Everything Government Says About GLOBAL WARMING IS A LIE



GREENPEACE CO-FOUNDER: GLOBAL WARMING IS A LIE

Here is an excerpt.  I have included the link if you wish to read the entire article.

Prior to the Little Ice Age, during the Medieval Warm Period, Vikings colonized Greenland and Newfoundland, when it was warmer there than today. And during Roman times, it was warmer, long before fossil fuels revolutionized civilization.

We are told carbon dioxide is a “toxic” “pollutant” that must be curtailed, when in fact it is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, gas and the most important food for life on earth. Without carbon dioxide above 150 parts per million, all plants would die.

Human Emissions Saved Planet
Over the past 150 million years, carbon dioxide had been drawn down steadily (by plants) from about 3,000 parts per million to about 280 parts per million before the Industrial Revolution. If this trend continued, the carbon dioxide level would have become too low to support life on Earth. Human fossil fuel use and clearing land for crops have boosted carbon dioxide from its lowest level in the history of the Earth back to 400 parts per million today.

At 400 parts per million, all our food crops, forests, and natural ecosystems are still on a starvation diet for carbon dioxide. The optimum level of carbon dioxide for plant growth, given enough water and nutrients, is about 1,500 parts per million, nearly four times higher than today. Greenhouse growers inject carbon-dioxide to increase yields. Farms and forests will produce more if carbon-dioxide keeps rising.

We have no proof increased carbon dioxide is responsible for the earth’s slight warming over the past 300 years. There has been no significant warming for 18 years while we have emitted 25 per cent of all the carbon dioxide ever emitted. Carbon dioxide is vital for life on Earth and plants would like more of it. Which should we emphasize to our children?

Celebrate Carbon Dioxide
The IPCC’s followers have given us a vision of a world dying because of carbon-dioxide emissions. I say the Earth would be a lot deader with no carbon dioxide, and more of it will be a very positive factor in feeding the world. Let’s celebrate carbon dioxide.

Senator McCain, Please Just Retire...NOW



It is Time for John McCain to Retire

Before you criticize President Trump too harshly for his remarks about Senator McCain, you should watch this video.




Let me be clear, I am not making any judgments about Senator McCain based on what he may or may not have done in the past.  I judge him ONLY on his actions of recent years, and I believe the best thing he could do for the country at this time is to just retire.

THERE REALLY WERE ATTEMPTS TO HACK THE ELECTION



YES THERE WERE ATTEMPTS TO HACK THE ELECTION, BUT IT WAS NOT THE RUSSIANS, IT WAS THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION.
New reports indicate that the Indiana state electoral system endured thousands of hacking attempts this past election season, and none of them involved President Trump or the elusive Russian hackers.
In fact, the would-be hackers were a little closer to home. Specifically, the Department of Homeland Security under President Obama tried to hack the system. And this all happened while Mike Pence was still governor.
Speculation has been that states involved in fighting back against a federal takeover of the elections were those targeted by the administration.
Why is this not an outrage on the nightly news.
SOURCE:  http://thepoliticalinsider.com/obama-hacked-the-election-indiana-department-homeland-security/


Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials tried to hack Indiana’s state electoral system with at least 14,800 “scans” or hits between Nov. 1, 2016, to Dec. 16, 2016, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has learned.
The attacks are the second confirmed IT scanning assault by DHS officials against states that resisted then-President Barack Obama’s attempt to increase federal involvement in state and local election systems by designating them as “critical infrastructure” for national security.
Members of the National Association of Secretaries of State voted Saturday at their winter meeting to oppose the designation. They are asking President Donald Trump to overturn it.
Former Indiana Gov. Mike Pence was also Trump’s vice presidential-elect during much of the period covered by the DHS scans of the Indiana system.
In the waning days of his presidency, Obama pushed a “Russian hackers” conspiracy theory for attempting to influence the electoral process, saying “all Americans should be alarmed.”
They should be just as alarmed, if not more so, at this breach by the administration.

Also there are these reports from Indiana, Idaho, and Georgia.

   


This is perhaps the reason the establishment (both parties) are trying so hard to discredit Trump.  Perhaps they are afraid of what he is going to find when he investigates election fraud, which he has publicly announced he intends to do.

Trump Restores Power to Federal Agents that Obama toof away



Trump and Kelly Sign Executive Orders to Restore the Federal Agents Power

When Barack Obama was in the office, his policies prevented federal agents from doing their job.  This means that agents did not had the authorization to arrest and deport illegal immigrants.  Now with Donald Trump in charge the rules have changed, and the federal agents can do their jobs once again.

IT IS TIME FOR McCAIN TO RETIRE.



John McCain is still so bitter about losing his bid for the Presidency that he has become a traitor to all who support President Trump.  
He is now renewing his calls for a bipartisan select committee to look into Trump’s ties to Russia, which could ultimately put pressure on the Justice Department to appoint a special prosecutor.   While he is meeting with resistance from party leaders so far, McCain plans to use his role as chair of the Armed Services Committee to push for answers.

John McCain went on NBC this morning to defend the liberal media and continue his Trump bashing, but this time he took it even farther. McCain said Trump’s anti media rhetoric is “how dictators get started.”

Rand Paul was on right after McCain and was asked about these comments. He defended Trump and pointed out how ludicrous McCain’s statement is. Then he proceeded to DESTROY McCain’s record.

Was General Flynn Railroaded by the Democrats?



Why Was the FBI Investigating General Flynn?
There appears to have been no basis for a criminal or intelligence probe.

The following is from a recent column by “NATIONAL REVIEW”.

Why would Flynn be the subject of an investigation by the FBI and the Justice Department? We are told that the FBI was monitoring the phone calls of Russian ambassador Kislyak under FISA. Makes sense — he’s an overt foreign agent from a hostile government. Flynn called Kislyak on December 29, 2016. It was not a nefarious communication: Flynn was a top adviser of then-president-elect Trump, a part of the Trump transition team, and just three weeks from formally becoming the new president’s national-security adviser. His communications with Kislyak were just some of the many conversations Flynn was having with foreign officials.

The call to Kislyak, of course, was intercepted. No doubt the calls of other American officials who have perfectly valid reasons to call Russian diplomats have been intercepted. It is the FBI’s scrupulous practice to keep the identities of such interceptees confidential. So why single Flynn out for identification, and for investigation? FBI agents did not need to “grill” Flynn in order to learn about the call — they had a recording of the call. They also knew there was nothing untoward about the call.

We know that from the Times report — a report that suggests an unseemly conjoining of investigative power to partisan politics. The report informs us that as the FBI set its sights on Flynn, its agents were consulting with “Obama advisers.” Interesting, no? Ever since Hillary Clinton’s loss to Donald Trump on November 8, Obama’s Democratic party had been pushing a narrative that “Putin hacked the election.” The narrative continues to have two major flaws.

First, while the Russian dictator may have preferred Trump to Clinton, there is no evidence that his Russian regime did anything to compromise the voting process. The media-Democrat complex has desperately sought to obscure this problem by emphasizing Putin’s likely role in publicizing embarrassing Democratic e-mail communications. Notwithstanding Democratic talking points, that is a far cry from “hacking” the voting process.

The second flaw is that, although Trump has made disturbingly flattering remarks about Putin, there is no evidence his campaign has given or promised Russia any actual accommodation in exchange for Putin’s favor. Democrats hope to erase this problem by finding something, anything, that could be spun as a quid pro quo. Obviously, they hoped the Flynn–Kislyak conversation would answer their prayers. No such luck. As the Times puts it: Obama officials asked the FBI if a quid pro quo had been discussed on the call, and the answer came back no, according to one of the officials, who like others asked not to be named discussing delicate communications.

The topic of sanctions came up, they were told, but there was no deal. Asked not to be named discussing delicate communications. That’s a good one. Let me translate: The officials don’t want you to know who they are because they are corrupt — (a) FISA intercepts are classified, so disclosing them to the press is a crime; (b) by revealing the Flynn–Kislyak conversation to the press, the “officials” inform the Russians that whatever countermeasures they are taking against U.S. surveillance have failed, assuring that the Russians will alter their tactics, making the job of our honorable intelligence agents more difficult; and (c) the FBI’s investigative powers are not supposed to be put in in the service of a political party’s effort to advance a partisan storyline, like “Putin hacked the election.” So since there was no impropriety in Flynn’s call to the Russian ambassador, why did the Bureau continue investigating Flynn? Why did FBI agents interrogate him?

According to press reports of other rogue intelligence leaks, the FBI was sicced on Flynn after Trump officials gave inaccurate public statements about his conversation with Kislyak, to wit: They said that it had not touched on the punitive actions President Obama took against Russia on the same day the conversation took place, when in fact there had been some discussion of that topic — which the FBI and Justice Department knew from the recording. Specifically, Flynn denied any discussion of these sanctions, unnamed Trump officials denied it to the Washington Post, Vice President Pence denied it in a CBS interview shortly before the inauguration, and finally White House spokesman Sean Spicer denied it again on January 23.

According to the Times, it was the Spicer denial that triggered the FBI’s interrogation. It was as if the Bureau and Justice Department intentionally waited to pounce until Trump was in power — which meant that any misstatement could now be framed as a false representation by the sitting president. But just ask anyone who knows that you can’t keep your health-care plan and your doctor if you like them, that the Benghazi massacre was not caused by a video, that the IRS really did harass Americans over their political beliefs, and that Iran will be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. Anyone who knows those things — that would be all of us — also must know that misleading statements by presidential administrations, even egregious ones, are not grounds for FBI investigations.

They are left to the political process to sort out, and we don’t want the FBI turned into a political weapon. So how come the FBI got involved here? Is the FBI saying that Mike Flynn is an agent of a foreign power? A covert Russian operative? That would be absurd. As I’ve detailed, Flynn is on record — unambiguously, in the core theme in his bestselling book — urging Americans to view Russia as an implacable enemy of the United States that must be checked.

Now, are you unhappy — as I am unhappy — with the Trump administration’s blandishments toward the murderous, anti-American Putin regime? Sure . . . but that does not make Flynn and other Trump officials Russian agents — any more than Obama is an Iranian agent. Again, political disagreement is not a rationalization for drawing a ridiculous legal conclusion (“maybe he’s a ‘foreign agent’”) as a pretext for an investigation by the FBI. Fear of blackmail? That is a theory purportedly advanced by former acting attorney general Sally Yates, an Obama political hack who was eventually fired for insubordination by Trump (who had foolishly retained her).

The blackmail theory is almost too stupid to regurgitate. If you can follow this, the idea is that the Russians knew that Flynn withheld information about his Kislyak call from the Trump administration and was therefore vulnerable to extortion — i.e., the Russians could expose his concealment if he didn’t do their bidding. It should go without saying that blackmail works only if the compromising information is not in the possession of the aggrieved party.

Here, the United States — i.e., the Trump administration itself — had a recording of the Flynn–Kislyak call, a fact that both Russia and Flynn (who is deeply versed in intelligence craft) had to know was highly likely. Finally, there’s Flynn’s supposed potential criminal violation of the 1799 Logan Act.

Recall what we said at the start: The FBI’s criminal investigation and domestic security functions overlap. If there is not a valid foreign-intelligence basis to investigate someone, a potential law violation could do the trick. But . . . the Logan Act? Are you kidding? The statute is a discredited relic of the President John Adams administration’s over-criminalization of political speech on the grounds of its purported seditiousness. It is a highly dubious prohibition against foreign-policy freelancing by American citizens acting without executive-branch permission. As Jeremy Duda comprehensively explains in the Washington Post, in its 218-year history, there has been just a single Logan Act prosecution, ever — an unsuccessful, aborted charge brought in 1803 by an Adams-appointed U.S. attorney. It is not enough to say it is ludicrous to contemplate a Logan Act prosecution against a transition official who was the incoming national-security adviser over a phone call with a foreign ambassador.

Beyond that, we must refer to the high-profile July 2016 press conference held by FBI director James Comey. In contrast to General Flynn, as to whom there is no evidence of criminal wrongdoing, there was a Mount Olympus of damning proof that Hillary Clinton committed felony violations of a law against mishandling classified information. Yet Director Comey concluded that “no reasonable prosecutor” would consider indicting Mrs. Clinton. Why? Because behavior of the type in which she engaged is never prosecuted. Now it happens that Comey was wrong about Clinton — to make his assertion, he had to paint a narrowly skewed picture of her misconduct and ignore several prosecutions of military officials for far less serious violations.

Nevertheless, he does run the Bureau, and so we must assume that his explicit guidance governs its investigative standards: “Responsible decisions . . . consider the context of a person’s actions, and how similar situations have been handled in the past.” If that is the standard, there was no conceivable chance that Flynn could ever be prosecuted for a Logan Act violation. Using the Logan Act as a pretext for interrogation would have been improper. And Flynn is not a foreign agent. And there was no need to “grill” him over the contents of a conversation of which the FBI and Justice Department already had a recording. And the FBI has no business probing the veracity of public statements made by presidential administrations for political purposes — something it certainly resisted doing during the Obama administration.

There appears to have been no foreign-intelligence or criminal-investigative purpose served by the FBI’s interrogation of General Flynn. It is easy to see why Democrats would want to portray Flynn’s contact with the Russian ambassador as worthy of an FBI investigation. But why did the FBI and the Justice Department investigate Flynn — and why did “officials” make sure the press found out about it?

Maxine Waters Busted Talking With Russians Hackers. “Impeachable Offense”



Maxine Waters has been pranked by Russian hackers.
I am betting you will NEVER hear about this on the mainstream leftist news media.  This is serious, even though it was just a prank, and she should be sanctioned for divulging information.

It’s very embarrassing, (yet very funny) however, a congressional member talking with foreign nationals about U.S. national security issues is an impeachable offense, making this video as damning as it is funny. 
The fact that everyone knows she’s a complete idiot is no excuse.

The Russian pranksters posted this video on YouTube:

THE SWAMP DRAINING HAS BEGUN.



While Rex Tillerson is on his first overseas trip as Secretary of State, his aides laid off staff at the State Department on Thursday. 
Much of seventh-floor staff, who work for the Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources and the Counselor offices, were told today that their services were no longer needed. 

These staffers in particular are often the conduit between the secretary’s office to the country bureaus, where the regional expertise is centered. Inside the State Department, some officials fear that this is a politically-minded purge that cuts out much-needed expertise from the policy-making, rather than simply reorganizing the bureaucracy.

There are clear signals being sent that many key foreign policy portfolios will be controlled directly by the White House, rather than through the professional diplomats.

THIS IS A GREAT IDEA.



Break up the 9th Circuit Court.
Republican Senators Jeff Flake and John McCain of Arizona introduced legislation last month to carve six states out of the San Francisco-based court circuit and create a brand new 12th Circuit.

They argue that the 9th is too big, too liberal and too slow resolving cases. If they succeed, only California, Oregon, Hawaii and two island districts would remain in the 9th's judicial fiefdom.

We have been talking about Immigration Reform FOREVER.



Does Anyone Remember The Immigration Act of 1990, or the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform?
The U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform was mandated by the Immigration Act of 1990 in order to examine and evaluate U.S. immigration policy, and to provide recommendations for its improvement. The Commission’s initial recommendations were released in 1995, and were endorsed by President Clinton. The final report was presented to Congress in 1997

President Clinton said the proposals “reflect a balanced immigration policy that makes the most of our diversity while protecting the American work force so that we can better compete in the emerging global economy.”

– “Clinton Embraces a Proposal to Cut Immigration by a Third,”
The New York Times,
June 8, 1995

The Commission’s Guiding Principles

1) Clear goals and priorities must define U.S. immigration policy;
2) Effective policy means enforcement of immigration limits;
3) Regular review is needed to ensure flexibility to adjust to changing circumstances in the United States;
4) Immigration policy should be comprehensible and its implementation efficient;
5) Sponsors are responsible for ensuring that immigrants do not become burdens on the American taxpayer;
6) Immigration policy must protect U.S. workers against unfair competition from foreign workers, with an appropriately higher level of protection for the most vulnerable in our society;
7) Both temporary and permanent admissions categories must be seen as integral parts of a cohesive immigration policy;
8) A sound immigration policy supports Americanization, meaning that immigrants share with Americans such values as the belief in liberty, democracy, and equal opportunity;
9) Fundamental immigration reform requires a period of transition to get from the present system to the new one.

The Commission’s Recommendations
Following the above principles, the Commission recommended the creation of a “credible, coherent immigrant and immigration policy” and a “credible, efficient naturalization process” which included the following:
  • A scale back of family chain-migration by implementing a prioritization of nuclear family relationships to determine who will be admitted through family-based immigration. Spouses and minor children of US citizens would continue to be admitted as first priority.
  • Elimination of other family-based admission categories, including:
    • Adult children of U.S. citizens;
    • Adult children of legal permanent residents, and;
    • Siblings of U.S. citizens.
  • A focus on the admission of highly-skilled individuals whose skills would benefit our society. Recommended the elimination of the admission of unskilled workers and elimination of the diversity visa lottery.
  • Immigration admissions level of 550,000 per year, to be divided as follows:
    • Nuclear family immigration 400,000;
    • Skill-based immigration 100,000;
    • Refugee resettlement 50,000.
  • Stressed that deportation is crucial. “Credibility in immigration policy can be summed up in one sentence: those who should get in, get in; those who should be kept out, are kept out; and those who should not be here will be required to leave.”

This is completely mind blowing. We as a nation need to stop this.



What would you do if Hundreds of Muslim “refugees” flooded your town? 

WATCH THIS VIDEO.

Refugee resettlement schemes have brought havoc on entire American neighborhoods and towns. This is completely mind blowing. We as a nation need to stop this by supporting President Donald Trump’s policies.




OBEY THE LAW...



PLEASE read the current LAW which was passed by Congress and signed into law by the President YEARS ago. 
To whom does that law give the authority to decide who can enter the country, The President, or the courts?



The ONLY LEGAL way to stop this executive order is to challenge this laws constitutionality in the Supreme Court.

It is not a ban and it is not racial profiling.



The Trump administration has faced an faced an uphill battle from the get-go on the extreme vetting executive order, beginning in Judge James Robert’s court.
More than a dozen lawsuits and counting have been filed against President Donald Trump’s executive order that temporarily blocks visas from Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, and Yemen.  It has become pretty obvious who is behind all the obstruction by the Left.   The lawsuits largely stem from organizations bankrolled by billionaire leftist George Soros and Democratic state attorneys general.

The claim of the lawsuits is that the Executive order is unconstitutional, which is of course ridiculous.  It clearly states in U.S. Code 1182, which concerns inadmissible aliens under subtitle (f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President.
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non immigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.
That in itself justifies the Presidents actions, but it that isn’t enough, consider all the previous Presidents who have taken similar actions.




Democrats are even raising money off the lawsuits. In a Facebook post, the Democratic Attorneys General Association said, "Stand with Attorney General Bob Ferguson and all Democratic State Attorneys General fighting for what's right!" It added, "Chip in to support Democratic AGs fighting for progressive rights and freedoms."

Outside of the politicians, Soros' Open Society Foundations, which advocates for open borders, is financing several advocacy groups that initiated litigation against the order.
Leading the way in these lawsuits in several states is the ACLU, which has gotten at least $35.5 million from the Open Society Foundations, according to the Capital Research Center, a Washington think tank that investigates nonprofits.

Soros also gave $4.6 million to the National Immigration Law Center, which has been involved in litigation, according to the CRC; and $621,000 to the Urban Justice Center, which has an appendage known as the International Refugee Assistance Project that has jumped into the lawsuits, according to the CRC.

Groups funded by George Soros are litigating to keep U.S. ports-of-entry wide open to terrorists and other people who hate America," Matthew Vadum, senior vice president of the CRC, told LifeZette. "Soros has said he wants to bring America down. Flooding the country with Muslim aliens who won't assimilate is one way to do that."

The Trump administration appealed the decision to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. (Sometimes referred to as the 9th Circus Court)  The appeals court denied the Justice Department's request for an immediate reinstatement of the executive order. It asked challengers of the ban to respond to the appeal, and for the Justice Department to file a counter-response by Monday afternoon.

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, based in
San Francisco, is the nations most liberal, with 18 judges named by Democratic presidents and only seven by Republicans.
And if the issue eventually gets to the Supreme Court, five of the eight justices would need to agree to block Robert’s order. The court is now divided 4-4 between liberal and conservative justices while it awaits confirmation hearings on federal appeals court Judge Neil Gorsuch, Trump's nominee to succeed the late Antonin Scalia.

Republicans had better hurry and get Judge Gorsuch confirmed because with a 4-4 tie, the 9th Circus Court decision remains the law of the land…

I hope and pray that we do not have another terrorist attacked here in the United States.  But God forbid, if we do, all of these Left wing protesters and the Liberal judges that are preventing us from doing proper vetting will be responsible.

The flood gates are open my friends, and the liberal judges have tied our hands.  This matter may go to the Supreme Court, and it is crucial that they overturn the lower courts rulings, unfortunately, it may be too late.

President Trump is going to leave his mark on the U.S. Supreme Court. In addition to Justice Scalia's replacement, it is likely that another seat will be vacated during his term.  If he is re-elected for a second term, he could very well appoint one or two more.

Donald Trump's nominees could the court back toward limited constitutional government for an entire generation. An opportunity exists to undo the Progressive judicial activism that has undermined our Constitution the past century. This court's docket will certainly include controversial issues--such as Obamacare and immigration--and Donald Trump's nominees will play an important role in the direction of our country.

Whatever Happened to the Loyal Opposition Party.



For many years we had the governing party, and the loyal opposition party. 
The purpose of the loyal opposition party is supposed to be, by the use of checks and balances, restrain the president and the excess of one-party rule.  It has become quite obvious there is absolutely nothing loyal about the current opposition party.

We now have to contend with a third party, a party which you couldn’t vote for even if you wanted to because they do not hold elections.  The party to which I am referring is the main stream ultra liberal news media.  They, at least during this current administration, are the “Enemy Party”.

You think that is an exaggeration?   Look at how they use words like “Muslim ban” to describe an executive order that is no such thing.  Look fat how they praise the anti-Trump protesters, and Republican critics.

Look at the Twitter feeds of editors and reporters from those papers and the major networks. You’ll see their embrace of everything anti-Trump, further evidence they are part of a movement to obstruct the president, not cover him.  That report of the Bust of Martin Luther Jr. being removed from the oval office was a classic example.

Look at their rediscovered love for Republican Sen. John McCain, a man whom they ignored during Obama’s eight year.   McCain is again the newsworthy maverick because he is bucking the Republicans.

Look at how they refer to Neil Gorsuch as the nominee for the “Stolen Seat” on the Supreme Court rather than the nominee for the vacant seat.

Look at this excerpt from the New York Times.

President Trump had a great opportunity to repair some of that damage by nominating a moderate candidate for the vacancy, which was created when Justice Antonin Scalia died last February. Instead, he chose Neil Gorsuch, a very conservative judge from the federal Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit whose jurisprudence and writing style are often compared to those of Justice Scalia.

WELL DUH; he is replacing Scalia, not Gingsburg.  Even if he did nominate someone a bit less conservative, the leftist news media would still be upset.
