SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly have defended federal agents who make immigration arrests at courthouses after California's top judge asked them to stop, according to a letter released Friday. Sessions and Kelly sent the letter Wednesday to California Supreme Court Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye, saying state and city policies barring local law enforcement from turning over suspects for deportation have compelled federal agents to arrest immigrants at courthouses and other public places. Courthouses are a safe place for federal agents to make the arrests because visitors are typically screened for weapons, the ...

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel has moved forward with plans for a Chicago-only identification card specifically designed to ensure illegal aliens in the city can receive welfare benefits with minimal risk of repatriation. The new program was unveiled at a Chicago City Council meeting on Wednesday, and it protects illegal aliens from federal oversight by not collecting any copies of identification documents presented when illegals apply for the identification card. “Applicants bring in the documents to prove someone’s identity. They hand them over to specially trained individual who can review the documents and then hand them back … It’s going to capture just the name and ...
BREAKING : Liberal Activist Lawyer Gloria Allred Under Investigation for MISCONDUCT

Liberal activist and huckster attorney Gloria Allred is under investigation by the State Bar of California for an undisclosed act of “misconduct.” Couldn’t happen to a more deserving ambulance chaser. You’ll recall, during the 2016 election, Allred played a key role in the fake “Trump Assault Victims” story when she paraded out a bad actress, weeping about her twenty-year-old pretend “assault.” Weird how after President Trump won, we never heard another peep from those “poor victimized ladies,” huh? I’d like to see a “Where Are They Now?” special on CNN. From Washington Examiner The State Bar of California is ...

NOT backing down: Freedom Caucus stands strong amid attacks from the president

Though the Freedom Caucus is under assault from all sides, some of its members who have spoken to the media or made public statements are standing strong — insisting that they are willing to work with President Trump to keep the GOP’s promise to repeal Obamacare. The media has used the failure of the American Health Care Act — Republican leadership’s phony repeal bill — as an excuse to attack conservatives in Congress. The Tea Party members of the Freedom Caucus, who opposed the legislation on grounds that it would not improve the American health insurance market, have been labeled “hardliners” who are unwilling to “compromise” or “get ...
Thomas Massie: Trump ‘burning political capital’ with attacks on conservatives

Rep. Thomas Massie isn’t worried about President Trump coming after him in a primary election over his opposition to the health care bill that sputtered out last week in the House, saying the commander-in-chief is “burning political capital” by listening to members of the establishment and attacking conservatives that want to help him deliver on his promise to “drain the swamp.”“He can bring Air Force One, Marine One and Amtrak One, it is not going to change what I am going to do,” Mr. Massie, Kentucky Republican, said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe. “My constituents … sent me to D.C. frankly to drain the swamp and we were excited, you know, ...
Pat Buchanan: Is Putin the ‘Preeminent Statesman’ of Our Times?

“If we were to use traditional measures for understanding leaders, which involve the defense of borders and national flourishing, Putin would count as the preeminent statesman of our time. “On the world stage, who could vie with him?” So asks Chris Caldwell of the Weekly Standard in a remarkable essay in Hillsdale College’s March issue of its magazine, Imprimis.[How to Think About Vladimir Putin, March 2017] What elevates Putin above all other 21st-century leaders? “When Putin took power in the winter of 1999-2000, his country was defenseless.

Conservatives Demand IRS Commissioner’s Head In White House Meeting

An off-the-record White House meeting with roughly two dozen conservative leaders Wednesday included explicit calls for President Trump to fire IRS Commissioner John Koskinen, according to a source in the room. White House conservative liaison Paul Teller organized the meeting Wednesday between Trump staffers and leaders of conservative groups such as the Heritage Foundation and Judicial Watch. Talk of Koskinen’s firing was part of a larger discussion on clearing out Obama-era personnel from the executive branch where possible, the source said. The broad consensus among attendees was that Trump needs to clean out Obama-era bureaucrats if he is going to be successful in pushing ...
Max Boot’s “GOP is the White Nationalist Party” Smear
Post Date: 2017-03-31 12:21:19 by Tooconservative

Pseudo-conservative Foreign Policy blogger Max Boot is making the outrageous claim that the entire Republican Party has been taken over by a dangerous racist fringe. Boot’s insane argument rests on one core contention: that because Republicans tolerate, even like, Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), a patriot and a truly courageous conservative champion, their party has therefore fallen into the hands of white nationalists. The fact that King isn’t actually a white nationalist or a racist, which is the real thing Boot is accusing the lawmaker of, in no way hinders the writer from making his pitch. Nor does the unbalanced Boot make any effort to define the term “white ...

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich discusses with Sean Hannity why “Ryancare” failed. “First, you have to win the argument in the Country.

It starts with the right bill that does the right things for rural America. Watch the video:

Until now I have pretty much stayed on the sidelines of politics. But I need to change that because in my books I urge all Christians to get involved in politics. So I figure it is high time I got involved in politics because the last time I got actively involved was when I campaigned for Reagan. Anyhow, the news today is that Trump tweeted about the Freedom Caucus, "we must defeat them and the dems." I did a little research and read they are a group of Libertarians and far-right conservatives and most of them are from Texas. And actually I am good friends with one of them (Dr. Ron Paul). But ironically, his son who leads the Freedom Caucus, I really don't like much. And ...

EUROPEAN Union boss Jean-Claude Juncker issued a jaw-dropping threat to the United States, saying he could campaign to break up the country in revenge for Donald Trump’s supportive comments about Brexit. n an extraordinary speech the EU Commission president said he would push for Ohio and Texas to split from the rest of America if the Republican president does not change his tune and become more supportive of the EU. The remarks are diplomatic dynamite at a time when relations between Washington and Brussels are already strained over Europe’s meagre contributions to NATO and the US leader’s open preference for dealing with national governments.

Each year, hundreds of people are nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, and 2017 is no different. According to the Nobel Institute, 318 people were nominated for this year's award, including Pope Francis, Edward Snowden, the "White Helmets" of Syria...and none other than President Donald J. Trump. Trump was reportedly nominated by an American for his efforts to bring peace to the world via strength, and for combating terrorism. While the list of the nominees is kept secret for half a century, people who actually do the nominating are free to say who they nominated. Trump is considered to be a longshot. The Nobel Peace Prize recipient will be announced in October. Last ...

Rep. Justin Amash, far right, exits the Senate chamber on Capitol Hill on May 31, 2015. Drew Angerer/Getty Images Congressman Justin Amash of Michigan was speaking to the press about the GOP’s Obamacare replacement in the speaker's lobby of the House of Representatives when, as Politico reported Friday afternoon, a sudden realization dawned on him. He asked the gaggle the status of a vote on the floor. A reporter informed him that she believed a vote on an amendment was underway. Then this happened:Amash immediately sprinted into the chamber and tried to put his card in the voting slot to cast his yea or nay, but the vote had closed.

WASHINGTON — A word of warning before President Donald Trump decides to go after U.S. Rep. Justin Amash next year: It's been tried before and it didn't work out too well.On Thursday morning, Trump, apparently still smarting from being forced last week to drop a plan to replace the Affordable Care Act in the face of conservative intransigence, went on Twitter to say his supporters "must fight" members of the so-called Freedom Caucus that opposed the bill, presumably drumming up opposition for them in next year's elections if they "don't get on the team & fast."That would include Amash, a Republican from Cascade Township, who was clear in his ...

Like many Palestinian Americans, I was ecstatic when Justin Amash was elected Congressman from the Michigan in November 2010. There have been several American Arab members of the U.S. Congress, but Amash was the first who was solidly identified as being Palestinian. He joined a besieged group of congressional members, American Arabs who have to battle against the powerful pro-Israel lobby and also win votes against often vicious opponents. Politics is no June afternoon picking strawberries. But the key difference is that Amash, 30, a former member of the Michigan State Legislature from the 72nd District and the second youngest ember of the U.S House behind 29 year old Aaron Schock of ...

WASHINGTON ― Within the Republican rat race to shift core principles and cozy up to the Trump administration, there’s one Republican in the House who seems totally uninterested in running the maze. When Donald Trump proposed a year of jail or loss of citizenship for burning the flag, this congressman said no president should be allowed to “burn the First Amendment.”When Trump said only the media thinks his potential conflicts of interest are “a big deal,” he quote tweeted the president-elect to say that it was indeed a big deal, affixing Trump’s hashtag, #draintheswamp.And when Trump indicated he would nominate Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) to be attorney ...

Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.) was born in the United States, the son of a Palestinian refugee father and a Syrian immigrant mother. So perhaps it’s no surprise that he is one of the GOP’s most outspoken critics of President Trump’s immigration order. “I’ve had both of those aspects in my life — the immigrant aspect and the refugee aspect,” Amash said in an interview Wednesday on Capitol Hill. “I believe it’s important that we remain a welcoming country, that people feel they have the opportunity to come here and start a new life.” Amash is one of six lawmakers of Arab descent suddenly thrust into the spotlight thanks to a heated national ...

Representative Justin Amash (R-MI) hinted at a 2020 run during his speech at the Young Americans for Liberty National Convention. As one of the few libertarian Republicans in elected office, Amash is looking to continue the movement Ron Paul inspired. Amash is one of the few remaining left in the Never Trump movement and is actively looking to back someone besides the Republican nominee. Rare called him “the most high profile libertarian Republican in Congress after Senator Rand Paul” and one of the “two congressmen who are generally considered the most beloved by the Ron Paul-inspired liberty movement.” It’s important that we have a strong libertarian voice ...

“Somebody Got shot right now….I Gotta Go, But I’m Not Gonna Go” In a troubling 51-second YouTube video that reportedly has gone viral among members of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, an on duty LASD deputy appears to deliberately ignore a “gunshot victim” radio call. As the video opens, the deputy—who has been identified as 26-year-old Jeremy Fennell—lounges in what appears to be the driver’s seat of his stationary patrol car talking on camera to a female friend when, all at once, his radio screeches to life, and the voice of an LASD dispatch operator puts out a call to Lakewood patrol cars about a 417, person with a gun. ...
The House Un-Freedom Caucus

After the health-care failure, it’s time for Republican voters and donors to rethink their political support. On the night of Nov. 8, 2016, after it was clear that Donald Trump had upset Hillary Clinton, there was broad agreement that one word described the American electorate’s purpose: change. Voters wanted change from the status quo. Last week, not 100 days into the Trump presidency, the members of the House Freedom Caucus decided that the 2016 election was not about change. It was instead about legislative gridlock, with the bitterly ironic difference that these 25 or so self-described conservatives have locked up their own party. Democrats need 24 pickups to regain control ...
