Princeton Prof ‘Struck’ by People Questioning Obama’s Russia Sanctions
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/02/2017 9:56:49 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Whatever happened to those ‘Question Authority’ and ‘Dissent is the Highest Form of Patriotism’ bumper stickers that flourished on liberals’ cars during the dark days of George W.’s administration?

Now, in the waning days of a Dem presidency, a touching trust in the judgment of the president is in evidence on the left. On today’s Morning Joe, Prof. Eddie Glaude Jr., chair of Princeton’s African-American studies department, said he is “struck” that anyone would question President Obama’s judgment that sanctions against Russia are warranted. After all, argued Glaude, the president “has sworn to protect this country.”

Prof. Eddie Glaude Jr., doesn't 'get it'. We don't trust white liberal elites - in government or in academia...Or black 'elites' either... Traditional Americans are truly 'color blind' in this sense...

Because they need a distraction - a way to deflect attention from the content of the emails, and a way to explain to their supporters/donors why Hillary lost.

The most blatant attempt to manipulate US elections was by 0bama himself, when he urged illegal aliens to get out and vote. An illegal act on its face.

These lefty idiots have it bred into them with their mothers milk that they can do whatever liberal, unConstitutional, anti-Christ, thing they want and still stay in power as long as they point at Russia and yell, "The Russians are coming".

The left stayed in power from the fifties through Reagan by being tough on Russia (which, you may recall, was Communist at the time) and going along with defense spending and little (or big) wars. They think they can return to power by being in the McCain camp attacking Russia constantly.

IOW, they think they lost State and Federal power because they didn't drum up a paper tiger to threaten the dumb, trembling, masses in flyover country with.

There's going to be a lot of bloody infighting and backstabbing in the democrat fascist party before they ever manage to have a coherent party again, not the least of that bloodletting in Academia, by the way.

Just like a lot of people saw Trump as someone who stood up to the left/media machine and survived then got the courage to stand up as well, I'm sure there will be more States willing to stand up to the Academic machine in their State and take on the fact that we no long have higher education, we only have indoctrination.

Yo, Prof, wasn’t it just two weeks ago that Barky was boasting about how the whole world respects ‘Murica more now than before he was Preezy?

The OPM exposes all the gummint workers to ID theft, putting their info on the internet for their lifetime, and they get a lousy one year credit monitoring subscription. Try that in the private sector.

A source close to Pres-elect Trump's transition team indicated plans to pressure its yet unnamed US ambassadors to suggest foreign governments probe its ­Clinton Foundation financial dealings. “Haiti and Colombia will be key diplomatic posts because of all the money ­involved,” said the source.

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

Recently leaked ­e-mails marked FOB “Friends of Bill”, indicate Clinton insiders may have been given priority from the State Department as it prepared to spend some $10 billion in aid after a 2010 devastating earthquake in Haiti. The State Dept denied any special treatment.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra (he facilitated the sale of US uranium deposits), pledged $100 million to the Clinton Foundation in 2005 and later benefited from the foundation’s philanthropic work in Columbia where Giustra acquired large parcels of land and set up an oil business, ­according to watchdog groups.

Merkel BACKED Hillary: Clinton Foundation received £4M German taxpayer cash pre-election
Express ^ | Nov 29 2016 | Siobhan McFadyen / FR posted by euram

According to reports, the failed Democratic nominee's US-based charity received the cash to help plant trees in Africa at exactly the time she declared Angela Merkel her "favourite" politician. (Excerpt) Read more at express.co.uk ...

Then-Secy Hillary and Angela---BFF.

EXCERPT---- The German Federal Ministry for the Environment has denied that Merkel's govt donation to the Clinton Foundation was linked to Hillary's election.

The Ministry confirmed the transaction took place and insisted the money was to provide "financing under the International Climate Protection Initiative (ICI)".

The ministry also claimed the public funds served to "support forestry and landscape renaturation in East Africa". German taxpayers are also funding Clinton Foundation projects that involve the "restoration of forest ecosystems" in India, Kenya, El Salvador, Mexico, Vietnam, Uganda and Peru – according to reports.

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

ADDENDUM: In 2011, Podesta’s leaked emails show that former President Bill Clinton had raised over $1 billion though the foundation to rebuild 100 villages in India, but only $53 million was spent on the project. (hat tip The Stream)

” chair of Princeton’s African-American studies department, “

where neither Africans nor Americans are actually studied, and are not even allowed to enroll in the class.

Exactly.

One of the few times he hasn’t lied is when he gaffed about his Muslim faith.

How many millions did Saudi Arabia give to the HRC campaign? That is interference. Maybe we should sanction them!

So I suppose after President Trump has taken the oath of office and has sworn to protect this country, this guy will have total faith in him. I am holding my breath.

I'm guessing they are going to make a big comeback with the Prius/Outback/Volvo crowd. ;-)
