Supreme Court Green-Lights Trump Removal of Illegal Aliens From Census Count

/0 Comments/in , /by

Throwing out a challenge from New York state, the Supreme Court called it premature Friday to rule on an executive order that directs census officials to exclude undocumented immigrants as part of the count to apportion seats in Congress.

“At present, this case is riddled with contingencies and speculation that impede judicial review,” the unsigned 7-page opinion states. “The president, to be sure, has made clear his desire to exclude aliens without lawful status from the apportionment base. But the president qualified his directive by providing that the secretary should gather information ‘to the extent practicable’ and that aliens should be excluded ‘to the extent feasible.’ Any prediction how the Executive Branch might eventually implement this general statement of policy is ‘no more than conjecture’ at this time.’

The three Democratic judges on the court dissented, saying there is enough risk of injury to rule on the order from President Donald Trump that, to their mind, is clearly illegal.

“The government has announced a policy to exclude aliens without lawful status from the apportionment base for the decennial census,” wrote Justice Stephen Breyer. “The government does not deny that, if carried out, the policy will harm the plaintiffs. Nor does it deny that it will implement that policy imminently (to the extent it is able to do so). Under a straightforward application of our precedents, the plaintiffs have standing to sue. The question is ripe for resolution. And, in my view, the plaintiffs should also prevail on the merits.” (Read more from “Supreme Court Green-Lights Trump Removal of Illegal Aliens From Census Count” HERE)

Recent Leaks Expose Communist China’s Extensive Infiltration Of The West; John Ratcliffe Delays Election Report Amid Clash Over China’s Role

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Federalist. U.S. State Department’s Assistant Secretary David Stilwell recently warned the public: “Influence and interference operations are fundamental to how the Chinese Communist Party engages with the world.” Through two leaked documents, the rest of the world recently discovered more about how aggressive and extensive the CCP’s influence and interference operations are: a database of CCP members and a secret agreement between Switzerland and Chinese police. . .

One of the largest newspapers in Australia, The Australian, reported last weekend it obtained a leaked database of nearly two million CCP members, including their national ID number, birth date, and party position. Additionally, the database contains information on almost 80,000 party branches, showing these CCP members are currently working inside international corporations, universities, and even government agencies around the world.

Based on this database, The Australian also disclosed the names of several companies that have employed CCP members, including Boeing, Volkswagen, Qualcomm, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Deutsche Bank, and J.P. Morgan. Further, as seen via the database, numerous CCP members have infiltrated Australian, American, and United Kingdom consulates in Shanghai, China.

The database was reportedly extracted from a Shanghai-based server by a Chinese dissident in 2016. The Australian stated it hasn’t found any evidence that any member on the list is spying for the CCP. Still, there are good reasons to be concerned. As one national security expert suggested, “Allowing members of the CCP to work for such companies risks their stealing technology, providing intelligence to China on forthcoming weapons systems and capabilities, or on force structures built around those capabilities.” (Read more from “Recent Leaks Expose Communist China’s Extensive Infiltration of the West” HERE)

John Ratcliffe Delays Election Report Amid Clash Over China’s Role

By WND. After telling a CBS News reporter that Beijing interfered in the 2020 U.S. election, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe has delayed issuing a required intelligence community assessment report because of clashes among senior officials over the communist regime’s role.

“Ratcliffe has been really clear about his view that China is our top national security threat,” a senior intelligence official told the Washington Examiner. “But ultimately, he’s trying to ensure politics don’t play a role in what makes it into this report.”

The official said that if there are “conflicting views among senior analysts about Chinese election influence, he wants both views to get a fair shake in the report.”

The report on foreign election interference, due 45 days after the election — which is Friday — is mandated by a 2018 executive order by President Trump. Anticipation of the report increased with the recent revelations of Chinese infiltration in Congress and the report that a China-linked bank invested in Dominion Voting Systems, whose machines used by 28 states are the target of vote-fraud accusations in numerous lawsuits.

However, an intelligence source told the Examiner the report will not focus on claims that voting machines flipped millions of votes or of mail-in ballot fraud.

House Republicans Call for Election-Fraud Hearings

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican Rep. Mo Brooks, who already has pledged to contest the certification of the Electoral College votes on Jan. 6, has been joined by 18 Congress members in a request for hearings on election fraud before the joint session.

The letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and various House and Senate committee chairs asks them to “do their jobs,” Brooks’ office said in a news release.

The letter, the news release said, calls on the congressional leaders to “conduct voter fraud and election theft hearings and investigations so that Congressmen and Senators will be better informed when Congress faces contests and questions about the legitimacy and validity of various federal elections held on November 3, 2020.”

This week, White House trade adviser Peter Navarro issued a comprehensive report to back the Trump campaign’s claim of election “theft by a thousand cuts.”

Titled “The Immaculate Deception: Six Key Dimensions of Election Irregularities,” it employs charts and other graphics to summarize the evidence from Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. (Read more from “House Republicans Call for Election-Fraud Hearings” HERE)

Health Expert: Withholding Vaccine From Elderly Whites Will ‘Level the Playing Field a Bit’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A University of Pennsylvania expert in health policy says older people should not necessarily be on a priority list for COVID-19 vaccinations because they tend to be white. . .

The expert, Harald Schmidt was quoted in a New York Times article titled “Who should get the coronavirus vaccine first?”

“Older populations are whiter,” he said. “Society is structured in a way that enables them to live longer. Instead of giving additional health benefits to those who already had more of them, we can start to level the playing field a bit.”

His argued it was reasonable to put “essential workers” ahead of older populations, at least partly because they are disproportionately minorities.

The Centers for Disease Control, he said, should integrate the agency’s “social vulnerability index” to determine the order in which people get vaccinated. (Read more from “Health Expert: Withholding Vaccine From Elderly Whites Will ‘Level the Playing Field a Bit'” HERE)

Georgia Poll Workers Who Raised Election Concerns Got Terminated

/0 Comments/in , /by

Poll workers in Georgia who raised concerns about election irregularities were informed this week that their contracts are not being renewed, according to letters obtained by Epoch Media Group.

Bridget Thorne and Susan Voyles say they witnessed abnormal actions taken during the election in Fulton County. They’ve spoken to news outlets and state legislators about what they saw.

In the new letters, Dwight Brower, elections consultant for the Fulton County Department of Registration and Elections, informs the women that Georgia law enables officials to appoint poll managers, and managers must be reappointed for each election event.

“There are many factors (management skills, performance, actions, behavior, etc.) considered prior to making reappointments for each primary or election. Unfortunately, a decision has been made to not reappoint you in a poll management or other poll positions in Fulton County,” Brower wrote.

“I see it as a direct consequence of my being honest,” Voyles told NTD, which is part of Epoch Media Group. (Read more from “Georgia Poll Workers Who Raised Election Concerns Got Terminated” HERE)

Smith & Wesson Sues State Over ‘Anti-Second Amendment Agenda’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A leading firearms manufacturer alleges New Jersey is engaged in an “unconstitutional fishing expedition” to try to curtail gun rights by using a new tactic: false advertising claims.

In a federal lawsuit filed in New Jersey on Tuesday, Smith & Wesson claims New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal has tried everything in his power to stymie gun sales, and that he is now sifting through decades of company advertisements and marketing materials in an extra-legal attempt to restrict the right to bear arms.

In October, Grewal filed administrative subpoenas seeking evidence of fraudulent advertising from the gun manufacturer. The subpoenas request documentation related to advertisements that claim firearms make a home safer, an untrained homeowner could use a Smith & Wesson firearm safely and effectively to defend his home, and whether guns enhance one’s lifestyle.

“The Subpoena presents no legitimate inquiry into any purported fraud, and instead targets mere opinions and other protected statements allegedly made by Smith & Wesson,” the company claims. It seeks a court order enjoining the subpoenas and declaring them unconstitutional.

Citing 248 million results in Google searches of “do guns make you safer” as proof that many Americans believe firearms make them safer, Smith & Wesson says New Jersey’s false advertisement subpoenas should be a dead-end legal theory.

U.S. Doctor Says Half His Nurses Refuse to Take the Vaccine

/1 Comment/in , /by

Chief of critical care at United Memorial Medical Center in Houston, Dr. Joseph Varon, said that half of the nurses in his unit refuse to get the coronavirus vaccine for political reasons, according to an interview conducted by Steve Inskeep of NPR.

When asked about skepticism toward the vaccine among healthcare workers, Varon replied, “Yesterday, I had a – not a fight, but, you know, I had a friendly argument with more than 50% of my nurses in my unit telling me that they will not get the vaccine.” Most of their reasoning for refusing the vaccine was politically motivated, Varon told NPR.

Biden: Hunter Accusations ‘Kind of Foul Play’ That Is ‘Used to Get to Me’

/1 Comment/in , /by

President-elect Joe Biden said he suspects a political agenda is the driving force behind accusations surrounding the federal tax investigation into his son Hunter.

“We have great confidence in our son. I’m not concerned about any accusations that have been made against him. It’s used to get to me. I think it’s kind of foul play, but look, it is what it is,” the incoming president told CBS’s The Late Show on Thursday.

Biden added, “And he’s a grown man. He is the smartest man I know, I mean, in pure intellectual capacity. As long as he’s good, we’re good.”

When host Stephen Colbert asked the president-elect whether any politicization of the investigation would stop him from working with congressional Republicans, he said no if their work “benefits the country.”

Convicted Illegal Child Murderer Freed Into U.S.

/1 Comment/in , /by

An illegal alien, convicted of murdering a child, was released into the United States after serving his prison sentence thanks to California’s sanctuary state law that was again codified by Gov. Gavin Newsom (D).

Carlos Morales-Ramirez, a 44-year-old illegal alien from El Salvador, was convicted in January 1998 of second-degree murder, assault on a child causing death, and great bodily injury to a child causing death in Los Angeles County, California.

In August 2013, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issued a detainer for Morales-Ramirez requesting his transfer to their custody. Instead, the California Department of Corrections released Morales-Ramirez on December 4.

Morales-Ramirez’s release from custody back into the community is in full compliance with the state’s sanctuary law that shields criminal illegal aliens from custody. Newsom codified the policy, again, into state statute last year, making it difficult for ICE agents to have illegal aliens transferred to their custody.

Biden Already Orchestrating Campaign Against 2nd Amendment

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .There’s no doubt that the Democrat intends to move against traditional firearms owned by millions of Americans, but most expected it to be after Jan. 20.

However, the Washington Examiner reports Biden already has released a statement stating “gun violence is a national health crisis.” . . .

“Every year, more than 30,000 people die from gun violence across America — a statistic we would associate with war in a far-off place,” claimed Biden. He apparently was copying a comment from twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton that included suicides in its total. . .

Fox News reported Jennifer Dillon, who previously was Biden’s campaign manager, has called for “mandatory buybacks” of guns.

“We are actually the only campaign with a plan … that supports mandatory buybacks of weapons of war,” she stated at the time. “An assault weapon ban is very, very important, and we need to have it. But that only takes weapons of war off the streets in the future. It does nothing for weapons of war that are currently out there.” (Read more from “Biden Already Orchestrating Campaign Against 2nd Amendment” HERE)
