Perez Says Democratic Party’s Message Will Be Carried Out Through Lawsuits Against Trump
freebeacon. ^ | February 26, 2017 | Alyssa Canobbio

The newly elected chair of the Democratic National Committee, Tom Perez, said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press" that the Democratic Party's message will be carried out in part through lawsuits against President Trump.

Perez, the former secretary of labor under President Obama, made the comment after host Chuck Todd asked if he is content with the Democratic Party being known as the party of "no."

"Are you comfortable with the Democrats being known as the party of ‘no?'" Todd asked.

Perez side-stepped the question, arguing the Democratic Party is the "party of opportunity and inclusion."

"We are going to communicate our message, whether it is through lawsuits like the state attorneys general did to stop the Muslim ban," Perez said. "Whether it is through actions like at the polls yesterday in Delaware and hopefully in April in congressional district six right here in Georgia."

Perez went on to list what the party message will be, citing wage increases, greater health care access, and more opportunity for the middle class.

Perez was elected DNC chair in Atlanta on Saturday. He named Rep. Keith Ellison (D., Minn.) to serve as his deputy chair, in part to assuage progressive Democrats who wanted Ellison to be elected chairman and are unhappy with the outcome.

This points to the need to reform our legal system. Too often lawsuits are nothing more than harassment and extortion.

>>Their message is obstruction, we need to crush them where they stand.<<

What he’s actually saying is their message is going to be: We love activist judges!

I agree; voter fraud needs to be found and prosecuted.

However, I also think that the 62 million who voted for Trump are going to vote in droves in every election they can for years to come.

We know what is at stake and we know now that we can win from local levels on up against the GOPe, the RINOs and the Communists on the other side of the aisle. :)

To be accomplished by bringing jobs back to the US.

greater health care access

Reduce the deductibles and copays that are currently making actually getting health care possible.

and more opportunity for the middle class.

Again, to be accomplished by bringing jobs back to the US.

If these are really his goals, he should be supporting Trump.

Lawsuits is how they effectively took out Gov. Palin. It worked for them then. It is not a strategy at which to sneeze.


And, Sheriff Joe, as well. See my post #25.

For example - Wisconsin primaried the Director of Public Instruction, something we’ve NEVER done before.

We now have a solid Conservative running against a Socialist. (Though that job is, ‘non-partisan.’ Yeah. Sure. *SMIRK*

I totally believe this is due to Governor Walker’s winning streak and the fact that we flipped the State to RED this year, for President Trump.

People are emboldened and they. like. winning. :)

Since they lost power?

The democraps NEVER carried about us.

All they care about is themselves and their quest for money and power.

The same could be said about most of the so-called republicans.

And the new sheriff who just replaced Arpaio is dancing for everything Soros wants.

BOMBSHELL: Sheriff Arpaio’s Replacement Directly Aiding Criminal Illegals

February 25, 2017
http://thetruthdivision.com/2017/02/shock-sheriff-arpaios-replacement-defying-immigration-orders-sick-fashion/

Sheriff Paul Penzone is destroying everything that Sheriff Joe Arpaio built by aiding and abetting criminal aliens. Judicial Watch reports: An average of 400 “criminal illegal immigrants” are being released every 10 days by the newly elected sheriff in Arizona’s most populous county, federal law enforcement sources tell Judicial Watch, many of them violent offenders. It’s part of Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone’s new policy to protect illegal aliens, even those who have committed serious state crimes, from deportation.

Under a longtime partnership between the county and the feds, the Phoenix field office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was notified when “aliens unlawfully present with additional Arizona charges” were released from the Maricopa County Jail, which is one of the nation’s largest with a population of about 8,000. That ended when Penzone, who refers to illegal immigrants as “guests,” took office this year and, though he formally announced the change last week, it was put into practice much earlier.

During a recent 10-day period, more than 400 criminal illegal immigrants were released from the Maricopa County Jail, according to federal law enforcement officials directly involved in the process in Phoenix. Weekdays are the busiest, with an average of about 40 criminal illegal aliens getting released from Maricopa County Jail facilities, the sources said.

On weekends the number drops to about ten each day. The illegal aliens have state criminal charges ranging from misdemeanors to felonies, driving under the influence and drug offenses. “There’s no telling how many criminals he’s (Sheriff Penzone) putting on the streets,” said a high-ranking federal law enforcement official stationed in Arizona.

“We can’t stand out there and question everyone that walks out of that jail,” said a federal agent directly involved in the matter. “Even if we did, we would have to make arrests on the street, in the middle of protestors, families and picketers and that will only heighten the danger to agents.”

I guess Perez still likes being Obama's lawn jockey.

(HAT TIP PAM GELLER)---Obama’s hand-picked boy at DOJ——Perez operated as an ***-kissing errand boy and de facto legal arm of Islamic supremacists in America.

The documents reveal the astonishing servile demeanor of Perez's Civil Rights DOJ officials and the demanding condescension of Muslim Brotherhood operatives to America.

FOIA documents show shocking collusion between Obama’s DoJ and radical Islamic terrorist groups under the Muslim Brotherhood tent. FOIA letters from Perez touted all of the DoJ’s actions to advance Islamization of America:

<><> a suit against the city of Lilburn, Georgia for resisting the expansion of a mosque,

<><> amicus participation calling for dismissal of a suit brought by Murfreesboro, Tenn patriots against an Islamic.

Thanks, Jane.
Isn’t that list sickening? I love Sheriff Joe and feel so badly for him that, having worked so tirelessly for his country, that the evil forces were able to do this to him. He epitomizes The American Patriot. Maybe DJT will award him a special metal, and recognition, and everything else he can, so that this hero can enjoy his retirement with his wife, in peace.

IT HASNT SUNK IN YET TO DIM- WITTED DEMOCRATS:

<><>Obama handed his famous state-of-the-art presidential election campaign apparat – the data, the staff, the fundraising – to his non-profit Organizing for Action;

<><> as the needy Democratic Party was shrinking, Obama’s party loyalty came up short;

<><> eight years after Obama came into office, the once-proud Democratic Party is decimated at every level of federal, state and local government.”

<><> Obama has left the Democratic party woefully divided (and is working on dividing Republicans);

<><> Democrats should find out the whereabouts of the old computers Obama removed from the White House (US Government property) which may have been relocated to the OFA operations center.

<><>the computers would show what Obama knew, and when he knew it, as well as any email he had with Clintons and any disloyalty to his party..

<><> the missing computers are the only known electronic links to Obama’s clandestine operations and could be used as evidence of impropriety.

Because that would be opposite of their goal. They WANT to add to the average American’s costs. That will make citizens more dependent on gov’t, which is their goal. Power and control over We the People. They truly are domestic enemies. The only question I have is wondering if DJT has the courage to do what most of us know needs to be done when dealing with enemies of liberty. If anyone has it, he does! I guess time will tell.

`rat lawsuit immediately met by motions for change of judge and Answers with counterclaims against the `rats for fees, court costs and other damages for filing frivolous, politically motivated claims lacking any real merit.
