Donald Trump

I WAS INTERVIEWED ON JOHN FRIEND'S REALIST REPORT on Thursday, March 30 for almost two hours. We had a fun time exploring the usual issues (holocaust, hitler and the jews), plus Donald Trump's presidency. We found a lot of common ground. 

John is a great guy, easy to talk with, and very committed to defending truth in history wherever it takes him. He deserves your support.

President Donald Trump welcomes Rex Tillerson to his administration after Tillerson's swearing in as Secretary of State. Now the Department is facing budget cuts that are instigating a controversy with Jews.

This Special Office was originally opposed by the State Department, but George W. Bush thought it would help him carry Florida in 2004.

AS PROMISED, A BIPARTISAN GROUP OF 167 MEMBERS OF CONGRESS [out of 435 – less than half] have signed a letter to President Donald Trump asking him to keep intact the State Department’s Office of Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism. As I posted on February 27, President Trump plans to cut billions of dollars from the State Department budget and this particular office is on the cutting board.

Rightly so, I would say.

But Jews and their allies in Congress are pushing to keep the 2004 legislation in place. The letter begins: “As Members of Congress who care deeply about anti-Semitism at home and abroad, we urge you to maintain and prioritize the appointment of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism.” The initiative was spearheaded by Jewish Representative Eliot Engel (D-NY) who also happens to be chairman of the World Jewish Congress International Council of Jewish Parliamentarians.

Of the five co-sponsors, three are also Jewish (Nita Lowey D-NY, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen R-FL, Ted Deutch D-FL), one is Black (Marc Veasey D-TX) and one is White Catholic who had been a sponsor in 2004 (Christopher H. Smith (R-NJ).

This neatly written phrase was spray-painted on a synagogue outer garden wall in Seattle's upscale Capitol Hill neighborhood Thursday night. It's being treated as a hate crime and blamed, by extension, on President Trump, but where is the hate?

A REPORT AT THE HILL headlined it “anti-Semitic vandalism” and repeated that it is an “anti-Semitic act.”

The Seattle Times used the words “toxic expression” and “anti-Semitic, Holocaust-denying graffiti.” It may be holocaust-denying, but it is not anti-Semitic. The two are not the same.

Rabbi Daniel Weiner of Temple De Hirsch Sinai must be rubbing his hands with glee. A neighbor, thinking s/he was doing a good deed, covered the graffiti with a sheet on which was written “Love Wins”, but the rabbi took the sheet down.

“It was a very sweet gesture and touching, but we took it down … I think it’s extremely important that people see this.”

Investigation carried out at Jewish Community Center in Southern Nevada. It's now reported that President Trump told some state attorneys-general in a meeting yesterday that "it's possible" these incidents could be false flags. Wow, go Trump!!

FUNNY HOW THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS EVERYWHERE playing up the “latest wave of anti-Semitism.” I'm seeing it wherever I look, from liberal to conservative news sites - the stories get big play. Could it be because of the continuing success of populist themes and populist politicians?

I think so.

Today I was interested in a speech given by Hungary's Prime Minister Victor Orban before the Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Budapest. He won headlines by saying "ethnic homogeneity" was key in fostering economic success and that "too much mixing causes trouble."

PRESIDENT TRUMP INSTRUCTED FEDERAL AGENCIES MONDAY TO ASSEMBLE A BUDGET for the coming fiscal year that includes a 9% increase in Defense Department spending, with drastic enough cuts to wasteful spending elsewhere in the government to compensate. He intends to leave Social Security and Medicare alone.

Trump is reported to want a budget with tens of billions of dollars in reductions to the Environmental Protection Agency and the State Department (largely in foreign aid), as well as a few other domestic agencies here and there.

One area he can easily save money is the unnecessary position of Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism, which was only established within the State Dept. in 2004 and accomplishes absolutely nothing for the United States of America. It is a plum thrown to Jews, just as is the U.S. Holocaust Museum, but a heck of a lot more expensive than the museum.

NO RELIEF IN SIGHT FOR BJÖRN HÖCKE from the globalist “progressives” in Germany. The German press is also out to take down Donald Trump – much bigger game and much more difficult.

On Saturday, Thomas Oppermann, chairman of the Social Democrats (SPD) in Germany's parliament, doubled down against Thuringia's state Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) leader with the words, “For me, Björn Höcke is a Nazi.”

As reported in Deutsch Welle, Oppermann said, “Someone who wants to resuscitate the ethnic ideology of the National Socialists has no place in a democratic society.” He also said Germany could never again tolerate discrimination based on gender, religion, national origin (ethnicity) or heritage (race).

OVER 3 MONTHS AGO, ON OCT. 4, 2016, I made this post about Donald Trump, who was not yet elected, as being most comparable to the 7th US president, Andrew Jackson. I had not seen anyone else make that comparison, but it occurred to me in a strong way and I followed my inspiration. I was certainly prescient since now, only one week after Trump's inaugaration, everyone and his brother is comparing our 45th president to Andrew Jackson.

Donald Trump is our Andrew Jackson

FORGET RONALD REAGAN. TRUMP IS BIGGER AND BOLDER in his views and potential as a change-maker than our 40th president ever was. If elected, Trump will be equal to no less than our 7th president, the great Andrew Jackson.

IF WE DON'T HAVE TO WATCH WHAT WE SAY about our new president-elect, who was just selected by 63,000,000 Americans in a national election, why should we have to watch what we say about a single congressman who represents only 170,000 who voted for him, uncontested, in one district of the state of Georgia. The 5th congressional district John Lewis is elected from is 60% African-American, assuring him of re-election every time (because Blacks overwhelmingly vote for their own race).

I live in Texas. I don't give a fig about John Lewis in Georgia or what he thinks. I am White, so I also don't give a fig about all the drama he helped create back in the 1960's in Selma, Alabama. And, yes, I was aware of it at the time. Lewis was head of the communist "Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee" (SNCC - pronounced "Snick"). From my point of view, John Lewis did damage to the country I live in, and to my way of life. I don't have to respect him just because the elite media decided to adopt the civil rights movement as a sacred chapter in U.S. history and to protectively surround all involved with political correctness.

President-elect Trump points to a reporter at his first post-election press conference today, during which he glibly singled out Nazi Germany as a purveyor of fake news.

IT HAD TO HAPPEN. Donald Trump has done well to refrain from mentioning the so-called 'holocaust' or Adolf Hitler in any of his public pronouncements. But today he compared the publication of a nasty leaked "intelligence" document about himself that he is calling fake news to how news was handled in Nazi Germany. In doing so, he has kow-towed to political correctness, or revealed a very ignorant streak in his own knowledge of history, or both.

In an early morning tweet in response to the report's publication by Buzzfeed (online) and coverage of the document by CNN, Trump wrote

Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to "leak" into the public. One last shot at me. Are we living in Nazi Germany?
