Items of Interest 1

This item sets the stage for most of what follows.  It captures my sentiments and I am sure those of many others.   https://www.theburningplatform.com/2018/02/04/the-fisa-memo-obama-and-the-election-that-almost-wasnt/

Much has been made in past items of the relationship between political correctness and Cultural Marxism.  This item does a good job discussing the subject.  The problem is that far too many people either do not get the connection or choose to ignore it.    https://www.theburningplatform.com/2018/02/03/political-correctness-is-cultural-marxism/   Political correctness is cultural Marxism in action and is demonstrably a very potent weapon in the liberal Democrat party's arsenal which they are using to destroy our nation's cultural heritage.

More about the ravages wrought by political correctness.  Hopefully this scourge imposed on us by progressives and Democrats is a dying breed. Quote: "I have been commenting on social justice propaganda for quite some time; long before it was fashionable to do so, and long before there was an organized movement of support to defend commentators who dared to question the insane dictates of the cult of political correctness. In my article The Twisted Motives Behind Political Correctness, published in early 2014, I outlined the basic philosophical underpinnings of political correctness and what these beliefs tend to lead to. At the time, the future for champions of individual liberty and reason appeared rather bleak. Today, I am happy to say the backlash against “third-wave feminism” and cultural Marxism has expanded beyond anything I could have dreamed."    https://boblivingstonletter.com/alerts/post-mortem-corpse-social-justice/

This item suggests that the socialistic liberal left has been working on this effort for some time.  Given the spate of white supremacy nonsense being spouted by academia, media and leftist politicians it seems the cat is out of the bag.  Not sure if this is so but evidence seems persuasive. You can't help but note the persistent Democrats railings about and demands that free uncontrolled admission into our country of un-vetted immigrants from anywhere at any time is a mandatory American trait.  They say to think otherwise is hateful, bigotry, racist and un-American. Watch this video produced by the far left hate group SPLC's...It is a"Secretly filmed lecture by the SPLC. Here’s the admission at 3:10 regarding the demographic replacement of Whites by immigration. Although some want to halt immigration to stop this replacement, she says you can’t, “these are some things that have been planned for a while.”   https://www.theburningplatform.com/2018/02/03/these-things-have-been-planned-for-a-while-your-demographic-replacement/   Seems they do have a plan and are doing their best to pull it off.  True?  You decide.

This adds a different perspective to the subject of illegal immigration.  Quote: "What will happen to future generations if we continue to hand political power to “the stranger?”  For the Democrats who are pushing full amnesty, citizenship and chain migration, their motives are perfectly clear; they are simply trying to solidify their political power for the next ten generations. No matter what Congress and President Trump decide to do about the illegal Dreamer program, the political power of citizenship must not be a part of the package."    http://christianpatriotdaily.com/articles/citizenship-for-dreamers-not-according-to-the-bible/

If the political left has any sense left it needs to understand the simple facts presented in this piece.  Immigration must be tightly controlled and only accept those who can contribute value to our country.  Democrats seem not to care one bit about the character of people they want to come in.  Their objective is to stuff the ballot boxes and they do not care who they can get. They just want loyal voters - to heck with their character or the nation's citizens and their welfare.   http://www.occidentaldissent.com/2018/02/03/the-avengers-italian-fascist-goes-on-rampage-shooting-against-african-migrants/

A well reason piece by Pat Buchanan.  Quote: "“All the News That’s Fit to Print” proclaims the masthead of The New York Times. “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” echoes The Washington Post. The people have a right to know,” the professors at Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism hammered into us in 1962. “Trust the people,” we were admonished.  Explain then this hysteria, this panic in the press over the release of a four-page memo detailing one congressional committee’s rendering of how Trump-hate spawned an FBI investigation of Republican candidate and President Donald Trump."    https://www.theburningplatform.com/2018/02/02/a-never-trump-press-in-near-panic/

More about the FBI and collusion with Hillary's camp.  The Wall Street Journal editorial page included an article blasting the FBI and DOJ.  Quote: ""We don’t know the political motives of the FBI and Justice officials, but the facts are damaging enough," the editorial board said. "The FBI in essence let itself and the FISA court be used to promote a major theme of the Clinton campaign. "Afterward they continued to leak all this to the press to cast doubt on the legitimacy of Mr. Trump’s victory. "No matter its motives, the FBI became a tool of anti-Trump political actors," the editorial said. "This is unacceptable in a democracy and ought to alarm anyone who wants the FBI to be a nonpartisan enforcer of the law."    https://www.newsmax.com/headline/trump-tweet-media-poll-numbers/2018/02/03/id/841293/?

Another piece with keen insight into the currents driving the whole FBI debacle. Quote: "The casual observer — say, one who is immune to the charms of Donald J. Trump — can’t fail to notice that there is a bit more smoke emanating from the upper echelons of the FBI than has yet been seen in the sludgy narrative called “Russian Meddling in the 2016 Election.” Going into two years of that yarn, not one concrete detail has emerged. Meddled how? For all the “we now know” talking points uttered by Grand Inquisitor Rachel Maddow, it seems to me that we now know next to nothing about “collusion” between Russians and Trump, while we know a great deal about the indelicate behavior of FBI officers in important positions with grave responsibilities — government agents with the power to wreck lives — who cooked up an enormous hysteria in the body politic."   https://www.theburningplatform.com/2018/02/02/sotu-klaatu-barada-nikto/ 

A role reversal has taken place.  The investigators are now being investigated and rightly so.  Quote: "The Intelligence agencies’ pressures on President Trump to block the House of Representatives’ decision to release a summary of the FBI’s highly classified misdeeds are instructive comedy. The House’s decision shows what no one should ever have doubted: the FBI, CIA, etc. are not the source of authority over America’s secrets. They merely administer secrets and clearances on behalf of the one and only authority over the Executive Branch: The President of the United States. He clears them — not the other way around. Congress, as a co-equal, popularly elected branch of government, may hold or release such information as it chooses, and pay such attention as it chooses to the President’s opinions. Thus far, the Constitution."  And, "The FBI and the Justice Department’s bureaucracy, being out of options for saving their reputations, their pensions, and perhaps for keeping themselves out of jail, urge President Trump to advise the House to guard the secrecy of the summary, of the activities that it describes, and hence to save their bacon. The Democratic Party pretends to care so much about national security, to have such faith in the FBI’s stewardship of it, and such diffidence of the American people’s capacity to judge such matters, that its leading spokesmen have joined the agencies’ demand on Trump. This is as rich constitutionally as it is politically. The Agencies, having told the country and President Trump for a year that they are the arbiters of secrecy, scurry to get back under the presidency’s protective power by asserting that this power extends over Congress as well."   https://spectator.org/intelligence-recognizes-presidential-authority-a-case-of-too-little-too-late/?
