Although conspiracy theories about MAGA being fake frontgroup for zionist lobbies are grossly exagerrated, to give credit where due MAGA is standing against alleged anti-semitism by this rookie congresswoman and is calling for her resignation.


Rep. Omar fires back after Trump calls for her resignation: 'You have trafficked in hate your whole life'

By Kate Sullivan and Devan Cole, CNN
Wed February 13, 2019

Washington (CNN)Rep. Ilhan Omar on Wednesday rejected President Donald Trump's call for her to resign after she suggested US support of Israel is motivated by money, charging that the President is hypocritical given his history of race-baiting statements.

"You have trafficked in hate your whole life—against Jews, Muslims, Indigenous, immigrants, black people and more. I learned from people impacted by my words. When will you?" Omar, a Minnesota Democrat, wrote in a tweet. (https://twitter.com/IlhanMN/status/1095683268693905410)
Omar apologized on Monday (https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/11/politics/ilhan-omar-aipac-backlash/index.html) after she ignited a firestorm with her tweets suggesting US support of Israel is motivated by money. The messages -- she suggested support of Israel is driven specifically by donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a prominent pro-Israel lobby group -- were condemned by lawmakers on both sides of the aisle as anti-Semitic.
On Tuesday, Trump called on her to resign, saying during a Cabinet meeting that "anti-Semitism has no place in the United States Congress."

Mega-donor Adelson, with access and influence, scores two pro- Israel victories (https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/white-house/article211098039.html)
These are heady days for casino billionaire and megadonor Sheldon Adelson.
A passionate and hawkish advocate for Israel with close ties to its prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, Adelson was in Jerusalem today for a celebration of the U.S. embassy’s relocation to that city, a longstanding priority for the mogul. Similarly, Adelson had pushed hard for President Donald Trump to pull out of the Iran nuclear deal, which happened last week.
And the day after that announcement, Adelson quietly slipped into the White House for a private meeting with Trump and three top administration officials: Vice President Mike Pence, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and an Adelson favorite, National Security Adviser John Bolton, according to two conservative sources familiar with the previously unreported private event.




Be interesting to see how other leadership of America-First GOP-Adelson responds to this latest alleged hate speech scandal, it has taken some credibility hits lately following attacks from hard right conservatives.

Yep. Nothing like using the most despicable people you can find to attack the most despicable people on the other team of government. I'm sure these little stunts are just what TPTB needs to get the sheep to defend despicability in one form or the other.

Isn't it great when the foreign born representative that has made it a goal to attack America and the founding principles of this country, is also the only person to step up and stand up for Americans in the literal face of corrupt evil? Where are all of the so called tough GOPers that speak all day about the dangers of expansive big government, yet don't have 1/1000th the courage to do what she did yesterday? Why did a woman of Islamic faith do more to stand up for Americans that have next to no voice, than any of these so called American values oriented serving congressmen and senators? Between that and calling out the Israeli lobby just a few days ago, she has bigger balls than any serving congressmen and senator with the exception of Rand, despite her SJWing anti-liberty nonsense.

You know this is how corrupted we are to the core and that our supposed leaders of liberty in both wings of the legislative body have zero gall and have been all bought and paid for. Omar proved this in no more than 5 minutes of speaking time. If we still had a functionally working legislative branch of government, every one of these corrupt cronies that are giving testimony would be grilled at least this hard every single day. Instead we get day after day of soft ball pre-arranged questioning. If some of these younger congressmen and senators want to make a name for themselves, take note.

Pathetic and telling.

Elliott Abrams Smacked Down In Front Of Everybody (https://medium.com/@caityjohnstone/ilhan-omar-smacks-down-elliott-abrams-in-front-of-everybody-8cc7d88d6569)

Elliott Abrams is a monster. The atrocities that he has facilitated (https://theintercept.com/2019/01/30/elliott-abrams-venezuela-coup/), covered up and whitewashed in Panama (https://twitter.com/schwarz/status/1088916488470315008), El Salvador (https://twitter.com/schwarz/status/1088919656763703300), Gaza (https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2008/04/gaza200804), Guatemala (https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1095765002642956295.html), Nicaragua (https://people.com/archive/elliott-abrams-must-now-face-the-music-on-nicaragua-and-congress-is-calling-the-tune-vol-27-no-23/) and Iraq (https://www.counterpunch.org/2019/02/01/elliott-abrams-a-human-rights-horror-show-in-three-acts/) are utterly unforgivable, and the fact that he has been appointed as special envoy to Venezuela (https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/02/elliott-abrams-special-envoy-venezuela-190212012146896.html) by the Trump administration completely invalidates the US government’s Venezuela narrative all by itself. Even without the blatant lies (https://fair.org/home/western-media-fall-in-lockstep-for-cheap-trump-rubio-venezuela-aid-pr-stunt/), the known oil agendas (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTE0SQA2jU8), the CIA ops (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/cia-venezuela-crisis-government-mike-pompeo-helping-install-new-remarks-a7859771.html), the mounting evidence (https://www.democracynow.org/2019/2/8/headlines/report_us_based_plane_caught_bringing_arms_into_ve nezuela) of US arms smuggling to right-wing militias, and America’s extensive history of utterly disastrous regime change interventionism, the fact that this administration would appoint such a ghoulish individual to spearhead its Venezuela interventionism alone is enough to show you that the US government has nothing but malevolent intentions for that nation.

So it was nice to see someone in that government calling him what he is right to his face in front of everybody. …

“In 1991, you pleaded guilty to two counts of withholding information from Congress regarding your involvement in the Iran-Contra affair, for which you were later pardoned by President George H.W. Bush,” Omar accurately stated. “I fail to understand why members of this committee, or the American people should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful.” …

“On February 8th, 1982, you testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee about US foreign policy in El Salvador. In that hearing, you dismissed as communist propaganda a report about the massacre of El Mozote of which more than 800 civilians, including children as young as two years old, were brutally murdered by U.S.-trained troops. During that massacre, some of those troops bragged about raping 12 year-old girls before they killed them. You later said that the U.S. policy in El Salvador was a ‘fabulous achievement.’ Yes or no, do you still think so?” … “Yes or no, do you think that massacre was a fabulous achievement that happened under our watch?” Omar asked.

“That is a ridiculous question and I will not respond to it, no,” Abrams replied. “I’m sorry Mr. Chairman, I am not going to respond to that kind of personal attack which is not a question.”

“I will take that as a yes,” Omar said. “Yes or no, would you support an armed faction within Venezuela that engages in war crimes, crimes against humanity, or genocide if you believe they were serving US interests as you did in Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua?”
“I’m not going to respond to that question,” Abrams again answered. “I’m sorry, I don’t think this entire line of questioning is meant to be real questions, and so I will not reply.” …

There is no legitimate reason for Elliott Abrams to ever find himself before a group of people who are ostensibly concerned with accountability and responsibility without being asked such questions. But that didn’t stop all the world’s worst people from crawling out of the woodwork to his defense. …

This is the bipartisan establishment orthodoxy that is guiding … foreign policy, America. One which claims Elliott Abrams is a saint, which claims criticism of US warmongering is antisemitic, and which throws a bold Somali-American woman under the bus for speaking the truth …

US warmongering is the most aggressively protected part of the establishment narrative matrix, because US warmongering is the glue that holds the unipolar empire together. … The difficulty for our rulers, though, is that warmongering is a very difficult thing to paint a pretty picture of, especially with our newfound ability to quickly share ideas and information around the globe. I mean, look at Elliott Abrams. Seriously, just watch him talk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Mutu-P7_NA). That demonic grimace is the prettiest face they could find to put on their Venezuela agenda. I find that very encouraging.

The reason they work so hard to manufacture our consent for warmongering agendas is because they need that consent. They wouldn’t propagandize us so aggressively if they didn’t need us all trusting them and believing their stories, so the best way to fight establishment warmongering is to circulate disbelief in their stories. Whenever you see someone like Ilhan Omar drawing attention to the gaping plot holes in agendas like regime change interventionism in Venezuela, go ahead and help draw attention to it. … The weakest link in this chain is the propaganda. Attack there.

Abrams says more sanctions on Venezuela coming

By Moss Brennan The Washington Times
Wednesday, July 24, 2019

The Trump administration is readying a new round of economic sanctions in a bid to squeeze the government of Venezuelan socialist President Nicolas Maduro, President Trump’s point man on the crisis in Caracas said Wednesday.

Special representative to Venezuela Elliott Abrams told the Washington-based think tank Foundation for Defense of Democracies that the sanctions set to be announced Thursday are meant to keep the pressure on the Maduro government, which is locked in a power struggle with opposition leader Juan Guaido — the man Washington and a large number of allies say is Venezuela’s rightful leader.
