Ben Carson Under Fire for Saying Islam Not Compatible With USA, But He’s 100% Right

-By Warner Todd Huston

Dr. Ben Carson sparked controversy by saying that he doesn’t think Americans should vote for a Muslim to become president of the United States and that Islam is incompatible with the American ethos. Naturally he was called an “Islamopphobe,” but in the end Carson is 100% right. Islam is simply not compatible with the American system of government and our democratic freedoms. After all, Islam is inherently against freedom.

During Sunday’s “Meet the Press,” Carson told host Chuck Todd that he would be against a Muslim president saying that he “would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation.”

Later, in an interview with the Washington-based newspaper The Hill, Carson went even further.

“I do not believe Sharia is consistent with the Constitution of this country. Muslims feel that their religion is very much a part of your public life and what you do as a public official, and that’s inconsistent with our principles and our Constitution,” he said.

Carson’s reference to Muslim Sharia law is, of course, spot on. Sharia is the “law” that maintains that women can be beaten at will, that gays can be thrown off of tall buildings or hanged just because they are gay, that fathers can kill their daughters with “honor killings” if said daughter is dating the wrong sort of boy, that… well, let’s face it, Sharia is a backwards, disgusting, hateful, barbaric way to run things.

If this stuff isn’t “inconsistent” with the American way of life, what is?

I have to say that I was not very informed about Islam when back in 2001 George W. Bush was proclaiming that the great majority of Iraqis were “just like you and me and yearning to be free.”

That made sense to me. After all, we’ve spent our lives understanding that American government is the one most interested in human rights and that everyone loves to have their rights assured. Further liberals have told us all that people are the same everywhere you go. So, if that were true, then the second the great masses of Iraq and Afghanistan got a taste of true democratic freedom, wouldn’t they flock to it, wouldn’t they thrill to it?

But they didn’t. In fact, they used their freedom to vote to kill, oppress, dominate, and implement barbaric Sharia laws that simply exchanged one tyranny for another. Then millions of Muslims began to converge on other countries to force those countries into the same sort of barbarism.

Beltway Hacks Like Bill Kristol Are Why The GOP Needs to be Eliminated

-By Warner Todd Huston

For weeks the Republican establishment was attacking Donald Trump for refusing for a time to pledge that he would not run third party if he should lose the GOP nomination for president. Then he signed the pledge. But now establishment hack Bill Kristol is claiming HE will support a third party candidate if Trump wins the GOP nomination. It is this hypocrisy that shows why the rank and file are sick and tired of the Republican Party and why the GOP needs to be torn down and rebuilt as a real, conservative party.

Trump did finally sign that pledge that the GOP establishment wanted him to sign. These hacks said that Trump couldn’t clam to be a Republican unless he pledged to run as a Republican but then also pledged to support the party nominee if he lost the primary. OK, this makes a certain amount of sense.

However, that was early in this cycle when Trump was only up a little in the polls. Now that he has surged to a commanding lead (for now, at least) the GOP establishment is getting nervous. Because their effort to force Trump to sign this one party pledge had nothing at all to do with party loyalty. It had to do with the fact that they fully assumed that Trump could never win the nomination and they wanted to prevent his third party run in order to eliminate the possibility that as a third party candidate he would act as a spoiler allowing the Democrat to easily win the White House in 2016.

But now that Trump is leading handily, as I noted, hacks like Kristol are growing worried. Now they are starting to wonder if it really is possible for Trump to win the GOP nomination. And in that case they are coming smack up against the possibility that they will be the ones who don’t want to support the party nominee.

Bernie Sanders Went To A Christian Conservative University And Claimed the USA is Racist

-By Warner Todd Huston

Democrat candidate for President and self proclaimed socialist Senator from Vermont Bernie Sanders visited a Christian university on Monday and told students that our founders were racists and that the USA is inherently a racist nation.

It is a bit unusual that a Democrat would even accept the invitation to speak to a Christian university, of course, but with his claims that the USA is hopelessly racist, Sanders didn’t disappoint from offering the typical anti-American rhetoric that other Democrats indulge.

On Monday Sanders accepted the invitation to speak to a large audience at Liberty University, the college founded in Virginia by Moral Majority leader Jerry Falwell, and during the questions and answer segment of the program, the Vermont Senator insisted that it was a “fact” that America was founded by racists and upon racist principles.

Sanders was asked by the moderator what he’d do about the deteriorating race relations in our country if he became president. His reply was typically liberal in its contempt for our founding.

Miss America Contestant Says This Despite Undercover Videos Exposing Planned Parenthood

-By Warner Todd Huston

During a question and answer period at the 2016 Miss America Competition, Hannah Robison, the contestant from Tennessee, seemed to offer in her reply what was more like left-wing propaganda than fact by among other things perpetuating the myth that Planned Parenthood is a big purveyor of mammograms to poor and disadvantaged women.

One-time disgraced Miss America, actress Vanessa Williams, asked Miss Tennessee about her thoughts on the move in Congress to defund Planned Parenthood.

“Some legislators,” Williams asked Miss Tennessee, “are threatening to shut down the government over federal contributions to Planned Parenthood, even though no federal funds can be used for abortions. Should Planned Parenthood funding be cut off?”

Sadly, Hannah Robison replied with what seemed like a paid ad for Planned Parenthood, one filled with several lies and inaccuracies.

“I don’t think Planned Parenthood funding should be cut off,” Robinson said. “The $500 million that gets given to Planned Parenthood every single year goes to female care. It goes for scanning for cancer, it goes for mammograms. And if we don’t give that funding to Planned Parenthood, those women will be out of health care for reproductive causes.”

All of this is, of course, untrue. Planned Parenthood offers comparatively little by way of “health care” for women while the largest amount of its funding goes to its abortion mill services. Further, it doesn’t offer any mammogram services at all.

Obama bows after giving the nuclear

David Zucker, the producer of the hilarious “Airplane” and “Naked Gun” series of movies has now spoken up against Obama’s dangerous Iran nuke deal and he’s done it the way he does best, with an hilarious video and this one skewers Obama’s disastrous deal.

Zucker has created a new website called www.iransideeffects.com that you HAVE to see. The video is a pastiche of all those crazy drug commercials that tell potential customers about the horrible side effects of the drug.

Both hilarious and spot on right.

Some May Want to Forget 9/11–But We Must NEVER Forget!

-By Warner Todd Huston

It has been 13 years since that horrible day in 2001 when terrorism hit America with a vengeance. But many want to forget and pretend it never happened and we already have a generation of kinds just about to, or soon to enter into their teen years who can’t remember what happened on September 11, 2001. It is up to us to keep the memory of that day alive lest we allow it to be repeated.

But how do we approach that remembrance? But looking at an empty word document sitting ready to be filled with my 9/11 remembrance finds words coming slowly and I find it so hard to start this piece.

But I realized why it is so hard for me to start this piece. I am still furious, feelings are still too raw, I still well up when I see video of the towers falling, my heart still stops when I see that heart-wrenching image of bodies falling from windows hundreds of feet in the air. I still get that dark feeling in the pit of my stomach, the same one I felt that morning in 2001.

It’s all still too emotional to write a mere memorial. Words fail me.

As Jihadi Attacks Are Up Dramatically in USA, Obama Says Conservatives are ‘Dangerous’

-By Warner Todd Huston

Since Barack Obama came to office, his security regime has repeatedly put out reports saying that conservatives, Republicans, patriots, white people, and our military veterans are “dangerous” and need to be watched, quite despite that NONE of these people have caused any troubles. On the other hand, not once has Obama put out a report saying that Muslims are dangerous. And now we get this report from Congress informing us that would-be jihadi attacks are up “dramatically” since 2010.

The new report from the House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee notes that there has been a sharp rise in jihadi terror attempts inside the USA going from the 38 that were identified in 2010 to 124 by 2015.

“The Islamist terror threat in the US homeland has escalated dramatically this year and remains high,” committee chairman Michael McCaul said in the monthly “Terror Threat Snapshot” published Friday. “There have been more US-based jihadist terror cases in 2015 than in any full year since [September 11, 2001].”

Now, remember, this number represents the jihadi threats that the government has identified and cleared, so there are likely many more that they couldn’t report because they are still part of ongoing investigations. So, there are likely many more not on this list.

With the number of jihadi threats growing at a steady rate-and with some of these threats becoming real murders of Americans–it is clear that Islam is the most dangerous problem in America today.

This Anti-American Pope Strikes Again, Slamming America Over Immigration

-By Warner Todd Huston

The red Pope is at it again. This time, in order to scold the U.S.A. over its already too generous immigration policies, Francis is purposefully giving a Mass in Spanish despite that less than 15 percent of the United States even speaks the language. On top of that, he went out of his way to praise an activist nun who has decided to specialize in giving aid to illegals in the U.S.

This pope has the temerity to attack the U.S.A. over immigration despite the fact that this country has allowed more people to come here than any other nation of earth. And today he praised an activist nun in an act the media is pretending was spontaneous!

During a broadcast hosted by ABC News, Pope Francis went out of his way to praise Sister Norma Pimentel, an activist nun from Texas who is making a name for herself working on behalf of people who break our laws.

During a “townhall” styled meeting the pope singled the nun out before the crowd.

Democrat Website Doesn’t Know the Difference Between Aging Polish Military Vets and American Soldiers

Democrats so hate our military and are so entirely unfamiliar our veterans that on the website for the Democrat National Committee they posted a photo of some aging members of the Polish military—who were, by the way, actually WEARING their European inspired, Polish military uniforms–and labeled it as a photo of U.S. military veterans.


President Obama greets Polish veterans in Warsaw, Poland, on May 27, 2011.
A Democratic website mistakenly posted the photo to represent U.S. veterans.

Come on. LOOK at that photo. Who couldn’t tell those weren’t American uniforms?

The photo that was on the DNC website until last week showed aging veterans of the Polish military greeting President Obama. But instead of being properly labeled as a photo of members of a foreign military the photo was labeled as one depicting American military vets greeting the President.

Spanish Language Media Calling Donald Trump ‘Hitler’

-By Warner Todd Huston

As the Trump campaign rolls onward, Spanish language media in the U.S. are turning increasingly hostile with the real estate mogul being called everything from Hitler to a monkey.

Tempers flared at a recent Trump press conference when activist Univision TV personality Jorge Ramos leapt to his feet to interrupt the questions from other reporters and threw out a series of rapid fire statements and but no questions.

Trump had Ramos removed for the disruption, but then relented letting the activist TV star to engage him in a debate on some of the candidate’s immigration ideas.

Ramos has admitted that he isn’t really covering Trump as a reporter because Trump’s comments are “personal” to him.

What a Surprise: The Racist Virginia TV Killer Was a Big Obama Fan

-By Warner Todd Huston

Is anyone surprised at this? Anyone at all? We’ve now discovered that the failed TV reporter who filmed himself murdering two white former co-workers in Virginia on Wednesday was once reprimanded by his TV boss for wearing an Obama badge while reporting election results in 2012.

Murderer Vester Lee Flanagan was a former reporter at WDBJ TV before being fired in 2013. His rambling, race-tinged manifesto reveals that he had been disgruntled about being fired ever since and he claimed that racism was a motivation for the murders.

Flanagan, for instance, claimed that the shooting of several African American churchgoers in Charleston was a prime motivator for his own murder spree.

But Flanagan seemed to have many more problems than the Charleston shooting. As The Daily Mail reports, Flanagan had a habit of verbally assaulting cameramen in public and “intimidating them with his violent temper.”

Famous Illegal Alien Journalist Jose Antonio Vargas Isn’t Paying the Taxes He’s Always Claiming He Does

-By Warner Todd Huston

Journalist Jose Antonio Vargas, arguably the most famous illegal alien in the media, has repeatedly argued that he and other illegals are productive members of society and pay their “fair share” of taxes. But this claim just took a hit after news leaked that a federal tax lien of over $41K was levied against his property in California due to a failure to pay taxes.

Records showing the lien against Vargas’ property were revealed by Red Alert Politics this week. The filings show that the journalist was hit with a $41,945.44 tax lien on Jan. 7, 2015 for failing to pay his 2010 taxes.

On a myriad of occasions Vargas has claimed that illegals, including himself, are law abiding, tax paying citizens. He made the claim in the famous 2011 New York Times article in which he “outed” himself as an illegal alien who had been breaking the law for over a decade. He also made the claim in such places as Time magazine in 2012, on CNN in 2014, and in multiple other venues.

Obama Admin. Again Warning That White ‘Militias’ are as Big a Threat as Islamists

-By Warner Todd Huston

Since the day his regime took over in Washington, Barack Obama’s blinkered “intelligence” agencies have been warning that it is white people, conservative groups, tea partiers, military veterans, and “militias” that are the real danger lurking in America and recently Obama’s FBI did it again claiming that “militias” (read white male gun enthusiasts) are looking to attack Muslims inside the USA.

In a report issued in May only to police departments and other law enforcement agencies, the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division insisted that “militia extremists” are looking to kill Muslims. The report goes on to cite two–yes only two–instances of “militia” leaders saying they are mad at Muslims and may want to target them.

No actual instances of this desire to attack Muslims has been seen, though. Only talk. Still, the FBI is all worried over Americans with guns.

An intelligence bulletin issued by the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division in late May warns that so-called “militia extremists” are likely to begin targeting Muslim institutions, including mosques and other religious facilities. The bulletin titled “Militia Extremists Expand Target Sets To Include Muslims” was obtained by Public Intelligence after being released to law enforcement in late May, just days before a planned “freedom of speech” rally outside a Phoenix mosque which attracted numerous individuals dressed in camouflage, tactical gear and carrying loaded assault weapons.

Based primarily on a “large body of source reporting generated mainly since 2013,” the bulletin states that militia extremists are “expanding their target sets to include Muslims and Islamic religious institutions in the United States.” The recent targeting of Muslims augments prior FBI analysis, contained in a January 2015 report, which found that “established militia extremists target government personnel and law enforcement officers, perceived threats from abroad, and individuals or institutions that seek to constrain Second Amendment rights.”

Harvard Prof Excuses ISIS Sex Slavery and Terrorism Because USA Had Slavery 150 Years Ago

-By Warner Todd Huston

I thought liberals were always congratulating themselves on how they are so mentally superior that they see “nuances” everywhere? Now a halfwit liberal is making the lie to that by equating U.S. slavery to ISIS rape culture thereby proving he is an utter simpleton.

A pinheaded Harvard professor is now out there insisting that we shouldn’t get too upset over the fact that ISIS terrorists are using rape and sexual slavery as a weapon of war because, gosh darn it, the U.S.A. had slavery 150 years ago, too. You heard that right, that is exactly what Bloomberg columnist and Harvard professor Noah Feldman is saying. He is saying that U.S. slavery is exactly the same as ISIS using rape as a tool.

Feldman starts his facile piece with a lie on his lips right at the outset.

It’s been 150 years since U.S. law allowed masters to rape enslaved girls and women. Almost all modern Muslim societies banned slavery in the last century. So why is Islamic State turning back the clock, actively embracing and promoting enslavement of Yazidi women, thereby enabling them to be raped under one interpretation of classical Islamic law?

The first half of that is essentially a lie. U.S. law did not excuse rape of slave women in direct terms in the same way that ISIS is using rape as a tool of war and religious supremacy.

Yes, it was true that negro slave women had no standing in American law during that time period, sure, but it is not true that rape was actually ensconced in that law in certain terms. On the other hand, ISIS is making rape and sexual slavery a directly espoused practice that they are trying to back up via sharia law and interpretations of the Koran. So, the case of early 1800s American law turning a blind eye to the ravaging of slave women and ISIS directly entering sexual slavery into its political and legal codes are not at all the same thing.

There is that “nuance” of which the left claims to have sole ownership. If this nitwit “professor” can’t see the truth I just stated, the “nuance” between then and now, then he truly is a simpleton.

USA Falls Again on Freedom Scale, Thanks to Increase in the Obama-Led Ending of Rule of Law

-By Warner Todd Huston

The USA has fallen another few notches on the freedom scale thanks in part to the increasing lawlessness of Obama and his Democrat cohorts according to the latest freedom list put out by the Cato Institute.

Over the last half dozen years or so the USA has slowly lost ground on the Cato Human Freedom Index. This country was once in the top 5 countries with the most freedom but this year the USA slipped several more places to the 20th spot.

Only last year the US was ranked 17th on this yearly list, but this year we’ve fallen to 20.

This slip in the rankings is mostly due to the fact that businesses are being strangled by oppressive regulations and crushed by rampantly greedy unions. But it also due to the end of the rule of law in the US as government ignores laws, re-tooling them and warps them at will in order to feed its rapacious appetite for complete control of our lives. And most especially the sharp rise in abuse of eminent domain rules allowing government to steal private property on a whim has contributed to American’s loss of freedom.

“Since the year 2000, the U.S. has been on a decline in terms of economic freedom,” Co-author of the report Ian Vasquez told The Daily Caller News Foundation on Wednesday.

Springfield Needs to Stop This Unfair Satellite Tax

-By Lisa Volpe

As the Illinois legislature continues to meet in Springfield with no state budget on the books, there are some who want to implement a new tax on satellite television customers. This is a discriminatory tax that’s perpetually suggested. The bottom line is that the cable industry wants to impose a satellite tax to make it less attractive for consumers.

The idea proponents are floating is to place a new 5 percent tax on every subscriber’s bill for no other reason than to suppress the satellite industry’s efforts to compete with cable.

Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle see this tax increase for what it is and have repeatedly rejected it. Since 2009, the cable industry has tried to pass satellite tax bills 53 times in 28 states – and state legislatures across the country have debated and rejected these new consumer taxes time and again. The reason is simple: satellite taxes discriminate against consumers who chose a wireless alternative to cable for their television.

Cable companies in Illinois pay rent – known as a “franchise fee” – to cities and towns for digging up public roads and for hanging wires. The cable industry somehow thinks satellite consumers should pay a tax simply for providing a competing service.

If You Think Like This, You Are An Idiot…. THERE, I Said It

On a Facebook fan page for a movie today I saw the one reply that I hate the most. It is a reply that smacks of empty-headed, politically correct idiocy. And if you’ve made replies like this yourself, or you agree with the reply, you need to stop it right now.

So, the thread in question was one where people were expressing their opinion of a recent movie release, one where people were sort of giving their mini reviews. While most on the thread liked the film, one did not. Then came this reply after the one who did not like the film raised the ire of several who did…

She is entitled to her opinion. I get that, having the same feelings and worry, but all of you have taught me to be tolerant and I respect her views as well as all of yours. We don’t need to fight in our special group…

If you are one of those nitwits who feel driven to say “everyone is entitled to their opinions,” you deserve to be slapped upside your empty head.

If you ever feel the impulse to write something or say something like the above, STOP IT RIGHT NOW. There isn’t a single intelligent thought in that type of reply. It neither makes you look smart nor compassionate. In fact, it makes you look like a spineless moron who is trying to solve a problem that doesn’t exist.

We Should End Birthright Citizenship Whether Trump Wins Election or Not

-By Warner Todd Huston

One of the key aspects of the new immigration policy that Donald Trump proposed this weekend was to end birthright citizenship, the one rule that has served to create the “anchor baby” phenomenon drawing pregnant mothers to the U.S. from every corner of the world. This would be the right move for any president to make and it would be in keeping with the original intent of the Constitution and its requisite amendments.

Donald Trump came out with his plan to fix immigration on Sunday written with the aid of Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. Along with appearances on the Sunday political talk show, Trump issued a new policy paper to codify his plan. If elected he says he would work to streamline the immigration process, triple the number of Immigration and Customs officers, require companies to hire only American citizens or legal immigrants by implementing the e-verify program, and he would end birthright citizenship.

Of the latter, Trump said that birthright citizenship (BC) “remains the biggest magnet for illegal immigration.”

Millions of immigrant women, pregnant or not, come here in order to have their child born on U.S. soil so that they can then claim citizenship for the child. This action has the benefit of giving cover for family members of that sudden “new citizen” to stay in the U.S. and to give those family members free benefits courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer.

Americans rally against “birth tourism.”

Unfortunately, what we have now is a situation where the law considers someone a “natural born citizen” based solely on the physical location of their birth. If a child is born anywhere inside U.S. territory, that child is an automatic citizen. This might seem logical, but is actually a perversion of the ideas of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It has also become a loophole by which millions of greedy foreigners have grabbed hold of U.S. benefits they do not deserve.

Birthright citizenship should absolutely be eliminated regardless of who becomes president.

Democrats so Fearful of Hillary’s Legal Troubles They Are Actually Pressuring Al Gore to Run Again

-By Warner Todd Huston

This is a sure sign of desperation among the Party elites. Democrats are so afraid that Hillary Clinton is increasingly being seen as damaged goods that some party bigwigs are now trying to convince Al Gore to run for the 2016 nomination. Seriously. AL GORE!

First of all, we see a piece by Fox News’ Chris Stirewalt that reveals that Hillary Clinton is doing very poorly in polling in six key swing states. The fact is, Hillary is increasingly looked upon as a liar that no one, even Democrats, can trust.

And as more and more of these stories about her illegal email service slowly leak out bit by bit, the more her credibility is damaged, especially with independents.

As Media Worries Over Trump, Hillary Clinton Ignored for Saying All Cops and Judges are Racists

-By Warner Todd Huston

As the media continues to lose its tiny collective, hive mind about every little utterance made by Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton has come out to proclaim that every cop and judge is a racist.

Hillary Clinton went on criminal Al Sharpton’s radio show late last week and insisted that all cops are racist toward black men. She also said that the judicial system is inherently racist and can’t properly judge blacks.

During the conversation, Clinton told Sharpton, “I believe we need to end the era of mass incarceration. If you compare arrest records in, you know, in charging of crimes, in convicting of crimes, in sentencing for crimes, you compare African-America men to white men, it is as unfortunately clear as it could be that there is a bias in favor of white men.”

She goes on to praise Obama’s task force on policing “roadmap for reforms.”

So, Clinton just proclaimed all cops, all judges, all lawyers, the whole judicial system, to be a racist system inherently aligned against black people.

Megyn Kelly, Donald Trump and the Tweet of Frustration

-By Warner Todd Huston

On Friday afternoon at 4:43 PM I Tweeted what to me was just a *funny* Tweet about Megyn Kelly, Donald Trump and the first 2016 GOP debates. But nearly 24 hours later it is still getting tweets, re-tweets, messages, shares, and favorites and it doesn’t seem to be slowing at all. Despite that I thought it was just a throw away Tweet, it has revealed a deep cynicism about the media (including Fox News) and a frustration with the Republican Party that has proven to be a major problem that I think will doom any Republican candidate in 2016.

So, on Friday evening I threw out this Tweet about Megyn Kelly’s slap at Donald Trump in the debates on Thursday…

Now, let me get my own intentions explained. To me, I just thought this was an amusing statement of irony. I often post funny quips or photo memes just to get a rise out of people and to see what sort of impact I can make. To me this was just a funny juxtaposition. While Megyn was attacking Trump for being sexist, here she was objectifying herself in these photos. It was just a quick comment on Kelly wanting to have it both ways.

I have nothing against Kelly. She seems to do well enough on her show and her ratings are very good (note I don’t much watch TV news so I have never seen a full episode of her show). It does appear from the clips I’ve seen that she is a tough interviewer. I don’t want her fired and I see no reason to have her kicked off future GOP debate programs–as many do (see this petition demanding Kelly be fired from future debates).

To Recycle or Not to Recycle, Mixed Messages in California

-By Warner Todd Huston

As California looks to initiate a “no waste” policy, a look at the statistics of landfills in and around the San Bernadino area shows that many have either seriously slowed their garbage intake for burial or only increased it slightly. That is, all except the landfills operated by Athens Services, all of which seem to have exceedingly high growth in landfill use. Now some residents are worrying that, unlike the other waste disposal companies, the Athens landfills are burying items that could otherwise be recycled in accordance with state and local laws.

At the same time this is happening, some California counties are aiming at what they call a ”no waste” policy, meaning that practically all garbage will be recycled somehow or another. Despite this far-fetched concept and the unlikely hood of reaching such a goal, most of the state is still slowly edging toward less and less use of landfills.

Certainly, most residents don’t think about garbage after it’s tossed. But, with large tax dollars being spent on waste disposal, residents across the country should look at their service providers.

Here’s why: Athens Services, a West Covina garbage service, seems to be going in the opposite direction of all the others in the area by increasing landfill use and residents want to know why this is happening.

Obama Admin Decides Not to Force FBI to Get Warrants for Email Data

-By Warner Todd Huston

Despite the pressure brought to bear by the public and efforts by Congress, the Obama White House has announced that it will not demand that the FBI get warrants to access email data.

The current law for electronic communications is an ill-fitting scheme that forces law enforcement to get a warrant for emails and other electronic communications that are up to six months old. But for any data older than that the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) only requires a subpoena. But these rules don’t take into account the fact that data can be stored on line for far longer than six months.

The original rules written back in 1986 assumed that such data would be harder and/or expensive to store and might be erased sooner than data is today.

Many Americans want these old, outdated rules changed so it is a bit harder for law enforcement to access American’s electronic communications. Pursuant to that a petition demanding that law enforcement, particularly the FBI, get a warrant for any email data it wants had been turned in to the administration as far back as 2013. Last week the Obama administration finally responded to this petition saying that it won’t require the FBI to change its process for accessing electronic data.

Yes That Black Panther Party Historical Marker in North Carolina MUST Come Down

-By Warner Todd Huston

Did you know that there is a historical marker in Winston-Salem, North Carolina celebrating the founding of a chapter of domestic terrorists and hate group the Black Panther Party? Now there is a petition demanding that the city remove the marker celebrating the hate group.

The marker, situated at the corner of Fifth Street and Martin Luther King Boulevard in Winston-Salem, N.C., was erected in 2012 and celebrates the fact that the state’s fist chapter of the racist group formed on that spot in 1969.


This photo by Bruce Chapman depicts the 2012 unveiling of the historic marker.

The marker hasn’t caused much fuss, really, but after racist black groups have spent the last few months defacing decades old Confederate monuments all across the country and have been demanding that all Confederate history be erased from existence, now there is a move to do the same to this marker celebrating the founding of the city’s racist Black Panther Party chapter.

Obama’s Homeland Security Chief Says Terrorism is NOT Caused by Islam

-By Warner Todd Huston

This is why we are failing to stop Muslim terrorists. If we can’t identify who the enemy is, how can we fight him? The question is pertinent since this week Obama’s Secretary of Homeland Security insisted that Islam is not the cause of any terrorism in the world today. How can he say that? Because he claims that terrorists aren’t really Muslims. Oh, you heard that right, America.

DHS secretary Jeh Johnson was recently at a security forum where he flat out refused to identify terrorists as Muslims. Then he went even further to claim that anyone who says that terrorists are Muslims are insulting Islam.

Sec Johnson was asked why he and Obama steadfastly refuse to call the terrorists “radical Muslims” or identify terrorists as Islamists.

“I believe strongly – and I hear this over and over again from Muslim leaders in this country – that to refer to ISIL as ‘Islamic extremism’ concedes too much. It dignifies them as occupying some part of the Islamic faith, which is about peace. And so if you call it ‘Islamic anything,’ uh, we are dignifying this terrorist organization with occupying a part of the Islamic faith which Muslims in this country I know, push back very strongly on,” Johnson said. “So If I went into these [Muslim] communities calling it ‘Islamic extremism,’ I’d get nowhere.”

When the host of the event pointed out that most people feel this is just blatant political correctness, Sec. Johnson replied, “I could not disagree more.”

Charlie Hebdo: A Perfect Example of Why Liberals Should be Hated

-By Warner Todd Huston

Ed Morrissey reminded me today that I wanted to say something about this foolish cave in to Islam perpetrated by the Charlie Hebdo magazine folks. And the long and short of it is that the people running this magazine are proof that modern liberalism is venal, ignorant, stupid, and evil and should be eschewed by any logical, caring, thinking person.

The whole world came to the side of the Charlie Hebdo folks after Muslims came and killed 12 members of the magazine’s staff. These 12 people were murdered because the magazine indulged in the ages old western right of freedom of speech without which we simply cannot have a growing, dynamic western culture.

These 12 people were murdered because they dared to make fun of the “Prophet” Mohammad–hate and death be upon his name. Immediately after the murders the remaining staff of Charlie Hebdo said that they were not going to back down and that their freedom of speech was sacrosanct.

That was as it should be, of course. If they would have stuck with that they should have everyone’s respect. No westerner should succumb to what is known as the “assassin’s veto.” Meaning that a killer will have the final word through his threat of murder thereby shutting down free expression.

VIDEO: NBC Talking Head Says FCC Should Fine Media That Refuse to Use the Correct ‘Transgender’ Label

-By Warner Todd Huston

Revealing her inner fascist, another far left-wing NBC talking head went on TV today to say that if you don’t use the proper “transgender” term being bandied about this week you should be fined by the government and charged with “misgendering” people.

This is the perfect example of how the well-worn phrase “scratch a liberal and you’ll find a fascist underneath.” It is evidence that all liberals are fascist authoritarians. They claim they love “freedom” but their love of YOUR freedom stops as soon as you do something they don’t like.

The wacko in question this time is one Danielle Moodie-Mills who was identified as an “NBC Black Contributor” on MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry Show this morning.

New York’s New School Rules for Transgendered Kids Would Allow Boys to Play on Girls Sports Teams

-By Warner Todd Huston

If things go as planned by advocates of the few so-called “transgendered” kids in the state of New York’s school system, boys will be able to join girls sports teams if those boys are pretending to be girls (and vice versa).

The new rules would essentially make kids sports entirely meaningless at least as far as records and wins goes. The rules do so by upending the natural limits on physical abilities inherent in sports when you keep boys and girls segregated by gender.

Worse, the new rules won’t even require the purportedly transgendered students to supply much by way of documentation to prove they are serious about being transgendered.

Advocates say that the whole state needs to be inconvenienced because there are maybe as many as 12 transgendered students in the whole state.

The new rules would also allow these kids to simply decide on their own which locker room they want to use.

Obama Takes Pledge to Defend the USA Out of Oath of Allegiance for New Citizens

-By Warner Todd Huston

Obama has decided that newly naturalized Americans will no longer have to pledge to defend the USA against enemies. So, he’s taken out the part of the pledge requiring new citizens to bear arms on behalf of the United States or perform noncombatant duties in the armed forces in times of war.

This month Obama’s U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services ruled that effective on July 21 of this year, candidates for naturalization will be able to skip the services clause while taking the oath to become Americans.

So that means that in an age when people are streaming here to pretend to become Americans in order to commit acts of terror, now Obama won’t even ask them to mouth the words that as newly minted citizens they will defend the USA against foreign enemies.

Obama’s Answer to Terrorism Against Our Troops: Have Them Remove Their Uniforms

-By Warner Todd Huston

On the heels of a terrorist attack on two military recruiting offices in Tennessee by a Muslim immigrant, the Obama administration announced a policy change to help prevent future attacks. Was it to finally arm our soldiers? Nope. It was to have them take off their uniforms. No really!

According to the Military Times, Obama’s weak-kneed Defense Secretary Ash Cater approved the decree that recruiters should take off their uniforms while performing their recruitment duties from now on.

So, now recruiters will be wearing…. what, shots and a t-shirt? Or better yet, maybe a burkah or maybe some turban-styled head covering. All in order to cringe in front of Islamic terrorists while pleading, “oh, please, please, Mr. terrorist, don’t kill us.”
