Afghanistan "news"

If the Afghanistan exit shows us anything, it's that you can't trust the "news."

No, that's not it. Not, "don't trust." The so-called news is a deceptive crock of misdirection that the people presenting it don't and can't recognize as a manufactured pile of designed tactics controlled by puppeteers.

It is worse than misinformation. It is manufactured by people with agendas who want you to believe a set of statements that have nothing to do with truth or reality. They use panels of people who say what they want them to say, without understanding or any connection to the situations on which they comment. People in tailored suits, coiffed, in air conditioning, opining away with the key tell, "I think..." We should care what you think? You same people on this new subject? The guy on the bar stool next to us at happy hour has as much relevance.

Like a John Grisham or Clive Cussler political novel, we're getting 100% Wag The Dog. Watch that movie if you have not already, it's an eye opener. The news panels issue series of statements designed to throw you off the scent. Made to keep you well informed of what isn't so. Ready to turn on a dime and keep you believing that NOW you know.

We will be out of Afghanistan by August 31. Oh, now it's August 30, the people in charge knew all the time, issued phony statements, and just misled us (and every talking head in the nation) for our own good. To make the project fly. To cooperate with our pseudo allies the Taliban. To help deceive ISIS. Say what?

No, not ISIS. ISIS-K. ISIS what? Who is that? No one asks. It simply is. Where have they been for the past decade... or week? Media lapdogs just lap it up, as do the Generals on the tube, and everyone swallows. Including you.The new ISIS, with a new name. Now at a theater near you. Is there an ISIS-B? Will you swallow when they make an appearance? How many are there? As Mr. Obama used to speak of, with reverence, The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, or ISIL, remember them? You can look it up (but when was the last time you looked up anything, not on the Internet?) whose leaders "are people of misbelief and misguidance..." Let's just not go there.

The Taliban are controlling the roads and, well everything, these 6th century backward heathen barbarians. No, wait, they are spiriting out the Americans, by the thousands! Hooray for our side! But they had to keep it a secret. Uhh, whose report do you trust now? Do they know how to use all that gear we bought for them, that Mr. Biden turned over? While he is making every effort to disarm we citizens at home?

We do know our spy agencies can read newsprint from satellites in orbit. Do you really think they are not watching everything from space? Military gear is flowing across the borders to neighboring countries, the trashcanistans, for favors, cash, you name it. Have you heard any reports about that? You do recognize that you can turn on any channel and in 30 seconds, literally 30 seconds, and hear everything they are going to tell you. The Taliban have overrun everything, Afghan soldiers surprise collapsed, Americans are stuck, most got out, except some who might want to stay, atrocities are coming, we can project force over the horizon. the war is over, no it's not, we did the right thing/we're screwed (depending on station) the commies are coming. Did I miss anything? Now for the weather.

Biden Seeks to Outlaw LEGAL Gun Activity

As many of you know I'm a consultant to this group.

I produced this news release for them, out today --

 

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE • August 9, 2021 • Contact: Floyd Neeland • jpfo.org

 

The only thing illegal is the government’s plan

Biden Seeks to Outlaw LEGAL Gun Activity

There’s a reason it’s called “Lawful Commerce”

Congress wisely anticipated such unconstitutional acts

The Biden administration, frustrated with widespread failure of Democrats’ plan to Defund the Police and its predictable skyrocketing crime rates, is now seeking to repeal the federal “Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act.” This landmark 2005 law was designed to protect exactly what Biden and his team now seek to outlaw—legal activity.

“They avoid the tough, politically challenging task of going after the perpetrators of brazen outdoor daylight murders, who are often non-inclusive people of color in disadvantaged neighborhoods. It’s true but not politically correct to acknowledge, which is why CNN and mass media in lockstep do not,” said Alan Korwin, an award-winning author and consultant to JPFO.

Biden’s team has instead chosen to scapegoat fine, historic, capital-intensive employers and manufacturers of the firearms America depends upon to preserve peace and freedom. Mass media is playing along with this abhorrent scheme, by failing to point out the obvious:

1–The murderers are already heavily armed;

2–They don’t need brand new guns from retail outlets;

3–The “superb” existing background checks have had no effect;

4–Critics say the checks are largely a failed distraction (ask JPFO about that);

5–Most of all, ethnically non-diverse actors, operating in discreet, easily identified areas, not cities, are frequently known to law enforcement who provide little enforcement, to prosecutors who do little serious prosecution.

Long rap sheets are a hallmark of the few perps caught, and the problem.

Rather than face these known gross failures, which perpetuate the problems and obscene rates of assaults on innocent children, inner-city women and men, and partisan gang members, the power elite has assembled its leadership from the most anti-gun-rights states—all seven of them. They’re attacking a primary law protecting the Constitution and fundamental rights of the American public, in place for nearly 2-1/2 centuries.

If this wasn’t so unfathomably bizarre it would be fiction, but it is not. The so-called “news” media has once again failed its ethical obligations and taken up a role as a mouthpiece for an openly corrupt central government and its unconstitutional proposals. Attached, the White House plan, verbatim, lacking a single mention of criminals responsible.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — FROM THE WHITE HOUSE [verbatim]

August 5, 2021

Readout of Senior White House Meeting with State Attorneys General on Efforts to Hold Gun Manufacturers Accountable

Today, Domestic Policy Advisor Susan Rice, White House Counsel Dana Remus, and Director of the Office of Intergovernmental Affairs Julie Rodriguez hosted a virtual convening with attorneys general from seven states and the District of Columbia to discuss policies and strategies for holding gun manufacturers and dealers accountable for wrongful conduct that contributes to the supply of firearms used to commit gun crimes. This convening is the first of two meetings with state and local officials that were announced in President Biden’s comprehensive plan to reduce gun crimes, including by supporting local law enforcement, investing in proven community violence interruption efforts, and stemming the flow of guns used to commit crimes.

President Biden has repeatedly and forcefully called for Congress to repeal the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA). This law gives gun dealers and manufacturers special immunity from certain liability for their products, hindering the public’s ability to address the epidemic of gun violence through the use of civil litigation in the same way they have been able to with the tobacco and opioid industries. As the President said in the Rose Garden this past April, “Imagine how different it would be had the same exemption been available to tobacco companies who knew and lied about the danger they were causing.” During today’s discussion, attorneys general shared how PLCAA has served as a significant barrier to holding gun manufacturers and dealers accountable for unlawful conduct that led to shootings, homicides, and other gun crimes, and how repeal of PLCAA would enhance their ability to advance the public safety of Americans.

As directed in the President’s gun crime reduction strategy, participants in the convening also discussed how we can hold gun manufacturers and dealers accountable for unlawful conduct while PLCAA is still the law of the land. Attorneys general discussed the opportunity and barriers to using generally applicable state consumer protection and nuisance laws to take action against gun manufacturers and gun dealers under PLCAA’s predicate exception. They also discussed how state legislators could enact firearm-specific liability laws, like New York State’s new law, to potentially create new predicates allowing litigation to proceed under PLCAA.

Attorneys General:

  • District of Columbia Attorney General Karl Racine

  • New York Attorney General Letitia James

  • New Jersey Acting Attorney General Andrew Bruck

  • California Attorney General Rob Bonta

  • Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro

  • Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson

  • Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey

  • Connecticut Attorney General William Tong

    White House participants:

  • Susan Rice, Assistant to the President and Domestic Policy Advisor

  • Dana Remus, Assistant to the President and White House Counsel

  • Julie Rodriguez, Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Intergovernmental Affairs

AZ Illegal Safe House

This is a few blocks away from where I live in Arizona. I got the memo by email, same as you get these sorts of thing all the time.
It seemed impossible, so I did what any reasonable person would do. I drove over to see if it's true. It's true.

Here is the memo exactly as I received it.

Subject: Fw: ILLEGAL SAFE HOUSE

On Monday night, The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson investigated the Homewood Suites in Scottsdale, Arizona after receiving a tip that it was an illegal immigrant safe house. The hotel is located at 9880 N Scottsdale Rd.


When Conradson arrived at the hotel, every entrance was barricaded, and he had to park down the street. He walked up to the hotel and greeted some officers.

This is incredible.
There’s a safe house for illegal immigrants being secretly maintained without our knowledge – until now. Conradson did some digging.


Conradson: what’s going on here?
LES Officer: You actually need to leave the property it’s actually a closed hotel.
Conradson: Oh, so what’s going on?
LES Officer: This is a private property man.
Conradson: But what’s going on?
LES Officer: If you want to get information for that you need to go to endeavors.org.
Conradson: I heard that they were harboring illegal immigrants here. Is that true?
LES Officer: You can go to the endeavors.org website and they’ll give you as much information as they can.
Conradson: Who do you work for?
LES Officer: I’m contracted with LES, it’s a law enforcement contract service company.
Conradson: Why aren’t people allowed on the premises?
LES Officer: You can go to endeavors.org to get information for that other than that this is closed this is private property from the company that’s here.
The Gateway Pundit

Guess what the story behind Endeavors is…
ENDEAVORS.ORG is the website for Family Endeavors, a San Antonio nonprofit tied to the Biden administration. They received an $87 million no-bid contract in March to clothe and shelter illegal immigrants. They then received ANOTHER contract for $530 MILLION shortly after.

It’s all been masterminded by the Biden Administration right under the noses of Americans living in Scottsdale.

But there’s more. A Selrico Services food van pulled out of the parking lot. Selrico is a food service company that is also based in San Antonio. They must be contracted to provide food for those in this country illegally.

So not only are these illegal aliens being housed at taxpayer expense, they’re being fed at our expense too! They get all this free and then we’re sent the bill through taxation. Conradson wanted to find out who specifically was organising all this.


Conradson called the local police station since he could not get any answers from the representatives at the hotel.


Conradson: I would like to know what is going on at the Homewood Suites on Scottsdale Rd. and Mountainview. Do you have any information about what’s going on there?
Dispatcher: Nothing outside of the fact that it’s being monitored by ICE and that we have police presence there from other agencies 24/7.
Conradson: Who is managing the hotel?
Dispatcher: I don’t have that information exactly
Conradson: But ICE is in there 24/7?
Dispatcher: Yeah, it’s being monitored by them and outside agencies.
Conradson: Do you know what the outside agencies are?
Dispatcher: I think it’s just a mix of all Arizona state agencies.
Conradson: Are they communicating with you on how many people they’re bringing into Scottsdale, into the hotel?
Dispatcher: I don’t have any specifics on it
Conradson: Where do I find more information?
Dispatcher: You could try to look up any of the ICE numbers online and see if they give any further.
Conradson: Do you have any information on exactly what’s going on? I mean obviously, they’re harboring illegal immigrants, but do you know anything else?
Dispatcher: No we don’t have any further.

The Deep State inside Arizona is a part of this, and so is ICE and the police. It’s all one unified effort to keep this a secret from the American people.

Here’s exactly what is at stake.

This is atrocious. Over 600 MILLION DOLLARS are funding this operation to flood red counties with illegal residents and brand new Democrat voters, and it’s costing the taxpayers money and it’s putting the American people in DANGER.

Instead of protecting American citizens, officers are being paid by our tax dollars to protect non-citizens who are invading our communities.

The globalist elites who govern this country are attempting to change the population so that it votes in the way that they prefer.

They don’t care about any of the Americans currently living here, they just want to replace them with people from other countries.

And they’re doing their best to keep it under wraps.
So share this article far and wide to raise awareness about what they’re doing, and let’s hope we can put a stop to this!

I hope you read this article completely. These are our tax dollars going to waste...so the Democrats can get more votes.

AZ Ballot election audit

Although complete results of the AZ Ballot election audit have not been released yet, state Senate testimony did reveal several interesting facts on 7/15/21, televised -- some number of apparently counterfeit ballots were received (wrong paper, samples shown). And 74,000 more absentee ballots were received than were sent out to voters by the Secretary of State's office, which keeps detailed counts. Hmmm. I blew a gasket when I heard that! Smoking gun, OMG. Sen. president Karen Fann, conducting the hearing in a very very matter-of-factly way asked how they could account for that apparently startling item and the respondents (former Secy of State and highly regarded Ken Bennett and one other) said they could not, no plausible explanation seems to exist, they are looking further but it doesn't look good. It was all calm and collected, very businesslike. The auditor's standard of "beyond reproach" was operating, even if their name is non-plussed from a PR standpoint (Cyber Ninjas). Everything they did is on video multiple times. Recall CNN's mantra, "there is no fraud, big lie, total waste of time and taxpayer money, these are not the droids you're looking for," before any results were known. Double Hmmm. The hearing moved on to the next unusual result. There were many. The AZ Senate hearings are all recorded and available for public viewing online.

Mass Media missed this story for reasons that were unclear at press time.

Big Tech and Big Government

While we weren't watching and with their direct complicity, Big Tech became a Big Government public utility.

  The cover story that they're private companies is nonsense, or at least no longer true in an absolute sense. Monopoly oligarchs have set themselves up in convenient easy chairs, with plausible deniability and ongoing campaigns to maintain their status.  The ability of people in Congress to ask them questions, as the entire nation witnessed on TV, is near zero. The ability of Congress to get hard answers from the Tech oligarchs is below zero, they got snow jobs. This is largely indicative of the fact that Big Tech is in control, not Congress.

When outfits can prevent the U.S. president from addressing the electorate while he is still in office, or candidates from freely discussing any subject of their own choosing, or the medical establishment from circulating news about medical news, cures or palliatives for a plague, and the outfits are deliberately spreading misinformation and censoring real information on anything they wish, they are in every sense the new telephone company, network TV, the U.S. Postal Service and newsprint all rolled into one. By a trick of fate they have §230 for protection, never intended to be thus. Turn on the lights and face the fact. Do not try to say this to the nation on TV, social media or in newspapers, you will be erased by "private companies," or worse, put into a world of hurt, if you get a glimmer of light.

Biden's tough stance on immigration

I was asked why Mr. Biden and his crew have not taken a tougher stance on illegal immigration.

Believe it -- Biden and his team have a very tough stance on illegal immigration --

1- Facilitate as much illegal undocumented immigration across the southern border as possible;
1a- Prevent the Attorney General or anyone from the other party investigating or interfering;
1b- Allow the other party to rant about it on TV, as long as they don't do anything to restrict the flow;
That's tough.

2- Fund the flood with all the federal money needed;
2a- Force local, state and federal authorities to cooperate, even in Texas -- which could theoretically forcibly stop and turn back invaders, even if a small number are women and children;

3- Provide infrastructure in the way of vehicles, safe houses, parenting, airfare, food, clothing, medical attention;
3a- Get churches to cooperate with sanctuary and placements nationwide, pay churches a fee for every person they handle;

4- Provide mass media with press releases that promote entry, in reverse language, thus: "Borders are closed, 6,000 a day get in" sort of double speak. Have the head of national security and immigration say this right into the CNN and other cameras, without winking.
4a- Back it up with local advertising in places of origin encouraging migrations in huge numbers. Distribute pre-printed "Biden Sent Me" T-shirts with Biden's campaign logo so it's clear to other wanna-be immigrants, which mess media will ignore, even when the pictures appear night after night. Media will use it without question, because they are brainwashed traitorous collaborators and idiots. No plans to shoot the reporters as traitors are planned. They instead throw parties and hold awards dinners for themselves.

5- Lie about any other story lines or truth that leaks out;

6- Admit nothing, deny everything, make countercharges. That was Nixon's wisdom, and it works just fine;

7- Claim to send Kamala Harris to the border, but only send her to a nearby town, not so near, for a meal, some meetings and a photo opp. Media lapdogs will cooperate. Arrange for some platitudes that avoid the mass immigrations being staged and funded. She has such a cute smile!

These are very tough stances for Biden and his crew to take, with straight faces. They're good.

What was the original question?

JPFO Gun Confiscation Clock Loses 2 Minutes

Democrats’ Bills HR8 and HR1446 Threaten Freedom

JPFO Gun Confiscation Clock Loses 2 Minutes

Pair of unconstitutional bills threaten all Americans

 

So-called “gun control” isn’t crime control

Usual scheme to use maniacs to induce disarming public is perverse

Ignoring ban on infringement should be grounds for removal from office

 

Unnamed

 

The JPFO Gun Confiscation Clock has moved two minutes closer to midnight, as Democrats vote on a pair of bills that attack citizens but ignore criminals. At nine minutes to midnight, rights Americans have always had and enjoyed are rapidly shrinking, with confiscations planned and written into bills waiting in the wings. 

“Democrats and the hard-core leftists pushing them have no understanding or respect for the Constitution and its safeguard limits on legislative actions,” said Alan Gottlieb, CEO and Board Chairman of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, jpfo.org. “They act as if they are under no constraint, and with the power they now wield, they pose a direct threat to our Republic and way of life,” he said.

 “Forcing decent Americans to wait for increasingly long times to purchase legal property will not affect armed criminals, who are the real problem,” added Alan Korwin, a widely published author and consultant to JPFO. “Criminals remain armed and are ignored by these bills, while regular people are infringed, making matters worse,” he observed. First-time criminals looking to get arms at retail will be forced to shop elsewhere—the black market—which they do already. Armed criminals are ignored by these illegal federal infringements. JPFO believes if any action is needed it should encourage finding and removing hardened armed criminals from society, not more paperwork for the bureaucracy.

Isn’t Voting More Dangerous Than Guns?

Democrats and Republicans Miss This Answer:

Isn’t Voting More Dangerous Than Guns?

Electing the wrong people can kill millions

 

Giving the vote to people who aren’t adult citizens compromises everything.

A person who is free to vote MUST have
all other rights intact.

 

Democrats and “Progressive-Leftists”—a synonym for socialists and now virtually the same thing, seek to expand the U.S. electorate to people who traditionally cannot bear arms, or vote. Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, jpfo.org, understands this is a terrible idea that can literally destroy the nation. Only qualified adult U.S. citizens can legally vote, or bear arms. 

“All the Bill of Rights for all citizens,” has been a benchmark of this organization since our Founder Aaron Zelman first voiced those words decades ago. There is a reason felons and prisoners in prisons cannot vote. There is a reason people in the country illegally cannot vote. The Democrats’ plans to provide the vote to these people, expressed in the pending bill HR1, defeats the balances of power our Republic must preserve. Letting 16-year-old children vote, before they are mature, knowledgeable, or still under the influence of biased educators in lower grades, is only a good idea if you seek to seize power and rule the country as a monolith. 

Owning and possessing a firearm, or many, is a stark undeniable symbol of freedom. A person qualified to vote MUST be free to exercise that and all the freedoms of The U.S. Constitution. Granting “partial freedom” or “partial citizenship” is a truly corrupt political practice. If you don’t trust a felon enough with the right to arms, you certainly can’t trust that person with the right to vote. Voting is far more dangerous. It can send armies of warriors overseas and domestically to engage in slaughter. Do 16-year-old children understand this? Do you?

VOTING MUST BE RESTRICTED!

CNN’s Wolf Blitzer In Error—Mass-Media Drumbeat Misleading:

VOTING MUST BE RESTRICTED!

Onlyqualified adult U.S. citizens may vote in U.S. elections

Peoplemustprove their identity to cast a valid ballot

Ballots without guaranteed validity must not count

NOTE: Voting rights and gun rights are co-equal civil and human rights

 

CNN news anchor Wolf Blitzer is leading a charge voiced by mass media nationwide, saying repeatedly, “We want as many people as possible to vote.” (–Wolf Blitzer, CNN 3/15/21). He echoes a seductive left-wing deception, which dies horribly if you substitute a different basic right, “We want as many people as possible to have a gun” —

 We want as many adult U.S. citizens, who are legally entitled to vote—or bear arms.

“As many people as possible” is a destructive falsehood, a Democrat’s talking point that undermines our Republic, and could destroy true democracy. Should we add... educated, to voting and guns? Half the country believes, with evidence and reasonable suspicion, that many people cast ballots that cannot be legally cast. Cases of voting fraud have been repeatedly discovered in the courts, which critics say is the tip of the iceberg.

 No one corrected Blitzer. His deception spread to the world unbalanced, uncorrected, prejudicial. Only proven citizens can vote. Broadcasters often make statements like this, or worse, without correction. This abuses the public trust. The scrutiny we demand for the right to arms should parallel what we require of proper upstanding citizens to vote.

Wolf’s abuse should jeopardize CNN’s license. With Democrats’ cancel-culture warriors actively admitting non-citizens into the country, without ports of entry or even court dates, concerns exist about the integrity of the electorate, let alone the voting process. Leftists may charge suppression, but that’s distinct and apart from deleting fraudsters. In excess of 1.8 million “ghost” voters were found in 353 counties across 29 states, in the recent Judicial Watch study. Fulton County, Ga., had a registration rate of 109%, exceeding eligible residents. Similar problems were found in Penn., Nev., Mich., and elsewhere. Former mayor Pete Buttigieg is under investigation for issuing “community ID” cards to illegal aliens that could pass for ID to register for voting. Pete—people legally registered to vote can legally keep and bear arms. Are you OK with that?

The main objection Democrats have to requiring ID at the time of voting is that Blacks (and others of color) will be denied the vote. This is a total insult. It presumes Blacks can't drive, visit doctors, get bank accounts, rent or buy homes, get vaccine shots, fly, basically anything. How do they convince Blacks, or anyone, that this is true? Democrats are a Blacks' worst friends.

An Open Letter to “The Squad”

In cooperation with JPFO, Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, http://www.jpfo.org, we released this letter and news release over the weekend:

-----------

March 19, 2021

An Open Letter to “The Squad”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Rep. Ayanna Pressley
Rep. Cori Bush
Rep. Ilhan Omar
Rep. Jamaal Bowman
Rep. Rashida Talib

We have been in touch with Arizona’s Republican delegation to the House of Representatives, and they agree it would be commendable if members of the congressional “Squad” took daring action and joined JPFO in denouncing genocide, on Holocaust Remembrance Day, April 8, 2021.

More than one million Muslims are currently experiencing physical and cultural genocide at the hands of the Chinese communist government.

As always, it is consciously played down by mass media to the public, a true statement. This is also not the only atrocity happening right now on the planet. Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, a 30-year-old civil-rights group, is uniquely aware of this abomination people perpetrate. Our advocacy of individual civil liberties recognizes that the main perpetrator of genocide is government.

It’s the truth.

Your voices are louder and heard more clearly than others in Congress. This is also true. Reach across the aisle, ignore the political and religious walls.

Join us in publicly renouncing any form of and all calls for annihilating people en masse for any reason. We eagerly await your reply.

 Sincerely,

Alan Gottlieb, Chairman & CEO, Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership
Alan Korwin, Editor, The JPFO Bill of Rights Sentinel
Richard Busch, JPFO Ambassador
J.D. “Duke” Schechter, JPFO Ambassador

In addition, JPFO issued a news release announcing the outreach, and awaits a response:
