Trump said that the appeals court’s ruling blocking the travel ban was “incorrect and unsafe”:
We are saving American lives every single day. The court system has not made it easy for us. And we’ve even created a new office in Homeland Security dedicated to the forgotten American victims of illegal immigrant violence, of which there are many. We’ve taken decisive action to keep radical Islamic terrorists out of our country. Though parts of our necessary and constitutional actions were blocked by a judge’s — in my opinion — incorrect and unsafe ruling, our administration is working night and day to keep you safe, including reporters safe.
And is vigorously defending this lawful order. I will not back down from defending our country. I got elected on defense of our country. I keep my campaign promises, and our citizens will be very happy when they see the results. They already are; I can tell you that. Extreme vetting will be put in place, and it already is in place in many places. In fact, we had to go quicker than we thought because of the bad decision we received from a circuit that has been overturned at a record number. I’ve heard 80%. I find that hard to believe. That’s just a number I’ve heard, that they’re overturned 80% of the time.
I think that circuit is… That circuit is in chaos, and that circuit is, frankly, in turmoil. But we are appealing that, and we are going further. We’re issuing a new executive action next week that will comprehensively protect our country. So we’ll be going along the one path and hopefully winning that. At the same time, we will be issuing a new and very comprehensive order to protect our people, and that will be done sometime next week toward the beginning or middle, at the latest part.
He also said: “The press has become so dishonest that if we don’t talk about, we are doing a tremendous disservice to the American people.” Bravo!
And:
I have directed our defense community headed by our great general, now Secretary Mattis. He’s over there now working very hard to submit a plan for the defeat of ISIS, a group that celebrates the murder and torture of innocent people in large sections of the world. It used to be a small group, now it’s in large sections of the world.
They’ve spread like cancer. ISIS has spread like cancer – another mess I inherited. And we have imposed new sanctions on the nation of Iran, whose totally taken advantage of our previous administration, and they’re the world’s top sponsor of terrorism, and we’re not going to stop until that problem is properly solved. And it’s not properly solved now, it’s one of the worst agreements I’ve ever seen drawn by anybody. I’ve ordered plan to begin building for the massive rebuilding of the United States military.
Astonishing to hear an American President speaking this way. And it’s astonishing that it’s astonishing.
Carrie Rinker-Schaeffer says
Once again, a wonderful post Robert! You are a treasure. It is true that it’s” astonishing that it’s astonishing.” It is frustrating to see the media’s behavior. Even more so, is the widely held views on Islam and Islamophobia. I want to do all I can to support his efforts and your fantastic work. Thank you.

They are founders, along with Robert Muise and David Yerushalmi, of AFDI — the American Freedom Defense Initiative, working “below the radar” for litigation when stealth jihadists attempt to further weaken the First Amendment.
If any of us here who read the comments but have not recently or EVER taken a few minutes to email Pam Geller, Robert Muise, and David Yerushalmi with a short indication of gratitude, how about doing it tonight or tomorrow?

It was unbelievable to see Linda Sarsour, an Islamist Sharia Law promoter, leading thousands of women into protesting President Trump !
In the name of their freedom and self-respect, they were serving Islam’s political agenda which includes the most disgusting and systematic oppression
of women – ever !!! Westerners are being so badly manipulated…and it creates so much confusion…

If Iran is a top sponsor of terrorism, then what is Saudi Arabia? I applaud Trump for being so blunt and frank about Islam, but I find it aggravating that for all the rhetoric used, he leaves out islamic terror sponsor #1 Saudi Arabia.
9/11 was done by terrorists largely coming from Saudi Arabia, not by Iran, so why can we not cut ties with the devil and call them out for what they are.

*If Iran is a top sponsor of terrorism, then what is Saudi Arabia?* The quiet sower. The Iranian government has publicly declared war against the U.S. The Saudi government has not done so officially; unofficially is a different matter.

With all respect, I don’t believe that Assad reserving a few seats for Sunni Muslims in some future Syrian parliament would prevent Jihadists from wanting to wipe out the minority Alawites.
One of the only things Sunnis and Shia agree on is oppressing and slaughtering minority-sect Muslims and Infidels.
Angemon says
“If Iran is a top sponsor of terrorism”
Not “a top”, the top. And in addition to being the top terrorism-sponsoring nation, it is also seeking nuclear weapons with the expressed intent of destroying Israel. The Saudis don’t want Iran to get nuclear weapons – although for a completely different reason – and are cooperating with Israel on the matter, despite refusing to acknowledge Israel as a sovereign state.
Terry says
Angemon, The Saudis while not recognizing Israel, do a great deal of business with them (usually through third countries, or from other areas); trade intelligence reports; and-recall a few years ago. a Saudi prince PUBLICLY ( then sort of half assed way-backed down a little) that in a war between Hamas and Israel, he would give money to Israel to fight Hamas.
Iran OPENLY CALLS FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE US & ISRAEL.
S.A. does not.
That Saudi nationals were involved-not necessarily the government’s fault. The US has a slew of native born terrorists (the piece of shit who killed the half dozen or so people in the Ft Lauderdale airport, as a recent example; others abound)
Christianblood says
Angemon
You are totally wrong, Angemon! Iran is NOT the top sponsor of islamic terrorism, Saudi Arabia, the perpetrators of 9/11 attacks who murdered 3000 US citizens on a single day and the ideological source of every single jihadist/wahhabi/salafi attack around the globe is the top sponsor of islamic terrorism and that is Saudi Arabia. And you know what, just a few days ago Saudi Arabia, America’s ally, has received the top CIA award for fighting jihadists from the US government! What shame! Read it below:

And yet from Indonesia to Nigeria and from Sweden to Australia and all across the globe, the type of people who do this jihadist mass-murder on every single day are the Saudi-backed, Sunni Takfiri/Wahhabi/Salafists jihadists who are allied with the US and who are also theologically and ideologically rooted in the Wahhabi/Salafi/Takfiri Saudi Arabia.
vladkoval says

Christianblood says
vladkoval
No, I don’t prefer to be a dhimmie for Iran. I am acknowledging comparatively speaking that Saudi Arabia is the sponsor of the global wahhabi/salafi/takfiri jihadism which is rooted in Saudi Arabia.
Yesterday, for example, Hundreds of Shiite and Sufi civilians, including women and children were murdered in Iraq and in Pakistan by ISIS and ISIS is ideologically and religiously rooted not in Iran but in Saudi Arabia and gets millions of dollars from its supporters in Saudi Arabia and from other Wahabi oil rich countries in the gulf. To deny and ignore this fact is a great suicidal stupidity.
Allan Mandrowski says
Christianblood: you make so much sense by simply stating facts that vlad won’t be able to comprehend, because vlad is notorioulsy anti-russian for whatever reason that might be. And somehow Iran gets attributed top sponsor of terrorism, yet as you rightly so noted, it is sunni individuals of the wahabi / takfiri school rooted in Saudi Arabia who commit the mass murder on a world wide scale by blowing themselves up and committing to terror non stop.
vladkoval says
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beliefs_and_ideology_of_Osama_bin_Laden
Bin Laden was born in Saudi Arabia and had a close relationship with the Saudi royal family, but his opposition to the Saudi government stemmed from his radical ideology. The Saudi decision to allow the U.S. military into the country in 1990 to defend against a possible attack by Saddam Hussein upset bin Laden, although he was not necessarily opposed to the royal family at this time or going to war with Iraq and even offered to send his mujahedeen from Afghanistan to defend Saudi Arabia should Iraq attack, an offer which was rebuked by King Fahd. From his point of view, “for the Muslim Saudi monarchy to invite non-Muslim American troops to fight against Muslim Iraqi soldiers was a serious violation of Islamic law”.
Now you see why Bin Laden and ISIS are against USA. And why should ISIS not kill shias in Iraq and Pakistan if they view them as American stooges and allies?
Christianblood says
Allan Mandrowski
Thanks Allan! The only reason why America demonizes Iran is that Iran, for the past 38 years refused to become a yes-man kowtowing to American hegemonic imperialistic polices and kept its country totally independent. Obviously that is an unforgivable sin in the eyes of the American interventionist establishment! Let us also remember that in the last days of the Shah, American leadership thought they could work with the Ayatullahs and could put them in their pocket and then the US turned its backs to the Iranian Shah who was their long time ally. In other words, the Iranian regime is actually made in America!
America’s secret engagement with Khomeini started for the last 2 years of the Shah’s rule of Iran. For instance, (…the US told a Khomeini envoy that they were – in principle – open to the idea of changing the Iranian constitution, effectively abolishing the monarchy. And they gave the ayatollah a key piece of information – Iranian military leaders were flexible about their political future…) Please read more on the un-archived BBC link below:

Hizb’allah has attacked Israel with rockets, has kidnapped Israeli soldiers, has bombed the Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires–with Iranian help–killing 86 and injuring over 200 in South America’s worst terrorist attack; two years previously, Hizb’allah bombed the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires, killing 29 and injuring over 200–also with Iranian help. They hijacked a Kuwait Airlines plane. Four passengers were murdered, including two Americans.
They attacked U.S. Marine barracks with a truck bomb, killing 241 American military personnel stationed in Beirut as part of a peace-keeping force.
They have kidnapped and murdered large numbers of Jews and other Westerners over the years.
One can argue that this is not as bad as the Sunni body count, but it is still pretty horrific.

Actually, Jihad is a global phenomenon. The appalling Saudi Arabia does indeed sponsor a great deal of terrorism, but it is a mistake to believe that this is something they created.
Jihad violence is a key part of Islam itself, and was practiced by the “Prophet” and all of his followers.

These are all true points Graven. Hizballah and Iran concentrate their hatred not on the Wahhabi/Salafi/Jihadists who consider them as heretics and want them all dead but on the State of Israel. This is a bizarre reality! Graven, the leader of Hizballah said recently that
“Wahhabism is even more evil than Israel” and given the enmity he and his Iranian sponsors had for Israel that statement in itself has a lot weight and it was unbelievable he uttered it. It would be great if Iran abandons its hatred for Israel and re-establishes diplomatic relationship with Israel and focuses its energies on fighting ISIS and other global Salafi/Wahhabi terrorists.

Muslims often condemn each other as heretics and apostates–I don’t believe that this represents a real change.
Iran has vowed to “wipe Israel off the map”, and often leads rabid chants of “Death to Israel!” along with their chants of “Death to America!”.
Of course I would love to see this change, but I won’t be holding my breath. The Shia Mullahs are as wedded to the savagery of Islam as are their Sunni brothers.
Wellington says
One step at a time, Allan Mandrowski. Think here and also, divide and conquer.
Almost nothing can be accomplished in one fell swoop. Certainly opposing the ignorance and tyranny of the Islamic world cannot. Oh yeah, contemplate the geopolitical realities here. Remember, as examples, the free world aligned with the tyrant Stalin to defeat the tyrant Hitler and during the Cold War the West aligned with Tito’s Communist regime as a foil against the USSR. Sundry other examples I could provide to prove my overall point here (e.g., the multitude of seemingly contradictory alliances during The Thirty Years War) but I trust you get my aim.
Yes, it would be wonderful if free countries would only have to align with other free polities. But such is not the way of the world. Not even close. I think it has something to do with the fact that we live in a very imperfect world, which most surely has to do with just how imperfect the Homo sapiens species truly is. Just sayin’.
Terry says
Wellington, your statements about the alliances brings to mind one of my favorite of quotes of harry Truman (my opinion-ONLY good Dem the US ever had as pres.).
About a dictator. “Yes. he is a dictator. yes. he is a son of a bitch. BUT HE IS OUR SON OF A BITCH”.
Donovan Nuera says
Ann Coulter had a great article today at the top of the Drudge Report that asked why the Republicans in the House, like McCaul et al. , who had voted to pass an overwhelmingly a veto-proof bill that banned all Syrian and Iraqi immigrants indefinitely 15 months ago (but the bill was quashed in the Senate), did not jump to the defense of their President who only asked for a 3-6 month moratorium. The GOP is still full of cowards even after 80% retained their seats and we FINALLY have a Republican President to pass the stuff we had clamored for since 2006 and soon will have a SCOTUS that is conservative.
Coulter needs to be appointed by Trump to the new office of Czarina of “Getting Stuff Done!”
Jaladhi says
Gutless and spineless politicians of both parties are at fault. They simply look for the votes of Muslims and their allies!
mortimer says
Islamic countries that hide or defend or encourage Islamic terrorists should be punished by banning their citizens until those countries CRACK DOWN on the jihadists and LOCK THEM UP.
We want peace in the world.
Jaladhi says
And our “wise” judges will howl it is unconstitutional and it is Muslim ban!
Jaladhi says
I hope the “violent extremism” has been banished forever from the lexicons of our law enforcement. The truth about Islamic jihad and its murderous rampage throughout the world be told to Americans and Europeans in the plain terms so that there is no doubt how murderous and evil this “religion” is! All those Islamic apologists, academia, MSM and politicians beware that their lies will be thoroughly exposed to the people – I hope!
Wellington says
OMG, we finally have a fighter for America——-and by extension for all the West (this of course will be lost on people like Theresa May, Angela Merkel, Justin Trudeau and the present head honcho in the Vatican).
Whatever Trump’s flaws are, and he indeed has flaws (who the hell doesn’t?), they are as nothing compared to his strengths. He reminds me of Andrew Jackson more than any other President and a nation could do far worse than Andy Jackson and yet very unlikely better (N.B., President Trump has placed a portrait of Andrew Jackson in the Oval Office———-not a coincidence I would contend).
Note of caution: Since Trump is honest to his core and possessed of immense common sense and great street smarts (though still not enough pure knowledge), the forces of ignorance and malevolence will do their best, triply so, to destroy him (including by mockery, a la a talented but foolish Alec Baldwin on that serially non-humorous show, Saturday Night Live, and by one of the most {THE most?} foolish Senators in history, Al Franken of Minnesota, and thus mockery of the Left is an imperative too that should not be overlooked in the overall scheme of things——after all, why should the Left have a monopoly on humor?).
Count on this attempted destruction of President Trump by those twin enemies of liberty—–the Western Left and Islam. It is ongoing and will continue without cessation. So, write to President Trump, whether American or not, at white house.gov, and indicate your support for what he is trying to do, which is to preserve not only traditional America, noble as that cause is, but to preserve the greatest civilization in all of history, the West. Oh yeah, write to him because he has many enemies, none of whom have the best of America or the West at heart. Indeed, such people hate both.
So, write to him. Do it.
Rufolino says
Hear hear, Wellington !
common sense says
Andrew Jackson,”American lion” by Jon Meachum. 9 years old now but a very good historical read. Some striking similarities exist in the smearing of Jackson’s family and that of Trump’s.
I however find no solace in Trump acting like Jackson or imbibing in the level of ruthlessness that old hickory would often display and wield. No doubt Jackson was tough, overcame great odds and did service to our countries laborers of the era. My Irish roots speak to a long line if immigrant workers that voted for Jackson’s modern democratic party of which he was the first elected president. That party died with JFK,Bobby and MLK imo. Trump has no need to prove he is anything like Jackson. Trump has enough Trump in him already he needs more “pure knowledge” as you suggest or at least to develop the ability to display the knowlege that he does have to create more favorable outcomes. Jackson did not have the class that Trump has and that might not mean much to a lot of people but you have read the book and also know Trump’s story as well to understand. Both lost family members early in life which is why Trump won’t drink, Jackson was left orphaned which created a rough upbringing.
In addition Trump fully understands his own ego and knows he is a prima donna, most aggressors understand that about themselves. One thing is for sure despite everything- we are winning, stay the course and push until we get what we want. Most everything is going through as Trump promised some as legislation as well, not just by execurive order.
If you do decide to write to the POTUS send the same letter with your best penmanship 10 at a time for 10 weeks in a row. Only 10 letters reach the Presidents desk every week after screening.
Happy Friday!

Fine post, Wellington.
dumbledoresarmy says
Agreed.
I do most sincerely hope that Mr Spencer and also Mr ‘Hugh Fitzgerald’ (under his actual name, of course, not under his ‘nom de guerre’) have written and *are* writing to President Trump. And are ‘tweeting’ him.
Mr Raymond Ibrahim should be writing, too; he should make President Trump and his military and homeland-security advisers well aware of his (Raymond’s) classic articles on Mohammedan deception, in all its multifarious forms, so as to dissuade Trump of any idea of ‘deal-making’ with Mohammedans. If one is an Infidel, one *cannot* trust ANY ‘deal’ one might make with, or accept from, a Mohammedan individual or entity. Period. Don’t even bother to try. Not worth it. Always a bad idea.
Trump needs to know that America has to both *be* AND ‘project’ “the strong horse”; that this will ultimately cause Mohammedans to retreat.
All American jihadwatchers need to write to him, or Tweet him, briefly, but repeatedly. *The* message to send is – “Got Muslims? Got Jihad”. Another good slogan? – “Stop the Jizya, Stop the Tribute”. Because ANY monies or other goods given by the USA to mohammedan entities *are* viewed as either jizya or tribute. Money the USA *doesn’t* pour into bottomless muslim maws in a *futile* attempt to ‘buy off’ terrorism or to ‘buy’ unwinnable ‘hearts and minds”, would be MUCH BETTER reinvested in 1/ strengthening American self-defence capability and 2/ helping to grow American infrastructure and businesses. Ten thousand dollars invested in an Elon Musk project will benefit America far more than ten *million* dollars paid to horrible Islamic Pakistan.
Remind Trump about that embassy, too, that needs to move from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Because, as a ‘throwing down of the gauntlet’ to the Ummah, that move is just as necessary as the so-called “Muslim ban”… which ought to be extended – and strengthened – as regards country by country, over time, till ALL the sinister OIC Muslim-majority nations are covered by it.
As for the rest of us – outside of the USA – especially those of us in countries historically *allied* with the USA; *our* business is to let *our* heads of state know that *we* would like a ‘Muslim ban’… a much tougher and more wide-reaching one that Trump’s preliminary effort! And we can write to the US President to congratulate him on achieving office and to urge him to resist the Jihad… and … might as well be hung for a sheep, as for a lamb… to find ways of extending and strengthening the ‘Muslim ban’. We too can make the point – ‘Got Muslms? Got Jihad” – and point out that if the US had not allowed Muslims to enter – as migrants *or* as tourists or students or ‘refugees’ – the ideologically-driven, Islamically-motivated mass murders of 9/11, and of San Bernardino and Orlando and Fort Hood – would NOT have happened.
Let him know that there are people in *other* countries who do NOT hate him. We might not agree with all his policy positions or methods; but what matters above ALL else, is that there should be major pushback against the Ummah or Mohammedan Mob. Everything else is moot. Pushing back against Jihad – and putting up rock-solid defences, including well-fortified and well-policed national borders – is necessary if any free people, anywhere, are to *survive*.
dumbledoresarmy says
Re Jerusalem and the American embassy, the slogan should be “THIS YEAR in Jerusalem”. And it must be done suddenly and with despatch, without *any* apologies or explanations. Make it a fait accompli and once it is done, then proceed with normal diplomatic business, as if nothing untoward has happened; IGNORE the tantrums from the OIC and its dhimmi fellow-travellers.
I can think of another ‘shot across the bows’ that the US President could deliver.
He could invite, to dinner at the White House, a selection of the most prominent critics of and apostates from Islam; and this dinner could be publicised. To make it absolutely clear that the USA welcomes and will protect the *defectors* from the Camp of Islam.
Guest list? For the apostates: Nonie Darwish, Wafa Sultan, the intrepid artist Bosch Fawstin, little Rifqa Bary, and Ayaan Hirsi Ali; invitations (with their travel expenses to be covered, and security detail provided, should they accept the invitation) could be issued also to such as Ibn Warraq, Mark Gabriel, Ali Sina, Magdi Cristiano Allam, and Sam Solomon, all of whom reside outside of the USA. Those who have written books could be invited to place copies of their books in the White House library – I assume it has one – for the edification of future Presidents.
For the critics and ‘blasphemers’? – at the very least, Brigitte Gabriel, Robert Spencer, Pam Geller, and Australia’s Mark Durie. Kurt Westergaard, he who created the “Mohammed Turbanbomb” cartoon; Lars Hedegaard.
The aim would be to clearly establish – by publicly affirming in the most public manner possible (a dinner at the Whtie House, with the President) a representative group of those who have most famously apostasised from Islam and those who have famously ‘blasphemed’ against Islam – that America is steadfastly opposed to the ‘blasphemy law’ of Islam and the ‘apostasy law’ of Islam.
Imagine Ms Ali being invited to preside at a private family viewing, at the White House, of her and the late Theo Van Gogh’s film about Islamic misogyny “Submission”.
PS Given that the President has a Jewish son-in-law and convert-to-Judaism daughter, a White House seder is entirely appropriate.
BUT: jihadwatchers should communicate with him, NOW, to insist that an ‘Iftar’ would be absolutely inappropriate and should NOT be done. END *that* pernicious ‘tradition’ – so very recently and dangerously adopted – NOW. NO President of the USA should have any truck with an “Iftar”.
NO ‘Iftar’. NO White House accommodation or endorsement of ‘Ramadan’, the “Month of Jihad”, should happen on Trump’s watch.
dumbledoresarmy says
As far as I am concerned, joining with Mohammedans to do ‘Iftar’ or any other of their ‘feasts’ or ‘fasts’, is no different from joining with Neonazis to celebrate ‘Hitler’s Birthday’.
somehistory says
Is his new plan designed to stop all immigration for a time…so he can’t be criticized for *targeting* a certain group? They would still be stopped from coming.

Trump is definitely trying to do the right thing but he will have a next to impossible job to do because the powerful globalist establishment elites will NOT allow him to implement his policies and he will very likely fail. Please watch the video clip below as Dennis Kucinich warns America to “wake up” to the fact that the US deep state is pushing for war with Russia. Start the video from 3:45 mark:
gravenimage says
You may not know much about American politics, but Dennis Kucinich has always stood against any attempts at defending against Jihad. He voted against the USA PATRIOT Act and was one of just six who voted against the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Act.
He has pushed for cozying up to Iran and was a supporter of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s calling for Israel to be wiped off the map, and he voted against Israel’s right to defend herself against Hamas rockets. He also signed a letter in support of dictator Hugo Chavez in Venezuela.
He was the only Congressional Representative to vote against the “9/11 Commemoration” resolution.
Believing that Kucinich is a Trump supporter–or even any sort of anti-Jihadist–is quite mistaken.

Gravenimage, now Russia has a big shock after finding out that Trump is not going to lift up the justly laid sanctions on Russia. All they want is to remove sanctions and again sweam in money. Nothing else. Currently Russian TV propaganda takes the stance that “Trump is for Russia, but people around him press on him”. But very soon they will have to face the truth… and declare Trump their enemy # 1, like Obama was.
Therefore, do not be surprised of rus trolls’ nonsense.

Kucinish might had a change of heart because what he says in the video above is very factual and very truthful indeed!
gravenimage says
Christianblood, I doubt that Kucinich is changing his views. Just the opposite, really–he is only pro-Russian now because of Russia’s Soviet Communist past. He has, in fact, been quite explicit about this.
vladkoval says
Russia blogger and comic Ilya Madison. His joke: ” I came to the toilet with Quran, then I saw that toilet paper has run out, and I didn’t know what to do. I was desperate. Then I came out from the toilet and told my girlfriend: Look, that was terrible, I had to wipe my ass with my sock, thanks god Quran is OK (and he shows the sock and puts it in the Quran)/
Now Ilya is threatened by muslims in Russia, authorities opened case against him for extremism, and he had to flee from Pakistan.. oh sorry, from Russia…(sarcasm)
vladkoval says
I hope he will get asylum somwhere in the “decayed pro-muslim West”, otherwise muslims in the Bastion of Christianity kill him, or Putin throws him in prison for many years.
gravenimage says
So sorry to hear this–anyone who jokes about Islam is threatened.
frederick King says
Thank you President Trump. I know you will do everything in your power to protect Americans from Islamic terror, and criminal illegal aliens. People say you’re crazy and loud. You’re not crazy, and loud is your style. I grew up in the deep south, and loud is just that. It gets the attention of your subject.
Please keep up the good work, and d some bullet-proof executive orders. This massive migration from the jihad belt must stop. Illegal immigration is costing Americans over 110 billion dollars a year. I’d rather spend this money on a couple of Carrier Battle groups, armed with very long ranged cruise missiles. Mexico must pay a very steep price for it’s human trafficking industry. Make them pay dearly, and they government there will put a stop to this. We can cotract with other countries for agricultural work.
Please put our military on the border until something else effective is in place. Give our troops the authority to detain, arrest , and fast track all illegals back across the border to Mexico. Not just Mexicans, but all who enter from there. Men , women, and children. Track down the adults that send for these children. Put them in jail for child endangerment, then deport them. This behavior is abuse of our system, and was encouraged by Hussein Obama, and wanna be hillary.
Thank you again.

you wrote that *here*. Yes, I am sure Mr Trump has a staffer reading here. I suspect that, in the past, he himself has ‘lurked’ here, from time to time.
But: I *hope* that you have also sent a *letter*, on paper, printed out nicely, but signed with your own hand, and in an envelope and stamped, to President Donald Trump, at the White House. Saying in that letter what you have just said here.
He needs to hear from his supporters. Sure he has a big ego. But humans are humans and he is copping a barrage of negativity right now.
Send him your letter. (Perhaps try to make it shorter).
Wait a week or so, and then send another. Maybe just a postcard saying, “Right on! Stop the Muslims from coming in. Got Muslims? Got Jihad. No Muslims? – no 9/11, no San Bernardino masacre, no Orlando massacre, no Fort Hood massacre.”
Anne Smith says
God protect Mr Trump, his courage in defining the problems we all face is inspiring.
Millions of us support him, pray he keeps going.
dumbledoresarmy says
Send President Trump a postcard, with a brief message of support. (I assume you are American?).
I am sure that right now a *deluge* of hate mail is flooding in to the White House.
The thing to do is to *drown* it with Love Mail.

Kremlin Tells Media to Cut Back on Fawning Trump Coverage, Sources Say
Richard Paulsen says
Journalists understanding things up and down. Sounding as if the US President is a Mullah and Mullahs the President of U.S.A.
It is very strange to listen to these journalists. Lots of work to do before things will change.
Jerry says
Trump was only half right when he said the press was dishonest, they’re also hateful and extremely biased. I can’t believe the hatred out there for this well intentioned man. Obama get’s the Nobel Prize for being black, Trump get’s called a racist for trying to protect our people and make America great again. Compare what Trump said here to his predecessors:
President Trump:“I think Islam hates us … There’s a tremendous hatred.”
Obama: “We are not at war with Islam. We are at war with people who have perverted Islam.” Muhammad and the “religion” he invented teaches murder, bigotry, hatred, child abuse, and misogyny. Terrorists and their more moderate followers don’t pervert islam, they emulate it.
Bush “…our war is not against Islam, or against faith practiced by the Muslim people. Our war is a war against evil,” Islam has incited more bloodshed than any other faith-based ideology in history, their own god’s deeds and ambitions were genocidal and demonic. Even if muslims had never terrorized for allah we are still justified in our condemnation of islam. Because the horrific violence and hatred it teaches could never be worth the tiny bit of good it contains. Islamic “Jihad” is not about exercise or spiritual growth, it’s what’s muslims do every day when they murder, rape, and destroy while screaming to their god. That’s why islam is evil Mr. Bush, because it teaches JIHAD and jihad is evil.
I’m supporting Trump because he’s not a coward for islam, or a liar, or an appeaser. Trump may be uncouth at times, but I can live with that if it comes with life-saving honesty and truth. If I honestly reach a point where I think our new, well intentioned president is not good for us I’m not above changing my mind. But right now he seems to be off to a good start. He’s only doing what he said he would do, the of the people who got him elected. Trump is proud of America and wants to protect us, and he’s reviled for it. I think a big part of making America great again will be overcoming the senseless hatred these people have for our country.
Jerry says
Correction: “the of the people” should be “the will of the people.”
dumbledoresarmy says
Jerry: Make sure you write to your President and tell him exactly what you just said, here.
And… tell him that when he said, “I think Islam hates us … There’s a tremendous hatred.”, that he was RIGHT, right on the money, totally accurate, totally telling the truth.
They – Muslims, common or garden orthodox Muslims – ARE taught to hate. Tell him to talk to Wafa Sultan, apostate from Islam. I think he’d like her toughness, her passion, her plain speaking… she called her book about Islam, “A God Who Hates”.
Tell him to talk to Nonie Darwish. She, too, could inform him just how much Muslims are taught to hate, hate, HATE all Infidels, qua Infidels. To hate them, to despise them, and to do them down, in every imaginable way. She and Wafa could point him to the myriad verses, in the Quran and the Hadiths, that enjoin hatred… and not just hatred but aggression, whether overt or covert.
Warn him that Muslims, educated smooth suave besuited seemingly westernised Muslims – can often be *dissembling* a truly terrifying hatred. That he, being an Infidel, should not and must not trust *any* declared Muslim, no matter how ‘nice’ such a Muslim may seem and no matter how attractive some proffered ‘deal’ may appear. There is ALWAYS the possibility of a knife in the back ..or the guts.
dumbledoresarmy says
The other person he should talk to, if he hasn’t already, is Brigitte Gabriel, founder of ACT for America… which she founded because she didn’t want America to end up as her previously-Christian-ruled homeland, Lebanon, has finished up… a chaotic ruined-by-Islam land, getting worse by the minute. She called *her* book about Islam, and the Islamisation of Lebanon, “Because They Hate”. She too describes the hatred that orthodox Muslims harbour toward all kuffar qua kuffar.
Jerry says
I love Brigitte. I read her book, Because They Hate, about six years ago. I visit her You Tube channel often and have given money to the cause. You have good taste in people. Keep fighting.
kessler says
Well done Trump for sticking to your guns, but you are missing too many opportunities and keep shooting yourself in the foot.
Here is an example: https://twitter.com/qz/status/832352520139845638
Rather than being “insulted” why didn’t he just start out by condemning anti-semitism and showing concern for the rise in anti-semitism? He immediately assumes that the reporter is accusing him of being an anti-semite/racist and a cause for the rise in anti-semitic crime. He should have used this as an opportunity to cement his support for the Jewish community/Israel and his commitment to stamp out the rise in anti-semitism. He should have pointed out that hatred towards Jews are more prominent amongst his opponents than his supporters and he will do everything in his power to fight this hatred.
I hope his oratory skills will improve – it’s a shame he doesn’t have the ability to keep calm and deliver a smart, stinging response like people such a Mr. Spencer. His presidency is a golden opportunity, but right now I find it increasingly hard to defend him. There is so much inconsistency and he rarely delivers a direct, smart, well-considered response.
I wish him all the best
Jerry says
I have to concur with your take on things. I know Trump’s heart is in the right place, but I cringe at every missed opportunity. I’m not saying I could do better, but I know many others could, your choice of Spencer is a good example. Trump has a huge platform to discuss the important issues, passionately, and with moral justification. So why is he wasting so much time needling Hillary and the press when there are so many good points to be made on important matters? Too often he operates like a smart conclusion without no supporting argument. And this just leaves room for his critics to distort his good intentions into all kinds of bad things. The Jewish question you pointed out is a good example of this, Trump had a perfect opportunity to employ a jujutsu form of defense where one uses the attacker’s own energy against them. He could have slaughtered any bad motives in that reporter’s question by simply speaking his best love and defense of the Jewish people. Instead He blew it with, “I am the least antisemitic person that you’ve ever seen.” Which is kinda like saying, I don’t hate Jews nearly as much as those other bigots. I’m not saying he meant it that way, but I know there are better ways to say it. So yeah, I’m for Trump, but I’m also for him getting better at his job.
gravenimage says
Agreed.
dumbledoresarmy says
Write to him. Tell him what you just said here, about missed opportunities.
And.. if he wants to demonstrate, beyond all doubt, that he is NOT a Jewhater, then the best way he can do that, is to move that American embassy, PRONTO, from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem… and make sure that ALL local employees hired by that embassy, are Israeli Jews, NOT Muslim Arabs.
Jerry says
I have already sent letters to Trump, but not about this. Maybe I will.
Walter Sieruk says
That all the jihadists ,anarchists, socialists and Marxists hate President Trump with a passion does reflect that Donald Trumps must be a man who is an all American patriot . By the reason that a person can see the real character of a man not only by who his friends are but also who his enemies are. For example, on January 20 on television evening news I saw one group of anti-Trump protesters marching on the street in Washington DC. They were carrying and holding along banner which had Communist Hammer and Sickle on it. These further shows just how ignorant and outdated many of those anti-Trump people are.
For Karl Marx with his COMMUNIST MANIFESTO an long with his three volume THE CAPITAL in which he explained his economic political/philosophical scheme for a “classless and stateless society “ in which “Everyone works according his ability and receives according to his needs.’’ has many times over by refuted and discredited by genuine economists, sociologists and historians. These scholars have thoroughly exposes the many economic fallacies and flaws of Marxism way before the collapse of Communism in Russia and the Eastern bloc nations. In 1992. Therefore even the recent history of the early 1990’s disproves Marxism as extremely erroneous. So it’s Adam Smith with his THE WEALTH OF NATIONS that is valid and in contrast Karl Marx with his written nonsensical a full of folly and invalid.
So in conclusion this exposes how those anti-Trump protesters, just described above , with their Communist pipe -dreams [Marxist fantasy] are people who don’t even have a good grip of the reality of things.
gravenimage says
Yes, Walter–you can tell a lot about a man by seeing who his enemies are.
Florida Jim says
Trump is a man among children fighting to protect America from what is happening in Canada and 90% of the world the death of freedom and political correctness choking them like anaconda slowly but eventually dead.All Democrats and many Republican wimps whom we should have fired will bring America down unless Mr. trump stands firm. McDonnell, Ryan, McCain, Graham whom does he have to help, they are not men at all.
common sense says
Trump needs to keep mentioning Hillary Clinton’s involvement with selling off 20% of our Uranium to Russia which is now going to Iran. 2 mil went to the foundation from Russia and Billy was paid 500k for a speech at the same time as the deal.
That’s actual news, keep hammering it, too much defensive posturing gets in the way. He has all the fire power he could ever want to bring them down.
And this is common knowledge as well or should be, why should Hunter Biden get the benefit of the doubt for playing it straight when Tillerson is constantly accussed of setting up Exxon with russian oil interests/ business when its obviuos that Hillary was all about quid pro quo and pay for play?
I cite abc so the trolls will know its actual fact. I constantly hammer the iran deal and this plus jihad on America to my clueless libtardian Californians.

Who is defending Sweden? Swedes do not. New mosque on its way. Second or third last year. This one in one of the most religiously and historically town with the most prestigious Church in the country and an old prestigious University.
Terrible. Pure madness. Nothing stops. Authoritories allowing all the time all over the country. Some 12% muslims now. Some estimating there will be some 70% in 2050.
Unconstrained growth.

Richard:
how are the Swedish Democrats going?
By the way – re mosques – have you ever heard of a man in the UK called Gavin Boby? He created a group called “The Law and Freedom Foundation”. One of the main things they do is *oppose the building of mosques*. You might like to try googling him, and see how he does it.
It was *his* organisation that also sponsored the creation of a *brilliant* and hard-hitting report called “Easy Meat” that discussed the official coverup of the massive Muslim sexploitation of infidel girls, mostly underaged, in the UK… and demonstrated the continuity between the Muslim sex gangs, and the misogyny of Islamic doctrine.
Maybe Sweden needs an equivalent of the “Law and Freedom Foundation”. Surely you are not the only person who is ‘awake’. Even twenty or thirty of you might be enough to make a beginning, perhaps in conjunction with the Swedish Democrats.
Start somewhere. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

I was afraid he would back down because of all the leftist hatred. Now I know better. He was serious about being a good president, I was right to vote for him.

Pray for him.
Pray like blazes.
pray for his advisers, too; pray for courage and wisdom, and for physical and spiritual protection.
*The* issue above all others is self-defence against Jihad.
