'Nat Geo' is unashamedly fake news personified

To the charlatans at National Geographic, if a lie supports your ideological views, it's okay to use it.

"I'd do it again," said the liar who admitted to pushing the "fake news" story featuring a gut-wrenching video of a starving polar bear and blaming it on climate change.

After an entire year, the fakazine finally admitted to the lie. This was the rag's most viral video in their history. The starving bear is seen amid the narrative that the poor creature's imminent death was caused by a change in the weather.

But the truth is, the story is totally void of actual evidence to make that claim.

"We had lost control of the narrative," the photographer Cristina Mittermeier said, which is a fancy way of saying she lied. She explained the deception in the rag which was titled "Starving-Polar-Bear Photographer Recalls What Went Wrong" for the magazine's hot summer August issue and admitted the images or the emaciated bear were meant to scare folks about climate change and lied again implying that people took the image "literally," as if they should have seen through the lie.

"Photographer Paul Nicklen and I are on a mission to capture images that communicate the urgency of climate change [and not imply that polar bears can die of disease, illness, injury, old age, or poor hunting skills.]

"Documenting its effects on wildlife hasn't been easy," she wrote, implying that, due to the difficulty of honestly documenting and illustrating climate change's effect on wildlife, one is allowed to make crap up to support their message.

I could go on with the balderdash and covering up with what she said, but suffice it to say, there's a reason Trump has gotten so much traction on his claims of "fake news," and why the public no longer trusts journalists.

Not surprisingly, Mittermeier said she'd do it again if she had the chance, since the images pushed a supposed larger truth. Her truth, which is a non sequitur.

And National Geographic is still in business to the real science deniers.

NY State Dems shut down child's lemonade stand

A 7-year-old entrepreneur, little Brendan Mulvaney, has been put out of business by the bureaucrats at the New York State Health Department.

The leftists closed down his lemonade stand because he was charging a fair price to his customers and undercutting the rip-off price the nearby county fair was charging: $0.75 vs. $7.00!

The shutdown happened after greedy vendors at the fair complained he was taking away their business, and while they could have broken a few bones, they decided just turning him in would be less of a hassle.

Young Mulvaney was selling lemonade, water and Sno-cones from the porch of his parent's home, located right outside the Saratoga County Fair in upstate New York. [They also have a fine racetrack there].

A woman clad in a Health Department tee-shirt showed up on Friday and shut down the kid's operation because he didn't have a permit.

Perhaps he would have gotten a permit, but he is too short to reach the counter.

The state officials have batted it back and forth, first they said the Health Department doesn't regulate lemonade stands, and they initially apologized when the story went public.

"We are working to better understand the situation but in the meantime want to assure the community that DOH does not issue permits for or oversee lemonade stands," spokesperson Jill Montag told The Post.

But just 24 hours later, the DOH did "an Obama" and said a permit was required after all. It costs $30 for the year and they even said they would help the family get the permit [by providing little Brendan with a step-stool].

There was no reaction from the block of wood known as Gov. Andrew Cuomo or his office.

Texas 'honor-killer' found guilty!

Local Spelling Bee Winnur

A double-murder honor killing trial in Texas, [not Afghanistan or Pakistan, as you may have thought] has finally come to an end. A Texas man was found guilty of killing  his son-in-law, Coty Beavers, and his daughter's best friend, Gelareh Bagherzadeh, in 2012.

Jordanian-American Ali Mahwood-Awad Irsan, 60, was originally planning on killing five people, including his own daughter.

One of Irsan's two wives [which is illegal in the U.S., but apparently the law looks the other way in certain cases] Shmou Ali Alrawabdeh, 40, is alleged to have helped him carry out the murders.

Irsan married Shmou in Jordan when she was all of 15-years-old and he was 35. Between his two wives, Irsan has 12 children. But Alrawabdeh testified against her husband and got a deal.

The prosecution alleged Irsan murdered the pair because he was angry his own daughter, Nesreen, wanted to marry Beavers, who was a non-Muslim.

The prosecution also alleged that Irsan was also planning on killing Nesreen but being a caring father who put his daughter's needs above his own, wanted her to suffer first and so he killed Beavers and her friend.

In 2014, Irsan and Shmou were arrested and daughter, Nadia Irsan, then 30 and a U.S. citizen. They were charged federally with conspiracy to defraud the government, theft of public money and benefits fraud. This investigation also led to charges against Ali Irsan for murder in a state district court.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg wants to sleep on the bench until she's 90

"They will have to pry my copy of the "Communist Manifesto" from my cold, dead hands before I give up my job on the Supreme Court," Ruth Bader Ginsburg told a group of confused liberal journalists after waking up from her nap.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 85, is hopeful she'll live to see 90, but watching her crap-out in the middle of public events, her head resting on her tired, boyish bosom, as her snoring keeps mosquitos at bay, makes one question her mental acuteness and her ability to even remain on the nation's highest court even one more day.

But Ginsburg would have us believe she has at least five more years on SCOTUS.

She spoke in New York after a play about the late Justice Antonin Scalia, "The Originalist" ended.

"I'm a young, vibrant 85," she said Sunday. "My senior colleague, Justice John Paul Stevens, he stepped down when he was 90, so I think I have about at least five more years before I hang up my shingle. Which reminds me . . . my shingles are killing me."

She even hired law clerks for her next two terms, if she lives that long, and hopefully she will . . . in retirement.

Director of "The Originalist," Molly Smith, asked her what keeps her "hopeful" [about the future of the country]. Ginsburg cited her late husband, Marty.

"My dear spouse would say that the true symbol of the United States is not the bald eagle--it's the pendulum," she began. "And when it goes very far in one direction you can count on its swinging back."

"I told Marty, 'Marty, you always say that. Get some new material--you're making me crazy.'"

Marty was wrong. Bald eagle is the correct answer.

Trump supporters can sue San Jose cops after 2016 attack as they stood by and let riots ensue

Screen-grab/Fox News

Trump supporters were pelted with eggs, punches, had their clothing ripped off and now they plan to sue the San Jose police who allegedly failed to protect them and added to the danger they faced.

The Trump supporters were attending a rally at the McEnery Convention Center, many wore MAGA hats. They were met with hundreds of anti-Trump trouble makers as they were shepherded out of the building via a single exit to ensure an easier target for the miscreants to attack them as a group.

The suit's 20 plaintiffs claim in a lawsuit that the cops knowingly ordered them to leave through an exit where the scumbags were waiting for them, despite the existence of a safer route and other exits where they could avoid a conflict, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

The plaintiffs say they were beaten or struck by objects thrown by the [cowardly] protesters. Initial accounts said that at least one woman was struck by an egg after she was surrounded by the brave pussywillows.

One plaintiff alleged that an officer told her police were instructed to not intervene in the scuffle.

Screen-grab/Fox News

The lawsuit said three people were allegedly arrested for assaulting the brave police officers at the scene, but no arrests were made for attacking the Trump supporters--that was not only allowed, apparently it was the design of the city.

The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco said on Friday that if the allegations are true, "the officers acted with deliberate indifference to a known and obvious danger" and violated the constitutional rights of Trump supporters [aka Americans].

San Jose Police Chief Eddie Garcia praised his cops after the rally for "their effectiveness and their restraint," while city lawyers said cops did not create [nor ameliorate] the danger and should not be second-guessed for legitimate law enforcement decisions.

What a load of garbage. Even the court said the cops on duty, according to the allegations, knew about the violence at past pro-Trump rallies.

"The attendees allege the officers shepherded them into a violent crowd of protesters and actively prevented them from reaching safety," Judge Dorothy Nelson said in the 3-0 ruling that upheld a federal judge's refusal to dismiss the suit. "The officers continued to implement this plan even while witnessing the violence firsthand."

They should really be ashamed of themselves.

If the plaintiffs can prove their allegations, they would demonstrate police increased the danger to Trump supporters and knowingly exposed them to risk.

The San Jose City's shyster lawyer, Dick Doyle, told the Chronicle that the city disagrees with the court's view of the law on police liability and his office would consult with the City Council on a possible appeal. Thus, this case may go as far as the Supreme Court, which would likely give a fair judgment now that there will be a conservative majority soon.

British Labour Party suspend councillor for claiming Jews drink blood

Jeremy Corbyn
Head Labour Party anti-Semite 

Britain's Labour Party suspended one of their wankers for posting his belief that it is a Jewish ritual to drink blood.

The post went up Friday on Damien Enticott's Facebook page. He's a councillor in Bognor Regis on the southern coast of anti-Semitic old England.

The troglodyte told the Jewish Chronicle that he wasn't the guy who posted it. He said he lived in a shared house and has a computer that doesn't have a password, proving once again that he's as stupid as a can of Play Doh. Who doesn't have a password on their computer?

"The statement that was made wasn't by myself," the pinhead claimed. "I don't actually share anti-Semitic views at all."

A Labour Party spokesman told Jewish newspapers that Enticott, clearly the village idiot, was suspended from the party pending an investigation.

"The Labour Party takes all complaints of anti-Semitism extremely seriously and we are committed to challenging and campaigning against it in all forms," the spokesman said. "Complaints about anti-Semitism are fully investigated in line with our rules and procedures and any appropriate disciplinary action is taken."

Translation: Enticott will have to stand in the corner for ten minutes and will not get his cookies and milk.

In Enticott's post, he seems to be "correcting" an original post on a page titled "Black Pride."

The schmuckbuckle writes: "This is done only by Talmud Jews. Talmud Jews are parasites!" and then goes on to say that "Talmud Jews" devalue the lives of non-Jews.

But the real clincher: "All Talmuds need executing!" the post said.

Adam Langleben, a Jewish former councillor from Barnet in North London, first posted a screenshot of Enticott's alleged words on Twitter.

Earlier this year, Langleben wrote a piece in the New Statesman regarding the failure of Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to deal with anti-Semitism in the party and how it was driving away Jewish voters for some reason Corbyn couldn't imagine.

Antifa Soccer Cup for Tolerance ends in intolerant brawl on the pitch

Zwickau, Germany -- An "anti-racism" soccer tournament had to be cancelled this year after two refugee teams got into a violent fight during the final. Players from both teams went at each other on the pitch, and racism cannot be ruled out.

The two teams are composed of immigrants, one of which was overwhelmingly Arab/Muslim, according to local media. The other team is predominantly African, which may have sparked the racist fight.

Arab Muslim racism against blacks is significant, and blacks are still held as slaves in Islamic majority countries. Even today, many Muslim Arabs refer to blacks as "abeed" or "abd," meaning slave and black--the equivalent of the 'N' word, a inconvenient fact ignored by Antifa and the "anti-racism" industry.

The brawl between the two refugee teams was attributed to “different temperaments” and became so violent, the event had to be called off.

Eyewitnesses reported seeing a sudden outbreak of violence during the game instigated by an argument between players from the "Red Tree" team and "Antifa soccer club" Marienthal United 08's refugee squad.

As the situation escalated, people "rushed as fast as they could" to escape the brawl. One "horrified" witness told the leftist Swiss tabloid Blick, a paper that before the match featured an article promising "fair play, fun,  creativity, tolerance and solidarity" were absolutely going to be on display at the event.

Antifa. What were they thinking?

The cup co-director René Hahn, a dude, told journalists the incident is being dealt with, but the future of the event, now in its seventh year, is not up for discussion. And if you have a problem with that, Hahn will punch you in the nose and kick you when you're on the ground.

Organizers blame the violence on the conflict environments the players came from, adding that Zwickau is "no place" for "racism and every type of discrimination."  

But apparently, it is.

Leftist 'therapists' discover Trump Anxiety Disorder

Try Googling "The wildest quotes about Donald Trump" and all you'll get are his own wild quotes. But while Trump obviously speaks in hyperbolic terms, the left is guilty of their share of over-the-top statements which have a poor relationship with the truth.

Now therapists are claiming that there has been an increase in anxiety among the left, who think in hyperbolic terms and believe such tripe as the world is coming to an end under President Trump.

The leftists are calling it "Trump Anxiety Disorder" but it's really still "Trump Derangement Syndrome."

A report from CBC News in Canada says that since Trump's election, U.S. mental health professionals have witnessed an increase in patients attributing stress to politics and the prevalent "symptom" of this bull crap "disorder" is feeling as if the world is going to end.

Kind of like the economy is going to plummet if Trump gets elected. Kind of like the stock market is going to crash and never recover if Trump gets elected.

Kind of like bull crap.

Elisabeth LaMotte, founder of the D.C. Counseling and Psychotherapy Center in Washington, D.C., claims that some of her patients feel "on edge" about the decisions Trump makes, [like lowering taxes, meeting with Kim Jong un, having a dialog with Putin, keeping the military strong with increased funding, supporting the V.A., nominating conservatives to the Supreme Court, and confronting news outlets like CNN and MSNBC for playing games with truth in journalism] but didn't enumerate which decisions she was referring to.

"It's very disorienting and constantly unsettling," the questionable LaMotte said.

Something that, in her words, is 'disorienting' means that it confuses a person as to who they are, where they are, and what the time is. It can be one of those, two,  or all three facets of orientation. If one of her patients is disoriented and blames it on Trump, I suggest they be confronted on that and the therapist delve a bit deeper into their psyches, because they're full of bull crap.

It is entirely possible the actual cause of anxiety among leftists comes from within their own group.

They have the wild-eyed Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) asking that activists confront members of Congress. The bat crap crazy senator spoke Wednesday at the National Conference on Ending the world Homelessness in Washington, D.C.

He implored his audience to take action and to "Go to the Hill today. Then said, "Please, get up in the face of some congresspeople."

Imagine the anxiety some in the snowflake crowd felt when Booker called for confronting members of congress.

But our favorite leftist with the lowest IQ, Maxine Waters, not only wants to "Impeach Forty-five!" but is also calling for leftists to harass everyone in the Trump administration when they go to eat in a restaurant or at a gas station, or anywhere they're seen in public.

That might be one of the reasons some on the left feel anxiety. They are able to see her call for confrontation and that can lead to violence, just like Cory Booker's words can do the same.

This has got to stop and it must stop now, before someone gets hurt or killed.

There is no "Trump Anxiety Disorder." There is only "Trump Derangement Syndrome" and "Hillary Innocence Delusional Disorder."

Can the FBI be as corrupt as they appear?

Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is demanding answers from the FBI after the agency admitted to working with the far-left leaning Southern Poverty Law Center.

The FBI has a long history of collaborating with the SPLC, a group that labels Christian groups such as the Christian Family Research Council (FRC) as a hate group, while giving a free pass to actual hate groups such as Antifa.

In a 2009 memo, the FBI described the SPLC as a "credible" organization. Credible. How incredible they would do so.

In a letter obtained by Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight," Gaetz said the FBI "admitted to working with the SPLC," which he calls "surprising and worrisome."

SPLC labels groups hate groups based on their politics, not actual hatred. For example, ACT for America, founded by Brigitte Gabriel to educate the public about the ideology of Islamic terrorism, is labeled a hate group and claims that it is 'anti-Muslim." It is by no means anti-Muslim; it is anti-extremism. Muslims are people, not the extremist ideology the group opposes. SPLC has clearly mischaracterized her good work.

Gaetz pointed out that after the FRC was labeled a hate group by SPLC, Floyd Corkins shot an FRC employee and admitted later that he targeted the group as the SPLC labeled them it as "anti-gay."

The FRC sees gay sex as a sin but does not hate gay people--they pray for them and support those who refuse to bake a cake for gay weddings, for example. That isn't hate.

"The SPLC's conflation of mainstream political advocacy groups with legitimate hate groups and domestic terror groups is absurd, frequently indiscriminate and dangerous," Gaetz said.

The alleged relationship between SPLC and the FBI are unclear, but what is clear is the 2009 memo, and that SPLC has briefed the FBI on alleged domestic terror threats in the U.S.

Gaetz's letter requests more information on the ties the FBI has to the group, including how much credence the FBI gives to SPLC designations of "hate groups" and what input, if any, the bureau provides to the hateful SPLC.

Although the DOJ wouldn't confirm nor deny any relationship, Attorney General Jeff Sessions ordered that any such relationships be re-evaluated.

"The attorney genera has directed the FBI to re-evaluate their relationships with groups like this to ensure the FBI does not partner with any group that discriminates," a spokesperson said in a statement.

The SPLC recently issued an apology and a $3.3 million settlement to Maajid Nawaz and his organization, the Quilliam Foundation, for including them in a list of "anti-Muslim extremists."

Their walk-back went like this:

"Although we may have our differences with some of the positions that Mr. Nawaz and Quilliam have taken, we recognize that they have made important contributions to efforts to promote pluralism and that they are most certainly not anti-Muslim extremists," the statement said.

Nawaz is a Muslim himself, and at one time in his life, was a terrorist but has since reformed and is now a strong anti-terrorism advocate. His understanding of the terrorist mind is accurate and useful in the fight against terrorism.

The SPLC would rather be politically correct than correct. Just Google these morons and understand who the real hater is. Some on their hate group list is quite accurate, but it's the groups they leave out that's most disturbing, along with some they label as a hate group.

The SPLC cannot suck enough and the fact the FBI even considers their political tripe is unsettling.

Canadian man becomes a Canadian 'woman' to save a few bucks

A Canadian dude changed his gender to female to get cheaper car insurance and got almost $1,100 savings. [That's about $2.75 U.S.--just kidding].

CBC News reported that a man in his early 20's known only as "David" wanted to purchase a Chevy Cruze and was quoted around $4,500 for insurance. He then asked the agent if he could save money if he was a woman and was told the insurance bill would be reduced to $3,400, or $1,100 less.

David, [being totally unaware how insurance companies assess risk and thus determine their charge for coverage] told CBC News, "I was pretty angry about that. And I didn't feel like getting screwed over any more."

He asked the agent to change his gender on the policy but his request was denied.

So he went to his doctor and said that he identified as a woman and then went and changed his the gender on his birth certificate and drivers license.

"It was pretty simple," (s)he said [I don't want to get sued]. "I just basically asked for it and told then that I identified as a woman, or I'd like to identify as a woman, and he wrote me the letter I wanted."

When David first applied to change his gender, the law required a doctor's note, but since then, that requirement has been removed and anyone can say they identify as whatever they want, even a farm animal, and nobody will stop them.

Not David

David says he "took advantage of a loophole" and feels he "beat the system."

"I did it for cheaper insurance," (s)he said. Now (s)he saves a whopping $91 a month because the statistics on automobile safety are on the side of women.

David says (s)he did it to target the insurance industry [he still doesn't understand how premiums are determined] not to insult the mentally ill transgender community. But still, many people of all genders and identities are spitting mad.

One woman tweeted her anger calling David's actions "perjury" and a "crime."

"I think it cheapens the whole process. It sort of casts doubt on everybody else's motives for making those changes," Marie Little, former chair of the Trans Alliance Society. "I think it gives ammunition to people who want to take rights away from trans people."

Yes, 'trans people' have the right to pee where they want and transgender women [who are actually men with a delusion] even have the right to compete in sports against actual women.

But it isn't as if David plans to compete against a woman in wrestling. He's just a cheapskate.

San Francisco banning straws, banning free lunch, banning thought

San Francisco is having a phenomenal week. They've banned plastic straws to save the world from total annihilation and now they're banning free lunches to save restaurants.

It would be funny if it wasn't true.

President Trump referred to certain foreign countries as "S**t-holes. He was wrong to use that term but he certainly would be accurate if he referred to San Francisco as such.

While the city is concerned about the use of plastic straws destroying the environment, (one town is fining restaurant servers $1,000 or 6 months in jail for providing a straw and the same fine for every straw thereafter to a customer) they don't seem to care about the homelessness problem and the environment that is being ruined by the depositing of human feces and garbage by this population on the streets of their town.

The straw ban also prevents vendors from using takeout containers made with fluorinated chemicals while also preventing people with debilitating oral problems from drinking or eating liquified food. Screw 'em!

"The legislation prohibits eateries from using plastic anti-splashers, stirrers and other plastic items that environmentalists say are too small to be recycled properly," Newsmax reported. "Retailers would no longer be able to sell the items starting July 2019. In addition, food and drink vendors would be allowed to dispense cutlery, napkins, condiments and lids only on request or through self-service stations."

Feces on the streets, however, will remain intact.

"It's a movement not just happening in San Francisco but nationally and internationally," said Peter Gallotta, a moron who works for the city's Department of Environment. "The larger elephant in the room," he said, trying to sound original, "is the single-use disposable culture [how redundant] we find ourselves in, and straws are the epitome of this unnecessary daily waste."

The city will probably soon consider the banning of disposable diapers if this nonsense continues.

The statistic often cited that suggests Americans use 500 million straws per day is not only crazy, it's based on the research of a 9-year-old. With only about 300 million people living in the USA, everyone would have to use more than one straw per day on average.

As far as all plastic waste being dumped into the ocean, five countries are responsible: China, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines, according to a study by Ocean Conservancy and McKinsey. The United States ships much of our waste plastic to China for recycling and they reportedly dump it in the ocean.

But the nanny state isn't finished with merely a straw problem, man, they're upset with companies that provide their employees with free lunches. It's hurting the businesses of neighborhood eateries and they're complaining and might get their way.

It's possible that companies that provide free lunch want their employees happy and maybe not have to go out onto the streets where they then have to walk looking down to avoid human excrement. Plus, it would probably destroy their appetites anyway.

Straws are not the problem in San Francisco. According to Yahoo News, the city hands out an estimated 400,000 drug syringes every month to reduce HIV among drug users, they say, and out of that number, 245,000 syringes get properly discarded in the city's 13 syringe access and disposal sites. But the remaining 155,000 end up on the streets, sidewalks and parks, making the straw problem a non-issue.

The city spends about $30 million a year to clean human feces and syringes off the sidewalks, according to NBC News.

Now who in the world would want to walk the streets to go to lunch when they can stay at work and get it for free?

Chelsea Handler wants Trump's constitutional rights removed

Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images

First we had Maxine Waters claiming to be sent by God to oppose President Trump, now we have Chelsea Handler claiming that Trump should not be allowed to have his First Amendment rights because she doesn't like what he says.

And because Hillary Clinton lost the election.

Handler called on Twitter to "remove" Trump's account saying "No leader of any country should be tweeting threats to people and other countries."

"Can @Twitter just remove Trump's account, already? No leader of any country should be tweeting threats to people and other countries," the so-called comedian and untalented actress tweeted Friday.

"That would actually force him to talk more and explain policies and answer questions on tape, and we all know how that goes," she added.

She never explained what she meant by the "Trump threat" that elicited her tweet, which she has every right to post. But it came after Trump tweeted about his former lawyer Michael Cohen which claimed Cohen lied about POTUS allegedly being aware of a meeting Donald Jr. had with a Russian lawyer to get himself out of an "unrelated jam."

Trump tweeted:

"I did NOT know of the meeting with my son, Don Jr. Sounds to me like someone is trying to make up stories in order to get himself out of an unrelated jam (Taxi cabs maybe?). He even retained Bill and Crooked Hillary's lawyer. Gee, I wonder if they helped him make the choice."

I wish Trump didn't tweet so much about so many issues, but it's his constitutional right as an America citizen. And Chelsea Handler is a fascist to want him stripped of his rights.

BREAKING: Obama knowingly funded an Al Qaeda affiliate, report reveals

Barack Hussein Obama knowingly funded an Al-Qaeda affiliate, a new report revealed on Wednesday.

Knowingly--that's the operant word.

The Obama administration provided an Islamic terrorist-financing organization with hundreds of thousands of dollars, and just because the group doesn't personally do the beheading and killing with their own hands, doesn't make them any less culpable for the terrorism of their henchmen.

Obama was well aware the Khartoum-based Islamic Relief Agency (ISRA) was a terrorist-finance agency--it was designated such for a decade by the government. In spite of this, his administration approved the release of well over $100,000 AFTER they were informed ISRA was affiliated with Osama bin Laden and Maktab al-Khidamat (MK), which later became al-Qaeda.

ISRA received a $200,000 taxpayer-funded grant from the Obama administration, which released no less than $115,000 to the terrorist-financing organization, according to National Review:

According to the U.S. Treasury, in 1997 ISRA established formal cooperation with MK. By 2000, ISRA had raised $5 million for bin Laden's group. The Treasury Department notes that ISRA officials even sought to help "relocate [bin Laden] to secure safe harbor for him." It further reports that ISRA raised funds in 2003 in Western Europe specifically earmarked for Hamas suicide bombings.

Perhaps this was Obama's strategy for defeating the extremists--let them blow themselves up with explosives we paid for.

The 2004 designation included all of ISRA's branches, including a U.S. office called the Islamic American Relief Agency (IARA-USA). Eventually it became known that this American branch had illegally transferred over $1.2 million to Iraqi insurgents and other terror groups, including, reportedly, the Afghan terrorist Gulbuddin Hekmatyar.

In July 2014 the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) approved $723,405 of our taxpayer funds to be sent to World Vision Inc., and from that money, "$200,000 was to be directed to a sub-grantee: ISRA," the National Review noted.

This was done even though World Vision told USAID in 2014 that ISRA was on the terrorist organization watch list and subsequently had to wait until the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) could assess the situation before releasing any funds to these scum-buckets.

In January 2015, OFAC confirmed that ISRA was a designated terrorist organization and rejected World Vision from getting "a license to engage in transactions with [ISRA]."

Even though OFAC ruled ISRA to be a terrorist organization, World Vision wrote to OFAC and Jeremy Konyndyk of the Obama administration (who then served as director of USAID's Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance) requesting to apply for a new license from USAID to pay ISRA "monies owed for work performed."

Larry Meserve, USAID's mission director for Sudan, asserted that World Vision argued that if they didn't pay ISRA "their whole program will be jeopardized." ...

Low and behold, on May 7, 2015--after "close collaboration and consultation with the Department of State" OFAC went ahead and issued a license to World Vision International, a World Vision affiliate. The license authorized a "one-time transfer of approximately $125,000 to ISRA," whereby "$115,000 was for services performed under the sub-award with USAID" and $10,000 was "for an unrelated funding arrangement between Irish Aid and World Vision."

This is exactly why terrorist organizations grew and prospered under the Obama administration.

"[In 2014], when the U.S. first began its campaign against the terror group, ISIS had a presence in seven countries," The Hill reported in 2016. "That figure rose to 13 in 2015, and today the White House document shows that ISIS is operating in 18 countries."

And to demonstrate just where Obama's sympathies lied, he killed a huge investigation into Hezbollah, allowing them to "become one of the biggest transnational organized crime groups in the world," DEA supervisory agent Jack Kelly told Politico.

Barack Obama tried to convince the public that his failure to reduce or contain terrorism never happened and "the number of terrorist incidents [had] not substantially increased," even the left-leaning Politifact rated his statement as "mostly false."

And John Brennan, the guy who voted for a Communist, calls President Trump a "traitor."

But what's breathtaking is how the left continuously gets away with their seditious behavior.

Maxine Waters told by God (Obama) to stop Trump

Someone laughing about living
rent-free in someone's head

"When God sends you to do something, you just do it!" the low IQ California Democrat said to a church filled with Obama supporters [aka Trump-haters].

Waters, who speaks as if she's three sheets to the wind, has coined the slogan "Impeach Forty-five, Impeach Forty-five, Impeach Forty-five." Ironically, that number also coincides with her IQ and she has a certain fondness for it and sugar cones without the ice cream.

Waters has also gone out of her way to encourage others to go out of their way and harass members of the Trump administration, which is probably unconstitutional, but as a leftist politician, she has nothing to fear.

She spoke at a church sermon in Los Angeles on Sunday saying that she's on a freaking divine mission to destroy the Trump presidency and f**k up the members therein any way possible.

She didn't say it in those words, but in her heart that's exactly what she meant, because her God is Barack Obama, and when he refuses to allow the new presidential administration to function without his criticism, Waters listens. Perhaps he'll throw her a political bone.

"You've gotta know that I'm here to do the work that I was sent to do," she told the naive congregation at the First AME Church, and as pastor said to me when I came in this morning, 'When God sends you to do something, you just do it!'"

Never happy Waters

The crowd went wild, tearing up and shouting religious slogans "Impeach Forty-five! Impeach Forty-five! Impeach Forty-five!" the screamed in the jasmine of their collective mind.

"So, I have a message. I'm going back to Washington tomorrow morning. I'm going to tell them pastor told me to come here and just do it!" she concluded, using the Nike slogan because the crowd had already used hers.

The delusion Waters told the angry Christian mob that "Russia elected this president." And she knows this because she has crystal balls and 'hears stuff' from on high or from being high. She attacked Trump for meeting with Putin and not telling her what they talked about--her inquiring little mind wants to know.

"We never dreamed we'd have someone in the White House who was divisive, who could not tell the truth, and who was intent on not making America great again, but taking America down!" she hollered as the crowd hollered back.

I guess Obama doesn't count in the divisive category because he is her god and he made America great again but nobody realized that when they didn't get to keep their doctor and health care plan. Nobody realized how racial tension grew enormously under Barack and along with that growth, came the birth and growth of ISIS.

Waters went after Trump's health care changes. I suspect she doesn't agree with his new policy of allowing terminally ill people to try experimental drugs.

We know she doesn't like the tax cuts.

She also criticized him on the separation of migrant families who come across the U.S.-Mexican border illegally and get separated from who they claim to be their kids [although 20 percent of the time, they're lying]. All Trump is doing is enforcing the law--something his predecessor refused to do, after a while.

But people who bring kids across the border know that if they're caught, they're going to be separated from them. They also know that there is a perfectly legal process in which they can cross the border and apply for asylum, except they usually don't require asylum--they require handouts or jobs.

If illegal migrants voted Republican, we wouldn't have this problem, and anyone with a brain would know that, which is why Waters is clueless.

Last week a group of scumcrumpets demonstrators burned an American flag and stomped on it just outside Waters' L.A. office while shouting, "America was never great!"

The reason they can demonstrate that way is exactly why America is great. And it seems as if people are trying to get into America, not out. Certainly the demonstrators have the right to leave, but they never do. They just stay in the basement.

FYI, Maxine Waters was named most corrupt member of Congress 4 times and passed 3 bills. She needs to look in the mirror [and hope it doesn't look back].

Muslim Brotherhood-tied activist behind Toronto jihadi's family statement

Toronto Chief of Police Mark Saunders says there is "no evidence to support" any ties to Faisal Hussain with ISIS, despite the latter's claim that the 29-year-old killer was a "soldier" for their jihad against the non Muslim world, and despite the belief by Canadian investigators that he visited ISIS websites and may have expressed support for the terror group, according to CBS News' senior investigative producer Pat Milton.

ISIS claimed one of its "soldiers" carried out the attack in response to their calls of targeting U.S.-led coalition posted on their social media channels.

But Saunders insists that all areas of the Toronto Police Services have been involved at every level, claiming "At this stage, we have no evidence to support these claims."

Federal Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale said there was no national security risk following the attack.

The National Council of Canadian Muslims [previously known as CAIR-Canada] has ties to both Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.

You may be aware that the killer's family alleged in a slick statement that Hussain was mentally ill, with a long history of psychosis. But more information has been uncovered regarding the actual author of that statement.

In an article in the Toronto Sun, titled "Meet the spin doctor behind the Hussain family," Anthony Furey exposes the activist behind the family statement.  Mohammed Hashim [yes, you guessed his first name] is the guy, and an activist who reportedly committed himself to "framing a new narrative for Muslims in Canada," and creating a "national political movement."

His statement about the Hussain family's "deepest condolences to the families who are now suffering on account of our son's horrific actions" which then went on to claim that "our son had severe mental health challenges, struggling with psychosis and depression his entire life," was orchestrated by Hashim, an organizer for the Toronto and York Regional Labour Council

Not the family who released the statement.

Hashim is heavily involved with supporting NDP [New Democratic Party, a super far-left, almost communist party] candidates, and is viewed as a driving force behind the National Council of Canadian Muslims. [Remember, they support known terrorist organizations like Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.]

But Canadian authorities are sticking to their story supporting the family's unsubstantiated claim that Faisal Hussain was mentally ill and a "lone wolf."

There are no "lone wolves" in global jihad.

Maybe the family will produce documented proof that their son was psychotic his entire life in Canada. All they'd need to show is his medication prescriptions and psychiatric documentation.

But even if they can, the truth is that extremist Islam is itself a mental illness.

An 18-year-old female and a 10-year-old girl were killed and 13 injured by Hussain's jihad.

ISIS making a comeback in Iraq

Baquba, Iraq -- (Reuters) Just when you think you've gotten rid of all the vermin in the toolshed you turn on the light and see the beggars run for the hills. Just months after Iraq declared "mission accomplished," the vermin known as Islamic State are back with their campaign of killing and kidnapping.

Now that their hopes of establishing a Caliphate in the Middle East has been dashed, [as opposed to Daeshed] ISIS has begun to use hit-and-run tactics to erode the government in Baghdad, according to officials in the military, intelligence and government.

According to Reuters, Islamic State was "reinventing itself" months prior to Baghdad bragging in December that it defeated the terrorist group. Intel sources said the scumwafers would adopt guerrilla tactics once it was unable to hold territory.

There has been a serious increase in kidnappings and killings, mostly in Kirkuk, Diyala, and Salahuddin provinces as pressure has increased for the government to do something about the terror group.

On June 17, three Shi'ite men were kidnapped by Islamic State religious fanatics who were disguised as policemen at a highway checkpoint. Their mutilated corpses were discovered ten days later, rigged with explosives to kill anyone who found them, because that's the way jihad goes, and that's what Mohammad would have done.

In June there were at least 83 kidnapping cases, murder or both in the three provinces.

Diyala Provincial Council Chairman Ali al-Dani said Islamic State has the advantage because of their mobility. 'The terrorists now are moving in small groups that are hard to track. Intelligence work is needed," he said.

"The situation is confusing, and the reason is the chaos within the security forces. There isn't one command leading security in the province. This strengthens Daesh," Salahuddin Provincial Council Chairman Ahmed al-Kareem said, using the pejorative term for Islamic State. [The term 'Daesh' means "unholy scumcrumpet cowardly sadistic human excrement" in Arabic].

The confusion and disarray among security forces has allowed IS to make a comeback.

Daesh has regrouped in the Hemrin mountains in the northeast. The mountains extend from Diyala, which borders Iran, and crosses northern Salahuddin and southern Kirkuk, overlooking Iraq's main highway.

Officials lovingly call it a "triangle of death."

Military and intel officials have differing estimates regarding the number of IS fighters remain active in Iraq. Hashimi believes there to be about 1,000 with half in desert areas and the remainder in the mountains.

Their leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has yet to be caught and his unwashed militants are still active in some Arab states.

It's time for government forces to do some mopping up.

Chelsea Manning 'lookalike' wants POTUS to resign

The Chelsea Manning body double [except for certain parts unmentioned] and former Republican Governor of New Jersey, Christine Todd Whitman, is doing all she can to get back into the spotlight. Todd-Whitman claimed that President Trump is "clearly unfit to remain in office" and called for him to step down Sunday, bringing a smile to the face of "low IQ" Maxine Waters who went into chant mode: 'Impeach Forty-five!"

Todd Whitman said Trump's "disgraceful performance" in front of Russian President Vladimir Putin [not to be confused with the delicious Canadian french fried potato topping known as poutine, a delicious dish using cheese curds [not to be confused with the Kurds who are in opposition to Putin]] in Helsinki, helped her come to that conclusion.

"I am a lifelong Republican," she claimed. "I have campaigned and won as a member of the party and I have served more than one Republican president," referring to the 'Tricky Dicky' administration.

She made the point of how her fellow GOPers slammed Obama for his "engagement strategy" with Putin and are now engaging in "willful ignorance of the damage Trump is doing both domestically and internationally," referring to the tax decrease, increased jobs, military spending, VA overhaul, and the tariffs--the only point that makes sense.

Look, Trump says a lot of junk, but it isn't what he says that matters as much as what his administration is doing.

I agree that Trump screwed up bigly with the Putin speech. I was flabbergasted. His walk-back didn't go over well either because of all the previous things he said of Russia and Putin and how he slammed our intelligence agencies.

But it seems as if every time anyone on either side of the aisle makes a blunder, or an ancient tweet is discovered that was written when the twit was in college, the other side wants a resignation or prison. Both sides are guilty of hypocrisy, but the left is clearly a bigger offender and a lot more hypocritical than the right.

Todd-Whitman claimed that Trump has a "sycophantic relationship" with Putin. She's making that stuff up because she isn't privy to what they spoke about in private.

"Trump's avowed respect for the word of a dictator who has spent decades undermining the U.S. and its allies is utterly dangerous," the alarmist said.

Todd-Whitman, like Hillary Clinton, should step down from public life and go off into the night or the sunset [whichever they choose to leave by] and put politics behind them.

Obama should do the same.

IDF shoots down Syrian warplane as things heat up in Golan Heights

Jerusalem/Beirut -- Israel says it shot down a Syrian warplane that crossed into the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on Tuesday. The Syrians claim the jet was fired upon as it flew an operation against rebels on Syrian territory.

The latest incident increases existing tensions in the area, a strategic plateau between the two long-standing enemies. Little Israel has been high alert as Russian-supported Syrian government forces close in to take back rebel-held territory.

Israeli sirens have been sounded on the Golan and witnesses saw two missiles flying into the sky. The IDF said it fired Patriot interceptor missiles at a Syrian Sukhoi jet that crossed about a mile into Israeli airspace after they first tried to warn it off.

"It was shot down and it crashed . . . most likely in the southern part of the Syrian Golan Heights," Israeli military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus said.

The jet crashed in northern Israel and both pilots ejected and were injured, one critically, it was recently discovered.

The fate of the two pilots is unknown, but there were no reports of any parachutes opening.

Syrian state media [aka fake news] said the warplane had been targeted by Israel and hit while conducting raids in Syrian airspace. [Google the term: 'taqiyya'].

An IDF statement addressed the civil war across the border.

"Since morning hours, there has been an increase in the internal fighting in Syria, including an increase in the activity of the Syrian Air Force," the statement read.

The statement made it clear that Israel would "continue to operate against" any breach of a 1974 U.N. armistice deal establishing buffer zones on the Golan.

Israel is concerned that the chinless Syrian President Bashar al-Assad [the 'ad' is silent] might decide to defy the demilitarization regime or allow his forces and Hezbollah reinforcement to deploy in the area.

These recent tensions have prompted intercession by Sergei Lavrov [of Hillary Clinton 'reset button' fame] and a top general on Monday for talks with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. The PM does not agree with Russia's offer to keep Iranian forces 62 miles away from the Golan lines.

Letter to editor suggests POTUS should be executed

If this was about Barack Obama the left would go ballistic. The Denver Post published a letter to the editor suggesting that President Trump should be executed for treason. The letter also criticized Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO) following the president's summit with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki.

Suzanne Gagnon of Lakewood wrote that Soviet spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who gave secrets on the atomic bomb to Moscow, were executed for "far less." This may be due to Gagnon's affinity to the communist nation of Russia who, she may see as deserving to know all about the big bomb.

Her letter came in response to the paper's editorial last week which gave praise to Gardner, saying he "deserves credit" for taking a tough stance against Russia and sponsoring a bill to add Russia to the state sponsor of terror list.

"Sen. Cory Gardner is insipid, at best," the leftist anarchist wrote. "His words are always carefully chosen and, if challenged, their intent open to 'spinning' to his own advantage. No surprise here he didn't call President Donald Trump out by name. [At least Obama and Bill Clinton never chose their words carefully, she didn't add. Of course, there isn't any 'there' there.]

"The legislation he has proposed is weak, not tough; it's simply more wordsmithing," she said. "Gardner is certainly not the only politician I take issue with, but I don't see The Denver Post championing anyone else like you champion Gardner."

Obama to Medvedev: "I'll have more
flexibility after the election"

She compared Trump to the Rosenbergs, who were tried and executed in 1953 for espionage [the same thing Hillary Clinton committed but got a free pass on]. Gagnon said there are "many more actions" that need to be taken against Trump [because he beat Hillary].

Next, the angry Gagnon used the "If it walks like a duck" analogy because she apparently has a rather empty imagination.

"If it walks like a traitor, and talks like a traitor, and acts like a traitor . . . it is a traitor," she wrote. "Ethel and Julius Rosenberg were executed on a basis of far less evidence than is had on Trump and many in his administration."

"Besides being in agreement with the actions recommended in the editorial of July 19, I believe there are many more actions that can and should be taken against Trump to keep him from destroying the U.S.," she said. "If our leader doesn't support any swift, significant pushback against Russian meddling [unlike Obama who sat on his hands while knowing about the meddling] our votes aren't worth much."

Naturally, she offered no reference regarding how Trump acted like a traitor, but she's a leftist and her feelings are all that matters. If you want to talk treason or espionage, think about the fact that Hillary Clinton had an illegal email server that was clearly against the law and Espionage Act and she wiped it clean after it was subpoenaed. That's an actual fact, not speculation, and because of the corrupt former FBI director James Comey, she's still on the campaign trail in her mumu.

Compass Colorado, a conservative nonprofit organization, points out that the editorial is in line with the "increasingly violent tone" of political rhetoric on the left.

It would be like me suggesting that anyone who speaks out against a sitting president, asking for his or her execution, should themselves be put to death for seditious and treasonous behavior.

"The mere fact the Denver Post would publish a letter to the editor with this type of language speaks to both the increasingly violent tone of liberals in Colorado politics and the desperation of the Post for readership," said Kelly Maher, executive director of Compass Colorado.

"This trend of violent language in Colorado is deeply concerning," Maher said. "Just a few months ago the Boulder Daily Camera published a letter to the editor asking if citizens have a moral responsibility to take arms against oil and gas well workers, and the liberal group ProgressNow Colorado tweeted out a picture of Senator Cory Gardner with blood on his hands after a shooting, and now this Denver Post letter."

Yes, liberals never take responsibility for their own actions but blame their violence on the target--not unlike an abusive spouse or Antifa.

"This violent and divisive rhetoric will do nothing to change hearts or minds, it's designed to entrench and inflame," Maher said.

FLASH: Toronto shooter identified--guess what

Photo: CBC

UPDATE: The family of the shooter say that Faisal has a history of mental illness. Perhaps it's a coverup or simply a description of anyone following Islam in an orthodox manner, because to do so, is indicative of a mental illness.


Ontario's Special Investigations Unit have now identified the 29-year-old Toronto mass shooter as Faisal Hussain of the same city. Of course, the motive for the shooting is unknown at this time, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that with a name like that, it is probably an Islamic jihadi attack we're talking about.

The SIU statement read: "Due to the exceptional circumstances of this tragic incident and the public interest in knowing the man's identity, the SIU is identifying the man as Faisal Hussain of Toronto."

"The SIU continues to investigate this incident," the statement goes on to say. "The post-mortem is scheduled for tomorrow in Toronto."

Sadly, a university student and a 10-year-old girl were killed by this piece of garbage around 10 p.m. Sunday. According to police, Hussein shot 15 people and exchanged gunfire with police before dying of a gunshot wound.

Whether the wound was from police fire or self-inflicted, at this time, only Allah knows.

The 18-year-old victim was identified as Reese Fallon. The family is asking for privacy, according to MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith.

"This is a loss for all of us," Erskine-Smith said, but he's wrong. It's a loss for Fallon and his family. If it was a loss for all of us, we would be monitoring mosques and profiling intelligently in communities that spawn terrorism.

Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders said that police received a call shortly after 10 p.m. Sunday about a shooting near Danforth and Logan Avenues in Toronto's Greek-town neighborhood.

The scumbag was caught by police on nearby Bowden Street. Shots were exchanged between him and two officers, the slimeball ran back to Danforth where he was found dead on the sidewalk.

"It was a very rapid and fluid event that unfolded very quickly," Det. Sgt. Terry Browne, lead investigator on the case, said Monday.

Five of the wounded were sent to St. Michael's Hospital where three received "life-saving" surgery. All five were listed in serious or critical condition as of Monday.

Seven of the injured are male and six are female, ages ranging from 10 to 59.

Witnesses had varying reports about what they believe happened. Shot-count ranged from about 20 to about 30 rounds.

Gun laws are very strict in Canada, so that should tell us just how unimportant they actually are for stopping Islamic jihad and other mass shootings.

So now it's time for politicians to pull out their index cards and read off lines such as: "Our thoughts and prayers go out to them and their families."

It's time to do more than thinking and praying. Maybe we need to see just who's going onto ISIS websites and covertly go into mosques to hear the sermons.

"I'm looking at absolutely every single possible motive," Saunders said, but added that it's too early to say what motivated the shooting.

Many on the Toronto Police Force believe Saunders is an idiot, but he has to say those words because jumping to conclusions would offend Muslim extremist and moderates.

The world awaits the wise words of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. We can hardly wait for him to pull out his index cards and say those important sentiments.

It's not yet known if Hussein was working alone [with Allah's help, of course] or if he had a human accomplice in planning and carrying out the jihad carnage.

Saunders asked: "Was he inspired by some terrorist group? Was this a specific vendetta to kill a specific person and then he shot everybody else in his path? That's the big job of Toronto police. They can't tell us a lot yet because they don't know a lot yet."

Toronto Mayor John Tory spoke of the act as "an unspeakable act" and jumped on the opportunity to not let a tragedy go to waste by calling for stricter gun control regulations for the city.

Sure, that would have kept Hussein from wanting his 72 virgins.

Tory pulled out an index card from his jacket breast pocket and read: "Our entire city has been shocked by this cowardly act of violence."

Cowardly?

People like Tory are disgusting in so many ways, pushing their agenda even before the bodies are buried.

Mary Fragedakis, the city councillor for Toronto-Danforth went on Twitter to thank the first responders with words she got from an index card in her shoulder bag, prepared for such terrible occasions:

"Here on the Danforth tonight, my heart and prayers go out to the victims and their loved ones. Words cannot express my sadness over this despicable act. Thanks to all the first responders and medical teams."

As predictable as the sun rising in the morning.

Gov. Cuoma has a soft spot for cop and baby killers

Marybeth Tinning without the kids

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's parole board has a soft spot in their hearts for cop killers and serial child-killers. And who can blame him--after all, he is a leftist with a heart of gold.

The Trump-hating governor's parole board will be freeing Marybeth Tinning, 75, next month. She was convicted of what Cuomo must view as relatively minor offenses: killing her 4-month-old daughter [hey, it's almost like a late-term abortion, right?], and admitted to smothering three of her other children.

Cuomo's board also sprung two notorious cop-killers and a gunman who killed a Bronx prosecutor.

Tinning told the panel, after spending 30 years in jail back in 2011, "When my daughter was young . . . I just believed she was going to die. So I just did it."

Because Tinning was correct, [yes, we are all going to die] the panel felt she killed her baby for the right reasons--kind of like how they feel about abortion, but that's already been said.

Board members, most of whom Cuomo picked, have been suffering the mental anguish of trying to find reasons to keep people who murder other people in prison:

In April, Herman Bell, a Black Liberation Army (BLA) member, ambushed and killed two NYPD cops 40 years ago in Harlem. He was paroled because the panel considered him an army veteran, one supposes.

In May, the panel let Robert Hayes go free. He was also a BLA member who shot and killed NYPD transit officer Sidney Thompson in 1973.

In June, Jose Diaz was let back out on the streets. He used a machine-gun to mow down 30-year-old Sean Healy, an assistant DA in the Bronx. Perhaps better gun control would have made Diaz reconsider.

"People who kill cops and kids should never see the light of day, let alone be paroled," Sen. Jim Tedisco (R-Schenectady) told The New York Post. "Where's the justice? . . . This is a total disgrace and an affront to the victims and the safety of the public."

It's also how the Cuomo administration does business.

Of course, if a murder struck close to home for Cuomo, things would be different. But politicians are rarely affected by the policies and laws they make [Google: Obamacare and Congress]. They're even allowed insider trading information because they're above the laws that we must abide by.
