Troy Johnston and his two daughters, ages four and six, stopped at Castle Park on March 30, so the children could enjoy the park’s swings and maze, he told Blue Lives Matter.

A federal appeals court in Illinois ruled Thursday the Trump administration could not withhold public safety grants from cities solely because those cities had so-called “sanctuary” policies protecting illegal immigrants.

The decision by a three-judge panel of the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago said the administration exceeded its authority in establishing a new condition for cities to qualify for the grants. It upheld a temporary injunction issued by a lower court judge this past September.  Continue reading “Federal court rules against Trump’s sanctuary city crackdown efforts”

Iran now effectively has political and military control of four countries: Afghanistan, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen, emboldened by the signing, and then the weak enforcement of the Iran Nuclear Deal. Iran’s Quds Force has successfully trained, equipped and funded its previously beleaguered terror proxies in Hezbollah and Hamas. Within 18-36 months, Iran will be able to hit our allies in the Middle East and Europe with nuclear-armed missiles. For the past 10 years, Iran has been on the march and the West has been on the run.   Continue reading “Jacob Wohl: It’s Time to Mercilessly Bomb Iran”

Over the weekend, the United States led a coordinated attack—along with French and British forces—on the sovereign country of Syria. The attack consisted of hundreds of missiles which were recorded hitting civilian targets and also reportedly struck a cancer research facility. And now, we are learning that all of it was based on an alleged use of sarin gas for which they had no evidence.

According to a report from CNN today, US intelligence agencies have admitted that they were not certain the Assad regime had used the nerve agent sarin against civilians—but launched the massive attack anyway.   Continue reading “US Intel Officials Just Admitted US Bombed Syria with No Proof of Sarin Attack”

Vice president of the United States Joe Biden, who proudly announced “I am a zionist” before taking office, blamed the Branch Davidians in Texas for the fire that took the lives of 76 men, women and children. In reviewing the excellent 1997 documentary  Waco: The Rules of Engagement last month on the 17th anniversary of the federal government orchestrated  massacre near Waco Texas, the final minutes of the film reveal Congressional testimony from the hearings on Waco in which Biden and a gaggle of other disgusting government apologists pronounce that the government was blameless in the entire ordeal. This despite the fact that the Davidian survivors who were charged with murder of federal agents afterwards were acquitted of all charges.  Continue reading “Flashback: Vice President Joe Biden: No improper motive by feds at Waco, the Davidians “committed suicide””

“…let us not get distracted from the bull’s eye, that is from the millenary, Jewish messianic plan which had been concocted thousands of years before any oil had ever been found in the Golan Heights or the Middle East in general. Oil or not, water or not, Israel wants the whole of Syria, she wants the whole of Greater Syria, for one reason and one reason only: GREATER ISRAEL.”
