Secure Freedom Minute

We are beginning to get a sense of the full magnitude of not only Hillary Clinton’s breach of her sworn commitments to safeguard American secrets during her disastrous stint as Secretary of State, but also of her betrayal of her country, as well. 

Hillary’s conscious decision to violate secure communications protocols – enabled by, among others, her Muslim Brotherhood-tied top aide, Huma Abedin – was reportedly and predictably exploited by Communist China, and probably other hostile nations.

Evidently, every one of her official and personal emails was obtained in real time by a Chinese intelligence front operating out of Northern Virginia.  That means that the highly classified information she received and transmitted, as well as other sensitive correspondence was certainly compromised and probably exploited.

At a minimum, none of those implicated, including Hillary Clinton herself, should ever have access again to state secrets.

Lawfare is an instrument of political warfare long wielded by the radical left and their unlikely Sharia-supremacist allies. It uses lawsuits to suppress, bankrupt and, if possible, destroy their opponents.

Elaine Donnelly’s invaluable Center for Military Readiness is under such attack for effectively opposing one of the most lunatic of Barack Obama’s wrecking operations aimed at the U.S. military – namely, his insistence that the armed forces submit to the so-called “transgender” agenda.

Lawfare is being waged against President Trump, too, simply because he has tried to prevent the harm to the readiness, good order and discipline and morale of servicemembers that is inevitably associated with accommodating individuals with gender-related disorders.

The Commander-in-Chief and Ms. Donnelly’s Center for Military Readiness need our strong support for their respective fights in court against such social engineering at the expense of our national security.

The death of my old friend John McCain evoked mixed emotions. On the one hand, there is a sense of bittersweet happiness for the Senator and his family that the suffering which marked his final years is at an end. 

On the other hand, I am saddened that John’s passing evidently was not accompanied by an acknowledgement of a serious strategic error he made, let alone an apology to someone he very uncivilly wronged in the process.

In 2012, Sen. McCain took to the Senate floor to denounce then- Representative Michele Bachmann for having posed officially entirely legitimate questions about the Muslim Brotherhood’s influence on, and penetration of, the U.S. government. 

That attack contributed to Ms. Bachmann’s premature departure from Congress.  Worse, it chilled to this day the necessary oversight of and response to our Sharia-supremacist enemies, domestic as well as foreign.

American voters are being encouraged to endorse socialists and their agenda this Fall. It happens that, at this moment, several national experiments with applied socialism are bearing predictably bitter fruit. Notably, once-wealthy Venezuela has joined Zimbabwe as an economic basket-case, thanks to the redistribution of wealth enforced by political repression.

Another nation, South Africa, is now poised to join their ranks, probably with even bloodier consequences. Its government is expropriating without compensation the farms that have been highly productive and well-managed by white Afrikaners, entrusting them instead to impoverished blacks wholly unprepared to run them. The process is unleashing violence against the minority and imperils one of the continent’s most important breadbaskets.

President Trump is right to recognize that this train-wreck, like socialist travesties elsewhere, will not end well. Costs we can impose for going there may help avert it.

Congressional Democrats are reportedly going to run this fall against alleged corruption on the part of Donald Trump and other Republicans. Inhabitants of glass houses shouldn’t throw such stones.

After all, one-out-of-five members of the House Democratic caucus employed the information technology services of a ring of Pakistani nationals that have engaged in illegal activities.  Some of their staff and office expenditures have been implicated and their official and personal communications compromised.

Worse yet, the Pakistanis have ties to their government and presumably its intelligence service.

Incredibly, this “House IT scandal” has been largely suppressed to this point, not only by the Democrats involved but by the House GOP leadership, the Department of Justice and, most recently, an Obama-appointed federal judge.

The ominous implications of this travesty will out, however.  The question is when.  Democrats’ stone-casting should ensure it’s before November’s election.
