Wall Street Journal calls for investigation into the FBI For wiretapping, lying and meddling in the 2016 election...

Congress needs to learn how the FBI meddled in the 2016 campaign.

When Donald Trump claimed in March that he’d had his “wires tapped” prior to the election, the press and Obama officials dismissed the accusation as a fantasy. We were among the skeptics, but with former director James Comey’s politicized FBI the story is getting more complicated.

CNN reported Monday that the FBI obtained a warrant last year to eavesdrop on Paul Manafort, Mr. Trump’s campaign manager from May to August in 2016. The story claims the FBI first wiretapped Mr. Manafort in 2014 while investigating his work as a lobbyist for Ukraine’s ruling party. That warrant lapsed, but the FBI convinced the court that administers the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) to issue a second order as part of its probe into Russian meddling in the election.

Guess who has lived in a condo in Trump Tower since 2006? Paul Manafort.

The story suggests the monitoring started in the summer or fall, and extended into early this year.

While Mr. Manafort resigned from the campaign in August, he continued to speak with Candidate Trump.

It is thus highly likely that the FBI was listening to the political and election-related conversations of a leading contender for the White House.

That’s extraordinary - and worrisome.

Mr. Comey told Congress in late March that he “had no information that supports those [Trump] tweets.”

Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper was even more specific that “there was no such wiretap activity mounted against—the President-elect at the time, or as a candidate, or against his campaign.”

He denied that any such FISA order existed.

Were they lying?

The warrant’s timing may also shed light on the FBI’s relationship to the infamous “ Steele dossier.” That widely discredited dossier claiming ties between Russians and the Trump campaign was commissioned by left-leaning research firm Fusion GPS and developed by former British spy Christopher Steele—who relied on Russian sources. But the Washington Post and others have reported that Mr. Steele was familiar to the FBI, had reached out to the agency about his work, and had even...

Destroying America's Youth: ILLEGAL ALIEN BUSTED WITH $7 MILLION WORTH OF HEROIN IN NORTH CAROLINA

MOUNT OLIVE, NC (WRAL) – Wayne County authorities on Monday arrested a man and seized roughly 10 pounds of heroin from him worth about $7 million.

The Wayne County Sheriff’s Office said authorities found the drugs after executing a search warrant at 4592 Emmaus Church Road in Mount Olive. Once broken down and packaged, the “pure heroin” would have produced 250,000 individual dosage units.

SEXUAL REVOLUTIONARIES AND CULTURAL MARXISTS INFILTRATING OUR SCHOOLS

“Fallacies do not cease to be fallacies because they become fashions.”—G.K. Chesterson

Concerned parents of school-aged children know that sexual revolutionaries and cultural Marxists are destroying our public schools and universities. But Charter schools were thought to be safe from these dark ideological radicals.

Sexual revolutionaries and cultural Marxists believe that there are no differences between men and women, and that “male” and “female” are merely social constructs.

After Monday’s packed board meeting at Rocklin Academy Charter School, it appears these radicals have infiltrated even the charter schools.

More than 500 parents and LGBTQIA activists packed the Rocklin Academy Charter School board meeting Monday. Parents were there to register their disgust and displeasure with the school over its lack of policy surrounding discussions about gender identity… in a kindergarten class. Some are asking “How young is too young to introduce a child to the concept of gender identity?” But more parents are saying this discussion doesn’t belong in school at all.

The only concession to parents by the school board was to agree to “endeavor” to notify parents about such controversial topics. Perhaps that is why “40 families and 71 children have already left the school,” a parent who wished to remain anonymous reported. “That number is changing every hour.”

“Jazz” is a Not a Girl

Recently a Rocklin Academy kindergarten teacher read aloud to the class from a controversial book about a “transgender” child, and then assisted the child’s “transformation” from a boy to a girl in front of the class. Parents were outraged, and demanded an opt-out policy over discussions like this subject, and its place in the classroom.

Some parents asked the charter school to let them know ahead when controversial topics, like gender identity, would be discussed in class and allow their students to opt out.

The tail is wagging the dog here. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, “The estimated proportion of transgender individuals based on surveys that categorized transgender as gender identity was 0.39%, but they attribute that number to be heavily weighted to youth transgender persons. The estimated proportion of transgender adults based on surveys that categorized transgender as sexual orientation was 0.06%.

Yet in my last article, I wrote about a California bill, authored by avowed LGBTQIA leftist Sen. Scott Weiner (D-San Francisco), that would criminalize the ‘misgendering’ of...

Speaking at the United Nations on Tuesday, President Donald Trump delivered one of the most powerful speeches of his presidency thus far.

The speech was an emphatic rejection of President Barack Obama’s “leading from behind” mantra, giving an assertive defense of American leadership on the world stage. The president also delivered strong condemnations of an array of dictatorial regimes, including North Korea, Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba.

The speech could not have been more different in style and substance than Obama’s weak-kneed and deferential approach in past speeches to the U.N. Obama’s tenure as leader of the free world was marked by weakness, confusion, indecision, and at times outright appeasement of U.S. adversaries.

It was refreshing to hear a U.S. president who was not ashamed to proclaim the interests of his own country.

The U.N. General Assembly is traditionally a lion’s den for Republican U.S. presidents, but Trump showed no desire to temper his message before leaders from 193 countries, many of whom harbor a deep-seated antipathy for the United States.

Global leadership is not a popularity contest, and Trump showed little interest in winning applause from a General Assembly that had regularly regaled his predecessor with standing ovations.

This was a speech that was tough, uncompromising, and crystal clear in its messaging. The enemies of the United States will be left with no doubt that the United States will aggressively confront...
