CHICAGO: A Sanctuary City for Everyone But U.S. Citizens

By Daniel John Sobieski

One does not know if Chicago Mayor and former Obama White House Chief of Staff Rahm “Rahmbo” Emanuel ever met the family of Dennis McCann of Chicago. He can’t talk to McCann himself about Chicago’s lawsuit against DOJ enforcement of federal immigration laws since McCann is dead, killed by an illegal alien who was driving drunk. As Jessica Vaughan reported at the Center for Immigration Studies:

In June 2011, an illegal alien and habitual drunk driver named Saul Chavez ran over and killed Dennis McCann, of Chicago. Chavez had recently finished a sentence of two years of probation for an earlier aggravated drunk driving offense. The judge set bond at $250,000, and ICE issued a detainer, but just before Thanksgiving, Chavez's brother appeared with the $25,000 cash, so the sheriff's office took the money and let Chavez run. After Chavez missed a court date (surprise!), police paid a visit to his house to take him back into custody. His roommate, the brother, insists he's just out running errands, but police have concluded that he has fled….

RUH ROH: Judiciary Committee Seeks Immigration Files For Pakistani Democrat IT Hackers

By Mark Tapscott

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley has requested copies of immigration files for the six Pakistani suspects in the House IT scandal, who allegedly stole equipment from Congress and accessed computers without permission.

Grassley is seeking more information on Imran Awan, his wife, his two brothers and two of his close friends in connection to the scandal. Capitol police have accused Awan and his associates of violating congressional security policies and stealing equipment from Congress. Awan is from Pakistan, and was arrested by the FBI in July as he boarded a flight to the country.

SEND IN THE OBAMA CLONES: The Demise of the Democrat Party

By Daniel Greenfield

Bill Clinton was almost certainly the last Southern Democrat to sit in the White House. Obama took Arkansas from a Democrat trifecta to a Republican trifecta. Trump beat Hillary on her husband’s home turf by 60% to 33%. But Bill may also be the last white Democrat to make it to the White House.

Democrats have three choices in 2020.

While Trashing Trump, Apple Sells Its Soul To Do Business In China

By Eric Lieberman and Ryan Pickrell

Tech giant Apple Inc. is increasingly caving to the demands of communist China in order to stay in a market where it is losing ground and advancing authoritarian objectives in exchange for short-term profits and, potentially, long-term losses.

China is Apple’s second-largest market and could eventually become the company’s biggest market, but Apple’s China sales are declining. As the company struggles to maintain a share of the Chinese market, it has increasingly kowtowed to Beijing, delivering blow after blow to internet freedom, human rights causes, and fair-market practices. At the same time, its leadership continuously criticizes the American president while harping on progressive causes at home.

The Fascist Roots of the Modern Left

By Dinesh D'Souza

In 1925 the Jewish philosopher Theodor Lessing spoke out against the repressive political climate of Weimar Germany.

Although Lessing’s explicit target was the cravenness of the Weimar regime of Paul von Hindenburg, his real target was the emerging power of Nazism, and he blamed the government for yielding to it.

The Nazis recognized immediately the threat posed by Lessing. Adolf Hitler youth at Lessing’s University of Hanover formed a “committee against Lessing.” They encouraged students to boycott his lectures.

Nazi youth then showed up and disrupted Lessing’s classes. Lessing was forced to give up his academic chair the following year.

In his account of what happened, Lessing later wrote that he could do nothing to prevent being “shouted down, threatened and denigrated” by student activists.

He was helpless, he said, “against the murderous bellowing of youngsters who accept no individual responsibilities but pose as spokesman for a group or an impersonal ideal, always talking in the royal ‘we’ while hurling personal insults … and claiming that everything is happening in the name of what’s true, good and beautiful.”

This was fascism, German style, in the 1920s.

DEAR BEN RHODES: Go to Jail. Go directly to Jail. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.

By Daniel John Sobieski

Somehow it does not surprise us that former Obama Deputy Security Adviser Ben Rhodes is now a “person of interest” in the probe of those who illegally leaked the names of Trump campaign members for political purposes. He joins others on Team Obama such as Susan Rice and Samantha Power in the unmasking scandal designed to subvert the Trump administration. This amounts, in many observers' opinions, to a silent coup. As Fox News Politics reports:

QOTD: "Congress should investigate the leaking of transcripts of calls between President Donald Trump and world leaders, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee said on Thursday. Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), called the leak “absolutely” troubling, arguing that it would cause potentially-serious complications to the White House’s ability to conduct foreign policy. “A president of the United States, a governor would tell us they've got to be able to have confidential conversations,” Warner told The Daily Beast in an interview.

“And I think it was disgraceful that those [came out].” On Thursday morning, the Washington Post published full transcripts of Trump’s calls with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull. The transcripts revealed tense exchanges and candid admissions from Trump about topics like refugee admissions and the border wall. But it was the act of leaking itself that shook national security experts who worried the publishing of transcripts would dramatically curtail Trumps ability to have candid, strategic exchanges with fellow world leaders." --Sam Stein

H.R. MCMASTER: Your Pro-Iran, Pro-Pakistan, Anti-Israel, McCain Ally in the Trump White House

By Caroline Glick

The Israel angle on McMaster's purge of Trump loyalists from the National Security Council is that all of these people are pro-Israel and oppose the Iran nuclear deal, positions that President Trump also holds.

McMaster in contrast is deeply hostile to Israel and to Trump.

According to senior officials aware of his behavior, he constantly refers to Israel as the occupying power and insists that a country named Palestine existed where Israel is located until 1948.

SNOW-FLAKE: Weekly Sub-Standard Throws Hissy Fit over Mark Levin and Conservative Review

Suddenly, there’s a fight in the conservative movement over … Jeff Flake.

Jonathan Last, digital editor at the Weekly Standard, has taken aim at this humble publication for having the temerity to call balls and strikes with the Conservative Review Liberty Score. Are we really racing to the precipice of a schism over a one-term back-bench senator from Arizona, punching above his status? Are we really going to start infighting in the conservative movement over Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz. (53%, F)? Last apparently thinks it’s worth it … all because senators like Susan Collins have lower Liberty Scores than, gasp, Elizabeth Warren. And he has no idea why. Oh no!

AHEM, AN ACTUAL SCANDAL: Hillary Bullied Tiny Bangladesh To Help a Clinton Foundation Donor

By Richard Pollock

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton attempted to bully tiny Bangladesh to force it to end a corruption investigation of Mohammad Yunus, a long-time Clinton family friend and Clinton Foundation donor, according to documents The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group obtained.

The information comes from two Bangladeshi government documents generated as part of a request from the U.S. Congress. They shed new, disturbing light on Clinton’s use of hard-ball tactics against the poorest country in South Asia in order to help her millionaire friend and foundation donor.

MARK LEVIN: Progressives --- the Mortal Enemies of Americanism

By Mark R. Levin

The civil society predates the constitutional order.

Its subjugation and transformation by a voracious and an unappeasable administrative state is the true object of the progressive ideologue.

But the purpose of a constitution, or at least the American Constitution, is to secure politically the human harmony within the civil society so that individual liberty, equal justice, and the civil order may be nurtured and maintained.

The difficulty, as James Madison explained in Federalist 51, is to bring order to liberty and liberty to order:

But what is government itself, but the greatest of all reflections on human nature? If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.

In the Declaration of Independence, the Founders proclaimed “[t]hat to secure these [unalienable] rights [to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness], Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

They went on to say what was intolerable.

HOUSE JUDICIARY MEMBER: Mueller Must Resign Over Conflict --- "Clear Violation Of Federal Code"

By Tyler Durden

House Judiciary Committee member Representative Trent Franks (R-AZ) is calling on Robert Mueller, special counsel for the Department of Justice’s Russia investigation, to resign over a "conflict of interest" resulting from a personal relationship with James Comey -- a person of interest in the investigation.  Per the Washington Examiner:

"Bob Mueller is in clear violation of federal code and must resign to maintain the integrity of the investigation into alleged Russian ties," Franks said. "Those who worked under them have attested he and Jim Comey possess a close friendship, and they have delivered on-the-record statements effusing praise of one another."

The Senate Judiciary Committee sent a letter to Attorney General Jeff Sessions this past week asking for an investigation into a number of Democrats including Hillary Clinton. ABC News says that Hillary lost the election and, therefore, should not be investigated.

That must be a new legal guideline. If they lose, they get away with whatever crimes they may have committed?
