Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Absent For Oral Arguments – Media Claim, Without Evidence, Justice is of Sound Mind and Body…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on January 7, 2019 by 

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is absent from the Supreme Court bench for oral arguments today.  After surgery for cancer removal last year, the media claim -without evidence- that Justice Ginsburg is sufficient of mind and body to review transcripts from testimony and preside over cases.

(Barely Coherent in September 2018)

Given how far the far-left wing of the political apparatus was willing to go in their constructed attack against a prior Supreme Court nominee (Kavanaugh); in collaboration with the intelligence apparatus of the U.S. DOJ; one has to wonder if the same ideological forces are not hiding the actual inability of Ginsburg to act as a Supreme Court justice.

In years passed this line of inquiry might have seemed ‘conspiratorial’ or ‘out-there’; however, in the past two years we have been exposed to just how far elements within the political apparatus are willing to go in order to attain their ideological objectives.  See: FBI/DOJ ‘spygate‘ (surveillance of political opposition by the U.S. intelligence apparatus); and the FBI/DOJ allied narrative around ‘rape gang’ attacks against Brett Kavanaugh.

If I were a plaintiff in any case now in front of the Supreme Court, my first line of inquiry would be a request for any absent member to prove they were of sound judgement etc.

WASHINGTON DC – Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will not be on the bench to hear oral arguments Monday, missing arguments in person for the first time in more than 25 years she has served on the court.

Ginsburg underwent surgery to remove two malignant nodules from her left lung that were detected after she had a fall that fractured three ribs late last year, the court announced in December. The 85-year-old justice returned to work promptly after the fall, publicly saying a few weeks later that her ribs were nearly fully recovered and that her health was fine. (read more)

If these unsupported claims of “fine health” by media are true, Justice Ginsburg would have no issues with a physical presence.  However, factually, there is a reason why Justice Ginsburg is not present.  Questioning the details behind unsupported claims is notconspiracy theory.

It is a fact the current process structure as outlined by her spokespeople, does not allow for the justice to question anything during oral arguments. That alone is suspect given the prior history of political manipulation on such matters.

Supreme Court spokesperson Kathleen Arberg confirmed Ginsburg would not be at the court on Monday. Ginsburg will still read transcripts of arguments scheduled for Monday, but will be working from home. (link)

Under the circumstances, requesting that a Supreme Court Justice provide reasonableand  valid assurances of their ability to do the job is not unusual.  Any other profession has a standing regulatory and compliance process; which includes a statement from a physician attesting to the ability therein; to ensure continued competence.

United in iniquity


 Claiming to work for “peace and social justice,” in the US and around the world, American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) has, nevertheless, been rightly called “the most militant and aggressive of Christian anti-Israel groups.”  They boast of their history of non-violent activism, yet work to ultimately destroy the Jewish people and their ancient homeland, Israel, by inciting others to strive for Israel’s annihilation, often through violence. 

The AFSC, a Quaker group that, together with a British Quaker organization, began in 1917 as a wartime medical corps to assist civilian victims of World War I, aiding orphans and victims of famine and disease.  Their additional humanitarian work through Europe, Japan, India and China, helping African-, Native-, Mexican-, and Asian-Americans, certainly earned them the Nobel Peace Prize.  Yet, in the 1930s and through World War II, they helped non-religious Jews and Jews married to Christians, alleging that “religious Jews” were being helped by other organizations; they did not decline to help Catholics, Protestants, Buddhists, Hindus and Muslims based on the extent of their religiosity.  Therefore, despite the dire conditions of the Holocaust survivors – their suffering, losses, homes destroyed, and eagerness for peace in their ancient homeland – the organization instead promoted the repatriation of hostile Arabs into Israel, the Arabs who were eager and ready to attack the reborn Jewish state and implement their plans of genocide.  There can be no other interpretation but organizational antisemitism.

 

CASE ONE

Today, the Friends have gathered some unexpected friends, some even from the Jewish community.  The controversial Rabbi Brant Rosen and other leftists have merged with the Quakers in an endeavor to devastate Israel’s economic survival. United by anti-Zionism, the two religiously-identified communities joined the Palestinians in a stealth, or civilizational, operation of jihad, a subtle war strategy to seriously harm Israel’s economy.

For the cause of Arab settlement in the land, the AFSC adopted Hamas’s revised history, falsely claiming that these Arabs are indigenous “Palestinians,” whose return is justified. This is beyond absurd.   Historically, the Romans named the land mass Syria Palaestina to insult the Jewish inhabitants (~135 – 390 AD); it was never ruled by “Palestinians.”  Prof. Philip Hitti, leading Arab-American historian, firmly testified in 1946, “There is no such thing as ‘Palestine’ in history; absolutely not.”  Archaeological findings repeatedly unearth artifacts to verify centuries of Jewish history.

By 1921, the British Government, under the Palestine Mandate, tore away nearly four-fifths of the geographical territory (~35,000 sq. mi.) to create the new Transjordan, leaving a mere 20 percent for Jewish settlement in their ancestral, Biblical birthplace, yet the Arabs objected.  In 1948, having again rejected a larger slice of land for peace, the Arabs invaded and lost its aggressive war to the newly established State of Israel. The 1967 Six-Day War was yet another Israeli victory against the Arabs’ genocidal attacks, yet Israel offered to return 90% of the territories won in the interest of peace.  Israel has since returned all of Sinai to Egypt and, despite immense historical and Biblical Jewish ties, relinquished Gaza.  There is still no peace.

The land that had never been autonomous became Israel’s by virtue of winning defensive wars. Therefore, “occupied” is a misnomer created to evoke Arab victimhood in the court of public opinion.  “Settlements” is another falsity because Israel’s constructions are legal under the League of Nations Mandate for Palestine, yet the AFSC has deliberately taken the opposing position.  UN Security Council Resolution 242 gave Israel the right to administer the territories gained in her self-protective war until peace is achieved, but the Arabs remain hostile and threatening, burning huge swaths of land and attacking Israeli citizens as they do in much of Europe, which is also under siege.

The Arabs who accepted Israel’s offer for them to remain in Israel with full citizenship in 1948 are thriving, along with their progeny, under conditions that greatly surpass life in Arab lands, but the Arabs who fled Israel for Gaza, following their armies’ instructions, were abandoned and have become an inhumane bargaining chip in the hoped-for conquest of Israel.

While Rosen expressed indignation at Israel’s ban upon their entering the country, denying the AFSC’s increased international outreach and spread of damaging propaganda about Israel, many Jews in the Diaspora wonder why Israel’s Strategic Affairs Ministry did not legislate the entry ban sooner.

American Friends Service Committee is but one of Israel’s American-based adversaries that have been banned from entry.  Others include American Muslims for Palestine, Code Pink, Jewish Voice for Peace, National Students for Justice in Palestine, and US Campaign for Palestinian Rights who also seek to obliterate America’s solid ally, Israel, which does much to benefit America, including providing valuable intel, technological and medical innovation, and much more.

 

CASE TWO

Another destructive group, Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD), headquartered in the US, with branches in the UK and Norway, opposes every method of reprisal employed by Israel against her warring neighbors, which translates to a prohibition on all means of self-defense.  The Committee continually advances the false narratives of “occupation” and “Palestinian territories,” and one of its founders, Jeff Halper, another blighted Jewish surname, seeks to merge a Palestinian entity with Israel, virtually ensuring Israel’s obliteration.

The ICAHD uses non-violent propaganda, books, films, and tours conducted to the territories to provide scenes of supposed Palestinian victimization (although Hamas rules Gaza).  However, as is the practice in any sovereign nation, it is Israeli law to demolish homes that do not conform to the legal principles of zoning and building laws on land that may be dedicated to parks and preserves, or that lacks the necessary infrastructure to support housing for anyone, including nomadic Bedouins with their camel livestock.  Furthermore, consider that the UN purposely and illegally builds on land with historical significance to Israel.

It is also Israeli law to bulldoze the homes of families that spawn the jihadi terrorists who murder Jewish citizens, disciplinary demolition that is a proven deterrent.  Israel is now considering a law for the expulsion of the killers’ families.  Not only has Halper engaged in protesting the homes’ destruction, but he has had them rebuilt, defying the law and reason.  In 2005, he and ICAHD began a campaign to boycott Israel as an “apartheid” state until the “occupation is over,” and supported the 2010 “Freedom Flotilla” (such as Mavi Marmara), its purpose being to break Israel’s legal defensive blockade.

As Arab leadership intentionally abjures negotiations for peace and pursues violence, the BDS movement works its psychological warfare against Israel with the buzz words, “occupation” and “colonialization,” both inapplicable in areas that were never self-governed by any but Israel.  BDS is meant to sculpt a Palestinian tie to the land and economically, socially, religiously, and intellectually malign Israel as the oppressor, so that the world will compliantly accept Israel’s extinction. (Note: this is one of many methods of making other countries Islam-compliant.)

For seventy years, in defiance of international law, the so-called “Friends” have been working to remove Jewish sovereignty from the land.  Its nonviolence is nevertheless an aspect of jihad, closing individual businesses (some employing Arabs) and obstructing international trade, costing Israel hundreds of millions of dollars and human treasure to counter the delegitimization.  The BDS movement aspires for Israel to be impoverished and weakened enough for the Palestinians to complete their conquest by the sword.

Another facet is to decry Israel’s legal wall construction that has saved thousands of innocent Jewish lives from the Palestinians’ invasive, brutal attacks.  (The same mentality condemns a wall at America’s southern border.)  The Quakers and other anti-Zionists also seek voting and other rights for “Palestinians” who originated from neighboring Arab countries and are not Israeli citizens, and a “right of return” for those who refused Israeli citizenship but who constitute a flood of warriors ready for invasion and conquest.

Other like-minded groups banned from Israel are: France-Palestine Solidarity Association, BDS France; BDS Italy, The European Coordination of Committees and Associations for Palestine, Friends of Al-Aqsa, Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign, the Palestine Committee of Norway, Palestine Solidarity Association of Sweden, Palestine Solidarity Campaign, War on Want, BDS Kampagne, BDS Chile, BDS South Africa, and BDS National Committee.  The support of Islam, its hatred of the kafir (non-Muslim), is a betrayal to our own survival, as well, because their agenda embraces far more than Israel.

We recognize and condemn the hypocrisy of these Quakers and their collaborators who conspire for the acquisition of Israel,  that is a mere one-thousandth the size of the Muslim land mass, and the genocide of the Jewish people, while hiding behind the virtuous guise of “non-violence.”  Make no mistake: their success in Israel would free them to increase their efforts in Europe and the Americas.  Perhaps, within this organization, there may still be some with the conscience to condemn the hypocrites, rebel against the leadership, call for justice, and reverse the odious boycott?

Beware: Israel’s world-renowned resolve is for the advancement of civilization; Islam’s resolve is for world domination.

Sunday Talks: Senator Marcus Junius Brutus Discusses Opposition Intransigence for Border Security….


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on January 6, 2019 by 

Appearing on Face the Nation, Republican Senator Lindsey ‘Marcus Junius Brutus‘ Graham (U-DC) discusses his bold support for President Trump and the need for a physical border barrier.

Senator Brutus, a beneficiary of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee [think lobbying – example here], connects his support for President Trump’s border position with his concerns about a withdrawal of a U.S. military presence in Syria. Quote: …”the president is slowing down and he is reevaluating his policies”…

.

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.” ~ Cicero

Sunday Talks: Steny Hoyer Outlines Legislative Resistance Approach Using UniParty Ally Mitch McConnell…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on January 6, 2019 by 

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer appears on Meet The Press to outline how the House will use political theater, with their ally Mitch McConnell, to weaken the border security position of President Donald Trump.

When you accept that Senate Leader McConnell is actually on their team, things begin to make more sense. Democrats are providing cover for their UniParty ally, Mitch, by framing the optic of McConnell allied with President Trump.  The entire process is a predictable and well planned insider game of optics and political theater.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Proposed to Raise Individual Tax Rates to 70%


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics

Re-Posted Jan 7, 2019 by Martin Armstrong

I have warned that all the talk behind the curtain I was hearing when the Democrats won the House was that as soon as they go in, they would be looking at raising taxes to where they use to be back before Reagan. Well it did not take long. The new Congresswoman from New York with ZERO experience in economics, is now arguing to raise taxes on the “rich” Americans to 70% to her idea of a“Green New Deal.” She has also come out and called Trump a racist totally failing to understand that there are only four races, black, red, white, and yellow. Mexican is not a race it is an ethic group just as Americans are not some mythical single race. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez came out on Friday and said:

“You look at our tax rates back in the 60s, and when you have a progressive tax rate system, your tax rate, let’s say, from $0 to $75,000 may be 10% or 15%, etc. But once you get to the tippy tops, on your 10-millionth dollar, sometimes you see tax rates as high as 60% or 70%.” 

Of course, the tax cuts in the 1960s were introduced by John F. Kennedy – a democrat. It was those high tax rates that drove American manufacture offshore to begin with. Americans are taxed on worldwide income. When I testified before the House Ways & Means Committee, the question they ask me why did no American firms get any contracts to build the Yellow River Dam in China? I explain that Germans did not pay worldwide income tax so when they big on such a project, they were already 40% less. Any German personnel that went there were also tax free. Ocasio-Cortez  is clueless about taxes and economics.

I have to state plainly. I am very much aware of the trend in Washington. It looks like our taxes are going to rise significantly!!!! As interest expenditures soar consuming a greater and great proportion of total spending, both parties will resort to rising taxes. I see Trump as the last hope in holding off that trend for the one thing he does understand in debt servicing. But I have also warned that our models show Trump is a reaction within a bear market trend in government. So I am not hopeful of the future to say the least.

Personally, this means at some point I will have to make a decision. I shut down operations entirely and just walk the beach, or I will have to resign my citizenship and leave for Asia. I have not made that decision. I just have to realize I personally need Plan B and Plan C. Part of the Crash & Burn requires someone like Ocasio-Cortez to complete devastate Western Economies. Once she raises that taxes in the USA to such levels, the rich will flee as took place in France and economic growth will collapse causing unemployment to rise and presto = civil unrest.

The greatest flaw in American politics is that the tax rate is not stable. It reflects the brainwave of someone suffering from Schizophrenia. Nobody would sign a lease to an apartment where it allowed the landlord to rise the rent anytime if he determines he needs money. This is why companies left in the first place. Not because they paid a worker $5 instead of $10 an hour. It was to get guaranteed deals with respect to fixed taxation rates.

Cheney – Rice – Rumsfeld – Kristol


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics

Re-Posted Jan 7, 2019 by Martin Armstrong

There have been assertions that the formidable group of Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Rice were responsible for all the deaths in the Iraq Conflict. A number of people have responded to the piece I wrote about the movie VICE.  This threesome called themselves “the Vulcans”, after the Roman god of fire. Cheney served as the White House Chief of Staff, from 1975 to 1977. In 1978, Cheney was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives representing Wyoming and reelected five times serving until 1989, when he was the House minority whip in 1989. Cheney was selected to be the Secretary of Defense during the Presidency of George H. W. Bush, Sr, holding the position for the majority of Bush’s term from 1989 to 1993. Remember these years!

What I know from sources was that there was an intelligence report dated September 21st, 2001, that stated bluntly that there was NO evidence linking Saddam Hussein to the 9/11 attacks. Later, in the 2004 9/11 Commission report, they too concluded that there was NO “collaborative relationship” between Iraq and al-Qaeda. Cheney effectively authorized the Iraq Invasion which began on the 20th of March in 2003. Cheney allegedly used the national security excuse to keep Bush sequestered after 9/11 so Cheney could run the government unobstructed.

In 1976, Bill Kristol worked for Democrat Daniel Patrick Moynihan’s United States Senate campaign. Later, in 1988, Kristol was the campaign manager for black Republican Alan Keyes’s unsuccessful Maryland Senatorial campaign against Paul Sarbanes. So Kristol was on both sides of the aisle. He then taught political philosophy and University of Pennsylvania and Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. It was 1985 when Kristol first went to work in the White House serving as Chief of Staff to Secretary of Education William Bennett during the Reagan administration. Then Kristol became the Chief of Staff to Vice President Dan Quayle (1989-1993) in the George H. W. Bush administration.  This is when Kristol and Cheney were working together.

Kristol wrote the War Over Iraq: Saddam’s Tyranny And America’s Mission with his co-author Lawrence F. Kaplan, which was published on February 1st, 2003, one month and change BEFOREthe invasion. Note the timing. This was written to support Cheney. It takes time to publish this book.

Kristol’s book states that the rationale behind the preemptive strategy against Saddam Hussein is simply that he is a dictator who threatens both his own people and the world. That is sufficient to justify the United States invading another country before he does further harm. Kristol offered no evidence to support his case and he simply stated that “we do know that Saddam is a terrorist.”Kristol went as far as to criticize both the first Bush administration and the Clinton administration for allowing the Iraq threat to grow.

Now, based upon INSIDE White House sources, when someone first joined the staff in the White House under the new Bush Jr. Administration in 2001, at the very first meeting the focus was not on the prospects of a recession into 2002, but on invading Iraq from day one!!!!!!

The real issue behind the curtain was that Kristol and Kaplan were articulating a false narrative to justify a political experiment no different than the EU experiment. The real goal was to install democracy in the various countries of the Middle East to eliminate war with Israel. That is an absurd idea that ignores culture entirely. The EU experiment was the same theory which all emerged during the early 1983-1985 period. Federalize Europe and that will eliminate war, which also ignored cultural differences. You can listen to this very same justification stated by former President of France making it clear that the Euro project is to eliminate war.

This audacity of manipulating nations under the pretense to prevent future wars is really deranged. Just for the record, yes I know Bill Kristol and he even spoke at one of our WEC events in 1996. I disagree with the neocons and I disagree with intervening into nations to create democracies. Some cultures have never had a democracy and neither do we. We are a Republic using the pretense of Democracy for if we were a true Democracy there would never have been a war to invade Iraq.

Trump paid $130K to Daniels – Clinton paid $350k to Jones


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics

Re-Posted Jan 6, 2019 by Martin Armstrong

Paula Corbin Jones was the former Arkansas state employee who sued U.S. President Bill Clinton for sexual harassment. He paid her $350,000 to keep quiet and Trump paid his own money $130,000 to Stormy Daniels – the porn star. And the Democrats want to impeach Trump for that when Clinton has a history of hitting on the girls that work in government with him.

Pocahontas to Run for President


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics

Re-Posted Jan 6, 2019 by Martin Armstrong

The stage has been set and Elizabeth Warren, aka Pocahontas, is to Run for President. What is going to be really interesting besides her becoming more vocal now for the next two years, will be the revelation of how corrupt she really is. She has bashed the banks and is the closest thing to a full-fledged Marxist in the Democratic Party so will the like of Goldman Sachs fill her purse with money to defeat Trump?

We all know about the claim Warren made to get into Harvard Law School back in the 90s claiming she was a Native American. She claimed that she was pointing to “family stories” passed down to her through generations as evidence. Harvard had singled her out claiming she was a leading Native American student. Warren later acknowledged that she had listed herself as a minority in an Association of American Law Schools directory. Warren maintains she never furthered her career by using her heritage to gain advantage.

Then analysis from Carlos Bustamante, a professor of genetics at Stanford and an adviser to Ancestry, said: “While the vast majority of the individual’s ancestry is European,” he concluded of Warren, “the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor in the individual’s pedigree, likely in the range of 6-10 generations ago.”
So if there was some involvement 6 to 10 generations prior, it is hard to see why someone would have the audacity to even claim she was Native American. In the process, her release of a DNA test that suggesting such a distant a lineage to a Native American ancestor sparked outrage among real Native Americans who felt she was using such a weak cultural and social ties for political gain.
It just seems disingenuous to claim someone who is a blue-eyed blond is Native American with such a distant connection. Sure, in my distant past, on my father’s mother side was married to a German in the late 1600s in New Amsterdam before it became New York City. I probably have as much German in me or more than Warren has Native American going that far back.

Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot? Arkansas Sheriff Deputy Shoots Family Chihuahua…


Re-Posted from The Conservative Tree House on January 5, 2019 by 

This is severely disturbing.  Faulkner County, Arkansas, Sheriff Tim Ryals is now facing massive backlash thanks to a camera phone and social media.

A Faulkner sheriff deputy named Keenan Wallace was caught on camera shooting a small dog while investigating a neighborhood call reporting an aggressive dog.  Initially the County Sheriff was slow to respond to the outcry; then the video went viral on social media. [Warning, this is disturbing]:

.

Thankfully the dog named “Reese’s” survived being shot.

ARKANSAS – The Faulkner County Sheriff has fired the deputy who was caught on camera shooting a small dog.  Sheriff Tim Ryals said in the statement he felt deputy Keenan Wallace had numerous opportunities to deescalate the incident.

Sheriff Ryals added it appears no state law was violated. The investigation will be turned over to the prosecuting attorney’s office for further review. (media link)

I can’t even fathom….
