Coddling Criminals Is a New Front in the War on the Middle Class

The willful distortion of incidents involving police and black Americans serves an extremist agenda.  

By Christopher Roach April 25, 2021

The middle class is the traditional bedrock of American society. They are the rule followers, the volunteers, the middle managers, and small business owners. Being rule-oriented, they support the police and stability, as they have a stake in maintaining the status quo. Their values are defined by their economic and social position: self-sufficient, conscientious, and, lately, anxious.

The middle class is under pressure from numerous directions. Wages have been flat for 50 years, while prices have gone up, particularly for the traditional perquisites of middle-class existence: homes, healthcare, and education. Globalization and mass immigration increase the labor pool against which Americans must compete. Inflation and debt eat away at the ability of families to accrue wealth. And diversity and crime have made it so many families need to spend a small fortune (and a lot of time commuting) to recreate the lifestyle they enjoyed growing up.

Lately, riots and racial tension create additional anxieties for the middle class. The nihilism of these displays is alien to the middle class’s quest for security.

The Media Machine Foments Racial Tension

Last summer’s riots did not happen in a vacuum.  While a few years ago media infrastructure was geared around salacious “true crime” stories like the JonBenét Ramsey and Casey Anthony episodes, today there is a whole media apparatus deployed to amplify every negative police interaction involving white cops and black people.

These stories supposedly show the racist underbelly of America. As I have written before, the Left’s entire worldview is built upon a narrative of the illegitimacy of American society, because of its supposed corruption by systemic racism...............The willful distortion of these incidents serves an extremist agenda.......................

Service to the High-Low Coalition

The most obvious part of the agenda is to placate the demands for less exacting law enforcement among segments of the lower classes. While there is likely some debate within these communities about policing, their community leaders are fighting for less law and order. This is the foundation of recent anti-bail reform and related decriminalization efforts. Not only marijuana, but theft, trespassing, and prostitution are all now being decriminalized.

Permitting higher crime through lower levels of policing lets the urban poor avoid the laws and expectations of the middle class, whose restrictions and enforcers they perceive as oppressive. It’s just a knife fight, after all!..............

Recognizing that the worst atrocities are inflicted intramurally within poor black communities is now treated as bad manners. For the race-obsessed Left, what matters is “who” is doing something, not “what” is being done. That’s why a minor shove against a black man who allegedly sexually assaulted teens in a South Carolina subdivision is national news, while the black-on-black murders of children are not..............Rather, this violence and the official tolerance for it will just as likely lead to moral, political, and organizational paralysis among the middle class..............

The Fruits of a Poisonous System

Consider recent events. Kate Steinle’s killer walked, while Derek Chauvin was found guilty, not just of manslaughter, but of murder. American-owned businesses were shut down under mask mandates, but meanwhile, scores of refugees are being let into the country without being tested for COVID-19. These disparities make it clear: the system does not work for you if you are middle class or white or otherwise lumped in a disfavored group. Every source of power and influence—media, universities, corporations, and the government—is becoming explicitly hostile to heritage America..............To Read More....

Waking A Sleeping Giant

By Ray DiLorenzo —— Bio and Archives--June 20, 2020 @ Canada Free Press


The air is still, but there is a tension. You can feel it. It’s a stillness that makes one nervous, as a sleeping volcano that’s beginning to awaken, showing smoke and ash. For right now, people are quiet, wondering what is around the corner.

Common folk are continuing to be bombarded by the Left, behind their high walls with a self-righteous, phony ‘heart felt’ drone of why the country we all love, having so many of us fought and died for, is a sham, a fraud, illegitimate, irredeemable. Former Secretary of State, John Kerry is even predicting a revolution if Trump wins re-election.

 Left has deliberately planned and carried out the gradual destruction of our culture

The Left recruits the protesters, the placard walkers, the mindless bull-horn loudmouths spilling their gratuitous and absurd cacophony. It’s the reticent, restrained, hard-working citizen who plays by the rules, wasting no time complaining, that is muted, and for the time being controlled. These folk listen in silence, growing immune to the continuous noise.

For many decades, at least since the sixties, the Left has deliberately planned and carried out the gradual destruction of our culture, what made us the greatest country in all of human history, to a point unrecognizable. They went from blue jeans to three piece suits…destruction from the inside. They have dismissed God from the public square, devastated our schools, taught our children to hate God, country, and parents, destroyed countless Black and White families with welfare and handouts, keeping them in ‘their place.’ They killed millions of children, disproportionately Black, and called it ‘healthcare.’ Everything God declares as sin, they call good. No big deal, they don’t believe in God anyway. To them. everyone creates their own reality.

 Theirs is an evil, disordered, Marxist culture of the superiority of government over God and mankind. They hate everything that is good and clean. They needed to divide us and so they have. They say they hate fascism, but don’t really know what it is. They are willing to accept communism, but have no idea what they are asking for.

This Left has many faces…teachers, professors, politicians, media personalities, old hippy Marxists who lost their chance in the sixties, Hollywood types seeking relevance, judges of the Supreme Court on down, and high tech, the self-appointed keepers of morality, however bogus.

The Left wants limited free speech. Unlike what we were taught as children, they believe words can actually hurt them. They demand no guns (while they stockpile weapons), no borders, police, prisons (except for political prisoners), or churches. What they want is a full Red Chinese-style, student-led, paramilitary, socio-political cultural revolution. Unacceptable history, movies, speech, private property, books, especially the Bible, will be banned. Thought police have already arrived.

Police killed nine Blacks total in 2019, while Blacks killed Blacks in the thousands

Democrat governors and mayors are winking at the discord. Police in all their states are being ordered to stand down to one extent or another while they tear cities apart. The Washington state governor, Jay Inslee, claimed recently he actually didn’t know anything about the partial city takeover in Seattle. New York City, on Mayor de Blasio’s orders, released 250 prisoners. They have since been rearrested 450 times, having committed unspeakable crimes. One of them walked past a 92-year old woman and for no reason hit her hard in the face as she passed with her walker, dropping her to the ground where her head hit a fire hydrant. Police are being shot, and ambushed. Precincts are being stormed. People are being assaulted wholesale in all the Democrat strongholds just for being White. Murder in New York City is up 25%.

And yet, people are still, taking it all in.

Hypocrites abound. They ‘liberate’ a section of Seattle and call it their Autonomous Zone to show the world how to live. In the meantime they put up walls, destroy almost everything in sight, arm themselves to the teeth, accept deliveries of food and sanitation from people who actually work for a living, beat a man senseless by their ‘police’ for stealing. How’s that for police brutality? Police without law or inhibition. A true Animal Farm. I doubt they even see the irony of it all. The mayor of Seattle, being the hapless public servant, decides it’s just a block party…true anarchy with government approval.

Many ask why the anarchy? It is simple. The Left needs a total societal breakdown so as to introduce their own form of law and order, a tyrannical, communist, godless government. Think Soviet Union, North Korea, Red China. They will promise Scandinavia, but will deliver Red China. They’re hoping people will demand it.

In the sixties, the Left had the Vietnam War to protest. When the war ended, the movement disintegrated. Now, in a desperate search for a cause, they think they found it…racism. While he was president, Obama and his minions, anxious to finish the job, pulled all the scabs off what was a long healing wound and called us all racists, from a Black president mind you. Police killed nine Blacks total in 2019, while Blacks killed Blacks in the thousands, but never mind, police are not allowed to kill Blacks, only Blacks are. The Left will not allow healing. They need division so they encourage it.

Their cause remains a thin veneer, cheap, a counterfeit

Their cause remains a thin veneer, cheap, a counterfeit. We paid too dear a price for it to be anything else. Hence, they will lose this war, this revolution, once again. People are waking up, beginning to feel their families and stuff being threatened. In America, you don’t mess with one’s family and stuff. They worked too hard to find some happiness in this troubled world. The Left thinks they are gaining the upper hand, using treason and insurrection at a time when no one seems to meet with justice. They have miscalculated.

While the insurgents burn cities, the Left hopes people will demand change that only they can deliver. Yes, the people will make demands, but not to their liking.

If the anemic response such as what we have seen from both Democrats and Republicans continues, vigilante justice will come and it will not be pleasant. The people will not cower, they will not cringe. They will do what no one else is willing to do.

The 40 Iron Laws of Politics in America

John Hawkins | Posted: Feb 04, 2018

1) Liberals care much more about policies that make them feel good about themselves than they do about policies that actually make life better for people.
2) That person in politics being compared to Hitler is really not very much like Hitler at all.
3) The bigger government gets, the worse it serves the people.
4) While they are in office, all Republican Presidents will be portrayed by the Left as either evil, crazy, racist, stupid or some combination thereof.
5) For every actual racist act and comment in politics, there are 500 people being falsely called bigots because Democrats believe it benefits them politically
6) The first concern of politicians is always keeping their job and making the country a better place is not even a close second.
7) The richest, most powerful people in society will ALWAYS find ways to corrupt politicians. That means the best way to limit the power of those people over government is to keep the government small and limited in scope. The bigger and more powerful the government becomes, the more power ends up being given to people with the money to pay politicians to further their interests.
8) The liberal mainstream media covers every story differently based on whether it benefits Republicans or Democrats.  ............To Read More
 

Political Correctness Run Amok - or - Only an Intellectual Could Think This Was Smart

Jesus Christ and Mary are the latest victims of the mass statue-removing frenzy.

By Rich Kozlovich

On August 29, 2917 Katherine Timpf posted an article, Catholic School Removes Jesus, Mary Statues Because They’re ‘Alienating’ to Non-Catholics, saying:

"The San Domenico School, the first Catholic school in California, has removed all but 18 of its 180 religious statues in an effort to be more “inclusive” and “forward looking.” Several parents have complained about the decision, according to Marinij."

She goes on to note:

 "Articulating an inclusive foundation appears to mean letting go of San Domenico’s 167-year tradition as a Dominican Catholic school and being both afraid and ashamed to celebrate one’s heritage and beliefs,” one of these parents, Shannon Fitzpatrick, told the news source. “In our time here, the word ‘Catholic’ has been removed from the mission statement, sacraments were removed from the curriculum, the lower-school curriculum was changed to world religions, the logo and colors were changed to be ‘less Catholic,’ and the uniform was changed to be less Catholic,”

Of course the first question I had was - If all of this "Catholicness" was so offensive to students of other faiths - why is it 80% of the student body isn't Catholic?  Apparently they and their families weren't offended.  Apparently - it seems to me - they wanted their children to be a part of this institution because it was Catholic.  Or is that too obvious for this school's board to grasp? 

They're now justifying this action because this school is "an “independent” as well as a “Catholic” school".  Well, this of course puts a different light on the subject!  Right?   Wrong!  It's a school that was a Catholic school and is now an education center run by Catholic heretics, and if I miss my guess - it will soon find it's going to be independent of a large number of students. 

Whether one is a Catholic or not, whether one is a Christian or not, whether one is an atheist or not - this should be disturbing as it shows just how easily it is for heresy to seep into a religion, or any group for that matter, and destroy the values of a particular society and replace it with semi-religious secularism. 

It's easy to agree with Dan Greenfield's article  - The Left's Values Are Our State Church - when he says leftism is now the state sponsored - and in some cases - imposed religion.   Catholics, Jews and Protestants all have their heretics - the Republicans have their RINO's - and the United States has the Federal Judiciary - all undermining the values that made our society great.

Make no mistake about this - this isn't about "offending" others.  This is about Political Correctness run amok.  Political Correctness is fascism masquerading as concern for common decency.  PC is dangerous because it imparts stupidity by destroying the ability to define an issue properly.  And it's definition that leads to clarity.  Without clarity of thought there can be no decisive thinking or action.

Since they pulled this stunt after everyone signed up for this year's enrollment - it will be interesting to see what happens next year.  If what happens what I think is going to happen - this school's board will soon have clarity imposed on them. 

Definition leads to clarity.  Clarity leads to understanding.  Understanding leads to good decision making.  Fire the heretics, replace the RINO's, impose term and age limits on the federal judiciary and all elected officials.  Because good decision making leads to harmony!

 

Cleveland Browns Facing Massive Veterans Boycott After Anthem Antics

By Andrew West August 25, 2017

Even with washed up footballer Colin Kaepernick sitting jobless on the sidelines, the NFL is not without its controversial anthem protests.

Kaepernick’s bizarre behavioral change during his unexpectedly final season in the NFL was nothing more than a cheap publicity stunt meant to drum up support for the undeserving quarterback who was destined for the bench.  By lashing out at police with his derogatory clothing choices, and by disrespecting the men and women of our armed forces by refusing to stand for the National Anthem, Kaepernick locked up his place in liberal history and ensured that he would see his final 15 minutes of fame before withering away into obscurity.

Unfortunately, even with the NFL giving the has-been QB the cold shoulder this year, a number of heirs to the anti-American throne have emerged, including twelve Cleveland Browns players who took a knee during the Star Spangled Banner at Monday night’s preseason shindig.....To Read More...

 

America's record on slavery slammed by ... Spiderman?

Popular movie takes aim at Washington Monument, Founding Fathers

WND EXCLUSIVE

Even “Spiderman” isn’t immune to the endless push for political correctness.  Another attempted reboot for the superhero franchise, “Spiderman: Homecoming,” is receiving attention for its deliberate attempt to incorporate diversity into its casting. And while that isn’t so unusual, an incongruous critique of the Washington Monument as the product of slave labor is raising eyebrows among some theatergoers.  In the scene, the character Michelle Jones, played by biracial actress Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman, refuses to enter the Washington Monument with the rest of her decathlon team because it was supposedly built by slaves................“In 1879, after a 25-year hiatus, work resumed on the monument and was largely finished by 1884.........As Barton observes, American slavery was only a memory by this point in history.   “Since slavery ended in 1865 through the addition of the Thirteenth Amendment, none of the work that occurred from 1879 to 1884 involved any slaves – not one,” he said.

“So even if one accepts that the entirety of the work done from 1848 to 1854 was performed solely by slaves, which was definitely not the case, then it would still be the case that about 80 to 85 percent of the work was not done by slaves. However, since most of the early work was not done by slaves, it is possible that from 90 to 95 percent (or even a higher percentage) of the monument was not done by slaves. Those who claim that the monument was built by slaves insinuate that the entire structure was a result of slave labor, when in reality it’s likely closer to only 5 percent or less.”...........Read more

Students Say “Millionaire” Mascot is Divisive

Todd Starnes Jul 07, 2017

Many years ago - Americans of wealth and privilege leisured in a place called Lenox, Massachusetts.
Over the years, many of them gave back by lavishing the community with philanthropy. They built a school and purchased uniforms for local children.The Berkshire Eagle reported that the millionaires were central to the survival of the town after many citizens left to fight in the wars.

As a way of recognizing the kindness and generosity of their benefactors, Lenox Memorial Middle and High School named its mascot – “The Millionaires.”..............It's unfortunate the kids at Lenox High School are ashamed of the prosperity that built their school and put clothes on their backs.  But since they are shopping for a new moniker, perhaps I could offer some suggestions. How about the Lenox High School Mighty Paupers or the Fighting Food Stampers?.......To Read More....

First blood: Mike Flynn

"… never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee." – John Donne

By G. Murphy Donovan February 15, 2017

Trump-haters have drawn first blood.  Michael Flynn was the first casualty.  General Flynn could come back into the fold at some later date.  Exile, followed by reprieve, might be something Donald Trump would do.  Alas, for the moment, the president doesn't look as though he can take a punch.   The entire "sanctions" kerfuffle, conversations with the Russian ambassador, is inside baseball stuff.  Nobody cares much about sanctions, Beltway candor, or character anyway. If every lawyer and politician in D.C. were fired for mendacity, Washington would be a ghost town.  Flynn was outed by a rabid press corps with a seditious agenda.  Trump has been bloodied.  Sadly, Trump didn't cut his losses. Like the man he replaced, the president simply folded like a cheap tent.......Flynn knows, too, that the national security community has unsheathed the long knives. Leaked intelligence is a two-way street. Oddly enough, Trump doesn't seem to realize that he, too, like Flynn, is on the regime change hit list after just a few weeks in office. Political pathology at intelligence agencies like CIA is not confined to domestic machinations. ........More

Why Progressive Christians Are Ineffective and Unpersuasive

Also, what killed the Religious Right?

By Peter Heck

One of the most fascinating speeches in the Bible happens in Acts 5, with Jewish Pharisee Gamaliel addressing the Sanhedrin. He warns them that if the message being preached by the Apostles of Jesus were of man, it would fail. But if it is from God, it can't be stopped........I find that passage particularly relevant today within American Christendom.

There is a reason why liberal Christian movements like those championed by Jim Wallis, Rachel Held Evans, Shane Claiborne, and others are so ineffective and unpersuasive in American culture. Rather than seeking to glorify and build the Kingdom of God, they regularly appropriate the language of Scripture to advocate for earthly, largely political causes that never address the principal need of humanity: salvation from sin..........

The passage she cites is actually Jesus warning His disciples about hypocrisy – the very offense Evans commits in a post meant to condemn Trump's crudeness while applauding it in others.  This is the enduring problem with these liberal Christian movements.  Whether flying under the banner of social justice or emergent church, the Christian left is nothing more than what they hated in the Religious Right: political activists selectively hijacking particular words of the Divine in vanity and political approbation........... More

My Take - Let's try and remember these allegedly Christian leaders are supposed to believe in the Bible, understand it and teach it.  They're doing none of the above.  Which of course makes me wonder if they believe in the Bible at all, and whether or not they believe Christ's words mean anything to them, or if they even believe they're Christ's words.  If they don't, who needs their churches......and .....who needs them?  After all, you can get that kind of thinking from the New York Times.

Christian religion was co-opted from the very beginning. 

The apostle John stated in the first century: "Rev. 2:6 "Still, you do have this, that you hate the deeds of the sect of Nicolaus, which I also hate."  That was in the first century and apostacy was already becoming a problem, and that trend continued for the next 2000 years.  

The apostle Paul stated in 2 Timothy 4: "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear." 

These religionists have corrupted the very foundational teachings of Christianity for their own gain, and delusionally believe they will not be recognized for who and what they are.  But if one believes what the Bible says - clearly they're not fooling Christ - you know - they one they're supposed to believe in, follow and promote! 

Matthew 7:22 states: "Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ 23.  Then I will tell them plainly, "I never knew you" depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness".   

These leftist religionists have adopted every concept of the left, all of which could easily be modern day equivalents of the teachings of ancient Baal worship, to which the Israelites also fell prey - including the sacrifice of their children to the fire pits of Baal.  We don't murder our children in the fire pits of Baal worship, we murder them before their born in the sanitary pits of hospitals. 

Homosexuality, promiscuity, prostitution were all religious tenets of the ancient world's religions.  They're also the tenants of the left.  And the "Christian" churches who embrace these practises are heretics.  It really is that simple, and shocking as it may seem - the common people who read the Bible know it, and that's why the religious left is a failure. 

However, the religious right hasn't done much better because they're afraid to speak out and condemn all the left, including leftist religionists.  Name the last time a left wing Catholic was excommunicated?  How did Ted Kennedy - an absolute supporter of abortion - get buried in the Church?  Why is Nancy Pilosi - another absolute supporter of abortion - allowed to celebrate communion?  It's claimed she's a devout Catholic.  She clearly isn't, so why hasn't she been excommunicated? 

 

Let me say this in the clearest possible terms.  Anyone claiming to be a Christian and a Democrat ----- is guilty of heresy! 

From the Front Line: Sharia Compliance in the US Military

By Pamela Geller @ American Thinker

I recently received this shocking letter from a man who has served as a contractor in Afghanistan.  It reveals the appalling extent of sharia compliance in the United States military.

My name is John Craig. I have been a contractor in Afghanistan for over five years as a mechanical engineer. Recently I have been dismissed by the command of Bagram Air Field and lost my job. I am in Kuwait and in route to go home and find another job.  

The reason I was expelled from the base is because I had two copies of the Koran. One was a hardback study book and the other a paperback Koran; it is my interest to study the religion in and of itself and take notes.  

Well, what happened was that I wrote notes and highlighted throughout the books and came to the conclusion that the doctrine itself is that of murder, rape, and extortion. That is my personal view of the religion.  

Well, dumb me, I wrote on the paperback Koran in black marker right on the front – RELIGION OF MURDER. That is what I think of it. The Command M.P. (military police) did an inspection in our rooms and were searching for General Order 1 violations; it's normal procedure finding drugs, alcohol, and pornographic material. Well, in this search, they found my study Korans (under my bed) out of sight and out of view of others, and called me in to investigate why I had marked on the Koran RELIGION OF MURDER.  

I went to the police station and wrote an essay on my reasons for having the books and why I wrote that. I explained to them that this was all for personal study and not meant for sharing with others, especially with Muslims. I do not preach, evangelize or try to talk to Muslims about their religious beliefs. I am simply there trying to make a living for my family and have no intention of ever sharing my beliefs.  

The Command did not see it that way. The following day, the leadership of my company called me in and read a letter from the Air Force Colonial Command, stating that I was permanently barred from the military base there in Afghanistan and that I was to leave immediately. The charge was that I was "in possession of prohibited material." So it did not define my marking on the book; it just said I had something that was in violation of their General Order 1.  

The colonel said that my presence there was a security threat and a disruption of the good conduct of personnel on the base and that I had to leave. In addition, I will not be able to work anywhere with the military, either there or in Kuwait or Iraq, or with any other branch in the military service.  

Apparently, he has even gone as far as put me on a watch list, which is called "red flagging." Even though I have a security clearance, I am being watched as if I were a terrorist in case I might cause some kind of violence or something. When I left the following night, I had a Military Police escort to the airport. Two men followed me right up to the airplane to see for themselves that I was in the airplane and seated. I never thought I would be treated like the Taliban. They were ordered to keep an eye on me and not to let me out of their sight.  

I do not know how far this is going to escalate. It appears to me that this is the Obama administration: they have made federal regulations to punish anyone who insults or criticizes the Islamic faith and are making an example of said individuals. I have done nothing wrong. Those books were mine. I purchased them, and I can do what I want with what is mine. I was not going around voicing my opinions about Islam. I even have a good friend there in the company who is a Muslim, and I do not insult him or tell him he is wrong. It's all just a hobby to me, to study region and political science.  

The federal government might push this farther and try to get some kind of criminal charges against me. I have been advised not to talk much or say much by people in the company, because they are hearing things but will not tell me. My manager told me that he called corporate, and they told him this was an extremely serious charge against me, that I am being fired on this insult to Islam charge, and that I will lose my clearance and be punished for my graffiti on these books.

This is shameful and outrageous.  That an American patriot would be treated this way for exercising his freedom of speech is an indication of how far we have fallen under Obama.  Today it is John Craig; tomorrow it could be any other defender of freedom.  This must be stopped – now.

The Rise of Political Correctness

Angelo M. Codevilla

The notion of political correctness came into use among Communists in the 1930s as a semi-humorous reminder that the Party’s interest is to be treated as a reality that ranks above reality itself.

Because all progressives, Communists included, claim to be about creating new human realities, they are perpetually at war against nature’s laws and limits. But since reality does not yield, progressives end up pretending that they themselves embody those new realities.

Hence, any progressive movement’s nominal goal eventually ends up being subordinated to the urgent, all-important question of the movement’s own power. Because that power is insecure as long as others are able to question the truth of what the progressives say about themselves and the world, progressive movements end up struggling not so much to create the promised new realities as to force people to speak and act as if these were real: as if what is correct politically—i.e., what thoughts serve the party’s interest—were correct factually............Every form of progressivism bases itself on the claim of a special, “scientific,” knowledge of what is wrong with humanity and how to fix it.........To Read More....

'Chelsea' is not a woman

Bradley (aka Chelsea) Manning is no more a woman than traitors are patriots.

By Robert Arvay

By blurring the distinctions among words, liberals have for many years now labeled terrorists as freedom-fighters, taxes as investments, and illegal aliens as immigrants.

 At first, these so-called gray areas may seem trivial to some people, but they have enormous influence in shaping the life of the nation. One of the most recent additions to the left's panoply of confusion concerns gender. According to progressives, there really is no such thing as a man or a woman. They claim that gender is a "social construct" and that one's gender lies along a spectrum where manhood and womanhood blend together on a gradual and diffuse scale. Some genders are not even on the scale, but morph from day to day, depending on whether someone "feels like" a man today or a woman tomorrow. This is not innocent idiocy, but a poison. ........

Manning's commutation: A hypocrite president saves a confused leaker

By Daniel John Sobieski


That deafening silence you hear is the outcry, or lack of it, among Democrats and liberals for President Obama's commutation of Pvt. Bradley/Chelsea Manning, sentenced to 35 years in prison for leaking sensitive information to WikiLeaks.  Their outage is reserved for WikiLeaks guru Julian Assange, who, with the Russians, allegedly, cost Hillary Clinton the presidency by revealing the emails of the DNC and John Podesta........As the New York Times reports, Bradley/Chelsea's commutation may have less to do with justice and more to do with political correctness and Manning's attempt to change his sex being a "get out of jail free" card: ........

Surgery to make Bradley/Chelsea Manning look like a woman, but no care for dying vets?  

Such was and is the priority of liberal Democrats and the outgoing Obama administration.  Show mercy to our veterans, not to transgendered traitors. Liberals say someone like Bradley/Chelsea Manning shouldn't be trapped in the wrong body.  But traitors should remain trapped in the right prison. ........ More

Christian university denies conservative students’ request to form campus club

Lauren Fox - University of Notre Dame

Faculty leaders at Samford University – a private Christian university in Alabama – have temporarily denied a request from conservative students to form a campus club due to the “inflammatory” wording of their founding documents.  The students had sought to launch a Young Americans for Freedom chapter at the school, but an email to the students from Shannon Ashe, the chair of the Campus Life Committee, explained why that request has been rejected – for now.  “We are looking for the YAF student group to amend or justify the inflammatory language listed in its Purpose,” Ashe told the student leading the effort to launch the club in a Nov. 15 email. At issue is some wording in the Sharon Statement, which helped launch the conservative movement in the 1960s. It also serves as a founding document for every YAF campus chapter across the country.......To Read More....
