Sarah Palin Is Back And President Trump Couldn’t Be Happier
Sarah Palin Is Back And President Trump Couldn’t Be Happier: Sarah Palin has made an endorsement in the Republican primary election in Nevada’s upcoming Senate election. She will be backing attorney and businessman Danny Tarkanian to replace Senator Dean Hel…
THE RISE OF GOOD MEN
Under President Trump, justice is right-side up again.
We saw this clearly with the president’s statements on Charlottesville, condemning the hate and violence “on many sides,” his calling-out of the alt-left, and the media’s excusing and ignoring of leftist violence. The media still think their illusion of “racism” has power over a man of truth like Donald Trump, so they’re still lying and claiming he did not condemn so-called “white supremacists,” and they’re still covering for hate-filled Antifa and Black Lives Matter. But their time is up, because we have a real man in charge.
We see the return of justice all the more with the president’s pardon of Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona, a good man who’s been under attack by un-American leftist liars from President Obama’s administration to the mainstream media to the ACLU. Those in power the previous eight years (and more) believe in fake things like “racism” and don’t care about the law, nor about what’s right. Thankfully, we don’t have to see a man who’s lived a life of service to the American people destroyed by wicked liberals.
Sheriff Joe tweeted a “thank you” to President Trump “for seeing my conviction for what it is: a political witch hunt by holdovers in the Obama justice department !” Everyone should note that RINO Sen. John McCain, who hates President Trump and hates good, decried the pardon of Sheriff Joe. Evil is being revealed as good is being lifted up.
Speaking of justice, I am truly heartened to see the rise of my friend and hero, Judge Roy Moore, in his race for U.S. Senate for my hometown state of Alabama. Over the years, Judge Moore has faced attack after attack by godless liberals for his stance defending the Ten Commandments monument, his rejection of the unconstitutional so-called “same-sex marriage” decision and so much else. I remember how he destroyed CNN’s Chris Cuomo’s phony arguments attempting to force “same-sex marriage” into Alabama. I met with Judge Moore for an hour, and he had a wealth of knowledge on the law and Constitution, but he explained things so simply that even a simple man like me could understand. Because Roy Moore is a man of character and consistency, the good people of the South love and support him, and so do I.
Compare these solid men: President Trump, Sheriff Joe, Judge Moore and many others who’ve stood up for good, including Sheriff David Clarke – contrast them with the dirty, trashy people who the children of the lie have lifted up: Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters and even John McCain. The latter don’t care about good, or what’s right. They have only hatred in their hearts and false accusations to malign good men and deceive people who lack wisdom and character.
Maxine Waters was honored by the shallow, morally bankrupt BET’s “Black Girls Rock” awards, where they love their “blackness” more than they love God (even though most blacks pretend to be Christians), and they hate real men like President Trump more than God hates sin. When “Auntie Maxine” received her award, she gave an empty promise to “impeach” the president and called herself a “strong black woman.” She’s not going to impeach the president, and she’s not a “strong” person at all – she’s a shameless liberal woman who loves abortion and hates and exploits blind black people. But the blacks cheered, applauded and ate up her lies. It is so unfortunate.
Similarly, former Speaker Pelosi, former Secretary Clinton and former POW John McCain are struggling to remain relevant in these times of renewal for America. The media, who love lies, continue to give these washed-up politicians a platform, as together they grow more deluded. If they cared about their souls and about America, they would repent and forgive those they hate, stop pushing evil, and stop trying to fight the president in his mission of making America great again. They don’t want the country to be great again. They hate good so much that they are willing to destroy themselves and others to stop good from winning.
I am loving these times. As good comes out in the open, so does evil. I don’t mind evil being evil, because that is evil’s job. In this world, you will have trials. But it is so refreshing to see good men return the country to good, as the president is doing, as Joe Arpaio has done, and as I trust Judge Moore will continue to do, if and when he wins his Senate seat.
I truly hope the younger generation watches and learns from these men’s example. I am happy to see young white men and others standing up again, but they must do it in the right way – without anger. Only by not hating your enemy will you see clearly how to defeat evil. As always, I urge you to pray, to forgive your own mothers and fathers who let you down in one way or another, and to aim for perfection as you fight for your souls and for the country.

Let Virginia Prosecute the Charlottesville Terrorism By Andrew C. McCarthy — August 14, 2017
Let Virginia Prosecute the Charlottesville Terrorism
Domestic acts of violent crime are typically the purview of the states, not the feds.
One of the odder sidelines of this weekend’s murderous vehicular attack in Charlottesville, which killed a young woman and injured at least 19 others, has been pointed media questioning of Trump-administration officials about terrorism. Attorney General Jeff Sessions was asked about it on ABC’s Good Morning America on Monday morning. Sunday, in appearances on NBC’s Meet the Press and ABC’s This Week, General H. R. McMaster, the White House national-security adviser, was pressed on the matter.
Let’s be clear: This line of inquiry is political, not legal.As a legal matter, to question whether the attack qualifies as terrorism is akin to asking whether the sky is blue. A 20-year-old neo-Nazi, James Alex Field Jr., plowed a car into a crowd of opposition protesters, killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer. The act easily meets federal law’s definition of domestic terrorism. Codified in Section 2331(5) of the penal code, the concept includes:
activities that (A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are in violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State; (B) appear to be intended (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; . . . and (C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.You probably noticed that I used the word concept in explaining the federal criminal law’s take on domestic terrorism. I did not say crime. Domestic terrorism is not a federal criminal offense. Federal law reserves criminalization mainly for international terrorism — which involves the same kind of violent intimidation, but only when it transcends national borders or occurs outside our country.
Given the plethora of activity regulated and criminalized by federal law, the omission of domestic terrorism seems strange at first blush. But there are sound policy reasons for it.
Terrorism is often bound up with dissent against our country and our government’s policies. When this activity is driven by foreign forces, it often implicates the first
Yet, when protest is internal, when it is engaged in by Americans against the government and other groups of Americans, it often involves constitutionally protected political speech and assembly. Moreover, our regard for the privacy interests of our fellow Americans — even those who have come to hold their own country in contempt — is considerably higher than it is for foreign actors, and that limits the degree of
When it comes to national security, then, we do not want the federal government investigating the constitutionally protected activities of Americans unless there are solid grounds to believe they are serving a foreign power (including a foreign or international terrorist organization). This is not just an airy theoretical position. There is a dark history of federal-government excess in investigations of sedition. Probes involving Communist penetration of our government and violent political radicalism in our streets have infamously resulted in domestic spying against innocent Americans who, however misguided their policy
Obviously, there is a line at which political protest crosses over into crime. The breach occurs when there is violence, or at least incitement to violence. Generally speaking, domestic acts of violent crime are the purview of the states, not the feds. To justify federal jurisdiction, there must be some overarching national interest — i.e., some area of responsibility the Constitution commits to the central government. So, we draw a sensible line here: The state governments are principally responsible for prosecuting violent acts in their territories, but the feds will intervene when the violence involves foreign powers or the use of weapons of mass destruction (which has manifest interstate ramifications).
So, why have a definition of “domestic terrorism” in federal criminal law if there are no such federal crimes? Because the definition, enacted in the Patriot Act following the 9/11 attacks, provides a solid jurisdictional basis for the FBI and other
Still, violent crime remains primarily a state responsibility. Field committed a heinous intentional homicide, a capital offense in Virginia. The attack resulted in vicious assaults on several others, also serious crimes. The Old Dominion, moreover, is among several states that added domestic-terrorism crimes to their penal codes following 9/11. Virginia’s terrorism provision is a potential death-penalty offense.
For prosecutors, the state crimes are the most straightforward to prove. They prescribe more than adequate punishments, and they do not require juries to wrestle with recondite federal jurisdictional elements — e.g., did the violence in question affect interstate commerce? Consequently, while the Justice Department should be offering Virginia all the assistance it can muster for a prosecution of Field (and any potential conspirators), it should content itself with this support role. Let the state prosecutors and police do the heavy lifting.
Here, alas, we run into the persistent problem of media narratives.
The Obama administration was ostentatiously active in controversial domestic-violence incidents. As with encounters between police and
Plainly, if the Trump Justice Department does not file charges in this case, leftists will claim it is not as committed to civil-rights enforcement as they credit the Obama Justice Department with being. That would be sadly ironic. Ms. Heyer, the racist’s murder victim, happens to have been white — a quirk of the fact that revulsion against racism unites Americans across racial lines. It was against the social-justice presumptions of the Obama Justice Department to enforce the civil-rights laws on behalf of white victims.
In any event, remember the repugnant intimations of racism at Attorney General Sessions’s confirmation hearing? Add to that President Trump’s weak initial statement about the Charlottesville violence — blaming “all sides” and failing to condemn by name the white supremacists who played an instigating and homicidal role. On Monday, the president wisely atoned for this error, slamming “the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.” Still, there will be pressure on the Justice Department to elbow Virginia prosecutors to the side, lest the Trump administration be seen as uncaring.
That explains why Sessions and McMaster were peppered with questions about terrorism this weekend. It is perfectly obvious that the automotive assault — a tactic jihadists have used for years — is a terrorist crime. The public does not grasp the state–federal division of responsibility between domestic and international terrorism. So, while legal considerations should lead the Trump Justice Department to defer to Virginia’s law-enforcers, it knows that doing so would feed a political narrative that the administration is reluctant to hold white supremacists to account.
There is an additional political dimension. The Left conflates the so-called alt-right (which is radical, racist, anti-Semitic, anti-American, totalitarian in orientation, and thus not remotely conservative) with the political Right. It would love to add terrorism to that indictment.
Terrorism is the right diagnosis for Field’s murderous act. But it is not the same thing as racism. Condemnable in its own right, racism can fuel terrorism, but it is a different abomination. Democrats and their media partners already smear conservatives with the alt-right’s bigotry. We should not tolerate that libel’s expansion to terrorism.

Lyin' Democrats use illegal immigration to destroy America - Jesse Lee Peterson
Liberal Democrats are at war with President Donald Trump.
They are preparing to sue the Trump administration over the president’s latest attempt to punish “sanctuary cities” that harbor illegal aliens.
Last month, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions warned that cities that do not assist federal immigration agents seeking to deport illegals would no longer receive funding.
Obama crony Rahm Emanuel also announced that Chicago is going to sue the Trump Justice Department over its new sanctuary city rules. Chicago has had more than 400 homicides this year and is on pace to surpass last year’s death toll. Yet, Emanuel is putting the Democratic Party and his selfish political aspirations over the safety of Chicago’s black residents. Shameful!
Democrats want America overrun by hordes of illegal aliens that don’t share our Christian values. They’re enticing them with handouts in exchange for their vote in the future. This is the same way they seduced black Americans. It’s all about power and votes for the Democratic Party.
This was evident on a recent forum I participated in at Politicon. I appeared on an immigration panel titled, “Mr. Trump, Tear Down This Wall.” Rep. Ted Lieu, D-Calif.; Hector Villagra, executive director of the ACLU of Southern California; Julissa Arce, CNBC and Huffington Post contributor; and Vann Newkirk, writer for the Atlantic, joined me on the panel. Former MSNBC host Krystal Ball was the moderator.
The panel was stacked with four highly educated and intellectual liberals. I was the lone conservative. Even the moderator was liberal and pro-illegal immigration.
During our discussion, Hector Villagra of the ACLU and others made the bogus claim that there is a direct connection between the prison industry complex and law enforcement going after illegal aliens. I told the sly Villagra that the ACLU is un-American and all it does is lie!
I asked Villagra if he was troubled that law-abiding black Americans are being adversely affected by the influx of illegal aliens. He refused to answer.
Moderator Krystal Ball allowed the liberal panelists to personally attack me, but when I defended myself, she repeatedly interrupted.
All the liberals on the panel said a border wall is “too expensive” and “ineffective.” I made the point that illegals are receiving more food stamps and handouts than ever before. Therefore, we should stop paying for illegals and put that money toward securing the border. According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, or FAIR, illegal aliens cost U.S. taxpayers $113 billion a year!
Julissa Arce and the moderator agreed with me that we need to know who is coming into the country, but Julissa said building a wall won’t keep us safe because people will still find ways to come in illegally.
Liberals claim a border wall won’t keep out criminal aliens, yet they have no problem putting up walls around their homes to secure their properties. So I asked Julissa and the rest of the panel whether they have walls around their homes. They refused to answer.
Krystal Ball said illegal immigration is good for America, including blacks. The elitism, dishonesty and callousness that these liberals showed for American citizens and the law are shocking. They intentionally blur the lines between legal and illegal immigration. I told them, unlike liberals, I don’t lie. And I made the point that we’re talking about illegal, not legal, immigration.
Democrat Ted Lieu and ACLU’s Hector Villagra said illegals commit fewer crimes than natural-born citizens. I called them out on their lies.
The Heritage Foundation reported that the Government Accountability Office released two shocking reports in 2005 on criminal aliens who are in prison for committing crimes in the U.S. and issued an updated report in 2011. The first report shows that non-citizens commit federal crimes at three times the rate of citizens. The second report was even more disturbing.
Rep. Lieu openly admitted that the goal of Democrats is to get new immigrants registered to vote. I told the audience the reason most immigrants end up voting Democrat is because the party seduces them with taxpayer-funded handouts and Obama phones!
Hector Villagra claimed Obama was the “deporter in chief.” Again, I told him he was wrong, wrong, wrong! And that he was a dishonest man.
The Obama administration did not deport large numbers of illegals from the U.S. interior. It fudged the numbers by counting illegals turned away at or near the border by ICE as deportations – typical liberal deception.
Despite the Democrats’ lies, Trump’s leadership is making America great again. Republicans in Congress recently introduced bills that would put tens of billions of dollars toward completing a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Trump is making gang eradication a priority. He is urging Attorney General Jeff Sessions to get real tough with vicious illegal-alien criminal organizations like MS-13.
Securing the border is a top priority for this president. Republicans must fight with him and follow through on their campaign promise to stop the illegal invasion.
