Ex-Obama Official Suggests 'Military Coup' Against Trump

Ex-Obama Official Suggests 'Military Coup' Against Trump:

"In a blog post for Foreign Policy magazine, Rosa Brooks, a former Obama administration official, outlined four ways to “get rid” of President Trump, including declaring him mentally unfit for command or carrying out a military coup.
Brooks is a Schwartz senior fellow at the New America Foundation, which is funded by billionaire George Soros’s Open Society Foundations. She served from 2009-2011 as Counselor to the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and served as a senior adviser at Obama’s State Department."




Quebec: The Crisis of the West

Quebec: The Crisis of the West:
  • Quebec, like the entire West, is facing an existential demographic and religious crisis.
  • Quebec's death spiral is explicitly linked with the calls for increased immigration. Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who put an end to the military campaign against the Islamic State, just called on Muslim migrants to come to his country.
  • Resistance to Quebec's dramatic collapse of Christianity does not necessarily require a new embrace of an old Catholicism, but it certainly does need a sane rediscovery of what a Western democracy should be. That includes an appreciation of Western identity and Judeo-Christian values -- everything Trudeau's government and much of Europe apparently refuse to accept.
Welcome to Quebec, with its flavor of an old French province, with its beautiful landscapes, where streets are named after Catholic saints, and where a gunman just murdered six people in a local mosque.

Violence can be the consequence of societal convulsions, as in the 2011 massacre on Norway's island of Utoya, in a country that prided itself of being ultra-secularized, and part of the global "good society".
Quebec, also, like the entire West, is facing an existential demographic and religious crisis.

...The state of Catholicism in Quebec today is indeed desperate.
In 1966, there were 8,800 priests; today there are 2,600, most of whom are elderly; many live in nursing homes.
In 1945, weekly mass was attended by 90% of the Catholic population; today it is 4%. Hundreds of Christian communities have simply disappeared.
An academic report concluded:
"Canadian census data shows that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the country, and that although most of the Muslim population growth is related to Muslim birth rates and migration, since 2001 the Muslim population has also increased as a result of religious conversions by non-Muslim Canadians".
Quebec's demographic decline is also telling.
The birth rate has fallen from an average of four children per couple to just 1.6 -- well below what demographers call the "replacement rate". Quebec was unique compared to developed nations in the intensity and speed with which total fertility rates dropped.

Quebec's death spiral is explicitly linked with the calls for increased immigration
Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who put an end to the military campaign against the Islamic State, just called on Muslim migrants to come to his country..."

Voter Fraud a Myth? That’s Not What New York Investigators Found - WSJ

Voter Fraud a Myth? That’s Not What New York Investigators Found - WSJ:

"The Department of Investigation proved how easy it is to perpetrate such a fraud. More important, it showed that such illegal behavior doesn’t get reported or corrected. When the department published its report, the Board of Elections took no steps to prevent future fraud. Instead, the board complained that the investigators engaged in voter fraud and should be prosecuted. The district attorney refused to charge the investigators for their productive and lawful investigation.

Last year a Democratic New York election official, Alan Schulkin, was forced to resign after he was caught on tape telling the truth about electoral process."

SIERRA CLUB: Abortions are good for the environment

SIERRA CLUB: Abortions are good for the environment - The American MirrorThe American Mirror
Trees and lakes are more valuable than human babies, according to the Sierra Club.
Club Executive Director Michael Brune was grilled by Tucker Carlson on Thursday night over weighing into political issues that are seemingly out of the group’s purview.
“So abortion,” Carlson said. “Last year on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, you all issued a press release saying the Sierra Club stands in solidarity — I think I’m quoting — with Planned Parenthood.
“Now, people feel that way, okay. What does that have to do with the environment? 
Why does legal abortion make the environment better?” he asked.
“Well, we believe in empowering women’s rights,” Brune responded.
“We think that women who have rights and have the ability to make their own reproductive choices will help to produce strong families and will help to protect the environment at the same time.”
When Carlson still couldn’t figure out how the two are connected, Brune responded, “Well it helps to address the number of people we have on this planet.”
Carlson got a horrified look on his face.
Brune continued, “We feel one of the ways we can get to a sustainable population is to empower women to make choices about their own families.”
Carlson concluded that Brune’s position was that “fewer people are better for the environment.”

Americans Should Not Have to Subsidize Campus Lawlessness

Americans Should Not Have to Subsidize Campus Lawlessness:

"In 1964, students at the University of California, Berkeley joined together to fight for their right to free speech.
Last night, a group of over 1,500 protestors showed up on that same campus to shut down a speaker with whom they disagreed, and about 150 of them started a riot.
Clearly, the culture of tolerance on college campuses has changed quite a bit since 1964."

Public Radio’s incomplete story on Aspen’s taxpayer-subsidized housing

Image result for Aspen subsidized housingBeaton: Public Radio’s incomplete story on Aspen’s taxpayer-subsidized housing | AspenTimes.com: "Taxpayer-subsidized Colorado Public Radio likes taxpayer subsidies.
I know from personal experience that they even like Aspen’s taxpayer-subsidized housing program, where residents making as much as $186,000 receive million-dollar houses for dimes on the dollar.
...story was broadcast on Colorado Public Radio last week, is reproduced on its website and was circulated on social media.
The gist of his story is that the taxpayer-subsidized housing program is a success but needs more taxpayer money for more houses for more young people because the existing residents are aging and never move out. (Why would they?)
The article concluded that the program will become a taxpayer-subsidized retirement home unless the taxpayers cough up even more money.
That’s all true.
But the CPR piece failed to mention many other problems that I touched on in my conversation with the reporter and would have detailed in our follow-up conversation.
...The article contends that this is necessary because Aspen workers who don’t live in town spend “hours a day commuting in their cars.” 
In point of fact, however, the commute from Basalt (a very nice town, even though it’s not Aspen) is about 25 minutes each way — which is about the average commute in America.
That drive from Basalt is through the scenic Roaring Fork Valley, not the commute over Interstate 25 in rush hour that Denver commuters routinely endure.
Alternatively, the bus from Basalt runs every 15 minutes.
The bus stations are more like bus mansions.
They’re built of native stone with heated enclosures that cost $250,000 each. (No, that’s not a typo.) 
The buses themselves are equipped with free Wi-Fi.
Residents of the taxpayer-subsidized housing notoriously fail to maintain them. 
That’s because there’s no incentive to do so.
When they sell, after all, they get the same price set by the housing office regardless of whether the house is in perfect condition or falling down.
In fact, the city has determined that the homeowners’ association reserves are only 22 percent of what’s necessary.
The HOAs are now asking the city to make up the difference with additional taxpayer money.
For example, the residents of one project are threatening to sue the city because the taxpayer-subsidized stain on their taxpayer-subsidized decks is fading.
In another instance, a resident is complaining to the City Council that the sound insulation is defective because she hears her neighbor.
The $186,000 income cutoff for the program conveniently includes every city employee, top to bottom.
And indeed, lots of city employees live there.
A few years ago, four out of the five city council members lived there — including the mayor.
Fraud is rampant..."

College pledges to hire professors based on skin color, mandates social-justice workshops

College pledges to hire professors based on skin color, mandates social-justice workshops - The College Fix:
"And a chief diversity officer to oversee it all
Image result for social justice meme
A women’s college is planning to hire new professors based on the color of their skin because of the “demonstrated benefits” of nonwhite faculty.
...After a year of deliberation, the Barnard College Task Force on Diversity and Inclusion released a set of draft recommendations last week with the aim of improving “representation, inclusion, and social justice” in the classroom and on campus.
Beyond hiring a new C-level official to oversee diversity efforts, the recommendations include mandatory social justice workshops for all community members and extra academic support specifically for racial minorities.
The effort is so expensive that Barnard, which is affiliated with Columbia University, will have to launch a new fundraising campaign to pull it off, as the recommendations acknowledge.

Delaware inmates take four prison guards hostage, blame the whole situation on Trump – TheBlaze:

"According to KYW-TV, who obtained a copy of the audio, one of the inmates can be heard blaming the hostage situation on Trump, explaining the men were fearful after his election.

“We’re trying to explain our reasons for doing what we’re doing. Donald Trump, everything that he did, all the things that he’s doing now…We know that the institution’s gonna change for the worse,” the inmate said. He did not name any specific actions from Trump that led the inmates to conclude that."



Martin Armstrong Warns "We Are Getting Generationally Dumber!"

Martin Armstrong Warns "We Are Getting Generationally Dumber!" | Zero Hedge
"Recent studies are discovering that each generation is becoming increasingly stupid.
study from Iceland has highlighted a downward spiral in human intelligence. 
The genetics firm in Reykjavik found that groups of genes that predispose people to spend more years in education became a little rarer in the country from 1910 to 1975. 
The sample size was more than 100,000 Icelanders. 
They found a slight decline over the 65-year period...
"The cumulative effect over time means this is going to have a dramatic effect on the genetic predisposition to educational attainment, and unless something comes along to counteract that, it could have a profound effect on educational attainment in our society,"
There may be another explanation for this trend.
The more affluent a society becomes, several factors unleash.
The birthrate declines sharply, for as people become wealthier, women prefer not to have children. 
The poorest cultures have the greatest number of births because children take care of their parents. 
...The more affluent a society becomes, the lower the birthrate.
The next side effect is intelligence.
...The wealthier a society becomes, the more we are relieved of basic skills. 
The less we do with our hands, the less coordination we develop, and intelligence diminishes which contributes to the fall of empires, nations, and city-states."

'Global epidemic of blindness' on the horizon, experts warn: Hours spent staring at screens 'will rob millions of their sight decades early'
  • High energy light from digital screens is damaging our retinas, a new study says
  • Damage to the retinas - the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye - is the biggest cause of central blindness
  • Experts say it is now 'clearer than ever' that we are facing a new global epidemic
  • But using a filter over screens can prevent further damage, researchers claim
Staring at digital screens for several hours can cause irreversible damage to the retinas, potentially leading to central blindness, a new study claims.
