Now at The American Spectator
President Trump's executive action on immigration is a terrific shock to international socialism, whose sinews, including "free" trade, mass immigration/open borders, Globalism First, have come to undergird the American Way. In such a Marxian system, borders, the nation-state, America First, are not just anathema, they are "reactionary" relics, and effectively defunct. Or supposed to be.
In other words, no president is ever supposed to not only say but act on the following:
In order to protect Americans, the United States must ensure that those admitted to this country do not bear hostile attitudes toward...

The movers and shakers of today have little interest in digging for the truth. Who knows what one may come up with? You may start out with the communists, and end up with yourself.
-- Vladimir Bukovsky, Judgement at Moscow, Chapter 1
In 2009, Vladimir Bukovsky delivered a striking speech setting forth his ideas about why it was the West did not win the Cold War. These same ideas served as stepping stones in my own excursions in American Betrayal.
Among them, Bukovsky, a co-founder of the Soviet dissident movement incarcerated for many years in USSR labor camps, prisons and psychiatric hospitals, discussed the crucial failure of the West to render judgment on the evils of the Soviet system on its dissolution in 1991.

Read about the four (4) members of the Rosenberg Ring who went to high school where and while Philip Horowitz taught here.
---
I don't really know what to do with this stuff as it pops up, except to post it, kind of like an open desk drawer.
So, to that end, and in brief, two items.
I was watching David Horowitz on with Tucker Carlson, who introduced him by saying some such: "David Horowitz is someone who knows about Russians. HIs parents were ardent Commnuists who left the Party after learning of Stalin's atrocities."
This is, to be sure, how Horowitz makes it out, writing in Radical Son that on reading about Krushchev's famous speech about some...

Behold the Washington Post Style section of January 3, 2017.
All but the trimmings of Page One and Two belong to a woman named Amanda Kleinman, who, we are told, is the leading victim of the headline's "Troll Patrol" -- online harassment resulting from that "viral fake news conspiracy theory" known as "Pizzagate."
What is "Pizzagate?" Whatever it is, it is either not on the media menu (a la Breitbart); or it is served up by news organs such as the Washington Post as a complete nothing -- the original scoop of "fake news" as cooked up by "the Internet" beginning with the John Podesta Wikileaked emails that include possibly unusual, possibly coded references to "pizza," also something called "Spirit Cooking."
For example, in one of the stranger "pizza" exchanges, a realtor on Martha's Vineyard writes to Democrat moneybags Susan and Herbert Sandler (the latter, per Wikileaks, a patron of Podesta) to let them know that some items were forgotten in a rental, including "a square cloth handkerchief (white with black) that was left on the kitchen island." Do they want it back?

From inner sanctum to inner sanctum, this is the conversation that has been buzzing around the District of Columbia:
So, the Deplorables won an election and sent their man to Washington. Well, now, he's on our turf and plays by our rules.
Yeah!
So goes the collective thinking of "Washington," that shining co-op on a hill, where average men and women of above-average ambition and self-esteem have flim-flammed their way through the ballot box, climbed the think tank ladder, or honed the corporate sound-byte to come together in a promised land of uniparty perks and and special kind of firepower, suit-and-tied workers dedicated to preserving that same liberal world order foisted on the American people so very long...

Still rubbing my eyes, to be honest.
On listening to President Trump's Inaugural address, I could not have been more pleased than to have heard, loud and clear, the theme of "America First." This is the revolutionary underpinning of the Trump movement, a re-ordering of the liberal "world order" that the Bushes and Clintons and Obamas on the stage yesterday represented, vanquished, in a transfer of power unlike any other in memory.
The People have just repudiated these policies; however, they remain the framework and orientation for politics and media establishments in America and elsewhere. This is precisely why it was so significant that Trump reiterated the America First theme. The brand new president eschewed the dangerously doctrinaire platitudes of "universalism" and "democracy building" of all modern Inaugural addresses (forgoing passing plaudits from Washington elites) not only because it really seems he doesn't believe them, but because he also seems to understand that his power derives directly from the 63 million Americans who voted for him. If he checks out on them and "goes Washington," they check out on him, and he's done. It's a match made-in-America heaven.

A constant need, an occasional series --
When Sen. Joseph McCarthy died, shockingly, at the age of 48, he, his aides and his committee had identified at least fifty Soviet agents, ideological communists and Fifth Amendment pleaders, dedicated to the overthrow of our constitutional system, and loyal/sympathetic to Stalin, Mao and a new wave of genocidal dictators. (Indeed, here are two more.)
It was the late M. Stanton Evans, America's greatest McCarthy expert, author of Blacklisted by History,...

Now at The Daily Caller.
"Russian hacking" is the Left/Never-Trumpers' explanation for Donald Trump's election.
In their furrowed-brow-telling, they have recently discovered something called "Russian interference" and "Russian influence." Don't ask where so many of them have been all of our lives, because they've spent about the past century telling us there was no such thing.
That was then. Today, they insist that this newfound "Russian interference" and "Russian influence" secretly drove nearly 63 million American deplorables to reach for that GOP lever again and again to vote for Donald Trump, not Hillary Clinton.
Let me squeeze in a little historical context. The late, great Sen. Joseph McCarthy himself was not wont to make such sweeping, conspiratorial...

These topics make an apt duo, both being about the lengths to which free people go to enslave themselves to Party and/or party discipline: in the former case, the press and political class puling out the stops to undermine Trump; in the latter, the press and political class...

In a world where journalism was about breaking news and not preserving the information vaccum, the da-da-esque "Russian hacking" mantra would be a joke around any newsroom -- not received and hallowed orthodoxy to the exclusion of any possibly emerging facts, testimonies, logic, historical context, or even conjecture that might cause a sentient being to doubt it.
In such a healthier world, where journalism was about exposing tyrants, crooks and conspiracies, the toxic tangle of overlapping links and financial connections between John Podesta, the Center for American Progress (the think tank he led), and Russian state piggy banks would not remain for months near-exclusive to investigative journalist Peter Schweizer.

Here is a video of a new speech I unveiled at a July 13 symposium on "American Strategy: The Way Forward," sponsored by the Institute for the Study of Strategy and Politics. The speech is titled, "`America First' in America, 1940-2016."
I have one correction: In listing the widely variious Americans who participated in the America First Committee priot to World War II, I mention William Henry Regnery as the eventual founder of Regnery Books. The founding publisher was his son, Henry Regnery.

Arizona's legendary Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio held a press conference yesterday to present the latest findings of the Cold Case Posse investigation into the veracity of the Barack Obama long-form birth certificate displayed on the White House website.
Much background here.
I have embedded the video of the event in full because it is a 100 percent sure bet that the press will not report it accurately -- or not report it at all.
In a nutshell, the posse presents brand new evidence that the Obama long-form online display is a fraudulent document -- a forgery.
This new evidence, initiated by WND and Jerome Corsi, was developed by the sheriff's office and Mark Gillar. It indicates that there are nine points of forgery between the Obama...

In 1950, Supreme Court Associate Justice Robert H. Jackson listed the critical differences that separate the Communist Party from all other American political parties, as related in American Betrayal:
Among the six key differences Jackson cited— including Party aims to seize power by and for a minority, Party membership secrecy, the Party requirement of unquestioning obedience to Party authority—he wrote, “The Communist Party alone among American parties past or present is dominated and controlled by a foreign Government.”
He continued, “The chain of command from the Kremlin to the American party is stoutly denied and usually invisible, but it was unmistakenly disclosed by...

In many ways, my 2013 book American Betrayal is a history of Big Lies -- where they come from, how they are weaponized, and how they subverted our democratic republic despite the yeoman efforts of American patriots, largely forgotten, or, in the singular case of the late, great Sen. Joseph McCarthy, eternally slandered, to wrest the truth from American liars, many of whom are now on pedestals.
In the current chatter about "fake news," its origins in the totalitarian manipulations of the Big Lie, that flexing of ideology, political power, and what we used to call mass media that first came together over 85 years ago in the Ukraine Terror Famine, have been lost.

We return, serene, from the first snows in the North Country

to find "fake news" blanketing the region.
What is "fake news"? The short definition is, Anything that doesn't advance the Left/Establishment agenda. It has rapidly become the falsest term of art, a mere slogan, much like "war on women," that masquerades as a dire warning label against our very grasp on reality. Did Donald Trump win 31 states on November 8, thus becoming president-elect of the United States?
Yes, but ... "fake news." Don't you know?... Russian influence on the election. CIA and all that ... hush hush.
No one in the propaganda business (formerly known as MSM) even tries to connect these disjointed dots, doubtless because doing so requires filling in with the grotesque depth and breadth of corruption and malfeasance involving Democrat political and media machinery as (partly)...

U.S. Marine Gen. James Mattis, Centcom Commander, Afghanistan, 2011
--
Having been over COIN with a fine tooth comb for years, my entries on Kilcullen, Mullen, Petraeus, McChrystal, Allen and their ilk, up and down the chain of command (including their bunkum-swami, Greg "Three Cups" Mortenson), are quite voluminous. I find no Mattis, however. This is a little curious, given his shared role with Petraeus in "catalyzing" the bankrupt COIN doctrine and manual, not to mention his allure for COIN-happy Bill Kristol, who tried and failed to energize an anti-Trump presidential groundswell for Mattis last spring.
Those two counts alone should...

It is hard to decide whether Ronald Radosh is more incompetent than liar; or more liar than incompetent. What marries the two, however, is a malicious intent to deceive so maybe it hardly matters.
Take the latest Radosh mess, or, to use the term a la mode, his latest installment of "fake news" aimed at Trump senior strategist Stephen K. Bannon. I refer to Radosh's increasingly non-credible story that Bannon came up to him at a "book party" at the Breitbart Embassy, which doubles as Steve Bannon's home, and, unsolicited, revealed himself to Radosh to be a "Leninist."
Radosh has now pegged this alleged incident to three different dates -- surely evidence of incompetence ... but then there are all the lies.
All of it is increasingly hard to overlook out there, as when Salon executive editor Andrew O'Hehir's incredulity shows through on...

Mr. President, Members of the Court,
When I decided to address you here today, by making a final statement in this trial against freedom of speech, many people reacted by telling me it is useless. That you, the court, have already written the sentencing verdict a while ago. That everything indicates that you have already convicted me. And perhaps that is true. Nevertheless, here I am. Because I never give up. And I have a message for you and The Netherlands.
For centuries, the Netherlands are a symbol of freedom.
Who one says Netherlands, one says freedom. And that is also true, perhaps especially, for those who have a different opinion than the establishment, the opposition.
And our most important freedom is freedom of speech.
We, Dutch, say whatever is close to our hearts.
And that is precisely what makes our country great.
Freedom of speech is our pride.
And that, precisely that, is at stake here, today.

American POWs in the Korean War
In a well-researched story with links to key documents, Morgan Chalfont of the Washington Free Beacon reports that the Pentagon officials hired and paid by US taxpayers to find US servicemen still missing and unaccounted for from the wars of the 20th century, including World War II, told their Russian counterparts in May of this year that there was "no evidence" that US troops missing in the Korean War had been taken to the Soviet Union.
"No evidence"? The claim is so fantastic,...

I am wondering how to write about The War on Steve Bannon without using the smear terms "white nationalist," "racist," "anti-semite," that are continuously blasting out in heavy streams of toxic waste at Bannon's reputation, career and, please do not forget, soul, as the media-political complex reassembles to overwhelm and neutralize this great and talented patriot as he prepares to take the strategic helm of the Trump White House.
The good news is that support is all around him, as colleagues and strangers, former employees and business partners, political allies and even a council leader in Samaria publish articles, statements and testimonials, denying these heinously baseless charges, exposing them for the tactical dark ops of the Establishment that they are.
The key thing to understand about this War on Steve Bannon is that it is a war on all of us. If he goes down, we go down. If he goes down, Trump's presidency goes down. That's because in this war to demonize Bannon's beliefs and opinions, ours are being demonized, too. Love of country, with borders? "White nationalism." America First trade and foreign policy? "Racism." Run a stupid headline by David Horowitz? "Anti-semitism." If they win, we lose. For keeps.

Here it is, folks, the nitty gritty on the revolution inside the education system that graduates the hysterics we see on the campuses and in the streets who seem mentally unable to grasp the fact that an election took place, and their candidate lost.
You know what? They are unable to grasp this fact or any other. That's because, as the deeply knowledgeable Robin Eubanks explains to Jeff Nyquist and Allen Dos Santos on "Update Brazil," they have been so taught and by design. Children learn ideas and attitudes at school, not facts, and we are seeing the results in action: Soros fodder.

The New York Times may well have included a question mark in the headline -- "Is Fashion's Love Affair with Washington Over?" -- but there is zero doubt. So nutsy-cuckoo are these creative critters that they are convinced that the election of Donald Trump, which brings to the White House a handsome family of gorgeous fashion models and fashion brands, is the end of Everything Fashion.
The thought of not having to come up with four years' worth of jewel-tone pant suits, Mao jackets and oven mitts actually has them blubbering into their schmatas. Why? Because the Left lost power.

About that popular vote victory the Left is claiming over Donald Trump.
The latest tallies show that after millions of Americans citizens, fraudsters and non-citizens voted for president, Donald Trump won 59,704,886 votes and Hillary Clinton won 59,938,290.
That's 233,304 more votes in Hillary's column. But is this margin of popular victory the will of legally registered American voters?
In 2014, three political scientists from Old Dominion University and George Mason University looked back at earlier elections to study whether any of an estimated 19.4 million adult non-citizens in the US voted in the 2008 election. After much surveying, sampling and extrapolating, their best guess -- the "adjusted estimate" -- was to suggest that a whopping 1.2 million...

The polls for Trump are promising, too. And three cheers for Wikileaks and also Judicial Watch for doing the job American journalists won't do. Still, there remain several eternities between us and Election Day, so for any fence-sitters out there, here are a few must-reads.
The first is an interview at Pajamas Media with Kathy Shelton's lawyer and advocate, Candice Jackson, by John L. Work, a retired law enforcement officer, whose many years as a detective included investigating multiple sex crimes.

A word from Dutch Party for Freedom (PVV) leader Geert Wilders on why he is not participating in his continuing persecution by the Dutch state in yet another "hate speech" trial over the vital political question of immigration policy and border control.
"Do you want more of less Moroccans?" Wilders asked in a stump speech -- and so the State puts him in the dock, as if this were not a question mere Dutch voters should ever hear, weigh and vote on, potentially braking the governing parties' mass import of Moroccans and other Muslims into once-Dutch society, where, it is a repetitious matter of record, Moroccans are grossly over-represented in jihad, welfare and crime statistics.
Meanwhile, it is not as if these same governing politicians do not react, and cholerically so, to these same problems. See what three Labor Party politicians have variously stated: "We also have shit...

The tweets, which I missed the first time around, are the vile ravings of a demented person. They are also, in postmodern parlance, "sexist," "offensive" and demeaning -- dehumanizing -- to anyone reading such stupidly obscene invective about an exceptional American woman who is a wife, mother, former governor or Alaska, and former GOP vice presidential candidate.

There is something almost magical about this three and a half minutes of video, capturing that pre-debate moment when Donald Trump began again to pull back his slingshot and aim, this time with more accuracy and sureness, at the Uniparty-Unimedia Behemoth; this time, with righteous women at his side.
Paula, Juanita and Kathleen: Thank you for standing up and speaking out about what the Clintons did to you for all these many years. Kathy, thank you for coming forward more recently to add your name to this crucially important quest to expose the Clintons' corruption and violation not only of your precious persons, but of the entire body politic.
You, and women like you, personally suffered the torment that the rapacious and meglomanical Clinton couple has inflicted; and that the political-media phalanx, from MSM-Left to Bush-Family-Right, which has served and protected the Clintons for all of these decades, made seemingly eternal.

As the globalists leave what they hope and pray and have planned and calculated is a sinking USS Deplorables, opening hatches as they disembark, preening, in a cloud of noxious hypocrisy, it is not enough to say, Good riddance.
It is time to nail their hypocrisy to the wall, revealing the moral depravity underneath -- and, more immediately dangerous, the political movement that will finally and completely destroy this nation under another Clinton.
This is a long (maybe lifelong) project. But time is short. I will focus today narrowly on the hypocrisy of the onslaught du jour -- how it is that the political-media complex is trying to eliminate Donald Trump before Election Day with calls for him to "step aside" over his 2005 hot mic conversation on a tv set with host Billy Bush. This was released to "the press" on the same day that a signal 2013 speech to a Brazilian bank by Hillary Clinton came to us little people, not from the dark arts masters of the Clinton campaign, of course, but through Wikileaks.

While pondering whether we will ever realize how good we had it when riches and plenty were such that the Washington Post could freak out about "gender barriers" in bartending (...let that sink in a moment...) I note the extent to which the Food section is raw agit prop.
From midway down the lead story by M. Carrie Allan, "Get Everyone in the Mix: The craft cocktail has helped some women rise as bartenders, but old biases die hard":
... But it’s made me wonder: When a subculture identifies deeply with a historical heyday in which women and minorities had little place, does some of that baggage seep into modern iterations, disguised as simple aesthetics?

Once you start reading more deeply into this case, thanks to the crack research of Alana Goodman for the Washington Free Beacon, which broke the story open in 2014, it becomes clear: This case is Hillary Clinton's Chappaquiddick -- the original moral stain, which, as with Ted Kennedy, once exposed, becomes her ultimate undoing.
