Spygate

2020_01 25 Spygate chickens by Terrell

Democrats who wanted Hillary to win the 2016 election used the power of the federal government to spy on the Trump campaign.

A judge with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) has ruled that the authority this court granted to the federal government to secretly wiretap and spy on former Trump affiliate Carter Page was “not valid.”

The FISA law states that American citizens cannot be secretly spied on by the U.S. government absent probable cause, based on valid evidence, that an American is unlawfully acting as a foreign agent. N.b., it is not against the law for an American to act as a foreign agent; lobbyists do it all the time. There must ALSO be an actual crime.

“Not valid” means the evidence presented to the FISA court was bogus. The FBI had no evidence that Carter Page was acting as a foreign agent OR that he had committed any crimes. What he was doing was working with the Trump presidential campaign. Continue reading →

The 47th March for Life

2020_01 24 March a

This happens ever year, regardless of how miserable the January weather is. And as per usual, the crowd was estimated in the tens, possibly hundreds of thousands.

The march was kicked off by a rally on the National Mall attended by thousands, where President Donald Trump became the first U.S. president to address the March for Life.

“Unborn children have never had a stronger defender in the White House,” Trump said. “Every life brings love into this world. Every child brings joy to a family. Every person is worth protecting.”

The president highlighted recent state-level efforts to expand abortion to include all nine months of pregnancy, singling out legislation passed in New York last year as well as controversial comments by Virginia Governor Ralph Northam (D).

Trump was joined on stage by Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), March for Life president Jeanne Mancini, Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.), and others.

Other speakers at the rally included political figures from both Republican and Democratic parties: the First Lady of Louisiana, Donna Bel Edwards; House Minority Whip Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.); Louisiana State Sen. Katrina Jackson (D); U.S. Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.); and Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the pro-life group Susan B. Anthony List and co-chair of the Trump 2020 campaign’s pro-life coalition.

California

Where hatred for Catholicism trumps compassion for victims of sex traffickers. (Tell me again who is waging a war on women?)

National Trafficking Hotline: CALL 1-888-3737-888 or TEXT BeFree (233733) 

Can you even fathom that California has refused a license to this San Diego Catholic charity that wants to open a home for teen victims of sex trafficking?

California isn’t concerned that the facility isn’t legitimate or safe. No, no. California has denied the license, because the Catholics running the organization are not willing to promote LGBTQ events, drive residents to get abortions, and inject minors in their care with transgender hormone medications. Apparently they think it’s better for these kids to die.

The charity, Children of the Immaculate Heart (CIH), currently provides housing and a rehabilitation program for adult survivors who have children. They are raising money for one of their adult clients who needs brain surgery. When I checked, they only needed $2,500 more to reach their goal. The link to donate is below.

Trump’s in Big Trouble Now!

2020_01 24 impeach trump

SATIRE: In a troubling turn of events for the Trump legal team, US Representative Adam Schiff is making a strong case for impeachment with super secret evidence that he says he “hasn’t even made up yet.”

Schiff led the impeachment fight in the House of Representatives with witnesses that didn’t witness anything and other secret evidence that wasn’t presented. Now, he says that he has evidence so damning that he can’t even think of what it could be.

“During this trial,” Schiff said in a press conference, “we will begin to see that there is absolutely no reason for President Trump to be in office still. I mean the evidence that I haven’t made up yet is so bad, it makes me shudder to think about it. I don’t even know if I’ll be able to present it in the Senate it’s so bad.”

Harvard Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz, who will argue the unconstitutionality of the charges before the U.S. Senate impeachment trial, said that Schiff needs to release the evidence that he hasn’t made up yet.

“He needs to get on with it. You can’t just leave everyone hanging. If you’re going to make up evidence, let’s get it done,” Dershowitz said.

Babylon Bee

[SATIRE] In his opening statement at Trump’s impeachment trial, Rep. Adam Schiff reminded the Senate of their solemn duty and the gravity of just what it is they will be discussing at the trial.

Schiff warned that if Trump is not impeached, the American people may have a chance to tamper with the next election.

“If President Trump is not impeached, the American people might get a say in who is president,” Schiff said gravely. “We simply can’t allow that to happen. We must diligently defend our electoral process against electoral outcomes we do not like. If that means seizing power through a sham impeachment trial, so be it.”

“When the Founders wrote that founding document thing, they never imagined there would be electoral outcomes that Democrats did not agree with.”

Democrats also said they even have hard evidence that the 2016 election was compromised by Republicans voting for Trump.

“We know this horrible outcome could happen, because it’s already happened once before.”
