OECD: Mass Migration Costs France 10 Billion Euros a Year

Mass migration costs French taxpayers around 10 billion euros per year, according to figures from the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

The actual cost of immigration is a highly debated subject in France. The populist National Rally (RN), led by Marine Le Pen, estimates it could be anywhere from 10 billion to 70 billion a year when adding in other linked costs, franceinfo reports.

That could include housing, medical benefits, the care of unaccompanied minors, and other social benefits for migrants, as well as all of the associated costs of asylum seekers and illegals.

A report released last month estimated that each minor illegal migrant costs the French taxpayer approximately 50,000 euros per year. With 41,000 underage migrants in the country, that puts the annual bill to the taxpayer at two billion euros.

The OECD report does say that migrants bring in around four billion euros a year, but the figure still leaves French taxpayers with a large deficit as the number of migrants grows annually.

The growth has been particularly prevalent in the number of migrants seeking asylum in France. For the last several years in a row, France has set record numbers in terms of asylum claims. 2018 alone saw an estimated 123,000 asylum claims.

The French Office for the Protection of Refugees and Stateless Persons (OFPRA) noted that the highest number of asylum seekers last year came from Afghanistan, up 55 per cent from the previous year.

Earlier this week, the French parliament debated the subject of immigration with French President Emmanuel Macron saying the country should not be “too attractive” for migrants.

National Rally leader Marine Le Pen, by contrast, has slammed Macron for being too soft on immigration and recently proposed a national referendum on immigration issues.

“These are questions to which the French have the right to answer, have the right to be questioned because it’s been for the past 30 years that an immigration policy which is contrary to their will has been carried out,” Le Pen said last month.

RNC Spox: ‘We’re Spending Millions on TV and Digital Ads’ Targeting Dems in Trump Districts

Tuesday during a radio appearance, Republican National Committee deputy communications director Cassie Smedile acknowledged her organization was targeting Democrats not just in districts President Donald Trump won in 2016 but also ones he narrowly lost to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton as well.

Smedile told Huntsville, AL radio WVNN’s “The Jeff Poor Show” that the goal was to point out these Democrats did not live up to their billing when running in the 2018 midterm elections, especially as it pertains to the congressional Democrats’ effort to impeach Trump.

“We’re spending millions of dollars on TV and digital ads in these very districts,” she said. “There are over 30 Democrats in districts that Donald Trump won. If you add in districts that Hillary Clinton narrowly won that previously Republicans have won, now you’re looking at over 60 districts. And those are represented by Democrats in Congress who did not get elected by saying they were going to be part of the socialist ‘Squad,’ or the next AOC, or an obstructionist. They got elected exactly the opposite. They said, ‘I’m not going to be like them. I’m going to be a pragmatist. I’m going to work with Donald Trump when possible.’ And you know what? Not only have they not done it, but by then coming out in favor of this impeachment inquiry, they have shown their true political partisan stripes.”

“We’re in their districts,” she continued. “We’ve got awesome volunteers. I was just looking at some of the videos that are coming, and I saw them on Twitter of folks like you and me, who are going out, everyday citizens, going to their members of Congress’ offices and saying, ‘This is not what we sent you to Washington to work on. Stop playing politics and start working on policy.’ And I hope their members of Congress are hearing them. But if not, they certainly will hear them loud and clear at the ballot box next November.”

Nickelback Sees 500% Increase in Music Streams After Trump Tweet

Rock band Nickelback saw it’s 2005 hit song “Photograph” spike in popularity and sales, after a politically charged tweet by President Donald Trump.

Last week, Trump took aim at Democrat presidential hopeful Joe Biden, and his dubious ties to the Ukraine. The tweet featured a video in which Biden claim innocence, followed by the iconic shot of Nickelback lead singer Chad Kroeger holding up a photograph edited to show Biden, his son, and a Ukrainian gas company executive.

Amid the chaos of the Democrat impeachment inquiry, the internet at large embraced the meme — with many commenting that tweeting Nickelback at all should be an “impeachable offense.”

In response to the now-famous tweet, Nickelback pushed Twitter to remove it on copyright grounds. Nevertheless, the activity threw the pop rock band back into the proverbial spotlight. Overnight, streams of their music — “Photograph,” especially — skyrocketed. Within a week, the surge reached 569%.

And while it might not be grounds for impeachment unless you tongue is lodged firmly in cheek, it is a well known fact that being forced to listen to Nickelback constitutes actual punishment.

Border Wall Construction Breaks Ground in South Donna – 71 Miles Completed So Far – 509 Miles By 2020 Election

Border construction broke ground in South Donna, Texas this week.

So far 71-89 miles of construction have been completed.

509 miles are slated for completion by next November.

That’s 509 miles of border wall completed without ONE SINGLE DEMOCRAT VOTE!

A new website “TrumpWallconstrution” went live recently with information on the current progress of the Trump Border Wall.

The website includes an interactive map that has information on planning and current work in progress of the prominent sectors of the border wall:

SAN DIEGO
EL CENTRO
YUMA
TUCSON
EL PASO
BIG BEND
DEL RIO
LAREDO
RIO GRANDE VALLEY

The creator Donaldu Magnus wrote this as an introduction.

Welcome to my website! I created this to be a one stop shop to find out all about the status of Trump’s border wall. The fake news refuses to cover this in any kind of meaningful way other than shallow 30 second clips or short articles. I was frustrated that nobody was covering this in a way to really understand exactly where the new wall was being built and where the existing wall was. The US-Mexico border is 2,000 miles long and I didn’t really understand exactly where the “wall” already was and where the new wall would be built. So with my interactive map you can see exactly where the wall is being built as well as current “wall”.

I will do my best to keep my map and website updated with the latest information including pictures and videos.

This is an amazing website.
Check it out often to get the real news on the wall.

Surrendering to SPLC’s Lazy Media Lemmings

Surrendering to SPLC’s Lazy Media Lemmings
by Michelle Malkin
Creators Syndicate
Copyright 2019

ACT for America, a nationwide grassroots group that educates the public about radical Islam, was founded in 2007 by my vigilant activist friend and Lebanese Christian immigrant journalist Brigitte Gabriel. I was honored to accept Gabriel’s invitation to speak at her organization’s annual banquet at Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida, on Nov. 7.

Gabriel has worked tirelessly to expose the Islamic imperialist agenda of the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamic state; barbaric practices of female genital mutilation and honor killings by adherents of sharia; and the whitewashing of violent jihad in American middle school textbooks. Past speakers and honorees at ACT for America’s events and legislative briefings include former Rep. Mike Pompeo of Kansas (now President Donald Trump’s secretary of state), Rep. Jim Bridenstine of Oklahoma (now Trump’s NASA administrator), Rep. Ron DeSantis of Florida (now Florida governor) and Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee.

I planned to talk to ACT for America’s gala attendees about the ongoing national security threat that jihad-coddling Muslim grievance groups and other identity politics agitators in the “Open Borders, Inc.” infrastructure pose to our country’s very existence. But thanks to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Council on American Islamic Relations, Miami Herald, copycat journalists and the Trump Organization, the event was banned from Mar-a-Lago.

Yes, banned.

All it took was a noisy little echo chamber of lazy media lemmings in search of weekend clickbait. On Saturday morning, the Miami Herald published an inflammatory attack masquerading as “breaking news” with the headline:

“Anti-Muslim extremist group says it will host $1,500-a-plate gala at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago.”

Where did the Miami Herald get its characterization that ACT for America was an “extremist group”? From the discredited charlatans at the Southern Poverty Law Center. Miami Herald reporter Nicholas Nehamas admitted to me that he wrote the “story,” padded with an obligatory assist and dutiful quote from SPLC’s Muslim counterparts at CAIR, after receiving an SPLC HateWatch alert titled:

“Anti-Muslim Hate Group to Hold Gala at Mar A Lago.”

Media monkey see. Media monkey do.

Barely two hours later, according to an email I obtained, the Mar-a-Lago catering department informed ACT for America that “we will not be able to host your proposed event” because “as a private Club we strive to ensure that the agenda and subject matter discussed at any event is in line with our Club’s culture.”

Gabriel was not given a chance to defend herself or educate Mar-a-Lago’s cowering bureaucrats about the SPLC’s corrupt culture of manufacturing hate fraud, raising millions off fear-mongering, stashing away gobs of money in offshore accounts and staving off internal complaints of racial and sexual harassment for decades. Nor was I was given a chance to answer any questions about the subject matter of my planned speech, which was going to cover the SPLC and CAIR’s war on immigration enforcement patriots, SPLC’s defamation settlements, and the ongoing litigation against the smear merchants by deplatformed Trump supporters Laura Loomer and Gavin McInnes.

A cascade of copycat hit pieces ensued. The New York Times crowed:

“Mar-a-Lago Won’t Host Anti-Muslim Group’s Gala, Trump Organization Says.”

The Palm Beach Post echoed:

“Trump Organization cancels anti-Muslim group’s event at Mar-a-Lago.”

The Guardian followed:

“Lavish gala hosted by anti-Muslim group canceled at Mar-a-Lago.”

And the Daily Beast bellowed:

“Mar-a-Lago Disinvites Anti-Muslim Group ACT for America to Host Annual Gala at Trump Resort.”

The Trump Organization’s capitulation to Trump-hating speech and thought police thugs has daunting implications for a wide range of politically engaged citizens on the right. If Trump’s family-run companies will swallow the SPLC and CAIR’s defamatory “hate” labels wholesale and throw the president’s most ardent supporters under the bus, what signal does that send to any hotel chain (or local government) about protecting the free speech and peaceable assembly rights of anyone on the center-right?

SPLC’s sweeping hate designations haven’t just targeted Gabriel and me (two conservative women of color, by the way), but also (for starters):

–Black conservative scholar Carol Swain.

–Black Trump administration Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson.

–Muslim reformer Maajid Nawaz.

–Refugee Resettlement Watch blogger and citizen journalist Ann Corcoran.

–Investigative Project on Terrorism founder Steven Emerson.

–Former Reagan official and Center for Security Policy president Frank Gaffney.

–Jewish anti-jihad activist Pamela Geller.

–Former FBI agent and Marine veteran John Guandolo.

–Somali-born ex-Muslim activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

–Renowned historian and author David Horowitz.

–Scholar and Middle East Forum founder Daniel Pipes.

–Palestinian-American ex-jihadist Walid Shoebat.

–Scholar and Jihad Watch founder Robert Spencer.

–Lawyer, Fox News host, LifeZette.com founder and talk radio veteran Laura Ingraham.

–Former prosecutor and judge and Fox News Channel host Jeanine Pirro.

–Author and nationally syndicated columnist Diana West.

–Alliance Defending Freedom.

–The Remembrance Project.

–Phyllis Schlafly’s Eagle Forum.

–American Principles Project.

Christians, Jews, Muslims and atheists. Cops, vets and government officials. Attorneys, doctors, academics, authors, journalists and activists. White, black, brown, multiracial, multiethnic, interfaith and intermarried. Has there ever been a more diverse universe of “white supremacists” on the planet?

But not to worry. While the SPLC and its open borders media handmaidens are busy destroying their enemies, Trump is busy “monitoring” the situation. With friends like these…

Muslim Advocates is a George-Soros funded grievance group. They won’t stop.

Idiotic Environmental Predictions

The Competitive Enterprise Institute has published a new paper, “Wrong Again: 50 Years of Failed Eco-pocalyptic Predictions.” Keep in mind that many of the grossly wrong environmentalist predictions were made by respected scientists and government officials. My question for you is: If you were around at the time, how many government restrictions and taxes would you have urged to avoid the predicted calamity?

As reported in The New York Times (Aug. 1969) Stanford University biologist Dr. Paul Erhlich warned: “The trouble with almost all environmental problems is that by the time we have enough evidence to convince people, you’re dead. We must realize that unless we’re extremely lucky, everybody will disappear in a cloud of blue steam in 20 years.”

In 2000, Dr. David Viner, a senior research scientist at University of East Anglia’s climate research unit, predicted that in a few years winter snowfall would become “a very rare and exciting event. Children just aren’t going to know what snow is.” In 2004, the U.S. Pentagon warned President George W. Bush that major European cities would be beneath rising seas. Britain will be plunged into a Siberian climate by 2020. In 2008, Al Gore predicted that the polar ice cap would be gone in a mere 10 years. A U.S. Department of Energy study led by the U.S. Navy predicted the Arctic Ocean would experience an ice-free summer by 2016.

In May 2014, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius declared during a joint appearance with Secretary of State John Kerry that “we have 500 days to avoid climate chaos.”

Peter Gunter, professor at North Texas State University, predicted in the spring 1970 issue of The Living Wilderness: “Demographers agree almost unanimously on the following grim timetable: by 1975 widespread famines will begin in India; these will spread by 1990 to include all of India, Pakistan, China and the Near East, Africa. By the year 2000, or conceivably sooner, South and Central America will exist under famine conditions. … By the year 2000, thirty years from now, the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America, and Australia, will be in famine.”

Ecologist Kenneth Watt’s 1970 prediction was, “If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000.” He added, “This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”

Mark J. Perry, scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and professor of economics and finance at the University of Michigan’s Flint campus, cites 18 spectacularly wrong predictions made around the time of first Earth Day in 1970. This time it’s not about weather. Harrison Brown, a scientist at the National Academy of Sciences, published a chart in Scientific American that looked at metal reserves and estimated that humanity would run out of copper shortly after 2000. Lead, zinc, tin, gold and silver would be gone before 1990. Kenneth Watt said, “By the year 2000, if present trends continue, we will be using up crude oil at such a rate … that there won’t be any more crude oil.”

There were grossly wild predictions well before the first Earth Day, too. In 1939, the U.S. Department of the Interior predicted that American oil supplies would last for only another 13 years. In 1949, the secretary of the interior said the end of U.S. oil supplies was in sight. Having learned nothing from its earlier erroneous energy claims, in 1974, the U.S. Geological Survey said that the U.S. had only a 10-year supply of natural gas. However, the U.S. Energy Information Administration estimated that as of Jan. 1, 2017, there were about 2,459 trillion cubic feet of dry natural gas in the United States. That’s enough to last us for nearly a century. The United States is the largest producer of natural gas worldwide.

Today’s wild predictions about climate doom are likely to be just as true as yesteryear’s. The major difference is today’s Americans are far more gullible and more likely to spend trillions fighting global warming. And the only result is that we’ll be much poorer and less free.

(Walter E. Williams is a professor of economics at George Mason University.)

CDC: Three STDs At An All-Time High In U.S.

In a report published on Tuesday, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention listed cases of  gonorrhea, chlamydia and syphilis at an all-time high across the United States.

“For the fifth consecutive year, combined cases of gonorrhea, chlamydia and syphilis have risen in the United States, according to a Sexually Transmitted Disease Surveillance Report from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published on Tuesday,” reports CNN. “A rise in the prevalence and incidence of STDs can come with serious public health consequences and concerns, including infertility, drug-resistant gonorrhea and congenital syphilis, which can cause infant death.”

CDC epidemiologist Elizabeth Torrone, who helped author the report, said the combined total of 2.4 million diagnosed infections makes it “the most cases” recorded since the United States began monitoring.

“STDs cause a significant burden to the health care system — both in terms of direct medical costs for treating STDs as well as the personal cost for people who have an STD,” Torrone said. “As the STD epidemic continues to grow in the United States, the direct medical costs and the quality of life lost will just increase as well.”

Dr. Gail Bolan, director of the CDC’s Division of STD Prevention, noted in the report’s foreword that such diseases were on the decline until recently.

“Yet not that long ago, gonorrhea rates were at historic lows, syphilis was close to elimination, and we were able to point to advances in STD prevention,” wrote Bolan. “That progress has since unraveled. The number of reported syphilis cases is climbing after being largely on the decline since 1941, and gonorrhea rates are now increasing. Many young women continue to have undiagnosed chlamydial infections, putting them at risk for infertility.”

Such cases of STDs were notably highest in adolescents and young adults. CNN noted that a possible factor in the rise could possibly stem from “a surge in people getting tested and cases being diagnosed and reported” on top of  a “decline in people using condoms.” The state of Alaska was ranked highest for chlamydia while Mississippi was ranked highest for gonorrhea. Nevada earned the top rank for primary and secondary syphilis. Rates in the District of Columbia for all three diseases were higher than any other state.

While multiple experts have blamed the rise in STD rates on a number of factors, including sexual health education, few note that pre-marital sex with multiple partners as one of the main causes. Few will note the potential impact of abstinence-only education.

According to a 2010 study out of the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Waterloo in Canada, as well as the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research, abstinence-only education works even when it does not have a moral component attached. As reported by NPR, the study showed that when 662 middle schoolers were given abstinence-only education, sexual activity dropped significantly:

The researchers developed a curriculum that was designed to get middle schoolers in the 6th and 7th grades to put off having sex until they were more more mature and could handle the consequences.

There were no lectures. It was an interactive program. The young people had discussions about resisting peer pressure, through role playing and games.

Unlike previous programs it did not define abstinence as delaying sex until marriage.

Two years after completing the program, a survey showed that the abstinence training was effective in getting 67% of the kids to delay having sex. That’s compared to 48% of students in another group who only received basic health information.

Hillary Clinton back at it, deluding herself she can beat Trump ‘again’

Is Hillary Clinton getting even more delusional as she bitterly stews in her post-election juices? She says she’s up for a relectoral rematch with President Trump and thinks it’s obvious she can beat him “again.” It follows her recent remarks claiming Trump was an “illegitimate” president.

Hillary made her remarks in an interview with Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), which was nominally supposed to be about a book about ‘gutsy women’ she wrote with her daughter Chelsea.

“It truly is remarkable how obsessed he remains with me,” Clinton said, laughing out loud. “But this latest tweet is so typical of him. Nothing has been more examined and looked at than my e-mails. We all know that. So he’s either lying or delusional or both … so maybe there does need to be a rematch. Obviously I can beat him again.”

Daily Caller has transcription of additional choice morsels from the interview here.

Here’s the tweet exchange with President Trump that preceded it:

Is she running, or is this just a joke? Probably the best indicator would be her money situation, which isn’t exactly transparent, but there’s plenty else to suggest she is. 

She’s got makeup on, and is well coiffed. She’s got a dark suit on which serves to conceal her weight, particularly since the friendly camera operator angles the shot to minimize. Clinton also may have had some ‘work’ done around her eyes, neck, and jowl-line, making her looks fresher and more youthful than ever.

That’s one indication she might just be getting ready for it.

Here’s another – look at her arch and cute Twitter intro to herself, calculated just to appeal to Millennials and her voting bse:

Her arrogance is all still there.

Now she claims she ‘won’ the election, probably based on the rather questionable reading of her popular vote tally, which in contradiction to the Constitution, she thinks is the criteria for claiming victory.

Left unsaid is that the hard facts on the ground say she didn’t win, and what’s more it was her own fault. She’s the one who ignored the flyover states, failing to go to Wisconsin as her slightly cannier husband Bill warned her to do, and calling half the voting population ‘deplorables’ which kept voters out of her column. She’s the one who stumbled and collapsed through her campaign tour, and then cooked up the lie that her loss was the work of Russia’s President Vladimir Putin.

She also lies about her emails and the problematic nature of just what she got away in setting up her easily hacked illegal private server, which certainly drove some voters away from her, too. The PBS interviewers – and let’s face it, PBS and its viewers are her political base – didn’t pursue that brushoff, nor ask any tough questions, suggesting that their script was all pre-approved fluff. Again, that suggests campaign mode

Now she’s telling Trump, who threw out some very good troll bait to elicit that information, that she’s now tempted to run because Trump is making her.

This is cloud-cuckoo delusion land, cubed. Her own aides had earlier cringed at the thought of another Hillary run and yelled at her not to do it. Well, she apparently doesn’t listen to anyone but herself, so it’s off to the races now.

This is going to be pathetic.

WAYNE ALLYN ROOT: Trump: The Greatest Non-Ukrainian Jobs President Ever!

By Wayne Allyn Root

I have at least 1000 things to write about. I could fill this column for the next 365 days. But I have to scrap them once again. President Trump screws up my plans every time.

That darn Trump economy keeps interfering with my plans. The Trump economy is so good, I have to change the topic of every column back to the booming economy.

Trump did it again. How good is Trump’s economy? Trump’s economy is so good, jobs are booming with such ferocity, the Democrat Party no longer has to depend on Ukrainian gas companies to employ all their sons.

It’s THAT good!

Or didn’t you hear that Paul Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi’s son was also on the Board of a Ukrainian gas company. And Nancy Pelosi appeared in the company’s promotional video. Funny how that works, huh? I’m betting it’s 2 for 1.

It was practically raining Democrat sons in Ukraine. Ukraine is like the “Democrat Child Employment Plan.”

It must be common knowledge for DC Dems- if your kid is a vapid party boy, drunk, coke head, prostitute addict, or a lazy do-nothing, incapable of finding an honest job, just pick up the phone and call Ukraine. They’ll always answer!

Clearly, in Ukraine, they’ll hire any American- as long as your last name is Biden, Pelosi, Clinton or Kerry.

Personally, I’m offended. I was the 2008 Libertarian Vice Presidential nominee. But no one ever offered me a Board position in Ukraine. I wonder why? What’s wrong with my resume?

Maybe it’s because I’m the founder of AARP- “Americans Against Rotten Politicians.”

Maybe it’s because I campaigned for limited government, for corrupt politicians to be indicted, for all politicians to be term limited, for more power to the American people. Could that be it?

Or maybe it’s because I’m a S.O.B. (son of a butcher). And neither my mommy nor daddy controls a $4 trillion US budget? I’m betting that’s it.

But I digress. I have to get back to the topic of the Trump economy. Trump never leaves me any choice.

The poor Democrats tried so hard to talk America into a recession. They preached doom and gloom. They reminded me of Freddie Krueger in “Nightmare on Elm Street.” They wanted us all scared, depressed, seeing visions of our own death and doom.

Oops. Another epic fail. No one listened.

Try as Democrats may, you can’t keep Trump down. Lower taxes, less regulations, and a pro-business attitude just keep beating the Democrats’ brains in.

Jobs numbers were released on Friday morning. Unemployment hit a brand new 50-year low in September. The national unemployment rate is 3.5%. Amazing.

We added 136,000 new jobs in September. Which is good, but not remarkable. You know why? Experts say we are at full employment. There is nowhere else to go. We can’t create any more jobs, because pretty much everyone who wants a job, already has one.

The jobless rate for Hispanics hit the lowest number in history- again. The jobless rate for blacks stayed at the lowest in history.

And the previous two months (July and August) saw jobs numbers revised higher. We just added an extra 45,000 jobs over the summer.

Trump has produced over 6.3 million new jobs in his first 30 months as president. At the exact same time of his presidency, Obama lost 2.5 million jobs. Add it up. Trump is almost nine million jobs better than Obama.

9 million. What a lesson for the electorate.

If you’re the son or daughter of a powerful Democrat, Ukraine has a great job for you.

But if you’re black or Hispanic, and your parents don’t control a $4 trillion budget, and you want a job in the USA, Trump is your man.

Bravo President Trump. You are the greatest non-Ukrainian jobs president ever!

Levin: Flashback to 1984 Ted Kennedy: ‘This was a major effort to get the Soviet Union to interfere in our election’

Friday night on the radio, LevinTV host Mark Levin spoke with presidential historian Paul Kengor about a grossly overlooked incident in which a prominent politician sought election help from a dangerous foreign enemy.

The U.S. politician was Democratic Senator Ted Kennedy, the foreign power was the Soviet Union, and the election was the 1984 presidential race.

According to a 1983 KGB document, which wasn’t reported until years later in 1992, a friend of Kennedy’s reached out to the Kremlin to help the Soviets deal with Ronald Reagan in exchange for assistance undermining the president in the upcoming 1984 election.

The memo lists a number of ways that Reagan’s chances for re-election might have been weakened and outlines a number of proposals such as Kennedy meeting with Soviet officials in Moscow, those officials meeting with Kennedy in the United States, and others.

Naturally, the document’s discovery was largely ignored by the American media.

“This was a major effort to get the Soviet Union to interfere in our election,” Levin said.

“Yeah, I think it’s fair to characterize it that way,” Kengor responded.

Kengor then went on to compare the Kennedy-KGB memo to the current debate over President Trump, the Ukrainian government, former Vice President Joe Biden, and his son, Hunter:

“Imagine if Ronald Reagan knew about this memo, Mark, right, in 1984, right? After Ted Kennedy’s shenanigans. And he knows that Kennedy is considering a challenge to Reagan in 1984. And imagine Reagan’s frustration if he would have known that no one in the media cared to even ask Kennedy about this, right? Imagine what Reagan’s frustration would be like. Imagine the temptation of Reagan to try to do what he would be able to do or his staff could do to try to expose what Kennedy did, knowing that no one in the liberal media was going to expose it or even bother to ever report on it.

“And then if Reagan would have done so, or someone in his staff would have tried to call attention to it, Reagan would have been accused by the liberal media of abusing his power, because he’d be facing a possible presidential campaign challenge by Ted Kennedy in 1984. And I think that’s what Donald Trump is facing with Joe Biden.

“Trump wants the liberal media to do its job and expose how Biden abused power, knowing that the liberal media won’t do it, so Trump knows that he has to try to expose it himself.”
