thewashingtonstandard--2020-12-10--“Defund Them!” Back The Blue Supporters Realize Cops Don’t Stop Crime & Lose Their Minds

St. Paul , MN — Over the weekend , Donald Trump supporters held a protest in front of the governor ’ s mansion to ‘ Stop the Steal.
’ The Stop the Steal movement is made up of folks who believe that widespread electoral fraud took place during the 2020 presidential election to deny incumbent President Trump victory over former vice president Joe Biden .
The Stop the Steal groups have been holding protests at governor ’ s mansions across the country .
Their appearance is the same throughout — Trump flags , “ stop the steal ” signs , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the infamous black , white , and blue “ blue lives matter ” flags .
The degree of cognitive dissonance is takes to chant “ back the blue ” and “ blue lives matter ” while simultaneously calling for a revolt is mind-boggling .
It is epitomized by those wearing shirts or tattoos with the molon labe or “ come and take it ” mantra , plastered with blue line propaganda .
It takes a serious lack of critical thought in failing to realize that the blue line in that design literally represents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and take it.
” Nevertheless , these folks have unironically paraded these opposing views around for years , failing to grasp the concept .
That may be about to change , however , after the Back the Blue / Stop the Steal folks had a veritable epiphany about police in America this week .
During their protest at the governor ’ s mansion on Saturday , counter protesters — who appeared to be antifa — showed up as well .
They two sides clashed , however , the clashes were largely uneventful as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s faces , got into small quarrels , and pepper sprayed each other .
For the most part , the police simply stood in the governor ’ s yard , protecting the property as the serfs literally fought at their feet .
Just a few yards away , from where the police were setup , vehicles belonging to the back the blue / stop the steal protesters were vandalized , with many of their tires slashed , and police did nothing to stop it .
When the back the blue folks realized @ @ @ @ @ @ @ police looked on , they collectively lost their minds .
One of the protesters randomly attacked a passerby knocking him off of his street skis as angry MAGA women ran to join in on the soon-to-be lynching .
Seeing that there was about to be a potential murder take place in front of the governor ’ s mansion , a couple of the officers left the governor ’ s yard and moved in before things got too bad .
When police arrested one of the back the blue / stop the steal protesters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ epiphany happened .
‘ How could police stand by and allow these antifa scum to vandalize our vehicles , and then arrest one of us ?
’ they likely thought .
The anger at the vandalism was then directed at the cops as the back the blue / stop the steal protesters began yelling obscenities at them , while calling for “ defunding them.
” “ We should f**king defund you , you ’ re not doing your g*dd**n job !
” a tall bearded protester yells at the officers , while wearing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flag on the sleeve .
And just like that , for a brief moment , the far right and the far left came together in a symbolic Venn diagram of common ground .
Although the reaction from the stop the steal folks was more ‘ Karen-esque ’ in nature , the fact is , this realization occurred .
Finally , the back the blue folks realized that police are not there for their protection .
They are there to protect the establishment and to collect revenue .
Preventing or stopping crime is but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ There is no doubt that being a police officer can be a grueling , dangerous , and often times extremely unrewarding job .
But much of this stress is due to a failed job description .
While many cops out there have saved lives and have been recognized for their heroism , others , who are ‘ just doing their jobs , ’ have continued to drive a wedge between the police and the policed .
Enforcing laws for victimless crimes , extorting people over arbitrary traffic laws like seat belts and window @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for marijuana does not make you a hero .
It makes you a tool for the prison industrial complex and the police state .
When taking a quick scroll down Facebook posts , websites , and Twitter feeds on any number of subjects , it is easy to find negative comments about police officers .
Despite police unions and police apologists claiming these negative comments and criticisms are coming from criminals and thugs , the reality is much different .
Of course murderers , rapists , and thieves hate cops but these are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This criticism comes from mothers and fathers who ’ ve watched their children get harassed constantly because of the neighborhoods they live in or the color of their skin .
This criticism comes from the millions of people who have a family member whose life has been ruined because police caught them with a plant .

The degree of cognitive dissonance is takes to chant “back the blue” and “blue lives matter” while simultaneously calling for a revolt is mind-boggling. It is epitomized by those wearing shirts or tattoos with the molon labe or “come and take it” mantra, plastered with blue line propaganda.
It takes a serious lack of critical thought in failing to realize that the blue line in that design literally represents the actual people who would “come and take it.” Nevertheless, these folks have unironically paraded these opposing views around for years, failing to grasp the concept.
That may be about to change, however, after the Back the Blue / Stop the Steal folks had a veritable epiphany about police in America this week.
During their protest at the governor’s mansion on Saturday, counter protesters — who appeared to be antifa — showed up as well. They two sides clashed, however, the clashes were largely uneventful as protesters and counter-protesters yelled in each other’s faces, got into small quarrels, and pepper sprayed each other.

Finally, the back the blue folks realized that police are not there for their protection. They are there to protect the establishment and to collect revenue. Preventing or stopping crime is but a byproduct of this main purpose.
There is no doubt that being a police officer can be a grueling, dangerous, and often times extremely unrewarding job. But much of this stress is due to a failed job description.
While many cops out there have saved lives and have been recognized for their heroism, others, who are ‘just doing their jobs,’ have continued to drive a wedge between the police and the policed.
Enforcing laws for victimless crimes, extorting people over arbitrary traffic laws like seat belts and window tint, and kidnapping and caging people for marijuana does not make you a hero. It makes you a tool for the prison industrial complex and the police state.
When taking a quick scroll down Facebook posts, websites, and Twitter feeds on any number of subjects, it is easy to find negative comments about police officers. Despite police unions and police apologists claiming these negative comments and criticisms are coming from criminals and thugs, the reality is much different.
Of course murderers, rapists, and thieves hate cops but these are not the people openly criticizing police. This criticism comes from mothers and fathers who’ve watched their children get harassed constantly because of the neighborhoods they live in or the color of their skin.
This criticism comes from the millions of people who have a family member whose life has been ruined because police caught them with a plant. This criticism comes from the millions of other people who have to decide between paying their electricity bill or paying their $300 seat belt ticket.
Many police departments even take to social media to brag about enforcing these laws in which there is no victim. Why, exactly, these departments brag on Facebook about such a waste of taxpayer money and oppression of the poor is a mystery—but they do it a lot.
And we the people are becoming tired of it.
Rape kits collect dust on shelves in police departments nationwide while weed busts continue to soar despite growing legality. Billions are collected in traffic fines annually while murders remain uninvestigated. Priorities are in disarray and blue lives matter folks are cheering it on.
Despite the near complete erosion of the constitutional protections against unlawful search and seizure, the clearance rate for murders and rapes has continued its free fall over the past decades. This highlights the fact, as the back the blue supporters learned on Saturday, that no matter how many rights are given up or freedoms diminished — police cannot guarantee your safety — and all of this is due to the war on drugs, revenue collection for victimless crimes, and protection of the establishment.
The back the blue folks calling for the defunding of police is a sign that things need to change. This sign can be taken as an opportunity for Americans to move forward and foster a more free society, or it can be squandered and covered in excuses by playing victim. The choice is ours.

Here Is The Lawsuit Against Montana Governor Steve Bullock For His Lawless COVID Orders That Violated The Liberties Of The People Editor ’ s note : I interviewed both Chuck Baldwin and his son-in-law Allan Baker on this matter at the end of November .
See listen to the interview below , then read Mr. Baldwin ’ s article .
A Pastor Leads The Charge Of Montanans Against A Tyrannical Government ’ s COVID Mandates Today , December 10 , 2020 , the law firm of Rhoades , Siefert & Erickson , PLLC , in Missoula , Montana , filed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on behalf of a host of plaintiffs , alleging Governor Bullock ’ s mask orders , shutdowns , lockdowns , social distancing requirements , etc.
, are an egregious violation of the constitutional liberties of the people of Montana .
The complaint was filed in the Montana First Judicial District Court , Lewis and Clark County ( Helena ) .
Each plaintiff in this lawsuit wrote a summary statement as to why he or she decided to be a plaintiff in the case .
As one of the plaintiffs , here is my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our country ’ s existence , the fundamental Natural liberty deemed sacrosanct to the very purpose of our Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights was Religious Liberty .
That fact is easily seen as James Madison put the freedom of worship and the freedom of assembly in the very first Article of our Bill of Rights—with the strongest statement “ no law .

” The First Amendment protects the Biblical duty of Christian people to “ forsake not the assembling of yourselves together , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the day approaching.
” ( Hebrews 10:25 ) Christians are instructed to “ lay hands ” on disciples as a means of setting them apart for Christian service ( Acts 8:17 ; Acts 6:6 ; Acts 13:3 ; Acts 19:6 ; Acts 28:8 ) .
We are instructed to “ greet one another with a holy kiss.

Think of it : America faced a War for Independence , a Civil War , the War of 1812—all fought on American soil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Korean War and the Vietnam War .
We have faced pestilences of every sort .
My parents lived through the Great Depression .
In all of this , NEVER were churches forced to close or told how many people could or could not attend their worship services .
At no time did government mandate they wear masks and stay 6 feet apart .
I distinctly remember my mom and dad telling me of the awful poverty , disease and sickness that people experienced every day during the Great Depression .
But no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ circumstances , they came together on the Lord ’ s Day to worship and sing and pray and to draw inner strength from spiritual inspiration and instruction .
While Germany was bombing the city of London into the Stone Age during World War II , Christian families would gather in the bombed-out , gutted churches to worship and pray together .
Even in horrific times such as these , no government had such audacity as to prohibit Christian assemblies or limit the number of worshippers or mandate that people hide their faces from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s presence .
I view Governor Bullock ’ s mandates as an assault against our Christian faith , an assault against our Religious Liberties , an assault against the Natural Laws of God enshrined in our Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights and , yes , an assault against our very humanity .
In days of old , civil magistrates such as Steve Bullock would not merely be driven from office but would be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail .
I invite all of my readers—including @ @ @ @ @ @ @ website to read the complaint for yourself .
Please share this lawsuit with everyone you can .
This lawsuit is fighting for the basic constitutional liberties of every person in this country—not just in Montana .
A win would set a precedent for the entire nation .

Here Is The Lawsuit Against Montana Governor Steve Bullock For His Lawless COVID Orders That Violated The Liberties Of The People
Editor’s note: I interviewed both Chuck Baldwin and his son-in-law Allan Baker on this matter at the end of November. See listen to the interview below, then read Mr. Baldwin’s article.
Today, December 10, 2020, the law firm of Rhoades, Siefert & Erickson, PLLC, in Missoula, Montana, filed a lawsuit against Montana Governor Steve Bullock on behalf of a host of plaintiffs, alleging Governor Bullock’s mask orders, shutdowns, lockdowns, social distancing requirements, etc., are an egregious violation of the constitutional liberties of the people of Montana. The complaint was filed in the Montana First Judicial District Court, Lewis and Clark County (Helena).
Each plaintiff in this lawsuit wrote a summary statement as to why he or she decided to be a plaintiff in the case. As one of the plaintiffs, here is my summary statement:
From the beginning of our country’s existence, the fundamental Natural liberty deemed sacrosanct to the very purpose of our Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights was Religious Liberty. That fact is easily seen as James Madison put the freedom of worship and the freedom of assembly in the very first Article of our Bill of Rights—with the strongest statement “no law . . . prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” The First Amendment protects the Biblical duty of Christian people to “forsake not the assembling of yourselves together, and so much the more as you see the day approaching.” (Hebrews 10:25) Christians are instructed to “lay hands” on disciples as a means of setting them apart for Christian service (Acts 8:17; Acts 6:6; Acts 13:3; Acts 19:6; Acts 28:8). We are instructed to “greet one another with a holy kiss.” (Romans 16:16; I Corinthians 16:20; II Corinthians 13:12; I Thessalonians 5:26) How are we to baptize our converts without touching them, embracing them and, of course, immersing them? When sick, Christians are instructed to call upon the elders of the church that they might “pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.” (James 5:14) Our great Savior and Teacher—our Example in every way—constantly touched people, held people, embraced people.

(Matthew 8:3; 8:15; Matthew 9:29; Matthew 17:7; Matthew 20:34; Mark 1:41; Mark 7:33; Luke 5:13; Luke 22:51) Were there no communicable diseases during the first century? Governor Steve Bullock’s mandates that limit the numbers of people who can gather at one place—including churches—that require social distancing between individuals and mandates that healthy people wear masks as a requirement to interact with society is an egregious abridgment against our individual liberties enshrined in Natural Law and protected in constitutional law and an even greater abridgment against our God-given Religious Liberty protected in law since before our nation came into existence. Think of it: America faced a War for Independence, a Civil War, the War of 1812—all fought on American soil. We faced two world wars, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. We have faced pestilences of every sort. My parents lived through the Great Depression. In all of this, NEVER were churches forced to close or told how many people could or could not attend their worship services. At no time did government mandate they wear masks and stay 6 feet apart. I distinctly remember my mom and dad telling me of the awful poverty, disease and sickness that people experienced every day during the Great Depression. But no matter the pain and affliction of their circumstances, they came together on the Lord’s Day to worship and sing and pray and to draw inner strength from spiritual inspiration and instruction. While Germany was bombing the city of London into the Stone Age during World War II, Christian families would gather in the bombed-out, gutted churches to worship and pray together. Even in horrific times such as these, no government had such audacity as to prohibit Christian assemblies or limit the number of worshippers or mandate that people hide their faces from each other and avoid one another’s presence.

I also encourage every lover of Liberty to join this effort in any way that you can. Those of you in the media are especially encouraged to cover this story and contact our lead counsel, Quentin Rhoades, for more information.
Most people seem content to grumble and complain but actually do very little to protect and defend Liberty. And that’s exactly why Liberty is losing in this country.
But here is a motivated, enthusiastic group of people—and a courageous Liberty lawyer—who are doing more than just talk. They have stepped up to the plate and put their money where their mouth is. I am honored to be named among them.
We need your help. Liberty needs your help. I am asking readers to help make history. Ask yourself: In your entire lifetime, how many opportunities will you have to do something that could truly make a difference in the preservation of Liberty in our land?
Well, here is such an opportunity.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-12-10--The Atheist Vaccine (Video)

The Atheist Vaccine (Video)

There has been much speculation about why Bill Gates is leading such an enormous push for everyone on the planet to be vaccinated against a virus that according to President Trump , “ over 99.98 percent of those under the age of 50 make a full and quick recovery .
” There are many more dangerous and even lethal viral threats to human society such as , but never before in human history has there been such a coordinated effort to push a vaccine to stop a virus with the death rate of the common seasonal flu .
Unfortunately , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not have the discernment to sense that something does not add up .
Many doctors are sounding the alarm about how this vaccine will actually change an individual ’ s DNA .
But to what end ?
Could scientists be able to use a virus to vaccinate people against religious extremism ?
Far too many gullible Christians would say that that a vaccine against religious extremism is some wide conspiracy theory .
When in fact it is a conspiracy FACT .
According to Cornell University Law School , a Conspiracy is defined as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people to commit an illegal act , along with an intent to achieve the agreement ’ s goal .
” The question before us is this… Is there is a worldwide conspiracy that would seek to use a virus in order to vaccinate the worldwide population with the goal of ending what these luciferin totalitarians view as “ religious extremism.
” Don ’ t believe me ?
Listen HERE to a briefing given to the CIA 15 years ago about developing a vaccine to change a person ’ s DNA in order to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do these people consider to be religious extremists ?
According to the Pentagon and Department of Defense training documents , evangelical Christians and Catholics , ( Trump Supporters ) are linked with other violent extremist groups such as the KKK , Hamas and Al-Qaida .
The term “ extremist ” however , is always “ subjective ” depending on the position of the speaker .
The basic definition for the word extreme carries the understanding of two things being completely opposite of one another or on opposing sides of any political , religious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ good is the extreme of evil ; right is the extreme of wrong ; moral is the extreme of immoral ; light is the extreme of darkness .
Therefore , the term “ extremist ” is always subjective depending on the observer ’ s political , religious or moral position .
In authoritarian societies , tyrants , whether they be kings , dictators , judges or even elected legislatures consider those who espouse freedom from tyranny as extremists .
It has often been said that “ One man ’ s terrorist is another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Founding Fathers were seen as “ terrorists ” by the tyrannical government of King George .
However , the American people remember them as “ Freedom fighters ” and as a result ; Americans have enjoyed more freedom than any other nation in history for nearly 200 years because the courage that they displayed in throwing off the chains of oppression .
In today ’ s American society , those who hold the moral , social and political values of our Founding Father as being labels as extremists by an increasingly tyrannical Federal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ Pentagon Labels Founding Fathers , Conservatives as Extremists ” by Todd Starnes of Fox News , he contrasts the religious and political ideologies of the present-day American government and that of our Founding Fathers .
The article begins : “ George Washington would not be welcome in the modern U.S. military .
Neither would Thomas Jefferson or Benjamin Franklin , according to Department of Defense training documents that depict the Founding Fathers as extremists and conservative ( what they really meant to say is Christian ) organizations as “ hate groups.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a student guide entitled “ Extremism.
” The DOD warns students to be aware “ that many extremists will talk of individual liberties , states ’ rights and how to make the world a better place.
” Under a section titled “ Extremist Ideologies , ” the document states , “ In U.S. history , there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements .
The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ viewed as extremists by the wicked and unjust men of this world .
“ For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness ?
And what communion has light with darkness ?
And what accord has Christ with Belial ?
Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever ?
And what agreement has the temple of God with idols ?
For you are the temple of the living God .
As God has said… “ Come out from among them and be separate , says the Lord .

There has been much speculation about why Bill Gates is leading such an enormous push for everyone on the planet to be vaccinated against a virus that according to President Trump, “ over 99.98 percent of those under the age of 50 make a full and quick recovery .” There are many more dangerous and even lethal viral threats to human society such as Ebola , but never before in human history has there been such a coordinated effort to push a vaccine to stop a virus with the death rate of the common seasonal flu. Unfortunately, many people, Christians included, do not have the discernment to sense that something does not add up.
Many doctors are sounding the alarm about how this vaccine will actually change an individual’s DNA. But to what end? Could scientists be able to use a virus to vaccinate people against religious extremism? Far too many gullible Christians would say that that a vaccine against religious extremism is some wide conspiracy theory. When in fact it is a conspiracy FACT. According to Cornell University Law School, a Conspiracy is defined as “ An agreement between two or more people to commit an illegal act, along with an intent to achieve the agreement’s goal .”
The question before us is this… Is there is a worldwide conspiracy that would seek to use a virus in order to vaccinate the worldwide population with the goal of ending what these luciferin totalitarians view as “religious extremism.” Don’t believe me? Listen HERE to a briefing given to the CIA 15 years ago about developing a vaccine to change a person’s DNA in order to end “religious extremism.”
But who do these people consider to be religious extremists? According to the Pentagon and Department of Defense training documents, evangelical Christians and Catholics, (Trump Supporters) are linked with other violent extremist groups such as the KKK, Hamas and Al-Qaida.
The term “extremist” however, is always “subjective” depending on the position of the speaker. The basic definition for the word extreme carries the understanding of two things being completely opposite of one another or on opposing sides of any political, religious or social spectrum. For example, good is the extreme of evil; right is the extreme of wrong; moral is the extreme of immoral; light is the extreme of darkness. Therefore, the term “extremist” is always subjective depending on the observer’s political, religious or moral position.
In authoritarian societies, tyrants, whether they be kings, dictators, judges or even elected legislatures consider those who espouse freedom from tyranny as extremists. It has often been said that “One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.” Our Founding Fathers were seen as “terrorists” by the tyrannical government of King George. However, the American people remember them as “Freedom fighters” and as a result; Americans have enjoyed more freedom than any other nation in history for nearly 200 years because the courage that they displayed in throwing off the chains of oppression.
In today’s American society, those who hold the moral, social and political values of our Founding Father as being labels as extremists by an increasingly tyrannical Federal Government. In an article titled, “Pentagon Labels Founding Fathers, Conservatives as Extremists” by Todd Starnes of Fox News, he contrasts the religious and political ideologies of the present-day American government and that of our Founding Fathers. The article begins:
“George Washington would not be welcome in the modern U.S. military. Neither would Thomas Jefferson or Benjamin Franklin, according to Department of Defense training documents that depict the Founding Fathers as extremists and conservative (what they really meant to say is Christian) organizations as “hate groups.” Included in the 133-pages of lesson plans is a student guide entitled “Extremism.” The DOD warns students to be aware “that many extremists will talk of individual liberties, states’ rights and how to make the world a better place.” Under a section titled “Extremist Ideologies,” the document states, “In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples.”
True followers of Jesus Christ should be viewed as extremists by the wicked and unjust men of this world.
“For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said… “Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you.” (2 Corinthians 6:14-17)
Did not Jesus Christ himself teach that those who followed and applied His teaching to their lives would be labeled as extremists?
“Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kind of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” (Matt 5:11-12)
The next time someone labels you as an extremist, do not receive it as a term of derision… wear it as a badge of honor! The next time someone labels you as an extremist, consider yourself to be blessed. You will be known by the historical company you keep.

The facts at hand presumably speak for themselves , but a trifle more vulgarly , I suspect , than facts even usually do .
The German-language news outlet Bild reported Monday that “ the almost blind and handicapped ex-cook Helmut K. ( † 50 ) from Kaufbeuren made an appointment on the gay dating platform ‘ Planet Romeo ’ on March 14th at 4.30pm with the username wandalalaland.

The facts at hand presumably speak for themselves, but a trifle more vulgarly, I suspect, than facts even usually do. The German-language news outlet Bild reported Monday that “the almost blind and handicapped ex-cook Helmut K. († 50) from Kaufbeuren made an appointment on the gay dating platform ‘Planet Romeo’ on March 14th at 4.30pm with the username wandalalaland.’” Then “at 9:01 p.m., the heavy metal fan was tied up and gagged in his bedroom, which is above the popular escape room ‘Countdown,” and was “gagged so hard that he choked on his dentures.” Helmut K. ultimately died, and “the man whom prosecutor Andreas Slach suspects to be behind ‘wandalalaland’ is now sitting in the dock at the Kempten Regional Court.” The perpetrator is a Muslim migrant who once won praise as a “model refugee.”
The 29-year-old Karam A., according to Bild, “has lived as a model refugee in Kaufbeuren since 2015, but is said to have killed people in his home country of Syria, according to investigators.” Why was he let in to Germany if he had been known to have killed people in Syria, and if this was not known, why wasn’t he deported when it was discovered? Bild doesn’t bother to take up such questions.
It does report, however, that the death of Helmut K. was the result of careful planning. “Together with Hazem K. († 21), A. is said to have forged the murder plot that cost the life of Helmut K., who was in need of care and had a heart condition. Hazem K. knew from the neighborhood that the early retiree was hoarding 8,000 euros in cash in his apartment.” It was Karam’s friend Hazem who “developed the idea for the robbery with a fake account. During the police interrogation, he confessed to everything, incriminated his accomplice Karam A. seriously, but then hanged himself in his cell in August.”
Karam puts all the blame on Hazem: “He screwed the police, religion and his lawyer.” Religion? What does his religion have to do with this? Were Hazem and Karam plotting to murder a homosexual because of Sharia’s death penalty on such activity? He doesn’t explain, and Bild once again doesn’t ask; it is more interested in Karam’s flair for melodrama: “Theatrically he tried to convince the judge of his innocence: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, there are many things in life that are unbelievable, so that’s not impossible.’ Judge Christoph Schwiebacher ended this bizarre performance: ‘Don’t tell any more stories, stop the show!’”
One of the most commonly repeated elements of the Leftist/Islamic supremacist rap sheet against me, supposedly establishing that I am an “anti-Muslim extremist,” is that I said that there was no reliable way to distinguish between peaceful Muslims and jihadists, and no distinction between the two in Muslim communities. This statement doesn’t mean that all Muslims are terrorists; it means that peaceful Muslims aren’t separating themselves from the terrorists.
And that is demonstrably true. All too many jihadis have operated freely in American mosques without being put out. After a Muslim who supported the Islamic State shot a police officer in Philadelphia, the local mosque leaders initially denied knowing him, but then it turned out they were lying, and the jihadi attended the mosque frequently. The same thing happened after jihadis attacked our free speech event in Garland, Texas: the mosque they attended in Phoenix denied knowing them, but it turned out they were regular members.
In a similar vein, this Karam A. was hailed as a “model refugee” for his success in assimilating into German society. But it seems as if he still carried within him some of the attitudes and assumptions created by a culture of violence that mandates the execution of homosexuals.
Yet no one could have predicted that this would happen, as there is, here again, no reliable way to distinguish between peaceful Muslims and violent ones. Instead of heaping abuse upon those who point this out, genuinely peaceful Muslims should be working hard to establish such a distinction, in Germany and elsewhere, because of course, no one would dream of actually doing something so radical as seriously vetting the migrants.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-12-10--Most Controversial Supreme Court Case Since Bush v. Gore Will Decide President For Next 4 Years

The mainstream media and many on the left are greatly underestimating the importance of the election case that was put on the Supreme Court docket this week , and that is a tragic mistake on their part .
Just like Bush v. Gore in 2000 , Texas v. Pennsylvania will be “ outcome determinative ” .
In other words , the Supreme Court is about to decide whether Donald Trump or Joe Biden will be president for the next four years .
Very late on Monday , Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a suit that alleged that voting procedures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Pennsylvania , and Wisconsin violated the U.S. Constitution .
This is how Paxton ’ s bill of complaint began… Either we have a Constitution or we don ’ t , and if the Supreme Court chooses to ignore the plain meaning of the Constitution in this case we will cross a line that will never be able to be uncrossed .
The Supreme Court could have taken one look at Paxton ’ s suit and thrown it out , but that didn ’ t happen .
Instead , the case was officially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ later .
There has been a lot of confusion about what this means , and so let me try to clear that up .
According to the official website of the federal court system , a case is placed on the docket once the Court officially decides to accept a case… In this case , there was no petition for certiorari because the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction over controversies between states .
Many on the left are still trying to argue that the Court will never actually consider Paxton ’ s arguments @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accepted and Georgia , Michigan , Pennsylvania , and Wisconsin have been ordered to file their responses by 3 PM eastern time on Thursday .
So the ball is rolling , and no amount of huffing and puffing by the left will be able to stop it .
On Wednesday , Missouri and 16 other states filed an amicus brief in support of the claims that Texas is making… Subsequently , the state of Arizona filed its own amicus brief in support of Texas .
Here are a few lines from that brief… @ @ @ @ @ @ @ petitioned to be part of the case , and he tweeted about that fact on Wednesday… So on one side of the case , we have 19 different states and the president of the United States .
There is no way that the Supreme Court could ignore that even if the justices wanted to do so .
Of course just because the Supreme Court is going to consider the case does not mean that they are going to rule a certain way .
Ultimately , the state of Texas and those supporting Texas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case .
According to the brief that Texas filed , there are three primary issues that need to be addressed .
First of all , it is alleged that officials in Georgia , Michigan , Pennsylvania , and Wisconsin violated the U.S. Constitution by taking “ non-legislative actions to change the election rules ” that had been established by their respective state legislatures .
But the Electors Clause of the U.S. Constitution gives state legislatures the sole authority for determining how electors are selected , and so changing election rules without legislative approval @ @ @ @ @ @ @ article that I published yesterday , I shared a list from the Heritage Foundation that contains a few examples of election rules being unconstitutionally altered… • Pennsylvania : The complaint accuses Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar of , among other things , “ without legislative approval , unilaterally abrogating ” Pennsylvania statutes that require “ signature verification for absentee or mail-in ballots.
” These changes were “ not ratified ” by the Pennsylvania legislature .
• Georgia : Similarly , the complaint describes how Georgia ’ s Secretary of State , Brad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , unilaterally abrogated Georgia ’ s statute governing the signature verification process for absentee ballots.
” • Michigan : The complaint states that Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson “ abrogated Michigan election statutes related to absentee ballot applications and signature verification.
” • Wisconsin : Lastly , Wisconsin ’ s elections commission made similar changes in state laws without the permission of the legislature that “ weakened , or did away with , established security procedures put in place by the Wisconsin legislature to ensure absentee ballot integrity.
” Secondly , Texas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ treated very differently in left-leaning areas of Georgia , Michigan , Pennsylvania , and Wisconsin than they were in right-leaning areas of those states .
Here is just one example of that phenomenon… This is a clear violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment , and there are many other examples just like this in the four states in question .
Thirdly , the state of Texas is alleging widespread “ voting irregularities ” , but ultimately those don ’ t even need to be proven .
Because if Texas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Electors Clause and/or proving violations of the Equal Protection Clause in each of the four states , the Supreme Court should rule in their favor .
So what would happen then ?
Well , it is likely that such a Supreme Court decision would throw our nation into a state of complete and utter chaos because Joe Biden would no longer be the “ winner ” of the presidential election .
The electoral votes in Georgia , Michigan , Pennsylvania , and Wisconsin would suddenly not belong to anyone , and the Supreme @ @ @ @ @ @ @ direction about how to proceed , and that is something that I will be discussing in Part II of this series…

The mainstream media and many on the left are greatly underestimating the importance of the election case that was put on the Supreme Court docket this week, and that is a tragic mistake on their part. Just like Bush v. Gore in 2000, Texas v. Pennsylvania will be “outcome determinative”. In other words, the Supreme Court is about to decide whether Donald Trump or Joe Biden will be president for the next four years. Very late on Monday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a suit that alleged that voting procedures in the states of Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin violated the U.S. Constitution. This is how Paxton’s bill of complaint began…
“Our Country stands at an important crossroads. Either the Constitution matters and must be followed, even when some officials consider it inconvenient or out of date, or it is simply a piece of parchment on display at the National Archives. We ask the Court to choose the former.”
I completely agree with Paxton’s assessment.
Either we have a Constitution or we don’t, and if the Supreme Court chooses to ignore the plain meaning of the Constitution in this case we will cross a line that will never be able to be uncrossed.
The Supreme Court could have taken one look at Paxton’s suit and thrown it out, but that didn’t happen.
Instead, the case was officially put on the docket about 12 hours later.
There has been a lot of confusion about what this means, and so let me try to clear that up. According to the official website of the federal court system, a case is placed on the docket once the Court officially decides to accept a case…
If the Justices decide to accept a case (grant a petition for certiorari), the case is placed on the docket. According to the Supreme Court’s rules, the petitioner has a certain amount of time to write a brief, not to exceed 50 pages, putting forth his/her legal case concerning the issue on which the Court granted review. After the petitioner’s brief has been filed, the other party, known as the respondent, is given a certain amount of time to file a respondent’s brief. This brief is also not to exceed 50 pages.
In this case, there was no petition for certiorari because the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction over controversies between states.
Many on the left are still trying to argue that the Court will never actually consider Paxton’s arguments, but the case has already been accepted and Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin have been ordered to file their responses by 3 PM eastern time on Thursday.
So the ball is rolling, and no amount of huffing and puffing by the left will be able to stop it.
On Wednesday, Missouri and 16 other states filed an amicus brief in support of the claims that Texas is making…
The amicus brief was led by Missouri. Other states whose attorneys general signed on are all Republican: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, and West Virginia.
Subsequently, the state of Arizona filed its own amicus brief in support of Texas. Here are a few lines from that brief…
The State of Arizona will first argue that election integrity is of paramount importance. “Every voter” in a federal election “has a right under the Constitution to have his [or her] vote fairly counted, without its being distorted by fraudulently cast votes.” Anderson v. United States, 417 U.S. 211, 227 (1974).
In addition, President Trump has also petitioned to be part of the case, and he tweeted about that fact on Wednesday…
We will be INTERVENING in the Texas (plus many other states) case. This is the big one. Our Country needs a victory!
So on one side of the case, we have 19 different states and the president of the United States.
There is no way that the Supreme Court could ignore that even if the justices wanted to do so.
Of course just because the Supreme Court is going to consider the case does not mean that they are going to rule a certain way.
Ultimately, the state of Texas and those supporting Texas will need to make a winning legal case.
According to the brief that Texas filed, there are three primary issues that need to be addressed. First of all, it is alleged that officials in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin violated the U.S. Constitution by taking “non-legislative actions to change the election rules” that had been established by their respective state legislatures. But the Electors Clause of the U.S. Constitution gives state legislatures the sole authority for determining how electors are selected, and so changing election rules without legislative approval should never be done. In an article that I published yesterday, I shared a list from the Heritage Foundation that contains a few examples of election rules being unconstitutionally altered…

Pennsylvania’s Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar gave partisan activist groups direct access to Pennsylvania’s official voter rolls. Left-leaning counties illegally “pre-canvassed” by scanning and weighing mail-in ballots so that they could be “cured” before the election.
This is a clear violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and there are many other examples just like this in the four states in question.
Thirdly, the state of Texas is alleging widespread “voting irregularities”, but ultimately those don’t even need to be proven.

Ocean City, MD — This month, former Ocean City police officer and sheriff’s deputy Jarrett “Jay” Wise, 53, got himself a PBJ. No, it was not a peanut butter and jelly, but rather probation before judgment. This made him a free man despite pleading guilty to multiple child pornography charges. Blue privilege is real and if you doubt it, you need only look at the following case.
Wise was ensnared in a child pornography investigation last year when the Internet Task Force Program, a national child abuse and exploitation investigation network, sent a tip to the Worcester County Bureau of Investigations (WCBI).
Dorchester State’s Attorney Doug Jones said that the Federal Bureau of Investigations received a similar tip about this sick child predator and coordinated with county investigators.
According to court records, the FBI obtained a subpoena for Comcast records that showed two IP addresses connected to Wise’s home and business computers. When the devices and email accounts were searched, investigators found a trove of child pornography. According to investigators, some of it contained short videos of young children engaging in sexual activity with adult women.
When police moved in to arrest Wise, he waived his Miranda Rights and immediately admitted to possessing the files as well as distributing them. On January 28 of this year, Wise was indicted and hit with a slew of charges.
This trafficker of child abuse was charged with five felony counts of promoting and distributing child pornography, as well as 50 misdemeanor counts of possession of child pornography. To show you how much time he was facing in prison, each one of the 50 misdemeanors alone, came with a sentence of up to 5 years in prison, a fine of up to $2,500, or both.
Just two days after his arrest, Wise posted a $25,000 bond and was released. He would never spend another day in prison. Instead, he would make a plea deal with prosecutors, who somehow thought dropping all but three of the misdemeanor charges was a just move.
Still, he faced the possibility of 15 years for the three charges, right? Wrong.
As Ocean City Today reports, as part of his plea deal, Wise waived his right to a jury trial and pleaded guilty to three misdemeanor counts of child pornography possession, which are punishable of up to 5 years in prison, a fine of up to $2,500 or both. A pre-sentence investigation was ordered, with the sentencing date contingent upon those findings.
Last week, Wise was “sentenced” to no jail. After the hearing, Wise walked out of the court room a free man. On top of his insulting lack of punishment, Judge Thomas Groton also said that as he complies with his probation terms for the next two years, no convictions will be entered on his record — meaning he could become a cop again. However, he is not likely to do this as he is currently selling real estate in Ocean City.
That’s not all. Despite being on probation for admitting to being a literal sex offending pedophile, this former “hero” in blue will not have to ever register as a sex offender.
“In this case, the state recommended a sentence consisting of a period of incarceration, suspending that period of incarceration down to what is effectively a time-served sentence, crediting him for time he has served awaiting trial,” Jones told Ocean City Today.
But Wise spent just 48 hours in jail waiting to post bail. That is all. Does this judge think it is acceptable to spend two days in jail and face no additional consequences for trafficking in the sexual abuse of children? Apparently, he does.
In the meantime, in the same state, and around the same time as Wise was arrested, Harold Junior Morris, 30, was also arrested. Morris was not arrested for trafficking in child porn or distributing images and videos of the sexual abuse of children. He was arrested for selling a plant, cannabis. Last year, Morris was sentenced to 40 years in prison for selling this plant as the child abusing pedophile cop walked free. And we still have the audacity to call this country the “land of the free.”
Disgusting indeed.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-12-11--Stage Set For Epic Battle Between Red & Blue States At Supreme Court

In any event, this case is moving forward, and the outcome will make history no matter which way it goes.
Needless to say, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia are very upset about the suit that Texas has filed. In fact, Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro went so far as to call the suit a “seditious abuse of the judicial process”…
The Pennsylvania AG’s office described the Texas suit as a crass political maneuver to extend Trump’s term. ‘Texas’s effort to get this Court to pick the next President has no basis in law or fact. The Court should not abide this seditious abuse of the judicial process, and should send a clear and unmistakable signal that such abuse must never be replicated,’ they urged.
Of course, that is a bunch of nonsense.
As I detailed yesterday, Texas is alleging very serious violations of the Electors Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment in all four states, and the evidence clearly shows that those constitutional violations did indeed take place.

On Thursday, the District of Columbia, 20 blue states, the Virgin Islands and Guam filed an amicus brief in support of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia.
An amicus brief had already been filed by a coalition of red states on Wednesday, and on Thursday six of them actually asked the court to allow them to become co-plaintiffs…
Missouri on Wednesday led a group of 17 states in filing a brief that supported the Texas lawsuit, which alleges that the four key swing states that voted for President-elect Joe Biden violated the Constitution by having their judicial and executive branches make changes to their presidential elections rather than their legislatures. But the Thursday filing led by Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, which also includes Arkansas, Utah, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina, would make those states parties before the court in the case rather than just outside voices weighing in. President Trump’s campaign did the same on Wednesday.
Subsequently, 106 Republican members of the House of Representatives filed an amicus brief in support of Texas.
That has got to carry a lot of weight with the Court.
At this point, the Court is essentially boxed into a corner. If they throw this case aside very quickly, that will cause a massive uproar on the right.

And if Texas v. Pennsylvania ultimately results in Trump winning the election, we will witness a national temper tantrum that will shake our nation to the core.
We have reached one of the most critical moments in American history, and the future of our Republic hangs in the balance.
Historically, the Supreme Court likes to try to find an easy way out, and they may be very tempted to try to dispose of this case very quickly.
But that wouldn’t solve anything. I think that it is a very ominous sign that there is so much open animosity between red states and blue states now. Just like we witnessed prior to the Civil War, states are picking one side or the other, and talk of secession is starting to pick up steam. In fact, it was the top headline on the Drudge Report on Thursday morning.
And if the Supreme Court ignores the clear constitutional violations that occurred during this election, that will only make things a lot worse.
As Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton stated in his complaint, either we have a Constitution or we don’t.
That is what Texas v. Pennsylvania is really all about, and in a few days, we will have a clear answer to that question.

Just as predicted before the election even occurred, it would be contested and handled by the Supreme Court. The following article was written back in September:
More Preplanned Election Chaos: Trump Says The Supreme Court Will “Sort Out” The Election
According to the American Bar Association, “‘Friend of the court’ or amicus curiae briefs are often filed in appellate cases heard by the U.S. Supreme Court and state supreme courts, as well as intermediate courts of appeal. And there is considerable evidence that amicus briefs have influence.” On Tuesday evening, the Supreme Court ordered the defendant states to reply by 3 p.m. on Thursday, December 10.
“It’s not unusual,” SMU Constitutional Law Professor Dale Carpenter told CBS 11. “I don’t think it indicates anything very important… I think the court will act quickly on Thursday.” Carpenter added: “Ken Paxton is asking that Republican state legislatures in four states be allowed to displace the will of the voters in those States and choose their own slate of electors, presumably to hand the election to Donald Trump in January. The Supreme Court is not going to allow that to happen.”
We will see.
