Ilhan Omar, a current member of the US Congress, has been a disturbing example of what happens when a hostile muslim acquires a degree of power in this country. She was generously brought here as a Somali refugee from Africa, yet Omar does everything possible to insult the nation that rescued her and her family.

She clearly hates America, shown by her comments in the magazine Vogue Arabia that living here is an “everyday assault” to her diverse identity.

Below, Omar was given the high fashion treatment in Vogue Arabia despite her political remarks.

But her behavior goes beyond mere rudeness to the United States — her apparent criminal activity is plentiful and diverse. Fox News reported on Thursday that she is being investigated by several federal agencies for various scams and assorted lawbreaking:

TRACE GALLEGHER: The case was initially assigned by the Department of Justice to an FBI agent: now Democratic Congresswoman Ilan Omar is reportedly also being looked at by Customs and Immigration Enforcement or ICE and the Inspector General for the Department of Education.

The Blaze is reporting the allegations include perjury, immigration fraud, tax fraud, student loan fraud and possibly bigamy. The investigation is focused on Omar’s 2009 marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi who Judicial Watch claims is her biological brother that she married to skirt immigration laws.

And now there’s allegations the marriage might also have been used to obtain illegal student loans and that while she was married to Said Elmi, Omar allegedly filed illegal joint tax returns with Ahmed Hirsi. He’s the father of her three children who she religiously married in 2002, separated from in 2008, then legally married him in 2018 before legally divorcing him.

Omar calls the allegations baseless yet refuses and has four months to answer questions or turn over any documents, though soon she may be compelled to turn over those documents and answer questions.

Mueller Hearing Highlights Democrat Damage to FBI https://www.limitstogrowth.org/articles/2019/07/27/mueller-hearing-highlights-democrat-damage-to-fbi/ Sat, 27 Jul 2019 16:41:16 +0000 https://www.limitstogrowth.org/?p=17990 The Mueller hearing looked pretty uninteresting on TV, being powered as it was by Democrats’ insanely persistent pursuit of impeachment of the president, a project that began among the D-party before Donald Trump had even been inaugurated.

But there were other facts being revealed to experienced Washington veterans, and one appeared Thursday on Tucker Carlson [...]]]> The Mueller hearing looked pretty uninteresting on TV, being powered as it was by Democrats’ insanely persistent pursuit of impeachment of the president, a project that began among the D-party before Donald Trump had even been inaugurated.

But there were other facts being revealed to experienced Washington veterans, and one appeared Thursday on Tucker Carlson Tonight: former FBI Deputy Assistant Director of Counterterrorism Terry Turchie brought his national security expertise to analyze the proceedings.

One big headline: while the major accusation against Trump for years has been that he colluded with the Russians, Turchie observed, “And if there’s anything that was in the purview of Director Mueller, it was to look at Russian influence in the 2016 elections. And in fact, he didn’t do that.”

Turchie didn’t mention the previous president by name, but noted, “The FBI has been compromised . . . by the Democratic Party.”

It’s discouraging to see America’s premier law enforcement agency so corrupted, but that’s what the Deep State does — bend government institutions to the will of the elites.

Here’s the full interview:

TUCKER CARLSON: Well, more than 200 times yesterday, former Special Counsel Robert Mueller deflected or declined to answer a direct question while testifying before Congress. Anyone watching at home learned very little about Russia, but it was not a total loss. Viewers learned how to use the word “purview” from the sheer number of times Mueller said a topic wasn’t in his:

MUELLER: It’s outside my purview.

It’s outside my purview.

With regard to Steele, that’s beyond my purview.

As I said before, I will say again, it’s not my purview.

CARLSON: So, Mueller’s testimony in the end was weird, sad and embarrassing. But was it more than that? Could it have been harmful to the national security of this country? Terry Turchie suggests it might have been. Turchie is a former FBI Deputy Assistant Director of Counterterrorism, and he joins us tonight. Terry, thanks a lot for coming on.

TERRY TURCHIE: Thank you, Tucker.

CARLSON: You’re suggesting that this might actually have hurt the country. How?

TURCHIE: Well, absolutely, I think in fact, I’ve talked to a number of former agents today, and yesterday after the hearings, and I think we’re pretty sure and feel pretty confident that we should be saying right now that we’re probably going through one of the most dangerous times in our country’s history, because we feel that what came out of this and what came out of those hearings, definitely confirmed our worst fears from two years ago.

And that is, from all the pieces that came out and all the pieces that we’ve collected, we feel like the Democratic Party is the hostile intelligence service here, if you will, that targeted the President and wants to get him removed from office. And if there’s anything that was in the purview of Director Mueller, it was to look at Russian influence in the 2016 elections. And in fact, he didn’t do that.

I mean, what he did is, he took facts from everywhere and that entire report is trying to pin those facts around the idea that the theory that Donald Trump was in bed with the Russians; that is not the way you do an investigation.

And yesterday when he concluded his testimony said, one of the real bad things here is they’re going to do it again. Well, yes, they are, because he did nothing to stop it. And the FBI did nothing to stop it. And that’s what really makes this different.

The FBI has been compromised and the facts are very clear. We don’t know today if it’s still compromised by the Democratic Party, and too many questions remain unanswered. We don’t have time to go into all of them.

But let me just give you one little piece of something that we look at when we do counterintelligence investigations like this. You always look at and you ask, who initiated the meeting? In any kind of thing — who initiated this meeting? With say the target. And so let’s take Trump Tower. They all are raving about that terrible meeting at Trump Tower.

That meeting was initiated by Natalia Veselnitskaya. She is the one who called Donald Trump, Jr., not the other way around.

CARLSON: That’s correct.

TURCHIE: Before she did that, what did she do? She met with Fusion GPS that Bob Mueller has no idea who they are. I mean, I was crushed when I saw that. What did Glenn Simpson, the President of Fusion GPS, who had he met with before all of this? He’d met with Perkins Coie, the law firm that was representing the DNC and paying for and filtering money to Christopher Steele to write the dossier.

The same law firm, by the way, that would not allow the FBI to get into the DNC network, when we had the e-mails all hacked. This is awful. This is this is very obvious. And I think you’d be hard pressed to find an experienced FBI counterintelligence agent who really knows what they’re talking about.

I worked Russian counterintelligence for 20 years. So did many of the people I talked to. This is not about Donald Trump. This is about the Democratic Party weaponizing Intelligence agencies to convince the nation. They’ve known for decades as to how those people work, and in this instance, turning it against the President to get him removed from office. That’s what the resistance does. We are now going through the revolution that we started in 1960.

CARLSON: Terry Turchie, thank you for that.

Trump Administration Takes Action against Red Chinese Threat https://www.limitstogrowth.org/articles/2018/12/22/trump-administration-takes-action-against-red-chinese-threat/ Sat, 22 Dec 2018 22:32:59 +0000 https://www.limitstogrowth.org/?p=17256 The public discussion about the danger to America from Red China does not correspond with the actual peril, since big money from the Chi-Coms has corrupted much of American business, plus the press is always loathe to speak ill of the diverse.

Lou Dobbs has long been a rare exception: he was reporting on China [...]]]> The public discussion about the danger to America from Red China does not correspond with the actual peril, since big money from the Chi-Coms has corrupted much of American business, plus the press is always loathe to speak ill of the diverse.

Lou Dobbs has long been a rare exception: he was reporting on China espionage in 2007 with the crime of Chi Mak, an engineer who stole critical technology that allows submarines to run silently in a case that was then called “the most significant Chinese spying case in two decades.”

Dobbs also reported around the same time that Red China had 3000 front companies in the US for the purpose of stealing US technology and industrial secrets, so there have been plenty of crimes to investigate, but Washington wasn’t interested.

But more analysis and prosecution have been bubbling up recently during the Trump administration. One important case has been that of the Huawei tech mogul whose recent arrest in Canada made the Chi-Coms howl:

How arrest of Chinese ‘princess’ exposes regime’s world domination plot, By Steven W. Mosher, New York Post, December 22, 2018

Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou’s arrest in Vancouver on Dec. 6 led to immediate blowback.

Furious Chinese Communists have begun arresting innocent Canadians in retaliation. So far, three of these “revenge hostages” have been taken and are being held in secret jails on vague charges. Beijing hints that the hostage count may grow if Meng is not freed and fast.

Even for a thuggish regime like China’s, this kind of action is almost unprecedented.

So who is Meng Wanzhou?

Currently under house arrest and awaiting extradition to the US, she will face charges that her company violated US sanctions by doing business with Iran and committed bank fraud by disguising the payments it received in return.

But to say that she is the CFO of Huawei doesn’t begin to explain her importance — or China’s reaction.

It turns out that “Princess” Meng, as she is called, is Communist royalty. Her grandfather was a close comrade of Chairman Mao during the Chinese Civil War, who went on to become vice governor of China’s largest province.

She is also the daughter of Huawei’s Founder and Chairman, Ren Zhengfei. Daddy is grooming her to succeed him when he retires.

In other words, Meng is the heiress apparent of China’s largest and most advanced hi-tech company, and one which plays a key role in China’s grand strategy of global domination. (Continues)

On Thursday, Tucker Carlson interviewed Michael Pillsbury, a long-time critic of Red China and author of The Hundred-Year Marathon: China’s Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower. Recent actions of the Trump Administration against Chinese thefts and espionage have put the topic more in the news, for which Pillsbury was grateful that the public would understand how China intends “to steal their way to global leadership.”

It’s definitely good that America is learning that the Chi-Coms are not our friends — maybe we could stop admitting them as students and immigrants.

TUCKER CARLSON: The Administration today issued a strong condemnation of a major foreign power that routinely hacks American infrastructure, steals national secrets, technology, personal information in huge quantities.

The Director of the FBI called this country the greatest long-term threat to America’s wellbeing. Russia, oh sorry, excuse me. China, misread that, for more than two decades now, of course, it has always been China, America’s greatest geopolitical rival.

You wouldn’t know that though from watching television. Even this week, with this new news about China, there’s only one foreign power on the radar considered a threat. You know what it is.

CHRIS CUOMO, CNN: The Russians exploited a massive backdoor into the foundation of our democracy.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Moscow’s attack on American democracy.

TONY ROMM, WASHINGTON POST: The work by Russian agents to try to destabilize American democracy.

DON LEMON, CNN: It’s everything you need to know about the threat to our democracy.

DAVID GERGEN, COMMENTATOR: The long-term damage is going to be to weaken our democracy.

ELISE JORDAN, MSNBC: You have Republicans who are silent and seemingly OK with this kind of attack on our democracy.

CARLSON: These people are so stupid it’s amazing they’re employed.

Michael Pillsbury, not stupid, and employed, Director of the Center for Chinese Strategy, the Hudson Institute, author of the remarkable book, The Hundred-year Marathon: China’s Secret Strategy to Replace America As the Global Superpower, a strategy no longer secret, thanks to his book.

Mr. Pillsbury joins us tonight. Thank you very much for coming on. So, this seems like a confirmation, this announcement today, of what we may have known, but still striking.

MICHAEL PILLSBURY: Yes. I think when the Director of the FBI calls China our main rival and then specifically said their goal is to replace us as the global superpower, that’s the subtitle of my book.

So, it’s not just good news for me though, Tucker. It shows the recognition of the problem of China is now getting quite widespread.

CARLSON: Give us a scale of the hacking efforts by the Chinese government here.

PILLSBURY: Well they’re number one, by far, more than the Russians. They have a number of techniques, some of which were revealed today, formerly classified matters. There’s this wonderful term, I hope you’ll start using called, Stone Panda. It’s the codename for the Chinese unit that’s been doing this.

CARLSON: Sounds like a restaurant but I like it.

PILLSBURY: And it seems to, according to this declassified material, it seems to go back 12 years. It seems to focus on American companies. The data that they stole then can help them in negotiations, business negotiations with American companies. They also get trade secrets.

It’s massive. And it seems to be focused on the high-end technology sectors that China would need to dominate by 2030 or 2035 in order to be the world leader. So, in other words, they’re going to steal their way to global leadership, let’s put it that way — it’s more polite than domination. And the FBI is blowing the whistle today along with the Deputy Attorney General.

The pity is, as you know from our local press, there’s been a big leak that Steve Mnuchin and the Treasury Department were going to offer sanctions today as punitive for these things that DoJ and the FBI are finding.

For some reason, at the last minute, Treasury pulled out, so they weren’t at the announcement and they’re not putting the sanctions forward. So, this leak shows dissent inside the Trump team.

And, of course, the Chinese have a strategy that Vice President Pence spoke about back in October that they want to divide the Trump Administration. They know they’re hawks and doves. So this is good news. It raises public awareness for what China is up to.

There were no actual sanctions announced other than the indictment of these two Chinese hackers out of possible 10,000 hackers, let’s say.

CARLSON: Meanwhile, there are calls for more Russia sanctions. It just tells you everything. Michael Pillsbury, thank you very much for this and all you’ve done on this topic.

So, you can’t exactly call the increased enforcement a “crackdown” but it’s been a start.

Robert Mueller’s Willful Ignorance, Then and Now https://www.limitstogrowth.org/articles/2017/12/13/robert-muellers-willful-ignorance-then-and-now/ Wed, 13 Dec 2017 17:08:17 +0000 https://www.limitstogrowth.org/?p=15971 The former head of the FBI Robert Mueller has a stellar reputation for integrity, at least among the scribbler classes, and he has been praised as the perfect human to snoop into Donald Trump’s alleged “collusion” (not a crime) with Russia.

But Robert Spencer has a different opinion about Mueller, based on the director’s removal of jihad facts from the FBI’s counterterrorist training in 2012.

As Spencer has written for years on his website JihadWatch.org and in numerous well footnoted books, Islam is a supremacist ideology that seeks world domination.

As Spencer explained in Why Jihad Watch:

Why Jihad Watch? Because non-Muslims in the West, as well as in India, China, Russia, and the world over, are facing a concerted effort by Islamic jihadists, the motives and goals of whom are largely ignored by the Western media, to destroy their societies and impose Islamic law upon them — and to commit violence to that end even while their overall goal remains out of reach. That effort goes under the general rubric of jihad. . . .

The history of Islam is one of violent conquest of the lands of non-believers, and nothing is different today, except than unwise immigration has invited millions of muslims to enter western nations without an armed invasion required.

The map below shows the early history of Islam’s expansion. Note that the arrows denote military campaigns.

But Robert Mueller apparently found the history of Islam and the koran’s instructions to kill disobedient infidels to be unimportant in counterterrorist training. Isn’t understanding the motivation of jihadists helpful to law enforcement officers?

This is basic stuff that is important for national security, nevertheless Mueller removed it from training materials — yet we are supposed to believe he can investigate the President of the United States fairly.

Robert Spencer posted an explainer video on December 7, based on an earlier article from the Front Page website:

Robert Mueller, Agent of Willful Ignorance, By Robert Spencer, FrontPageMag.com, November 28, 2017

It was Mueller who made sure that the U.S. government would ignore and deny the motivating ideology behind the jihad threat.

It has come to light that as director of the FBI, Robert Mueller, who is currently the special counsel looking for any dirt he can find on Donald Trump, presided over the 2012 removal of all counterterror training materials of any mention of Islam and jihad in connection with terrorism. Since then, our law enforcement and intelligence officials have been blundering along in self-imposed darkness about the motivating ideology behind the jihad threat. This, it turns out, was Mueller’s doing.

In February 2012, the Obama Administration purged more than one thousand documents and presentations from counter-terror training material for the FBI and other agencies. This material was discarded at the demand of Muslim groups, which had deemed it inaccurate or offensive to Muslims.

This purge was several years in the making, and I was – inadvertently – the one who touched it off. In August 2010, when I gave a talk on Islam and jihad to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force — one of many such talks I gave to government agencies and military groups in those years. While some had counseled me to keep these talks quiet so as to avoid attracting the ire of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the possibility of that pressure seemed to me to make it all the more important to announce my appearances publicly, so as to show that the U.S. government was not going to take dictation from a group linked to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Those who had urged silence were proven correct, however, for the Obama administration was indeed disposed to take dictation from CAIR. CAIR sent a series of letters to Mueller and others demanding that I be dropped as a counter-terror trainer; the organization even started a “coalition” echoing this demand, and Jesse Jackson and other Leftist luminaries joined it.

At the FBI, Mueller made no public comment on CAIR’s demand, and so it initially appeared that CAIR’s effort had failed. But I was never again invited to provide counter-terror training for any government agency, after having done so fairly regularly for the previous five years. CAIR’s campaign to keep me from taking part in counter-terror training was, of course, not personal. They targeted me simply because I told the truth, just as they would target anyone else who dared do so.

Although Mueller was publicly silent, now we know that he was not unresponsive. And the Islamic supremacists and their Leftist allies didn’t give up. In the summer and fall of 2011, the online tech journal Wired published several “exposés” by far-Left journalist Spencer Ackerman, who took the FBI to task for training material that spoke forthrightly and truthfully about the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat.
