“On February 21, 2020 at approximately 1012 hours,” according to Amador County, California sheriff-coroner Martin A. Ryan, “deputies and detectives responded to the area of Highway 124 and Highway 16 in Plymouth to the report of a male subject on the ground with a gunshot wound. Upon their arrival, they located and identified 66-year-old Philip Haney, who was deceased and appeared to have suffered a single, self-inflicted gunshot wound. A firearm was located next to Haney and his vehicle. This investigation is active and ongoing. No further details will be released at this time.”

The establishment media ignored the story but as Michelle Mears noted in the California Globe, Haney’s relatives and friends did not believe he had killed himself. That left the question of motive, and high on the list of suspects would be Islamic terrorists.

Haney was a UC Riverside alum who worked as a field agricultural entomologist in the Middle East, where he began studying Arabic and the Quran. In a 2016 interview, Frank Gaffney asked Haney to comment on the behavior of “Islamic supremacists” and their doctrine of shariah.

“Some people have heard about ants, how they leave scent trails,” Haney said. “And other insects do it, too, so they can follow each other around and not get lost. Well, that’s essentially what shariah is. That is the universe that Muslims live inside, it forms the boundaries of the world that they live in. And their attempt to implement shariah on a global basis, from their perspective, is an attempt to establish order in this chaotic, violent world that we live in. That’s why they always say that Islam is a religion of peace. Because for them, shariah equals peace.”

The erudite Haney proved adept at tracking terrorist groups, but as he explained in The Hill on May 5, 2016, the Department of Homeland Security ordered him “to delete or modify several hundred records of individuals tied to designated Islamist terror groups like Hamas from the important federal database, the Treasury Enforcement Communications System (TECS).”

As Haney told Gaffney, “The mosque that [San Bernardino terrorist] Syed Farook attended was part of that Tablighi Jamaat network. The administration deleted sixty-seven records out of the system that I had worked on as a component of the Tablighi case.” So those still part of that terrorist network might have a motive to silence Haney, who provided a broader picture in See Something Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government’s Submission to Jihad.

Haney also authored Frontpage articles such as, “Deobond Attacks in San Bernardino, Sri Lanka,” “The Terrorist Ties that Bind,” and “The Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America’s Ominous Post-Election Statement.” That extensive piece, Haney wrote at the end, was “Finished at 2017 hours on January 19, 2017, the evening before the Inauguration of Donald J. Trump as President.” 

Trump called out Islamic terrorism and according to Kerry Picket in the Washington Examiner, Haney was “recently in contact with top officials about returning to work for the DHS.” That would not please the DHS holdovers who went after Haney for telling the truth about Islamic terrorists.  

After Haney’s testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2016, Sen. Ted Cruz asked Jeh Johnson, DHS Secretary from 2013-17, if Haney’s testimony was accurate. “I have no idea. I don’t know who Mr. Haney is,” Johnson replied. “I wouldn’t know him if he walked into the room.”

Haney said DHS investigated him nine times and revoked his security clearance. The Department of Justice charged that Haney “misused a government computer,” charges later dropped. Still, the news that Haney might be returning to DHS would not thrill POTUS 44 “wing man” Eric Holder, who has been telling reporters looking into DOJ malfeasance to “shut the hell up.”

John Durham is mounting a criminal investigation and as Sebastian Gorka explains, “the counter-coup has begun” and “the deep state beast is writing in discomfiture.” The coup clan failed to removed Trump from office and may now be convinced that Trump will be reelected. So it is entirely possible that the death of DHS whistleblower Phil Haney was the first shot fired in the deep state coverup.

“Phil had firsthand evidence that Obama was secretly advancing Islamic hegemony in the U.S.,” Haney’s friend Bill Becker, told the California Globe. “He sacrificed his career to expose it.” His suspicious death deserves an investigation by the FBI, but at this writing, nothing has been announced. As FBI critics might note, after Bernie Sanders supporter James Hodgkinson shot down Steve Scalise, an FBI special agent told reporters it was too soon to say if the shooter had deliberately targeted Republican lawmakers.

Meanwhile, according to the California Globe, friends of Phil Haney said he was “preparing to go back on the road during the 2020 election season.” That raises issues far beyond Amador County, California.

If they manage to win the White House, any of the leading Democrats would surely shut down all investigations into any misconduct by the administration of POTUS 44. At this writing, the Democrats’ leading contender is Rip Van Winkle communist Bernie Sanders, and the election takes place on November 3. As President Trump says, we’ll have to see what happens.

A new ship, financially backed by the Protestant Church in Germany (EKD), will start rescuing migrants in the Mediterranean trying to reach to Europe, raising fears that the vessel may be used to aid illegal immigrants entering Europe. 

The “Sea-Watch 4” ship has been inaugurated by the United4Rescue initiative, which is led by the German Protestants and supported by another 400 organizations. The 45-year-old ship, previously used as a research vessel, should start its first mission this April.

Last Thursday, several politicians and church leaders attended the ceremonial ship launching in Kiel in northern Germany.

At the ceremony, the chairman of the Protestant Church in Germany (EKD), Heinrich Bedford-Strohm, said European leaders should do more for migrants.

“One does not let any single human drown, end of the discussion,” urged Bedford-Strohm.

A number of European countries have expressed their opposition to the activities of Sea-Watch and other similar organizations. Italy’s previous interior minister, Matteo Salvini, implemented the policy of refusing to allow migrants to dock in Italy’s ports, causing a stand-off that left many ships stranded until other European states said they would accept the migrants.

“Sea Watch does trafficking in human beings and doesn’t care about the rules,” said Salvini, saying that he would never allow the ship to land in Italy with migrants.

Sea-Watch’s captain was then arrested last year in Italy after she illegally docked in an Italian port with illegal migrants. The prosecutor questioned her over her activities, saying she aided illegal immigrants reach Europe. The 31-year-old German captain, Carola Rackete, was released three days later.

Is the German Church encouraging illegal migration to Europe?

The United4Rescue has also launched a crowdfunding campaign #WirschickeneinSchiff, or “We send a ship”, to finance the rescue of migrants in the Mediterranean.

As the Protestant Church in Germany handed over the ship to the German NGO Sea-Watch, the organization will now operate the ship, along with its other vessel Sea-Watch 3. However, the new ship is bigger than the Sea-Watch 3, as its standard capacity reaches 300 people but can accommodate up to 900 people in the case of an emergency.

The crew will consist of about 26 volunteers and Sea-Watch employees, which will set to sail on four-week missions.

The ship will make its first voyage in just a few days as it will sail from Kiel to Burriana, a port in eastern Spain. After further renovations are done on the ship in Burriana, the vessel will, according to several media sources, offer a “safe” area with 24 beds for women and children.

The crew of the boat should be able to treat typical syndromes that migrants often suffer from, such as dehydration, bruising and burns from petrol which happens when migrants travel on boats unsuitable for sea travel, however, the medical staff will not be able to handle severe medical emergencies.

Critics say that the rescue boats paradoxically lead to more migrant deaths, with many more migrants encouraged to make the voyage with the belief that they have a chance of being rescued should their boat sink.

The Visegrad Four countries of Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic have lobbied to provide aid to countries that serve as the source for migration instead of accepting more migrants into Europe.

Below, the complete text and video of our previous post on this issue with another video. Thank you MissPiggy for keeping an eye on this story and translating the mounting evidence of what looks like yet another in the Merkel deceptions and misrepresentations of tragic events to crush all attempts at a counter-revolution against the Menshevik communists now running the West in most ways.

Those of you who follow European politics might have heard about the “far right wing racist” guy who shot up a club killing many Kurdish people for some reason.

While this atrocity remains an atrocity, we did not publish anything about it because we spotted the pattern of Merkel and the leftist government media complex either using or even ORCHESTRATING events in order to demonize, marginalize and now, even an attempt to criminalize the classically liberal, AfD party. It is freakish how these events happen before regional elections and also no surprise at this point how the event is used.

We saw it first in Chemnitz which was busted by Merkel’s own director of Intel, who was then moved to another portfolio right away. He would have been fired if not for the coalition partner who made sure he got an even better job, but outside of Intel.

There have been other instances, but the next one that seems clear was the abuse of an event where a nutty fellow who was not even right wing, went and attempted an attack on a small city Synagogue which failed but he killed two unrelated persons in the process. All information on this attack was banned and controlled just as was this new case. Manifestos and videos taken off line and especially in Germany as the facts and motives were reformatted to fit Merkel’s Neo-Marxist narrative.

We did not want to publish anything while the Neo-Marxist machine had control of the narrative.

Information about the killer of the Kurds is now beginning to seep out here and there and now it has become worth posting about. Here is the first couple of items stitched together into one video:

The woman in the second video is co-chair of Germany’s federal AfD.

The U.S. special envoy to monitor and combat anti-Semitism implicitly criticized the decision in France not to try a man who killed his Jewish neighbor.

Elan Carr referenced the decision on the killer of Sarah Halimi during a conference Monday on anti-Semitism organized by the European Jewish Association in Paris.

In December, a judge decided not to try Kobili Traore of killing Halimi in 2017 while shouting about Allah. The judge cited psychiatric evaluations saying Traore’s consumption of marijuana before the incident led to a “delirious episode” that made him not legally responsible for his actions. But the judge also said that Traore, who is in his 30s, killed Halimi because he is an anti-Semite.

The ruling provoked outrage by French Jews. Last month, President Emmanuel Macron said that “there is a need for a trial” for Traore.

“You don’t dismiss hate crime charges for issues like the consumption of marijuana,” Carr said, referencing his credentials as a former prosecutor in Los Angeles. “It doesn’t explain away hate crimes that need to be prosecuted to the utmost severity of the law.”

The conference, titled “Jews in Europe: United for a Better Future,” was held at the European Center for Judaism, a $17 million community center opened in October.

Menachem Margolin, chairman of the European Jewish Association, said the building and growing engagement with Judaism by many European Jews is making him “hopeful of the future of Jews here” despite the challenges.

A car drove into a crowd at a Carnival procession in a German town on Monday, injuring several people, police said.

A large number of police are at the scene in Volkmarsen, about 175 miles southwest of Berlin, and the driver was arrested, Northern Hesse police said.

Local media reported at least a dozen injuries, including children, but police couldn’t immediately confirm the information. Video from the scene showed a silver Mercedes station wagon with local license plates and its hazard lights blinking on the sidewalk, while emergency crews walked by.

The crash came amid the height of Germany’s celebration of Carnival, with the biggest parades in Cologne, Duesseldorf and Mainz. Volkmarsen, a town of about 7,000, is east of Duesseldorf, near Kassel.

Police shut down the area to allow emergency crews to deal with the crash.

Police said they couldn’t immediately provide further details and urged people not to spread “unconfirmed reports” about the crash.

Police say they haven’t received any reports of any deaths, and don’t have a specific number of injuries yet. They say it is too early to say what caused the car to crash into the crowd.

The regional Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper reported that witnesses said the driver drove around a barrier blocking off traffic from the parade, but that it wasn’t yet clear whether he intentionally headed toward the crowd.

Switzerland was once a bastion of relative liberty. Then moonbattery crept up into the mountains. Now, due to a Swiss Federal Court ruling, clicking Facebook like or share buttons could constitute a crime if authorities disapprove of the content.

Via Gizmodo:

The defendant in the case had liked posts that accused animal rights activist Erwin Kessler of being an anti-Semite and a neo-Nazi, the Local reported, with a Zurich court ruling in 2017 that he must pay a fine for helping spread defamatory content. (Kessler was convicted of racial discrimination in 1998.) According to Bloomberg, the Federal Court upheld the Zurich court’s ruling that liking and sharing content can constitute defamation, writing that “activating both ‘like’ and ‘share’ buttons in Facebook can improve visibility and thereby contribute to the dissemination within the social network of marked content.”

That means you cannot safely like or share anything without being able to prove in court that it is accurate. This would soon put an end to liking and sharing anything that could be construed as even remotely controversial from the point of view of the leftist ruling class. The point is to reduce the Internet to uninteresting politically correct pabulum, like public broadcasting.

Kessler has not yet been given a chance to prove that his accusations are true. But since few people have the time or money to justify to a hostile court that everything they like or share is factually correct, accuracy is not the issue. Not being offensive to liberals is the issue.

Chancellor Angela Merkel’s embattled Christian-Democrats (CDU) suffered its worst loss ever in the left-leaning German city of Hamburg, sliding to third place behind the Greens during Sunday’s election.

According to a tally of regional public-service broadcasters ARD, the Social-Democrats (SPD) remained the strongest party in Hamburg with a 39.1 percent share of the votes, despite losing 8 percentage points.

Merkel’s CDU only garnered 11.2 percent of the vote, representing a drop of 4.7 percentage points from the last election. CDU conceded second place in the city to the Greens, who seem to have grabbed the combined losses of the aforementioned two parties, almost doubling their share of the vote to 24.2 percent in the city-state.

The CDU’s losses indicate that the recent resignation from the party presidency of Merkel’s protégée, Annegret Kremp-Karrenbauer (nicknamed AKK), only plunged the party into a deeper crisis. She was pressured into resigning after a scandal in the eastern state of Thuringia had damaged the party.

The CDU there caused consternation by voting with the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) to elect a regional leader, a move Merkel described as “unforgivable” and against the CDU’s values.

The AfD managed to remain in parliament by scoring 5.3 percent of the vote, which is just above the bare minimum of 5 percent they needed to stay in government.

CDU general secretary Paul Ziemiak said it was a “bitter day” for the party.

The Hansa city is one of the SPD’s staunchest strongholds in Germany, having been under Social-Democrat leadership for the most part since the end of World War II except for four years in the 1950s and the first decade of the 2000s.

During the latter period it was led by a Black-Green coalition of the CDU and the Green Party.

Analysts point out that the Green Party’s major victory could have been facilitated by climate activist Greta Thunberg who attended a rally there on Friday. The party has also been extremely pro-migrant, even advocating that Germany accept 150 million “climate refugees” over the coming years.

Despite its losses, the SPD, Merkel’s coalition partners at the federal level, will likely remain in power with the Greens, meaning that 54-year-old physician Peter Tschentscher will in the mayor’s seat he won in 2018, after his predecessor, Olaf Scholz left state politics to become federal minister of finance and vice chancellor of Germany in the fourth Merkel-government.
