UPMC, Dollar Bank withdraw support of St. Barnabas fundraiser over Jeanine Pirro appearance
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ^ | March 22 | Sean D. Hamill

UPMC Health Plan, Dollar Bank and Trib Total Media this week have all withdrawn their support for an April Founder’s Day fundraiser for St. Barnabas Charities after at least one local man asked them if the honoree and speaker at the event, Fox News commentator Jeanine Pirro, “reflect the values of your institution.” Ms. Pirro was strongly criticized after comments she made on her Fox News show, “Justice With Judge Jeanine” on March 9 when she said of U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who wears a hijab, a traditional covering worn by Muslim women: “Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?”

>>The U.S.A. is now ruled by muslims?

More than most realize, yes.

Ovomit was flying them over by the plane loads non-stop for years.

We are becoming the Soviet Union with the Latin alphabet and without slave labor camps (for now). On the other hand, it’s not quite as cold here!/s

It’s just so unfair......like Roseanne being booted out of a hit show she CREATED AND STARRED in just b/c of some absurd tweet about an Obamaton.

I really don’t know if it’s going to stop...It’s going to take more than people are willing to do, I think...

It only takes one to ruin it for everybody.

They've probably ensured that it will sell out, if it hasn't already. I'm sure there will be a group of nutcase regressives camped outside trying to wreak havoc.

Also....just read where Faux News has banned Sara Carter from all shows, except Hannity and have requested that Hannity stop referring to Sara as “Investigative Reporter”. She and Seb Gorka are supposedly banned.

Done. With. Fox.

I believe the planet is well on its way to the Tribulation.

I don’t say that happily; simply an observation of all that is happening.

The madness is world-wide. Along with hatred of Christians, Christianity and the reborn state of Israel.

Add in the technological advances, while cool, now serve as surveillance devices. Pay-by-phone? Yes, cool. Cash will eventually be a thing of the past. For some, it already is.

All of which fits pre-trib Bible Prophecy.

Gotta take down what’s left of the Free Western World for the New World Order.

Oopsie, I went all tin-foil again.

Judge Jannine tried to tell it like it is.......so I guess UPMC Health Plan, Dollar Bank and Trib Total Media are OK with Omar's virulent anti-Semitism?

Congressional Black Caucus Democrat Cong Jim Clyburn defended Omar’s anti-Semitism insisting:
"I've talked to her---she's feeling real pain b/c of her bgrnd."
Democrat Cong Clyburn said Omar "told him" she was born in Somalia, and had to flee the country to escape Somali violence,
and spent four years in a Kenyan refugee camp before coming to the US.....this according to Clyburn.

===========================================
Then why, as a frightened Somali given refuge in America, did she hurry back to Somalia to get her BIL a job?

This creepy Somali woman in our Congress has a hidden agenda no one could ever imagine.
Omar has has world-wide terrorist connections...........that's why she's always smiling.

BACKSTORY-- Just a few weeks after her election to Minnesota's state legislature,
Ilhan left her American refuge to travel to her homeland she says she "fled in fear".
She was with then-Pres Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, a Somali favorite for re-election.
He reportedly invited her to appear beside him prior to the Somali election taking place.
That's the "frightened lady" pictured chit-chatting, setting up her foreign policy $$$$ Somali agenda.

No Longer "Fearful," elected US state rep Omar Endorsed Somalia’s New President. Four Days Later,
Omar's Brother-in-Law Had a Powerful Job in the Somali Administration. The US foreign aid is about to pour in.

What was the deal she made with the corrupt-ridden Somali govt? Are the violent Somalians she once fled,
privy to US security reports from Omar's current position on the Congressional Foreign Affair Committee?

You better believe it, guys.

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

A foray into foreign politics, should have disqualified her from getting US security clearance.
How did she get US security clearance in Congress? Did she falsify govt documents?

The US may not quite be at the tip of the spear, but Western Civilization is heading down the rabbit hole. A hundred years from now, people will look back at us and ask, “What were they thinking?”

The Rapture is so close you can almost hear the footsteps of the Messiah.

The secular world is so primed for the arrival of the Man of Lawlessness I can hardly believe it.

Yet they prove it every day of the week. My goodness...
