{ legalinsurrection.com } ~ When The Washington Post broke the story that Christine Blasey Ford was the person who accused Supreme Court nominee of assault dating back to high school, there were several aspects of the WaPo story that struck me as particularly strange.
First, there was a suggestion that this is a repressed and recovered memory case:
“Years later, after going through psychotherapy, Ford said, she came to understand the incident as a trauma with lasting impact on her life.”
If this is a case of repressed memory, then it changes everything. It’s a convenient explanation for why Ford said nothing to anyone for 30 years despite herself being a clinical psychologist. Repressed and recovered memory, however, is of questionable veracity and admissibility in court.
Second, that repressed memory allegedly was recovered in 2012 during couples’ therapy,
Ford said she told no one of the incident in any detail until 2012, when she was in couples therapy with her husband.
Why in couples therapy, not in individual therapy? That seems like an odd time to recover memory, particularly for a clinical psychologist who likely underwent or practiced various forms of psychological therapy during her long career. This suggests that perhaps there was some marital problem which implicated an earlier trauma, if this story is true, or invented an earlier trauma as an excuse, if the story is not true.
Third, Ford volunteered the therapist’s notes to WaPo, but only selective portions chosen by Ford:
The therapist’s notes, portions of which were provided by Ford and reviewed by The Washington Post, do not mention Kavanaugh’s name but say she reported that she was attacked by students “from an elitist boys’ school” who went on to become “highly respected and high-ranking members of society in Washington.” The notes say four boys were involved, a discrepancy Ford says was an error on the therapist’s part. Ford said there were four boys at the party but only two in the room.
It seems odd for an alleged sexual assault victim to volunteer psychiatric records, particularly since the odious “nuts and sluts” defense so frequently is used against accusers. And why were only selective portions shared? This seems particularly calculating and defensively preemptive.
My gut tells me the therapy records hold a key to what did or did not happen here. Having voluntarily shared a part of those records with a newspaper, it’s hard for Ford to argue confidentiality.
It becomes even more important in light of Sen. Dianne Fein-stein’s statement today that Ford “is a woman that has been, I think, profoundly impacted, on this..I can’t say that everything is truthful. I don’t know.”
Kavanaugh already has agreed to testify under oath at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Monday, September 24, 2018. As of this writing, it’s not clear if Ford will appear though I assume she will.
Without the full couples therapy records Ford already partially shared with the Washington Post, I’m not sure we’ll ever really know how and why this allegedly repressed memory was recovered, or whether it actually is a memory.

{ sultanknish.blogspot.com } ~ Two million people arrived in Germany in 2015 and 1.8 million people next year in 2016.
Jawed came to Germany in 2015, while Abdul had arrived the year after in 2016. Both Jawed and Abdul were Afghan Muslim migrants. Both applied for asylum and had their asylum applications rejected.
Abdul Mobin Dawodzai was recently sentenced to eight years in prison for stabbing to death Mia Valentin, a 15-year-old girl, to death. Jawed went to Amsterdam and stabbed two American tourists at the central station.
Abdul was angry that Mia broke up with him. Jawed was angry about insults to Islam and Mohammed.
Jawed’s German residence permit enabled him to carry out a terrorist attack in Amsterdam. He mentioned Geert Wilders, the pioneering Dutch leader who was recently forced to cancel a Mohammed cartoon contest due to violent Islamic threats, and so the media has chosen to blame the terrorist attack on Islamic cartoons rather than Islamic terrorists. But Jawed is part of a larger trend of Afghan violence.
Both Jawed and Abdul carried out their stabbing attacks in public. The victims, a 15-year-old girl and American tourists, also brought more attention to a type of ordinary terror that has overtaken Europe.
In March, Hussein Khavari, an Afghan refugee who had fled to Germany in 2015, was sent to prison for raping and murdering Maria Ladenburger, a 19-year-old German student. But Hussein wasn’t fleeing Afghanistan; he was fleeing Greece, where he had thrown a 20-year-old female student off a cliff after robbing her. The Greeks sentenced him to a decade in prison, but Hussein fled to Germany instead.
Like Abdul, Hussein claimed to be a minor when he was actually in his twenties. He may not have even actually been from Afghanistan.
Afghans, it’s been noted, stand out for their rate of violence, even among other Muslim migrants.
A refugee expert warned in a National Interest article that, "young Afghan men... were committing sex crimes to a much greater extent than other refugees." Among the incidents she cited was, "a gang of fifty Afghans who terrorized women in the neighborhood of the Linz train station" in neighboring Austria.
Train stations are a common venue for Afghan Muslim violence and abuses. A small sampling of sexual assaults committed by Afghan refugees last year in Germany, collected by Gatestone’s Soeren Kern, included, a sexual assault on an 19-year-old woman on a train station in Hamburg, two sexual assaults by one Afghan man on two trams in Mannheim, a sexual assault on a 14-year-old girl at a station in Munich, another assault in Munster, and two Afghans who sexually assaulted a 14-year old girl in Gera.
Not to mention the three Afghan migrants accused of sexually assaulting a 12 and 14 year old at a swimming pool, and the Afghan refugee, and repeat offender, who raped a 13-year-old girl.
Angela Merkel, Germany’s open borders leader, had briefly ramped up Afghan deportations in response to public outrage, until a massive bombing in Kabul last year led to yet another change in policy.
The tanker truck bomb targeted the German embassy in Afghanistan’s capital, and succeeded in doing massive amounts of damage, even though German intelligence had 5 months of warning from four different sources. The German embassy had been warned 6 days before the attack and was able to evacuate staff ahead of time. Instead the bombing was exploited as a pretext for suspending the deportations of Afghans from Germany unless they were criminals or considered a serious threat.
Merkel’s deportations had removed less than 200 Afghans from the country. But the bombing put an end to even that miniscule effort.
The thousands of Taliban fighters who, according to the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF), had entered Germany and applied for asylum, could conveniently no longer be deported.
Earlier this year, a German court sentenced Abdol Moghadas, an Afghan refugee, to four years in prison for his role in the death of Pfc. Christian Jacob Chandler: an American soldier serving in Afghanistan.
Abdol was one of Germany’s many Taliban fighters.
Why have so many Taliban gone to Germany? One answer might lie in the covert relationship between the Taliban and German intelligence. It was Germany who had pioneered diplomatic talks with the Taliban, and who had welcomed Taliban leaders onto German soil.
It was certainly curious how German authorities had received every possible warning about a Taliban truck bomb whose sole impact was protecting thousands of Taliban in Germany from deportation, while giving German authorities the excuse to shut down the deportations they hadn’t wanted to carry out.
The end of deportations didn’t just benefit the Taliban fighters, but failed asylum seekers like Jawed and Abdul who could no longer be deported even though their asylum applications had been turned down. Germany had sharply dropped its acceptance rate of Afghan asylum applications, while also dropping its deportation rate, leaving large numbers of legally illegal Afghan migrants to bum around Europe.
Approximately six months later, Abdul killed Mia, and over a year later, Jawed struck in Amsterdam.
"Terrorism has no borders," Merkel had declared after the bombing. But terrorism has borders. They're national borders.
It's Merkel's Germany that has no borders. And it's the European Union's lack of borders that allowed Jawed to stab two American tourists in Amsterdam. When your country or continent has no borders, then terrorism will strike deep in your cities with no borders to slow it down or stop the carnage.
Terrorism "targets all of us," Merkel had insisted. In "Manchester or Berlin, Paris, Istanbul, St. Petersburg or today in Kabul."
But it’s only when there’s nothing stopping Taliban fighters on their way from Kabul to Berlin, from Istanbul to Paris, or from Tripoli to Manchester, that Islamic terrorism is truly a universal threat.
Terrorism doesn’t have to be everywhere. Especially Islamic terrorism, which is not an indigenous political movement in Europe, Canada, Australia or America, but can only spread through migration. Without open borders, the infrastructure of Islamic terrorism, from immigrants, migrants and refugees, to mosques, which generate new converts, Islamic terrorism would be an issue in Kabul, not Berlin.
Merkel’s insistence on linking the bombing in Kabul to terrorism in Europe had it backward. The suspension of deportations cost countless lives, among them, likely Mia’s, and likely led to the stabbings of two Americans in Amsterdam by a refugee traveling with a Germany residency permit and hate in his heart. The flow of Muslim migrants from Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Pakistan brought terror to Europe.
When there are no borders, when deportations are a toothless affair, when the rights of migrants matter more than those of the native population, then Islamic terrorism truly has no borders.
The Amsterdam stabbings were a typical example of Merkel’s borderless terrorism.
Germany’s open borders attracted Jawed, Abdul, Hussein, Abdol and so many other asylum seekers. And then the EU’s internal open borders allowed Jawed to strike at American tourists in another European country. That’s what happens to ordinary people when terrorism has no borders.
Terrorism can have borders. All you have to do to save lives is protect those borders.

{ americanthinker.com } ~ "America is under attack. Our country is being transformed before our very eyes," ACT for America founder Brigitte Gabriel stated on September 4 in a ballroom in Crystal City at Virginia's Hyatt Regency hotel. ACT's tenth-anniversary national security conference brought together over 200 ACT activists nationwide for a clarion call of political warfare to preserve American freedoms against myriad subversive Islamist and leftist threats.
Gabriel described how, since she founded ACT in 2002, "today the national security threat is no longer confined to radical Islamic terrorism." ACT is not a one-trick pony; rather, the group must contend with numerous others like Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and MS-13 gangs. Against these criminal and totalitarian organizations, "ACT for America is today the largest grassroots national security organization in the country with one million members."
Gabriel emphasized the stark polarization between the worldviews of freedom-loving conservative groups like ACT and their opponents. "Our enemy is dedicated to destroying us," she said. "No matter what you do, they are going to call you a hater." Accordingly, she dismissed appeals that "we need to convert the unconverted" with "don't waste your time" and focused on the mobilization of committed allies.
Later in the afternoon, Zionist Organization of America national president Morton Klein echoed Gabriel's observations about leftist slanders. "Doesn't the left love to use that word, 'racist'?" he said while noting conference protesters outside. "Without that word, they would have nothing to say." By contrast, as he demonstrated with his presentation's reiteration of past arguments, ACT is among few groups that "tell the whole courageous, rational truth about the Arab-Islamic war against the West and Israel."
Following Gabriel in the speaker schedule, former Republican congressman and United States Army lieutenant colonel Allen West reflected her militant mood. He expressed anger at the necessity of the instructions given to conference attendees to avoid speaking to the media and displaying conference badges outside conference events:
West noted that some of the greatest modern threats to America's exceptional experiment in liberty come from ideological struggles in the wider culture. Thus:
The most important elected position in the United States of America, it is not president, it is not senator, it is not congressman, it is not governor – it is school board. So I want to see more ACT for America people out there running for school board.
West's remarks received elaboration from later speakers like the conservative political mobilization wunderkind Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA. Western civilization's future depends upon an "ideological, cultural battle on college and high school campuses, and we are losing horribly, terribly," he stated. He noted that 85 percent of $100 billion in the last decade's college donations came from registered Republicans, who "have funded the Marxist indoctrination camps of tomorrow." Accordingly, conservatives must implement be a "complete and total divestment from giving philanthropically to our schools."
Kirk noted radical academia's central role in the transformation of a dummycrats-Democratic Party that in generations past shared a pro-American outlook.dummycrats-Democratic leaders today are "committed anti-American Marxists that want to destroy this country." This situation demands explicit condemnation of leftists' "sick and twisted morals," therefore "don't give them the gift of saying these are good people."
Unrestricted immigration's dangers formed a key conference theme, including an entire panel with experts like the former immigration law enforcement officer Michael Cutler from the Center for Immigration Studies. He noted that America's immigration policies are a bipartisan "failure by design; they are doing exactly what the elite wants, and they go against everything that every Americans wants." Rather than being "broken," as often described, the "immigration system is the most efficient system in the entire federal government" as a system that "delivers an unlimited supply of cheap, exploitable foreign labor."
Cutler's remarks on immigration reform reflected that improved border security stanching the influx of illegal aliens into America would reduce American social welfare spending and drug crime. Therefore, "within a year or two, the wall pays for itself." Meanwhile, his fellow panelist, Numbers USA deputy director Chris Chmielenski, discussed ending "birthright citizenship," which allows illegal aliens and visitors to acquire American citizenship for children born on American soil in a "birth tourism industry."
Gabriel during her morning address worried that Muslim immigrants from the Middle East and North Africa "basically have no loyalty to our country," a theme Ryan Fournier elaborated upon during his lunch address. The Students for Trump national chairman denounced leftists as "seeing the world through a fantasy lens. Their fanatical pursuit of diversity and cultural enrichment is a threat to Western civilization." Particularly in Europe, "multiculturalism" and "open border policies have led to a wave of terror attacks," such that "left-wing politicians have blood on their hands." America should learn from Europe's negative experience that "there is a clear difference between Eastern and Western cultures, and blending the two simply does not work."
The Palestinian-American convert from Islam to Christianity Hazem Farraj confirmed in his afternoon address that "some cultures are just better than others." Living in Jerusalem's Muslim Arab community, where his conversion prompted death threats, he has "been on the other side" of Western civilization, while he has "friends who are running from the culture of Islamism." In his remarks, he contrasted the United Nations' 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights, an "almost sacred" document, with sharia oppression in the Organization of Islamic Cooperation's 1990 Cairo Declaration of Human Rights in Islam. His slides stated that globally, "Islam is the 'fastest growing religion' BECAUSE it's the most ENFORCED," while "20% of 1.6 billion Muslims are secret unbelievers."
Various anti-Western Islamic doctrines also concerned the sharia expert Stephen Coughlin, who addressed how, under President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, "Turkey is taking operational control of the Muslim Brotherhood" worldwide. Coughlin highlighted Turkey's Directorate of Religious Affairs or Diyanet, a ministry expressly instituted in Turkey's 1924 constitution that financially supports mosques all around the world. Noting the Diyanet Center of America in Lanham, Maryland, outside Washington, D.C., he stressed the political nature of such a Diyanet institution and warned to "never think about it as a mosque."
Coughlin noted the expressed hopes of Diyanet leaders to create a "counter-state" capability among Muslim communities in places like Europe. Diyanet president Ali Erbas had indicated that the Diyanet will demand from European law enforcement authorities cooperation with Diyanet-led Muslim communities, a "direct claim of jurisdiction." "If the Europeans want to push back, there will be blood in the streets," Coughlin warned.
Center for Security Policy senior fellow Deborah Weiss in turn presented her past research on Hollywood's "multiple Islamist influence operations" that seek to "dominate the information battlespace" in a "stealth or civilizational jihad." The "extremely well connected" nature of a leftist-Islamist "red-green axis" in the movie industry and beyond had raised fears that conservatives like her were fighting a losing battle. Yet she rightly rallied in an "ideological war" that "Islam might seem like Goliath, but we're David. ... Pick up the sword of truth and soldier on."

When You've Lost the San Francisco Chronicle...
That said, we turn to the editorial board of a Leftmedia bastion — the San Francisco Chronicle — for a rebuke of California dummycrats-Democrat Dianne Fein-stein’s despicably dirty play of a #MeToo dog whistle:
Sen. Dianne Fein-stein’s treatment of a more than 3-decade-old sexual assault allegation against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was unfair all around. It was unfair to Kavanaugh, unfair to his accuser and unfair to Feinstein’s colleagues — dummycrats-Democrats and Republicans alike — on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Fein-stein, a California dummycrats-Democrat, took the worst possible course by waiting until almost a week after Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing was completed to ominously announce that she had turned over “information from an individual” about Kavanaugh to the FBI, and adding that she would be honoring the woman’s “strongly requested” confidentiality.
Fein-stein has been around Washington long enough to know that her opaque statement guaranteed that the contents of the letter, sent by a Stanford law professor on behalf of the accuser, would be pursued and publicized in short order. And they were. …
In concealing the accusation she had received in July, according to reports, Fein-stein did a disservice to her Judiciary Committee colleagues, who might have wanted to determine if corroborating accounts were available, or at least question Kavanaugh about the accusation in a closed session. Instead, Fein-stein’s colleagues were left in the dark.
Sometimes the most effective rebuttal is to use the Left’s own words to expose an awful leftist scheme. However, we also must note, the Chronicle editorial is just as hard on Republicans for supposedly “obstructing”dummycrats-Democrats’ earnest vetting efforts because of their own “rush toward a confirmation vote.” The editors are, after all, in Nancy Pelosi’s backyard. And the editorial isn’t hard enough on Fein-stein for what wasn’t just the “worst possible course,” but rather a well-orchestrated obstructionist strategy formulated in June.
More hearings are scheduled for Monday, in which we’ll all hear from both the accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, and Kavanaugh himself.

{ washingtonexaminer.com } ~ President Trump and congressional leaders have agreed to a border wall funding showdown after the upcoming November midterm elections... and if he plays his cards right, it could result in $5 billion, more than twice what the White House initially sought. While appropriations bills are moving at the fastest pace in over 20 years, with many expected to be approved by Oct. 1, the start of the fiscal year, Homeland Security funding for the wall is likely to be delayed, said officials. Plans are already underway to approve temporary, “stopgap,” funding that will cover Homeland until its new spending is approved after the wall funding fight. However, in a good sign for the White House, the Senate has already locked in the $1.6 billion Trump sought this year in wall construction funding in a bipartisan vote and it will be included in the stopgap bill. The House is likely to approve $5 billion for the wall, matching Trump’s top level wish and setting up negotiations with the Senate. Threats of a shutdown over not getting full funding for the wall by Oct. 1, however, threaten to disrupt the plan agreed to at a recent White House meeting between Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and House Speaker Paul Ryan, according to a key official....

{ themadpatriots.com } ~ Last summer, Rep. Steve Scalise came within a hair’s breadth of being killed by a left-wing lunatic who, judging by his social media diet, appeared to have been radicalized online... Scalise was shot at a congressional baseball game practice, and was listed as one of several Republican targets found in the killer’s possession. The media covered this near-tragedy like it was just another bump in the road of our politics; since it was “just” Republicans in harms’ way, there was certainly no reason to give a whole lot of publicity to this shocking moment of political violence. It wasn’t like that awful time a black guy got punched at a Trump rally, after all! In any case, Scalise penned a powerful essay this week calling on leaders in Washington to tone down their rhetoric and condemn political violence in all its forms. “No Americans should feel intimidated or at risk of violence for speaking their mind, or even doing something as simple as sharing their political party affiliation,” Scalise wrote. “Let me be clear: there is absolutely no place for violence or threats in our political discourse. We need a higher level of civility in our political debate. And it starts with us.” Without naming any names, Scalise skirted right up to the edge of calling out dummycrats-Democrats like Rep. scumbag/mad-Maxine Waters, who has publicly encouraged her followers to harass Trump administration employees wherever they can be found...
{ wnd.com } ~ If midterm election polls increasingly show that dummycrats-Democrats are poised to regain control of the House, then why are liberals in panic mode? What do they know that we don’t – or that they don’t want us to?
The highly touted opinion poll analyst, FiveThirtyEight, released an election update video reporting thatdummycrats-Democrats have an 82 percent chance of winning a majority of the House in November. The narrator breathlessly reveals that this is the first time their forecast has given the dummycrats-Democrats more than an 80 percent chance of winning the House since the launch of the model.
Yet an MSNBC panel was apoplectic over President Donald Trump’s approval rating, which remained constant despite an avalanche of negative news stories concerning legal developments on Paul Manafort and Michael Cohen. Some liberals were sure those would puncture Trump’s approval rating.
On “MTP Daily,” Katy Tur seemed unhinged. “Last week was a tidal wave of bad news for this presidency and this president, and his approval rating stayed the same,” said Tur. “So I wonder – I mean, if that’s not going to move the needle, is this rino-John McCain thing going to move the needle?”
Tur continued, “And forgive me for being skeptical because I was under the impression, as was most people, that when Donald Trump came out and said he wasn’t a war hero – he likes the guys that don’t get caught – back in 2015, that people would care. And when I went out and talked to Republican voters, they didn’t care at all.”
Jonathan Alter agreed, smugly asserting, “Republicans don’t care at all,” and saying that the 43 percent who approve of Trump are “so deluded as to believe this guy is a good president.”
Alter’s revelation did not soothe the gasping Tur, who said with dismayed incredulity, “Eighty-eight percent of Republicans still support him – 88 percent. I’m sorry, I just – I start to wonder when we have these conversations and we say, ‘Well, this is going to be the breaking point,’ I wonder if there is a breaking point. I wonder if enough people in this country find the actions and the behavior repulsive enough to want to change what’s going on.”
Evidently, then, dummycrats-Democrats aren’t as complacent as the poll numbers would seem to warrant. If they were, would they be reaching new heights of hysteria in condemning Trump, as when the Washington Post editors declared him “complicit” in Hurricane Florence? Or would former President scumbag/liar-nObama have re-emerged on the public scene to refute the public perception that Trump’s booming economy trumps his perpetual malaise?
They are nervous and, like Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, need an “insurance policy” against these polls. They have to make sure that not a day goes by without their reporting on falling skies – and attributing them to Trump.
Thankfully for Trump supporters, the Trump haters still don’t get it. Obviously, they feel superior in likening Trump’s inelastic support to a perverse tribalism and cultist attachment, but it is nothing of the kind. As long as they think it is, however, they’ll keep hammering away against Trump’s character, seeking to sever that stubborn bond that is driving many of them toward mental instability.
It’s no small irony that one of the major factors driving Trump supporters’ steadfast loyalty is the arrogance and outrageousness of the left. They expect support for Trump to evaporate because he supposedly exhibits the very type of extremism and unhinged conduct they display themselves – every single day. Pot, kettle, my friends.
They might have a plausible theory if Trump’s hardcore supporters constituted a smaller fraction of Republicans, but they are literally arguing that almost all Republicans are delusional and cult-like – that they put party above the national interest.
How likely is it that 90 percent of Republicans became insane overnight? That the ever-bumbling Trump according to the liberal media narrative cast a captivating spell on them from which they can’t escape?
Nope. The truth is that Republicans are witnessing how radical the dummycrats-Democratic Party has become and that these leftist policies were greatly damaging America. With their reasoning powers fully engaged, Republicans recognize that Trump is fighting to preserve the America they love, and that on a policy level at least, he is making major strides toward reversing scumbag/liar-nObama’s destructive course. While dummycrats-Democrats plead that they want to remove Trump because of his reputedly appalling manners and values, their real motive is to oust him because he has been so effective in thwarting their America-crushing juggernaut.
We’ll never know if these mainstream liberal mavens have inside knowledge that the midterm polls are slanted, but we know for a fact that liberals are not at all sure they believe the polls. And we all know what happened in 2016.

Trump's New Executive Order Is a Positive Step for Securing Elections
by Hans von Spakovsky
This piece is coauthored by David Inserra, policy analyst at The Heritage Foundation’s Allison Center for Foreign Policy Studies, and Klon Kitchen, senior fellow for technology, national security and science policy at The Heritage Foundation.
President Donald Trump’s new executive order allowing the sanctioning of foreign individuals attempting to influence American elections is a necessary step in the right direction, but more can be done.
The Heritage Foundation consistently recommends pushing back against nation-state actors who use cyber and other means to attack American interests. This new executive order is a welcome response to these recommendations.
The executive order — which establishes an interagency process for determining if foreign influence has occurred and for sanctioning those responsible — is inherently reactionary. But it does attempt to change the calculus of hostile foreign heads of state, such as Russian President Vladimir Putin, by incrementally constraining those “foreign persons” that other governments and entities use to conduct these cyber-attacks and illicit influence operations.
Those who dismiss this executive order because it is not a “silver bullet” risk misunderstanding the challenge and the nation’s needs, as well as the diffuse nature of our country’s unique, decentralized election administration system.
There is no single action the president can take to remove the threat of foreign influence. Instead, what is needed is a coherent suite of policies that proactively deters these attacks and punishes those responsible when they occur. Such a policy cocktail will involve initiatives across all elements of national power, and this order constitutes a significant advancement toward a solution.
So yes, more remains to be done. The U.S. is waking up to the threat posed to our country from foreign influence, and Congress also will need to grapple with the best way to counter this threat and ensure the First Amendment rights of American citizens to participate in the election and political process are not infringed. More must be done to deter and punish bad actors as well as better defend the U.S. election system.
A crucial factor that agencies within the federal government must keep in mind is that under the Constitution, our election systems are the responsibility of the states. Thus, it is essential the federal government work closely with state governments as equal partners to evaluate threats to our election system and prepare and implement responses.
It is state and local election officials who have the primary authority for protecting elections, from voter registration to the casting of ballots to the counting of votes, and that includes protecting against cyber-attacks.
To the extent there are systems and protocols that cyber security experts and federal agencies can provide to state governments, such support and expertise should be provided — without imposing unfunded mandates on state and local officials or discounting their concerns, expertise, and authority.
Much can be said regarding our slowness in responding to this growing threat, but the Sept. 12 announcement from the White House was a move in the right direction.

The exploitation of the poor and their wages must stop... International Corporations must not use their wealth, power and positions, to yoke the poor with slave wages. America must not permit unrestrained trade between global corporations, who work to exploit the disparities in world markets... Wages, profits, environmental concerns, health, safety, and labor standards, must do more than simply inform our choices if we are to exist in a world economic system that is equitable toward all parties.
An equal scale and just measure... must become the standard for commercial and private exchange. No one must be permitted to engage in privileged trade, to exploit the less fortunate, by the exercise of position and power. Greed and avarice must not drive capital markets: income and one's return on investment must be earned thru innovation, the genuine product of one's labor or intellectual effort, not at the expense of others.
Capital and Labor... must each contribute to the end product and receive their reward according to their effort, not out of a leveraged position, privilege, or raw power. The concept that one should be permitted to exploit markets, because they can, must end. Ethics and moral standards for a reasonable, responsible, return on investment and wage, must replace greed and avarice. We must not muzzle the Ox nor reap where we have not sown: A day's wage for a day's labor and an equal scale and measure must become the standard for commercial and private exchange.
The idea that a little greed never hurt is an oxymoron... there is no such thing as a LITTLE greed. All forms of greed must be replaced by just transactions. equitable exchanges. Transactions where both parties are satisfied and receive an equitable measure in the exchange. The idea that one is smarter or a better trader, thus justifies the exploitation of those less fortunate, must be replaced by ethical standards for exchanges. Too, create markets where equitable exchanges will occur will require governments to restrain greed and avarice in their markets. Governments have a roll in establishing standards for education and ethics, that support the creation of moral commerce: Feudal and Socialist dogma must be replaced by a balanced approach to commercial and private markets.
The distribution of wealth... must reflect the value of one's contribution to society. Wealth must not be the product of one's position alone or created by privilege and raw power. the manipulation of the marketplace must end. Those with much must become responsible for the use of their wealth. They must not seek to disadvantage others out of greed or avarice. The accumulation of vast amounts of wealth and power must not be the primary motive behind commerce. A grander vision of the Judeo/Christian ethic must replace the worldly concepts of capitalism and socialism as they exist today. (And every variation thereof).
Godly commerce... the moral exchange of goods and services, must be guided by a just measure, an equal scale. A system of weights and measures (ethical standards) which are inculcated in our culture, thru education and the introduction of Godly commerce, must be forthcoming if we are to end the divisiveness within mankind. Wars and strife are often the product of immoral trade and economic oppression.
St. James put it this way... From whence come wars and fighting's among you? Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust , and have not: Ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts..." (James 4:1-3)
Basically, mankind struggles upon the earth seeking security in his possessions... desiring to achieve an advantage over others. Cain slew Able over such desire and its been downhill ever since. Mankind lusts and has not, he desires to have and cannot obtain, this leads to war, to the defrauding one's brother and neighbors. We must learn to overcome the darker angels of our soul, those which cause us to lust after what we have not earned. We must end our innate desire to reap where we have not sown, too deny the OX his due or the merchant his reward. We must die to self and become more like Christ.
Until we acknowledge the underlying greed... the lusts of the flesh, the struggle to have that which we cannot obtain, thru our personal labor and capital endeavors, there will be no peace in the Earth. Mankind will war against his brother and neighbor, seeking to TAKE that which is not his, out of the lust for that which others have. We must not covet that which is our neighbor's property. We must find a way to overcome greed and avarice; too, live in peace with all men, as much as possible. That way, is the way of Jesus Christ, the Word of God made flesh. If mankind will eat of His Flesh and drink of His Blood (to become as Christ), the living Word of God. Then, man becomes part of His Divine Body; free from the lust of the flesh, a new creation. .. able to live with all men in peace.
However, world peace in our time is not likely to occur... given the greed and avarice loose in this world. Today, the heart of mankind is driven by lust: Those who have not, kill but are never satisfied, because man is consumed by lust, he wants more than he can obtain. It is in this lost state that man is doomed to consume his brother and eventually all of mankind.

{ meforum.org } ~ Over the past week, violent protests have swept the southern Iraqi city of Basra. Twelve people have been killed in the protests and hundreds injured... The protests focused on the dire living conditions in the city, which is located in a province that is home to 70% of Iraq’s oil reserves. Corruption and chronic mismanagement have produced a daily reality of electricity shortages, lack of drinking water, and high unemployment. There are fears of a cholera outbreak resulting from poor sanitary conditions. Thirty thousand people have been hospitalized after drinking polluted water in recent weeks. The protests are a violent reaction to all this. No coherent demands or united leadership have yet emerged from the unrest. But the targets of the rioters do not appear to be entirely random. According to the Arabic-language Asharq al-Awsat newspaper, “Protesters set fire to the building of the neighboring provincial council and a number of party and faction headquarters, including the headquarters of the ruling Dawa Party, the Islamic Supreme Council, the Badr Organization – the largest Shi’ite armed group supported by Iran in Iraq, the headquarters of the Brigades of Imam Ali, and Asaib Ahl al-Haq, led by Qais al-Khazali, and the movement of the former deputy leader Hanan al-Fatlawi. The protesters also attacked offices of the state-run Al-Iraqiya TV and the office of the al-Furat channel of Hakam al-Hakamah, led by Ammar al-Hakim.” In addition, protesters attacked the facilities of the Kataeb Hezbollah, Khorasani, and Hezbollah al-Nujaba militias...

2008 Financial Crisis — A 10-Year Retrospective
On a walk down memory lane (or the memory hole of the Left), we see that dummycrats-Democrats seeded the financial collapse, particularly with mortgage regulations.
As Mark Alexander explained in his updated and comprehensive review of the 2008 financial crisis, “The Community Reinvestment Act was passed by dummycrats-Democrats of the 95th Congress and signed into law by Jimmy Carter in 1977. It coerced lending institutions to make loans ‘to the entire community,’ undermining means testing to qualify applicants for mortgages.” Despite some positive changes in the intervening Republican White House years, “liar-Bill Clinton’s signature on legislation making it easier for minority constituents with bad credit to obtain mortgages really reseeded the crisis. … liar-Clinton’s legislation, in effect, applied affirmative action to the lending industry, which is to say that the [crisis was] NOT a ‘free market failure’ but the result of socially engineered financial policy by the central government.”
It took time for bad subprime mortgages to create a financial sinkhole underneath major banks. That’s why the collapse didn’t happen in 1998 but during the tenure of George W. Bush a decade later. When the house of cards inevitably collapsed, the Democrat response was … more government regulation. The Dodd-Frank financial regulatory overhaul essentially codified “too big to fail” — the very thing dummycrats-Democrats routinely railed against. By 2015, scumbag/liar-nObama’s administration was working to make sure history repeated.
Fortunately, in 2016, Americans took another path. President Donald Trump has worked from Day 1 to lower taxes and deregulate the economy, and the results are impressive. That doesn’t mean we’re permanently out of the woods, or that Trump is a miracle worker. But it does mean that the right policies matter at the federal level and at your kitchen table.

The Most Dangerous and Treacherous Times in U.S. History! (Part 82)-Posted on Tea Party Command Center-By Jake Martinez-On September 8, 2018:
The following recent thought-provoking article revealed that the, on or about September 16, 2018, on the edition of “Sunday Morning Futures” hosted by Maria Bartiromo, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes told Bartiromo that he believes that President Trump “doesn’t have any choice” but to declassify documents associated with the FISA warrants obtained on Trump campaign foreign-policy advisor Dr. Carter Page over approximately a year.
It also revealed that early in his interview Nunes told Bartiromo that: “The walls are beginning to close in on the corrupt officials at the Department of Justice and the FBI,” and that “The mainstream media is not covering this…We’ve known this for a long time…We believe that the depositions that we took…need to be published…before the election…so that they can see the work that we did…I expect to make those available from our committee to the American public here in the next few weeks”-You Decide:

“Food for Thought”
Hello: Are Americans Going To Wake Up and Take a Stand Against The Deplorable Obstructionists That Are Doing Their Utmost To Take Down Our Democratically Elected President, His Administration and Ultimately Destroy our Country/Republic?-God Bless America!
dummycrats-Dems Assault the Constitution Over Kavanaugh
First, the details of Fein-stein’s #MeToo dog whistle are now known. But while the allegation of sexual assault by Kavanaugh against Ford — from 35 years ago, when they were both in high school — is serious, it’s also quite dubious.
Right from the get-go, Kavanaugh vehemently and categorically denied having engaged in any such misconduct at any time in high school or after. He was supported in his refutation by 65 women who have known Kavanaugh since high school and vouched for him being a man of high character.
Moreover, the details of the allegation appear spurious. The lone corroborative evidence offered by Ford is a 2012 couple’s counseling therapy session. However, the notes from that session do not match Ford’s current story. For example, the number of individuals involved in the alleged assault is different and Kavanaugh’s name does not appear in the session notes. Both of these discrepancies raise red flags about the credibility of the accusation.
Second, political allegiance is a huge factor that must not be overlooked. Ford is a progressive dummycrats-Democrat donor who’s literally invested in stopping any conservative judge from reaching the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, Fein-stein and her fellowdummycrats-Democrats sat on this allegation since July, not asking Kavanaugh even one question about it during the three days of hearings, nor during their closed-door questioning. In other words, there is no question that the timing is a politically calculated play by the dummycrats-Democrats.
Finally, dummycrats-Democrats’ calls to immediately halt the confirmation vote on Kavanaugh in order to investigate this allegation undermine the very spirit of the Constitution and the American judicial system. The foundational concept of “innocent until proven guilty” is what has made the U.S. justice system the envy of the world. dummycrats-Democrats are pushing the dangerously flawed concept of assuming guilt based solely on the seriousness of the accusation and then demanding that the accused prove his innocence. Make no mistake, this is an assault on the Constitution — and today is, ironically, Constitution Day.
Unfortunately, with a friendly mainstream media backing them, this dirty political play gives dummycrats-Democrats a win-win scenario. They have now effectively weaponized the #MeToo movement against Kavanaugh in an effort to dupe women voters. Should Republicans go forward with the vote without conceding to dummycrats-Democrat demands for delay and further investigation, they risk the bad publicity of “not listening” to a victim of possible sexual abuse. dummycrats-Democrats will gleefully use that against Republicans in the midterms. If, on the other hand, Republicans cave to dummycrats-Democrat demands and lend legitimacy to an almost certainly phony hit job, they fall into the trap of further drawing out the confirmation vote until possibly after the midterms, which, worst case scenario, has dummycrats- Democrats regaining majority control. And if that were to occur, what’s to stop outgoing Republicans, particularly anti-Trump squishes like rino-Jeff Flake (R-AZ) or scumbag-Bob Corker (R-TN), from stalling further or even voting against Kavanaugh?
In fact, should the confirmation vote be delayed until after the midterms, and should dummycrats-Democrats win the Senate majority, their argument will naturally be that the Kavanaugh vote must be delayed until the new Senate is seated because “the people have spoken.” That argument alone would buckle the knees of some Republicans, whose concern over getting along with the new dummycrats-Democrat Senate majority would direct their vote.
In the end, this recent play by dummycrats-Democrats has made one thing patently obvious: The Washington swamp is far from drained.
Update: It appears that Kavanaugh’s mother Martha Kavanaugh, who was a judge herself, may have ruled against Ford’s parents in a foreclosure case. This establishes a potential connection to Kavanaugh and a possible reason for bad blood.
Secondly, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) blasted Fein-stein over her withholding of Ford’s allegation of abuse from the committee for six weeks. He further noted that Fein-stein has still refused to cooperate with the committee stating, “the standard procedure for updates to any nominee’s background investigation file is to conduct separate follow-up calls with relevant parties. In this case, that would entail phone calls with at least Judge Kavanaugh and Dr. Ford. I asked Senator Fein-stein’s office yesterday to join me in scheduling these follow-ups. Thus far, they have refused. But as a necessary step in evaluating these claims, I’ll continue working to set them up.”

{ jewishworldreview.com } ~ When Rosh Hashanah ended on Tuesday evening, Jews discovered that over the holiday, the Trump administration had enacted two policies – one foreign and one domestic – that on their face, don’t appear to be connected. But actually, they stem from the same rationale. And both together and separately, these two policies give Jews much to be thankful for.
First, the administration announced it is closing the Palestine Liberation Organization’s office in Washington, DC.
US National Security Advisor John Bolton explained Monday that the administration decided to close the PLO office due to the PLO’s refusal to carry out substantive negotiations towards the achievement of a peace agreement with Israel. Then too, by working to prosecute Israeli nationals at the International Criminal Court, the PLO is violating the conditions Congress set as law for the continued operation of its Washington office.
Second, Kenneth Marcus, Assistant Secretary of Education for Civil Rights determined that from now on, the US Department of Education will use the State Department’s definition of antisemitism in adjudicating all complaints regarding alleged acts of antisemitism in US educational institutions.
The State Department’s definition of antisemitism is based on the definition drafted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. The IHRA’s working definition of antisemitism explicitly states that anti-Israel activities which among other things reject Israel’s right to exist and the Jewish people’s right to self-determination; compare contemporary policies of the State of Israel to policies of Nazi Germany; and apply a standard for judging Israel’s policies and actions that is not applied to other nations and states, are all acts of antisemitism. As such, they are prohibited under the civil rights statutes that protect Americans against discrimination based on their group identity.
The common phenomenon both policies address can be referred to as “the Palestinian exception.”
The Palestinian exception was born with the Oslo process, whose 25th anniversary was marked on September 13. Ironically, the more the process failed, the more entrenched the Palestinian exception became.
The Palestinian exception involves giving the Palestinians and their supporters a pass for actions that would otherwise be illegal, simply because they are Palestinians and pro-Palestinian activists.
For instance, the Palestinian exception has afforded the PLO and its Palestinian Authority the right to enjoy US political and financial support even as they undercut the US interest of achieving peace between the Palestinians and Israel. The Palestinians have been given a pass for rejecting Israeli peace proposals. They have been given a pass for waging an unrelenting war against Israel by cultivating, encouraging and carrying out terrorist attacks against Israel; prosecuting a political war against Israel whose goal is to delegitimize its right to exist; and disseminating and cultivating hatred of Israel and the Jewish people.
Since the dawn of the peace process, every secretary of state has at one point or another said that the PLO and PA must stop abetting terrorism and supporting terrorism.
Likewise, every secretary of state has at some point paid lip service to the notion that the PLO and the Palestinian Authority must cease indoctrinating Palestinians to hate Jews and seek Israel’s destruction.
But until President Donald Trump took office, no administration took substantive action against the PA or the PLO for their destructive, racist behavior. On the contrary, until Trump’s inauguration, three successive administrations responded to aggressive behavior by the Palestinians by expanding US financial and political support for the PLO, the PA and UNRWA. The scumbag/liar-nObama administration upgraded the diplomatic status of the PLO’s office in Washington.
As for the Palestinians’ supporters in the US, successive administrations have failed to call them to task for their ever-escalating efforts to discriminate against Israel’s supporters on campuses. This repeated failure has empowered hate groups like Students for Justice in Palestine, the Muslim Students Association, Jewish Voice for Peace and hundreds of aligned groups on college campuses to escalate their anti-Jewish activities.
Trump explained the basic rationale of his decision to defund UNRWA and slash funding to the PA and other Palestinian institutions in a conference call with Jewish leaders last week ahead of Rosh Hashanah. This rationale also holds for Trump’s decision to close the PLO’s Washington office, which Bolton announced four days after the call.
Trump explained: “I stopped massive amounts of money that we were paying to the Palestinians and the Palestinian leaders… I’d say, ‘You’ll get the money, but we’re not paying you until we make a deal. If we don’t make a deal, we’re not paying.”
Trump said that he discussed conditioning US aid to the Palestinians on Palestinian actions on behalf of peace in conversations with former US peace negotiators.
“I said to some of the past negotiators, ‘Did you ever do that before? Did you ever use the money angle?’
“They said, ‘No, sir. We thought it would be disrespectful.’
“I said, ‘I don’t think it’s disrespectful at all. I think it’s disrespectful when people don’t come to the table.’”
In other words, Trump’s policy is not to extend exceptional treatment to the Palestinians. Just as he expects allied states that the US supports to support the US, so he expects the Palestinians to act in conformance with the US interest of forging peace between them and Israel.
In this vein, it is important to note that US financial support for the Palestinians, like the US decision to allow the PLO to operate a representative office in Washington, were both initiated in 1994 on the basis of the PLO’s formal commitment to work toward peace with Israel. Over the years, as Palestinian bad faith toward Israel became inarguable, Congress passed laws conditioning continued US assistance of the Palestinians on their behavior.
Yet the three previous administrations opted to ignore the law and operate instead in conformance with the Palestinian exception that gives the PA and the PLO a pass for everything – including breaking American laws.
As for the Palestinians’ supporters on US campuses, the Palestinian exception enabled them to wage a war against American Jews on campuses the likes of which the US has arguably never seen.
Over the years, as antisemitic assaults on Jewish students expanded under the headline of pro-Palestinian activism, Jewish students and groups repeatedly sought redress and corrective action from university authorities. In the many cases where those authorities refused to intervene to protect Jewish students, the students and Jewish advocacy groups turned to the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights (OCR) for protection, but to little or no avail.
In one notable instance, in 2011 the Zionist Organization of America filed a complaint against Rutgers University for failing to protect the civil rights of Jewish students, and the Department of Education rejected their complaint by arguing that it couldn’t prove the assault in question was antisemitic.
That year, a student group named BAKA, Belief Awareness Kindness Action organized a campus event that was to be “free and open to the public.” It was titled, “Never Again for Anyone.”
The title of the event made clear that its intent was to compare Israel to Nazi Germany. That is, it was on its face designed to be an antisemitic event.
As the ZOA noted in a statement this week, “When the event organizers saw how many ‘Zionists’ (aka Jews) showed up at the event, they… selectively enforced an admission fee against students who were, or were perceived to be Jewish. Jewish students reported this outrageous and painful and hurtful antisemitic discrimination to the University, which failed to address it.”
Despite the strong evidence that BAKA held an antisemitic event and then deliberately targeted Jewish students for discriminatory treatment, the OCR closed the case claiming that it lacked evidence of discrimination. The ZOA’s appeal languished unaddressed for nearly four years.
The scumbag/liar-nObama administration’s decision to turn a blind eye to anti-Jewish discrimination undertaken in the name of the Palestinians was part of a general policy of applying the Palestinian exception to pro-Palestinian activists.
This policy was made official in 2013. As Politico reported on Tuesday, in response to pressure from Kenneth Marcus, who then served as head of the Louis Brandeis Center for Human Rights and other civil rights groups, thescumbag/liar-nObama Education Department’s OCR outlined what it believed constituted actionable discrimination against Jewish students.
The OCR drew a distinction between antisemitism and political views about Israel. It released a statement stipulating that distinction.
“OCR is careful to differentiate between harassment based on an individual’s real or perceived national origin, which is prohibited… as compared to offensive conduct based on an individual’s support for or opposition to the policies of a particular nation, which is not,” the OCR explained.
In other words, in the scumbag/liar-nObama administration’s view, while it is illegal to say that Jews are murderers and carrying out genocide, it is permissible to hold an event accusing Israel of carrying out genocide against the Palestinians and then discriminating against Jewish students who try to defend Israel from slander.
Needless to say, this position enabled antisemitic assaults against Jewish students to massively expand in recent years. “Israeli Apartheid Weeks” and BDS drives spread throughout the country – even though the basic conflation of Israel with apartheid South Africa and attempts to boycott Israel are both defined as forms of antisemitism under the IHRA definition adopted by the State Department.
Now serving as head of OCR as the Assistant Secretary of Education for Civil Rights, Marcus is ending the Palestinian exception in the US education system. Marcus announced that the OCR will use the State Department’s definition of antisemitism when considering allegations of antisemitic acts on campuses in a letter to the ZOA.
The actual purpose of Marcus’s letter was to inform the organization that the OCR is considering the ZOA’s four-year-old appeal of the OCR’s decision not to take action against Rutgers for its refusal to protect Jewish students from discrimination.
Trump’s opponents insist that ending the Palestinian exception in relation to the PLO diminishes the already miniscule hope of reaching an accord between Israel and the PLO. Former peace negotiator Aaron David Miller excoriated the Trump administration’s policy in a column in USA Today on Wednesday.
Anti-Israel and far left groups like Students for Justice in Palestine and the American Civil Liberties Union argue that Marcus’s policy harms the free speech rights of pro-Palestinian groups.
These criticisms are disingenuous.
The only way that peace will ever be achieved is if the Palestinians stop their efforts to destroy Israel and embrace the cause of peace – either with the PLO or without it.
Discrimination and bigotry are not free speech issues. Allowing pro-Palestinian groups to intimidate Jewish students into silence is not about guaranteeing free speech, it is about blocking free speech and trampling the civil rights of Jews.
The Palestinian exception has made peace less likely and it has made antisemitism the only form of bigotry permitted – indeed supported – by US universities today.
The Trump administration should be thanked, not attacked, for finally discarding it.

So, Christine Ford, is a professor at Palo Alto University, and a registered democrat who federal campaign finance records show made donations earmarked for Bernie Sanders, the Democratic National Committee and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and been a part of anti-Trump movements,(*!). has come forward as the anonymous source behind the Diane Feinstein letter regarding the supposed sexual misconduct of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
I hardly know where to begin, but I suppose it would be best to take it from the top.
Feinstein claims to have had in her possession, since July, a letter sent to her by this woman, Ford, in which Ford makes the claim that as a teen, Kavanaugh attacked her sexually some 35 years ago.
Feinstein did nothing with that letter until September 12th, just days ahead of a vote by the Senate Judiciary Committee on Kavanaugh, and while that in and of itself is disturbing, more disturbing still is the fact that this woman, Ford, has kept abjectly silent about the alleged attack…for 35 years.
According to Ford, it all happened on a summer day in the 1980s at a Maryland house where teens had gathered.
Which year in the 1980’s?

{ wnd.com } ~ Our diversity is our greatest strength.
After playing clips of dummycrats-Democratic politicians reciting that truth of modern liberalism, Tucker Carlson asked, “How, precisely, is diversity our strength? Since you’ve made this our new national motto, please be specific.”
Reaction to Carlson’s question, with some declaring him a racist for having raised it, suggests that what we are dealing with here is not a demonstrable truth but a creed not subject to debate.
Yet the question remains valid: Where is the scientific, historic or empirical evidence that the greater the racial, ethnic, cultural and religious diversity of a nation, the stronger it becomes?
From recent decades, it seems more true to say the reverse: The more diverse a nation, the greater the danger of its disintegration.
Ethnic diversity, after all, tore apart our mighty Cold War rival, splintering the Soviet Union into 15 nations, three of which – Moldova, Ukraine, Georgia – have since split further along ethnic lines.
Russia had to fight two wars to hold onto Chechnya and prevent the diverse peoples of the North Caucasus from splitting off on ethnic grounds, as Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan had done.
Ethnic diversity then shattered Yugoslavia into seven separate nations.
And even as we proclaim diversity to be our greatest strength, nations everywhere are recoiling from it.
The rise of populism and nationalism across Europe is a reaction to the new diversity represented by the Arab, Asian and African millions who have lately come, and the tens of millions desperate to enter.
Center-left and center-right parties are losing ground in European elections because they are seen as feckless in meeting what more and more indigenous Europeans believe to be an existential threat – mass migration from across the Med.
Japan’s population has ceased to grow, and each year brings fewer toddlers into its schools. Yet Tokyo resists the racial and ethnic diversity greater immigration would bring. Why, if diversity is a strength?
What South Koreans dream of is uniting again with the 22 million separated members of their national family who live in the North, but share the same history and blood.
This summer, in its Basic Law, Israel declared itself an ethnonational state and national home of the Jewish people. African migrants crossing the Sinai to seek sanctuary in Israel are unwelcome.
Consider China, which seeks this century to surpass America as the first power on earth. Does Xi Jinping welcome a greater racial, ethnic and cultural diversity within his county as, say, Barack scumbag/liar-nObama does in ours?
In his western province of Xinjiang, Xi has set up an archipelago of detention camps. Purpose: Re-educate his country’s Uighurs and Kazakhs by purging them of their religious and tribal identities, and making them and their children more like Han Chinese in allegiance to the Communist Party and Chinese nation.
Xi fears that the 10 million Uighurs of Xinjiang, as an ethnic and religious minority, predominantly Muslim, wish to break away and establish an East Turkestan, a nation of their own, out of China. And he is correct.
What China is doing is brutalitarian. But what China is saying with its ruthless policy is that diversity – religious, racial, cultural – can break us apart as it did the USSR. And we are not going to let that happen.
Do the Buddhists of Myanmar cherish the religious diversity that the Muslim Rohingya of Rakhine State bring to their country?
America has always been more than an idea, an ideology or a propositional nation. It is a country that belongs to a separate and identifiable people with its own history, heroes, holidays, symbols, songs, myths, mores – its own culture.
Again, where is the evidence that the more Americans who can trace their roots to the Third World, and not to Europe, the stronger we will be?
Is the Britain of Theresa May, with its new racial, religious and ethnic diversity, a stronger nation than was the U.K. of Lloyd George, which ruled a fourth of mankind in 1920?
Was it not the unity Bismarck forged among the diverse Germanic peoples, bringing them into a single nation under the Kaiser in 1871, that made Germany a far stronger and more formidable power in Europe?
Empires, confederations and alliances are multi-ethnic and multicultural. And, inevitably, their diversity pulls them apart.
The British Empire was the greatest in modern history. What tore it apart? Tribalism, the demands of diverse peoples, rooted in blood and soil, to be rid of foreign rule and to have their own place in the sun.
And who are loudest in preaching that our diversity is our strength?
Are they not the same people who told us that democracy was the destiny of all mankind and that, as the world’s “exceptional nation,” we must seize the opportunity of our global pre-eminence to impose its blessings on the less enlightened tribes of the Middle East and Hindu Kush?
If the establishment is proven wrong about greater diversity bringing greater strength to America, there will be no do-over for the USA.

{ townhall.com } ~ They don't teach history, at least American history, like they did when I attended public school. That's why the recent hearings on Judge Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to become an associate justice on the U.S. Supreme Court served as a teachable moment.
Repeatedly, Kavanaugh referenced the Federalist Papers, which were essays by the founders that expanded on the legal and moral "mortar" they were using to secure the foundation of the new nation they were creating.
In a speech last Friday to University of Illinois students, former President scumbag/liar-nObama seemed to suggest that many people no longer trust their government. That view has been confirmed in several polls, most notably a 2010 Pew Research Center poll that found "Nearly 80 percent of Americans say they can't trust Washington and they have little faith that the massive federal bureaucracy can solve the nation's ills." The poll found public confidence in the federal government had sunk to one of its lowest levels in 50 years.
That may be because the federal government is doing things the founders never intended for it to do and instead of putting itself back within the constitutional boundaries established for it, too many politicians claim government should get even bigger and do more.
We can't say we weren't warned of the consequences of a government that grows too big and costs too much, robbing its citizens of liberty and personal responsibility and increasing our reliance on other countries to lend us money, driving the national debt ever higher.
James Madison, writing in Federalist 14 in 1787, said, "The general government is not to be charged with the whole power of making and administering laws: its jurisdiction is limited to certain enumerated objects, which concern all members of the republic, but which are not attained by the separate provisions of any."
Who doubts those constraints on government power and reach were long ago discarded in favor of a government that ascribes increasing amounts of power and authority to itself and when it fails to perform acquires even more, contributing to its cost and dysfunction?
In Federalist 48 Madison wrote, "It will not be denied that power is of an encroaching nature and that it ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it."
Today there are few limits and politicians are mostly fine with that because government has become an extension of their careers with accompanying benefits unavailable to most Americans. Perhaps if those benefits were reduced, many politicians who stay for decades would term limit themselves in accordance with the wishes of the founders, as George Washington did when he set the example by voluntarily leaving the presidency after two terms.
Writing his opinion on the constitutionality of a National Bank in 1791, Thomas Jefferson stressed what he and the other founders intended concerning the role of the federal government, which became the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution: "I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that 'all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states or to the people.' To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition."
Finally, there is this truism from Jefferson: "I own I am not a friend to a very energetic government. It is always oppressive."
Brett Kavanaugh gave us a history lesson. It would do the country a great benefit to learn that history and to embrace it in our schools and especially in our government, asking our fellow citizens to do more for themselves and to expect less from their government.

{ theconservativetreehouse.com } ~ Representative John Ratcliffe appears with Maria Bartiromo to discuss Hurricane Florence response and his knowledge of details... from congressional investigation of the FBI and DOJ. This interview is important from the perspective of understanding the position of congress in the last few weeks leading up to the election. Congress is attempting to provide information while the executive branch leadership in the DOJ and FBI do nothing to help inform the American electorate or the president. Really, quite stunning.
by Judge Andrew Napolitano
{ townhall.com } ~ Last week, The New York Times published a scathing critique of Donald Trump -- the man and the president. The Times said the critique was written by a senior Trump administration official who insisted on remaining unnamed. This bitter and harsh editorial, which portrays the president as dangerous to the health of the republic and his White House as slouching toward dysfunctionality, has understandably infuriated him.
Trump first accused the Times and its unnamed writer of treason, and then he publicly asked for a Department of Justice investigation to find the writer. Then, to change the subject, he threatened to declassify documents submitted to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court in 2016 -- before he was president -- that he believes were used to commence the dirty cop-Robert Mueller-led investigation of his presidential campaign.
I am deeply disappointed that the president uttered the word "treason." This is wrong under the law and a dangerous charge to make. The Times op-ed is protected political speech and personal opinion. Treason is the only crime defined in the Constitution, thereby preventing Congress and the courts from changing its meaning. It consists only of either waging war against the United States or any of the states or providing aid and comfort to those who are waging such a war.
The president should know that it is nearly impossible to commit treason by expressing an opinion. Even calling for a Nazi victory over the U.S. during World War II -- as hateful and harmful as such speech was -- constituted protected speech and was hardly treasonous.
Preventing a repeat of the long, sordid, barbaric history of treason prosecutions by British monarchs for the expressions of political, personal or trivial opinions about the Crown or the government Henry VIII once ordered that it was treasonous to make eye contact with him in public, absent his overt invitation is the basis for its strict constitutional definition.
The DOJ investigates criminal acts, not workplace disputes or government leaks of unclassified materials. Had the unnamed Times writer revealed classified materials, there would be a basis for a DOJ investigation, but the president's torment cannot form the basis for one. However, that does not bar the president's lawyers from conducting their own investigation, as the president is surely entitled to senior administration officials who share his goals, confidence and secrets.
The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act needs more than exposure; it needs extinction. I have been arguing for 40 years that FISA is unconstitutional. The Fourth Amendment protects the privacy of everyone in the U.S., and it establishes firmly that personal privacy may be pierced by the government only when it has demonstrated to a judge the existence of probable cause of a crime.
Probable cause requires a demonstration under oath that piercing the privacy of a target would more likely than not produce evidence of a crime. And the search warrants signed by judges must "particularly describe the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
FISA established a lesser standard for piercing personal privacy -- probable cause of communicating with a foreign person originally an agent of a foreign government, now just any foreign person. That standard -- though unconstitutional -- is obviously easier to achieve than probable cause of a crime.
As well, FISA warrants, many of which permit the bearer to look at and seize vast data, unleash the bearer without particularly describing the places to be searched or the persons or things to be seized. One FISA warrant I saw authorized telephone surveillance of all Verizon customers -- all 115 million of them -- without naming any.
FISA is not only unconstitutional because of its defiance of the Fourth Amendment but also extraconstitutional, because it sets up governmental procedures and even a government court that operate outside the Constitution.
Because it is so much easier to get a FISA search warrant than it is to get a search warrant based on probable cause, many FBI agents cannot resist the temptation to portray their mission as an intelligence one rather than a law enforcement one and get a warrant from the FISA court instead of one from a federal court that follows the Fourth Amendment.
FISA court records are so secret that the judges on the court cannot access them. The judges surrender their mobile phones and all writing materials when they enter their courthouse in D.C. and are frisked when they leave. No transcripts of courtroom dialogue are kept.
I have criticized FISA court judges by characterizing them as clerks. Indeed, any court that grants 99.97 percent of warrant applications, that does not require probable cause of criminal activity as a basis for a warrant and that does not comply with the specificity requirements of the Fourth Amendment is not a court of thinking, liberty-protecting judges faithful to the Constitution. It is a gaggle of clerks.
Much of what the FISA court sees is raw intelligence -- transcripts of conversations and personal data such as health, legal and financial records intercepted by intelligence agents. In some cases, the court sees boring nonsense. In some cases, it sees data that agents have risked their lives to obtain.
The president needs to know that the revelation of raw intelligence data -- which would be portrayed in the media as being revealed for personal or political gain -- would strike at the heart of the work of some in the intelligence community and that they might strike back.
The president also needs to be reminded of his oath to uphold the Constitution -- which includes the rule of law. The United States is the freest and most prosperous country in history. But without the rule of law and its respect for constitutional fidelity, personal liberty, private property and legal norms, the U.S. would be just a beautiful piece of real estate.
{ americanthinker.com } ~ On April 22, national security adviser John Bolton said, "It's Open Season for Foreign Influence Operations... It's not just Vladimir Putin's Kremlin that is trying to influence our elections. So are communist China and sharia-supremacist Iran." Vitriolic hatred of President Trump has sprung America into an Afghanistan-like "state of collapse, civil conflict, ethnic and disintegration locked in a self-perpetuating cycle that may be simply beyond outside resolution." An example is California versus America over energy. California has chosen 100% renewable energy by 2045 when it's proven that renewable energy doesn't work on a scalable, affordable basis now or in the coming decades without immense fossil fuel backup and billions in taxpayer subsidies. Thankfully, the United States embraced fracking, allowing the U.S. to overtake Russia and Saudi Arabia as the world's number-one oil producer. Meanwhile, California dooms its economy to poverty for its citizens with higher energy prices and depressed job growth. This example illustrates that America's democratic process is under attack, but it's against each other and not from foreign interference. Why? Because if the dummycrats-Democrats take Congress, they will impeach President Trump and don't have a plan to actually govern. This is now Venezuelan-style socialism that only wants power. These people – mostly unserious dummycrats-Democrats – "are vile, disgusting people. There is no lie they won't tell, no person they won't smear to advance their agenda," as evidenced by the Judge Brett Kavanaugh hearings....
{ wnd.com } ~ When asked by TMZ on Sunday whether a Broadway musical was an appropriate venue in which to express pro-Trump sentiments, legendary Broadway actress Carole Cook came up with a decidedly inappropriate – and very illustrative – answer. TMZ’s question was a follow-up to one they’d asked Cook referencing an earlier incident in which Broadway actor Timothy Hughes snatched a pro-Trump flag from an audience member.
“My answer to that is, where’s John Wilkes Booth when you need him?” Cook said.
John Wilkes Booth, of course, is the actor who assassinated President Abraham Lincoln.
I’ve discussed the double standard that exists among those on the political left with regard to incendiary and uncouth rhetoric in painstaking detail in this space, as well as the unvarnished antipathy they hold for President Donald Trump. Several prominent leftists have intimated if not stated outright that we’d all be better off if someone killed President Trump.
This tends to puzzle as well as outrage those who hold the office of the president or President Trump himself in high regard, if for no other reason that it is generally understood that publicly advocating violence against a chief executive can be dangerous business.
In 2012, conservative activist and rock musician Ted Nugent wound up in hot water after saying “if Barack scumbag/liar-nObama becomes the president in November, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year.” This was certainly not a direct threat against then-President scumbag/liar-nObama, but it earned Nugent an interview from the Secret Service nonetheless.
During scumbag/liar-nObama’s presidency, it was also generally understood that the president and his administration had notably thin skin with regard to public criticism. In the wake of illegal surveillance, the furloughing of top military brass, shakeups in the intelligence community and the mysterious deaths of a few ofscumbag/liar-nObama’s political opponents that occurred during this period, many scumbag/liar-nObama detractors were more than a little guarded with their speech.
This has certainly been far from the case regarding Trump’s detractors; in fact, I have personally lost count of those across the continuum of influence on the left who have voiced their wishes that some harm should come to the man.
In addition to the unrestrained hatred the left has chosen to express toward Donald Trump, their widespread support for socialism also appears to know no bounds.
The dummycrats-Democratic Socialists of America, a group that boasts New York dummycrats-Democratic congressional candidate commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a member, has advocated for the end of capitalism and the collective ownership of property. commie-Ocasio-Cortez has in turn advocated for many hard-line items on the socialist platform since becoming a darling of the establishment press.
In recent months, comedic actor scumbag-Jim Carrey has found a new calling as an anti-Trump bomb-thrower and frustrated cartoonist. Last Friday on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” show, Carrey urged dummycrats-Democrats to “say yes to socialism,” whatever that means. “We have to say yes to socialism – to the word and everything,” scumbag-Carrey said. “We have to stop apologizing.”
Like we’ve seen anyone on the left apologizing for their newfound enthusiasm for socialism lately …
Now, scumbag-Carrey – who is one of the wealthiest actors in the business – has obviously been ensconced in his rarefied Hollywood bubble for so long that he cannot relate to mainstream Americans in any manner. In addition to his overt hypocrisy, he evidences no grasp of the mindset or worldview of most Americans at present, as well as being abysmally ignorant of what socialism actually represents. It may seem incredulous that someone so successful would become so obsessed with remaining relevant that he’d take such a tack, but this may well be the case.
Very few of the prominent celebrities actors, rock stars, professional athletes whose careers suffered as a result of their having jumped on the anti-Trump bandwagon seemed to have a care for how their deportment might impact their livelihoods, or they were simply too intellectually indolent to consider the question. When comedienne lowlife-Kathy Griffin repeatedly attacked Trump and her career tanked, she simply blamed the evil Trump political machine for targeting her.
All of which speaks to a curious reckless disregard on the part of those on the left concerning what they say, even if it carries the potential to put their careers, or themselves personally, at risk. It has become quite clear since November 2016 that those on the left – from power players in Congress, to prominent activists, to bubble-headed entertainers – are desperately afraid of what Trump’s election potentially represents in the long term.
As reported in various media, former Presidentscumbag/liar-nObama recently hit the campaign trail ahead of the upcoming midterm election. His anti-Trump oratory is slightly more reserved than that of many on the left, but it remains replete with such absurd assertions as Trump being in no way responsible for the rebound of our economy, that in fact it is he who catalyzed the phenomenon and Trump is simply trying to take credit. Such forays into narcissistic indulgence are not only pathetic on scumbag/liar-nObama’s part, but they reveal how far the fear and desperation has permeated those at the top of this fetid political heap.
Coming back to reality, there remains the fact that a majority of Americans still roundly support most of President Trump’s policies, and that they intend to resist socialistic encroachment. As far as the left’s runaway hyperbole goes, there are many observers and pundits now opining that this is likely to do their cause far more damage than good in the midterm election.

{ heritageaction.com } ~ Today the House will vote on a conference report on a minibus that includes Energy-Water, Military Construction-VA, and Legislative Branch spending measures... According to news reports, House and Senate party leaders have also struck a deal on a Defense and Labor-HHS-Education conference report which will include a continuing resolution funding the rest of the government through December 7th. Heritage Action released the following statement from Executive Director Tim Chapman: It is disappointing to see conservative priorities shut out of the appropriations process yet again. The appropriations bills, including those in today’s minibus, lack conservative policy riders and any level of fiscal restraint requested by the Trump administration. While the process was arguably better this year, the results were not. The appropriations process continues to be bogged down in dysfunction as defense funding is held hostage by dummycrats-Democrat spending priorities. This December, Republicans must find a way to marry improved process with conservative policy that voters elected them and President Trump to accomplish.

{ jewishworldreview.com } ~ When Barack scumbag/liar-nObama took the oath of office as president in 2009, George W. Bush wished him well and left the political stage, determined to never publicly criticize his successor.
It is a vow he kept for the entire eight years ofscumbag/liar-nObama's presidency. Indeed, Bush has given only one political speech since leaving office -- and that was for his brother Jeb in 2016.
Even when scumbag/liar-nObama attacked him repeatedly from the presidential bully pulpit and reversed many of his policies, Bush kept silent. "I don't think it's good for the country to have a former president undermine a current president," he said. "I want the president to succeed. ... He deserves my silence."
Bush did it not simply as a courtesy. He understood better than almost anyone the incredible pressures of the presidency and felt it was his moral duty not to make the job any harder. So, he adhered to the standard of grace and decency to which all former presidents should aspire.
For a while it seemed that scumbag/liar-nObama -- the beneficiary of Bush's grace and decency -- would follow the 43rd president's example. But a little more than 18 months after leaving office, scumbag/liar-nObama has apparently decided that he is too important to stay on the sidelines.
scumbag/liar-nObama broke his silence in a speech to students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he declared that he had fully intended "on following a wise American tradition of ex-presidents gracefully exiting the political stage" but changed his mind because "this is one of those pivotal moments when every one of us as citizens of the United States need to determine just who it is that we are."
(With all due respect, this is exactly how many conservatives felt about his time in office).
Rather than maintain even some semblance of presidential dignity -- rallying dummycrats-Democrats around a set of principles without attacking the sitting president --scumbag/liar-nObama launched into an unrestrained, full-frontal assault on his successor. President Trump,scumbag/liar-nObama warned, is a "threat to our democracy" who rose to power by "tapping into America's dark history of racial and ethnic and religious division."
The former president castigated not just Trump but all Republicans. "The politics of division and resentment and paranoia has unfortunately found a home in the Republican party," he declared. Republicans are "subsidizing corporate polluters," "weakening worker protections," "shrinking the safety net," "attack[ing] voting rights" and "cozying up to Russia" -- all while campaigning on an "appeal to racial nationalism that's barely veiled."
It was the most hyperpartisan speech delivered by a former president in modern memory. If scumbag/liar-nObama were really concerned that Trump is behaving in a manner beneath the dignity of his office, then the answer is to set a better example for presidential behavior -- not join him.
Moreover, scumbag/liar-nObama's charge that racist dog whistles put Trump in the White House is a calumny against the millions of decent, patriotic Americans who voted for the president.
If all these Trump voters are driven by racism, asscumbag/liar-nObama declares, then why did so many of them vote for scumbag/liar-nObama? The American National Election Study found that 13 percent of Trump voters in 2016 backed scumbag/liar-nObama in 2012. A Post analysis after the 2016 election found that, of the nearly 700 counties that twice voted for scumbag/liar-nObama, one-third went for Trump.
These scumbag/liar-nObama-Trump voters are not racists. They are largely working-class voters -- both white and minority -- who are struggling with factories closing, jobs leaving and an opioid epidemic that is destroying their families and communities. They bought into scumbag/liar-nObama's promise of hope and change but never got what they were promised -- so they decided to give Trump a chance.
And their bet has paid off. Under Trump, the economy is finally improving for many of these forgotten Americans. Wages are rising at the fastest pace in nine years. Consumer confidence is at the highest level since 2000. Manufacturing jobs are growing at the fastest pace in 14 years.
Job layoffs are at a half-century low. Since Trump took office, the number of Americans working part-time because they could not find full-time work has dropped by nearly 700,000, and the number of Americans working full-time jobs has increased by 3 million.
And what is scumbag/liar-nObama's message? "When you hear how great the economy is doing right now,"scumbag/liar-nObama said, "let's just remember when this recovery started." Ironically, that was precisely the message that drove scumbag/liar-nObama voters to Trump in 2016.
Polls show that in 2016, half of scumbag/liar-nObama-Trump voters said their incomes were falling behind the cost of living, while another 31 percent said their incomes were merely keeping pace.
Yet during the election, they kept hearing from dummycrats-Democrats how well the economy was doing and that they should be grateful for eight years ofscumbag/liar-nObama. Well, now their lives are finally improving -- and they are grateful to Trump.
dummycrats-Democrats like to talk about all the hallowed presidential norms that Trump is breaking. But now it isscumbag/liar-nObama who is breaking presidential norms with his self-serving foray into partisan demagoguery.
Here we go again. The same routine being played out for the thousandth time. But no one is dumb enough to buy into this routine any longer, - except, to use Obama's own words - the "weak minded" voter who they constantly barrage with this garbage.
But that raises the question, are there that many weak-minded voters in America?
Rush Limbaugh mentioned "duckduckgo", an alternative to Google, as a search engine that does not track you and probably, does not re sequence search results. I'm still looking for an alternative to Twitter
