Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 11:24pm: INSTANT JUSTICE: ISIS Terrorist Tries Planting IED — It Blows Up In His Own Face.
5/10/18 Justin Caruso
A new video from the Iraqi Army Aviation shows a terrorist attempting to plant an IED in Iraq.
This terrorist gets instant justice when the bomb he’s trying to plant blows up in his own face.
WATCH: https://www.liveleak.com/view?t=9zfnH_1525696479
According to the LiveLeak description, the incident took place in Badush, Iraq.
Honestly, this scum got exactly what he deserved. If you plant a bomb hoping to hurt someone else, getting blown up yourself is pure justice.
I guess this thug sort of did a good thing in a way, killing himself so our brave American servicemen and women didn’t have to waste American bullets or bombs getting him.
Let’s hope that more terrorists are as stupid as he is and start taking care of themselves so America and our allies don’t have to.
This video comes as Trump tweeted that five leaders of ISIS were captured Thursday.
Five Most Wanted leaders of ISIS just captured! Donald J. Trump 5/10/18

The Department of Justice announced Thursday it has filed a lawsuit against a Colorado corporation for allegedly discriminating against U.S. workers.

The complaint alleges that in 2016, Crop Production discriminated against at least three United States citizens by refusing to employ them as seasonal technicians in El Campo, Texas, because Crop Production preferred to hire temporary foreign workers under the H-2A visa program.

“In the spirit of President Trump’s Executive Order on Buy American and Hire American, the Department of Justice will not tolerate employers who discriminate against U.S. workers because of a desire to hire temporary foreign visa holders,” Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a statement. “… Where there is a job available, U.S. workers should have a chance at it before we bring in workers from abroad.”

This is the first complaint filed stemming from the “Protecting U.S. Workers Initiative,” which was launched on March 1.

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 8:14pm: Trump Is Quietly Dismantling obumaDON'Tcare.
05/11/18 by: TTN Staff
Steve Forbes recently stated in a piece for Fox News, that President Trump is working wonders at fixing out failing health care system. Something our members of Congress didn't have the courage to do.
From Fox News:
Since obumaDon'tCare’s passage and failed implementation, patient premiums and out of pocket expenses have gone way up, not down as promised. Consumers now have less options in terms of policies and benefits to choose from, not more as they were told. Countless patients can no longer see their doctors or be treated at local facilities of their choice.
On the campaign trail, candidate Donald Trump said he would work with a Republican Congress to repeal obumaDon'tCare so that patients and doctors, rather than bureaucrats and unelected boards, would have more control over individuals’ health care decisions.
He also vowed to roll back government obstacles to bring new medicines to market faster, speed generic drug approvals, and address the high costs of insurance premiums and prescription drugs, all to reduce unsustainable health care costs.
Detractors of President Trump like to highlight that obumaDon'tCare is still in existence, despite Republicans controlling both houses of congress.
President Trump has quietly gained the upper hand on several crucial health care reforms including the repeal of obumaDon'tcare's individual mandate, the laws core, in last years tax bill.
Another victory is the repeal of obumaDon'tCare's independent payment advisory board, aka the obumaDon'tCare death panel.
Naturally the media gives him no credit for these achievements.
Friday, President Trump will address health care reform again and the impact of drug prices will surely be included as a part of that speech. The changes that are already underway spurring greater competition which will help further drive down costs without sacrificing new medical innovations, or bringing new treatments to market.
Several of the most significant reforms have come from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the agencies housed within it, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
America has needed a leader like President Trump. The selfless pursuit of fixing our broken systems is something really incredible!

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 5:51pm: U.S. Monitoring Potential for Violence at Israeli Embassy Opening ‘Minute by Minute’.
Officials recognize potential for violence, but emphasize preparedness.
U.S. officials are closely monitoring the security situation in Israel ahead of a historic ceremony celebrating the opening of the new U.S. embassy in Jerusalem, according to senior Trump administration officials.
Senior administration officials acknowledged the potential for violence as armed protests by Palestinians continue along Israel's border with the Gaza Strip, but emphasized their preparedness and close coordination with Israeli security organizations.
The opening of the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem became a reality when Trump made good on a campaign promise to relocate the embassy from its longstanding perch in Tel Aviv to Israel's capital city of Jerusalem. Monday's celebration is expected to attract more than 800 dignitaries, officials, and others.
The move has splintered U.S. allies, some of whom have praised the move and some who have objected, warning that such a recognition of Jerusalem of Israel's capital by the United States would further foment violence and make it more difficult to broker a peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians.
The Trump administration has objected to these arguments, telling reporters that Hamas terrorists and their supporters are the ones chiefly responsible for engaging in violence in the region.
The security situation for the embassy opening is expected to be incredibly tight, U.S. officials said.
"In terms of potential conflicts, we look at this issue hourly," according to one senior administration official who was only authorized to speak on background. "We work closely with our law enforcement and security establishments here, and our own people here from the United States."
The United States also is working closely with Israel's security apparatus, the official said.
"We work closely with Israeli police, with the Shin Bet, and we measure the risk of demonstrations and violence minute by minute," the official explained. "And so we're confident that we're considering all potential issues and risks, and doing everything we can to mitigate those risks and to keep people safe."
A second senior administration official emphasized that the violence along Israel's border by Gaza is chiefly being perpetuated by Hamas terrorists seeking to further inflame regional tensions.
"We support the right for peace—to peaceful protest," said the second official. "But the operative word there is peaceful, and particularly as you look at what's going on down in Gaza, there are a lot of people who are legitimately protesting the very, very difficult humanitarian situation that they are enduring. But at the same time, you have some people flying kites as symbols of freedom, you have some people flying kites with Swastikas, and gas bombs attached to them, and that's intolerable."
"I think we need to blame that violence not on anything the United States has done or Israel has done, but firmly on Hamas," the official said.
U.S. personnel stationed in Israel are said to be excited about the impending move and efforts are already underway to relocate a number of officials to the new Jerusalem embassy, the officials said, adding that officials held a toast early Friday saying goodbye to the Tel Aviv offices.
"We just had a little toast where we all got together and toasted our last day as Embassy Tel Aviv on Monday," said the official. "People will be coming back to work as the embassy branch of the Jerusalem embassy, and we're all very happy and excited to be participating in such a historic event."
"People have been working literally around the clock in getting ready for our opening dedication ceremony on Monday," the official noted. "We'll be ready.
We are expecting about 800 people. We are expecting a healthy number of dignitaries from the Congress. You're aware of the presidential delegation; there'll be others."

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 5:21pm: Voters Celebrate Trump’s Foreign Policy: ‘Finally Got Somebody With Some Balls’!
5/10/18 8:24 pm BY: Paul Crookston
Voters in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, told CNN’s Martin Savidge that they were ready to vote for President Donald Trump again thanks to his strong foreign policy.
They expressed satisfaction with Trump’s foreign policy, from pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal to moving the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
"How are you feeling?" Savidge asked Ron Farster, a trucker who voted for Trump.
"Great," Farster replied. "Finally got somebody with some balls."
"Everybody's taken advantage of the United States," Farster added. "We've always been too easy and gave them what they wanted."
Brian Klingensmith said the Iran nuclear deal was the product of trusting rogue regimes too much.
"There were some bad deals made and, you know, you can't trust all these regimes that are out there," he said. "You know, think he's doing what he thinks he right."
Retired Air Force veteran Dan Wagner said Trump is becoming his favorite president from a foreign policy standpoint because he puts pressure on other countries.
"Reagan used to be because, what he did, he told Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, ‘Tear down this wall.’ Trump's more, ‘You don't, I'm going to smack you.’ And that's what the world needs," Wagner said.
One resident said Trump seemed too reckless, but Dawn Piper thought the opposite. She said America's national defense benefits from enemies not knowing what the next offensive move is.
Chris Tolliver said Trump sometimes "comes across a little harsh" and may cause conflicts with other countries, but it’s probably because he’s saying what others are thinking.
"That does worry me a little bit, the war part of it," Tolliver said. "He does come across a little harsh sometimes, but like I said, he says what everyone else was probably thinking, you know?"

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 5:06pm: Israel Decimates Iran as Tensions Mount.
5/10/18 by: Laurent Lozano
Jerusalem (AFP) - Israel carried out widespread deadly raids against what it said were Iranian targets in Syria on Thursday after rocket fire towards its forces it blamed on Iran, drawing global calls to avoid any further escalation.
The exchange of fire came after weeks of rising tensions and followed US President Donald Trump's decision Tuesday to withdraw from the landmark 2015 Iran nuclear deal, a move Israel had long advocated.
The bombardment led to immediate calls for restraint from Russia, France, Germany and Britain, while the United States put the blame squarely on Iran and stressed Israel's right to "self-defence".
Germany and Britain joined the United States in denouncing the rocket fire they also said came from Iran, while France reiterated its "unwavering support for Israel's security".

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 4:01pm: USCIS, Team Up to Stop Employers Illegally Hiring Immigrants.
New collaboration to better enforce Trump E.O.
5/12/18 by: Charles Fain Lehman
The Department of Justice and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will expand their cooperation to combat fraud, abuse, and discrimination by employers of foreign visa workers, DOJ announced Friday.
The two agencies announced a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), which will allow for better mutual training, collaboration, and sharing of information.
The end goal of this shared work is a crackdown on U.S. employers who hire foreign labor rather than employing Americans in line with federal law.
"In the spirit of President Trump's Executive Order on Buy American and Hire American, today's partnership adds to the Civil Rights Division's tools to stop employers from discriminating against U.S. workers by favoring foreign visa workers," explained Acting Assistant Attorney General John Gore of the Civil Rights Division.
President Donald Trump's executive order, signed in April of 2017, called among other things for a tightening of enforcement of federal laws governing immigration for employment.
Under the Immigration and Nationalization Act, any would-be economic immigrant is inadmissible unless his employer can show that there are not sufficient resident workers to fill the job, and that the would-be immigrant "will not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of workers in the United States similarly employed."
These limitations seem to be only questionably effective at preserving the upwards limits on economic migration nominally imposed by the INA.
An analysis from the Center for Immigration Studies found that more than 7 million immigrants received work permits between 2009 and 2014; a study from the Migration Policy Institute showed that awarded H-1B work visa petitions more than quadrupled the number of visas allowed under law.
The Justice Department has already implemented a number of initiatives aimed at enforcing the "Buy American and Hire American" order. The U.S. Workers Initiative, launched in 2017, has lead to dozens of investigations, a lawsuit, and settlements with two employers.
The initiative, DOJ said, has led to over $200,000 in back pay being returned to affected U.S. employees.
For its part, USCIS has created dedicated tip lines for H-1B and H-2B fraud, as well as expanding its rate of site visits. L. Francis Cissna, Director of USCIS, said that he expected the MOU would contribute substantially to USCIS's work to preserve the integrity of the federal immigration system.
"This agreement enhances the level of coordination among investigators who often work on the same issues at different agencies. Breaking down silos and working with our federal partners to combat employment discrimination will help ensure that U.S. workers have the advocate they need at the highest level," Cissna said.

A Trump supporter brought a crowd to their feet in Santa Clarita, California after she spoke about illegal immigration in front of the city council.
The Los Angeles County city was considering a motion to oppose California’s “sanctuary state” law.
The council heard from numerous residents, both in support and opposed, to the resolution which would see the city join the Trump administration’s lawsuit against the sanctuary state law.
One Trump supporter who spoke in front the council in support of the resolution brought the crowd to their feet.
MAGA Supporter smacks down the City Council for 2 straight minutes at tonight’s Sanctuary City Vote in Santa Clarita, CA.
“If you’re in this country and you are here legally, we support you,” the unidentified woman said. “We want you to be successful, but we want you to be American. We want you to respect our flag, we want you to make your you assimilate to our ways. We want to make sure you don’t start waving your flag, the flag from your country that you are telling us you don’t want to go back to.”
The crowd of mostly Trump supporters rose to their feet when the woman finished speaking, according to BizPac Review. The Trump supporters were represented by people of all colors who proudly wore MAGA hats, Trump T-shirts, or American flags.

“Americans are dreamers too,” another Trump supporter said. “We’re paying for welfare, for section 8, you're costing us our jobs. We’re paying for you. Respect Americans. This is America!” she said emphatically. “This is our home and this is our country.”
The crowd once again cheered.
Another resident spoke out against the allegations of racism that were made at opponents of illegal immigration. “It's not about racism, it's not about hate," Matt Thurman said according to the Los Angeles Times. "It's about people that are here illegally that got caught doing something wrong!"
Other Trump supporters rallied outside the city council chambers. They sang the national anthem and wore “We [heart] ICE” pins. Occasionally they walked over to pro-illegal alien demonstrators and called them “socialists” and told them to speak English!
The Santa Clarita City Council voted unanimously to support the resolution opposing the sanctuary state law.
It will also join the Trump administration’s lawsuit against the state over the law.

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 8:48am: Sanctuary City Populations Halve Under President Trump.

5/11/18 By 1600 Staff

In early 2017, Public Radio International reported that 92% of Americans live in sanctuary jurisdictions.

During the obuma era, the number of sanctuary jurisdictions grew by 650%.

President Trump vowed as a candidate to end sanctuary cities, and it appears that in spite of stiff resistance, it is happening!

The Federation for American Immigration Reform estimates that only 49% of Americans currently live in sanctuary jurisdictions, which is remarkable given that the number of sanctuaries has grown.

In the last year, states like Texas and Iowa have enacted laws against sanctuary cities and the noncompliance with federal immigration law by local authorities.

The shift shows a culture change, namely that areas that oppose the Trump administration’s push against Sanctuary Cities are changing their laws to block cooperation between local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities.

As President Trump’s Executive Order on the matter goes before the Supreme Court, a favorable ruling means that the federal government will withhold funds against jurisdictions that disregard the law, which will likely decrease the sanctuary city population even further, as localities that cannot replace federal funds comply.

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 7:24am: ‘You’re Going To The Jail!’ — Jeff Sessions Calls Out The Migrant Caravan By Name.
5:03 PM 5/7/18 Justin Caruso
Attorney General Jeff Sessions put the migrant caravan on notice Monday.
“If you help others to enter the U.S.A. illegally, that’s a felony,” he said during a speech in Mexifornia. “You’re going to jail.”
“Today, we’re here to send a message to the world that we’re not going to let the country be overwhelmed,” Sessions said in San Diego.
“People are not going to caravan or otherwise stampede our border. We need legality and integrity in our immigration system,” he continued. “That’s why the Department of Homeland Security is now referring 100% of illegal southwest border crossings to the Department of Justice for prosecution, and the Department of Justice will take up these cases.”
Sessions said the U.S. will put in place a “zero tolerance policy for illegal entry on our southwest border.”
“If you cross the border unlawfully, then we will prosecute you. It’s that simple.”
“If you smuggle illegal aliens across our border, then we will prosecute you,” the attorney general flatly stated.
“If you are smuggling a child, we will prosecute you, and that child may be separated from you, as required by law.
If you make false statements to an immigration officer or file a fraudulent asylum claim, that is a felony.

If you help others do so, that’s a felony also. You’re going to the jail.”

Comment by Bullheaded Texan on May 12, 2018 at 7:14am: Trump's Border Move Pays Off!

05/09/18 Washington Examiner by: Anna Giaritelli

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers have apprehended an additional 1,600 people attempting to illegally enter the country from Mexico since April 15 as a result of the deployment of National Guard troops to the southwest border, CBP and defense officials said Wednesday.

National Guard officials overseeing the border state deployments said troops helping monitor the international boundary have freed up more border agents to physically guard the border.

The result has led to a surge in the amount of criminal activity agents have stopped. The increased surveillance and communication between guardsmen and border officers also led to CBP intercepting an additional 451 people who were turned back before illegally entering the U.S.

Those numbers would tick up considerably if the 4,000 National Guard troops President Trump approved on April 4 are called on in a future request from CBP.
