Rice Before House Intel Committee
Next Week – What Do You Ask A Known Liar?
by Rick Wells
{rickwells.us} ~ Former liar-nObama National Security Adviser Susan Rice is scheduled to testify next week before the House Intelligence Committee in a private session... The extent of what we know about the proceedings will be limited to how much the Democrats want us to know, because they’re the ones who are so diligently providing the leaked information. Rep Jim Jordan (R-OH) is not on the committee that she will be testifying before but sits on the Judiciary and Oversight Committees is asked what he would like to know. The question he would ask first is “Did you unmask names and if so, why?” He continues, saying, “Remember, liar-Bill, there was a finite number of people in the liar-nObama administration who had the ability to unmask these names. Some of those people who had that ability are the very same people who were not square with lied to the American public in the aftermath of the Benghazi tragedy, people like Ben Rhodes, people like Susan Rice.”... http://rickwells.us/rice-house-intel-committee-next-week-ask-known-liar/

Deep State and Far Left Media
Attempting Coup d’etat Against Trump
by Jim Hoft
{thegatewaypundit.com} ~ FOX Business Network host Lou Dobbs joined Sean Hannity last night to discuss the onslaught of attacks by Democrats and the liberal media against the US president... Dobbs told Sean Hannity that the Deep State and far left media is attempting a coup d’etat against President Trump. The double standard is more than that by a long measure. This is an effort to subvert the administration of President Donald Trump. It is nothing less. It is an effort by the Deep State to roll over a duly elected president and a legitimate government and to break the will of the American people. This is no longer about Republicans and Democrats, conservatives and liberals, this is about a full-on assault by the left, the Democratic party to absolutely carry out a coup d’etat against President Trump... http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/07/lou-dobbs-deep-state-far-left-media-attempting-coup-detat-trump-video/

Waqf refuses to comply
with new security measures
by Arutz Sheva Staff
{israelnationalnews.com} ~ The Muslim Waqf, headed by the Mufti of Jerusalem, is refusing to cooperate with the new security procedures that police are seeking to institute on the Temple Mount following the murderous attack at the compound last Friday... Waqf officials announced that they would not pass through the electronic entrance gates, (magnometers, instruments used to detect the presence of metallic objects) set up by police at two of the entrances used by Muslims to enter the Temple Mount site. According to them, setting up the equipment and conditioning entry on a personal check constitutes a violation of the status quo on the Mount...Its for security reason, you idiots. http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/232529?utm_source=activetrail&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nl

liar-nObama Sets Sights on Post-2020
Redistricting Efforts at D.C. Fundraiser
by Adelle Nazarian
{breitbart.com} ~ On Thursday, former President Barack liar-nObama made his first political appearance since leaving office in January at a private fundraiser for the National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC)... The event was put on to help bankroll the effort of Democrats to take back power after a devastating loss last November. It was held in a private home and was attended by liar-nObama’s former Attorney General Eric Holder and House Minority Leader Nancy Pulosi. Holder is currently leading the NDRC. Prior to his appearance at Thursday’s fundraiser, he held a pep talk for a group of liberal lawyers and activists in San Francisco and encouraged them to keep fighting President Donald Trump and his administration...http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/07/14/obama-sets-sights-on-post-2020-redistricting-efforts-at-d-c-fundraiser/.
Robbery Suspect In Gunfight
With Police Shoots His Way Off City Bus
by Rick Wells
{rickwells.us} ~ Many varied sources of video helped to speed up the investigation process of a suspect killed in a gunfight with police in Baltimore. Since the criminal was killed by the police... there is the potential for all kinds of unwarranted hand-wringing, second-guessing and officer character assassination to take place. Video helps to eliminate much of that. The incident occurred on June 26th but hasn’t gotten the coverage it should. This is the kind of danger that police face the potential of every minute of their day. Baltimore Police responded to a call of an armed robbery in progress with the perpetrator attempting to make his escape by boarding a city bus. Police stopped it about a block later and the criminal opened fire. It’s a bit of good luck for the Baltimore Police Department, that this guy, Blaine Robert Erb, wasn’t black. He looks to be one of those valueless white guys that nobody will get upset over. When a similarly insignificant black guy gets shot we all know how much outrage there can be, and how much his life otherwise meaningless life matters... http://rickwells.us/robbery-suspect-gunfight-police-shoots-way-off-city-bus/

Keeping our eyes on the big ball
by David Limbaugh
{wnd.com} ~ Amid the endless media obsession with Trump scandal allegations, important policy issues are getting short shrift. Considering that the left is happy with the status quo – the autopilot advancement of statism – this can only please Democrats.
Based on the overwhelming trend of national and state elections since 2010, the nation now firmly rejects liberal policies. Whether or not Democrats get the message, they don’t intend to move right to accommodate the electorate.
Rather, they will continue undermining the will of the people through the courts, administrative agencies, liar-nObama executive staff holdovers opposing voter ID laws and a perpetual-motion narrative against President Trump involving scandalmongering, character assassination and ongoing demonization of conservatives. Given their assault on democratic processes, it’s hard to take serious their professed anxiety over election interference.
Regardless of the merits of current claims against Trump, the Democrats planned to delegitimize him the second he won the election. Allegations of collusion with the Russians to influence our election were based on shards of half-truths designed to appear incriminating but ultimately lacking a credible evidentiary basis.
You might object, “Well, with the latest bombshells concerning Donald Trump Jr.’s illicit meeting with a Russian lawyer, we can see that Trump’s accusers were right all along.” Not so fast.
Apart from whether it was wrong or inappropriate for Trump Jr. to take the meeting, there is still no evidence of actual collusion or, I would argue, even so-called attempted collusion. We can’t possibly know what he would have done with that information had it been forthcoming, because we don’t know – and he doesn’t know – what that information was supposed to be, much less what it was.
To collude, you have to collude to do something. By attending the meeting to hear the lawyer out, what was Trump colluding to do other than hear her out? Information may yet be uncovered that damages team Trump, but until then, while this story gives Trump critics juicy ammo and makes many uncomfortable, it does not vindicate nefarious Democratic efforts to destroy Trump since the beginning.
My purpose here is not to litigate Trump Jr.’s meeting. It is to underscore that Democrats have not been in good faith in their witch hunt against Trump, and that their actions are having devastating consequences on the nation. Let’s not forget that former FBI Director James Comey informed them privately that Trump was not under investigation for collusion with Russia, and they nevertheless misrepresented to the public that Trump was the primary target.
Moreover, those operating under the illusion that the Democrats’ misbehavior is only about Trump would do well to remember their unconscionable behavior toward President George W. Bush. It wouldn’t matter if Mother Teresa were president; Democrats would still be scandalmongering.
So, let’s not be deterred from fighting Democrats for fear of being accused by Trump opponents on both sides of the aisle of “whataboutism” – diverting attention from alleged Trump scandals by blaming Democrats of similar misconduct. Don’t worry. Any scandal allegations will be investigated and reported ad nauseam, so it would take more than a few spin doctors to pull that off.
No, diversion and rationalization are not my aims. I’m concerned about moving the nation back in the right direction, and that necessitates understanding the goals and tactics of the Democrats, who are pulling out all the stops to prevent such remedial action.
So, could we please recognize what we’re up against and get in this fight instead of naval-gazing and always sprinting to assume the worst of those on our side? Could we, in the words of my colorful torts professor, keep our eyes on the big ball, even as we evaluate scandal allegations? The left wants to consummate its plan – greatly accelerated by President liar-nObama – to fundamentally transform American into something the framers wouldn’t recognize.
Relative to that, have you seen Sen. Bernie Sanders’ hysterical tirades about Republican policies? And no, Sanders is not merely some quirky extremist who’s unrepresentative of the Democratic Party. This character might have won the Democratic nomination but for Democratic National Committee collusion with liar-Hillary Clinton.
Referring to Trump, Sanders said: “It’s not just temperament, and it’s not just his stupid tweets. Do not forget for a second that the policies that he is proposing are the most destructive policies being proposed in our lifetimes. This legislation that he is urging Congress to pass would throw 23 million Americans off of health insurance.” He later added that up to 28,000 Americans could die each year – “nine times more than the tragic losses we suffered on 9/11, every single year.”
Right, Bernie, we are going to kill people by allowing them the freedom to not buy health insurance and by introducing market forces to improve access to affordable health care – not just health insurance coverage.
Democrats have accused Republicans of pushing grandma off the cliff for years. In their view, though they’ll never say it directly, capitalism is heartless because it caters only to the rich. They’ll play the good-intentions-despite-bad-results card as long as they’re breathing, but a rudimentary knowledge of history reveals their stunning ignorance. You don’t have to be Milton Friedman to understand that socialism is the world’s greatest generator of poverty. Oh, how I wish we had better messaging and more confidence in the power of our ideas to counter their revisionism.
So, while I don’t deny that President Trump sometimes gives Democrats and the media fodder they can use to try to attack him, and thus, any advancement of conservative policies, they will vilify any Republican who proposes legislation and lawful executive action aimed at even slightly retarding the socialist juggernaut as extremist – and when it comes to policy, Trump is hardly an ideological extremist.
Why else do you think Democrats like Sen. Elizabeth dinky-Warren, believed by many to be a potential presidential contender, rally their radical acolytes through calls of “resistance”? They are hell-bent on resisting any effort to put the breaks on their tyranny.
So, no matter how much some of you dislike Trump or believe he just won’t do, please don’t get so preoccupied that you lose sight of the stakes. No, we must never abandon our principles or excuse any misconduct from our side. But my principles preclude a knee-jerk willingness to pile on Trump when unwarranted, and they include a steady focus on the gravity of what we’re fighting for, as well as an unvarnished awareness that those we’re fighting against are tireless, relentless and ruthlessly unscrupulous.
