The FBI is Combing Through Illegally-Gathered Private Data to Build Cases Against Trump Supporters

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is combing through the data of Americans gathered illegally by the National Security Agency (NSA) to build cases against Trump supporters and other so-called right-wing extremists.

A heavily-redacted report has been declassified from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) secret court showing that the FBI received private information about right-wing individuals in September 2019. This occurred as the FBI was ignoring pressing ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter terror threats while former President Donald Trump was still in the White House.

An FBI spokesman released a statement justifying the illicit privacy violations against the 4th Amendment rights of citizens, saying that the “query incidents referenced in this report occurred prior to implementation of the FBI’s system changes and training.”

“The FBI is dedicated to full adherence with FISA’s requirements and to keeping the American people safe from national security threats,” a senior FBI official said.

The FBI is taking this information without a warrant, and the mostly-peaceful protest at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 – falsely called an insurrection or a coup by the fake news media – has given them the perfect excuse to justify this unconscionable power grab.

Big League Politics has reported on how the political establishment is calling for the war on terror to be brought to the homeland in the response to Jan. 6:

“Since the Jan. 6 mostly peaceful protest on the U.S. Capitol, many so-called conservatives have demonstrated their hatred of Trump and shown they had been working to subvert his America First agenda all along.

Arguably the worst examples of this establishment trend come from the Washington Examiner, a media outlet that is bankrolled by a Trump-averse globalist billionaire. The ostensibly conservative outlet has been echoing Democrat talking points since Jan. 6, blaming President Trump for allegedly inciting the violence and promoting impeachment as a legal and viable option.

In a recent article, the publication took it a step further by advocating for an abolition of the U.S. Constitution for the Biden administration to wage the war on terror in the homeland against Trump supporters.

Low Standards For Minority Students Are Racist And Degrade Education

Federalist Publisher Ben Domenech complained the Virginia Department of Education’s consideration of a plan to eliminate accelerated math classes in the name of equity is racist and will only degrade American education.

“When you look at this trend towards the idea that getting the right answer, or expecting the right answer from minority students is in some way an indication of white supremacy, as if two plus two equals four is some kind of racist statement, is absolutely absurd,” Domenech said. “It will ultimately lead to the degradation of American education if we allow this idea to take hold.”

The Virginia Education Department is currently deciding whether to do away with advanced-level courses and “consolidating the standard and advanced studies diploma,” in line with recommendations from those who demand racial equity among student achievement with lower standards.

“We want more minority Americans to be able to access STEM learning, to be able to go and work for NASA,” Domenech said. “I want to see more of...

USA Today stealth edited Stacey Abrams op-ed in support of Georgia boycott and Politifact used it to defend her from critics

USA Today admitted that they allowed an edit to an op-ed written by Stacey Abrams be made without citing the change, and that op-ed was erroneously used by Politifact to defend her from her critics.

The piece was published at USA Today on March 31, just days before Major League Baseball pulled their game from Atlanta, Georgia, over exaggerated accusations against the state's new election reforms.

In it, Abrams advocated for boycotts to pressure politicians to cave to demands from Democrats. But in a later version of the op-ed, it was edited in order to water down her support for the use of boycotts against Georgia.

That revised op-ed was then cited by Politifact to defend Abrams from critics blaming her for the economic damage to the state from the boycott.

Republican strategist Matt Whitlock documented the dishonest shenanigans on Twitter.

Politifact later added an editor's note and added a minor clarification that the op-ed had been changed from its previous version.

"We updated this article after initial publication to clarify the publication dates of Abrams' USA Today op-ed," they added.

The original version of the op-ed penned by Abrams was far more supportive of the boycott:

"Events hosted by major league baseball, world class soccer, college sports and dozens of Hollywood films hang in the balance. At the same time, activists urge Georgians to swear off of hometown products to express our outrage. Until we hear clear, unequivocal statements that show Georgia-based companies get what's at stake, I can't argue with an individual's choice to opt for their competition."

While the revised version makes it sound as if Abrams preferred other protests against the law:

"Instead of a boycott, I strongly urge other events and productions to do business in Georgia and speak out against our law and similar proposals in other states."

Politifact faced similar criticism over its biased rating against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and his statements about the court-packing schemes of...

An estimation of the number of illegal aliens living in the United States is excluded from early data released this week by the U.S. Census Bureau thanks to executive orders from President Joe Biden.

Census Bureau officials released population totals this week, revealing that the U.S. population stands at about 331,449,281 residents, adding more than 22,700,000 residents since 2010. Still unknown is how many of those nearly 331.5 million U.S. residents are illegal aliens.

In March 2018, former President Trump’s administration announced that it would seek to put the American citizenship question back on the Census to determine how many citizens, legal immigrants, and illegal aliens reside in the U.S.

Then, in June 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the administration could put the American citizenship question on the Census. But the Court sent the case back to a lower court that did not hold a hearing before the cutoff for the printing of the 2020 Census forms.

Likewise, Biden signed an executive order that stopped the Census Bureau’s collection of citizenship data that would have helped determine the illegal alien population living in the U.S., as well as the citizen population.

A report in early January, before Biden took office, revealed that the Census Bureau had already stopped attempting to tally the illegal alien population in each state and U.S. territory.

Now, Americans are left with only a handful of illegal alien population estimates from organizations and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) — all of which differ.

The latest Pew Research Center estimate, based on 2017 data, states that about 10.5 million illegal aliens live in the U.S. Data from DHS, as of January 2018, states that the illegal alien population stands at about 11.4 million.

Those tabulations are far off from other estimates. In 2018, for example, Yale University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers estimated that there were about 22 million illegal aliens living in the U.S. The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), meanwhile, estimated this year that the illegal alien population is at...
