Le Pen sans hijab: take that, feminists!

A real feminist

France's populist candidate for President, Marine Le Pen, puts feminists like Gloria Steinem to shame. 

Le Pen is running for France's top political position on the right-wing National Front ticket and was in Lebanon this week. She was scheduled to meet President Michel Aoun, a Christian, and the nation's top Sunni Muslim cleric, Sheikh Abdel-Latif Derian.

Ms. Le Pen was told that women were required to wear traditional headscarves before entering the presence of the cleric, lest he lose control of his bladder or something worse.

She refused. After a few uncomfortable minutes between her staff and the sheikh's, she called off the meeting and left. She later said, "I consider the headscarf a symbol of a woman's submission. I will not put on the veil."

"I met the grand mufti of Al-Azhar, and the highest Sunni Authority didn't have this requirement, but it doesn't matter," she said. "You can pass on my respects to the grand mufti, but I will not cover myself up."

Some may think she was playing up to her home team but she seemed truly surprised and insisted that her team informed the mufti's staff the night prior to the intended audience that she would show up bare-headed, like a normal Westerner. The mufti people said she agreed to don the Islamic symbol of submission [but not in those words].

At present, Le Pen is ahead in the presidential polls and has long called for limits on immigration to France--many of whom are Muslims from Africa and the Middle East. 

This should strengthen her core support.

Coincidentally, on the same day this occurred, police arrested three Muslim suspects in southern France for plotting what they termed "an imminent terror attack," as is their wont. Perfect timing for Le Pen as that headline alongside her face-off with a Muslim pedoopadoop, reinforces her warning that France already has too many immigrants.

Various media organizations covered the incident very differently, but the AP quoted Le Pen, who spoke of herself in the third person: "I note that when Marine Le Pen refuses to don the headscarf, it is criticized, but when Michelle Obama refused to do it in Saudi Arabia, it was considered admirable."

No wonder journalism is dying faster than a moth trying to roast a tiny marshmallow.

Not a real feminist

Al Jazeera, a favorite media organization of Al Gore and funded by the ruling family of Qatar, wrote: "This was a trap and a set-up because she wanted to send a message to her own voters and supporters that she somehow refused to respect the local customs in a Muslim-majority country." 

When has Islam respected the customs of Western Christian-Judeo countries? And how does anyone really know the reason she had?

It wasn't out of disrespect in a 'Muslim-majority country,' it was a sign of her refusal to 'submit' as the word 'Islam' actually means.

Fun Fact: German Chancellor Angela Merkel refused to meet with Le Pen. Hopefully, that will signal the end of Merkel's political career.

Ironically, not one of the news agencies that reported on her visit failed to call her 'right-wing,' and true to form, not one of them called her a 'feminist.'

Bite it, Hillary voters!

ISIS suicide bomber was former Gitmo detainee

He went off half cocked

Abu-Zakariya al-Britani, a British detainee at the Guantanamo Bay Detention Center, is dead after blowing himself up in Iraq in a botched attempt to get to heaven.

Guess who claimed responsibility for the attack .  .  .  yes, ISIS did. The jihadist was praised by the Islamic State for detonating a vehicle loaded with explosives near Mosul where Iraqi troops are currently battling ISIS terrorists for control of the city.

Al-Britani, whose real name is Ronald Fiddler, has fiddled with explosives for the last time. He was a Brit seized by US forces in Afghanistan and sent to Gitmo in 2002. Unfortunately, the Islamic extremist was released in 2004 by the guy who said that "Islam is a religion of peace," former president George W. Bush.

Fiddler, 50, is from Manchester, England first become Jamal al-Harith, but he discovered that Harith colloquially means 'camel snot' in some Middle Eastern villages, so he changed it to Abu-Zakariya al-Britani.

Al-Britani (his friends call him "Boom Boom Abu") entered Syria in 2014, according to a BBC report. 

The Islamic State statement didn't say when the bombing occurred or whether anyone was hurt or killed except for Abu, which probably means the suicide mission failed to kill anyone but the idiot carrying it out.

Rest in pieces, Abu. Your 72 camels await you.

DHS memos signed by secretary give guidelines to deporting illegal aliens

Homeland Security Secretary John F. Kelly has signed new guidelines that give federal authorities sweeping power to more aggressively detain and deport illegal aliens inside our borders.

Kelly, in a pair of memos, provided specific detail on plans for the agency to hire thousands more enforcement agents and increase the pool of immigrants who are prioritized for removal. The plan also speeds up deportation hearings and has local law enforcement help make arrests. In other words, it actually upholds the law.

Kelly's directives would supersede almost all previous directives under the Obama administration and go beyond Obama's focus of only deporting hardened criminals and those with terrorist ties, unless they had already visited the White House.

In the guidelines Kelly stated: "The surge of immigration at the southern border has overwhelmed federal agencies and resources and has created a significant national security vulnerability to the United States."

He cited statistics from the Obama administration when ten to fifteen thousand additional apprehensions per month were made at the southern U.S. border between 2015 and 2016.

In order to prevent rioting by rabid leftists who see no problem with allowing anyone to enter the country, a White House official said the memos were merely drafts and are under review by their Counsel's Office, which is seeking some changes. The official, who spoke to Fox News on condition of anonymity because the process was not complete, declined to provide specifics.

President Trump announced plans in January that he would make good on his campaign promises to build the wall on the border with Mexico and increase enforcement action against the estimated 11 million illegal aliens trying to take American jobs or receive entitlement benefits they believe they are entitled to collect from U.S. taxpayers.

The Kelly memos are meant as a blueprint for DHS in order to formally establish new policies and direct agency staff to start following them. 

But many of the specifics for achieving the goals of Trump's executive orders still need clarification such as the funding situation. Kelly's memos direct federal officials to seek all available funding for the border wall, but the funds must be appropriated by Congress and will amount to over $20 billion.

Immigrant rights advocates said the memos mark a major shift in U.S. immigration policies by dramatically expanding the scope of enforcement operations. [Read: Immigration rights circumventors said the memos unfairly want to follow the letter of the law and that is bad for their business.]

The new procedures would permit authorities to seek quick deportation proceedings, which are currently limited to undocumented immigrants who've been in the U.S. for less than 2 weeks, to anyone who has been here for up to 2 years.

Mexican immigrants would also be immediately returned to Mexico who are caught at the border pending outcomes of their deportation hearings, which would avoid having to house them on U.S. property. That would save space and money for the government.

Unaccompanied minors would be deterred from entering the U.S. Over the last three years, there was a wave of around 155,000 unaccompanied minors who came here from Mexico and Central America. Under the new policies, their parents in the U.S. could be prosecuted if they are found to have paid smugglers to bring them across the border.

Joanne Lin, senior legislative counsel at the ACLU said in a statement that "due process, human decency, and common sense are treated as inconvenient obstacles on the path to mass deportation," obviously forgetting how liberals have been treating the U.S. Constitution as an 'inconvenient obstacle' and that the parents of unaccompanied minors should have the 'common sense' not to send their children here illegally and unaccompanied. She added: "The Trump administration is intent on inflicting cruelty on millions of immigrant families across the country."

That's one perspective. 

Another perspective is the fact that illegal immigrants are inflicting financial cruelty on taxpayers and are violating our laws. If we want to be a sovereign nation, we need borders and laws to ensure it. 

So far, it looks like President Trump is trying to fulfill his campaign promises regarding immigration. And that's a yooge reason he got elected.

Believe me.

'Flattop' USS Carl Vinson heads for South China Sea

She's a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier weighing 101,300 long tons; is 1,092 feet long; boasts two Westinghouse A4W nuclear reactors, 4 steam turbines and 4 shafts for propulsion, with a cruising speed over 30 knots; and her range isn't in miles, it's in time at 20 to 25 years! 

She's the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier with a crew of 6.062 sailors and air crew;  uses SLQ-32A(V)4 Countermeasures suite electronic warfare and SLQ-25A Nixie torpedo countermeasures; armed with two Mk57 Mod3 Sea Sparrows, three Phalanx CIWS; and two RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missiles. She carries 90 fixed winged aircraft and helicopters.

And she's on her way to the South China Sea over the weekend, accompanied by a guided-missile destroyer for the first time since President Trump took office.

The USS Carl Vinson was joined by the USS Wayne E. Meyer and Carrier Air Wing 2.

During his confirmation hearing in January, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said China should be denied access to their man-made islands in the South China Sea. The Chinese installed runways on three of these islands and bunkers to house fighter jets and bombers. We are closely watching them to determine if they deploy surface-to-air missiles (SAM) next. If they do, this could affect U.S. Navy operations in the region.

China warned us and other nations to tread carefully. "China respects and upholds the freedom of navigation and overflight in the South China Sea, which countries enjoy under international law, but firmly opposes any country's attempt to undermine China's sovereignty and security in the name of freedom of navigation and overflight," their foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said.

International waters is 12 miles and the ships will probably respect that now. But these islands encompassing the Paracels, are artificial and appear to be set up as military installations. We've sailed close to them four times since October 2015: the first three missions challenged China's requirement for ships to obtain permission prior to transit in the area; the last one challenged their sovereignty over waters encompassing the Paracels.

Secretary of Defense James Mattis said that these types of operations will continue while also ensuring there is no military escalation occurring by China.

Cool heads will be needed by both sides. Let's just hope the orange one remains cool and clear and listens to his advisers.

Is source of White House leaks Kate Walsh?

They called it "Breaking Report" but it's premature to know for certain if #NeverTrumper and White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Kate Walsh, is the source of the leaks designed to undermine the Trump administration and his presidency.

GotNews reported on Sunday that the source of the leaks came from Ms. Walsh and she is being investigated as the person who has been distributing highly confidential information to such sources as The New York Times, the "Communist-loving Paper of Record," and others.

The Gateway Pundit reached out to GotNews' founder, Charles Johnson, for comment on the story and he told them it was "One hundred percent reliable, I'm unwilling to reveal the primary White House sources but Walsh was behind the leaks."

I, for one, am never comfortable with anonymous sources, although it's understandable why the source would not be willing to go public on this information. 

GotNews wrote: 

"Everyone knows not to talk to her in the White House unless you want to see it in the press," says a source close to the president. "The only question is whether or not she's doing it at the behest of [White House Chief of Staff] Reince Priebus or if she's doing it to advance herself in DC media circles."

One source in particular stands out: Walsh is close to Maggie Habberman, a New York Times reporter who wrote fawning pro-Republican National Committee stories during the presidential election. Walsh had also planted stories in The Washington Post and Politico. 

The article goes on to describe how Walsh is called "Madame President" in a negative way in the White House.

She also has a great deal of access as she controls President Trump's schedule, and there is alos reportedly a large number of emails where she and Priebus discuss how to rid themselves of Trump, according to a former #NeverTrump consultant.

"The president and his allies have been deliberately feeding her fake information in order to find her network," a source close to Mr. Trump's family said. "It's been going well."

According to GotNews, Walsh could not be reached for comment.

Again, it cannot be stressed enough, that this is a story generated by anonymous sources so we really need to wait for further developments before assuming it's true. Like Mr. Trump has said, there's a lot of fake news out there . . . believe me.

ISIS threatens: 'Stop deleting our accounts'

We're looking for a few good sheep

ISIS is upset over their social media accounts. The accounts are being systematically deleted by the social network administrators and it's twisting their skivvies in a knot.

One group of scumcrumpets took to an encrypted Telegram channel to cry over the constant deletion of their propaganda channels. They also mocked intel agencies, accusing them of infiltrating ISIS channels to obtain "real and credible information about the Islamic State."

Well that's what intel is supposed to do--to mock them means they're being successful and that's a good thing.

The idiots wrote: "We are not dumb nor stupid not to know that you are monitoring our Channels! . . . Reporting our Channels to be Disabled cuts off your source of information therefore rendering you useless and naive," the post reads.

I have a feeling that people who think that by blowing themselves to smithereens they are doing God's work, are not all that intelligent. Our intel agencies know what they're doing.

The dummies also suggested that without news and propaganda reports from them, the social media platforms would have a harder time generating revenue. What they're saying, in other words, "Please don't shut us out--it's good for you too."

"Reporting our Channels to be Disabled means You will run out of Business because Our Channels are Your Sources of income," the post says ungrammatically.

Twitter announced last year that it had shut down 360,000 accounts that were promoting or threatening terrorist acts, and who knows how many pro-Trump tweeters.

YouTube and Facebook also deleted thousands of videos and social media accounts promoting jihad.

Telegram, the 'app of choice' by the Islamic barbarians, created an ISIS 'watch-bot' that tracks the number of ISIS-affiliated channels and bots removed every month.

ISIS, however, has created a bot that generates random email addresses, temporary mobile phone numbers and pin codes required by many social media accounts for sign-up. They've also resorted to 'invite only' groups on Facebook to avoid deletion for several weeks before being discovered.

On Twitter, the jihadis set their tweets to protected viewing, which only allows 'vetted' followers (aka fellow scumcrumpets) to see their posts.

Iraqi forces ready to take back western part of Mosul

Iraqi military forces launched an operation on Sunday in a mission to retake the western half of Mosul from ISIS. The operation was announced by Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi on state television. He said government forces were on the move to "liberate the people of Mosul from Daesh oppression forever." The word 'Daesh' is an Arabic acronym for ISIS, a term they hate along with just about everything else.

The Iraqi PM called for the forces to "respect human rights." 

Iraqi forces took control of eastern Mosul in January, but the west is still in the control of the religious extremists. The present battle is expected to be difficult as it will go house-to-house in more densely populated, older and narrower streets.

According to Reuters, forces have already "captured several villages" in Mosul. 

"ISIS's cruelty, brutality and reach show they are not just a threat in Iraq and Syria, but to the region and the entire world," the commander of Combined Joint Task Force Operation Inherent Resolve, Lt. Gen. Stephen Townsend said in a statement.

Over 65 nations have come together to "defeat ISIS" over the past couple years, the statement said.

There are still many civilians trapped in Mosul and ISIS has no trouble targeting them or using them as human shields. Townsend made it clear that Iraqi forces will do all they can to avoid collateral damage.

Russell Simmons leads "I am a Muslim too" rally

The muezzin called out Adhan, the Muslim call to prayer, through Time Square in New York City on Sunday afternoon. 

A yooge, mixed-faith crowd who apparently know very little about Islam all declared their allegiance to the religion. 

There were social activists, street vendors, who wanted to make a buck or two; organizers, who, if they're devout Muslims, are secretly laughing in their sleeves at the clueless crowd; and curious tourists, who are naive and willing to pay ten dollars for a Sunday Times and saw the protest as a bargain, and actual protesters, many of whom get paid to make trouble, were in attendance.

As far as I know, however, none in the crowd accidentally converted to Islam because they would be killed if they tried to leave the religion of peace.

"I am a Muslim, too!" the low-information group chanted at the anti-Trump rally which was  organized by former friend of President Trump, Russell Simmons. He had the help of an even dumber rabbi and an imam who knew it.

"We are here, unified, because of Donald Trump, so we won't speak too harshly of him tonight--today. We want to thank him for bringing us together," Simmons said.

Simmons was a friend of Trump and he spent many weekends at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. He even was with Trump on his first date with now-First Lady Melania Trump and Donald even wrote the forward for two of Simmons' books. What a pal.

However, when Trump first announced his candidacy for president, Simmons said he would "rather Kim Kardashian be president" than Trump. The pair haven't spoken since 2015 and now all Simmons does is speak against him.

"We are here today to show Middle America our beautiful sides," Simmons said, possibly not realizing that Trump won spectacularly in Middle America and that they are in favor of his temporary immigration halt of seven terrorist-spawning countries. "And through our beautiful actions and intentions, that they have been misled. That the seeds of hate that were small, and maybe just ignorance, cannot be watered, and that hate cannot grow."

I have no doubt that Simmons hasn't read the Qur'an or knows anything about sharia law. I have no doubt the people at the protest are just as ignorant.

Susan Sarandon, the aging actress who recently told a gay website magazine that she is willing to have sex with anyone able to turn oxygen into carbon dioxide, told the crowd that "if you are silent, you are complicit" in the "dismantling" of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

The hypocrisy was palpable.

As Sarandon spoke of love, the crowd showed the exact opposite behavior. Protesters were yelling at cops, yelling "fascist" as they tried to control the crowd. They said the cops were "un-American" because they were "squelching" freedom of speech--much like the left does to invited conservatives who attempt to speak at colleges and other public forums only to be shouted down or a riot breaks out to prevent the dialogue.

The morons at this event had drawings of Trump as both Hitler and Mussolini, which, by doing so, minimizes the horrible injustices both of those tyrants perpetrated upon their respective countries. If Trump is Hitler, everyone is Hitler, just like it is with the race card the left constantly pulls.

One sign read: "Love Trumps Hate" and it was crossed out by the young man holding it with the words now reading: "Smash The State."

They call it love, but it's hatred and blame for the United States, and because it's the USA, they have the freedom and liberty to protest. 

They're simply too stupid to understand the irony.
