Who would have thought that Dubai’s Head of Security could be such a racist, bigoted “Islamophobe”? “Dubai’s Head of Security supports Trump’s ‘Muslim ban,’” AlBawaba, January 29, 2017 (thanks to Jerk Chicken): America’s ban on immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries may be stirring anger across the West, but in the Arab world the move has […]
Robert Spencer: Leftists Determined to Stop Trump from Defending America
For the Left, it’s national suicide, or else. My latest in FrontPage: President Trump’s executive orders on the Mexican border and the temporary ban on immigration from seven countries that are hotbeds of jihad terror have the Left in an uproar that increases in hysteria by the minute, proving once again that the Left will […]
Dissent memo circulating in the State Department over Trump’s policy on refugees and immigrants
“A policy which closes our doors to over 200 legitimate travelers in the hopes of preventing a small number of travelers who intend to harm Americans from using the visa system to enter the United States will not achieve its aim of making our country safer.” Why not? What is the alternative? We saw what […]
Robert Spencer: President Trump Moves to Protect U.S., Media in Uproar
The establishment propaganda media playing its predictable game, to dwindling audiences.

U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops denounces Trump’s plan to favor refugees from persecuted religious minorities
“‘We believe in assisting all, regardless of their religious beliefs,’ said Bishop Joe S. Vásquez, the chairman of the committee on migration for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.” That sounds very high-minded until one realizes that the Trump plan is to favor refugees who are fleeing being persecuted for their religious beliefs. This […]
Trump: “This is not about religion — this is about terror and keeping our country safe”
“The seven countries named in the executive order are the same countries previously identified by the Obama administration as sources of terror” — a fact completely ignored in the establishment propaganda media. “To be clear, this is not a Muslim ban, as the media is falsely reporting. This is not about religion — this is […]
Conway explains that immigration ban targets not Muslims, but countries with history of harboring terrorists
As the Left continues its hysteria over a “Muslim ban,” here is the truth. “Conway explains why ‘Muslim, Islam’ not in Trump refugee order,” by Anna Giaritelli, Washington Examiner, January 27, 2017: Democrats have slammed President Trump new executive order that tries to bar foreign terrorists from entry into the U.S. by curtailing certain refugees […]
Priebus says more countries could be added to the immigration ban
“You can point to other countries that have similar problems like Pakistan and others — perhaps we need to take it further. But for now, immediate steps, pulling the Band-Aid off, is to do further vetting for people traveling in and out of those countries.” President Trump is shrewd to have started with the list […]
Merkel tells Trump that global fight against terrorism no excuse for banning Muslim migrants
Trump’s executive order isn’t really a ban on Muslims entering. It is a temporary halt on immigration from seven jihad terror hotspots. But that is too much for Merkel, who would rather see her citizens murdered in jihad attacks than stop the Muslim migrant influx, even though there is an unknowable number of jihadis among […]
