The Merkel Debacle...
Merkel support rating drops sharply after wave of attacks – poll
The number of Germans supporting Chancellor Angela Merkel and her policies is growing smaller by the day, according to a new survey conducted in the wake of the series of attacks that shocked Germany in July.
Just under half – 47 percent – of Germans surveyed rated Merkel’s work as satisfactory by the end of July, down 12 percentage points on the June figure of 59 percent, according to DeutschlandTrend (Germany Trend), a representative survey by the polling institute Infratest dimap conducted on behalf of German broadcaster ARD.
The pollster surveyed 1,003 German citizens of voting-age on August 1-2. Two-thirds of respondents said they disagreed with Merkel’s asylum policies ‘in general,’ as the poll did not allow for specific reasons to be given. Around a third – 34 percent – claimed the refugee crisis was being handled properly, the lowest level of support for Merkel’s open-door policy since the issue appeared in polls almost a year ago.
The survey was conducted after five assaults shocked Germany in just over a week in July. Three were committed by asylum seekers, with two of those being investigated for links to Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL).

Julian Assange: WikiLeaks Emails Will Prove Hillary Armed ISIS In Syria
Speaking on Democracy Now, Assange said:
So, those Hillary Clinton emails, they connect together with the cables that we have published of Hillary Clinton, creating a rich picture of how Hillary Clinton performs in office, but, more broadly, how the U.S. Department of State operates. So, for example, the disastrous, absolutely disastrous intervention in Libya, the destruction of the Gaddafi government, which led to the occupation of ISIS of large segments of that country, weapons flows going over to Syria, being pushed by Hillary Clinton, into jihadists within Syria, including ISIS, that’s there in those emails. There’s more than 1,700 emails in Hillary Clinton’s collection, that we have released, just about Libya alone.
The new information, if true, would seemingly contradict statements Hillary Clinton made to Kentucky Senator Rand Paul in 2013, in which the Secretary of State denied, under oath, any knowledge of weapons being run into Syria.
Here's a transcript of the exchange:
Iran Owes Victims of Its Terror $43 Billion. WHY ARE WE PAYING THEM BILLIONS AND PAYING THEM RANSOM MONEY?
Many of these dollars will line the pockets of Iran’s radical Revolutionary Guard Corps. The IRGC, through its paramilitary Quds Force, has funded some of the world’s most violent Islamic terrorist groups and has left in its wake decades of bombings, hijackings, murders and kidnappings.
Hundreds of Americans are among Iran’s victims. Courts have found Iran complicit in some of the most horrific acts of terror in American history, including the 1983 bombing of the Marine barracks in Beirut, the Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, and the 9/11 attacks.
Federal law allows the victims of state-sponsored terrorism to bring suit against the nations responsible. To date, American courts have awarded some$43.5 billion in damages to Iran’s victims and their families, all of which has gone unpaid.
In other words, Iranian hardliners will soon get a multi-billion dollar payday — while Americans who suffered at the hands of Iran and its terrorist allies still await compensation for the damages incurred.
That’s why I’ve introduced the Justice for Victims of Iranian Terrorism Act.The legislation requires the Obama Administration to certify that Iran has paid every penny it owes its victims before it receives any sanctions relief.
Every American victimized by Iran and its agents has a story to tell. Many of them, or their families, have successfully brought suit in federal court and been awarded damages.
Below are just some of the victims that have been awarded judgments by U.S. courts:
Wall Porn: The Great Wall of Gorgan - 5th century A.D.
Also known as the “Red Snake” for its distinctive red-colored bricks, the “Great Wall of Gorgon” was a 121-mile rampart that extended from the southern coast of the Caspian Sea to the Elburz Mountains in what is now Iran.
It was once thought to have been the work of Alexander the Great—it was even known as “Alexander’s Barrier”—but more recent research suggests it was built by the Sasanian Persians sometime around the 5th century A.D.
When completed, it was one of the longest walls of antiquity and boasted more than 30 forts, a garrison of 30,000 troops and a network of canals that acted as both a water supply system and a defensive moat. Surprisingly little is known about the wall’s history, but most scholars believe the Persians used it to guard against the Hephthalite Huns and other enemies to the north.
Sliming Trump
Trump being silly and playful in front of TV cameras or utilizing his sense of humor is cast as evidence of a disordered, antisocial mind. The media is focusing on minor benign details and marketing them as the evil deeds of an evil man.
Preventing Trump from communicating effectively with Americans didn’t work so well during the primaries. That was when student radicals, union thugs, Democrat allies in Black Lives Matter, and the remnants of Occupy Wall Street were disrupting Trump rallies and intimidating would-be rally attendees by beating the New Yorker’s supporters up in broad daylight.
The leftist narrative being deployed against Trump is based on lies, half-truths, and nothing-burgers
This was always less an effort to counter Trump or challenge his policy platform, than a fascistic push to simply suppress his message. With Trump, the...
REPORT: Trump buys 400 pizzas for Jacksonville police department
Jacksonville, Florida police officer John Hannaford told a story this week that the mainstream media seems to preoccupied to tell: Donald Trump bought some 400 pizza for the department prior to his visit to the city.
“So yesterday I was working an offduty job and this message came across that 43 pizzas had been delivered to our zone’s substation,” Hannaford writes.
“I thought that was pretty massive of someone to purchase 43 pizzas for the police. It’s not unusual for the community to bring food by the substation and to be honest I think the city for the most part supports it’s police. But that’s a lot of pizza.
“So today I’m gassing up at the station downtown after the Trump rally and a sgt. pulls in to get gas also. We started talking about the crowd and he asked if I heard about the pizza.
“I said yes 43 of them. He said no there were at least that many delivered to all 6 zones and more to the corrections guys,” Hannaford writes.“You won’t hear this from any news channel but Trump bought pizza for the entire department. Easily 400 pizzas.
“He may say what ever comes to mind at times but there is no doubt that he loves this country and the people,” according to the officer.
An estimated 16,000 people turned out for Trump’s Jacksonville rally on ...
