Trump’s Muslim Ban Fraud #emoluments #impeachtrump

This rises to the level of Treason. Business entanglements, emoluments, determine Trump’s national security agenda.
Four countries are noticeably missing from that list: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates. They’re located in the same region as the countries subject to the ban and they’re home to large Muslim populations. They also have something else in common: They all do business with Trump.
These articles attract brain-dead Trumpistas. You have to simplify the glaringly obvious for them. As Bloomberg actually does…
If the president was as dedicated to national security as he suggests, it would be logical for his list of banned countries to look a little different. After all, 15 of the 19 hijackers involved in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, were from Saudi Arabia. Two of them were from the U.A.E., and one was from Egypt. More recent attacks in the U.S. haven’t involved immigrants from any of the countries on Trump’s list.
They don’t know or care what emoluments are. So you have to educate them on that too, if they were capable of education…
If the House of Representatives flips this November, all bets are off.
Trumptards fuck off, you anti-American fascist thugs.

Demonizing Immigrants is Based on a Big Lie

Despite Trump’s speech, immigrants commit far fewer crimes than native-born Americans
Donald Trump’s Nazi encore, demonizing outsiders as criminals, scapegoating outsider groups, is a BIG LIE. A Big Lie is an audacious falsehood that propagandists keep telling over and over despite facts to the contrary. This is a fascist administration to the core. Its entire modus operandi is the fascism playbook. Be afraid.

Anti-Empire Report 158

by William Blum
The American people are very much like the children of a Mafia boss who do not know what their father does for a living, and don’t want to know, but then they wonder why someone just threw a firebomb through the living room window.
This basic belief in America’s good intentions is often linked to “American exceptionalism”. Let’s look at just how exceptional America has been. Since the end of World War 2, the United States has:
- Attempted to overthrow more than 50 foreign governments, most of which were democratically-elected.
- Dropped bombs on the people of more than 30 countries.
- Attempted to assassinate more than 50 foreign leaders.
- Attempted to suppress a populist or nationalist movement in 20 countries.
- Grossly interfered in democratic elections in at least 30 countries.
- Led the world in torture; not only the torture performed directly by Americans upon foreigners, but providing torture equipment, torture manuals, lists of people to be tortured, and in-person guidance by American teachers, especially in Latin America.
This is indeed exceptional. No other country in all of history comes anywhere close to such a record. But it certainly makes it very difficult to believe that America means well.

This fascist monster is the worst America has to offer. The very worst. The biggest liar. The most hate and racism packed into one blustering asshole.
