liar-Hillary's Second Amendment Technicality
Nuance is seemingly lost on the Leftmedia — at least that's what they act like when challenged by statements that cut to the root of a leftist cause. Case in point is Donald Trump's recent statement, "liar-Hillary wants to abolish ... essentially abolish the Second Amendment. By the way, if she gets to pick her judges, [there's] nothing you can do, folks." The media went into attack mode, calling Trump's statements false by pointing to the fact that liar-Hillary Clinton has never publicly said that she wants to abolish the Second Amendment. Technically, that's true. But it's also abundantly clear that liar-Hillary is no friend to our sacred right to keep and bear arms.
According to her policy adviser Maya Harris, "liar-Clinton believes [the 2008 Supreme Court ruling in] Heller was wrongly decided in that cities and states should have the power to craft common sense laws to keep their residents safe." liar-Clinton has deliberately misinterpreted the Heller ruling, which clarified that the Second Amendment protects the right of individuals to keep and bear arms; a right which city and state governments are not free to take away. Heller did not invent a right, as did leftists' favorite abortion and same-sex marriage decisions. Recall just last year at a town hall meeting in Keene, New Hampshire, liar-Hillary opined that she'd be willing to consider gun control methods similar to those used in Australia, which banned certain guns and initiated a government mandated gun buy-back program. What kind of Second Amendment support is that?
liar-Hillary's views on the right of individuals to own firearms would make the most ardent anti-gun nut proud. She has said that arming people is not an appropriate response to terrorism. She supports reversing laws that protect gun manufactures — "let them be sued." liar-Clinton favors a national gun registry and creating more ways to limit access to firearms.
It is clear, though the Leftmedia seeks to deny it, that liar-Clinton desires to so restrict the Second Amendment — via legislation or likeminded judges — as to make it essentially a dead letter. Oh, she'll never publicly call for the repeal of the Second Amendment, not so long as she can say she supports it while at the same time seeking to undermine it by pushing for restrictive "common sense" laws. But Donald Trump is exactly right, and liar-Clinton and the Leftmedia know it. -The Patriot Post

liar-Clinton Pay-to-Play Smoking Gun
Judicial Watch has released more liar-Hillary Clinton emails obtained through the Freedom of Information Act that indicate liar-Clinton did not abide by her promise to not take action on behalf of the liar-Clinton Foundation while she was secretary of state. These emails bring greater clarity to what has long been known — that liar-Hillary did indeed use her influence as secretary of state to establish essentially a "pay-to-play" scheme between her "charitable" foundation and individuals seeking to gain greater access and influence with U.S. policymakers.
One example: Bill liar-Clinton's staffer asked liar-Hillary Clinton's staffer to set up a meeting between a U.S. ambassador and a Foundation donor, who by the way was a felon. Former liar-Clinton adviser Dick Morris calls that a "closed loop" and a "smoking gun" that rebuts any assertion liar-Clinton did not engage in pay-to-play behavior.
Recall that in 2009 liar-Clinton pledged to remove herself from any liar-Clinton Foundation business while she served in official capacity. Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch, had this to say: "The State Department and the liar-Clinton Foundation worked hand in hand in terms of policy and donor effort. There was no daylight between the two under Mrs. liar-Clinton, and this was contrary to her promise."
And the nObama Justice Department blocked an investigation into the Foundation, because he'd rather not answer those questions.
There is no doubt — and no surprise — that liar-Hillary moonlighted for the liar-Clinton Foundation, breaking her promise. But what about what we don't know from the 30,000 emails that she and her staff selected for deletion? What other crimes or corruption did she cover up? Those emails are gone; the FBI does not have them. So in that sense, it's astounding that there is a smoking gun at all.
Will this new information lead to any formal action taken against liar-Clinton? Don't count on it. All this does is continue to confirm what many have known for a long time: liar-Hillary has a hard time telling the truth. -The Patriot Post

{themuslimissue.wordpress.com} ~ He killed anyone who was an infidel. It’s his religion, he says. The religion by the Saudi and Tunisian clerics in particular. And the main aim is to spread Islam and jihad to Europe and the West... Saudi Arabia is the main source of funding for the jihad but they get donations and support from Islamic countries from around the world. Turkey would provide funding and medical care, even send doctors to help them. Every day over a thousand Muslims arrive to join the Islamic State. They would come from Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt and the West – where tax-payers have funded their residency permits and passports to allow them to stay in their infidel countries. Over 5 million Muslims have been allowed to migrate to Europe in the past five years before the so-called Merkel Migrant “crisis” began. nObama takes in hundreds of thousands per year.... https://themuslimissue.wordpress.com/2016/08/15/interview-with-captured-isis-jihadist-we-killed-everyone-who-was-an-infidel/

Add 7 More Countries to List of World's
Worst Violators of Religious Freedom
by RACHEL HOOVER
by RACHEL HOOVER
{familysecuritymatters.org} ~ The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom(USCIRF) is recommending that the State Department add seven additional countries to its list of 10 nations that engage in the worst violations of religious rights... USCIRF says the seven additional countries that should be designated as CPCs [Countries of Particular Concern] are: Central African Republic, Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Syria, and Vietnam. However, "non-state actors such as Da'esh [also known as ISIS or the Islamic State] and Boko Haram continued to rank amongst the most egregious abusers of religious freedom in the world," according to the International Religious Freedom Report for 2015 released by the State Department on Wednesday...

To push no-nukes agenda, nObama mulls an end-run
by DR. PETER BROOKES
by DR. PETER BROOKES
{familysecuritymatters.org} ~ It's said that nothing focuses the mind like a deadline - including the end of the second term of a presidential administration. For Team nObama, it's legacy time... The White House is in a sprint to get all those tough "to-do's" done before the clock runs out on eight years in office and the chance to check off unfulfilled presidential promises passes for good. On the national security front, the list likely includes items such as closing the terrorist detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, a pledge President nObama made on his first day in the White House way back in 2009. Another item apparently in the "gotta-get-done" file is the president's longstanding dream of achieving "no nukes," a goal he's been struggling to advance for many reasons - including because it runs counter to common sense...

This is How nObama Can Prove We
Have Nothing to Fear From Syrian Refugees
by LT. COLONEL JAMES G. ZUMWALT, USMC
by LT. COLONEL JAMES G. ZUMWALT, USMC
{familysecuritymatters.org} ~ President Barack nObama continues pressing his agenda to increase Syrian refugee relocation in the U.S. Opponents, fearing lax security screening opens our doors to Islamic extremist and criminal elements... act to delay the effort until a better vetting system can be implemented. Opponents' concerns are justified. Islamic terrorist attacks in Europe are on the rise; male Muslims believe the Koran is their passport to sexually attack non-Muslim women; most Muslim immigrants want shariah law imposed in host countries; welfare trusts created by wage-earning natives are being depleted rapidly by non-working Muslim immigrants having multiple wives with multiple children. As parents in most European nations fail to produce the 2.1 children per family necessary to maintain native populations and Muslim immigrant parents reproduce at higher rates, it is clear demographics, within a few generations, will give voice to a large Muslim population...

nObama's Milwaukee
by Matthew Vadum
by Matthew Vadum
{frontpagemag.com} ~ An anti-white reign of Black Lives Matter terror consumed Milwaukee Saturday after a black cop shot a black, gun-wielding suspect for refusing to drop his weapon when lawfully commanded to do so... Gov. Scott Walker (R) activated Wisconsin's National Guard as a precaution but calm had apparently been restored Sunday. The officer who shot the suspect was African-American, police said. His name was not given but he was described as a 24-year-old who'd been with the police department for six years, the last three as an officer. Riots are a great way to move President nObama's "fundamental transformation" ball forward. Like political smears, they don't have to make any sense.

Judge Jeanine – New Info On liar-Clinton
Money Laundering Operation
by Rick Wells
{rickwells.us} ~ Judge Jeanine Pirro opens with the observation that newly released emails indicate the power of the State Department was used to show favoritism to liar-Clinton Foundation donors... She welcomes the author of liar-Clinton Cash, Peter Schweizer, an expert on the topic of liar-Clinton corruption. She notes that some documents that the liar-Clintons had chosen not to release are being forced into the public sphere by a federal judge, Judge Emmit Sullivan. Judge Jeanine asks Mr. Schweizer “What is the latest in terms of the information that we are learning about the liar-Clinton Foundation and that relationship between the Foundation and the State Department, under liar-Hillary Clinton?” Schweizer has a name for the tactic that is being employed by the liar-Clintons, calling it the liar-Clinton Blur. He explains as being the blurring of lines between their private activities, some of them commercial, some of them related to the liar-Clinton Foundation, and the State Department. They were blurring them and the problem is that ethics laws don’t allow you to blur them.”... http://rickwells.us/judge-jeanine-clnton-laundering/

U.S. intelligence officials said construction has been underway for several years on “dozens” of underground bunkers in Moscow and around the country. Disclosure of the underground command bunkers comes as Army Gen.

U.S. Just Sent This Middle Eastern Country
$50 MILLION Worth of Heavy Weaponry
by Philip Hodges
{eaglerising.com} ~ For all their talk about how guns in the United States might end up in the “wrong hands,” you’d think those same politicians would have a problem shelling out heavy weaponry to Middle Eastern countries like there’s no tomorrow... But they don’t have a problem with it. They have to know that it’s highly probable that those heavy weaponry will end up in the hands of some terrorist group – like ISIS. The U.S. just sent Lebanon “50 armored vehicles, 40 artillery pieces, and 50 grenade launchers” – worth about $50 million – as part of our $220 million military aid package to the Middle Eastern country... http://eaglerising.com/35916/u-s-just-sent-this-middle-eastern-country-50-million-of-heavy-weaponry/

Egypt's Crucial Role in the Middle East
by Bassam Tawil
by Bassam Tawil
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ The presence of the Egyptian foreign minister in Israel last month came as a surprise to many. Critical Egyptian public opinion and the Egyptian media indicate that... in the years since the Israeli-Egyptian peace was signed, the formal agreement has yet to trickle into public consciousness and that there is still considerable suspicion on both sides of the border. The same is true of the peace between Israel and Jordan. Under the reign of the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohamed Morsi, relations had reached a new low, with Egypt covertly aiding Iran's proxy, Hamas, against Israel. The visit of Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry to Israel in early July 2016 could be an indication that the frozen peace between Israel and Egyptians, signed by Begin and Sadat in 1979, might be thawing...

Pentagon Faces Budget Cuts in Combating

{freebeacon.com} ~ The Pentagon’s efforts to defeat chemical and biological threats at home and abroad are being hindered by budget cuts, according to an agency report made public last week... The “variety, origin, and severity” of chemical and biological threats facing the Defense Department are compounding as its resources to fight them are constrained, the Pentagon wrote in an annual report to Congress assessing the agency’s readiness to operate during a conflict where chemical and biological weapons are used. “The DoD faces chemical and biological threats that are complex, diverse, and pose enduring risks to the Joint Force and Homeland,” stated the June report, which was obtained on Thursday by the Federation of American Scientists through a Freedom of Information Act request... http://freebeacon.com/national-security/pentagon-faces-budget-cuts-combating-bio-chem-warfare/?utm_source=Freedom+Mail&utm_campaign=7428d900f1-WFB_Morning_Beacon_08_15_168_14_2016&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-7428d900f1-45611665

The Pipeline’s Approved
Environmentalists Are Angry
Environmentalists Are Angry
by Marita Noon
{townhall.com} ~ Final federal approval for what is being called the “new Keystone” came from the Army Corps of Engineers on July 26—allowing the pipeline to move forward. The 1,168-mile long Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL), also called the Bakken Pipeline, is comparable in length to the Keystone XL. It will cross four states and carry 450,000 barrels of oil a day from North Dakota to a transfer terminal in Illinois where it will connect with other pipelines and be taken to refineries.
The $3.8 billion dollar project has pitted environmentalists against economic interests.
During the Keystone fight, outspoken opponent Jane Kleeb, founder of Bold Nebraska, said: “In America we should be focused on making sure that the oil in North Dakota, Oklahoma, and others, in Montana, that oil is getting to market.” Now, thanks to DAPL, America’s oil will have a safer way to get “to market”—freeing up as many as 750 train cars a day to transport corn, soybeans, and grain. However, as soon as DAPL came on the scene, they moved the marker, and environmental opposition was mounted. Bold Iowa, a group that shares a website with Kleeb’s Bold Nebraska, says it has members willing to risk arrest in “nonviolent protests.” They are also training monitors to report any environmental violations or hazards.
On August 1, nine pieces of heavy equipment—excavators and bulldozers—were set on fire at three different DAPL construction sites, causing $3 million in damage. At the time of this writing, no arrests have been made. Additionally, protestors have gathered on the grounds of the North Dakota Capitol, calling for Governor Jack Dalrymple and legislators to put a halt to construction of the pipeline until their lawsuits are addressed.
On its “Stop the Bakken Pipeline” page, the Iowa Sierra Club posted: “A new pipeline will delay the US transition to clean and renewable energy and more fuel-efficient vehicles. The United States needs to move away from fossil fuel extractions and to energy sources that have less impact on climate change.”
The Club’s position sounds a lot like liar-Hillary Clinton’s. When she finally came out against Keystone, she said: “We need to be transitioning from fossil fuels to clean energy.” She called the pipeline “a distraction from important work we have to do on climate change.”
Opposition, however, is not as broad-based as the environmental groups had hoped for. At an April meeting of the Bakken Pipeline Resistance Coalition in Iowa, organizers were disappointed. Chairs were set up for 200, but only about 40 “trickled in.” In the four states the pipeline will cross, more than 90 percent, on average, of the landowners signed the voluntary easement agreements.
At its peak, the DAPL’s construction is expected to involve as many as 4000 workers in each state and will require the purchase of $200 million in American-made heavy construction and related equipment from Caterpillar, Deere, and Vermeer.
Cory Bryson, Business Agent for Laborers Local 563 reports: “We’ve been inundated with calls from all over the country from people wanting to work on this pipeline project. Mainline pipeline projects like Dakota Access provide excellent working opportunities for our members and tremendous wages. The Laborers excel at this work.” No wonder men and women want to travel to the pipeline’s locale, some workers, most without college degrees, brag about banking $2-5000 a week.
In Illinois, the Jacksonville Area Chamber of Commerce has assembled hundreds of packets with information including restaurants, health-care facilities, RV sites, and Laundromats. Executive Director Lisa Musch reports that her office has been receiving calls for months from people looking for rental properties. Teriann Gutierrez, owner of Buena Vista Farms, a resort-campground, and a retired plastics engineer, says: “I’ve been full since the beginning of April.” She told me the boost in population is bringing a lot of money into the community that has been hit hard with the loss of manufacturing jobs. DAPL is putting a lot of local people to work. Gutierrez is very thankful as the boom means she’ll be able to pay down debt.
“Like any major construction project, the DAPL will create, and more importantly maintain, high paying American jobs throughout the supply chain and throughout the nation,” North Dakota’s at-large Congressman Kevin Cramer said. “I’ve seen the crews that work on building the line and they take great pride in their craft. They spend money in local, usually rural, communities throughout the route. The steel suppliers and equipment manufacturers and distributors are just a few of the links in the chain. Everybody from fry cooks to hotel owners to financers are affected. Perhaps, most importantly, in a low price crude market, the economics of moving oil by the most efficient and safe manner possible preserves jobs on the production side of the equation as well.”
While DAPL is already creating lots of jobs, it is just one of many pipeline projects in the works that could be bringing much needed economic development to other communities and high-paying jobs for American workers. Gutierrez explained that, according to the workers staying at Buena Vista Farms: “The hardest thing is getting the permits. The long process holds up jobs.” Apparently, many of them made reservations but, then, had to delay them—and delay starting to work on the pipeline—because the permits hadn’t been approved as expected. It doesn’t have to be that way. Under President nObama, permitting for oil-and-gas activity has been slow-walked. Jobs have been held up.
Donald Trump has made clear that he’ll support pipelines and said he’ll invite TransCanada to reapply for the Keystone permit. On the other side, liar-Clinton opposed Keystone and supports moving away from fossil fuels. Secretary of State John hanoi-Kerry, liar-Clinton’s successor, has implied that with “some 300 pipelines” we really don’t need any more. He said: “it’s not as if we’re pipeline-less.” A liar-Clinton administration would likely extend the nObama delay tactic.
Whichever candidate wins in November will appoint agency heads who support his or her views—thus driving the policy direction.
Like Gutierrez, union members are grateful for the jobs. Last week, Dave Barnett, Pipeline Representative for the United Association of Journeymen and Apprentices of the Plumbing and Pipefitting Industry, told me: “We are pleased that the thousands of job opportunities associated with these projects are being decided on their need and merits, not on political pressures by extremists as the Keystone XL was.”
Whether the thousands of additional job opportunities materialize depends on American voters. Will we vote for pipelines that fuel the American economy and transport our natural resources safely and cheaply? Or, will we block job creation and economic development by voting with the environmentalists who want to “keep it in the ground?” In less than 100 days, we’ll have the answer to these important questions.
