Sudan: Christian refugee children must recite Islamic prayers before receiving food

Source: Sudan: Christian refugee children must recite Islamic prayers befor...

Christian children in Sudan’s refugee camps are not receiving food unless they say Islamic prayers, according to reports received by sources close to Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need. A contact, who asked to remain anonymous for security reasons, described how Christian refugees from South Sudan are “in a terrible situation” in refugee camps in Sudan.

Speaking of the plight of child refugees in Sudan, the ACN source said: “We have heard stories where children are conditioned to say Islamic prayers before [being] given food. This is not right. These children are Christian. They should be respected for that.”

The source, who estimates that 700,000 South Sudanese Christians are refugees in Sudan, added: “The majority are left in camps, some in a very terrible situation. They are confined in those places. They are not allowed to go further north to the cities.”

The source’s comments come amid reports of increasing persecution against Christians in Sudan with the regime reportedly intensifying its Islamising agenda.

In May 2017 a source who also requested anonymity for security reasons, told ACN: “Churches [in Sudan] are destroyed but it’s claimed to be just town planning. The Church is not allowed to buy property.”

At about the same time, a Sudan Church source told ACN: “Churches are being torn down each month – you never hear that about mosques.”

Reports also note that Church leaders are increasingly concerned about Sudan’s intolerance aimed at Christian women.

In June 2015, 12 Christian women were arrested as they left a church for wearing trousers or skirts which were seen as “indecent or immoral dress.”

New Hampshire mosque preaches jihad terror, necessity for Islam to conquer the world

( Muslims do not assimilate! THEY INFILTRATE! )

Last week, Jihad Watch reported on the controversy over the Islamic Society of New Hampshire, noting that the New Hampshire Union Leader story didn’t deign to provide any details about what the claims being made about the mosque actually were. This report gives those details, and shows that the mosque is indeed one that should be investigated. Manchester police chief Nick Willard should resign in disgrace for disparaging the investigation of the mosque without examining the evidence. Instead, he will probably be promoted.

“Hiding in plain sight: New Hampshire mosque preaches terrorism,” by James Simpson, Bombthrowers, September 6, 2017:

A concerned New Englander recently arranged for the assessment of the Islamic Society of New Hampshire’s (ISoNH) mosque in Manchester in that state. He had noticed a disproportionate number of military-age males visiting the mosque and heard from many local women who said they were frightened by the attitudes some of these men expressed toward them. The results of the man’s research were more frightening.

P. David Gaubatz, co-author of Muslim Mafia, was hired to assess this mosque. He is a former Air Force Office of Special Investigations (OSI) federal agent who specialized in Islamic counter-intelligence and counter-terrorism. According to his book, he worked and lived in the Middle East for decades and was the first civilian federal agent in Iraq at the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom (March 2003). That year he led a 15-man team to extract family members of the Iraqi lawyer who helped save Army Private First Class Jessica Lynch. He has investigated over 280 mosques in the U.S. alone and uses a rating system developed by a former Islamist, Tafik Hamid.

U.S. Islamists and their allies in the American Left have long sought to discredit this rating system as contrived nonsense created by Islamophobes, but that very effort calls into question their motives, expertise, and integrity. Tafik Hamid is a former member of Jamaa Islamiya (also known as al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya or, in English, Islamic Group),  — an Egyptian organization branded a terrorist group by the U.S. government, the United Kingdom, and the European Union. Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri was a member of this group, as was Omar Abdel-Rahman, the so-called “blind sheikh” convicted as the mastermind behind the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Hamid has long since abandoned his radicalism and has become a widely-recognized Islamic reformer.

The rating system is based on numerous factors readily observant by how strictly the mosque conforms to Islamic standards and how aggressively it promotes Shariah (Islamic law). For example, are men and women allowed to worship in the same room? What kind of dress is mandatory, e.g. must women wear a niqab or hijab? Can they get away with a modern form of hijab? How does the imam dress? Details like rings worn and style of pants indicate the imam’s devotion to Wahhabism or other Islamic sects and to Shariah itself.

The imam’s dedication to Shariah is especially important because Shariah is a doctrine of political dominance and conquest, and Muslims who promote it are likely to promote jihad as a means to impose it.

The system also rates the mosque based on messages taught in sermons. For example, does the mosque promote the killing of gays, killing for apostasy, stoning women for infidelity, and Shariah-sanctioned slavery?

Gaubatz found that ISoNH was strictly observant and promoted all these ideas and more. Using a 1 to 10 rating scale, with 10 being the worst, Gaubatz assigned a grade of 10 for Shariah compliance and 9 for jihadist potential. He concluded:

The ISoNH is a Sunni/Saudi and Pakistani front for Islamic based terrorist groups such as Al Qaeda and ISIS. This mosque had very violent materials inside for worshippers that advocate the overthrow of America and physical Jihad against U.S. and Israeli targets. This is based on the mosque having the same Islamic manuals in their possession that Islamic terrorist groups utilize for their training. The ISoNH had material written and edited by a convicted Islamic terrorist supporter (Ali Al Timimi). The Imam and mosque worshippers were extremely Shariah compliant. ISIS and Al Qaeda would find this mosque acceptable for their training and education of Mujahideen fighters (Islamic terrorists).

Some of the literature referred to is shown in the below graphic:

A Brief Illustrated Guide to Understanding Islam was edited by twelve Islamic “scholars.” I have circled two names. Ali Al-Timimi — whom Gaubatz referenced — is now serving a life sentence for terrorism. Sheik Jamal Zarabozo is considered “too extreme” even for some Islamists as he advocates stoning to death for “heretics.”

Another brochure promoted at the mosque is Jihad in Islam. This 33-page document makes clear that the goals of Islam are to subjugate the world. Under the heading What Jihad Really Is? (sic) it states:

In reality Islam is a revolutionary ideology and programme which seeks to alter the social order of the whole world and rebuild it in conformity with its own tenets and ideals. ‘Muslim’ is the title of that International Revolutionary Party organized by Islam to carry into effect its revolutionary programme. And ‘Jihād’ refers to that revolutionary struggle and utmost exertion which the Islamic Party brings into play to achieve this objective…

…Islam requires the earth—not just a portion, but the whole planet—not because the sovereignty over the earth should be wrested from one nation or several nations and vested in one particular nation, but because the entire mankind should benefit from the ideology and welfare programme or what would be truer to say from ‘Islam’ which is the programme of well-being for all humanity. Towards this end, Islam wishes to press into service all forces which can bring about a revolution and a composite term for the use of all these forces is ‘Jihad’. (p. 5)

Many U.S. mosques are little more than meeting places and training centers for Islamic terrorists. For example, the Tsarnaev brothers and many other terrorists regularly attended the Islamic Society of Boston. Why is it still open?…

Following are some of their comments as published in Manchester’s Union Leader:

Alderman Chairman Patrick Long: “Personally this hate talk has no place in this city, that’s just my opinion.”

Alderman-at-Large Dan O’Neil: “There is no need in the city of Manchester for hatred. I know this board won’t stand for it; our citizens won’t stand for it.”

Manchester Chief of Police Nick Willard: “What [Gaubatz] wrote in this piece of paper is slanderous. I do not believe the mosque is a hotbed for terrorism. I don’t trust this gentleman’s research. I think he is trying to sell a book. I think the guy is a crackpot and I don’t believe we have those issues in this city.

As quoted in the newspaper, Gaubatz responded:

I get that same reaction a lot of the time. They don’t want to admit they have a problem in their area and it took an outsider to find it and identify it.

Gaubatz added to those remarks during a telephone interview for this article:

In response to Chief Willard’s ill-considered remarks I say this: ‘Chief Willard is a poor excuse for a senior law enforcement officer.  He has no clue what to look for in a mosque. The tax payers of his community deserve a Chief who supports them and not mosque leaders who support the teachings of ISIS. Finally, I do not receive any royalties for my book, so it is both ignorant and insulting to dismiss my report as an effort to sell books. It was provided for the benefit and as a warning to the Manchester community. What does the Chief care more about, Manchester or the mosque?’…

The answer to that question is quite clear. Willard should resign, or be fired. He won’t be, of course.

Judge Jeanine: Media interested in truth and justice for only one side (video)

New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob Menendez’s trial began this week, the first time in 36-years that a sitting United States senator has faced federal bribery trial charges. While the trial is getting little coverage on the major television networks, Fox News gave the story airtime on “Fox and Friends” with guest Judge Jeanine Pirro.

As DML News reported on August 31, Sen. Menendez was allegedly bribed by campaign donor Salomon Melgen, for governmental favors. Melgen is a Florida eye doctor and close friend of Menendez’. Melgen is accused of bribing the senator with more than $700,000 in campaign-related cash, and thousands of dollars in campaign contributions and lavish trips, in exchange for his help.

In 2011, then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D) played a part in helping Menendez to “amplify the pressure” on the Obama administration, the Justice Department has reported. Menendez and Reid pressured the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to reverse its ruling that Melgen owed $8.9 million for overbilling Medicare.

The New York Times covered the story in a 1,300 word report, yet writer Nick Corasaniti failed to provide one important fact: Menendez’s political affiliation. He later updated the story, adding in that Menendez is a Democrat and calling the omission an “oversight,” but not before many others noticed the error.

Kellyanne Conway, the president’s trusted White House counselor, tweeted about the oversight, and was  roasted by members of the media  – who humorously later had to eat their words – for her assertion.

CBS, ABC and NBC News “did not devote any time to the trial in their Thursday night newscasts,” as Fox News noted, but Judge Jeanine Pirro commented about the trial on “Fox & Friends” Friday morning.

Pirro says the media isn’t giving the case coverage because they’re only interested in “truth and justice” for one side, and reminded viewers that the charges against Menendez were brought on during the administration of former President Barrack Hussein Obama.

Pirro also pointed out that Melgen, who is charged with 11 counts, was once the top recipient of Medicare funds.

“This is public corruption. Let’s clean the swamp,” said Pirro.

Muslims Complain That The National Anthem Is ‘Oppressive’ And a Method of ‘Forced Assimilation’

( Muslime do not assimiate! THEY INFILTRATE! )


According to recent reports from Australia, the national anthem of that country for a majority of Muslims is “oppressive,” or at least that is the claim that the Islamist activist group Hizb ut-Tahrir claimed at the “Innocent Until Proven Muslim” conference at Bankstown,

the western part of Sydney. The conference was attended by about 800 people. A key issue raised at the conference by the group was Muslim children being required to sing the Australian national anthem at school. [6] “The Australian anthem is based upon a particular view in history, it is a reading of history, and it is a statement which conforms to particular values. Now, if one does not share those values, why would they express it?” Hizb ut-Tahrir spokesman, Hamzah Quereshi, told The Daily Telegraph. [6] [13] Uthman Badar, the main spokesman for the group, claims that the Australian government “claims to afford freedom, but seeks to impose values and beliefs” on Muslims. He continued; “It’s not enough that you obey the law, no, you have to adopt our values.” “If you don’t share those values, why should they be forced to sing it?” Mr. Badar told the conference. [1] There is a pretty good reason for that, like Robert Spencer has noted: “Because if you don’t adopt our values, eventually you will subvert the law. A nation of people without shared values will eventually collapse into dissolution and probably civil war.” [3] This also begs the question: if you don’t share the values of the country you are living in, why don’t you choose to live somewhere else? [14] This comment from the muslim community follow a backlash from many politicians and commentators to news last week that the principal of a Victorian primary school had excused Muslim students from singing Advance Australia Fair. Mr Badar said the campaign by government and agencies against radicalisation was actually a smokescreen to “make Muslims less Islamic”. “It is nothing less than forced assimilation … sought to be justified by exaggerated fear of a security threat,” he said. Government efforts to promote what it bills as a moderate form of Islam might on occasion “buy out some Imam”, Mr Badar said, but overall, “the attempt to reform Islam is doomed to failure.” [3] The conference heard a series of members of the Muslim community, some by prerecorded audiovisual clips and some live from the floor — deliver testimonials of what they claimed was oppressive behaviour by officials against them as Muslims, at airports, in police raids, and in high security prisons.

The conference is just one example of the refusal of Muslims to assimilate to the countries that they choose to be a part of. Is it oppressive to ask that the community show pride and respect for their home? Apparently so. The irony of course is that while Muslims complain of assimilation, the teachings within the Koran preface to many just the opposite, and history has demonstrated throughout the ages, that devote practicing Muslims, in many cases when in the majority prefer subjugation rather than assimilation. These are the exact same Muslim migrants that are coming to the U.S. in droves. There is no reason to assume that the results will be different here than they are with this case in Australia. Polls have shown repeatedly that Muslims do not hold a nations laws over Sharia law. [1] There’s of course an easy and obvious remedy in solving this issue of what Muslim’s consider “an oppressive campaign” of “forced assimilation”…that obvious remedy, “don’t migrate to those countries that expect you to assimilate”, it’s really that easy.

 Hurricane Irma and the Dubious Climate Change Link

by Jordan Candler:  This weekend, Floridians will be bracing for another tropical impact just weeks after Hurricane Harvey hit Texas as a Category 4 storm. This week, Hurricane Irma solidified itself as the strongest hurricane to develop in the Atlantic (important note: this excludes the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean). At one point, the storm exhibited 185 m.p.h. sustained winds — easily Category 5 strength — and provided stunning satellite imagery of a structure more reminiscent of a Pacific super typhoon (ironically, the typically busy Pacific is currently without a single named storm). As of this writing, south Florida appears to be the virtually certain landfall destination, but several states over the South will feel its effects.
          To be clear, this is a dangerous weather pattern right now, and it demands the appropriate media coverage and preparation. Which is to say: If you’re in the path, leave. Sadly, though, this also means more climate hyperbole and sensationalism. Those under the impression that this late summer’s hurricane frenzy is unimaginable should think again. One reason it may seem so is because the U.S. has become accustomed to a fairly remarkable lull in strong landfalling hurricanes. Moreover, it’s September — the peak of the hurricane season. If strong hurricanes are going to develop in rapid succession, this is naturally when you would most expect to see them.
          Let’s juxtapose the current time period with the mid 1900s. Patriot Post contributor and meteorologist Joe Bastardi — who, by the way, worries that Irma hasn’t yet achieved its maximum intensity — addressed the question in a May column, “Is This Really the Worst Time Ever?” In the 1930s, eight major hurricanes (major is defined as Category 3 or higher) hit the U.S. From the 1940s up until 1960, a whopping 19 additional major storms made landfall over the U.S. Tally it all up, and over the span of just 28 years, 27 major hurricanes struck the U.S. Some of those storms went on to make multiple landfalls as a major hurricane. For example, Donna, in 1960, hit the U.S. three times as a Category 3 or higher. Florida was the predominant target in the ‘40s. Consider how a repeat of the 1930s-1950s would be interpreted today.
          We already have a clue: Irma — because of its strength — is being blamed on climate change. For example, Bloomberg, under the headline “Hurricane Irma Made Worse by Climate Change, Scientists Say,” claims: “Climate change didn’t cause Hurricane Irma, the most powerful storm to form in the open Atlantic Ocean, but did make it much stronger, scientists in Germany and the U.K. said.” And climate blowhard Bill “The Science Lie” Nye added, “It’s the strength that is almost certainly associated with global warming.”
          Perhaps then he’d like to explain why the U.S. went 12 years between major hurricane strikes? Was that also the result of climate change, or is it more accurately described as a cyclical outcome? As the Cato Institute’s Ross McKitrick writes in the Washington Examiner, the climate-link rhetoric unscrupulously allows scientists to have their cake and eat it too. “The climate alarmists offer a vague prediction: Hurricanes may or may not happen in any particular year, but when they do, they will be more intense than they would have been if GHG [greenhouse gas] levels were lower,” McKitrick notes. “This is a convenient prediction to make because we can never test it. It requires observing the behaviour of imaginary storms in an unobservable world. Good luck collecting the data.”
          Importantly, McKitrick adds, “Science needs to be concerned not only with conspicuous things that happened, but with things that conspicuously didn’t happen. Like the famous dog in the Sherlock Holmes story, the bark that doesn’t happen can be the most important of all.” In the days ahead, there will be heart-wrenching stories as Irma traverses the lower East Coast. But keep in mind, “You’re also talking about 2 of the most flood-prone cities in the U.S. — Miami & Charleston,” observes meteorologist Eric Fisher. “Both flood during full moons let alone storms.” Hurricanes, like any other weather event, require context.
          Climate records show not just similarly major hurricanes but an onslaught of them. The world is also much different today: bigger buildings and populations, as well as better technology and communication. And for the most part that’s a good thing. As Danish statistician and author of “The Skeptical Environmentalist” Bjorn Lomborg writes, “Because we’re much richer and better protected, death rates from hurricanes in the US have declined dramatically. Even the 1800+ terrible deaths from Katrina in 2005 constitute more of an average hurricane risk in the early part of last century.”
          Unfortunately, these tools also give climate extortionists the perfect storm to spread climate rhetoric that erroneously links man-made emissions to tropical systems. Even most scientific establishments that adhere to man-made global warmism are hesitant to make that leap. Keep this in mind as you pray for and aid our beleaguered fellow Americans over the coming days. ~The Patriot Post

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ On September 6, Robbie's face appeared across the British media, from the conservative Times to the leftist Independent, to the populist tabloids, the Express, the Mirror, the Daily Mail, and the Sun... Travers had been accused of hate speech and was being investigated by the university, who could well sanction him. What sort of "hate speech" was that? Well, in a nutshell, he had referred to the jihadist fighters of Islamic State (ISIS) -- who variously burns or drowns people alive in cages, and sometimes in acid, or kills 250 children in dough-kneaders -- as "barbarians." You did not read that wrongly. It is now "racist" and "Islamophobic" to insult or ridicule the world's most unspeakable terror gang, who, among other atrocities, behead innocent men, women and children, rape innocent women, and sell harmless women as sex slaves to grunting murderers and pedophiles...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/10977/does-condemning-islamic-state-jihadis-constitute

 Why Is Wage Growth So Slow? 
BRoKrVDsucwowTCYGsNoji__-__9KpJLizW7WBKfZAQqpk4KYrNw0mbAtSy7XdH1L4dB-HIGdiZohdJoTH8RWvSRLvCEi1Gwm5F1tfepA-ivXIr8iZWd776teNoqrvY=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
by Brian Mark Weber:  The stock market is booming, unemployment is low, and consumer confidence is on the rise. In fact, a Bloomberg poll conducted over the summer revealed that workers “claimed their careers and financial dreams were improving — a number that tied for the record high in the poll’s four-year history — while a majority believed the stock market would continue its meteoric rise for the rest of the year.” Seems like the perfect environment for workers to put a little more money in their wallets, right?
          Unfortunately, wages aren’t increasing, and most workers are wondering why they still can’t make ends meet when all the economic indicators are moving in the right direction and President Donald Trump keeps touting the economy’s strength.
          Pinpointing the culprit for low wages isn’t easy. “Explanations for the falloff abound,” Robert VerBruggen writes in National Review. “Some say it’s a statistical artifact of one kind or another. Maybe the numbers are failing to capture the benefits of major technological gains that don’t cost a thing to the user (and thus produce no measurable ‘output’), such as Internet search engines. Maybe the data are thrown off by the increasing tendency of companies to stash profits overseas, removing them from the measured output of American workers. Maybe people are spending more time goofing off in the workplace, and their productivity during the time they actually work has gone up.”
          That is perhaps more guesswork than economic theory. To be fair, there’s no single factor resulting in stagnant wages. Of course, there are politicians who claim to know the cure, but most of them favor bigger government programs, higher taxes on the rich, and a higher minimum wage. But none of these solutions is going to produce real wage increases over the long-term. Taking money from one group of Americans and giving to another sounds appealing to the masses, but it’s not a proven way to boost wages across the board.
          VerBruggen continues, “Some economists point to the automation of routine tasks (which is to say, the substitution of capital for labor). Others point out that in developed countries, globalization typically takes the form of offshoring the most labor-intensive tasks. Further possibilities include massive accumulation of capital by the wealthy (the view of lefty superstar economist Thomas Piketty); a fall in investment prices, making capital more attractive relative to labor; and the declining bargaining power of workers thanks to the demise of unions and the consolidation of major industries.”
          Hot Air’s Jazz Shaw has some interesting theories as well. Shaw suggests that when prospective employees “go in for the interview and the prospective employer offers you $16 dollars per hour instead of the $25 you were expecting, there’s a fairly good chance you’ll take it because it’s still a lot better than unemployment checks.” In fact, he argues, “If you try to push them too hard for more money there are others out there who will likely take it.” Possibly, but decades of relatively stagnant wages surely can’t be the result of interviewees being too shy to ask for big bucks.
          Another possible cause of wage sluggishness relates to the impact of social networks. Sure, making business connections is important, but today’s young workers are more likely to network than in previous generations, so it’s hard to believe that workers have suddenly abandoned the importance of making connections with prospective employers. And while having connections is a good way to land a job, it doesn’t guarantee a high salary.
         All these explanations are interesting and worth exploring, and they probably play some role, but there has to be more than social theory to explain what’s happening. What’s interesting is that few experts mention the tremendous growth in the size and scope of the federal government in the past 50 years. Certainly, the proliferation of policies, codes and mandates is costly to businesses both large and small. Maybe full- and part-time workers would enjoy higher wages if their employers didn’t have to hand over so much money to Uncle Sam before cutting their employees’ checks.
          Clearly, solving this problem will require the type of political will and unity that we haven’t seen from Congress. Fortunately, we’re enjoying a strong economy in the first year of the Trump administration, so maybe the businessman-turned-president’s policies can help boost wages for American workers.

In what is reminiscent of the Haiti scam, five former presidents, liar-Bill “the Biting Rapist” Clinton, liar-nObama the illegal alien pretender, Jimmy “worst president until liar-nObama” Carter, and their fellow globalist shills George W. Bush and his Dad, George HW NWO Bush, all got together to solicit donations that we are told are bound for the citizens of Houston.

Returning to the Rule of Law is Cruel?

{
townhall.com} ~ Those currently in freak-out mode who say it is cruel for President Trump to phase out DACA should take a deep breath. Otherwise, it will be impossible for them to separate logic from emotions long enough to understand that all the Trump administration is doing is returning America to the rule of law rather than allowing the law to be ruled by emotions.

This six-month phase out of liar-nObama’s illegal executive branch overreach program, Deferred Action of Childhood Arrivals, rightly returns immigration laws to the Congress.

Trump made his intentions clear September 5 when he said, “I have a great heart for the folks we are talking about, a great love for them...hopefully now Congress will help them and do it properly.” As Townhall.com editor Guy Benson aptly points out, “The Trump administration clearly stated yesterday that they will not be ‘targeting’ these young people or reshuffling their enforcement priorities.”

liar-nObama, who regularly referred to himself as a “constitutional law professor,” knew better. Now he opines on social media to much oohing and aahing, that rescinding his temporary DACA is “wrong,” “self-defeating” and “cruel.”

Seems to me, it was “wrong” for Democrats who could do something about immigration and didn’t when they owned Washington during liar-nObama’s first term. According to NBC News, 2010 was “the one REAL moment of the liar-nObama first term when immigration was possible, it was Senate Democratic leaders who weren’t ready to give up the politics of the issue. And the White House didn’t fight.”

Wasn’t it “cruel” that liar-nObama waited until reelection time to create a temporary program like DACA to garner the Hispanic vote as Sen. Marco Rubio hinted in 2012? Likewise, it seems nauseously “self-defeating” that liar-nObama blamed his action on Congress’ inaction. Might it be immoral to offer false hope to DREAMers and potentially the thousands of undocumented kids from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala who flooded our borders reportedly to escape violence after DACA was publicized?

The last I checked, presidents aren’t allowed to bulldoze over the U.S. Constitution and rewrite laws simply because they disagree with them.

liar-nObama said he was against that sort of thing before he was for it.

Remarkably, Speaker.gov documents 22 times liar-nObama said he “couldn’t ignore or create his own immigration law,” including in 2010 when he said this: “There are those in the immigrants’ rights community who have argued passionately that we should simply provide those who are here illegally with legal status, or at least ignore the laws on the books and put an end to deportation until we have better laws…I believe such an indiscriminate approach would be both unwise and unfair. It would suggest to those thinking about coming here illegally that there will be no repercussions for such a decision. And this could lead to a surge in more illegal immigration. And it would also ignore the millions of people around the world who are waiting in line to come here legally. Ultimately, our nation, like all nations, has the right and obligation to control its borders and set laws for residency and citizenship. And no matter how decent they are, no matter their reasons, the 11 million who broke these laws should be held accountable.”

That changed in 2012 when liar-nObama forsook his oath to ensure that “laws be faithfully executed” -- and crowned himself as proverbial king. liar-nObama justified DACA on the authority of “prosecutorial discretion,” but, as Fox News’ Gregg Jarrett recently expressed, it is more accurate that liar-nObama was “distorting” prosecutorial discretion.

Legal experts agree DACA won’t stand up in court when challenged because, as Attorney General Jeff Sessions said, “Such an open-ended circumvention of immigration laws was an unconstitutional exercise of authority by the executive branch.”

Though liar-nObama’s words are easy on the ears to the point they lull the naïve to sleep, those who are “woke” understand that even in his retirement, liar-nObama’s words continue to fan the flame of ignorance while his policies continue to divide and damage America.

4064458348?profile=original                                 TRUMP DOJ LETS SWAMP THING LOIS LERNER SKATE

 

                                                                                     By

     

                                                                       Daniel John Sobieski

 

Critics may be forgiven for doubting the seriousness of President Trump’s promise to “drain the swamp” in light of his Department of Justice’s decision to give one of D.C.’s swamp things a get out of jail free and not charge former IRS official Lois Lerner in the Tea Party targeting scandal:

The Trump administration has no plans to charge former IRS official Lois Lerner over her role in the Tea Party targeting scandal, the Justice Department said Friday in response to calls by Republican lawmakers to revisit the case.

In a letter to the lawmakers, the Justice Department said that "reopening the criminal investigation would not be appropriate based on the available evidence."

This past April, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Kevin Brady, R-Texas, and Rep. Peter Roskam, R-Ill., had asked Attorney General Jeff Sessions to take a "fresh look" at the case. 

Despite numerous hearings and inquiries into the tough treatment of conservative groups by the tax agency during the 2010 and 2012 elections, the Obama Justice Department had announced in 2015 that no one at the IRS would be prosecuted. They said at the time that investigators had "found no evidence that any IRS official acted based on political, discriminatory, corrupt or other inappropriate motives that would support a criminal prosecution.".

The Republicans who requested a fresh look at the case were disappointed in the Trump DOJ's response.

"This is a terrible decision," Brady said. "It sends the message that the same legal, ethical, and constitutional standards we all live by do not apply to Washington political appointees."…

Brady said appointees "will now have the green light to target Americans for their political beliefs and mislead investigators without ever being held accountable for their lawlessness."

Based on the available evidence Lois Lerner should have been measured for an orange jump suit a long time ago.  Lerner was a key participant in the scheme to turn the most feared and powerful agency of the federal government, the IRS, into a political weapon and campaign arm of the Obama administration. If nothing else, Lois Lerner should be prosecuted for contempt of Congress for her semi-testimony regarding her own missing emails and smashed hard drives. As Investors Business Daily editorialized in April of 2015:

After pleading her innocence at that 2013 hearing, Lerner went on to invoke her Fifth Amendment right to remain silent. This raised the question of whether the Constitution let her remain silent after she was not silent and pleaded her case.

The House decided that no, it doesn't. In May of last year it voted to hold her in contempt of Congress. The Ways and Means Committee went so far as to send the Justice Department a criminal referral with potential charges that could have meant 11 years in jail.

Lerner waived her rights not only when she pleaded her innocence before Congress, but also when she shared with DOJ information she was withholding from Congress.

Hans Von Spakovsky, senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation, says government officials can't pick and choose when and where they invoke their Fifth Amendment rights. They can't legally give information to the DOJ that they withhold from Congress.

When Lerner gave a lengthy interview to the government, she waived the Fifth. There's no doubt about it," says Von Spakovsky. "The law is crystal clear here in the District of Columbia."

Certainly the actions Lerner was covering up with the help of others like the current head of the IRS, John Koskinen, warrant prosecution. Her deliberate and orchestrated targeting of political opponents like the Tea Party for daring to oppose the Obama administration’s implementation of ObamaCare is more worthy of dictatorships like Venezuela than democracies like the United States. In defending her curious 2013 non-testimony in Politico, Lerner asked us to feel sorry for her and not her intended political victims:

As when she cooperated with the Justice Department but not Congress, Lerner's record-setting assault on the truth continued in Politico with her tale of woe. Still insisting she did nothing wrong, she feels she has to tell her side of the story. She just won't tell it to Congress and the American people under oath.

Lerner fails to appreciate the irony of invoking her right against self-incrimination while trampling on the rights of others. It was her IRS that demanded to know from Tea Party members what books they read and the text of their prayers.

Frankly, we are more inclined to feel sorry for the likes of Becky Gerritson of the Wetumpka, Ala., Tea Party. Along with other IRS targets, she gave Lerner and the rest of the Obama administration a well-needed civics lesson in her congressional testimony.

"In Wetumpka," she said, "we are patriotic Americans; we peacefully assemble; we petition our government; we exercise our right to free speech. We don't understand why the government tried to stop us."

Though she sought and received the protection of the Fifth Amendment, Lerner tried to strip from the Tea Party and other conservative groups the protection of the First Amendment. If she needs a shoulder to cry on, we might advise her to call Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote, an organization dedicated to clean elections without vote fraud. Engelbrecht couldn't invoke the Fifth or refuse to answer questions when Washington came down on her….

Before July 2010, when Engelbrecht filed with Lerner's IRS seeking tax-exempt status for her group, she and her family had no contact with any government agency of any kind. But after her filing, she was buried by an alphabet soup of government harassers, from the IRS to the ATF and OSHA.

"This is what the beginning of tyranny looks like," she told Breitbart.com.

Indeed it is. Along with mystery of why Lois Lerner is not already in prison is the mystery of why IRS Chief John  Koskinen isn’t as well for participating in the cover-up involving destruction or records and emails, conveniently destroyed hard drives and withholding evidence from Congress. An impeachment resolution, introduced by .House Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), Rep. James Jordan (R-OH) and 18 other committee members, accuses Koskinen of making false statements under oath, failing to comply with a subpoena, and failing to notify Congress that key evidence was missing or destroyed. As they explained it to Fox News’ Sean Hannity:

"The heart of this concern is that they had in their possession documents that were under subpoena and they destroyed those," Chaffetz said. "Imagine, Sean, if the IRS had asked you for those documents and you said, 'Well, I had them, but I went ahead and destroyed them.' What would happen to you?"

Likely we would be incarcerated and not just impeached.  As the Washington Times notes, Koskinen is knee-deep in the IRS corruption and itse cover-up:

Among the specific charges leveled by Mr. Chaffetz and 18 of his fellow Republicans on the committee were that Mr. Koskinen, appointed by President Obama in December 2013 after the targeting scandal broke, misled Congress when he said he had turned over all of former IRS senior executive Lois G. Lerner’s emails and that he oversaw destruction of evidence when his agency got rid of backup tapes that contained the emails.

Lying to Congress and destruction of evidence under subpoena are federal crimes, and that includes the arrogeant Mr. Koskinen, who is just one example of being an Obama donor can get you a good job with the administration. As

Investor’s Business Daily noted:

Certainly it might be argued that Koskinen's current position is owed to four decades of being a prodigious Democratic donor.

Koskinen has contributed to every Democratic presidential candidate since 1980, including $2,300 to Obama in 2008, and $5,000 to Obama in 2012.

Of course, being an Obama donor with a government job in and of itself is not a crime, but how Koskinen has used that job is positively criminal. Koskinen once confessed before Congress that obeying the law was a difficult task for him and Lerner:

Whenever we can, we follow the law," IRS chief John Koskinen recently told the House Ways and Committee in a Freudian slip of the truth that says it all.

It is worth noting that one of the charges in the impeachment of Richard Nixon in the Watergate scandal was just considering the use of the IRS for political purposes. People went to jail in Watergate for participating in and covering up a crime. So to should John Koskinen, along with Lois Lerner.

How can you drain the swamp and let the lizards slither away>.

When President Barack liar-nObama signed numerous executive orders attempting to set forth the conditions under which illegally immigrated adults whose children were born here could lawfully remain here, he was challenged in federal court and he lost. Sessions believes that the government would lose again if it declined to deport those who came here illegally as babies and young children.

Here is the back story.

Shortly after President liar-n Obama formalized two programs, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (commonly known as DACA) and Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (commonly, DAPA), in a series of executive orders, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit ruled that DAPA -- the orders protecting undocumented immigrants who are the parents of children born here -- was unconstitutional.

Before signing his executive orders, liar-nObama tried to persuade Congress to amend federal immigration laws so as to permit those who came here illegally and bore children here and those who came here illegally as infants to remain here with work permits, high school diplomas, Social Security numbers, jobs and other indicia of stability and permanence. After Congress declined to vote on the liar-nObama proposals, he authored his now-famous DACA and DAPA executive orders. He basically decided to do on his own what Congress had declined to do legislatively.

But liar-nObama's executive orders were not novel; they merely formalized what every president since Ronald Reagan -- including President Donald Trump -- has effectively done. Each has declined to deport undocumented immigrants who bore children here or who were brought here as young children. President liar-nObama alone showed the courage to put this in writing, thereby giving immigrants notice of what they need to do to avoid deportation and the government notice of whose deportations should not occur.

Numerous states challenged liar-nObama's DAPA orders in federal court. The states argued that because they are required to provide a social safety net -- hospital emergency rooms, public schools, financial assistance for the poor, etc. -- for everyone within their borders, whether there lawfully or unlawfully, DAPA was increasing their financial burden beyond their ability or will to pay. Stated differently, they argued that the president alone was effectively compelling these states to spend state tax dollars against the will of elected state officials. The states also argued that DAPA was such a substantial deviation from the immigration statutes that Congress had written that it amounted to the president's rewriting the law and thereby usurping the constitutional powers of Congress.

A federal district judge agreed with the states, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit affirmed that ruling. That court held that by increasing the financial burden on states against the will of the elected officials of the states, the president had violated the Guarantee Clause of the Constitution -- which guarantees a representative form of government in the states, not one in which a federal official can tell state officials how to spend state tax dollars.

It also ruled that by enforcing his executive orders instead of the laws as Congress wrote them -- those laws mandate deportation for all who came here illegally, no matter their age or family status -- the president was failing to take care that all federal laws be enforced. That behavior, the court ruled, violated the Take Care Clause of the Constitution, which compels the president to enforce federal laws as they were written, not as he might wish them to be.

The Supreme Court declined to intervene by a 4-4 vote, thereby permitting the 5th Circuit decision to stand undisturbed.

When Sessions announced this week that DACA will not be followed after March 5, 2018, he said he is confident that DACA is unconstitutional for the same reasons that the courts found DAPA to be unconstitutional. Yet there are moral, constitutional, legal and economic arguments on this that will be an obstacle to the cancellation of this long-standing program.

Morally, most of the beneficiaries of DACA are fully Americanized young adults who know no other life but what they have here and have no roots in the countries of their births. Many are serving the U.S. in the military. Constitutionally, DACA has effectively been in place since 1986, and 800,000 people younger than 40 have planned their lives in reliance upon it. Legally, once a benefit has been given by the government and relied upon, the courts are reluctant to rescind it, even though the 5th Circuit showed no such reluctance.

Economically, the summary removal of more than three-quarters of a million people from the workforce would have serious negative consequences for their employers and dependents and for delicate economic forces, and there would be negative economic consequences to the government, as well, as each claimed hardship case -- each person whose deportation is ordered -- is entitled to a hearing at the government's expense.

Now many Republican and Democratic lawmakers in Congress want to make a close version of liar-nObama's executive orders with respect to immigrant infants (DACA) the law of the land -- something they declined to do when liar-nObama was president. Were this to happen, the tables would be turned on Trump. He would be confronted with the constitutional duty of enforcing a federal law that he has condemned.

Would he live up to his oath of office?

 Elected Democrats' Anti-Christian Bias Is Troubling

by Political Editors:  Elected Democrats have a growing problem with bigotry — anti-Christian bigotry. The latest example comes from the long-serving senator from California, Dianne Feinstein, who recently did her own Bernie Sanders inquisition impression during a Senate hearing for Amy Coney Barrett, Donald Trump’s judicial nominee for the Seventh Circuit. Feinstein, referencing Barrett’s Catholic faith, said, “When you read your speeches, the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly within you. And that’s of concern when you come to a big issue that large numbers of people have fought for, for years in the country.”
          Feinstein was referencing a 20-year-old law review article Barrett had co-written, in which Barrett, herself a devout Catholic, argued that a judge who conscientiously objects to capital punishment should recuse themselves rather than issuing an order of execution against a convict. Ridiculously, Feinstein claimed this opinion to be an example of religious extremism. Hardly. The opinion is entirely reasonable given the Constitution’s recognition and protection of religious freedom and conscientious.
          Like Sanders, Feinstein needs to reread her pocket Constitution, which clearly states in Article VI that “no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust.” The myth that Feinstein is propagating is that religious beliefs and ideas are somehow not allowed to inform an individual who works in government opinions or decisions. The truth is that everyone is religious in that everyone has a set of beliefs and opinions based upon a variety of sources. After all, leftists still cling to their dogmatic belief in socialism, a system that has failed time and time again. It’s a mystery, but it doesn’t preclude them from holding office. Many of our nation’s Founders were Christians, and they clearly had no intent to disqualify other Christians from public office. ~The Patriot Post

NBC News dropped what the network hyped as a “potential bombshell” last week. “Manafort Notes From Russian Meet Contain Cryptic Reference to ‘Donations,'” the original headline read. The story claimed that Manafort’s notes from the 2016 Trump Tower meeting with White House aide Jared Kushner, Donald Trump Jr. and a Russian lawyer included the word “donations” near a reference to the Republican National Committee. NBC began walking back the “potential bombshell” almost immediately, issuing a correction the same day noting that the word “donation” didn’t actually appear in the notes, but quoting one source who said the word “donor” was in the notes...  http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/07/yet-another-anonymously-sourced-trump-russia-story-falls-apart/?utm_medium=email

THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INEPTITUDE
by Burt Prelutsky


For the longest time, the worst thing anybody could say about the FBI was that J. Edgar Hoover was a bit of a grand-stander who knew where the bodies were buried, which guaranteed him decades of job security and automatic approval by Congress of the Bureau's annual budget requests.

After a while, we began hearing rumors that he and the associate director of the FBI, Clyde Tolson, were more than just friends, and that Hoover had a penchant for negligees and feather boas. Not that it bothered me; but, then, I also didn’t object to Mrs. Trump wearing stiletto heels down to Texas. I leave fashion matters to my wife.

My point is that there was a time when most of us felt we could trust the FBI to do the right thing. Local police departments might not like the way the federal agents looked down their noses at them, but that didn’t affect the rest of us.

It was enough that we knew that to be an FBI agent, you had to have a college degree in law or accounting, had to possess forensic skills and still manage to get the best of bank robbers, kidnappers and Nazi spies, in a gun fight.

But that was then and this is now. The other day, we all learned that James Comey had already decided to clear liar-Hillary Clinton of all charges related to her illegal use of a private server, and using her position as Secretary of State to secure payments to the liar-Clinton Foundation from foreign nations, long before the FBI investigation had even interviewed 17 witnesses, including Mrs. liar-Clinton, Huma Abedin and Susan Rice. It was also months before Loretta Lynch had her mysterious tete-a-tete on the tarmac with liar-Bill Clinton.

Now I’m hearing that the FBI paid the guy who concocted the phony Russian dossier intended to bring down Donald Trump’s candidacy.

One might have expected a lot of bad stuff to take place while Barack liar-nObama was in the White House and either Eric Holder or Loretta Lynch was running the Justice Department. But it’s not enough that Attorney General Jeff Sessions has declared war on MS-13.  An illegal gang is a bloody nuisance, but a corrupt FBI is a menace to the entire nation.

● As a rule, I don’t object to religious missionaries going off wherever they like in search of heathens in need of converting. Maybe it’s a calling, maybe it’s a hobby.  It makes no difference to me. But when they head off to places like Iran or North Korea, I think they should forfeit their U.S. citizenship. It’s bad enough that the desire of some people to climb mountains forces strangers to risk their own lives to rescue them. But when people travel to places where Americans have no business being, basically offering themselves up as hostages to our enemies, I resent it.

Nobody needs to travel several thousand miles to save lost souls. They only need to contact me and I’ll direct them to our college campuses, our inner-cities and the halls of Congress.

Or I could just point them to the Southern Poverty Law Center, a collection of left-wing outlaws who have claimed the moral high ground in order to publish a list of Christian and conservative organizations and label them hate groups.

We live in a world that could have been a literary collaboration of Lewis Carroll and George Orwell, a place where fascists identify themselves as anti-fascists and where a hate group gets to suck up hundreds of millions of dollars in donations by labeling decent people "haters," "racists" and "bigots".

It seems that the SPLC also has something in common with the Mafia, South American dictators and Russian oligarchs. The group has secretly stashed several million dollars in the Cayman Islands, which suggests it has a lot of nerve including the word “Poverty” in its name.

● The other day, I found myself thinking about the large number of people who were movie stars not that long ago -- people like Kevin Costner, Gwyneth Paltrow, Michael Douglas, Steven Seagal, Demi Moore, Johnny Depp, Sharon Stone, Will Ferrell, Billy Crystal, Cuba Gooding, Winona Ryder, Harrison Ford and Jim Carrey -- and who woke up one day and realized they were has-beens.

It must be a terrible shock to the system when you go from being pursued by people who want to pay you $25 million to star in a movie and by strangers of both sexes -- or perhaps by all three or four that now seem to exist -- who want to have sex with you, to suddenly find yourself on the curb waiting to be hauled away by the garbage collectors. It must be the way that royalty feels when a country decides to give up its monarchy. Come to think of it, this is even worse because America hasn’t rid itself of its kings and queens, it merely decided to replace them with a younger herd of egomaniacs.

● Speaking of show business, I recently had an email exchange with a fellow scriptwriter. I had never met Joan Meyerson, but members of the Writers Guild are presently running for positions on the Guild Board of Directors. The candidates have access to the entire membership, as do those who want to go on record in support of various candidates.

So, it was that the other day, I received an email from Ms. Meyerson in which she let me along with every other Guild member know that she supported seven candidates, all of whom were women. As she wrote in her statement: “Okay, they happen to be females. But, personally, I’d vote for all of them if they were yellow Martians. They are that good.”

She concluded by stating: “For the first time in Writers Guild history, we have an opportunity to achieve parity between female and male board members, to finally mirror the reality of the world. If we ALL vote, we can do it!”

Because I object to group think every bit as much as Tucker Carlson, I wrote back: “Must identity politics infect even WGA elections? Shame on you, Ms. Meyerson. And I say that as a person who has already voted for many if not most of the people on your list.  Sincerely, Burt Prelutsky.”

She replied: “I’m sorry if I offended you, but as I stated, I believe in the worthiness of all the candidates I support. I’d not be voting for or supporting them if I didn’t. But, yes, I also ardently believe that the Guild would be a better place if the Boardroom is composed of more diverse people and includes parity between the sexes, IF they are qualified. Burt, I served five terms on the Board -- 10 years in all, so I speak from my own experience.”  

My turn: “Thanks for getting back to me. I have been a feminist probably longer than you’ve been alive, but I don’t believe in artificial parity. Just as I don’t believe in voting against people because of their race, religion, age or sex, I regard those as equally bad reasons to vote for them. I know you believe the seven women you support are all excellent candidates, but as George Orwell pointed out, some (in your mind at least) are more equal than others for no other reason than their sex. That makes you -- no doubt a very nice person in other regards -- by definition, a bigot. Best wishes, Burt”

Ms. Meyerson then replied, and I in turn replied statement by statement.

She wrote: “I believe it makes me a person who believes in affirmative action.”

“Of course, it does,” I replied. “But that’s not always such a good thing.  As you have no doubt noticed, affirmative action, as it is currently applied at colleges and universities, rewards black and brown students to the disadvantage of Asians and poor whites. You, on the other hand, would advantage female writers over their male colleagues.”

She replied: “It’s not artificial parity. In my mind, it’s deserved parity.  As I said, I’d vote for them if they were yellow Martians.”

“But not if those Martians were male.  You are clearly suggesting that all seven women are superior to the various men on the ballot. That would be a weird coincidence if it were true. I would certainly never suggest it was true of the male candidates.”

“Anyway,” she replied, “enuff said. You certainly have the right to your own opinion. And I know you’ve been a feminist and are a good guy, and I wish you well.”

“Thank you. Frankly, my hat is off to you. I hadn’t realized you had served five terms on the Board. I served just two and barely survived those long, boring, brain-numbing, meetings. Regards, Burt”

I was extremely curious how she knew I was a feminist and a good guy, but occasionally even I know when to quit.

Seems to me that all the talking heads in the house and the senate are for some reason are terrified at the prospect of losing these illegals. My question is WHAT PART OF ILLEGAL DO THESE'S CLOWN'S NOT UNDERSTAND, considering these are the people who make the law. Of course considering the fact that they regurarly exempt themselves from that which they hold the average John Doe too. If one looks to the past statements of almost all these non-representing representatives, which includes Ryan, McConnell, Mc Cain, Shumer, Clinton, (both) to name a few and the list goes on ad nausium. I live in Texas and have some first hand knowledge, Not to demean Mexican' s, but there's little or no jobs in construction, cement work, roofing, flooring, painting,lawn work, and as times have tightened up mostly all of the independent contract work has gone the same way. The State,cities, counties all have numerous Mexicans on their payroll, hell I wouldn't have minded being a flagger on some road repair for 10 dollars an hour when I was younger. The little video below makes the case for Trump and the American workers. I can't find my link for a CBSN investigative report about the new car manfacturing jobs that Trump cited, in which of the construction is being done by H -1B workers.

 Dems Support Trump's Tax Reform — Or at Least 
 They Did 
ZHks3pClcvMsz73qjR4ItREj1mplfKuM-wT4kO2BO_WItIDRSchA3SY6kPe2wF9QxRT9-JLPMrfvpM3v6hWTsn5ivzIAQf04EKJirjyC3ja_ulRFxYg8CVbHa_q_tpe0=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
by Thomas Gallatin:  When Donald Trump released his plan for tax reform, he highlighted four areas for specific focus. First, simply making the tax code “fair and easy to understand.” Second, lower the corporate tax rate — currently at 35%, the highest in the developed world — down to a reasonable and competitive rate of 15%. Third, via the incentive of a lower corporate tax rate, bring businesses back to American soil, which brings in trillions of dollars and in turn spurs greater economic investment and job growth. Fourth and finally, lower taxes on middle-class Americans.
          None of these tax reform proposals are unreasonable or controversial. In fact, Democrats have been suggesting these reforms for years.
          Democrats have promoted simplifying the tax code. In 2011, Barack liar-nObama said in his State of the Union speech, “I’m asking Democrats and Republicans to simplify the [tax] system.” Also in 2011 Sen. John Tester (D-MT) stated, “You know, I will tell you I think tax reform needs to be part of the equation. And I think we can simplify the tax code.” And everyone’s favorite non-Indian, Sen. Elizabeth dinky-Warren (D-MA), this past April introduced legislation aimed at simplifying the tax code and filing process. Declaring support for dinky-Warren’s bill, Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) said, “If Washington would finally act on common sense reforms at the IRS, we can simplify tax filing and make it less expensive for taxpayers.” And this statement just two weeks ago from Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH): “I think we need to simplify the tax code.”
          Democrats have said they favor lowering the corporate tax rate. In 2008, House Minority Leader Nancy Pulosi (D-CA) said, “America has one of the highest corporate tax rates among industrialized nations and [Treasury] Secretary [Hank] Paulson has repeatedly spoken of the need to eliminate unfair tax preferences in the code to allow for a reduction in the corporate tax rate from 35% to 30.5% or below. Reducing the corporate tax rate would help keep our companies competitive internationally.” In 2014, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) stated, “I think we all want to lower corporate tax rates.” Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) two weeks ago said, “I think we need to lower the corporate tax rate. We can’t just be the party of redistribution of wealth. We’ve got to be the party of creation of wealth.”
          Democrats have connected lowering the corporate tax rate to incentivizing businesses to come back to American soil. In 2013, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) stated, “Corporate tax reform is necessary to ensure the American economy is the most desirable place in the world for U.S.-based companies to invest. We can do that by closing down tax havens that cost our country revenue and cost American workers jobs. Lowering the corporate tax rate would put companies on a level playing field with foreign competitors and reduce the incentive for them to shift jobs and profits overseas.”
          Democrats have called for tax relief for the American middle class by eliminating tax loopholes. Nancy Pulosi in 2015 urged “closing special interest loopholes” and “tax reform that ensured all Americans pay their fair share.” In 2013, Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) said that reform was needed “by closing special interest loopholes and by no longer favoring wealth over work in our tax code.” And just days ago Sen. Heidi Heitcamp (D-ND) stated, “I’ve been pushing for both sides of the aisle to work together in Congress toward permanent, comprehensive solutions that will do away with loopholes and handouts for special interests and instead promote our small businesses, farm economy and energy industries with the fiscally responsible reforms they need to grow and expand.”
          Will Democrats stand by their words, or will they continue to play the politics of obstruction opposing Trump at every turn? We’ll find out soon.  ~The Patriot Post

What the President’s deal with clown-Schumer and Pulosi does is get rid of the debt ceiling altogether, which conservatives should not support, as well as moving doing so to the same time tax reform, spending packages, and DACA will have to be passed. What will happen is easily foreseeable...  http://theresurgent.com/they-are-setting-up-conservatives-as-the-fall-guys/

 The Art of the Debt-Ceiling Deal 
Mzbckr8YHF05HkI5-ozBmY2sOwIAj1CeyUrl-nz_0VUPt1mknlaTFHAfl8NgD3iDT8eJz4yQ1lGbi_8accFbHmzJ35aqR-uKpKLVE53H25AthdXkuSS-1nZU2IRLJSM=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
by Lewis Morris:  Republicans already have their work cut out for them this fall in trying to salvage what has largely been a disappointing year. Failure to repeal and replace liar-nObamaCare and the shrinking promise of tax reform have left little confidence in the majority party’s ability to govern. The debt-ceiling deal President Donald Trump cut with the Democrat leadership Wednesday is all part of the game of chess, but it sure doesn’t seem helpful.
          Trump agreed with Senate Minority Leader Chuck clown-Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pulosi to fund the government for just three months and temporarily raise the debt ceiling, which is due to reach its limit on September 30. Republican leaders wanted an extension through the 2018 election with fiscal reforms attached. Then Trump invited vulnerable Democrat Sen. Heidi Heitkamp to ride Air Force One and campaign with him in North Dakota.
          According to leftist Politico, “Republicans left the Oval Office Wednesday stunned,” while “Democrats were gleeful.” Understandable.
          Trump’s flip-flop on the debt ceiling goes against his campaign promise to bring an end to the fiscal chaos that has left the government with a $20 trillion debt. It also puts into jeopardy any leverage Republicans had in crafting a long-term debt solution and pushing the remainder of their legislative agenda for 2017. The Wall Street Journal explains, “Republicans will now have to take at least two difficult votes to raise the debt ceiling, while Democratic leverage will increase when the day of reckoning comes.” As if GOP leadership needed another excuse to fail.
          We say this is a game of chess because Trump almost surely made this debt deal with Democrats for strategic reasons far beyond the question of extending the ceiling for three months, six months, or 18 months. The media is stuck playing checkers. The GOP has failed to push through various priorities, and Trump may be calculating he’s going to need Democrat help — or at least less opposition.
          House and Senate Republicans have about 60 days left in the session to deliver on a list of proposals that even optimistic policy watchers say is unlikely to happen. Tax reform, hurricane relief, immigration and a whole host of appropriations bills are at the top of the list.
          A nearly $8 billion relief package for Hurricane Harvey victims cleared Congress Wednesday, with a promise of more money to follow now that Hurricane Irma is bearing down on Florida.
          Tax reform will have a more difficult path. Trump has offered little guidance on what the tax package might look like, and Republican lawmakers have yet to agree on a proposal that will offset much-needed tax cuts for individual and corporate earners with spending cuts. Mark Zandi, a top economist with Moody’s Analytics, noted that there is little expectation in the markets that any meaningful reform will happen. “There’s no evidence that investors or anyone else are expecting any kind of tax reform or tax relief,” he said.
          Again, Republicans had hoped to use the impending debt ceiling as an opportunity to push for broader tax relief and impose spending reforms that break the seemingly endless cycle of last-minute spending measures and debt-ceiling hikes that keep the government running. The recurring drama of avoiding default and the addiction to short-term spending resolutions have kept Congress from passing comprehensive budgets for years. It has also led to bad fiscal management in Washington, where lawmakers can never seem to look beyond the next stopgap measure. It was hoped that Trump’s tough talk on getting the government’s fiscal house in order would lead to a plan that would bring an end to this madness. His deal with “clown-Chuck and Nancy,” as he jovially referred to the Democrat leadership Wednesday, indicates otherwise.
          Trump further weakened the Republican position by leaving the door open with Democrats for DACA legislation later in the year. When he rescinded Barack liar-nObama’s executive order earlier this week, Trump left the door open for Congress to come up with a permanent solution to the issue of so-called “Dreamers.” But his chumminess with Democrats Wednesday indicated he was willing to accept a solution that did not include any enforcement provision. This was welcome news to the open-borders crowd; disheartening news for anyone seeking meaningful immigration reform.
          All is not lost for Republicans, and, notwithstanding the liar-nObamaCare failure, they should not be viewed as having completely fumbled their opportunities for 2017. There have been some bright spots, including confirmation of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court and the rolling back of several liar-nObama executive actions that will save Americans billions of dollars in regulatory costs.
          These small victories will mean little, however, unless Trump and congressional Republicans can put together meaningful budget reforms. Instead of buddying up with tax-and-spend Democrats, Trump should repair his frayed relations with House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Together they can bring sanity to Washington’s rudderless fiscal policy and make a lasting impact that will boost the Republican agenda and, thus, the country.
          Just for the record, we’ll give the last word to Ted Cruz, who had this to say on the campaign trail in 2016: “If as a voter, you think what we need is more Republicans in Washington to cut a deal with … Nancy Pulosi and Chuck clown-Schumer, then I guess Donald Trump is your guy.”  ~The Patriot Post

 liar-Hillary's Blaming Bernie

by Nate Jackson:  Next stop on liar-Hillary Clinton’s blame train: Bernie Sanders. That’s right — having blamed James Comey, Russia and misogyny for her November defeat, liar-Clinton has now moved on to blaming the man she vanquished in the Democrat primary. Another excerpt of her upcoming book, “What Happened,” has leaked, and it’s the usual fare:
          “Because we agreed on so much, Bernie couldn’t make an argument against me in this area of policy, so he had to resort to innuendo and impugning my character,” liar-Clinton wrote. “[H]is attacks caused lasting damage … paving the way for Trump’s ‘Crooked liar-Hillary’ campaign.” So Trump’s insults were Bernie’s fault! Who knew?
          Sanders’ habit of one-upping her progressive dreams also made her look bad, she groused. Reason’s Ed Krayewski sets it up: “In an excerpt tweeted by a supporter ahead of the book’s release, liar-Clinton compared Sanders to the deranged hitchhiker in There’s Something About Mary whose get-rich-quick scheme involves cribbing the famous ‘eight minute abs’ program with his own ‘seven minute abs.’ Ben Stiller, who picks him up, points out that nothing’s stopping him from cutting it down to six-minute abs.”
          “On issue after issue,” liar-Clinton complained of Sanders, “it was like he kept proposing four-minute abs, or even no-minute abs. Magic abs!”
          But it wasn’t just Sanders who draws liar-Clinton’s ire, it was Barack liar-nObama. “My team kept reminding me that we didn’t want to alienate Bernie’s supporters,” she grumbled. “President liar-nObama urged me to grit my teeth and lay off Bernie as much as I could. I felt like I was in a straitjacket.”
          She may have felt the straitjacket, but she was a terrible candidate who should have been wearing handcuffs. And that right there is the biggest reason she lost.  ~The Patriot Post

In the interview, the America-hating, Puerto Rican terrorist-celebrating Democrat mayor reminds voters that he has learned nothing during his disastrous tenure at Gracie Mansion. The takeaway is that he believes taxes are too low not only in his city but throughout America, police haven’t been persecuted enough, criminals haven’t been coddled and subsidized enough, and President Trump is a dangerous racist demagogue whose fascistic policies need to be fought.

 by Michelle Malkin
{wnd.com} ~ Over and over again, from the mouths of politicians in both parties, identity politics purveyors and cheap labor lobbyists, we hear the same refrains about President liar-nObama’s 800,000 amnestied illegal-alien youths:

“They don’t deserve to be punished.”

“They deserve protection.”

“They deserve the American dream.”

Deserve, deserve, deserve.

Over and over again, in countless cookie-cutter op-ed pieces published over the past month, so-called DREAMers have vociferously lamented President Donald Trump’s push to eventually undo their unconstitutional five-year reprieves from deportation plus coveted work permits:

“DREAMers like me have flourished under DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals). Trump might take it all away.”

“If Trump ends DACA, DREAMers like me will return to a life of anxiety and doubt.”

“I feel exhausted, I feel frustrated, I feel angry, and in the worst moments, I feel helpless. I feel terrified that at any moment this program is going to be taken away and once again I won’t be able to work – how will I pay my bills? … What is going to happen to me if I get stopped on the street and I no longer have DACA? What’s going to happen to me if I get put into deportation proceedings and I don’t have thousands of dollars to hire an attorney to stay in this country?”

“I will lose my job, my ability to finish college, my driver’s license and will be subject to deportation. I am not alone, either. Almost 1 million young immigrants like myself will be affected in the same way and possibly even worse.”

I, I, I. Me, me, me. My bills. My ego. My education. My job. My anxiety.

Since when did DACA become the Depression and Anxiety Cure for Amnesty-seekers?

It’s this insatiable appetite for collective entitlement that demonstrates the perils of blanket amnesty. Give a privileged political class an inch and they’ll take, take, take until feckless public servants give away their country.

The proper response to illegal-alien activists demanding that Washington act “NOW!” to preserve their comfort, allay their anxieties and extend their unconstitutional protections indefinitely is this:

Why?

Americans in uniform who’ve dedicated their lives to defending our nation are struggling to gain access to quality health care they’ve earned by action, not by accident or circumstance. Imagine their stress.

Five million American young people between 16-34 were unemployed last year and 50 million more are not even in the labor force. Imagine their anxiety.

Hundreds of thousands of law-abiding people from around the world are waiting patiently for their backlogged visa and green card applications to be reviewed. Imagine their frustration.

Why don’t their dreams come first?

Nancy Pulosi called on House Republicans to help her “safeguard our young DREAMers from the senseless cruelty of deportation and shield families from separation and heartbreak.”

Never has this Bay Area elitist called on House Republicans to join her in shielding native-born and law-abiding immigrant families from the senseless and preventable violence committed by criminals in this country illegally who’ve caused immeasurable heartbreak for decades in her overrun California sanctuary.

Jamiel Shaw Sr., whose son was mercilessly shot to death by a sanctuary-protected gang member living in outlaw-coddling Los Angeles illegally, administered a bracing reality check:

“You want to talk about families being separated? Try spending your holidays talking to a grave!”

The left-wing DREAM racket is a self-perpetuating political marketing machine. Its primary contribution to American society? Lashing out at how cruel, racist, ignorant and ungrateful the rest of us are for not bowing down before the hallowed angel children of the liar-nObama administration’s amnesty program. It’s no coincidence that the publicity-hungry leaders of the DREAMer movement are full-time fulminators in government-funded academia, community-organizing outfits, immigration law foundations and the grievance-nursing media.

A deserving DREAMer would respect the sovereign right of an independent nation to determine who stays and who goes based on its national interest and constitutional obligations to put its citizenry first.

The deserving DREAMer, in other words, would admit he or she is owed nothing and deserves nothing.

There is no such thing as a “deserving DREAMer.”

Should Japan and South Korea Go Nuclear?

{
townhall.com} ~ By setting off a 100-kiloton bomb, after firing a missile over Japan, Kim Jong Un has gotten the world's attention.

What else does he want?

Almost surely not war with America. For no matter what damage Kim could visit on U.S. troops and bases in South Korea, Okinawa and Guam, his country would be destroyed and the regime his grandfather built annihilated.

"The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting," wrote Sun Tzu. Kim likely has something like this in mind.

His nuclear and missile tests have already called the bluff of George W. Bush who, in his "axis of evil" speech, declared that the world's worst regimes would not be allowed to acquire the world's worst weapons.

Arguably the world's worst regime now has the world's worst weapon, an H-bomb, with ICBMs to follow.

What else does Kim want? He wants the U.S. to halt joint military maneuvers with the South, recognize his regime, tear up the security pact with Seoul, and get our forces off the peninsula.

No way, says President Trump. Emerging from church, Trump added, "South Korea's ... talk of appeasement with North Korea will not work, they only understand one thing!"

On Monday, South Korea was accelerating the activation of the high-altitude missile defense implanted by the United States. Russia and China were talking of moving missile forces into the area. And Mattis had warned Kim he was toying with the fate of his country:

"Any threat to the United States or its territories, including Guam or our allies, will be met with a massive military response."

As the United States can only lose from a new Korean war in which thousands of Americans and millions of Koreans could perish, the first imperative is to dispense with the war talk, and to prevent the war Mattis rightly says would be "catastrophic."

China has declared that it will enter a new Korean conflict on the side of the North, but only if the North does not attack first.

For this and other reasons, the U.S. should let the North strike the first blow, unless we have hard evidence Kim is preparing a pre-emptive nuclear strike.

But if and when we manage to tamp down this crisis, we should ask ourselves why we are in this crisis. Why are we a party to this frozen conflict from 1953 that is 8,000 miles away?

The first Korean War ended months into Ike's first term. Our security treaty with Seoul was signed in October 1953.

That year, Stalin's successors had taken over a USSR that was busy testing missiles and hydrogen bombs. China was ruled by Chairman Mao, who had sent a million "volunteers' to fight in Korea. Japan, still recovering from World War II, was disarmed and entirely dependent upon the United States for its defense.

What has changed in six and a half decades?

That USSR no longer exists. It split, three decades ago, into 15 nations. Japan has risen to boast an economy 100 times as large as North Korea's. South Korea is among the most advanced nations in Asia with a population twice that of the North and an economy 40 times as large.

Since the KORUS free trade deal took effect under President liar-nObama, Seoul has been running surging trade surpluses in goods at our expense every year.

The world has changed dramatically since the 1950s. But U.S. policy failed to change commensurately.

The basic question that needs addressing:

Why do we still keep 28,000 troops in South Korea as a trip wire to bring us into a second Korean war from its first hours, a war that could bring nuclear strikes on our troops, bases, and, soon, our nation?

We cannot walk away from our Korean allies in this crisis. But we should look upon the North's drive to marry nuclear warheads to ICBMs as a wake-up call to review a policy rooted in Cold War realities that ceased to exist when Ronald Reagan went home.

Consider. North Korea devotes 25 percent of GDP to defense. South Korea spends 2.6 percent, Japan 1 percent. Yet these mighty Asian allies, who run annual trade surpluses at our expense, require us to defend them from a maniacal little country right next door.

After this crisis, South Korea and Japan should begin to make the kind of defense effort the U.S. does, and create their own nuclear deterrents. This might get Beijing's attention, as our pleas for its assistance with North Korea apparently have not.

Already involved in land disputes with a nuclear-armed Russia and India, China's dominance of Asia -- should Japan and South Korea acquire nuclear weapons -- begins to diminish.

"As our case is new," said Abraham Lincoln, "we must think anew and act anew."

His position and criticism of President Trump’s somewhat tepid opposition to the illegal liar-nObama dictate continues with his basic never-Trump trend. For those who think the ignoring of the rule of law that Kasich and other globalists have become enamored with, he reminds us “This is the United States of America. Maybe he’s trying to remind himself as well. Kasich continued, “And we’re putting kids, young people, some now approaching 40 who are contributors in jeopardy.” They’re in jeopardy of the law being enforced as it should have been had liar-nObama not been a dictatorial communist tyrant, and having their jobs turned over to the Americans who deserve to work in their own country...No wonder he lost the election and he will lose again. http://rickwells.us/gov-kasich-invites-all-illegals-refugees-immigrants-come-live-ohio/

North Korea’s Ultimatum to America
by Caroline Glick
{truthrevolt.org} ~ The nuclear confrontation between the US and North Korea entered a critical phase Sunday with North Korea’s conduct of an underground test of a thermonuclear bomb.

If the previous round of this confrontation earlier this summer revolved around Pyongyang’s threat to attack the US territory of Guam, Sunday’s test, together with North Korea’s recent tests of intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the continental US, was a direct threat to US cities.

In other words, the current confrontation isn’t about US superpower status in Asia, and the credibility of US deterrence or the capabilities of US military forces in the Pacific. The confrontation is now about the US’s ability to protect the lives of its citizens.

The distinction tells us a number of important things. All of them are alarming.

First, because this is about the lives of Americans, rather than allied populations like Japan and South Korea, the US cannot be diffident in its response to North Korea’s provocation. While attenuated during the liar-nObama administration, the US’s position has always been that US military forces alone are responsible for guaranteeing the collective security of the American people.

Pyongyang is now directly threatening that security with hydrogen bombs. So if the Trump administration punts North Korea’s direct threat to attack US population centers with nuclear weapons to the UN Security Council, it will communicate profound weakness to its allies and adversaries alike.

Obviously, this limits the options that the Trump administration has. But it also clarifies the challenge it faces.

The second implication of North Korea’s test of their plutonium-based bomb is that the US’s security guarantees, which form the basis of its global power and its alliance system are on the verge of becoming completely discredited.

In an interview Sunday with Fox News’s Trish Regan, former US ambassador to the UN John Bolton was asked about the possible repercussions of a US military assault against North Korea for the security of South Korea.

Regan asked, “What are we risking though if we say we’re going to go in with strategic military strength?... Are we going to end up with so many people’s lives gone in South Korea, in Seoul because we make that move?” Bolton responded with brutal honesty.

“Let me ask you this: how do you feel about dead Americans?” In other words, Bolton said that under prevailing conditions, the US faces the painful choice between imperiling its own citizens and imperiling the citizens of an allied nation. And things will only get worse. Bolton warned that if North Korea’s nuclear threat is left unaddressed, US options will only become more problematic and limited in the years to come.

This then brings us to the third lesson of the current round of confrontation between the US and North Korea.

If you appease an enemy on behalf of an ally then you aren’t an ally.

And eventually your alliance become empty of all meaning.

For 25 years, three successive US administrations opted to turn a blind eye to North Korea’s nuclear program in large part out of concern for South Korea.

Presidents liar-Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack liar-nObama all sought to appease North Korea’s aggressive nuclear adventurism because they didn’t believe they had a credible military option to deal with it.

In the 1980s, North Korea developed and deployed a conventional arsenal of bombs and artillery along the demilitarized zone capable of vaporizing Seoul.

Any US military strike against North Korea’s nuclear installation it was and continues to be argued, would cause the destruction of Seoul and the murder of millions of South Koreans.

So US efforts to appease Pyongyang on behalf of Seoul emptied the US-South Korean alliance of meaning. The US can only serve as the protector of its allies, and so assert its great power status in the Pacific and worldwide, if it prevents its allies from being held hostage by its enemies.

And now, not only does the US lack a clear means of defending South Korea, and Japan, America itself is threatened by the criminal regime it demurred from effectively confronting.

Regardless of the means US President Donald Trump decides to use to respond to North Korea’s provocative actions and threats to America’s national security, given the nature of the situation, it is clear that the balance of forces on the ground cannot and will not remain as they have been.

If the US strikes North Korea in a credible manner and successfully diminishes its capacity to physically threaten the US, America will have taken the first step towards rebuilding its alliances in Asia.

On the other hand, if the current round of hostilities does not end with a significant reduction of North Korea’s offensive capabilities, either against the US or its allies, then the US will be hard pressed to maintain its posture as a Pacific power. So long as Pyongyang has the ability to directly threaten the US and its allies, US strategic credibility in East Asia will be shattered.

This then brings us to China.

China has been the main beneficiary of North Korea’s conventional and nuclear aggression and brinksmanship.

This state of affairs was laid bare in a critical way last month.

In mid-August, Trump’s then chief strategist Steve Bannon was preparing a speech Trump was set to deliver that would have effectively declared a trade war against China in retaliation for its predatory trade practices against US companies and technology. The speech was placed in the deep freeze – and Bannon was forced to resign his position – when North Korea threatened to attack the US territory of Guam with nuclear weapons. The US, Trump’s other senior advisers argued, couldn’t declare a trade war against China when it needed China’s help to restrain North Korea.

So by enabling North Korea’s aggression against the US and its allies, China has created a situation where the US has become neutralized as a strategic competitor.

Rather than advance its bilateral interests – like curbing China’s naval aggression in the South China Sea – in its contacts with China, the US is forced into the position of supplicant, begging China to restrain North Korea in order to avert war.

If the US does not act to significantly downgrade North Korea’s offensive capabilities now, when its own territory is being threatened, it is difficult to see how the US will be able to develop an effective strategy for coping with China’s rise as an economic and strategic rival in Asia and beyond. That is, the US’s actions now in response to North Korea’s threat to its national security will determine whether or not the US will be in a position to develop and implement a wider strategy for maintaining its capacity to project its economic and military power in the Pacific in the near and long term.

Finally, part of the considerations that need to inform US action now involve what North Korea’s success in developing a nuclear arsenal under the noses of successive US administrations means for the future of nuclear proliferation.

In all likelihood, unless the North Korean nuclear arsenal is obliterated, Pyongyang’s nuclear triumphalism will precipitate a spasm of nuclear proliferation in Asia and in the Middle East. The implications of this for the US and its allies will be far reaching.

Not only can Japan and South Korea be reasonably expected to develop nuclear arsenals. Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and other inherently unstable Arab states can be expected to develop or purchase nuclear arsenals in response to concerns over North Korea and its ally Iran with its nuclear weapons program linked to Pyongyang’s.

In other words, if the US does not respond in a strategically profound way to Pyongyang now, it will not only lose its alliance system in Asia, it will see the rapid collapse of its alliance system and superpower status in the Middle East.

Israel, for one, will be imperiled by the sudden diffusion of nuclear power.

Monday morning, North Korea followed up its thermonuclear bomb test with a spate of threats to destroy the United States. These threats are deadly even if North Korea doesn’t attack the US with its nuclear weapons. If the US does not directly defeat North Korea in a clear-cut way now, its position as a superpower in Asia and worldwide will be destroyed and its ability to defend its own citizens will be called into question with increasing frequency and lethality.

Boston: Gruesome jihad videos nixed for terror trial jury in plot to BEHEAD Pamela Geller

48
  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Google+

“We’re not playing any videos of violence to other humans in open court. In my mind, that’s a form of obscenity,” said U.S. District Court Judge William G. Young during a hearing yesterday.

This is wrong. More sharia censorship. More scrubbing of jihad incitement. The jury must see what motivated these devout Muslims to plot to behead me. This is obscene. The jury should see exactly what they were planning on doing.

Gruesome videos nixed for terror trial jurors

Boston Herald, September 7, 2017:

Jurors who will decide the fate of an Everett man charged in a 2015 plot to behead a conservative blogger will not be forced to see the gruesome videos the defendant apparently watched, according to a federal judge.

“We’re not playing any videos of violence to other humans in open court. In my mind, that’s a form of obscenity,” said U.S. District Court Judge William G. Young during a hearing yesterday. “It’s comparable to child pornography, and we’re not going to sit here — voyeur-like — and watch that.”

Jury empanelment in the case of David Wright is slated to begin on Sept. 18, according to Young. Prosecutors say Wright plotted with Rhode Island resident Nicholas Rovinski and another man to kill blogger Pamela Geller in an ISIS-inspired hit. The plot was never carried out, and Rovinski pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges last year.

Wright’s defense team and federal prosecutors huddled yesterday to work out last-minute motions. Young found that some of the videos Wright watched and the magazines he read were not going to be blown up in open court for the jury to see, but they can be entered into evidence.

Young said federal prosecutors can have a witness testify as to what the videos and magazines, which were found in Wright’s possession, mean. However, he said he wants to instruct jurors as to how they can consider the evidence.

For example, Young said, jurors can look at the videos and magazines to determine what Wright was thinking about during the time leading up to the alleged terrorism conspiracy. However, jurors cannot consider the evidence when deciding what he was thinking. To parse the confusing dichotomy, Young gave a close-to-home example.

“I am a Civil War buff, and I have various books regarding the Civil War. Among them are books relating to various Confederate generals,” he said. “Now, that says nothing about what I think about their conduct, but it does say I am interested in the Civil War.”

WTH?

Wright is charged with conspiring to commit acts of terrorism, conspiring to provide material support to terrorists and obstruction of justice. His uncle, Usaamah Rahim, 26, was shot dead in Roslindale in 2015 while brandishing a 13-inch knife at police and federal agents.

Quran Reciting Barbie

Quran Reciting Barbie

( Muslims do not assimilate! They infiltrate! )

The islamization of Barbie. The iconic female doll of the Western world shrouded in the most misogynistic garb on the face of the earth, reciting from a book that exhorts gender apartheid, creed apartheid, Islamic Jew-hatred, FGM and honor killing.

A mother’s invention, Barbie-like doll recites Quran verses

September 5, 2017, By Hussain AlSadah, Reuters:

DUBAI (Reuters) – French businesswoman and mother Samira Amarir struggled to find toys which could help impart her Islamic faith to her young daughter, so she invented her own.

Now the Barbie-lookalike “Jenna” doll, which she designed from scratch to recite four chapters from the Quran, has entered mass production and is on sale in Gulf Arab countries.

“When my daughter Jenna turned two years old, I was looking for a toy or a tool,” Amarir said.

“The idea was to come up with a toy that would enable her to learn the Quran fast and easily while she plays.”

Jenna, with a name derived from the Arabic word for heaven, comes dressed in a lengthy “abaya” robe with a matching purple headscarf.

Designing the doll using online modeling software, Amarir decided to give it a dark skin tone and little makeup.

“For me it was important that the doll would show something my daughter can recognize herself in, or recognize her mother at least,” she said.

The four chapters that Jenna recites are short and designed to be easy for a child to memorize. Within days of beginning to play with the doll, she began reciting verses.

Amarir and family have moved from their home in France to the United Arab Emirates to market the doll in the wealthy and religiously conservative Gulf.

Pamela Geller is the President of the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), publisher of PamelaGeller.com and author of The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration’s War on America and Stop the Islamization of America: A Practical Guide to the Resistance.
