Weekly update from Judicial Watch

Former Obama advisor David Plouffe has been fined $90,000 by the Chicago Board of Ethics for illegally lobbying Mayor Rahm Emanuel on behalf of his post-White House employer, the Uber taxi company. His Democrat contacts made it easy for him to lobby for his employer with the Democrat mayor.  The problem is that Plouffe never registered as a lobbyist.

Some college students are saying they will castrate themselves if Trump builds the wall.  Yeah, right.  And all those celebrities were going to leave the country if Trump got elected.

Judicial Watch is planning to sue the FBI, CIA, and NSA if they do not hand over records related to the wiretapping of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.

More FAKE NEWS:  Journos are claiming Trump referred to a terror attack in Sweden that never happened!  Oh noes!  Except Trump NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A TERROR ATTACK.  He said Sweden is having terrible problems because of all the refugees they took in, which is true.

Reuters interviewed a captured ISIS soldier who says he reads the Koran all day in his tiny jail cell to become a better person. He also says he raped more than 200 women from Iraqi minorities, something he said was encouraged and even considered virtuous by ISIS leaders.  A total of 5,270 Yazidis were abducted last year, and at least 3,144 are still being held.

A woman Obama appointed to the FEC has submitted her resignation.  She’s apparently been a no show at her job anyway since, it appears, Trump was elected.  What a shocker.  In 2014, she made an attempt to impose FEC regulations on online political web sites, including Drudge.

The Southern Poverty Law Center “reports” that anti-Muslim hate groups shot up from only 34 in 2015 to 101 in 2016.  They got this faux figure by counting the 45 chapters of a single organization as 45 groups.  This same group was listed as a single group in the 2015 report and it’s not a hate group.  They also counted a bar sign as a hate group, because it had a politically incorrect message on it for a while.  They also counted as “hate groups” a store that had posted a sign saying they wouldn’t sell to Clinton supporters or Muslims and an artist who drew a cartoon mocking Mohammed.  They also listed conservative bloggers, the David Horowitz Freedom Center, the American College of Pediatricians, the Family Research Council, and the Jewish Political Action Committee as hate groups.

DEFCON prescribes five graduated levels of readiness (or states of alert) for the U.S. military. It increases in severity from DEFCON 5 (least severe) to DEFCON 1 (most severe) to match varying military situations.

The Myth of the Stolen Supreme Court Seat

2017_02-scalia-seat-wasnt-stolen

The myth of the “stolen seat” stems from the GOP-majority Senate’s refusal to vote last year on President Obama’s nominee to fill Antonin Scalia’s seat.  

But the standard of not confirming a Supreme Court nominee in the final year of a presidency was set by two prominent Democrat leaders, Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer.

Does anyone honestly think that, had the roles been reversed in 2016, and a Democrat-majority Senate faced a Republican lame duck president’s nominee, Sen. Harry Reid would have held a confirmation vote?

Democrat Logic

On Feb 7, 2017, the Washington Post ran an op-ed written by a woman who claims she worked for Hardee’s for many years.

In it, she argued that Andrew Puzder, CEO of the restaurant chain, is unfit to be head of the Labor Department, because he takes home millions while his employees allegedly live in homeless shelters.

How much should we believe about this woman’s story when she misspelled the name of her own son and claimed Puzder forced her to work during a non-existent hurricane?

How much should we care about this woman’s story, given the undeniable fact that counter workers at fast food joints get low wages and lousy benefits, because their jobs require virtually no education or skill?

These are entry level jobs, the kinds of work that teens and newcomers can get to establish that they’re reliable workers.  After working at one of these jobs, people are supposed to advance to better paying gigs.

The family seems to have learned nothing about the work world, since she says her misspelled son now works for McDonald’s.

She says a minimum wage of $15 is a matter of “justice.”

No, honey.  It’s a matter of economics, which is something Puzder understands and you clearly do not.

About the “Nutty 9th”

9th-circuit-map

Trump’s immigration order was banned by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, the SLOWEST of the 12 federal appeals courts. 

Though they typically take 15 months to hand down a decision, they somehow or other found time to squeeze in an immediate judgment against Trump’s executive order, maybe because eighteen of the court’s 25 active judges have been appointed by Democrats.

Former President Barack Obama appointed seven of them.

The 9th is unaffectionately known as the “nutty 9th”, because it is the most liberal and MOST REVERSED court in the nation.

An average of EIGHTY PERCENT of its decisions get OVERTURNED!

Republicans in both House and Senate have introduced similar (though slightly different) bills to reduce the size of the 9th and create a new 13th circuit court.  

Even if the 9th weren’t a ridiculous clown show of judicial activism, its jurisdiction needs to be pared down.  Eleven of them cover 80% of the population; the 9th covers 20%.  That’s just dumb and it needs to be rectified.

2017_02-09-travel-ban-ruling

Judge Napolitano on travel ban ruling:  “The Constitution assigns the decision-making for foreign policy exclusively to the President; even Congress has a subordinate role.”

“The President has a lot of tools that the Congress has given him. One of the tools is the statute that he read yesterday, which we’ve all been talking about, which was exercised by President Carter and by President Obama, a blanket ban on immigrants from given places. The statute specifically says ‘the President on his own by proclamation,’ meaning he doesn’t have to consult with anybody else, ‘can make this decision.’ The decision to ban is not reviewable; it’s not justiciable.  Judges are incapable of second-guessing the President on it.”

This Makes My Blood Boil

I AM SO SICK OF THIS SHIT I COULD PUKE!!!

These leftist bastards get their rocks off bullying people for no better reason than they can’t always get their own way.
Betsy DeVos, the new Education Secretary made a stop for a conference at a Title I school, for mostly lower income students and was greeted with the usual pack of mouthbreathing vermin.

Protesters initially block DeVos from entering DC school
DeVos later made it into Jefferson Middle School Academy in Southwest D.C. for her first visit as secretary to a public school. This was only after a teacher/parent “vigil” blocked the road by the front entrance, and a handful of Black Lives Matter protesters caused problems when DeVos tried to enter through the back entrance.

Protesters shouted “shame, shame” at the secretary as she was led back into her vehicle. One holding a Black Lives Matter sign then stood in front of the van, but was scolded by fellow protesters to “let her leave,” and he stepped aside.

The disruption is the latest in a series of protests against Trump administration officials and policies. DeVos’ nomination was fiercely opposed by teachers unions and Democratic lawmakers in large part over her long support for charter schools and other public school alternatives.

Protesters block DeVos from entering DC school

“Keep giving money to senators and buying your way to the position,” one man holding a Black Lives Matter sign says to her, according to a video from ABC reporter Sam Sweeney. “I hope you’re proud of yourself.”

“Go back,” the protestor yells and she enters the car. “Shame! Shame! Shame!”

DeVos was reportedly able to eventually enter the school for an event that included D.C. schools chancellor.
The GOP mega-donor was met with fierce opposition from Democrats and teachers unions who voiced opposition to her support for charter schools and tuition vouchers.

Senate Democrats held an all-night debate to protest DeVos’s nomination ahead of her confirmation vote.

“This is a sad day for children,” the American Federation of Teachers president said in a statement following DeVos’s confirmation.

IT’S GOING TO BE LIKE THIS ANYTIME A TRUMP APPOINTEE LEAVES HIS HOUSE. THEY’LL BE HOUNDED, HARASSED, AND IN NEED OF ARMED SECURITY BECAUSE OF THIS MINDLESS, SOULLESS RABBLE.
DEVOS IS DESPISED BY THE UNIONS BECAUSE SHE INTENDS TO INITIATE VOUCHER PROGRAMS FOR LOW-INCOME STUDENTS, THREATENING THEIR HOBBY OF INDOCTRINATING CHILDREN RATHER THAN DO THE JOB OF TEACHING THEM.
I’M JUST SICK TO DEATH OF LIBERALS ASSAULTING ANYONE THEY DON’T AGREE WITH.
RANT OVER.

Be Careful What You Wish For

One thing is clear. If the miserable slug from Nevada had not undone the filibuster in his zeal to get rafts of Obama judicial nominees, President Trump would not have a single cabinet member confirmed. Not a one.

  • Education Secretary: Betsy DeVos confirmed on a voted 51-50.
  • Attorney General: Jeff Sessions confirmed 52-47.
  • HHS Secretary: Tom Price confirmed 52-47.

To the surprise of absolutely no one, the injunction against the travel ban was upheld by the ninth circuit by a margin of 3-0.

Sessions had not yet been confirmed and the lawyers from the Justice Department who argued the case were holdovers from the Obama regime, so there was no real motivation to put much effort in their argument.

It is paramount that the Republicans get Neil Gorsuch confirmed to SCOTUS before the case is heard there. With a 4-4 split, if Kennedy sides with the originalists in deciding such action is within the purview of presidential power, the lower court ruling would stand. It will eventually be reinstated, but the when is unknown.

Dianne Feinstein Regrets Filibuster Reform as Senate Confirms More Trump Cabinet Picks
The Senate confirmed Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State with 56 votes; Jeff Sessions as Attorney General with 52 votes; and Betsy DeVos, who barely reached a majority of 51 votes without Vice President Mike Pence’s deciding vote to confirm her as Secretary of Education.

“As we look back, it may well have been better to not have changed the rules.”

Some Democrats remain unapologetic about the decision, however. Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) told IJR he maintains that filibuster reform was essential:

“At the time I thought, ‘I might serve here with a Republican president and I might serve here when there’s a Republican majority.’  We were in a situation where positions that were really important were going vacant for years at a time.”

9th Circuit Refuses to Reinstate Immigration Pause; ‘We Beat You,’ Gov. Tells Trump
Moments after the ruling, Trump tweeted, “SEE YOU IN COURT,” adding that “THE SECURITY OF OUR NATION IS AT STAKE!”

In response, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, a Democrat who leads one of the states that challenged the ban, said: “Mr. President, we just saw you in court, and we beat you.”

The court battle is far from over. An appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court seems likely. That could put the decision in the hands of a divided court that has a vacancy.

Trump’s nominee, Neil Gorsuch, is unlikely to be confirmed in time to take part in any consideration of the ban, which was set to expire in 90 days unless it is changed.

Schumer: ‘We Think We Have Done a Real Service to America’ by Vilifying Trump’s Nominees
Senate Democrats flew a restaurant worker all the way from Los Angeles to Washington on Thursday, to help them portray President Trump’s nominee for Labor Secretary not only as “unqualified,” but also as someone who steals money from workers; looks the other way when workers are sexually harassed; forces people to work for free; punishes them for calling in sick; and fights against raising the minimum wage.

“Puzder called us the worst of the worst and the bottom of the pool. I work myself to the bone just to survive. Why would we want someone who think so little of workers in charge of policies that could impact all of us?” the allegedly victimized woman asked.

On Thursday, Schumer told the same news conference, “It’s disgraceful to put ‘secretary of labor’ and ‘Puzder’ in the same sentence, given his views.”

Schumer said Democrats hope they can force the withdrawal of Puzder’s nomination, but even if they can’t, it’s all about laying the groundwork to stymie the Trump administration:

While You Were Sleeping, Tom Price Was Confirmed As Health And Human Services Secretary
When Jeff Sessions was confirmed to be the 84th Attorney General of the United States Wednesday night, a vote was held to move Rep. Tom Price’s (R-GA) Health and Human Services nomination forward for a final vote.  Around 2:15 A.M this morning Price was confirmed in a 52-47 vote.

Liberal Ninth Circuit Court Is Overturned in Recent Years 80% of Time

The Ninth Circuit Court ruled against President Trump and continued to block his travel ban on Thursday.  The Ninth Circuit is the most liberal court in the country — and is the most reversed court in the country.

2010, perhaps seeking to reclaim its position at the top of the heap, the Ninth Circuit was reversed a startling 19 times (79 percent), three times as many reversals as most circuits had cases before the Supreme Court. The same pattern continued in the 2011 (71 percent) and 2012 terms (86 percent), when the Ninth Circuit was reversed more than twice as many times as most circuits had cases before the Court.

The Sincerest Form of Flattery

FIRST OFF, I’D LIKE YOU TO LIFT UP CHRISSY’S WARRIOR PRINCESS IN PRAYER; SHE WAS ADMITTED TO THE E.R. LAST NIGHT WITH PREMATURE BIRTH PAINS. SHE’S ONLY 35 WEEKS AND NEEDS GOD’S INTERVENTION. I PRAY FOR MY DEAR FRIEND EVERY DAY. WE’RE BOTH PRETTY MUCH HOUSEBOUND, BUT AT LEAST I CAN GET OUT IN THE MORNING.

Actually, more like great minds think alike. Or, if you will, two people looking at a duck and saying: ‘That’s a duck.’

Liberals are dreadfully simple to figure out once you understand their goals. Go full Alinsky…to hell with the rules, just seize power by any means that justify the outcome. I came across this in the New York Post and said to myself: “Self, this looks eerily familiar.”

Democrats’ empty anti-Trump stunts have made the Senate a circus
Perhaps the sound and fury will cease by the time Neil Gorsuch’s Supreme Court nomination comes up. At least nine Democratic senators have said they oppose a filibuster, and that includes well-left-of-center types like Chris Coons (Del.), Dick Durbin (Ill.) and Richard Blumenthal (Conn.).

On the other hand, the party’s base hasn’t yet started demanding scorched-earth tactics on the high-court fight, and the senators have plenty of time to “discover” reasons to change their minds.

Until top Democrats are willing to stand up to the angry left, the kabuki theater will continue.

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY HAS LOST ITS MIND… AND ITS SOUL
My theory is that meeting back in early January laid the groundwork for how Congressional Democrats were going to prevent Donald Trump from being able to assemble his Cabinet.

I think they nailed down the strategies they would use to demagogue, slander and delay the Cabinet confirmations.

But it’s more than that.

I also believe it was this meeting with the Community Organizer that laid out the plans for the protests and obstructions we’ve been witnessing from Democrat leaders over the last few weeks.

Look, nothing the Democrats do is spontaneous. Nothing.

And all of it would come to a head as soon as the Community Organizer-in-Chief was safely out of Washington. That way, Obama could appear to remain out of the fray.

But trust me, this fray has his fingerprints all over it.

It’s just the kind of agitation and disruption Barack Obama perfected during his time in Chicago.

No president has ever had so few cabinet members confirmed at this late date, just as no president has been confronted with such open talk of assassination and impeachment.

Speaking of which, have you heard a single Democrat decry the talk of assassination? Have you heard a single Democrat denounce the violence carried out by so-called protesters?

In any case, the responsibility of leadership eludes him. Democrats created their own problems by blindly agreeing to all of Barack Obama’s ultra-liberal policies, and the fed-up response of Republican voters was to nominate Trump.

Democrats scrap all-nighters after DeVos, Sessions votes

Senate Democrats on Wednesday abandoned the idea of holding another all-night “talk-a-thon” to protest a key Cabinet nominee of President Trump’s, after holding two back-to-back all nighters to protest two other nominees.

Democratic leaders didn’t offer a public explanation for the move, but it came after their all-night debate sessions Monday and Tuesday failed to move the needle on Trump’s picks.

Mega Sarcasm from African-American Conservative @ Facebook

“I see the point of the many Progressives outraged by Ted Cruz’s reminder today that the Democratic Party was once the home of the Ku Klux Klan.

“After all, that was when the KKK used terrorist tactics and threats of violence to intimidate Republicans, even some White ones, into swearing to only support Democrat candidates and Democrat causes.

“Shame on Cruz for bringing up this ugly history. Things are so obviously different today.”
