'''Boko Haram''', officially ''Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati wal-Jihad'', which in [[Arabic]] means "People Committed to the Propagation of the Prophet's Teachings and [[Jihad]]," is a Nigerian [[Sunni]] Muslim terrorist group. The phrase ''Boko Haram'' means "Western education is forbidden". The group wants the overthrow of the [[Nigeria]]n government and has killed thousands of people, including 44 people on [[Christmas]] day 2011,<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-13809501 Who are Nigeria's Boko Haram Islamists?, BBC, January 11, 2012]</ref> coordinated attacks that killed at least 185 people on January 20.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/nigeria/9045054/We-will-attack-Nigeria-again-and-again-Boko-Haram-leader-vows.html 'We will attack Nigeria again and again', Boko Haram leader vows, The Telegraphe, January 27, 2012]</ref>

Muslim cleric Mohammed Yusuf formed Boko Haram in 2002. They publicly held allegiance to [[al-Qaeda]] during Secretary Clinton's tenure but switched to the [[Islamic State]] in 2015.

The [[United Nations]] has designated Boko Haram a terrorist organization after it bombed UN headquarters in Abuja.

Omar Shakir

2021-06-19T06:29:29Z

Evadetyranny19: /* Apartheid slur */

'''Omar Shakir''' (b. 1958) is an [[Arab]]-American anti-[[Israel]]<ref>[https://canarymission.org/individual/Omar_Shakir Omar Shakir - Canary Mission] Apr 7, 2021</ref> hater. Active against Israel since he was a student.<ref>Ophir Dayan: [https://www.israelhayom.co.il/opinion/705627 'Shakir expulsion: The upper court is an important boundary mark.'] Israel Hayom, November 9, 2019:
<blockquote>
Shakir, who took up his current position in 2016, has been involved and invested in the Israeli-Arab conflict since his days as a student. While studying at Stanford University, he was president of the university's anti-Israel group, and even submitted a boycott proposal on behalf of Israel on its behalf, calling for the university to withdraw its investments from companies doing business in Israel. Even then, in 2013, members of the Student Council claimed that his remarks were full of "historical inaccuracies" and that they were an "attack on Israel in disguise." Upon graduation he began working at the Center for Constitutional Rights, where he represented a professor fired from the University of Illinois for tweets such as "Scores have turned anti-Semitism from something terrible to something respectable since 1948."
His hobby at the time was, by the way, lecturing at events of "Students of Justice in Palestine," one of the most extremist anti-Israel student organizations, who argue that the Palestinian state should cover the entire territory of Israel. From the beginning of its activity until today, he presents Israel as an apartheid state that carries out ethnic cleansing.''</blockquote></ref>

All along, Shakir was and is dismissing Israel's security concerns but instead maliciously defaming it.

From a 2010 Arab report,<ref>"BDS in the USA, 2001-2010." Noura Erakat In: 255 (Summer 2010)</ref> he struggled with applying the "apartheid" label on Israel because conditions are not the same as [[South Africa]], such as Arabs in Israel actually do have voting rights.

A year later, Shakir himself also promoted it, abusing the [[HRW]] platform.<ref>[https://www.thejc.com/news/uk/human-rights-watch-israel-apartheid-report-condemned-as-fiction-1.516093 Human Rights Watch 'Israel apartheid' report condemned as 'fiction'], Mathilde Frot, The JC,
Apr 27, 2021. ''Board of Deputies president Marie van der Zyl said the report was a "sham which puts rhetoric above fact." "They consistently ignore or downplay the fact that Israel’s security measures in the West Bank and around Gaza are the response to well-documented terror activities. The ridiculous ‘apartheid‘ slur in this report is belied by the fact that, as it stands, Israel’s next Government may well rely on the support of Arab parties, voted for by the country’s fully-enfranchised Arab citizens. "Israel’s Arab citizens have been appointed as ambassadors, professors, Supreme Court judges, hospital directors, and other key roles throughout Israel’s socio-economic landscape. Civil society organizations should be directing their efforts towards reinvigorating the peace process, not trading in false hyperbole that extends the cycle of conflict," she said. NGO Monitor president Professor Gerald Steinberg, also criticised the report writing in the Jerusalem Post that it comprised "the standard mix of shrill propaganda, false allegations and legal fictions." "Exploiting the 'apartheid' image for propaganda is a cynical appropriation of the suffering of the victims of the actual apartheid regime"..''</ref>

He expanded the Apartheid term, as so to fit his long-term anti-Israel agenda. Not realizing his expansion would cover many others, but realizing that according to his new apartheid definition, Israel can never escape this terminology, no matter what it does.

==Organizations==
Perhaps more important than the widespread anti-Semitism among socialist leaders was the anti-semitism of socialist groups such as the [[Socialist International]] and the [[Fabian Society]].

===Second International===
After reference to the exploitation of workers by Jewish capitalists and denunciation of "philo-Semitic agitation," the Second International (the original [[Socialist International]]) adopted a resolution condemning not just antisemitic, but "philo-Semite outbursts as one of the means by which the capitalist class and the reactionary circles seek to divert the Socialist movement from its purpose and divide the workers."<ref>[http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/judaica/ejud_0002_0018_0_18779.html Socialism], ''[http://www.gale.cengage.com/servlet/ItemDetailServlet?region=9&imprint=000&titleCode=M355&cf=p&type=4&id=194102 Encyclopaedia Judaica]'' (The Gale Group, 2008), via [http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/indexold.html The Jewish Virtual Library]</ref>

===Fabian Society===
Britain's [[Fabian Society]] (which "set up the banner of socialism militant")<ref>G. Bernard Shaw, "[http://walterschafer.com/fabiansocietyhistory.htm Fabian Tract No. 41: The Fabian Society, Its Early History]," (Fabian Society Reprint, 1899)</ref> hosted a number of anti-Semites, including Beatrice Webb, [[George Bernard Shaw]], [[H.G. Wells]], J.A. Hobson, and [[Oswald Mosley]].

Beatrice Webb, who played a crucial role in the founding of the Fabian Society, wrote that “the strongest impelling motive of the Jewish race” was “the love of ''profit'' as distinct from other forms of money-earning.” (Italics in original.)<ref>Beatrice Webb, “East London Labour,” ''[https://books.google.com/bookes?id=udcaAAAAYAAJ The Nineteenth Century]'', Vol. XXIV (July–December 1888), p. 176.</ref> "A careful study of anti-Semitism, prejudice and accusations might be of great value to many Jews," wrote H.G.

J.A. Hobson blamed London poverty on "the foreign Jew," whom he described as "a terrible competitor. He is ... almost void of social morality. No compunction or consideration for his fellow-worker will keep him from underselling and overreaching them; he acquires a thorough mastery of all the dishonourable tricks of trade which are difficult to restrain by law; the superior calculating intellect, which is a national heritage, is used unsparingly to enable him to take advantage of every weakness, folly, and vice of the society in which he lives."<ref>John A.

==Anti-capitalist anti-semitism in Germany==
During the 19th century, the center of left-wing anti-Semitism gradually shifted from [[Paris]] to [[Vienna]], where the "radical-democratic and nationalist left wing" was headed by German Liberal Party leader Georg von Schönerer,<ref>Viktor Karády, ''[https://books.google.com/books?id=4hGg9rMQpEEC The Jews of Europe in the modern era: a socio-historical outline]'' (Central European University Press, 2004) ISBN 9639241520, p. 360</ref> one of a group of "left-wing German liberals" who demanded "the exclusion of Jews from the new movement and as far as possible from public life";<ref>Robert A.

{{cquote|German writers picked up on earlier anti-Enlightenment theories of a Judeo-Masonic conspiracy to rule the world. During the French Revolution, the Jews, along with the Masons, were identified as forces for liberalism, secularism, and capitalism. German writers quickly found the Jews to be a more popular target than the Masons, perhaps because they were more visible or more different. The originally Judeo-Masonic theories eventually discarded the other conspirators, such as the Templars and the Illuminati, and focused on the Jews.<ref>Tyler Cowen, "[http://www.thefreemanonline.org/featured/the-socialist-roots-of-modern-anti-semitism/ The Socialist Roots of Modern Anti-Semitism]," ''The Freeman'' (Foundation for Economic Education), January 1997</ref>}}

==20th century: Stalinist anti-Semitism==
According to Henry L. Feingold, director of the Jewish Resource Center at Baruch College, "socialism contained the seeds to become the anti-Semitism of the intellectuals of the Left."<ref>Henry L. Feingold, ''[https://books.google.com/books?id=-ZrhFjuebEEC Lest memory cease: finding meaning in the American Jewish past]'' (Syracuse University Press, 1996) ISBN 0815604009, p. 81</ref> In the 20th century, those seeds took root and grew into a forest bearing poisonous fruit. For example, in the former [[Soviet Union]], even after the death of the anti-Semite [[Stalin]],<ref>See Konstantin Azadovskii and Boris Egorov, "[http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~hpcws/egorov.htm From Anti-Westernism to Anti-Semitism]," ''Journal of Cold War Studies'', Vol. 4, No. 1 (Winter 2002), pp. 66-80.

{{cquote|Since World War II Jews and Judaism have been liberated in every country and territory where capitalism has been restored to vigorous growth—and this includes Germany.

According to Nazi hunter [[Simon Wiesenthal]], during the [[Six Day War]] on Israel in 1967, the East German Communist regime employed former Nazi propagandists to write anti-Israeli propaganda, with the substitution of a few words such as “Israeli” for “Jew” and “progressive forces” for “National Socialism.”<ref>Simon Wiesenthal, ''The Same Language: First for Hitler—Now for Ulbricht'' (Bonn: Rolf Vogel, Deutschland Berichte, 1968), as cited in Jeffrey Herf, ''[https://books.google.com/books?id=yahqnBEEbQEC Divided memory: the Nazi past in the two Germanys]'' (Harvard University Press, 1997) ISBN 0674213033, p. 189</ref>

On a similar note, Stalin before his death enacted the [[Doctor's plot]], which persecuted various Jewish people under the pretense of their involvement in a conspiracy to poison Soviet leaders. Ironically, this led directly to Stalin's death via a brain hemorrhage due to the elimination of several of the USSR's best doctors.

"Outside of the Western communist parties, which were mostly oriented solidly towards [[Moscow]]’s anti-Zionism, a fully articulated anti-Zionism appeared only in the early 1970s with the formation of the so-called [[New Left]], which interpreted the Middle-East conflict in terms of its anti-imperialist and anti-colonialist rhetoric," reports the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia.

A 2016 study by the Research Association on the [[Socialist Unity Party of Germany|SED]] [Socialist Unity Party] State at [[Berlin]]'s Free University, financed by Germany's Federal Ministry of Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth, found that "there has been more left-wing violence in Germany since 2009 than right-wing violence." Researchers found extensive anti-Semitism among left-wing extremists in Germany, and said the view of anti-Jewish extremist leftism can be traced to the word [https://www.jpost.com/Diaspora/German-left-wing-radicals-say-Jews-have-too-much-influence-460773 “Jew” as a synonym for “capitalist” and “exploiter.”]

Hillary Clinton was also known to refer to anyone who failed her as "You [censored] Jew!" (or at times "You Jew [censored]!" or "You [censored] Jew [censored]"), most notably to her Jewish campaign manager Paul Fray after Bill Clinton lost the House of Representatives election on 1974, and has even used the phrase towards her own husband Bill Clinton.<ref>Oppenheimer, Jerry.

==21st-century anti-Semitism: the union of leftism and Islamism==
{{See also|European migrant crisis}}
In the 21st century these seeds have festered into full flower, with the embrace of Islamist anti-Semitism by the Left:
{{cquote|Although traditional Trotskyite ideology is in no way close to radical Islamic teachings and the shariah, since the radical Islamists also subscribed to anticapitalism, antiglobalism, and [[anti-Americanism]], there seemed to be sufficient common ground for an alliance. Thus, the militants of the [[far left]] began to march side by side with the radical Islamists in demonstrations, denouncing American aggression and Israeli crimes. In Britain a new political party named Respect was established, uniting Trotskyites, Stalinists, Muslim Brotherhood militants, and similar groups.<ref>Walter Laquer, ''[https://books.google.com/books?id=xMGeXXBSY8wC The changing face of antisemitism: from ancient times to the present day]'' [Oxford University Press US, 2006] ISBN 0195304292, p. 186</ref>}}
For example, the European Union's European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia decided not to publish its comprehensive study of the causes of anti-Semitism in Europe in 2003, a source familiar with the report told London's ''Financial Times'', after the report uncovered "a trend towards Muslim anti-Semitism," and that "on the left there is also mobilization against Israel that is not always free of prejudice."<ref>Reuters, "[https://www.haaretz.com/news/eu-racism-watchdog-shelves-anti-semitism-report-1.106473 EU racism watchdog shelves anti-Semitism report]," ''Haaretz'', November 22, 2003</ref>

==Palestinian themed anti-Semitism and violence==
:{{See also|Omar Shakir|Palestinian themed anti-Semitism under the Biden junta}}
[[File:Floyd_Palestine.jpeg|right|300px|thumb|[[George Floyd]] depicted as a Palestinian martyr.]]
[[Palestinian-themed violence]] refers to violence perpetrated by Palestinian-Arab and other jihadis as well as [[leftwing]] radicals (with their own agenda). Most ethnic Palestinian-Arabs do not support [[Hamas]] per se or their [[Iran]]ian benefactors.

One thing was clear, the attackers were not wearing MAGA hats...<ref>[https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/anti-semitic-attacks-spread-like-wildfire-in-the-us-during-gaza-conflict Antisemitic attacks spread like ‘wildfire’ in the U.S. during Gaza conflict], PBS Newshour, May 24, 2021.<blockquote>... The span of these attacks, they spread like wildfire across the country. You mentioned a few, California, Arizona, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, South Carolina, Florida, acts of harassment and vandalism and violence.

So, number one, the span is much greater than what we have seen, but secondly the tone, the brazenness, the audacity of these assaults in broad daylight. We have seen people basically say, if you are wearing a Star of David, you must be a Zionist and you should be killed.

We have seen people hurling bottles and objects at homes with mezuzot on the door that were identifiably Jewish. We have seen people driving cars or marauding through Jewish neighborhoods and yelling, "We're going to rape your women," right, or yelling things like "Allahu akbar," and literally then wreaking physical violence on people.

And one of the incidents that was captured was in broad daylight in Times Square, a group of people beating and bloodying a Jewish man whose only crime was he was wearing a kippah, to the point where he was left unconscious in the street while people kicked him, bloodied him with like crutches.

... Well, let's be clear. None of the people committing these crimes wearing MAGA hats, right?

The reality is.. I do believe that political language can have real world consequences. But this is very different kind of political language... in this case, we have people waving Palestinian flags and then beating Jewish people. And, in this case, you know what I might really draw a parallel to is the hate crimes committed against Asian Americans, where unhinged, fictionalized conspiracies about China first spouted by political leaders led to real-world consequences, as Asian Americans were attacked on the streets.

Well, today, we have unhinged, fictionalized conspiracies about Israel, that somehow the Jewish state is systematically slaughtering children or committing genocide. And then that leads to real-world attacks on Jewish people in the streets of America, on our campuses, in our communities.

So, although, again, the political tenor may be different, the real outcome is the same. And that's why we think people, regardless of where you are on the spectrum, need to speak out clearly and firmly and forcefully and say, in an unambiguous way, that anti-Semitism is unacceptable, because, again, this isn't activism. It's hate, and it should be called out as such.</blockquote>

On May 22, 2021, near Chicago, a so-called "pro-Palestinian" was arranged to attack participants of a demonstration, with chants of 'Kill the J**s' and the Islamic call of "Khyber."<ref>“‘Kill the Jews’: Arab mob attacks pro-Israel rally in Illinois,” Arutz Sheva, May 24, 2021. https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/306739
<blockquote>
A pro-Israel rally held outside of Chicago over the weekend was crashed by a mob of Arab protesters who attacked the pro-Israel demonstration and called for the slaughter of Jews.

The incident occurred on Sunday in downtown Naperville, a city of roughly 150,000 less than 30 miles west of Chicago….

In the week leading up to the event, the Instagram account created for the march received over 1,300 comments containing vile anti-Semitism, hate speech, calls for violence at the event, and death threats toward the organizers said Daniel Raab, one of the people behind the rally... a counter-demonstration, dubbed the “Naperville Protest for Palestine”, was later planned, “with the explicit intention to intimidate the Jewish run rally and march onto city hall to confront the 50 Jews and allies gathered for Israel. Violent intentions were expressed as the goal of the confrontations.”... gathering was interrupted when multiple trucks filled with men waving Palestinian flags drove by, swearing at the attendees and yelling “Free Palestine”….

“We could hear the mob chanting while they marched toward us ‘From the river to the sea Palestine will be free’, ‘Intifada Intifada long live the Intifada’, and ‘Khyber Khyber ya Yahood, Jaish Muhammed sa Yahood,’” said Raab. “They were cursing at us and saying to ‘kill the Jews’.”

“When we evacuated a car with four teenage boys, one Jew and three non-Jews from the Walk for Israel got caught in the mob at a traffic light. They were surrounded by the mob with people jumping on and into their car, spitting and punching.”..</blockquote></ref>

Nor on some Muslims attacking Jews in the US under "Palestine" flag.

[[NYT]]'s columnists protested on the limited stand in face of the attacks; singling out Israel; incorrectness in descriptions and confronting reality to 'progressives who claim to be horrified by every form of prejudice':<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/24/opinion/anti-zionism-anti-semitism.amp.html Anti-Zionism isn’t anti-Semitism? Someone didn’t get the memo] Bret Stephens, The New York Times, May 24, 2021</ref>
<blockquote>
...it is especially despicable when Israel is singled out in ways that apply to no other country. To take just one example, when was the last time you heard of a campus demonstration or a call for boycotts and divestment in response to Turkey’s 47-year occupation of northern Cyprus or its routine bombardment, using U.S.-made jets, of Kurdish militants in Iraq?

The accusations made against Israel — stealing Palestinian land (despite the fact that Israel vacated the territory from which it was subsequently attacked) and wanton violence against Palestinian civilians, particularly children (despite the fact that Israel regularly warned its targets to vacate buildings before targeting them) — can’t help but make me think of ancient libels about Jewish greed and bloodlust.

Also echoing ancient libels is the idea that 11 days of fighting between Israel and Hamas somehow constitute a unique global horror, even as the world barely takes notice of the Taliban’s murder this month of 85 people at a school in Kabul. The anti-Semitic worldview is always Judeocentric, in the sense that it is obsessed with Jewish behavior as the supreme factor in domestic and international political life. The left has lately been awfully Judeocentric.

This '''ought to be whistling loudly in the ears of progressives who claim to be horrified by every form of prejudice.''' Instead, they have indulged an anti-Israel movement that keeps descending into the crudest forms of anti-Semitism. They remind me of a certain kind of Trump voter who would occasionally voice disgust at his most outrageous behavior, only to come back into alignment with him a few days later. After a while, it becomes clear that the outrage is cheap, if it isn’t simply fake.

Progressives will have to come to their own reckoning about what to do about the burgeoning anti-Semitism in their midst. As for Jews, they should take the events of the last few days less as an outrage than as an omen.</blockquote>

With the goal to express support for the Palestinians, according to them.

They removed the posts later, either because of outside criticism or out of an understanding that what underpinned the posts they shared with many millions around the world, is of course pure anti-Semitism. But in simple terms: both have three times more followers than the total world Jewish population, after Adolf Hitler - that one, of those posts "Hit... was right" - succeeded in exterminating more than a third of the Jewish population in the Holocaust.

====Islamic incitement - US====
The South [[Florida]] Muslim Federation disseminated a malicious campaign of vilification, distortion.<ref>[https://www.algemeiner.com/2021/05/20/dangerous-incitement-from-the-south-florida-muslim-federation/ Dangerous Incitement From the South Florida Muslim Federation] by Dexter Van Zile, The Algemeiner, May 20, 2021.
<blockquote>
...the video, protesters can be heard chanting, “Netanyahu, You Can’t Hide, We Charge You With Genocide,” “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free!” and “Israel, What Do You Say? How Many Kids Have You Killed Today.”

At about eight and a half minutes into the video, which can be seen on Facebook here, a keffiyeh-wearing protester is shown displaying a sign that reads “IS...= NAZI/They Are Committing Genocide.”.... the letter, Kakli complains about the deaths of Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip, failing to mention that many of these deaths are caused by Hamas rockets that have fallen short and landed on the homes of Palestinians — or because Hamas uses civilians (and children) as human shields.

In his plea for peace in Jerusalem, Kakli makes no reference to the “TikTok Attacks” that took place in April, during which young Arab men recorded themselves attacking Orthodox Jews walking the streets of the Holy City and posted these videos on the Internet.

Kakli makes no reference to the ongoing incitement from the Al-Aqsa Mosque, where imams call for acts of violence against Jews, nor does he acknowledge the call from a leader of Hamas for his followers to buy a five-shekel knife and decapitate Jews with said knife.

In the story told by Kakli and promoted by the organization he leads, everything is Israel’s fault...
question for Deputy Hamze: Does the incitement his organization promotes against Israel make Jews in Florida more or less safe?

Anwar al-Awlaki

2021-06-19T05:59:10Z

Evadetyranny19:

[[File:Imam-anwar-al-awlaki.jpg|thumb|Anwar al-Awlaki.]]
'''Anwar al-Awlaki''' (born in New Mexico of [[Yemen|Yemeni descent]]) was a radical [[imam]], and was the first American citizen to be selected for extrajudicial execution under new powers that the Obama Administration gave itself. Formerly an imam in Denver, Colorado, and San Diego, California, he led prayers, taught lessons, and delivered Friday sermons at Dar al-Hijrah [[Islamic]] Center in Falls Church, [[Virginia]]. He was also the [[Muslim]] Chaplain at [[George Washington University]]. He holds a B.S. in Civil Engineering from Colorado State University and an M.A. in Education Leadership from San Diego State University. Awlaki worked on a Doctorate in Human Resource Development at George Washington University.<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/liveonline/01/nation/ramadan_awlaki1119.htm Understanding Ramadan:The Muslim Month of Fasting.]</ref>

[[Nidal Malik Hasan]]'s family attended the Dar al Hijrah Islamic Center in Falls Church, Virginia, where Awlaki was preaching in 2001. At the same time, Nawaf al-Hamzi and Hani Hanjour, both September 11 hijackers, worshipped at that [[mosque]]. Two officials said the Washington-based task force was notified of communications between Hasan and Awlaki.<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_fort_hood_shooting_suspect AP Sources: Defense Dept worker looked into Hasan.]</ref> Awlaki praised Hasan as a hero and urged Muslims in the US military to follow in his footsteps. He also said that American Muslims who condemned the attack are hypocrites who have committed treason against their religion.<ref>[http://eye-on-the-world.blogspot.com/2009/11/fort-hood-murderer-nidal-malik-hasan.html Fort Hood murderer Nidal Malik Hasan reached out to radical anti-American imam Anwar al-Awlaki.]</ref> Malik Hasan is reported to have stated: "In the [[Qu’ran]], it says you are not supposed to have alliances with [[Jews]] or [[Christians]], and if you are killed in the military fighting against Muslims, you will go to hell."

Awlaki was based in [[Yemen]] since August 2006, and preached to U.S. Muslims in online lectures.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/6534584/Fort-Hood-shooting-Nidal-Malik-Hasan-had-contact-with-911-imam.html Fort Hood shooting: Nidal Malik Hasan 'had contact with 9/11 imam'.]</ref>

He was killed by a drone attack in Yemen in October 2011.

{{cquote|

The [[Taliban]] repeatedly said: show us the evidence and we will turn over whoever is guilty with the crime. The US should have given them the benefit of the doubt. Also our government could have dealt with the terrorist attacks as a crime against America rather than a war against America. So the guilty would be tried and only them would be punished rather than bombing an already destroyed country. I do not restrict myself to US media. I check out Aljazeerah (sic) and European media such as the BBC. I am seeing something that you are not seeing because of the one-sidedness of the US media. I see the carnage of Afghanistan. I see the innocent civilian deaths. That is why my opinion is different.
Keep in mind that I have no sympathy for whoever committed the crimes of Sep 11th. But that doesn't mean that I would approve the killing of my Muslim brothers and sisters in Afghanistan. Even though this is a dissenting view nowadays but as an American I do have the right to have a contrary opinion.
You can congratulate your Muslim friends with "Ramadan Mubarak". Anwar al-Awlaki. (2001).<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/liveonline/01/nation/ramadan_awlaki1119.htm Understanding Ramadan:The Muslim Month of Fasting.] Monday, Nov. 19, 2001.</ref>
}}

Awlaki's sermons are extremely anti-[[Israel]] and pro-[[jihad]].

{{cquote|
"Jihad is the greatest deed in Islam and the salvation of the ummah is in practicing it. In
times like these, when Muslim lands are occupied by the kuffar, when the jails of tyrants
are full of Muslim POWs, when the rule of the law of [[Allah]] is absent from this world and
when Islam is being attacked in order to uproot it, Jihad becomes obligatory on every
Muslim. Jihad must be practiced by the child even if the parents refuse, by the wife even
if the husband objects and by the one indebt even if the lender disagrees."
"Dear brothers and sisters the issue is urgent since today our enemy is neither a nation
nor a race. It is a system of kufr with global reach. The kuffar today are conspiring against
us like never before. So could we be heading towards the great battle between the
Romans and the Muslims - Al Malhamah - which the Prophet (saaws) spoke about?" Anwar al-Awlaki. (February 5, 2009.) <ref>[http://www.nefafoundation.org/miscellaneous/FeaturedDocs/nefaawlaki44wayssupportjihad.pdf "44 Ways to Support Jihad".]

Nidal Malik Hasan

2021-06-19T05:52:51Z

Evadetyranny19: Fixed style guide errors

[[File:7 27 b450.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Major Nidal Malik Hasan]]
[[File:Kim Munley.jpg|thumb|right|120px|Kim Munley, wounded in the attack, exchanged fire with Hasan before her partner Mark Todd fired the shot which brought Hasan down.]]
'''Nidal Malik Hasan''' (born September 8, 1970, age 39) is a [[Muslim]] and [[terrorist]] of [[Palestinian]] descent who shot 43 people at [[Fort Hood]], Texas on November 5, 2009 in a [[Jihad|jihadist attack]].<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,575892,00.html Fox News;] Hasan E-Mail to Radical Imam: 'I Can't Wait to Join You' in the Afterlife</ref> Hasan, despite being a US army psychiatrist with a rank of major, is responsible for the deadliest terrorist attack on American soil since [[9/11]].

According to ''The Daily Mail'' (UK),
* Hasan "was forcefully opposed to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, was trying to elude his pending deployment to Afghanistan."<ref name=mail />

He was born in [[Arlington, Virginia]].
Malik graduated from [[Virginia Tech|Virginia Tech University]] in 1997 before joining the military. He received his medical degree from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (F. Edward Herbert School Of Medicine) in Bethesda, Md., in 2001.<ref>[https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/05/nadal-malik-hasan-key-det_n_347748.html The ''Huffington Post'']</ref> Malik completed a six-year residency in [[psychiatry]] at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in [[Washington]], D. C., (2007), where he received a poor performance evaluation. He received his license in psychiatry on July 12, 2005.<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,575892,00.html Fox News] Hasan E-Mail to Radical Imam: 'I Can't Wait to Join You' in the Afterlife
</ref>

Hasan went on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood in [[Texas]] that left 14 dead (a number that includes one unborn child) and 30 wounded. The shooting took place at 1:30 p.m. on November 5, 2009 at the post's Soldier Readiness Center. Hasan came to the attention of law enforcement officials because of his Internet postings about suicide bombings and other threats, including posts that equated suicide bombers to soldiers who throw themselves on a grenade to save the lives of their comrades.
Major Shawn Keller, an officer stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, wrote:

:Apparently, there was no shortage of warning signs that Hasan identified more with Islamic jihadists than he did with the U.S. Army. From speeches, writings, conversations, affiliations and postings on jihadist websites, there were more than enough dots to connect that should have exposed Hasan as someone inclined to attack innocent people in the furtherance of a political, religious and ideological agenda. There were more than enough red flags raised that, at a minimum, should have gotten Hasan kicked out of the Army.<ref>[http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2009/11/12/why_i_am_angry.html RealClearPolitics - An Officer's Outrage Over Fort Hood]</ref>

[[Kimberley Munley]], a 34-year-old civilian police officer from Killeen, [[Texas]] and her partner, Mark Todd, confronted the Fort Hood shooter; Munley was outside directing traffic before the shooting. She was also hit by exchanged gunfire with Hasan. In August 2009, Malik Hasan purchased the two weapons that he used in the shooting.

In an interview, his cousin, Nader Hasan, said that he was going to be deployed to [[Afghanistan]]. However he was not ready to be moved and had hired a military attorney to fight his case.<ref name=mail>[https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1225627/Fort-Hood-shootings-Army-major-Nidal-Malik-Hasan-kills-12-injures-31-shootout-troops-army-base.html#ixzz0W7eue3RD God is great: Last words of Fort Hood gunman before being shot by police heroine.]</ref> He also revealed that Maj. Malik was under extreme stress due to the discrimination he received for being Muslim. He also received firearms training.<ref>[http://www.makli.com/malik-nadal-hasan-0012268/ ''News Around the Globe'']</ref> From his experience as a psychiatrist, he heard first-hand the accounts of the soldiers returning from [[Iraq]] and [[Afghanistan]]:

<blockquote>
''"He had people telling him on a daily basis the horrors that they saw over there."'' Malik's cousin, Nader Hasan.<ref name="mail"/>
</blockquote>

Malik was called ''"Camel Jockey"'' by his fellow soldiers. He was not in favor of U.S. wars in Muslim countries. Terry Lee, a retired colonel, ''cited an incident earlier this year as having had a big influence on Hasan – a fatal shooting at an army recruiting base in Little Rock, Arkansas. The suspect, Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, faces trial for murder.'' <ref name="guardian.co.uk">[http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/nov/06/nidal-malik-hasan-fort-hood-shooting1 Major Nidal Malik Hasan: Soldiers' psychiatrist who heard frontline stories.]</ref> Malik Hasan is reported to have stated: "In the [[Qu’ran]], it says you are not supposed to have alliances with [[Jews]] or [[Christians]], and if you are killed in the military fighting against Muslims, you will go to hell."

Malik is single with no children, and also had an apartment in Killeen, Texas. From September 2009, he attended the Islamic community mosque of Greater Killeen.

It is thought that due to the harassment Malik endured from his fellow soldiers, he may have had strong feelings of alienation.<ref name="guardian.co.uk"/> Virginia Tech University was the ''scene of the 2007 massacre by a student that left 32 dead.'' The Virginia Tech shooter, whose family was South Korean, may also have had problems with alienation.

Fort Hood, with around 40,000 troops, had two soldiers stationed there that committed suicide in 2009—nine suicide cases since the US invasion of Iraq in 2003. It was named after Confederate General John Bell Hood. It is the biggest US military base in the world.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/defence/6511138/Fort-Hood-The-largest-US-military-base-in-the-world.html The ''Telegraph'' Online: "Fort Hood: The largest US military base in the world"]</ref>

Malik is an Arabic word, meaning ''king''.

== Charged with premeditated murder ==
On November 12, 2009, Hasan was charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder in the military's legal system, making him eligible for the death penalty. It has not been decided whether to charge Hasan with a 14th count of murder related to the death of the unborn child of a pregnant shooting victim.<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091112/ap_on_re_us/us_fort_hood_shooting Army: Fort Hood suspect charged with murder.]</ref> Hasan's family asked John P. Galligan, a retired Army colonel, to represent him.

== Hasan's religious views ==

In June 2007, Malik Hasan was supposed to make a presentation on a medical subject of his choosing as a culminating exercise of the residency program. Instead, he lectured on Islam with ideas like this:

''"It's getting harder and harder for [[Muslims]] in the service to morally justify being in a military that seems constantly engaged against fellow Muslims."'' <ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/story/2009/11/09/ST2009110903704.html Fort Hood suspect warned of threats within the ranks.]</ref>

''...the military should allow Muslim soldiers to be released as conscientious objectors instead of fighting in wars against other Muslims.'' (to increase troop morale and decrease adverse events).

<blockquote>
The title of Hasan's PowerPoint presentation was "The Koranic World View As It Relates to Muslims in the U.S. Military." It consisted of 50 slides. In one slide, Hasan described the presentation's objectives as identifying "what the Koran inculcates in the minds of Muslims and the potential implications this may have for the U.S. military."
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
"If Muslim groups can convince Muslims that they are fighting for God against injustices of the 'infidels'; ie: enemies of Islam, then Muslims can become a potent adversary ie: suicide bombing, etc."... "We love death more than you love life!" [[Ibidem]].
</blockquote>

== Liberal media portrayal ==
===Sympathy for the bad guy===

The [[liberal media]], looking to protect Democrats and Obama, sought to create sympathy for Hasan, shield him from the Islamic fundamentalism label. Instead, the MSM focused on Hasan as having 'pre-traumatic stress disorder' (the horrors of war he heard about), the treatment and name-calling he endured from fellow soldiers or being understanding of Hasan because didn't want to be deployed to fight other Muslims (he would never have seen combat if deployed). One would never know from listening to the liberal media or reading [[Bias in Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] that Hasan caused the worst terror attack on American soil since [[9/11]].<ref>[http://www.gopusa.com/commentary/dmorris/2009/dm_1117.shtml Changing The Subject: Why O Nixed Ft. Hood Probe, GOPUSA, November 17, 2009]</ref>

Terrorism and national security matters are still very much tied to Republicans, as Democrats fail time and time again to prove themselves tough on these issues.

===Feminist hype===

The liberal press initially hailed Kimberley Munley as having "brought down" Hasan, but it turned out that her male partner [[Mark Todd]] fired the decisive shot. In fact, after wounding Munley, the terrorist managed to reload his gun before Todd shot him.

== Obama transition participant ==

Hasan is listed on page 29 of the document "Thinking Anew – Security Priorities for the Next Administration." Hasan was an advisor in homeland security of [[Barack Obama]]'s presidential transition team. Hasan is listed as a participant, though not a member, of several meetings in the George Washington University's Homeland Security Policy Institute's Presidential Transition Task Force.<ref>[https://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=115230 Shooter advised Obama transition, WND, November 06, 2009]</ref>

== Links to 9/11 Hijackers ==
[[File:Dar al Hijrah Islamic Center.jpg|thumb|Dar al Hijrah Islamic Center.]]
Hasan worshipped at the same mosque as two of the 9/11 terrorists.<ref>[https://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/hasan_fort_hood_sept_11/2009/11/08/283376.html Hasan Linked to Sept. 11 Hijackers, NewsMax.com November 8, 2009 ]</ref> The ''London Sunday Telegraph'' reports he was at the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Great Falls, Virginia in 2001, which was led by the radical imam [[Anwar al-Awlaki]].

<blockquote>
Hasan's family attended the Dar al Hijrah Islamic Center in Falls Church, Virginia, where Awlaki was preaching in 2001. Hasan's mother's funeral was held at the mosque on May 31, 2001, according to her obituary in the Roanoke Times newspaper, around the same time two 9/11 hijackers worshipped at the mosque and while Awlaki was preaching.<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091109/ap_on_re_us/us_fort_hood_shooting Lawyer asks investigators not to question Hasan.]</ref>
</blockquote>

The mosque is one of the largest on the East Coast of the USA.
[[File:Imam-anwar-al-awlaki.jpg|thumb|100px|Anwar al-Awlaki.]]
Two officials said the Washington-based task force was notified of communications between Hasan and a radical imam overseas.<ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_fort_hood_shooting_suspect AP Sources: Defense Dept worker looked into Hasan.]</ref> Imam Anwar al-Awlaki, who is now based in [[Yemen]], preaches to US Muslims in online lectures.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/6534584/Fort-Hood-shooting-Nidal-Malik-Hasan-had-contact-with-911-imam.html Fort Hood shooting: Nidal Malik Hasan 'had contact with 9/11 imam'.]</ref>

Liberal intolerance

2021-05-23T01:49:56Z

'''Liberal intolerance''' is the tendency of [[liberals]] to be intolerant of ideas that contradict [[liberalism|liberal ideology]] which increasingly includes many strange notions. For example, radical [[feminism|feminists]] commonly claim that one is not born a man or woman, but one becomes a man or woman through [[gender]] socialization.<ref>[https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/feminism-gender/#GenSocCon - Feminist Perspectives on Sex and Gender - Gender socialization], Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy</ref> Those who hold to conservative Christian beliefs are often condemned as "intolerant" by liberals and secularists.<ref>Nye, Abby (October 2, 2008).

== Liberal intolerance and academia ==

=== Politicized hiring of professors ===

In 2013, a study found that academia was less likely to hire evangelical Christians due to discriminatory attitudes.<ref>Alexander, Rachel (June 10, 2013). [https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2013/06/10/suspicions-confirmed-academia-shutting-out-conservative-professors-n1616406/page/full "Suspicions confirmed: Academia shutting out conservative professors"]. Townhall.com.</ref>

=== Attacks on free speech ===
During the McCarthy era, academia prided itself on resisting attempts to restrict the rights of professors to advocate for Communism or other positions unpopular with the general public. However, in the 21st Century, faculty are not allowed to make statements that could be viewed as potentially making some students uncomfortable. So, minority students hold faculty into account for "microaggressions" or the failure to make "trigger warnings" if course material deals with topics that some students may find offensive. Universities and their staffs are expected to create "safe spaces" where minority students can exchange their pre-conceived notions about issues without being exposed to contrary viewpoints. These politically correct imperatives take priority over any concern for freedom of speech and/or academic freedom.

* Campuses create "safe spaces" where students can shelter from discombobulating thoughts and receive spiritual balm for the trauma of microaggressions. [http://nypost.com/2016/11/20/college-kids-are-proving-trumps-point/]

For example, at the [[University of Virginia]], Douglas Muir, an executive lecturer in the Engineering School and the Darden Business School, had used his personal Facebook account to respond to a post about a lecture given by the founder of [[Black lives matter|Black Lives Matter]]. He wrote, "Black lives matter is the biggest racist group since the clan. Are you kidding me. Disgusting!!!"<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.cavalierdaily.com/article/2016/10/lecturer-who-compared-black-lives-matter-with-kkk-has-agreed-to-take-leave|title=Lecturer who compared Black Lives Matter with KKK "has agreed to take leave": Douglas Muir to issue separate statement to community
|first=Dani |last=Bernstein |date=Oct 07 2016 |work=The Cavalier|accessdate=October 10, 2016}}</ref> The BLM students protested, and the Dean at first issued a statement saying that Muir's views do not represent the University and later announced that Muir was asked to take a leave of absence. After the leave of absence was announced, the local NAACP still asked that Muir be fired.

At [[Cornell University]], historically white fraternities (which are not allowed to discriminate based on race or religion) are suspended for even minor violations involving underage drinking. However, when Omega Psi Phi, a historically black fraternity, held a party that ended in a fatal knife fight, no disciplinary action was taken against the fraternity or individuals. Also at Cornell, which has never been racially segregated and was not built with slave labor, black student activists have demanded that the "Cornell Plantations" a garden that has held that name since its founding more than a century ago, be renamed because the word "Plantations" evokes associations with pre-Civil War slavery.

In contrast, at the start of the fall 2016 semester, the [[University of Chicago]] sent a letter to incoming students denouncing political correctness and "trigger warnings." The letter stated, "You will find that we expect members of our community to be engaged in rigorous debate, discussion, and even disagreement. At times this may challenge you and even cause discomfort."<ref>{{cite news|url=http://time.com/4466021/uchicago-trigger-warnings/|title=University of Chicago: ‘We Do Not Support So-Called Trigger Warnings’|work=Time Magazine|date= Aug. 25, 2016|accessdate=October 10, 2016}}</ref> The American Association of University Professors issued a policy statement against trigger warnings in August 2014. It states in part:
{{cquote|Some discomfort is inevitable in classrooms if the goal is to expose students to new ideas, have them question beliefs they have taken for granted, grapple with ethical problems they have never considered, and, more generally, expand their horizons so as to become informed and responsible democratic citizens. Trigger warnings suggest that classrooms should offer protection and comfort rather than an intellectually challenging education. They reduce students to vulnerable victims rather than full participants in the intellectual process of education. The effect is to stifle thought on the part of both teachers and students who fear to raise questions that might make others “uncomfortable.”<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.aaup.org/report/trigger-warnings|accessdate=Oct 10, 2016|title=On Trigger Warnings}}

In September 2017, a UC Riverside was recorded stealing a "Make America Great Again" hat from a Trump supporter and insulting him. He illustrated her lack of tolerance by demanding that the owner of the hat (which she claimed represented "genocide") be punished for wearing it, and said bigoted statements like "your f***ing freedom of speech is genocide, homeboy," "I swear to G** I could burn this s***," and "I f***ing hate this country.

Left-wing violence under the Biden junta (2021-23)

2021-05-15T05:46:57Z

Evadetyranny19:

The following is a list of [[left-wing violence in the Trump era]] and subsequently under the [[Biden junta]] during 2021, this being a subpage whose information was moved here from the main content page. [[Anti-Asian hate crime]]s exploded under the junta.

==January 2021==
*Violent [[Antifa]] punks swarmed and attacked the home of [[Republican]] Senator [[Josh Hawley]] in [[Washington, D.C.]] while Hawley was in [[Missouri]] and terrorized and threatened Hawley's wife and newborn daughter, who were home at the time.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/violent-leftist-mob-swarms-attacks-senator-hawleys-dc-home-pounding-door-screaming-threats-terrorizing-wife-newborn-baby/ VIOLENT LEFTIST MOB Swarms and Attacks Senator Hawley’s DC Home — Pounding on Door, Screaming Threats — Terrorizing His Wife and Newborn Baby] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> Hawley subsequently ripped into the cowardly punks on Twitter when he found out what they did, which was in response to Hawley's plans to challenge the [[Democrat election fraud|illegal vote fraud]] committed by the [[Democrat]]s in the [[2020 presidential election]] on behalf of their candidate [[Joe Biden]].
*Groups of violent Antifa punks and [[Black Lives Matter|BLM]] thugs viciously attacked pro-Trump protesters the night before a [[Stop the Steal]] rally against Democrat vote fraud in Washington, D.C., injuring an elderly female Trump supporter.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/pro-trump-marine-goes-off-dc-police-mace-stop-steal-protesters-fing-back-aint-got-back-no/ Pro-Trump Marine Goes Off on DC Police After They Mace Stop the Steal Protesters, ‘We Had Your F***ing Back, But We Ain’t Got Your Back No More!’] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> Not only did the DC police, under orders from corrupt DC Democrat mayor [[Muriel Bowser]], act in dereliction of their duty by refusing to stop the rioting punks, but several corrupt officers stood up for the punks by illegally attacking and macing the Trump supporters when they tried to protect the elderly attack victim, prompting one of the pro-Trump protesters, a Marine, to angrily denounce the DC police while other Trump supporters in the crowd called the corrupt cops traitors.

*[[ABC]] News political director Rick Klein let out his inner Nazi on Twitter when he spoke about how the Democrats should "cleanse" America of Trump supporters, akin to the [[Holocaust]] perpetrated by the Nazis during WWII, in the wake of the Antifa-staged riots inside the US Capitol which were falsely attributed by the liberal media to pro-Trump supporters.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/political-director-abc-news-talks-cleansing-america-trump-supporters/ Political Director Of ABC News Talks About ‘Cleansing’ America Of Trump Supporters] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> True to form for a cowardly leftist lacking the courage of his convictions, Klein later deleted his post following heavy criticism, but not before it was screencapped by critics of the comment, including conservative commentator Sebastian Gorka.<ref>[https://twitter.com/SebGorka/status/1347270807123341313 Sebastian Gorka: "Didn’t fascists “cleanse” their enemies?

*Corrupt [[Portland, Oregon|Portland]] Democrat mayor [[Ted Wheeler]], long a supporter of Antifa and enabler of the hate group's violent attacks and rioting in that city, found himself victimized by the very group he had supported when Antifa punks invaded a restaurant Wheeler was dining at, harassed him and punched him in the face.<ref>[https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1347240792168005635 Andy Ngo: "BLM-antifa extremists confronted Portland mayor Ted Wheeler while he was dining out last night.

*Masked Antifa punks in riot gear who marched through [[New York City]] claiming to "own" its streets and public space<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/motherfckin-streets-antifa-terrorists-march-nyc-riot-gear-media-silent-video/ “Our Motherf*ckin Streets!” Antifa Terrorists March Through NYC in Riot Gear – Media Silent] at the Gateway Pundit ('''Warning:''' Contains videos with foul language)</ref> viciously assaulted a female journalist and hypocritically called her a "Nazi" (ignoring that they were behaving exactly like Nazis themselves) while corrupt NYPD officers, acting in dereliction of their duty, did nothing to stop the assault.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/blm-antifa-thugs-violently-attack-female-journalist-nyc-police-stand-nothing-video/ BLM-Antifa Thugs Violently Attack Female Journalist in NYC – Police Stand by and Do Nothing] at the Gateway Pundit ('''Warning:''' Contains video with violence and foul language)</ref> Not surprisingly, the [[liberal media]] ignored the incident and had nothing to say about it.
*Michael Beller, the chief legal counsel for liberal "educational" TV network [[PBS]], was fired from his position after it became publicly known via [[Project Veritas]] that he advocated the kidnapping of [[MAGA]] supporters' children to be incarcerated in [[gulag]]s and attacking the [[Trump]] [[White House]] with [[Molotov cocktail]]s, as well as celebrating the deaths of voters in [[Republican]]-run states which he claimed were due to the [[CCP flu]] "pandemic", all as part of a profane anti-conservative and anti-American rant to an undercover reporter.<ref>Multiple references:

While the usual Twitter suspects rooted Griffin on, a number of later posters gave her well-deserved criticism for her illegal actions. Due to the excessive harassment from the leftist cowards spurred on by Griffin, McCarty was forced to delete her Twitter account.

A liberal judge subsequently released both assailants, Jackson under supervision and Benn on his own recognizance.

*The usual Antifa and BLM suspects tried to stir up trouble at a restaurant in [[Louisville]], Kentucky (with one of the rioting punks even being armed with a firearm), but the restaurant's patrons were having none of it as they stood up to the rioters and their childish nonsense.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/05/blm-antifa-rioters-target-upscale-restaurant-louisville-kentucky-heroic-patrons-refuse-bow-tell-mob-bring-go/ BLM-Antifa Rioters Target Upscale Restaurant in Louisville, Kentucky, At Least One Protester Is Armed! – Restaurant Patron Pulls a Pistol!] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> In typical fashion for them, the cowardly rioters backed off and left the scene when faced with retaliation.

[[File:NPR logo.png|thumb|right|200px]]
'''National Public Radio''' (NPR) is a non-profit organization which produces and broadcasts various [[radio]] programs including news, talk shows, and entertainment. As a [[government]] [[propaganda]] organ, it was created out of the [[Great Society]] programs of [[President Lyndon Johnson]]. The audience of NPR listeners has grown exponentially since the organization's inception in 1970. Currently, NPR reports that 26 million [[Americans]] tune in each week.<ref>https://www.npr.org/about/growth.html</ref> Not only does NPR boast a large weekly audience, it also produces the two most listened-to radio programs on public radio: ''[[Morning Edition]]'' and ''[[All Things Considered]]''. A November 2005 poll claimed NPR to be the most trusted radio-broadcast news network in the [[United States]].<ref>http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6282871.html?display=Breaking+News&referral=SUPP</ref>

NPR, along with [[PBS]], has been accused of tailoring its [[fake news]] broadcasts toward a liberal point of view, making it little different than the [[mainstream media]] it claims to compete against. According to NPR, "NPR supports its operations through a combination of membership dues and programming fees from over 860 independent radio stations, sponsorship from private foundations and corporations, and revenue from the sales of transcripts, books, CDs, and merchandise. A very small percentage -- between one percent to two percent of NPR's annual budget -- comes from competitive grants sought by NPR from federally funded organizations, such as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, National Science Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts."<ref>NPR.org, ''Annual Reports, Audited Financial Statements, and Form 990s'', retrieved 28 March 2009 [https://www.npr.org/about/privatesupport.html]</ref>

On January 6, 2021, NPR photojournalist Jade Sacker was embedded with [[BLM]] [[terrorist]] [[John Sullivan]] in the [[leftist]] assault on the [[U.S. Capitol]].

'''Minnesota''' (from the Dakota "Mini sota") is located in the Midwestern region of the [[United States]] and on May 11, 1858 became the thirty-second state to enter into the union. During the [[American Civil War]] Minnesota supported the Union Army. The capital of Minnesota is [[Saint Paul (city)|Saint Paul]] and the largest city is [[Minneapolis]]. These cities are sometimes referred to as the [[Twin cities|Twin Cities]], due to their close proximity. The current governor of Minnesota is [[Tim Walz]].

President [[Donald Trump]] did well in Minnesota in 2016, but could not quite carry this [[liberal]] State.

The state Constitution of Minnesota, like all of the other 50 states, acknowledges God or our Creator or the ''Sovereign Ruler of the Universe''. It says:
:''We, the people of the state of Minnesota, grateful to God for our civil and religious liberty, and desiring to perpetuate its blessings and secure the same to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution.''

==Climate==
Minnesota's climate ranges from hot, humid summers to cold, snowy winters. The state experiences all four seasons distinctly. Severe weather ranges from thunderstorms, hail and occasional tornadoes during the mid-spring and summer to subzero temperatures, heavy snowfalls and blizzards during the late-fall, winter and early-spring.

==Geography==
Minnesota is nicknamed the "Land of 10,000 Lakes" due to its large number of natural freshwater lakes. The nickname is not an exaggeration as the actual number of lakes is about 11,842. The southern third and western edge of the state have very few lakes, but the rest of the state is dotted with small (less than 50 acres) to very large (over 100,000 acres) lakes only a few miles apart at most. The largest lake entirely within the state is Red Lake in Beltrami County, which is divided by a natural peninsula into Upper Red Lake and Lower Red Lake. The lake is 288,831 acres, or about 451.3 sq. miles, in size. The estimated total miles of shoreline of all of Minnesota's lakes is greater than the shorelines of California, Florida and Hawaii combined. As a result of this large number of lakes, Minnesota has a booming resort business, with over 1000 resorts of various kinds spread throughout the state. Year-round fishing is also a major draw for residents and visitors.

Excluding the southern border, a large portion of Minnesota's borders are defined by rivers and lakes. Big Stone Lake, Lake Traverse and the Red River compose most of the state's western border with North and South Dakota. The northern border with Canada is primarily defined by the Rainy River and Rainy Lake. Finally, the eastern border with Wisconsin includes Lake Superior and the St. Croix and Mississippi rivers.

The Mississippi River's headwaters are located at Lake Itasca in northern Minnesota.

==Politics of Minnesota==
Minnesota has been historically a [[Democratic]] state. They have not gone Republican in a Presidential election since [[Richard Nixon]] in 1972. However, in the 2010 elections, Republicans won a majority of both chambers of the Minnesota Legislature for the first time since 1970. The 2008 Republican National Convention was held in Saint Paul, Minnesota. [[Marxist]] protesters attempted to shut it down, blocking streets and disrupting [[public transportation]].
[[File:HHH.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hubert Humphrey booted Fannie Lou Hamer out of the 1964 [[Democrat Convention]] and seated the all-white Mississippi delegation. He was rewarded with the VP spot.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07PwNVCZCcY Fannie Lou Hamer's Powerful Testimony], American Experience, [[PBS]]. youtube.</ref> In 1968 HHH was nominated as the Democrat presidential candidate despite never having appeared on any ballot in any primary.]]
Minnesota is the only state in the Union in which the national Democratic Party actually is represented by the state-level [[Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party]] (DFL). All Democratic politicians in and from Minnesota work under the DFL header, though since the loss of manufacturing jobs to [[China]] and growth of [[agribusiness]] this now is more an issue of tradition than actual meaning.

In the 1960s and 1970s, at the height of the [[Civil Rights movement]], Minnesota produced two [[Vice President]]s of the United States who also became [[Democratic party]] presidential nominees, [[Hubert Humphrey]] and [[Walter Mondale]]. Both Humphrey and Mondale denied Blacks [[equal protection]] and made a mockery of the [[civil rights movement]].<ref>https://www.minnpost.com/eric-black-ink/2011/05/sad-story-humphreys-role-1964-democratic-convention/</ref>

[[President Lyndon Johnson]] held a private meeting at the 1964 Democratic Convention with Humphrey, Mondale, Roy Wilkins, [[Andrew Young]], [[United Auto Workers]] President [[Walter Reuther]] and [[Martin Luther King Jr.]] A plan was hatched to offer the Mississippi Freedom Democrats two non-voting ''At-Large'' seats with observer status, rather than replace the all-white delegation which had been undemocratically and illegally elected.<ref>Mills, Kay, ''This Little Light of Mine: The Life of Fannie Lou Hamer,'' (New York: Plume, 1994), p. 5.</ref> President Johnson arrogated to himself the right to pick which two, and Johnson chose one white and one black. Johnson dispatched Humphrey and Mondale and ordered them to make sure that “that illiterate woman," Fannie Lou Hamer, a black civil rights activist, would never be a delegate. Dr. King protested, and was told by Reuther to shut up. The offer was rejected, but Humphrey and Mondale remained powerhouse liberals in the Democratic party for another 20 years.

Hubert Humphrey, the 1968 Democratic challenger to Richard Nixon for the presidency said of the [[Rev. Jim Jones]], a community [[activist]] and [[community organizer|organizer]],
{{quotebox|"It is always good to hear that the spirit of the American people is still as vibrant and generous as ever. Pastor Jones seems to be a credit to your community, and I hope his good works continue to play an important power in the continued well-being of your area. Citizen power has always been one of my watchwords, and I’m glad to see it in action. The work of Reverend Jones and his congregation is testimony to the positive and truly Christian approach to dealing with the myriad problems confronting our society today.”}}

The Peoples Temple was a [[progressive movement]] for social change based on [[identity politics]]. Its leader, the Rev. Jones, led the group of primarily [[African American]] progressive Democrats and communists, in a mass [[suicide]] in [[Guyana]] in 1979. Over 900 people were either [[murder]]ed by the [[leftist]] group or committed suicide.

Minnesota Sen. Walter Mondale, then Democrat Vice Presidential candidate, met with the Rev. Jim Jones during the 1976 campaign.<ref>When Deputy Minister Ptolemy Reid traveled to Washington, D.C. in September 1977 to sign the [[Panama Canal Treaties]], Mondale asked him, "How's Jim?", which indicated to Reid that Mondale had a personal interest in Jones' well being, p. 173.

President Forbes Burnham of Guyana was a [[communist]]. Burnham stated that Guyana allowed the [[Peoples Temple]] to operate based on the personal recommendations made by Mondale, First Lady Rosalyn Carter and San Francisco Democrat Mayor George Moscone.

===Election fraud===
:{{See also|Democrat election fraud}}
In 2008 DNC henchman [[Marc Elias]] represented [[Al Franken]] in Minnesota. The recount may have been decided by convicted [[felon]]s who voted illegally. A study conducted by Minnesota Majority watchdog group found that at least 341 convicted felons in largely Democratic [[Minneapolis]]-[[St. Paul (City)|St. Paul]] voted illegally in the 2008 Senate race. The felons were registered by [[ACORN]].

The final recount determined six months after the election showed Franken beat Coleman by 312 votes -- '''''fewer votes than the number of felons whose illegal ballots were counted''''' which matched publicly available conviction lists with voting records. Even though it could be determined that felons illegally voted, there was no way to determine ''how'' they voted with a secret ballot. Once their votes were mixed in with the total, there is no way to separate them out. The same loophole can be used for non-citizens' voting. This is what is meant by the slogan, "Count every vote."

The watchdog group took the voting lists and matched them with conviction lists, then went to the voting roster lists, where voters sign in before voting, and matched them.<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/07/12/felons-voting-illegally-franken-minnesota-study-finds/ Felons Voting Illegally May Have Put Franken Over the Top in Minnesota, Study Finds]</ref>

[[Ann Coulter]] said,
{{quotebox|"He stole the 2008 election in Minnesota, going from a thousand votes down the day after the election to 300 votes up a few months later, after vast numbers of Franken votes kept being discovered in heavily Democratic districts. As economist [[John Lott]] pointed out at the time, the magically appearing votes for Franken were a statistical impossibility."<ref>http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2013-10-30.html</ref>}}

====2020 election fraud====
:{{See also|2020 Democrat election fraud}}
On Nov. 2, 2020, one day before the [[2020 presidential election]] a retired construction worker, developer, and land investor signed a sworn affidavit. The person witnessed “a busload of severely mentally handicapped people who were forced by handlers to vote for [[Joe Biden]].” In great detail, the witness describes being at the Sherburne county office and standing right next to a line of severely mentally handicapped people who were there for early voting, and watching them being taken, one by one, up to vote, with someone else (caretaker/handler) holding their hand and forcing them to make voting choices. The witness notes that “the caretakers were the ones making the voting choices for these handicapped people.” They literally held the handicapped person’s hand in theirs and marked the ballot for them. The witness was close enough to see they were forced to vote for Joe Biden, and indicated that many of them could not even hold a pen by themselves and appeared unable to make voting decisions.<ref>https://uncoverdc.com/2020/12/03/minnesota-witness-mentally-handicapped-individuals-forced-to-vote-for-biden/</ref>

In 2011, Minnesota resident Jim Stene voted in the presidential election and thought he was casting his ballot for [[Gerald Ford]]. Stene, who suffers from anoxic encephalopathy, a severe brain damage caused by a lack of oxygen to the brain, was living in a group home in Brainerd, MN. He and other residents of the home were taken to the Crow Wing county auditor’s office on Oct. 29 to vote by absentee ballot. Stene’s father charged in an affidavit that “a voter crime was committed . . . because James is mentally incompetent and is very coachable.” He feared his son, and many others like him, could be used to swing elections across the nation. A Brainerd resident said he witnessed the group home residents voting and said it appeared “they had no idea what was going on.” He accused the group home staff of “forcing the vote, and they were telling them who to vote for, actually using candidates’ names.”

===2020 Democrat Farm Labor riots===

:{{See also|DFL riots}}
Gov. Tim Walz allowed the city of [[Minneapolis]] to be burnt down by his voter base before calling in the [[National Guard]] to defend lives and property. A [[Twin Cities]] resident wrote to the ''Pioneer Press/Dispatch'':
{{quotebox|The fact is [[George Floyd]] was killed in Minneapolis, by a Minneapolis policeman. He was not killed by a [[federal]] agent in a community of [[white supremacist]]s.

Minneapolis has been dominated by [[Democrat]] mayors for more than 40 years. If systemic [[racism]] exists in the Minneapolis police force it has been enabled by Democrat leaders for more than 40 years. Make no mistake, Gov. Walz, Mayor Frey, Attorney General Ellison, Police Chief Arradondo, [[Ilhan Omar|Rep. Omar]], Sens. [[Klobuchar]] and [[Tina Smith|Smith]] – you own this situation. You have all run on platforms promising you would rid our community of this type of heinous behavior.

Liberal politicians’ show their [[cynicism]] when, while in control for decades, they express their outrage that racism is a systemic problem in the police department of our largest city. Each of these leaders has expressed support for the protesters, as if they are sympatico with their cause. Where is the self-awareness? These people are not supporting your leadership, they are protesting against your failure to deal with systemic racism while you are empowered to make real change.

Tim Walz is our governor; not [[George Wallace]]

[[Jacob Frey]] is the mayor; not [[Lester Maddox]]

[[Keith Ellison]] is attorney general; not [[Jeff Sessions]]

[[Amy Klobuchar]] is our U.S. senator; not [[Strom Thurmond]]

Medaria Arradondo is police chief; not Bull Connor

Enough of the empty accolades for the protesters. Don’t pretend you are in agreement with their cause. Your actions, while in power to make real change, demonstrate otherwise. The correct response on your part is not to insult the community with feigned emotion, your responsibility was to prevent this from happening. You have all failed miserably.<ref>https://www.twincities.com/2020/06/04/letters-you-own-this-minneapolis-and-minnesota-democrats/</ref>}}
Gov. Walz estimated the cost of the damage to more than 1,500 businesses in Minneapolis and St. Paul at over $500 million. Walz stood idly by while looters and rioters burned businesses and neighborhoods to the ground. Walz did nothing and continued to do nothing as public property and monuments were defaced and destroyed. As his own citizens begged for protection, Walz turned a blind eye to liberal [[Democrat]] [[socialist]] [[terrorism]] while forcing taxpayers to shut down their places of business and churches because of “COVID concerns.”<ref>https://www.redstate.com/kiradavis/2020/07/03/866680/</ref>

===2011 Government Shutdown===
The state government of Minnesota shut down on July 1, 2011, due to DFL politicians' unwillingness to compromise on taxes and spending, despite the GOP's best efforts to avert a crisis with a compromise measure. Governor Mark Dayton, in particular, held a rigid line on taxes, and compromised only when it became clear how much the shutdown was hurting ordinary Minnesotans.

The shutdown ended July 20, 2011, with a spending bill negotiated by the GOP, DFLers, and Dayton.

'''Rhode Island''' is the smallest U.S. state in land area (48 miles long by 37 miles wide<ref>http://www.visitrhodeisland.com/regions/index.aspx</ref>) and one of the original thirteen colonies. Its area is 1,214 square miles, less than one-seventh the size of [[New Jersey]].

Its official name is actually "The State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations."<ref>http://www.sec.state.ri.us/library/riinfo/riinfo/knowrhode</ref> So, even though it is the smallest state in the [[United States]], it has the longest name.

'''[[Providence]]''', the capital of Rhode Island, was founded by [[Roger Williams]]. It was the first government in the world to be founded on the principles of religious liberty, and separation of church and state. This was very different from the situation in Boston, which was ruled by the [[Puritan]] [[theocracy]]. [[Quaker]]s, for example, were welcome in Rhode Island but not permitted in [[Boston]]. For a while the Quakers controlled the colony of Rhode Island, and took an active part in [[King Phillips War]].

The state Constitution of Rhode Island, like all of the other 50 states, acknowledges God or our Creator or the ''Sovereign Ruler of the Universe''. It says:
:''We, the people of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, grateful to Almighty God for the civil and religious liberty which He hath so long permitted us to enjoy, and looking to Him for a blessing upon our endeavors to secure and to transmit the same, unimpaired, to succeeding generations, do ordain and establish this Constitution of government.''

World Trade Center

2021-05-15T05:42:14Z

Evadetyranny19: /* 9/11 */

[[File:World Trade Center pre 911.jpg|thumb|200px|New York Skyline before 9/11]]
The original '''World Trade Center''' included two 110-story towers at the southern tip of [[Manhattan]] constructed in the late 1960s and early 1970s by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey,<ref>http://www.wtc.com/about/wtc-origins</ref> at the insistence of [[Nelson Rockefeller|Nelson]] and David Rockefeller. They were unique in their government ownership for the purpose of leasing to private companies engaging in world trade. Yet few of the tenants were actually trade organizations, and instead the offices were filled mostly with investment banks and large law firms.

The WTC was a government project that was supposed to cost $350 million, but by its completion more than a decade later actually cost at least double that. It lost money through the 1970s and probably never recouped the value of its investment and expenses. It never became fully occupied until the
dot-com boom of the 1990s, and it was the internet industry, not world trade, that filled it. Promoted to the public as government-promoted export-import, only five percent of the WTC leases were held by trade service and export-import tenants.

By comparison, the privately developed Sears Tower was built around the same time at a cost of only about $150 million—only one-fifth the cost of the WTC—and took only three years to complete compared to the ten years for the WTC.

Evadetyranny19: /* Background */

[[Image:1993attack.jpg|right|thumb|Damage Done By 1993 Truck Bombing]]
The '''1993 World Trade Center bombing''' was an attack on the [[World Trade Center]] which killed 6 and injured 1,042.

==Background==
The WTC became a symbol of American capitalism and economic dominance, and therefore a vulnerable target for [[Islamic terrorism|Islamic terrorists]]. On February 26, 1993, Islamic terrorists detonated a massive truck bomb in an underground parking lot with the goal of knocking the towers over and killing its capacity of 25,000 workers. The attack severely damaged the Vista Hotel, which had to be renovated. Inside the building, people smashed windows for fresh air. The smoke left the entrance of the hotel. About 1,000 were injured inside the building, either from smoke inhalation, or injury from the blast. Six people were killed by the attack. The terrorists' goal of destroying the towers failed, and a memorial was placed in the plaza but was destroyed during the September 11th attacks.

[[File:Spygate.jpg|350px|right|thumb|The Obama administration was wracked by the [[Spygate]] scandal from its earliest days, first by misusing the IRS to harass political opponents, then when discovered it shifted to illegal electronic surveillance of political opponents through [[FISA abuse|abuse of the FISA database]], courts, law enforcement and intelligence community.]]
The '''Obama Administration''' was the executive branch of the federal government under [[Democratic Party|Democrat]] [[Presidents of the United States|President]] [[Barack Hussein Obama|Barack Obama]] and Vice President [[Joe Biden]].

It began on January 20, 2009, for a term of four years, and then for a second four-year term that ended on January 20, 2017 during much of what has come to be known as '''The Lost Decade''' due to stagnant economic growth and widespread [[poverty]] as a result of its attempt to implement [[Socialism]] and an [[authoritarian]] [[police state]].

A Republican revival took form as the party won gubernatorial elections in Virginia and New Jersey, and the Democrats continued in disarray in New York, Texas and California. Even more dramatic was the win by Republican [[Scott Brown]] of the Senate seat held by the late [[Edward M.

By the Spring of Obama's second year, only 38% of voters surveyed said Obama deserves re-election, with 55% wanting someone new.

==2013–2017: Second term==
Obama entered his second term mocking and ridiculing the idea that Russia was America's prime geo-strategic competitor; by the closing days of his presidency, Obama was in a panic fanning the flames of a Third Red Scare. Vladimir Putin and Russia had thoroughly embarrassed Barack Obama on the world stage as Obama withdrew America from its traditional role of global leadership and repudiated the idea of [[American exceptionalism]]. Respect for America degenerated in the world as issues such as transexual bathrooms occupied more of Obama's time and attention than the 12 million homeless refugees Obama had driven from their homes in his failed "[[Arab Spring]]" policy. Having been thoroughly rebuked politically with the election of Donald Trump, as a [[lameduck]] Obama attempted to coverup [[DNC]] scandals uncovered by [[Wikileaks]] by scapegoating Vladimir Putin and fostering an atmosphere of paranoia about Russia, the future, and a Trump presidency.

===U.S. sovereignty===
{{See also|Barack Hussein Obama#Opposition to U.S. sovereignty|War on Sovereignty}}
Preferring international cooperation and equality to American [[sovereignty]] and independence (despite the U.S.'s obviously superior geopolitical position), Obama intentionally reduced American power and strength during his second term. In 2016, his administration gave up the nation's control of [[Domain name|internet domain name system]] and transfer control over to an international organization.<ref>Solomon, Howard (October 3, 2016).

Also during his second term, Obama entered the U.S. into the [[Paris climate agreement]] and attempted to have it join the [[Trans-Pacific Partnership]], which was under negotiation. Both of these agreements would have reduced American sovereignty and [[self-governance]]. Obama also endorsed the United Nations 2030 Agenda in 2015, which called for "a 'new universal agenda' for all of humanity" and served as a major step toward a [[one-world government]].<ref>Hohmann, Leo (September 30, 2015).

The Obama administration initially followed what fiscal conservatives and libertarians call [[Obama administration fiscal policy|ruinous fiscal policies]] and [[Obama administration monetary policy|reckless monetary policies]].

===Background===
Following the [[Recession of 2008]] Obama declared that failure to pass his [[Economic stimulus]] would turn a "crisis into a catastrophe," and promised [[Unemployment]] would not rise above 7.8%.<ref>[http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,1910208,00.html Obama's Stimulus Plan: Failing by Its Own Measure,] Stephen Gandel, ''[[Time magazine]]'', July 14, 2009.</ref><ref>[http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31165217/ Obama promises economic relief this summer], [[MSNBC|MSNBC/AP]], 6/8/2009.</ref> The House on Jan. 28 passed a stimulus package‎ of $819 billion in [[Direct spending#New spending|new spending]] and tax increases, despite unanimous Republican opposition. A revised bill passed the Senate with three Republican votes. A compromise bill, known as the "[[American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009]]," was passed, providing for $789 billion in new spending and stimulus.

Detroit spread gloom on Feb. 17 as GM starkly warned of impending bankruptcy unless it gets more aid. By August, both Chrysler and GM had entered bankruptcy, and come out again in much smaller size, as they closed a fourth of their dealerships, slashed wage rates, and repaid creditors with 29 cents on the dollar. The government gave Chrysler away free to Fiat of Italy, which acquired ownership without investing any money. Meanwhile, the part makers, which employ more workers than the Big Three automakers, verged on disaster and begged for billions. The "[[cash for clunkers]]" proved to be a boondoggle for the rich at a cost of $3 billion to the Treasury.

===The public rejects socialism===
In the view of 51 mostly conservative economists polled by the ''Wall Street Journal'' in July 2009, the Obama administration's economic program is problematic. President Obama and Treasury Secretary Geithner both got an average grade of 70 out of 100 for their handling of the financial crisis, but those grades varied widely.<ref>Obama scored 59 in March 2009, Geithner 51, and Bernanke 71.

[[Image:Stim1.jpg|thumb|380px|Cartoonist Chuck Asay summarizes the debate]]

The economists were pessimistic, predicting the economy would shed another 2.8 million jobs over the next 12 months after the president's program was passed.<ref>The unemployment rate climbed to 9.5% in June 2009, then hit 10,2% in October, as the GDP fell at an alarming -6.4% annual rate in the first quarter of 2009.</ref> Economists see a one-in-six chance that the U.S. will fall into a depression, defined as a decline in per-person GDP or consumption by 10% or more. They gave equally poor marks to the efforts of other countries to end the recession.

The economists, however, were broadly supportive of the Federal Reserve. Over 85% agreed that its proliferating lending programs are well-designed, well-executed and helping the economy.

In June 2009 public opinion was favorable toward Obama personally but increasingly dubious about his plans to overhaul health care, bail out the auto industry and close the prison at Guantánamo Bay. With a positive job approval rating of 63%, Mr. Obama had the backing of Democrats and independents alike, with only 23% of Republicans expressing approval. Support for Obama's foreign policies and terrorism policies originally was high at 57-59%.

'''FY 2010 Budget'''
[[Image:Budget-cbo.jpg|thumb|250px|left]]
The Democratic-controlled Congress by a party-line vote in late April passed the budget Obama proposed in late February. It called for $3.4 trillion in [[Direct spending#New spending|new spending]], not counting the $787 billion in stimulus spending approved in February, nor the trillions in loan guarantees to banks. The 2010 budget allocated $1.2 trillion for defense, and an additional $130 billion for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Nondefense spending increased by 8% or $40 billion. The budget allowed the Obama health plan, which had not yet been written, to move through Congress on a fast track with no risk of a filibuster.

The Tax Foundation says that 44% of all tax filers have no tax liability and most of those will get a check from the government, especially from the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)<ref>EITC is a conservative idea first proposed by Milton Friedman, enacted under Republican presidents Ford and Reagan.</ref> and credits for college tuition and child care. The ''[[Wall Street Journal]]'' noted about Obama's plan that, "Once upon a time we called this 'welfare'".<ref>[http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122385651698727257.html Obama's 95% Illusion] [[Wall Street Journal]]</ref>

The Budget assumed a federal deficit of $1.75 trillion for 2009, or 12.3% of GDP—the highest deficit in percentage terms since World War II. The budget reordered priorities to provide national health care and raise federal spending on schools.
[[File:Obama deficits 2009-2010.JPG|thumb|330px]]
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated the Obama plans would raise the national debt far more than Obama admitted. The CBO says the Obama plan would cause total deficits over the next ten years of $9.3 trillion, compared to Obama's estimate of "only" 7 trillion. The annual GDP, by contrast, was about $15 trillion.<ref>Jackie Calmes, "New Deficit Forecast Casts Shadow on Obama Agenda," [https://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/21/washington/21deficit.html?th&emc=th ''[[The New York Times]]'' Mar. 20, 2009]</ref> Senator Judd Gregg said that Obama's budget would double the national debt in five years and triple it in ten.<ref>[https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2009/mar/25/judd-gregg/judd-gregg-says-obamas-budget-doubles-national-deb/ Judd Gregg says Obama's budget doubles the national debt in five years] [[PolitiFact]]</ref>

Obama proposed a carbon [[cap and trade]] system, increasing taxes for families and businesses. The cost to energy consumers would be an additional $645 billion between 2012 and 2019, which will result in higher prices. Rep. John Boehner said, "Let's just be honest and call it a carbon tax that will increase taxes on all Americans who drive a car, who have a job, who turn on a light switch, pure and simple."<ref>[http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123566843777484625.html Carbon Trading to Raise Consumer Energy Prices] [[Wall Street Journal]]</ref>

The chairman of the Senate Budget Committee was conservative Democrat [[Kent Conrad]] of [[North Dakota]], a deficit hawk who said he was "very uncomfortable with the build-up of debt" and urged Obama to make good on his promise to overhaul federal retirement and health-care programs. Conrad called for "more discipline on the spending side."<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/02/28/AR2009022801960.html?hpid=topnews Battle Lines Quickly Set Over Planned Policy Shifts] ''[[Washington Post]]'' Mar. 1, 2009</ref>

The Obama Administration based its domestic policies on the assumption of a rapid economic recovery generating the tax revenue needed to fund [[Direct spending|permanent new spending]] program for [[Obamacare]] and "greening the economy". Administration forecasts were more starry-eyed than private sector forecasts. Both parties agree that stimulus spending is needed to deal with the recession but Congress is unlikely to approve permanent new spending programs unless the economy improves, since a large number of conservative Democrats were elected who may vote with Republicans to keep down spending and deficits.<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/28/business/economy/28recession.html?_r=1&th&emc=th Sharper Downturn Clouds Obama Spending Plans], Peter S.

'''FY 2011 Budget'''
Obama's first two budget deficits (FY 2009 and FY 2010) were more than $1 trillion, or 9% of [[GDP]]. The [[Democrat]]ic Congress failed to pass, and President Obama did not sign, a budget for fiscal year 2011, as required by law. But the administration continued spending anyway with a deficit projected to be at least another $1 trillion again for 2011. Combined with a shrinking economy, the publicly held federal debt increased by over 20% of GDP in Obama's first two years, and was projected to increase by another 7% in 2011. Experts warned the President that deficits of this size were not sustainable in the long run because the federal debt cannot indefinitely grow faster than economic output. Eventually, a greater and greater share of national income would be devoted to interest payments, until eventually the government would be forced to finance the debt through money creation ([[inflation]]) or [[default]].

The President emphasized his proposal to freeze for three years non-defense [[discretionary spending]]. Economist Martin Feldstein observed the president's plan would not apply to [[backdoor spending]]: increases in [[mandatory spending]] programs and [[tax ependiture]]s—new tax rules that substitute for increased government spending,<ref>[http://www.nber.org/feldstein/wsj02182010.html How Obama Should Shrink His Deficit], Martin Feldstein, ''[[Wall Street Journal]]'', February 18, 2010.

"The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projects that Obamacare’s refundable health insurance tax credits and Medicaid expansion will increase the nation’s debt burden by $1.36 trillion in the first seven years that these provisions are fully implemented...85 percent of filers who claim the credit will end the year with zero or negative income tax liability. Since the tax credit is refundable, nearly all 11.3 million of these filers will have negative income tax liability and will no longer pay the cost of government by contributing federal income taxes....For example, a family of four at 200 percent of the [Federal Poverty Level] (about $48,677 in 2016) cannot pay more than 6.3 percent of their income for health insurance...The CBO estimates that the average cost of the reference insurance plan (the plan used to calculate the tax credit) will be $14,100 for family coverage in 2016. Therefore, a family of four that qualifies for a credit in 2016 and that makes $48,677 would be required to pay about $3,067 for health insurance (6.3 percent of household income). The difference, $11,033, is the value of this family’s refundable tax credit...According to the CBO, 20 million Americans will receive health insurance tax credits in 2020 at a cost of $130 billion."</ref>

'''FY 2012 Budget'''
Obama was roundly criticized for ignoring recommendations of his own Deficit Reduction Commission in his proposed 2012 Budget.<ref>[http://www.askheritage.org/where-does-obamas-budget-proposal-fall-short/ Where does Obama’s budget proposal fall short?] [[Heritage Foundation]]</ref> Obama's proposals did nothing to address the burgeoning budget deficit responsible for lagging job creation and the persistent [[unemployment]] which has become the hallmark of his time in office.<ref>[http://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D9MOJ3VG0.htm Obama's deficit plans run into economic reality] [[Associated Press]]</ref> In response to [[Republican]] counter-proposals, rather than address substantive issues of reform, Obama descended into ''[[ad hominem]]'' attacks against advocates of improving the delivery of government services.<ref>https://www.mcclatchydc.com/2011/04/24/112725/obama-paints-rep-ryan-as-the-gop.html</ref><ref>[http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2011/04/23/the_unhappy_president_109638.html The Unhappy President] [[RealClearPolitics]]</ref>

Rather, Obama proposed increasing spending, taxes, and debt to historic highs, and doubling the [[national debt]] over pre-[[2008 recession]] levels, with no significant proposal to reform the underlying problems. Obama's proposal failed to meet his own pledge to cut the deficit in half during his first term.<ref>Barack Obama, [https://www.whitehouse.gov/the_press_office/remarks-of-president-barack-obama-address-to-joint-session-of-congress “Address to Joint Session of Congress,”] February 24, 2009.

===Corporate cronyism and bailouts===
After spending over a trillion dollars in cash and guarantees (by Bush and Obama combined), the [[bailout]] of the financial system by October 2009 seemed to have rewarded the big banks but failed to stimulate the economy and job creation. Obama started to decline in the polls, as independents and Republicans became increasingly critical. A firestorm erupted in March when it was learned that AIG insurance company, now 80% government owned, was paying $165 million in bonuses to the traders that had caused $60 billion in losses. Geithner was appointed to the Treasury largely on the basis of his work at the New York Fed, where his most important action was to design the bailout of AIG. Under Geithner, AIG received $170 billion from the government.
[[Image:Toxic-assets.jpg|thumb|300px|left|Geithner plans to sell toxic assets to Wall Street]]
With major banks on the verge of failure, Treasury Secretary [[Timothy Geithner]] unveiled yet another massive bailout program in mid-February. Trillions would be spent to move toxic assets out of the banks, but few details were provided. The widespread reaction was very negative, and Geithner lost more of his credibility as a problem solver. Geithner finally came back with a plan on March 23 that did not need additional funding or approval by Congress. The Treasury used $100 billion from the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), as well as new capital from private investors, in order to generate $500 billion to buy toxic loans and assets. The program could potentially expand to $1 trillion over time. In June some of the major banks started to repay their federal loans.

[[Image:Jobs09q1.jpg|thumb|250px]] [[Image:Job-loss-09.jpg|thumb|250px|US job losses January 1-March 31, 2009]]

The Federal Reserve in June said conditions deteriorated in many regions of the country, with commercial real estate and labor markets in deep trouble. The Fed did not forecast a significant boost in economic activity in 2009. Despite costly government efforts to encourage borrowing, it remained very difficult for consumers and businesses to obtain loans.

The General Motors bailout, which Obama promised would make taxpayers money, resulted in an $11 billion loss;<ref>[http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/taxpayers-to-lose-at-least-11-billion-on-general-motors-bailout/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+OTB+%28Outside+The+Beltway+%7C+OTB%29 Taxpayers To Lose At Least $11 Billion On General Motors Bailout], Outside The Beltway</ref> however Democratic Congressional seats in the areas affected that received the aid, remained Democratic in the [[2010 Midterm elections]] despite the persistent high unemployment among workers who were not directly employed in the auto industry in those same districts.

===Obamacare===
{{Main|ObamaCare}}
With a monopoly on power in Obama's first two years, the Democratic Congress moved to create a government-run insurance program that would put private sector insurers out of business. Obama proposed funding the program with higher taxes "on wealthy Americans".<ref>[https://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-health-care26-2009feb26,0,1056744.story Obama plans 'down payment' on healthcare overhaul] [[Los Angeles Times]]</ref> The new law mandates private citizens to purchase health insurance under the threat of legal sanctions for non-compliance.<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/07/02/senate-fine-people-refusing-health-care-coverage/ Senate Bill Would Fine People More Than $1,000 for Refusing Health Care Coverage] [[Fox News]]</ref> Critics dubbed the law [[Gestapo care]].

Obama was unconvincing to most Americans. Few saw any advantage in his proposals, and everyone can see the monumental costs. Contrary to his campaign vows for openness and transparency in government, Obama cut closed door back room deals with big drug companies and insurers, and was not upfront with the American people. Polls show a steady decline in support for [[Obamacare]] as the public learned more about it. (By contrast, he had 57% approval on health issues in April 2009).<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/polls/postpoll_042609.html Washington Post-ABC News Poll ] ''[[Washington Post]]'' July 20, 2009</ref> Conservative Democrats in Congress—who call themselves "[[Blue Dog Democrats]]"—were reluctant to sign on to any proposal costing a trillion dollars over the next decade. The controversy lowered Obama's overall approval and was a major factor in the [[2010 Midterm elections]] which ousted the Democratic majority from the House.

===Education===
To the angst of liberal supporters, the administration's first proposals for school reform relied heavily on Bush-era ingredients and adds others that make unions gag. They include standardized testing, school accountability, performance pay, and charter schools—all of which are integral to Obama'a $4.35 billion "Race to the Top" grant competition to spur innovation. Liberals dislike all these new ideas. "It looks like the only strategies they have are charter schools and measurement," protested Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. "That's Bush III."<ref>See [https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/09/24/AR2009092403197.html Nick Anderson, "Unions Criticize Obama's School Proposals as 'Bush III'"], ''[[Washington Post]]'' Sept. 25, 2009</ref>

Obama and the Democrats successfully killed the Washington D.C. school voucher program which granted school choice to primarily poor African-American and minority families and children.<ref>[http://articles.cnn.com/2009-03-11/politics/martin.vouchers_1_vouchers-school-choice-democrats?_s=PM:POLITICS Commentary: Obama, Dems wrong to kill school vouchers] [[CNN]]</ref> After the 2010 Midterm elections the [[Republican]]s revived the program.<ref>http://www.bluecollarphilosophy.com/2011/03/republicans-care-more-about-poor-children-than-democrats-d-c-vouchers-restored-in-house-vote.html</ref>

The forced employer mandate, requiring companies to use the cash ordinarily used to expand employment and production, on their existing workforce, was a double whammy at a time [[China]] was siphoning manufacturing jobs from the United States. Homelessness abounded, particularly among young adults for the first time, unable to find employment even with a college degree. All this was used as a pretext for the [[Occupy Wall Street]] movement, blaming capitalist exploiters for actions impoverishing the country which the government itself had done.

{{See also|Barack Hussein Obama#Obama Administration and illegal immigration}}
The Obama Administration proposed "comprehensive immigration reform" which would tie together increased border protection, a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants already in the United States, and reform of the visa process. Although a bipartisan bill emerged in the Senate, immigration reform was never adopted by Congress.

===Censorship of journalists===
In April 2010 Obama Attn. Gen. Eric Holder renewed a subpoena of ''New York Times'' reporter James Risen in a [[leak]] investigation. Risen and a colleague reported on warrantless wiretaps. The coverage won Risen and colleague a [[Pulitzer Prize]] for “carefully sourced stories on secret domestic eavesdropping that stirred a national debate.” The Justice Dept. opened an investigation into the wiretap stories. John Brennan played a key role in the illegal wiretap program, overseeing the production of what personnel in the program called the “scary memos” intended to justify the domestic spying exposed by Risen. Brennan later admitted that he relied on information from CIA's torture program rather than domestic spying, which was used as a cover. In a frontpage May 13, 2004 story the torture program was exposed with Risen as the lead reporter.

In September an internal email entitled “Obama Leak Investigations” at “global intelligence” company Stratfor claimed Obama's then-White House adviser John Brennan was targeting [[journalist]]s.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20120925054433/http://wikileaks.org:80/gifiles/docs/1210665_obama-leak-investigations-internal-use-only-pls-do-not.html</ref><ref>https://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2013/05/22/wikileaks-stratfor-e-mail-brennan-behind-witch-hunt-of-journalists-reporting-leaks/</ref>

===Snowden revelations===
[[File:Full-spectrum-cyber-effects-final-p4-large.gif|right|300px|thumb|US Government document from 2010 part of the Snowden leaks and sharing agreements with the [[UK]]. The [[Five Eyes]] program of the English speaking world (United States, United Kingdom, [[Canada]], [[Australia]], and [[New Zealand]]) use [[social media]] for “[[propaganda]],” “[[deception]],” “mass messaging,” “pushing stories”, and "discrediting” the intelligence agencies' enemies with false information spread online.<ref>https://theintercept.com/document/2014/04/04/full-spectrum-cyber-effects/</ref>]]
One of the focal points of the documents [[Edward Snowden]] leaked is not so much the technical marvels of intelligence collectors, rather the existence of, and extent to which intelligence agencies worldwide share information through cooperative sharing agreements (also known as 'shell game eavesdropping' or 'third party relationships').<ref>https://theintercept.com/document/2014/03/13/third-party-relationships/%20/?Edi</ref> While the programs are billed as efforts to fight terrorism, international drug cartels, [[money laundering]], and safeguard [[national security]], they exist and function only on the basis of circumventing national laws in the respective countries whose agencies cooperate in the efforts.

Fort Meade, MD, for instance, home of the [[NSA]] which has the technical ability to monitor and spy on any American with an Obama phone or flat screen TV in their living room, cannot do so without [[probable cause]] or a [[warrant]]. So two employees of the UK's [[GCHQ]] in residence standby at the ready to man the helm and perform the operation ''legally'' under the guise of international intelligence sharing and national security.<ref>https://www.csmonitor.com/World/Europe/2013/0614/Another-US-UK-special-relationship-between-intelligence-services</ref>

While the United States possessed greater capacity and resources in surveillance technology, the United Kingdom was less scrupulous in violating privacy rights and civil rights and more aggressive in cyber attacks and the use of [[fake news]] to discredit and harass their political enemies, including domestic opponents. Under Obama, the marriage of passive [[surveillance]] and active cyber warfare against political opponents accelerated, with both the UK and US extending cooperative agreements and technology to other third party agencies [[globalism|globally]].

Snowden leaks reveal Britain's GCHQ and other European spy agencies work together to conduct mass surveillance. The files also make clear that GCHQ played a leading role in advising its European counterparts how to work around national laws intended to restrict the surveillance power of intelligence agencies. ''The Guardian'' article reports,<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/nov/01/gchq-europe-spy-agencies-mass-surveillance-snowden</ref>
{{Quotebox|It is clear from the Snowden documents that GCHQ has become Europe's intelligence hub in the internet age, and not just because of its success in creating a legally permissive environment for its operations. Britain's location as the European gateway for many transatlantic cables, and its privileged relationship with the NSA has made GCHQ an essential partner for European agencies. The documents show British officials frequently lobbying the NSA on sharing of data with the Europeans and haggling over its security classification so it can be more widely disseminated. In the intelligence world, far more than it managed in diplomacy, Britain has made itself an indispensable bridge between America and Europe's spies.}}

Training materials provided by Snowden for XKeyscore program detailed how analysts can use it and other systems to mine enormous NSA databases by filling in a simple on-screen form giving only a broad justification for the search. The request is not reviewed by a court or any NSA personnel before it is processed. The program covers "nearly everything a typical user does on the internet", including the content of emails, websites visited and searches, as well as their metadata. Under US law, the NSA is required to obtain an individualized [[FISA]] warrant only if the target of their surveillance is a 'US person', though no such warrant is required for intercepting the communications of Americans with foreign targets. But '''XKeyscore provides''' the technological capability, if not '''the legal authority, to target even US persons''' for extensive electronic surveillance '''without a warrant provided''' that some identifying information, such as '''their email or IP address, is known.'''

===Uranium One scandal===
:''Main article:'' [[Uranium One bribery scandal]]
According to court filings in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, in 2009, the [[FBI]] began an investigation into corruption and extortion by senior managers of Tenex, a subsidiary of Rosatom, a Russian entity.<ref>Government’s Response to Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss for Pre-Indictment Delay, United States v. Vadim Mikerin, Criminal No. TDC-14-0529 (D. MD) at 1. http://fcpa.stanford.edu/enforcement-action.html?id=583</ref> [[Robert Mueller]] was FBI Director at the time the investigation into the Rosatom subsidiary began.<ref>
http://www.newsweek.com/how-robert-mueller-connected-probe-hillary-clintons-uranium-one-deal-688548</ref>

The investigation began as an intelligence probe into Russian nuclear officials. Mueller's investigation also obtained an eyewitness, William Campell (known as CS-1 in court records) — backed by documents, recordings, and emails — indicating Russian nuclear officials routed millions of dollars to the U.S. designed to benefit former President [[Bill Clinton]]’s foundation during the time [[Secretary of State]] [[Hillary Clinton]] served on the [[Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States]] (CFIUS) a government body that provided the approval of the sale of Uranium One to Rosatom.<ref name="thehill.com">https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/355749-fbi-uncovered-russian-bribery-plot-before-obama-administration</ref>

The investigation found [[kickback]]s paid in cash and some in foreign wire transfers. From April 2009 to April 2011, the wire transfers went to Wiser Trading, registered in the [[Seychelles]]. From July 2011 to July 2013 - to the British Leila Global Limited account in a Latvian bank. And from August 2013 to May 2014 - to Ollins Development in the British Virgin Islands.

''The Hill'' reported that {{Quotebox|the FBI had gathered substantial evidence that Russian nuclear industry officials were engaged in bribery, kickbacks, extortion and money laundering designed to grow Vladimir Putin’s atomic energy business inside the United States, according to government documents and interviews.

Federal agents used a confidential U.S. witness working inside the Russian nuclear industry to gather extensive financial records, make secret recordings and intercept emails as early as 2009 that showed Moscow had compromised an American uranium trucking firm with bribes and kickbacks in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, FBI and court documents show.

They also obtained an eyewitness account — backed by documents — indicating Russian nuclear officials had routed millions of dollars to the U.S. designed to benefit former President Bill Clinton’s charitable foundation during the time Secretary of State Hillary Clinton served on a government body that provided a favorable decision to Moscow, sources told The Hill.

The racketeering scheme was conducted “with the consent of higher level officials” in Russia who “shared the proceeds” from the kickbacks, one agent declared in an affidavit years later.

Rather than bring immediate charges in 2010, however, the Department of Justice (DOJ) continued investigating the matter for nearly four more years, essentially leaving the American public and Congress in the dark about Russian nuclear corruption on U.S. soil during a period when the Obama administration made two major decisions benefiting Putin’s commercial nuclear ambitions...

Attorney General [[Eric Holder]] was among the Obama administration officials joining Hillary Clinton on the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States at the time the Uranium One deal was approved. Multiple current and former government officials told The Hill they did not know whether the FBI or DOJ ever alerted committee members to the criminal activity they uncovered.<ref name="thehill.com">https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/355749-fbi-uncovered-russian-bribery-plot-before-obama-administration</ref>}}

Mueller's investigation was centered in Maryland, Tenex's home base. There, the U.S. attorney was Obama appointee Rod Rosenstein — later appointed deputy attorney general. The Maryland District Court indictment of Tenex boss Vadim Mikerin and three others said that the FBI paid attention to suspicious financial transactions after a tip from William Campbell, or CS-1.<ref>http://compromatwiki.org/Ядерные_схемы_Вадима_Микерина</ref> Camphell said the FBI informed him President Obama was briefed while the investigation was ongoing.<ref>https://www.cnsnews.com/blog/michael-w-chapman/atty-toensing-uranium-scandal-obama-was-briefed-russian-bribery-kickback</ref>

In 2009, according to the prosecution, Mikerin asked Campbell for kickbacks for the right to sign a contract with Tenex for lobbying and consulting services, as well as assistance in public relations for the Russian nuclear industry. These payments, according to Campbell, Mikerin called the "system" or "window". Cambell was worried about this agreement and went to the FBI, where he was asked to continue to participate in the kickback scheme, giving the bureau all the information.

According to Campbell's testimony, he paid $460,000 as kickbacks. Moreover, the appetite of Tenex grew. For implementation of the first contract in 2009, Tenex was supposed to pay William's company $150,000 for three months, and Mikerin wanted a third of this sum as a kickback. Payments under the second contract were $550,000 for 11 months, and Mikerin required about half as a kickback. In 2011, Mikerin allegedly extended the contract for 11 months in the interests of Tenex.

Mikerin was arrested on a complaint describing a racketeering scheme that stretched back to 2004 and included [[extortion]], [[fraud]], and money laundering. Money-laundering carries a penalty of up to 20 years’ imprisonment — not only for [[conspiracy]] but for each act of money laundering (at section 1956 of the penal code). But Mikerin was permitted by Rod Rosenstein to plead guilty to an offense charged under the catch-all federal conspiracy provision (section 371) that criminalizes agreements to commit any crime against the United States. Section 371 prescribes a sentence of zero to five years’ imprisonment. The plea agreement shows that the Obama DOJ's Fraud Section was then run by Andrew Weissmann.
[[File:2015-08-07-d47f891b large.jpg|right|350px|thumb|Some of the details of the Uranium One deal and "the future of the energy industry" were worked out in a private meeting between Bill Clinton. Frank Giustra, and Kazatomprom President Moukhtar Dzhakishev in Chappaqua, New York on February 27, 2007. The 'Russian Reset' was necessary to complete the deal.]]
The Justice Department instructs prosecutors that when Congress has given a federal offense its own conspiracy provision with a heightened punishment (as it has for money laundering, racketeering, narcotics trafficking, and other serious crimes), they may not charge a section 371 conspiracy. Section 371 is for less serious conspiracy cases. Using it for money laundering — which caps the sentence below Congress's intent for that behavior — subverts federal law and signals to the court that the prosecutor does not regard the offense as major. Yet, that is exactly what Rosenstein's office did, in a plea agreement his prosecutors co-signed with attorneys from the Justice Department's Fraud Section. (See in ''The Hill''’s report, the third document embedded at the bottom, titled "Mikerin Plea Deal.") No RICO, no extortion, no fraud — and the plea agreement does not to mention any of the extortions in 2009 and 2010, before Committee on Foreign Investment (CFIUS) in the US approved Rosatom's acquisition of Uranium One. Mikerin just plead guilty to a nominal “money laundering” conspiracy charge, insulating him from a longer sentence. Thus, he got a term of only four years’ for a major [[national security]] crime.

Before Hillary Clinton could assume her post as [[Secretary of State]] in 2009, the White House demanded that she sign a memorandum of understanding placing limits on Bill Clinton's foundation activities. To avoid the perception of conflicts of interest, beyond the ban on foreign government donations, the foundation was required to publicly disclose all contributors. None of the Uranium One shareholders donations were disclosed after the Rosatom approval. These donations to the [[Clinton Foundation]] totaled some $130 million.<ref>Uranium One Chairman Ian Telfer alone donated through his private Fernwood Foundation $1 million in 2009, the year his company appealed to the U.S. Embassy to help it keep its mines in Kazakhstan; $250,000 in 2010, the year the Russians sought majority control; $600,000 in 2011; and $500,000 in 2012. Telfer’s undisclosed donations came in addition to between $1.3 million and $5.6 million in contributions, which were reported, from a constellation of people with ties to Uranium One or UrAsia, the company that originally acquired Uranium One’s most valuable asset: the Kazakhstan mines. 
Under Canadian law the identity of donors to a non-profit entity are are allowed anonymity. Giustra formed with Bill Clinton the Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership as part of the Clinton Foundation, which could receive anonymous donations. 
After the transfer of Uranium One to Rosatom, Giustra and others donated over $130 million to the Clinton Foundation.
https://www.clintonfoundation.org/our-work/clinton-giustra-enterprise-partnership</ref>
According to the ''[[New York Times]]'',
{{Quotebox|Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the [[Obama]] [[White House]] to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well. 
And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech ... The $500,000 fee — among Mr. Clinton’s highest — was paid by Renaissance Capital, a Russian [[investment bank]] with ties to the [[Kremlin]] ...Renaissance Capital analysts talked up Uranium One’s stock, assigning it a “buy” rating and saying in a July 2010 research report that it was “the best play” in the uranium markets....

The Department of Justice's National Security Division (NSD) reviewed this transaction in consultation with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and CFIUS agencies. In accordance with standard procedure, NSD evaluated the factors listed in section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, and ultimately communicated to CFIUS the Department's clearance of this transaction.<ref>https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2017-10-12%20CEG%20to%20OSTP%20(Uranium%20One%20Follow%20up).pdf p.2 fn.4.</ref> With the purchase of Uranium One, Rosatom also bought the uranium exploration rights in [[Arizona]], [[Colorado]], and Utah.<ref>http://www.defenddemocracy.org/media-hit/moscows-american-uranium/</ref> Evidence suggests the [[Hillary Clinton email scandal|33,000 emails Hillary Clinton admitted to destroying]] are related to the Uranium One bribery scandal.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2017/11/katica-foia-1.jpg</ref>

On June 29, 2010, [[Bill Clinton]] received $500,000 for a [[Moscow]] speech to Renaissance Capital in a pay-to-play bribery scam arranged by Sec. of State [[Hillary Clinton]] for State Dept. approval of Russian purchase of Uranium One, an American mining company.

Bill & Hillary Clinton file joint taxes, are a joint economic unit, therefore any money received by one spouse is joint income to both spouses.

That same June Uranium One and Rosatom notified the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) of the Russian government's intent to acquire twenty percent of the United States’ uranium assets.<ref>Jo Becker and Mike McIntire, “Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal,” THE NEW YORK TIMES(April 23, 2015).</ref> In July Renaissance Bank of Moscow reportedly assigned Uranium One a “buy” rating, a move that would principally benefit its Russian investors.

After Russia took control of the Uranium, the Podesta Group received $180,000 to lobby for Uranium One during the same period that the Clinton Foundation was receiving millions from U1 interests, and after Russia took majority ownership in the “20 percent” deal (source – you have to add up the years).<ref>http://theduran.com/robert-mueller-looks-to-take-down-john-and-tony-podesta/</ref><ref>https://www.opensecrets.org/lobby/clientlbs.php?id=D000065156&year=2015</ref> The uranium company states on its web site it is a “wholly owned subsidiary” of RUSANO, the Russian State Corporation for Nuclear Energy, a Rosatom entity. Tony Podesta's lobbying firm, the Podesta Group, represented the Russian-owned company Uranium One during former President Barack Obama's administration and did not register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, The Daily Caller News Foundation has determined.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2017/11/05/tony-podesta-lobbied-for-russias-uranium-one-and-did-not-file-as-a-foreign-agent/?utm_source=site-share</ref> The Podesta Group lobbied on behalf of Uranium One for part of 2012 and in 2014 and 2015, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. The Podesta Group was not listed as a lobbyist for Uranium One during its sale to ROSATOM in 2010. The Podesta Group did not file under FARA during any of the years when it lobbied both Congress and the executive branch.

Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) is composed of the leaders of 14 US government agencies involved in [[national security]] and commerce. In 2010, these included Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and [[Attorney General]] [[Eric Holder]], whose [[Justice Department]] and lead agency, the FBI, were conducting the investigation of Rosatom's ongoing U.S. racketeering, extortion, and money-laundering scheme.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/10/22/senate-probe-investigating-whether-robert-mueller-alerted-obama-administration-russian-bribery-scheme/</ref>

Four senior House national security xperts — [[Peter King]] (R., N.Y.), [[Ileana Ros-Lehtinen]] (R., Fla.), [[Spencer Bachus]] (R., Ala.), and Howard McKeon (R. Calif.) — voiced grave concerns, pointing out that Rosatom had helped Iran build its Bushehr nuclear reactor. The members concluded that “the take-over of essential US nuclear resources by a government-owned Russian agency . . . would not advance the [[national security]] interests of the United States.” Republican senator [[John Barrasso]] objected to [[Kremlin]] control of uranium assets in his state of [[Wyoming]], warning of Russia's “disturbing record of supporting nuclear programs in countries that are openly hostile to the United States, specifically [[Iran]] and [[Venezuela]].”

On October 22, 2010 CFIUS certified to Congress the sale of Uranium One to Rosatom of the Russian Federation.<ref>CFIUS Certification to Congress, Case 10-40: Rosatom (Russian Federation)/Uranium One, Inc, (October 22, 2010).</ref> No disclosure of Russian racketeering and strong-arm tactics was made to Congress — not by Secretary Clinton, Attorney General Holder, or President Obama.

===Clinton email scandal===
:''Man article:'' [[Hillary Clinton email scandal]]
On June 27, 2014, an Intelligence Community Directive ICD 732 was issued requiring a damage assessment be conducted whenever there is 'an actual or suspected unauthorized disclosure or compromise of classified national intelligence that may cause damage to U.S. national security. Despite Dir. Comey's finding Hillary Clinton's server did indeed contain classified information, no such damage assessment was ever made following [[Wikileaks]] disclosure of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's emails.

In early April 2016, President Obama intervened in an ongoing FBI criminal investigation when he publicly stated on national television that Hillary Clinton has shown “carelessness” in using a private e-mail server to handle classified information. Obama insisted that Clinton had not intended to endanger [[national security]]. Intent is not an element of the criminal statutes relevant to the handling of classified information. Obama acknowledged that classified information had been transmitted via Sec. Clinton's server, but he suggested its importance was overstated.

On May 2, 2016, disgraced FBI Dir. [[James Comey]] wrote an internal memorandum saying Hillary Clinton and others were guilty of [[felony|gross negligence]] which is punishable by up to 10 years imprisonment.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2017/11/06/report-comey-accused-clinton-of-gross-negligence-in-email-case/?utm_source=site-share</ref> On July 5 Comey announced that Sec. Clinton and staff were “extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information," and "there is evidence of potential violations of the [[statute]]s regarding the handling of classified information…There is [[evidence]] to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those with whom she was corresponding about the matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation." Comey referred the matter to the Justice Dept. for a prosecutorial decision. In the absence of prosecution, security or administrative sanctions are the norm.<ref>[https://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/press-releases/statement-by-fbi-director-james-b-comey-on-the-investigation-of-secretary-hillary-clinton2019s-use-of-a-personal-e-mail-system Statement by Director James Comey on the Investigation of Secretary Hillary Clinton’s Use of a Personal E-Mail System] (July i5, 2015).</ref> Comey's decision to by-pass DoJ rules and take matters into his own hands may have been part of a counterintelligence operation.<ref>https://www.wsj.com/articles/james-comey-is-maxwell-smart-1501022653?mod=e2fb</ref>

FISA Judge James Boasberg issued a 19 page order. Boasberg found that [[James Comey]], [[Andrew McCabe]] and the rest of the FBI small group were dishonest. They concealed from the court that Carter Page worked for the FBI. They omitted that Carter Page had been honest about his contacts. They altered a key document. They hid the fact that the FBI determined Christopher Steele was biased and not credible. They covered up who paid for the information - the Clinton campaign and the DNC. They deceived judges about news reports. They concealed multiple [[Bardy material|exculpatory evidence]]. Judge Boasberg determined that in January 2017 the FBI learned that the ''[[Steele dossier]]'', the basis for the [[Trump Russia hoax]] - was phony and made-up, and they didn't shut down the investigation or stop the spying, instead they accelerated it.<ref>https://themarketswork.com/2020/03/05/fisa-court-reprimands-fbi-but-makes-a-notable-error-itself/</ref>

===Pandemic preparedness===
On October 9, 2009, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius appointed Carol J. Baker, M.D. to serve as Chair of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the [[Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]] (CDC). On May 9, 2016 Baker sat on a panel discussion about “Achieving Childhood Vaccine Success in the U.S.” The panel addressed a range of issues including parents who opt out of childhood vaccine requirements, physicians who stray from the recommended vaccine schedule, and the role of the media in creating or removing barriers to [[vaccination]]. Baker told the gathered audience:
{{quotebox|“So I have the solution. Every study published in the last five years, when you look at vaccine refusers. I’m not talking about…hesitance, most of them we can talk into coming to terms.

The assassination of [[Osama bin Laden]] raised bin Laden from a coward in hiding to the status of hero-martyr in the cause of jihad, and became the impetus for increased recruiting as the West went into retreat from the battlefield. Remarkably, even the ''[[New York Times]]'' was critical of Obama's incessant boasting about the killing of bin Laden as a buzz phrase for his re-election.<ref>Baker, Peter and Shear, Michael D.

===Arab Spring===
Originally billed as a democratization movement, Obama's support of the so-called Arab Spring resulted in the resurgence of the global slave trade, human trafficking, [[genocide]] of the Yazidi's and Christian populations, and the [[European refugee crisis|worst refugee crisis]] since the displacement of populations by the [[Nazis]].

The states of [[Libya]], [[Yemen]] and others were destabilized. [[Barack Obama]] and [[Hillary Clinton]] actively intervened in Syria and Libya, funneling money and weapons to known [[Salafi]] [[jihad]]i groups. The powers that be remained in control of secular [[Egypt]]. [[Iran]], with Western acquiescence, remained firmly on the path to becoming a [[nuclear]] power.

:{{Quotebox|... the idea of an “Arab Spring” for the entire Arab world that President Obama, Secretary Clinton, and investor [[George Soros]] strongly promoted turned out to be based on a naïve idealism that instead undermined the [[rule of law]] and led to [[anarchy]], [[starvation]], and a [[European migrant crisis|refugee crisis]] that hurt [[citizen]]s more than the [[dictatorship]]s that preceded it.<ref>[https://appliedunificationism.com/2016/02/08/best-policy-ideas-of-the-2016-presidential-candidates/ The Best Policy Ideas of the 2016 Presidential Candidates], Gordon Anderson - February 8, 2016</ref>}}

The “no mercy’’ warning, of March 17, targeted rebels only, as reported by the ''[[New York Times]]'', which noted that Libya’s leader promised amnesty for those “who throw their weapons away.’’ Khadafy even offered the rebels an escape route and open border to Egypt, to avoid a fight “to the bitter end.’’<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2011/04/14/false_pretense_for_war_in_libya/|title=False Pretense for War in Libya?|date=April 14, 2011|first=Alan J|last=Kuperman|work=[[Boston Globe]]}}</ref>}}
The Congressional Research Service reports that the legality of President Obama's [[Libya#Libyan uprising 2011|Libyan operation]] may depend, at a minimum, on both authorization for the operation and the extent to which the manner of execution of the operation comports with relevant international law. The Charter of the United Nations, in Article 2(4), prohibits the “threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence” of a member state under most circumstances, and many practitioners and observers have wondered whether President Obama's establishment of a no-fly zone would constitute a violation of this prohibition.<ref>''[http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/natsec/R41701.pdf No-Fly Zones: Strategic, Operational, and Legal Considerations for Congress],'' Congressional Research Service, March 18, 2011, p. 6-8 pdf.</ref> In addition to international authorization, the [[War Powers Resolution]] of 1973 states that the President's powers as Commander in Chief to introduce U.S. forces into hostilities or imminent hostilities can only be exercised pursuant to (1) a declaration of war; (2) specific statutory authorization; or (3) a national emergency created by an attack on the United States or its forces. It requires the President in every possible instance to consult with Congress before introducing American Armed Forces into hostilities or imminent hostilities unless there has been a declaration of war or other specific congressional authorization. The War Powers Act also requires the President to report to Congress any introduction of forces into hostilities or imminent hostilities, Section 4(a)(1); into foreign territory while equipped for combat, Section 4(a)(2); or in numbers which substantially enlarge U.S. forces equipped for combat already in a foreign nation, Section 4(a)(3). Once a report is submitted “or required to be submitted” under Section 4(a)(1), Congress must authorize the use of force within 60 to 90 days or the forces must be withdrawn.<ref>Ibid, p. 9 pdf.</ref>

For some utterly inexplicable reason, President Obama released him from Camp Bucca. Thereafter, Baghdadi and his troops took over the Iraqi cities of Fallujah, Ramadi, Tikrit and Mosul, and threatened Baghdad.

Along the way they burned down everything in their path and tortured and murdered civilians, soldiers and police officers.

Director Blue posted a gruesome photo essay of his butchery.

Baghdadi photographed and publicized how he and his fellow butchers roasted alive men hogtied over flames, burned whole families with their children in cages, drowned prisoners in cages, raped and murdered thousands of Yazidi women and girls, and beheaded, shot, and blew up countless thousands of people.

Among those he kidnapped, tortured and murdered was a young American woman Kayla Mueller whom Obama failed to rescue in time.

After his Iraqi mayhem, Baghdadi took refuge in Syria where he hid out.<ref>https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/10/was_it_trumps_magic_wand_that_turned_the_washington_post_into_a_laughingstock.html</ref>}}

====Genocide of Christians====
''The Washington Free Beacon'' reported:
{{Quotebox|"The State Department’s top lawyers are systematically removing the word “[[genocide]]” to describe the Islamic State's mass slaughter of [[Christian]]s, Yazidis, and other ethnic minorities in Iraq and Syria from speeches before they are delivered and other official documents, according to human rights activists and attorneys familiar with the policies."<ref>https://freebeacon.com/national-security/state-department-lawyers-removing-references-isis-genocide-christians-religious-minorities/</ref>}}
The Obama Administration took no discernable action to protect Christians or end the genocide.

====Syrian war====
Obama turned to the CIA to arm rebels with the intent to overthrow [[Bashar al-Assad]]. The CIA funneled massive quantities of military equipment, weapons, and ammunition from the fallen Libyan regime to Turkey, where they were used to arm a number of anti-Assad rebels operating under the umbrella of the so-called “Free Syrian Army,” or FSA. In 2013, the CIA took direct control of the arm and equip program, sending teams to Turkey and Jordan to train the FSA. This effort, known as Operation Timber Sycamore, was later supplemented with a Department of Defense program to provide anti-tank weapons to the Syrian opposition.

In 2012, during the [[Syrian Civil War]], President Obama stated that if the Syrian dictator, President [[Bashar al-Assad]] used [[chemical weapon]]s against Syrians, that would be unacceptable and cross a red line. However, after it was confirmed that Assad did use weapons against his people, Obama did practically nothing. He went to Congress to authorize a military strike, but this request was rejected (he had the ability to order a military strike without Congress's approval). Later, the Obama Administration (particularly [[Susan Rice]])<ref name="RiceTakesHeat">Chakraborty, Barnini (April 7, 2017).

American efforts to create a viable armed opposition ultimately failed, with many of the weapons and equipment given to radical jihadist groups aligned with al-Qaeda and, later, ISIS. The emergence of ISIS as a regional threat in 2014 led to the U.S. building ties with Syrian Kurds as an alternative for its anti-Assad objectives.

====Fast and Furious scandal====
:''Main article:'' '''[[Fast and Furious]]'''
In May 2010, President Obama promised Mexican President [[Felipe Calderon]] that his administration would assist Mexico in curbing drug cartel violence, which has led to 30,000 deaths in Mexico. "President Calderon and I . . . stand together against the drug cartels that have unleashed horrific violence in so many communities," Obama said on May 19. "Mexico can count on the United States as a full partner in this effort.

The ''[[Washington Post]]'' has reported however that White House officials stopped a requirement for gun dealers to report bulk sales of high-powered [[semiautomatic rifle]]s commonly used by illegal drug cartels. [[Justice Department]] officials had asked for White House approval to require thousands of gun dealers along the border to report the purchases to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms and Explosives. ATF investigators expected to get leads on suspected arms traffickers. Senior law enforcement sources said the proposal from the ATF was held up by White House chief of staff [[Rahm Emanuel]].<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/12/17/AR2010121706598.html White House delayed rule meant to stop gun flow to Mexico] [[Washington Post]]</ref> Gun dealers have been required for decades to report the sales of multiple handguns to the ATF.

[[File:Obama and the media.jpg|right|250px|thumb|[[Ben Rhodes]] is the Assistant to the President for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting, and Deputy National Security Advisor to [[Susan Rice]]. Rhodes is also the brother of David Rhodes, President of CBS News.]]
During the 2008 campaign Obama promised direct talks [[Iran]]ian President [[Mahmoud Ahmadinejad]], a staunch enemy of the United States, who has called for Israel to be "wiped off the map," <ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20070927213903/http://www.iribnews.ir/Full_en.asp?news_id=200247</ref> and dismissed the [[Holocaust]] as a "myth." <ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4529198.stm Holocaust comments spark outrage] [[British Broadcasting Corporation]]</ref> President Obama has supported Iran's nuclear program, which some argue is being used to develop weapons-grade material.<ref>[https://www.newsmax.com/InsideCover/obama-ok-iran-nukes/2009/04/06/id/329280/ Obama, Officials May OK Iran's Nuclear Program] [[NewsMax]]</ref>

In 2009 Ahmadinejad was reelected to a second term after a controversial and disputed election. Charges of alleged voter fraud from the government resulted in massive protests in Iran and around the world. The government responded by violently suppressing the protesters, killing over 250 of them.<ref>[https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/jun/25/opposition-alters-tactics-to-avoid-protest-deaths/ Iran protesters alter tactics to avoid death] [[Washington Times]]</ref> Conservatives criticized Obama for failing to provide more vocal support for the pro-democracy protesters.

====Project Cassandra====
On May 18, 2010, John Brennan told a Washington conference including [[Lebanese]] leaders that the Obama administration was looking for ways to build up “moderate elements” within [[Hezbollah]]. “Hezbollah is a very interesting organization,” saying it had evolved from “purely a terrorist organization” to a militia and, ultimately, a political party with representatives in the Lebanese Parliament and Cabinet. “There is certainly the elements of Hezbollah that are truly a concern to us what they’re doing,” Brennan said. “And what we need to do is to find ways to diminish their influence within the organization and to try to build up the more moderate elements.”

In practice, the administration's willingness to envision a new role for Hezbollah, combined with Obama's desire for the [[Iran nuke deal]], translated into a reluctance to move aggressively against the top Hezbollah operatives, according to Project Cassandra members and others.<ref>https://www.reuters.com/article/us-lebanon-usa-hezbollah/u-s-wants-to-build-up-hezbollah-moderates-adviser-idUSTRE64I0UM20100519?type=politicsNews</ref> Hezbollah was known to be selling approximately $200 million a month in illegal [[narcotic]]s in the United States at this time.

A confidential DEA assessment more than a year into Obama's second term concluded that Hezbollah's business affairs entity “has leveraged relationships with corrupt foreign government officials and transnational criminal actors … creating a network that can be utilized to move metric ton quantities of cocaine, launder drug proceeds on a global scale, and procure weapons and precursors for explosives.” Hezbollah “has at its disposal one of the most capable networks of actors coalescing elements of transnational organized crime with terrorism in the world,” the assessment concluded.

Some top U.S. military officials shared those concerns, including the four-star generals heading U.S. Special Operations and Southern commands, who warned Congress that Hezbollah's criminal operations and growing beachhead in Latin America posed an urgent threat to U.S. security, according to transcripts of the hearings.

In early 2014, Project Cassandra task force agent John “Jack” Kelly who oversaw Hezbollah cases at Special Operations Division, and other task force members briefed Attorney General [[Eric Holder]], who was so alarmed by the findings that he insisted President Obama and his entire [[national security]] team get the same briefing as they formulated the administration's Iran strategy.

[[File:Unfit.jpeg|x160px|right|thumb|John Kerry negotiated the Iran nuclear blackmail deal. Iran was paid $150 Billion in cash, in violation of the Iran Sanctions Act, to sign the deal for which the United States received nothing.]]

====Iranian nuke deal====
The [[Iranian nuke deal]] was guided largely by the fact that US European allies already were violating existing sanctions, and unless the US acted fast, Iran was about to award a contract to the UK-French Airbus consortium for a fleet of commercial passenger jet airliners, which both Iran and [[Boeing]] much preferred to have.

The whole fiasco called into question the reliance on sanctions to prevent a rogue regime like North Korea from acquiring nuclear weapons, or compelling nations to behave as the US wishes as in the case of [[Magnitsky Act|Russian sanctions]], particularly if US allies are willing to ignore, circumvent, and violate sanctions.

In 2016, Obama Administration official [[Ben Rhodes]] admitted that the administration "created an echo chamber" in the media to advocate for the deal and attack those who opposed it.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/08/magazine/the-aspiring-novelist-who-became-obamas-foreign-policy-guru.html</ref>

===Russia Reset===
:{{Main article|Uranium One bribery scandal}}
President [[Barack Obama]] and Secretary of State [[Hillary Clinton]] cozied up to Putin, charging the Bush administration was intent on reigniting the [[Cold War]]. [[Michael McFaul]] was the architect of the Obama/Clinton “Russian Reset”, that eventually led McFaul to becoming the Ambassador to Russia.<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/29/world/europe/29envoy.html</ref> However once the Rosatom-Uranium One deal was completed and the [[Clinton Foundation]] pocketed millions of dollars from Putin cronies in donations and speaking fees, relations began to sour as the Obama administration could no longer ignore geopolitical realities. Putin had protested the Obama administration's illegal drone strikes, and the administration placed sanctions on Russian leaders ostensibly in retaliation for the Crimean referendum.<ref name="youtu.be">https://youtu.be/I-9aD45qxbE</ref>

====New Cold War====
[[File:Targeted sanctions.jpg|right|250px|thumb|''Targetted Sanctions'', from a Moscow art exhibition.]]
In Obama's New Cold War, the parties swapped ideologies. Now the West was fighting for [[multiculturalism]], forced [[collectivization]] and [[socialism]], and the Russia was standing up for the right of self-determination of peoples and in defense of [[Christian]] values.

Obama criticized the president of [[Russia]], [[Vladimir Putin]] for carrying out a referendum based on the right of self-determination by the people of [[Crimea]].<ref>[http://cnsnews.com/news/article/obama-calls-rethinking-crimea-vote Obama calls for a 'rethinking' on Crimea vote]. [[Cybercast News Service]]</ref>

President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton initially cozied up to Putin, charging the Bush administration was intent on re-igniting the [[Cold War]]. However once the Rosatom-Uranium One deal was completed and the [[Clinton Foundation]] pocketed millions of dollars from Putin cronies in donations and speaking fees, relations began to sour as the Obama administration could no longer ignore geopolitical realities. Putin had protested the Obama administrations illegal drone strikes, and the administration placed sanctions on Russian leaders ostensibly in retaliation for the Crimean referendum.<ref name="youtu.be"/>

President Obama's decision to move an antimissile defense system to [[Romania]] during the [[2016 US Presidential election]] only heightened tensions. Putin, who had repeatedly assailed the antimissile system as a grave danger to Russia's security, called Obama's decision dangerous. This coupled with Obama's implementation of sanctions rather than honor the [[American foreign policy#1994 Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances|1994 Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances]] negotiated by the [[Clinton administration]], displaying it as an empty promise to guarantee Ukrainian independence, only further exposed the befuddlement and inability of the Obama administration to stand by US commitments and the weaknesses of NATO.

During a presidential debate Obama mocked Republican opponent [[Mitt Romney]] saying, {{quotebox|“Gov. Romney, I’m glad you recognize al-Qaeda is a threat, because a few months ago when you were asked what is the biggest geopolitical group facing America, you said Russia — not al-Qaeda. And the 1980’s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back — because the Cold War has been over for 20 years."<ref>https://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/obama-to-romney-the-1980s-called-they-want-their-foreign-policy-back-video</ref>}}
A little less than three months earlier Obama authorized aid to al-Qaeda affiliate organizations<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20170216061621/https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/01/obama-secret-syria-order_n_1730712.html?tw_p=twt</ref> that became the [[Islamic State]].<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/jul/30/al-qaida-rebels-battle-syria</ref>

Before Obama's second term ended, administration priorities flip-flopped and came over to Romney's way of thinking with the FBI's "insurance policy" against Donald Trump's election. An illegal domestic counterintelligence probe was unleashed against administration enemies. Suddenly the Russia bogeyman was a priority threat; FBI deputy director [[Andrew McCabe]] told ''60 Minutes'' the reasons for the [[deep state coup]]: {{quotebox|"I was speaking to the man who had just run for the presidency, and won the election for the presidency, and who might have done so with the aid of the government of Russia, our most formidable adversary on the world stage and that was something that troubled me greatly."<ref>https://www.politico.com/story/2019/02/14/fbi-investigation-trump-russia-1169846</ref>}}

Early September 2013 marked a high-water mark for U.S.-Russian relations. Russian President Vladimir Putin helped President Barack Obama resist [[neocon]] demands to do “shock and awe” on Syria after a [[false-flag]] chemical attack on Aug. 21, 2013 just outside [[Damascus]], an attack which Secretary of State John Kerry immediately blamed on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

War was averted when the Russians persuaded Assad to give up Syria’s chemical weapons. The stockpiles were eventually destroyed under UN supervision aboard a U.S. ship in the Atlantic outfitted for chemical weapons destruction. The neocons’ outrage at Moscow’s thwarting of their effort to mousetrap Obama into an overt attack on Syria knew no bounds.

It was a modicum of trust between Obama and Putin that produced that agreement with Syria on Sept. 9, 2013. Two days later, ''The New York Times'' ran an op-ed by Putin in which he said that the tumultuous events of the previous few weeks in Syria had “prompted me to speak directly to the American people and their political leaders. It is important to do so at a time of insufficient communication between our societies.”

Putin argued against a U.S. attack on Syria, a position which was still being advocated passionately by Kerry and many neocons. Regarding the sarin attack of Aug. 21, 2013, which led to Syria giving up its chemical stocks and avoiding a direct U.S. military intervention, Putin wrote:
{{quotebox|“No one doubts that poison gas was used in Syria. But there is every reason to believe it was used not by the Syrian Army, but by opposition forces, to provoke intervention by their powerful foreign patrons. …

I welcome the president’s [Obama’s] interest in continuing the dialogue with Russia on Syria. We must work together to keep this hope alive, as we agreed to at the [[Group of 8]] meeting in Lough Erne in Northern Ireland in June [2013], and steer the discussion back toward negotiations.

If we can avoid force against Syria, this will improve the atmosphere in international affairs and strengthen mutual trust. It will be our shared success and open the door to cooperation on other critical issues.”}}
Putin would echo these words in his offer to the U.S. at the [[UN General Assembly]] in September 2015 to jointly intervene in Syria with air strikes against the Islamic State. He invoked the World War II alliance between the Soviet Union and the West to confront a greater threat than each other. “Similar to the anti-[[Hitler]] coalition, it could unite a broad range of parties willing to stand firm against those who, just like the Nazis, sow evil and hatred of humankind,” Putin said. It was an offer the Obama administration would reject. Putin ended his ''Times'' op-ed by saying that, “My working and personal relationship with President Obama is marked by growing trust.” But then came the caveat:
{{quotebox|“I would rather disagree with the case he made [in an earlier speech] on American exceptionalism, stating that the United States’ policy is ‘what makes America different. It’s what makes us exceptional.’ It is extremely dangerous to encourage people to see themselves as exceptional, whatever the motivation. There are big countries and small countries, rich and poor, those with long democratic traditions and those still finding their way to democracy. Their policies differ too. We are all different, but when we ask for the Lord’s blessings, we must not forget that God created us equal.”}}
Putin is said to have penned that last paragraph himself.<ref>https://consortiumnews.com/2020/05/08/ray-mcgovern-once-we-were-allies-then-came-micimatt/</ref>

In December 2015 ''[[The New York Times]]'' reported on ''Joe Biden, His Son and the Case Against a Ukrainian Oligarch.''

U.S. banking records show Hunter Biden's American-based firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC, received regular transfers into one of its accounts — usually more than $166,000 a month — from Burisma from spring 2014 through fall 2015, during a period when Vice President Biden was the main U.S. official dealing with Ukraine and its tense relations with Russia. [[Vice President]] Joe Biden threatens Ukrainian President [[Petro Poroshenko]] that the [[Obama administration]] would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, sending the former Soviet republic toward insolvency, if it didn't immediately fire Prosecutor General [[Viktor Shokin]] who was investigating his son, Hunter Biden, on the board of the Ukrainian oil and gas company Burisma Holdings. Joe Biden recounted, "'You’re not getting the billion'. I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours.

The status of an independent Ukraine became the focus of much [[fake news]] reporting by the ''[[Washington Post]]'' to drive a wedge between President [[Donald Trump]]'s efforts to improve relations with the [[Russian Federation]] following the disastrous [[foreign policy]] of President [[Barack Obama]], which created a "zone of chaos" throughout the [[Middle East]], [[North Africa]], and the Caucus region.

Obama's foreign policy shifted in 2014 from the "Russian Reset" of 2008 and the greater "flexibility" Obama promised President Medvedev in 2012, to rabid [[Russophobia]]. The anti-Russian grip on American foreign policy reached a fever pitch in coming years in efforts to destroy President Donald Trump who sought to mend relations with Russia after the Ukrainian crisis.<ref>:What the [[Democrat]]s tried to do today [20 March 2017 James Comey hearing] was criminalize everyone who works for better relations between the US and Russia. To be for peace between the nuclear powers is to be a Russian agent and to be put on a list. The Democrats insisted that Russia was an enemy out to get us, and the Democrats had no difficulty getting Comey and Rogers, both Obama appointees, to agree.

Comey and Rogers said that Russia was the main threat to the US, was working against our interests, and intends to harm us. Harming us includes opposing US hegemony and unilateralism. In other words, if the Russian government acts in the interests of Russia, the Russian government is harming the US. From the testimony it clearly emerged that any kind of opposition to anything Washington does is against American interests.

Both Comey and Rogers declared, falsely, that Russia had invaded Ukraine and seized Crimea by force. If Comey and Rogers are so poorly informed that they believe this, they are unfit for office. Crimea has been a part of Russia for 300 years. The population is almost entirely Russian. When the Soviet Union collapsed and Washington broke it apart, the Ukraine became independent for the first time in history. Crimea, which had been transferred by Khrushchev in 1954 from the Russian Soviet Socialist Republic to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, was included in the transfer on the condition that Russia had a long term lease on the naval base in Crimea.

When Washington’s regime change overthrew the democratically elected government in Ukraine, the Russian populations in Crimea, and in the new republics of Luhansk and Donetsk, were attacked and threatened by the neo-nazi elements in eastern Ukraine that had fought for Hitler against the Soviet Union.{{fact}} The populations of these areas voted overwhelmingly to reunite with Russia, from whence they had come. The votes were fair and open. As Crimea is the Russian Navy’s Black Sea base, Crimea was already occupied by Russian forces. For Comey and Rogers to call this an “invasion” displays either ignorance or a lack of integrity. http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2017/03/20/conspiracy-president-trump/ </ref>

In 2005 Tyahnbok signed an open letter to Ukrainian leaders calling for the government to halt the "criminal activities" of "organised Jewry", which was spreading its influence through organisations such as the [[Anti-Defamation League]] which ultimately wanted to commit "[[genocide]]" against the Ukrainian people.<ref>https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-20824693</ref> Emails were leaked detailing a meeting arranged between [[George Soros]] and Tyahnbok. Various Soros' international [[progressive]] front organizations (NGOs) organized and funded the Ukrainian revolution.<ref>http://www.voltairenet.org/article181535.html#nb2</ref>

In the call, Nuland and Pyatt discussed the ouster of Ukrainian President [[Viktor Yanukovych]] and the installation of opposition leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk as prime minister. Nuland favored opposition leader Yatsenyuk over his main rivals Vitali Klitschko and Oleh Tyahnybok.<ref>In televiserd speech in 2004, Tyahnybok made comments such as, "[You are the ones] that the Moscow-Jewish mafia ruling Ukraine fears most" and "They were not afraid and we should not be afraid. They took their automatic guns on their necks and went into the woods, and fought against the Muscovites, Germans, Jews and other scum who wanted to take away our Ukrainian state." In April 2005, Tyahnybok co-signed an open letter to President Viktor Yushchenko calling for a parliamentary investigation into the "criminal activities of organized Jewry in Ukraine.</ref>

Nuland told Pyatt, “I think Yats is the guy who’s got the economic experience, the governing experience. He’s the… what he needs is Klitsch and Tyahnybok on the outside.”

Towards the end of the conversation, then-Vice President Joe Biden was discussed as being willing to help cement the changeover in Ukraine:
{{Quotebox|'''Pyatt''': “We want to try to get somebody with an international personality to come out here and help to midwife this thing. The other issue is some kind of outreach to Yanukovych but we probably regroup on that tomorrow as we see how things start to fall into place.” '''Nuland''': “So on that piece Geoff, when I wrote the note [[Jake Sullivan|[Biden’s national security adviser Jake] Sullivan’s]] come back to me VFR [direct to me], saying you need [[Biden]] and I said probably tomorrow for an atta-boy and to get the deets [details] to stick. So Biden’s willing.”<ref>https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26079957</ref>}}

Nuland and Pyatt met with Ukrainian opposition leaders Tyahnybok, Klitschko and Yatsenyuk along with then-president Yanukovych just days later on Feb. 7, 2014. Events moved swiftly. On Feb. 22, 2014, Yanukovych was removed as President of Ukraine and fled to Russia. On Feb. 27 2014, Yatsenyuk, the candidate favored by Nuland, was installed as Prime Minister. Tyahnybok and his [[Svoboda]] party were brought into the new government, Klitschko was left out. Svoboda is considered a [[fascist]] organization.

A fw months later on April 18, 2014, Hunter Biden was appointed to the Board of Directors for Burisma–one of the largest natural gas companies in Ukraine. Four days later, on April 22, 2014, Vice President Biden traveled to Ukraine, offering his political support and $50 million in aid for Yatsenyuk's shaky new government. Petro Poroshenko, a billionaire politician, was elected as president of Ukraine on May 25, 2014. Joe Biden became close to both men and helped Ukraine to obtain a four-year $17.5 billion IMF package in March 2015.

Sometime in the later half of 2014 [[Christopher Steele]] of Orbis International began providing informal reports to the State Department on the Ukraine. ''[[CBS News]]'' reported “During the Ukraine crisis in 2014 and ‘15, Chris Steele had a number of commercial clients who were asking him for reports on what was going on in Russia, what was going on in Ukraine, what was going on between them,” said Victoria Nuland, assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs.<ref>https://www.cbsnews.com/news/victoria-nuland-says-obama-state-dept-informed-fbi-of-reporting-from-steele-dossier/</ref>

Vice President [[Joe Biden]] oversaw the disbursement of $1 billion allocated by the U.S. to the new government of Ukraine. On April 18, 2014 the Vice President's son, Hunter Biden, was appointed to the board of directors of Burisma. According to ''The Hill'' Biden's firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners, was receiving regular payments—“usually more than $166,000 a month”—from Burisma. The payments ran from the spring of 2014 through the fall of 2015 and reportedly totaled more than $3 million. In a text message from Hunter Biden to his sister Naomi, Hunter said that "Pop" takes 50% of his salary.<ref>https://www.redstate.com/scotthounsell/2020/10/15/october-surprise-giuliani-reveals-texts-from-hunter-saying-biden-got-half-of-his-contracts/</ref> Hunter Biden was hired by [[Mykola Zlochevsky]], who served as Ukraine's ecology minister in the previous administration.

Zlochevsky came under investigation by the new administration for alleged embezzlement of $5 billion while ecology minister. The prosecutor traced payments made to Hunter Biden. Vice President Biden threatened the new Ukrainian administration to withhold $1 billion in U.S. allocated funds unless the prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden was fired.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/09/world/europe/corruption-ukraine-joe-biden-son-hunter-biden-ties.html</ref>

Between April 2014 and October 2015, more than $3 million was paid out by Burisma to an account linked to Biden's and [[Devon Archer]]'s Rosemont Seneca firm, according to the financial records placed in a federal court file in Manhattan in another case against Archer. The bank records show that, on most months when Burisma money flowed, two wire transfers of $83,333.33 each were sent to the Rosemont Seneca–connected account on the same day. The same Rosemont Seneca–linked account typically then paid Hunter Biden one or more payments ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 each. Ukrainian prosecutors reviewed internal company documents and wanted to interview Hunter Biden and Archer about why they had received such payments, but couldn't because of Joe Biden's intervention.

One email from a Burisma executive reads,
{{quotebox-float|“Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together. It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure.”}}
Former [[Vice President Biden]] has repeatedly [[lied]] about having any knowledge of his son Huner's dealings with Burisma. [[Hunter Biden]] earned in excess of $3 million while serving on Burisma's board of directors during the [[Obama administration]]. The former vice president bragged to the [[Council on Foreign Relations]] that he threatened the President of Ukraine with withholding $1.8 Billion in foreign aid and loan guarantees, which the former vice president was in charge of, unless a [[prosecutor]] investigating Burisma [[kickback]]s to the Biden family was fired.

The former vice president's son, Hunter, never visited Ukraine, did not speak Ukrainian, had no experience in the oil and gas industry, received over $50,000 a month in wire transfers from Burisma in which he paid half to his father,<ref>https://www.bostonherald.com/2020/10/15/howie-carr-hunter-biden-scandal-too-hot-for-alt-left-media/</ref> was dishonorably discharged from the [[Navy]] for [[cocaine]] [[addiction]], returned a rental car with crack and paraphernalia in it,<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/05/17/exclusive-2016-arizona-police-report-cocaine-pipe-found-in-car-rented-by-joe-bidens-son-hunter-biden-authorities-declined-to-prosecute/</ref> had a baby out of wedlock whom he refused to pay child support for until ordered by a court while he was having an affair with his [[widow]]ed sister-in-law.<ref>https://nypost.com/article/inside-the-life-of-hunter-biden-joe-bidens-scandal-plagued-son/</ref> Biden was paid $3.5 million from the wife of the [[Moscow]] mayor to launder $200 million in violation of the [[Magnitsky Act]].<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/10/maybe-just-like-gettin-ass-whooped-black-trump-supporter-posts-epic-takedown-black-biden-supporters/</ref> Tens of thousands of dollars in payments to an [[Eastern Europe]]an prostitution and human tafficing ring were also discovered.<ref>https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/megan-fox/2020/09/23/senate-report-links-hunter-biden-to-human-trafficking-ring-n959766</ref>

Biden bragged about having caused the firing of the [[Ukraine]] prosecutor to a [[CFR]] conference.
[[File:Joe Biden at CFR meeting 2018 2.jpeg|left|300px|thumb|Biden at the [[Council on Foreign Relations]]: "‘I’m leaving in six hours.

U.S. banking records show Hunter Biden's firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC, received regular transfers — usually more than $166,000 a month — from Burisma from spring 2014 through fall 2015, during a period when Joe Biden was the main U.S. official dealing with Ukraine. Biden threatened Ukrainian President [[Petro Poroshenko]] that the [[Obama administration]] would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, sending Ukraine toward insolvency, if it didn't immediately fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin who was investigating his son, Hunter. Biden recounted, {{quotebox-float|"'You’re not getting the billion'. I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money'...Well, [SOB], he got fired.

Yuriy Lutsenko, who replaced Shokin as the prosecutor looking into Burisma, said the evidence in the Burisma case he'd like to present to [[William Barr]], particularly the vice president's intervention.

Five months into the Obama administration in June 2009 [[Hunter Biden]] and Chris Heinz, stepson of Senate Foreign Relations Committee chair [[John Kerry]] formed Rosemount Seneca. The firm partnered with the Thornton Group run by Devon Archer, and the Bank of China, to form [[Bohai Harvest RST]] (BHR) in China. Devon Archer is the nephew of [[Whitey Bulger]], head of the [[Boston]] Irish [[mafia]] who enjoyed federal protection under FBI director [[Robert Mueller]] as an informant.<ref>https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2335614/Trial-Boston-mob-boss-James-Whitey-Bulger-gets-underway-family-victims-say-look-eye.html</ref> Bulger was convicted of 19 murders that occurred while under Mueller's protection; some have linked the Bulger klan to as many as 52 murders while Mueller was U.S. Attorney in Boston.<ref>https://www3.bostonglobe.com/metro/1970/01/19/one-lingering-question-for-fbi-director-robert-mueller/613uW0MR7czurRn7M4BG2J/story.html?arc404=true</ref> The Bank of China is owned by the Chinese government and closely connected with the Chinese military and intelligence services.

'''2016 elections'''

Days after the May 2016 elections, Bongbong Marcos alleged that Smartmatic had tampered with the votes which cost him being elected Vice President of the Philippines and criminal proceedings were filed by the Commission on Elections (Comelec) against Comelec personnel as well as Smartmatic employees, with Election Commissioner Rowena Guanzon stating that Smartmatic had violated protocols.<ref name="INQUIREphil">{{cite news|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/785566/smartmatic-faces-probe|title=Smartmatic faces probe|last1=Uy|first1=Jocelyn R.|date=14 May 2016|work=Philippine Daily Inquirer|accessdate=}}</ref> After a Smartmatic employee fled the country, Bongbong Marcos accused the Comelec for his "escape", though two other Smartmatic personnel, one from Venezuela and the other from Israel, were present for criminal proceedings.<ref name="BONGsmart">{{cite news|url=http://www.manilatimes.net/comelec-hit-for-escape-of-smartmatic-engineer/268793/|title=Comelec hit for escape of Smartmatic engineer - The Manila Times Online|date=19 June 2016|work=The Manila Times|accessdate=}}</ref> In July 2016, it was reported that Smartmatic funneled votes through "unofficial servers". In an October 2016 editorial, ''The Manila Times'' called on all members of Comelec to resign due to the "innumerable controversies since its adoption of the Smartmatic-based Automated Election System".

On June 7, 2017, the Philippine Department of Justice indicted "several Smartmatic and Comelec personnel for changing the script in the election transparency server on election night during the May 2016 national and local polls". Those charged with the tampering include Marlon Garcia, the head of the Smartmatic's Technical Support Team, as well as two other Smartmatic employees, Neil Baniqued and Mauricio Herrera, and Comelec IT employees Rouie Peñalba, Nelson Herrera, and Frances Mae Gonzales. The six were charged with "illegal access, data interference, and system interference" under the Cybercrime Prevention Act.<ref name="ABScbnIND">{{cite news|url=http://news.abs-cbn.com/news/06/07/17/smartmatic-comelec-personnel-ordered-indicted-for-halalan-2016-script-alteration|title=Smartmatic, Comelec personnel ordered indicted for Halalan 2016 script alteration|last1=News|first1=Ina Reformina, ABS-CBN|date=7 June 2017|work=ABS-CBN Corporation|accessdate=}}</ref>

Divina Law, a firm that provides legal advice to Smartmatic. Bautista admitted that he obtained "referral fees", but denied that it was due to his position in Comelec.

====Scarborough Shoal====
The Obama administration in 2012 brokered an agreement between the People's Republic of China and the Philippines for China to withdraw their ships from Scarborough Shoal which lies within the Philippines exclusive economic zone (EEZ). Only [[Manila]] complied with the agreement. Beijing has been in firm control of Scarborough Shoal ever since. The Obama administration, despite the brazen Chinese seizure, decided not to enforce the agreement it had arranged.<ref>https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/17215/china-whitsun-reef</ref>

===Albania===
Subsequent leaked emails revealed the cozy ties between George Soros and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, including one email where Soros directed Clinton’s policy with respect to unrest in [[Albania]], telling her that “two things need to be done urgently,” which were to “bring the full weight of the international community to bear on Prime Minister Berisha” and “appoint a senior European official as mediator.”<ref>https://wikileaks.org/clinton-emails/emailid/29008</ref> Both “urgent” tasks were subsequently performed by Clinton, presumably at Soros’ behest.

===Afghan War===
{{main article|Afghanistan War}}
The Afghanistan War is the NATO operation in [[Afghanistan]], 2001 to the present, to destroy the [[Taliban]] and prevent the formation of a base for Islamic militants to attack American interests. President Obama has declared it to be the central front in the war on terrorism and has ordered a buildup of American troops to fight a stubborn insurgency led by the Taliban. He has doubled American forces and is supported by most Republicans, but is opposed by many liberal Democrats, who fear another quagmire like Vietnam.

Conditions have turned much worse in late summer, as the much-heralded national election was marked by widespread fraud and pessimism is spreading. Increasingly the main justification for the war, now 8 years old, is to prop up the shaky regime in neighboring [[Pakistan]]. NATO commander [[Stanley McChrystal]] has requested 30,000-40,000 additional troops in Afghanistan. Obama, unused to such responsibility, dithered for three months before approving the urgent request. By early 2010 the US will have over 100,000 troops in Afghanistan, triple the number when Obama took office. Conservatives have applauded the buildup.
[[File:Af-UStroops.jpg|thumb|right|350px]]
American policy was increasing set by Defense Secretary [[Robert Gates]], originally appointed by President Bush in 2006 and reappointed by Obama in 2009. Gates fired the commander General David McKiernan in May 2009, replacing him with McChrystal. Gates insisted on dropping the old strategy of hunting down insurgents and instead adopting a '''counterinsurgency''' strategy that focused on protecting local civilians and training Afghan soldiers and police to take over the job. Gates convinced Obama, who ordered 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan in Dec. 2009, with a deadline of 18 months, at which time a transition to Afghan responsibility would begin. Liberals thought Obama and Gates were making a big mistake—heading into another quagmire like Vietnam. However liberal Democrats in Congress will not try to block Obama's proposals, at least at this point.

Democrats are split not in two but in three: a small number of hawks who agree with his decision; a large number of doves who oppose it; and a sizable group that is uneasy with the Obama surge but willing to loyally support his decision. Most conservatives, on the other hand, saw victory in Afghanistan as a vital national goal and approved the new strategy while voicing objections to the 18-month deadline. Polls in mid-December show Republicans overwhelmingly supported the war, with 71% saying the country was doing the right thing compared to 21% who said it was not. By contrast, Democrats were evenly split, with 47% supporting the war and 46% opposing it.

Each one thousand American soldiers in Afghanistan cost a billion dollars a year; Speaker Pelosi has indicated that there will be no tax surcharge to pay for the operation.

Gen. [[James Mattis]] criticized Obama’s orders to withdraw forces in [[Afghanistan]] without consideration for what was happening on the ground. In an interview with [[NPR]], Mattis said he had been given “two contradictory objectives” in 2011 when he was leading Central Command and overseeing the wars in Afghanistan and [[Iraq]]/ Mattis said, “The forces under my command at CENTCOM were to degrade the [[Taliban]] while building up the Afghan army. They were also to withdraw on a strict timetable, independent of circumstances on the ground. We could do one or the other, but not both. What you have got to do is figure out what it is you intend to do at the outset [of a war] and then hold firm to that and don’t half-step it. I think that we have had serious policy challenges in figuring out exactly what it is we intend to do and then holding firm to that vision.”<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/mattis-slams-obama-for-giving-him-contradictory-objectives-in-afghanistan</ref>

===Guantanamo Bay===
On November 16, 2008, in an interview with Steve Kroft of [[CBS]]'s ''[[60 Minutes]]'' program, Barack Obama promised to close [[Guantanamo Bay Detention Facility]] by [[Executive Order]], "to regain America's [[moral]] stature in the world."<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQXZoM__vU0 60 Minutes: Obama Reiterates Promise To Close Guantanamo Bay].

==Spygate==
[[File:Susan-rice-email-1-2.jpg|right|300px|thumb|A smoking gun email linking Barack Obama to illegal domestic spying on political opponents and civil rights violations.]]
In the Obama-era political surveillance programs, the lines between the CIA and FBI were blurred. They worked together through contractors.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/04/25/president-obamas-2016-political-surveillance-coverup-had-two-parallel-tracks/</ref> The Obama administration had been conducting illegal surveillance on American citizens since 2012, shortly after the IRS scandal was exposed. On March 9, 2016, the [[NSA]] FISA compliance officer discovered the illegal collusion between the FBI and CIA to spy on American citizens. Between March and July 2016, the CIA used foreign intelligence allies in [[Italy]], the [[U.K.]] and [[Australia]] to create an illusion of Russian involvement with the Trump campaign. This operation was based on earlier more innocuous contacts from various countries, weaponized and redeployed in what everyone calls “spygate”. This track successfully culminated with the start of the FBI's Operation Crossfire Hurricane.


===James Clapper===
On March 12, 2013, in public testimony before the Senate Intelligence Oversight Committee [[Democrat]]ic Sen.

===DOJ corruption===
[[File:Creepy-strzok.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
:{{See also|Lawfare Group}}
A month after [[Donald Trump]] announced his intention to seek the presidency in 2015, Dep. Attn. Gen. [[Sally Yates]] blocked the Office of Inspector General (OIG) oversight of the DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD). The OIG, [[Michael Horowitz]], requested oversight and Sally Yates responded with a lengthy 58-page legal explanation saying essentially, ‘no – not allowed.’ All of the DOJ was subject to oversight, except the National Security Division.

President Obama's political operatives within the DOJ-NSD were conducting illegal surveillance to monitor the Trump campaign. The NSD unit was working in coordination with Peter Strzok and others of the FBI Counterintelligence Division.

Sometime in early 2016, NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers became aware of “ongoing” and “intentional” violations of the [[Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act]] (FISA) - Section 702 surveillance. Specifically item #17 “About Queries” of US persons. Rogers suspected FISA 702 (#17 – email and phone calls) surveillance activity was being used for reasons he deemed unlawful. In mid-2016, Rogers ordered the NSA compliance officer to run a full audit of 702 NSA compliance. In October 2016 Rogers told the FISA court he became aware of unlawful surveillance and collection of US persons. The FBI counterintelligence division was monitoring Trump through FISA 702(17) upstream surveillance collected by a DOJ National Security Division that had no oversight.

Ten days after the election, on November 17, 2016, Dir. Rogers traveled to Trump Tower without telling DNI James Clapper. Rogers likely informed President-elect Trump of the illegal activity by the FBI and DOJ, including the probability that all of Trump Tower's email and phone communication were being collected. Clapper then demanded Rogers be fired. It would appear Obama's Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, is complicit as well, although Clapper denies participating.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/01/05/operation-condor-how-nsa-director-mike-rogers-saved-the-u-s-from-a-massive-constitutional-crisis/</ref>

[[FusionGPS]] was hired by the law firm of [[BakerHostetler]] to compile a dossier on [[Bill Browder]], a [[London]] banker. Browder lobbied strongly for passage of the [[Magnitsky Act]], or Russia sanctions bill. The bill is named for an employee of Browder who died under suspicious circumstances in a Russian while investigating the loss of $350 million. The sanctions bill must he re-authorized every several years. Glenn Simpson, a founding partner of Fusion GPS, compiled the dossier for the anti-Browder project and worked closely with Natalia Veselnitskaya, a Russian lawyer. Denis Katsyv, the owner of Prevezon Holdings, sought to undo and limit the impact of sanctions in the 2016 re-authorization bill. BakerHostetler, the firm representing Katsyv and Prevezon Holdings made a payment to FusionGPS on March 7, 2016, court records indicate. Through October 31, 2016 BakerHostetler paid FusionGPS $523,651.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2017/11/21/unsealed-fusion-gps-bank-records-show-russia-related-payments/?utm_source=site-share</ref>

Natalie Veselnitskaya was granted special immigration parole status by Obama Attn. General Loretta Lynch to represent Prevezon Holdings in an asset forfeiture agreement for $6 million with the U.S. government over a Russia money-laundering suit on May 12, 2016. Veselnitskaya overstayed her immigration parole status to work for FusionGPS in illegal lobbying scheme for repeal of Russian sanctions. Neither Veselnitskaya nor FusionGPS registered as Russian agents under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).

Simpson's Russian lobbying work involved passing stories to his deep network of [[journalism]] contacts in order to undermine the Magnitsky Act. Bill Browder, a London banker whom the Russians cheated out of $350 million, confirmed FusionGPS was paid by [[Russia]] through the Katsyv family. The Katsyv family is headed by Pyotr Katsyv, Vice President of ‘Russian Railways’, a huge Russian transportation company, in which the Russian government is the sole shareholder.<ref>https://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/news-releases/checking-facts-there-evidence-fusion-gps-was-paid-russia-while-compiling-trump</ref> The Obama FBI and [[DOJ]] ignored Browder's Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) complaint.

On May 7, 2017, Eric and Donald Trump Jr. were summoned to FBI headquarters for an emergency meeting with bureau cybersecurity agents, CIA representatives, and Dir.

By December outrage of the Obama FBI abuses was omnipresent; in seven hours of testimony before House Permanent Select Intelligence Committee (HPSCI) Dep. Dir. Andrew McCabe made statements that contradicted the evidence, and was unable to provide any substantive examples of verified allegations in the ''Steele dossier''. When pushed for examples of what was verified in the anti-Trump dossier, McCabe was only able to cite the fact that Trump campaign advisor Carter Page traveled to Moscow — McCabe could not verify anything about the meetings that Page supposedly had. McCabe claimed he could not recall — despite documents with McCabe's own signature on them establishing the fact of his knowledge of the dossier's financing and provenance.<ref>https://www.dailywire.com/news/24938/report-mccabe-contradicts-himself-testimony-unable-ryan-saavedra</ref><ref>https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/dec/25/fbi-says-russia-dossiers-collusion-charges-unsubst/</ref>

The information the FBI collected, and the material Christopher Steele and [[FusionGPS]] manufactured, were used to create the [[fake news]] [[Trump-Russia conspiracy theory]], and to manipulate the FISA Court into granting a FISA warrant - what Peter Strzok called “the insurance policy” against Trump's election.

==Elections during the Obama presidency==
===2010 Midterms===
After the drubbing the president's party took in the [[2010 Midterm elections]] and ouster of [[Nancy Pelosi]] as [[Speaker of the House]], Obama solicited former President [[Bill Clinton]] for advice on dealing with the new [[Republican]] majority. President Clinton endorsed extending the "tax cuts for the rich" of former President [[George W. Bush]], which lowered rates for everyone below the level of President Clinton's tax hikes. Obama followed Clinton's counsel and signed on to extending the Republican across the board tax reductions including a 2% "payroll tax holiday", or reduction in the amount of Social Security withholding taxes from workers paychecks.

Longtime Chicago friend and operative [[Rahm Emanuel]] resigned under a cloud of suspicion surrounding the [[jobsgate]] scandal, and was replaced by [[William Daley]]. Many other "Clinton retreads", as the press dubbed them, were also brought back into government. One crtic observed, "Mr. Obama failed to notice that President Bill Clinton saw his strongest period of [[economic growth]] only after his [[Clinton health care plan|health-care takeover]] and [[stimulus bill]]s were defeated, welfare rolls were pared, the capital gains tax was cut, and the budget was balanced."<ref>[http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703983104576262763594126624.html?mod=djemBestOfTheWeb_h The Obama Growth Discount] [[Wall Street Journal]]</ref>

===2015–2017: Election interference===
:''See : '''[[Obamagate timeline 2015 progressive police state]]'''''
Beginning in July 2015 Deputy Attorney General [[Sally Yates]] terminated independent Inspector General oversight of the [[DOJ]]-National Security Division. [[Nellie Ohr]] was hired as an FBI contractor to begin illegal [[FISA]] 702 surveillance on [[Michael Cohen]] and others in September 2015. FBI counterintelligence investigations generally proceed sequentially from what is called a preliminary investigation or inquiry (PI) to a full investigation (FI). To move from a PI to an FI requires substantial information — predication — indicating investigative targets acted as agents of a foreign power. There are strict guidelines governing when the FBI can task a confidential source or a government undercover operative to collect against a U.S. citizen. Normally this is restricted to a full investigation, and normally restricted to the United States, not overseas. The FBI tasked sources to spy on the Trump campaign before an investigation was even officially opened. [[Papadopoulos]] was set up by FBI informants in [[Europe]].

FBI Director [[James Comey]] gave immunity to Clinton cronies who destroyed evidence under Congressional [[subpoena]].

:{{Main article|FBI scandal}}
Sundance of the conservativetreehouse.com summarizes: '''December 2015 through April 2016''': The first phase leading into ‘[[Spygate]]’ is the period of time where opposition research of the republican candidate field was taking place. It is in this period where Fusion-GPS hired CIA Open Source researcher Nellie Ohr, wife of DOJ-NSD official Bruce Ohr, to do research. In the background of this time period the FBI and NSA database was being exploited by unknown FBI contractors; it is highly suspected that Nellie Ohr and/or Fusion-GPS was one of those contracted agencies with access to the massive electronic and metadata files.

'''April 18th through July 31st 2016''': At the same time as NSA Director Mike Rogers discovered a significant and unauthorized uptick in FISA-702(16)(17) database queries, and subsequently blocked access (April 18th, 2016), candidate Donald Trump became the presumptive nominee for the presidential race. It was within this period where Fusion-GPS was commissioned by Hillary Clinton to focus exclusively on candidate Trump. Fusion held the prior search findings, and Fusion contracted Christopher Steele who later contacted the FBI through official channels. On July 31st, 2016, FBI counterintelligence operation Crossfire Hurricane became official. An official investigation targeting the campaign of Donald Trump now held a legal, albeit sketchy and politically motivated, justification. Under the auspices of investigating Russian involvement with George Papadopoulos, Carter Page, Paul Manafort and General Michael Flynn, the FBI was now conducting full-blown surveillance on the political campaign of Donald Trump. Crossfire Hurricane was the legal cover; ‘Spygate’ begins.

'''August 1st through October 21st 2016'''. With the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane counterintelligence operation in full swing, the Obama intelligence community, the CIA, was conducting facilitating operations throughout. In August 2016 CIA Director John Brennan brought the covert intelligence congressional oversight team known as the Gang-of-Eight into the picture. The CIA angle was explained by Director John Brennan under the open auspices of the CIA operation looking at possible Russian interference with the election. However, Brennan's activity was more importantly, and intentionally, a supplement to the FBI activity. Brennan provided FBI Director James Comey with the two-page “EC” or electronic communication document that initiated Crossfire Hurricane in July. Brennan's role is critical. Brennan kicked-off Crossfire Hurricane; Brennan's intelligence product was included in President Obama's daily briefing (PDB); and specifically by design, very importantly, Brennan was the ONLY intelligence official briefing congress: 
:''Brennan Testimony: “Third, through the so-called Gang-of-Eight process we kept congress apprised of these issues as we identified them.”
:“Again, in consultation with the White House, '''''I PERSONALLY briefed''' the full details of our understanding of Russian attempts to interfere in the election to congressional leadership; specifically: Senators Harry Reid, Mitch McConnell, Dianne Feinstein and Richard Burr; and to representatives Paul Ryan, Nancy Pelosi, Devin Nunes and Adam Schiff '''between 11th August and 6th September [2016]''''', ''I provided the same briefing to each of the gang of eight members.”
:“Given the highly sensitive nature of what was an active counter-intelligence case [that means the FBI], involving an ongoing Russian effort, to interfere in our presidential election, the full details of what we knew at the time were shared only with those members of congress; each of whom was accompanied by one senior staff member.”…'' 

During this time-frame [Aug, Sept, Oct ’16]: •Chris Steele was funneling the results of his collaborative work with Nellie Ohr into the FBI; •the FBI was conducting full surveillance upon the Trump campaign (CH/Spygate); •and Brennan was seeding the legal background, a plausible justification of sorts which might be needed later, with carefully worded briefings to the Gang-of-Eight. Critical to note – the Go8 was not being briefed on Crossfire Hurricane/Spygate, which was the FBI operation to conduct internal political surveillance of the Trump campaign. The Go8 only knew what Brennan was informing them. Those Brennan briefings were more of a disingenuous overview of generalized Russian interference. James Comey never briefed the Go8 on his FBI operation. [In March 2017 Comey would tell congress his decision not to inform them was due to “the sensitivity of the matter”.]

Toward the end of October things took on a new sense of urgency. All of the aggregate intelligence exploitation, FISA-702 database extraction, and ongoing campaign surveillance being conducted was seriously fraught with legal peril. On October 21st, 2016, the FBI urgently applied for, and received, a FISA Title One surveillance warrant against U.S. person Carter Page.

That FISC approved warrant made all of the prior FBI surveillance on the Trump campaign completely legal. In essence the FISA court approved all prior FBI conduct. Presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer approved the warrant. Sally Yates and James Comey were the application signatories.

A Title-One FISA warrant authorizes any and all surveillance methods; and establishes legal authority for retroactive review of all files and records associated with Carter Page; and anyone he comes into contact with; and anyone those contacts come into contact with.

In essence Title-One authority permits all electronic and physical surveillance, wiretaps, phone and electronic records, database extraction etc. The warrant is retroactive. All of the previous actions against the Trump campaign were now authorized and legal. A Title-One FISA Court warrant is the highest level of surveillance authority any court can grant.

====FISA abuse====
[[File:Fisa-2.jpg|right|350px|thumb|The FISA court ruled the [[Obama administration]]'s improper access of [[FISA]] data granted to contractors "seems to have been the result of deliberate decision making."]]
:{{Main article|FISA abuse}}
'''October 21st, 2016, through January 20th, 2017''': The FBI received their FISC surveillance authority two weeks before the November 8th presidential election.

If Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election all of this would disappear; none of this would ever surface; and the entire operation would just evaporate into the ether of invisible DC history. But Hillary didn't win. She lost. Now, all downstream official action takes an entirely more urgent and important shift.

Shortly after Presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer authorized the FISA warrant, NSA Director Mike Rogers went to the FISC and informed the same judge of the FISA-702(16)(17) abuses that took place in the 2016 presidential election cycle.

Judge Collyer issues an explosive opinion lambasting the FBI for their allowed abuse of the system. The DOJ head of the National Security Division, John Carlin, resigned from his position.

Ten days after the election NSA Director Mike Rogers also travelled to Trump Tower without informing his boss ODNI James Clapper.

There has been a great deal of speculation as to what Rogers told President-elect Trump during that meeting. It's likely Director Rogers informed Trump about some of what he knew surrounding the unauthorized surveillance activity and FISA(702) exploitation. However, intelligence is highly compartmented; it's also virtually guaranteed Rogers had no idea what the FBI did, or was doing, with the material and the larger ‘Spygate’ operation.

After Hillary lost the election, CIA Director John Brennan and ODNI James Clapper quickly put together an Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) about Russian interference in the 2016 election. When the report was pushed into the media bloodstream NSA Director Mike Rogers did not hold the same level of confidence in the assessment.

:''[…] A source close to the House investigation said Brennan himself selected the CIA and FBI analysts who worked on the ICA, and that they included former FBI counterespionage chief Peter Strzok.''

:''“Strzok was the intermediary between Brennan and [former FBI Director James] Comey, and he was one of the authors of the ICA,” according to the source.''<ref>https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2018/05/14/2_colleagues_contradict_brennan_on_use_of_dossier.html</ref>

Again, it is super important to remember congressional oversight has no idea about the FBI operation (CH/Spygate) during the election. Congressional oversight, the ‘Gang-of-Eight’, only knows what John Brennan has briefed them about; there have been no Go8 briefings by FBI Director James Comey.

After the 2016 election the Go8 members also changed. Senator Dianne Feinstein abdicated her SSCI Vice-Chair position to Senator Mark Warner, and with the retirement of Harry Reid, Senator Chuck Schumer now became minority leader.

On January 5th, 2017, President Obama held an Oval Office meeting with VP Joe Biden, James Comey (FBI), Michael Rogers (NSA), John Brennan (CIA), James Clapper (ODNI), Sally Yates (DOJ) and Susan Rice. At the conclusion of the briefing, President Obama asks Sally Yates and James Comey to remain. Together with Susan Rice, this is where the “by the book” comment comes into play. As recounted by Rice:

:''“President Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia.”''

The background context here is important. The outgoing Obama white house team knows what has taken place throughout. Obama's PDB's have included information about the Trump campaign officials who were under active surveillance. As the Trump transition team enters into office the FBI surveillance is still ongoing. The counterintelligence operation against the incoming administration, and every participating member, remains in full swing.

The day after Obama's oval office meeting, when President-elect Trump is briefed on the Steele Dossier, ODNI James Clapper and FBI Director James Comey cannot brief the target within their investigation on the granular material they used to gain the FISA warrant against the candidate who is now the President-elect.

Their target was Trump.

Trump is now the President-elect.

That's why Comey only briefed Trump on the salacious material... the ‘pee tapes’ and ‘Russian hookers’ nonsense was not part of the FISA application. The material that was part of the FISA application; the material that outlined candidate Trump as a target; was not shared with the President-elect because it would have amounted to Trump discovering the factual origin of an ongoing counterintelligence operation against him.

Simultaneous to this transition taking place, all the Trump officials within his team were still under an active FISA Title-One surveillance warrant. This surveillance also included the capture of all of their transition email accounts, the content was later given -without transition team approval- to Robert Mueller by the GAO. The legal authority for that controversial event was inside the FISA Title-One surveillance warrant.

The FISA warrant was reauthorized on January 12th, 2017, about a week before the inauguration of Trump with DAG Sally Yates and James Comey again approving.

In private White House strategy sessions Dana Milbank of the ''[[Washington Post]]'' reported Emanuel was bitterly opposed the effort to close the Guantanamo Bay prison early, arguing that it wasn't politically feasible. Obama overruled Emanuel. Emanuel fought against the plan to send [[Khalid Sheik Mohammed]] to New York for a trial. Emanuel lost. On health care Emanuel argued for a smaller bill with popular items that could win [[Republican]] support and opposed the public option as a needless distraction. Obama disregarded that strategy and sided with Congressional liberals who hoped to ram a larger, less popular bill through Congress with Democratic votes only. Milbank writes,
{{Cquote|Obama's first year fell apart in large part because he didn't follow his chief of staff's advice on crucial matters...Obama's problem is that his other confidants -- particularly Valerie Jarrett and Robert Gibbs, and, to a lesser extent, David Axelrod -- are part of the Cult of Obama.

===Cabinet===
Obama proceeded rapidly with cabinet choices. Obama has drawn heavily on [[Clinton Administration]] leaders to fill his Cabinet, along with Bush appointees Gates, Jones and Geithner. His national security team ([[Creepy Uncle Joe]] [[Biden]], Clinton, Gates, Jones) all supported the Iraq war, although Obama made opposition to the war central to his campaign. So far no leaders of the left-wing of the Democratic party have been appointed to any major position, which has stunned antiwar and left elements.

A growing failure of leadership emerged in the Treasury department in March, as it proved difficult to assemble a leadership team. Dozens of senior Treasury jobs are empty; apart from the Secretary, the first 3 names were sent to the Senate for confirmation on March 8 and two other top nominees withdrew their names. Secretary Geithner is overwhelmed with multiple major responsibilities without any senior officials in place. He does have about 50 informal aides. The result was poorly thought out proposals that won no support, and lengthy delays in responding to the increasingly serious financial crisis. Analysts debated whether the display of incompetence was due more to Geithner or the White House.

With a worldwide [[swine flu]] epidemic threatening, the Administration finally filled the job of Secretary of Health and Human Services on April 28. The flu epidemic petered out but policy initiative has been lagging because of the long delays in filling top posts. The confusion caused by weak leadership was underscored in November when runaway advisory boards recommended cutting back on health programs for women, such as mammograms, at a time conservatives were warning that medical care would be rationed under the proposed plans.

===Appointment scandals===
[[Image:Cabinet09.jpg|thumb|300px]]
Scandal has already tainted the cabinet. [[Bill Richardson]] was nominated for Secretary of Commerce but had to withdraw when he became a party to a criminal investigation. The nominee for Secretary of the Treasury, [[Timothy Geithner]], was confirmed after a humiliating televised session in which he admitted not paying $34,000 in federal income taxes. [[Tom Daschle]] withdrew his nomination as secretary of Health and Human Services because he had avoided $140,000 in federal taxes over a period of years, and paid them only after he had been named to the cabinet.<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/31/us/politics/31daschle.html?ref=us Robert Pear, "Use of Free Car Lands Tom Daschle in Tax Trouble," ''[[The New York Times]],'' Jan. 30, 2009]</ref>

Scandal also ruined the career of Nancy Killefer, nominated by President Obama to be the federal government's first chief performance officer. She too had evaded paying her taxes.

It was not a scandal but an embarrassment for Obama on Feb. 12, when New Hampshire Republican Senator Judd Gregg, who had agreed to join the cabinet as Secretary of Commerce, dropped out. Gregg cited irreconcilable differences, and observers pointed out that Obama's staff planned to take the 2010 Census out of the Commerce Department's jurisdiction, weakening the secretary and politicizing the census.

In July, [[Steven Rattner]], the czar for the auto industry who lead the Presidential task force that restructured General Motors and Chrysler, was forced to quit when he came under investigation for paying million-dollar bribes to get state business in his previous job. Rattner was to pay $6.2 million in a settlement with the [[Securities and Exchange Commission]] for his involvement in a New York State Pension Fund pay-to-play scandal.<ref>http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/cbc/101118/business/business_rattner_settles_sec</ref>

Even more damaging to liberal Democrats were scandals involving the Senate seats of Clinton and Obama himself. In New York Gov. [[David Paterson]] came to office in 2008 after a sex scandal forced the resignation of his predecessor. Paterson damaged himself and his Democratic party by dangling an appointment to Caroline Kennedy, who was unable to make up her mind. He finally rejected her and turned to the most conservative Democrat in the entire Northeast, Rep. [[Kirsten Gillibrand]]. She is a [[Blue Dog Democrat]] known for her defense of gun rights and opposition to the Obama stimulus package.

It was much worse in Illinois, after Gov. [[Rod Blagojevich]] (a Democrat) sought to sell the Obama seat. Obama refused to bargain, so Blagojevich tried to auction it off, and was caught in FBI wiretaps. He was arrested and will face criminal trial in federal court, and was promptly impeached by the state legislature, with all the conservatives and Republicans there unanimous in calling for his ouster. Before he was forced out, Blagojevich named a light-weight replacement, [[Roland Burris]]. Democrats in Washington at first promised they would keep Burris out because of his tainting by the governor's maneuvers; they relented and were forced to seat Burris.

Burris admitted in February that he lied under oath to the Illinois legislature about his contacts with Blagojevich. Calls have been made for a perjury investigation that may lead to Burris's expulsion from the Senate.<ref>Natasha Korecki and Dave McKinney, "Illinois lawmakers mull Burris perjury probe," [http://blogs.suntimes.com/sweet/2009/02/illinois_lawmakers_mull_burris.html ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'' Feb. 14, 2009]</ref>

[[Jobsgate]] refers to the scandal where former President [[Bill Clinton]] was asked by someone in the [[White House]] to offer Congressman [[Joe Sestak]] a federal job in exchange for his withdrawal from the [[Democratic]] primary election against incumbent U.S. [[Senator]] [[Arlen Specter]].<ref>Jeffrey Lord.

Former Obama [[HUD Secretary]] [[Julian Castro]] and Joe Biden sparred over who was the heir to the Obama legacy in the Democratic pre-primary [[2020 presidential election]] debates. Obama withheld his support from his former vice president, [[Biden's age]] presumably being the main factor.

===Supreme Court===
[[File:Sotomeyr2.jpg|thumb|250px|Sotomayor's parents came from Puerto Rico; her mother was a WAC in the US Army in World War II]]

Obama got an early pick for the Supreme Court when liberal Justice David Souter retired. He quickly names Court of Appeals Judge [[Sonia Sotomayor]] in May 2009. She was born to a poor family of migrants from Puerto Rico, and after attending Princeton and Yale Law School made it to the top through very hard work. She is the first American of Puerto Rican descent named to a high office on the mainland and her nomination marked a watershed in the national recognition and acceptance of all Latinos.

=== Michelle Obama's Healthy Eating Initiative ===

[[Michelle Obama]] made the liberal media news cycle by promoting healthy eating from the White House garden. The food network filmed “Iron Chef America" showcasing Michelle's healthy food, cooking five dishes using the secret ingredient: produce from the [[White House]] garden. The two-hour special showed the chefs picking sweet potatoes, broccoli, fennel and tomatillos from the White House garden. An issue came to light that the foods were actually prepared in [[New York City]], speculating that the entire show was just staged to look like produce from her garden.<ref>[http://michellemalkin.com/2010/01/14/everythings-staged-michelle-obamas-garden-food-was-fake/ Everything’s staged: Michelle Obama’s garden food was fake], [[Michelle Malkin]], January 14, 2010</ref> Also, her campaign against obesity has not stopped her and Barack from [http://conservapedia.com/Liberal_hypocrisy#The_Obamas_and_obesity taking their children out for ice cream while on vacation].

In Michelle Obama's first interview on the [[Fox News]] network, she would tout her responsible-eating initiative for kids. She would highlight the Obama Administration's $400 million Healthy Food Financing Initiative and her "Let's Move" campaign, which educates the danger of obese children and healthy eating.<ref>[https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE61I5E820100219 U.S. launches program to end "food deserts", February 19, 2010] [[Reuters]]</ref> She would tie the promises of the program to saying it would create 5000 jobs and pointed out that childhood obesity is a threat to national security. She urges children and parents to just skip "food desserts".

She would promote healthy eating initiatives for schools. Barack sought and passed legislation costing more than $4 billion. It is a horrible example of nanny state politics with draconian requirements on what can or cannot be sold at school bake sales and at the school cafeteria.

Beating of Victoria Lindsay

2021-05-15T04:50:11Z

Evadetyranny19: Fixed typo

The '''Beating of Victoria Lindsay''' was an event that took place in Lakeland, [[Florida]] in 2008 and a paradigm of [[public school]] violence that received national attention. Victoria Lindsay, then a [[Cheerleading|cheerleader]] at Mulberry High School, was beaten by fellow female students, and the incident was filmed and uploaded to [[YouTube]]. Victoria was badly injured and taken by ambulance to a [[hospital]]. Eight students were initially charged, but the charges were dropped on three of the accused. The remaining five, Brittany Mayes, Kayla Hassall, Mercades Nichols, April Cooper, and Brittini Hardcastle, all entered plea bargins on the [[battery]] and [[false imprisonment]] charges to get reduced sentences and to avoid conviction on the more serious [[kidnapping]] and [[witness tampering]] charges. There have been various speculations as to the motive, some saying that Victoria had been cyber-bullying the girls on [[Myspace]] while others claim that the girls did it solely for attention.

'''Microsoft''' is a liberal<ref>https://www.microsoft.com/about/diversity/en/us/programs/ergen/gleam.aspx</ref><ref>http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politicsnorthwest/2010011331_microsoft_donates_to_r-71_camp.html</ref> American corporation founded by [[Bill Gates]] and Paul Allen in 1975, headquartered in Redmond, Washington, USA. Its current CEO is Satya Nadella; [[Steve Ballmer]] was CEO prior to Nadella. Microsoft focuses on developing and manufacturing [[software]], [[hardware]] and other technology oriented products and services.

==History==
Microsoft was founded in 1975 by Gates and Allen, after Gates dropped out of Harvard because he had an intense fascination with computers. Microsoft is a portmanteau of "microcomputer" and "software."
==Software products==
*[[Windows (operating system)]], including [[Windows 10]], [[Windows 8]], [[Windows 7]], [[Windows Vista]], [[Windows XP]], and older versions of the desktop OS, versions for servers, versions for media centers, teacher editions, and versions for mobile devices

and hundreds more.

==Criticisms==
Microsoft was investigated for antitrust violations by the [[Department of Justice]], and in 2001 the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit affirmed the finding of the trial court that monopolization by Microsoft had violated the [[Sherman Act]].<ref>United States v. Microsoft Corp., 346 U.S. App. D.C. 330 (D.C. Cir. 2001).</ref> The appellate court, however, overturned the lower court ruling to break Microsoft up and instead remanded the case to a new trial judge with instructions suggesting a less drastic remedy. By then, President [[George W. Bush]] had replaced [[Bill Clinton]] and the Bush Administration dropped the demand of the [[Clinton Administration]] for a break-up of Microsoft.

Devoid of [[conservative]] leadership, has somewhat lost its competitive lead, and by 2014 it had been far surpassed by Apple, Google and smaller, innovative companies. In 2014, Microsoft announced layoffs of 14% of its workforce, totaling 18,000 jobs.<ref>https://www.businessinsider.com/microsoft-layoffs-2014-7?op=1</ref> However, this was only temporary. By 2019, they were thriving again, along with their liberal and selfish ways.

They hire massive numbers of people at high salaries, from around the world, and this drives the cost of housing up greatly. A 1,000 square foot house nearby, built 60 years ago, now sells in two days for $750,000.{{citation needed}} Plus, by bringing in so many people from around the world, there is tremendous overcrowding. So developers manipulate retail properties, and build massive apartment buildings, attracting Microsoft employees who often care nothing about the Eastside culture and dignity, and this causes the overcrowding and terrible traffic.
A ten-minute commute in 2015, can now be an hour.

Most people who have lived near Microsoft for years, are now reluctantly leaving their homes of many years because of the taxes, traffic, and the vast change in the caliber of people in the areas near Microsoft. Microsoft has begun a multi-billion dollar renovation of some buildings on the main campus. Nonetheless, some say that this overall liberal mentality has ruined the culture and lives of honest citizens within a ten-mile radius of Microsoft.

Microsoft was recently listed as one of numerous leftist-controlled companies that have gone "[[woke]]" and now support the criminal rioters of [[Antifa]] and [[Black Lives Matter]] in the wake of the [[2020 leftist riots]].<ref>[https://gab.com/a/posts/104311289660016704 Here Are The Companies That Support Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and Want You Dead] at Gab.com</ref>

Additionally, Microsoft has made in clear that they want to eliminate individual privacy online. For example, they announced in 2021 that their "Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity" (C2PA) was working on making every file traceable back to its original author. Under the guise of fighting "misinformation," this plan would apparently result in every image, video, audio clip, etc. bearing an embedded tag which identifies its original creator's true identity, if successfully implemented. With them in this effort are also a number of other tech companies, including [[Intel]] and [[Adobe Systems|Adobe]].<ref>Misinformationhttps://www.breitbart.com/tech/2021/02/25/bokhari-microsoft-and-friends-want-to-destroy-online-privacy/</ref>

== Windows ==
*''Main Article: [[Windows (operating system)]]
Windows is a series of operating systems produced and maintained by the Microsoft Corporation. It was estimated that as of December 2007 Microsoft Windows accounted for nearly 90% of operating system usage, with 3 out of 4 being Windows XP. Windows is used for desktop, and server computers, and more recently also for cellular phones and tablet computers. It is intended for use with the Intel x86-64 family of processors.
====Windows 1.0====
====Windows 2.0====
====Windows 3.0====
====Windows 95====
====Windows 98====
*''Main Article: [[Windows 98]]
Windows 98 is an operating system released by Microsoft on May 15, 1998. It was the successor to Windows 95 and the second major operating system in the Windows 9x series. It was succeeded by Windows 98 Special Edition and Windows ME. Microsoft ended support of Windows 98 in 2006.
====Windows NT====
====Windows 2000====
Windows 2000 was released on February 17, 2000 in Professional, Server, Advanced Server and Datacenter Server editions.

====Windows ME====
====Windows XP====
*''Main Article: [[Windows XP]]''
Windows XP is the penultimate significant release of the Microsoft Windows operating system, and was made available on October 25, 2001. "XP" stands for eXPerience.

Windows XP has been criticized for poor performance, significant security vulnerabilities, and poor DOS backwards compatibility, among others. Interestingly, when Windows Vista debuted, many organizations chose to retain XP in favor of the newer system, as it was perceived of as being of higher quality, though this was because Windows Vista had poor hardware driver support for computer technology at the time of its release and suffered poor memory optimization, which was eventually fixed with the first service pack update. To this day, the majority of professional networks run Windows XP, and many still run Windows 2000 Professional, including high security institutions like banks, hospitals, and government agencies. Institutions' hesitance to upgrade to newer operating systems is nothing new; many organizations continued to use DOS long after Windows became popular.

====Vista====
*''Main Article: [[Vista (operating system)]]''

Windows Vista was Microsoft's successor to Windows XP, superseded in 2009 by Windows 7. It came in 6 different versions: Ultimate, Home Premium, Home Basic, Starter, Business and Enterprise edition. All versions except Starter were available for both 32-bit and 64-bit processor types. Business users were also entitled to downgrade to Windows XP for compatibility with old applications.

====Windows 7====
*''Main Article: [[Windows 7]]''
Windows 7 (previously known as "Vienna" and before that, "Blackcomb") is the name for the version of Microsoft's Windows operating system preceding Windows 8, originally announced in February 2000, but was subject to major delays such as Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista (which was also delayed by XP SP2). "Seven" was released on October 22, 2009. Work on Windows 7 began right after Windows Vista was released. Some early details of a few core operating system features surfaced at developer conferences such as WHEC in 2006.
====Windows 8====
*''Main Article: [[Windows 8]]''
Windows 8 is the name of the an operating system in the Microsoft Windows line, preceding Windows 10. It is a "landmark development", in operating systems, made by Microsoft, trending towards a more "mobile phone" interface. Windows 8 is the first Microsoft operating system, with support for ARM processors, also trending towards the mobile phone market.
====Windows 10====
*''Main Article: [[Windows 10]]''
Microsoft Windows 10 is the latest edition of Microsoft Windows. The tech giant released '10' to the public August 2015. It is the first release after the failed rollout of Windows 8. The first time Microsoft has released a limited-offer free upgrade.

FUNimation

Evadetyranny19: /* Liberal Values */

FUNimation is an anime dubbing company that started out in 1994 dubbing [[anime]]. Their slogan is "You Should Be Watching". They're mostly known for their dubs of the [[Dragon Ball|Dragon Ball series]] and My Hero Academia.

== Origin ==
When they started, they worked with a company called Saban who did the same thing. They edited their anime for kids until 2003 when they released uncut dubs online. They still did edited Dragon Ball series up to 2014 when Dragon Ball Z Kai was finally released uncut on Toonami on [[Adult Swim]]. Before, DBZKai was edited for Nicktoons and 4kids as well as Vortexx.

== Liberal Values ==
Similar to [[The Walt Disney Company]], they were once good but since 2015, they became liberal and started inserting political agenda in some of their dubs<ref>Orselli, Brandon (October 2, 2015) [https://nichegamer.com/2015/10/02/funimation-distances-itself-from-writers-shoehorning-politics-into-english-dub-for-prison-school FUNimation Distances Itself from Writers Shoehorning Politics into English Dub for Prison School]]. ''Niche Gamer''. Retrieved March 13, 2020.</ref> such as their dub for Dragon Maid<ref>DefinitelyNotppleater (July 5, 2017) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrINOumUccA Difference between Kobayashi san Chi no Maid Dragon Sub & Dub Episode 12]]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved March 13, 2020.</ref>. People got upset but they still do it.

They Long time voice actor fired Vic Mignogna for false accusions.<ref>Radulovic Petrana (July 5, 2017) [https://www.polygon.com/2019/2/11/18220550/funimation-fires-vic-mignonga-sexual-harassment Funimation removes voice actor Vic Mignogna from anime, while harassment allegations keep growing]]. ''Polygon''. Retrieved March 13, 2020.</ref> He was a Christian. This led to a great conflict on social media between Vic's supporters and detractors. FUNimation even removed his credits claiming it was a mistake.

Fortunately, like [[The Walt Disney Company]], they still have apolitical stuff such as their dub for My Hero Academia.

== FUNimation Now ==
They have a streaming service called FUNimation Now which streams FUNimation shows. While the service haves some good shows, it has gone downhill.

They removed Interspecies Reviewers claiming it's "outside of our standards" which led to backlash and many cancelled their FUNimation Now service.<ref>Baculi, Spencer (Feburary 5, 2020) [https://boundingintocomics.com/2020/02/05/funimation-continues-to-receive-backlash-for-removing-interspecies-reviewers-as-new-claims-spark-speculation-on-reason-behind-decision/ Funimation Continues to Receive Backlash for Removing Interspecies Reviewers as New Claims Spark Speculation on Reason Behind Decision]].

It is certain the riots were non-spontaneous; the delivery of unbound pallets of bricks placed at strategic points in front of government buildings and affluent shopping districts in metropolitan areas throughout the country on the morning the riots broke out demonstrates a high degree of logistical coordination and financing.<ref>https://deepclips.com/clip/4951/insurrection-pallets-of-bricks-are-being-pre-staged-in-flashpoint-cities-across-the-country#top</ref> [[Community organizer]]s had been preparing for a violent uprising months in advance.

Democrat presidential nominee former [[Vice President]] [[Joe Biden]] made a particularly offensive and egregious [[racist]] comment toward [[African American]]'s during a radio interview.<ref>https://youtu.be/GaTv5FQHqVw</ref> Biden's comments were an effort at [[voter intimidation]]. [[Black Entertainment Television]] (BET) co-founder Bob Johnson called him out saying in part,

[[NBC]]'s ''America’s Got Talent'' host Terry Crews<ref>https://www.nbc.com/americas-got-talent/credits/host/terry-crews</ref> pointed out the inherent racism in the Democratic nominee's train of thought:
{{quotebox-float|“When you’re white, you can be Republican, [[Libertarian]], Democrat. You can be anything. But if you’re black, you have to be one thing.

Biden won the Democrat presidential nomination when South Carolina Rep. [[Jim Clyburn]] endorsed him, and the dominos of the Democrat machine fell into place. In short choreographed order, the remaining white candidates, Amy Klobuchar, [[Pete Buttigieg]], Tom Steyer, [[Michael Bloomberg]] and a host of local officials began goosestepping in lockstep. The minority candidates, [[Kamala Harris]], [[Cory Booker]], [[Julian Castro]], and [[Tulsi Gabbard]] had been driven out earlier in a rigged process that allowed rich white male billionaires - Steyer and Bloomberg - to buy their way into the process once all the people of color had been forced out.<ref>https://legalinsurrection.com/2020/02/michael-moore-goes-ballistic-on-dnc-for-changing-debate-rules-for-bloomberg/</ref> Clyborn admitted he cringed when he heard Biden's racist attack on Black people.<ref>https://youtu.be/HNgrTu1YhuU</ref>

The Democrats cynically tried to take advantage of George Floyd's killing, which occurred only days after Biden's racist comments, to repair his relations with Blacks by attacking the alleged [[systemic racism]] of police departments. Police groups and unions which Biden courted since the 1990s on behalf of the [[Democratic party]] and [[Clinton administration]] with the [[Biden Crime Bill]], mass incarceration, and effort to put 100,000 new cops on the street to deal with "Superpredators", responded by withdrawing their support.<ref>https://www.politico.com/news/2020/06/04/police-groups-joe-biden-300222</ref> ''Jacobin'' magazine summarized Biden's record: {{Quotebox-float|"It’s not as if Biden didn’t know what he was doing.... He just didn’t care. Biden had made a calculated decision that the elections he would win were worth the damage he inflicted....even if Biden has subsequently learned the error of his ways, the rank cynicism and callousness involved in his two-decade-long championing of carceral policies should be more than enough to give anyone pause about his qualities as a leader, let alone a progressive one."<ref>https://www.jacobinmag.com/2018/08/biden-crime-mass-incarceration-police-prisons</ref>}}
Lee Stranahan observed the organized George Floyd riots were an attempt to win the alienated white [[Bernie Sanders]] supporters back to the Democrat plantation.

Democrat lawmakers, led by House Speaker [[Nancy Pelosi]] and [[Karen Bass]] faced overwhelming backlash after wearing Kente cloth during their nearly nine-minute moment of silence in a [[photo-op]] staged to show their alleged sympathy for black victims of police brutality.

Kente reflects the history of the Ashanti people, from the emergence of the various Ashanti kingdoms to the development of the slave trade up to and including contemporary life in [[Ghana]].<ref>http://ultimatehistoryproject.com/kente-cloth-and-the-history-of-the-ashanti-people.html</ref>
Slavery was historically a tradition with the Ashanti, slaves typically taken as captives from enemies in warfare. The welfare of their slaves varied from being able to acquire wealth and intermarry with the master's family to being a human sacrifice in funeral ceremonies.<ref>[[Alfred Burdon Ellis]],
[https://archive.org/details/tshispeakingpeo01elligoog/page/n302  , ''The Tshi-speaking peoples of the Gold Coast of West Africa''] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160610125849/https://books.google.com/books?id=jtMSAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA290 |date=2016-06-10 }}, 1887. p. 290</ref><ref>Rodriguez, Junius P. ''The Historical Encyclopedia of World Slavery, Volume 1'', 1997. p. 53.</ref>

By the early 1800s the Ashanti had become a major [[export]]er of enslaved people. The slave trade was originally focused north with captives going to Mande and Hausa traders who exchanged them for goods from [[North Africa]] and indirectly from [[Europe]]. By 1800, the trade had shifted to the south as the Ashanti sought to meet the growing demand of the British, Dutch, and French for captives. In exchange, the Ashanti received luxury items and some manufactured goods including most importantly [[firearm]]s. The consequence of this trade for the Ashanti and their neighbors was horrendous. From 1790 until 1896, the Ashanti were in a perpetual state of war involving expansion or defense of its domain. Most of these wars afforded the opportunity to acquire more slaves for trade.<ref>https://www.blackpast.org/global-african-history/ashanti-empire-asante-kingdom-18th-late-19th-century/</ref>

The modern-day Ashanti claim that slaves were seldom abused,<ref>Johann Gottlieb Christaller,
''Ashanti Proverbs: (the primitive ethics of a savage people)'', 1916, pp. 119-20.</ref> and defend the "humanity" of Ashanti slavery by noting that those slaves were allowed to marry, and that their children were born free.<ref name="History of the Ashanti Empire">

CNN analyst [[Van Jones]] summarized sentiments in the Black community days after Floyd's death:
{{quotebox|"It's not the racist white person who is in the [[Ku Klux Klan]] that we have to worry about. It's the white liberal [[Hillary Clinton]] supporter walking her dog in [[Central Park]] who would tell you right now, you know, people like that, 'I don't see race, race is no big deal to me, I see us all as the same, I give to charities,' but the minute she sees a black man who she does not respect or who she has a slight thought against, she weaponized race like she had been trained by the [[Aryan nation]].<ref>https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/central-park-karen</ref> A Klansmember could not have been better trained to pick up her phone and tell the police a black man, African-American man, come get him.

So even the most liberal well-intentioned white person has a [[virus]] in his or her brain that can be activated at an instant. And so what you're seeing now is a curtain falling away. And those of us who have been burdened by this every minute, every second of our entire lives are fragile right now. We are fragile right now. We are tired. And so I appreciate people who have been reaching out, I've had people reaching out to me for two days now, expressing their empathy and sympathy.

My only prayer, look in the mirror at how you choke off black opportunity. How you choke off black dignity. How you behave in ways that make it harder for African-Americans to rise in your profession, in your place of work, on your campus, in your house of worship, and start working on that.

===Amy Klobuchar===
[[File:Harris Mpls riot.jpeg|right|300px|thumb|Sen. [[Kamala Harris]] solicited bail money for the [[terrorist]]s who burnt down the [[Minneapolis]] Police Station.]]
Alleged "centrist" [[Amy Klobuchar]], who ranks high on Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden's short list of VP choices, was the Minneapolis Hennepin County prosecutor prior to being elected by the longtime [[communist]] infiltrated [[Democrat Farm Labor]] party senator from Minnesota. Klobuchar handled a case involving the same police officer charged in the death of [[George Floyd]]. When exposed for protecting racist cops, Klobuchar blamed the [[Bill of Rights]] for not indicting the same cop accused of killing George Floyd in the death of another black man in 2006.<ref>https://www.nysun.com/editorials/amy-klobuchar-blames-the-bill-of-rights/91150/</ref>

Earlier in 2020 the [[NAACP]] and [[Black Lives Matter]] called on Klobuchar to withdraw her presidential bid due to her racist prosecution in a 2003 murder case resulting in a life sentence for an innocent black man.<ref>http://www.startribune.com/activists-call-on-amy-klobuchar-to-withdraw-over-2003-murder-case/567397292/</ref> As district attorney, Klobutcher built her career prosecuting a vastly disproportionate number of black youths.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1s0W1-ILBT4</ref>

Klobuchar's racist views are in keeping with her opposition to [[due process]] rights and her [[anti-constitutionalist]] ideology.

With Klobuchar forced out of contention and her appeal to Blacks tainted, the [[liberal media]] re-booted [[Stacey Abrams]] of [[Georgia]] as the top contender for the Number 2 spot. A much touted Biden/Abrams "dream ticket" had already been peddled "out of the gate" even before Biden announced his candidacy in the Spring of 2019.<ref>https://www.axios.com/2020-presidential-election-joe-biden-stacey-abrams-vp-54472f8f-5bb2-4d1f-bc7c-0544a09ebba5.html</ref> Abrams supposedly is representative the vital Black female vote that Democrats relied upon to win back the [[House of Representatives|House]] in the [[2018 Midterm elections]]. Abrams has proven herself a loyal dogface pony soldier shilling for the [[Democrat plantation]], attacking [[Tara Reade]]'s credibility, with the added bonus of poo-pooing the "Believe All Women" and [[MeToo movement]]s. Racist Biden's staffers quietly and ironically told journalists behind Abrams back, 'no one takes Stacey seriously'.<ref>https://nypost.com/2020/05/02/the-powerful-female-democrats-angling-for-biden-administration-hjobs/</ref>

===Keith Ellison===
[[Keith Ellison]] was actively opposed by the Minneapolis Police Officers Federation when he ran for Minnesota Attorney General in 2018. Bad blood has existed between the police officer's union and Ellison since the 1990s when Ellison, as a private attorney, defended a gang leader implicated in the public execution of a Minneapolis police officer.<ref>https://theminnesotasun.com/2018/11/04/minneapolis-police-make-final-plea-dont-vote-for-gang-attorney-keith-ellison/</ref> Ellison's sympathy for cop killers has been accentuated by his close association with the leader of [[Portland]]'s notoriously violent, [[homophobic]], and racist Antifa faction.<ref>https://youtu.be/YECDzSn7co8</ref> As congressman and Attorney General, Ellison promoted Antifa and political violence.<ref>https://bigleaguepolitics.com/busted-keith-ellison-photographed-with-portland-antifa-leader-deletes-pro-antifa-tweet/</ref> Antifa has been designated as a domestic terrorist organization by the [[Department of Homeland Security]].<ref>https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/9/2/1695501/-Homeland-Security-has-named-AntiFA-as-a-domestic-terrorist-organization</ref>

Ellison is a former [[Democrat National Committee]] vice chair and congressman who gave up his seat to [[Ilhan Omar]] to run for Minnesota Attorney General. His son is on the Minneapolis City Council that wants to disband the city's police department.

As Attorney General Ellison overcharged the accused police officers, setting up future riots when and if the accused officers are exonerated.<ref>https://youtu.be/SETEqKnXug4</ref> ''[[Newsweek]]'' reported shortly after charges were filed, ''Prosecutors of George Floyd Police Officers Will Struggle to Get Four Convictions''.<ref>https://www.newsweek.com/prosecutors-george-floyd-police-officers-will-struggle-get-four-convictions-1509258</ref>

The [[Democratic Socialists of America]] (DSA) has 600 comrades in the [[Twin Cities]] who work closely with Antifa aligned groups. On May 27, 2020 the Twin Cities DSA issued a call on [[Twitter]] asking comrades for supplies at the same intersection where the Auto Zone was burned to the ground kicking off the nationwide riots.

On May 30, journalist [[Andy Ngo]] tweeted:
{{quotebox-float|“We are witnessing glimpses of the full insurrection the [[far-left]] has been working on for decades.

Ngo later added:
{{quotebox|“Media, politicians, public—all of us—have underestimated the training, purpose & capability of left-wing extremists. Every part of the rioting has a purpose. Fires destroy economy. Riots can overwhelm police & even military. All of it leads to a destabilized state if maintained.”}}
In [[Marxist–Leninist]] and [[Maoist]] theory, a [[United front]] is a [[coalition]] of [[leftist]] organizations that [[collude]] for the purpose of taking over a [[government]]. In the [[116th Congress]], the [[Committees of Correspondence for Democratic Socialism]], Democratic Socialists of America, [[Liberation Road]] (formerly Freedom Road Socialist Organization), and Communist Party of the United States formally created a united front of the nation's four largest Communist organizations to take over the [[Democratic Party]].<ref>https://m.theepochtimes.com/how-57000-socialists-and-communists-plan-to-take-over-the-democratic-party_2654589.html</ref> As of 2018 the umbrella group is known as the [[Left Inside/Outside Project]] (“One foot in the institutions, one foot in the streets.”<ref>https://dsabuild.org/r9-establishing-a-national-antifascist-and-direct-action-working-group</ref>) consisted of 57,000 [[community organizer]]s.<ref>https://organizingupgrade.com/the-left-we-want/</ref> At its August 2019 convention the DSA passed a resolution to form a

Law enforcement authorities found evidence of pre-planning. The ''Minneapolis Star/Tribune'' reported:
{{quotebox|state officials said several caches of flammable materials were found both in neighborhoods where there have already been fires and “in cars we’ve stopped as recently as this morning,” said John Harrington, state public safety commissioner. Some of the caches look like they may have been planted days ago and some only in the last 24 hours or so, he said.

Police are also finding stolen vehicles with plates removed that are being used to transport the flammable materials.

The [[Sunrise Movement]], with established groups in several major cities, has heavily recruited activists from the DSA and Liberation Road affiliated groups, such as the Pennsylvania Student Power Network. Sunrise founding activists are all current trainers with Momentum Community, which is a training workshop funded by millionaires and billionaires to “incubate” supposed "[[grassroots]]" organizations such as Sunrise and the Movimiento Cosecha (Harvest Movement). Democrat millionaire donor and former 2020 presidential election candidate [[Tom Steyer]]'s [[NextGen America]] is also tied to the Sunrise Movement, and according to the ''New York Times'', the two groups “strategize” together.<ref>https://archive.fo/ytfYT</ref>

The DSA itself as of 2020 has 66,000 members nationwide and locals in almost every state. Other communist groups such as Communist Party USA, Liberation Road, [[Socialist Alternative]], Workers World Party, Party for Socialism and Liberation, [[Socialist Unity Party]], and Revolutionary Communist Party and their allies in Black Lives Matter and [[Antifa]] can mobilize tens of thousands of militants and organizing cadre at short notice. The American [[Left]] has the power to start race riots in nearly every major U.S. city. DSA branches in [[Memphis]], [[Los Angeles]], [[Brooklyn]], [[Louisville]], [[Philadelphia]], and [[Richmond]] are raising funds for “George Floyd Uprisings Nationwide.”<ref>https://www.dsa-la.org/support_floyd_protests_nationwide</ref>

==New York insurgency: Obama subversives toss Molotov cocktails at police==

[[NBC News]] reported that New York's Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence and Counterterrorism said there is a high level of confidence within the New York Police Department (NYPD) that rioters had organized scouts, medics, and supply routes of rocks, bottles and accelerants to commit vandalism and violence. There are strong indicators they planned for violence in advance while using encrypted communications. NYPD has received intelligence that U-Haul trucks with NJ registrations were aiding looters and vandals by transporting stolen goods and criminal actors.<ref>https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1267877057817698305</ref>

NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea explained how bricks and water bottles filled with cement had been thrown at NYPD members. Shea wrote that construction sites in the city have had bricks stolen from them.
{{quotebox-float|“Pre-staged bricks are being placed and then transported to ‘peaceful protests,’ which are peaceful protests, but then used by that criminal group within. We’ve had construction sites burglarized in recent days in Manhattan … during a riot, it’s interesting what was taken – bricks.”<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/politics/feds-investigating-whether-criminal-actors-exerting-command-and-control-over-unrest-as-bricks-thrown-at-copsM</ref>}}

Teams of looters armed with power tools systematically worked together to loot one location after another. A neighborhood eyewitness stated,
{{quotebox|“Cars would drive up, let off the looters, unload power tools and suitcases and then the cars would drive away. Then the cars would come back pick them up and then drive off to the next spot. They seemed to know exactly where they were going.

One out of every seven arrests in [[New York City]] were of people from out of state. Those arrested came from [[Massachusetts]], [[Connecticut]], [[Pennsylvania]], [[New Jersey]], [[Iowa]], [[Nevada]], [[Virginia]], [[Maryland]], [[Texas]] and St. Paul, Minnesota. The Police Commissioner estimated at least 20% of arrests were from out of town. Democrat mayor [[Bill de Blasio]]'s daughter was among those arrested along with others for acts of violence. The counterterrorism deputy commissioner told [[NBC News]],
{{quotebox|"Before the protests began, organizers of certain anarchists groups set out to raise bail money and people who would be responsible to be raising bail money, they set out to recruit medics and medical teams with gear to deploy in anticipation of violent interactions with police.

{{quotebox-float|over 100 police showed up last night but essentially did nothing to stop the looting. Their passivity is extraordinary. The idea seems to be that it’s better to allow the looting than to prevent it. It’s an odd mindset: the criminal gets to set the terms of the encounter.
Downtown Washington resembles a war zone rather than the nation’s capital.

Lafayette Square, right across from the White House, is a disgusting mess. The protestations of the protesters extended to defacing statues of the likes of Polish [[Tadeusz Kosciuszko|Col. Andrzej Tadeusz Bonawentura Kosciuszko]] who fought in the [[American Revolutionary War]] in the [[Continental Army]]. The ubiquitous ‘f*** 12’ was sprayed in black on the plinth. Rather rough treatment, I should think, for a [[Polish]] [[freedom fighter]] against the Russians who also directed in his will that the proceeds of his American estate be used to procure the freedom of American [[slave]]s, including ones that his friend [[Thomas Jefferson]] owned.

As the acrid stench of smoke lingered in the air from a fire at the venerable St John’s Church, I strolled over to the middle of the park to look at a Secret Service structure that was covered with such pearls of wisdom as ‘F*** AmericaKKKa’. Buildings, including the [[Department of Veterans Affairs]], had smashed windows. The old standby, ‘eat the rich’, was sprayed near the Bombay Club. Clean-up crews were everywhere, performing the laborious task of effacing, as far as possible, the slogans that had been scribbled to liberate America.<ref>https://spectator.us/washington-war-zone-vandalism-protests/</ref>}}

"Protesters" took over the [[CNN]] headquarters in [[Atlanta]].<ref>https://youtu.be/GwMxzWqh5q4</ref> Rapper #KillerMike delivered a message to CNN:

[[File:CNN racist.jpeg|right|300px|thumb|Consistent with their racist editorial policy, CNN built a wall to keep unwanted intruders out.]]
A rift has developed between peaceful [[Black Lives Matter]] protesters and the violent white liberal domestic terrorist organization, Antifa and other similar groups.<ref>https://www.theblaze.com/news/2017/08/21/antifa-thug-attacks-black-lives-matter-member-in-dallas</ref><ref>https://www.redstate.com/brandon_morse/2020/05/28/peaceful-black-protester-shuts-down-antifa-after-they-tried-to-get-violent/</ref> The Antifa Manual specifically instructs members to target Black Lives Matter and immigrant rights groups for subversive infiltration.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/TheTwitterFeed/comments/gul0yk/jackposobiec_the_antifa_manual_specifically/</ref> White liberal [[anarchist]]s and [[socialist]]s from the Antifa terrorist organization piggy-back on peaceful [[civil rights]] protests, acting as the [[provocateur]]s of violence. This occurs in cities throughout the United States. Consequently, Blacks as a whole are blamed for rioting, looting, and violence. Then Blacks are reminded by the [[Democrat plantation]] establishment, "if you don't vote Democrat, you ain't Black".

Metro Atlanta [[DSA]] was involved in the lawlessness. Dozens of cars were burnt and destroyed near CNN headquarters.<ref>https://streamable.com/ubjohz</ref> Two black police officers were fired for tazzing a white riot protester.<ref>https://dmlnewsapp.com/video-attorney-fired-police-officers-says-bodycam-footage-incident-edited-multiple-times/</ref> In what can only be described as "institutional white flight", CNN's parent company Time Warner announced in the following days its intention to bail on the property and move their subversive communist propaganda headquarters to a civilized environment after having accomplished their objective of creating poverty and misery for the oppressed Black people of Atlanta.

When a drunk driver attempted to taze police with a stolen weapon and was shot and killed at a ''Wendy's'' restaurant, a communist white woman tried to burn down the Wendy's.<ref>https://youtu.be/VlSi2MT3Xgk</ref><ref>https://www.citizenfreepress.com/column-1/breaking-video-atlanta-wendys-set-on-fire-by-rioters/</ref> The rioters then turned on CNN cameramen.<ref>https://thepoliticalinsider.com/video-shows-atlanta-rioters-attacking-cnn-crew-outside-of-wendys-where-rayshard-brooks-was-shot/</ref>

Video footage from the police bodycam and a nearby witness makes it clear that Brooks resisted arrest after failing a breathalyzer test when police approached him sleeping in his car at a Wendy's parking lot, punching an officer and taking a taser the police had attempted to use on him before trying to flee the scene. Video footage from the parking lot makes it clear that Brooks was running away, and, without ceasing to run, pointed the taser at police behind him, at which point he was shot twice in the back by an officer.

Fulton County prosecutor [[Paul Howard]], a 28-year [[incumbent]], was presently under investigation for taking bribes.<ref>https://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/fulton-county-da-faces-election-runoff-battle-while-under-state-investigation/7ACT6BS25ZBCLHOOPT6C36I644/</ref> Nine days earlier Howard finished second in a [[primary election]] and forced into a runoff election. Howard then filed felony murder charges against the officer involved in the shooting.

After a prolonged siege the Seattle Police Department abandoned its East Precinct building. In a private message to the department, Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best passed the buck upstairs:
{{quotebox-float|“You fought for days to protect it. I asked you to stand on that line day in and day out, to be pelted with projectiles, to be screamed at, threatened, and in some cases hurt. Then to have a change of course nearly two weeks in — it seems like an insult on our community.”<ref>https://www.capitolhillseattle.com/2020/06/seattle-police-chief-speaks-out-on-chaz-leaving-the-precinct-was-not-my-decision/</ref>}}
Several hundred demonstrators, led by Seattle City Council [[Socialist Alternative]]<ref>Socialist Alternative is a [[Trotsky]]ite organization.</ref> Kshama Sawant, occupied City Hall calling for the resignation of Democrat mayor [[Jenny Durkan]] and the [[defund the police|defunding of the Seattle Police Department]] after a march from the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone. Sawant was backed by [[Democratic Socialists of America]] (DSA).<ref>https://keywiki.org/File:Zshama.PNG</ref> The DSA provided logistical support for the [[riot]]s.<ref>https://www.theepochtimes.com/the-communist-origins-of-the-antifa-extremist-group_2282816.html</ref> Sawant called for the importance of Black LGBTQIA+ women and other issues. At City Hall another speaker decried Sawant's co-opting of the movement to push her own agenda.
{{quotebox|“Please stop using [[Black Lives Matter]] for your political campaigns....I’m really sorry, I want to tax [[Amazon.com|Amazon]] too, I want to do all these things too, but this is not a movement for you to be politically active, for you to be [[politically correct]], and for you to gain all these votes. Please stop taking advantage of us.”}}
The speaker noted the whiteness of many speakers at recent protests. Protesters left City Hall chanting "Defund SPD" and headed back to the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, where protesters watched ''13th'', a documentary on the [[The New Jim Crow]].

A two-hour rally of an estimated 2,000 protesters gathered in the rain for a community meeting hosted by Sawant.
{{quotebox|“What we’ve defeated here is the political establishment of this city....You can never have zero police and an elimination of racism and oppression on the basis of capitalism."}}
A 30-point list of demands was published. “We demand the de-gentrification of Seattle, starting with rent control," etc.

Community members were subjected to barricades set up by the protesters with some armed individuals running them as checkpoints in the neighborhood, a police spokesman said. “While they have a constitutionally protected right to bear arms there is no legal right for those arms to be used to intimidate community members.” Residents described a small number of people armed with rifles who have been seen serving as guards. Many businesses and residential buildings in the so-called CHAZ hired private security staff. The entire area was lawless, and residents were left to fend for themselves. A social media posting from inside the illegally occupied territory read,
{{quotebox|"Due to the police not being able to respond for fear of reprisal and the shear amount of police resources required that makes it possible to have any presents in our area, residents needed to have an emergency plan that does not involve 911.

In [[Boston]], [[Progressive]]s defaced the 54th Regiment Memorial to black soldiers in the [[Civil War]] as Antifa protests moved through the city. A website dedicated to the memorial, which stands at the top of a hill on the Boston Common, explains:
{{Quotebox-float|The most acclaimed piece of sculpture on Boston Common is the Robert Gould Shaw and Massachusetts 54th Regiment Memorial by Augustus Saint-Gaudens; a memorial to that group of men who were among the first African Americans to fight in the Civil War. The monument portrays Shaw and his men marching down Beacon Street past the State House on May 28, 1863 as they left Boston on their way to South Carolina, Shaw erect on his horse, the men marching alongside.}}
The monument, which commemorates black lives dedicated and sacrificed to the struggle against slavery, was defaced with profane anti-police graffiti, as well as tributes to [[George Floyd]].<ref>https://www.westernjournal.com/rioters-deface-monument-black-civil-war-veterans-served-union/</ref> The story of the 54th was immortalized in the Hollywood movie ''Glory'', for which [[Denzel Washington]] received the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.

A Black officer from the [[Department of Homeland Security]] was [[murder]]ed and another officer shot.<ref>https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/east-bay/one-of-two-federal-officers-shot-friday-night-dies-from-injuries/2299729/</ref><ref>https://nypost.com/2020/05/30/federal-police-officer-shot-dead-another-injured-in-oakland/</ref>

Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf ordered a [[hate crime]] investigation after Oakland Police identified five ropes they described as “nooses” hanging from trees at Lake Merrit, with the city government apparently believing that the ropes were akin to racial intimidation tactics and allusions to [[lynching]]s carried out by groups such as the Ku Klux Klan. The FBI was called in support of the investigation. A black man stepped forward stating that he and some of his friends installed the rope and small nooses merely for use as swings and exercise equipment. The nooses were used to attach a makeshift swing. “It’s unfortunate that a genuine gesture of just wanting to create a good time got misinterpreted," stating that he couldn't see how anyone would view the small ropes as a hangman's noose. The Democrat mayor however, refused to accept the word of a Black man and continued to claim the findings are indicative of a hate crime and continued the [[witchhunt]] for white supremacists invading Oakland.<ref>https://bigleaguepolitics.com/racial-panic-erupts-in-oakland-over-nooses-that-were-actually-exercise-equipment/</ref>

==St. Louis: Socialists murder retired Black police captain==

Progressive rioters murdered 77 year old retired Black Police Captain [[David Dorn]] working as a private security guard.<ref>https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jun/2/donald-trump-pays-tribute-david-dorn-retired-st-lo/</ref> The shooting and theft was posted on [[Facebook]] Live. Dorn served on the [[St. Louis]] police force for 38 years. Dorn’ s personality was described as “bigger than life...a fun guy, a happy guy....He wanted them to do the right thing all the time." The Ethical Society of Police, which represents black officers in St. Louis, said in a news release that Dorn was “the type of brother that would’ve given his life to save them if he had to.”<ref>https://news.immitate.com/2020/06/03/beloved-st-louis-police-captain-killed-amid-unrest/</ref> Neighborhoods were set on fire.<ref>https://streamable.com/8lnd7v</ref>

Soros funded St. Louis Circuit Attorney [[Kim Gardner]], the city's prosecutor, said she would investigate a white couple for having the audacity to protect their home from violent Black Lives Matter thugs who tore down a gate and stormed their property. Gardner issued a search warrant to confiscate the firearms the couple used to defend themselves.

Steven Lopez, a Black Lives Matter protester, was arrested for inciting a riot, disorderly conduct, harassment and possession of drug paraphernalia. His citation noted he was in possession of a handgun "with two full mags of ammo" at the time of the arrest. He was released. Ten days later Lopez was arrested again for murder and first-degree wanton endangerment. The murder victim was another Black Lives Matter protester.

===Party for Socialism and Liberation===
The [[Marxist-Leninist]] pro-[[China]], [[Iran]], [[North Korea]], [[Cuba]], [[Venezuela]], and [[Russia]], [[Party for Socialism and Liberation]] has chapters in about 30 states. They also seek to exploit the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis Police, referring to this time in history as an “absolutely critical period” to impose their vision of a [[communist]] [[revolution]]:
{{quotebox|“The police will always fulfill their role of being shock troops for white supremacy and capitalism as long as it exists in this racist state.

“In this absolutely critical period, we sharpen our resolve to build organizations capable of waging militant [[class struggle]] against the racist state and their ruling class. … Amidst the deep crisis, the racist killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery in Brunswick, Georgia, Breonna Taylor in Louisville, Ky. and Sean Reed in Indianapolis, Ind., make it clear that the protests and fight back must continue and intensify.”<ref>https://www.liberationnews.org/psl-statement-justice-for-george-floyd/</ref>}}

===Revolutionary Communist Party===
[[File:RCP USA.jpeg|right|150px]]
The [[Revolutionary Communist Party]] used the death of George Floyd at the hands of [[Minneapolis]] Police to call for “a movement for an actual [[revolution]].” They issued communique #6 titled, “Police murder after murder after murder… To YOU who are sick and tired of the madness, and ready to be part of a movement for an ACTUAL REVOLUTION”:
{{quotebox-float|“If you’re sick of watching video after video of these murders by police … you need to … join with a movement for an actual revolution, to prepare for a time when it will be possible to lead millions to bring this system down, and replace it with a new society based on the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America.”<ref>https://revcom.us/a/649/communique-6-police-murder-after-murder-after-murder-en.html</ref>}}

===Workers World Party===
Monica Moorehead of the [[Workers World Party]] (WWP) wrote an article May 28, 2020 titled, ''Against police violence and capitalism, to rebel is justified:''
{{quotebox|“Workers World salutes all the brave protesters in [[Minneapolis]], currently ground zero against police terror. We also salute those activists in [[Los Angeles]], [[Memphis]] and other cities who are organizing protests and braving the [[pandemic]] to be in the streets or in car caravans to show solidarity with the demand: Justice for George Floyd and all victims of police violence.”}}
Moorehead goes on to quote WWP founder Sam Marcy's defense of the 1992 Los Angeles riots—in which 63 people died:
{{quotebox|“In times when the [[bourgeoisie]] is up against the wall, when the masses have risen suddenly and unexpectedly, the bourgeoisie gets most lyrical in abjuring violence. It conjures up all sorts of lies and deceits about the unruliness of a few among the masses as against the orderly law-abiding many.

“[[Marxism]] here again cuts through it all. The Marxist view of [[violence]] distinguishes between the violence of the oppressors as against the responsive violence of the masses. Just to be able to formulate it that way is a giant step forward, away from disgusting bourgeois praise for nonviolence. It never occurs to any of them to show that the masses have never made any real leap forward with the theory of nonviolence. Timidity never made it in history.”<ref>https://www.workers.org/2020/05/49008/</ref>}}

For much of the 20th century, [[Detroit]] was the fourth largest city in the United States. Today it ranks as the 18th largest. Since five days of looting and burning in 1967, Detroit lost 60% of its population. Detroit never recovered from its riots. And unlike Minneapolis in 2020, Detroit in 1967 did not have elected officials sympathetic to lawlessness during and after the riots.

[[Dianne Feinstein]] whose rise came on the heels of the Moscone/Milk murders. The Moscone/Milk murders and the tragedy at [[Jonestown]] are intimately connected in San Francisco's [[Progressive]] [[Democratic party]],<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzyXNWYmfXg Jim Jones, The Most Admired Democrat of The 1970s, Censored Info], youtube</ref> a fact kept hidden by the [[mainstream media]] for decades.]] "the viral videos of white millennials kneeling and confessing their privilege, are the [[People's Temple]] writ large on a nation. Jones, the son of a Klansman, who was inspired by a Communist-allied cult to build a following as a Marxist preacher of interracial brotherhood, joining the California Democrat establishment before going down in flames, has once again become the future....

The Peoples Temple used the [[moral]] drama of racism to create a racial conflict, playing on the guilt of white people and the fears of black people to divide them, threatening apocalypse and offering redemption through socialism. Racism was the source of Jones’ power. It was the primal sin and fear that he held over the heads of his followers to incite them to commit horrible crimes against each other....

There is no meaningful reckoning that Americans can make with 1619, but it is vitally important that there be a reckoning with the seventies as Jonestown is becoming a statewide and nationwide model....

The ultimate victims of Jonestown were largely black. That’s also true of the Democrat Party.

Jim Jones was the first to turn racism into a [[religion]]. The end of the Peoples Temple and Jonestown are instructive now that racism has become the national religion of Jones’ Democrat Party. The cult leader had told his followers that God was socialism and that a man was as godly as he embodied socialism. And Jones was the ultimate divinity because he was the embodiment of the Principle of Socialism which alone could reconcile the races and all of humanity to paradise by becoming the gods of socialism....

The Democrats and their [[media]] are telling the nation that burning and looting cities is the path to utopia....

Like [[Jim Jones]], the Democrats have no vision or [[hope]] to offer. Utopia has been replaced with pain and death. The screams of hate and the wrecked blocks in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco are the nation’s Jonestowns. The country’s biggest cities have become failed experiments in social justice where the socialist cant is preached all the louder even as things only get worse.....

The arc of history points not to progress, but to [[Jonestown]]. The Joneses are torturing their followers with pandemic lockdowns, rioting, economic destruction, environmental impoverishment, and cultural collapse to sate their own sadistic impulses and to divert attention from the failures of their ideas.

All that’s left now is the grim death march through the opening of prisons, the normalization of crime, the [[Green New Deal]], socialized medicine, and the random crises met with tyranny on the way to utopia. At the end, the men and women who had followed Jones realized that the promise of a socialist kingdom of heaven on earth was a lie. There was no food. [[Bible]]s were being torn up for toilet paper. The only escape from the misery was death. That is also the great leftist vision for [[western civilization]]....

“There’s scientific consensus that the lives of children are going to be very difficult. And it does lead young people to have a legitimate question: Is it OK to still have children?” [[Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]] wondered.

The Democrats have perfected Jones’ trick of using racial guilt to empower a white elite to carry out the socialist schemes that make them feel like gods even as they impoverish, enslave, and destroy. But, just like in Jonestown, all anyone has to do is look at the carnage and ask, “Is this progress? Where’s utopia?” Are the burning cities, the kneeling mobs, and the terrorized people really leading to utopia?

Jim Jones was the socialist son of a Klansman who exploited and killed hundreds of black people. The Democrats are the socialist party of the Klan who exploited and killed hundreds of thousands of black people. When the Democrats claim to care about black lives, they take them in horrifying numbers."<ref>https://www.dcclothesline.com/2020/06/21/the-jonestowning-of-america/</ref>}}

===SDS, WUO, and Black Panthers reborn===
Antifa has a hundred-year plan in which they want to transform the United States into exactly the opposite of what it has been. Antifa has rallied an army around its objectives. People who "identify" as straight, white, males are excluded, and are being targeted clearly as the enemy, whom they deem as "fascists" and "colonizers", and whom they seek to eliminate.<ref>https://www.intellihub.com/intellihubs-shepard-ambellas-reveals-antifa-playbook-must-watch/</ref>

Antifa has drawn on the organizing principles and game plan of the [[SDS]], [[Weather Underground]] (WUO), and [[Black Panthers]] of the 1960s. Like the SDS, WUO, and Black Panthers they seek violent Marxist, and Maoist, revolution. The SDS was a million member band of students, predominantly white, from which a few hardcore, violent radicals were recruited which constituted the Weather Underground. Under Marxist and Maoist theory of communist revolution, the Black Panthers were designated as the spearhead of the revolution, with the predominantly white WUO and SDS as "support" groups.

Copying the 1960s model, Antifa is the modern violent, predominantly white, support group to the spearhead of Marxist revolution, Black Lives Matter. All these groups trace their organization and ideals from the veritable ant heap of American [[communist front]] organizations over the past fifty-plus years.

Marxist revolution in the 1960s and 1970s in America failed; however through tutoring and mentoring from oldtime believers, true dedicated Marxist revolutionaries study and learn from their previous failures. The question America faces today is, are the ordinary people who believe in democracy, freedom, and the goodness of America willing to stand up to senseless violence and criminals, and their corporate sponsors, who have the police and taxpaying citizens intimidated? Are Americans in 2020 willing to lay down and be slaves to communism? This is the objective that these [[community organizer]]s have been working toward for decades.
{{quotebox|"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.

The attacks on the family and church are completed. The takeover of education and brainwashing in schools is complete. All that remains is violence in the street, and eliminating the enemies of revolution, which has already occurred in countless [[nation state]]s on the planet over the past 100 years. Now America faces on its own shores what it has fought to protect other peoples overseas from for the past century.

===Color revolutions are not about color===
Linda Goudsmit writes:<ref>http://goudsmit.pundicity.com/24540/color-revolutions-are-not-about-color</ref>
{{quotebox|[[Color revolution]] is a known tactical CIA operation that uses a seemingly spontaneous act as the precipitating event to destabilize a country and effect regime change. Color revolution is what is happening in America, and its front line soldiers are Antifa and Black Lives Matter (BLM).

"''America's Own Color Revolution''," a June 29, 2020, Geopolitics article explains how "Hundreds of thousands of young Americans are being used as a battering ram to not only topple a U.S. President, but in the process, the very structures of the U.S. Constitutional order."<ref>https://geopolitics.co/2020/06/29/americas-own-color-revolution/</ref>

The organization Black Lives Matter (BLM) is not about black lives. BLM is a Marxist organization disguised as a [[civil rights]] organization. Instead of improving race relations, BLM exploits racial tensions to collapse America from within and replace our [[constitutional republic]] with socialism/communism. BLM is the ultimate humanitarian hoax being perpetrated on unsuspecting Americans who still believe that BLM cares about black lives. They don't.

Marxism, socialism, and communism are often used interchangeably, but Sandra Campbell clarifies the differences and shows how each builds on the other. "Marxism is the theoretical framework which lays the foundation for the economic and political philosophies of socialism and communism." Communism is the end game. . . . [[Karl Marx]] argued that [[capitalism]], with its strict adherence to [[free market]] principles, divided people because of competition. He believed communism was the solution."

The failure of Karl Marx's experiment is that in the real world, socialism and communism create the same centralized government with the same tyrannical, binary [[feudal]] structure of rulers and ruled. [[Globalism]] is centralized government on an internationalized planetary scale.

Now, back to race in America. Of course black lives matter - all lives matter in the United States of America! The foundation of life in the USA is that we all matter - all of us - white, black, blue, red, yellow, young, old, thin, fat, [[gay]], straight, [[Christian]], [[Jew]], [[Muslim]], [[Buddhist]], [[atheist]], etc etc etc. [...]

Our founding fathers rejected the tyranny of the aristocratic attitude that puts monarchs, emperors, oligarchs, caliphs, political elites, Hollywood glitterati, professional athletes, etc etc above the people. Ideologically, our founding fathers rejected the oppressive construct of rulers and ruled. Instead, they created a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Our forefathers rejected the tyranny of elitism, and embraced the individual freedom and upward mobility of the people. They dreamed the American dream - the opposite of the ruler and ruled nightmare of Marxist socialism, communism, Islamism, and globalism.

Our founding fathers fought for our freedom from the British monarchy and prevailing social pyramid of the few privileged elite at the top ruling their enslaved subjects below. The American War of Independence replaced the binary socio-political structure of feudalism with a threefold system that embraces an upwardly mobile middle class. Our forefathers dreamed a more perfect union of inclusion.

The United States of America is the greatest experiment in individual freedom the world has ever known. "Only in America" is the phrase that captures the possibilities of freedom. For 232 years, United States Presidents tried various methods to achieve the American dream of equal opportunity and upward mobility. Then came Barack Hussein Obama, the anti-American president who tried to fundamentally transform America and kill the American dream.

[[Barack Obama]] was the most divisive president in U.S. history. His promise to fundamentally transform the United States was the insidious effort to destroy the American dream, and replace our decentralized constitutional republic with the centralized government of socialism.

What's wrong with socialism?

The problem with socialism, communism, [[Islamism]], and globalism, is that NO LIVES MATTER except the lives of the ruling elite! Citizens' individual rights and freedoms are forfeited to the state. The individual is not valued in [[collectivism]], only the state and what the state deceitfully labels "the greater good" matters.

Obama's eight anti-American presidential years were devoted to weakening the country. Obama's four anti-American post-presidential years were dedicated to overthrowing duly elected America-first President Donald Trump. Obama marketed his Marxist movement as "resistance." Obama's resistance movement is ideologically aligned with Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

BLM and Antifa are Marxist communist organizations leading the color revolution in America, attempting to destabilize the country and effect regime change. Out with America-first President Donald Trump, and in with communist China's puppet, Beijing Joe Biden.

Let's connect the dots and examine the picture that emerges. Follow the money - always follow the money.

John Haywood's June 11, 2020, Breitbart article, "The Complex Funding and Ideology of Black Lives Matter," is very informative. Despite BLM's attempt to present itself as a grassroots, humanitarian, civil rights organization, it is heavily funded by radical leftist corporate sponsors pushing Obama's anti-American Marxist agenda:

BLM's major financial supporters include:

Airbnb – $500,000 to BLM and the NAACP
Anastasia Beverly Hills fashions – $1 million pledged, $100,000 donated so far to groups including BLM
Bad Robot Productions – film studio involved in Star Trek, Star Wars, and Mission Impossible, $10 million pledged to "anti-racist" groups. BLM among the first recipients
BTS, a Korean pop group – $1 million, matching donations from fans
Cisco, electronics giant – $5 million to groups including BLM and its own Fighting Racism and Discrimination fund
DECIEM cosmetics – $100,000 to NAACP and BLM

This brings us to public enemy #1, the king of radical leftist Democrats, humanitarian huckster extraordinaire, George Soros—the principal funder of Antifa and BLM through his Open Society Foundation. Antifa and BLM should both be designated as domestic terrorist organizations. Former New York City Police Commissioner Bernie Kirk says, "The FBI should investigate to see who's doing this. Who's behind these groups? Because when you look up the definition of terrorism - threats, intimidation, and extreme violence or violence for political reasons - that's what these people are doing. . . .These aren't protesters. These people are paid radical left-wing anarchists that come to instigate and engage in extreme violence, arson, and looting."

Lew Rockwell's June 21, 2020 video, "The Soros 2020 Color Revolution Explained," is very instructive:

"They [Antifa and BLM] are created to disrupt and to continue the sowing of division. And in connected news earlier this year, Mr. Soros has launched his open societies University Network with a $1 billion gift and he will thus continue to help mold the thoughts of young people in the increasingly stifled halls of academia worldwide long after his death. While there is much back and forth, as to whether Mr. Soros has paid out of pocket for the mysterious flats of bricks conveniently left for looters and rioters to use in the recent round of violence, arson, looting and murder, it doesn't really matter.

"He has for decades helped build the infrastructure, the organization, and the command-and-control that can immediately be fielded, once a single case of police brutality is caught on video and within a few days, have cities put to the torch with elected government officials bending the knee to violent mobs while the corporate mainstream media cheers it all on from the sidelines."

Why are these corporate sponsors and radical leftist organizations so eager to support Antifa and BLM? Color revolutions and war on America are expensive, and the corporations who rely on cheap Chinese communist labor to manufacture their goods need Trump OUT.

America-first President Donald. J. Trump is the existential enemy of globalism, socialism, Islamism, and communism. He is committed to Americanism, American sovereignty, the U.S. Constitution, and the American dream. The enemies of America must remove America-first President Donald Trump in order to fundamentally transform America into socialism and then communism.

BLM and Antifa soldiers need money and materials to launch the next phase of their Marxist revolution after President Trump is reelected - armed insurrection. Marxist leader Angela Davis warned in a Vanity Fair interview that, "the violent BLM and Antifa protests across the country are the early stages of a far larger far-left 'revolution.'" Then what happens?

Then the unholy alliance of America's enemies including Marxists, leftists, socialists, globalists, Islamists, and communists will battle each other for dominance, unless they are denied ascendancy in November 2020. VOTER BEWARE!

All lives matter in Trump's constitutional America. Only elite lives matter in the 2020 radical leftist Democrat party.}}

[[File:Death-camps-trump-supporters.jpg|right|300px|thumb|The poster reads, "Deathcamps for Trump Supporters".]]
The organization provides “fiscal sponsorship” to groups advocating numerous foreign and domestic far-left and extreme-left causes, including eliminating the [[Israel|State of Israel]],<ref>[https://www.ngo-monitor.org/funder/alliance-for-global-justice/ “Alliance for Global Justice.” NGO Monitor.]</ref> supporting convicted violent leftist extremists, and advancing various labor union efforts.

Alliance for Global Justice has received substantial funding from organizations often claiming to be the mainstream of the center-left. The [[Open Society Foundations]], [[Tides Foundation]], Arca Foundation, Surdna Foundation, Public Welfare Foundation, and the Brightwater Fund have all made contributions to AFGJ.<ref>Data compiled by Foundationsearch.com subscription service, a project of Metasoft Systems, Inc. from forms filed with the Internal Revenue Service.

ActBlue contributions comprise 99.64 percent of all funds raised for the “[[Biden for President]]” entity and the total is nearly 773 times greater than the group with the second-highest donation sum. As of May 21, 2020, the organization has donated $119,253,857 to the “Biden for President” effort.<ref>https://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/expenditures.php?cmte=c00401224&cycle=2020</ref>

In response, the Democrats note that ActBlue is a fundraising gateway platform which each funding campaign maintaining separate accounts. So that even if the political camapaigns of Democratic candidates make up the vast majority of ActBlue's revenues, each campaign accounts for the funds that it raises separately with the [[Federal Election Commission]], and that funds raised by the BLM-related campaigns were paid directly to those organizations.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.factcheck.org/2020/06/donations-to-black-lives-matter-group-dont-go-to-dnc/|title=Donations to Black Lives Matter Group Don’t Go to DNC

===Bail fund scam===
The [[Minnesota Freedom Fund]] said it's spent “well over” $200,000 in bailing protesters and rioters out of jail — despite receiving more than $30 million in donations from Biden and Harris' fundraising efforts. The [[MFF]] issued a statement:
{{quotebox|“One week ago we were a small bail fund struggling to get anyone to listen about the harms of cash bail and pre-trial detention. We are now flooded with resources and we are going to take a beat while we marshal those. We have some big plays in mind.”<ref>http://archive.is/xQMVv</ref>}}
The donors demanded their money back. It is illegal for a non-profit organization to raise money under one pretext and to divert those funds to other uses.

''[[The New York Post]]'' reported in early 2017:<ref>https://nypost.com/2017/02/11/how-obama-is-scheming-to-sabotage-trumps-presidency/</ref>
{{quotebox|When former President Barack Obama said he was “heartened” by anti-Trump protests, he was sending a message of approval to his troops. Troops? Yes, Obama has an army of agitators — numbering more than 30,000 — who will fight his Republican successor at every turn of his historic presidency. And Obama will command them from a bunker less than two miles from the White House.
In what’s shaping up to be a highly unusual post-presidency, Obama isn’t just staying behind in Washington. He’s working behind the scenes to set up what will effectively be a shadow government to not only protect his threatened legacy, but to sabotage the incoming administration and its popular “America First” agenda.
He’s doing it through a network of leftist nonprofits led by Organizing for Action. Normally you’d expect an organization set up to support a politician and his agenda to close up shop after that candidate leaves office, but not Obama’s OFA. Rather, it’s gearing up for battle, with a growing war chest and more than 250 offices across the country.
Since Donald Trump’s election, this little-known but well-funded protesting arm has beefed up staff and ramped up recruitment of young liberal activists, declaring on its website, “We’re not backing down.” Determined to salvage Obama’s legacy, it’s drawing battle lines on immigration, ObamaCare, race relations and climate change.}}
While Obama worried that Trump was now president, he left enough swamp rats in DC to keep his operation running. Still, he was forced to have a more hands-on approach to OFA than intended. The article continues:
{{Quotebox|Obama is intimately involved in [[OFA]] operations and even tweets from the group’s account. In fact, he gave marching orders to OFA foot soldiers following Trump’s upset victory.
“It is fine for everybody to feel stressed, sad, discouraged,” he said in a conference call from the White House. “But get over it.” He demanded they “move forward to protect what we’ve accomplished.”
“Now is the time for some organizing,” he said. “So don’t mope.”
Far from sulking, OFA activists helped organize anti-Trump marches across US cities, some of which turned into riots. After Trump issued a temporary ban on immigration from seven terror-prone Muslim nations, the demonstrators jammed airports, chanting: “No ban, no wall, sanctuary for all!”
Run by old Obama aides and campaign workers, federal tax records show “nonpartisan” OFA marshals 32,525 volunteers nationwide. Registered as a 501(c)(4), it doesn’t have to disclose its donors, but they’ve been generous. OFA has raised more than $40 million in contributions and grants since evolving from Obama’s campaign organization Obama for America in 2013.
OFA, in IRS filings, says it trains young activists to develop “organizing skills.” Armed with Obama’s 2012 campaign database, OFA plans to get out the vote for Democratic candidates it’s grooming to win back Congress and erect a wall of resistance to Trump at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue.<ref>https://nypost.com/2017/01/30/obama-says-hes-heartened-by-backlash-to-trumps-ban/</ref>}}

"People taking peacefully to the streets" is language intended to recruit children, mothers, the elderly, and peaceful minority civil rights protesters to march in the front line as cannon fodder and human shields for anarchists and Marxists behind them who toss Molotov cocktails at police, set diversionary fires, and smash windows to set off looting. "Emerging racial justice leaders" are spontaneous mob leaders who then must be either recruited into the Marxist hierarchy, compromised or blackmailed, or otherwise neutralized if they resist the agenda of the overall Marxist movement.

A key element to understanding Marxism is to know what "trained Marxists" already know, and that is, in large crowds otherwise ordinary rational people are capable of doing things that as an individual they would never imagine. The trained Marxist uses this incitement to mob mentality to sacrifice innocent "peaceful protesters" to gain power for themselves.

{{quotebox|"Leftists do not give a rat’s derriere about black empowerment or black lives. They view blacks as [[useful idiot]]s towards transforming America into their socialist/communist utopia in which anything goes sexually.

A huge elephant in the room is how long will the white majority tolerate being repeatedly poked in the eye with a hot poker of racial hate by BLM; demanded to kneel in worship to blacks? While claiming to be against racial hate, leftists are intentionally generating such hate. They believe voters will blame Trump and vote against him in November.

Evidence that leftists are lying about America being eternally racist is everywhere for anyone willing to see it. Eager to heal our nation from the wounds of slavery and racial discrimination, white America excitedly allowed a black man to bypass the usual vetting process for a presidential candidate. They gifted Obama two terms in the White House. Naive whites believed electing a black president would usher in a new era in which they could never be called “racist” again. Democrats and [[fake news]] media used [[Obama]]’s skin-color as a bludgeon to beat Republicans into submission, giving Obama free rein to implement their agenda to transform America into a socialist nation.

Here’s another example of the good-hearted nature and generosity of the American people. Fake news media and Democrats promoted the lie that Republicans and white America did not care about the victims of [[Hurricane Katrina]] because they were mostly black. The truth is U.S. donors opened their hearts, giving $4.2 billion to victims of Katrina which is believed to be the highest amount ever....

I would love for the [[Tea Party]] buses to roll again. Frankly, thus far, the funding is simply not there. Yes, I have been contacted by concerned Americans who are eager to donate. However, a tour needs a major donor to get the ball rounding.

While we struggle to find funding for a bus tour to inspire and encourage Trump’s base, BLM has a war-chest of mega-millions to destroy America and block Trump’s reelection. There is something terribly wrong with this picture.

Another thing causing my head to explode is of the pandering to BLM… an evil and demonic hate group.

{{quotebox|"It became clear to many of us that the [[Obama administration]] (with some help from [[Bill Clinton]]’s presidency) had seeded the [[Pentagon]] with leftist generals whose allegiance was to the [[Deep State]], to [[Cultural Marxism|cultural leftism]], and to the infamous and profitable “[[military industrial complex]]” that [[Eisenhower]] warned about in 1961. In only five years, Obama had conducted a major Pentagon purge, firing almost 200 senior officers who held the old-fashioned belief that the military exists to protect America and should not be a [[social justice]] institution with limited firepower.<ref>https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/197-military-officers-purged-by-obama/</ref><ref>https://rense.com/general96/listof.html</ref>

The upper-level officers who remained were hardcore [[Democrat]]s. Several were assigned to our Military academies at [[US Military Academy at West Point]], The [[United States Naval Academy|Naval]] and [[Colorado Springs|Air Force Academies]], bringing their [[liberal]], left-wing philosophies with them. All the above says there is something rotten happening in the Pentagon. The implications are not just in the past. They are also in the future. Michael Anton has written the best article spelling out the fact that the Democrats are openly planning a [[coup]] if [[Biden]] doesn’t win.<ref>https://americanmind.org/essays/the-coming-coup/</ref> One of the crucial points about this planned coup is that the Democrats have been explicit about [[military]] involvement. [...]

“Enough is enough” America! The Deep State is still filled with [[NeverTrump|anti-Trump]] political appointees, senior Generals and Admirals and staffers, who need to be removed from the ranks. [[Patriot]]ic Americans know in their hearts what is needed to keep the [[Republic]] from crumbling. We have a President now who fights for them and this great country and will not permit [[anarchist]]s and [[Socialist]]s to destroy what our forefathers created.

We recommend that the President convene a meeting immediately at the Pentagon to be attended by the senior Defense leaders, Secretaries and four-star Generals and Admirals. The President can then determine and sound out their concerns. He can, then, determine their loyalty and commitment to the Trump team. Those that cannot commit to the President should be asked to submit their resignations by close of business. Selected Retired Generals and Admirals who are apart of a Trump coup should be called back to Active Duty and tried by [[Court-martial|Court Martial]].

The laughable ''[[The Atlantic|Atlantic]]'' article about Trump disrespecting the military was intended not just to get military votes on November 3 [2020], but to get military coup participants after November 3. [[Critical Race Theory]] training and eight years of Obama’s social justice policies appear to have shifted many of the enlisted ranks from strong [[conservative]]s to equally strong Democrats.<ref>https://www.bookwormroom.com/2020/09/07/the-democrats-plan-for-the-military-in-the-coming-coup/</ref>}}

In [[Albuquerque]], Antifa fascists attempt to tear down a statue of Juan de Oñate, the first Spanish Governor General of [[Nuevo Mexico]].<ref>https://www.hiddenhispanicheritage.com/timeline-1598---juan-de-ontildeate---new-mexico.html</ref> One rioter was shot when the mob attacked and threaten to murder a [[citizen]].<ref>https://www.redstate.com/streiff/2020/06/16/856433/</ref> Brandon Morse of ''Red State'' summarized the state of [[chaos]] leftists created in America:
{{quotebox|Time and again, Antifa have pushed intimidation and violence upon the innocent Americans. They have threatened us, torn down and burned our businesses, showed up at our homes, and even conducted hostile takeovers of city blocks.

Collectively speaking, Americans are peaceful people who will try every non-violent solution before we, ourselves, resort to any kind of violence. It’s the way we’ve done things before our nation’s founding. Even our most famous moments of defiance of authority were incredibly polite. But Americans have also proved that once the sleeping giant is awakened, whoever is on the receiving end of its wrath will suffer. Whatever we do in return is going to hurt and it’s going to hurt badly....

Antifa, despite being made up of [[middle-class]] white kids, may not have understood this as its playbooks and historical knowledge all seem to be imported from nations that fell to communism. It’s not concerned with American history or how it’s people really think or act. Perhaps they thought that this “revolutionary” attitude and the violent, destructive methods that came with it were really going to pave the way for a systemic shift to the hard-left.

They probably moved with all confidence seeing as how their extremist actions rarely resulted in any real punishment. Hell, they were taught they could conduct hostile takeovers of a section of an entire city and the authorities would back off....

Antifa’s real power lies in how well it can sell the idea that it’s a powerful group, but has no real power to begin with. It’s “revolution” is a silly idea bandied about by bored rich kids who are led by the nose by bitter college professors and special interest grifters.<ref>https://www.redstate.com/brandon_morse/2020/06/16/antifa-lesson/</ref>}}

==Federal response==
:{{See also|Operation Legend}}
On April 2, 2020 the website of the International Department of the Central Committee of the [[Communist Party of China]] published an open letter which, according to the official CCP propaganda outlet Xinhua, at least 230 political parties from more than 100 countries endorsed or re-published the letter. The [[CPUSA]] was one such party. The letter calls for,

In the wake of the nationwide destruction caused by leftwing rioters, President Trump tweeted,
{{quotebox|"80% of the RIOTERS in Minneapolis last night were from OUT OF STATE. They are harming businesses (especially African American small businesses), homes, and the community of good, hardworking Minneapolis residents who want peace, equality, and to provide for their families."<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/donaldtrump/comments/gtj8y1/donald_j_trump_80_of_the_rioters_in_minneapolis/</ref>}}
U.S. Attorney General [[Bill Barr]] issued a statement:
{{quotebox|The outrage of our national community about what happened to George Floyd in Minneapolis is real and legitimate....In many places, it appears the violence is planned, organized, and driven by anarchistic and [[far left]] extremists, using Antifa-like tactics, many of whom travel from out of state to promote the violence. ...In that regard, it is a federal crime to cross state lines or to use interstate facilities to incite or participate in violent rioting. We will enforce these laws.”<ref>https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/attorney-general-william-p-barr-s-statement-death-george-floyd-and-riots</ref>}}

[[Tucker Carlson]] and [[Steven Crowder]] have accused President Trump and [[Republicans]] of taking insufficient actions against the rioters.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWmw3IzdDVQ</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrJHOcKQFi4</ref>

===Anarchist jurisdictions===
:{{See also|Insurrection Act}}
On September 2, 2020 President Trump issued a memorandum entitled “Memorandum on Reviewing Funding to State and Local Government Recipients That Are Permitting Anarchy, Violence, and Destruction in American Cities.” The memorandum stated,
{{quotebox|“When state and local leaders impede their own law enforcement officers and agencies from doing their jobs, it endangers innocent citizens who deserve to be protected, including those who are trying to peacefully assemble and protest,” said Attorney General William P. Barr. “We cannot allow federal tax dollars to be wasted when the safety of the citizenry hangs in the balance. It is my hope that the cities identified by the Department of Justice today will reverse course and become serious about performing the basic function of government and start protecting their own citizens.”<ref>https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/memorandum-reviewing-funding-state-local-government-recipients-permitting-anarchy-violence-destruction-american-cities/</ref>}}
Criteria for evaluating each city is below:
*Whether a jurisdiction forbids the police force from intervening to restore order amid widespread or sustained violence or destruction.
*Whether a jurisdiction has withdrawn law enforcement protection from a geographical area or structure that law enforcement officers are lawfully entitled to access but have been officially prevented from accessing or permitted to access only in exceptional circumstances, except when law enforcement officers are briefly withheld as a tactical decision intended to resolve safely and expeditiously a specific and ongoing unlawful incident posing an imminent threat to the safety of individuals or law enforcement officers.
*Whether a jurisdiction disempowers or defunds police departments.
*Whether a jurisdiction unreasonably refuses to accept offers of law enforcement assistance from the Federal Government.
*Any other related factors the Attorney General deems appropriate.

On September 21, 2020 the [[Department of Justice]] identified New York, Seattle, and Portland, Oregon as [[anarchist jurisdiction]]s.<ref>https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/department-justice-identifies-new-york-city-portland-and-seattle-jurisdictions-permitting</ref>

====New York City====
*Shootings in New York City have been on the rise since looting and protests began on or about May 28, 2020. For July 2020, shootings increased from 88 to 244, an increase of 177% over July 2019. In August 2020, shootings increased from 91 to 242, a 166% increase over August 2019.
*While the city faced increased unrest, gun violence, and property damage, the New York City Council cut $1 billion from NYPD's FY21 budget.
*The budget resulted in the cancellation of the new police recruiting class, cuts to overtime spending, and the transfer of certain police functions, including school safety, out of the NYPD.
*Meanwhile, the Manhattan and Brooklyn District Attorneys have declined to prosecute charges of disorderly conduct and unlawful assembly arising from the protests, and the District Attorneys in Queens and the Bronx have declined to prosecute other protest-related charges.
*Both Mayor de Blasio and Governor [[Andrew Cuomo]] have forcefully rejected federal law enforcement support.

====Portland, Oregon====
*In September 2020 Portland marked 100 consecutive nights of protests marred by vandalism, chaos, and even killing.
*Those bent on violence regularly started fires, threw projectiles at law enforcement officers, and destroyed property. Numerous law enforcement officers, among others, suffered injury.
*Shootings increased by more than 140% in June and July 2020 compared to the same period last year.
*In the midst of this violence, the Portland City Council cut $15 million from the police bureau, eliminating 84 positions. Crucially, the cuts included the Gun Violence Reduction Team, which investigates shootings, and several positions from the police team that responds to emergency incidents.
*In August, Portland Mayor Wheeler sent a letter to President Trump expressly rejecting the Administration's offer of federal law enforcement to stop the violent protests.

====Seattle, Washington====
*For nearly a month, starting in June, the City of Seattle permitted anarchists and activists to seize six square blocks of the city's Capitol Hill neighborhood, naming their new enclave the “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” (CHAZ) and then the “Capitol Hill Occupied Protest” (CHOP).
*Law enforcement and fire fighters were precluded from entering the territory. The Seattle Police Department was ordered to abandon their precinct within the CHOP.
*Person-related crime in the CHOP increased 525% from the same period of time in the same area the year before, including by Mayor Durkan's own count “two additional homicides, 6 additional robberies, and 16 additional aggravated assaults (to include 2 additional non-fatal shootings).”
*The CHOP was allowed to stand for nearly a month, during which time two teenagers were shot and killed in the zone.
*The Seattle City Council, Mayor Durkan, and Washington Governor Jay Inslee publicly rejected federal involvement in law enforcement activities within the city of Seattle.

==iTunes Holdout==

Linkin Park, along with other Warner Music Group artists like [[Green Day]], had an infamous [[iTunes]] holdout refusing to sell their content on the iTunes music store. Despite Apple trying to persuade the label to go digital, they had refused. The label finally gave in about a year ago, being one of the last influential artists to join the iTunes music store. The process began with the band offering music videos, then their 3 top albums. They now are in close relations with iTunes and have been featured artists on the homepage on several occasions.<ref>[http://www.mp3.com/news/stories/6086.html Linkin Park iTunes Holdout]</ref>

Moral decline

2021-03-06T02:36:42Z

Evadetyranny19: /* Early to mid 20th century */

'''Moral decline''' (or ''degeneration'') refers to the process of declining from a higher to a lower level of [[morality]]. The condition of moral decline is seen as preceding or concomitant with the decline in quality of life, as well as the decline of [[nations]]. In the words of British lawyer and jurist Judge Devlin (1905–1992), "an established morality is as necessary as good government to the welfare of society. Societies disintegrate from within more frequently than they are broken up by external pressures."<ref>Devlin, in Dworkin pp.76-7, (1977)</ref>

==Moral standards==

In order for morality to be upheld and for degeneration to be effectively measured, standards must exist as points of moral reference. While legal philosophy may hold that immorality is whatever a moral person considers immoral, these judgments are typically based on or are derived from either transcendent religious sources or established secular ideology. On a corporate scale, all governments and their legal and educational institutions operate out of some basic moral beliefs, making complete separation of State from moral ideology impossible. In America, it was widely held that, in the words of [[Theodore Roosevelt]], "To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society", with the morality referred to being foundationally that of the Bible.<ref>[http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/CauseEffect.html Cause and Effect: The Bible, the Educational System, and Its Influence]</ref>

In the realm of formal religion, moral codes are passed on via sacred scriptures and [[tradition]]s, which usually transcend time. However, cultural adaptations may be made as needed, while upholding the principal of the original.<ref>An example from Biblical law is the prohibition in [[Leviticus 18]]:21 (cf. 20:5) of child dedication or literal child sacrifice to the [[Canaanite]] god [[Molech]] While the deity at subject is not an issue today, [[Christians]] may understand this (and like condemnations: Eze. 16:20-21; 20:31; Jer. 32:35; 2Ki. 23:10; 16:3; 17:17; 21:6, cf. Psa 106:37-38) as forbidding [[abortion]], and or giving their children over to be raised under false ideologies.</ref> This adaptation is an area of [[theology]].

According to the [[New Testament]], conscience and creation reveal essential moral truth, with the [[holy Scripture]]s being the more comprehensive revelation, and the objective and immutable authority by which the truthfulness of any light of conscience is determined.<ref>Dr. John Gill (1690-1771), ''Exposition of the Entire Bible'', Romans 2</ref><ref>B. W. Johnson, ''The People's New Testament'' (1891), Romans 2:1-16</ref>

While all major formal religions usually possess many basic moral commonalities, they can critically differ in some areas, including their manner or degree of cultural adaptation, such as are seen in the contrasts between the [[Bible]] and the [[Qur'an]].<ref>[http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/JESUS.Vs.Muhammad.html MUHAMMAD VERSUS JESUS CHRIST]</ref>

Under secularism, religiously based laws may be upheld without requiring formal assent to one formal religion, as was the case in most of the history of the United States. However, as changes in spiritual demographics occur, one ideological basis may be exchanged for another, such as is seen in atheistic humanism increasingly becoming the basis for morality in America, and essentially being State-sponsored, and supplanting that which was more Bible-based.<ref>http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/CauseEffect.html</ref>

In the ideology of secular [[humanism]], which the most prominent Western form of secularism advances, moral values are highly subject to change, being based upon the presumed superior reasoning of man, who is set forth as the supreme lawgiver. Being basically atheistic, it operates out of a [[materialistic]] foundation, and lacking an objective, transcendent moral authority and its moral absolutes, it offers no assurance of moral stability, and is prone to extremes of [[moral relativism]].

How materialism assesses morality is described by William Provine, a professor from Cornell University,
{{cquote|Modern science directly implies that the world is organized strictly in accordance with mechanistic principles. There are no purposive principles whatsoever in nature. There are no gods and no designing forces that are rationally detectable... Second, modern science directly implies that there are no inherent moral or ethical laws, no absolute guiding principles for human society. Thirdly, human beings are marvelously complex machines. The individual human becomes an ethical person by means of two primary mechanisms: heredity and environmental influences. That is all there is. Fourth, we must conclude that when we die, we die and that is the end of us.<ref>from Philip Johnson, "Darwin On Trial", p. 126; Illinois: Intervarsity Press, 1993</ref>}}

==Causality==

===Biblical theology===

The cause of moral degeneration continues be a subject of study. In the Bible, moral decline was always a result of spiritual declension, that of falling into idolatry (the worship of false, gods), which is evidenced in the Bible to be the ''mother of all sins''. In addition to the transitory and finite nature of such created gods, these are seen to be forbidden due to their being the product of man's corrupt nature, such as is expressed in [[Romans 1]] in the [[Christian]] [[New Testament]]. Man also tends to become more like the object of his highest devotion and allegiance. (Psalm 115) God, who is stated to need nothing, (Acts 17:25) and being omnipotent, omniscient and perfect, (Dt. 32:4) is seen to command man to worship Him as a matter of righteousness,<ref>[[Matthew Henry]]’s Commentary on the Whole Bible, Rev. 4:11</ref> and for the good of man. (Dt. 6:1-13; 28:1-14; 30:16)

Certain environmental conditions are also seen as being conducive to idolatry and its spiritual and moral decline, these conditions most primarily being that of an abundance of sensual and material satisfaction, as well as ego fulfillment (pleasures, possessions and power). The Bible states that these created things are what the world "lusts" after, (1 John 2:16) and exhorts believers to set their controlling affection upon God and holy things. (Dt. 6:5; Col. 3; Phil. 4:8) The book of [[Deuteronomy]] expresses that after [[Israel]] was blessed for its obedience, then the people "waxed fat" and then "forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation." (Dt. 32:15) [[Ezekiel]] 16:49,50 states that the overall sins of [[Sodom]] were "pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness", and indifference to the poor and needy, and who committed abomination (revealed to be fornication, and that of a most perverse manner) resulting in their utter destruction. ''See:'' [[Homosexuality and biblical interpretation]]

2 Chronicles 26:16 records that when King Uzziah increased in power, then "his heart was lifted up to his destruction", after he presumed priestly powers which were not his. In contrast, some of the greatest examples of Godly men in the Bible are those who maintained their faith and spiritual relationship with God in both adversity and abundance, in affliction and affluence, such as [[Job]], [[Daniel]] and the [[apostle Paul]], (Phil. 4:12) in addition to [[Jesus Christ]] Himself. (Heb. 4:15)

In early America, the tendency to drift away from faith in times of prosperity was observed early by Puritan preacher Cotton Mather (1663-1728) who stated, "Religion begat prosperity, and the daughter devoured the mother".<ref>Magnalia Christi Americana (The Great Achievement of Christ in America, 1702)</ref><ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=M0_ktxTHhdkC&pg=PA63&lpg=PA63&dq=cotton+mather+prosperity+is+the+daughter&source=bl&ots=ASEEaFcVMi&sig=-Vzy9Nnl6UcsbreMrpzRTDIOQzM&hl=en&ei=U7nMSvTjGcitlAf59tzNBQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4#v=onepage&q=cotton%20mather%20prosperity%20is%20the%20daughter&f=false Leland Ryken, ''Worldly saints: the Puritans as they really were'', p. 63]</ref>

A latter acknowledgment of this guilt and the need to place priorities where they should be was eloquently expressed by President Abraham Lincoln in his ''Proclamation for a National Day of Humiliation, Fasting, and Prayer'', issued in the midst (1863) of the [[American Civil War]], which reads (in part),
{{cquote|Whereas, it is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to owe their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.

And, insomuch as we know that, by His Divine law, nations like individuals are subjected to punishments and chastisements in this world, may we not justly fear that the awful calamity of civil war, which now desolates the land, may be but a punishment inflicted upon us for our presumptuous sins, to the needful end of our national reformation as a whole People. We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth, and power as no other nation has ever grown.

But we have forgotten God.

We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us!

It behooves us, then, to humble ourselves before the offended Power, to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness.,<ref>Robert Nicholson Scott, ''The war of the rebellion: a compilation of the official records of the Union...'', p. 106, United States. War Dept (1899)</ref><ref>Frank Moore, ''The Rebellion record: a diary of American events, with documents, narratives...'', Vol. 3, p. 490</ref><ref>http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/ProclamationNationalFastDay.html</ref>}}

===Secular ideology===

Moral decline begins when transcendent moral values, which have proven to be beneficial over time, are discarded in preference to various ideas which man finds more conducive to achieving ultimately destructive lustful desires.

While people without religion may sometimes be considered relatively ''good'', and contrasted with ''evil'' people, yet, in contrast to the Bible, [[atheism]] offers no objective transcendent authority which comprehensively defines good and evil, and which is proven to provide beneficial morality. In addition, the moral foundation of atheism is seen by many as having allowed atheists such as [[Mao Zedong]] and [[Pol Pot]] and others to easily justify their atrocities, these being pragmatically ''reasonable'' to them.<ref>[http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/Atheism1.html ATHEISM VERSUS CHRIST]</ref><ref>http://www.scholarscorner.com/apologia/deathtoll.html</ref> The corresponding responses from atheists, such as which invoke Hitler as an example of a Christian, and or charge God with immorality (paradoxically, by Biblical standards), is part of a renewed conflict.<ref>http://www.epsociety.org/library/articles.asp?pid=45&mode=detail</ref><ref>http://www.leaderu.com/offices/billcraig/menus/existence.html</ref>

===Biblical examples===
The Bible, containing extensive historical narratives, provides many personal and corporate examples of spiritual and moral development declension, otherwise know as ''backsliding''.<ref>http://www.biblegateway.com/topical/Backsliders/Nave</ref> [[Israel]] was provided much grace by way of superior laws, and leaders such as Moses and Joshua, and enjoyed blessings of obedience, as recorded in the [[Torah]] (and in such overviews as Psalms 105). But soon they overall "dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not" to God's commandments, as succinctly rehearsed by Nehemiah (cp. 9) and Psalms 78, 105, 107, Acts 7, and [[Old Testament]] prophets such as Hosea. The grace given to men such as King Saul, David, Solomon, Asa and Hezekiah, and their subsequent failures, provide examples of souls who walked in disobedience, to their and Israel's hurt, though in such examples as David, earnest repentance enabled continued usefulness. In the New Testament, a higher plane of holiness is exhorted and enabled, (Rm. 8:4), with 1 John delineating what manner of faith is efficacious to salvation. Most individual examples of backsliding (which presumes a period of growth first) are more incidental, such as Peter's denial of Christ, (Mk. 14:66-72) and of Gentile equality, under pressure, (Gal. 2:9-14) but are followed by repentance, and their sins counterbalanced by overall holy lives in which such sins are an exception.

Other souls, such as Demas (who "hath forsaken me [Paul], having loved this present world", [2 Tim. 4:10]) indicate a more willful spiritual and moral departure. Biblical texts such as Galatians 5:1-4 and Hebrews 3:12; 10:38 warn believers (as believers) of falling from grace, making Christ of no effect, departing from the living God, and drawing back into perdition. The [[apostle Paul]]'s letters to the [[Corinthians]] reveal the most detailed example of corporate backsliding of a Christian church, and in response to which God works to motivate repentance through chastisement, lest one be condemned with the rest of the world. (1 Cor. 11:32)

===China===

China's long recorded history testifies to both various degrees of moral virtue as well as moral declension and its consequences, and to some degree of reform. Recent evidence indicates moral decline is seen an increasing problem in China today. One influential contemporary moralist comments, "The problem isn’t that people don’t follow moral standards; the problem is that there no longer exist moral standards.” He attributes the loss of morality to five decades of atrophy under Communist political power, plus two decades of corrosion under the money and wealth brought by the Western market economy.<ref>Jiang Qing, quoted by Xujun Eberlein in ''China Has A Morality Crisis'', NAM, Commentary, Jan 23, 2008</ref>

===Roman Empire===

While pagan Rome evidenced that its people had retained a somewhat strong degree of adherence to many basic moral values for much of its history, without which it could not have been a great empire, their gods themselves (mainly being forms of Greek deities) were immoral, and the Roman Empire followed the path of moral degeneration that would be its ruin. The moral deterioration of the Empire is seen to have attained its highest point in the dissolute age of the immoral Roman Emperors,<ref>Prof. Kurtz's church history, p. 25 (1889)</ref> almost all of which were active [[homosexuals]], and who often claimed godhood themselves in order to legitimize their rule.

J.W. Shepard states,
{{Cquote|The religion of the Romans had no power to cope with the degeneracy of the times. The philosophies of the Greeks failed. None of the philosophies could meet the deep moral needs of the times. The emperors were monsters of crime.

Thousands of lives were sacrificed in the arena to furnish entertainment for the Emperor and a bloodthirsty population. Luxury was beyond description. The horrible character of vice and crime is witnessed to by the excavated objects of Pompeii.

Seneca testified that children were considered with great disfavor and infant exposure was prevalent. Tacitus said that the spirit of the times was "to corrupt and to be corrupted."

Paul gives a picture in the Roman epistle of a people who had departed from the God revealed in nature and conscience, to set up for themselves, through vain independence, gods like unto creatures. From this idol worship they had gone on into moral degeneracy and crime until they were lost in a world of darkness and destruction.

This was the condition of the world morally when Jesus came, who was to "overcome the world" with His Gospel.<ref>J.W. Shepard, "The Christ of the Gospels" Reprint, p. 15 (Grand Rapids, MI: Eerdmans, 1982)</ref>}}

Alfred Edersheim (1825-1889) adds,

<blockquote>Slavery was not even what we know it, but a seething mass of cruelty and oppression on the one side, and of cunning and corruption on the other. More than any other cause, it contributed to the ruin of Roman society. The freedmen, who had very often acquired their liberty by the most disreputable courses, and had prospered in them, combined in shameless manner the vices of the free with the vileness of the slave. The foreigners - especially Greeks and Syrians - who crowded the city, poisoned the springs of its life by the corruption which they brought. The free citizens were idle, dissipated, sunken; their chief thoughts of the theatre and the arena; and they were mostly supported at the public cost. While, even in the time of Augustus, more than two hundred thousand persons were thus maintained by the State, what of the old Roman stock remained was rapidly decaying, partly from corruption, but chiefly from the increasing cessation of marriage, and the nameless abominations of what remained of family-life.<ref>[http://www.ccel.org/ccel/edersheim/lifetimes.vii.xi.html Edersheim, ''Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah'', CHAPTER XI.]</ref>

===United Kingdom===
At the height of the [[British Empire]], Britain had a strongly Christian culture, and there was a strong sense of morality and Victorian values.<ref>Himmelfarb, Gertrude (February 13, 1995).

===The United States===

[[America]] is seen to be somewhat unique in the degree of moral foundation which was it founded upon, with a strong Biblically based influence, which was strengthened as a result of religious revivals, and which affected a strong union of faith and civil life in the new [[Republic]]. French historian Alexis de Tocqueville commented,
{{cquote|The Americans combine the notions of Christianity and of liberty so intimately in their minds, that it is impossible to make them conceive the one without the other; and with them this conviction does not spring from that barren traditionary faith which seems to vegetate in the soul rather than to live.<ref>Democracy in America, Volume I Chapter XVII (1835)</ref>}}

The [[Puritans]] in [[New England]], and later, other Christian groups were instrumental in forming a country with a distinctive Christian character. Noted evangelical author and commentator [[Os Guinness]] states,
<blockquote>
while America has never officially been a "Christian Republic," for much of its history the Christian faith has been a leading contribution to its unofficial civil religion.<ref>Os Guinness, ''American Hour'', p. 225</ref>
</blockquote>

Though the extreme of creating theocracies ruling over those without the church (contrary to the charter given to the church in the New Testament<ref>John 18:36; 1Cor. 5:12,13; 2 Cor 10:4; Eph. 6:12; Romans 13:1-5; 1Pet. 2:16</ref>) was rightly resisted by men such as [[Baptist]] [[Roger Williams]], yet all 50 states referred to God in their Constitutions.<ref>http://www.whateveristrue.com/heritage/preamble.htm</ref> Evangelical Calvinism (then the predominate faith) is seen as fostering a fervent American nationalism,<ref>Alan Heimert, ''Religion and the Colonial Mind''</ref> and the effect of a Bible-based Christianity is credited with working to bring souls to be ruled from within, by the Spirit of Christ and a sound conscience.<ref>http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/CauseEffect.html</ref> This helped to enable relatively small government and yet promote stability in a vast and fertile country with a multitude of different peoples, and to endure and progress in overcoming many serious negative consequences of the abuse of power, and the iniquity of unjust bondage.

While not all the Founders were Christian, none were known atheists, and Deists consisted of men such as [[Benjamin Franklin]], [[James Madison]], and [[Thomas Paine]].

Primary in establishing a strong moral foundation was [[education]]. In elementary schooling in early America, the overtly Christian ''[[New England Primer]]'' was used in [[New England]], which is estimated to have sold upwards to 3,000,000 copies from 1700 to 1850. Introduced in 1690, this reader was used in what now would be the 1st grade, and taught multitudes of children how to read for 200 years, until 1900. The [[Alphabet]] was taught with Bible verses that began with each letter of the alphabet. Lessons had questions about the Bible and the Ten Commandments. An example of the Primer is, A = In Adam's fall, we sinned all. B = Heaven to find, the Bible mind."<ref>[http://www.shalomjerusalem.com/heritage/heritage19.htm The Honorable Judge Robert Ulrich Chief Justice, Missouri Court Of Appeals, Western District]</ref>

In addition, approximately half of all American children learned from the ''[[McGuffey Reader]],'' a series of textbooks of which 122 million copies were published (during a time when the population was much less than today, and books were passed on more). The first Reader was published in the 1830's, and was followed by five additional Readers, the last being published in 1885. This was an advanced teaching system for its time, written by William Holmes McGuffey, who later became a Presbyterian minister, and a work which earned him the title, “the Great Schoolmaster of the Nation.” McGuffey believed religion and education were to be interrelated and were essential to a healthy society. McGuffey exalted the Lord Jesus Christ, and used the Bible more than any other source, though the later revised editions (which used McGufey’s name though he neither contributed to them nor approved their revisions) became more pluralistic in their moral instruction. The Readers were filled with stories of strength, character, goodness and truth, working to instill standards of basic Christian-based morality for more than a century.<ref>http://www.mcguffeyreaders.com/history.htm</ref>

McGuffey Readers became the standardized reading text for most schools across the United States, especially throughout the West and South, during the mid to late nineteenth century,<ref>[https://www.gutenberg.org/etext/15577 Henry H. Vail, ''A History of the McGuffey Readers'']</ref><ref>[http://www.ohiohistorycentral.org/entry.php?rec=1469 McGuffey's Reader]</ref> and were used widely in America until just after World War I. This resulted in the Readers becoming a unifying force in American culture, giving America a common value-laden body of literary reference and allusion,<ref>Cranney, A. Garr, 'Noah Webster and William Holmes McGuffey: The Men and Their Contributions to Reading''</ref> and “a sense of common experience and of common possession”.<ref>Historian Henry Steele Commager</ref>

The first elementary schools also taught Christian morality, and even the [[Unitarian]] (a religion which essentially denies Christ and Divine biblical authority, but which then overall upheld Bible morality, much unlike it does today) ''Father of the Common School'', Horace Mann (May 4, 1796 — August 2, 1859), who became Massachusetts Secretary of Education in 1837, not only understood the impossibility of separating education from religious moral beliefs, but held that it was lawful to teach the truths of the general Christian faith, asserting that the “laws of Massachusetts required the teaching of the basic moral doctrines of Christianity.” Mann, who supported prohibition of alcohol and intemperance, slavery and lotteries,<ref>http://www.famousamericans.net/horacemann</ref> dreaded “intellectual eminence when separated from virtue”, and that education, if taught without moral responsibilities, would produce more evil than it inherited.<ref>William Jeynes, “American educational history: school, society, and the common good,” p. 149, 150</ref>

In higher education, the second requirement of [[Harvard]] Universities ''Lawes'' of 1642 (after requiring literacy in Latin, which language the Scriptures were then mostly written in), was that "Every one shall consider the main end of his life and studies to know God and Jesus Christ which is eternal life. (Joh. 17:3) Overall, the nature of early colleges and universities was religious, and which continued at least until the Civil War. Even State colleges had significant religious (most always Christian) components, such as mandatory religion courses and attendance at chapel services, while large numbers of their faculties had formal religious training.<ref>Ringenberg, 1984; Marsden and Longfield, 1962; Ronald W. Fagan and Raymond G. DeVries, ''The practice of sociology at Christian liberal arts colleges and universities''; The American Sociologist, June, 1994</ref>

By 1820 American publishers had produced almost 300 different editions of the King James Bible, and by 1870 the number had increased to almost 1,900 in the English language alone. By the mid-800'sBiblical literacy so high that, as these historians state,
<blockquote>
Authors throughout this period used biblical stories and phraseology as a kind of cultural anchor in their own works. They were able to [[Allusion|allude]] to the biblical narrative—or how that narrative was worded in the King James Version of the Bible—with an un-abashed fluency and confidence. Readers were so familiar with certain biblical stories, characters, and passages that authors could build upon these narratives in their own works without feeling any need to point out the biblical roots of their thinking. Frederick Douglass could write of weeping "near the rivers of Babylon" and Harriet Beecher Stowe could underline the Christlike character of Tom in Uncle Tom's Cabin (1852) by lacing his conversation with unattributed biblical allusions, knowing that their readers would know the parts of the Bible they were so freely referencing.<ref>''The Bible." American History Through Literature,'' Ed. Janet Gabler-Hover and Robert Sattelmeyer. Gale Cengage, 2006. eNotes.com. 2006. 10 Nov, 2010</ref>
</blockquote>

While iniquity was always a significant part of America, it was generally held as shameful and overall resisted by Church and State. Early on, in a pamphlet for Europeans titled ''Information to Those Who Would Remove to America'' (1754), Benjamin Franklin wrote, in part:
{{cquote|...serious religion, under its various denominations, is not only tolerated, but respected and practiced. Atheism is unknown there; Infidelity rare and secret; so that persons may live to a great age in that country without having their piety shocked by meeting with either an Atheist or an Infidel. And the Divine Being seems to have manifested His approbation of the mutual forbearance and kindness by which the different sects treat each other, and by the remarkable prosperity with which He has been please to favor the whole country.<ref>John Gould Curtis, ''American history told by contemporaries ...''. Volume 3, p. 26</ref>}}

During certain periods of America's growth moral degradation increased, and a strong correlation was felt between loss of Christian religious devotion and the increase in iniquity. America's faith saw revival as a result of the [[First Great Awakening]] in the 1730s and 1740s, and which is held to have began the modern [[Evangelical Christian]] movement. During the period of approximately 1800-1830's the [[Second Great Awakening]] took place, and a [[Third Great Awakening]] occurring from the late 1850s to the early 1900s. These revivals had a profound spiritual and civil impact on Christian faith within America and [[England]], and worked toward the abolition of the well-entrenched historical institution of slavery.

As a [[Library of Congress]] exhibit notes,
{{cquote|The religion of the new American republic was evangelicalism, which, between 1800 and the Civil War, was the "grand absorbing theme" of American religious life. During some years in the first half of the nineteenth century, revivals (through which evangelicalism found expression) occurred so often that religious publications that specialized in tracking them lost count. In 1827, for example, one journal exulted that "revivals, we rejoice to say, are becoming too numerous in our country to admit of being generally mentioned in our Record."

During the years between the inaugurations of Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln, historians see "evangelicalism emerging as a kind of national church or national religion." The leaders and ordinary members of the "evangelical empire" of the nineteenth century were American patriots who subscribed to the views of the Founders that religion was a "necessary spring" for republican government; they believed, as a preacher in 1826 asserted, that there was "an association between Religion and Patriotism." Converting their fellow citizens to Christianity was, for them, an act that simultaneously saved souls and saved the republic. The American Home Missionary Society assured its supporters in 1826 that "we are doing the work of patriotism no less than Christianity."<ref>[http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/religion/rel07.html ''Religion and the New Republic''], Library of Congress exhibit</ref>}}

The 1800s and onward also saw a notable increase in the charitable work by private persons and agencies. In 1835 De Tocqueville<ref>Democracy in America</ref> noted that early America had no distinct class of wealth that could be turned to in times of need to relieve suffering. Associations necessarily formed to create the means to deal with problems and reflected a compassion for all those in trouble. Many agencies created during that time exist today.<ref>http://74.52.60.18/~npt/index.php?page=1800-s A Chronological HISTORY OF PHILANTHROPY in America.</ref>
<blockquote>
Benevolent societies were a new and conspicuous feature of the American landscape during the first half of the nineteenth century. Originally devoted to the salvation of souls, although eventually to the eradication of every kind of social ill, benevolent societies were the direct result of the extraordinary energies generated by the evangelical movement—specifically, by the “activism” resulting from conversion.<ref>http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/religion/rel07.html</ref>
</blockquote>

While not preventing the [[American Civil War]], a heightened moral sense of guilt and accountability is seen expressed in President [[Abraham Lincoln]]'s ''Proclamation for a National Day of Humiliation, Fasting, and Prayer'' (1863),<ref>http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/ProclamationNationalFastDay.html</ref> which states (in part),
{{cquote|We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth, and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us!}}

This growth of evangelical faith thwarted the hopes of some men such as the anti-clerical [[Thomas Jefferson]], who had came to imagine that complete liberty of conscience would result religions based on on "reason" versus Biblical revelation with its supernatural aspects, stating in 1822,“There is not a young man now living in the United States who will not die a Unitarian.” However, in reality the withering of much of institutionalized "religious establishments in the wake of the American Revolution proved to be the making of bible-based, evangelical Christianity. By the middle decades of the nineteenth century, only a minority of Americans adhered to Unitarianism and other rationalist religions, but hundreds of thousands had embraced evangelical Christianity. And those revival converts of the Second Great Awakening were investing their energies in an ever-expanding number of voluntary associations promoting moral and social reform, which immeasurably strengthened the influence of evangelical Protestants on public opinion and political culture in the United States." <ref>http://nationalhumanitiescenter.org/tserve/eighteen/ekeyinfo/sepchust.htm</ref>

And as it is impossible for a constitutional government to separate its laws from the ideology of its founders, and which in a democratic society will also reflect that of the people, this growth of evangelical faith affected the understanding of [[separation of church and state]], as has America's later spiritual declension in Christian faith.

====Early to mid 20th century====

Religiously, the early 1900s saw a revival of [[Pentecostalism]], as well as the rise of Evangelical Christian ''[[Fundamentalism]]'' as a distinct form. The latter was manifested in response to the growth of ''[[liberal Christianity]]'' and doctrinally labored to combat liberalism's move away from historical Christian faith, especially as concerned Christ and salvation, and the Bible's strong emphasis upon personal morality. Liberal theology also placed primary emphasis on a [[social gospel]], while Fundamentalism was rightly committed to uphold the primacy of basic doctrine and to tend to the spiritual needs of souls. However, opportunities to meet material needs of those without tended to be marginalized, an overreaction that some later recognized as an imbalance.<ref>Frank E. Gaebelein, ''Evangelicals and Social Concern'', March 1982</ref>

Educationally, the rise of [[Darwinism]] worked against the view of man as being made in the image of man and reduced him to being simply a higher order of primates, with morality having no firm foundation. High schools and places of higher education increasingly became places of rampant STD's,<ref>http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/RevealingStatistics.html#Sec7</ref> inflated grades, and the marginalization of core subjects.<ref>Walter E. Williams, professor of economics at George Mason University: “What Will They Learn For Your $50,000?”</ref>

Economically, building upon the foundation of the past, post [[World War I]] capitalism and the ongoing [[Industrial revolution]] helped enable more goods and funds for the general public.

Morally, much effort was expended in passing [[Prohibition in the United States]] (1920 to 1933), while during the same period the [[Roaring Twenties]] manifested a marked degree of cultural rejection of traditional moral decency. The following [[Great Depression]] (1929-1940s) signaled an end to the economic boon, and post [[World War II]] saw the traditional family focused on, as many men and women [[married]] and raised children.

The overcrowding of cities was seen as contributing to moral corruption, and in 1890 the [[New York]] Society for Parks and Playgrounds, described as a “moral movement not a charity”, was incorporated. Its purpose was to provide healthy recreation for the 500,000 boys and girls in [[New York]] city, and so help to counteract "the physical and moral degeneration" which so often follows densely populated cities.<ref>Vrooman, Walter, ''Open Letters: Playgrounds and Parks for Children'', pp. 317-318: Journals: Century (1881 - 1899)</ref> In 1897, New York city Mayor William L. Strong appointed the Small Parks Advisory Committee, which advised constructing playgrounds with equipment and trained recreation specialists, for "the physical energies of youth, which, if not directed to good ends, will surely manifest themselves in evil tendencies.” In addition to recreation, children took part in drills, singing, a salute to the flag, a talk by the school principal, and occupation work, etc. These early reformers saw recreation not as an end in itself, but as properly carried out, a program directly linked to “social morality.” “If our boys . . . are going to acquire the habit of subordinating selfish to group interests, they must learn these things through experience and not from books or the bleachers . . . ” <ref>Luther Halsely Gulick, Popular Recreation and Public Morality, 1912</ref><ref>http://www.nycgovparks.org/sub_about/parks_history/playgrounds.html</ref>

In the 1950s, the danger of [[Communism]] worked a renewed affirmation of America being a basically Christian nation, though no significant religious revival was evident, and [[liberal ideology]] increased its influence through colleges and universities, as well as the film industry.

====1960 and beyond====
The decade of the 1960s would begin the most dramatic moral change in America's history. While a more developed moral social consciousness helped to effect beneficial and needed changes, such as in the area of civil rights, as regards such non-moral aspects as race and color, this recognition of basic equality was used by liberal moralists to advocate liberty for immorality in word and in deed, most predominately in the area of sensuality. The 1967 "Summer of love" saw hundreds of thousands of teenagers leaving their homes in search for deeper meaning, as well as satisfaction of fleshly lusts, with "turn on, tune in, and drop out," being a favorite phrase. Vast multitudes made their pilgrimage to the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco, an area home to many rock icons, and known for its liberalized ideology and culture. The civilization that resulted was a testimony to the practical result of the prolonged practice of this ideology, and when the infrastructure of tradition society, which they both rebelled against and depended upon, could no support them. While the [[liberal media]] tended to celebrate it as a positive attempt at Utopian culture, indolence, homelessness or unsanitary living, and drug use (and overdoses) abounded, along with marked increases in crime and disease. "By the fall of 1967, Haight-Ashbury was nearly abandoned, trashed, and laden with drugs and homeless people. Most of the kids that descended upon the Haight with such hope and optimism in June returned home sick and out of money by September."<ref>http://deathofthehippiesubculture.blogspot.com/2009/05/and-finally-bit-about-decline-of-hippie.html</ref>

The 1960s culminated with two major distinctive concerts in 1969, [[Woodstock]] and the [[Altamont Free Concert|Altamont Speedway Free Festival]]. The former would become the world's most celebrated rock concert, being peaceful despite over 500,000 people, while the other was the largest rock disaster ever, with security being provided by Hell's Angels (whom many saw as counter-cultural brothers), and a murderous man being killed while the [[Rolling Stones]] sang "Sympathy to the Devil".<ref>Adam Stanley. Minnesota echoes, Atamont</ref>

As regards moral decline, overall much of the generation of that decade and those that followed evidenced increased rebellion against authority in general(though usually not to living off the government) and against capitalism, and the promotion and practice of pre-marital [[sex]], recreational drug use, the rise of [[feminism]] and the advocation of liberal ideology. While most of the [[Liberal Media|main stream media]] and University professors in America are seen to treat this revolution and its foundational ethos as liberating and beneficial, its effects have been manifestly deleterious, as evidenced by multitudinous studies and statistics.<ref>[http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/RevealingStatistics.html ''REVEALING STATISTICS, or Costs of the war against God'']</ref>

While promoting tolerance within its culture, and (in the beginning) rejecting the idea that materialism brought fulfillment, the 1960s cultural [[revolution]] birthed an unprecedented intolerance of traditional values, while its affection for drugs - used to find the alternative reality they sought - and the its later promotion of the demonic [[victim mentality]] (Gn. 3:1-5), had destructive effects upon society, in particular upon its weakest members. The emphasis on social justice may well have been a means to justify a basic rebellion against authority in general, in particular fathers, headmasters, police officers, soldiers.

The rejection of Biblical and traditional sexual laws and promotion of sexual promiscuity and [[homosexuality]] would result in a greatly increased incidence of infectious diseases and premature death, with a half million of Americans dead because of [[AIDS]].

Colleges and universities largely became the seminaries of the new cultural "religion" and its ethos.<ref>Lewis H. Gann, Peter Duignan, The new left and the cultural revolution of the 1960's: a reevaluation. pp. 39-41</ref> Revised standard studies and new courses, such as gay studies, became part of the new orthodoxy, with a later neglect of core subjects.<ref>http://www.hacer.org/usa/?p=91</ref> Relative few teaching posts became staffed by conservatives.<ref>50% of American college faculty in 1999 identifying themselves as Democrats, and only 11% as Republicans.72% described themselves as "to the left of center," including 18% who were strongly left.

Religiously, a notable number of young seekers for a better reality became part of what some term a [[Fourth Great Awakening]], out of which evangelical churches such as [[Calvary Chapel]] began and grew to be significance denominations.

====Responses====
Reactions to moral decline in America have been varied. The [[liberal media]] and places of "higher" education (such as [[Harvard University]]) overall treated the 1960s sexual revolution as a "beneficial change", and a victory for its liberal ethos. Rock stars sang of and exampled - by their lives, and many by their deaths - the immorality of the later 1960s. Legitimate improvements in society were invoked as a means to justify the liberal movement as a whole. As regards faith in God, [[John Lennon]], who later (in 1971) would promote his godless fantasy with the song "Imagine", remarked in 1966 that the [[Beatles]] were more popular than Jesus Christ.

Among strong conservatives, the most consistent voices of opposition have been Evangelical "preachers of righteousness", exhorting repentance toward God and faith toward Jesus Christ. Moral separation from worldly living was enjoined, and some confronted social problems more directly, such as in actively opposing slavery in America, and evils such as drunkenness. Beginning in the late 1800s and continuing, Christian groups such as the [[Salvation Army]] became more evident, ministering to many of those who directly or indirectly suffered due to immorality.<ref>Gwendolyn Mink, Alice O'Connor, ''Poverty in the United States: an encyclopedia of history, politics ...,'', Volume 2, pp. 645-648</ref> Around the turn of the 20th century and up until he died, revivalist [[Billy Sunday]] (1862-1935) preached both salvation, as well as against the evil's of drink, etc. Also during the early 1900s, [[Fundamentalists]] began to become a distinct movement, combating liberal Christianity and its resultant moral laxity. Later, parachurch ministries, such as [[Focus in the Family]], and [[Jerry Falwell]]'s [[Moral Majority]] arose, seeking to strengthen Christians and oppose an increasingly perverted, persuasive, and pervasive hedonistic culture.

Conservatives sought to make good use of broadcast means, with conservative talk shows gaining in popularity. With the rise of the [[Internet]], conservative sites such as the [[Free Republic]] enabled large numbers to interact against liberalism, which also acquired their Internet venues. In response to the liberal slant of the Internet encyclopedia [[Wikipedia]], online conservative encyclopedias such as [[Conservapedia]] were created and grew.

Liberalism in general reacted to opposition with renewed efforts to promote practices such as pre-marital sex and abortion, and later, homosexuality, while often portraying themselves as "victims of repression". The [[Fairness Doctrine]], once used for a period of time before to curtail conservatism, was threatened to be brought back. Addressing those who cried against "imposition of morality" by Christian conservatives who sought to preserve or restore traditional values, Orthodox Jewish Rabbi Daniel Lapin argued,
<blockquote>
the secular Left has introduced sexual indoctrination and condom distribution to eleven-year-old public school students. It has made the enjoyment of tobacco the moral equivalent of child molestation. It has dramatically increased illegitimacy in America. It has created an entertainment ethos that brings smut and vulgarity into our living rooms. Take an honest look at the values that the secular Left has already succeeded in forcing down the throats of religious Americans. How can anyone honestly confront the changes that have been inflicted by the secular Left and worry about the changes that the religious Right might force down our throats. I contend that the values concerned Christians desire for America are not really changes, but simply the return to an earlier and legitimate status. If you fling an invader out of your land, back over the border he illegally crossed in the first place, you are not guilty of aggression. It is called self-defense. You are worried that the religious Right might succeed in forcing their values onto us? I am worried they might fail, for they are our values too. Or at least they ought to be.
<ref>America’s Real War, (1999), Multnomah Publishers; Quoted in http://www.contenderministries.org/articles/moraldecline.php</ref></blockquote>

A rare dissenting voice among a mainly liberal group was moderately conservative [[Democrat]] [[Daniel Patrick Moynihan]], who wrote ''Defining Deviancy Down'' (1993). Moynihan argued that, due to the "moral deregulation" of the 1960s,
<blockquote>
the amount of deviant behavior in American society has increased beyond the levels the community can "afford to recognize" and that, accordingly, we have been re-defining deviancy so as to exempt much conduct previously stigmatized, and also quietly raising the "normal" level in categories where behavior is now abnormal by any earlier standard. This redefining has evoked fierce resistance from defenders of "old" standards, and accounts for much of the present "cultural war" such as proclaimed by many at the 1992 Republican National Convention.
</blockquote>

He further sounded a warning that,
<blockquote>
there is one unmistakable lesson in American history: a community that allows a large number of young men to grow up in broken families, dominated by women, never acquiring any stable relationship to male authority, never acquiring any set of rational expectations about the future - that community asks for and gets chaos. Crime, violence, unrest, unrestrained lashing out at the whole social structure - that is not only to be expected; it is very near to inevitable.
</blockquote>

A minority of other voices also offered objective intellect analysis. In ''The new left and the cultural revolution of the 1960's: a reevaluation'' Lewis H. Gann, Peter Duignan, (Hoover Institution on War, Revolution, and Peace) observed (in part),
{{cquote|The youth culture of the period made a profound impression on the United States, Western Europe, and Japan. The youth culture also had strong echoes in what was then the communist world. Youthful revolutionaries, mostly middle class and college educated (a minority within the youthful age cohorts as a whole), meant to build a new utopia. The youth culture gained strength at a time when massive cohorts of baby boomers seemed to overwhelm the campuses. The cultural revolution failed in the short term. No Western government was ever in the slightest danger of being overthrown. Most student revolutionaries were reabsorbed by the "system" that they had professed to hate...Yet overall, the cultural revolution did far more harm than good by glamourizing drugs, by denigrating traditional values, by defaming "formal democracy" both in the United States and elsewhere...But a number of important movements were spawned by the New Left: ethnic studies, multiculturalism, relativism and political correctness, radical feminism, and gay and liberated youth. Of these, "political correctness" was most destructive of American institutions and values. The New Left's disastrous legacy was a crusading determination to reduce the humanities to a "politically correct" agenda, to smash the shackles of traditional sexual morality, to liberate youth from their elders, and to entrench entitlements and affirmative action into the American way of life.<ref>http://www.hooverpress.org/productdetails.cfm?PC=1227</ref>}}

'''Promiscuity''' is a form of [[sexual immorality]] involving indiscriminate or multiple [[sexual intercourse|sexual]] [[relationship]]s. [[Hollywood values|Hollywood]] [[movie]]s have a tendency to promote promiscuity more than [[family values]]. Promiscuity is also wildly practiced by the [[homosexual]] population (see [[Homosexuality and Promiscuity]]). The practice of promiscuity brings about a vastly increased risk of disease and premature death.

The philosophy of so-called "sexual freedom", on which the [[gay agenda|"gay" agenda]] is based, promotes self-gratification over self-restraint, causing both men and women to put their sexual desires ahead of the needs of their spouses and children. The result is an increase in [[adultery]], [[divorce]], abandonment and dysfunctional child-raising practices. Every act of sexual [[sin]] serves the "gay" advocates' interest by lessening the public will to uphold public morality{{#tag:ref|cf. 'Desensitization of public opinion' as [[psychological manipulation|manipulative tactic]] in [[After the Ball|''After the Ball'', the LGBTI “Mein Kampf” of "gay" propagandists]]|group=note}}, since no one wants to feel and be called a [[hypocrite]]. Although they obviously cannot have an "[[unwanted pregnancy]]," "Gay" advocates aggressively defend the [[abortion industry]] because preserving the option to destroy [[unborn child|unborn life]] is essential to maintaining "sexual freedom" alias promiscuity as a social norm and keep shifting the emphasis from family responsibility to self-gratification.<ref name="Lively2009">{{cite book |title=Redeeming the Rainbow: A Christian Response to the "Gay" Agenda |author=[[Scott Lively]] |publisher=Veritas Aeterna Press |place=Springfield, MA |year=2009 |edition=1 (Version 1.1)|pages=7–8 |url=http://www.massresistance.org/docs/gen/09b/Redeeming_rainbow}}</ref>
Homosexuals themselves, especially male, are not promiscuous because of "internalized [[Gleichschaltung#Homophobia|homophobia]]", or laws banning same-sex "marriage", but because when given the choice, they overwhelmingly choose to be promiscuous. Wrecking the fundamental social building block of [[civilization]], [[family]], is not going to change it. Substitute sex dominating the promiscuous gay culture indicates the absence of love altogether, as one does not relate to the other as a person, but as an object. It is dehumanized and dehumanizing, it treats other human being as a mere appurtenance to one's desires. According to American composer Ned Rorem, the anonymous sex could never be repeated with the same person, "precisely because the next time he would be a person." [[Aristotle]] criticized treating other person as object in his ''Ethics'' where he wrote: ''"Those who love for the sake of pleasure do so for the sake of what is pleasant to themselves, and not in so far as the other is the person loved."''<ref name="Reilly2014">{{cite book |title=Making Gay Okay: How Rationalizing Homosexual Behavior is Changing Everything |author=Robert R.

A Quartz website article indicates:
{{Cquote|Evidence suggests that [https://theconversation.com/religiosity-about-reproduction-more-than-cooperation-18935 religion and sexual behavior are often linked]. Many major religions, such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam and some traditional religions, promote lifestyles emphasizing fidelity and underscoring the importance of caring for one’s family. And a large body of research suggests that such religions may be especially attractive to people who value such commitments—perhaps precisely because those religions help to reinforce their own lifestyle choices...

Still, knowing the perceived connection between faith and sexual commitment, we suspected that people may see atheists, relative to believers, as less likely to endorse values like monogamy and caring for one’s family—values associated with being sexually committed.

In such people’s minds, sexually uncommitted behavior is linked to several other traits and social behavior, such as opportunism and being impulsive—traits that hardly inspire trust

At 2:30 AM EDT of the 4th of November 2020, TV broadcasts reported that Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Nevada and Georgia decided to cease vote counting operations and would continue the following day. This unanimous decision to initially and intentionally stop counting by all five battleground states was unprecedented, and it demonstrates prior coordination by election officials in battleground states. This allowed for more time to manufacture fraudulent ballots.

An independent forensic audit of Dominion Voting Systems machines used in [[Michigan]] concluded:

In January 2020 [[Dominion Election Systems]] [[CEO]] John Poulos testified before Congress that Dominion machines are composed of parts manufactured in China from "screen on the interface down to the chip component level."

In 2016 Dominion Voting Systems Vice President of Engineering [[Eric Coomer]] was asked if it was possible to bypass election systems software and go directly to the data tables that manage systems running elections in [[Illinois]]. His response was, “Yes, if they have access.”<ref>https://www.thepostemail.com/2016/09/01/critical-flaws-in-election-security-confirmed-by-dominion-voting-executive/</ref> Bypassing the election systems software means whoever has access can potentially manipulate the vote without many risks of detection. Coomer was asked who would have access to these data tables?

===Ignoring mail-in ballot safeguards===

[[File:PA mail-in fraud.jpeg|right|350px|thumb|Pennsylvania mailed out 1.8 Million mail-in ballots, buy got back 2.5 million.<ref>https://youtu.be/2AYSs77k2tY</ref>]]
[[Pennsylvania]] Secretary of Commonwealth [[Kathy Boockvar]] and the county officials repeatedly ignored essential safeguards for absentee and mail-in voting which require “procedural safeguards to deter fraud and ensure transparency” due to “inherent risk.” In December 2019, Pennsylvania’s auditor general, Eugene DePasquale, determined that there are more than 50,000 cases of potentially inaccurate voter records in the state’s system.

On October 31, 2019, Pennsylvania’s legislature passed Act 77, which allowed all Pennsylvania voters the option of voting by mail without providing a reason or excuse. Yet mail-in voting still requires a ballot application and the election code still bars ballot harvesting except in the case of disabled voters. Pennsylvania law still requires ballots that have been filled out incompletely or incorrectly to be declared void and it does not permit election boards to give voters who cast improper ballots a “notice and opportunity to cure” those ballots.

Importantly, Act 77 prohibits a voter from casting both a mail-in ballot and an in-person ballot, unless the voter returns an unvoted mail-in ballot and declares that he or she has not voted by mail. The lawsuit alleged,
{{quotebox-float|“Defendants failed to take adequate measures to ensure that the provisions of the Election Code enacted to protect the validity of absentee or mail-in ballots, including without limitation Act 77, were followed.”}}

Biden's son [[Hunter Biden]] is partnered with the [[People's Republic of China|Chinese state]]. Joe Biden holds a 10% interest. Hunter's entire investment partnership uses Chinese state money from its social security fund to the China Development Bank. The partnership, [[Bohai Harvest|Bohai Harvest RST]], is actually a subsidiary of the Bank of China.

Though the entire size of the fund cannot be reconstructed, a co-founder who is now detained in China, reports that Bohai Harvest RST is not the $1-1.5 billion reported, but rather $6.5 billion. Hunter's stake, as of 2020, is worth at least $50 million if he were to sell it.

All players on the Chinese side of the partnership are linked with influence and intelligence organizations. China uses very innocuous sounding organization names to mask [[PLA]], United Front, or the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs influence/intelligence operations. Hunter was the target of an operation to compromise him and his father.

The operational mastermind behind the efforts to compromise the Biden family is a man named [[Yang Jiechi]]. He is currently the CCP Director of Foreign Affairs leading strategist on [[America]], a [[Politburo]] member, one of the most powerful men in China, and [[Xi Jinping]] confidant. As Chinese ambassador to the United States when Biden chaired the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he met regularly with Senator Biden. Later he was Minister of Foreign Affairs when the Bohai Harvest RST investment partnership was made official in 2013.

Yang Jiechi is the point person in China for dealing with the United States. This raises major [[national Security]] concerns about a [[Biden administration]] dealing impartially with an individual in this capacity. These are documented facts from Chinese corporate records such as IPO prospectuses and media, and raise very valid concerns about Biden linkages to China.<ref>https://www.baldingsworld.com/2020/10/22/report-on-biden-activities-with-china/</ref>

In a recorded call made sometime after [[Ye Jianming]], Hunter's business partner, went missing in February 2018, Hunter is heard speaking in an agitated tone,
{{quotebox-float|"I get calls from my father to tell me that ''[[The New York Times]]'' is calling, but my old partner, Eric, who literally has done me harm for I don’t know how long, is the one taking the calls because my father will not stop sending the calls to Eric.

====CCP collusion====
On November 28, 2020 a top Chinese economics professor told students in Beijing how the [[People's Republic of China]] was able to easily settle disputes with prior American administrations because they have people at the top of America, specifically on [[Wall Street]]. But when President Trump was elected, all that Chinese influence went away. "Wall Street can't fix Trump," the professor said.<ref>https://youtu.be/yB07iLF2ZWw</ref> Di Dongsheng, a vice-dean at the School of International Relations at Renmin University, made public statements before a large audience:
{{Quotebox-float|"We know that the [[Trump administration]] is in a trade war with us, so why can’t we fix the Trump administration? Why did China and the US used to be able to settle all kinds of issues between 1992 and 2016?" he asked. "I’m going to throw out something maybe a little bit explosive here. It’s just because we have people at the top. We have our old friends who are at the top of America’s core inner circle of power and influence."

"During the US-China trade war, [[Wall Street]] tried to help, and I know that my friends on the US side told me that they tried to help, but they couldn’t do much. But now we’re seeing Biden was elected, the traditional elite, the political elite, the establishment, they’re very close to Wall Street, so you see that, right?"

In addition to Biden's longstanding alliance with fellow Democrat segregationists in the U.S. Senate, Biden is known for a history of making racially insensitive remarks. Reportedly, Biden’s political approach to race has long been geared toward assuaging the racial anxieties of white voters. Biden exposed his racial insensitivity towards the 2008 Democratic Presidential candidate and running mate, Barack Obama, when he declared, "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy."

Democrat presidential nominee former [[Vice President]] [[Joe Biden]] made a particularly offensive and egregious [[racist]] comment toward [[African American]]s during a radio interview.<ref>https://youtu.be/GaTv5FQHqVw</ref> Biden's comments were an effort at [[voter intimidation]].

Biden won the Democrat presidential nomination when South Carolina Rep. [[James Clyburn]] endorsed him, and the dominos of the Democrat machine fell into place. In short choreographed order, the remaining white candidates, Amy Klobuchar, [[Pete Buttigieg]], Tom Steyer, [[Michael Bloomberg]] and a host of local officials began goosestepping in lockstep. Kamala Harris,<ref>https://archive.vn/2Smfh</ref> [[Cory Booker]], [[Julian Castro]], and [[Tulsi Gabbard]] had been driven out earlier in a rigged process that allowed rich white billionaires - Steyer and Bloomberg - to buy their way in once all the minority candidates were forced out.<ref>https://legalinsurrection.com/2020/02/michael-moore-goes-ballistic-on-dnc-for-changing-debate-rules-for-bloomberg/</ref> Clyborn admitted he cringed when he heard Biden's racist attack on Black people.<ref>https://youtu.be/HNgrTu1YhuU</ref>

Biden cynically tried to take advantage of George Floyd's killing, which occurred only days later, to repair his relations with Blacks by attacking the police and accusing them of [[systemic racism]]. Police groups and unions which Biden courted since the 1990s on behalf of the [[Clinton administration]] with the [[Biden Crime Bill]], mass incarceration, and effort to put 100,000 new cops on the street to deal with "Superpredators", responded by withdrawing their support.<ref>https://www.politico.com/news/2020/06/04/police-groups-joe-biden-300222</ref>

When Biden supporters tore down statues of [[George Washington]] and [[Thomas Jefferson]] because they were slave owners, Biden never condemned the violence and vandalism and accused President Trump of being America's first racist president. Biden conveniently overlooked the racism of President's [[Woodrow Wilson]] and [[Lyndon Johnson]], and a dozen other Democrat presidents who were slave owners.

Biden's decades long collaboration with segregationist Senators, there is no record of Biden ever calling them "clown's, "racists", or telling them to "shut up". Contrarily, Biden had nothing but kind and loving words of praise at their retirements and funerals.

In 1972 Biden re-cycled the [[John_C._Calhoun#positive good|racist rhetoric of John C. Calhoun]], arguing that school segregation was a "positive good" for Blacks. Calhoun famously laid out his doctrine of separation of the races as a civilizing force among Blacks which became Democrat talking points before the [[Dred Scott]] decision, throughout the [[Civil War]], [[Reconstruction]], the [[Jim Crow]] era, and the [[New Deal]]. In a Democrat [[filibuster]] on the floor of the [[Senate]], Calhoun famously said:
{{quotebox-float|"I hold that in the present state of civilization, where two races of different origin, and distinguished by color, and other physical differences, as well as intellectual, are brought together, the relation now existing in the slaveholding States between the two, is, instead of an evil, a good—a positive good."}}
Biden resurrected the idea that segregation was "for their own good" and that Blacks were grateful for it.
{{Quotebox-float|“I think the concept of busing … that we are going to [[integrate]] people so that they all have the same access and they learn to grow up with one another and all the rest, is a rejection of the whole movement of black pride, a rejection of the entire black awareness concept, where black is beautiful, black culture should be studied; and the cultural awareness of the importance of their own identity, their own individuality.”<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/read-the-transcript-of-the-october-1975-npr-interview-with-sens-joe-biden-and-edward-brooke</ref>}}

In the 21st century Biden tried to separate himself from his previous racist statements on school integration:
{{quotebox-float|"Poor kids are just as smart as white kids."}}
Biden led a coalition of segregationists that was opposed by Republican Sen. [[Edward Brooke]], the first [[African American]] senator elected since Democrats forced the end of [[Reconstruction]] after the [[American Civil War|Civil War]]. National Public Radio's David Ensor asked Biden, "What about a constitutional amendment? Isn’t that what you’re gonna have to end up supporting if you want to stop court ordered busing, too?" Biden responded,
{{Quotebox-float|"That would clearly do it. I’m hopeful, and I have — now that I have some sort of new allies in this area, it’s become respectable now for [[liberal]]s to at least say publicly what they’ve been saying in private, that busing doesn’t work. We are trying to figure out whether or not we can come up with an innovative piece of legislation which would limit the remedy, and I don’t — honestly don’t know whether we can come up with something constitutional. And if we can’t, I will not in an attempt to eliminate busing violate the Constitution. I won’t do that. The only way, if I’m gonna go at it, I’m gonna go at it through a Constitutional Amendment if it can’t be done through a piece of legislation."}}
Ensor reported that Biden proposed renewing segregation because busing "wasn't working" ("wasn't working" to the electoral advantage of Democrats and not necessarily to the cause of equal rights for Blacks), and Biden was afraid that older liberal colleagues were blind to how Black separatists felt about their children being bused to [[white]] schools.

Sen. James Abourezk of [[South Dakota]] related how Biden reacted when Abrourezek tried to block the amendment:
{{quotebox-float|‘Abourezk, you **********, if I ever vote for another one of your bills, it'll be a cold day in hell.'

‘Calm down, Joe,' I told him, ‘You're eventually gonna thank me for doing this.'

A few days later, Biden came into the scheduled committee meeting, this time with a broad, friendly grin aimed directly at me.

‘Jesus, Abourezk, you were right,' he said. ‘I am gonna thank you. You should see the Delaware newspapers—big front-page headlines saying, ‘Biden Battles Liberals in Washington.'

''The New York Times'' published a lengthy story on Biden's advocacy of segregation. In a 1977 congressional hearing related to anti-desegregation orders, Biden emphasized,

Republican Sen. [[Edward Brooke]], the first black senator ever to be popularly elected, called Biden's amendment “the greatest symbolic defeat for [[civil rights]] since 1964.” Brooke accused Biden of leading an assault on integration.

Prof. Ronnie Dunn said opposition to busing was motivated by [[racism]] and that without the court-ordered policy Biden probably would not have become vice president in 2009. “What I find ironic is that [Biden] was the vice president under a president who, if it hadn’t been for the social interaction that occurred during the era of busing, I argue we likely would not have seen the election of Barack Obama." Dunn, an Urban Studies professor at Cleveland State University and author of the book ''Boycotts, Busing, & Beyond'', said Biden made the case in favor of maintaining segregation. "That was an argument against desegregation.” Dunn said Biden must address the issue if he runs for president. “People have to be held accountable."<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/joe-biden-embraced-segregation-in-1975-claiming-it-was-a-matter-of-black-pride</ref>

===Superpredators===
[[File:Joe Biden.jpg|250px|right|thumb|Biden [[collude]]d with segregationists to undermine the Supreme Court decision of ''Brown vs. Board''.]]
In a 1993 Senate floor speech, Biden warned of "predators on our streets" who were "beyond the pale" and said they must be cordoned off from the rest of society because the justice system did not know how to rehabilitate them. Biden described a {{quotebox-float|"cadre of young people, tens of thousands of them, born out of wedlock, without parents, without supervision, without any structure, without any conscience developing because they literally ... because they literally have not been socialized, they literally have not had an opportunity."}}
Biden went on in the same breath, {{quotebox-float|"It doesn't matter whether or not the person that is accosting your son or daughter or my son or daughter, my wife, your husband, my mother, your parents, it doesn't matter whether or not they were deprived as a youth. It doesn't matter whether or not they had no background that enabled them to become socialized into the fabric of society. It doesn't matter whether or not they're the victims of society. The end result is they're about to knock my mother on the head with a lead pipe, shoot my sister, beat up my wife, take on my sons."}}
Biden said, that he didn't care "why someone is a malefactor in society" and that criminals needed to be "away from my mother, your husband, our families." Biden added "we should focus on them now" because "if we don't, they will, or a portion of them, will become the predators 15 years from now."

Biden's comments echoed first lady [[Hillary Clinton]]'s inflammatory statement about "Superpredators" with "no conscience, no empathy" and "we need to bring them to heel."

===Biden Crime Bill===
:{{Main article|The New Jim Crow}}
Biden was a staunch opponent of school desegregation in the 1970s and leading crusader for mass incarceration in the 1980s and 1990s. Biden described [[African American]] felons in the aftermath of the Central Park Five jogger case as 'predators' too [[sociopath]]ic to rehabilitate,<ref>https://www.cnn.com/2019/03/07/politics/biden-1993-speech-predators/index.html</ref> and [[white supremacist]] senators as his friends.

Biden boasts as one of his greatest legislative achievements passage of the 1994 Crime bill which locked up 10% of the Black adult male population of the United States.<ref>http://www.prisonpolicy.org/research/incarceration_rates_growth_causes/</ref>

When [[President George H.W. Bush]] asked for a record increase in funding to fight the [[War on Drugs]], Biden told a TV interviewer {{Quotebox|"In a nutshell, the President's plan does not include enough police officers to catch the violent thugs, enough prosecutors to convict them, enough judges to sentence them or enough prison cells to put them away for a long time."<ref>http://articles.latimes.com/1989-09-06/news/mn-1646_1_drug-war</ref><ref>http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/12/first-step-act-skepticism.html</ref>}} [[File:1994 Superpredator Act.jpg|left|350px|thumb|The Superpredator Act of 1994. Feinstein, Kerry and Biden are clearly visible with President Clinton. The bill is known for its sentencing disparities which led to mass incarceration of Blacks.<ref>https://fair.org/home/senate-crime-bill-unscrutinized-by-the-press/</ref>]] Biden, [[Ted Kennedy]], and [[Strom Thurmond]] worked on proposals that raised maximum penalties, removed a directive requiring the US Sentencing Commission to take into account prison capacity, and created the cabinet-level “drug czar” position. In 1984, they passed the Comprehensive Crime Control Act, which, among other things, abolished [[parole]], imposed a less generous cap on “good time” sentence reductions, and allowed the Sentencing Commission to issue more punitive guidelines.

Biden bragged on the Senate floor that it was under his and Thurmond's leadership that Congress passed a law sending anyone caught with a rock of cocaine the size of a quarter to jail for a minimum of five years - the notoriously racist hundred-to-one sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. In the same speech Biden took credit for [[civil asset forfeiture]] and seizure laws, and demanded to know why [[Papa Bush]] hadn't sentenced more drug dealers to life in prison or exercise the [[death penalty]] once Congress had given him that power.<ref name="c-span.org"/>

Biden's version of a new crime bill added more than forty crimes that would be eligible for the [[death penalty]]. Biden boasted “we do everything but hang people for jaywalking.”<ref name="books.google.com"/> The [[NAACP]] and other groups lobbied against the bill.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/1991/10/27/us/civil-libertarians-go-after-crime-bills.html</ref> Although the 1991 crime bill was defeated by Republicans, the 1994 Biden/Clinton crime bill was passed.<ref>''[https://books.google.com/books?id=SGUJBAAAQBAJ&lpg=PT142&dq=biden%20strongly%20believes%20the%20administration%20needs%20to%20seize%20control%20of%20the%20issue%20by%20upping%20the%20ante&pg=PT142#v=onepage&q=biden%20strongly%20believes%20the%20administration%20needs%20to%20seize%20control%20of%20the%20issue%20by%20upping%20the%20ante&f=false The First Civil Right: How Liberals Built Prison America]'', Naomi Murakawa.</ref>

By 2001, the United States had the highest rate of incarceration in the world. [[Human Rights Watch]] reported that in seven states, African Americans constituted 80 to 90 percent of all drug offenders even though they were no more likely than whites to use or sell illegal drugs. Prison admissions for drug offenses reached a level in 2000 for African Americans more than 26 times the level they had been under [[Ronald Reagan]].<ref>[https://www.thenation.com/article/hillary-clinton-does-not-deserve-black-peoples-votes/ Why Hillary Clinton Doesn’t Deserve the Black Vote], Michelle Alexander, ''The Nation'', February 10, 2016</ref> Biden's "social planning" had proven effective.

In May 2019 journalist and historian Shaun King observed, {{Quotebox|I’ve heard a very dangerous lie being told about how the systems of mass incarceration were built in this nation. I didn’t expect to have to respond this way because I didn’t expect Joe Biden to lie about the 1994 Crime Bill. He wrote it. He fought for it. And the results were devastating. Every single expert on this topic agrees. This week Joe Biden took the stance that not only is he not sorry for the Crime Bill, but that it didn’t even increase mass incarceration. And it’s shameful because either he’s willfully lying, which is horrible, or he’s just plain ignorant about the true impact of the bill, which is also horrible. Either way, I have a major problem with it because these laws are still in effect and they are doing damage in our communities every single day, 24 hours a day.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/shaunking/videos/688203931610804/</ref>}}
The Leftist ''Jacobin'' magazine summed up Biden's record:
{{Quotebox-float|"It’s not as if Biden didn’t know what he was doing.... He just didn’t care. Biden had made a calculated decision that the elections he would win were worth the damage he inflicted.... But even if Biden has subsequently learned the error of his ways, the rank cynicism and callousness involved in his two-decade-long championing of carceral policies should be more than enough to give anyone pause about his qualities as a leader, let alone a [[progressive]] one."<ref>https://www.jacobinmag.com/2018/08/biden-crime-mass-incarceration-police-prisons</ref>}}

===Anita Hill hearings===
Biden as chair of the Judiciary Committee, called for extended hearings to delay a vote on Thomas and accommodate her last-minute allegations with televised hearings that traumatized the country. Biden told Sen. [[Arlen Specter]] that “It was clear to me from the way she was answering the questions, [Hill] was lying” about the central theme of her testimony. Biden used [[homophobia]], allegations by a Republican Senator that Anita Hill had "certain proclivities" to discredit her testimony, to attack Hill's critics while at the same time fight the nomination of an [[uppity]] Black. Biden has been widely criticized for his [[racist]], [[sexist]], and [[bigot]]ted handling of the hearings.<ref>https://www.essence.com/news/politics/joe-biden-anita-hill-comment-2020-presidential-run/</ref><ref>https://youtu.be/sM19YOqs7hU</ref>

===Flagship of the Confederacy===
:{{See also|Southern Manifesto}}
The Southern Manifesto was a document written after the landmark Supreme Court 1954 ruling [[Brown v. Board of Education]], which integrated public schools. It was drawn up by legislators in the [[United States Congress]] opposed to racial integration in public places. It was signed by politicians from the former [[Confederate States of America|Confederate States]]. All but twenty-eight of the 138 southern Democrat members of Congress signed the Manifesto, including 19 of the Majority Democrat Senators.<ref>https://d1lexza0zk46za.cloudfront.net/history/am-docs/southern-manifesto.pdf</ref>

The Southern Manifesto was signed on a large mahogany conference table in Sen. [[John Stennis]]' office which Stennis used as his desk and referred to as "the flagship of the [[Confederacy]]."<ref>[https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CDOC-111sdoc23/pdf/CDOC-111sdoc23.pdf p. x]</ref> The table was used by segregationist and co-signer of the Southern Manifesto, Sen. [[Richard Russell]], before his retirement. When Stennis retired in 1988, Biden took over Stennis' office, including the conference table. When Biden was elected vice-president in 2008, Biden had the conference table moved into the vice-president's office.<ref>[https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/resources/pdf/Kaufman_Oral_History.pdf pg. 51]</ref>

Folks, I voted for a fence. I voted and, unlike most Democrats - some of you won't like it - I voted for 700 miles of fence. Let me tell you, we can build a fence 40 stories high - unless we change the dynamic in Mexico, and you will you like this - and punish American employers who knowingly violate the law when in fact they hire illegals. Unless you do those two things, all the rest is window dressing. Now I know I'm not supposed to say it that bluntly. But they are facts. They are the facts.

And so, everything else we do is in between here, everything else we do is at the margin.

==Biden junta==
:{{See also|Biden Junta}}
The Biden junta seized power through a coup via [[Democrat election fraud|extensive voter fraud]] on November 4, 2020 and formally installed itself on January 20, 2021. Biden's installation as "president" turned out to be a complete sham compared with the inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20, 2017, as a photo comparison of the two inaugurations showed that compared to the hundreds of thousands who attended the Trump inauguration (with the crowd stretching from the Capitol all the way to the Washington Monument), Biden's installation was very sparsely attended, with what appeared to be no more than a few dozen members of the public present at most;<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/clear-based-comparison-president-trumps-2017-inauguration-bidens-inauguration-biden-no-support-election-suspect/ It’s Clear Based on a Comparison Between President Trump’s 2017 Inauguration and Biden’s Inauguration that Biden Has No Support and Election Is Suspect

"I conclude that a combination of lost cryptographic key contained on stolen USB memory cards, serious exploitable system and [[software]] vulnerabilities and operating system backdoor in DVS, Scytl, SOE Software/eClarity and Smartmatic created the perfect environment to commit widespread fraud in all states where these systems are installed. My analysis of the 2020 Election from ''NY Times'' data shows statistical anomalies across the battleground state votes. These failures are widespread and systemic - and sufficient to invalidate the [[vote]] counts.

"I conclude with high confidence that the election 2020 data were altered in all [[swing states|battleground states]] resulting in a hundreds of thousands of votes that were cast for [[President Trump]] to be transferred to [[Vice President Biden]]. These alterations were the result of systemic and widespread exploitable vulnerabilities in DVS, Scytl/SOE Software and Smartmatic systems that enabled operators to achieve
the desired results. In my view, the evidence is overwhelming and incontrovertible."<ref>https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mied.350905/gov.uscourts.mied.350905.1.19.pdf</ref>}}

===Mental capacity===
Four weeks into the junta, ''[[Politico]]'' reported that nearly three dozen House Democrats called on Biden to relinquish his sole authority to launch [[nuclear weapon]]. “...Vesting one person with this authority entails real risks...Past presidents have threatened to attack other countries with nuclear weapons or exhibited behavior that caused other officials to express concern about the president’s judgment...While any president would presumably consult with advisors before ordering a nuclear attack, there is no requirement to do so...The military is obligated to carry out the order if they assess it is legal under the laws of war. Under the current posture of U.S. nuclear forces, that attack would happen in minutes.”<ref>https://www.politico.com/newsletters/morning-defense/2021/02/23/tester-outlines-defense-budget-strategy-793538?cid=su_tw_md</ref> The effort was spearheaded by Democrat Reps. [[Jimmy Panetta]] and [[Ted Lieu]] after both international and national media questioned Biden's mental capacity and the threat it posed to national security.<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/02/believe-joe-bidens-mental-state-clear-national-security-threat-newsmax-host-grant-stinchfield-joe-bidens-dementia-video/</ref><ref>https://www.skynews.com.au/details/_6233603126001</ref>

===Attack on civil liberties===
CNET reported the following back in 2008:
{{Quotebox-float|“Months before the [[Oklahoma City bombing]] took place, Biden introduced another bill called the Omnibus Counterterrorism Act of 1995. It previewed the 2001 Patriot Act by allowing secret evidence to be used in prosecutions, expanding the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and wiretap laws, creating a new federal crime of ‘terrorism’ that could be invoked based on political beliefs, permitting the U.S. military to be used in civilian law enforcement, and allowing permanent detention of non-U.S. citizens without judicial review. The Center for National Security Studies said the bill would erode ‘constitutional and statutory due process protections’ and would ‘authorize the Justice Department to pick and choose crimes to investigate and prosecute based on political beliefs and associations.’<ref>https://www.thebigsmoke.com.au/2021/01/10/joe-biden-authored-the-patriot-act-now-hes-promised-new-domestic-terror-laws/</ref>}}
Even ''Jacobin'' magazine noted, "The danger is real that the [[Capitol riot|January 6 Capitol attack]] will be used as an excuse to severely curtail our civil liberties."<ref>https://www.jacobinmag.com/2021/01/joe-biden-domestic-terrorism-bill-capitol-building</ref> After assuming full command of the junta, Biden referred to Republicans as "[[Neanderthal]]s".<ref>https://thepoliticalinsider.com/republicans-hit-back-at-unity-president-bidens-neanderthal-insult/</ref>

===Antifa===
Biden refused to denounce terrorist Anarcho-coummunist group of [[Antifa]] during the first debate with president Donald Trump. He claimed they are "just an idea", not an organization. He pretends that [[FBI]] Bureau’s director Chris Wray told lawmakers that Antifa is an ideology not a terrorist group, but the fact this is not what Wray said, Wray said: “any number of properly predicated investigations into what we would describe as violent anarchist extremists,” which included individuals who identity with Antifa.<ref>[https://www.nationalreview.com/news/biden-says-antifa-is-an-idea-not-an-organization-during-presidential-debate/ Biden Says Antifa Is ‘An Idea, Not An Organization’ during Presidential Debate]</ref> It appears that Biden and Antifa have some relations, as when someone looks up the website Antifa.com, Biden's election campaign page will appear.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHDVYKgLODY</ref>

===Fracking===
During the Democrat primary elections Biden stated several times that he will end [[Fracking|fracking]].<ref>[https://www.atr.org/biden-yes-we-should-end-fracking?amp Biden: "Yes" We Should End Fracking]</ref><ref>[https://www.newsweek.com/biden-claimed-he-never-wanted-ban-fracking-he-did-1541552 Biden Claimed He Never Wanted to Ban Fracking. He Did]</ref> After winning the primary elections he pretended that he had never said that he will end fracking to his supporters in [[Pennsylvania]], and he declined to comment further on ending fracking. The [[Washington Post]] admitted that Biden will lose his popularity in Pennsylvania because of his comments on fracking.<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/biden-fracking-unions-pennsylvania/2020/10/22/447d31de-12cf-11eb-ad6f-36c93e6e94fb_story.html Biden's fracking comments could cost him Pennsylvania ...]</ref>

===Police===
Biden flip-flops on defunding police. He changed his positions three times on defunding police.<ref>https://www.azcentral.com/story/opinion/op-ed/2020/08/26/joe-biden-flips-defund-police-how-can-we-trust-him/3424969001/</ref> On July 8, 2020 he agreed on defunding some levels of police.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppoUCQLSXFE</ref> In the first presidential debate, Biden accused police and falsely called them ‘systemic racists’. <ref>https://www.teletrader.com/biden-systemic-racism-in-us-present-beyond-police/news/details/52383496?internal=1&ts=1604959273788&culture=de-CH</ref>

===Supreme court===
Biden wants to violate the Constitution by expanding Supreme court members.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/22/us/politics/biden-supreme-court-packing.html</ref> At the presidential debate, Biden refused to confirm that.<ref> https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/22/joe-biden-court-packing-judicial-reforms-commission-431157</ref>

===Illegal Immigration===
Biden didn’t consider Illegal immigrants as illegals, he calls them instead "undocumented immigrants". <ref> https://joebiden.com/immigration/</ref> In a presidential debate he admitted that he will give citizenship to 11 million illegal immigrants. <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbzEuEr7Fio</ref> Biden stated that he wants to reform ICE policies, without saying which of these policies he wants to reform. <ref> https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/biden-knocks-left-wing-of-democratic-party-we-shouldnt-abolish-ice</ref>

The junta stepped up the "Babies in Cages" program initially begun under the Obama administration.<ref>https://thepoliticalinsider.com/wh-press-secretary-jen-psaki-defends-biden-reopening-babies-in-cages-migrant-program/</ref>

===Gun rights===
Biden plans to control people's right to own guns, for example, banning semi-automatic firearms.<ref>https://joebiden.com/gunsafety/#</ref> He pretends that his plan does not violate the [[Second Amendment]].<ref>[https://www.nraila.org/articles/20200921/joe-biden-told-voters-the-second-amendment-does-not-protect-an-individual-right Joe Biden Told Voters the Second Amendment DOES NOT Protect an Individual Right]</ref> Biden has no tolerance for anyone who opposes his anti-gun campaign, on 10 March 2020 he threatened to fight a civilian worker in Detroit, and disrespected him by calling him 'Full of Sh*t' because he mentioned Joe's past statements.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9k2UeoY4uyU</ref>

===Islam===
Biden plans to bring hundreds of thousands of Muslims from radical countries.<ref>[https://www.newsweek.com/dncs-deepening-embrace-radical-islamists-opinion-1527239 The DNC's Deepening Embrace of Radical Islamists | Opinion]</ref> Biden was criticized when he promised to let kids learn Sharia law in public schools.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCkqSZp6nkc Why Joe Biden Wants to Teach Your Kids Islam]</ref> To convince Muslims to vote for him he used one of the most radical hadiths: whoever sees evil let him change by his hand, if he cannot then with his tongue, if he cannot then with his heart (by hating), and that's the weakest faith. This is same hadith which was used by the [[September 11, 2001 attack]] perpetrators.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOhjQ9qoVJw Joe Biden Accidentally Calls for Jihad against America]</ref>

===Abortion===
Biden has a far-Left position on [[abortion]], he said that he will support abortion in all circumstances including [[Late-term abortion|late term abortion]].<ref>[https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/supporting-roe-means-supporting-abortion-until-birth/ Supporting Roe Means Supporting Abortion until Birth]</ref> He also said that he will stop any state from preventing abortion.<ref>[https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/joe-biden-i-support-abortion-under-any-circumstance Joe Biden: I support abortion ‘under any circumstance’]</ref>

===Gender confusion===
Biden will allow children in schools to "change" their gender without their parents' permission. He will also allow [[gender confusion|gender-confused]] boys to play sport with girls, and use their bathrooms and their locker rooms. This was a listed priority on the Biden-Harris campaign website. He will reinstate the Obama-Biden guidance revoked by the Trump-Pence Administration, which will restore gender-confused students’ access to sports, bathrooms, and locker rooms in accordance with their claimed gender identity. The Biden LGBTQ+ policy would allow also biological males who identify as "females" to be granted access to female locker rooms, bathrooms and sports teams without even undergoing confirmation surgery or using hormone replacements.<ref>[https://www.cnsnews.com/article/washington/lucy-collins/hawley-biden-plan-force-schools-let-transgenders-play-girls-sports Hawley: Biden Plan to Force Schools to Let Transgenders Play Girls' Sports, Use Their Locker Rooms, 'Startling Revelation of Where His Mind is At']</ref>

A Harris Poll commissioned by [[GLAAD]] prior to the 2020 election showed that U.S. adults are increasingly uncomfortable with [[LGBT]] issues — with Millennials ages 18 – 34 leading this shift. The number of non-LGBT adults ages 18 – 34 who are uncomfortable with learning a family member is LGBT rose from 24% at the end of the Obama era in 2016 to 36% in 2018. The number of Millennials uncomfortable with the idea of their children having a lesson on LGBT history at school rose from 27% to 39% during that same time. The number of Millennials that GLAAD counts as “allies” — people who are comfortable with the [[homosexual agenda]] and [[progressivism]] — dropped from 62% in 2016 to 45% in 2018.<ref>https://www.christianpost.com/news/millennials-gen-z-growing-uncomfortable-lgbt-movement-survey.html</ref> A fake news poll conducted by the [[Soros]]-funded, [[homosexual]]-centered "[[Human Rights Campaign]]" claims that 98% of [[heterosexual|straight]] [[male]]s refuse to date a gender-confused person allegedly because of "[[hate]]."<ref>https://ucf.forums.rivals.com/threads/are-you-in-the-98-of-hate.76324/</ref>

In January 2021, Biden nominated [[Richard Levine]]—a gender-confused male who claims to be a "female" named "Rachel"—as his Assistant Health Secretary.<ref>https://therightscoop.com/biden-taps-transgender-to-be-assistant-health-secretary-and-hes-very-controversial/</ref> Levine served under the administration of totalitarian governor [[Tom Wolf]] during the [[CCP pandemic]] and is directly responsible for thousands of deaths in nursing homes.<ref>Scolforo, Mark (June 26, 2020).

====TPP====
Biden plans for return to [[Trans-Pacific Partnership]], despite it damages to the US economy.<ref>[https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2020/11/09/business/us-return-tpp-joe-biden/ Prospects dim for early U.S. return to TPP despite Biden win]</ref> He seeks to abolish most, if not all [[tariffs]] which were enacted by President Trump.<ref>[https://www.geopoliticalmonitor.com/prospects-for-trans-pacific-partnership-tpp-trade-deal-under-a-biden-presidency/ Prospects for the Trans-Pacific Partnership Trade Deal under a Biden Presidency]</ref>

====China====
Biden has friendly relations with the Communist government of China.

Vice foreign minister He Yafei said: despite differences in political ideology, there could still be opportunities for long-term cooperation. “Multilateralism, I will say, is very much needed at this critical moment,” he said. “For China, the US and the EU, all of us should rethink who we are and what roles we can play in the future.<ref>[https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/3109496/us-china-relations-trump-divisions-could-haunt-biden US-China relations: Trump divisions could haunt Biden presidency]</ref>

====North Korea====
Biden criticized President Trump for his meeting with North Korea president [[Kim Jong-un]], despite this meeting avoiding a massive and destructive nuclear war. Biden and Obama failed to shutdown the nuclear program of North Korea and let North Korea get Nuclear power. Now Biden pretends that his policy will force North Korea to shut down nuclear power, without clarifying what this policy.<ref>[https://www.pri.org/stories/2020-09-17/how-would-team-biden-handle-showdown-north-korea How would Team Biden handle a showdown with North Korea?]</ref> With the rise of the Biden junta and ousting of President Trump, North Korea announced its intention to build more nuclear weapons.<ref>https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/north-korea-s-kim-threatens-build-more-nukes-bring-u-n1253625</ref>

====Iran====
In contradiction to his policy with North Korea, Biden will allow Iran, one of the world's main state sponsors of [[Islamic terrorism]], to get nuclear power. Biden also criticized President Trump for a quick act to assassinate terrorist and war criminal [[Qasem Soleimani]].<ref>[https://www.usnews.com/news/elections/articles/2020-01-14/biden-trump-flat-out-lied-about-soleimani-dangers Biden: Trump 'Flat-Out Lied' About Soleimani Dangers ..]</ref> Biden plans to rejoin to [[Iranian nuclear deal]], canceled all sanctions on the Iranian regime and let them get money to support their terrorist militias.<ref>[https://www.timesofisrael.com/biden-will-seek-to-reenter-iran-nuclear-deal-within-months-aide-says/ Biden will seek to reenter Iran nuclear deal within months, former aide says]</ref> The Mullahs' regime in Iran, like China, was one of first countries which welcomed the media declaration of the Biden junta.<ref>[https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/america-votes/iran-s-president-calls-on-biden-to-return-to-nuclear-deal-1.5179848 Iran's president calls on Biden to return to nuclear deal]</ref>

====Syria====
On the day of its seizure of power, the junta ordered the invasion of [[Syria]].<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/large-us-convoy-rolled-syria-1st-day-biden-presidency</ref> On Day 36 the junta conducted unauthorized airstrikes killing 22 people.<ref>https://www.defense.gov/Newsroom/Releases/Release/Article/2516518/us-conducts-defensive-precision-strike/</ref> A [[Bernie Sanders|Sanders]] aide, Matt Duss who reportedly was in line to for a senior State Department tweeted, "Congress has not authorized war in Syria".<ref>https://freebeacon.com/biden-administration/in-line-for-senior-job-at-state-sanders-aide-accuses-biden-of-illegal-military-action/</ref>

====Russia====
Biden portrays his policy as being more tough against Russia than [[President Trump]]'s has been,<ref>[https://thehill.com/policy/international/russia/522773-kremlin-biden-encouraging-hatred-of-russia Kremlin: Biden encouraging hatred of Russia]</ref> although this policy under the [[Obama regime]] was to let Russia expand into the Crimea and the [[Middle East]]. Under an [[Obama]] era policy, islamist groups like the [[Islamic State]] were allowed to expand in Syria but US ally [[Free Syrian Army]] was ordered not to engage Syrian or Russian troops. This allowed Russia to greatly expand influence in the region. It is likely that the [[Biden Junta]] will restore this policy.

====Cuba====
Biden planning to reestablish relations with Communist [[Cuba]]. He will also turn a blind eye on their human rights violations.<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/politics/u-s-cuba-relations-under-a-biden-administration U.S.-Cuba relations and a Biden administration]</ref>

==Controversy==
===Unity===
Biden portrays himself after the 2020 election theft as a "president" who will unite Republicans and Democrats. In contradiction to what he says, Biden has very little [[tolerance]] for people who oppose him. He called Trump supporters "Chumps",<ref>[https://nypost.com/2020/10/24/biden-rips-trump-supporters-as-chumps-at-pa-drive-in-rally/ Biden calls Trump supporters ‘chumps’ at Pennsylvania drive-in rally]</ref> "ugly folks",<ref>[https://www.westernjournal.com/biden-snaps-calls-minnesota-trump-supporters-ugly-folks/ Biden Snaps, Calls Minnesota Trump Supporters 'Ugly Folks'</ref> "racists",<ref>[https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/nov/17/biden-wants-end-to-demonization-but-wheres-his-apo/ Biden wants end to 'demonization,' but where's his apology for calling Trump and supporters racists?]</ref> "virulent people" and "dregs of society".<ref>[https://www.dailywire.com/news/joe-biden-calls-trump-supporters-dregs-society-joseph-curl Joe Biden Calls Trump Supporters ‘Virulent People,’ The ‘Dregs Of Society’]</ref> He also called a pro-Second Amendment and civilian worker in Detroit "full of sh*t" and threatened to fight him as a thug,<ref>[https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/elections-2020/biden-tells-detroit-auto-plant-worker-hes-full-of-sht-on-gun-control/ar-BB10ZJcS Biden Tells Detroit Auto Plant Worker He's 'Full of Sh*t' on Gun Control]</ref> and fat shamed a civilian voter when the voter pressed on Hunter Biden's business deals.<ref>[https://thefederalist.com/2020/10/15/flashback-joe-biden-fat-shamed-iowa-voter-when-pressed-on-hunters-business-deals/ FLASHBACK: Joe Biden Fat-Shamed Iowa Voter When Pressed On Hunter’s Business Deals]</ref> He also falsely called Republicans senators [[Ted Cruz]] and [[Josh Hawley]] "Nazis".<ref>[https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2021/01/08/biden-likens-ted-cruz-to-nazi-propagandist-goebbels-for-helping-trump-spread-big-lie-about-election-fraud/ Joe Biden likens Ted Cruz to Nazi propagandist Goebbels for helping Trump spread ‘big lie’ about election fraud]</ref> Biden also embraces many far-Left thoughts like the abortion issue, immigration policies and his refusal to denounce terrorist [[Antifa]] and [[Black Lives Matter]] acts, which makes it impossible for him to unite the division.

Reade has been trying to tell her story since it happened in 1993. It's a story about sexual assault, digital penetration which is [[rape]], retaliation, and silencing.

Then in January 2020 Reade tried to come forward again. This time she contacted Times Up Now, the sexual harassment organization. Ryan Grim at ''The Intercept'' reported the organization claimed they could not help her because Joe Biden was a candidate for federal office and supporting a case against him could jeopardize their nonprofit status.<ref>https://theintercept.com/2020/03/24/joe-biden-metoo-times-up/</ref> They also pointed out that the public relations firm that works on behalf of the Times Up Now Legal Defense Fund is SKD Knickerbocker, and SKDKnickerbocker managing director is former [[Obama]] [[White House]] Communication's director, the notorious [[Maoist]] and [[liberal]] apologist for [[mass murder]], [[Anita Dunn]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14tfnIkQ-qU</ref> Dunn is the top adviser to Joe Biden.<ref>https://legalinsurrection.com/2019/04/back-to-the-future-biden-hires-anita-dunn-former-obama-adviser-who-praised-mao/</ref>

In other words, Times Up Now, an alleged women's support group, and Anita Dunn will take political dirt on their enemies, and give a heads up to their allies. In the case of Tara Reade, Dunn used Reade to vault herself into Biden's inner orbit and a cushy job in the future Biden administration. It was no surprise when Biden appointed Dunn his chief advisor in January 2020 before the [[2020 New Hampshire Democratic primary]], since Dunn now had the goods on Biden. Given Biden's mental incapacity questions have surged as to who really is in charge. Anita Dunn, the woman who considers the greatest mass murderer the planet has ever known as her "favorite philosopher', appears to hold that trusted position.

Reade's allegations against Biden have been publicly corroborated by multiple people with whom she discussed the incident in the mid-1990s.<ref>https://www.businessinsider.com/former-neighbor-corroborates-joe-bidens-accuser-2020-4</ref> When Reade first came forward in April 2019 along with 7 other accusers, Sen.

===Disrespecting troops===
Biden has one of the worst records of politicians of being insulting to American soldiers. In September 2016 at Dhafra base in [[Saudi Arabia]], he called soldiers who refused to applaud him "stupid bastards".<ref>[https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/29/yes-joe-biden-called-u-s-troops-stupid-bastards-heres-the-video/ Yes, Joe Biden Called U.S. Troops “Stupid Bastards” — Here’s The Video]</ref> The Biden campaign confirmed the authenticity of the video, but Biden then denied the truth of that video.

===The largest voter fraud organization ever===
[[File:2020 Turnout.jpeg|left|350px|thumb|Dozens of documented examples of election shenanigans.<ref>https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/dozens-of-documented-examples-of-election-shenanigans/</ref>]]
:{{See also|Cloward-Piven strategy|Voter fraud|Ballot harvesting|2020 Voter fraud timeline}}
The probability of mail-in voter fraud creating chaos after Election Day, November 3, 2020, is very real. Some states may force residents to use mail-in ballots during the current health emergency. Voting by mail makes it easier to commit [[fraud]], intimidate voters, and destroy the protections of the secret ballot. Without the oversight of election and polling officials, mail-in ballots are the ballots most vulnerable to being altered, stolen, or forged. Fraud by duplicate voting can occur, once by absentee or mail-in ballot, and then again in person. Employees of private companies hired to contact and register voters have been known to change party affiliations of voters and forge signatures on voter registration forms, among other things.

When Democrats want to tilt elections in their favor outside the ballot box, [[Marc Elias]] of [[Perkins Coie]] is the go-to guy. Perkins Coie is the Democratic law firm, paid by [[2016 Hillary Clinton campaign|the Hillary Clinton campaign]], that hired [[Fusion GPS]] to dig up dirt on Donald Trump in 2016. They failed, but still compiled the ''[[Steele dossier]]'' full of foreign-solicited lies about Trump and Russia, which was leaked by Obama intelligence officials to try to sabotage the new president’s administration, sow doubt in his election victory, and invalidate the votes of 63 million Americans. From [[Wisconsin]] to [[Nevada]], to [[California]], Marc Elias and the Democrats pushed lawsuits disguised as “election reform” to water down important election safeguards and increase the opportunity for fraud, abuse, and corruption. In August 2020 ''[[Politico]]'' reported,
{{quotebox|[[File:Early morning ballot dumps Nov. 4, 2020.png|right|350px|thumb|Four highly anomalous ballot dumps highlighted in yellow account for the "win" in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia and represent forty-two electoral votes.<ref>https://votepatternanalysis.substack.com/p/voting-anomalies-2020</ref>]][[Coronavirus]] has turned the Democratic Party’s voter contact program, one operative said, into something more like a tech support operation than a traditional door-knocking effort.....[[Priorities USA]], the Democratic super PAC, is spending $24 million on voter mobilization, which includes vote-by-mail education. Fair Fight, a group founded by [[Stacey Abrams]], has rolled out voter protection programs in 17 states....

Meanwhile, President Donald Trump’s recent attacks on the USPS and on mail-voting is raising concern among voters, operatives say.

“We've seen such an increase from young people in terms of concern about their ballot casting,” said Jared DeLoof, the states director of [[NextGen America]], which targets younger voters. “They want to vote, they want to make sure that that vote is going to count.” [...]

Democrats believe they will also have to follow up with some voters after their ballot has been cast, in an effort to help them fix ballots that have been rejected for technical reasons. State rules vary widely on if or how voters can correct their ballots, and the time windows to do so can be short.

While Democrat campaigns and groups navigate the patchwork of state rules governing mail ballots to encourage turnout, Democrat election attorney Marc Elias is trying to change many of those rules.

This is the other half of the party’s vote-by-mail efforts: a sprawling legal effort that spans every battleground state and is costing tens of millions of dollars. Priorities USA, just one of Elias’ clients, has expanded its voting litigation budget to $32 million.
[[File:2020-11-04.jpg|left|300px|thumb|]]
“One of the features of vote by mail is that between the point that the voter cast the ballot and the point that the ballot is counted, several things have to go right,” Elias said in an interview. “One is that the ballot has to be received by the election officials in time. ... And the second is that the ballot needs to be verified and accepted.”

Elias, who was the lead attorney in former Sen. [[Al Franken]]’s (D-Minn.) 2008 recount victory and the general counsel for [[Hillary Clinton]] and [[John Kerry]]’s presidential campaigns, is pursuing what he calls “four pillars” of legal changes to election laws during coronavirus. The first, that mail ballots should include paid postage with them, has some cross-partisan support.

The other three do not, locking Elias in a wide-range legal fight with Republicans all over the country, including the Republican National Committee and its legal budget of at least $20 million. Those fights are over Elias’ push to mandate that states count ballots postmarked by Election Day but received after the fact; overhauling signature matching laws, which Elias derides as based on pseudoscience; and allowing for third parties to collect and turn in voters’ sealed absentee ballots, which Democrats call “community collection” and Republicans largely deride as “[[ballot harvesting]].”

“One thing you do is you make sure that people whose ballot is being challenged based on signature matching, that the people that are doing that have been trained, are applying uniform non-discriminatory standards. And most importantly, the voter is notified and has an opportunity to cure,” Elias said of his legal strategy. (A cure process mandates that a state contacts voters whose ballots have been rejected to give them the ability to fix — or cure — their ballot.)

Several Democrat-backed lawsuits have also pushed to expand who can cast absentee ballots. In 44 states, any voter can, at a minimum, request an absentee ballot if they choose to do so, and some states have changed that requirement as a response to the pandemic. [...]

Republicans argue that allowing for outside parties to collect and deliver ballots could lead to coercion or fraud. [...]

Depending on how close the races for the White House and battleground Senate seats are, "we could be headed for a ''[[Bush v. Gore]]'' situation in every battleground state, depending how close the results are."<ref>https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/21/democrats-vote-by-mail-plan-399671</ref>}}
The RNC and the Trump campaign pushed back against the Democrats’ assault on the integrity of elections. All across the country, Democrats tried to use coronavirus and the courts to legalize ballot harvesting, implement a nationwide mail-in ballot system, and eliminate nearly every safeguard in our elections.

One in five mail in ballots have been rejected in several 2020 elections. Nearly two-thirds (62%) say there is fraud in U.S. elections, and that fraud would concern them under Democrats’ nationwide mail-in ballot system. Americans overwhelmingly approve of the safeguards Democrats are suing to eliminate like signature matching (84%), voter identification (80%), and a ballot receipt deadline of election day (83%). Voters also oppose (67%) allowing campaign workers to collect mail-in ballots, also known as ballot harvesting.<ref>https://www.protectthevote.com/</ref>

Former Vice President Biden has repeatedly [[lied]] about having any knowledge of his son Hunter's dealings with Burisma. Hunter Biden earned in excess of $3 million while serving on Burisma's board of directors during the [[Obama administration]]. The former vice president bragged to the [[Council on Foreign Relations]] that he threatened the President of Ukraine with withholding $1.8 Billion in foreign aid and loan guarantees, which the former vice president was in charge of, unless a [[prosecutor]] investigating Burisma [[kickback]]s to the Biden family was fired.

Facebook and Twitter are no longer service carriers of electronic information, but rather now acting as publishers and broadcasters of news. Hence, their immunity from broadcasting [[libel]]ous information on their platforms - such as accusations of President Trump being a "Russian spy" for example - should be revoked. ''Yahoo News!'' reported:
{{quotebox|Instead of simply asking pertinent questions, or debunking the [New York] Post’s reporting, a media blackout was initiated. A number of well-known journalists warned colleagues and their sizable social-media audiences not to share the story. By the afternoon, Twitter had joined Facebook in suppressing the article, not only barring its users from sharing it with followers, but barring them sharing it through direct messages as well. It locked the accounts of White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, the Post, and many others for retweeting the story.

Twitter initially cited its “Hacked Materials Policy” and a “lack of authoritative reporting” as justification for censoring the Post, one of the most widely read papers in the nation. Though the reliability of the story is yet to be determined, Twitter has offered no evidence that any of the information was illegally obtained. No similar standard was applied when the New York Times published Trump’s tax returns, even though anyone who had legal access to them is likely to have broken the law in sharing them with the Times. Whatever the case, it’s all in the public record now.

A healthy democracy with a properly functioning and independent press would debate, investigate, and rigorously fact check new information. They wouldn’t work to squelch a story. It’s certainly not the job of giant tech companies who claim to function as neutral platforms to decide what news consumers can or can’t handle.

The most generous reading of Twitter and Facebook’s actions is that the rules are evolving, messy, and inadvertently unfair. A less generous — but more plausible — reading is that the tech giants single out specific stories damaging to progressives’ preferred presidential candidate.
It will backfire.

For one thing, it further damages the reputation of Big Tech. For another, it renders the industry more susceptible to a new regulatory regime already being championed by some in Congress. Mostly, however, it just makes the story they’re trying to suppress a far bigger deal.<ref>https://news.yahoo.com/twitter-facebook-shameful-repression-york-010644456.html</ref>}}
[[Glenn Greenwald]] writing in ''The Intercept'' remarked,
{{quotebox-float|"It has been astonishing to watch Democrats over the last twenty-four hours justify this censorship on the grounds that private [[corporation]]s are entitled to do whatever they want."}}

Senate lawmakers formally requested the [[Department of Justice]] to appoint a special counsel to investigate foreign payments to the Biden family:
{{quotebox-float|"These alleged revelations raise serious questions about former Vice President Joe Biden's reported participation with his son's business, dealings, specifically whether the former vice president (1) received foreign monies during his tenure in the Obama administration and (2) if former Vice President Biden allowed his son to peddle access to his father with foreign business entities.

In a recorded call made sometime after Ye Jianming, Hunter's business partner, went missing in February 2018, Hunter is heard speaking in an agitated tone,
{{quotebox|"I get calls from my father to tell me that ''[[The New York Times]]'' is calling, but my old partner, Eric, who literally has done me harm for I don’t know how long, is the one taking the calls because my father will not stop sending the calls to Eric.

Biden was placed in charge of promoting the [[Obama regime]]'s alleged [[Recovery Summer]] which never materialized.<ref>[https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/administration-kicks-recovery-summer-with-groundbreakings-and-events-across-country Administration Kicks Off "Recovery Summer" with Groundbreakings and Events Across the Country], The [[White House]], Office of the Press Secretary, Press Release, June 17, 2010. Retrieved from www.whitehouse.gov October 9, 2010.</ref> It was a failed attempt to highlight the Democrat Congress's [[American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009]], or "[[economic stimulus]] program. During the so-called 'Recovery Summer', the workforce shrank, [[unemployment]] swelled, and [[economic growth]] slowed to less than 2%. More Americans fell victim to Democrat economic policy and by the [[2010 Midterm election]] sweep no less than 27,000,000 people were unemployed or underemployed.

During 'Recovery Summer' 393,000 jobs were destroyed according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics,<ref>https://data.bls.gov/PDQ/servlet/SurveyOutputServlet?request_action=wh&graph_name=CE_cesbref1</ref> unemployment rose,<ref>http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/graph/?chart_type=bar&s[1][id]=UNRATE</ref> and [[economic growth]] slowed from 5.7% to 1.6%.<ref>http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/graph/?chart_type=bar&s[1][id]=GDPC1</ref> The number counted by the [[Department of Labor]] as unemployed at the start of Recovery Summer was 14,599,000 Americans in July 2010; by September there were 14,767,000 Americans looking for work. 168,000 more unemployed than before President Obama and Vice President Biden announced Recovery Summer had begun.<ref>https://townhall.com/columnists/RichGalen/2010/10/29/relapse_summer</ref>

Five months into the Obama regime in June 2009 [[Hunter Biden]] and Chris Heinz, son of Joe Biden and stepson of Senate Foreign Relations Committee chair [[John Kerry]] formed Rosemount Seneca. The firm partnered with the Thornton Group run by James Bulger, and the Bank of China, to form [[Bohai Harvest RST]] (BHR) in China. [[Devon Archer]] is a longtime friend of former Secretary of State [[John Kerry]] and of stepson Chris Heinz and James Bulger, the nephew of notorious Boston gangster [[Whitey Bulger]].<ref>Whitey Bulger was the head of the [[Boston]] Irish [[mafia]] who enjoyed federal protection under FBI director [[Robert Mueller]] as an informant. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2335614/Trial-Boston-mob-boss-James-Whitey-Bulger-gets-underway-family-victims-say-look-eye.html Bulger was convicted of 19 murders that occurred while under Mueller's protection; some have linked the Bulger clan to as many as 52 murders while Mueller was U.S. Attorney in Boston. https://www3.bostonglobe.com/metro/1970/01/19/one-lingering-question-for-fbi-director-robert-mueller/613uW0MR7czurRn7M4BG2J/story.html?arc404=true Whitey Bulger was murdered in prison at the age of 89 a few months before the Mueller Report was released.</ref>

The Bank of China is owned by the Chinese government and closely connected with the Chinese military and intelligence services. Biden, Heinz, and Archer transferred and sold "duel use" technology to the Chinese military which was used to create the Chinese [[drone]] program and replicate the Chinese version of the [[F-15]] fighter.<ref>https://nypost.com/2018/03/15/inside-the-shady-private-equity-firm-run-by-kerry-and-bidens-kids/</ref>

Bohai Harvest RST (BHR) invested in an app the Chinese leftwing Communist regime is using to surveil ethnic minority [[Muslim]]s in western China. Over one million Muslims living in the region are now incarcerated in Chinese [[gulag]]s.

====Biden-Ukraine scandal====

:{{See also|Biden-Ukraine scandal}}
Vice President [[Joe Biden]] oversaw the disbursement of $1 billion allocated by the U.S. to the new government of Ukraine. In 2014, Biden's son [[Hunter Biden]], was appointed to the board of directors of Burisma Holdings, the largest oil and gas company in Ukraine. Hunter Biden was hired by [[Mykola Zlochevsky]], who served as Ukraine's ecology minister in the previous administration. Hunter Biden was paid $166,000 per month. The money was split with the nephew of [[Whitey Bulger]].

Zlochevsky came under investigation by the new administration for alleged embezzlement of $5 billion while ecology minister. The prosecutor traced payments made to Hunter Biden. Vice President Biden threatened the new Ukrainian administration to withhold $1 billion in U.S. allocated funds unless the prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden was fired.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/09/world/europe/corruption-ukraine-joe-biden-son-hunter-biden-ties.html</ref>

Biden bragged about having caused the firing of the [[Ukraine]] prosecutor to a [[CFR]] conference.
[[File:Joe Biden at CFR meeting 2018 2.jpeg|left|300px|thumb|Biden at the [[Council on Foreign Relations]]: "‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money'...Well, [SOB], he got fired."<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20210218183940/https://haciendapublishing.com/articles/deep-dark-secrets-rich-famous-and-powerful-cliff-kincaid</ref>]]
U.S. banking records show Hunter Biden's firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC, received regular transfers — usually more than $166,000 a month — from Burisma from spring 2014 through fall 2015, during a period when Joe Biden was the main U.S. official dealing with Ukraine. Biden threatened Ukrainian President [[Petro Poroshenko]] that the [[Obama administration]] would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, sending Ukraine toward insolvency, if it didn't immediately fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin who was investigating his son, Hunter. Biden recounted,
{{quotebox-float|"'You’re not getting the billion'. I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money'...Well, [SOB], he got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time."<ref name="thehill.com">https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/436816-joe-bidens-2020-ukrainian-nightmare-a-closed-probe-is-revived</ref><ref>https://www.cfr.org/event/foreign-affairs-issue-launch-former-vice-president-joe-biden</ref>}}
Yuriy Lutsenko, who replaced Shokin as the prosecutor looking into Burisma, said the evidence in the Burisma case he'd like to present to [[William Barr]], particularly the vice president's intervention.

Between April 2014 and October 2015, more than $3 million was paid out by Burisma to an account linked to Biden's and [[Devon Archer]]'s Rosemont Seneca firm, according to the financial records placed in a federal court file in Manhattan in another case against Archer. The bank records show that, on most months when Burisma money flowed, two wire transfers of $83,333.33 each were sent to the Rosemont Seneca–connected account on the same day. The same Rosemont Seneca–linked account typically then paid Hunter Biden one or more payments ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 each. Ukrainian prosecutors reviewed internal company documents and wanted to interview Hunter Biden and Archer about why they had received such payments, but couldn't because of Joe Biden's intervention.

In a text message from Hunter Biden to his sister Naomi, Hunter said their father, "Pop", takes 50% of his salary.<ref>https://www.redstate.com/scotthounsell/2020/10/15/october-surprise-giuliani-reveals-texts-from-hunter-saying-biden-got-half-of-his-contracts/</ref><ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/10/rudy-giuliani-releases-text-message-hunter-biden-daughter-naomi-unlike-pop-joe-biden-wont-make-give-half-salary-video/</ref>

On September 4, 2019, former Prosecutor General [[Victor Shokin]] made a sworn affidavit outlining Joe Biden's shakedown.<ref>https://www.scribd.com/document/427618359/Shokin-Statement</ref>

====Eric Ciaramella====
[[File:Ciaramella.png|left|150px|thumb|Deep State informant Eric Ciaramella, an alleged second-hand hearsay "whistleblower."]]
[[Deep State]] informant [[Eric Ciaramella]] was assigned to the Obama [[White House]] by [[Russia collusion hoax]] mastermind [[John Brennan]]..He was detailed to the staff of [[National Security Council]] [[Susan Rice]] and Vice President [[Joe Biden]].<ref>http://www.ukrweekly.com/uwwp/wp-content/uploads/current-pdf/The_Ukrainian_Weekly_2015-47.pdf</ref> Ciaramella worked on Ukrainian issues for Biden in 2015 and 2016 during the time Biden was the "point man" handing out U.S. taxpayer cash to Ukraine.

Ciaramella worked with [[Democratic National Committee]] operative [[Alexandra Chalupa]] to dig up dirt on the [[2016 Trump campaign|Trump campaign]] during the [[2016 presidential election]]. Ciarmella invited Chalupa into the [[Obama]] White House for meetings.<ref>https://archive.usukraine.org/coalition/report-wh-press-conf-events.shtml</ref> Chalupa a key figure behind manufacturing the [[Russia collusion hoax]] and in the [[Ukrainian collusion scandal]] with the [[Atlantic Council]] and [[Crowdstrike]]. Ciaramella set the Trump [[impeachment inquiry]] in motion.

In May 2017, Ciaramella was instrumental in helping generate the “Putin fired Comey” narrative. A Ciaramella email the day after Comey's firing ended up in the media, which is reported to have allegedly called Comey “crazy, a real nut job.” Ciaramella is said to have argued that “[[President Putin]] suggested that President Trump fire Comey.” In the days after Comey's firing, this presidential action was used to further political and media calls for the appointment of a special counsel to investigate supposed ‘Russia collusion.’ Ciaramella was dismissed from the Trump White House in June 2917 and accused of illegal [[leak]]s and working against the interests of the [[United States]] government. Ciaramella returned to the CIA.

In August 2019 The Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG), [[Michael Atkinson]], referred to Ciaramella as one who has
:“some indicia of an arguable political bias … in favor of a rival political candidate"
The ICIG was severely criticized for changing the rules at the last minute and allowing a third-party "[[whistleblower]]" [[hearsay]] complaint.

====Senate investigation====
[[File:Devon Archer (far left) is pictured with Joe and Hunter Biden. (Screenshot from Twitter).jpeg|right|300px|thumb|Devon Archer (far left) is pictured with Joe and Hunter Biden. (Screenshot from Twitter)<ref>https://www.politifact.com/article/2019/oct/03/who-devon-archer-ukrainian-gas-executive-playing-g/</ref>]]
Senate investigators concluded,
{{quotebox|The records acquired by the Committees show that Hunter Biden and his family were involved in a vast financial network that connected them to foreign nationals and foreign governments across the globe. Hunter Biden and Archer, in particular, formed significant and consistent financial relationships with the corrupt oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky during their time working for Burisma and their firms made millions of dollars from that association while Joe Biden was vice president and the public face of the Obama administration’s Ukraine policy. Rosemont Seneca Thornton, an investment firm co-founded by Hunter Biden, received $3.5 million in a wire transfer from Elena Baturina, who allegedly received illegal construction contracts from her husband, the former mayor of Moscow. Moreover, Archer’s apparent receipt of money for a car from Kenges Rakishev of [[Kazakhstan]] while Vice President Biden was in Kyiv is especially concerning in light of the timing. And finally, Biden and Archer’s work with Chinese nationals connected to the Communist regime illustrate the deep financial connections that accelerated while his father was vice president and continued after he left office.

Biden and Archer found willing partners in Chinese nationals connected to the Communist regime. Their work in China began at least in 2009, with the creation of Rosemont Seneca Partners with Heinz, Secretary of State John Kerry’s stepson. Then, several years later, Biden and Archer formed [[BHR]] with Bohai Capital and received their business license approval in China shortly after Biden visited China with his father, Vice President Biden.

Hunter Biden’s connections and financial associations appear to have accelerated significantly after he associated himself with Ye Jianming, who had deep connections with the Communist regime and [[PLA]]. However, that didn’t seem to have any impact on Hunter Biden, who made millions from the relationship. Indeed, Hunter Biden and his family, to include James and Sara Biden, associated with other Chinese nationals such as Gongwen Dong. In one case, the three of them went on a $100,000 global spending spree after Gongwen Dong and Hunter Biden opened a joint account. In addition, Hunter Biden received millions of dollars over a period of years from Gongwen Dong’s companies. According to records acquired by the Committees, many of these transactions involved potential criminal financial activity.<ref>[https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/HSGAC_Finance_Report_FINAL.pdf Hunter Biden, Burisma, and Corruption: The Impact on U.S.Government Policy and Related Concerns], U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, September 23, 2020, p. 84.</ref>}}

:{{See also|Hillary Clinton email scandal|Trump-Russia collusion hoax}}
On June 15, 2016 the first Guccifer 2.0 document was created by [[Warren Flood]] at 13:38 EDT, modified by [[Феликс Эдмундович]] (Felix Edmunovich, the Russian patronymic of Felix Edmunovich Dzerzhinsky, founder of the [[KGB]] - a blatantly amateurish attempt to create Russian fingerprints) thirty minutes later at 14:08 EDT. Warren Flood was Joe Biden's former IT director at the White House. A document that Flood authored in 2008, and that was attached to one of [[John Podesta]]'s emails, was used by Guccifer 2.0 as a template into which he then copied the contents of the Trump Opposition Research, copied from this file: https://www.wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/fileid/26562/7365 (which is also attached to [https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/26562 this leaked email]). It is Flood's document that the "CONFIDENTIAL" text in the background derives from.

A document that Warren Flood authored in 2008, and was attached to one of [[John Podesta]]'s leaked emails, was used by Guccifer 2.0 as a template into which he then copied the contents of the DNC's ''Trump Opposition Research'' document. It was copied from this file: https://www.wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/fileid/26562/7365 which is also attached to [https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/26562 this leaked email]. It is Flood's document that the "CONFIDENTIAL" text in the background derives from.

Guccifer 2.0 was a [[2016 Hillary Clinton campaign]] [[false flag]] operation set up to discredit the [[DNC]] revelations at [[Wikileaks]]. Adam Carter writes, {{quotebox|"one particular group would have been particularly desperate precisely at that time, for the emergence of a narrative about Russian hackers to discredit proper leaks / justify claims that all leaks are 'probably doctored' and they will have very likely known [Warren] Flood too. That group is the Clinton Campaign. As of June 12th, [2016] they were in a position where [[Julian Assange]] had just announced WikiLeaks' upcoming release of [[Hillary Clinton email scandal|Hillary's emails]], she was still under [[FBI]] investigation, and [[Trump]] was attacking Hillary for her use of a private server with his supporters frequently chanting "lock her up!" at rallies. The campaign was in a desperate position and really needed something similar to a Russian hacker narrative and one where they would be fortunate to have a seemingly clumsy hacker that leaves lots of 'fingerprints' tainting files and bringing the reputation of leaks into question... Sure enough, 2-3 days later, Guccifer2.0 - the world's weirdest hacker - was spawned and started telling lies in an effort to attribute himself to the malware discoveries, etc."<ref>http://g-2.spac/#7</ref>}}

Holocaust cause denier

2021-01-24T10:22:40Z

Evadetyranny19:

A '''Holocaust cause denier''' is someone who (wrongly) denies that ideas fashionable in the 1930s among German politicians and intellectuals, such as [[Josef Mengele]], had any connection with the atrocities committed in the [[Holocaust]].

In essence, a '''Holocaust cause denier''' denies that the [[Holocaust]] had any ideological causes. He (wrongly) views the [[Holocaust]] like a random act of violence, such as murder.

Viacom

2021-01-19T09:13:23Z

Evadetyranny19: Updated old information, as Viacom and CBS have since remerged.

'''ViacomCBS''' is a major [[media]] [[corporation]] which owns several prominent [[United States of America|American]] [[television]] [[network]]s, among them [[Comedy Central]], as well as the movie studio Paramount Pictures and its TV unit Paramount Television. Owned by Sumner Redstone, Viacom has taken a strong stance against [[internet]] [[copyright]] infringement, and has filed suit against [[Google]] and [[YouTube]] along with several other [[class action]] [[plaintiff]]s.

The current Viacom was founded in December 2005 as a spinoff from CBS Corporation (the original Viacom), which was founded in 1971 as '''Viacom Enterprises''' after its predecessor, syndication company CBS Enterprises, was spun off by original owner (and now CBS Corporation subsidiary) [[CBS]] after the [[Federal Communications Commission]] ruled in 1970 that the then-Big Three American broadcast networks (CBS, [[ABC]] and [[NBC]]) could no longer distribute their own programs for off-network syndication or produce programs for first-run syndication due to the FCC's concerns about the Big Three monopolizing the broadcast landscape. In December 2019, CBS and Viacom remerged, forming '''ViacomCBS'''. ViacomCBS is owned by movie theatre exhibition company National Amusements.

Evadetyranny19: Fixed some typos and updated old info

'''Nickelodeon''' (often shortened to '''Nick''') is a kids TV channel that is owned by [[Viacom|ViacomCBS]]. It was founded in 1977 as Pinwheel, and later changed to Nickelodeon in 1979.

The channel is best known for its children’s show [[Spongebob Squarepants]] and the show is still going to this day and very popular.

== Bending the knee to Black Lives Matter==

In June 2020, Nickelodeon was listed as one of numerous leftist-controlled companies that have gone "woke" and now support the criminal rioters of [[Antifa]] and [[Black Lives Matter]] in the wake of the [[2020 leftist riots]]. <ref>[https://gab.com/a/posts/104311289660016704 Here Are The Companies That Support Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and Want You Dead] at Gab.com</ref>

They supported Black Lives Matter so much, they even made a propaganda special called Kid’s Race and Unity. After that special, ratings went down heavily, and people stopped trusting Nickelodeon.

The '''Islamic terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001''' occurred when [[al Qaeda]] [[Islam|Islamic extremists]] hijacked four transcontinental airliners and used them to strike targets in the [[United States]]; two aircraft destroyed the twin towers of the [[World Trade Center]] in [[New York City]]; the third crashed into a portion of the [[Pentagon]] in Washington, D.C.; and the fourth aircraft - in which the hijackers are believed to have targeted the White House or the Capitol Building - crashed into an empty field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania after passengers fought back to re-take control.

The sheer audacity of the attack and the heavy loss of life that resulted from it caused the U.S. government to declare a [[War on Terror]] with the determination to hunt down terrorists worldwide; within two months of September 11, [[Afghanistan]] was completely occupied by Coalition forces, driving the ruling Islamo-fascist [[Taliban]] from power and causing the head of [[al Qaeda]] and the man who personally approved the attacks - [[Osama bin Laden]] - to flee into hiding before being killed in [[Pakistan]] in 2011, some 10 years after the attack.

==The hijacking==
All 19 hijackers boarded the planes on the morning of September 11, having carefully chosen flights whose routes would be transcontinental. Two planes flew out of Boston's Logan Airport, one flew from Washington Dulles International Airport, and the fourth left an airport in Newark, New Jersey.

===New York City===
[[American Airlines Flight 11]] left Logan Airport around 8 AM, carrying 11 crew and 81 passengers; its destination was Los Angeles, California. [[United Airlines Flight 175]] left Logan a few minutes later, carrying 9 crew and 56 passengers, and also on a flight to Los Angeles. Both aircraft were Boeing 767-200s.

At 8:25 AM Boston air traffic controllers heard a strange voice from Flight 11: "We have some planes. Just stay quiet, and you will be OK. We are returning to the airport." The plane then headed south toward New York City; at 8:46 AM the plane crashed into the north tower of the World Trade Center between the 93rd and 99th floors. Sixteen minutes later, at 9:03 AM, Flight 175 crashed into the south tower - at a greater speed and more oblique angle - between the 77th and 85th floors.

The impact of the crashes took out any hope of getting to victims and survivors on the affected floors and the floors above; many people desperate to get away from the smoke and fire jumped to their deaths. Both towers were designed to survive the impact of a 1960s-era jet, but the Boeing 767 was larger and carried more fuel; it was determined later that the heat from the burning fuel weakened the central steel structure and supports. At 9:59 AM the south tower collapsed; the upper floors had lost support in the damaged area and fell in a chain reaction - pancake style - to the ground. At 10:28 AM the north tower fell in a similar manner. The death toll was around 2,750, including more than 300 firefighters and 100 police officers and other rescue workers.

The building at 7 World Trade Center, commonly abbreviated as WTC7, also collapsed in the attacks not long after. This collapse is frequently cited in various [[9/11 conspiracy theories|conspiracy theories]].

===Washington, D.C.===
[[American Airlines Flight 77]], a Boeing 757-200, left Dulles at 8:20 AM, carrying 6 crew and 58 passengers on a flight to Los Angeles. Forty minutes later the aircraft had turned back toward Washington; at 9:37 it crashed at high-speed into the west side of the Pentagon, killing a total of 184 people. Despite being built of reinforced concrete, the aircraft was able to penetrate to the third concentric ring of the building.

===Shanksville, Pennsylvania===
[[United Airlines Flight 93]], a Boeing 757-200, left Newark at 8:40 AM, with a destination of San Francisco. Unlike the other planes which had four hijackers each, Flight 93 had three; it also had passengers who, through onboard phone calls, learned of the previous hijackings and crashes and determined to wrest control of the aircraft back from the terrorists. Turned towards Washington, the plane ended up crashing in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania at 10:03 AM, the only one of the aircraft which failed to reach its target. Among the recorded conversations between the passengers and phone operators was the phrase "Let's roll" by Todd Beamer, made just before he set down his phone and took action with the other passengers involved; Beamer's last phrase would become a rallying cry in the coming war on Islamic terrorism.

===Ground Casualties===
The total loss of life is constantly being reevaluated to account for wrongly reported missing persons and, in some cases, occurrences of fraud. Estimates of more than 6,000 deaths were announced shortly after the attacks. The current estimate is 2,996 fatalities as a direct result of the attacks. About 500 foreign nationals from over 90 countries are believed to have died in the attack.<ref>[https://www.cnn.com/2003/US/Northeast/10/29/wtc.deaths/ "New York Reduces 9/11 Death Toll by 40"] at CNN.com, Phil Hirschkorn, 10/29/03</ref>

The Department of Defense reported the deaths of 125 people at The Pentagon. The aftermath of the World Trade Center towers collapsing created a good deal of confusion and has been the main source of discrepancies in casualty estimates. As of October 29, 2003, New York City reported 2605 deaths in the attacks, not counting the passengers and crew of the planes.<ref>[https://www.cnn.com/2003/US/Northeast/10/29/wtc.deaths/ "New York Reduces 9/11 Death Toll by 40"] at CNN.com, Phil Hirschkorn, 10/29/03</ref>

As a matter of course, the deaths of the 19 [[suicide|hijackers]] are not included in these casualty totals.

===Economic impact===
The material costs of the attacks are well in excess of one hundred billion US dollars. Factoring in stock market losses, loss of revenue in New York City, loss of jobs, impact on air travel, and heightened security, some estimate the cost approaches two trillion dollars.<ref>[http://www.iags.org/costof911.html The Cost of September 11] Institute for the Analysis of Global Security</ref>

Some estimates of the cost of executing the plan place it in the $400,000-$500,000 range, making it an extremely "profitable" operation for al-Qaeda.<ref>[http://www.9-11commission.gov/report/911Report_Exec.htm The 9/11 Commission Report]</ref>

==Role of Pakistan==
Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, a British Islamist, wired $100,000 to Mohammed Atta on orders from the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence. <ref>[https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/jul/22/usa.september11]</ref>

==The suspects==
Suspicion fell on Osama bin Laden and his [[Islam|Islamic terrorist]] al-Qaeda organization almost immediately. Known to have harbored hatred for the United States since the basing of U.S. fighters and other military personnel in Saudi Arabia during the first Gulf War, bin Laden has tried "To kill Americans and their allies — civilians and military — is an individual duty for every Muslim who can do it in any country in which it is possible to do it,",<ref>[http://awildernessvoice.com/Mohammed.html]</ref> and often succeeding. In four previous attacks, bin Laden's operatives
*killed 6 in a bomb explosion in the first attack on the World Trade Center in 1993;
*killed 19 soldiers in 1996 at a military housing complex in Saudi Arabia;
*killed more than 200 people in the simultaneous bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania;
*killed 17 sailors by putting an explosives-laden boat next to USS ''Cole'' while that destroyer was refueling in Yemen in 2000.

His personal fortune, estimated in the hundreds of millions of dollars, had enabled him to finance well-coordinated operations, including the training of the hijackers in close-quarter fighting, commandeering of aircraft, and ironically to bankroll their education in American flight schools.

==Commemorations==
[[File:Son-Of-9-11-Victim-Reads-Names-Of-Those-Killed-Wearing-‘Some-People-Did-Something’-Shirt.jpg |left|300px|thumb|[[Rep. Ilhan Elmi Omar]] was criticized by name by victim survivors at the September 11, 2019 memorial observation.]]
Following the attacks there was a strong surge of patriotism in virtually all facets of American society. The government, being aware that the most deadly attack ever on American soil could stir up animosity against the ethnic or ideological group of the perpetrators, went out of its way along with the mainstream media to separate Islam from the actions taken by its more radical adherents, misleadingly referring to it at multiple times as a "religion of peace."<ref>https://thereligionofpeace.com/</ref> While people of Middle Eastern decent and adherents of Islam were concerned at first, the overall effect of hostility towards these groups was barely noticeable. Although there were literally millions of Muslims in America out of a total population of 300 million who could have sought out reprisals, in an entire year less than 500 cases of aggression of verbal hostility were reported. Like the [[Dome of the Rock]], Muslims responded by constructing a victorious [[Ground Zero Mosque]] over conquered territory.

9/11 memorial services have been held throughout the nation every September 11 to commemorate the loss of loved ones and attack on American values.
[[File:Benghazi attack.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Libyan [[jihad]]is, supported by the [[Obama administration]], commemorated the massacre on September 11, 2012 by burning down the U.S. Consulate in Libya.<ref>https://www.amazon.com/REAL-Benghazi-Story-White-Hillary/dp/1531817130</ref> President Obama remarked, "The future does not belong to those who insult the Prophet of Islam."]]
In April 2019, [[Democrat]] Rep. Ilhan Omar speaking at a [[Council on American-Islamic Relations]] (CAIR) conference remarked the terrorist-linked organization was founded because of "some people who did something."<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrql_Sb30B8</ref> At that years' Ground Zero ceremonies the son of a murder victim said there should be no confusion on who attacked the United States and killed almost 3,000 people.

{{quotebox|I am here today to honor my 76-year-old mother, Frances, on the solemn 18th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Mom, we always miss you and love you very much. This day I also remember over 200 personal friends and co-workers that I knew that died.

'Some people did something,' said a freshman congresswoman from Minnesota to support and justify the creation of CAIR. Today I am here to respond to you, exactly who did what to whom. Madam, objectively speaking, we know who and what was done, there is no uncertainty about that. Why your confusion? On that day, 19 Islamic terrorist members of [[al Qaeda]] killed over 3,000 people and caused billions of dollars in economic damage. Is that clear?"

But as to whom? I was attacked. Your relatives and friends were attacked. Our constitutional freedoms were attacked. And our nation’s founding on [[Judeo-Christian]] principles were attacked. That’s what some people did. Got that now? We are here today, congresswoman, to tell you and ‘[[the Squad]]’ just who did what to whom. Show respect in honoring them, please.<ref>https://youtu.be/w0JFwm-waiU</ref>}}

==Consequences of the attacks on U.S. policy==
===Domestic Policy===
The attacks were a direct or indirect cause of massive changes in United States domestic policy. Most notably, the ''Homeland Security Act of 2002'' "established a [[Department of Homeland Security]], as an executive department of the United States",<ref>[https://www.whitehouse.gov/deptofhomeland/bill/hsl-bill.pdf H.R. 5005 The Homeland Security Act]</ref> a cabinet level position. One of the tools implemented by the Department is the [[Homeland Security Advisory System]], a color coded advisory system meant to "establish a comprehensive and effective means to disseminate information regarding the risk of terrorist acts to Federal, State, and local authorities and to the American people." <ref>[http://www.dhs.gov/xinfoshare/laws/ DHS Laws and Regulations] Department of Homeland Security</ref>

Another notable result of the attacks was the ''[[USA PATRIOT Act|USA PATRIOT Act of 2001]]'' ('''U'''niting and '''S'''trengthening '''A'''merica by '''P'''roviding '''A'''ppropriate '''T'''ools '''R'''equired to '''I'''ntercept and '''O'''bstruct '''T'''errorism). The act was written to expand the authority of law enforcement and the justice system in the pursuit of terrorism suspects.<ref>[http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c107:H.R.3162.ENR: ''The USA PATRIOT Act''] Library of Congress</ref>

===Foreign policy===
In response to the attacks, the United States declared a [[War on Terror]], which comprises United States military action in [[Afghanistan]] and [[Iraq]] as well as a significant increase in intelligence gathering and a new outlook on foreign relations.

American and British intelligene agencies forged a partnership with [[Muammar Gaddafi]] to spy on [[Libya]]n dissidents in the [[Western world]], in exchange for permission to use Libya as a base for [[extraordinary rendition]].<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/africa/09/03/libya.west.spies/ |title=Documents shed light on CIA, Gadhafi spy ties |first=Ben |last=Wedeman |work=CNN |date=3 September 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Libya: Gaddafi regime's US-UK spy links revealed |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14774533 |publisher=[[BBC]] |date=4 September 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Abigail Hauslohner |title=How Libya Seems to Have Helped the CIA with Rendition of Terrorism Suspects |url=http://content.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,2091653,00.html |work=Time |date=Sep 2, 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-world/files-show-mi6-cia-ties-to-libya-reports-20110904-1jrzy.html |title=Files show MI6, CIA ties to Libya: reports |work=The Sydney Morning Herald |date=4 September 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/libya/8739893/Libya-secret-dossier-reveals-Gaddafis-UK-spy-links.html |title=Libya: secret dossier reveals Gaddafi's UK spy links |work=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |first=Richard |last=Spencer |date=3 September 2011 |location=London}}</ref>

==Conspiracy theories==

{{Main|9/11 conspiracy theories}}

Many conspiracy theories have sprouted up from the events of September 11, 2001, including the "Loose Change" movies seen on YouTube.<ref>[http://www.thenation.com/doc/20061002/alterman Lying About 9/11? Easy as [[ABC]]], Eric Alterman, ''The Nation'', September 14, 2006 (October 2, 2006 issue).</ref> These movies have been comprehensively disproven by independent experts.<ref>[http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/military_law/1227842.html "Debunking The 9/11 Myths"] ''Popular Mechanics'', Mar. 2005 Cover Story</ref> Prominent endorsers of such theories include talk show host [[Rosie O'Donnell]] as well as actor [[Charlie Sheen]]. A third of the American public has bought into the idea of some sort of role by federal officials.<ref>[http://www.scrippsnews.com/911poll Third of Americans Suspect 9-11 Government Conspiracy] ''Scrippsnews'', Hargrove, Thomas, 8/01/06</ref> This view is much more common among those who get their news solely from the internet and is rare for those who read newspapers or watch the news on regular television.

In some cases, the leftists have also resorted to outright blaming the victims of 9/11 for terrorism instead of Osama Bin Laden. A notable example of this was [[Robert Fisk]], a British journalist who was on his way to America when his flight was redirected as a result of the events of the Trade Center collapse. Deducing what had happened, he then infamously wrote and submitted that very day an article that blamed the victims inside the World Trade Center buildings for causing terrorism all over the world.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20050612021521/https://www.newcriterion.com/archive/23/jun05/windschuttle.htm</ref>

'''Newgrounds''' <ref>http://www.newgrounds.com</ref> (founded on July 6, 1995 by Tom Fulp) <ref>http://www.newgrounds.com/wiki/about-newgrounds/staff</ref> is an online [[website]] where amateur computer game designers, movie-makers and audio creators, using "Flash" animation, can post their creations to an internet portal so other people can have the chance to see their work and try their [[Video game|games]]. It is often used by new game designers to test out their projects to see if they are well received. Anyone can create an account, play the games and vote on them. The better games tend to get good votes and stay in the higher rankings, while the poorly made games tend to quickly fall off the charts. Newgrounds does not censor its content, so although most games are fine for everyone, some of the material may be deemed too violent for the general public.

1993 World Trade Center bombing

[[Image:1993attack.jpg|right|thumb|Damage Done By 1993 Truck Bombing]]
The '''1993 World Trade Center bombing''' was an attack on the [[World Trade Center]] which killed 6 and injured 1,042.

==Background==
The WTC became a symbol of American capitalism and economic dominance, and therefore a vulnerable target for [[Islamic terrorism|Islamic terrorists]]. On February 26, 1993, Islamic terrorists detonated a massive truck bomb in an underground parking lot with the goal of knocking the towers over and killing its capacity of 25,000 workers. The attack severely damaged the Vista Hotel, which had to be renovated. Inside the building, people smashed windows for fresh air. The smoke left the entrance of the hotel. About 1 thousand were injured inside the building, either from smoke inhalation, or injury from the blast. About six people were killed by the attack. The terrorist's goal of destroying the towers failed, and a memorial was placed in the plaza but was destroyed during the September 11th attacks.

'''Revolutionary Organization 17 November''' was a [[communist]] [[terrorist]] group in [[Greece]]. It was one of the last survivor af a number of such murderous groups, which included the [[Baader-Meinhof Gang]] and the [[Red Brigades]]. It was founded in 1975 and is inactive since 2000. Probably the Organization acts further under the new name "[[Epanastatikos Agonas]]" (Revolutionary Struggle).

'''Afghanistan''' ([[Pashto]]/[[Dari]]: افغانستان), officially the '''Islamic Republic of Afghanistan''',<ref>http://www.president.gov.af/</ref> is a landlocked country in [[South Asia]] which borders [[Pakistan]] to the south and east and [[Iran]] to the west. Afghanistan was the scene of the defeat of the [[Soviet Union]] in the [[Soviet-Afghan war]] of 1979–1988. In the 1990s an extremist Islamic [[Taliban]] movement took control and allowed Osama bin-Laden and his Al-Qaeda to operate there and plan the [[September 11, 2001 attacks]] on the U.S. An international invasion led by the U.S. overthrew the Taliban in 2001, but they have rebuilt strongholds in the south, along the Pakistan border, and have escalated the insurgency.

Elections for a new government held in summer 2009 were clouded by serious charges of irregularity. In September 2009 the issue was whether to expand the American military presence to engage in more nation building.

In Aug. 2009, General [[Stanley A. McChrystal]], the top U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan, said the Afghan government was riddled with corruption and NATO was being undermined by tactics that alienate civilians. He called the Taliban insurgency "a muscular and sophisticated enemy" that uses modern propaganda and systematically reaches into Afghanistan's prisons to recruit members and even plan operations. He said official corruption is as much of a threat as the insurgency to the mission of the '''International Security Assistance Force''', or ISAF, as the U.S.-led NATO coalition is widely known. The weakness of state institutions, malign actions of power-brokers, widespread corruption and abuse of power by various officials, and ISAF's own errors, have given Afghans little reason to support their government," McChrystal reported.

McChrystal told Washington that he urgently needs more forces within the next year; without them, he warned, the eight-year conflict "will likely result in failure." By November no decision had been made on the urgent request.<ref>Bob Woodward, "McChrystal: More Forces or 'Mission Failure'' [https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/09/20/AR2009092002920.html ''Washington Post,'' Sept 21, 2009]</ref>

For recent American and NATO involvement see [[Afghanistan War]].

The 2009 presidential election was badly tainted by fraud. Former foreign minister Abdullah Abdullah, the main opponent of President [[Hamid Karzai]], pulled out of the runoff in November, and Karzai was declared reelected for another five-year term. His legitimacy and support was seriously weakened by the election frauds, but the U.S., [[NATO]], and the [[United Nations|UN]] have agreed to keep him in power. Since 2014 Afghanistan is ruled by [[Ashraf Ghani]].

== Weaknesses ==
The pro-Karzai Pashtuns, Tajiks, Hazara Shiites and Uzbeks that form the ruling coalition are not united, and the government they dominate is extremely weak and poverty-stricken. The Afghan government controls only 30% of the country. The country is resource-poor—there is no oil—and the only rich resource is opium poppies. There is no educated base for a competent bureaucracy, and the army is little more than an amateur collection of tribal militias. 90% of the soldiers are illiterate, making them very hard to train to modern standards.
[[File:Destroyed village Afghanistan.jpg|right|280px]]
The rebels in the southern provinces come from the Pashtuns tribes, which form 44% of the population. Only a minority of Pashtuns support the rebels. The Taliban have a significant presence in many Pashtun villages, as well as a sanctuary in neighboring Pakistan. The number of armed insurgents has grown from 3,000 in 2006 to 15,000- 20,000 in 2009. They are locals who know the hiding places in the extremely difficult terrain, and receive protection support from some Pashtun tribes.

The Afghans have a 2500-year tradition of strongly distrusting—and fighting—armed outsiders.

Since 1978, Afghanistan has experienced an unprecedented demographic catastrophe, with millions killed, wounded, or displaced. The Soviet invasion and occupation slaughtered 1,750,000 Afghans (from a range of 1.5-2 million killed).<ref>“Communism in Afghanistan,” in Stephane Courtois, ed., The Black Book of Communism,
(Harvard University Press, 1999), p725</ref><ref>http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/warstat2.htm#Afghanistan</ref> This is surely conservative when one considers all those killed by the Afghan Communists from 1978 to 1992. The subsequent civil wars (89-92 and 92-96) resulted in the deaths of another 400,000 Afghans (according to the Christian Science Monitor), with at least 50,000 killed in Kabul alone.<ref>http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/warstat2.htm#Afghanistan</ref> The Taliban seized power in 1996, and subsequently slaughtered hundreds of thousands. According to UNICEF figures, in 5 years of Taliban rule, over 600,000 Afghans died just from Taliban restrictions on access to healthcare for women (120,000 per year).<ref>New York Times, February 1, 2002</ref> The Taliban also executed tens of thousands throughout the country, and caused potentially scores of thousands of deaths through refusal to allow foreign aid and through miscellaneous "excess deaths." In all, the Taliban was likely responsible for over 750,000 deaths (150,000 per year) on top of nearly half a million in the civil war. The turmoil in Afghanistan from 1978 to 2001 killed nearly 3,000,000 Afghans, with 5,000,000 displaced.

== Geography ==
The country is known for its mountainous terrain. The huge Hindu Kush mountains form a barrier between the Northern provinces and the rest of the country. This mountain range has also divided Afghanistan int three very different geographic regions known as; The Central Highlands, The Northern Plains, and the Southwestern Plateau. The altitude, climate, and soil conditions in Afghanistan varies greatly on where in the country you are. [http://www.afghan-web.com/geography/lr.html]

== People ==
[[File:Afghan girls.jpg|right|240px]]
Afghanistan's ethnically and linguistically mixed population reflects its location astride historic trade and invasion routes leading from Central Asia into South and Southwest Asia. While population data is somewhat unreliable for Afghanistan, Pashtuns make up the largest ethnic group at 38-44% of the population, followed by Tajiks (25%), Hazaras (10%), Uzbek (6-8%), Aimaq, Turkmen, Baluch, and other small groups. Dari (Afghan Farsi) and Pashto are official languages. Dari is spoken by more than one-third of the population as a first language and serves as a lingua franca for most Afghans, though Pashto is spoken throughout the Pashtun areas of eastern and southern Afghanistan. Tajik and Turkic languages are spoken widely in the north. Smaller groups throughout the country also speak more than 70 other languages and numerous dialects.

Afghanistan is an Islamic country. An estimated 80% of the population is Sunni, following the Hanafi school of jurisprudence; the remainder of the population—and primarily the Hazara ethnic group—predominantly Shi'a. Despite attempts during the years of communist rule to secularize Afghan society, Islamic practices pervade all aspects of life. In fact, Islam served as a principal basis for expressing opposition to communism and the Soviet invasion. Islamic religious tradition and codes, together with traditional tribal and ethnic practices, have an important role in personal conduct and dispute settlement. Afghan society is largely based on kinship groups, which follow traditional customs and religious practices, though somewhat less so in urban areas.

== Government and Political Conditions ==
[[File:Inauguration of President Hamid Karzai Afghanistan.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Inauguration of former President Hamid Karzai, Dec. 7, 2004.]]
On October 9, 2004, Afghanistan held its first national democratic presidential election. More than 8 million Afghans voted, 41% of whom were women. Hamid Karzai was the winner and was inaugurated on December 7 for a five-year term as Afghanistan's first democratically elected president.

An election was held on September 18, 2005 for the “Wolesi Jirga” (lower house) of Afghanistan's new bicameral National Assembly and for the country's 34 provincial councils. Turnout for the election was about 53% of the 12.5 million registered voters. The first democratically elected National Assembly since 1969 was inaugurated on December 19, 2005.

The government's authority is weak; its ability to deliver necessary social services remains largely dependent on funds from the international donor community. Between 2001 and 2006, the United States committed over $12 billion to the reconstruction of Afghanistan. At an international donors' conference in Berlin in April 2004, donors pledged a total of $8.2 billion for Afghan reconstruction over the three-year period 2004–2007. At the end of January 2006, the international community gathered in London and renewed its political and reconstruction support for Afghanistan in the form of the Afghanistan Compact.

With international community support, including more than 40 countries participating in Operation Enduring Freedom and NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), the government's capacity to secure Afghanistan's borders to maintain internal order is increasing. Responsibility for security for all of Afghanistan was transferred to ISAF in October 2006. As of November 2006, some 40,000 Afghan National Army (ANA) soldiers had been trained along with some 60,000 police, including border and highway police. American observers give them low marks for competence and loyalty to the national government.

A program called "Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration" (DDR) has also helped to further establish the authority of the Afghan central government by disarming 63,000 tribal militia by June 2006. A follow-on program targeting illegal militias, the Disbandment of Illegal Armed Groups (DIAG), was begun in 2005, under the joint auspices of Japan and the United Nations. The DIAG program is still ongoing.

In 2014 [[Ashraf Ghani]] was elected as new president of Afghanistan.

=== Foreign Relations ===
[[File:Afghan RCD.gif|right]]
Before the Soviet invasion, Afghanistan pursued a policy of neutrality and nonalignment in its foreign relations. After the December 1979 invasion, Afghanistan's foreign policy mirrored that of the Soviet Union. Most Western countries, including the United States, maintained small diplomatic missions in Kabul during the Soviet occupation. Repeated Taliban efforts to occupy Afghanistan's seat at the UN and Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) were unsuccessful.

The fall of the Taliban in October 2001 opened a new chapter in Afghanistan's foreign relations. Afghanistan is now an active member of the international community, and has diplomatic relations with countries from around the world. In December 2002, the six nations that border Afghanistan signed a ‘Good Neighbor' Declaration, in which they pledged to respect Afghanistan's independence and territorial integrity. In 2005 Afghanistan and its South Asia neighbors held the first annual Regional Economic Cooperation Conference (RECC) promoting intra-regional relations and economic cooperation.

==== Pakistan ====
The 1978 Marxist coup strained relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Pakistan took the lead diplomatically in the United Nations, the Non-Aligned Movement, and the Organization of the Islamic Conference in opposing the Soviet occupation. During the war against the Soviet occupation, Pakistan served as the primary logistical conduit for the Afghan resistance. Pakistan initially developed close ties to the Taliban regime, and extended recognition in 1997. Pakistan dramatically altered its policy after September 11, 2001 by closing its border and downgrading its ties. Afghanistan and Pakistan are engaged in dialogue to resolve these bilateral issues.

====Iran====
Afghanistan's relations with Iran have fluctuated over the years, with periodic disputes over the water rights of the Helmand River as the main issue of contention. Following the Soviet invasion, which Iran opposed, relations deteriorated. Iran supported the cause of the Afghan resistance and provided financial and military assistance to rebel leaders who pledged loyalty to the Iranian vision of Islamic revolution. Iran still provides refuge to Afghan ex-patriots. Following the emergence of the Taliban and their harsh treatment of Afghanistan's Shi'a minority, Iran stepped up assistance to the Northern Alliance. Relations with the Taliban deteriorated further in 1998 after Taliban forces seized the Iranian consulate in Mazar-e-Sharif and executed Iranian diplomats. Since the fall of the Taliban, Afghanistan's relations with Iran have improved. Iran has been active in Afghan reconstruction efforts, particularly in the western portion of the country.

====Russia====
During the reign of the Taliban, Russia became increasingly disenchanted over Taliban support for Chechen rebels and for providing a sanctuary for terrorist groups active in Central Asia and in Russia itself, and therefore provided military assistance to the Northern Alliance. Since the fall of the Taliban, the Karzai government has improved relations with Russia, but Afghanistan's outstanding foreign debt to Russia still continues to be a source of contention.

====Tajikistan====
Afghanistan's relations with Tajikistan have been complicated by political upheaval and civil war in Tajikistan, which spurred some 100,000 Tajiks to seek refuge in Afghanistan in late 1992 and early 1993. Also disenchanted by the Taliban's harsh treatment of Afghanistan's Tajik minority, Tajikistan facilitated assistance to the Northern Alliance. The Karzai government has sought to establish closer ties with its northern neighbor in order to capitalize on the potential economic benefits of increased trade.

====UN Efforts====
The United Nations was instrumental in obtaining a negotiated Soviet withdrawal under the terms of the 1988 Geneva Accords. In the aftermath of the Accords, the United Nations assisted in the repatriation of refugees and provided humanitarian aid such as food, health care, educational programs, and support for mine-clearing operations. From 1990 to 2001, the UN worked to promote a peaceful settlement between the Afghan factions as well as provide humanitarian aid. Since October 2001, the UN has played a key role in Afghanistan through the UN Assistance Mission to Afghanistan (UNAMA), including spearheading efforts to organize the Afghan presidential elections held in October 2004 and National Assembly elections held in 2005.

===Relations with the United States===
The first extensive American contact with Afghanistan was made by Josiah Harlan, an adventurer from Pennsylvania who was an adviser in Afghan politics in the 1830s and reputedly inspired Rudyard Kipling's story "The Man Who Would be King." After the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1934, the U.S. policy of helping developing nations raise their standard of living was an important factor in maintaining and improving U.S.-Afghan ties. From 1950 to 1979, U.S. foreign assistance provided Afghanistan with more than $500 million in loans, grants, and surplus agricultural commodities to develop transportation facilities, increase agricultural production, expand the educational system, stimulate industry, and improve government administration.

In the 1950s, the U.S. declined Afghanistan's request for defense cooperation but extended an economic assistance program focused on the development of Afghanistan's physical infrastructure—roads, dams, and power plants. Later, U.S. aid shifted from infrastructure projects to technical assistance programs to help develop the skills needed to build a modern economy. The Peace Corps was active in Afghanistan between 1962 and 1979.
[[File:MI-35 helicopters Afghan Army Air Corps.jpg|thumb|270px|MI-35 helicopters Afghan Army Air Corps.]]
After the April 1978 coup, relations deteriorated. In February 1979, U.S. Ambassador Adolph "Spike" Dubs was murdered in Kabul after Afghan security forces burst in on his kidnappers. The U.S. then reduced bilateral assistance and terminated a small military training program. All remaining assistance agreements were ended after the December 1979 Soviet invasion.

Following the Soviet invasion, the United States supported diplomatic efforts to achieve a Soviet withdrawal. U.S. contributions to the refugee program in Pakistan played a major part in efforts to assist Afghans in need. This cross-border humanitarian assistance program aimed to increase Afghan self-sufficiency and help Afghans resist Soviet attempts to drive civilians out of the rebel-dominated countryside. During the period of Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, the U.S. provided about $3 billion in military and economic assistance to Afghans and the resistance movement.

The U.S. supports the emergence of a broad-based government, representative of all Afghans and actively encourages a UN role in the national reconciliation process in Afghanistan. Today, the U.S. is assisting the Afghan people as they rebuild their country and establish a representative government that contributes to regional stability, is market friendly, and respects human rights. In May 2005, President Bush and President Karzai concluded a strategic partnership agreement committing both nations to a long-term relationship.

==Economy==
In the 1930s, Afghanistan embarked on a modest economic development program. The government founded banks; introduced paper money; established a university; expanded primary, secondary, and technical schools; and sent students abroad for education.

Historically, there has been a dearth of information and reliable statistics about Afghanistan's economy. The 1979 Soviet invasion and ensuing civil war destroyed much of the country's limited infrastructure and disrupted normal patterns of economic activity. Gross domestic product had fallen substantially because of loss of labor and capital and disruption of trade and transport. Continuing internal strife hampered both domestic efforts at reconstruction as well as international aid efforts. However, Afghanistan's economy has grown at a fast pace since the 2001 fall of the Taliban, albeit from a low base. In 2004, Afghanistan's GDP grew 17%, and in 2005 Afghanistan's GDP grew approximately 10%.

In June 2006, Afghanistan and the International Monetary Fund agreed on a Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility program for 2006-2009 that focuses on maintaining macroeconomic stability, boosting growth, and reducing poverty. Afghanistan is also rebuilding its banking infrastructure, through the Da Afghanistan National Bank. Several government-owned banks are also in the process of being privatized.

===Agriculture===
The main source of income in the country is agriculture, and during its good years, Afghanistan produces enough food and food products to provide for the people, as well as to create a surplus for export. The major food crops produced are: corn, rice, barley, wheat, vegetables, fruits, and nuts. In Afghanistan, industry is also based on agriculture, and pastoral raw materials. The major industrial crops are: cotton, tobacco, madder, castor beans, and sugar beets. The Afghan economy continues to be overwhelmingly agricultural, despite the fact that only 12% of its total land area is arable and less than 6% currently is cultivated. Agricultural production is constrained by an almost total dependence on erratic winter snows and spring rains for water; irrigation is primitive. Relatively little use is made of machines, chemical fertilizer, or pesticides.

Overall agricultural production dramatically declined following severe drought as well as sustained fighting, instability in rural areas, and deteriorated infrastructure. The easing of the drought and the end of civil war produced the largest wheat harvest in 25 years during 2003. Wheat production was an estimated 58% higher than in 2002. However, the country still needed to import an estimated one million tons of wheat to meet its requirements for the 2003 year. Millions of Afghans, particularly in rural areas, remained dependent on food aid.
[[File:Afghanistan opium.jpg|thumb|left|270px|Opium cultivation in Afghanistan.]]
Opium has become a source of cash for many Afghans, especially following the breakdown in central authority after the Soviet withdrawal, and opium-derived revenues probably constituted a major source of income for the two main factions during the civil war in the 1990s. Opium is easy to cultivate and transport and offers a quick source of income for impoverished Afghans. Afghanistan produced a record opium poppy crop in 2006, supplying 91% of the world's opium. Much of Afghanistan's opium production is refined into heroin and is either consumed by a growing regional addict population or exported, primarily to Western Europe.<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/5308180.stm</ref>

Afghanistan has begun counter-narcotics programs, including the promotion of alternative livelihoods, public information campaigns, targeted eradication policies, interdiction of drug shipments, as well as law enforcement and justice reform programs. These programs were first implemented in late 2005. In June 2006, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime estimated that the Afghan Government eradicated over 15,000 hectares of opium poppy.

===Trade and Industry===
Afghanistan is endowed with natural resources, including extensive deposits of [[natural gas]], [[petroleum]], [[coal]], [[copper]], [[chromite]], [[talc]], [[barite]]s, [[sulfur]], [[lead]], [[zinc]], [[iron ore]], [[salt]], and precious and semiprecious stones. Unfortunately, ongoing instability in certain areas of the country, remote and rugged terrain, and inadequate infrastructure and transportation network have made mining these resources difficult, and there have been few serious attempts to further explore or exploit them. Coal deposits have been widely exploited.

The most important resource has been natural gas, first tapped in 1967. At their peak during the 1980s, natural gas sales accounted for $300 million a year in export revenues (56% of the total). Ninety percent of these exports went to the Soviet Union to pay for imports and debts. However, during the withdrawal of Soviet troops in 1989, Afghanistan's natural gas fields were capped to prevent sabotage by the mujahidin. Restoration of gas production has been hampered by internal strife and the disruption of traditional trading relationships following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Trade in smuggled goods into Pakistan once constituted a major source of revenue for Afghan regimes, including the Taliban, and still figures as an important element in the Afghan economy, although efforts are underway to formalize this trade.

===Transportation===
In the 1960s, the United States helped build a highway connecting Afghanistan's two largest cities. It began in Kabul and wound its way through five of the country's core provinces—skirting scores of isolated and otherwise inaccessible villages; passing through the ancient market city of Ghazni; descending through Qalat; and eventually reaching Kandahar, founded by Alexander the Great. More than 35% of the country's population lives within 50 kilometers of this highway, called, appropriately, modern Afghanistan's lifeline. In 1978, the Soviet Union invaded. By the time its forces withdrew more than a decade later, more than 1 million Afghans had been killed and 5 million had fled. Civil war followed. The Taliban emerged, controlling all but the remote, northern regions. Afghanistan was terrorized by this group, which was dogmatically opposed to progress and democracy. More than two decades of war had left the Kabul-Kandahar highway devastated, like much of the country's infrastructure. Little could move along the lifeline that had provided so many Afghans with their means of livelihood and their access to healthcare, education, markets, and places of worship.

'''Reviving the Road''': Restoration of the highway has been an overriding priority of President Hamid Karzai. It is crucial to extending the influence of the new government. Without the highway link, Afghanistan's civil society and economy would remain moribund and prey to divisive forces. The economic development that the highway makes possible will help guarantee the unity and long-term security of the Afghan people. The restored highway is a visually impressive achievement whose symbolic importance should not be underestimated. It marks a palpable transition from the recent past and represents an important building block for the future. Recently, an official in Herat likened the ring road to veins and arteries that nourish and bring life to the "heart" of Kabul and the body of the country. The highway will not end in Kandahar: there are plans to complete the circuit, extending it to Herat and then arcing it back through Mazar-e Sharif to Kabul. The route is sometimes referred to as the Ring Road. As of December 2006, three-quarters of the Ring Road had been funded, with plans to be completed in 2007.

Landlocked Afghanistan has no functioning railways, but the Amu Darya (Oxus) River, which forms part of Afghanistan's border with Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan, has barge traffic. During their occupation of the country, the Soviets completed a bridge across the Amu Darya. The United States, in partnership with Norway, has agreed to reconstruct this bridge, which will stretch more than 650 meters over the Amu Darya/Pyandzh River between Afghanistan and Tajikistan, near Pyanji Poyon (Tajikistan) and Shir Khan Bandar (Afghanistan). The bridge is set for completion in 2007.

Afghanistan's national airline, Ariana, operates domestic and international routes, including flights to New Delhi, Islamabad, Dubai, Moscow, Istanbul, Tehran, and Frankfurt. A private carrier, Kam Air, commenced domestic operations in November 2003. Many sections of Afghanistan's highway and regional road system are undergoing significant reconstruction. The U.S. (with assistance from Japan) completed building a highway linking Kabul to the southern regional capital, Kandahar. Construction is soon to begin on the next phase of highway reconstruction between Kandahar and the western city of Herat. The Asian Development Bank is also active in road development projects, mainly in the border areas with Pakistan.

==Humanitarian Relief==
Many nations have assisted in a great variety of humanitarian and development projects all across Afghanistan since the fall of the Taliban in 2001. The United Nations, World Bank, Asian Development Bank and other international agencies have also given aid. Schools, clinics, water systems, agriculture, sanitation, government buildings and roads are being repaired or built.

===De-mining===
Afghanistan is one of the most heavily mined countries in the world; mine-related injuries number up to 100 per month, and an estimated 200,000 Afghans have been disabled by landmine/unexploded ordinances (UXO) accidents. As of March 2005 the United Nations Mine Action Program for Afghanistan had approximately 8,000 Afghan personnel, 700 demobilized soldiers, 22 international staff, and several NGOs deployed in Afghanistan. The goal of the program is to remove the impact of mines from all high-impact areas by 2007 and to make Afghanistan mine-free by 2012. Between January 2003 and March 2005 a total of 2,354,244 mines and pieces of UXOs were destroyed. Training programs are also being used to educate the public about the threat and dangers of land mines. The number of mine victims was reduced from approximately 150 a month in 2002 to less than 100 a month in 2004.

===Refugees and Internally Displaced People===
Afghanistan has had the largest refugee repatriation in the world in the last 30 years. The return of refugees is guided by the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation (MORR) and supported by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), International Organization of Migration (IOM), United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the World Food Program (WFP), the World Health Organization (WHO) and a number of other national and international NGOs. As of December 2006, approximately 3 million Afghans remained in neighboring countries. The U.S. provided more than $350 million to support Afghan refugees, returnees, and other conflict victims between September 2001 and March 2006. Since the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan, the country's non-opium economy has grown significantly and has allowed approximately 3 million people to return home.<ref>http://www.control-risks.com/default.aspx?page=605</ref>

===Health===
In response to a strategy outlined by the Ministry of Health, the international community is supporting the government in rebuilding the primary health-care system. Tuberculosis remains a serious public health problem in Afghanistan. Since this strategy was outlined, the Afghan Government with support from the World Health Organization (WHO) has established 162 health facilities in 141 districts across the country. The treatment success rate in 2002 was 86%. WHO is also assisting the Ministry of Health and local health authorities to combat malaria where the disease is widespread. Through this project, 600,000 individuals are receiving full treatment for malaria every year. In addition 750,000 individuals are protected from malaria by sleeping under special nets provided under the project.

===Education===
There were 45,000 children enrolled in school in 1993, 19% were girls. The latest official statistics show there are now 64,000 children in school, one third are girls. In addition 29% of the teachers in the province are women, compared with 15% in 1993. Effort is being made to ensure that teachers receive salaries on time and increasing the attendance of girls in school. The total enrollment rate for Afghan children between 7 and 13 years of age has increased to 54% (67% for boys and 37% for girls). A number of factors such as distance to schools, poor facilities and lack of separate schooling for boys and girls continue to be challenges to higher enrollment.

==History==
[[File:Friday - Mosque Afghanistan.jpg|thumb|260px|Friday-Mosque.]]
Afghanistan, often called the crossroads of Central Asia, has had a turbulent history. In 328 BC, Alexander the Great entered the territory of present-day Afghanistan, then part of the Persian Empire, to capture Bactria (present-day Balkh). Invasions by the Scythians, White Huns, and Turks followed in succeeding centuries. In AD 642, Arabs invaded the entire region and introduced Islam.

Arab rule gave way to the Persians, who controlled the area until conquered by the Turkic Ghaznavids in 998. Mahmud of Ghazni (998-1030) consolidated the conquests of his predecessors and turned Ghazni into a great cultural center as well as a base for frequent forays into India. Following Mahmud's short-lived dynasty, various princes attempted to rule sections of the country until the destructive Mongol invasion of 1219 led by Genghis Khan.

Following Genghis Khan's death in 1227, a succession of petty chiefs and princes struggled for supremacy until late in the 14th century, when one of his descendants, Tamerlane, incorporated Afghanistan into his own vast Asian empire. Babur, a descendant of Tamerlane and the founder of India's Moghul dynasty at the beginning of the 16th century, made Kabul the capital of an Afghan principality.

In 1747, Ahmad Shah Durrani, the founder of what is known today as Afghanistan, established his rule. A Pashtun, Durrani was elected king by a tribal council after the assassination of the Persian ruler Nadir Shah at Khabushan in the same year. Throughout his reign, Durrani consolidated chieftainships, petty principalities, and fragmented provinces into one country. His rule extended from Mashad in the west to Kashmir and Delhi in the east, and from the Amu Darya (Oxus) River in the north to the Arabian Sea in the south.

===European Influence===
During the 19th century, collision between the expanding British Empire in the subcontinent and czarist Russia significantly influenced Afghanistan in what was termed "The Great Game." British concern over Russian advances in Central Asia and growing influence in Persia culminated in two Anglo-Afghan wars. The first (1839–42) resulted not only in the destruction of a British army, but is remembered today as an example of the ferocity of Afghan resistance to foreign rule. The second Anglo-Afghan war (1878–80) was sparked by Amir Sher Ali's refusal to accept a British mission in Kabul. This conflict brought Amir Abdur Rahman to the Afghan throne. During his reign (1880-1901), the British and Russians officially established the boundaries of what would become modern Afghanistan through the demarcation of the Durand Line. The British retained effective control over Kabul's foreign affairs.

Afghanistan remained neutral during World War I, despite German encouragement of anti-British feelings and Afghan rebellion along the borders of British India. The Afghan king's policy of neutrality was not universally popular within the country, however.

Habibullah, Abdur Rahman's son and successor, was assassinated in 1919, possibly by family members opposed to British influence. His third son, Amanullah, regained control of Afghanistan's foreign policy after launching the third Anglo-Afghan war with an attack on India in the same year. During the ensuing conflict, the war-weary British relinquished their control over Afghan foreign affairs by signing the Treaty of Rawalpindi in August 1919. In commemoration of this event, Afghans celebrate August 19 as their Independence Day.

===Reform and Reaction===
King Amanullah (1919–29) moved to end his country's traditional isolation in the years following the third Anglo-Afghan war. He established diplomatic relations with most major countries and, following a 1927 tour of Europe and Turkey—during which he noted the modernization and secularization advanced by Atatürk—introduced several reforms intended to modernize Afghanistan. Some of these, such as the abolition of the traditional Muslim veil for women and the opening of a number of co-educational schools, quickly alienated many tribal and religious leaders. Faced with overwhelming armed opposition, Amanullah was forced to abdicate in January 1929 after Kabul fell to forces led by Bacha-i-Saqao, a Tajik brigand. Prince Nadir Khan, a cousin of Amanullah's, in turn defeated Bacha-i-Saqao in October of the same year and, with considerable Pashtun tribal support, was declared King Nadir Shah. Four years later, however, he was assassinated in a revenge killing by a Kabul student.

Mohammad Zahir Shah, Nadir Khan's 19-year-old son, succeeded to the throne and reigned from 1933 to 1973. In 1964, King Zahir Shah promulgated a liberal constitution providing for a two-chamber legislature to which the king appointed one-third of the deputies. The people elected another third, and the remainder were selected indirectly by provincial assemblies. Although Zahir's "experiment in democracy" produced few lasting reforms, it permitted the growth of unofficial extremist parties on both the left and the right. These included the communist People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA), which had close ideological ties to the Soviet Union. In 1967, the PDPA split into two major rival factions: the Khalq (Masses) faction headed by Nur Muhammad Taraki and Hafizullah Amin and supported by elements within the military, and the Parcham (Banner) faction led by Babrak Karmal. The split reflected ethnic, class, and ideological divisions within Afghan society.

Zahir's cousin, Sardar Mohammad Daoud, served as his Prime Minister from 1953 to 1963. During his tenure as Prime Minister, Daoud solicited military and economic assistance from both Washington and Moscow and introduced controversial social policies of a reformist nature. Daoud's alleged support for the creation of a Pashtun state in the Pakistan-Afghan border area heightened tensions with Pakistan and eventually resulted in Daoud's dismissal in March 1963.

===Daoud's Republic (1973-78) and the April 1978 Coup===
Amid charges of corruption and malfeasance against the royal family and poor economic conditions created by the severe 1971-72 drought, former Prime Minister Daoud seized power in a military coup on July 17, 1973. Zahir Shah fled the country, eventually finding refuge in Italy. Daoud abolished the monarchy, abrogated the 1964 constitution, and declared Afghanistan a republic with himself as its first President and Prime Minister. His attempts to carry out badly needed economic and social reforms met with little success, and the new constitution promulgated in February 1977 failed to quell chronic political instability.

Seeking to exploit more effectively mounting popular disaffection, the PDPA reunified with Moscow's support. On April 27, 1978, the PDPA initiated a bloody coup, which resulted in the overthrow and murder of Daoud and most of his family. Nur Muhammad Taraki, Secretary General of the PDPA, became President of the Revolutionary Council and Prime Minister of the newly established Democratic Republic of Afghanistan.
===Afghanistan War===
see also [[Afghanistan War]]

Opposition to the Marxist government emerged almost immediately. During its first 18 months of rule, the PDPA brutally imposed a Marxist-style "reform" program, which ran counter to deeply rooted Afghan traditions. Decrees forcing changes in marriage customs and pushing through an ill-conceived land reform were particularly misunderstood by virtually all Afghans. In addition, thousands of members of the traditional elite, the religious establishment, and the intelligentsia were imprisoned, tortured, or murdered. Conflicts within the PDPA also surfaced early and resulted in exiles, purges, imprisonments, and executions.

By the summer of 1978, a revolt began in the Nuristan region of eastern Afghanistan and quickly spread into a countrywide insurgency. In September 1979, Hafizullah Amin, who had earlier been Prime Minister and Minister of Defense, seized power from Taraki after a palace shootout. Over the next 2 months, instability plagued Amin's regime as he moved against perceived enemies in the PDPA. By December, party morale was crumbling, and the insurgency was growing.

===The Soviet Invasion===
The Soviet Union moved quickly to take advantage of the April 1978 coup. In December 1978, Moscow signed a new bilateral treaty of friendship and cooperation with Afghanistan, and the Soviet military assistance program increased significantly. The regime's survival increasingly was dependent upon Soviet military equipment and advisers as the insurgency spread and the Afghan army began to collapse.

By October 1979, however, relations between Afghanistan and the Soviet Union were tense as Hafizullah Amin refused to take Soviet advice on how to stabilize and consolidate his government. Faced with a deteriorating security situation, on December 24, 1979, large numbers of Soviet airborne forces, joining thousands of Soviet troops already on the ground, began to land in Kabul under the pretext of a field exercise. On December 26, these invasion forces killed Hafizullah Amin and installed Babrak Karmal, exiled leader of the Parcham faction, bringing him back from Czechoslovakia and making him Prime Minister. Massive Soviet ground forces invaded from the north on December 27.

Following the invasion, the Karmal regime, although backed by an expeditionary force that grew as large as 120,000 Soviet troops, was unable to establish authority outside Kabul. As much as 80% of the countryside, including parts of Herat and Kandahar, eluded effective government control. An overwhelming majority of Afghans opposed the communist regime, either actively or passively. Afghan freedom fighters (mujahidin) made it almost impossible for the regime to maintain a system of local government outside major urban centers. Poorly armed at first, in 1984 the mujahidin began receiving substantial assistance in the form of weapons and training from the U.S. and other outside powers.

In May 1985, the seven principal Peshawar-based guerrilla organizations formed an alliance to coordinate their political and military operations against the Soviet occupation. Late in 1985, the mujahidin were active in and around Kabul, launching rocket attacks and conducting operations against the communist government. The failure of the Soviet Union to win over a significant number of Afghan collaborators or to rebuild a viable Afghan army forced it to bear an increasing responsibility for fighting the resistance and for civilian administration.

<blockquote>
In the mid-nineteen-eighties, when [[Mikhail Gorbachev]] came to power in the Soviet Union, he inherited a deteriorating war in Afghanistan. He wanted out but he was boxed in by hardliners in his Politburo and military. Gradually, however, he constructed an exit strategy from Afghanistan. [http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/stevecoll/2009/09/gorbachev-was-right.html]
</blockquote>

Soviet and popular displeasure with the Karmal regime led to its demise in May 1986. Karmal was replaced by Muhammad Najibullah, former chief of the Afghan secret police (KHAD). Najibullah had established a reputation for brutal efficiency during his tenure as KHAD chief. As Prime Minister, Najibullah was ineffective and highly dependent on Soviet support. Undercut by deep-seated divisions within the PDPA, regime efforts to broaden its base of support proved futile.

===The Geneva Accords and Their Aftermath===
By the mid-1980s, the tenacious Afghan resistance movement—aided by the United States, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and others—was exacting a high price from the Soviets, both militarily within Afghanistan and by souring the U.S.S.R.'s relations with much of the Western and Islamic world. Informal negotiations for a Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan had been underway since 1982. In 1988, the Governments of Pakistan and Afghanistan, with the United States and Soviet Union serving as guarantors, signed an agreement settling the major differences between them. The agreement, known as the Geneva accords, included five major documents, which, among other things, called for U.S. and Soviet noninterference in the internal affairs of Pakistan and Afghanistan, the right of refugees to return to Afghanistan without fear of persecution or harassment, and, most importantly, a timetable that ensured full Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan by February 15, 1989. About 14,500 Soviet and an estimated one million Afghan lives were lost between 1979 and the Soviet withdrawal in 1989.

Significantly, the mujahidin were party neither to the negotiations nor to the 1988 agreement and, consequently, refused to accept the terms of the accords. As a result, the civil war continued after the Soviet withdrawal, which was completed in February 1989. Najibullah's regime, though failing to win popular support, territory, or international recognition, was able to remain in power until 1992 but collapsed after the defection of Gen. Abdul Rashid Dostam and his Uzbek militia in March. However, when the victorious mujahidin entered Kabul to assume control over the city and the central government, a new round of internecine fighting began between the various militias, which had coexisted only uneasily during the Soviet occupation. With the demise of their common enemy, the militias' ethnic, clan, religious, and personality differences surfaced, and the civil war continued.

Seeking to resolve these differences, the leaders of the Peshawar-based mujahidin groups established an interim Islamic Jihad Council in mid-April 1992 to assume power in Kabul. Moderate leader Prof. Sibghatullah Mojaddedi was to chair the council for 2 months, after which a 10-member leadership council composed of mujahidin leaders and presided over by the head of the Jamiat-i-Islami, Prof. Burhanuddin Rabbani, was to be set up for 4 months. During this 6-month period, a Loya Jirga, or grand council of Afghan elders and notables, would convene and designate an interim administration which would hold power up to a year, pending elections.

But in May 1992, Rabbani prematurely formed the leadership council, undermining Mojaddedi's fragile authority. In June, Mojaddedi surrendered power to the Leadership Council, which then elected Rabbani as president. Nonetheless, heavy fighting broke out in August 1992 in Kabul between forces loyal to President Rabbani and rival factions, particularly those who supported Gulbuddin Hekmatyar's Hezb-i-Islami. After Rabbani extended his tenure in December 1992, fighting in the capital flared up in January and February 1993. The Islamabad Accord, signed in March 1993, which appointed Hekmatyar as Prime Minister, failed to have a lasting effect. A follow-up agreement, the Jalalabad Accord, called for the militias to be disarmed but was never fully implemented. Through 1993, Hekmatyar's Hezb-i-Islami forces, allied with the Shi'a Hezb-i-Wahdat militia, clashed intermittently with Rabbani and Masood's Jamiat forces. Cooperating with Jamiat were militants of Sayyaf's Ittehad-i-Islami and, periodically, troops loyal to ethnic Uzbek strongman Abdul Rashid Dostam. On January 1, 1994, Dostam switched sides, precipitating large-scale fighting in Kabul and in northern provinces, which caused thousands of civilian casualties in Kabul and elsewhere and created a new wave of displaced persons and refugees. The country sank even further into anarchy, forces loyal to Rabbani and Masood, both ethnic Tajiks, controlled Kabul and much of the northeast, while local warlords exerted power over the rest of the country.

===The Taliban===
The Taliban had risen to power in the mid '90s in reaction to the anarchy and warlordism that arose after the withdrawal of Soviet forces. Many Taliban had been educated in madrassas in Pakistan and were largely from rural southern Pashtun backgrounds. In 1994, the Taliban developed enough strength to capture the city of Kandahar from a local warlord and proceeded to expand its control throughout Afghanistan, occupying Kabul in September 1996. By the end of 1998, the Taliban occupied about 90% of the country, limiting the opposition largely to a small mostly Tajik corner in the northeast and the Panjshir valley.

The Taliban sought to impose an extreme interpretation of Islam—based upon the rural Pashtun tribal code—on the entire country and committed massive human rights violations, particularly directed against women and girls. The Taliban also committed serious atrocities against minority populations, particularly the Shi'a Hazara ethnic group, and killed noncombatants in several well-documented instances. In March 2001, as part of a drive against relics of Afghanistan's pre-Islamic past, the Taliban destroyed two Buddha statues carved into cliff faces outside of the city of Bamiyan.

From the mid-1990s the Taliban provided sanctuary to Osama bin Laden, a Saudi national who had fought with the mujahideen resistance against the Soviets, and provide a base for his and other terrorist organizations. Bin Laden provided both financial and political support to the Taliban. Bin Laden and his Al-Qaida group were charged with the bombing of the U.S. Embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam in 1998, and in August 1998 the United States launched a cruise missile attack against bin Laden's terrorist camp in southeastern Afghanistan. Bin Laden and Al-Qaida have acknowledged their responsibility for the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks against the United States.
[[Image:Afghanistan violence.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Journalist Jenny Hoff, 2007.]]
Following the Taliban's repeated refusal to expel bin Laden and his group and end its support for international terrorism, the U.S. and its partners in the anti-terrorist coalition began a military campaign on October 7, 2001, targeting terrorist facilities and various Taliban military and political assets within Afghanistan. Under pressure from U.S. military and anti-Taliban forces, the Taliban disintegrated rapidly, and Kabul fell on November 13, 2001.

Afghan factions opposed to the Taliban met at a United Nations-sponsored conference in Bonn, Germany in December 2001 and agreed to restore stability and governance to Afghanistan—creating an interim government and establishing a process to move toward a permanent government. Under the "Bonn Agreement," an Afghan Interim Authority was formed and took office in Kabul on December 22, 2001 with Hamid Karzai as Chairman. The Interim Authority held power for approximately 6 months while preparing for a nationwide "Loya Jirga" (Grand Council) in mid-June 2002 that decided on the structure of a Transitional Authority. The Transitional Authority, headed by President Hamid Karzai, renamed the government as the Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan (TISA). One of the TISA's primary achievements was the drafting of a constitution that was ratified by a Constitutional Loya Jirga on January 4, 2004.

'''Afghanistan''' ([[Pashto]]/[[Dari]]: افغانستان), officially the '''Islamic Republic of Afghanistan''',<ref>http://www.president.gov.af/</ref> is a landlocked country in [[South Asia]] which borders [[Pakistan]] to the south and east and [[Iran]] to the west. Afghanistan was the scene of the defeat of the [[Soviet Union]] in the [[Soviet-Afghan war]] of 1979–1988. In the 1990s an extremist Islamic [[Taliban]] movement took control and allowed Osama bin-Laden and his Al-Qaeda to operate there and plan the [[September 11, 2001 attacks]] on the U.S. An international invasion led by the U.S. overthrew the Taliban in 2001, but they have rebuilt strongholds in the south, along the Pakistan border, and have escalated the insurgency.

Elections for a new government held in summer 2009 were clouded by serious charges of irregularity. In September 2009 the issue was whether to expand the American military presence to engage in more nation building.

In Aug. 2009, General [[Stanley A. McChrystal]], the top U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan, said the Afghan government was riddled with corruption and NATO was being undermined by tactics that alienate civilians. He called the Taliban insurgency "a muscular and sophisticated enemy" that uses modern propaganda and systematically reaches into Afghanistan's prisons to recruit members and even plan operations. He said official corruption is as much of a threat as the insurgency to the mission of the '''International Security Assistance Force''', or ISAF, as the U.S.-led NATO coalition is widely known. The weakness of state institutions, malign actions of power-brokers, widespread corruption and abuse of power by various officials, and ISAF's own errors, have given Afghans little reason to support their government," McChrystal reported.

McChrystal told Washington that he urgently needs more forces within the next year; without them, he warned, the eight-year conflict "will likely result in failure." By November no decision had been made on the urgent request.<ref>Bob Woodward, "McChrystal: More Forces or 'Mission Failure'' [https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/09/20/AR2009092002920.html ''Washington Post,'' Sept 21, 2009]</ref>

For recent American and NATO involvement see [[Afghanistan War]].

The 2009 presidential election was badly tainted by fraud. Former foreign minister Abdullah Abdullah, the main opponent of President [[Hamid Karzai]], pulled out of the runoff in November, and Karzai was declared reelected for another five-year term. His legitimacy and support was seriously weakened by the election frauds, but the U.S., [[NATO]], and the [[United Nations|UN]] have agreed to keep him in power. Since 2014 Afghanistan is ruled by [[Ashraf Ghani]].

== Weaknesses ==
The pro-Karzai Pashtuns, Tajiks, Hazara Shiites and Uzbeks that form the ruling coalition are not united, and the government they dominate is extremely weak and poverty-stricken. The Afghan government controls only 30% of the country. The country is resource-poor—there is no oil—and the only rich resource is opium poppies. There is no educated base for a competent bureaucracy, and the army is little more than an amateur collection of tribal militias. 90% of the soldiers are illiterate, making them very hard to train to modern standards.
[[File:Destroyed village Afghanistan.jpg|right|280px]]
The rebels in the southern provinces come from the Pashtuns tribes, which form 44% of the population. Only a minority of Pashtuns support the rebels. The Taliban have a significant presence in many Pashtun villages, as well as a sanctuary in neighboring Pakistan. The number of armed insurgents has grown from 3,000 in 2006 to 15,000- 20,000 in 2009. They are locals who know the hiding places in the extremely difficult terrain, and receive protection support from some Pashtun tribes.

The Afghans have a 2500-year tradition of strongly distrusting—and fighting—armed outsiders.

Since 1978, Afghanistan has experienced an unprecedented demographic catastrophe, with millions killed, wounded, or displaced. The Soviet invasion and occupation slaughtered 1,750,000 Afghans (from a range of 1.5-2 million killed).<ref>“Communism in Afghanistan,” in Stephane Courtois, ed., The Black Book of Communism,
(Harvard University Press, 1999), p725</ref><ref>http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/warstat2.htm#Afghanistan</ref> This is surely conservative when one considers all those killed by the Afghan Communists from 1978 to 1992. The subsequent civil wars (89-92 and 92-96) resulted in the deaths of another 400,000 Afghans (according to the Christian Science Monitor), with at least 50,000 killed in Kabul alone.<ref>http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/warstat2.htm#Afghanistan</ref> The Taliban seized power in 1996, and subsequently slaughtered hundreds of thousands. According to UNICEF figures, in 5 years of Taliban rule, over 600,000 Afghans died just from Taliban restrictions on access to healthcare for women (120,000 per year).<ref>New York Times, February 1, 2002</ref> The Taliban also executed tens of thousands throughout the country, and caused potentially scores of thousands of deaths through refusal to allow foreign aid and through miscellaneous "excess deaths." In all, the Taliban was likely responsible for over 750,000 deaths (150,000 per year) on top of nearly half a million in the civil war. The turmoil in Afghanistan from 1978 to 2001 killed nearly 3,000,000 Afghans, with 5,000,000 displaced.

== Geography ==
The country is known for its mountainous terrain. The huge Hindu Kush mountains form a barrier between the Northern provinces and the rest of the country. This mountain range has also divided Afghanistan int three very different geographic regions known as; The Central Highlands, The Northern Plains, and the Southwestern Plateau. The altitude, climate, and soil conditions in Afghanistan varies greatly on where in the country you are. [http://www.afghan-web.com/geography/lr.html]

== People ==
[[File:Afghan girls.jpg|right|240px]]
Afghanistan's ethnically and linguistically mixed population reflects its location astride historic trade and invasion routes leading from Central Asia into South and Southwest Asia. While population data is somewhat unreliable for Afghanistan, Pashtuns make up the largest ethnic group at 38-44% of the population, followed by Tajiks (25%), Hazaras (10%), Uzbek (6-8%), Aimaq, Turkmen, Baluch, and other small groups. Dari (Afghan Farsi) and Pashto are official languages. Dari is spoken by more than one-third of the population as a first language and serves as a lingua franca for most Afghans, though Pashto is spoken throughout the Pashtun areas of eastern and southern Afghanistan. Tajik and Turkic languages are spoken widely in the north. Smaller groups throughout the country also speak more than 70 other languages and numerous dialects.

Afghanistan is an Islamic country. An estimated 80% of the population is Sunni, following the Hanafi school of jurisprudence; the remainder of the population—and primarily the Hazara ethnic group—predominantly Shi'a. Despite attempts during the years of communist rule to secularize Afghan society, Islamic practices pervade all aspects of life. In fact, Islam served as a principal basis for expressing opposition to communism and the Soviet invasion. Islamic religious tradition and codes, together with traditional tribal and ethnic practices, have an important role in personal conduct and dispute settlement. Afghan society is largely based on kinship groups, which follow traditional customs and religious practices, though somewhat less so in urban areas.

== Government and Political Conditions ==
[[File:Inauguration of President Hamid Karzai Afghanistan.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Inauguration of former President Hamid Karzai, Dec. 7, 2004.]]
On October 9, 2004, Afghanistan held its first national democratic presidential election. More than 8 million Afghans voted, 41% of whom were women. Hamid Karzai was the winner and was inaugurated on December 7 for a five-year term as Afghanistan's first democratically elected president.

An election was held on September 18, 2005 for the “Wolesi Jirga” (lower house) of Afghanistan's new bicameral National Assembly and for the country's 34 provincial councils. Turnout for the election was about 53% of the 12.5 million registered voters. The first democratically elected National Assembly since 1969 was inaugurated on December 19, 2005.

The government's authority is weak; its ability to deliver necessary social services remains largely dependent on funds from the international donor community. Between 2001 and 2006, the United States committed over $12 billion to the reconstruction of Afghanistan. At an international donors' conference in Berlin in April 2004, donors pledged a total of $8.2 billion for Afghan reconstruction over the three-year period 2004–2007. At the end of January 2006, the international community gathered in London and renewed its political and reconstruction support for Afghanistan in the form of the Afghanistan Compact.

With international community support, including more than 40 countries participating in Operation Enduring Freedom and NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), the government's capacity to secure Afghanistan's borders to maintain internal order is increasing. Responsibility for security for all of Afghanistan was transferred to ISAF in October 2006. As of November 2006, some 40,000 Afghan National Army (ANA) soldiers had been trained along with some 60,000 police, including border and highway police. American observers give them low marks for competence and loyalty to the national government.

A program called "Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration" (DDR) has also helped to further establish the authority of the Afghan central government by disarming 63,000 tribal militia by June 2006. A follow-on program targeting illegal militias, the Disbandment of Illegal Armed Groups (DIAG), was begun in 2005, under the joint auspices of Japan and the United Nations. The DIAG program is still ongoing.

In 2014 [[Ashraf Ghani]] was elected as new president of Afghanistan.

=== Foreign Relations ===
[[File:Afghan RCD.gif|right]]
Before the Soviet invasion, Afghanistan pursued a policy of neutrality and nonalignment in its foreign relations. After the December 1979 invasion, Afghanistan's foreign policy mirrored that of the Soviet Union. Most Western countries, including the United States, maintained small diplomatic missions in Kabul during the Soviet occupation. Repeated Taliban efforts to occupy Afghanistan's seat at the UN and Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) were unsuccessful.

The fall of the Taliban in October 2001 opened a new chapter in Afghanistan's foreign relations. Afghanistan is now an active member of the international community, and has diplomatic relations with countries from around the world. In December 2002, the six nations that border Afghanistan signed a ‘Good Neighbor' Declaration, in which they pledged to respect Afghanistan's independence and territorial integrity. In 2005 Afghanistan and its South Asia neighbors held the first annual Regional Economic Cooperation Conference (RECC) promoting intra-regional relations and economic cooperation.

==== Pakistan ====
The 1978 Marxist coup strained relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Pakistan took the lead diplomatically in the United Nations, the Non-Aligned Movement, and the Organization of the Islamic Conference in opposing the Soviet occupation. During the war against the Soviet occupation, Pakistan served as the primary logistical conduit for the Afghan resistance. Pakistan initially developed close ties to the Taliban regime, and extended recognition in 1997. Pakistan dramatically altered its policy after September 11, 2001 by closing its border and downgrading its ties. Afghanistan and Pakistan are engaged in dialogue to resolve these bilateral issues.

====Iran====
Afghanistan's relations with Iran have fluctuated over the years, with periodic disputes over the water rights of the Helmand River as the main issue of contention. Following the Soviet invasion, which Iran opposed, relations deteriorated. Iran supported the cause of the Afghan resistance and provided financial and military assistance to rebel leaders who pledged loyalty to the Iranian vision of Islamic revolution. Iran still provides refuge to Afghan ex-patriots. Following the emergence of the Taliban and their harsh treatment of Afghanistan's Shi'a minority, Iran stepped up assistance to the Northern Alliance. Relations with the Taliban deteriorated further in 1998 after Taliban forces seized the Iranian consulate in Mazar-e-Sharif and executed Iranian diplomats. Since the fall of the Taliban, Afghanistan's relations with Iran have improved. Iran has been active in Afghan reconstruction efforts, particularly in the western portion of the country.

====Russia====
During the reign of the Taliban, Russia became increasingly disenchanted over Taliban support for Chechen rebels and for providing a sanctuary for terrorist groups active in Central Asia and in Russia itself, and therefore provided military assistance to the Northern Alliance. Since the fall of the Taliban, the Karzai government has improved relations with Russia, but Afghanistan's outstanding foreign debt to Russia still continues to be a source of contention.

====Tajikistan====
Afghanistan's relations with Tajikistan have been complicated by political upheaval and civil war in Tajikistan, which spurred some 100,000 Tajiks to seek refuge in Afghanistan in late 1992 and early 1993. Also disenchanted by the Taliban's harsh treatment of Afghanistan's Tajik minority, Tajikistan facilitated assistance to the Northern Alliance. The Karzai government has sought to establish closer ties with its northern neighbor in order to capitalize on the potential economic benefits of increased trade.

====UN Efforts====
The United Nations was instrumental in obtaining a negotiated Soviet withdrawal under the terms of the 1988 Geneva Accords. In the aftermath of the Accords, the United Nations assisted in the repatriation of refugees and provided humanitarian aid such as food, health care, educational programs, and support for mine-clearing operations. From 1990 to 2001, the UN worked to promote a peaceful settlement between the Afghan factions as well as provide humanitarian aid. Since October 2001, the UN has played a key role in Afghanistan through the UN Assistance Mission to Afghanistan (UNAMA), including spearheading efforts to organize the Afghan presidential elections held in October 2004 and National Assembly elections held in 2005.

===Relations with the United States===
The first extensive American contact with Afghanistan was made by Josiah Harlan, an adventurer from Pennsylvania who was an adviser in Afghan politics in the 1830s and reputedly inspired Rudyard Kipling's story "The Man Who Would be King." After the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1934, the U.S. policy of helping developing nations raise their standard of living was an important factor in maintaining and improving U.S.-Afghan ties. From 1950 to 1979, U.S. foreign assistance provided Afghanistan with more than $500 million in loans, grants, and surplus agricultural commodities to develop transportation facilities, increase agricultural production, expand the educational system, stimulate industry, and improve government administration.

In the 1950s, the U.S. declined Afghanistan's request for defense cooperation but extended an economic assistance program focused on the development of Afghanistan's physical infrastructure—roads, dams, and power plants. Later, U.S. aid shifted from infrastructure projects to technical assistance programs to help develop the skills needed to build a modern economy. The Peace Corps was active in Afghanistan between 1962 and 1979.
[[File:MI-35 helicopters Afghan Army Air Corps.jpg|thumb|270px|MI-35 helicopters Afghan Army Air Corps.]]
After the April 1978 coup, relations deteriorated. In February 1979, U.S. Ambassador Adolph "Spike" Dubs was murdered in Kabul after Afghan security forces burst in on his kidnappers. The U.S. then reduced bilateral assistance and terminated a small military training program. All remaining assistance agreements were ended after the December 1979 Soviet invasion.

Following the Soviet invasion, the United States supported diplomatic efforts to achieve a Soviet withdrawal. U.S. contributions to the refugee program in Pakistan played a major part in efforts to assist Afghans in need. This cross-border humanitarian assistance program aimed to increase Afghan self-sufficiency and help Afghans resist Soviet attempts to drive civilians out of the rebel-dominated countryside. During the period of Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, the U.S. provided about $3 billion in military and economic assistance to Afghans and the resistance movement.

The U.S. supports the emergence of a broad-based government, representative of all Afghans and actively encourages a UN role in the national reconciliation process in Afghanistan. Today, the U.S. is assisting the Afghan people as they rebuild their country and establish a representative government that contributes to regional stability, is market friendly, and respects human rights. In May 2005, President Bush and President Karzai concluded a strategic partnership agreement committing both nations to a long-term relationship.

==Economy==
In the 1930s, Afghanistan embarked on a modest economic development program. The government founded banks; introduced paper money; established a university; expanded primary, secondary, and technical schools; and sent students abroad for education.

Historically, there has been a dearth of information and reliable statistics about Afghanistan's economy. The 1979 Soviet invasion and ensuing civil war destroyed much of the country's limited infrastructure and disrupted normal patterns of economic activity. Gross domestic product had fallen substantially because of loss of labor and capital and disruption of trade and transport. Continuing internal strife hampered both domestic efforts at reconstruction as well as international aid efforts. However, Afghanistan's economy has grown at a fast pace since the 2001 fall of the Taliban, albeit from a low base. In 2004, Afghanistan's GDP grew 17%, and in 2005 Afghanistan's GDP grew approximately 10%.

In June 2006, Afghanistan and the International Monetary Fund agreed on a Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility program for 2006-2009 that focuses on maintaining macroeconomic stability, boosting growth, and reducing poverty. Afghanistan is also rebuilding its banking infrastructure, through the Da Afghanistan National Bank. Several government-owned banks are also in the process of being privatized.

===Agriculture===
The main source of income in the country is agriculture, and during its good years, Afghanistan produces enough food and food products to provide for the people, as well as to create a surplus for export. The major food crops produced are: corn, rice, barley, wheat, vegetables, fruits, and nuts. In Afghanistan, industry is also based on agriculture, and pastoral raw materials. The major industrial crops are: cotton, tobacco, madder, castor beans, and sugar beets. The Afghan economy continues to be overwhelmingly agricultural, despite the fact that only 12% of its total land area is arable and less than 6% currently is cultivated. Agricultural production is constrained by an almost total dependence on erratic winter snows and spring rains for water; irrigation is primitive. Relatively little use is made of machines, chemical fertilizer, or pesticides.

Overall agricultural production dramatically declined following severe drought as well as sustained fighting, instability in rural areas, and deteriorated infrastructure. The easing of the drought and the end of civil war produced the largest wheat harvest in 25 years during 2003. Wheat production was an estimated 58% higher than in 2002. However, the country still needed to import an estimated one million tons of wheat to meet its requirements for the 2003 year. Millions of Afghans, particularly in rural areas, remained dependent on food aid.
[[File:Afghanistan opium.jpg|thumb|left|270px|Opium cultivation in Afghanistan.]]
Opium has become a source of cash for many Afghans, especially following the breakdown in central authority after the Soviet withdrawal, and opium-derived revenues probably constituted a major source of income for the two main factions during the civil war in the 1990s. Opium is easy to cultivate and transport and offers a quick source of income for impoverished Afghans. Afghanistan produced a record opium poppy crop in 2006, supplying 91% of the world's opium. Much of Afghanistan's opium production is refined into heroin and is either consumed by a growing regional addict population or exported, primarily to Western Europe.<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/5308180.stm</ref>

Afghanistan has begun counter-narcotics programs, including the promotion of alternative livelihoods, public information campaigns, targeted eradication policies, interdiction of drug shipments, as well as law enforcement and justice reform programs. These programs were first implemented in late 2005. In June 2006, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime estimated that the Afghan Government eradicated over 15,000 hectares of opium poppy.

===Trade and Industry===
Afghanistan is endowed with natural resources, including extensive deposits of [[natural gas]], [[petroleum]], [[coal]], [[copper]], [[chromite]], [[talc]], [[barite]]s, [[sulfur]], [[lead]], [[zinc]], [[iron ore]], [[salt]], and precious and semiprecious stones. Unfortunately, ongoing instability in certain areas of the country, remote and rugged terrain, and inadequate infrastructure and transportation network have made mining these resources difficult, and there have been few serious attempts to further explore or exploit them. Coal deposits have been widely exploited.

The most important resource has been natural gas, first tapped in 1967. At their peak during the 1980s, natural gas sales accounted for $300 million a year in export revenues (56% of the total). Ninety percent of these exports went to the Soviet Union to pay for imports and debts. However, during the withdrawal of Soviet troops in 1989, Afghanistan's natural gas fields were capped to prevent sabotage by the mujahidin. Restoration of gas production has been hampered by internal strife and the disruption of traditional trading relationships following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Trade in smuggled goods into Pakistan once constituted a major source of revenue for Afghan regimes, including the Taliban, and still figures as an important element in the Afghan economy, although efforts are underway to formalize this trade.

===Transportation===
In the 1960s, the United States helped build a highway connecting Afghanistan's two largest cities. It began in Kabul and wound its way through five of the country's core provinces—skirting scores of isolated and otherwise inaccessible villages; passing through the ancient market city of Ghazni; descending through Qalat; and eventually reaching Kandahar, founded by Alexander the Great. More than 35% of the country's population lives within 50 kilometers of this highway, called, appropriately, modern Afghanistan's lifeline. In 1978, the Soviet Union invaded. By the time its forces withdrew more than a decade later, more than 1 million Afghans had been killed and 5 million had fled. Civil war followed. The Taliban emerged, controlling all but the remote, northern regions. Afghanistan was terrorized by this group, which was dogmatically opposed to progress and democracy. More than two decades of war had left the Kabul-Kandahar highway devastated, like much of the country's infrastructure. Little could move along the lifeline that had provided so many Afghans with their means of livelihood and their access to healthcare, education, markets, and places of worship.

'''Reviving the Road''': Restoration of the highway has been an overriding priority of President Hamid Karzai. It is crucial to extending the influence of the new government. Without the highway link, Afghanistan's civil society and economy would remain moribund and prey to divisive forces. The economic development that the highway makes possible will help guarantee the unity and long-term security of the Afghan people. The restored highway is a visually impressive achievement whose symbolic importance should not be underestimated. It marks a palpable transition from the recent past and represents an important building block for the future. Recently, an official in Herat likened the ring road to veins and arteries that nourish and bring life to the "heart" of Kabul and the body of the country. The highway will not end in Kandahar: there are plans to complete the circuit, extending it to Herat and then arcing it back through Mazar-e Sharif to Kabul. The route is sometimes referred to as the Ring Road. As of December 2006, three-quarters of the Ring Road had been funded, with plans to be completed in 2007.

Landlocked Afghanistan has no functioning railways, but the Amu Darya (Oxus) River, which forms part of Afghanistan's border with Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan, has barge traffic. During their occupation of the country, the Soviets completed a bridge across the Amu Darya. The United States, in partnership with Norway, has agreed to reconstruct this bridge, which will stretch more than 650 meters over the Amu Darya/Pyandzh River between Afghanistan and Tajikistan, near Pyanji Poyon (Tajikistan) and Shir Khan Bandar (Afghanistan). The bridge is set for completion in 2007.

Afghanistan's national airline, Ariana, operates domestic and international routes, including flights to New Delhi, Islamabad, Dubai, Moscow, Istanbul, Tehran, and Frankfurt. A private carrier, Kam Air, commenced domestic operations in November 2003. Many sections of Afghanistan's highway and regional road system are undergoing significant reconstruction. The U.S. (with assistance from Japan) completed building a highway linking Kabul to the southern regional capital, Kandahar. Construction is soon to begin on the next phase of highway reconstruction between Kandahar and the western city of Herat. The Asian Development Bank is also active in road development projects, mainly in the border areas with Pakistan.

==Humanitarian Relief==
Many nations have assisted in a great variety of humanitarian and development projects all across Afghanistan since the fall of the Taliban in 2001. The United Nations, World Bank, Asian Development Bank and other international agencies have also given aid. Schools, clinics, water systems, agriculture, sanitation, government buildings and roads are being repaired or built.

===De-mining===
Afghanistan is one of the most heavily mined countries in the world; mine-related injuries number up to 100 per month, and an estimated 200,000 Afghans have been disabled by landmine/unexploded ordinances (UXO) accidents. As of March 2005 the United Nations Mine Action Program for Afghanistan had approximately 8,000 Afghan personnel, 700 demobilized soldiers, 22 international staff, and several NGOs deployed in Afghanistan. The goal of the program is to remove the impact of mines from all high-impact areas by 2007 and to make Afghanistan mine-free by 2012. Between January 2003 and March 2005 a total of 2,354,244 mines and pieces of UXOs were destroyed. Training programs are also being used to educate the public about the threat and dangers of land mines. The number of mine victims was reduced from approximately 150 a month in 2002 to less than 100 a month in 2004.

===Refugees and Internally Displaced People===
Afghanistan has had the largest refugee repatriation in the world in the last 30 years. The return of refugees is guided by the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation (MORR) and supported by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), International Organization of Migration (IOM), United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the World Food Program (WFP), the World Health Organization (WHO) and a number of other national and international NGOs. As of December 2006, approximately 3 million Afghans remained in neighboring countries. The U.S. provided more than $350 million to support Afghan refugees, returnees, and other conflict victims between September 2001 and March 2006. Since the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan, the country's non-opium economy has grown significantly and has allowed approximately 3 million people to return home.<ref>http://www.control-risks.com/default.aspx?page=605</ref>

===Health===
In response to a strategy outlined by the Ministry of Health, the international community is supporting the government in rebuilding the primary health-care system. Tuberculosis remains a serious public health problem in Afghanistan. Since this strategy was outlined, the Afghan Government with support from the World Health Organization (WHO) has established 162 health facilities in 141 districts across the country. The treatment success rate in 2002 was 86%. WHO is also assisting the Ministry of Health and local health authorities to combat malaria where the disease is widespread. Through this project, 600,000 individuals are receiving full treatment for malaria every year. In addition 750,000 individuals are protected from malaria by sleeping under special nets provided under the project.

===Education===
There were 45,000 children enrolled in school in 1993, 19% were girls. The latest official statistics show there are now 64,000 children in school, one third are girls. In addition 29% of the teachers in the province are women, compared with 15% in 1993. Effort is being made to ensure that teachers receive salaries on time and increasing the attendance of girls in school. The total enrollment rate for Afghan children between 7 and 13 years of age has increased to 54% (67% for boys and 37% for girls). A number of factors such as distance to schools, poor facilities and lack of separate schooling for boys and girls continue to be challenges to higher enrollment.

==History==
[[File:Friday - Mosque Afghanistan.jpg|thumb|260px|Friday-Mosque.]]
Afghanistan, often called the crossroads of Central Asia, has had a turbulent history. In 328 BC, Alexander the Great entered the territory of present-day Afghanistan, then part of the Persian Empire, to capture Bactria (present-day Balkh). Invasions by the Scythians, White Huns, and Turks followed in succeeding centuries. In AD 642, Arabs invaded the entire region and introduced Islam.

Arab rule gave way to the Persians, who controlled the area until conquered by the Turkic Ghaznavids in 998. Mahmud of Ghazni (998-1030) consolidated the conquests of his predecessors and turned Ghazni into a great cultural center as well as a base for frequent forays into India. Following Mahmud's short-lived dynasty, various princes attempted to rule sections of the country until the destructive Mongol invasion of 1219 led by Genghis Khan.

Following Genghis Khan's death in 1227, a succession of petty chiefs and princes struggled for supremacy until late in the 14th century, when one of his descendants, Tamerlane, incorporated Afghanistan into his own vast Asian empire. Babur, a descendant of Tamerlane and the founder of India's Moghul dynasty at the beginning of the 16th century, made Kabul the capital of an Afghan principality.

In 1747, Ahmad Shah Durrani, the founder of what is known today as Afghanistan, established his rule. A Pashtun, Durrani was elected king by a tribal council after the assassination of the Persian ruler Nadir Shah at Khabushan in the same year. Throughout his reign, Durrani consolidated chieftainships, petty principalities, and fragmented provinces into one country. His rule extended from Mashad in the west to Kashmir and Delhi in the east, and from the Amu Darya (Oxus) River in the north to the Arabian Sea in the south.

===European Influence===
During the 19th century, collision between the expanding British Empire in the subcontinent and czarist Russia significantly influenced Afghanistan in what was termed "The Great Game." British concern over Russian advances in Central Asia and growing influence in Persia culminated in two Anglo-Afghan wars. The first (1839–42) resulted not only in the destruction of a British army, but is remembered today as an example of the ferocity of Afghan resistance to foreign rule. The second Anglo-Afghan war (1878–80) was sparked by Amir Sher Ali's refusal to accept a British mission in Kabul. This conflict brought Amir Abdur Rahman to the Afghan throne. During his reign (1880-1901), the British and Russians officially established the boundaries of what would become modern Afghanistan through the demarcation of the Durand Line. The British retained effective control over Kabul's foreign affairs.

Afghanistan remained neutral during World War I, despite German encouragement of anti-British feelings and Afghan rebellion along the borders of British India. The Afghan king's policy of neutrality was not universally popular within the country, however.

Habibullah, Abdur Rahman's son and successor, was assassinated in 1919, possibly by family members opposed to British influence. His third son, Amanullah, regained control of Afghanistan's foreign policy after launching the third Anglo-Afghan war with an attack on India in the same year. During the ensuing conflict, the war-weary British relinquished their control over Afghan foreign affairs by signing the Treaty of Rawalpindi in August 1919. In commemoration of this event, Afghans celebrate August 19 as their Independence Day.

===Reform and Reaction===
King Amanullah (1919–29) moved to end his country's traditional isolation in the years following the third Anglo-Afghan war. He established diplomatic relations with most major countries and, following a 1927 tour of Europe and Turkey—during which he noted the modernization and secularization advanced by Atatürk—introduced several reforms intended to modernize Afghanistan. Some of these, such as the abolition of the traditional Muslim veil for women and the opening of a number of co-educational schools, quickly alienated many tribal and religious leaders. Faced with overwhelming armed opposition, Amanullah was forced to abdicate in January 1929 after Kabul fell to forces led by Bacha-i-Saqao, a Tajik brigand. Prince Nadir Khan, a cousin of Amanullah's, in turn defeated Bacha-i-Saqao in October of the same year and, with considerable Pashtun tribal support, was declared King Nadir Shah. Four years later, however, he was assassinated in a revenge killing by a Kabul student.

Mohammad Zahir Shah, Nadir Khan's 19-year-old son, succeeded to the throne and reigned from 1933 to 1973. In 1964, King Zahir Shah promulgated a liberal constitution providing for a two-chamber legislature to which the king appointed one-third of the deputies. The people elected another third, and the remainder were selected indirectly by provincial assemblies. Although Zahir's "experiment in democracy" produced few lasting reforms, it permitted the growth of unofficial extremist parties on both the left and the right. These included the communist People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA), which had close ideological ties to the Soviet Union. In 1967, the PDPA split into two major rival factions: the Khalq (Masses) faction headed by Nur Muhammad Taraki and Hafizullah Amin and supported by elements within the military, and the Parcham (Banner) faction led by Babrak Karmal. The split reflected ethnic, class, and ideological divisions within Afghan society.

Zahir's cousin, Sardar Mohammad Daoud, served as his Prime Minister from 1953 to 1963. During his tenure as Prime Minister, Daoud solicited military and economic assistance from both Washington and Moscow and introduced controversial social policies of a reformist nature. Daoud's alleged support for the creation of a Pashtun state in the Pakistan-Afghan border area heightened tensions with Pakistan and eventually resulted in Daoud's dismissal in March 1963.

===Daoud's Republic (1973-78) and the April 1978 Coup===
Amid charges of corruption and malfeasance against the royal family and poor economic conditions created by the severe 1971-72 drought, former Prime Minister Daoud seized power in a military coup on July 17, 1973. Zahir Shah fled the country, eventually finding refuge in Italy. Daoud abolished the monarchy, abrogated the 1964 constitution, and declared Afghanistan a republic with himself as its first President and Prime Minister. His attempts to carry out badly needed economic and social reforms met with little success, and the new constitution promulgated in February 1977 failed to quell chronic political instability.

Seeking to exploit more effectively mounting popular disaffection, the PDPA reunified with Moscow's support. On April 27, 1978, the PDPA initiated a bloody coup, which resulted in the overthrow and murder of Daoud and most of his family. Nur Muhammad Taraki, Secretary General of the PDPA, became President of the Revolutionary Council and Prime Minister of the newly established Democratic Republic of Afghanistan.
===Afghanistan War===
see also [[Afghanistan War]]

Opposition to the Marxist government emerged almost immediately. During its first 18 months of rule, the PDPA brutally imposed a Marxist-style "reform" program, which ran counter to deeply rooted Afghan traditions. Decrees forcing changes in marriage customs and pushing through an ill-conceived land reform were particularly misunderstood by virtually all Afghans. In addition, thousands of members of the traditional elite, the religious establishment, and the intelligentsia were imprisoned, tortured, or murdered. Conflicts within the PDPA also surfaced early and resulted in exiles, purges, imprisonments, and executions.

By the summer of 1978, a revolt began in the Nuristan region of eastern Afghanistan and quickly spread into a countrywide insurgency. In September 1979, Hafizullah Amin, who had earlier been Prime Minister and Minister of Defense, seized power from Taraki after a palace shootout. Over the next 2 months, instability plagued Amin's regime as he moved against perceived enemies in the PDPA. By December, party morale was crumbling, and the insurgency was growing.

===The Soviet Invasion===
The Soviet Union moved quickly to take advantage of the April 1978 coup. In December 1978, Moscow signed a new bilateral treaty of friendship and cooperation with Afghanistan, and the Soviet military assistance program increased significantly. The regime's survival increasingly was dependent upon Soviet military equipment and advisers as the insurgency spread and the Afghan army began to collapse.

By October 1979, however, relations between Afghanistan and the Soviet Union were tense as Hafizullah Amin refused to take Soviet advice on how to stabilize and consolidate his government. Faced with a deteriorating security situation, on December 24, 1979, large numbers of Soviet airborne forces, joining thousands of Soviet troops already on the ground, began to land in Kabul under the pretext of a field exercise. On December 26, these invasion forces killed Hafizullah Amin and installed Babrak Karmal, exiled leader of the Parcham faction, bringing him back from Czechoslovakia and making him Prime Minister. Massive Soviet ground forces invaded from the north on December 27.

Following the invasion, the Karmal regime, although backed by an expeditionary force that grew as large as 120,000 Soviet troops, was unable to establish authority outside Kabul. As much as 80% of the countryside, including parts of Herat and Kandahar, eluded effective government control. An overwhelming majority of Afghans opposed the communist regime, either actively or passively. Afghan freedom fighters (mujahidin) made it almost impossible for the regime to maintain a system of local government outside major urban centers. Poorly armed at first, in 1984 the mujahidin began receiving substantial assistance in the form of weapons and training from the U.S. and other outside powers.

In May 1985, the seven principal Peshawar-based guerrilla organizations formed an alliance to coordinate their political and military operations against the Soviet occupation. Late in 1985, the mujahidin were active in and around Kabul, launching rocket attacks and conducting operations against the communist government. The failure of the Soviet Union to win over a significant number of Afghan collaborators or to rebuild a viable Afghan army forced it to bear an increasing responsibility for fighting the resistance and for civilian administration.

<blockquote>
In the mid-nineteen-eighties, when [[Mikhail Gorbachev]] came to power in the Soviet Union, he inherited a deteriorating war in Afghanistan. He wanted out but he was boxed in by hardliners in his Politburo and military. Gradually, however, he constructed an exit strategy from Afghanistan. [http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/stevecoll/2009/09/gorbachev-was-right.html]
</blockquote>

Soviet and popular displeasure with the Karmal regime led to its demise in May 1986. Karmal was replaced by Muhammad Najibullah, former chief of the Afghan secret police (KHAD). Najibullah had established a reputation for brutal efficiency during his tenure as KHAD chief. As Prime Minister, Najibullah was ineffective and highly dependent on Soviet support. Undercut by deep-seated divisions within the PDPA, regime efforts to broaden its base of support proved futile.

===The Geneva Accords and Their Aftermath===
By the mid-1980s, the tenacious Afghan resistance movement—aided by the United States, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and others—was exacting a high price from the Soviets, both militarily within Afghanistan and by souring the U.S.S.R.'s relations with much of the Western and Islamic world. Informal negotiations for a Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan had been underway since 1982. In 1988, the Governments of Pakistan and Afghanistan, with the United States and Soviet Union serving as guarantors, signed an agreement settling the major differences between them. The agreement, known as the Geneva accords, included five major documents, which, among other things, called for U.S. and Soviet noninterference in the internal affairs of Pakistan and Afghanistan, the right of refugees to return to Afghanistan without fear of persecution or harassment, and, most importantly, a timetable that ensured full Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan by February 15, 1989. About 14,500 Soviet and an estimated one million Afghan lives were lost between 1979 and the Soviet withdrawal in 1989.

Significantly, the mujahidin were party neither to the negotiations nor to the 1988 agreement and, consequently, refused to accept the terms of the accords. As a result, the civil war continued after the Soviet withdrawal, which was completed in February 1989. Najibullah's regime, though failing to win popular support, territory, or international recognition, was able to remain in power until 1992 but collapsed after the defection of Gen. Abdul Rashid Dostam and his Uzbek militia in March. However, when the victorious mujahidin entered Kabul to assume control over the city and the central government, a new round of internecine fighting began between the various militias, which had coexisted only uneasily during the Soviet occupation. With the demise of their common enemy, the militias' ethnic, clan, religious, and personality differences surfaced, and the civil war continued.

Seeking to resolve these differences, the leaders of the Peshawar-based mujahidin groups established an interim Islamic Jihad Council in mid-April 1992 to assume power in Kabul. Moderate leader Prof. Sibghatullah Mojaddedi was to chair the council for 2 months, after which a 10-member leadership council composed of mujahidin leaders and presided over by the head of the Jamiat-i-Islami, Prof. Burhanuddin Rabbani, was to be set up for 4 months. During this 6-month period, a Loya Jirga, or grand council of Afghan elders and notables, would convene and designate an interim administration which would hold power up to a year, pending elections.

But in May 1992, Rabbani prematurely formed the leadership council, undermining Mojaddedi's fragile authority. In June, Mojaddedi surrendered power to the Leadership Council, which then elected Rabbani as president. Nonetheless, heavy fighting broke out in August 1992 in Kabul between forces loyal to President Rabbani and rival factions, particularly those who supported Gulbuddin Hekmatyar's Hezb-i-Islami. After Rabbani extended his tenure in December 1992, fighting in the capital flared up in January and February 1993. The Islamabad Accord, signed in March 1993, which appointed Hekmatyar as Prime Minister, failed to have a lasting effect. A follow-up agreement, the Jalalabad Accord, called for the militias to be disarmed but was never fully implemented. Through 1993, Hekmatyar's Hezb-i-Islami forces, allied with the Shi'a Hezb-i-Wahdat militia, clashed intermittently with Rabbani and Masood's Jamiat forces. Cooperating with Jamiat were militants of Sayyaf's Ittehad-i-Islami and, periodically, troops loyal to ethnic Uzbek strongman Abdul Rashid Dostam. On January 1, 1994, Dostam switched sides, precipitating large-scale fighting in Kabul and in northern provinces, which caused thousands of civilian casualties in Kabul and elsewhere and created a new wave of displaced persons and refugees. The country sank even further into anarchy, forces loyal to Rabbani and Masood, both ethnic Tajiks, controlled Kabul and much of the northeast, while local warlords exerted power over the rest of the country.

===The Taliban===
The Taliban had risen to power in the mid 90's in reaction to the anarchy and warlordism that arose after the withdrawal of Soviet forces. Many Taliban had been educated in madrassas in Pakistan and were largely from rural southern Pashtun backgrounds. In 1994, the Taliban developed enough strength to capture the city of Kandahar from a local warlord and proceeded to expand its control throughout Afghanistan, occupying Kabul in September 1996. By the end of 1998, the Taliban occupied about 90% of the country, limiting the opposition largely to a small mostly Tajik corner in the northeast and the Panjshir valley.

The Taliban sought to impose an extreme interpretation of Islam—based upon the rural Pashtun tribal code—on the entire country and committed massive human rights violations, particularly directed against women and girls. The Taliban also committed serious atrocities against minority populations, particularly the Shi'a Hazara ethnic group, and killed noncombatants in several well-documented instances. In 2001, as part of a drive against relics of Afghanistan's pre-Islamic past, the Taliban destroyed two Buddha statues carved into cliff faces outside of the city of Bamiyan.

From the mid-1990s the Taliban provided sanctuary to Osama bin Laden, a Saudi national who had fought with the mujahideen resistance against the Soviets, and provide a base for his and other terrorist organizations. Bin Laden provided both financial and political support to the Taliban. Bin Laden and his Al-Qaida group were charged with the bombing of the U.S. Embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam in 1998, and in August 1998 the United States launched a cruise missile attack against bin Laden's terrorist camp in southeastern Afghanistan. Bin Laden and Al-Qaida have acknowledged their responsibility for the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks against the United States.
[[Image:Afghanistan violence.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Journalist Jenny Hoff, 2007.]]
Following the Taliban's repeated refusal to expel bin Laden and his group and end its support for international terrorism, the U.S. and its partners in the anti-terrorist coalition began a military campaign on October 7, 2001, targeting terrorist facilities and various Taliban military and political assets within Afghanistan. Under pressure from U.S. military and anti-Taliban forces, the Taliban disintegrated rapidly, and Kabul fell on November 13, 2001.

Afghan factions opposed to the Taliban met at a United Nations-sponsored conference in Bonn, Germany in December 2001 and agreed to restore stability and governance to Afghanistan—creating an interim government and establishing a process to move toward a permanent government. Under the "Bonn Agreement," an Afghan Interim Authority was formed and took office in Kabul on December 22, 2001 with Hamid Karzai as Chairman. The Interim Authority held power for approximately 6 months while preparing for a nationwide "Loya Jirga" (Grand Council) in mid-June 2002 that decided on the structure of a Transitional Authority. The Transitional Authority, headed by President Hamid Karzai, renamed the government as the Transitional Islamic State of Afghanistan (TISA). One of the TISA's primary achievements was the drafting of a constitution that was ratified by a Constitutional Loya Jirga on January 4, 2004.

|A 37-year-old father reverts to age 17 through a visit to a mysterious janitor and learns that choosing family, which he strives to support however he can, and life over death and possible material riches is much more rewarding and fulfilling even if it is not always apparent. The film stands up for [[abstinence]] and self-respect, and contains a strong speech for both of them, as in this quote: "Because there is no one that I'm in love with. It's called making love, isn't it? Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I think that means you do it with someone you love. And preferably when you're married, when you're ready to take that love and turn it into a baby." The concept of fatherhood is painted positively as well because he ultimately learns he was reverted to age 17 so he could see things from his children's perspectives and help them resolve their problems.

|''The Avengers''
|2012
|PG
|Widely considered to be the crowning achievement of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this game-changing superhero film brings together several superheroes, all of whom previously starred in related films adapted from Marvel Comics, as they join the Norse god Thor (who is less of a god and more of an alien in this universe, thus averting support for paganism) in stopping his evil brother Loki from conquering the world with an extraterrestrial mercenary army. Despite being the first Marvel feature released by the liberal conglomerate [[Walt Disney Company]] and being directed by liberal Joss Whedon, the film condemns totalitarian ideals, namely Loki's actions. A pivotal scene has Loki forcing innocent Germans to kneel before him, but an old man refuses to submit to "men like him", comparing Loki's actions to Hitler and Nazi Germany's actions. Arriving to confront Loki in the next instant, Steve Rogers/Captain America references Hitler and Johan Schmidt/Red Skull's attempt at taking the world via a similar ideology. Furthermore, the film condemns communism because the heroic assassin character Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow, who works with the superheroes, implies that she regrets her time as a Soviet agent due to having to conduct various atrocities. Law-enforcement is depicted positively, too, as they join the Avengers in their climactic battle to defend New York City when Loki's army invades. Finally, while the film doesn't seem to favor any religion or non-religion in particular, it paints Christians positively when Captain America, before pursuing a fighting Thor and Loki, tells Black Widow, "There's only one God, ma'am, and I'm pretty sure He doesn't dress like that!" in an obvious reference to the Biblical God. Given that a lot of planning went into ''The Avengers'' even before Disney's acquisition of Marvel went into full effect, it should come as no surprise that these conservative subtexts shine through.

In the name of morality, this king, or "The Black Panther," seeks to destroy the villain and his plans to overthrow the other races and governments of the world. The Black Panther recognizes both the importance of helping those in need, as well as not going beyond one's governmental authority. Though there are plenty of pagan religious references, the film appeals in some ways to a general sense of Christian morality and governmental justice, and it never diverts into political correctness about black supremacism. Liberals have attempted to adopt ''Black Panther'' as a liberal film because of its predominantly black racial cast while ignoring the conservative subtexts that clearly shine through.

|Based upon the adventures of the patriotic superhero from Marvel Comics (and perhaps the company's most conservative superhero ever created), the frail, sickly U.S. Army recruit Steve Rogers is enhanced to the peak of human physicality by an experimental serum, then uses his newfound supersoldier abilities to combat Nazi terror in Europe while wearing a star-spangled uniform to avoid identification and carrying a throwable shield. Ultimately, he hunts down Nazi supersoldier Johan Schmidt/Red Skull, who was subject to an early, flawed version of Rogers' serum and has stolen the Tesseract, an energy source of unknown potential. Though Rogers succeeds, he is soon left with no choice but to crash Schmidt's aircraft into a glacier, leaving him frozen in suspended animation for decades until he wakes up in 2012 and readies for the events of the next film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, ''The Avengers''. Virtues shown include patriotism, perseverance, and the courage to confront evil dictators. It condemns against globalist views in the climax of the film, as Schmidt, when taunting Rogers, says, "I've seen the future, Captain! There are no flags!", referring to Rogers' choice to fight for his nation rather than harness the power of gods. Rogers rejects his claim by shouting, "Not my future!" Capitalism is painted positively in the form of a young Howard Stark (father of fellow Marvel superhero Tony Stark/Iron Man), who is first seen holding an expo for possible future inventions, including a flying car. The film condemns infidelity and premarital relations as well: British intelligence agent Peggy Carter initially assumes that Rogers is cheating on her (she learns the girl he is first seen dating previously forced herself on him); and, when Howard Stark says "fondue", he says he means a platonic dinner with Carter rather than innuendo for sex.

|''The Death of Stalin''
|2017 (UK and Toronto) 2018 (America and France)
|R
|An adaptation of the French historical fiction graphic novel of the same name. Although largely a satirical [[black comedy]], the movie nonetheless accurately shows the horrific events of the Soviet Union under Stalin's totalitarian rule and the events after his death, as well as the innately cowardly and treacherous nature of the Soviet Politburo (see [[Atheism and cowardice]] as well as [[Atheism and Mass Murder]]). It also is one of the few films to [[Allusion|allude]] to the anti-Semitic [[Doctor's plot]] that Stalin had orchestrated prior to his death (which had ironically been precipitated due to the doctor's plot killing off all the best doctors in Moscow at the time), making clear that, contrary to what the left claims, the USSR and the left adhered to anti-Semitism. The director of the film, Armando Iannucci, admits that a large part of the reason he made the film was partly because of how Stalin was still revered in Russia to the extent that the Russian hotel he stayed at had a portrait of Stalin up, while pointing out that no one would dare do the same regarding Hitler in similar situations.<ref>https://www.rollingstone.com/movies/features/armando-iannucci-death-of-stalin-trumps-funeral-w517602</ref> As if reinforcing this, the movie also ended up banned in Russia at the order of [[Vladimir Putin]].

|A cool teen in Chicago plays hooky with his girlfriend, his best friend, and a vintage Ferrari restored by his best friend's unseen, car-obsessed father. The film shows how teenagers can have fun without drugs, alcohol, or tobacco; and the main character is faithful to his girlfriend, likely choosing abstinence. In a clear anti-socialist statement, Ferris says that "I'm not European, I don't plan on being European. So who gives a crap if they're socialists? They could be fascist anarchists, it still doesn't change the fact that I don't own a car. Not that I condone fascism." Since the movie mocks the liberal public education system, Ferris even directly states that he is not socialist and will never be such. Furthermore, the character arc experienced by Ferris' best friend Cameron Fry promotes family unity because, after taking out his anger on his father's Ferrari and ultimately wrecking it beyond repair, Cameron gains the emotional maturity and courage to confront Mr. Fry about neglecting his wife and son for some time due to his obsession with restoring the car. Conservative commentator, economist, and comedian [[Ben Stein]] appears as one of Ferris's teachers.

|Fight club is considered to be a "conservative classic" for audiences mature enough to handle the violence and language. It argues against the idea that society can alter or control our basic human nature. One of the characters rants against consumerism which lead liberals to believe it is anti-capitalist moral, but don't be fooled. In reality it's pro self governance and anti-consumerism moral. We can't fill our happiness with buying things. It's pro-masculinity and warns society of the dangers of trying to suppress masculinity and promotes assertiveness and strength in men's minds and bodies.
The story is about a nameless first person character (Edward Norton) who is stuck in an unwanted job and life, who attends support groups to deal with his insomnia and depressed emotional state.

It also has an anti-infidelity message, as despite being widowed, Sam's wife Molly still refuses to be with anyone else, even when his false friend Carl tries to hit on her. Also it isn't PC on [[Eternal damnation|damnation]], as the villains are seen being cared away helplessly by evil spirits after they die. It also acknowledges that heaven & hell exists.

|''[[Ghostbusters]]''
|1984
|PG
|Three parapsychologists (later joined by a fourth teammate, who acts as their voice of reason) lose their jobs at Columbia University as they fail to deal with a ghost plaguing the New York Public Library, so they develop ghost-weakening "proton packs" and go into business ridding New York City of poltergeists. The film fittingly satirizes an unfair (and likely liberal) professor, senseless academic research, paganism, and a villainous EPA regulator. One conservative sample line by Ghostbuster Raymond "Ray" Stantz (Dan Aykroyd) when asked to shift from the public to the [[private sector]] reads like this: "I don’t know about that. I’ve worked in the private sector. They expect results!" A sequel, ''Ghostbusters 2'', followed in 1989, though there is some debate as to whether it qualifies as great since it revisits many of the same plot points from the first movie. The original film was remade in 2016 as a liberal revisionist and pro-feminist piece (with the four main character all female), which bombed at the box office and had a trailer almost universally panned on YouTube.

|R
|The tale of an enslaved former Roman general, Maximus (played by Russell Crowe), who becomes a gladiator and brings down a corrupt Emperor, features some of the most exciting action sequences ever filmed, backed by Hanns Zimmer’s soaring soundtrack. In essence this is a movie about confronting evil and destroying it. There is not an ounce of appeasement or the whiff of "engagement" in Maximus’s blood, only the desire to avenge the murder of his family and see justice carried out. It is the sort of uncompromising movie experience guaranteed to send pacifists and lily-livered liberals running for the exits.

Liberals were shocked when it stood strong in the box office, being in the top 5 in its opening weekend.

His father, likewise It also deals with redemption as well, as after Tony Stark made a very big mess of himself, he worked hard to redeem himself for his past behavior, ultimately succeeding in the ending. It also promotes the concept of honoring thy father and family values, as Tony noted that his father, Howard Stark, has been distant with him, although a later film reel, which also proved instrumental to saving his life, revealed that Howard Stark, while distant, nonetheless genuinely loved his son and even gave him words of encouragement from beyond the grave. Howard, likewise, was depicted in a manner similar to famed animator and capitalist [[Walt Disney]]. It also depicts feminism in a negative light, as while Pepper Potts did run Stark Enterprises, it was solely due to anger at Tony Stark's bad behavior in the film and not because she wanted it. It also condemns nihilism as well, as the reason why Tony Stark behaved badly was due to him dying and figuring he might as well act irresponsibly for his last days living. Also like the past film, it depicted terrorism (in particular communist-based terrorism) and treason in a very negative light, as Armand Hammer, in clear envy towards Tony Stark, proceeded to break out and hire an infamous Russian terrorist, Ivan Vanko, who held a grudge against Tony Stark due to his father Howard Stark sending his father Anton Vanko back to the USSR under suspicions that he was a Communist plant, with the terrorist later proceeding to have Hammer's Iron Man knockoff suits automatically attack everyone with Hammer being arrested. Also condemns the idea of government intervention in businesses, due to Iron Man being exceedingly reluctant to sell off his Iron Man suit to the government.

|Surprisingly takes on an anti-feminist theme by depicting the [[father]] as the good, righteous side in a courtroom divorce trial against a greedy, avaricious and uncaring mother, who only wants the children so she can wring every cent of alimony and child support she can out of the father while keeping the children away from him and showing little regard for them herself. In addition, the film also promotes the concept of redemption and bettering oneself, as the main protagonist, an unscrupulous lawyer, despite resistance towards the wish, ultimately tries to honor his son's birthday wish to not lie for a day even under dire consequences to himself such as being hauled to jail at one point, and ultimately succeeds in keeping his promise of not lying with the ending implying he gave up lying for good, and was also pro-family as the protagonist ultimately tries to better his life for the sake of his son.

|''Logan''
|2017
|R
|(not for children) Unlike the mainstream ''X-Men'' films, which focus on the struggle of mutants to gain acceptance in the world (similar to homosexual rights), Hugh Jackman's final appearance as Logan/Wolverine takes on a much more personal and realistic tone, Logan being by far the most human mutant portrayed in the movies. With mutants on the brink of extinction, Logan's healing factor beginning to fail him, and the metal coating his skeleton now poisoning him, Logan has been reduced to working as a limo chauffeur to care for an ailing Charles Xavier. He is also binging on alcohol far more than ever before, much to the chagrin of fellow mutant Caliban. He reluctantly agrees, at the behest of a nurse named Gabriela, to escort Laura, a young girl and clone-daughter of Logan, to "Eden," a safe haven (and reference to the location of the birth of mankind) for mutant children who were born within the walls of Transigen, a biomedical company that had illegally used the DNA of mutants, including Logan, to create cloned children whom they turned into soldiers.

The movie emphasizes faith at least twice, most notably when Logan and Charles view Gabriela's phone video about Transigen, in which she says that the children have never seen any of God's creations, as well as Charles saying that Eden is "real for Laura," despite Logan's skepticism. The nature of Transigen's horrific experiments also gives the movie anti-cloning and anti-God playing messages. But even more importantly, despite his losing faith with the world, his fellow mutants all but gone, Logan is reminded of the value of family, he, Charles, and Laura accepting a family's invitation to have dinner and spend the night. Charles remarks to Logan, "This is what life looks like. A house. A safe place. People who love each other. You should take a moment." Finally, in the movie's climax, Logan finds the redemption he has long sought, facing off against a clone, as well as a symbol of the violent demons within himself, giving his own life, so that the children can escape across the border into Canada.

|A loose adaptation of the graphic novel of the same name. The film carries an implicit promotion of national borders and legal immigration/assimilation, as the titular organization keeps the existence of extraterrestrial immigrants secret and allows them in so long as the aliens specifically make sure they undergo naturalization first and that they obey certain laws. In addition, the opening scene has Kay and his partner stopping attempted illegal immigrants from crossing into the country and was implied to be working alongside the ICE and border patrol to prevent illegal immigrants into the country while trying to prevent a literal illegal alien, Mikey, from entering the country illegally, with the alien being depicted in a negative light due to him trying to kill an ICE agent before being atomized by Kay. Also condemns terrorism, as the main villain, Edgar the Bug, arrived on Earth to personally assassinate two extraterrestrial diplomats of two warring civilizations specifically to engineer a war with Earth and thus allow his kind to feast on any killed in battle. There's also a subtle mocking of the liberal news rag ''New York Times'', where one of the characters, Kay, when explaining to Jay that he was searching via tabloid articles, suggested he could use the ''New York Times'' as searching for information as "they sometimes get it right", implying that the ''New York Times'' was less reliable than tabloid articles.

It also pulls no punches and makes clear that the ''[[New York Times]]'', and more specifically its head [[Walter Duranty]], was fully complicit in hiding Stalin's crimes and depicted them in a very negative light, and also highlights the full corruption of the leftist media, as Duranty utilized drugs and sex at private parties to buy his fellow journalists' silence.

However, when his daughter and best friend are kidnapped, Keller takes matters into his own hands by kidnapping, imprisoning, and torturing the man whom he believes is responsible, even though it becomes apparent that he could not have done it. This is a clear transformation from holy man to sinner, as is symbolized at one point by the filmmakers intentionally changing Keller's daughter's best friend's rat from white to black. This makes it clear that the movie is self-aware that its main protagonist is no longer a good Christian man. Furthermore, this is could be a symbolization of Jesus Christ's crucifixion, as the man being tortured is innocent, and suffering for the crimes of the real kidnapper, his aunt.

This film’s main themes—the primacy of the family, the blessings of free and open markets, the necessity of staying true to one’s ideals—are all conservative concepts.

|At an airborne high school for tomorrow's superheroes, student Will Stronghold is the son of two costumed vigilantes who, while he does not appear to have superpowers at first, develop them over time, hinting at the idea of social advancement, which is the basis for the [[American Dream]]. The main lesson he learns is knowing how to use one's abilities to one's advantage and achieve a greater goal. A catchphrase in the film is: "Just because you have powers, that doesn't make you a hero," which can be related to the expression, "Guns don't kill people; people kill people." On a similar note, similar to ''The Incredibles'', the line also condemns forced diversity promotion messages such as "everyone can be a hero".
Furthermore, the film promotes the idea that anyone can be a hero, as Will and his "sidekick" friends with seemingly unimpressive superhuman abilities eventually rise above their assigned statuses and save the school. Also, Gwen Grayson/Royal Pain, the feminist main villain, seeks to turn all the superheroes into babies, then raise them up to be evil and loyal to her (perhaps an effort to play God). In addition, Will's best friend Layla Williams, who can control plant life and ultimately becomes his girlfriend, is shown to contain many liberal beliefs, especially pacifism, but she gives up her pacifism to fight back and help defeat Royal Pain and her cronies.

Moreover, in a dream sequence villain Harley Quinn shows her deepest desires which is being a housewife (points for having the guts for showing a female character not wanting to be part of the feminist agenda, especially in this day and age, even if it not surprisingly infuriated liberal critics<ref>http://www.avclub.com/article/margot-robbie-deserves-better-suicide-squads-sexis-240618</ref>).

Leonardo then regrets his actions and stands vigil over his unconscious brother, hoping that he will wake up so that Leo can apologize (and they do reconcile). Splinter gets kidnapped very early in the movie and the turtles are very distraught by his absence. The movie also paints hedonism and deliquency in a negative light, and the Foot Clan is shown to be a gang of teenage runaways taken in by Shredder who maintain a hideout full of vices such as smoking, drinking, and gambling. Shredder exploits them by giving them their hedonistic desires in exchange for their loyalty. this is most emphasized with the character of Danny Pennington, who is estranged from his father and runs away to join the Foot Clan. Later in the movie, Splinter reveals to Danny that Shedder is in fact Oroku Saki, the man responsible for killing his owner, Hamato Yoshi, and he convinces Danny to reconcile with his father.

He then remembers the importance of honoring his father and sacrifice for a greater good when his wicked trickster brother Loki, who seeks to claim the throne of Asgard for himself, sends after him the Destroyer, a ferocious automaton. Thor’s willingness to lay down his life so his friends can kill the Destroyer proves him worthy to regain his powers, defeat the automaton, and return to Asgard to overthrow Loki, who faces his own consequences for betraying the family (namely, being dropped into the vacuum of space, only to turn up alive after the credits, setting up the plot for another great conservative Marvel film, ''The Avengers'').

|''Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory''
|1971
|G
|Showing the importance of having character. Willy Wonka gives each of the kids on tour an Everlasting Gobstopper, which is a potential goldmine, given that a rival spy had earlier offered each of the kids money in exchange for handing over this new invention. Also, every single kid, except Charlie, misbehaves in such a way that injures or deforms them in some way. The film also promotes capitalism, with Wonka being such a successful business leader in the world of candy. In addition, this film is surely to annoy liberals, who want to ban chocolate candy and sweets.<ref>http://www.toberight.com/2012/02/liberals-banning-sweets-on-valentines-day/</ref>

The hidden message in this film is one of redemption. It is hidden because it is conveyed through the imagery of the film's final scene. Charlie has made it to the end of his journey. Despite having the urge, and a clean opportunity, to sell Wonka out to his rival, Charlie ends up giving the Everlasting Gobstopper back to Wonka. For this act of integrity, he is rewarded beyond his wildest expectations—he is given ownership of the factory. Incidentally, while he is riding in the Wonkavator, it crashes through the ceiling up into the sky. The [[allusion]] to [[Heaven]] and [[salvation]] is unmistakable.

|''[[101 Dalmatians]]''
|1961
|G
|Set in 1960s London, England, a Dalmatian couple named Pongo and Perdita welcome their fifteen puppies into the world. When the fur-obsessed Cruella De Vil and her henchmen steal the puppies, the Dalmatians cross the English countryside to get them back. The movie portray the importance of family positively in the form of Pongo and Perdita stopping at nothing until they rescue their puppies; they also adopt the other eighty-four puppies Cruella had bought to turn into fur coats, which shows family by adoption in a positive light. Marriage is also shown in a positive light in the form of a Christian wedding ceremony for the dogs' owners and the dogs themselves as well. It also positively portrays heroism in the forms of several animals (including Sergeant Tibbs the cat, Colonel the sheepdog, and Captain the horse) assisting the Dalmatians in finding their puppies and helping them all get home. A live-action remake was released in 1996.

|''A Bug's Life''
|1998
|G
|Based on the Aesop fable "The Ant and the Grasshopper", a young and inventive, if clumsy, ant named Flik plans to recruit a military force of warrior insects to save his colony from being oppressed by evil grasshoppers who have enslaved the ants to harvest food for them, lest they may be punished. Flik is a model for individualism as well as a strong work ethic who believes in bettering himself and his colony with his impressive harvesting inventions. To some extent, the film pokes fun at the homosexual agenda, in particular transvestitism: the male ladybug Francis frequently mistaken for a woman because of his species' name, and he routinely corrects other characters about this confusion, at one point even launching into a tirade with several flies before having to be restrained.

|''All Dogs go to Heaven''
|1989
|G
|The film's protagonist, a talking dog named Charlie B. Barkin (Voiced by Burt Reynolds), is a gambler and a swindler. After being murdered by his former partner, Carface, he comes back to life by winding his "life watch" and plans to get revenge on Carface. He "rescues" a girl named Anne-Marie (voiced by the late Judith Barsi) from Carface and exploits her ability to talk to animals in order to win at gambling. As the film progresses, Charlie begins to be influenced by Anne-Marie's kindness and love. In the end, he must choose between saving Anne-Marie's life and protecting his "life watch" (he will die if it ever stops) and he chooses the former.

The film depicts Christianity in a positive light. In addition to the obvious references to Heaven and Hell, Anne-Marie is also shown praying before she goes to bed, thanking God for Charlie's "rescue" (which, even though he had his own selfish purposes, did get her away from Carface's abuse).

The film is also pro-family. Anne-Marie is introduced as an orphan who wants to find new parents. During the movie, she meets a compassionate couple named Kate and Harold, who eventually adopt her.

|1986
|G
|A movie dealing with immigration, the movie is pro-family due to Fieval, the main character, being separated from his family due to a storm, and him and his family going out of their way to find each other. Also has a subtle condemnation of machine politics ([[Tammany Hall]], in this case) and voter fraud due to one of the characters, "Honest" John, the implied mouse mayor of New York City, declaring a then-recently deceased mouse (who was implied to have died before he was old enough to vote) to be able to "vote from now on" before adding the mouse's name to a book (a clear allusion to ghost voters), with the mouse not being painted in a particularly good light. Also promotes legal immigration, and a redemption theme due to one of the antagonists, an orange tabby cat named Tiger, ultimately being befriended by Fieval and becoming an ally to the mice.

|''The Angry Birds Movie''
|2016
|PG
|Based on the video game app of the same name, the film has its moments of rude humor but surprisingly has a strong Anti-Illegal Immigration message with the pigs practically representing Islamic migrants (the villain, King Mudbeard, even looks like a Middle Eastern man). The pigs trick the birds into accepting them to live on their island and once they have their respect, steal their eggs and blow up their island (part of the collateral damage is a statue of a [[bald eagle]] no less). Red, the only bird who was suspicious of them from the beginning, is first demonized by the community because of this, but later forgiven after he is proven right and decides to fight back and rescue their eggs from the pigs.

|''Animal Farm'' (animated film)
|1954
|Not Rated
|Animated film adaptation of the conservative text of the same name from George Orwell. Just like in the novel, it uses animals in the pretext of leveling harsh criticism against Communism and against Josef Stalin. Unlike in the book, which heavily implies that the pigs ultimately succeed in taking power with the animals being left unable to do anything against them, the film ends with the animals doing a successful revolt against the pigs, although the ending leaves it ambiguous as to whether the animals will learn their lesson on communism from the experience. It was also made in part by the [[CIA]].

|A Disney animated short (back when Conservatives were still in charge) that shows the dangers of listening to lies and rumors, and falling prey to persuasive leaders. The studio originally wanted to have the villain of the short, Foxy Loxy read Hitler's ''Mein Kampf'' to make sure no one missed the point, but in the end they changed it to just a generic psychology book in attempt to prevent the short from becoming dated after the war, although in the actual film, the passages he was heard reading were taken directly from ''Mein Kampf'', thus preserving the scene's original message overall.<ref>http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-w2rTnQ7x68M/UkZ7sfQmfoI/AAAAAAAAHzE/SM9wrZ6A4vE/s1600/CLSB+9.jpg</ref> On a related note, the short is further evidence disproving various liberal claims that Walt Disney had been a fascist/Nazi supporter.

After entering the Land of the Dead, Miguel encounters Héctor, a down-on-his-luck skeleton who once played music with Ernesto.

|''Dinosaur''
|2000
|PG
|A clan of lemurs living on a tropical island finds an egg and raises a baby dinosaur from that egg: an ''Iguanodon'' named Aladar. When their island home is destroyed by a meteor shower years later, Aladar and four remaining lemurs join a herd of migrating dinosaurs on their way to their nesting grounds, all while predators lurk behind them. The movie portrays family - both by blood and adoption - very well, shown when the lemurs adopt and raise Aladar while he protects them in return. Even Kron - the herd's stubborn leader - and his sister Neera share a bond; Kron never acts harsh towards Neera, and Neera tries (but unfortunately fails) to save Kron from a ''Carnotaurus''. Aladar is also shown to be against [[Social Darwinism]], opposing Kron's strict belief that the old and weak should be left behind and helping the oldest dinosaurs in the herd keep up; his beliefs are also what gets Neera to like him, after watching him helping Eema the elderly ''Styracosaurus'' and two orphaned ''Iguanodons'' get some water. Redemption is also positively shown when Bruton - second-in-command to Kron - sacrifices himself to save the stragglers of the herd by bringing the cave down onto himself and a predator.

|''Dr. Seuss' The Grinch''
|2018
|PG
|Like the animated special and live-action film before it, the film retains the anti-nihilism and redemptive themes in the movie. The anti-materialism message also is further reinforced as Grinch's chance encounter with Cindy Lou Who has him learning that she didn't even intend to ask for presents, but rather to ease her mom's burden due to doing so many things for so many people, which ultimately acted as the catalyst for his redemption. Also has a promotion of family values, since as noted above, Cindy Lou Who expressed concern for her mom barely spending time being a mom and burning the wick at both ends, and a primary part of the Grinch's hatred for the holiday dealt with his time as an orphan, with it being heavily implied that he was alone even in the orphanage. Due to several scenes in the film with Christmas carols being sung, it is also one of the few movies to explicitly note that the point of Christmas was also a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ.

|''Dumbo''

It also illustrates the effective management of a business that treats people and animals as equals. Later in the film, a flock of jolly birds encourage Dumbo to pull himself up by his bootstraps and learn to fly. An anti-bullying message is also shown with the elephants in the circus cruelly laughing at Dumbo and later blaming him for getting his mother locked up, though Timothy Q. Mouse sticks up for Dumbo and scares the other elephants to help him out.

Also has an anti-eminent domain lesson, with Kuzco realizes it would be wrong of him to steal the land from the villagers. The villain is also a feminist, with it being heavily implied that her methods of raising Kuzco are the primary reason why he turned out a spoiled brat. Is also a rare example of a comedy film churned out of Hollywood that actually does use witty humor and not low-hanging fruit-type jokes for its humor. It also has a humorous condemnation of homosexuality, as when Kuzco is knocked unconscious from the rapids, Pacha attempted to perform CPR only for Kuzco to regain consciousness just as Pacha was about start CPR, causing both to recoil in disgust from the near-kiss, as well as Kuzco explicitly making clear such was disgusting. Although the ending was slightly altered due to songwriter Sting, an environmentalist, taking offense at the implication that Kuzco built his summer retreat in the Jungle and cleared them away, it nonetheless retained the hints that Kuzco ultimately was a changed man from the experience.

As a result, she has grown into a tomboy - contrary to traditional Japanese notions of femininity, she studies kendo, drinks sake, dresses in often ridiculous Western fashions instead of the traditional kimono, and isn't as interested in housework as she is in literature. She also rejects the idea of arranged marriages and believes in a woman's right to a career and to marry for love. Benio's best friends are the beautiful Tamaki, who is much more feminine than Benio but equally interested in women's rights, and Ranmaru, a young man who was raised to play female roles in the kabuki theater and as a result has acquired very effeminate mannerisms. One day, Benio has a series of embarrassing encounters with the handsome army lieutenant Shinobu Ijuin, only to receive a shock when her father tells her that Shinobu is to be her husband, due to a pact made between the Hanamura and Ijuin families before Benio's birth. At first Benio tries to fight against her father's wishes, attempting to elope with her friend Ranmaru and eventually deliberately erring in her wifely duties in every way imaginable, hoping the families will cancel the engagement. However, her scheme fails - Shinobu genuinely loves Benio and patiently forgives her for her many blunders, and Benio soon realizes that in spite of herself, she is also falling in love with him. However, a major in the army who holds a grudge against Shinobu then sends the young lieutenant to fight in Manchuria.

|''Ice Age''
|2002
|PG
|In prehistoric times, a woolly mammoth, a giant ground sloth, and a ''Smilodon'' (i.e., saber-toothed tiger) work together to return a nomadic human chief's infant son to his tribe. Better than any of its four increasingly poorly-made sequels, this film promotes friendship and family values, especially on the part of Diego the ''Smilodon'', who learns that revenge does not solve anything: he first wants to eat the infant as payback for losing half of his pack to human hunters but grows to like the child and appreciate the innocence he represents. Manny also undergoes similar development, originally not being fond of the infant and overall being cynical and unpleasant for reasons later revealed by a cave painting to be due to his own mate and child having been slaughtered by a tribe of humans, but then ultimately forms a bit of a bond with him for similar reasons to why Diego grew to like the child. There are a couple of characters named Carl and Frank who are heavily implied to be homosexual, although they were depicted in a very negative light, having a murderous hatred of Sid for very trivial reasons (namely, the fact that Sid accidentally ruined their salad due to trying to wipe off poop he stepped on by accident as well as obliviously eating a dandelion, with Manny having some disgust for them when learning they wanted to kill Sid for pleasure, and later after Sid called them "ladies" upon reaching the wrong spa, and only failed to kill him that time due to Sid and Diego tricking them into believing the latter killed him.).

|''[[The Incredibles]]''
|2004
|PG
|The world's superheroes are forced to give up their heroics and go into hiding after Bob Parr/Mr. Incredible saves a suicidal man as well as a derailed train from a bridge destroyed by one of his enemies (who ironically gets away with it). The populace misguidedly turns on superheroes and turn to unscrupulous lawyers to sue them, despite the real damage being caused by the supervillains.

The film celebrates the importance of the family unit: Helen Parr/Elastigirl fails at parenting when Bob neglects to help her raise their children. A traditional family of superheroes is portrayed as the saviors of society, whose importance and presence has been unfairly suppressed thanks to the liberal-dominated mainstream media and its preference to see the worst in people. In addition, Mr. Incredible is shown from the start to take marriage to Helen seriously, immediately heading over to his wedding when he realizes he may be running late and doing various crime-stopping when he has time before it.

The movie also contains the conservative idea that recognition should be based on merit rather than on unsubstantiated expectations of equality. Out of sheer jealousy, the villainous Syndrome, formerly Mr. Incredible's biggest fan, attempts to kill off real superheroes so he can use technology to pretend to be one, later planning to sell his gadgets so everyone in the world can have superpowers. "And when everyone is super," he explains, "no one will be." Earlier in the film, Dash, when explaining he pulled a prank on the school teacher simply so he could demonstrate his super-speed, echoes what Syndrome says later on: Helen states everyone was special in their own way by saying that it was simply another way of saying no one was truly special. When Mr. Incredible is asked to attend his son's fifth-grade graduation, he criticizes society for "celebrating mediocrity" instead of those who are "genuinely exceptional."

At Bob Parr's civilian job, employer Gilbert Huph is shown to be heartless but not because of capitalism: when Bob asks if he should help his customers, Gilbert tells him, "The law requires that I answer no", which shows the negativity of government regulation in business.

Overall, the film teaches against government-enforced mediocrity. This film may be the most conservative animation film ever made, in fact it is ranked Number 2 by National Review for the most conservative movies within the last 25 years. <ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20150122222200/https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/177317/2-best-conservative-movies-last-25-years/frederica-mathewes-greene</ref> A sequel was released in 2018.

|''Isle Of Dogs''

|PG-13
|Set in the fictional Japanese city Megasaki, Mayor Kobayashi issues a decree that all of the city's dogs - whether they're pets or strays - are to be quarantined and taken to Trash Island until a cure for "dog flu" comes around. The mayor's nephew and ward, Atari, heads over to the island to find his dog Spots and is befriended by five dogs (Chief, Rex, King, Boss, and Duke), who all decide to help him find Spots. Along the way, they discover that the mayor has hidden sinister motives behind banning all dogs from Megasaki. The movie condemns totalitarian rule and animal cruelty, the latter shown in the case of Kobayashi's anti-dog propaganda and Gondo's "cannibal" pack, who have been subjected to scientific experiments until an "act of God" rescued them. It also shows family and redemption in a positive light, for Mayor Kobayashi has taken Atari in after his parents were killed and decides to abandon his anti-dog plans once he sees how much Atari has gone through, even donating a kidney once the boy's remaining kidney fails.

While aside from the film being pro-family, the dogs to whatever they can to protect the human baby from the rat, in showing [[chivalry]]. In addition, Lady condemns Tramp for having other girlfriends, after finding out from the pound dogs that his only weakness is that he is a womanizer, thus showing infidelity and promiscuity in a very negative light. In the end, he becomes faithful to her and joins her human family. There also anti-environmentalist aspects as well, with the dogs learning to understand their place, that although humans come first they still have a place in their heart, as the beliefs Tramp had on humans being so cruel turned out to be false. Also, the iconic Bella Notte scene where they accidentally kiss by eating the same spaghetti took place and was served by the kind-hearted capitalist restaurant owner Tony. On top of that, this is a rarity in Disney Animation to have Christmas depicted in the film and shown in a positive light.

In 2000, a sequel starring Scamp - the son of Lady and Tramp - premiered on home video. A live-action remake was released and streamed on Disney+ in November 2019.

|In this film that promotes family values and friendship, the main character (Littlefoot) is a dinosaur that loses his mother. This sparked some controversy, because the killing of a family member is quite violent for a movie with a kid-targeted audience, but this movie redeems itself through the plot. Littlefoot finds friends throughout the movie that show team work, cooperation, hard work, and diligence are the key to living a successful life, even in the dinosaur world. Over the span of twenty-eight years, thirteen sequels had been released on home video.

|''Lilo & Stitch''
|2002
|PG
|In this heartwarming Disney animation, Experiment 626—a short but mischievous, [[koala]]-like beast created by an alien mad scientist (an origin similar to the monster's in the conservative novel ''Frankenstein'' and its 1931 film adaptation)—escapes from an interstellar prison and crashes down in Hawaii, where a lonely girl mistakes him for a dog, adopts him, and names him "Stitch." Stitch then gradually abandons his destructive ways and begins seeking love and friendship. The film is so delightfully pro-family that the tagline is, "''Ohana'' means family [in Hawaiian]. Family means nobody gets left behind, or forgotten." Also briefly pokes fun at environmentalist policies, as the climax reveals that Earth was nearly subject to an alien invasion in 1973, but the CIA Agent-turned child welfare services agent Cobra Bubbles managed to thwart it by claiming that the Earth was designated a breeding ground for an endangered species called [[mosquito]]es (which obviously weren't endangered at all).

|''[[The Lion King]]''
|1994
|G
|Based mainly upon the Shakespearean play ''Hamlet'', the main message of this box office smash hit is about the power of the individual and the triumph of faith, friendship, hope, and heroism. ''The Lion King'' also features subtle Christian messages, such as honoring one's father and reconciliation.

Its story takes partial inspiration from Scripture, particularly the stories of [[Joseph]] and [[Moses]]. On a side note, the film features the power-hungry main antagonist Scar, who kills his own brother, the ruling king Mufasa, to usurp the throne, then manipulates his nephew, Mufasa's young son Simba, into thinking that Simba is responsible for his father's death and forces him into exile. Scar is a model liberal because, once he becomes ruler, he favors [[Communism|Communistic]]/[[Fascism|fascistic]] big government, pushes [[liberal values]], and lets their Pride Lands territory fall to ruin. In addition, when rallying up the Hyenas to aid him in killing Mufasa, he vows that they will never starve under his rule, mirroring what various Communist and other leftist insurgents often vow when trying to get people to aid them in taking over a government. The song "Be Prepared" also shows the Hyenas [[goose step|goose stepping]] past Scar as he looks down from a cliff in a clear reference to Nazism. On a similar note, the Hyenas also act as a subtle condemnation against illegal immigration and the concept of open borders, as once the Hyenas merge with the Pride Lands and take it over upon Scar becoming king, it is heavily implied that they forced the Lionesses to overhunt and that ended up causing the Pride Lands territory to become a wasteland by driving out any remaining animals, with Scar indicating that they should "eat Zazu" if they want food.

At several points in the film, Scar delusively believes he is still a very good king, even claiming "I'm ten times the king Mufasa was!", which is similar to liberal delusions of their own skills in governing (i.e., Obama's later claim that he would have "won" reelection into a third term if he was able to run again, despite never being legally qualified to run in the first place, not to mention his being legally barred from running for a third term even if he were legally qualified to run in the first place per the [[Twenty-Second Amendment]] to the United States Constitution). He unsuccessfully attempts to orchestrate the assassination of Simba by using hyena minions and even attempts to kill him himself, to ensure that he will be king and remain so forevermore, but he is thwarted by Simba once the cub reaches adulthood. Simba effectively becomes King and restores the Pride Lands after Scar, who tries to save his own skin by blaming his minions for everything he orchestrated himself, has the hyenas turn against and kill him.

There is a slight condemnation towards anarchy in the film as well: during the song "Be Prepared", the hyena Shenzi, upon learning that Scar is planning to kill Mufasa and Simba, entertains the possibility of a kingless society before Scar sternly tells the laughing hyenas that he intends to be the king. Finally, the film condemns hedonism, as the misfit meerkat and warthog comic reliefs Timon and Pumbaa, while depicted as genuinely heroic at times, engage in a philosophy of "Hakuna Matata" ("No Worries" in Swahili), which is shown overall to be negative.

In addition, the film proved to be a massive runaway hit despite having a completely new production team working on it due to then-Disney Chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg believing it to end up a flop due to it featuring "talking animals" while he thought the Worst Liberal Movie ''Pocahontas'', which he helmed with the usual production team, would be the financial hit and Oscar winner (in reality, ''Pocahontas'' got mixed reviews and did fairly badly at the box office).

The movie spawned two direct-to-video sequels and two TV series, as well as a Broadway musical that retained much of the same themes as the movie. A photorealistic remake was released in July 2019, directed by Jon Favreau due to his success with the 2016 remake of ''The Jungle Book''.

|''The Little Mermaid''
|1989
|G
|An adaptation of Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tale of the same name, it was about a mermaid strives to become a traditional female human, following the patriarchal system of society. It also promotes the concept of [[assimilation]], as the mermaid: Ariel when becoming human intended to adopt the culture of the humans upon doing so. The film centers around conservative Christian values and contains an anti-feminism theme. Ariel is shown to be the antithesis of a modern feminist. The villain Ursula is shown in a devilish and beastly way (appearing as half-woman, half-octopus), and her claims about men not wanting women who talk and care only for a woman's body language (a common claim by [[feminism|feminists]] against males) is made clear to be lies. On a similar note, it also has an implicit anti-homosexuality theme, as Ursula's overall design was derived largely from the infamous drag queen Divine. In addition, it also contains a pro-traditional marriage theme and is the last Disney animated feature film to actually treat traditional marriage in a positive light for a good while.

Despite being set under the sea, it also features an anti-[[Environmentalism]] and anti-racism message, as the characters (namely King Triton) who pushed anti-human sentiments turned out to be wrong in their negative views on humans. Although often ignored by liberal reviewers complaints about the movie (some of whom also adhered to the feminist ideology and thus falsely implied that Ariel solely wanted to become human because of Eric, which led directly to promoting the feminist agenda in ''Beauty and the Beast''.<ref name="Woolverton and Belle" />), it was also pro-family, as during her deal with Ursula, Ariel was explicitly hesitant to undergo the deal citing that, regardless of which way the deal goes, she won't see her father and sisters again. King Triton, after destroying Ariel's grotto in a fit of anger, is clearly shown afterward to be immensely remorseful of his actions after it became apparent that Ariel fled from him as a result, and later tries to save Ariel after learning about Ursula's role in her disappearance and even opts to sacrifice himself to ensure Ariel's (and, implied via dialogue regarding Ursula shortly afterward, her sisters') safety, and Ariel upon witnessing Triton being cursed by Ursula, immediately attempts to avenge him by attacking Ursula.

It also shows a perfect allegory towards liberalism's deceit and cheating to ensure success and its unwillingness to keep its word, as well as the promotion of character integrity and doing things fair and square, as when Ariel seemed to have failed at gaining Eric's love, she makes absolutely no attempt at stopping the marriage until after learning that his "bride", Vanessa (in reality, Ursula in disguise), had in fact brainwashed Prince Eric and that he didn't choose to marry her, with it being implied that Ursula violated her end of the deal when she did that action, and even when she does in fact fail, Ariel makes absolutely no effort to resist Ursula's dragging her away. Likewise, Ursula, besides her blatant interference with the deal by disguising herself as Vanessa and brainwashing Eric, also arranged to have Flotsam and Jetsam overturn Eric and Ariel's boat specifically to ensure that Eric and Ariel couldn't kiss when it looked like Ariel could in fact win her end of the deal fair and square, and after she curses Triton and Ariel attempts to attack Ursula in retaliation, Ursula heavily implies before Eric saved Ariel that she's going to kill the latter despite having promised to not harm Ariel.

The movie's box office success also led directly to a rejuvenation in Disney's animated features called the Disney Renaissance, and the film also had a prequel TV series carrying much of the same themes airing on CBS and later on the Disney Channel from 1992 to 1994, as well as two comic book series by Disney Comics and Marvel that carried many of the same themes, and a sequel and prequel film that, although overall promoting many of the same themes, had questionable production quality. A live-action remake is currently in production.

It also promotes the idea of self-worth and how the circumstances of one's birth don't matter so much as they try to push good, with Mewtwo ultimately being reformed upon learning this message. It also has an anti-cloning message, due to Mewtwo's aforementioned disturbance at his origins.

At the end of the cartoon, Reason and Emotion come to an agreement to balance things out: Reason's job is to think, plan, and discriminate, while Emotion's job is to be a fine, strong emotion that loves his country, freedom, and life. On a related note, the reference to Hitler and his being condemned for destroying reason and logic also acts as more evidence that in spite of various leftist claims post-mortem, Walt Disney was never a Nazi supporter.

It also promotes the concept of the American Dream as well as capitalism, as the main protagonist dreams of becoming an inventor like Bigweld (who is depicted in a similar manner to Walt Disney) and also left to try and get his family to have a greater opportunity. It also manages to condemn corporate corruption without advocating for more government control or demonizing Capitalism, as while the new management of Bigweld industries was shown to be extensively corrupt and cynical, Bigweld himself, as well as the company that it originally stood for, was painted in a very positive light.

|''The Secret of NIMH''
|1982
|G
|This family-friendly film includes Mrs Brisby, who is a widowed mouse. She lives on a farm owned by a man named Fitzgibbons. She and her 4 children, Martin, Theresa, Cynthia and Timmy live in a cinderblock in one of Fitzgibbons' fields. Every year, before Fitzgibbons plows the field to plant his crops, the family moves to their summer home to avoid the tractor. Nearby is another mouse, Dr Ages, who is the family doctor. Brisby visits Ages to get a remedy for Timmy, who has come down with pneumonia, potentially delaying the summer move. Fitzgibbons decides one day to begin plowing the field early. Brisby desperately tries to disable the farmer's tractor and freezes while climbing up the mechanism. Auntie Shrew intervenes and pulls out the tractor's gas line, halting the machine. While Mrs Brisby sobs over her predicament, Auntie tells her to be braver for her family's sake and suggests she visit the Great Owl, the wisest creature in the forest. Brisby is hesitant, since owls eat mice, but she goes. With the help of a new found friend, Jeremy, a crow hoping to meet Miss Right, and whom Mrs Brisby untangled from a pile of string he was trapped in, she meets with the fearsome owl, who merely tells her that she must move her family. Mrs Brisby explains the complication with her son Timmy and the owl tells her he has no solution. As he leaves, he learns her last name and becomes more helpful because her husband, Jonathan, was well known and respected throughout the woods. The Owl tells Mrs Brisby to go to the colony of rats that live in the farmer's rose bush and ask them for help. He specifically tells her to have the rats move her house to "the lee of the stone", the protected side of a large rock in the field that Fitzgibbons avoids when plowing. Mrs Brisby sneaks into the rose bush and finds that the rats have built a very modern colony that makes use of electricity that they pilfer from Fitzgibbons. She also meets Dr Ages there, whom at first tells her the rose bush is off-limits but is astonished that she had met with the Great Owl and lived. They are discovered by the rats' captain of the guard, Justin, who takes them to the rats' Senate room. As they enter, a charismatic rat, Jenner, is railing to the council about the plan of the rats' leader, Nicodemus, who wants to abandon the rose bush and move to a location called Thorn Valley where they'll found a new colony based on their own labors, rather than stealing supplies from the farmer. Jenner is opposed to the idea and even suggest that they wage war against any humans who attempt to drive them out. Justin and Ages make Mrs Brisby's case to the council, who agree to the request because she is Jonathan Brisby's wife. In a sinister private meeting with his associate, Sullivan, Jenner plots to have Nicodemus killed during the operation and make it look accidental. Justin takes Mrs Brisby to meet with Nicodemus. A very old, kind and wise leader, he tells Mrs Brisby the rats' history: they were all lab animals imprisoned in NIMH, the National Institutes of Mental Health. Injected with experimental compounds, the rats developed intelligent brains and were able to escape their cages, along with several mice including Jonathan and Mr Ages. During their escape, all but two of the mice, Johnathan and Mr Ages, were sucked into the ventilation system by strong air gusts. When the party were trapped by a vent grating, Jonathan was small enough to crawl through and open the grate. The rats subsequently owed Jonathan their lives and he continued to work with them while they built their colony. Some months prior to Mrs Brisby's visit to the rose bush, Jonathan had been killed by Fitzgibbons' ornery and fearsome cat, Dragon, whom the rats had been trying to drug. Nicodemus gives Brisby a large red amulet and tells her that it has great supernatural powers when someone shows true courage of the heart. Nicodemus says that the rats will be happy to repay their life debt to Jonathan's family and will move her home. For the operation to succeed, Dragon will have to be drugged. Mrs Brisby, feeling she should participate, volunteers to spike Dragon's feeding dish. The only way into Fitzgibbons' kitchen is through a small hole under a sideboard, a hole too small for any rat. The plan goes well until Mrs Brisby runs back and is trapped by Fitzgibbons' son. Justin leaves her, having to supervise the operation, promising to come back for her. While she's trapped in a bird cage, Brisby overhears Fitzgibbons on the phone with NIMH, who want to come to his farm and capture the rats. Brisby realizes the situation is now more desperate and escapes the bird cage by knocking out its small water cup. At the site of the Brisby home, the rats have constructed an elaborate system of ropes and blocks and tackles to lift the cinderblock. While the block is being swung towards the stone, Jenner cuts the anchoring lines with his sword and the block falls, narrowly missing Nicodemus, however, the heavy gears and rope fall on him, killing him. Jenner declares the operation a failure and suggests they leave when Mrs Brisby arrives. Justin tells her that her family is alive but Nicodemus is dead. She suddenly remembers her urgent news that NIMH will be at the farm tomorrow and tells the rats they must leave tonight. Jenner refuses to believe her and tells the rats that he will take over leadership of the colony. When Mrs Brisby insists she's telling the truth, Jenner strikes her and notices that she's wearing the amulet. Attempting to seize it from her, Justin intervenes and fights with Jenner until he wounds him. Jenner admits that he'd caused the accident that killed Nicodemus, saying that the plan to move the colony would fail. As he moves in to kill Justin, Sullivan kills Jenner with a thrown dagger and succumbs to his own wound, inflicted by Jenner himself when he'd given his own sword to Justin during the fight. Moments later, Mrs Brisby sees that her house has begun to sink into the mud, taking her children with it. A futile attempt to rig a new roping system fails and Brisby herself vainly pulls at the remaining ropes as the house sinks under the surface. Justin rescues her, holding her back. As she looks on in horror, the amulet suddenly bursts from the mud, brightly glowing, and places itself around her neck. Using the power that Nicodemus spoke of, she raises the house from the mud and moves it to the lee side of the stone. Brisby's children are safe and she faints from exhaustion. The next morning, with Timmy on the mend from his pneumonia and the now-abandoned rose bush being inspected by NIMH, Jeremy arrives with mounds of string that he'd been collecting to build a love nest and finds the Brisby home already moved and even camouflaged by the natural vegetation. He asks Brisby for the amulet, however, she'd given it to Justin before they'd left the rose bush. While he laments that he wasn't able to help move the house, a female crow suddenly flies into him. The two become immediately infatuated. While Brisby's daughter wraps her mother's hands which were burned by the amulet, Auntie Shrew arrives for a visit, bringing groans from Martin as Jeremy and his new love fly off. This movie's interesting plot, and its complicated themes that are apparent are both entertaining for adults and kids alike. Although there are some references to violent themes, it does not paint them in good lighting and shows the harsh consequences. Because of their wide audience appeal, this movie was wildly successfully in movie theaters. The Secret of NIMH is considered to be one the best children's movies of the 20th century.

|''Sleeping Beauty''

|Paints evil in a very serious light in the form of Maleficent, and also showcases loyalty to family and duty in a positive light, as despite Aurora wanting to meet with the man she met in the woods, she ultimately honored her stepfamily in being returned to her birth family. Is also inherently anti-feminist in its messaging and for traditional marriage. It is also pro-family, as King Stefan and Queen Leah ultimately gave up their baby to protect her from the main villain, and the narration explicitly stated that the royal family and the kingdom awaited the day of her 16th birthday to allow her back into their family when the curse seemed to be averted. Unfortunately, it ended up being ruined in 2014 with a revisionist retelling starring the main villain and pushed the exact opposite messages in that film.

It is one of the few Disney films to date to feature an openly [[Christian]] princess: Snow White. In addition, as evidenced by the Evil Queen's overall character, it paints parental abuse, including attempted infanticide, in a very negative light.

|''Toy Story'' tetralogy
|1995, 1999, 2010, 2019
|G
|Altogether, the four films celebrate friendship and family unity, even if it focuses more on a figurative family with the boy Andy as a father-figure to his toys, who come alive in humans' absence and praise Andy for loving and playing with them as though they were his children.

In the first installment, the world's first computer-animated theatrical feature, pull-string cowboy doll Sheriff Woody grows jealous when science fiction hero action figure Buzz Lightyear, who initially believes he is a real space hero, becomes young Andy's favorite toy among the toy community. Woody's efforts to make himself Andy's favorite toy again cause both him and Buzz to be separated from their owner, but teamwork allows them to find their way back to Andy just before he and his family move to a new house. The film's overall development was especially notable due to then-Disney Animation chairman [[Jeffrey Katzenberg]] initially ordering for ''Toy Story'' to be made significantly more liberal in its values by being more "adult, cynical, [and] edgy". This included depicting Woody and the other toys in a significantly more mean-spirited light, with Woody going so far as to actually attempt to murder Buzz with no remorse whatsoever (instead of accidentally knocking Buzz out of the window, as he does in the final film). This caused Toy Story to be almost canceled and Pixar itself to be nearly shut down until the company was given a second chance.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2010/07/07/we-love-pixar-how-hollywood-cynicism-almost-ruined-toy-story-and-pixar/</ref>

In ''Toy Story 2'', while Andy is away at summer camp, Woody is stolen by a greedy toy collector and is tempted by the idea of being immortalized in a museum, only to be rescued by his friends and reminded of a toy's true purpose: for a child to play with it. Once again, the film positively portrays teamwork and family unity using a metaphor of unity between toys and their owners.

''Toy Story 3'' sees a nearly-grown Andy ready to leave for college and leave most of his toys except Woody in a garbage bag to be stored in his attic, but his mother mistakes it for a bag of real trash. Woody follows the toys as they make their way to a dreadful daycare center, unable to convince them of the misunderstanding. Nihilism and totalitarianism are portrayed in a strongly negative light in the form of Lotso the jealous teddy bear, who denounces all toys as being "destined for the scrapheap" and acts as a brutal dictator over the daycare toys.

''Toy Story 4'', the final movie in the series, shows Woody taking on a guardian role for Bonnie's newly-made toy, Forky. When Forky gets lost, Woody finds him and tries to take him back home, but they end up at a carnival. There, Woody reunites with his lost love Bo Beep (who had been absent from the third movie and had run away) and has to make a choice: stay with Bo Peep at the carnival, or stick with his friends and Bonnie. Like with the other three films, this film shows family, friendship, and teamwork in a positive light.

|''Up''
|2009
|PG
|This tear-jerking, pro-family Pixar animation stars Carl Fredricksen, an elderly widower balloon salesman who is about to be forced off his land but refuses to sell his house (likely promoting individualism triumphing over a liberal collectivist government). Carl ties thousands of balloons to his house and sets off on the South American vacation that he promised his wife Ellie while she was still alive, showing the inherent sacredness of marriage and how it should be continuously honored even after a spouse dies. In the end, he adopts young Russell, a fatherless Wilderness Explorer (a spoof of the Boy Scouts) who joins him on his adventure, as his surrogate grandson, which celebrates family unity. The film takes a light jab at divorce, too, as it is implied that Russell's parents no longer live together, leaving the boy heartbroken until Carl adopts him. Lastly, an overarching theme of the film states that a person is never too old or too young to follow his or her dreams.

|''Wreck-It Ralph''

|PG
|Ralph, a villain from a retro, 1980s-esque video game who wants to escape after being typecast for about 30 years as the poor and medal-less guy, is encouraged to use his equal opportunities to do better and pursue his own successes. This is the basis of the American Dream: the goal of overcoming one's present, lowly circumstances to achieve a state of greatness. Trying to achieving this goal by theft is shown as the wrong way to do so. In addition, the main antagonist is a competition-hating villain who has deceitfully hidden his true identity and origin, who has pushed liberal values in the video game where he rules and established what looks like a fixed economy because only he can win. The film also pushes anti-illegal immigrant messages as well, with the main villain and minor villains trying to take over other worlds.

It promotes the American Dream, individuality, racial equality, and subtle Christian values such as forgiveness and reconciliation, as well as responsible capitalism. Despite having a brief appearance by a homosexual couple, they're only very, ''very'' minor characters, and the movie largely downplays their sinful beliefs about their sexuality. It won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature of 2016.

Also takes down the various liberal critiques that occurred. Aside from the obvious condemnations against Clinton and his followers, it also has a brief criticism of Obama for repeating several falsehoods about how they stopped the terrorists responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center attack (in particular, claiming they just arrested the terrorists and treated them to a court of law like any other criminal).

It also makes clear the racism that motivated the latter had direct roots to the Progressive movement of the United States and by extension, the Democrat Party, and that the conventional wisdom of Fascism was of the right-wing of politics was one of the left's biggest lies and that fascism if anything was of the left. On a similar note, it also makes clear the connection between Mussolini's fascism and Marxism, and also indicates that the issue of slavery was another form of socialism. Also makes clear that the white supremacist founder of the alt-Right [[Richard Spencer]] and the Charlottesville Rally organizer [[Jason Kessler]] had in fact been left-wingers posing as right-wingers. Similarly it also makes clear that Antifa and George Soros, despite claiming they were "anti-Fascist", were in fact fascists (also exposing the latter's role in the confiscation of objects held by his neighbors by the Nazis). As implied by the title, it also compares the turbulent times that was orchestrated by the left after Donald Trump was elected to the events of the Civil War under Lincoln.

|On the one hand, the strong and courageous U.S. President James Marshall (Harrison Ford), a military veteran, takes an uncompromising stance against Russian terrorists who hijack his airplane. The major themes include family, authority, respect for the military, and sacrifice for the greater good. On the other hand, however, the script-writer for the film has admitted that he made the film largely to promote then-president [[Bill Clinton]].<ref>https://www.salon.com/july97/entertainment/movieair970725.html "But Bill Clinton is the first president to spawn movies that feature fictional presidents functioning as his stand-ins, movies made by directors fighting to define, and redefine, his image.....Air Force One" is a fantasy of what it might take for President Clinton to become all things to all people. The movie's Clinton stand-in, President James Marshall (Harrison Ford, appropriately displaying the facial mobility of Mount Rushmore), is a leader who defies his timid advisors in his efforts to set policies against injustice and tyranny and is willing to take on Congress to enforce those policies. But this is a fantasy designed to silence Clinton's conservative critics, so not only is Jim Marshall a dedicated family man, but he's a Vietnam War hero to boot. There's a combo you can't beat, a guy who knows how to kill a Commie and keep his pecker in his pocket."</ref> In addition, Bill Clinton also had a direct role in the casting of at least one of the characters, as Glenn Close had reluctantly played the role of the movie's Vice President at the latter's request.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20060319090508/http://vikingphoenix.com/news/archives/1997/hdot9702.htm/</ref>

|''Aladdin''
|1992
|G
|Based on the classic Arabian folk tale ''Aladdin and the Magic Lamp'', a poor but charitable thief is sent by Jafar, a sinister vizier to a sultan, to search for a mysterious oil lamp rumored to contain unbelievably powerful magic. Upon finding this, he accidentally releases the comical genie inside, who grants his wish to become a prince so he can legally court Jasmine, the sultan's daughter. On the one hand, the film is set within what is implied to be a Muslim state, and Aladdin does resort to lying to try and marry Jasmine. A slight feminist bent is present because Jasmine refuses to marry, ignoring the law requiring it (although not nearly to the same extent as with Belle and ''Beauty and the Beast''.). In addition, some lyrics to the opening song were notably cut due to fears of offending the Muslim populace, implying the film is politically correct in nature. The Sultan is shown to be a massive bumbler and overgrown child, which may hint at an anti-parenthood agenda. But on the other hand, the film does ultimately push character integrity because Aladdin ultimately decides against lying and tells Jasmine the truth about himself. Disregarding the film's politically correct treatment of Islam, it ultimately showcases some more negative elements of Islamic culture via a vendor nearly chopping Jasmine's hand off when she "steals" some food to feed a starving child, as well as depicting Prince Achmed in a very negative light via his cruelty to Aladdin and children attempting to stop him. The prince is implied to be a poor example of a husband, so it is subtly implied that Jasmine refused to marry because all the princes she encountered had in fact been as bad as Achmed. She then falls for Aladdin because he saves her life and shows kindness to her. In addition, it is made clear that while Aladdin does steal and initially had an infamous reputation for his thefts, it's solely in order to survive on the streets, with it being heavily implied that he was an orphan, and he also selflessly gives his stolen food to starving children after initially planning to eat it. There is a lesser condemnation against the occult as the only explicit magic-user besides Aladdin's Genie is Jafar, the main villain who dreams of becoming the world's most powerful dark sorcerer.

The theft of the crystal to become rich could be seen as a condemnation of capitalism. That being said, however, capitalism has also been promoted in a more positive light in the form of Preston B. Whitmore, an eccentric but ultimately good-hearted billionaire who funded the expedition in the first place, and in addition, most of the principal cast was shown to have dreams of getting a better lot in society, with it being heavily implied in the ending that they ultimately succeeded in achieving those dreams after selflessly trying to save Atlantis, which acts as an implicit promotion of both capitalism and the American Dream.

|''Austin Powers'' franchise
|1997, 1999, 2002
|PG-13
|A series of films that parodied spy films such as the [[James Bond]] franchise. On the one hand, liberal values are promoted such as Austin Power's promiscuous swinger nature being promoted as a positive, as well as usage of scatological humor throughout. In addition, one of the villains, Frau Farbissina, is mentioned to have been a founder of the militant faction of the Christian organization [[The Salvation Army]]. The first film also downplays the Cold War and the death of Communism by mentioning that the 1980s were among the "unimportant decades" in Austin Power's crash course. On the other hand, it does promote some chivalrous aspects, as Austin in the first film made it very clear to Vanessa Kinsington, the daughter of his former partner that not even he was willing to have sex with a woman who had too much to drink, and there is an implicit promotion of [[Gay Conversion Therapy]], as Farbissina was established as a lesbian in the second movie, yet after sleeping with Dr. Evil (a parody of [[Ernst Stavro Blofeld]], in particular the version from ''[[You Only Live Twice (film, 1967)|You Only Live Twice]]'' portrayed by Donald Pleasance.) in the past, she ended up becoming pregnant (with Scott Evil, Dr. Evil's son, being the byproduct of the affair), and it is implied afterward as well as in the third movie ''Goldmember'' that she became straight afterward and genuinely loved Dr. Evil, enjoying a kiss that with him that was otherwise meant to slip a key to him to aid in his escape. Family values are also given a slight promotion, as Farbissina defended Scott Evil from Dr. Evil's otherwise abusive actions to him, and part of the third movie involved Scott and Dr. Evil growing closer to their relationship, and it is also revealed that Dr. Evil was in fact Austin's brother, leading to some redemption for the latter, and the third movie makes clear that some of Austin's problems were the result of his father Nigel being a neglectful father. The second movie also has an anti-body positive message as well with Fat [censored].

|''Back to the Future''
|1985
|PG
|Musically gifted but slacking highschooler Marty McFly is invited by his energetic, quirky scientist friend Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown to witness the birth of his greatest invention: a time-traveling DeLorean automobile. After Doc Brown is shot and killed by Libyan terrorists, whom he tricked to gain plutonium fuel needed to make his car travel through time, Marty escapes in the DeLorean and travels 30 years into the past, where he meets his parents as teenagers and accidentally becomes his mother Lorraine's new love interest. He then meets with the young Doc Brown, who volunteers to help him return to 1985 and warns him that he will cease to exist if he does not ensure that his parents fall in love at their high school prom. Marty ultimately succeeds in reuniting his future parents by encouraging his teenage father George to stand up to bully Biff Tannen in Lorraine's honor. In the process, he saves Doc Brown by sending him a note warning of the terrorist attack. Overall, the movie contains some conservative messages such as the triumph of chivalry, the evils of terrorism, and the negative effects of deviancy and drug/alcohol addiction. At the same time, it promotes premarital sexual activity and disregard for chastity. Included two sequels in 1989 and 1990.

|Bambi
|1942
|G
|Animated adaptation of the German children's book of the same name. Environmental and anti-hunting messages are pushed (although it should be noted that the main antagonist, "Man", is technically closer to a poacher than a true hunter due to his killing a nursing doe and also trying to kill Bambi, a fawn, both of which are strictly prohibited by hunters), but it is also pro-family due to Bambi's mother giving her life to save her son, and the Great Forest Prince, who is heavily implied to be Bambi's father, went out of his way to protect Bambi from the hunter three times, even rescuing his son from a forest fire. It also was anti-homosexual agenda and way ahead of its time in refuting claims of [[animal homosexuality]], as the character Flower, a skunk, is depicted in childhood as a very effeminate male, yet when he became an adult, he evidently was aroused by a female skunk and ultimately became a father as well.

|PG-13
|An animated two-part adaptation of Frank Millar's comic book Elseworld story of the same name where Batman is forced to resume his duties after crime reached record highs in Gotham. The movie is anti-Crime, and also depicts homosexuality and sexual deviancy in a very negative light, including making a connection between homosexuality and Nazis via a transgendered Nazi criminal, and the Joker is portrayed in a similar manner to Paul Lynde. It also mocks to a certain degree anti-war politicians, as the mayor (a likely democrat) attempts to negotiate with the Mutant leader in jail to get him to call off the Mutants' war on Gotham only to have his throat torn out, with his vice-mayor repeating the same concessions. On the same note, it also showcases the negatives of pseudo-sciences as a psychologist was depicted as being a quack who ended up making Two-Face's insanity even worse despite repairing his face, and was ultimately responsible for letting the Joker escape Arkham Asylum due to the latter faking being cured. That all being said, however, it does feature some anti-Reagan messaging, and also condemns the military due to Joker trying to instigate a nuclear war between America and the Soviets, and America striking first as a result, and it was also revealed that a military general had provided the mutant gang with enough military arms to start a small war.

|''Beauty and the Beast''
|1991
|G
|A young woman overcomes a shallow society and finds true love. Although by comparison a powerful and immensely popular antidote to [[feminism]] to the [[liberal]] movies churned out by [[Disney]] since, as well as overall promoting redemption (as seen with the Beast's transformation), and also promoting some family values (such as Belle being loyal to her father), there were a few hints at feminist propaganda at the beginning of the film, such as Belle being different from the villagers because she can read, which is implied to not be supported by the villagers at all (feminist propaganda often falsely claims that women couldn't get an education until the 1960s), as well as Belle being unwilling to hold the role of housewife for Gaston or raising children, and later her blaming the titular Beast for her fleeing the castle despite most of the events leading up to and after that event being largely her fault (specifically, her deliberate disobedience towards Beast and the servants by going into the West Wing as soon as she found out where it was located) and the story framing that as being a good thing she did. On a related note, a scene that had Belle baking a cake for her father when he got home ended up cut at the order of Linda Woolverton, with her reason specifically being because "a liberated woman [like Belle] wouldn't know how to bake," essentially implying that baking would have been the activity of non-liberated women, a typical statement by feminists.<ref name="Woolverton and Belle">https://www.mouseplanet.com/8500/Linda_Woolverton_and_Belle</ref><ref>https://www.yahoo.com/news/belle-beauty-beast-became-disneys-155053182.html</ref> In addition, the opening song and the reprise has Belle having a similar "smarter-than-thou" personality that is all too common among liberals, having her refer to the villagers derogatorily as "little people" in the beginning of the opening song, repeatedly stressing the "provincial" elements of the village when expressing her desire to leave the village, complaining about Gaston due to considering him "boorish and brainless" shortly after his failed proposal, and also dismissing the villagers as "they" when mentioning her goals ("I want so much more than what ''they've'' got planned"). On that note, due to Beast being unwilling to even defend himself, let alone the castle servants, when the mob arrived to kill him until Belle had arrived at the last second, which had been the result of Belle's attempts at civilizing Beast, it gives the implication that the ideal male in the film is not allowed to get angry or act violently even in self-defense unless a woman was physically present. Then-Disney Chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg also mentioned that he wanted "a feminist twist" on the original fairy tale by creating a heroine who is "a departure from typical Disney female characters",<ref>http://articles.mcall.com/1991-11-22/features/2825583_1_beast-s-castle-fairy-tale-madame-gabrielle</ref> which had partly been done in response to negative criticisms towards Ariel in the previous movie by liberal critics,<ref name="Woolverton and Belle" /> and the feminist writer [[Linda Woolverton]] made clear that she made Belle a feminist and based her on the women's liberation movement from the 1970s in order to avoid creating another insipid princess.<ref name="Beauty and Maleficent">{{Cite web|url = http://time.com/2798136/maleficent-beauty-beast-writer/|title = The Same Woman Wrote Maleficent and Beauty and the Beast—Here’s How They’re Linked|date = May 30, 2014|accessdate = January 16, 2014|website = Time|publisher = |last = Rothman|first = Lily}}</ref><ref>http://www.ew.com/article/2016/05/26/linda-woolverton-alice-belle-disney-heroines?xid=entertainment-weekly_socialflow_twitter</ref><ref>https://www.bustle.com/articles/163686-the-one-thing-beauty-and-the-beast-fans-probably-dont-know-about-the-creation-of-belle</ref><ref>http://www.mouseplanet.com/8500/Linda_Woolverton_and_Belle</ref><ref>http://articles.latimes.com/1992-01-19/entertainment/ca-544_1_disney-film</ref> On that note, this made it the first ''Disney'' animated adaptation of a fairy tale to radically alter the story specifically to promote a left-wing socio-political agenda onto the audience regardless of whether such was actually appropriate for the audience or an actual good message (as prior Disney films generally made alterations specifically to tone down anything that was otherwise inappropriate for the age group for the audience). Gaston is a conservative and hardworking hunter who is considered by the villagers to be their town hero, but is shown to be the main villain of the movie (it should also be noted that in the original screenplay for the film, Gaston was intended to be a Marquess [French nobleman], meaning the decision to make him a conservative and hardworking hunter was made after a rewrite). In addition, although not to the same degree as other Disney films that came after it, the film also has a slight anti-Christian bent, as the villagers (strongly implied by various verses in the opening song and the mob song, as well as a failed wedding, to be practicing and devout Christians) were later briefly seen supporting a plan that went against God's teachings, as well as overall depicted as being idiots, while Belle, the character framed as an intellectual and a moral figure, is not even seen or even implied to believe in God at all. In addition, Belle's love for Beast (where it is implied that she was largely unaware of the Beast being formerly a human prince) could be seen as promoting bestiality. Also, it is the first Disney movie to neither show nor hint at the two love interests getting married, and in fact, the only "wedding" in the film was the one Belle ruined, creating negative implications about marriage as a result, as well as starting a string of movies that don't paint marriage in a positive light. Similarly, the only three females in the film who are implicitly supportive of marriage and Christianity are demeaned, depicted as dumb blondes with the script and credits explicitly referring to them derogatorily as "the bimbettes." There was also a slight anti-hunting and anti-second amendment sentiment in the film, due to the main villain, as aforementioned, explicitly being labelled as a hunter, as well as Gaston's villainous nature being first highlighted in his debut scene where he shot a duck out of the sky. According to Don Hahn, there were also several overtones of a pro-homosexual agenda within the film, including choice lyrics of the mob song late into the film, largely because of the executive producer, Howard Ashman, being homosexual and dying from AIDS at the time the film was made and wanting to push the idea of being "ostracized" for his suffering from AIDS.<ref>https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/03/beauty-and-the-beast-gay-lefou-howard-ashman</ref><ref>https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/16583/don-Hahn-interview-beauty-and-the-beast-howard-Ashman-the-lion-king-south-park-and-frankenweenie</ref> Similarly, during the battle in the castle, there was a brief instance of transgenderism that was treated as a joke where the wardrobe proceeded to dress one of the male villagers in a Hawaiian outfit. One of the protagonistic characters, Lumiere, is briefly seen making out with a featherduster and was implied that the two weren't married, with some hints at Lumiere being an unrepentant womanizer (with the implication being further increased in the Special Edition-exclusive song "Human Again" where Lumiere mentioned he had a "mademoiselle in each arm", would be "courting again, chic and sporting again", and Mrs. Potts interjecting "Which should cause several husbands alarm." with Lumiere laughing at this, heavily implying that Lumiere was an adulterer to married women). In addition, Maurice is depicted as slightly addled and eccentric, as well as being naïve (such as thinking Gaston was a good match for Belle despite the story making clear he wasn't), and while he does try to go out of his way to save Belle in the midway point of the film, he ultimately needs saving twice and is unable to save Belle at all, which makes it debatable as to just how pro-family the narrative actually was. In addition, some elements of the film were later reused in the [[Essay:Worst Liberal Movies#Social|definitely liberal]] ''Maleficent'' movie.<ref name="Beauty and Maleficent" />

|''Beauty and the Beast'' (2017 remake)
|2017
|PG
|On the one hand, the 2017 film version of ''Beauty and the Beast'' is the latest in the film trend of needlessly and shamelessly remaking animated films or children's stories for the sake of earning quick revenue in the dying Hollywood studio system. Liberals also seized the opportunity with the remake to exploit diversity within the ''Beauty and the Beast'' universe. The final result of the diversity inclusion is that it feels self-congratulatory in the sense of putting it in for the sake of having it, rather than having it be just a part of the story and the film. One notable example is the filmmakers' decision to make LeFou, Gaston's diminutive and bumbling sidekick, a homosexual who is conflicted with his feelings for Gaston (although it should be noted that in the actual script, it never specifies that LeFou was homosexual.<ref>https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/entertainthis/2017/03/03/josh-gad-lefou-beauty-and-the-beast/98679284/</ref>). At the end of the film, LeFou is shown taking a romantic interest in a musketeer who is now a transgender woman after being transformed into one during Gaston's siege of the Beast's castle (who, unlike the original film, actually enjoys it). Not only is it an atrocious artistic decision of the filmmakers to needlessly incorporate diversity simply for the sake of it, but the 2017 film version of ''Beauty and the Beast'' also serves as an example that liberals can legitimately shoehorn the [[homosexual agenda]] into Disney films. Adding salt to the wound, the filmmakers also further changed history to suit their feminist agenda, similar to previous Disney films like ''Mulan'' (1998), ''Pocahontas'' (1995) and ''The Princess and the Frog'' (2009) (most infamously, the villagers are shown to be explicitly intolerant of Belle learning how to read and teaching girls to do the same, smashing her washing machine in the process, despite the fact that the namesake for the village in this film, Mdm. Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, the original author for the fairy tale, was herself a woman). The 2017 film version of ''Beauty and the Beast'' is now even more of a feminist propaganda film than the 1991 animated film version ever was. There were also hints at an anti-war message due to Gaston being turned into a war veteran, in addition to the implied anti-hunting messages from the original film via his profession (which if anything was expanded on by their hinting at Gaston being evil in the Gaston song when he, in reference to LeFou's question about whether shooting his prey from behind was "fair", states he didn't care if it was, even though killing prey when they least expect it is the entire point behind hunting, which was based on a deleted lyric from one of the earlier drafts of what would become the 1991 film.).

All of that, along with the other shortcomings of the film, reinforces the statement that most of Hollywood is currently out of ideas for motion pictures. It also re-establishes the fact that Disney would, at times, forsake genuine family entertainment in favor of blatant liberal propaganda.

On the other hand, there were also several surprisingly Conservative messages in the film, significantly more than in the 1991 version. Namely, Christianity is treated in a far more positive light in this film than in the 1991 version as one of the few friends Belle has in this version is the village Chaplain named Pere Robert who is shown to be sympathetic to her bibliophilic nature and also attempts to prevent Maurice from being sent to the Asylum, and later is shown to be horrified at the formation of the mob against the Beast (it is to be noted that in the original 1991 film, the character in question was merely a bookseller, not a priest, and most of the villagers, implied to be devout Christians, were demonized in the film), which was also surprisingly accurate to history despite the aforementioned changing of history in the film (in real history, Christianity, especially the Catholic Church, actively encouraged literacy, writing, and arithmetic among both genders, with girls being taught in convents or at the home.). In addition, Maurice actually is shown to be more proactive in this film, such as directly refusing Gaston's attempt at marrying Belle and even attempting to expose Gaston as an attempted murderer and psychopath, and also plays a direct role in saving Belle and himself from the paddywagon after she exposes Beast to the villagers (in the original film, although he does set out to try and find Belle and save her after trying to get the villagers to help failed, he ultimately required saving by her due to catching an illness during his trek, and ultimately needed saving alongside Belle via Chip). In addition, Lumiere as well as the featherduster (named Plumette in this version) are shown to be an actual loving couple (in the original film, it is heavily implied that Lumiere was a frequent womanizer and that the featherduster was also sexually loose), and the remake also doesn't demonize traditional marriage nearly as much as in the 1991 version (notably, the remake cut out Gaston's wedding proposal as well as Belle shoving Gaston into mud in front of attendees). The forgiveness and redemption theme was also significantly more emphasized in the remake, due to Beast ultimately forgiving Maurice after learning why he had tried to steal the rose and even allowing Belle to save Maurice specifically to make up for his past behavior, with Maurice also forgiving Beast upon Belle showing him the baby rattle (originally, Maurice was a bit more hesitant to forgive the Beast). It is also shown to be significantly more pro-family as well, as not only is Belle shown to be loyal to her father like in the 1991 original, but as noted above, Maurice himself took measures to protect Belle and notably agreed with Belle that Gaston would not have worked out for her (originally, Maurice also thought Gaston was alright for her), and he also was shown to be very protective of Belle after his wife had died from the plague, with Belle's mom specifically sacrificing herself by telling them to leave her behind to allow Belle a healthy life. In addition, the triplets (renamed to "Village Lasses") in the remake were depicted as having haughtiness, arrogance, being jealous of Belle, as well as overall being nasty people, including briefly smirking at Belle when she was locked up in the paddywagon as well as being actively involved in the arrest of Maurice as well as the later attack on Beast's castle (in the original film, the triplets were not shown to have any negative behavior to them besides their crushing on Gaston [not participating in the later arrest of Maurice, let alone the attack on Beast's castle shortly afterward during the climax, and also implying at one point that they were willing to give their blessing to Gaston marrying Belle when Belle refused him in the beginning of the film, and while they were present during the final lyrics for the Gaston reprise where Gaston explicitly divulged key details for his blackmail plan, the way it was framed could easily be interpreted as the triplets genuinely not knowing about the plan due to their absence from Maurice's arrival up to the scene where Gaston whispers the plan to LeFou.], and it is also heavily implied that they supported traditional marriage and were demeaned in the film by being referred to in the script as The Bimbettes and treated as dumb blondes for this reason). In addition, according to the film's director Bill Condon as well as one of the triplets' actresses, Rafaelle Cohen, the reason the triplets were intensely jealous and spiteful of Belle was because their mother neglected them while doting on Belle, showcasing the dangers of parental neglect. In addition, at least regarding Maurice, the villagers' actions to him were toned down, where their arresting him was simply due to their being tricked by Gaston into thinking he was a dangerous madman and not out of malicious intent (in the original film, it is heavily implied via the Gaston reprise that most, if not all of the villagers were in fact fully aware that Gaston knew, as did themselves, that Maurice was not actually dangerous and that Gaston was having him arrested specifically to blackmail Belle into marrying him and gave full support to the plan.).

The film likewise was also deliberately named after D.W. Griffith's film of the same name in a form of irony due to it pushing the opposite message.

|''Bohemian Rhapsody''
|2018
|PG-13
|A biopic of [[Freddie Mercury]], the lead singer of the band Queen. While it does show elements of the practice of homosexuality and hedonism, at the same time, the film largely condemned the practice since it was made clear that Mercury's embracing of these things was what ultimately ruined Queen and his personal relationships, and is what ultimately killed him via AIDS. In addition, Paul Prenter, the only other major character to embrace homosexuality in the movie, was depicted in a very negative light, as he was one of the reasons Mercury went down a bad path, with it being made clear later on that Paul largely was using Mercury for his own gratification, blamed others for his bad ideas, and even hid vital information from Mercury deliberately such as the Live Aid concert plans as well as Mary Austin calling him. It also had a promotion of redemption, as Mercury, inspired largely by his former girlfriend/wife, Mary Austin nearing the end of the film, attempts to reconnect with his band and family and make amends in the time he had left before dying from AIDS. That all being said, however, it's debatable whether the film intended to paint his homosexual escapades in a negative light, as several members of the production company, including Freddie Mercury's actor Rami Malek, indicated that it was a "regrettable" decision as a result of not having enough time to give a "more balanced" view of (ie, promoting) his bisexual lifestyle.

|''The Iron Giant''
|1999
|PG
|This animation espouses anti-war themes and also brief but strong anti-hunting sentiments. Firearms in general are shown in a negative light, with the phrase "guns kill" being repeated a total of three times (which was considered a "positive message" by the ultra-liberal media watchdog group [[Common Sense Media]]). The titular giant is referred to as a "big gun that walks." From a conservative viewpoint, he is a poor metaphor for a real gun; unlike a law-abiding citizen who is a gun owner, the giant has no choice in his actions because he is a war machine programmed with the inability to use his weapons for good, but only to use them thoughtlessly and senselessly. The story involves him learning to hide his weapons and "not be a gun". The conclusion is that, in order to protect the public from an incoming missile, he must fly into it and kill himself rather than use his guns against it. As it is explained, "It's bad to kill, but it isn't bad to die." In addition, despite being set during the Cold War, it largely downplays the Soviet menace that was occurring during that time, as the main antagonist, Kent Mansley, is a government agent (implied to be part of the NSA) investigating the titular Iron Giant who at one point while launching a tirade against Hogarth Hughes alludes to the possibility that the Communists may have been responsible for the Giant's creation as a means to destroy America and that they must destroy it before "it destroys us" and is treated negatively for it. Also features some foul language.

That all being said, however, despite the definite anti-gun and anti-hunting themes, the film does portray the military in a fairly positive light, as General Rogarth was shown to be even-headed and only willing to use military force if confronted with evidence requiring for it, also making clear that he was not happy about bringing out an implied large military force for what was apparently a hoax, and while the military does try to attack the Iron Giant late into the film, it was only because they had been manipulated into doing so by Kent Mansley by the latter lying about the giant killing Hogarth Hughes, and only when confronted with evidence that Hogarth had in fact been alive did the military stand down. In addition, when Hogarth left to investigate the evidence of a "martian" taking out an antenna, he proceeded to salute a photograph of his father, who was implied to have died during World War II. Also has a positive portrayal of the American icon Superman in it. There's also an anti-materialist message in it as well as an implicitly Christian message, as Hogarth talks to the Giant about how humans and other forms of life possess souls that live on even after their mortal bodies die. In addition the film also promotes individualism, promoting the idea of the individual choosing how to live their life, which may also support the American Dream as well, as Dean the film's tritagonist is a capitalistic artist.

|''[[Iron Man (film, 2008)|Iron Man]]''

|PG-13
|The first installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe stars Robert Downey, Jr., as comic book hero Tony Stark, an initially unsympathetic, billionaire weapons developer with hedonistic habits such as alcoholism, extramarital sex, gambling, and drug use. A theme of redemption then follows when, on a tour in the Middle East, Stark is almost mortally wounded by the evil Islamic terrorist group the Ten Rings, inspiring Stark to turn his life around and build weapons for just causes, not solely for making money. Though he considers giving up weapons development altogether, Stark decides to stand by his Second Amendment rights and builds his first electromechanical suit of armor to escape the Ten Rings upon realizing that his supposed friend Obadiah Stane has been issuing guns to the terrorists behind his back. Overall, ''Iron Man'' teaches that capitalism and the military can be used for good. That being said, the aforementioned revelation that Obadiah Stane had been issuing weapons to the Ten Rings as well as orchestrating Stark's abduction by them earlier could be interpreted as subtle anti-War on Terror messaging.

|''Joker''
|2019
|R
|''Joker'' is the highest grossing R rated film of all time, and for good reasons. This revolutionary psychological crime thriller is a revisionist origin of the Joker (born in this universe as Arthur Fleck, although he is traditionally never given a proper name), a fictional supervillain and the archenemy of DC Comics superhero Batman, and his decent into a life of crime. It is difficult to watch and should not be shown to children but has deep messages that no Hollywood film will come close to replicating. Arthur never gets the mental help he needed and is constantly humiliated by people such as talk show host Murray Franklin, loosely based on Johnny Carson. That said, ''Joker'' is one of the only modern films to directly attack the mainstream media, and how it is responsible for causing chaos (Murray is played by Robert De Niro, a staunch leftist). It correctly shows that mental illness, not guns, can cause people to go insane and shoot people. Early on, Arthur is fired by his boss for carrying a gun while working as a children's party clown even though he was given the gun as a means for self-defense due to being assaulted earlier, which contributes to his further fall into madness. ''Joker'' goes even further to say that mental illness is tied directly to the media when Arthur directly confronts Murray on the set of his show, saying that he and the media only cause division and anger and that "It's enough to make anyone crazy!" Most liberal critics attacked ''Joker'', claiming it would cause people to commit mass shootings. This is expected since the film directly attacks the media, so the media is scared of people seeing ''Joker'' since it will expose their true intentions. However, some rioters who support Arthur in the film riot against the rich, and one of them slays Dr. Thomas and Martha Wayne, the wealthy parents of Bruce (the future Batman) near the end of the film; in contrast to traditional Batman stories, the Waynes are shown in a very negative light since Joker is a villain origin story. Interestingly enough, Arthur himself says that his actions are non-political: he only wants people to be civil and to get along with each other. The Joker is also nihilist, showing how nihilism is a very dangerous ideology. Furthermore, ''Joker'' depicts parental abuse and parental neglect in a very negative light. Arthur's mother Penny abused him throughout his childhood and claims Thomas Wayne is Arthur's father, who never helped raise him. Along with the media, she causes Arthur to descend into madness. It also attacks political correctness to a certain extent, as the director of the film made it clear he made the film partly in response to how comedy has been ruined by SJWs and political correctness.

The Director's Cut version of ''Kingdom of Heaven'' is a prime example of how a Director's Cut can significantly improve the entire film. While the theatrical version featured terrible screenwriting and directing (as a result of studio interference), the Director's Cut drastically changes the entire film, significantly fleshes out, ties together, and grounds the story and brings the characters, their motivations, the different themes at play and the world to life. While the theatrical version was seen more or less as pure liberal media, the Director's Cut presents a story about humanity, belief, faith, and God. It also makes a statement about how people of different religious faiths can live together in peace and harmony and also be respectful of different religious beliefs. In addition, it promotes honor, duty, and the importance of doing the right thing, and it also portrays the noble Knights Hospitallers in a positive light.

|R
|This fantastic film from (albeit, very liberal) director Quentin Tarantino, set in 1969 Los Angeles, is a love letter to the older and more conservative film industry. It portrays the main character's alcoholism as the main thing holding him back in his later years. It also shows that hard work always pays off in how successful the main character's career was. In addition to all this, the film's villains, real-life cult leader/criminal [[Charles Manson]] (who masterminded the Tate-LaBianca murders) and his "Family" (who carried out the murders), are [[hippie]]s. The movie shows hippies as they really are - brain-damaged from drug use and really gross in both appearance and personal habits - and it makes no attempt to humanize them. Despite all of this, it does contain historic revisionism, graphic violence (a hallmark of Tarantino movies), and gratuitous drug use (the latter of which is played for laughs and shown as fun and consequence-free, contrary to real life). This was the first film to be made by Tarantino after he broke ties with Bob and [[Harvey Weinstein]] following the latter's convictions for sexual assault, and was also the last film to feature actor Luke Perry prior to his death from a stroke in March 2019.

|Despite saying the F-word in almost every sentence, the film (surprisingly) has a pro-Christian message as after being shot at, every bullet misses mob hit men Jules Winnfield and Vincent Vega. Winnfield believes it was a divine intervention and message from God to stop his life of crime. His partner doesn't believe this but it's later proven to be true as he perished later on in the movie. Also has sadomasochistic homosexuals as the bad guys. And (sort of) has an anti-drug message as mob boss's girlfriend Mia Wallace is seen also overdosing (a negative side to drugs) on heroin.

|1977
|G
|The villain in this movie is a capitalist pawn shop owner, who wants a rare diamond to make her rich. To add insult to injury, the villains are Southerners. The United Nations is shown in a positive light. On the other hand, the main villain is also a feminist, and the main human protagonist is shown praying for not only herself (even she has been kidnapped) but for all the kids in the orphanage (who have not been kidnapped). This is one of the rare Disney films feature a [[Christian]] character that's treated in a positive light.

|''Recess: School's Out''
|2001
|G
|The animated movie of the cartoon series of the same name. On the one hand, the film implicitly promotes the decadent era of the 1960s (in particular, 1968) where it depicts characters Muriel Finster and Peter Prickly as hippies during their teacher training in a flashback, and also implies that the concept of recess was developed by the hippies. On the other hand, it also encourages at one point allowing children to act like children, and ultimately promotes Recess and Summer Vacation as a concept, and the main villain, Phillium Benedict, is a radical former head of the liberal Department of Education who wished to eliminate recess and later summer vacation to raise test scores with the implication of wanting to become President (who was fired largely because he proved to be too extreme even for that department), and also represents [[liberal values]]. Also has a slight condemnation of the public school system's mistreatment of children, as Peter Prickly in the ending thanks TJ for having him remember that he originally became a teacher and (albeit unintentionally) principal of Third Street out of a desire to help children, and had largely forgotten that bit until that time.

|''Robin Hood''
|1973
|G
|Animated Disney adaptation of the iconic story, depicting all of the characters as anthropomorphic animals. Although the story itself was based on [[Joseph Ritson]]'s revised version of the character that was in support of the Jacobin cause and thus was a liberal icon (steals from the rich, gives to the poor), the villain is Prince John who makes his money from taxes, suggesting Robin Hood is only giving money the government demanded back to people who actually worked for it, and thus was implicitly closer in themes to the original, pre-Ritson revision version of the character. It also features a condemnation of government encroachment of the church, as a pivotal scene featured the Sheriff of Nottingham explicitly stealing a coin from the poor box and his later arresting Friar Tuck for trying to stop him, and the Sheriff's actions were clearly being framed in a horrible light.

|''Shrek''
|2001
|PG
|Loosely based on a 1990 fairytale picture book by William Steig, the first feature-length computer animation by DreamWorks SKG stars Shrek, a socially challenged ogre who becomes an unlikely hero when he forms an alliance with a pesky, talking donkey to rescue a princess at the behest of the evil Lord Farquaad of Duloc, who hates fairytale-type beings and has forced a host of them to live in Shrek's swamp. Not long after they rescue Princess Fiona, Donkey learns that she was cursed as a child to transform into an ogre herself by night and that only marriage can break the curse. Shrek does not hear this message clearly at first and thinks Fiona is calling him an "ugly beast" before he realizes she actually despises her own ogre form and stops her marriage to Farquaad, preventing him from becoming a tyrannical king and continuing to oppress fairytale beings. Although DreamWorks is liberal, the dialogue occasionally resorts to adult humor (such as Shrek and Donkey cracking jokes at Farquaad's expense that implied that he had small gonads when explaining what he's like), and Fiona sometimes behaves like a feminist (as when she effortlessly uses martial arts against Robin Hood and his Merry Men), it is implied that most of the characters are Christians as the gingerbread man says "God Bless Us Everyone" (a reference to the character Tiny Tim in ''A Christmas Carol''). The gospel song "I'm a Believer" at the end of the feature, and the scene where Shrek and Fiona are silently upset about being separated has the version of "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. Robin Hood is a secondary antagonist, but he is at least implied to be based on the infamous revisionist version by [[Joseph Ritson]] that was made in solidarity to the [[Jacobin]]s during the French Revolution). Lord Farquaad, intended to be based on Liberal [[Disney]] CEO [[Michael Eisner]]<ref>http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2001-04-06/features/0104060008_1_lord-farquaad-dreamworks-jeffrey-Katzenberg</ref> (which adds to the whole film's existence as a reverent parody of Disney fairytale animation conventions), is likewise a lampoon of materialism because he only desires Fiona's marriage so he can officially become the King of Duloc. Finally, shortly after Farquaad meets his end at the jaws of Donkey's dragon love interest, Donkey jokes about [[Hollywood values]]: "Celebrity marriages, they never last, do they?"

|''Shrek 2''
|2004
|PG
|The sequel to the above film. On the one hand, aside from DreamWorks being liberal, there are some jokes that could be interpreted as promoting gender confusion (such as the revelation that Pinocchio was wearing women's underwear while he and the other fairy tale creatures save Shrek and Donkey from imprisonment). On the other hand, there is also an anti-racism message for the film, since Fiona's father, the king of Far Far Away, is initially distrusting of Shrek largely due to the latter's Ogre status, and eventually comes to accept him upon realizing Fiona does truly love him, even going as far as to save his son-in-law from Fairy Godmother at the end, and the main villain, Fairy Godmother, is explicitly racist against Shrek for his species, insisting that "Ogres do not get happy endings" repeatedly. Also like the prior movie, it has a more anti-materialist message, as Fairy Godmother as well as her son, Prince Charming, both only intended to use Fiona in order to gain control over Far Far Away, similar to Lord Farquaad in the preceding movie. It also has a redemption message in the form of Puss in Boots, who initially was hired to kill Shrek, but after Shrek spares him, he ultimately became a loyal ally to Shrek, even willingly holding off several soldiers to allow Shrek and Donkey (who at that time had been transfigured into a handsome man and a white stallion, respectively) enough time to stop Prince Charming and Fairy Godmother from having Fiona "wed" the former (due to thinking that Fiona ingested a brainwashing serum inside her tea that had been laced on Fairy Godmother's orders). Also has a degree of anti-feminist messaging due to Fairy Godmother clearly adhering to the feminist view on things.

|''[[The Simpsons]] Movie''
|2007
|PG-13
|Portrays the liberal [[Environmental Protection Agency|EPA]] as a villainous and devious agency, and portrays the Government in general as intrusive and corrupt, and also features a key element of the story where Homer attempts to redeem himself of his more unpleasant nature, and Flanders' attempts at helping the Simpson family, in particular Bart, are treated positively. On the other hand, it also promotes [[environmentalism]] in the beginning, and also had Arnold Schwartzenegger as the president of the United States despite his legally not being eligible for the presidency due to being Austrian. There is also a brief sight gag where two homosexual policemen proceeded to make out in an alley by the motel the Simpson family was hiding at, with Marge narrowly escaping being spotted by them. In addition, the early part of the film has Homer twice making statements that implied a more atheistic outlook relating to Christianity: The first just as the Simpsons arrive at Church while running late where Homer mouths off "Relax, those pious morons are too busy talking to their phony-baloney God."; the second when Abraham Simpson ends up getting a divinely inspired vision about Springfield's potential future, where Homer, consulting the bible in a panic, yells "I can't! This book has no answers!" Overall, it's as debatable in terms of its Conservativism as the TV show it acted as a movie for.

Towards the end, it is revealed he took the scholarship away from someone who needed it as well (and is really black) because she has a son and is divorced at such a young age. The movie portrays the police as racist, and blames racism on many things, and seems to support the need for affirmative action.

|''Starship Troopers''
|1997
|R
|Although it overall depicts the Military in a protagonistic light and arguably is pro-war and pro-military, the director of the film, Paul Verhoeven, implied it was actually supposed to push an anti-military, anti-war message where it implied that America during the Cold War were automatically fascists simply because they are entering war, and specifically stated it was "a natural evolution for post-World War II America." In addition, to reinforce Verhoeven's message, he deliberately modeled various scenes after ''Triumph of the Will'' and other pro-Nazi propaganda scenes, as well as modeled the protagonists' uniforms after the uniforms utilized by the Nazis (i.e., the character Carl, played by Neil Patrick Harris, wearing a uniform that was modeled after the [[SS]]). When asked by Michael Ironside, who was one of the people who had a role in the movie and had read the original book, about why he made the movie despite Verhoeven's leftist politics, he answered "If I tell the world that a right-wing, fascist way of doing things doesn't work, no one will listen to me. So I'm going to make a perfect fascist world: everyone is beautiful, everything is shiny, everything has big guns and fancy ships, but it's only good for killing ******* bugs!" (note that fascism is not "right wing", it is left wing, so Verhoeven's incorrect regarding which wing the Nazis/fascists were part of).

|A loose live-action/animation adaptation on the book ''Who Censored Roger Rabbit?'' by Gary Wolf. On the one hand, the movie contains many innuendos and crude humor, the antagonist Judge Doom is a capitalist, and the relationship between a toon rabbit and a toon human may be seen as promoting bestiality. On the other hand, the movie depicts marital fidelity in a positive light, as initial signs of Jessica Rabbit's infidelity are in fact part of the antagonist's plot and in reality she actually cares very deeply about her husband (it should also be noted that in the book the film was based on, Jessica was extremely unfaithful to Roger Rabbit, and enjoyed being a porn star, even outright using Roger for stardom. Later additions to the story altered this characterization to be closer to the film and had the initial version be part of a nightmare Jessica had). The film also contains an anti-alcoholism message not present in the original novel in which Eddie Valiant becomes a heavy drinker after the death of his brother (in the original novel, Eddie was just a drinker and didn't have a brother) but eventually pours the alcohol out of the flask that he carries in his holster.

Their two difference lifestyles contradict with each other, and the film does not really pick a side of on whose lifestyle is better. However, it does have a scene where the liberal kids outsmart the conservative kids (By tricking them into thinking there is a fire and then getting to use the bathrooms to themselves). Also, has a scene where the kids work together and use conservative tactics to end bullying without the help of an authority figure. In the end, the kids learn to put their differences aside and realize that family is what matters more.

But on the other hand, it also has similar themes to ''Return of Jafar'' regarding forgiveness and redemption in regards to the titular character. It also is notable as having a pro-traditional marriage message due to Aladdin and Jasmine's wedding factoring into a large part of the plotline, with it also being implied that the kingdom of Agrabah may have held Coptic Christianity as its main religion, one of the few Disney productions during this time to feature such a message on marriage since ''The Little Mermaid'' back in 1989. In addition, it ultimately is pro-fatherhood in the form of Cassim, the titular king of thieves, who was Aladdin's father, and while the central antagonist, he is nonetheless depicted in a more sympathetic light as he became the King of Thieves simply so he could provide for his family, and ultimately was redeemed in the ending of the film.

Also shows a promotion of the concept of being humble, as Taran still considers himself a pig herder even with his role in saving the world. However, the film was a massive box office bomb, with a large part of the reason for it being underperforming being due to both the dark elements of the film, especially for a Disney-made film, and due to a huge amount of footage (at least ten minutes worth) being cut from the film by then-Chairman of Disney Animation [[Jeffrey Katzenberg]].

|''Hercules''
|1997
|G
|Loosely based on the Greco-Roman myth of the demigod strongman Hercules, this Disney animation has some Christian messages like honoring one's father and the triumph of good over evil. In addition, contrary to how he is depicted in regular mythology, Zeus's characterization in the film was closer to that of the Biblical God. Unlike the original myth, in which Hercules was born as a result of Zeus's infamous womanizing actions with mortal women and Hera hated him due to this, Hercules in this film is the actual offspring between Zeus and Hera, putting family values first. Plus, he is raised a mortal this time because the main villain, Hades, has his minions abduct the then-infant Hercules and feed him a potion that drains him of virtually all of his godly potential in order to assassinate him and prevent him from striking down Hades in the future. Another reason why family is a major theme is that Hercules' disappearance greatly devastates both Zeus and Hera, and Zeus, upon learning that Hercules was alive, is greatly overjoyed to learn of his son's survival and admits he is his father. Lastly, the main villain, Hades, while humorous, is nonetheless depicted in a satanic light, and was reported to be based on former Disney animation chairman and staunch liberal [[Jeffrey Katzenberg]].<ref>http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19970622&slug=2545749</ref> However, it underperformed in theaters and with critics.

|''Home Alone 2: Lost in New York''
|1992
|PG
|In the sequel to the first ''Home Alone'', Kevin McCallister is once again accidentally separated from his family while being laid over in New York City and must be self-reliant to survive. He takes advantage of an opportunity to save a children's charity from being robbed by the Wet Bandits from the previous film, using man-made traps against them once more with some modifications. [[Donald Trump]] makes a brief, positive cameo, too, to help Kevin navigate his way through the Plaza Hotel. Family values return as Kevin once again wishes his family away but then misses them. Kate's maternal instinct returns as well because she is determined to find Kevin, even when others tell her there is no hope. Kate once again finds help from a charitable, sympathetic person (in this case, an NYPD officer), who helps her by bringing her to Rockefeller Center, where she finds Kevin. However, it was not as well-received as the first film: most of the criticism was directed towards the fact that it recycles most of the story elements of the previous film.

|''Home Alone'' 3, 4, and 5
|1997, 2002, 2012
|PG
|Installments 3 and 5 in these sequels to the Christmas classic ''Home Alone'' do not involve the original cast, while the fourth only features part of the original cast. They each have a similar story and themes to the original, with the third featuring Communist North Korea and terrorism in a negative light since the antagonists are internationally wanted hitmen tied to North Korea. However, they were nowhere near as popular as the first two because they are considered lesser versions of the originals.

|''How the Grinch Stole Christmas''
|2000
|PG
|A live-action remake of the animated TV adaptation of the [[Dr. Seuss]] book of the same name. Overall, the film promoted many of the same themes as in the special and book, and also expanded on the implied redemptive themes of the special by revealing that the Grinch's hatred of Christmas dealt with being bullied, and ultimately overcoming that past and learning to enjoy Christmas. That all being said, however, the film suffered from production problems where studio heads forced in some raunchy, age-inappropriate jokes into the storyline, in spite of both director Ron Howard and Jim Carrey's insistence that they keep the film family friendly (and in the case of the latter, was careful to keep any ad-libbed humor family friendly) that ultimately harmed the quality of the film. This, alongside the Worst Liberal Movie Live Action Adaptation of another [[Dr. Seuss]] story, ''The Cat in the Hat'', doubling down on many of the aforementioned raunchy elements and pushing more left-wing material, eventually resulted in the Seuss estate placing a ban on Live Action adaptations of various ''Dr. Seuss'' stories.

|Twins Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen star as two unrelated but identical-looking girls who try to get one's father and the other's social worker to fall in love. Though ''It Takes Two'' teaches how important it is for a family to have a mother and a father, it has been criticized for having too similar a story to ''The Parent Trap''.

|''Jack and Jill''
|2011
|PG
|Adam Sandler stars as both Jack and his "identical twin sister" Jill in this family comedy that features pro-capitalism and pro-family values. That aside, ''Jack and Jill'' is an aggressively poorly acted (apart from a strangely committed performance from Al Pacino), poorly written, poorly directed film with an appalling premise (the idea of a man having an "identical twin sister" is nightmarish at best) that received overwhelmingly negative reception from critics and audiences alike, who often called it the worst film of 2011. At the 32nd Golden Raspberry Award ceremony in 2012, ''Jack and Jill'' "won" in all twelve categories, even beating the liberal propaganda piece ''Battlefield Earth''.

|''Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of ''Ga'Hoole''
|2010
|PG
|In a world where owls live in different kingdoms, young barn owl Soren grows up inspired by the Guardians of Ga'Hoole, knightly owls who perform noble deeds. One night, he and his brother Kludd are snatched away from home while practicing flying, taken to a facility that forces owlets to build a contraption for world domination for the Pure Ones. Escaping with an intelligent elf owl named Gylfie, Soren goes to find the Great Ga'Hoole tree (meeting friends like eccentric burrowing owl Digger and boisterous great gray owl Twilight) and warn its guardians of the danger awaiting their kingdom. Like the ''Guardians of Ga'Hoole'' books the movie is based on, the movie shows friendship and a story of [[good and evil]] in a positive light, where the Guardians fight for the security and freedom of their home and the other owl kingdoms against the tyranny of the Pure Ones (which are barn owl supremacists). It also condemns abandoning family, for Kludd is easily won over to the Pure Ones side due to falling for the High Tyto Metal Beak's queen, Nyra, abandoning Soren to be forced to work alongside the other brainwashed owlets while he becomes a soldier in their army. Another case is Kludd going so far as to kidnap his baby sister and brainwash her for Metal Beak's cause, both shown in a horrible light. While the old veteran owl Ezylryb believes that war is harsh and ugly (the books reveal that it's because his wife was killed in the line of duty during the War of the Ice Claws), he is later shown to valiantly fight alongside his fellow Guardians in battle. However, the movie does suffer from rather weak storytelling.

Even though he produced and wrote it, Bill Cosby has disowned the film and even begged people not to see it.

|''The Lion King''
|2019
|PG
|This photorealistic CGI remake of the 1994 film ''The Lion King'' contains the same messages as the original film, from faith and heroism to honoring one's father. Totalitarian rule is shown as negative in the form of Scar, who makes an alliance with the hyenas to take over the Pride Lands and overhunts alongside them (which is also a condemnation of poaching); this sets him up as an opposite to Mufasa when the latter earlier says, "While others search for what they can take, a true king searches for what he can give." Similarly, the movie expands upon the overhunting element from the original movie by revealing it had been done deliberately on Scar's orders, both to cull the numbers to ensure he remained on top as well as out of spite for Sarabi refusing him, showcasing even more blatantly the negatives of megalomania and such being etched into totalitarian ideologies such as Communism. Hakuna Matata is also a lot more nihilistic in this remake, Timon and Pumbaa explaining how life is a "meaningless line of indifference", until Simba finally manages to shake it off and take responsibility. That being said, the movie suffers from flaws like faces not being expressive enough to several important parts of the original being removed.

|''The Lion King II: Simba's Pride''
|1998
|G
|In the sequel to the great conservative animation ''The Lion King'', protagonist Simba and his wife Nala are now raising a daughter of their own, Kiara, but Simba has exiled those lions in his pride who were loyal to his late evil uncle Scar, dubbing them "Outlanders". Tensions rise when Kiara falls in love with an Outlander. Although made during the infamous Michael Eisner era and was part of that era's direct to video sequel line, it also features the same pro-family and Christian messaging as in the original movie. Also features a condemnation against parental neglect/abuse and infanticide, as the main antagonist Zira frequently neglects one of the other antagonists, her eldest son Nuka (who is implied to be the actual male offspring for Scar unlike Kovu), and ultimately gets killed trying to win over her favor; and late in the film, when Vitani takes Kiara's words to heart and joins with the pride landers, Zira proceeds to threaten to kill her daughter in turn, which results in the remainder of the Outlanders proceeding to defect to the Pride Lands out of disgust towards the threat to her own daughter.

|''The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning''
|2008
|G
|The last of the Direct to Video sequels before an embargo was placed upon them largely due to the negative reception to the sequels. The overall plot, acting as a prequel to the original film, deals with letting go of the past and moving forward, and also honoring your parents, as Ariel's reason for bringing back music to Atlantica was because she realized her deceased mother, Queen Athena, would never have wanted music to be banned. Also has some condemnation towards totalitarianism as King Triton, due to his grief of his wife's untimely death, proceeded to enforce big government style control over the kingdom, which was not depicted in a positive light at all. That said, however, the film also conflicted with several plot details regarding the later film (namely, Ariel desiring to become human and frequently disobeying her father to pursue that dream being left out entirely, and Ariel's sisters' birth order being swapped around from what was implied in the Daughters of King Triton musical number), and overall downplays the anti-misanthropy messages the original film had.

|''The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea''
|2000
|G
|Although it to some extent retreads the plotline of the conservative film ''The Little Mermaid'' and was part of the infamous direct-to-video sequel line of the [[Michael Eisner]] era, it has a similar pro-family message and depicts the villain in a truly horrific light (such as trying to murder the main protagonist, a child, twice, once while she was a baby which acted as the primary reason why her parents, Ariel and Eric from the first film, went to great lengths to prevent her from learning about her heritage or even allowing her into the sea, and the other time when she was 12). It condemns parental neglect, too, because the main villain in question, Morgana, is largely motivated by being neglected by her mother over her elder sister, the previous main villain Ursula, which was most showcased in the special edition re-release via the added in song "Gonna Get My Wish."

|''Max Keeble's Big Move''
|2001
|PG
|Similar to ''Ferris Bueller's Day Off'', the film showcases the public school system in a more negative light, due to one of the teachers letting one of the bullies, Dobbs, get away with stealing lunch money and later the same teacher punishing Max Keeble with a significantly and unreasonably large essay about rules for being tardied despite it being obvious that the only reason he was late was because one of the bullies, Troy McGinty, forced him into a swirly (due to his being dripping wet when he entered), as well as the principal of the school, Elliot Jindrake, who also acts as one of the main antagonists, explicitly hating children and only putting up with the school so he could get promoted to superintendent, as well as explicitly embezzling the school's budget, and also proceeding to punish Max for turning up late for an auditorium event even when, similar to the swirly incident mentioned above, it was very obvious that he only ended up late because McGinty proceeded to, in a similar manner to a cooking show, humiliate him by throwing him into a mud pool, putting saw dust on him, and then forcing him into a dumpster (due to his being littered with trash when he walked in). It also has a bit of an anti-socialist message due to the Evil Ice Cream Man being implied at one point to be a socialist (due to his insulting fellow antagonist Dobbs as a "capitalist tool.") and, as indicated by his nom de guerre, was not depicted in a positive light. Also has an allegory for the liberal elements of modern-day journalism as well, due to two of the characters who worked for the school yearbook proceeding to make events out to be even worse than they actually are (such as titling the first day as "Sheep Arrive for Slaughter"), not to mention usually uses the opportunity to actually photograph events of bullying rather than actually making any attempt to prevent it. Despite that, however, it largely was criticized for being bland and unoriginal, at least among adults, including some critics citing it as being too similar to ''Ferris Bueller's Day Off''.

Although it promotes America in a positive light and promotes patriotism, the film alongside several other films released around the same time (such as ''Hollow Man'', ''The Animal'', ''A Knight's Tale'', and ''Vertical Limit''), was also involved in a scandal by Sony Pictures where fake reviews by a fictitious reviewer named David Manning were made as a form of movie marketing, as well as being involved in a scandal about how various trailers had Sony using employees posing as moviegoers to go see the film and give excellent reviews.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20010609225327/http://www.msnbc.com/news/581770.asp?cp1=1</ref><ref>https://www.thoughtco.com/sony-fake-film-critic-story-4062655</ref><ref>https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/1495591/Sony-ordered-to-pay-1.5m-for-film-goer-hoax.html</ref>

|Like with ''4Ever'', it has some implicit pro-Christian messages, as after the villains proceeded to hijack an ancient doomsday weapon, Latios proceeded to sacrifice himself to save Alto Mare from destruction. However, it got very low box office records due to a limited release in America which ultimately led to most other Pokémon films after it to be released as direct to video features (with only the dual-feature fourteenth movie, ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' and ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', the 20th movie, ''Pokémon The Movie: I Choose You'', and the 21st movie, ''The Power of Us'', ever seeing releases in theaters outside Japan since then, and even then only as limited theatrical releases), and its Japanese premiere was, until the Japanese release of the movie ''Hoopa and the Clash of Ages'', the worst performing Pokémon film ever.

|It is the first of the infamous Direct to Video sequel era within Eisner's Disney, and has elements of very poor production values. On the other hand, the film has redemption and forgiveness as major themes of the story due to Iago, Jafar's henchman from the original film, ultimately embracing a change of heart and, after initially saving Aladdin simply so he could get into the palace, eventually proceeding to save Aladdin from Jafar twice with no expectation of a reward, and redeeming himself for betraying Aladdin out of cowardice. It also depicts people who steal from others for their own selfishness in a very negative light in the form of the co-villain Abis Mal.

|This independent drama takes place in one room and explores the love triangle among an amiable banker, his deceptive fiancée, and his conflicted best friend. It teaches against alcoholism and adultery, showing the destructive nature of liberal values. However, ''The Room'' has been critically panned for its acting, screenplay, dialogue, production values, score, direction, cinematography, and handful of unrelated and unresolved subplots. Regardless of its low domestic gross from its initial theatrical run, it has done much better in recent re-screenings, becoming a cult classic of sorts.

|''Shrek the Third''
|2007

|The movie has a condemnation against totalitarian dictatorships and Hollywood values in the form of Prince Charming, who after recruiting various villains into aiding him in taking over Far Far Away, he had the kingdom become dystopic and forced the kingdom to watch a "play" he made as a subtle method of executing Shrek. In addition, it's also pro-family, as Shrek sought out Arthur, Fiona's cousin, to take the throne after her father died of an ailment and gives some heart-felt advice regarding taking up the responsibility, and Shrek ultimately resolves to be a father to his to-be-born kids after learning that Fiona was pregnant despite having misgivings regarding being a father due to his own experiences with his father (who nearly attempted to eat him). It also has condemnation of notions of revenge and has a redemption theme, as many of the villains ultimately gave up on being villains after Arthur convinced them not to be consumed by desires for revenge and seek their original goals. Despite this, however, the film had some very questionable production methods, and the plotline was fairly weak.

|Basketball star Michael Jordan uses the help of the Looney Tunes to beat back alien invaders from outer space who wish to take away their freedoms.

|The film is pro-military and pro-American, with the North Koreans being portrayed in a negative manner. Also shows government corruption in a negative light in the form of a Washington lobbyist and the treacherous CO of the protagonists. Also has hints at a pro-War on Terror message as well. That being said, however, the movie was a critical and financial bomb, reputed to be among the worst box office losses at the time.

|-
|''Superman Returns''
|2006
|PG-13
|America icon Superman is seen as an angel-like figure, who helps those in need. Also condemns to some extent the liberal values within the news media, as Lois Lane's Pulitzer prize was earned due to her making a scathing article on Superman and implying the world doesn't need him, and it's revealed she made the article due to being upset at Superman leaving her behind before the events of the film. It is also pro-family, as the arc words throughout the film with Jor-El telling baby Kal-El via flashback that, even though he himself will die from the destruction of Krypton, he will not leave Superman's side, and that they'll grow stronger as one, with Superman giving a similar speech to his and Lois's son in the ending, and in addition, Lois Lane's husband, Richard White, was shown to be very protective of his family, even going as far as to take a chopper to save them while Superman was incapacitated. However, the movie also had some controversy over the director Bryan Singer's homosexuality, and while it did initially receive positive reviews, it ultimately became negative overtime, and resulted in there not being another Superman film until 2013 with ''Man of Steel'', which was treated as a reboot.

|''Super Mario Bros.''
|May 28, 1993
|PG
|Loosely based on the classic video game series from Nintendo, two fraternal plumbers from Brooklyn, New York must rescue the younger's girlfriend from a parallel dimension ruled by humans descended directly from dinosaurs. The film may support the Second Amendment when an old lady, before mugging the brothers, explicitly states they need to have a weapon to survive on the streets of Dinohattan (a parody of Manhattan depicted as a lawless hellhole). Furthermore, the movie seems to condemn Communistic/fascistic big government in the form of King Koopa (a human-looking dictator loosely based on Bowser, the turtle-dragon hybrid who serves as the main villain of most Super Mario games). The aforementioned lawlessness of Dinohattan is heavily implied to be caused by King Koopa's using liberal values and big government (à la Scar from ''The Lion King'') to grossly mismanage the location to such an extent that he and his minions ran out of resources after taking over Dinohattan via a coup and "reformed" it into a people's republic with false elections. To some extent, the movie condemns evolution and social Darwinism: although the backstory does involve dinosaurs evolving into humanoid creatures since they were sent to a separate dimension from that of humans, only the villains focus on this aspect and thus want to eliminate true humans.

All that aside, the film was largely panned and recouped less than half its budget at the box office, and it is considered one of the more infamous examples of the inherent difficulties of adapting a video game into a film. Effectively, ''Super Mario Bros.'' scared Nintendo into never allowing the West to make another film based on any one of its game franchises or letting Disney have any direct role in any of its franchises besides distributing games based on them, instead granting Universal Studios the rights to build a Nintendo theme park at Universal Studios Orlando; and it ruined the directorial careers of Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel. Making the film took its toll on the actors, too, particularly Bob Hoskins (Mario), who stated in an interview years later that it was "…the worst thing I ever did", noting that he was stabbed four times, electrocuted, injured in one finger, and almost drowned during production. Likewise, in an autobiography, John Leguizamo (who played Luigi, Mario's younger brother) dedicates an entire chapter to the horrors of working on ''Super Mario Bros.'' and comments that he and Hoskins drank heavily during breaks to deal with the traumatic experience. Among the handful of editing errors is a specific shot that shows one of Koopa's guards slipping on slime that wasn't even present originally when the Mario Bros. revolted. This was the result of a deleted scene where Koopa, both due to his germophobic nature and as a further demonstration of the de-evolution chamber's properties, executes a technician by de-evolving him into primordial ooze for sneezing in his presence, explaining where the slime came from.

|''Under Siege 2: Dark Territory''
|1995
|R
|Casey Ryback, while on a train with his niece, Sarah, gets caught in the middle of another hijacking as the train is taken over by ex-military American mercenaries led by Marcus Penn. Their employer, Travis Dane, is a former weapons designer who uses the train as a mobile base to hack into his creation, the WMD satellite Grazer One, and use it to destroy Washington DC. Dane and Penn are revealed to have an extensive network of contacts with America's worst enemies, who pay them lots of money for their terrorist activities and Dane is especially amoral and depraved. He is willing to destroy a chemical weapons plant in Guanzhou, China, killing thousands, just to demonstrate the power of his weapon. He then uses it to destroy an entire passenger airplane just to kill a customer's ex-wife for extra money.

The film overall depicts Ryback's heroism in a positive light and the villains' treachery and depravity in a negative light like the first movie. It also has a pro-family theme demonstrated by Casey's relationship with Sarah as well as Casey's regret for not making amends with his brother before his brother's death. However, it's very derivative of the first film, and also has an anti-WMD message with Grazer One and Tom Breaker's line "Sane people do not build weapons like this."
|$104,324,083

|''The Wild''
|2006
|G
|The main moral is that character and strength comes from within, and that it does not matter where one comes from, to achieve this. This is also a pro-family film about a father of the lion who along with his animal friends goes to search for his son after he is accidentally taken away. The villains of the movie are wildebeests that are trying to change the food chain, by planning to eat the lions, and one could argue this could give the film anti-environmentalist message. However the movie did receive poor reviews, and the movie’s main plot about Central Park Zoo animals that go on adventures was unfavorably compared to the more successful and politically neutral animation film ''Madagascar'' which had been released the year before.

Law and Order: SVU

2020-11-08T03:57:21Z

Evadetyranny19: This series is still in production as of 2020.

'''''Law and Order: Special Victims Unit''''' is a television program on [[NBC]] that ran from 1999 to 2020. It is the most popular show in the Law and Order franchise, eclipsing even the original. It stars Christopher Meloni as Det. Elliott Stabler and Mariska Hargitay as Det. Olivia Benson. Stabler is a good conservative family man, he hates pedophiles and often beats them violently on the show. The premise of SVU is about sex offences and the prosecution of them. Benson often bonds with the victims if they survive and Stabler beats perps senseless. The show is extremely popular, partially because of Stabler's crazy antics. The show often has humourous moments as well, such as when Ice-T's character makes wisecracks at some of the perps. The show is criticized by liberals because of the violence done to some of the criminals by the characters and for portraying crime as the criminal's fault, not society's.{{fact}}
