US to Exit UN Human Rights Council
Our UN Ambassador Nikki Haley confirmed Tuesday that the US will be exiting the United Nations Human Rights Council.
“We did not make this decision lightly. When this administration began 17 months ago, we were well aware of the enormous flaws in the Human Rights Council,” she continued. “We could have withdrawn immediately. We did not do that. Instead, we made a good faith effort to resolve the problems.” Continue reading

Oops!
Hawaii, the 50th state in our union, is a liberal paradise. Voting Republican there is considered a felony. In this hard left Valhalla everything is run top to bottom by Democrats. That’s why it is disingenuous that after someone mistakenly hit the wrong button to sound a false alarm of an impending nuclear attack, the knee-jerk assclowns on the Left blamed Donald Trump.
‘He feels really bad’: Civil Defense employee who sparked terror in Hawaii by accidentally triggering ballistic missile warning will be ‘retrained’ say officials after thousands fled to bomb shelters
- The alert was issued to residents’ phones at 8.07am on Saturday morning.
- It told them to seek shelter and warned of an ‘inbound ballistic missile threat’.
- It took 38 minutes for a second phone alert to be issued across the state.
- By then, terrified residents had flocked to shelters and into their garages.
- Civil Defense employee accidentally hit alert, was unaware until his phone got it.
- An FCC investigation into the incident is underway, officials said.
EMA Administrator Vern Miyagi (left) and Hawaii Governor David Ige (right) apologized for the error at a press conference Saturday afternoon

Klein: For 38 Terrifying Minutes, Hawaii Experienced Israeli Life under Rocket Threat
GOOD POINT
For thirty-eight terrifying minutes on Saturday, Hawaii residents unfortunately experienced a sampling of life in Israel during recent wars here when Hawaiians received a mistaken emergency alert notification warning of a “ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii.”
Jim Carrey, Jamie Lee Curtis Lash Out At President Trump Over Hawaii Nuke Scare
Carrey tweeted about a half-hour later, writing along with posting an image of a mushroom cloud that Trump will bring about a global nuclear holocaust, “I woke up this morning in Hawaii with ten minutes to live. It was a false alarm, but a real psychic warning. If we allow this one-man Gomorrah and his corrupt Republican congress to continue alienating the world we are headed for suffering beyond all imagination. ;^\”
Democrat Tulsi Gabbard blames Trump for false missile alert in Hawaii
Hawaii’s nutty Rep. Tulsi Gabbard blamed Trump for the false missile alert in Hawaii that made millions panic. She says it’s his fault because he hasn’t done what a handful of presidents before him had not been able to do either – solve North Korea.
If there’s one thing you actually CANNOT blame Trump for is the mess in North Korea. Each president before Trump has kicked the can down the road, even as we had more and more signs that they were building up their nuclear and ICBM capabilities. Yes, it falls on Trump’s lap, but it’s not an easy thing to solve, and he’s certainly trying.
In any case, given that some idiot in Hawaii just “pressed the wrong button” and panicked millions, maybe Tulsi should look after her own in the state before casting aspersions on the prezzy.
False missile alert: So are we buying this “wrong button” story?
When Allahpundit was covering the breaking news of Oh My God We’re All Going To Die yesterday, panic slowly turned to relief, but those feelings gave way to a mixture of anger and confusion. What the heck happened? By the end of the article we learn that the rather tardy apology from the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency (HEMA) boiled down to one excuse… somebody pushed the wrong button.

Trump says DACA ‘is probably dead’ because of Democrats
President Trump in a tweet on Sunday said the Obama-era policy that protects young immigrants known as “Dreamers” is “probably dead” and blamed its demise on Democrats.
“DACA is probably dead because the Democrats don’t really want it, they just want to talk and take desperately needed money away from our Military.”
In his series of tweets, Trump also renewed his call for a “merit” based immigration system.
“I, as President, want people coming into our Country who are going to help us become strong and great again, people coming in through a system based on MERIT. No more Lotteries! #AMERICA FIRST,” he said.

Trey Gowdy resigns as House Ethics Committee member
HIS COMMITTEE MEETS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS. NO CAMERAS, NO KABUKI THEATER.
FOR ALL HIS THEATRICS NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE AND NEVER WILL. IT’S ALL FOR SHOW.
Gowdy faced criticism late last year after it was revealed that he used $150,000 in taxpayer dollars to settle a dispute with a former aide, who had accused the GOP congressman of firing him after he refused to focus his work on investigating former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings, the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, said last month that it was “astonishing” Gowdy wouldn’t meet with a whistleblower who claimed to have information on former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn.
Iranian Officials Blast Trump Over Threat To Pull Out From Nuclear Deal
THEY THINK TRUMP CANNOT PULL OUT OF THE PHONY DEAL BOZO GAVE UP SO MUCH TO GET SIGNED. THEY’RE WRONG. ANY TREATY HAS TO BE APPROVED BY CONGRESS… AND WE ALL KNOW HOW WELL OBAMA WORKED WITH CONGRESS, DON’T WE?
Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement that it would not accept any renegotiation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), otherwise known as the 2015 nuclear deal, and promised a response to new U.S. sanctions.
“While Trump is forced to carry out the binding measures included in the JCPOA, he is continuing his past years approach, and in order to show his hostility towards the great Iranian nation, he has put some Iranian and non-Iranian individuals on the sanctions list out of desperation under illegal, worn-out, and ridiculous pretexts so as to make up for at least part of his failures,” the statement reads.
New United Nations Boss Unveils Plan to Promote Global Mass Migration
THERE’LL BE NO MASS MIGRATION TO THE U.S. AS LONG AS TRUMP IS PRESIDENT.
Guterres, a former Socialist Party prime minister in his native Portugal, took over the top job at the UN on January 1st, having previously served as the institution’s High Commissioner for Refugees.
His article, titled ‘Migration can benefit the world. This is how we at the UN plan to help’, makes the bold claim that mass migration “powers economic growth, reduces inequalities and connects diverse societies”, in order to promote the Global Compact for Migration.

Judicial Anarchy Over DACA
Another activist judge runs roughshod over the separation of powers.
Needless to say, President Trump was not happy with this latest example of judicial overreach.
“It just shows everyone how broken and unfair our Court System is when the opposing side in a case (such as DACA) always runs to the 9th Circuit and almost always wins before being reversed by higher courts,” President Trump tweeted, referring to the District Court judge from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.
Protecting the national security of the citizens of the United States and concerns over whether Obama had overstepped the constitutional bounds of his executive authority by ordering DACA’s implementation in the first place play second fiddle in Judge Alsup’s mind to the welfare of immigrants in the country illegally and of the University of California at which they are students or staff outweigh any other considerations.
Notably, one of the plaintiffs in this case – Janet Napolitano, serving in her capacity as chancellor of the University of California – is using California taxpayers’ money to defend the constitutionally shaky DACA which she helped to create as Secretary of Homeland Security in 2012.

83% drop in refugee admissions
Oct-Nov 2016: 18,300 refugees were admitted to the U.S.
Oct-Nov 2017: 3,108 refugees were admitted to the U.S.
Meanwhile:
- The Trump administration announced it has pulled out of the United Nation’s U.N. for global responsibility-sharing for refugees and migrants initiative. Nikki Haley, our ambassador to the United Nations, said the initiative “is simply not compatible with U.S. sovereignty.”
- SCOTUS ruled to allow the Trump administration to fully enforce its travel ban on residents from six radical regimes and failed states, including Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen, and on officials from North Korea and Venezuela.

Thursday Tidbits
Just got into a battle of wits with a guy on a Chicago Bears fanblog, of all things. It wasn’t a fair fight. He went off on a rant about teams “whiteballing” that racist punk Colin Kaepernick just because he wouldn’t stand for that “raggedy-ass flag.” That hit a sore spot with your intrepid reporter. I told him better men than him have died for his right to spread his racist horseshit, usually using all caps for emphasis. It’s been bad enough being a Bears fan the past few years, but some people just can’t help but inject their grievances into any conversation.

North Korean Defector Describes In Detail Kim Jong Un’s Extremely Brutal Executions
THIS IS WHAT WE’RE DEALING WITH. STILL THINK NEGOTIATING WILL WORK?
“The musicians were brought out, tied up, hooded and apparently gagged, so they could not make a noise, not beg for mercy or even scream,” Hee Yeon explained. “They were lashed to the end of anti-aircraft guns.”
“A gun was fired, the noise was deafening, absolutely terrifying and the guns were fired one after the other,” she said. “The musicians just disappeared each time the guns were fired into them. Their bodies were blown to bits, totally destroyed, blood and bits flying everywhere.”
Hee Yeon revealed that Kim’s henchman plucked North Korean schoolgirls from their homes to work as sex slaves.
“Officials came to our schools and picked out teenage girls to work at one of his ‘hundreds’ of homes around Pyongyang,” Hee Yeon said. “They take the prettiest and ensure they have straight, good legs.”
“They have to sleep with him and they cannot make a mistake or object because they could very easily simply disappear,” she explained to reporters, citing reports from one of her friends.

Leftists Get Kids Cancer Fundraiser Cancelled Because It was At Trump Golf Course
The “Tri at the Trump” triathlon to raise money for kids with cancer was cancelled this week.
Leftists complained about the name. Even after the organizers changed the name to “Tri for Good” the bitter leftists were still upset so the organizers cancelled the event.
KIDS WITH CANCER CAN’T STOP THE HATERS FROM HATING
But this year, the Tri at the Trump organizers say potential participants were triggered by the Trump name, and, over the summer, the group received several aggressive complaints about both the event, and the Trump National Golf Course.

At any rate, you would think so if you listened to the lefts’ reaction to his remarkable speech to the U.N. yesterday. He served notice to one and all that he was, indeed, in charge.

His address was welcomed by the right and left the socio-communists in horror.

Trump Hits Home Run for America in UN Speech
President Trump gave his first official speech to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday morning, and was immediately berated by the New York Times (Trump’s “characteristically confrontational message”) and the Washington Post (“Trump’s menacing United Nations speech, annotated”). Sen. Dianne Feinstein lambasted him for words that “greatly escalated the danger” from Iran and North Korea. And the foreign minister of Venezuela’s socialist dictatorship, Jorge Arreaza — apparently trying to formulate some sort of supreme insult — compared Trump in 2017 to President Ronald Reagan in 1982. With that kind of reaction, you might just start to suspect that Trump did something right.

Days after four Americans were butchered on September 11, 2012, then-president Barack Obama went before the gaseous tinpots at the United Nations and apologized profusely for a non-existent video he conveniently blamed for what he knew full well to be a terrorist attack. With an election six weeks away, no price was too great to pay to keep up the charade until afterward … as long as somebody else paid the price. He loved and respected the foreign squatters because they hated Americans and Jews as viscerally as he did.
[CtH: “The Lord hates liars.” – Proverbs 12:22. Just sayin’.]
President Trump is giving a formal address before the UN today. Expect his attitude to be far, far different.

During the 365-day period beginning June 7, 2016, Chicago had 711 first- and second-degree homicides. Of those, 556 (or 78.1 percent) occurred in just ten of the city’s police districts. Those districts—which are contiguous—constitute a geographical area almost half the city’s size and house 40.3 percent of the city’s nearly 2.7 million residents.

The fact that Brazile leaked questions to Clinton before two different primary debates only came out when WikiLeaks published stolen emails from Clinton campaign chair John Podesta in October.
She dismisses reporting about the leaked emails as the media inventing a story out of nothing.
