Obama is Responsible for Racial Tensions in America Today

Racism is America’s original sin, and despite a century and a half and more of efforts to put it behind us, it is more of an issue than ever. A great deal of this is the responsibility of a man whose election to the presidency was hailed as the beginning of a new, post-racial era in American society, a man who was supposed to embody America’s rejection of racism: Barack Hussein Obama.

There were many people who opposed Obama who nonetheless hailed his election to the presidency for what it showed about the United States. There are vanishingly few countries that have ever elected as their head of state someone from a minority group that previously faced discrimination. Obama’s election was supposed to herald the end of racism and the beginning of an era in which human beings truly were judged by the content of their character rather than by the color of their skin.

Things didn’t work out that way. As Rating America’s Presidents: An America-First Look at Who Is Best, Who Is Overrated, and Who Was An Absolute Disaster demonstrates, throughout his tenure, Obama stoked racial tensions rather than calming them. When he took office, the Justice Department was pursuing a case against the New Black Panther Party for voter intimidation in Philadelphia. Obama’s attorney general, Eric Holder, abruptly dropped the case in May 2009 and refused to cooperate with further investigations, giving the impression that the Black Panthers were getting away with voter intimidation because of their race.

Even worse, Obama’s response to several widely publicized incidents also exacerbated racial tensions. On July 16, 2009, black intellectual Henry Louis Gates found himself locked out of his Massachusetts home and began trying to force his way in. An officer arrived to investigate a possible break-in; Gates began berating him and was arrested for disorderly conduct. Obama claimed that the police “acted stupidly” and noted the “long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by police disproportionately,” although there was no indication of racial bias in the case. He invited Gates and the police officer to the White House for a “beer summit,” which the media hailed as a manifestation of his determination to heal racial divisions, when in fact it was just the opposite: he was taking a case of misunderstanding and disorderly conduct and portraying it as a racial incident requiring presidential reconciliation.

Obama also made matters worse yet again when a young Hispanic, George Zimmerman, on February 26, 2012, shot dead a young black man, Trayvon Martin, in what was widely reported as a racial hate crime. NBC edited a recording of Zimmerman’s call to the police to give the false impression that Zimmerman was suspicious of Martin solely because he was black. Instead of trying to calm the situation, Obama stoked the idea that Zimmerman acted out of racial hatred and said, “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.” Yet Zimmerman was acquitted of murder and the Justice Department declined to prosecute him for a hate crime.

Obama made a similar rush to judgment in the case of Ahmed Mohamed, a Muslim high school student who was arrested in September 2015 after bringing what appeared to be a suitcase bomb to his Texas high school. Mohamed claimed it was a homemade clock and that he was a victim of “Islamophobic” bigotry. Obama invited him to the White House, making the boy a symbol of the nation’s “Islamophobia” and the need to overcome it. Mohamed’s father filed a lawsuit against the school district, which was dismissed when he failed to establish that the school had engaged in any prejudice or discrimination.

In line with all this, shortly after taking office, Obama embarked upon two world tours that critics quickly dubbed the “apology tours,” as at every stop the President of the United States had some negative words for the country he governed. He had little to say about America being the most generous, and most free, nation on earth.

As Rating America’s Presidents shows, Obama did nothing to heal America’s racial divisions, and a great deal to make them worse. Bob Woodward is claiming that Trump called Obama “overrated.” That’s a generous assessment.

This BLM Co-Founder and Pro-Communist China Group Are Partnering Up. Here’s Why.

Imagine that far-right demonstrators were laying siege to American cities for months, led by activists explicitly calling for an “ethno-state,” and that one of their groups was funded by an outfit involved with Vladimir Putin’s Russia. It would lead the news every day and there would be congressional hearings, right?

And rightly so. The threat of foreign interference in our domestic affairs is a serious matter, whether the suspects are rivals such as Russia or friendlies such as Mexico. This is especially the case if a foreign power were abetting unrest that aims to topple our constitutional order.

Well, the scenario described above is happening, though not with Russia or the far right, but with China and the leftist disturbances upending America and seeking to transform it.

Yet, there has not been a peep from the media or Congress about China’s support of the riots.


How are socialists deluding a whole generation? Learn more now >>


Go to the website for the Black Futures Lab, a venture of Black Lives Matter founder Alicia Garza, and click on the “Donate” button. It will ask you to send your money to an obscure organization, the Chinese Progressive Association, explaining that “Black Futures Lab is a fiscally sponsored project of the Chinese Progressive Association.”

History of Chinese Progressive Association

The CPA was founded in San Francisco in 1972 during the heady days of the Marxist-oriented Asian American Movement, and today it also has a very active chapter in Boston. From its start, it has been a promoter of the People’s Republic of China.

According to an authoritative 2009 Stanford University paper tracing its early days to the present, and which can be found on Marxist.org, “The CPA began as a Leftist, pro-People’s Republic of China organization, promoting awareness of mainland China’s revolutionary thought and workers’ rights, and dedicated to self-determination, community control, and ‘serving the people.’”

The CPA, continued the paper, “worked with other pro-PRC groups within the U.S. and San Francisco Bay Area … Support for the PRC was based on the inspiration the members drew from what they saw as a successful grassroots model that presented a viable alternative to Western capitalism.”

One of the ways it did this was by holding “film screenings that were open to the public, sometimes showing Chinese films as well to facilitate understanding of the country’s revolutionary ideas. … CPA also took the lead with groups such as the U.S.-China People’s Friendship Organization to celebrate China’s National Day on Oct. 1.”

To this day, the CPA continues to be a partner of the PRC in the United States. Three years ago, the Boston chapter teamed up with China’s Consulate General in New York to offer Chinese nationals the opportunity to renew their passports, getting praise from China’s official mouthpiece, China Daily.

Last year, the CPA sponsored the raising of the PRC’s flag for the first time ever over Boston’s City Hall to honor the takeover of China by the Chinese Communist Party, just as the Stanford paper says has been its practice from the beginning, but this time drawing protesters. The event was organized, again, with the Chinese Consulate. Consul General Sun Guoxiang was on hand to say that, “The common interests are far more important than differences between U.S. and China.”

CPA co-founder Lydia Lowe also spoke at the event, reminding her audience that “McCarthyism is behind us. The Cold War is behind us.” In an essay she authored with other people on the Marxist revolutionary site LeftRoots last year, Lowe sounded as though she wanted to start another Cold War, writing that she wanted Asians to play a role in creating a “revolutionary strategy” that would achieve a “fundamentally different society.”

And CPA drew praise from China’s mouthpiece China Daily just a few weeks ago, for taking part again in Black Lives Matter demonstrations in San Francisco.

Black Lives Matter Opposes Capitalism

It is clear, then, that CPA works with China’s communist government, pushes its agenda here in the United States, and is regularly praised by China’s state-owned mouthpieces. It is clear, too, from, this perspective, why the CPA would sponsor a new enterprise by Garza: They espouse the same desire for world communism.

Garza sits atop a worldwide revolutionary empire, starting with the Black Lives Matter Global Network she founded, which now has 15 chapters in the U.S. and several more all over Canada, Australia, and Europe. As Foreign Affairs wrote in its September/October issue, “Today, BLM has a global network of dozens of chapters. This number will likely grow exponentially in the coming years.”

Learn the truth about Black Lives Matter:

Garza is also behind the Movement for Black Lives, with its 50 domestic organizations. In July she said, “We helped to also pull together an ecosystem that was much broader than the organization that we founded, and that ecosystem is called the Movement for Black Lives and it is taking the world by storm.”

Movement for Black Lives is unabashedly anti-capitalist, saying on its website, “We are anti-capitalist. We believe and understand that Black people will never achieve liberation under the current global racialized capitalist system.”

So is Garza, and she means to use her international platform to end world capitalism. In 2015, she told an important gathering of global Marxists, “It’s not possible for a world to emerge where black lives matter if it’s under capitalism, and it’s not possible to abolish capitalism without a struggle against national oppression.”

There, she portrayed BLM as an offshoot of the Black Liberation Movement, the Marxist pan-Africanist Movement. “BLM, BLM,” she said coyly.

Last year, Garza told a roomful of Maine progressives, “We’re talking about changing how we’ve organized this country, so that we actually can achieve the justice that we are fighting for. I believe we all have work to do to keep dismantling the organizing principle of this society, which creates inequities for everyone.”

The Role of Black Futures Lab

Two years ago, Garza created the Black Futures Lab, the organization that the Chinese Progressive Association funds, as yet another asset in the vast Garza empire. By the looks of it, it acts as a sort of a lobbying arm of this empire.

As Colorlines put it when it was launched on Sept. 26, 2018, Black Futures Lab “seeks to engage advocacy organizations and legislators to advance local-, state- and federal-level policies that make Black communities stronger. It will also craft strategies that harness Black political power to bring those policies to fruition.”

“Today, we are launching the Black Futures Lab as a way to mobilize around our needs, hopes, and dreams,” Garza told Colorlines in an emailed statement. “For too long, people have spoken for us and perpetuated false representations of the issues that drive our votes.”

This legislative clout adds to the organizing muscle that the Black Lives Matters Global Network and the Movement for Black Lives organizations already bring.

As I wrote at City Journal last month, the BLM organizations have been the nerve center of this year’s protests: “They have been laying the groundwork for years, carefully cultivating a network of groups that could organize protests when the moment came and amplify the message through social media.”

Communist China has put its vast propaganda apparatus to work in support of the mayhem that has wreaked havoc in American cities this year. China is, after all, a rival of the United States, and would see weakening of U.S. society and the country in general as advantageous.

The involvement of an outfit as closely associated with the Chinese government in the funding of one of Garza’s ventures is something else entirely, however.

Maybe journalists and congressmen have not seen it till now (I myself hadn’t until Jenny Nguyen, a graduate of The Heritage Foundation’s Young Leaders Program, alerted me to it).

But now they have.

A Note for our Readers:

Democratic Socialists say, “America should be more like socialist countries such as Sweden and Denmark.” And millions of young people believe them…

For years, “Democratic Socialists” have been growing a crop of followers that include students and young professionals. America’s future will be in their hands.

How are socialists deluding a whole generation? One of their most effective arguments is that “democratic socialism” is working in Scandinavian countries like Sweden and Norway. They claim these countries are “proof” that socialism will work for America. But they’re wrong. And it’s easy to explain why.

Our friends at The Heritage Foundation just published a new guide that provides three irrefutable facts that debunks these myths. For a limited time, they’re offering it to readers of The Daily Signal for free.

WATCH: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris refers to a “Harris-Biden Administration”

And so did she:

Joe Biden And Kamala Harris Make Freudian Slips, Accidentally Referring To A ‘Harris Administration’

Vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris spoke of a “Harris administration,” while discussing economic plans during a virtual roundtable Saturday.

By Ecita Duffy, the Federalist, September 15, 2020:

“A Harris administration, together with Joe Biden as the president of the United States,” she said before correcting what many are calling a “Freudian slip.”

With worries about Biden’s mental agility, many people wonder if a potential Biden administration would really be Biden’s. The Federalist Staff Writer, Tristan Justice, theorized that Biden will be “a vehicle for the left’s cultural revolution,” if he becomes president.

Angela Davis, a prominent communist, anti-Semite and former Black Panther, stated Biden could be “effectively pressured,” into promoting the agenda of the radical left in pursuit of a complete societal transformation overthrowing existing norms into a new world order.

As Justice notes, “Biden has already showcased a willingness to conform to the woke revolution,” through his agenda which is  “the most radical progressive platform of any modern Democratic candidate in recent history.”

On par with Biden’s radical agenda, Harris has proven to be a solid member of the far left. As Federalist Managing Editor Joshua Lawson writes, Harris is far from a moderate, as the corporate media likes to portray her. Harris also has the most progressive voting record in the Senate.

“Her positions form an agenda nearly entirely in lock-step with the radical leftist ideology that has taken over the Democratic Party,” Lawson writes.

Karl Marx, The Satanic Prophet of Darkness

“For more than 40 years, (more like 100) confessing Christians have become fearfully silent regarding the advancement of secularism and evil in our society. Unless Christians push back on these issues today, America will soon become totally immersed in socialism, and our grandchildren will grow up in communism. Unless Christians speak up in their churches today, the confessing Church will soon be silenced, not by decree, but by default.” – Pastor Wayne Edward – Silent No More

“Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity… In the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.” –  Antonio Gramsci (1915) Italian Marxist philosopher

“Communism has decided against God, against Christ, against the Bible, and against all religion.” Billy Graham

“The Communist vision is the vision of man without God.” –  Whittaker Chambers


George Orwell warned that whoever controls the past, the history of the country, controls the future.  With the anarchist destruction and obliteration of so many historic statues and monuments, Orwell’s statement rings true.

The mainstreaming of Marxism in US colleges and universities 30 years ago is now showing devastating results to the Republic.  Karl Marx is the satanic prophet of darkness for the founders of Black Lives Matter (BLM), Antifa and every other communist organization.

BLM has now led to a record number of mass shootings.  Mass shootings are inescapably tied to the BLM violence that crippled police, wrecked public safety, and led socialist democrats to call for an end to cops.

“The BLM riots aren’t just a struggle session or cancel culture. They’re doing a lot more than terrorizing diners or burning down stores. The BLM riots and movement are killing people. Democrats had spent years falsely claiming that guns, rather than criminals, kill people. Now they’ve moved on to blaming gun violence on social ills that will be remedied by defunding police and shifting even more money into the same broken and corrupt welfare state.”  See Daniel Greenfield’s article, Black Lives Matter Led to Record Number of Mass Shootings.

The radical anarchists who are burning, looting and murdering are embracing Marxist theoretician and Italian communist, Antonio Gramsci who called for the very elimination of Judeo-Christian societal norms and morals in order to institute socialism, i.e. Marxist communism.

Domestic terrorists have now started fires in Washington, Oregon and California with losses of 3.1 million acres burned in California, 954,000 acres lost in Oregon and 500,00 in Washington state.  Thirty-five people are dead, and many more are missing. This is satanic evil perpetrated by those who hate God.

Synagogues/Churches Defiled

In democrat-controlled cities, today’s subversives are not only destroying and defacing businesses, but they’re attacking synagogues, churches and religious statues, but mosques have not been targeted.  Hamas-linked CAIR and other subversive groups have been issuing pious statements of support for the “demonstrators,” without a word of condemnation for the violent riots.

Today’s wokeness, cancel culture, and social justice emanates directly from the very same source, God’s greatest foe, the divider, the liar, and the prince of darkness, is championed and embraced by today’s communists in BLM, Antifa, Islam and dozens of small communist groups.  BLM founder Alicia Garza embraces Islamist Linda Sarsour known for leading the disgusting 2017 Women’s March, and being openly hostile to Jews, and affiliating with virulent anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan.

Catholic parishes in Florida, Massachusetts and California are under attack while statues of the Blessed Mother are being vandalized in New York.

In California, the 249 year-old San Gabriel Mission was firebombed, after weeks of BLM and Antifa threats. Thankfully, the historic paintings, the Stations of the Cross, and other artifacts had been removed from the sanctuary as part of the renovations being done to prepare for the mission’s 250th anniversary next year.

The Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Denver, a 108-year-old building, was at the center of some of the local riots, including the hit-and-run of three Denver police officers, and suffered permanent damage. The walls were also vandalized with graffiti reading, “Pedophiles” and “God is dead.”  A Connecticut Catholic Church was vandalized with satanic symbols and sacred statues were desecrated in Florida and Colorado.  Throughout the country, assaults on religious statues are prevalent.

Church buildings in California, Minnesota, New York, Kentucky, Texas, and Colorado were attacked.  The assault on St. John’s Episcopal Church by radicals and racists was the ugliest moment of the riots in Washington D.C. Not only was the famous 204-year-old church, which every president since James Madison has attended, sprayed with graffiti, but some of the thugs even tried to burn it down by starting a fire in its basement.

In Troy, New York, BLM stormed a church service, took over their sanctuary, insulted parishioners and chanted “hail satan.”

In Los Angeles, Congregation Beth Israel’s walls were defaced with graffiti reading, “F___ Israel” and “Free Palestine.”  Some of the windows of the facility were broken and the gates were badly damaged.

Protesters also vandalized and damaged Congregation Beth Ahabah, a more than 200-year-old Reform congregation in Richmond, Virginia.

Synagogues in Los Angeles’ suffered the largest burst of vandalism and destruction.  Some of the ugliest graffiti was reserved for the Baba Sale synagogue of Moroccan Jewish refugees named after the rabbi who had helped lead Moroccan Jews out of the Muslim country and to Israel.  See Daniel Greenfield’s revealing article, “God is Dead: Leftist Rioters Vandalize Churches and Synagogues.”

In the 1870s and 1880s, anarchism originally meant a radical protest movement of impoverished artisans or downtrodden rural laborer’s, while Marxist Communism had its practice come to stand for the birth certificate of modern social democracy.  This is what we’re seeing in the streets of America today, where there are no consequences for insurrection and lawlessness.  Antifa communists even burned a Bible and the American flag in front of Portland’s federal courthouse.

Both fascists and communists hate the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the Christian Messiah, Jesus Christ.

The Marxist Dethroning of God

Marx was recruited by the Communist League (small group of communists in Europe) to summarize their beliefs. Marx a Jew himself, hated Jews as well as all religions that worshipped God.  Castro and Ernesto “Che” Guevara in Cuba killed more Cubans (per capita) who didn’t agree with their politics than Hitler and Stalin combined – yet the young people of today think Guevara is a cool dude. Guevara taught that “man has to muster up as much hate as he can to smash the skulls of the imperialist Americans.”  Guevara’s picture was featured in a 2014 Blue Bloods program where it hung on a classroom wall so children would believe the murdering commie was some kind of hero.

Marx said the very purpose of communism was to, “Destroy capitalism and dethrone God.”  Marx knew that the Judeo-Christian beliefs and teachings which American capitalism was built on was a bulwark against his godless Utopian Society. Marx also taught that socialism is a temporary transition to communism. “Thus, Heaven I’ve forfeited, I know it full well,” Marx wrote in a poem in 1837, a decade before his Manifesto.  “My soul, once true to God, is chosen for Hell.” That certainly seemed to be the perverse destiny for Marx’s ideology, which consigned to death over 100 million souls in the twentieth century alone.

In 1849, Marx wrote, “When our turn comes, we shall make no excuses for the terror. There is only one way in which the murderous death agonies of the old society and the bloody birth throes of the new society can be shortened, simplified and concentrated, and that way is revolutionary terror.”

Communist regimes put Marx’s principles into practice, starting with the first Marxist state. Between 1917 and 1921, the Soviet Union destroyed nearly 600 Russian Orthodox monasteries and convents. The leaders of the first communist country oversaw the killing of at least 300 Orthodox clergy. This bloodbath eventually became Soviet policy. The Eighth Party Congress decreed in 1920 that “the Party aims at the complete destruction of links between the exploiting classes and religious propaganda, while assisting the actual liberation of the working masses from religious prejudices.”

In his recent article, Alex Newman stated, “There is now proof that there are very dark forces behind BLM, and it’s not just the blatant Marxism of its founders and leaders. The darkness literally includes summoning dead ancestral spirits and allowing them to work through BLM leaders. Sound crazy? BLM bosses admit it.”

BLM co-founder Patrice Cullors, who boasted in a TV interview of being a “trained Marxist,” revealed that she is also consulting spiritual entities and allowing them to “work through” her.  Those entities are demons.

Watch Alex’s short video on occultism in BLM.

Communist Revolution

Consider the mob riots in Europe in 1848; they didn’t simply happen, they were planned to burst into full bloom, spontaneously and simultaneously in several countries.  Riots have to be incited.  Moreover, revolution spanning the breadth of an entire continent is highly unlikely without thorough planning, exact timing, skillful execution, and close coordination.  So, it’s not by sheer coincidence that certain revolutionary figures had been flitting from one European hot spot to another, just like its not likely that cities in America are spontaneously erupting in violence and destruction.  It is all planned and purposefully orchestrated and executed by the communists and their wealthy benefactors who desire the overthrow of America.

While most understand Marxism, what’s not so well known is the philosophy of Leftist thinking. It was given birth to in 18th century France, cloaked beneath the cover of Enlightenment.  It was sheltered under seemingly reputable names like Rene Descartes, Sir Issac Newton, Sir Francis Bacon, and John Locke and gave birth to liberalism. Much like Marxism and Communism, it purported to use philosophy to combat poverty and unfairness, but its core was new age and occultic.

Leftist thinking powers came from French writer, historian and philosopher, Voltaire.  His argument against religion was “reason over superstition.”  Another philosopher who aided Voltaire was Denis Diderot who provided a sneak peek into the Left’s use of violence with a quote that is commonly attributed to him, “Men will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.”

Gary Gindler’s recent article, Ernst Röhm, Maximilian Robespierre, and Democrat Party Stormtroopers is telling.  America’s Leftist democrat mobsters imitate the Nazi Brownshirts in many ways, although in some ways they differ.  Today’s leftists decided to emulate the Black shirts of the Italian socialist Mussolini (in clothing choice), the Brownshirts of the German National Socialists (in their methods of terror), and the Maoist Hongweibing (in ideological stubbornness). Black shirts, Brownshirts, and Hongweibing are ancient practices of global leftist movements.  In other words, in 2020, neither leftist philosophy nor the current generation of leftists in America could come up with anything new.

Calls for the dissolution of the police or defunding of police are attempts by democrats to transform the police from a law enforcement agency into a rioters’ protection agency.  But wait…the end result with the National Socialists was that the SS Stormtroopers eradicated their “comrade” Brownshirts in the “Night of the Long Knives.”  It’s likely that the “Black shirts” of today will be eliminated by their wealthy masters.

Recall the comments and emails regarding guillotines.  The same fate may await the American democrat goons after an internal power struggle.  Remember Maximilian Robespierre, one of the founders of the leftist ideological terror, fell under the guillotine at the hands of his fellow revolutionaries.

If the SA militants in Germany were replaced by the SS militants in 1934, then someone else will obviously replace the white Antifa and black and white BLM stormtroopers for there are enough left-wing terrorist organizations in America.  Perhaps the go-ahead for the internal crackdown against Antifa and BLM will be given immediately after Biden’s loss on November 3 this year.

Leftist Politicians Allow Insurrection

Democrat politicians are allowing the communist violence to continue because their beliefs mirror the anarchists.  Seattle actually closed a park for a religious rally, but allowed anti-cop protests.

Social media and mainstream media are democrat owned.  Their allegiance is with the communist revolutionary anarchists.  Patriot Prayer promotes belief in God, but Facebook banned Patriot Prayer, and its founder Joey Gibson six days after one of their members was executed by Antifa.  The perpetrator later lost his own life.  This censorship is, in itself, evil.  Patriot Prayer is a pro-Trump group that often counter protests against far-left extremism, but FB didn’t deem them worthy of posting on their website.

The first sentence in the first amendment of our unalienable Bill of Rights states, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”  Churches are shut down, limited to congregants, masks required, and a California judge has disallowed indoor church gatherings.  This is totally unconstitutional, but no one seems to be up in arms at the loss of our unalienable rights.

John MacArthur’s Grace Community Church is being denied their first amendment rights and are having their property seized for disobeying the totalitarian edict by Governor Newsom not to assemble or sing.

Another California church is pleading for relief after fines reach over $60,000.  The church was fined $5,000 for holding a morning service and $5,000 for an evening service during which congregants sang.

In Chicago, Mayor Lightfoot threatened to bulldoze two churches if they fail to obey the arbitrary edicts issued by the city concerning Covid restrictions. They said the buildings would be demolished.

Some of God’s people will not be denied.  In late July, 12,000 Christians gathered on the steps of the California Capitol building in Sacramento to pray and worship together to inspire hope in the midst of the pandemic and to encourage the Church to be strong in the midst of government shutdowns.

What we’re seeing in America today with these violent mob forces is much like the French Revolution of 1789. Their idea of freedom was one that was characterized by the pursuit of absolute power and secularism that included a mob-driven violent and forceful de-Christianization campaign. Eliminating God meant an ever-changing description of right and wrong, which is evident today in America’s decaying culture and society.

Conclusion

Our universities are teaching the Marxist hatred of God. Tim Snediker, a doctoral student in religious studies at the public university in California, tweeted that he would “assassinate Jesus of Nazareth” if he had a time machine.

Everything that is happening in the streets of America right now is 100 percent planned and executed by the Democrat Party and their accomplices in the mainstream media.  They have embraced godless communism and have become America’s greatest enemy.

Faith, hope, charity and forbearance are dangerous ideas for a system that relies on fear and envy. And what is dangerous must be destroyed. To create the communist heaven on earth, the faithful must abandon their beliefs or endure a living hell.

EUREKA! Federal Judge Rules Pennsylvania Governor’s Coronavirus Restrictions Unconstitutional

If it goes to the Supremes, we cannot count on that spineless, pathetic loser Roberts.

Federal judge rules Pennsylvania governor’s coronavirus restrictions unconstitutional

By Anthony Leonardi | The Washington Examiner, | September 14, 2020:

A federal judge ruled that Gov. Tom Wolf’s business closures and gathering limits to decrease coronavirus transmission were unconstitutional.

“Even in an emergency, the authority of government is not unfettered,” District Court Judge William Stickman wrote in a decision Monday. “The liberties protected by the Constitution are not fair-weather — freedoms in place when times are good but able to be cast aside in times of trouble.”

Stickman, a Trump appointee in the Western District of Pennsylvania, sided with the individual counties that brought the suit, ruling that parts of Wolf’s coronavirus restrictions violated both the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the Constitution.

Pennsylvania argued the restrictions, which included an indoor social gathering limit of 25 people, were a legitimate exercise of the state’s police powers during a public health emergency. However, Stickman concluded the language of the July 15 order describing the duration of restrictions, which reads “until further notice,” was too broad and that the congregate limits “violate the right of assembly enshrined in the First Amendment.”
‘We really need to get this to the Supreme Court’: Religious liberty advocates dig in for long coronavirus war

Stickman also took aim at the components of the state’s order that closed the operations of businesses, determining they violated both the Fourteenth Amendment’s due process clause, which prevents the government from depriving life, liberty, or property without due process, and the equal protection clause, which requires states to govern with impartial judgment.

Under Wolf’s three-phase reopening plan, only “life-sustaining” businesses were permitted to reopen, such as grocery stores, while schools were ordered closed. Stickman sided with plaintiffs who said that the decision to differentiate between “life-sustaining” and “non-life-sustaining” was an “arbitrary, ad hoc process.”

Small businesses ordered to shut down, the plaintiffs argued, often sell the same products or services as big-box retailers. Stickman said it is “paradoxical” that an order meant to keep people apart allowed the largest retailers with the highest occupancy limits, such as Home Depot and Walmart, to remain open.

“The Court recognizes that Defendants were facing a pressing situation to formulate a plan to address the nascent COVID-19 pandemic… But in making that choice, they were not merely coming up with a draft of some theoretical white paper, but rather, determining who could work and who could not,” Stickman said.

Stickman added that the “solution to a national crisis can never be permitted to supersede the commitment to individual liberty.”

The case was filed by Butler, Greene, Washington, and Fayette counties as well as individual businesses and Republican lawmakers. Mike Kelly, a Republican congressman, was also a plaintiff in the case.

Wolf has lifted the statewide stay-at-home order and allowed some businesses in certain counties with low transmission rates to reopen but has kept other orders in place. Last week, Wolf announced that restaurants will be permitted to reopen on Sept. 21 at 50% capacity as long as staff and guests follow social distancing procedures and mask-wearing.

In reaction to Stickman’s ruling, Thomas King, the attorney for those challenging the restrictions, called the decision a “complete and total victory” for counties, businesses, and others affected by the order.

“You can’t order the entire population of Pennsylvania to stay at home,” King said.

Pennsylvania Speaker of the House Bryan Cutler and House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff, both Republicans, also praised the ruling, saying that the opinion “offers some form of hope that a return to normalcy might be on the horizon,” according to the Morning Call.

The state Department of Health on Monday announced 1,258 new positive cases, bringing the statewide total to 145,063 reported cases.

Wildfires Will Get Worse Under Decades-Old Liberal Policies, Veteran Forester Says

Nearly 30 years ago, President Bill Clinton made a significant change to federal land management that created the conditions necessary for massive wildfires to consume portions of the West Coast, according to a fire expert who predicted the problem years ago.

Shortly before leaving office in 2001, Clinton limited the ability of the United States Forest Service to thin out a dense thicket of foliage and downed trees on federal land to bring the West into a pristine state, Bob Zybach, an experienced forester with a Ph.D. in environmental science, told The Daily Caller News Foundation. The former president’s decision created a ticking time bomb, Zybach argues.

“If you don’t start managing these forests, then they are going to start burning up. Thirty years later, they are still ignoring it,” said Zybach, who spent more than 20 years as a reforestation contractor.

He was referring to warnings he made years ago, telling officials that warding off prescribed burns in Oregon and California creates kindling that fuels fires.

Such rules make it more difficult to deploy prescribed burns, which are controlled burns designed to cull all of the underbrush in forests to lessen the chance of massive fires, Zybach noted.

Years of keeping these areas in their natural state result in dead trees and dried organic material settling on the forest floor, which become like matchsticks soaked in jet fuel during dry seasons, he said.

Zybach’s comments come as wildfires continue churning through parts of California, Oregon, and Washington, media reports show.

Fires have killed 26 in West Coast states since August, including 19 in California, and have culminated in more than 500,000 evacuating Oregon, a number representing roughly 10% of the state’s overall population.

Roughly 100 massive fires are blazing Saturday in the West, including 12 in Idaho and nine in Montana, the National Interagency Fire Center said Saturday. All told, the wildfires have churned through more than 4.5 million acres in 12 states.

Shortly before leaving office, Clinton introduced the Roadless Rule that restricted the use of existing roads and construction of new roads on 49 million acres of National Forest, making it difficult for officials to scan the land for the kind of kindling that fuels massive conflagrations.

The move was part of the Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP), a resolution adopted by Clinton in 1994 to protect forests from being over-logged.

Ten years before Clinton’s rule, the Fish and Wildlife Service placed the northern spotted owl on the Endangered Species Act, forcing the Forest Service to adopt a new policy that resulted in a greater reduction in timber harvests. The amount of timber removed from federal lands plummeted, according to data accumulated in 2015 by the Reason Foundation.

An average of 10 million feet of timber was removed each year from Forest Service land between 1960 and 1990, the data show. Those numbers dropped between 1991 and 2000 and continued dropping—an average of only 2.1 billion feet of timber was removed from the land between 2000 and 2013, according to the data. That’s an 80% decline.

“They’ve gone and left hundreds of thousands of acres of burnt timber, a fire bomb waiting to happen, standing in place because the black back woodpecker prefers that habitat,” Zybach said. “It’s great for lawyers, but it’s bad for people who breathe air or work in the woods.”

“The prescribed burns are an ancient form of management for keeping the fuels down so these events don’t happen,” Zybach added, referring to Native American Indians who used controlled burns to ward away pests and prevent wildfires from licking their homes.

The Clinton administration’s plan to turn forests in the West into pristine land free of human interference risked fueling “wildfires reminiscent of the Tillamook burn, the 1910 fires, and the Yellowstone fire,” Zybach, who is based in Oregon, told Evergreen magazine in 1994, when the NWFP came into effect.

Western Oregon had one major fire above 10,000 acres between 1952 and 1987, reports show. The Silver Complex Fire of 1987 snapped that streak after torching more than 100,000 acres in the Kalmiopsis Wilderness area, killing rare plants and trees the federal government sought to protect from human activities.

Fire Experts Agree: Prescribed Burns Are Critical 

Overzealous fire suppression across California are helping to build up wildland fuels, which contribute to wildfires, according to Tim Ingalsbee, a fire ecologist who began a career in the 1980s as a wildland firefighter. The solution is “to get good fire on the ground and whittle down some of that fuel load,” he told ProPublica in August.

“It’s just … well … it’s horrible. Horrible to see this happening when the science is so clear and has been clear for years. I suffer from Cassandra syndrome,” Ingalsbee said, referring to the Cassandra Syndrome, a Greek metaphor people use when they believe their valid warnings are not heeded.

“Every year I warn people: Disaster’s coming. We got to change. And no one listens. And then it happens.”

Other experts have made similar arguments in the past.

Overgrown grasslands, forests, and woodlands contributed to California wildfires in 2017, Sasha Berleman, a fire ecologist, told High Country News that year. “I’m more certain than ever that there’s a lot we can do between now and the next time this happens to make it so that the negative consequences to people are nowhere near as dramatic,” she said.

The devastating fires that ran through California’s wine country in October of 2017 killed 42 people and destroyed nearly 7,000 buildings, High Country News noted.

The solution might be easier said than done. Nearly 20 million acres in California, or an area about the size of Maine, will need to experience controlled burns to limit catastrophic wildfires, a January study from Nature Sustainability found.

Blaming Climate Change

Former President Barack Obama suggested in a tweet Thursday that California’s wildfires are a result of climate change.

“The fires across the West Coast are just the latest examples of the very real ways our changing climate is changing our communities,” Obama wrote in a tweet that included pictures showing how soot and ash from the wildfires are turning San Francisco’s sky bright orange.

Obama isn’t the only prominent Democrat tying the fires to global warming.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat from New York, published a tweet Saturday that read: “The proof of the urgency of the climate crisis is literally in the air around us.” Schumer included a link to a Sept. 10 article from CBS blaming climate change for the fires.

Zybach is not convinced. “The lack of active land management is almost 100% the cause,” he told The Daily Caller News Foundation, noting that climate change has almost nothing to do with fire kindling gathering across the forest floors. Other researchers share his skepticism.

“Global warming may contribute slightly, but the key factors are mismanaged forests, years of fire suppression, increased population, people living where they should not, invasive flammable species, and the fact that California has always had fire,” University of Washington climate scientist Cliff Mass told The Daily Caller News Foundation in 2018.

Mass’ critique came as the Mendocino Complex Fire was spreading across California on its way to becoming the largest wildfire in the state, engulfing more than 283,000 acres.

VIDEO: ‘No Police, No Peace’ Billboards to Reach 4 Million in New York, Atlanta, Dallas

Six billboards declaring “No Police, No Peace” have gone up, two each in New York City, Dallas, and Atlanta, Heritage Action for America announced Monday.

The move comes amid an increase in both violence in the streets and angry anti-police rhetoric.

Two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies, ages 24 and 31, were shot and seriously wounded Saturday night as they sat in their patrol car. And in St. Louis, a 35-year-old police officer was wounded in the shoulder during a traffic stop, becoming the ninth officer to be shot since June 1.

“Americans want safety, security, and a clear vision for how to quell the violence. I am excited to announce the launch of these billboards today, because you cannot have peace without the police,” Jessica Anderson, executive director of Heritage Action for America, the grassroots partner organization of The Heritage Foundation, said in a written statement.


How are socialists deluding a whole generation? Learn more now >>


Together, the billboards in the three cities are expected to reach a weekly audience of about 4 million. They will be displayed for two weeks.

In New York City, which eliminated the police department’s violent crime unit, the billboards are displayed in Times Square at 7th Avenue and 48th Street and at Broadway and 44th Street.

In Atlanta, one billboard stands across from CNN headquarters at Centennial Olympic Park Drive and Marietta Street. The other is at Peachtree Road East and Paces Ferry Road.

In Dallas, the billboards are downtown at Main Street, near Interstate 45, and on Cedar Springs Road.

“These cities are facing rising violence, deep cuts to public safety, and the resignation of their top police officers,” Anderson said. “This is a time for all citizens and leaders to come together to support the important work and sacrifices of our law enforcement officers and push back against the left’s campaign to defund the police.”

Several cities throughout the United States have supported defunding police departments, while some Democratic members of Congress called for similar actions. Sen. Edward Markey, D-Mass., called Monday for police to be disarmed. “Ban tear gas and rubber bullets,” he tweeted.

The billboards urge citizens to sign Heritage Action’s Police Pledge, which already has been signed by nearly 100,000.

Among the signers are former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, and nearly 100 members of Congress, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas; Josh Hawley, R-Mo.; Rick Scott, R-Fla.; and Tom Cotton, R-Ark.

The pledge calls on Americans to “stand with America’s police and pledge to oppose any bill, resolution, or movement to ‘Defund the Police.’”

This comes as homicides in New York City spiked by almost 50% in August amid budget cutbacks, compared with the same month in 2019. The homicide rate in Atlanta is up nearly 150% since the protests following the May 25 killing of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis. Dallas is on the way to hitting its highest homicide rate in more than a decade.

“Now is the time for our elected officials at all levels of government to take a stand for peace and security over anarchy and chaos,” Anderson said, adding:

Supporting police is not partisan. It’s American.

Lawmakers should push back against violent rhetoric and dangerous policies that would undermine our communities.

Our law enforcement supports us every day, and it’s time we support them back.

VIDEO: YouTube’s Damani Felder Criticizes Cardi B, Sen. Kamala Harris

Damani Felder, the founder of YouTube’s ‘The Right Brothers,’ spoke with the Daily Caller’s Samantha Renck about Democrat California Sen. Kamala Harris meeting with Jacob Blake, Cardi B and Candace Owens and more.

Harris recently told Jacob Blake, a shooting victim in a police-related incident in Kenosha, Wisconson, who is also accused of sexual assault, that she is “proud of him,” according to the family’s attorney. Nearly two weeks earlier, Harris said during the Democratic National Convention that she “[has] fought for children and survivors of sexual assault” and she “[knows] a predator when [she sees] one.”

“Kamala’s comments are really indicative of how out of touch and disingenuous the Democratic Party has become,” Felder said, “because at this point they’ve realized they have to say certain things. There is no more room for individualism or diversity of thought or diversity of opinion on the lefthand side of the aisle.”

Felder continued, “for me to hear her say that it didn’t surprise me because I now know what the left is —they showed their true colors at this point.”

He also discussed the ongoing civil unrest throughout the country, Cardi B and Candace Owens and more.

FORMER CHIEF OF POLICE MAURICE RICHARDS: In A Time Of Violence, Americans Must Take A Stand Against Lawlessness

Periods of civil disorder, like elections, are a time for choosing sides. Democrats have chosen their side — against police, against safety and against the rule of law. On November 3, the American people will choose whether to join them.

For more than three months we have witnessed riots, lawlessness and political violence instigated by antifa and Black Lives Matter (BLM) radicals — cities burned, stores looted, police officers and citizens attacked and even killed. Vicious mobs felt emboldened to “occupy” our streets, block traffic and invade our neighborhoods.

While Democrat mayors, governors and prosecutors refused to stop the violence, President Trump refused to surrender to the mob, standing up for our police and for the safety and security of American families.

Their rhetoric now seeks to rewrite history, but when the moment came to pick sides, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the Democrats cast their lots with the mob, not the law-abiding citizens being terrorized in their homes. Their silence — and in some cases outright support — allowed our cities to descend into chaos. The Democrats denied the violence and tried to convince us that the arson, looting and beatings were actually just “peaceful protests.”

But we all saw the truth with our own eyes.

In Portland, the mob dragged a man from his truck, then beat, stomped, savagely kicked him in the head before leaving him for dead in the street. In New York City, violent radicals attacked three NYPD supervisors, opening a huge gash in one officer’s head. One of the attackers was arrested, only to be immediately set free to continue rioting under New York’s radical “bail reform” law — the same policy of eliminating cash bail that Kamala Harris hopes to implement nationwide. In Kenosha, Wisconsin, a 71-year-old man defending his business was viciously beaten by a group of thugs, suffering a broken jaw at the hands of the “peaceful protestors” who then stepped over him to loot and burn his store.

This mob violence spread and intensified because Democrat mayors prevented the police from confronting it, and even gave the rioters moral sanction to run wild.

When a Black Lives Matter mob in Washington, D.C. threatened innocent bystanders who were peacefully dining outdoors, demanding the diners shout their slogan, they went unchallenged by police. Radicals took note that such behavior would be tolerated, and now the same type of intimidation has spread to Rochester and Pittsburgh.

Another mob set upon peaceful citizens departing the Republican National Convention. Among the victims were U.S. Senator Rand Paul and his wife. Surrounded and in fear for their lives, the couple only escaped the possibility of serious injury or death thanks to the extraordinary action of four brave police officers, who kept the antagonists at bay until Sen. Paul and the others made it to safety. Biden and the Democrats refused to denounce the mob — after all, the violent rioters are their base, and they hoped to ride that kind of “enthusiasm” into the White House.

No Democrat official has acted more shamefully than Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler. For 104 days and counting, he has allowed mobs to riot, destroy public and private property, and even attempt to burn police officers alive. Wheeler has openly supported the violence, literally standing with the mob while law enforcement officers were being attacked. Even when rioters threatened a federal courthouse, Wheeler refused President Trump’s offers of assistance while his prosecutors continued to let those responsible out of jail without posting a cent of bail. His tolerance for violence reached its inevitable result on August 29 with the assassination of a Trump supporter.

This dramatic politically-motivated violence grabs headlines, but it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Toleration of violence and disorder by those tasked with maintaining public safety and order only breeds more violence. Predictably, violent crime is going through the roof in Portland, Seattle, Chicago, New York, Baltimore and other Democrat-run cities.

New York City has seen a 166 percent increase in shootings and a 34 percent rise in murders from August 2020 compared to the same period last year. In Chicago, shootings have increased by 52 percent and murders by 49 percent, with 2,152 people shot and 503 murdered already this year. During July and August alone, 1,087 were shot and 168 killed in the Windy City.

As demonstrated in Chicago and Minneapolis, Democrat mayors have legitimized the activists’ belief that looting is an acceptable response to any perceived injustice involving the police. Inevitably, Black Lives Matter interpreted that as permission to go even further. “No justice, no peace” has now evolved into a belief that looting is justified as a form of reparations for slavery.

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are the official, acknowledged leaders of their party. They could — and should — have exercised real leadership and condemned these radicals. But at the Democratic National Convention, neither Biden nor Harris, nor any other Democrat uttered a word condemning the riots and mob violence that had already been going on for months by that point. Instead, they used the anti-American lie of “systemic racism” as a central theme of the convention, making common cause with activists who believe America is evil, illegitimate, and inherently racist.

They approved a Democratic Party platform that enshrines the false and dangerous myth that police are “systemically racist,” slandering the brave men and women of American law enforcement and giving their imprimatur to radical rhetoric likening federal agents to the Ku Klux Klan and police officers to Nazi “stormtroopers.”

The violence we are seeing now is a direct result of the false narrative about systemic police racism. Democrats may just be trying to win an election, but in the process they have dealt a significant blow to the legitimacy of the police in the eyes of many citizens, and law-abiding Americans are suffering mightily for it.

American civilization rests upon the will of the people, not the fury of the mob. If we lose the rule of law, we lose our country. Democrats have shown how they run cities — in the process making it clear that our families will not be safe if they are allowed to run our country. They have chosen their side, but it’s not too late for us to choose President Trump’s — and our own.

Recent Energy and Environmental News

Since early voting has started in some states, and since this Presidential election is of extraordinary importance, this is a special Newsletter on just that one topic.

For over a decade now, together we have made significant impacts with energy, environmental and educational matters. Thank you for being a loyal contributor to this well-educated, open-minded community of 10,000+ members.

The upcoming US federal election is of colossal importance to our future, our financial welfare, our national security, and our freedoms.  Considering the disappointing state of the once proud field of journalism, it has become difficult to make informed election decisions based on issues rather than personalities.

As always, my aim is to separate the wheat from the chaff: i.e. to provide readers a better understanding of the choices than they would get from mainstream media.

Put a different way, here are Five Ways the Election Will Determine the New Normal. This is another point of comparison: Trump vs. Democrats on Higher Education.

Since there has been very little media reporting about what the President has actually done regarding policy, etc., carefully read through this detailed list.

A good question is: can a committed Christian support President Trump?

Please watch this: Nothing is More Important Than God. Read this insightful correspondence: Archbishop Viganò’s powerful letter to President Trump Lastly here is a detailed, thoughtful answer, plus a letter to a Christian friend.

Regarding the COVID-19 matter, please seriously consider the following:

1 – Like any President would, Mr. Trump expected that the World Health Organization (WHO) would provide timely, helpful COVID-19 assistance. They not only did not do that, WHO was exposed as being politically driven. To his credit, he subsequently responded like no other President would have.

2 – Also like any President would, Mr. Trump relied on the advice of a recommended scientific person, Dr. Fauci. It later became clear that Dr. Fauci was part of the problem, and that (regrettably) he did not provide the President (or the country) with optimum advice (e.g. see this fine letter).

3 – Unlike any other President would have, Mr. Trump shared inside information he was receiving about likely beneficial therapeutics (esp HCQ) for citizens inflicted with COVID-19. Instead of this being treated as a helpful consideration, the press continually attacked him. The scientific studies to date (ignored by the media) have shown that his suggestion was sound.

4 – To see what Democrat leaders would have done if they were in charge, simply look at large states with Democrat governors — e.g. New York and California. They have been pandemic disasters (e.g. see here).

The bottom line is that the President has done a very reasonable job in dealing with a unique and unprecedented global challenge, where even top experts disagree (to this day!) about what the best courses of action are.


CLICK HERE FOR AN INFOGRAPHIC ON WHERE TRUMP AND BIDEN STAND ON KEY ISSUES –  PLEASE SHARE


Please consider: The Real Reason They Want You To Hate Donald Trump.

Finally: citizens need to see the Big Picture of what is going on. China (and Russia) are not our friends. They are working aggressively to take America down. The President has stood up to them like no other President in recent memory.

Turn off the fake news. Don’t listen to the dividers and the haters. Instead turn on to supporting God and America, pray for us, and vote responsibly!

P.S. — In addition to praying for our country, please pass this onto any open-minded associates you have.

Thank You and God Bless America!

Aftermath Of Riots: Dozens Of Fires Started, Hundreds Of Buildings Burned Down, Thousands Of Trump Voters Created

KENOSHA, WI—The aftermath of the riots are grim: dozens of fires were started, hundreds of buildings were burned down, and thousands of Trump voters were created over the past several days alone.

From out-of-control riots in Seattle and Wisconson to violence on the streets in Portland (or, as they call it, Wednesday), tons of property is being damaged, many are being harmed or killed, and, worst of all, new Trump voters are being created every minute.

“This isn’t looking good,” said one CNN analyst. “I mean, the buildings burning down and all the fires and property damage and violence are happening, and that’s fine, but all the Trump voters this is creating — that’s a real tragedy. We must do something to counteract the devastation this will cause in November.”

A study found that every burned-down building causes millions of dollars in property damage and creates up to 50 new Trump voters. A burned-out cop car can create up to 12 Trump supporters, while screaming at people in front of restaurants for not doing your salute can create over 100 Trump voters.

“May God have mercy on us all,” whispered the analyst.

VIDEO: Twitter Bans ‘POTENTIALLY HARMFUL’ Speech on Christians Voting!

On Saturday August 29, 2020 Tom Trento, Director of The United West, spoke at the Space Coast Convention Center in Cocoa Beach, Florida, for the Reagan Club and Trump Support Center on the topic of why Christians MUST vote in November.

The Trento speech was lived-streamed on a variety of social media platforms but when the effort was made to post on The United West Twitter site, the posting was REJECTED.

WATCH TOM’S SPEECH:

HERE ARE THE FACTS:

  • Either Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will be elected or President Donald Trump and Mike Pence will be re-elected.
  • If Biden wins, the Marxists will hit the streets in jubilation and their methodology of violent protest and rioting will become normative in many Democrat cities throughout America…and, in time, in all areas of the country.
  • If President Trump wins, the Marxists will hit the streets in angry desperation and their methodology of violent protest and rioting will increase in many Democrat cities throughout America in an effort to “get rid of” Trump.
  • President Trump will respond with a required, rule-of-law forcefulness, which initially will cause more rioting. Whoever blinks first loses. It will be dangerous, messy, bloody, but the future of the United States, as a Constitutional Republic is at stake.
  • The alternative, a Marxist totalitarian regime.
