What the Ninth Circuit did today is as amazing as it is illegal. These slimy bastards have essentially ruled that foreign invaders have the same rights, more rights, than American citizens.
Pat Buchanan has some ideas on how Trump could reign in the insanity.
I have another: as these traitors have sided with our enemies during time of conflict, declare them enemy combatants. Then get rid of them.

Yesterday, for some inexplicable reason, I watched about 10 minutes of The Five on Fox News. The legs and plunging necklines I can handle. The babbling, not so much.
The two hotties and the three amigos were chatting about Bill O’s interview with President Trump. Bill called Putin a murderer and asked Trump how he could possibly like the man. Trump’s answer was straight forward: “And, we’re so innocent?” It seemed perfectly reasonable to me as it implied an uncomfortable truth or two. The gang however, token dissenter Juan Williams included, were not amused.
They took turns ranting about how the U.S. was the purest, cleanest, best-smelling nation in history. They rebuked the President: “We don’t elect murderers!” “None of our officials ever worked for the KGB!” Pure outrage. Then they switched to G.H.W. Bush’s coin flip at the Super Bowl. One would have thought it had been Jesus returned for the ceremony. The men unashamedly said they cried or something. The legs crossed. I turned it off.
A complete aside: it was the Super Bowl where the Patriots beat the Falcons after falling behind 28-3. That one…
That we know of, we have no KGB in our government, true. But one ex-president was also the ex head of the CIA, our KGB stand-in. Said ex-president was elected on a promise not to raise taxes. He did. Then he took us to war in the sand for nothing. Then he helped tank the economy. Then he said something about the new world order, threw up on the Prime Minister of Japan, and rode off into the Texas sunset. There he stayed until the NFL asked him to flip a coin Sunday night.
But we’re so innocent.
Fox. Heh, heh, heh.
Those legs were made for irony.

≈ Comments Off on Funding the Status Quo

Billionaire globalist George Soros, his funds and foundation, have garnered recent news for funding immigrant causes, BLM, and the various violent Rent-A-Mobs de jure. It seems he also funds a far more dangerous element:
Soros Fund Management, a former hedge fund that serves now as an investment management firm, was founded by progressive billionaire George Soros in 1969. It has risen to become one of the most profitable hedge funds in the industry. Employees of the firm are heavily involved in backing political candidates giving millions upon millions to groups that were supporting failed 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton for the presidency.
But more importantly, perhaps, than the unsurprising giant lump sums of cash funneled into Democratic Party and Clinton coffers is the revelation thanks to the Center for Responsive Politics that employees of the Soros firm—now run by his son Robert Soros—pumped tens of thousands of dollars into the campaigns of top anti-Trump Republicans over the course of 2016.
In total, executives with the Soros-founded company pushed $36,800 into the coffers of these GOP candidates just this past cycle. That does not include Super PACs or campaign committees, which saw tens of thousands of dollars more. While these numbers for Republicans pale in comparison to the millions upon millions poured into Democratic groups, causes, and candidates, it is significant that Soros executives are making a play inside the GOP. Perhaps even more significant is the type of Republican they aim to prop up: pro-amnesty, pro-open borders on trade, and generally speaking anti-Trump. A pattern emerges when looking at the policies of the Republicans that these Soros Fund Management executives support financially.
It males perfect sense. Manipulators have always backed both (multiple) sides in any event or conflict so as to maintain some control no matter the ultimate outcome. And it makes sense that the same man who funds violent criminals and invaders also pays for even bigger criminals in D.C.
Nonprofit Quarterly.
Just let this serve as a reminder that almost no mainstream politicians are beyond being bought and paid for. Soros wields far more power in any of these circles than you or I. The Big Club, George Carlin called it. It’s real.

Word has it that many recent arrivals in the U.S. are preemptively self-deporting. This comes ahead of President Trump’s full measures to reform immigration and secure America for Americans. It seems that these good folks didn’t really want to live here after all. Canada, it seems, is where the warmer welcome and more generous welfare benefits may be had. Northern neighbors: buyer beware.
During a visit to MacDill AFB in Tampa, the President told assembled troops he was going to heavily “invest” in America’s military. What he means by this remains to be seen. However, it sounds expensive, especially for a nation that already spends more on the military than the rest of the world and also happens to be dead broke.
If this has to do with a modernization, aimed at actual defense of the U.S. from terrorists, then good. If it has to do with the Iran saber-rattling, then … hmmmmmm…
I enjoyed Lady Gaga’s entertainment last night at Super Bowl LI (that’s “51” for the Falcons fans). Heck, I want to take her out!
Someone found something to grumble about. They think she was secretly sending hippy protest messages to the Soros Rent-A-Mobs. I honestly didn’t see it. Too busy watching her. So I looked again. Still just a short blonde beauty with an awesome voice. I’d better check her out check it out again to be sure.
And I have halted the memes for now. I lost my favorite. Deleted it or something. Anyway, the intended audience was too stunned today to notice. And it’s not nice to rub it in. Having said that, I leave you with this:

She’s not supposed to win – not by the globalist powers that be (or were). It’s much like how Trump wasn’t “supposed to” win. It’s like how no NFL team has ever come back from being down 28-3 in a Super Bowl…
On that, and totally unrelated, another meme:
Back to France. Just like the New England Patriots, les enfants de la Patrie aren’t having it either, as it’s “supposed to be”. Le Pen is galvanizing her nation.
France’s far-right party leader Marine Le Pen on Sunday told thousands of flag-waving supporters chanting “This is our country!” that she alone could protect them against Islamic fundamentalism and globalization if elected president in May.
Buoyed by the election of President Donald Trump in the United States and by Britons’ vote to leave the European Union, Le Pen’s anti-immigration, anti-EU National Front (FN) hopes for similar populist momentum in France.

≈ Comments Off on 8 Million Deportations? A Good Start
Tags
What some (in horror) refer to as a “vast overhaul of immigration” is really no more than adhering to and enforcement of the existing law.
When President Trump ordered a vast overhaul of immigration law enforcement during his first week in office, he stripped away most restrictions on who should be deported, opening the door for roundups and detentions on a scale not seen in nearly a decade.
Up to 8 million people in the country illegally could be considered priorities for deportation, according to calculations by the Los Angeles Times. They were based on interviews with experts who studied the order and two internal documents that signal immigration officials are taking an expansive view of Trump’s directive.
Here’s a kicker:
The rest of the 11.1 million people in the country illegally, according to a study by the Pew Research Center, are believed to have entered on a valid visa and stayed past its expiration date.
Is eight million? Or 11 million? A total of 19 million? Could it be 20 or 30 million? No-one really knows. And until last month no-one (officially) really cared.
A better question is: “how the hell did we ever accumulate so many illegals?” And those are the illegals. Many (most?) legal immigrants do not belong in America. Some estimates have the number north of 80 million here who do not belong.
And they never wanted to belong. They want to transform the U.S. into whatever third world dump they came from. Of course, they’ll happily take a welfare check in the interim. Too many in power, for too long, were all too happy to help them.
It’s all over. The wall, the “Muslin ban”, and the deportations are just the beginning. We are going back to pre-1965 Immigration Act demographics whether the hell anyone likes it or not (though most do). Given that these invaders never intended to fit in any way, they shouldn’t be too disappointed. They should book travel arrangements sooner than later though.
Perhaps the objecting judges, politicians, globalists, celebrities, “preachers”, churchians, banksters, fraudsters, and SJWs should follow the exodus.
America can’t be “great again” until it is America again.
Get out!

This has to be one of Vox’s best columns ever. And it correlates today’s invasion of Europe to another from the distant, disastrous past.
Last summer, a number of normally sensible people were shocked when I said that the European governments would be wise to sink the refugee ships that were crossing the Mediterranean. Most of those people now realize that the people of Europe would be much better off if their governments had rejected the ridiculous “it is moral to help poor defenseless refugees” argument and fulfilled their responsibility to defend their national borders.
But my opinion is not based on any heartlessness or cruelty, it is based on knowledge of history. As it happened, I’ve been reading Charles Oman’s The Byzantine Empire, and the following incident caught my attention, presaging as it does the current situation. You will note that last summer was not the first time refugees in peril were permitted to cross a border, and as Oman’s account suggests, it will not be the first time that the people whose governments betrayed them have paid a bitter price for that failure either.
…
It would be just if the Obamas and Merkels of the world met similar fates at the hands of the refugees they saved. Only six years after permitting hundreds of thousands of poor desperate refugees to cross the river and reach the safety of Roman lands, the Emperor Valens and fifty thousand of his best soldiers were dead at their hands. Seventeen years later, Alaric the Goth ruled over the north, and “wandered far and wide, from the Danube to the gates of Constantinople, and from Constantinople to Greece, ransoming or sacking every town in his way till the Goths were gorged with plunder.”
38 years after the Goths crossed the Danube, Alaric the Goth sacked Rome itself. One has to observe that it may not take 38 years this time.
And that, my dear bleeding heart moralists, is why you always sink the damn ships.
That, or wear stab-proof armor to the Louvre.
And he was a “native” European.

The IRS may be coming for your passport.
President Trump’s executive order on travel may be generating big protests, but an IRS missive on travel and passports may not go down too well either. More than a year ago, in H.R.22, Congress gave the IRS a new weapon to collect taxes. Tax code Section 7345 is labeled, “Revocation or Denial of Passport in Case of Certain Tax Delinquencies.” The law isn’t limited to criminal tax cases, or even cases where the IRS thinks you are trying to flee. The idea of the law is to use travel as a way to enforce tax collections. It was proposed and rejected in 2012. But by late 2015, Congress passed it and President Obama signed it.
Now, over a year later, the IRS has finally released new details on its website. If you have seriously delinquent tax debt, IRS can notify the State Department. The State Department generally will not issue or renew a passport after receiving certification from the IRS. The IRS has not yet started certifying tax debt to the State Department. The IRS says certifications will begin in early 2017, and the IRS website will be updated to indicate when this process has been implemented.
This has the potential to affect about 8,000,000 taxpayers at present. And anyone is subject to IRS persecution, even if they owe no taxes nor earn income. This has the potential to prevent many Americans from freely, legally leaving the country. It is a travel ban.
The law will require IRS regulations to implement, perhaps some from State as well. One wonders which existing regs they plan to cut in order to make way for the new ones.
One may also wonders when the crazed hippies and communists will take to the streets in violent protest of this real injustice. My guess would be “never”.

This is a good one: Matt Labash on the slip-sliding culture:
Remember when grandpa used to dispense wise clichés like “Grin and bear it”? Sorry gramps, we don’t do that anymore. We’ve traded out for “grimace and express it”. The traditional hallmarks of “manliness”—bravery, stoicism, physical courage—have been discounted for some time now, and are damn near being criminalized by the likes of Reiner and The Emasculators.
As ever-wise Harvey Mansfield, who literally wrote the book on manliness (titled, appropriately, Manliness) put it: “Today the very word manliness seems quaint and obsolete. We are in the process of making the English language gender neutral, and manliness, the quality of one gender, or rather, of one sex, seems to describe the essence of the enemy we are attacking, the evil we are eradicating.” Sometimes, I wonder if I should be encouraging my own two sons to go full Caitlyn, as owning a penis 20 years from now will likely be considered as criminal as drinking a large Coke or driving your own car.
It’s not enough that they are freaks. That would be tolerable, for the most part, by itself. The problem is that they want us gone. Dead and gone. Look at what passes for protest in D.C., Berkeley, etc. While the left denounces everyone under the sun (you included) as Nazis, they engage in violent Nazi tactics.
This won’t be one-sided much longer.

America, Donald Trump, economy, Empire, Federal Reserve, recession, Ron Paul
Trump is making major changes at warp speed. The markets and the general economy seem to respond favorably. Still, there are forces at work which even a maverick president my find difficult to stop. From Zero Hedge and LRC:
Paul noted that he thinks U.S. policy has created a “failed system” in the country. “All empires end and we’re the empire. It’s going to end and it’s going to be for economic reasons…we’re going to fail because we’re working within a failed system…this is a monetary problem…a spending problem…it’s going to be financial,” Paul emphatically claimed, once again stating the collapse of America is imminent. “We have something arriving worse than 2008, 2009, much worse…It was the fault of the Federal Reserve,” Paul said, adding, the Keynesian economic model contributed greatly to the first bubble burst. Paul said the left will blame Trump for it like the right did to Obama, but he says it’s bigger than the office of the president, and blames the federal reserve and the previous 17 years of governmental spending.
If you think Ron Paul’s comments hold no water, think again. As the Free Thought Project reported last year, even the former chairmen of the Federal Reserve is predicting this crisis.
We are in very early days of a crisis which has got a way to go,” asserted Alan Greenspan to Bloomberg last year. “This is the worst period, I recall since I’ve been in public service. There’s nothing like it, including the crisis — remember October 19th, 1987, when the Dow went down by a record amount 23 percent? That I thought was the bottom of all potential problems. This has a corrosive effect that will not go away. I’d love to find something positive to say…..I don’t know how it’s going to resolve, but there’s going to be a crisis.”
When the man who used to run the very central bank Ron Paul says is responsible for the collapse, also says there’s going to be a collapse – it’s time to pay attention.
Watch the RP video interview. I agree that Trump is doing everything (almost) humanly possible to avert disaster. However, late in the fourth, one Hail Mary (or two or three) may not be enough.
Perhaps, in a worst case scenario, he can ease us down as gently as possible. I still maintain that the best solution to the Imperial end game was to elect Paul in 2008 (not 2012). It’s a little late for that; Trump is who we have and all we have.
The difference between Trump and Obama or Bush is that Trump will not take the unjust blame lying down. And given his ability to keep the press, the opposition, and the GOP barking and clapping like trained seals, this will be interesting, even entertaining – even in the event of calamity.
