Much related video and article here. Worth seeing. The solution to all of this is perfectly simple, and peaceful. Simply cut all public funding to all universities. Personally I think it should be cut to all schools, but start with universities and the problem solves itself.

3. Court Criticizes Obama Admin for Illegal Spying on U.S. Citizens

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Intelligence agencies violated the constitutional rights of American citizens through illegal surveillance during the Obama administration, recently declassified documents from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) show.

The secretive court also notes a change for the better under President Trump’s team.

The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) authorizes two courts to provide judicial review for U.S. intelligence agencies when their activities require them to monitor people on U.S. soil. One is FISC, and the other is the court that hears appeals from FISC decisions, the U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review (FISCR). The benches of FISC are comprised of federal judges from regular federal trial courts throughout the nation, and three appellate judges from around the nation comprise the bench of FISCR.

4. Priest says he and 200 others held hostage in Philippines

A Catholic priest who was taken hostage by militants linked to the Islamic State group says he’s being held alongside 200 other captives, including children, in what appeared to be a battle-scarred part of a southern Philippine city.

 

In a video apparently taken under duress by militants, Father Teresito Suganob said his captors wanted the military to withdraw its forces from Marawi, where Islamic militants still hold pockets of territory after a week of gunbattles with the army.

 

A colleague of Suganob confirmed to The Associated Press that the man in the video is the priest. It was not clear when the video was taken or who released it online, and whether Suganob believed what he was saying or was forced to say it.

 

“We want to live another day, we want to live another month,” Suganob said, standing in front of debris and partially burned buildings. Directing his remarks to Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, he said, “We want to live few years and in your generosity, Mr. President, in your heart, we know you can make something (happen).”

  1. Combine the Black Power types with the antifa in the attack on Saundra Salomon, the civil wars are going kinetic, the left will be assassinating people soon. Anyone who can needs to get a protective detail or protective vests and handguns to use in self defense.

    Clearly, these “have-our-cake-and-eat-it-too” Liberals are in line to learn one of life’s harshest lessons. As in, when you ensure that your opponent has “nothing to lose”, they become one of the most dangerous foes you possibly can imagine.

    Eliminating all channels of resolution or reconciliation assures that those who have been forbidden any success will escalate to whatever degree it takes in order to alter that iniquitous equation.

    I can think of few better ways to achieve this supremely, self-destructive end than attempting to label a committed anti-segregationist as “racist”. May these little moron sh!ts find out the hard way. Twice!
