How they "think"-----Top Democrat Keith Ellison Says Trump Brought "White Supremacy Back to White House"

Top Democrat Keith Ellison Says Trump Brought "White Supremacy Back to White House":
Top Democrat Keith Ellison Says Trump Brought “White Supremacy Back to White House”
Ellison made the comments at a DNC meeting on Friday.
Democrats are gathering this weekend in Phoenix, Arizona for a regional forum before the party elects a new chairperson in February.
During his speech on Friday night Ellison said Trump brought “white supremacy back to the White House.”
And this far left anti-Israel politician is the leading candidate to replace scandal-plagued Donna Brazile as party chair in February.

Ellison telling rally at DNC meeting that Trump has brought white supremacy back to WH
It’s obvious the Democrat Party’s plan to gain voters at this stage is to call all of their opponents racists and white supremacists.
That ought to work wonders for recruitment.
Keith Ellison is the top candidate for DNC Chairperson.
The Democrats will vote on a new chair at the end of February.

Congressional Republicans readying ‘bite-size’ bills to replace Obamacare – TheBlaze

Congressional Republicans readying ‘bite-size’ bills to replace Obamacare – TheBlaze:

"In a feat of either extraordinary bravery or ambitious overreach, House Speaker Paul Ryan is planning to eschew accepted congressional practices and, rather than replace Obamacare with one large, unwieldy replacement, will instead present a series of smaller bills attacking the problems of the Affordable Care Act one at a time."


Students In College Bible Class Get Trigger Warning, Permission To Skip Studying Crucifixion Of Jesus Christ

TWCTaxProf Blog:
"National Review, If You Are Too Triggered by Lessons About the Crucifixion, You Cannot Be a Religious Scholar:
Students in a Bible course at the University of Glasgow are being given trigger warnings before being shown images of the crucifixion — and permission to skip those lessons altogether if they are worried they’ll feel too uncomfortable.
Predictably, much of the conversation surrounding this has been focused on the cultural implications of the policy, and how it contributes to creating a generation of weak little snowflakes. ...
But the problems with this policy go far beyond the abstract cultural implications.
It’s also objectively, indisputably wrong on a logical level — because receiving credits for a class signifies that you have learned enough about the subject matter to earn those credits, and no student in an introductory Bible course could meet that qualification without having learned about the crucifixion..."

Invasion of Europe 2017: Prediction! Invasion will grow as there are too many Africans and not enough jobs

Invasion of Europe 2017: Prediction! Invasion will grow as there are too many Africans and not enough jobs « Refugee Resettlement Watch
"Lack of Jobs in Africa Could Spark Massive Migration to Europe
The economies of the developing world cannot keep pace with an increase in population, meaning millions of people from Africa will likely migrate to Europe, a new report has found.
migrant-boatsThe report, from the Geneva-based International Labour Organisation (ILO), states that the economies of developing nations in Arica, Asia, and South America cannot keep pace with the number of young people entering the workforce. 
The result, especially in Africa, will mean that many are ready to migrate and look for jobs elsewhere – and their main target will likely be Europe Die Welt reports.
Don’t get these economic migrants confused with legitimate refugees. 
They are not, but the open borders movement is going to call them all refugees/asylum seekers!
More here.
The only hope for Europe (and it may be too late) is for countries like France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands to elect leaders who are nationalists!

Obama’s legacy: A deeper party divide in America – TheBlaze

Obama’s legacy: A deeper party divide in America – TheBlaze:

"As President Barack Obama prepares to leave office next week, he’s busy crafting the narrative of his legacy, telling CBS “60 Minutes” in a soon-to-air interview that he believes he is the first modern president without a major scandal in his White House tenure.

While others would disagree with that assessment — there’s certainly room to discuss episodes such as the four American deaths in Benghazi and the payoff to Iran for the release of America hostages, for example — it’s hardly surprising that Obama would be seeking some positive defining administrative success now that it appears the GOP will immediately repeal and replace Obamacare."


In Illinois, Substitute Teaching For One Day Reaped Nearly $1 Million in Taxpayer-Funded Pension Money

In Illinois, Substitute Teaching For One Day Reaped Nearly $1 Million in Taxpayer-Funded Pension Money:
"In 2011, the Chicago Tribune exposed a pair of Illinois teacher union lobbyists, Stephen Preckwinkle and David Piccioli, who substitute taught for one day and stood to collect nearly $1 million in state teacher retirement pensions from a severely underfunded system.
The five Illinois pension systems have a $100
billion liability and the teachers fund may run out of money as early as 2029.
...A couple of weeks ago, we spotted Preckwinkle and Piccioli within a long list of 30 state retirees from the Illinois Federation of Teachers (private sector teachers union).
Sure enough, in 2014, Piccioli is receiving $30,564 and Preckwinkle $37,416 pensions (click here for their life expectancy pension payouts of nearly $1 million each).
The experience was a bit overwhelming, even for our seasoned team of forensic investigators..."

This is despicable!

Human Rights Watch's Trump Derangement Syndrome

Human Rights Watch's Trump Derangement Syndrome:
"Human Rights Watch has taken Trump derangement syndrome to new heights with the release of its annual report that lists the United States of America as a human rights abuser on par with China, Egypt, and Syria.
Their reason? 
Donald Trump's rhetoric during the recent presidential campaign...
As The New York Times notes, the designation of the U.S. as a major human rights abuser marks a first for HRW in the 27 years it has released its annual survey.
“The rise of populism poses a dangerous threat to human rights,” Roth said in a video introduction of the report.
“Trump gained power in the United States, various politicians are seeking power in Europe through making appeals to racism, xenophobia, nativism and misogyny,” he continued.
...Though Trump has yet to shape any policies in the U.S., the HRW survey mentions the Republican 19 times, including under a section with the heading “Trump’s Dangerous Rhetoric.”
The group is most disturbed with Trump’s comments regarding immigration and Muslims.
The 19 mentions of Trump is compared to 11 mentions of both Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan, both of whom have cracked down heavily on reporters and dissidents.
Bashar al-Assad, the dictator of Syria who has murdered tens of thousands of his own citizens, receives 15 mentions in the report..."

Waiver That Would Allow Mattis To Serve As Sec. Of Defense Earns Resounding Approval

Waiver That Would Allow Mattis To Serve As Sec. Of Defense Earns Resounding Approval:

"The nomination of Retired Marine Gen. James Mattis to serve as President-elect Donald Trump’s secretary of defense took two significant steps forward Thursday.

First, despite threats of revolt from House Democrats, the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee easily approved a waiver that will allow Mattis to serve in the Cabinet. Because seven years had not passed since Mattis retired from active duty, he required a special waiver from Congress for his nomination to be approved, per a 1947 law. Mattis retired in 2013."


Dead People Doled Out $2.6 Billion Worth of Food Stamps

Dead People Doled Out $2.6 Billion Worth of Food Stamps:
"Dead retailers redeemed more than $2 billion worth of food stamps, according to a new audit.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s inspector general reviewed billions of transactions through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), also known as food stamps.
It found that thousands of stores authorized to accept food stamps were using the Social Security numbers of deceased persons.
An audit released Thursday found instances of potential fraud where the Food and Nutrition Service issued food stamps through stores that claimed to be owned by children or the dead.
“We found that 3,394 authorized SNAP retailers (retailers) used Social Security Numbers (SSN) that matched SSNs of deceased people,” the inspector general said.
“Additionally, 193 retailers listed owners who were not at least 18 years of age.
While FNS did have some controls to edit or verify SNAP retail owner information, these controls were not adequate to ensure owner information accuracy.”
Between October 2013 and June 2015, the inspector general identified 3,394 stores owned by 1,819 people who were using SSNs listed on the Social Security Administration’s Death Master File.
“These 3,394 retailers redeemed about $2.6 billion in SNAP benefits,” the inspector general said.
The 193 businesses that reported child owners redeemed $41 million in food stamps..."

A brief history of nanotechnology

the Foresight Institute » Blog » A brief history of nanotechnology
"...Enthusiasm for near-term commercial applications became conflated with a long-term technology vision and combined to bring forth ambitious new funding in the US and elsewhere. 
The differing visions of what nanotechnology is and can become, and the resulting conflicts over funding and over the public image of nanotechnology, are part of the story of Foresight’s first 30 years “Thirty Years of Nanotechnology and Foresight“. 
An engaging perspective on the history of nanotechnology written by W. Patrick McCray, a professor in the history department at the University of California–Santa Barbara, was published by Slate earlier this year as part of its Futurography series: “Gods of Small Things“.

The field may seem new—but it dates back more than 50 years

… Since the 21st century began, few emerging technologies have been so heavily promoted, funded, and debated as nanotechnology. Defined (currently) by the U.S. government as “the understanding and control of matter at the nanoscale”—a nanometer is one-billionth a meter—nanotechnology as a field and research community has received billions of funding dollars, making it one of the nation’s largest technology investments since the space race.
Yet the idea that manipulation of the material world at the near-atomic scale was possible, even within grasp, possesses a historical arc stretching far back to the height of the Cold War. From the 1950s onward, investments in physics, chemistry, and the relatively new field of materials science provided a research foundation for the eventual emergence of nanotechnology. In fact, architects of a post–Cold War national nano-research program often traced its origins back to a discrete point in time and space. …
The story Prof. McCray recounts begins with Richard Feynman’s 1959 after-dinner talk, which predicted microscopic machines that would be able to build complex materials by precisely placing individual atoms in designed arrangements to achieve desired functions. 
Feynman’s ideas attracted little attention despite important progress in chemistry, surface physics, and other areas until the exploratory engineering work of Foresight’s co-founder Eric Drexler, then a student at MIT, popularized Feynman’s proposal under the banner of “nanotechnology”. 
However, this vision of the future of nanotechnology soon came into conflict with mainstream science’s funding priorities and focus on near-term applications..."

German Court: Burning Down A Synagogue Isn’t Anti-Semitism, It’s Just Anti-Israel

German Court: Burning Down A Synagogue Isn’t Anti-Semitism, It’s Just Anti-Israel | Daily Wire:
"A German regional court has now declared that burning down synagogues isn’t anti-Semitic – it’s just anti-Israel.
As the Jerusalem Post reports, according to the court spokesperson, Johannes Pinnel, the three German Palestinian Arabs who threw Molotov cocktails at a Wuppertal synagogue in July 2014 weren’t doing anything anti-Jewish. 
Rather, they were attempting to create “attention” over the “Gaza conflict” between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas.
The three terrorists, Mohamed E., Ismael A., and Mohammad A., were given suspended sentences.
...In reality, of course, this justifies any attack on any Jew at any time.
It’s the same anti-Semitic rationale pursued by the Iranian government when they sponsor terrorist attacks against random synagogues abroad.
It’s an excuse for genocide: collective responsibility for the actions of a state to which you don’t even belong..."

Bobby Jindal: Trump’s pick for Education Secretary wants everyone to get a great education. Dems hate her for it | Fox News

Bobby Jindal: Trump’s pick for Education Secretary wants everyone to get a great education. Dems hate her for it | Fox News:

"The Democratic Party and the American Left opposes equal education opportunity. Write it down and memorize it.

They oppose equal opportunity in education. They demand that you keep your children in a failing government school and they tell you to wait for their reforms to finally kick-in sometime in the next 100 years. 

These people are illogical and really should not be teaching anyone anything anywhere.

Which brings me back to Betsy Devos. She has fought tirelessly for decades to give disadvantaged kids the opportunity to receive a great education. That is the sum total of why these Luddites on the Left are attacking her. "

FAKE NEWS: WaPo Did Not Tell Whole Story on DC National Guard Chief's Resignation (Video)

FAKE NEWS: WaPo Did Not Tell Whole Story on DC National Guard Chief's Resignation (Video)
"...WaPo ate it up.
The Army general who heads the D.C. National Guard and has an integral part in overseeing the inauguration said Friday that he will be removed from command effective at 12:01 p.m. Jan. 20, just as Donald Trump is sworn in as president.
Maj. Gen. Errol R. Schwartz’s departure will come in the middle of the presidential ceremony — classified as a national special security event — and while thousands of his troops are deployed to help protect the nation’s capital during an inauguration he has spent months helping to plan.
“The timing is extremely unusual,” Schwartz said in an interview Friday morning, confirming a memo announcing his ouster that was obtained by The Washington Post. During the inauguration, Schwartz will command not only members of the D.C. Guard but also 5,000 unarmed troops dispatched from across the country to help. He also will oversee military air support protecting Washington during the inauguration.
“My troops will be on the street,” said Schwartz, who turned 65 in October. “I’ll see them off, but I won’t be able to welcome them back to the armory.” He said he would “never plan to leave a mission in the middle of a battle.”
Now This…
The Trump administration told FOX News of Friday the story is a crock.
Schwartz was offered to stay on his post until after the Inauguration but decided to quit during the ceremony and then he ran to the press to complain.
According to FOX News,
“The Trump Transition team reportedly offered to let him keep his job until the ceremonies were over. Maj. Gen Schwartz refused. It appears he would rather argue his would rather argue his case though in the press.”
WOW!

And there’s more…

The Washington Post completely rewrote their story since it was originally posted without any mention of an update.
