Walmart Selling Antifa ‘Fan Gear’

Walmart is selling “Antifa” clothing that “will [allow you to] express yourself inside the opposition to the ideology, organizations, governments and people from the far right (fascism).”

The mega-retailer is offering at least 13 different sweatshirts “made in Mexico of 100% COTTON for all-day comfort” promoting the group whose activities were “formally classified” by the Obama Administration “as domestic terrorist violence” as early as April 2016, according to Politico, despite the group’s efforts to downplay this determination.

“Antifa,” or Anti-Fascist Action, is an informal grouping of communist, anarchist, and other far-left street gangs. Drawing inspiration from the German Communist Party’s street fighters of the 1930s, the modern movement grew out of the European far-left punk scene in the 1980s. These unapologetically violent bands of leftists were largely unknown in the United States until recent years, when America’s post-Occupy Wall Street far-left began adopting the name.

Antifa is well known for dozens of violent crimes against people they consider “fascists” on both sides of the Atlantic. As Breitbart News’s Ian Mason cataloged, to Antifa, “fascists” include “in no particular order”:

…Trump supporters, other Trump supporters, members of Germany’s populist AfD party, a 20-year-old woman who chose to wear a Spanish-flag bracelet, a Philadelphia free speech rally, former UKIP and Brexit leader Nigel Farage, libertarian VICE News co-founder Gavin McInnes, French policemen, and Israeli-owned bookstores. Interesting, a Salafist Muslim who attacked a “filthy white” Antifa writer because he disrespected Islam does not qualify.

Clinton Sex Accusers: Open Secret Slush Fund

Women who allege former President Bill Clinton sexually assaulted them are calling for Congress to release the names of members of the House of Representatives who have paid off the victims of sexual harassment with a mysterious tax-payer funded “slush fund.”

After the sexual harassment allegations brought down Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, dozens of women and men have blown the whistle on the predatory practices of media figures ranging from actor Kevin Spacey and Russel Simmons to news anchors Matt Lauer and Charlie Rose . . .

Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey and Leslie Milwee, all of whom claim Clinton dramatically changed their lives, jeopardized their careers and tarnished their reputations, are demanding Congress reveal the identity of the lawmakers who have played off victims of sexual indiscretions with taxpayer dollars.

“I have just one thing to say to all of you congressmen and all of you senators: We pay you,” Willey told WND. “You owe us. You owe us answers, you owe us an explanation. How did that fund start? Who started it? Who got it going?”

“Why is everybody covering for these people? Why are they being allowed to get away with this horrible, horrendous treatment of women with no accountability whatsoever to anyone?” (Read more from “Clinton Sex Accusers: Open Secret Slush Fund” HERE)

Hyped Mueller Charges Show… Gen. Flynn Acted in U.S. Interests

On Friday, former national security adviser Michael Flynn pled guilty to making false statements to the FBI about conversations he had with the former Russian ambassador to the U.S., which occurred after Donald Trump was elected president.

Prosecutors say Flynn was not forthcoming about two discussions he had with the Russian ambassador. The first involved sanctions on Russia, while the second was about an anti-Israel resolution that the Obama administration abstained from.

There’s a lot of hysteria from the left-wing legacy media figures and former Obama officials surrounding these latest charges. But, in the end, Flynn conducted himself as any incoming national security adviser would, and he acted within U.S. national interests in doing so. Here’s what the charges actually amount to …

Contacting foreign governments during the transition is not illegal or unusual

Both Flynn and the prosecution has stated that the events in question occurred in December 2016, after Donald Trump’s election and during the transition period.

It’s unclear why Flynn allegedly misled the FBI here, but it makes sense that the incoming president wanted to open up a dialogue with Russia prior to his first day in office. There is nothing criminal about this action, and in fact, it’s common precedent for an incoming administration to want to engage a great power on the issues. Flynn is reportedly going to testify that he was ordered to reached out to the Russians to see if there was the potential to partner against the ISIS terror group.

Beginning your foreign policy agenda on day one in the Oval Office is a bad idea. There’s a reason why the post-election stage is called the “lame duck” period for an outgoing president. Once elected, the incoming president drives the domestic and foreign policy agenda items that will come up during their tenure.

Flynn should be applauded for trying to save Israel from Obama and the U.N. goons

The second series of charges listed by special counsel Robert Mueller’s team is centered around an anti-Israel United Nations resolution that the Obama administration let pass through by abstaining from the vote. The resolution condemned Israel and declared that ancient Jewish land and other contested areas belonged to the Palestinians.

According to the charges, Flynn contacted the Russians to see if they would be willing to vote against the resolution. The New York Times reports that Team Trump got involved after the Israelis called and asked for help on the matter.

Flynn’s actions on this front are not scandalous. In fact, he should be praised for trying to save our greatest ally in the Middle East from Obama and the United Nations’ bullying. Unfortunately, the Russians ultimately decided not to vote against the resolution.

There’s still ZERO evidence of Trump-Russia collusion

As CRTV White House correspondent Jon Miller explains, the latest charges are entirely based on events that occurred during the transition period.

Hysterical screeds from prominent members of the Left continue to accuse the president of colluding with the Russian government to win the election. But now, almost one full year into the Trump presidency, not a single piece of evidence has surfaced to show that any such collusion ever occurred.

Speculation that Flynn “flipped” is mere opinion, not fact

To rationalize the fact that the charges against Gen. Flynn are very much inconsequential to what Mueller is supposed to be investigating, many on the Left have become convinced that prosecutors are on the precipice of taking down the president — because Flynn has “flipped” to Mueller’s side.

This analysis is based on blind speculation, not fact. It’s possible that, quite simply, Mueller does not have much to work with in his crusade against the administration.

In the end, the “bombshell” here is that Michael Flynn misled the FBI regarding actions he took that were not only entirely legal, but also as part of an effort to advance American interests.

Senate Passes Major Tax Reform Package

The U.S. Senate voted just before 2 a.m. ET Saturday to pass a sweeping tax overhaul worth roughly $1.4 trillion, putting the Trump White House a big step closer to its first major legislative victory – and many Americans closer to a tax cut.

The vote was 51-49, with Republican Bob Corker of Tennessee the only member of the GOP to side with the Democrats in opposition.

Not long after the vote, President Donald Trump tweeted his reaction:

“We are one step closer to delivering MASSIVE tax cuts for working families across America,” the president wrote. “Special thanks to @SenateMajLdr Mitch McConnell and Chairman @SenOrrinHatch for shepherding our bill through the Senate. Look forward to signing a final bill before Christmas!”

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., also responded, calling the legislation a “betrayal of the American middle class.”

Cop Adopts Homeless Mother’s Opioid-Addicted Newborn

. . .In the body camera footage, Ryan [Holet] questions Champ [addicted mother] and her companion for almost 11 minutes. He focused on Champ and tried to figure out whether she fully understood the danger drug use was inflicting on her unborn child . . .

In the course of the conversation, Champ emotionally told Ryan that she desperately hoped someone would adopt her baby. Champ says the words triggered a change in the officer’s demeanor . . .

Ryan showed Champ a picture of his wife and four children, including a 10-month old baby and in that moment offered to adopt her baby . . .

Ryan walked up to his wife, who was holding their 10-month old baby, and said he had just met a pregnant woman who was shooting up heroin and that he offered to adopt the baby. (Read more from “Cop Adopts Homeless Mother’s Opioid-Addicted Newborn” HERE)

Township’s Mosque Appeasement Case Hits Huge Snag

A deal that many viewed as a $3.5 million appeasement payment to a mosque project has hit a huge snag, with a lawsuit claiming that the meeting at which township officials approved the settlement of an earlier lawsuit was illegal.

The case earlier raised eyebrows when officials in Bernards Township in New Jersey abruptly held a meeting on short notice to pay off the Islamic Society of Basking Ridge.

The Muslim organization sued after town officials said it couldn’t build a huge mosque in a residential area because the infrastructure wouldn’t support it.

According to the Thomas More Law Center, the settlement “reads more like an instrument of surrender.”

The settlement required the township to hold a public meeting about the mosque project, but it forbade anyone from commenting on “Islam” or “Muslims.” (Read more from “Township’s Mosque Appeasement Case Hits Huge Snag” HERE)

Quit Starving Injured Patients, Activist for Handicapped Pleads

The brother of Terri Schiavo is calling for the American medical and legal communities to stop using the term “persistent vegetative state” to describe the condition of seriously injured patients like his sister, whose high-profile case in Florida drew the intervention of Gov. Jeb Bush and President George W. Bush.

Such patients, said Bobby Schindler, associate scholar at the Charlotte Lozier Institute, or CLI, and president of the Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network, can be deliberately starved to death through the collaborative effort of families, physicians and others.

In his report, “Basic Care, Human Dignity, and Care for the Medically Vulnerable Persons,” published by CLI, he explains institutions have defined basic needs such as water and food as “medical treatment,” which then can be withheld, as people “allow their loved one to die.”

Schindler, whose sister died in 2005 when a judge allowed caregivers to deprive her of food and water, explains in the report that the problem begins with the term “persistent vegetative state.”

“A PVS diagnosis not only results in denial of insurance benefits, but also leads physicians to seek to convince the family decision-makers for medically vulnerable patients – who, it must be underscored, are not dying – to ‘allow their loved one to die’ by denying them food and water by means of the feeding tubes they rely on due to their brain injury,” his report said.

It’s Time for a U.S. DACA: Deferred Action From Criminal Aliens

Only in our dystopian remnant of America can an illegal alien come here after being deported several times, snuff out the life of a young woman, and walk away scot-free. We are strangers in our own land of illegal alien supremacism and nobody in the political class wants to hear our side of the issue.

Late Thursday evening, a San Francisco jury acquitted Jose Garcia Zarate — an illegal alien from Mexico — of all murder charges, including manslaughter, for the death of Kate Steinle on July 1, 2015.

The 32-year-old woman was killed when Zarate decided to pick up a 40-caliber SIG Sauer he claims to have found on a pier bench and randomly fired it into her back. She died in her father’s arms.

This is not a random story. Sadly, there are well over a million criminal aliens in this country who are roaming the streets. Zarate was deported five times previously and racked up seven felony convictions in America, but was allowed to roam our streets and “accidentally” fire a gun because of sanctuary cities like San Francisco.

Many commentators will focus on the absurdity of the jury’s decision; there is certainly a lot to say about the jury pool in places like San Francisco. One has to wonder if we are entering an era reminiscent of the Jim Crow South, where in certain jurisdictions we can’t get justice if the perpetrator is of the right ilk, in this case being an illegal alien.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions already announced that DOJ might bring a federal lawsuit against Zarate. He is right to pursue federal charges because even if one believes the discharge was accidental, it is still a felony for an illegal alien to be in possession of a firearm, not to mention reentering the country illegally four times.

But the bigger issue here is not an individual trial or a jury pool but the broader questions of sanctuary cities, border security, and interior enforcement.

The Steinle killer was the poster child for sanctuary cities, because less than three months before the shooting Zarate was released by San Francisco Police after being arrested on drug charges.

Federal immigration officials had requested that he be detained for 48 hours so they can pick him up and deport him, but the neo-confederates of San Francisco took their nullification policies to such an extreme that even someone with the rap sheet of Zarate was set free.

This is part of a broader pattern. A few months ago, two illegal aliens stole a gun from a San Francisco cop and allegedly murdered someone with it. They had previously been arrested for other crimes but were released in defiance of an ICE detainer request. One of the suspects came here through the asylum loophole the politicians refuse to close.

And now judges, including federal judges in San Francisco, Philadelphia, and Chicago, are declaring sanctuary policies and prohibiting states from cooperating with ICE or creating an entitlement for sanctuary cities to obtain federal funds and even for sanctuary cities to obtain state funds.

It was so bad that the plaintiff in the Massachusetts case that served as the impetus for their sanctuary policies was later re-arrested for slapping and robbing a wheelchair-bound woman leaving a bank. A 2014 analysis from ICE of sanctuary cities found that 8,145 individuals were released during a nine-month period and 1,867 were subsequently re-arrested a total of 4,298 times on nearly 7,500 criminal charges.

Overall, nearly one million have already received final deportation orders, and these are, for the most part, criminal aliens. Yet only a small percentage of this pool of illegals are deported in a given year. When will either party treat this issue like the emergency that it is?

We have a lot of violence in this country, but there are limits to what we can do about our inherent domestic problems. We don’t need to import the violent criminals of other countries. They should be deported immediately, and this should not be a partisan issue. While any murder is senseless, the death of Kate Steinle is even more tragic because Zarate should never have been in the country in the first place.

DACA is the cause, not the solution, to the violence

Appallingly, even some of the “conservatives” in Washington won’t stop talking about a “DACA fix” for “Dreamers.” What about a sanctuary fix in the budget? What about an asylum fix? What about a border surge fix?

Obama’s amnesty is exactly what broke the system and has led to a surge in criminal alien killings in this country. Over the past three years, 22 percent of all those arrested for involvement with MS-13 were Central American “children” who crossed the border.

This is the legacy of the DACA amnesty and yet the politicians have the temerity to talk about amnesty as a “fix.” A fix to what? Sens. James Lankford, R-Okla., Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., should hang their heads in shame for marshaling their respective state’s resources to focus on lawbreaking rather than representing their constituents.

It’s time to go on offense — President Trump and the Freedom Caucus should demand five particular things in addition to the border wall.

1. A denial of federal grant funds to sanctuary cities to be placed in the budget bill this month. Also, the defund effort should include transportation funds because California has granted 800,000 driver’s licenses to illegal aliens.

2. There’s an epidemic of illegal alien drunk-driving fatalities, and while states can do what they want with driver’s licenses (except for when they don’t want to issue them to illegals and courts mandate it), they should also face consequences when it comes to federal funds. Let Democrats risk a shutdown in order to protect criminal aliens and lawless jurisdictions.

3. Passage of the Davis-Oliver interior enforcement act, which punishes sanctuary cities, deputizes states to enforce immigration laws, and bolsters expedited deportations. Why has leadership held this bill up from a floor vote for three years after passing committee twice?

4. Finally end the practice of dumping Central American unaccompanied children (UACs), many of whom are extremely violent, into our communities.

As we’ve noted before, almost none of them fit the statutory description of “severely trafficked” victims who are entitled to refugee resettlement. In fact, most are smuggled in by their families and many, as stated above, have ties to MS-13.

In FY 2017, over 42,000 were resettled, and their numbers are growing. Remember the MS-13 body count in once-peaceful Long Island we reported on last week?

Fox News reports that thousands of UACs have been dumped into their schools and local officials say their schools have now become breeding grounds for gang activity. So much for being victims. The victims here are our own communities, not criminal aliens.

5. Trump should order his IRS to stop giving refundable tax credits to illegal aliens.

And when, oh when, will Congress and Trump wake about regarding the stolen sovereignty from the courts? Congress could take immigration away from the lower courts in a heartbeat.

Trump’s tweets regarding Steinle were on message, but now is the time to see whether he is indeed serious about putting Americans first in practice. It’s time for an American DACA –Deferred Action from Criminal Aliens. (For more from the author of “It’s Time for a U.S. DACA: Deferred Action From Criminal Aliens” please click HERE)

Mich. LGBT Advocate Admits Bias Against ‘Women’ With Penises

For pure political chutzpah alone, Dana Nessel’s recent campaign commercial is about as perfect as it gets.

The Democratic candidate for attorney general in Michigan took a page out of Iowa Republican Sen. Joni Ernst’s “Make ’Em Squeal” book and played the genitalia card. But whereas Ernst’s was a tongue-in-cheek attack on flaccid politicians in general, Nessel flat-out went after men as a whole.

Following week after surreal week of American politics, media, and entertainment being dominated by sex scandals, she told voters in her ad that they should vote for her for one simple reason: She doesn’t have manly parts.

“Who can you trust most not to show you their penis in a professional setting?” Nessel asks. “Is it the candidate who doesn’t have a penis? I’d say so.”

Like I said, that’s some quality theater right there. She clearly woke up one morning and said to herself, “I’m not going to bring a knife to a gun fight.”

But here’s the thing. That’s actually what she did. When you set aside the “shock” factor and break it down philosophically, how can this woman expect us to take her seriously, based on the arguments her very progressive worldview has foisted on the culture in recent years?

Nessel’s legal career includes work on behalf of so-called LGBT rights, including challenges to Michigan’s bans against same-sex adoption and marriage.

So traditional gender roles be damned then, right? Because they said so, bigot. Fine. Why then should I believe the exclusive addition of women to the political mix will right any wrongs?

I mean, if Bruce Jenner can be Woman of the Year, it seems silly, counter-productive, or flat-out offensive to insist that women are the sole answer to anything based on nothing more than anatomy. After all, aren’t we taught that not all women have vaginas, and not all men have penises, according to the likes of Nessel? So which is it? Is gender a predetermined binary exercise, or a fluid social construct? Progressives like Nessel can’t have it both ways, although they often try.

Shouldn’t Nessel be expected and willing to follow her worldview all the way through to its logical conclusions if she expects Michigander votes? Oh, I’m a bigot for asking that question, too? I see how this works.

Two legs good, four legs bigot. But what the heck, I’ll just have to take that risk, because I’m not done yet.

Along with Nessel’s philosophical musings running afoul of the transgendered “principle,” they are also guilty of breaking the egalitarian ethos that has driven feminism for decades.

Women were said to be capable of doing anything a man could do — and, in many but not all cases, that was correct. And so it was that a whole new world of career options and lifestyle opportunities were made available to women.

But what Nessel suggests is to replace misogyny, whether real or imagined, with its female doppelganger. Or to paraphrase President Donald Trump, “Women alone can solve” what ails us.

Um, no. It seems that hardly a week has gone by for decades now without a new story about a female schoolteacher charged with having sexual relations with her underage students. So why doesn’t this string of scandal cause Nessel to say that women should no longer be hired as teachers?

Progressivism is nothing without its hypocrisies.

Women are broken and in need of redemption every bit as much as men are. Which the hypocrisy and self-refuting logic of Nessel’s pagan worldview proves. (For more from the author of “Mich. LGBT Advocate Admits Bias Against ‘Women’ With Penises” please click HERE)

No ‘Russia Collusion’ in Mueller’s Case Against Flynn

By Art Moore. It’s significant that Michael Flynn, President Trump’s former national security adviser, pleaded guilty Friday to the “process crime” of lying to FBI agents rather than to a conspiracy of collusion, contends a former assistant U.S. attorney.

Flynn’s plea in federal court centered on his conversations with Russia’s ambassador to the U.S. in December 2016, during the presidential transition period. ABC News reported Flynn plans to testify that Trump himself directed him to reach out to Russians.

But Andrew McCarthy, a former assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, argues Special Counsel Robert Mueller would not permit Flynn to settle the case with a single count of lying to FBI agents if his conversations with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak had provided evidence that the Trump administration would ease or eliminate sanctions on Russia as a payback for Russia’s cyber-espionage against the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic Party.

He pointed out that the only major case Mueller previously has brought was against former Trump-campaign chairman Paul Manafort and an associate, which had nothing to do with the 2016 election.

“It is becoming increasingly palpable that, whatever ‘collusion’ means, there was no actionable, conspiratorial complicity by the Trump campaign in the Kremlin’s machinations,” McCarthy wrote in a column for National Review.

Dem Senator: Mueller Must Be Protected From ‘Another Saturday Night Massacre’

By Brandon Carter. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) warned Friday that Congress must protect special counsel Robert Mueller from being fired by President Trump, or risk “another Saturday Night Massacre.”

“We proposed legislation that would stop [Trump] from firing the special counsel, and it would shield the special counsel from any sort of political interference, which now seems increasingly threatening,” Blumenthal said on MSNBC’s “All In with Chris Hayes.”

“It is a shattering moment for the Trump presidency,” he continued. “Comparing it to Watergate – there’s a real danger of another Saturday Night Massacre.”

The “Saturday Night Massacre” occurred in 1973 when then-President Richard Nixon fired the special prosecutor in charge of the Watergate investigation, which also triggered the resignation of the attorney general and deputy attorney general.

Blumenthal said the Senate should “send a signal” and pass a bill to protect Mueller to ensure Trump is “discouraged or deterred from endangering our democracy.” (Read more from “Dem Senator: Mueller Must Be Protected From ‘Another Saturday Night Massacre'” HERE)
