WOW! Trump Just Thumped All Georgia Democrat Primary Candidates COMBINED

The far-left media watched this happen and then swiftly stuffed it away into their ever-growing “ignore it” hole.

Normally, an incumbent president has far less voter enthusiasm in a primary like this and yet, this year, President Trump’s support exceeded that of all of the other Democrat primary candidates combined.

For some historical perspective, consider this – in 2012 when Barack Obama was running for reelection he garnered less than 200,000 votes in the Georgia presidential primary while the opposing party candidates collectively garnered over 4x that amount.

Compare that to President Trump. Same state, same reelection goal, yet Trump managed to garner MORE votes than all the Democrat candidates and more than DOUBLE what Obama did in 2012. Such an accomplishment is an incredibly rare thing in presidential politics yet here we are. The ongoing enthusiasm for President Trump is, if anything, growing at a rate not seen since the days of Ronald Reagan.

The far-left media knows this, they fear it, and are doing all they can to lower the levels of enthusiasm among Trump supporters before the November election. Failing to do so will likely result in an impressive reelection victory for...

Obamagate redefined opposition to Islamic terrorism as a national security threat.

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.

We know when Obamagate ended, but we don’t know when the policy of spying on Americans began. The tangled roots of the domestic surveillance of political opponents by the NSA predate the alarmism about Russia. Tracing them back into the fetid swamp takes us not toward Moscow, but to Tehran.

The first public revelation that the White House was spying on high level members of the political opposition came in 2015. Members of Congress had been eavesdropped on as part of an operation to sabotage Prime Minister Netanyahu’s campaign against the Iran Deal. The Israeli leader and his entire country had earlier been targeted by a massive spy campaign to stop Israel from taking out Iran’s nukes.

But the new wave of surveillance was no longer just against a potential Israeli attack on Iran, but was part of a political campaign to win the domestic argument to aid Iran and legalize its nuclear program.

The Wall Street Journal reported that by 2013, surveillance of Netanyahu was focused on protecting the Iran nuclear negotiations. Netanyahu’s invitation to address Congress caught the White House by surprise and the surveillance was not only directed at Israelis or even pro-Israel Americans, but members of Congress who were skeptical that the Islamic terror regime would ever scuttle its nukes.

The Iran Deal ushered in a surveillance shift from monitoring the former allies that Obama wanted to toss overboard, to monitoring Americans who were friendly to those governments, and then leading members of the political opposition, and finally members of an incoming administration. Obama and his associates had redefined national security as the pursuit of his dangerous foreign policy, and the new national security threats were administration critics who were surveilled in order to entrap them.

Surveillance had morphed from spying on Obama’s political opponents to conspiring to lock them up.

General Flynn had been a key opponent of the Iran policy, as detailed by Lee Smith in How Russiagate Began With Obama’s Iran Deal Domestic Spying Campaign. Flynn’s arrival not only threatened the Iran Deal, but the politicized intelligence agencies that had been covering for Iran even during the Bush days. Beyond protecting the Iran Deal and Obama’s legacy, the fake intelligence machine was...
