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.

“All of these adults who left the United States without their kids, left based on a decision to leave their children,” Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said July 18 in an interview at the Aspen Security Forum. “So now we’re saying to them, ‘No, no, no, you have to take the children!’”
At least one Central American country wants the power to decide if the separated children should live in the United States, Nielsen said:
“We have to involve the other countries. You know, one of the Northern Triangle countries when I just met with them, said to me, ‘It’s not appropriate for DHS or the United States government to determine what’s in the best interest of the alien's child. We in our courts will determine what’s in the best interest of the child.’ So it’s very complicated.”
This is an infringement on America’s sovereignty and shouldn’t be tolerated.
ocasio-cortez began by bragging about her meeting with a Nobel Prize-winning economist and claimed her ideas could net the United States trillions of dollars.
“This is an excellent, excellent question,” she replied. “I sat down with a Nobel Prize economist last week — I can’t believe I can say that, it’s really weird — But one of the things that we saw is, if people pay their fair share, if corporations and the ultra wealthy — for example, as Warren Buffett likes to say, if he pays as much as his secretary paid, 15 percent tax rate, if corporations paid — if we reverse the tax bill, raised our corporate tax rate to 28 percent … if we do those two things and also close some of those loopholes, that’s $2 trillion right there.”
She also said it would take $3 trillion to $4 trillion and a carbon tax to create a “renewable energy economy” and claimed the Trump tax cut bill prevents the wealthiest Americans from paying “their fair share.”
This is ridiculous, especially after the strong Trump economy this quarter.
“I’m now 85,” ginsburg said Sunday in New York at a production about late Justice Antonin Scalia called “The Originalist,” CNN reported. “My senior colleague, Justice John Paul Stevens, he stepped down when he was 90, so I think I have about at least five more years.”
The liberal SCOTUS justice had kind words to say about her late colleague, despite their political differences.
“If I had my choice of dissenters when I was writing for the court, it would be Justice Scalia,” ginsburg said, describing the back and forth between the two that helped her develop her arguments as a “ping-pong game.”
Many liberals are closely following any change in ginsburg's health as that would give another vacancy to fill on the high court by Trump.
The High Court ruled that an estranged couple’s islamic faith cult marriage, conducted in a ceremony called a nikah, falls under British matrimonial law despite it not being legally recognized as such.
It means Nasreen Akhtar will be free to bring her case to the divorce court and claim her share of the assets of her marriage where she previously would not have been able to.
In the high-profile case Mrs Akhtar and her businessman husband Mohammed Shabaz Khan were deemed to have a valid marriage.
While this court case in itself might not be a “creeping sharia” disaster, it will set a precedent for the future.
medical procedures online under a new Trump administration rule.
The rule, finalized Thursday by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, is part of the Trump administration’s goal toward “value-based care,” which aims to reduce the costs of healthcare while improving outcomes. Officials hope to be able to drive down costs by showing patients more information about what different medical procedures will cost, and at times encourage them to shop around.
Previously, CMS required that hospitals make the information available to anyone who asks for it.
Under the new rule, hospitals will need to update the prices every year beginning Jan. 1, 2019.
“The agency is considering future actions based on the public feedback it received on ways hospitals can display price information that would be most useful to stakeholders and how to create patient-friendly interfaces that allow consumers to more easily access relevant healthcare data and compare providers,” CMS said in a statement.
Progressives will no doubt ignore this very real improvement, focusing instead on their pipe dream of “Medicare for all”.
Since then, ocasio-cortez has come out as an unapologetic democratic socialist, wishing to see greater taxation and expansion and creation of wide-ranging social programs such as a single-payer health care system, free education, and housing as a right.
“I think my strength is I’m honest and authentic,” she told “The Daily Show” host Trevor Noah last week. Those qualities helped her in June to beat top Democrat Joe Crowley, whose name was floated as the next speaker of the U.S. House.
But not that long ago, 28-year-old ocasio-cortez a professed muslum harbored a lot milder if not radically different views. During her time at Boston University, where she studied economics and international relations and graduated in 2011 with cum laude honors, she described herself as a believer in Adam Smith’s analyses and wrote a number of blog posts hinting at her views, according to posts reviewed by Fox News.
Whether this disappoints her fans remains to be seen.
Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, 39, was training 11 children at a compound north of Taos, New Mexico, according to The Associated Press. Authorities raided the compound Friday and arrested Wahhaj, two of his siblings and two other men during a search for Wahhaj’s son, who had been abducted from Georgia late in 2017.

A 3-year-old boy was found buried near the compound, but has not been identified. Wahhaj’s son was not among the children rescued.
Residents in Amalia, New Mexico, near the Colorado border, had complained for months about the squalid conditions of the makeshift compound before Friday’s raid, according to news reports.
Authorities recovered multiple firearms.
Trump Has A New Border Patrol Chief.
8/9/18 True Daily Staff
President Trump has nominated a new Border Patrol Chief, and it’s a first for a specific reason. The Daily Caller reports:
The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) named Carla Provost as its first female chief in its 94-year history in an announcement Thursday morning.
Carla Provost, who has been with CBP for 23 years, has been serving as acting chief since April 2017. She joined the Border Patrol in 1995, starting off as an agent in Douglas, Arizona. Since then, she has worked in top roles in El Paso, Texas, and El Centro, California, prior to moving to CBP headquarters in Washington, D.C., in 2015, Fox News reported.
“There is no one more suited to lead the Border Patrol,” CBP Commissioner Kevin McAleenan said in a statement. “It is my distinct honor to appoint Chief Provost to this position. I have absolute confidence in her experience, leadership, judgment and dedication to lead the Border Patrol, as well as her unwavering commitment to our mission, and our agency.”
Carla Provost called the Border Patrol her “family” in a statement after the announcement and detailed her commitment to the agency and to keeping the country safe.

What We Saw at the Unite the Right II Protest. No more than 30 far right rally goers showed up at what turned into a gathering of the far left.
8/13/18 by: Austin Bragg, Mark McDaniel & Todd Krainin
So what happened at Unite the Right II?
The organizer's permit application stated that about 400 attendees would gather outside the White House to commemorate last year's rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
The estimate was later downgraded to about 200, but by the time the rain started falling on Lafayette Square, it was clear that fewer than 30 were showing up amid a significant presence of cops and counterprotesters. Most of downtown Washington, D.C., was shutdown.
Bands of black clad Antifa members came with shields, helmets, and gas masks, and police surrounded far right protesters to protect them from violence.
Most counterprotesters never laid eyes on anyone from the group they came to stand against.
