GOOD FOR THEM!

 Burglar’s hearse blocked by neighbors of elderly man who killed him.

May/3/018  By Lia Eustachewich  

 

 Neighbors of the senior citizen who killed a burglar that broke into his home blocked off their street Thursday to prevent the career criminal’s funeral procession from passing by, according to reports.

 Tensions were high as the group stood their ground to prevent the hearse carrying Henry Vincent’s body from passing by the home of Richard Osborn-Brooks, the 78-year-old who killed Vincent, after Vincent and another man broke into the senior’s home April 4.

 There was a heavy police presence in town for Vincent’s funeral. Police said the procession wasn’t expected to pass by Osborn-Brooks’ home.

 Police tried to usher media away from the church ahead of time after the hostile crew threatened “big trouble” if journalists were there when the hearse arrived.

 Outside the church where Vincent’s casket was brought, angry mourners pelted journalists with rocks and eggs and threw water at the crowd, according to the Guardian. One photographer was punched in the face.

 Real nice folks - huh?

 “There is the possibility that they might bring the body down in a hearse first and do a pass-by and then go back and have the actual funeral elsewhere,” one resident, who parked near Osborn-Brooks’ home in Hither Green, told the Guardian.

 The senior citizen initially was arrested on suspicion of murder charges but then released without charges.

 The community was divided in the wake of Vincent’s death:

Neighbors defended Osborn-Brooks as having acted in self-defense!

 Of course, relatives and friends of the dead 37-year-old dad of three demanded justice in his slaying.

 A memorial for Vincent — a career criminal who’d been busted for scamming elderly citizens out of cash — set up outside the septuagenarian’s home has been repeatedly desecrated

YOUR Tax Dollars Fund App That Helps Illegals!
5/3/18 by: Judicial Watch Staff
Without your consent, you have been funding a George Soros backed group that developed an app to help illegal immigrants evade justice, which includes dangerous criminal aliens. Judicial Watch obtained key documents that tell the story.
From Judicial Watch:
"An open borders group that has benefitted from U.S. taxpayer dollars and is funded by leftwing vile billionaire George Soros launched a smartphone application to help illegal immigrants avoid federal authorities.
The app, Notifica (Notify), is described in a Laredo, Texas news article as a tool to protect immigrants living in the U.S. illegally by utilizing high tech and online social communications.
With the click of a button, illegal aliens can alert family, friends and attorneys of encounters with federal authorities “Immigration agents knocking at the door!” the news story states.
The group behind the app is called United We Dream, which describes itself as the country’s largest immigrant youth-led community. The nonprofit has more than 400,000 members nationwide and claims to “embrace the common struggle of all people of color and stand up against racism, colonialism, colorism, and xenophobia.”
Among its key projects is winning protections and rights for illegal immigrants, defending against deportation, obtaining education for illegal aliens and acquiring “justice and liberation” for undocumented LGBT “aliens and allies.”
Illegal aliens encounter lots of discrimination, which creates a lot of fear, according to United We Dream. “We empower aliens to develop their organizing skills, and to develop campaigns to fight American justice and for aliens to take over!”
United We Dream states on its website, adding that this is achieved through immigrant youth-led campaigns at the local, state, and federal level."
This is the obuma legacy on parade, as Soros and his lefitsts can abuse taxpayers and aid and abet criminals who are violating federal law.
This is the sort of games that go on in the swamp, and exactly what Americans voted against in the 2016 election.

BOMBSHELL Reveals All About comey’s “Attorney”
May/3/18 True Daily Staff
The Columbia law professor, james comey used as an intermediary to help leak details of sensitive memos worked as an FBI “special government employee” for at least 19 months, during which time he repeatedly defended the FBI director in media interviews amid the killary clinton email probe.
Fox News first reported last week that Daniel Richman was hired as a “special government employee,” or SGE.
Records reviewed by Fox News now show he signed the agreement as early as June 30, 2015.
The former director previously told Fox News that Richman left the FBI in February 2017, meaning he served there for well over a year.
Sources familiar with Richman’s FBI status said he was assigned to “special projects” by comey, and had a security clearance as well as badge access to the building.
Richman told Fox News in an email last week that he was working as an SGE on an unpaid basis.
In August 2015, his projects were expanded to include “an examination of the implications of federal investigations being brought to state and local prosecutors.”
comey’s memo leak contact worked at FBI for over a year, defended him in media on clinton probe.
FBI records show that as a special government employee, Richman would "serve at the pleasure of the Director comey," with an initial term of one year. Richman's stated responsibilities included the use of encryption by terror suspects -- known as "Going Dark."
During this time, a review of media reports between July 2015 and Feb. 2017 shows Richman gave multiple interviews defending comey's handling of the clinton email case, including the controversial decision to reopen the probe shortly before the presidential election.
He was typically identified as a law professor, and sometimes as a policy adviser to comey.
Government transcripts indicate Richman was sent talking points about the FBI's handling of the clinton investigation. Those talking points attempted to compare and contrast clinton's use of an unsecured personal server exclusively for government business with the case of retired Gen. David Petraeus, who shared classified information with his biographer and mistress Paula Broadwell, as well as the case brought against the late Sandy Berger.
The former national security adviser under resident clinton pleaded guilty to the unauthorized removal and retention of classified material from the National Archives.
Since Richman’s time at the bureau, Republican lawmakers have taken interest in his role – specifically in helping comey leak the contents of at least one memo documenting his private discussions with President Trump to the media, after Richman left the bureau. Richman first emerged last year during Senate testimony as the former FBI director’s contact for getting that information out to the media, to kick-start the Russia special counsel investigation.
The comey memos are now the subject of an inspector general review over the presence of classified material.
Incidentally, another “special government employee” who has come under scrutiny was clinton aide huma abedin. Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, among others, previously questioned abedin's special status that allowed her to work at the clinton State Department and private-sector entities at the same time.
In an email, Fox News asked Richman a series of questions about his work for comey as an SGE, including if he worked unpaid between June 2015 and February 2017, and if he engaged with the media about the clinton email case or other bureau matters at the request of FBI personnel including comey.
Fox News also asked whether Richman volunteered to media outlets that he was working for comey as a special government employee when he gave interviews about the clinton probe. Richman did not respond Wednesday to the email questions.

The FBI also has not responded to questions submitted Wednesday by Fox News.
During his Senate Intelligence Committee testimony in June 2017, after his firing, comey did not volunteer that Richman was also an FBI employee.
During a recent interview on Fox News, comey said "it wasn't relevant" because Richman left the FBI in February 2017. comey said he had no other special government employees, and Richman's job dealt with terrorist communications as well as law enforcement data.
The leaders of the House judiciary and oversight committees, meanwhile, are asking the Justice Department to turn over documents about Richman’s FBI status and his handling of the memos.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., made the request in a letter on Tuesday to Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
comey’s lawyers -- former U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald and David Kelly -- also got some of the memos, but comey maintains they were returned once classified information was identified.

1.) North Korea Is Huge
5/03/2018 TTN Staff
No Crystal Balls here at TrumpTrainNews, so this could change, but no president has gotten this far with North Korea ever!
Not only has President Trump secured the release of several prisoners, he called their bluff in a way that has never happened before.
Now they are back at the negotiating table, with an end of the Korean War in sight.

DACA Should Be Overturned! A New Lawsuit Might Succeed in Doing That.

  May/2/018  Hans von Spakovsky

A lawsuit filed Tuesday by Texas and six other states may finally result in the long-overdue termination of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which was created without legal authority by resident barry obama in 2012 to allow children brought into the U.S. illegally to temporarily remain here under certain conditions.

 The lawsuit does not address the question of whether allowing the roughly 700,000 illegal immigrants protected from deportation under DACA is a good policy or a bad one. Instead, the suit contends correctly that obuma exceeded his authority under law and under the Constitution to create DACA without the approval of Congress and without taking other required steps.

 Whatever the outcome of the suit, the ruling seems certain to be appealed and wind up in the U.S. Supreme Court.

 President Donald Trump announced in September that he wanted to phase out the program beginning in March, but federal judges blocked him from doing so after lawsuits were filed to keep DACA in place.

 The lawsuit filed Tuesday against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in the U.S. District Court in Brownsville, Texas, correctly says DACA must be invalidated because obuma had no legal right to create the program “without congressional authorization.”

 The states contend that if Congress wants to, it has the authority under the Constitution to create whatever program it wants for the illegal immigrants affected by DACA. But the president doesn’t have that power acting alone.

 This is a critical point. Under the Constitution, the president can’t change laws strictly on his own authority just because he thinks such a change is a good idea that will benefit the nation. Congress is a co-equal branch of government and must approve new laws.

 If this were not the case, we could have one-person rule by the president—destroying the checks and balances between branches of government that are a key part of the separation of powers in the Constitution and that safeguard our freedom.

 The state of Texas was joined by Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, South Carolina, and West Virginia in filing the lawsuit Tuesday.

 In addition to lacking congressional authorization, the seven states say DACA should be thrown out because it;

1.Violates federal immigration law.

2. Was implemented without the notice-and-comment procedures required for all substantive government regulations and policies under the Administrative Procedure Act.

3. Violates the “Take Care” Clause of the Constitution—the provision that requires the president to “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.”

 DACA essentially gives a free pass to illegal immigrants who arrived in the U.S. before turning 16 by June 2007, granting them “lawful presence” with access to a myriad of government benefits, including work authorizations and Social Security benefits.

 The lawsuit filed by seven states claims that DACA is just as “contrary to federal law” as the 2014 Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) program, also created by Obama.

 The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals halted DAPA in 2015. That decision was affirmed by a divided Supreme Court when it had just eight justices, following the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.

 The DAPA program gave illegal immigrants who were parents of children who were American citizens (usually because the children were born in the U.S.) or whose children were legal permanent residents the same type of amnesty and benefits as the DACA program gave to children brought to the U.S. illegally.

 But as the 5th Circuit noted when it stopped the implementation of DAPA, letting a president exercise such power “would allow [the president] to grant lawful presence and work authorization to any illegal alien in the United States—an untenable position in light of the intricate system of immigration classifications and employment eligibility” under federal law.

 Texas and the other states involved in the successful lawsuit against DAPA had threatened to amend their lawsuit and add a claim against DACA. But when the Trump administration rescinded DACA—announcing it would not issue or renew DACA permits starting March 5 this year—the states dismissed their DACA lawsuit.

 The seven states revived their lawsuit Tuesday to counter the errant injunctions blocking Trump from ending DACA that were issued by U.S. district courts in Mexifornia, New York, and Washington, D.C.

 In January, a Mexifornia federal judge blocked Trump’s decision to end DACA.

A federal judge in the nation’s capital recently issued another decision that the seven states argue “took the remarkable additional step of vacating the executive’s decision to wind down DACA, granting summary judgment that the wind-down was substantively unlawful … and ordering the Executive to continue issuing new DACA applications as well,” although that judge stayed his order for 90 days.

 In addition to all of the legal claims against DACA, the seven states point out that the obuma administration’s overall refusal to enforce immigration laws “caused a humanitarian crisis.”

 The states cite a 2013 federal court decision that said the obuma administration “encouraged international child smuggling across the Texas-Mexico border” because even though the federal government arrested human smugglers, “it completed the criminal conspiracy … by delivering the minors to the custody” of their parents who were in the country illegally.

 By promoting human trafficking, the obuma administration helped “fund the illegal drug cartels which are a very real danger for both citizens of this country and Mexico,” the lawsuit filed Tuesday says.

 The states want the U.S. District Court to declare the original 2012 DACA program invalid. They also plan to file a motion asking the federal court to issue a preliminary injunction stopping the federal government from issuing or renewing any DACA permits in the future.

 The seven states assert that their “lawsuit is emphatically about the rule of law.” The “policy merits of immigration laws are debated in and decided by Congress,” not the executive branch, which “does not exercise a lawmaking role.”
