Your Hardworking Senate Passes Pro-Media Resolution: ‘Not the Enemy of the People’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States Senate took a rhetorical stand against President Donald Trump Thursday, passing a resolution defending the press and declaring that the press is “not the enemy of the people.”

This nonbinding resolution passed with unanimous consent by voice vote and was introduced by Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.

This resolution follows tweets Trump sent Thursday morning criticizing the “FAKE NEWS” media.

It’s nice to know the United States Senate called off the August recess to stay in Washington and pass virtue-signaling resolutions offered by Democrats to throw shade at the president.

Now how about the senators get to work securing the border and addressing the staggering national debt? (For more from the author of “Your Hardworking Senate Passes Pro-Media Resolution: ‘Not the Enemy of the People’” please click HERE)

The Washington Post Crosses a Very Dangerous Line

/0 Comments/in , /by

At what point do outlets like The Washington Post, The New York Times and CNN cross the line from being far-left sites who irrationally despise President Donald Trump to potentially inciting indiscriminate violence with truly despicable and dangerous words? . . .

In an outrageous screed going after Trump titled “The Path to Autocracy is all too familiar,” the liberal propaganda sheet for the “Resistance,” attached a photo of “Hitler youth” gleefully burning books. . .

Fully understanding that multi-billionaire Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos may himself be biased against Trump and may not grasp – or choose to ignore — the escalating danger of such potentially violence-inciting pieces, there are still some well-respected “adults in the room” at the paper who most certainly do understand that threat.

Where are their voices? Why are they silent? Who has the courage and decency at that paper to say that these reprehensible connections of the President of the United States to Hitler, the Holocaust, and genocide must stop?

Not only are they obscenely insulting to the millions of Jews and others put to death by Hitler and his collection of Nazi psychopaths, but they are purposeful lies seeking to facilitate a desired political outcome for reasons of ideology.

Trump’s Lawyer Rudy Giuliani Exposes Who Is Behind the Entire Mueller Investigation

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Daily Caller. President Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani announced on Monday evening that he believes former CIA Director John Brennan is the person responsible for the entire Mueller investigation. Giuliani made the claim during a segment of “Hannity” on Fox News.

“She got off because of that fixed investigation. A totally phony fixed investigation run by Peter Strzok who then turns around, the dossier is obtained on the day that they dropped the case against Trump — against Hillary. So that case gets dropped and they had to even up the score,” Giuliani stated.

“The reality is I’m going to tell you. We don’t have the time to go into it, we can do it later, I’m going to tell you who was the quarterback for all of this. It isn’t just Strzok. Strzok is a bit of a puppet. Then there’s Mueller, he’s a puppet. The people working for him, some of them are,” he continued. . .

“Well the guy running it is [John] Brennan and he should be in front of a grand jury. Brennan took an affidavit – a dossier, unless he’s the biggest idiot intelligence agent that ever existed, although he never did much intelligence work, it’s false. You could look at it and laugh,” Giuliani stated. (Read more from “Trump’s Lawyer Rudy Giuliani Exposes Who Is Behind the Entire Mueller Investigation” HERE)

Rudy Giuliani Says John Brennan Should Face Grand Jury Over His Role in Spreading Trump-Russia Dossier

By Newsweek. . .Giuliani said that Brennan peddled false affidavits conjured up by Strzok, who had previously headed the FBI’s investigation into Russia’s contacts with the Trump campaign and its meddling in the 2016 election, to advance the inquiry.

“Unless he’s the biggest idiot intelligence agent that ever existed—although he never really did much intelligence work—it’s false,” Giuliani said. “You could look at [the dossier] and laugh at it. And he peddled it to Harry Reid. That led to the request for the investigation. So he takes a false affidavit, a false dossier, he gets these senators involved, a couple of Republican senators, and they demand an investigation. A totally phony investigation.

“Now, why can’t we get an investigation, when there are clear facts showing possible violations of the law?” Giuliani asked.

Brennan testified before the House Intelligence Committee in May 2017, and said he made sure any information his agency came across about U.S. persons, the Trump campaign and Russia went to the FBI.

Omarosa Hit With Charges Following Trump Allegations

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump’s campaign filed an arbitration charge on Tuesday against Omarosa Manigault Newman after she made numerous derogatory remarks about the president in her upcoming book. The campaign claimed that she broke a nondisclosure agreement that she apparently signed in 2016.

The arbitration, filed in New York, comes after Newman made numerous claims in her book that have already been shot down by other parties involved. The Washington Examiner reports:

According to a sample of the agreement provided to Secrets, she was required to keep proprietary information about the president, his companies or his family confidential and to never “disparage” the Trump family “during the term of your service and at all times thereafter.”

. . .

Another claim, that Trump took a note from his former personal lawyer and ate it in front of him, has also received pushback:

After Trump Slams Turkish Government, Turkish Lawyers Accuse U.S. Military Officers of ‘Terrorist Ties’

/0 Comments/in , /by

According to Stars and Stripes, the court papers accuse the officers of having connections to FETO, a group deemed a terrorist organization by Turkey, and call for the arrest of several officers associated with Incirlik Air Base in Turkey, including Col. John C. Walker, Col. Michael H. Manion, Col. David Eaglen, Col. David Trucksa, Lt. Col. Timothy J. Cook, Lt. Col. Mack R. Coker, and Sgts. Thomas S. Cooper and Vegas M. Clark. . .

The organization behind the filing, the Association for Social Justice and Aid, is reportedly a non-governmental organization of supporters of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

The legal action comes amid increasing tension between the two countries over Turkey’s refusal to release North Carolina Christian pastor Andrew Brunson, who Turkey claims supported PKK Kurdish militants and assisted a Turkish cleric based in Pennsylvania, who allegedly is responsible for the attempted 2016 coup against Erdogan.

The U.S. later officially imposed financial sanctions on two ministers and doubled steel and aluminum tariffs on Turkey, resulting in the Turkish currency hitting a record low of 7.23 per dollar.

An American spokeswoman for Incirlik Air Base told Stars and Stripes that the U.S. will continue to carry out their mission at the base and they are “proud of the relationship we have with our Turkish military partners.” (Read more from “After Trump Slams Turkish Government, Turkish Lawyers Accuse U.S. Military Officers of ‘Terrorist Ties'” HERE)

Sources: Trump to Deport Assassin Who Lives in U.S.

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump appears likely to deport a Bangladeshi military officer who was part of a notorious assassination team that murdered the country’s revered founder and nearly his entire family in 1975, Bangladeshi officials have told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Major AM Rashed Chowdhury was part of an assassination team that carried out a brutal, early dawn raid on Aug. 15, 1975, on President Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s residence.

The major, along with the other assailants, were convicted in abstentia in 1998 — 23 years after the assassination. The conviction was upheld by the Bangladesh Supreme Court in 2009 and 12 officers were condemned to death. Six of the killers were executed a year later, but the others, including Chowdhury, remained fugitives overseas.

Chowdhury has been living in the United States since 1996 and applied for asylum. International law enforcement informed the U.S. government it was housing a political assassin in 2009. . .

Chowdhury has lived in Chicago, Seattle, Atlanta and in various California cities, according to knowledgeable Bangladeshi sources who would talk only under the terms of anonymity for fear the former major would violently retaliate against them.

Trump ‘Appropriately’ Snubs John Mccain During Bill Signing Intended to Honor Him

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .In extended remarks during a visit to Fort Drum in upstate New York to sign the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 — this year’s version of an annual bill that sets defense policy — Trump chose not to mention the former prisoner of war and Senate Armed Services Committee chairman who is battling brain cancer. He even omitted McCain’s name when citing the title of the bill.

The two men have long been fierce critics of each other, with McCain calling Trump’s supporters “crazies” in 2015 and Trump retaliating by questioning whether McCain, who was subjected to torture in a Vietnamese prison camp, is really a “war hero” because “he was captured.”

The snub at Fort Drum, home to the combat aviation brigade of the Army’s 10th Mountain Division, did not escape the notice of McCain’s allies.

“For those asking did I expect Trump to be an a—— today. No more than I expected it to be Monday,” Mark Salter, McCain’s longtime aide, wrote on Twitter.

McCain’s condition — dire enough that a recent HBO documentary on him was titled “John McCain: For Whom the Bell Tolls” — has not stopped Trump from deriding the Arizona senator at political rallies. Though Trump does not use his name, he tells crowds that he would have been able to repeal Obamacare if not for a thumbs-down sign from one senator — McCain.

Trump Directly Addresses Omarosa’s Worst Allegation Against Him

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump was accused by his former White House aide and “The Apprentice” contestant Omarosa Manigault of using a horribly racist word, and he directly addressed the claim on Monday. . .

In a pair of tweets from his official social media account, the president denied the claim from Manigault that he had used the “n-word,” and that there was an audio tape of him doing so.

Trump was referring to Manigault’s statements defending him against charges of racism before the 2016 election and after she joined his administration.

The alleged tape figures a central role in Manigault’s book, where she says that she sought to uncover the evidence of racism until she was fired by White House chief of staff John Kelly. She recorded the conversation when she was fired and subsequently released that audio recording.

Trump had attacked Manigault’s credibility earlier on Monday, saying that she begged him for a job at the White House after she had been a contestant at “The Apprentice” without winning three times. “She was vicious, but not smart,” he tweeted.

Newspaper Calls for Coordinated Attack Against Donald Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Boston newspaper wants every newspaper in America to attack President Donald Trump in response to his criticism of the news media.

The Boston Globe on Friday began reaching out to newspapers across the country to publish editorials on Aug. 16 denouncing what it called a “dirty war against the free press,” according to a report in The Boston Globe itself.

“We are not the enemy of the people,” said Marjorie Pritchard, deputy managing editor for the editorial page of The Boston Globe.

As of Saturday, “we have more than 100 publications signed up, and I expect that number to grow in the coming days,” she said, according to CNN.

Trump has said that the media is hurting America.

“The Fake News hates me saying that they are the Enemy of the People only because they know it’s TRUE,” he tweeted recently. “I am providing a great service by explaining this to the American People. They purposely cause great division & distrust. They can also cause War! They are very dangerous & sick!”

Pritchard said media organizations such as the American Society of News Editors are helping make the national effort succeed.

“The response has been overwhelming,” Pritchard said. “We have some big newspapers, but the majority are from smaller markets, all enthusiastic about standing up to Trump’s assault on journalism.”

The Globe is targeting opinion writers, whose work is on the editorial pages of a newspaper, and not news reporters. It wants even newspapers that endorsed and still support Trump to attack him for criticizing the media.

“Our words will differ. But at least we can agree that such attacks are alarming,” the appeal said, acknowledging that newspapers were likely to take different approaches.

Pritchard said The Globe acted after some high-profile criticism of the news media by Trump.

Last weekend, at an Ohio rally where the crowd chanted “CNN sucks,” Trump delivered his critique of the media.

“Oftentimes I’m getting ready to do the fake news with CNN or MSNBC — MSNBC is so corrupt it’s so disgusting,” Trump said, according to The Hill.

“I would say they’re almost, they’re worst,” he said. “They’re really a fake news group of people.”

Those coments followed similar ones at an Aug. 2 rally in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.

“What ever happened to the free press? What ever happened to honest reporting? They don’t report it. They only make up stories,” Trump said then, according to the Associated Press.

Pritchard said the newspapers want Americans to see Trump’s coments as an attack on basic American rights.

“I hope it would educate readers to realize that an attack on the First Amendment is unacceptable,” she said. “We are a free and independent press, it is one of the most sacred principles enshrined in the Constitution.”

Washington Post editor Martin Baron has said it is not hostile to the president.

“The way I view it is, we’re not at war with the administration, we’re at work. We’re doing our jobs,” he said, The Washington Post reported. (For more from the author of “Newspaper Calls for Coordinated Attack Against Donald Trump” please click HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rapper Kanye West made major headlines earlier this year after openly endorsing President Donald Trump. Trump took notice and sent West a signed Make America Great Again Hat.

. . .West explained his decision to publicly support the President and his overall philosophy about free thinking.

“Just as a musician, African-American, guy out in Hollywood, all these different things, you know, everyone around me tried to pick my candidate for me. And then told me every time I said I liked Trump that I couldn’t say it out loud or my career would be over,” West said. “Liberals can’t bully me, news can’t bully me, the hip-hop community, they can’t bully me. Because at that point, if I’m afraid to be me, I’m no longer Ye. That’s what makes Ye.”
