    If you’re looking for reasons why Moslem fundamentalists are working so hard to gut the US’s politics and culture, consider: the country of Isreal has about 6 million Jews living in it, the US has just over 6 million Jews living here. Israel and the US hold some 80 percent of the world’s Jews. Destroy Israel, turn the US population into an antisemitic mob like Obama tried and Islam gets to whack 6 million Jews times two. The rest is a just a minor cleanup.

      Back to those leaked Soros documents showing he wants to gave millions of immigrants dumped into the US and resettled in places where they can effect the 2018 midterms. Forget for a minute Soros’ allrged selling Jews during thecwar and move ahead to how, in postwar Hungary, the Communists took power. Then look at what’s happening here and Soros’ role behind it, the twctics are remarkably similar. Plus there are 6 million Jews here an enterprising businessman could sell to his Moslem bros.

            Meanwhile we had many homeless Americans that could have benefited from maybe being house in the detention centers, not to mention the millions a day spend on them. There are several million homeless American children, along with way over 5 million homeless American vets.
            From what I understand there are still a dozen or two full detention centers that are costing Americans millions each to run daily. The detainees in them have the nerve to try and start law suits over not having enough TVS, computers, cell phones, and too many peanut butter sandwiches. (OK rant over).

      I have been noticing a lot of the idiots are crawling back under their rocks and keeping their mouths shut.

      Some of the farm groups I’m a member of on FB always has idiots commenting on livestock guardian puppies/dogs or herding dogs/puppies. It’s always ignorant stuff like, “dogs should be a part of the family sleeping with their families, not being forced to live outside working, people should not be allowed dogs if they do this to them, etc.” A month ago you would have numerous people agreeing with them. The other day some idiot tried it and not one person agreed with her and had her crying that everyone was bullying her by explaining to her how stupid she is and these dogs have it in their dna to be working dogs.
      Saturday on the way the home from the auction we stopped at a convenience store that the entire chain always has a “no guns” sign to get something to drink. I normally won’t stop at this particular chain for that reason, but it was the only store for 40 miles. They were selling car signs with gun sayings and a guy was buying one and told the cashier that her bosses were hypocrites. She told him they no longer have a sign at this particular store and from what she understood that policy was changing at all the stores because things have changed now.

    For several weeks CAIR national and all of their state branches promoted the “Women’s March”.

    They targeted pro-choice organizations, the Lesbian-Gay community and hit most every university throughout America targeting our confused “gender-identity” Youth.

    They offered free buses to the event and other perks. Why?

    Abortions are illegal in Islam, yet Muslim groups targeted pro-choice groups for this event; homosexuality is despised in Islam, yet Muslim groups targeted the LGBT community-why?

    Excellent!

    TRUMP AND THE PRESS: So yesterday I was on the BBC talking about Trump, the press, and what’s going on. Here’s a bit of an expansion.

    First, the thing to understand is that, as I’ve said before, one of the changes going on with Trump generally is the renegotiation of various post-World War II institutional arrangements. One of those is the institutional arrangement involving the press and the White House. For decades, the press got special status because it was seen as both powerful, and institutionally responsible. (And, of course, allied with the Democrats who were mostly in charge of setting up those postwar institutional arrangements). Now those things have changed. If the press were powerful, it would have beaten Trump. If it were responsible, it wouldn’t be running away with fake news whenever it sees a chance to run something damaging to Trump. And, of course, there’s no alliance between Trump and the media, as there was with Obama.

    So things will change. The press’s “insider” status — which it cherishes — is going to fade. (This is producing waves of status anxiety, as are many other Trump-induced institutional changes). And, having abandoned, quite openly, any pretense of objectivity and neutrality in the election, the press is going to be treated as an enemy by the Trump Administration until further notice.

    In fact, Trump’s basically gaslighting them. Knowing how much they hate him, he’s constantly provoking them to go over the top. Sean Spicer’s crowd-size remarks are all about making them seem petty and negative. (And, possibly, teeing up crowd-size comparisons at next week’s March For Life, which the press normally ignores but which Trump will probably force them to cover) …

    One of the speakers at the ‘Women’s March’ was Donna Hylton. In 1985, Hylton was convicted for her participation in the violent abduction, torture, and murder of Thomas Vigliarolo, a 60-year-old real estate broker. He was held and tortured 15-20 days before he was murdered.

    From Redditt:

    “Ultimately, Miranda would ask for a ransom of over $400,000–even after the victim had died. He never got it. Maria Talag, who according to Donna called Miranda her godfather, invited Donna and two friends, Rita and Theresa, to participate in the crime. Their cut was to be $9,000 each; Donna wanted hers to pay for a picture portfolio to help her break into modeling.

    Vigliarole believed the three girls were prostitutes who were going to have sex with him. Instead, they picked him up on March 8 in Elmhurst, Queens, at Maria’s home, and drugged him to make him drowsy. Then they drove him to Selma’s apartment in Harlem. The apartment had already been prepared for an extended torture session: The closet door had been cut, a pot put in it for use as a toilet, the windows boarded.

    For the next 15 to 20 days (police aren’t sure just when Vigliarole died), the man was starved, burned, beaten, and tortured. (Even 10 years later, Spurling could recall Rita’s chilling response when they questioned her about shoving a three-foot metal bar up Vigliarole’s rear: “He was a homo anyway.” How did she know? “When I stuck the bar up his rectum he wiggled.”)

    The three girls took turns watching the man. It was Donna who delivered a ransom note and tape to a friend of Vigliarole’s, who was able to get a partial license plate number of the car she was driving. He notified the police, who traced the plate to a rental car facility. On April 6 the suspects were arrested, and detectives spent 36 hours straight interviewing the seven men and women. “We had to keep going back and forth and catch them in lies,” said Spurling. “It was a never-ending circle of lies.”

    Spurling himself interviewed Donna: “I couldn’t believe this girl who was so intelligent and nice-looking could be so unemotional about what she was telling me she and her friends had done. They’d squeezed the victim’s testicles with a pair of pliers, beat him, burned him. Actually, I thought the judge’s sentence was lenient. Once a jailbird, always a jailbird.”

    Wellllll
    New Orleans mayor has announced yet another program, in an endless list of programs, to vattle crime in the city. Once again they’ll ask for money to increase police salaries, which already are the best in the state, rivaling the State Police. This is to combat attrition in the city PD, I guess thry’re looking for that point where the pay overcomes the individual officer’s disgust of the political BS they have to put up with.
    Also, they’re going to have infrared cameras that can pickup concealed weapons, OK not pick up but suggest the presence. Idea is to not only catch thugs but hassle CCW folks ( who hizzhonnah don’ like). Part of that is licence plate readers that will auto-capture your plate and run it thru the state’s and, I’m betting, Federal databases. Question unanswered is will the PD keep the plates scanned (they scan every car within range) and start building a database showing who was where when, guilty and innocent alike?

      Has anyone asked the mayor how much of that attrition is related to Black Lives Matter encouraging the killing of police? Because my understanding is that that’s a pretty big reason for police deciding to pursue new careers.

        The city government agreed to an onerous DoJ oversight sgreement and what is laughingly referred to as an independent civilian police oversight monitor. Add to that the city having its IG fingers in the mix and it is a wonder any street cops show up for work.

      One of the comments at Vox Day’s thread:

      I was among those contributing time and energy to 4chan and /r/The_Donald and the reason I quieted down on the subject and stepped back from the investigation is that it started to take a significant mental toll on me. We were dealing with some very demonic individuals and quite possibly the demons themselves. I missed several nights sleep over what we found, and the seemingly never ending rabbit hole that presented itself with regards to the people and places involved made me physically exhausted. I have a stomach for death and gore to some extent, but what this involves is the very heart of evil. Some of the insights gained in to this world are not worth the price paid by the investigator. I leave it behind with faith that God will see justice carried out in the end, and that all the victims of this cult/religion/ring/conspiracy, what ever it is, will find peace and relief in Him.

      That’s why I quit researching it, devoting my time, mind, spirit, and psyche to doing so.

      All the details, like I’m some kind of detective, just so I can KNOW.

      Trayvon, Mike Brown, Jessica. Christian and Newsom. Those were nothing like this rabbit hole. This is global. And apparently the press knows it, and that’s probably because they’re in on it, which is why they are suppressing it.

      I go back to a previous post – I’m convinced the world of power is encrusted with kiddy diddlers. First job I had when I got to NOLA was getting a guy who had been charged twice with molestation of young boys. In neither case did the DA’s office do much with the charges nor did they even schedule a court date. When one of the mothers complained to the DA and the press that hectried to bribe her the entire thrust of both cases was moved from molestation of a juvenile to witness tampering annnnnnnnnnd that charge was shelved also.
      As the molester had heavy access to lots of boys and young men and no one charged with prosecuting him seemed willing to do so, twice, it makes me wonder…….

    Cool evening, dry air, no wind and a crystal clear sky. Czarina and I took an ATV ride down the damn in the dark to watch the stars. We could clearly see the lens of the Milky Way, it was so still you could see the stars reflected in the water.
    We should be safe for four more years under Trump but we’re prepared for the possible confiscation of, in the name of the oppressed proletariat, ‘property in excess of what a person needs or should own’ under a more enlightened and progressive leadership. Lotta people out here are.

    Breaking news on the late news is that a pizza delivery guy was shot and killed a block away from our NOLA house. As this particular pizza company is a big NOPD ‘supporter’ solving it is a full court press. They still haven’t solved the case of a pizza driver from the same company who was shot and killed in March of 2015.

        When we bought there the area was solid middle class, the huge apartment complex behind us was home to offshore workers and Navy families whose service member was there to work the final outfitting of their ships built in the area.
        As the governments in the state gradually destroyed the ship building, oil and miberals businesses it devolved. By the time we left the apartment complex was a full-fledged
        Housing project rife with drugs and crime, there were open air drug houses where use and sales happened right out in the daylight and abandoned houses abounded.
