TRUMP WATCH: 5.13.17 - The US Courts and the Marxist revolution

The US Courts and the Marxist revolution - Bill Wilson - www.dailyjot.com

 

One of the reasons the Marxist revolution is taking hold in the United States is the leftist who have been appointed into the federal court system. Radical organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union and extremist partners like Southern Poverty Law Center and the Council on American Islamic Relations (and all of their offshoots) know exactly the favorable courts in which to file their complaints to advance their Constitutionally hostile agendas. More and more we have seen liberal appointed judges twist the language of the law and bend it into something it was never intended. These unelected oligarchs have had a profound effect in undermining the Constitution and ripping the fabric of our society.

 

It is cautiously welcome news that President Donald Trump is fulfilling a campaign promise by nominating 10 conservative judges and other law professionals to the federal courts. The judges have been nominated to fill court of appeals positions in the Sixth Circuit, Seventh Circuit, Eighth Circuit Eleventh Circuit, and district courts in Idaho and Western Oklahoma as well as the Court of Federal Claims. These are in addition to the appointment of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court and the nomination of Amul Thapar of Kentucky to serve as a judge on the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer says these judges were chosen for their "commitment to upholding Constitutional principles."

 

These nominees need to be approved by the Senate, which will likely be no small task. In the past when Democrats controlled the Senate, leftist court appointees often sailed through the confirmation process with little or token opposition. In this divisive political environment, the minority party, the Democrats, will likely put up a fight on each nominee because the courts are where they get the laws they don't like changed. We have witnessed this first hand in recent months with the brakes put on Trump's immigration executive orders by leftist judges. Despite the law clearly allowing his immigration policies, and other presidents doing the same things without court opposition, these judges hold to the extreme left's political beliefs and legislate from the bench. But the left doesn't see it that way.

 

The first volley in the Senate opposition comes from Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY), saying, "the president is intent on continuing to outsource the judicial selection process to hard right, special interest groups...the president should work with members of both parties to pick judges from within the judicial mainstream, who will interpret the law rather than make it." Many woes of this nation come from an agenda-driven court system where law is supposed to be weighed rightly on the scales of justice. Proverbs 11:1 says, "A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight." Trump is trying to balance the wicked scales and deceptive weights of judges who twist the law against itself to advance an agenda.

 

The healthcare ruse - Bill Wilson - www.dailyjot.com

 

The House barely passed a bill last week touted as the end of socialist healthcare in America. The American Health Care Act now moves to the Senate where politicians are hopeful it will pass and then be signed into law by President Donald Trump. Those who have their party hats on and are about to celebrate the end of socialist healthcare in America, shouldn't be so quick to hand out party favors. The American Health Care Act is a replacement of socialist healthcare, not a repeal of it. Yes, it gets rid of most of the tax penalties for not participating, and it gives some tax credits to encourage participation, but it still is a socialist concept where the government has its nose in your private health business.

 

This bill defunds Planned Parenthood-for a year. That's enough for all the pro-life politicians to say they voted to defund Planned Parenthood, the world's largest provider of abortions. But it's just for a year. And the way the abortion mill gets around the ban on tax-funded abortions is by separating out Planned Parenthood's abortion franchise from other so-called health services it ostensibly provides. Government funding after the year's delay can be given back to Planned Parenthood so long as the money doesn't directly go to performing abortions. One could argue convincingly, however, that any money going to Planned Parenthood assists them in performing abortions-just keeping the lights on helps them.

 

While the replacement of socialist healthcare is a step in the right direction, the government should not be involved in mandating healthcare. It should be in the business of limited regulation for safety purposes, and it surely should regulate the drug companies for their massive campaigns of drug pushing and trying to disclaim their products by listing all the side effects-as if that should get them off the hook when people become even sicker after taking these drugs. If the government is concerned about 20 million people who can't afford health insurance, it should figure out a way to provide for that 5% of the population without taking over the industry. Which brings me to the point of the Church in America.

 

When I was growing up in rural Ohio, before there was Medicare, Medicaid and health insurance for all, people were on their own. When they got sick or a tragedy occurred, our community, led by our community church, helped them-whether they were members or not. Then along came the government with welfare, healthcare, childcare and whatever other form of care. The churches seemed to gladly give up their responsibilities to the government. In that, a tremendous blessing of loving and caring for one another was mostly lost. Today, most of us don't even know who our neighbors are. In Matthew 25, Jesus taught the parable of feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, and visiting the sick. In Verse 40 he said, "Inasmuch as you have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me." Just saying.

 

 Comey out of the swamp - Bill Wilson - www.dailyjot.com

 

President Donald Trump has fired FBI Director James Comey and the Democrats are crying foul. They say Trump is interfering with the investigation into his campaign that the Russians helped him win the presidency. Calling it "Nixonian," was Senator Bob Casey (D-PA), and Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) wanted Comey to come testify immediately about the status of the "Trump-Russia" investigation. House Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) said the White House was "brazeningly interfering" in the probe. Comey's firing comes after months of lightening-rod misinformation given by Comey in several investigations-including one of Hillary Clinton and also one on alleged Russian interference in US elections.

 

As usual, it's not wise to believe what is being reported. Here we have an FBI Director that was appointed by the ex-"president." Think about all those who the ex-"president" appointed to help him execute his Islamic Marxist agenda and what type of people they were-Valarie Jarrett, Lois Lerner, Sally Yates, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Chuck Hagel, Janet Napolitano, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Jack Lew-not to mention all the radical Islamists that were put in high places at Defense and Homeland Security. This kind of underscores the old saying 'Birds of a feather flock together', doesn't it? In all reality, Comey should not have been appointed to such a position in the first place. And he has proven it.

 

Let's just take a common sense non-political look at two of his major investigations-both of which contributed to his ouster. The Hillary Clinton email scandal is a dead to rights violation of federal law. Clinton and her cronies admittedly passed secret information through unsecured channels--not just once or twice which would indicate it could have been a mistake-but hundreds of times through a system she created. Meanwhile, she was fleecing foreign governments scores of millions in Clinton Foundation donations for access to government officials. These are undisputed facts, yet Comey couldn't make them stick. If you or I had done this-or anything close to it-we'd be in jail for a long time.

 

The Russians have tried to influence elections for generations, but there wasn't much discussion about it by Democrats during the Cold War. The Russians did not hack or steal the recent US election. It is a typical political bait and switch investigation to take attention off the real issues. For example, the Russian ruse is not even comparable to what the ex-"president" and Hillary Clinton did to defeat Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, or to work with the Muslim Brotherhood in overthrowing several stable governments in the Middle East during Arab Spring-also undisputed facts. Comey is gone because he deserves to be. Proverbs 28:18 says, "Whoso walks in integrity shall be saved: but he that is crooked in his ways shall fall at once." May those who do righteously be strengthened and quickened to prevail.

 

 Discerning the NBC interview with the President - Bill Wilson - www.dailyjot.com 

 

NBC News' Lester Holt interviewed President Donald Trump Thursday night in his first major news interview since the firing of FBI Director James Comey. Holt obviously was pushing the mainstream news media narrative that the Russians influenced the presidential election and that Trump had a role in it. It was one of those interviews, where Holt, in his questioning, used terms such as "unsubstantiated" to imply that Trump was a liar about wire tapping claims and that he and Russia were not in collusion. Nowadays there is a Russian colluder behind every door and under every bed at the White House, according to the media and the extreme leftists who are trying to overthrow this government.

 

Immediately after the interview, NBC wrote a story that changed the contextual meaning of Trump's answers by tampering with Trump's quotes. Trump said in the interview, "This Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made up story, it is an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should have won...This was an excuse for having lost the election." NBC omitted the part about Russia being a made up story and an excuse for losing the election. Instead it only quoted the last part of what Trump said--"'Cause all it is, is an excuse but I said to myself, I might even lengthen out the investigation, but I have to do the right thing for the American people." The story purposely hid the counter-narrative to the left's own unsubstantiated claims.

 

The story also omitted that Trump said the media misrepresents him with stories containing "false sources or sources that don't exist because of the way the media is," also adding context to Trump's answers. Then NBC proved his point by quoting unnamed "legal experts" and by actually serving as a platform to give the Democratic opposition a counter voice to the Trump interview by showing their hypocritical anger over Comey's ouster. Just last week, these same people were calling for Comey to be fired over mishandling Hillary Clinton's email scandal and for not accusing Trump of colluding with the Russians. Now that Trump fired Comey, these extremists want a special prosecutor named to impeach Trump.

 

During the Cold War with the Soviet Union, the radical left generally ridiculed anyone who thought there was a communist threat and downplayed any accusation that Russia could possibly be infiltrating the US or influencing our election process. Today, when they want to pin the blame on someone for losing an election they thought they were going to win with ease, it's the Russians. And when they want to undermine the ability of Trump to govern, they tie him to Russia. And the news media, as exemplified by the NBC news story about the interview, is willing to alter quotes that change the context of the story to prove their point. This is deception and as Jesus said in Matthew 24:4, "Take heed that no man deceive you." Don't believe what the leftist media is reporting. They change the truth in the name of truth to foment rebellion.
