In 2014, Fr. Terry Gensemer of CEC For Life uncovered an illegal abortion clinic in Selma, Alabama, and began efforts to stop the appalling operation. Now, the coalition of pro-life organizations that developed around those efforts has confirmed that Dr. Samuel Lett is no longer performing abortions in the city of Selma.
The Central Alabama Women’s Clinic, formerly used as Lett’s back-alley abortion clinic, is now operating as a weight-loss facility.
Pro-life leaders from CEC For Life, Operation Rescue, Life Legal Defense Foundation, The National Black Prolife Coalition and Created Equal have been building public awareness around this illegal clinic for nearly two years. Aside from several public campaigns and a historic march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge with Alveda King, Charmaine Yoest and Star Parker, these same organizations have continued to call for state authorities to take action and prevent Lett from becoming the next Gosnell.
Fr. Terry Gensemer, Director of CEC For Life, comments, “We are thankful that Dr. Lett has ceased abortions in Selma, as we know that this same kind of under-the-radar, illegal activity led to the horrors we saw in Kermit Gosnell’s Philadelphia clinic.”
Gensemer also reports that, though Lett has ceased abortions, the coalition is still in communication with state officials regarding other ethical and legal violations that are disconcerting and require action.

By Awr Hawkins. On December 28 Bloomberg Business explained what form Obama’s executive action on gun control will take and predicted it will come “soon after New Year’s Day.”
Breitbart News previously reported that the executive gun control was expected to be an expansion of background checks to cover gun shows or to cover more private sales by changing the legal language relating to private gun owners who sell firearms from their “personal collection,” the way Americans have been doing since 1791.
Bloomberg Business believes Obama has settled on going around Congress to expand background checks by changing the way current law covers private gun owners who sell guns. This approach allows Obama to kill two birds with one stone by expanding background checks to cover more private sales in a way that will also expand checks to private sellers at gun shows.
Would such an expansion have stopped high profile shootings like the Colorado Springs Halloween attack, the Umpqua Community College attack, the August on-air shooting of a reporter and cameraman in Virginia, or the Lafayette theater attack? No. Because all the gunmen and alleged gunmen in these instances passed background checks for their firearms.

State Lawmakers Prep Gun Control Policies for 2016
By Kerry Picket. State lawmakers are scheduled to consider stricter firearms policies when they return to their respective capitol buildings in January.
In Illinois, a bill introduced by a Democratic state lawmaker in late December would revoke a citizen’s firearms owner ID card and result in the seizure of the individual’s firearms, if the person’s name is added to the FBI terror watch list.
A Nevada Democratic state senator announced a similar bill on Dec. 14 that would “prohibit those on the Federal No-Fly List from purchasing firearms in Nevada.” The bill echoes legislation that recently failed to pass Congress.
Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg’s operatives are also pushing to get an initiative on the 2016 Nevada ballot that would criminalize private transfers of firearms. Bloomberg-funded groups are heading to other states like Maine and Arizona to propose similar gun control initiatives. (Read more from “State Lawmakers Prep Gun Control Policies for 2016” HERE)

It often seems the media are attempting to condition Muslims to believe that all Americans hate them and will attack them over the least provocation. So, when one Muslim family decided to go out to eat at an Olive Garden restaurant near Augusta, Georgia they were guarded. But what they experienced that night shocked them and only in the best way possible.
Eslam S. Mohamed and his family decided to go out for a Christmas eve dinner at the chain Italian restaurant. Mohamed told the story of their Christmas eve dinner on his Facebook page where he noted that everyone in the place knew they were Muslims.
“Everyone in the restaurant was knowing that we were Arabs Muslims on the table coz [sic] of the language and the ladies were having scarves over their head (Hijab),” Mohamed wrote on Christmas Day.
The large family of twelve people sat down, had their dinner, and then asked for their bill to pay for the meal. Instead, they only were given a receipt that had already been paid.
Mohamed explained the surprising event on his page:
“After finishing we asked for the receipts and the waitress came to us with that receipt in the picture.” As shown on his page, the receipt had written across it “Paid Merry Christmas Beautiful Family.” (Read more from “Muslim Family Goes out to Eat on Christmas Eve, 4 Words Left on Their Bill Blow Them Away” HERE)

The tyranny of ridiculous political correctness is on full display in New York City, where a new update to anti-discrimination laws means being confused by someone else’s gender confusion could cost you $250,000.
The city’s Commission on Human Rights has updated “Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Expression” codes to implement huge fines for property of business owners who make the mistake of “misgendering” employees or tenants with non-traditional gender identities.
The language of the changes outlines just how careful New Yorkers will have to be:
The NYCHRL requires employers and covered entities to use an individual’s preferred name, pronoun and title (e.g., Ms./Mrs.) regardless of the individual’s sex assigned at birth, anatomy, gender, medical history, appearance, or the sex indicated on the individual’s identification. Most individuals and many transgender people use female or male pronouns and titles.
Some transgender and gender non-conforming people prefer to use pronouns other than he/him/his or she/her/hers, such as they/them/theirs or ze/hir.

Late in a life lived unnervingly near the nuclear abyss, William J. Perry is on a mission to warn of a “real and growing danger” of nuclear doom.
The 88-year-old former defense secretary is troubled by the risks of catastrophe from the very weapons he helped develop. Atop his list: a nuclear terror attack in a major U.S. city or a shooting war with Russia that, through miscalculation, turns nuclear. A terrorist attack using a nuclear bomb or improvised nuclear device could happen “any time now – next year or the year after,” he said in an interview with reporters earlier this month.
Perry chooses his words with the precision of a mathematician, which he was before entering the defense world in the mid-1950s. He played a central role in developing and modernizing nuclear forces throughout the Cold War – first as a technology whiz-kid and later a three-time senior Pentagon executive. During the 1962 Cuban missile crisis Perry was secretly summoned to Washington to analyze intelligence on Soviet weapons in Cuba.

Millions of air travelers across the U.S. are potentially at risk of finding themselves grounded in the new year thanks to a post-9/11 law that took a decade to finally come into effect.
The REAL ID Act, originally passed in 2005, was meant to tighten standards for government-issued IDs like driver’s licenses — to boot, it banned federal agencies from accepting any IDs that don’t meet the bar.
That means the TSA technically shouldn’t accept driver’s licenses from certain states, once the law is in full effect. While Washington let the rules slide for years, the Department of Homeland Security could start to enforce them in 2016 and is pushing states to comply.
And that has the potential to cause confusion, not to mention headaches at the airport — as many states are still not in full compliance, and different states are operating on different timetables . . .
DHS is enforcing the legislation in stages. Currently, it is only requiring the enhanced IDs for access to federal facilities. Some states have extensions, but those are set to expire next year — in January, June and October, depending on the state. (Read more from “Terminal Confusion? DHS Push Could Make Some IDs Invalid for Flying” HERE)

In April 2012, a Kansas SWAT team raided the home of Robert and Addie Harte, their 7-year-old daughter and their 13-year-old son. The couple, both former CIA analysts, awoke to pounding at the door. When Robert Harte answered, SWAT agents flooded the home. He was told to lie on the floor. When Addie Harte came out to see what was going on, she saw her husband on his stomach as SWAT cop stood over him with a gun. The family was then held at gunpoint for more than two hours while the police searched their home. Though they claimed to be looking for evidence of a major marijuana growing operation, they later stated that they knew within about 20 minutes that they wouldn’t find any such operation. So they switched to search for evidence of “personal use.” They found no evidence of any criminal activity.
The investigation leading to the raid began at least seven months earlier, when Robert Harte and his son went to a gardening store to purchase supplies to grow hydroponic tomatoes for a school project. A state trooper had been positioned in the store parking lot to collect the license plate numbers of customers, compile them into a spreadsheet, then send the spreadsheets to local sheriff’s departments for further investigation. Yes, merely shopping at a gardening store could make you the target of a criminal drug investigation.
More than half a year later, the Johnson County Sheriff’s Department began investigating the Hartes as part of “Operation Constant Gardener,” basically a PR stunt in which the agency conducts multiple pot raids on April 20, or “4/20.” On several occasions, the Sheriff’s Department sent deputies out to sort through the family’s garbage. (The police don’t need a warrant to sift through your trash.) The deputies repeatedly found “saturated plant material” that they thought could possibly be marijuana. On two occasions, a drug testing field kit inexplicably indicated the presence of THC, the active drug in marijuana. It was on the basis of those tests and Harte’s patronage of a gardening store that the police obtained the warrant for the SWAT raid . . .
Last week, U.S. District Court Judge John W. Lungstrum dismissed every one of the Hartes’s claims. Lungstrum found that sending a SWAT team into a home first thing in the morning based on no more than a positive field test and spotting a suspect at a gardening store was not a violation of the Fourth Amendment. He found that the police had probable cause for the search, and that the way the search was conducted did not constitute excessive force. He found that the Hartes had not been defamed by the raid or by the publicity surrounding it. He also ruled that the police were under no obligation to know that drug testing field kits are inaccurate, nor were they obligated to wait for the more accurate lab tests before conducting the SWAT raid. The only way they’d have a claim would be if they could show that the police lied about the results, deliberately manipulated the tests or showed a reckless disregard for the truth — and he ruled that the Hartes had failed to do so.

While a number of celebrities and other high-profile Americans – including Barack Obama – have faced criticism for their perceived or explicit disdain for Israel, one popular Saturday Night Live alum recently joined talk radio legend Howard Stern in firmly defending the longtime U.S. ally.
Adam Sandler appeared on Stern’s program recently to applaud the host for taking a stand against musician Roger Waters, who declared he would not perform in Israel.
“I’m disgusted that they single out Israel,” Sandler said, “that, ‘We can’t play Israel.’ All these f—king nice Israeli people are getting a f—k you from Roger Waters.”
Sandler went on to acknowledge that, while he is not “crazy religious,” he is “proud of being a Jew” and is an outspoken defender of the Jewish nation.
“I’m very pro-Israel,” he confirmed, “and when someone says s—t about Israel – I know people say s—t about Israel – and they f—king won’t play,” he told Stern, “and when you go off on Roger Waters, I love that you do that.” (Read more from “Hollywood Star Just Broke His Silence and DESTROYED Fellow Celebrities in Most Brutally Honest Way” HERE)

When Donald Trump and his team were planning his presidential campaign, they drew up a budget of $25 million for television advertising in the third quarter of this year.
They wound up spending zero for the rest of 2015.
That is about to change. Sources in the Trump camp say they will soon launch a major ad blitz that could cost at least $2 million a week, and possibly several times that.
The initial wave of ads will focus on Trump’s vision and his stance on key issues—no bio spots necessary for the celebrity candidate—but that could change if any GOP rivals target him with negative commercials. “If you attack Trump, he will attack you 10 times as hard,” an adviser says. “We will not allow any attack to go unanswered.”
The Trump camp is working with a Florida-based advertising firm, as widely reported, but also with several other media companies, some of which are well-known in the political community, the sources say. (Read more from “Trump Plots Big TV Ad Blitz That Could Change Campaign Landscape” HERE)

Our Framers vested the people’s representatives – the United States Congress – with plenary power over immigration. At the core of the social compact and the unalienable right to governance by the consent of the governed, as echoed in the preamble of the Declaration of Independence, is the notion that the citizens who formed that compact have the right to determine who joins their society.
Over the years, Congress has (for the most part) done its job and passed statutes protecting our sovereignty. But the executive branch, and more recently, the federal courts, have ignored our laws and the will of the people. Here are two stories just from this week on how both the Obama administration and the unelected federal courts are violating that sovereignty. This is the worst form of social transformation without representation and will be the focus of my upcoming book next year.
Suspension of Deportations
Yesterday, the Department of Homeland Security released its deportation numbers for 2015. The numbers are not pretty. Here are the salient bullet points from the Center for Immigration Studies:
Total deportations by ICE (including both border and interior cases) declined 25% from last year, from 315,943 in 2014 to 235,413 in 2015.
Interior deportations by ICE declined 31% from last year, from 100,114 in 2014 to 69,478 in 2015.
Most concerning, deportations of criminal aliens from the interior declined 27% from last year, from 86,923 in 2014 to 63,127 in 2015.
Remember, this drop is just for 2015. It is the fourth consecutive year with a sharp drop in deportations from the previous year. Since Obama began his amnesty programs in 2011, deportations have dropped to less than one-third their annual level prior to Obama’s suspension of congressional statutes. What about criminal aliens? Wasn’t the purpose of amnesty to focus just on criminal aliens? They also plummeted by almost 60%.
You can read more about the appalling number of criminal aliens released into our population here.
Judicial Amnesty for Homosexual Illegal Aliens
In a disturbing trend, even the few individual illegal aliens this administration is willing to deport are being released into our population by federal judges – the unelected branch of government that has no authority over immigration. Two of the many ways they are granting judicial amnesty is by applying international law or by abusing our asylum statutes to suspend deportations of illegal aliens who declare themselves homosexual or transgender.
In September, we reported on a Ninth Circuit judge who suspended the deportation of a dangerous criminal alien claiming to be transgendered and in fear of returning home to Mexico. Yesterday, the Miami Herald reported that a federal judge in Florida is granting full amnesty to José Crespo-Cagnant, an illegal alien who crossed over from Mexico using false identity on multiple occasions. The judge, who was appointed by George H. W. Bush, sided with the illegal immigrant who claimed that, because he is homosexual, he has a well-founded fear of persecution were he to be repatriated to Mexico. Even though the border patrol agent asserts that he never heard Crespo-Cagnant express a fear of persecution. The agent complied with the ridiculous regulations required to place him in deportation proceedings, yet the judge sided with the illegal alien.
We now have unelected judges determining who gets to stay in this country by simply concocting a super-right – a de facto affirmative right to immigrate for any homosexual from a third world country. This is what happens when we allow the court system to create new protected classes and super-rights for foreign nationals at the expense of the unalienable rights of the sovereign citizen. The courts must be stripped of their jurisdiction to adjudicate these cases otherwise we will no longer determine our own destiny.
Let us not forget the words of Gouverneur Morris, one of the key drafters of the Constitution, at the Constitutional Convention: “every society from a great nation down to a club had the right of declaring the conditions on which new members should be admitted.” It’s time we exercise that right and demand Congress reassert the will of the people over the lawlessness of the unelected branches of government.
