Adam Schiff's New Impeachment Hoax Report Just Debunked By Constitutional Scholar's Testimony At Today's House Judicial Committee Trials Lawyer, George Washington University Professor, and legal expert Jonathan Turley in his opening statement called Nadler's impeachment inquiry unConstitutional based on the actual debates at the Constitutional Convention during the Impeachment Pseudo-Debates today. In his opening statement, Turley mentions how the Framers of the Constitution specifically removed "maladministration" from the impeachment clause of the Constitution, meaning the Democrat's main argument does not constitute an impeachable offense. In his argument, he said President Trump had done nothing impeachable and therefore the entire impeachment treasure hunt...

Nigeria: Military releases 983 suspected Boko Haram jihadis, tells them “go and sin no more” DEC 3, 2019 2:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER 16 COMMENTS What could possibly go wrong? Well, we saw the answer to that question last week on the London Bridge, where a jihadi who had supposedly turned from the error of his ways and been “deradicalized” went on a stabbing spree. “Military releases 983 suspected Boko Haram members,” by Kayode Idowu, Punch, November 27, 2019 (thanks to Udoh): The military authorities on Wednesday released 983 suspected Boko Haram members cleared of complicity with the terror group....

NYC’s Muslim Community Patrol to enforce the “fundamentals of the Sharia” NOV 29, 2019 12:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER Can’t say we weren’t warned. But warning about such things is “Islamophobic.” “Clarion Special Report: NY’s Sharia Patrol,” by Ryan Mauro and Martin Mawyer, Clarion Project, October 10, 2019 (thanks to Creeping Sharia): Not surprisingly, the sight of official-looking cars – made to look like police New York City cars — emblazoned with the words “Muslim Community Patrol” cruising the avenues of Brooklyn and Staten Island—in the United States of America—was quick to generate news coverage, commentary and alarm. Most of...

It was only a matter of time after Democrats grabbed all of the power in Virginia for them to begin to enact a radical left-wing agenda. And it should serve as a warning for the voters of any state to pay attention to so they know what is headed their way if they make this mistake. The first step that Virginia lawmakers are doing, and they have a good chance of enacting with their Democrat governor, is confiscating guns from those who legally own their firearms.~~~SNIP~~~And the governor was not done there. When asked by reporters if he would confiscate...

UK’s Guardian: London Bridge jihadi was reacting to racism, Muslims are the real victims of his massacre DEC 2, 2019 12:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER “Elsewhere, court documents reveal that racism may have also played a role in radicalising Khan. They cite how Khan and others discussed bombing pubs in Stoke as a response to ‘racist incidents.'” Of course court documents “reveal” this. What they do not “reveal,” however, is why this is so. In Sunni Islamic law, defensive jihad is obligatory on every Muslim if a Muslim land is attacked. Offensive jihad can only be called by the caliph....

Nothing to Worry About: London Bridge Jihadi Was Safely 'Deradicalized' BY ROBERT SPENCER 2019-12-02 London Bridge jihad murderer Usman Khan was at Cambridge University Friday, attending a prisoner rehabilitation conference, when he suddenly decided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the “deradicalization” process: Khan stabbed Jack Merritt, 25, to death at what the Daily Mail called a “prisoner rehabilitation conference that paired jailed killers with students and held creative writing workshops.” But there’s nothing to worry about here. Jack Merritt’s father, David Merritt, is still a true believer in Britain’s failed multiculturalist project: he wrote that Jack “would not wish his...

Former president of org “dedicated to showing that Islam is a religion of peace” charged with jihad terror activity DEC 3, 2019 11:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER Jehad Serwan Mostafa “was once president of the now-defunct Muslim Youth Council of San Diego, which said on its website that it was ‘dedicated to showing the world that Islam is a religion of peace and Muslims are a peaceful and productive part of society.’ Mostafa’s father, Halim Mostafa, a Kurdish Syrian, made a low-budget film, ‘Mozlym,’ that was released in 2008 and billed as an effort to show how the true meaning...

Islamic Republic of Pakistan: Minor girl stoned to death for honor BY ROBERT SPENCER Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. The Palestinian Authority gives pardons or suspended sentences for honor murders. Iraqi women have asked for tougher sentences for Islamic honor murderers, who get off lightly now. Syria in 2009 scrapped a law limiting the length of sentences for honor killings, but “the new law says a man can still benefit from extenuating circumstances in crimes of passion or honour ‘provided he serves a prison term of no less than two years in the case of killing.’” And...

UK: London Bridge jihad murderer was “beyond rehabilitation,” with views that were “deep and stubborn” DEC 4, 2019 8:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER Gee, where could Usman Khan have picked up “deep and stubborn” views? British authorities will never, ever figure it out, but here’s a hint: “And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they drove you out; persecution is worse than slaughter. But fight them not by the Holy Mosque until they should fight you there; then, if they fight you, kill them — such is the recompense of unbelievers, but if they...

VIDEO With Kamala Harris dropping out of the presidential race due to her failed candidacy, it is easy to forget how much of the media was, until recently, hyping her as The One to take down Trump. This video presents a compilation of funny clips of the media gushing like children over Harris.

What are the Democrats going to do about all these racist…ummm…Democrats???? – Kamala Harris became the latest of the 6,000 or so Democrat presidential candidates to drop out of the race on Tuesday, and naturally the Democrat/Media propaganda complex ran with the “America is a racist nation” narrative in response. Let’s examine that notion for a moment and take it to its logical conclusion. Kamala Harris ended her campaign for one reason and one reason only, and that is because registered Democrat voters told liberal pollsters that they don’t plan to vote for the California Democrat Senator in the Democrat...

Most people prefer their art on their walls not as a permanent fixture of their bodies. But Eli Ink, a 27-year-old tattoo artist from Brighton, England, sees his body as a walking exhibition of his finest work. He has spent the last ten years transforming himself. Tattooing most of his skin black with several coats of ink, dying his eyes and implanting stretchers in his nose and under his bottom lip. The process is far from finished, but the result is striking

In the summer of 2018, journalist Vivian Yee amused herself with the thought that Orange Country, California, was once an agricultural, “conservative (think Richard Nixon and the John Birch Society) and white (very, very white),” slice of America. But “Chinese and Korean immigrants, and Asian-Americans from other states,” she wrote on the eve of the midterm election, “have made Irvine nearly half Asian.” Asians, Yee noted, are reliably liberal on gun control, climate change, and public spending. Indeed, Michelle Malkin recently took a deeper dive on the same topic in these pages: With the midterms at the time of Yee’s...

It was less a shock than it was an inevitability: Just a few hours after a 17-year-old student armed with a handgun forced a lockdown at Waukesha South High School on Monday, a report of a student with a gun at Waukesha North High School prompted a lockdown there. The following morning, a credible threat closed the Sparta School District while threats deemed to be non-credible were made against both Germantown and Grafton High Schools. Just hours later, a 16-year-old Oshkosh West High School student stabbed a school resource officer and—in an incident nearly identical to that just a day...

It would be easy to conclude, after a quick look at some topline findings about higher education in recent years, that a set of misguided practices and policies has distorted college enrollment, completion, and costs. For example, a well-meaning college-for-all movement directed students into four-year institutions, but many of these young people were unprepared for college-level work or didn’t really want to attend. A well-meaning effort to make college more affordable led to massive subsidies that have become over a trillion dollars in student debt. In hindsight, we can see that this approach devalued non-college postsecondary tracks, enabled higher education...

"Here is my strategy on the cold war: we win, they lose." Ronald Reagan. President Trump has done a great job so far. The fact that he is still in office and has had some successes in spite of being continually sabotaged is remarkable. But President Trump is losing in his attempt to clean up the federal government and drain the swamp. Most Americans do not realize how extensive the attempt to destroy the Trump Presidency is. Those who work against the president face no consequences for their actions. President Trump only has to lose once and he will be...

10 Quick Shots from an Early 20th Century Pocket Pistol - Before concealed carry was the norm, Savage Arms produced the Savage Model 1907 semi-automatic pocket pistol in .32 ACP is from 1907 until 1920. Although smaller in size, it is derived from the .45 semi-automatic pistol Savage submitted to the 1906-1911 US Army trials to choose a new semi-automatic sidearm. After several years of testing the Savage pistol was one of two finalists but ultimately lost to Colt, which became famous as the Colt Model 1911. Savage felt that a scaled down pocket pistol would be a better seller...
