Revealed: President Trump Presided Over the Largest Manufacturing Boom in a First Term Since the 1970s By Breitbart, October 24, 2020 The following is an excerpt from 50 Things They Don’t Want You to Know About Trump, the new book by Breitbart News Entertainment Editor Jerome Hudson. 50 Things They Don’t Want You to Know About Trump is due out October 27 and available for purchase here. The excerpt is from pages 254-258. President Donald Trump constantly committed to reviving American industry during his 2016 presidential campaign, promising that he’d bring back jobs that the country lost due to unfair trade deals. His loud appeals to blue-collar laborers went a long way toward putting him in the White House, even though they garnered ceaseless skepticism from the establishment media, mainstream economists, and his predecessor. New York Times columnist Paul Krugman said weeks after Trump’s election that the president would never bring back lost manufacturing jobs. Krugman declared that “nothing policy can do will bring back those lost jobs. The service sector is the future of work; but nobody wants to hear it.” At a PBS town hall in June 2016, former President Barack Obama poured cold water on Trump’s promise to restore a manufacturing jobs sector that’d been slowly picked apart for decades. Obama contended that decades of America’s diminished dominance in manufacturing was proof of a larger global trend. “Well, how exactly are you going to do that?” Obama asked rhetorically. “What exactly are you going to do? There’s no answer to it. He just says, ‘Well, I’m going to negotiate a better deal.’ Well, what, how exactly are you going to negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually the answer is, he doesn’t have an answer.” It was Barack Obama who oversaw a stagnant and declining manufacturing sector during his eight years in office. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Obama’s economy produced less than 100,000 manufacturing jobs across the nation during his last two years in office. In contrast to Obama, manufacturing jobs started soaring shortly after Trump assumed office in January 2017. Since the Trump Administration’s red-tape–cutting policies and the tax cut and reform law passed in December 2017, manufacturers added 467,000 jobs, more than six times the 73,000 manufacturing jobs added in Obama’s last two years. Looking at Trump’s first two years, the revised BLS data shows that more than two manufacturing jobs were added for every one job added in government at the federal, state, and local level. In contrast, under Obama, almost five government jobs were added for every one manufacturing job. Since President Trump took office in January 2017, employment in manufacturing has increased 3.7 percent. Over the same period during the last two years under President Obama, manufacturing payrolls grew by only 0.6 percent. Justin Haskins, the editorial director and a research fellow at the Heartland Institute, noted in an op-ed in The Hill in January 2020 that Democratic lawmakers fundamentally misunderstand job creation. Instead, Haskins argues that what’s necessary for the economy to flourish is to allow business owners to operate with minimal government interference. “What Obama and others in the Democratic Party didn’t understand—and judging by the rhetoric coming from the current batch of presidential candidates, still don’t understand—is that you don’t need a magic wand to grow the economy,” Haskins wrote. “All that is required are policies that give individuals and businesses more power to operate freely and that limit efforts by inept, greedy government bureaucrats in Washington to meddle and manipulate markets they don’t fully understand.”

pamelagellerreport--2020-10-25--Multiple Medical Journals Refuse To Run Results of LARGEST MASK STUDY

The researchers behind a large and unique Danish study on the effect of wearing a mask are having great difficulties in getting their research results published .
“ One of the participating professors in the study admits that the still secret research result can be perceived as ‘ controversial.
’ ” The study will be published “ as soon as a journal is brave enough.

Health officials around the world initially argued strongly against their use , claiming that studies over the years had demonstrated that masks were ineffective at stopping respiratory viruses and unnecessary for the current pandemic .

Danish study has reportedly been ready for months In spite of their now-ubiquitous presence in most of the Western world today , relatively little evidence exists to support widespread use of face-masking to prevent the spread of respiratory disease .
A 2019 World Health Organization review of pandemic mitigation measures , for instance , found “ no evidence ” that face coverings helped to stop the spread of influenza .
Whether or not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ COVID-19 is unknown ; the disease ’ s relatively recent emergence means that scientific studies on it are in short supply .
Studies can take many month to secure funding , develop methodologies , carry out experiments , interpret the findings , write a research paper and get it peer-reviewed and published .
To bridge that gap , a team of Danish scientists earlier this year sought to carry out a major randomized controlled trial study to determine how effective masks might be at stopping COVID transmission .

The study concluded in June .
Yet the Copenhagen newspaper Berlingske reported this week that it has been rejected by at least three elite medical journals so far — the Lancet , the New England Journal of Medicine , and JAMA , the Journal of the American Medical Association .
“ They all said no , ” Christian Torp-Pederson , one of the study ’ s researchers , told the Danish @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the study ’ s scientists “ can not start discussing what [ the journals ] are dissatisfied with , because in that case we must also explain what the study showed , and we do not want to discuss that until it is published.

Yet there have been indications that the study may be ruffling feathers among medical officials and researchers , with some of the study ’ s directors suggesting , cryptically , that its results may run against the grain of current public orthodoxy on mask usage .
Responding to a query last week about when the study will be published , one of its researchers — University of Copenhagen infectious disease Professor Thomas Benfield — replied : “ As soon as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ paper.
” Benfield in a later interview with Berlingske warned against taking that quote “ out of context , ” stating : “ The article is being reviewed by a respected journal.
” Benfield confirmed to Just the News that the study “ is going through peer review , ” and he called the process “ not unusual.

” Another one of the study ’ s authors , Henrik Ullum , wrote on Twitter this week that the study ’ s researchers are “ very unhappy about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We never anticipated this delay , ” he continued , adding : “ The peer review process is important to secure correct scientific conclusions for this sensitive research question.
” Supporters say masks can save tens of thousands of lives Neither Torp-Pedersen nor Ullum responded to queries from Just the News about the study and its delay .
None of the three journals that allegedly rejected it , meanwhile , were willing to comment on the matter either .

” JAMA did not respond to queries .
Last month , several academics out of Harvard , Stanford and George Washington University published a letter critical of the Danish study ’ s methodology .
Providing what might be interpreted as further evidence that the study ’ s results challenge the efficacy of masking , these critics argued that inherent design flaws @ @ @ @ @ @ @ factors within both the control and study groups — could unfairly skew the results in favor of non-mask usage .
The study “ poses a serious risk of mistranslation ” due to concerns that “ null or too-small effects will be misinterpreted to mean that masks are ineffective , ” the writers stated .
The academics warned policy-makers against “ interpreting the results of this trial as being anything other than artifacts of weak design.
” Proponents of masks have argued that widespread usage of face coverings will significantly reduce COVID-19 caseloads and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation said in a paper published this week that “ universal mask use ” could prevent an additional 129,574 deaths throughout the United States by February .
Conversely , numerous countries across the world that have mandated the use of face masks in public have recently seen infection rates soar .
Both Germany and Spain , for instance , have had mask mandates in place for months , yet both countries have seen recent sharp resurgences in new COVID-19 cases over the last several weeks .

A major study out of Denmark that sought to examine the efficacy of face masks at limiting the spread of COVID-19 has reportedly been rejected by multiple academic journals amid hints that the study found face coverings are not effective in protecting individuals from the coronavirus.
Masks have been among the most persistent and controversial flashpoints of the COVID-19 epidemic for months. Health officials around the world initially argued strongly against their use, claiming that studies over the years had demonstrated that masks were ineffective at stopping respiratory viruses and unnecessary for the current pandemic.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, for example, told CBS’ “60 Minutes” in March: “Right now, in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks.”
Growing concerns over a purportedly high rate of asymptomatic spread of COVID-19 led many of those same officials, including Fauci, to reverse their recommendations, urging people to wear masks whenever they go out in public.
Reflecting the new public sentiment on masks, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urges Americans to “wear masks in public settings, like on public and mass transportation, at events and gatherings, and anywhere they will be around other people.”
Mandates by governors and national leaders over the past several months have further enforced those conclusions, with many public leaders issuing orders for citizens to don face coverings while in grocery stores, on public transport, and even in open outdoor areas such as public parks.
Danish study has reportedly been ready for months
In spite of their now-ubiquitous presence in most of the Western world today, relatively little evidence exists to support widespread use of face-masking to prevent the spread of respiratory disease. A 2019 World Health Organization review of pandemic mitigation measures, for instance, found “no evidence” that face coverings helped to stop the spread of influenza.
Whether or not studies on influenza transmission can apply to COVID-19 is unknown; the disease’s relatively recent emergence means that scientific studies on it are in short supply. Studies can take many month to secure funding, develop methodologies, carry out experiments, interpret the findings, write a research paper and get it peer-reviewed and published.
To bridge that gap, a team of Danish scientists earlier this year sought to carry out a major randomized controlled trial study to determine how effective masks might be at stopping COVID transmission. The study, begun in April, involved around 6,000 Danish citizens, half of whom wore face coverings during “normal behavior” and the other half of whom went without them.
The study concluded in June. Yet the Copenhagen newspaper Berlingske reported this week that it has been rejected by at least three elite medical journals so far — the Lancet, the New England Journal of Medicine, and JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association.
“They all said no,” Christian Torp-Pederson, one of the study’s researchers, told the Danish newspaper this week. He added that the study’s scientists “cannot start discussing what [the journals] are dissatisfied with, because in that case we must also explain what the study showed, and we do not want to discuss that until it is published.”
Study will be published ‘as soon as a journal is brave enough’
The paper’s lack of publication thus far is not, on its face, unheard of. Peer review — the process by which independent experts analyze, criticize and edit scientific papers prior to publication in official journals — can take several months or more from start to finish.
Yet there have been indications that the study may be ruffling feathers among medical officials and researchers, with some of the study’s directors suggesting, cryptically, that its results may run against the grain of current public orthodoxy on mask usage.

Benfield in a later interview with Berlingske warned against taking that quote “out of context,” stating: “The article is being reviewed by a respected journal.”
Benfield confirmed to Just the News that the study “is going through peer review,” and he called the process “not unusual.”
Another one of the study’s authors, Christian Torp-Pedersen, told the Copenhagen newspaper that he “might also have dared to go as far as Benfield” regarding Benfield’s response. Asked by the paper if the study’s results could be considered “controversial,” he said: “That’s how I want to interpret it.”
Questioned by the paper further on whether or not the study might demonstrate “no significant effect of mask use,” he replied: “I think that’s a very relevant question you are asking.”
Another one of the study’s authors, Henrik Ullum, wrote on Twitter this week that the study’s researchers are “very unhappy about the delay of our study.”

The president has sole authority over foreign policy , and at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Here Are 11 of Joe Biden’s Biggest Debate Lies
BY John Nolte: Breitbart, October 23, 2020;
President Trump trounced Joe Biden during their final debate Thursday night in Tennessee. It wasn’t even close. Biden was looking at his watch because he couldn’t wait to get the hell out of the ring
[…]
One more observation before we get to China Joe’s lies.
Last night, Trump was forced to defend his record, to explain it… And because he has a very good record as president, he was able to.
Because Joe Biden has a terrible record, he was forced to lie… To tell 11 bald-faced whoppers, and here they are… All of Biden’s quotes below come directly from last night’s debate. [emphasis mine throughout]
????????♀ Obamacare disappeared my plan. We were uninsured for years — until @realDonaldTrump. I had no insurance and I had to pay a fine. It was DISASTROUS. Many people I know lost their insurance. There are tens of millions of Obamacare victims ….. https://t.co/Xmi7s8eukH — Geller Report (@PamelaGeller) October 23, 2020
No One Lost Their Insurance Under ObamaCare
BIDEN: “That’s why I did not — not one single person, private insurance, would lose their insurance under my plan, nor did they under Obamacare. They did not lose their insurance, unless they chose they wanted to go to something else.”
FACT: Up to six million people lost their private health insurance plan after Obamacare became the law of the land, and the reason people lost their private health insurance is the most immoral things about Obamacare… Obamacare outlawed — actually made it illegal, for private insurance to offer private plans that did not live up to Obamacare’s lofty and ridiculous standards. Essentially, Obamacare demands we all, each and every one of us, pay for Cadillac plans that include all kinds of things we don’t need. So if, for instance, you had a reasonably priced catastrophic plan with a high deductible — and these are perfect plans for the healthy — Obamacare outlawed them.
So many people lost their private plans that even the Obama-loving media were forced to declare Obama’s promise that “no one would lose their insurance or doctor” the Lie of the Year.
America was Cozy with Hitler
BIDEN: “We had a good relationship with Hitler before he in fact invaded Europe, the rest of Europe.”
FACT: This is such a ludicrous lie it’s hardly worth debunking. Franklin Roosevelt was president during Hitler’s rise. Roosevelt became president in 1932. Hitler became Germany’s chancellor in 1934. The president has sole authority over foreign policy, and at no time was Roosevelt fooled by Hitler. He certainly tried to stop and stay out of the European war, but Hitler’s aggression towards our allies and Hitler’s own hatred of America… This is such a stupid lie.
The reason Biden told this lie is what’s most illuminating. Biden is embarrassed that Trump has been able to do something Obama and Biden could not… Get North Korea to stop rattling its war sabers and firing off missiles.
Before Trump took office, North Korea (like ISIS) was on everyone’s mind. Thanks to Trump’s handling of North Korea (and ISIS), we hardly think about it anymore.
I Never Opposed Fracking
BIDEN: “I have never said I oppose fracking.”
FACT: Biden spent the entire primary opposing fracking . There’s a ton of video of it. Here’s a taste:
I Didn’t Oppose Trump’s China Travel Ban
BIDEN: “I talked about his xenophobia in a different context. It wasn’t about closing the border to Chinese coming to the United States.”
FACT: Here are Biden’s own tweets attacking the China travel ban as xenophobic:
Illegal Aliens Show Up For Asylum Hearings After Being Caught and Released
BIDEN: “The catch and release, you know what he’s talking about there? If in fact, you had family, came across, they’re arrested. They, in fact, were given a date to show up for their hearing. They were released. And guess what, they showed up for the hearing. ”
FACT: Catch and release is America’s gobsmackingly stupid policy of catching illegal aliens in our country and then releasing them back into our country with a notice to show up for an asylum hearing. Yes, we release illegals into our own country after we have caught them. These illegals have already broken the law, but we still release them and tell them to come to a court proceeding, which they will almost certainly lose, which means they will be deported. In other words, they have no incentive to show up.
Through a number of maneuvers I don’t want to get bogged down in here, Trump has made amazing strides in putting an end to catch and release. Biden would reinstate it, and in order to justify it, he’s falsely claiming illegals dutifully show up for their asylum hearings. Well, they don’t. Close to 90 percent do not.
What’s more, it only makes sense that they don’t. Why would they? If they were legitimate asylum seekers, they would have asked for asylum in a legal fashion. These are illegals who snuck in and only ask for asylum after they’re caught.
Raising the Minimum Wage Does Not Hurt Anyone
BIDEN: “There is no evidence that when you raise the minimum wage, business has gone out of business. That is simply not true.”
FACT: Biden wants to more than double the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour, another disastrous one-size-fits-all idea. And now he’s claiming that forcing companies to double payroll expenses (this also increases taxes paid by employers) won’t hurt businesses. He further claims it never has.
The idea that mandating a raise in the minimum wage hurts businesses and workers is not even controversial . Everyone knows it does.
What Trump said is exactly right. This should be left to the states. A $15 minimum wage might make sense in blue states with their unnecessarily high cost of living, but South Dakota and Alabama sure don’t need it.
No One Brought Up Biden’s Troubling Ukraine Conflicts of Interest During Impeachment
BIDEN: “Nothing was unethical. Here’s what the deal, with regard to Ukraine, we had this whole question about whether or not because he was on the board. I later learned of Burisma, a company that somehow, I had done something wrong. Yet, every single, solitary person when he was going through his impeachment testifying under oath who worked for him said I did my job impeccably. I carried out U.S. policy. Not one single solitary thing was out of line. Not a single thing. Number one.”
FACT: Again, we have the video tape proving this is a lie . A whole lot of people involved with impeachment were concerned with Hunter Biden looting Ukraine while his dad, the vice president, was the Obama administration’s point person there.
Trump Never Told Putin to Stop Meddling in American Elections
BIDEN: “And to the best of my knowledge, I don’t think the President said anything to Putin about [election meddling].”
FACT: Oh, isn’t China Joe, whose family received $3.5 million from the former mayor of Moscow, precious when he says to the “best of my knowledge.” He knows damn well Trump has told Putin to butt out — plenty of times
Hunter’s Emails are Part of a “Russian Plan”
BIDEN: “Look, there are 50 former National Intelligence folks who said that what this, he’s accusing me of is a Russian plan. They have said that this has all the characteristics– four– five former heads of the CIA, both parties, say what he’s saying is a bunch of garbage.”
FACT: The evidence that the Hunter Biden emails exposing Joe Biden as the head of a crime family trading off his role as vice president to get rich continue to be verified — and done so on-the-record , including pollster Frank Luntz
Most importantly, neither Joe Biden nor Hunter Biden nor the Biden campaign have said the emails are not real.
Trump Refused to Take ‘Responsibility’ for the Coronavirus
BIDEN: “220,000 Americans dead. If you hear nothing else I say tonight, hear this. Anyone who’s responsible for not taking control — in fact, not saying, I take no responsibility, initially — anyone who is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America.”
FACT: Because he’s old and growing senile, Biden garbled this with a double negative, but Biden is claiming Trump refused to take any responsibility for the coronavirus, when the only thing Trump claimed he was not responsible for was the early testing failures, and Trump was in no way responsible for the early testing failures. Trump was VERY specific on this point.
Trump Has Alienated ‘All’ Our Allies
BIDEN: “[H]e pokes his finger in the eye of all our friends, all of our allies.”
FACT: What in the world is Biden even talking about here? Our relationship with Israel has never been better. He’s convinced Mexico and other countries to make great strides in slowing down illegal immigration. Peace is breaking out all over the Middle East. I could go on and on…

BIDEN PLEDGES TO ROLL BACK TRUMP’S TAX CUTS: ‘A LOT OF YOU MAY NOT LIKE THAT’
Biden’s plan to overhaul 401(k) tax breaks could force some companies to cut retirement benefits
‘Tens of millions of people’ could lose their plans as a result of the proposed change, one industry expert estimated
By: FOX News, October 14, 2020:
A frequently overlooked part of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s platform would upend the traditional tax preferences of retirement accounts like 401(k) plans — a change that industry experts warned could force some small companies to cut those benefits.
Biden has vowed to convert the current deductibility of traditional retirement contributions into matching refundable credits for 401(k)s, IRAs and others.
The proposal from the former vice president is intended to level the playing field of tax deferral in traditional retirement accounts, with the intent of boosting saving among low-income earners. But industry experts cautioned that by reducing the benefits that higher earners receive, the Biden campaign may have increased the likelihood of businesses abandoning those retirement benefits altogether.
“If you take the tax deduction away and reduce the tax benefit, without also addressing the nondiscrimination rules, you’ve blown up the bargain,” Brian Graff, the CEO of the American Retirement Association, told FOX Business.
That’s because employers who make contributions to a 401(k) must offer that same benefit to their workers. Under Biden’s plan, business owners would have to reduce their own tax benefit, while continuing to contribute on behalf of their employees, which is expensive, particularly during a pandemic.
Some of those bosses — traditionally the higher-income earners — may lack the incentive to offer those retirement accounts if their tax benefit is slashed, Graff said.
“When you mess up that bargain, you’re disincentivizing those small business owners from having that plan anymore,” he said. “Not only is it unfair to those small business owners, it’s going to reduce the likelihood that they’re going to offer those benefits to their employees. And that’s particularly acute in a challenging time like now.”
“Tens of millions of people” could lose their plans as a result of the proposed change, Graff estimated. Small businesses, which would be the most affected by the new rules, employ roughly 58.9 million people, or 47.5% of the nation’s workforce.
That sentiment was echoed by Paul Swanson, the vice president and head of intermediary distribution at CUNA Mutual Retirement Solutions. Small businesses are typcally privately owned, and the individuals making decisions about what retirement benefits to offer are the highly compensated employees who will be most affected by the overhaul.
“If they don’t have as much of a personal incentive to offer the plan, if you take away the incentive, but leave the burden, they may very well decide it’s not worth it for them to offer the plan,” Swanson told FOX Business. “So I think there is some risk there. ”
Under current law, workers contribute pre-tax dollars to the accounts, reducing their annual taxable income. (When the funds are eventually withdrawn in retirement, then the money is taxed). But the system tends to disproportionately benefit wealthier earners since deductions are more valuable the higher one’s income bracket is.
For instance, a taxpayer in the top income bracket would receive a $37 benefit for every $100 contributed to a retirement account. By comparison, a taxpayer in the bottom bracket would get just a $10 benefit in exchange for the same $100 contribution.
BIDEN PLEDGES TO HIKE TAXES ON AMERICANS EARNING MORE THAN $400K
The former vice president has pledged to eliminate such deductions and replace them with flat tax credits for each dollar saved. The campaign has not specified with the percentage would be, but the Tax Foundation estimated that a 26% credit would be roughly revenue-neutral, something the Biden campaign is aiming for. That would mean regardless of their income, any taxpayer who contributed $100 to a retirement account would receive a $26 benefit.
“When you boil it down, what this does is, it benefits the people in the lowest two tax brackets,” Swanson, a CFA, told FOX Business. “It increases the efficiency with which they save; they get a bigger bang for their buck for participating in a 401(k) program.”
Yet he said he unsure whether the plan would actually drive savings among low-income Americans — and would actually reduce their monthly paycheck.
“Lower-income workers, they operate on a shoestring budget,” he said. “They live paycheck-to-paycheck. This proposal will actually decrease their takehome pay.”
For instance, if a worker in the 10% tax bracket kicked in $100 to their 401(k), it would only cost them about $90 under the current system, thanks to the income tax deduction. But under the new one, it would cost them $100 to save $100.
“At the end of the year, they’ll get a matching credit, and it will benefit them,” Swanson said. “But next Friday, their paycheck’s going down. Will that drive the desired behavior? I don’t know.”
Detractors of the proposal have also noted it would reduce the tax benefit of traditional retirement accounts for married couples earning above $80,250 and earning under $400,000 — violating the former vice president’s pledge to not hike taxes on earners below the $400,000 threshold.

Islam’s Joseph Goebbels, Tariq Ramadan, thinks he can easily fool dimwitted Western authorities and contemptible Western laws. It sure took long enough. Harvey Weinstein is vilified, jihad inciter Ramadan is revered, and that tells you all you need to know about the the Democrats and the left elite.
All too often in the Muslim community, it’s the woman’s fault when she’s raped and sexually assaulted — and Islamic scholar Tariq Ramadan is a perfect example of how this religion treats women lower than dogs.

The year 2020 has been hellacious .
However , let ’ s not forget 2015 when jihad attacks were happening almost every other month .
The year started with the massacre of cartoonists in France .
Today , the French updated the cry “ Je suis Charlie ” to “ Je suis Samuel ” in response to the beheading of a school teacher who dared show the Charle Hebdo Muhammad cartoons .
In May , ISIS irregulars came to kill Pamela Geller and others who attended the Muhammad art contest in Garland , Texas .
The media took the side @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , another jihad attack claimed the lives of four Marines in Chattanooga , Tennessee .
But , who speaks of them today ?
In November , ISIS “ refugees ” , killed 130 people including 90 at the Bataclan theatre in what the Guardian called the deadliest attack on French soil since World War 2 .
Finally , in December , another jihad attack targeted a Christmas party in San Bernardino .
It was at the time the deadliest terror attack on American soil since 911 .
The San Bernardino attack caused Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the country .
And , while that didn ’ t happen , immigration has tightened , with jihad attacks in America halted .
Today , a court sentenced the man responsible with supplying weapons to the San Bernardino killers to 20 years in prison .
A realistic understanding of the world is the only thing that will stop the jihad .
ABC7 : The sentencing in federal court in Riverside came after families of the victims pleaded with a judge to give Marquez a lengthy sentence .
Prosecutors had asked for a 25-year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suggested five years .
Marquez has a high IQ and the mental capacity to understand the likelihood of an attack occurring once he bought the weapons , prosecutor Melanie Sartoris said .
“ He knew all along that this would happen , ” but he did nothing , Sartoris said .
Defense attorney John Aquilina argued in court that his client had no knowledge of what was going to happen .
“ Mr .
Marquez ’ s sentence should not be reflective of what happened in San Bernardino , ” he said .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ If defendant had not illegally purchased two assault weapons for a terrorist , that terrorist and his wife would not have used those firearms to murder 14 people and wound 22 survivors , ” prosecutors wrote in a court filing .

Marquez ’ s defense attorney said his client had been manipulated by Farook since he was 13 , when they met @ @ @ @ @ @ @ desperate to socialize with others and needed to escape verbal and physical abuse at home .
He later tried to withdraw his plea to one of the counts , but the request was denied by the court .

pamelagellerreport--2020-10-25--Tough Talk in France, But Will There Be Action?

Could it be that France , in the wake of the beheading of a schoolteacher for the crime of showing his class a Muhammad cartoon , is actually going to get tough against jihad violence ?
There are some indications that it might actually take decisive action this time : AFP reported Monday that French police had “ launched a series of raids targeting Islamist networks.
” Meanwhile , Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin vowed that there would be “ not a minute ’ s respite for enemies of the Republic.
” At least fifteen people have been arrested in connection @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Muslim migrant Abdullakh Anzorov , including Muslim leader Abdelhakim Sefrioui ( who issued a death fatwa against Paty ) , four students whom Anzorov paid to point out Paty to him , and four members of the jihad murderer ’ s family .
More arrests may be in the offing .
The arrest of Sefrioui is particularly significant .
He is , according to AFP , “ well-known to French intelligence , whose agents have monitored his statements and activities for nearly 20 years.
” He has expressed “ virulent anti-Zionism and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on behalf of the presidential campaign of the comedian Dieudonné — who was recently banned across a host of social media platforms for his Holocaust denial and his crude antisemitism.
” Not only that , but he has threatened to kill the imam of the Paris suburb Drancy , Hassen Chalgoumi , for not being bloodthirsty enough for Sefrioui ’ s taste .
Yet until now , all French authorities have been doing is “ monitoring ” Sefrioui .
For twenty years !
Twenty years while Sefrioui preached jihad hatred ; how many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ free in France today ?
But now things are different , or at least appear to be .
“ We want to harass and destabilize this movement in a very determined way , ” said an Interior Ministry source .
Darmanin himself , meanwhile , “ said the government would also tighten its grip on NGOs with suspected links to Islamist networks , including the Anti-Islamophobia Collective , a group that claims to monitor attacks against Muslims in France.
” President Emmanuel Macron affected a tough-guy pose , declaring : “ Fear is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , now ?
All too many jihadis in France don ’ t seem to be taking the swaggering President seriously .
On Wednesday , according to LaProvence , “ an Avignon man ” was arrested after “ strolling drunk on the public highway , the man annoyed passers-by and residents , who alerted the police .
A police patrol arrived at the scene and the troublemaker began to threaten and insult them and even shouted ‘ Allah Akbar , ’ threatening them with death.
” The following day , Reuters reported that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after “ a woman carrying several bags had threatened to blow herself up and had shouted ‘ Allahu Akbar.
’ ” Meanwhile , Marianne , a teacher in France says : “ The death of 47-year-old colleague Samuel Paty is a loss on the front lines , at the front .
Suddenly , we understand that we are doing a dangerous job .
The day before yesterday , I didn ’ t think about it , and today it jumps out at me : we are potential targets.
” Another recounts : “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very first class on this subject [ the freedom of speech ] , I decided to put my foot in the dish and broach the subject of the Muhammad cartoons .
Unfortunately , it didn ’ t quite turn out the way I imagined….Whatever the profile of the students , there was an immediate consensus to say that we can not touch religions .
It hit me.
” A Muslim student declared : “ For several years , freedom of expression has been threatened because some journalists lack respect for religions and do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we go beyond the limits , there will be attacks.
” What ’ s more , “ faced with a video of French flags being burnt in Pakistan , most of the students applauded.
” Still another teacher in France stated that some Muslim students , even as young as sixth grade , “ defend terrorists.
” When a teacher brought up Charlie Hebdo ’ s Muhammad cartoons , Muslim students “ exploded .
They immediately insulted the newspaper ; some even explained that they wanted blasphemy to be prohibited by law … @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them , they tried to make me say certain things to trick me .
I was no longer in control of anything.
” When he showed a video of Muslims burning the French flag in response to the cartoons , “ I thought I would make them think , but most of the students stood up and clapped….For many , Charlie is the symbol of what they see as a persecution of Muslims and that they call it ‘ Islamophobia.
’ They have a very confused political vision .
To them Charlie is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fight against them , all means are legitimate .
Insults are like violence .
To disagree with them on this issue is to side with the ‘ racists.

A police patrol arrived at the scene and the troublemaker began to threaten and insult them and even shouted ‘Allah Akbar,’ threatening them with death.” The following day, Reuters reported that the Part-Dieu railway station in Lyon was evacuated after “ a woman carrying several bags had threatened to blow herself up and had shouted ‘Allahu Akbar.’”

Another recounts: “Naively, last year, for my very first class on this subject [the freedom of speech], I decided to put my foot in the dish and broach the subject of the Muhammad cartoons. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite turn out the way I imagined….Whatever the profile of the students, there was an immediate consensus to say that we cannot touch religions.
