An Indictment

An interesting bit of news hit the wire on Wednesday. Via DOJ, one Imaad Zuberi, a 49-year-old resident of Arcadia, California, agreed to plead guilty to a variety of illegal activities surrounding campaign contributions, political influence, and unregistered lobbying on behalf of foreign clients.

Zuberi has agreed to plead guilty to those charges at a later date, pursuant to a plea agreement. This kind of language in a charging situation normally indicates that the felon has agreed to help out with other cases. His sentencing recommendation will depend on how truthful and helpful he is to prosecutors at the DOJ.

Just who was he raising money for? And how much?

Investigating Corruption Is An Impeachable Offense

Pelosi says that any effort by a Republican administration to investigate prior political corruption is an impeachable offense. Speaker Pelosi released a document on Monday with all sorts of lurid headlines like “the Shakedown” and “The Cover Up”. This document would make the National Enquirer proud. The essence of this document is that investigating prior political corruption committed by Democrats is not permitted.

Why? Because Pelosi knows that, even if only a small bit of the pile of dung that was the corrupt efforts of the Democrats during the 2016 election is exposed to sunlight, the Democrats’ chances of being a viable political entity in this country would be destroyed for decades. The Democrats are frantic in their attempts to squash any investigation because they know just how bad the corruption was. This was corruption they expected to get away with since HRC was a shoo-in for the Presidency.

This document essentially says that the legislative b Continue reading...

Deplorables

This is an excellent video if a bit long (26 minutes). It really speaks to the heart of the matter for all concerned on both sides of the Atlantic. It is a well-presented argument for the validity of the US/UK “populist” movement and the tone-deafness of those who oppose it.

Unelected bureaucrats in the EU should not rule of the citizens of each EU country. Did the people of the EU know, when the EU was created, that was the template for governance?

Something to think about. Do the Democrats hate America?

We don’t need to explain this too much but…we’ll do it anyway.

Every week, Democratic lawmakers leap for joy when some tidbit comes out that they think will enable them to finish the coup that they have been trying to execute since PDJT was elected.

First, it was collusion with Russia. Mueller tried to trap PDJT into an obstruction charge. He spent almost two years and millions of dollars to no avail.

Christianity Under Fire

Religious liberty is, perhaps, the most fundamental liberty that all Americans enjoy. However, you wouldn’t know it looking at the Democratic presidential candidates. They appear to embrace the Obama view of religion. That is, you are free to worship on Sunday. However, following God’s Word in the public square is not permitted if it contravenes Democratic talking points and the Party’s view of how people should think. Obama’s vision of religion was very closely in line with Josef Stalin’s.

Chicago’s Francis Cardinal George once wrote:

“Freedom of worship was guaranteed in the Constitution of the former Soviet Union. You could go to church, if you could find one. The church, however, could do nothing except conduct religious rites in places of worship — no schools, religious publications, health care institutions, organized charity, ministry for justice and works of mercy that flow naturally from a living faith. We fought a long Cold War to defeat that vision of society.”

SLAUGHTER IN SYRIA

On Sunday ABC News ran dramatic video footage of a Kurdish town under bombardment by Turkish forces just one week after PDJT announced the withdrawal of some 50 American troops stationed between Turkish Forces and the Kurds who had fought beside us against ISIS. Good Morning America repeated the story on Monday.

First, the disclaimer. The story below is fictional and is known as satire. Unfortunately, due to the fact that gossip can now be the foundation of whistleblower complaints, it portrays a near future that is not outside the realm of being reasonably possible. Enjoy the story!

The Eastbank Little League All Stars visited the White House on Friday to celebrate their Little League World Series Championship. Eastbank was the 1st team in Little League World Series history to lose their first game and come back to win the championship.

At the meeting, Trump asked the team members’ parents if the team could hop on Air Force One for the ride back to Louisiana since Trump was already headed to the state for a campaign rally in Lake Charles.
