The Unexplained Murder of a Wikileaks Mole in the DNC

THIS IS NOT A NEW STORY. In a previous post, I mentioned the unexplained murder of a DNC staffer in DC shortly after a trove of incriminating DNC emails was made public by Wikileaks last year.

Both the FBI and the DC police have access to the emails which Seth Rich, a Sanders supporter working for the DNC, had passed on to Wikileaks.

Some time ago, Wikileaks put up a $20K reward for info leading to the identification and arrest of Mr. Rich's killer. So far, defeaning silence from the Democrats and from both the DC police and the FBI. Gee, ya' don't think there's a cover-up going on, do you? Nah. Not the DC elite. They would never do anything like that, would they?

Wiki long ago pooh-poohed the Demoncrat narrative that Russia was the sole source of the DNC emails leaked to Wiki. There were also two British ambassadors who asserted that Russia was not the source of the DNC emails exposed by Wikileaks, and that they knew the DNC person actually leaking the emails to Wikileaks. Seth Rich? (Of course, there could have been other Wiki DNC moles as well.)

Where there's smoke, there's almost invariably fire, folks. And this is why the DemocRATS are doing their best to befuddle, divert our attention, obfuscate and cover up the truth.

As the article points out, this could one of the biggest political cover-ups in US history.

Something must be done to investigate this "unexplained murder" with every asset available to the DOJ and Congress. We must all push for it--including the President!

If we permit this scandal to be ignored as well, we as a nation are committing suicide and no amount of double-talk can conceal the awful reality that Rule of Law is, indeed, dead and buried.

And while we're at it, the DOJ must be COMPELLED to immediately launch a full scale investigation of the Clinton Foundation, the Hillary email scandal, the felonious leaks and unmasking, Hillary's corrupt uranium deal with Russia, and last but by no means least, the preventable Benghazi deaths. These scandals are not the creations of simple-minded conspiracists or are they politically motivated speculative theories. They are painfully real and dangerous threats to the security and welfare of this country.

Somebody in DC with spine, principle and authority must finally get off his/her dead ass and get all this done.

Silence from Establishment Media over Seth Rich Wikileaks Report

Left-wing media outlets including New York Times and CNN have so far failed to cover a FOX News report concerning Seth Rich and WikiLeaks.

Imperial Federal Land Seizures Continue

As I mentioned in an earlier post, the federal land grab over the years has been nothing short of breathtakingly unconstitutional! This usurpation is in direct conflict with the Constitution's "Enclave Clause".

But it doesn't stop there. For some time now, presidents have been relying on the Antiquities Act of 1906 to condone the seizure of vast amounts of sovereign State territory for the purpose of establishing "national monuments" which has the effect of denying access to and use of millions of acres of State land irrespective of the seizure's local economic impact.

The Antiquities Act specifies that designated areas must cover “the smallest area compatible with proper care and management of the objects to be protected.” The first monument created under the Antiquities Act, Devil’s Tower National Monument in Wyoming, covers 1,347 acres, less than 3 square miles. The monument covers the Devil’s Tower itself — nothing more.

But, give the feds the authority and they will surely exceed all commonsense and statutory restraints--AND with barely a hint of resistance from our spineless States, which have morphed into mere vassals of our federal lord and master.

For example, Obama designated Bears Ears Nat'l Monument which encompasses 1.35m acres (2100 sq miles!). Clinton designated the Grand Staircase Escalante Nat'l Monument, a 1.9m grab encompassing nearly 3,000 sq miles!

And nary a peep of protest from our hat-in-hand, submissive States which continue to bow and scrape before Leviathan. Sickening.

Why do I bother?

America Headed for Single-Payer Health Care.

As said before, to make sense of DC machinations I try to evaluate those political developments through a constitutional lens. For me, doing so simplifies and clarifies.

To wit, the provision of health care is within the Constitutional province of the States alone--NOT the federal government. (See Art 1 Sec 8 and 10th Amendment.) But, the Constitution is irrelevant these days. So, to keep their campaign pledge to "repeal and replace" Obamacare, Republicans in the House have, by the thinnest of margins, approved what is, in effect, Obamacare Lite.

Just to be clear, Obamacare was NOT "repealed" by the House. It wasn't really "replaced" either. It was tinkered with and rewritten to reduce costs and to improve upon patient centered health care.

Yes, it's an improvement over the costly, ham-handed, authoritarian Obamacare abomination, but any reasonable person must see that the age-old Progressive goal of government control of health care is fast becoming an acceptable goal on both sides of the aisle. (And unless we're VERY careful, it's only a matter of time before healthcare, education AND the right to self-defense are ceded by the People to our federal masters. And once surrendered, only revolution can restore them to the People.)

The people have drunk the kool-aid and don't want to surrender it. Bread and circuses are seductive and difficult to resist. Human nature.

Those of you who are familiar with the Hegelian Dialectic understand that the GOP health care bill is but a historical compromise with big government Liberal dogma. Long-term winners: Progressivism and Socialism. Oh, the Libs will whine over and lament this watered down version of Obamacare, but the hardcore ideologues among them are quietly licking their chops. The House has unwittingly vindicated the Left's Progressive agenda.

For some time now, this country has clearly been on a socialist, top-to-bottom glide path because the People, with the help of years of slick and relentless Progressive propaganda, have bought into the notion that big government is the answer. In the end, history's lessons will be ignored and Socialism will prevail until it collapses yet again.

We can hope that more thoughtful constitution-minded heads in the Senate will give this bill a harder look and render it more palatable. But I'm not counting on it.

On the bright side: Planned Parenthood has been defunded for a year. (Gee, what will those researchers out there do without PP-supplied baby parts? Curses!)

The House Just Passed a Bill to Rewrite Obamacare

House Republicans say their bill repeals the ACA. Instead, it leaves the essential structure of that law in place.

How's Trump Doing on Refugee Admissions Pledge?

SO HOW'S MR. TRUMP DOING ON HIS REFUGEE ADMISSIONS SLOWDOWN? And I don't want to hear defenders saying he was undermined by renegade judges--which, of course, he was, but that's only part of the story.

The point is HE NEVER HAD TO PLACE A REFUGEE SLOWDOWN/A REDUCED CAP IN AN EXECUTIVE ORDER! Which begs the question, did he and/or his advisors knows this, but not wanting to offend the powerful "resettlement industry", included the annual cap reduction in the EO anyway? Incompetence or an intentional ruse to placate the obscenely self-serving resettlement industry?

The Refugee Act of 1980 gives the President enormous powers to unilaterally cap resettlement and to slow down the processing of refugees by simply imposing more stringent vetting requirements. In short, he didn't and doesn't need an EO to do this!!!!!! And as for the renegade judges, he should at least promptly call for their impeachment!!!!!! (That said, he is also constitutionally empowered to nullify those ridiculous rulings.)

Since Inauguration Day, 12,218 "refugees", many from Somalia and Syria, have been resettled in the United States. This puts the number for this fiscal year at 42,235. At this rate, Trump's FY'17 "cap" of 50,000 will be exceeded by over 10,000!!!! Not pretty.

Mr. Trump was either hoodwinked by his advisors when crafting the EO or he knowingly played a part of this ruse.

The lawless judges will surely have blood on their hands, but we can't excuse executive "incompetence" either, should this influx lead to more otherwise preventable terrorist bloodshed in the homeland.

Sorry, but I'm calling it as I see it. And this from a retired private sector refugee resettlement manager and immigration counselor. So, no, I am in no way a xenophobe. Quite the contrary. Just a commonsense patriot.

"Draining the Swamp" of Pedophiles

Owing to years of rampant political corruption and faithlessness to the Constitution on the part of so many of our political leaders, I am, admittedly, an unrepentant cynic of the first order. Yet despite that hard-boiled cynicism, for years now even I have given scant credence to the relentless rumors of pedophile rings in DC. Not even I could believe it. Well, was I ever wrong!

Enter Rep. Trey Gowdy, arguably the finest, most principled political leader on Capitol Hill today.

Apparently, these rings are more than the stuff of rumor. Nearly in tears, and after viewing evidence of child sexual predation, he is spearheading congressional hearings on this egregious criminal enterprise. And isn't it interesting that it is the hypocritical Left--which forever uses children to advance its self-serving progressive agenda--which appears to be the principal source of this gruesome behavior. Why am I not surprised.

South Carolina should be enormously proud of Representative Gowdy. He's an honorable and decent man who really does care. He deserves our fullest support. Let's hope heads roll--and soon.

A country which kills its own children and sexually assaults them as well cannot endure.

Immigration: Trump Must Exercise His Constitutional Authority

Yes, Mr. Trump has the legal authority to stop processing refugees with or without a formal moratorium. But, more to the point, he has the constitutional authority and DUTY–that’s DUTY– to ignore the renegade judges who lawlessly “ruled” against his congressionally-sanctioned Executive Order.

The judiciary is populated by faithless, black-robed, arrogant, agenda-driven and unaccountable oligarchs. And that’s the awfully painful truth of the matter. We have invested far more power in the judiciary than our Founders ever intended, so I’m not surprised we find ourselves in this lawless quagmire. Ignoring the judges’ vile, lawless rulings would have ended this alien invasion and would have restored at least a semblance of constitutional order. But, when not even Mr. Trump’s advisors understand the Constitution--much less read it--I’m not surprised that Mr. Trump has been reduced to constitutional irrelevance.

The pervasive ignorance of the Constitution which plagues this once venerable republic will be our undoing. Frankly, for a political leader to exercise both constitutional restraint AND authority these days requires an incredible level of courage, spine, clear-thinking, and principle, all of which have been in dangerously short supply for dedades.

And so it goes with this once great constitutional republic. Our being added to the ash heap of history appears to be our destiny.

"Moderate Muslims" v "Radical Muslims" ?

This brief and pithy article persuasively contends that the West's differentiating between "Radical Muslim" and "Moderate Muslim" is delusional. And while it is objectively difficult to argue with that premise when all professed Muslims adhere to the same basic teachings, my own view is that not unlike the reformation which occurred in Christianity hundreds of years ago, is it really that intellectually difficult to believe that some Muslims--most particularly those who have been exposed to Western values and culture--have, indeed, moderated their INTERPRETATION of basic Koranic beliefs?

To wit, though all Christians believe in the Bible, does it necessarily follow that their interpretation of the Bible is the same? Obviously not.

Historically, and as the article points out, even Muhammed was angered by "moderates" (spouting what wasn't in their hearts) within his ranks. And the fact that extremists like Pres. Erdogen of Turkey, among other Islamists in the world today, are so incensed with the notion of "moderate Muslims" tells me that some moderate Muslims must exist. Otherwise these rigidly doctrinaire Islamists wouldn't be so fired up. And, of course, there's Dr. Jasser, American citizen, former US Navy Cmdr, who is often interviewed by FOX and who is a very vocal opponent of Jihadism/Islamism. To me, a hard-boiled cynic who understands that one of the teachings of militant Islam is Taqqia (lying to mislead), Dr. Jasser and others like him in the US simply do not strike me as congenital liars and disinformation campaigners for Jihadis. They strike me as genuine moderates. Of course, the challenge for us is to accurately differentiate moderate and extremist, and I'm not sure we're there yet. Am I naive?

What do you think?

Radical Muslims and Moderate Muslims

Most non-Muslims have little actual knowledge of Islam. They have never read the Koran, hadith reports, or books on sharia, Islamic law. Thus, their knowledge of Islam comes primarily from the half-truths and lies provided by the mainstream media…
