NC: SC National Guard Drills Door-to-Door ''Wellness Checks''

Via LH



In yet another example of the growing trend of the process of acclimatization of the general public to an open military presence on American streets as well as greater cooperation between the US Military and civilian law enforcement, South Carolina was recently the scene of a statewide “emergency preparedness” drill that incorporated both of these aspects in a visible form.

On March 7, 2015, the state-wide drill, entitled Operation Vigilant Guard, took place under the pretext of preparation for the inevitable destruction a hurricane would bring to South Carolina. According to reports in the local media, the drills were based on the premise of the landfall of a Category 4 hurricane and “how they’d respond to get citizens help” in such an event.

The training involved the South Carolina National Guard as well as National Guard units from Georgia in addition to participants from local and state law enforcement agencies as well as local and state “officials.”

STUDY: Assessing Emerging Policy Threats to the U.S. Power Grid

Executive Summary

Abstract

Reliable, affordable electricity is critical to our well-being and essential to modern life. But today, threats to the reliability of the power grid are numerous: cyber-attacks, weather, and accidents. Fortunately, the most significant threat is also the most avoidable—bad policy. Federal and state policies are already increasing electricity bills around the country, and the worst effects are yet to come. The federal government, and particularly the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, is promulgating regulations that will reduce the reliability of the power grid with little thought of the consequences. In fact, these policies threaten to take offline 130 gigawatts of reliable electricity generation sources—enough to meet the electricity needs of more than 105 million Americans, or one-third of the population of the entire United States. Reforming policies that threaten grid reliability should be a top priority for policymakers.

The extreme far-left fundraising hustle and radical left-wing websites are denouncing a privately funded Southern Heritage billboard. The billboard is located outside Selma, AL on a major road.

The billboard was apparently paid for by Patricia Goodwin, who has long organized Southern Heritage events. The far-left website RawStory.com is falsely attributing the billboard to the Ku Klux Klan.

The SPLC is denouncing the billboard. This is the same organization that “DC Terrorist” Floyd Corkins credited as inspiring him to carry out an attempted mass murder on the American Research Council. He shot and wounded one person before being subdued. A spokesman for the SPLC had compared the American Research Council to the Ku Klux Klan on national television.

Selma: The government would intervene to stop people from relocating their businesses.

He went on to describe a plan in which the government would intervene to stop people from relocating their businesses. "It's the only way," Jackson said.

It's a black city. As the Washington Post notes about 80 percent black Selma in 2015, a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a re-opening Sonic restaurant is cause for celebration in a city where the Visible Black Hand of Economic has otherwise chased away commercial interests:

...a ribbon-cutting at the local Sonic drive-up restaurant. In the past few months, Selma has lost two of its biggest department stores: J.C. Penney and Goody’s. The restaurant event offered a rare bit of good economic news. 
“Technically it’s more of a reopening than an opening,” KimbroughBallard said. “The place looked terrible. Thank God Sonic saw fit to invest thousands of dollars in it instead of picking up and leaving.” The restaurant was festooned with balloons and a big red ribbon. 
Today, almost all the top elected officials in Selma and surrounding Dallas County are black. Ballard, who is white, stood next to Mayor George Evans, who was elected in 2008 as the second black mayor in Selma’s history. Also in the ribbon-cutting line was Benny Lee Tucker, a City Council member and one of the heroes of the Bloody Sunday march. The mayor snipped the ribbon, and a Sonic regional marketing executive handed out raspberry and lime sodas.

The Muslim Brotherhood in America: Jihad by Deception and Infiltration: Part 1 of a series

Mike Scruggs

https://goldandguns.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/image-1873.png

The Muslim Brotherhood is the most powerful Muslim political organization in the world. Its motto is “Allah is our objective; the Prophet is our leader; the Koran is our law; Jihad is our way; dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.” They belong to the Sunni branch of Islam, competing for world dominance with the numerically smaller Shia branch led by Iran. The Brotherhood’s modern operating philosophy is often called “Civilization Jihad” or stealth Jihad. They typically work by deception and subversion until they are strong enough to take power and enforce their dominance by the sword. Hamas and Islamic Jihad are two of their terrorist branches. They have also had considerable influence over al-Qaeda, which is essentially a spinoff of Hamas. Oil money, especially from Saudi Arabia and Qatar, has been one of their most powerful resources for propagandizing, bribing, and corrupting political, civil, education, banking, and church leaders.

Recently, Saudi Arabia has become wary of the Brotherhood, perceiving them as a threat to the Saudi monarchy. The Sunni Saudis have also become extremely wary of Shiite Iran and Sunni ISIS. Saudi Arabia is the world’s largest exporter of oil. On January 23, King Salman, 79, acceded to the Saudi throne on the death of his half brother, Abdullah, who died at the age of 90. Salman was recently Defense Minister and Abdullah’s chief government deputy. He has extensive government experience and is considered a stabilizing force. His half brother Muqrin, 69, also having considerable government experience, was named heir apparent and chief deputy. Neither Salman nor Muqrin believe democracy should be imposed upon Saudi Arabia.

One of the most disturbing things about Muslim Brotherhood infiltration and increased influence in the United States is the degree to which it was accelerated by both the Clinton and G. W. Bush administrations. However, under President Obama it has escalated to unbelievable proportions, especially in the Department of Homeland Security and national intelligence and immigration agencies. Influence over banking and educational institutions and Department of Defense policies has also increased dramatically. A later article will examine how Hillary Clinton advanced the cause of the Muslim Brotherhood as President Obama’s Secretary of State. 

Overthrow of Western governments by increased immigration, especially Muslim immigration, is an important strategic tool in the “Civilization Jihad” war plan of the Muslim Brotherhood.

In 1979, Abdurahman Alamoudi immigrated to the United States from Eritrea, a small nation on the Red Sea, just north of Ethiopia. Eleven years later, he founded the American Muslim Council (AMC) with the help of the Muslim Brotherhood. He became a U.S. citizen in 1996.  His involvement with nearly two-dozen other Muslim organizations in the U.S and Saudi financial resources soon thrust him into prominence as an influential spokesman for Muslim-Americans

This was his entry into the Clinton administration. In 1995, he helped President Clinton and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) develop federal guidelines for “Religious Expression in Public Schools.”  During 1995 and 1996. Alamoudi and 23 other Muslim leaders met with President Clinton and Vice President Gore on several occasions. This led to Alamoudi taking the lead role in establishing a Muslim Chaplain Program for the Department of Defense. Subsequently, he became the final certifying authority for Muslim chaplains serving in the U.S. Armed Services. He retained this influential position until 1998. One of his appointed Chaplains, James Yee, was arrested in 2003 for supporting the jihadists imprisoned at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Alamoudi’s influence did not stop with the Clinton administration. In 1998, he provided $20,000 to help Republican Grover Norquist, the founder of Americans for Tax Reform,establish the Islamic Free Market Institute (better known as the Islamic Institute or II). Norquist served as chairman of the board, while Alamoudi’s chief deputy, Khaled Suffuri was made its executive director. The Islamic Institute thereafter quickly became a Muslim Brotherhood front organization. Despite Norquist’s early reputation as a conservative, he has since distinguished himself as an advocate of amnesty for 12 million illegal immigrants and increased legal immigration for Muslims. 

As a further result of Alamoudi’s connections to Muslim-Americans and his connections with the Islamic Free Market Institute, he and several other Muslim Brotherhood operatives were invited to meet with then Texas Governor George W. Bush in the governor’s mansion. Suffuri was designated as Bush’s Coordinator for Muslim outreach for the Bush presidential campaign of 2000.

Following the election, Suhail Khan, a member of the Islamic Institute’s board of directors—with many Muslim Brotherhood connections—was made the gatekeeper for the Muslim community and the White House Office of Public Liaison. This put the Muslim Brotherhood in a position of considerable influence in shaping the Bush Administration’s understanding of  the nature of Islam and U.S. defense and foreign policy following the 9/11 attacks on New York and the Pentagon in Washington. Despite Bush’s generally tough-minded positions on national security issues, he became a tragically misinformed, veritable cheerleader for Islam as a “religion of peace and tolerance.” Bush also ignored the immense and highly probable fiscal, economic, cultural, political, and national security consequences of massive amnesty. 

In October 2000 however, Alamoudi was filmed at an anti-Israel rally where his support for the terrorist organizations Hamas and Hezbollah was recorded.  In 2003, Alamoudi was arrested at the Heathrow Airport near London, carrying $340,000 given to him by Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi for the assassination of Crown Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and jihad against the United States. Further investigation after his extradition to the United States revealed that he was a senior financier of al-Qaeda. He is now serving a 23-year prison sentence.

Following Alamoudi’s sentencing, responsibility for Muslim Chaplain selection and training was transferred to the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA)—the largest Muslim Brotherhood front in the United States. The Obama Administration now suppresses the free speech of Christian military chaplains and promotes the dangerously deceptive left-liberal dogma that Islam is a religion of “peace and tolerance.” This left-liberal dogma is considerably at odds with the actual teachings of the Koran and Muhammad.

The bleeding edge of America's race war

Via David

http://defund.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/feud.jpg


As a former prison chaplain, I've long argued that the real racial problem in America isn't white-versus-black or vice versa:  it's Black-versus-Hispanic or Hispanic-versus-Black. Now an article in Taki's Magazine begins to tell it like it is.
I can only guess that the reason you don’t hear much about black-versus-Hispanic violence in America is that you’re not supposed to hear much about it. It’s the sort of thing that swims upstream against the dominant narrative with the tenacity of a thuggish, heavily tattooed salmon. In the nation’s fevered movie dreams about racial violence, it’s white people (and only white people) who go about thrashing nonwhites (and only nonwhites). 
But in cities across the country—most notably, Los Angeles—one group of nonwhites is engaged in a prolonged, grinding, violent turf war with another group of nonwhites—and that’s something which is clearly NOT in the script. So it’s best for the crafty screenwriters to convince the dimwitted moviegoers that it’s not happening; failing that, they’ll squirm for a way to blame white people, anyway.

Los Federales Crack Down On Chinese Birthing Houses

 http://content-img.newsinc.com/jpg/1460/28679243/19773690.jpg?t=1425420480

Airfare from the U.S. to China and a months-long stay in an Orange County, Calif., apartment:
$80,000. A baby born a U.S. citizen: priceless.

In the largest operation of its kind, early Tuesday morning federal officials in Southern California served warrants at “Chinese birthing houses” or “maternity hotels,” where wealthy Chinese nationals paid up to $80,000 for the sole purpose of giving birth in the U.S. to obtain citizenship for their children, earning in-state tuition to U.S. universities for them and permanent U.S. residency for the parents.

“It is essentially citizenship for sale,” said Center for Immigration Studies analyst Jessica Vaughan. “Something U.S. citizens hold very dear and cherish is essentially being purchased by people for their own economic self-interests or potentially more nefarious purposes.”

Holder Frames Ferguson PD For Racism Using Bogus 'Disparate Impact' Stats

http://moralmatters.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/RacistsObamaJacksonHolderSharpton.jpg

Racial Politics: Unable to pin racism charges on Ferguson policeman Darren Wilson in the shooting death of Michael Brown, Attorney General Eric Holder is using half-baked data to manufacture a case of racism against his entire police force.

Holder's race-baiting civil rights crew combed through several years of Ferguson Police Department data on traffic stops, searches and arrests and "found a pattern of racial disparities in Ferguson's police activities."

"African Americans are overrepresented in FPD's vehicular stops" and victims of "racial bias," Holder concludes in his report.

He notes that blacks accounted for 85% of vehicle stops, "despite comprising only 67% of Ferguson's population," while whites made up 15% of stops, despite representing 29% of the population.
So there you have it, a slam-dunk case of racism, right? Hardly.

Hillary Rodham Clinton’s brother, Tony Rodham, sat on the board of a self-described mining company that in 2012 received one of only two “gold exploitation permits” from the Haitian government—the first issued in over 50 years.

The tiny North Carolina company, VCS Mining, also included on its board Bill Clinton’s co-chair of the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission (IHRC), former Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive.

So on my way home, I stopped at the Post Office in a very small town to check the P.O. Box.  I stop about twice a week to check on it.

As is Federal Law, I disarm, leaving my carry gun locked in the car (or truck). I believe the requirement that I disarm to get my mail is illegal and unconstitutional, but the courts disagree, so I follow the law.

As I am coming into the Post Office, my holster empty (and coat pulled over it) , I encounter the Chief of Police of that small town. He is in civilian clothes and I realized that the car I had parked next to in the lot was his personal car. I smile and raise my hand in greeting.

He looks at me and says "Hi", and then waits while I fish out my key and open the mailbox. I retrieve my mail and then turn to see what he wants...

Now this Cop is, actually, generally a decent sort. He does his job, seldom has an attitude, and is a decent guy most of the time... I have interacted with him several times over the years. His officers use our range twice a year to practice and before their certification testing (which is another good story for another time). He knows I carry, and have a permit.

"Got a question for ya, B" he says. "Do you carry here in the Post Office?"

At something called the Harvard Gazette, apparently a literary asylum for ed-majors, sociologists, and the mildly brain-damaged, the female inmates are riled because there are not enough girls in computer science. Yes, discrimination. Their eyes agleam with the dull light of incomprehension, they moo, “When you make computer science about creative problem-solving, when you make it social, when it’s not scary and intimidating, and when you show people who look like real human beings rather than people who’ve been stuck in a basement …more girls will be attracted to it.”

Oh god, oh god, oh god. We’re going backwards. I told you Darwin was wrong. Gerbils to the right, gerbils to the left, and not a thought to think.

Flashback: In 2007 speech, Obama credited 1965 Selma march for inspiring his birth — in 1961

 Today is the seventh anniversary of Barack Obama’s 2007 speech from the civil rights scene of Selma, Alabama. Many conservatives remember Hillary Clinton’s patronizing black-speak “I don't feel no ways tired” recitation from black minister James Cleveland.

 But Obama’s Selma speech shamelessly invented his life story, and the media failed to call him on it. It was an early signal that honesty and accuracy were not high on the media’s list of values in that campaign.

 In his book Barack Obama: The Story, Washington Post reporter-editor David Maraniss reported that Obama’s account of being separated from his father when he was two was “received myth, not the truth.” Maraniss explained Obama’s father was “married in name only. Within a month of the day Barry came home from the hospital, he and his mother were long gone from Honolulu,” as Ann Dunham returned to the mainland to attend the University of Washington.
