihadists and break (or take) their stuff, deter Russian aggression against Eastern Europe, and deal with any Chinese ambitions in the South China Sea. We never quite got that.

Today, we face a tougher situation, as any new build-up will take time to bear fruit. In a very real sense, while we’re safer in some ways because of what George W. Bush did, we also have some hard choices because of what he didn’t do.  ~The Patriot Post

Pulosi Sets Impeachment Stage With Tweet: 
“What Does Putin Have on Trump?”

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ The tweet itself is connected to, and comes on the heels of, Speaker Pulosi publishing a statement about the Special Counsel, DOJ and FBI arrest of Roger Stone...  All indications are that Speaker Pulosi will refuse to allow President Trump to deliver a State of the Union address from the capitol building. Factually, the Speaker is currently barring President Trump from entering the premises. The implication within both the tweet and the published press release appears to be groundwork justification to forbid President Trump from entering the venue by claiming his administration is illegitimate. Obviously this approach would be unprecedented. However, as with everything that has happened thus far, this level of resistance continues to raise political confrontation into uncharted territory. Secondly, as we noted in the new Speaker Pulosi ‘House Rules‘, the framework of the congressional committees are specifically structured to accomplish an impeachment process. The shift yesterday to a more hostile, aggressive and confrontational tone would seem to indicate all House ‘impeachment‘ pretense is being dropped... There must be something that Trump can do to stop Pulosi.  https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/01/26/speaker-pelosi-sets-impeachment-stage-with-tweet-what-does-putin-have-on-trump/

Trump White House drafts national 
emergency order that would fund border wall

{conservativeinstitute.org} ~ Although President Donald Trump announced on Friday  afternoon that the government will temporarily reopen while talks continue on the GOP’s proposed border wall... the Republican administration is still considering a potent Plan B. “As everyone knows I have a very powerful alternative, but I’m not going to use it at this time,” Trump told reporters from the White House Rose Garden. Behind the scenes, however, the White House is making gingerly preparations to bypass Congress altogether by declaring a national emergency and using defense funds to construct the wall. The administration has already prepared a draft proposal and identified more than $7 billion in potential funds to secure the southern border.“I am very proud to announce today that we have reached a deal to end the shutdown and reopen the federal government,” Trump said on Friday, signaling the end of the longest partial government closure in U.S. history. But even before the president seemed to give up on his plans for a barrier along parts of the U.S.-Mexico border, White House officials were already considering an alternative course of action, which could take authority out of the hands of congressional Democrats. The president has reportedly prepared a draft proclamation in the event that he decides to declare a state of emergency along the southern border... Yes, do it Trump.
Can Congress do a border deal in just 
three weeks? 'A lot of complicating issues'

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ Senate Republicans are skeptical that Congress will be able to reach an agreement on a deal in just three weeks to boost border security that includes funding for a border wall... as President Trump is demanding. On Friday, after Trump agreed to end the shutdown and give Congress a three-week period to find a deal, some were already saying a deal of this magnitude probably requires more time than Congress has. "It's immigration. That's the hard part — it's immigration," said Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., as he left the Capitol Friday. "When you deal with immigration, there are a lot of complicating issues.""Everybody tries to push this thing as big as they can, and that's hard because that's not  three weeks. That's three months," Lankford said, on how much time might be needed. The plan approved by Trump, and which Congress passed soon afterward, calls for House and Senate lawmakers to negotiate some way forward on border security. Trump stressed that a border wall should be part of that discussion, but there's no guarantee Congress will be able to agree to that. If it doesn't, Trump indicated several times he would declare a national emergency to seize control of funds he could use to build a border wall, a plan that would likely face court challenges...

Jordan said to bar hundreds of Israelis 
from disputed ‘Isle of Peace’ on border

{timesofisrael.com} ~ The Jordanian army on Saturday reportedly prevented hundreds of Israelis from entering the Naharayim border area, which was leased to Israel under an appendix to the 1994 peace accord that is set to expire later this year... Jordan’s King Abdullah II announced in October 2018 he would not renew the appendix to the peace treaty that granted Israel use of the area — two small parcels of agricultural land, long farmed by Israeli farmers, which are also home to the remains of a hydroelectric power station built by Jews in 1921. Known in Israel as Naharayim in the north and the Tzofar enclave in the southern Arava desert, the territories are thus set to return to Jordanian hands when the lease expires in October. Israel is hoping to persuade the Jordanians to reconsider, but no progress is known to have been made in such efforts. Israeli tourists who arrived Saturday at the Naharayim site, also known as the Isle of Peace, were turned away by the Jordanian military despite being in possession of the necessary permits and having coordinated the trip with authorities in advance, Hadashot TV news reported. A local Israeli official told Hadashot news that Jordanian officials were changing the facts on the ground, but that he remained hopeful that tourists from both sides would be able to continue to visit the site...

If commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Were a Conservative
 
by Marc A. Thiessen

If Rep. commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., were a conservative, all anyone would be talking about is how uninformed she is. She would be facing trick questions from reporters designed to expose her lack of knowledge, and brutal sketches on “Saturday Night Live” mocking her intelligence and fitness for office. Instead, SNL fawns over her, while CBS’s “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert — far from making jokes at her expense — eats ice cream with her and asks how many “f—s” she gives about her critics.

Boy, it’s good to be a socialist.

It’s not that there is a lack of material. This week, for example, commie-Ocasio-Cortez declared that “the world is going to end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change.” She has said that $21 trillion in “Pentagon accounting errors” could pay for most of her massive $32 trillion Medicare-for-all plan — as if there were $21 trillion in unspent tax dollars sitting around in a Pentagon vault. She opined that “just last year we gave the military a $700 billion dollar budget increase, which they didn’t even ask for” — unaware, apparently, that the entire Pentagon budget is $716 billion. She wrongly claimed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement “is required to fill 34,000 beds with detainees every single night and that number has only been increasing since 2009” — when ICE is required only to have that number of beds available and that number has remained flat. She has declared that “unemployment is low because everyone has two jobs” — which is flat untrue. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are only 6 million to 7 million Americans with two jobs and 148 million with just one.

Those are examples of ignorance. But apparently she is also dishonest. This week, she told Colbert that she has not been able to open a district office yet to handle constituent casework because of the federal government shutdown. “There’s a lot of things we can’t do as freshman members,” she said. “We can’t properly set up our district offices. We can’t get laptops delivered. We can’t start doing the work that we were elected here to do. … It takes the green stuff. And those workers are furloughed.” That’s wrong. Last September, Congress passed the 2019 Legislative Branch Appropriations bill, which funds congressional salaries and offices for the coming year. commie-Ocasio-Cortez knows this because, unlike furloughed workers, she is getting paid. The New York Times reports that the three other first-term members from New York have managed to open offices in their districts. A more likely explanation is that commie-Ocasio-Cortez is spending her time building her national media profile instead of taking care of the constituents who sent her to Washington in the first place.

So where are the articles bemoaning “The incredible, thuggish stupidity of commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez”? Where are the journalists trying to trip her up with questions like “Do you agree with the Bush Doctrine?” to see if she knows what it is? Nowhere to be found. To their credit, the fact-checkers have been on the case. PolitiFact gave her unemployment claim a “Pants on Fire” rating, and she is rapidly accumulating a large cache of Post Pinnochios — so much so that she claims to be the victim of “false equivalency + bias.” Give me a break. She told CBS’s “60 Minutes” that “being morally right” is more important than “being precisely, factually … correct.” Apparently, facts matter less as long as you support Big Government.

But facts are crucial, especially when you are proposing the largest increase in government spending in human history. Vox recently added up the cost of all her proposals — from Medicare-for-all, to free college, guaranteed jobs and the “Green New Deal.” The price tag was $42.5 trillion over the next decade — more than twice the current national debt. Sorry, you can’t pay for that through Pentagon accounting errors.

It is a tremendous testament to America that someone who was working as a bartender in a Mexican restaurant a year ago can throw their hat into the ring, unseat a 10-term member of Congress and be elected to the House of Representatives. It’s what makes this such an exceptional nation. And it is obvious that she has political talent. But that doesn’t excuse her from the responsibilities as a legislator to learn the facts and serve her constituents. Even Whoopi Goldberg, an commie-Ocasio-Cortez supporter, warned her on “The View,” “I would encourage you to sit still for a minute and learn the job.”

That’s good advice. Once people decide you are ignorant, it’s hard to recover — just ask Sarah Palin or Dan Quayle. Of course, they were conservatives, so the standards are different.  ~The Patriot Post

New York to Spend Millions Putting

{dailycaller.com} ~ New York state lawmakers approved a measure that aims to dole out millions in taxpayer-funded aid to Dreamers... who entered the country illegally — attending college. The now-Democratic controlled New York state legislature on Wednesday passed the Dream Act, legislation that would make thousands of Dreamers eligible for financial aid to attend public colleges in the state. The bill, which has attracted praise from Democratic New York Gov. Andrew evil-Cuomo, would cost $27 million. The measure is “a slap in the face for all the hardworking taxpayers who play the rules and struggle for the costs of a college education,” Republican state Sen. Daphne Jordan said of the bill. Jordan was joined by other Republican state legislators in criticism of the Dream Act, who argued it would unfairly take money away from legal residents who struggle to pay their college tuition... Its time to move out of NY.

{libertyheadlines.com} ~ Democrats would promptly file suit against the Trump administration if the president were to declare a national emergency in order to bankroll a southern border barrier... the new House Armed Services chairman warned Friday. Trump has not declared such an emergency, which would permit him to redirect billions of federal dollars to pay for his wall. But he threatened at the White House on Friday that it is still an option, even as he agreed to sign legislation that would temporarily reopen the shuttered portions of the U.S. government. “We really have no choice but to build a powerful wall or steel barrier,” Trump said. “If we don’t get a fair deal from Congress, the government will either shut down on Feb. 15 again or I will use the powers afforded to me under the laws and the Constitution of the United States to address this emergency.” Trump’s aides have reportedly drafted a declaration that would enable the president to divert billions in military construction and flood-control funds. “There would immediately be a lawsuit,” said Washington Democrat Adam Smith, in a C-SPAN “Newsmakers” interview to be initially broadcast on Friday... Not so quick dems.

Iran's Kidnapping Industry

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ "Sometimes when I come back from the visit with Gabriella, after saying goodbye to her, I feel as if I cannot live without her, I want to go back and hold her... She kisses me so hard. It is hard to say goodbye to her. She blows kisses all the way as she goes up the stairs, and everyone stands there watching." These are the words of a grieving British mother, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, held in prison in the Islamic Republic of Iran, as she describes saying goodbye to her child. In 2016, the relationship between the regime of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the scumbag/liar-nObama administration seemed to have reached a euphoric level. Many exorbitant concessions were made by the United States to the Islamic Republic. The argument for these concessions was that such policies of appeasement would inspire Iran to change its malignant behavior, and that the freedoms that resulted would trickle down to the Iranian people. People began to think it would be safe to travel to Iran again. As tourism began to increase, however, it soon became clear that there was still rampant  danger. People started becoming the new hostages of Iran. Two of these victims are an innocent British mother, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, and her helpless then-22-month-old daughter, Gabriella. Zaghari-Ratcliffe traveled with her baby to Iran to visit her family on Norowz, the Iranian New Year, in 2016. With the change in political climate Zaghari-Ratcliffe,  employed as a project manager with the Thomson Reuters Foundation, the charitable arm of the Canadian news agency, Thomson Reuters, assumed they would be safe. As she boarded the plane, she had no idea what she would face at the Khomeini Airport. She was surrounded by The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and arrested. Immediately, the IRGC confiscated both her and her daughter's passports. Gabriella does not have an Iranian nationality; she was born in Britain. Despite her foreign citizenship, she has not been allowed to return to their. As is true in many Iranian court cases authorities are not required to, and did not offer, any reason to detain or arrest Zaghari-Ratcliffe and her child...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/13542/iran-kidnapping-hostages

Julian Assange Sues Trump Administration To Reveal

Lawyers for Julian Assange have filed an urgent application to the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights (IACHR), based in Washington D.C., to demand the Trump Administration unseal the charges it has secretly filed against Assange. The Australian activist’s lawyers are further asking the Commission to compel Ecuador to cease its espionage activities against Assange, to stop the isolation imposed on him and to protect Assange from U.S. extradition. The request is a whopping 1,172-page application for “precautionary measures” directed at the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights...  https://www.activistpost.com/2019/01/julian-assange-sues-trump-administration-to-reveal-charges-against-him-wikileaks-associates-being-interrogated.html?utm_source=Activist+Post+Subscribers&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=c2b4644a5f-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN&utm_term=0_b0c7fb76bd-c2b4644a5f-387888649

Ilhan Omar's Deceitful Bigotry

by Nate Jackson:  We recently noted the flap over foolish comments from Republican Iowa Rep. Steve King and the GOP response to rebuke him. We also asked where Democrats were when it came to resisting anti-Semitism and other bigotry in their own party. Well, they have a golden opportunity in Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.

The freshman Democrat recently joined the Left’s hate narrative regarding the MAGA-hat wearing Catholic boys and the noxious Native American drummer. The Leftmedia appallingly botched the facts, which leftists around the nation used to ratchet up their hate speech directed at supporters of Donald Trump. Not wanting to miss out, Omar chose to flat-out lie, saying in a now-deleted tweet, “The boys were protesting a woman’s right to choose & yelled ‘it’s not rape if you enjoy it.’ They were taunting 5 Black men before they surrounded Phillips and led racist chants. [Nick] Sandmann’s family hired a right wing PR firm to write his non-apology.”

Not a single word Omar said is true. The boys were at the March for Life, and that awful phrase about rape was yelled by someone not associated with the Catholic group. The black men — members of the black supremacist Black Hebrew Israelites — were shouting racist and homophobic insults at the boys, not the other way around. Heck, even the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center lists the Black Hebrew Israelites as a militant hate group. And Phillips — a liar and charlatan himself — confronted the boys, who passively stood their ground. The political orientation of Sandmann’s hire is irrelevant given that his statement is completely back up by video evidence and that his family and school have been the subject of violent threats from leftists. Besides, Omar didn’t care about the left-wing PR firms hired by Parkland students.

Nevertheless, Omar persisted in spreading lies about them, all while including a link to a story decrying “white journalists” who were simply telling the truth about the incident. True, she was cowed into deleting the tweet, but she has not apologized or reversed course.

National Review’s Jim Geraghty writes, “Back in 2012, before she was elected to the state legislature or Congress, Omar tweeted, ‘Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel.’ (Israeli forces and Palestinians clashed in the Hamas-governed Gaza Strip at the time.) This led to years of accusations that Omar’s opposition to Israel had become indistinguishable from anti-Semitism, with many noting that the notion that Jews ‘hypnotize’ people is a longtime anti-Semitic trope. When asked about this in an interview on CNN January 17, Omar responded, ‘I don’t know how my comments would be offensive to Jewish Americans.’”

As Michael McAdams, National Republican Congressional Committee national press secretary noted, “Omar, who has made a name for herself by spouting off anti-Semitic rhetoric, lying about her support for the BDS movement and making disgusting false smears against Senator Lindsey Graham, has become one of the faces of Nancy Pulosi’s band of radical Democrats.”

So don’t expect Dems to treat her the way Republicans responded to King.  ~The Patriot Post

{thefederalist.com} ~ In an interview with Rolling Stone this month, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was asked how his company is addressing harassment and false information across their platform... His response? “We can’t be arbiters of truth.” And yet, Twitter employees act as the self-appointed arbiters of truth everyday. Dorsey even acknowledged that he has a team of humans, not bots, whose job is to decide what is “misleading” and to curate posts as they see fit. “The question we’re now asking ourselves is, if that is indeed misleading, how do we stop its spread? We can amplify the counter-narrative. We do have a curation team that looks to find balance,” he said. Dorsey does not compute that by amplifying counter-narratives and in relying on his team’s idea of balance, he is indeed acting as an arbiter of his own version of truth. Here are just a few of the blaring instances when Twitter has established “their truth.”...

{freebeacon.com} ~ Virginia judges picked a redistricting map this week supported by Democratic super lawyer Marc Elias that favors his party and could cost Republicans control of the House of Delegates in the state this year... Elias, a partner at the Washington, D.C., office of the Perkins Coie law firm who recently signed on to act as the top lawyer for lowlife-Kamala Harris's presidential campaign, in 2015 brought a redistricting lawsuit on behalf of a group of African Americans. Judges would rule that lawmakers had pushed them into 11 districts. A series of redistricting proposals were submitted, and Elias's was ultimately selected by Virginia's Eastern District Court. "In Virginia, the Federal Court in the long-running state house redistricting case has ordered the special master to adopt the alternative-map configuration we advocated," Elias said. "We are one important step closer to the end of the GOP's racial gerrymander." Republicans currently hold a 51 to 48 advantage over Democrats in the state's House of Delegates and all 100 seats are up for election this year. The map could flip five to six districts currently held by Republicans, the Martinsville Bulletin notes...  https://freebeacon.com/politics/marc-elias-redistricting-map-picked-by-virginia-court-could-flip-control-to-dems/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=feb89beeed-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_01_25_08_47_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-feb89beeed-45611665

scumbag-Adam Schiff Sends HPSCI Witness Transcripts to

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ This is a key tell and completely irreconcilable by those who work for Epoch Times news organization... who continually claim that Rod Rosenstein and dirty cop-Robert Mueller are working earnestly toward the cause of justice. Last September 2018, HPSCI Republican Chairman Devin Nunes asked the DOJ to review, for declassification purposes, all witness transcripts and release them to the public. However, the DOJ and FBI refused to release the transcripts. Three months later, December 2018, the joint Oversight and Judiciary Committee also requested their witness transcripts from their committee be released. Both requests were denied. The House Intelligence Committee will release all transcripts of interviews in its probe of Russian election interference to the special counsel’s office, its Democratic chairman said on Friday after Roger Stone, a longtime ally of President Donald Trump, was charged with lying to Congress. “This is now the second witness who has been indicted for or plead guilty to making false statements in testimony before our Committee,” Rep. scumbag-Adam Schiff said in a statement. “The first order of business for the Committee will be to release all remaining transcripts to the Special Counsel’s Office, and we will continue to follow the facts wherever they lead.” scumbag-Schiff and scumbag-Elijah Cummings, the chairman of the House oversight committee, said on Wednesday they expect Trump’s longtime personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, to testify before both panels, despite his decision to postpone his Feb. 7 appearance, citing threats against his family from Trump...

Iran Is Still on Its Way to Getting Nukes

{freebeacon.com} ~ On July 14, 2015, the day when several world powers struck the Iran nuclear deal, then-President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama triumphantly touted his administration's crowning foreign policy achievement... "Every pathway to a nuclear weapon is cut off," he said. "Because of this deal, Iran will not produce the highly enriched uranium and weapons-grade plutonium that form the raw materials necessary for a nuclear bomb." Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, apparently did not get the memo. Speaking to Iran's Channel 4 on Tuesday, Salehi made several revealing comments that belie scumbag/liar-nObama's maximalist statements about the nuclear deal—officially called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA. His remarks, translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute, should concern anyone worried about a murderous Islamist theocracy obtaining the world's most destructive weapons. "Iran has lost nothing as a result of signing the agreement, and history will prove this," Salehi said. "We have preserved our capabilities in the field of enrichment. We are providing products for other industries and are continuing to manufacture new centrifuges. We are doing everything we need to do." Salehi described how the Iranian regime circumvented a section of the deal that explicitly requires Tehran to remove the reactor core at its Arak nuclear facility in central Iran, and then to fill its tubes with cement so the facility cannot be used to pursue a plutonium path to a bomb. Iran's nuclear chief explained that Tehran secretly acquired and stored replacement tubes, noting that only Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, knew about the decision... Iran deceived scumbag/liar-nObama and hanoi-Kerry and they bough it.

{aei.org} ~ Venezuelans who take to the streets today to reclaim their freedom from a narco dictatorship may finally have a fighting chance... The Trump administration’s unrelenting sanctions and an intense communications campaign — coupled with tough diplomatic pressure bolstered by Brazil’s new government — have ruled out any deals with Nicolas Maduro’s criminal regime. However, a popular uprising is a blunt instrument, and toppling Maduro is only a start. A smart, thorough US strategy is required to prevent wanton violence, uproot a dangerous criminal network, and put Venezuela’s economic recovery on the right track.  Numerous times in the last five years, Maduro succeeded in crushing pro-democracy demonstrations with ruthless tactics. Tragically, on those occasions, corrupt generals sided with their paymaster instead of their people. Opposition politicians struck suspicious deals with the regime, and the international community — including the United States under President scumbag/liar-nObama — indulged the folly of negotiating with criminals. This time, led by National Security Advisor John Bolton, the Trump team is determined to liberate Venezuela.  Maduro sealed his fate by staging a phony election last May and claiming a new term as president on January 10th. Key Latin American governments — led by Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), Luis Almagro, and the region’s “Lima Group” — categorically rejected Maduro’s legitimacy.  Reflecting the hardline position of Brazil’s new president, Jair Bolsonaro, key governments advocated a series of tough sanctions that are likely to be applied in the days ahead...

The Rapid Growth of Homeschooling

by Brian Mark Weber:  It’s School Choice Week in America.

Unfortunately, many children are trapped in schools where they’re not only unsafe, but also unable to access a quality education. Sure, there are plenty of great public and private schools, but shouldn’t parents have more say in where and how their children are educated than to be stuck in the public school they’re zoned for?

Today there are plenty of stereotypical arguments against homeschooling, but the stigma that homeschooled children are introverted, narrow-minded, politically intolerant, or ill-prepared for college is being turned upside down by the facts.

Studies show that homeschooled children score higher on the SAT and ACT, the two standardized tests that most colleges and universities require for admission. At the same time, the scores of public-school students are dropping. As a result, colleges are more eager than ever to admit homeschooled students and in many cases actively seek them out.

Not only is homeschooling producing students ready to take on a college education, but these students are also arriving on campus  as engaged and open-minded citizens. As David Cheng concludes in the Journal of School Choice, “Some have claimed that private schooling and homeschooling are institutions that propagate political intolerance by fostering separatism and an unwillingness to consider alternative viewpoints.” However, Cheng’s research reveals that “homeschooling is associated with more political tolerance.”

But what about the notion that homeschooled children are mainly from Christian families? The Pacific Standard reminds us, “Today’s homeschool advocates aren’t the Christian Right, trying to dismantle public education. Rather, they’re parents who don’t believe that the current school model is best, or enough, for their children.”

Of course, homeschooling simply isn’t a viable alternative for all families.

Mike McShane writes at Forbes, “For many families, the costs and obligations related to homeschooling are simply too burdensome. Some parents don’t have the confidence in their own abilities to teach every subject to their children. Others cannot devote themselves to homeschooling full-time. Perhaps most of all, many homeschooling families want their children to socialize with other children to learn how to share, cooperate and get along with others.”

Homeschooling may not be the best option for every student, and no one is suggesting that traditional methods of educating children don’t have merit. In fact, that’s just the point: Each child and family is different and deserves the opportunity for the right education model. The key is to make sure parents have the freedom and the flexibility to make choices that are best for their kids instead of being forced into a one-size-fits-all system.

One option that seems to be making its mark is known as hybrid schooling, a system in which children spend part of their time being educated in the home and the other part in a traditional classroom. This innovative idea is just one example of what great options parents could have if school choice initiatives were expanded across the country.

Despite some of the obstacles that parents face in deciding how and where to educate their children, the homeschooled numbers are increasing steadily. According to EdChoice’s Schooling in America survey, around 3% of students are currently homeschooled, while another 7% of parents would consider it for their children. Overall, the number of homeschooled students has more than doubled since 1999 to nearly two million.

One of the factors making it easier for parents to choose homeschooling is the implementation of education savings accounts. The Daily Signal’s Lindsey Burke writes, “Not only have the number of schooling options swelled in recent years, but so has innovation within the education sector. Education savings accounts, also established in 2011, enable families to direct the funds that would have been spent by the state on their child in the public system.”

Burke adds, “State funds for each pupil are deposited directly into a parent-controlled account, and families can then use those funds to pay for private school tuition, online learning, special education services and therapies, private tutoring, and a host of other education-related services, products, and providers. The innovation afforded through education savings accounts can put children on an entirely different educational trajectory.” Five states currently have these account systems in place, says Burke, while others are considering it as an option for parents.

All in all, these are good days for the homeschooling movement in America. And as we recognize School Choice Week, let’s hope our political leaders continue to work toward giving parents a greater say in how their children are educated.  ~The Patriot Post

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ Taking a victory lap around the White House, Speaker Nancy Pulosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck scumbag-Schumer hold a press conference after President Trump agreed to temporarily re-open government (three weeks)... without any funding or promises toward a southern border wall.  Additionally, it seems Speaker Pulosi is positioning herself to use the current investigative calendar, and narrative as built therein, as a rebuke for an illegitimate President Trump – keeping him from making any State of the Union speech within the House chamber.

{freebeacon.com} ~ CNN hosts and reporters torched President Donald Trump after his speech announcing the end of the partial government shutdown... saying he had caved for nothing and suffered perhaps the worst strategic loss of his political career. Trump announced at the White House he would sign a continuing resolution to fund the government through Feb. 15, effectively ending the 35-day shutdown. He promised to get federal workers who had been going without pay their paychecks quickly, but the big political news was there was no money for the wall Trump has long promised to build on the southern border. He said he expected Republicans and Democrats to work in good faith over the next three weeks to provide funding for border security. He also mentioned the government could easily shut down again in February and was prepared to declare emergency powers if needed. Trump departed his speech to applause at the White House. CNN daytime anchor Brooke Baldwin was disgusted. "35 days," she said. "35 days of federal workers rationing asthma medicine for their kids, sleeping in cars … This man is not getting a single penny for his wall. 35 days. And people are applauding him. This man single handedly shut down the government. It is shameful."... CNN is full of it and so unbearable.

{fdd.org} ~ China, Russia and Iran are very different nations in very different parts of the world but they have three significant commonalities... All once were great empires. All are now ruled by men who aspire to build great empires anew. All regard the United States as their rival and adversary. Al Qaeda and the Islamic State also dream of empire, one that would replace the Ottoman Empire, which collapsed in 1922, and its affiliated caliphate, which was abolished two years later. Important to note: Iran’s rulers are not seeking to build a Persian or Iranian empire. Like al Qaeda and the Islamic State, they intend to resurrect a specifically Islamic empire, albeit one dominated by Shia rather than Sunni Muslims. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who led Iran’s Islamic Revolution 40 years ago, was quite clear on this point. “Patriotism is paganism,” he said. Note that the most powerful institution he created was the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, not – as you’ll sometimes hear it called – the “Iranian” Revolutionary Guard Corps. Islamic imperialism, whether Sunni or Shia, is universalist – all conquered nations are to embrace a single theology. The same was true of Soviet imperialism – all the lands ruled by Moscow were expected to embrace communist ideology...

{westernjournal.com} ~ If all press is good press, Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota has had a smash-up couple of weeks... She’s made anti-Semitic remarks. She supports BDS. She’s defended the noxious Black Hebrew Israelites against the Covington Catholic kids, saying that the notoriously racist sect were actually the victims at the March to Life brouhaha. You know, fun stuff like that. However, it’s not like we shouldn’t have predicted it. Right after she was elected as a Minnesota state legislator, she actually pushed a judge for lenient sentences for nine men who tried to join the Islamic State group, arguing that the case could be a landmark in a “restorative approach to justice” and saying that his “ruling can set a precedent and has the potential to be a landmark case in addressing extremism.”The case, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, was the largest counterterrorism prosecution in the history of the United States. The men involved had tried to travel to Syria in order to fight with the terrorist group.  KMSP  reports that the plot even involved two of the men traveling to San Diego in order to purchase fake passports so that they could travel to the Middle East. The defense in the case had argued that the men were “caught between two worlds – the United States and pride in their Somali heritage,” KMSP reported. “The defense argued the young men were lured by propaganda on the internet that suggested that a ‘true Muslim’ should be in Syria saving other Muslims who are being killed and trying to restore the Caliphate.” In the case of defendant Guled Omar, however, federal prosecutors noted that the defense was “making light of what is an extraordinarily dangerous conspiracy. Far from comedians engaged in slapstick comedy in black and white film, the Islamic State group’s members engage in wholesale murder, rape, and cultural annihilation. But unlike the Three Stooges referenced by counsel for Omar, the Islamic State group films in full color.”... Minnesota you elected the wrong person to represent you.

{freebeacon.com} ~ After bashing the Trump administration's position on the unrest in Venezuela, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) on Friday retweeted and liked praise from a host on a Venezuelan state-run television station... The United States led the way in recognizing opposition leader Juan Guaido as the head of Venezuela, after President Nicolas Maduro won an election that international observers described as fraudulent. "I will continue to use the full weight of United States economic and diplomatic power to press for the restoration of Venezuelan democracy," Trump said in a statement. But several members of Congress, in particular Democrats affiliated with Democratic Socialists of America, dissented from the decision. Omar tweeted Thursday that the U.S. was backing a "coup" in Venezuela to "install a far right opposition." In fact, Guaido's opposition party Voluntad Popular is considered center-left and is a member organization of the Socialist International. Less than an hour after that tweet, Omar retweeted a Jan. 11 tweet by journalist Abby Martin, who shared a video from her show "Empire Files" claiming "Trump is Expanding the US Empire."... She has no idea what she's talking about.  https://freebeacon.com/politics/ilhan-omar-retweets-venezuelan-russian-state-media-after-bashing-u-s-coup/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=0fe642dd52-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_03_19_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-0fe642dd52-45611665

Another Nuclear Option to Clear Judicial Backlog?

by Michael Swartz:  If there’s one thing President Donald Trump has been dogged about — besides feeding his Twitter habit — it’s the pace he’s kept in sending judicial nominees to the Senate. For most of the first half of his term, he was getting approvals at a blistering pace. But as the 115th Congress closed, the petulant antics of lame-duck GOP Sen. rino-Jeff Flake left the president with dozens of nominees who didn’t get through the process. As our Thomas Gallatin wrote late last year, “Hopefully, with Flake gone and a larger majority, Senate Republicans can make up lost ground and get Trump’s nominees confirmed at a rapid pace.”

To that end, President Trump has renominated a slate of 51 jurists — including one for Brett Kavanaugh’s old seat and another for a newly created judgeship in the U.S. Court of Military Commission Review — in his latest effort to put a dent in the 140 judicial vacancies currently without nominees. (Six vacancies in various district courts have nominees pending.) One would think that without Flake to gum up the works and an enhanced Senate majority of 53 Republican senators — a majority that makes moderates like Maine’s Susan Collins and Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski less of an obstacle in seating conservative jurists — that Trump’s nominees would sail through.

Unfortunately, minority Democrats have found a new stalling tactic as they try to run out the clock on Trump’s term. Hot Air’s Jazz Shaw points out, “The reason for this [delay is] the fact that Democrats are dragging their feet as much as possible and demanding a full 30 hours of allowable debate after cloture, even in cases where no serious objections have been raised and the candidate will clearly be confirmed anyway.” At 30 hours per nominee, confirmation is like pulling teeth.

Shaw further notes that when Republicans were in the minority during the Obama administration, they reached an informal agreement with Democrats to limit debate to eight hours. It’s doubtful Chuck scumbag-Schumer intends to play nice like the GOP did, though.

In that same vein, Washington Examiner analyst Quin Hillyer suggests that those holdovers previously nominated be waived through the Senate committee process. According to Senate rules, the leadership can order that nominees bypass committee, writes Hillyer, and in this case it’s appropriate because the nominees were vetted by the previous Congress. This process wouldn’t be used for new nominees, but it could clear the backlog.

During the scumbag/liar-nObama administration, Democrats tried to paint Republicans as constituting a “do-nothing Congress.” Now that we have a Democrat-controlled House bent on investigating Donald Trump and a rump coalition of 47 Democrat senators who exist simply to be obstinate rather than do the people’s business, these suggestions have been placed in the hopper. Trump can now at least focus on the judicial branch — a task that’s always time well spent. But he’s going to need help from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.  ~The Patriot Post

Sarah Sanders: Roger Stone Indictment 
'Has Nothing to Do With The President'

{cnsnews.com} ~ "I can tell you the specific charges brought against Mr. Stone don't have anything to do with the president,"... White House spokewoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders told CNN’s “New Day” on Friday morning, shortly after longtime Trump associate Roger Stone was arrested at his Florida home on charges of obstruction, making false statements and witness tampering. Asked for her reaction, Sanders said, "Real simple, this has nothing to do with the president and certainly nothing to do with the White House. This is something that has to do solely with that individual, and not something that affects us in this building. "Sanders noted that the Special Prosecutor’s case aginst Roger Stone is "about whether or not he made false statements." "We'll let the courts make that decision,” Sander said. “I think a bigger question is, if this is the standard, will that same standard apply to people like scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton, scumbag-James Comey, scumbag-Clapper?

{spectator.org} ~ At the beginning of the Trump presidency, a few cautious editors, such as the Wall Street Journal’s Gerard Baker, questioned the media’s open embrace of biased reporting... Baker warned reporters that they should stick to demonstrable facts and avoid jumping to any conclusions beyond them. Leave those conclusions to your readers, he argued. He, for example, didn’t care for the practice of reporters labeling Trump’s misstatements “lies,” which he rightly saw as an editorial judgment masquerading as news: The difference is not what I think or what I might express and an opinion or even given reasonable grounds to believe, but what my reporters can report as facts. And if you’re going to report as a fact that something is a lie, you have to know that it’s not only an untruth, not only a falsehood, you have to be able to be able to impute two things in the mind of the speaker: one, knowledge that it is actually untrue; and two, a deliberate intent to deceive. And I can see circumstances, perhaps, that Donald Trump or indeed anybody else for that matter, that they have enough evidence to know that it’s truth, and that I would be able to infer from their falsehood that they were telling a lie. But it’s a pretty high bar. Our reporters are very careful about imputing motives to people that go beyond the evidence. We are very strict about this. We don’t impute jealousy or hatred or various other things. It is a judgment making a call about whether or not someone is lying. And again, I don’t rule it out completely. I said I’m careful about it. And I think that most people should be careful about it. Baker was widely mocked for this stance. But had reporters listened to him, they might have spared themselves countless acts of journalistic malpractice during the course of the Trump presidency. In the last week, reporters couldn’t resist jumping to judgments about bogus stories alleging that Trump suborned perjury and that some MAGA-hat-wearing youth had accosted a Native American, both perfect storms of anti-Trump prejudice...
Congress’ Nonpartisan Research Arm Says Trump Could
Have DOD Build A Wall Without State of Emergency

{thepoliticalinsider.com} ~ The nonpartisan Congressional Research Service (CRS) released a paper internally that suggests President Donald Trump may have the authority to use Department of Defense resources... to build a wall without obtaining congressional approval or declaring a state of emergency. CRS, Congress’s in-house research arm, internally published a paper Jan. 10 titled “Can the Department of Defense Build the Border Wall?,” which The Daily Caller News Foundation has obtained. Another statute that authorizes the Secretary of Defense to assist civilian law enforcement with counterdrug activities may provide some authority for the construction of barriers along the border. 10 U.S.C. § 284 (Section 284) provides that the Secretary of Defense “may provide support for the counterdrug activities or activities to counter transnational organized crime” of any law enforcement agency, including through the “construction of roads and fences and installation of lighting to block drug smuggling corridors across international boundaries of the United States.” … Use of Section 284 would not require a declaration of a national emergency under the NEA. However, the DOD’s Section 284 authority to construct fences appears to extend only to “drug smuggling corridors,” a condition that may limit where DOD could deploy fencing.“Drug corridors” are not defined in law, according to a congressional aide. The president has suggested using executive authority as a workaround to the stalemate that led to the partial government shutdown. House Democrats have refused to allocate $5.7 billion Trump requested to build part of a wall along the southern border, and the president has refused to support legislation opening the government that does not include border wall funding. Trump said Jan. 4 that he has considered using a “state of emergency” to build the wall. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley urged Trump not to declare a state of emergency, expressing concerns about overreach and setting a precedent that Democrats could also use when in power...

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel have signed a new Franco-German friendship treaty aimed at reinvigorating the European Union... which has been buffeted by the European debt crisis, mass migration and Brexit — as well as innumerable conflicting interests and priorities among its 28 member states. France and Germany, the self-appointed guardians of European integration, have said that the new treaty is a response to the growing influence of populists in Austria, Britain, France, Italy, Hungary, Poland and other European countries who are seeking to slow, and even reverse, European integration by recouping national sovereignty from the European Union and transferring those powers back to national capitals. The continental showdown, which threatens to split the European Union down the middle between Eurosceptic nationalists and Europhile globalists, will heat up in coming weeks, ahead of elections for the European Parliament in late May 2019. The "Aachen Treaty" Traité d'Aix-la-Chapelle; Vertrag von Aachen, signed on January 22 in the German city of Aachen, consists of 28 articles organized into seven chapters; both states commit to closer cooperation in a series of policy areas. The first eight articles, which encompass bilateral foreign and defense policy as well as the European Union, are the most ambitious and consequential items in the treaty...

Jackson Lee Sunk by #MeToo Trouble
BWFg1ym_qv8qYlUvQToFshd_jYfultVbrBjz-qjnLmzDyzB_q1lbEcWRmRF9c517pZef0pqQfrkS_rkT6SpCGncYcCgHDEUdlWc1HcOxXpvT3pmlz-Z8jL3WOhJ-PZZ6gtyuoV5qo1RuVFKwssPifYbMDRRC8-b_RGebnbc=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?profile=RESIZE_710x
by Political Editors:  Wednesday brought another scalp of the #MeToo movement, and this time it was a black woman. Democrat Texas Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee resigned as chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and “temporarily” gave up her gavel as chair of the House Judiciary Committee’s subcommittee on crime, though she’ll retain her House seat — for now. Why? There are, according to The Daily Wire, “claims that she retaliated against a former staffer who accused a Congressional Black Caucus aide of sexual assault.”

The Wire lays out the sequence of events:

The staffer, who goes by the name “Jane Doe” in the complaint, claims she was drugged and then raped by a prominent aide to the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation after a group event several years ago, when she was an intern for the group (the alleged perpetrator, she says, was her intern coordinator). Although Doe went to the police at the time and had a rape kit completed, she chose not to pursue the case any further.

Years later, while working as a staffer in Jackson Lee’s office, Doe found herself faced with the possibility of working alongside her alleged attacker; Jackson Lee’s office was floating the former CBC Foundation aide as a potential addition to the office. She approached Jackson Lee’s chief of staff to voice her concerns, and added that she planned on now pursuing legal action against her alleged attacker, if possible.

Jackson Lee’s chief of staff allegedly told Doe he would take her concerns to the congresswoman, but no meeting on the subject was ever set. Instead, two weeks later, Jane Doe was fired.

After a week of mounting pressure to step aside, Jackson Lee finally did. She insists she’s innocent and that she’ll be “exonerated,” but the very fact of her actions says there’s something to these accusations. We also know the Democrat Party has a very checkered history regarding the treatment of women. Yet they continue to throw stones from their glass house.  ~The Patriot Post

{foxnews.com} ~ The chairwoman of the Republican Party is expected to win another two-year term in office Friday... during the closing day of the Republican National Committee’s winter meeting. Ronna McDaniel took command of the party’s leadership in 2017 and members gathered at a New Mexico resort this week are set to keep her in charge. “I think there’s no sunlight between any member of this committee and the chairman,” Harmeet Dhillon of California told Fox News on Thursday morning. “We all think she’s done an amazing job and is going to be unanimously elected tomorrow.” Earlier this week, McDaniel wrote an op-ed on FoxNews.com marking the two-year mark of the Trump administration. “President Trump will not be deterred from doing what is right for the American people,” she wrote. “As he enters the third year of his presidency, there is much more success still to come, and many more promises to be fulfilled for our future.”...  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ronna-mcdaniel-expected-to-coast-to-re-election-as-rnc-chairman?utm_source=american-truth_org
dirty cop-Mueller Has Found 'Almost No Crimes'
From Before Russia Probe Started

{insider.foxnews.com} ~ The indictment of Roger Stone is a "typical dirty cop-Mueller indictment," according to Alan Dershowitz... Stone, a former political adviser  to President Trump, has been indicted on charges of obstruction, making false statements and witness tampering as part of Special Counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller's investigation. On "America's Newsroom" Friday, Dershowitz, a Harvard Law professor emeritus, said the indictment is full of "stories" of Russian collusion, but all the actual charges are a result of the investigation. "This is typical of dirty cop-Mueller. He has found almost no crimes that occurred before he was appointed special counsel," Dershowitz said, adding that's dirty cop-Mueller was appointed to find such crimes and he's "virtually failed" in that respect. "Almost all of his crimes that's he's indicted people for are crimes that resulted from his investigation," Dershowitz said. He noted, however, the fact that Stone's alleged crimes were generated by the dirty cop-Mueller probe does not make them any less criminal. "But it really means that there's been a failure to uncover the basic crimes for which he was appointed. Namely, before he was appointed, was there illegal collusion, illegal conspiracy with Russia?"
Democrat on House Judiciary Committee 
accuses Brett Kavanaugh of perjury

{patriotnewsalerts.com} ~ A newly elected Democrat is trying to make a big splash in his first month in Congress. Rep. Joe Neguse (D-CO), who is on the House Judiciary Committee, said earlier this week... that the committee is “likely” to look into allegations that Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh committed perjury during his confirmation hearings last fall — meaning they could even consider impeachment. “There’s no question Kavanaugh committed perjury during the confirmation hearings and so forth,” “I think the Judiciary Committee is likely to take that up.”Neguse’s claims all center around Kavanaugh’s testimony during his confirmation hearings last November.In particular, Neguse is skeptical of what Kavanaugh said about the allegations first lodged against him by Deborah Ramirez. While testifying, Kavanaugh said he did not know about the allegations until a story was published in The New Yorker. But according to NBC, he spoke of the accusations in text messages before the New Yorker report was published. Now, lawmakers are trying to decide whether he was purposely misleading or he simply misspoke — and all signs point toward the latter. The general belief is that Kavanaugh was contacted to comment on the story in the New Yorker before it was actually published. His assumption then was the story was already out — not that the person contacting him had early knowledge of the article. In the end, this Judiciary Committee investigation is going to wind up to be a massive waste of taxpayer money and create yet more division in this country...

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ The Rosenstein /dirty cop-Mueller investigation instructed the FBI to conduct a pre-dawn raid and arrest of Roger Stone at 6:00am this morning... CNN was on the scene to broadcast the raid and capture live to their audience. Interestingly as the CNN reporter shares in the video: …”we where here at 5am waiting  for whatever was going to happen, it was dark. 6am Just after the hour”…  Obviously the broadcast theatrics were planned in advance. Using the approach seen before with mass murderers and notorious criminals, the FBI generously permitted exclusive video footage from CNN showing dozens of heavily armed SWAT and FBI officials who surrounded the home of Mr. Stone for impact and value. The CNN glee is, well, a blood lust on full display. The scene provides quite a contrast from how the DOJ and FBI handled the scumbag/liar-Clinton team within prior investigatory events and inquiries. The DOJ could have easily made a phone call and coordinated Mr. Stone turning himself in to authorities as they have done in the past with their political allies. However, for maximum corrupt visibility – the raid gives a more favorable optic to the resistance. The event is very fishy.

{clarionproject.org} ~ Google donated $250,000 to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC ) since 2016... The SPLC, a prominent civil rights organization that once fought the Ku Klux Klan, discredited itself in the last number of years by designating those who disagree with its Far-Left agenda as hate groups. Included in that group of named people and organizations was anti-Islamist activist Maajid Nawaz and his organization, the Quilliam Foundation, who was listed on the SPLC’s Field Guide to Anti-Muslim Activists. The list also once included Clarion Project and our national security analyst and Shillman Fellow Ryan Mauro. Clarion’s observant Muslim spokeswoman Raheel Raza was also flagged by the group for being “anti-Muslim.” Ben Carson was placed on the list in 2014. The notorious list, which is offered as a guide for journalists and the like, is a source of damage for those on it. This is due to the fact that not only does the mainstream media use it, but also four of the world’s largest online platforms partner or partnered in the past with the SPLC in determining their designation of hate groups and hate speech. Those tech giants include not only Google, but Facebook, Amazon and Twitter...

{Itownhall.com} ~ n this era when there has been more information available to more people than at any time in the past, it is also true that there has been more misinformation from more different sources than ever. We are not talking about differences of opinion or inadequate verification, but about statements and catchwords in utter defiance of facts.

Among the most popular current catchwords are "climate change deniers." Stop and think. Have you ever -- even once in your entire life -- seen, heard or read even one human being who denied that climates change?

It is hard even to imagine how any minimally knowledgeable person could deny that climates change, when there are fossils of marine creatures in the Sahara Desert. Obviously there has been quite a climate change there.

The next time someone talks about "climate change deniers," ask them to name one -- and tell you just where specifically you can find their words, declaring that climates do not change. You can bet the rent money that they cannot tell you.

Why all this talk about these mythical creatures called "climate change deniers"? Because there are some meteorologists and other scientists who refuse to join the stampede toward drastic economic changes to prevent what others say will be catastrophic levels of "global warming."

There are scientists on both sides of that issue. Presumably the issue could be debated on the basis of evidence and analysis. But this has become a political crusade, and political issues tend to be settled by political means, of which demonizing the opposition with catchwords is one.

It is much the same story on economic issues. Any proposal to reduce income tax rates is sure to bring out claims that these are "tax cuts for the rich," based on the "trickle-down theory" that reducing the taxescollected from the rich will cause some of their wealth to "trickle down" to people with lower incomes.

Here, yet again, all you need to do is think back over your own life, and ask yourself if you have ever -- even once in your entire life -- seen, heard or read a single human being who advocated this "trickle-down theory."

Certainly none of the innumerable fellow economists I have encountered in my 88 years ever advocated any such theory. Nor am I aware of anyone else, in any other walk of life, who has done so.

Yet there are ringing denunciations of the "trickle-down theory" in books, articles, and in politics and the media. That theory has been denounced as far away as India.

The next time someone talks about the "trickle-down" theory, ask them to tell you where specifically you can find the writings, videos or any other evidence of someone advocating that theory. You may get some very clever and creative evasions of your question, but no actual answer.

One of the best-selling history textbooks did name Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon as having said in the 1920s that letting the rich pay less taxes would allow their wealth to "trickle down" to others. It was one of the very rare examples that actually named a name. 

Unfortunately, what this widely used history textbook attributed to Andrew Mellon was the direct opposite of what he actually said. In Mellon's own book, "Taxation," he said that wealthy people were not paying enough tax revenue to the government, because they put their money into tax-exempt securities.

Mellon called it "incredible" that tax laws allowed someone making a million dollars a year to pay not a cent in taxes, and an "almost grotesque" consequence that people of more modest incomes had to make up the shortfall.

He understood, however, that higher tax rates did not automatically mean higher tax revenues. So when the tax law changes that he advocated cut tax rates, the income tax revenues actually hit a record high at that time. Moreover, the rich paid more tax revenue and a much higher percentage of all income tax revenues than before.

Issues in both economics and science can get complicated. But when one side of those issues has to resort to demonstrably false catchwords, that should give us a clue.

{thefederalist.com} ~ Last year, in response to Congress repealing the scumbag/liar-nObamacare individual mandate penalty beginning this January,... the D.C. Council established its own requirement for District residents to maintain health coverage. If D.C. leaders wished to replicate scumbag/liar-nObamacare on the local level, they have succeeded beyond their wildest expectations—right down to the non-functioning website. For nearly six months—including the first month of open enrollment—the District failed to inform visitors to its online insurance exchange about the new coverage requirement. When District officials finally discovered their webpage fail, what did they do to admit their fault, and tell the public? Nothing. When Congress took steps to try and defund the D.C. insurance mandate last summer, District officials complained, calling it an intrusion on their authority. But after having bungled their website and failed to tell the public about the mix-up, how can they now claim competence to manage their own affairs? At the start of the open enrollment period in early November, I went to the District’s health insurance exchange website, D.C. Health Link, to evaluate my coverage options for 2019. While there, I found an intriguing—and misleading—webpage. When discussing whether individuals should purchase coverage, the webpage noted that “federal law requires most Americans to have a minimum level of health coverage,” a requirement that was “still in effect for the 2017 and 2018 tax years.”...  http://thefederalist.com/2019/01/25/exclusive-d-c-exchange-website-misled-customers-individual-mandate/?utm_source=The+Federalist+List&utm_campaign=68c011eb0d-RSS_The_Federalist_Daily_Updates_w_Transom&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_cfcb868ceb-68c011eb0d-83771801

Triple-amputee Air Force veteran  Brian Kolfage says he will not receive any compensation from We Build The Wall Inc., his new Florida-based nonprofit organization, because its bylaws prevent him from doing so. Kolfage’s lawyer provided TheDCNF a draft copy of the bylaws, which includes a section which states: “Mr. Kolfage will take no salary for the performance of his duties as President of the Corporation.” But Kolfage’s lawyer told TheDCNF last Thursday that the bylaws are subject to changes until they’re finalized, which he said would be within two business days. One week later, the lawyer said they’re “still finalizing” the bylaws...

{thefederalist.com} ~ On January 23, President Trump announced his intention to re-nominate 51 judicial nominees that were not confirmed before the end of last year... In November, now-retired senator rino-Jeff Flake “vowed to oppose the president’s judicial nominees until he gets a vote on a bill to protect Special Counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller from being fired.” As reported by BuzzFeed’s Zoe Tillman in a tweeted story, “California nominees for the 9th Circuit and district courts aren’t on the renomination list — two sources familiar with the situation say California Sen.

This matters because one important name, among many, is on that original list that should be carefully considered and recognized: Patrick Bumatay. Carrie Severino wrote a profile on Bumatay’s career that highlights his experience and positions: He is a 40-year-old lawyer working for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of California for the Department of Justice. He was previously nominated to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in California. He graduated from Yale University and Harvard Law School and is an active member of the Federalist Society. He is an originalist in the mold of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and has worked on the nominations for several Supreme Court judges.

U.S. Government Hit 
by Major Iranian Cyber Operation
by Annie Fixler

{fdd.org} ~ The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued an emergency directive on Tuesday... 
to all federal agencies to take immediate steps to combat a campaign to redirect internet traffic to websites controlled by malicious actors. Although DHS did not link this series of malicious operations to Iran, private cyber threat researchers at FireEye concluded that the evidence points to Iranian sponsorship. This operation follows a trend of global Iranian cyber campaigns, as identified in a November FDD report.  While FireEye could only conclude “with moderate confidence” that Iranian actors were responsible for the operation, the firm noted that the “activity aligns with Iranian government interests.” This is consistent with  assessments that the Islamic Republic relies on quasi-independent groups to conduct its cyber attacks. In an in-depth study of the cyber threat landscape in Iran, threat intelligence firm Recorded Future concluded that there is “consistent evidence” that cyber operations emanating from Iran are “government-sponsored.” The scale of this two-year operation is unprecedented. FireEye discovered related activity dating back to January 2017, predating the Trump administration’s maximum pressure campaign against Iran and the U.S. withdrawal from the nuclear deal between Iran and the international community. “We found at least 50 different organizations affected across at least 12 countries — and that’s just what we’ve found so far,” a FireEye senior manager told The Washington Post. According to FireEye  and Cisco, the “sophisticated” and “innovative” campaign used at least three different methods to manipulate “Domain Name System” (DNS) records, which translate URLs into numerical IP addresses so that internet users’ requests reach the intended websites. “DNS hijacking” enables hackers to decrypt the redirected internet traffic, read emails, and steal credentials...

New York Expands Culture of Death

by Jordan Candler:  Thanks to legislative approval of the deceptively titled Reproductive Health Act, Tuesday marked another dark period for children in New York, some of whom will be legally terminated days, hours, or even minutes before they would otherwise experience life outside the womb. Given that Tuesday was the 46th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the day was already doleful. But that didn’t stop state lawmakers from imposing an even grimmer reality.

According to National Review, the Reproductive Health Act had already cleared the state assembly, where 92 members voted to approve it and just 47 voted against it. The legislation was then voted on by the state senate on Tuesday. The vote there was 38-24. Unsurprisingly, New York Gov. evil-Andrew Cuomo — a Democrat and a Catholic — will sign it with glee.

CBS New York reports, “Provisions in the bill include dropping most restrictions on abortions after 24 weeks, allowing midwives and nurse practitioners to perform abortions and ending criminal charges for harming children in the womb.”

Stacey Lennox at The Resurgent underscores an extremely important point, “The impact … is two-fold. First, nearly all criminal penalties are removed for killing a baby inside the womb. A mother who is 30 weeks pregnant and stabbed in the abdomen, killing her unborn child, will see no prosecution for the death of her baby. Next, because of definitions in previous court rulings … those factors that relate to the health of a woman are broadly defined… So in New York, no one can be prosecuted for the deliberate or accidental killing of an unborn child and health is so broadly defined as to make almost any issue sufficient for a woman to request an abortion. … New York just legalized Kermit Gosnell.”

evil-Cuomo, for his part, asserted, “The Reproductive Health Act is a historic victory for New Yorkers and for our progressive values. In the face of a federal government intent on rolling back Roe v. Wade and women’s reproductive rights, I promised that we would enact this critical legislation within the first 30 days of the new session — and we got it done. I am directing that New York’s landmarks be lit in pink to celebrate this achievement and shine a bright light forward for the rest of the nation to follow.”

That last part isn’t a farce; it’s sick. As The Daily Signal reports, the governor instructed “that the spire at One World Trade Center, the Governor Mario M. evil-Cuomo Bridge, the Kosciuszko Bridge and the Alfred E. Smith Building in Albany all be lit in pink on Tuesday night.” Blood red would have been a more appropriate color.

“It’s bittersweet,” evil-Cuomo fretted. “There is a bitterness because we shouldn’t be here in the first place. We should not have a federal government that is trying to roll back women’s rights. … This administration defies American evolution.” Sadly, the Left cares more about “American evolution” than God’s creation.

Ironically, this new legislation was enacted during a time of dwindling abortion figures. As The Daily Wire notes, “According to the New York State Department of Health, 87,325 abortions took place in New York state during 2016. According to The Centers for Disease Control (CDC), there were 93,096 abortions in New York during 2015. The Guttmacher Institute reported that there were roughly 119,940 abortions in New York during 2014.”

All this goes to show that for the Left, abortion really is a religion. And the Left is willing to sacrifice as many children — with as much ease — as possible to foster it. For those trying to understand today’s terrible political and cultural climate, start with deciphering the breadth and acceptance of such blatant evil.  ~The Patriot Post

U.S. Hits Iranian-Backed Militias 
in Syria with New Sanctions
by David Adesnik

{fdd.org} ~ The Treasury Department imposed terrorism and human rights sanctions today on two militias fighting in Syria under Iran’s direction... 
The Fatemiyoun Division  and Zeynabioun Brigade both play leading roles in the Iranian-led force fighting on behalf of Bashar al-Assad, enabling him to remain in power and continue waging a war that has cost hundreds of thousands of lives. The Fatemiyoun consists of Afghan Shiites, recruited mainly from the poor Afghan migrant community in Iran, which numbers roughly three million. Iranian sources claim that there are 12,000 or more fighters in the division, although this is likely an exaggeration. The scholar Ali Alfoneh has documented the death of more than 900 Afghan Shiites in Syria, based on public information about their funerals. In response to heavy casualties, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei met publicly with the families of fallen fighters to express his gratitude and offer condolences. The Treasury Department noted that the Fatemiyoun’s ranks include child soldiers as young as 14. In October 2017, non-governmental organizations published  evidence of the recruitment of child soldiers by the Quds Force of Tehran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC-QF), itself sanctioned for terrorism since 2007. The Zeynabioun Brigade consists of Pakistani Shiites, who initially fought with the Fatemiyoun until they had sufficient personnel for their own unit. Older estimates suggest the Zeynabioun has 1,000 fighters or less, although Iranian sources claim as much as 5,000. Alfoneh has documented  158 Pakistani fatalities in Syria. Treasury’s announcement of sanctions said that the Zeynabioun recruits mainly “from among undocumented and impoverished Pakistani Shiite immigrants living in Iran.” Press reports indicate the brigade also recruits in Pakistan itself...

by Haris Alic
A growing number of House Democrats are bucking Speaker Nancy Pulosi (Calif.) in support of GOP efforts to ensure federal workers get paid during the ongoing government shutdown... House Republicans introduced a motion on Thursday to supplant Pulosi's proposal to reopen the government, offering in its place legislation to fund federal employee salaries until a permanent solution could be forged. Although it ultimately failed by a narrow margin of 214 to 200, the motion picked up more support from moderate and freshman Democrats than previous attempts. In total, 13 members of the House majority crossed the aisle to vote with their Republican colleagues. A similar motion from last week enticed the support of only 6 Democrats, while a nearly identical initiative on  Wednesday garnered the backing of 10 Democrats. The growing defections have all come from Democrats who have been openly critical of Pulosi's negotiating style. The vote, although unsuccessful, seems to signal Democrats are unsupportive of Pulosi's recalcitrant opposition to any deal that includes funding for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. Freshman representative Ben McAdams (Utah), who has expressed support for Democrats compromising with the president on some form of "barrier construction," voted for the motion on Wednesday and Thursday, despite opposing it initially...

{freebeacon.com} ~ A ruling by Iran's highest court against two U.S. citizens imprisoned there renders a broad category of U.S. citizens more vulnerable to being imprisoned if they travel to Iran or nearby countries... an attorney for the pair said Thursday. The ruling could also make family members of senior Iranian government officials who live and work in the United States  vulnerable to being jailed and unjustly charged, the attorney, Jared Genser, said in a lengthy statement. Earlier this month, Iran confirmed that it had arrested and jailed U.S. navy veteran Michael White, who was visiting a woman he said was his girlfriend. The two met online about four or five years ago and he has traveled to Iran to visit her four times over the last several years, his mother told news outlets. There are at least 14 Iranian dual or foreign nationals that Iran has arrested and imprisoned since 2014, according to Human Rights Watch. Amnesty International puts the number at 15, including Iranian-Americans Siamak Namazi and his father Baquer Namazi, Chinese-American Xiyue Wang, and Nizar Zakka, a Lebanese national and permanent U.S. resident. This is the second time an Iranian court rejected the Namazis' appeals. The Namazis' first appeals were rejected in August of 2017...

{dailycaller.com} ~ VHouse Intelligence Committee Chair scumbag-Adam Schiff defended himself Tuesday against  Donald Trump Jr.’s accusation of leaking... by stating he didn’t “leak” testimony, but rather he exposed it. “That’s not a leak, it is exposure of his non-cooperation and his stonewalling of our committee,” scumbag-Schiff responded when CNN’s Wolf Blitzer confronted him about Trump’s allegation.“He’s been making this claim all along. What upsets Don Jr., and I can understand why he’s upset, is he was saying publicly, ‘I’m fully cooperating with Congress, I’m answering all their questions,” scumbag-Schiff said. “Then he goes before our committee and refuses to answer a whole host of questions, making completely fallacious claims of privilege, and we called him out on it as we have done with other witnesses.” Trump told Fox News earlier in the day he believes “there’s a 99.9 percent chance scumbag-Schiff is the guy” who has been leaking private testimony that he gave in 2017 when he appeared before the House Intelligence Committee to discuss the now-infamous Trump Tower meeting...

{thewashingtonstandard.com} ~ Recently, former Secretary of State hanoi-John Kerry called on President Trump to resign during a Tuesday appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland... While hanoi-Kerry’s statement has been carried by many media sources, as well as him being asked if he plans to run for president in 2020, no one is asking the most important question of all:  Why is hanoi-Kerry still attending important world functions and meeting with world leaders? Since Donald Trump became president in 2016, both hanoi-John Kerry and Barack H. scumbag/liar-nObama have been traveling around the world, on our dime, acting as if they were still running the USA. Both attended the Climate Summit, met with world leaders in their own countries numerous times, and hanoi-Kerry even met with Iranian officials and other world leaders to try to save the nuclear deal President Trump scrapped. Presumably, the flight Nancy Pulosi, scumbag-Adam Schiff, and other Socialist Leftists were going to take recently on an extravagant world vacation disguised as a business trip to visit troops in Afghanistan and other stops in Egypt and Europe would have coincided with some of hanoi-Kerry’s itinerary.  This means that key people in the former scumbag/liar-nObama Administration are still acting as if scumbag/liar-nObama were still president by making deals with world leaders. The meetup with hanoi-Kerry, scumbag/liar-nObama, and others by the Pulosi entourage tells us that the US is being governed by two factions. The legitimate government of the Trump Administration, but also the Defacto US government of the scumbag/liar-nObama reign...

Restoring Common Census

by Arnold Ahlert:  On Jan. 15, U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman blocked the Trump administration’s efforts to put a question regarding citizenship on the 2020 census. “Hundreds of thousands — if not millions — of people will go uncounted in the census if the citizenship question is included,” the judge declared. People? More like many of the 22 million illegal aliens residing in America, if a recent study conducted by professors from Yale and MIT is accurate.

According to Furman, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, tasked with conducting the Census, dropped the ball. “In arriving at his decision as he did, Secretary Ross violated the law” and “the public trust,” the judge asserted. Furman further insisted the Administrative Procedures Act requires an agency to “consider all important aspects of a problem; study the relevant evidence and arrive at a decision rationally supported by that evidence; comply with all applicable procedures.”

According to Furman, Ross “fell short on all these fronts.”

Ross fell short? Furman, an appointee of Barack scumbag/liar-nObama, was forced to concede that Ross’s efforts are “not inconsistent with the Constitution,” and that the plaintiffs “did not carry their burden of proving that Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross was motivated by invidious discrimination and thus that he violated the equal protection component of the due process clause.” Nonetheless, Furman declared that nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) will suffer “a loss of political power and funds, among other harms,” if a citizenship question is included on the census.

Which NGOs? The plaintiffs included the New York Immigration Coalition, CASA de Maryland, the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee/ADC Research Institute, and Make the Road New York. These are largely radical leftist organizations partially funded by taxpayers via government grants — grants that can be dependent on census totals.

In other words, it’s about money. Yet Furman also rejected Ross’s rationale for including the question. Ross wanted to promote enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. Furman dismissed that concern as “pretextual,” adding that the citizenship question elicited “near uniform opposition to the addition of the citizenship question from stakeholders.”

The stakeholders to whom Furman refers are groups who wield influence over Census Bureau’s National Advisory Committee on Race and Ethnicity. They are joined by other outside groups who reside within the Committee. Virtually all of them are radical leftist entities whose interests and objectives have little to do with the well-being of the nation as a whole.

Furman’s ruling is the first of many, as additional lawsuits filed by several states and cities are also aimed to block a question that hasn’t appeared on the Census since 1950.

Hans von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation, criticized the decision, saying, “I don’t see how a judge can say there’s something wrong with wanting to get data on the number of citizens and noncitizens in the country because that information is, I think, vital to having an educated debate about immigration policy.”

Who wants to have that educated debate? Certainly not the Democrat Party, half the GOP, Hollywood, academia, the media, or corporate America. All of them embrace the globalist agenda of open borders, sanctuary cities, and the ongoing dilution of immigration law enforcement efforts they deem “racist” and “xenophobic.”

And what about an educated debate about voting? The Washington Post’s David Gans asserts the Voting Rights Act is “in tatters” because in 2013 the Supreme Court eliminated the flagrantly outdated and unconstitutional idea that “racist” states still required “preclearance” to change their voting requirements. “Our democracy hasn’t been the same since,” Gans laments. “In 2018, as in past years, voter suppression ran rife.”

Not quite. Voter turnout for the 2018 midterm election hit a 50-year high. Moreover, according to Ben Ray Luján, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), Latinos increased their participation by 174%, and black Americans by 157%, compared to the previous midterm elections.

What’s really in tatters is the progressive Narrative that asserts any effort to clean up voter rolls or impose voter ID requirements is de facto racism. Yet as a Judicial Watch lawsuit against California revealed, data provided to and published by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission showed Los Angeles County with a voter a registration rate of 112% of its adult citizen population. The state has an overall registration rate of about 101% of its age-eligible citizenry.

California is hardly an outlier. According to a 2017 article by Deroy Murdock, there are 462 counties nationwide where the voter registration rate exceeded 100%.

There is nothing remotely racist about cleaning up this (often orchestrated) mess. Moreover, the real racism with regard to voting is the assertion that some Americans of particular ethnic groups or genders are inherently incapable of acquiring the same ID that everyone else is apparently capable of procuring.

The DOJ is unlikely to let Furman’s decision to stand. “Our government is legally entitled to include a citizenship question on the census and people of the United States have a legal obligation to answer,” Kelly Laco, a Justice Department spokeswoman, said in a statement. “Reinstating the citizenship question ultimately protects the right to vote and helps ensure free and fair elections for all Americans.”

Does the Left want free and fair elections? The 1993 National Voter Registration Act and the 2002 Help America Vote Act require each state to maintain accurate voter rolls. Yet as the above evidence indicates, these laws are often ignored.

Yet there is something far more important at stake here: It is data from the U.S. Census that determines the number of members from each state who are elected to the House of Representatives. Thus, states with large numbers of illegal aliens will unconstitutionally gain members in that chamber, and deny citizens of other states of their rightful representation. Moreover, those same states will receive a disproportionately larger share of federal funding — which arguably incentivizes the addition of noncitizens to a state’s population.

Is that what the citizens of America want? “This ruling is a forceful rebuke of the Trump administration’s attempt to weaponize the census for an attack on immigrant communities,” insisted the American Civil Liberties Union in a statement.

Immigrant communities are under attack? In the last couple of years, the Left has advocated for the elimination of the Electoral College, the reapportionment of the Senate to reflect population totals, same-day voter registration, ballot harvesting, and a repeal of voter ID requirements. In other words, leftists want mob rule enabled by an increasingly unidentifiable mob they insist would never, ever cast votes illegally.

“Inadvertently” or falsely registered voters, “dead” voters, voters registered in more than one state, or voters fraudulently casting ballots in places like CaliforniaVirginiaPennsylvaniaIndiana, or Texas suggest otherwise.

The Census Bureau is required to finalize its 2020 questionnaire by June of this year. The Trump administration must seek a stay of Furman’s ruling at the Second Circuit Court. If that fails, the Supreme Court should accept an expedited review.

The alternative? The continuing devaluation of citizenship and Rule of Law. It doesn’t get more globalist than that.  ~The Patriot Post

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ FBI agents arrested longtime Trump associate Roger Stone in a paramilitary-style raid at his home in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., early Friday morning... A CNN producer on the scene said the arrest involved "heavy weaponry." Stone was taken into custody without incident. The arrest followed action by a grand jury in Washington, D.C., under Trump-Russia special counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller. On Thursday, the grand jury indicted Stone on seven counts of lying to Congress, witness tampering, and obstructing a congressional investigation. So what, specifically, is Stone charged with doing? All the counts stem from Stone's Sept. 26, 2017, interview with the House Intelligence Committee investigating Russia's attempt to influence the 2016 election and response by U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies. Stone is not charged with lying to or attempting to obstruct the dirty cop-Mueller investigation. The special counsel's charges involve Stone's House testimony about WikiLeaks and its release of hacked material from the Democratic National Committee and, later, from scumbag/liar-Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta during the 2016 campaign. The indictment does not say Stone communicated with Wikileaks head Julian Assange. Rather, it says Stone lied about his attempts to learn Assange's intentions through two intermediaries: journalist and provocateur Jerome Corsi and radio host Randy Credico. Count One alleges that Stone obstructed the House committee's investigation by denying he had emails and other documents about WikiLeaks-related contacts. During his House testimony, Stone was asked if he had "emails to anyone concerning the allegations of hacked documents ... or any discussions you have had with third parties about WikiLeaks?" Stone answered that he did not, when in fact he had a bunch of emails and other communications. The obstruction charge also alleges Stone attempted to prevent Credico from testifying or tried to convince him to testify falsely... This is a bunch of BS.  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/in-new-mueller-indictment-what-is-roger-stone-charged-with-doing?utm_source=WEX_News%20Brief_01/25/2019&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WEX_News%20Brief

{cnsnews.com} ~ Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told Fox News on Wednesday night that President Trump is "brilliant" to stake out "middle" ground in his quest for wall funding... while House Speaker Nancy Pulosi (D-Calif.) is alienating some in her own party for her inflexible stand against wall funding. "President Trump made a brilliant political move, and good for the country, to go to the middle -- wall plus DACA plus TPS. I've had more Democratic senators talk to me in the last two days than talk to me in the last 30 days," Graham said. "The harder Nancy Pulosi goes left and the more Trump goes to the middle, we're going to get this thing solved."The Senate on Thursday will take up two measures, neither of which is expected to pass. One, proposed by Democrats, would temporarily reopen those government agencies that are partially shut down, giving both sides time to negotiate border security while allowing federal workers to get paid. The other is President Trump's proposal -- a resumption of government funding in exchange for wall money and other border security measures as well as a three-year extension of legal status for DACA recipients and people with Temporary Protected Status (TPS). Graham said neither proposal will get the required 60 votes. That's when "the hard work starts," he said...
Nancy Pulosi Prepares Border Security 
Package Despite Ongoing Shutdown

{thepoliticalinsider.com} ~ Speaker of the House Nancy Pulosi is reportedly preparing a spending package for border-security measures despite the ongoing government shutdown... Pulosi is considering this spending package despite vowing to not negotiate on any border-security measures until the current shutdown is ended. Here’s what she said in a recent statement regarding Trump’s latest proposal to reopen the government and build a border wall in exchange for offering a safety period to so-called DACA recipients: “Democrats were hopeful that the President was finally willing to re-open government and proceed with a much-need discussion to protect the border. Unfortunately, initial reports make clear that his proposal is a compilation of several previously rejected initiatives, each of which is unacceptable and in total, do not represent a good faith effort to restore certainty to people’s lives.” Pulosi is playing hardball, refusing to acknowledge or consider any deal that would give Trump anything he wants on border security in order to open the government. But, it appears, that may be changing. Politico reports this morning that Pulosi is considering a border-security spending measure in order to entice Trump into reopening the government. From Politico Playbook: “Look around. SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI (D-CALIF.) and her Democratic leadership are cobbling together a $5-billion-plus border security offer — a big step for a party that said it wouldn’t negotiate with the government closed. Freshman Democrats seem more itchy to find a way to end this as the days go on.”...  https://thepoliticalinsider.com/nancy-pelosi-border-security/?utm_campaign=TPI_breaking_newsletter_1_24_2019&utm_source=criticalimpact&utm_medium=email&utm_content=4b4ea4948726422aa6473c7b9fa19141&source=CI

{freebeacon.com} ~ Rep. Nita Lowey (D., N.Y.) on Thursday admitted Democrats have "no consensus" on how to secure the U.S.-Mexico border... Lowey, the chairwoman of the House Appropriations Committee, appeared on MSNBC to discuss the government shutdown and highlight Democrats' push to fund the rest of the government before negotiating border security funding. "There's a new offer that will be coming from the Democrats that includes potentially up to $5.7 billion or more for border security, including funding for a smart wall. Can you tell us exactly what a smart wall is?" Host Katy Tur asked. Lowey said the proposal that Tur mentioned was "interesting" but said there was "no consensus" currently. She added, "When the government is open, we will work together, hopefully in a bipartisan way. And I want you to know as an appropriator, I always work across the aisle. And then we'll come up with a plan that makes sense." House Democrats announced on Wednesday that they were readying a funding counteroffer to President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly asked for $5.7 billion to fund the border wall. Rep. Bennie Thompson (D., Miss.), chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, told reporters they would "meet or exceed" $5.7 billion for border security, but they wouldn't provide money for a physical wall... What the hell are they talking about.  https://freebeacon.com/politics/house-appropriations-chair-admits-democrats-have-no-consensus-on-how-to-secure-border/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=07fa4c9ede-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_03_19_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-07fa4c9ede-45611665

{freebeacon.com} ~ Rep. commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) on Thursday slammed Glenn Kessler, a columnist for the Washington Post‘s "Fact Checker," after he gave her a "Three Pinocchio" rating... Kessler published a fact check Thursday morning in response to commie-Ocasio-Cortez's comments earlier in the week about minimum wage and a living wage. He rated it false, but commie-Ocasio-Cortez blasted the research he used in the fact check. "If the point of fact-checking is to enforce some objective standard, why would @GlennKesslerWP use a Walmart-funded think tank as reference material for wage fairness?" commie-Ocasio- Cortez tweeted. "That’s like citing the foxes to fact-check the hens."The author of the study that commie-Ocasio-Cortez implied was corrupted by corporations is former President scumbag/liar-nObama's chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, Jason Furman. Kessler pointed this out in a pair of reply tweets that added further information...

Pulosi's SOTU Shutdown

by Nate Jackson:  “Trump caves.” “Pulosi wins.” Those are the types of headlines circulating today after President Donald Trump announced Wednesday night, “As the Shutdown was going on, Nancy Pulosi asked me to give the State of the Union Address. I agreed. She then changed her mind because of the Shutdown, suggesting a later date. This is her prerogative — I will do the Address when the Shutdown is over. I am not looking for an alternative venue for the SOTU Address because there is no venue that can compete with the history, tradition and importance of the House Chamber. I look forward to giving a ‘great’ State of the Union Address in the near future!”

This back and forth has now continued for more than a week as the two continue to tussle over the 34-day-old partial government shutdown, now the longest in history. (Meanwhile, 800,000 government workers will almost certainly miss another paycheck Friday.) Trump sent Pulosi a letter announcing his intent to accept her original invitation to give the SOTU on Jan. 29. She responded with a letter denying the president access to the House chamber.

Trump’s concession was, for him, remarkably magnanimous. He entertained suggestions to give the speech from the Oval Office, the Senate chamber, the border, or some other venue — any of which arguably would have elevated the address by setting it apart from the increasingly pompous spectacle it has become. What better way to “drain the Swamp” than to blow up an unnecessary and vacuous tradition? It would seem, however, that Trump the Showman determined that conceding this battle may help him win the war.

Yet how that victory will come is not at all evident. Democrats are reportedly ready to reopen the government and give Trump $5.7 billion for border security with one huge caveat: The money isn’t for a wall. Given that Democrats have already rejected Trump’s concessions on Dreamers, it’s clear they’re negotiating in bad faith. Perhaps Trump is calculating that the more disruption is caused by the shutdown — like no SOTU — the more likely Democrats are to eventually cave. But Pulosi has called the border wall “immoral” and we’re inclined to think she’d rather not sit behind Trump sucking her teeth in defeat while he exults in his triumph at the podium. So where this goes from here is anyone’s guess.

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ President Trump on Friday agreed to temporarily end the government shutdown without any guarantee of more money for his border wall after the five-week funding lapse had started... to significantly hobble government operations. "We have reached a deal to end the shutdown and reopen the federal government," Trump said at the White House. Trump said he could agree to reopen the shuttered parts of government through Feb. 15, a move that will let hundreds of thousands of federal workers finally get paid. But Trump also hinted that if Congress can't pass legislation funding his border wall by the middle of next month, he would be forced to declare a national emergency at the border. That move would let Trump spend emergency funds to build parts of his wall, although it's also expected to draw a legal challenge. "We really have no choice but to build a powerful wall or steel barrier," Trump said toward the end of his speech. "If we don't get a fair deal from Congress, the government will either shut down on Feb. 15, again, or I will use the powers afforded to me under the laws and the Constitution of the United States to address this emergency. We will have great security." Trump hinted at that option earlier in his speech as well...

{breitbart.com} ~ President Donald Trump is still considering delivering a major speech to the country next week... despite his decision to postpone his State of the Union address. Former Deputy Assistant to the president Sebastion Gorka revealed in an interview with Breitbart News Daily on Sirius XM Patriot Channel 125 on Thursday that supporters should not be surprised if Trump ended up speaking to the country anyway. “It might not be called the State of the Union, but there will be an address, from a very very interesting location, held very soon by the president,” Gorka said. Gorka now hosts his own radio show “America First” on the Salem Radio Network. Gorka and other talk radio hosts met with the president last week for an off the record meeting to discuss the ongoing shutdown. The White House did not confirm or deny any of the president’s plans when contacted by Breitbart News for comment...

Circuit... and two nominees for the liberal 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The nominations are going back to the Senate after having been left over from the previous Congress. In many cases, Democrats in the minority used delaying tactics to hold up the nominations. “I truly appreciate the prompt attention President Trump and his White House team have shown to judicial nominations,” Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in a statement. “I also appreciate the list of 51 impressive judicial nominations to fulfill the Senate’s constitutional role in advice and consent,” Graham added. “The committee will immediately begin working on these important nominations...  https://www.dailysignal.com/2019/01/24/trump-targets-9th-circuit-kavanaughs-former-seat-among-51-judicial-renominations/?utm_source=TDS_Email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=CapitolBell&mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTldVeE9UQTFOalE0T0ROayIsInQiOiI2YThHRHh0MTJqSkx3N1RlVjBRTTcwRXZvRW5ZMFVLUDRrdm1PMFZ2U3dMbkczWHF3ZElxV2pMcWZOblhWZzhyRW1BeFwvcjJnZWpsVTNrSDlmTEZ6RjJsc1VGMXJTT25NMXlIZ1wvWnc4N3hhRUczRWtGbmFJYTFxYkZUK0tZVGQwIn0%3D

{noisyroom.net} ~ In the 2018 election cycle, a Marxist-led organization claiming more than 100,000 members in 50 states helped elect one U.S. senator, 10 members of Congress, around 70 state, county, and municipal officials... and contributed to the victory of more than 20 left-wing state and county ballot measures. Our Revolution, the vehicle organized in 2016 to carry on the commie-Bernie Sanders movement, endorsed several hundred candidates and ballot measures. Most fell short of victory, but six new leftist members of Congress, including commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and a slew of socialist state representatives, county commissioners, and school board members have encouraged a U.S. left that had been long disillusioned with electoral politics. Other beneficiaries of Our Revolution included incumbents Sen. commie-Bernie Sanders and Reps. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), Jamie Raskin (D-MD), Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), and Raul Grijalva (D-AZ). Our Revolution’s goal is no less than the revolutionary transformation of the United States. “Our Revolution will reclaim democracy for the working people of our country by harnessing the transformative energy of the ‘political revolution’. Through supporting a new generation of progressive leaders, empowering millions to fight for progressive change, and elevating the political consciousness, Our Revolution will transform American politics to make our political and economic systems once again responsive to the needs of working families,” states the Our Revolution website... Boy, America needs to wake up.  http://noisyroom.net/blog/2019/01/24/our-revolution-marxist-trojan-horse-inside-the-democratic-party/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Noisyroomnet+%28NoisyRoom.net%29

Palestinian Authority Uses 
Foreign Aid to Pay Millions to Terrorists

{investigativeproject.org} ~ The Palestinian Authority (PA) transferred over $135 million to imprisoned terrorists in 2018, Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) reports...
 Based on open-source information and the PA's own budget, PMW broke down PA terror payments into various categories. More than $62 million was sent to terrorists while they were in jail, while almost $48 million was paid to released prisoners. Roughly $26 million was used to pay for other terrorist-related salaries and additional benefits. PA security personnel jailed for terrorism charges continue to receive higher salaries from a different budget than other prisoners, which underestimates the overall figure of payments transferred to jailed terrorists. Payments are a function of the severity of the attack and prison sentence. The more brutal the attack or murder, the more money a Palestinian prisoner receives. Prisoners with previous arrests receive more money as well. These figures do not include other forms of PA support to Palestinian terrorists, such as salaries to the families of "martyrs" of dead terrorists. Israel's Knesset  passed legislation last July to impose structured sanctions targeting the PA for on its financial incentives program, which promotes violence against Israelis. The PMW report was sent to Israel's Ministry of Defense to help the government with their annual assessment of the PA's terror payments...Dry up the Foreign Aid program.

Venezuela Tries to Shed Socialist Dictator

by Thomas Gallatin:  Venezuelans have finally had enough of the failed promises of socialism. Once again that siren of the Left has proven only to rob people of Liberty, replacing it with the misery of poverty, high crime, and starvation at the hands of an elitist, authoritarian despot. On Wednesday, the anniversary of the ousting of military dictator Marcos Perez Jimenez in 1958, the president of Venezuela’s National Assembly, Juan Guaido, took the presidential oath before a massive crowd filling the streets of Caracas. Guaido now stands in direction opposition to Nicolas Maduro and his authoritarian grip on power.

This action was a long time coming, as we have long noted the inevitable collapse of Venezuela after Hugo Chavez aggressively implemented a socialist takeover of what was at the time South America’s wealthiest country. And since Chavez’s death it has only gotten worse. As Daniel DePetris of the Washington Examiner observes, “Venezuela under Maduro’s leadership has fallen apart at the seams. Inflation surpassed 1 million percent at the end of last year (not a typo!), a figure that makes former Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe look like an economic genius. Most of Venezuela’s population is in poverty, roaming the streets for dumpsters in the hope that food may be mixed in with the rubbish. The situation has gotten so bleak that 3 million Venezuelans have fled to Colombia, Chile, Peru, and Ecuador — better to start over in a new country than stay in Venezuela and starve to death. Medicine is in extremely short supply, the murder rate was the highest in the world in 2017, and many of the crimes that have been committed are the direct result of the Latin American country’s sorry excuse for an economy.”

President Donald Trump was quick to announce his support for Guaido, stating, “The citizens of Venezuela have suffered for too long at the hands of the illegitimate Maduro regime. Today, I have officially recognized the President of the Venezuelan National Assembly, Juan Guaido, as the Interim President of Venezuela.” The U.S. joins at least 13 other nations, most of which are in South America, in recognizing Guaido as Venezuela’s legitimate president.

Obviously, dictator Maduro sees things differently, and he responded to Trump’s announcement by cutting diplomatic ties with the U.S. and ordering our diplomats to leave the country within 72 hours. This sets up an interesting showdown, since the U.S. no longer recognizes Maduro as Venezuela’s legitimate president. Sen. Marco Rubio was quick to raise the issue, declaring, “U.S. diplomats in [Venezuela] should present their credentials to President [Guaido]. Maduro has no authority to expel anyone. And trust me on this one, if Maduro is stupid enough to test [Trump] by harming any U.S. diplomat, the consequences would be swift & severe.”

Trump’s action puts pressure on Maduro. However, Maduro still has the support of his military, as every dictator does. He installed loyalists to control the military while at the same time revoking citizens’ right to bear arms so that he has control of all the guns. How long will Guaido be able to stay out of Maduro’s prisons? Is Venezuela headed toward civil war? Time will soon tell, but for the sake of Venezuelans we hope for a peaceful transition of power.  ~The Patriot Post

{foxnews.com} ~ President Trump said Friday that he will support a short-term spending bill to re-open the government, temporarily ending the partial government shutdown... that has dragged on for more than a month -- despite a day earlier saying Republicans would not “cave” on his demands for funding for a wall on the southern border. “I am very proud to announce we have reached a deal to end the shutdown and reopen the federal government,” he said to applause from gathered Cabinet members. He said the deal would keep the government open for three weeks until Feb. 15 and that a bill would go before the Senate immediately. He made reference to his previous threats to declare a national emergency, calling it a “very powerful weapon,” but saying he didn’t want to use it. The deal appeared to include no money for a wall or steel barrier, but he said he hoped negotiations would continue to come to an agreement on wall funding."Walls should not be controversial," he said, before talking at length about the dangers of criminals and drugs coming across the border. He later said that if no deal was reached and the government shut down again on Feb. 15, he would then use his presidential powers to address what he described as "a national emergency."...  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-to-make-announcement-on-partial-government-shutdown-from-rose-garden

{patriotnewsalerts.com} ~ Nancy Pulosi is finally showing signs of cracking. The House speaker has finally agreed to approve $5 billion in border security funding — as long at is not used for any type of wall along the U.S.-Mexico border... Once a crack appears, it is only a matter of time before the dam breaks. Prior to this point, Pulosi had stood firm that Trump was not going to get his money. However, there has been mounting pressure on Democrats to come to the table and get this shutdown over with. While Trump will not take a deal that does include border wall financing, he is at least now seeing movement from the Dems. In the meantime, Trump isn’t backing down on social media.

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ Senate Democrats on Thursday blocked President Trump’s proposal to end the government shutdown by trading border wall funding for Dreamer protections... The bill needed 60 votes to advance, but it failed 51-47. The only Democrat who was voting for it was Joe Manchin of West Virginia, and two Republicans voted against Trump's plan: Tom Cotton of Arkansas, and Mike Lee of Utah. The measure would have funded until the end of the fiscal year all of departments and agencies that have been partially closed since Dec. 22, and would have provided $5.7 billion for a wall along the southwest border. In a bid to pick up Democratic votes, it also included a provision extending for three years all legal protections for Dreamers and others here under the Temporary Protected Status program. Democrats rejected the measure in part because they are seeking permanent legal status and a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers, but also because they oppose Trump's border wall proposal. Senators on Thursday were poised to reject a Democratic bill that would re-open the closed government until Feb 8., without any border wall funding, even though some GOP senators were expected to vote for it. “The last thing we need is another temporary measure,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. “We don’t need to punt from the one year line and set up another crisis just like this a couple of weeks from now.”...   https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/congress/democrats-block-trumps-plan-to-end-shutdown-fund-border-wall?utm_source=WEX_Breaking%20News%20Alert_01/24/2019&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WEX_Breaking%20News

Trump Just Exposed Pulosi for the Phony That She Is

{conservativefreepress.com} ~ When a historian goes back through the many classic things President Donald Trump tweeted throughout his candidacy and presidency... he might want to linger on this one from Monday when determining the top ten list. Because this was a Trump in rare form indeed. In less than 140 characters, he exposed House Speaker Nancy Pulosi’s stance on the border wall as the absolute nonsense that it is. “If Nancy Pulosi thinks that Walls are ‘immoral,’ why isn’t she requesting that we take down all of the existing Walls between the U.S. and Mexico, even the new ones just built in San Diego at their very strong urging,” Trump tweeted. “Let millions of unchecked ‘strangers’ just flow into the U.S.” If Democrats had any wits about them, they would excuse themselves from commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s classes on how to use Twitter and take a seat at the foot of the master himself, President Donald Trump. Because this was an expert class on making your political opponent look like a hypocrite and a fool. Pulosi will undoubtedly choose to ignore this tweet, because she has no other viable choice. The options are to either agree, and prove to the country that she really is the rabid, open-borders loon that her critics accuse her of being – and that’s a politically unstable position that would surely cost the Democrats the 2020 election, to say nothing of the shutdown victory. Or she could disagree and explain to the nation why walls across the southern border are just fine, except when they are TRUMP’S walls. Good luck finding a nuanced and politically-viable way to put that position into words...  http://www.conservativefreepress.com/politics/savage-trump-just-exposed-pelosi-for-the-phony-that-she-is/

{timesofisrael.com} ~ Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, has detailed how Iran quietly purchased replacement parts for its Arak nuclear reactor... while it was conducting negotiations for an international agreement under which it knew it would be required to destroy the original components. In an interview broadcast on Iran’s Channel 4 TV on January 22, Salehi recalled that during talks for the so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, the 2015 deal that lifted sanctions on Iran in return for it dismantling the weapons-capable parts of its nuclear program, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei warned his country’s negotiators that he expected Western parties to renege on the agreement. An English translation of some parts of the interview were provided Thursday by the Washington-based non-profit Middle East Media Research Institute. “When our team was in the midst of the negotiations, we knew that the Westerners would ultimately renege on their promises,” Salehi said. “The leader Khamenei warned us that they were violators of agreements. We had to act wisely. Not only did we avoid destroying the bridges that we had built, but we also built new bridges that would enable us to go back faster if needed.”...

Senate Intel Committee subpoenas 
Michael Cohen, demand he testify before panel

{dailycallernewsfoundation.org} ~ The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence has subpoenaed former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen to testify before the panel in February... CNN is reporting. The subpoena comes a day after Cohen announced he was postponing his testimony before the House Oversight and Reform Committee, which was scheduled for Feb. 7. Cohen said in a statement issued through his adviser, Lanny Davis, that he was postponing testimony because of his ongoing cooperation with federal prosecutors, including special counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller, as well as because of what he claims were “ongoing threats” from President Donald Trump. Trump has made reference to Cohen’s father-in-law in a series of tweets and public comments. CNN’s report did not say whether Cohen is being asked to testify publicly or behind closed doors. The committee, which is chaired by North Carolina Republican Richard Burr, has not conducted any hearings with witnesses in the Russia probe in a public setting...
BuzzFeed Reporter Can’t Verify
 His Own Story About Trump and Cohen

{totalconservative.com} ~ On Thursday, BuzzFeed News published what would, if true, be one of the most detrimental bombshells yet when it comes to the continued presidency of Donald Trump...
 In the story, the reporters cited unnamed sources within the Justice Department to make an extraordinary claim: That President Trump directed his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to lie to Congress about when negotiations over Trump Tower Moscow had ended. The story said that Cohen was on record with dirty cop-Robert Mueller about this being the case, and that furthermore, there were documents and internal Trump Organization emails confirming this devastating claim. As more than a few media outlets pointed out, if this story were true, it would give Congress significant ammunition to impeach Trump. This would amount to nothing less than witness tampering and obstruction of justice, and it would come very close to the exact same impeachment charges drawn up against Richard Nixon and scumbag/liar-Bill Clinton. Now, we know that Cohen’s word is worth less than the paper it’s printed on. He’s a verified liar who will say or do anything to minimize his own impending prison sentence. BUT…if there is indeed independent evidence verifying that Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress, that’s a whole ‘nother ball of wax. But despite insinuating in their story that they’d lain eyes on this independent evidence, the reporters have since admitted that no…not they haven’t. In an interview with CNN, Anthony Cormier, one of the journalists on the story, told Alisyn Camerota that he never saw the evidence...

The Covington Rorschach Test

by Michelle Malkin
 

Sometimes, a three-point celebration is just a three-point celebration. Sometimes, a pep rally is just a pep rally. Sometimes, a smile is just a smile. And sometimes, a hat is just a hat.

Only among the most deranged partisans could a universal sports ritual, a common high school activity, a typical teen face and patriotic headgear be construed as evil symbols of patriarchal oppression.

These, however, are the soul-sapping, lunacy-inducing times in which we live.

Nobody loses their marbles when black NBA stars make the universal “OK” gesture with one hand. Or two. Or when the elite athletes hold up the sign to the sky, turn two of them into triumphant eye goggles, stir the pot, sweep the floor or dramatically holster their finger-trios like weapons.

It’s all in good fun.

But when reputation-destroying agitators plundered the photo collection of the Covington Catholic High School basketball team in search of evidence to bolster their prefabricated narrative that the white Kentucky boys must, must, must be unrepentant bigots, the three-point celebration transmogrified into menacing proof of R-A-C-I-S-M.

Liberal pot-stirrers tweeted celebrities and journalists an image purporting to show that the Covington kids — still under siege after being slandered last week at the March for Life rally by Native American agitator jerk-Nathan Phillips — had flashed white supremacy signs. The teens were pictured on the sidelines of a basketball court in their uniforms, paying tribute to a teammate who had just scored.

No, they did not hail him with Hitler salutes, but with the innocuous three-point, A-OK sign.

Undeterred by basketball fans who futilely tried to explain the actual meaning of the hand gesture, monomaniacal left-wing detectives marked all the Covington athletes’ fingers with cuckoo red-font circles and disseminated their fevered forensic analysis across social media with enraged captions, including this one sent to the pope:

“This is the All White hand sign. This is Covington Catholic school. Is this what they teach at this Catholic school? Is this how Jesus wanted it?”

Comedienne-turned-decapitation fetishist Kathy Griffin gleefully attacked the boys, tweeting “Covington’s finest throwing up the new nazi sign.”

The New York Daily News and U.K. Daily Mail compounded the delusional smear with sensational headlines claiming Covington basketball players had taunted a black opponent while in “blackface.” Quelle horreur!

In truth, internet trolls had ripped a screenshot from the team’s video montage of pep rallies — where students had dressed up as nerds, businessmen and Hawaiians or painted themselves blue, white and (gasp!) black at various competitions.

It’s not racism. It’s athletic boosterism.

An alum, Ryan Toler, tried to correct the record, pointing out that he was pictured in the seven-year-old photo: “I’m shown in the background of this image. ITS CALLED A BLACKOUT THEME. WE HAD SCHOOL SPIRIT. WE DO THIS TO EVERY SCHOOL NO MATTER THE RACE OR ETHNICITY. Stop trying to force a fake story to drive your false narrative.”

But the media manufacturers of racism won’t stop because the ideological incentives to convict first and verify later are far too strong. Time after time, liberals see racism where it doesn’t exist, fabricate it when they can’t find it and ignore it within their own ranks.

They didn’t stop after falsely accusing Zina Gelman Bash, a Jewish Mexican-American lawyer, of flashing a white supremacy sign at a Senate confirmation hearing last fall for her friend Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

They didn’t stop after the liberal white zealots of the Southern Poverty Law Center falsely labeled famed neurosurgeon and Trump Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson and anti-jihad activist Maajid Nawaz “extremists.”

They didn’t stop after hysterically spreading campus hate crime fakery cooked up at my alma mater Oberlin College, where excitable nitwits claimed a student walking around with a blanket wrapped around her was a lurking racist in a KKK hood; at Michigan State University, where a “noose” turned out to be a lost shoelace; or at Bowling Green State University, where a purported group of Klansmen turned out to be lab equipment covered with a white cloth.

They didn’t stop after attacking my Catholic high school alma mater, Holy Spirit High School in Absecon, N.J., four years ago, when a decades-old tradition of basketball fans dressing up in goofy costumes was falsely portrayed by USA Today as racism because students wore monkey pajamas and a giant banana (others wore a green ballerina tutu, a bumblebee suit, a jack-o’-lantern outfit and “Wizard of Oz” get-ups).

The Covington hoax is more than just the epitome of fake news. It’s a cultural Rorschach test that measures the impact of Trump-hating confirmation bias on the viewer’s intellectual honesty and emotional stability. Those calling to protest, dox, stalk or kill the MAGA hat-wearing Covington kids and their families over a selectively edited video planted by a foreign instigator prove, once again, that political correctness is a pathological disorder.  ~The Patriot Post

When Will We Hold Them to Their Oath?

“Do you swear that you will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic; that you will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that you will take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that you will faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which you are about to enter — so help you God?”

{thenewamerican.com} ~ Each member of Congress — newly elected or reelected — must solemnly swear allegiance to the above oath at the beginning of each two-year session of Congress... Many do so in robotic fashion, placing as much value on the solemn words of the oath as would an actual robot. Some others possess varying degrees of loyalty to and awareness about the Constitution. But all are encouraged to look to their party’s leaders, not to the document itself, for guidelines about how they should vote on proposed legislation. In January 1993, during his very first day as a member of Congress, newly elected Congressman Richard Pombo (R-Calif.) somewhat angrily recounted his experience when he stood to swear the oath with his colleagues. He first told of his surge of pride and patriotism as he was about to make the solemn pledge. Immediately, however, he heard a colleague propose granting full congressional voting privileges to the delegates from Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia. Each of those areas is a part of the United States, but not a state. The Constitution grants full voting rights only to elected members from “states.” The regions named above are not and never have been states. Pombo’s colleague who made the proposal said it addressed a matter of “fairness, not constitutionality.” There’s no mention of “fairness” in the oath or in the Constitution itself. But “constitutionality” should be foremost in the considerations of any congressman. The wish to grant full voting privileges to delegates from non-states didn’t get very far. But Pombo admitted to experiencing a rather rude awakening about the lack of respect for the Constitution...

Mark Levin Calls Out 
Nancy Pulosi: ‘Radical Authoritarian’

{cnsnews.com} ~ In a Facebook Note posted on Jan 23, 2019, nationally syndicated radio talk show host of “The Mark Levin Show,” TV host of Fox News “Life, Liberty & Levin,”... author and American lawyer Mark Levin called out Speaker of the House Nancy Pulosi, calling her a “radical authoritarian.” “Nancy Pulosi, radical authoritarian… ,” Mark Levin wrote as the headline for his Facebook Note, suggesting that “it is Pulosi, not Trump, who is the authoritarian.” Mark Levin’s remarks came on Wednesday after Speaker Nancy Pulosi responded to President Trump’s letter about his intentions to “honor the Speaker’s original invitation, made in a Jan. 3 letter, to deliver his State of the Union Address in the chamber of the House of Representatives on Tuesday, Jan. 29,” reported CNSNews.com. “Pulosi quickly responded  with a letter to Trump. It said: No you won’t.”Levin said the following about the tension between Speaker Pulosi and President Donald Trump: “Although Pulosi was elected as one of 435 members of the House, representing only San Francisco, she climbed her way to the top of leadership only to hijack the government appropriations process and shutdown part of the government; block the president from delivering the State of the Union address in the House for the first time ever; and, obstruct border security to protect the American citizenry and immigrants alike and uphold national sovereignty. It is Pulosi, not Trump, who is the authoritarian.”...

{foxnews.com} ~ It was unclear exactly what prompted President Trump's decision Wednesday night to postpone his State of the Union address... but earlier in the evening it seemed that two of his closest Republican allies -- Sen. Lindsey Graham and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy -- were standing by the president in his battle with House Speaker Nancy Pulosi regarding plans for the speech. Graham, R-S.C., appearing on Fox News’ “Hannity,” said Pulosi had "become a nightmare for the Democratic Party" for her refusal to compromise with the president, and was dragging the party further to the left.“ She seems unreasonable, she seems to have a dislike for the president that is hurting the country, and this idea of not letting the president speak is really overplaying your hand. ”Graham said “more mainstream Democrats” have approached him this week, concerned about the “far-left rhetoric" in the House of Representatives, which  Democrats control. He then commended the president for offering to extend temporary protected status for DACA recipients as a solution to end the partial government shutdown, which began more than a month ago...  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/gop-allies-say-pelosi-acting-like-a-dictator-and-a-nightmare-for-dems-for-canceling-state-of-the-union-during-shutdown?utm_source=american-truth_org

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ President Trump acquiesced to House Speaker Nancy Pulosi's request, saying late Wednesday he would wait to give the State of the Union address until after the shutdown ends... "I am not looking for an alternative venue for the SOTU Address because there is no venue that can compete with the history, tradition and importance of the House Chamber," he said on Twitter. The annual address, originally set for Jan. 29 per the California Democrat's invitation, had become a political saga as the partial government shutdown dragged on to become the longest in U.S. history. Pulosi had earlier requested Trump postpone the address because of security concerns — more than 800,000 government employees, including those in the Department of Homeland Security and Secret Service, are working either without pay or are furloughed — and then said she would not bring a continuing resolution to the floor of the House to officially allow Trump to speak. Trump had said earlier Wednesday he would be at the chamber to give his address next week, then that he would find another venue.

{thenewamerican.com} ~ The current Congress could become the most radical in American history. Once-marginalized “progressives,” socialists, and even Communist Party supporters... are taking the reins of several strategic congressional committees. Democratic Party leadership is bending to accommodate fired-up young radicals. How radical is the crop of Democratic congressmen? Avowed socialist Senator commie-Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has deemed the latest crop of radical recruits “the most progressive freshman class in modern U.S. history.” Socialists have been infiltrating the Democratic Party for decades — and the Republican Party on occasion. The situation has gotten gradually worse since the Vietnam War era. Democratic Party “moderates” have been mostly successful — with the help of the establishment media — in keeping a lid on their socialist wing for years, but the relentless pressure from open socialists, along with an increasingly indoctrinated populace, has finally blown the lid off the charade. Every election cycle the radicals have gained a little more ground. In 2018, a tipping point was reached. Mere “infiltration” is boiling over into a full-fledged scarlet-tinged socialist takeover. Today’s Democratic Caucus is divided into three main groupings: On the far left is the “Quad Caucus,” consisting of the Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC), the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), the Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC), and the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC). The second grouping is the centrist New Democrat Coalition (NDC), and the third consists of the comparatively “conservative” Blue Dog Caucus (BDC)...

by Political Editors:  By now you’ve probably already heard — the media botched the “confrontation” between Covington Catholic High School boys and a Native American in the aftermath of Friday’s March for Life.

But there’s an interesting parallel that Becket Adams detects regarding the video that prompted the knee-jerk reactions. He writes:

Selectively edited videos are bad. Except when they aren’t.

That’s at least one of the big takeaways from the press’ disastrous promotion this weekend of bogus allegations of racism against teenagers at the March for Life. They were harassed by an elderly Native American protester, after being berated and abused by a hateful sect known as the Black Hebrew Israelites, but their situation got really bad only because of a single, selectively edited video of the incident that took place the day after the March for Life.

Forgive my eyerolling as I think back to the high standard of proof that the national media set in 2015 following the release of the undercover Planned Parenthood tapes. A court has since concluded that those tapes were kosher, but the media described them as “selectively edited” when they were released.

The video in this story, in contrast, actually was selectively edited.

Adams concludes by rhetorically noting, “It’s just so weird that certain newsrooms developed a standard for verification that lasted exactly as long as it took for the Planned Parenthood fetal tissue scandal to blow over. Quite a mystery.”  ~The Patriot Post

Dobson: N.Y. adopts 'pure barbarism 
rarely seen since Middle Ages'

{wnd.com} ~ A new abortion law passed by New York’s Democratic-led state legislature and signed into law Tuesday by Gov. evil-Andrew Cuomo permits abortion through all nine months of pregnancy, up to the very moment of birth... for almost any reason. Conservative Christian author, radio broadcaster and family counselor Dr. James Dobson is calling it “pure barbarism on a scale rarely seen since the Middle Ages.” The new law permits abortions if the mother’s life is at risk, which can be interpreted broadly to include protecting “mental health.” To celebrate the law, evil-Cuomo ordered that One World Trade Center be illuminated in pink.  The law also moves abortion violations from the state’s penal code to the health code. Dobson, founder and president of Family Talk as well as the James Dobson Family Institute, is an author and psychologist, has written dozens of books, counseled multiple presidents and was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame in 2008...
Trump’s HUGE legal victory (media ignoring)

{thehornnews.com} ~ One of the greatest success of President Donald Trump’s first term has been the record number of conservative judges the White House has successfully put into place... and the fight over America’s legal system has only just begun. While Democrats and the mainstream media have spent the last two years kicking and screaming about every tweet, Trump and Republican Senators have been remaking the federal court system. And his next target would be a huge win for conservative voters: The notoriously liberal 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, based out of San Francisco, California. On Tuesday, the Trump administration announced they had re-nominated a huge list of 51 federal judicial nominees — enough to fill at least one-third of all court vacancies. The bold move looks to jumpstart the nomination process in 2019. The White House looks to continue the first two year’s record-breaking success that conservative legal experts feared slowed down last year...
Opposing China's Dangerous Ambitions

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ The sharp downturn in ties between the world's two most fearsome militaries was evident when America's highest naval officer... Chief of Naval Operations Admiral John Richardson, went to Beijing this month. Chinese officers were ready for Richardson: they issued hostile words, especially about U.S. relations with Taiwan. In response, CNO Richardson stuck to Washington's decades-old script of cooperation. It is time for American policymakers to change that script by, among other things, dropping themes of engagement, introducing notions of reciprocity, and showing resolve of their own. Richardson struck an upbeat note as he left China on his second official visit as America's top admiral. "I very much appreciate the hospitality I received in China," he tweeted on January 16. "I had some great discussions with my counterparts and I look forward to strengthening our relationship as we move forward." The admiral's words were in sharp contrast to those of the Chinese counterparts. They threatened military action against the United States. Moreover, Global Times, the tabloid controlled by the Communist Party's People's Daily, in an editorial, made veiled threats directed at Richardson. "Beijing needs to take practical action to help the U.S. correct its vision," the paper noted, after referring to military action to enforce Beijing's expansive territorial claims. "China must have the ability to make rivals pay unbearable costs."...

{theepochtimes.com} ~ A former top attorney for the FBI has come forward with an astonishing admission about former Secretary of State scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton... providing firsthand insight into the bureau’s investigation of her under then-Director scumbag-James Comey.  James Baker is former general counsel for the FBI and served during scumbag/liar-Clinton’s email scandal. Recently released documents of Baker’s testimony to lawmakers reveal that he believed her conduct was “alarming” and “appalling” and that she should have been charged upon conclusion of the investigation. Baker elaborated that he “argued with others about why she shouldn’t be charged” for her mishandling of classified information, a revelation that sheds even more light on private discussions that occurred leading up to scumbag/liar-Clinton’s exoneration by the FBI. In addition to his work on the scumbag/liar-Clinton investigation, Baker also served during the scumbag/liar-nObama FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign over so-called “Russian collusion” in the aftermath of the 2016 election. Baker told lawmakers he thought it was “highly unusual” and that he “had skepticism about all this stuff”...

The Democratic Party Is Alienated 
from and Hates the USA
by E. Jeffrey Ludwig

{americanthinker.com} ~ At the high school where I formerly taught for 15 years in Brooklyn, N.Y., the Pledge of Allegiance was not recited when I arrived there in 1997. I was told that it had not been recited since 1966 because of the anti-Vietnam War protests...
 At that time, students, faculty, and administration agreed, the USA was supporting a corrupt government in Vietnam to protect oil interests, to promote a phony anti-communist script, and to deny the Vietnamese people their true national identity – namely, a united nation under their national hero, Ho Chi Minh. According to those antiwar activists, there was no sense in which we could be standing for "liberty and justice for all." Now, since the 9/11 attack of 2001, the Pledge is recited on a daily basis, but students are allowed not to stand for it. In 9th grade, most stand. In 10th grade, about half stand. By 11th grade, if two or three stand, a patriotic teacher may consider himself lucky. However, most of the teachers do not stand and do not recite the Pledge. And in 12th grade, none stands. Thus, there is a clear correlation between academic progress in the high school and patriotic respect, or rather lack of same. One of my communist colleagues said to me, "Standing and reciting the Pledge has nothing to do with love of country or patriotism. It's just a gesture." Is it not an expression of commitment to our country despite there being different levels of enthusiasm or "love" motivating the saying of that pledge? I totally  disagree with that colleague on this matter, and although I would not call him a traitor for not supporting the saying of the Pledge, I do think his commitment to and gratitude for living in the land of the free and the home of the brave he'd disagree with that phrase as well are deficient...

Shutdown's Economic Impact: Most Shrug, Others Suffer
5HaMQrGu9EIk_zxlbBm86hAtPzoGEtVQfg2i5fEJE6EcorbZzLRDKfpgvBnqnIfp2u6QBe00FhbCSXyldkInTWSk40y_N16cYkU_yH0j6kNZlIKhMoaLibuq-IZ2W8KQohN0ObG63CUgPcsv4pLvVm2uwE71m0iS_D4z1vY=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?profile=RESIZE_710x
by Thomas Gallatin:  As the partial government shutdown enters day 33, what impact is it having upon the U.S. economy? It is certainly having at least a temporal impact upon the economic lives of roughly 800,000 federal workers, half of whom have been furloughed and the other half are currently working without pay. However, these government employees represent approximately 0.5% of the entire U.S. workforce. So, how significant an impact is the partial shutdown having upon the U.S. economy as a whole?

People who live and work in the DC metro area are most certainly feeling the shutdown effects. Bloomberg estimates that about 1.2 million federal contractors are being impacted by the shutdown to the tune of $200 million a day in lost or delayed revenue.

Some economic forecasters are projecting a first-quarter slowdown of 0.2% to 0.4% due to the shutdown, which would amount to a loss of $10 to $20 billion in GDP. However, the Hudson Institute’s Harold Furchtgott-Roth argues, “Such forecasts are too pessimistic. U.S. GDP is more than $20 trillion annually, or approximately $55 billion daily. The daily compensation of furloughed federal workers is about $52.5 million, or less than 0.1% of GDP. This figure does not include affected government contractors, but even doubling or tripling this figure yields only a small share of GDP.”

In fact, after a month of a shutdown standoff that shows no signs of ending anytime soon, the stock market appears unconcerned. As Furchtgott-Roth further notes, “The Dow and the S&P 500 are up nearly 9% since the shutdown began Dec. 22.” He adds, “Experience also gives reason for optimism. The last major government shutdown occurred in 1995-96. It affected the entire federal government, not only part of it. Yet U.S. GDP growth increased from 2.7% in 1995 to 3.8% in 1996.”

While there are indeed hundreds of thousands of federal employees as well as thousands of private government contractors currently feeling very real financial pain from this shutdown, the larger lesson here is that the strength of the U.S. economy is found in the very fact that it is independent of the federal government. Government doesn’t build and grow the economy; free-market enterprise does.  ~The Patriot Post

The Sad State of the 4th Estate…Part 2

Be sure to Click LIKE at the bottom of this article, and share it everywhere!!

By Craig Andresen – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

Be sure to read, The Sad State of the 4th Estate…Part 1 by clicking here.

bffn-1.jpg?profile=RESIZE_710xOnce again, the mainstream media went over the abyss and down rabbit hole reporting fake news and embracing lies in their demented, pathological attempt to “get” President Trump.

Last week, BuzzFeed published what turned out to be nothing less than yet another manufactured diatribe meant to overthrow President Trump. BuzzFeed offered absolutely no evidence of their baseless allegations, and the rest of the mainstream media, like pit bulls on a pork chop, went into a feeding frenzy.

Make no mistake, that BuzzFeed sack of crap story regarding President Trump ordering his attorney, Cohen to lie to congress was every bit as truthful, and factual as the Steele dossier, and their manufactured claims against Nick Sandmann the rest of the Covington Catholic students last week.

But that’s the point, isn’t it? After two years, the Mueller “investigation,” which in reality is nothing more than an orchestrated, taxpayer funded witch hunt, has turned up exactly nothing regarding any illegal activities by President Trump…so…the liberal mainstream media has been relegated to a position of simply making crap up in an attempt to baselessly smear the President.

Not to be outdone…
