Citizens Dedicated To Preserving Our Constitutional Republic
Attorney General Jeff Sessions said.
“We are not going to let this country be invaded!
We will not be stampeded!
We will not capitulate to lawlessness!
This is NOT business as usual.
This is the Trump era!," the Attorney General said.

This is a breaking news story:
President Trump confirmed that the USS Boxer shot down an Iranian drone today in the Strait of Hormuz.
“The Boxer took defensive action against an Iranian drone which had closed into a very near distance, approximately 1,000 yards, ignoring multiple calls to stand down and was threatening the safety of the ship and ship’s crew,” President Trump said while speaking at a White House flag presentation ceremony with Netherlands Prime Minister Mark Rutte.
President Trump noted, without elaborating. "US has 'destroyed' an Iranian drone in Strait of Hormuz, The drone ignored warnings from USS Boxer to stand down as it neared the ship. “The drone was immediately destroyed. This is the latest of many provocative and hostile actions by Iran vessels operating in international waters. - The United States reserves the right to defend our personnel, our facilities and interests, and calls upon all nations to condemn Iran’s attempts to disrupt freedom of navigation and global commerce,
I also call on other nations to protect their ships as they go through the Strait of Hormuz and to work with us in the future,” he concluded.
Black Pastors Group Calls On Nike To Dissolve Relationship With colin kaepernick:
‘kaepernick’s Views On America And The Flag Are Fringe Opinions.'
2 hours ago by Sarah Taylor
*** Dumbassed- colin / 'colon' both ASSHOLES!! *** Bull
A group of black pastors has demanded that Nike sever ties with football player-turned-activist colin kaepernick over his political views.
The group has also called for the popular sportswear brand to reinstate its Betsy Ross flag shoes, which the company pulled after Kaepernick insisted were inappropriate as they were a throwback to the slave era.
What are the details?
The Coalition of African-American Pastors says that kaepernick’s thoughts — including those on the flag shoe design — are too far on the fringe for a company like Nike.
The group issued a blistering statement condemning kaepernick’s behaviors, adding that the activist represents “radical anti-American sentiment.”
Published in the Commercial Appeal, the statement — penned by Coalition President Rev. Bill Owens — demanded the company make the Betsy Ross flag shoes available for the public to purchase.
“Removing the Betsy Ross flag shoes at 'his behest' implies that your company shares his negative view of America, its founders, and the woman who designed the first flag,” a portion of the statement read. “…
For a long time, sports have been something that brings Americans together. Nike has been one of the companies we associate with ‘Team USA.’ Please don’t tarnish that legacy by continuing to cater to anti-American policies.”
Owens’ letter added, “Many of us marched in the civil rights movement of the 1960s and have an established record of civic activism. We represent a variety of races, ethnicities, and creeds. And we agree that
kaepernick’s views on America and the flag are fringe opinions, not shared by any of us, especially the African Americans who marched against segregation with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. In fact, we find kaepernick’s views to be ill-informed and offensive, especially to veterans and others who have served this country.”
Owens also warned that Nike is doing itself a disservice by associating itself with such “fringe opinions,” insisting that an affiliation with kaepernick has “tainted” the group’s view of the brand.
“How can we purchase the merchandise for ourselves or our families from a company that holds those views of our country?” Owens’ letter added. “If this is not the case, we urge you to make it clear that you respect the American flag, its people, and its Founders. We ask that you sever your relationship with kaepernick, who has become synonymous with radical anti-American sentiment. And we ask that you make amends to veterans by producing a select run of the Betsy Ross shoes for the benefit of the veterans groups and organizations that help military families.”
What else?
In an interview, Owens told the outlet that "the letter — which is to serve as a petition to Nike and its CEO — gained a warm reception across his board. We just don’t feel that it was fair that they would pull this flag because kaepernick opposed it, he opposes a lot of things,” Owens concluded. “We love this country, we love the flag, whereas there are some people who just find something to complain about anything.”
The Coalition of African-American Pastors used to be Memphis-based, the outlet reported, but is now based out of Henderson, Nevada, where Owens moved several years ago.
Border Deaths Under obuma Compared To President Trump.
7/20/19 By Hollie McKay
A gut-wrenching photograph late last month of a father and daughter in the Rio Grande – while attempting to cross from Mexico into the United States – sharply exacerbated existing tensions over the ongoing border and migration crisis dividing Americans.
The hand of a youth from Nuevo Laredo rests on the gate as he stops...
According to statistics compiled by the United States Border Patrol, there were 298 border deaths in 2017 and 283 in 2018, making it an average of 291 per year. The average yearly deaths under resident obuma stood at 372 and 382 under the Bush administration.
However, as an analysis by National Review highlighted, Trump also likely benefitted from a drop in overall illegal border crossings, a trend that was sparked during Bush’s second term.
“But the reality is that deaths at the U.S-Mexico border decreased after Donald Trump became president,” the analysis stated. “The fact remains that the totals from 2017 (298) and 2018 (283) are two of the lowest since 1999 – and there was no mass outcry in earlier years with much higher numbers.”
Indeed, the tragedy of border deaths has been happening for several decades. The highest number of border deaths on record, official data shows, was in 2005 in which the trek claimed 492 lives, seconded by 2012 in which 471 deaths were recorded by Border Patrol.
Fox News: Border deaths declined in Trump’s first two years in office, data shows.
The border situation continues to deteriorate, with thousands of illegal aliens demanding asylum into the U.S.
Many more try to cross illegally, being apprehended and released into the country.
Congress is close to passing a weak bill to help the issue—loaded with Demwitocrat traps to make the problem worse.
Meanwhile, Mexico is shaming our own lawmakers with a stunning show of support at the border.
Vice President Pence recently slammed Demwitocrats in Congress when he said that Mexico was doing more to help the border crisis than they were. He was 100% correct.
As more and more migrants bombard our Southern border, Demwitocrats in the House put their fingers in their ears and ignore it. They would rather see our nation fall apart, than do anything to fix this problem!!
For months, President Trump has called on Congress to pass a bill that would fix our immigration loopholes and provide funding for the border.
Demwitocrats instead have ran bogus investigations against him in the hopes of impeaching the president. Their lack of willingness has been shocking. And don’t think Americans haven’t noticed.
Now, after Trump threatened to take drastic action to deport millions, Demwitocrats are trying to pass a pathetic bill that neglects key funding. Worse still, they are trying to force through plans that would make our immigration system even weaker. President Trump has struck back with a threat to veto whatever they pass.
The White House threatened late Monday to veto a $4.5 billion House bill that would provide emergency funding at the border over concerns that legislation in its current form lacks certain funding and includes provisions thrown in by Demwitocratic lawmakers “that would make our country less safe.” [Source: Fox News]
The House bill refuses to provide funds for our detention centers. According to some reports, pukelosi is trying to put in provisions that will allow illegal immigrants and asylum seekers to use kids as props to bypass our vetting process.
Once again, Demwitocrats are trying to make the situation worse. Instead of cooperating with the president, they still want to undermine the border crisis. These these Are people nuts!! They are so corrupt, they won’t even pass a basic bill to help Americans!!
Meanwhile, Mexico announced even bigger steps they are taking to protect our border and fulfill their end of the deal.- “Mexico has deployed almost 15,000 troops to the US-Mexico border to curve migration flow,” CNN reporter Nick Valencia tweeted. “An additional ~2,000 National Guard elements have also been deployed across the country’s southern border with Guatemala & Belize.: MX Secretary of Defense Luis Sandoval.”
Mexico has already sent thousands of troops to secure their Southern border with Guatemala. They have pleaded to build more detention centers on their own land. Also, a new policy is being enacted that will require asylum seekers to apply for asylum in the first country they reach. For most, that is Mexico.
All this will significantly curtail the massive influx of migrants coming to the U.S. Hopefully, we could see the crisis come to an end.
None of this has happened because of Demwitocrats in Congress!!
If they had their way, we’d have no border!! Hundreds of thousands of aliens would invade our country. We’d be overrun. Our communities would be in even worse shambles!!
When they are asked to pass a simple bill, they use it as a chance to make the problem worse.
Yet Mexico, which historically hasn’t done anything to help our immigration problems, is doing an incredible job of helping. After President Trump put 'pressure' on them!!
What does that say to you about the kind of demwitocrates we have in Congress? They have less concern for Americans than the Mexican government.
Trump has effectively cooperated with the likes of North Korea, the Middle East, and Mexico.
Yet members of his own government continue to cause serious problems!!
How more pathetic can the Demwitocrats get? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
The situation at our border continues to have issues, and tensions among oncoming travelers and ICE remain high.
You’d think most of D.C. would be working to solve this problem. But to most demwitocrats, it doesn’t appear this way.
To the concerned citizens, President Trump has been the only leader in Washington to make our border a priority. He’s fought hard to get Congress to provide funding. The president has even done the impossible by securing significant support from Mexico.- But the job is far from over!!
Until our border is 100% secure—through legislative changes and/or a wall—we still face serious national security concerns.
President Trump is not sitting back and forgetting about this and as usual, he’s being proactive in making sure every last citizen can sleep easy.
From Breitbart:
“An additional 2,100 troops, including 1,100 active-duty service members and 1,000 Texas National Guard soldiers will be deployed to the U.S.-Mexico border ‘in the next several weeks,’ the Pentagon announced.”
Thousands more troops are moving quickly to help at the border.
These new active-duty personnel will provide “aerial surveillance, operational, logistical, and administrative support” to Customs and Border Patrol, which we desperately need.
These servicemen include active-duty military as well as one thousand Texas National Guard soldiers, so it’s a pretty significant force.
As other states refuse to address the border situation, Texas has always stepped up to back the president.
The reinforcements will provide significant support to our over-taxed and burdened Customs and Border agents … their job is already tough enough as it is!
Our agents have been begging for help for months, as they continue to see more and more aliens at our border’s doorstep!
Well, to some extent this ought to be a relief for them.
Over time, the hope is the problems we’re facing down South will get better.--DUH!!
We’ve got a LONG ways to go but President Trump is making sure—no matter what happens—the American people and our safety comes first. He's KEEPING AMERICA GREAT!
Thank you Gov. Abbott and Thank you President Trump!
We absolutely Should build a wall on our southern border with Mexico!!

All hell broke loose when Cory Booker attacked the military in this terrible way.
Cory Booker is one of the top Demwitocrat candidates for President.
And like every candidate in the field, Booker is racing as far to the left as fast as humanly possible.
But he just tripped himself up and now all hell is breaking loose after he attacked the military in this terrible way.
Booker made his initial swing through Iowa to court voters in advance of the 2020 Iowa Caucus.
It did not go well. Because he told the crowd that he endorsed Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s communist “Green New Deal.” That insulted every veteran by comparing the fake news global warming hoax to battling the Nazis.
Breitbart reports:
Friday at a campaign event in Mason City, IA, Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) compared Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Ed Markey’s (D-MA) so-called Green New Deal to fighting Nazis.
Booker said, “We have to deal with this. Our planet is in peril, and we need to be bold. It’s one of the reasons I signed on to the resolution. I co-sponsored the resolution for the Green New Deal. There’s a lot of people blowing back on the Green New Deal. They’re going, ‘Oh, it’s impractical, oh it’s too expensive, oh it’s all of this.’ If we used to govern our dreams that way, we would have never gone to the moon.”
He added, “We need to be bold again in America. We need to have dreams that other people say are impossible. We need to push the bounds of human potential. Because that is our history. When the planet has been in peril in the past, who came forward to save the earth from the scourge of Nazi and totalitarian regimes? We came forward. Who came forward to save the planet or continents from financial ruin? We came forward with the Marshall Plan.”
These comments will not hurt Booker in the primary.
Rank-and-file Demwitocrats look down their noses at the U.S. military.
So insulting the troops’ fight against the evils of Nazism may win him votes in a Demwitocrat primary.
The problem is, once you get out of the primary, regular Americans revere the U.S. military and don’t take kindly to politicians that put down their heroism.

A top Demwitocrat just confessed to this terrible act of treason.
The Demwitocrat Party has a major problem on its hands.
One of their rising stars is in hot water. That’s because a this Demwit just confessed to this terrible act of treason.
New Jersey Senator Cory Booker was judged to have turned in one of the stronger performances from the last Demwitocrat presidential debate.- But to qualify for the debate in the fall, Booker has to gain two& support in four verified polls. Currently he sits short of that number.
He's trying to drum up support by staging publicity stunts to appeal to left-wing voters.
However, Booker crossed the line by aiding and abetting five illegal aliens to enter the United States after they were told to wait in Mexico after making an asylum request.
The Daily Caller reports:
Democratic New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker crossed the border into Juarez, Mexico, to assist asylum seekers in their efforts to reach the United States on Wednesday.
According to a series of tweets from Booker’s press secretary Sabrina Singh, the 2020 presidential candidate crossed the border from Juarez to El Paso in order to “help escort 5 asylum-seekers and try to prevent them from being sent back to Mexico.”
Singh noted that the visit was not made public in order to guarantee the safety of the asylum seekers, adding, “Cory was able to observe the crossing, interactions with federal immigration authorities, and see the disastrous impact of President Trump’s cruel immigration policy.”
Demwitocrats are fighting off the perception that they support open borders.
They will lose that argument every time.
When Americans see a presidential candidate violating the law to facilitate an illegal alien invasion, there is no other conclusion than the fact that the Demwitocrat Party has made open borders their mainstream position on immigration.

James Mattis got the order about the caravan that every American was waiting for.
The migrant caravan is testing President Trump.
Thousands of migrants are massing on the Southern border preparing an invasion.
And President Trump just gave James Mattis the order about the caravan that every American was waiting for.
Breitbart reports:
President Donald Trump has given Defense Secretary Jim Mattis the authority to allow troops at the Southwest border to perform “military protective activities” he deems necessary to protect troops and border patrol agents, according to a White House memo viewed by Breitbart News.
Those activities include “a show or use of force (including lethal force, where necessary), crowd control, temporary detention, and cursory search,” according to the memo, which was signed on Tuesday by White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.
“Department of Defense personnel shall not, without further direction from the President, conduct traditional civilian law enforcement activities, such as arrest, search, and seizure in connection with the enforcement of the laws,” it added.
Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said "despite the new authorization, the current missions have not yet changed and that troops remain unarmed except for those whose specific job is to protect other deployed troops.
Despite what the fake news media says, the caravan is filled with violent individuals."
Video in Mexico showed thugs storming fences and overrunning Mexican military and law enforcement.
Reports also surfaced that the migrants threw rocks and Molotov cocktail bombs.
Americans want to see the border secured and are thrilled to see President Trump take the steps necessary to achieve this important goal.

Politico reports:
Acting Defense Secretary Richard Spencer has authorized the additional deployment of 1,100 active-duty troops and 1,000 Texas National Guard soldiers to the U.S.-Mexico border, the Pentagon announced today.
They will join some 2,500 active-duty and 2,000 National Guard troops already there, for a total force of 6,600 on the border mission.
The new active-duty troops will arrive “in the next several weeks” and will provide “aerial surveillance, operational, logistical, and administrative support” to Customs and Border Patrol, Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Chris Mitchell said in a statement.
The increase in active-duty forces is required due to a “shortfall in volunteer National Guard personnel” conducting the same missions, Mitchell said.
Border arrests fell in June after Donald Trump worked out a deal with Mexico which included Mexico deploying thousands of troops along their own border to prevent illegal aliens from traveling through Mexico to the United States.
The deployment of additional U.S. troops is another measure the President is taking to tackle this illegal immigration crisis.
**** Our President IS 'KEEPING AMERICA GREAT' **** Bull

James Mattis gave the order about the migrant caravan that had Trump celebrating!!
The migrant mob marching toward the Southern border is one of the dominant stories of the 2018 election homestretch.
Americans are horrified to watch the Democrats and the media invite the migrant invasion.
And now James Mattis gave the order about the migrant caravan that had Trump supporters jumping for joy.
The media is pushing the biased fake news that they are asylum seekers.
Vice President Mike Pence revealed that the President of Honduras told him leftist groups of Venezuela organized and funded the caravan.
President Trump has sent the military to the border to stop the migrant mob invasion.
His critics claimed it couldn’t be done.
But then Secretary of Defense James Mattis stepped up and ordered 800 more troops to the border.
CNN reports:
Defense Secretary James Mattis is expected to sign deployment orders as soon as Thursday that could send 800 or more troops to the border with Mexico to help border patrol authorities stop a caravan of migrants from Central America moving through Mexico to enter the US, according to three administration officials.
The officials tell CNN final details are being worked out including where the troops will come from and their specific tasks.
It is not yet clear if all or part of the new deployment will be federally activated National Guard forces or active duty troops.
The troops will not engage in lethal operations to stop the migrants. Instead they are expected to provide fencing, wall materials and other technical support at several key points along the border where it is believed the migrants may try to cross.
Donald Trump gave the military the go-ahead on one mission that no one could believe.
Donald Trump took office promising to rebuild America’s military into a fighting force that’s respected around the world. & President Trump accomplished that goal.
And now President Trump Trump gave the military the go-ahead.
President Trump caused conniptions in the Washington, D.C. Swamp last fall when he ordered troops to the Southern Border to help stem the flow of the illegal alien invasion.The Fake News Media howled that it was an election year stunt that would be soon forgotten.
And once again, the Fake News Media was wrong.
An additional 2,000 troops are being sent to the border to provide logistical support so the Border Patrol can concentrate on stopping illegal aliens from crossing into the country.
