Spending Bill with Wall Funding Passed by The House

With 217-185 votes, the house passes the spending dill with border wall funding. The bill had strong Republican support and no democrat support.

After the president on Thursday declared that he would not sign the bill if it did not include border security funding, the house started a started a new effort to push for the $5.7 billion wall funding. President Trump also had threatened to veto any legislation that is pushed without border security.

The bill also includes $7.8 billion in disaster relief funding. The House Freedom Caucus released a statement on Thursday saying that the Senate must now pass the funding. The Freedom Caucus also urged the president to fight for border security funding on Wednesday night. The chairman of the Freedom Caucus Mark Meadows (R-NC) said that House conservatives will back him if he vetoes any legislation that comes without border security.

 

Republicans in Congress have continually told the American people that we would fight for wall funding, and today the House of Representatives took its first step toward fulfilling that promise. The Senate must follow our lead. It’s time we do what we said and work with President Trump and the American people to secure our borders.

After the bill passed, Ann Coulter posted a series of tweets saying that the bill with the promises about “border security” isn’t the same as the bill about the “border wall”.

 

The chant wasn’t “SIGN A BILL WITH B.S. PROMISES ABOUT ‘BORDER SECURITY’ AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE, GUARANTEED TO FAIL!”

It was “BUILD A WALL!”

“Money for border security” = drones (so we can watch illegals pour in), more border patrol (to arrest, then release the illegals pouring in), money for the ACLU (to assist illegals breaking in). Only a wall will work.

Representative. Scott Perry (R-PA) on Thursday told Breitbart News “Nine Democrats are going to explain to their constituents, their bosses, why they would rather shut down the government than stop the flow of illegal immigrants, human trafficking, and fentanyl and opioids”

Media Giants Collude to Ban Alex Jones within 12 hours.

https://rumble.com/embed/v3kd0z/

Apple, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest, Spotify, including Stitcher removed all of Alex Jones contents from their respective platforms. Apple confirmed that it had removed 5 out of 6 podcasts reported by BuzzFeed News. Facebook removed four pages managed by Alex Jones. Google’s YouTube removed the official “Alex Jones Channel” which had over 2 million subscribers.

Pinterest removed the official InfoWars board after “multiple people alerted the company to policy violations”. Spotify removed his podcasts claiming that his podcasts are a violation of “hateful content”. Stitcher has strongly claimed that Alex Jones has “harassed or allowed harassment of private individuals and organizations”

None of the companies are however clear on what the specific instance is that led them to terminate his account.

The fact that it is extremely DANGEROUS to see the Social Media Giants colluding to shut down different political viewpoints can’t be ignored.Most suggest that it is because of his views on 2012 Sandy Hook, which Alex Jones has retracted long ago and apologized.

Leftists also claim that Alex Jones’ retraction is unaccepted. However, MSM does that all the time.

On July 26, Forbes published a fake article stating “Jones pushed a child to the ground”. Forbes changed the sentence on their slanderous article after realizing that the person pushing the child wasn’t Alex Jones.

But whether you like Alex Jones or not, the biases and immorally shutting down right-wing opinions by the mainstream left-wing giants controlling 90% of the social media outlets are something to be fearful of.

President Trump Calls for EU to Drop All Trade Barriers Before Official Visit

On Tuesday, the President sent a tweet suggesting that the EU “drop all Tariffs, Barriers and Subsidies” after he imposed a response tariff on EU earlier this year.

Just a day before his meeting with European Union President Jean-Claude Juncker, Trump made clear that the ultimate goal for a free and fair society is free trade.

 

The European Union is coming to Washington tomorrow to negotiate a deal on Trade. I have an idea for them. Both the U.S. and the E.U. drop all Tariffs, Barriers and Subsidies! That would finally be called Free Market and Fair Trade! Hope they do it, we are ready – but they won’t!

After Trump slapped tariffs on aluminum and steel imports from several U.S allies including the EU, the EU in response retaliated by implementing tariffs on several American products that includes blue jeans, whiskey and motorcycles.

Trump then threatened to impose a whooping 20 percent tariff on all European automobile imports. The EU rightfully has warned that it would “be harmful first and foremost for the US economy” as the US citizens would be the ones to ultimately pay higher prices for the products.

Earlier this month, Trump also called the EU “a foe” during an interview for its trade policies against the United States. Trump also made a sarcastic statement saying “Tariffs are the greatest!” in response to the ones the EU has been imposing on the United States.

 

Tariffs are the greatest! Either a country which has treated the United States unfairly on Trade negotiates a fair deal, or it gets hit with Tariffs. It’s as simple as that – and everybody’s talking! Remember, we are the “piggy bank” that’s being robbed. All will be Great!

North Korea Disassembling Key Launching Facilities at the Sohae Satellite Launching Station

According to the reports made my 38 North, North Korea has started disassembling key launching facilities at the Sohae Satellite Launching Station. It was reportedly done in response to the Singapore Summit between North Korean Dictator Kim Jong Un and President Donald Trump that happened in June 12th.

The facilities are believed to have been disassembled at launchpad. According to the satellite imagery from July 20th, the rail-mounted processing/transfer structure has been moved to the middle of the pad, exposing the underground rail transfer point—one of the few times it has been seen in this location.

An image from two days later shows the continued presence of the crane and vehicles. Considerable progress has been made in dismantling the rail-mounted processing/transfer structure. One corner has been completely dismantled and the parts can be seen lying on the ground. In both images the two fuel/oxidizer bunkers, main processing building and gantry tower remain untouched.

The North Koreans have also reportedly started to disassemble a vertical engine test stand. 38 North adds:

The rail-mounted environmental shelter—which hadn’t been moved since December 2017—has been razed and removed, the older fuel/oxidizer bunkers are in the process of being razed, and portions of the test stand’s upper steel framework have been dismantled and its paneling removed.

President Trump also made a tweet about this situation saying, “A Rocket has not been launched by North Korea in 9 months,” Trump tweeted. “Likewise, no Nuclear Tests. Japan is happy, all of Asia is happy. But the Fake News is saying, without ever asking me (always anonymous sources), that I am angry because it is not going fast enough. Wrong, very happy!”

David Hogg Did A Bizarre ALL-CAPS Tweet Aiming At President Trump

After President Donald Trump issued a warning to Iranian government with an All-Caps Tweet, many users came after him, but it was particularly David Hogg that gave a bizarre reply.

To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!

The government of Iran also tried to ridicule President Trump saying that Trump couldn’t do a “Damn thing”.

But the most outlandish of the tweets came from Parkland activist David Hogg. He copy pasted most of President Trump’s Tweet and tweaked the latter part of his tweet to threaten the president himself saying that the president himself would face consequences if he threatened the United States.

 

To US President Trump: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!

NRA Donations 3X after Parkland Shooting

Reports from the Federal Election Commission show donations to the NRA tripled from January to February.

In January, the NRA collected almost $248,000 in individual contributions.

In February, they collected more than $779,000.

The nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics tracked itemized contributions that include donations of $200 or more by an individual in the days before and after the shooting and found that in the two weeks after the shooting, itemized contributions to the NRA doubled from the previous two weeks. On top of that, the number of people contributing in the seven days after the shooting increased almost 500% from the week before.

Since the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, the folks on the left have constantly targeted the NRA instead of pointing out the failures of the law enforcement and the FBI, mental illness, bullying culture or the perpetrator himself.

THROWBACK: Alex Jones Obliterates Piers Morgan on Gun Control

In 2013, Piers Morgan invites Alex Jones to discuss his petition to deport Piers to the UK for using his show as an outlet for this anti-gun rhetorics in the wake of the shooting at Sandy Hook.

Alex Jones created a petition that states, “his effort to undermine the Bill of Rights and for exploiting his position as a national network television host to stage attacks against the rights of American citizens.”

Piers Morgan, who is a UK citizen, brings his outlook by stating the comparatively low number of gun deaths in the UK. Jones then call him out for only mentioning gun deaths in the country where guns are already banned and not mentioning the overall deaths in the UK, which is the main point of discussion.

Jones states that even though the gun sales have spiked in the US in the past 9 years, violent crimes have dropped by 20 percent. Meanwhile, in the UK, the overall violent crimes have tripled in the past 15 years.

Although Piers didn’t get to talk much as Alex would be pounding him consistently, but whenever he did, he repeatedly tried to compare “Gun Crimes” of US to the “Gun Crimes” of the UK. Alex repeatedly corrects his false equivalency by stating that the goal of a nation should be to reduce overall violent crimes and not just “Gun Crimes” as it is obvious that the number of gun crimes would be insignificant in the countries where guns are banned. The question is whether banning guns would decrease the overall crime rates in the country.

The interview mostly turned out to be Alex getting emotional and shouting at Piers. Although Piers remained unusually calm, he was unable to refute Alex’s statistics and whenever he tried, Alex would bury his with facts.

It definitely would have been more appealing had Alex been as calm as the first 90 seconds and hit Piers with facts without getting emotional. But we know how Alex is.

https://rumble.com/embed/v1zguj/Jones’ petition garnered more than 106,000 signatures at White House’s official website. A counter-petition, which demands the U.S. “Keep Piers Morgan in the USA,” had more than 9,000 signatures. Both the petitions have been removed later.

FIFA May Deny The US Bid To Host The World Cup

According to ESPN, FIFA, the governing body of Football (Soccer) says it may deny a joint US/Canada/Mexico bit to host the 2026 World Cup because some of the members do not like Donald Trump.

“The North American bid has had to counter an anti-American sentiment that stems largely from actions taken by President Donald Trump’s administration.” was told to ESPN by some sources close to the members of FIFA.

ESPN points that those demur have come from nations affected by Trump’s temporary travel ban, which also happen to be state sponsors of terror organizations whom Trump allegedly referred to as “sh***ole” countries.

The Daily Wire wrote:

A report on the Qatari World Cup construction effort from the International Trade Union Confederation alleged that thousands of migrant workers were mistreated and even killed while building Qatar’s World Cup stadium. The same report also suggests that Qatar is using a “guest worker” system that is akin to slavery, using indentured servants sent from other countries, like North Korea, India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, who are stripped of their passports and forced to toil in horrific conditions.

The answer is simple: FIFA’s issues with the United States don’t stem from Donald Trump, he’s merely a convenient excuse. They’re really angry about the American Department of Justice, which indicted more than two dozen of FIFA’s top officials for bribery, racketeering, and corruption — a conspiracy that originated with FIFA’s decision to award the 2018 World Cup to Russia and the 2022 World Cup to — yes — Qatar.
