President Trump Slams Nancy Pelosi for Her Embrace of MS-13 Gang-Bangers: “We’re Not Going to Release Violent Criminals Into Our Country”

President Trump Slams Nancy Pelosi for Her Embrace of MS-13 Gang-Bangers: “We’re Not Going to Release Violent Criminals Into Our Country”

President Trump slammed Democrat leader Nancy Pelosi for her embrace of MS-13 gang-bangers last night in his speech to the Susan B. Anthony List Gala.

This came after Pelosi defended the brutal animals for their “spark of divinity.”

President Donald Trump: Just the other day, Nancy Pelosi came out in favor of MS-13. That’s the first time I’ve heard that. She wants them to be treated with respect as do other Democrats. That’s not going to be happening. We’re not going to release violent criminals into our country.

Pelosi’s pals.

State Department Warns Americans In China After Possible ‘Sonic Attack’ on Embassy Staffer

On Wednesday, an American working at the US consulate in Guangzhou was reportedly injured by an “abnormal” sound directed at the embassy, according to Reuters:

An American citizen working at the U.S. consulate in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou has reported suffering from “abnormal” sounds and pressure leading to a mild brain injury, the U.S. embassy said on Wednesday. The embassy, which issued a health alert to Americans living in China, said it could not link the case to health issues suffered by U.S. government staff in Cuba dating back to late 2016.

The staffer reportedly suffered a “mild traumatic brain injury.” The embassy has now released a health alert:

While in China, if you experience any unusual acute auditory or sensory phenomena accompanied by unusual sounds or piercing noises, do not attempt to locate their source. Instead, move to a location where the sounds are not present.

This amounts to the second such incident in a Communist country – in January, State Department doctor Charles Rosenfarb reported to the Senate that Cuban embassy members had “suffered headaches, hearing loss, disorientation and some loss of cognitive ability.” That incident resulted in the United States withdrawing some embassy staffers from Cuba.

‘End Capitalism, Don’t Enable It,’ And Other Crazy CA Candidate Statements

Here in California, our government gives welfare to illegal aliens, takes away citizens’ guns, teaches our sons they can be daughters, and our daughters, sons.

So it’s to be expected that many, if not most, of this state’s candidates for office are veritable crazy people.

I encountered this firsthand while reading the California Statewide Direct Primary Official Voter Information Guide. It’s a 95-page pamphlet that California voters receive in the mail before a statewide election, and we have one on June 5.

Candidates use the pamphlet as an opportunity to introduce themselves to voters via a “candidate statement.” These statements are amazing, hilarious — and often terrifying.

First, a little background on elections in California: They are no longer of any particular consequence. This is a state bluer than Tobias Funke auditioning for The Blue Man Group. This is a state in which the bounds of policy debate are “left” on the right and “lefter” on the left. This is a state in which a Democrat facing a Democrat is increasingly normal… in general elections.

The left’s newfound dominance in California (it wasn’t long ago that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Pete Wilson were governors and Ronald Reagan won it twice) is no small deal. California is the nation’s largest state in terms of population, gross domestic product, and electoral votes. But it also hasn’t come without a steep cost for California’s residents. The state is shrinking, increasingly impoverished, and broken.

Who’s to blame for this if not Democrats? But for Democrats there’s no personal responsibility, they blame the one man who’s to blame for everything: Donald Trump. He, along with “big business,” is somehow responsible for Democrats in Sacramento and San Francisco and Los Angeles governing the Golden State into the ground.

I can’t explain how, so, for that, let’s go to the candidates’ statements.

We start with U.S. Senate candidate Ling Ling Shi. Ling didn’t include a photo or even a party, but she’s sure that the “2016 U.S. Presidential Election should be nullified by the U.S. Supreme Court and U.S. should rehold 45th U.S. Presidential election.” Rehold?

Democratic Senate candidate Kevin de Leon says that “the President is hellbent on dividing our people and demeaning our California ideals.” He concludes by recounting his role in helping destroy California:

“I led historic efforts to improve the lives of everyday Californians by taking action on universal healthcare, pay equity, immigrant and civil rights, a $15 minimum wage, debt-free higher education, and making California a world leader in the fight against climate change.”

Candidate John Thompson Parker of the Peace and Freedom Party (red: Socialist) cuts to the chase real quick, “End capitalism — don’t enable it.” Hey, it worked for Sen. Bernie Sanders, who owns three house.

In the race for governor, there’s some interesting statements from Green Party Candidate Josh Jones, such as “Trans rights; not extra rights for corporations.”

Democratic candidate Michael Shellenberger wants you to know that Time Magazine recognized him as a “hero of the environment” for his views on climate change.

Peace and Freedom candidate Gloria Estela La Riva believes that “corporations, banks and the Pentagon have dominated society” for “too long.”

The #Resistance continues with another Democrat candidate who wants to make sure everyone knows he’s done his part. Cameron Gharabiklou says, “Because when history is written, it’ll say California rose up, resisted and led this country forward.”

Kevin Akin, another Peace and Freedom socialist wants to use his power as treasurer should he win, wants to promote socially-owned economic units like co-ops, unions, and open up a “State Bank.” Akin wants “democratic control and social ownership of our economy.” So, socialism.

Xavier Becerra is California’s current Attorney General and a flaming leftist. He brought charges against the pro-life undercover team that revealed that Planned Parenthood was selling baby parts.

He also wants voters to know he really doesn’t like the National Rifle Association. “I’ve been fighting for California values all my life and I will never back down whether it’s Big Oil, the NRA, or the Trump administration.”

Nathalie Hrizi Peace and Freedom Party wants to abolish health insurance companies. Hrizi states, “Healthcare is a right! Abolish health insurance companies. State must create non-profit provider for all required insurance. Vote Hrizi 2018!”

Democratic candidate Asig Mahmood wants you all to know that if you don’t elect him you must hate him. “As a Muslim immigrant from the state of California — I’m a triple threat to Donald Trump. I’ll be the first Muslim ever elected to statewide office in the country. Let’s send a clear message — it’s time to get tough on hate.

I’ll end with the most brief and best statement of them all:

Mr. Johnny Wattenburg has no party preference. He has no campaign website, no campaign headquarters. But he asks this simple question about whether to elect him: “Why not!”

Pray for us, America.

ISIS is on Google Plus. Wait… Google Plus is still a thing?

Listening to the news out of Iraq and Syria these days, you’d be tempted to think that ISIS was pretty much a thing of the past. Their caliphate has been shattered and the few places where they still hold any territory are marginal at best. Despite persistent rumors that the terror group’s leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was killed in an earlier missile strike, we’ve more recently heard that he’s not only alive but crafting a new strategy to allow his group to continue to thrive even after the physical destruction of the caliphate. (Washington Post)

Despite such rumors, U.S. counterterrorism officials are convinced that Baghdadi is alive and is helping direct long-term strategy for the dwindling numbers of Islamic State fighters defending the group’s remaining strongholds in eastern Syria. The U.S. view is supported by intelligence intercepts and detainee interrogations, as well as writings and statements by operatives within the terrorist group’s network.

The evidence, while spotty and difficult to confirm, depicts a leader who has opted to make himself invisible, even within his organization — a decision that has drawn complaints from followers and arguably undercuts his ability to rally his beleaguered forces, terrorism experts say.

The major thrust of Baghdadi’s new mission allegedly focuses on communication. He needs to reach out to children, specifically, and disaffected younger adult Muslims, inspiring them to continue with isolated terror attacks around the globe. But how can he best do that? I’m starting to wonder if this guy is really such a genius after all because he apparently decided on Google Plus as his platform of choice. (The Hill)

Scores of pro-ISIS accounts and communities have found a home on Google Plus despite being purged from other social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, according to a review by The Hill.

The Hill found dozens of pages across Google’s social media platform that explicitly show Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) propaganda, give news updates directly pulled from ISIS media, spread messages of hate towards Jews and other groups or show extremist imagery.

The Google Plus accounts and communities sharing ISIS-linked content did little to hide their affiliation. Many openly professed their support of the terrorist group. In many cases, accounts featured the ISIS flag and pictures of ISIS fighters.

First of all, I didn’t think Google Plus was still active in the social media market. I know I had an account for a while but I barely used it. They supposedly stopped supporting it more than three years ago and Wired pronounced it dead at the time. But then again, maybe that’s what makes it ideal for ISIS. The platform is still out there, but not being supported. So there’s probably not many people (including at Google) looking at it. Is ISIS hiding in plain sight?

Let’s say this is true. (And from the look of some of the accounts they highlighted, it certainly looks plausible.) Rather than worrying solely about the remnants of ISIS, shouldn’t we be asking how Google didn’t pick up on this on their own? This basically means that they have enough free time to shut down conservatives with “dangerous views” but ISIS accounts don’t qualify as hate speech?

Get on the ball, Google. Solve some real problems rather than picking winners and losers in domestic politics. Oh, and you might want to bring back the “Don’t Be Evil” part of your mandate.

Honest FBI Agents Step Forward: Want to Testify Against Their Deep State Masters

Honest FBI Agents Step Forward: Want to Testify Against Their Deep State Masters

Well, what do you know? There are honest men and women in the FBI after all!

Several agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation want Congress to subpoena them so they can rat out fired Director James Comey and former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.

They are sick of the public stain the immoral and criminal former leaders have placed on the FBI.

Via Kerry Picket at The Daily Caller:

Many agents in the FBI want Congress to subpoena them so they can reveal problems caused by former FBI Director James Comey and former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, three people in direct contact with active field agents tell TheDC.

“There are agents all over this country who love the bureau and are sickened by [James] Comey’s behavior and [Andrew] McCabe and [Eric] Holder and [Loretta] Lynch and the thugs like [John] Brennan–who despise the fact that the bureau was used as a tool of political intelligence by the Obama administration thugs,” former federal prosecutor Joe DiGenova told The Daily Caller Tuesday. “They are just waiting for a chance to come forward and testify.”

Ahead of the release of the Department of Justice (DOJ) inspector general report on how the FBI handled the Clinton email investigation, TheDC spoke with DiGenova, a former Trump official who maintained contact with rank and file FBI agents and a counter-intelligence consultant who conducted an interview with an active special agent of the FBI’s Washington Field Office (WFO)…

…These agents prefer to be subpoenaed to becoming an official government whistleblower, since they fear political and professional backlash, the former Trump administration official explained to TheDC.

They’ve blown up the Boy Scouts. What next?

Minutes after awakening this morning, my wife Mary read me this disturbing headline from her phone, “Condoms Required at Scouts’ 24th World Jamboree.”  My mind immediately went back years ago to when LGBTQ activists demanded that the Boy Scouts of America accept openly homosexual leaders.  LGBTQ activists claimed that homosexuals did not intend to change the Scouts.  They simply wanted to be included.  I remember a deceived parent on Facebook saying if the Boy Scouts did not surrender to permitting openly gay Scout masters, she would remove her son from the intolerant, bigoted hate group.


Mary read out loud from the article that, outrageously, the rules demand that condoms be distributed to the underage kids during the 12-day camping event.  My thoughts went to the movie Planet of the Apes at the end, when Charleston Heston’s character said, “You maniacs!  You blew it up!  Damn you…damn you all to hell!” 



In 1910, Lord Robert Baden-Powell founded the Boys Scouts Association.  In his book, “Scouting for Boys,” Baden-Powell stated his purpose for the organization. 


“We aim for the practice of Christianity in their everyday life and dealings, and not merely the profession of theology on Sundays[.]”


All these years later, wimpy, spineless officials and administrators have allowed political correctness and LGBTQ activists to blow up Baden-Powell’s vision, corrupting yet another once great Christian organization.  Yes, I am extremely angry.


All who sounded the alarm that allowing promoters of homosexuality into the Christian-based organization would change the Boy Scouts were branded paranoid haters.  Meanwhile, LGBTQ activists have forced the Boy Scouts to change the original Scout Oath.


“On my honor, I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.”


What awesome and upright principles.  Imagine how wonderful our country would be if more men lived by this creed.  LGBTQ activists have intimidated the Scouts into removing “morally straight” from the Scout Oath.


LGBTQ activists have forced Baden-Powell’s organization to drop “boy” from its name and admit girls in 2019. 


Will someone please tell me what was hateful or mean about Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts having separate organizations?  Do y’all know that LGBTQ activists seek to erase the gender line between male and female?  Public school teachers are forced to address elementary students as “eagles” rather than boys and girls. 


Folks, I am so sick of mainstream people in power cowering to LGBTQ activists.  When will someone have the courage to tell these people no?  I vow to slap the next Christian who tells me we need to be more passive and loving.  I’m kidding.  But look where passivity has gotten us.


SOGI (Sexual Orientation Gender Identity) laws mandate that LGBTQ lessons be implemented in every grade (pre-K through 12) and every subject.  Math questions begin with “two guys enter a gay bar.”  In public schools, LGBTQ lessons include BDSM, anal sexual activity, asphyxiation, gender-bending, and rimming.  Does this sound as insane to you as it does to me?  And yet this vile brainwashing and robbery of our kids’ innocence continues unabated beneath the national radar.


Whitney Houston was correct when she sang, “I believe the children are our future.”  If we keep allowing leftists to confiscate our children, game over.  Our future as a great nation is lost.


Years ago, LGBTQ activists beat the crap out of me in the media for asking this question.  Rather than forcing the Boy Scouts to abandon its Christian roots, why wouldn’t homosexuals start their own youth organization?  What is stopping pedophiles who run NAMBLA (North American Man-Boy Love Association) from starting a scouting program?  LGBTQ activists branded me a hater for asking this logical question.


The truth is, LGBTQ activists are on a mission to destroy Christian institutions – to force Christians to “approve” their lifestyle.  LGBTQ activists seek to force Christians to betray Jesus by kneeling in worship to their false god of depravity.  Leftists are working to create a godless America in which anything goes sexually.  Everywhere you turn, you can see evidence of leftists’ removing traditional Godly principles and values that have made America great.  It sickens me whenever I see politicians and people in power caving to LGBTQ activists’ demands.


In 1962, we caved to leftists’ demand to remove prayer from public schools.  Schools have progressively transformed from institutions of discipline and learning to hellholes of violence, daycare for parents in middle school, drug abuse, disrespect for authority, and students graduating unable to read their diplomas.  Meanwhile, we keep allowing leftists to have their way.


What great Christian institution, traditional value, or principle will LGBTQ leftists target next for destruction?


The good news is, I am seeing signs of more Americans pushing back against LGBTQ leftist bullying. 


Oh, how I long to see the spirit of John Wayne reborn in an American leader with true grit.  Oh, wait – we have that in Donald Trump.  Still, America needs more leaders with backbone to tell LGBTQ leftists no.

Coming attractions: FBI agents speaking out about the abuses of Comey and McCabe

President Trump this morning on Twitter applied the name  “Spygate” to the ongoing revelations about the FBI and intelligence community employing their technological and human agent tools to spy on the Trump presidential campaign and transition.


 




President Trump this morning on Twitter applied the name  “Spygate” to the ongoing revelations about the FBI and intelligence community employing their technological and human agent tools to spy on the Trump presidential campaign and transition.


 





It’s a good title for what is going to be a long form reality television program (as well as a political scandal and constitutional crisis, among other far-reaching consequences). Despite the best efforts of the Trump-hatting, Russia/Stormy Daniels-obsessed media to ignore it, the story is going to build into a major factor in the coming midterm elections and far beyond. And it will be driven by forces beyond the control of the combined might of CNN, The New York Times, NBC, and the other grandees of the mainstream media. For one thing, the POTUS is tweeting – a LOT, leading up to the Spygate moniker:


 



 



 



 



 



 



 



 



But beyond tweets, there will be a cascade of evidence coming our way. The DOJ Inspector General’s report is one source, and potential criminal referrals from that report could provide far more grist for the wheels of justice to grind. But the wheels of justice move slowly. Before that happens, there will other drama playing out.


Kerry Pickett of the Daily Caller has been in touch with sources who tell her:


Many agents in the FBI want Congress to subpoena them so they can reveal problems caused by former FBI Director James Comey and former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, three people in direct contact with active field agents tell TheDC.


“There are agents all over this country who love the bureau and are sickened by [James] Comey’s behavior and [Andrew] McCabe and [Eric] Holder and [Loretta] Lynch and the thugs like [John] Brennan–who despise the fact that the bureau was used as a tool of political intelligence by the Obama administration thugs,” former federal prosecutor Joe DiGenova told The Daily Caller Tuesday. “They are just waiting for a chance to come forward and testify.”


DiGenova is willing to go on the record, but another source for Pickett needs anonymity, at least for the moment:


…a counter-intelligence consultant who conducted an interview with an active special agent of the FBI’s Washington Field Office (WFO).


The DC independently confirmed the veracity of the consultant’s position and access, and reviewed detailed transcripts of his Q&A with the special agent, who requested the arrangement due to internal dragnets and fear of vicious retribution.


These agents prefer to be subpoenaed to becoming an official government whistleblower, since they fear political and professional backlash, the former Trump administration official [DiGenova] explained to The DC.


The subpoena is preferred, he said, “because when you are subpoenaed, Congress then pays…for your legal counsel and the subpoena protects [the agent] from any organizational retaliation…. they are on their own as whistleblowers, they get no legal protection and there will be organizational retaliation against them.”


So, once the subpoenas are issued – and they will be, the timing to depend on other evidence – probably the IG report — laying the predicate, expect a dam burst of testimony:


The special agent out of WFO alleged that rank and file FBI agents are fed up and desperately want action from the DOJ, according to the transcripts.


“Every special agent I have spoken to in the Washington Field Office wants to see McCabe prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. They feel the same way about Comey,“ the special agent said, according to transcripts provided to The DC (snip)


The special agent added, “Activity that Congress is investigating is being stonewalled by leadership and rank-and-file FBI employees in the periphery are just doing their jobs. All Congress needs to do is subpoena involved personnel and they will tell you what they know. These are honest people. Leadership cannot stop anyone from responding to a subpoena. Those subpoenaed also get legal counsel provided by the government to represent them.


Keep in mind that Watergate took a very long time to unfold. In today’s media environment of social media and cable news, the pace is faster, but still requires time. A vast transition in psychology is part of the reason for this pace. Potential whistleblowers need to feel safe, which requires a body of supportive evidence exist before they can take that risk. And the general public has to be acclimated to the notion that that something very wrong has taken place. Right now, conservative consumers of conservative media generally understand the magnitude of the scandal and have knowledge of some of the intricacies of the narrative – points like the changing timelines offered for when the investigation of the Trump campaign began. But this understanding requires time, energy, and a focus on the issue.


For the story to break out into the consciousness of casual news consumers, points of dramatic conflict are necessary. The presidential tweets and labels provide some of that, but more important will be testimony under oath that paints a picture of clear corruption. Such as FBI agents accusing well-known figures like Comey and McCabe of abusing their authority. Or maybe even former members of the cabal confessing their own roles and seeking mercy from the court.


If you are looking for a promising investment, consider popcorn futures.

The Biggest Threat to America’s Future Is the Media

The United States of America is by far the most powerful nation on Planet Earth, spending about as much on defense as the entire rest of the world.  According to a report on globalization from Credit Suisse, the U.S. has maintained its position as the world’s strongest military.  As an example, although Russia has the most substantial number of tanks, approximately 15,000, with the U.S. coming in at around 8,000, the U.S. tops the list in military aircraft with approximately 14,000, submarines at 72, and ten fleet aircraft carriers and two more under construction.


There is just no realistic way for any outside entity to physically take over the streets of a country whose known weaponry is capable of incinerating the globe many times over.  You will never see an Iranian tank rolling down Park Avenue in Manhattan.  The reason many Hollywood sci-fi movies have the invading extraterrestrials focused on taking over and destroying Washington, D.C. and not Rome or Caracas is that much of the movie-going world realizes that if the capital of the world’s superpower goes, it’s pretty much game over for the rest of the big blue marble.  



So, with the odds of any real threat of invasion to the U.S. coming from a foreign country at near zero,  the only possible way the American people can lose their freedom is through an internal collapse – a breakdown not only of the rule of law, culture, and language, but Judeo-Christian values upon which America built its foundation.  If there is a playbook on the specific steps needed to dismantle America from within, it is indeed in use today.  There is no secret how the left has been amazingly successful in such a short period. 


Outnumbered and without supporting evidence or facts to back up its globalist, anti-American rhetoric, the left relies entirely on the full support of the media.  Today, the media in the United States are not objective seekers and disseminators of truth.  In truth, the media serve as the propagandist and protector of the forces that want to change America from a constitutional republic to a socialist state. The evidence is clear and overwhelming of the countless times the media have selectively covered what promotes leftist ideals and ignored or altered the facts of what exposes the sinister leftist agenda.  The clear examples of media bias, misinformation, and deceit are inescapable.


It’s hard to imagine that the news organizations we have all grown up with and trusted all our lives are now actively undermining our system of government and using their far-reaching influence to divide the population in their effort to control better.  With the full assistance of the media, the leftist plan to alter America’s course from a free to a significantly oppressed society has become more of a reality.  Continuous and relentless leftist propaganda distributed by the media most certainly has an impact on the American psyche.  It is the deliberate intention of the media to successfully elevate the fringe leftist element in America and demonize all types of speech and opinion that run counter to the leftist program.  


The media can no longer hide behind the benign image of a sometimes left-leaning communications entity because they have exposed themselves for what indeed they are: active participants in the dismantling of traditional American values.  Anything short of acknowledging this realization is dealing with the self-defeating activity of self-deception.


The pervasively destructive demand for politically correct language extinguishes the essential means of communication.  It is a fundamental part of liberty that Americans need to speak freely and openly without concern regarding hurting the feelings of others.  Political correctness is a weapon in the arsenal of the left, and free-thinking Americans should resist legitimizing such a tactic and refrain from using that weapon against themselves.


It is not hyperbolic to say today’s mainstream media are an enemy of truth, conservative thought, and the authority of the United States Constitution.  Many young, as well as some seasoned journalists in today’s media are not capable of reporting the truth, either because of their leftist indoctrination in liberal universities or out of fear of the consequences from the leftist editorial boards of most media outlets.


There is no question that the left aims at changing America in the worst possible way, but its efforts would go largely unnoticed if not for the sympathetic and like-minded media.

Outnumbered and without supporting evidence or facts to back up its globalist, anti-American rhetoric, the left relies entirely on the full support of the media.  Today, the media in the United States are not objective seekers and disseminators of truth.  In truth, the media serve as the propagandist and protector of the forces that want to change America from a constitutional republic to a socialist state. The evidence is clear and overwhelming of the countless times the media have selectively covered what promotes leftist ideals and ignored or altered the facts of what exposes the sinister leftist agenda.  The clear examples of media bias, misinformation, and deceit are inescapable.


It’s hard to imagine that the news organizations we have all grown up with and trusted all our lives are now actively undermining our system of government and using their far-reaching influence to divide the population in their effort to control better.  With the full assistance of the media, the leftist plan to alter America’s course from a free to a significantly oppressed society has become more of a reality.  Continuous and relentless leftist propaganda distributed by the media most certainly has an impact on the American psyche.  It is the deliberate intention of the media to successfully elevate the fringe leftist element in America and demonize all types of speech and opinion that run counter to the leftist program.  


The media can no longer hide behind the benign image of a sometimes left-leaning communications entity because they have exposed themselves for what indeed they are: active participants in the dismantling of traditional American values.  Anything short of acknowledging this realization is dealing with the self-defeating activity of self-deception.


The pervasively destructive demand for politically correct language extinguishes the essential means of communication.  It is a fundamental part of liberty that Americans need to speak freely and openly without concern regarding hurting the feelings of others.  Political correctness is a weapon in the arsenal of the left, and free-thinking Americans should resist legitimizing such a tactic and refrain from using that weapon against themselves.


It is not hyperbolic to say today’s mainstream media are an enemy of truth, conservative thought, and the authority of the United States Constitution.  Many young, as well as some seasoned journalists in today’s media are not capable of reporting the truth, either because of their leftist indoctrination in liberal universities or out of fear of the consequences from the leftist editorial boards of most media outlets.


There is no question that the left aims at changing America in the worst possible way, but its efforts would go largely unnoticed if not for the sympathetic and like-minded media.

Islamizing the Schools: The Case of West Virginia

 


This is an outrage, but it is common nationwide: the Daily Caller News Foundation reports that Mountain Ridge Middle School in West Virginia is “instructing junior high students to write the Islamic profession of faith ostensibly to practice calligraphy.”  Students are made to write out the Shahada, which states: “There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.”



This is exactly what I warned about in my book, Stop the Islamization of America: A Practical Guide to the Resistance, in the chapter “The Mosqueing of the Public Schools.”


In order to convert to Islam, one says the shahada.  Saying the shahada makes you a Muslim.  The shahada is what is on the black flag of jihad.


No non-Muslim student should be forced to write or say the shahada without the qualifier “Muslims believe that…”  This is because it is a statement of faith.  If the school exercise is requiring students to write it, it should be clear from the wording of the exercise that this is Islamic faith, not the student’s faith.  That distinction has been glossed over in many, many school textbook presentations.


This is in West Virginia, not Baghdad.  And it’s a problem not just in West Virginia – it’s a national problem.


Rich Penkoski, the father of a Mountain Ridge student, contacted me and explained the situation further.  He sent me the packets the school gave out for the Jewish and the Christian lessons and commented:


Notice no bible verses, no reciting the 10 commandments or the Lord’s prayer.  No practicing writing in Hebrew (not even the 10 commandments) as compared to the Islamic packet.


There are no statements of faith, nothing asking the students to write it or practice in any of the Jewish or Christian rituals.


Furthermore the principal of Mountain Ridge Middle School Dr. Branch has used my words against me by saying the teacher did tell the students about the Lord’s prayer (my daughter as well as 1 other said this is false)[.]  He is using my arguments I made to him yesterday to protect the teacher.


The teacher today told the students the assignment was optional.  My daughter as well as other students were under the impression all the packet assignments were mandatory (the Jewish one and the Christian ones were mandatory).


I wrote to Dr. Branch to share with him the resource that Miss Hinson used and point out that the material she gave the students did not include all the faith aspects for Christianity.  The students received 2 pages for Christianity from this resource while all the Islamic sections were left intact.


Here’s the link for you to review.  You will notice all the faith elements were left out for Judaism and Christianity while the Islamic section was left the way it’s presented.


https://www.gvsd.org/cms/lib/PA01001045/Centricity/Domain/610/World%20Religions.pdf


So she decided to use the extra resources for Islam and the school is saying that’s not indoctrination or proselytizing?  The faith aspects and the same considerations were not given to the others as they were for Islam.  This actually further proves my point that Islam was afforded special privilege over the others.


The school is backtracking and being deceptive to try and weasel out of this.  The teacher today clarified things for the students but that still does not excuse the fact that they are teaching the Islamic faith and asking the kids to participate in Sharia.  Look at the Islamic packet again.  They are asking the kids to write the beginning of Surahs.  The teacher still has not corrected the error that calligraphy was started by the arabs.


They are doubling down and only after being called on it are they trying to backtrack.


Rich Penkoski is hardly the first to protest this egregious submission to the most vicious and brutal ideology on the face of the Earth.  In Volusia County, Florida, hundreds protested Islamic lessons in their  “World History” text, a Common Core-approved high school history textbook.


With an entire chapter dedicated to the virtues of Islam and not a single chapter for Christianity, the textbook had Floridians in a frenzy.  And who is the biggest pusher of Common Core besides leftist progressives?  The Islamic Society of North America, a Muslim Brotherhood front group, along with the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).  In Florida, CAIR is on the offensive (more here).


We have seen the increasing Islamization of the public-school curriculum.  History lessons in Islam are dawah – proselytizing for Islam.  Large public-school publishers have been bought by the Saudis.


In West Virginia, it gets even worse.  Rich Penkoski has alerted me to the latest development in the forced Islamization of his children’s school curriculum: after the Daily Caller and Geller Report exposed what was happening, Mountain Ridge administrators and teachers began messaging parents who were sharing the story, asking them to remove their posts.


What do they have to hide?  Apparently, a great deal.


Worse still, Penkoski is now being threatened by students who attend the school with his daughter.  (And who is behind them?  Unidentified “adult friends.”)


He sent this message to me:


A student in the school threatened to get her adult friends to come to my home and kill me by stabbing me in the chest and ripping my organs out.  They told my daughter “we are gonna get some people and kill your dad.”  This student, who is known to me but whom I cannot name because she is a minor, has given students our address and is encouraging them to come to my home over this whole thing.  Another student told my daughter that she and the first student and her adult friends are going to kill me and carve a satanic star in my chest and rip out my organs.


They then threatened to hang my 3-year-old and 1-year-old and kidnap my 14-year-old.


All this in school today because of the articles.


This is not a joke and needs to be investigated.  I have contacted the school’s principal, Dr. Branch, and I trust that he will take this matter seriously and deal with it appropriately.


Is the principal acting on this?  And do the police have any interest in this?  Or would that be “islamofauxbic”?
