Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We muse use it while we can.

  1. Brunei set to introduce death by stoning for adultery and gay sex (telegraph, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/03/28/brunei-set-introduce-death-stoning-adultery-gay-sex/

    “Adultery and gay sex will be punishable by stoning to death and the limbs of convicted thieves will be amputated under a new law set to come into effect from next week in the tiny southeast Asian kingdom of Brunei.

    A new strict Sharia penal code is to be enforced from next Wednesday defying heavy criticism that has kept the brutal provisions on hold for the last four years.

    Homosexuality is already illegal in the former British protectorate, but now it will become a capital offence. The law only applies to Muslims and punishment will also be “witnessed by a group of Muslims.”

    Human rights groups who have lobbied against the enshrining of “cruel and inhuman punishments” reacted with horror at the decision to plough ahead with the extreme aspects of the penal code.

    Amnesty International demanded an “immediate halt” to plans for vicious punishments so “heinous” that they allowed for the amputation of children’s limbs.

    “The international community must urgently condemn Brunei’s move to put these cruel penalties into practice,” said Rachel Chhoa-Howard, Amnesty’s Brunei Researcher.

    “To legalise such cruel and inhuman penalties is appalling of itself. Some of the potential ‘offences’ should not even be deemed crimes at all, including consensual sex between adults of the same gender,” she added.

    The tiny, resource-rich sultanate has a population of just over 450,000 and is located on the island of Borneo, next to the more moderate Islamic nations of Indonesia and Malaysia.

    In comparison to its neighbours, Brunei has grown conservative in recent years, including banning the sale of alcohol and introducing stiff penalties for open and excessive Christmas celebrations, for fear that its Muslim population could be led astray.

    There was widespread international condemnation when Brunei first announced the roll-out of the Sharia penal code – an Islamic legal system which prescribes strict corporal punishments – in 2014.

    The implementation of the law has since been delayed as officials work out the practical details under heavy opposition from rights groups.

    A notice on Brunei’s Attorney General’s Chambers dated December 29 last year quietly announced that the provisions would take effect on April 3.

    However, a religious affairs ministry spokesman said on Wednesday that Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, Brunei’s leader, was expected to make an announcement on that date about the enforcement of Sharia.

    “Only after the event we will know regarding the date of the implementation of the new laws,” he told AFP.”

His arguments are typically flawless and it smooths into manageable entertainment what might otherwise be alternately dreary or angering news.

    • Excellent video, Rita (and well worth repeating)!

      The narrator makes a crucial point with respect to how Islamic terrorism intentionally permeates every level of (inadequately defended) society. I have long maintained that Israel is a microcosm of the global macro-scale conflict with Muslims.

      Permitting widespread immigration throughout the West has resulting in the importation of this constant state of apprehension.

      There isn’t a behavioral psychologist alive that will deny how constant repression results in powerful compulsions or neuroses. Islam’s own perpetual internecine slaughter is standing proof of this warping effect. This obscenity was borne out in all its intentional agony (precisely according to Islamic plan) at Christchurch’s al Noor mosque.

      To his eternal credit, Senator Faser Anning has had the requisite scrotes to roll aside the Sisyphean Multiculturalist rock that Leftists use for concealing all protests by modern displaced indigenes.

      The disingenuous may feel free to squeal about how Caucasian culture replaced aboriginal societies in Australia and North America, but that is to judge centuries-old actions through the lens of modern morality. That this flogging is a favorite tool of the Cultural Marxist should come as no surprise.

      Morally leveraging First World guilt with these scratched and fogged Communist optics is the only to distract attention away from the fact that aggressive external demographic displacement was business as usual for all of Earth’s preceding history.

      THE KEY DIFFERENCE BEING that: Never before has this sort of sociological genocide been carried out from within a culture. The stunning Aztec mass surrender to Cortés had more basis in objective reality than this outright treason by Postmodernists as they cravenly surrender Western Civilization to self-extinction.

      Again, throughout history, all biological life has displaced (and just as frequently exterminated) other competing species of any and every stripe. The key difference being that: No other species on record has so vigorously sought its own self-destruction than the virulently anti-industrial PoMo Progs with their unprecedented, voluntary, and willful ruination of Western Civilization.

      That the entire Caucasian race will perish in this Cultural Genocide is just icing on the cake for these murderous virtue signalers.

      Even fewer are will to admit that Christchurch was the beginning of blowback against Islam caused by its constant predation and barbarity. All of these same externally induced, powerful compulsions or neuroses, will more likely result in the catastrophic extinction of Islam (if only by its own cretinous hand).

      There is no imaginable way that the world’s non-Islamic population will tolerate this sort of constant Muslim antagonism. The tipping point WILL be reached and a hidebound, unconcilliatory Islam shall be consigned to history’s dustbin.

      It is impossible for Islam to do two critical things:

      • Rapidly secure a sufficient number of Islamically-controlled nuclear weapons needed for holding the outside world at bay long enough to impose global sharia.

      • STOP MAKING TOO MANY ENEMIES TOO FAST.

      Lobbing in such niggling little deal-breakers as taqiyya, abrogation, and genocide makes all of this an exercise in futility. Left unchanged in its current state, Islam will cease to exist within the near future.

      A century is too wide a window of opportunity for Islam to precipitate it own self-destruction. In this respect, Iran—with its willingness to sacrifice itself in the name of Antisemitic genocide—is a macro-example of the global self-immolation that Muslims seem to anticipate with such relish.

    • From Anning’s letter: The fact is, that multiculturalism is simply minority tribalism turbocharged by the Left.

      KEEPER!!!

      Thank you so very much, James Boom. Eeyore, please consider this letter in its entirety for page one. The right honorable Fraser Anning “gets it.” Never has, Tyranny of the Minority” taken on a more dire cast.

      Few, anywhere on this planet, have the courage or moral fortitude to so eloquently shine such brilliant, disinfecting sunlight on immigration-based deconstruction of the West.

      Finishing his letter, there were times when I almost began to wonder if Anning had taken his talking points from this website. That is meant as no small praise, Eeyore and fellow netizens.

        • Anning’s clarity (both moral and verbal)—in either of his letters, but especially with this one—is at Hugh Fitzgeraldesque levels of awe-inspiring memeification (just made that word up).

          In the space most bloviators reserve for mere rebuttal, Anning immediately intercepts this repeated “blame-the-victim” accusation in mid-air and takes it straight back to his own original words. He crosses the goal line without breaking stride—or much in the way of an intellectual sweat, from his convincing mien.

          Come to think of it, facing him in a debate might not be an altogether over-pleasant experience, however instructive.

          Be that as it may—for what deservedly can be called a one-page letter—the goodly Senator takes his political foes and uses them to mop all floors in their little skyscraper of $h!t.

          Good on ‘im! If only more would do the same.

    • Terrific letter!
      The craven politician to whom it was addressed is totally unworthy, but also irrelevant.
      It’s the most cogent statement about the political class I’ve read yet.

      • The craven politician to whom it was addressed is totally unworthy, but also irrelevant.

        Why, from your tone, one almost has to think that those last two adjectives are somehow related…

        It’s the most cogent statement about the political class I’ve read yet.

        Agreed. It’s like someone irrigated Pat Condell with black coffee, told him only the Queen’s English was allowed, and then gave him a minute thirty for his usual full-length YT rant.

        More to the point, like yourself yucki, rarely have I seen someone connect straightaway so many normally ill-illumed dots and—with diplomatic finesse yet appropriately crisp deprecation—squarely lay the aromatic cowpie of blame before those rutbag bastards who so desperately deserve it.

  6. Erdogan: Trump Behaving Like a ‘Bully Boy’ (sputniknews, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/201903281073626301-turkey-trump-erdogan-golan-heights/

    “The Turkish president has continued his verbal offensive against his US counterpart after Donald Trump went against the UN’s position and formally recognised Israeli sovereignty over the strategically important Golan Heights, which Israel captured from Syria decades ago.

    Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused the US of escalating tensions instead of contributing to peace by recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, which was occupied by Israel during the Six-Day War. He also took aim at the US President personally for signing the controversial proclamation.

    “Unfortunately, Trump is behaving like a bully boy”, Erdogan said in an interview with Turkey’s A Haber broadcaster, as cited by the AFP news agency, also noting that “He did the same on Jerusalem”.

    Erdogan has also pointed out that with this decision, the Trump administration had gone against the UN, which declared Israel’s proclamation of sovereignty over the Golan Heights “null and void and without international legal effect”.

    “How can you do this despite the United Nations? What are you doing? Being at the helm of a state like the US does not give you such a right”, Erdogan said.

    The Turkish president has already denounced the US move, saying it would destabilise the Middle East and result in “a new crisis” and branding the recognition a “gift” to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu amid the bribery and fraud allegations ahead of the elections….”

  7. Exclusive: Trump Campaign Adviser Calls for Investigation Into Origins of Russia Collusion Narrative

    • zero hedge – Trump: I Plan To Declassify And Release All FISA Docs

      President Trump, in an exclusive wide-ranging interview Wednesday night with Fox News’ “Hannity,” vowed to release the full and unredacted Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants and related documents used by the FBI to probe his campaign, saying he wants to “get to the bottom” of how the long-running Russia collusion narrative began.

      Trump told anchor Sean Hannity that his lawyers previously had advised him not to take that dramatic step out of fear that it could be considered obstruction of justice.

      “I do, I have plans to declassify and release. I have plans to absolutely release,” Trump said. “I have some very talented people working for me, lawyers, they really didn’t want me to do it early on.”

      Trump also accused FBI officials of committing “treason” — slamming former FBI Director James Comey as a “terrible guy,” former CIA Director John Brennan as potentially mentally ill, and Democrat House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff as a criminal.

      Redacted versions of FISA documents already released have revealed that the FBI extensively relied on documents produced by Christopher Steele, an anti-Trump British ex-spy working for a firm funded by the Hillary Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee, to surveil Trump aide Carter Page.

      At least one senior DOJ official had apparent concerns Steele was unreliable, according to text messages exclusively obtained last week by Fox News.

    A sword-wielding suspect was fatally shot by police and two officers were struck by gunfire during an incident at a Church of Scientology in Inglewood Wednesday afternoon, police said.

    The incident was reported at the church about 3:30 p.m. at 315 Market St., Inglewood Police Lt. Neal Cochran told KTLA.

    A man pulled up to the church in a white Bentley and entered with what police described as a samurai sword, then began making a scene, officials said.

    Police were called and there was a confrontation with the suspect in the lobby, police said.

    The suspect was struck in the head by gunfire, and the officers were shot, one in the hand and one in the arm.

    • zero hedge – Adam Schiff Furious After GOP Calls For His Resignation In “Explosive” Hearing

      Democratic House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, who made Donald Trump’s now debunked Russiagate “witch hunt” his one mission in life, furiously pushed back as all nine Committee Republicans demanded his resignation, defending his past comments by lighting into the president and his family and campaign over its contacts with Russia.

      Calls from Republicans and president Trump for the Russiagate-obsessed Schiff to resign as head of the House Intelligence Committee have been loud in the days following the release of the four-page Mueller report summary. And on Thursday, the call was made right to the Congressman’s face in what Mediate described was an “explosive” clash, and The Hill dubbed a “striking display.”

      At the start of the House intel hearing on Thursday morning, Rep. Mike Conaway (R-TX) called for Schiff to step down — a call which he said was supported by all nine Republican members of the committee.

      “Your actions, both past, and present are incompatible with your duty of the chairman of this committee — which alone, in the House of Representatives — has the obligation and authority to provide effective oversight of the U.S. Intelligence community,” Conaway said. “As such we have no faith in your ability to discharge your duties in a manner consistent with your Constitutional responsibility and urge your immediate resignation as chairman of the committee. Mr. Chairman, this letter is signed by all nine members of the Republican side of the committee, and I ask unanimous consent that it be entered into the record at today’s hearing.”

  12. Censorship pays: China’s state newspaper expands lucrative online scrubbing business

    BEIJING, March 28 (Reuters) – People.cn, the online unit of China’s influential People’s Daily, is boosting its numbers of human internet censors backed by artificial intelligence to help firms vet content on apps and adverts, capitalising on its unmatched Communist Party lineage.

    Demand for online censoring services provided by Shanghai-listed People.cn has soared since last year after China tightened its already strict online censorship rules.

    As a unit of the People’s Daily – the ruling Communist Party’s mouthpiece – it is seen by clients as the go-to online censor. Investors concur, lifting shares in People.cn by around 240 percent since the start of 2019.

    “The biggest advantage of People.cn is its precise grasp of policy trends,” said An Fushuang, an independent analyst based in Shenzhen.

    In recent years, China has shut tens of thousands of websites and social media accounts that contained what it said was illegal content as well as “vulgar” and pornographic material.

    Tibet, Taiwan, the 1989 crackdown on Tiananmen Square, and even local government scandals, are also sensitive topics prone to censorship.

  13. Erdogan Blames US for Triggering 2018 Economic Crisis in Turkey (sputniknews, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/201903281073623755-turkey-economy-us-crisis/

    “Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday accused Western countries — primarily the United States — of triggering the economic crisis that Turkey faced last year.

    “Attempts by a range of Western countries, most importantly the United States, to put pressure on Ankara were behind the August 2018 manipulations in the Turkish currency market”, Erdogan said at a meeting with media representatives, as quoted by the Anadolu news agency.

    Relations between Turkey and the United States escalated last August after US President Donald Trump authorised the doubling of previously imposed import tariffs on Turkish aluminium and steel to 20 percent and 50 percent, respectively. The US move resulted in the Turkish lira hitting a historic low. Turkey responded by increasing tariffs on 22 types of US goods worth $533 million.”

  14. EU to Boost Border Security by Adding 10,000 Personnel Amid Migrant Crisis (sputniknews, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://sputniknews.com/europe/201903281073625000-eu-border-protection-security/

    “Negotiators from the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union agreed on Thursday to strengthen the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex) by setting up a new standing corps of 10,000 staff in order to secure EU borders, the European Parliament said in a press release.

    “The European Border and Coast Guard law will overhaul Europe’s border management. It will mean an additional 10,000 border and coast guards for Europe; more efficient returns; more tools to fight crime and will serve to allay security and crime concerns and aid in our migration strategy. Europe’s citizens were looking to us to deliver and we have, in record time. This is a win for Europe”, European Parliament member Roberta Metsola said, as quoted in the press release.

    According to the release, the new corps will be tasked with carrying out border control upon a request from EU member states and with fighting cross-border crime. It will also include a rapid reaction unit for urgent tasks.

    The corps will be launched in 2021 and will have 5,000 operational staff, while it is set to become fully operational by 2027, and the staff number is expected to double by then.

    The proposed reforms will enable Frontex, established in 2004, to support return procedures by identifying non-EU nationals illegally staying in EU states. Frontex will also strengthen its cooperation with the EU Asylum Agency and with non-EU countries.
    Frontex is expected to have closer ties with the European Parliament and parliaments of EU member states.

    The text of the proposal now has to be formally approved by the European Parliament’s Civil Liberties Committee, the European Parliament as a whole and the Council.”

  15. Nine arrested in Thailand for posting election ‘fake news’

    Nine people have been arrested in Thailand for spreading “fake news” on Facebook with posts about sacked election officials and bogus ballots in the wake of controversial polls in the kingdom.

    Junta-ruled Thailand held its first vote since a 2014 coup on Sunday, with a military-backed party and its main rival linked to a self-exiled billionaire both claiming the right to govern.

    Full official results have not yet been released but questions are mounting over election irregularities that may have skewed initial numbers.

    A Thai official said Thursday that nine people were arrested for sharing fake news on Facebook claiming two election commissioners had been sacked and that 600,000 illegitimate ballots were mixed into the vote count.

  16. The US Military Is Creating the Future of Employee Monitoring

    A new AI-enabled pilot project aims to sense “micro changes” in the behavior of people with top-secret clearances. If it works, it could be the future of corporate HR.

    The U.S. military has the hardest job in human resources: evaluating hundreds of thousands of people for their ability to protect the nation’s secrets. Central to that task is a question at the heart of all labor relations: how do you know when to extend trust or take it away?

    The office of the Defense Security Service, or DSS, believes artificial intelligence and machine learning can help. Its new pilot project aims to sift and apply massive amounts of data on people who hold or are seeking security clearances. The goal is not just to detect employees who have betrayed their trust, but to predict which ones might — allowing problems to be resolved with calm conversation rather than punishment.

    If the pilot proves successful, it could provide a model for the future of corporate HR. But the concept also affords employers an unprecedented window into the digital lives of their workers, broaching new questions about the relationship between employers, employees, and information in the age of big data and AI.

  17. Migrant crisis: Border Force stop two boats at Dover -day after 14 people found in Channel (express, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1106493/uk-migrant-crisis-dover-kent-boats-asylum-seekers-police-english-channel

    “TWO boats carrying up to 19 migrants have been found off the coast of Kent a day after 14 people including two children were brought ashore.

    A Border Force team spotted the vessels sailing towards Britain this morning and alerted Kent Police at around 4.15am. Police confirmed they were made aware of the discovery near the Port of Dover and added officers were not needed at the scene. The BBC reported the pair of boats in the English Channel were carrying 19 people. The Home Office has been contacted for comment.

    The discovery comes after 11 men, one woman and two children were found trying to enter the UK illegally on Wednesday.

    Authorities intercepted a small boat in the early hours of yesterday morning and brought a group of Iranian and Iraqi nationals ashore where they were assessed by medical personnel.

    They were then passed to immigrations officials to be interviewed.

    A Border Force cutter found the boat near Folkestone at around 1.20am.

    The discovery was the fourth time in eight days that a group was caught trying to enter the UK illegally.

    And it came as a campaign was launched by government agencies to encourage the public to report any suspicious boat activities.

    The poster says: “Seen something suspicious? Don’t ignore it. Share it.”

    The multi-agency approach aims to tackle Britain’s growing problem with illegal immigration.

    Kent coastal towns of Dover and Deal are targeted by the Project Kraken campaign run by the UK Border Force, National Crime Agency and Kent Police.

    The route between Calais and Dover is the world’s most used shipping lane and is frequented by boats carrying migrants during periods of mild weather.

    MP for Dover and Deal, Charlie Elphicke, responded to the campaign by tweeting: “Better to focus on the root cause of the problem – border security on the French side of the Channel.

    “These dangerous crossings will continue as long as they succeed.

    “The Channel should be made a joint security zone with 24/7 aerial surveillance.”

    On Monday, seven people believed to be from Eritrea were detained by harbour police in Teeside.

    One child was among the group and was taken into the care of social services.”

  19. Taiwan mulls death penalty for drunk driving

    Taiwan plans to ramp up punishments for those who cause a fatal accident while drunk driving, including the death penalty for the most egregious cases, sparking an outcry from abolition and rights groups.

    The cabinet on Thursday approved a draft amendment to the Criminal Code that would make death by drunk driving an indictable murder offence, potentially punishable by death if the deed is deemed “intentional”, officials said.

    The proposal needs parliamentary approval but comes after a spate of high profile deaths that have generated widespread outrage.

    Currently the maximum sentence in Taiwan for causing a death while drunk behind the wheel is 10 years.

    The new proposal would increase jail sentences for repeat offenders who commit a new offence within five years of their first conviction.

    UPDATED 7:05 AM PT — Thursday, March 28, 2019

    President Trump said the Russians would much rather have Hillary Clinton sitting in the Oval Office than him. In his first interview since the release of the Mueller report’s findings, the president explained that if the Russians ever had anything on him — “it would have come out long ago.”

    President Trump also reiterated his tough stance on Moscow, pointing to the U.S. knocking the country from its place as a global leader in oil production. He said under a Hillary Clinton presidency there would be no competition with Russia, because the U.S. would not be allowed to drill for oil.

    Maltese soldiers seize small tanker hijacked by migrants, vessel docks at Valletta

    VALLETTA (Reuters) – A small tanker that was hijacked by migrants off Libya docked in Malta’s port of Valletta on Thursday after Maltese special forces took control of the vessel, Reuters witnesses said.

    Cargo ship Elhiblu 1 had picked up 108 migrants stranded at sea on Wednesday, some of whom then hijacked the vessel when it became clear that it planned to take them back to Libya.

    “Two men have been charged with offences, including rape, over an attack on a group of British schoolgirls and their teacher in Ghana.

    The UK pupils were on a trip to the Africa when armed men broke into their accommodation on December 8.

    At gunpoint, the teenagers and their teacher were seriously sexually assaulted and their possessions were stolen.

    A security guard was shot and seriously injured after trying to stop the attack.

    Ghanaian police have now charged two men.

    Ishmael Akyene, 34, a Ghanaian national, is accused of 14 counts of robbery, one count of rape, one count of conspiracy to rape, one count of possession of a firearm, one count of possession of an instrument intended for unlawful entry and one count of money laundering.

    Daniel Akpan, 29, a Nigerian national, faces the same charges except he is accused of two counts of rape.

    Both men were remanded in custody in Ghana.

    UK and Ghanaian police are working to find a third suspect.”

  27. Maltese armed forces storm merchant ship ‘hijacked by migrants’ in Mediterranean (telegraph, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/03/27/rescued-migrants-hijack-merchant-vessel-mediterranean-avoid/

    “Maltese armed forces have boarded a merchant vessel that was allegedly hijacked by migrants after they were rescued off the coast of Libya.

    Five of the migrants have now been arrested, accused of forcing the captain of the oil tanker to cede control “through coercive action” and ordering it to alter course, Maltese government sources said.

    The 108 migrants consist of 77 men, 19 women and 12 children.

    Maltese authorities established communications with the captain of the oil tanker El Hiblu 1 when it was about 30 nautical miles away from Malta and proceeding towards the island.

    “The captain repeatedly stated that he was not in control of the vessel and that he and his crew were being forced and threatened by a number of migrants to proceed to Malta.”

    A Maltese patrol vessel stopped the tanker from entering Maltese waters. A special forces unit was then dispatched to board the tanker and hand over control of the ship to the captain.

    The special operations unit was backed up by a patrol vessel, two fast interceptor craft and a helicopter.

    “The tanker, her crew and all migrants are being escorted by the Armed Forces of Malta to Boiler Wharf (in Valletta) to be handed over to the police for further investigations,” Maltese authorities said.

    The intervention came after migrants hijacked a merchant ship that rescued them off the coast of Libya and ordered it to head towards Italy, the Italian government said on Wednesday.

    Matteo Salvini, the country’s hardline interior minister, condemned the asylum seekers as “pirates”.

    But human rights groups said they were trying to escape the “hell” of detention camps in Libya and should be directed towards a safe port.

    The El Hiblu 1 rescued the migrants from a sinking boat north of Libya and intended to take them back there, according to the Italian interior minister.

    The Turkish-owned vessel was six nautical miles from the port of Tripoli when the migrants reportedly forced the 12-man crew to turn around and start sailing north.

    “They are not shipwrecked migrants but pirates. They should know that they will only see Italy with a telescope”, said Mr Salvini, who is also deputy prime minister and head of the anti-immigration League party. “I tell the pirates, forget Italy.”

    Asylum seekers are terrified of being sent back to Libya because of the inhuman treatment they are subjected to in detention centres, some of them run by trafficking gangs…”

    DOJ strikes deal with well-connected ex-Feinstein aide accused of doxxing Republicans
    By Daily Caller News Foundation March 27, 2019

    A former Senate aide charged with doxxing Republican senators and extorting a witness reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors in Washington after his wealthy and well-connected family brought in experts to talk about his mental health and the private supervision they could provide him.

    A judge signaled that Jackson Cosko had allegedly taken large quantities of sensitive information from the Senate, but banned media from hearing the details. A hearing had been scheduled for Thursday, but on Tuesday, the court canceled it and indicated that a deal had been struck behind the scenes. A plea agreement hearing, where the deal is to be officially signed, was set for April 5.

    During Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s September 2018 confirmation hearing, Cosko — a former IT aide who once managed Democratic New Hampshire Sen. Maggie Hassan’s office computer accounts — allegedly posted to Wikipedia the home addresses of Republican senators who supported the Supreme Court justice.

    Ocasio-Cortez launches ‘shaming’ campaign against bank funding for businesses she doesn’t like
    By Jeff Dunetz March 27, 2019

    The last time liberals forced banks to implement their policy was when they forced banks into subprime lending. That led directly to the near-collapse of the banking system. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the new star of the Democratic Party, is looking to make the same mistake. She is forcing banks to implement her socialist agenda

    The New York Democratic-Socialist has revealed how she intends to eliminate our borders, take away our guns, punish “the rich,” and implement her destructive global warming “Green New Deal” policies, all without passing a single law through Congress. Along with fellow radical leftists, AOC is trying to shame the lenders into pushing their socialist policies for some of the country’s most divisive issues: climate change, gun violence, and immigration.

    Progressives have been waging an increasingly virulent culture war against conservatives ideas and legal products in the U.S. by putting pressure on the private sector. And sometimes they’re winning.

    The reason the left has resorted to this public shaming campaign is that, at long last, they’ve realized they will not get Congress to implement socialism, and they have to find a different way.

    https://libertyunyielding.com/2019/03/27/ocasio-cortez-launches-shaming-campaign-against-bank-funding-for-businesses-she-doesnt-like/

    • AOC and her friends are willing to, probably eager to destroy the US to create their socialist utopia. Actions like the ones she using to force the banks to once again move to the ragged edge of collapse are going to me major campaign issues. Campaign issues the Propaganda Media will not broadcast.

      • AOC and her friends are willing to, probably eager to destroy the US to create their socialist utopia.

        For AOC and her ilk,merely destroying America is an act that creates “their socialist utopia.” With no USA to intervene, Venezuela-style implosions can become the norm instead of a worrisome exception.

  30. Homosexuals, Radical Feminists Protest Verona’s Pro-Family Congress (breitbart, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/03/28/gays-radical-feminists-protest-veronas-pro-family-congress/

    “Busloads of leftist agitators are descending on the northern Italian city of Verona to protest the year’s largest international pro-family event, scheduled to take place March 29-31.

    The 13th annual World Congress of Families is predicted to be the largest in its history, and over a thousand journalists from around the world have already been accredited to cover the event, which is conceived as a celebration of traditional marriage, the family, and the right to life from conception to natural death.

    Although the Congress officially begins on Friday, on Wednesday, groups of protesters were already demonstrating in Verona, and a number of counter-events have been planned for the weekend: one organized by radical feminists and another by Italy’s biggest LGBT group.

    The feminist group “Non una di meno” has organized a demonstration titled “Verona, Transfeminist City” with speakers from international feminism such as Marta Dillon of Argentina, Eva von Redecker of Berlin’s Humboldt University, and Adriana Zaharijevic from the University of Belgrade.

    “Verona once again presents itself as a laboratory for national political experimentation and the attack on abortion and the rights of women and LGBT subjectivity is the privileged ground on which the political right and pro-life movements have come together,” event organizers have stated.

    Arcigay, Italy’s most representative pro-LGBT group, responsible for organizing gay pride marches around the country, has convoked its own protest event in Verona for Saturday.

    “We are stunned that this container, which carries the worst homo-trans-phobic and misogynistic thought, is arriving in Italy, the first Western European country to host it. This is an unprecedented, frightening fact that does not bode well for the recognition of human and civil rights,” said Arcigay’s General Secretary Gabriele Piazzoni.

    Borrowing from Hillary Clinton, leftist Italian media have labeled those attending the pro-family Congress a “list of deplorables,” calling pro-life and pro-family advocates “neofascists” and “homophobes.”

    According to Brian Brown, president of the International Organization for the Family and a key figure behind the Congress, the vehemence of the protests is an encouraging sign for the pro-family and pro-life movements around the world.

    “There is so much resistance because the tide is starting to turn,” Mr. Brown told Breitbart News. “After decades of being told that the family was archaic or a hindrance to progress, more and more people are realizing that the breakdown of the family has been an unmitigated disaster.”

    Things are different now than they were even a decade ago, Brown asserted, which explains the desperation of radical leftists.

    “Around the world, even in the heart of Europe there is a growing movement to protect and support the family. That’s why we called this year’s World Congress of Families Wind of Change,” Brown said. “The beginnings of a major change in direction are starting. It’s up to us to help that movement grow.””

  31. Europarl Calls For ‘Reparations’ to Fight ‘Structural Racism’ Against Africans in EU (breitbart, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/03/28/europarl-reparations-racism-africans-eu/

    “The European Parliament has demanded bloc-wide action including “reparations” to fight “structural racism” which manifests in people of African descent in Europe getting lower school grades and increased police scrutiny, according to Brussels.

    In what was described as a “landmark” resolution passed on Tuesday with 535 in favour to 80 votes against, and 44 abstentions, EU member states were ordered “to develop anti-racism policies and stop discrimination in the fields of education, housing, health, criminal justice, political participation and migration”.

    “In light of increasing afrophobic attacks, MEPs call on the European Commission and EU member states to acknowledge the racist, discriminatory and xenophobic suffering of Afro-Europeans, and offer proper protection against these inequalities to ensure that hate crimes are suitably investigated, prosecuted and sanctioned,” EU Parliament said in a statement.

    “MEPs condemn the mistreatment of people of African descent in police custody, citing the numerous violent incidents and deaths that have occurred while in custody. They also note the frequent use of racial and ethnic profiling in criminal law enforcement, counter-terrorism measures and immigration control, and urge member states to end this practice.”

    Calling on Brussels to establish a dedicated team of officials focused on combating ‘Afrophobia’, and to adopt “a workforce diversity and inclusion strategy” to boost the proportion of staff with an African background in its workforce, the resolution also orders the Commission to raise spending on taxpayer-funded programmes dedicated to helping EU residents with African origins.

    In addition, it demands reparations, and that countries across Europe ensure every child receives “comprehensive” schooling on slavery and colonialism, in the context of Africa.

    “The resolution encourages EU institutions and member states to address and rectify past injustices and crimes against humanity, perpetrated in the name of European colonialism. These historic crimes still have present-day negative consequences for people of African descent,” alleges the statement.

    “MEPs suggest carrying out reparations, such as apologising publicly and return stolen artefacts to their countries of origin. Parliament also calls on EU countries to declassify their colonial archives, as well as to present a comprehensive perspective on colonialism and slavery in the educational curricula.”

    It adds: “Approximately 15 million people of African descent currently live in Europe. They face persistent discrimination and are subject to deeply rooted negative stereotyping.

    “Evidence suggests that Afro-European children receive lower grades at school than their white counterparts, and their rate of early school leaving is markedly higher.”

    The resolution was drawn up by Congolese-born MEP and pro-mass migration activist, Cécile Kyenge, who last year argued that racism in Europe must be combated by “assisting” native EU citizens to come to terms with “the change of population” she claimed would be an inevitable part of globalisation.

    MEPs’ signing of the resolution came shortly after institutions including the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) issued a statement instructing countries in the bloc to establish new rules favouring ethnic minorities in the workplace.

    According to the self-styled human rights organisations, it is vital that EU countries engineer equality of outcome between migrant populations and natives in the continent’s jobs market in order to ensure the bloc is equipped with “the diversity Europe needs to remain relevant” in a global economy.”

    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/czech-police-arrest-suspects-german-train-attack-case-62003390

    “Austria’s top security official says Czech authorities have arrested two men suspected of forming a terror cell with a man detained over unsuccessful attacks on trains in Germany.

    The first suspect, a 42-year-old Iraqi, was arrested in Vienna on Monday. He’s suspected of carrying out two attacks late last year, in one of which a high-speed train hit a steel cable stretched over tracks between Nuremberg and Munich. Nobody was hurt.

    The Austria Press Agency reported that Interior Minister Herbert Kickl told Austria’s parliament Thursday two more suspects believed to have formed a cell with the Iraqi were arrested in Prague.

    Czech police said they arrested two foreigners at Austria’s request, and that they were detained at Prague Airport shortly after arriving on Wednesday. They declined to give further details.”

  33. US watchdog: Peace with Taliban won’t resolve Afghan crises (abcnews, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/us-watchdog-peace-taliban-resolve-afghan-crises-62005874

    “Afghanistan will remain dependent on international donors and foreign help even after a peace deal with the Taliban is reached, a U.S. watchdog said Thursday.

    The warning by Washington’s Special Inspector General for Afghan Reconstruction, or SIGAR, which monitors billions of dollars in U.S. aid to the country, came in a new report identifying main high-risk areas for Afghanistan.

    John F. Sopko, head of SIGAR, urged policymakers to plan for the “day after,” saying a peace agreement won’t automatically resolve Afghanistan’s many crises.

    “Should peace come, if that peace is to be sustainable, it will come at an additional price that only external donors can afford,” Sopko said, according to a statement emailed to The Associated Press ahead of the report’s release.

    The report said main points of concern include widespread insecurity, underdeveloped civil policing capability, endemic corruption, sluggish economy, the Taliban-run narcotics trade and threats to women’s rights.

    Over the past months, the Trump administration has stepped up efforts to resolve Afghanistan’s 17-year war — America’s longest conflict — and U.S. special envoy Zalmay Khalilzad has held several rounds of peace talks with the Taliban, with both sides citing progress in the negotiations.

    But despite the talks, the Taliban stage near-daily attacks on Afghan forces, inflicting staggering casualties, and now hold sway over half of the country. Also, the insurgents refuse to talk directly with the government in Kabul, considering it a U.S. puppet.

    If a peace deal is struck, SIGAR said another concern would be the reintegration of as many as 60,000 heavily armed Taliban fighters and their families back into Afghan society.

    Donor countries are expected to finance approximately 51 percent of Afghanistan’s 2019 government spending of $5 billion. Yet the Afghan government’s capabilities are generally weak and it often lacks the capacity to manage and account for donor funds, the report said.”

  34. Driver sentenced to life for ramming 17 people in Australia (abcnews, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/driver-sentenced-life-ramming-17-people-australia-62002823

    “An Islamic State group sympathizer who rammed a car into pedestrians on a busy Australian city sidewalk, killing one person and injuring 16 others, was sentenced on Thursday to life in prison.

    Victoria state Supreme Court Justice Elizabeth Hollingworth ordered Saeed Noori, 37, to serve 30 years behind bars before he is eligible for parole.

    Hollingworth said it was “sheer good fortune” that more people were not killed or injured.

    “Deliberately driving a vehicle into a crowd of people is a dreadful crime,” the judge said. “Your actions have horrified and traumatized many people.”

    Noori drove his mother’s SUV into pedestrians on Dec. 21, 2017, outside a train station in downtown Melbourne, Australia’s second-largest city.

    A woman identified as Noori’s mother collapsed in court as her son was sentenced.

    He pleaded guilty in December to the murder of 83-year-old Antonios Crocaris, who died in a hospital eight days after he was struck. Murder carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.

    He also pleaded guilty to 11 counts of recklessly causing serious injury, which carries a maximum of 15 years in prison, and five counts of conduct endangering life, which carries up to 10 years in prison.

    He came to Australia from Afghanistan as a refugee in 2004 and is an Australian citizen.

    His lawyers told the court he suffered from schizophrenia and had fasted for a week before the attack.

    Noori’s computer and a USB stick contained images from international militant attacks and Islamic State movement videos.

    Noori, who has three children, bowed his head during the entirety of his sentencing.

    Hollingworth noted Noori’s mental health issues, years of heavy drug use and gambling addiction.

    “What happened was not due to a drug-induced psychosis. There is nothing specific in the days leading up that seems to have triggered your particular actions that day,” she told Noori.

    “The offending was entirely unprovoked, and displayed a callous disregard for the sanctity of human life,” she added.

    It was the second use of a car to attack pedestrians in downtown Melbourne in 2017. In January, six people were killed and more than 30 were injured when a car was driven in a pedestrian mall a few blocks from Noori’s attack.

    James Gargasoulas, 29, was sentenced last month to life in prison for what the judge described as “one of the worst examples of mass murder in Australian history.”

    Gargasoulas will spend at least 46 years in prison before he is eligible for parole.”

  35. 16 dead after blast outside restaurant in Somalia’s capital (abcnews, Mar 28, 2019)
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/large-blast-crowded-restaurant-somalias-capital-62001803

    “An explosives-laden vehicle detonated outside a busy restaurant in Somalia’s capital, killing at least 16 people, police said Thursday.

    Capt. Mohamed Hussein told The Associated Press that the blast occurred as the restaurant in Mogadishu’s Waberi district was crowded with diners.

    At least 17 other people were wounded, Col. Mohamed Hassan said.

    The al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab extremist group claimed responsibility. The group often targets high-profile areas in Mogadishu with suicide bombings. Those often include security checkpoints, hotels and government offices.

    The extremist group was chased out of the capital several years ago but continues to hold large parts of rural southern and central Somalia, taxing local people and travelers to fund its deadly quest to establish an Islamic state. It has thousands of fighters.

    The United States military has dramatically increased the number of deadly airstrikes against al-Shabab since President Donald Trump took office. The U.S. is one of a number of actors fighting al-Shabab, including a multinational African Union force, Somali forces and Kenyan troops.”

  36. the gateway pundit – US Bans EU Conservative Activist from Entry Into US for His Wedding After Being Framed in Christchurch Attack

    Martin Sellner, co-chair of the Austrian Identitarian Movement, has been framed by the Christchurch killer, raided by the police and threatened with arrest.

    Now the U.S. State Department seemingly wants to sabotage his wedding to conservative YouTuber Brittany Pettibone.

    Sellner came to fame in the US with the „Defend Europe“ mission, which helped raise awareness of the illegal people smuggling in the Mediterranenan in the name of humantarian aid. It was reoprted on by YouTuber Lauren Southern, who introduced him to to his Californian fiancee Brittany Pettibone.

    Last year, Southern, Sellner and Pettibone were denied entry into the UK when they wanted to go visit Tommy Robinson, which caused many U.S. patriots to say, “Thank God it can’t happen here.” But apparently it can!

    On Monday, Sellner’s home in Vienna was raided by Austrian police and his computers and cell phones seized on suspicion of “terrorism”, even though the Austrian Identitarian Movement just won a court case last year absolving them of charges of “forming a terrorist organization”.

    The charges: In January 2018, Sellner received a donation of €1500 from the Christchurch killer Brenton Tarrant, and sent him a routine thank-you message. At that time, of course, Sellner had no way of knowing who Tarrant was or what he was going to do a year later. Tarrant was traveling through Europe and also sought to meet with Sellner, but the meeting never came about.”Maybe I should’ve met with him, then maybe I would’ve been able to talk him out of it”, Sellner says.

    The Austrian Identitarians have searched all their E-mails and asked all their members if they met an Australian in 2018, and can say with great confidence they had no other contact with Tarrant, Sellner said yesterday on ServusTV.

    The Identitarian Movement is strictly non-violent and rejects hatred and racism. They welcome cultural diversity (“ethno-pluralism”) while seeking to preserve European culuture and heritage, mainly opposing mass immigration and Islamization. They routinely evict radical neo-Nazis when they try to infiltrate the “right-wing hipster movement”. They are mostly known for peaceful, eye-catching Greenpeace-style protest actions, such as scaling the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin 2017.

    Sellner is confident the charges will lead to nothing: “What crime am I charged with? What could I possibly have done differently, aside from being psychic? My lawyer says this case has absolutely no chance.” The scurrilous charges are mainly meant to tarnish his name and the reputation of the non-violent Identitarian Movement, which is so popular in Europe it continues to flourish despite being completely banned on Facebook, its original home.

    Even right-wingers and conservatives scurried to abandon Sellner this week, however, as Austria’s conservative-populist coalition of Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (Austrian People’s Party) and Vice-Chancellor Heinz-Christian Strache (Freedom Party of Austria) announced yesterday they would examine whether to ban the most successful youth movement in Europe since the 1960s.

    And the U.S. State Department seemingly joined in the pile-on, revoking Sellner’s electronic U.S. travel authorization (ESTA). “I called and they told me it was ‘based on my background’. Now, I can’t visit my fiancée or her family, or get married in the US as planned”, Sellner announced on Twitter.

    Ironically, this all may be part of the ruthless killer Tarrant’s evil plan to sow discord and start a civil war. In his manifesto, Tarrant wrote about the necessity of “attacking or assassinating weak or less radical leaders/influencers on either side of social conflicts” in order to “destabilize society”. Since he says he began planning his attack two years ago, it is very possible the donation to the non-violent and non-racist Identitarians was part of a deliberate plan to frame them, just as Tarrant referenced moderate figures like Candace Owens and Felix “PewDiePie” Kjellberg on his rampage in order to smear them.
