Hungary: Jail time proposed for NGO’s aiding illegals

Legislation was submitted to the Hungarian parliament this week to ensure that illegal undocumented migrants will no longer be assisted by NGOs. Prime Minister Viktor Orban called the bill the "Stop Soros" initiative.

Earlier proposed legislation suggested levying a 25 percent tax on foreign contributions to NGOs, but the bill was later scrapped.

The latest addition to the “Stop Soros” package includes punishment of up to a year in prison for individuals or organisations that help migrants submit requests for asylum when they are not entitled to protection.

According to Euractiv those who help such illegals to gain residency in Hungary face jail time under legislation submitted to parliament on Tuesday.

An amendment to the constitution was proposed so no “alien population” may be settled in Hungary, rejecting European Union imposed quotas of migrants.

The new bill targets foreigners who sought to enter Hungary via a third country in which they were not directly exposed to persecution, which legally rules out asylum.

The text of the legislation on parliament’s website, states: “Those who provide financial means … or conduct this organisational activity (for illegal immigration) on a regular basis will be punishable with up to one year in prison.”

Many NGO and advocacy groups now complain they are the direct targets of this legislation. They claim that their work is “legal” and promote “democratic values”.

The Hungarian Helsinki Committee, said the bill would bring back “an era of fear, unheard of since the fall of communist dictatorship”. The draft legislation was also condemned by the UN refugee agency.

The UNHCR, in a statement from Geneva, called on Hungary to scrap the draft law, saying it would deprive asylum-seekers of “vital services” and encourage “rising xenophobic attitudes”.

While millions of mainly Muslim migrants have entered the EU since 2015, very few have sought to settle in Hungary. Official data show that in 2017 only a total of 1 291 migrants obtained some form of international protection in Hungary, mostly Afghans, Syrians and Iraqis.

Recent protests against the Hungarian president are driven by the same NGOs, as these are typically involved in subversive activities to install migrant-friendly regimes. Orban has likened the Soros-funded NGO’s to “the [Ottoman] sultan with his army, the Habsburg kaiser with his raiders and the Soviets with their comrades”.

On Tuesday, Soros attacked Orban in a speech at the European Council on Foreign Relations in London, saying that Orban’s “Christian Europe is challenging the values on...

Pedophile Who Threatened To Kill President Now Running For Congress Thanks To Terry McAuliffe

An admitted pedophile who served 16 months in federal prison for threatening to assassinate the president of the United States is now running for Congress thanks to former Democratic Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe.

Nathan Larson is an independent candidate in Virginia who admitted to HuffPost that he’s a pedophile who bragged in blog posts about raping his ex-wife and fantasized online about having sex with young children.

Larson is also a convicted felon who wouldn’t be eligible to run for office in Virginia had McAuliffe not restored Larson’s rights to vote and run for office in 2016.

Larson was sentenced to 16 months in prison in October 2009 for threatening to kill the president.

“I am writing to inform you that in the near future, I will kill the President of the United States of America,” Larson wrote in a Sept. 2008 email to the Secret Service. He then “laid out the reasons why he intended to kill the president and how he intended to carry out the assassination,” the Denver Post reported at the time of his conviction.

Anyone convicted of a felony in Virginia automatically loses the rights to vote and run for office. But McAuliffe restored those rights to tens of thousands of convicted felons in August 2016. And that included Larson, HuffPost first noted on Thursday.

Larson admitted to running a rape-obsessed pedophilia fantasy website, according to HuffPost. Larson claimed online that he had raped his ex-wife and “repeatedly expressed a desire to have sex with infants and children, including his own daughter,” HuffPost reported.

McAuliffe originally issued a blanket clemency order affecting 200,000 felons in April 2016. The state Supreme Court struck down McAuliffe’s order in July 2016, ruling that the governor’s blanket amnesty order exceeded his legal authority.

McAuliffe announced one month later that he was restoring the rights of 13,000 felons. The vice-chair of Virginia’s Board of Elections later told TheDCNF in Nov. 2016 that the true number of felons granted clemency was actually between 50,000 and 60,000. McAuliffe’s...

Facebook’s Own Shareholders Grill Zuckerberg over Conservative Censorship at Annual Meeting

Facebook may be one of the largest and most influential companies in the world, but things haven’t gone the social media giant’s way in recent months.

One can only imagine the kind of questions that came up during Facebook’s annual shareholder meeting on Thursday.

Just consider all the scandals the company has been involved in:

There were the allegations that Russian groups used the site to sow chaos in the minds of Americans as then-candidates Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton battled it out in the 2016 presidential election.

Then, just this past March, Facebook faced more questions, this time due to a scandal involving the leak of 87 million users’ data to Cambridge Analytica, a firm that had ties to the Trump presidential campaign.

Regarding the Cambridge Analytica scandal, Facebook and its CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, really had no choice but to admit that the private data of tens of millions of people had been leaked. Zuckerberg spent several days testifying before Congress and tried to assure lawmakers — and the world — that users could once again trust Facebook.

Another, lesser-known scandal — though it’s just as important — Facebook has gotten itself caught up in has to do with the social media company’s alleged censorship of conservative viewpoints.

For years, Facebook has faced allegations that it suppressed news from conservative outlets. Then, in mid-March, an analysis conducted by The Western Journal revealed that Facebook’s much-publicized demotion of publishers’ content in users’ news feeds negatively impacted conservative-leaning publishers significantly more than liberal-leaning outlets.

Needless to say, shareholders were going to have a lot of questions on Thursday for Zuckerberg and the company’s other higher-ups.

Though the meeting was closed to the public, a report from Business Insider suggests Zuckerberg did indeed face questions about a variety of issues, including his company’s alleged censorship of conservatives.

“Shareholders peppered Zuckerberg and his fellow executives and board members with questions about their ability and commitment to identify and delete fake accounts and abusive posts, the lack of diversity among Facebook’s executive ranks, and the alleged censorship of conservative voices on its social-networking service,” Business Insider reported.

It’s not clear exactly how Zuckerberg responded to these questions, particularly the ones about censorship of conservatives, but it seems that in a lot of ways, he...

Imran Awan Allegedly Tried ‘To Hide His Money’ While DOJ Negotiates With Him

Former Democratic IT staffer Imran Awan allegedly tried to “hide his money” recently.
Awan’s lawyer claims his client “does not have a pot to piss in.”
Awan is currently under FBI investigation over “unauthorized access” House servers and is indicted on charges of bank fraud.

Embattled former Democratic IT aide Imran Awan has as recently as weeks ago attempted to get someone to create an LLC to hide the ownership of real estate, and two people to buy a $40,000 gold bar for him, sources told The Daily Caller News Foundation. This while his lawyer has told The Daily Caller News Foundation that Imran “doesn’t have a pot to piss in.”

“He is totally unable to work and does not have a pot to piss in,” Imran attorney Chris Gowen wrote in a Feb. 27 email to TheDCNF.

Imran, who along with wife Hina Alvi worked as a server administrator for Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, has been the target of an FBI investigation since the House Inspector General alleged in September 2016 that he made “unauthorized access” to House servers and systematically falsified congressional financial records. Prosecutors have charged Imran and Alvi with bank fraud related to a House retirement account and a mortgage after the FBI said Imran impersonated his wife and initiated a $300,000 wire transfer to Pakistan, claiming it was for a funeral.

Investigators say the alleged congressional fraud may extend to millions of dollars. The FBI is in possession of hundreds of “Suspicious Activity Reports” detailing unusual transfers from Imran’s bank accounts, officials said.

“This is a national security issue… He should have been locked up in jail a long time ago with all his family members,” Rep. Steve King, an Iowa Republican who serves on the Committee on the Judiciary, told TheDCNF after it briefed him on the latest findings. “Anybody that’s hiding assets by buying gold bars and trying to get people to set up LLCs, who knows what else is going on. If he’s going to those lengths there are a lot of assets here,” he said. “How much of this do [prosecutors] know? They should.”

On May 3, prosecutors said they were “currently exploring a possible resolution of this matter.”

“I can’t understand why [prosecutors would strike a plea deal], unless he’s not the biggest fish in the school,” King told TheDCNF.

The allegations add another colorful twist to a story that already includes the suspect leaving a laptop with the username RepDWS in a phone booth after he was banned from the House network; an arrest at Dulles airport with a suitcase full of cash; and the disappearance of the entire House Democratic Caucus server.

Disappearing money would be key because Republican House officials close to the probe say that not only did huge quantities of House technology equipment disappear, they suspect Imran ran a $7 million “ghost employee” scheme where no-show employees — one of whom had been most-recently worked at McDonald’s — were added to the House payroll as IT administrators.

In a deposition, Imran’s stepmom — who was interviewed by the FBI — said the bureau asked her where the money was going.

A source told TheDCNF the purpose of the new LLC Imran wanted them to create was to hold assets, including real estate, but that the assets would remain under Imran’s control.

The Awans owned numerous homes that operated as rental properties. TheDCNF interviewed most of the tenants, and all said the Awans demanded rent in the form of cash or blank money orders.

Virginia licensing documents show that Imran became a licensed real estate broker during the time period he was earning $160,000 from Congress. The licensing process requires certifying that...

A witness statement that is part of a batch of newly released police documents concerning the Las Vegas shooting reveals that in the days before the Las Vegas shooting, Stephen Paddock and a woman were picked up by an Uber driver who said Paddock “commented on the Mandalay Bay Area for a terrorist attack” as he was being dropped off at the Mandalay Bay. The witness statement is one of many previously unspoken statements that were released nearly one week ago after a judge ordered them to be released. Newly released LVMPD witness statement from Uber driver who picked up Stephen Paddock

“I got a request to pick up Paddock at Terminal #1 pick-up area for Uber, not sure what day or time. I picked up a man and a woman with a big blue suitcase, old looking, and heavy, and he commented on the Mandalay Bay area for a terrorist attack and [was] dropped at the Mandalay Bay,” the Uber driver stated in her report filed with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. “Maybe check Uber records.” --Witness Uber driver who had contact with Stephen Paddock

Newly released LVMPD witness statement from Uber driver who picked up Stephen Paddock

The name of the Uber driver is redacted on the report, but the driver is described as a 5'10 200-pound woman with red hair and blue eyes. The witness statement was documented on October 4, 2017 by an LVMPD officer, which begs the question as to why the public is only now finding out 8 months after the Las Vegas shooting that Paddock mentioned a terrorist attack taking place at Mandalay Bay, prior to the attack. Interestingly, the witness originally wrote "they" in her statement, but then crossed out the word "they" and changed it to "he". However, in the witness statement, it is made very clear that another woman was also in the car with Paddock and the Uber driver. It is unclear whether the woman in the Uber with Paddock was his girlfriend Marilou Danley, but other recently released Vegas shooting documents revealed that three women were in Paddock's room when police entered his 32nd floor suite the night of the shooting Oct 1, 2017.

On October 1, 2017, police say Stephen Paddock, 64, opened fire from his 32nd floor suite at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, killing 58 people and injuring over 800 more. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police and the FBI have still not provided a motive for the shooting, remaining adamant that Paddock was a lone shooter and that the Las Vegas Shooting was not an act of terrorism. It is concerning that investigators would immediately say that the Las Vegas shooting is not an act of terrorism, because according to the witness statement, Paddock himself used the phrase "terrorist attack" when speaking to the Uber driver about Mandalay Bay.

Immediately following the Las Vegas shooting, ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack, saying that Paddock was an ISIS soldier who converted to Islam six months prior to the attack. However, without completing an investigation and less than 48 hours after the shooting, Aaron Rouse, the Special Agent in Charge of the FBI in Las Vegas told the American public and the media in a press conference on October 2, 2017, one day after the shooting, “We have determined, to this point, no connection to an international terrorist group.”

Adding more concern to questions surrounding the competence level and honesty of Las Vegas shooting investigators, including Sheriff Lombardo and Agent Rouse, the witness statement was documented on October 4, 2017. However, according to a statement made by Dr. Larry Barton, an FBI Academy Threat Management Instructor, during an interview with NBC News on October 2, 2017, “I just got this 10 minutes ago, and you’ll be the first people to know this. The good people of Uber just called me to tell me that they picked up this perpetrator and his girlfriend on September 9th, and September 20th, and guess where they took them? To the Mandalay Bay. This fell out of fortune, so I suggested to Uber, you need to ...

AIDS rates in California have soared in the last year following Gov. Jerry Brown’s decision to legalize the intentional spread of the HIV virus.

Last year, Governor Brown passed a controversial law that made it legal for HIV infected people to knowingly infect others. He also gave blood banks the green-light to accept HIV infected blood from donors.

Unsurprisingly, this has been a complete disaster for the state of California.

Whilst HIV and AIDS cases continue to decline nationally, new figures show that California is currently in the grip of a new epidemic.

Patch.com reports: More than half of new HIV cases in 2016 were in Southern states, where 38 percent of U.S. residents live, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. In California, there were 15.2 new cases per 100,000 population in 2016, according to the report.

Though new cases were disproportionately concentrated in the South, HIV infections nationwide dropped 18 percent from 2008 to 2014, the CDC said in an earlier report. The biggest decline — 56 percent, to 1,700 cases in 2014 — was among IV drug users, but the opioid crisis could offset those gains, said Dr. Jonathan Mermin, director of the agency’s National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention.

“The opioid epidemic in our country is jeopardizing the dramatic progress we’ve made in reducing HIV among people who inject drugs,” Mermin said in a statement. “We need to expand the reach of comprehensive syringe services programs, which reduce the risk of HIV infection without increasing drug use, and can link people to vital services to help them stop using drugs.”

Some states saw substantial drops in HIV infection rates during the six-year period, according to the earlier report. New HIV infection rates dropped by 10 percent each year in Washington, D.C., 8 percent in Maryland, 7 percent in Pennsylvania, 6 percent in Georgia, 5 percent in New York and North Carolina, 4 percent in Illinois and 2 percent in Texas.

The new CDC report on HIV rates, based on 2014 and 2015 data, takes a deeper look at the geographic locations and racial and ethnic backgrounds of those most at risk. It showed that 37,600 people nationally were diagnosed with HIV in 2014, more than half of them in the South. Also that year, 53 percent of the 6,000 people who died from HIV lived in the South.

SubscribeThe report marks some other differences, too. Nationally, the majority of people with new HIV diagnoses live in urban areas, where medical treatment is readily available. But in the South and Midwest, 23 percent and 21 percent, respectively, live in suburban or isolated rural areas.

In the South in particular, the larger and more geographically dispersed population of people living with HIV creates special challenges for prevention and treatment, the CDC said.

Understanding the places and populations most affected by HIV and AIDS allows the federal government to more effectively target its resources where they’re needed the most, while still supporting basic HIV education and prevention for everyone across the country, according to the agency.

The need is especially acute in the South, where people are less likely than in other areas of the country to know they’re infected. Nationally, 85 percent of people living with HIV knew they had tested positive for the virus, but 10 of 17 Southern states fell below that mark.

Early treatment is critical. Nationally, 75 percent of people newly diagnosed with HIV got the care they needed within a month, but that didn’t happen in half of Southern states. As a result the CDC said, people are three times more likely to die in some Southern states as in others.

Minorities, especially African-Americans, were most at risk of HIV infections, according to the report. That corresponds to general population trends that show more than half of the nation’s black population lives in Southern states — Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.

Also from the report:

In all geographic areas but the West, African-Americans were more likely to contract HIV than other races. They made up 54 percent of new diagnoses in the South, 50 percent of new diagnoses in the Midwest, 39 percent of new diagnoses in the Northeast, and 19 percent in the West.

In the West, 39 percent of people newly diagnosed with HIV were Hispanics/Latinos. That compares with...
