Ilhan Omar Uses Iconic Words From George Bush to Defend Her 9/11 Comments. The Internet Erupts.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) used iconic words former president George W. Bush made at Ground Zero atop a heap of rubble in New York City in September 2001 to defend her widely-criticized remarks trivializing the 9/11 terrorist attack that claimed thousands of American lives. . .

The Democrat posted the outrageous defense in a tweet published on Friday:

“The people — and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!” President George W. Bush

Was Bush downplaying the terrorist attack?

Predictably, Omar then suggested her criticism derives from her being Muslim: “What if he was a Muslim?” she added to the tweet.

The freshman congresswoman’s defense received swift backlash online, since, of course, no one in his right mind would suggest then-President Bush was downplaying anything. Bush was simply threatening those who carried out the attack in its immediate aftermath — directly the opposite of Omar’s callous trivialization.

HIDDEN CAM VIDEO: ‘Pregnant’ Transgender Visits Planned Parenthood!

This is the latest, and possibly most outrageous installment of hidden camera experiments that we’ve done yet.

It’s relatively simple. Planned Parenthood is the self-proclaimed #1 provider of women’s healthcare in the country! They also have released official guidelines to their employees as “inclusivity” in regards to transgender patients… Which flies in the face of biology, and even, yes… actual health services performed.

So we sent in “Stephanie” a “pregnant” transgender to see just how far they’d take it… as well as how far we’ve fallen. Prepare for a bumpy and disturbing ride.

Senator Admits Obama Admin Could Have Legitimately Spied on Trump Campaign

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said on Thursday that there was still a possibility that the Trump campaign was surveilled by the government in a legitimate fashion.

“Clearly the foreign intelligence surveillance act was used against the Trump campaign,” said Graham to CNN’s Manu Raju.

“That’s a form of surveillance,” he explained. “It is, surveillance is fine, but it’s legal, it’s authorized. Counter-intelligence investigation was opened up against the Trump campaign. That by its nature, surveillance is fine.”

“I think what Mr. Barr is saying is that this didn’t happen in the Clinton campaign, there was no counterintelligence investigation I know of against the Clinton campaign there was no FISA warrants opened up against her people,” Graham said. “The question is why did the government open up a counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign, and was the FISA warrant legit?” . . .

The comment seemed to go against an earlier statement from the president, who seemed absolutely certain that the Obama administration had illegally spied on his presidential campaign. (Read more from “Senator Admits Obama Admin Could Have Legitimately Spied on Trump Campaign” HERE)

House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff May Be No More

Rep. Matt Gaetez (R-FL) on Wednesday filed a resolution to remove House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) from the Committee and revoke his security clearance. . .

“I have filed legislation today, sent to the House, that Adam Schiff needs to be removed from the Intelligence Committee, because how are the rest of us supposed to be able to rely on a man, who you just showed, lied to the American people when he said that there was not spying? Or when he lied and said that there was actual evidence of collusion or clear evidence of collusion?” Gaetz began. . .

This shouldn’t come as a surprise to Schiff. After all, he spent the last two years pushing the collusion story. And, even after Attorney General William Barr said no collusion took place between the Trump campaign and Russia, Schiff still continues to push the collusion theory. In fact, he wants even more investigations and testimony because he didn’t like the results.

New Investigation Opened on FBI for 2016 Trump Surveillance

By The Blaze. After years of complaints from Republicans and allies of the president, Attorney General William Barr revealed that the FBI is being investigated over FISA surveillance on the Trump campaign in 2016.

“The Office of the Inspector General has a pending investigation of the FISA process in the Russian investigation, and I expect that that will be complete in probably in May or June, I am told,” said Barr during congressional testimony Tuesday.

The president alleged that he had been “wire tapped” by the former Obama administration, which later admitted that some members of the campaign had been surveilled during an investigation into claims of Russian interference in the 2016 election. . .

“More generally,” Barr said, “I am reviewing the conduct of the investigation and trying to get my arms around of all the aspects of the counter-intelligence investigation that was conducted during the summer of 2016.”

Barr Redactions Could Spark More Displeasure From Mueller’s Team

By Politico. As Attorney General William Barr decides how much of Robert Mueller’s report to release publicly, recent reports about discontent within the special counsel’s team send a clear message to Barr: redactions are subject to debate.

Legal analysts and lawmakers overseeing the Russia probe — including House members who grilled Barr on Tuesday — say that even if Barr blacks out key portions of Mueller’s report — citing factors like grand jury secrecy, classification and confidentiality — before releasing it, Mueller’s associates might second-guess him via the media or Congress.

Barr “might not have quite as much discretion without some consequences here,” said Andy Wright, a former associate White House counsel to President Barack Obama. Wright said the message is that Barr “only has so much time and so much wiggle room” to delay and redact Mueller’s report before its public release without risking “further disclosures from that team.”

The reports about sentiments within the special counsel’s team started last week in The New York Times and led to follow-up coverage in other media outlets describing frustrations inside Mueller’s team over how Barr portrayed its work and declined to release detailed executive summary materials they’d prepared.

Burger King Faces Stark Criticism for What Many Social Media Users Are Saying Is a Culturally Insensitive Ad. Here It Is.

Burger King aired an ad in New Zealand featuring one of the franchise’s latest offerings: the Vietnamese Sweet Chili Tendercrisp. . .

A caption for the company’s Instagram campaign read, “Take your taste buds all the way to Ho Chi Minh City with our Vietnamese Sweet Chili Tendercrisp, part of our Tastes of the World range. Available for a limited time only.”

One Korean New Zealander told the Huffington Post that she immediately took offense to the ad. . .

“[People of color] are constantly having to deal with microaggressions as well as outright hatred and it just never ends,” Mo added. “I was watching it thinking there must be some kind of layered twist ― only to realise, no, there was no twist, it really was that base level.” . . .

“We are truly sorry that the ad has appeared insensitive to our community,” said James Woodbridge, who the outlet identified as the restaurant’s general manager for marketing. “We have removed it and it certainly does not reflect our brand values around diversity and inclusion.”

Swalwell Is Running for President. Here’s People’s Instant Reaction.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) on Monday announced his intention for running for president on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.” . . .

Not everyone was excited about the what they saw. In fact, Swalwell has made a name for himself as anti-gunner and, like practically every other 2020 Democrat, plans to run on the gun control issue.

‘Smallville’ Actress Pleads Guilty to Charges in ‘Sex Slave Cult’ Case

TV star Allison Mack pleaded guilty on Monday to charges concerning her involvement with a “sex slave cult” known as NXIVM. Mack, an alleged victim-turned-victimizer of the cult, pleaded guilty to manipulating women into becoming sex slaves for leader Keith Raniere.

“I believed Keith Raniere’s intentions were to help people … and I was wrong,” Mack told a judge at a federal court in Brooklyn, according to the Associated Press. . .

Mack claimed Raniere had her obtain “compromising information and images” of two women, who have not been named, and threaten them with leaking the sensitive information if they did not perform “acts of love” with Raniere.

“Court papers allege NXIVM formed a secret society of women who were branded with Raniere’s initials and forced to have sex with him. Defense attorneys have insisted any relationship between Raniere and the alleged victims, including an unidentified actress and other women expected to testify against him at trial, was consensual,” the AP report said.

As reported by The Daily Wire last April, Mack was rumored to be one of the cult’s top recruiters. Past tweets from the actress, directed at high-profile Hollywood figures like actress Emma Watson and singer Kelly Clarkson, seemingly reveal some of her recruitment tactics.

Obama’s Confession About Assimilation May Land Him in Hot Water With Fellow Dems

During a town hall in Berlin for the Obama Foundation, former President Barack Obama defended the idea of immigrants assimilating to the American way of life. He believes that “some form of assimilation” is necessary and even refuted the idea that “assimilation of newcomers to the existing culture is somehow betrayal or a denial of people’s heritage.”

“And so some of the assimilation that inevitably takes place is gonna take a little bit longer, but some of those principles still apply, and I worry sometimes as we think about how to deal with the immigration issue we think that any moves towards assimilation of newcomers to the existing culture is somehow betrayal or a denial of people’s heritage or what have you,” Obama told the audience. “The truth of the matter is that if you’re going to have a coherent, cohesive society then everybody has to have some agreed upon rules, and there’s gonna have to be some accommodations that everybody makes, and that includes the people who are newcomers.”

What’s interesting is Obama said something many people have said for years: assimilation doesn’t mean losing who you are, where you came from or the culture you grew up with. It means having respect for the nation you’re coming to and the people who are born, raised and currently reside there.

“The question is, are those fair? Should we want to encourage newcomers to learn the language of the country they’re moving to? Of course. Does that mean they can never use their own language. No,” Obama said. “Of course it doesn’t mean that, but it’s not racist to say if you’re gonna be here then you should learn the language of the country you just arrived at, because we need to have some sort of common language in which all of us can work and learn and understand each other.”

Delusional Beto Strikes Again

Earlier this week, 2020 Democratic presidential candidate former Rep. Robert “Beto” O’Rourke (D-TX) held a town hall in Iowa. During the event, O’Rourke said America would be “demonstrably safer” for everyone, but in particular, Angel Families, those who have had a family member(s) killed by an illegal alien. . .

“I know you are for tearing down existing wall … and you’re basically for open borders. Have you ever met any Angel Moms here in Iowa?” an Iowan asked O’Rourke. “There’s a woman by the name of Michelle Root, who lives about a hundred miles east of here. And her daughter Sarah was killed by a drunk illegal alien right after she graduated from college … what would you tell her about your immigration stance?”

Instead of admitting that he’s in favor of open borders and mass migration to the United States, O’Rourke twisted the voter’s question. . .

“We will be demonstrably safer when we know who is in this country and right now there are millions, there are millions in those shadows that we know nothing about today. Give them the chance to get right with the law. Come into the light of day. Contribute even more to the success of this country,” O’Rourke explained. “If they have committed crimes, deport them back to their countries of origin. But if they are contributing to the success of our country, they’re raising U.S.-citizen children, let’s offer them a future here in the United States of America.”

If you talk to these Angel Families it’s very unlikely that any of them would think that the answer to the problem is by adding fuel to the fire. Allowing anyone who is here illegally to stay here and have a future in the United States is not only a slap in the face to these families but a disgrace to those Americans who lost their lives to illegal aliens.
