One
of the biggest points in Trump’s detailed immigration plan, is ending
birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants – anchor
babies. Many, many Americans have stood against this practice for as
long as I can remember. If a child is born on American soil, under this
practice, they are automatically American citizens, even […]
FOX News host Megyn Kelly announced tonight at the end of her show
that she will be going on a much needed vacation for the next
week-and-a-half. Kelly has had a rough go this past week since the record-setting Republican primary debate.
Kelly reportedly received several threats after her performance at last week’s debate.
Bill Clinton reportedly told Jeb Bush in July, “this Trump thing will be taken care of.”
{Editors note: Pretty strong words wouldn't you say?}
Bush was concerned with Trump’s rising popularity that continues to
rise despite the best efforts of the liberal media and Republican
elites.
Note: This the second public report where the Clinton people say Jeb
Bush would be the easiest Republican to beat in a general election.
The DC Whispers reported this back in July, via Free Republic:
The call for help has even been issued to Jeb Bush’s seeming
Democratic rival – Team Clinton. Apparently Bush operatives believe that
between the two political dynasties and their many supporters among the
Mainstream Media and corporate business world, the Trump threat can be
quickly terminated before it grows into a legitimate challenge to the
seemingly pre-determined Bush vs Clinton 2016 showdown.
A D.C. Whispers source put it this way:
“It’s said that Hillary Clinton wants nothing to do with Donald Trump.
To most they just call him a clown, but privately they’re afraid of him.
The Clinton team doesn’t fear Jeb Bush because they know what they are
up against and that lack of fear is mutual among the Bush operation as
well. They both run in similar circles politically and financially, so
it’s a choice of shades of the same color and that’s how they want to
keep it.”
Donald Trump is the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination in part because of his remarkable boldness and a self-confidence.
He showed this again during a phone appearance on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday. He told host Jonathan Karl that President Barack Obama had done “absolutely nothing” for the black community.
In an interview with Britain’s BBC, President Obama said that
Americans having guns and observing their Second Amendment rights is far
worse than Muslim terrorism.
In the interview Obama lamented that he has not been able to put an
end to the Second Amendment and noted that Americans are worse than
terrorists.
Obama’s exact words: “If you look at the number of Americans killed
since 9/11 by terrorism, it’s less than 100. If you look at the number
that have been killed by gun violence, it’s in the tens of thousands.”
In the lead up to this statement, Obama mentioned “mass killings”
with guns but did not mention mass killings or attempted mass killings
in which those holding the guns were jihadists.
He said, “The United States of America is the one advanced nation on
earth in which we do not have sufficient common-sense, gun-safety laws.”
However, it is not that America does not have gun control. Rather, it
is that Americans increasingly see that gun control does not stop
criminals from acting out their criminality, therefore support for more
gun laws has waned.
Note that he doesn’t point out that it is black gangs in the inner
city doing most all of this killing with guns. They are the terrorists.
It isn’t merely “gun owners” doing all this killing as Obama frames the
point.
Obama thinks you are worse than terrorists, America. right wing news

From the Conservative Tribune: A top U.S. Army general with nothing left to lose has publicly
admitted something that conservatives have been saying for a long time —
the rise of the Islamic State terror group can be directly attributed
to President Barack Obama’s premature withdrawal of U.S. military forces
from Iraq.
Outgoing Army Chief of Staff Gen. Ray Odierno told Fox News on
Wednesday that a continued U.S. troop presence in the region would have
kept Iraq on a positive track.
“It’s frustrating to watch it,” Odierno said. “I go back to the work
we did in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 and we got it to a place that was
really good. Violence was low, the economy was growing, politics looked
like it was heading in the right direction.”
“I think it would have been good for us to stay,” he said, adding
that he had recommended leaving 30,000-35,000 U.S. personnel in Iraq — a
recommendation that Obama, in his rush to keep an ill-considered
campaign promise to his base, ignored.
“If we had stayed a little more engaged, I think maybe it might have
been prevented,” Odierno told Fox News. “I’ve always believed the United
States played the role of honest broker between all the groups and when
we pulled ourselves out, we lost that role.”
Obama and both sides of the political aisle, for that matter, will do
just about anything to shut Donald Trump up about illegal immigration.
Even going so far as to have the FAA rename three navigation points that
had previously been named after The Donald. Censorship much?
Discrimination much? You know what… it’s hard to intimidate a man worth
$9 billion dollars. He doesn’t give a crap. Trump is the honey badger of
politics. He has his sights set on the White House and he knows what
Americans want – they want their country back… they want their
Constitution reinstated… and they want their freedoms once again. So,
Obama and the Washington Cartel can rename all the agencies, monuments
and places they want… we want to re-designate America as the greatest
nation on earth once more. A conservative is needed to do the job and
Americans are demanding it now by the millions.
This Thursday, President Barack Hussein Obama’s Federal Aviation
Administration announced plans “to rename three navigation points near
Palm Beach International Airport in Florida” that it had previously
named after 2016 presidential candidate Donald Trump.
The points, which were named DONLD, TRMMP and UFIRED, were reportedly to be replaced with “non-controversial” names.
It was obvious that the FAA purposefully chose to rename them in
response to allegedly offensive comments Trump made the other week about
illegal immigrants.
Hey, media, Donald Trump will take your apology now for scoffing when he says illegals are all too often of the criminal class. Why? Because now we find out that nearly half of all criminal cases filed by the government are filed in the five districts on the southern border, those districts that just happen to have the most illegals. The media (and some compliant, foolish Republicans) have been attacking Trump for saying that too many illegals streaming across our border are the least desirable types and that all too often they are criminals far and above merely breaking our immigration laws.
“It will be big. We will hit the kuffar (unbelievers) hard
InshAllah.” Not that this has anything to do with Islam, as everyone
from Obama to Cameron to Tony Abbott tell us. Can the West survive this
refusal to face reality?
“US Officials Warn of ISIS Attacks on July 4,” by Tzvi Ben-Gedalyahu, Jewish Press, June 27, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
American police forces from coast to coast are on alert from federal
officials that the Islamic State (ISIS) is planning to terrorize the
country during the July 4 Independence Day holiday.
Editor's note; While we are on this subject those that are planning on shooting off "Fireworks", Please be respectful of our Veterans, Pets, and Wildlife. For some of Our Veterans, the loud booms are a reminder of the War experiences that have left them scarred with PTSD. Shooting fireworks off before and after the Holiday is not necessary. Your home and wildlife might be 'unsettled' also. Just be considerate and have a safe celebration. Thank You.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Thieves used an online service provided by the IRS
to gain access to information from more than 100,000 taxpayers, the
agency said Tuesday. The information included tax returns and other tax information on file with the IRS.
The IRS said the thieves accessed a system called “Get
Transcript.” In order to access the information, the thieves cleared a
security screen that required knowledge about the taxpayer, including
Social Security number, date of birth, tax filing status and street
address.
“The IRS notes this issue does not involve its main computer system
that handles tax filing submission; that system remains secure,” the
agency said in a statement.
The IRS said thieves targeted the system from February to mid-May. The service has been temporarily shut down.
“In all, about 200,000 attempts were made from questionable email
domains, with more than 100,000 of those attempts successfully clearing
authentication hurdles,” the agency said. “During this filing season,
taxpayers successfully and safely downloaded a total of approximately 23
million transcripts.”
Tax returns can include a host of personal information that can help
someone steal an identity, including Social Security numbers and
birthdates of dependents and spouses. However, the IRS said the thieves
appeared to already have a lot of personal information about the
victims.
The IRS said it is notifying taxpayers whose information was accessed. theblaze
In June 2014, an 11-year-old boy visited Normandy, France for the 70th anniversary of the D-Day invasion. As part of the boy’s personal project, titled “Project Vigil,” this little boy spent four days teaching visitors and tourists about three paratroopers who had been buried in the American Cemetery.
During the official D-Day celebration, local police didn’t allow the boy to enter the cemetery in his WWII-style uniform. So the boy took his American flag down to Omaha Beach and planted it in the sand. Staring out at the ocean, the little boy wanted to thank all the Americans who died 70 years earlier in the fight against fascism and evil.
As the young boy struggled to hold the flag steady in the forceful wind, he suddenly witnessed a vision of American infantry soldiers heading bravely towards their fate on the morning of June 6, 1944. Gazing across the English Channel, and so moved by this vision, he brought up his hand to salute the past.

The FBI currently has hundreds of investigations of potential homegrown terrorists under way, with cases open in every state.
FBI Director James Comey warned that there are as many as “thousands”
of people inside the United States taking in ISIS’ online “poison.”
“We have a very hard task” in trying to identify and stop
anyone inspired to launch an attack inside the U.S. homeland, Comey
said.
Comey noted as recently as two years ago that the FBI could focus
on tracking those within the U.S. who visited jihadi websites, but a
shift to social media by ISIS sympathizers has changed all that.
The director told ABC News: “It’s
almost as if there is a devil sitting on the shoulder saying, ‘Kill,
kill, kill, kill’ all day long…[They are] recruiting and tasking at the
same time. … In a way, the old paradigm between ‘inspired’ and
‘directed’ breaks down here.”
As reported by Western Journalism,
that scenario is exactly what happened in the Texas Terror attack. The
two perpetrators, Elton Simpson and Nadir Hamid Soofi (his roommate),
were inspired and perhaps even received directions to carry it out

Thanks to a Freedom of Information Act Lawsuit
pursued against the Department of Justice by government watchdog
Judicial Watch, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia has
ruled documents being withheld from Congress under President Obama’s
claim of executive privilege must be turned over. Obama made the claim
on the same day Attorney General Eric Holder was voted in criminal and
civil contempt of Congress in June 2012.
“This order forces the Obama DOJ, for the first time, to provide a
detailed listing of all documents that it has withheld from Congress and
the American people for years about the deadly Fast and Furious gun
running scandal,” Judicial Watch released in a statement.
The FOIA lawsuit has been ongoing for 16-months and is now proceeding
after a lengthy delay. The Justice Department originally asked the
court for an indefinite hold on a FOIA request from Judicial Watch,
citing executive privilege and an ongoing investigation. That indefinite
hold request was shot down more than a year ago.
The documentation DOJ is required to now turn over is a “Vaughn
index” of “all requested Fast and Furious materials from a June 2012
Judicial Watch FOIA request.”
A Vaughn index must: (1) identify each document withheld; (2) state
the statutory exemption claimed; and (3) explain how disclosure would
damage the interests protected by the claimed exemption.” In ordering
the DOJ to provide Judicial Watch the Vaughn index, the Court ruled, “In
this circuit, when an agency is withholding documents under exemption
claims, courts require that the agency provide a Vaughn index so that
the FOIA requester – at a distinct informational disadvantage – may test
the agency’s claims.”
“Once again, Judicial Watch has beat Congress to the punch in getting
key information about another Obama scandal – this time, the Fast and
Furious outrage,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a
statement. “A federal court has ordered the Obama administration to
produce information that could, for the first time, provide specific
details who in the administration is responsible for Fast and Furious
lies to Congress and the American people. This is a battle that put Eric
Holder in contempt of Congress, saw Nixonian assertions of executive
privilege by Barack Obama, and a hapless Congress in face of all this
lawlessness. Finally, we may get some accountability for Border Patrol
Agent Brian Terry and the countless others murdered as a result of the
insanely reckless Obama administration program.”
