    Professor calls president’s backers ‘overt racists’ smoldering with ‘white racial resentment’A woman’s studies professor says that Trump supporters will demand that he be allowed to stay in office after his two terms are up and will foment a violent civil war to keep him in power.

    Julie Novkov, also the chairwoman of the political science department at the State University of New York at Albany, said that Mr. Trump’s supporters whom she calls “overt racists” smoldering with “white racial resentment,” will “provoke violence” when he leaves office no matter the circumstances.

  2. The Wahhaj Family Compound And Their Dem-Connected Father
    The open extremists operating in the Democratic Party’s midst.

    It turns out the man arrested for running a Muslim terrorist training compound in rural New Mexico is the son of an influential Democrat-connected jihadist imam who was close to the Blind Sheikh who orchestrated the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993 that left six people dead.

    Siraj Ibn Wahhaj Jr., who is 39 or 40, of Clayton County, Ga., was arrested after authorities found 11 hungry, filthy children living in squalid conditions in a remote part of New Mexico. Wahhaj, who has been charged with felony child abuse, had reportedly been training the children to commit school shootings. The remains of a three-year-old disabled boy, since identified as Wahhaj’s son, were discovered on the property which was filled with weapons. Two of Wahhaj’s sisters and two other adults were also arrested.

    Investigative reporter Paul Sperry reports that Wahhaj “has been on the radar of federal counterterrorism officials for the past 13 years on suspicion of jihadist activity.”

  3. Sarah Jeong and the Media Alt-Left
    When we talk about the alt-Left, we’re talking about the media.

    Ever since the New York Times decided to hire racist blogger Sarah Jeong, despite her history of hateful tweets about white people, “the world could get by just fine with zero white ppl and the thing stopping POC (people of color) is…a disinclination toward genocide?”, white women, men, heterosexuals and Christians, and then refused to part ways with her (unlike its treatment of previous hire, Quinn Norton, whom the left had accused of homophobia based on a few tweets, despite her being gay), the debate has been about all the wrong things.

    Jeong isn’t really the issue. Her racism is typical of an influential subset of the left.

    Some of the pro and anti Jeong essays briefly circle around the actual problem before quickly zooming away. Andrew Sullivan writes in his anti-Jeong essay of the “extent to which loathing of and contempt for ‘white people’ is now background noise on the left”. Vox’s Zack Beauchamp, wrote in his pro-Jeong essay that comments such as hers in the “the social justice left” about “white people” are typical.

    But what part of the “social justice left” or “left” is really producing Sarah Jeongs?

  4. The Spy Who Loved Feinstein
    During 20 years with the California Democrat, what information did the Chinese spy acquire?
    August 13, 2018
    Lloyd Billingsley

    “The leader of the Russia investigation, Dianne Feinstein, had a Chinese spy as her driver for 20 years,” President Trump told an Ohio rally on Saturday, August 4. That was the first time most Americans heard of this spy but the president was not breaking the news.

    In “How Silicon Valley Became a Den of Spies,” a July 27 Politico story, Zach Dorfman wrote, “Former intelligence officials told me that Chinese intelligence once recruited a staff member at a California office of U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein, and the source reported back to China about local politics. (A spokesperson for Feinstein said the office doesn’t comment on personnel matters or investigations, but noted that no Feinstein staffer in California has ever had a security clearance.)”

    On August 1, San Francisco Chronicle columnists Phillip Matier and Andrew Ross wrote a piece headlined “Feinstein had a Chinese spy connection she didn’t know about — her driver.”

    A “local source” confirmed that the FBI showed up at Feinstein’s office five years ago with news that her driver was being investigated for spying. Besides driving, the unnamed Chinese spy “also served as gofer in her San Francisco office and as a liaison to the Asian American community, even attending Chinese Consulate functions for the senator.”

  6. USA Today Runs Editorial Calling for Abolishing the Presidency
    August 13, 2018
    Daniel Greenfield

    Trump Derangement Syndrome has no natural stopping point. One grandiose act of vandalism is soon exceeded by another. The true resistance is in topping all previous acts of resistance.

    #AbolishICE? Nah. Abolish the presidency.

    Donald Trump is proof that the U.S. presidency is broken and democracy is in peril. It’s time to amend the Constitution and abolish the presidency.

    Well that escalated quickly.

    But if you guys abolish the presidency, how are you going to unilaterally nationalize health care, open the borders and claim control over all the water in the country in the name of the EPA?

    The Palestinian-American candidate has promised to fight for universal healthcare, equality and human rights.

  8. The Gulf States: The Weak Link in Sanctions on Iran

    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The US administration and Congress should address a major loophole in the sanctions regime: the robust financial and economic ties between Gulf States and their Iranian nemesis. This would contribute to Iran’s economic distress as well as its sense of isolation.

    As relations between the US and its European allies hit new lows, driven in part by their resistance to the Trump administration’s decision to renew sanctions against Iran, a major loophole in the sanctions regime – the robust financial and economic ties between Gulf States and their Iranian nemesis – is being largely overlooked.

    It is high time for the administration and Congress to tell the Arab Gulf States, which are probably the greatest beneficiaries of American might in the world today, that they have to get their economic dealings into line with their anti-Iranian rhetoric rather than undermine the sanctions, which are coming at considerable cost to American taxpayers and business interests.

    The US security umbrella is vital to the Gulf States’ very existence. Iraq, with its invasion of Kuwait in 1990, proved their vulnerability beyond any doubt. Kuwait was conquered in less than two days and would probably have been permanently incorporated into Saddam Hussein’s state had it not been for the US-led coalition that drove the Iraqis out.

    • It is always the same recipe,first ,in all of OUR literature because it is ours,we have white people taking the lead roles ,whom we can identify with,in films plays etc,then they rewrite the whole thing injecting pc rubbish with a white woman in the lead,(I remember the remake of The Tempest with a woman as prospero,it did not make sense),next we have a total commie rewrite which imposes a barely sentient retarded negro in the lead role who upholds the establishment credo,when for negroes nothing could be further from the truth,and no doubt the love interest will be a white trophy woman who will faun over this baboon,the idea is to trash our culture irredeemably.

    • It wont make one shred of difference whether they, the African blacks, were there or not and yes, it is well known that not one African tribe lived in or near Cape town upon the arrival of whites. In Australia the initial aborigines were exterminated on the mainland(surviving only in Tasmania) by the invading later ones with both being engaged in constant intertribal warfare. Both of these race were nomadic and the later ones brought such green “improvements” as fire hunting (which destroyed the great inland sea) and they moved to where the game was easy or to where the stronger enemy tribes pushed them. They were nomadic and were constantly on the move and land rights to ethnic aborigines is a JOKE! and all that has done is made not a few millionaires(they sell it off). The land rights bill was passed because in Torres Strait the Melanesian islanders lived in fishing villages and had gardens and did have land rights and under some idiotic bureaucratic convenience they and the aborigines were grouped together and the due rights of the TS islanders were extrapolated wrongly and illegally onto the mainlander aborigines including those who moved to Tasmania to claim “their rights”. So truth is TOTALLY irrelevant when it comes to blacks and lands as it is ONLY what the Leftist wish you to believe that matters.

    • A local tsunami should prove interesting. China’s imperial aims are no longer nascent but present in fact. This is a direct land grab and a threat to the Philippines who already have enough problems with muslims.

    • This video is right as far as it goes, what it doesn’t include is the string of pearls that China is using to try and acquire control of all of the sea approaches to India so they can control what is shipped to India. China is trying to seize control of the entire South China Sea and large portions of the Indian Ocean. They want the mineral resources in those regions and they want to control what is carried over those waters so they can dominate the other nations in that region. This desire to increase the are controlled by the Chinese Empire combined with the Obama administrations reducing the US military to pre WWII levels caused Japan to start rearming and to work to develop a South East Asian version of NATO with India, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia and other nations in that region to oppose China’s militaristic expansion. With the election of Donald Trump Japan has slowed its military build up but it did recent commission a Helicopter carrier that can be sued as a big deck command ship. This is causing China to have some misgivings about their actions but not enough to stop cause them to stop their expansionist course.

      Their push is being hampered by their bad economy and Donald Trump deciding to stop their looting of the US though unfair trade practices. His tariffs on China, Iran and the growing sanctions on Turkey and Russia have placed China and their allies in the positions of either pull back from their attacks on Western Civilization of face the very real probability of massive economic collapses that will force policital change and cultural reform in their nations. This is about the only viable alternative to the shooting war in the Mideast and the shooting war in the Far East that Steve Bannon was talking about.

    • Richard…many thanks! : )
      An academic was given a grant to research “aboriginal genocide” and he was about to publish 3 volumes which repudiated most of the lies about the “genocide” when he lost his grant. Volumes 1 and 3 I have but 2 was never published. It seems that proven truths upset far too many. Australia is as much under the leftist cosh as anywhere in the west.

    If only they knew the ghastly propaganda cajoling girls and women into veiling: http://www.faizaneraza.org/islamic-article-read.php?article_id=31
    Horrifying Punishments of Unveiling
    Muhammad Ilyas Qadri Rizvi sends, in the honour of preacher of Dawat-e-Islami Al-Haj Muhammad Aslam Qadri Rizvi’s “mother”, a salaam full of affection from the beautiful fragrant mornings of Maccah Mukkarrama, and pleasant and blessed evenings of Madeenah Munawwara :
    I received your letter in which you have ordered me to write something for our daughters-in-law, daughters, and Islamic sisters which would encourage them emotionally to adopt the practice of veiling. Seriously, now-a-days it seems that amongst our Islamic sisters unveiling is becoming a very common practice and it seems that the concept of unveiling is not considered a sin anymore Even though unveiling is haram (a sin of the highest decree). In the Holy Quran, a lot of emphasis is put on the concept of veiling. It is said in the Holy Quran: And remain stationed in your houses and be not unveiling of the former days of ignorance. Did you see? Quran orders women to stay in their homes and not to practice unveiling. And ah! Our mothers and sisters.
    A HEART SHATTERING INCIDENT:
    I think it was the last Friday of Shaaban Al-Moazzam Hijri 1410, I was preaching at a very big congregation held by “Dawat-e-Islami”, at the night in a ground of Korangi, Karachi. There was a very frightened young man amongst the people. He said, under an oth, that one of his relative’s daughter ( a young lady) died all of a sudden. After the burial when we returned, her father realised that his handbag, which contained some very important documents, had been buried along-side his daughter. After a lot of consultation and thinking we decided to go back and retrieve the documents. We had just started digging the grave when suddenly, due to fright, we all screamed. Because the daughter whom we had buried around four hours ago with proper kafan (cloth wrapped round the dead body), was sitting in the shape of bow (bow & arrow) and her kafan was torn. Ah! Her feet were tied by her hair on her head and a lot of small frightening animals were clustering all around her body !!! After seeing such a horrifying site, we could not utter a word and we did not have the courage of getting the handbag out of the grave. We covered her grave as fast as we could and then ran away. On reaching home, I asked my relatives: “After all what was it that this girl did? “So they told me that she did nothing unusual or wrong except that like all other girls, she practiced unveiling. Just a few days before her death, there was a wedding in the family. Therefore, she had cut her hair according to the latest fashion and attended the wedding all dressed up in tight clothes, and make-up done on accordingly.
    FEEL SORRY FOR YOU DELICATE BODY:
    Ah! The story of the fashion-inspired unlucky girl is so saddening. Are our Islamic sisters not going to learn a lesson of repentance from this incident? Are they still not going to avoid fashion and quit practising unveiling? Start feeling sorry for your delicate and fragile body and start worrying about how to save your body from the severe punishments of the grave and even more severe punishments of hell. Now, I am writing a portion of a long Hadiths, starting the punishments of women acting contrary to Islamic laws Read the same and be scared from the wrath of Allah.
    HORRIFYING PUNISHMENTS OF UNVEILING:
    Hazrat Ali said that once he and Bibi Fatima went to visit the Holy Prophet. The Holy Prophet was weeping. They inquired the reason that had made the Holy Prophet weep. He replied: “On the night of the Ascension (Mairaj), I saw the punishments being given to some women, today I was remembering those scenes. This is why I am worried”. They asked, “Please tell us what did you see?” He replied: “I saw a woman hanging by her hair and her brain was boiling. (This was the punishment of that woman who did not hide her hair by covering her head from men). I saw one woman hanging by her tongue with her hands tied against her back. (She used to hurt her husband’s feelings by her tongue i.e. speaking). I saw one woman with both her hands and feet tied towards her forehead; and snakes and scorpions were attacking her. (She used to go out of her house without the permission of her husband and she did not clean up herself properly by taking a shower after menses and child birth bleeding). (Those Islamic sisters who use nail polish should learn a lesson from this. Keep in mind! Nail polish sticks to the surface of the nail hence, ablution and bath is not made.) One woman was eating her own flesh and there was fire burning under her. (She used to dress up and apply make-up in order to attract attention of males and she used to speak bad about people behind their backs). One woman was seen having her body being cut by a scissor made out of fire. (This was the punishment for showing her body and private parts to other men). One woman had a face of pig and the body of a donkey, and she was being punished in different styles. (She used to tell lies and make false accusations). There was a woman who looked like a dog, snakes and scorpions were entering into her front-side and coming out from her backside. And angels were hitting her with a hammer made up of fire. (She used to have an attitude problem towards her husband).
    LIFE IS VERY SHORT:
    Dear mother! Read these punishments again and again, and be frightened by the wrath of Allah Life is very short. Before you even realise, it will come to an end. Very soon, all those people who listen to us or care about us will take our dead body to the graveyard on their shoulders and bury it. If Allah and His dear Prophet get annoyed by us, then we would not be able to face severe and horrifying punishments in the grave and as well as on the Day of Judgement. Let us pray that Allah forgives us and becomes happy with us. Please, for your own sake, follow the practice of veiling and, also strictly, advise your daughters-in-law and daughters to make it a habit of practicing this custom of veiling.
    WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
    Just as women are not allowed to come out unveiled in front of men (strangers), the same way there is an order of veiling in front of cousins. No matter how close or how distant cousins, the veil has to be there. As a matter of fact, there is a very strict emphasis on the concept of veiling between brother-in-law and sister-in-law (that is, a woman and her husband’s brothers, and a man and his wife’s sisters). There is an order of veiling even in those cases where you make someone your brother or sister (without blood relation, that is, not same parents) and even between a teacher and students ( a saint and his female followers). When a child starts knowing the difference between male and female, then veiling between the child and the woman should start, even if the child was adopted.
    YES!
    But if the woman has breast-feeded the child then he becomes mahrem (someone with whom marriage is not allowed due to having the same parents, or same father, or same mother). When ever it becomes necessary to come out of the house, the woman should veil in such a manner that from her head to her toe-nail, she must be covered and the cloth should be such that her body cannot be looked through by others. It is haram (a sin of the highest degree) to wear bangles with the help of a man (non mahrem men), especially if he puts it on the woman’s hand. May Allah give the muslims the proper love of practicing the custom of veiling.
    i) “Oh my sisters! Keep on veiling always
    ii) Do not go out and wander in the Streets
    iii) Otherwise listen! When you go in your grave
    iv) You will scream by looking at the Scorpions and snakes.”
    (These are the translation of the verses of the Urdu poem)
