Why Do Southerners Continue to Finance the Destruction of Their Children and Culture?

Via Billy

It never ceases to amaze me how people can continue to feed their progeny into those Marxist meatgrinders  we refer to as public schools and “institutions of higher learning” and then wonder why their kids come home spouting the lessons they have learned about Marx or Mao or Che and how wonderful the society they have planned for us will be.

People spend literally millions every year paying through the nose for “educations” for their children when, in most cases, all these “educations” are really all about is the planned destruction of their culture and faith. That may sound harsh to some, but having worked around and at colleges, I can attest to what those institutions do to kids’ faith and culture. While I am not indicting every teacher or professor  (there are some honest ones, though not nearly enough) I do indict the systems they work for that claim to be about “education” but are really about student indoctrination.

Homeland Security Officials Took Millions in Bribes to 'Look the Other Way' on Drug Cartels

Via Mike

A stunning case of corruption inside the Department of Homeland Security was overshadowed by
headlines about Russia and Israel this past week. Yet, federal employees accepting millions of dollars in bribes to avoid doing their job, is certainly worth a look.

Hundreds of DHS employees have "looked the other way" as drugs crossed the border because cartels have made them offers they can't refuse. Other employees have sold green cards and other documents illegally. More from The New York Times:

U.S. Republican senator introduces Obamacare repeal resolution

Via Billy

Republican U.S. Senator Mike Enzi introduced on Tuesday a resolution allowing for the repeal of President Barack Obama's signature health insurance program, which provides coverage to millions of Americans, Enzi's office said in a statement.

The move by the Senate's budget committee chairman on the first day of the new Congress set in motion the Republican majority's promise to repeal the 2010 Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, as its first major legislative item.

Republicans have said the repeal process could take months and that developing replacement health insurance plans could take years.

Trump Tells DHS To Prepare For Border Wall Construction

Via Billy

A memo from the Department of Homeland Security, which was recently reviewed by Reuters, suggest that the Trump administration plans to hit the ground running on the construction of that U.S.-Mexico border wall when they move into the White House later this month.  The memo apparently summarized a meeting held between DHS officials and Trump's transition team on December 5th in which requests were made for an assessment of "all assets available for border wall and barrier construction."

In a wide-ranging request for documents and analysis, President-elect Donald Trump's transition team asked the Department of Homeland Security last month to assess all assets available for border wall and barrier construction.

The requests were made in a Dec. 5 meeting between Trump's transition team and Department of Homeland Security officials, according to an internal agency memo reviewed by Reuters. The document offers a glimpse into the president-elect's strategy for securing the U.S. borders and reversing polices put in place by the Obama administration.

Good News: Washington Frozen Out of Syria Peace Plan

Via comment by Unknown Reaper on Treasons Great and Small

 

As the US mainstream media obsessed last week about Russia's supposed “hacking” of the US elections and President Obama’s final round of Russia sanctions in response, something very important was taking place under the media radar. As a result of a meeting between foreign ministers of Russia, Iran, and Turkey last month, a ceasefire in Syria has been worked out and is being implemented. So far it appears to be holding, and after nearly six years of horrible warfare the people of Syria are finally facing the possibility of rebuilding their lives.

What is so important about this particular ceasefire? It was planned, agreed to, and implemented without the participation of the United States Government.

In fact it was frustration with Washington’s refusal to separate its “moderates” from terrorist groups and its continued insistence on regime change for the Syrian government that led the three countries to pursue a solution on their own for Syria. They also included the Syrian government and much of the opposition in the agreement, which the US government has been unwilling to do.

Oblivious Obama pens farewell as world burns down around him

 

Bearing his trademark humility and modest historical self-regard, President Obama this week announced that he will, indeed, follow the lead of George Washington and allow “for a peaceful, democratic transfer of power.”

What a guy!

And just in case anybody has failed to grasp how extraordinarily lucky we have been these past eight delightful years, Mr. Obama also announced that he has begun “penning a farewell address to the American people.”

Lord, help us. We don’t deserve this!

It is not enough that we have endured eight long years of arrogance, preaching and failure? Now we have to stand by to watch him revel in it?

Sessions' opponents are badly misinformed

Via Billy

In the 1970s and 1980s, I represented the Board of School Commissioners of Mobile County, and, in that capacity, I was on the other side of Jeff Sessions when he was the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama and the U.S. Government was a party in Brown v. Moore, the case that led to the creation of single-member election districts for members of the board of the county school system.

Senator Sessions was part of the government team that argued that multi-member election districts disadvantaged African Americans. Ultimately, Judge Virgil Pittman ruled in favor of the federal government and the plaintiffs in Brown.

Some of the Senator's opponents have alleged that Sessions, when he was U.S. Attorney, failed to protect the rights and privileges for board member Dr. R. W. Gilliard, one of the two African Americans elected from single-member districts in 1978. Specifically, they allege that Dan Alexander, then President of the school board, had prevented Dr. Gilliard from voting on certain matters, and Sessions did not stand with Dr. Gilliard in contesting the actions of Alexander.
