Cartoonist Ben Garrison Disinvited From White House Summit After Cries Of Anti-Semitism

Conservative political cartoonist Ben Garrison has been disinvited from a White House Social Media Summit on Thursday over cries of anti-Semitism, according to Politico Playbook.

THE WHITE HOUSE told us last night that Ben Garrison, the cartoonist who drew this cartoon that has been widely labeled anti-Semitic, will no longer be attending the administration’s social media summit. As of Tuesday morning, Garrison was invited – he posted the invite he got on Twitter – and people in the administration were privately defending the invitation.

OF COURSE, it doesn’t take much to see why the cartoon is considered anti-Semitic. It shows the Rothschilds – a Jewish family – controlling George Soros, another Jew, on puppet strings, who, in return, has David Petraeus and H.R. McMaster wearing military garb, attached to puppet strings. Jews controlling the strings of government is a decades old anti-Semitic meme.

BUT IT DID TAKE ALL DAY to get the White House to engage on this subject. At first, they responded to questions about Garrison by offering a boilerplate statement saying that President DONALD TRUMP “wants to engage directly” with people who have experienced social media bias. But they wouldn’t say if and why he was invited, punting on the guest list. -Politico Playbook

The move comes after several prominent liberal pundits such as CNN's Jake Tapper and former Clinton campaign aide Yashar Ali brought to light a cartoon which was labeled Anti-Semitic by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL).

Garrison issued a statement on Wednesday, which reads in part: "Yesterday I had a discussion with the White House and we came to the conclusion that my presence at the Social Media Summit would be a media distraction from the President's message. They were nice about it, but naturally, I'm disappointed."

"… It is obvious to anyone with commnon sense that I am not anti-Semitic. I have received many emails of support from my Jewish friends. I'm not anti-Semitic merely because the ADL says I am."

Garrison notes that the ADL contines to "commit libel against me by having an altered cartoon on their site. It features a cartoon with the face of an offensive Jewish stereotype pasted over my cartoon. My signature remains on that cartoon and they are holding it up as an example of my anti-Semitism."

Attorney Robert Barnes is on the case:

It will be ironic to have to sue the "Anti-Defamation League" for…defamation. (ADL covered up racism previously when it suited their allies). Yet, they continue to libel @GrrrGraphics with a fake cartoon falsely ascribed to him. Retract, or get sued @ADL https://t.co/azzFDlUyZv

Clinton-Era State Department Official Breaks Down in Tears as She’s Sentenced to 40 Months in Prison For Conspiring With Chinese Agents

Candace Marie Clairborne on Tuesday broke down in tears as she was sentenced to 40 months in prison for conspiring with foreign agents.

U.S. District Court Judge Randolph Moss, an Obama appointee said, “sentencing is never easy,” but also called Claiborne’s crime, “a truly grave offense, a betrayal of her employer and a betrayal of her country” before giving her 40 months in prison in a D.C. courtroom, reported Fox News.

“I still don’t know how I lost myself,” Clairborne said. Then through tears, “I want to apologize to the government… and my family for what I have done,” reported Fox News producer Jake Gibson.

The Department of Justice announced in April that a former State Department employee who also happened to be a Clinton appointee, pleaded guilty to conspiring with foreign agents.

The FBI arrested Candace Marie Claiborne on March 28th, 2017. She made her first appearance in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia the following day.

According to the DOJ, Candace Marie Claiborne, a former employee of the U.S. Department of State, pleaded guilty in April to a charge of conspiracy to defraud the United States, by lying to law enforcement and background investigators, and hiding her extensive contacts with, and gifts from, agents of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), in exchange for providing them with internal documents from the U.S. State Department.

Recall, Candace Marie Claiborne had a TOP SECRET security clearance and provided internal State Department documents to Chinese agents in exchange for gifts and benefits.

Claiborne also noted in her journal that she could “Generate 20k in 1 year” working with one of the PRC agents, who, shortly after wiring $2,480 to Claiborne, tasked her with providing internal U.S. Government analyses on a U.S.-Sino Strategic Economic Dialogue that had just concluded.

Claiborne, who confided to a co-conspirator that the PRC agents were “spies,” willfully misled State Department background investigators and FBI investigators about her contacts with those agents, the plea documents state. After the State Department and FBI investigators contacted her, Claiborne also instructed her co-conspirators to delete evidence connecting her to the PRC agents, the DOJ said.

Sounds just like Hillary Clinton, so why isn’t Hillary in prison too?

Crooked Hillary Spotted Dancing the Night Away in New York City After Bill Denies Epstein Knowledge

Crooked Hillary Clinton and her girl Huma Abedin were seen dancing the night away in New York City Tuesday evening at the Earth, Wind and Fire concert.

Hillary and Huma attended the Earth, Wind and Fire concert in the midst of the Epstein scandal.

Hillary didn’t let the controversy and scandal prevent her from having a good time — typical behavior of a sociopath.

Florida billionaire Jeffrey Epstein was arrested on Saturday in New York for sex trafficking of minors.

Prosecutors unsealed an indictment against Jeffrey Epstein on Monday. The court accused Epstein of sexually abusing dozens of young girls for years at one of the biggest mansions in Manhattan, paying them hundreds of dollars in cash for each encounter and hundreds more if they could recruit other victims.

Just one day before Hillary attended the concert in New York, Bill Clinton released a panicked statement denying he had knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein’s terrible crimes.

Former President Bill Clinton broke his silence on Monday and released a statement on billionaire sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

In Bill Clinton’s statement Monday he claimed he “knows nothing about terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida.”

Clinton admitted to taking a total of four trips on Epstein’s airplane and also admitted to visiting Epstein’s apartment in New York, however he insisted his security detail was always with him.

Clinton’s claim that his Secret Service were with him every during every trip is bogus because according to reports he simply ditched his security detail in order to stealth travel with Epstein.

In May 2016 FOX News reported that Bill Clinton traveled with Jeffrey Epstein on his famous “Lolita Express” at least 26 times and frequently ditched his secret service detail.

ICE Raids Begin as DHS Targets ONE MILLION Illegals

http://12160.info/video/ice-raids-begin-as-dhs-targets-one-million-illegals

Sen. Charles Schumer Got Thousands in Donations From Jeffrey Epstein

Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), who called on Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta to resign over his handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case around a decade ago, received thousands of dollars in donations from the financier, who is accused of sex trafficking.

Schumer’s team acknowledged the donations and said he’d pass them on to groups fighting against sex trafficking and violence.

“While these campaign accounts closed about 20 years ago, and even then the campaign never controlled the two political action committees (PACs), Senator Schumer is donating an equal sum to anti-sex trafficking and anti-violence against women groups,” Schumer’s spokesman Angelo Roefaro told the New York Post.

It wasn’t clear if Schumer’s team was asked why he took the money, how he knew Epstein, or why he didn’t return the funds after Epstein pleaded guilty to two state prostitution charges in 2008 after being accused of molesting dozens of girls.

Federal election records showed Epstein donated $7,000 to Schumer from 1992 through 1997 in addition to donating $10,000 to Victory in New York and $1,000 to Win New York in 1998. The former was a joint fundraising committee established by Schumer, according to the Post.

Schumer previously donated the amount of money he received from accused rapist Harvey Weinstein to multiple charities.

Schumer took to the Senate floor on July 9 calling on Acosta to resign and demanding the Department of Justice make public a review of how Acosta handled the case.

Schumer also said President Donald Trump should expand on his relationship with Epstein.

Acosta Defends Role In Jeffrey Epstein Deal, Says Original Charges Offered No Jail Time

Department of Labor secretary Alex Acosta defended his role in a deal with accused pedophile Jeffrey Epstein during a press conference Wednesday amid calls he should resign from the Trump administration.

Acosta argued that he actually strengthened the case against Epstein in Florida as opposed to watering it down, as some have accused him of doing. The deal, made in 2008, meant that Epstein pleaded guilty to solicitation of underage prostitutes in exchange for serving 13 months of jail time and registering as a sex offender.

According to Acosta, the original charges against Epstein brought forth by state prosecutors would have ended with no jail time for the billionaire. Instead, Acosta’s office took over the case and arranged a deal to make sure Epstein went to jail or faced harsher federal charges.

“[Epstein] would have avoided prison all together. But then the United States attorney’s office in Miami became involved. Epstein got an ultimatum. Plead guilty to a charge is that would require jail time and registration or face federal charges. And that was the week more than ten years ago that Epstein went to jail,” Acosta said, describing the deal. “We did what we did because we wanted Epstein to go to jail. He needed to go to jail…that was the focus.” Acosta added.

He continued, “Simply put, the Palm Beach State Attorney’s office was ready to let Epstein walk free, no jail time, nothing. Prosecutors in my former office found this to be completely unacceptable. And they became involved. Our office became involved.”

Acosta also claimed that department policy at the time was to blame for a federal judge finding that the U.S. attorney’s office did not appropriately notify victims of the deal.

Epstein is now facing additional charges of child sex trafficking, according to an unsealed indictment in New York City. Epstein has pleaded not guilty to the new charges, which accuse him of creating a “network” of young victims of sexual abuse. Acosta said, “He’s a bad man and he needs to be put away.”

Billionaire Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein Sent Bill Clinton $3.5 Million From Secret Swiss Bank Account

Feb 10, 2015

Billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein sent $3.5 million to Bill and Hillary Clinton‘s foundation after an underage sex slave probe began, according to secret Swiss bank records leaked by a whistleblower.

As RadarOnline.com has previously reported, Hillary Clinton is reconsidering her 2016 presidential bid because of fears of the embarrassing revelations that could emerge in the coming months about Bill Clinton’s dealings with Epstein.

Sworn statements from Virginia Roberts — the woman who claims she was a teen sex slave forced to have sex with Prince Andrew — also includes the allegation that she saw the former president on Epstein’s “orgy island.”

“I remember asking Jeffrey, ‘What’s Bill Clinton doing here?’ kind-of-thing and he laughed it off and said, ‘Well, he owes me a favor’ … he never told me what favors they were,'” Roberts told lawyers.

The details of the shocking money transfer are contained in internal bank data that a computer expert took with him when he left HBSC bank in 2007 — and recently provided to several news agencies, including London’s Guardian newspaper.

The paper reports that, in addition to the $3.5 million sent to the Clinton foundation from his secret Swiss bank account, Epstein also wired $25,000 to another Clinton charity in July 2006. (Palm Beach Police began their investigation of Epstein’s abuse of young girls in March of 2005, according to the police report obtained by Radar.)

The FBI joined the investigation in 2006 amid evidence that dozens of underage girls had been abused by Epstein and his friends, but the billionaire dodged federal prosecution thanks to a sweetheart deal negotiated with the Justice Department by lawyers including Ken Starr, the special counsel who ironically investigated Clinton’s financial dealings and sex allegations during his presidency.

The FBI probe was halted and its files tightly sealed — including all security camera video that might show the sex activities of Epstein and his pals — in exchange for his guilty plea to two relatively-minor underage sex charges.

A subsequent lawsuit, challenging that non-prosecution agreement, accuses federal officials of being pressured by powerful men to stop the FBI investigation.
