FBI raid conducted at Dearborn home

Holly Fournier , The Detroit News
A federal investigation involving national security was conducted late Thursday at a home in Dearborn, according to officials.
“FBI personnel are on scene conducting a law enforcement operation,” Tim Wiley, media coordinator of the bureau’s Detroit field office, said Thursday. A WXYZ-TV video showed agents removing boxes Thursday night.
On Friday, FBI officials said the agency is not releasing any new information or updates on the matter.
The investigation was conducted on Jonathon Street, Wiley said. Neighbors identified a home on the 7000 block of the street near Warren Avenue.
“There’s no threat to public safety in the area, so folks don’t need to be concerned about any dangerous situation,” he said.
No further information was available about the target of the investigation. More information was expected to be released Friday.
One person said he was visiting a friend to break the Ramadan fast and found the road blocked. “No one would say anything,” he said when he asked neighbors about the police activity. “It could be God knows what.”
He said he saw plain-clothes officers and more in uniform outside the home.
Officers appeared to have left the scene about 11:45 p.m. Thursday.

The above is from  the reputable Detroit News. The party at the center of this is highly connected. So thats crazy. Type in Huma Aberdeen FBI raid into google, and you will find a series of articles on the june 1st raid on Huma bedins Dearborn MI home. None of them will say her name. She's a person of power, and if hasn't been vetted properly a threat to the entire country if this is true. Attached below is an example of exactly that.
VANITY: Does an FBI raid in Dearborn involve Huma Abedin's family?
Posted on 6/4/2017, 1:14:32 AM by TigerClaws
Image result for Huma Abedin And her mother

On June 1, 2017 a raid took place on the 7200 Block of Jonathon Street in Dearborn, Michigan which is owned by a “shell company,” turns out it’s actually owned by Huma Abedin’s brother and sister. This shell company is the Journal of Muslim Affairs.

Several FBI and DOJ officers left Washington enroute to Dearborn……convoys of cars descended on the home located at 7246 Jonathon Street, assisted by other law enforcement officers from neighboring locals.

During the Clinton campaign last summer, if you recall, we didn’t see Huma Abedin for awhile, she had apparently made a trip to Dearborn, Michigan. A few months before she left to visit her brother, Hassan Abedin’s home in Dearborn, she was interviewed by the FBI about Hillary Clinton’s lost emails. Upon Abedin’s testimony to the FBI, it is reported that a laptop containing an archived copy, along with a thumb drive, were lost in the mail.

Huma is the one receiving many, many top secret reports directly from Hillary so she could print them at home as Hillary couldn't be bothered to read a computer screen.

What's the connection to her family and terror?

 

Fighting Islamism Will Require Destroying These 3 Myths

Photo by Tolga Akmen/Anadolu Agency/Getty ImagesBY: BEN SHAPIRO
The threat of Islamist terrorism is absolutely real. The attacks in London weren’t unpredictable or undefined. They were carried out by a cell of terrorists who believed that global shariah law ought to be implemented, that the Dar al-Harb(territory of war) must be turned into the Dar al-Islam by forceful means.
In order to fight the threat of Islamism, three myths must immediately die. And we in the West must do all we can to put them to death.
Myth #1: Only A Negligible Minority Of Muslims Are Islamists. It’s simply not true that the vast, vast majority of Muslims don’t believe in the goals of Islamism, even if they’re unwilling to participate themselves in the jihad. Bernard Lewis explains, “significant numbers of Muslims are ready to approve, and a few of them to apply, this interpretation of this religion.”
As Muslim moderate Zuhdi Jasser puts it:
@BradThor @DrZuhdiJasser To speak of "Islamism" as a novel "perversion" of Islam, or a thing apart from Islam, is as misleading as it is false.
@Ken_Younos @BradThor It's a political movement of 30-40% of Muslims globally; and 80-90% of "establishment" leadership due to "Petro-Islam" of Saudis/Qataris

That’s a low-end estimate. Here’s a video I cut long ago looking at the views of Muslims by public polling in populous Muslim countries:
Myth #2: Not Everyone Who Is “Non-Violent” Is Non-Islamist. President Trump has spoken out about the nature of Islamism – but he made the mistake of doing so in Saudi Arabia, ignoring the Saudi support for Wahhabism all over the planet. In doing so, he lumped Islamists in with moderates, a crucial mistake. American groups like the Council on American-Islamic Relations and the Islamic Society of North America also reflect an Islamist worldview; Dr. Jalal Zuberi, director of the Center for Islamic Pluralism, states, “they support Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.” Yet these organizations are routinely utilized as points of contact for governments on the local, state, and federal level. The seed-bed for terrorism is a far larger community of people who agree with terrorists’ views and tut-tut their means.
Myth #3: The West Has No Part In Pushing Islamic Reform. The notion here seems to be that only the Islamic world can produce reform inside Islam. That’s largely true. But the federal government and Western governments around the world have an obligation to help identify reformers and moderates and provide them support while excising everyone else. This doesn’t mean we can’t engage in realpolitik. But it does mean we can’t blather about the threat of Islamism while standing in the middle of Riyadh, next to one of the greatest sponsors of Islamism on the planet. We took an active role in promoting democracy in Western Europe rather than communism in the aftermath of World War II; we should be playing a similar role in the Muslim world now. This is why it was so egregious for President Obama to simply declare an “Arab Spring” and do nothing to support actual moderate forces.
Finally, we must fight the perception that we can’t kill enough terrorists to make a difference. We certainly can, and we must. We must also take measures designed to protect ourselves at home, including Trump’s “extreme vetting.” But the true battle — the one that will last decades — is about what happens inside Islam itself. We must get active in that battle.

Kellyanne Conway's husband swipes at Trump on Twitter


Counselor to the president sounds off on 'Fox & Friends'

The husband of White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway – and a former top prospect to lead a Justice Department division – on Monday criticized President Trump for bashing the DOJ’s “politically correct” revision of his original travel ban executive order.

“These tweets may make some ppl feel better, but they certainly won't help OSG get 5 votes in SCOTUS, which is what actually matters. Sad,” tweeted George Conway, a partner at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz.

11:11 AM - 5 Jun 2017

The remark was posted above a retweet from Trump’s Monday morning Twitter tear, in which he wrote: “The Justice Dept. should have stayed with the original Travel Ban, not the watered down, politically correct version they submitted to S.C.”

Conway also tweeted a link to a Washington Post analysis speculating that the president’s tweets could hurt the administration’s defense of the travel ban at the Supreme Court.

“Very good analysis,” he wrote.

The commentary came as Conway’s wife Kellyanne was on air Monday morning defending the president’s agenda.

In a string of subsequent tweets, Mr. Conway made clear he continues to “VERY, VERY STRONGLY support” Trump, his policies, the executive order, “and of course, my wonderful wife.”

But he said, “Every sensible lawyer in WHCO and every political ... appointee at DOJ wd agree with me (as some have already told me). The pt cannot be stressed enough that tweets on legal matters .. seriously undermine Admin agenda and POTUS--and those who support him, as I do, need to reinforce that pt and not be shy about it.”

George Conway @gtconway3d

1) Just to be clear, and in response to inquiries, I still VERY, VERY STRONGLY support POTUS, his Admin, policies, the executive order …

2) ... and of course, my wonderful wife. Which is why I said what I said this morning. Every sensible lawyer in WHCO and every political …

3) ... appointee at DOJ wd agree with me (as some have already told me). The pt cannot be stressed enough that tweets on legal matters …
4) ... seriously undermine Admin agenda and POTUS--and those who support him, as I do, need to reinforce that pt and not be shy about it.

TRUMP RIPS DOJ

The American Civil Liberties Union said on Twitter that they “may incorporate” Trump’s tweets on the ban “into our Supreme Court argument.” But asked Monday whether the White House was concerned about tainting the case, Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said “not at all.”

Conway, who had been considered a frontrunner to lead the Justice Department’s Civil Division, took himself out of consideration for the job on Friday.

“I have reluctantly concluded, however, that, for me and my family, this is not the right time for me to leave the private sector and take on a new role in the federal government,” Conway said in a statement at the time. “Kellyanne and I continue to support the President and his Administration, and I look forward to doing so in whatever way I can from outside the government.”

Conway has only tweeted 93 times and the last time was in December 2015, when he retweeted a video about the New York Giants.

Trump Seeks to Privatize America’s Air Traffic Control System

“Americans can look forward to cheaper, faster..."
President Donald Trump Monday called for privatizing America’s air traffic control system.

“Today we’re proposing to take American air travel into the future, finally,” Trump said in outlining his plan for a separate corporation to oversee the technology and personnel who monitor America’s air travel system. Trump had proposed the much-discussed change during the campaign.

“Americans can look forward to cheaper, faster and safer travel,” Trump said.

Trump said the current air traffic control system was designed for a time when fewer planes were flying.

“We live in a modern age, but our air traffic control system is stuck, painfully, in the past,” Trump said.

Trump labeled the current system “ancient, broken, antiquated” and “horrible” and said the changes he is proposing would make it safer and more reliable.

Although the Federal Aviation Administration has been working to implement an overhaul of its current system, Trump said the process has taken too long and accomplished too little.

“Honestly, they didn’t know what the hell they were doing,” Trump said. “A total waste of money.”

“We’re really moving into the modern decade of technology in air traffic control. It’s a system where everyone benefits from this,” White House economic adviser Gary Cohn said in a conference call with reporters. Trump’s budget plan released earlier this year called for the changes, placing air traffic operations under an “independent, nongovernmental organization.”

Cohn said the change would reconfigure the system from a land-based radar system to a GPS-based system. He said that the change would lead to time and fuel saved for airlines and time saved for passengers.

“I am proposing new principles to Congress for air traffic control reform” that would result in the system being operated by “one great company who can piece it all together,” Trump said.

“Under this new plan the FAA will focus firmly on what it does best – safety,” Trump said.

White House officials said the entity Trump seeks to create would be run by a 13-member board with members from the airline industry, unions, general aviation, airports and other stakeholders.

Canada privatized its system in 1996. Australia, Germany, New Zealand, and Switzerland have also privatized their air traffic control systems.

Should You Be Concerned About This Missile Test?

I’m not particularly afraid of North Korea’s Kim Jong Un. Frankly, he strikes me as a blowhard and a propagandist like so many dictators before him. However, even blowhards occasionally find a way to follow through with their threats no matter how incredibly unlikely.
With that in mind, maybe it’s worth considering whether the recent test of an intermediate range ballistic missile (IRBM) is something to keep in mind while you prepare for the most likely disaster scenarios. You see, North Korea successfully tested an IRBM “which flew for 489 miles and reached an altitude of 1,312 miles.”
Daniel Jennings notes an even more scary aspect of the test:
One frightening feature of the launch was the successful test of a homing feature that would allow the warhead to survive the worst reentry situation, the country’s official news agency reported.
Such a homing feature would enable the North to aim the missile at specific targets, such as American cities or military bases.
“This is an advanced missile, if their claims are true,” Joshua Pollack of Nonproliferation Review told Reuters. He noted that the missile fired on Sunday looked similar to mockups of an ICBM the North Koreans may be building.
North Korea claims to have successfully tested five nuclear bombs and is believed to have around 10 nukes in its arsenal.
Now, while North Korea’s missile test is most likely to be a concern for our friends on the West Coast, that doesn’t mean that the rest of us shouldn’t keep this issue in mind. Remember, Cuba is only 103 miles off of the Florida coast, and if a missile is fired from a submarine 100 miles off of the West Coast of the United States, this missile could still strike targets as far inland as Phoenix, Arizona. The same scenario on the East Coast could hit targets as far inland as Knoxville, Tennessee. The midwest may be safe from IRBMs, but there are quite a few large population centers which could easily be hit with this type of weapon.
(On a side note, large population centers are likely to be a primary target for nuclear weapons, which is another reason to consider moving to a rural area.)


Who Voted in 2016?

Analysis Shows Black Turnout Down, No Hispanic Surge

A new analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies examines the demographics of those who voted in the 2016 presidential election. Newly released Census Bureau data from November 2016 show a significant decline in the black turnout rate compared to 2012, a lack of change in the Hispanic turnout rate, and no national surge in white turnout, including among those without a college degree. These same national patterns also generally hold for battleground states and in the six states that flipped from supporting Obama in 2012 to supporting Trump in 2016, with some exceptions.
View the entire analysis at:
Dr. Steven Camarota, the Center’s director of research and author of the report, stated, “Census data shows the great diversity of the American electorate. But the voter turnout among the African American, Hispanic, and immigrant populations that were predicted as a reaction to Trump’s policy positions did not materialize.”

Among the findings:

  • The share of eligible black Americans who voted (the turnout rate) declined significantly, from 67 percent to 60 percent between 2012 and 2016. The 2016 rate matches the rate from 2004. As a share of all voters, blacks declined from 13 percent to 12 percent nationally.
  • The share of eligible Hispanics who voted held almost constant at 47.6 percent in 2016, compared to 48 percent in 2012. Reflecting the long-term impact of prior immigration and above-replacement-level fertility, the total number of Hispanic voters continued its slow, steady increase — from 7 percent in 2008, to 8 percent in 2012, to 9 percent of the total electorate in 2016.
  • The share of eligible immigrants (naturalized U.S. citizens) who voted held roughly constant at 54 percent between 2012 and 2016. Like the figures for all eligible Hispanics (native and foreign-born) reported above, there is no evidence that Trump’s positions increased or decreased immigrant turnout rates.
  • In 2016, 65 percent of eligible whites voted; a slight increase from the 64 percent in 2012. This compares to 66 percent in 2008 and 67 percent in 2004.
  • Due to prior immigration policies and relatively low fertility, whites are a declining share of the national electorate. However their share declined by just 0.4 percentage points between 2012 and 2016. This compares to a 2.5 percentage-point decline in their share of the total vote between 2008 and 2012 and a 2.9 percentage-point decline between 2004 and 2008.
  • The slight increase in the share of eligible whites who voted and the large decline in black turnout partly explain why the white share of the national electorate did not decline as it had in prior elections, even though the Hispanic share continued its slow, steady increase in 2016.
  • In the six states that “flipped” from supporting Obama in 2012 to supporting Trump in 2016 (Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Michigan, and Wisconsin), the pattern of black decline and white stability generally holds; however in Florida, the largest of these states, the Hispanic turnout rate declined.
  • In Ohio, the turnout rate among eligible whites increased 2.5 percentage points from 2012 to 2016. As a share of all voters, whites in the state may have actually increased slightly.
  • The turnout rate of blacks declined somewhat more dramatically in Ohio than in the nation as a whole — from 73 percent in 2012 to just 65 percent in 2016. As a result, their share of the Ohio electorate also may have fallen slightly.
  • In contrast to the country as a whole, in Florida Hispanic turnout fell from 62 percent in 2012 to 54 percent in 2016.
  • In contrast to blacks and Hispanics in Florida, white turnout in the state rose slightly, from 62 percent in 2012 to 64 percent in 2016, and their share of the total electorate did not decline.
  • In Iowa, the white turnout rate declined significantly from 71 percent to 65 percent between 2012 and 2016. As a share of the electorate in the state, whites held constant because non-white turnout was also down.
  • Although not a battleground state, the relative closeness of the 2016 Texas presidential race compared to prior races has prompted some to wonder if changing demographics was the cause. However, black and Hispanic turnout followed the same trends in the state as they did nationally; and whites may have increased their share of the total electorate slightly in 2016 compared to 2012.


First Deep State Arrest: Government Contractor Busted Leaking NSA Docs to ‘The Intercept’
16
Reality Leigh Winner, a 25-year-old contractor with Pluribus International Corporation, was charged in federal court Monday for allegedly leaking a National Security Agency (NSA) report on Russian Election hacking to left-wing news site The Intercept.
In the criminal complaint handed down in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Georgia, Winner is charged with “Gathering, transmitting or losing defense information” in relation to an alleged scheme to leak a May NSA report to the media.
According to the supporting affidavit, Winner printed the report, for which she had no “need to know,” smuggled it from an unnamed U.S. intelligence agency facility in Georgia, and later transmitted it to an unnamed news outlet.
The matter was serious enough that the nation’s number two law enforcement official, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, felt it necessary to weigh in. In the press release announcing Winner’s charging, Rosenstein wrote:
Exceptional law enforcement efforts allowed us quickly to identify and arrest the defendant … Releasing classified material without authorization threatens our nation’s security and undermines public faith in government. People who are trusted with classified information and pledge to protect it must be held accountable when they violate that obligation.
She was caught only when that news outlet asked the intelligence agency to comment on the document last Tuesday. Upon realizing the document was, in fact, classified material, the agency quickly enlisted the FBI for an internal investigation that pointed to Reality Winner as the source of the leaks.
While the affidavit makes no mention of which news outlet Reality Winner sent the stolen material to, NBC News Cyber Security Reporter Tom Winter later tweeted that a senior federal official confirmed it was left-leaning investigative news site The Intercept.
NBC News: Senior federal official says that Reality Leigh Winner, age 25, has been arrested & charged with leaking document to The Intercept

As news of Winner’s arraignment broke, the lead story on The Intercept was, in fact, an in-depth piece based on a purported NSA document with the same date, May 5, given in the affidavit supporting Winner’s charging.
This is not only recent controversy involving The Intercept, which was founded specifically to dig into the American intelligence apparatus. Intercept writer Juan Thompson was fired last year for fabricating stories about the racially-charged tragedy at South Carolina’s Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, apparently to play up stereotypes of racist white southerners and smear Donald Trump supporters. This March, Thompson was the first person arrested for calling in threats to Jewish community centers as part of a nationwide intimidation campaign that was also widely blamed by the media on Trump supporters.
Reality Winner, who, according to a Justice Department press release, was arrested Saturday, held a “top secret” clearance in relation with her work for Pluribus, a defense and intelligence contractor. According to the affidavit, when questioned, she admitted to printing the document and sending it to the media from her home in Augusta, Georgia.
The Daily Mail later trawled the idiosyncratically named millennial accused’s social media, revealing images of a smiling young woman with an impressive travelogue and range-time with a neon-pink-colored AR-15-style rifle.
Each count of 18 U.S.C. §793, the crime with which Ms. Winner is charged, carries a penalty of up to ten years in federal prison.


Surprise: The United States is the Leading Reducer of Carbon Emissions



Oh, that terrible Trump. He withdrew us from the Paris climate accords, and now icebergs untethered from Antartica will soon float up the Mississippi River and destroy St. Louis.
The Europeans are contemptuous of our decision not to join their One-World Government and submit our economic future to the incomparable IQs of the central planners in Brussels. And yet, who is doing the most, right here, right now, to reduce carbon emissions and whatever effect they have on global warming?
The United States of America. You know, the bad guys.
From a June 2016 article in Forbes:
The U.S. also leads the world in reducing carbon emissions for the most recent 5- and 10-year periods. Over the past 5 years U.S. carbon dioxide emissions have fallen by 270 million tons. In 2nd place for that period was the UK, with a 93 million ton decline. Over the most recent 5-year period, China led the world with a 1.1 billion ton increase. India was in 2nd place with a 540 million ton increase.
U.S. emissions have fallen at about the rate of those of the entire European Union, even as our economic growth — and hunger for carbon molecules — has far outpaced theirs. And yet you would never know that given the opprobrium heaped on us from our far-more-enlightened — and over-regulated — friends on The Continent.
Why are we doing so well? Let me introduce another commonly known dirty word, to go alongside “America.” That is, “fracking.”
As Forbes notes, the biggest contributor to our carbon emissions decline is not Barack Obama running around spinning windmills. It’s the growing production of natural gas.
The Washington Examiner explains where that’s coming from:
As the Wall Street Journal reports, fracking-based energy firms in Texas’ Permian Basin are finding a useful side-benefit to their innovation: gas comes up alongside the oil! The consequence: a growing glut of cheap natural gas. This gas is the golden ticket. It offers American businesses and families access to cheap energy, and an alternative to polluting energy sources . . . it is cheaper and far more emissions-efficient than coal, and it doesn’t require massive public expenditures. In the coming years, more consumers and utilities will choose gas over coal. And indirectly, total carbon emissions will fall. Along with new technologies such as battery-based vehicles, this gas is the path to a lower carbon emissions future.
Could it be that the future of stemming the earth’s warming does not come from bankrupting Western economies, but from private sector spending on basic energy research and innovations that get more out of fossil fuels, with cleaner and more efficient results?
Sure, we should continue research on renewables. But these technologies are mostly not ready to be deployed. Let’s allow Bill Gates to invest all he wants in cars that plug into wall sockets, and if you want to risk freezing beneath your solar panels while the sun don’t shine, that’s your business.
Meantime, American entrepreneurs will continue to figure out surprising new ways to create efficiencies and new technologies that reduce the cost of energy and the emissions that result.

G’day…Ciao…….
