Rush – Mueller’s Job Really To Cover Up,
Protect Criminal Democrats, Including Himself
y5mbewcofb-aXPa9Ee9g8KbtJtoIkHO-7TQBKqsFuPZWsQU-jFy8-_u7GYdqPBu7HdqA_CesgSK_sYhqjwhHspkgMpusxh82TppYe6WBNK7t0WQn1t-VHrZk57j7SlLcJmupztrL2ret=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=500
{rickwells.us} ~ Rush Limbaugh points out that so often it is the case that the globalist Democrats will accuse Republicans and American patriots of any stripe of offenses that they themselves are committing... and will exaggerate their outrage in the process. Sarah Sanders made a similar statement in the Friday press briefing, and Limbaugh believes the indications are that that is at play here. He also points out a component of their misconduct and that accusatory posturing that is significant, the fact that they were themselves colluding with the Russians as they were accusing their opponents. Rush is right but it’s worse when taking time to contemplate even a small portion of the consequences their criminal misdeeds have created for our nation. Not only were the Democrats making those accusations, they were involving America’s financial resources, our tax dollars which funded lawyers to “investigate” under the corrupt dirty cop Robert Mueller. Three congressional committees and their members were tied up with this contrived farce as well, preventing them from doing the real business of the nation and wasting their wages as well as staff members on nonsensical pursuits...  https://rickwells.us/rush-mueller-cover-democrats/

In 2015 and 2016, approximately
2.5 million migrants reached Europe
by Giulio Meotti
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~French President Emmanuel Macron this summer ended up in the middle of a political storm -- with accusations of "racism"... for saying that women "with seven or eight children" are responsible for the current condition of the African continent, thus creating a challenge, according to Macron, that is "civilizational". The United Nations states that Macron is right. According to the UN's annual demographic report, "World Population Prospects," one-sixth of the world's population currently lives in Africa. By 2050, the proportion will be one-quarter, and at the end of the century -- when Africa will have four billion people -- one-third. In Africa today, there are four times more births than deaths. According to figures for 2017, the total fertility rate is 4.5 children per woman, against 1.6 in Europe. During the next thirty years, the population of Africa is expected to increase by one billion. It is not hard to imagine how mass illegal immigration will affect Europe through such unprecedented demographic pressure. African demography has already begun pressing on the "old continent"...  https://www.https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/11095/europe-demography-muhammad/11095/europe-demography-muhammad

{rickwells.us} ~ Anyone who had the occasion during their life to try to maintain at work while they were still buzzed, say from a business lunch that went on a little longer than it should have... is familiar with what Nancy Pulosi is going through. Migraine sufferers have an even stronger connection to the difficulties she’s having in communicating. Her signals aren’t processing properly, she’s fighting it, well aware that the camera is picking up every faltering attempt at completing a sentence, every failure to properly pronounce a word. Pulosi is giving it her best effort, even adding in extra sentences after the blank spots to try to mitigate the damage. It isn’t working and more time isn’t going to sober her up and make the problem go away. Passing weeks and months are likely to only make things worse for her. Everybody in the room is watching her more for the entertainment, car wreck value than the content of her words... https://rickwells.us/pelosi-remember-twitching-meth/

Orban is bringing the weight of his intelligence services to bear on the Hungarian-American business magnate’s networks that are targeting his country.  Intelligence agencies will help evaluate what he sees as efforts by Soros to get Hungary punished by EU institutions pursuing a “mixed-population” continent, Orban said in an interview with Kossuth Radio on Friday...  https://www.conservativeinstitute.org/national-sovereignty/border-security/plot-to-destroy-soros.htm?utm_source=Boomtrain&bt_alias=eyJ1c2VySWQiOiAiYzM2M2U0NGMtNjcxZS00YzJlLWJkYjktYzRiZjI3OGZmOGFkIn0%3D&utm_campaign=dynamic_campaign&utm_medium=automated

Mueller Bombs Trump's Big Week

by JACK SHAFER
{politico.com} ~ Fortified by news in the Washington Post that the liar-Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee paid the oppo-research outfit Fusion GPS to produce the Steele Dossier, President Donald Trump overran his opponents’ positions this week. Splattering them with half-truths and hyperbole, Trump charged that “the whole Russian thing” was a “hoax” and an excuse for Democrats unwilling to accept that they lost the election. Then he rolled in a grenade, calling the dossier “fake.” Finally, he sparked his flamethrower to life and hosed his political foes with rhetorical fire by invoking the uranium deal in none-dare-call-it-conspiracy style, describing Uranium One’s sale to a Russian company during the liar-nObama era as the equal of Watergate.

At least that’s how it looked in Trump’s version of the war movie until late Friday, when it turned out that the president was rushing to take the wrong hill. First, the conservative Washington Free Beacon website—funded by a billionaire from the never-Trump movement—’fessed to having paid for Fusion GPS’s original anti-Trump work before the liar-Clinton Democrats took over the payments. Then CNN reported that special prosecutor Robert S. Mueller III had fired a bunker buster, bringing his first indictment in the probe. The identity of the person charged is under seal still, CNN reported, and will remain so until the person is arrested, possibly as soon as Monday. Will it be Paul Manfort, whom prosecutors reportedly all but promised to indict? It will be a long weekend of rampant speculation until the scoop is confirmed.
 
During the week, when the news still appeared to be on Trump’s side, he tried to make the Democrats’ funding of the dossier sound like a bombshell, but even casual news consumers knew from numerous accounts—including the first mention of the dossier in the press by Mother Jones’ David Corn—that they had paid for it. What gave the story dimension was the fact that attorney Marc E. Elias, who paid for the report at the behest of the liar-Clinton campaign and the DNC, had lied about it for months, which made it look like they were trying to hide something. Elias has paid for his sin. Reporters don’t like being lied to, and when they are, they pour the scorn on, as lied-to-reporter Ken Vogel did on Twitter and in the pages of the New York Times. Trump welcomed the Post’s raw news with such enthusiasm he seemed to have forgotten that he and his spokespeople had gone on record saying the paper isn’t a legitimate news source.

His imaginary battlefield smoking and in disarray, Trump retreated to the White House to celebrate what looked like his public relations victories. As the New York Times reported, the three Hill committees investigating the Russia stuff can’t seem to get their acts together. The Republican-led House Intelligence Committee, as the Daily Beast noted, was “blocking and tackling for Trump” by turning its Trump-Russia probe into a counter-investigation, grilling former liar-nObama administration officials Samantha Power and Susan Rice on the “unmasking“ issue, seeking to discredit the dossier, and digging into the uranium allegations. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) went rogue on the Senate Judiciary Committee chair Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) by requesting information from Facebook, Twitter, and the White House without asking him first. Meanwhile, GOP lawmakers were urging an early end to the probes. “Wrap it up,” Trump loyalist Gov. Chris Christie said Friday of the Mueller Russia investigation before news of the indictment hit.

If the Trump Tower scandal could be boiled down to a war of words, we would have crowned Trump the winner months ago because he’s so dang good at jaw-jamming. Whenever accused, he assumes the role of the accuser, deflecting charges by hurling them back at his challengers. The liar-Clinton camp and the press try to pin campaign collusion with Russia on him, and he flips it around by weirdly claiming it was liar-Hillary Clinton who committed collusion with the Russians by commissioning the dossier. And remember when he argued that Facebook, the New York Times and the Washington Post committed collusion against him?

The new interest in a Uranium One scandal Trump has fanned with his Twitter feed fits this pattern. As assessed by Factcheck.org, Snopes, Politifact, and the Washington Post, there doesn’t seem to be much to Trump’s shouting. He could be right. The Russians might have bought the House of liar-Clinton. She might be the Moscow Candidate! Or the ballyhoo might be just the Benghazi crap retreaded for another roll around the track. In any event, no matter what liar-Hillary Clinton’s sins, they have nothing to do with the Trump-Russia probes, so if we’re going to tussle over them, let’s put them in a separate lane.

But the scandal is less about Trumpian word-war, the forging of public opinion through the services of the Fox News Channel, and the side-show of the uranium story than it is about Mueller’s ultimate findings and his power to bring criminal indictments. Mueller’s team, which has kept radio silence since mustered into being in May by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, has been steadily building its evidentiary munitions depot in a secretive bunker that so far has been impervious to the counter assaults of the White House. Mueller’s staff has issued subpoenas in profusion and interviewed Rosenstein himself, dossier author Christopher Steele, top current and former intelligence officials, and former Trump administration officials, and plans to interview current administration officials, culminating almost certainly with an interview with the president.

A new Trump strategem now surfacing holds that the investigations are not just a waste of time but a waste of money. On Friday morning, he tweeted, “It is now commonly agreed, after many months of COSTLY looking, that there was NO collusion between Russia and Trump. Was collusion with liar-HC!” To begin with, it’s not commonly agreed outside the White House at least that there was no collusion, and nobody but Trump loyalists could know that until Mueller finishes his work. As for the cost of Mueller’s investigation, everybody knows these things don’t come cheap. The Iran-Contra investigation swallowed $47 million, which is about $104 million in today’s dollars. Even at $200 million, the Mueller investigation will be a bargain if it uncovers obstruction of justice, money laundering, and tax fraud by the president or his associates.

By week’s end, the New York Times moved a story that helped restore battlefield vigor—if not to Mueller himself then to Trump’s doubters. Citing interviews and record, the Times asserted that Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian attorney who set up the infamous meeting at Trump Tower in June 2016 with the design of peddling information damaging to the Democrats and liar-Clinton, was working from an established playbook. The memo she brought to Trump town “closely followed” a document that Russia’s prosecutor general had given to an American congressman two months earlier.

The Times story demolishes Veselnitskaya’s claim that she was an independent actor in the Trump Tower saga, and makes a persuasive case that she was part of an official “synchronized information campaign.” Sort of smells like collusion when you nose your way around the entire story.

NFL Owner In Full Panic After What Packers Star Said He’s Doing At Next Game That’ll DESTROY Team

The point with the National Anthem protests have been made and now it’s time for it to stop, but that doesn’t seem like it will happen anytime soon. The competition level within the sport has transferred from the actual game to who can make a bigger, more disgusting statement than the last athlete. It appears that Packers’ Aaron Rogers wants that title in a sudden surprising move.

Of all the teams in the NFL, the Packers was among those who have gone against the grain and not wasted airtime and energy protesting. This was in large part due to coach Mike McCarthy’s unique approach to combating this issue on his field.

From the start of the preseason when the protests began, McCarthy preempted the problem on his team by educating his players on why we stand for the anthem since ignorance is why most of the idiotic athletes are sitting or kneeling on the sidelines. He’s put the knowledge of the real history of this nation on the field to stop players from making fools of themselves with protests. However, his quarterback didn’t listen to this lesson, or one of the team owners’ shocking ultimatum yesterday.

Rogers just proved that players don’t care about anything other than the attention they get. Just hours after one of his team’s shareholders announced that he’s ready to call it quits if the protests across the NFL persist because he’s livid about what it’s done to the league. The quarterback must have taken that as a challenge, spitting on this man’s massive investment and followed up the announcement with one of his own.

Sheriff Clarke Just Set The Media On Fire With Two Words To Mueller That’ll Ruin Him

By admin | October 28, 2017

With all of the controversy going on right now surrounding Special Counsel Robert Mueller, people have seen to lost a lot of respect for him and the FBI.

Sheriff Clarke beautifully breaks down why people have lost respect for the FBI, and he makes it very clear that he is not talking about the agents at the bottom, but at the guys who are on top.Twitter video is loadingWhile making his statement, he takes a swing at Robert Mueller that he will feel in the morning.

“Look I think it’s a shame because the FBI’s a proud organization, it had a lot of integrity until the Obama Administration Eric Holder leading that thing came alone.”

“And I’m not blaming the agents for any of this but people at the higher levels; the Robert Muellers and some others. They knew about this stuff and buried it, they knew about it and ran with it anyway.”

“People need to begin to question Robert Mueller’s ability during this special prosecution to lead this because now his integrity has come under question.”

“That’s how deep this is and that’s why I use the word corruption and i don’t think that that word is too far-fetched.”

Amen, Sheriff Clarke! Robert Mueller’s integrity is certainly under question and as Sean Hannity earlier pointed out that this is all a big distraction and Mueller is working with the media.31-david-clarke.w710.h473.jpgDon’t let this whole Robert Mueller thing distract you from the truth! The liberal media and democrats are behind this entire thing and those who have eyes to see will realize this!

In September Fascist Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke Resigns:

Milwaukee County rejected Donald Trump’s brand of politics last November by an overwhelming margin. But until Thursday, the area’s top law-enforcement official was a figure so audaciously authoritarian and radically reactionary, he made Trump look like a card-carrying member of the ACLU.

Sheriff David Clarke referred to the Black Lives Matter movement as “black slime” who were bound to “join forces with ISIS” — and “needed to be crushed.” He argued that when police confront anti-Trump protesters, they have a right “to hit first.” When it looked like Trump was going to lose the general election, Clarke tweeted,

“Our institutions of gov, WH, Congress, DOJ, and big media are corrupt & all we do is bitch. Pitchforks and torches time.” After Trump won, Clarke called on the commander-in-chief to round up the “hundreds of thousands” of Americans “that are suspected” of sympathizing with ISIS, and “hold them indefinitely under a suspension of habeas corpus [i.e. without trial].”

Clarke resigned his post in Milwaukee County on Wednesday, without offering any explanation for his action.Image result for sheriff clarkeThe reactionary sheriff’s stewardship of his office was hardly less brutal than his rhetoric. As Jonathan Chait wrote earlier this year:

Four people have died of mistreatment and torture in his custody. One newborn baby died while its mother was shackled during childbirth; another prisoner died of dehydration, after the water in his cell was shut off for seven days.

In 2013, one of his deputies ran a traffic light and T-boned the car of a civilian driver, who was badly injured. Clarke’s department charged the driver, who was actually sober, with drunk driving in order to cover up its own culpability.

Clarke also got embroiled in an ethics investigation, after siccing sheriff’s deputies on a man who looked at him funny while the two men were on a plane.

In May, President Trump appointed Clarke to the Department of Homeland Security, where the sheriff would have overseen federal-local law-enforcement partnerships.

Clarke initially accepted the appointment, but then backed out, ostensibly because he had trouble securing the approval of the Office of Personnel Management, and/or submitting his financial disclosure forms in a timely fashion.Clarke-Mueller-696x392.jpgPolitico reported late on Thursday that Clarke is expected to take a job in the Trump administration, though he “likely won’t be offered a Senate-confirmed role because his nomination would face opposition from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle.”

A White House spokesman said they have “no announcement at this time,” and Clarke said in a text message to Politico, “Will talk about my future plans next week.”

Clarke still had more than a year left in his term.

SICK: Another Liberal Professor Demands White People ‘Commit Mass Suicide’ … Let’s Expose Him

(TeaParty.org) – The sun rose this morning, grass grew, and another leftist professor called upon his white brethren to commit mass suicide in order to absolve themselves of “white guilt,” reports Conservative Tribune.

“Whether or not your individual ancestors owned slaves, you as a white person have benefited from slavery and are complicit in it,” Adam Kotsko, an instructor at Shimer College who holds a PhD in Theology, Ethics, and Culture, posted on Twitter.

“What follows from this?” replied a curious onlooker, as if to say, even if you’re right, so what?

Learn more about RevenueStripe...intense study could produce.

This man’s wealth of knowledge has failed to inform him that not all white people’s ancestors were complicit in the slavery of blacks – what about Europeans who moved to America after the Civil War ended, or the whites still living in Europe?

Kotsko, as with most liberal professors, doesn’t realize that the institution of slavery predates European civilization by thousands of years, and was mostly upheld by nonwhite races. Muslims, for example, are historically responsible for more than 1,400 years of African slave trade – Europeans just only three centuries. While the mortality rate of the Transatlantic slave trade was 10%, the mortality rate of the Islamic Trans-Saharan slave trade was 80%. Why aren’t they held responsible?

Clearly, it doesn’t justify slavery – it exposes Kotsko’s double standard against white people, who aren’t exclusively responsible for slavery. In fact, they were the first civilization to end it.

Perhaps American blacks should also jump from a bridge for having benefited from slavery. In 1830 America, there were 3,775 free black people who owned 12,740 black slaves, according to historian R. Halliburton Jr.

That’s not all – then the professor made a statement so scathingly, drippingly racist that, were it uttered about blacks, Asians, Hispanics, or Jews, it should have instantly ended his career.

“I know it sucks having a racial identity that exists solely to legitimate the subordination and exploitation of other races,” he tweeted, followed by the hashtag #whiteness.

If liberals are assuring the public that Kostko is a fringe, you’ve got something else coming. At a debate hosted by Harvard University, two black debaters openly and proudly called for the extermination of white people in a discussion that was supposed to be about renewable energy.

Let’s hope that this professor, and all white liberals as insane as him, take their ideology all the way to its end and kill themselves. It would be quite a mess to clean up, but at least we’d no longer be hearing from them.

Thank God President Trump can bypass the "Spin Control Corrupt News Media" by Tweeting directly to the WE THE PEOPLE Voters!

Trump haters are the "accessories after the fact" to the crime sprees of the Clintonista Crime Cartel, the Obamunist Ongoing Criminal Enterprise, and the Leftist News Media Industrial Complex Disinformation Pathological Liars dedicated to Propaganda, and who instead of being fair and balanced news broadcast journalists, conspired with the Marxist-Muslim Obama White House to receive Obama payoffs to corruptly coordinate the news broadcasts, in a form of blatant "mind control brainwashing" to perpetually portray Democrats in a good light, attack Republicans and portray them in a bad light, censor bad news for Democrats, and to constantly beat the drum and trumpet repeatedly, bad news about Republicans, thereby twisting the news broadcasts into an ongoing series of political campaign "paid political infomercials," and in violation of Federal Law, failed to broadcast disclosures that the daily News Broadcast "is a paid Political Announcement" and also unlawfully omitting the Obama statement "I approved this message" in a Leftist "Elitist's" actionable conspiracy to use smiling "talking heads" and well-polished diluted hate speech, to control how Americans think by violating Federal Election Laws.

As the environment shifts from one of the uninformed or morally bankrupt public supporting Mueller’s witch hunt to one of recognizing that Mueller is part of a DOJ-FBI cover up and wider Democrat criminal conspiracy that is international in scope, his window of opportunity is shrinking.

He asked again and again. More cricket. Finally, on August 24, the Committee issued a subpoena to the FBI for the documents. Nunes threatened to hold Sessions and the acting FBI Director in contempt of Congress. The subpoena produced about as much respect as did the Committee asking nicely. Yet none of this jibes with reports that the FBI debated paying Mr. Steele to continue his work. Or that Mr. Comey was so convinced by the dossier that he pushed to have it included in the intelligence community’s January report on Russian meddling. Imagine if it turns out the FBI was duped by a politically contracted document that might have been filled up by the Kremlin...  https://www.redstate.com/streiff/2017/10/27/fbi-complies-house-committee-subpoena/?utm_source=rsmorningbriefing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nl

{conservativetribune.com} ~ Amid all of the talk about the Uranium One scandal, one aspect of the story hasn’t received as much attention as is warranted... The liar-nObama administration, including former Secretary of State liar-Hillary Clinton, essentially granted control of strategic nuclear materials to a former mortal enemy turned belligerent rival that is still nowhere near being our “friend.” Of course, that rival is Russia, and it is worth noting that the last time someone gave nuclear materials to Russia, they were executed for their troubles. This was alluded to Thursday night by former White House adviser Sebastian Gorka during an appearance with Fox News host Sean Hannity to discuss the developing scandal, according to The Washington Times. “If this had happened in the 1950s, there would be people up on treason charges right now,” Gorka said. “The Rosenbergs, OK? This is equivalent to what the Rosenbergs did and those people got the chair.”...  https://conservativetribune.com/nuclear-materials-russia-executed/?utm_source=Email&utm_medium=patriottribune&utm_campaign=dailyam&utm_content=libertyalliance

by Judge Andrew Napolitano
{townhall.com} ~ I am in Switzerland this week interacting with and lecturing to students and faculty at the University of Zurich. The subject of our work is the U.S. Constitution and its protections of personal liberty.

In most countries, government has begrudgingly granted snippets of personal liberty to keep those who are demanding it at bay. Throughout history, kings and other tyrants have, from time to time, given in to pressures from folks to recognize their natural rights. These instances of "power granting liberty," as the practice has come to be known, usually have come about to avoid further bloodshed.

In the United States and Switzerland, however, the opposite took place. In both countries, sovereign states came together to establish a central government peacefully. This model is known as "liberty granting power." Indeed, the Swiss Constitution is modeled on our own, whereby free and independent states delegated some of their sovereignty to a new, limited central government.

Today, however, the two countries are embroiled in a below-the-radar dispute over whether U.S. federal courts can try Swiss nationals who have diligently followed Swiss law and who have never been in the U.S.

Here is the back story.

When Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, he included a section he would later refer to as the indictment of British King George III. It characterized the "long train of abuses and usurpations" designed by the king to "harass our people, and eat out their substance." This was harsh language, even by today's standards.

One of those abuses and usurpations was "for transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offenses." He was referring to the British practice of charging colonists -- who had never been to Great Britain -- in London for behavior that was lawful in the Colonies but somehow allegedly ran afoul of English law.

The typical charge was speaking out and inducing others to oppose the king and Parliament or refusing to pay their unlawful taxes. These so-called crimes were often generally characterized as treason against the Crown.

This British practice of dragging American colonists before British judges and British juries was so offensive to the colonists that the Framers sought to prevent it from happening here by crafting two prophylactic clauses in the Constitution itself. One clause defined treason as only levying war against the United States or giving aid and comfort to our enemies. The other clause required that people be tried in the state where such crimes were alleged to have been committed.

The Constitution recognizes that American people and property can be harmed by foreigners in foreign countries, and the common law at the time required that if there was no harm, there was no crime.

These first principles -- crime is harm and people should be tried in the place where they are accused of committing a crime -- have been bedrocks of Anglo-American jurisprudence for hundreds of years.
 
The reason for trying a criminal case in the place where the action took place is to comply with the constitutional requirements of due process. The form of due process requires the pre-existence of the statute allegedly violated, notice of the violation, a trial before a neutral judge and jurors, and the right to appeal the trial's outcome, but the essence of due process is fairness.

Fairness at trial means that the defendant has the constitutionally required tools available to him, not the least of which are witnesses and tangible things to aid in his defense. The Framers knew this would be nearly impossible to achieve in a foreign land before a foreign court.

This understanding subsisted until the Reagan administration when the government began seizing foreigners abroad and bringing them to the U.S. for trial. Though these seizures were repellent, the crimes -- violence against individuals or large-scale distribution of dangerous drugs -- were crimes everywhere, and the harm caused by them was palpable.

Until now.

Now Swiss bankers who have followed and respected Swiss banking laws -- which honor the privacy of customers, no matter who they are -- and who have never caused harm to American people or property are on trial in the U.S.

The charges? Violating U.S. banking laws by failing to report suspicious transactions to U.S. banking regulators. And for those "pretended offenses," these bankers have been transported "beyond Seas" for trial.

The Department of Justice is unable to point to any harm caused by these so-called offenses, but federal judges, just as they did in the Reagan era, are accepting the DOJ argument of universal jurisdiction -- that somehow American federal courts can try anyone, no matter where a person is said to have committed a crime, as long as the defendant is physically in the courtroom.

But this violates the Declaration of Independence and Constitution's first principles, and it subjects American bankers and government officials to the same pretended universal jurisdiction of foreign courts. Indeed, a court in Spain has indicted former President George W. Bush and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld for alleged war crimes committed in Afghanistan.

Why should Bush and Rumsfeld answer to Spain for events that allegedly occurred in Afghanistan? Why should Swiss bankers answer to the U.S. when they didn't violate Swiss law?

This is all about power and the fiction of universal jurisdiction -- a fiction the Framers thought they had buried. It needs to be buried again.

In introducing Chris Farrell of Judicial Watch, Dobbs says, “The legal public interest organization Judicial Watch has done more than any lawmaker or any Congressional committee over the past two years to inform the public about the widening liar-nObama/liar-Clinton – Russia collusion scandal.” He continues, “And it is because of their efforts that the FBI now says it has recovered 72,000 more pages of liar-Clinton records. The State Department, however, says they have failed to produce even half of those 72,000 emails and pages in response to a federal court order.”...  https://rickwells.us/farrell-indictments-obama-clinton/

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ Lawyers for the conservative publication Washington Free Beacon informed the House Intelligence Committee Friday... that the organization was the original funder for the anti-Trump opposition research project with Fusion GPS. The Free Beacon funded the project from the fall of 2015 through the spring of 2016, whereupon it withdrew funding and the project was picked up by the Democratic National Committee and the liar-Hillary Clinton campaign. Sources close to the Free Beacon stress that the project, when the Free Beacon funded it, had nothing to do with Russia and did not involve Christopher Steele, the former British spy who gathered anti-Trump dirt in Russia. Steele was retained by Fusion GPS when the project was funded by Democrats, and not in its initial phase, when the Free Beacon was involved...  http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington-free-beacon-funded-original-fusion-gps-anti-trump-opposition-effort/article/2638850?utm_campaign=Washington%20Examiner:%20News%20Alert&utm_source=Washington%20Examiner:%20News%20Alert%20-%2010/27/17&utm_medium=email

A Taxing Debate About Retirement
41EMVQWYAGvpA4lda3JQ6pOxvTlNYF02k8eeeD2WU46k3Fwm7v9DYZmaqtQmXM4LsMG7-aLzStLvQRdYzl64sYQ0vodhTWA0SbzNAMaAkgIU0ObwVBzG2fZ1AtrmOKc=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=750by Michael Swartz:  Last week we were waxing bearish on the prospect of actually seeing President Donald Trump’s tax cuts pass. But a significant initial step came this week when the House approved a budget blueprint that would allow for better control of the GOP’s tax legislation, placing it under the budgetary rules in place to prevent Senate minority Democrats from denying cloture. Not all Republicans voted for the bill — it passed by a thin 216-212 margin — but several of those GOP members voting no did so in symbolic fashion to express their opposition only after enough votes were there for passage. House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy expressed his belief that some of the 20 holdout Republicans “will be there for tax reform” because they were only objecting to the budget.

          The House Republicans who most loudly opposed the measure were those most vulnerable to Democrat challenge next year. Coming mostly from longtime blue states such as New Jersey and New York, these dozen GOP moderates were upset about the idea of tax reform including the phase-out of the deduction for state and local taxes, as their overtaxed constituents use that deduction more often than most Americans. Losing it would certainly hit those states hardest, but it would also bring more to the Treasury.
          A second point of objection expressed by members and conservative pundits alike was the prospect of severely curtailing the tax benefits of the retirement accounts that millions of Americans use to shelter funds from the tax man. Oddly enough, they took their cues from the man at the top this time: “There will be NO change to your 401(k),” President Trump tweeted. “This has always been a great and popular middle class tax cut that works, and it stays!”
          Sharply limiting this practice, or converting these accounts to be like the less popular Roth IRAs (which are taxed now but tax-free upon withdrawal, the inverse of a standard IRA) would be an easy target for Democrat and media demagoguery. Witness the rhetoric of Oregon Democrat Sen. Ron Wyden, who warned that Republicans “cannot keep their hands off your 401(k).”
          Yes, the hypocrisy can be cut with a knife. Just four years ago, the shoe was on the other foot because Barack liar-nObama thought some people had too much retirement money stashed away. Two years later, it was tax-free college savings that seemed like a ready pool of cash for liar-nObama to take from the rich. Wyden didn’t object to that bill, by the way, and in 2010 he co-sponsored a tax bill that proposed many of the same things — such as fewer brackets, a lower top rate, a reduced number of deductions, and a slashed corporate tax rate — that Donald Trump’s tax reform is advocating today. The only difference is the occupant of the Oval Office.
          Yet even if changes are made, there are legitimate arguments that Roth-style 401(k)s make some sense from a retirement standpoint and won’t negatively affect savings rates. The biggest gamble with the Roth IRA is that someone will change the rules before you retire. After all, once upon a time Social Security benefits were tax-free, too.
          These changes to the individual tax burden are drawing the most press, along with the tired old Democrat mantra of “tax cuts for the rich” that the media blurts out like it’s breaking news. This lead item has pushed the equally radical proposed changes to corporate taxes to the back burner, but there’s an even larger problem with the framework needed to commence the necessary sausage-grinding for tax reform. “We’re about to go through Class 5 rapids,” said House Speaker Paul Ryan, referring metaphorically to the hordes of lobbyists preparing to swarm Capitol Hill in the attempt to preserve their clients’ tax breaks and carve-outs. “We’ve got to make sure everybody stays in the boat and we get the boat down the river.”
          We know that leftists will object no matter what conservatives try to do, but with this budget Republicans have placed themselves in a no-win situation. There are enough so-called “cuts” in entitlement programs to provide a long heyday for Democrat naysayers, but not enough to really improve our long-term financial solvency, let alone get government back to its proper role. Even with the Congress and White House belonging to the party that has long preached fiscal responsibility, members of our legislative body are confessing this budget framework once again kicks the can down the road in areas that desperately need reform.
          And while fiscal responsibility is the first casualty of this new deal, the part that survives but deserves to die is the notion that tax cuts must be “paid for.” Disregard the faulty static analysis that leads opponents to whine that cutting taxes costs the government money, and ask the larger question: Whose money it is anyway?
          Real people have to hope that their annual raise is enough to cover their increasing expenses. A single vote or a simple change to a few lines in the tax code allows the IRS to reach more deeply into our collective pockets. Unfortunately, the people don’t seem to have a lobbyist to beseech Uncle Sam to give them a break — unless, of course, you’re one who doesn’t mind getting more from the national treasury and hasn’t noticed the chains that accompany this gift.  ~The Patriot Pos

A Taxing Situation

by Cal Thomas
{townhall.com} ~ Federal income tax was first introduced under the Revenue Act of 1861 to help defray war costs. Congress repealed the tax in 1871 when the need for government revenue declined, only to restore it in 1894 as part of the Wilson-Gorman Tariff Act. The public policy debate surrounding the constitutionality of income tax has been going on ever since.

Given the government's inventive ways of taking our money and spending it irresponsibly, Congress and enough states took care of the unconstitutional part in 1913 with the passage of the 16th Amendment.

The federal government has since raised more money than any government has likely ever raised while spending more money than any government has ever spent. But the money exits the treasury door just as fast as it comes in.

Congress does not need more of our money. It needs to control spending.

As I have argued in previous columns, the current debate over tax legislation starts at the wrong end. Politicians want us to accept that some people aren't paying "enough." This keeps the debate focused on those who work to earn the money, rather than on politicians who cynically misspend it, in large part to keep themselves in office.

It is spending, not taxes, that needs to be reformed, but few want to give up their government "benefits." Ever try getting information from a government office? And yet people continue to turn to government, even though it does few things well.

In the debate over tax cuts, President Trump seems to be yielding to the class warfare crowd, which believes "the rich" ought to pay more, and the bottom 50 percent should pay even less. A better idea would be to require every American to pay something. Even street panhandlers, some of whom receive tax-free money through welfare benefits, should have some skin in the game.

For any real tax reform to occur, the philosophy behind wealth and income must change. A rich person doesn't deprive me of money or the opportunity to improve my financial circumstances. There is not one pot of money from which all must draw. We used to teach people how to create their own "pots," but now we teach envy, greed and entitlement, an unholy financial and ideological "hat trick" that improves no one's life.

If you are middle class or poor, how does taxing rich people benefit you? Does envying the wealthy improve your economic status?

I have never envied the rich. As a college student, I wanted to know how people became rich, or at least independent of government. Politicians, egged-on by people like Warren Buffet and Bill Gates, make public statements about their wealth that sound like apologies. Their success should instead teach others.

In my grandparents' day, one was expected to live within one's means, work hard, save and invest wisely, avoid debt and not covet what your neighbor has (see the Tenth Commandment). This was not only good economic advice but a reflection of one's moral character. During World War II, neighbors would never think of borrowing more than a cup of sugar or a few ration stamps for fear people would believe them irresponsible. Neighbors and religious institutions were expected to help the truly needy, not government.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) was on to something when he said: "We don't need new taxes. We need new taxpayers, people that are gainfully employed, making money and paying into the tax system. And then we need a government that has the discipline to take that additional revenue and use it to pay down the debt and never grow it again."

I would start with the second part of his proposal. If followed, the government would not only not need more of our money it might be forced by voters to give some of it back.

Gov't Settles With Tea Party Groups for IRS Targeting
oIKsuZPeOY7L7FIlaWH93tFFPPz3hh36pARceqhdDj9KHW2oh7Gqq8hixp-Dh-K24_VFbo9_gNOl7cagbbIIT6KNDCOOusFqsclNj8Tfi8mVwdVQvo-tmfWBKe8SoJc=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?width=500by Thomas Gallatin:  On Thursday, the U.S. government apologized for the IRS scandal of illegally targeting Tea Party groups during the liar-nObama administration. Barack liar-nObama’s enemies list sidelined literally hundreds of conservative organizations looking to exercise their free speech rights during the 2012 election. Attorney General Jeff Session slammed “the last administration,” saying that the targeting “was wrong and should never have occurred.” Sessions continued, “There is no excuse for this conduct. Hundreds of organizations were affected by these actions, and they deserve an apology from the IRS.” Indeed, though if liar-nObama won re-election because of this weaponization of government, an apology is woefully inadequate.

          The government reached a “very substantial” settlement agreement in a class action lawsuit that had been brought by more than 400 conservative groups illegally targeted by the IRS. Edward Greim, the lawyer representing the targeted groups, said, “A true reckoning is finally up to the agency itself. Until the IRS itself steps forward to admit what really happened, we cannot have faith that the same abuse won’t be repeated again.”
          While this settlement is indeed a win for those who suffered under liar-nObama’s politicized IRS, it does not close the book on the issue. Several new filings have been raised that specifically single out the former IRS director of Exempt Organizations, Lois Lerner, for her role in “failing” to stop the targeting by IRS employees. Recall that in 2015 a joint Justice Department and FBI investigation found “substantial evidence of mismanagement, poor judgment and institutional inertia,” and yet dubiously “found no evidence that any IRS official acted based on political, discriminatory, corrupt or other inappropriate motives that would support a criminal prosecution.”
          Tom Zawistowski, head of the Portage County Tea Party in Ohio, believes that Lerner should have faced criminal charges for her role in attempting to hide the agency’s activity by changing names while still approving of the targeting tactics. To date no evidence has come to light directly linking the IRS targeting scandal with the liar-nObama White House — nor will it, thanks to a deft use of cutouts and other tactics to avoid leaving fingerprints.
          And this is what so frustrates many Americans. When laws have been clearly violated, those in Washington who are guilty of having violated the law are seemingly immune to having to face any criminal liability or accountability. Lerner is enjoying a lucrative retirement. The scandal is simply swept under the rug and business continues as usual. This is why the swamp must be drained, as more and more Americans have lost their faith in government.  ~The Patriot Pos

{familysecuritymatters.org} ~ Judicial Watch announced that the State Department revealed in a federal court hearing that it has yet to process 40,000 of 72,000 pages of liar-Hillary Clinton records that the FBI recovered last year... The revelation came during a federal court hearing in Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit seeking former Secretary of State liar-Hillary Clinton's emails that were sent or received during her tenure from February 2009 to January 31, 2013 (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:15-cv-00687)). The case is before Judge James E. Boasberg. The hearing focused on the State Department's progress on processing the tens of thousands of emails liar-Clinton failed to disclose when she served as Secretary of State, some of which were emails sent by liar-Clinton aide Huma Abedin that were found on the laptop of her estranged husband Anthony Weiner.  Judicial Watch asked the court to require the State Department to identify any records from the seven FBI discs that it intends to withhold, and why, in a timely manner. The State Department disclosed to the Court that it was adding extra resources to its FOIA operation but would not commit to a faster production of the liar-Clinton emails...  http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/fbi-recovered-72000-pages-of-clinton-records?f=must_reads

GLOBAL WARMING & OTHER FANTASIES
by Burt Prelutsky


Leonardo DiCaprio and other members of the Hollywood elite are terribly concerned, as they keep reminding the rest of us, that the earth is heating up at an alarming rate. But it’s getting harder and harder for me to take them seriously because whenever they’re not making millions of dollars starring in some piece of cinematic dreck, they all seem to be private-jetting off to vacation in some tropical paradise to work on their tans.

Even as they snivel and wail about the planet’s imminent destruction, they never bother explaining what would be so dreadful about things warming up a bit. Something else that they, along with the hand puppets passing themselves off as climatologists, keep insisting on is that their lies constitute "settled science." But it never occurs to them to acknowledge that the earth doesn’t have a single normal temperature.

Unlike the human body, which functions best at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, the earth can simultaneously support life in sub-zero Siberia and in sub-Saharan Africa.

The global warming hoax has been perpetrated mainly by the globalists who inhabit the UN and by third world countries looking to have their energy needs subsidized by the U.S. and other first world industrialized nations.

● While congressional Republicans busy themselves trying to legislate Trump’s tax cuts, the Democrats, led by Chuck clown-Schumer and Nancy Pulosi, keep insisting that the cuts will favor millionaires and billionaires. Well, inasmuch as those are the people who pay the majority of income taxes, it figures that any cuts will benefit them the most.

The real crime is that roughly half the population pays nothing to the IRS. And yet they get to cast the same votes as everyone else. Through some aberration in the tax code, some of these chiselers even get a return from the taxman, although it boggles the mind to figure out how you can get money back from Uncle Sam when you haven’t paid in a dime.

● Even as ISIS is driven out of Raqqa, their land mines continue to kill American soldiers and our allies. I suggest we use those ISIS creeps who surrendered the same way that canaries are used in coalmines, thus ensuring that it be they, and not our own husbands, brothers and sons, who set off the explosive devices.

● A news alert to all 18-year-olds: Before you sign up for four years of Black Studies, Latino Studies or the History of Comic Books, along with a mountain of future indebtedness, you should know there are currently 200,000 good-paying jobs in construction available to those of you bright enough to know on which side of the bread your future is buttered.

● Why is President Trump hosting the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres at the White House? It wasn’t that long ago, he was sensibly calling for the U.S. to bail out of that criminal enterprise. What’s next? Will Trump be hosting a fund-raiser for the liar-Clinton Foundation or tossing a birthday bash for Chelsea?

● When Gen. John Kelly, Trump’s chief of staff, explained the protocol involved in letting survivors know that a loved one has been lost on the battlefield, he took the opportunity to call the self-aggrandizing Rep. Frederica Wilson an “empty barrel.” In response, MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, an empty barrel in his own right, labeled General Kelly, along with those born and raised in the same environment, racists.

If you assumed, as I did, that Kelly must have been born in the deep South, which has been the favorite scapegoat of liberals ever since Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, stopped electing Democrats, you would be mistaken.

It seems that Kelly hails from Boston, the very same stomping grounds of such left-wing idols as the Kennedy clan, Ed Markey and Elizabeth dinky-Warren.

Apparently, Mr. O’Donnell feels it’s okay to label Gen. Kelly a bigot simply because he’s from Boston and happens to be of Irish heritage, but the same, oddly enough, is true of O’Donnell. It has been said that it takes one to know one, but in this case, I’d say it takes one to slander one.

What I personally find so appalling is that the worse that blacks behave, both as individuals and in large groups, the more eagerly white liberals will rush to defend them. But, then, defending the indefensible is what liberals do best.

People like Lawrence O’Donnell, Mad-Maxine Waters, Frederica Wilson and the majority of the players in the NFL, like to pretend that racism is systemic in America. But, how can that be? Ever since the abolition of Jim Crow laws and the passage of the Civil Rights Act, it is illegal to treat any group of people worse than any other group. White males perhaps being the notable exception.

In fact, things have been reversed to such an extent that blacks are held to a much lower standard when it comes to boorish, even criminal, behavior. Or else why would Barack liar-nObama have gone to such lengths to de-criminalize drug trafficking, except to provide thousands of black felons with a Get Out of Jail free card?

● Speaking of the devil, it was none other than liar-nObama who recently declared: “If you have to win an election by dividing people, you won’t be able to govern them.”

How odd to hear those words from the Great Divider himself, the Creature from Chicago who spent eight long years dividing blacks from whites, atheists from Christians, criminal rabble from law-abiding gun owners, college students from their parents -- and in each case, siding with the riffraff who voted for him.

I was recently sent an amusing item that indicated how much the presidency ages a man. In the Before Box was a photo of Barack liar-nObama in 2008; in the After Box, captioned “Barack liar-nObama in 2017” was a photo of none other than George W. Bush.

At this point, it’s hard to figure out what annoyed Bush more: the fact that brother Jeb didn’t get the nomination or that liar-Hillary Clinton lost the election to the fellow who sent Jeb Bush packing.

It’s always been said that politics make for strange bed fellows. But not nearly as strange as we’ve seen since the election of Donald Trump, with globalist Republicans openly competing with Democrats when it comes to demeaning the president.

● I suspect we were all shocked to hear Harvey Weinstein insist that a week in rehab has miraculously cured him of his sexual addiction.

Pardon me if I sound cynical, but I once knew a cocaine addict who checked himself into a rehab clinic in order to kick his habit. A month later, he came out clean. But he reported that only he and one other person had checked in for the appropriate reason.

All the others were motivated by one of two things. Either they had been arrested and been told by their lawyers to enter the program because it would play well with the judge; or they had taken so many drugs that even heroin no longer had the desired effect. It was their intention to have their systems cleaned out so that they could once again experience the desired high.

He also told me that he had never seen so many illegal drugs available in one place as he saw inside the clinic. It seems that except for himself and the other guy, both of whom had been scared straight, everyone else had either smuggled in drugs or had a friend smuggle them in during visiting hours.

It does make a person wonder what goes on after the sun sets at a rehab clinic for the sexually addicted.

Antifa Disturbs Another Conservative Event at the UMN

0

Antifa, UMN, Lauren, SouthernImage Credit: Twitter/@Lauren_Southern

MINNEAPOLIS — Protesters gathered outside on West Bank of the University of Minnesota campus as conservative activist, Lauren Southern arrived on campus for a speaking engagement.

Southern, a Canadian activist, journalist, and YouTube sensation, has been compared to other politically-right figures such as Tomi Lahren and Milo Yiannopoulos.

Students for a Conservative Voice and Collegians for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT) invited Southern to speak on campus using student association fees to pay for the event.

Approximately 200 to 250 members of Antifa gathered outside of Wiley Hall after a call for action on the website “It’s Going Down.”

“It’s encouraged that you do not arrive alone. Come with a close friend or better yet an affinity group,” some friendly neighborhood anti-fascists write. “Take steps to protect your identity from the State and the expected presence of alt-right and alt-lite livestreamers who will surely be taking video footage to single people out for doxxing after the dust settles. This can mean any number of things from altering your appearance to covering your face. Use what makes you feel the most comfortable and more importantly, safe.”

According to the Pioneer Press, police used chemical irritants on three separate occasions to break up fights that occurred in the crowd outside.

Brittany Paige Cusiack, 21, was arrested by police for allegedly causing a disturbance. The Pioneer Press reports she was wearing a black mask at the time of her arrest.

On social media, Southern seemed to be unfazed by all of the protesting outside. From inside the lecture hall, Southern tweeted out that attendees had, “survived the shrieking commies outside.”

In another tweet Southern writes, “Swat team called in so I could show pictures of fat feminists.”

This isn’t the first time the University of Minnesota has experienced protesters at speaking events for conservative personalities.

In 2016, Alpha News captured the moments when protestors snuck into a lecture hall on campus to disturb Milo Yiannopoulos and Christina Hoff Sommers. In 2014, protesters stood outside of Northrop Auditorium to protest a lecture by former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

JFK Documents Released Amidst Continuing Cloud
by Nate Jackson:  On Nov. 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated while riding in a procession in Dallas. Lee Harvey Oswald was quickly identified as the assassin, though he himself was killed after being taken into custody. And there are few events in American history that have ginned up as many conspiracy theories — including Donald Trump’s  outlandish charge during the GOP presidential primary that Raphael Cruz, Ted Cruz’s father, was involved.

          Thus it was big news when, on Thursday, President Trump released 2,800 records on Kennedy’s assassination but delayed the release of thousands more, evidently under pressure from the CIA and FBI so as not to harm national security. The remaining documents will be reviewed over the next 180 days, after which there’s no guarantee they’ll see the light of day. The release was in compliance with a law signed in 1992 by George H.W. Bush.
          The Washington Post reports, “Researchers had hoped the release would shed new light on Oswald’s movements and contacts in the months before he shot Kennedy. Historians were particularly eager for new details of Oswald’s six-day trip to Mexico City, where he met with Cubans and Soviets two months before the assassination. None of those documents appeared to be in the batch released Thursday.”
          In fact, no documents released Thursday undermined the conclusion of the Warren Commission that Oswald acted alone, and yet a majority of Americans continue to believe there was a wider plot. Perhaps that’s because part of the unveiled material included this from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover: “The thing I am concerned about … is having something issued so we can convince the public that Oswald is the real assassin.” That was likely just an observation, but those inclined to disbelieve the government may always wonder if it was an imperative.
          A president must make different decisions than a presidential candidate, and the CIA may be correct about not wanting to reveal assets or methods, even more than 50 years later. But we remain puzzled by the shroud of secrecy surrounding JFK’s assassination and think the whole country would benefit from more transparency.

THE ROOTS OF THE DEM’S RUSSIA OBSESSION
by Daniel Greenfield
{frontpagemag.com} ~ Five years ago, Mitt Romney was hammering Barack liar-nObama for being soft on Russia. And liar-nObama was ridiculing him as a Cold War fossil... The Russia exchanges may seem confusing today, but back then they were a natural outgrowth of the respective Democrat and Republican foreign policy positions. The Dems had accused President Bush of alienating Russia with the Iraq War. The RINO-McCain/liar-nObama debates echoed the Romney/liar-nObama debates with RINO-McCain taking a harder line on Russia. In ’08, Vladimir Putin even suggested that relations would improve once liar-nObama took office. By ’12, liar-nObama was caught on a hot mic promising more flexibility for Russia after the election was over. Until the end of the liar-nObama era, foreign policy fell along these predictable lines. Republicans focused on the old Cold War need to maintain NATO against Russian expansionism. Democrats had their own Cold War reflex. Whenever they heard Russia, they began to talk about nuclear disarmament. And that was exactly what liar-nObama did... http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/268220/roots-dems-russia-obsession-daniel-greenfield

Next state bars business 
with companies that boycott Israel
by Ovetta Wiggins
{jewishworldreview.com} ~ Republican Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan signed an executive order on Monday that prohibits the state from doing business with companies engaged in a boycott of Israel.

Hogan took the executive action against the Boycott, Divest and Sanction (BDS) movement, an effort started in 2005 by a coalition of Palestinian organizations in response to Israel's occupation of the West Bank territory. BDS activities range from discouraging the purchase of goods produced in Israeli settlements to pressuring international companies not to conduct business in Israel.

"Boycotts based on religion, national origin, place of residence or ethnicity are discriminatory," Hogan said, standing with Jewish leaders from the Baltimore and Montgomery counties."Contracting with businesses that practice discrimination would make the state a passive participant in private-sector commercial discrimination."

Hogan said all future requests for state bids will include language that the company has not refused to do business with or stopped doing business with any person or entity on the basis of Israeli national origin.

The order also calls for the state to terminate any contracts with companies that participate in a boycott of Israel. Hogan said he was unaware of any contracts at risk of being terminated under the order, but added that a review would take place. The order also calls for barring the state pension system from investing in companies engaged in an Israel-related boycott, a move that some say would require legislation to enforce.

The executive order mirrors legislation that failed to receive a committee vote in the General Assembly last session. According to legislative analysts, numerous states, including Illinois, New York, and South Carolina, have taken similar steps.

Del. Benjamin Kramer, D-Montgomery, who sponsored the failed bill, called the governor's order "an important first step to make it clear that Maryland's public policy is not to utilize taxpayer dollars for a bigoted boycott targeting the only nation on this planet with a majority Jewish population."

Kramer and Sen. Robert Zirkin, D-Baltimore County, also a lead sponsor of last year's legislation, said they plan to introduce legislation next session that addresses pension-system investments.

Jewish leaders have pushed for the legislation for years.

Hogan, who led a trade mission to Israel last September, has been cultivating ties with Jewish communities in Maryland. He has visited Jewish schools in Baltimore and Montgomery counties; hosted a Hanukkah party at Government House, and attended a Sabbath dinner at a Montgomery County synagogue.

He replied in terms that would be difficult for a Democrat to challenge. Grassley said, “Well, obviously there was and is justification for a special counsel, Russia Vs Trump.” He continued, “Now we’ve got problems with the previous administration. It seems to me that there are so many people within the Justice Department that maybe have conflicts of interest, that I asked for a special counsel in regard to the investigations of Russia Vs the liar-nObama and liar-Clinton involvements with Uranium One.”...  https://rickwells.us/grassley-prosecutor-clinton-racketeering/

The Republicans’ problem isn’t lack of ideas; it’s lack of will – in spite of the manifest passion of their voters for repealing the 2010 law. But Schatz’s opinion piece from Wednesday does have the virtue of summarizing a few actual proposals from Democrats to tweak liar-nObamacare. And the proposal of Senator Schatz himself is in a class all its own.  Schatz’s ingenious plan is to offer to “let” anybody who wants to, buy Medicaid coverage for him or herself...  http://lidblog.com/obamacare-fix/

The terrorist was shot dead but his
case is still being litigated --- and for good reason

by James McAuley
{jewishworldreview.com} ~ This was the case that started it all: The first chapter in France's struggle with homegrown Islamist violence.

In 2012, Between March 11 and March 19, Mohammed Merah, a 23-year-old French citizen of Algerian origins, murdered seven people: first three French police officers, and then a rabbi and three children at a Jewish school in the southwestern city of Toulouse.

The Merah affair was a shock at the time - pointing to an attacker raised in France rather than a militant who slipped into the country to carry out previous Islamist-linked strikes for groups such as Lebanon's Hezbollah or factions that grew out of Algeria's civil war in the 1990s.

In the years since Merah's bloodshed, the episode has come reflect the elements in many other recent attacks: youth against authority, Islamist extremist against Jew and, perhaps most of all, French against French.

The Merah case is now being litigated in Paris, although Merah was killed at the end of his rampage.

On the stand now are two of his alleged accomplices: Fettah Malki, 34, accused of providing Merah with a weapon, and Merah's older brother, Abdelkader Merah, 35, suspected of helping his sibling steal the scooter later used in the attacks. The elder Merah was born in France, and Malki came to France from Algeria when he was 11.

But for many, the trial is about more than seeking convictions. Its real purpose is seeking answers about the origins of a relentless wave of terrorism in France - ranging from major carnage in Paris and Nice to smaller strikes such as a knife slashing that killed two people in Marseille last Sunday.

"This trial is historic," said Patrick Klugman, a lawyer representing Samuel Sandler, the father and grandfather of Merah's Jewish victims, in opening remarks Monday.

"Merah is dead, but it is essential to understand what happened for the memory of the victims and their families," he added.

Jonathan Sandler, a rabbi, was 30 when he was killed. His sons, Gabriel and Arieh Sandler, were 5 and 3, respectively.

If convicted, Malki faces up to 20 years in prison, and Abdelkader Merah up to a life sentence. Verdicts are expected Nov. 3.

In recent years, no other country in Western Europe has been hit by the same frequency of terrorist violence. Gilles Kepel, an acclaimed French political scientist, recently observed in a best-selling book that Islamist-inspired violence "is not exclusively French," but "the French case is stronger and deeper" than those of other neighboring countries.

Since the beginning of 2015 alone, nearly 240 people have been killed in attacks linked to Islamists groups such as the Islamic State. Significantly, the majority of perpetrators have been longtime legal residents in France or French citizens. Others have had passports from other European Union countries.

Youth radicalization has been a particularly perplexing problem for authorities in France, which has Western Europe's largest Muslim population.

More French citizens have decamped to fight for the Islamic State in Iraq, Syria or other locations across the Middle East. according to terrorism experts. Of the roughly 6,000 fighters who left Europe to join the Islamic State, approximately 1,800 were French.

Merah's attack - believed linked to al-Qaida - predated the emergence of the Islamic State.

"But his actions have inspired a lot of radicalized individuals . . . He was someone who by his actions encouraged so many others to follow," said Jean-Charles Brisard, director of the Paris-based Center for the Analysis of Terrorism, a security think tank.

Notably, police records show that Merah was mentioned in social media posts by many in the immediate circle of Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the Belgian-Moroccan mastermind of the November 2015 Paris attacks, which claimed 130 lives.

For others - especially France's Jewish community,the largest in Europe - the Merah case foreshadowed the anti-Semitism often on display in a number of other terrorist attacks that followed.

In January 2015, following the attack on the offices of the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, a related terrorist affiliated with the Islamic State targeted a kosher supermarket on the outskirts of Paris, killing four people.

In April 2017, Sarah Halimi, an orthodox Jewish schoolteacher, was murdered in her Paris apartment and thrown from the window. Those attacks and others spurred a spike in emigration to Israel by French Jews, although departures have recently dropped.

"This trial is also about anti-Semitism that kills and wants to put our modern societies in danger," said Francis Kalifat, the director of the Representative Council of French-Jewish Institutions, France's largest Jewish advocacy organization, in a statement.

After my election I have more flexibility.” —Barack liar-nObama’s open mic assurance to former Russian President Dmitri Medvedev, March 26, 2012

          Progressive ideology is about winning — by any means necessary. Thus, the same Russians Barack liar-nObama’s administration accommodated for years — from liar-Hillary Clinton’s “reset button”and liar-nObama’s cancellation of missile defense systems for Poland and the Czech Republic, to allowing the Kremlin to become a Middle East powerbroker, and liar-nObama mocking Mitt Romney’s correct 2012 assertion that Russia was our foremost geopolitical foe — quickly became the mortal enemies that orchestrated Trump’s election victory. In short, they told us, “collusion” between Trump administration figures and Russia was the primary reason liar-Hillary lost. Yet as we are only beginning to learn, liar-nObama administration collusion with Russia might constitute the greatest scandal in the history of the republic.
          Andrew McCarthy sums it up. The liar-nObama administration “green-lighted the transfer of control over one-fifth of American uranium-mining capacity to Russia, a hostile regime — and specifically to Russia’s state-controlled nuclear-energy conglomerate, Rosatom,” he explains. “Worse, at the time the administration approved the transfer, it knew that Rosatom’s American subsidiary was engaged in a lucrative racketeering enterprise that had already committed felony extortion, fraud, and money-laundering offenses.”
          Who approved the transfer? The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, (CFIUS) an intergovernmental panel representing 14 departments and offices, including the Treasury, the U.S. Departments of Energy, Commerce, State, Homeland Security, Justice, Trade, Science and Technology Policy and Defense. CFIUS is tasked with determining whether transactions and investments by foreign companies align with national security, and they unanimously approved the deal — despite the reality that when they were considering it, nine members of the Canadian company Uranium One that would receive the uranium contributed more than $145 million to the liar-Clinton Foundation.
          Moreover, while the Russians were transferring control of Uranium One to its state-controlled nuclear-energy conglomerate Rosatom via three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records reveal Uranium One chairman Ian Telfer also donated $2.35 million to the liar-Clinton Foundation. And in 2010, liar-Bill Clinton received a $500,000 speaking fee from Renaissance Capital, a Kremlin-linked bank that was promoting Uranium One stock.
          Telfer’s contributions were not publicly disclosed, violating an agreement liar-Hillary Clinton had struck with the liar-nObama White House to publicly identify all donors.
          In terms of concealment, she was not alone. The liar-nObama administration knew “congressional Republicans were trying to stop the transfer,” McCarthy explains. “Consequently, the Justice Department concealed what it knew. DOJ allowed the racketeering enterprise to continue compromising the American uranium industry rather than commencing a prosecution that would have scotched the transfer.”
          It was a racketeering enterprise conducted by Vadim Mikerin, the Russian official in charge of Tenam USA, which is the American arm of Rosatom subsidiary Tenex. Following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1992, Tenex was given control of the sale and transportation of blended-down uranium from dis-assembled Russian nuclear warheads to U.S. nuclear providers. Mikerin was extorting those U.S. companies, forcing them to pay inflated prices, and leaving them vulnerable to blackmail by Russia.
          To facilitate the process, Mikerin secured the help of an unnamed lobbyist who became uncomfortable with the seemingly illegal arrangement, and notified the FBI. As a result he became an informant. At the time, the FBI was headed by Robert Mueller and the investigation was supervised by current Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe. It was centered in Tenam’s home base of Maryland, whose U.S. attorney was Rod Rosenstein. It ended in late 2015, during the tenure of former FBI Director James Comey.
          The FBI had proof of Mikerin’s racketeering in 2010, when any disclosure of it would have killed the uranium deal. Yet they let the scheme continue until 2014 when the agency quietly allowed Mikerin to plead guilty to one count of money-laundering conspiracy, courtesy of Rosenstein, whose office chose to prosecute Milkerin under the far less onerous section 371 of the U.S. penal code rather than section 1956 which could have imprisoned him for up to 20 years on each count of racketeering. The deal was cosigned by the DOJ’s Fraud Section, then run by Andrew Weissmann — one of the attorneys Mueller selected to investigate Trump.
          While the DOJ slow-walked this prosecution, Russia gained complete control of Rosatom. And despite Nuclear Regulatory Commission assurances made in 2011 to a highly concerned Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY) that Rosatom could not export uranium out of the country, The New York Times revealed Uranium One exported it to Canada using the licenses of a proxy transport company to do so. Moreover, where the uranium is headed remains unknown.
          What about the lobbyist/informant? He was issued a gag order and threatened with prosecution by the Loretta Lynch-led Justice Department when he pursued a civil action that would have revealed information about the sale. He is currently represented by attorney Victoria Toensing, who insists her client has “specific information about contributions and bribes to various entities and people in the United States.”
          Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) is investigating the deal, and has sent letters to 10 federal agencies explaining he remains unconvinced there was no national security concerns associated with it, despite assurances to the contrary. He also pushed to have the gag order lifted.
          Which brings us to U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions. While the DOJ finally announced late Wednesday night the gag order has been lifted, Sessions apparently continues to countenance the agency’s refusal to turn over documents related to the infamous Christopher Steele dossier compiled by Fusion GPS that was subpoenaed by the House Intelligence Committee.
          On Tuesday, The Washington Post revealed the most likely reason for the DOJ’s stonewalling. In a bombshell exposé, the paper reported the liar-Clinton campaign and the DNC helped fund the dossier. The same dossier liar-Clinton may have given the FBI (who initially offered to pay for it themselves), the one that may be the sole basis by which liar-nObama administration officials justified the unmasking of Trump associates — and the entire rationale behind the Leftmedia’s orchestrated effort to convince Americans Trump’s presidency is illegitimate.
          The dossier’s disseminators? In the last two weeks, Fusion’s partners exercised their Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination during House Intelligence Committee meeting, and filed a complaint in federal court aimed at keeping their subpoenaed banking records secret.
          Regardless, Sessions continues to abide an investigation of Trump administration collusion with Russia, conducted by many of the same people who buried possible liar-nObama administration collusion. People like Robert Mueller who “has the means, motive and opportunity to obfuscate and distract from matters embarrassing to the FBI,” WSJ columnist Holman W. Jenkins Jr. astutely notes.
          America is facing an existential crisis, one where it appears the same institutions designed to provide law and order and national security are guilty of wholesale corruption — and possible treason. Either the Trump administration will root out the rot, or the electorate will be faced with the undeniable reality we live in a nation where “justice” consists of one set of laws for the rich and powerful, and another for everyone else. A nation where Congress conducts toothless hearings, those who should be investigated conduct the investigations, and utterly corrupt media censor anything inimical to their own interests and those of their ideological allies.
          Absolutely no one can justify the sale of the main ingredient used in nuclear weapons to the Russians. Either the swamp gets drained — or the entire nation drowns in it.  ~The Patriot Pos

Six years from now, Iran will be able to start manufacturing advanced centrifuges, enabling it to gradually cut down its one-year nuclear breakout time. At the same time, if not earlier, restrictions on Iran’s missile program will be terminated. The time to act is now, and not six years from now when the sunset clauses begin to take effect. It will be far harder to fix the deal once sunset clauses help Iran to permanently establish itself as a threshold nuclear state with the capability to manufacture and deliver nuclear warheads in a short period of time. Iran’s Foreign Minister Javad Zarif himself has stated that Iran will emerge from the deal with a stronger nuclear program...  http://www.defenddemocracy.org/testimony/the-presidents-iran-decision-next-steps

Intelligence Services Minister Israel Katz
{jpost.com} ~ Israel is willing to resort to military action to ensure Iran never acquires nuclear weapons, the intelligence minister said on Thursday in Japan... where he is seeking backing for US President Donald Trump's tougher line on Tehran.  Trump said on Oct. 13 he would not certify Iran is complying with an agreement on curtailing its nuclear program, signed by his predecessor, Barack liar-nObama, opening a 60-day window for Congress to act to reimpose sanctions. "If international efforts led these days by US President Trump don’t help stop Iran attaining nuclear capabilities, Israel will act militarily by itself," Intelligence Minister Israel Katz said in an interview in Tokyo. "There are changes that can be made to the agreement to ensure that they will never have the ability to have a nuclear weapon."... http://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Israel-willing-to-resort-to-military-action-to-stop-Iran-acquiring-nukes-508477

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ For the past few years, large social media and other online companies have been seeking to restrict or even criminalize content that could be construed as critical of Islam or Muslims... including when the material simply exposes the words and actions of radical Islamists. The recent attempt by the digital payment platform, PayPal, to forbid two conservative organizations -- Jihad Watch and the American Freedom Defense Initiative -- from continuing to use the service to receive donations, is a perfect case in point. Although PayPal reversed the ban, its initial move was part of an ongoing war against the free speech of counter-jihadists -- those working to expose the ideology, goals, tactics and strategies of Islamic supremacists, and who are trying to defeat or at least to deter the Islamic supremacist global agenda...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/11211/facebook-social-media-jihad

Alleged 'GOP donor' who funded
anti-Trump research remains a media mystery

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ An explosive new report on the infamous "Trump dossier" asserted three times that the tawdry files that were used by Democrats to try to take down Donald Trump started out as opposition research funded by an unnamed Republican donor.

But no media outlet has been able to confirm the identity of the supposed donor, or if he or she even exists.

The new report, published Tuesday night by the Washington Post, focuses on funding for the dossier from the liar-Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, which was not previously known. Information in the article is attributed anonymously to "people familiar with the matter" and nothing more.

The first mention of the GOP donor appears in the third paragraph. liar-Clinton and DNC lawyer Marc E. Elias "and his law firm, Perkins Coie, retained Democratic research firm Fusion GPS in April 2016 on behalf of the liar-Clinton campaign and the DNC," the story says. "Before that agreement, Fusion GPS's research into Trump was funded by an unknown Republican client during the GOP primary."

Elsewhere in the story, the alleged anonymous donor is referenced again as someone who paid Fusion GPS "to investigate the real estate magnate's background" during the Republican primaries.

A third reference to the alleged donor said that once he stopped paying for the research, "Elias, acting on behalf of the liar-Clinton campaign and the DNC, agreed to pay for the work to continue," which resulted in the Trump dossier.

Reports that there is an anonymous donor have never been confirmed, though many accept as fact that there was one. Democrats and some in the press are clinging to that assertion even more in the wake of the report that said it was Democrats that shaped the initial work into the dossier.

Trump said Wednesday on Twitter, "liar-Clinton campaign & DNC paid for research that led to the anti-Trump Fake News Dossier. The victim here is the President."

Christina Ginn, a producer for MSNBC, replied to his tweet, in part asserting that, "Republicans first funded the dossier."

Brian Fallon, a CNN political commentator and former spokesman for liar-Clinton, tweeted, "Some of the Republicans pouncing on dossier story tonight are surely in for a self-own when we learn who funded project during GOP primary."

Stories about an anonymous donor date back to a New York Times story in January, headlined, "How a sensational, unverified dossier became a crisis for Donald Trump."

Similar to the Post's story, the Times said there was a mysterious GOP donor who initiated the opposition research on Trump, "according to a person familiar with the effort."

The Times story said that "the identity of the donor is unclear," but described him or her as "a wealthy Republican donor who strongly opposed Mr. Trump" and "put up the money to hire a Washington research firm … to compile a dossier about the real estate magnate's past scandals and weaknesses."

The donor's "interest in financing the effort ended," according to the story, during the spring of 2016 when Trump became the presumptive GOP nominee.

From there, according to the Post piece, the liar-Clinton campaign and the DNC picked up the effort.

"I don't think the GOP funder has ever been identified, but I think there is one," one national politics reporter told the Washington Examiner.

Others doubt that there is in fact a GOP donor.

Journalists, including Byron York, chief political correspondent for the Washington Examiner, and Chuck Ross of the Daily Caller have attempted to track down the identity of the supposed donor, if he or she exists. Those attempts, however, have not led to a name. That has some thinking the donor is a fabrication.

"I don't believe the mad Republican donor theory," Mike Murphy, a veteran GOP strategist who ran Jeb Bush's Super PAC, told York in August. "They all talk to each other, and I think I would have heard about it. And I didn't."

Warren Tompkins, who chaired a pro-Marco Rubio PAC, told Ross of the Caller in August that he didn't have a clue either.

"I was not aware of this activity and frankly we had our hands full attempting to fend off the millions that Jeb's PAC dumped on Marco to be concerned with anything but that," he said.

Republican operatives supporting Ted Cruz and John Kasich said similar things.

The dossier has become a key focus of congressional investigations into Russia's interference in the election and allegations that the Trump campaign colluded with the Kremlin to influence the race.

Trump has repeatedly denied the accusations and on Oct. 19, before boarding Marine One in Washington, D.C., called the matter a "Russia hoax" created by Democrats as an "excuse" for losing the election.

Asked about the alleged Republican donor, he seemed to suggest he doesn't fully believe one exists but said he might have a guess.

"Well they say it began with the Republicans. I think I would know but I won't say. It'll be determined." He added, "Yes, it might've started with the Republicans early on in the primaries. I think I would know, but let's find out who it is. I'm sure that will come out. If I were to guess, I have one name in mind. It'll probably be revealed."

Trump Making Snowflakes Scream

By Craig Andresen – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

sno-1.jpg?width=123Does it seem like it’s been nearly a year since America started back on the road to being great again?

My how time flies when we’re winning. The Obama regime of 8 years seemed more like 8 decades, as we watched the systematic dismantling of our nation’s culture at the hands of a criminal enterprise, but candidate Trump said we might get tired of winning so much…

Sorry Mr. President…but we’re not even close to needing a nap yet.

As we approach the one year anniversary of the biggest liberal meltdown in history, there is something I need to do however…

YES! Trump Administration orders end of funding to UN to provide humanitarian aid to persecuted religious minorities in the Middle East

Instead, from now on, America will provide financial and humanitarian support “directly” to persecuted Christian communities in the Middle East through USAID rather than funneling it through the corrupt UN,” VP Mike Pence told Middle East Christian leaders gathered in the nation’s capital for the annual ‘In Defense of Christians’ summit.

Breitbart (h/t Liz) “President Donald Trump has directed the U.S. State Department to stop relying on the United Nations to provide humanitarian aid to persecuted religious minorities in the region.”

“My friends, those days are over,” Pence said, adding that the Obama administration paid more than one billion dollars for humanitarian aid, with the majority of the funding funneled through the U.N. “Yet the United Nations has too often failed to help the most vulnerable communities, especially religious minorities,” Pence said. “The result has been that countless people continue to suffer and struggle needlessly.”

Pence called it a “sad reality” that the main U.N. presence in terror-ridden places like Syria and Iraq is their flag posted on abandoned buildings in places where persecuted Christians are not even present. “And while faith-based groups with proven track records and deep roots in these communities are more than willing to assist, the United Nations too often denies their funding requests,” Pence said.

“Our fellow Christians and all who are persecuted in the Middle East should not have to rely on multinational institutions when America can help them directly,” Pence said, announcing Trump’s order to the State Department to “stop funding ineffective relief efforts at the United Nations.”

“And from this day forward, America will provide support directly to persecuted communities through USAID,” he said. Pence concluded his remarks by citing scripture, specifically Hebrew 13:5-6 in the New Testament: “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Michigan: Muslim arrested with weapons cache admitted support for Islamic State

An update on this post – Terror investigation nabs Muslim with cache of unregistered weapons in Ypsilanti – ignored by most media.

Yousef Mohammad Ramadan

Source: FBI uncovers bomb pics, ISIS boasts during latest terror investigation

An Ypsilanti man arrested by the FBI’s counterterrorism team in August said he was an Islamic State supporter, admitting he made pipe bombs and watched terrorist propaganda videos, according to federal records obtained by The Detroit News.

Yousef Mohammad Ramadan also boasted that committing a terrorist attack in the United States is easy compared to overseas.

Search warrant records offer new insight into a counterterrorism investigation shrouded in secrecy and help explain why Ramadan was removed from a Royal Jordanian Airlines flight in August at Detroit Metropolitan Airport.

The records also reveal Ramadan is at the center of the latest counter-terrorism investigation involving a Metro Detroit supporter of the Islamic State group, also known as ISIS. His arrest in late August came days before terror suspect Sebastian Gregerson was sentenced to federal prison.

“It is not uncommon for someone to be so fervent in their beliefs to boast and talk about it,” said Seamus Hughes, deputy director of George Washington University’s Program on Extremism, who has interviewed numerous people tied to the Islamic State. “They are not shy.”

Ramadan, 28, has not been charged with a terrorism-related crime and the status of the investigation was unclear Wednesday. The filings came more than a month after the former security guard was indicted on two counts of knowingly possessing a firearm with an obliterated serial number, a five-year felony.

He is being held without bond.

FBI spokesman Tim Wiley declined comment.

“We will be filing a written response to the defense motion,” said Gina Balaya, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Detroit.

Dozens of pages of search warrant records were filed in federal court Wednesday in a bid by Ramadan’s legal team to suppress evidence seized during the investigation and statements the man made while being questioned by investigators. His court-appointed lawyers allege Ramadan was assaulted by investigators and denied access to an attorney.

Ramadan was trying to fly from Detroit Metropolitan Airport to Amman, Jordan, on Aug. 15 with the ultimate destination of Israel, his lawyer wrote in a filing Wednesday. Before the plane could depart, investigators searched his checked baggage.

Inside, investigators found pepper spray, knives, a stun gun, black masks, two-way radios, a gas mask, a tactical vest and other items, according to a search warrant affidavit filed in federal court.

A secondary inspection uncovered numerous electronic devices, including laptops, iPhones and storage devices.

Investigators questioned Ramadan about the stun gun and other items found in the luggage.

“Ramadan could not give an answer and became very nervous,” FBI Special Agent Ryan Schanberger wrote in a search warrant affidavit.

Based on Ramadan’s response, investigators searched the electronic storage devices.

Investigators found videos of Ramadan shooting pistols and rifles, including a sniper rifle. They also found photos and videos of pipe bombs and propaganda videos and photos related to the Islamic State, including videos of fighters wearing black masks similar to those found in Ramadan’s luggage, according to Schanberger.

FBI agents showed Ramadan a photo obtained from one of his electronic devices. The photo showed what appeared to be a homemade, improvised explosive device, or pipe bomb, according to the filing.

“Ramadan stated that it was like a large firework that would make a loud bang when detonated, and that these items were sometimes used to throw at soldiers overseas,” the agent wrote.

Agents asked Ramadan how long it took to build the device.

“About one hour,” Ramadan said.

He immediately recanted, however, saying it would take one hour if he had all the components, according to the filing.

Ramadan said he made explosive devices for “educational purposes” while overseas and tested one by throwing it against a wall, according to the filing.

He acknowledged owning the items found in the luggage. Ramadan said he bought the items for personal protection and for making YouTube videos, court records show.

Ramadan had multiple YouTube channels. One, named “WB.88Guns,” contained seven videos posted between November 2016 and February 2017.

The videos show an individual shooting or handling various types of firearms, including a sniper rifle, according to the filing.

Five of the videos were shot outdoors in arid environments.

Ramadan told FBI agents he owned three weapons, including two rifles and a Glock pistol he had placed in a storage unit before arriving at the airport. Ramadan, however, did not disclose owning another pistol that was registered to him, the agent wrote.

Ramadan also was questioned about the Islamic State propaganda videos and photos found on his electronic devices.

“Ramadan stated that he likes and watches all aspects of combat footage,” the agent wrote. “He claimed that he does support ISIS’ goal of establishing … an Islamic State, but that he does not support their methods of violence to achieve that goal, instead preferring a peaceful approach to converting non-believers into the Muslim religion and/or forming an Islamic State.”

Investigators told Ramadan that watching violent ISIS videos could prompt him to commit a violent act.

“Ramadan responded by saying that if he ever wanted to commit an attack he certainly would not have to travel overseas to do it,” the agent wrote. “Ramadan stated that he would do it in the United States as it would be much easier to accomplish than overseas.

“Ramadan stated that even if his weapons were confiscated, he could simply buy more weapons off the street…,” the agent added. “Ramadan further stated that a domestic attack would still be viewed and praised as a huge victory by ISIS.”

He would never wage an attack overseas, especially in Israel, the father of four small children told agents.

“Because the Israelis retaliate against every family member for the acts of the perpetrator, even though they had no involvement,” Ramadan told investigators, according to the court filing.

Swamp is deeper and darker than one can imagine

NOTE:  When writing about God and Jesus, The Daily Jot means YHVH as God and Yeshua Ha Mashiach as Jesus--the actual original names and the true nature and character of them.
  
Friday, October 27, 2017
Reports of late are indicating that the corruption in the Democratic Party in collusion with Russia is akin to organized crime where influence was bought and sold and the weight of the US government was exploited to justify spying on a presidential candidate and other American citizens. We saw that the power of the IRS was used to suppress conservative free speech and the good will operations of Christian charities. Planned Parenthood was favored with protective regulations and taxpayer funding. When candidate Donald Trump said the swamp needed to be drained, however, he likely had no idea how deep and dark it is; what a monumental and life endangering task it would be. But there is more.
 
Draining the swamp is bipartisan. Trump quickly found out that many of the Republicans on Capital Hill were part of the problem, not the solution. The Senate and House hierarchy set out to oppose, block and undermine the very agenda that the people of the United States elected Trump to accomplish. The rift within the establishment Republican stronghold against Trump continues to play itself out as Senators are so uncomfortable that they are opting to not run for reelection rather than face a would-be angry constituency. We have witnessed a globalist cabal fight Trump at every juncture to undermine his "America First" agenda-Even to the point of former President George W Bush admonishing Trump for putting America and Americans first. That swamp is deep and dark.
 
A year ago just days before the election the FBI reopened (then subsequently said "nothing to see here") the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email scandal and a host of other issues. The Daily Jot reported "Her pay for play influence bribery scheme, acceptance of millions of dollars from terrorist sponsoring Islamic states such as Saudi Arabia, and a host of other self-enriching scandals appear to expose Hillary Clinton as a governmental organized crime boss. Clinton's careless and seemingly criminal administration of America's most sensitive secrets, however, may be the final link that would make even the staunchest of Democrats finally believe that where there is smoke, there is hellfire." Think about this list.
 
Add on top of it the recent reports that have been confirmed about Clinton, the ex-"president," and so on. Then add another layer of elected Republican congressmen and senators who are obstructing Trump's agenda rather than see their globalist gravy train come to an end. Indeed the swamp needs to be drained and President Trump faces an overwhelming task, for as Jesus said in Matthew 15:19, "For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies," and as is written in Jeremiah 17:9, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: Who can know it?" I'm not sure any of us know the depth and darkness at the heart of the DC swamp.
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!

Corey Feldman Asks Public for Help Exposing Hollywood Pedophilia, Says He Fears for His Life

By Derrick Broze. In the wake of recent sexual abuse allegations against Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein, actor Corey Feldman has stepped back into the limelight with a crowdfunding campaign to help expose Hollywood pedophilia. In a tweet sent out at 5 am on Wednesday, Feldman released a YouTube video announcing the campaign with the text, “U asked 4 it….U got it…LETS DO THIS!”

In the new video Feldman describes how his efforts to expose Hollywood pedophilia have brought him heartache and caused several of his band mates to quit out of fear for their lives. “I am very alone, but I need to protect myself and my family,” Feldman stated. “What I am proposing is a plan that I believe can literally change the entertainment system as we know it, and I believe that I can also bring down, potentially, a pedophile ring that I have been aware of since I was a child.”

Feldman’s plan is to raise enough money to film a movie about his life which will reveal the truth about Hollywood pedophilia. “In his book, Coreyography, Corey describes what happened but it isn’t clear who exactly the predators are,” the campaign reads. “The best way, he feels, in order to tell the whole story, is for Corey to come forward in the form of a film about his life.” The campaign has raised over $20,000 since launching Wednesday morning.

Feldman goes on to say that he can name at least six names and that the crimes lead all the way to the head of a Hollywood studio. “Rumors have been told, stories have been made up about me. All because they fear what I know as the truth.”

The new video comes only days after Feldman and his touring band were detained and harassed by the Mangham Police Department in Louisiana on Saturday for legal possession of cannabis. He was charged with one count of possession of marijuana and a traffic charge. However, Feldman clarified the situation via Twitter, stating that he was not arrested for cannabis.
