Donald Trump: ‘Fake News’ that Jim Webb 
Being Considered for Defense Secretary

{breitbart.com} ~ President Trump called a New York Times report claiming he is considering former Democrat Virginia Sen. Jim Webb... for defense secretary to replace Jim Mattis “fake news.” “The story in the New York Times regarding Jim Webb being considered as the next Secretary of Defense is FAKE NEWS. I’m sure he is a fine man, but I don’t know Jim, and never met him. Patrick Shanahan, who is Acting Secretary of Defense, is doing a great job!” Trump tweeted Friday: The  Times, citing an official, reported representatives for Vice President Mike Pence and acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, had reached out to Webb. Trump’s tweet was also a show of support for Deputy Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan, who is currently filling the role of defense secretary and is also reportedly under consideration for the job...

Using UniParty Ally Mitch McConnell

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer appears on Meet The Press to outline how the House will use political theater, with their ally Mitch McConnell... to weaken the border security position of President Donald Trump. When you accept that Senate Leader McConnell is actually on their team, things begin to make more sense. Democrats are providing cover for their UniParty ally, Mitch, by framing the optic of McConnell allied with President Trump. The entire process is a predictable and well planned insider game of optics and political theater. Mitch support the President.  https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/01/06/sunday-talks-steny-hoyer-outlines-legislative-resistance-approach-using-uniparty-ally-mitch-mcconnell/

{westernjournal.com} ~ A top commander in Iran’s navy said Friday that Iran, which is contesting America’s right to put an aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf... will deploy warships in the Atlantic Ocean. The group of warships is expected to set sail in March, according to Rear Adm. Touraj Hassani, Iran’s naval deputy commander. Hassani spoke to the state controlled IRNA  media outlet. “The Atlantic Ocean is far and the operation of the Iranian naval flotilla might take five months,” he told IRNA, Reuters   reported. “By their continuous presence in international waters, Iranian naval forces aim to implement the orders of commander-in-chief of the armed forces Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, wave the flag of the Islamic Republic of Iran, thwart the Iranophobia plots, and secure shipping routes.”If Iran follows through on its threat, it would be the closest Iranian forces have come to the U.S. mainland since the 1979 Islamic Revolution that ousted the shah and brought an Islamic regime to power, CBS News  reported...

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ Strasbourg, France. Christmas market. December 11th, 8pm. A man shouting, "Allahu Akbar" ("Allah is the greatest") shoots at passersby, then wounds several with a knife... He murders three people on the spot and wounds a dozen others, some severely. Two will later die of their wounds. The murderer escapes. Two days later, the police shoot him dead. He was known to the police. When members of the General Directorate of Internal Security and some gendarmes came to his home a few hours earlier, he had escaped. Although they knew he was an armed and dangerous Islamist ready to act, and that Christmas markets had been, and could be, likely targets, no surveillance was in place. The murderer, Cherif Chekatt, should, in fact, have been kept off the streets. He was 29 years old, his name was on the list of people reported for terrorist radicalization (FSPRT), and he and had already been sentenced for crimes 27 times. He was nevertheless roaming around free, with no police oversight. His case is similar to that of many jihadi terrorists in France in the last decade. Others include Mohamed Merah, who murdered Jewish children in Toulouse in 2012; Cherif and Said Kouachi, who murdered most of the staff at the satirical magazine  Charlie Hebdo in 2015, and Amedy Coulibaly, who murdered people at a kosher supermarket few days later...

Do Democrats Want Open Borders?
by Tom McLaughlin

{tommclaughlin.blogspot.com} ~ Our government is divided over border control and so is our country. At least a thousand people a day are apprehended at the Mexican border. Some days it’s more than three thousand. More than twenty million people live here illegally. Some claim it’s double that. Most Democrats and not a few Republicans would make them all legal if they could. Conservatives accuse them of wanting open borders. They vehemently deny that but then advocated allowing the recent caravan of “asylum seekers” from Central America (and elsewhere) to enter and await court hearings on individual cases which take years to process.     
illegal-immigrants-climbing-fence.jpg
Citing a Gallup poll, The Washington Examiner claimed last month that 158 million people worldwide want to come to the United States. Democrats criticize President Trump for being too restrictive of illegal immigration, asylum seekers, refugees, and the rest but when asked how many of the millions who want to enter America should be allowed in, they dodge the question. Meanwhile, they continue to advocate for whatever migrant group is dominating the news cycle and call anyone who would seal the border “racist” and “xenophobic.”

scumbag-Ellison is Vice Chairman of the Dem Party
So, what can we conclude? That they’re against any limits? It would seem so, but for Democrats to state that openly would be political suicide. While claiming to support border security, they defend sanctuary cities and sanctuary states that harbor illegal immigrants including criminals. They want to abolish ICE — Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Speaker Nancy Pulosi calls a proposed border wall “immoral.” Many Americans consider support for these contradictory positions incongruous, disingenuous, and deceptive.

Portland, Maine homeless shelters are full of African “asylum seekers” who came over the Mexican border and made a beeline for Maine. The Portland Press Herald blames President Trump in a Sunday editorial last week, but should perhaps blame itself. In story after story, the paper has been extolling the “benefits” of people coming to Portland from all over the world, legally and illegally, for years. Benefits for migrants of all kinds are obvious: cash, food, housing, medical care, education and so forth. What are the benefits for Mainers who pay for it all? It’s not surprising that they chafe while the Press Herald lectures them about the wonders of diversity and multiculturalism.

In the online edition of the Portland Press Herald, comments are disabled for most of the celebratory stories of refugees and “asylum seekers” because whenever comments are enabled, hundreds of Mainers voice their frustration.

Open-borders activists calling themselves “advocates” have spread the word around the world: You don’t have to cross a desert and hop a fence or wade the Rio Grande to sneak into the United States anymore, although many still do that. If you can make it to the US/Mexican border, just say the magic words: “I need asylum” and border guards will let you in, then send you anywhere to anywhere in the country you want to go, including Maine. “About three or four families from African countries such as Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo arrive at Portland’s Family Shelter each week after crossing the southern U.S. border, according to David MacLean, the city’s social services director,” in the Press Herald two weeks ago. MacLean is evidently in touch with “advocates” in Texas who send them north.

Much of liberal media portray legal and illegal migrants as oppressed, impoverished, desperate, starving, or otherwise deserving of taxpayer assistance. Many conservative outlets point out criminal and terrorist elements masquerading as refugees and playing on America’s heartstrings. A similar media duality exists across Europe and the result is political turmoil on both continents.   
Refugee-fake-memes.jpg
Ordinary Europeans and Americans watch reports of healthy-looking, fairly well-dressed crowds of people who don’t look desperate at all. They’re not starving; many are overweight and carry cell phones. Are the millions coming northward on both sides of the Atlantic really “refugees” and “asylum seekers?” Some probably are. Most probably aren’t. They’re simply seeking better jobs and welfare benefits.  
Marcus%2B2.jpg
Ordinary Europeans and Americans have been watching all this for years. In 2010, I flew down to our Mexican border to see for myself. After observing the chaos on our side of the fence for five days and talking to border patrol guards, I came away convinced that we need much stronger border security than the flimsy bits of wall that any reasonably fit person could easily scale. I wrote about all that  here  and  here .  
illegal-immigration.jpg
More recently I’ve watched video of Africans in overloaded boats heading to Italy and Spain and wasn’t surprised when Italians elected a government promising to turn those boats back. Last spring I spent a few days in Barcelona and visited ports in Italy and France. At every port, I saw hundreds of African men aggressively hawking cheap trinkets to tourists all day long. The same was true at the inland city of Florence, Italy. They were everywhere.

Immigration will likely remain the most divisive issue in the western world through 2019.

2019-1.jpg?width=207Okay…its 2019…a new year full of new possibilities and new opportunities, and it’s time to look back at some of the crap we learned in 2018.

While liberals continue to pee themselves over Hillary’s loss in 2016, and spew their socialist collective hatred at President Trump, and at Conservatives…desperately trying to take both down…we Conservatives continue to wallow about in all the winning our country is experiencing.

The real difference between liberals and Conservatives as we begin a new year, is nothing new…as Conservatives, we love our country…liberals don’t…and while we actually learn from things related to last year…liberals just never seem to get a grip on reality.

So…here we go…crap we learned last year…

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney outlines how Democrat leadership have dispatched legislative staff to frame optic of negotiations to re-open government; however... it appears the discussions are only intended to further political resistance efforts. The leadership staff have no authority to actually negotiate, but simply give the impression of negotiations. Pulosi, Hoyer, scumbag/clown-Schumer and scumbag-Durbin have a plan to maximize the shutdown for political gains; any border agreement would be adverse to their interests.

Zuhdi Jasser: Jihadism Is Alive in Syria
{clarionproject.org} ~ Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, the son of Syrian immigrants, is a well-known and respected commentator on the escalating Syrian conflict and an outspoken critic of the Assad regime... Now, the U.S. Navy veteran says jihadism is alive more than ever in Syria, and with the withdrawal of American troops, the rest of Syria will be filled by Russia and its Iranian allies. “There are literally hundreds of al-Qaeda type groups in Syria now,” Jasser said, “Perhaps ISIS’ command and control structure has been decimated, but its metastases, and conveyor belts are more active than ever. Syria is literally teeming with jihadis of every sort — the Salafi/jiahdis of the Sunni AQ/ISIS and Turkish brand and the Khomeinist jihadis of the Iran/Assadist/Hezbollah variety.” President Donald Trump defended his decision to withdraw U.S. troops on his Twitter page, saying he’s “just doing what I said I was going to do” during his presidential campaign. His comments came a day after Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, a close ally of the president, told reporters at the White House that Trump would reevaluate the withdrawal plan for Syria. The president elaborated in another tweet, “If anybody but Donald Trump did what I did in Syria, which was an ISIS loaded mess when I became president, they would be a national hero.” Jasser argues that the U.S. presence is Syria was vital, and the withdrawal will come with several repercussions...  https://clarionproject.org/zuhdi-jasser-jihadism-is-alive-in-syria/

CDC Thomas Frieden - Billions in Potential Scandals

{freedomoutpost.com} ~ Former CDC Director Thomas Frieden was recently arrested  on August 24, 2018, for forcible touching, sexual abuse, and harassment... Is that what this has come down to? Arresting a man responsible for preventing a 19-year CDC veteran whistleblower from speaking up against vaccines, to exaggerating the swine flu and pushing vaccines, making mandatory and involuntary tracking of pregnant women’s ongoing diabetes results law, and assisting former President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama with his healthcare scheme, and yet, they nail him on “groping a woman”. Not that sexual abuse should be taken lightly, but it wreaks of cover-up. Meanwhile, billions of taxpayer dollars have been injected into these potential scandals. Sexual scandals seem to be a theme lately for those who are involved in much higher levels of corruption. Thomas Frieden is not “one of the nations most respected medical experts”, as the MSM would have you believe. In fact, Frieden’s history with a long chain of corrupt politicians  and “philanthropists” is much bigger than most people realize. Thomas Frieden is a peg on the board, years in the making, being moved to where they need him, while always staying within the circle, and he’s still at it. Reviewing the nearly 30-year timeline, connections, and events below, one can draw their own conclusions as to what they believe the “bigger picture” is...
Democrats Hoist with Their Own Petard
by Clarice Feldman

{americanthinker.com} ~ “Hoist with his own petard” is a phrase taken from Shakespeare and means someone destroyed himself with a weapon a petard, that is, small bomb intended for another... President Trump has hoisted the #NeverTrumpers on theirs and is about to do the same thing to the now irremediably lunatic Democrats.  Christopher Bedard has done a brilliant job describing the downfall of the #NeverTrump scribblers. It’s worth reading it all, but here are some highlights:  The Never Trumpers say they don’t recognize a Republican Party where the core tenets are neither free trade nor foreign democracy promotion. But maybe they just didn’t know their voters by sight, because the only party that has truly departed recognition is Never Trump. Each week brings this movement a new and bizarre position: Opposing tax cuts, supporting scumbag/liar-nObamacare; wishing North Korean talks ill, wishing Democratic investigators well; dreaming of European political meddling, pining for American political comeuppance. [snip] Though the president’s House was defeated in the first post-Trump national elections and his two-year approval among Democrats lies at historic lows, his approval with his own voters -- those who the Never Trumpers courted not long ago -- is second only to George W. Bush after 9/11...

The Irrational Allergy to the Wall

by Rich Lowry

It’s a wonder that Democrats haven’t staked out a negotiating position demanding the destruction of already-existing barriers along the U.S.-Mexico border.
               Their opposition to President Donald Trump’s border wall (or, more properly, his so-called wall) is now so total as to be nearly indistinguishable from opposition to any serious infrastructure at the border at all.
               The partial government shutdown is fueled by a clash of visions over, ultimately, the legitimacy of borders and, proximately, physical barriers to make our southern border more secure.
               Trump has the better part of the argument, but his lurch into the shutdown with no discernible strategy and his scattershot pronouncements make it unlikely that his view will carry the day.
               Obviously, a 2,000-mile-long border wall rivaling the best work of the Ming Dynasty never made any sense, and was never going to happen. Nor, short of Trump finding a latter-day Gen. Winfield Scott to go occupy Mexico City, was Mexico going to suffer the humiliation of funding a Yanqui border wall.
               This was all lurid fantasy, and Trump has conceded as much, although he will, at times, deny having conceded as much. His ambitions are now much more reasonable, involving the kind of up-to-date bollard or “steel slat” fencing that already exists in places. But he’s running into an opposition that is much less reasonable.
               Triggered as always by Trump, and growing more dovish on immigration almost by the hour, Democrats are treating the notion of a wall as practically a human-rights abuse. President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama routinely droned people without generating as much high dudgeon as Trump does asking for $5 billion to better fortify our southern border.
               Chuck scumbag/clown-Schumer calls the wall “medieval.” It’s true that the core idea — a physical barrier to impede the movement of people — isn’t a new technology. The basic concept proved out so long ago that there hasn’t been any need to revisit it.
               Nancy Pulosi deems the wall “immoral.” She sounds like West Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt condemning the Berlin Wall as the “Wall of Shame” — when the East Germans built their border barrier to keep people in, whereas we only want to keep illegal entrants out.
               If a wall is immoral, what standing does the current 350 miles of primary fencing have? Isn’t it just as hateful as what Trump proposes? The $5 billion the president wants wouldn’t even match what we already have — it would construct about 150 miles of new barriers where none currently exist.
               A wall or fencing is relatively mild as far as immigration enforcement goes. It doesn’t involve deporting anyone. It doesn’t separate families. It doesn’t prosecute and detain anyone. It doesn’t deny any illegal immigrant currently working in the United States a job. All it does is seek to avoid getting in a situation where these other things are necessary in the first place.
               A wall doesn’t close down the border, or close us off to the world. There are still ports of entry. People can still travel to and from Mexico. People can still, for that matter, fly to Paris. It just diminishes illegal entry at certain strategic points.
               Robust fencing made an enormous difference in stopping illegal crossings in Yuma, Arizona. The area had only about 5 miles of fencing in the mid-2000s, then saw the extent of its fencing increase tenfold. Illegal crossings plummeted.
               Yuma got that additional fencing thanks to the passage of the Secure Fence Act in 2006 on a bipartisan basis, prior to the Democratic Party becoming unsettled by the prospect of putting physical barriers in the way of illegal entrants.
               The wall isn’t the most important immigration enforcement measure. Requiring employers to verify the legal status of their employees would be much more consequential. But the wall has taken on great symbolic significance. What it denotes, perhaps more than anything else, is the growing irrationality of the Democrats on immigration.

{independentsentinel.com} ~ The President’s press conference was brilliant! The media will trash him, but the important thing is the American people heard it... and they will be the judges. He needs to keep speaking to and for the people. On Wednesday, he found a brilliant way of addressing the misbehavior by Democrats at the Wednesday meeting. They wouldn’t listen. When the Democrats rudely interrupted the Secretary of Homeland Security on Wednesday, the President turned around and sent the presentation to all members of Congress. That’s brilliant. scumbag/clown-Schumer and Pulosi whined after the meeting that they wouldn’t resolve the border crisis unless the government is opened up. The President won’t open the government until the border crisis is resolved. A reporter asked the President if he could declare a national emergency at the border and build the wall. He said he could, but didn’t want to do that just yet. The President sounded more positive than the Democrats, but this presser was for the people. That is who he was speaking to today...  http://www.independentsentinel.com/brilliant-presidents-presser-on-the-wall-is-meant-for-the-american-people/

The meeting instead devolved into negotiations over how to end the partial government shutdown, in a fight centering around border wall funding...   https://dailycaller.com/2019/01/04/democrats-refused-to-listen-to-border-security-briefing-so-trump-sent-it-to-all-members-of-congress/

Shelly, what’s your question?” MSNBC host Joy Reid stated.  “Congratulations on the election,” Ward said before asking, “Do you support the Black Lives Matter movement?” “Well, I support the recognition that black lives matter, for sure. And I have incorporated that in many of my statements. I think all lives matter, yes,” Pulosi responded. “But there has — we really have to redress past grievances in terms of how we have addressed the African-American community. I had a real privilege yesterday to address the swearing-in of the new black caucus members.”...  She is lying once again.  https://dailycaller.com/2019/01/05/pelosi-black-lives-matter-speaker/

Dems Lay Impeachment Trap,

{thehill.com} ~ Certain common aphorisms were never meant to be taken literally. What does not kill you only makes you stronger is a particularly risky principle by which to live... A watched pot will indeed boil. Time does not heal all wounds. Slow and steady does not always win the race. President Trump added a new and, for him, potentially dangerous aphorism this week, when asked about impeachment. He said he was not at all concerned because “you cannot impeach someone who is doing a great job.” Trump was hopefully making an aspirational rather than a literal point because a president can be entirely successful in office yet be rightfully impeached for committing “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” Indeed, no matter how successful a president may be in executing significant policies, the commission of any impeachable offense means, by definition, that he or she is not doing a great job. His statement was unnerving not only because he has said it before but because Trump is entering the most dangerous period of his term so far. With Democrats now controlling the lower chamber of Congress, the White House is about to be hit with a torrent of document demands and subpoenas from a half dozen committees. Some Democrats have already stated their intentions, intemperately or even profanely, like Rashida TlaibDemocrats promised to demand answers on his personal taxes, foreign business dealings, family charity, and other areas beyond the Russia investigation. This reflects a strategy that not only targets Trump but counts on him to be successful. They are relying on his description of himself as a “counterpuncher” to supply the grounds of his removal. Yes, Trump could counterpunch himself into getting impeached...

{thehill.com} ~ President Trump on Friday condemned a freshman Democratic congresswoman who profanely said the day before that he should be impeached... “I thought her comments were disgraceful,” Trump said in the Rose Garden, adding he thought the remarked “dishonored” the country and Rep. Rashida Tlaib's family. The newly sworn-in Michigan Democrat, one of the first two Muslim American women elected to Congress, set off a media frenzy after she was recorded at a MoveOn.org rally near Capitol Hill on Thursday night. “When your son looks at you and says, ‘Momma, look, you won. Bullies don’t win.’ And I said, ‘Baby, they don’t.’ Because we’re going to go in there and impeach the ************,” Tlaib said as the crowd erupted into cheering. The comments came hours after she was sworn in to Congress and follow up on calls for impeachment she made during her campaign. Several House Democrats said the comments were not helpful and “inappropriate” as the party pushes its agenda on ending a partial government shutdown and a variety of legislative priorities...  https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/423927-trump-dem-congresswoman-dishonored-herself-with-profane-call-for

The New York Times Is 'Unmistakably Anti-Trump,' Says...
DHqEf-nt8CN43p9piVwCrUXJC1fzPnSI3SXanegCzwuwsMplnFnRUMezKNwKm_WGA9BpgIdP5kM1FiT7sZ8OsFpmdmxRgpxR6pG7wTq07GqGYGiaxDEIw5kRK4JiUPojBEmwZ7LeCCh2zpq6LTgy_P3Tpp6N2uSDK5dRdKU=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=400
by Political Editors:  Just how bad has The New York Times’s leftist bias gotten? Well, to quote the Gray Lady’s former executive editor, “I’ve resisted critiquing the place publicly, but this [expletive] is bad. It’s making horrible mistakes left and right.”

             According to Jill Abramson, the Times’s executive editor from 2011 to 2014, it has become “unmistakably anti-Trump.” In her upcoming book, Merchants of Truth: The Business of News and the Fight for Facts, Abramson slams the NYT’s unapologetic leftist bias. She writes, “Though [Dean] Baquet [her successor and current executive editor] said publicly he didn’t want the Times to be the opposition party, his news pages were unmistakably anti-Trump. Some headlines contained raw opinion, as did some of the stories that were labeled as news analysis.”
               Now, the fact that the Times espouses a leftist bias certainly isn’t news. In fact, that sort of bias among mainstream media outlets is the very thing that inspired the creation of The Patriot Post in 1996. What is significant, however, is the source of the criticism. Abramson, who was the first female executive editor of the Times, is far from a conservative, and yet even she can’t tolerate the leftist propaganda it is passing off as journalism. Abramson faults the Times for its lack of journalistic integrity and its failure to follow the directive of its one-time owner, Adolph Ochs, who vowed at the turn of the 20th century “to cover the news without fear or favor.”
               In her book, Abramson points to two factors that explain the paper’s decent into the realm of tabloids and propaganda. The first is young versus old. She writes, “The more ‘woke’ staff thought that urgent times called for urgent measures; the dangers of Trump’s presidency obviated the old standards.” The new leftist belief is that all the old values are actually only expressions of oppression.
               The second factor is financial incentives. “Given its mostly liberal audience,” Abramson explains, “there was an implicit financial reward for the Times in running lots of Trump stories, almost all of them negative: they drove big traffic numbers and, despite the blip of cancellations after the election, inflated subscription orders to levels no one anticipated.” In other words, instead of reporting the truth irrespective of the financial considerations, the Times compromised its journalistic integrity in pursuit of the almighty dollar. That’s why it’s laughable and profoundly disingenuous when Leftmedia outfits like the Times complain and blame Trump for the American public’s loss of trust in the nation’s major news outlets.  ~The Patriot Post

Wake up America. Islam Is a Religion of Violence

Posted by Oscar Y. Harward on January 7, 2019 at 1:00pm

4064709450?profile=originalBy Oscar Y. Harward

Many refer to Islam as a religion of peace.  Islam does not practice religion of peace. 

Christians learn more about peace, love, and justice from (y)our Holy Bible.

However, Islam is a contrasting radical form of life as compared to Christianity.  Islamic Muslims and other supporting groups qualify as approved for tax supported status under the IRS Code.  Why should Congress and the IRS Code support or allow tax supported status to any function supporting Islam?

Why should Americans invite Islamic Muslims into America as they openly declare that Islam will destroy America, our Constitution, and our Holy Bible; replacing America with Islam, the Quran, and Sharia Law?

A majority of terror in America is associated to Islamic Muslim governments, other Islamic individuals, or groups. 

Terrorism created by Islamic Muslims costs Americans their lives; around the world.  American taxpayers have paid trillions of dollars due to Islamic Muslims' terrorism.

On February 26, 1993 The World Trade Center suffered a terrorist attack on New York.  Another terrorist attack occurred on 9/11/01 as ‘Islamic’ Muslims used airliners in attacking America.  This attack cost trillions of dollars to educate and protect our USA citizens.  The ‘main-stream’ Medias barely mention this cost of lives and the taxpayers created by ‘Islamic’ Muslims.

The Quran promotes violence http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/pages/quran/violence.aspx.

On a regular basis, all who oppose ‘Islam’ are attacked; injured, and/or killed by radical Muslims. https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/attacks/attacks.aspx?Yr=Last30.

Islamic attacks continue.  How can leaders continue allowing ‘Islam’ and their supporters to amass tax supported status?  Learning more about Islam and removing tax supported status will likely deeply reduce terrorism across America.

https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/attacks/attacks.aspx?Yr=Last30?

Eliminating tax supported status of all Islamic supported groups and their supporting organizations in the USA will decrease terrorism and other criminal activity.

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ U.S. coal exports surged last year in Honduras, which has been the target of barbs from the president related to immigration and border security... Honduras showed a 242 percent year-to-date increase in U.S. coal in the third quarter, making it the largest increase in coal of any country in 2018, according to new federal Energy Information Administration data released last week detailing production and exports from the past three quarters of the year. EIA is the Energy Department’s independent analysis arm. Trump had referred to a caravan of thousands of Hondurans seeking to migrate to the U.S. as an "invasion," sending troops to the border in an effort to head them off. Trump also said during a rally in November that Honduras does nothing for the U.S. and that he will be cutting foreign aid the U.S. sends there very soon. At the same time, Trump has made exporting more coal a key part of his "energy dominance" agenda. The number two country for increasing imports of U.S. coal for power plants was Pakistan. Other more traditional allies, like Canada, France, and Germany, cut their imports of coal last year, according to the Energy Department...

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ President Trump's national security adviser, John Bolton, warned the Syrian government that it should not take the planned U.S. military pullout from Syria as a sign... that it could begin using chemical weapons. “There is absolutely no change in the U.S. position against the use of chemical weapons by the Syrian regime and absolutely no change in our position that any use of chemical weapons would be met by a very strong response, as we’ve done twice before,” Bolton, who has been traveling to Israel and Turkey, told reporters on his plane. “So the regime, the Assad regime, should be under no illusions on that question,” he added.Trump said in December that the U.S. military succeeded in its mission to defeat the Islamic State and would be withdrawing ground troops from the country. The decision led in part to the resignation of Jim Mattis from his post as secretary of defense. Trump has ordered the bombing of Syria twice during his presidency after its government allegedly used chemical weapons. Bolton said his comments weren't meant to suggest that Syria appeared to be planning to use chemical weapons but that if they were to be used, “a lot of options would be on the table … if they don’t heed the lessons of those two strikes the next one will be more telling."...  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/foreign/john-bolton-chemical-weapons-from-syria-will-be-met-with-very-strong-response?utm_source=WEX_News%20Brief_01/05/2019&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WEX_News%20Brief

{theintercept.com} ~ DESPITE PRESSURE FROM progressive Democrats, the House rules package for the 116th Congress will include a pay-as-you-go provision... requiring all new spending to be offset with either budget cuts or tax increases, a conservative policy aimed at tying the hands of government.   commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who will be sworn in this week to represent a district in New York, will vote against the package, her spokesperson told The Intercept. Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif.,  announced Wednesday that he would oppose it.  Presumptive House Speaker Nancy Pulosi, who will be sworn in on Thursday, has promised for months to restore the pay-go rule, which she instituted when first taking over the speaker’s gavel in 2007. She ran into resistance from progressives, who believe that the rule would make it more difficult for Democrats to pass a host of liberal agenda items, from “Medicare for All” to a Green New Deal to tuition-free public college. Critics also argue that pay-go creates an unlevel playing field, where Republicans get to blow giant holes in the tax code, as they did with the 2017 tax cuts, while Democrats must pay fealty to the deficit. “There’s enormous appetite in the Democratic Party and among all Americans for major public investment to tackle our nation’s major crises: deepening inequality and structural racism and climate disaster,” said Waleed Shahid, communications director for Justice Democrats, in a statement to The Intercept. “Pulosi and the Democratic Party leadership’s support of Paygo makes actually solving these crises all but impossible. The Democratic Party leadership is unilaterally disarming and shooting themselves in the foot.”...  https://theintercept.com/2019/01/02/nancy-pelosi-pay-go-rule/?utm_source=The+Intercept+Newsletter&utm_campaign=9af3d21bcc-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_01_05&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_e00a5122d3-9af3d21bcc-131896129

{wnd.com} ~ Dr. Jerome Corsi, my friend of 25 years and my client, is an American hero. Rather than accepting a fraudulent plea deal from Special Counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller, where he was offered no prison time if he pleaded to one felony count of perjury he did not commit, but only if he would implicate President Donald Trump in so-called Russian collusion, he told dirty cop-Mueller and his leftist pro-scumbag/liar-Clinton and scumbag/liar-nObama Democratic prosecutors to stick it where the sun don’t shine. Jerry simply could not find it in his Christian heart to lie before the Creator and his Son; nor could he agree to be branded falsely as a felon, losing his right to vote. To the contrary, he has made it clear he would risk being imprisoned by a runaway Deep State prosecutor for the remainder of his life, rather than to lie under oath and implicate the president in alleged wrongdoing.

But Jerry did not stop there! Realizing that he was in a unique position to finally take on dirty cop-Mueller and his fellow hack prosecutors, he did something the president himself should have done long ago, but for the bad advice he has gotten for the better part of the last two years by his television-centric lawyers. Dr. Corsi pushed back and decided to take dirty cop-Mueller on legally and frontally!

Over the last month leading up to today, Jerry authorized my co-counsel David Gray and me to file criminal complaints against dirty cop-Mueller and his leftist prosecutors before Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker, the head of the Criminal Division, the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, the Office of Professional Responsibility, and the inspector general of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to address and remedy this gross prosecutorial misconduct. For good measure, he also authorized David and me to file bar complaints with the Office of Disciplinary Counsel (ODC) of the District of Columbia Bar.

While it is doubtful that ODC will take any action against  dirty cop-Mueller, the complaint was filed on principle. The District of Columbia Bar, run by leftists who have donated heavily to the scumbag/liar-Clintons, Barack  scumbag/liar-nObama and a myriad of Democrats, are generally not interested in enforcing its Rules of Professional Responsibility against their own ilk like dirty cop-Mueller and his comrades. On the other hand, they “specialize” in going after conservatives, like counselor to the president and attorney Kellyanne Conway who is under scrutiny for simple statements, allegedly false, she made on Fox News. Meanwhile, Democratic partisans like scumbag/liar-Clinton lawyer David Kendall and Michael Cohen’s attorney Lanny Davis get a green light to behave unethically.

But the complaints before DOJ are likely to bear fruit, that is, if the president himself finally takes charge and orders investigations. If not, we are prepared to go to court to obtain an order compelling investigations by DOJ, which if done honestly should, in principle, lead to the “prosecution of the prosecutors” on the dirty cop-Mueller team.

In addition, Jerry also instructed me to file a lawsuit before the federal court in Washington, D.C., over the illegal and unconstitutional surveillance of him and his family without probable cause that he had committed a crime, orchestrated by dirty cop-Mueller and his lackeys in the Deep State Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). For added measure, the complaint, which we filed before Christmas, also sued for the criminal grand jury leaks that have been coming from the special counsel intended to smear Jerry and his family – to try to bludgeon him to capitulate.

Since a judge I had successfully appeared before, the Honorable Richard J. Leon, had previously ruled in my favor that this type of illegal surveillance was unconstitutional – “almost Orwellian” he called it – I asked that this new Corsi lawsuit be assigned to him. This jurist, given the expertise on the issues he had acquired, it was thought, was best suited to hear the case. And, incidentally he was not a scumbag/liar-Clinton or  scumbag/liar-nObama appointee, nearly all of whom in this federal court are extremely biased and partisan and most assuredly would approve of dirty cop-Mueller’s tactics so long as it was to further the removal of Trump as our 45th president.

The one wild card in designating the complaint as related and thus preliminarily assigned to Judge Leon was that I had learned that the judge himself was illegally surveilled by the Deep State. I had asked him in the prior lawsuits which he later dismissed for no good reason and now are on appeal, if he had been coerced by the Deep State to get rid of them.

Immediately after I filed the Corsi complaint, Judge Leon set the matter down for a hearing, which DOJ lawyers later tried to postpone on the phony excuse that its legal counsel could not work given the partial government shutdown. On behalf of Dr. Corsi, I opposed this, and Judge Leon agreed. And an initial hearing on the issue of the related case assignment thus went forward Thursday. See the courtroom artist drawing of Jerry and me appearing before Leon:

To make a long story short, Judge Leon declined to keep the case, in my opinion apparently still frightened that the Deep State FBI and intel agencies had “harvested him” and might retaliate if he presided over our complaint. While he made a point of making light of my concerns, upon granting DOJ’s request to have the case reassigned, and before I could speak further, he could not wait to rush off of the bench.

Our case was thus “thrown back into the pond” and re-emerged with it being “randomly” assigned to the Honorable Ellen Segal Huvelle. Hopefully, she will be a neutral arbiter of justice and allow our case to go before a jury of Jerry’s peers. We will see to it, with your strong support, that we provide every opportunity for this to happen.

For if heroes like Dr. Corsi, my proud and brave client, do not risk their lives and pledge their sacred honor to protect the Republic from tyrants like dirty cop-Mueller and his anti-Trump leftist and hateful leftist prosecutors, all will be lost!

Pence: 'We Will Have No Deal Without a Wall'

{cnsnews.com} ~ President Trump has made it clear: "we're here to make a deal," Vice President Mike Pence told Fox News's Tucker Carlson Thursday night... "But it's a deal that's going to result in achieving real gains on border security. And you have no border security without the wall. We will have no deal without a wall," Pence promised. He said it several times: "There's no wall, there's no deal." Pence said the Trump administration is "completely focused" on building the wall and passing legislation that provides other "resources and tools" for those who enforce our immigration laws."There's lot of people talking about a lot of different ideas," Pence continued.

{wnd.com} ~ A ton of ink, or pixels, as the case may be, have been spent on a particular text from FBI agent Peter Strzok to his paramour in the bureau, Lisa Page... Before the 2016 election, as they plotted how to ensure Donald Trump was defeated, he texted: “I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office – that there’s no way he gets elected – but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk. It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40.” “It” apparent was the dossier of wild and unsubstantiated claims about Donald Trump. Written by ex-British spy Christopher Steele and financed by the scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, it relied on unnamed Russian sources. The document then was used by Barack  scumbag/liar-nObamas’ Department of Justice as evidence before a secret Washington court to obtain warrants to spy on the Trump campaign. And it was a catalyst for launching dirty cop-Robert Mueller’s special counsel probe, which had turned up no evidence of Trump campaign collusion with Russia. Larry O’Connor, in an analysis for the Washington Times, wonders why the  scumbag/liar-Clinton campaign didn’t use any of the negative information during the election campaign. “This argument makes sense which is why it is employed and repeated by mainstream media journalists and pundits whenever objections to Justice Department behavior in 2016 is raised on cable news only if the sole intent of the FBI’s action in the summer of 2016 was to harm the Trump campaign.”...  https://www.wnd.com/2019/01/dems-insurance-dossier-finally-explained/

Technology Cannot Replace Physical Barriers

{mmigrationreform.com} ~ In the days leading up to the partial government shutdown, Senate Minority Leader Chuck scumbag/clown-Schumer (D-N.Y.) claimed support for border security... but derided the notion of a border wall. “We favor smart, effective border security, not a medieval wall. A Trump shut down will not convince a single Democrat to support bilking the American taxpayer for an ineffective, unnecessary and exorbitantly expensive wall,” scumbag/clown-Schumer stated. Smart border enforcement, with all the technological bells and whistles, is nice and necessary. But it is not a substitute for actual physical barriers. scumbag/clown-Schumer and incoming House Speaker Nancy Pulosi (D-Calif.) want to invest in technology – sensors, night vision cameras, etc. – along the border or so they claim. Such technology is useful insofar as it alerts border enforcement authorities to the fact our borders have been breached. But there is no documented case of sensors or cameras preventing our borders from being breached. Physical barriers – walls and fences – on the other hand, actually prevent people from crossing the border illegally. Many people hire home security companies to install alarms and sensors that let them know if someone is breaking into their homes. These are added layers of security and deterrence, not a replacement for locks on doors and windows. The sensors allow the security company to alert the police. Maybe the police get there in time to nab the burglar before he walks off with people’s valuable, and maybe they don’t. Given the choice between having locks on the doors and windows or sensors on the doors and windows, most people would sensibly choose locks...  https://immigrationreform.com/2018/12/30/technology-alone-is-not-real-border-security-immigrationreform-com/?mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTjJKbFpqQmxOV0ZrTmpnMSIsInQiOiJESUdXNDBLMmlZcU9ueWtDYTA2WjViUW1Xd2lwejE5cisxM3VCdzVYVnZMOVBlSkVDT1dsMXZaMkpqMVRFdU9lM0U3Y2V2QldjblBBbm9jT3ZGYVRsXC9SSm9zeWJaSkcreGFVWGJ2djJkN0RXYzh1MVR1V05jOWlwYUtFdE1PRnpKQ2pWcDRPamVCNGsxMm1IeWxhRlFRPT0ifQ%3D%3D

Trump Dossier Source Murdered?
by truedaily.news  

{truedaily.news} ~ The main source of the Trump dossier, a former KGB officer, was found dead the day after Christmas. The Daily Mail reports... The Kremlin may have covered up the murder of a former KGB chief accused of helping ex-MI6 spy Christopher Steele to pull together the notorious dossier on Donald Trump. Oleg Erovinkin served as a general in the KGB and was found dead on Boxing Day in the back of his car in Moscow. It has been claimed he died of a heart attack, but an expert on Russian security threats believes he was murdered for his role in the explosive dossier. The suspected murder victim was close to former deputy prime minister Igor Sechin, who is named throughout the leaked memo, according to the Telegraph...

For Opposing Border Security

{townhall.com} ~ Donald Trump is still a political newcomer, but he’s making experienced D.C. insiders like Chuck scumbag/clown-Schumer and Nancy Pulosi look like amateurs.

At a press briefing Thursday afternoon, President Trump deftly challenged Democrats to back up their repeated claims that they support border security by having some of the people responsible for protecting our country’s borders explain just what they need from Congress.

Democrats have steadfastly refused to compromise with the President over his demand for $5 billion to fund construction of a wall along our southern border, insisting all the while that their intransigence is not because they secretly support illegal immigration, but merely because they believe a border wall would be “ineffective.”

That was always a rather dubious explanation — Democrats, after all, aren’t exactly known for their frugality.

One thing that the Border Patrol agents at President Trump’s press briefing made perfectly clear was that it is impossible to achieve true border security without a wall. They weren’t just offering assurances that a wall would be effective; they were saying that a wall is vital.

It wasn’t just empty rhetoric, either. The men and women who protect America’s borders are among those affected by the partial government shutdown, meaning they are currently working without pay, yet the agents were adamant that they’re standing behind the President because they believe so strongly in the need for tougher border security, including a wall. 

As one Border Patrol agent memorably put it, “If I come to your home, do you want me to knock on the front door, or do you want me to climb through that window?”

America’s border is pretty much all windows right now, making a mockery of the occasional doors that we put up every few dozen miles, as the agents well know.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck scumbag/clown-Schumer believes that Democrats are winning the shutdown battle, but he would be wise to think long and hard about what those immigration enforcement officers had to say.

Most ordinary people wouldn’t even have noticed this partial shutdown absent the media hysteria surrounding it, and to this point, some may have been inclined to support a quick resolution solely out of sympathy for furloughed federal workers. Now that the very federal workers most adversely affected by the shutdown have given it their unequivocal support, there’s precious little reason for other Americans to care how long it lasts.

In fact, while President Trump has enjoyed great popular support for his position and has diligently solicited input from border security experts, Schumer and the Democrats have done nothing but play politics with our national security. They’ve incessentantly chanted the mantra that this is the “Trump shutdown,” banking on their outdated assumption that political pressure will always force Republicans to cave in when it comes to a government shutdown, but they’ve offered absolutely no constructive proposals for achieving the border security they profess to desire.

In a press briefing lasting less than 10 minutes, Donald Trump shattered long-held misconceptions about the political calculus of government shutdowns while exposing the Democrats’ utter refusal to take the necessary steps to secure our borders.

Not bad for a guy who only entered the political arena three years ago.

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ President Trump declared on Friday that he would consider using emergency powers to build a border wall if he can't get the project financed through Congress... But doing so would set a dangerous precedent. In response to a question during a press conference, Trump insisted he didn't need congressional approval to build a wall. "We could call a national emergency because of the security of our country, absolutely," Trump said. "We can do it. I haven't done it, I may do it. I may do it. But we can call a national emergency and build it very quickly. "He added, "But if we can do it through a negotiated process, we're giving that a shot." The U.S. system places important checks on presidential power. Though it's true that generally executive power is at its strongest in cases involving national security, for the sake of the republic, it's important to be wary of overly broad invocations of "emergency." The wider the interpretation of "emergency," then the more decisions can be arbitrarily imposed on the country by a single leader, and there lies the road to authoritarianism. Some conservatives may cheer on the idea of Trump using emergency powers to achieve their favored outcome, but if he were to go through with it, it would only be a matter of time before the next Democratic president uses expanded powers to advance a priority conservatives would find deeply objectionable... I sse your point, but the dems are being very stupid in not funding the wall.  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/it-would-be-dangerous-for-trump-to-invoke-emergency-powers-to-build-a-border-wall?utm_source=WEX_News%20Brief_01/04/2019&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WEX_News%20Brief

{dailychristiannews.com} ~ The dirty cop-Robert Mueller-led special counsel investigation has been investigating alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election... and indicted a number of Russians accused of operating an online “troll farm” to hack computers, manage fake social media accounts and sow discord among the U.S. electorate. Within that collection of Russians is Concord Management and Consulting, a firm accused of funding the alleged trolls. Concord surprisingly pushed back against the indictments, and the defense attorney they hired,  former assistant U.S. Attorney Eric Dubelier, has been giving dirty cop-Mueller and his team more than they bargained for in the fight. Rowan Scarborough of The Washington Times reported that Dubelier, who now works as a private litigator for the Reed Smith law firm and represents Concord, has emerged as dirty cop-Mueller’s “most persistent courtroom critic.” In both oral arguments and via court filings, Scarborough writes, Dubelier has made it abundantly clear that he views dirty cop-Mueller as a “rogue” prosecutor who has ignored the established guidelines of “the real Justice Department,” a distinction that obviously implies a drastic difference between the DOJ and dirty cop-Mueller’s special counsel team...

Tennessee Democrat Proposes Dangerous

It is as predictable as the sun rising in the East every morning — a Democrat member of Congress from Tennessee, Steve Cohen, has introduced a constitutional amendment to eliminate the Electoral College on the first day of the new Congress... Cohen’s amendment would provide for the direct election of both the president and the vice president of the United States by a national, rather than a state-by-state, popular vote. Cohen, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, issued a statement explaining why he wishes to change the method of presidential election crafted by the framers of the Constitution: “In two presidential elections since 2000, including the most recent one in which scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton won 2.8 million more votes than her opponent, the winner of the popular vote did not win the election because of the distorting effect of the outdated Electoral College. Americans expect and deserve the winner of the popular vote to win office. More than a century ago, we amended our Constitution to provide for the direct election of U.S. Senators. It is past time to directly elect our President and Vice President.” Cohen’s proposal to ditch the system of presidential election found in the Constitution is a symptom of the desire of many on the Left to change our system of government from a federal republic into a unitary democracy. The framers of the Constitution were not looking to create a government to insure that the will of the majority prevailed in all matters, but rather were desirous of providing the “blessings of liberty” to themselves and to those Americans would come after them. If making sure the will of the majority prevailed was the goal, then the Bill of Rights, and indeed, the Constitution itself would be superfluous...  Steve Cohen is stating his opinion and not the correct stands of the Constitution.  https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/constitution/item/31097-tennessee-democrat-proposes-dangerous-constitutional-amendments?vsmaid=2757&vcid=3421

{thewashingtonstandard.com} ~ Many journalists have quite mainstream media network news over corruption, lies lack of integrity in reporting... The latest to do so is veteran reporter William M. Arkin who quit NBC claiming that they promoted “perpetual war” and “threat mongering.” Journalist Glenn Greenwald tweeted, “Long-time reporter @warkin leaves NBC & MSNBC, emails statement saying these outlets are captive to the national security state & devoted to Endless War: “defenders of the government against Trump, cheerleader for open and subtle threat mongering”- reflexively pro-war.” NBC News has given endless war and ‘destructive’ intelligence agencies a free pass, all while fixating on around-the-clock Trump hysteria, a veteran national security reporter wrote in a biting farewell message to his colleagues. William M. Arkin had a number of pointed words to share with his fellow reporters before his last day of work at NBC on Friday – 2,228, to be exact. In his farewell memo – which reads more like a manifesto than a goodbye –the veteran muckraker accused NBC of peddling “ho-hum reporting” that “essentially condones” endless American military  presence in the Middle East and North Africa. He also took the network to task for not reporting “the failures of the generals and national security leaders,” essentially becoming “a defender of the government against Trump” and a “cheerleader for open and subtle threat mongering.”...  https://thewashingtonstandard.com/veteran-reporter-william-m-arkin-quits-nbc-exposes-them-for-promoting-perpetual-war-threat-mongering/

 {townhall.com} ~ If there is a more anti-Trump organ in the American establishment than The Washington Post, it does not readily come to mind.

Hence, in choosing to send his op-ed attack on President Donald Trump to the Post, rino-Mitt Romney was collaborating with an adversary of his party and his president.

And he knew it, and the Post rewarded his collusion.

"The president has not risen to the mantle of his office," said rino-Romney; in "qualities of character" Trump's "shortfall has been most glaring."

Our leaders must "inspire and unite us," not "promote tribalism," wrote rino-Romney. We must defend the "free press."

All music to Post ears.

As senator, rino-Romney promised, "I will speak out against significant statements or actions that are divisive, racist, sexist, anti-immigrant."

Sounds like a litany of media slanders against Trump, some of which, seven years ago, were lodged against a GOP presidential nominee whose name was rino-Mitt Romney.

Thursday, the Post paid rino-Romney in its special currency, with a Page 1 photo and headline about having discovered "a new voice of resistance."

But rino-Romney had not exactly pledged his life, fortune and sacred honor to dethrone the tyrant. Rather he declared, "I look forward to working on these priorities ... with Mitch McConnell."

A day later, The New York Times, perhaps miffed it had not been the beneficiary of rino-Romney's dump on Trump, dumped all over him:

"Romney Cools Fiery Tone After Trump Allies Assail Him," ran the headline. A CNN interview, wrote the Times, found rino-Romney "repeatedly declining to escalate his attacks on the president and explaining that he would only speak out against Mr. Trump on issues of 'great significance.'"

Does rino-Romney not see presidential character as an issue of "great significance"? The Washington Times said Romney appeared to be auditioning for the role of Jeff Flake in the new Senate.

Though the rino-Romney screenplay seemed to fizzle after the early negative reviews, the episode is revelatory.

Clearly rino-Romney senses Trump is in trouble, and may not survive, or may not run, and there may be an opening for him. He seems to want to be properly positioned with the anti-Trumpers and never-Trumpers, should that happen.

Yet, in seeing Trump as besieged, rino-Romney is not wrong.

With loss of the House and resignation of his defense secretary, the president had a rough year's end. Now the expectations of his enemies and the hopes of this hostile city for his fall are greater than ever.

Blood is in the water. If Trump seeks re-election, he will be challenged in the primaries. And as presidents from Truman to LBJ, to Carter, Ford and Bush 41 discovered, these can prove problematic.

Looking over to the other side of the aisle, however, that party, too, has problems. The more hot-headed of the House majority have already said they will introduce articles of impeachment against the president.

And when the militant members are rewarded by major media with favorable coverage and commentary, this will induce others to join in, in anticipation of the same media rewards.

An impeachment battle thus seems inevitable.

Speaker Nancy Pulosi and her Democratic leadership may see this rush to impeachment as a strategic blunder. But they will be unable to contain or control what will by spring resemble a mob.

Today, unelected media, not elected politicians, decide what gets attention. For our media, President Trump is the issue, as he was in 2016, 2017 and 2018, and removing him from the presidency the strategic goal.

But beyond the issue of Trump, 2019 looks to be a rough year for America. The deficit will reach a trillion dollars. National debt is near $22 trillion. The budget is out of balance. No consensus exists in Congress on how to deal with it.

If sanctions are not first lifted on North Korea, there will be no nuclear deal, and the probability grows that "Little Rocket Man" will begin anew to test his missiles and nuclear warheads.

With U.S. troops pulling out of Syria and Afghanistan, the day is coming, and soon, when we must face up to and act upon these facts:

America lost both wars. Afghanistan will fall to the Taliban from whom we took it in 2003, and Bashar Assad, Russia, Iran and Hezbollah are, for the near-term, dominant in Syria.

As for our Kurdish allies, they will have to turn to Assad and offer to give him the Syrian lands they captured from ISIS, in return for the Syrian regime's protection from the Turks.

And as for Russia and China, our great adversaries, our foreign policy elite succeeded in this century in undoing the best work of Nixon and Reagan.

Where those presidents split China from Russia and ensured that Beijing and Moscow would have better relations with us than with each other, our elite revels in that it has alienated both China and Russia -- and united both against us.

Pompeo Launches Middle East Tour

{freebeacon.com} ~ Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is set to depart on a tour of the Middle East next week in a bid to galvanize regional leaders to confront Iran and remind allies that the United States is not disappearing from region... amid the Trump administration's decision to pull American troops out of Syria and possibly Afghanistan, according to senior State Department officials. Pompeo will depart next week on his way to meet with government leaders in Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Kuwait. The goal of the trip is to show regional allies that the "United States is not leaving the Middle East," according to senior State Department officials who previewed the secretary's itinerary on Friday. Regional allies and enemies alike have been up in arms over the Trump administration's surprise decision to pull all U.S. forces out of Syria and Afghanistan. Rogue regimes such as Iran and Russia, as well as regional jihadi groups, have celebrated the decision to withdraw, claiming victory. U.S. officials, sensitive to the negative press surrounding the decision to withdraw, emphasized that the Trump administration is not abandoning America's role in the region and its allies... Correction on Afghanistan, not all troops will depart just half will leave.

{aei.org} ~ With his New Year’s tweet attacking retired Gen. Stanley McChrystal — “fired like a dog by President scumbag/liar-nObama a total bust. Known for big, dumb mouth” and, worst of all, “scumbag/liar-Hillary lover!”... Donald Trump is close to completing the alienation of the “Deck of Cards,” the military leaders who achieved the greatest successes of the post-9/11 Middle East wars. The list includes McChrystal, his retired Special Operation colleague Adm. William McRaven, former Secretary of Defense and retired Marine Gen. James Mattis and his battle buddy, ex-White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, and ousted National Security Adviser and retired Army Lt. Gen. H. R. McMaster. Even before his election, Trump denigrated “Failed” retired Marine Gen. John Allen. Wisely, the architects of the Iraq “surge,” Army Gens. David Petraeus and Raymond Odierno, have kept their heads below the parapet, although Petraeus has publicly said he would not serve in a Trump administration. What is perhaps most remarkable about these very public spats is that the officers involved number among the most intelligent and educated of their generation in matters of civil-military relations. Full disclosure: I contributed an essay to a book on the subject co-edited by Mattis, “Warriors and Citizens.” That they have been drawn into these chaotic and nasty exchanges is yet another example of how toxic Trump is, and how difficult it is to avoid being debased by any interaction with the man. The lemming-like loyalty with which Trump surrogates follow their leader threatens to turn what might otherwise be personal tempests into institutional civil-military climate change. Laura Ingraham and her internet organ, LifeZette, whined that the media only cared about McChrystal when he attacked Trump. The president’s echo chamber quickly expressed their delight in getting rid of Secretary Mattis. Once beloved as “Mad Dog” — a moniker the marine loathed — it turned out that the former defense secretary was little more than another Washington Swamp Creature, “repeating,” complained Christopher Roach on the Trump-backing website American Greatness, “the globalist conventional wisdom out of the New York Times.” Of course, says Roach, “Trump is smarter than the generals.”...

{freebeacon.com} ~ Democratic congressman scumbag-Elijah Cummings (Md.), the newly minted chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform  Committee, is planning to investigate the Trump administration... over its decision to include the question of citizenship on the 2020 census. After previously signaling interest in the issue, scumbag-Cummings confirmed to the Washington Free Beacon on Thursday that Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross, who has purview over the U.S. Census Bureau, will be one of the first individuals called to appear before his committee. "Secretary Ross added a citizenship question after his own Census Bureau warned that it could seriously harm the accuracy of the count," scumbag-Cummings said. "Then, Secretary Ross told Congress it was all the Justice Department's idea when evidence indicates he orchestrated the whole thing." "We will get to get to the bottom of this issue, and we will do everything we can to ensure that the upcoming census is accurate, unbiased, and counts every person—as the Constitution requires," the congressman added. In March 2018, the Commerce Department  announced that the citizenship question would reappear on the 2020 census in order to provide the most "complete and accurate" data on the citizen voting-age population. Historically, the question was included  on every decennial census between 1890 through 1950. Despite being removed from the general census questionnaire in 1950, the question appeared on the long-form questionnaire from 1970 until 2000, when it was discontinued in favor of the American Community Survey (ACS)... Why is scumbag-Cummings wasting tax money on this issue which have been on and off for centuries.  https://freebeacon.com/issues/cummings-to-investigate-trump-admin-over-census-question-on-citizenship/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=08ba68271b-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_01_04_08_52_COPY_03&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-08ba68271b-45611665

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ October 26 marked a historic day for Ireland, where citizens, in a national referendum, overwhelmingly voted to repeal the country's blasphemy law... Blasphemy remains a serious offence in many parts of the world, in some Muslim countries even requiring the death penalty. More astonishing is that even some European countries are criminalizing "defamation of religion". Recently, an actor was detained in Spain for failing to appear in court where he would face the accusation of "having insulted God and the Virgin Mary". The outcome of the Irish referendum will entail a modification of the Irish Constitution, which states in Article 40.6.1: "The publication or utterance of blasphemous, seditious, or indecent matter is an offence which shall be punishable in accordance with law." While no prosecution for blasphemy has been recorded in Ireland since 1855, the Irish police in 2015 opened an inquiry into remarks by the British comedian Stephen Fry, who said live on television: "Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid God who creates a world so full of injustice and pain?"  Even the Catholic Church, in conjunction with other Christian groups, declared the constitutional ban on blasphemy "largely obsolete", and called for its removal...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/13376/european-court-human-wrongs

Fee for Service: A Viable Health Care Alternative
by Keith R. Jackson
 
{americanthinker.com} ~ Fee for service, especially when it involves your health care, has acquired a bad name. "Why should somebody make money off of you being sick?" is the refrain from leftists when espousing their single-payer, government-controlled takeover of the United States health care economy... They complain that we should be spending money on wellness, not giving money to those who act like parasites, feeding off the misfortune of others. But "fee for service" may instead be one of the best ways to slow down our accelerating health care costs. "If the financial incentives are removed from the equation, maybe those greedy doctors will care more about the patients and less about their pay." At least that is what is constantly drilled into or heads with the left's media onslaught. TV shows like "New Amsterdam" advertise plot lines in which specialists who bill are kicked off of the medical staff because of their obtuse priorities, apparently caring more about money than people. The reality of how the economics of medicine have gotten off the rails is a complicated mess, not the least of which is the absence of transparency in cost. Many of the players in the game of getting paid to treat the sick have a vested interest in keeping the actual costs a big mystery. The real power players in medicine aren't the doctors; they are the government, the insurance companies, and the hospital corporations, all of which act incestuously and wield power that dwarfs the actual people who provide your care. Certificate of need laws that were ostensibly created to protect hospitals from bankruptcy are in fact a huge factor in facilitating escalating costs. It is against the law to attempt to open a fee for service facility to compete with the existing and entrenched local hospitals. As an example, if a group of doctors want to open a center that dramatically undercut the prices charged by the hospital for outpatient surgery, they cannot. Without competition, the rates that the hospitals charge are not challenged...

The Personality Cult of Ginsburg
Ab0Ad3StLWCaovFwvS2MuY1EkcDV-07TkkzX0jhVX9_uVHg3gaQ1vgadY9wAar2utRcz08tUsUsnWfdza_BsHE10hJwD2yYVyqlShpB3D1a5aDJPtWJKcTer8hiOpHfGJ65nycSLWicbDLO56tycHFXE8UHtr16ivQPj9ZU=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=400
by Brian Mark Weber:  Many Americans lament the demise of the federal judiciary from an independent and objective part of the American system into a branch of government that seems more self-serving and politicized than ever before. But while leftist and conservative justices alike have strayed from the vision of our Founding Fathers, none have eclipsed the cult-like status of the Supreme Court’s oldest justice: 85-year-old Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

             Of course, Supreme Court justices are only human, and they’re just as susceptible to outside influences as any politicians on Capitol Hill. But the very nature of their position demands more discipline in order to fight the temptations of a society that can turn just about anyone into a celebrity overnight.
               And even the most independent nominee can become more ideologically hardened after surviving the grind of the nomination process.
               Politico’s Peter Canellos writes, “Even if nominees aren’t particularly partisan at the outset, they quickly learn to recognize their friends and enemies; the loyalties forged in the furnace of the confirmation process carry over onto the bench. It’s only human that such anger or gratitude, growing out of a trauma that some compare to a near-death experience, would alter judicial decision-making.”
               Canellos adds, “There’s a third element to the politicization of the courts, though. That’s the visceral sense of approval and validation that judges get when they please their fans. The 60,000-member Federalist Society provides conservative judges with a Greek chorus of admirers. And many members of the Supreme Court, such as the late Antonin Scalia, couldn’t resist taking bows before conservative audiences for court rulings that devastated liberals.”
               But earning the admiration of a respected organization like the Federalist Society is nothing compared to Ginsburg’s celebrity status among leftists, many of whom weren’t even born when Ginsburg was appointed to the High Court by scumbag/liar-Bill Clinton in 1993. From the “RGB” documentary of last year to the recent biopic entitled “On the Basis of Sex,” the leftist Supreme Court justice is being turned into a mythical figure. How can fair-minded Americans expect Ginsburg, a former ACLU general counsel, to make independent decisions based on the law when she’s been deified by millions on the Left?
               As Ginsburg said in the RGB film, “I’m 84 years old and everyone wants to take their picture with me.”
               In 2016, seemingly emboldened by her superstardom, she joked that it’d be time to move to New Zealand if Donald Trump were elected. “I can’t imagine what the country would be,” she said. Later, under intense criticism from both the right and the left, she admitted regret for the comments. But she never apologized — not to the American people, nor to the Republican nominee.
               As Stephanie Mencimer writes at the far-left Mother Jones, “Ginsburg has since been tattooed on women’s arms, immortalized in song and a children’s book, and featured on [‘Saturday Night Live.’] She’s had her face plastered on everything from tote bags to water bottles. This merchandising could not have happened without the justice’s blessing; the law gives her a fair amount of control over the use of her image, as she well knows. Rather than start copyright battles, Ginsburg has encouraged her cult following. She assisted Carmon and Knizhnik with their book, appeared in the CNN documentary and makes a cameo in ‘On the Basis of Sex,’ carries an RBG tote bag in public, distributes RBG T-shirts to friends and admirers, and generally has reveled in her celebrity.”
               Mencimer adds that Ginsburg’s desire to hang on to her position on the Court actually threatens to undermine the Left’s agenda. For years Ginsburg rejected suggestions by “progressive” supporters that she retire during the Barack scumbag/liar-nObama years to ensure a like-minded successor. Now, her desire to fight on through various health issues — including recent surgery for lung cancer — at an advanced age may be setting the stage for a conservative replacement if she’s unable to outlast Donald Trump. But that’s not stopping her.
               NPR’s Nina Totenberg writes, “Even as she was secretly undergoing a series of tests and consulting an array of doctors, she made multiple public appearances and was interviewed in front of audiences three times, at one point reciting from memory the words of several arias from an opera about her famous friendship and legal dueling with the late conservative Justice Antonin Scalia.”
               The Left has professed to do just about anything, even offering to donate their own organs to Ginsburg, in order to keep her on the bench.
               But should Ginsburg retire or pass away before Trump leaves office, allowing him to replace her with a Constitution-friendly justice, the Left may one day regret the cult of personality that they alone created. And rightly so.  ~The Patriot Post

{thehill.com} ~ House Democrats on Friday introduced a sweeping government reform package designed to weed Washington of corruption and bolster voting rights across the country... two of the party’s principal campaign promises — as its top legislative priority. Central to the package is a provision requiring the president and vice president to disclose their finances and tax forms going back 10 years— a direct shot at President Trump, who has defied historic precedent by refusing to release his tax returns. “Over the last two years, President Trump set the tone from the top in his administration that behaving ethically and complying with the law is optional,” said Rep. scumbag-Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), chairman of the Oversight and Reform Committee. “This is our watch, and the American people are looking for us to take action.” The reforms have little chance of moving through the Senate, where Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) stands in staunch opposition to the proposals... This reform is after the President and republicans not dems.  https://thehill.com/homenews/house/423922-democrats-launch-drain-the-swamp-agenda

The New York Times Incentivizes Hamas Violence

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ In the Sunday New York Times — the most widely read issue of the week -- the lead story was about a young Israeli soldier whose bullet ricocheted off the ground and killed a young Palestinian medic... who had admitted to being a human shield and who was videoed throwing a smoke bomb. The next day— in the less well-read Monday issue — the Times reported on the murder and torture committed at the hands Afghan troops affiliated with and trained by the American CIA. The piece opens with the troops shooting and burning an entire family including a three-year-old girl. The number of deaths associated with these units who at times were mistaken for ISIS could not be verified but accounts put them at hundreds in one month. Apparently, the Times's editors believe that the Israeli story, involving one soldier who shot one Palestinian under questionable circumstances, deserves wider coverage than deliberate massacres perpetrated by Afghan troops trained by the CIA. The report's bias is clear from the introduction of the article and persists throughout the reporting. These reporters constantly characterized as "protesters," large groups of Palestinians that include violent Hamas fighters who carry weapons and maps of civilian targets. The Times's reporters portray the "protestors'" goals as "risking their lives to make a point" or "to break through the fence and return to their ancestral homes in what is now Israel." The goal of many of the Hamas fighters was, in actuality, to break through the fence and kidnap and kill Israeli civilians. The report accuses the Israelis of using "a policy that has taken the lives of nearly 200 Palestinians." Their biased reporting leaves the reader with the impression that all the people killed were civilians, although many were armed Hamas fighters. Even Hamas acknowledges that many of those killed were its combatant fighters...
scumbag/clown-Schumer: Trump Willing

{freebeacon.com} ~ Senate Minority Leader Chuck scumbag/clown-Schumer (D., N.Y.) said Friday that President Donald Trump is willing to keep the government closed for "months or even years."... scumbag/clown-Schumer’s comments came while speaking alongside House Speaker Nancy Pulosi (D., Calif.) outside the White House after the pair met with the president to negotiate over his refusal to pass a budget unless it includes funding for increased border security, to include funds for the southern border wall. "We told the president we needed the government open. He resisted. In fact, he said he would keep it closed for a very long period of time, months or even years," scumbag/clown-Schumer said. "In the discussion then, we discussed a bunch of issues that were contentious, and we will continue discussing, of course, but it's very hard to see how progress will be made unless they open up the government." Pulosi said the situation on border security can only be resolved if the partial government shutdown ends. "We really cannot resolve this until we open up government," Pulosi said. "We made that very clear to the president. Services are being withheld from the American people, and paychecks are being held with help from people who served the needs of the American people and our border security will suffer if we do not resolve this issue."... Then add funding for the wall.

by Nate Jackson:  For a generation, Democrats have moved ever more “progressively” to the extreme Left on climate change, advocating what we’ve dubbed ecofascist policies in order to undermine the free market in the name of combatting global warming. Their extremism continued this week, as the “new face of the Democratic Party,” commier-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is now leading a charge aimed at utterly remaking the energy sector.

             The House’s Millennial heartthrob is pushing what Democrats are calling a “Green New Deal,” which is a series of legislative proposals that the Heartland Institute’s Justin Haskins calls “the most radical policy shift in modern U.S. history, dramatically increasing the size and power of government and running up the national debt by trillions of dollars.” He explains, “According to commie-Ocasio-Cortez, the Green New Deal, which has been endorsed by Sens. commie-Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., scumbag-Cory Booker, D-N.J., Elizabeth dinky-Warren, D-Mass., and at least 40 House Democrats, would eliminate nearly all fossil fuels from the electric grid and force everyone in the country to buy from power companies selling only renewable energy.”
               Haskins also notes, “commie-Ocasio-Cortez’s proposal doesn’t merely advocate for a gigantic shift in the U.S. energy industry. Her draft resolution says one of the proposed House committee’s priorities would be ‘upgrading every residential and industrial building for state-of-the-art energy efficiency, comfort and safety.’ Taken literally, this mandate would cost trillions of dollars.” How would she pay for that? With a 70% tax on the wealthy.
               It’s ironic but predictable that just as the economy has come out of the Barack scumbag/liar-nObama doldrums, and just as U.S. energy production — primarily fossil fuels — is booming,  commie-Ocasio-Cortez and Company are increasing their socialist pressure on the energy sector. “We can use the transition to 100% [renewable] energy as the vehicle to truly deliver and establish economic, social, and racial justice in the United States of America,” commie-Ocasio-Cortez said, giving away the game.
               To be sure, with an expanded Republican majority in the Senate, this proposal stands little chance of making it beyond the House in this session of Congress. But commie-Sanders, scumbag-Booker, and dinky-Warren are all either declared or likely presidential candidates in 2020, which puts this issue at the forefront of that campaign and makes it a dire threat to American Liberty.  ~The Patriot Post

{foxnews.com} ~ President Trump fired back Friday at Democrats calling for his impeachment within moments of the 116th Congress convening... claiming he's had “the most successful first two years” of any president. Trump spoke out on the impeachment calls after a video surfaced of freshman Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib making a profanity-laced vow to remove him from office. She subsequently defended her remarks, saying she will "always speak truth to power." “How do you impeach a president who has won perhaps the greatest election of all time, done nothing wrong no Collusion with Russia, it was the Dems that Colluded, had the most successful first two years of any president, and is the most popular Republican in party history 93%? ”He also said that Democrats "only want to impeach me because they know they can’t win in 2020, too much success!" Trump's claim of 93 percent support refers only to his support among loyal Republicans. Gallup polling for months has shown his job approval ratings underwater, with support hovering lately around 40 percent. Yet amid the various controversies surrounding his administration and the recent stock market dive, Trump on Friday was armed with a major dose of positive news when the Labor Department said employers added a stunning 312,000 jobs in December, blowing past expectations...  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-fires-back-at-impeachment-frenzy-after-dems-profanity-laced-threat?utm_source=american-truth_org

Trump Delivers a Victory to Iran

{fdd.org} ~ During the presidential campaign, the outlier in Donald Trump’s foreign-policy orations was his treatment of Iran... On Europe, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Russia remember President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama’s “off-mic” tête-à-tête with President Dmitry Medvedev?, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Trump largely followed his predecessor. Differences existed, certainly in style and manner, but the overlap between the two men on most of the big foreign-policy questions was profound. When it came to the clerical regime in Iran, however, the two men were polar opposites. Trump thought the nuclear agreement with Iran, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, was “the worst deal ever.” He also let loose against Tehran’s Islamic radicalism, terrorism, quest for regional hegemony, and fondness for sowing mayhem in the Middle East. Trump’s serrated rhetoric stood in contrast to the comments of scumbag/liar-nObama, his secretary of state, and other senior officials, who had muted their criticisms of Tehran in their pursuit of the atomic accord and, as important, a new strategic realignment, wherein a less interventionist America might, so the theory went, find a modus vivendi with a richer, commercially engaged, and moderating Islamic Republic. As president, Trump followed through. The nuclear deal went down, the sanctions came back, and despite moments of wobbliness concerning troop deployments in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, the Trump administration held fast in the Middle East. National-Security Advisers H. R. McMaster and John Bolton, United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley, and, perhaps most of all, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo laid out a new approach to the Islamic Republic. The Trump administration wasn’t inclined to roll back the clerical regime, but it did seem ready to contest and contain Iran’s Shiite imperialism in Syria, Yemen, and even in Iraq, in which the president had never evinced much interest. Trump’s decision to withdraw U.S. forces from Syria, concurrently with his intention to drastically reduce the number of American soldiers in Afghanistan and the likely soon-to-be-announced further drawdown of U.S. personnel in Iraq, has made mincemeat of the administration’s efforts to contain Iran. If you add up who wins locally by this decision the clerical regime in Iran, Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, Lebanese Hezbollah, Iraqi Shiite radicals, and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and who loses Jordan, Israel, the Syrian and Iraqi Kurds and Sunni Arabs, everyone in Lebanon resisting Hezbollah, the vast majority of the Iraqi Shia, the Gulf States, it becomes clear that the interests of the United States have been routed...  https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2018/12/24/trump-delivers-a-victory-to-iran/

{frontpagemag.com} ~ The partial shut-down of the federal government grinds on while the Democrats, poised to assume the majority in the House of Representatives... refuse to fund a wall to secure the dangerous U.S./Mexican border against the un-inspected entry of people and cargo into the United States. I am compelled to reiterate a point I have made repeatedly in past articles, that a wall along that problematic border would not stop a single person from entering the United States but would force all who seek to enter the United States to undergo the statutorily required inspections and vetting process that is conducted at ports of entry and to record entries or attempted entries by aliens for national security and related purposes. President Trump has refused to sign off on a budget that does not fund the wall that would protect our nation. He has consequently opted to shut down non-essential elements of the federal government. During the failed negotiations President Trump, in confronting a belligerent and recalcitrant Chuck scumbag/clown-Schumer, said that he would be proud to shut down the government if he could not get the funding for the wall. scumbag/clown-Schumer accused the President of throwing a temper tantrum. If anyone was throwing anything, I would accuse Mr. scumbag/clown-Schumer and his cohorts of throwing America and Americans under the proverbial bus.

Erdogan’s Anti-Semitism Will Sink Turkey’s Economy

{fdd.org} ~ On Nov. 21, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan told a meeting of local elected officials that “the famous Hungarian Jew scumbag-Soros” was behind an individual who “financed terrorists”... during the nationwide anti-government protests of 2013. He added that scumbag-George Soros is “a man who assigns people to divide nations and shatter them. He has so much money and he spends it this way.” The individual whom Erdogan smears as a “terrorist financier” is Osman Kavala, one of Turkey’s leading philanthropists and civil-society activists. Turkish authorities arrested Kavala over a year ago and have held him without an indictment. The Turkish president and his media mouthpieces accuse him not only of supporting the widespread protests of 2013, which were sparked by Erdogan’s plans to raze Istanbul’s popular Gezi Park to build a shopping mall, but also the abortive coup of 2016. After Erdogan’s latest attack, scumbag-Soros’s Open Society Foundations (OSF), citing his “baseless claims,” decided to leave Turkey, likely worried that the safety of their employees was at risk. Ten days earlier, Hakan Altinay, one of the founders of the OSF’s Turkish branch, was arrested. Although OSF announced that it will “continue to support future partners in Turkey who would want to work with them,” this might prove to be impossible for local nongovernmental organizations. Pro-government media have already smeared OSF’s partners as “evil structures,” claiming that “after the Open Society Foundation of Jewish speculator scumbag-George Soros, who is an aide of the great devil the United States and Zionist Israel, fled Turkey,” German foundations picked up where they left off...  https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2018/12/24/erdogans-anti-semitism-will-sink-turkeys-economy/

House Democrats Rebuke Tlaib’s ‘Inappropriate,’ 
‘Not Helpful’ Promise to Impeach ‘************’ Trump

{freebeacon.com} ~ Both the House Democratic leadership and rank-and-file Democratic members rebuked comments from newly sworn-in Rep. Rashida Tlaib promising to impeach ‘************’ Donald Trump... "We're going to go in there, and we're going to impeach the ‘************’ ," the Michigan Democrat said at Thursday MoveOn rally in Washington, D.C., drawing cheers and whoops from the crowd. When asked about Tlaib's use of profanity in an MSNBC town hall the following morning, House Speaker Nancy Pulosi (D., Calif.) responded that it wasn't worse than anything Trump had said in the past. "I'm not in the censorship business. I don't like that language, I wouldn't use that language, I don't establish language standards for my colleagues," she responded. But Pulosi was more critical of the talk of impeachment, saying that it consolidated the president's base and disclaiming, "That is not the position of the House Democratic Caucus."... Pulosi is lying and covering up and Tialb should be booty out of congress.  https://freebeacon.com/politics/house-democrats-rebuke-tlaibs-inappropriate-not-helpful-promise-to-impeach-motherfer-trump/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=e0bbba67b6-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_03_19_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-e0bbba67b6-45611665

{city-journal.org} ~ Christopher F. Rufo joins City Journal editor Brian Anderson to discuss an urban struggle with street homelessness and the political fight around it in the Pacific Northwest’s largest city.

Known as the “Emerald City” because its surrounding areas are filled with greenery year-round, Seattle has recently seen an explosion of homelessness, crime, and drug addiction. Municipal cleanup crews pick up tens of thousands of dirty needles from the streets, and tent-villages have become a regular presence.

Seattle’s political debate on the question has been maddening: city officials who propose practical solutions to remove individuals or encampments arouse fierce opposition from progressive activists. Ultimately, courageous political leadership will be needed if the city is to solve its homelessness crisis.

70% tax on rich to fund Green New Deal: 'Call me a radical'

by Jessica Chasmar 
{washingtontimes.com} ~ Rep. commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has suggested taxing the rich as much as 70 percent to fund a sweeping economic and energy reform plan called the “Green New Deal.”... “There’s an element where, yeah, people are going to have to start paying their fair share in taxes,” the newly elected congresswoman of New York, a democratic socialist, told CBS host Anderson Cooper in an interview that’s set to air Sunday. Ms. commie-Ocasio-Cortez said taxes on the wealthy will have to be greatly increased in order to pay for the plan, which aims to reduce carbon emissions to zero and move toward 100% renewable energy within 12 years. “You look at our tax rates back in the ‘60s, and when you have a progressive tax rate system, your tax rate, let’s say from $0 to $75,000 maybe 10% or 15%, etc. But once you get to the tippie-tops, on your 10 millionth dollar, sometimes you see tax rates as high as 60 or 70 percent. That doesn’t mean all $10 million dollars are taxed at an extremely high rate. But it means that as you climb up this ladder, you should be contributing more,” she said, according to a clip  released Friday. Ms. commie-Ocasio-Cortez acknowledged that her goal is “ambitious” and would require “a lot of rapid change that we don’t even conceive as possible right now.” Mr. Cooper called her agenda “radical” — a term the 29-year-old lawmaker embraced... Not only the rich pay more but we the people will also pay higher taxes.

Ro Khanna of California encouraged migrants to “follow our process,” on “Fox & Friends” Thursday, and said the southern border must be secured... Khanna addressed the murder of a California police officer by an illegal immigrant from 2014 and debated the merits of sanctuary state policies.“No one is saying that our national federal agencies can’t do their job,” he said. “They can enforce the law. They should enforce the law.” What we’re saying is we shouldn’t federalize local police officers and state officers. They often have to enforce the law locally and work with people in local communities who may be undocumented to solve homicides or domestic violence cases. They should do their job. The feds should do their job. And it really is a federalism issue, but no one is saying that people should be harbored or should interfere in the federal government’s ability to execute the law.

Democrats Pass First Bill After Taking Over House:
Forcing Americans to Fund Planned Parenthood

{lifenews.com} ~ In a vote late tonight, House Democrats passed a bill attempting to end the partial government shutdown that also funds the Planned Parenthood abortion giant... The vote on the bill came just hours after Democrats took over the House and installed abortion activist Nancy Pulosi as Speaker. Democrats want to restore the $100 million President Donald Trump took away from Planned Parenthood when he defunded its International arm during his first week in office. The Trump policy prohibits taxpayer funding to international groups that promote and/or provide abortions overseas. The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2019 repeals President Trump’s Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance policy, which stops U.S. taxpayer funding of the abortion industry overseas. The House voted 241 to 190 for the bill with all Democrats voting for it and all but 7 Republicans voting against it. Despite passing the pro-abortion measure, in a Statement of Administrative Position for President Trump, the White House said the president will veto the bill. “If either H.R. 21 or H.J. Res. 1 were presented to the President, his advisors would recommend that he veto the bill,” it said. The statement mentioned the pro-life concerns about the bill...  https://www.lifenews.com/2019/01/03/democrats-pass-first-bill-after-taking-over-congress-forcing-americans-to-fund-planned-parenthood/

{foxnews.com} ~ One of the most powerful Democratic City Council members in Chicago has been charged with extortion... accused of trying to shake down a fast-food restaurant seeking remodeling permits, said a federal complaint unsealed Thursday. Alderman Ed Burke, 75, is charged with one count of attempted extortion for conveying to company executives of a Burger King in 2017 that they’d get the permits if they signed on as clients at his private property tax law firm, the 37-page complaint said. A conviction carries a maximum 20-year prison sentence. Burke made an initial appearance on Thursday in U.S. District Court in Chicago. A preliminary hearing is set for the afternoon of Jan 18. The Democrat’s law firm, Klafter & Burke, represented the high-rise tower that bears President Trump’s name. There’s no indication the case is at all tied to his firm’s work for Trump. Klafter & Burke specializes in property tax appeals, and its former clients included Trump’s luxury tower in downtown Chicago...

{jewishworldreview.com} ~ Why the author-- a longtime JWR contributor -- is ending her weekly column

When I was 12 years old, my family took our first trip outside the United States. 

We came to Israel on a two-week family tour. It was July 1982. The Lebanon War had just begun. In retrospect, it was the first step on what has become my lifelong Zionist journey.

I was moved by everything I saw. The IDF soldiers hitchhiking home for leave from the battlefields in Lebanon looked like movie stars. Ma’aleh Adumim, now a major city, was a clutch of mobile homes in the desert but the gleam in the eyes of the settlers showed the promise of what was to come.

The markets of Jerusalem, the beaches in Tel Aviv, the shells of Syrian tanks on the Golan Heights and the fish in the Sea of Galilee captivated my imagination.

The Western Wall awoke me to the immutable fact that the Nation of Israel, the Land of Israel and the Law of Israel are indivisible.

Hearing Hebrew, the language of prayer shouted out from every corner filled me with awe. And seeing the multiethnic society of Jews from every corner of the world shook me to my core. After two thousand years, in an act of will with no parallel in human history, Jews of all races, backgrounds, and cultures; Jews with unique, fervently kept traditions came home and began patching together a people forcibly separated for 50 generations.

During that first trip to Israel, I understood that the future of the Jewish people was being forged in Israel, not in the Diaspora, not even in my warm community on the south side of Chicago.

I loved America. But I wanted to move to Israel.

Nine years later, in 1991, two weeks after I finished college, I fulfilled my wish. I boarded an El Al flight to Tel Aviv with a one-way ticket in my hand. A week later, I took my first step towards the second stop on my Zionist journey: the Israel Defense Force. Two months after dropping down, I started basic training.

I served in the IDF for five and a half years, leaving as a captain. Most of my service was spent in negotiations sessions with the PLO. As the coordinator of negotiations on civil affairs with the Palestinians in the Defense Ministry, I was a core – if junior – member of the Israeli negotiating team during the Oslo peace process years.

In the IDF, as in all the stations I passed in my professional life, I viewed my work as a calling. I always believed that I had the ability to impact the country and the people for the better, and that it was my duty to try to do so.

For the past 18 years, as a writer in Israeli and international media, it has been my conviction that my job is to use my pen, my keyboard and my voice to shape and expand Israel’s maneuver room whether in relation to the international arena, to military questions, to legal affairs or to political issues.

The job of a commentator is to interpret reality. The media’s habit of simplifying issues by treating everything as an either-or proposition is disastrous for formulating policy. Israel’s options are rarely binary. On almost all issues, Israel has a full spectrum of options. Yet, due to media pressure, our leaders often miss them. 

To advance its interests in the international arena, for instance, Israel doesn’t need to bow before foreign powers. It needs to show foreign powers that they want what Israel has to offer and that it is in their interest to work with Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is the only prime minister Israel has had that fully understands and implements this basic truth.

The same is the case with the Palestinians. Israel has nothing to fear in its dealing with the Palestinians. The choice we were presented with for more than a generation – either peace with a Palestinian state or war without one – was a false and destructive conceit. It was based on a wide array of lies and delusions. I devoted hundreds of columns and my book, The Israeli Solution, to expose them.

So too, if we want to understand historic processes unfolding, we need to understand history. I saw it as my job as a columnist to explain the relevance of history to our current challenges and to expose the ignorance of much of what passes for historical wisdom in the popular discourse, whether in relation to German history, to Jewish history, to American history, or to Islamic history.

Over the past several years, I found myself returning over and over again to the study of basic issues of governance. This was no esoteric exploit.

Over the past several years, the term “rule of law” in Israel has been turned on its head. Rather than denote the dispassionate enforcement of duly promulgated laws, it has come to mean what President Reuven Rivlin once referred to as the tyranny of the “rule of law mafia,” that is, the rule of unchecked lawyers.

Israel’s Basic Law: Knesset defines the Knesset as the sovereign. That is because the public elects its members in national elections. Members of Knesset in turn, elect the government as the executive arm of the people’s will. That is how it works in democracies. The parliament legislates laws. The executive implements policies in accordance with the law and the mandate it receives from the public at the ballot box. The job of the judicial branch is to interpret laws.

Over the past several years, and with growing intensity in the past four years, the authority of the Knesset to promulgate laws has diminished. The combined forces of the attorney-general and the justices of the Supreme Court have seized not only the power to abrogate laws and interfere with the legislative process, but to dictate laws through legal opinions and judgments. The same goes for executive power. Not only have the justices and attorneys arrogated to themselves the power to cancel government decisions and policies, they have also asserted the power to dictate policies to the government.

Through these acts of the legal fraternity, the powers of Israel’s elected officials have been whittled down. This week we learned that Supreme Court president Esther Hayut has quietly empaneled a forum of 11 justices to determine the legality of Basic Law: Israel as the Nation-State of the Jewish People.

In Israel, Basic Laws are essentially the constitutional foundations of the state.

If Hayut goes through with adjudicating petitions against the law, even if the justices rule that the Basic Law is legal, by claiming the power to adjudicate a Basic Law, the justices will seize the power to undermine the foundations of the state.

 The Law of Return, which is the anchor of Jewish peoplehood and the ingathering of exiles, has long been a red flag for post-Zionist radicals who reject Israel’s right to exist as a specifically Jewish state. There is every reason to believe that if the justices seize the power to undermine Basic Laws, they will not hesitate to go after the Law of Return.

Watching this dangerous trend of events, I have used my position as a columnist to warn the public about what is happening and to empower Israel’s politicians to fight for their powers. If Israel is to maintain its democracy, our elected officials must be empowered to challenge the legal fraternity and restore to the Knesset the sole power to legislate laws.

Given the gravity of the situation, the disputes over Israel’s borders, its energy policies, its immigration policies, its economic policies and its military policies become secondary concerns. The key question that hangs in the balance today is whether the Knesset will restore its power as the repository of the people’s will in accordance with law or will it become a mere debating society with the actual power to determine Israel’s future devolved entirely to bureaucrats ruled by a handful of unelected lawyers and judges? Because if the latter happens, the people will lose all ability to determine the outcome of every other aspect of national life.

Every once in a while, over the past year or two, I found myself wondering whether I should throw my hat into the ring and enter politics. Could I be effective in advancing the goal of restoring the powers of the Knesset from inside the Knesset or am I better off staying where I am? Since this was a purely hypothetical question, I left it open.

This brings me to my decision this week to move to a new stop on my Zionist journey. 

This week I decided to respond positively to an offer from Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked and Education Minister Naftali Bennett to join their new party, the New Right (Hayamin Hehadash), and run on their Knesset slate.

True, there is more than one party that reflects my views in the Knesset, at least officially. But in recent years, the political leaders who have done the most to translate my positions into action have been Shaked and Bennett.

They share my concern for Israel’s future as a democracy. They dare to insist that to restore and strengthen Israeli democracy, the current power balance between bureaucrats on the one hand and elected officials on the other must be turned on its head. Whether they are discussing the vast expansion of the power of military lawyers over field commanders in the IDF, the necessity of enforcing the laws of Israel over its Arab citizens with the same alacrity as it is enforced over its Jewish citizens, or rejecting the notion that the Supreme Court has the power to overturn Basic Laws, Bennett and Shaked have consistently communicated and advanced positions I view as critical for the future of the country.

No less importantly for me as a proud Jew who never understood what I see as a largely artificial distinction between religious and secular Jews, their new party doesn’t seek to serve just one type of Israeli. It seeks to represent the full spectrum of the Israeli society that I saw and fell in love with, in all its rich diversity, in that pivotal first visit in the summer of 1982.

I am convinced that restoring Israel’s democratic institutions is the most urgent task we face today. And while I would have been happy to continue advocating for legal reform from my position in the media, when Bennett and Shaked asked me to join them in their efforts to advance this goal from the Knesset, I said yes with little hesitation.

The Zionist journey I began in 1982 has taken me places I could never have dreamed of. It is my deepest hope and my intention that on my next stop, I will have the privilege of advancing the Zionist enterprise I fell in love with so many years ago.

Democrats move to protect dirty cop-Robert 
Mueller on Day 1 of new Congress

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ Democrats, on their first day in control of the House, moved to offer protections to special counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller... Led by incoming House Judiciary Committee Chairman scumbag-Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., a group of Democrats introduced legislation that would protect dirty cop-Mueller from being fired by President Trump. scumbag-Nadler was joined by Democratic Reps. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas and Steven Cohen of Tennessee to introduce the legislation, which codifies existing Justice Department regulation that mandates a special counsel may be removed only for “misconduct, dereliction of duty, incapacity, conflict of interest or other good cause.”The move comes after newly elected House Speaker Nancy Pulosi was asked if  dirty cop-Mueller should abide by Justice Department guidance that states a sitting president can’t be indicted as a result of what the investigation turns up. “I do not think that that is conclusive,” Pulosi said in the interview with NBC News, which aired early Thursday before she was elected House speaker. “No, I do not.” The legislation, which is bipartisan and has 123 co-sponsors, does have Senate counterpart. That legislation was passed out of the Senate Judiciary Committee in April 2018, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., refused to bring it to the floor for a full vote, despite demands from some Republicans...These dems and some repub are assane.

{thehill.com} ~ Sometimes public silence can be deafening or, for that matter, misleading. For nearly two years now, the intelligence community has kept secret evidence... in the Russia collusion case that directly undercuts the portrayal of retired Army general and former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn as a Russian stooge. That silence was maintained even when former acting Attorney General Sally Yates publicly claimed Flynn was possibly “compromised” by Moscow. And when a Democratic senator, scumbag-Al Franken of Minnesota, suggested  the former Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) chief posed a “danger to this republic.” And even when some media outlets opined about whether Flynn’s contacts with Russia were treasonous. Yes, the Pentagon did give a classified briefing to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) in May 2017, but then it declined the senator’s impassioned plea three months later to make some of that briefing information public. “It appears the public release of this information would not pose any ongoing risk to national security. Moreover, the declassification would be in the public interest, and is in the interest of fairness to Lt. Gen. Flynn,” Grassley wrote in August 2017...

{thehill.com} ~ A federal appeals court on Friday overturned a lower court’s ruling blocking President Trump’s ban on transgender people serving in the military from taking effect... The ruling hands Trump a win in a case that has seen several courts block the policy. But the policy still cannot take effect because of those other injunctions, which applied nationwide. “Although today’s decision is not a final determination on the merits, we must recognize that the Mattis Plan plausibly relies upon the ‘considered professional judgment’ of ‘appropriate military officials’ ... and appears to permit some transgender individuals to serve in the military consistent with established military mental health, physical health, and sex-based standards,” wrote a three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. “In light of the substantial constitutional arguments and the apparent showing that the policy accommodates at least some of plaintiffs’ interests, we think that the public interest weighs in favor of dissolving the injunction.” Trump announced over Twitter in July 2017 that he intended to ban all transgender people from serving in the military. Four lawsuits were filed against the ban, and lower courts in all four cases had blocked the policy from taking effect as the suits work their way through the legal system...
Republicans relinquish Congress with whimper:
'More missed opportunities than anything'

{washingtontimes.com} ~ Republicans closed out two years of control over the political branches of Washington on Thursday with a whimper, leaving a government still in partial shutdown... and a long list of priorities left undone. Asked about their record, GOP lawmakers said they were proud of the tax overhaul in December 2017, which also included long-sought permission to drill for oil in an Alaskan preserve and a repeal of scumbag/liar-nObamacare’s individual mandate to purchase health insurance. But they struggled to recall other marquee moves, pointing instead to promises unkept to repeal outright the 2010 Affordable Care Act, abortion politics and a host of immigration battles. “The failure of this Republican Congress to repeal scumbag/liar-nObamacare, secure our borders and address our deficit and debt may be a pivot point in the failure of America going forward,” said Rep. Mo Brooks, Alabama Republican. It was a major letdown for lawmakers who had been promised they would get “tired of winning.” Even when GOP leaders won big bipartisan votes, such as pumping money into anti-opioid addiction efforts or a generational reform of sentencing policies that could cut the federal prison population by tens of thousands, they didn’t seem to earn credit, with turmoil at the White House and ego-testing skirmishes on Capitol Hill overshadowing their work...
Strategic Working Group Strengthens 
U.S.-South Korea Alliance
by David Maxwell

{fdd.org} ~ North Korea’s main newspaper condemned the U.S. this morning for preventing reconciliation between Seoul and Pyongyang... This criticism amounts to an indirect admission that Seoul and Washington have begun to coordinate their diplomacy more effectively, thanks in part to the high-level strategic working group they established last fall. In October, newly appointed U.S. Special Representative for North Korea Stephen Biegun and his South Korean counterpart Lee Do-hoon established the strategic working group; meetings began in November, both face-to-face and via video teleconference. The creation of the working group reflects both short-term pressures and the longstanding need for improved coordination. Following last September’s summit between Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae In, where the two leaders approved the Panmunjom Declaration and a Comprehensive Military Agreement, friction arose in the U.S.-South Korea alliance over the perceived dearth of prior consultation. The previous year, President Trump criticized Seoul for pursuing North-South rapprochement too quickly and in a manner that was not synchronized with U.S. denuclearization efforts. As part of its ongoing efforts to drive a wedge in the U.S.-South Korea alliance, North Korea rhetorically attacked the new strategy working group within days of its establishment, saying it was a U.S. attempt to meddle in North-South relations and prevent the South from engaging with the North without U.S. approval. In his New Year address on Tuesday, Kim Jong Un indicated that he wants to separate North-South relations from his denuclearization negotiations with the U.S. In effect, he wants to prevent precisely the kind of coordination achieved by the new working group...

President Trump Isn't the Enemy, 
Mr. rino-Romney

by David Limbaugh

{cnsnews.com} ~ Two days before he was sworn in as Utah's junior U.S. senator, Mitt rino-Romney published an op-ed in The Washington Post, publicly broadcasting, once again, his disapproval of President Donald Trump. Disappointing, but not surprising.

Something seems to compel those in the never-Trump crowd not only to perpetually obsess over Trump but also to constantly remind us of their profound distaste for him — lest it escape our top-of-mind awareness.

A few things popped out at me when I read rino-Romney's piece — apart from his flagrant hypocrisy in reigniting his public relations campaign against Trump after abandoning it when seeking to be Trump's secretary of state.

Why did rino-Romney believe he needed to write this now — as his first volley — instead of first expressing his intention of trying to work with Trump to move his agenda forward in what promises to be a very tumultuous time, with militant, partisan Democrats about to assume control of the House?

Why would rino-Romney choose to publish his piece in the overtly liberal Washington Post? Are political liberals and the mainstream media his constituency now? It would be one thing for a newly minted GOP senator to take on Democrats in that publication, but it's quite another for him to harshly criticize his party's president in a paper that exclusively speaks for the opposition party — a party that will doubtlessly leverage this op-ed against the president and in favor of the Democrats' policy agenda, which rino-Romney has been telling us for years he abhors.

Does rino-Romney mean to undermine and demonize GOP border enforcement hawks and other Republicans at this critical time when he piously proclaims that he "will speak out against significant statements or actions that are divisive, racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, dishonest or destructive to democratic institutions"? Exactly what statements or actions is he calling racist and anti-immigrant? I ask because I've heard some never-Trumpers outright denounce border enforcement supporters as nativists and racists not because any statements they've made could remotely be construed as anti-immigrant and racist but because they callously and wrongly presume or pretend to presume that their fierce opposition to illegal immigration and their desire to encourage assimilation and preserve national sovereignty, the rule of law and an orderly immigration process are somehow racist. This is below the belt, destructive and, yes, quite divisive, Mr. rino-Romney — with your own party, no less.

What other statements or actions of President Trump does rino-Romney consider divisive? Is he equally agitated over the Democrats' unapologetic divisiveness, or is his angst reserved only for Trump and his Republican supporters? Stated another way, if rino-Romney was so eager to write an op-ed before he'd even set foot in the Senate, why didn't he use it to call out Democrats for telegraphing their intent to use their newfound control of the House to unleash partisan hell on President Trump? Or is making nice with these self-pronounced partisan militants and their media cheerleaders more important to rino-Romney than fighting their toxic agenda?

What Trump actions does rino-Romney believe are "destructive to democratic institutions"? I, for one, am tired of hearing this Democratic trope that Trump is threatening our democratic institutions when he has done nothing of the sort and has been appointing constitutionalist judges who are dedicated to shoring up our democratic institutions and, unlike President scumbag/liar-nObama, has refrained from issuing lawless executive orders to advance his agenda. Why, Mr. rino-Romney, do you want to legitimize this false charge against President Trump? We Republicans faithfully supported you in your 2012 presidential bid and wouldn't have considered undercutting you like this.

Why, Mr. rino-Romney, do you feel it is necessary to announce that you "will support policies that you believe are in the best interest of the country and your state, and oppose those that are not"? How many Democrats would send a public message to the country that by gosh, they will not support their president if he's doing things they believe are not in the country's best interest? Can't some things just be left unsaid, or is it necessary in every other paragraph to remind Americans that Trump embarrasses you and you'll only grudgingly support him — and then, only when you have to?

Why couldn't you have kept your powder dry rather than virtue-signal to leftists who'll never love you any more than they did Sen. rino-John McCain? Are you so consumed with distaste for Trump that you are blind to the Democrats' far worse partisanship and divisiveness? Are you really unaware of the Democrats' stated intentions to wage political war against Trump for the next two years or until they run him out of office? Do you not see that enabling the Democrats in this way could help to advance their nightmarish agenda? Which will you oppose more, Trump's bad manners or the Democrats' socialist, culturally nihilistic agenda? Which is less in the nation's interest?

It is not President Trump who threatens the nation's interest, Mr. rino-Romney, but the Democratic Party, which you have just gone out of your way to assist — whether you realize it or not.

{patriotnewsalerts.com} ~ While we have been led to believe that the special counsel, dirty cop-Robert Mueller, will soon be submitting his final report, one former Justice Department employee warns that it may not happen quite so soon... John Lauro, a former federal prosecutor, said Tuesday on “America’s News HQ” that this investigation could go on for “many, many months,” dismissing Trump attorney Rudy Guiliani’s recent criticism of dirty cop-Mueller. Giuliani, who has taken over as Trump’s personal lead attorney, has had about all he can take from this investigation. The former mayor of New York City unleashed a barrage of tweets aimed at dirty cop-Mueller and his investigation over the New Year’s weekend.As Giuliani pointed out, two years in, we still have seen no evidence of Russian collusion with the Trump team to impact the presidential election. But Lauro, who previously worked for the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, believes the investigation is worthwhile. He pointed to the former Trump advisers and associates that had been indicted on various charges...    https://www.patriotnewsalerts.com/mueller-investigation-will-drag-on/

scumbag/liar-nObamacare Is Unconstitutional,
But The Texas Judge Was Wrong To Strike It Down

by Michael Autery
{thefederalist.com} ~ On December 14, District Court Judge Reed O’Connor ruled that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) is unconstitutional... Earlier this year, some 20 conservative state attorneys general sued in federal court arguing that since the tax law that passed last year reset the individual mandate penalty to zero, it’s no longer a tax. When the Supreme Court weighed in on scumbag/liar-nObamacare for the first time in 2012, they ruled that the individual mandate was constitutional, but only as a tax. So if it’s no longer a tax now because it raises no revenue, it’s no longer constitutional. That’s fair enough, but the problem with the ruling is the next argument. The states’ attorneys general claimed that the rest of scumbag/liar-nObamacare must also be unconstitutional because the rest of the law cannot be “severed” from the individual mandate. Judge O’Connor agreed. scumbag/liar-nObamacare is probably the worst piece of legislation in American history, but this judge’s decision was based on a weak legal argument and will almost certainly be overturned. The first argument actually does make sense: in National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) v. Sebelius in 2012, Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the 5-4 majority, only upheld the mandate by  essentially rewriting the law to reinterpret the penalty for noncompliance as a tax under the general welfare clause...

The announcement was especially surprising because Der Spiegel enjoys a reputation for meticulousness. Its fact-checking department, the largest of its kind in Europe, is the pride of the magazine. Der Spiegel has long been the magazine of choice for highbrow, liberal Germans who stand guard over polite society. Their initial reaction, parroting Der Spiegel’s initial announcement, has been to cast the magazine as a victim before applauding it for transparency in publicizing the deception. After all, as Der Spiegel’s incoming editor-in-chief, Steffen Klusmann,   put it in a brief interview, “It’s most likely that no one could have discovered this.” So how did Relotius deceive an army of professional journalists for years and trigger the biggest journalism scandal in decades?

The Wicked Gender-Deluded Mob Must be Defeated
by Trevor Thomas

{americanthinker.com} ~ Most mobs are dangerous, and this is especially true of a mob on the wrong side of one of the oldest truths in the history of humanity... Dealing with the gender-deluded mob is like engaging a throng of toddlers throwing a coordinated temper tantrum. You can't reason with them. As a wise, loving, and moral parent would, you merely bring an end to the nonsense with whatever appropriate force is necessary. Like a toddler pitching a fit to eat cookies for dinner, if you are so askew in your thinking that you believe that "gender is a spectrum," or that biology is bigotry, you don't deserve to be heard, and you certainly don't deserve a debate. You must simply be brought into line. If this doesn't happen, as is the case with an undisciplined child who grows into a wild teenager and then a foolish adult, disaster looms. Driven by the perverse LGBT agenda, while aided and abetted by the ignorant and immoral mainstream media and the devilish Democratic Party, "transgender" disasters are playing out all around us. While some of these disasters have "only" resulted in an adult temper tantrum, a lawsuit, or the loss of a job, others have literally put lives in danger, including those of children. Recently, when a GameStop employee in Albuquerque, New Mexico failed to address a dude dressed like a lady as "ma'am," an f-bomb-laced outburst ensued. "She" sounded hideous, but "she's" a guy, so... Along with being berated by foul language, the poor store clerk was threatened with assault. Isn't it amazing how quickly these large dudes who want to be women threaten violence?...

by Jordan Candler:  The midpoint of President Donald Trump’s first term is fast approaching. One area in which the Trump administration deserves accolades is in its curtailing of government regulations. As the Competitive Enterprise Institute’s Clyde Wayne Crews reports, in 2017, the Federal Register — the government’s regulation repository — “concluded with 61,308 pages under Trump; that was the lowest count in a quarter-century (since 61,166 pages under scumbag/liar-Bill Clinton in 1993).” It’s also significantly below Barack scumbag/liar-nObama’s 2016 record of 95,894 pages.

             “This time,” Crews continues, “2018 Federal Register  has topped out at 68,082 pages. … That’s a 10 percent increase for Trump over his first year.” However, some important context is in order: “It’s not as bad as it seems. … Rules and regulations cannot be revoked, only replaced by new ones under the 1946 Administrative Procedure Act’s public notice-and-comment process. … So, for Trump to get rid of a rule … his agencies have to write a rule. So in a perverse sense, he can’t shrink the Federal Register page count and the number of rules, but has managed to do it anyway by writing fewer new regulatory rather than deregulatory ones. Meeting the two for one [deregulation] directive is getting tougher without congressional action as the low-hanging fruit is picked.”
               As far as actual rules are concerned, Crews says, “Under Trump, there has also been a substantial reduction in the number of rules and regulations published within all those  Federal Register pages. The Federal Register closed out 2018 with 3,367 final rules in all. The only lower count was 3,281 under Trump a year ago, which was the lowest count since records began being kept in the mid-1970s. … scumbag/liar-nObama’s own lowest count was 3,410, not much more than Trump’s new score. But fewer of scumbag/liar-nObama’s rules would be expected to have been devoted to rollbacks of prior initiatives, the emphasis of Trump’s ‘one-in, two-out’ executive order.”
               The Washington Examiner reports on another important consideration: “In what Crews has dubbed the ‘Unconstitutionality Index,’ Trump has also slashed the percentage of new rules to new laws passed by Congress and signed by Trump, he wrote in a second report issued Monday. Trump’s 2018 index was 12: 3,367 new rules compared to 291 new laws. The Index reached 29 under scumbag/liar-nObama.”
               The bottom line? Trump is swimming upstream, yet he continues to do excellent and historic deregulatory work.
               On a related note, December’s job report was exhilarating. An eye-popping 312,000 jobs were added. This was an astonishing 136,000 higher than economists’ expectations. According to CNBC, “Wages jumped 3.2 percent from a year ago and 0.4 percent over the previous month.”
               And while the unemployment rate rose slightly to 3.9%, that’s actually good news, as more people are entering the job market. Moreover, CNSNews reports, “The number of employed Americans has now set a 14th record under Trump: When Trump became president in January 2017, 152,076,000 Americans were employed. Last month, that number grew to a record 156,945,000, a gain of 4,869,000 in two years.”
               CNSNews adds, “In December, the unemployment rate for Hispanics and Latinos, aged 16 and up, was 4.4%, down from 4.5% in November — tying its record low of 4.4% set in October of this year.” NBC News called the jobs report “whopping,” while the Associated Press described it as “stellar.” Those words provide as good a clue as any the magnificence of this report, and it’s in large measure thanks to Trump’s agenda of getting the government out of the way.  ~The Patriot Post

In the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Which Side
Is Really Committing Ethnic Cleansing?

{freebeacon.com} ~ Anti-Israel activists and commentators often say the Jewish state commits ethnic cleansing, if not outright genocide, against the Palestinians... Even senior officials at the United Nations—but I repeat myself—have accused  Israel of such crimes, as have prominent figures in Western media and academia. These voices are actually correct in a general sense: one side of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict does use policies to achieve ethnic cleansing. It's just not Israel. On Monday, a Palestinian court in Ramallah  sentenced a Palestinian-American to life in prison with hard labor, after just a one-week trial. What was the heinous crime? Issam Akel, a resident of east Jerusalem and a U.S. citizen, was found guilty of selling property to Jews, specifically a house in the Old City of Jerusalem to a Jewish Israeli organization. The Palestinian Grand Criminal Court said he attempted "to cut off a part of the Palestinian land and add them to a foreign country." Now the Palestinian Authority (PA) is planning to extradite Akel to the U.S. amid heavy pressure from Washington to release him, according to reports. But many details of the possible extradition remain unclear. Akel's sentencing came a week after the PA announced that it had foiled attempts to sell lands and houses in the West Bank and east Jerusalem to Jewish buyers. The PA's security forces said they arrested 44 Palestinians involved in the transactions, adding that at least three of the suspects had already been sentenced to 15 years of hard labor. Under Palestinian law, selling or attempting to sell land to Jews is a crime, punishable by hard labor, imprisonment, and even execution. In recent weeks, Palestinian religious authorities have repeatedly warned that anyone who engages in such deals will be accused of "high treason."...

{dailycaller.com} ~ Former Democratic Virginia Sen. Jim Webb is reportedly being considered as a possible replacement for retiring Defense Secretary James Mattis... According to a report from The New York Times, Webb has been approached by representatives for both Vice President Mike Pence and acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney. Representatives for Vice President Mike Pence and Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, have reached out to Mr. Webb, one of the three officials said. Separately, a senior Defense Department official confirmed that Mr. Webb’s name had been circulating at the White House. Those two and the third official all spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the internal discussions. Webb’s vocal opposition to the Iraq war and former President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama’s Iran Deal — along with his belief that China should be dealt with aggressively — seem to align him with much of President Donald Trump’s foreign policy. He also fails to align with the more progressive Democrats on other key issues like climate change...  https://dailycaller.com/2019/01/03/jim-webb-replace-mattis-defense-secretary-reports/?utm_medium=email

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ "I hear prominent Americans, disappointed that China has not become a democracy, claiming that China poses a threat to the American way of life,"... Jimmy Carter wrote on the last day of 2018 in a Washington Post op-ed. That claim, Carter tells us, is a "dangerous notion." There is nothing more dangerous than a notion from the 39th president, even on China. China, despite what he said, threatens not only America's way of life but also the existence of the American republic. Chinese ruler Xi Jinping has, in recent years, been making the extraordinary case that the U.S. is not a sovereign state. The breathtaking position puts China's aggressive actions into a far more ominous context. Carter, and almost all others who comment on Chinese foreign policy, see Beijing competing for influence in the current international order. That existing order, accepted virtually everywhere, is based on the Treaty of Westphalia of 1648, which recognizes the sovereignty of individual states that are supposed to refrain from interfering in each other's internal affairs. Those states now compete and cooperate in a framework, largely developed after World War II, of treaties, conventions, covenants, and norms. Many Chinese policymakers believe they are entitled to dominate others, especially peoples on their periphery. That concept underpinned the imperial tributary system in which states near and far were supposed to acknowledge Chinese rule...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/13497/china-sovereign-state

rino-Corker Bill Aimed at Undermining 
Trump’s Broadcasting Chief Dies

{freebeacon.com} ~ A group of conservative senators successfully stopped a last-ditch effort to weaken the power of President Trump's choice to lead the nation's taxpayer-funded global broadcasting operation... The move paves the way for Senate confirmation of Michael Pack, Trump's choice to head the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM). The USAGM, previously called the Broadcasting Board of Governors, oversees the Voice of America and other U.S. taxpayer-funded broadcasting operations countering the propaganda arms of American adversaries such as Russia, Iran, and China. A bill sponsored by Sens. Bob Menendez (D., N.J.) and former Sen. rino-Bob Corker (R., Tenn.), which critics argued would seriously undermine the incoming head of the USAGM, died on the vine when the previous Congress ended and the 116th Congress convened Thursday afternoon. A group of conservative senators opposed the late 2018 effort to try to diminish Pack's power even before he started the job.

House Dems Usher in the Resistance
uSeo2mvMFT2XRNHqXrzZ6de6gu7cLr3-JXdktOfYVWIM0wGIrZPvVFMiC4Bi4pANcY9RHryQOYVhFsw9jtbYHqfe0R25M7MWk3fEnyQUDNUuf0IljidjUPbrljlFWaMx40VM7oHW5K5-zvfxhk9k2YhgSibp9tC80QQlnmA=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=400
by Thomas Gallatin:  In December, the U.S. economy added 312,000 jobs, capping a year of strong economic growth and reaching 2.6 million new jobs in 2018. The bad news has been stock market volatility, for which President Donald Trump blamed Democrats: “As I have stated many times, if the Democrats take over the House or Senate, there will be disruption to the Financial Markets. We won the Senate, they won the House. Things will settle down. They only want to impeach me because they know they can’t win in 2020, too much success!”
               Once again, Trump is right on the mark, as was clearly demonstrated by House Democrats on Thursday. Taking over the chamber after their midterm election win, Dems promptly used their new majority to offer nothing but a sequence of anti-Trump legislation and recession-triggering, big-government power grabs.
               Cuing the #Resistance, House Socialists under Speaker Nancy Pulosi (D-CA) passed a spending bill that does not provide any funding for a border wall. In even more futile gestures, Rep. scumbag-Brad Sherman (D-CA) introduced articles of impeachment against Trump, while Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) proposed a constitutional amendment to abolish the Electoral College. Obviously, House Democrats’ legislative agenda is all about promoting themselves and resisting the president.
               Where is the Democrat concern over maintaining the surging economy? Where is the proposed legislation that would provide greater protection for Americans by securing the nation’s borders? With all the Demo fearmongering over the supposed danger Trump poses to the nation’s system of governance, where is the legislation that would limit government abuse of power? Where in the Democrats’ legislative agenda is the commitment to promote and protect Americans’ individual liberty as defined by the Constitution?
               The fact is, Democrats offer nothing but a hate-Trump platform of anger, division, and Liberty-stifling, economy-destroying socialism. Their concern is promoting anything that gives them greater power and control over the American people.
               As Mark Alexander notes, “Unfortunately for all Americans outside the Beltway, blocking the Trump administration’s agenda may get Democrats the recession they want ahead of the 2020 elections. For the next two years, job and income prospects for tens of millions of American workers will fall victim to the Demos’ politically induced recession.”

{cnsnews.com} ~ "How many more times can we say no? Nothing for the wall," presumptive House Speaker Nancy Pulosi (D-Calif.) told NBC's "Today" show... in an interview that aired on Thursday. Two House Republicans, in response, said Democrats like Pulosi are more intent on frustrating the president than they are on serving the country's best interests: "I say, let's take the case to the American people," Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) told Fox News Wednesday night. Appearing with Jordan, Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) said most Americans want a safer community and a secure border. He announced that Republicans have just launched a petition drive in support of the border wall: We've opened up borderwallnow.com, where we're encouraging grass roots across the country -- just started today -- where they go in and sign a petition and say we are standing with the president, we want border security. But it's really going to be your viewers and people like them across the country that have to speak up...

The Coming Democratic Disillusion

{freebeacon.com} ~ On Thursday, after eight years in the minority, Nancy Pulosi returned to power as speaker of the House of Representatives. Her party controls 235 seats to the Republicans' 199... One contest, in North Carolina, has yet to be decided. The Democratic majority is a couple seats larger than the one Pulosi led more than a decade ago. Back then a Republican resided in the White House as well. By the seventh year of his presidency, when some 100 U.S soldiers were killed in Iraq every month and gas on average cost $2.80 per gallon, George W. Bush was about as popular as Donald Trump is today. And in 2007, as we all remember, Pulosi's Democrats set about enacting universal health care and ending the war in Iraq. Fooled you! Actually, the victories of the 110th Congress were much more modest: a minimum wage increase, lobbying reform, and a ban of incandescent light bulbs. Health care had to wait for a subsequent Congress and a Democratic president. So did withdrawal from Iraq—though retreat didn't work out as planned, and America returned, in much smaller numbers, in 2014. The history of Nancy Pulosi's tenure as speaker is a reminder of the limitations and tenuousness of political victories and defeats. I suspect Pulosi is aware of this lesson. I doubt her caucus is. More than a quarter of them are freshmen, many are young, and two are self-avowed democratic socialists. They are inclined to believe history began when Barack scumbag/liar-nObama entered Mile High Stadium in Denver. It's an impression encouraged by cable news, which spent the run up to Pulosi's investiture celebrating the youth, diversity, and ambition of the House Democratic freshmen. And yet, for all the talk of Alison Spanberger and the "Badass Caucus," of how commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib "aren't going to take no for an answer," of grand plans for a Green New Deal and Medicare for All, there remains the inescapable reality of power. Democrats don't really have it. Indeed, they have even less than the last time Pulosi became speaker...  https://freebeacon.com/columns/the-coming-democratic-disillusion/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=94b5cec881-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_01_03_10_41_COPY_139&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-94b5cec881-45611665

{theconservativetreehouse.com} ~ In the realm of everything geopolitical in consequence, a recent article from an interview with Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro highlights the globalists’ worst nightmare... And the comments from the WTO reflects the global influence of President Donald J Trump.  Before getting to two key points, rather stunningly delicious points, it’s worth remembering that Brazil is the “B” in the ‘BRICS alliance’. Before U.S. President Donald Trump took center stage in the world of international influence, the former governments of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) had formed a coalition. Each nation represented an enlarged -and growing- regional trade/economic influence. Shortly after taking office; and with hindsight – prior to the China confrontation; President Trump began a systematic process of challenging various economic influencers. This is the origin of the Trump Doctrine . By expanding U.S. energy development, strategically engaging with OPEC (Gulf Cooperation Council) States, and simultaneously engaging with Baltic States at the Three Seas Summit in Warsaw Poland, President Trump established the groundwork for downward pressure on oil prices. This comprehensive and geopolitical energy strategy diminished the ability of Russia to maintain a consistent external financial influence...    https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/01/03/stunner-bolsonaro-open-to-u-s-strategic-alliance-military-base-in-brazil/

Russia to Deploy Precision

{freebeacon.com} ~ Russia is deploying long-range, precision cruise missiles to the western Atlantic that American defense officials say will allow Moscow to target Washington and other East Coast cities... with conventional or nuclear attacks. Moscow is adding Kalibr land attack cruise missiles to both warships and missile submarines that Moscow plans to use in Atlantic patrols near the United States, sorties that were once routine during the Cold War. The new sea-based Kalibr deployments are expected in the coming months, according to officials familiar with intelligence reports of the Russian maritime operations. The land-attack version of the Kalibr, known as the SS-N-30A by NATO, is a relatively new weapon and was showcased for the first time by Moscow in attacks on Syria that began in 2015... Is Russia planning a 9/11 attack?

Times Square Ball Drop Cheers Islamic Terror
by Daniel Greenfield 

{sultanknish.blogspot.com} ~ The most miserable place in the world to be on New Year’s Eve is in Times Square where tourists who don’t know better are trapped in crowd control cattle pens with no bathrooms. Even if it doesn’t rain, no amount of corporate swag can compensate for having to stamp your frozen feet in puddles of urine with nothing to eat or drink for hours, in the faint hopes of actually seeing the big ball drop.

In addition to all the other miseries are the terror threats. With two million people expected to pack into a handful of blocks, New Year’s Eve in Times Square is on every Islamic terrorist’s Christmas wish list. 

ISIS has made repeated threats to hit Times Square. And the NYPD is deploying countless cameras, drones, counter-sniper teams and bomb sniffing dogs. There are garbage trucks full of sand to stop car attacks like the one that killed 8 people near Ground Zero, when Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, a Muslim Uzbek immigrant, ran down tourists, and slammed into a school bus, shouting, “Allahu Akbar”. 

After Akayed Ullah, a Muslim immigrant from Bangladesh, tried to blow himself up in the Times Square subway in December of last year, New York City cops are being trained to handle suicide bombers. Anyone trying to get inside the Times Square cattle pens gets screened at two separate points, sniffed by ‘Vapor Wake’ dogs, and forced to pass through a gauntlet of portable metal and radiation detectors. 

The more than 5,000 police officers will be checking bags no bombs, guns or alcohol are allowed, evacuating 125 local garages, patrolling the hallways of area hotels and screening their guests. These elaborate security measures make an already miserable event more miserable. 

But they are necessary because of the history of Islamic terror in Times Square. 

In 2010, Faisal Shahzad, a Pakistani Muslim immigrant, tried to detonate a car bomb in Times Square. The 2008 IED bombing of the Times Square military recruiting station still remains unsolved, despite camera footage of the perpetrator and a sizable reward. In 2012, Raees Alam Qazi and Sheheryar Alam Qazi, Pakistani Muslim immigrants, scouted New York bombing targets, including Times Square.

Two other Muslim brothers, Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Chechen refugee immigrants who carried out the Boston Marathon bombing, had wanted to detonate six bombs in Times Square. 

In 2016, Mohamed Rafik Naji, a Yemeni Muslim immigrant who, like the Ground Zero car attacker worked as an Uber driver, talked about running over people in Times Square with a truck. This year, Abdulrahman El Bahnasawy, the Muslim son of Egyptian immigrants to Canada, was sentenced to 40 years in prison for terror plots that included the potential bombing of Times Square. 

But why bother with the wands and secondary screenings, the vapor dogs, drones and helicopters? On this New Year’s Eve, Islamic terrorism is the guest of honor at the Times Square ball drop. 

Jamal Khashoggi, the media’s favorite Jihadist, is being honored as his Washington Post editor, Karen Attiah, will be one of the guests of honor looking down on the masses freezing in cattle pens below. 

Khashoggi had gotten his start glamorizing Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan at the behest of a man named by the Treasury Department as one of “the world’s foremost terrorist financiers”. Osama and Jamal had been old friends and fellow members of the Muslim Brotherhood international Jihad network. When Osama bin Laden was getting Al Qaeda off the ground, he had called Khashoggi with the scoop. 

Afterward, Khashoggi had gone to work for Prince Turki bin Faisal, allegedly linked to Al Qaeda by the twentieth hijacker. There, he tried to spin 9/11 by blaming it on American foreign policy and Israel. 

Americans "want total cooperation in their fight against terror according to their own definition of what terrorism is and exactly who the terrorists are. But Saudi Arabia will not give in to such demands," he had declared. 

After the Saudis decided to get out of the Islamic terror business, Khashoggi turned to the biggest remaining Sunni state sponsor of terror, Qatar. While the media clamors that he was a “journalist”, even his backers were recently forced to admit that his columns were actually lobbying by Qatar. 

“Text messages between Khashoggi and an executive at Qatar Foundation International show that the executive, Maggie Mitchell Salem, at times shaped the columns he submitted to The Washington Post, proposing topics, drafting material and prodding him to take a harder line against the Saudi government,” the Washington Post conceded. 

The Qatar Foundation was set up by the terror state’s former Emir and is chaired by his consort. The Foundation had sponsored events involving Islamic clerics, including Omar Abdelkafi, who had described the Islamic massacre of Charlie Hebdo journalists in France as “the sequel to the comedy film of 9/11”. 

The Washington Post, the Times Square Alliance and New York City are treating an Osama bin Laden friend and terror state lobbyist as a journalist, while the Qatar Foundation that ran him sponsored an Islamic figure who mocked the actual murder of journalists by Islamic terrorists. 

The Qatar Foundation had also allegedly hosted Saleh al-Moghamsy, who had praised Osama bin Laden, Abdulaziz al-Fawzan, who had urged "positive hatred" of Christians, and Salman al-Audah, who had accused Jews of baking matzos for Passover with "human blood", claiming that they believe "that this brings them close to their false god.” 

This is what the Washington Post got in bed with when it began publishing the Qatar Foundation’s catspaw. And this is what the rest of the media crawled into bed with when it turned him into a martyr. 

This is the toxic torrent of Jihadist anti-Semitic, anti-Christian filth being celebrated with the ball drop in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. 

When Salman al-Audah was facing the death penalty as part of Saudi Arabia’s new reform initiatives, Qatar’s Al Jazeera informational propaganda network came to his defense, calling the vile bigot a “reformer” and “prominent scholar” who has fallen victim to a crackdown on “dissent” against the Muslim Brotherhood. 

The Saudis have also arrested Abdulaziz al-Fawzan, and Qatari and Muslim Brotherhood fronts have launched a “human rights” campaign in his defense. 

When the media stands on the side of Qatar, this is what it’s supporting. And the stench of Qatari collaboration is worse than even the smell of sweat and urine in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. 

The Qatari terror regime is closely tied to Iran and backs every Islamic terror movement from the Taliban to Hamas. The 9/11 Commission report found that a member of the Qatari royal family had harbored Sheikh Khalid Mohammed, the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks on America. 

Abdulkarim al-Thani, a member of Qatar’s royal family, allegedly ran a safe house for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the mastermind of Al Qaeda in Iraq, the terror group that eventually turned into ISIS. 

Why bother subjecting tourists from Wisconsin and Texas to multiple screenings to stop ISIS, when you’re using the ball drop as a platform for the political allies and backers of ISIS?

House Democratic Rules Package Could 
Mean More Spending, Higher Taxes

As Congress gears up for the new term, the House of Representatives is preparing a vote this week on rules to govern the 116th Congress... A few notable provisions are grabbing the headlines, such as allowing the speaker to “intervene” in challenges to scumbag/liar-nObamacare, establishing a new select committee on climate change, and making it harder to call for a mid-session vote for speaker. But several provisions impact the federal budget, and not for the better. Rather than promoting fiscal restraint, the House is considering rules changes that would move in the opposite direction. The results could mean more deficit spending and higher taxes for many Americans. Here are four proposed rules changes the House should reconsider. 1. Adoption of a “Gephardt rule,” which would allow the House to avoid a direct vote on the debt limit.  2. Eliminating dynamic scoring.  3. Removing supermajority protection against tax increases.  4. Allowing amendments to appropriations bills that increase net spending... Rules changes are an opportunity for Congress to take on more budget restraint and transparency. Here are three alternative rules changes that would further those goals. 1. Account for interest costs when considering legislation.  2. End unauthorized appropriations.  3. Reinstate the Holman rule...  https://www.dailysignal.com/2019/01/02/house-democratic-rules-package-could-mean-more-spending-higher-taxes/?mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTmpNMVpEZzRObVZsWkRkbSIsInQiOiIzQnlRSE1lVkI1dFBnV2VWK0FqZ1wvSGo1ZkdJXC9yQ09QUmkxZzVvMHl5XC9EUWFyOEVnU1wvVTUxOEh2RGc2Q1BrT2ZZeHhvbGxBb3VrbnlNZWZBQXRXMnhmbmhnRXR0UGlYK1pEREhwSE5SNGc5Wjd1b0cyM255TlUyYnlwUDVtemoifQ%3D%3D

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ A California Democrat is wasting no time trying to impeach President Trump as the Democratic Party retakes control of the House... Rep. Brad Sherman plans to reintroduce a measure Thursday — the first day of Democratic control of the chamber — that accuses Trump of obstructing justice in the Russia investigation. Sherman listed the firing of former FBI Director scumbag-James Comey as proof of the alleged obstruction. “There is no reason it shouldn’t be before the Congress,” Sherman said, according to the Los Angeles Times. “Every day, Donald Trump shows that leaving the White House would be good for our country.”Sherman originally introduced the measure in 2017 with Rep. Al Green, D-Texas. “I author Articles of Impeachment not to change our national policy,” Sherman said in a statement at the time. “I served with Mike Pence in Congress for twelve years and I disagree with him on just about everything. I never dreamed I would author a measure that would put him in the White House. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment to begin a long process to protect our country from abuse of power, obstruction of justice, and impulsive, ignorant incompetence.” Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pulosi, D-Calif., said Democrats will have to wait and see what special counsel dirty cop-Robert Mueller concludes in his investigation before moving on impeachment... Sherman is showing his hatred for Trump. He has no other evidence.

{freedomoutpost.com} ~ A newly sworn-in mayor in Mexico was assassinated on his first day in office. Alejandro Aparicio Santiago... a member of the National Regeneration Movement, had just taken office in Tlaxiaco when he was attacked. Alejandro Aparicio Santiago had just taken office Tuesday and was walking to his first official meeting at city hall when a group of gunmen opened fire. The mayor died at the hospital, according to The Associated Press. Aparicio was a member of the Mexico's National Regeneration Movement, MORENA, the party of newly elected President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. The Oaxaca branch of the party issued condolences and a call for authorities to punish those responsible. A suspect has been taken into custody. Tlaxiaco is the hometown of Yalitza Aparicio, star of the film "Roma." Mexico has seen its share of assassinations of politicians who have been against the crime syndicate. Earlier this year, in June, we reported that 113 Mexican politicians had been killed in less than a year...

{dailysignal.com} ~ While the White House and U.S. military commanders insist no decision has been made, Washington is alive with speculation... that President Donald Trump intends to order the withdrawal of half of the 14,000 U.S. military personnel currently operating in Afghanistan. The president, who has been critical of the Afghan war in the past, made an abrupt decision to withdraw all U.S. military personnel from Syria last month, so the threat of ordering a similar move in Afghanistan is not a hollow one. It would, however, be a mistake. Each week, a new media outlet trots out a different statistic to show how the Taliban is either gaining ground, losing ground, or has fought the U.S. and Afghan government to a stalemate. The latter is probably the closest to the truth, but even that can be deceiving: A stalemate implies gridlock, but not parity. As several of my Heritage Foundation colleagues recently explained, the Taliban can indeed operate freely in large parts of the rural countryside, but they only “control or influence” areas where 10.5 percent of the Afghan population lives. The government’s writ, meanwhile, extends to areas where 65 percent of the population lives. The rest is contested...  https://www.dailysignal.com/2019/01/02/why-america-cannot-afford-to-pull-out-of-afghanistan/?mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTmpNMVpEZzRObVZsWkRkbSIsInQiOiIzQnlRSE1lVkI1dFBnV2VWK0FqZ1wvSGo1ZkdJXC9yQ09QUmkxZzVvMHl5XC9EUWFyOEVnU1wvVTUxOEh2RGc2Q1BrT2ZZeHhvbGxBb3VrbnlNZWZBQXRXMnhmbmhnRXR0UGlYK1pEREhwSE5SNGc5Wjd1b0cyM255TlUyYnlwUDVtemoifQ%3D%3D

New Mexican President Makes 
Bold Move to Reduce Migration to the U.S.

{restoreamericanglory.com} ~ The election of new Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador could prove to be the best thing to happen for the United States since the election of Donald Trump himself... Unlike his predecessor, the man known popularly as AMLO is serious about working with the U.S. to reduce the number of immigrants flowing across the border, and he’s willing to take bold steps towards keeping Mexicans in Mexico. This includes the creation of economic “free zones” along the border, which will hopefully encourage the kind of economic growth that Mexico needs to stay competitive in a global marketplace. The San Diego Union-Tribune reported this week that AMLO has announced The Tax Incentive Decree for the Northern Border Region proposal to attract investments to the area and cut down on the number of Mexicans looking for employment in the United States. Inside the zone, the paper reports, income taxes will be reduced by a third and sales taxes will be slashed in half on imported goods. Minimum wages will go up by 100%, and fuel prices will be cut to match those found in the United States. “It’s going to be the biggest free zone in the world,” AMLO said. “It is very important to project for winning investment, creating jobs and taking advantage of the economic strength of the United States.”AMLO cannot be confused with a “Mexican Donald Trump” as far as policy style goes; he veers to the left while Trump leans to the right. But in their populist styles, they are more similar than they are different, leading many to figure that Trump and AMLO could work better together for the good of both nations. We can question whether what Mexico’s economy needs right now is a kind of heavy-handed, government-funded economic free zone, but if it helps cut down on the number of “economic refugees” that come across the border, it’s all the better for us...  http://www.restoreamericanglory.com/breaking-news/new-mexican-president-makes-bold-move-to-reduce-migration-to-the-u-s/

Mattis Sends Powerful Farewell 
Message On Last Day In Office
by KARA PENDLETON

{westernjournal.com} ~ There have been a lot of rumors and speculation being floated since news broke that Gen. James “Mad Dog” Mattis was exiting his role as secretary of defense.

Mattis had huge support from both sides of the aisle when he was first nominated for the position.

He made clear in his resignation letter that he had some disagreement with President Donald Trump over certain decisions. To some this reflected badly on Mattis, but to others it was an honorable thing for him to leave so someone who was on the same page with the commander in chief could serve him better.

Any question about the man’s honor and integrity may be put to rest with his leaked final farewell message to Department of Defense employees. A class act to the end, Mattis did not bash the current administration but offered words of encouragement to the federal workers.

Those powerful words, now leaked, could apply to more than workers he was specifically addressing. Americans everywhere can also find encouragement and hope in his parting message.

Mattis quoted a Civil War telegram from President Abraham Lincoln to Gen. Ulysses S. Grant was in his message.

The brief statement began with that quote: “Let nothing which is transpiring, change, hinder, or delay your military movements, or plans.”

He then offered his own words of encouragement.

“Our Department’s leadership, civilian and military, remains in the best possible hands. I am confident that each of you remains undistracted from our sworn mission to support and defend the Constitution while protecting our way of life.”

“Our Department is proven to be at its best when the times are most difficult. So keep the faith in our country and hold fast, alongside our allies, aligned against our foes.”

His words were the polar opposite of those of outgoing President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama, who told troops at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida to “speak your mind and protest against” authority. He also spoke to them about their right to “criticize a president without retribution,” which could be taken as encouragement to speak out against then-incoming President Donald Trump. 

In Mattis’s resignation letter he vowed to do all he could to make it a smooth transition for all involved

“I pledge my full effort to a smooth transition that ensures the needs and interests of the 2.15 million Service Members and 732,079 DoD civilians receive undistracted attention of the Department at all times so that they can fulfill their critical, round-the-clock mission to protect the American people.”

His farewell message to the members of the DOD showed that commitment in action. In his resignation, Mattis spoke of waiting until February to leave so there would be sufficient time for the administration to do their part in replacing him.

Initially, Trump echoed Mattis’ leave date. But later that changed.

In Mattis’s resignation letter he vowed to do all he could to make it a smooth transition for all involved

“I pledge my full effort to a smooth transition that ensures the needs and interests of the 2.15 million Service Members and 732,079 DoD civilians receive undistracted attention of the Department at all times so that they can fulfill their critical, round-the-clock mission to protect the American people.”

Mattis’ final memo showed no ill will toward the president, nor did he encourage federal employees to rebel against or “criticize” the president.

His words were encouraging and hopeful. He spoke of DOD employees staying focused on doing their jobs and serving the public, despite any “distractions.”

Regardless of how he may have felt, Mattis remained steadfast in acting with integrity. And that is one of the qualities many have admired in him.

{cnsnews.com} ~ "How many more times can we say no? Nothing for the wall," presumptive House Speaker Nancy Pulosi (D-Calif.) told NBC's "Today" show... in an interview that aired on Thursday. Two House Republicans, in response, said Democrats like Pulosi are more intent on frustrating the president than they are on serving the country's best interests: "I say, let's take the case to the American people," Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) told Fox News Wednesday night. Appearing with Jordan, Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) said most Americans want a safer community and a secure border. He announced that Republicans have just launched a petition drive in support of the border wall: We've opened up borderwallnow.com, where we're encouraging grass roots across the country -- just started today -- where they go in and sign a petition and say we are standing with the president, we want border security. But it's really going to be your viewers and people like them across the country that have to speak up...https://borderwallnow.com/bsn06/s

Senate approves 77 Trump nominations

{washingtontimes.com} ~ The Senate approved 77 Trump nominations in an end-of-Congress deal Wednesday night, filling out the ranks of federal prosecutors, ambassadors, the White House science adviser and the post of anti-drug czar — but no new judges... The deal came on the final day of the 115th Congress, with Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, standing alone on the chamber floor, reading out the nomination numbers then confirming them by voice vote. The move caps what’s been an extraordinary two years of both unprecedented action and obstruction, and presages battles still to come over the next two years. First up will be a decision for Mr. Trump on some 300 or so nominations that still languish, including more than 85 judicial picks that never saw final action. Under normal rules, all of those will expire at the end of the old Congress, marking a victory for liberal activists who’d warned Democratic leaders against any en masse approvals. Mr. Trump can renominate them in the new Congress, where many will again face Democratic delays. But the president’s backers are getting restless and one of them says he should be more aggressive and flex his recess appointment powers, installing a bunch of picks in the time between the end of the old Congress  on Thursday and the convening of the new one...  https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/jan/2/senate-approves-77-trump-nominations-in-end-of-con/?utm_source=Boomtrain&utm_medium=manual&utm_campaign=20180326&utm_term=newsalert&utm_content=newsalert&bt_ee=7vwEbDaER1WGGmy7Vc%2Fk%2BiegwwyeUY0WTKQgg%2BwiVqdT9tN8PLByHJwt0f%2FNHan1&bt_ts=1546481069451

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ How will the standoff over funding President Trump's proposed border wall end? Possibly the same way previous immigration impasses have ended... with a flood of money, celebration of whiz-bang technology, and little new in the way of actual physical barriers to stop illegal border crossings. The latest clues come from Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, the four-term Democratic congressman from New York who will become chair of the House Democratic Caucus starting Thursday. Jeffries appeared on CNN Wednesday morning and was asked what border security measures Democratic leaders would approve, given their  opposition to spending $5 billion on a wall. Well, in the bill that we're going to put on the floor tomorrow," Jeffries responded, "we're going to allocate $1.3 billion in additional funding to allow for enhanced technology, cellphone towers, satellites, drones, enhanced fencing, increased communication capability, the things that the experts have said are necessary to improve border security." CNN anchor John Berman pursued Jeffries' mention of "enhanced fencing." What did that mean? "If you are willing to have, you know, smart, big fences with all kinds of technology, isn't there room to negotiate between that and concrete?" Berman asked. "Well, there are areas along the border where there are currently fences that are put up, or barriers that are put up that need to be enhanced, and consistent with what the policy experts have said are helping to improve our security along the border," Jeffries answered... In other words no walls.  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/columnists/byron-york-democrats-ready-new-old-plan-for-border-security

{westernjournal.com} ~ Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel chastised her uncle, GOP Senator-elect rino-Mitt Romney of Utah... for a Washington Post Op-Ed he wrote which is highly critical of President Donald Trump. On Wednesday, McDaniel tweeted, “POTUS is attacked and obstructed by the MSM media and Democrats 24/7. For an incoming Republican freshman senator to attack @realdonaldtrump as their first act feeds into what the Democrats and media want and is disappointing and unproductive.”The GOP chair included Trump’s tweet addressing rino-Romney’s Tuesday Op-Ed, in which the president said: “Here we go with rino-Mitt Romney, but so fast! Question will be, is he a rino-Flake? I hope not. Would much prefer that rino-Mitt focus on Border Security and so many other things where he can be helpful. I won big, and he didn’t. He should be happy for all Republicans. Be a TEAM player & WIN!” In rino-Romney’s scathing piece, the 2012 GOP presidential nominee wrote that Trump’s “conduct over the past two years, particularly his actions this month, is evidence that the president has not risen to the mantle of the office.” “A president should demonstrate the essential qualities of honesty and integrity, and elevate the national discourse with comity and mutual respect,” rino-Romney added...  https://www.westernjournal.com/republican-chair-goes-uncle-mitt-romney-disappointing-attack-trump/?utm_source=Email&utm_medium=libertyalliance&utm_campaign=dailypm&utm_content=libertyalliance

{dailycaller.com} ~ On today’s packed Daily Daily Caller Podcast we can’t help but notice how liberals are not off to the best start for 2019... Utah Senator-Elect rino-Mitt Romney sounded like a liberal when he attacked President Donald Trump’s character in The Washington Post. The 2016 campaign of commie-Bernie Sanders is facing allegations of sexual harassment and sexual violence. More tear gas is deployed on the border. The Women’s March is falling apart as marches are being canceled across the country. Minority lawmakers in New York live large off a charity that doesn’t do any charity work and much, much more.  rino-Mitt Romney won’t be sworn in as Utah’s junior senator until tomorrow, but he’s already attacking the president. In an op-ed for The Washington Post, rino-Romney attacks the president as a man of low character, pledging essentially to become the new rino-John McCain — the Republican who spends a lot of time attacking other Republicans to the delight of the media. We dissect rino-Mitt’s complaints. Apparently the 2016 presidential campaign of commie-Bernie Sanders was a rolling party of sexual harassment and violence, according to former campaign staff. What took so long? And what the hell was going on in the commie-Sanders campaign if a group of staffers are coming out with this now? They don’t give any specifics, but they do what liberals always do when bringing these sorts of allegations to light — blame everyone. We tell you how and rip it all apart...

About That Crazy Cabinet Meeting...
Z8kUomeT8uM8GDoWx2yX6gBCsS_pFpEPIwj8RmTh3r6i4Xg4FXv-6l5gR3uv_cx3E0s_I0Psi8CjGP8OHE4xKErkWmpuIMCz2o3VEuP0_aHWI8ZenZsYF7pyRJtnLQcEOd_oNDtXJyexzJ987VwF_0XExgGDI-rnJGesJHQ=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=400
by Nate Jackson:  We’ve written many times about President Donald Trump’s extraordinary record of implementing remarkably conservative policies. Not everything he’s touched is gold, but his record is quite good. We’ve also noted that one of the biggest hurdles to his agenda is that he gets in his own way. That was seemingly the case with his Cabinet meeting Wednesday.

             The rabidly anti-Trump Washington Post ran what was framed as a news story but was really another editorial in disguise. That said, the paper wasn’t wrong in its lede: “President Trump, 12 days into a government shutdown and facing new scrutiny from emboldened Democrats, inaugurated the new year Wednesday with a Cabinet meeting. It quickly became a 95-minute stream-of-consciousness defense of his presidency and worldview, filled with falsehoods, revisionist history and self-aggrandizement.”
               Two comments in particular highlighted the problem with Trump’s freewheeling rhetorical style. Of former Defense Secretary James Mattis, Trump declared, “What’s he done for me? How had he done in Afghanistan? Not too good. … I’m not happy with what he’s done in Afghanistan. I want results.” Then Trump posited, “I think I would have been a good general, but who knows?”
               Maybe if Trump hadn’t received five draft deferments from serving in Vietnam we’d see how he compared to Gen. Mattis’s lifetime of dedicated service to our nation. In any case, the commander-in-chief should not be so condescending and arrogant toward career uniformed Patriots.
               Trump’s comments about the Soviets in Afghanistan also merit a facepalm. “Russia used to be the Soviet Union. Afghanistan made it Russia, because they went bankrupt fighting in Afghanistan,” Trump said, arguing that’s why American should pull out of long and expensive wars. But the Soviet Union became Russia again because of Ronald Reagan’s successful efforts to win the Cold War.
               Moreover, Trump continued, “The reason Russia was in Afghanistan was because terrorists were going into Russia. They were right to be there.” Wrong. The Washington Examiner’s Quin Hillyer explains why: “The invasion was an application of the Brezhnev Doctrine, which promised the use of Soviet armed force to crush any attempt to roll back communism or attain human rights, anywhere the Kremlin considered within the Soviet sphere of influence. The doctrine was, in a word, evil. Tens of millions of people had human rights, or hopes for them, destroyed, and of course many thousands lost their lives.”
               Trump either doesn’t understand this or, as he is wont to do, he gets himself tied in rhetorical BS knots because he rambles — especially when on the defensive.
               But never mind all that. Trump asserted, “They say I am the most popular president in the history of the Republican Party.” There are indeed metrics by which that might be true.
               A final note: We’re often accused of being “too anti-Trump,” and this piece probably serves as evidence to those folks that we’re no different than rino-Mitt Romney. But we’re also accused of being “too pro-Trump,” which is a good way to remind readers that we endeavor simply to call it like it is. Our mission is to advocate Liberty and constitutional government. When Trump aligns with that, great. When he doesn’t — or when he gets in his own way — we’ll call him out for it. That isn’t “anti” or “pro” — it’s just the truth.  ~The Patriot Post
