  • How the media are doing everything they can to confuse the living daylights out of you

    Failing After President Trump’s press conference last week, the liberal media went into its normal meltdown since he did not do it their way. You know, pandering to them because they are supposed to be the elites of media, they want to set the narrative in the media with their leading and off-priority questions, and not once being able to get a collective gotcha question to put the president on defense.
  • Trudeau Gives Preference to Islam over all other Religions in Canada

    I predict this will not end well for Trudeau and his Liberals Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau and his Liberal government have just committed a major political blunder which in the long term will hurt Trudeau and his Liberal party in their re-election efforts. Trudeau and his Liberals have started a process of developing, issuing and then passing a law which will give preferential treatment to Islam and all followers and adherents of Islam in Canada over all other Canadian religious groups, including Canadian Protestants, Catholics, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus and Sikhs, just to name a few of the major religious faiths...
  • OFA Made the DNC DOA: Obama’s Community Organization Ruined the Democratic Party

    Canada Free Press ^ | 02/20/17 | Arthur Christopher Schaper
    OFA is DOA to Democratic Party operatives. If they don't control those unprincipled activists, the DNC will be DOA next! Well, this is welcome news, isn’t it? Organizing for Action has turned into a big fat failure for the Democratic Party. Who would have guessed? Those obnoxious organizers are so out of touch with reality. They don’t seem to recognize that working men and women of all backgrounds are barely making ends meet. Democrats really believed that a bunch of spoiled, screaming razor-blade snowflakes invading town halls and lecturing people about their Western, white privilege was going to be well-received.
  • Is The Obama Administration … Fully Operational?

    Activist Post ^ | 2/19/2017 | Bernie Suarez
    Incredible as it seems it is now widely reported that Barack Obama never left. That’s right. He is parking himself in Washington D.C. and will run an operation fully dedicated to sabotaging President Donald Trump as if the current deep state war to sabotage Trump is not enough. Of course one would be foolish to think that one sabotage effort is somehow independent of the other. No one should be that naive. Americans must realize that we are on the cusp of something. Some say civil war, the mainstream media calls it “chaos,” truth seekers (like yours truly) call it...
  • OPEN Letter To Senator Chuck Schumer – WAKE UP, SCHUMER To The Facts!

    IWB ^ | Pamela Williams
    The following letter is an open letter to Senator Chuck Schumer. I did not write it, but I wish that I had. I am listing a video, which speaks for itself. What Senator Chuck Schumer said and did on National TV was beyond the pale. If you did not see what he said on THE RACHEL MADDOW SHOW, you will see it on the video. The following letter does not address this, but it is a rare and brilliant summary of the many facts that Senator Chuck Schumer needs to understand. In my opinion, Schumer needs to stop needling President...

    All of these forces, individually or collectively, are simply not as smart, as savvy, as powerful, or as persuasive as President Trump and his minions. My bet has always been and remains on the dragon slayer! The original story of Saint George and the Dragon dates back to the 7th century, the narrative maintaining that in a fictitious town in Libya there lived a king who chose to appease the evil dragon in the town’s lake that was poisoning the countryside. With the agreement of his subjects, the appeasement involved feeding the dragon two sheep every day. But when there...

    The U.S. Constitution must be enforced and stop the political insurgency and guerrilla warfare activities bent on the destruction of duly elected public office holders. If not, the U.S. will have become just another Third World hell hole The violent thugs who disrupted Rep. Tom McClintock’s recent town hall meeting in Roseville, CA were clearly organized and had a plan. There was nothing organic about that town hall riot, or any of the other town hall meetings held by Congressional Republicans around the country, ending in violent protests.
  • Eight NEOCONS Who Are Out To Get Trump-Hit List–Flynn Down–Bannon And Conway Targeted For Removal

    02/20/2017 5:15:21 AM PST · by davikkm · 18 replies
    If you look up neocon at merriam-webster.com, you are sent to the definition of neoconservative: 1: a former liberal espousing political conservatism 2: a conservative who advocates the assertive promotion of democracy and U.S. national interest in international affairs including through military means. Now, that we know what “neocon” means, lets list eight neocons who are out to get President Donald Trump by taking his Team down. The article I am reading today, which is from the DURAN, one of my favorite publications, states that these eight people took Flynn down. However, I did a story yesterday by an Ex-CIA...

    I would wish everyone a “Happy Presidents’ Day” except I don’t think it’s politically correct to celebrate it anymore – seeing as how, so far, they’ve all been old white guys. So let’s reflect instead on this tweet from wretchardthecat (aka Richard Fernandez) for a moment:Normalizing the abnormal and denormalizing the normal: it really takes a special kind of stupid to do that.No wonder millennials are confused.So on this Presidents’ Day let’s just be grateful that we have a President who is unequivocally not confused; he’s going to Make America Great Again regardless of what the confused elitists think.Excerpts from...

    At, during and after Trump's presser the Press advanced the theory that Trump is responsible for destroying the credibility of the media. Even Trump accepted this premise somewhat at his presser. It is difficult to destroy that which is in ruins.

    US Defense Watch ^ | February 19, 2017 | Ray Starmann
    The alt-left mainstream media has been in another delusional frenzy for the last 24 hours after President Trump made this comment at his rally in Melbourne, Florida, yesterday. “You look at what’s happening last night in Sweden,” Trump said. “Sweden. Who would believe this? Sweden. They took in large numbers. They’re having problems like they never thought possible.” The left was quick to move into their typical mode of complete denial. According to liberals in the USA and in Europe, nothing is going on in Sweden. It’s a virtual paradise right now. Nothing to see in Sweden folks, move on....

    Dear readers, President Trump recently released an Executive Order banning the travel to the United States of citizens of several terror-infested nations (1). Federal Judge James Robart of Seattle issued a temporary restraining order in response to the EO, and a 9th Circuit panel subsequently ruled against the government's attempt to have it lifted (2). For those unfamiliar with federal immigration law and the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), the statutory provision giving the President the authority to exclude foreigners from the United States is 8 U.S. Code Section 1182. More specifically: (f)Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by...

    Town & Country ^ | December 12, 2016 | Sam Dangremond
    Will it be St. Albans, Sidwell Friends, or somewhere else entirely? We asked educational experts for their predictions. When President-elect Donald Trump and his family move to D.C.—Melania and Barron are planning to stay in New York City through the end of the school year—Barron Trump will be the first First Son since John F. Kennedy, Jr. to live there. And where he ends up in school is a big question. In 35 years, no First Kid has gone to a school other than Sidwell Friends, the private Quaker school where Sasha Obama is currently enrolled and from which both...

    Teslarati ^ | February 19, 2017 | Carolyn Fortuna
    Head of the Nevada Governor’s Office of Economic Development says Tesla has hired more than 1,000 workers at its Gigafactory plant outside of Reno, and on pace to increase hiring by another 150 to 200 workers each month. Executive Director Steve Hill told the Senate Finance Committee last week during a budget review meeting that the California-based electric carmaker and energy company is ramping up hiring and expects the factory to have 3,200 workers by March 2018. “They’re hiring 150 to 200 more every month,” says Hill. News of Tesla’s workforce expansion comes on the heels of an independent audit...

    The Aspen Times ^ | February 19, 2017 | Glenn K. Beaton
    In the movie “Thelma and Louise,” a bullied Arkansas housewife and a harried waitress ditch their mundane lives for a road trip in their 1966 Thunderbird convertible. It doesn’t end well. In fact, it doesn’t even start well. Thelma, played by Gina Davis, gets drunk and is sexually assaulted. Louise, played by Susan Sarandon, rescues her. But then the assaulter insults them, so Louise shoots and kills him. Their road trip turns into a getaway. They figure they’ll escape to Mexico, but Louise won’t travel through Texas because she’d once been raped there. They loop north to Arizona by way...

Protesters wielding signs in Dallas, Los Angeles and New York poured into the streets on Saturday calling for the establishment of sanctuary cities in order to end ICE raids. Here's a look at other demonstrations scheduled for Sunday and Monday....

    Newsbusters ^ | February 19, 2017 | Nicholas Fondacaro
    During Sunday’s Good Morning America, ABC finally became worried about “skyrocketing” illegal immigration and the strain on resources. But it was not illegal immigration into the United States they were fretting about, but that into Canada. “Illegally crossing the border, fueled by fears after recent immigration raids and uncertainty over President Trump's executive order,” announced co-anchor Dan Harris during the opening tease, “Can Canada handle this new influx?” “Yeah, we're watching scenes of immigrants and their families, with young children, fleeing the U.S., crossing illegally, all hoping to begin the process of emigrating there as refugees,” co-anchor Paula Faris reiterated...

    A survey of Hispanics in the U.S. revealed as many as two million non-citizens are illegally registered to vote, reinforcing claims by President Donald Trump that millions of illegal votes were cast in the 2016 election.The National Hispanic Survey was designed to measure the opinion of Hispanic U.S. residents on a range of political issues. The survey was conducted in June 2013 by survey research firm McLaughlin and Associates.The poll used a random sample of 800 Hispanics, of those selected, 56 percent said they were non-citizens, and 13 percent of those non-citizens said they were registered to vote. Those categorized as...
