Lame-stream media slams POTUS for Fox News pick for UN job

If President Trump chose not to attend the funeral of George H.W. Bush the media would have called him insensitive and probably something like adolescent. He attended and all they could talk about was how he should not have been there.

Now the lame-stream media is blasting Trump's pick to replace Nikki Haley as UN Ambassador. Heather Nauert was the person he nominated and now they're questioning her qualifications and point out that he typically picks people who have worked at, or are currently working at Fox News.

It was okay when Obama nominated another journalist/communist, Samantha Powers, in 2013, for the same position, but hey, this is Donald Trump, and anything he does will be slammed by the leftist media.

Powers, 48, was a war correspondent for four years. She covered the Yugoslav Wars for the Boston Globe and U.S. News & World Report, as well as other publications. She was a columnist for Time while being director of a human rights center at Harvard.

She joined the Obama campaign in 2008, but was quickly forced to resign after she correctly observed Hillary Clinton to be a "monster" who was "stooping to anything" to win.

After Powers' nomination to the U.N. position, many Republicans supported her nomination such as Sens. Lindsey Graham, John McCain and independent Joe Lieberman. She was confirmed by a vote of 87-10 and served for over three years then succeeded by Nikki Haley.

But now that Trump has nominated as Haley's replacement Heather Nauert, a former Fox News journalist, the media has a problem with that.

Nauert has worked as a journalist for twenty years and also served as a government affairs consultant, working on issues such as Social Security, insurance and taxes, as well a term member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

This is not "What About-ism," it's about media bias.

In April last year, the U.S. Department of State announced that Nauert would become the department spokesperson. This past March, she was named Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs.

But Trump nominated her so the media has a problem with that.

The geniuses at the Comedy News Network (CNN) immediately called into doubt Nauert's skills. In a section of a news piece titled "Qualifications questioned," CNN cited a "senior diplomat" who said, "This is extraordinary. Especially in the footsteps of the former ambassadors: Madeleine Albright, Susan Rice."

Susan Rice? She went on the weekend morning shows lying about Benghazi being sparked by a video when, in fact, she knew it was a lie.

In a Washington Post piece headlined "The Foxification of the Trump White House, visualized," the super-liberal rag complained about the "remarkable bit of interplay between the administration and the network that is also the only one Trump has praised regularly since taking office ..." And Obama and the left constantly attacks.

In other words, it's really getting to them.

Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, who served under George W. Bush, noted the hypocrisy. "More than 26 reporters went into the Obama Administration. I guess that was fine with the press back then, but not now," he tweeted.

Erik Wemple, a Washington Post "reporter", responded to Fleischer's tweet: "All right: Were they from the same cable-news network -- the same cable-news network that the president watches for hours and hours each day, and gets bogus information from?"

Fleischer ate his lunch, responding: "No, silly. Barack Obama had his pick of reporters from every network, newspaper and magazine. They almost all fell for him, and those who didn’t join his Administration loved him and gave him soft coverage for 8 years."

Bite it, Wemple.

Hamas-CAIR oppose nomination of Heather Nauert, proving she's right fo the job

Both CAIR and Hamas oppose President Trump's decision to make Heather Nauert the UN Ambassador and these organizations laughingly believe they have a say in how the United States operates. And let's be clear, if these terrorist groups oppose her, she is definitely the right person for the job.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is a Hamas-linked group that is an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation Justice Department hearings and is a known terrorist-funding group. They are presented in the mainstream media as a civil rights organization, but they constantly encourage Muslims not to cooperate with Western law enforcement and the media never talks about it.

Heather Nauert should be proud that CAIR opposes her nomination.

Read all about it from CAIR's statement here.

Anyone that believes that Nauert is Islamophobic, does not know Islam, nor why the term ever came into existence. [Hint: to shut you up by making you believe you're a racist.]

Saving money, saving lives--no more free terror rides

President Trump doesn't always say or tweet "presidentially," but many of his decisions would make Ronald Reagan smile.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) is an example of how Trump has halted much of our funding to jihad-terror groups and saving us money at the same time.

The United States will not hand out $45 million that it pledged on December 15th to UNRWA. This announcement came just days after Washington withheld a separate $65 million, arguing that this agency needs a "fundamental re-examination."

Money that was earmarked for food aid as part of the West Bank/Gaza Emergency Appeal may be going elsewhere, perhaps to fund Palestinian Hamassholes whose only reason for living is to destroy Israel and kill the Jews.

The funds were pledged by State Department Comptroller Eric Hembree in a December 15 letter to UNRWA Commissioner-General Pierre Krähenbühl, according to Reuters.

"The United States plans to make this funding available to UNRWA in early 2018," the letter states. "An additional letter and contribution package confirming this contribution will be sent by or before early January 2018."

State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert told the press on Thursday that the $45 million was not a guarantee. 

"At this time, we will not be providing that, but that does not mean--I want to make it clear--that does not mean that it will not be provided in the future," she said.

"Money coming in from other countries needs to increase as well to continue paying for all those refugees," she added and also said the UN agency needed to reform.

Arab League head Ahmed Aboul Gheit said on Wednesday that the US decision over the freezing of funding was aimed at negating the entire issue of Palestinian refugees. "This decision affects the education and health of Palestinians and aims to eradicate the question of refugees," he said at a Cairo conference about Jerusalem and how much they hate Israel and the Jews.

The United States is, of course, the largest contributor to the UN agency as well as to the UN overall. We are suckers and Trump is beginning to make changes.

UNRWA spokesman Chris Gunness said Wednesday that "this dramatically reduced contribution results in the most severe funding crisis in the history of the agency."

So why doesn't other Middle East Islamic countries help them out? Why not have the Saudis, with all their wealth, throw them a few bucks? 

Because Palestine is being helped by Iran to destroy Israel.

Hanan Ashrawi, a senior terrorist of the Palestine Liberation Organization [the group that murdered Israel's soccer team at the 1972 summer Olympics after which their leader, Yassar Arafat, received the Nobel Peace Prize] said of the freeze that it amounted to "cruelty" toward an "innocent and vulnerable population."

Part of the reason the funding freeze is a crisis for the Palestinians is due to the fact that money slated for aid is mostly used for funding terrorism.

Palestinian envoy to Washington, Husam Zomlot, said, "Palestinian refugees and children's access to basic humanitarian services, such as food, health care and education, is not a bargaining chip but a US and international obligation."

No it isn't.

When the PLO and Hamas stop using Palestinian children, their schools, and mosques as shields, as they lob rockets into Israel, then their words will have meaning.

Israeli-Palestinians have more freedoms and more rights than those in Palestine. Israeli hospitals treat Palestinians while those in Palestine laugh at the idea of being humane to Jews and infidels.

It's time to stop funding these barbarians. 

Good thinking, President Trump.
