Muslim Extremism
StandardDear Johanna —
We feel compelled to share with you, an alarming story that the mainstream media won’t, regarding a prominent candidate for DNC Chairman, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN).
If elected to this powerful position, Rep. Ellison would be the first Muslim ever to serve as DNC Chairman.
Unfortunately, this would not be the only “glass ceiling” the Congressman’s appointment would shatter.
Rep. Ellison would also be the first 9/11 truther to be given the reigns to the DNC. In other words, he implied that 9/11 was an inside job, committed by the United States Government, most notably President George W. Bush.
That’s right, a 2007 video has surfaced in which Rep. Ellison back in 2007, compares the events of 9/11 to the Reichstag fire that helped bring Adolf Hitler to power in Nazi Germany. This stunt he referenced was a ruse, designed to coalesce the will of the people around Hitler.
As the Washington Free Beacon notes, Ellison proclaimed:
“Remember 9/11. Right? You had never had all this discrimination against religious minorities but for 9/11,” Ellison said. “You had it, but you didn’t have it to the degree that we have it now. 9/11 is this juggernaut event in American history, and it allows—it’s almost like, you know, the Reichstag fire kind of reminds me of that. Does anybody know what I’m talking about?”
“But who benefited from 9/11?” an audience member asked.
“Well, I mean, you know, you and I both know,” Ellison said.
“Yeah, Bush,” the audience member replied, a clear reference to then-President George W. Bush.
“But the thing is that, you know, after the Reichstag was burned, they blamed the Communists for it, and it put the leader of that country in a position where he could basically have authority to do whatever he wanted,” Ellison said.
This is a statement by a United States Congressmen, and frontrunner for DNC Chairman? All aboard the lunatic train if Ellison should be appointed.

In other words, Ellison is implying that George Bush was secretly behind the events of 9/11, to give himself more power, and so that ordinary Americans would start discriminating against Muslims. Someone check the air quality in Ellison’s office…quickly!
But more striking than this insane theory propagated by a potential DNC Chairman, is Ellison’s ties to radical Islamic terror networks.
Ellison is an enthusiastic supporter of CAIR, a Muslim Brotherhood front group, classified by the United Arab Emirates as a terrorist organization.
Think about that, even a country like the U.A.E that has Sharia law thinks CAIR is dangerously radical!
More to it, Ellison was a spokesman for the Nation of Islam well into his 30’s, a notoriously hateful and anti-Semitic organization.
Ellison also knowingly accepted $50,000 in campaign contributions from Islamic radicals, who openly supported Islamic terrorism and were leaders of front groups for Hamas and other Islamic terror networks.
It wouldn’t just be insane to elect Ellison as DNC Chairman, it would be dangerous.

Why you should send testimony to Senator Sessions’ Immigration Subcommittee
StandardListen to Senator Sessions speaking to his subcommittee, and be inspired!
O.K. I’ve been hearing a lot of excuses about why some of you don’t want to be bothered doing this!
Sorry folks, but saving America is going to be hard work and this is the least you can do—spend an hour writing a proper, polite letter to Senator Sessions who held a hearing last week on Obama’s final determination as President to bring in 110,000 refugees this fiscal year (the new flow began yesterday!). Go here for a report on the hearing. The security issues were front and center.
And, here is my post from Friday on sending testimony (a letter) to the Subcommittee.
I don’t want to hear about the postal service and how slow it is! I don’t want to hear that they don’t listen to us anyway! I don’t want to hear, why can’t we send postcards (make it easy for us)! Or, that the deadline is…

EMPs: A Threat We’re Not Ready For
An electromagnetic pulse from a nuclear device or solar storm would be catastrophic, yet the U.S. remains unprepared.

The federal government has long known that electromagnetic pulses, or EMPs, pose a significant threat to America’s infrastructure, particularly the electrical grid. Yet federal agencies have done little to defend against this danger, as a congressional hearing last month shows.
EMPs are bursts of energy that can be caused by a nuclear detonation or a major solar storm. They induce massive voltage spikes in electronic devices and can irreparably damage all sorts of equipment—from large power transformers to household electronics.
An EMP produced by solar activity could cause extended blackouts for 40 million Americans and cost as much as $2.6 trillion, according to a 2013 study by Lloyd’s of London. In 2014 the executive director of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security told Congress that EMPs pose “existential threats that could kill 9 of 10 Americans through starvation, disease, and societal collapse.”
A special EMP commission created by Congress offered a report in 2008 with nearly 100 concrete steps to mitigate the risk. For instance, upgrading the electric grid to be secure from the EMP threat would cost roughly $2 billion, while protecting 5,000 power-generation plants would cost only $250 million. These recommendations were meant to initiate direct action from both the departments of Homeland Security and Energy.

But in April the Government Accountability Office released an alarming account of the bureaucratic dysfunction obstructing EMP mitigation. The GAO determined that although divisions within Homeland Security have been assigned specific tasks, departmental leaders have failed to ensure that this work is carried out. The two departments have not even identified the elements of the electrical infrastructure that most need protecting. Nor have the agencies coordinated strategies to address risks associated with EMPs, including research and development of equipment designed to mitigate damage.
On May 17 at a hearing of the House Committee on Homeland Security, a GAO officialexplained that there had not been a “comprehensive, holistic effort to address” the EMP commission’s recommendations and “no designated lead for coordinating all these efforts.”
Brandon Wales of Homeland Security explained that his agency is working with the Energy Department on a study to assess the EMP risk. The study will not be completed until next summer, nearly a decade after the EMP commission published its recommendations.
My organization, Consumers’ Research, conducted its own study of EMPs out of concern for the threat they pose to the nation’s economic well-being. Though complexity contributes to the sorry state of preparedness, a major factor is bureaucratic ambiguity about who owns the problem. Worse, the recommendations of the EMP commission carry no legislative or executive mandate.
The consequences of inaction could be tremendous. In a 2012 article in Space Weather,Pete Riley of Predictive Science put the chances of a major solar storm in the next 10 years as high as 12%. Disruption of the electrical grid could have, as the GAO says, “cascading impacts on fuel distribution, transportation systems, food and water supplies, and communications and equipment for emergency services.”
The departments of Homeland Security and Energy are not protecting Americans from these threats. They are not doing their jobs.
