Secure Freedom Minute

The catastrophic fires raging out of control in Los Angeles are a product of multiple factors ranging from high winds to empty hydrants.There’s growing evidence, however, that people have deliberately torching property. At least one is in police custody. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the greatest arsonist of all time. He’s Communist dictator Xi Jinping. He’s been engaged in “strategic arson” worldwide – igniting with his friends conflagrations in Ukraine and the Middle East and throwing sparks in other tinderboxes from South Korea to Guyana. 
 
Xi’s got tens of thousands of soldiers in America. Could one or more of them be putting Los Angeles to the torch? Either way, the only reason they are here is to sow chaos and mass destruction.We must help local authorities find and neutralize them before America is set alight, literally or figuratively.This is Frank Gaffney.

President-elect Donald Trump held an electrifying press conference Tuesday. In its course, he described the vital importance of Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal to the national and economic security of the United States.
While it remains to be seen what Mr. Trump will do once in office, just by talking about those interests he has set the stage for long-overdue corrective action on the rampant violation of America’s historic Monroe Doctrine, aimed at keeping hostile powers like China, Russia and Iran out of our hemisphere.
His remarks have also given further reason for such foreign enemies, among others, to try to prevent Donald Trump’s return to power. We must deny them a possible free-shot on him – and virtually the entirety of our national leadership – by forgoing the inauguration planned for outdoors on the West Front of the Capitol on January 20 th.

Official narratives this week in Washington marking Jimmy Carter’s passing reflect a highly selective rendering of his White House years.
If the past is indeed prologue, his many grave mistakes must be recalled, not just his few positive achievements. Three debacles, and what has flowed from them, remain particular blights on our national security and the planet.
Carter’s administration embraced the Ayatollah Khomeini, only to see his revolutionaries hold Americans hostage, enslave the people of Iran under Sharia tyranny and foster jihadist terror worldwide.
As President Trump is warning, Carter surrendered the strategically vital Panama Canal, now in Chinese hands. Carter’s weakness encouraged the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, spawning five decades of chaos, war, and terrorism there.
Basically, the only thing one can say for Jimmy Carter’s presidency is that it wasn’t as complete a failure as Joe Biden’s.

Last night, the Biden administration sent eleven Yemeni jihadists held for years at the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to the Persian Gulf nation of Oman. This step is the latest effort by the outgoing president’s team to undermine his successor – who wisely kept “Gitmo” open – and to sabotage the national security.Team Biden hopes to get the remaining fifteen prisoners out of Gitmo and shutter it before Trump takes office. That would foreclose the option of incarcerating there other dangerous jihadists and trying them in offshore military tribunals rather than civilian courts – thereby denying them constitutional rights to which prisoners of war should not be entitled.President-elect Trump should serve notice now that any country that accepts the remaining jihadists at Guantanamo Bay will be deemed to be a hostile power by the United States of America and treated accordingly.This is Frank Gaffney.
 

As the days of what has purported to be the “Biden presidency” run out of the allotted time, its diabolical character is increasingly on display.
It seems that whoever is actually running the U.S. government – and the mere fact that we don’t know who it is says a lot about our parlous state – is lying to us, doubling down on policies explicitly rejected at the polls by a significant majority of voters and otherwise trying to screw up the incoming administration.
The question occurs: Does all this effectively translate into a coup against the Constitution and the peaceful transfer of power it prescribes? And, if so, are the people responsible capable of demonically and chaotically sabotaging at least the timing of Donald Trump’s inauguration, if not its actualization?
Unless they’re precluded from doing so, the record suggests the answer, frighteningly, is “Yes.”

In recent days, terrorists have violently attacked sites in New Orleans and Las Vegas. Communist Chinese hackers have gained access to the Treasury Department’s data.
And unidentified drones have been flying with impunity over some seventeen military bases and other sensitive real estate. At a minimum, they are likely spying on the facilities below but could be practicing attacks on those sites.
Meanwhile, a Pentagon report just revealed Communist China’s military build-up rivals Adolf Hitler’s. And we know how the Nazis’ unbridled war preparations ended.
These developments are among, conservatively, eleven threat vectors capable of causing chaos in this country before Donald Trump’s inauguration – possibly impacting its timing and the resulting transfer of power.
We need patriotic Americans to be alert to these dangers and crowdsource with their local authorities the situational awareness needed to mitigate them.
See something. Do something.
