A routine municipal ceremony has become seeped in controversy after a Brooklyn Civil Court judge was sworn in using a Koran. Carolyn Walker-Diallo, who was elected last month in Brooklyn’s 7th Municipal District, took her oath of office Thursday using the holy book of Islam as a testament to her Muslim faith. The swearing-in session went off without a hitch, but after attendees posted video of the ceremony to social media, the backlash became so severe that some of Walker-Diallo’s supporters became concerned for her safety. “Sickening,” one Facebook user posted in response to the video. “Is this America or the Middle East.” “Another piece of s— Muslim,” another user wrote, “trying to take over this country.” Walker-Diallo did not return calls for comment.
It’s hard to tell if Loretta Lynch is a step down from EricHolder or an improvement.
Holder was doggedly determined to wear awayas much of the constitution as he possibly he could.
Loretta Lynch looked like she was going to as well.
So here’s what happened which makes it appear Lynch might actually be a softer (and slightly better) than Holder.
Shortly after the terrorist attacks in San Bernardino it was determined the perpetrators in the attack were devout Muslims. Understandably Americans all across the nation were incensed that people who were following an “ISIS playbook” had committed this horrible act on American soil.
Especially considering it was only a few days after the Paris attacks that Obama assured the entire world ISIS was “under control.”
People everywhere sounded off on the dangers of ISIS and radical Islam…and they’re not without warrant as it’s a legitimate concern. But Lynch made it seem like her Department of Justice wasn’t going to tolerate those kinds of actions and would prosecute anyone who spoke out against Islam.
Speaking to a Muslim Advocates dinner in Arlington, Va., Lynch affirmed that “this is a country that is based upon free speech.” However, she went on to suggest that the Justice Department would “take action” when such speech “edges towards violence, when we see the potential to lift…that mantle of anti-Muslim rhetoric.”
A mural depicting Freddie Gray and the protests following his fatal injury in the custody of Baltimore police, at North Mount Street in the Sandtown-Winchester…The general statistical profile of the West Baltimore community where Freddie Grey grew up is something most people think they know, even if the details are not committed to memory.
Here is the truth: The abbreviated and not at all easy life of Freddie Gray was, to some extent, shaped by Gray's choices. He was an American and an adult with at least some of the attendant free will that people assume comes with either status.
But it is also a life altered and quite likely distorted by the net effects of where and how the wealthy country into which he was born and its voters have decided to distribute its resources. Freddie Gray was an American failed more often by his country than served by it. And yet again this week, after a mistrial was declared in the first of six cases against police officers in whose custody Gray died, only the details of his death have become the subject of any real and sustained public discussion.READ MORE
Assault Weapons Ban Introduced By Democrat Who Doesn’t Know What A Semi-Automatic Rifle Is downtrend.com
Democrats don’t know very much about firearms and they certainly don’t give a shit about the Constitution. 90 House democrats who have no idea how a semi-automatic rifle works co-sponsored an assault weapons ban on Wednesday. The bill which is certain to die in the Republican controlled Congress looks to revive the Clinton-era AWB.
Introduced by Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.), The Assault Weapons Ban of 2015 would halt the manufacture and sale of whatever he thinks is an assault weapon. All existing “assault weapons” could be sold, but under an expanded background check system. The millions of guns currently in private hand would be grandfathered in, but could never be transferred again.
Policies aimed at combating “white privilege” have left teachers scared, parents outraged and classroom behavior that has gone from bad to downright dangerous. In the St. Paul, Minn., public schools, the new disciplinary policy was developed to combat what liberal administrators thought was an environment that unfairly penalized black students – so they went the other direction.
Now students with severe discipline problems receive little or nothing in the way of punishment, the St. Paul Pioneer Press is reporting. Violent or unruly students are only given short “time outs” to calm down then returned to classrooms. There has been a dramatic drop in out-of-school suspensions and expulsions, especially among black students who in the past received the lions share of punishments. The new policies were developed by the Pacific Education Group (PEG) and supported by a new superintendent, Valeria Silva, whose contract was just renewed at $213,000 per year. PEG is convinced that schools in America are rampant with “white privilege” that negatively affects black students. To remediate this, they encourage lax punishment of disruptive behavior.

White Cop Hit With 6 Separate 1st Degree Murder Charges For Shooting 1 Armed Black TeenBrian Anderson
Last year 17-year old black teen Laquan McDonald was high on PCP, vandalizing cars, and running through the streets of Chicago with a knife. White officer Jason Van Dyke shot and killed McDonald when he ignored commands to drop the weapon and came at the policeman. In an effort to placate the angry black hordes, the state’s attorney initially over-charged the officer with 1st degree murder, but now that has been upped to 5 addition charges of murder. Yes, that is correct. This officer now faces 6 separate charges of 1st degree murder for shooting 1 drug addicted and armed attacker.
This is no bullshit. There are apparently at least 6 different kinds of 1st degree murder in Illinois and in the over-charging of the century, prosecutors are using them all on Officer Van Dyke for a single justified killing.
Former Sons of Guns reality television show star Glenn Fleming was recently threatened with murder by yet another “peaceful” gun control supporter.
You’ll note that like most gun control supporters, Lazaroff is wrong on the facts as well as being prone to violence. There have not been 355 mass shootings this year. There have been four.
Largest Gitmo Transfer Since 2007 UnderwayMatt Vespa | Dec 17, 2015
President Obama said he’s gunning to close the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, and he’s starting by emptying the cell blocks that have housed suspected terrorists since it opened in 2002. Right now, the administration is on the verge of the largest detainee transfer in a single month since 2007 (via NYT):
Defense Secretary Ashton B. Carter has notified Congress in recent days that he has approved 17 proposed transfers of lower-level detainees, said the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss matters that have not yet been made public. Congress has required Mr. Carter to certify that security standards have been met at least 30 days before any transfers.
President Obama wants to close the Guantánamo prison in Cuba before he leaves office in a little over a year. His administration has stepped up efforts to find countries to take 48 detainees on a transfer list and moved to speed up the work of a parole-like board that might approve the release of others who are currently recommended for indefinite detention.
Moreover, it doesn’t help the Obama administration’s case that a former detainee is now the leader of al-Qaeda in Yemen, along with 20-30 detainees, some of whom were released as little as three years ago, joiningthe Islamic State.
After Vladimir Putin described Donald Trump as "an absolute leader, " Trump responded that he was honored. "It is always a great honor to be so nicely complimented by a man so highly respected within his own country and beyond," the real estate mogul and former TV reality star said in a statement. "I have always felt that Russia and the United States should be able to work well with each other towards defeating terrorism and restoring world peace, not to mention trade and all of the other benefits derived from mutual respect." Trump's response was a far cry from the stance of another Republican candidate, former business executive Carly Fiorina. During Tuesday night's presidential debate, she said she would not even speak to Putin if elected in November 2016 until executing a series of military changes
Putin Praises Trump As 'Absolute Leader'
President Vladimir Putin hailed Donald Trump as the "absolute leader" in the U.S. presidential contest, praising the candidate's talk about building a deeper relationship with Russia. The Republican candidate is "a very colorful character and talented," Putin said after concluding his three-hour annual press conference in Moscow. "He's the absolute leader in the presidential race," Putin said Thursday, in remarks first reported by the Interfax news service. "He's said that he wants to move to a new level of ties, closer and deeper ties with Russia. How couldn't we welcome that? Of course we welcome it."

Terrific: Feds Have No Clue If 9500 People With Revoked Visas and Links to Terrorism Are in U.S.Katie Pavlich | Dec 18, 2015
In case you missed it yesterday, the House Oversight Committee held a hearing about the vetting process for refugees entering the United States from terrorism hot spots.
During the hearing, officials from the State Department and Homeland Security were asked about the location of 9,500 individuals who have been stripped of their U.S. visas because of links to terrorism. They had no idea and could not say if these individuals were still in the U.S.
So we may be getting closer to the bottom of that UPS charter that unloaded 30 bus loads of people at night at the Harrisburg, PennRegional airport. This was broadcast as Minute Memo #201. Our fearless commenters provided some great information. It turns out that UPS has converted a few planes for passengers as charters. There are several articles on this if you do a search on it. Ed said that he heard an interview with a commercial pilot last year who: “…refused to sign a non-disclosure agreement that allowed him to break FAA regulations but lost his job in his refusal. He was to fly [refugees] in from some middle east country into JFK in the middle of the night bypassing security. A person named only “Please Stay Tuned” alerted me that this: “Could be the Pennsylvania Refugee Resettlement Program. Seems to be a very quiet gov funded org.” Well, as it turns out, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie revealed last week on Fox that the Obama administration has been bringing in refugees by plane for quite a while. [insert Christie] But will these refugees ever make TV news. No way! Middle of the night, landing at rotating small regional airports, they quickly jump on common charter buses. TV cameras will never be there. And just look at the numbers. Everyone is getting all excited about Obama saying he would bring in 10,000 refugees from Syria. In the first 5 years of the Obama presidency, the U.S. gave out green cards to over 680,000 immigrants from predominantly Muslim countries. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, in recent years, 100,000 new Muslim immigrants are brought into the United States each year, and it’s growing at a rate of about 10% per year. So this battle in the press about whether or not to reject the president’s plan to bring in 10,000 more is nothing but a distraction. The truth is that in the last 5 years, we have admitted more Muslims into the U.S. already than the entire Muslim population of Belgium – and that entire country is on lockdown from the Friday the 13th terrorist event in adjoining France. I’m Still reporting from Washington.
A Louisiana-based photographer is facing backlash after she photographed a family for a holiday picture in a way that critics say is sexist.
The photo, taken by Hannah Hawkes Photography, quickly went viral. It shows a family of five posed together between what appears to be Christmas trees.
The mother and her two daughters are bound by Christmas lights and have their mouths taped shut with neon green duct tape.
Their father kneels behind the girls and their mother with a sign that reads “Peace on earth” as a little boy stands next to him, giving the camera a thumbs up.
"If there's a choice to be made, liberty needs to win." What does liberty have to do with allowing people to immigrate to the United States? It is not a right. We should be very particular as to who we allow to enter the country and who we allow to stay. This has been true for a long time. “In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
Police Officer Patrick Feaster drew his gun and immediately pressed off a shot as a clearly unarmed Andrew Thomas attempted to climb out of his overturned vehicle. Feaster didn’t report the shooting for 11 minutes, but will not face any charges.
Most of the “Oh my God, cops shot a guy they shouldn’t have!” outrage we come across tends to come from the family of a violent criminal lying about the circumstances of a case. In most instances the outrage quickly peters out once the suspect turns out to have been an armed threat whom the officer or officers were justified in shooting… sometimes a lot. This is not one of those cases.
Dash cam footage from the November 25 incident shows the driver, 26-year-old Andrew Thomas, crashing his SUV. His wife was ejected from the window and died at the scene, reports CBSN’s Vladimir Duthiers. Feaster walks towards the car and fires one shot, hitting Thomas in the neck as he attempted to get out through the window. Twenty-five seconds, later Feaster describes Thomas as being uncooperative.
Hillary Clinton's Debate Commentary: Muslims Have Nothing To Do With Terrorism Christine Rousselle | Dec 15, 2015
Hillary Clinton chimed in with some interesting commentary during the CNN/Salem Republican debate: While the text of Clinton's tweet is true--we're not at war with Islam--the text part is demonstrably false. Muslims have quite a bit to do with terrorism, and the vast majority of the victims of terrorism are Muslims who are killed by other Muslims. President Obama spoke about the need for the Muslim community to confront extremism. These are facts, and it's not inappropriate to say them.
Here’s Why Trump Is Right About ‘Shutting Down’ Parts Of The InternetbyMilo Yiannopoulos15 Dec 2015
Robyn Beck/AFP/Getty Images
If you are a moron, you could interpret Donald Trump’s statements in the GOP debate tonight to mean he wants to start shutting down specific websites or services on the internet. He clarified later that he was talking about geography: limiting access to, say, Syria or wherever Islamic State is operating from.
Trump is right not only that limiting or knocking out the internet is the best way of hampering Islamic State, but also because there is at least one solution that is eminently feasible. It’s just that sneering commentators aren’t educated enough to know about it.
Affirmed: At Least Two Clinton Emails Were 'Top Secret' Cortney O'Brien | Dec 15, 2015
Fox News’ Catherine Herridge has received confirmation from the intelligence community that at least two of the emails Hillary Clinton received on her private, unsecure server as secretary of state were not only classified, but “top secret.” The sources, who were not authorized to speak on the record, told Fox News that while the emails were indeed “top secret” when they hit Clinton’s server, one of them remains “top secret” to this day -- and must be handled at the highest security level. The second email is still considered classified but at the lower “secret” level because more information is publicly available about the event. The subject of these top secret messages? North Korean missiles and a drone strike. Are those not topics that deserve some serious security? This is more affirmation that Clinton placed American national security at risk by receiving intelligence that was not properly stored. The Democratic frontrunner has continued to claim her email scandal is a fabricated plan by Republicans to hurt her poll numbers. Little does she know that everyday Americans know better. They want a leader that is honest and full of integrity.
As if we needed more warnings about the perils of liberally welcoming refugees from the Middle East under current circumstances, here goes.
Two men suspected of links to last month’s Paris attacks have just been arrested in Austria. And, you may have guessed, they were found in a refugee center there.
ACLU Board Member Resigns After Urging People To Kill Supporters Of Trump By Shaun Boyd
DENVER (CBS4)– A board member for the American Civil Liberties Union of Colorado has resigned after urging people to kill supporters of presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Loring Wirbel’s Facebook post was captured by The Daily Caller – a right-leaning online newspaper.
The post states, “The thing is, we have to really reach out to those who might consider voting for Trump and say, ‘This is Goebbels. This is the final solution. If you are voting for him I will have to shoot you before Election Day.’ They’re not going to listen to reason, so when justice is gone, there’s always force…”
Cookie Dough CanExplodes In Woman’s Vagina liveleak.com · 1 hour ago
Greenville, N.C.- An incident coming out of Greenville, North Carolina is just one example of what some people will do aroudnd the holidays when they are short on cash. A 34 year old mother of 3 is now under arrest after a shoplifting incident turned tragic. Witnesses say Shatuanee Greene entered the Walmart on Sunday with her three children ages 5,7, and 8 when she grabbed a can of pre-made cookie dough. CCTV footage shows the young mother take the can to the toy aisle as her children crowded around her. Greene then lifted up her skirt and made the can of dough "disappear".
When Greene was approached by security, she told her children to go find their aunt in the front of the store. "I told her to hand over the cookie dough," said Timothy Reiner, a security guard for Walmart. "Thats when she turned around to run and I grabbed her by the arm. She put up a good fight, and thats when I tackled her to the floor. Then I heard a loud pop and the lady started screaming. Gooey cookie dough was running down her leg. All hot and running...it was so damn gross."
According to eyewitnesses, the EMT that treated Greene on the sceene said the Pillsbury cookie dough can exploded in Greenes vagina during the fall causing her extreme pain. They removed the contents at the scene. The woman was treated then released into the custody of Greenville police. While stabilizing Greene they also found candy sprinkles and a number 6 birthday candle wedged into the womans vaginal cavity. Greene did not suffer any serious injuries and is being held on $2000 bond.
MOHAMMED, FOUNDER OF ISLAM, WITH HIS SWORD AND THE KORAN, SYMBOLS OF HIS FAITH............religion..is this what you want taught to your children ?
“The focus of the lesson is said to be on the Islamic achievements in medicine, science, and mathematics and its domination after the decline of the Roman Empire.” Nonsense. This is not a lesson. This is propaganda void of historical accuracy and truth. And it’s being rammed down our children’s throats.
This is hardly new; I wrote of it in 2012. This is a big lie that the schools, museums and the media have indoctrinated hundreds of thousands of children with, giving them a rosy and romanticized view of Islam that makes them less appreciative of their own culture’s achievements and more complacent about Islamization in the West.
And now we see historical revisionism take on a new life, as history is scrubbed and manufactured Muslim myths are presented as fact. It is almost unfailingly dishonest.

Jimmy Carter Bans Iranian Immigrants from US, Deported Students During Hostage Crisis
Gateway Pundit reports:
The liberal media and Republican Party elites erupted this week after Donald Trump announced his plan to ban Muslim immigrants from the US until the government can assure it is safe to do so. But Democrat Jimmy Carter did the same thing, and much more during the Iranian hostage crisis.
This was from ABC’s coverage of Democratic President Jimmy Carter’s April 7th, 1980 speech, regarding US cutting relations with the Khomeinist regime in Iran.

Demand for Firearms Soars in Sweden as Reality Sets In
This is indeed the future of Europe. By their irresponsible, short-sighted, suicidal immigration and refugee policies, Europe’s political and media elites have ensured a future of violence, bloodshed and chaos for their people.
“Sweden, the future of Europe: people stock up on fire arms, police recommend vigilante groups…,” by Nicolai Sennels, 10News.dk, (thanks to TheReligionofPeace.com): This is a very interesting read, because the whole of Europe is heading the same way as Sweden. Sweden is, so to speak, the future of Europe. And in this future, those who can afford it pay security companies – the rest get license for firearms and form vigilante groups. - See more at:

“Refugee” screening official asked about Syrian program; her answer is MIND-BLOWING Michele Hickford, on December 13,
O.M.G! Just remember, this woman is entrusted with YOUR safety
Kelli Ann Burriesci is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Office of Screening Coordination in the Department of Homeland Security.
A 1997 graduate of Binghamton University, Burriesci told her school’s paper last spring “I work on policies that facilitate the travel of individuals to the United States, the legitimate issuant of immigration benefits and policy that deters bad guys that threaten the United States.” In the same article, she touted her “preparedness” for being able to take up such a big role when it was offered.
Last week, Burriesci appeared before the joint subcommittee hearing on “Terrorism and the Visa Waiver Program” to answer questions from co-chairman, Ohio U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan. Her role at the hearing was to answer questions about the review of Syrian refugees.
She couldn’t answer a single question. Not a one.
Take a gander at this little video and see if you can watch it without wincing (I personally could
not).
After the excruciatingly painful Q & A, Jordan summed up his frustration (per BizPac Review) “Ms. Burriesci, I’ve asked you the number of American’s who’ve traveled to Syria, you don’t know. The number of Americans who may have traveled and returned, you don’t know. The number of Syrian refugees who’ve entered the country in the last year, you don’t know. The number of visa waiver program overstays, you don’t know. The number of visa waiver overstays who may have been to Syria before they came here, you don’t know. And the number of American citizens on the no-fly list and you don’t know. And yet you are the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Screening Coordination, Office of Policy, Department of Homeland Security in front of the oversight committee and you can’t give us one single number to some, I think, pretty basic questions?”
BizPac says, “she also couldn’t answer questions from Rep. Mark Meadows and Rep. Steve Russell. But it was her answer to a question from Rep. Trey Gowdy that really was an attention grabber.
Seemingly flustered by the barrage of questions she was unprepared for, she referred to the K1 visa program as the KY visa program.”
Generally, I try to avoid any rude references, but I’m afraid I simply cannot stop myself this time. Is her reference to “KY” a Freudian slip regarding how the American people are being forced to “take this” from the Obama administration?

Trump backers baffled by criticism of his Muslim proposal
Associated Press By JILL COLVIN and BILL BARROW,
Tracy Hooker talks about Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump at Rosie's Hot Dogs in Greer, S.C., Thursday, Dec. 10, 2015. Trump's supporters don't see his plan to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. as "xenophobic" or an "appeal to hate," but rather as an entirely reasonable response to a clear and present threat.
GREER, S.C. — As she's working the counter at a hole-in-the-wall hot dog stand named Rosie's in upstate South Carolina, Tracy Hooker isn't interested in debating the merits of Donald Trump's proposal to temporarily block Muslims from coming into the United States. She knows some people think it's bigoted. That others argue it's impractical, legally dubious or both. And that every other Republican running for president has, in some way or another, rejected the idea that the plan is even worth talking about. That's why she says Trump is "my guy." He's the only one who gets it. "Think about it. You don't know what you've got here. You've got no clue," she said of the Muslim tourists, immigrants and refugees Trump wants to temporarily bar from coming to the U.S. "You don't know if they like us. You don't know if they hate us," said Hooker, 47, of Greer, South Carolina. "You don't know why they're here." To Hooker and the dozens of Trump supporters interviewed in the past week by The Associated Press in the first-to-vote states of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, the near universal condemnation of the billionaire's plan is simply baffling.
Where are the Syrian refugees now? Thousands already in US As Congress and America's governors debate whether to allow in more Syrian refugees, more than 2,000 already have been admitted since the start of the 2011 Syrian civil war. A spotlight may now be put on the status of those refugees, and the process for vetting them, as lawmakers and governors raise security concerns in the wake of the Paris terror attacks. House Speaker Paul Ryan called Tuesday for a "pause" in Syrian refugees coming to the U.S., and assembled a task force to bring legislation to a vote as soon as this week. "This is a moment where it's better to be safe than to be sorry," Ryan said.
