Was There Valid Predication to Investigate the Trump Campaign?
By James Davidson, Former FBI Agent & President
of ProtectTheFBI.org
Much has been surmised about the validity of the FBI's
predication for the FISA warrant to intercept Carter Page as well as its
predication to investigate the possibility of Trump-Russia campaign collusion. Conservative
and liberal pundits are gearing up for the Inspector General's (IG) forthcoming
report examining exactly this. Both sides are prepping to spin the results
according to their political penchants. While I see no problem with an IG
review of whether the FBI lived up to legal standards as to how it handled
whatever intelligence comprised predication, the IG must refrain from
determining whether the right call was made, even if it opines that certain
information was insufficiently vetted or omitted. To do otherwise would send a
chill through the agency and adversely affect its ability (and willingness) to
safeguard the country. [more...]
You’re Attacking Free Speech if You Use it to Attack the Media?
By Karen Kataline
It’s tough to overestimate the arrogance of today’s media. While
behaving like fragile victims, they keep telling us they are too important to
be criticized. The “legacy media” has long ago dispensed with any pretense that
they are fair, unbiased or even truthful and they’ve gotten into a tizzy
because President Trump is attacking them again. He accused the New York
Times of committing a “virtual act of treason” for reporting that the
United States is substantially increasing cyber attacks on Russia. He says that
isn’t true and is concerned about the ramifications of such reporting. Times
publisher A.G. Sulzberger responded in a Wall Street Journal op-ed
saying that Trump’s attack “crossed a dangerous line” for criticizing the
press. What I believe is much more dangerous is that they take themselves
so seriously. [more...]
Democrats Don't Understand 'Medicare-for-all'
By Sally Pipes, President & CEO of the Pacific
Research Institute
This week, 20 Democratic presidential hopefuls
will gather in Miami for their first debate. One issue is sure to dominate the
discussion – "Medicare-for-all." The promise of free, government-run
health care has become quite popular among Democrats since Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., made it a major plank of
his 2016 presidential campaign. Four of his rivals for the Democratic
nomination have co-sponsored his "Medicare-for-all" legislation.
Several others have expressed support for something like it. Democrats may say
they want "Medicare-for-all," but multiple recent polls show they
have no idea what "Medicare-for-all" would mean for them – or for the
country. [more...]
The First Dem Debates
By James Hirsen
Democratic candidates who are vying to win the top spot as their
Party’s 2020 presidential nominee are set to take the debate stage on Wednesday
and Thursday of this week. The rhetoric of many who are chasing the
Democratic primary plum has been both confusing and unappealing to a sizable
segment of the voting population. Candidates that fall within this category
have, for the most part, been speaking to their far-left constituents,
especially those who tend to be clustered in East and West Coast urban enclaves.

Democrat "Dembates"
By Lowell Ponte
This week begins the Democratic presidential
candidate debates. The highlight of this beauty contest, however, may be
former beauty contest owner and now-President Donald Trump, who will be
doing a live running commentary, minute by minute, candidate by candidate, of
each debate. This week’s debate requires a successful 'Hail Marx' pass, do
or die. Each candidate desperately needs some incantation that will win
over both rich contributors and radical supporters. The most interesting
candidate is millionaire entrepreneur Andrew Yang, who perhaps in anticipation
of ending the Electoral College, says he may campaign via 'hologram'
in some states too unimportant to visit in person. I doubt that any of the
23 Democrats running for president "know what they're doing." I can
discuss the little-known oddities of many of these candidates and what they are
likely to do in this week's "debates." [more...]
The Next Housing Crash is Closer than You Think
By Crista Huff
A Profound Long-Term Housing Forecast (Baby
Boomers: Take note!)
Early this month, I read a 68-page report by Wall Street
analysts on population demographics, lifestyle trends and spending habits
that’s projected out several decades. What I read about real estate was so
significant – and in line with broad assumptions I’d been making about the next
housing crash – that I would be remiss if I did not share it with you. [more...]
One of Obama’s 10,000 Syrian Refugees Tried to Bomb a Black
Church in Pittsburgh
By Daniel Greenfield
“The best news is when you call get ready for jihad,” Mustafa
Mousab Alowemer wrote in a public housing project in Pittsburgh. “I will spill
my blood for the victory of my religion.” Northview Heights, the low-income
housing project, is 90% African-American. Or at least it was. Then a flood of
Syrian Muslim refugees showed up. Obama had promised to admit 10,000 Syrian
migrants in 2016. The terrorist who plotted a massacre at a black church was
one of them. [more...]
