New Scandal in Obama’s War Against Netanyahu

. . .Last October, WND CEO Joseph Farah pointed out the Obama administration sent money in 2015 to a non-profit U.S. group that sought to prevent Benjamin Netanyahu from forming a coalition government to remain as prime minister.

Now there’s new information, according to the American Center for Law and Justice, that the Obama administration’s intervention was even worse.

ACLJ said that in response to a Freedom of Information Act request, it “uncovered a startling revelation.”

“Yasser Mahmoud Abbas, son of Mahmoud Abbas, the leader of the terrorist-allied Palestinian Authority, was also a senior leader and advisor to OneVoice – and, as demonstrated by the contents of the documents themselves, the Obama administration knew this,” ACLJ said in a report Wednesday.

“In short, the Obama State Department gave U.S. taxpayer dollars to a terrorist-affiliated organization (the PA recently united with the terrorist group Hamas) to unseat the democratically elected leader of the only free democracy in the Middle East and a vital U.S. ally.” (Read more from “New Scandal in Obama’s War Against Netanyahu” HERE)

Obama’s ICE ‘Missed Opportunities’ to Arrest High-Risk Terror-Linked Aliens

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency under former President Barack Obama may have failed to identify and arrest “highest risk” known or suspected terrorist aliens due to the absence of follow-up screenings after they are released.

Sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with immigration authorities also prevented the agency from following up on the individuals in question, reveals a watchdog agency.

Based on a study of case files of detained aliens identified as known or suspected terrorists during fiscal years 2013 through 2015, the inspector general for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) found:

ICE continues to face significant challenges with its screening of aliens who may have ties to terrorism. Auditors warn ICE may have missed opportunities to identify, apprehend, and adjudicate the status of aliens posing the highest risk to public safety and national security.

The audit indicated law enforcement agencies in sanctuary cities prevent ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) from screening criminal aliens for terrorist ties. (Read more from “Obama’s ICE ‘Missed Opportunities’ to Arrest High-Risk Terror-Linked Aliens” HERE)

Trump Website Removes Hidden Jab at Obama, the Replacement Might Be Even Better

A hidden piece of code inside President Donald Trump’s website that would replace the basic “page not found” error message with a snarky comment about former President Barack Obama has been removed from the website.

The Washington Post data reporter Christopher Ingraham first found the code that read “Oops! Something went wrong. Unlike Obama, we are working to fix the problem… and not on the golf course” and shared his discovery on Twitter.

According to Ingraham, the code appears on every action.donaldjtrump.com page paid for by the RNC.

The error message is also on some official GOP sites paired with a 404 error message that says “What do Hillary Clinton and this link have in common? They’re both dead broke,” Tech Crunch reported.

One Twitter user pointed out that the jab at Obama would never show up because the code used a single equal sign instead of the two that were needed.

The code about Clinton was similary “broken.”

However, soon after its discovery, the code was removed from the websites, replaced, according to BizPac Review, with, “Don’t worry, we’re making it great again.”

This code unveiling comes as the mainstream media has begun piling on in criticism of Trump’s recorded fifth straight day golfing during his winter vacation at Mar-a-Lago.

During his campaign in 2016, Trump said, “I’m going to be working for you. I’m not going to have time to play golf,” according to Newsweek.

The criticism for his golfing habit started this week, the day after he tweeted that he was going to go “back to work in order to Make America Great Again.”

Ingraham drew his conclusion that someone is “sensitive enough to Trump’s golf problem to make this issue go away quickly once people noticed” and expressed his desire to see what led to the coding change.

Famous Actor Pegs Obama: ‘He’s a Muslim’

Actor James Woods tweeted the once unmentionable over the weekend about Barack Obama.

“He is a Muslim,” wrote Woods. “He can deny it, his apologists in the media can refute it, and his enablers can promote a narrative that he is a Christian. It’s a pack of lies. Obama is a Muslim and that is where his allegiance lies. Always has. Always will.”

Crediting Any of This to Obama Is Absurd

t’s stories like this that make it absolutely impossible to have sensible conversations with liberals. Trump is now nearly a year into his presidency, and the economy, by any reasonable measure, is booming.

For example:

Economic growth rates have now, for 2 consecutive quarters, surpassed 3 percent — an annual growth rate that Obama never achieved in any year of his presidency.

The unemployment rate is dropping as the labor force participation rate is going up, a phenomenon that largely eluded Obama during his presidency.

Wages are finally rising. This only happened during a brief period at the end of the Obama presidency.

Crediting any of this to Obama is absurd. How does any reasonable Obama supporter explain away the fact that after 8 years of the Obama tax hikes, regulatory overreach, and explosive government spending, our economy grew at the slowest pace in modern times? And yet, when Trump entered the Oval Office, this all turned around as Obama’s policies were slowly dismantled.

We’re never going to be able to evaluate the effects of sensible economic policies if we continue to ignore the reality staring us in the face. Facts matter. (For more from the author of “Crediting Any of This to Obama Is Absurd” please click HERE)

Obama Complains About Trump’s Move to Remove US From Paris Deal

Former President Barack Obama lamented Saturday President Donald Trump’s administration’s decision to pull the U.S. from the Paris climate accord.

“I grant you that at the moment we have a temporary absence of American leadership on the issue,” Obama said at an invitation-only event in Paris. Obama did not mention President Donald Trump by name, but he did allude to the administration’s move to opt out of the accord.

The U.S. remains on track to meet the agreement, he said, referring to a state-based coalition designed to fill the void left. Obama met with French President Emanuel Macron earlier in the day during a private conversation the French presidency did not publicize.

Obama did appear to recognize the frustration many Europeans are feeling about the EU’s increasing intrusion into people’s lives.

“I think for example that the European Union needs to recognize that micro-managing every single aspect of life within Europe gets people frustrated,” he said. (Read more from “Obama Complains About Trump’s Move to Remove US From Paris Deal” HERE)

Report: Trump Continues to Hit Obama for His Fake Birth Certificate, Ineligibility for POTUS

President Donald Trump has continued to question the legitimacy of former President Barack Obama’s birth certificate during private conversations in recent months, The New York Times reported, citing advisers who discussed Trump’s statements . . .

One sitting US senator quoted by the Times, “who listened as the President revived his doubts” about the issue, “chuckled” when speaking about what was said. Trump “has had a hard time letting go of his claim that Mr. Obama was not born in the United States,” the senator, who “asked not to be named to discuss private conversations,” told The New York Times . . .

Although Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961, Trump publicly questioned Obama’s citizenship for several years before saying in a news conference during the 2016 election that he believed the nation’s first African-American president was born in the US.

In September 2016, Trump said, “President Barack Obama was born in the United States.” (Read more from “Report: Trump Continues to Hit Obama for His Fake Birth Certificate, Ineligibility for POTUS” HERE)

Obama Rarely Prosecuted Criminals Who Sought to Buy Guns Illegally

More than 100,000 convicted felons or other “prohibited persons” tried to buy guns each year during President Barack Obama’s administration by lying on their applications, but the Justice Department only considered prosecuting about 30 to 40 people each year, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation.

The Obama administration may have publicly aligned itself with anti-gun activists, but it consistently turned a blind eye to prosecute known criminals who tried to buy guns.

A June 2016 Justice Department Inspector General’s report revealed that between 2008 and 2015 the U.S. Attorneys office considered prosecuting “less than 32 people per year” for lying on form 4473, the federal application to buy guns.

Surprisingly, the Obama administration’s harshest critics are gun manufacturers themselves.

“People could do what is called, ‘lie and buy,’” explained Lawrence Keane, a senior vice president of the National Shooting Sports Foundation, a nonprofit organization that represents gun manufacturers. (Read more from “Obama Rarely Prosecuted Criminals Who Sought to Buy Guns Illegally” HERE)

Another Gold Star Mom Comes Forward, Announces She Was Disrespected by Obama

A Gold Star mother has come forward to talk about how former President Barack Obama disrespected the memory of her son.

Julie Schrock is the mother of Corporal Max Donahue, a Marine who died in 2010 at the age of 23 after being severely injured in Afghanistan.

Recently, she wrote a letter to New York Post columnist Michael Goodwin detailing the mistreatment she received at the hands of the Obama administration.

“I’m a Gold Star mother and it pains me to see what is happening. The media bias is obvious to anyone willing to dig a little deeper than just believing what they hear on the news,” Schrock’s letter read.

“When my son died, then President Obama not only made no effort to reach out, but the condolence letter we received was signed by a computer,” she added.

Schrock claimed Obama didn’t even bother to sign the letter.

“Then, when I received multiple copies of the letter, I was told there was a computer ‘glitch’ that wasn’t fixed yet so more would probably keep coming and I should just throw them away. Not even a Sorry!”

Schrock said she anonymously reported this to her local news station, but they only reported it once “versus the three days of Trump mishandling of a Gold star condolence.”

She said that was “sad and hurtful to say the least.”

Treatment of Gold Star families was thrust into the spotlight after Trump claimed during a news conference earlier this month that Obama didn’t make phone calls to the families of fallen soldiers.

“President Obama and other presidents, most of them didn’t make calls,” Trump said. “I call when it’s appropriate.”

However, this comment sparked a backlash that further intensified when Democratic Rep. Frederica Wilson of Florida claimed Trump was disrespectful during his phone conversation with Myeshia Johnson, the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson, who was one of four soldiers killed in an Oct. 4 ambush in Niger carried out by fighters affiliated with the Islamic State group.

“He knew what he signed up for … but when it happens, it hurts anyway,” Wilson claimed Trump said.

“Yeah, he said that,” Wilson said. “So insensitive. He should not have said that — he shouldn’t have said it.”

In response, White House Chief of Staff John Kelly came out to defend the president’s call, indicating that Wilson’s account was somewhat fabricated.

Kelly, a Gold Star father himself, had advised Trump on what to say during the phone call.

“He was where he wanted to be, exactly where he wanted to be, with exactly the people he wanted to be with when his life was taken,” Kelly said. “That was the message. That was the message that was transmitted. (For more from the author of “Another Gold Star Mom Comes Forward, Announces She Was Disrespected by Obama” please click HERE)

Jets-For-Jihadis Newest Wrinkle in Iran-Deal Probe

When President Trump announced last week he would not recertify Barack Obama’s expensive deal with Iran to stop its nuclear-weapons program, he cited a number of “serious flaws.”

He said Iran’s “fanatic regime” repeatedly has attacked and killed Americans, violated the limits on nuclear materials, ensured there will be no effective inspections and continues to pursue a missile program.

Now a new problem with the deal is being investigated: Obama allowed Boeing to sell airliners to Iran’s domestic airline companies, which are using them to transport military personnel and weapons.

The American Center for Law and Justice revealed Tuesday it has launched a Freedom of Information Act fight to obtain documents regarding any accommodations granted by Obama that facilitate Iran’s efforts to “transport jihadist soldiers to the battlefield.”

Such practices are “a blatant violation of international law,” ACLJ said. (Read more from “Jets-For-Jihadis Newest Wrinkle in Iran-Deal Probe'” HERE)
