Palestinians:
Fake News and "Alternative Facts"

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ One after another, young Palestinians continue to carry out terrorist attacks against Jews. Why? We might start at the beginning... the campaign of incitement, indoctrination and lies that Palestinian media outlets wage against Israel. This campaign has poisoned the hearts and minds of millions of Arabs and Muslims. It ought to be no surprise, then, when the poisoned Palestinian youths grab a weapon and set out to do the death-work they are taught to cherish. The anti-Israel incitement can even be quite subtle. Those injecting the venom do not always issue a direct call for Palestinians to go out and kill Jews. It is enough, for example, to tell Palestinians that Jews are "defiling with their filthy feet" Islamic holy sites, to drive a Palestinian to go out and stab a Jew. Or when a Palestinian leaders repeatedly accuse Israel of seeking to "Judaize" Jerusalem and change its "Arab and Islamic character." This is like urging Palestinians to "defend" their city against Israel's "evil conspiracies."...This has been going on for over 2000 years.  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/9962/palestinians-fake-news

Elijah Cummings Brags About The Lies...

{rickwells.us} ~ Rep Elijah Cummings (D-MD) came out of a meeting with President Trump beaming about two points that he claims he was supposedly able to convince President Trump to change his positions or delivery... Cummings describes a portion of their conversation in which he said, “Mr. President, maybe no one has said this to you so I’m going to tell you today, that it seems that when you talk about the African-American community, you seem to want to judge our community be our weakest link.” That’s the same weakest link they are always harping on for special privileges and programs themselves, so it’s a natural impression he might get. So just to be clear, Representatives, things are great and the special programs can be done away with, that money spent on the military or building the border fence. Cummings continued, “I said there are vibrant and many, many vibrant African-American communities throughout this country, people are doing extremely well, and I said I’ve lived in the same house for thirty-five years, in the inner, inner city of Baltimore. I don’t feel threatened, I feel very good about it.”...Cummings is a liar and should be removed from Congress.  http://rickwells.us/elijah-cummings-brags-lies-convinced-president-trump-believe/

{wnd.com} ~ The people of Rutland, Vermont, have gained a measure of revenge against former President liar-nObama’s forced influx of Syrian refugees, voting out the five-term mayor who helped negotiate the controversial resettlements with a federal contractor... Rutland is Vermont’s third-largest city but still very small, with a population of 16,500. The candidacy of Mayor Christopher Louras went down in flames in Tuesday’s election as he was defeated by the refugee program’s most ardent opponent on the board of aldermen. David Allaire won with 52 percent of the vote to 34 percent for Louras. “That’s not just a win, that’s a drubbing,” said Don Chioffi, an activist who supported the upstart candidate Allaire...  http://www.wnd.com/2017/03/u-s-mayor-booted-from-office-over-support-for-obamas-refugees/

“Russia” Hack A CIA Op Targeting liar-Clinton,
Rampant liar-nObama Spying On Citizens

{rickwells.us} ~ Former senior official and systems developer with the NSA, William Binney and Lt Col Tony Shaffer join Sean Hannity for a discussion of the WikiLeaks Vault7 CIA document dump and the implications it has on some of the many related stories it impacts... Hannity begins with reports of the ability of the CIA to mimic Russian hacking. He notes that the implication in the report is that the CIA would deliberately mimic hacking protocols of Russia to obfuscate their own works. Do you believe that’s true?” Binney replies, without hesitation, “Yeah, sure, I think that that’s true as well as I think that a lot of the software they’ve gotten to do the penetrations came from NSA, GCHQ” and other cooperating agencies and countries.” Col Shaffer refers to the digital conversion of many various televisions and phones into surveillance equipment in his comments as if it’s a known fact, supporting the claims of WikiLeaks. He also throws in the issue that the “bad guys,” however that is defined these days, have the capabilities as well, so we’re not only vulnerable to rogue US intelligence agency employees. He notes the potential for abuse and the temptation to use these technological capabilities improperly must be controlled. The control that was not properly exercised when it was used to take down General Flynn...  http://rickwells.us/experts-russia-hack-cia-op-targeting-clinton-rampant-obama-spying-citizens/

liar-nObama's 'Watergate': Ex-prez
caught in 'biggest scandal in U.S. history'?

{wnd.com} ~ The script has flipped big time. Thanks to the media’s investigation into the Trump campaign, speculation is growing that it is the liar-nObama administration that could end up investigated for accusations one of its targets called “worse than Watergate.”... Democrats are suddenly worried their “Russia hacked the election” narrative may boomerang into a catastrophe of their own making. Perhaps the first sign came Saturday when, as WND reported, former liar nObama speechwriter Jon Favreau responded cautiously to President Trump’s tweeted accusation that the liar-nObama administration had spied on his campaign and wiretapped him...  http://www.wnd.com/2017/03/obamas-watergate-ex-prez-caught-in-biggest-scandal-in-u-s-history/

How about 'A day
without American tech workers'?
by Michelle Malkin
WJJ4c41L8m8L66s8eRUSKCkUc7MHBGrQEG32mW9m9C4q5KMvXNtnuX5sl4OyRJH9ckC_VTWP-fV1bqG0pzMEJbdCgOfhdVJ9ng5psmpkrw0jDJj6ajIx6ER2QIAyH8g0PYWDXGwzk0L19RHxpRhcSlo=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=
{wnd.com} ~ Last month, there was a national “Day Without a Latino.” This week, the demonstration du jour shutting down schools and shops is a “Day Without a Woman.” Here’s my question for all the virtue-signaling protesters who pay lip service to better jobs and wages:

Where’s your awareness-raising event for untold thousands of our country’s high-skilled men and women victimized by H-1B visa havoc? Thanks to cheap labor-hungry big businesses and money-grubbing politicians in both parties, every day has become a “Day Without American Tech Workers.”

Our own best and brightest are vanishing in plain sight. It has been going on for decades – and it’s all legal. Several court challenges to the corporate abuse of the program have failed.

So last week, the same workplace nightmare that befell American tech employees at Disney, New York Life, Southern California Edison and countless other U.S. companies struck the University of California, San Francisco.

That’s right: H-1B hell has engulfed a taxpayer-subsidized institution smack dab in the middle of the West Coast’s liberal paradise. Forty-nine information technology workers at the UC system’s health care and research nerve center officially got the boot last week.

I interviewed a group of those workers last fall at a protest organized by American workers’ advocate and lawyer Sara Blackwell after they got wind of the impending pink slips. Like the Disney workers and thousands of others before them, UCSF’s loyal employees were coerced to dig their own graves: no severance packages unless and until they trained their inexperienced, cheap foreign replacements from India-based HCL Technologies Ltd. by Feb. 28.

Raymond Dy, a UCSF systems administrator, called the severance arrangement a “a big slap in the face.” Married with two young kids, and the family’s sole breadwinner, he felt he had no choice but to comply.

Assisting the offshore outsourcing of his own job was, Dy put it, “insulting.”

It’s also a privacy and security threat. Kurt Ho, a 57-year-old systems administrator and lifelong Democrat who voted for Donald Trump, recounted his dealings with “very young” H-1B foreign workers who had trouble comprehending basic instructions on how to operate a premiere university’s “mission critical systems.” Dedicated to his job and country, Ho voiced concern about giving away the keys to Americans’ health data to unsupervised foreign visa holders and their counterparts overseas.

“This troubles me a lot when I train them. We have to comply with the HIPAA (federal health privacy regulations). As foreigners, they don’t have those requirements.”

Oh, and you know that precious, left-wing San Francisco value of “diversity”? It got thrown out the window at UCSF thanks to the H-1B visa replacement racket. Diversity doesn’t mean jack if a bleeding heart liberal, Trump-bashing university can avoid paying high-skilled American workers’ pensions and benefits.

Audrey Hatten-Milholin, a 53-year-old senior systems architect at UCSF who is black, pierced the university progressives’ hypocrisy. “After the election” last November, she told me, the school sent out emails to employees “reassuring people that the university would remain diverse” and committed to “inclusion” as an anti-Trump statement.

Yet, Hatten-Milholin who served 17 years at UCSF and many of her female colleagues lost their jobs despite “excellent performance reviews” as part of the school system’s short-sighted attempt to “cut costs.” She appreciated the post-election political gesture of supporting diversity, “but on the other hand, it was like, but what are you doing to us? There are not that many women in IT and they’re getting rid of them, the few that are there. Half of them are going to be gone.”

She recounted walking into an office suite to train the HCL foreigners to absorb her knowledge and eliminate her job, “and it seemed like everyone at their desk had a young male Indian worker there. I didn’t see any women.”

President Trump vowed to stop the sabotage of American tech workers and has already put a halt to “fast-tracking” of the visa that an Indian commerce official once dubbed “the outsourcing visa.” But you know the high-dollar H-1B lobbies both here and abroad aren’t going to down without a fight.

If only Bay Area liberals and Beltway Democrats weren’t so acutely addled by Trump Derangement Syndrome, they might actually do something to help the American women and workers they pretend to champion – instead of enabling their sellout.
