Double Header – Congressmen Trey Gowdy and Jim Jordan question Rod Rosenstein

No doubt it is time to remove the biased special counsel Mueller

00-00

there are a lot of issues that I would

00-01

like to ask you about mr. Deputy

00-03

Attorney General we had a terrorist

00-04

incident in New York this week we have

00-06

702 reauthorization that is pending in

00-09

Congress gun violence the opioid

00-11

epidemic criminal justice reform but

00-15

when I go home to South Carolina this

00-17

weekend trust me when I tell you no one

00-19

is going to ask me about any of those

00-20

issues they’re gonna ask me what in the

00-23

hell is going on with the Department of

00-25

Justice and the FBI the reason we have

00-29

special counsel this is a very important

00-31

point the written you know it the reason

00-33

we have special counsel is because of a

00-35

conflict of interest the regulation

00-38

itself specifically makes reference to a

00-41

conflict of interest and and we don’t

00-43

like conflicts of interest because it

00-45

undercuts people’s confidence and both

00-48

the process and the result so so let’s

00-50

be really clear why we have special

00-53

counsel there was either a real or

00-55

perceived conflict of interest that we

00-58

were fearful would either impact the

01-00

result or people’s confidence in the

01-03

process that’s why we have something

01-05

called special counsel and that’s why we

01-08

have special counsel in this fact

01-10

pattern and then lo and behold those who

01-13

are supposed to make sure there are no

01-16

conflicts of interest seem to have a few

01-18

of their own there’s a senior prosecutor

01-22

who said obsequious emails to a fact

01-26

witness I she can be described as

01-30

nothing other than a fact witness she’s

01-32

a really important fact witness if you

01-35

pursue the line of inquiry that my

01-38

Democrat friends want to pursue they got

01-40

off of collusion and now their own

01-42

obstruction of justice she may be the

01-44

most important fact witness in an

01-46

obstruction of justice case and the

01-49

senior prosecutor for this conflict of

01-52

interest free special counsel sent a

01-55

fawning obsequious email to a fact

01-58

witness and then we have prosecutors

02-00

assigned to conduct this investigation

02-03

who donated almost exclusively to one

02-06

candidate over another and then we have

02-09

a prosecutor assigned to this calm

02-12

flicked of interest free team that

02-14

attended what was supposed to be what

02-16

he’d hoped to be a victory party for

02-18

Secretary Clinton and we have a senior

02-21

DOJ official mr. Deputy Attorney General

02-23

with an office it used to be two doors

02-25

now from yours meeting with fusion GPS

02-29

and fusion GPS of course was paying for

02-32

rush and dirt on the very person that

02-35

they’re supposed to be objectively

02-37

investigating and then that same senior

02-40

DOJ officials wife the one that met with

02-44

fusion GPS his wife was on the payroll

02-47

of fusion GPS and then we have a senior

02-52

agent assigned to investigate secretary

02-55

Clinton’s email helped draft the

02-58

exoneration letter well we changed the

03-00

language from grossly negligent to

03-02

extremely careless interviewed Secretary

03-05

Clinton in an interview I’ve never seen

03-08

and I doubt you have either in your

03-09

career as a prosecutor interviewed

03-12

Michael Flynn was actively involved in

03-14

the investigation into the trunk

03-16

campaign before the Inspector General

03-18

found his text so this agent in the

03-21

middle of almost everything related to

03-25

Secretary Clinton in President Trump

03-27

sent pro Clinton tax anti-trump texts to

03-31

his paramour in response to being told

03-34

maybe he is where he is to protect the

03-38

country from that menace Donald Trump he

03-41

said I can protect our country at many

03-45

levels and then he said Hillary Clinton

03-47

should win 100 million to nothing I

03-50

think about that mr. Deputy Attorney

03-51

General that’s a pretty overwhelming

03-53

victory 100 million to zero and when I

03-58

read that last night what I thought was

04-00

this conflict of interest free senior

04-03

agent and the FBI can’t think of a

04-05

single solitary American who would vote

04-07

for Donald Trump that’s where the zero

04-10

comes in not a single solitary American

04-13

he can imagine would vote for Donald

04-16

Trump this is the conflict of interest

04-18

free special agent aside and then he

04-21

went on if that

04-22

enough to belittle Trump supporters by

04-24

saying he could smell them at a Walmart

04-27

in Virginia this is the person we needed

04-32

to avoid a conflict of interest and then

04-34

he said this they fully deserve to go

04-37

and demonstrate the absolute bigoted

04-39

nonsense of trunk but he wasn’t content

04-42

to just disparage Donald Trump he had to

04-45

disparage Donald Trump’s family this is

04-49

what he said mr. Deputy Attorney General

04-50

he said the douche bags are about to

04-52

come out he’s talking about our First

04-54

Lady and children this conflict of

04-58

interest free special agent of the FBI

05-01

this is who we were told we needed to

05-04

have an objective impartial fair

05-07

conflict of interest free investigation

05-09

so he’s openly pulling for the candidate

05-11

he had a role in clearing and he’s

05-13

openly investigating a candidate that he

05-16

has bias against and then if that’s not

05-18

enough he says Trump is an effing idiot

05-21

what the f just happened to our country

05-24

this is the same man that said he would

05-26

save our country what happens when

05-30

people who are supposed to cure the

05-32

conflict of interests have even greater

05-33

conflicts of interest than those they

05-35

replace well that’s not a rhetorical

05-38

question you nor I nor anyone else

05-42

whatever sit Peter struck on a jury we

05-46

wouldn’t have him objectively

05-48

dispassionately investigate anything

05-50

knowing what we know now why didn’t we

05-54

know what ahead of time and my last

05-56

question my final question to you and I

05-58

appreciate the Chairman’s patience how

06-00

would you help me answer that question

06-02

when I go back to South Carolina this

06-04

weekend

06-05

congressman first of all with regard to

06-09

the special counsel mr. struck was

06-12

already working on the investigation

06-13

when the special counsel was appointed

06-15

the appointment I made was to Robert

06-16

Mullins what I recommend that you tell

06-18

your constituents is that Robert Muller

06-21

and rod Rosen Stein and Chris Rea are

06-24

accountable and that we will ensure that

06-27

no bias is

06-28

selected in any of the actions taken by

06-30

the special counsel or in any matter

06-33

within the jurisdiction the Department

06-35

of Justice when we have evidence of any

06-38

inappropriate conduct we’re going to

06-39

take action on it and that’s what mr.

06-41

Muller did here as soon as he learned

06-43

about this issue he took action and

06-46

that’s what I anticipate that the rest

06-48

of our prosecutors are a new group of US

06-50

attorneys our Justice Department and

06-52

poor entities they understand the rules

06-55

and they understand the responsibility

06-56

to defend the integrity of the

06-57

department if they find evidence of

06-59

improper conduct they’re going to take

07-01

action so congressman that’s the best

07-03

assurance I can give you but actually

07-06

there’s one other point which is you

07-07

should tell your constituents that we

07-09

expose this issue because we’re ensuring

07-13

that the Inspector General conducts a

07-14

thorough and effective investigation and

07-17

if there is any evidence of impropriety

07-18

he’s going to surface it and report

07-20

about it publicly I’ll try

What Happens When Google Disagrees With You?

 

I used to be a senior software engineer at Google. Until they fired me.

For doing something unforgivable…

Something so controversial that it was the number one news story for days.

My crime: I wrote an internal document that, among other things, suggested that men and women, on average, are different.

Like I told you: Unforgivable.

The politically progressive viewpoint, which is dominant at Google and in the media, is that all disparities in society are due to injustices. Or, in this case, that the gender gap in tech is solely due to some form of sexism.

But is this true?

The politically correct answer is: yes. And Google acts accordingly. It treats men and women differently during hiring and promotion, holds official women-only events, and gives mandatory sensitivity training on how to combat alleged sexist bias.

Of course, all of this makes sense if sexism is indeed the sole cause of the imbalance.

But what if men and women are not exactly the same?

Then, sexism is just one of many possible causes of the imbalance, and exclusionary programs and differential treatment can be a counterproductive form of sexism. These practices actually increase tensions and make some feel like Google cares more about their gender than their programming ability.

As an engineer, when I’m faced with a problem, I want to solve it. So, I decided to research the premise: that men and women are exactly the same.

I wrote my findings in a 10-page document titled, “Google’s Ideological Echo Chamber.” You can read it online.

What did I discover? That not all of the male-female disparity in tech may be the result of sexism.That at least some of it may be attributed to men and women having different goals for their careers and their lives.

To cite just two examples:

In the study, “Women, Careers, and Work-Life Preferences,” published in the British Journal of Guidance and Counselling, the study’s authors conclude that women across populations tend to look for more work-life balance, while men tend to have a higher drive for status.

And according to a study by Cal State Fullerton psychologist Richard Lippa, men, on average, tend to be more interested in things, while women tend to be more interested in people.

These findings have been replicated many times. They’ve actually been cited by other researchers as a cause for the gender gap in tech.

In other words, I didn’t make this stuff up.

In fact, after my document came under attack, evolutionary psychologist Geoffrey Miller said its “empirical claims are scientifically accurate.”

But Google disagreed. Like?really disagreed.

First, the company’s newly appointed VP of Diversity, Integrity, and Governance, Danielle Brown, posted a memo that said my report “advanced incorrect assumptions about gender.”

Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, sent a memo to all employees saying that I “cross[ed] the line by advancing harmful gender stereotypes.” This was, he added, “not O.K.” 

Then, he fired me.

By that point, much to my shock, my document had gone viral. News outlets were branding it an “anti-diversity manifesto.”

But if they had read what I wrote, they could see for themselves that it was pro-diversity. I had suggested multiple ways that we could get more women into tech without resorting to counterproductive discrimination.

Ironic, isn’t it? The company that hires some of the smartest people in the world couldn’t handle a well-reasoned, scientific discussion.

But my firing pales in comparison to a larger issue: Will Google force upon its users the same politically correct views that it forces upon its employees?

The evidence is disturbing. Google already manipulates its products to fit a certain viewpoint.

Just one example: YouTube, Google’s video platform, restricts access to dozens of PragerU videos, along with videos made by other influential moderates and conservatives.

Yes?Google is a business and can set its own policies. But for its billions of users, Google is their main gateway to information, the lens through which they view the world.

This makes Google, in some ways, more powerful than even the government.

And that means Google has a special responsibility to, well?simply follow its own motto: “Don’t be evil.”

I’m James Damore for Prager University.

How can the States Fix the Federal Government

A Convention of States and Article V of the Constitution.

Washington is gigantic, corrupt, and unaccountable. Can it be fixed? Learn more about the Convention of States and Article V of the Constitution. Jim DeMint, former Senator from South Carolina, explains.

The federal government has become a lumbering giant. With each passing year, it gets bigger and scarier. In 1965, Washington was 761 billion dollars big. In 2016… it was 3.5 trillion ? five times the size.

If the government spent only the money it collected in taxes, that would be one thing. But it always spends more­­?which is why we’re $20 trillion dollars in debt. That’s 13 zeroes. Count ’em: Thirteen.

But the crazy spending isn’t even the worst of it. Washington is involved in every part of our lives.

Think about anything you do, from driving your car to buying your groceries to mowing your lawn. Whatever it is?your education, your job, your health? the government has its hands on your shoulder, if not on your throat.

As a congressman and senator for 14 years, I know this only too well.

So, how do we cut this giant down to size? Is it even possible?

Yes. And the amazing thing is, the answer is right in front of us.

The Founding Fathers, in their wisdom, foresaw the situation we find ourselves in today. They wrote into the Constitution a way to repair Washington…not from the inside, because that will never happen but from the outside, where it might. It’s right there in Article 5. Most people are familiar with the first part: “The Congress, whenever two-thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution…”

All 27 Amendments we have now started this way. Congress proposed them and at least three-quarters of the states ratified them.

But is this the only way to amend the Constitution?

Well, let’s read the next clause: It says that Congress, “?on the application of the legislatures of two-thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments…”

Did you catch that?

Congress must call a convention to amend the Constitution if two-thirds of the states?that’s 34 states?demand it.

The time has come to demand it.

The time has come to propose amendments that will restore meaningful limits on federal power and authority.

The time has come for a convention of states.

Here’s how it would work: Once the 34 states call a convention, all 50 states send a delegate to represent their interests. For any constitutional amendments proposed, each state gets one vote. And an amendment only passes out of the convention and to the states for ratification if a majority of the states’ delegates vote in the affirmative. In this scenario, Congress has no say. It is completely in the hands of the states, which means it’s a whole lot closer to the hands of the people.

We’ve never once amended the Constitution this way?but that doesn’t mean we can’t.

But, you might ask, doesn’t this open the door to rewriting the entire Constitution?

Antonin Scalia, the late Supreme Court justice, acknowledged this risk but regarded it as a “minimal” and “reasonable” one. Why? Because to be ratified, a proposed amendment would need the approval of 38 states. That’s a high bar. Thirty-eight states would never agree to something radical like abolishing freedom of speech. “The Founders,” Scalia said, “knew the Congress would be unwilling to give attention to many issues the people are concerned with, particularly those involving restrictions on the federal government’s own power… [so] they provided the convention [of states] as a remedy.”

This should not be a partisan, left/right, Democrat/Republican issue. This should be a “who controls your life” issue: you or the government?

Today, politicians can turn your life upside down on a whim, kind of like King George in 1775. Being at the mercy of distant, disconnected rulers was why the American Revolution was fought in the first place!

But we don’t need a revolution. We have Article Five.

So, what amendments might a Convention of States propose to limit Washington’s power?

Term limits, for one.

No one should be in Congress for 20 or 30 years. The only people who disagree have been in Congress for 20 or 30 years.

And how about a limit on taxes, spending, and borrowing? Since you began this video, the national debt has gone up $8.4 million dollars.

Here’s one more idea: A constitutional amendment that Congress can’t exempt itself from the laws it passes?something it’s done dozens of times, from insider trading to Obamacare.

Now, I don’t believe a Convention of States will solve all of America’s problems. But the Founders put it in the Constitution for a reason. They knew a time would come when Washington would become so big, and so intrusive, that only we the people could cut it down to size.

That time is now.

The Southern Poverty Law Center ? A Hate Group ?

The “Anti-Hate” Group That Is a Hate Group

Shutting down people you don’t agree with is about as un-American as you can get.

Rigorous debate, honest discussion, open exchange of ideas?that’s the American way.

But free thinking and speech are threatened today by a group with a sweet-sounding name that conceals a nefarious purpose. This group is called the Southern Poverty Law Center, or SPLC.

Originally founded as a civil-rights law firm in 1971, the SPLC reinvented itself in the mid-’80s as a political attack group. Every year now it produces a new list of people and charities it claims are “extremists” and “haters.”

Aided by glowing coverage from the establishment media, the SPLC’s hate list has become a weapon for taking individuals and groups they disagree with and tarring them with ugly associations.

The SPLC employs a two-pronged strategy:

First,  find a handful of crazies with barely any followers, no address, and no staff, and blow them up into a dangerous movement? proof that there are neo-Nazis lurking everywhere. On their notorious “Hate Map,” the SPLC lists 917 separate hate groups in the U.S.! No one has even heard of more than a handful of them.

The second strategy of the SPLC is to undermine legitimate political voices that they oppose by associating them with extremists like the KKK.

Take the charity known as the Alliance Defending Freedom. The SPLC lists them as a “hate group.” Is that fair? Well, the ADF has a network of 3,000 attorneys from all across the U.S. who’ve donated more than a million volunteer hours in defense of religious liberty. They’ve had a role in 49 victories at the U.S. Supreme Court. Putting the Alliance Defending Freedom on a list with 130 Ku Klux Klan chapters is not only wrong, it’s malicious.

According to the SPLC, one of the most influential social scientists in the U.S.? Charles Murray?is a, quote, “white nationalist.” Ayaan Hirsi Ali, perhaps the most eloquent spokesperson for the rights of Muslim women, is, to the SPLC, a “toxic… anti-Muslim extremist.”

Scores of other individuals and charities active in mainstream conservative or religious causes have likewise been branded by the Southern Poverty Law Center as threats to society.

Mind you, it is entirely fair to disagree with any of those folks. But it is utterly unfair to call them haters or extremists. The largest category listed by the SPLC as extremists?with 623 entries?covers groups like the Tea Party organizations that are wary of centralized government. Last time we checked, favoring smaller government was a mainstream and perfectly honorable American tradition.

What is not honorable is the course prescribed by a leader of the SPLC, Mark Potok, who was caught on video proclaiming the organization’s true intentions. He told a group of supporters, quote, “the press will describe us as ‘monitoring hate groups’?. I want to say plainly that our aim in life is to destroy these groups, to completely destroy them.”

Portraying someone with political views different from your own as a public menace is bullying.

And it’s a dangerous game. Instead of reducing hate and violence, the SPLC’s name-calling directly incites it.

In March 2017, Charles Murray was trying to discuss his acclaimed book Coming Apart at Middlebury College when he was violently attacked by protesters inflamed by the SPLC’s labeling of him as a racist. A professor escorting Murray ended up in the hospital.

In 2012, a gunman attempted mass murder at the Family Research Council, and failed only because the first man he shot managed to disarm him. The attacker told the police he acted because the SPLC had listed the Family Research Council as a hate group.

It’s a vicious irony: while promoting itself as a monitor of “hate groups,” the SPLC has, in practice, become a fomenter of hate.

Yet the group rolls on, bigger than ever. What keeps them going?

For one thing, the establishment media constantly quote them.

Scare stories about right-wing storm-troopers are a sure way to attract eyeballs, and fit nicely with the media’s own preconceptions of the “dangerous reactionaries” lurking out there in middle America.

Second, alarmism is a great fundraising technique. Convincing people there are fascists everywhere has turned the SPLC into a cash machine. Last year, the group hustled $50 million dollars out of frightened liberal donors, adding to the $368 million dollars of assets they were already sitting on.

So, the next time you see the Southern Poverty Law Center quoted in the news, just remember: the masterminds behind the SPLC aren’t eliminating hate. They are fueling it.
