{ noisyroom.net } ~ I consider DSAer Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York to be extremely dangerous to the freedoms of this country... dummycrats-Democratic Socialists of America have seen a number of wins this year by getting members elected to office, but hers will be the biggest win so far and it foreshadows a new wave of young, millennial communist dummycrats- Democrats who will follow in her wake across the nation. Membership for DSA is exploding across the nation suddenly as millennials rush to imitate their new idol. Clueless, useful idiots on the run. She’s a commie-Bernie Sanders acolyte and young voters are flocking to her. She ran on a platform that promises the abolishment of ICE and the nationalization of healthcare using a single-payer system. She promises to impeach President Trump as well. Other planks include Medicare for all, a universal jobs guarantee, no tuition for education at schools or universities, paid family and sick leave, housing as a human right, ending the war on drugs, demilitarization of the police, doing away with prisons, open borders and decriminalization for illegal aliens, an infrastructure overhaul using green energy, ending corporate donations in politics and a peaceful economy by force if necessary. She beat Crowley, the fourth-ranking dummycrats-Democrat in the House, by 15 points in a New York City district that covers the Bronx and part of Queens. It was a massive shock to not only the nation, but the dummycrats-Democrats themselves. Wake up and smell the communism guys...   http://noisyroom.net/blog/2018/07/03/democratic-socialists-of-america-leaders-rush-to-endorse-communism-and-violence/

{ lifezette.com } ~ dummycrats-Democrats “have all this blood on their hands” because they “completely destroyed the FBI and DOJ”... by digging up dirt on President Donald Trump in 2016 Democratic presidential nominee liar-Hillary Clinton’s favor, House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) said Monday on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.” “They’re the ones that have all this blood on their hands. They’re the ones who completely destroyed the FBI and DOJ,” Nunes insisted. “How did they do that? They did that by digging up dirt — the liar-Clinton campaign dug up dirt, put it into a dossier, fed it into the FBI. The FBI used our counterintelligence capabilities against a political campaign. That’s what happened here.” Nunes was responding to accusations Rep. scumbag-Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the ranking dummycrats- Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, leveled against him and other GOP House committee members during an interview on CNN’s “Wolf” last week. scumbag- Schiff called Nunes, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) and Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) “the four horsemen of this apocalypse” who “have been leading the charge basically to require the Justice Department to give them materials that can be leaked or fed or misrepresented.” Meadows is chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, which Jordan founded, while Gowdy is chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform...

{ foxnews.com } ~ Imran Awan, the former IT aide to congressional dummycrats- Democrats whose federal court case has drawn the interest of President Trump and other Republicans... pleaded guilty Tuesday to federal bank fraud in a plea deal where prosecutors said they "uncovered no evidence" that Awan "violated federal law with respect to the House computer systems." During a hearing before U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan in Washington, Awan pleaded guilty to making a false statement on a loan application. As part of the deal, the prosecution dropped fraud charges against Awan's wife, Hina Alvi. The case has generated interest from Republicans on Capitol Hill, who have suggested Awan could have been involved in a cyber breach operation. But prosecutors said Tuesday they investigated allegations of misconduct by Awan while on the job in Congress and determined federal charges were not warranted...

{ washingtonexaminer.com } ~ Peter Strzok, the FBI counterintelligence agent who said “we’ll stop” then-candidate Donald Trump from becoming president... has been subpoenaed to openly testify before the House Judiciary and Oversight Committees on July 10 — after his lawyer recently said the date would not work. The House Judiciary Committee said it subpoenaed Strzok on Tuesday to testify publicly next Wednesday morning as part of the panels' joint investigation into the Justice Department and FBI’s actions during the 2016 presidential election.

{ hotair.com } ~ The Daily Caller has another development in the Imran Awan story... Last fall the  dummycrats-DC reported that when police requested a copy of a dummycrats-Democratic caucus server run by Awan, they were provided with a fake. Today, the dummycrats-DC reports on the contents of a memo from Sergeant-at-Arms Paul Irving describing the fake server and the disappearance of the real server. A secret memo marked “URGENT” detailed how the House dummycrats-Democratic Caucus’s server went “missing” soon after it became evidence in a cybersecurity probe. The secret memo also said more than “40 House offices may have been victims of IT security violations.”… Rep. Louie Gohmert a Texas Republican on the House Committee on the Judiciary who has done oversight work on the case — said the missing server contained copies of Congress members’ emails.  “They put 40 members of Congress’s data on one server … That server, with that serial number, has disappeared,” he said...

The Liberal Stampede to 'Abolish ICE'

by Patrick J. Buchanan 

{ cnsnews.com } ~ "No Borders! No Nations! No Deportations!" "Abolish ICE!"

Before last week, these were the mindless slogans of an infantile left, seen on signs at rallies to abolish ICE, the agency that arrests and deports criminal aliens who have no right to be in our country.

By last week, however, "Abolish ICE!" was no longer the exclusive slogan of the unhinged left. National dummycrats-Democrats were signing on.

Before his defeat in New York's 14th Congressional District, Joe Crowley, fourth-ranked dummycrats-Democrat in the House, called ICE a "fascist" organization.

After Crowley's rout by a 28-year-old socialist who called for killing the agency, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., declared ICE to be "a cruel deportation force that we need to abolish."

Cynthia Nixon, a candidate for governor of New York, described ICE as a "terrorist organization ... terrorizing people who are coming to this country. ... We need to abolish ICE."

A star of "Sex and the City" castigated the men and women of ICE as terrorists at St. Paul and St. Andrew United Methodist Church in Manhattan. One wonders what the pastor thought of this Christian message.

Friday, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio joined the clamor: "We should abolish ICE." Over the weekend, Sen. Elizabeth dinky-Warren, D-Mass., signed on:

"President Trump seems to think that the only way to have immigration rule is to rip parents from their family and treat rape victims and refugees like terrorists and to put children in cages."

What ICE does is "ugly" and "wrong," said Warren.

"We need to rebuild our immigration system from top to bottom starting by replacing ICE with something that reflects our morality."

Wisconsin dummycrats-Democratic Congressman Mark Pocan plans to introduce legislation to do exactly that — abolish ICE.

President Donald Trump describes this latest liberal campaign as social and political insanity: "You get rid of ICE you're going to have a country that you're going to be afraid to walk out of your house."

What is going on here?

dummycrats-Democrats, having just gone through the worst week in memory for progressives, are in imminent danger of losing it altogether.

Last week, the Supreme Court ruled that not only is the Trump travel ban constitutional, government unions have no right to extract "agency fees" from workers who do not wish to support the union.

Such fees violate the First Amendment rights of government workers not to promote policies or ideas in which they disbelieve.

Then came word that Justice Anthony Kennedy, the "swing vote" on the Supreme Court who was crucial to the decisions that established abortion, homosexuality and same-sex marriage as constitutional rights, will be stepping down

And Trump informed the press that he would announce Kennedy's successor on July 9, to be drawn from a list of 20 jurists and legal scholars, all of whom have been vetted by the Federalist Society.

Panic ensued.

"I'm scared. You're scared. We're all scared," says dinky-Warren in a video her campaign has released.

On Bill Maher's show, leftist film director Michael Moore called for a million citizens to surround the Capitol to prevent a vote on Kennedy's successor. How Moore's million-man march proposes to get into Mitch McConnell's Senate chamber was left unexplained.

At a fundraiser in Berkeley, California, Barack liar-nObama tried to calm his terrified minions: "All these people that are out here kvetching and wringing their hands and stressed and anxious and constantly watching cable tv and howling at the moon, 'What are we going to do?' Their hair is falling out."

But liberal elites making fools of themselves is a less serious matter than the savage slanders dummycrats-Democrats are hurling at the 20,000 men and women of ICE who are daily protecting us and our country.

ICE, after all, was established to prevent another 9/11, when real terrorists, some of whom had overstayed their visas, massacred 3,000 innocent people, most of them Americans.

This vilification of ICE, writes Deputy Director Thomas D. Homan, represents both an injustice and an act of ingratitude:

"Since September 2016, ICE has arrested nearly 5,000 criminal aliens in New York — individuals with a criminal conviction in addition to their violation of immigrant laws. Many of these arrests were conducted at large in the community which ICE is increasingly forced to do due to sanctuary policies in the state that prevent us from taking custody of criminal aliens in the secure confines of a jail.

"Governor Andrew Cuomo supports these policies at the expense of the safety of the very same communities he took an oath to protect."

Whatever one may think of Trump's policy of "zero tolerance" of immigrants who break into our country, for elites to smear the 20,000 men and women who risk their lives to keep us safe, as "terrorists" and "fascists," is an especially egregious form of liberal ingratitude.

What is it in the DNA of the left that it is always ready to enlist in any new war on cops?

The issue of 2018: Should we, or should we not, abolish ICE and embrace the progressive alternative of open borders?

Illegal Invasion Rates Plummeted 
with Trump Zero Tolerance Border Policy
{ rickwells.us} ~ Illegal immigration on the southwest border appears to have dropped in June, according to new numbers reported Monday... signaling President Trump’s zero-tolerance policy may have been successful in changing the calculations for would-be invaders. The Associated Press reported that the Border Patrol arrested 34,057 immigrants who illegally crossed the border last month, down from 40,344 people in May. The numbers, which came from an unnamed government official, are still preliminary, the AP reported. But if they hold, it would be the biggest drop since the first couple of months of Mr. Trump’s tenure, when analysts say the mere fact of his election forced immigrants to change their minds about coming to the U.S. Officials had hinted at the improved numbers in recent weeks, but have held off on commenting publicly until the data is finalized. Mr. Trump’s zero-tolerance policy was announced in early May and began to take effect throughout the month. The goal was to change migrants’ incentives and perhaps dissuade some from making the trip...  https://rickwells.us/illegal-invasion-border-zero/

Left Starting to Eat its Own? dummycrats-Dem 
Accuses Pulosi, clown-Schumer of Racism

by Selwyn Duke
{ thenewamerican.com } ~ House Minority Leader Nancy Pulosi (D-Calif.) and Senator Chuck clown-Schumer (D-N.Y.), devoted liberals both, are “racist.”... That’s according to leftist CNN political commentator Angela Rye (D-Media), shown, who condemned the two gerontocrats for criticizing scumbag/mad-Maxine Waters’ (D-Calif.) call for the harassment of Trump officials. It’s reflective of the rise of a more radical “new Left,” which threatens both the old guard’s power and our nation itself. The new Left is just like the old Left — only more so. It’s epitomized by Tuesday’s upset victory in New York’s 14th district, where 28-year-old avowed socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez defeated the favored 20-year incumbent, House dummycrats-Democratic Caucus Chairman Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.), by a wide margin. Interestingly, Cortez played the race card against Crowley, sending the message that no one should vote for an old white guy. She even retweeted the picture of an attorney who expressed the sentiment that “all white people are racist.” She certainly knows something about white people. She was surrounded by them in wealthy Yorktown Heights, New York, which is where, contrary to her “Bronx girl” image, she spent most of her formative years. Perhaps Cortez should be asked if Pulosi and clown-Schumer — and other white dummycrats-Democrats — are “racist,” since they’re part of “all white people.” Regardless, Donald Trump, Jr. noted the internecine dummycrats-Democrat strife and tweeted: "You know the dummycrats-Democrats are having a bad week when they start calling each other racists instead of just using that term for anything or anyone they disagree with politically."...

Could it have been from watching scumbag/mad-Maxine Waters on TV?... Ms. scumbag/mad-Waters and I go back to the school busing struggle of 1977-78. I was against it along with great civic leaders like Bobbi Fiedler and Roberta Weintraub — true citizen heroines. scumbag/mad-Maxine Waters and the Bolshevik federal courts were for it. The results were as predicted. The Los Angeles Unified School District was basically killed. Did it do the black and brown kids any good? Not as far as I can tell. It’s the most extreme form of racism to believe that if you put a black kid next to a white kid, the magic from the white kid will somehow rub off on the black kid. It’s not going to happen and it didn’t happen. Now, one of the best school districts in the country is one of the worst. Thank you, scumbag/mad- Maxine Waters. These days, she’s spewing her hatred into the national blood stream inciting hatred against the Trump family. Straight transfusion: scumbag/mad-Maxine Waters’ angry blood doing its hateful duty...  https://spectator.org/sick-to-my-stomach/?utm_source=American+Spectator+Emails&utm_campaign=99de9562c7-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_07_02_07_08&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_797a38d487-99de9562c7-104608113

Inside the Iran Protests: An IPT Exclusive Video Report
by Steven Emerson

{ investigativeproject.org } ~ Anti-government protests throughout Iran are heating up, with security forces reportedly killing four protesters Saturday night... The unrest is driven by Iran's crippling economic conditions. Unemployment is soaring as Iran's currency, the rial, plummets by more than 50 percent. The city of Khorramshahr, in southwest Iran near the Iraqi border, has been without drinkable water for more than two weeks. Iran's economy was supposed to be aided by the elimination of economic sanctions under the nuclear deal reached with the United States and five allied nations. Instead, the regime chose to invest heavily in proxy wars in Yemen, in sending its own troops to protect Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, and to underwrite Hamas and Hizballah's endless terror campaigns aimed at annihilating Israel. Now the U.S. has withdrawn from the nuclear deal and is imposing new sanctions, promising to make Iran's economy worse. Ordinary Iranians in dozens of cities have taken to the street to curse their leaders, curse the terrorists in far-away lands and to say, essentially, Iran First...  .

Border Matters

maxresdefault-1.jpg

{ tommclaughlin.blogspot.com } ~ Do borders matter? Over the weekend I crossed from Maine to New Hampshire and spent $250 on wine and beer. There’s no bottle law there and prices are better because of that state’s tax policies. Real estate agents advertise homes in Lovell, Maine where I live, and in other towns within the Fryeburg area, as “in the Fryeburg Academy school district.” That means high-school-aged children living within district borders can attend Fryeburg Academy, a private school, at taxpayer expense.

From Maine Sunday Telegram

In Portland, two thousand people demonstrated enthusiastically in support of illegal immigrants last Saturday. They chanted and held signs reading: “No Human Being Is Illegal,” and “We were just following orders – Holocaust prison guards 1943 – ICE Officers 2018.” ICE stands for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the federal agency struggling to enforce laws governing who can cross our national borders and who cannot.

cropped-abolish-ice-wwp-banner-june-25-2018.jpg

Other demonstrations were held in Brunswick, Augusta, and Farmington. On my way back to Lovell I saw people in Bridgton waving and carrying signs protesting President Trump’s border enforcement policies. A friend told me of another demonstration in Conway, NH in which a young woman carried a sign proclaiming: “Imagine a World Without Borders.” There were similar demonstrations in cities all across the United States that day.

Last week, another young woman named Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won an upset victory in a New York dummycrats-Democrat congressional primary on a platform pledging to eliminate ICE. US Senator and presidential contender Kristin Gillebrand (D-NY) is also campaigning to abolish ICE. Congressman scumbag-Keith Ellison (D-MN), who is also Vice Chairman of the dummycrats-Democrat Party, paraded last week with a T-shirt proclaiming: “Yo No Creo En Fronteras”— Spanish for “I don’t believe in borders.” In a commencement speech for Northeastern University two years ago, former Secretary of State and dummycrats-Democrat presidential candidate hanoi-John Kerry told graduates to get ready for a “borderless world.”

On Sunday, Mexicans elected a new president who said: “We will defend migrants all over the American continent and the migrants of the world who, by necessity, must abandon their towns to find life in the United States; it’s a human right we will defend.” A headline in Monday’s San Diego Tribune declared: “Californians cross border to vote in Mexican election.” Are they Californians or are they Mexicans? Can they vote in both countries?

Britons voted two years ago to leave the EU — largely to control their borders. Italians just chose a new prime minister in an election the BBC called “dominated by the immigration debate.” Austria recently elected Chancellor Sebastian Kurz, who wants to strengthen Austria’s border against illegal immigrants. Chancellor Angela Merkel’s coalition government is in danger of breaking apart over border issues in neighboring Germany. President Donald Trump was elected here in 2016 promising to build a wall on the Mexican border.

DcrFuxhVMAAQ-IX.jpg

If border enforcement is not the biggest issue in the entire western world, I don’t know what is. Trying to imagine a world without borders as the Conway, New Hampshire young woman advises, seems problematic. Should a Fryeburg cop arrest people over the border in Conway? What about gun laws? They’re very strict in Massachusetts but not in Maine, New Hampshire or Vermont. What about sales taxes and income taxes? New Hampshire doesn’t have any but Maine and Massachusetts do. Who is obligated to pay them and who isn’t? Who should determine that? Will states just abandon their sovereignty?

We purchased fourteen acres on which we built our home in Lovell. Do we have the right to say who can come onto it or who cannot? Can anyone camp out here? Can they cut firewood? How about our dooryard? Does a dog have the right to bark at intruders? New Hampshire poet Robert Frost wrote: “Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in.” Family members have rights to come into our home, but do we have to take anybody? How about our home town? Our home state? Our home country? Are taxpaying citizens obligated to support whoever takes up residence? What is a citizen? Does that designation mean anything?

quote-home-is-the-place-where-when-you-have-to-go-there-they-have-to-take-you-in-robert-frost-10-34-62.jpg
If people from other parts of the world come into our home town, home state, or home country, are we obligated to pay for their health care and their education? Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez got 57% of the vote by declaring medical care, housing, education, and a federal job as “rights,” but for whom? Everybody in the world? There’s serious disagreement about those questions in North American and in Europe. So far, those disagreements are being dealt with through the political process — peacefully, that is — so far.

Here’s hoping it stays that way, but I have little confidence that it will.

{ dailysignal.com } ~ Recent remarks by Sen. Dianne Fein-stein, D-Calif., show the script that the left will be using to oppose President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee... to fill the vacancy from the retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy. The most prominent point so far is that the Senate should wait until after the 2018 election to consider Trump’s nominee. Echoing Senate Minority Leader Charles clown-Schumer, D-N.Y., Fein-stein, speaking in the Senate Judiciary Committee’s June 28 business meeting, said following the traditional confirmation pattern would be hypocritical. Ranking member Fein-stein, echoed by Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., claimed—as every dummycrats-Democrat and their left-wing allies will certainly do—Republicans set a “new standard” in 2016 that the Senate should never consider any Supreme Court nominee in any election year. If Republicans had taken that position in 2016, it certainly would have been new anddummycrats-Democrats might well benefit from it today. But that standard has never existed: not before, not during, and not after 2016...

A First Draft of the Life of Benjamin Netanyahu

{ mosaicmagazine.com } ~ Between 2006 and 2012, 40,000 Eritrean and Sudanese migrants arrived in Israel by way of Egypt... many settling in the parks and abandoned buildings surrounding Tel Aviv’s seedy bus station. Though the influx  would cease with better policing and the construction of a border fence near the entry points, the remaining migrants’ status has become a flash point in Israeli politics. Residents of South Tel Aviv have protested increased criminality and social breakdown in the neighborhood. Left-wing activists and their international allies have insisted that, given Jewish history and Israel’s own beginnings, the state has a special responsibility toward migrants. The Supreme Court, in the habit of issuing dictates on human-rights grounds, forbade the government from jailing migrants. Meanwhile, most Israelis, who only reluctantly would set foot in that corner of Tel Aviv, look on in wonderment. On April 2 of this year, a beaming Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that he had reached a deal to defuse the crisis. Israel would permanently accept 14,000 migrants; the rest, according to a plan agreed upon with the United Nations’ refugee agency, would be settled in Western countries. But this compromise, moderate in its very essence, enraged virtually everyone. Activist groups on the left spoke darkly of upcoming deportations. Enraged right-wing members of Netanyahu’s coalition threatened to bring down the government over a perceived betrayal of their hard line on illegal migrants. After a few frantic hours in which his governing coalition seemed at risk, Netanyahu announced that the deal was off. The can was kicked down the road...

Mom accuses pope of cover-up of son's sex abuse

{ wnd.com } ~ A Brazilian mother is accusing Pope Francis of directly covering up the sex abuse of her son by a pedophile priest 16 years ago when the pope... then known as Jorge Bergoglio, was the archbishop of Buenos Aires. Beatriz Varela was employed in a diocesan school when the abuse of her son, Gabriel Ferrini, then 14, took place Aug. 15, 2002 – turning to Bishop Luis Stöcker. “Initially, he showed consternation, but, as the time went by, he did not take any action,” Varela said. “Instead,” she said, he “tried to minimize the case, saying that I had to be merciful with persons who chose celibacy as a vocation because they have moments of weakness. Bergoglio was aware of this situation the sex-abuse of her son because no one can be installed in the Vicar’s House without the authorization of the archbishop. This is Bergoglio’s compromise: He speaks against cases of pedophilia in the Church, but uses hypocrisy, lies and complicity to cover them.”  Varela reportedly told the bishop that she wanted “truth, justice and the guarantee that such a thing would not happen to anyone else.” She says the Bishop then threatened to cut her employment. “I worked for a school in the diocese,” she said, explaining her difficult situation...   http://www.wnd.com/2018/07/mom-accuses-pope-of-cover-up-of-sons-sex-abuse/

{ frontpagemag.com } ~ I recently came across a Time article entitled “Let’s Teach About Islam in Our Schools.”... The piece is from December 2014, but the author’s views are still widely shared. Indeed, they represent the dominant point of view. So let’s see what he has to say. He writes that it’s essential to teach about Islam in public schools because there exists in America “a huge and profound ignorance about Islam.” Can’t argue with that. What else? Teaching about Islam, writes the author, means “rejecting the stereotyping of Islam.”  Good point. Stereotypes of Islam abound in our society. Schools should try to correct these misperceptions. What are the stereotypes? According to the author, people have been misled to believe “that fanaticism and intolerance are fundamental to Islamic religion, and that violence and even suicide bombing have deep Koranic roots.”...Where's the ACLU on this?   https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/270594/teaching-about-islam-william-kilpatrick

'Abolish ICE' — dummycrats-Demos' New Rallying Cry 

tbkR03YuI_lZrmJiZ9bCtwo6fTLKHPLRwlby5ogvnBCIjlOA01pzwqdTfdQZZi4E20d1tb4rYz8MJo56PQf6rSjyvZSu0TGBFMo-8yi805xHIf0AuMY7-x8W_N-U6qolrywPG_taC3j28bwdnoBCI6SI-qmiRs8MFBngmDJbGg8=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=450
by Nate Jackson:  What did it take for dummycrats-Democrats to finally find a government agency they want to eliminate? A midterm election strategy that includes demonizing President Donald Trump and Republicans for enforcing the law at the border. As dummycrats-Democrats lurch left, they’re even pushing socialist candidates to primary wins. And that’s having policy consequences.

             Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Millennial socialist who ousted the number four House dummycrats-Democrat in a primary last week, has called for abolishing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). It wasn’t long before dummycrats- Democrat 2020 presidential hopefuls followed suit. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) was the first, saying, “I believe that [ICE] has become a deportation force. And I think you should separate out the criminal justice from the immigration issues. I think you should reimagine ICE under a new agency, with a very different mission, and take those two missions out. So we believe that we should protect families that need our help, and that is not what ICE is doing today.”
               Gillibrand added, “Keeping our country safe cannot come at a cost to basic human rights.” Keep in mind that she’s the same senator who renewed the call for a ban on “assault weapons” after Thursday’s massacre with a shotgun, despite gun bans trampling Second Amendment rights. To dummycrats-Democrats, some “basic human rights” are more equal than others, but that’s another story.
               Other dummycrats-Democrats jumped on the anti-ICE bandwagon, including Sen. Elizabeth dinky-Warren (D-Cherokee), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-2020) and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio. Meanwhile, hundreds of anti-ICE protesters were arrested in the Hart office building in DC. “The president’s deeply immoral actions have made it obvious we need to rebuild our immigration system from top to bottom,” dinky-Warren declared Saturday, “starting by replacing ICE with something that reflects our morality and that works.” dummycrats-Democrats and morality … whoo boy.
               That “morality” hinges on smearing all Republicans as racist for advocating secure borders. Onedummycrats-Democrat strategist said as much, insisting Trump is using ICE as a tool to “radicalize his racist policies against anyone who doesn’t live in this country.” Given that, according to leftist morality, “racist” is the worst thing anyone or any institution can be, calls for abolishing ICE — and effectively all border enforcement — are inevitably going to become louder.

{ legalinsurrection.com } ~ Neil Gorsuch was an incredibly safe pick for Trump. Despite the plaintive wails of dummycrats-Democrats about a “stolen” seat... they didn’t have much with which to go after Gorsuch on the merits. Nonetheless dummycrats-Democrats filibustered Gorsuch, forcing Republican’s to play the nuclear option for a SCOTUS nominee as dummycrats-Democrats did in 2013 for all lower courts and made clear they would do if liar-Hillary won and they regained the Senate. Having forced the nuclear option for Gorsuch, dummycrats-Democrats made it easier for Trump to pick a more controversial nominee next time. It was a strategic error for dummycrats- Democrats, much as their exercising the nuclear option for all lower courts in 2013 came back to bite them. We are now at that next time, with Justice Anthony Kennedy retiring. What has changed is that Republicans have an even thinner margin in the Senate after losing the Alabama seat. Most of the reporting on the “short list” includes the same names — Amy Coney Barrett, Thomas Hardiman, Brett Kavanaugh, Raymond Kethledge, Amul Thapar. The Daily Caller reports that Barrett and Kavanaugh are the two leading contenders...
Palestinians Beat Female Journalists; World "Sees No Evil"

{ gatestoneinstitute.org } ~ Two female Palestinian journalists were beaten during protests in the West Bank in the past week... The two women, Lara Kan'an and Majdoleen Hassona, were assaulted by Palestinian Authority security officers while covering Palestinian demonstrations calling on President Mahmoud Abbas to lift the economic sanctions he imposed last year on the Gaza Strip. The physical assaults on Kan'an and Hassona are seen by Palestinians as part of the Palestinian Authority's continued effort to silence critics and intimidate journalists who fail to "toe the line." The beatings, which took place separately in the West Bank cities of Nablus and Tulkarem, mark a new high in the Palestinian leadership's crackdown on public freedoms: assaulting an Arab woman on the street is considered a humiliation of the highest order to her and her clan. While such assaults spark protests among Palestinians, the international community and Western correspondents covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict continue to play their game of "See No Evil." When the perpetrators are Palestinians, they can get away with -- literally, murder -- from the perspective of International human rights organizations and groups ostensibly concerned about freedom of the media...   https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/12634/palestinians-female-journalists

{ jpost.com } ~ Israeli diplomats complained about Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz’s planned meeting on July 4 with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in Vienna... while The Simon Wiesenthal Center and an Austrian organization opposed to Iran’s radical regime on Friday slammed the chancellor for courting an antisemitic regime. “It is high time that European leaders start treating leaders of Iran as a genocidal regime that openly expresses its desire to wipe Israel off the map,” Dr. Efraim Zuroff, the head of the Wiesenthal Center’s Jerusalem office, told the Post. “The invitation to Rouhani is in stark contrast to the concern that Kurz expressed for Israel’s security." Kurz visited Israel in June. Israeli diplomatic sources told The Jerusalem Post that they “expressed concern about the visit.” Zuroff asked of the Austrian government: “Would they have invited Hitler if they knew what he was going to do?” Zuroff, the chief Nazi-hunter for the Wiesenthal Center, termed Iran’s regime the worst of the “Islamic fundamentalists and a rogue terrorist regime bent on Israel’s destruction.”...   https://www.jpost.com/International/Austrias-Kurz-under-fire-for-planned-Rouhani-meeting-561230

The law passed in its final reading by a vote of 87 to 15, with the support of MKs from every faction, except for Meretz and the Joint List. “The money given in the past to terrorists and the lives of those who were murdered cannot be returned, but from now on it will be different, and lives will be saved,” the bill’s sponsor, Yesh Atid MK Elazar Stern, told the Knesset plenum after the vote. Stern paid tribute to US army captain Taylor Force, who was murdered on the Tel Aviv boardwalk in March 2016, saying that he inspired the law. Stern pointed out Taylor’s father, Stuart Force, who was present in the plenum for the vote. “We have too many Taylor Forces in Israel,” Stern lamented. “May this law be part of the commemoration of your late son, who is a hero of the Jewish people.”...   https://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Historic-anti-Pay-for-Slay-bill-passes-into-law-561378

China Is Still Involved in Iran's Nuclear Weapons Program
by Kaya Forest and Sierra Rayne

{ americanthinker.com } ~ During the 1980s and 1990s, China created the Iranian nuclear weapons program through the sales of complete nuclear and missile facilities, along with dual-use and unfinished technologies... Yet, in 1997, liar-Bill Clinton told the U.S. Congress that "China has provided clear and unequivocal assurances to the United States that it is not assisting and will not assist any non-nuclear weapon state, either directly or indirectly, in acquiring nuclear explosive devices or the material and components for such devices." The liar-Clinton administration's foreign policy was a disaster, and liar-Clinton's statement to Congress exemplifies how incompetent his administration was on a range of national security issues. In fact, liar-Clinton's claim was so dangerous that it directly placed the West on a collision course with a nuclear-armed Iran and North Korea, irreparably damaging non-proliferation efforts in the process.  Even now, we still see those on both sides of the political spectrum denying China's ongoing role in Iran's nuclear program. Back in 2006, John Tkacik, a senior research fellow in China policy at the Heritage Foundation, authored a report that concluded the following....

Senate GOP Holds Key for Supreme Court 

4hiBP-bzFYMjWGnF9YKTLsZmP4JohMhvW1I7Lg3EJJ5aflMRJ4A9DsTwf1BR45AwjlSxPNfKmRltTThx1JDCSyyVL42q2InJMD-imPcC1dzYIoF588xAxuYtn5QlDfmZLsUR8Lp2x7g-J1RoTY0WXmwkXZWYJPnA83zKmbrfFQ4=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=450
by Robin Smith:  The retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy is a tectonic shift in America’s judiciary, opening the door to a second appointment by President Donald Trump. The resulting tsunami will move the Court further to operate more as an originalist group of jurists, assuming that Trump is Trump — meaning that he’ll keep another campaign promise.

             Based on Trump’s Nov. 17, 2017 list of 25 jurists he’d pick from, they all have “originalist” credentials — those who will abide by his or her oath “to support and defend” our Constitution and the Rule of Law it enshrines. They will not be activists driven by a conjured-up notion of a “living constitution.” That same list produced Justice Neil Gorsuch, who was cast in the same mold as the late conservative icon, Justice Antonin Scalia.
               The political Right has cheered as the “winning” continues. Trump’s 17-month tenure was given a second Supreme Court vacancy following recent rulings that favored the Christian cake baker and stiff-armed public unions, just to name two decisions that reflected a more conservative application of the law. Social media captured the amplified hysteria of dummycrats-Democrats who were busy posting pictures of coat-hangers, implying that women in the 21st century would use a thin piece of metal to abort their own children if Roe v. Wade were to be overturned with a more right-leaning jurist.
               While there is hope that Supreme Court justices will apply the true Rule of Law as written and not reconstructed through the prism of either culture or political correctness, let’s not forget that the Senate has proven to be an unpredictable force in the Republican-controlled government during the days of Trump. Put simply, there are a few Republican senators who are being more vocally adversarial with Trump than they ever were with Barack liar-nObama.
               Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 of our Constitution notes that the president “shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint … Judges of the Supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States.” This advice and consent will not be a rubber stamp simply because the president and 51 senators who caucus as Republicans run under the same partisan banner.
               Once Trump makes his pick, that nominee will head first to the Senate Judiciary Committee to face its 11 GOP and 10 dummycrats-Democrat members. But look who sits on that committee — Arizona’s rino-Jeff Flake.dummycrats-Democrats stick together in almost every single key vote, but rino-Flake has been a leader within the Never-Trump effort, magnified by his  grandiosely announced departure from the Senate. Trump’s nominee should know in advance the hostilities that await, not based on qualifications, constitutional merit or anything other than whose nominee he or she will have become.
               After a prehearing investigation into the nominee’s background, the Judiciary Committee will host a public hearing with questions about philosophy, which, in this case, will most certainly revolve around Roe v. Wade. The message being sent by dummycrats-Democrats to fuel their base’s anger is that they must stop any efforts to reverse this “settled” law. This will conclude with a report of a favorable or negative recommendation or, a third choice to fail to report that blocks a full Senate vote.
               When you think of this open hearing, you’re right to remember the 1987 hearing of Robert Bork. The resulting public flogging of Bork, a highly qualified man selected by Ronald Reagan but who was labeled an “ideological extremist,” resulted in a new word in the American lexicon: “Borking.”
               When Bork was rejected, Anthony Kennedy was the second choice to move past then Judiciary Committee Chairman loose lips-Joe Biden and his slanderous gang. This shameful treatment has only been surpassed by the “high-tech lynching” that was described by the Court’s second black justice, Clarence Thomas, in his own words.
               To fully grasp the fury of the nominee offered by President George H.W. Bush in 1991, read his entire quote responding to the public parade of allegations and political theater as Thomas spat out his words with disgust: “This is a circus. It’s a national disgrace. And from my standpoint, as a black American, it is a high-tech lynching for uppity blacks who in any way deign to think for themselves, to do for themselves, to have different ideas, and it is a message that unless you kowtow to an old order, this is what will happen to you. You will be lynched, destroyed, caricatured by a committee of the U.S. Senate rather than hung from a tree.”
               Yep. Uncle loose lips-Joe Biden was Senate Judiciary Chairman in 1991, too, which mounted the opposition. Yet he and Ted Kennedy failed to stop Thomas’s confirmation. After 107 days of battle, the Senate voted 52-48 to confirm Thomas.
               Thirty-one years later and dummycrats-Democrat fearmongering is using the same script. It’s just that in 2018, the wavering of some Republican senators will be related to their personal dislike of President Trump.
               There are two Republican women who are sure to be the darlings of the Left, rino-Susan Collins (R-ME) and rino-Lisa Murkowski (R-AK). While both have indicated their commitment to their “pro-choice” stances, both have also edged away from making statements that a litmus test of support of Roe v. Wade would be applied to earn their votes.
               rino-Murkowski stated, “I don’t think it should be the only factor for anybody. It’s not as if those are the only matters that come before the Supreme Court.” rino-Collins parsed a little more carefully to say, “I do get a sense from them on whether or not they respect precedent. And from my perspective, Roe v. Wade is an important precedent and it is settled law.”
               Why do these two matter so much? Today’s Senate features 51 Republicans, 47 Democrats and two “Independents” who caucus with dummycrats-Democrats. That math, even employing the majority rule that works outside the filibuster-controlled Senate, doesn’t add up to a Trump win for a successful constitutional confirmation.
               Senate Republicans hold the critical role in the future of the U.S. Supreme Court for generations to come. Yes, conservatives should worry and be prepared to make calls.

scumbag/mad-Maxine Waters Says

His motivation, she believes, is to “protect” his leadership. You know, I was surprised at Chuck clown-Schumer, you know reached into the other house to do that, scumbag/mad-Waters told Reid when asked about criticism she received from her own party. I’ve not quite seen that done before. But one of the things I recognize, being an elected official, is in the final analysis, you know, leadership like Chuck clown-Schumer’s will do anything that they think is necessary to protect their leadership. What I have to do is not focus on them. I’ve got to keep the focus on the children and the fact that this administration is endangering children in the worst kind of way, she added. No one should call for harassment of political opponents. That’s not right. That’s not American,” clown-Schumer said of scumbag/mad-Waters last week...   https://rickwells.us/waters-schumer-position/

The Media's Collusion With 
Enemy States and Foreign Hackers
by Daniel Greenfield 
 

{ sultanknish.blogspot.com } ~ On Tom LoBianco’s LinkedIn profile, the former Associated Press reporter self-identifies as a “White House reporter covering Trump Russia probes.” At CNN, LoBianco writes that he “covered the 2016 presidential race and the Russia probes.” 

Now LoBianco is in trouble for reasons having nothing and everything to do with the Russia probe. 

Earlier this year, Elliot Broidy, a Trump ally and Republican fundraiser, was targeted by Qatari hackers. Broidy had been sharply critical of the terror state which has been linked to everything from 9/11 to Iran. And his emails were quickly peddled to media figures who spun them into pro-Qatari hit pieces. 

When Broidy struck back with a lawsuit targeting Qatar and its lobbyists, phone records showed that LoBianco had spoken three dozen times to a registered foreign agent of the Islamic terror state. 

LoBianco’s stories were nakedly hostile to Broidy, the Saudis and the UAE to the extent that they were hard to distinguish from Qatari propaganda. And they were aimed at what LoBianco and his collaborator deemed a “secret campaign” to “alter U.S. foreign policy and punish Qatar.” LoBianco’s story accused Broidy of not registering as a foreign agent, but he was the one allegedly colluding with a Qatari agent. 

In his story, LoBianco wrote of a "cache of emails obtained by the AP." The emails are described as having been "anonymously leaked." A more factually accurate term would have been "hacked" or "stolen." And LoBianco and the AP had no problem with posting these stolen emails online. 

There was nothing unusual about that. Media organizations routinely publish stolen emails while describing them as ‘leaked’: a term associated with classified government or corporate documents, not stolen private correspondence. Like LoBianco’s stories, they emphasize the role of the news organization in “analyzing” the “documents” while evading the question of how they came into their possession. 

Stolen emails have become typical tools of political warfare. But colluding with foreign agents and receiving stolen emails from foreign hackers is at the center of the Russiagate allegations. Yet the same reporter investigating Russiagate appeared to be involved in his own Qatargate. And he wasn’t alone. 

The stolen emails were distributed to and written up by a variety of mainstream media outlets including the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg and the New York Times. The campaign against Broidy using stolen and altered emails was misleadingly described by LoBianco and other outlets as an investigation. But the investigation allegedly consisted of foreign agents handfeeding stolen emails to reporters. And then seemingly setting out a pro-Qatari and anti-UAE narrative that those reporters slavishly abided by. 

And LoBianco went from writing up Dem claims that the Trump campaign had colluded with the Russians on the hacked dummycrats-DNC emails to writing up hacked Republican emails from the Qataris. The New York Times and McClatchy claimed to have broken stories about Trump, Russia and the hacked emails. They also appear to have trafficked in emails stolen by Qatar to go after one of President Trump’s allies. 

Now the hacks are the subject of an FBI investigation. And the interactions between the media and Qatari agents have become a crucial link in unraveling the motives behind the crime. 

Whether the media has the right to collude with enemy nations and publish stolen emails in order to undermine American foreign policy is a serious question. But it certainly has no right to pursue an extended campaign to destroy an elected official over allegations of behavior that it engages in. 

That is the typical double standard which the media left deploys against the political right. Its corrosive effects have leached ethics and integrity out of public life and replaced them with a zero sum game. 

The entire trade in hacked emails, by domestic or foreign actors, only exists because of the media. Whether it’s Sarah Palin’s emails, the dummycrats-DNC emails, Broidy’s emails or Podesta’s emails, the practice wouldn’t exist without the collusion and complicity of media outlets with the hackers and their agenda. 

If the media wants to investigate someone for colluding in email hacks, it can look in the mirror. 

The media was eager to peddle the same stolen emails that it wants to blame on Trump. The Washington Post and ABC News are still cashing in on stories about the hacks garnished with lurid clickbait headlines like, "Here are the latest, most damaging things in the dummycrats-DNC's leaked emails" and "The 4 Most Damaging Emails From the dummycrats-DNC WikiLeaks Dump". Did Trump force them to run those stories? 

To paraphrase Casablanca’s Captain Renault, “I am shocked to find that email hacking is going on here!” 

What began with ‘whistleblowers’ passing government documents to reporters turned into the mainstream media launching a vigorous defense of Gawker publishing Hulk Hogan’s stolen sex tape. The distinction between journalists holding powerful institutions accountable by publishing documents that should have been public and humiliating anyone they don’t like by doxing them has entirely vanished. 

The legitimacy, provenance and chain of custody of the stolen documents have also ceased to matter. 

After the Broidy lawsuit, BuzzFeed published an outraged piece warning that Broidy’s lawsuit threatened the First Amendment and the confidentiality of sources. But the First Amendment and shield laws were never meant to protect criminal activity. The media had been quick to argue that attorney-client confidentiality shouldn’t have protected Trump and Cohen for that reason. Yet the media still believes that shield laws should protect its criminal activity, including possible collusion with enemy states. 

It’s the same old double standard. 

The distinction between journalism and opposition research vanished some time ago. The Trump investigation was based on the work of FusionGPS, a smear shop run by former reporters that passed along its smears to reporters and government agencies alike while working for liar-Hillary Clinton. The intersection of foreign and domestic actors in generating the Trump investigation has its echoes in Broidy’s case where foreign governments, lobbyists and hackers used the media to do their dirty work. 

Like an iceberg, most of the media operates underwater. The fixers who feed and sometimes write the media’s stories are the invisible men and women of journalism. It takes subpoenas, like those of House Republicans or Elliot Broidy, to drag them out of the shadows of Manhattan and D.C. restaurants and into the glaring light of day. That’s what journalists used to do. Now it takes lawyers to expose them. 

The media needs to decide whether colluding with enemy states and foreign hackers to influence American politics is a praiseworthy act or the worst form of treason imaginable. And then, instead of going back and forth whenever it’s politically convenient, it needs to pick one and stick with it. 

That’s an unrealistic expectation in an age where all standards are politically relative. Sexual assault, racism and treason are all excused when practiced by a progressive. But it’s equally unrealistic of the media to think that it can bring down Trump with conspiracy theories about a crime that it’s guilty of. 

The media has made a fortune accusing Trump of its own crimes. But as the FBI investigates the Broidy hack, the bill for the media’s hypocrisy may be coming due.

Commie scumbag-John Lewis at Atlanta Rally -
 Turn America Upside Down to Turn it Right Side Up
{ rickwells.us } ~ President Trump signed an executive order to reunite illegal alien families... The left is determined on using the immigration topic to further their hopes for a win in 2018. After scumbag/mad-Maxine Waters was roasted for inflaming a crowd last week, we thought the left would tone it down we were wrong. REP scumbag-JOHN LEWIS spoke at the immigration rally in Atlanta on Saturday and sent out a very mixed message to the crowd. He began his speech by saying, “It’s time for some of us to get into good trouble…necessary trouble”. He then ramped the crowd up by saying, “We may have to turn American upside down to turn it right-side up,” Rep. The crowd went nuts. He immediately switched gears to tell the crowd, “Whatever we do we must do it in a peaceful, nonviolent, orderly fashion”. We just want to know how he thinks the left will make that happen. We call that talking out of both sides of your mouth! He then used the memory of MLK, Jr. to soften his rhetoric but then said “we’re gonna win this battle”...Ya, hell they won't.

{ jpost.com } ~ The Islamic Republic of Iran sought to obtain illicit goods for its missile program from Germany... the intelligence agency for Germany’s most populous state, North Rhine-Westphalia, announced on Friday. In the report reviewed by The Jerusalem Post, the intelligence agency wrote: “Because of the demand for relevant goods for its rocket program, Iran continues to represent proliferation defense in our work.” The report cited Iran’s activities in its section titled “Education and Defense from Proliferation.” The report, which covers 2017, stated that in connection with illegal Iranian and Pakistani efforts to obtain missile technology “in the overwhelming majority of the number of cases, however, there occurred no delivery of the particular goods.” It is unclear from the report how many attempts Iran has made to secure illegal technology nor the number of attempts that led to the transfer of proliferation merchandise and know-how to Iran’s regime...

{ gatestoneinstitute.org } ~ A Dutch government report published in June showed that Muslims in the Netherlands are becoming more religious... The report, based on information from 2006-2015, is a study of more than 7,249 Dutch nationals with Moroccan and Turkish roots. Two thirds of the Muslims in the Netherlands are from Turkey or Morocco. According to the report, 78% of Moroccan Muslims pray five times a day, as do 33% of Turkish Muslims. Approximately 40% of both groups visit a mosque at least once a week. More young Moroccan women wear a headscarf up from 64% in 2006 to 78% in 2015 and large majorities of both groups eat halal 93% of Moroccan Muslims and 80% of Turkish Muslims. 96% of Moroccan Muslims say that faith is a very important part of their lives, whereas the number is 89% for Turkish Muslims. The number of Dutch Moroccan Muslims who can be described as strictly adhering to Islam has increased from 77% in 2006, to 84% in 2015. For Turkish Muslims, the numbers have increased from 37% to 45%. There are few secular Muslims -- 7% among Turkish Muslims, 2% among Moroccan Muslims. In Denmark, the trend of Muslims becoming more religious was apparent as early as 2004, when a poll showed that Muslims were becoming more religious than their parents, especially "young, well-educated and well-integrated women"...

{ timesofisrael.com } ~ Australia has ended direct aid to the Palestinian Authority over fears its donations will be used to pay Palestinians convicted of terrorism and their families... Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said Monday that funding to a World Bank trust fund was cut after she wrote to the Palestinian Authority in late May seeking assurance that Australian funding was not being misspent. Israel has long accused the PA and its leader, Mahmoud Abbas, of encouraging terror attacks against Israelis by rewarding perpetrators and their families with monthly stipends. It has even withheld millions in tax revenues over the Palestinians’ unwillingness to change its policy. Israeli lawmakers are also advancing a law to slash funds to the PA by the same amount it uses to pay terrorists...

Time to Put the dummycrats-Democratic Party on Suicide Watch?
by Selwyn Duke

{ americanthinker.com } ~ There perhaps has never been a time when the dummycrats-Democrats did a better job of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory... After being well ahead in the generic congressional polls, those numbers collapsed early this year along with the Trump/Russia/Collusion narrative. Since then, leftists have been flailing around desperately searching for an issue. The first act was stripping Second Amendment rights after the Parkland mass shooting, starring soy boy Camera Hogg; dummycrats-Democrats, infamous for short, childlike memories, obviously forgot that this issue might have cost scumbag-Al Gore the 2000 election. And gun grabbing doesn’t poll any better today. The second act is the treatment of those invading our country a.k.a. illegal migrants, starring a hapless little Honduran girl used as a human prop by Time magazine never mind that her father has a good job back home as a boat captain. Now, related to this, dummycrats-Democrats have a new issue: abolishing the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ICE agency.  A week ago this was recognized as a fringe idea even among staunch dummycrats- Democrats, the fringiest fringe around, but then something happened: One Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shocked the dummycrats-Democrat establishment by defeating the favored 20-year incumbent, House dummycrats-Democratic Caucus Chairman Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.), in last Tuesday’s dummycrats-Democrat primary in New York’s 14th district. She ran, in part, on abolishing ICE, so now this has become the “new rallying call for 2020 dummycrats-Democrats,” as the AP put it...   https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/07/time_to_put_the_democratic_party_on_suicide_watch.html

Why the Mexican Election Matters 

KlcvYo2dBsKRTemL7kgg4eTzqVyGjFvFGlY-UrMaOtnUe9yvGl0sWX2w7gUD7j0EBUuYNQknzEt80iQkeMUzbalcxaI6aEtr7hWkeziy5AJ1RRIo0zifpjlwrzxeGFrT2jN1DXtjG5xzQrihxUPRIyYaOCJahQyj1o_JOvOHefc=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=450
by Thomas Gallatin:  In a landslide victory over the weekend, unabashed socialist and former mayor of Mexico City Andrés Manuel López Obrador won the Mexican presidency, just as we noted he would Friday, becoming the first far leftist in decades to take the office. Campaigning on a leftist-populist platform that included a call for an end to the war on drugs, raising the minimum wage and free college, Obrador made the biggest international headlines with his comments on illegal immigration. He declared that poor Mexicans should “leave their towns and find a life in the United States” — that it was their “human right.” Yes, our neighbor’s president-elect called for mass migration to our country.

             A brief look at the numbers should give any American pause when seeing a socialist take over a nation that is already exploiting its relationship with the U.S. on several fronts. Take NAFTA for instance. Currently, our second-largest trade deficit, standing at $70 billion annually, is with Mexico. NAFTA was billed as a means to bring about greater parity between the American and Mexican economies, which in turn was supposed to help neutralize the problem of illegal immigration. Three and a half decades later, however, and the problem of illegal immigration has only become more acute. The profits from NAFTA have done little more than increase the power of Mexican drug cartels and nearly 44% of Mexicans still live below the national poverty line.
               Moreover, an estimated 12% of the Mexican population now lives within the U.S. — and a huge number are here illegally. Not only are they benefiting from the American economy and welfare, but they are sending a whopping $30 billion annually back to Mexico. Is it any wonder Obrador is encouraging illegal immigration? By cracking down, he would not only stem a significant source of revenue but would also invite the wrath of the drug cartels whose illicit trade depends upon illegal immigration and human trafficking.
               What makes Obrador’s election so concerning to the U.S. is the fact that his proposed leftist policies would only exacerbate America’s border and trade problems. Look no further than the devastating effects socialist policies have had in Venezuela. Now imagine that type of economic collapse happening — accelerating — in Mexico. It will make America’s current immigration crisis look tame. Has there ever been a more important motivation than now to build the wall?   ~The Patriot Pos

Sen rino-Susan 'Tater' Collins on If She'll Support 
Anti-Infanticide SCOTUS Nominee
{ rickwells.us } ~ With rino-John McCain holding on to his Senate seat in Arizona so that it can be inherited by his wife through a decree... by family friend and Arizona Governor Doug Ducey, the Republican margin is razor thin for one of the most important Supreme Court nominations ever. A couple of female RINOs, Murkowski of Alaska and Susan “Spud” Collins of Maine could cast the deciding vote. The Maine rino-Senator, who always sounds as if she just got hit by a hammer and is trying to gather herself, described an earlier meeting between herself and President Trump as him “just trying to solicit her views on the type of nominee that I was looking for.” He was likely doing that but not in order to please her with his choice but to determine if she’s a solid “no” or if there is some way he could swing her to a “yes.” rino-Collins wants a pro-abortion nominee, what she called respecting precedent, one that would not favor a repeal of Roe V. Wade. She doesn’t see any abortionists on the list of 25 that President Trump will be selecting from, so she’s urging him to broaden it, to adopt the position of the pro-death dummycrats-Democrats in order to win her support...

CNN Exposes Senator scumbag-Keith Ellison’s 
Hypocrisy in Embarrassing Takedown 
{ patrioticviralnews.com } ~ Ok. Fine. Let’s talk about the “Muslim ban.” The very predictable beginning of this conversation is that Trump’s travel ban is not and never was a ban on Muslims... It is a travel ban on a very short list of countries that have extreme political volatility and are known breeding grounds for the most powerful, extreme and anti-American terrorist organizations in the known world. That these countries happen to be majority Muslim is not Trump’s fault. More to the point, the ban exists for all citizens of said countries. Race, religion and creed are not factors here. It’s a simple security issue. Major terrorist attacks are far more likely to originate from these locations than any other, and so the travel ban makes it easier for intelligence communities to stay ahead of disaster. That’s why the Supreme Court upheld the ban. Trump is well within his authority, and the ban itself contains nothing inherently discriminatory. That’s evidenced by the fact that more than 97 percent of all Muslims in the world are completely unaffected by the ban. But, getting a liberal to admit even a single one of those points is more difficult than finding a working example of socialism...   http://patrioticviralnews.com/articles/cnn-exposes-senator-keith-ellisons-hypocrisy-in-embarrassing-takedown/

clown-Schumer's SCOTUS Talking Points 
Are Bogus and Hypocritical -- 
and Should Be Ignored 
by Guy Benson

{ townhall.com } ~ As the pitched political battle over the fresh Supreme Court vacancy starts to take shape, Senate dummycrats-Democrats are reduced to employing weak, desperate talking points as they attempt to pressure President Trump and Republicans over the type of jurist who should be selected to replace Justice Kennedy -- and the timing of that confirmation process. Former Vice President loose lips-Joe Biden is calling for a 'consensus' pick, which is basically code for a non-conservative nominee. It's the sort of thing dummycrats-Democrats always try to insist upon when the other side is doing the picking.  

One could argue that Merrick Garland, President liar-nObama's failed 2016 selection, somewhat fit that bill.  He had a reputation as a moderate-ish left-of-center judge, and was old enough that his rulings wouldn't necessarily have shaped American jurisprudence for a generation. But consider two other factors: First, liar-nObama was up against a Republican Senate when he tapped Garland, during a heated election year.  A non-radical centrist-leaning appointment was liar-nObama's only chance of getting someone through.  Second, and more importantly, Garland would have pulled the Court substantially to the left because he was slated to supplant conservative icon Antonin Scalia. dummycrats-Democrats are more than happy to profoundly alter the ideological makeup of the Court when it benefits their worldview. But when the shoe is on the other foot, we are treated to dramatic appeals for "balance" and "consensus." President Trump should disregard this unserious guidance and select the strongest and best-qualified confirmable constitutional conservative available. His list is quite good, as is his reported short list. 

Then there's the point Chuck clown-Schumer and others keep making about pushing the nomination off until after the election. His argument, which is something close to pure trolling, is that because Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans insisted on waiting to see who won the 2016 campaign before considering a SCOTUS nominee, the same standard or 'principle' should be applied to the current midterm cycle; after all, shouldn't the people get to decide what sort of Senate gets to provide advice and consent on this matter?

Fact-checkers have already flayed this specious contention as the misleading jumble that it is. I also responded to similar "hypocrisy" charges on Twitter.

The first point refers to a clear difference between the type of election we're discussing, but I'm not sure if that really matters, for reasons I'll explain later. The second is a reference to the very relevant history of seniordummycrats-Democrats advocating that the 'Garland treatment' be applied to potential Supreme Court nominees...from Republican presidents. Then-Senator loose lips-Joe Biden did so in 1992, and clown-Schumer himself did so in 2007, before the election year had even started.  Mitch McConnell embraced the loose lips-Biden and clown-Schumer standard, secure in the conviction thatdummycrats-Democrats would absolutely have done the same thing if the roles were reversed. They'd signaled that explicit intention in the past, and their long track record of unilateral escalations on judicial confirmations is highly important context. They've been playing increasingly tough hardball for decades.  

The third point is the most relevant precedent on the fake 'issue' dummycrats-Democrats are raising. President liar-nObama got his second Supreme Court justice confirmed fairly easily in the late summer of a midterm election year, mere months before his party got decimated at the polls. McConnell has also noted that the previous dummycrats-Democratic president was afforded the exact same courtesy in 1994. liar-Bill Clinton picked Justice Breyer during that midterm cycle, the leftist judge was confirmed with 87 votes -- and months later, Republicans won a blowout victory, flipping control of both houses. In other words, based on the treatment of both liar-Clinton and liar-nObama, Trump's forthcoming nominee should be confirmed rather effortlessly. Liberals will argue that the rules have changed due to Republicans' disgraceful treatment of Merrick Garland, which they claim was tantamount to "stealing" a seat on the bench for an in-depth account of the precedent and history of failed SCOTUS nominees, read this. Conservatives will rightly laugh at the latter accusation citing the loose lips-Biden/clown-Schumer rule, and correctly explain that McConnell's 2016 blockade was richly-deserved retaliation for years of outrageous and partisan dummycrats-Democratic abuses and power grabs, exemplified by the tactics of former Senate leader Harry dinky-Reid. The Right has the much better argument.

But here's some straight talk: Both parties' posturing and claims on this subject are a collection of self-interested, expedient nonsense. dummycrats-Democrats don't have a leg to stand on, having remorselessly and calculatingly pursued their ideological interests in these high-stakes skirmishes for years -- and conducting themselves with especially shameless ruthlessness during the George W. Bush and liar-nObama presidencies. Any claims of victimhood, or caterwauling about "norms," from them is astoundingly hypocritical. But let's not pretend that McConnell is laying out some sort of principled standard here. Notice that in his remarks, he gives himself some wiggle room to consider a Trump nominee in 2020, because that would not be the end of Trump's second term, or something. At its core, this is a meaningless distinction.  

As I alluded to above, these points and 'rules' being raised are being marshaled almost entirely for fleeting convenience. They're temporary window-dressing to defend a current course of action, based on current political concerns.  McConnell has to put on a show, I suppose, because the public probably wouldn't love the unvarnished truth. If it were more politically permissible to just tell it like it really is, he'd say this: " dummycrats-Democrats have used and abused judicial confirmation battles for their own ideological and partisan ends for years, adopting an ends-justify-the-means attitude to justify all sorts of raw power grabs. Republicans' unilateral surrender is officially over.  We are responding in-kind, and intend to continue doing so."

Parting thought: Is there any chance for a de-escalation? Ideally, I'd like to think that once both parties have been badly burned by the nasty fights and scorched-earth tactics of the last 15 years, they'd come together and negotiate a mutual climb-down. Is there any chance of that happening? Let me put it this way: At the very very next opportunity to screw over Republicans on this issue, the dummycrats-Democratic base is going to insist on revenge for Garland. They'll probably get it. Meanwhile, even a pro-compromise conservative like myself would oppose the GOP making the first concession toward a reconciliation. dummycrats-Democrats are primarily responsible for breaking this system, so it's incumbent on them to go first in exhibiting good faith toward making things right. Do these cross-pressures answer my question above? I'm afraid they do.

“Independence Forever!”

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

By Craig Andresen – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

adams-1.jpg?width=156On July 4th, we celebrate our nation’s birth and this year, 2018, it will be the 242nd time we have done so but that date, while by no means suspect, should be seen in context. One of our founders thought the celebration would occur on a different date and he, in no uncertain terms, put it in writing using the social media of the day.

The date was July 3rd, 1776 when John Adams,a prolific letter writer and a visionary founder of our nation penned a letter to his wife Abigail. Adams, in which he made what at the time was a series of bold predictions.

“The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more.”

Adams missed the mark by 2 days, believing that the day the document was presented to the Continental Congress, not the day it would be adopted, would be the celebratory day, but this excerpt from a simple letter offers much more, I believe, than a 48 hour premature pronouncement of celebration.

Is Guilt Killing the West from Within?

{ gatestoneinstitute.org } ~ A "sense of guilt" for colonialism is debasing the West from within, according to Professor Bruce Gilley... and authoritarian regimes such as Iran, Russia, China and Turkey are profiting from this weakness. The Romans called it damnatio memoriae: the damnation of memory that resulted in destroying the portraits and even the names of the fallen emperors. The same process is now underway in the West about its colonial past. The cultural elite in the West now seem so haunted by feelings of imperialist guilt that they are no longer confident that our civilization is something to be proud of. A sense of guilt now seems a kind of post-Christian substitute religion that seduces many Westerners. The French scholar Shmuel Trigano suggested that this ideology is turning the Westerners into "post-colonial subjects" who no longer believe in their own civilization, but instead what will destroy it: multiculturalism. In France, for example, a manifesto was launched for "a multicultural and post racial republic". The result would be, in the words of the anthropologist Jean-Loup Amselle, a "war of identities" and a clash between communities...I disagree.   https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/12569/guilt-museums-artifacts

tarmac meeting was planned via Secret Service, FBI

{ bizpacreview.com } ~ Stunning revelations from the IG report of DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz an liar-nObama appointee suggests that the 2016 tarmac meeting between then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch and liar-Bill Clinton was coordinated... contradicting their claims that the meeting was accidental and coincidental. In 2016, Lynch — the U.S. attorney general under Barack liar-nObama — secretly met for 30 minutes with liar-Bill Clinton on an airport tarmac in Arizona. At the time, then-presidential candidate liar-Hillary Clinton was being investigated by the FBI over her 30,000 deleted emails and her destroyed government-issued phones, which she and her team smashed with hammers. Several days after the tarmac meeting, the DOJ which was headed by then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch decided not to file any charges against liar-Hillary for her unauthorized use of an unsecured, private email server to conduct government business and her mass-deletion of 30,000 emails. Page 203 of the IG report suggests that liar-Bill Clinton’s Secret Service detail had contacted Lynch’s FBI detail to set up the meeting when their planes were on the tarmac....

A Tale of Two Deep States
by Daniel Greenfield 

{ sultanknish.blogspot.com } ~ “Why the hell are we standing down?"

That was the question that the White House's cybersecurity coordinator was asked after Susan Rice, liar-nObama's national security adviser, issued a stand down order on Russia. 

Testimony at the Senate Intelligence Committee hearings on Russian interference in the election once again raised the central paradox of the Russia conspiracy theory. If Russian interference in the election represented the crisis that we are told it did, why did liar-nObama fail to take any meaningful action? 

The White House’s own cybersecurity people wanted an aggressive response before being told to stand down. liar-nObama issued a bloodless warning to Russia while his people deliberately crippled our offense. 

dummycrays-Democrats and the media blamed the Russian hacking on Trump. But it was Susan Rice who had told the cybersecurity team to “knock it off” and liar-nObama’s people who hadn’t wanted him to be “boxed in” and forced to respond to Russian actions. Was this just the usual appeasement or was there more to it? 

Why didn’t liar-nObama and his team want to stop Russian hacking? Because they needed the Russians. 

The 2016 election is really the story of two deep state intelligence operations that dovetailed neatly with each other. One was an ongoing Russian operation that took advantage of a weak president to sow chaos in America and Europe. The other was a domestic political operation utilizing counterintelligence resources in the United States and Europe to spy on, undermine and try to bring down Trump. 

Contrary to claims made by liar-nObama operatives, the Russian operation was not new. Russian hackers and spies had done enormous damage to America’s intelligence community. But they had succeeded so well because the mission of the intelligence community had shifted from deterring foreign adversaries to suppressing domestic political opponents. And this new mission made the Russians attacks irrelevant. 

The Russian attacks on the formerly formidable NSA were so easy to accomplish because it was no longer countering the Russians. Instead liar-nObama viewed it as a police state tool for spying on pro-Israel activists, members of Congress and Trump campaign officials. The NSA’s opposite numbers in Russia, posing as rogue hackers, were no longer hammering rivals, but a twisted and crippled organization.

liar-nObama didn’t want to fight the Russians, but the Russian attacks were very useful because they justified the NSA’s powers, which he was abusing not to go after the Russians, but after American political rivals. And the Russian election hacks played perfectly into his hands by justifying the counterintelligence investigations supposedly aimed at the Russians, but really aimed at domestic political opponents. 

The Mueller investigation is only the latest of these disguised counterintelligence police state gimmicks. 

Without the Russians, liar-nObama’s people would have just been nakedly abusing their powers to spy on Americans. But as long as the Russians were active, his deep state had the excuse that it needed. 

The two intelligence operations, the Russian one and theliar-nObama one, were interdependent. Their deep state symbiosis was possible only because neither side threatened the core interests of the other. 

The Russians were a national security threat, but liar-nObama’s people didn’t care about national security. Andliar-nObama’s counterintelligence operation was aimed at domestic political opponents rather than the Russians. It’s still unknown if the Russians and liar-nObama’s people actively colluded in these operations, but it’s likely that seasoned professionals on both sides had a quiet understanding of their respective roles. 

The Russians had not set out to alter the outcome of the election. Nor did they have that capability. Their attacks followed the pattern of the Dulles Plan, a fictional piece of Soviet propaganda which attributed any anti-Soviet activity to an American conspiracy to undermine Communism. The KGB veterans running Russia as an actual deep state sought to undermine the American political system by feeding extremism, creating panic and discrediting elections. And that also fit the liar-nObama agenda. 

liar-nObama’s people had spent eight years dismantling political norms and undermining America. The KGB deep state conspirators in Russia and their leftist counterparts in Washington D.C. had emerged from the same ideological school. Their aims and allegiances had diverged, but the ex-Communists in Moscow and Adams Morgan Socialists in Washington D.C. shared a common hatred for America and its values. 

There was no reason to interfere with the Russian interference. liar-nObama and his people did not believe that the Russians would significantly affect the election. But if his efforts to eavesdrop on Trump officials came to light, the Russians had provided him with an alibi. Susan Rice, as national security adviser, was at the center of the eavesdropping effort and had every reason to protect the Russian operation. 

Protecting the Russians also protected the liar-nObamas. 

Nor did the liar-nObama deep state have any particular allegiance to liar-Hillary Clinton’s campaign. The liar-nObamas and the liar-Clintons loathed each other. Though both factions were leftists, their approaches were as much at variance as Bolsheviks and Trotskyists. liar-nObama had been forced to make a deal with the liar-Clintons to secure his hold on the Democrat operation. But his support for liar-Hillary Clinton was only an endorsement of the lesser evil. Her defeat left him and his political allies in total control of the dummycrats-Democrat operation. 

And the chaos and violence of his anti-Trump resistance achieved his goal of radicalizing the dummycrats-Democrats. 

The Russians didn’t hack the election. That conspiracy theory remains wishful thinking. But the allegation proved very useful in enabling everything from the pre-election eavesdropping on political opponents to the post-election sabotage of the Trump administration to the move away from electronic voting to paper ballots which enable the old-fashioned kind of dummycrats-Democrat ballot stuffing. 

But like an iceberg, the most troubling development of the Russian conspiracy is mostly underwater. 

After 9/11, the intelligence community was revived with a new purpose. That purpose was fighting Islamic terrorism. During liar-nObama’s two terms, the intelligence community was compromised, crippled and transformed into a domestic deep state aimed at suppressing the political opposition. Tragically, it came to resemble the KGB, with its domestic surveillance and investigation of political opponents. 

This transformation of law enforcement and intelligence agencies did not emerge out of thin air. 

The Founders were rightly cautious of the power of a strong central government. And a national law enforcement and intelligence infrastructure was always ripe for the worst big government abuses. 

The FBI’s record of political tampering under Hoover was no secret. And it didn’t end there. Everything in Washington D.C. is political. Especially the apolitical. Its engine of careerism runs on networking and connections. The apolitical bureaucracy is a buzzing hive of ambition and backstabbing. Every agency has its own Machiavellian subcultures with courtiers, saboteurs, spies and manipulators. And every agency culture has a leftist ideological component, among its other agendas, some more than others. 

The liar-nObama years politicized everything from the food you ate to the clothes you wore. Certainly no arm of government survived those terrible two terms without being substantially transformed. 

As the cold winter sun set on another year in Washington D.C., the deep state was reborn. 

The dummycrats-Democrats have spent two years accusing Republicans of colluding with Russia. But as usual they were accusing their political opponents of their own crime. Republicans had not undermined national security. The dummycrats-Democrats did. A Republican president hadn’t sat across from Putin’s agent and assured him that he would have more flexibility to make deals after the election. A Republican president hadn’t let the Russians hack our national security secrets to provide a casus belli for targeting his opponents. 

That was all liar-nObama. 

Barack liar-nObama and Susan Rice sabotaged efforts to stop the Russians because their deep state domestic spying program depended on Russian collusion, both the reality and the allegation. Everything from the original allegation, liar-Clinton campaign opposition research which drew on claims by a Russian intelligence operative, to the Mueller counterintelligence investigation, which has done nothing to actually stop the Russians, but has gone after Republican campaign pros, needed the Russians as its stalking horse. 

Russian hacking didn’t change the election. But liar-nObama’s exploitation of Russian hacking nearly did. We still don’t know what materials were gathered by the eavesdropping operation. Or who saw them. Information is the ultimate weapon in national security and election campaigns. liar-nObama used the former to tamper with the latter. And all these years later, we still don’t know what damage was done. 

While Mueller prowls around pursuing liar-Hillary Clinton’s conspiracy theories, those crimes remain unexplored. But we do know that the Russians didn’t do anything that liar-nObama didn’t allow them to do. 

Any serious effort to investigate Russian election hacks must begin with the man who let them to do it.

Trump Getting Help From Saudis to bring Down Gas Prices
{ rickwells.us } ~ President Donald Trump asked King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia to increase crude oil production... to put downward pressure on prices and alleviate some pain at the gas pumps. Trump tweeted on Saturday morning that he asked King Salman to “increase oil production, maybe up to 2,000,000 barrels, to make up the difference,” adding, “Prices too high! He has agreed!” Saudi officials told The Wall Street Journal they made no firm commitment to increase crude oil production, “but rather assured the U.S. of its capability to meet oil demand.” Renewed U.S. sanctions against Iran, unrest in Venezuela, escalated fighting in Libya and increased demand for oil have all put upward pressure on prices. In response, Americans have seen gas prices increase more than 60 cents per gallon in the past year...   https://rickwells.us/trump-saudis-gas-prices/

Ryan Amnesty Legislation Fails Spectacularly

{ fairus.org } ~ On Wednesday, the House of Representatives finally voted on H.R. 6136, the Border Security and Immigration Reform Act (BSIRA)... better known to everyday Americans as Speaker Paul Ryan’s (R-Wisc.) Amnesty Plan. Last month, House Leadership was backed into a corner by members of their own party when rogue Republicans drafted a discharge petition to force a vote on several mass amnesty bills. Attempting to avoid a political debacle, House leadership agreed to place two immigration bills on the floor for a vote. One would be H.R. 4760, the Securing America’s Future Act the underlying bill of the discharge petition and the other would be the BSIRA. Over the past six months, the Securing America’s Future Act has been touted as the vehicle for many of President Trump’s immigration enforcement initiatives. However, despite having a solid list of Republican co-sponsors and the support of the White House behind it, the legislation failed on the House floor last week by a narrow margin. So narrow, in fact, the BSIRA was pulled from consideration and rescheduled for this week. Likely, in an attempt to secure more support than H.R. 4760 received, leadership scrambled over the weekend to strengthen the BSIRA with more enforcement measures. Late Monday night House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) submitted an amendment to the legislation to add mandatory E-Verify and a new H-2C guestworker program to the underlying bill. Apparently, these changes did not secure enough support because on Tuesday, the text was again amended. This time, the bill contained language that would remove a returning worker exemption for H-2B workers in the United States— essentially tripling the number of low-skilled seasonal workers in the United States at any given time. However, these changes likely added to entice votes from business-first GOP members proved insufficient yet again; because, by Wednesday morning, the BSIRA was returned to its original pre-amendment text. A few hours later the bill failed miserably with 301 Nays and only 121 Yeas...  https://www.fairus.org/legislation/federal-legislation/ryan-amnesty-legislation-fails-spectacularly?mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiT1RFd05HRmtaamN3WXpBMyIsInQiOiI5dEVMbHhkTTNQWjl1dWtNYlV0WHVxcnNwNmREc1Q3bDMzQ0pLNWVCNmJITzRWRFlcL3c5R2E2MlhXR3lUR3lRYTJ1dnZlcUZsTTh5aXZvQ25odDBKM1NlWGlvUXlJdEZsTmFaT25jaytUZXI2NDZJdDNSdTRZUWJCcUo1cUZWSGVtMEdXeDRUbVRJalJCaEtldHg4dzRRPT0ifQ%3D%3D

Austin Passes Lawless "Freedom City" 
Resolutions to Evade Texas Anti-Sanctuary Law

{ fairus.org/ } ~ Long one of the country’s first sanctuary cities, liberal Austin has now come up with a new “too-clever-by-half” scheme... to try to get around Texas’s 2017 anti-sanctuary law, SB 4. Called “Freedom City,” it essentially amounts to protecting illegal aliens by eliminating law enforcement altogether for numerous crimes. Austin’s “Freedom City” policy consists of two resolutions passed by its city council on June 14. The first resolution requires officers who ask about people’s immigration status to tell them they don’t have to answer, i.e., that they have a “right to remain silent.” This “immigration version” of the Miranda warnings used in criminal cases has not been upheld by any court to be legally required until someone is formally placed in deportation proceedings. Indeed, the Board of Immigration Appeals held in 2011 that Miranda warnings or something like them are often not necessary to use someone’s incriminating statements in immigration court. The second resolution “directs the City Manager to work with the Police Chief to take the steps necessary and appropriate to eliminate the use of discretionary arrests for non-violent misdemeanors,” effectively forcing officers not to make custodial arrests and book people into jail for those crimes. The motive is obvious: when someone’s released with a warning or a written citation/summons rather than going to jail, they’re far less likely to be brought to the attention of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for possible deportation. But non-violent misdemeanors in Texas aren’t necessarily unserious: they include almost all traffic offenses including  Driving While Intoxicated, as well as things like Harassment,  Pimping,  Carrying a Firearm Without a Permit, Criminal Trespass, Criminal Mischief (vandalism) of up to $2500 in property damage, and Theft of up to $1500, just to name a few...

{ freedomoutpost.com } ~ We have theorized that former Attorney General Loretta Lynch more than likely engaged in corrupt behavior... when she met former President liar-Bill Clinton on the tarmac prior to the 2016 elections, in which she claims that they talked about golf and grandchildren, but what we are learning now is that a new report is out that claims the FBI is unwilling to provide members of Congress with top security clearance intelligence that the liar-nObama AG interfered in the FBI's investigation of liar-Hillary Clinton's illegal email server. Paul Sperry with Real Clear Investigations writes: The FBI had little problem leaking “unverified" dirt from Russian sources on Donald Trump and his campaign aides – and even basing FISA wiretaps on it. But according to the Justice Department’s inspector general, the bureau is refusing to allow even members of Congress with top security clearance to see intercepted material alleging political interference by President liar-nObama’s attorney general, Loretta Lynch. That material – which has been outlined in press reports – consists of unverified accounts intercepted from putative Russian sources in which the head of the dummycrats-Democratic National Committee allegedly implicates the liar-Hillary Clinton campaign and Lynch in a secret deal to fix the liar-Clinton email investigation...   https://freedomoutpost.com/fbi-wont-provide-congress-documents-alleging-loretta-lynch-interfered-in-clinton-email-investigation/

{ townhall.com } ~ I'm still ticked off at him for not building the wall, but THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP, FOR POINTING OUT THAT mad-MAXINE WATERS HAS A LOW I.Q.! 

And there's more great news! Contrary to every single New York Times editorial and opinion piece on the president's "Muslim ban," this week, the Supreme Court upheld the ban. 

Or, as a Times op-ed put it back on Jan. 27, 2017: "The order is illegal. More than 50 years ago, Congress outlawed such discrimination against immigrants based on national origin. ..." -- "Trump's Immigration Ban Is Illegal," by David J. Bier, immigration policy analyst at the Cato Institute. 

For your immigration news, New York Times, maybe stop thinking you're getting "both sides" by going to open borders activists at the International Refugee Assistance Project and, for the opposing view, open borders activists at the Cato Institute. 

Last week, in a column that does not misstate the facts and the law about immigration, I covered some typical asylum and refugee admissions to our country, including Beatrice Munyenyezi. She was the Rwandan who got into our country by claiming to be a victim of the genocide that killed nearly a million people, even though she had helped orchestrate it. 

Munyenyezi wasn't the only participant in the Rwandan genocide who's gotten in as a victim and then been unmasked as a perpetrator. So far, nearly 400 Rwandans granted special refugee status have been convicted of lying on visa applications about their role in the genocide. Great job, U.S. refugee admissions officials! 

Courts are dealing with so many genocidal Rwandans who came to America as "refugees" that just last Friday, a federal appeals court upheld the conviction of another one, Gervais "Ken" Ngombwa, who not only lied about his participation in the genocide, but also about his family relationships. You can't get anything past our State Department!

Aside from our immigration authorities missing little things like the Rwandan genocide, what is the argument for taking in millions of people from backward cultures, hotbeds of real racism, pederasty, misogyny -- as opposed to the "microaggressions" that are the bane of our culture? 

It's one thing to use quotas as a response to slavery and Jim Crow in our own country, but why do we have to have an immigration quota for "people who don't live here, have never seen an indoor toilet, and rape little girls for sport"? 

Liberals act as if they are striking a blow for feminism by importing desperate women from misogynistic cultures to America. But, even to the extent they're telling the truth, the women aren't always victims only. They're often co-conspirators. 

Remember the Baby Hope case? In 1991, a little girl's unidentified body was found in an Igloo cooler alongside the Henry Hudson Parkway. Twenty-two years later, the New York City police finally solved the case: The perpetrator turned out to be Baby Hope's illegal alien cousin from Mexico, who had raped and killed her when she was 4 years old. 

And how had he escaped justice for 22 years? The girl's mother and aunt, also illegals, helped orchestrate the cover-up. The aunt helped dispose of the body and the girl’s mother never said a peep, despite admitting that she suspected all along that the corpse in the cooler was her unreported, missing daughter. 

Hmong girls in Minnesota are regularly gang raped by Hmong men, but the Hmong community -- even the girls' mothers -- blame the rape victims, and the attacks go unreported. These aren't cultures of strong women and criminal men. It's more like criminal men and complicit women. 

One of the major articles reporting on the Hmong rape culture, helping diversify America, was Pam Louwagie and Dan Browning's "Shamed Into Silence," published in the Minneapolis Star Tribune in 2005. It used to be here: startribune.com/local/11594631.html. The detailed story won first place for In Depth Reporting from the Minnesota Society of Professional Journalists, but it seems to have disappeared from the Tribune's website. Welcome to the Soviet Union! 

In San Francisco, we had the young Indian sex slaves of pederast Lakireddy Bali Reddy testifying on his behalf. Once he was finally busted -- not by our fantastic "democracy dies in darkness" mainstream media, but by a local high school newspaper -- we found out his child rape victims thought they deserved it. They could not be coaxed to testify against him. Some took the stand on his behalf. They were all given asylum. We didn't change them; they just moved here, without altering their belief in human slavery or the caste system one iota. 

Americans are told we have to understand that it's part of their native cultures. 

Exactly! It's their culture. We're not rescuing anybody; we're bringing in diseased cultures. The alleged refugees don't float above and apart from their societies. Feminists may see the world as the Boy team versus the Girl team, but in reality, it's the Civilized team versus the Primitive team. Virtually every woman outside of the First World lives in an abusive society. We can't take them all in. 

How did violent, backward, misogynistic cultures become our problem? Did we take a vote and agree to be the world's charity ward? 

dummycrats-Democrats who claim to be defenders of the weak, the marginal and vulnerable are happy to toss our safe, functioning country aside -- as long as they can wreck America and get their housework done at the same time!. The left's central political philosophy is based on resentment toward historical America. 

They're just like the feminists willing to forgive liar-Bill Clinton for rape. Well, you know, taking in the totality of his contributions ...Today, it's: Who cares what kind of society we become -- provided America is no more. 

Primitive people will not stop trying to come here until America is no different from Calcutta. Then, liberals' work will be done. And there will be no charity ward left for anyone to flee to. 

That's how much liberals care about women and children.

The dummycrats-Democratic Party is Not Democratic! 
{ ipatriot.com } ~ The dummycrats-Democratic Party is Not Democratic!... Recently I noticed an alarming trend happening in American current events. The only way I know to describe it is that the better things get in America economically, the more Un-American the dummycrats- Democrats become. Some of the good news: We are seeing a significant improvement in the U.S. GDP growth rate. We need a steady 3% annual GDP growth rate for America to be sound financially. The liar-nObama Administration did not achieve this any year during his eight years in office. Our GDP growth rate has steadily improved since President Trump was sworn in. It is now approaching 4% and some well-known economist are predicting that we may actually see an unheard of 5%! Our unemployment rate is less than 4%, with record levels of employment in our minority populations. And this is without the Trump Administration “cooking the books” like the liar-nObama Administration did. The liar-nObama Administration actually declared that the unemployment rate dropped during a month when there were virtually no new jobs created. In fact the growth in our economy is so strong now that many companies have jobs that they cannot fill. Many of these companies are running radio ads on major market radio stations announcing job fairs at their company locations with “on the spot job offers” and signing bonuses...  https://ipatriot.com/the-democratic-party-is-not-democratic/

Geffroy said in a note seen by Le Monde: “They recruited and trained orphans, and then you also have the wives of ISIS militants whose children have been indoctrinated with the group’s ideology and who have been taught to hate the US-led coalition and Europe. “I know that future external operations will be carried out by children who grew up in the area and who, after adolescence, will be sent to the West, to Europe, to carry out suicide missions.” He added sending child soldiers off once they become teenagers would make it practically impossible for counter-terrorism officials to use facial recognition technology to identify them...   https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/981655/isis-child-soldiers-terror-attack-eu-france

{ washingtonexaminer.com } ~ Justice Anthony Kennedy’s retirement announcement this week placed President Trump in the familiar position of having to find a reliably conservative Supreme Court nominee... and guide the person through a grueling confirmation battle. Because the Trump White House has done this before, it’s expected to follow the same model: Bring in the same helping hands, and ensure the process goes just as smoothly as it did last spring for Justice Neil Gorsuch. But the political landscape is different this time around, and some Republican allies have privately expressed concerns about the president’s ability to navigate the situation. Sen. rino-John McCain, R-Ariz., has been battling cancer back home for months and could leave the GOP in a bind if he doesn’t make it back to Washington for a vote that is expected to take place this fall. A slew of vulnerable Senate dummycrats-Democrats are facing pressure from progressives to oppose Trump’s nominee, even though a show of bipartisanship could boost them in their re-election races. And with anti-abortion conservatives itching to undo abortion protections, at least two centrist Republican senators — rino-Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, and rino-Susan Collins, R-Maine — are expected to be a tough sell on any pro-life nominee...  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house-moving-rapidly-to-prepare-for-supreme-court-battle?utm_source=WEX_News%20Brief_06/30/2018&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WEX_News%20Brief

Nearly 600 People Arrested in 
DC Protesting Trump Immigration Policy 
{ westernjournal.com } ~ Capitol Police arrested nearly 600 people (Good)... Thursday after hundreds of loudly chanting women demonstrated inside a Senate office building against President Donald Trump’s treatment of migrant families. Among them was a Washington state congresswoman, the lawmaker said on Twitter. The protests came as demonstrations occurred around the country over the Trump administration’s policy of separating immigrant families. They offered a glimpse of what might happen on Saturday when rallies are planned coast to coast. Amid unrelenting daily images of distraught immigrant children separated from parents and herded into fenced enclosures, women sat on the floor of the Senate Hart Office building’s 90-foot-high atrium. Seated around Alexander Calder’s black metallic “Mountain and Clouds” sculpture, they shouted slogans and cheered for a handful of fist-pumping lawmakers — all dummycrats-Democrats — who waded into the crowd...These people have been feed false claims.   https://www.westernjournal.com/hundreds-arrested-in-dc-protesting-trump-immigration-policy/?utm_source=Email&utm_medium=patriotupdate&utm_campaign=dailyam&utm_content=libertyalliance

Congrats, Trump Voters. You've Been Vindicated


by MARC A. THIESSEN:  For those conservatives who voted for Donald Trump because of the Supreme Court, congratulations: You’ve been vindicated.

               Had liar-Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election, she would have replaced the late conservative Justice Antonin Scalia with a liberal jurist — giving the Supreme Court a left-wing activist majority for a generation. Because Trump won, Neil M. Gorsuch was confirmed to replace Scalia, securing the Court’s 5-4 conservative majority.
               This week, the dividends of that appointment for conservatives were apparent in two landmark conservative rulings. In National Institute of Family Life Advocates v. Becerra, the High Court ruled that the state of California cannot force crisis pregnancy centers to advertise access to abortion to their clients, in violation of the owners’ conscience. And in Janus v. AFSCME, the Court ruled that public workers cannot be forced pay union dues to support public policies with which they fundamentally disagree. These were critical 5-4 rulings that buttressed the First Amendment freedoms of all Americans.
               Trump was able to preserve the status quo after Scalia’s passing. But now, with the news that Justice Anthony M. Kennedy is retiring, Trump has a chance to do something much bigger: He can not only preserve but also expand the Court’s conservative majority. If he replaces Kennedy — a swing vote who often joined the Court’s liberal bloc on important matters — with a reliable conservative in the mold of Scalia and Gorsuch, the president may have transformed the Court for a generation.
               To do this, Trump will have to break the mold of his Republican predecessors. Over the past three decades, presidents from his party have picked seven justices, and several have turned out to be disappointments to conservatives. President Ronald Reagan picked three justices (Sandra Day O'Connor, Scalia and Kennedy), but only one, Scalia, was a consistent conservative. President George H.W. Bush picked one solid conservative (Clarence Thomas) and one (David Souter) who was not. George W. Bush did better, appointing two conservatives, Samuel A. Alito Jr. and John G. Roberts Jr. But even Roberts disappointed conservatives when he cast the deciding vote to uphold the Affordable Care Act in a stroke of judicial activism. If Trump picks not one, but two reliable conservative justices, he will secure the best record of Supreme Court appointments by any modern Republican president.
               Liberals understand exactly what is at stake. That means whomever Trump picks will face a barrage of attacks unprecedented even by the standards of past confirmation brawls. But thanks to the dummycrats-Democrats’ imprudent decisions to break precedent and change Senate rules to confirm lifetime appointments to the federal circuit court under President Barack liar-nObama, and then to filibuster Gorsuch, Senate Republicans need only a simple majority to confirm Trump’s choice. So long as Republican senators stick together, Trump’s nominee will be confirmed.
               Already some dummycrats-Democrats are protesting that the Senate should not confirm a Supreme Court justice during a midterm election year. Sorry, the Senate confirmed liar-nObama appointee Elena Kagan in August 2010, just before the midterm elections — and did so with a bipartisan 63-37 vote. dummycrats- Democrats are grasping at straws because the timing couldn’t be worse for them as they seek to gain control of the Senate in November. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has announced that the confirmation vote will take place in the fall, which would put Kennedy’s replacement on the bench when the Court’s new term begins on the first Monday in October. Pity the dummycrats-Democratic senators such as Joe Manchin III (WV), Heidi Heitkamp (ND), Jon Tester (MT), Claire McCaskill (MO), and Joe Donnelly (IN), who are running for reelection in states Trump won by double digits. Their political survival depends on being perceived as centrists, and they will now have to spend months campaigning while caught in the crossfire of a liberal-conservative battle royal over a Trump-nominated Supreme Court justice. Vote yes, and their liberal base will be apoplectic; vote no, and their pro-Trump constituents could revolt.
               For all these reasons, Trump’s appointee is likely to be confirmed. If that happens, Trump will have led one of the most consequential conservative presidencies in modern American history. Not only is Trump expanding the conservative Supreme Court majority, he is also moving at record pace to fill the federal appeals courts with young conservative judges who will preside for decades. Imagine if it were liar-Clinton making all these appointments. The consequences for human life, religious liberty, the Second Amendment and limited government would have been disastrous.
               Instead, the choice of the next Supreme Court justice is in President Trump’s hands. So, to all the conservatives who cast their ballots in 2016 for just this moment — you did the right thing.   ~The Patriot Pos

ycn_SLZxFhAN3NiquGUhVndWj1QClrZ1G9FpK518j9F92LdUsVzTUBzO-HdnNRsnEkQExIRT7ep18xAGB1M9-JcTAHCroSU3X5KpXBFIMOok2A6UAKKnntv3xfAz__xM3coW6s1MlKAhOF0gHr7HokzPuWcU9BfHoNsWijYD5tA=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=450
by Thomas Gallatin:  Five journalists who worked at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Maryland, were murdered Thursday when an individual with a longstanding grudge against the newspaper blasted his way into the building seeking revenge for a lost 2015 defamation lawsuit he had leveled against the paper. It was personal animus against that specific newspaper, not some generalized anti-media sentiments. Nevertheless, as news of the attack quickly spread across the country, once again leftists politicized the atrocity by blaming President Donald Trump.

             The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman wrote, “What happened today is sickening. This alleged gunman appears to have had a longstanding grudge against the paper and little else is known so far. But Trump is the only president in memory to call the press ‘the enemy of the people.’”
               Reuters’ Rob Cox went further, angrily pontificating, “This is what happens when [Donald Trump] calls journalists the enemy of the people. Blood is on your hands, Mr. President. Save your thoughts and prayers for your empty soul.” Others joined in with similar memes.“
               The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway observed, "We also didn’t see [the MSM] wonder if the media’s harsh treatment of Republicans led to the mass assassination attempt on a baseball field filled with Republican senators and members of Congress last June. They also didn’t wonder if anti-police rhetoric led to the targeted murders of various policemen in recent years. The blame game seems to work one way with traditional media sources.”
               Is it any wonder that 72% of Americans think the MSM intentionally reports misleading news?
               The reality is that these mass attacks consistently have one common denominator, and it isn’t the presence of or lack of gun-control laws, nor is it political rhetoric. Rather in almost all of these atrocities the perpetrator is known in his local community to be a problem.
               While it may be tempting to play the Left’s game of blaming the lawless actions of individuals on political opponents, one must take care not to conflate the two. Trump chastising the MSM for propagating fake news is not the same as dummycrats-Democrat mad-Maxine Waters explicitly calling on people to harass Trump administration officials. The irony is that much of the MSM is more than willing to excuse mad-Waters over her call to harassment as merely political rhetoric while seeking every opportunity to blame Trump for instigating and fueling vitriol and violence simply because he calls out their lies.

scumbag-Eric Holder Demands 
GOP Stop FISA Spygate Investigations
{ rickwells.us } ~ On Friday, former Attorney General scumbag-Eric ‘Fast and Furious’ Holder demanded “unprincipled” House Republicans halt their investigations into FISA abuse... and Spygate, warning the probes “must stop.” House Republicans held two hearings this week, demanding  answers from Peter Strzok, FBI Director Wray and DAG Rosenstein about government surveillance during the 2016 election. GOP lawmakers grilled Peter Strzok on Wednesday in a closed-door deposition. According to Chairman Goodlatte, FBI counsel instructed Strzok not to answer many of the questions. Wray and Rosenstein appeared on Capitol Hill Thursday for a Congressional hearing. House Republicans torched Rosenstein over his conflicts of interest in the Mueller probe and demanded he fork over classified documents on Trump-Russia.  Later Thursday afternoon, House Republicans passed a resolution giving DAG Rosenstein 7 days to turn over requested documents or face impeachment and or contempt charges. House Republicans have Constitutional oversight of the FBI and DOJ, however; liar-nObama’s corrupt Attorney General scumbag-Eric Holder is calling on them to halt their investigations...He has no authority over the committee and should butt out of it for the people want to know the truth.   https://rickwells.us/eric-holder-gop-spygate/

{ americanthinker.com } ~ It is difficult to fully itemize the subsidies provided for wind and solar energy... Many subsidies are hidden in the tax code or are an indirect consequence of the privileged treatment given these sources of electricity. A fundamental difference between wind and solar and traditional energy sources is that wind and solar are intermittent and erratic. The weather affects both wind and cloud cover. The sun sets every night, turning off solar generation, often just when demand peaks. In winter, solar generation drops -- dramatically in areas with heavy winter cloud cover. Wind and solar are dumb electricity. It would be helpful if the erratic electricity flow could be smoothed out by means of electricity storage. But all methods of storing electricity are too limited or too expensive. Batteries are flexible but wildly expensive for anything beyond very short term storage. Pumped storage is the most realistic method of storing electricity. Pumped storage requires reservoirs and reversible hydroelectric plants, rendering it impracticable except where natural reservoirs and abundant water are present. Even under the best conditions, pumped storage would greatly increase cost of the wind or solar electricity...   https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/06/wind_and_solar_require_massive_subsidies.html

Why Britain's Deradicalization Programs Are Failing

{ gatestoneinstitute.org } ~ The vast majority of deradicalization programs in the UK are at best ineffective and at worst counter-productive... according to a recent study by the Behavioural Insights Team BIT, also known as the "nudge unit", a social purpose company partially owned by the UK government, but that works in partnership with the Cabinet Office. As the Times reported recently, BIT examined 33 deradicalization programs across Britain, in schools, youth centers, sports clubs and English-language classes. Most of these are part of Prevent -- a strategy presented in 2011 to the UK Parliament by the Secretary of State for the Home Department -- designed to keep vulnerable citizens from becoming terrorists or supporting any form of violent extremism inspired by radical Islamist or right-wing ideologies. BIT found that only two of the programs have been successful. The main reason for the failure of the other 31 programs, according to the Times' report on the study, is: "...that facilitators were uncomfortable dealing with sensitive topics and would often refuse to engage if they were brought up. BIT found that teachers in particular were afraid to bring up matters of race and religion with their students without appearing discriminatory, often causing them to refuse to talk about these topics entirely."...   https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/12575/britain-deradicalization-programs

Rude CNN Agitator scumbag-Acosta Hollers

{ rickwells.us } ~ scumbag-Soros propagandist and CNN agitator scumbag-Jim Acosta shouldn’t be allowed inside a room with President Trump to begin with... but at least someone showed the good judgment to position him at the back of the room. A better place they might want to consider is outside of the room as once again scumbag-Acosta abused the position afforded him by the overly generous and forgiving Trump White House. Following the delivery by President Trump of some respectful remarks in the aftermath of the murder of five journalists at the Capital Gazette, scumbag- Acosta attempted to blame President Trump for the incident. He shouted three times in rapid succession from his distant position at Trump as he left the room waving to the audience.  scumbag-Acosta cupped his hands around his mouth to increase the volume, and hollered out, “Mr. President, will you stop calling the press the enemy of the people, sir?” Actually, scumbag-Acosta, he might be more inclined now more than ever to identify both you and your trashy propaganda network by name. Maybe Sarah Sanders will hang wanted posters with your picture on them inside the press briefing room...

Mexico's Rising Communist Regime

-3Rtk5vaM8nLoMFl9ZrZydHhCUIjPB_TE_2x8CZj7VDpvObRYzZDAFAGOxucbUGd383Fa5qpcvp7_uLkp67TojNYZvKYEzfqyHS4GKfXc-Fd1NKV37tSAq77KV2K8PxciSHK59wUkRh3I4zlUXTxi8NNpncj2A4s7iZEEFroQb8=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=450
by Michael Swartz:  Because the American media depends on constant coverage of the race between the red and blue horses — turning even primaries and special elections into seminal events — Americans rarely pay attention to balloting that occurs beyond our borders. But this coming weekend will, without a doubt, affect how President Donald Trump deals with our neighbors to the south. Mexico, now one of the most violent nations in the world, is about to be under a communist president backed by the drug cartels.

             Since Mexico limits presidents to one six-year term, its field is more wide open and the leading contender in Sunday’s election is a twice-unsuccessful candidate who once served as the mayor of Mexico City. But the third time may be the charm for Andrés Manuel López Obrador, better known to the Mexican people by his initials, AMLO, and his projected victory would take that nation in a radical direction.
               Obrador is a socialist who proposes income redistribution to students and seniors, government picking winners and losers in the energy sector, and possible amnesty for some drug criminals. He’s backed by the drug cartels, you see. It’s a laundry list of promises that appeal to the “throw the bums out” mentality that Mexican voters have adopted, but it’s not without its critics. “I am going to vote for whoever is in second place, to take a bit of strength away from (AMLO),” said one voter who works for a government energy agency. “The important thing is keeping the economy running, and I am afraid Lopez Obrador will screw it up.”
               AMLO, however, also supports the economic boost (for his country) of offloading Mexico’s poor onto their far wealthier neighbor to the north, according to Tucker Carlson of Fox News. After all, Obrador has called emigration “a human right,” and this may cause a little conflict with the American idea of border security.
               Mark Alexander had it right earlier this week: “The immigrants flooding across our southern border, risking their lives and those of their children to get here, are fleeing statist regimes in their Central American countries, along with the corruption and poverty generated by such regimes.” Voters may ensure Mexico stays on that list of statist regimes.
               Complicating matters in this election cycle is the rampant drug-fueled crime that’s plaguing Mexico. While most Mexican leaders pledge to fight the cartels — and more than 100 politicians have paid for their stance with their lives during the campaign for local and legislative offices also at stake in this weekend’s balloting — AMLO has been comparatively silent. In past campaigns, though, Obrador has openly supported the cartels by promoting a stance of “hugs, not bullets” when it came to their leaders, like the notorious Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman (who was extradited to the U.S. last year to face trial this fall.) “The Mexican war on drugs will come to an abrupt end” if AMLO wins, warned one observer.
               At a recent rally near Mexico City, AMLO laid his idea out in plain language: “For the good of all, the poor come first.” To Obrador, advancing the poor would not only require spending billions of pesos but perhaps involve scrapping NAFTA rather than embarking on the separate bilateral deals with Mexico and Canada that President Trump wants. According to economic adviser Gerardo Esquivel, “We are not really looking for a bilateral agreement with the U.S. or Canada. The trilateral agreement (already in place with NAFTA) is what we want.” Yet last year, Obrador was singing a different tune, stating, “We should put a national emergency plan in place to face the damage and reverse the protectionist policies of Donald Trump.”
               AMLO’s rhetoric sounds eerily like something we’d hear in Venezuela or Cuba. Calling the country’s electoral prospects “so clear a danger,” political commentator Dick Morris worried that Sunday’s balloting “may be Mexico’s last free election.” Nothing should be put past a “Hugo Chavez wannabe” if he wins as expected on Sunday.   ~The Patriot Pos

ICE Director Homan Sets dummucrats-Dems 
Straight on His Last Day on The Job
{ rickwells.us } ~ In an interview on his last day on the job as Acting ICE Director, Tom Homan was vocal in his defense of the agency... and the men and women who defend our borders. He’s asked for his reaction to the threats by politicians, actors and other leftist propagandists against his agency. Homan says, “They need to educate themselves,” citing as a glaring example the fact that ICE doesn’t work on the border and isn’t “separating families” there, that it is the Border Patrol, so they’re obviously don’t even understand the basics of what is going on. He says the Border Patrol is doing the right thing, pointing out that the same thing happens to US citizens every day all across this country. “When you arrest a parent, and you put them in jail, many times that child has to go to child protective services because there’s no one there to protect them. So what these open borders people want, they want better rules for illegal alien families than we have for US citizen families.”...   https://rickwells.us/ice-director-democrats-job/

{ spectator.org } ~ The media talks endlessly about “norms,” then lionizes leftists who shatter them. John Brennan is a beneficiary of this gross hypocrisy... The more he engages in monstrously abnormal and irresponsible behavior for a former CIA director, the more the media builds him up. Imagine a former CIA director under a dummycrats-Democratic president calling for members of the executive branch to defy his lawful directives, blithely spreading grave charges against him without evidence, and calling on the “country” to “defeat” him. The media would treat that figure as a dangerous weirdo. But Brennan has done all of that and more, and it has only enhanced his appeal in the eyes of the media. “A Spymaster Steps Out of the Shadows”—that’s the New York Times’s idea of a hard-hitting take on a former CIA director who is calling in effect for insurrection. In the first paragraph of this essentially friendly, punch-pulling profile, we learn that Brennan refuses to recognize Trump as a duly elected president...

Many  conservative lawmakers have accused Rosenstein of being a “deep state” swamp creature hack that is purposefully hiding or withholding those documents in order to cover up criminal misdeeds or embarrassing examples of political bias or incompetence at the DOJ and FBI. Of course, Rosenstein has denied that he is hiding or withholding anything without valid reason — such as the need to keep sensitive information relevant to ongoing investigations, sealed indictments, subpoenas and warrants under wraps for the time being — and has vowed to cooperate with all Congressional requests to the best of his ability...

{ theconservativetreehouse.com } ~ A California man was arrested today in Los Angeles on charges of threatening to kill the family of Ajit Pai... Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, for Pai’s role in repealing regulations relating to net neutrality. According to court documents, on or about Dec. 19 and 20, 2017, Markara Man, 33, of Norwalk, allegedly sent three emails to Chairman Pai’s email accounts. The first email accused Chairman Pai of being responsible for a child who allegedly had committed suicide because of the repeal of net neutrality regulations. The second email listed three locations in or around Arlington, and threatened to kill the Chairman’s family members. The third email had no message in its body, but included an image depicting Chairman Pai and, in the foreground and slightly out of focus, a framed photograph of Chairman Pai and his family. The FBI traced the emails to Man’s residence in Norwalk, California, and when initially confronted in May 2018, Man admitted to the FBI that he sent the email threatening Chairman Pai’s family because he was “angry” about the repeal of the net neutrality regulations and wanted to “scare” Chairman Pai....

Six Potential Targets of Trump's Supreme Court

by Jordan Candler:  In a piece devoted to Justice Anthony Kennedy’s departure, National Review’s David French lays out the case for why the “the consequences of Kennedy’s retirement — both legal and political — are immense.” Justice Kennedy is universally regarded as a swing jurist. French observes that “he wrote or joined a number of solid opinions that protected and reaffirmed core constitutional liberties, including liberties protected by the First and Second Amendments.” But Kennedy also “served as the primary judicial guardian of abortion rights and was more responsible than any other justice for the relentless legal march of the sexual revolution.” Therefore, the addition of another originalist will be unquestionably influential.

             The Washington Examiner editorial board highlights six pivotal cases that could be overturned without Justice Kennedy: Roe v. Wade, which “struck down all state abortion restrictions in 1973” (Kennedy himself voted in support of Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 1992 — a case that would have overturned Roe v. Wade); Kelo v. New London, which in 2005 “re-established that private property can be taken from owners through eminent domain for nonpublic uses”; Obergefell v. Hodges, which “established in 2015 that all states are constitutionally mandated to recognize marriages between two people of any sex”; Massachusetts v. EPA (2007), which mandates that “the Environmental Protection Agency must regulate carbon dioxide”; U.S. Term Limits, Inc. v. Thornton (1995), which stipulates that “individual states … may not set rules for would-be members of Congress that are more restrictive than what’s outlined in the U.S. Constitution”; and Kennedy v. Louisiana (2008), which “blocked the expansion of the death penalty for violent crimes where the victim did not die and was not intended to be killed.”
               Kennedy’s departure doesn’t mean all of these will be overturned in the near future. Some (most?) may not be overturned at all. However, another originalist at least denotes that all of these cases face the possibility of being reversed. French ends his op-ed with a cautionary tone: “We’ve been here before. We’ve had opportunities to remake the Court. President Reagan and the first President Bush together appointed a majority of the Supreme Court. Yet Roe endured, and the Court even moved left on key issues.” True enough. However, many of the people on Trump’s Supreme Court list are exceptional, bona fide conservative candidates. It’s certainly not unrealistic to envision an A-team-caliber Supreme Court majority whose decisions will result in a defense of life (literally), Liberty and justice unforeseen in our modern day.

{ spectator.org } ~ With the installation of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court, and a yet-to-be-named reliable replacement for the unreliable Anthony Kennedy... Donald Trump will have confirmed himself as the most consequential conservative president of the modern era or a close second to Reagan if you’re nostalgic. This will be complete vindication for Trump supporters, which means it’s really the end for the so-called Never Trump conservatives. Of course, there have been so many humiliating defeats for that crowd that we are spoiled for choice. What was your favorite blunder, or blown prediction, which marked their ignominious end? For some, it must have been in March when Bill Kristol, longtime editor of the conservative magazine the Weekly Standard, showed up in New Hampshire telling people he would run against President Trump in 2020. Or in April when the conservative website RedState was taken over and purged of writers who were “insufficiently supportive” of the president. Some go back to October 2017 when a Twitter spat broke out between Stephen Hayes and Brit Hume of Fox News over the Weekly Standard’s anti-Trump editorials. With the death last week of Charles Krauthammer, the revered neocon commentator and prominent Trump skeptic, the eclipse of the neocon intellectuals is complete. One thing’s for sure: it wasn’t really a war so much as a rout. The Never Trump intellectual crowd has no momentum and no popular following these days. Consider the trajectory of their would-be leader Kristol, who appears to be indulging in a personal fantasy by putting himself forward as a candidate, as his rapport with GOP voters includes trying to run. Evan McMullin in Utah to throw the 2016 election to liar-Hillary Clinton. When that stunt failed, Kristol personally insulted the pro-Trump writer Michael Anton for his influential essay “The Flight 93 election.” Then Kristol’s commentator gig with Fox was not renewed, and he was soon accusing Tucker Carlson of “ethno-nationalism” and “racism.” Overshadowing all of these breaks was Kristol’s personal history of being the conservative’s answer to Bob Shrum, a political “pro” who was always very wrong about politics...

Can Immigrants Be Deported Without A Trial?

by Judge Andrew Napolitano
{ townhall.com } ~ Last weekend, President Donald Trump argued that those foreigners who enter the United States unlawfully should simply be taken to the border, escorted across it and let go. According to the president, this would save precious government resources, avoid the business of separating children from their parents and free up the Border Patrol and other federal assets to do their jobs.

He is undoubtedly correct on the beneficial consequences to the government of forced deportation without due process. Yet deportation without a trial is profoundly unconstitutional.

Here is the back story.

The nation has been torn apart by the images of immigrant children -- some are babies -- being forcibly separated from their parents by U.S. immigration authorities, who were getting orders from the Trump administration, which was misreading federal law so as to require the separation.

The government has essentially taken the position that those physically present in the U.S. illegally have few constitutional rights and thus family members who arrive together can be separated, no matter the psychological or physical consequences. This forced separation is not novel to the Trump administration, but its massive scale in the present toxic national political environment has painfully brought it to our collective conscience.

The forced separation by the government of children from their parents without a trial when neither is a danger to the other is child abuse or kidnapping or both. When federal authorities engage in such morally repellant behavior -- whether as a negotiating technique to bring the president's political adversaries to the bargaining table or to coerce the immigrants to go home -- it exposes them to state prosecution because of the acute and long-term harm they have caused to the children.

After a tidal wave of public opinion against this practice finally resonated in the White House, President Trump signed an executive order last week that permitted, but did not require, immigration authorities to reunite the children and their parents. Then, in the wake of a slow reunification -- some of the children had been sent from Texas to New York while their parents were kept in Texas -- the president uttered his exasperation regarding due process.

If he had asked his lawyers first, he would have learned that there is no legal basis for his official antipathy to due process.

The president took an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution. The Fifth Amendment to the Constitution provides in relevant part that "no person shall be ... deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." This is the so-called Due Process Clause, and it essentially prevents all governments from impairing the life, liberty or property of any human being on American-controlled soil without a fair trial.

Because the Supreme Court has ruled that there are no word choice errors in the Constitution and the words of its text mean what they say, the Framers must have carefully and intentionally chosen to protect every person, not just every citizen. "Person," in this context, has been interpreted to mean any human being on American-controlled soil against whom the American government is proceeding, irrespective of how the person got there.

This protection is so profound and universally understood that when the George W. Bush administration rounded up what it thought were the collaborators, enablers, supporters and relatives of the 9/11 murderers whom it thought were here unlawfully, it recognized their due process rights and afforded them trials before deportation. The government actually lost many of those cases, and innocents were not deported.

Hundreds of books and law review articles have been written about due process. Here we are addressing procedural due process, which has three components. The first is notice. The person against whom the government is proceeding is entitled to a written statement specifically articulating his alleged wrongful behavior sufficiently prior to trial. Once notice is given, the government is hard-pressed to alter the charges.

The second component of due process is the requirement of the government to prove its charges against the person to whom it has given notice before a neutral judicial official, not one who works for the entity that is proceeding against him.

The third component of due process requires that the entire proceeding against the person be fair, that it appear to be fair and that the outcome be rational. The judge can decide whom to believe, but she cannot, for example, decide that 2+2=22, as that would be irrational. Fairness also includes the right to an appeal.

The dangers of rejecting the plain meaning of the Constitution ("person") and the dangers of taking a class of people and refusing to recognize their fundamental constitutional rights because of an immutable characteristic of birth (alienage) cannot be overstated.

President Trump is my friend. I like him dearly and wish him well and want him to succeed. But he is profoundly wrong here. He cannot lawfully or morally reject his oath to uphold the Constitution. Denying due process on the basis of alienage is tantamount to denying the personhood of undocumented foreigners as the U.S. once did to slaves and does today to babies in the womb. And that denial is a slippery slope, at the bottom of which lie tyranny and misery.

{ freebeacon.com } ~ Rep. mad-Maxine Waters's campaign has pulled in $56,000 this cycle through her "slate mailer" operation, filings show... The mailers are sent out to more than 200,000 people in South Central Los Angeles and contain an "official sample ballot" and quotes from mad-Waters on the candidates or measures she supports. In exchange for placement on the mailer, mad- Waters's campaign committee receives a donation. The payments to Citizens for mad-Waters this cycle range from $2,000 to $12,000 and have come from a handful of California judicial candidates. mad-Waters's campaign has collected the $56,000 from seven committees, filings show. Citizens for mad-Waters, mad-Waters's campaign committee, runs the program. Karen, mad-Maxine's daughter, has collected more than $750,000 in "professional fees" from the campaign since the practice first was given the green light by the Federal Election Commission (FEC)...

{ defenddemocracy.org } ~ The protests sweeping across Iran are a clear sign the country’s economy and its Islamic revolutionary system are ready to buckle... The Gulf states can play a critical role in stymieing the Tehran regime’s financing of terrorism across the Middle East by pushing Europe to pull the plug on investments in Iran. Take for example the economic and diplomatic measures taken by Saudi Arabia against Germany for Chancellor Angela Merkel’s largely pro-Iranian regime foreign policy. The kingdom’s Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman is “deeply offended” by the German government and froze new business with the Federal Republic. In November 2017, Riyadh withdrew its ambassador from Berlin, to punish then-foreign minister Sigmar Gabriel’s claim that Lebanon “could not tolerate the adventurism that has spread there,” a reference to Saudi efforts to stunt the ever-increasing control by Hezbollah and Iran of the Land of the Cedars...

{ defenddemocracy.org } ~ One of the most iconic images of the 20th century is that of U.S. Army troops wading ashore onto Omaha Beach from their landing craft on June 6, 1944... under Nazi machine gun fire to create a beachhead for the Allies. The beachheads of the future, however, are being established today in cyber space. In military strategy, creating a beachhead means concentrating efforts on one area which can become a jumping-off point for a bigger operation. For America’s adversaries, penetrating our technology sector is a smart and cost-effective beachhead strategy – whether the end goal is economic warfare, influence operations, or support for kinetic military operations. It is through the technology sector that America’s adversaries can infiltrate the supply chains of the national security industrial base and establish backdoors into government and private networks. Hostile cyber actions against a nation’s private industry are an increasingly dangerous and effective component of modern-day economic warfare, or “cyber-enabled economic warfare (CEEW),” as my colleague Dr. Samantha Ravich described it. “Both states and non-state actors are increasingly able to contemplate and deploy pernicious cyber attacks against the critical economic assets and systems of their adversaries, targeting their national security and military capabilities,” Ravich and another colleague, Annie Fixler, explain. In 2016 alone, malicious cyber activity cost the U.S. economy as much as $100 billion, and analyses of the direct cost of cyber crime estimate that the total will reach $6 trillion by 2021...   http://www.defenddemocracy.org/media-hit/boris-zilberman-kaspersky-and-beyond-understanding-russias-approach-to-cyber-enabled-econom/

Although the ban does not extend to public streets, the law authorizes police to ask individuals to remove face-covering clothing to establish their identity. Those found flouting the ban — which includes Islamic veils and robes such as burqas which cover the entire face and niqabs which cover the entire face except for the eyes, as well as balaclavas and full-face helmets — will be subject to a fine of 410 euros ($475).

by Cal Thomas
{ jewishworldreview.com } ~ This year marks the 30th anniversary of the beginning of the "global warming" now known as "climate change" panic.

As noted by The Wall Street Journal, it was on June 23, 1988 that NASA scientist James E. Hansen testified before the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources and asserted a "high degree of confidence" in "a cause-and-effect relationship between the greenhouse effect and observed warming."

Predictions, especially those of global significance, should be rigorously examined to see if they have come true. In the case of Mr. Hansen, it's apparent they have not.

Hansen offered three possible scenarios. One would see the earth's temperature rising 1 degree Celsius by this year; the second would see a 0.7 percent temperature increase and the third would see a smaller increase that would flatten out by 2000.

The third scenario was the most accurate. Hansen made many other predictions, including stronger hurricanes related to global surface temperatures. "The list of what didn't happen," notes the Journal, "is long and tedious," adding, "...it's time to acknowledge that the rapid warming he predicted isn't happening. Climate researchers and policymakers should adopt the more modest forecasts that are consistent with observed temperatures."

That isn't about to happen, because, as with immigration reform, most politicians prefer the issue to any solution.

Richard Siegmund Lindzen is an American atmospheric physicist known for his work in the dynamics of the atmosphere, atmospheric tides and ozone photochemistry. In an interview posted on wattsupwiththat.com, the global warming and climate change website, Lindzen says:

"The mostly non-scientist proponents of climate hysteria realize that distant forecasts of remote problems by inadequate models are unlikely to motivate people to shut down modern industrial society. They, therefore, attempt to claim that we are seeing the problems right now. Of course, the warming that has occurred over the past 200 years or so, has been too small to have been a major factor. However, objective reality matters little when it comes to propaganda -- where repetition can effectively counter reality."

Repetition is precisely what we are experiencing in the major media, which have selectively interviewed people who promote the climate change myth. These include some politicians, who see it as another way to regulate and dominate our lives.

As if to confirm this, climatedepot.com notes: "NBC News is hyping a report that claims meteorologists are supporting the George Mason and Climate Central effort to promote climate change fears on your nightly weather forecast.

"The climate information being promoted by the activist meteorologists is highly suspect and the groups behind the effort have supported shutting down any scientific debate by supporting RICO statutes against skeptics and they have benefited greatly from federal funding of their efforts."

When the hype subsides the facts catch up. In 2015, the UK Daily Telegraph reported: "Two events last week brought yet further twists to one of the longest-running farces of our modern world. One was the revelation by the European Space Agency that in 2013 and 2014, after years when the volume of Arctic ice had been diminishing, it increased again by as much as 33 per cent. The other was that Canadian scientists studying the effect of climate change on Arctic ice from an icebreaker had to suspend their research, when their vessel was called to the aid of other ships trapped in the thickest summer ice seen in Hudson Bay for 20 years."

Numerous apocalyptic predictions of an imminent end of the world because of "climate change" have proved wrong. Their objective of big government robbing us of more of our freedoms and spending trillions of dollars on a made-up problem has been exposed.

We can and should recycle and not pollute the atmosphere, water or land, but not because it will lower the earth's temperature.

Then, it was Kanye West shocking the world with his vehement support of President Trump on TMZ Live, touting all the wonderful things that Trump has done for the Black community. Remember, this is the same guy who said back in 2005 during the Hurricane Katrina catastrophe that President Bush “doesn’t care about Black people.” He has now woken up to the dummycrats- Democrat scam and is making an effort to wake his fellow Blacks up to it...
Nuclear Lies? North Korea 
Needs to Answer for New Satellite Photos

{ patriotnewsdaily.com } ~ If we were completely impartial observers from another planet, with no particular stake in whether or not North Korea gives up its nuclear weapons... we would strongly advise Kim Jong Un not to betray President Donald Trump. For his own sake. We know he may not give a damn about his people, but we assume that he cares very deeply about maintaining his power and his dictatorial legacy. And the only path – the ONLY path – left for him to keep the throne is to live up to the promises he made in Singapore this month. We don’t say this as supporters of the president or even as American citizens. We say this as rational observers of the man in the White House: Stab Donald Trump in the back, and you will pay a hefty price. In Kim’s case, that price will almost certainly be the keys to the Hermit Kingdom. Trump took a huge gamble when he agreed to meet Kim Jong Un as an equal on the global stage. This was something that no previous president had been willing to do: Grant North Korea a degree of legitimacy in the hopes that an offer of respect would translate into a denuclearization deal for the good of the globe. And he took no small amount of criticism – some from within the Republican Party – for moving forward with the summit. Critics feared that he was simply giving North Korea a decade’s worth of propaganda in exchange for empty promises that would ultimately mean nothing. Some feared that Kim Jong Un was merely using this as an opportunity to buy time while his engineers continued working on a nuclear weapons program. Trump, willing to take the chance, went forward with the historic meeting. Kim Jong Un, don’t make him regret it...  http://patriotnewsdaily.com/nuclear-lies-north-korea-needs-to-answer-for-new-satellite-photos/

Prosecute those who incite 
mob violence -- even mad-Maxine!
by ERIK RUSH


{ wnd.com } ~ It’s one thing – albeit a decidedly detestable one – when we have elected officials and deep state operatives subverting the law of the land in order to facilitate the ongoing influx of illegal immigrants into the United States. It’s entirely another when their actions in the pursuit of this agenda descend to the level of criminality.

If I were to publicly incite mob violence against someone I disliked in the city in which I live, I am quite certain that I would be swiftly prosecuted. I’m pretty sure that the same would apply to nearly all readers of this column.

Yet this is precisely what California Democratic Rep. mad-Maxine Waters has done in recent days. This past weekend on MSNBC, mad-Waters called for groups to harass and protest members of the administration of President Donald Trump at public venues.

mad-Waters did this with great relish, claiming that members of Trump’s Cabinet “won’t be able to go to a restaurant, they won’t be able to stop at a gas station, they’re not going to be able to shop at a department store.” Waters actually employed the word “harassment,” and later doubled-down on her endorsement of this behavior after being criticized.

In context, mad-Waters was referring to an incident in which White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders was forced to leave a restaurant in Virginia last week. The owner of the restaurant, who reportedly chased Sanders and her family into the parking lot as she berated Sanders, is a Trump detractor.

Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi was accosted by hecklers as she attended a movie over the same weekend, and on June 19, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was waylaid by an angry mob and forced to flee a Mexican restaurant in Washington.

The ostensible rationale for Waters’ proposal, as well as a great deal of liberal outrage over the last few weeks, has to do with the practice of immigration officials separating the children of illegal immigrants from their parents when they are interdicted at our southern border. The outrage is all ginned-up of course; the procedure has been in place for some time, and was even implemented during the liar-nObama administration’s orchestrated “undocumented minor” tsunami of 2014.

This week, the group Judicial Watch delivered a letter to the House Office of Congressional Ethics calling for an investigation into whether mad-Waters violated House ethics rules by encouraging violence against Trump administration Cabinet members. Personally, I don’t think this goes nearly far enough. Harassment is a criminal offense, as are stalking and inciting mob violence. As such,   mad-Maxine Waters ought to be criminally prosecuted, as you or I would be if we engaged in such behavior.

It may not be entirely germane to the discussion, but I truly believe that Maxine Waters is so mind blowingly stupid that she wasn’t even aware her proposal carried the possibility of criminal prosecution as opposed to being aware of it and reasoning that her august status would shield her from reprisal.

While President Trump did recently sign an executive order temporarily suspending the family separation protocol, his overall strategy has been to force the hand of Congress in providing a more permanent remedy to the problem of illegal immigration. His grounds for doing so are rooted in prudence, security and fairness; Trump has argued that America’s immigration policy is “laughed at all over the world, [and] is very unfair to all of those people who have gone through the system legally.”

Since Donald Trump’s election, the shrill deportment of the left under normal circumstances has developed into apoplectic histrionics on a daily basis. Their fear and desperation concerning the threat to the pre-eminence of the Washington establishment is bleeding over into practically everything they touch. The bias of the press has been evident for a long while, but even the formulaic propaganda proffered by the entertainment media has become unabashed as well as tedious. Apparently, nearly everything produced by a major movie or television studio must now contain references to the president being either intellectually enfeebled, a misogynist, a sexual deviant, or a racist, in addition to the current formula that mandates the inclusion of gratuitous homoerotica, feminist overtones, the “reality” of global warming and other far-left doctrine.

When a really juicy matter such as illegal immigration comes to the fore, with all of the potential for capitalizing on racialism and victimhood, the left descends into abject rhetorical incontinence. It is this reckless abandon that has given rise to calls for the harassment of administration officials.

President Trump can order security measures to protect his Cabinet members in extreme situations, but this is hardly the point. It is the perception on the part of leftists whethermad-Maxine Waters or some unwashed blogger living in his mother’s basement that they can act in this manner with impunity, which is unacceptable as well as manifestly dangerous. My family and I were once put in a potentially life-threatening situation due to the actions of one of these individuals, and the authorities were never able to determine their identity.

“This is not about mad-Waters’ freedom of speech. It is not even an example of yelling ‘fire’ in a theater. It is about inciting mob violence. The House needs to act quickly to hold her accountable for this dangerous incitement.”

– Judicial Watch statement

It is the lack of consequence in cases such as this and concerning elected officials, many other cases that perpetuates this sort of criminality, and it will not stop until legal action ensues.

Will Trump Waste Another

Gohmert blasts Rosenstein for Not Reading 
FISA Warrant He Signed, Willful Ignorance
{ rickwells.us } ~ Rep Louie Gohmert isn’t about to let Rod Rosenstein get away with playing dumb or acting like he isn’t intimately involved... in the shenanigans going on at DOJ. He beings his questioning of the crooked deputy AG by noting his attempts in response to other members’ questions to put the blame elsewhere by claiming it was before his time or an action by an underling. Gohmert points out for Rodenstein that in earlier testimony he was emphatic in stating that he’s the head of the Department of Justice, and as such he’s responsible for the actions of his subordinates. He also establishes that Rosenstein approved the FISA application to spy on Carter Page although he didn’t read it. Gohmert notes, “You’re parsing words. So that doesn’t mean you need to read it, in your opinion. Is that correct?” The exchange deteriorates under the deception of Rosenstein with Gohmert moving on to the topic of Bruce Ohr, asking Rosenstein, “Did you not know that Bruce Ohr was meeting with Christopher Steele, getting information about the dossier and supplying that information to the FBI at the same time his wife Nellie was working for Fusion GPS that was helping liar-Hillary Clinton? Did you not know he was doing that for the FBI?” Gohmert might have asked how a mere reassignment or demotion is sufficient punishment for acts of treason or subversion...   https://rickwells.us/gohmert-rosenstein-fisa-ignorance/

GOP Senator: Longstanding U.S. 
Alliance With Turkey ‘Slipping Away’

{ freebeacon.com } ~ Sen. James Lankford (R., Okla.) warned Wednesday the longstanding alliance between the United States and Turkey is crumbling amid President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's pivot to Russia... and ongoing detention of an American pastor. In a nod to Erdogan's crackdown on civil society in the wake of the country's failed military coup in 2016, Lankford said the NATO ally can no longer be considered open or free as its government trends toward authoritarianism. "We have an ally that we no longer know and we no longer recognize—we'd like to have our friend and our ally back," Lankford said during a panel hosted by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies on Capitol Hill. "This is a long-term alliance that's slipping away from us and we hope for a reengagement with the Erdogan government."...   http://freebeacon.com/national-security/gop-senator-longstanding-u-s-alliance-turkey-slipping-away/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=c86ce80863-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2018_06_28_09_19_COPY_67&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-c86ce80863-45611665

dummycrats-Democrats Have

{ conservativehq.com } ~ dummycrats-Democrats, such as Far Left demagogue Rep. mad-Maxine Waters, have recently been called-out for encouraging mob action that could lead to civil unrest... but by most measures we would apply to other countries America is already well into the beginning of the Second Civil War. If we looked at any country in Latin America and saw a half-million people gathered in public applauding calls to blow up the Presidential Palace, political supporters of the President being beaten, government officials being mobbed in public, and a prominent politician shot and critically wounded in an attack on members of the parliamentary majority, we would say, “There’s an insurgency going on here.” Couple that with the Leftist party in Parliament engaging in a “massive resistance” of non-cooperation with the duly elected President and parliamentary majority that is straight out of the Bolsheviks’ playbook for Russia’s October Revolution and we would say, “There’s an insurgency going on here.”...

{ freebeacon.com } ~ The Supreme Court has put an end to compulsory union dues and fees for government workers... spurring praise from labor watchdogs and public outcry from organized labor. A five-justice majority ruled that mandating union fees as a condition of employment violates the free speech rights of workers. The ruling in Janus v. American Federation of State, County, & Municipal Employees overturned the 1977 Abood precedent, which allowed compulsory unionism as a means of promoting labor harmony. Justice Samuel Alito, writing for the majority, said the government should not force workers to finance political speech against their will. "The State's extraction of agency fees from nonconsenting public-sector employees violates the First Amendment," the ruling written by Justice Alito said. "Forcing free and independent individuals to endorse ideas they find objectionable raises serious First Amendment concerns … employees must choose to support the union before anything is taken from them."...

The offensive by the pro-Assad coalition started early last week and aims to drive the various rebel groups out of the region along the Jordanian and Israeli border. To make things even more complicated for Israel the Russian air force joined the offensive which spelled the end of the so-called de-escalation zones agreement between the U.S., Russia and Jordan from July 2017.

Will Trump Waste Another 
Chance To Build The Wall?

{ townhall.com } ~ Building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border was Donald Trump's premier campaign promise, and he is running out of chances to keep it.

Trump has been president for nearly a year and a half, and has not yet won anywhere near the funding needed to build the wall along the 1,000 or so miles of border that he pledged to voters. Now, there have been two Republican immigration bills in the House, each calling for around $25 billion for the wall, and Trump has blown them both off, saying he'd rather try again after November's midterm elections.

"Republicans should stop wasting their time on immigration until after we elect more Senators and Congressmen/ women in November," Trump tweeted Friday. "Dems are just playing games, have no intention of doing anything to solve this decades old problem. We can pass great legislation after the Red Wave!"

Now, it is entirely possible Republicans will keep control of the House and Senate. It's also possible they will lose. But does anyone believe the GOP will gain enough seats to pass difficult legislation without somehow settling their internal disputes? Unlikely.

And of course Democrats are playing games with immigration. They still will be after the election, no matter what happens.

The point is, a president only gets so many chances to do something, and when it comes to the wall, Trump is running out of time.

There's no need to go through the number of times Trump promised campaign audiences that he would build the wall. He did it so much that during rallies his loyal voters developed a call-and-response on the subject. They knew that promise better than any other.

And no, the promise was not a wall along the entire 2,000-mile border between the United States and Mexico. Agreeing with a number of pro-wall experts, Trump said on many occasions that a wall was not needed along the entire stretch of sometimes-impassable land. About 1,000 miles would do the job well.

The odds were probably always against Trump on the wall. Everyone knew dummycrats-Democrats would throw their bodies in front of any wall effort, do anything to stop it. And even if Trump got a wall appropriation through Congress, the politically motivated litigation designed to stop and slow the wall would be fearsome.

The only way a wall will ever happen is with determined presidential leadership. Yes, Congress has supported extensive border barriers in the past -- look up the Secure Fence Act of 2006 -- but the political system has never wanted to actually do it. Actually building a wall would take a president who will not give up and not settle for anything less than what he promised.

Incredibly enough, Trump made it to 2018 with a real chance to get wall funding. His maneuvers on DACA, President liar-nObama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, set up a simple and obvious deal: legalization of DACA recipients in exchange for money for the wall.

That money, by the way, had to be real money. It couldn't be just a down payment, or a promise to come up with real cash later. It had to be real live, appropriated, placed in a trust fund, ready for the president to use to construct a wall.

But Trump and Republicans in Congress always threw other issues into the mix. Chain migration. The visa lottery. Guest workers. Now, the hot issue of the moment is family separation. Whatever the specific add-ons, a clean DACA-for-wall deal morphed into a sort of lite version of comprehensive immigration reform, which is an endeavor that has a long record of failure in Washington.

In all of the back-and-forth, the simple clarity of the president's promise to build the wall was lost. But it will not be lost on his voters. Can Trump run for re-election in 2020 by promising to build a wall in his second term, coming up with some excuse for not doing it in his first?

He can certainly try, but even his supporters might not buy it.

Recently I texted an influential lawmaker to ask whether he thought Trump would eventually win funding for the wall. He sent back an emoji of a boy with his hands in the air in the universal how-should-I-know gesture.

That's not good enough. Trump voters expect him to do what he said, or give everything he's got trying. At the moment, the president is acting like he has all the time in the world. He doesn't.

Jim Jordan Asks Rosenstein What 
He's Trying to Hide, Why the Threats?
{ rickwells.us } ~ Rep Jim Jordan blasted Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein for his obstruction of justice... in preventing Congress from being able to get to the bottom of whatever criminality has been going on at the Department of Justice and elsewhere, apparently with their blessings. He opened his questioning by reminding Rosenstein that in just a few minutes the House of Representatives was going to vote on just that point and actually accused Rosenstein of hiding information during the intense and heated exchange. Jordan asks why he hid the fact that Peter Strzok and FISA Judge Contreras were friends and why he had instructed Peter Strzok not to answer any of the Judiciary Committee’s questions the day earlier. Rosenstein hid behind the size of his organization and his distance from the actual redacting or legal counseling as his defense. Jordan reminded him it was his department and the responsibility is his...   https://rickwells.us/jordan-rosenstein-hide-why-threats/

With a 20-million-square-foot campus situated on 3,000 acres, the new Foxconn plant will be among the largest factories ever built in the United States. It will take two years and 10,000 construction workers to build, and employ 13,000 workers when in full production of a variety of LCD screens. It is one of the largest foreign direct investments ever made in the United States. It would never have happened without the promise of the Trump tax cuts and the President’s personal intervention....

No matter which political party controls Congress. And, no matter what is the will of the American people. No matter who’s in power, they exert control. Oftentimes, the liberal media effectively operates as the propaganda arm of the Deep State. The shadowy world in which Deep State actors maneuver is characterized by three disturbing proclivities: Secrecy, surveillance and subterfuge.

Replacing Justice Kennedy: 
What kind of Conservative Will President Trump Pick?

{ gatestoneinstitute.org } ~ The two key words in assessing the President's nominee to replace Justice Anthony Kennedy are stare decisis... This ancient Latin phrase, which means let the decision stand, represents a conservative approach to judging: that precedent imposes constraints on judicial innovation. Put another way, that judicial innovation should be balanced against the need to maintain stability in our legal system. But like most legal terms, stare decisis can easily be manipulated to benefit both conservatives and liberals. Traditionally it has been conservatives who have embraced stare decisis, allowing the dead hand of the law to constrain the living constitution. But liberals, too, embrace the concept when they seek to preserve old precedents that are important to them. Today, liberals want to use stare decisis to preserve Roe v. Wade, gay marriage and other iconic liberal decisions of the past. Many conservatives would like to see these decision overruled. When the President interviews potential nominees, and when the Senate advises and consents on the nomination, these nominees will be questioned about their positions on important cases of the past and their likely votes in the future. They will decline to be specific claiming the need for judicial independence. But one area of legitimate inquiry will be their institutional views regarding stare decisis...

'Abolish ICE' Zealots Occupy Fantasy Island

{ townhall.com } ~ "No ban. No wall. No borders at all."

That is the radical rallying cry of the dummycrats-Democratic Socialists of America. Waving desecrated U.S. flags, grubby fists and ratty anarchy banners, DSA's professional protesters are targeting Trump administration officials, threatening immigration enforcement agents, and blockading detention facilities and processing centers nationwide.

On a similar note, Rep. scumbag-Keith Ellison, D-Minn., proudly marched in a parade last week with a T-shirt emblazoned with "Yo No Creo En Fronteras" -- Spanish for "I don't believe in borders."

These are abjectly unserious people, operating in bad faith, who pose a serious threat to our nation's well-being.

In New York, DSA rabble-rousers took over a loading dock used to transport immigrants at an ICE processing center on Varick Street. Genius move. Now, detainees whose bond hearings were canceled because of the protest disruptions face another six or more extra weeks in detention.

In Portland, Oregon, DSA operatives shut down a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office after preventing workers from exiting the building.

In Detroit, organizers disrupted ordinary processing and appointments at a downtown ICE field office and plan to camp out there 24 hours a day until the end of the month. "Our short-term goal is to shut down operations at this particular center," ringleader Robert Jay explained.

"Our long-term goal is to abolish ICE entirely."

This reckless, simpleton sentiment doesn't belong to the fringe of the American left. It is the center. Across the country, supposedly mainstream dummycrats-Democrats, activist groups and entertainers are pushing to "Abolish ICE." To be clear, if the hashtag didn't clue you in: They don't just want to reform or reduce the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, which was created by merging existing immigration entities after the 9/11 attacks to better coordinate enforcement against alien lawbreakers inside the country.

They want it gone. Zapped. Poof.

An informational flyer lists the agenda of the ICE breakers:

"A moratorium on deportations.

"End all forms of immigration detention.

"Reimagine Border Patrol as a humanitarian force that rescues migrants, rather than destroying their water supplies to hasten their deaths."

It seems these hysterical extremists were too busy stalking Republicans at restaurants and blocking roadways to notice the Border Patrol agents in Arizona who rescued 57 illegal immigrants, men, women and children (as young as 1), abandoned by smugglers in 108 degree heat in the Tucson sector this weekend. Or the Border Patrol agents in Texas who rescued a pregnant immigrant woman who nearly drowned while attempting to cross the Rio Grande River illegally.

If the Kumbaya leaders of the Abolish ICE campaign were limited to ragtag millenials demanding the whole world operate like an Oberlin College co-op or Fantasy Island, it would be easy to dismiss. But their ranks are spreading:

Organizers of the Women's March, endorsed by celebrities, journalists and Democrats, announced this week that the "call to #AbolishICE is a call to eliminate the agency that has been terrorizing immigrant communities for 15 years. Women from all backgrounds must take up @conmijente's call to #FreeOurFuture."

Mijente, a Latino activist group leading the Abolish ICE movement, proudly displays on its Twitter home page a huge "Chinga La Migra" banner. Translation: "F--- the Border Patrol."

Endorsing the movement, The Nation magazine dubbed ICE a "mass-deportation strike force is incompatible with democracy and human rights."

Reps. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., Jim McGovern, D- Mass., Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., and nearly 20 Democratic congressional candidates have all called for eliminating ICE. Boston-area Democratic congressional candidate Ayanna Pressley wants to defund ICE because it's an "existential threat" to "immigrant communities."

And New York actress-turned-Democratic gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon declared that "ICE is a terrorist organization."

Silly Cindy is campaigning to destroy ICE's entire 20,000-person workforce, which handles not only enforcement and removal operations, but also homeland security investigations combating criminal organizations illegally exploiting our travel, trade, financial and immigration systems. That includes international smugglers of women and children, drugs, weapons and cash.

So, how exactly do these ICE-melters propose to deal with criminal alien fugitives, such as the estimated 300,000 deportation absconders who've been ordered by immigration judges to leave the country?

How about the 40 percent of illegal aliens, from the pool of between 11 million and 30 million immigration law-breakers, who overstayed their visas and are on the loose doing heaven knows what?

And when will these noble 21st-century abolitionists be stepping up to open their homes to the members of the ICE Most Wanted list, which includes illegal aliens wanted for murder, aggravated homicide, narcotics and human trafficking, and membership in terrorist organizations?

I don't just question their patriotism. I question their sanity.

{ hotair.com } ~ Earlier this month, University of Miami political scientist Gregory Koger... a specialist in filibustering and legislative obstructionism, explained on Vox.com that, according to Article 1, Section 5 of the U.S. Constitution, “a majority… shall constitute a quorum to do business” in the Senate — meaning that dummycrats-Democrats can basically shut the place down by refusing to vote on anything. With only the barest 51-vote majority — and one of their own, Arizona Sen. rino-John McCain, on extended leave in Arizona as he grapples with what is likely to be terminal brain cancer — Republicans would have difficultly mustering a quorum without at least some dummycrats-Democratic help. “In the month of June, there have been an average of 1.8 Republican absences across 18 roll call votes,” Koger wrote, “so even if rino-McCain returned to the Senate, the majority would struggle to consistently provide a floor majority.” If rino-McCain doesn’t return, and all 49 dummycrats-Democrats refuse to participate, the 50 Republican senators left in Washington would fall one short of a quorum. The Senate precedents on quorums do not mention whether Vice President Mike Pence could contribute a 51st vote. In that case, “the Senate can do nothing,” Koger concluded. “No bill can pass, no amendment can be decided on, no nominations can get approved.” The Senate would screech to a halt for lack of a quorum — and dummycrats-Democrats could conceivably delay a confirmation vote until a new Senate, perhaps with a narrow dummycrats-Democratic majority, is seated next January...

{ washingtontimes.com } ~ A federal judge says “even a blind person” can see that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is prosecuting Paul Manafortas... a way to acquire evidence against his “true target,” President Trump. U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III made the comment in an opinion released this week that nonetheless sided with Mr. Mueller and against Mr. Trump’s former campaign manager. He rejected Mr. Manafort’s argument that the Mueller-brought tax-evasion indictment exceeded the special counsel’s authority and should be dismissed. Judge Ellis, sitting in the Eastern District of Virginia, expressed dismay at the special counsel system and at Mr. Mueller in particular. “Given the investigation’s focus on President Trump’s campaign, even a blind person can see that the true target of the Special Counsel’s investigation is President Trump, not defendant, and that defendant’s prosecution is part of that larger plan,” he wrote. “Specifically, the charges against defendant are intended to induce defendant to cooperate with the Special Counsel by providing evidence against the President or other members of the campaign. Although these kinds of high-pressure prosecutorial tactics are neither uncommon nor illegal, they are distasteful.”...

Steve Scalise and other Republicans by commie-Bernie Sanders volunteer James Hodgkinson during practice for the annual congressional baseball game.
               “If you see anybody from [Trump’s] Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd! And you push back on them! And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere!” —Rep. mad-Maxine Waters (D-CA)
               “We should rip Barron Trump from his mother’s arms and put him in a cage with pedophiles. … We should hack the system get the address of the ICE agents the CPB agents and surround their homes in protest. We should find out what schools their children go to and surround their schools in protest.” —scumbag-Peter Fonda
               “Around two dozen threat reports were issued in the past few days, primarily against Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. … Each of these reports is generally related to a specific online threat. All employees are personally contacted by DHS security if they are the target of a violent threat. … In one example, a senior DHS official living in the Washington, DC, area found a burnt and decapitated animal on his front porch” —ABC Radio
               “If you see these people in public, you should remind them that they shouldn’t have peace.” —DOJ paralegal Allison Hrabar, who joined the mob of fellow Democratic Socialists of America that surrounded Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen while she dined at a Mexican restaurant
               “I would have done the same thing again,” stated  Stephanie Wilkinson, the owner of the Red Hen restaurant who asked White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders to leave.

               “The leader of genius must have the ability to make different opponents appear as if they belonged to one category.”
               “You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right?

               "I always said about the Trump people, there’s two things they hate: being called a racist, and black people.” —Bill Maher
               “We can no longer say Trump’s the bad guy. If you vote for Trump, you’re the bad guy. If you vote for Trump, you are ripping children from parents’ arms. … If you vote for Trump, then you, the voter — you, not Donald Trump — are standing at the border, like Nazis, going ‘you here, you here.’” —former CNBC talk show host Donny Deutsch
               “Trump supporters] cannot say, ‘Oh, I’m just supporting him because he’s giving them hell in Washington, DC. No, he’s been openly racist just like we said back in December of 2015 — openly racist. If you support him, then you’re supporting that, and you are that. It’s that simple.” —MSNBC’s scumbag-Joe Scarborough

               “It is not truth that matters, but victory.” “In late May, before the uproar over the Trump administration’s family separations policy had reached fever pitch, several prominent journalists and activists tweeted disturbing photos published in the Arizona Republic from a facility that allegedly housed minors who had been wrenched from their parents. The pictures showed children, covered only in a thin layer of aluminum foil, sleeping in cages. … But there was one problem. The photos, it turned out, were from 2014, during the liar-nObama administration’s second term.” —NY Magazine
               “The original version of this story misstated what happened to the girl in the photo after she [was] taken from the scene. The girl was not carried away screaming by U.S. Border Patrol agents; her mother picked her up and the two were taken away together.” —correction issued by Time magazine following its cover photo of Trump and a crying child. Time editor-in-chief Edward Felsenthal nonetheless insisted the misrepresentation “capture the stakes of this moment.” Later it was learned the mother had been previously deported in 2013.
               “Now look, I know we’re not Nazi Germany.

               “Do you think that being asked to leave a restaurant, or having your meal interrupted, or being called by the public is bad? My fascism-enabling friends, this is only the beginning.” —Splinter columnist Hamilton Nolan, who further insists that “when you aggressively f—k with people’s lives, you should not be surprised when they decide to f—k with yours.”
               “I’m not a Republican and I don’t vote. But because I’ve been labeled as a Trump supporter … I’ve stopped appearing in public … because of the physical danger. … And I’m feeling like the best reason for Republicans to vote is they’re coming for you next. And they’re not hiding it. They’re coming for Trump right now, but they’re making it pretty clear they’re coming for Trump supporters next.” —Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams
               “First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me — and there was no one left to speak for me.” —Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller
