John Bolton-OPINION | Trump must withdraw from Iran nuclear deal — now | TheHill

OPINION | Trump must withdraw from Iran nuclear deal — now | TheHill:
"For the second time during the Trump administration, the State Department has reportedly decided to certify that Iran is complying with its 2015 nuclear deal...
...Over the past two years, considerable information detailing Tehran’s violations of the deal have become public, including:

• exceeding limits on uranium enrichment and production of heavy water; 
• illicit efforts at international procurement of dual-use nuclear and missile technology; and 
• obstructing international inspection efforts (which were insufficient to begin with).

Since international verification is fatally inadequate, and our own intelligence far from perfect, these violations undoubtedly only scratch the surface of the ayatollahs’ inexhaustible mendaciousness.
...Within the Trump administration, JCPOA supporters contend that rejecting the deal would harm the United States by calling into question our commitment to international agreements generally.
There is ominous talk of America “not living up to its word.”
This is nonsense.
The president’s primary obligation is to keep American citizens safe from foreign threats..."

Media Ignores Virginia Gov. McAuliffe’s Role in Green Car Scandal that Fleeced Taxpayers out of Millions - Judicial Watch

Media Ignores Virginia Gov. McAuliffe’s Role in Green Car Scandal that Fleeced Taxpayers out of Millions - Judicial Watch:

"An electric car company that folded after taking millions of taxpayer dollars was founded by Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe, the chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign and former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair, but the mainstream media is ignoring this pertinent fact. The Mississippi-based company, GreenTech, shut down in January but is back in the spotlight because this week the state’s auditor demanded the firm repay $6.4 million in public funds. "

UK Police Questioned Hundreds of Children as Young as Five Years Old For 'Sexting' | Heat Street

UK Police Questioned Hundreds of Children as Young as Five Years Old For 'Sexting' | Heat Street
"New police data shows British forces are going after children as young as five years old for “sexting” – sending or receiving explicit pictures.
According to data obtained by the BBC, almost 400 children under age 12 in England and Wales were contacted by police in the last three years about sexting on their mobile phones.
Police officers spoke to one five-year-old last year in an attempt to curb the increasing number of kids who use phones to send each other explicit photographs.
The five-year-old is believed to be the youngest child approached by the police in relation to sexting. Other cases involved several seven-year-olds and eight-year-olds."

Articles: The Left is Already Preparing Tomorrow's Fake News

Articles: The Left is Already Preparing Tomorrow's Fake News
"A reader strolling down the street in Chicago spotted a recruiting poster for “Activist Jobs,” a bit of an oxymoron. 
“Activism” by implication is volunteer work undertaken because the goal sought by the acts in question is so important to the “activist.”  
Goal-oriented acts that are compensated are called “work,” not “activism.”  
But in the photograph below, the two different categories of endeavor are conflated:

The confusion is deliberate and speaks to a larger strategy of the Left, also based on deception.
The American Left has relied on its mastery of the media – enthusiastically aided and abetted by the 90% of national political journalists today that are progressives of one stripe or another – for its political power for decades. 
Ever since the 1950s, the left has been deliberately creating events in order to attract media attention that pushes a narrative confirming the justice of their demands.  
It learned that the new medium of television was perfect for creating artificial dramas that would sway support its way.
...However, with the emergence of Fox News and the internet, alternative narratives gained enough prominence that the propaganda machine started failing, losing its hegemony at first, and at an increasing pace, its credibility. 
...When candidate Trump popularized the iconic expression “fake news,” he coined a meme that served to throw off balance not just the ostensible current target CNN, but the entire progressive media establishment. 
Their ability to manufacture outrage has drastically declined along with their credibility. 
As a result, Democrats have more trouble selling fantasy narratives, such as the outlandish claims made that a GOP revision would cause mass suffering on a horrific scale, 
The high bidder on the deal was Maxine Waters, who buffoonishly claimed that 700 billion people will lose their insurance.
The progressive worldview is entirely based on fantasies about human nature. 
From there they go on to create entered systems (communism, socialism, and progressivism) based on the idea of perfecting mankind through the wisdom of the state..."

Trump’s Michigan judicial nominee hits a snag

Trump’s Michigan judicial nominee hits a snag:
Washington — The Senate Judiciary Committee has not taken up the nomination of Michigan Supreme Court Justice Joan Larsen nearly two months after her selection for the federal appellate bench — a development that concerns her supporters.
The panel is waiting for the go-ahead from her home state senators, Democrats Debbie Stabenow of Lansing and Gary Peters of Bloomfield Township.
They are still reviewing Larsen’s nomination, including a Michigan-specific questionnaire that she returned to the senators’ offices last week.
The committee’s custom is not to hold hearings for a judicial nominee until that nominee’s home state senators submit blue slips consenting to their moving forward..."

24 Republicans Vote 'No' On Amendment to Pay for Transgender Surgery for U.S. Soldiers

24 Republicans Vote 'No' On Amendment to Pay for Transgender Surgery for U.S. Soldiers:
"Twenty-four Republicans banded together on Thursday to defeat an amendment which would have ended former President Barack Obama’s 2016 policy of funding “gender-reassignment” surgery for soldiers who want to live as members of the opposite sex.
The amendment to the 2018 National Defense Authorization Act was offered by Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R, Mo.).
It would have prohibited the use of taxpayer dollars to pay for the non-military medical task of converting healthy soldiers into “transgender” soldiers who face lifelong dependence on hormones and surgery.
...Amendment supporters say the Pentagon’s financial bill for accepting transgender claims could reach $3.7 billion over the next ten years."

Analysis: If We Really Want to Get to the Bottom of the Russia Matter, Trump Isn't the Only Story - Guy Benson

Analysis: If We Really Want to Get to the Bottom of the Russia Matter, Trump Isn't the Only Story - Guy Benson:
"Before you start calling me a Trump apologist on Russia, read this post and this one.
I emphatically am not, much to the chagrin of some our our readers.
...Nevertheless, there are other elements to this story -- and the wider controversy -- that ought to be explored, even if Democrats aren't as eager to talk about them.
If we are genuinely concerned about learning all the facts about foreign interference in our elections, we can't exclusively focus on the (ample) parts of the story that reflect poorly on Donald Trump and his associates.
For instance, what were the motivations of the female lawyer who was central to that infamous June meeting?
Why did the Obama administration grant her access to the country, even though her expired visa extension was rejected?  
...what should we make of her known connection to Fusion GPS, a Democratic opposition research firm responsible for commissioning the notorious and dubious anti-Trump dossier primarily compiled by a former British spy?
Here's Erick Erickson:
Prevezon [a Russian company hit by US sanctions despised by Putin] hired Natalia Veselnitskaya, the lawyer who subsequently met with Donald Trump, Jr. Prevezon also hired Rinat Akhmetshin, described by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) as a former Soviet counterintelligence officer who specialized in disinformation and propaganda campaigns. 
Akhmetshin also retained Veselnitskaya as lawyer for a third party group that claims to be a Human Rights group. 
Prevezon and Akhmetshin also worked with a Democrat opposition research group called Fusion GPS...
According to Senator Grassley, who wants Fusion GPS’s executives to testify to Congress, “Fusion GPS was apparently simultaneously working on the unsubstantiated dossier alleging collusion between Trump presidential campaign associates and Russia” while also working with Prevezon to overturn the Magnitsky Act. 
Suddenly it seems more than a coincidence that Prevezon’s lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, has a meeting with Donald Trump, Jr. at the time Fusion GPS is putting together a dossier claiming the Trump campaign had been meeting with Russians..."

The vote fraud that Democrats refuse to see | New York Post:

"This fuzzy math sums up Democrats’ orthodoxy on vote fraud: As the bulletproof evidence of fraud adds up, they still claim, “There’s nothing to see here.” Not even these hard numbers, based on verified vote-fraud cases, move their acceptance of this reality into the realm of positive integers.

This pathological denial is even more intense, now that President Trump has taken vote fraud seriously enough to appoint a bipartisan panel to get to the bottom of it."

Media Ignores Virginia Gov. McAuliffe’s Role in Green Car Scandal that Fleeced Taxpayers out of Millions - Judicial Watch:
"An electric car company that folded after taking millions of taxpayer dollars was founded by Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe, the chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign and former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair, but the mainstream media is ignoring this pertinent fact.
The Mississippi-based company, GreenTech, shut down in January but is back in the spotlight because this week the state’s auditor demanded the firm repay $6.4 million in public funds.
Only a small Richmond, Virginia newspaper prominently reported McAuliffe’s ties to the scandal, stating in the headline that “Mississippi auditor demands $6.4M repayment from McAuliffe’s former electric car company.”
Most mainstream news outlets ignored the story altogether and a few kept McAuliffe’s name out the minimal coverage. 
Washington D.C.’s mainstream newspaper went with a lengthy wire service story that matter-of-factly mentions McAuliffe in the very last sentence.

Social Security on track for 'large, abrupt' cuts in 17 years unless Congress acts

Social Security on track for 'large, abrupt' cuts in 17 years unless Congress acts: 
"A root cause for the financial woes for Medicare and Social Security is the aging baby boomer population, and the trustees estimate the cost jumps will be higher than any GDP growth that could potentially offset things. 
Meanwhile, lawmakers have not made progress addressing the difference between these two numbers by raising more money, raising the retirement age or dialing back payments.
“The gap is getting bigger, and politicians have their heads in the sand,” said Marc Goldwein of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.
Politically, the available options are incredibly explosive. 
Raising taxes is unpopular, and restricting payments to seniors is also unpopular. 
This leaves both Democrats and Republicans at an impasse."
