  1. “They are chanting ‘Death to Khamenei!’”

    I’m so teddibly, oh, so, very teddibly … incredibly heppy. This makes me so teddibly, teddibly, heppy.

    Hey, alla youse? Is there any way to speed up this process by several orders of magnitude?!? I think a certain (as-to-yet-unspecified) fraction of the MME population might appreciate a giddy-yup with their Democratization process. And if they don’t, welllllll then, maybe a few nuclear enemas might facilitate matters in unexpected ways…

    • Not gonna happen overnight, I’m afraid.
      The bad guys are highly organized, heavily armed, ruthless.

      “Democratization” is probably unsustainable in those parts. Whatever, Go for it guys!
      Beats having to go after the Twisted-Ragheads ourselves.

      • We didn’t have the net in the late 70s but memory says it took several months of semi steady protests before Carter ordered the Shah to leave Iran.

  2. The Left in 2018: Unhinged

    Liberals have tried to turn the U.S. and the west in to one gigantic Jones Town.
    Can’t we just fast forward to the part where they drink the Kool-aid and commit the act of revolutionary suicide to protest an inhumane world.

    • Please, MissPiggy, keep it up with the Jones Town and Kool–Aid™ references until people here at Vlad Tepes Blog finally begin to understand that our world is headed towards these sort of Suicide Gulags™ (you saw it here first!).

      You, and I both know, that Globalist, Tranzi powers are doing everything and anything possible (within their increasingly limitless powers) towards making all efforts to DEFEAT simple, honest, straightforward, GOODNESS, as some sort of evil, cruel, NAZI, weirdness. Thank goodness, all of us can see this, and all of us KNOW BETTER.

      Those of us who are not so observant… deserve every last bitter vetch! Eh?

      Is that good enough or should we keep on going for the UPV (Ultimate Pyrrhic Victory) award and make our Islamic enemies truly proud! of themselves? Life should be so simple for us moron Infidels!

    • Second try, my IP is doing something so the net is on and off.

      To answer your question, no we can’t speed things up. The band is playing a hesitation waltz to an asymmetric civil war and we are stuck with the pace of the waltz. The adults that Tucker was talking to are probably going crazy trying to find a way to stop their crazies from committing more acts that will cause more people to vote Repub. The proper timing for their idiotic actions would be after the election but the left is stuck with a bunch of crazies (in and out of Congress) who are going to force the war on us, probably before the election.

  3. Is It Ok To Kick Trump Supporters Out Of Restaurants? Daily Caller asks some bonafide Liberals what they think:

    The Daily Caller’s Stephanie Hamill and Benny Johnson hit the streets of Washington, D.C., to ask liberal Americans if it is okay to discriminate against President Trump’s administration officials and his supporters . Some of the reactions may surprise you.

    • Yes some of the answers are surprising, and the appalling ignorance of the leftist is incredible.

      • The first YT link is his latest video. For some reason it shows only as link, i see a thumbnail for the second one.

        • If the youtube url isn’t the last thing on the post it won’t show a thumbnail.

  4. (Un)CIVIL WAR?

    One side has 8 trillion bullets. The other side doesn’t know what bathroom to use.

    Ya´ll do the math.

    • “One side has 8 trillion bullets. The other side doesn’t know what bathroom to use.”

      This is a classic battle of wits with an unarmed person.

      • In a war pick the side with the most weapons and the most trained people.

        This is the female child, care to guess what Mom and Dad are like?

  5. More on the attack on dutch newspaper De Telegraaf. Their crime reporter John van den Heuvel thinks the Moroccan maffia is behind it, so there’s an islamic angle (sort of). All stroies in dutch:
    https://www.telegraaf.nl/nieuws/2222870/rol-mocro-maffia-aannemelijk

    At a meeting of dutch mayors and aldermen, writer Tommy Wieringa said about the attack “it whave happened sooner”, about half the crowd clapped and cheered:

    • correction, “it should have happened sooner”. He said the same about the earlier attack with RPG. Video evidence:

        • Hi,

          I guess I could translate just this one video. But I can’t translate on a regular basis, sorry, I don’t have the time.
          If you need dutch material translated I think there are plenty of volunteers. You could contact Paul Nielsen for example, he’s on YT. Roni Stoker had a similar YT channel that was taken down, he wrote for Pam Geller’s site, maybe she has contact details.

          • Thank you.

            May I suggest using the free software, Aegisub?

            It makes the process of making timed translations easy and fast and its an easy learning curve for most.

            If you find a video that is of sufficient importance it would be great if you could email me an exported .srt file with the timed translation when you feel its worth your effort. Just email it to me. If your comments have your real email address on them Ill write you so that you have mine.

            Thanks for your comments and links. We need this kind of information.

    THOUSANDS March to Say, “We Want Our Country Back”

  7. Skepticism as Sweden Splurges Billions on ‘First Ever’ Anti-Segregation Plan (sputniknews, Jun 27, 2018)
    https://sputniknews.com/europe/201806271065814949-sweden-segregation-ghettos/

    “In a bid to rid the Scandinavian country of dozens of “extra vulnerable areas” (which is a bureaucratic euphemism for ghettos), the Swedish government plans to invest a whopping SEK 19 billion ($2 billion) in measures to “reduce and counter segregation.”

    Following Prime Minister Stefan Löfven’s election pledge to purge Sweden of segregation, the Swedish government has presented a new long-term strategy aimed at “reducing gaps in society” and “creating a safe and united Sweden that holds together.”

    “No single effort alone can break segregation, instead this requires long-term cross-sector work at national, regional and local levels. Segregation can only be reduced if the state, municipalities, county councils, civil society, industry and researchers work both individually and together,” the Swedish government said in a press release.

    According to the anti-segregation plan, 32 socioeconomically disadvantaged municipalities will receive extra support. In total, the Swedish government aims to allocate over SEK 19 billion ($2 billion) by 2028.

    Within the framework of the initiative, five priority areas have been highlighted: housing, education, labor market, democracy and civil society. The funds will be distributed between municipalities with a high incidence of “exclusion areas,” such as Södertälje, Botkyrka and Malmö, with Stockholm and Gothenburg being key recipients with SEK 269 million ($30 million) and SEK 173 million ($20 million) a year respectively.

    “The municipalities are key players in the work to weed out segregation. Many municipalities are already actively and strategically working to exterminate segregation and increase equality. With additional government resources, the government allows the municipalities to further enhance their work,” Coordination and Energy Minister Ibrahim Baylan of the Social Democratic party said.

    Conservative economic spokeswoman Elisabeth Svantesson, by contrast, doesn’t believe the massive investment will ever become crucial in reducing segregation.

    “We have had enough integration projects in these areas that have failed,” Svantesson told Swedish Radio. “The big problem is that we have set demands on adults to learn Swedish too low and we haven’t made sure that the police enforce laws and regulations,” she added.

    Conservative municipal councilor Fredrik Ahlstedt from Uppsala has argued that the government was investing “very little in what’s actually important.”

    Södertälje native Richard Hagert was also skeptical of the plan.

    “I do not believe that. It’s just an election promise. Go back four years, see what kind of promises they had and check what they have been doing. Not a s**t,” Hagert told Göteborgs-Posten.

    As of 2017, Sweden had identified 61 “vulnerable areas,” marked by a high crime rate, urban blight, unemployment, civil unrest and proliferated drug abuse. A total of 23 of them have been classified as “extra vulnerable.””

    • They are living for free now,how much more are going to give them?they are largely exempt from all laws,as are wogs all across Europe,the only thing that you can offer them is the sincere plea,please put your foot on my neck.so let us hope that the swede voters kick this pack of scum out in the next election and get some grown up government.

  8. Labour’s Top Man in Brussels Vows to Block ‘Extreme’ Plans for Asylum Centres Outside EU (breitbart, Jun 27, 2018)
    http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/06/27/labour-block-asylum-centres-eu/

    “The open borders-backing Labour MEP in charge of the European Parliament’s committee on migration law has vowed to block plans to process asylum claims outside of EU territory.

    Claude Moraes, who chairs the justice and home affairs committee, blasted proposals to offshore asylum claims as “extreme”, complaining the system would see “no guarantee” that third world migrants who made the journey to Europe would be settled in an EU nation.

    Described as a “big beast” of European politics, the mass migration-promoting Labour figure said a large proportion of MEPs on the influential committee share his opposition to offshore camps, telling The Guardian: “We think these ideas are extreme and we are not going to touch them.”

    Moraes stated that the parliament, which has to give consent to the EU budget, would block any version of the next seven-year budget which contains funding for migrant screening centres in North Africa — a measure intended to cut the number of sea deaths which has backing from a number of national governments in Europe.

    “Offshoring … is not an asylum system in our view, because you wouldn’t guarantee human rights, you wouldn’t guarantee proper processing and you wouldn’t have any guarantee that someone who had any asylum claim would end up in the European Union,” he said.

    Named on the “reliable ally” list of MEPs which was revealed to be held by globalist financier George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, Moraes is an activist for mass migration from the Global South, announcing to The Guardian in 2007 his determination to combat “whiteness” in Brussels…”

        Don’t let the commies get away with weaponizing another generation – the way “Palestinians” were arbitrarily distinguished from generic Arab Sunnis.

    http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/06/27/turks-and-kurds-violently-clash-in-france-following-erdogan-election-win/

    “Dozens of members of the Turkish and Kurdish communities in a French commune violently clashed with each other following the election win of Islamist Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an.

    According to police, Turks and Kurds fought each other with iron bars, swords, and sticks during the mass brawl which occurred Sunday night in Mantes-la-Jolie just outside of Paris, Le Parisien reports.

    The incident marks the first major violence between Kurds and Turks in the commune and it was said to have begun after Turkish Erdo?an supporters had flown the Turkish flag in front of Kurdish cafes. The Turks were then attacked by Kurdish locals who also are said to have attacked two Turkish cafes in retaliation.

    Around 1,000 Turkish and 400 Kurdish families live in the area. “We talk so little about politics. But among the old or those who are not born here, it is sometimes tense but never violent,” a local Turkish man said…”

    “A French member of Islamic State has admitted that the organisation had made plans to send child soldiers disguised as underage asylum seekers to Europe to carry out terrorist attacks.

    French jihadist Jonathan Geffroy was captured by the Free Syrian Army in early 2017 and given over to French authorities later that year where currently he awaits trial for criminal conspiracy, Le Monde reports.

    Geffroy was interrogated several times between September 2017 and February 2018 by the French General Directorate of Internal Security (DGSI), claiming that he wanted to cooperate with the counter-terrorism organisation.

    The jihadist said that he was in close contact with Jean-Michel and Fabien Clain while in Syria. The brothers are believed to be the highest-ranking French members of Islamic State still alive in the region and they were the ones, according to Geffroy, who wanted to send child soldiers to Europe to carry out attacks…”

  11. The Latest: Turkey says car bombs kill 6 in Syrian enclave (abcnews, Jun 27, 2018)
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/latest-turkey-car-bombs-kill-syrian-enclave-56197863

    “Turkey’s state-run news agency says at least six people have been killed in two car bomb attacks in a northern Syrian enclave controlled by Turkish troops and allied Syrian opposition fighters.

    Anadolu Agency says Wednesday’s explosions, which also wounded about 20 people, took place in the center of the town of Afrin.

    Turkish military and allied Syrian forces captured the town and its environs in March, driving away a Kurdish militia which had controlled the region.

    Turkey considers the Syrian Kurdish militia, known as the People’s Defense Units, or YPG, as “terrorists” linked to outlawed Kurdish rebels fighting within Turkey.

    No group claimed responsibility for the bombings. Anadolu says the attacks are being investigated. The private DHA agency, without citing a source, blamed Kurdish fighters.”

    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/libyan-coast-guard-rescues-200-migrants-bound-europe-56193916

    “Libya’s coast guard says it has intercepted 200 African migrants in the Mediterranean Sea.

    Spokesman Ayoub Gassim said late Tuesday a wooden boat was stopped off the eastern coast of the capital, Tripoli.

    Libya’s coast guard has rescued more than 1,100 migrants this week, including dozens of women and children.

    Libya descended into chaos following the 2011 uprising that toppled and later killed Moammar Gaddafi. Since then the north African country has emerged as a major transit point to Europe for those fleeing poverty and civil war elsewhere in Africa.

    Libyan authorities have recently stepped up efforts to stem the flow of migrants, with European assistance.”

    Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Tuesday issued a statement congratulating two progressive candidates on their primary wins.

    Sanders endorsed Ben Jealous in the Democratic primary for Maryland governor. Jealous, a former NAACP president, won Tuesday and will take on Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) in November.

    “Ben showed that running a progressive, issue-oriented campaign can bring all working people together in the fight for justice,” Sanders said in the statement. “That’s what Ben has done in the primary and that is what a united Democratic Party will do in the general election.”

  15. Soros Backs Personal Injury Lawsuits in Market With 20% Returns

    The billionaire George Soros has found a new way to make money from personal-injury lawsuits.

    Soros Fund Management is pushing into a branch of litigation finance that few hedge funds have entered. His family office is bankrolling a company that’s creating investment portfolios out of lawsuits, according to a May regulatory filing.

    The development is the latest twist on the litigation funding market, which has drawn criticism for monetizing and encouraging the lawsuit culture in the U.S. The firm Soros is backing, Mighty Group, bundles cash advances that small shops extend to plaintiffs in personal injury suits in return for a cut of future settlements. Mighty Group’s approach opens the door to another potential development: securitizing individual lawsuit bets for sale to other investors.

    “There are all the ingredients there to securitize these things,” said Adrian Chopin, a managing director at legal finance firm Bench Walk Advisors. “A diversified, granular pool with predictable outcomes. The problem is, you can’t yet get these things rated” by credit agencies.

  16. Federal Judge Orders Immigrant Family Reunification Within 30 days — Ends Family Separation

    Kevin Daley | Supreme Court Reporter

    A federal judge in California ordered the Trump administration to end its migrant family separation policy within 30 days late Tuesday.

    U.S. District Court Judge Dana Sabraw of San Diego issued the preliminary injunction, finding the practice likely violates the Constitution. The decision is not a ruling on the merits of the dispute.

    “Asylum seekers like Ms. L. and many other class members may be fleeing persecution and are entitled to careful consideration by government officials, particularly so if they have a credible fear of persecution,” he wrote. “We are a country of laws, and of compassion. We have plainly stated our intent to treat refugees with an ordered process, and benevolence, by codifying principles of asylum.”

    “The government’s treatment of Ms. L. and other similarly situated class members does not meet this standard, and it is unlikely to pass constitutional muster,” he added.

    When President Trump tweeted “The FAKE NEWS media (failing @nytimes, @NBCNews, @ABC, @CBS, @CNN) is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People!” the media quickly went ballistic.

    Wolf Blitzer, speaking on behalf of CNN, replied: “A lot of his supporters believe that we are the enemy of the American people, and that is really an awful situation. We are not the enemy of the American people. We love the American people.”

    The media loves the American people?

  18. China: US can’t protect Taiwan from unification

    U.S. forces can’t protect Taiwan from ultimate unification with China, the communist regime’s diplomatic team emphasized Tuesday.

    “It won’t work even if they try to bank on foreign forces to build themselves up,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang told reporters.

    Lu offered that warning in response to President Tsai Ing-wen of Taiwan, who called for aid against China’s bid for regional hegemony. The Chinese diplomat, in an assertion of sovereignty over the island, dismissed Tsai’s remarks as a matter that “falls within China’s internal affairs” before issuing a blunter rebuke.

  19. Xi tells Mattis China won’t give up ‘one inch’ of territory

    BEIJING (Reuters) – China is committed to peace and won’t cause “chaos” in the world, but cannot give up even an inch of territory that the country’s ancestors have left behind, Chinese President Xi Jinping told U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis on Wednesday.

    Mattis, a former Marine general, has been highly critical of China’s muscular military moves in the disputed South China Sea. The U.S. military even withdrew an invitation to China to join a multinational naval exercise that will start during Mattis’ visit, upsetting Beijing.

    Mattis is visiting against a backdrop of spiraling tension between Beijing and Washington over trade.

    Beijing is also deeply suspicious of U.S. intentions toward self-governing and democratic Taiwan, which is armed by the United States. China views the island as a sacred part of its territory.

    Meeting in Beijing’s Great Hall of the People, Xi told Mattis Xi that China had only peaceful intentions and would not “cause chaos”, state television reported.

    Both countries’ common interests far outweigh their differences, but on territorial issues there can be no concessions, Xi added, without referring to specific areas.

    “We cannot loose even one inch of the territory left behind by our ancestors. What is other people’s, we do not want at all,” state television cited Xi as saying.

  20. After protests, Iran’s Supreme leader calls for punishment of those who disrupt economic security

    BEIRUT (Reuters) – Iran’s Supreme leader called on the judiciary to punish those “who disrupt economic security” on Wednesday, following protests earlier this week over the rial’s collapse and the prospect of more hardships to come thanks to U.S. measures against Tehran.

    Business at Tehran’s Grand Bazaar was back to normal on Wednesday after a two-day strike had closed most shops. On Monday traders massed outside parliament to complain about the plunge to record lows of Iran’s currency.

    Reuters was unable to verify footage showing riot police clashing with protesters. Public protests are rare in Iran but in recent months there have been several over the state of the economy.

    “The atmosphere for the work, life and livelihood of the people must be secure,” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in a meeting with judiciary officials, according to his official website.

    “And the judiciary must confront those who disrupt economic security.”

    Following Washington’s withdrawal from a 2015 nuclear deal between world powers and Iran, some U.S. sanctions are due to be reimposed in August and some in November.

  21. Time to prepare for ‘no deal’ Brexit scenario: French presidency official

    PARIS (Reuters) – Prime Minister Theresa May will be told at a European summit this week that while there is progress on the terms of Britain’s departure from the European Union, both sides should prepare for a “no deal” scenario, a French presidency source said.

    With nine months left until Britain is due to leave the EU, there is still little clarity over Britain’s future relationship with the bloc after Brexit.

    Without agreement, in particular over how to avoid a hard border between Ireland and Northern Ireland after withdrawal, the EU cannot conclude a “divorce” treaty with Britain, raising the prospect that Britain could leave without a deal.

    “Everyone agrees that a no deal scenario is bad news,” the Elysee Palace official told reporters in a briefing ahead of the June 28-29 summit of EU leaders in Brussels.

    The Elysee official said leaders at the summit will convey to May that despite advances in negotiations, key points remain unanswered and that, since the clock is still ticking, it is necessary to prepare for no deal.

    “It’s not what we want, it’s not what the British want,” the official added. “Nor is it the most likely option. But we have to prepare for it with seriousness because it would be inexplicable for us, on both sides, to tell our investors and our businesses ‘we have not prepared for this scenario.’”

  22. Samantha Bee staff writer writes off ‘civility’ as a ‘tool of white supremacy’
    By LU Staff June 27, 2018

    Apparently when Barack Obama made a publicly televised plea for “a more civil and honest public discourse” in the wake of the Tuscon shootings in 2011, it was the white blood in him speaking. That’s the only logical conclusion one can draw from a decidedly cutesy albeit hostile tweet posted Monday by Ashley Nicole Black, a writer for “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee,” that dismisses civility as “a tool of white supremacy.”

    “Oh hello. I didn’t see you there!” Black wrote. “Civility is a tool of white supremacy. Ok, cool. Byeeeeee!”

    How exactly civility is a “white” thing Black doesn’t say, though outwardly her observation would appear to put black people in a negative light.

    It’s not just black writers who are down on civility. On Saturday, The New Republic’s Jeet Heer tweeted:

    • John Legend’s modest proposal for how admin. officials can avoid harassment by flash mobs
      By Ben Bowles June 27, 2018

      Singer John Legend knows a thing or two about white, out-of-shape Trump supporters. In 2017, he put out a casting call for the same to appear in a music video.

      And now he has advice for White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders as well, presumably, as all members of the Trump administration. If they want to avoid being ejected from a restaurant or harassed in any of the ways Maxine Waters outlined in her incitement to mob violence on Saturday, they should resign their post. It’s that simple.

      Legend shared this ingenious plan in a series of tweets on Monday (warning: graphic language):

    By J.E. Dyer June 27, 2018

    This is naturally the story of the night from the 26 June primaries in seven states. Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 28, defeated 10-term Congressman Joe Crowley – Democratic Caucus chair and widely thought to be a likely replacement for Nancy Pelosi – in a primary contest that wasn’t even close.

    Ocasio-Cortez was a Bernie supporter in 2016, and a member of Democratic Socialists of America. Her platform, containing no surprises, is below.

    • She represents the future of the Dems, her policies are the future of the Dems.

      Does anyone think anyone with those radical ideas can win even in Liberal New York?

      Remember when they don’t win at the ballot box the far left has a history of violent revolution, the only good thing about that is that it kills off the idiots like her.

      • Only the crazy side of the Dems voted. The rest stayed home. As long as we don’t get lazy, we’ll take the ballot box by default.

        The crazies will definitely take it to the streets.
        We better start planning for it. Infiltrate their “resistence”, get the U.S. Marshal’s (or any copshop we can trust) to do the agent provocateur -thing. Audit the money-men.

    “The finger is aimed at the lobbyists who, according to Di Maio, surround the European Parliament by moving within the EU institutions to influence their decision-making processes. The Minister then charges the government arms against any decisions that the European Parliament could take on: ” We will do everything in our power to oppose the directive to the European Parliament and should it pass as it is, we will have to make a serious reflection at the national level on whether or not it is possible to implement it Because the internet must be kept free, independent, at the service of citizens No one can afford to take preventive actions, even if that person is called the European Commission “.

  25. Supreme Court rules non-union workers cannot be forced to pay fees to public sector unions
    By Daily Caller News Foundation June 27, 2018

    The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that public sector unions cannot force some 5 million government workers to pay mandatory fees.

    A five-justice majority led by Justice Samuel Alito found the practice violates the Constitution.

    A 1977 Supreme Court precedent called Abood v. Detroit Board of Education allows public sector unions to collect administrative fees from government workers to cover the cost of collective bargaining. Many state and local governments designate a single union as their exclusive bargaining partner, meaning all public employees are bound by the contractual agreements labor leaders reach with public officials.

    These so-called agency fees protect union shops from the free-rider problem, in which non-unionized workers enjoy the benefits of membership without enrolling in a union.

    Abood also provides that agency fees may only be used for contract negotiations. They cannot finance political expenditures.

  28. the daily caller -THIS COULD BE A MAJOR REASON DEMOCRATS WON’T PRESS CHARGES AGAINST THE AWANS [VIDEO]

    Editor-in-Chief of The Daily Caller News Foundation, Chris Bedford, shed light on a hacking scandal Wednesday surrounding Democratic Rep. Yvette Clarke and her possible ties to Pakistan.

    “These allegations bring a new kind of allegation to the whole Awan case. So far we’ve really been dealing with hacking and unauthorized access to networks, possibly ferreting information back to Pakistan,” Bedford said on Fox Business’ “Mornings With Maria.” “Now we actually have people who are implicating a chief of staff for a congresswoman, Yvette Clarke. Chief of staff Shelley Davis.”

    Bedford said Davis was implicated by Clarke’s deputy chief of staff Wendy Anderson, who suspected Davis was working with Abid Awan to steal equipment and information from Congress.

    “[Anderson] had walked in around December 2015 in the office and she’d found Awan with iPads, iPods, little music players. All this different computer equipment spread around the desk of the Congresswoman’s office. She ordered him out and after a little while told investigators that she thought that he was ordering equipment which came from about 10 percent of the Congresswoman’s budget, to sell with the Chief of staff.”

    Clarke didn’t take action against Awan and tried to write off the stolen equipment as missing.

    “She wrote off about one-tenth of her budget as missing equipment that seemed like it must have been lost and did not end up firing Awan until Congressional investigators said, ‘Hold on a second. Why is 10 percent of your budget gone on missing equipment? This seems like there could be a procurement fraud,” Bedford continued.

    “If there’s actually a ring of people, a chief of staff who are stealing — involved in a thing like this, then Congressmen aren’t going to want that dirty laundry aired,” he concluded. “This would implicate potentially dozens and dozens of Democrats.”

    “BEIRUT (Reuters) – Iranians must stand together in the face of American pressure to “bring America to its knees,” President Hassan Rouhani said on Wednesday in an address broadcast on state television.

    “We will take problems. We will take pressure. But we will not sacrifice our independence,” said Rouhani.

    He is regarded as a moderate but has talked increasingly tough as U.S. President Donald Trump has withdrawn Washington from world powers’ 2015 nuclear deal with Iran and reimposed harsh sanctions on the Islamic Republic.”

  31. New chain-link mosque unveiled in Vancouver

    A transparent mosque made out of the same material as a chain-link fence is the first installation for the fourth Vancouver Biennale.

    The work is called Paradise Has Many Gates by Ajlan Gharem, an artist from Saudi Arabia. It was officially unveiled Tuesday in Vanier Park.

    The work, which is 9.7 m by 29.8 m (32 ft by 98 ft), is recognizable as a mosque by its minaret, dome, and ornate windows.

    “The mosque is a conduit for the symbolic power wielded by all those above the unwitting individual, from elder brother to father, neighbourly imam and, eventually, the state,” Gharem has said about his work.

    “The mosque is the public square reincarnate but with attendance mandatory, at least socially.”

    On Wednesday, June 27, The Vancouver Biennale will hold a Sunset Picnic in the park to celebrate Multiculturalism Day. The picnic starts at 6 p.m. and continues to 9:22 p.m.

    During the picnic, the mosque will be illuminated green as the sun sets.

  32. GOP Rep Drops Bomb About Death Threats He Received

    Republican Arizona Rep. David Schweikert says he received more death threats in 2017 than every other year he’s been in office combined.

    “My fear is this is the playbook of a lot of our brothers and sisters on the left — they’re going to get fringier and fringier, louder and louder, angrier and angrier, and as you and I know, we sometimes have some folks in our society who aren’t completely healthy,” Schweikert said while appearing on “Plaidcast,” a podcast hosted by Republican Rep. Sean Duffy of Wisconsin.

    “And we had more death threats last year, in my office, even one towards my little girl, than we’ve ever had in all the other years combined and my fear is that this rage that is being generated for political turnout is actually really becoming unhealthy for our political society,” Schweikert continued.

    The Arizona congressman has served in Congress since 2011.

  33. The New Long March- The Fate Of China’s Military Veterans

    With its team of sleek public relations evangelists donning the latest Western hipster wardrobe, complete with sinuous tattoos and piercings that would turn the ancient weathered stone of the Great Wall from gray to a technicolered dream, the propaganda mechanism of the Communist party paints the struggling nation, as an innovative theme park of impossible vast public megaprojects and razor sharp skyscrapers.

    The breathtaking images of scenic vistas and smiling beautiful young people navigating seamlessly through grand and polished corridors and kept under constant surveillance by the latest facial recognition generation of camera software controlled by the precursor to the thought police, provides the stark and telling contrast of a totalitarian government editing the present with cool jump cuts to control the past and the future.

    In reality, the stumbling dragon of the Far East, is struck by poverty, limited human rights, and a government that is as broke as Jim Carrey in feebly and pathetically attempting to brainwash the rest of the world that all is well, and overcompensating with gaudy displays of architecture. The most telling compartment of the current societal crises, is the legions of People Liberation Army veterans roaming the country in a state of trance onset by a complete absence of retirement funds, and physical and mental healthcare. This is the same generation of soldiers in the height of the dot com boom of the late 1990’s, who founded middle companies to do business with the power brokers of the West in directly funding defense research and cauterizing the large-scale hemorrhaging of billions of dollars lost to corruption.

  35. Years after Genocide, Yazidis Urgently Need Help

    On June 13, Mark Green, administrator of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), finally offered some good news for the persecuted Christians and Yazidis in Iraq. In an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal entitled: “Help Is on the Way for Middle Eastern Christians,” he wrote:

    “Every day of delay brings persecuted communities that much closer to extinction. In Iraq alone, nearly 90% of Christians have fled in the past 15 years, emptying entire villages that had stood for more than a thousand years. The Yazidi population has been similarly decimated. Without immediate additional support, these groups may be forced to continue their unprecedented exodus, perhaps never to return to their ancient homes.

    “The time to act is now. Christians, Yazidis and other persecuted religious communities in the Middle East have suffered unspeakable harm for too long. Their plight has touched the hearts of the American people and stirred this nation to step up with compassion and conviction. President Trump promised to provide them with the help they need to rebuild their communities and restore their hope, and we will work tirelessly to break down any barrier that stands in the way.”

    The 2014 invasion of the region of Sinjar (or Shingal) in Iraq by the Islamic State (ISIS) brought a mostly forgotten community to the attention of the world: the Yazidis, one of the world’s most persecuted ethno-religious groups. A peaceful, non-Muslim people who oppose bloodshed, Yazidis have for centuries been targeted for their faith. Their native lands contain parts of Iraq, Turkey and Syria. Yazidis say that they have been subjected to 74 genocidal campaigns and severe oppression throughout their history at the hands of Islamists.

  36. Angela Rye accuses Schumer and Pelosi of racism – over their reaction to Maxine Waters

    A former executive director of the Congressional Black Caucus accused critics of Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) of being animated by racism.

    Angela Rya, a frequent guest on CNN, angrily denounced critics of Waters and her call for liberal activists to continue harassing members of the administration of President Donald Trump.

    “The point is very simple,” Rya angrily exclaimed to CNN’s Erin Burnett. “I demand that people stop requiring Congresswoman Waters to behave in one way while everybody else can do something else! Nancy Pelosi says let’s make America beautiful again – whose America is she talking about?”

  38. The 7 mysterious preludes to the Russia-Trump probe
    Lee Smith, Real Clear Investigations

    [Ed. – The bottom line, as Smith’s article makes clear: none of them passes the smell test. In the attempts to subvert the Trump team, connections to Hillary, the Obama administration, an internationalist establishment — and RUSSIA — abound.]

    https://libertyunyielding.com/2018/06/26/the-7-mysterious-preludes-to-the-russia-trump-probe/

    The Federal Bureau of Investigation formally opened its Trump investigation after Western intelligence assets and Clinton-affiliated political operatives repeatedly approached the Trump campaign and tried but failed to damage it through associations with Russia, a growing body of evidence suggests.

    Before the FBI began investigating the Trump campaign in an operation code-named “Crossfire Hurricane,” there were at least seven different instances when campaign advisers were approached with Russia-related offers. Most of those contacts — including Donald Trump Jr.’s much-publicized meeting with a Russian lawyer and others in June 2016 — offered the prospect of information damaging to Donald Trump’s Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton.

    Two of these approaches were made by one U.S. government informant already publicly identified as such, Stefan Halper. Another was made by a man who swore in court that he had worked as an FBI informant. Two others were made by figures associated with Western intelligence agencies. Another two approaches included political operatives, one foreign, with ties to the Clintons.

    President Obama’s director of national intelligence, James Clapper, has asserted that dispatching Halper to follow the Trump campaign “protected” it from the Russians.

    But Mark Wauck, a former FBI agent with experience in such tactics, sees an effort at entrapment. “What appear to have been repeated attempts to implicate the Trump campaign, in some sort of quid pro quo arrangement with Russians who claimed to have ‘dirt’ on Hillary,” Wauck told RealClearInvestigations, “look like efforts to manufacture evidence against members of the Trump campaign or create pretexts to investigate it.”

    At the same time, in early spring, the Clinton campaign commissioned, through its law firm, the Washington, D.C.-based communications firm Fusion GPS to dig up dirt on the Trump campaign’s alleged ties to Russia. The result was the infamous 35-page dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele.

    “About 40 tents and 100-150 people were obstructing all entrances and exits. Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler has refused Portland police action against the protesters.” They are demanding that the Trump administration revoke its “zero tolerance” immigration policy.

    They have heckled employees trying to leave the building, laid down in the street and, when cameras are rolling, they break into their chant, “No more ICE. Shut down ICE.” All very civilized behavior.
