One question that keeps being asked however, why did Trump choose to ban a bunch of Muslim countries that never attacked America? How did the President decide?   The answer might surprise you. President Trump is cribbing off of ex-President Obama’s notes. From the ultra-right wing… wait, Mic.com? How, though, did the Trump administration choose these seven Muslim-majority countries? […]

But that was different… Although the Obama administration currently refuses to temporarily pause its Syrian refugee resettlement program in the United States, the State Department in 2011 stopped processing Iraq refugee requests for six months after the Federal Bureau of Investigation uncovered evidence that several dozen terrorists from Iraq had infiltrated the United States via the refugee program.jj

Obama and his five presidential predecessors all used their executive powers to temporarily ban certain immigrants, including Muslims from entering the United States. Funny how there was no outrage then.  From The Washington Examiner: Obama has barred huge groups of potentially dangerous immigrants from entering the United States at least six times, undercutting his claim that

The Dems were in power back then. It was good. The Dems are out of power now. That makes it bad.   When it comes to immigration and national security (and every other policy, for that matter), even many conservative Republicans can’t hold the ground plowed by liberal Democrats just 15 years ago. Only a

Better off in Syria than in Detroit.  Nearly 10,000 refugees arriving in the United States over the next 11 months were relieved to learn that they would not be sent to Detroit, sources report. Michigan Governor Rick Snyder suspended efforts to relocate Syrians displaced by the country’s civil war earlier this week “until a more

Not good news. It would be interesting to know what the underlying cause is for this in Idaho.  Here are the rankings of the Top 9:  Alaska Wyoming Montana New Mexico Idaho Utah Oklahoma South Dakota Colorado All but Oklahoma have the same thing in common. Weird.  Idaho’s investment of nearly $1 million last year to

If cities don’t want to follow the law, pull their tax incentives. Let the people of the city pay for the illegal actions.  The measure sponsored by Rep. Greg Chaney, R-Caldwell, would effectively bar immigrant sanctuary-city policies and deny state sales tax revenue to any jurisdiction that adopted such a policy. The bill was introduced

Idaho GOP Rep. Raúl Labrador, R-Idaho, in a statement issued Sunday, praised President Trump’s new executive order suspending refugee arrivals and barring entry to the U.S. from seven Muslim-majority countries, calling it “bold” and saying,  “President Trump has finally taken necessary national security and public safety measures regarding refugees and non-immigrants seeking entry.” Labrador did,

Too bad there’s a bigger commitment to illegals than to legal students.  Washington State University’s new president has reaffirmed the institution’s commitment to all students, including illegal aliens, following President Donald Trump’s executive order on immigration.  The 90 day order issued Friday bans travel to the US by citizens from 7 predominantly Muslim countries.  The

Leaders of America’s top universities from California to Ohio are offering protection and sanctuary to their international students in response to President Donald Trump’s immigrant travel ban, while calling it “sweeping, indiscriminate and abrupt.”  Read Full Article

The FedEx driver who rescued the American flag in a viral video won’t be punished, the company announced after the deed turned out to be immensely popular with consumers.

Iran has defied the United Nations (UN) with a ballistic missile test in Semnan, located 140 miles east of Tehran. But the test violated UN resolution 2231, which states that the country cannot conduct these missile tests. Fox News reported: The Khorramshahr medium-range ballistic missile flew 600 miles before exploding, in a failed test of a

Here’s the original story.  Via CNN, Justice Department will not defend executive order on travel restrictions: The acting Attorney General Sally Yates has told Justice Department lawyers not to make legal arguments defending President Donald Trump’s executive order on immigration and refugees, according to sources familiar with the order. Yates, an Obama appointee who is serving

Trump is after the Hawks!  The latest targets of US President Donald Trump’s ire are fellow Republican Senators John McCain & Lindsey Graham, who Trump says should focus on important issues “instead of always looking to start World War III.”  Read Full Article

It’s ok for a Dem to say these things. They don’t mean it.  Once upon a time, more than two decades ago, then-President Bill Clinton used a State of the Union address to slam the number of illegal aliens who’d been allowed to stay in the United States – sounding an awfully lot like now-President Donald
