VIDEO: Christine Douglass-Williams on Why Did Canada Re-Elect Trudeau?

Christine explains the Canadian voting system, how votes for party elect the Prime Minister. She explains how Trudeau is dangerous for Canada, but the country is so divided to make the change. There were too many parties to get the votes needed to push Trudeau out.

Now Canada has another term of the Liberal that is doing exactly what Obama did to America. And… Canada does NOT have a 2 term limit, so Trudeau could remain in power if Canada does NOT come together and raise up a true Conservative candidate that can win against the destructive ambitions of Justin Trudeau. What does it mean to the U.S. and the northern border?

Will Trudeau do as promised and allow in all the migrants into the country that he signed on to the UN Migrant Pact to bring in? What will that mean to America and the security of the northern border?

Time to think about what Trudeau will do and who is pulling his strings!

The secret story behind the Green New Deal: Metals Needed for Carbon Neutrality in Short Supply

Solar panels, wind turbines, and electric car batteries are made from some of the most hard-to-get metals on earth— dysprosium, neodymium, manganese, cobalt, and lithium. According to UK scientists, the current annual global production of cobalt needs to double by 2050 to produce the electric vehicles required to just satisfy British climate targets. Another study found that if countries were to meet the Paris accord and keep warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, demand for cobalt and lithium would exceed the current supply by 2022 and 2023, respectively.

China leads the world in rare earth metal production (a group of 17 chemical elements), supplying 90 percent of the export market. The United States purchases 80 percent of its rare earth metals from China, despite having the resources to produce its own supply. These metals could be extracted profitably in the United States, but are not because of our restrictive and redundant environmental regulations.

Current Production, Reserves, and Prices for Major Metals

According to the BP Statistical Review of World Energy, global production of rare earth metals in 2018 totalled 167 thousand metric tons, with China producing 72 percent of the world’s production. China also controls 38 percent of the world’s reserves, which total 117 million metric tons. China’s reserves are the largest at 44 million metric tons, followed by the United States and Brazil, each with 22 million metric tons, and Russia with 17 million metric tons.

Global production of graphite totals 896 thousand metric tons, with China supplying 71 percent. Graphite reserves total 307 million metric tons with China and Brazil each controlling 24 percent.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo produced the most cobalt in 2018 at 112 thousand metric tons—a 71 percent share of the 158 thousand metric tons produced. Cobalt reserves total 6.6 million metric tons, with the DR Congo controlling 52 percent. However, there are ongoing problems with environmental and child labor issues in the DR Congo; labor abuses linked to cobalt mining have been widely documented by human rights groups and by media organizations across the world.

Australia and Chile lead the world in lithium production with 27 million metric tons and 16 million metric tons, respectively, produced in 2018 from a total of 62 million metric tons. World reserves of lithium total almost 14 million metric tons with Chile controlling 58 percent.

Lithium prices set a record high in 2018 at $14,656 per metric ton—21 percent higher than in 2017. Cobalt prices totaled $72,923 per metric ton in 2018—30 percent higher than in 2017.

U.S. Dependence on Foreign Metals

China leads the world in producing and exporting minerals and metals, supplying many that are critical to U.S. manufacturing, technology and energy production, and national defense. Many critical metals are on U.S. federally-owned lands, including manganese, cobalt, nickel, graphite, aluminum, and several of the rare earth metals. The United States is 100 percent import-reliant for 18 minerals—14 of them are considered “critical” by the Department of Defense or the Department of the Interior.

The United States has a duplicative and inefficient system of regulatory permits and oversight that governs domestic mining. Generally, the U.S. mining industry is faced with a regulatory system that forces them to wait seven to 10 years to obtain a mining permit, compared to Canada and Australia where the process takes two to three years, which limits our nation’s ability to capitalize on our mineral wealth. The United States needs to retool our permitting process so that minerals from U.S. public lands can fuel our advanced energy, infrastructure, and manufacturing technologies, which would increase U.S. manufacturing and its position in the global economy and reduce our dependence on foreign imports.

Conclusion

The United States needs to develop its critical metals and remove its reliance on foreign imports, particularly from the Chinese, who are leaders in rare earth metals and graphite production. These metals are used in many technologies and in national defense systems. To become self-reliant the United States needs to modify its regulatory permitting system and oversight. The sooner we can remove our dependence on these critical metals from foreign interests as we did for oil and natural gas, the better our nation with be economically and militarily. Otherwise, we risk dependency on other international actors for minerals at much higher rates than the United States was ever dependent upon OPEC.

Green New Deal = Hugo Chavez’s Constitution?

After noting that a former chief of staff for socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez admitted that her “Green New Deal” is not about climate but changing the entire economy, Steve Milloy at Breitbart News drew up a list of similarities between it and the constitution ushered in by late Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez in 1999.

Milloy found similarities between the two plans in the areas of sustainable agriculture, education, markets, health care, housing, clean environment, social costs of human activity, no emissions, guaranteed jobs, work safety, unions, trade policy, and indigenous populations.

“Their common source,” Milloy notes, “is likely a United Nations document called the ‘International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights,’ which was passed by the UN General Assembly in 1966 at the behest of the Soviet Union. The UN Covenant itself can be traced back to the Stalin-written Soviet Constitution of 1936.”

And just like Chavez’s and Stalin’s constitutions, the socialist vision of the Green New Deal will lead to economic ruin and untold human misery.

Hugo Chavez

In 1992, Hugo Chavez attempted a military coup of Venezuela. His revolutionary power grab failed and he was jailed until 1994 when he was freed by a presidential pardon. He was elected president in 1998 and has gradually increased his power and armed his personal militia.

Chavez has many links to violent terrorist organizations and totalitarian dictators. On Oct 12, 1999, Chavez was the guest of Communist China. While in China, he declared: “I have been very Maoist all of my life.” Like the Soviet, Cuban, and North Korean hosts of past WFYS meetings, Chavez is a proud Communist and an enemy of the USA.

The Political Money Game

The donations received by political candidates is a strong indicator of their popularity. The more the candidate receives, the stronger their position becomes as it will be used for promotional purposes. The numbers for the last reporting quarter (3rd) to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) was recently concluded with some interesting results.

In the case of the Democrat Presidential Candidates, let’s look at the Top 10 candidates as reported by the FEC:

CANDIDATE- TOTAL $ RECEIVED- THIRD QUARTER-
SANDERS, BERNARD $74,516,657.41 $25,300,000
WARREN, ELIZABETH $60,339,946.81 $24,600,000 (1)
BUTTIGIEG, PETE $51,549,046.28 $19,100,000
STEYER, TOM $49,645,131.61 $49,645,131 (2)
BIDEN, JOSEPH R JR $37,785,260.96 $15,700,000 (3)
HARRIS, KAMALA D. $36,940,238.03 $11,700,000
DELANEY, JOHN K. $27,198,228.24 $ 500,000
BOOKER, CORY A. $18,494,484.80 $ 6,000,000
O’ROURKE, ROBERT BETO $18,184,974.91 $ 4,500,000
KLOBUCHAR, AMY J. $17,516,387.53 $ 4,800,000
  1. Significant upswing in donations, offsetting former VP Biden, and approaching Sen. Sanders’ numbers.
  2. 95.9% was donated by the candidate personally.
  3. Down $7M from last quarter.

Perhaps the most illuminating number, in terms of donations, is that of Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s, which picked up considerable steam in the third quarter. While her donations grew rapidly, former VP Joe Biden’s numbers have been plummeting, perhaps due to the controversy surrounding his participation in his son’s business dealings in the Ukraine and China. Whatever the reason, Sen. Warren has replaced the former VP as the front runner.

Many of the candidates are spending more cash than they receive in donations, particularly Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Former Rep. Beto O’Rourke, Sen. Kamala Harris, and Sen. Cory Booker. Unless they can get a sudden uptick in popularity and substantial cash infusion, it is just a matter of time before they are forced out of the race.

The donations received by the Democrats pale in comparison to the $165M received thus far by President Trump. This does not include the millions also received by the Republican Party. In fact, the Trump campaign has cash reserves of $83.2M, which is more than the top three Democrat candidates combined. Not only is President Trump getting more donations than the Democrats, it appears his campaign knows how to manage their financial resources better.

More than anything, House Speaker Pelosi’s call for an impeachment inquiry triggered a huge response from the president’s supporters who donated generously to his re-election campaign. Such a response was anticipated as this accusation galvanized the Republicans to come to the aid of their president. In other words, it could be construed, the call for impeachment is the best thing that could happen to President Trump’s re-election.

Interestingly, none of the candidates thus far have asked for money from the Presidential Election Fund as found on our IRS 1040 forms. Maybe they are waiting until the final nominees are announced. If they do not use it though, why are we bothering with it?

No matter how you slice it, all of these donations, be it related to the Democrats or Republicans, is an obnoxious amount of money which we should be using for better things, such as repairing our infrastructure, the war on drugs, paying off the national debt, etc. Instead, it will inevitably go to the news media, thereby compounding our problem with fake news, which I personally regard as ridiculous.

Keep the Faith!

VIDEO: The Vortex — Catholic Commandos Attack!!

TRANSCRIPT

Before we begin today, please say a prayer for the repose of my dear father’s soul; today would have been his 90th birthday.

And now to a topic he would have applauded, as well as found quite amusing: the Catholic Commandos and their pitching of Pachamama into the Tiber. Poor ole gal — oh well.

The hypocritical, hysterical response from the usual suspects in and around Rome is really a competition between hypocrisy and hysteria. We’ll let you weigh in on which is greater.

First, the hypocrisy: Seriously, the Vatican calling the police to report theft of some wooden statue idols of pagan goddesses clipped from a Church? Do the folks behind the giant anti-immigration walls understand how that looks?

They get all hepped up about that theft but don’t call the police about an actual theft of more than half a billion euros from their own accounts by corrupt cardinals and prelates?

The only way the world knows about the half-billion-dollar heist from Peter’s Pence by corrupt cardinals is that a private Vatican security notice was leaked to the Italian media, a story that Church Militant was first to report on in the English-speaking world.

So, for the record, “stealing,” not really pagan idols — quick, call the cops, create an international incident — have all the usual dissidents and liberals spread the word far and wide that this is more hate of indigenous people.

But stay as closed-mouth as possible, and certainly do not call the cops about your own prelates actually stealing hundreds of millions. The hypocrisy is revolting.

Now, the hysteria: Evil Jimmy Martin couldn’t wait to jump on social media and break a nail or two pounding away about hating “the other” — blah, blah.

The usual cast of characters pretending to be objective journalists — like Christopher Lamb and Austen Ivereigh — likewise took to social media denouncing the shameful action — which was exactly what again, guys? Oh yeah, pitching pagan idols into the Tiber, idols that should never have been inside a Catholic Church.

The weak-kneed establishment media, alongside the liberal, pretending to be objective Catholic media, have never done stories on the real theft that has been going on for decades.

Where are all your stories about the theft of the patrimony of the Church, the theft of the liturgy, replaced with near-Protestant ritual?

How about the theft of billions of dollars from Catholic parents — like mine, for example — who paid for their children to receive a Catholic education only to turn around and see their grown-up children leave the Faith and embrace atheism?

Where are your stories on the theft of hundreds of millions given for the education of priests as seminarians when what was really going on was the ordination of tens of thousands of gay men, over decades — some of whom abused teenage boys — who neither believed the Faith nor promoted it, and lied to parishioners by the millions?

What about the theft of all that money they took for advanced degrees and travel back and forth to Rome and paying for gay hook-ups? Don’t see all your moral outrage and indignation over those actual cases of theft.

And while we are on the subject of morality among the supposed objective journalists on the Vatican beat, where is the moral outrage among them for a very well-known colleague of theirs who dumped his wife and took up with another woman and shows no shame about it whatsoever?

Purely for the sake of charity, we aren’t going to say his name, but loads of prelates all over Rome and the reporters in that room and pro-gay priests here in the United States know who he is.

So, please, all of you, stop with your fake, virtue-signaling moral outrage over the cleansing of a Church desecrated by pagan idols.

You care nothing for the truth, and certainly have no regard for authentic Catholicism. If you did, you would have been reporting what’s been happening to the Church for the past half-century.

Hats off to the Catholic Commandos who forced the issue by pitching Pachamama into the Tiber. It has had the unintended effect of unmasking all of you as well.

Is there a way to submit an application for the process of sainthood while the Catholic Commandos are still alive?

Oh wait, the prelate in charge of the saint-declaring office is the same prelate who got bumped up to cardinal by Pope Francis after the half-billion was stolen on his watch.

My goodness. what a mess; but, then again, Pope Francis did tell everyone to make a mess, and that, presumably, includes the Catholic Commandos.

VIDEO: President Trump secures permanent ceasefire in northeast Syria

In a major address today, President Donald J. Trump said that Turkey has agreed to turn their recent ceasefire along the Syrian border into a permanent agreement. As a result, the U.S. Treasury has lifted all of its recently imposed sanctions on Turkey.

President Trump: 8 years after failed regime change, it’s time to come home.

The agreement achieved by the Trump Administration, including the original 5-day ceasefire negotiated last week, has helped save lives and allow the Kurds to safely leave affected areas. These actions will help secure a more peaceful and stable border between Turkey and Syria. Ultimately, however, responsibility rests with those countries.

“How many Americans must die in the Middle East in the midst of these ancient sectarian and tribal conflicts?” President Trump asked. “After all of the precious blood and treasure America has poured into the deserts of the Middle East, I am committed to pursuing a different course—one that leads to victory for America.”

The United States expects Turkey to honor its commitments in the efforts to counter ISIS. We have defeated the Islamic State caliphate, and now it’s time for others in the region to step up and ensure ISIS does not regain territory.

“Should Turkey fail to honor its obligations—including the protection of religious and ethnic minorities—we reserve the right to re-impose crippling sanctions, including substantially increased tariffs on steel and all other products coming out of Turkey,” President Trump said.

Tough diplomacy, backed by American economic power and strength, saves lives. It also avoids the worst instincts of the Washington foreign policy establishment. “We have avoided another costly military intervention that could’ve led to disastrous, far-reaching consequences. Many thousands of people could’ve been killed,” the President said.

Bottom line: President Trump will not send tens of thousands of American troops into never-ending conflict in Syria. He is not going to continue the disastrous policies of the previous Administration in the Middle East. And, most important, he is not going to get America into another endless war that costs us countless lives and resources.

President Trump: 30 days turned into 10 years of war.

Schumer Complains About ISIS Terrorists: A proven master of hypocrisy.

President Trump’s decision to pull U.S. troops from Syria was borne of his desire to keep his campaign promises of not continuing to spill American blood by having American troops serve as the “police force for the world.”

It should come as no surprise that Senator Chuck Schumer was among the most vociferous opponents of the President’s decision.  Virtually any statement or decision that President Trump might make immediately becomes the subject of a Chuck Schumer tirade.

On October 17, 2019 the Washington Times reported, Chuck Schumer’s bid to rebuke Trump over Syria fails in Senate. That news report began with this excerpt that show how there is no easy or clear path as to how to deal with this international diplomatic and military quagmire that preceded Trump’s election:

Senators fought Thursday over how to try to patch up the mess in Syria, but it quickly became clear that beyond being frustrated with President Trump, there’s little unity on what, exactly, the U.S. should do.

Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer, New York Democrat, tried to force a symbolic rebuke of Mr. Trump, saying it would send a signal that might make the president reverse his decisions and send U.S. troops back in, but that was blocked by Sen. Rand Paul.

The Kentucky Republican said not only has Congress never authorized going to war in Syria, but sending troops back would mean putting them in between Turkey and the Kurds, both U.S. allies but who are now battling each other.

On October 13, 2019 MSN (MicroSoft News) republished a news report posted by the local NYC radio station, CBS News Radio 880, that announced, Schumer: Trump’s Syria Troop Withdrawal Threatens Security Of NYC.

Here is an excerpt from that report:

Schumer says New Yorkers know the impact of terrorism more than anyone else.

“We’re the number one target for terrorists in America, so we in New York should be particularly worried about what the president has done,” Schumer said.

The senator says the troop withdrawal in northern Syria would likely mean a resurgence for the Islamic State and that many fighters have fake passports.

Stop and consider what Schumer had irrefutably acknowledged: that ISIS terrorists might enter the United States to stage terror attacks, by violating laws that are investigated and enforced primarily by immigration law enforcement personnel.

The entry, or attempted entry into the United States of any alien, with a “fake passport” is a felony, a violation of laws included within the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).  Indeed, aliens who commit visa fraud and/or immigration fraud in conjunction with terrorism face a maximum 25 year prison sentence.

Primary responsibility to enforcing the Immigration and Nationality Act is vested within component agents of the DHS (Department of Homeland Security), specifically Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement).

Unfathomably, although these agencies that play a major role in national security and public safety, they have come under a barrage of extreme criticism by the increasingly radicalized Democratic Party whose leaders have called for the dismantling of immigration law enforcement altogether.

Indeed the “leaders” of the Democratic Party have vilified the Border Patrol and ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents and have created “Sanctuary Cities” and “Sanctuary States” that harbor and shield illegal aliens from detection from ICE agents thereby obstructing the enforcement of our vital immigration laws.

Worse still, some of these Sanctuary States now issue driver’s licenses to illegal aliens, even though their true identities may well be unknown and unknowable.  Furthermore, motor vehicles have become the weapon of choice for terrorists around the world.  A valid driver’s license enables the bearer to rent a vehicle anywhere in the United States.

Providing illegal aliens with such licenses violates the findings and recommendations of the 9/11 Commission that noted that in the aggregate the 19 hijacker/terrorists of 9/11 used more than 300 false identities and variations of false identities.

New York State is one of those states.  This was the prediction for my recent article, New York Will Provide Illegal Aliens With Driver’s Licenses.

In their anti-law enforcement and globalist fervor, radical Democrats have called for disbanding immigration law enforcement altogether ignoring that international terrorists seek to gain entry into the U.S. to carry out terror attacks.

All alien terrorists who seek to enter the U.S. violate multiple sections of the Immigration and Nationality Act.

Indeed, the 9/11 Commission noted that numerous other terrorists who had come to the United States in the decade that preceded the attacks of 9/11 had also committed visa fraud and/or immigration fraud to enter the U.S. and embed themselves in communities around the United States.

The official report, 9/11 and  Terrorist Travel was prepared by federal agents and government attorneys who were assigned to the 9/11 Commission and focused on many of these immigration-related issues.

Page 61 of that report contained this passage:

Exploring the Link between Human Smugglers and Terrorists

In July 2001, the CIA warned of a possible link between human smugglers and terrorist

groups, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and Egyptian Islamic Jihad.    Indeed, there is

evidence to suggest that since 1999 human smugglers have facilitated the travel of

terrorists associated with more than a dozen extremist groups.  With their global reach and connections to fraudulent document vendors and corrupt government officials, human smugglers clearly have the “credentials” necessary to aid terrorist travel.

This paragraph is found on page 98 under the title Immigration Benefits:

Terrorists in the 1990s, as well as the September 11 hijackers, needed to find a way to stay in or embed themselves in the United States if their operational plans were to come to fruition. As already discussed, this could be accomplished legally by marrying an American citizen, achieving temporary worker status, or applying for asylum after entering. In many cases, the act of filing for an immigration benefit sufficed to permit the alien to remain in the country until the petition was adjudicated. Terrorists were free to conduct surveillance, coordinate operations, obtain and receive funding, go to school and learn English, make contacts in the United States, acquire necessary materials, and execute an attack.

In the past, Schumer proposed a federal law that would impose a maximum 5 year penalty on those who would trespass on critical infrastructure particularly for those who are from “overseas” citing concerns about terrorism.  Schumer posted a press release on this issue on his official U.S. Senate website on October 13, 2014.

Furthermore, what Schumer did not mention in his latest attack on President Trump, is that there are, in addition to ISIS terrorists, countless terrorists around the world, seeking to enter the United States to carry out deadly terror attacks.

For decades members of al-Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah and other such foreign-based radical Islamist terrorist organizations have targeted the United States.  Today all that stands between them and America are our borders.

Indeed, as I noted in a recent article, 18 Years After 9/11 The Threat Of Terror Attacks Continues.

If Schumer was truly concerned about protecting America from terror attacks, as he claims, he would support the construction of the border wall and the effective enforcement of our immigration laws, while demanding an end to “Sanctuary” policies.

However, Chuck continues to demonstrate a lack of mouth/ear coordination.  His ears don’t hear the words coming from his own mouth!

VIDEO: Why CAIR Doesn’t Represent American Muslims

In its effort to be piggyback on the intersectional Leftist crowd, the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) espouses a lot of ideas that cater that many American Muslims (especially those who are religiously conservative) do not align with.

As counter-terrorism analyst Oz Sultan explains, the American Muslim diaspora comes from 77 diverse Muslim countries. There’s no standard bearer organization that can say they represent all of us, least of all CAIR.

Listen to Oz explain why CAIR cannot possibly represent American Muslims. Also discover why his participation in the Park 51 project laid the foundation to shape a more integrated program that can address some of the critical issues American Muslims face around faith and identity.

Oz Sultan is founder of Our House NYC. He’s also a Big Data and counterterrorism analyst who helps break down complex problems, including coining the term “jillennial” (jihadi millennial). Sultan was part of the original Park 51 project and had the chance to observe the collaboration and communication breakdowns of leadership of prior generations in Muslim communities, and he’s shaping the next generation of dialogue models with Our House NYC. Our House NYC is envisioned to be the TEDx of religion.

Schools: A Beacon of Hate – or Schools: America’s Killing Field

One of the basic conditions for the victory of socialism is the arming of the workers and the disarming of the bourgeoisie (the middle class). “A system of licensing and registration is the perfect device to deny gun ownership to the bourgeoisie.” – Vladimir Ilyich Lenin


Let me first say that my prayers and thoughts for healing are sent to all families who have lost family members due to a horrific killing. Losing a family member unexpectedly is something we should never have to experience. It is a sad time in America.

Hate speech, racism, anger, are all emotional traits that must be learned. Yes that is right, Hate is an emotion that must be LEARNED.  You have to be taught to hate. Did you ever meet a baby right out of the womb who said I am a racist?  Were their first words, “I hate Jews, Christians, Blacks, Muslims, conservatives, environmentalists, etc.” I don’t think so.  Why is picking up a gun or knife and killing people done by some almost without thought? Because somewhere in their lives, they were taught to hate. Now they are acting out what they have been taught.  Mental illness for the most part has nothing to do with their actions. It is their programming. The biggest question is where is the programming coming from?

As a result of the latest mass murders, all the talking heads were spewing the same recycled trash. Blame Trump or the NRA, or the gun or gun type, or background checks, or magazine, when in reality none of which would have done anything to stop this despicable action.  It was already set in the queue.    Again we were told they killed people because: they hate, they have a mental illness, they are angry, the Presidents words, lack of family, lack of morality or they were bullied. These are symptoms but without knowing and attacking the cause nothing will change.

Over the past few years I have been writing on the damage the government schools have done to our children.  As we know that almost half of the students who graduate can not read, write or do simple math. But what does that have to do with guns?

The school curricula is now filled with hate, disrespect for life, for self and others.  Did this rhetoric lead white Americans to express more prejudiced views of African Americans or Hispanics, whether through the normalization of prejudice or other mechanisms?

The other day Tucker Carlson stated that white supremacy is a hoax. Technically he is right. For the most part America was on the road to assimilation UNTIL… until students in school read

  • about how awful America is
  • that their parents are stupid fools or evil
  • the American experiment was nothing more than a slavery train for the rich
  • American laws were designed for the rich to plunder the poor.
  • the kids learn there is no G-d
  • the truth is what you believe at that moment and no one has the right to invade your truth.
  • unborn life is nothing just a mass.

You are constantly told you are nothing special.  You are only good when you are part of a group and believe that any opposing thoughts and actions are EVIL.

In a recent study, the authors were surprised by their own conclusions which stated, “Our findings contradict both hypotheses, as we primarily found declining prejudice and racial resentment, and certainly no increases.” Hopkins wrote: “Measuring prejudice is notoriously difficult, but we were able to draw on a panel survey, which has posed questions about political issues to the same group of people 13 times since late 2007. Our panel asked the respondents — a representative sample of about 500 white Americans — to rate different racial groups’ work ethic and trustworthiness repeatedly. …

“On average, anti-black prejudice dropped sharply among whites, from … just before the 2016 election to … two years later. … That marked the lowest level of anti-black prejudice since we first conducted this study in late 2008. Prejudice against Hispanics also dropped. … In both instances, declines were larger among Democrats, but they appeared among Republicans, too.” (Is White Racism Really Increasing?)

Hate is an emotion which requires a lot of energy to reinforce. Once multi ethnic marriages were accepted Americans began to choose friends, business associates and acquaintances based on similar interests and abilities not ethnicity.  MLK’s speech began to take root as people judged others by merit not skin color. After 9/11 Americans started coming together.

This unity is out of the question for communists.  They can not allow relationships to dominate. After all what if people talk to each other? They might come up with better answers; they might actually find solutions.  How can communists lie if people talk? So school programs and devices put an end to communication and relationships. What do these school programs offer students? Did it improve their reading, writing and math ability? There are hundreds of school programs that have nothing to do with learning. These programs are designed to play on emotions. Here is a timeline for the destruction of American education.

In America, protection of family was a high priority for men.   Communists knew that this bond must be broken.  War, Sex, Drugs, lack of Jobs and promotion of a poor self image would fill the bill. America’s men could be accused without evidence and called toxic, white supremacist, white nationalist or just plain evil.   A strong masculine image was out and an effeminate image was touted as the “new man”.  LGBTQ was pushed on Americans as though it was the majority when in reality less than 3% of population participates. But once you put these thoughts in vulnerable children the numbers will increase. This is just another idea to control population.  Rather than teach reading, writing, arithmetic, and real biology, they focus on gender.  Sorry but there are only 2.  A feeling of a way you want to practice your life is not the same as actual physical changes.

Biologically you are male or female. Using fancy made up words to describe how you feel at that moment is not a physical change. The communists play with your emotions so a new group can be formed for them to make into victims.  In reality, the LGBTQ community is fighting for rights they already have.   If they were taught history, they would find they are part of “All men are …and We the people…”  The Discrimination Laws already apply to them. It is easier to affect an emotional response than a factual one. So indoctrinate our children is the goal. (Gender Identity Explanation Handouts Pulled From California Middle School Classroom)

In America the feeling was, no one really cares what you do in the comfort of your home. Just don’t push it on the rest of us.  Sadly this attitude led to the majority not paying attention as these programs slid into schools. Now the minority has forced these programs on the majority. Wait a minute what happened to majority rules. I thought America was a democracy like they tell us over and over. Silly me.

What then is actually learned in school?

  • Anything goes
  • There are no consequences or accountability for your actions
  • No meaning to life, family is a burden, there are no heroes, no role models
  • No responsibility, do what you feel at the moment, you are G-d
  • Everyone is the same, no merit, no creativity, no ingenuity
  • No love, no affection, no closeness of another human or family
  • No skills– therefore you can’t reason or analyze your way out of a situation,
  • No trade, no work ethic – no thought is put into work as everything is acceptable.
  • Independent thought is unacceptable as you are told what to think.
  • No American history explaining the meaning of America and why America is exceptional.
  • No basis for comparison as all opposition is squashed.
  • HATE for America and its Judeo-Christian values

You learn you are alone. You have little or no support system as you lack real communication skills.  No one is there to bounce ideas off of; no one to share a memory, an idea, a life. But wait, you do have your hand held device and Alexa who never answers you back.  Not to worry, your sex bot will take care of you without question. With a sex bot you are always right.

No matter how much the communists push the individual down, suppress the individual, individuals still have urges. Urges to be different, to stand out, to make an impression, get notoriety will pop up continually.  That is the problem.  You can ignore them the best you can but the urges become overpowering.

When the trigger actions and trigger words are realized simultaneously we have a perfect storm.  There is no stopping the individual from acting. The individual is not crazy, just programmed that when the moon is in the seventh house and the stars align, they MUST act. Guns, knives, cars, bikes, bombs doesn’t matter, they are driven and must stop that urge. Once this process begins, since human contact is out, there is no sounding board. No one saying stop, this is a bad idea.  There is no hand held device that will stop them. The lust to dominate the narrative is overpowering. You just learned that anything opposing you is evil and evil must be exterminated. YOU become the exterminator.  You are good and you are ridding the earth of this evil blight.

Will ridding the schools of this communist programming be the answer?  Eventually but remember it has taken over 100 years to get this programming in the schools. Getting it out will not be easy. Are you up to the fight?

Is America Worth Saving?

I believe YES.  But no one said it will be easy. They are very powerful (Jeb Bush, Bill Gates to name a few) pushing this narrative even though it fails the kids. They don’t care as long as they have power, money and can control the masses.

Will you review the materials your child reads?

Will you correct the errors?

Will you homeschool?

Will you bring these programs to light at your school board and demand they get removed?

Will you alert your legislator to return America to our schools?

Will you run for office?

If not you, then who? If not now then when?

Anti-Trump Media Bias at Fox Network

“The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.” –  Thomas Jefferson

“The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is keeping them ignorant.” –  Maximilien Robespierre

“The first reaction to truth is hatred.” – Tertullian

“Hatred is something peculiar. You will always find it strongest and most violent where there is the lowest degree of culture.” – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


The news is no longer about investigative reporting.  It’s about protecting some folks and destroying others and shoving a socialist agenda down the collective throats of Americans.  Wonder what happened to our country?  Thomas Paine made it clear when he said, “Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.”  Too many Americans have abdicated that duty.

Then along came Donald Trump and grassroots Americans came out in droves to vote for him.  Why?  Because what this blue-collar billionaire said resonated with the people.  We were starving for a leader to tell the truth and speak to us as we speak to each other without the politically correct schmutz.  And in the United Kingdom, the people voted to exit the European Union (EU) and elected Boris Johnson to do just that knowing he was their best chance for freedom.

In both countries, the elitists are seeking to invalidate the people’s choices.  Brexit has been temporarily stopped for Boris Johnson by a vote of Parliament, and in America, the fraudulent attacks on President Trump continue in the effort to destroy him and remove him from office.  Impeachment is the left’s latest attack.

The mainstream media is the right arm of the socialist Democrat Party and they sensationalize “Resistance, Russia and Racism,” all to help the socialist democrats destroy our duly elected president.  Fox News became the source for truth, but now there are cracks in the veneer of their corporate policies.  The viewers have noticed and so has President Trump.

Fox Impeachment Poll

Between October 6th and 8th a poll was done by Fox News and a high percentage of people wanted President Trump impeached and removed.  Our president was incensed by the results.  The poll showed that 51% of Americans support impeaching President Trump.

In a tweet, he blasted the network for their polling, stating that their pollster “sucks,” and that the network is “much different than it used to be in the good old days.”  He tweeted that from the very day he announced he was running for president; he’s never had a good Fox News poll.  The NY Post released an analysis that says Fox News misrepresented their poll.

President Trump is right when he says t Fox Network is far from the network it was built to be, and that may be because of their newest board member.

Paul Ryan, Willard Romney and George Conway

In March 2019, former Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan joined the board of directors of Fox Corporation.  Ryan is reportedly urging Fox News to “decisively break” with President Donald Trump, according to a Vanity Fair report documenting the network’s “management bedlam.”

Rupert Murdoch’s son, Lachlan Murdoch, CEO of Fox Corporation, has been pushing to move Fox News to the center, and is already thinking about how to move the network to a post-Trump future. This includes the Wall Street Journal, also owned by the Murdoch’s, which lately seems to have taken a hard turn to the left.

Neo-conservative Ryan has never supported Donald Trump and he is now suggesting to Lachlan Murdoch that Fox should break with the president.  Lachlan is holding strategic conversations with Fox executives and anchors about how to prepare for life after Trump.

Paul Ryan, who was the vice-presidential candidate with Willard Romney in 2012, is great friends with this nemesis of our president.  Both men are pro-amnesty and pro-free trade.  Add to this twosome, Kellyanne Conway’s husband, George, who has consistently denigrated our president.

Romney has twice received endorsements from Donald Trump along with funds for his campaign for president and then for senate.  He has betrayed the one who helped him the most.  His vilification of our president please the neo-con Trotskyite crowd who follow the anti-Trump gang.

The three resistance-hero leftists are working together to destroy Donald Trump and those of us who voted for him; we are the “deplorables,” hated by the globalist elitists.

Fox Anti-Trumpers

Shepard Smith has suddenly departed Fox News.  Personally, I wish he’d take his good buddy Andrew Napolitano with him, along with Bret Baier, Chris Wallace, Martha MacCallum, Neil Cavuto, Juan Williams, A. J. Stoddard, Ed Henry, Donna “cheating” Brazile, and others who have always been Never-Trumpers.  There’s the door…don’t let it hit you where the good Lord split you…a fond farewell.  And there are more who need to go if Fox is to be considered a conservative network.

Baier, Wallace, and MacCallum attended an event in Manhattan to assure advertisers that, “Trump doesn’t own them,” according to a piece published recently in the New York Times.  A new report the from the Daily Caller about the relationship between President Donald Trump and Fox News alleges that hosts Chris Wallace and Martha MacCallum criticized and mocked Trump during a closed-door meeting last month.

MacCallum proved her animus against the Trump administration in a recent interview with Rudy Giuliani.

She wouldn’t let Rudy finish a sentence without interruption, something many of the hosts have taken to doing.  To be fair, every guest on any Fox program, should be offered a large roll of duct tape and allowed to slap a big piece of it on the pie hole of the host/hostess who cannot shut their mouths and allow the guest to speak.  They have all carried rudeness to a new level.  (h/t Bud)

As for Andrew Napolitano, he wanted to be a supreme court justice, but was turned down by President Trump.  Since then he’s been an anti-Trumper, and falsely claimed on Fox News that Trump’s phone call with President Zelensky was criminal and impeachable.

During an appearance on Tucker Carlson Tonight, former U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Joe diGenova blasted Fox News senior judicial analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano as “a fool” for assessing that Trump had committed a crime during his July 25 call with the Ukrainian president.  He also said that Democrats’ impeachment efforts amounted to a “seditious attack” on the U.S. government.  “What you’re seeing is regicide; this is regicide by another name: fake impeachment.”

Sean Hannity

In a recent conversation between Geraldo Rivera and Sean Hannity, they were discussing what AG Barr and investigator Durham may find.  Geraldo made the comment that whatever devastating findings they came up with, only Hannity would cover it.  The rest of the fake and corrupt news media will sweep whatever crimes Barack Obama and his henchmen committed under the rug.

Hannity took those comments as an opportunity to point out that Fox News Channel is undergoing quite a sea of change during the so-called “straight news” programming.

Sean explained to Rivera that there were plenty of hosts and on-air talent at Fox who would fit in well at CNN or MSNBC.  “By the way, we are hardly a channel of agreement,” Hannity declared. “We have a few resistance people on the channel if we’re gonna be honest, Geraldo! I mean total resistance, not half-resistance,” Hannity concluded.

Hannity could have been referring to “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace who blatantly misrepresented the testimony of special envoy to Ukraine Kurt Volker saying it was devastating to President Trump.  Chris Wallace proved his leftist bias as a moderator in the 2016 presidential debates, so his antipathy for our president is not new.

Wallace, as well as other on-air talent at Fox News, like Smith and Judge Andrew Napolitano, threw in with the anti-Trump resistance to try and remove the President from office.

Judge Jeanine Pirro

From Business Insider comes this report on Judge Jeanine Pirro.

Fox News host Jeanine Pirro confirmed she was suspended from the network in March 2019, and said it was the first step in plans to fire her. In comments made during a commercial break on the radio show of former White House aide Sebastian Gorka, Pirro said that her suspension was “the basis to tee up for anything I do wrong, they’ll fire me.”

The judge missed two weeks from the network and followers thought she’d been fired.  It was all because she questioned whether Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Somali Muslim, could be loyal to the United States because she wears a hijab.  Fox News has never confirmed that she was suspended.

President Donald Trump expressed his support for Pirro, tweeting: “Bring back Judge Jeanine Pirro,” and blaming it on the “Fake News Media” and “Radical Left Democrats.”

The judge also said her bosses at Fox News had barred her from talking to other media outlets.  She said, “Fox reviews everything. They’re unbelievable.  They’re still saying you cannot do Bill O’Reilly; you cannot do Newsmax.”

Fox News publicly criticized Pirro’s remarks in a statement in March, saying the host’s views did not “reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly.”

Todd Starnes

Fox News Radio host and commentator Todd Starnes’ contract with the news outlet is not being renewed, an announcement that follows a controversial segment from his radio show. Starnes already has other projects in the works.

Todd has started Starnes Media Group, which he described as “a multi-faceted broadcasting and digital company focused on delivering authentic conservative news and commentary.”  He has also been in negotiations to purchase a news radio station.

In late October, the radio host interviewed Fox News commentator Robert Jeffress, a Texas-based pastor and stalwart supporter of President Donald Trump. During the interview, Jeffress suggested Democrats worship the pagan god Moloch, who is biblically associated with child sacrifice.  Jeffress is right.  Think communist China is bad?  In America babies are being aborted alive and their organs “harvested” from them while they’re still breathing.  Jeffress and Starnes are spot on!

And last August, Starnes caused a stir when he said the U.S. is suffering a “slow-moving invasion,” referring to illegal immigration. The progressive group Media Matters said Todd likened the situation on the southern border to invasions by the Nazis in the 1930s.

Todd Starnes said he will not compromise his beliefs, not even when he’s enjoyed 15 years at Fox.

One America News Network (OANN)

There’s a new sheriff in town, and it’s One America News Network  (OANN).  President Trump has loved Fox News and many of the hosts, but his allegiance is changing.  One America News has slowly but surely won his affections since the 2016 presidential election.

As Trump publicly lashes out at his old favorite Fox, the six-year-old One America News Network that was launched at the 2013 Conservative Political Action Conference made its way up the crowded broadcast news ladder and into the heart of our President.

In 2000, Robert Herring Sr. won $122 million by selling the family’s circuit board printing business, Herco TechnologyThe Washington Post reported that upon his retirement, his insomnia allowed him ample time to watch television, which eventually inspired his move into the industry.

Robert and Charles Herring Founders of One America pose for a picture at the

Conservative Political Action Conference on Thursday March 14, 2013, in Oxon Hill, Maryland.

One America News is a lesser-known outlet that has aired Trump’s rallies in full and has opinion anchors casting impeachment proceedings by House Democrats as a lie-ridden “frenzy.

Herring’s touch on the channel appeared in its first year in a two-hour special on Terri Schiavo, a Florida woman who had spent half her life in a vegetative state and became the face of the right-to-die debate. Robert Herring offered $1 million to Schiavo’s husband to stop trying to get her off life support. He refused and Schiavo died in 2005 after her feeding tube was removed.

Charles Herring told the Daily Beast just before the announcement that he believed “it is getting really hard to find just the reliable, credible, fact-based news with substance.”

Conclusion

Lou Dobbs is excellent, and there are other Fox hosts who speak the truth, but Chris Farrell of Judicial Watch was eliminated from Fox because he made the statement that Soros was funding the illegal alien caravans.  Fox called Farrell an anti-Semite and banned him from the network.  He can now be seen on OANN.  If you want real conservative news…One America News has it.  Dish Network carries it, as does Roku, which is becoming more and more popular.  For information on receiving OANN, see my previous article.

Abolish the Diversity Visa Lottery [+Video]

Diversity Visa Lottery is “America’s  Achilles heel” said Sen. Dianne Feinstein in an interview in 2015.


What is the Visa Lottery?

The Diversity Visa Lottery also known as (the Green Card Lottery) is an immigration program by which immigrants from nations with usually low rates of immigration to the United States are able to apply for a visa online. The platform, however, has been used by terrorists to penetrate America. On October 31, 2017, Sayfullo Saipov used a rental pickup truck to deliberately mow down pedestrians. After killing 8 and injuring 13, he left the truck and shouted, “Allahu Akbar.” Sayfullo is an Uzbekistan national and came to America in 2010. Later officials found a note about his allegiance to ISIS. This attack immediately received worldwide reaction from other lawmakers including the US. A bill proposed in August that would slash legal immigration levels in half over a decade also would eliminate the lottery program.

The bill went to the House and overwhelmingly passed, but stopped in the Senate. Each year, the Diversity Visa Program accepts 50,000 randomly selected people—only from countries that don’t send many immigrants to the United States—to obtain permanent residency (commonly called a “green card”). It’s a way for individuals and families who otherwise wouldn’t have any way to legally immigrate to the United States to get a green card.

The program is often seen as one that should be ended in a shift toward a more merit-based system. According to Heritage Foundation: “It does not bolster the skills of the American workforce, nor does it reunite families or serve any humanitarian function. Its only purpose is to increase ethnic and cultural heterogeneity in the U.S.–a dubious goal that weakens the social ties within communities.”

The diversity lottery program has been an unwise policy since its inception in 1986. This program is a dangerous gamble. Many Muslims who arrive in America, are deeply indoctrinated by Islamic credos and find it impossible to assimilate into host countries. In fact, their leaders and Imams encourage them to stay away from the American people and only stay within their own community. Hypocrisy is a Muslim trait while they strive to impose their own defunct 7th century barbaric ideology – which is the cause of their own misery – on the host nation.

Both America’s political parties are guilty of keeping much of the US population in the dark about Islam’s mission in the US. Those who dare to ask their representatives questions regarding this matter, will assure their constituents that in general, Muslims are law-abiding citizens of their adopted countries and it is only a minority that is responsible for the violence and chaos, so lies and deceptions are told.

A Muslim is required to abide by their own laws under Sharia and not the Constitution of the United States of America. Because it is mandatory for a Muslim to adhere to Islamic laws and not to a man-made law such as the US Constitution, therefore it is logical to state a Muslim can never be both a Muslim and an American at the same time.

President Trump is 100% accurate in his assessment to completely abolish this bogus “Diversity Visa Program.” Critics argue that the program is susceptible to fraud and manipulation, and that identity fraud is ‘endemic. Critics also assert that the program poses a danger to national security.

Personal Encounter

A few years ago, I met a young Muslim man in his early 20s from Tunisia, who worked for a major hotel brand as a van driver. I casually asked him regarding America and how does he feel being here. He was a van driver, working for a hotel while attending a university, he said. He openly expressed his views to me on how much he resents America and he refuses to take hotel guests to liquor stores or to strip clubs because it was against his religion.  I questioned him on how he obtained his Green Card and what made him to come to the United States. He said, one day, as he was checking his mailbox, he noticed that he had won the “lottery” program.  In our brief conversation, I noticed his demeanor was belligerent and extremely repulsive towards America. In fact, I felt that he would not hesitate to join any radical Islamic groups in the US.

Our non-functional immigration system, with a welcome letter sent him a lottery invitation to a devout and dangerous young Muslim man who was full of hate for America. Go figure!

“Among the heaviest users of the US Diversity Visa lottery are people in countries known to have terrorism problems. Entering the Diversity Visa program, Islamists openly felt, was their opportunity to access the US and cause destruction to the country and its people, which they viewed as their enemy.”

Although President Trump is not the first and will certainly not be the last president who wants to abolish this bogus Green Card Lottery. But he is the only President who is pushing the envelope harder than all previous Presidents. This program is completely irrational and deeply flawed, especially about terrorism. Our immigration system is not just broken, it is shattered. It is beyond repair.

This nonsocial program like other immigration packages is unnecessary and threatens the safety and security of the American people. Whether you are a Democrat or Republican, it is your duty to abolish this risky program which threatens our national security.

Australian media shows real unity on freedom of speech

Posted by Eeyore

One can only wish American and Canadian media did the same after the treatment of Assange and possibly even Snowdon depending on the leaks. With Assange for sure, it was leaks from whistle blowers who leaked important material for Democracy which upset powerful people who felt they had a right to rule like the Clintons and their associates. With Snowdon its more complex as he may have leaked real military materials that could have gotten assets for US intel killed. However his revelations about NSA spying on the people and the obliteration of the 4th amendment deserved a Pulitzer.

Australian newspapers black out front pages in ‘secrecy’ protest

Australia’s biggest newspaper rivals have made a rare showing of unity by publishing redacted front pages in a protest against press restrictions.

The News Corp Australia and Nine mastheads on Monday showed blacked-out text beside red stamps marked “secret”.

The protest is aimed at national security laws which journalists say have stifled reporting and created a “culture of secrecy” in Australia.

The government said it backed press freedom but “no one was above the law”.

In June, police raids on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) and the home of a News Corp Australia journalist generated a huge backlash.

The media organisations said the raids had been conducted over articles which had relied on leaks from whistleblowers. One detailed allegations of war crimes, while the other reported an alleged attempt by a government agency to spy on Australian citizens.

One can only wish these papers had done this when the Union of Journalist rules came into effect, which were entirely a forced dialectic twist to the left in all cases and have been observed by MSM for over a decade now across the Western world. These rules are one of the main the reasons that we cannot know who did a thing if it was a muslim etc. etc. but if it is a white person we know right away, and dozens more subtle decisions which force a paper to always make non whites and non-Christians look less guilty than the proportion of their acts, and White Christians look more guilty by proportion.  This defines dialectic twists leading leftwards in all ways. Policy is set using this illusion.

(The link to the rules on minority reporting is now much more difficult to find than it was last time I posted it. Will add to this when found.)

The Pelosi-Schiff Impeachment Farce Has No Respect for Due Process

“Earlier this week, Rep. Denny Heck, a Democratic member of the House Intelligence Committee, told reporters that Republicans ‘are darn lucky these [impeachment hearings and depositions] weren’t public,’” Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) writes in the Washington Examiner.

“Implication: The information coming out is horrifically damaging to President Trump. Reality: If the information was truly damaging to Trump, Democrats would hold open hearings and would have already released transcripts of the testimonies.”
