Not every incident in Iran 'necessarily has something to do with us,' Israeli defense chief says after fire at Natanz nuclear site

Israel's defense minister has rebuffed speculation that Tel Aviv was behind the recent incident at an Iranian nuclear site. He reiterated, however, that Tehran's nuclear program is a threat to his country.

Defense Minister Benny Gantz said that he was "not sure" whether Iranians always follow safety protocols on their strategic sites.

Everyone can be suspicious of us all the time. But not every incident that happens in Iran necessarily has something to do with us.

Gantz reiterated, however, that "a nuclear Iran" is a threat to Israel. "We will do everything possible to prevent Iran from spreading terror and weapons, but I do not refer to any individual event," the minister said.

Tehran confirmed earlier this week that its Natanz nuclear enrichment facility was damaged in an unspecified incident. Imagery released by the country's Atomic Energy Organization shows the damaged facility, with burn marks and apparently blown-off gates.

Iranian media and some officials have floated the idea that the site was targeted by a cyberattack from Israel or the US. The country's authorities say they have already determined the true cause of the incident, promising to provide further details at a "convenient time."

The Natanz incident came amid a series of incidents at Iranian strategic sites, including a blast at a weapons development facility outside Tehran.

CBS’s Brennan: White House Has Not Approved Interview Requests for Dr. Fauci for Three Months

Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” anchor Margaret Brennan said that the White House had denied their interview requests of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci for three months.

Brennan said, “It may be the most sobering morning after the fourth of July in America’s history as we wake up to the fourth day in a row of more than 50,000 new reported cases of COVID-19. They are on the rise now in 40 of 50 states. We are committed to bringing you the facts about the virus and the most knowledgable guests that we can.”

She added, “We think it’s important for our viewers to hear from Dr. Anthony Fauci and the Centers for Disease Control. But we have not been able to get our requests for Dr. Fauci approved by the Trump administration in the last three months, and the CDC — not at all. We will continue our efforts.”

Sen. Tammy Duckworth: ‘We Should Listen To The Argument’ For Removing George Washington Statues

Democratic Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth said Americans should “listen to the argument” for removing monuments to George Washington, the first president of the United States.

During a Sunday morning appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Duckworth was asked by guest anchor Dana Bash to react to President Donald Trump’s defense of U.S. monuments during his Thursday night speech at Mount Rushmore.

“I know that you support changing the name of military bases named after Confederate leaders, but there are leaders like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson who were slave owners, and some are demanding their monuments come down too. In your view, where does it end? Should statues of George Washington come down?” Bash asked.

“I’ll say we should start a national dialogue on it at some point, but right now we’re in the middle of a global pandemic,” Duckworth responded before accusing Trump of spending “more time honoring dead Confederates” than speaking about those who have died from coronavirus.

“That may be true, but George Washington, I don’t think anybody would call him a traitor and there are moves by some to remove statues of him,” Bash pressed. “Is that a good idea?”

“I think we should listen to everybody,” the Illinois senator said. “I think we should listen to the argument there, but remember that the president at Mount Rushmore was standing on ground that was stolen from Native Americans who had actually been given that land during a treaty.” (RELATED: New York Times Ripped For Describing Trump’s Mount Rushmore Speech As ‘Dark And Divisive’)

Duckworth again criticized Trump for his coronavirus response, saying she is “more worried about the 130,000 who have lost their lives recently and the thousands and thousands more Americans who are currently sick than I am our historical past.”

German Police Raid Neo-Nazis Allegedly Plotting Mosque Arson Attack

Police in the German regions of Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-West Pomerania and Saxony-Anhalt have conducted several raids against a neo-Nazi group that was allegedly plotting an arson attack against a mosque.

Police identified at least seven members of the “Free Forces Prignitz” aged between 32 and 40 who are believed to have been involved with a plot to set a mosque on fire in the town of Wittenberge. According to Torsten Herbst, spokesman for the police headquarters in Brandenburg, the men planned to use Molotov cocktails.

Herbst added that the suspects also allegedly planned to attack businesses owned by migrants or those with migration backgrounds as well, German tabloid Bild reports.

During the raids, investigators found live ammunition, several bladed weapons and are also said to have found various pieces of pro-Nazi material including propaganda and “Nazi devotional items.” A police spokesman added that investigators also seized electronic devices and were still searching them. Around 150 officers were involved in the raids in Brandenburg alone.

The raids are come just months after another set of large-scale raids across the country aimed at members of the so-called Reichsburger movement, a group that does not recognize the current German constitution as legal or legitimate.

The raid this week echoes a similar police operation in 2017 that saw two people arrested who were allegedly plotting to also attack migrants, Jews, and police officers. They were also members of the Reichsburger movement.

Earlier week, it was revealed that the German army special forces command (KSK) would also be partially dissolved due to many members of the unit showing sympathies to far-right ideologies.

The German Military Counterintelligence Service (MAD) claimed that members of the KSK were five times more likely to hols what they called extremist views than regular members of the German Bundeswehr.

Texas Doctor Reverses Coronavirus Symptoms In 100% Of Cases With Inexpensive Treatment

Texas family doctor Dr. Richard Bartlett joins Debbie Georgatos on her show American Can We Talk to discuss a potential COVID CURE!

Dr. Bartlett describes how he has been treating Covid-19 patients with 100% success rate using an inexpensive safe treatment that is commonly used for people with asthma.

The treatment is enhaling a steroid called budesonide using a nebulizer. Dr. Bartlett says many patients experience rapid relief from Covid symptoms after the first treatment.

It’s the same treatment that worked in crowded countries like Taiwan, Singapore and Japan who’ve had very few deaths compared to countries that locked down. Therefore, Bartlett questions the effectiveness of mandatory masks, social distancing or a vaccine.

He explained that a vaccine is unnecessary because the mortality rate is so low and effective treatments already exist. And he emphasized that vaccines would be ineffective because of constant mutations to the coronavirus.

“The beautiful thing about the treatment that using is that no matter how many times it mutates it’s universally going to work because it decreases the inflammation. It’s a respiratory anti-inlammatory solution to a respiratory inlammatory problem.”

“Don’t Let Them Vaccinate You”: Farrakhan Warns Africans That Dr. Fauci Is Trying To Kill Them

It is bad enough when you become a political rally cry for the right as a man trying to destroy our economy or instill fear into the nation. Now, Dr. Anthony Fauci is being called a mass murderer who, with the cabal of Bill and Melinda Gates, are seeking to “depopulate the Earth.” That is hardly the most deranged thing that Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, 87, has uttered, but it may be the most dangerous. Farrakhan is encouraging people to refuse vaccinations, a problem that is already causing world health leaders concerns in Africa. This is viewed as the new “epicenter” for the pandemic with Africans facing a threat with the need to protect hundreds of millions of Africans. Health officials will need their cooperation but they have now heard from Farrakhan who has declared that, if they want to live, “Do not take their medication.”

In this Fourth of July remarks, Farrakhan declared that

“They’re making money now, plotting to give seven billion, five-hundred million people a vaccination. Dr. Fauci, Bill Gates and Melinda — you want to depopulate the Earth. What the hell gave you that right? Who are you to sit down with your billion to talk about who can live, and who should die?

… I say to my brothers and sisters in Africa, if they come up with a vaccine, be careful. Don’t let them vaccinate you with their history of treachery through vaccines, through medication.”

He added “That’s why your world is coming to an end quickly, because you have sentenced billions to death, but God is now sentencing you to the death that you are sentencing to others.”

The Honorable Minister Farrakhan is spitting truth to power

— Tariq Nasheed 🇺🇸 (@tariqnasheed) July 4, 2020

This could not come at a worst time for Africa which could face a devastating loss of life from this pandemic if officials cannot get cooperation in accepting the developing vaccines.

I grew up in Chicago and watched local and national figures avoid direct confrontations with Farrakhan throughout the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s despite his hateful views. Years of enabling this virulent anti-Semite has allowed him to foster a worldwide following. Now, he is combining his signature conspiracy theories to a world pandemic in a way that could cost millions of lives. Farrakhan has flourished due to mixed signals from leaders, including appearances with him by leaders like current Minnesota Attorney General (and former Democratic National Committee leader) Keith Ellison. (After anti-Semitic comments in 2018, some of these figures did publicly criticize Farrakhan). Figures like the Rev. Al Sharpton and the Rev. Jesse Jackson have repeatedly appeared with this race-baiting maniac. Indeed, the failure to denounce Farrakhan was previously an attack by Hillary Clinton against Barack Obama. Yet, both Bill and Hillary Clinton were criticized for appearing at a funeral with Farrakhan.

In truth, few of these leaders can be fairly criticized as supporting Farrakhan’s views and many have criticized such comments. Indeed, his support is hardly helpful for most politicians, including his statement that he likes what he sees in Donald Trump. However, he still seems to linger on the edges of our politics and still has defenders among influential figures. Most recently, CNN’s Jake Tapper was told by actor Ice Cube to “Watch your mouth Jake” after Tapper tweeted that “Farrakhan is a vile anti-LGBTQ anti-Semitic misogynist. Why is a Fox channel airing his propaganda?”

Actress behind BLM protest in Whitehall disowns 'Marxist' Black Lives Matter, saying it's a separate group 'hijacked' by far-Left activists who want to tear down capitalism and abolish the police

A prominent organiser of Britain’s Black Lives Matter protests believes the campaign has been ‘hijacked’ by a group of far-Left activists.

In an outspoken attack, Imarn Ayton, 29, also voiced fears that people may have donated towards a high-profile online fundraising campaign without realising that those behind it want to tear down capitalism and abolish the police.

Ms Ayton, an activist and actress, said she organised the Black Lives Matter rally in London’s Parliament Square on June 6 and a peaceful protest in Hyde Park on June 20.

She claimed that Black Lives Matter UK, the campaign group behind the fundraising campaign that has raised more than £1 million, had not been involved in organising the demonstrations.

‘A lot of people assume they were the driving force behind the protest when in actual fact they just support the protests,’ she told The Mail on Sunday.

‘The BLM movement is a separate entity to BLM UK. I have no contact with BLM UK and they have not been on the ground once.

‘The issue with BLM UK is they have not revealed themselves, they have not been transparent. They are abolitionists, they believe in the removal of prisons, smashing capitalism and abolishing the police.’

Riot declared in Portland for THIRD night this week as protesters besiege federal courthouse

Portland police used tear gas against protesters who had erected barricades and shot fireworks at the Hatfield Federal Courthouse in the city. Friday was the third riot in Portland this week.

Several hundred activists marched on Friday evening into the streets around the courthouse in downtown Portland, bearing makeshift shields and diverse materials they used to erect some barricades, police said.

In the early hours of Saturday, the situation became increasingly volatile, with Portland police declaring a riot at around 4am local time. Officers deployed tear gas and pushed the protesters away from the courthouse.

Earlier in the night, a group of protesters burned several small fires and shot fireworks in the air and at the courthouse building itself.

They also used powerful lasers and flashlights to blind CCTV cameras. US flags were burned at the site, as well as on the spot where the city's iconic elk statue used to stand before being damaged on a previous night of protests.

Police said protesters pelted them with projectiles and pointed lasers in officers' eyes. Several people have been arrested.

Bill Gates blames social media platforms for COVID-19 spread in U.S.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates blamed social media companies such as Facebook and Twitter for the spread of misinformation about COVID-19 during the pandemic.

"Can the social media companies be more helpful on these issues? What creativity do we have? Sadly, the digital tools probably have been a net contributor to spreading what I consider crazy ideas," Gates said in an interview with American business magazine Fast Company.

The "crazy ideas" include misinformation convincing people to not wear masks, and conspiracy theories about vaccines to combat the disease.

"A lot of it comes in the form of conspiracy, where someone's got some plot and my name even comes up as potentially at the center of some conspiracies, so it is a bit scary," Gates said, adding that people want to be driven towards the facts in the pandemic.

In 2015, Gates warned about global pandemics in a TED Talk. This now-realized prediction has raised the conspiracy theory that the billionaire is responsible for creating the novel coronavirus, and netizens have been questioning the purpose of his heavy investments in vaccine development.

"We are in a crazy situation so there's going to be crazy rumors," he said during an interview with CCTV in April, adding that best resources, including experts, vaccine developers and drugs are necessary to stop the current global pandemic.

"We need to make it [a vaccine] without just focusing on one country, we need to make it for the entire world, including for countries that don't have the resources to pay for vaccine research or vaccine factories," said Gates.

A Facebook spokesperson responded to Gate's criticism by highlighting the company's initiatives to help cope with the global crisis.

"Since January, we've worked closely with health organizations, like the CDC, to connect people to accurate information about COVID-19 and we will continue to do more," the spokesperson said in an email to Fox News.

Michigan Passes Controversial Bill To Microchip Humans Voluntarily To Protect Their Privacy

The Michigan House of Representatives has passed a controversial bill to microchip humans voluntarily in the state under the guise of protecting their privacy. The Microchip Protection Act would allow Michigan employers to use microchipping of their workers with their consent. However, research has shown that RFID transponders causes cancer.

The plan to microchip humans is sponsored by Rep. Bronna Kahle under the guise of protecting the privacy of workers. The stated objective of the bill is that it will protect the privacy rights of Michigan workers and promote further growth for job providers as it relates to microchipping – a cutting-edge technology on the rise that increases workplace efficiency.

“With the way technology has increased over the years and as it continues to grow, it’s important Michigan job providers balance the interests of the company with their employees’ expectations of privacy.”

“Microchipping has been brought up in many conversations as companies across the country are exploring cost-effective ways to increase workplace efficiency. While these miniature devices are on the rise, so are the calls of workers to have their privacy protected.”

Rep. Bronna Kahle, the Republican who sponsored the bill, said in a press statement.

Radio-frequency identification tags, commonly referred to as microchips, are beginning to seep into the marketplace as new technological devices to help streamline everyday business practices. The chips, roughly the size of a grain of rice, are implanted into the hands of employees and act as a replacement for I.D. badges, timecards, usernames and passwords for security clearance, and even credit cards.

“Despite this type of technology not quite making its way into our state yet, I wouldn’t be surprised if it becomes a standard business practice statewide within the next few years,” Kahle said. “We should absolutely take every step possible to get ahead of these devices.”

Under Kahle’s plan, Michigan employers would be able utilize microchipping, but could not mandate employees to have such devices implanted. Kahle said the measure strikes a good balance between protecting workers’ rights and providing businesses with flexibility to increase efficiency and further grow.

However, research has shown that RFID transponders causes cancer. Research has suggested 90 percent of Americans are uncomfortable with microchipping mostly due to studies that suggested a link between RFID transponders and cancer in lab animals.

While the world was distracted, Hillary Clinton lost her appeal and will now have to testify about her private email server on Sept. 9

Just days after the George Floyd incident occurred, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton lost her appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, during which she tried, but failed, to avoid having to testify under oath about her emails and the Benghazi case. But much of the world failed to notice because the mainstream media was too busy broadcasting all the riots and looting in response to “racism.”

Judicial Watch, the same group that is now suing Anthony Fauci and the World Health Organization (WHO) over the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, had filed a lawsuit against Clinton demanding that the State Department release documents and communication associated with the 2012 terror attack at the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya. As many of our readers well know, U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, along with three other Americans, were killed in the attack.

Clinton was Secretary of State at the time, and has been accused of illegally using a private email server during her time in office. Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against Clinton to examine any potential misconduct in which she may have been engaged. Some of Clinton’s private emails have been retrieved from her unsecured server, but evidence emerged to suggest that Clinton had “tried to delete or destroy” all of the most incriminating ones.

It was also revealed that Clinton had asked former United Kingdom prime minister Tony Blair to keep communicating with her via her private email server after her confirmation. This earned Clinton the descriptor of being “extremely careless” in her handling of classified information, though she was never actually charged by the FBI under then-director James Comey.

Your crimes are finally catching up with you, Hillary

Our readers probably know the rest of the story up until June 2 when Clinton’s lawyers challenged a March 2 order from U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth ordering her to testify. This order stated:

“The Court is not confident that State currently possesses every Clinton email recovered by the FBI; even years after the FBI investigation, the slow trickle of new emails has yet to be explained. For this reason, the Court believes the subpoena would be worthwhile and may even uncover additional previously undisclosed emails. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS this request,” referring to the request from Judicial Watch.

It went on to indicate that Clinton would, in fact, be deposed on matters related to her use of a private email server, as well as her understanding of the State’s record management obligations. While Clinton and her cohorts cannot be questioned about any actions they took after the Benghazi attack, they can be questioned “about their knowledge of the existence of any emails, documents, or text messages related to the Benghazi attack.”

When the time comes on September 9, Clinton will have to answer for why she deleted 33,000 emails from her private email server, and what they contained. Despite repeated claims that these emails were “personal,” the FBI has already recovered more than 17,000 of them that were, in fact, work-related. Clinton will also have to answer for why senior Obama administration officials knowingly misled the country about what actually happened during the Benghazi attack.

“Did they contain any classified information,” Dr. Veronika Kyrylenko asks about Clinton’s emails, writing for American Thinker. “Did they contain human intel? Did [Clinton] know about the upcoming terrorist attack? What measures did she use to prevent the Benghazi attack? What measures did she use to save the American lives?”

“And now, despite all the effort to avoid testimony, Madam Secretary will have to answer questions from Judicial Watch, as the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals submitted the case, which will now be heard on September 9. Stock up on your popcorn, America.”

“Without Freedom of Thought, there can be no such Thing as Wisdom”

The following published is a letter penned by a young Benjamin Franklin under the pseudonym Mrs. Silence Dogood to his brother James’ newspaper The New-England Courant, printed therein on July 9, 1722. It is the eighth of such letters in a series, and speaks to us through time. The idea contained here represented what would become the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights over 60 years later.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

There’s a reason it was the First. As we prefer it above anything else we could say at present, we’ll post it here without further adornment.

Yours, etc.,

A & M

To the Author of the New-England Courant.

Sir,

I prefer the following Abstract from the London Journal to any Thing of my own, and therefore shall present it to your Readers this week without any further Preface.

“Without Freedom of Thought, there can be no such Thing as Wisdom; and no such Thing as publick Liberty, without Freedom of Speech; which is the Right of every Man, as far as by it, he does not hurt or controul the Right of another: And this is the only Check it ought to suffer, and the only Bounds it ought to know.

“This sacred Privilege is so essential to free Goverments, that the Security of Property, and the Freedom of Speech always go together; and in those wretched Countries where a Man cannot call his Tongue his own, he can scarce call any Thing else his own. Whoever would overthrow the Liberty of a Nation, must begin by subduing the Freeness of Speech; a Thing terrible to Publick Traytors.

“This Secret was so well known to the Court of King Charles the First, that his wicked Ministry procured a Proclamation, to forbid the People to talk of Parliaments, which those Traytors had laid aside. To assert the undoubted Right of the Subject, and defend his Majesty’s legal Prerogative, was called Disaffection, and punished as Sedition. Nay, People were forbid to talk of Religion in their Families: For the Priests had combined with the Ministers to cook up Tyranny, and suppress Truth and the Law, while the late King James, when Duke of York, went avowedly to Mass, Men were fined, imprisoned and undone, for saying he was a Papist: And that King Charles the Second might live more securely a Papist, there was an Act of Parliament made, declaring it Treason to say that he was one.

“That Men ought to speak well of their Governours is true, while their Governours deserve to be well spoken of; but to do publick Mischief, without hearing of it, is only the Prerogative and Felicity of Tyranny: A free People will be shewing that they are so, by their Freedom of Speech.

“The Administration of Government, is nothing else but the Attendance of the Trustees of the People upon the Interest and Affairs of the People: And as it is the Part and Business of the People, for whose Sake alone all publick Matters are, or ought to be transacted, to see whether they be well or ill transacted; so it is the Interest, and ought to be the Ambition, of all honest Magistrates, to have their Deeds openly examined, and publickly scann’d: Only the wicked Governours of Men dread what is said of them; Audivit Tiberius probra queis lacerabitur, atque perculsus est. The publick Censure was true, else he had not felt it bitter.

UN Declares World Peace!

Kumbaya and pass the bubbly! World peace has been achieved!

What, haven’t you heard? The UN Security Council just passed a resolution that calls for a global ceasefire as a type of “humanitarian pause” while the world deals with the coronavirus pandemic that (we are told) is wreaking such havoc on the human population.

Or, as the UN puts it:

The Security Council on Wednesday echoed the Secretary-General’s call for a worldwide ceasefire, to combat the coronavirus pandemic that has already claimed more than half a million lives. The UN chief welcomed the long-awaited move, calling for countries to “redouble their efforts for peace”.

This tells us three things:

1) Our noble leaders love us and care for us and want to protect us during this time of crisis.

2) The pandemic must be real and it must be supremely grave, because why else would the Security Council be acting like this?

3) We can expect the next 90 days to be a heaven on earth where the nations of the world lay down their arms and live in peace and harmony.

Right?

Well, not exactly. You see, the resolution asks member nations to cease all of their military operations except “military operations against Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL/Da’esh), Al-Qaida and Al-Nusra Front, and all other individuals, groups, undertakings and entities associated with Al-Qaida or ISIL, and other Council-designated terrorist groups.” But other than that wee little asterisk, that’s it. War is done-zo! . . . For three months, anyway.

So, wait, why did the Saudis just launch a fresh military campaign against the Yemenis? Didn’t they get the memo? What on earth is going on here?

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Stephen Hahn appeared on multiple Sunday morning political talk shows to discuss the coronavirus pandemic.

On CNN's "State of the Union," he declined to confirm President Trump's claim that 99 percent of COVID-19 cases are "harmless." On ABC's "This Week," he said he couldn't predict when a vaccine would be ready despite Trump's timeline claims.

Multiple local officials also discussed coronavirus, which is making a resurgence in the U.S.

Israel is about to bomb Gaza

Three rockets fired at Israel from Gaza as border region heats up

2 projectiles apparently land in open fields in southern Israel, third missile intercepted following launch an hour later, days after Hamas vows to oppose annexation

Three rockets were fired from the northern Gaza Strip into Israel Sunday evening, as tensions along the border region appeared to flare amid Israeli plans to annex parts of the West Bank.

Two rockets apparently struck an open field at around 7 p.m., the military said, without causing injuries or damage.

About an hour later, rockets sirens again rang out in the southern Israeli Sha’ar Hanegev as another rocket was launched out of the Strip. The rocket was intercepted by the Iron Dome anti-missile system, according to the army.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility.

The normally restive Gaza border region has seen months of calm since a flare-up of violence in February, amid reported intensive efforts to reach a long-term truce deal between Israel and Hamas.

But tensions have risen in recent days, with Gazan terror groups vowing to oppose Israeli plans to annex parts of the West Bank under the Trump administration’s peace plan rejected by the Palestinians.

Late last month, Gaza’s Hamas rulers warned that in the event that Israel goes ahead with applying its sovereignty over settlements and the Jordan Valley as provided for in the US peace plan, it would amount to a “declaration of war” against Palestinians.

A day later, on June 27, Palestinians in Gaza fired two rockets at Israel. The rockets fell in open areas and did not cause casualties or damage. One rocket landed in an open area in the Sha’ar Hanegev region, while the second apparently fell within the Strip.

Israel retaliated with strikes on Hamas sites, saying it held the terror group responsible for attacks from Gaza.

On Wednesday, sources in Hamas claimed the Gaza-based terror group had fired a volley of rockets into the sea as a warning to Israel not to annex parts of the West Bank.

However, the IDF said it was unaware of any such launch, and there was no additional confirmation.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s center-right coalition government had set July 1 as the date from which it could begin implementing US President Donald Trump’s Middle East peace proposal, annexing territory. But there was no announcement last Wednesday or any day since.

Trump’s Mount Rushmore Speech SET A TRAP for the Far Left and They TOOK THE BAIT!!!

Steve Turley explains that the MOST ACCURATE POLL now calculates there is a 91% chance Trump gets re-elected! As well he explains the brilliance of Trump’s strategy to hold a campaign rally AT Mt Rushmore

ON July 4th: So far the Marxist mobs have waged their wanton destruction locally targeting monuments in cities and towns. Yes Americans take umbrage to this but when it’s far away from ones’ own frame of reference it’s not such a major deal.

By holding a campaign rally at the monument with perhaps the greatest National Civic significance on the date of the most historical significant moment, Trump dared the Marxist mob to condemn each – which they foolishly did.

By getting the Marxist mob to condemn BOTH these most momentous symbols of American Civic Nationalism Trump resolved the matter at its macro limit: Do you want an America of great Civic Nationalism, tradition, Christian values, freedom, free market prosperity and the free society – or do you want a militant nihilism at war with such Civic Nationalism and ultimately at war with itself?

Turley points out that there is fundamental internal contradiction within the BLM movement. On the one hand it is pushing a modernist Marxism which implies a one size fits all, common man, shared ‘worker’ identity. On the other hand it is pushing a post-modern, racial tribalist identity COMPLETELY ANTITHETICAL to Marxism’s universal man.

That is why the more radical factions of BLM have already turned against White Liberals which it now tars with the brush of ‘White Liberal Supremacism’. Turely I find provides an excellent philosophico-religious counterpoint and supplement to the Duran’s own excellent politico-legal journalism and analysis.

Inside the wicked saga of Jeffrey Epstein: the arrest of Ghislaine Maxwell | 60 Minutes Australia

In Israeli Settlements, Money Is On Annexation Real Estate Boom

In the Jewish settlement of Ariel, Perri Ben Senior can't wait for Israel to annex this part of the occupied West Bank, hoping it will be a boon for her real estate firm.

With its 20,500 residents, a university and shopping centres, Ariel has been tipped as one of the settlements likely to be included in a first wave of Israeli annexations taking advantage of support from US President Donald Trump.

A controversial peace plan unveiled by Trump in January promised US backing for Israel to annex swathes of the West Bank, including Jewish settlements considered illegal under international law.

Speaking at her real estate agency, Ben Senior said she hoped Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would forge ahead with implementing Trump's plan.

"It will raise the price of apartments and land because there will be more demand," she anticipated.

Chicago Mayor Lightfoot: 'We're Making Progress' After 13 Bodies Lie Dead in the Street

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot tweeted out a hopeful message following the shooting death of a 7-year-old girl in the city’s Austin neighborhood.

Fox News:

“Tonight, a 7-year-old girl in Austin joined a list of teenagers and children whose hopes and dreams were ended by the barrel of a gun,” Mayor Lori Lightfoot wrote on Twitter. “We cannot grow numb to this. We are making progress in slowing shootings, but we have to do better, every single one of us.”

Progress, madam? I got your “progress” right here.

Chicago Sun-Times:

Thirteen people have been killed and 54 others wounded in shootings across Chicago so far over the Fourth of July weekend.

Nine of the weekend’s victims were minors, and two of the children died from their injuries.

If 67 people were hit by bullets, how many shots were actually fired? The gunfire on Chicago’s streets must sound to those who served like they were back in Baghdad or Mogadishu.

Fox News:

The girl, identified by her family as Natalie Wallace, was outside her grandmother’s home at a Fourth of July party in the city’s Austin neighborhood around 7 p.m. when a vehicle pulled up and three men got out and started shooting indiscriminately, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.

The girl was shot in her head and pronounced dead after she was rushed to a hospital, police said, according to Chicago’s FOX 32.

A 32-year-old man shot during the same attack was in fair condition, FOX 32 reported.

I can remember when 8 people getting shot in the same incident made national headlines. But two separate incidents of mass casualties in one weekend? it’s just another night in Chicago.

A 14-year-old boy was among four people killed in a shooting that wounded four others Saturday night in Englewood on the South Side.

They were at a large gathering in the street about 11:35 p.m. in the 6100 block of South Carpenter Street when four males walked up and started shooting, according to Chicago police. The 14-year-old boy was hit in the back and pronounced dead at Comer Children’s Hospital.

Three other male victims were pronounced dead, two at the scene and one at the University of Chicago Medical Center, police said. Their ages were not immediately known.

This wasn’t a drive-by shooting. It was a walk-up crime. No need to hurry up and get away. No cops to worry about.

You want to grab Lori Lightfoot by the shoulders and shake her until it registers: “Your city is bleeding to death and you’ve got to do something!”

Would it hurt some of your supporters’ feelings if you brought in the National Guard? Probably. And residents certainly won’t like it very much. Activists will scream bloody murder. Newspapers and media commentary will string you up and you will be hung in effigy.

But your city will be safer. And maybe it will save the lives of a few children.

De Blasio Called 'Atrocious' by Former NYPD Commissioner

Caroline Graham of the Daily Mail:

Murder figures have skyrocketed and a combination of the coronavirus pandemic, Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests and weak political leadership is in danger of achieving what Osama Bin Laden never could: bringing the Big Apple to its knees.

Those murder figures are jaw-dropping.

According to figures released by the New York Police Department, for the first six months of this year, there were 176 murders, an increase of 23 per cent on the 143 killed during the same period last year.

The number of shooting victims has gone up 51 per cent to 616 this year. In June alone, there were 250 shootings compared to 97 in the same month last year. Month-on-month, burglaries are up 119 per cent and car thefts up 48 per cent.

It used to be that even liberal mayors wouldn’t have allowed a mob to take over their streets — for any reason. The city’s only black mayor, David Dinkins, drastically lowered the crime rate, put hundreds of more police on the streets, and during riots in Crown Heights after a black man stabbed a Hasidic Jew, he quickly deployed an overwhelming force to quell them.

But de Blasio is no liberal. He’s a radical left ideologue with a yellow streak a mile wide. And his inaction has cost the city dearly.

New York Post:

“This mayor is atrocious,” [former NYPD Commissioner Ray] Kelly told John Catsimatidis on his 77 WABC radio show in a Sunday interview. “If I had a magic wand I’d remove him. But, unfortunately, what’s waiting in the wings is no better.”

Kelly called the New York City Council’s cutting $1 billion from the police department a “kind of kabuki financing,” adding “we have de Blasio here for another 18 months.”

Kelly, who served as commissioner under former mayors David Dinkins and Michael Bloomberg, said de Blasio is kowtowing to protesters rallying against the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis on May 25 and his actions have “sapped the strength of the department.”

De Blasio’s shortcomings in dealing with the coronavirus outbreak have been well-documented, including allowing the transit system to continue to operate for weeks after the lockdown began. This proved to be catastrophically stupid as it turned the outbreak into an out-of-control pandemic, leading to tens of thousands of deaths.

But it’s in the streets that de Blasio’s utter incompetence has been revealed for all to see.

“Crime is raging out of control here in New York City,” Kelly said. “I don’t see anything that’s going to change the trajectory of that continuing to rise. There are disorderly groups all over the city challenging police officers. … Police are generally backing off … because their political leaders, the mayors … are telling cops to back off.”

And Kelly is astonished at the silence of Democrats.

All the while, Kelly said Democrats have remained quiet.

“It’s such a change from years ago. You just don’t hear anything from [Democrats],” Kelly said. “They’re sitting on their hands. Or they’re being very supportive [of] taking down the statues. … That’s what they’re interested in. That’s what they’re supporting. Rather than, ‘Hey, let’s get some good old basic law and order.’ What about everyday citizens?”

What will New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and other big American cities look like in five years? Ten years? With only the very poor and very criminal elements left, Snake Pliskin won’t even want to go there.

Acting CBP commissioner on border patrol deployed to Portland amid unrest: 'Where are the local political leaders?'

'We're not walking away from our federal facilities like police departments have in some communities,' Morgan says

Acting Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Mark Morgan asked, “Where are the local political leaders?” after violence rocked Portland, Ore., overnight, and border patrol agents were called in to assist.

“What we saw in Portland last night was criminal and we stood strong with our federal partners to resist that,” Morgan told “Fox & Friends Weekend” on Sunday.

Police in Portland declared a riot around 11 p.m. local time Saturday as Independence Day marked the 38th consecutive day of civil unrest in the city.

Videos showed graffiti painted on downtown buildings and showed a fire burning as a crowd gathered.

Journalist Andy Ngo, writing on Twitter, claimed rioters were burning American flags “while shouting BLM and antifa slogans.”

“These are not protesters, these are criminals who got together and organized and planned and actually brought weapons, they brought shields, they brought frozen water bottles, rocks, lasers, weapons with the intent to destroy a federal building and harm law enforcement officers,” Morgan said on Sunday.

He added, “I don't care what your idealogic beliefs are, your political affiliation, violence, we should all be united, is wrong.”

He went on to say that he’s glad that President Trump “understands the importance of law and order and that it's a cornerstone of American society.”

Unrest in Portland and other cities has continued since the May 25 death of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis. The death set off demands for more police accountability, including the “defund the police” calls for cities to slash police department budgets – or even eliminate police departments.

Morgan said “one of the criminals” was “trying to assault one of the CBP employees while he was being arrested” overnight.

He went on to say that according to the situation report “a pipe bomb, a fused incendiary device and machete was actually discovered during that search.”

“Think about the deadly consequences from the criminal actions,” he added.

Morgan went on to say, “It's a game to them, it's a deadly game.”

“It’s serious. This is about law and order. We must be united,” he continued. “Where are the local political leaders, standing up, saying this is unconscionable, this is wrong, and these individuals should cease and desist and be arrested? Where are they?”

Narco Jet Allegedly Shot Down By Mexican Federal Police

A private jet allegedly packed with drugs was intercepted by the Mexican Federal Police near the Felipe Carrillo Puerto Municipality in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo.

La Jornada, one of Mexico City's leading daily newspapers, reports the jet landed on a highway in flames after being attacked by a Mexican Federal Police "gunnery helicopter."

A gunnery helicopter from the armed forces opened fire this morning against a small plane, which had to make an emergency landing on the Chunhuhub-José María Morelos highway section, in the central-western region of Quintana Roo, the head of the Secretariat of Public Security (SSP) of the state, Alberto Capella Ibarra.

The official said on his Twitter account that "the registration of the aircraft is apparently XB-RCM and could be related to illegal activities. Federal authorities attending to the investigation."

Initial reports indicate that around 7:30 am this Sunday an Army helicopter that was flying over the area opened fire on the aircraft.

The plane began to emit smoke and later landed on the highway and caught fire, according to unofficial reports.

Witnesses who broadcast videos on Twitter report that the aircraft landed smoothly and was set on fire by its crew, who fled the scene.

Other versions indicate that, upon landing, the crew of the ship unloaded a shipment of drugs they had on board and placed it inside a van in which they fled, which they abandoned kilometers later.

Capella asked motorists to avoid the affected stretch of highway.

Federal authorities had come to the area to carry out the corresponding investigation. - La Jornada

A bunch of videos of the private jet burning on the highway has surfaced on social media in the last hour.

Justin Bieber Divides Fans by Calling on Them to Turn to God

The 26-year-old Canadian singer has an extensive history of legal troubles – from reckless driving and driving under the influence, to vandalism and physical assault. In 2014 more than 270,000 people signed a petition to the White House asking to deport the musician; however, there was no response from the Obama administration.

Social media users were divided by Justin Bieber’s post on Instagram, in which the singer thanked Jesus for forgiveness and spoke about his past mistakes, urging fans to turn to God if they are struggling with problems.

The singer was baptised in 2014 in a church in New York in what he described as a born again experience and since then has repeatedly spoken about faith and praised Jesus for being an inspiration in his life as well as helping to overcome past problems such as drug use.

The singer’s latest post drew a mixed reaction. Some users were happy and lauded the singer.
