THE NATIONAL SENTINEL, by Jon Dougherty — April 6, 2019

Excerpt:

……………………………………………………………..

… Democrats — and especially the freshmen socialists — have gone off on one legislative tangent after another, pushing proposals that have no chance of passing but which do serve to keep our country hopelessly divided.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has become her party’s ‘activist in chief’ with her lead-off “Green New Deal” that fell so flat in the Senate it became the biggest legislative defeat practically in the history of the chamber, failing to garner even a single Democrat vote (57-0).

Now she’s pushing something called an “agenda for reparations” in which she seeks to pander…er, ingratiate…herself with black voters.

TRUMP – Time for Some Offense!

Rogue Cartoonist, Ben Garrison — April 6, 2019

Excerpt:

Halftime is over and now it’s time to play Offense!

President Trump has gone through almost three years of constant harassment by the Democrats and the Fake New media.

Robert Mueller has released his report. The findings are No Collusion and no obstruction of justice.  The Fake News and the Democrats could not believe their ears, this report is what they pinned all their hopes of Impeachment and seeing Trump marched out of office.  This was not the ending they had hoped and prayed, doing everything in their power to claim collusion is real but to no avail.

……………………………..

It’s time to unmask the Democrats and the Deep State Swamp dwellers and reveal how they have been running over our Constitution and our rights. Spineless Swampy Republicans are neck deep in the muck and the whole congress needs to be flushed out.

2020: Socialist America or Trump’s America?

Patrick J. Buchanan — Official Website, by Patrick J. Buchanan — April 5, 2019

And what would then happen if the Democrats simply held the House, added three Senate seats and defeated Trump in 2020?

Excerpt:

In the new Democratic Party, where women and people of color are to lead, and the white men are to stand back, the presidential field has begun to sort itself out somewhat problematically.

According to a Real Clear Politics average of five polls between mid-March and April 1, four white men — Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, “Beto” O’Rourke and Pete Buttigieg — have corralled 62 percent of all Democratic voters.

The three white women running — Senators Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar and Kirsten Gillibrand — have, together, a piddling 8 percent.

The lone Hispanic candidate, Julian Castro, is at 1 percent.

African American candidates Kamala Harris and Cory Booker fare better, with Harris at 10 and Booker at 3.

Who has raised the most money from the most contributors?

Sanders is first with $18 million; Harris is next with $12 million; Beto is third with $9 million in 18 days; and “Mayor Pete” is fourth with $7 million.

Warren, Klobuchar and Gillibrand have yet to file reports.

But the big takeaway from recent weeks is the sudden stunning vulnerability of the front-runner. Seven women have come forward to berate Biden for unwanted and offensive touching and crowding. Joe is on the defensive. Some in the #MeToo movement want him gone.

He is also being slammed for decisions across his 36-year Senate career — opposing busing for integration, deserting Anita Hill in the Clarence Thomas hearings, supporting a racially discriminatory crime bill, voting to authorize George W. Bush to take us into war in Iraq.

And unkindest cut of all: Barack Obama’s stony silence about Joe’s candidacy.

The most compelling case for the 76-year-old ex-vice president is that he can win back Trump’s white working-class voters, and return Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania to the Democratic fold.

Thus a major drop in Biden’s polls could be terminal to his candidacy.

If Biden can’t guarantee a victory over Trump, why go with Joe?

Yet, if he fades away as a candidate, as he has done twice before, who emerges as front-runner? The 77-year-old Socialist Bernie Sanders. If Joe fades, Bernie and the comrades will have removed the last large roadblock to a socialist takeover of the national Democratic Party.

And what would then happen if the Democrats simply held the House, added three Senate seats and defeated Trump in 2020?

An all-out effort to abolish the Electoral College that is integral to the historic compromise that created our federal Union. Puerto Rico and D.C. would become states, giving Democrats four more Senators and making America a bilingual nation.

A drive would be on to give 16-year-olds and convicted felons the right to vote in federal elections, freezing Republicans out of power forever. A packing of the Supreme Court would begin by raising by six the number of justices and elevating liberal activists to the new seats.

On the southern border, where 100,000 illegal migrants were apprehended in March, Trump’s wall would come down, all peoples fleeing repression in Central America would be welcomed into the U.S., sanctuary cities would become the norm, and ICE would be abolished.

Open borders would be a reality, along with amnesty for the 12 million-20 million people here illegally, with a path to citizenship for all.

It is impossible to see how the U.S. border would ever be secured.

The Green New Deal would be enacted. Medicare for all. Free tuition for college students. Millennial college debts paid off by the government. Free pre-K schooling and day care. Guaranteed jobs for all. A guaranteed living wage. Repeal of the Reagan and Trump tax cuts. A re-raising of the corporate rate and a return of the top rate for individuals to 70 percent. New wealth taxes on the rich.

With climate change seen as an existential planetary peril, fossil fuel-powered energy plants — coal, oil, natural gas — would be phased out and a new national reliance on solar and wind begun.

There would be reparations for slavery. Abortion on demand right up to birth for all women. Marijuana would be legalized. Harris has urged that prostitution, sex work, be legalized.

How would the Green New Deal be paid for?

Under “modern monetary theory,” currency is a public monopoly for the government, and unemployment is evidence that the monopoly is choking off the needed supply. So print the money necessary to get to rising wages, full employment and a booming economy.

To achieve Bernie Sanders’ Socialist America, the filibuster would have to be abolished, easily done, and the Constitution altered, requiring the support of three-fourths of the states, not so easy.

Yet, as of today, the unannounced front-runner Joe Biden, who is taking fire from many quarters, appears to be the last man standing between Sanders Socialism and the Democratic nomination.

Should Joe falter and fall, Trump would be the nation’s last line of defense against the coming of a Socialist America. For never-Trump conservatives, the day of reckoning may be just ahead.

General Michael Flynn may be the key to uncovering and prosecuting the Deep State attempted coup

Image source:“After 33 years of decorated service, Gen. Michael Flynn has been silenced by Robert Mueller ” — Conservative Review, https://www.conservativereview.com/news/after-33-years-of-decorated-service-gen-michael-flynn-has-been-silenced-by-robert-mueller/

=========================

American Thinker, by Thomas Lifson — April 5, 2019

Excerpt:

The Russia Hoax attempted coup involved senior figures in the “intelligence community,” the very people that Chuck Schumer, in a moment of candor, warned Donald Trump — before he was inaugurated as President — about opposing, suggesting that a sinister cabal of officials actually runs the country.  Speaking to Rachel Maddow, who became perhaps the most dedicated promoter of the hoax (for fun and ratings), he warned the incoming chief executive:

 “Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.

Even as obsessive Trump-hating promoters of the hoax like Adam Schiff and Jerrold Nadler continue to troll for evidence in the Mueller Report to use for impeachment, it is important to uncover the secret maneuvers to led to spying on the Trump campaign and the appointment of Mueller.

David P. Goldman, who often writes under the pen name of Spengler, has a very intriguing suggestion, at PJ Media, of the perfect person to run the campaign to hold the conspirators responsible for their treachery: General Michael Flynn: Read the whole thing, but here is some key information:

WATCH: Protester Jumps on Stage at LSU to Disrupt Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens’ TPUSA Speech

Image source: bsteaman screen capture

=======================

Breitbart, by ALANA MASTRANGEL — April 4, 2019

Excerpt:

Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens were speaking at a Louisiana State University event on Wednesday when a protester jumped on stage and proceeded to shout obscenities, while another protester in the audience shouted “death to white nationalism” at the two conservative pundits, one of whom is black.

Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder and Executive Director Charlie Kirk and Communication Director Candace Owens were delivering their remarks in an auditorium on Wednesday night at LSU when a protester jumped on stage and disrupted the event.

The protester, who stood on the opposite end of the stage from Kirk and Owens, began to shout obscenities with her hands raised in the air, until she was eventually escorted off the stage by campus police officers. The incident was captured on video.

“We would like to have a conversation with you,” said Owens several times to the protester.

“You are racist,” shouted the protester.

Moments later, the protester was escorted off the stage by campus police, at which point a second protester — who students say is a member of the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) group at LSU — can be heard chanting “death to white nationalism.”

Mississippi College TPUSA chapter president Evan Sanders, who captured the video from the audience, told Breitbart News that Kirk had been speaking about American exceptionalism moments before the protester jumped onto the stage.

Flashback 2017: Obama’s Half-Brother Malik Tweets Obama’s KENYAN Birth Certificate

DC CLOTHESLINE, by Dean Garrison* — April 1, 2019

Excerpt:

… many Americans still wonder if he was trying to tell us something with that March 2017 tweet, without having to come out and say it directly.

The Obama Kenyan birth certificate has been claimed a forgery.

Malik Obama was born in 1958 in Nairobi Kenya. He was 3 years old when Barack was born.

To trust the memories of a 3-year old would be an obvious stretch. But others in the Obama family have made claims of a Kenyan birth, including his own grandmother. She claims she was there.

Israel National News reported in 2008:

Someone is lying.  According to Obama’s Kenyan (paternal) grandmother, as well as his half-brother and half-sister, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Kenya, not in Hawaii as the Democratic candidate for president claims.  His grandmother bragged that her grandson is about to be President of the United States and is so proud because she was present DURING HIS BIRTH IN KENYA, in the delivery room.  -This, according to several news sites and Pennsylvania attorney Philip J. Berg (see video below) who is, surprisingly, a life long democrat himself.  Berg is the former Deputy Attorney General of Pennsylvania, and he has an impressive background in his activities as a democrat, but his support for the party seemingly stops when it comes to his trust in Barack Hussein Obama.

The video has been scrubbed.

Isn’t it funny how controversial items have a way of getting lost on the internet?

“POP” — Obama’s disturbing poem on man-boy relationship

DC CLOTHESLINE, by Dr. Eowyn — April 3, 2019

Excerpt:

This post originally appeared at Fellowship of the Minds. Pulled from the archives: May 2013. Please note that FOTM has been forced to move twice, so broken links should be expected.

When Barack Obama was a 19-year-old student at Occidental College, he published two poems in the Spring 1982 issue of Occidental’s literary magazine, Feast. One is the cringe-worthy “Underground” about “apes that eat figs.” The other poem, “Pop,” is much more interesting, biographical, and disturbing.

“Pop”

Sitting in his seat, a seat broad and broken
In, sprinkled with ashes,
Pop switches channels, takes another
Shot of Seagrams, neat, and asks

What to do with me, a green young man

Limit, Leverage, and Compete: A New Strategy on China

Construction workers install the final piece of steel for the roof structure of Arthur Ashe Stadium at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City on June 10, 2015.

Center for American Progress, by Melanie Hart and Kelly Magsamen — April 3, 2019

Excerpt:

Introduction and summary

The greatest geopolitical challenge in the 21st century will be how the United States—and the rest of the world—responds to the rise of China. China’s gross domestic product (GDP), when measured in domestic purchasing power (purchasing power parity), already surpasses that of the United States. It is now, by some measures, the dominant global economic power and is mobilizing that wealth to pursue its own vision for the international system. The central contest of this century will be between the U.S. model of political and economic development and the Chinese model of political and economic development. If China’s vision prevails—if it becomes the dominant power of the 21st century—there is a risk the United States and the world will be less free, less prosperous, and less safe. The United States does not need to engage China in a zero-sum Cold War to avoid this outcome. However, it does need to put its own ideas on the table internationally, advocate for that vision, reassert global leadership, and rectify a pattern of serious missteps at home.

The United States should be well-equipped to address the challenges China is posing, but it has been hindered by decades of strategic inertia. Since the early 2000s—when China joined the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the United States launched wars in Afghanistan and Iraq—the United States has pursued a strategy that is fundamentally flawed. Instead of channeling public resources to support American innovation and invest in American workers, Washington assumed the United States could coast on a combination of natural comparative advantages and status quo technology dominance, much of which stemmed from investments made decades earlier. That approach has not worked. China is investing heavily in emerging technology sectors—such as artificial intelligence and next-generation mobile communication—to successfully chip away at U.S. technology leadership and global market share. However, in the United States, many U.S. workers are unable to find good jobs in the information economy. In sum, the United States has lagged on the very areas of strength it needs to compete against an increasingly powerful China.

Venezuela Now!

Canada Free Press, by Dr. Alexander Nussbaum — April 3, 2019

Excerpt:

My late father had the privilege of living in a socialist paradise, Stalin’s Soviet Union. He had many stories of the wonders he saw. Unfortunately I was young and stupid and did not record all of them. He could go on for literally hours, and I thought I would have a father forever.  I remember only four, which I will relate. For while Liberals refuse to acknowledge an objective past, Conservatives carefully learn its lessons.

Comrades trying to survive a brutal Russian winter were not provided enough wood to keep themselves warm. A beautiful new wooden fence was built, slave labor of course. At night everybody passing by would, under penalty of death, remove a plank. The piece of wood provided enough heat to keep them alive a little longer. Soon the fence was gone.

This is the future of your children and grandchildren in Ocasio-Cortez’s “peoples republic”

Toilet paper was too good for the comrades. My father’s family, his parents and siblings, were already exterminated by the Germans (with the complicity of all of Europe) by this point. He was with his closest living “relative”, an uncle by marriage. Paper in any form was not available, but the official communist writings, attributed to Stalin, were sold very cheaply. This man got the idea to buy a bunch of these pamphlets and use them as toilet paper.  Except the authorities got suspicious why he was buying so much. They called him in for questioning, Of course if the true reason came out, he would be executed.  Using quick wits, he said he bought them to distribute to children and survived.

FACT CHECK: Ilhan Omar Says It’s A ‘Myth’ That Transgender Women Have A ‘Competitive Advantage’ In Powerlifting

CHECKYOURFACT, by Caitlin McFall | Contributor — March 2, 2019

Excerpt:

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s comments have gotten her into hot water recently, but she also said something that largely slipped under the radar – that it’s a “myth” and “unscientific” that transgender women have a “direct competitive advantage” in women’s powerlifting.

Omar wrote a letter to USA Powerlifting after it refused to let a transgender women enter a Minnesota competition.

“I urge you to reconsider this discriminatory, unscientific policy and follow the example of the International Olympic Committee,” she said. “The myth that transgender women have a ‘direct competitive advantage’ is not supported by medical science, and it continues to stoke fear and violence against one of the most at-risk committees in the world.”
