A Most Fictitious Farewell…Now Get Out!

By Craig Andresen – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

ofw-1.jpg?width=228Just this past Tuesday night, a spectacle of spectacles took place in Chicago. In what is arguably the nation’s biggest gun-free…target rich zone, where more than 750 murders took place in 2016, a 58% spike over the previous year, and where a total of 4,368 people were shot last year…

Obama gave his farewell speech.

For the record, in the liberal gun-free Mecca of Chicago…more than 90 people have been shot so far, since January 1st of this year.

But there he was, Mr. Gun Control, and the nation’s leading firearms salesman for 8 years running, licking himself all over…much like my dog does in front of company…telling the assembled socialist collective what a great job he’s done leading our nation…from behind.

Frankly, I was surprised he didn’t drag his butt across the carpet when he was finished, but let’s have a look at some of the highlights from that spreading of manure.

 Tom Cotton Takes on Immigration — Illegal AND 
 Legal 
Ewksoe7kde3REMVqYiyEkLvMbri9HLnovTSZce-S9iFbAOBAWEyaqmMW7xgzWM50jrvXe6pBb0UqRsrGr9FfLwUX__LPmlEOyC8piTOxDrZYZ1pg0r9iRp-TyUU_PA=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
Arnold Ahlert: In a straightforward New York Times op-ed column, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) made it clear that Donald Trump intends to make our immigration system work for the people most affected by the current chaos. "For too long, our immigration policy has skewed toward the interests of the wealthy and powerful: Employers get cheaper labor, and professionals get cheaper personal services like housekeeping," Cotton states. "We now need an immigration policy that focuses less on the most powerful and more on everyone else."
          Cotton makes it clear that both illegal and legal immigration are part of the reform mix, noting that Trump "has a clear mandate not only to stop illegal immigration, but also to finally cut the generation-long influx of low-skilled immigrants that undermines American workers."
          There is a tepid move toward accommodating the new reality. Last Wednesday, co-sponsors Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Rep. Scott Peters (D-CA) introduced the "Protect and Grow American Jobs Act," aimed at revamping the H-1B visa system American corporations have used to hire foreign workers willing to work for lower wages than their American counterparts.
          The new proposal addresses a loophole created by Congress in 1998 when it simultaneously approved a visa cap increase, but prohibited American worker displacement if a firm employed 15% or more foreign workers. Congress also required companies to show "good faith" effort to hire American workers. But the bill undercut that effort: if a visa-holding foreign worker had a master's degree, or was paid at least $60,000, he could replace an American employee. Issa's bill raises the pay threshold to $100,000 indexed to inflation, and eliminates the master's degree exemption completely.
          The tepid aspect? There are three levels of H1-B workers, ranging from level 1 beginners to the level 3 prevailing wage earners this bill addresses. Yet those level 3 workers represent the 50th percentile of all workers — meaning plenty of the low-skill, low-wage workers Cotton wants to rein in remain unaffected by the legislation. During his campaign, Trump promised to take on companies "importing low-wage workers on H-1B visas to take jobs from young college-trained Americans."
          So what's going on? Issa, et al, represent those interested in the appearance of H-1B visa reform. Trump wants genuine reform. How this ultimately plays out will be a great indication of who will prevail in a power struggle between Republicans who remain beholden to the wealthy and powerful, and a president-elect who has promised to drain the swamp and put Americans first.
          Bet on Trump for the simplest of reasons: millions of Americans are fed up with the odious status quo, and this is his signature issue. He is not about to jeopardize his standing among the public to accommodate the Ruling Class aspirations of either party.
          Cotton eviscerates that segment of the GOP and their industry allies who bemoan the shortage of low-skilled labor, and insist the problem can only be solved with immigrants. "These same industries contend that stricter immigration enforcement will further shrink the pool of workers and raise their wages," Cotton states. "They argue that closing our borders to inexpensive foreign labor will force employers to add benefits and improve workplace conditions to attract and keep workers already here. I have an answer to these charges: Exactly."
          It's critical to note that, for far too long, the game being played in Washington, DC, has been about tradeoffs. As columnist Mark Krikorian so aptly explains, the GOP has used the "'legal good/illegal bad' fallacy" to champion a faux reform consisting of tough border enforcement "accompanied by support for huge increases in immigration."
          Why? Americans have heard it all before. Low-skill legal and illegal immigrants are purportedly doing the jobs "Americans refuse to do" which is partially true, and legal, higher skill immigrants are alleviating a shortage of American STEM workers, which is a bold-faced lie.
          With regard to the former assertion, one suspects a substantial majority of Americans would abide a pecking order consisting of hiring Americans who won't refuse any job, followed by able-bodied adults without dependents (ABAWDs) being required to work as a condition of getting their welfare state benefits, with legal immigrants picking up the slack. With regard to the last group, putting some genuine teeth in Issa's bill would be a great place to start.
          "Our country, like any country, needs borders and must decide who and how many can cross those borders," Cotton explains. "We must make this decision with the well-being of all our citizens in mind. Today, that means a large reduction in legal immigration and a reorientation toward ultra-high-skill immigrants."
          Unsurprisingly, Democrats will reflexively fight all of it, because their quest for unassailable power depends on massive levels of immigration by foreigners who heavily favor big government. Thus Trump and the GOP should expect the usual accusations of racism, xenophobia and heartlessness arising from the Democrat/Leftmedia complex.
          Ignore them. From 1965 to the present, America abided a legal immigration policy that benefited the immigrant, not our nation. It also abided a virtual free-for-all with regard to illegals.
          Putting America first isn't racist, xenophobic or heartless. It's common sense patriotism, and it's about time that mindset had unabashed support from the White House and Congress, especially the GOP majority. If not? Bet on the 2018 mid-terms being another "drain the swamp" election — for recalcitrant GOPers. ~The Patriot Post

Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi
{freebeacon.com} ~ Iran is demanding further “compensation” from the United States following claims America violated the nuclear agreement by passing new sanctions on the Islamic Republic... according to comments by senior Iranian officials following meetings with the liar-nObama administration in Vienna. The demand for further concessions by the liar-nObama administration comes on the heels of reports that the United States has deflated the total amount of cash, gold, and other assets provided to the Islamic Republic during the past several years. The sum is believed to be in excess of $10 billion. Iran has threatened to retaliate against the United States in recent weeks following the passage late last year by Congress of the Iran Sanctions Act, or ISA, which will continue to economically penalize Iran for the next 10 years...I agree with Rex Tillison issues with Israel and the Arab nations that Iran is their common enemy.  http://freebeacon.com/national-security/iran-demands-compensation-u-s-breach-nuke-deal/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=34a14ecac3-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_01_11&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-34a14ecac3-45611665

{rickwells.us} ~ Lou Dobbs starts the conversation with an observation of the nasty tone that has been adopted by Democrats, particularly those in the Senate, who are taking their cheap shots at Senator Jeff Sessions... Describing Senator Sessions as, “the nicest guy, the smartest guy, one of the most absolutely exemplary public servants in the country.” Tammy Bruce finds it interesting because Senator Sessions is so well like. The opposition Senators “know this man, and so they know that what they’re doing is false. They know it’s completely theater. They also know that they really won’t be able to put a glove on him, that he’s going to be confirmed and he’ll be an excellent Attorney General. On the topic of the smear being run by CNN and BuzzFeed against Mr. Trump, Dobbs is clearly going out of his way not to mention them by name on the air and provide reward them with publicity in response to their inappropriate and vile actions. He shares some of what he calls the “editorial addendum that was provided by the “editors of this outlet that carries these unverified allegations, which is really giving them more currency than they deserve.”...  http://rickwells.us/dobbs-bruce-meltdown-contemptible-left-hearings-disgraceful-dishonest-theater/

{dailysignal.com} ~ Observers of this week’s confirmation hearings for the post of U.S. attorney general might think it odd to see Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., rewind the clock to a single voter fraud case from the 1980s... Under persistent questioning, Sessions has had to defend his decision to prosecute a case of brazen voter fraud—something that was his job to do.

{wnd.com} ~ The judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals are often considered among the most liberal in the U.S. After all, they were the ones who allowed a homosexual judge to rule that a vote by Californians against homosexual marriage should be thrown out... But now, three members of the panel have sided with a man who was arrested for reading a Bible on the sidewalk outside a state building. WND reported the state accused two men of engaging in a demonstration or gathering, illegally, outside the state driver’s license office in Hemet, California. The charges were prompted by one of the men who was reading a Bible aloud near a line of people waiting to enter. “The prosecution failed to meet its burden of proof that our clients committed a crime when they read the Bible aloud in front of a line of people,” Robert Tyler, general counsel for Advocates for Faith & Freedom, which worked on the case, said at the time...  http://www.wnd.com/2017/01/liberal-9th-circuit-judges-side-with-man-reading-bible/

Pro-Israel evangelicals
are escaping AIPAC's shadow
by Eli Lake

{jewishworldreview.com} ~ Since its founding in 2006, the country's largest evangelical pro-Israel lobby, Christians United for Israel, has been a junior partner to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or Aipac, when it comes to lobbying Congress.

While there were a few times when the group pushed issues independent of AIPAC, for the most part it has followed the more established lobby's lead in Washington. With Donald Trump about to be sworn in as president, this is beginning to change.

David Brog, the founding executive director of Christians United for Israel, or CUFI, and an active member of its board, told me last week that his organization is better positioned to drive the pro-Israel agenda in Trump's Washington than AIPAC, which has embraced a bipartisan approach for decades to its lobbying for the U.S.-Israel relationship.

This is important because AIPAC is on the record in support of a two-state solution. CUFI, on the other hand, does not take a position on the matter. And while AIPAC has opposed President Barack liar-nObama's efforts to publicly pressure Israel to end settlement activity in the West Bank, it has not supported legislation, for example, to defund the Palestinian Authority. CUFI on the other hand does support such proposals.

"AIPAC's assets were most important during the liar-nObama administration, unfortunately we learned the limits of those assets during the liar-nObama administration too," Brog said. "We believe we have great assets that will be most valuable during a Trump administration, this is not only connections, but speaking for a critical base. I can't think of anyone else on this issue that better represents a base that voted for Trump."

On this, Brog has a good point. CUFI claims 3.3 million members, most of whom are evangelical Christians. The evangelicals supported Trump early in the Republican primaries and came out in large numbers for him in the general election.

CUFI also has strong personal ties to the incoming administration. Gary Bauer, who runs CUFI's Washington lobbying arm, is a personal friend of Vice President-elect Mike Pence. His son is a senior aide to Pence. In 2014, Pence traveled to Israel with a CUFI delegation. Trump's incoming adviser for international negotiations, Jason Greenblatt, left the Republican convention this summer to address CUFI's annual meeting.

AIPAC is a bipartisan organization and it has Republican members who have influence within the party. It is also the best funded foreign policy lobby in Washington. Between Aipac and its sister organization, the American Israel Education Foundation, it has revenue in excess of $125 million annually in recent years. CUFI doesn't release its financial figures, but officials with the group say its budget is a fraction of AIPAC's. Add to this AIPAC's stable of seasoned lobbyists, who often understand the history of legislation and policies effecting Israel better than legislative staffers and members of Congress.

Yet sources within the Trump transition team tell me the group is not favored inside the president-elect's inner circle. This is in part because AIPAC issued a statement following Trump's address to its annual policy conference in March that distanced the organization from what it said were the candidate's ad-hominem attacks against President Barack liar-nObama. But this is also because many Republicans have grown frustrated with AIPAC's handling of the Iran issue. In 2015, every Republican voted against the Iran deal in Congress, but AIPAC only persuaded four Democratic senators to join them. Ultimately, Congress failed to stop the deal that was bitterly opposed by Israel's government.

Brog told me that he expects Trump's approach to Israel policy will break away from what he called "a model that pays excessive homage to bipartisanship and even fetishizes it."

In this sense, Brog expects Trump will be less beholden to the orthodoxy of the two-state solution, a policy supported by both parties since the early 1990s when the Oslo peace negotiations began. "Whatever one's position on the two-state solution is, most Israelis and pragmatists recognize it's not something that can be implemented today. We will see in the Trump administration, an administration that recognizes that reality," he said.

Brog said he appreciates AIPAC's efforts in Washington. He credited the group for helping persuade more than 100 Democrats last week to break with liar-nObama and support a measure condemning the U.N. Security Council resolution the U.S. declined to veto last month that negated Israel's claims to East Jerusalem.

"Where we agree we are thrilled to partner with AIPAC, they are the best of partners," he said. That feeling is mutual. An AIPAC spokesman, Marshall Wittman, told me over the weekend, "We work with CUFI very cooperatively and productively and believe they make an invaluable contribution to strengthening the U.S.-Israel relationship."

Nonetheless, Brog also said CUFI will push for issues in Congress even when AIPAC does not. "Where we disagree, we will go it alone," he said.

This is already beginning to play out. Last month, CUFI launched a new campaign to lobby for legislation from Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham to defund the Palestinian Authority. Consider it the group's declaration of independence from AIPAC.

{familysecuritymatters.org} ~ The Jewish "settlements" in Judea-Samaria actually, villages, suburbs and urban neighborhoods are illegal and must be demolished, and their inhabitants (about 750,000 people) should be expelled... Actually, under the League of Nations Mandate for Palestine, which still remains legally in force despite Britain's abandonment of its responsibilities under the Mandate, Jews have every right to live in these territories, and Israel has the legal obligation of helping them to "settle" there. The Mandate document which defines the obligations of the Palestine "Administration" instructs it to facilitate the settlement of Jews on "state or waste" lands throughout Palestine-which is what Israel has done. International law requires the successor government of a territory to fulfill the legal obligations of the previous administering state when that state withdraws from the territory, as Britain did unilaterally in 1948. And that is the very most that Israel has done in Judea-Samaria since these territories came under its administration in 1967...  http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/falsehoods-lies-and-more-falsehoods-part-ii?f=must_reads

The Arabs had previously refused to accept the armistice line as a border, presumably because agreeing to it might preclude the Palestinians from trying to get the rest of "Palestine", defined by them as "from the river Jordan to the sea Mediterranean" -- meaning all of Israel. Just look at any Palestinian map -- It is identical to the shape of the entirety of Israel. According to Res. 2334, not only are Jewish settlements are illegal, overnight, effectively making their Jewish residents criminals, but the Jewish Quarter, the Western Wall and the Temple Mount in Jerusalem's Old City -- the heart of Judaism for nearly 4,000 years and the seat of Christianity for more than 2,000 years -- are now grotesquely considered "occupied territory"...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9730/un-holocaust-treachery

Sessions Leaves Durbin Wondering What

{rickwells.us} ~ A highlight of Senator Jeff Sessions’ testimony during his confirmation hearings before his Senate colleagues was his reversal of the sanctimonious Senator Dick Durbin’s attempts to portray him as a heartless demagogue with an agenda... The ever-pandering anti-American blowhard from Illinois said in his comments that were ultimately part of his hybrid commentary/ question. Clearly Durbin attempted to portray Senator Sessions in a negative light but what he actually did for those who are opposed to the scofflaw practices and corruption of the Democrat regime is to compile a list of reasons why Sessions is an excellent, principled choice for Attorney General.

When Politics Trumps National Security:
Was Russia Behind the DNC/liar-Clinton Hacks?
by C. Mitchell Shaw
Q5t0AvuBfvaOl4AzzwhF8XUfvsx6chxDMIvtiCm9KA-aJ-phTv9jN6HsGGQXqyW9aGS4eyF4rn_o-a0CumOBmzvqf8VpBi4ED-m0AUDzgaMzezZNo0EhOcqhTAKclLmvrOM02KcqBv7m75K_zVnD=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
{thenewamerican.com} ~ When President liar-nObama used the waning days of his presidential power to expel 35 Russian intelligence operatives as well as sanctioning five Russian entities and four individuals last week, he said his actions were “a necessary and appropriate response to efforts to harm U.S. interests in violation of established international norms of behavior.” His claim that “Russia’s actions” were planned and executed to “interfere with the U.S. election process” was based on a Joint Analysis Report (JAR) by DHS and the FBI released the day before liar-nObama’s sanctions of Russia. But is that report correct?
 
There is little doubt that Russian hackers have been involved in both cyber-espionage and cyber-sabotage against the United States in the past and probably in the present. In early November 2014, The New American reported on Russian hackers — likely state-sponsored — hacking the systems of the White House itself. That hack — which was discovered by an unnamed “ally” of the United States — resulted in many computer systems in the White House being offline for days while the software used in the attack was removed and passwords were reset.
 
A week after reporting on that hack, The New American reported that Russian hackers — again, likely state-sponsored — had penetrated critical systems in the United States that control vital parts of the nation's infrastructure, including "complex industrial operations such as oil and gas pipelines, power transmission grids, water distribution and filtration systems, wind turbines and even some nuclear plants" and infected those systems with a piece of malware dubbed "BlackEnergy." As we reported then, the malware would allow hackers to remotely shut down or destroy these vital systems, creating chaos and causing untold damage to not only our infrastructure, but also our economy.
 
What is interesting in comparing those two cases to the claims of the recent JAR that Russia attempted to “interfere with the U.S. election process” by hacking the DNC and liar-Clinton campaign is that in neither of those previous cases were any sanctions issued nor was anyone expelled from the country. To make that comparison stand out in sharper contrast, it should be noted that one of the tools the JAR claims was used in the alleged “election
 
As this writer wrote about the White House hack at the time:
This is not an isolated incident. Over the past several years, Russia has been responsible for multiple, sustained attacks on computer systems belonging to governments and security firms with government contracts, according to a report by FireEye Inc. From the Wall Street Journal, "The report is one of four recent assessments by cybersecurity companies, buttressed by reports from Google Inc. and U.S. intelligence agencies, pointing to Russian sponsorship of a skilled hacking campaign dating back to 2007. Targets included NATO, governments of Russia's neighbors, and U.S. defense contractors Science Applications International Corp. and Academi LLC, the U.S. security firm previously known as Blackwater." FireEye has dubbed the cyber-weapon used by the Russians "APT28."
And:
The types of information Russia is targeting would give it a military advantage in the case of conflict. The FireEye report states, "since at least 2007, APT28 has been targeting insider information related to governments, militaries, and security organisations that would likely benefit the Russian government." It's much like the old strategy of football teams trying to get their hands on a rival's playbook. If Russia knows the strengths and weaknesses of other nations, it would be in a better position to act aggressively.
APT28 is a “Spear Phishing” tool which, as the JAR explains, “is known for leveraging domains that closely mimic those of targeted organizations and tricking potential victims into entering legitimate credentials.” The JAR goes on to say, “APT28 actors relied heavily on shortened URLs in their spearphishing email campaigns” and that the hackers using APT28 along with another tool known as APT29. “set up operational infrastructure to obfuscate their source infrastructure, host domains and malware for targeting organizations, establish command and control nodes, and harvest credentials and other valuable information from their targets.” Spear Phishing is a more focused form of Phishing an e-mail attack used to fool people into clicking a link they believe to be legitimate, but which leads to a fake address.
 
The gist of the report is that Russian hackers working under orders from the Kremlin used APT28 and APT29 to direct a Spear Phishing attack on both the DNC and the liar-Clinton campaign for the purpose of leaking the stolen data in an effort to discredit liar-Clinton. The implication, though it is not clearly stated in the report, is that Putin wanted Trump in the White House.
 
Left out of the JAR and the reporting of it by the liberal mainstream media is the simple fact that software is duplicable. Even if APT28 was used in a Spear Phishing attack — which is not certain — it would not prove that Russia was behind the attack. It would prove only that a tool sometimes used by Russians was used in the attack. Software is often left behind on systems after an attack. That software is then analyzed by computer security experts who are capable of copying it. The likelihood that both APT28 and APT29 are in the hands of nearly every tech-savvy government on the planet including the United States is very good. Not to mention the fact that hackers often “borrow” tools from other hackers. The mere presence or alleged presence of the tool is not a smoking gun.
 
Not only that, but both Julian Assange and former British ambassador Craig Murray of WikiLeaks deny that Russia was the source of the leaked DNC and liar-Clinton documents published by the whistleblower website. Casting further doubt on the veracity of the JAR, Mark Maunder, CEO and founder of WordFence, said the PHP code sample listed in the JAR is called “P.A.S. 3.1.0.” and is not only outdated, but is readily available to download from the Internet. WordFence designed a WordPress plugin to protect users of the blogging platform.
 
In a blog post after the release of the report, Maunder wrote, “Our security analysts spend a lot of time analyzing PHP malware, because WordPress is powered by PHP.” He added:
The PHP malware sample they have provided appears to be P.A.S. version 3.1.0 which is commonly available and the website that claims to have authored it says they are Ukrainian. It is also several versions behind the most current version of P.A.S which is 4.1.1b. One might reasonably expect Russian intelligence operatives to develop their own tools or at least use current malicious tools from outside sources.
And Jeffrey Carr, who is the founder and principal investigator of Project Grey Goose, which has investigated other Russian attacks on computer systems, also dismisses the claims that Russia was behind the leaked e-mails and documents that were so damning to the DNC and liar-Clinton campaign. He drew special attention to the fact that documents leaked by the hacker known as Guccifer 2.0 were supposedly stamped with metadata showing they were doctored by someone with the username Felix Dzerzhinsky the founder of the Soviet Secret Police. He wrote:
OK. Raise your hand if you think that a GRU or FSB officer would add Iron Felix’s name to the metadata of a stolen document before he released it to the world while pretending to be a Romanian hacker. Someone clearly had a wicked sense of humor.
The JAR makes big waves, but proves nothing it claims. One is expected to accept it on good faith; but people who lie and manipulate data for political purposes don’t garner very much good faith. As President-elect Trump pointed out in a press conference after the JAR was made public, “I just want them to be sure, because it's a pretty serious charge, and I want them to be sure. And if you look at the weapons of mass destruction, that was a disaster, and they were wrong.” It is now known that when the intelligence community stated that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, it was a political ploy to involve the U.S. in a war in Iraq, which the American people did not support.
 
This appears to be more of that.
 
Remember that when Russia was the prime and obvious suspect in both the White House cyber-espionage attack and the "BlackEnergy” cyber-sabotage attack, nothing was done. And yet now with little more than a veneer-thin film of evidence to point to Russia, President liar-nObama is bringing the full weight of his waning presidential power to bear against Russia. It is apparent that this is purely political. Even the way it has been reported has served those political purposes.
 
While the intelligence community has only claimed that Russia was behind the leaked e-mails and documents, the reporting of the liberal mainstream media has created an impression that has caused 50 percent of those polled who say they voted for liar-Clinton to believe that “Russia tampered with vote tallies in order to get Donald Trump elected president.” Going a step further than even other media outlets, the Washington Post got caught up in the Russian feeding frenzy and found itself in the position of having to retract a story about Russia hacking a Vermont utility.
 
Riding the mendacity of the pseudo-reporting of the left-wing media and the weak assumptions of the JAR, President liar-nObama’s issuing of sanctions and expulsion of Russian intelligence operatives appears to be designed to strangle Trump’s presidency while it is still in the cradle. By taking such audacious action with less than one month left before he turns the keys of the White House over to Trump, liar-nObama puts Trump in the position to either reverse that action or let it stand. Either way, Trump may appear to “confirm” the accusations of liar-Clinton and others in the DNC that he is Putin’s puppet.

I wanted to share the following recent article that revealed that George Soros secretly gave ‘$4 Million to destroy Israel’ and the ‘Media is hiding it.’ If True-What’s wrong with this picture?-You Decide:4063907555?profile=originalBOMBSHELL – George Soros Secretly Gave $4 MILLION to Destroy Israel, Media Hiding It!-Posted on Angry Patriot-On January 12, 2017:

George Soros’ leaked emails reveal multiple dastardly deeds, but the mainstream media are trying to hide the truth from us all.

Soros, a huge Hillary Clinton fan and longtime mentor, has been using his big wads of cash to influence and corrupt elections and governments in both the United States and Europe. According to his recently leaked emails, Soros gave $4 million to anti-Israel groups so they could engage in “challenging Israel’s racist and anti-democratic policies.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq2r0IFzgBc

DC Leaks published more than 2,500 emails going back to 2008 from Soros’ Open Society Foundations’ servers. According to a shocking report about hacked emails by the Observer, the liberal billionaire even referenced the Holocaust in the electronic missives.

Soros reportedly told reporter Steve Kroft in a televised interview that walking the streets of Budapest with his “faux godfather” to steal the property of his fellow Jewish people, under Hitler’s reign, was “the most exhilarating time” of his life. The same report maintained Soros has always had a problem with both his Jewish roots and the idea of creating a Jewish state.

One of Soros’ foundations, the New Israel Fund, reportedly teaches Israeli-Arabs and Jewish liberals how to use the law and the courts to thwart efforts to build a Jewish state. His son, Alexander Soros, appears to be preparing to follow in his daddy’s footsteps and is already rubbing elbows with Democrat elites.

The Jerusalem Post reports Soros’s Open Society gave nearly $10 million to groups advancing the rights of Arab Israelis since 2001. The groups or the projects that the money was slated to be used for reportedly had an emphasis on countering Israel’s “restrictive measures” against minorities.

“In recent years, the radicalization of public opinion and consecutive Israeli right wing governments have resulted in more restrictive measures against Palestinians within Israel,” a September 2015 review of Open Society’s Arab Regional Office’s work reportedly stated.

The Open Society document also declares the Jewish Nation State bill to be a restrictive measure which harms minorities in Israel. The bill has not yet garnered enough votes for passage.

Also, the organization’s Arab Regional Office noted enhanced advocacy by Palestinian citizens of Israel (PCI) in international forums as a plus, as it would help combat Israel’s “racist” policies. The notion of Israel being a democracy also appears to be mocked.

“In shifting to international advocacy, PCI’s are up against Israel and its image as a democratic state before the international community, therefore Palestinian civil society organizations in Israel feel the pressure of filling this gap by strengthening their relations with international actors and systems, such as the European Union and United Nations, to put their issue on the international agenda,” the George Soros Open Society memo also stated.

The leaked Soros emails reportedly showed plans to give $200,000 to the Center for American Politics to launch a nasty smear campaign against American conservatives in 2014. In 2015, his far-left Open Society gave $650,000 to “invest in technical assistance and support” for anti-police Black Lives Matter groups.

4063359777?profile=originalNote:  The following eye-opening article from the past revealed Obama and George Soros’s plan to create a 'Palestine State'-You Decide:

 

Obama, Soros create ‘Palestine’: ‘Invest in Arab ‘country’ that lacks recognition’–Posted on WND.com-By Bob Unruh-On February 11, 2011:

JERUSALEM – In partnership with a government fund initiated by Barack Obama, philanthropist and billionaire activist George Soros is investing in a private equity company that just launched in the Palestinian territories.

The company, Siraj Fund Management Company, says it was created “for the sole purpose of managing investment funds in Palestine.”

The new company’s website repeatedly refers to what it calls the “country” of “Palestine.” There is, however, no such country as Palestine. Siraj is apparently referring to territories controlled by the Palestinian Authority.

“Siraj has plans to launch future funds focused on the Palestinian market thereby contributing to the sustainable development of the country,” states the website.

This marks the latest involvement of Soros in Middle Eastern affairs.

WND reported last week Soros has been funding groups pushing for democracy in Egypt and is associated with an opposition leader there who has been fueling protests toppling the regime of President Hosni Mubarak, a key U.S. ally in the region.

WND also reported an international “crisis management” group led by Soros long has petitioned for the Egyptian government to normalize ties with the Muslim Brotherhood, the main opposition in Egypt.

This week, Siraj Fund Management Company, the first private equity fund in the Palestinian territories, officially launched in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

Soros’ Economic Development Fund invested in the new group alongside the U.S. government-owned Overseas Private Investment Corporation, or OPIC.

OPIC is an independent agency of the US government that mobilizes private sector investment in new and emerging markets overseas.

In 2009, OPIC created its Global Technology and Innovation Fund, which invested in Siraj, in response to an initiative by Obama to launch an investment group to support technological development in Muslim-majority countries.

The initiative followed Obama’s historic address to the Muslim world from Cairo, Egypt in June 2009.

The U.S. fund invested with Soros in the West Bank’s new Siraj Fund Management Company, which was created to manage investment funds in a “country” Siraj repeatedly refers to in its official literature and website as “Palestine.”

Palestine is a conventional name used to describe a geographic region between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. The name “Palestine” comes from the ancient word meaning “Philistines” or “Land of the Philistines.” Palestinian Arabs have no relation to ancient Philistines.

“Palestine” previously referred to a future Jewish state in the decades before its founding in 1948. Indeed, the Jerusalem Post, the country’s English newspaper, was previously called the Palestine Post. Jerusalem’s Jewish philharmonic was previously called the Palestine Orchestra.

The use of “Palestine” by the Siraj Fund Management Company seems to refer to a Palestinian state, which has not yet been established. After the 1967 Six Day War, Palestinians began referring to their desire for a future country possibly called “Palestine.”

Siraj Fund’s initial closing was $60 million and is expected to close at $80 million in the coming months. The Fund’s capital includes about half participation from foreign investors, the other half are Palestinians and Arabs.

Besides the U.S. government and Soros’ organization, other foreign investors in Saraj include the Pension Boards of the United Church of Christ and Crescent Investments of the United Arab Emirates.

Soros fingerprints on Mideast chaos

The International Crisis Group, or ICG, which includes Soros among its eight executive committee members, long has petitioned for the Egyptian government to normalize ties with the Muslim Brotherhood.

The ICG also released a report urging the Egyptian regime to allow the Brotherhood to establish an Islamist political party.

The ICG includes on its board Mohamed ElBaradei, one of the main opposition leaders in Egypt, as well as other personalities who champion dialogue with Hamas, a violent offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood.

In a June 2008 report entitled, “Egypt’s Muslim Brothers Confrontation or Integration,” Soros’ ICG urges the Egyptian regime to allow the group to participate in political life.

The report dismisses Egypt’s longstanding government crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood as “dangerously short-sighted.”

The ICG report called on Mubarak’s regime to “pave the way for the regularization of the Muslim Brothers’ participation in political life,” including by allowing for the “establishment of a political party with religious reference.”

The ICG specifically stressed allowing the Brotherhood to serve as an Islamist party several times in its 2008 report.

The ICG and its personalities also long have petitioned for the Muslim Brotherhood to be allowed to join the Egyptian government.

ElBaradei suspended his board membership in the ICG two weeks ago, after he returned to Egypt to lead the anti-Mubarak protests.

U.S. board members include Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was national security adviser to Jimmy Carter; Samuel Berger, who was Bill Clinton’s national security adviser; and retired U.S. ambassador Thomas Pickering, who made headlines in 2009 after meeting with Hamas leaders and calling for the U.S. to open ties to the Islamist group.

Another ICG member is Robert Malley, a former adviser to Obama during the 2008 presidential campaign. He resigned after it was exposed he had communicated with Hamas. WND reported Malley long had petitioned for dialogue with Hamas.

The ICG defines itself as an “independent, non-profit, multinational organization, with 100 staff members on five continents, working through field-based analysis and high-level advocacy to prevent and resolve deadly conflict.”

Meanwhile, Soros also has other ties to opposition groups in the Middle East.

His Open Society Institute’s Middle East and North Africa Initiative has provided numerous grants to a wide range of projects that promote so-called democratic issues across the region, including in Egypt, where the Muslim Brotherhood stands to gain from any future election.

Soros’ Open Society also funded the main opposition voice in Tunisia, Radio Kalima, which championed the riots there that led to the ouster of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.

In September, Soros’ group was looking to expand its operations in Egypt by hiring a new project manager for its Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights, which is run in partnership with the Open Society Justice Initiative. The group is seeking to develop a national network of legal empowerment actors for referral of public-interest law cases. Such organizations in the past have helped represent Muslim Brotherhood leaders seeking election or more authority in the country.

Soros himself last Friday made public statements in support of the protests in Egypt, which the Mubarak government has warned will result in the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in the country.

In a Washington Post editorial entitled, “Why Obama Has to Get Egypt Right,” Soros recognized that if free elections were held in Egypt, “the Brotherhood is bound to emerge as a major political force, though it is far from assured of a majority.”

He stated the U.S. has “much to gain by moving out in front and siding with the public demand for dignity and democracy” in Egypt.

He claimed the “Muslim Brotherhood’s cooperation with Mohamed ElBaradei … is a hopeful sign that it intends to play a constructive role in a democratic political system.”

Soros did not mention his ties to ElBaradei.

Soros did, however, single out Israel as “the main stumbling block” in paving the way toward transition in the Middle East.

“In reality, Israel has as much to gain from the spread of democracy in the Middle East as the United States has. But Israel is unlikely to recognize its own best interests because the change is too sudden and carries too many risks,” he wrote.

Muslim Brotherhood awakens terrorist wing

WND reported this week an Egyptian Islamist terrorist organization founded by the Muslim Brotherhood is re-establishing itself amid the political upheaval in Cairo

Both Egyptian and Israeli security officials said the group, Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya, is being reconstituted at the direction of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The officials affirmed Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya serves as the de facto “military” wing of the Brotherhood, which originally founded Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya.

Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya is suspected of involvement in the 1981 assassination of Egyptian president Anwar Sadat and it took credit for the 1995 attempt on the life of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. It has carried out scores of deadly terrorist attacks, some targeting foreign tourists.

The Muslim Brotherhood seeks to spread Islam around the world. Hamas and al-Qaida are violent Brotherhood offshoots.

While the Brotherhood claimed it abandoned violence to push for a peaceful takeover of Egypt, the group’s new spiritual leader, Muhammad Badi, recently publicly has called for violent jihad, including against the U.S.

On Sunday, an Egyptian security official was quoted in the news media stating Egyptian troops had arrested two armed Palestinians from Hamas who entered the country illegally from the Gaza Strip.

The security official told reporters the men had crossed from Gaza into Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula using smuggling tunnels and that they were arrested in a stolen car in the town of el-Arish, near the border, along with three Egyptian smugglers.

The official told the Associated Press the two Hamas men were caught with weapons, hand grenades, two RPGs and about $8,600 in cash.

A senior Egyptian security official speaking to WND on Monday said an investigation found the two Hamas men were aiding in the reorganization of Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya, which, he said, is attempting to reconstitute itself under the direction of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Egyptian security official said Hamas is helping Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya organize into divisions and to arm itself with weapons currently in the Sinai waiting to be smuggled into Gaza.

Both Israel and Egypt say Hamas has amassed a large quantity of weapons in the Sinai Peninsula, where the Islamist group has been attempting to smuggle the weaponry into Gaza.

Now, the Egyptian security official said, some of those weapons are going to arm the reconstituted Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya.

Notorious terrorist attacks

Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya was founded by the Muslim Brotherhood, and is classified as a terrorist group by the U.S., European Union and Egypt. Like the Muslim Brotherhood, the group is dedicated to the overthrow of Mubarak, seeking to replace his regime with an Islamic state.

The group has carried out numerous deadly attacks.

Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya may have been involved indirectly in Sadat’s assassination. The group’s leader has talked publicly about collaborating in planning the murder with the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, which was blamed for the killing.

In the late 1980s and 1990s, Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya carried out scores of terrorist acts in Egypt, including the murders and attempted murders of prominent Egyptian writers and intellectuals. The group also targeted tourists and foreigners.

In 1997, it carried out the notorious Luxor massacre in Luxor, Egypt, killing 58 foreign tourists and four Egyptians. Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya went on a shooting rampage in that attack, even reportedly mutilating the bodies of victims. A note praising Islam was found inside one disemboweled body.

One year earlier, in 1996, Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya carried out a shooting rampage at the Europa Hotel in Cairo, killing 18 Greek tourists.

In 1995, the group took responsibility for a car bomb attack on the Egyptian embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan, murdering 16 people.

After a massive Egyptian crackdown on the group in 1997 following the Luxur attack, Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya brokered a deal with the Egyptian government that is known as the Nonviolence Initiative, in which some leaders of the movement said they renounced violence.

Still, exiled leaders of Al-Gama’a al-Islamiyya maintained the group would not give up its violence.

Brotherhood declares war on U.S.

Multiple prominent U.S. commentators also have been claiming the Muslim Brotherhood is a moderate organization and denying any Islamist plot to seize power.

In November, the Brotherhood’s new supreme guide, Muhammad Badi, delivered a sermon entitled, “How Islam Confronts the Oppression and Tyranny.”

“Resistance is the only solution,” stated Badi. “The United States cannot impose an agreement upon the Palestinians, despite all the power at its disposal. [Today] it is withdrawing from Iraq, defeated and wounded, and is also on the verge of withdrawing from Afghanistan because it has been defeated by Islamist warriors.”

Badi went on to declare the U.S. is easy to defeat through violence, since it is “experiencing the beginning of its end and is heading toward its demise.”

4063359777?profile=originalNote:  The following articles from the past revealed Obama’s Foreign Policy Advisor and her core motives and influence that ultimately led to the president’s actions in 'Libya, along with her disturbing views regarding Israel', along with her connection to George Soros-You Decide:

 

The Rise of Samantha Power and the risks for the American- Israel relationship–Posted on American Thinker-By Ed Lasky-On March 20, 2011:

“As stories leak out regarding who was responsible for Barack Obama’s sudden pivot from passivity regarding Libya towards military engagement (albeit with England and France being in the lead) one name has emerged as playing a key role in persuading him to push the button: Samantha Power.

Her influence might cause qualms among supporters of the American-Israel relationship.

As has been covered by American Thinker and others (notably Noah Pollak in Commentary Contentions, among them), Power has been critical of the strength of this friendship and alliance. This concern should be now be heightened. Not only has she emerged as a key player in foreign policy, but the rationale that was used to justify American actions towards Libya can be used by other nations – if not the United States – to justify more active involvement in the Israel-Palestinian conflict.

Power was Barack Obama’s most influential foreign policy adviser during the campaign; they go back years and are basketball and Blackberrybuddies. Any influence she has would not be good for the American-Israel relationship-for reasons outlined here and here (where she said this regarding problems Barack Obama had during the campaign; “So much of it is about: Is he good for the Jews?”

Power may also have played a role in the granting of the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Mary Robinson, a person with a checkered record regarding actions towards Israel.

She now serves on the National Security Council. Foreign-policy making in this administration has been opaque at best. But one dynamic that has been now made clear is that Power has emerged as a key player.

From John Podhoretz’s column in the New York Post:

  • The Tuesday-evening meeting at the White House at which the president decided to move on Libya was “extremely contentious,” according to a report in Josh Rogin’s excellent blog, The Cable.
  • Power and a few others took the position that the United States couldn’t stay on the sidelines as Moammar Khadafy murdered his own people and snuffed out the people-power revolt in the Middle East in its infancy.
  • They were opposed by Power’s own boss, National Security Adviser Tom Donilon and by Defense Secretary Robert Gates.

But apparently, Samantha Power and Hillary Clinton persuaded Barack Obama to act. The rationale they used that led to military can come back to haunt friends of Israel’s.

Again, from Podhoretz:

  • According to Rogin, the governing doctrine that helped Obama to make his decision to act was not an appeal to the national interest, but rather to a recent concept promulgated at the United Nations called “responsibility to protect,” or R2P.
  • R2P is an effort to create a new international moral standard to prevent violence against civilians.
  • In her career as a genocide expert, Power was an indefatigable proponent of R2P, and now on the National Security Council has been “trying to figure out how the administration could implement R2P and what doing so would require of the White House going forward.” Hillary is her ally in this effort, it appears.

So it was not an appeal to our national interest that led President Obama to act but rather a new concept circulating in international policy circles – and one actively promoted by Power – that prompted his shift.

(By the way, the fact that Power played a key role in persuading Barack Obama to apply military force to protect civilians in Libya is akin to the same advice she counseled regarding Israel: Power also advocated that America send armed military forces, “a mammoth protection force” and an “external intervention”, to impose a settlement between Israel and the Palestinians).

But there are other problems inherent in the concept of R2P (how easy that must be to tap out on Blackberrys) and with the precedent that has now been established that allows international intervention.

It is not hard to envision that this R2P concept, swirling through the United Nations and in international foreign policy circles, can one day be applied against Israel when that nation is forced to respond from attacks coming from the West Bank, Gaza, and Lebanon. Terrorists hide behind civilians; Israeli actions to defend themselves often happen in densely populated areas where civilian deaths are almost inevitable – despite all the precautions Israel takes to prevent them.

Power’s promotion of the R2P concept is not a surprise. Barack Obama’s adoption of the same concept should be cause for concern. A Pandora’s Box may have just been opened. Power’s emergence as a key player, and her influence over the President, who already is inclined to outsource American foreign policy to the “international community,” should heighten this concern.

Just one more reason to try to keep track of the role and influence that Samantha Power has in the Oval Office. If Hillary Clinton decides to resign as Secretary of State (she has already declared she will not serve in a second term) there will be a reshuffling of positions of power (Susan Rice, Samantha Power, etc) and there is no telling who may end up moving closer to the center of power.

UPDATE:

The always astute Omri Ceren has more regarding the R2P concept over at Commentary Contentions. He notes that there is a bit of history regarding the concept’s application to the Israel-Palestinian conflict. There was a group created in 2009, the International Coalition For The Responsibility To Protect, that has spoken out against Israel, notably during Israel’s Operation Cast Lead in Gaza.

The Coalition released this statement:

The recent escalation of violence in Gaza has raised serious questions about the use of the Responsibility to Protect to urge international action to protect civilians in the conflict.

The Responsibility to Protect has been referred to, notably by Richard Falk, UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, but also others who claim that crimes committed in Gaza by Israeli forces have reached the threshold of R2P crimes.

Ceren continues:

  • This is part and parcel of the statements that the ICRtoP has been publishing since it was established in the immediate aftermath of Cast Lead. They published a petition absurdly insisting that “the rocket attacks on Israel by Hamas deplorable as they are, do not… amount to an armed attack entitling Israel to rely on self-defence.” They passed along Richard Falk’s “Israelis could be charged with war crimes” lawfare spin on the Goldstone Report. They reprinted other articles accusing Israelis of war crimes here and here and here and here and here. All of this was under the umbrella of “evaluating” whether R2P should be brought to bear against Israel’s self-defense campaigns.

The Responsibility To Protect, in other words, is an international norm that has been incubated with eyes on Israel at least since Cast Lead.

Now Samantha Power has seemingly slipped this concept into the mind and policies of Barack Obama. Once these international “concepts” are formed and promoted they often transform from mere intellectual ideas into the basis of international policy.

Israel should be worried.

Update II:

One more clue to Power being the promoter of the R2P concept within the Obama administration is her history. She opened a symposium put on the by the International Coalition for The Responsibility To Protect (ICR2P) as recently as November, 2010, with a keynote address. Furthermore, Sergio Vieira, was an international diplomat who pioneered the concept of the “responsibility to protect.” Vieira was later killed in a suicide bombing attack in Iraq. Power wrote an admiring biography (if not a hagiography) of Vieira a few years ago that noted his role in developing and promoting that concept.

Concepts become norms and, in the wrong hands, norms can become weapons.”

He has consistently characterized Abbas as a moderate and peace-maker and has consistently blamed Israel for the absence of peace. It further states that he has either done nothing in the face of Abbas’s efforts to gain international recognition of ‘Palestine’ without seeking an agreement with Israel or has actually abetted those efforts, along with consistently attacking ‘Prime Minister Netanyahu.’ If True-What’s wrong with this picture?-You Decide:

The Fght For Obamacare

Hmmm... "Veddy interestink. But stupid!"

In an attempt to stop the repeal of the personal and economic DISASTER that has been Obamacare, socialist 2016 LOSER, senator Bernie Sanders, b*tched and moaned about "what'll happen to the "28 MILLION" that still don't have health care".

???!!!

Wait a sec! O-care was supposed to be the savior (after his highness Obama himself, of course). It has been law for the last 6 or 7 years,
right? So, how can there still be "28 MILLION" not receiving medical treatment?!  Could this be the actual number of ILLEGAL ALIENS in the USA?!

Then, the one who had happily BENT OVER for Hillary and the DNC also said that the world is laughing at us, or something, because the USA is the only country not providing medical care for EVERYBODY.

> First of all, true Americans don't give a rat's @ss about the socialist / progressive world. If we did, Hillary Clinton would've been the one setting up her Cabinet as we speak - and it still wouldn't've been YOU, comrad Bernie!

> Second, ANYONE here can go to a local inner city clinic, or a hospital Emergency Ruum, and receive treatment - and they WON'T get turned away!

> Third: The Left's decades-long argument wanting a totally govt run medical care system...a la Fidel Castro...had already been established almost 87yrs ago. It's called The US Dept of Veterans Affairs (July 21, 1930). How's that working out?! 

Wait! Allow me: It's NOT!  Go away, Bernie. Retire. This guy had CHOSEN to live an impoverished life in his LONG GONE youth - w/ the very intention of taking his pro-communist stance. Then, he got into office...

His "struggle" today is paying the taxes on his TWO properties. He had THREE! The man that took a stand for "the workers" had never worked a day in his damned life!

"Poor" Bernie Sanders owns TWO properties today. Wow! Must be nice!  The same can be said about the Obamas, the Clintons, Harry Reid, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton - just to name a few.  One thing's for sure: POLITICS PAYS OFF!

 Sanders, Not Streep, Actually Gets It

Last night, one of the most privileged classes of American society gathered to celebrate its own greatness by giving its members awards at Hollywood's annual Golden Globes. As is often the case with Hollywood elites, the leftist worldview reigns supreme, and there was a palpable anti-Trump vibe throughout the event. That culminated with Meryl Streep's diatribe in which she declared Hollywood to be the true victim of Donald Trump's election. In the classic manner of an elitist bully, Streep spoke from her leftist ivory tower with thinly veiled scorn against Trump without actually saying his name. Obviously, Streep sees that there is only one acceptable political perspective and no other views will be tolerated.
          Clearly, much of America didn't listen to preachy celebrities in deciding how to vote, and like all Democrats, much of Hollywood has yet to come to grips with the fact that they are not as relevant as they may have believed.
          In one of the most disingenuous portions of her speech, Streep lectured, "Disrespect invites disrespect. Violence incites violence. And when the powerful use their position to bully others, we all lose." So, who truly is the bully here, Ms. Streep? Ironically, if it is respect that she seeks, then disrespecting the views and opinions of others less privileged than herself seems a rather dubious manner by which to gain it.
          Even septuagenarian socialist Bernie Sanders sees the problem, stating on Friday that the Democrats lost because they're out of touch with much of America. "I happen to believe that the Democratic Party has been not doing a good job in terms of communicating with people in cities, in towns and in rural America — all over this country," he said. "Look, you can't simply go around to wealthy people's homes raising money and expect to win elections. You've got to go out and mix it up and be with ordinary people."
          It's as if the remark was pointed not just at Streep but Barack liar-nObama, who celebrated the end of "eight great years" this past weekend with — what else — a White House party full of Hollywood celebrities.
          Leftist Hollywood elites along with Democrats who continue to bemoan the election results need to come to grips with the fact that Americans rejected what they were selling. Peddling worthless junk in a pretty box doesn't make it any less garbage.

 National Concealed Carry Reciprocity Coming Soon? 
8eGlD183wjsdm8aUwClhdJx2dn4920ACdToe9LmCQKUeulLkl7_OslqGjuq39D665Hx7kghYgNs9I-6x-Hz4sWcFSiGC_AmZQfwqCQ67IGfLy9Rj6RygFCzow-uwZQ=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
In 1833, Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story wrote, "The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them." Those words are every bit as true today.
          That's why it's important that Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) has now introduced the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, which requires states to recognize each other's concealed carry firearm permits, though citizens must abide by the laws of whatever state they're visiting. "Our Second Amendment right doesn't disappear when we cross state lines, and this legislation guarantees that," Hudson said in a statement. "The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 is a common sense solution to a problem too many Americans face. It will provide law-abiding citizens the right to conceal carry and travel freely between states without worrying about conflicting state codes or onerous civil suits."
          Conservatives are normally hesitant to create federal law that overrides state law. But in this case, it's gun grabbers who are hiding behind the principle of federalism. We don't believe states like Illinois, for example, are abiding by the Second Amendment, and many constitutionalists believe the Fourteenth Amendment "incorporates" all the Bill of Rights against the states. In other words, Illinois can't infringe on the Second Amendment rights of its citizens or of the residents of other states whose concealed carry permits are void upon crossing its border. Several deep blue states — California, New York and Oregon among them — do not recognize any other state's permit.
          Consider a driver's license, on the other hand. Any state's driver's license allows its holder to drive in any other state, subject to the laws of the state in which he or she is driving. Concealed carry reciprocity already works in a similar manner for states that allow it. It's time a right actually enumerated in the Constitution worked the same way.  ~The Patriot Post

{rickwells.us} ~ Lou Dobbs and Judge Andrew Napolitano discuss the dumping of documents by the FBI during the Giants Vs Packers NFL game, which indicate the liar-Hillary Clinton was emailing classified documents to someone outside the government, on a regular basis... Lou Dobbs asks if it is enough evidence and sorts through many of the worms in this newly opened can with Judge Napolitano. Dobbs begins by pointing out that we have no idea who at the FBI was in possession of the documents or their reason for dumping them to the public or their motivations for the timing. He diplomatically says of the documents, “They suggest clearly that there are a lot of misunderstandings about what was held by Mrs. liar-Clinton, what was communicated by her and to her, of a highly sensitive nature.” Judge Napolitano says, “The highly sensitive nature was 301 pages of emails, which Mrs. liar-Clinton sent on a regular basis to a non-government person. We have reason to believe that that was Sid Blumenthal, with whom she emailed on a daily and regular basis, several times a day. What we now know, what Donald Trump feared, and argued during the campaign, and what rogue FBI agents who profoundly disagreed with Director Comey’s decision to recommend against indictment was true. That the information Mrs. liar-Clinton regularly sent to her emailer was hacked by foreign intelligence agencies of countries unfriendly to us and friendly to us.”...This should be the big issue not the Russians hack.  http://rickwells.us/dobbs-new-fbi-release-clinton-sent-classified-emails-civilian-intercepted-by-russia-china/

New Intelligence Report Fails to Prove Russia Behind DNC/lar-Clinton Campaign Leaks
by C. Mitchell Shaw
{thenewamerican.com} ~ On Friday, the intelligence community followed up on a previous report by issuing “a declassified version of a highly classified assessment that has been provided to the President and to recipients approved by the President.”... The new report — entitled “Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections” — makes the same bold claims as and offers no more proof than the previous Joint Analysis Report (JAR) by DHS and the FBI released in late December. The new report is a product of the CIA, FBI, and NSA, and runs 25 pages in all. Of those 25 pages, the first 10 are an introduction containing “background” in the form of various disclaimers and a Cliff’s Notes version of the assessment. Under the heading “Key Judgments,” the introduction states:...  http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/item/25104-new-intelligence-report-falis-to-prove-russia-behind-dnc-clinton-campaign-leaks?utm_source=iContactPro&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=TNA+Top+Daily+Headlines

liar-nObama Is Using the Russians as an
Excuse to Expand Federal Power over Elections   
by John Fund
PVfFXkzf0Nzpmd9Z1piTRAM0Bc4TTJDR62boMBW-I8dlhmVN1lVnu-3ufnFUTdhTeBNyZq4lizZyacsrwlB4eXIDdXiSYnrGeLtHgJvttGfwvOExP2J90HT16ZKCcLwy8xMZb93TxgI=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
{nationalreview.com} ~ A decentralized election system makes large-scale hacking nearly impossible. We should keep it that way.
                                                                                          The liar-nObama Administration is leaving office much like the way it came in — by exploiting perceived crises. “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste,” Rahm Emanuel, liar-nObama’s just-named chief of staff, told a Wall Street Journal conference of top CEOs in November 2008 while his boss was still president-elect. Since then a slew of constitutionally dubious executive orders, presidential emergencies, and rushed legislation have characterized the liar-nObama presidency. Now he is leaving office by issuing a blizzard of “midnight regulations” and edicts.
 
One of the most troublesome came last Friday and gave the federal government the power to begin centralizing our election systems. The Constitution explicitly gives states the power to set the “times, manner and places of holding elections.”
 
But Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson used the excuse of Friday’s release of a report on Russian hacking of the Democratic National Committee to declare that state and local voting systems will be designated as “pieces of critical infrastructure” so that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) can protect them from hackers.
 
His move — coming just 15 days before President liar-nObama leaves office — led many experts to question both its wisdom and its constitutionality. “While the federal government has the general power to protect the nation’s cyber infrastructure, it cannot intrude into areas of state sovereignty without clear constitutional mandate,” John Yoo, a law professor at UC Berkeley, told CNSNews.com.
 
“There is no federal power to control or secure elections. Each state administers its own elections, restricted only by constitutional protections for voting rights,” agreed Illya Shapiro, senior fellow in constitutional studies at the Cato Institute. “It may make sense for states to request federal support here, but it would set a dangerous precedent for a federal agency to unilaterally take over state electoral processes.”
 
Secretary Johnson’s decision sparked outrage from many of those who are most knowledgeable about our election system — the 50 secretaries of state who, along with local officials, run the election process. Even Johnson admitted that “many of them are opposed to this designation.” And how.
 
Secretary of State Brian Kemp of Georgia, told me in an interview that Johnson’s action “uses security as an excuse to subvert the Constitution and establish the basis for federal encroachment into election systems.” Vermont Secretary of State Jim Candos, a Democrat, told Politico that such a move is “kind of the nose under the tent,” adding:
What I think a lot of folks get concerned about is when the federal government says, “Well, look, we’re not really interested in doing that, but we just want to give you this,” and then all of a sudden this leads to something else.
The reason that state and local officials strongly oppose the liar-nObama-Johnson power grab is that they know the decentralized U.S. election system makes large-scale hacking almost impossible. Secretary Johnson even conceded in a recent telephone conference call with state officials that there is no credible threat of a successful cyberattack on the voting and ballot-counting process, despite revelations about recent attacks on the voter-registration systems in Arizona and Illinois.
 
Those systems — maintained by states and county governments — are separate and distinct from the voting machines used on Election Day in nearly 200,000 precincts around the country. The same is true for the machines that count the ballots.
 
The hacks in Arizona and Illinois, in which voter-registration data were copied but not altered, illustrate the danger of online voter registration, but they are not an indication of the vulnerability of our ballot counting.
 
Rather than pursue more authority over election systems, the liar-nObama administration should have been more worried that its director of the federal Office of Personnel Management (OPM) had to resign last July after hackers stole the personal data of 21.5 million current and former federal employees. The stolen information included employees’ addresses, Social Security numbers, financial and military records, and security clearances from OPM’s data bases. No one else has been disciplined for that breach, even though OPM had for months ignored clear warnings about the agency’s vulnerabilities.
 
So color me darkly suspicious that the liar-nObama administration, in its very last days in office, has suddenly decided to shift into action on the alleged dangers of election hacking. It looks all too much like an excuse to seize more power from state authorities, and it resembles the administration’s other moves on election law: filing lawsuits against popular voter-ID laws, blocking states from requiring a proof of citizenship when people register to vote, and refusing for eight years to enforce federal laws that require states to clean up their voter rolls if they accept federal money for their operations.

Missing from the Intelligence Report:

{familysecuritymatters.org} ~ There is a word missing from the non-classified report issued Friday, in which three intelligence agencies assess "Russia's Influence Campaign Targeting the 2016 US Presidential Election."... The FBI, CIA, and NSA elide any mention of . . . "Podesta." Seems like a pretty significant omission - not just because of how the 2016 campaign played out but also in light of the intelligence community's recent history of politicizing its analyses. The report is replete with references to Russian "cyber espionage," "covert intelligence," "false-flag," "propaganda," and "influence" operations by which Vladimir Putin is alleged to have tried to put his thumb on the electoral scale. Very sinister stuff, to be sure. But when the public hears these terms, it thinks of spies, misdirection, disinformation campaigns - i.e., schemes intended to deceive the target audience. People don't instantly think, "Oh, you mean an effort to publicize true but embarrassing information"; they don't read "covert operation" and say to themselves, "That must mean they subjected only one side of a political contest to a high level of scrutiny." That's the kind of behavior people associate with the American media, not the Kremlin...

Yahya Ayyash, a Hamas mass murderer
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ Palestinian youths are being urged to follow in the footsteps of Yahya Ayyash, a Hamas mass murderer who masterminded a wave of suicide bombings that killed and wounded hundreds of Israelis... Ayyash's expertise in manufacturing explosive devices earned him the nickname "The Engineer" and turned him into a hero in the eyes of many Palestinians. The bomb-maker was killed by Israeli security forces on January 5, 1996, thereby ending one of the bloodiest chapters of Palestinian terrorism against Israel. Two decades later, this arch-terrorist is still being revered as a hero and martyr. His murderous legacy and personality are being glorified not only by his Hamas supporters, but also by the "moderate" Western-funded Palestinian Authority (PA), headed by Mahmoud Abbas. A few years ago, the PA decided to honor Ayyash by naming a street in Ramallah after him. The street sign was posted in Ramallah, the headquarters of the PA where Abbas lives and works, and reads:...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9743/palestinians-glorifying-murderers

Days after the email was sent, someone on the list was sent as the mediator by the EU, as per Investor’s Business Daily. This past weekend, an organization called DC Leaks put up 2,500 documents from Soros’s Open Society Foundation’s servers, revealing more corruption and connections to liar-Clinton and others. The emails are from as far back as 2008. However, the mainstream media are refusing to say anything about this leak, no doubt because Soros funds them or they fear retaliation.

{townhall.com} ~ Forget “fake news,” America’s epidemic is fake healthcare where cancer patients can’t obtain immunotherapy while taxpayers are forced to bankroll $8,000 drugs to treat minor conditions.

Welcome to life as a sick person seeking treatment—or a healthy person seeking catastrophic health insurance—in House Democratic leader Nancy Pulosi’s America (a.k.a. Chocolate Factory).  

Republicans have one chance to repeal fake healthcare (otherwise known as the Affordable Care Act or liar-nObamacare). But, even as you read this column, Pulosi is hustling to market a new anti-healthcare reform campaign: “Make America Sick Again.”

Cry me a river. Democrats corrupted the American healthcare system even further; baited Millennials to bankroll their broken plan; and now they’re launching a campaign to blame Republicans for their mess—a mess for which not a single Republican voted.

If Republicans cower in fear as they are prone to do, Pulosi will corral the Democrats into destroying our healthcare system beyond repair. Here’s the urgent call-to-action that we need to send our congressional Republicans:

Nancy Pulosi’s Chocolate Factory

“I am addicted to chocolate,” Pulosi told the New York Times in 2006 when asked if she had “issues.” “Ice cream for breakfast,” she added, was part of her diet. Eight years later, in 2014, the Times reported: “Ms. Pulosi ate whole pints of chocolate ice cream, including for breakfast.” Actually, Pulosi has been eating chocolate and chocolate ice cream almost “constantly” since the age of five—by her own admission.

Eating pints of chocolate ice cream for breakfast for a quarter century takes its toll. Whatever the reason, Pulosi appears to be a bit ill. She almost looks like a weary, 76-year-old grandmother who should have retired from politics a decade ago. Oh. Wait…

Why should Pulosi tell young people in my Millennial generation—or even our parents, the Baby Boomers—how to be healthy when she never advanced beyond the age of five in terms of health-consciousness?

When we had a chance to “find out what is in it,” we learned Pulosi’s pet piece of legislation is really a Pandora’s box. Young people already facing high unemployment now face health insurance sticker shock—as premiums rise 50% on average and often closer to 179%. It’s no surprise that even Politico recently warned that liar-nObamacare has a “Millennial problem.”

The GOP has one solid chance to stop this woman—who is the picture of nutritional dysfunction—from telling you and me how to be “healthy.”

Buy-and-Raise: $200 Drugs for $8,000

Wall Street has a name for a dirty business practice that escalated under the liar-nObama administration wherein drug companies charge the American taxpayers fake, or inflated, prices for decades-old drugs that should retail, at most, for $200. The term is “buy-and-raise.”

Drug companies got everything they wanted in liar-nObamacare thanks to slick negotiation from big Pharma lobbyist Billy Tauzin. liar-nObama, congressional Democrats and Tauzin collaborated to ram the unconstitutional bill through congress in 2010 without a single Republican vote. (I encourage you to learn the full story of "Pimp Daddy Tauzin" and liar-nObamacare.)

Unfortunately, drug companies gained at the price of patients. 300 doctors—whom I personally interviewed—say liar-nObamacare will raise costs and lower the quality of healthcare for young Americans.

Buy-and-raise, the Los Angeles Times reported last month, is a practice that drug companies are utilizing to inflate prices by 1,000%.

Here’s how it works: drug companies offer patients “co-pay coupons” for common drugs like a simple skin cream called, Alcortin A and a basic pain reliever, Vimovo. The drugs retailed for $189 and $115 respectively less than two years ago. Today, they retail for $7,968 and $2,061 respectively. Patients and doctors rarely see the true sticker price as the drugs are covered by many insurance plans and drug companies give patients co-pay coupons that allow them to pay a negligible amount while, as the Los Angeles Times reports: “leaving America’s health system to pick up the rest of the price.”

Taxpayers like you are picking up a hefty price indeed. Researchers from UCLA, Harvard and Northwestern recently found that drug companies have been reimbursed “as much as $2.7 billion” more “over five years” than “if the coupons were not used,” reports the Los Angeles Times.

Profits from buy-and-raise tactics are padding the salaries of drug executives more often than saving patient lives. Horizon CEO Timothy Walbert’s compensation package increased by a factor of ten from 2014 to 2015 to $93.4 million. Drugs like Alcortin A and Vimovo cost drug companies little to make as they are based on ingredients discovered decades ago, but patients will not question five-figure costs that they never see.

Almost 14 million Americans have cancer. Many patients only find remission if they are lucky enough to participate in one of the small and selective immunotherapy trials taking place throughout the country. Consider that it typically costs $200,000 per person per year for an immunotherapy trial. Imagine how many more cancer patients we could help if we weren’t paying over $7,000 extra for a common rash cream.

Here’s what the GOP must do—right now.

Insurers Need Competition from Employers

If Republicans follow the lead of House Speaker Paul Ryan who passed a $1.15 trillion spending bill—outspending even Pulosi when she ran the House as a Democrat—they’ll try to “fix” liar-nObamacare by dumping more taxpayer dollars at the problem.

Republicans lose elections when they cower in the corner and spend instead of shutting down defunct aspects of the government. So if Republicans do what some reports suggest—and issue a token repeal of liar-nObamacare and then wait up to two years to implement a replacement for fear of angering those who are on liar-nObamacare—history tells us that voters will not be kind to Republicans in the 2018 midterms.

There are many sustainable ways to offer affordable and high-quality healthcare coverage to some 30 million Americans who didn’t have healthcare coverage before they joined the liar-nObamacare exchanges. One solution is to create competition for insurance companies and force them to raise their game. Employers could “compete” with insurance companies by offering health savings accounts (HSAs) to their employees instead of traditional health insurance.

HSAs would particularly benefit the portion of the population that contains a high number of uninsured individuals: Millennials. Why? Because an employee owns their own HSA, accrues funds toward their future healthcare costs while they are still healthy—and keeps their contributions if they switch employers (as Millennials often do).

“The HSA account is funded by pre-tax payroll deduction. Using 2016 contribution limits, this would amount to $128.85 deducted every 2 weeks ($3,350 per year) for an individual or $259.62 deducted every 2 weeks ($6,750 per year) for family coverage. …There are no insurance premiums to be paid, outrageous deductibles to be met, or endless co-pays at the doctor’s office. … This is an especially strong benefit for young healthy Millennials,” explains SustainableHealthcareReform.
org.

Pulosi just ordered an “ethics probe” into president-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Health and Human Services Department—orthopedic surgeon Rep. Tom Price (R-GA). Unlike Paul Ryan, Price scares Pulosi because he has a clear plan to repeal and replace liar-nObamacare that involves expanding HSAs, increasing tax credits and slashing “goodies” like the ability for young people to remain on their parents’ plan until they well into adulthood (26-years-old).

When you eat your dessert first, like Pulosi, you simply don’t have enough energy for the “meat and potatoes” work that Price proposes. Work that would actually reform healthcare.

Share this article with your loved ones—and tell one and all to tweet, Facebook and call their elected representatives with this message: we’re done with fake healthcare; we’re done with subsidizing Nancy Pulosi’s chocolate factory; we expect real reform.

In an effort to get younger people to sign up for health insurance, in December 2013 Organizing for Action tweeted out the now-infamous photo of a young hipster with the caption, "Wear pajamas. Drink hot chocolate. Talk about getting health insurance." Whether it was a present-day indication or a sign of things to come, college-age men are now told about "toxic masculinity" and warned that "the 'three most destructive' words a boy can hear growing up are 'be a man.'" In terms of biology, boys have little choice but to become men, but their behavior as such is influenced by their culture and role models.
          During the 2016 presidential campaign, we were told that it was time for the first female president to break the "glass ceiling" men had created. liar-Hillary Clinton was even set up with a heel suitable for a WWE event: an opponent in Donald Trump who made headlines from decade-old remarks about his prowess in grabbing women he desired as sexual objects — remarks that were kept on ice by the Leftmedia until they could be released to devastating effect as an October surprise.
          Intentionally or not, Trump has fit himself into one of the primary stereotypes Hollywood has created for male characters — that of the boorish, bigoted cad with little redeeming social value. He's an even less sympathetic version of Archie Bunker. When leftist Norman Lear created spinoff shows from the popular "All in the Family," he also created similar male characters like Walter Findlay (husband of "Maude") and George Jefferson. "Seinfeld" had a different take on this with Frank Costanza, George's dad.
          From that style of behavior, we go to another Hollywood favorite: the incompetent dad who screws everything up, leaving the female lead to solve the problems. (Think Ray Barone of "Everybody Loves Raymond," Homer Simpson or "Family Guy" Peter Griffin.) Another variation of this: the complete loser. (Think Al Bundy of the '80s sitcom "Married With Children.")
          A second media creation about how to "be a man" comes from the hardcore rappers who endlessly work out rhymes that call women some equivalent of the b-word or another that rhymes with "so." (Some raunchy female artists do this, too, and then richly complain about objectification of women.) Over the years that mentality has led to millions of children born to unwed mothers who have no father in their life — meanwhile, the "baby daddy" may have several other children by multiple women. It's the virility of being "macho" but without the virtues of decency, maturity or responsibility.
          With these portrayals of fatherhood, it's obvious our mass media celebrates an era of "girl power" that leaves younger boys as afterthoughts bereft of good role models. They can't even pretend to be a good male Disney character anymore — the media giant hardly crafts such male role models any more.
          To be an acceptable man in our culture is to have those elements as a beta male, allowing yourself to get in touch with your feelings. Being a strong male — not necessarily the John Wayne caricature, but simply a man with the mental and physical strength to be a provider, husband, family leader and thoughtful Patriot — is now frowned upon, to the lament of those who recall a time when men weren't so "vulnerable."
          Good male role models are a requirement, though, for a boy to have the best chance at leading a happy, fulfilling life. Yes, boys can have a strong single mother and succeed — and millions have done so despite the odds being against them. But in our worldly base of knowledge that shakes its fist at tradition and insists that an enlightened few know better, we've devolved to living like the pajama boy.
          Changing that requires much more than a new president. It requires looking past those emasculating "experts" who would tell our boys how to be men and finding good role models and mentors who do it the right way every day. Fortunately, such role models are still out there — if we would only look for them.

{blabber.buzz/politics} ~ The incident, which occurred Sunday and was first reported by Reuters, comes as U.S. President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office on Jan. 20... In September, Trump vowed that any Iranian vessels that harass the U.S. Navy in the Gulf would be “shot out of the water.” The officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said the USS Mahan established radio communication with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps boats but they did not respond to requests to slow down and continued asking the Mahan questions. The Navy destroyer fired warning flares and a U.S. Navy helicopter also dropped a smoke float before the warning shots were fired...  http://blabber.buzz/politics/76338-american-warships-fire-warning-shots-at-iranian-vessels

They've all gone crazy...protesting at night crying all of the way and falling all over themselves to end Trump's Inaugural Day!" How arrogant of Donald J. Trump to have run against this woman...and won! Why...why...it's misogynistic for him to have not let her win and means that he's a racist anti-Semite woman hater who beats his wife and small animals!!! Doesn't make sense...right? Then again, when did leftists ever make sense? This is, however, what they're saying and backing up with all manner of violence against those supposed white voters for Trump. Their latest egregious act was kidnapping, attacking and terrorizing a mentally challenged teen for 2 days. These people are our enemies...not soon-to-be President Donald J.

Then it would be time to “move forward not only to protect what we’ve accomplished, but also to see this as an opportunity”... liar-nObama is not a conventional politician. He’s an organizer and a campaigner at the vanguard of a radical movement that seeks to control traditional institutions, but doesn’t feel bound by them. Unlike Bill liar-Clinton, his plans don’t begin and end with the White House. As an organizer, liar-nObama is equipped to build bases of power outside traditional institutions. And that is exactly what he is doing. While the leftist rioters in the streets are garnering the most attention, the real threat comes from the network of staffers dubbed liar-nObama Anonymous which are beginning to organize and coordinate. OFA is liar-nObama’s equivalent of the liar-Clinton Foundation. The liar-Clintons built liar-Clintonworld around staffers, but its goal was harvesting money. liar-nObama Inc. is being built around organizing and activism...  http://www.frontpagemag.com/point/265412/obama-quietly-hiring-new-ofa-staff-fight-trump-daniel-greenfield

{frontpagemag.com} ~ Democrats are throwing accusations involving "Russia" and "Treason" often enough these days. But they don't have much to say when liar-nObama perpetrates actual treason... Global powers, including the United States, have reached an agreement to provide Iran with nearly 130 tons of uranium—which experts believe would be enough to make 10 nuclear bombs. Two diplomats involved with the deal told the Associated Press that the so-called P5+1 powers agreed to the transfer of Russian natural uranium in exchange for 44 tons of “heavy water” nuclear runoff, which Iran has already sent to Russia after it created more than was allowed under last year’s nuclear deal. That shipment to Russia involved the second time that Iran exceeded its heavy water limit; it shipped excess heavy water to Oman last year...This is TREASON.

The warnings came even as liar-Clinton — by then heavily favored to win the Democratic presidential nomination — casually dismissed any problems with the private email system in her New York mansion. Dramatic behind-the-scenes alarms were triggered by the liar-Clinton’s emails, a fact which is vividly depicted throughout the newly released documents...So she knew it all along and also the FBI.

When It’s Black on White Crime
the Left Goes Color Blind
by Pastor Michael Brown

{townhall.com} ~ Why is it that when whites engage in violent acts against blacks, many on the left assume that those criminal acts must be hate-based, but when the tables are turned and the violence is black on white, many on the left no longer see color, looking for any explanation other than racial hate? Why the double standard?

According to CNN’s Don Lemon, the horrific kidnapping and torture of a mentally disabled white man by a group of four blacks – who had the audacity and stupidity to air it on Facebook live –wasn’t really evil.

Responding to Matt Lewis, who had commented on the extreme “evil” nature of the crime, Lemon replied, “I don’t think it’s evil. I don’t think it’s evil. I think these are young people, and I think they have bad home training.”

Not evil? Seriously? Just young people with bad home training?

Lemon’s comment drew immediate scorn, including tweets like this: “Hey @donlemon was Dylan Roof evil? Or just the victim of bad home training?” Dylan Roof was the young white man who slaughtered 9 black parishioners during a church service in South Carolina.

Does anyone for a moment think that Lemon, who himself is black, would have reacted the same way had this been a horrific, white on black crime?

To be clear, I’m glad that white on black violence has been exposed in recent years thanks to cell phone cameras, and to the extent that whites specifically targeted blacks – as in the case of Dylan Roof – our outrage should be even more acute.

But why shouldn’t we be just as concerned with targeted black on white violence, as in the many examples of the infamous “knockout games”?

I understand that, in the eyes of many blacks, to reply immediately to the phrase “black lives matter” with the phrase “all lives matter” is to minimize the point they were making. But at what point can we say, “White lives matter too”? Why is that forbidden?

A recent anti-white, MTV video even mocked the idea that “blue lives matter,” since people aren’t blue. Tell that to the widows and orphans of the cops who were killed in cold blood while serving our country this year.

Being on talk radio, I’ve heard from many God-fearing, church-going, authority-honoring black callers who shared with me their stories of being racially profiled, of experiencing discrimination, of even fearing for their lives at times simply because they were black, and I don’t doubt their stories for a moment.

While flying home recently, I was upgraded to first class and sat next to a black gentleman who could have passed for a former or even current football player. As we talked, he told me he was the president of a university, holding a J.D. and a Ph.D. When we discussed the issue of discrimination, he shared with me the obstacles he had to overcome and how, to this day, when he sits in first class, people look at him like he’s sitting in the wrong place or else assume he must be an athlete. After all, why else would be a large black man be flying in first class?

So, to repeat, my intent here is not to minimize anti-black sentiment in America; my intent is to expose the hypocritical double standards, and this recent, ugly incident, has brought all this to the surface.

Remember that the torturers were yelling “f—k white people” and “f—k Trump” as they abused this young man, yet Democratic strategist Symone Sanders also black, appearing on the same discussion panel with Don Lemon, wasn’t sure it was a hate crime.

She said, “If we start going around and anytime someone says or does something egregious or bad and sickening in sense. In connection with the president-elect Donald Trump or even President liar-nObama for that matter because of their political leanings, that’s slippery territory. That is not a hate crime.”

I actually believe she has a point here, albeit a minor one, but again, it’s the double-standard and the hypocrisy that concern me, since this is the very thing we’ve been subjected to for the last 8 years, namely, assuming that white criticism of President liar-nObama must be race-based. Yet when it’s black on white hatred in conjunction with black-on-Trump hatred, we have to tread carefully lest we head into “slippery territory.”

To ask the obvious question, what would have Sanders have said if, two weeks before liar-nObama’s first inauguration, four young white people kidnapped and tortured a mentally disabled black person, shouting, “f—k black people” and “f—k liar-nObama”?

Wouldn’t hatred of liar-nObama equal hatred of blacks in the eyes of Sanders, and wouldn’t she quickly brand this a glaring example of a dangerous hate crime that could be a portent of worse things to come? For the record, within 24 hours of her statement quoted here, when pressed by Anderson Cooper, Sanders did acknowledge the kidnapping and torture as a hate crime, following the lead of the prosecutors.

For a glaring example of hypocrisy, right from the White House, what about the statement of Press Secretary Josh Earnest, when pressed by the media about whether this was a hate crime?

He would not answer directly, since he claimed he had not yet discussed it with the president and was waiting for official word from law enforcement, stressing how important it was for them to do come to their conclusions first. But this is the very thing that the liar-nObama administration has not done when controversial, white on black cases came to national attention.

To give one case in point, think back to the 2009 arrest of Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates, a black man, by police Sgt. James Crowley, a white man.

When asked about the incident at a news conference that week, President liar-nObama said, “I don't know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played.”

“But,” he added, “I think it's fair to say, No. 1, any of us would be pretty angry; No. 2, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home; and, No. 3 ... that there's a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately.”

Indeed, he stated, that the arrest shows “how race remains a factor in this society” – and to repeat, he said this without knowing the facts.

The charges against Gates were, in fact, dropped (he was trying to “break in” to his own house when a neighbor called to report the suspicious activity), but Sgt. Crowley had not acted stupidly, nor did the arrest have anything to do with race, which is one reason why President liar-nObama subsequently invited Gates and Crowley to have a beer with him and Vice President loose lips-Biden at the White House.

Yet when it comes to a heinous, black on white hate crime today, the White House doesn’t want to speak prematurely, wanting to let local law enforcement do its work.

After Earnest’s statement, President liar-nObama did refer to the kidnapping and torture as a “despicable” hate crime, and other black voices, like Montel Williams, denounced the crime in the strongest terms.

But the reaction of others, like Lemon and Sanders and Earnest, points to a larger issue, and it is one we can’t ignore.

As for Lemon’s contention that the kids were raised poorly, that may be true – although the grandmother who raised one of the accused kidnappers would strongly differ with that assessment – but plenty of people who commit evil acts were not raised well, and we don’t minimize their deeds because of their unfortunate upbringing. And, again, I doubt that Lemon would have made such an excuse had the racial tables been turned.

Of course, the whole category of “hate crimes” carries its own set of controversies, but that’s not the focus here. The focus is to expose left-wing, anti-white hypocrisy, and if we really care about justice, that means justice for all.

As for the black young people who committed this crime, while they deserve justice, I pray for their redemption as well, along with the physical and emotional recovery of the white young person who was abused.

 Hacking Trump

If anything related to email impacted the 2016 election, it was liar-Hillary Clinton's completely insecure private email server. But that's the 800lb. — make that 8,000lb. — gorilla in the room Democrats and the Leftmedia would rather ignore as they scramble to delegitimize Donald Trump with stories of Russian hacking and influence in the election.
          James Clapper, Barack liar-nObama's outgoing Director of National Intelligence, testified before a Senate committee Thursday about alleged Russian hacking. "I don't think that we have ever encountered a more aggressive or direct campaign to interfere in our election process," Clapper said. And it went all the way to the Kremlin, he asserted: "We assess that only Russia's senior-most officials could have authorized the recent election-focused data thefts and disclosures, based on the scope and sensitivity of the targets."
          According to CBS, "Clapper reiterated the liar-nObama administration's public accusation that Moscow orchestrated the computer attacks that hit the Democratic Party and liar-Hillary Clinton campaign operatives, leading to a WikiLeaks dump of embarrassing internal emails that ousted top Democratic National Committee leaders and destabilized liar-Clinton's campaign in the final months."
          So, if CBS has accurately reported the claim, we can conclude that sharing with voters what leading Democrat operatives like liar-Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta actually said behind closed doors hurt liar-Hillary Clinton's campaign. That's an interesting excuse...
          But even then, it's really just a Leftmedia framing of what Clapper and other intelligence officials actually said. Clapper told Congress that suspected Russian hacking "did not change any vote tallies or anything of that sort," adding that "there's no way for us to gauge" whether the hacking affected voters' choices.
          That won't stop the narrative that the Russians wanted to help Donald Trump win. Never mind that the hacks occurred before he became the GOP nominee.
          Naturally, Trump is intensely skeptical of any accusation or insinuation that his election was unfair or unduly influenced, and as is his custom, he's taken to Twitter to heckle the intelligence community for it.
          But Republicans and conservatives in general should also be extremely cautious in following Trump's lead when discussing Vladimir Putin and Julian Assange of WikiLeaks. One is the cold-blooded ruler of our geopolitical rival — a man whose journalistic critics and political opponents often end up dead. The other is what House Speaker Paul Ryan called a "sycophant for Russia" — a subversive leaker of classified information who doesn't think twice about putting lives at risk. Neither is a friend of the United States or Liberty, and neither has our nation's interests at heart. Whatever they've done has been for their own ends. And those ends might just include helping Democrats by providing a big, fat target to focus American political attention for the next few months and to delegitimize the incoming U.S. president. ~The Patriot Post

 Race in America: The Chicago Facebook Beating 
PlVBz0t4ghPTsyeFhWPvJ_3A_QdhJ3QNY7YJTMFVT1mUohlcC9pEfbOTaweHyNf1FmHlsDMQs0K_0k6FUC7BKtxLwydn4fwr08J2iirnFWY0mvslFKFUfW-P7sREVg=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
By now most Americans have at least heard about — if not seen — the Facebook Live streamed video of four black young adults torturing a mentally disabled young white man. The four have been arrested and the city of Chicago has charged them with a "hate crime," along with kidnapping, unlawful restraint and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
          News coverage of the crime revealed just how committed the Leftmedia are to the "progressive" narrative on racism in America — namely that only white people can truly be racist. Even with clear video evidence of the four perpetrators declaring their racist motivation — yelling, "F— white people" as they tortured the young man — the media questioned whether or not race was a factor. One of the most egregious examples came from CNN's Don Lemon, who wouldn't even agree that the actions were evil, suggesting it was a result of "bad home training." This wasn't a breach of etiquette; it was a heinous and violent crime. And it calls to mind the even more evil crimes against Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom in 2007.
          The story also highlights the problem with the so-called "hate crime" categorization of criminal intent. This rather dubious classification has always been problematic, for it's meant to inject a form of political motivated subjectivity into determining the guilt level of a criminal act. In other words, it's an attempt to make a crime more evil should it be concluded that some form of hatred motivated the act, all in order to justify harsher sentencing in the name of Social Justice™.
          Finally, it's beyond question that racial tensions in America have increased significantly since Barack liar-nObama took office — and he bears much responsibility for it. The Left's suggestion that liar-nObama's presidency would usher in a new era of greater unity and an end to racial prejudice has proven not to be the case. In fact, he stubbornly insisted just yesterday, "I think the overall trajectory of race relations in this country is actually very positive."
          Wrong. The nation has witnessed a rebirth of tribalism, with racial differences taking on primary importance. In order for racism to be truly diminished, the politics of racial grievance must die. The color of one's skin must stop being anything other than a recognition of the wonderfully diverse pallet God used in filling His creation.

She calls it not being able to sell rural voters on switching from fossil fuels to solar and wind... They see it as not wanting to abandon real, and almost affordable energy for pretend, expensive and undependable energy that still requires a fossil system as a backup for when it’s night time or there isn’t any wind. An absence of facts and reality don’t slow McCarthy down a bit, as far as she’s concerned, it was a matter of her not finding the right words. In an interview at EPA headquarters, McCarthy said, “We tried to change the outreach and messaging in rural America in a number of ways, but … has it changed the rhetoric that people hear? It hasn’t. We couldn’t get it, but I wish we had.”...  http://rickwells.us/mccarthy-legacy-epa-overreach-failure-also-created-demand-trump/

{answeringmuslims.com} ~ One of the great lynch pins among the evidences for the truth of Christianity is the argument from Messianic prophecies -- that is, the fulfillment, climax and culmination of Old Testament Scripture in the person of Jesus of Nazareth... We read in the gospel that, following the resurrection, Jesus appeared to two Jewish men on the road to Emmaus, "And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself," (Luke 24:27). Along with the resurrection, the argument from Messianic prophecy was the central apologetic of the early church. For example, it is said of Apollos that he, while in Ephesus, "powerfully refuted the Jews in public, showing by the Scriptures that the Christ was Jesus," (Acts 18:28)...  http://www.answeringmuslims.com/2017/01/the-evidential-value-of-messianic.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+answeringmuslims%2FynNl+%28Answering+Muslims%29

People protest against President-elect Donald Trump
in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
{aei.org} ~ Do please relax a bit. Yes, though I no longer have a security clearance, it seems abundantly clear Russia did all it could to help Donald Trump win the US election... But even the intel community doesn’t say it won it for him. He won it, and liar-Hillary Clinton lost it. And as Trump reaffirmed this morning to the NYT, he sees the entire Russia/Wikileaks/Assange discussion in the context of a re-litigation of the election. Would we wish it otherwise? Yes. Would we want the PEOTUS to be more reticent and less tweety? Yes. But we learned once he landed the nomination that he’s not going to stop. So, a few words — I won’t call them wisdom, but perhaps counsel: .Not every tweet is policy...  http://www.aei.org/publication/on-the-trump-russia-intel-twitter-hysteria/?utm_source=paramount&utm_medium=email&utm_content=AEITODAY&utm_campaign=010917

Fort Lauderdale Shooting: Another
One Slips Through?

{townhall.com} ~ Apparently, we now live in a country where you can walk into an FBI office, admit to being an ISIS terrorist and you aren’t taken seriously, but if you make a small rounding error on your tax return, rest assured, the IRS will come calling.

The shooting in Fort Lauderdale should give sane Americans reason for pause. How many attacks must we suffer before those in charge start fighting ISIS and its sympathizers with the same kind of ferociousness leftists expend attacking American values?

Is the FBI so handcuffed by the liar-nObama administration’s political correctness they cannot identify a terrorist when he walks into their office and identifies himself as one?

CBS News tweeted Santiago walked into an Anchorage FBI office last November “claiming he was being forced to fight for ISIS.” The New York Times reports FBI officials were aware Santiago “had viewed extremist materials on the internet,” reportedly years before he deployed overseas.

Did the FBI miss the easily searchable online picture that the U.K. Dailymail.com and Fox4now.com found with Santiago sporting a keffiyeh-style scarf while shooting what appears to be the “one-finger” jihadist salute? It’s similar to the one Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev took posing in front of an Islamic flag in his bedroom.

Santiago’s brother Bryan Santiago told the Associated Press, “The FBI failed there…The federal government already knew about this for months…but they didn’t do anything.”

This has been the pattern for years.

According to the Washington Post, the FBI investigated Omar Mateen, the Orlando nightclub shooter, “for 10 months beginning in 2013, putting him under surveillance, recording his calls and using confidential informants.” Mateen was placed on a terrorism watch list and interviewed twice “before the probe was closed in March 2014 because agents concluded he was not a threat.”

Similarly, Ahmad Khan Rahami, the alleged perpetrator of the September 2016 New York and New Jersey bombings, was also under FBI investigation “more than once over the past years” ABC News reports.  Nonetheless, the FBI found “no clear evidence or indications of radicalization.”

Muslim convert Elton Simpson, one of the assailants in the 2015 Curtis Culwell Center attack in Garland, Texas was under FBI investigation in 2006. Simpson was arrested by the FBI in 2010, but a judge “dropped the terrorism allegations, citing insufficient evidence,” reports the Washington Post. So, at around 7:00 p.m. on May 3, 2015, Simpson and co-assailant Nadir Hamid Soofi fired dozens of rounds at a police car near the entrance to an exhibit featuring cartoon images of Muhammad.

Officials report co-shooter in the 2015 San Bernardino massacre, Tashfeen Malik, passed three background checks before immigrating to the U.S. from Pakistan on a fiancée visa. After the massacre, FBI director James Comey said, “We can see from our investigation that in late 2013,” Syed Rizwan Farook and his fiancé, Malik, were communicating via “direct private messages” about “their joint commitment to jihad and to martyrdom.” A 2012 FBI probe also found that Farook “was in the social circle” with “a group of jihadists in California who were arrested,” including a recruiter, Sohiel Kabir, “who helped radicalize others,” CNN reports.

The deceased Boston Marathon bombing suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was also under the FBI’s radar “on at least two occasions prior to a Russian government warning in March 2011 that said he appeared to be radicalizing,” reports Politico.com. During a Congressional testimony Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) said, “What are the chances of the Russians reporting on someone who’s pretty obscure and the FBI checks him out and finds out his name has come up twice before? Wouldn’t it have warranted keeping the investigation open longer or at least going to the Boston police and warning them?”

If nothing else, this disturbing trend teaches us that the only thing that’ll keep us safe is an administration unburdened by political correctness.

{wizbangblog.com} ~ Just as it happens in the old Perry Mason TV show, the prosecutor is basing his case on circumstantial evidence, not on hard evidence. That is the gist of the U.S. intelligence community’s assessment Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections... Three statements in the assessment are particularly interesting. Page i of the Scope and Sourcing section says, “We did not make an assessment of the impact that Russian activities had on the outcome of the 2016 election. The US Intelligence Community is charged with monitoring and assessing the intentions, capabilities, and actions of foreign actors; it does not analyze US political processes or US public opinion.” In other words, the U.S. intelligence community can’t say that Russia definitely influenced American voters...Then why is DHS taking control of the elections?  http://wizbangblog.com/2017/01/07/still-no-hard-evidence-linking-russia-to-wikileaks/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Wizbang+%28Wizbang%29

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ The Muslim population of Britain surpassed 3.5 million in 2016 to become around 5.5% of the overall population of 64 million, according to figures extrapolated from a recent study on the growth of the Muslim population in Europe... In real terms, Britain has the third-largest Muslim population in the European Union, after France, then Germany. The growth of Britain's Muslim population can be attributed to immigration, high birth rates and conversions to Islam. Islam and Islam-related issues, omnipresent in Britain during 2016, can be categorized into five broad themes: 1) Islamic extremism and the security implications of British jihadists in Syria and Iraq; 2) the continuing spread of Islamic Sharia law in Britain; 3) the sexual exploitation of British children by Muslim gangs; 4) Muslim integration into British society; and 5) the failures of British multiculturalism...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9741/islamization-britain

This betrayal was only possible due to President liar-nObama's anti-Semitic and anti-Israel policies based on lies and false assumptions and premises, along with his orders to have the U.S. abstain from the vote. And now, the Jewish people's fierce life and death struggle for the survival of their nation has a new sense of urgency unseen since May 14th, 1948 and Ben Gurion's declaration of independence for the sovereign Jewish State of Israel. Many Americans were already well aware of liar-nObama's anti-Israel sentiments, from the days he pushed Israel to retreat to pre-1967 borders, which are completely indefensible and would have ensured Israel's death as a nation...

In a way, it's fitting that Barack liar-nObama's actual indifference towards our armed forces and his disastrous misconduct of foreign policy was memorialized by the sort of national security fraud that has been the hallmark of his presidency.

The IDF's New Social Contract
by Caroliine Glick
{truthrevolt.org} ~ Sgt. Elor Azaria, who was convicted of manslaughter Wednesday for shooting a terrorist in Hebron last March, is a symptom of what may be the most dangerous threat to Israeli society today.

Azaria, a combat medic from the Kfir Brigade, arrived at the scene of an attack where two terrorists had just stabbed his comrades. One of the terrorists was killed, the other was wounded and lying on the ground, his knife less than a meter away from him.

A cameraman from the foreign-funded, Israeli- registered anti-Israel pressure group B’Tselem filmed Azaria removing his helmet and shooting the wounded terrorist. According to the military judges, the film was the centerpiece of the case against him.

The day of the incident, the General Staff reacted to the B’Tselem film with utter hysteria. Led by Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Gadi Eisenkot and then-defense minister Moshe Ya’alon, Israel’s generals competed to see who could condemn Azaria most harshly.

For the public, though, the issue wasn’t so cut and dry. Certainly Azaria didn’t act like a model soldier. It was clear, for instance, that he acted without proper authority and that his action was not permitted under the rules of engagement then in effect in Hebron.

But unlike the IDF’s senior leadership, the public believed that the fact that it was B’Tselem that produced the film meant that it had to be viewed with a grain of salt.

The name “B’Tselem” was seared into the public’s consciousness as an organization hostile to Israel and dedicated to causing it harm with the publication of the UN’s Goldstone Commission Report in 2009. Among the Israeli-registered groups that provided materials to the biased UN commission charged with finding Israel guilty of war crimes during the course of Operation Cast Lead against Hamas in late 2008 and early 2009, B’Tselem made the greatest contribution.

The Goldstone Report cited B’Tselem as the source for its slanderous “findings” 56 times.

After the UN published the Goldstone Report, Michael Posner, the US assistant secretary of state for human rights, visited Israel and met with Jessica Montell, B’Tselem’s executive director at the time.

The US Embassy’s official report of their meeting was published by WikiLeaks.

During their meeting, Montell told Posner that her group’s goal in providing the Goldstone Commission with materials was to force the government to pay a heavy price for its decision to fight Hamas, by criminalizing Israel in the court of world opinion.

As B’Tselem saw it, Israel needed to come to the point where it would consider whether it could “afford another operation like this.”

Montell explained that from B’Tselem’s perspective the root of the problem with Israel is the Israeli public. The public is the source of Israel’s bad behavior, according to B’Tselem, because it “had zero tolerance for IDF killed.” As far as the public is concerned, she said, harm to Palestinian civilians is preferable to harm to IDF soldiers.

Since, in B’Tselem’s view, the public’s commitment to the lives of its soldiers meant that it would not constitute a “moral check on war,” and check the bellicosity of IDF commanders, it fell to B’Tselem to make the IDF brass and the government care more about world opinion than they care about what the public thinks.

The public’s condemnation of B’Tselem after its role in compiling the Goldstone Commission’s libelous accusations against the IDF was made public made no impression whatsoever on the group.

Following Operation Protective Edge in 2014, B’Tselem’s materials were cited 67 times by the report of the biased UN commission put together to slander Israel.

In 2007, B’Tselem launched its “Camera Program.”

The camera initiative involved providing video cameras to B’Tselem employees and volunteers in Judea and Samaria in order to document the actions of Israeli security forces and civilians in the areas.

In many cases, the videos B’Tselem produced distorted reality for the purpose of criminalizing both groups.

For instance, in 2011, B’Tselem gave a film to Ynet’s Elior Cohen that purported to show Israeli police brutally arresting a young Palestinian boy and preventing his mother from coming to the police station with him.

But as CAMERA showed at the time, B’Tselem’s portrayal of events was fanciful at best. In all likelihood, the event was staged by the B’Tselem photographer.

At the outset of the film the boy is unseen as he throws rocks at a police van. The boy is first seen as he runs toward the B’Tselem camerawoman. For her part, the camerawoman screams at the police and identifies herself as from B’Tselem.

The police are shown asking the boy’s mother repeatedly to join them in the car. As she stands poised to enter the vehicle, a Palestinian man is shown telling her in Arabic not to go.

In July 2016, B’Tselem released a film taken in Hebron during an attempted stabbing attack by a female Palestinian terrorist against Israel police at a security checkpoint outside the Cave of the Patriarchs.

The police reported that the terrorist tried to stab a policewoman who was checking her in an inspection room. Another policewoman shot and killed her.

B’Tselem claimed that its film proved that the female terrorist was shot for no reason. But the fact is that it does no such thing. As NGO Monitor noted, the B’Tselem film neither contradicts nor proves the police’s version of events.

Over the years, the public’s growing awareness of B’Tselem’s unwavering hostility went hand in hand with its growing distress over what was perceived as the IDF’s willingness to sacrifice the safety of troops to prevent it from receiving bad press.

For instance, in 2012, a film went viral on social media that showed a platoon of combat engineers fleeing from a mob of Palestinians attacking with rocks, Molotov cocktails and slingshots.

When questioned by reporters, the soldiers said that they had repeatedly asked their battalion commander for permission to use force to disperse the crowd and they were repeatedly denied permission.

Retreat was their only option.

In 2015, another film went viral showing a group of Palestinian women hitting and screaming at a soldier trying to arrest one of them for throwing rocks at his platoon. He did nothing as he absorbed the blows. And no harm came to the women who assaulted him.

Along with the films, came stories that soldiers on leave told their friends and family about the IDF’s rules of engagement. The tales were always the same. The rules of engagement are so restrictive that all initiative is placed in the hands of the enemy. Not only can terrorists attack at will. They can flee afterward and expect that no harm will come to them, because what is most important, the soldiers explain, is to ensure that IDF maintains its reputation as the most moral army in the world.

This was the context in which Azaria killed the wounded terrorist.

Although the headlines relate to Azaria, and his family members have become familiar faces on the news, the fact is the reason the Azaria affair was the biggest story of the year is that it really has very little to do with him.

There are three forces driving the story.

First of course, there is B’Tselem.

B’Tselem’s produced the film to advance its goal of obliging Israel’s national leadership, including the IDF brass, to care more about “world opinion” than about the opinion of Israeli citizens.

Second then, is the pubic that cares more about the lives of IDF soldiers than about what the world thinks of it.

Finally, there is the IDF General Staff that is being forced to pick which side it stands with.

Since Israel was established nearly 70 years ago, the relationship between the IDF and the public has been based on an often unstated social contract.

From the public’s side, Israel’s citizens agree to serve in the IDF and risk their lives in its service.

Moreover, they agree to allow their children to serve in the military and to be placed in harm’s way.

From the IDF’s side, the commanders agree to view the lives of their soldiers as sacrosanct, and certainly as more precious than the lives of the enemy and the enemies’ society.

The third side is the General Staff. In the years leading up to the Azaria affair the generals were already showing disturbing signs of forgetting their contract with the public.

The films of fleeing soldiers and the rules of engagement weren’t the only signs of our military leadership’s estrangement.

There were also the promotions given to radical lawyers to serve in key positions in the Military Advocate-General’s unit, and the red carpet treatment given to radical leftist groups like B’Tselem that were dedicated to criminalizing soldiers and commanders.

Since the shooting in Hebron, the General Staff’s treatment of the public has become even more disdainful.

Ya’alon and Eisenkot and his generals have repeatedly offended the public with comparisons of “IDF values” with alleged processes of barbarization, Nazification and ISIS-ization of the public by the likes of Azaria and his supporters.

If there was a specific moment where the military brass abandoned its compact with society once and for all, it came on Tuesday, the day before the military court convicted Azaria of manslaughter. In a speech that day, Eisenkot insisted that IDF soldiers are not “our children.” They are grownups and they are required to obey the orders they receive.

By making this statement the day before the verdict in a case that pitted society against the General Staff, which sided with B’Tselem, Eisenkot told us that the General Staff no longer feels itself obligated by a sacred compact with the people of Israel.

Azaria is the first victim of a General Staff that has decided to cease serving as the people’s army and serve instead as B’Tselem’s army. The call now spreading through the Knesset for Azaria to receive a presidential pardon, while certainly reasonable and desirable, will likely fail to bring about his freedom. For a pardon request to reach President Reuven Rivlin’s desk, it first needs to be stamped by Eisenkot.

A pardon for Azaria would go some way toward repairing the damage the General Staff has done to its relationship with the public. But from Eisenkot’s behavior this week, it is apparent that he feels no need and has no interest in repairing that damage.

As a result, it is likely that Azaria will spend years behind bars for killing the enemy.

Moreover, if nothing forces Eisenkot and his generals to their senses, Azaria will neither be the last nor the greatest victim of their betrayal of the public’s trust.

 'Progressives' Wage the Real War on Women

Allyne Caan: In preparation for Inauguration Day, the Left is resurrecting its "war on women" propaganda. Not that it's been dormant long, mind you. But they've scheduled a demonstration in Washington the day after Donald Trump's swearing in with the message that "women's rights are human rights."
          It's an ironic approach, really. For years, Democrats have claimed the mantle of the "party of women," culminating in the nomination of the Most Accomplished Woman in History™ for president. Yet it's beyond hypocritical for the party to claim such "pro-women" bona fides when it supports coercing women into killing their unborn babies while denying them all the facts, tells women they should vote based on their sex not their brains, and pushes a candidate who attempted to break that phantom "glass ceiling" only by standing on the desk her husband used for different ends.
          Still, they do, despite continued evidence from leftist leaders and supporters alike that respecting and advancing women is merely a front for objectifying them.
          Consider, for example, leftist pop star Ariana Grande's recent complaint over a fan's sexist comments. Apparently recovered from crying at Trump's election, Grande was out with her boyfriend, rapper Mac Miller, when a male fan allegedly told Miller, "Ariana is sexy as hell, man. ... I see you hitting that!" (That's a euphemism for sexual conquest.) USA Today reports Grande said the encounter left her feeling "sick and objectified."
          As any such ungentlemanly behavior should. Yet Grande's own music and music videos invite men to "hit that," and then some. What's more, Miller — whom we would imagine Grande thinks "respects" her — raps lyrics so sexually explicit and obscene it's amazing anything said on the street would faze Grande at all.
          As the always erudite Thomas Sowell put it in his final "Random Thoughts" column, "The word 'risqué' would be almost impossible to explain to young people, in a world where gross vulgarity is widespread and widely accepted."
          Still, Grande is one of many on the Left who scream foul at the "objectification" of women while perpetrating the very injustice she supposedly rejects.
          Barack liar-nObama is another. Remember, when he said, "Beyoncé could not be a better role model for my girls because she carries herself with such class and poise and has so much talent." Surely he wasn't referring to her song lyrics that are far too graphic to reprint here. And the way Beyoncé conducts herself on stage should not be what any father wants for his daughter.
          Yet, the Black Panthers wanna-be herself once wrote, "We have to teach our boys the rules of equality and respect." Yup, respect Bill liar-Clinton style. liar-nObama seemed to agree.
          The Left's abhorrent treatment of women goes beyond just exploitation by powerful men like liar-Clinton and the Kennedy clan, or even the raunchy behavior and performance and shameless attire of Beyoncé and Grande. Leftist policies and tactics do as much if not more to objectify women.
          Need proof? After liar-Hillary Clinton's loss, rabid feminist Lena Dunham, who recently confessed she's never had an abortion but wishes she had, dried her tears (yes, she also cried) then lashed out that "white women, so unable to see the unity of the female identity, so unable to look past their violent privilege, and so inoculated with hate for themselves, showed up to the polls for [Trump]."
          To the Left, women aren't independent, thoughtful human beings free to choose Trump, liar-Clinton, or any other candidate. They're mere objects — vote tallies — who by nature of the "unity of the female identity" must toe the XX chromosome line.
          That's objectification. And young girls are fair game for leftist objectification too. That's why Planned Parenthood, which gets half a billion in taxpayer dollars each year, has repeatedly ignored reporting statutory rape. After all, women — and young teenage girls — are mere objects, good only for the abortion income they generate.
          And yet, Planned Parenthood reps will be at the "war on women" Washington demonstration, along with other leftists who fly the flag of women's rights but routinely strip women of dignity, choice and even basic legal protection against sexual predators.
          To be sure, the Left doesn't hold a monopoly on exploiting women, but they take the prize for hypocrisy on this front. So the next time you hear liberals whine about the objectification of women, remember, the loudest critic is oftentimes the chief offender.  ~The Patriot Post

{israelnationalnews.com} ~ Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu stated that the terrorist who killed four soldiers in a ramming attack in the Armon Hanatziv neighborhood of Jerusalem Sunday afternoon was inspired by the ISIS terrorist organization... "We are here after a brutal terrorist attack in which four soldiers were tragically murdered, three women and one man. We know the identity of the perpetrator, who by all indications is a supporter of the Islamic State. We have closed off the Jabal Mukaber neighborhood from which he came, and we are doing other things which I will not detail here."

{thefederalist.com} ~ On the first day of the new year, Islamic terrorists claimed another 39 victims, including Americans, in an attack at a popular nightclub in Istanbul, Turkey... The Christmas truck attack in Berlin recalls the similar July attack in Nice, France. The suspect, Tunisian asylum seeker Anis Amri, was killed in a shootout with Italian police on December 23. Amri had been denied asylum in Germany due to his terror risk, but was not deported because Tunisia would not accept him since he lacked a passport. Amri carried six different aliases from three nations and had been monitored by German authorities. He was not a “lone jihadist” but part of an ISIS cell, and traveled covertly, like some of the Paris killers, with the refugee flow from the Mediterranean. On the same day as the Berlin attack, there was a knife attack at a Virginia Metro station by an African Muslim, Ali Ahmed Mohamound. A similar knife attack occurred in New York City the day before, with the suspect still at large...

{dailycaller.com} ~ U.S. anti-ISIS military assistance is emboldening Syrian Kurdish Marxist rebels, threatening to destabilize the region for decades... The Kurdish rebels, known as the Yekîneyên Parastina Gel‎ (YPG), subscribe to a Marxist ideology propagated by a jailed terrorist leader. The YPG has deep ties to the Turkish, Kurdistan Worker’s Party (PKK), which is a Kurdish independence group and recognized as a terrorist organization by the U.S. government. The YPG, however, has proven to be the most effective force in the anti-ISIS fight in Syria. Hundreds of U.S. military advisors are embedded with Kurdish militias, and they frequently receive aerial assistance from the U.S. military. The increasing reliance on such groups by the liar-nObama administration has caused a major rift between the U.S. and Turkey, and made the YPG stronger than it has ever been before...  http://dailycaller.com/2017/01/08/obama-breathes-life-into-syrian-marxist-movement-with-millions-in-aid/?utm_source=WhatCountsEmail&utm_medium=TheDC%20Morning&utm_campaign=TheDC%20Weekend

{rickwells.us} ~ We know that there will probably be another shoe or two to drop in the war of words and more between Hussein liar-nObama and Russia... It’s like liar-nObama doesn’t realize he’s getting his nose rubbed in the soiled carpet as he asks, in an anxious and hungry tone, what’s cooking in the kitchen. On Friday a Russian official countered the arguments of the liar-nObama regime and their intelligence community narrative, declaring that US democracy was undermined by ‘president’ liar-nObama’s administration and the media, not by Moscow’s alleged hacking during the campaign. He’s a foreigner so we should probably give him a pass in describing our government as a democracy and for calling liar-nObama our ‘president.’ Russian Senator Alexey Pushkov made his comments after the public release of a “US intelligence report” that accused Russian President Putin of deliberately orchestrating an effort to “undermine public faith in the U.S. democratic process.” That doesn’t mean any cyber activity was involved, he could have been posting videos of liar-Clinton’s seizures on Facebook or photos of her 9/11 face-plant on buses on the Chicago South Side...

Investigator Mike Zullo, who joined with Arpaio in a Dec. 15 news conference disclosing nine other elements that experts concluded were copied to create liar-nObama’s document, released a video to WND explaining the additional evidence. It explains that two stamps on the liar-nObama document not only were identical in angle to the stamps on another birth certificate – that of Johanna Ah’nee from the same time period – they also had the identical vertical relationship...  http://www.wnd.com/2017/01/even-more-evidence-obama-birth-certificate-fake/

Cold War Relic, Present Day Threat

{freedomsback.com} ~ You can kick the can down the road, but when Kim Jong Un announces, as he did last Sunday, that “we have reached the final stage in preparations to test-launch an intercontinental ballistic rocket,” you are reaching the end of that road.

Since the early 1990s, we have offered every kind of inducement to get North Korea to give up its nuclear program. All failed miserably. Pyongyang managed to extort money, food, oil and commercial nuclear reactors in exchange. But it was all a swindle. North Korea was never going to give up its nukes because it sees them as the ultimate guarantee of regime survival.

The North Koreans believe that nukes confer inviolability. Saddam Hussein was invaded and deposed before he could acquire them. Kim won’t let that happen to him. That’s why Thae Yong Ho, a recent high-level defector, insisted that “As long as Kim Jong Un is in power, North Korea will never give up its nuclear weapons, even if it’s offered $1 trillion or $10 trillion in rewards.”

Meanwhile, they have advanced. They’ve already exploded a handful of nuclear bombs. And they’ve twice successfully launched satellites, which means they have the ICBM essentials. If they can miniaturize their weapons to fit on top of the rocket and control reentry, they’ll be able to push a button in Pyongyang and wipe out an American city.

What to do? The options are stark:

(1) Preemptive attack on its missile launching facilities. Doable but reckless. It is the option most likely to trigger an actual war. The North Koreans enjoy both conventional superiority and proximity: a vast army poised at the Demilitarized Zone only 30 miles from Seoul. Americans are not going to fight another land war in Asia.

(2) Shoot down the test ICBM, as advocated by the Wall Street Journal. Assuming we can. Democrats have done their best to abort or slow down anti-missile defenses since Ronald Reagan proposed them in the early 1980s. Even so, we should be able to intercept a single, relatively primitive ICBM of the sort North Korea might be capable of.

Though such a shoot-down would occur nowhere near North Korean soil, it could still very well provoke a military response. Which is why the new administration should issue a clear warning that if such a test missile is launched, we will bring it down. Barack liar-nObama is gone. Such a red line could be a powerful deterrent.

(3) Return tactical U.S. nuclear weapons to South Korea. They were withdrawn in 1991 by George H.W. Bush in the waning days of the Cold War. Gorbachev’s Soviet Union responded in kind. A good idea in general, but not on the Korean Peninsula. Pyongyang had railed constantly against their presence, but they did act as a deterrent to any contemplated North Korean aggression. Which might make them a useful bargaining chip.

(4) Economic leverage on China, upon which Pyongyang depends for its survival. Donald Trump seems to suggest using trade to pressure China to get North Korea to desist. The problem is that China has shown no evidence of being willing to yield a priceless strategic asset — a wholly dependent client state that acts as a permanent thorn and distraction to U.S. power in the Pacific Rim — because of mere economic pressure.

(5) Strategic leverage on China. We’ve been begging China for decades to halt the North Korean nuclear program. Beijing plays along with sanctions and offers occasional expressions of dismay. Nothing more. There’s one way guaranteed to get its attention. Declare that we would no longer oppose Japan acquiring a nuclear deterrent.

This is a radical step that goes against our general policy of nonproliferation. But the point is to halt proliferation to the infinitely more dangerous regime in North Korea. China is the key. The Chinese have many nightmares, none worse than a nuclear-armed Japan.

The principal strategic challenge facing the United States is the rise of revisionist powers — Russia, China and Iran — striving to expel American influence from their regions. In comparison, the Korean problem is minor, an idiosyncratic relic of the Cold War. North Korea should be a strategic afterthought, like Cuba. And it would be if not for its nukes.

That’s a big if. A wholly unpredictable, highly erratic and often irrational regime is acquiring the capacity to destroy an American city by missile. That’s an urgent problem.

North Korea may be just an unexploded ordnance of a long-concluded Cold War. But we cannot keep assuming it will never go off.

CONNECT AND COMMIT TO STAND FOR OUR COUNTRY

Americans must connect to our U.S. patriots and commit to defend our constitutional rights. Nothing matters but our liberty and our God given freedom. The Washington members of this corrupt establishment that by lies, deception and intimidation want to trash our U.S. Constitution must be expose and vote out of office. Let’s make 2017 to 2021 the time table to drain and clean the Washington swamp and re-store the people's trust on the government

Democrats and Republicans are the same, they do not represent the people of these United States. They represent the oligarchs, the transnational corporations, the financial system and the oligarchs especial interest organizations that are controlled by the oligarchs. Politicians by lies, deception and the support of the corporate news media "the propaganda machinery of the oligarchs"; are being elected by the people; and when they are in power they become the puppets of this corrupt establishment that are the main responsible for the demise of our Democracy, our Constitutional rights and freedom. Today America is a Plutocracy; most Americans are economic slaves, the middle class is disappearing and the concentration of wealth has given the elite oligarchs of this country the power to control our country, send our soldiers to war to protect their interest and to promote their ideology the "Neo-Liberalism".  that made them powerful.  They are the promoters of Globalization and the neo-colonization of the poor countries of the world. If we believe in freedom and Democracy, we must stop the traitors and form our new political Party. "WE THE PEOPLE" We are all equal with one ideology; Americans working together for the benefit of all the American people.  Our country can be great again when we connect and commit to work together for America. JFK said; do not ask what your country can do for you. but what can you do for your country. Now is the time to wake-up and start doing things for our country; united not divided. We Americans can do anything when we are united as one; believe and will be done.

I pray to God and ask God to give us the wisdom and understanding that we the people together can and will take our country back and re-store the moral values and ethics in our government, so we the people can trust on the people that we place in government to represent the people and end this corporate and government collusion that is destroying our country.

God Bless America the land of the free.

I wanted to share the following recent thought-provoking article and video contained therein that meticulously exposed the level of ‘political pandemonium, government chaos, military anarchy, social degeneracy, and international disorder’ that ‘USURPER Obama’ has caused, and continues to cause during his final weeks in office and that allegedly the Trump transition team has recently stated that Obama will have to face 'consequences' for what he is doing right now, along with taking a very close look at ‘him, (Valerie) Jarrett, (John) Kerry and his inner circle to see what they have really been doing since taking office.’ The article further states that the now transparent ‘Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama’ was given an explicit mission and/or “direct orders” from his 'C.I.A. handlers', which was to ‘transform the United States of America into a Banana Republic before the end of his second term.’ Could this be true?-You Decide:

Barack Obama State Of The Union - Public Domain

Attention Obama: Ft. Leavenworth is Calling You For Treason!-Posted on The Last Great Stand-By Voice of Reason-On January 8, 2017:

In a post last week, discussing what website’s like State of the Union are now referring to as the level of “political pandemonium, government chaos, military anarchy, social degeneracy, and international disorder” Barack Obama has caused, and continues to cause during his final weeks in office, a high level source within the Trump transition team is alleged to have made the statement: 

“At this rate the feeling is Obama will have to face consequences for what he is doing right now. We can take a very close look at him, (Valerie) Jarrett, (John) Kerry and his inner circle to see what they have really been doing…”

Given Donald Trump’s reversal on his plan to go after Hillary Clinton with a special prosecutor once in office, and given that Obama clearly has the woefully dishonest and corrupt mainstream media at his back (aka the “fake news’), I have a hard time believing that Barack Obama will face any consequences whatsoever for his actions, unless something drastic happens to make Trump reverse course, and as we all know, January 20th hasn’t come and gone just yet.

With the transition of power still far from over, and far-left groups actively recruiting for people to commit acts of violence on Inauguration Day, perhaps what happens over the two weeks could play a deciding factor in reversing President-Elect Trump’s decision to go after members of the Obama administration, including the ring leader, Barack Obama. 

In the following video, I am going to review a recent article from State of the Union titled, Obamanation: The First Banana Republic In U.S. History. More specifically, I am going to examine a statement made that refers to a recent bombshell revelation made by Sheriff Arpaio and Mike Zullo, with the help of forgery experts on multiple continents, who all confirmed that the copy of Barack Obama's long-form birth certificate released by the White House in 2011 was in fact a forgery. In the article from State of the Union, the author writes: 

“The future President Trump is completely within his authority to repeal every piece of signed legislation by Obama, after he reverses each and every executive order that the illegitimate POTUS illegally sign…as in unconstitutionally approved.”

To be clear, the author is referring not only to repealing Obamacare, and Obama’s illegal Executive Orders, but also referring to the repeal of any and every single bill signed into law by Barack Obama, because Obama is an illegitimate President; he's a man who hijacked the most powerful office on earth, and has been impersonating an officer of the United States ever since. 

If you listen to the mainstream media, the “birther” issue has long since been settled, but for those of us who live in a world of facts, not fiction, the “birther” issue is no more “settled,” than the issue of “climate change” is. 

To prove that, one of many issues the video below discusses (at least in part), is a “birther” case that made its way as high as the Alabama Supreme Court (Hugh McInnish and Virgil H. Goode, Jr. v.Jim Bennett, Alabama Secretary of State), in which the plaintiffs asserted that after Obama’s campaign somehow managed to submit multiple different versions of Obama’s birth certificate, the Secretary of State should have been required to decertify any Alabama votes for a 2012 presidential candidate who did not provide an authenticated birth certificate.

Not surprisingly, the Alabama Supreme Court chose to punt the case far from their courtroom, rather than address the issue then. That's just the beginning…

{...}

State of the Union writes:

Make no mistake about it, the now transparent Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama was given an explicit mission.  Or, should we say, “direct orders” from his C.I.A. handlers.

That mission was to transform the United States of America into a Banana Republic before the end of his second term.  Obama’s two administrations were painstakingly pieced together with shills and hacks, lackeys and toadies, to efficiently carry out this mission.

As a matter of historical fact, Obama et al. enjoyed wild success in the execution of their Banana Republic project, even though they were stuck with a Republican Congress.  How did that happen?  And why are these traitors still in Congress?!

A Banana Republic is defined by many things, and it seems that Obama hit on them all … with spectacular results.  Even with President-elect Trump coming in with his wrecking ball to knock down the Obamanation, the clock can never be turned back on so much economic destruction and financial breakdown, political pandemonium and government chaos, military anarchy and scientific mayhem, social degeneracy and moral decay, global chaos and international disorder.

Truly, Barack Hussein Obama will go down in history as the presidential catastrophe to end all catastrophes.  And, he cynically continues to wreck and ruin the American Republic right up to his very last day in the Oval Office.

WHAT'S THE POINT?

Obama must be exposed for the naked imposter that he has been.  Not to do so only legitimizes his 2 thoroughly fraudulent terms.  When a real phony submits a fake, forged copy of his alleged birth certificate to meet the most basic qualifications to even run for president, their fate is sealed.  Especially after his first order of business in January of 2009 was to officially seal off all of his personal and academic records from the U.S. citizenry.

With this clear understanding, the future President Trump is completely within his authority to repeal every piece of signed legislation by Obama, after he reverses each and every executive order that the illegitimate POTUS illegally sign…as in unconstitutionally approved.

By acting in such a consistently dictatorial manner over 8 long years, Obama essentially became America’s first in-your-face tyrant.  The unparalleled despotism that he demonstrated time and again has plunged the nation into a full-blown Banana Republic.

Please see the picture documentary below which well illustrates this extremely unfortunate situation and still devolving state of affairs, (included after the videos below).

{...}

As mentioned in the first video above, in the following videos you’ll you’ll get the full details of the investigation into President Obama’s fake birth certificate. The press conference below was first shown on Fox 10 in Phoenix, Arizona, and uploaded to YouTube on December 15th, 2016.

The far-left will complain it was “Fox News” who aired it, so it's therefore not "real news," but to anyone who isn’t too busy shooting the messenger to hear the message, they’ll realize that the “birther” issue isn’t dead by any means, not the way many on the left would have you believe. Below is the full press conference.

In the video, the investigators take aim at the media for the way they have characterized their investigation from the beginning. “You have continued to mischaracterized this… This was not about where President Obama was born. This was about his birth certificate,” said the Maricopa County public information officer.

“I didn’t want to be the guy that figured everything out, I wanted it to be the clearinghouse,” Zullo said during the press briefing.

Video: WOW: Sheriff Joe Arpaio Releases New Information on President Obama's Birth Certificate!-Posted on YouTube.com-By FOX 10 Phoenix-On December 15, 2016:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jk3KRxTfkLM

The second video below is a more condensed version with the press conference focused primarily on Mike Zullo’s findings. The video opens with Sheriff Arpaio announcing that after a five year investigation, his investigators have determined that the birth certificate presented by President Barack Obama was a fraudulently created document which has been represented as an official copy of the original certificate. Arpaio says his Sheriff’s office have been working this case since August 2011, after the Tea Party asked him to investigate.

As you'll learn, contrary to what many believe, Arpaio explains that the original intent of the the investigation was to investigate the birth certificate to silence the “birthers,” once and for all by prove the birth certificate's authenticity. Fortunately or unfortunately, the reality of the situation did not work out as planned. Arpaio says, “We had to follow the evidence,” while speaking during the press briefing.

The lead investigator, Mike Zullo, presents a video I discussed in my video at the beginning, which claims to show the Obama birth certificate has a total of at least “9 points of forgery.” He says their team consulted several experts from all across the world including in Italy, and all agree. The birth certificate Obama presented was a fraud.

Disappearing pages on Tea Party...

I see that the page,  Sharpton Promises ‘Season of Civil Disobedience’ in Response to Sessions Nomination as well as the page, McConnell: ‘First Steps’ In Obamacare Repeal Coming ‘By The End Of This Week’ have become unavailable 10 Jan 2017

I certainly _hope_ that this condition is only a server glitch and in no way indicates any outside influence.

TEN Daze Left, BlOwmo!

The Obama era is over. Here's how the military rates his legacy

His moves to slim down the armed forces, move away from traditional military might and overhaul social policies prohibiting the service of minority groups have proven divisive in the ranks. His critics have accused him of trading a strong security posture for political points, and for allowing the rise of terrorists like the Islamic State group whom the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were supposed to silence.  

More than half of troops surveyed in the latest Military Times/Institute for Veterans and Military Families poll said they have an unfavorable opinion of Obama and his two-terms leading the military. About 36 percent said they approve of his job as commander in chief.

Their complaints include the president’s decision to decrease military personnel (71 percent think it should be higher), his moves to withdraw combat troops from Iraq (59 percent say it made America less safe) and his lack of focus on the biggest dangers facing America (64 percent say China represents a significant threat to the U.S.)

But more than two-thirds support Obama's mantra that securing America means building strong alliances with foreign powers. And more than 60 percent think his use of drones and special forces teams for precision strikes — instead of large-scale military operations — has helped U.S. national security.

That’s a conflicted response to a president who entered the White House vowing to end U.S. involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan but instead leaves as the first American president to oversee two full terms with combat troops deployed to hostile zones. [*]

> There's the legacy of the worst potus in American history.  That Nobel thingy was merely an incentive...pom poms from the Euro-liberal cheerleaders, if you will...to advance the global-warming agenda. Which is as much a LIE as the democrats selling the American people the Obamacare story.  "They had to pass it - BEFORE we can KNOW what's in it". Those were the words of a California burnout and her most "transarent"  party.

I'm reminded of the 70s sitcom, "Welcome Back, Kotter"...

To Obama and Hillary,
UP your SHOOTS . . .w/ our TROOPS combat BOOTS!  

TEN daze to go!

{nationalreview.com} ~ One reason for the emergence of outsider Donald Trump is the old outrage that elites seldom experience the consequences of their own ideologically driven agendas... Hypocrisy, when coupled with sanctimoniousness, grates people like few other human transgressions: Barack liar-nObama opposing charter schools for the inner city as he puts his own children in Washington’s toniest prep schools, or Bay Area greens suing to stop contracted irrigation water from Sierra reservoirs, even as they count on the Yosemite’s Hetch Hetchy project to deliver crystal-clear mountain water to their San Francisco taps.  The American progressive elite relies on its influence, education, money, and cultural privilege to exempt itself from the bad schools, unassimilated immigrant communities, dangerous neighborhoods, crime waves, and general impoverishment that are so often the logical consequences of its own policies — consequences for others, that is. Abstract idealism on behalf of the distant is a powerful psychological narcotic that allows caring progressives to dull the guilt they feel about their own privilege and riches...  http://www.nationalreview.com/article/443466/

{rickwells.us} ~ Hussein liar-nObama is concerned about his legacy, but not with the infidel American people... It’s how he’s viewed in the Islamic world that counts to the pretend ‘president’ and he’s doing everything he can to be seen as a great liberator and jihadi. Toward that end liar-nObama is confirmed to be planning to transfer a minimum of 18 more terrorists out of Gitmo. He just announced on Thursday that another four, all Yeminis, will be heading for the country where liar-nObama bowed to their King, Saudi Arabia. It seems his days of bowing to Islamists and serving their cause aren’t anywhere near finished yet. Now another new batch of prisoners, who arrived at a mass, simultaneous epiphany on the evils of their terrorist ways, have decided to become “civilized.” They’ll return to a life of breeding goats, complemented by whatever form of employment they might choose when not engaged in their favorite pastime, taking liar-nObama up on his convincing offer of “this is your last chance, Trump is coming.”...   http://rickwells.us/obama-passing-gitmo-free-cards-like-halloween-candy/

Schumer And The Schumer Clowns Targeting Free, Sovereign America

{rickwells.us} ~ Lou Dobbs has a few thought on “the man leading the Dem’s obstructionist charge on Capitol Hill. He is none other than Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York... The same Schumer, who back in November said he could work with President-elect Trump. Trump reciprocated at the time with this tweet: ‘ I have always had a good relationship with Chuck Schumer. He is far smarter than Harry dinky-R and has the ability to get things done. Good news!'” “But that was then and now is something all together different,” says Dobbs. “The President-elect today dubbed Schumer ‘head clown’ after the Senate Minority Leader accused Republicans of wanting to ‘make Americans sick again’ by repealing liar-nObamacare.” Dobbs says, “Too low even for a man of Schumer’s standards, and of course all the Dems following the head clown will be forever known as Schumer clowns. And suddenly Schumer doesn’t like name calling.” He plays a clip of Schumer proclaiming this as ‘not a time for calling names. It’s time for them to step up to the plate if they want to repeal and show us what they’d replace it with.” As always, the argument from one leftist closely mirrors the others. That’s the same lame and poorly grounded pitch liar-nObama made in a Vox interview...

{rickwells.us} ~ The mechanisms and propaganda for this declaration have been in the works since the closing months of the election but the upset victory by Donald Trump made implementation a little more delicate... Now that they’ve had a couple of months of selling the mantra that “the Russians hacked the election,” to provide themselves with a permission slip, the globalists at DHS are officially putting our state-run election systems under their control, “in the name of security.” Hiding behind the claims that “increasingly sophisticated cyber bad actors” and an election infrastructure that’s “vital to our national interests,” mandate that Jihadi Jeh Johnson and his band of jihadists and criminals at DHS take over the United States elections. They can’t let the American people get in their way again...This has always been a state control issue not government.  http://rickwells.us/jihadi-jeh-johnson-makes-official-election-systems-now-protection/

{menrec.com} ~ Fox News host Tucker Carlson brought Paul Davies, editorial page editor for the Philadelphia Inquirer, onto his show for a discussion about the alleged Russian cyberhacking conspiracy involving the 2016 election... In an editorial earlier this week, the Inquirer blasted President-elect Donald Trump because he “does not seem to understand or care that the United States was attacked.” “Whose side is Trump on?” they asked. Carlson asked Davies why he felt any of the information gleaned from Wikileaks – which has consistently claimed none of their emails were hacked and handed over by Russian intelligence, but rather leaked from a disgruntled DNC worker – should have remained hidden from the American people. He had no answer...

When "Peace" Means Capitulation to Islam

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ What inspired al-Qaeda to attack the United States, according to one of the terrorists, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), who helped plan 9/11?... The American psychologist, James E. Mitchell, who crafted the interrogation program that helped stop terrorist attacks and saved countless lives after 9/11, just published a book, Enhanced Interrogation. In it, KSM is quoted as saying that al-Qaeda expected the United States to respond to 9/11 as it had to the 1983 bombing of the US Marine barracks in Beirut -- the United States "turned tail and ran." In the end, KSM told Mitchell: "We will win because Americans don't realize... we do not need to defeat you militarily; we only need to fight long enough for you to defeat yourself by quitting. ... Eventually, America will expose her neck for us to slaughter."...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9726/peace-capitulation-islam

Too Much Information
by Tom McLanughlin
too-much-information.jpg
{tommclaughlin.blogspot.com} ~ Every day I get emails from news aggregators, those individuals and organizations who scan the news day and night and select links to what they think I should know. I signed up for them but I cannot read them all. There’s not enough time in the day — and if there was, I don’t have the energy. I have to delete some each day without reading them and I feel guilty when I do that. I feel I’m missing something I should know.
boy-reading-book.jpg
There was a time I thought it was possible to get at least a cursory understanding of anything and everything. Long ago I learned that’s not possible, but sometimes I forget. As a boy, I read newspapers, magazines, and  books of all types. My father subscribed to The Boston Globe, The Lowell Sun, Time, Newsweek, US News and World Report, National Geographic, and others. Occasionally, I’d see a Playboy left in the woods. The library was just over a mile away. I also purchased comic books and Superman was my favorite. Then there was a collection of Classics Illustrated — abridged, edited, comic-book formatted classic books like “Last of the Mohicans”; “Moby Dick”; “Silas Marner”; and many others. There was never a lack of things to read. It was a rich environment for a boy who wanted to learn about the world, past and present.
vatican_painting.jpg
And I was sent to school — Catholic schools from second grade through high school. There I was taught many things, including the long history of the Catholic Church — the oldest, continually-functioning institution on earth. After that, I attended various colleges and earned degrees. All during that time, I took lessons from the school of hard knocks and I have the scars to prove it.
History-is-not-was-it-is.-William-Faulkner.jpg
Understanding the present is difficult enough but then I was a history teacher. I had to help students make sense of the human past and relate it to the present. Courses were chunked into specific places and time spans but that didn't make it much easier really. There was the stuff we know happened, but what did it mean? It was humbling.
If-you-dont-know-history-then-you-dont-know-anything.-You-are-a-leaf-that-doesnt-know-it-is-part-of-a-tree.-Michael-Crichton.jpg
Since the late 20th century, I’ve used the internet to supplement my information gathering, but I have mixed feelings about it. My laptop has become the primary way I interact with the world beyond family, and sometimes with family as well through texts, email, and social media. I’m using it now to write this. Soon I’ll send it out for publication in various places, hard copy and digital.
maxresdefault.jpg
In my pocket is another device with which I can tap the worldwide web, but I prefer my laptop because I don’t like typing with my thumbs, because the laptop is faster, and because its screen is bigger. I can’t remember the last time I looked online for information and didn’t find it. Can you? So, nearly all of us have something in our pockets that can reveal to us almost any kind of facts we may be looking for.
f54dc1f848285aa1824f2ba079c6d60e.jpg
But is this access making us wiser? Better citizens? Better people? Not from my perspective it isn’t. For many of us, the information we’re looking for isn’t edifying. For some, it’s gossipy. For others, it’s prurient. Online, there’s always an option to go in a different direction. We may have originally been searching for edification, but were distracted and taken somewhere else.
P1110053.JPG
That’s not possible when we’re reading a book. Turn the page and we go where the author wants to take us, and if we chose the book wisely, that’s a positive direction. We can put the book down and pick up some kind of pulp, but it has to be readily available. To read a Playboy growing up, I would have to close whatever I was reading, go out into the woods, look for it, and it probably wouldn’t be there. Online in the 21st century, hooks are everywhere. If someone nibbles, more is just a compulsive click away. We must choose not to bite. When laptops with wireless internet were issued to all my students during my last years teaching, use of social media or accessing pornography were forbidden, but it was difficult to monitor, especially because they could be taken home. Compared to Playboy of my youth, pornography available to children today is shockingly evil.
quote-if-you-want-to-know-the-real-meaning-of-pornography-it-is-the-utter-dissociation-of-martin-amis-112-26-26.jpg
Even without distractions, it’s not possible to learn all we want to know. There’s simply too much information available at our fingertips now. We’re nearly always on overload. and we don’t take time to process, and our online experience tends to be solitary. Someone may put a phone under our eyes wanting us to watch something, but how often do we discuss it? How much time do we spend just thinking about it? Not nearly enough would be my guess. Instead, we're always looking for more.

All this is taking us all somewhere, but exactly where is anybody’s guess.

More Than a Hate Crime – Part 2

By Craig Andresen and Diane Sori – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

By now, everybody has seen, or at the very least heard of the video, discussCH-1.jpg?width=135ed in detail in “More Than a Hate Crime Part 1,” (a must read op-ed) in which a band of Black Lives Matter goons kidnapped and tortured a disabled man while live-streaming the entire event on Facebook.

During that sickening, disgusting act…the BLM goons put tape over the man’s mouth, beat him, cut him, cut his clothes, kicked him…all as the man was on the floor…they screamed at him…telling the man to say, “F*** Trump” and “F*** white people.”

They have been arrested. They have, after some deep thought by Chicago police, been charged with a hate crime.

But left wing, liberal/socialist mainstream media…is taking the side of the BLM haters.

 Needless Bloodshed: Chicago 2016 Edition 
tBiFfCSyT8_LKL0B4qqA9VvbRGKVCorllz2miYFZtjvQXtop9aQcj8zfelovM8g2HwiGGrDX56z0bAO1QsRxP3S5xg1MlRZ5Ya0H6TRDg9R2KRyOt6h_dKK7KosrUQ=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
In Chicago, 2016 began and ended on a bloody note. And 2017 is picking up right where 2016 left off. We warned in February that the largely "gun free" Windy City's number of homicides was rising at an alarming, perhaps historic, rate. And while (thankfully) no records ended up being broken, the cumulative number of murders for 2016 was bad enough and definitely far worse than recent years. Officially, 762 lives were needlessly lost on the streets of Chicago last year. This represents "the most in two decades in the city and more than New York and Los Angeles combined," CBS News reports (New York and LA registered 628 homicides). Moreover, "The increase in homicides compared to 2015, when 485 were reported, is the largest spike in 60 years."
          And it only took a few hours for 2017 to ring in additional homicides. As reported by the Chicago Tribune, "An argument between two men at an Uptown bar in the early hours of Jan. 1 ended with the two shooting at one another, leaving both dead. Their deaths ushered in the new year, marking the first and second homicides of 2017 and keeping up 2016's soaring pace of violence." As a side note, Chicago is not alone when it comes to worsening crime. Just before Christmas, The Wall Street Journal issued a report documenting a similar trend all over the nation: "Sixteen of the 20 largest police departments reported a year-over-year rise in homicides as of mid-December. ... Nationally, the murder rate rose in 2015 for the first time in nearly a decade, though it remains well below where it stood during the 1990s."
          That last part is somewhat comforting. But what isn't reassuring is the current trend and the risk our leftist politicians take in bringing us perilously closer to a dark age through fomenting racial grievances on urban poverty plantations and waging a war on cops, all while continuing to disarm law-abiding citizens. Barack liar-nObama will be in his hometown of Chicago Jan. 10 to present his farewell address. His speech will surely be replete with self-praise and adoration for the so-called progress his administration has made. It would be more appropriate if he offered a eulogy for the thousands who have been slain under leftist policies.  ~The Patriot Post

 OPINION IN BRIEF 
Victor Davis Hanson: "Partly, the piling on Israel is due to American leverage over Israel as a recipient of U.S. aid. As a benefactor, the liar-nObama administration expects that Israel must match U.S. generosity with obeisance. Yet the U.S. rarely gives similar 'how dare you' lectures to less liberal recipients of American aid, such as the Palestinians for their lack of free elections. Partly, the cause of global hostility toward Israel is jealousy. If Israel were mired in Venezuela-like chaos, few nations would care. Instead, the image of a proud, successful, Westernized nation as an atoll in a sea of self-inflicted misery is grating to many. And the astounding success of Israel bothers so many failed states that the entire world takes notice. But partly, the source of anti-Israelism is ancient anti-Semitism. If Israelis were Egyptians administering Gaza or Jordanians running the West Bank (as during the 1960s), no one would care. The world’s problem is that Israelis are Jews. Thus, Israel earns negative scrutiny that is never extended commensurately to others. liar-nObama and his diplomatic team should have known all this. Perhaps they do, but they simply do not care."  ~The Patriot Post

UnCorked: Ireland's Pseudo-Academic
Anti-Israel Hate-Fest

University College Cork, in Ireland
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ The passage of UN Security Council Resolution 2334 on December 23 2016 has upset more than one apple cart. By declaring that Israeli settlements have no legal validity and are a "Flagrant Violation of International Law"... the resolution has handed the Palestinians a weapon as powerful as any they have used against the Jewish state in their many physical attacks upon it for more than a century. Lawfare has for many years now replaced warfare although not terror as the Palestinian method of choice for the long-term elimination of Israel; this new resolution, even if only advisory, is a major step along the way to declare, not just the settlements but the entirety of Israel itself as illegal. Almost all countries in the world, along with the UN, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), the Arab League and the Socialist "Left" now consider the Zionist project to create a living space for Jews to be a colonialist conspiracy against the "aboriginal" inhabitants of a legendary state of "Palestine"...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9701/ireland-conference-israel

Why Did DNC Force FBI To Use A Report
They Paid For In Hacking Investigation?

{lidblog.com} ~ On Wednesday, the DNC tried to throw the FBI under the bus by saying that neither the FBI nor any other intelligence agency ever did an independent assessment of the organization’s breached servers... Instead, they alleged, the FBI relied exclusively on information from private digital forensics company Crowdstrike. While essentially true, the Democratic Party left out one very important piece of information…the DNC wouldn’t allow the FBI to look a their servers for the hacking investigation, instead forced them to use the Crowdstrike report paid for by the Party. “The DNC had several meetings with representatives of the FBI’s Cyber Division and its Washington (DC) Field Office, the Department of Justice’s National Security Division, and U.S. Attorney’s Offices, and it responded to a variety of requests for cooperation, but the FBI never requested access to the DNC’s computer servers.”...  http://lidblog.com/dnc-hacking-fbi-server/

Russian Hacking Report Embedded & Analyzed

{lidblog.com} ~ The Intelligence Community released their report on the hacking of the DNC and the liar-Clinton campaign (full report embedded below) and in their opinion... the reason for the hacking was that Vladimir Putin wanted liar-Hillary Clinton to lose the election and preferred Donald Trump as president. Because giving the specific evidence they have would compromise sources, the report was redacted and offered no specific evidence of the hacking, but it does prove the conclusions of the FBI, the CIA and the National Security Agency on their assessments of Moscow’s motives and intentions. Much of their conclusions on the motives were anecdotal in nature, i.e. Putin had been complaining about liar-Hillary, so they concluded that he wanted liar-Hillary to lose...Again, that conclusion wasn’t base on firm evidence.  http://lidblog.com/intelligence-releases-russian-hacking-report/

{foxnews.com} ~ By passing legislation repealing liar-nObamaCare through budget reconciliation, lawmakers have an opportunity to remove nearly 20 taxes which will save taxpayers more than one trillion dollars over the next decade... Repealing these taxes is a huge win for middle class taxpayers, who were hit with an avalanche of tax increases despite Barack liar-nObama’s “firm pledge” not to sign “any form of tax increase” on any American making less than $250,000. The trillion dollars in higher taxes have restricted health care choice, increased costs, made saving more difficult, and granted government more control over care at the expense of individual control...  http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/01/06/grover-norquist-why-repeal-obamacare-means-giant-tax-cut-for-middle-class.html

{conservativezone.com] ` A major factor in Middle America’s support of Donald Trump during the election was his promise to put a halt to rampant illegal immigration. While dealing with the estimated 12 million illegal aliens already in this country will prove to be a lengthy ordeal... Trump has promised to immediately stop granting refugee status to immigrants from the Middle East until proper vetting procedures can be put into place. President liar-nObama and his progressive supporters claim it is undemocratic to deny access to refugees from war-torn countries like Syria. The implication is that Trump and those who voted for him are heartless and un-American. The irony in this is that the top five states having unvetted refugees from Syria forced on them are red states (Republican), not blue (Liberal). In 2016, the liar-nObama administration told Congress it intended to permanently resettle 110,000 refugees in 2017, about half of them coming from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Burma, and other countries that are jihadist hotspots where proper vetting of refugees is virtually impossible...  http://www.conservativezone.com/articles/the-hypocrisy-of-progressives-and-refugee-placement/

Petty Partisanship From an Exiting liar-nObama
by David Limbaugh

{townhall.com} ~ I don't know about you, but I feel a strong sense of optimism in the air. However, neither President liar-nObama nor his Democratic Party shares it, and the Democrats are gearing up for obstruction mode -- not a renewed period of cooperation, which they always demand when they're in power.

American businesses are relieved that President liar-nObama's anti-business boot will finally be lifted from their throats. They are energized by President-elect Donald Trump's promises to reduce their tax and regulatory burden and re-establish a pro-entrepreneurial climate.

We are already seeing concrete results. Ford announced that it is canceling its plans to invest $1.3 billion in a new manufacturing plant in Mexico and will instead devote $700 million to expand production in the United States. CEO Mark Fields said: "We look at all factors, including what we view as a more positive U.S. manufacturing business environment under President-elect Trump. And it's literally a vote of confidence around some of the pro-growth policies that he has been outlining, and that's why we're making this decision to invest here in the U.S."

Another positive sign comes from economists at HSBC Bank, who raised their forecast for global growth over the next two years based on robust manufacturing activity, a resilient China and, most of all, the fiscal boost expected to come in the United States.

President liar-nObama has falsely claimed that the U.S. economy under his watch has been robust, but everyone knows better, and these optimistic signs we're witnessing in anticipation of the Trump presidency are proof of it.

But liar-nObama and the Democrats will have none of it. They are not about to stand by while people criticize liar-nObama's poor economic record. They must perpetuate the fiction that his leftist policies worked, so the propaganda continues.

After every presidential election in which their candidate wins, Democrats claim a strong mandate to advance their agenda and shame Republicans for resisting. When Republican George W. Bush won a narrow victory over Democrat Al Gore in 2000, they spent most of their time trying to delegitimize Bush -- falsely charging that he had stolen the election, which they had actually tried to steal themselves.

Trump won an impressive electoral victory in November, but Democrats have nevertheless denied he has any mandate at all, citing his loss in the popular vote and claiming Russian hacking helped him win. Both of these claims are bogus. Our presidents are elected by the Electoral College, not by the total popular vote, and under our system, Trump has a strong mandate. Not only was Trump's electoral victory decisive but also a shocking percentage of counties supported Trump, and the Republicans' level of control of state governments is staggering.

Democrats have signaled they are going to obstruct Trump's agenda from the get-go. What do you expect when their hero is in full-on Trump-sabotage mode on his way out of the Oval Office?

Democrats have already taken aim at Trump's proposed nominees, as opposed to the GOP's rapid approval of liar-nObama's Cabinet appointees. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Democrats will work with Trump only if he "moves completely in the Democrats' direction and abandons his Republican colleagues." Can you imagine the outcry if Republicans had made such a statement toward liar-nObama in 2008?

But liar-nObama himself is leading the charge. The Hill reports that "liar-nObama has taken a number of unilateral actions in the waning days of his tenure that appear designed to box in President-elect Donald Trump." The Hill, no liberal rag, is exactly right. Examples abound: his ban on oil and gas drilling across large swaths of the Atlantic and Arctic oceans, his closing off of 1.6 million acres of Western land to development, his eliminating a registration system used mostly on Muslim immigrants, his administration's abstention on the United Nations Security Council vote condemning Israeli settlements and Secretary of State John hanoi-Kerry's subsequent speech maligning Israel on this issue, and liar-nObama's sanctioning of Russian entities for allegedly influencing our presidential election. liar-nObama is also planning to move ahead with his reckless plan to release more prisoners from Guantanamo Bay despite Trump's urging a halt to the process. And liar-nObama made a trip to Capitol Hill to embolden Democrats to resist any GOP efforts to repeal liar-nObamacare. The "bipartisan" exemplar met only with Democrats, urging them not to "rescue" Republicans by helping them to pass liar-nObamacare replacement measures.

How can we not see the vindictiveness behind liar-nObama's actions? He is now sanctioning Russia when, according to Sen. Tom Cotton, he actively blocked measures to take a firmer line on Russia during his term and when, according to former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton, he allowed the Russians to walk all over him for eight years.

On top of all this, liar-nObama petulantly claimed that he could have won a third term if he had been permitted to run against Trump. He is just beside himself that the American electorate so resoundingly rejected his agenda. liar-nObama also said that liar-Hillary Clinton would have won in a landslide if young people had been the only ones who voted.

This is nothing but pure class from the man who promised to bring hope and change and a renewed spirit of bipartisanship to America.

 Clapper: No Evidence Russians Changed

Katie Pavlich:Testifying in front of the Senate Armed Services Committee Thursday morning, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper made it clear Russian hacking didn't change the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
          "They did not change any vote tallies or anything of that sort," Clapper stated. 
          Although vote totals weren't changed, U.S. intelligence shows Russia did mount a major campaign to push propaganda into the minds of American voters through Twitter, fake news websites and the Russian government backed television station RT, which broadcasts in the United States.
          "The Russians have a long history of interfering in elections, theirs and other people's," Clapper stated. "I don't think we've ever encountered a more aggressive or direct campaign to interfere in our election than we've seen in this case."  
          DNI is expected to release an extensive report about Russian cyber interference in the coming days. ~Townhall

 Schumer Seeks to Clog the DC Drain

Donald Trump's impressive cabinet choices have many Democrats so riled they're planning to attempt everything in their limited power to slow the confirmation process. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has vowed to lead Senate Democrats in an unprecedented manner by seeking to drag out the confirmation hearings of at least eight of Trump's cabinet nominees to at least March. Schumer stated, "Any attempt by Republicans to have a series of rushed, truncated hearings before Inauguration Day and before the Congress and public have adequate information on all of them is something Democrats will vehemently resist."
          Republicans quickly countered by reminding Democrats of the fact that in 2009 Republicans cooperated with Barack liar-nObama's cabinet picks, confirming 10 nominees within the first week of his entering office. It's the long held view of the Senate that an incoming president has the right to pick his own people. Ironically, it was Schumer himself who stated this past November, "We have a moral obligation, even beyond the economy and politics, to avoid gridlock and get the country to work again. We have to get things done." Except when it comes to Trump's cabinet, we suppose.
          The good news is that thanks to Harry dinky-Reid's instigation of the "nuclear option" in 2013, Democrats have no power to deny confirmation and little recourse to slow the process. They are now having to pay for dinky-Reid's power-hungry decision, leaving Schumer to play the role of the "squeaky wheel" in the hopes of pressuring Republicans to concede some of their demands. However, it appears that Republicans are having none of it. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McCon-nell's spokeswoman, Antonia Ferrier, stated, "Our committees and chairmen are fully capable of reviewing the incoming cabinet nominations with the same rules and procedures as the same committees did with President liar-nObama's nominations."
          Unfortunately, Schumer is seemingly prepared to play this game with the Supreme Court, too, where the filibuster is still in play. "If they don't appoint somebody good, we're going to oppose them tooth and nail," Schumer said. And we all know what "good" means: "It's hard for me to imagine a nominee that Donald Trump would choose that would get Republican support that [Democrats] could support." Are Republicans prepared to fight?  ~The Patriot Post

{foreignaffairs.com} ~ Throughout his unorthodox presidential campaign, Donald Trump repeatedly criticized Washington’s European allies for failing to adequately contribute to NATO... Although the president-elect’s statements raised hackles in the United States and Europe, he did bring up important questions about whether the U.S.-established international order—with its global security guarantees—had disproportionally benefitted allies in Europe and Asia, all on the United States’ dime. As a founding member of NATO, Norway is not one of those free riders Trump implicated. Norway has certainly benefitted from U.S. security guarantees and has, in the process, transformed itself from an impoverished nation, at the end of World War II, to one of the world’s richest today. But over the past few decades, Norway has prioritized its strategic relationship with Washington and now stands out as one of its most reliable allies...

We further assess Putin and the Russian Government developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump.”...I say so what, it didn't change the voters.

Cybersecurity Pioneer McAfee
‘Russian Hack’ Is Not True
by Harry Hibbs
{gopthedailydose.com} ~ In case any of you believe that Hillary lost because Russia hacked the election, internet security guru John McAfee has a few words of advice for you... The sloppiness of the alleged DNC hack by itself proves it was not organized by a nation state, and the “utter nonsense” presented as proof of Moscow’s involvement is rather evidence of intelligence agencies being “ignorant and naïve,” John McAfee told RT. The so-called evidence of the Russian involvement in the hacks not only looks like “the most deceptive propaganda was perpetrated on the American public” but actually proves quite the opposite, McAfee believes… Thus, McAfee believes, the whole “Russian hacking” narrative is either “propaganda intended to incite the American people, to anger toward Russia for some reason, or our intelligence community is so ignorant and naïve that they should all be replaced.”...  http://gopthedailydose.com/2017/01/06/cybersecurity-pioneer-mcafee-russian-hack-not-true/

{jewishworldreview.com} ~ Over the New Year's weekend, President Barack liar-nObama's chief policy adviser and closest strategist, Valerie Jarrett, told a talk show host that her boss would have a happy legacy because there was an absence of scandal in his administration. When first I heard this preposterous claim, I thought I had misheard it. Yet it is apparently true that President liar-nObama and his team somehow can overlook recent history and behave as if events with which we are all familiar never happened.

Here is the back story.

When liar-nObama became president in 2009 and enjoyed significant Democratic majorities in both houses of Congress, he and his colleagues devoted themselves entirely to an issue nowhere in the Constitution — health care. They did not address other issues dear to them and their base, such as guns, abortion, taxes, war, jobs and civil liberties. Rather, they sought to alter radically the relationship of the federal government to every person in America by imposing upon each of us the obligation to purchase a product — namely, health insurance — whether we wanted it or not.

The abominable statute they enacted, which has caused millions of folks to lose their primary care physician and millions more to see their premiums skyrocket and still millions more to see their full-time jobs become part-time, has acquired the nickname liar-nObamacare.

Instead of reducing taxes or regulations or spending so more folks would have better-paying jobs, the president and his folks were determined to tell us all how to stay healthy. liar-nObamacare passed on a party-line vote, with not a single vote to spare in the Senate.

At the time it was enacted, the president argued vociferously that the financial consequence of not obtaining health insurance — the penalty for disobeying the law — was not a tax. He made that argument because he had promised Democrats — many of whom lost their congressional seats for going along with his utopian experiment — that he would not raise taxes to accomplish his purposes.

When the statute was challenged in the federal courts and the various challenges were consolidated before the Supreme Court, the challengers did not dispute the claim that the penalty was not a tax. A court cannot consider arguments or evidence not put to it. For instance, in an automobile accident, if all eyewitnesses state that a traffic light in question was green at the time of the collision, the court may not find that it was red.

Yet notwithstanding agreement among the parties before the Supreme Court and notwithstanding the absence of any evidence that the penalty was a tax, the Supreme Court made new law by declaring this non-tax to be a tax and then ruling that Congress can tax anything it wants — so Congress can force you to purchase a product you don't want by taxing you if you fail to make the purchase.

None of this is new. It is the president's known legacy. It is a legacy of the colossal failure of the central planning of one-fifth of the economy. It has resulted in an expansion of federal powers and a reduction in the availability of health care providers and is yet another glaring rejection of the Constitution as the supreme law of the land.

While all of this was going on, the scandals Jarrett overlooked were brewing. Operation Fast and Furious, which began in the George W. Bush administration, exploded under liar-nObama, when the guns the feds intentionally had let slip into the hands of Mexican gangs were used to kill one of their own.

Then came Libya, where heavy armaments the feds secretly had passed into the hands of terrorists masquerading as rebels were used to kill the U.S. ambassador and topple a friendly government.

Then came the seizure of telephone records of journalists critical of the administration by the Department of Justice, which secretly convinced a federal judge that talking to a whistleblower and reporting on his questionable behavior somehow involved reporters criminally in that behavior.

Then came the targeting by the IRS of conservative advocacy groups by denying them tax-exempt status for political reasons.

Then came the Secret Service scandal in which dozens of agents were caught in sexual encounters on foreign trips in hotels where the president was staying — encounters that involved the loss of laptops and itineraries and jeopardized the president's physical safety — and two directors lost their jobs.

Then came the Edward Snowden revelations that the government was capturing every keystroke of every person using every computer and mobile device in the United States yet was still failing to keep us safe and that a senior liar-nObama official had lied about this under oath. And all this was done without the approval of Congress, using a secret court that rationalized its way around the Constitution.

While all this was happening, the president was secretly using drones to kill Americans and others in foreign lands — folks never charged with crimes — using laughable legal authority as justification. Also, then-Secretary of State liar-Hillary Clinton was exposing state secrets — including the names and whereabouts of undercover American agents — to friend and foe alike, and the FBI declined to recommend prosecution. And while liar-nClinton was under investigation, her husband, former President Bill liar-Clinton, had a private meeting on an airport tarmac with the attorney general — whom he had once appointed a U.S. attorney — at which they claim they discussed their grandchildren.

Which legacy is worse, failure or scandal? Is it any wonder Donald Trump tapped into the raw nerves of the folks the president and the Democrats forgot about and rode their anger to victory? Americans today are less free, less prosperous, less safe and trillions more in debt than we were eight years ago. Can Trump effectively change course after so much damage has been done? We soon will know.
