Blog: DNC leaders flee Nevada State Dem Convention, call in sheriff’s deputies and hotel security as dispute over delegates escalates into violence

Blog: DNC leaders flee Nevada State Dem Convention, call in sheriff’s deputies and hotel security as dispute over delegates escalates into violence:

"Bitterness and violence erupted yesterday at the Democrats’ Nevada State Convention in Las Vegas, as 64 Sanders delegates were disqualified, allowing Clinton to take 7 of the 12 delegates up for grabs.  Party officials there ignored a motion from the floor and rammed through a vote according to the wishes of the Clinton campaign.  It’s almost as if the Hillary faction genuinely fears for the nomination it supposedly has sewn up."

Canada: Muslim Imam admits refugee resettlement is caliphate-building!

Canada: Muslim Imam admits refugee resettlement is caliphate-building! « Refugee Resettlement Watch
Syrian refugees are an important part of the plan!
What a find by Robert Spencer at Jihad Watch (hat tip: Chris):
Mazin-AbdulAdhim-Photo-Facebook
You can learn more shocking information about Imam Mazin Abdul-Adhim’s caliphate ideas (sounds like he would like to be the Caliph himself!) here:  http://en.cijnews.com/?p=30769
This Toronto Sun story dates from January, and the video from November; we don’t usually post archival material, but this is important enough to make an exception. Mazin Abdul-Adhim says: “The problem is that we don’t understand our own system — the Khilafa (caliphate). And therefore, how do we support the people of Syria? We must send money and help the refugees that are coming here in every way that we can.” The Toronto Sun reports: “Helping Syrian refugees coming to Canada and building an Islamic caliphate are part of the same cause, according to a pro-Shariah speaker at an Islamic conference in Hamilton.”
How can they possibly be part of the same cause? How does helping the refugees who are coming to Canada aid the cause of the caliphate? The obvious answer is that they’re coming as emigrants in the way of Allah, to whom Allah promises a reward for Islamizing a new land (see, for example, Qur’an 4:100). Abdul-Adhim, speaking in Hamilton, Ontario, says: “We’ve been sitting and not really doing very much for the application of Islam in society … We’re required to call for something — the full implementation of Islam — we’re not allowed to call for anything else or compromise in any other way.” The refugee increases Muslims’ political and societal clout and strengthens these calls for “the full implementation of Islam.”

Go here to see our archive on Syrian refugees going to Canada thanks to the boy (Trudeau) and his silly campaign pledge. He is playing right into their hands and you can bet that behind closed doors Abdul-Adhim is having a good laugh!

The Clinton sleaze never ends

The Clinton sleaze never ends | New York Post:
"In most cases, news that a major presidential candidate’s family charity doled out millions to a for-profit company controlled by the candidate’s longtime friends would be raising lots of eyebrows.
But this is Bill and Hillary we’re talking about.
So it’s just the latest in a long list of disclosures about the slush fund that operates publicly as the Clinton Foundation.
The foundation is deeply intertwined with the massive wealth they’ve accumulated in the past 15 years — even as its donors have themselves reaped enormous benefits.
The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that the foundation in 2010 committed $2 billion to Energy Pioneer Solutions, despite IRS rules that say a charity is not “supposed to act in anyone’s private interests.”
The ex-president even personally arranged a US Energy Department grant to the company.
Among the firm’s owners are several longtime Clinton friends — including a wealthy blond divorcée from Chappaqua whose relationship with Bill has long been the subject of speculation.
The Journal reports that the foundation even removed the fiscal link from its Web site to avoid calling attention to Bill’s “friendship.”
So we’re back to that again.
Smirking aside, though, the Clinton Foundation has been embroiled in one financial scandal after another.
Last fall, it had to amend four years of tax filings to come clean about $20 million in foreign donations it received while Hillary served as secretary of state.
Of course, the Clintons and dubious dealings go shamelessly hand in hand.
Always have, always will.
Which is just one more reason to keep Hillary Clinton out of the White House."

Benghazi Panel and State Department Spar Over Documents - WSJ

Benghazi Panel and State Department Spar Over Documents - WSJ:

"WASHINGTON—The House Benghazi Committee and the State Department are at an impasse over a number of documents the panel is seeking in its investigation into the 2012 terrorist attack that killed four Americans in Libya.

Citing “institutional interests” and “confidentiality,” the State Department has on four occasions chosen to withhold some documents from committee investigators, according to letters from the department to Congress reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.

The documents in question were subpoenaed last year by the Republican-led committee as part of its investigation into the 2012 terrorist attack on a U.S. diplomatic facility that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens."

"Blue-Eyed Soul" Singer Daryl Hall To Critics of Cultural Appropriation: "STFU"

"Blue-Eyed Soul" Singer Daryl Hall To Critics of Cultural Appropriation: "STFU" - Hit & Run : Reason.com:
In a new interview, Salon asked Daryl Hall how he, the great "blue-eyed soul" master, would respond to charges of "cultural appopriation" in terms of his music. The answer is...interesting (Salon questions in bold):
One of the current debates is over “cultural appropriation” – The idea that white people should not appropriate the culture of ethnic and racial minorities. I know that you don’t like the term “blue eyed soul.” Have you followed this conversation? 
Are you trying to say that I don’t own the style of music that I grew up with and sing? I grew up with this music. It is not about being black or white. That is the most naïve attitude I’ve ever heard in my life. That is so far in the past, I hope, for everyone’s sake. It isn’t even an issue to discuss. The music that you listened to when you grew up is your music. It has nothing to do with “cultural appropriation.” 
I agree with you entirely, because… 
I’m glad that you do, because anyone who says that should shut the fuck up. 
Well, this entire critique is coming back…
I’m sorry to hear it. Who is making these critiques? Who do they write for? What are their credentials to give an opinion like that? Who are they? 
Much of it is academic. 
Well, then they should go back to school. Academia? Now, there’s a hotbed of idiocy. 
Anyone who knows about music, about culture in general, understands that everything is much more natural. Everything is a mixture. 
We live in America. That’s our entire culture. Our culture is a blend. It isn’t split up into groups. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool – worse than a fool – a dangerous fool. Whole thing here.

Maduro threatens to seize idle Venezuela plants, jail owners

Maduro threatens to seize idle Venezuela plants, jail owners:
"CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Nicolas Maduro threatened Saturday to take over idle factories and jail their owners following a decree granting him expanded powers to act in the face of a deep economic crisis.
...Speaking to supporters in the capital, Caracas, the president ordered "all actions to recover the production apparatus, which is being paralyzed by the bourgeoisie."
He also said that business people who "sabotage the country" by halting production at their plants risk being "put in handcuffs."
Last month the country's largest food and beverage distributor, Empresas Polar, shut down its last operating beer plant. 
It says it has been unable to access hard currency to buy raw materials..."

The NSA’s stunning 9/11 failure: How big-money contractors made us more vulnerable to attack

The NSA’s stunning 9/11 failure: How big-money contractors made us more vulnerable to attack - Salon.com:
"Bill Binney developed a system that might have prevented 9/11.
But it was canceled in the weeks before
...A top NSA mathematician, Binney had rolled out a sophisticated metadata analysis system called ThinThread, only to have it canceled less than a month before 9/11.
Top executives at the agency had decided a clunky program called Trailblazer, contracted out to the intelligence contractor giant SAIC, would be NSA’s future, not the cheaper, more effective and privacy-protective ThinThread.
...“While I was in there trying to look at the material on my computer, the president of the contracting group that I had working on ThinThread came over to me and said that he’d just been in a contractor meeting” with a former top SAIC official who moved back to NSA, supporting Trailblazer.
The contractors, it turns out, were warned not to embarrass companies like SAIC, which (the implication is) had just failed to warn about the biggest attack on the United States since Pearl Harbor.
“Do not embarrass large companies,” the former SAIC manager, according to Binney, said to the other contractor.
“You do your part, you’ll get your share, there’s plenty for everybody.”
Stay quiet about the failures that led to 9/11, and you’ll be financially rewarded..."

Clinton Foundation is a “charity fraud” that allows foreign interests to legally bribe Hillary Clinton

Clinton Foundation is a “charity fraud” that allows foreign interests to legally bribe Hillary Clinton:
"...Ortel’s reports note that contributor disclosures from the Clinton Foundation don’t match with individual donors’ records, the WFB noted, while he further argued that the foundation is out of compliance with some state laws pertaining to fundraising registration, auditing rules and disclosure requirements.
In recent days Ortel began releasing his findings in the first of a planned 40 reports on his website. Of the foundation, Ortel alleges, “this is a charity fraud.”
“Starting almost 20 years ago in 1997, the Clinton Foundation spread its activities from Little Rock, Arkansas, to all U.S. states and to numerous foreign countries without taking legally required steps to function and solicit as a duly constituted public charity,” wrote Ortel, in a letter posted on his website.
...“The agents are investigating the possible intersection of Clinton Foundation donations, the dispensation of State Department contracts and whether regular processes were followed,” one source said.
In other words, besides examining whether Clinton violated laws governing the handling of classified materials, FBI investigators are analyzing whether she used her office as the top U.S. diplomat as a fundraising vehicle for her and her family’s foundation..."

U.S. debt dump deepens in 2016

U.S. debt dump deepens in 2016 - May. 16, 2016:
"Central banks are dumping America's debt at a record pace.
China, Russia and Brazil sold off U.S. Treasury bonds as they tried to soften the blow of the global economic slowdown.
They each sold off at least $1 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds in March.
In all, central banks sold a net $17 billion.
us debt dumpSales had hit a record $57 billion in January.
So far this year, the global bank debt dump has reached $123 billion.
It's the fastest pace for a U.S. debt selloff by global central banks since at least 1978, according to Treasury Department data published Monday afternoon.
Treasuries are considered one of the safest assets in the world, but some experts say a sense of panic about the global economy drove the selloff.
"It's more of global fear than anything," says Ihab Salib, head of international fixed income at Federated Investors.
"There's still this fear of 'everything is going to fall apart.'"

Socialism Is Dying Everywhere from Europe to South America - Except in the US
In Socialist Venezuela they’re now eating pigeons, cats and street dogs for sustenance.

The food lines start at 5 AM in Venezuela.
So leave it to American leftists to push this failed, evil doctrine in the United States.
Investor’s Business Daily reported:
Socialism: Around the world, nations that have been foolish enough to adopt socialist policies either collapsed or are well on their way to doing so. Why, then, are so many in the U.S. enthralled with the idea?
A quick look at the world’s countries in direst economic shape reveals that many, if not most, have one thing in common: They rely on top-down socialist control, rather than free markets, to run their economies. The former, history amply shows, are doomed to fail. There are no long-term socialist success stories. None.

Mystery train: Climate activists in Albany fight environmental racism by blocking unseen locomotive

Mystery train: Climate activists in Albany fight environmental racism by blocking unseen locomotive – twitchy.com:
At the first Democratic presidential debate, CNN’s Anderson Cooper asked the candidates to name the greatest national security threat to the United States. Bernie Sanders’ answer was climate change, and if you’re willing to investigate his website, you’ll find it addressed everywhere, including under “Racial Justice,” where he decries “environmental violence being inflicted on people of color.”
Sanders certainly isn’t the only progressive to argue that racism and climate change are intertwined. 
You might not have known that climate activists are currently observing Break Free, a “two-week global wave of escalated action to keep coal, oil and gas in the ground.”
On Saturday, protesters in Albany, N.Y., united to stop the bomb train, “the presence of which is an act of environmental racism, class prejudice, and an illegal breach of the public trust.” 
What’s a “bomb train”? 
It’s a train carrying explosive crude oil, often through residential areas.

What happens when a Muslim girl is expected to shower with a male who thinks he is a girl?

Comment worth noting: What happens when a Muslim girl is expected to shower with a male who thinks he is a girl? « Refugee Resettlement Watch:
From domstudent11:
Here’s what baffles me: at the same time that Obama is suing North Carolina for it’s “bathroom” law and trying to bully schools into mingling boys and girls in bathrooms and locker rooms, he is “importing” thousands of Muslims who would find it permissible to attack a non-relative male seen with any of their women.
What does he think will happen when Muslim girls are forced to shower with males who “think” they are female?
restroom signWhat does he think will happen when a Muslim husband sees a man (who “feels” like a woman) following his wife into a public restroom?
The only solution I can see is that public facilities and schools will be expected to provide an additional bathroom/locker room for Muslim girls only. Muslim boys would be free, of course, to share the facilities with infidel girls (if they are feeling like girls on any given day). Fair isn’t it?  Other suggestions?
This post is archived in our ‘Comments worth noting’ category, here.
Afterthought: Where is CAIR on Obama’s bathroom policy?

Persian Gulf Sheikhs Gave Bill & Hillary $100 Million | Dinesh D'Souza

Persian Gulf Sheikhs Gave Bill & Hillary $100 Million | Dinesh D'Souza:

"A Daily Caller News Foundation investigation reveals that Bill and Hillary Clinton received at least $100 million from autocratic Persian Gulf states and their leaders, potentially undermining Democratic presidential candidate Hillary’s claim she can carry out independent Middle East policies.

As a presidential candidate, the amount of foreign cash the Clintons have amassed from the Persian Gulf states is “simply unprecedented,” says national security analyst Patrick Poole.

“These regimes are buying access."




Advice from our Islamic "friends"-----Mirror of the Middle East | Saudi Arabia releases video on National TV teaching husbands how to beat their wives

The Watchdog - Mirror of the Middle East | Saudi Arabia releases video on National TV teaching husbands how to beat their wives:
The national television of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has aired a video, in which a self-styled Islamic family doctor is seen teaching men in the country how to ‘properly’ beat their wives.
 The video is believed to have been aired in the country in early February, 2016.
The Kingdom’s government is said to have approved the video, and that is why it was given airtime on national television.
After airing the video in Saudi Arabia, the Saudi government released the controversial video in the United States via the Washington DC-based Middle East Media Research Institute, in April 2016. Women activists group describe the video as nothing less than infuriating.
 The content of the video features the doctor who is said to specialize in therapy; Khaled Al-Saqaby teaching men how to ‘properly’ beat their wives if their [wives] disobey them.

Seattle University Students Talk Gender

Seattle University Students Talk Gender | The Daily Caller
"A new video shows Seattle University students struggling to say how men and women are different, if they’re even different at all.
The Family Policy Institute of Washington released a video this week where it interviewed  students at Seattle University about gender identity and transgender bathrooms.
The students soon struggle to explain how gender is actually fluid … kinda.
“I don’t think there is really any one way to distinguish between a man and a woman, and I don’t think it’s necessary,” one student says.
In the video, a female student is asked if there is a difference between men and women.
She answers, “Umm, no? yes? I mean …”
A different students says, “In general, yes, but I don’t know why I think that.”
“Umm … possibly?” another students answers.
President Barack Obama issued a sweeping demand Friday saying all public schools must allow transgender students to use the bathroom of their choice.
Meanwhile, North Carolina and Mississippi are embroiled in lawsuits over their respective LGBT laws.
In the state of Washington, activists are trying to get signatures on a petition to put the transgender bathroom issue on the ballot in November.
In the video, one student answers the question of whether people should even have the label “male” and “female” at all.
“I don’t think so,” she says. “I think that its, again, a social construct of this binary that we are given at birth.”
WATCH:

The same group released a different video in April where college students have trouble saying how a white man is not an Asian woman."
