North Carolina Passes First Free-Speech Law To Prevent Campus Censorship

Via Billy

North Carolina has become the first state to enact free-speech legislation based on the Goldwater Institute proposal, authored by Stanley Kurtz of National Review and Jim Manley and Jonathan Butcher of Arizona’s Goldwater Institute.

According to Kurtz, much of the credit for the passage of the Restore Campus Free Speech Act belongs to North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Dan Forest, who worked with Kurtz since 2015, when Kurtz offered “A Plan to Restore Free Speech on Campus” at NRO.

The North Carolina Restore Campus Free Speech Act passed 80 to 31 in the House; 10 Democrats; surprisingly, roughly one-quarter of the Democrats in the House voted for the bill. In the state Senate, all 34 GOP members voted for the bill; all 11 Democrats voted against it.

Governor Rory Cooper did not act on the bill, which allowed it to pass. 17 colleges and universities are in the University of North Carolina system,

Did Votes By Noncitizens Cost Trump The 2016 Popular Vote? Sure Looks That Way

Via Billy

Election 2016: Late in 2016, we created a stir by suggesting that Donald Trump was likely right when he claimed that millions of noncitizens had illegally voted in the U.S. election. Now, a study by a New Jersey think tank provides new evidence that that's what happened.

Last November, just weeks after his Electoral College win that gave him the presidency, then President-elect Donald Trump tweeted, "In addition to winning the Electoral College in a landslide, I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally."

The reaction was angry and swift, with the left accusing him of being an "internet troll" and of hatching a "Twitter-born conspiracy theory."

At the time, we noted that a group called True The Vote, an online anti-voter-fraud website, had claimed that illegals had cast three million votes last year. The media and left-wing groups immediately portrayed True The Vote as a fringe group with little credibility.

The only problem is, a study in 2014 in the online Electoral Studies Journal made a quite similar claim: In the 2008 and 2010 elections, they said, as many as 2.8 million illegal noncitizen votes were cast, "enough to change meaningful election outcomes including Electoral College votes and congressional elections," said the study, authored by Jesse T. Richman and Gushan A. Chattha, both of Old Dominion University, and David C. Earnest of George Mason University.

The bombshell was this: "Noncitizen votes likely gave Senate Democrats the pivotal 60th vote needed to overcome filibusters in order to pass health care reform and other Obama administration priorities in the 111th Congress."

Justice Dept. to Take On Affirmative Action by investigating colleges for discriminating against white applicants

Via Billy

The Justice Department’s civil rights division is preparing to look into and possibly sue universities whose affirmative action admissions policies could be deemed discriminatory against white applicants, The New York Times reported Tuesday.

An internal memo, obtained by the Times, advertised for lawyers within the agency who would be interested in a new initiative that includes “investigations and possible litigation related to intentional race-based discrimination in college and university admissions.”

According to the Times report, the memo does not list any specific group of college applicants could be at risk of discrimination. However, the phrasing “intentional race-based discrimination” is geared towards affirmative action programs that aim to recruit more minority students to the student body.

Former Obama Aide Ben Rhodes now a person of interest in unmasking investigation

Via Billy

Former Obama White House National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes is now an emerging as a person of interest in the House Intelligence Committee’s unmasking investigation, according to a letter sent Tuesday by the committee to the National Security Agency (NSA). This adds Rhodes to the growing list of top Obama government officials who may have improperly unmasked Americans in communications intercepted overseas by the NSA, Circa has confirmed.

The House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-CA, sent the letter to the National Security Agency requesting the number of unmaskings made by Rhodes from Jan. 1, 2016 to Jan. 20, 2017, according to congressional sources who spoke with Circa. Rhodes, who worked closely with former National Security Adviser Susan Rice and was a former deputy national security adviser for strategic communications for President Obama, became a focus of the committee during its review of classified information to assess whether laws were broken regarding NSA intercepted
communications of President Trump, members of his administration and other Americans before and after the election, according to congressional officials. The committee is requesting that the NSA deliver the information on Rhodes by August, 21.

Rod Wheeler Explains Fox News Controversy, Claims Seth Rich Brother BLOCKED WikiLeaks Inquiries!

Via Billy

The MSM spent a tireless 24-hours attempting to lead the public away from knowing the truth about the Seth Rich case. NPR led the charge publishing a piece titled “Behind Fox News’ Baseless Seth Rich Story: The Untold Tale”, a piece they will no doubt have to HEAVILY retract and apologize for.

NPR attempts to disprove the story after they had gained access to a lawsuit against Fox News by Rod Wheeler. Wheeler is a former Fox contributor and the D.C. detective hired by Ed Butowsky, at the request of the Rich family, to investigate their son’s murder.

The NRP report alleges that on April 20th, after uncovering disturbing leads in the case, Butowsky and Wheeler met in the White House with Sean Spicer to brief him on what they were uncovering.

Wheeler believed, and expressed to FOX 5, that there is tangible evidence on Rich’s laptop that confirms he was communicating with WikiLeaks prior to his death.

Special Counsel Mueller Hires 16th Left-Wing Lawyer to Investigation — Latest Hack Attorney Worked for Holder-Obama

Via Billy

Special Counsel Robert Mueller added another radical left-wing lawyer to his team as he continues to investigate Trump’s personal finances under the guise of a ‘Russia probe’.

Greg Andres is the 16th lawyer to be added to Mueller’s team. He worked under Eric ‘Fast N’ Furious’ Holder from 2010 to 2012. No bias here though. This is a completely fair investigation as Paul Ryan says.

Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer Exposes HR McMaster: He Has Not Fired Obama and Ben Rhodes White House Staffers

Via Billy

For months conservative investigative reporter Mike Cernovich has been reporting that National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster is with the globalists and not with Trump. Cernovich claims McMaster has been secretly working against President Trump’s ‘America First’ plans.

McMaster ousted Trump Advisor Derek Harvey who tried to fire the Obama holdovers. General Michael Flynn’s people are getting forced out and replaced with establishment zombies. McMaster is keeping the Obama lackeys on board while purging the office of Trump loyalists.

On Tuesday night Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer told Lou Dobbs that this was exactly the case, that McMaster is holding onto Obama lackeys in the White House.

It is unbelievable!

North Korea's submarine fleet is a big threat

Via Billy

On Monday, CNN reported "highly unusual" North Korean submarine activity. Put simply, Kim Jong Un's regime is deploying more submarines in different ways and on longer missions.

This is not too much of a surprise. North Korea has aggressively focused on submarine development and operability for the last five years. What's different now is that the regime is reaching a new level of submarine competence. And that matters for a few reasons.

First, it represents a new era. For a long time, North Korea's submarine fleet has relied on archaic Russian vessels from the early Cold War era. Those ships are now four generations out of date and easily detectable by even the most basic anti-submarine sensors.

In recent years, however, North Korea has embraced self-made submarines. These ships are far-inferior to their U.S., South Korean, or Japanese counterparts, but they have been mass produced. As such, the North Koreans might be able to overwhelm individual allied vessels by their sheer numbers. Consider that Kim Jong Un already has around 70-90 submarines. As he builds and deploys more, he will strain allied monitoring efforts.

Kelly already bringing order to the White House

Via Billy

In less than one day, Gen. John Kelly put everyone on notice that he means business.

From the moment it was announced that Reince Priebus was out as chief of staff and he would be replaced by General Kelly, there was speculation that Kelly would overhaul the configuration of the White House. It is clear after day one that will be the case.

Kelly, a retired four-star general, was thought to be a choice that would restore much-needed discipline to the West Wing. With the firing of communications director Anthony Scaramucci on day one, we now know this is at the top of Kelly's agenda.
