Trump is proposing 25% tariffs on 1300 Chinese imports which, if actually collected, would be $50 billion. This is said to be in retaliation for theft of intellectual property from US companies. If this proposal is implemented, part will be paid by Americans for higher prices for domestic products that use the imported materials. We expect that this proposal will not materialize as currently being discussed. [...] |

Judicial Watch obtained 32 State Department documents that show the Obama administration gave at least $9 million to a leftist front group in Albania backed by billionaire George Soros. The US taxpayer money was used in a Soros operation to give the Albanian socialist government control over the country's judiciary - under the banner of 'reform,' of course. [...] |

The goal of 5G Wireless is to network with electrical devices in every home and business to track activities by monitoring energy-use patterns. The data will be used by an Energy Authority to issue directives and fines whenever you do something that is unauthorized. And, oh, yes, the radiation is unhealthy and operation of such a control grid is outrageously expensive. [...] |

The US Department of Justice revealed that border-crossers entering the US have an 88% chance of evading immediate deportation by claiming "credible fear" in their native country. Between 2009 and 2016 credible-fear claims increased from 3,000 cases to nearly 70,000 cases. [This obviously is a loophole placed into the law to defeat its announced purpose and, so far, neither Congress nor the Trump administration have done anything to change it.] [...] |

Dr. Mark Griffiths, a leading surgeon in London, says that the hospitals look like "war zones due to gun and knife crime epidemic." He said, “We used to look after people in their twenties. Now people are often in their mid to late teens and children in school uniforms are being admitted under our care with knife and gun wounds." There have been 50 people killed in London so far this year – 50. That’s an epidemic. [...] |

The head of Germany’s 2nd largest police union, Rainer Wendt, stated that authorities should be allowed to take children away from parents who express anti-Semitic views. He said, 'If children are raised to become anti-Semites we shouldn't be afraid to take them away from their families," and “Authorities need to act decisively [against anti-Semitism] including when the aggression comes from migrants.” He did not elaborate on how or when such measures would be enforced.

Authorities claimed that the nerve agent that poisoned a double-agent spy was produced in Russia, prompting the US, UK and other European countries to impose sanctions against Russia, turning up the heat on the cold war. The UK refused to allow a chemical weapons watchdog to inspect the specimen, despite Russia's request. Scientists at the Porton Down military research facility have been unable to establish exactly where the Novichock nerve agent used to carry out the Skripal attack was manufactured, which bolsters the suspicion that this could be a false flag attack.

The Mexican Senate passed a resolution to end cooperation with the US against drug cartels and immigration problems after President Trump ordered the National Guard troops to the border. Mexico rejected the "militarization" of the border and and refuses cooperation until Trump “acts with civility and respect.” [...] |

Residents of Deerfield, Illinois have 60 days to turn in their “assault weapons” and large capacity magazines, or face fines of up to $1000 dollars a day. Authorities justified the ban by pointing to the recent spate of mass shootings and the anti-gun words of the local high school students. Second Amendment advocates have vowed to fight the ban in court with the help of the NRA. [...] |
