Moore: White Guys Who Voted For Trump ‘Are Not Good People’

/in , , , , /by

In a video interview with Rolling Stone magazine published on Tuesday, documentary propagandist and anti-white racist Michael Moore stated that white men who voted for President Trump were “not good people.”

“I refuse to participate in post-racial America,” Moore said. “I refuse to say because we elected Obama that suddenly that means everything is OK, white people have changed. White people have not changed.

“Two-thirds of all white guys voted for Trump,” he continued. “That means anytime you see three white guys walking at you, down the street towards you, two of them voted for Trump. You need to move over to the other sidewalk because these are not good people that are walking toward you. You should be afraid of them.”

Moore is one of the left’s most hateful demagogues. Apart from the fact that Trump supporters are the ones being assaulted all over the nation, not the ones doing the assaulting, this is pure, ugly racism — the kind only leftists can get away with saying in the media.

In his 2001 book, Stupid White Men, Moore proposed that Congress should give Israel 30 days to end its use of military measures against the Palestinians—measures, he neglected to point out, that were in response to the massive wave of terrorism associated with the Second Intifada. By Moore’s reckoning, if Israel failed to put an end to the bloodshed in the region within the 30-day period, the U.S. should promptly terminate all funding for the Jewish state. He also explained that state-sponsored terrorism (a reference to Israel) was worse than the brand of terrorism practiced by the Palestinians. Further, Moore declared that the Palestinians should not only be given their statehood, but should receive twice as much economic assistance from the United States as Israel received.

In 2003 Moore was honored by the Muslim American Public Affairs Council, for “his courageous commitment to social justice and uncovering the truth.” MPAC believes that “Israel was established by terrorism” that “involved the unjust and illegal usurpation of Muslim and Christian land and rights.”

Lawless Mexico Kills 1,000 Times More Americans Than Terrorists Do

/in , , , , , /by

A series of major events in recent months have revealed just how lawless and uncivilized the northern provinces of Mexico have become. Since these form the actual border with the southern United States, this causes a direct threat and makes the case for the wall even more urgent.

The highest profile incident was the military-like strike by one of the Mexican cartels against American citizens traveling in a convoy just south of the American border, slaughtering 21 men, women and children.

But that was a single incident that got our attention because they were Americans. The reality is that this is life in the provinces of Northern Mexico, where the federal government only makes forays and local government and police are hopelessly corrupted by cartel money and threats. Honest politicians and police have very short lifespans, hence there are few.

An in-depth article by the Louisville Courier Journal, journalism the way it used to be done, focuses on the biggest cartel leader, but paints a portrait of an entire region that acts as a country within a country, with its own brutal rules that is devastating millions of Americans. It is an enemy of the United States through its operations, but operating with a sort of umbrella protection from attacks by the American military by technically being Mexico.

The Investigation estimates than since 2013, about 300,000 Americans have died directly from illegal drug addictions. And the vast majority of those drugs came from Mexico. About 300 Americans have been killed in terrorist attacks since 2013. That’s a 1,000 to 1 ratio.

The article tags Rubén “Nemesio” Oseguera Cervantes, also known as El Mencho, the leader of Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación, better known as CJNG. He has a $10 million reward on his head and is on the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s Most Wanted list. But it would require a full-scale military operation to get him, and considering the cartel infiltration in the Mexican Army, that is remote. Perhaps a U.S. Seal Team could do it, but that would require approval of the Mexican government, also remote.

“A nine-month Courier Journal investigation reveals how CJNG’s reach has spread across the U.S. in the past five years, overwhelming cities and small towns with massive amounts of drugs.

“The investigation documented CJNG operations in at least 35 states and Puerto Rico, a sticky web that has snared struggling business owners, thousands of drug users and Mexican immigrants terrified to challenge cartel orders.”

So, El Mencho’s incredibly powerful and connected international drug syndicate is flooding the United States with thousands of kilos of methamphetamines, fentanyl, heroin and cocaine every year. This Mexican cartel alone smuggles at least 120 tons of high-purity meth and cocaine into the U.S. each year. This bottomless deluge of narcotics has created addictions at historic levels, causing heartache for millions and spiking the suicide rate.

The Courier Journal investigation reported, “The unending stream of narcotics has contributed to this country’s unprecedented addiction crisis, devastating families and killing more than 300,000 people since 2013.”

That is an enemy of the United States with damaging successes that terrorists around the globe can only dream of.

Uttam Dhillon, DEA’s acting administrator, calls CJNG’s rapid growth from the Atlantic to the Pacific in under 10 years “clear, present and growing danger.” Seems to understate it.

According to the Courier Journal investigation:

“The billion-dollar criminal organization has a large and disciplined army, control of extensive drug routes throughout the U.S., sophisticated money-laundering techniques and an elaborate digital terror campaign, federal drug agents say. Its extreme savagery in Mexico includes beheadings, public hangings, acid baths, even cannibalism. The cartel circulates these images of torture and execution on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites to spread fear and intimidation.”

This is precisely how terrorist organizations such as ISIS and Al-Qaeda operate.

The cartels have enormous resources and manpower, and control most of the border areas in some fashion. They can build intricate tunnels, use technology and attempt to smuggle drugs and people into the country in numerous ways.

Some Americans think this means that a wall is useless. What it actually means is that a wall is merely an essential first step in an ongoing war to secure our border from the predatory Mexican cartels that control the lands south of it and are, literally, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans.

The wall is a start. So are deportations.

On a small upbeat note, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency deported more than a quarter of a million illegal aliens from the United States in Fiscal Year 2019 (September 2018 through October 2019) including roughly 5,500 gang members. That’s a 20 percent increase over 2017.

But that, too, is only one of the multiple steps necessary if we are to regain control of our southern border and start reducing the staggering number of drug addiction deaths.

Christmas in the Age of Jihad

/in , , , , , , /by

Merry Christmas to all Jihad Watchers who are celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ tonight and tomorrow.

The question before us this Christmas, as it is every Christmas these days, is whether or not Christians should be allowed to be Christian and celebrate Christmas freely, without being brutalized or discriminated against, if they live in Iran, or Iraq, or Egypt, or Pakistan, or Nigeria, or Indonesia, or other Muslim countries, and whether free people of all creeds and perspectives should defend their right to do so.

In many countries today, Christians are being kidnapped, imprisoned, wrongly arrested, beaten, and murdered — not because of anything they have done, but because they have dared to have beliefs that are considered blasphemous in authoritative Islam. We see this at Jihad Watch on a regular basis. We see jihadists attacking Christians with unremitting fury. We also see the world continuing to yawn and remain indifferent as all this goes on, and weak and cowardly Christian leaders saying that we must not talk about it for fear of “provoking” Muslims and harming a chimerical and fruitless (at best) Muslim/Christian “dialogue.” Those who dare anyway to speak out about the persecution of Christians that the persecutors justify by invoking the Qur’an and Sunnah are vilified, demonized, and silenced as “bigots” and “Islamophobes.” Even some Christians do this to their fellow Christians who speak unwelcome truths on these matters.

So here is something to remember this Christmas: if you are a free human being, whether or not you are Christian, those Christians who are being persecuted in Iran, and Iraq, and Indonesia, and Nigeria, and Egypt, and Pakistan, and elsewhere in the Islamic world, are standing in your place. The jihadis would just as soon attack you as well, and will eventually if they get the chance. Remember that the Islamic jihad program has you on its list. You may not be a Christian. You may not be a Jew. You may not be a Hindu. You may not be a Buddhist. You may not wish to pay attention to the jihad at all. But the jihad is universal, and relentless. And you are on its list.

So this Christmas, may all of us whose conversion, subjugation, or death is envisioned by the adherents of Sharia stand together. Let us stand together as Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, atheists, secularists, what have you, and stand up against those who would kill us or subject us to institutionalized discrimination and harassment (at best) because they find our beliefs offensive.

For be assured: if we do not stand together, they will prevail. And if they prevail, then all the richest manifestations of the unfettered human spirit, from the Hagia Sophia to the temple of mausoleums of Timbuktu, from the works of Socrates and Aristotle to those of Confucius and Moses Maimonides and Dante Alighieri and Winston Churchill and Oriana Fallaci, will be trampled into the mud, destroyed, exploded, ruined, effaced. We will all be the poorer. Our children will be the poorer.

It is time to fight for our lives.

Merry Christmas!

VIDEO: The Vortex — Year of the Devil?

/in , , , , , , /by

TRANSCRIPT

An Italian exorcist is publicly warning that what he calls aggressive satanism is forecasting a collapse of society, and he’s attributing it to the collapse of the family. Father Francois Dermine, a Dominican, is saying that children are being exposed to the demonic at younger and younger ages, and it’s taking its toll.

While much of this has remained off the front pages, some of it is becoming more well known. For example, recent news about a publication titled A Children’s Book of Demons has many people understandably concerned. It’s marketed specifically for children 5–10 years old and presents a fun experience for little children, with bright and colorful images of roughly 20 devils, presenting them as kind of friendly cartoon characters.

The book is the work of an occultist and skilled illustrator, Aaron Leighton, who also uses the book as a means to teach children how to actually summon demons through the use of what’s known as the sigil, a magical symbol.

Father Dermine says the book is further evidence of just how much things have deteriorated in a very short amount of time because, just a few years ago, almost no one would have imagined such a book would ever be thought of, much less produced and sold — and now a virtual slew of them are being produced, aimed again specifically at young children.

There’s the Satanic Coloring Book, with its cover design of children happily coloring in a pentagram for its cover, which came out in October — but not before the August release, right on the hooves of the Children’s Book of Demons, of Baphomet and Friends: The Satanic Coloring Book. The lower part of the cover says: “Presenting Satan, Lucifer, Black Goat, Catlhulhu, Dracula, Cthulhu, the grim reaper, the Krampus, Witch and More!”

If you’ve been keeping track, that’s a child’s demon book released in quick succession in July, August and October. Parents should be deeply worried.

But, Fr. Dermine says, that’s just the problem; not only are parents not worried, they aren’t even engaged. With the continuing dissolution of the family, children have very few role models, he says. And that, combined with a plummeting interest in the Church by young people, and you have the two major ingredients for a huge upsurge in interest in the occult and the demonic.

The Church, owing to the massive weakness of its current leadership — not just in Rome but all over the West — is driving children away. Recent polling from Pew and others reveals an astonishing statistic: that it isn’t just adults leaving the Church, but young children. A majority of people who leave when they reach adulthood told Pollster they actually stopped believing when they were 10–18 years old. Those ages and even younger — as we see from the coloring book explosion — are when children and teens become exposed to the satanic elements, usually through other friends in school.

Father Dermine says that exposure at these young ages creates what he calls a “satanist mentality,” where the occult and the black arts just become normal. Whatever shock — if there ever was any — simply fades away and satanic rituals and witchcraft and so forth become completely accepted as no big deal, and even participated in as normal activity.

There is no doubt that all this demonic and occultism and witchcraft is getting ready to explode into the mainstream. At some point, a critical mass gets reached and the inevitable mainstreaming hits. With the U.S. presidential election coming next year, 2020 just might be the year it all comes into the open.

For example, this past October, 13,000 self-proclaimed witches cast what’s called a “binding spell” on President Trump, hoping to knock his administration off track. In fact, witches and their activity have been multiplying since the very day Trump became president. In 2018, a large number of New York covens of witches hosted a spell-casting ritual against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

As a point of reference, researchers have found that witchcraft has been increasing since the 1990s. Then there were an estimated 8,000 wiccans in the United States. Ten years later, in 2008, their ranks had grown to 340,000 and five years ago, in 2014, Pew Research pegged their number at 1.5 million — almost half a percent of the entire U.S. population (and remember, that was five years ago).

In these intervening five years, we’ve witnessed a number of Black Masses gaining considerable attention, social media sites selling what they at least claim are consecrated Hosts for desecration, and God only knows how many more witches and self-professed pagans — likely millions. All the signs indicate that conditions are ripe for a titanic clash between good and evil, in the Church and in the culture at large. The storm clouds have been gathering for a long time now, and perhaps most disturbing is the association of all this evil with children.

Sixty million killed through abortion, millions more with no stable family, no moral role models — and now an exploding satanic culture poised to emerge from the shadows and go mainstream.

This coming year’s election may be the focal point, the center of a storm, but it is absolutely certain that what will be swirling around it, the driving winds of the storm, will be an intense spiritual war.

Virginia Gov. Northam Wants to Ban Your Guns AND Make You Pay for It!

/in , , , , , , /by

As if Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s wholesale attack on law-abiding gun owners wasn’t enough, the disgraced public official and his Michael Bloomberg-bought allies in the General Assembly now want the state’s hard-working taxpayers to foot the bill for their unconstitutional schemes. The budget bill (HB30) includes an appropriation of a quarter million dollars to carry out a host of gun control measures that Northam and his anti-gun allies hope to enact.

The $250,000 is appropriated to the Corrections Special Reserve Fund in order to provide for the “increase in the operating cost of adult correctional facilities resulting from the enactment” of Northam’s gun control measures. Among the enumerated laws that this allocation is meant to fund is a ban on commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms, the criminalization of private firearms transfers, and gun confiscation orders issued without due process.

Aside from the insult of forcing law-abiding Virginia taxpayers to pay for the diminution of their rights, the gun control allocation is a severe waste of resources. Northam’s Bloomberg-backed gun control measures will not make Virginia safer.

In additional to being unconstitutional, a ban on commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms will not reduce violent crime.

Long guns of any description are rarely used in violent crime. FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data breaks down homicides by weapon type. In 2018, the FBI reported that there were five times as many individuals listed as killed with “knives or cutting instruments,” than with rifles of any kind. The data also showed that rifles were listed as being used in less homicides than “blunt objects (clubs, hammers, etc.)” or “personal weapons (hands, fists, feet, etc.).”

A 1997 Department of Justice-funded study of the 1994 federal “assault weapons” ban determined that “At best, the assault weapons ban can have only a limited effect on total gun murders, because the banned weapons and magazines were never involved in more than a modest fraction of all gun murders.” A 2004 follow-up Department of Justice-funded study came to a similar conclusion. The study determined that “AWs [assault weapons] and LCMs [large capacity magazines] were used in only a minority of gun crimes prior to the 1994 federal ban,” “relatively few attacks involve more than 10 shots fired,” and “the ban’s effects on gun violence are likely to be small at best and perhaps too small for reliable measurement.”

So-called “universal” background checks do not stop criminals from obtaining firearms.

Background checks don’t stop criminals from stealing firearms, getting them on the black market, or getting them from straw purchasers. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, 75 percent of criminals in state and federal state prison who had possessed a firearm during their offense acquired the firearm through theft, “Off the street/underground market,” or “from a family member or friend, or as a gift.” Less than one percent got firearms from dealers or non-dealers at gun shows. ATF has reported, “[t]he most frequent type of trafficking channel identified in ATF investigations is straw purchasing from federally licensed firearms dealers.”

This year, researchers at the Bloomberg School of Public Health and the UC Davis School of Medicine found that comprehensive background checks and prohibitions based on violent misdemeanors “were not associated with changes in firearm suicide or homicide.”

Aside from enabling the unacceptable deprivation of constitutional rights without due process, an Extreme Risk Protection Order (Red Flag) law is unnecessary in Virginia because the state already has strong and effective civil commitment laws.

Under Virginia law, a law enforcement officer may take an individual into emergency custody for a mental health evaluation without prior court approval. A person detained in this manner is then evaluated to determine whether they meet the criteria for a temporary detention. A person that was subject to a temporary detention order and subsequently agreed to voluntary admission to a mental health facility is prohibited from possessing firearms until their rights are restored by a court.

Tax-paying Virginians should not have to foot the bill for Northam and Bloomberg’s radical attack on their fundamental rights. Please contact Gov. Northam and let him know you oppose his unconstitutional gun control measures. You can contact Northam using the Governor’s Office contact form below or call his office at 804-786-2211​.

Stay tuned to www.nraila.org for updates. And, in the meantime, please sign up to volunteer to help defeat Northam and Bloomberg’s gun control legislation.

Rise Of Skywalker: The Babylon Bee Review

/in , , , , /by

We sit in the theatre, waiting, the air thick with anticipation and the smell of popcorn and broken dreams. There aren’t that many people, surprisingly. A few superfans are dressed up as obscure alien characters we don’t recognize.

The movie comes on. It is a confusing CGI spectacle. The plot is unclear. We wonder why God has unleashed this vengeance upon us. We toss someone overboard to see if that appeases His wrath. It does not. More CGI comes on screen. It is a colorful vomit of characters with silly names, dramatic speeches about nothing, and lots of singing and dancing.

And fur. So much fur.

It is then we realize we’re in the wrong theatre, watching Cats with a bunch of furries. We rush down the hall and into the right theatre as they hiss at us.

Then, it finally comes onscreen: STAR WARS! The opening crawl appears: “People who thought The Last Jedi was a masterpiece: Leave this theater now.” This crawl sets the tone for the rest of the movie. From Rey looking at the camera and saying, “Hey, guys, sorry about that last one” to JJ Abrams making a cameo appearance where he pushes Rian Johnson down a reactor shaft, the movie is full of subtle winks and nods that Disney is disavowing The Last Jedi. It feels cheap for them to change direction, almost design-by-committee, but then again, it was The Last Jedi.

Things happen on the screen. The space wizards have laser sword battles. Some things explode with deafening booms in space, Neil deGrasse Tyson be darned. We cheer and clap at the appropriate moments. We shout, “Yes!” when something good happens and “No!” when it looks like all hope is lost.

At the exciting conclusion of the film, an interactive element comes into play: “We can only defeat the Emperor if you all clap and say, ‘I do believe in Star Wars!'” Rey shouts. “I can’t hear you!” The audience is electrified. One by one, we stand, mere mortals alone, but something bigger together. People of different races, creeds, colors, nationalities, and classes all standing as one in defiance of the Dark Side.

It is then we realize the Resistance is not fictional. We are the Resistance, you and I. Together. Standing.

The caption that then appears reading, “By standing you agree to subscribe to Disney+ for $9.99/mo” cheapens the moment, but only a little. Overall, we all agree this was a satisfying conclusion to a trilogy that made us say, “Yes, this universe is somewhat recognizable as Star Wars.”

Some other stray observations as we try to gather our thoughts:

  • Naming the object they were searching for “MacGuffin” seemed a little on the nose.
  • Palpatine the Grey returning as Palpatine the White felt derivative.
  • Disney vendors walking up and down the aisles shouting, “Baby Yoda, Baby Yoda, Get your Baby Yodas here!” distracted a bit from the action onscreen.
  • The movie was alright, but man, we coulda been rewatching The Mandalorian instead.
  • The characters linking hands and singing “We Are The World” over the end credits was a nice touch.
  • The lesbian kiss got all the media buzz, burying the lede that Rey and Kylo declare they have an open, polygamous relationship at the end.
  • Hey, JJ Abrams, whatever happened with that polar bear in Lost?

We will definitely be seeing it again, as Disney has contractually obligated all Star Wars fans to no less than 7 repeat viewings.

We’ll say this in no uncertain terms: Rise of Skywalker is better than Cats.

AOC: U.S. Not ‘an Advanced Society,’ We Live in ‘Fascism’

/in , , , , , , /by

Stumping for presidential contender Bernie Sanders on Saturday at a California rally featuring race-baiting academic Cornel West, socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) claimed that the United States is “not an advanced society” and is devolving into a fascist country.

“Establishing a loving society in the United States of America” isn’t an “irrational, overly feeling, sympathetic statement,” AOC stated. Instead, it’s part of an ongoing mission to achieve “an advanced society,” she argued.

“What we’re living in right now is not an advanced society,” she asserted insanely before being interrupted briefly by a shout from the crowd. “It is fascism, what we have, what we’re evolving into, as well,” she continued.

Rational people recognize that we are not moving toward a “fascist” society, much less living in one. And even if you interpret “advanced” to mean “caring,” we are unquestionably the most advanced nation in history. But AOC and her cohorts are fear-mongering, anti-American, utopian demagogues who want to take this country down the road to — that’s right — fascism.

While speaking with Senator Bernie Sanders at a November 2019 “Climate Crisis” summit in Iowa, Ocasio-Cortez said to a raucous audience of impassioned supporters: “Are you all ready for a revolution? I sure am.” “When people try to accuse us of going too far left — we’re not pushing the party left,” she added. “We are bringing the party home.” Also in the course of her address, the congresswoman said: “The reason we are in this crisis is because oil and gas has been one of the most profitable industries of the modern era and when we talk about fighting money in politics what we’re talking about is fighting big oil. We’re talking about fighting Wall Street. We’re talking about fighting big pharma.” Suggesting that the only way to get “get through this moment” [i.e., the Donald Trump presidency] was to “guarantee” health care to every American, she added: “Here’s the thing, is that we can beat him but we have to vaccinate ourselves against something like this [Trump’s 2016 election victory] ever happening again, and the way we inoculate ourselves … from late-stage hyper capitalistic concentration of wealth among the very, very few is with a labor movement.” Asserting also that “the way we inoculate ourselves from continuing to burn up our planet … is by honoring indigenous wisdom and allowing it to guide our climate policy,” Ocasio-Cortez stated: “The way that we preserve our systems is by transitioning to principles of universality. That means I want you clothed, I want you educated, I want you paid a living wage — no ifs, ands, or buts. And what that also means … is directly, consciously, combating white supremacy in the United States of America.”

Please pay special attention to this video. This brilliant woman could not be more aware of the nature of what is happening to her. It raises the question as to whether that means they will feel compelled to abandon this farce of a trial for “hate” or double down to set the example. Which is of course what communists always do.

I believe this is the same woman giving a speech describing her arrest and the treatment she received at the hands of an increasingly totalitarian state.

This might also be a good time to consider why the 2nd amendment in the US constitution was a stroke of genius and prescience as well.

Muslim public school student takes off hijab, teacher says she will notify her parents “because it’s your culture”

/in , , , , /by

This girl could have been beaten or killed for taking off her hijab, but of course this public school teacher doesn’t know that, as she has been fed a steady diet of fiction and fantasy about Islam being a religion of peace and the hijab being a choice, and she knows that only racist, bigoted “Islamophobes” think otherwise. Women’s rights for Muslim girls and women? Why, what’s the need for that? They don’t suffer any discrimination or harassment!

“My teacher almost outed me for taking off the hijab (Update),” Reddit, December 19, 2019:

So today I was happy. I had completely stopped covering my hair and was talking confidently with other people, I was just so joyful I wanted to go home and dream about it at night.

Then in math class, when the bell rang to switch, a teacher asked me about my hijab. I told her that I just took it off and it was no big deal. She then told me that it was important to uphold culture and asked if my parents knew what I was doing. Being the idiot I am, I said no and asked if she would tell. To my absolute horror, she said yes.

My whole world stopped. I asked her why she would do that and she just said “because it’s your culture! And you were given an advantage to be able to wear the hijab as a uniform, so don’t just take advantage.” I put my head down for a while, holding back tears. Before I knew it, it was time for the last class. In the hallway I just walked mindlessly to my next class. Then the same teacher who wanted to out me had apparently told the science teacher about what I had done. Both of them told me to come over and the science teacher asked what’s wrong. I didn’t say anything, and at that moment she just hugged me and I started sobbing.

She led me to the empty classroom and sat me down along with the other teacher. They gave me a whole lecture about why I shouldn’t have taken it off and my parents are just protecting me, I shouldn’t try to get a boyfriend even though I said I didn’t want one. After the talk I just put my hijab back on and left, it was time to go home now.

At the beginning of the day I was full of hope, and at the end I just felt crushed. I was lucky that they didn’t tell my mom, but they’re watching me from now on so I just can’t do what I have been doing anymore. I don’t know what to do anymore, my double life has ended before I knew it, and I lost a good chunk of the confidence I had earlier.

Edit: this happened in a regular public school in the U.S. on December 18, 2019….

Update #2: I spoke with the principal. He said that it’s my choice how I dress as long as it abides by the dress code. He said if those teachers want to talk to my mother, they can talk to him about it, so I’m free to take off my hijab. I’m going to try to take it off again, I’ll update again if she tries anything.

Ilhan Omar has been much in evidence this past week — Dec. 14 to 20 — in Washington. During the impeachment hearings, when Congressman Kevin McCarthy, at the podium on December 18, quoted, as an example of the level of discourse to which some of his opponents had sunk, Rashida Tlaib’s call to “impeach the motherf—–,” Omar immediately began, and continued repeatedly, to scream out from the back of the chamber, “Stop it! Stop it!,” even though McCarthy had not repeated the phrase, but gone on to other matters. Apparently Ilhan Omar didn’t think that Congressman McCarthy had a right to remind the American people of the crudity to which Rashida Tlaib routinely sinks, and to protect her BFF, tried to shout down, in the House of Representatives itself, the freedom of speech of a fellow Congressman. McCarthy, of course, was not maligning Tlaib, only quoting her verbatim – but that was enough to spur Ilhan Omar into hysterical action.

In another example of Omar’s making her indelible mark in Washington, she joined 16 other Congressmen in a letter deploring the Trump Administration’s sanctions on Iran as “economic warfare.” But why is that wrong? That’s exactly what those sanctions are meant to be – “economic warfare” – in order to persuade the Iranians to modify their aggressive behavior, across the Middle East (in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon), and to slow down their pursuit of nuclear weapons. Why should the Trump Administration not be heartened by the effectiveness of those sanctions rather than, as Ilhan Omar and her 16 colleagues seem to think, be apologetic for their effect? The Administration’s reimposition of sanctions have reduced Iranian oil sales by 90%, from 2.46 mbd to .26 mbd. This has made it harder for the mullahcracy to continue to support the terrorist group Hezbollah in Lebanon; Hezbollah has had to greatly reduce salaries for its members as a result of Iran’s cutting of aid. Nor can Iran offer its previous level of financial support to the Shi’a militias in Iraq. The Iranian rial has sunk in value; Iran’s GDP has actually decreased, the price of gas has had to be increased to raise government revenues; Iran’s people have suffered – that’s exactly what economic sanctions are intended to do.The letter Ilhan signed claims that the sanctions have increased anti-American feeling in Iran. There is no evidence for this; the popular protests in Iran have been directed solely at the Iranian government itself, for its mismanagement, choice of spending priorities, and corruption. Ilhan Omar and her colleagues apparently want those sanctions, that are working so well, to be dramatically reduced, but they offer nothing to take their place. What alternative way to modify the Islamic Republic’s behavior would Ilhan Omar suggest? How would she prevent Iran from producing nuclear weapons? Or keep Iran from its foreign aggression?

The report on the letter Ilhan Omar signed is here:

In a letter issued on Tuesday to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, the lawmakers wrote that the hefty sanctions the US has imposed on the country was tantamount to “economic warfare.”

The sanctions put in place by this Administration against Iran are nothing less than economic warfare. After years of improving relations between the United States and Iran, the sanctions have devastated that country’s middle class, increased hostility toward the United States, and led to a humanitarian catastrophe. One dire effect has been an entirely preventable shortage of lifesaving medicine.

“This Administration must answer for their attacks on Iranians’ basic human right to affordable medicine,” Rep. Omar said in a statement.

The letter explains that while Iran manufactures 97% of its medicine domestically, the country relies on obtaining the rest through foreign imports.

First, Iran itself makes 97% of all the medicine it needs. That hardly suggests that there is a “humanitarian catastrophe” because of a lack of medicine, unless the remaining 3%, that must be imported, includes medicines that are absolutely critical to the survival of patients, and can be obtained nowhere else. We are not told what those medicines are that need to be imported. Nor is there evidence presented that those imports cannot be obtained from countries other than the U.S., including the U.K., France, Germany, Russia, and China. Ilhan Omar’s letter does not address these other potential sources for these imports. But finally, the main point of the letter – that there is a supposed “humanitarian catastrophe” because of that 3% of Iran’s medicines that the U.S. withholds – is fatally vitiated by the fact that the Department of the Treasury on October 25, 2019 announced a new “humanitarian mechanism” to allow medicine imports into Iran. That didn’t stop Ilhan Omar and her colleagues, nearly two months later, to send their letter to Secretary Mnuchin, ignoring the Treasury’s October 25 announcement. The signatories  didn’t want anyone to be confused with facts. Their minds were made up, that “economic warfare” against Iran is a Bad Thing, and they were willing to continue to complain about the withholding of medicine that, if it had ever occurred, now occurred no longer.

The third event of Ilhan Omar’s Washington week in review didn’t require her presence, but she was indispensable to the story. I am thinking of the proceedings in the divorce court, where Dr. Beth Jordan, the wife of her political consultant and lover Tim Mynett, obtained her final decree. The story is here:

It took all of fifteen minutes, but Rep. Ilhan Omar was slammed as an adulteress in a Washington, DC, divorce court on Dec. 19 as her political consultant/alleged lover formally split from his wife, a report said.

Dr. Beth Jordan accused the Minnesota Democrat of having an affair with her now-ex-husband, political consultant Tim Mynett, during a 16-minute hearing before a judge cut her off, the Daily Mail reported.

“I have a statement to make,” Jordan, 55, said, adding that Mynett “had an affair with Ilhan Omar.”

The allegation was first reported by The Post in August, when Jordan claimed in a divorce filing that Mynett confessed to the affair in a “shocking declaration of love” for Omar in April before ditching his wife.

Mynett, 38, a DC-based political consultant who has worked for Omar’s campaign, laughed and clapped his hands with glee as his left the court on Thursday but was tight-lipped when confronted by media.

So her lover “laughed and clapped his hands with glee.” He left his wife and his child for Ilhan Omar, the outspokenly anti-Israel antisemitic Congresswoman, who famously described 9/11 as a place where “some people did something,” who is in all kinds of trouble with the law for failing to correctly report her campaign contributions, and may or may not have married her brother in order to ensure that he could enter the U.S. and receive student loans.

As for Tim Mynett, his relationship with Omar has been disturbing in every sense. She has paid him, as a political consultant, between January and mid-October of 2019, a “consulting fee” of $310,000. That’s $34,444 a month. He must be a very good consultant. The unusually large amounts he has received from her campaign have raised questions, given Omar’s extramarital affair with him, that remain to be answered.

When Beth Jordan charged Ilhan Omar for being an “adulteress,” it seems not to have fazed Omar. Has she, the great Defender of Islam, forgotten what would happen were she living in a Muslim country such as Iran and Saudi Arabia, where the Sharia is fully enforced, and convicted of adultery? One hundred lashes, then death by lapidation. Does she approve? It would be nice if some reporter were to ask her that very question. Consistency is not her strong suit.

There has always been so much going on in Omar’s  busy life.

There’s still the question of her brother, as mentioned above.  Omar is credibly accused of marrying her brother, Nur Said Elmi, in order to commit immigration and student-loan fraud, and even filed fraudulent tax returns. While married to Elmi, she filed a joint return with another man, Ahmed Hirsi, to whom she was not married at the time.

She is also accused of using campaign money not for political purposes, but on personal travel with Tim Mynett. This is still being investigated by the FEC.

She has already been required by the Minnesota Campaign Board to reimburse her own campaign for money she spent on personal matters, including travel and lawyer’s fees, and to pay a fine as well.

There’s much for an intrepid investigative team to look into.

But just now, let’s limit ourselves to summing up Ilhan Omar’s Washington Week in Review.

She’s been accused of being an adulteress by the wife of her lover and “political consultant” Tim Mynett, to whom she has given unusually large sums from her campaign funds. On the floor of the House, she tried to drown out, by shouting “Stop It! Stop It!,” a Congressman trying to be heard – there is no “free speech” as far as Ilhan Omar is concerned — all because he did nothing more than repeat verbatim a crude remark by her ally and fellow Muslim, Rashida Tlaib. Finally, she signed a letter denouncing the Administration for its “economic warfare” against Iran, deploring the very thing that most of us agree has been a smashing success both in curbing Iranian aggression through proxies (Houthis, Hezbollah, Shi’a militias), and in weakening popular support in Iran for the monstrous regime in Tehran. She thus joined in deploring a supposed “humanitarian catastrophe” in Iran because, although that country produces domestically 97% of all the medicines it needs, that remaining 3% was, the letter falsely implied, cannot be obtained except from the U.S. But even if that were true, two months before Omar’s letter was sent, the Treasury had already announced that it was ending all sanctions on medicine for Iran. It was no longer an issue. But what do facts matter when it’s such fun to bash the Administration?

That was Ilhan Omar’s Washington Week In Review. Let’s hope there are not too many more such weeks featuring the deplorable Omar and her cast of characters – those two Somali husbands, one a possible brother, the consultant/ lover who may yet become her third husband – all part of her scandalous entourage. We can’t take too much more of this. Minnesotans, next November, you will be able to right this wrong. Don’t miss the chance. Do your stuff.

The Impeachment That Never Was [Can You Say Criminal Illegal Coup?]

/in , , , , , , /by

And the fake news media headlines get it wrong again, “Trump Impeached”, oops-NOT! With headline after headline to keep the public ill-informed, (and by some measures there is an estimated 30% of Americans who actually believe the President was impeached and even removed from office), the main stream media gets it wrong yet again. With crazy and unhinged Pelosi’s recent unconstitutional move of withholding the articles from the Senate, President Trump has not officially, constitutionally and factually been impeached. Pelosi is so frazzled it’s as though she is a clone that is malfunctioning. Clone? Chipped? Programmed? Feast your eyes on this and forward to 11:50 time marker. Pelsoi press conference.

I will get back on point in a moment. But have you ever noticed similar malfunctions in Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton? I mean Joe cant get a sentence out and suddenly mentions the word “roaches” completely non-sequitur to what he was talking about. And what he was talking about was how he loves children on his lap and something about the blonde hair on his legs etc. He has come out on stage standing with his back to the audience. He also cannot even name the state he is in and so much more. Then there was as you may recall, Hillary Clinton having what seemed to be a completely out of control rather lengthy spasm ( time marker 1:10). in addition to her legs giving out more often than not. Then there was the event at a rally she gave while running against Trump where she lost all control and a gentleman raced to the platform and looked Iike he inserted or injected or zapped her in the back with something. Don’t you find it odd, that these bizarre occurrences are only present in the democrat party? Talk about puppet masters! I let you think on that for a moment. Hum, makes one wonder what these malfunctions are.  Pelosi, Biden, Hillary, others, Cloned? Chipped? Programmed? We’ll leave that for another article and discussion. Back on point…

Can You Say Illegal Coup?

Those in the know, those awake, knew this from day one. I have written about this in real time. Yes this is in fact another treasonous illegal coup d’ etat. Consider this and this just scratches the surface.

  • Schiffs parody (lie)
  • No whistle blower and nothing to whistle blow
  • Transcripts released – case closed
  • Dems switch since caught right out of the gate – bribery, quid pro quo disappears from articles of impeachment
  • Entire process in the House unconstitutional in protocol
  • No due process afforded to the President or the Republicans – no lawyers-no witnesses
  • No evidence or facts for high crimes and misdemeanors – nor are they mentioned in the articles of impeachment
  • 100% partisan Dems only vote. Four Dems do not vote yeah for impeachment and one thus far defects and comes over to the Republican party
  • Not bi-partisan, Clock and a calendar sham – no impeachable offenses
  • Pelosi withholds and delays Senate hearings – thus presently not impeached not even by the house

Need I continue?

Will They Stop Here?

They will never stop until exposed and justice begins to be served.  This will take some years but we are progressing according to plan. Once we gain full control over the rigged deep state and shadow government systems etc., the acceleration of our success will continue. Meanwhile, the Deep State, the Dems. and other swamp creatures have contingency plan after contingency plan. Pelosi, the front mouthpiece for the Deep State on this  criminal coup, is buying time. Read and watch what Mike Adams has to report about this. Do you believe me now? Democrats actively rolling out scheme to remove VP Mike Pence so they can install Nancy Pelosi, then Hillary Clinton as President… the CRIMINAL COUP IS HERE.

What Others Are Saying (Repubs. and Dems.)

Dr. Alan Keyes

Jonathan Turley

Tom Fitton

Alan Dershowitz

Ken Starr

Mark Levin

Conclusion

Pelosi wants to negotiate how the Senate trial will be conducted. Excuse me Nancy, it is NOT up to the house nor the speaker it is solely up to the senate. If the articles are filed in the Senate – it is then that President Trump would have officially been impeached by the Democrats only and only in the House upon a procedure that violated the Constitution and denied rights that were afforded to the Senate and the President under the Constitution. This is the first ever in history, an all partisan, no High Crimes and Misdemeanors a US Impeachment with two articles presented that do not adhere to what are impeachable offenses per the Constitution.

This is why Democrat and Constitutional Scholar Jonathan Turley who told us under oath that he did not vote for Trump, and testified that there are no impeachable offenses and that the house Democrats that are violating the Constitution and obstructing justice.  Then there’s life long proud liberal Democrat Alan Dershowitz  who concurs with Turely.

Could these articles go straight to the Supreme Court and basically be expunged there? Will these fake phony and false articles of impeachment go to the Senate? Will there be a trial in the Senate or will it simply be dismissed due to the fraudulent nature of it? Will the Senate take a quick vote of which will overwhelmingly support the President thus DOA, no impeachment and removal?  We are weeks away from having these questions answered.

The Real Story – The News Behind The News

The REAL story is FISA, the Epstein intel, Julian Assange intel – NSA Data Collection – Giuliani’s files, (bye bye Biden and others) and then there is the on-going criminal investigation being conducted by Prosecutor John Durham against the deep state and its Democrat and other operatives. Let us not forget two important tings, all this FISA spying data implicates Obama and then there’s Hillary’s 33,0000 e-mails in the state department. Pain and justice is coming for the guilty in 2020 and beyond.

Yes this failed coup (yet another one) against this most popular (turn off fake news), and successful duly elected President has utterly failed. From Schiff’s onset with his parody and lies to the current state of affairs. Four dems did not vote for it. ZERO republicans voted.  The public opinion is not in favor for the deep state and the Dems. One Dem, (so far), has left the party and come over to Republicans. This may be a trend as 2020 plays out. Trump’s polls are up even higher than before the fake phony and false impeachment and the Dems as a result of all this BS are being seen for what they are and who they are actually serving, (hidden puppet masters) and thus they are losing ground in battleground states and with all the TRUE evidence and facts out on FISA and soon (late 2020) Durham’s criminal investigation, the Dems and deep state scum will be in real trouble. They already are and they know it. They are panicking and further insidious coups are already underway. Watch AG Barr on FOX.

But I say this, not only will it be a Trump landslide, both popular vote and electoral college in 2020 , but the Dems stand a VERY good chance of losing a majority in the House. People are waking up to the real world and waking up all over the world; Deep State-Deep Swamp, Fake News – Fed Res. CB system, Big Pharama, Pedophilia, false flags, “suicided’s” and so on and so on. This is why 36%-39% of the black community has come aboard as opposed to 18% in 2016. Many more Dems are moving over and by the time Durham and Barr begin to drop the hammer – far more will come aboard. The Democrat party has left the Dems. and they know it so they are coming over to join us.

Trump fills stadiums with ticket requests often exceeding 100,000 per event and stadiums filled with thousands while thousands remain outside watching the screens. Biden, (present front runner and I believe they will bring Clinton or Michelle out to “save the day” ), draws sometimes less than 100. There are more people on line at the ladies room at any given Trump rally than there are in total at any given Biden rally. Now there are your polls. Oh yeah, and nobody (outside of evil people and left wing lunatics) support infanticide, pedophilia and hardcore socialism.

Sign The Petition – Hallmark Shouldn’t Show LGBT ‘Marriages’ To Kids

/in , , , , , , /by

Another week, another corporation lost to the “woke” leftist crowd. This time it’s Hallmark’s (2.1) television station, which managed to alienate everyone in the culture wars by accepting a “wedding” ad featuring a lesbian couple…then rejecting the ad…then apologizing for rejecting the ad.

And all this just after the company bowed to activist pressure to feature LGBT propaganda in its movies.

Should we even be surprised at this point? Hallmark officially caved on marriage and religious liberty long ago– it just didn’t make it to the screen until 2019. Chick-fil-A, long considered a corporate bastion for social conservatives, bailed in spectacular fashion. And other corporations can’t get enough of bowing and scraping to the far-left crowd.

Conservatives love to blame leftists for how corporations cave to the new American values of “anything goes unless we say otherwise.” However, the real problem is who we see in the mirror – the people who have allowed the Left to dictate the culture war market.

It’s time for 2ndVote Americans – those who love God, traditional values, and our fellow men and women – to unashamedly show our values. We can start by signing the One Million Moms petition which urges Hallmark to return to being a family-friendly company.

Winning won’t be easy. Traditional Christian and American values are being overrun. 2ndVote Americans have two choices: be the coward Peter who abandoned Christ or be the Peter who bravely led the apostles to victory on Earth and in Heaven. Otherwise, we will find ourselves standing alone one day, wondering how a nation which once proclaimed God on its money now actively persecutes Him and His values.

Yes, it will be hard. Yes, we may lose friends and money. But the biblical martyrs and those who flee persecution in the Middle East have given up far more to gain the Glory of Heaven. We must do the same, for our souls and for the souls of those who without us will be lost here and on Earth.

Florida: Muslim who wrote about taking revenge on non-Muslims not charged with terrorism for sabotaging plane

/in , , , , , , /by

“Prosecutors said at his detention hearing in September that FBI investigators learned Alani lied about taking a trip to Iraq in March to visit his brother. They also found out he told a fellow American Airlines employee in June that his brother had been kidnapped and was a member of the extremist Islamic group known as ISIS. Prosecutors said Alani allowed the FBI to search his smartphone and agents found a ‘disturbing’ ISIS video in which a person was being shot in the head, and that he sent the video to someone with an Arabic message asking ‘Allah’ to take revenge against non-Muslims.”

Yet despite all that, “Alani was not charged with a terrorism-related offense.”

Apparently to have charged him with terrorism would have been “Islamophobic.”

“American Airlines mechanic pleads guilty to sabotaging plane at Miami International,” by Jay Weaver, Miami Herald, December 18, 2019:

An American Airlines mechanic accused of sabotaging a navigation system on a Miami flight with 150 passengers aboard pleaded guilty Wednesday to attempting to destroy the aircraft in a plea agreement designed to avoid a maximum sentence up to 20 years in prison.

“I do admit the guilt,” Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, 60, said through an Arabic interpreter in Miami federal court.

Alani, a veteran AA employee who had lived in California and commuted to his job at Miami International Airport, now faces up to three years in prison under a joint recommendation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office and his defense lawyer. His sentencing is set for March 4.

At his detention hearing in September after his arrest, federal prosecutors suggested that Alani may have possible links to a Middle East terrorist group, but that allegation never came up at his plea hearing before U.S. District Judge Marcia Cooke.

His defense attorney, Jonathan Meltz, made that point outside the courtroom when asked by reporters about the allegation. “This case is only about what you heard in court,” said Meltz, who added that his client “has been leading a law-abiding life for 30 years.”

After his arrest, Alani told federal investigators that he disabled the aircraft’s navigation system on the morning of July 17 because he was upset over stalled union contract negotiations with the airline. He said he wanted to generate some overtime for maintenance on the plane.

Alani also said that he meant no harm to anyone.

The Miami-Nassau flight was aborted before takeoff at Miami International Airport after an error alert appeared on the navigation system.

At Wednesday’s hearing, prosecutor Randy Hummel summarized the evidence against Alani, stressing that the AA flight’s navigation system was “deliberately obstructed” with foam by Alani and that the “aircraft was deemed not airworthy.”

Alani was accused of tampering with the plane’s so-called air data module, a system that reports aircraft speed, pitch and other critical flight data to pilots.

Alani was not charged with a terrorism-related offense. However, prosecutors said at his detention hearing in September that FBI investigators learned Alani lied about taking a trip to Iraq in March to visit his brother. They also found out he told a fellow American Airlines employee in June that his brother had been kidnapped and was a member of the extremist Islamic group known as ISIS.

Prosecutors said Alani allowed the FBI to search his smartphone and agents found a “disturbing” ISIS video in which a person was being shot in the head, and that he sent the video to someone with an Arabic message asking “Allah” to take revenge against non-Muslims. In addition, they said Alani sent $700 to someone in Iraq, where he was born and has family….
