How much more financial plundering can Americans endure before America is declared an outright Oligarchy and the middle class declared dead?

The Trump Administration has aggressively teamed up with Big Tech billionaires to diversify their fortunes into “underserved areas” by allowing tax deferment on realized capital gains derived from liquidation of their core investments. This is a massive Public-Private Partnership operation that could push as much as $6 trillion of “unlocked capital” into areas that would be turned upside down, and worse, inundated with Smart City technology designed to create a data extraction extravaganza for years to come.

In short, this is an operation of Big Tech, for Big Tech and by Big Tech, but President Trump has aided and abetted their efforts to manipulate government rules for their own self-interest. Undesired consequences will most certainly follow.

The abrupt termination of Israel’s 21^st Parliament with new elections being called for 17 September has seen the New York Times claiming that Israel has been plunged into unprecedented political chaos.

A more sober assessment—based on comparing Israel’s 2015 election results with the April 2019 results—provides a different picture—in which Prime Minister Netanyahu will be returned once again as Israel’s next Prime Minister.

“The Court declines to take sides in this fight between the House and the President.”

If more judges would think as Judge Trevor McFadden wrote yesterday in a memorandum denying House Democrats’ standing to sue Trump’s border wall, we’d have a semblance of a republic left.

Yesterday, in direct contradiction of a California judge’s ruling last week, Judge Trevor McFadden of the U.S. District Court of the District of Columbia ruled that House Democrats have no standing to sue the Trump administration over using defense funding for a border wall. He did not write on the merits of whether the president interpreted the statutes correctly or not. That does not matter. The judiciary does not stand above the other two branches and is not the final arbiter of political disputes. It decides cases or controversies and grants relief to specific plaintiffs with legitimate standing before a court. In this case, “the Constitution grants the House no standing to litigate these claims,” according to Judge McFadden.

In the 24-page ruling in U.S. House of Representatives v. Steven Mnuchin, McFadden noted that more broadly, “Intervening in a contest between the House and President over the border wall would entangle the Court ‘in a power contest nearly at the height of its political tension’ and would ‘risk damaging the public confidence that is vital to the functioning of the Judicial Branch.’”

What a refreshing change from what we’ve grown accustomed to seeing in the courts. Rather than twisting Marbury vs. Madison to elevate the role of the judiciary to that of a god, as many other judges mistakenly do, McFadden rightfully noted that Marbury limited the role of judicial review “to decide on the rights of individuals, not to enquire how the executive, or executive officers, perform duties in which they have a discretion.”

So what happens to the competing injunction of Judge Haywood Gilliam of the Northern District of California? Last week, he not only gave standing to Democrats to sue, but downright pretended like he has the power to stop Trump from constructing a wall in parts of Arizona and New Mexico. Rather than simply ignoring this toothless injunction, which violates separation of powers, the administration begged the judge to “allow” it to continue the construction pending the appeals process, a request he summarily denied.

This should all change with Judge McFadden’s ruling. It’s time for Trump to set the precedent that “heads we win, tails you lose” is not a legitimate judicial process. Until now, especially during the travel ban case, the Trump administration went along with the point that Democrats can forum-shop for the most liberal districts on a broad national question and shut down the policy, even if judges elsewhere side with the administration. Under this erroneous practice, if 93 district courts were to toss out a lawsuit lodged against an administrative policy, but one takes the case and issues an injunction, prevailing legal theory acts as if there is some sort of extra-constitutional veto on the policy or law. That is simply not the case.

Trump should point to McFadden’s decision and his own separate branch of government as rationale for pushing back against Haywood Gilliam’s order. Democrats were also engaging in forum-shopping by going to the D.C. district along with the northern district of California. Democrat judges have an overwhelming majority on this panel (11-4), just like they do in the San Francisco court. Yet they struck out and got a Trump appointee. Why should the San Francisco judge rule the day when he is not even in a border district? At least the D.C. court naturally has more jurisdiction, because that is the go-to court for most controversies related to executive branch decisions.

The president can use this auspicious moment to delegitimize forum-shopping vetoes. The lawyers in the administration were counting on the Supreme Court to rein in these wayward California judges, but this is clearly not happening. We are nearly one year into this border crisis created by a single district judge, yet the Supreme Court will not act on catch-and-release. Just yesterday, the high court denied the government’s expedited motion for appeal in the case of a lower court judge making DACA the law of the land. Seventeen months after such a harmful and radical opinion, the Supreme Court is allowing lawlessness to pervade the foundation of our sovereignty.

As a separate branch of government, with the power to defend our nation’s border vested in the president, not the courts, the president must begin pushing back. There is no better case with which to launch that campaign, now that he has one robed omnipotent on his side.

Wednesday at the 75th D-Day Anniversary event in Portsmouth, President Trump read an excerpt from the prayer President Franklin Roosevelt delivered to the nation on the radio on the evening of D-Day invasion in 1944.

Queen Elizabeth also spoke at the anniversary ceremony today.

In his radio address, Roosevelt spoke to the nation for the first time about the Normandy Invasion.

President Trup in Portsmouth:

Here is the full prayer by FDR on D-Day on June 6, 1944.

Text of Radio Address – Prayer on D-Day, June 6, 1944:
“My fellow Americans: Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our allies were crossing the Channel in another and greater operation. It has come to pass with success thus far.

And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join with me in prayer:

Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity.

Lead them straight and true; give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith.

They will need Thy blessings. Their road will be long and hard. For the enemy is strong. He may hurl back our forces. Success may not come with rushing speed, but we shall return again and again; and we know that by Thy grace, and by the righteousness of our cause, our sons will triumph.

They will be sore tried, by night and by day, without rest-until the victory is won. The darkness will be rent by noise and flame. Men’s souls will be shaken with the violences of war.

For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace. They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate. They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and good will among all Thy people. They yearn but for the end of battle, for their return to the haven of home.

Some will never return. Embrace these, Father, and receive them, Thy heroic servants, into Thy kingdom.

And for us at home — fathers, mothers, children, wives, sisters, and brothers of brave men overseas — whose thoughts and prayers are ever with them–help us, Almighty God, to rededicate ourselves in renewed faith in Thee in this hour of great sacrifice.

Many people have urged that I call the Nation into a single day of special prayer. But because the road is long and the desire is great, I ask that our people devote themselves in a continuance of prayer. As we rise to each new day, and again when each day is spent, let words of prayer be on our lips, invoking Thy help to our efforts.

Give us strength, too — strength in our daily tasks, to redouble the contributions we make in the physical and the material support of our armed forces.

And let our hearts be stout, to wait out the long travail, to bear sorrows that may come, to impart our courage unto our sons wheresoever they may be.

And, O Lord, give us Faith. Give us Faith in Thee; Faith in our sons; Faith in each other; Faith in our united crusade. Let not the keenness of our spirit ever be dulled. Let not the impacts of temporary events, of temporal matters of but fleeting moment let not these deter us in our unconquerable purpose.

With Thy blessing, we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy. Help us to conquer the apostles of greed and racial arrogancies. Lead us to the saving of our country, and with our sister Nations into a world unity that will spell a sure peace a peace invulnerable to the schemings of unworthy men. And a peace that will let all of men live in freedom, reaping the just rewards of their honest toil.

Thy will be done, Almighty God.

Amen.”

If it weren’t for bad luck, CNN would have no luck at all — especially when it comes to ratings during the network’s vitally important primetime schedule. In May, the channel lost 16 percent of its weekday evening audience from the previous month, falling to just 761,000 viewers and winding up dead last among such cable networks as liberal rival MSNBC and the dominant Fox News Channel.

America is currently facing a massive border crisis, and House Democrats, along with seven Republicans, responded to it Tuesday evening by voting to pass an amnesty bill with absolutely no border security money or asylum system reforms. The final vote was 237-187.

H.R. 6, or the the “American Dream and Promise Act of 2019” would extend amnesty to at least 2.5 million illegal immigrants who were either brought to the U.S. as minors or have been on “Temporary Protected Status.” That number is well beyond the estimated 700,000-800,000 total DACA recipients. This would take the form of green card status with a path to citizenship.

“The Dream, and now Dream and Promise Act, is urgent for our country,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said at the bill’s introduction in March, before trying to sell the legislation under a few lines from a Ronald Reagan speech.

However, critics point out that the legislation would do absolutely nothing to address the border enforcement problems and legal loopholes that created the current crisis in the first place.

Conservative Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, took to social media on Tuesday to say the bill would cost the American taxpayer $34.6 billion, according to the Congressional Budget Office, while providing “$0 (ZERO) dollars for border security” and no asylum reforms.

“What is it?” Roy pondered: “A complete dereliction of our constitutional duty to #SecureTheBorder and address the ongoing humanitarian crisis at our southern border.”

What does it do? Costs $34.6 billion, according to @USCBO, while providing $0 (ZERO) dollars for border security. It does not close immigration loopholes, #FixOurBrokenAsylum laws, and constitutes a 2.7 million+ amnesty deal.

— Rep. Chip Roy (@RepChipRoy) June 4, 2019

According to a summary sheet from House Judiciary Committee Republicans, the total cost of the bill comes from the combined estimated costs of the two bills that make up the legislation in its current form. The summary goes on to explain that “time constraints” kept the CBO from being able to calculate the potential public cost of aliens who could seek citizenship by violating the terms of their visas and then become eligible for green cards: “That cost is unknown.”

Other critics say that the bill’s barriers against applicants with criminal histories are too low. Briefing materials about the bill from the office of Republican Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., say that “applicants with several misdemeanor convictions can obtain a green card, even if the misdemeanors were violent and resulted in death or bodily injury.”

The bill’s language bars illegal immigrants who have been convicted of a felony or three separate misdemeanors involving total jail time over 90 days from getting green cards. It also disqualifies those who have been convicted of a “crime of moral turpitude” and those convicted of domestic violence.

Furthermore, the bill bars the DHS from using state and federal gang databases as the determining factor in disqualifying potential beneficiaries.

“The Democrats are making us consider a bill that will worsen — give a green light — to the border crisis, incentivizing more people to cross our borders illegally in hopes of getting a piece of the amnesty pie,” said House Judiciary ranking member Doug Collins, R-Ga., on the House floor Tuesday. “No doubt at this very minute, the smuggling cartels are getting the word out. … Congress is going to legalize millions, just get there.”

Meanwhile, the acting head of the Department of Homeland Security says that the current level of migrants in custody is “beyond sustainable capacity,” while this year has seen record levels of border apprehensions.

The unhinged Democrat led House has invited one of the key participants in the government who helped remove Richard Nixon from office in the 1970’s, John Dean, to speak before Congress.

Dean is a far left NeverTrumper who was a participant in the silent Deep State coup to remove Nixon decades ago. Yeah, this will go over really well…

The Democrat led House of Representatives has done nothing since January when they took over the House.  Now they think that far-left CNN hack John Dean can talk the country into a Trump impeachment.  Far left Trump hating CNBC reported –

The House Judiciary Committee on Monday announced a “series of hearings” related to special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia report, beginning with a June 10 hearing featuring President Richard Nixon’s former White House counsel, John Dean.

The Democrat-led committee revealed its new schedule as calls to impeach President Donald Trump grew louder from a growing list of Democratic lawmakers and presidential candidates.

The hearing with Dean, titled “Lessons from the Mueller Report: Presidential Obstruction and Other Crimes,” was announced less than a week after Mueller, in his first public remarks since becoming special counsel in May 2017, said that he would not go beyond the details in his 448-page report if he is forced to testify before Congress.

Dean has been vocal on CNN demeaning and slandering President Trump.  If this is all the Democrats have to impeach Trump (which it may very well be) then there is no legal cause to impeach this great American President and the Dems are more ignorant than is commonly believed.

Hannity showed videos of crazy Dean on CNN last night –

Dean is no stranger to Deep State coups like the one attempted against President Trump.

In the 1970’s Dean was a participant in the attempt to remove Richard Nixon from the Presidency.  This was all detailed in the book “Silent Coup: The Removal of the President” which discussed Dean’s actions in the coup that led to Nixon’s demise.  The authors of this book were on CSPAN in 1991 to talk about their research covered in their book –

…the authors said that White House aide John Dean was responsible for the cover-up of the 1973 Watergate break-in, that General Alexander Haig was attempting to unseat President Nixon, and that General Haig was also “Deep Throat.”

Some other shocking notes from the CSPAN interview about Watergate include:

John Dean Pulled Off a Hoax –

Because John Dean pulled off an incredible hoax. He pulled it off on the Watergate Committee and he pulled it off on the courts and he pulled it off on the American people, and in a sense he erased the election. If you take John Dean out of the story, it doesn’t matter what Woodward and Haig do because it will be a series of leaks that will mean nothing. There’s no Watergate. It will be traditional Washington leaks that may nick the president a little bit, but it’s not going to drive him out of office. It is the John Dean story that is just absolutely the most important story in the book.

The Deep State Included Members of the Military –

Our principal findings are that Richard Nixon came into the office intending to run a secret government, cut out the Joint Chiefs of Staff, among others. This caused an angry reaction which caused the military spy ring which Alexander Haig, long considered loyal to Nixon, was involved in. Haig had a secret relationship with Bob Woodward that continued through Watergate, leaked information to Woodward in an effort to tarnish Nixon because of distress over the foreign policy. A separate leg of our story is John Dean. Working independently, a young ambitious guy running a rogue intelligence operation in the White House ordered a break-in at the Democratic National Committee and when it failed, covered it up and tricked the president, who never bothered to find out the truth, into the coverup as well.

Howard Kurtz was used to defame the book Silent Coup –

The first shot out of the box they used their so-called media critic, Howard Kurtz. The idea was to poison the well. They put it in the Style section, they trashed the book, and then they sent it to all the wire services that they service around the country in order to poison the well. That was the whole purpose of that.

This leads us to today –

G. Gordon Liddy supported the central claims of Silent Coup, a book that says that John Dean was responsible for the Watergate break-in & advised Nixon to obstruct. Dean was a plant in the 1st Dem coup d’etat. They tried the same method on Trump.

— TraderMoe (@Trader_Moe) May 20, 2019

It looks like CNN’s John Dean is well aware of how a Deep State coup works.  The Democrat’s Nadler is wanting him to recreate his crimes but this time against President Trump.
