Democrats threaten to hold up debt ceiling vote without DACA, health
insurance fixes

Demoocrats are prepared to offer our votes for the Harvey aid package, and
a short term debt limit increase of three months," House Minority Leader
Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.,
said in a statement. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite, File)

House and Senate Democrats said Wednesday they will not vote for a debt
ceiling increase longer than three months, threatening to derail a
long-term plan to raise the nation's borrowing limit by a Sept. 30 deadline
as well as an emergency federal funding package for Hurricane Harvey that
is to be linked to it.

Democrats are demanding their own wish list items in exchange for their
vote, which is needed due to conservative backlash over debt limit
increases.

House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., told the *Washington Examiner* the
Democrats' proposal for a three-month extension is "ridiculous and
disgraceful," and "unworkable."

He suggested the limit would be lifted for longer than three months. Ryan
condemned the move.

"To play politics with the debt ceiling like Schumer and Pelosi are
apparently doing, I don't think is a good idea," he said.

The Democrats' list includes legislation to legalize people brought to the
United States illegally as children, as well as federal funding to bolster
the failing Obamacare health insurance marketplace.

"Democrats are prepared to offer our votes for the Harvey aid package, and
a short term debt limit increase of three months," House Minority Leader
Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.,
said in a statement.

"Given Republican difficulty in finding the votes for their plan, we
believe this proposal offers a bipartisan path forward to ensure prompt
delivery of Harvey aid as well as avoiding a default, while both sides work
together to address government funding, DREAMers, and healthcare."

The House is scheduled to vote Wednesday on an $8 billion aid package for
Hurricane Harvey. The Senate will then add a debt ceiling bill to the
Harvey aid legislaiton and send it back to the House, which is expected to
take it up before Saturday, according to a House Appropriations Committee
aide.

But Republicans want a longer extension of the debt ceiling and will now be
forced to either give in to Democrats' demands or enter a standoff with the
minority as the debt ceiling deadline approaches on Sept. 30.

*Identification of Individuals by Trait Prediction Using Whole-genome
Sequencing Data*

Wed, 09/06/2017 - 10:00am

Examples of real (Left) and predicted (Right) faces from the Human
Longevity study predicting face and other physical traits from whole genome
sequencing data. (Credit: Human Longevity, Inc.)

Researchers from Human Longevity, Inc. (HLI) have published a study in
which individual faces and other physical traits were predicted using whole
genome sequencing data and machine learning. This work, from lead author
Christoph Lippert, Ph.D. and senior author J. Craig Venter, Ph.D., was
published in the journal *Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences* (
*PNAS*).

The authors believe that, while the study offers novel approaches for
forensics, the work has serious implications for data privacy,
deidentification and adequately informed consent. The team concludes that
much more public deliberation is needed as more and more genomes are
generated and placed in public databases.

For the IRB approved study, 1,061 ethnically diverse people ranging in age
from 18 to 82 participated by having their genomes sequenced to an average
depth of at least 30x. Researchers also collected phenotype data in the
form of 3-D facial images, voice samples, eye and skin color, age, height,
and weight.

The team predicted eye color, skin color and sex with high accuracy, but
other more complex genetic traits proved more difficult. The team believes
their predictive models are sound, but that large cohorts are needed to
make prediction more robust. The team also developed a machine learning
algorithm called a maximum entropy algorithm, which had novelty in that it
found an optimal combination of all predictive models to match whole-genome
sequencing data with phenotypic and demographic data and enabled the
correct identification of, on average, 8 out of 10 participants of diverse
ethnicity, and 5 out of 10 African American or European participants.

Venter, HLI's co-founder, executive chairman and head of scientific
strategy, commented, "We set out to do this study to prove that
your genome codes for everything that makes you, you. This is clearly a
proof of concept with a limited cohort but we believe that as we increase
the numbers of people in this study and in the HLI database to hundreds of
thousands we will be able to accurately predict all that can be predicted
from individuals' genomes."

He added, "We are also concerned that the public and the research community
at large are not adequately focused on the need for better safeguards and
policies for individual privacy in the genomics era and are urging more
analysis, better technical solutions, and continued discussion."

Lippert, data scientist at HLI, added, "This study shows the potential of
imaging technologies to screen the traits of large numbers of individuals.
Machine learning enables fully automated data interpretation and plays a
crucial role in scientific discovery."

Alexander's Column
The Antifa Movement — Coming to a Theater Near YouWhat is "antifa," and who
is backing and benefiting from its actions?

By *Mark Alexander* · September 6, 2017   [image: Print]


*"Let the American youth never forget, that they possess a noble
inheritance, bought by the toils, and sufferings, and blood of their
ancestors; and capacity, if wisely improved, and faithfully guarded, of
transmitting to their latest posterity all the substantial blessings of
life, the peaceful enjoyment of liberty, property, religion, and
independence." —Joseph Story (1833)*

[image: 2017-09-06-02ac6192_large.jpg]

Most Americans — those with jobs, families and community obligations and
responsibilities — had likely not heard of "antifa" before throngs of its
masked thugs initiated the riots in Charlottesville
 last month — though the "group"
played dominant roles in riots at Berkeley University in February and
Evergreen State College in June.

What, then, is antifa?

Correctly stated, it is a domestic derivative of "Antifaschistische
Aktion," the paramilitary wing of the 1930s communist movement in Germany.

Reemerging in the U.S. in the 1990s under Bill Clinton
, it has metastasized over the last
eight years under Barack Obama's 
regime into an autonomous collective of radical "useful idiots
."

The movement was invigorated by Obama's Marxist agenda
 and that of his socialist
bourgeoisie  cadres. It coalesced
around Obama's revolution-tested politics of disparity
, as instilled in him by his Marxist
mentors . Antifa is the current
manifestation of his repugnant Red October uprising
, "Occupy Wall Street," in the fall
of 2011.

Recall that Obama proclaimed to his Occupy cadres, "You are the reason I
ran for office."

This growing radical anarchist/socialist movement, also referred to as the
"alt-left," declares that it is anti-fascist — but this is Orwellian. In
truth, the movement bears strong resemblance to Hitler's brownshirt fascists
, whom they claim to oppose. As American
Enterprise Institute fellow Marc Thiessen aptly notes in a Washington Post
op-ed
:
"Yes, antifa is the moral equivalent of neo-Nazis. ... Both practice
violence and preach hate. They are morally indistinguishable. There is no
difference between those who beat innocent people in the name of the
ideology that gave us Hitler and Himmler and those who beat innocent people
in the name of the ideology that gave us Stalin and Dzerzhinsky."

Over the last eight years, the Occupy Wall Streeters and their kissin'
cousins, the so-called "Black Lives Matter
" cabal, have had a hand in every
urban-area  riot across America.
Like them, the antifa thugs typically organize protests using social media
accounts, websites and email blasts.

In 2016, the antifa movement was further energized by the socialist platform
 of Bernie Sanders
, until his presidential campaign
was bushwhacked  by the Democrat
National Committee and Hillary Clinton
.

Antifa is composed of mostly white adolescent agitators, violent
malcontents between 18 and 30 years of age, from about 200 autonomous
anarchist and anti-capitalist factions. Thus, it's not an overtly formal
organization — yet.

Who benefits from antifa propaganda and violence?

The lack of organization doesn't mean that no one is benefiting from
antifa's propaganda and violence. Indeed, the antifa movement has created a
fundraising windfall for leftists, particularly the Democrat Party
race-baiters  and the hate-hustling
profiteers at the Southern Poverty Law Center
.

These two money-grubbing organizations have generated an endless stream of
revenue beginning with their faux

BREAKING: Trump Comes Forward, Tells Truth Not Said In 78 Years

September 4, 2017 

(Christian News Alerts) – As the North Korean situation continues to
escalate with tensions higher than they have ever been in recent history,
Trump is letting the world know that history repeats itself; America isn’t
going to make the same mistakes that other nations have done in the past.

*In one of his famous tweets, Trump has said that, “South Korea is finding,
as I have told them, that their talk of appeasement with North Korea would
not work, they only understand one thing!” As Trump’s warnings about the
rogue nation have been accurate, the President’s critics should learn that
appeasement as a policy never works.*

South Korea is finding, as I have told them, that their talk of appeasement
with North Korea will not work, they only understand one thing!— Donald J.
Trump (@realDonaldTrump) 7:46 AM - Sep 3, 2017


The world has become an increasingly dangerous place, as North Korea
recently conducted the nation’s sixth nuclear test, and Kim Jong-un has
confirmed the validity of North Korea’s nuclear ascendancy. As South Korea
increases its military response to this situation, some people have felt
that a better solution is simply to bow down to North Korea’s demands.

After all, is an armed conflict really worth it?

History tends to repeat itself, and one man over 78 years ago made a
similar mistake regarding a rogue nation under the leadership of a
power-hungry leader. Neville Chamberlain, Prime Minister of Britain at the
time, felt that by appeasing Hitler’s Germany demands, he could achieve
lasting peace in Europe. It didn’t end up working as well as he thought.

Now history is coming back to haunt with a similar situation–a madman in
charge of his country with a lust for power, attention, and a nation
brainwashed into thinking that he is a great leader.

In truth, the US government has been acquiescing to the demands of this
family of tyrants for generations. Back in 1994, then President Clinton was
making his own preparations to confront North Korea. Former President and
self-appointed diplomat, Jimmy Carter traveled to the nation to offer a
deal. In exchange for two new nuclear reactions and a lump sum of $5
billion in aid, North Korea would give up its nuclear ambitions.

Of course, to no one’s surprise, North Korea violated their terms of the
agreement on their first day after the signing the deal. Ironically,
Clinton would say the deal marked “an end to the threat of nuclear
proliferation on the Korean Peninsula.” As for Carter, his appeasement
policy ended up winning him a Nobel Peace Prize.

And look where America is today. If previous administrations had simply
been willing to deal with the problem immediately, North Korea wouldn’t be
in a position to have ICBM capabilities that could threaten hundreds of
thousands of lives.

Yet somehow, some people think that this is a nation with which the US can
bargain–after breaking its word and violating an international agreement?

North Korea has, for decades, saber-rattled in an effort to coerce the
global powers–and especially the United States- -to provide aid and
stature. Do you think Kim Jong-un has overplayed his hand in his pursuit of
weapons of mass destruction?

In truth, the only way to deal with such a madman is through force. North
Korea now has a hydrogen bomb as well as ICBMs. Unlike other totalitarian
dictatorships America has had to deal with (the Soviet Union, for example),
the policy of Mutually-Assured Destruction only works as a mutual deterrent
if both sides are sane–a quality that the North Korean leader may very well
be lacking.

Unfortunately for Trump, because the previous administrations of recent
years–Clinton, Bush, and Obama–had decided to kick this can down the road,
this growing problem ended up on his plate. Thankfully, America couldn’t
have asked for a better president to handle the situation it now faces.

Bilderberg on Steroids – Meet The Secret CIA-Funded Group Behind The “War
on Terror”

September 6, 2017

http://tinyurl.com/ybgkl8nc



*[image: Description:
http://www.activistpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/cercle.jpg]*
By Rachel
Blevins 

Bilderberg has gained a reputation as the world’s most secretive group of
billionaires and political leaders who conspire to impact global events—but
reports indicate that they don’t hold a candle to another group that
includes a host of war criminals responsible for the “War on Terror.”

The group is named *Le Cercle*. In a report
 dated Sept. 13, 1982,
the German publication* Der Spiegel* describes it as a “legal cartel” made
up of “loyal Bundesnachrichtendienst agents, foreign intelligence agents,
reactionary politicians and ultra-right journalists” who played a crucial
role in the 1980 election.

The existence of the group was revealed by Bavarian constitutional
protector Hans Langemann. According to the report, he described the group
as:

“In the case of CERCLE, which is clearly defamatory,” as far as my earlier
knowledge of the BND “and my present knowledge are concerned, a “loose”
“concentration “about two times a year and at various” places of
conservative- anti-Communist politician,” “publicists, bankers, and VIPs of
other professions,” “which originated in the former French Prime Minister
Antoine PINAY, and the circle to which guests are invited continues to this
day.”

Former U.S. Defense Secretary and President of the World Bank *Paul
Wolfowitz*, former Iraqi Coalition Provisional Authority Leader *Paul
Bremer*, former Secretary of Defense *Donald Rumsfeld* and former Chairman
of the Defense Department’s Defense Policy Board Richard Perle—some of the
most notable neoconservative architects of the Iraq War—are all reportedly
members.

Other reported American members of Le Cercle include former U.S. Secretary
of State *Henry Kissinger*, former Directors of Central Intelligence *Bill
Casey* and *William Colby,* and former President *Richard Nixon* after he
left the White House.

In a report

from *The Independent* dated June 28, 1997, the “*exclusive think-tank said
to be funded by the CIA*” is mentioned because its chairman at the time,
former Member of Parliament Jonathan Aitken, was reportedly going to be
removed over a libel trial that ultimately sent him to prison for perjury.

Accusations that Le Cercle receives funding from the CIA have been made by
Robin Ramsay, editor of Lobster Magazine; and by John E Lewis, author

of *The Mammoth Book of Cover-Ups*

.

As the report noted, “the group’s existence is only occasionally disclosed”
following its creation in the 1950s:

Cercle was intended to cement Franco-German relations, as a buffer to
Soviet aggression during the Cold War. Down the years, however, it has
become much more, advocating right-wing causes round the world and growing
into a confidential talking shop for about 70 politicians, businessmen,
polemicists and personnel from the diplomatic and security services.
Members are invited to attend its meetings; they cannot ask to be admitted,
and as a condition of attending they agree to keep all sessions secret. It
meets twice a year, once in Washington DC in the autumn and once in the
early part of the year in an ‘overseas’ venue.

*The Independent* described senior member Brian Crozier as an “author and
well-known Cold-Warrior with close ties to MI6 and the CIA” who wrote a
“planning paper” for Le Cercle in 1979. In addition to securing changes of
government in Germany and the United Kingdom (where Margaret Thatcher
became Prime Minister in 1979), the agenda included objectives such as:

   - “Undercover financial transactions for political aims”
   - “International campaigns aiming to discredit hostile personalities or
   events”
   - “Creation of a (private) intelligence service specializing in a
   selective point of view”
   - “Establishment of offices under suitable cover each run by a
   coordinator from the central office. Current plans cover London,
   Washington, Paris, Munich and Madrid”

In a report

on the history of Le Cercle, British news source *True Publica* noted that
the 1982 Langemann Papers
 were
“the first significant leak to expose the activities of Le Cercle,

Alert! 40 Percent Of Americans Now ‘Prefer Socialism To Capitalism’


Posted: 04 Sep 2017 04:37 PM PDT

Americans
are increasingly embracing socialism, and this is particularly true for
young adults under the age of 30. As you will see below, four out of every
ten Americans now prefer socialism to capitalism, and if current trends
continue it is just a matter of time before those that prefer socialism are
in the majority. Of course our society has already been very heavily
socialized. We have been trained to believe that if a problem exists, then
it is the job of government to fix it, and over time government on all
levels of our system has just gotten bigger and bigger. But what most
Americans don’t realize is that the United States never would have become
an economic powerhouse without free market capitalism, and the further that
we drift away from our roots the deeper that our economic problems will
become. We need leaders that are willing to stand up and proudly declare
that free market capitalism works incredibly well when the shackles are
taken off, and that is precisely what I intend to do
.

Not too long ago, a survey of U.S. adults was conducted by the American
Culture and Faith Institute, and the most disturbing thing that was
discovered was that 40 percent

of all Americans now “prefer socialism to capitalism”…

*“The most alarming result, according to [George] Barna, was that four out
of every ten adults say they prefer socialism to capitalism,”* the ACFI
noted in its commentary on the poll. “That is a large minority,” Barna
said, “and it includes a majority of the liberals — who will be pushing for
a completely different economic model to dominate our nation. That is the
stuff of civil wars. It ought to set off alarm bells among more
traditionally-oriented leaders across the nation.’” That 40 percent of
Americans now prefer socialism to capitalism could spell major change to
the policies advanced by legislators and political leaders and to the
interpretations of judges ruling on the application of new and pre-existing
laws.

So what happens when that figure rises above 50 percent?

Are we going to go down the exact same road that Europe has gone?

And support for socialism is particularly high among our young people. A
Gallup poll conducted in 2016 found that an astounding 55 percent

of Americans under the age of 30 “have a positive view of socialism”. Also,
a Harvard University study that was reported on by the Washington Post

discovered that 51 percent of U.S. adults under the age of 30 “do not
support capitalism”.

These numbers help to explain why politicians such as Bernie Sanders and
Elizabeth Warren have such high levels of support among Millennials. These
young people were raised in schools that taught them that we have a “free
market system” in America today, even though that is not really true at
all. And as economic conditions deteriorate, millions of these young people
are becoming disillusioned. The following comes from an extraordinary piece
that was published by Business Insider

…

Wages are stagnant or falling
.
The costs of health care, child care, and tuition continue to rise
exponentially
.
Full-time jobs turn into contract positions while benefits are slashed.
Middle-class jobs are replaced

with low-paying service work. The expectations of American life your
parents had when you were born — that a “long boom”
 will bring about unparalleled
prosperity — crumble away.

Baby boomers tell you there is a way out: a college education has always
been the key to a good job. But that doesn’t seem to happen anymore. The
college graduates you know are drowning in student debt

Confederate General Stonewall Jackson (DoD Photo/Sgt. 1st Class Raymond J.
Piper/Soldiers Live)

Many blacks and their white liberal allies demand the removal of statues of
Confederate generals and the Confederate battle flag, and they are working
up steam to destroy the images of Gens. Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee
and President Jefferson Davis from Stone Mountain in Georgia. Allow me to
speculate as to the whys of this statue removal craze, which we might call
statucide.

To understand it, we need a review of the promises black and white liberals
have been making for decades. In 1940, the black poverty rate was 87
percent. By 1960, it had fallen to 47 percent. During that interval, blacks
were politically impotent. There were no anti-poverty programs or
affirmative action programs. Nonetheless, this poverty reduction exceeded
that in any other 20-year interval. But the black leadership argued that
more was necessary. They said that broad advancement could not be made
unless blacks gained political power.

Fifty years ago, there were fewer than 1,000 black elected officials
nationwide. According to the Joint Center for Political and Economic
Studies, by 2011 there were roughly 10,500 black elected officials, not to
mention a black president. But what were the fruits of greater political
power? The greatest black poverty, poorest education, highest crime rates
and greatest family instability are in cities such as Detroit, St. Louis,
Oakland, Memphis, Birmingham, Atlanta, Baltimore, Cleveland, Philadelphia
and Buffalo. The most common characteristic of these predominantly black
cities is that for decades, all of them have been run by Democratic and
presumably liberal politicians. Plus, in most cases, blacks have been
mayors, chiefs of police, school superintendents and principals and have
dominated city councils.

During the 1960s, black and white liberals called for more money to be
spent on anti-poverty programs. Since the Lyndon Johnson administration's
War on Poverty programs, U.S. taxpayers have forked over $22 trillion for
anti-poverty programs. Adjusted for inflation, that's three times the cost
of all U.S. military wars since the American Revolution. Despite that
spending, the socio-economic condition for many blacks has worsened. In
1940, 86 percent of black children were born inside marriage, and the black
illegitimacy rate was about 15 percent. Today, only 35 percent of black
children are born inside marriage, and the illegitimacy rate hovers around
75 percent.

The visions of black civil rights leaders and their white liberal allies
didn't quite pan out. Greater political power and massive anti-poverty
spending produced little. The failure of political power and the failure of
massive welfare spending to produce nirvana led to the expectation that if
only there were a black president, everything would become better for
blacks. I cannot think of a single black socio-economic statistic that
improved during the two terms of the Barack Obama administration. Some have
become tragically worse, such as the black homicide victimization rate. For
example, on average in Chicago, one person is shot every two hours, 15
minutes, and a person is murdered every 12 1/2 hours.

*Ad Feedback
*

So more political power hasn't worked. Massive poverty spending hasn't
worked. Electing a black president hasn't worked. What should black leaders
and their white liberal allies now turn their attention to in order to
improve the socio-economic condition for blacks? It appears to be nearly
unanimous that attention should be turned to the removal of Confederate
statues. It's not only Confederate statue removal but Confederate names of
schools and streets. Even the Council on American-Islamic Relations agrees.
It just passed a resolution calling for the removal of all Confederate
memorials, flags, street names and symbols from public spaces and property.

By the way, does the statue of Union Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman qualify
for removal? He once explained his reluctance to enlist former slaves,
writing, "I am honest in my belief that it is not fair to our men to count
negroes as equals ... (but) is not a negro as good as a white man to

BLACKLIST
The Left’s latest war on free speech.

September 4, 2017



*Daniel Greenfield*

Share to FacebookShare to TwitterShare to More*107*Share to Print

*Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is
an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical left and
Islamic terrorism.*

Blacklists are ugly things. They’re how you terrorize and intimidate
people. They’re a weapon of hate. And *Color of Change*
, an
extremist group, is using blacklists to smear all conservatives as racists.

Color of Change, the organization founded by Van Jones, a 9/11 Truther and
former *Communist*
,
has *circulated a blacklist to*

PayPal,
Discover, Visa, Master Card and American Express that falsely and
libelously groups together a black Harlem church, the David Horowitz
Freedom Center, an ex-Muslim organization, Jihad Watch and others as “white
supremacists” alongside actual Neo-Nazis.

But Color of Change’s definition of “white supremacist” is Republican.

“We must hold every enabler of #Trump accountable,” Color of Change boss
Rashad Robinson *had tweeted*
. “#Enablers
of white supremacist & nazi sympathizers are not neutral, they are
complicit.”

In another Tweet, he laid out his real agenda for bringing down Trump.
“Continuing to ensure there are consequences for #enablers - corporate,
political and cultural - is critical to forcing him out. Isolate him!”

The Color of Change blacklists aimed at President Trump’s corporate council
members and his grass roots supporters are part of the same partisan plot
to use false accusations of white supremacy to intimidate corporations into
silencing his supporters and forcing him out of office.

“There are no sidelines,” Color of Change declared before Trump’s
inauguration. Any politicians or executives who worked *with him were*

traitors.
“For those in power—whether in government or in corporations—who choose to
enable Trump’s plot against our country, we must be just as uncompromising.”

The blacklist is Color of Change’s weapon in its “uncompromising” war
against democracy.

Color of Change has a long history of targeting corporations with pressure
campaigns based around false accusations of racism in order to silence
supporters of the Republican Party and punish critics of the Democrat
Party.

When Glenn Beck expressed his disapproval of Obama, Color of Change warned
his advertisers that if they didn’t pull their ads, they would be “publicly
associated with his racism”. A more recent campaign targeting Bill O’Reilly
also accused him of racism. Neither Beck nor O’Reilly are racists, but
Color of Change uses false accusations of racism to intimidate corporations
into silencing its political opponents.

When McCain campaigned for the White House, Color of Change accused him of
allowing his supporters to shout, “Kill him” at Obama. When Romney ran
against Obama, Rashad Robinson *accused him*

of
"appealing to the basest racisim [sic]." Rashad and COC’s smears have
remained dishonestly consistent.

Color of Change used the same tactic when going after ALEC, a pro-business
group targeted by leftist activists over its opposition to government
regulation. Corporate members of ALEC were warned, “either stop funding
ALEC, or become widely known as a company dismantling the gains of the
civil rights movement. “

Behind Color of Change’s racism smears are rich white leftists. Its money
comes from George Soros, Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz, the Ford
Foundation and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. Behind its posturing about
“white supremacy” are the usual targets, FOX News, ALEC, the Republican
Party and conservative activist groups, which the left has always plotted
to destroy in its quest for total power.

Hitting corporations with racism smears is just how the left’s
racism-smearing subdivision goes about it.

What is ugly about Color of Change and the leftist billionaires and billion
dollar groups behind it is that they aren’t arguing, instead they’re
blacklisting. Their blacklist seeks to enlist corporations to police and
monitor speech, to punish political opposition and to even force out the
President of the United States.

Instead of recognizing that Color of Change’s blacklist is demonstrably
flawed, that it contains numerous inaccuracies ranging from the inclusion
of

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Conundrum

2017-09-05 Thread Travis
Conundrum...

"A gun is like a parachute.  If you need one, and don't have one. You'll
probably never need one again."



The definition of the word Conundrum is: something that is puzzling or
confusing.




*Here are six Conundrums of Socialism in the United States of America :*

1.  America is capitalist and greedy - yet half of the population is
subsidized.

2. Half of the population is subsidized - yet they think they are victims.

3. They think they are victims - yet their representatives run the
government.

4. Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keep getting
poorer.

5. The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things that people in other
Countries only dream about.

6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about, yet
they want America to be more like those other countries.


Think about it!  And that, my friends, pretty much sums up the USA in the
21st Century.


Makes you wonder who is doing the math.  By the way


1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few
lunatics, But we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a
few lunatics.
  Funny how that works.  And here's another one worth considering...


 2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out
of money.  But we never hear about welfare or food stamps running out of
money?  What's interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but
the second didn't.
  Think about it.

  Am I the only one missing something?



*"Progressives are like glow-sticks.*

*  Sometimes I want to snap them and*

*  shake them till the "light" comes on!"*

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Obama critic Charlie Daniels says Barack right about 1 thing

2017-09-05 Thread Travis
*Obama critic Charlie Daniels says Barack right about 1 thing *

Posted By *Bob Unruh* On 09/03/2017





Longtime Barack Obama critic Charlie Daniels says the ex-president was
right about one thing:

“They do cling to their God,” he writes in his most recent Soap Box
commentary  posted online.

“The guns are not clung to, but you can bet they’re around.”

Daniels was referencing Obama’s comment during the 2008 presidential race,
when he was criticizing Americans who live in “old industry towns decimated
by job losses.”

Obama said, “They [Americans] get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or
antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or
anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

In the Soap Box by the hall of fame country-rock musical artist, who at
more than 80 years old still carries a full load of touring and recording
duties, he talks about bringing out the best in America.

He talked about friends who are “loading pickup trucks with water and other
basics and heading out for Texas to help” in the wake of Hurricane Harvey’s
decimating 50 inches of rain and damaging winds.

“It’s not that they know anybody there or that they’ve been called to come
help out, it’s just that they see a great need and they want to lend a
hand,” he writes. “If we were able to look at all the license plates on all
the boat trailers of the people helping rescue those stranded by water in
the Houston area, we would find that they are from all over the country,
people, who for no other reason than they were moved by families on porches
and roof tops threatened by rising water with no escape unless somebody in
a boat shows up.”

He charges the media proves their shallowness by trying to turn a tragedy
into a political football.

Meanwhile, “real Americans are on the scene actually doing something about
it and, as always, Christian relief organizations, usually rigorously
ignored by main stream media, are on site, supplying food and solace to
people who have lost everything they have.”

Texas will rebuild, he assured readers.

“Sometimes we get the opinion that perhaps the days of good neighbors, good
Samaritans and good patriots have come and gone, but those traits lie just
below the surface in the majority of Americans and it only takes something
like the events in Texas to activate them.”

He said, “When we get our opinions from the doom and gloom the media brings
into our homes every day, we could well get the idea that the majority of
Americans are apathetic, lazy, greedy and insensitive. But that is not the
America I know, there is still an America out here that is rarely glimpsed
on network news, an America of hard working patriots who can still get a
mist in their eyes when ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ is played and have no
patience with athletes who don’t respect the nation that made them
millionaires enough to stand up for it.”

Just a few weeks ago,

he called out the extremists on both ends of the political spectrum for
endangering Americans’ lives.

“Basically what we are seeing in the streets of America doesn’t resemble
mostly peaceful civil rights marches as much as it resembles anarchy, pure
and simple, aided by milksop politicians who so fear they might lose a
vote, they allow part of the population to run all over the rest of the
population, claiming to act in the name of freedom of speech, while half of
the free speech in the affected cities is being drowned out by shrill,
fanatical voices and the deafening silence of any media to tell their side
of the story,” he wrote.

He said the radicals are taking all the oxygen out of the coverage,
referring to the KKK and other white supremacists, and the anti-Trump
“antifa” and their far-left cohorts.

He also recently warned
 America just
might not make it.

He pointed out that the division between the far-right side and the
progressive leftists is deeper, wider and more unbridgeable than ever.

“The Bible says that a house divided cannot stand. Draw your own
conclusions.”

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Terror Checklist

2017-09-04 Thread Travis
*Terror Checklist*
--

So far the response to the jihadi terror campaign in Europe has shown up a
consistent set of responses. These can form a useful focus for whether
attitudes are changing significantly in the aftermath of the next attack
and the others that seem inevitable to follow. ACG opinion always polarise
rapidly on this subject so there is not a lot of value in arguing what
should happen as few people want to change their position. The more
important feature is whether big shifts in public opinion or the actions of
politicians can be detected.

1) The focus is on superficial or tactical features such what the security
services could have done better. Politicians and the media have no interest
in exploring the root causes, such as the size of the Muslim population or
the attitudes they hold.

2) Statements by politicians are essentially rhetoric, focused on 'values'
and no practical solutions are proposed.

3) Social liberals lead the public response. The focus is on 'unity' vigils
and lighting up of public buildings but then almost a carnival atmosphere
of positivity about how strong multiculturalism is. This is the 'good' and
'correct' response as viewed by the media and politicians.

4) Any protest movement is given much less or no media publicity. If it is
covered at all, it is a rally of alt-right Nazi's. Any protest movement is
'bad' and the 'wrong' response by the forces of evil that 'seek to divide
us'.

5) The police begin an immediate focus on 'hate crime', saying or writing
anything considered too negative about the Muslim community. The media are
on high alert and report events down to things said in the school
playground. The focus is on how terrible things are for the Muslim
community rather than how exposed the rest of the population is to further
attacks.

6) the Muslim community themselves offer limited or no protest against the
attack, in stark contrast to the mobilisation seen over attacks on Muslims
in Gaza etc. The main message is that the community is a victim of
Islamophobia and holds no responsibility for the attack.

These are the common features so far and can be used to check if society is
shifting or sticking with the same cultural response to jihadi attacks.

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] EVIL OBAMITES LURKING IN THE SHADOWS...

2017-09-03 Thread Travis
 I do not understand how living in a country with its democracy established
over 200 years ago, and now, for the first time in history, suddenly we
have one of our former presidents set up a group called "Organizing for
Action" - (OFA).



OFA - 30,000 strong working to disrupt everything that our current
president is trying to do.  This goes against our Democracy, it is an
operation that will destroy our way of governing.  It goes against our
Constitution, our laws, and the processes established over 200 years ago.
If this is allowed to proceed then we will be living in chaos very much
like third world countries are run.  What good is it to have an established
government if it is not going to be respected and allowed to follow our
laws?  If this does not scare you, then we are in worse trouble than you
know.



It is explained below.  Do your part:  read it and at least pass this on so
others will know what we are up against.  We are losing our country and we
are so compliant.  We are becoming a "PERFECT TARGET" for our enemy!
Article from the New York Post - If you had an army some 30,000 strong and
a court system stacked over the decades with judges who would allow you to
break the laws, how much damage could you do to a country?  We are about to
find out in America !



The ex-president said he was going to stay involved through community
organizing and speak out on the issues and that appears to be one
post-administration promise he intends to keep.  He has moved many of his
administration's top dogs over to an organization called Organizing for
Action (OFA).  OFA is behind the strategic and tactical implementation of
the resistance we are seeing across America , and politically active courts
are providing the leverage for this revolution.



OFA is dedicated to organizing communities for "progressive" change.
Issues are gun control, socialist healthcare, abortion, sexual equality,
climate change, and of course, immigration reform.  OFA members were
propped up by the ex-president's message from the shadows:  "*Organizing is
the building block of everything great we've accomplished.  Organizers
around the country are fighting for change in their communities - and OFA
is one of the groups on the front lines.  Commit to this work in 2016 and
bey*ond."



OFA's website says it obtained its "digital" assets from the ex-president's
re-election effort and that he inspired the movement.  In short, it's the
shadow government organization aimed at resisting and tearing down the
Constitutional Republic - AMERICA



Paul Sperry, writing for the New York Post, says OFA will fight President
Donald Trump at every turn of his presidency and the ex-president "will
command them from a bunker less than two miles from the White House."
Sperry writes that the ex-president is setting up a shadow government to
sabotage the incoming administration through a network of non-profits led
by OFA, which is growing its war chest (more than $40 million) and has some
250 offices nationwide.  OFA IRS filings, according to Sperry, indicate OFA
has 32,525 volunteers nationwide.  The ex-president and his wife will
oversee the operation from their home/ office near the White House.



Think about how this work - for example:  Trump issues an immigration
executive order; OFA signals for protests and statements from pro-immigrant
groups; ACLU lawyers file lawsuits in jurisdictions where activist judges
obstruct the laws; volunteers are called to protest at airports and
Congressional town hall meetings; the leftist media springs to action; the
twitter sphere lights up with social media; violence follows - all
emanating from the ex-president's signal that he is heartened by the
protests.



If Barack Obama did not do enough to destroy this country in the 8 years he
was in office, it appears his future plans are to destroy the foundation on
which this country has operated on for the last 241 years.



*Please pass this to everyone on your email list.  Don't believe it, Google
it, very scary!*

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] The American Man

2017-09-03 Thread Travis
*The American Man Let this sink in for a minuteHundreds and hundreds of
small boats pulled by countless pickups and SUVs from across the South are
headed for South Texas.  Almost all of them driven by men.  They're using
their own property, sacrificing their own time, spending their own money,
and risking their own lives for one reason: to help total strangers in
desperate need.Most of them are by themselves.  Most are dressed like the
redneck duck hunters and bass fisherman they are.  Many are veterans.Most
are wearing well-used hats, t-shirts, and jeans; and there's a
preponderance of camo.  Most are probably gun owners, and most probably
voted for Trump.These are the people the Left loves to hate, the ones
Maddow mocks.  The ones Maher and Olbermann just *know*they're so much
better than.These are The Quiet Ones.  They don't wear masks and tear down
statues.  They don't, as a rule, march and demonstrate.And most have
probably never been in a Whole Foods store in their life.But they'll spend
the next several days wading in cold, dirty water; dodging gators and water
moccasins and fire ants; eating whatever meager rations are available; and
sleeping wherever they can in dirty, damp clothes.  Their reward is the
tears and the hugs and the smiles from the terrified people they help.
They'll deliver one boatload, and then go back for more.When disaster
strikes, it's what men do.  Real men.  Heroic men.  American men.  And then
they'll knock back a few shots, or a few beers with like-minded men they've
never met before, and talk about fish, ten-point bucks, hollow-point ammo,
or women.And the next time they hear someone talk about "the patriarchy",
or "male privilege", they'll snort, turn off the TV and go to bed.In the
meantime, they'll likely be up again before dawn.  To do it again.  Until
the helpless are rescued.  And the work's done.They're unlikely to be
reimbursed or even remembered.  There won't be medals.  They don't care.
They're heroes.  And it's what they do.  It's what they've always done.  .

*Google goes after critics*

September 2, 2017 By Zephyr Teachout

[image: Google has established a pattern of lobbying and]Google has
established a pattern of lobbying and threatening to acquire power.
(Credit: AFP/GETTY IMAGES / JOHN MACDOUGALL)

About 10 years ago, Tim Wu, the Columbia University Law professor who
coined the term network neutrality, made this prescient comment: “To love
Google, you have to be a little bit of a monarchist, you have to have faith
in the way people traditionally felt about the king.”

Wu was right. And now, Google has established a pattern of lobbying and
threatening to acquire power. It has reached a dangerous point common to
many monarchs: The moment where it no longer wants to allow dissent.

This summer, a small team of well-respected researchers and journalists,
the Open Markets team at the New America think tank (where I have been a
fellow since 2014), dared to speak up about Google, in the mildest way.
When the European Union fined Google for preferring its own subsidiary
companies to its rival companies in search results, it was natural that
Open Markets, a group dedicated to studying and exposing distortions in
markets, including monopoly power, would comment. The researchers put out a
150-word statement praising the E.U.’s actions. They wrote, “By requiring
that Google give equal treatment to rival services instead of privileging
its own, is protecting the free flow of information and commerce upon which
all democracies depend.”

They called upon the Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice and
state attorneys general to apply the traditional American monopoly law,
which would require separate ownership of products and services and the
networks that sell products and services.

Google has been funding New America for years at high levels. Within 24
hours of the statement going live, Google representatives called New
America’s leadership expressing their displeasure. Two planned hires for
the Open Markets team suddenly were canceled. Three days later, the head of
the Open Markets team, the accomplished journalist Barry Lynn, received a
letter from the head of the think tank, demanding that the entire team
leave New America. The reason? The statement praising the EU’s decision
against Google was, according to New America President Anne-Marie
Slaughter, “imperiling the institution.” (As of this writing, Slaughter has
denounced the story as false, claiming that Lynn was dismissed for failures
of “openness” and “collegiality.”)

When Google was founded in 1998, it famously committed itself to the motto:
“Don’t be evil.” It appears that Google may have lost sight of what being
evil means, in the way that most monarchs do: Once you reach a pinnacle of
power, you start to believe that any threats to your authority are
themselves villainous and that you are entitled to shut down dissent. As
Lord Acton famously said, “Despotic power is always accompanied by
corruption of morality.” Those with too much power cannot help but be evil.
Google, the company dedicated to free expression, has chosen to silence
opposition, apparently without any sense of irony.

Google did not always operate this way in relation to think tanks, even
those it funded. The head of Google’s parent company, Eric Schmidt, served
on the board of New America starting 2000 and was chairman from 2008
through May 2016. The Open Markets institute has long studied excessive
corporate power and argued for the importance of antimonopoly laws. They
were not previously punished for their work.

But in recent years, Google has become greedy about owning not just search
capacities, video and maps, but also the shape of public discourse. As The
Wall Street Journal recently reported, Google has recruited and cultivated
law professors who support its views. And as The New York Times recently
reported, it has become invested in building curriculum for our public
schools, and has created political strategy to get schools to adopt its
products.

This year, Google is on track to spend more money than any company in
America on lobbying. In 2015, it was the third biggest corporate spender,
paying more than Exxon Mobil, Lockheed Martin or the Koch brothers on
lobbying. Much of what it is spending its money on has nothing to do with
technical details regarding its search engine and everything to do with
using its power in its search engine to shut out some competitors and build
power over others.

It is time to call out Google for what it is: a monopolist in search,
video, maps and browser, and a thin-skinned tyrant when it comes to ideas.

The imperial overreach of Google in trying to shut down a group of five
researchers proves the point that the initial release from Open Markets was
trying to make: When companies get too much power, they become a threat to
democratic free speech and to the

2017-09-03 Thread Travis
September 3, 2017
A Clash of Cultures: The Bourgeois vs. the Burning Man

By Trevor Thomas 

It seems that University of Pennsylvania law professor Amy Wax – who took
her own turn

melting
the snowflakes at Middlebury College

a
few years ago – again has liberals in a lather.  On August 9 of this year,
professor Wax, along with law professor Larry Alexander – currently the
Warren distinguished professor of law at the University of San Diego – penned
an op-ed

in
the Philadelphia Inquirer lamenting the breakdown of our nation's
"bourgeois culture."

If you're like me and need a primer on exactly what a "bourgeois culture"
is, according to Wax and Alexander, the "script" of America's bourgeois
culture declares the following:

Get married before you have children and strive to stay married for their
sake. Get the education you need for gainful employment, work hard, and
avoid idleness.  Go the extra mile for your employer or client.  Be a
patriot, ready to serve the country.  Be neighborly, civic-minded, and
charitable.  Avoid coarse language in public.  Be respectful of authority.
Eschew substance abuse and crime.

Shocking behavior, right?  And imagine that: I've been steeped in the
"bourgeois culture" most of my life and never knew it!  In addition to
pointing out what is bourgeois culture, the good professors also note that
the collapse of America's bourgeois culture has led to many undesirable
outcomes, including the following:

Too few Americans are qualified for the jobs available.  Male working-age
labor force participation is at Depression-era lows.  Opioid abuse is
widespread.  Homicidal violence plagues inner cities.  Almost half of all
children are born out of wedlock, and even more are raised by single
mothers.  Many college students lack basic skills, and high school students
rank below those from two dozen other countries.

Virtually no one should be surprised by these outcomes.  Conservatives
across the political spectrum have been pointing to such – along with
additional sad, sorry, rotten fruits
 of
liberalism

– for decades.  Nevertheless, if you have an inkling of an understanding of
modern liberalism, you don't have to think too hard to imagine the outrage
from the left directed at the two law professors.  In their "Statement
about the Wax Op-Ed ," the
University of Pennsylvania (UPenn)'s graduate student union, "GET-UP," –
condemned "in the strongest possible terms" Wax's and Alexander's "toxic
racist, sexist, homophobic" conclusions.

A couple of weeks after "the Wax op-ed," the UPenn school newspaper,
the Daily Pennsylvanian, ran a letter

from
a group of 54 UPenn doctoral students and alumni.  The letter went so far
as to imply that Wax and Alexander – attired in their "appropriately
respectable (white) diction and dress" – are white supremacists, and even
attempted to link the Wax op-ed to the recent events in Charlottesville,
Va.  Imagine that.  Sexual responsibility, marriage, hard work, education,
respect for authority, and patriotism are "racist."

To further liberal angst, in a follow-up interview with the Daily
Pennsylvanian the day after her op-ed ran, professor Wax doubled down in
her defense of the bourgeois culture.  Declaring Anglo-Protestant cultural
norms superior, Wax told the student paper, "I don't shrink from the word
'superior.'"  She added, "Everyone wants to come to the countries that
exemplify" these values.  "Everyone wants to go to countries ruled by white
Europeans."  Furthermore, Wax made it clear – because when talking to
liberals, one must always make this clear – that she was not implying the
superiority of whites.  "Bourgeois values aren't just for white people."

In other words, as the professors' original piece concluded, "all cultures
are not equal."  This is like saying "all pizzas are not equal," but such a
conclusion flies in the face of the multiculturalism preached by the modern
left.  And all cultures are not equal because all *values* are not equal.

Let me make clear something that professor Wax's "Anglo-Protestant" comment
implies: America's "bourgeois values" are superior because they are,
essentially, Christian values.  Thus, a bourgeois culture is superior
because it is essentially a Christian culture, and that ultimately is why
the left attacked Wax's and Alexander's piece.  As *The Miracle and
Magnificence of America*

which can be anything from meat and chicken to non-food products. Stores
pay a premium for halal-certification with a portion of that "tax" going to
fund terrorism.

Below are the most common symbols for halal:

Certain chain restaurants, especially in the UK, and some in the US and
Canada have become halal-compliant. If you aren't sure, ask to see the
manager. Products that don't contain meat are often halal-certified and the
manufacturers/stores/restaurants that sell them are all paying the halal
tax to Islamic halal certifiers.

animal cruelty that halal-slaughtered animals must endure by scrolling down

Are the Antifa Terrorists? Feds Have Reportedly Classified Their Activities
as ‘Domestic Terrorist Violence’

By John Haltiwanger  On
9/1/17 at 2:10 PM

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has formally classified the
activities of anti-fascist groups (antifa) as “domestic terrorist violence”
since early 2016, according to confidential law enforcement documents obtained
by Politico

and
interviews*.*

Federal authorities have reportedly warned state and local officials the
antifa has become “increasingly confrontational” in efforts to thwart white
supremacist groups.

Newly disclosed documents show authorities believed “anarchist
extremists” were the main cause of violence at a number of public rallies.
A confidential 2016 joint intelligence assessment by DHS and the FBI blamed
the antifa for attacks on a range of targets, including police, government
institutions and symbols of “the capitalist system.”

Keep up with this story and more by subscribing now


According to Politico, interviews showed federal authorities really became
cognizant of the antifa amid the rise of Donald Trump, and law enforcement
officials have claimed Trump’s rhetoric and policies helped catalyze
left-wing extremism in the U.S.

One senior law enforcement official reportedly stated, “It was in that
period [as the Trump campaign emerged] that we really became aware of them.
These antifa guys were showing up with weapons, shields and bike helmets
and just beating the shit out of people They’re using Molotov
cocktails, they’re starting fires, they’re throwing bombs and smashing
windows."

Law enforcement officials have apparently been taken aback by the
swift rise of the antifa, about which they still have much to learn, and
have struggled to come up with an organized response.

The dynamics of the antifa are complex. It claims to have no leaders or
hierarchy, but officials believe members coordinate through a decentralized
network of cells, Politico reports.

The FBI and DHS were reportedly unwilling to elaborate on any of this to
Politico, given the materials the publication obtained were never supposed
to be publicly disclosed.

Anti-fascist groups have been around for decades, some emerging during the
early part of 20th century
.
But it wasn’t until the recent tragic events in Charlottesville, Virginia,
that the antifa became a larger part of public discourse.

President Donald Trump controversially blamed the violence that occurred in
Charlottesville on “many sides,”

and has contended the media hasn’t focused enough on the role the antifa
played

.

On this subject, it is worth noting the only death in Charlottesville
occurred when a white nationalist—not a member of the antifa—plowed his car
into a group of counterprotesters
.
What occurred has been characterized as domestic terrorism

by
Attorney General Jeff Sessions, a designation the president does not seem
to share.

The antifa’s overall aim is to resist fascism—the name is fairly
self-explanatory—and it claims to embrace values of anti-capitalism,
anti-racism and anti-authoritarianism

.

Many on the left can get on board with these principles, but also take
issue with tactics the antifa is seemingly willing to employ as it works
toward its stated goals (primarily what are known as “black bloc” tactics

).

In short, there are some on the left who might agree with the antifa’s
supposed desired ends, but aren’t willing to endorse the antifa’s apparent
embrace of violence.

As *The Atlantic’*s Conor Friedersdorf recently wrote
,
“It is an easy call for me to denounce antifa members who participate in or
endorse extralegal violence. That does not contradict my simultaneous
judgment that antifa’s stated end of resisting fascism is laudable. If they
showed up in force to protest Nazi rallies, but refrained from initiating
the use of force, using it only lawfully in self-defense, I would have

Congresswoman Shelia Jackson Lee joined Roland Martin to talk about the
devastation left from Hurricane Harvey. To get a picture of what’s
happening in Houston the congresswoman tried to explain at the 2:20 mark
that,* “Many people don’t know that we are 50 feet below sea level and are
still flooding.” HUH??? *

WHT Yes, she opened her mouth and removed all doubt…she’s clueless!

FACTS: SEA LEVEL = HOUSTON: Downtown Houston stands about 50 feet (15 m)
*above* sea level, and the highest point in far northwest Houston is about
125 feet (38 m) in elevation. Land along the Texas Gulf Coast is sinking at
the rate of about 2 inches per decade, which may not seem like much.

EDT

Spain. Marcos del Mazo/LightRocket via Getty Images

“I want to force them out of the shadows.”

That’s what Daryle Jenkins, a longtime activist and antifa

member, told me in a recent interview. Antifa is a loose network of
left-wing activists who physically confront and publicize the personal
information of people they consider fascists.

These are the black-clad folks who show up at alt-right rallies or
conferences in order to shut them down before they happen. Since the events
in Charlottesville

a few weeks ago, Jenkins has emerged as an unofficial spokesperson for
antifa.

Jenkins is perhaps not what you’d expect the public face of antifa to look
like. He’s 49 years old, an African American, and an Air Force veteran. He
lives in Philadelphia but spends a lot of his time traveling around the
country in pursuit of white supremacists.

He attends their conferences. He shows up at their rallies. He films them,
takes their pictures, and exposes them publicly. This is what he’s done
since 2000, when he co-founded One People’s Project, a watchdog group that
tracks right-wing hate groups and maintains a database of their membership.

Unhappy with the media coverage of antifa, Jenkins has embraced the
spotlight, hoping to dispel some of the myths around the group. In this
interview, he responds to some of my objections to antifa. We also talk
about his tactic of doxxing white supremacists (meaning he outs them to
their employers and communities).

“My view is that you have to be aggressive. You have to expose these
people,” Jenkins told me. “White supremacists are more afraid of us than we
are of them. They know we can cause more damage to them than they can cause
to us.”

Our full conversation, lightly edited for clarity, follows.
Sean Illing

Before we get into antifa, tell me about your personal politics.
Daryle Jenkins

For the last couple of years, I’ve increasingly come to think of myself as
an anarchist, but for many years I simply identified as a leftist. These
labels are slippery, as you know, so it’s never that simple. But generally
speaking, I’m of the left.
Sean Illing

Those are very different things, right? An anarchist wants no government, a
leftist wants more government, or at least better government.
Daryle Jenkins

The way I think of anarchism is that it refuses to recognize an authority
that doesn’t deserve to be recognized. So I’m still comfortable supporting
government so long as that government is just and upholds righteous
principles.

*“White supremacists needed to know that they aren’t a majority, that this
is not the country they want it to be — not today, not ever” *
What antifa stands forSean Illing

Let’s talk about antifa
,
the militant left-wing group that has received a lot of attention since
Charlottesville. You’ve emerged as one of the faces of this group. Do you
own that label?
Daryle Jenkins

Absolutely. I proudly stand with antifa, and I’ve always been antifa, even
before people knew what that meant. People keep talking about antifa like
it’s a comprehensive belief system, but it’s not. antifa, as a group,
simply stands against fascists — and we fight them wherever they emerge.
Once upon a time, anti-fascists were just called civil rights activists or
anti-racist activists. So this isn’t exactly new or unusual.
Sean Illing

You know a lot of people would shudder at that comparison, right? The
majority of the civil rights activists were nonviolent and engaged in
organized acts of strategic civil disobedience. That’s not exactly what
antifa is up to.
Daryle Jenkins

I agree with that. There’s definitely a tactical difference between antifa
and Martin Luther King’s movement.

Jenkins (on the left) marches during a 2001 rally in the wake of riots in
Cincinnati, Ohio, following a police shooting that killed 19 year old
Timothy Thomas.
Sean Illing

Antifa endorses violence as a justifiable means, and I assume you do as
well. Why?
Daryle Jenkins

I’m glad you brought this up, because I’ve noticed a lot of attention has
been placed on antifa’s use of violence. But it’s not as though we’re
running around like the nihilists in *A Clockwork Orange* looking for a
nasty fight. Violence is not a central component of what we do and it’s
definitely not the only thing we do. It’s not preferred or even the first
option.
Sean Illing

While our nation’s overall concealed carry landscape is a patchwork of
frustrating laws many Americans struggle to navigate, it is heartening to
know that 12 states makes things easy by allowing law-abiding residents to
carry guns without any bureaucratic interference.

This means 12 states recognize the Second Amendment as your concealed carry
permit. The states are Alaska, Arizona, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi,
Missouri, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

A brief overview of the carry laws of the permitless carry states follows:

Alaska–Alaska did away with its concealed carry permit requirement in 2003.
The NRA-ILA  sums up Alaska’s carry law: “Any
person 21 years of age or older may carry a handgun concealed on their
person provided that, when contacted by a police officer, informs the
officer of that possession and allows the police officer to secure the
handgun for the duration of that contact.”

Arizona–On April 16, 2010, Gov. Jan Brewer (R) signed legislation
abolishing a concealed carry permit requirement in Arizona. The law allows
law-abiding citizens 21-years and older to carry a concealed handgun on
their persons for self-defense. Arizonans have the option to carry their
handgun openly without a permit if they so choose, and it is not uncommon
to be line at a burger joint and see the guy in front of you carrying one
of the Kimber 1911s or a Glock 19 in plain sight.

Idaho–On March 25, 2016, Gov. Butch Otter (R) signed legislation which did
away with a permit requirement for concealed carry. KTVB

reported
that Otter released a letter subsequent to the signing in which he stressed
that permitless carry “is consistent with the U.S. Constitution.”

Kansas–On April 2, 2015, Gov. Sam Brownback (R) signed legislation
abolishing the requirement for a concealed carry license in
Kansas. According to the Topeka Capital-Journal
,
Moms Demand Action’s TerMiller as saying her group “spoke out against this
dangerous setback for public safety [but] Governor Brownback ignored
[them].”

Maine–On July 8, 2015, Gov. Paul LaPage (R) signed legislation abolishing
Maine’s concealed carry permit requirement. The legislation was sponsored
by Eric Brakey (R-Auburn), who pointed to the inconsistency in Maine’s
laws, inasmuch as Maine allowed open carry without a permit but required
residents to acquire government documentation before carrying in the event
that their jacket covered their gun. He said
,
“When someone with a credible death threat against them has to wait for
months before they can carry legally and defend themselves with their
jacket on, that says it is not working.”

Mississippi–On April 15, 2016, Gov. Phil Bryant (R) signed permitless carry
legislation into law for Mississippi. Breitbart News

reported that the new law expanded previous permitless provisions
from carry in backpacks and satchels only to carry in “belt and shoulder
holsters” as well.

Missouri–On September 14, 2016, Missouri  lawmakers overrode Gov. Jay
Nixon’s (D) veto and abolished a concealed carry permit requirement in the
state. The permitless carry legislation–SB 656–was sponsored state Sen.
Brian Munzlinger (R-18). He pointed out SB 656 would

A Female Doctor Working in Germany Warns the World

September 1, 2017

ADMIN  0 Comments


“Yesterday, at the hospital in Germany where I work,we had a meeting about
how the influx of muslim immigrants from the middle east is simply
unsustainable. Walk in Health Clinics cannot handle emergencies, being
overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of serious health emergencies, they are
starting to send everything to the hospitals.

Many muslims are refusing treatment by female staff here in Germany.  The
muslim men make sick, crude comments and overtures to the female staff
members, because to them any non-muslim woman is a whore or a future
slave.  After brief exposure to these cruel, sadistic, female hating beats,
we, women, are refusing to go among those animals, especially the muslim
men from Africa.

Relations between the female hospital staff and muslim immigrants are going
from bad to worse. Since, the assault and unreported rapes of German women
last weekend migrants going to the hospitals must be accompanied by police
with K-9 units.

Very high numbers of migrants have AIDS, syphilis, open TB and many exotic
diseases that we, in Europe, do not know how to treat them.

If they receive a prescription in the pharmacy, when they learn they have
to pay cash they become violent. They were told in the middle east that
everything in Germany would be free. Everything would be handed to them on
a silver platter.



Finding out that they MUST pay for certain things leads to loud, violent,
outbursts, especially when it is about drugs for the children.   Many of
these muslim immigrants kidnapped children, so that, their social benefits
would be higher once they landed in Germany.

Finding that they would have to pay for the children’s drugs, they gave up
the ruse and abandoned the children with pharmacy staff with the words:
“So, cure them here yourselves!”

Now, the police are not just guarding the clinics and hospitals, but also
large pharmacies.

Truly we said openly: Where are all those who had welcomed in front of TV
cameras, with signs at train stations?! Yes, for now, the border has been
closed, but a million of them are already here and we will definitely not
be able to get rid of them.



Until now, the number of unemployed in Germany was 2.2 million. Now it will
be at least 3.5 million or higher. Most of these people are completely
unemployable. A infinitesimal bare minimum of them have any education. What
is more, their women usually do not work at all. I estimate that one in ten
is pregnant with many children in tow.

Hundreds of thousands of them have brought along infants and little kids
under six, many emaciated and neglected.  If this continues and German
re-opens its borders, I’m going home to the Czech Republic. Nobody can keep
me here in this situation, not even double the salary than at home. I went
to Germany, not to Africa or the Middle East.

Even the professor who heads our department told us how sad it makes him to
see the cleaning woman, who for 800 Euros a month cleans every day for
years.  She has to pick up the refuse the muslim men discard every where
they go.   She has to serve the young muslim men in the hallways who stand
there with their hand outstretched, demanding everything for free, and when
they don’t get it they throw a fit.



They know Germany and her citizens are very civilized.  Add to that the
world is watching, so these vicious, lazy, muslim youths know if they
scream shout, and threaten violence, the German people will cave in.

I tell you, no one who has not come in contact with them has any idea what
kind of animals they are, especially the ones from Africa, and how the
muslim men and women act superior to our staff who are Christian.  They
look down upon us, verbally deride our Christian values and then demand
that their every wish be granted immediately.

If, Germans with our generous nature cannot handle this, then the rest of
Europe will be total chaos.

For now, the local hospital staff has not come down with the diseases they
brought here, but, with so many hundreds of patients every day – this is
just a question of time.

In a hospital near the Rhine, migrants attacked the staff with knives after
they had handed over an 8-month-old on the brink of death, which they had
dragged across half of Europe for three months before seeking medical
attention. The child died in two days, despite having received top care at
one of the best pediatric clinics in Germany.  The physician had to undergo
surgery and two nurses are in the ICU. Nobody has been, and no one will be
punished.

The Slow Death of the Republican Party

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/08/27/exclusive
-brent-bozell-the-slow-death-of-the-republican-party/



*by* *BRENT BOZELL III
   **27 August *


The Grand Old Party is about to commit suicide.

All this talk about Trump this, and Trump that, masks a far bigger
political controversy. The Republican Party leadership in Washington, D.C.,
has fundamentally betrayed its constituents and they are about to learn
that they’ve been double-crossed — for years.



Every Republican candidate’s stock speech sounds the same, the thunderous
roar about a government out of control, federal spending out of control
(insert charts and graphs and why, if you stack hundred dollar bills, they
will reach the edge of the universe), federal taxes out of control (insert
comparisons to socialist countries), the federal bureaucracy out of control
(insert metaphors about chains, yokes, and the like), the family shattered
with federal funding of abortion a crime against humanity (watch for it —
there! The heart-wrenching sob), and our military is emasculated.



Two more items were added to the menu, courtesy of Obama. Obamacare Will Be
Repealed! and Illegal Immigration Will Not Stand!



In 2009, the Democrats controlled everything, partly due to the
Republicans’ cowardice on Capitol Hill, and in part because of some of the
most inept candidates and campaigns America has seen in years. The Obama
folks could have played it safe but went for socialist gold, using the
power of the legislative and the executive branches (and later the
judiciary, thank you Justice Roberts) to advance their agenda.



That included federal spending on a level unmatched in human history
resulting ultimately in a $19 trillion in debt we simply cannot pay, and
with so many tens of trillions of dollars in unfunded liabilities that
“infinity” is not far behind. One seventh of the economy was confiscated by
the federal government with the passage of Obamacare. Our national borders
were declared open and discussions over our national sovereignty closed.
And to top it off, the Democrats all but declared themselves above the law.



The GOP harrumphed that this would not stand, by God! If only… if only
America would vote them into the majority.

In 2009, the Tea Party was born. The Grand Old Party was rejuvenated. Happy
days were here again.



Just one year later, the Republicans captured the House, and with that, the
power of the purse. They now had the authority to stop the insane spending
on so many obnoxious and wholly unnecessary ventures. They could end
Obamacare simply by not funding it.



Instead, under the “leadership” of John Boehner, it did absolutely nothing.
Why, if only we had the Senate! Then we could take on the President!



So in 2014, after spending hundreds of millions of campaign dollars running
hundreds of thousands of television and radio ads pledging to end illegal
immigration while repealing Obamacare “root and branch” (author: Mitch
McConnell), they were given control of the Senate.



And within a month McConnell re-authorized both, along with every single
other thing Harry Reid and Obama wanted for yet another year.



But that’s because we can’t do what we promised until we have the
Presidency! The excuse was as predictable as summer heat in the Sahara.



In 2016, they were given that too.



*They were given everything.*



In January of this year, they formally controlled both houses of Congress
and the executive branch. Every single thing they’d ever promised was now
possible.



They now had the power to enact every single spending cut they’d ever
solemnly pledged. All those wasteful programs designed to fill the liberal
sandbox — PBS, NPR, Planned Parenthood, NEH and the rest of the alphabet
soup; all the hundreds of billions of dollars in corporate welfare to
multi-billion-dollar corporations; all of the hundreds of billions of
dollars directed toward leftist social engineering — poof! All of it could
come to an end with a stroke of a pen.



They now had the power to restore fiscal tax sanity too. Remember the flat
tax? The fair tax? Slashing the highest corporate taxes in the world?
Giving you a tax break? All of it could be done with a snap of the fingers.



Repeal Obamacare? Check. End illegal immigration? Check. Build the wall?
Check.



Crush the Deep State? Done, by God, done!



There was not a damn thing the Democrats could do to stop them from
draining the swamp.



*Except the Republican leadership didn’t mean it. With the exception of the
Freedom Caucus in the House, and literally a handful in the Senate, the
rank-and-file didn’t either. Not one word of it.*



The opportunity arose for the vote to repeal Obamacare, and after huffing
and puffing, and huffing and puffing some more, the dust settled and
socialized health care remains the law of the land, perhaps permanently.



The opportunity arose for tax

 ISLAM’s FAVORITE TIME OF THE
YEAR: “Eid al-Adha”- the holiday of animal genocide
 by BareNakedIslam

September 1st marked the first day of Eid al-Adha 2017, after the new moon
crescent was sighted on August 22nd. During Eid, millions of Muslims come
out to watch animals being sacrificed in the streets, in the slowest, most
frightening and painful way possible.
Eid al-Adha celebrations begin two days after the start of Hajj - the
important annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, the holy city in Saudi
Arabia, where more than two million pilgrims go to Saudi Arabia and spend
the day walking around a big black cube called the Kaaba as part of the
Hajj pilgrimage.  In the Islamic lunar calendar, Eid al-Adha takes place on
the 10th day of the 12th month and lasts for four days until the 13th day.
This year it will start on Friday, September 1 and will end in the evening
of Tuesday, September 5. But the real 'fun' get doing when crowds gather to
watch the smiting of necks *(but not deep enough to sever the spinal cord
which would numb the pain)* which results in the the slow, agonizing death
of the animals. And if you think halal slaughter is "just like kosher
slaughter, "* look at THIS
*
Think
of Eid as the time when Muslims practice on animals what many of them go on
to do to humans.

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Expect millions of Iraqi refugees shortly

Expect millions of Iraqi refugees shortly

The Shiites have a master plan. The Sunnis are in disarray.

Dr. Mordechai Kedar,  31/08/17 17:41

*More from the author ►
*

In an *article last week o*
n *Arutz
Sheva*, I wrote that Syrian President Basher Assad is regaining power with
the help of an Iranian Shiite coalition made up of Iranian fighters joined
by Hezbollah, Iraqi and Afghan militias. In the near future,  I predicted,
it is possible that this coalition will try to rid the country of the
millions of Sunnis who make up the majority of Syrian citizens, in order to
prevent additional rebellions of the type Syria experienced from 1976 to
1982 and has been suffering from for the last six and a half years.

As a result of  last week's article, I was contacted by Sheikh Walid el
Azawi, an Iraqi Sunni living in exile in Europe, who heads a party called
"The Patriotic 20 Rebellion."  He wanted to tell me the shocking story of
the situation in Iraq, where he claims that for years now, Iran is the real
ruler and its Ayatollahs dictate Iraqi government policy and actions.

Iranian hegemony blends in well in Iraq, most of whose citizens are Shiite,
and now that the Islamic State established by ISIS in Iraq has
disintegrated, the Sunnis there have no armed organization to protect them
from both Iranian and Iraqi Shiite rage

The Shiite's desire to rid the country of its Sunni minority is motivated
by a desire for revenge, because up to the year 2003, Saddam Hussein ruled
Iraq, and treated the Shiites with terrible cruelty all the years he was in
power. After his defeat in the First Gulf War in February 1991, he used
artillery to butcher tens of thousands of Shiites who attempted to find
safety at the gravesite of Hussein ibn Ali in the city of Najef.

There is an even older feud between the Iranians and the Iraqii Sunnis,
dating from the 1980-1981 war forced upon them by Saddam Hussein . This war
took the lives of over a million people, both citizens and soldiers, on
both sides. It is important to recall that both sides used chemical weapons
against each other during that accursed war which ended in Iran's defeat
when the chemical warfare waged against Tehran killed thousands of
civilians.

The Iraqi and Iranian Shiite desire for revenge on Saddam Hussein is now
directed against his entire religious sector, the Sunnis, who stand
unprotected and unarmed against a rising, strengthening Shiite world. The
collective power of Sunni forces – made up of organizations such as ISIS,
al Qaeda, the Syrian rebels and countries such as Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the
Emirates and Egypt – is weakening rapidly over the last few months in the
face of the growing strength of the Shiite coalition made up of Iran,
Hezbollah, and the Iraqi and Afghan militias.

Sheikh Walid el Azawi claims that as a result of this enormous shift in the
balance of power, the Shiites will do everything they can to expel the
Sunnis from Iraq to any country willing – or unwilling – to accept them. If
this scenario does come to pass, about ten million Iraqi refugees will soon
be joining the waves of the 15 to 20 million already existing refugees
 This wave of refugees can turn Europe, North and South America, Asia and
Africa into economic disaster areas, leading to social unrest and political
maelstroms. Do not forget to thank Iran and all those who strengthened that
country during the past few years.

What is the solution?

During my conversation with the Sheikh, I asked him what solution he and
his party have to offer to save the Iraqi Sunnis and convince them to
remain in their homeland.  His answer came as a total surprise: "The
Emirate Solution."  He is convinced that this is the only real solution
that can save the Sunnis in Iraq from ethnic cleansing.

The country must be divided into  regional states, on the lines of the USA,
or cantons as in the Swiss model, each with internal autonomy. Iraq would
become a federation with a limited central government while the Emirates
would run the lives of whatever group resides in their territory. Each
Emirate would lead its own life and refrain from interference in the
policies of the other Emirates. Each Emirate would be ruled by a local
Sheikh who originally stood at the head of the families within the
Emirate's borders, following the population's social traditions. This,
claims the Sheikh, will create harmony, stability and peaceful relations
with neighboring Emirates for the good of all the citizenry.

The "Emirate Solution" will also grant self-rule to the Kurds of Northern
Iraq, making the establishment of an independent Kurdish state unnecessary
and preventing

President Trump Wants Tax Cuts, But Once Again The RINOs In Congress May
Block His Agenda


Posted: 31 Aug 2017 07:06 PM PDT

It
has become exceedingly clear that we need to try to remove as many
establishment Republicans from Congress as we possibly can in 2018. Even
though the Republicans are in control of the White House, the Senate and
the House of Representatives, the “Make America Great Again” agenda is not
being implemented, and the blame for that lies entirely with the RINOs
(Republicans in name only). Obamacare still has not been repealed, the wall
has not been built, and now there is talk that the RINOs plan to block
Trump’s tax reform bill. It was expected that the Democrats would try to
obstruct Trump’s agenda, but Trump’s biggest problem so far in his
presidency has been his fellow Republicans. If they won’t go along with
what he is trying to do, we will kick them out and put in people who will
.

On Wednesday, Trump delivered a major speech in which he boldly declared
that we have a “once-in-a-generation opportunity”

to implement tax reform.

And he is exactly right. The Republicans have not often had simultaneous
control of the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives,
and so they should be attempting to push through as much of Trump’s agenda
as possible.

During his speech
,
Trump outlined four basic principles that he intends to follow when it
comes to tax reform. First of all, he believes that the tax code should be
much simpler…

Here are my four principles for tax reform: First, we need a tax code that
is simple, fair, and easy to understand. (Applause.) That means getting rid
of the loopholes and complexity that primarily benefit the wealthiest
Americans and special interests.

This is something that we should all be able to agree with. Right now the
tax code is more than 2 million words long, and the regulations add another
7 million words. I once spent an entire year studying tax law, and at the
end of that year I came to the conclusion that the best thing that we could
do would be to throw the entire tax code in a shredder and start over.

In addition to simplifying things, Trump also wants to implement changes
that will create more jobs for U.S. workers…

Second, we need a competitive tax code that creates more jobs and higher
wages for Americans. It’s time to give American workers the pay raise that
they’ve been looking for for many, many years.

One of the key things that we can do to reach that goal would be to cut the
corporate tax rate. As Rand Paul

recently noted, cutting the corporate tax rate to 15 percent would likely
create about two million new jobs…

Cut the rate so it is competitive with other countries. (15% makes us even
with Canada’s federal rate
.)
Cut the rate so that it can create jobs. Cut the rate to encourage people
to start new businesses, hire more people and grow. According to a 2016 Tax
Foundation analysis
 of
then-candidate Donald Trump’s tax plan, comprehensive reform, including
lowering the corporate rate to 15%, could create around 2 million new jobs.

Thirdly, President Trump wants to make sure that middle class families
greatly benefit from any tax cuts…

The third principle for tax reform is a crucial one: tax relief for
middle-class families. (Applause.) In a way — and I’ve been saying this for
a long time — they’ve been sort of the forgotten people, but they’re not
forgotten any longer. I can tell you that. (Applause.)

For years, I have been detailing the demise of the middle class
 in
America. The middle class became a minority of the population for the first
time ever in 2015, and each year it continues to shrink.

Cutting taxes on the middle class won’t solve our problems, but it would be
a positive step in the right direction.

Lastly, Trump wants to repatriate trillions of dollars that are currently
being held offshore by U.S. companies…

Fourth and finally,

The Ramashan Mosque outside of Houston is one of the few buildings in the
area that has not been hard by flooding, but if you think that means the
people currently barricaded inside will be helping their neighbors you have
another thing coming.

The building can easily hold over 500 people, much more than the 27
currently inside. But the imam of the mosque, Aswat Turads, says that they
absolutely cannot accept any non-Muslim people because it’s against their
religion.

“The Quran is very clear,” Turads told local news radio station WXTX, “we
are forbidden from helping infidels, no matter how much we want to. If we
allow Christians and Jews inside, we are violating a fundamental tenant of
Islam and will be punished by Allah.

Turads says that the mosque has donated more than $500 to relief efforts
despite their “inability” to provide shelter for those who need it the most.

This is inexcusable. No matter what your religion, you should be willing to
help your community. Christian churches all over Texas are doing *their*
parts to help. Why can’t Muslims do the same?

Banning them will do bupkis for blacks. By Deroy Murdock - August 24, 2017

To update an old joke, removing Confederate statues is a bit like wetting
one's self in a dark suit: It offers a warm feeling but little of lasting
value.

The erasist frenzy to tear down Confederate monuments is accelerating at
the speed of mob rule. What began in April with New Orleans's
planned-if-ill-advised banishment of statues of Confederate president
Jefferson Davis and generals P. G. T. Beauregard and Robert E. Lee has
devolved into vandalism.

Atlanta rioters attacked and damaged what they reckoned was a Confederate
memorial. In fact, as the *Journal-Constitution* explained, the Peace
Monument

"features an angel standing above a Confederate soldier, guiding him to lay
down his weapon." Oops. Never mind!

police arrested Andrew Schneck, 25, at the statue of Confederate general
Richard Dowling. Officials say that Schneck had enough materials with him
"to produce a viable explosive device
."
These included nitro glycerine and hexamethylene triperoxide diamine, both
of which  are designed to go ka-boom. Schneck, who was on five years'
probation after pleading guilty to federal explosives charges in 2014,
lives in his mother's home. That's where, she says, he conducts "chemistry
experiments."

The old-guard media nearly fainted when President Donald J. Trump said on
August 15, "This week, it's Robert E. Lee. I noticed that Stonewall
Jackson's coming down. I wonder, is it George Washington next week, and is
it Thomas Jefferson the week after? You really do have to ask yourself,
‘Where does it stop?'"

But within a few hours of making these "off the rails" and "unhinged"
remarks, Trump was vindicated. The Left made *precisely* the demands that
he predicted.

As Fox News's Jesse Watters noted, Al Sharpton shared his thoughts about
the Jefferson Memorial with PBS's Charlie Rose that evening. "Public
monuments are supported by public funds. You are asking me to subsidize the
insult of my family." Referring to Jefferson's slave ownership, Sharpton
added: "The public should not be paying to uphold somebody who had that
kind of background."

*Vice News* last Thursday headlined Wilbert L. Cooper's op-ed as
follows: "Let's
blow up Mount Rushmore
"
- the South Dakota landmark where Washington and Jefferson are captured in
stone. The website changed that to "Let's Get Rid of Mount Rushmore" and
lamented that "the use of ‘blow up' in the original headline as a
rhetorical device was misguided and insensitive" - insensitivity being
among the Left's cardinal sins. Cooper's article mocks "Abe Lincoln
squatting on his (recently vandalized
)
throne [and] George Washington's phallus towering over everything in DC."

"I don't care if it's a George Washington statue or a Thomas Jefferson
statue or a Robert E. Lee statue," political commentor Angela Rye declared
the same day on CNN. "They all need to come down."

And why stop with slave owners?

Last week, the Lincoln Memorial was defaced

with red spray paint. A graffito there screamed: "Fuck the law." Also, a
bust of Abraham Lincoln was torched in Chicago, in a state that calls
itself "The Land of Lincoln." Presumably the Great Emancipator waited too
long to sign the Emancipation Proclamation. Why on Earth didn't Lincoln do
so exactly one second after he uttered the words, "So help me God," at his
first inauguration on March 4, 1861? Instead, Lincoln waited until January
1, 1863, after the Union victory at Antietam. Too little, too late. What a
racist!

And why stop with Americans?

Why Kremlin militias in the United States?



*Why Kremlin militias in the United States, or What does the GRU, MVD
soldiers and Russian Cossacks in America?*

While the former KGB agent, now a permanent Russian President Vladimir
Vladimirovich Putin shakes hands with Donald Trump, the staff of the
Russian consulates behind American president engaged in establishing a
network of pro-Russian paramilitary youth groups in the United States.

When, after almost two years in the CIS, I returned to the United States
(as it was on the eve of maydanovskih events in Ukraine), I could not help
but notice how over a short period of my absence changed this country.

And it is not because the toilet paper in American airports has become an
order of magnitude thinner, and people on the streets - intolerance.
Rather, there have been radical changes in the society, which inevitably
reflected everywhere.

The actions described below took place right before the notorious events in
the Donbass, when the Crimea and the East of Ukraine is a "little green
men" on the part of Russia. At the same time all over the United States
clearly felt the growth of the Kremlin's influence. Here and there like
mushrooms after the rain came and organized groups associated with Russia:
funds, ensembles, Russian schools, libraries, literary competitions,
cultural evenings, sports and games under the auspices of the Embassy, ​​and
even Cossack paramilitary units and so on.

Sport-patriotic camp dedicated to the 85th anniversary of the Airborne.
Portland, Oregon, in 2015

Most of these organizations immediately came under the direct influence,
and often were created and funded by the employees of the Russian Embassy,
​​Consulate General of the Russian Federation and other diplomatic missions.

Joint patriotic concerts, mass celebration of May 9
 , the
International Women's Day and the Day of the Soviet Army even suddenly
become extremely popular events in the Russian-speaking diaspora of
America. It is well known that all of these holidays are irrelevant to

 last year, I
managed to capture quite a surreal scene: the priest of the Russian
Orthodox Church on a background of red flag with hammer and sickle. In the
evening he blessed alcoholic youth party, but in the morning preached to
American teenagers.

Further more. Suddenly we heard in California began to organize the
so-called children's pro-Russian paramilitary "bootcamp"

. One of the local Orthodox parishes in Sacramento announced a set of
wanting to go through a kind of "recruit training," which includes the use
of small arms and sporting a bow, throwing knives, drill and patriotic
education. At the same time you can relax in the tents on the nature and
sit in the evening by the campfire, talk and sing Russian songs by guitar.

In one of these camps, I was also able to visit. He acted for two years

of this church is an immigrant, a refugee from the Estonian SSR Adam

It is noteworthy that the majority of the members of the Pentecostal church
at one time granted political asylum in the United States just because of
persecution by the atheistic Soviet regime and the KGB persecution. In the

2017-09-01 Thread Travis
Dear Friends,

I have the distinguished honor of being a member of the Committee to raise
$50,000,000 for a monument to Hillary R.  Clinton.

We originally wanted to put her on Mt.  Rushmore until we discovered there
was not enough room for her two faces.

We then decided to erect a statue of Hillary in the Washington, D.C.  Hall
of Fame.

We were in a quandary as to where the statue should be placed.  It was not
proper to place it beside the statue of George Washington, who never told a
lie, nor beside Barack Obama, who never told the truth, because frankly,
Hillary never could tell the difference.

We finally decided to place it beside Christopher Columbus, the greatest
Democrat of them all.  He left not knowing where he was going, and when he
got there he did not know where he was.  He returned not knowing where he
had been, and did it all on someone else's money ..  magnificent to say the
least!

Thank you,



*The Hillary R.  Clinton Monument Committee *
P.S.

The Committee has raised $2.16 so far.

Actually, somebody donated $1,000,000 but did it thru the Clinton
Foundation.  The Foundation sent the $2.16 on to us with the Clinton family
keeping the balance for "administrative expenses".

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Innocent words (and names) are under attack

2017-08-31 Thread Travis
*Innocent words (and names) are under attack *



*By Victor Davis Hanson*

*Published August 31, 2017*

"The Bard," William Shakespeare, had a healthy distrust of the sort of mob
hysteria typified by our current epidemics of statue-busting and
name-changing.

In Shakespeare's tragedy "Julius Caesar" -- a story adopted from Plutarch's
"Parallel Lives" -- a frenzied Roman mob, in furor over the assassination
of Julius Caesar, encounters on the street a poet named Cinna. The innocent
poet was not the conspiratorial assassin Cinna, but unfortunately shared a
name with the killer.

The terrified poet points out to the mob this case of mistaken identity: "I
am Cinna the poet."

The mob answers: "Tear him for his bad verses, tear him for his bad verses!
... It is no matter, his name's Cinna!"

Shakespeare certainly would recognize that, like the playwright's Roman
mob, we have launched a war against words in our frenzy to find targets for
our politically correct madness.

Recently, there were progressive calls at the University of Southern
California to rename the school's mascot, the white Andalusian horse
"Traveler." Members of the left thought that the mute animal's name too
closely resembled the name "Traveller," the favorite horse of Confederate
general and sudden demon of 2017 Robert E. Lee.

But the mob was not finished there. An Asian-American sportscaster named
Robert Lee was recently yanked by the sports channel ESPN from broadcasting
a University of Virginia football game. Apparently, Lee's name was too
close to that of Robert E. Lee.

Nearly a century and a half after his death, General Lee has gone from
tragic figure to Public Enemy No. 1 of the left.

Lee the sportscaster, like Cinna the poet, was found guilty on the basis of
ignorant association with his name. If the politically correct herd could
not get its hands on the long-dead Robert E. Lee, it would apparently
settle for anyone in the present who shared nearly the same name.

Why would a supposedly civilized country descend into such linguistic
fascism?

Part of the problem is the presumption by elites that a supposedly
illiterate public must be protected from itself. But does anyone really
believe that average people will confuse an Asian-American sportscaster who
has the common Chinese surname "Lee" and the all-American first name
"Robert" with a Confederate general -- or that the sportscaster could thus
be somehow tangentially connected with the recent violence in
Charlottesville?

ESPN, however, does not bet on the intelligence of the average American. It
prefers to virtue-signal that it is above all suspicion of sympathy for the
Confederacy. In its search for cosmic justice, it cares little about the
injustice it metes out to real live people.

ESPN has long politicized sports and continues to lose viewers over its
adolescent political correctness. Not long ago, the network fired tennis
commentator Doug Adler. He had characterized the aggressive play of tennis
star Venus Williams as employing the "guerrilla effect." ("And you'll see
Venus move in and put the guerrilla effect on, charging," Adler had said.)
Adler's reference was drawn from the once-popular term "guerrilla tennis"
that denoted a tough, brawling, take-no-prisoners style from the 1990s.

The word "guerilla," remember, is a diminutive of the Spanish word
"guerra," ("war"). In Spanish, "guerrilla" means "little war." In English,
"guerilla" is commonly used to describe a type of unconventional fighting.

But Adler forgot that "guerilla" is pronounced the same as its English
homophone "gorilla." Some ESPN viewers did not understand the guerilla
reference and charged that Adler was using "gorilla" as a racist smear.
Adler tried to explain the reference, but he was fired and his career was
ruined, making him a modern-day Cinna the poet, torn apart by the mob.

Why the linguistic McCarthyism?

When a cowardly and self-righteous ESPN assumes the worst in people, it
hopes to find protection for itself from the thought police.

When chronic inner-city problems -- epidemic levels of murder, drug use and
out-of-wedlock births -- cannot be solved, frustrated progressives start
looking for extraneous targets to blame. And so attention turns to, for
example, an Andalusian horse -- as if changing the animal's name is at
least proof that they care.

Most revolutions eat their own. Monday's most fanatical revolutionary
becomes a counterrevolutionary sellout by Tuesday.

Once left-wing activists forced cities and states to pull down their
politically incorrect statues in the dead of night, and once they got off
scot-free in defacing and destroying publicly owned monuments, it was an
easy step up to the next level: waging war against words themselves.

In totalitarian societies, cities change their names regularly. Statues go
up and are torn down. Words, as the historian Thucydides warned 2,400 years
ago, habitually change their meanings to reflect passing political
orthodoxy -- and thugs,

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] The Revolt Against Diversity's Inquisitors

2017-08-31 Thread Travis
The Revolt Against Diversity’s Inquisitors

·Gilbert T. Sewall 

·

·

*August 30, 2017, 12:05 am*
*The problem is that the Inquisitors are just getting started.*

President Donald J. Trump, for all his defects, speaks to white Americans,
badgered ceaselessly, told to renounce their heritage and confess ancestral
sins. Too many of them — millions — have put up quite a while with censure
they feel is unwarranted and unjust. They are in revolt against their
priestly inquisitors, and a new round of the culture wars is underway.

This quasi-religious caste and its diversity catechism now direct the
nation’s institutions. Not only in media, academe, advertising, and
entertainment but also in corporations, government, and the military,
chaplains of diversity enforce the new canon law. Convinced of its special
moral vision, this caste has no intention of ceding power or tolerating
freethinkers. Its job is to root out and suppress heretics and haters — and
to propagate articles of holy faith.

As a result, freedom of conscience and science are under unique attack.
Intersectional preference, white privilege, rape culture, disparate impact,
equal outcomes, and any number of specious ideas are becoming institutional
doctrine.

Tech mogul Tim Gill establishes

a $300 million LGBT advocacy foundation “to punish the wicked.” At Google,
Danielle Brown, Vice President of Diversity, Integrity and Governance —
what an episcopal title, redolent of divine grace — and other corporate
officers made it clear after the Damore memorandum

that reasonable contestations of the catechism are “not OK,” that is,
anathema.

Writing in *Psychology Today*, Rutgers University psychologist Lee Russim
discerns

a new McCarthyism in the name of fighting sexism and racism. “I am
concerned that such stigma and blacklists will include researchers who
study group differences, especially evolutionary or biological bases of
group differences [and] anyone who has the temerity to question the
wisdom of diversity programs, affirmative action, bias reporting systems,
microaggression training, implicit bias training, and the like,” he stated.

He *should* be worried. A notable University of Pennsylvania law professor
recently drew campus-wide rebuke and open condemnation

from five colleagues for “assertions of white cultural superiority.” She
had openly praised bourgeois ideals of marriage, hard work, patriotism, and
good conduct as a superior cultural model and means of reducing social
pathology.

“White people are being asked — or pushed — to take stock of their
whiteness and identify with it more. This is a remarkably bad idea,” Daniel
Marcus warned

in a prescient 2016 article on white nationalism. “The last thing our
society needs is for white people to feel more tribal. The result of this
tribalism will not be a catharsis of white identity, improving equality for
non-whites. It will be resentment towards being the only tribe not given
the special treatment bestowed by victimhood.”

It’s not belligerent white trash — yes there is that, sure, if you look for
it — but bourgeois, striving “normies” who are tired of scorn and abuse.
Americans of all backgrounds would like black America to succeed, but if it
can’t, and if it makes their own lives miserable, they won’t take the blame
much longer. They’ll find a way of avoiding danger and disorder. It’s that
simple.

For diversity’s chaplains, the long game is to render America’s
Anglo-European heritage reprehensible and write a new history for
themselves. The short game is to get rid of President Trump.

In the post-Charlottesville pile up, it was not enough to say President
Trump is a demagogue or public figure unfit for the presidency. He is a
racist and Nazi sympathizer. White supremacists are the Administration’s
base. Nazis are terrorizing America. New indictments come daily. Blaming
Trump for a wave of anti-Semitism might come next.

Parents, taxpayers, and strivers with modest assets and a decent job — many
who come from immigrant families — who have overcome poverty and
misfortune, resent being the perpetual bad guys in the catechism. It’s
little wonder they hope a brassy showman with minimal concept of
constitutional government will act as their tribune and redeemer.

For a long time white America went along for the most part with the blame
shifting. Millions still remember 2008 promises of racial healing and
harmony, and many voted for Barack Obama solely on that 

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS ENDORSE "ANTIFA" - THE COMMUNIST PARTY

2017-08-31 Thread Travis
*Establishment Republicans Endorse The Communist Party*

Aug 31, 2017 

*by David R. Usher *

A shocking event took place after the University of Virginia
Charlottesville protests.  Establishment Republicans including Mitt Romney
,
John McCain
,
Paul Ryan ,
Marco
Rubio
,
Gary Cohn
,
Fox C.E.O. James Murdoch,

and
many other Republicans endorsed Antifa, the radical paramilitary wing of
the Hitler-era Communist Party

.

It all began with President Trump correctly saying “I think there is blame
on both sides. You look at both sides.  I think there is blame on both
sides,” …. “You also had some very fine people on both sides”. President
Trump understands that the main players in the recent spate of protests are
Leftists and Anarchists — a fact also noticed by observant writer Dave
Urbanski

.

Antifa aggressively calls for “pre-emptive violence
”, including gun
violence, property seizures, and “all out revolution
”.
Antifa appears to be the unofficial “jackboots” of the Communist Party
U.S.A  (but liberals refuse to admit it
 yet).   The CPUSA
party platform boldly endorses violence
 to achieve party goals.
There is some evidence that Antifa may also be a multipurpose ACLU tool to
paint immigration enforcement as fascist
.
Antifa is the Alt-Left, not the Alt-Right, as falsely alleged by the
Southern Poverty Law Center

.

So who were the “very fine people” on both sides?   I attended Knox
College with
John Podesta

in the radical days of the early 1970’s.  Our campus was occasionally
lively due to Saul Alinsky community-organizing military exercises

(seizing and “liberating” a large Freshman women’s dormitory was one of
them).  Whenever something happened, a lot of us normal college kids not
caught up in “Revolution for the Hell of It
”
went to see what was going on.  My friends were mostly unimpressed and
though the ruckus to be rather idiotic.

Who are the Leftists raising “Cain” all over the country?  They range from
socialist, Marxist, Communist, to Fascist.   They are all headed for Hell,
but fight about the best way to get there.

White supremacist leader Jason Kessler, a leader of the Occupy movement and
leftist organizer, ran a chat server and was aware of the plan to run over
Charlottesville protesters
.
Leftist street gangs such as Identity Europa, Traditionalist Worker Party,
& Vanguard America were instructed to take orders from Kessler.

Richard Spencer presides over groups of white nationalists at these events
with folks waving Confederate or “Kek”
 flags (an imaginary Egyptian
throwback based on the Nazi flag).  Confederates are leftist, but these
“confederates” are also hard-core Marxist.

The radicals at these staged university protests have four things in
common.  They are leftists, mostly men, mostly white, and often feminist.
They are powerless liberal males scrambling for power in a Democrat party
that has been controlled by radical feminists for decades.  But where are
the women?   Campus feminists are the organizers.  Feminists also organized
Occupy, Black Lives Matters, gay marriage,

Google is coming after critics in academia and journalism. It’s time to
stop them.


Meet your new government. (Mike Blake/Reuters)

About 10 years ago, Tim Wu, the Columbia Law professor who coined the term
network neutrality, made this prescient comment
: “To
love Google, you have to be a little bit of a monarchist, you have to have
faith in the way people traditionally felt about the king.”

Wu was right. And now, Google has established a pattern of lobbying and
threatening to acquire power. It has reached a dangerous point common to
many monarchs: The moment where it no longer wants to allow dissent.

This summer, a small team of well-respected researchers and journalists,
the Open Markets team at the New America think tank (where I have been a
fellow since 2014), dared to speak up about Google, in the mildest way.
When the European Union fined Google for preferring its own subsidiary
companies to its rival companies in search results, it was natural that
Open Markets, a group dedicated to studying and exposing distortions in
markets, including monopoly power, would comment. The researchers put out a
150-word statement

praising the E.U.’s actions. They wrote, “By requiring that Google give
equal treatment to rival services instead of privileging its own, [the
E.U.] is protecting the free flow of information and commerce upon which
all democracies depend.” They called upon the Federal Trade Commission and
Department of Justice and state attorneys general to apply the traditional
American monopoly law, which would require separate ownership of products
and services and the networks that sell products and services.

*[Want to rescue rural America? Bust monopolies.
]
*

Google has been funding New America for years at high levels
. Within 24 hours of
the statement going live, Google representatives called New America’s
leadership

expressing their displeasure. Two planned hires for the Open Markets team
suddenly were canceled. Three days later, the head of the Open Markets
team, the accomplished journalist Barry C. Lynn, received a letter from the
head of the think tank, demanding that the entire team leave New America.
The reason? The statement praising the E.U.’s decision against Google was,
according to New America President Anne-Marie Slaughter, “imperiling the
institution
.”
(As of this writing, Slaughter has denounced the story as false
,
claiming that Lynn was dismissed for failures of “openness” and
“collegiality.”)

When Google was founded in 1998, it famously committed itself to the
motto: “Don’t be evil.” It appears that Google may have lost sight of what
being evil means, in the way that most monarchs do: Once you reach a
pinnacle of power, you start to believe that any threats to your authority
are themselves villainous and that you are entitled to shut down dissent.
As Lord Acton famously said
, “Despotic power is
always accompanied by corruption of morality.” Those with too much power
cannot help but be evil. Google, the company dedicated to free expression,
has chosen to silence opposition, apparently without any sense of irony.

Google did not always operate this way in relation to think tanks, even
those it funded. The head of Google’s parent company, Eric Schmidt, served
on the board of New America starting 2000 and was chairman from 2008
through May 2016. The Open Markets institute has long studied excessive
corporate power and argued for the importance of antimonopoly laws. They
were not previously punished for their work.

*[Democrats say they want to go after monopolies. Here’s why that’s a great
idea.
]
*

But in recent years, Google has become greedy about owning not just search
capacities, video and maps, but also the shape of public discourse. As the
Wall Street Journal recently reported, Google has recruited and cultivated
law professors

Navy destroyer collides with building in downtown Houston

Yossarian a day ago

HOUSTON — As if the city of Houston hasn’t seen enough tragedy due to
catastrophic flooding from Hurricane Harvey, things took a turn for the
worse today after a U.S. Navy ship collided with a building in the downtown
area.

The ship was identified as an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer belonging to
the Navy’s 7th Fleet.

It was unclear why the destroyer was not able to see the building and take
evasive action, or why it was over 20 miles inland and trying to navigate
through a major metropolitan area.

“I had climbed up on my roof due to dem risin’ flood waters, when I saw a
big ship sailin’ down the street,” said Georgia Brown, a resident who
witnessed the incident. “I says to myself ‘Oh Lawdy, someone’s done come to
rescue us!’ and then it sails right past my house and smack straight into
that yonder building.”

This marks the fifth collision incident this summer for destroyers from the
Navy’s beleaguered 7th Fleet, following incidents involving the USS
Fitzgerald, USS John S. McCain, and the USS Ted Kennedy.


The Navy declined to comment on the cause of the collision, citing an
ongoing investigation, although it did say the captain had been promptly
relieved of his command.

Despite reticence from the Navy, a senior defense official speculated the
ship had likely veered off course from its patrol route in the South China
Sea.

Navy officials say they are planning a number of PowerPoint trainings
related to urban maritime navigation.

Trump's Truth Is Hell for Some

[image: Description: Image: Trump's Truth Is Hell for Some]


*On July 15, 1948, President Harry S. Truman accepts the Democratic
presidential nomination in a speech during the Democratic National
Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  Truman was once quoted as
saying, "I never give them hell. I just tell the truth and they think it's
hell." (AP photo)  *

By Daniel Bonevac 
Wednesday, 30 Aug 2017

Last week I ventured where few conservatives dare to tread — MSNBC.
Washington Post fact-checkers had *that very day
*
proclaimed that they had documented 1,000 false or misleading statements
from the mouth (or the Twitter account) of the president. The president,
they insist, has trouble with the truth.

To those of us who voted for Trump, this sounds wrong from the start. We
supported him partly because he resisted the lies that Barack Obama,
Hillary Clinton, and the media have been telling us. "If you like your
doctor, you can keep your doctor," "Obamacare will reduce costs by 20
percent," "Global warming is a greater national security threat than
terrorism," "Islam is a religion of peace."

Those are lies. They didn’t come from Donald Trump.

But what lies is Trump supposed to have told? Before looking at cases — two
points. First, let’s set aside hyperbole, which is a figure of speech; a
hungry child who tells his mother "I’m starving!" is exaggerating. He isn’t
telling a lie. Second, lying is more than saying something false; it’s
doing it intentionally, saying something the speaker knows is false. Talk
of lying, in this context, is misleading. The issue is truth, as The
Washington Post is careful to note — even if its readers are not.

Now, on to cases. On MSNBC, the example I was given concerned murder rates
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Trump said, in 2016, that they were going
up. But in 2007, the host exclaimed, the rate was four times as high!

A moment’s reflection should show that those two claims are perfectly
compatible. The murder rate might be climbing now after an earlier and
larger decline. (For a graphic representation, draw a checkmark and look at
it in a mirror. The line goes down, and then starts going up again.) In
fact, that was Trump’s point: the change in policing following the Black
Lives Matter protests swapped a successful strategy for an inferior one. *Trump
was right
*.
Imagine a doctor who followed the logic of an MSNBC host:

 *Patient: *"Hey doctor, my temperature’s rising. It’s now 101 degress."

 *Doctor:* “That’s not true! Your temperature was even higher when you had
the flu."

The doctor’s allegation wouldn’t fool anyone.

An interlocutor on the show gave a second example, saying, "Trump said
people on both sides committed violent acts in Charlottesville, Virginia.
But only one side had someone ram a car into a crowd!" Again, these claims
are plainly compatible. People on both sides engaged in violence, but only
one engaged in a certain kind of violence. (Let’s set aside the point that
the perpetrator didn’t ram his car into a crowd but into another car, which
hit a third car, which was pushed into a crowd.)

Again, in another context, this kind of reply would fool no one. "Both
American and Japanese bombers attacked aircraft carriers at Midway," "Not
true! Only the Americans used B-17s!"

The Post's examples are less overt, but just as incorrect. The president
has touted "new highs in a stock market that he previously derided as being
a 'big, fat bubble . . . " That’s not a contradiction. Trump quite
reasonably believes that the economic fundamentals have changed for the
better since his election. Reducing regulations and proposing tax cuts
arguably justify price levels that previously reflected monetary easing
more than economic prospects.

In instance afrer instance, the story is similar. The President asserts
that P. The Post observes that Q* — *which is entirely compatible with P

Several examples concern announcements of job-creating investments. The
president has taken credit for bringing jobs back to America, and the
companies concerned have given him credit for their decisions. Yet the Post
claims that because the companies had other incentives for making the
investments, Trump’s statements are false. That’s absurd. People make
decisions on the basis of many factors; one thing’s being a reason doesn’t
preclude something else from being a reason.

*You start with a cage containing four monkeys, and inside the cage you
hang a banana on a string, and then you place a set of stairs under the
banana.*

*Before long a monkey will go to the stairs and climb toward the banana.*

*You then spray ALL the monkeys with cold water.  After a while, another
monkey makes an attempt. As soon as he touches the stairs, you spray ALL
the monkeys with cold water.*

*Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other
monkeys will try to prevent it.*

*Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace
it with a new monkey. The new monkey sees the banana and attempts to climb
the stairs. To his shock, ALL of the other monkeys beat the crap out of
him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb
the stairs he will be assaulted.*

*Next, remove another of the original four monkeys, replacing it with a new
monkey. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous
newcomer takes part in the punishment - with enthusiasm - because he is now

fourth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked.*

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] The Ugly Side of Antifa

2017-08-31 Thread Travis
The ugly side is the only side of Antifa.

The Ugly Side of Antifa

Leighton Woodhouse 

Y esterday, at the anti-Alt-Right rally in Berkeley, I watched groups of
masked Antifa members in Black Bloc formation swarm individuals who were
apparently antagonizing them, and pummel them with their fists, feet, and
flagpoles. When the victims tried to escape, they were run down, and in at
least one case, cut off by the Antifa mob and beaten down some more. In the
incidents I witnessed, about five or six Antifa members at a time
participated in the attacks, while perhaps 50 others stood behind them,
forming an impenetrable wall that blocked bystanders from intervening, or
documenting the violence on camera. Those people would also help chase the
victims when they fled.

In one case, as a crowd of non-Black Bloc protesters yelled at the
assailants to let their victim go, an Antifa activist yelled, “He’s a
Nazi!” over and over again, justifying the assault. Then, abruptly, maybe
after realizing that the victim was not, in fact, a white nationalist, he
changed his mantra. “He doesn’t *have* to be a Nazi!” he now shouted. The
suggestion was that even if the victim *wasn’t* a fascist, he still
deserved to be beaten. For what was unclear. Maybe because he supported
Trump? Or he objected to Antifa’s tactics? Or refused to do something they
ordered him to do? Who knew? The only thing those of us watching from a few
yards away could tell was that a man, by himself, was on the ground, with a
bloodied face, covering his head with his arms, being kicked and punched by
a group of masked people, who were shielded by dozens of their comrades. My
guess is that a lot of the Antifa people in the crowd who were passively
assisting in the violence, including the guy yelling that he was a Nazi,
didn’t know anything more than that, either.

Last week, Mark Bray, a historian of Antifa, said on Trumpcast, Slate’s
podcast on all things Trump, that Antifa members are “some of the most
caring and compassionate people I’ve met.” I just finished directing a short
documentary

about the online origins of the Alt Right, for which we interviewed several
Antifa members, and I can affirm his depiction. To a person, our
interviewees cared deeply about egalitarianism and anti-racism, and spent
much of their day-to-day lives either working professionally or
volunteering for organizations and in activist groups that fought for the
social and economic rights of the disenfranchised. They gave eloquent and
persuasive explanations for why fascism must be confronted head-on, with
tactics up to and including violence.

But parsing out the nuances of moral justifications for violence in a quiet
room somewhere is an entirely different thing than standing in a park with
a mask on and a flag in your hand, with hundreds of your comrades, and
making snap decisions about whose ass to beat and whose not to. Or whether
to back up your comrades when they start beating someone up, when you have
no idea how the altercation even began, or who the victim is. Or whether to
go online afterwards and claim that everyone who got beat deserved it
because they were all Nazis.

What happened in practice in Berkeley yesterday was that anybody who
challenged the Black Bloc made themselves a target, whether they were a
white supremacist looking to stir shit up (and there were maybe five or six
of those in a crowd of thousands), or a liberal who yelled their
disapproval at their tactics, or a reporter taking pictures after being
commanded to stop. If you pissed someone in the Black Bloc off, and someone
came after you, the rest of the bloc followed. Suddenly you were facing a
hostile mob, the time for arguing your case expired, literally fearing for
your life.

I was at the protest with a film crew, working on a documentary. We were
in a public park. It was a big news event, where everybody knew there would
be media. Activists in the Black Bloc were concealed by sunglasses and ski
masks to protect their identity for exactly this reason. They carried flags
and banners, to make themselves a spectacle. Yet for their personal
security, many of them decided that it was their right to command
photographers not to take their pictures, to physically block them from
doing so, and if they persisted, to smash their equipment and assault them.
That’s what apparently happened to the guy who the Antifa member kept
calling a “Nazi,” until he changed his mind. One of my filmmaking
partners and I got pushed around by Antifa, too. We were targets because we
had cameras. The only reason we didn’t get administered a beat down is
because when we were ordered (not asked) to point our cameras elsewhere, we
only pushed our right to film them so far. Had we pushed it a bit farther,
we probably would have ended up

Marine Colonel Jeffery Powers, 2016 season: "NFL protesting the flag" -
POWERFUL!!



NFL protesting the flag - *POWERFUL!!*





*Ret. Marine Col. Jeffery Powers wrote to the NFL *

*commissioners the following:*



*Commissioners, I’ve been a season pass holder at Yankee Stadium, Yale Bowl
and the Giants Stadium.*

*I missed the ’90-’91 season because I was with a battalion of Marines in
Desert Storm. 14 of my wonderful Marines returned home with the American
Flag draped across their lifeless bodies. My last conversation with one of
them, Sgt. Garrett Mongrella was about how our Giants were going to the
Super Bowl. He never got to see it.*



*Many friends, Marines, and Special Forces Soldiers who worked with or for
me through the years returned home with the American Flag draped over their
coffins.*



*Now I watch multi-millionaire athletes who never did anything in their
lives but play a game, disrespect what brave Americans fought and died for.
They are essentially spitting in the faces and on the graves of real men,
men who have actually done something for this country besides playing with
a ball and believing they’re something special! They’re not! My Marines and
Soldiers were!*



*You are complicit in this! You’ll fine players for large and small
infractions but you lack the moral courage and respect for our nation and
the fallen to put an immediate stop to this. Yes, I know, it’s their 1st
Amendment right to behave in such a despicable manner*







*What would happen if they came out and disrespected you or the refs
publicly?*



*I observed a player getting a personal foul for twerking in the end zone
after scoring. I guess that’s much worse than disrespecting the flag and
our National  Anthem. Hm, isn’t it his 1st Amendment right to express
himself like an idiot in the end zone?*



*Why is taunting not allowed yet taunting America is OK? You fine players
for wearing 9-11 commemorative shoes yet you allow scum on the sidelines to
sit, kneel or pump their pathetic fist in the air. They are so deprived
with their multi-million dollar contracts for playing a freaking game!*



*You condone it all by your refusal to act. You’re just as bad and
disgusting as they are. I hope Americans boycott any sponsor who supports
that rabble you call the NFL. I hope they turn off the TV when any team
that allowed this disrespect to occur, without consequence, on the
sidelines. I applaud those who have not.*



*Legends and heroes do NOT wear shoulder pads. They wear body armor and
carry rifles*

*They make minimum wage and spend months and years away from their
families. They don’t do it for an hour on Sunday They do it 24/7 often with
lead, not footballs, coming in their direction. They watch their brothers
carted off in pieces not on a gurney to get their knee iced They don’t even
have ice! Many don’t have legs or arms.*



*Some wear blue and risk their lives daily on the streets of America. They
wear fire helmets and go upstairs into the fire rather than down to safety.
On 9-11, hundreds vanished. They are the heroes.*



*I hope that your high paid protesting pretty boys and you look in that
mirror when you shave tomorrow and see what you really are, legends in your
own minds. You need to hit the road and take those worms with you!*



*Time to change the channel.*



*Powers originally sent his letter to former Florida congressman Allen
West. West then posted the letter on his news website.*



*As of last week, at least 18 NFL player had protested the anthem by either
kneeling during the anthem or raising their fists, according to USA Today
Sports.*

Berkeley Police released mugshots Tuesday of 11 of the 13 persons arrested
at Sunday’s violent political riots in the California university town.

Charges include assault with a deadly weapon, felony assault and various
municipal code violations.

The rallies Sunday saw approximately 4,000 “antifa” agitators and other
leftists shut down a “No to Marxism” rally and prayer vigil being held by
about 400 conservative Christians. The leftists took over Martin Luther
King Jr. Park near the University of California Berkeley campus and beat
several of the anti-Marxist protesters.

One officer was injured while making an arrest, and several others were
struck with paint and bottles.

The San Francisco Chronicle, which had reporters on the scene Sunday,
referred to the antifa crowd as anarchists:

“The masked counterprotesters, often referred to as antifa or antifascists,
significantly outnumbered the people who had come for the rally, many of
whom wore red clothing indicating support for President Trump. The
anarchists chased away the right-wingers, and in one case four or five
pummeled a man with fists and sticks before a radio host for Reveal, Al
Letson, jumped in to shield the victim. Anarchists also attacked reporters
who documented their actions.”

The average age of the 13 people arrested is 30.

Clare Lopez, vice president of research and analysis for the Center for
Security Policy, said the mugshots reveal that the people behind the antifa
masks were mostly professional agitators, not local college students.

“With an average age of 30, those arrested during the violent Berkeley
riots of Sunday 27 August do not fit the profile of the average college
undergrad,” Lopez told WND.

“In fact, they more closely fit the profile of professional off-campus
thugs,” she said. “And once we understand that antifa is a motley
collection of Marxist-Leninist anarchists, the direct descendants of the
1920s and 1930s communist street fighters in Europe, the better we will be
prepared to realize why these hoodlums so violently targeted a ‘No To
Marxism’ rally. Antifa was there to defend communism and plunge America
into chaos.”

*War cry wish for erasure of USA*

Antifa’s war cry, caught on video during the rally, was no less than the
total destruction of American society.

“No Trump, no wall, no USA at all!” they chanted.

*Watch video of antifa members chanting their wish for an end to America’s
existence as a nation:*

Red State author Teri Christoph wrote

:

“No, it’s not surprising that these be-masked thugs hate the USA and that
Berkeley is their home base for their hatred. The city has welcomed them
with open arms and should now be considered occupied by an enemy state.

“Make no mistake, though. Donald Trump is just today’s convenient excuse
for anti-Americans to be anti-America and thugs to be thugs. This kind of
nonsense pre-dates Trump and will still be around after Trump if we don’t
name this evil and fight back against it.”

Philip Haney, a retired Homeland Security officer and co-author of the book
“See Something Say Nothing
,”
said today’s hardcore left mimics the tactics of the Islamic jihadists with
whom they are allied.

“The Islamists say Islam is a religion of peace, but they won’t condemn the
jihadists and attack anyone who does as Islamophobic. In the same way, the
Democrats say, ‘We believe in peace, equality, diversity and
inclusiveness,’ but they won’t condemn antifa and anyone who disagrees with
them politically is a fascist,” Haney said.

“These are hardcore people,” he said. “They are totally sold on this thing
and willing to take it to the brink.”

Lopez said it’s also clear where their funding is coming from – the likes
of George Soros-affiliated foundations, the Tides Foundation and other
cash-rich foundations and NGOs.

The names, ages and places of residence for the 13 arrestees are as follows
[cities of residence are in California unless otherwise noted]:

   - *Seth Vasquez*, 25-year-old male from Berkeley.
   - *Mark Misohink*, 23-year-old male from Berkeley.
   - *James Dominic*, 23-year-old male from Oakland.
   - *Kristopher Wyrick*, 39-year-old male from Alpine.

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Marxist infiltration in America 'virtually complete'

*Marxist infiltration in America 'virtually complete'**Charles Sasser
believes nation facing 'last chance' to stay free*
--

“Anti-fascism” is all the rage (literally) in America today. Some media
outlets excused the violent actions of the “Antifa,” or “anti-fascists” in
Charlottesville, Virginia, because they opposed white supremacists and
neo-Nazis.



But what power do the white supremacists have to bring “fascism” to America
when they are a small, fringe, nearly universally reviled group of people?
That is what puzzles Charles Sasser, a longtime historian, journalist,
photographer and author.



“These people have very little financial support from anybody,” Sasser said
in an interview this week on “Stand for Truth Radio” with Susan Knowles.
“They’re such small numbers. They may be reprehensible, but they don’t
really pose a threat to our society.



“The left is the one that’s been doing all the rioting, tearing up college
campuses, etcetera. Those people are well supported. I mean, they’re
financed. But these people – KKK, white supremacists – they’re never going
to be a threat to this country.”



Sasser noted Black Lives Matter activists were able to march through the
streets of major American cities chanting “Pigs in a blanket; fry ‘em like
bacon” and “What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!” without
arousing fears of fascism from the establishment media. But when a small
group of white supremacists gathered in Charlottesville, it was seen as a
sign of fascism in America.



There’s a reason the Democratic-liberal establishment and mainstream media
seem to condone left-wing chaos, according to Sasser: It helps them advance
their preferred method of government.



“Chaos is the mother of socialism,” Sasser told Knowles, pointing out
former Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel once said a good crisis should
never go to waste.



“Collective government thrives on such opportunities. They thrive on chaos
because it gives them an opportunity for more control. So there’s a reason
all this chaos is occurring. It’s being instigated.”



Sasser details the individuals and organizations instigating chaos in the
service of socialism in his brand-new book "Crushing the Collective: The
Last Chance to Keep America Free and Self-Governing."


Socialism’s infiltration into America really began with the Frankfurt
School, according to Sasser. This collection of Marxist intellectuals fled
Nazi Germany and settled in New York’s Columbia University in 1935.



They believed a communist revolution could not succeed in a fully developed
country like the United States, so instead they proposed a “long march
through the institutions.” The idea was that if communists infiltrated the
institutions of American society – government, religion, media, education,
entertainment and religion – they could subvert the country and create the
conditions necessary for a communist takeover.



*Get Charles Sasser's "Crushing the Collective: The Last Chance to Keep
America Free and Self-Governing" at the WND Superstore!
 *



“This long march through the institutions has been going on a long time;
it’s virtually complete,” Sasser asserted. “So here I am being pessimistic,
but I think it may be too late. And I’m supposed to be optimistic, but I
can’t be. I’m a historian, so I look at this and say, ‘It’s too late.’”



A Gallup poll last year found 55 percent of young American adults now have
a positive view of socialism, which is roughly the same number of young
adults that view capitalism positively (57 percent). Sasser sees this as a
disturbing trend.



“That’s the thing that astounds me, is how many people, especially young
people, look favorably on socialism without thinking about the 100 million
people that socialism was responsible for … killing,” Sasser said.



He noted Hitler is universally reviled as history’s greatest villain, yet
the notorious fascist dictator did not murder as many people as communist
tyrants Mao Zedong of China or Joseph Stalin of the Soviet Union.



One hallmark of communist nations is a government-controlled press, and
Sasser fears that’s exactly what the American left wants. He noted Senate
Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., introduced a bill in 2013 that would
have offered protections to journalists, but it effectively defined
“journalists” as those working for mainstream news organizations – not
bloggers, freelancers or non-salaried reporters.

A fresh crisis may be emerging within Trump's administration

[image: A fresh crisis may be emerging within Trump’s administration]

As horrible as it is, the Houston deluge

eventually will fade from the headlines and the media’s attention will
return full-time to the rising waters around Donald Trump’s presidency. The
first stop will be a deeper dive into the curious cases of Secretary of
State Rex Tillerson and top economic adviser Gary Cohn.

Both felt the need to let it be known publicly they didn’t like Trump’s remarks
after the Charlottesville violence
.
Cohn’s “friends” told the New York Times

he drafted a resignation letter before deciding not to quit, and the former
Goldman Sachs banker himself told an interviewer that the administration “can
and must do better” about condemning hate groups.


Tillerson chimed in with his shocking television comment

that “the president speaks for himself” on questions of values.

Taken in isolation, each remark could show an accomplished individual
deciding to protect his professional reputation and save face with friends
and family.

Taken together, however, the comments from such top officials raise a red
flag that, despite the recent shuffling of the White House deck, something
is still seriously off-kilter in the administration. We could be witnessing
the start of a fresh crisis between Trump and members of his own team, and
the possibility of major resignations and firings can’t be ignored.

Public criticisms of a president by aides are highly unusual, to say the
least. Normally, cabinet secretaries and others who don’t agree with a
president on a matter of substance either keep quiet or wait until they
leave to voice dissent.

For example, President Barack Obama had four secretaries of defense, three
of whom — Leon Panetta, Robert Gates and Chuck Hagel — criticized him
publicly only after they left office.

Similarly, Obama had almost no friction with congressional Democrats,
nearly all of them slavish in their devotion to whatever policy or
legislation he wanted. Exceptions, such as Sen. Chuck Schumer’s opposition
to the Iran nuclear deal, stand out because they were so rare.

But Trump’s relationships with congressional Republicans are turning
increasingly frosty. At last count, he was feuding with at least five GOP
senators, out of 52, including Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. His
relationship with House Speaker Paul Ryan remains fickle, with Ryan
criticizing Trump’s pardon of former Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

The situation raises the obvious question about how all this ends, but the
potential answers are anything but obvious. For one thing, Trump’s approval
rating of about 38 percent
is
historically low at this point for a president, but still far higher than
that of either McConnell or Ryan or any top Democrat.

Congress as a whole has an approval rating of just 10 percent, meaning
Republicans who break with Trump might gain little support in the 2018
midterms. Some could lose their jobs, and the party could lose its
majorities if they don’t pass the president’s economic and jobs agenda.

Then again, Dems may be in no position to take advantage of GOP fratricide.
The Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren wing is ascendant, antifa thugs are
spreading left-wing violence, and there is still an establishment wing of
relative moderates.

If that weren’t messy enough, along comes Hillary Clinton. She is again
re-emerging, this time to peddle a book about the election.

She’s already leaking excerpts and has scheduled September stops in
Wisconsin and Michigan, two blue states that Trump flipped last year,
quelling any doubt that she is still in campaign mode. She’ll repeat her
claims that she would be president except for various miscreants, ranging
from Trump to the Russians to former FBI chief James Comey to misogynists
and deplorables everywhere.

It’s clear to me that Clinton is keeping her options open to run again in
2020. When I mentioned this recently to a group of New York Democrats, all
of whom voted for her and one of whom was a substantial Clinton donor for
many years, they were unanimous in hoping I was wrong, that she would
retire and let the party get on with finding new leaders.

“I wouldn’t give her money again,” the former donor declared, voicing
disgust with her for losing.

He’s hardly alone,

The SPLC smear machine is being funded by liberal billionaires — why?

August 30, 2017 9:58 am By Robert Spencer


They’re either clueless or complicit.

[image: Description:
https://cdn.jihadwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/southern-poverty-law-center-building.jpg]


“The SPLC smear machine is being funded by liberal billionaires — why?,” by
Fred Fleitz, Fox News
,
August 29, 2017:

In a scathing August 24 New York Times op-ed, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a
Somali-born feminist, author, scholar and former Dutch parliament member,
lamented that the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) “has hit the
jackpot” in huge donations in the aftermath of the violence in
Charlottesville. Hirsi Ali noted that Apple pledged $1 million to the SPLC;
JP Morgan Chase & Co. half a million; George and Amal Clooney $1 million.

While Hirsi Ali condemned Nazism, white supremacy and racial bigotry as
having no place in a civilized society, she made it clear that contributing
to the SPLC is the wrong way to combat this poison.

As I explained in a 2016 Fox News Opinion article, the Southern Poverty Law
Center is a left wing smear machine that tries to denigrate conservative
individuals and organizations by lumping them together with white
nationalists, KKK members and neo-Nazis on so-called hate lists. In a
recent Frontpage Magazine article, Daniel Greenfield described the SPLC as
“one of the longest running malicious jokes on the internet.” Conservatives
targeted by the SPLC include American Enterprise Institute scholar Charles
Murray, Accuracy in Media President Cliff Kinkaid (who SPLC has singled out
for challenging global warming), the Family Research Council, and
WorldNetDaily founder Joseph Farah.

Smearing anyone who speaks out against radical Islam is one of the SPLC’s
priorities. Accordingly, it has placed on its hate lists Jihad Watch and
its Director Robert Spencer; American Freedom Defense Initiative and its
director Pamela Geller; and Maajid Nawaz a Muslim reformer who runs
Quilliam, a London-based organization that aims to counter jihadism and
extremism. My organization, the Center for Security Policy and our
president Frank Gaffney, also are on the SPLC’s hate lists due to our
principled stand against the Global Jihad Movement.

Despite how transparently political the SPLC’s hate lists are, the main
stream media regularly cites them as authoritative sources.

Last October, the SPLC added Ayaan Hirsi Ali to its hate list, an appalling
act that ignored the decades of intimidation, hatred and fear Ms. Hirsi Ali
has endured from radical Islamists. This decision also reflected the SPLC’s
disgraceful practice of turning a blind eye to the violent hatred and
extremism of radical Islam, which Hirsi Ali noted in her op-ed includes
weekly killing sprees around the world, justifying wife-beating,
enslavement of female unbelievers, murdering gay people and virulent
anti-Semitism.

The violence, hatred and intimidation radical Islamists have inflicted on
Ayaan Hirsi Ali have been extreme. She was subjected to female genital
mutilation (FGM) at the age of five when she lived in Somalia. She fled to
the Netherlands to escape an arranged marriage. After becoming a Dutch
citizen, Hirsi Ali was elected to the Dutch Parliament and began working on
a film with filmmaker Theo van Gogh titled “Submission” on the oppression
of women under Islam. Van Gogh was assassinated by a radical Islamist for
making this film. After other radical Islamists threatened to kill Hirsi
Ali for her work on the film, she was forced to live in a secret location
in the Netherlands under high security.

Hirsi Ali moved to the United States in 2006 and is now a fellow at Harvard
University’s JFK School of Government and a Research Fellow at the Hoover
Institution. She has written two best-selling books, “Infidel” (which
chronicles her life) and “Heretic: Why Islam Needs Reformation Now.”
Because of continuing threats against her life by radical Islamists, Hirsi
Ali lives with round-the-clock security and does not travel without an
armed security detail.

Despite how transparently political the SPLC’s hate lists are, the main
stream media regularly cites them as authoritative sources. CNN recently
ran a story about hate groups in the U.S. citing these hate lists which it
was forced to partially retract after a backlash by conservatives. Because
of this CNN article and other recent misleading press stories driven by the
SPLC, PayPal suspended the 

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Televangelist: 'Civil war' if Trump impeached

2017-08-30 Thread Travis
*Televangelist: 'Civil war' if Trump impeached *

Posted By *Bob Unruh* On 08/29/2017

Longtime televangelist Jim Bakker has created a furor by predicting a
“civil war” in the United States if President Trump were to be impeached.

Some Democrats are pursuing that goal, even though impeachment and
conviction likely would require the party retaking the House and the Senate.

The discussion came up while Bakker, whose television program, “The Jim
Bakker Show,” frequently deals with controversial topics, was interviewing
Ramiro Pena, a member of President Trump’s Hispanic advisory board.

At the time, Pena recently had met with Trump and other religious leaders
in the White House.

The segment was posted by Right Wing Watch in May, but apparently got no
attention until Tuesday, when the Hill reported it.


“If [impeachment] happens, there will be a civil war in the United States
of America. The Christians will finally come out of the shadows, because we
are going to be shut up permanently if we’re not careful,” Bakker said.

He continued, citing the Bible: “God says faith without works is dead. We
have to do things, God has been standing with me, and I don’t know about
you, it’s time for preachers like you, you’ve been doing it, to stand up
and shout out.”

He said Christians’ voices in American society are being threatened.

Bakker, who originally hosted “The PTL Club,” left that ministry over
accusations of improper conduct and fraud. After he served a term in
prison, he returned to the airwaves.

It was during an interview on Bakker’s show recently that talk-show host,
former law-enforcement officer and current pastor Carl Gallups expressed
his belief President Trump is facing nothing less than full-fledged
spiritual warfare.


In his new book “When the Lion Roars,” Gallups analyzes the signs of the
times, showing how harbingers of the last days can be seen in the daily
headlines.

And in recent media appearances, he’s contending the depraved opposition to
the president was predicted in the Scriptures.

“The Bible speaks in the last days of being given over to a depraved mind,
of truth being thrown to the ground, eventually there will come the man of
lawlessness, who the world will gather around and say … this man is like
God,” the pastor said on “The Jim Bakker Show.” “There will be a generation
like us that sees that, I don’t know if it’s us, but this is what I’m
saying, it’s complex. This is what’s happening before our eyes … truth has
been turned upside-down.”

Gallups believes the country itself is under demonic attack.

“We are in the throes of an attempted takeover of this nation,” he claimed.
“And it’s been a long time coming. We are the largest Christian nation the
planet has ever seen. With all of its evil, we’re the best there is. And
that’s it. Satan hates us; we’re his target. The globalists hate us
because, in order for the Antichrist to come to power, America has to
somehow go away. The constitutional republic, the national sovereignty, the
military might and the economic engine has to go away or the globalists
can’t seize control. We’re watching all of that in action.

“It’s spiritual and it’s demonic,” the pastor said.

2017-08-30 Thread Travis
*After Paul Ryan Defends ANTIFA, Air Force Veteran Tears Him To Shreds With
Perfect Letter…*

August 29, 2017  The Truth Division
 News


[image: Description:
http://thetruthdivision.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Paul-Ryan-AIr-Force.001-678x381.jpeg]



Speaker Paul Ryan is enabling George Soros’ Antifa group by not condemning
them — and he’s getting called out for it.

Just days after the Charlottesville violence, Ryan published a update that
lashed out against President Donald Trump for saying that there were two
sides responsible in the chaotic unrest.

“There are no sides,” wrote Ryan. “There is no other argument. We will not
tolerate this hateful ideology in our society.”

He’s paying the price now for his lack of condemnation — an anonymous Air
Force veteran stepped up and wrote right to the Speaker, using a powerful
letter to warn Ryan that Trump supporters are willing to kick him out.
Here’s the letter:

“After all the times you’ve seen Antifa attack people who were peacefully
demonstrating, how can you call them anything but what they are – domestic
terrorists? The Nazi’s and KKK that marched in Charlottesville were
abhorrent to every American that is a Patriot. However, the violence didn’t
start until Antifa showed up to start it. This weekend in Berkley is a
classic example of the MANY times Antifa has attacked conservatives. Why do
you legitimize domestic terrorism by not calling it what it is?

“Also, sir, I would like to say that I am sorely disappointed in your lack
of support for President Trump. While I applaud you efforts with healthcare
reform, as paltry as they were, at least you did something, unlike Senator
McConnell.

“There’s something you must understand, sir. President Trump started a
movement that has become much larger than him. MAGA has taken hold of
conservatives and pretty much anyone that is more center than anything.
Take me, for instance. I am a registered Republican who tends to vote right
of center, but after the appalling display of Republic ineptitude exhibited
since the President’s inauguration, I’m more apt to vote independent. As a
matter of fact, I and millions more would be thrilled if the President and
his staunchest supporters founded a new party that represents the *actual
values* that Republicans say they do.

“We are here sir, and we are watching you. Don’t think for a moment that we
the people will continue to all you and your ilk to lie, cheat, and steal
from us. We’re tired of it. We won’t take Antifa’s and the Alt-Left’s path
and resort to violence. No. We’ll stop opening our wallets for your
campaigns, and we’ll cast our cotes elsewhere. That’s what will really get
our point across.

“MAGA is indeed bigger than the President, but we still love him and stand
by him 100%. Donald Trump has become the champion of the people — people
like me. And there are tens of millions of us. Tread carefully, Mr.
Speaker.”

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Antifa: The New Ku Klux Klan

2017-08-30 Thread Travis
Antifa: The New Ku Klux Klan

·Jeffrey Lord 

*August 29, 2017, 12:05 am*
*Shocker: The Left turns again to hooded agents of violence.*

Over at *Conservative Review* a while back, in a column titled “The Left’s
Violent DNA,” I noted the following after the shooting of Congressman Steve
Scalise:

Question:

What do the Ku Klux Klan, the labor movement, Students for a Democratic
Society, the Weathermen, Occupy Wall Street, and congressional shooter

James
T. Hodgkinson have in common?

Answer: They all emerged from the murky depths of leftist politics. And all
have a history of violence associated with their politics.”

As if to prove the point the fascists of Antifa — stunning, I know, that
real fascists would label themselves “Antifa” for PR purposes — were on the
loose the other day in, yet again, Berkeley. Here is this report

from, of all places, the* Washington Post*:

*Black-clad antifa members attack peaceful right-wing demonstrators in
Berkeley*

Their faces hidden behind black bandannas and hoodies, about 100 anarchists
and antifa — “anti-fascist” — members barreled into a protest
Sunday afternoon in Berkeley’s Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park.

Jumping over plastic and concrete barriers, the group melted into a larger
crowd of around 2,000 that had marched peacefully throughout the sunny
afternoon for a “Rally Against Hate” gathering.

Shortly after, violence began to flare. A pepper-spray-wielding Trump
supporter was smacked to the ground with homemade shields. Another was attacked
by five black-clad antifa members
, each
windmilling kicks and punches into a man desperately trying to protect
himself.

A conservative group leader retreated for safety
 behind a
line of riot police as marchers chucked water bottles, shot off pepper
spray and screamed, “Fascist go home!”

All told, the Associated Press reported

at
least five individuals were attacked. An AP reporter witnessed

the
assaults. Berkeley Police’s Lt. Joe Okies told The Washington Post the
rally resulted in “13 arrests on a range of charges including assault with
a deadly weapon, obstructing a police officer, and various Berkeley
municipal code violations.”

In other words? In other words, yet again for the umpteenth time in the
history of the American Left, it has turned to violence. And just as the
paramilitary and hooded Ku Klux Klan was used as, per Columbia University
historian Eric Foner, “a military force serving the interests of the
Democratic Party” and, according to University of North Carolina historian
Allen Trelease, the “terrorist arm of the Democratic Party,” so now the
hooded- fascists of Antifa are being used as a paramilitary organization
designed to further the Left’s political agenda by force.

Some things never change.

Human history has moved from the discovery of fire and the invention of the
wheel to Apple, but what never changes is the hard fact of human nature.
There have always been — and sadly there always will be — human beings who
use violence to further their thirst for political power. Yesterday’s Klan
is today’s Antifa. Worse, there will always be those who make excuses for
this violence.

Recall that infamous Democratic Convention of 1924 in Madison Square Garden
smack in the middle of New York City? Known to history as “the Klan Bake”?

The Democratic Platform produced by those 1924 Democratic Delegates began
this way:

We, the representatives of the democratic party, in national convention
assembled, pay our profound homage to the memory of Woodrow Wilson. Our
hearts are filled with gratitude that American democracy should have
produced this man, whose spirit and influence will live on through the
ages; and that it was our privilege to have co-operated with him in the
advancement of ideals of government which will serve as an example and
inspiration for this and future generations. We affirm our abiding faith in
those ideals and pledge ourselves to take up the standard which he bore and
to strive for the full triumph of the principles of democracy to which he
dedicated his life.

Unmentioned? That Woodrow Wilson was a world class racist who, upon taking
office, went about segregating the American military and show-casing at the
White House a showing of *Birth of a Nation, *the infamous film celebrating

Democrats hype up leftist base, remain silent after violent antifa attack

Six injured after leftists swarm park, target police, Trump supporters

An anti-fascist demonstrator jumps over a barricade during a free speech

converged in Berkeley Sunday for a “Rally Against Hate” in response to a
planned right-wing protest that raised ...

By Valerie Richardson
 - The Washington
Times - Monday, August 28, 2017

California Democrats who whipped up opposition to the weekend’s free speech
rallies had little to say after radical leftist protesters, led by the
antifa movement, attacked police and Trump supporters on Sunday in
Berkeley, injuring six.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi
, who last week
denounced the Patriot Prayer gathering in San Francisco as a “white
supremacist rally,” had no public comment on the leftist violence.

Neither did Rep. Barbara Lee of California, who joined other local
Democrats last week at a press conference to condemn “bigotry and hate”
ahead of what they called a “white nationalist rally in Berkeley.”



Those familiar with recent right-of-center rallies in the Bay Area, Boston
 and Portland, Oregon, say
it’s a familiar pattern: Democrats play to their base by hyping fears of
neo-Nazis while ignoring or glossing over any leftist violence.

“There has been nearly complete silence from Democrats regarding the
violence of antifa in Berkeley and elsewhere,” said Cornell Law School
professor William Jacobson. “This silence only emboldens and encourages
those who seek to turn our streets into battlegrounds. Leading Democratic
politicians need to go on record unconditionally rejecting and condemning
antifa.”

Joey Gibson, leader of Patriot Prayer, who was chased and struck by masked
antifa protesters in Berkeley before police rescued him, called on Mrs.
Pelosi  and San
Francisco Mayor Ed Lee to denounce the leftist violence.





“I’m asking Mayor [Ed] Lee and I’m asking Nancy Pelosi
 to speak against this
violence and speak against this hatred, and be consistent with your
message,” Mr. Gibson said at a press conference after canceling his event.

“Nancy Pelosi , she’s
trying to further her own agenda, and she’s putting her own citizens in
danger, directly in danger,” he said.

Democrats’ muted response after Berkeley is in sharp contrast to the
Republican reaction following a white nationalist march in Charlottesville
, Virginia, where a
woman was killed and 19 others were injured after a car plowed into a crowd
of protesters.

At its summer meeting Friday, the Republican National Committee passed
unanimously a resolution denouncing the racist beliefs of “Nazis, the KKK,
white supremacists,” and declaring the party “unified in its revulsion at
the abhorrent white supremacist demonstration in Charlottesville
, Virginia.”

After President Trump blamed “hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides”
for the Aug. 12 violence, multiple Republicans urged him to call out white
supremacists and white nationalists by name, which he did in an Aug. 14
statement.

“Racism is evil — and those who cause violence in its name are criminals
and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists and other hate
groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans,” Mr.
Trump said.

One California Democrat who did condemn the violence at Berkeley was Sen.
Kamala D. Harris, although her spokesman did not mention antifa by name.

“Sen. Harris respects the right for people to peacefully protest but
believes violence has no place in America and condemns any violent actors,”
Harris spokesman Tyrone Gayle said in a Monday email.

Antifa’s defenders argue that it may be extreme but it isn’t racist, while
its critics have decried it as a terrorist group, given its willingness to
use force against “fascists” and others who run afoul of its radical
anti-American ideology.

At one point, protesters in Berkeley chanted, “No Trump! No

Swamp Rats

Grand Old Party?  I find nothing grand about you.  Out here in the [image:
Description:
https://i0.wp.com/www.jdsbunker.jdpendry.com/postimage.jpg?w=474]hinterlands
most of you are called Republicans in Name Only (RINOs).  I have a
different take.  I don’t believe you are RINOs.  I believe you are the
Republican Party and probably always have been.   Current events have
merely exposed you for who you are.  A large overbearing pachyderm in bed
with lobbyists, corporations, billionaires and pretty much anyone else who
will continually feed your bottomless wallets.  In turn, you legislate for
them and crap on Middle America, which in case you haven’t noticed is not
doing so well in recent years.  You are allied with career “civil servants”
anchored at the top and throughout our federal agencies and to your kindred
spirits in the braying jackass Democratic Party.  There are no viable
political parties left in America.  There are only “interests” none of
which address my concerns or what is in the best interests of my country.
Collectively you are the swamp rats – lifelong politicians and wannabes.
You have lost any sense of America and Americans.  You are the Washington
establishment.

Americans are tired and disillusioned.  That is why we elected a
non-politician and the America first message.  It is the message that
touched the hearts of the forgotten people of this country.  The middle
class is the strength of a nation.  Without a strong middle class we are
just another third world has been.  You have blocked the America first
agenda.  It is the American people’s agenda that you despise.  The people
you are charged to represent.  It was we the people who rejected a pile of
establishment Republicans and said no more to the Clintons.  I believe you
forget that it is the people who either accept or reject you as their
representatives not the other way around.  You do not get to have an agenda
other than ours.

So now you block and delay and you want us to believe that you were
surprised that McCain was a no vote – on anything.  Following years of
promises of all that you could accomplish if we voted you in charge, you
now tell us that it is just the “democratic process” when you are unable to
come up with any sort of plan for anything.  The democratic process is not
intentional and abject failure.  Do you think we don’t see – think we are
blinded by your brilliance?  Do you think that we do not know that your
delays and failures are just time killers until your special prosecutor can
create a storyline that helps you finish the coup?  And you believe somehow
that this will turn out well for you.  In my lifetime, I have never
witnessed a more entrenched group of failures that is supposed to represent
the people who elected them.

We know how you think.  We have learned how you play the game.  We know
that you try to sway how we think with polls.  That did not work too well
for you and it will not again.  We understand that half of our voting age
population never votes and that half of the half that does vote is
ignorant.  You and your media cronies play on that.  What did the Obamacare
architect declare?  We had to count on the stupidity of the American
people!  Together you promise the immeasurable like hope and change or
moving us forward.  Forward?  Toward what?  When we were promised things
that are measurable and things that hit us right where we live, we chose.
Do you think we will forget?  Do you think we will accept that the
democratic process is why we do not have viable healthcare, tax reform,
secure borders…?  The forgotten people and history will be unkind to you.

There is a seething anger out here.  And it is not from the little brown
shirt fascists in black hoodies that you send out to attack other
protestors or shut down speakers with which you don’t agree.  The anger is
from the people for which you are showing total contempt.  It is the super
majority of Americans who want you to do your jobs and who don’t want our
country to become Venezuela.  Now is your time to deliver or begin working
on your memoirs.  Americans have had it with you swamp rats.

[PoliticalForum] Fwd: [grendelreport] Why so many leftists are genuinely delusional

2017-08-30 Thread Travis
*Why so many leftists are genuinely delusional *

Posted By *David Kupelian* On 08/27/2017





*Delusion: **a fixed false belief that is resistant to reason or
confrontation with actual fact*

In the Age of Trump, every few weeks Americans are literally saturated,
courtesy of the news media, with the latest version of the D.C.
establishment’s Trump “narrative.”

A narrative is simply a story. But what if the story is not just false, but
insane? What then?

Let’s find out.

The left would have you believe President Trump is Hitler (Photo: Twitter)

First, let’s review the official establishment narrative since Donald J.
Trump was elected president last November: Trump is a fascist and white
supremacist whose political rise is ominously reminiscent of Hitler’s. He
stole the presidency from Hillary Clinton by secretly colluding with Russia
to hack America’s democracy. His fellow Republicans are selfish,
mean-spirited people who care only about themselves and their super-rich
friends and want to deny health care to poor children. Republicans are also
racist and anti-immigrant – after all, Trump once claimed *all* Mexicans
are rapists – and, therefore, are always trying to prevent minorities from
voting. Republicans likewise have contempt for the environment and are
content to pollute or overheat it until it’s uninhabitable by the human
race and we all die. Most recently, armies of white supremacists and
neo-Nazis have been turning up everywhere. And Trump is mentally ill and
unfit for office.

Democrats, on the other hand, are forward-thinking, tolerant, peace-loving
and morally superior folk, champions of the common man, especially the many
minority groups cruelly oppressed by Republicans. Abortion, a cherished
constitutional right that simply involves the removal of unwanted tissue
from a woman’s body, is constantly under attack by intolerant anti-choice
religious fanatics. The same oppressive bigots also target LGBTQ Americans,
even though everyone knows homosexuality and same-sex marriage are
perfectly wholesome and moral. Likewise, transgenderism is absolutely
normal, with gender identity now understood by science to be fluid,
encompassing many possible gender choices far beyond Western society’s
oppressive binary male-female paradigm. Islam, a beautiful religion of
peace, has nothing to do with terrorism; in fact, studies prove most terror
attacks are actually perpetrated by white supremacists and neo-Nazis. This
great divide in America – between ignorant, racist, theocratic
right-wingers and moral, compassionate, enlightened progressives – has been
playing out for generations. In fact, Adolf Hitler was a far-right
Christian fascist Nazi whose ultraconservative racist views led to the
Holocaust. Which brings us back to Donald Trump.

Such is the fabric of today’s wildly delusional left-wing mindscape, the
“story line” so many Democrats embrace – their “narrative.”

Yet these views and similar ones, which comprise the very warp and weft of
the narrative espoused daily by college students, Democrat politicians,
progressives and “mainstream” journalists, are reflective not of reality,
but of a bizarrely dark Alice-in-Wonderland fantasy realm in which the left
increasingly dwells.

Let’s peer down the rabbit hole and see if we can let some light in.

*Faulty premise *

It’s been said that one definition of insanity is starting with a
disastrously flawed premise and then arguing and acting perfectly from it.
For example, ISIS members are totally dedicated to a medieval Islamic
worldview. Convinced they’re restoring world civilization to a divinely
mandated seventh-century legal system by following a literalist
interpretation of the Quran, they believe they’re ushering in their
much-anticipated last-days Apocalypse. With this as their premise,
everything ISIS does – every propaganda video, every battle, every hideous
atrocity – makes perfect sense to them.

Even a garden-variety jihadist’s acts are quite understandable in light of
his catastrophically faulty underlying premise: He has been indoctrinated
(“radicalized”) to believe the creator of the universe is so angry with him
that upon death he’ll spend eternity in a fiery, shameful, loathsome
Islamic hell. However – and here’s his one and only escape route – if he
just blows himself up in jihad – say, while killing, maiming and mutilating
as many innocent little teenage girls as possible at a rock concert

– the creator of the universe will benevolently smile on him and forgive
not only his own sins, but also those of his entire family who otherwise
were probably heading for hell, too. Moreover, the moment the first drop of
his blood is shed in jihad martyrdom, he will feel no pain but be instantly
transported to paradise, where he will recline on soft green cushions and
be fed the choicest meats and fruits forever while 72 beautiful “black-eyed
virgins”

I’m all about respecting people’s privacy.

That is, unless your goal in life is to destroy the country I live in. Then
I don’t respect ANYTHING about you.

“No Trump. No Wall. No USA at all.” That’s what they were chanting that
day. Yeah… I’m not too concerned about your privacy.

Anyway, this sweet little Antifa blossom decided to attack a camera
operator who was filming Antifa at Berkeley. You know… because she hates
fascism. Makes total sense.

Charming.

Then, when arrested, she started yelling at people for taking her picture:

Listen, bubba. If you can’t stand by your actions, maybe don’t do them in
the first place. Are you not proud to be in an organization that riots for
the ultimate destruction of our nation? Maybe you should rethink what you
do on the weekends.

Anyway, maybe she’s just being humble. She doesn’t want all the credit for
being an Antifa HERO. Don’t worry, pal! We’ll make sure you get all the
credit you deserve!

Her parents must be so proud of their little Antifa darling!

Yvette Felarca has been posing as a social studies *teacher*

at
a public school in Berkeley, California for the past eleven *years*
.
But her true calling in life,⸺ what really makes her happy,⸺ is to be a
violent revolutionary who helps tear America's social fabric to shreds. In
pursuit of that goal, Felarca serves as a national organizer for *By Any
Means Necessary*
 (BAMN), a
self-described “*militant*

anti-facist
group.” Obviously, being “anti-fascist” sounds pretty unobjectionable at
first blush. But to put things in their proper context, BAMN *grew*
 out of the
Revolutionary Workers League, a Trotskyite entity that favors worldwide
socialist revolution and was once the *largest*
 black Marxist
organization in the *New Communist Movement*
, which openly
endorsed violence. Interesting affiliations for a devoted “anti-fascist,”
huh?

Moreover, Felarca has been an *activist*

in
the anti-capitalist, pro-socialist *Occupy Wall Street*
 movement,
and a participant in *Black Lives Matter*
 protests
in California. Black Lives Matter is a black supremacist movement that was
founded by Marxist revolutionaries who uniformly revere *Assata Shakur*
, the
former Black Panther and convicted cop-killer who has spent decades as a
fugitive in Communist Cuba. Again, a curious choice of friends for an
“anti-fascist,” huh?

Felarca hates America to its core, because she views it as a nation steeped
in toxic white racism. And she's determined to indoctrinate her students
with this very same hatred, no matter what the cost. When her school
district *docked*

her pay because she had repeatedly violated district rules by using her
leave time to attend “immigrant-rights” marches in support of open borders
and amnesty, Felarca nevertheless continued to play by her own rules. When
the school district eventually scheduled a private meeting to discuss
Felarca's insubordination, a gang of young rabble rousers assembled outside
the district office to denounce the “harassment” of their “anti-fascist”
icon. After that meeting, Felarca posted a Facebook message urging her
supporters to sign a petition characterizing her as a heroic role model who
should be allowed to use her personal leave time for whatever political
purposes she damn well pleased.

In October 2015, Felarca *sought*

permission to take students to a San Francisco immigration court to observe
the hearing of a woman who was seeking asylum in the U.S.  The district
denied Felarca's request, but the feisty “anti-fascist” didn't care about
anything as quaint as district rules and regulations. Thus she proudly
extended a proverbial middle finger to the taxpayers whose teats she has
been sucking dry since 2006, and she attended the asylum hearing
anyway during her regular work hours. Nor did Felarca make any effort to
hide her contempt for those taxpayers. Indeed, she gave an interview on
television during the event.

Felarca openly and explicitly *advocates*

the use of violent riots as a legitimate means of making a political
statement. “Riots are the voice of the unheard,” she *said*
 in December
2014. “You can never replace the lives of *Michael Brown and

*Some interesting data on the 'state' of the State of Illinois. There are
more people on welfare in Illinois than there are people working. Chicago
pays the highest wages to teachers than anywhere else in the U.S. Their
average pay is $110,000/year. Their pensions average 80-90% of their
income. Wow, are Illinois and Chicago great or what? Be sure to read till
the end. I've never heard it explained better. Perhaps the U.S. should pull
out of Chicago?*

*Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country. Can't blame
Republicans; there aren't any!*

*Cook County ( Chicago ) sales tax 10.25% highest in country. Can't blame

*This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois. And he
was going to 'fix ‘Washington politics for us?*



*George Ryan is no longer Governor, he is in prison.*



*He was replaced by Rob Blagojevich who is, by the way, also in prison.*
