Citizen Activists Protest Dirty Clinton Deal Handing Over Critical U.S. Port to Terror-Tied Interests

By Daniel Greenfield

You may remember the Dubai Ports World controversy, but while that deal became a high profile controversy because it happened under Bush, another UAE company has moved in on an even more significant port.

Beginning next month, ocean shipping container operations at Florida’s deep-water Port Canaveral, teeming with U.S. Navy nuclear submarines, NATO-ally nuclear submarines, and record numbers of cruise ships, and situated close to Kennedy Space Center, will be controlled by Gulftainer, a foreign company from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with close ties to former President Bill Clinton.

Port Canaveral is home to critical national security operations and infrastructure. A plethora of space and defense installations and programs, many of them highly classified, are situated either inside the port or within the immediate vicinity:

The Democrats who objected to the DPW deal have kept quiet and waved it through.

Is Ted Cruz Too Smart to Be President?

By Dan Friedman

Consider this a free seminar on the intricacies of enacting a trade deal in Congress.

Only last week the media was all atwitter about Cruz jumping the Conservative ship, and voting to support (parts of) Obama’s pacific trade pact. This is complicated stuff, and not very sexy. You simply can’t explain it with a sound bite. But listen to this twenty-minute radio interview with Cruz as he brilliantly breaks down his position and in the process teaches us a lot about foreign trade, the Congressional process, and himself.

People who question Ted Cruz’s “electability” are missing the point. The question isn’t whether or not he can win, but what happens to us if he doesn’t.

GREEN BERET HERO FACES COURT MARTIAL: He Reported on Illegal Ransom Paid for Bowe Bergdahl

By Sara Noble

A Green Beret and a real American war hero, Lt. Col. Jason Amerine, exposed illegal and amoral activities by the Obama administration worthy of a tinpot dictatorship that took place over the Bergdahl swap. A complaint about an illegal ransom of about $2 billion paid for Bergdahl in addition to swapping five dangerous Taliban thugs implicated the DOD and the DOJ.

Amerine told Congress, which is well within his legal rights. In fact, it was his duty.

Because this brave man told the truth, he is facing a court-martial.

DIABOLICAL: Obama now wants to fundamentally transform your neighborhood (into a ghetto)

By Terresa Monroe-Hamilton

Obama is now making offers to debt-ridden municipalities that they dare not take. It’s like the devil offering you a way out and then collecting on that debt. Or, if you prefer, it’s like the mafia giving you money to solve your problems and then you owe them. Forever. The leaders in these areas won’t ask the residents and voters, they’ll let the silver cross their palms and will be blinded by the shininess of the coin they pocket. Corruption will finish selling free America down the proverbial river. I’ll be blunt… these municipalities should not be taking money from the feds. They should solve their problems at the local level, stand on their own and not be beholden to a governmental behemoth.

Under the guise of Obama’s Utopia, our president has been plotting for years the ultimate wealth redistribution here in America. It’s Marxist social and demographic engineering on a breathtaking scale. I believe this is the most insidious thing he has planned for us and it is a killer.

Obama believes the suburbs and wealthier neighborhoods are far too white. They are not racially diverse enough for his tastes. So, he is now going to municipalities that are sorely in need of funds and very much in debt up to their eyeballs, and offering them a way out. Say they are $5 or $10 million in the hole… well, the feds will give them $50 million. All they have to do is buy some land in an upscale area; sell it to a contractor that will build affordable housing and the government will take care of the rest. They will bring in minorities, the poor and disadvantaged… but even more importantly, liberal voters who will vote for Marxist policies. They will also resettle Islamic refugees and immigrants from across our southern border throughout these neighborhoods, leveling the demographic playing field into one huge ghetto from sea to shining sea. Just ask Sweden and the Netherlands how that has worked out for them.

FEDERAL COURT TO IRS: Produce Lois Lerner Emails... Today!

By Judicial Watch

Calling all conservative activists, citizens and groups who were silenced and harassed by the Obama Internal Revenue Service in the run-up to the 2012 elections and beyond — you should know that we have moved a few steps closer to holding the Obama administration accountable for its criminal misuse of the federal tax-collecting agency.

We are pleased to announce that Judge Emmet Sullivan of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia granted a Judicial Watch request to issue an order requiring the IRS to provide answers by June 12, 2015, on the status of the Lois Lerner emails the IRS had previously declared lost. Judicial Watch raised questions about the IRS’ handling of the missing emails issue in a June 2 court filing, demanding answers about Lois Lerner’s emails, which had been recovered from backup tapes. Judge Sullivan issued the court order on June 4, 2015.

In its June 2 filing, Judicial Watch detailed:

Baby Jihad

By Raymond Ibrahim

In 1900, the Muslim population of the world was less than 200 million. Conversely, the Christian population of the world was almost 560 million—almost three times the number of Muslims.

Times have changed. According to the findings of a Pew Research Center in America:

The number of Muslims will increase at more than double the rate of the world’s population, which is expected to rise by 35 per cent in the next four decades.

There will be more Muslims than Christians in the world in less than sixty years, new research revealed.

The [Islamic] religion’s share of the world’s population will equal the Christian share – at roughly 32 per cent each – in 2070, analysis by the Pew Research Center showed.

[…]

By 2050 Muslims will make up around ten per cent of Europe’s population.

For a better idea of what is in store for Europe, simply look to the UK’s “Londonistan”—the apt name for London and other regions with a notable Muslim presence: Already with a 10 percent Muslim population, Londonistan is a reflection of Europe 35 years from now when it too is projected to be ten percent Muslim (and by which time the UK will likely have an even much larger Muslim population).

The same sorts of anti-infidel violence and sexual abuse that is a daily fixture in Muslim majority nations is already a normal feature of Londonistan with its mere 10 percent Muslim minority.

Put differently, if “ISIS” and other Islamic groups regularly behead “infidel” men and sexually enslave “infidel” women in the Middle East—so are “average” Muslims doing so in the UK:

SURE, WHY NOT? Clinton Crime Fund Taps "Mistress of Disaster" Jamie Gorelick as Defense Counsel

No, it's not a headline from The Onion. It's real. And it's spectacular:

Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation are asking a federal judge in Florida to toss out a conservative legal activist's lawsuit claiming the former secretary of state used her private email account and the promise of changes in U.S. foreign policy to shake people down for speaking fees and donations to the foundation.

The Clinton Foundation has also pulled in a legal big-gun, former Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick [Ed: "The Mistress of Disaster"], to lead its defense against the racketeering suit filed in March by Larry Klayman of Freedom Watch.

In her first filing in the case last week, Gorelick — a partner at D.C. law firm Wilmer Hale — called the claims in the lawsuit "fatuous." She argued that Klayman's grievance is derived from what he contends were incomplete responses to Freedom of Information Act requests his organization filed with the State Department. Klayman contends those responses could not have been complete because Hillary Clinton used a private email account and server for all her email and only returned some of her messages to the department at its request last year.

Gorelick and longtime Clinton personal lawyer David Kendall argued in separate motions filed last week with U.S. District Judge Donald Middlebrooks that any of Klayman's issues with the FOIA responses should be resolved through litigation pending in Washington against the State Department, not through a racketeering lawsuit against the Clintons personally and the foundation... "Plaintiff has no constitutional right to Secretary Clinton’s e-mail," Kendall wrote in a parallel motion filed by the Clintons.

Gorelick is known worldwide as "The Mistress of Disaster" for her involvement in not one, but two, trillion-dollar disasters.

Oh, and Politiho's Josh Gerstein notes that Gorelick's last federal litigation experience was also a catastrophe: she represented Duke University in its infamous persecution of the school's lacrosse team for rapes that never occurred.

Duke was forced to settle with members of the team after Gorelick's stellar work.

Come to think of it, the Clinton Crime Fund's employment of Gorelick may be the best thing that could have happened. For us.

At what point does a President’s actions become treason?

Writing at the Wall Street Journal, Jay Solomon proffers "U.S. Strategy in Lebanon Stirs Fears":
Critics say Washington’s funding cut for a program in Lebanon to develop alternative Shiite political voices to Hezbollah is an effort to appease Iran...Coming on the heels of an expected deal with Iran, it is bound to generate much speculation about possible ulterior motives.

AMMAN, Jordan—The U.S. cut funding for a civil society program in Lebanon that seeks to develop alternative Shiite political voices to Hezbollah, the powerful Iranian-backed militia and political party.

The group that received the U.S. support and critics said that the Obama administration was curtailing its efforts to counter Hezbollah to avoid confronting Shiite Iran, with which it is negotiating to conclude a historic nuclear accord this month.

These people say the funding cut imperils a program that underpinned criticism in Lebanon of Hezbollah’s growing role in supporting President Bashar al-Assad in Syria’s civil war... "We are more immediately worried about the message this sends to Shia communities, in Lebanon and the region, about their options for the future," said Lokman Slim, director of Hayya Bina, the organization that lost the funding.

...the U.S. move feeds into an increasingly alarmed narrative held by many Arab leaders who say that U.S. and Iranian interests appear increasingly aligned—at their expense. Both Washington and Tehran are fighting Islamic State forces in Iraq and Syria, with U.S. conducting airstrikes against the militants, but notably not against Mr. Assad’s Iran-backed regime.

Hezbollah, which the U.S. classifies as a terror organization, receives extensive funding and arms from Iran. It has deployed 10,000 soldiers in Syria to back Mr. Assad’s forces and counter Islamic State, U.S. officials estimate.

Saudi Arabia’s leadership, which supports the exiled leader of Yemen, was concerned when the U.S. last month met secretly with the Iran-backed Houthi rebels there that caused him to flee.

Most significantly, the Obama administration is seeking to conclude a deal with Iran by June 30 to curb its nuclear program in exchange for a lifting of international sanctions.

I don't know how else to say it. Barack Obama seeks a nuclear Iran that has hegemony over the Middle East.

I leave his rationale as an exercise for the reader.
 
 

"Let me be perfectly clear: I have no frickin’ clue what I’m doing."

By Alan Caruba

The headline topping the Wednesday, June 10 Wall Street Journal read “Obama Set to Expand Troops in Iraq.” We are six years, 143 days into the two terms Barack Hussein Obama has served in the office of President of the United States and he is as clueless now as he was when he arrived on January 20, 2009.

“President Barack Obama is poised to send hundreds more American advisers to a new base in a strategic Iraqi region to help devise a counterattack against marauding Islamic State militants, U.S. officials said Tuesday, a shift that underscores American concern over recent battlefield losses.” It’s 450 “trainers.”

We have had losses because: (1) Obama was elected on a promise to end the conflict in Iraq and (2) reelected by pulling out troops to the point that the remaining Iraqi troops -- Shiites in the south --decided it wasn’t worth dying for their leaders. Can’t say I blame them, but dying at the hands of ninth century Islamic fanatics is the fate that threatens the entire Middle East, not just Iraq or what’s left of it.

This is how we lost the war in Vietnam. There was a time when Americans utterly destroyed their enemies on the battlefield. In the latter half of the last century, starting with the Korean War, we lost the will to completely engage with the enemy.

Huge AP Scoop Catches Obama With His Pants Around His Ankles (Not Reggie Love-related)

By Dan Friedman

Barack Obama was just caught red-handed lying through his teeth about the Iran deal and attempting to fool Congress and the American people about “sanctions.” I contend this takes us well beyond the point of questioning Obama’s judgment and brings us to the point of questioning his motives.

I fear if enough Americans continue to ignore what Obama is doing in broad daylight, we will become victims of the greatest scam since the Trojan Horse rolled into Troy – with similarly disastrous results only on a worldwide scale.

Read this explanation of the AP story first, and then go on to read the actual story below that.

There's a lot going on in this piece, it's 1,100 words, and it gets highly technical very early. But it's also functionally an expose of how the Obama administration is going to shred the entire sanctions regime despite having promised lawmakers the exact opposite, and so the story will rightly be driving the discussion for the next couple of days at least.

In short, the AP has must revealed two major scoops:

FBI: Uhm, remember Obama’s pre-election claim that 'mass shootings are up'? Yeah, that was a lie.

By Warner Todd Huston

Just before last year’s midterm elections, the Obama administration widely distributed an FBI “report” that claimed that mass shootings had increased. Obama used this “report” to flog his gun control ideas and to “prove” that Republicans were wrong on gun control in the wind up to the midterms. Now the FBI has been forced to admit that the report was “imperfect.”

The report was all over the news in September and October last year, only a month or so before the Nov. 4 election. At the time the authors claimed, “The findings establish an increasing frequency of incidents. During the first 7 years included in the study, an average of 6.4 incidents occurred annually. In the last 7 years of the study, that average increased to 16.4 incidents annually.”

But now that the elections are over, now the FBI can admit that the whole thing was a pile of lies.

But late last week, J. Pete Blair and M. Hunter Martaindale, two academics at Texas State University who co-authored the FBI report, acknowledged that “our data is imperfect.” They said that the news media “got it wrong” last year when they “mistakenly reported mass shootings were on the rise.”

Mind you, the authors did not issue this mea culpa in the major news outlets that supposedly misreported the original findings. Instead, the authors published it in ACJS Today, an academic journal published by the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences. “Because official data did not contain the information we needed, we had to develop our own,” wrote Messrs. Blair and Martaindale. “This required choices between various options with various strengths and weaknesses.” You don’t say.

Another of Obama’s "Dreamers" caps off a life of crime with mass murder

By Mark Krikorian

The Washington Times reports that Immigration and Customs Enforcement has flagged Darron Wint for deportation, should he ever be released from prison. That’s unlikely, since he murdered four people, including a 10-year-old boy who was tortured first, in the Washington, D.C., “Mansion Murders.”

Though ICE’s action is a necessary formality, to call it a day late and a dollar short is a ghoulish understatement. Little has been reported about how Wint got here, other than he came, legally, from Guyana in 2000 at age 20, probably under one of the family categories.

But the relevant question here is why this depraved monster was allowed to remain in the United States?

It’s been obvious for a decade that Wint was an undesirable alien who should have been sent back. “Wint has had more than 30 brushes with the law, including serious charges starting in 2005 as well as minor charges,” according to a news report. He had two restraining orders filed against him, in 2005 and 2006, for threats of violence against others, including his father, stepmother, and younger sister. Since then he’s had several assault convictions, plus multiple arrests for beating his girlfriend, stabbing a man, assaulting a woman at a nightclub, burglary, theft, vandalism, and showing up at his workplace with a machete and a BB gun. He should have been escorted back to Guyana years ago, long before he capped off his life of crime with mass murder.
