◼ With Donald Trump proposing a ban on Muslims entering the UK, the left is desperate for sob stories like this. Except this one backfired rather quickly, as the Daily Mail reported: - The Analytical Economist/Allen West
However, it has since emerged that a Facebook page claiming links to radical Islamist groups was set up by someone who has lived at the family’s postal address, according to ITV News.Ed Straker at The American Thinker pointed out that the Facebook account in question also posted a photo of an FBI logo with the phrase “Federal Bureau of Islam” underneath it. It seems unlikely that someone would be oblivious to a hacker uploading photos on their Facebook account.
The account, which includes information suggesting it may have been published as a joke, was in the name of Hamza Hussain – a first name shared by Mr Mahmood’s 18-year-old son. It reportedly lists the job titles ‘supervisor at Taliban and leader at al-Qaeda’.
When asked about the account, Mr Mahmood believed hackers may have been to blame, adding: ‘That could be anything, maybe a mistake.’
...It has also been suggested the move by US authorities could be due to Mr Mahmood’s brother having been refused entry to Israel eight years ago, but no official explanation has been given by the US Embassy.
That’s not the only suspicious thing about Mahmood’s family, as reported by Breitbart:
It has now been revealed that his relative in California, Muhammad Mahmood, prayed at the same mosque as U.S.-born terrorist Syed Farook and his Pakistani born wife Tashfeen – believed to be the Tablighi Jamaat-run Dar Al Uloom Islamiyah mosque....

Capitol Update: Monday, December 21, 2015
I can’t believe this will be my last President’s Message. The past two years have gone by so quickly but they have been two of the most memorable years of my life. I have had the opportunity to travel across California speaking to so many outstanding clubs and making so any new wonderful friends. It has been a privilege to serve as your CFRW President these past two years.
Our theme has been Working Together to Make a Difference and I have been so pleased to see so many of our clubs working together. That is the only way we can be successful in electing our Republican candidates and also the only way we can grow our clubs. We are a very unique organization and we need to remember we are not only a political organization, we are also a sisterhood and we are here to help each other and work with each other. What ever we do we work hard for the success of our clubs, our Federation, California and America, not our own personal power!
I want to thank each of our hard working Executive Committee members and Board of Directors. Without your support we would not have been successful these past two years. We had informative and exciting Board of Directors meetings, workshops and a very successful Biennial Convention. We are so proud of all the clubs and members who donated to our CFRW Project, the All- Terrain Track Chair Project. When we first decided to have a CFRW Project we thought it might take us two years to donate one chair but with your help we were able to donate two chairs and we are hoping to do one more chair next year. Our clubs helped to stop the super majority in Sacramento and elected more Republicans in 2014, our membership outreach chairs continue to engage more Republican women from different backgrounds so CFRW can represent the great diversity that is California. We were thrilled that two of our nominees won NFRW Awards, one for the Dorothy Kabis Internship and one for the Betty Rendel Scholarship. Thanks to all of your hard work CFRW was also very successful at the NFRW Biennial Convention winning the Outstanding State Campaign Award, the Campaign Volunteer Award for our 265,466 volunteer hours and once again we are a State of Excellence. I had the privilege to be one of the five finalists for the 2015 Ronald Reagan Leadership Award. Over the past two years we had more members attending the NFRW Board of Directors meetings and we also had many more members and guests attending the Convention in Phoenix.
I was thrilled to be asked to serve as the NFRW Membership Committee Chair by NFRW President elect Carrie Almond and I am excited about helping our clubs continue to grow.
I want to congratulate all the 2016-2017 Executive Committee Officers and wish them all the very best! I know President Elect Shirley Mark will do an outstanding job as President and I am looking forward to two very successful and exciting years.
Without the support and encouragement from so many members I would never have had the privilege to serve as your CFRW President . Thank you for all you have done the past two years to make CFRW an even stronger organization.
Best Wishes to you and your family: A Very Merry Christmas & A Very Happy, Healthy and Blessed New Year
Thank you for all you do,
Roseann

Iranian hackers infiltrated the control system of a small dam less than 20 miles from New York City two years ago, sparking concerns that reached to the White House, according to former and current U.S. officials and experts familiar with the previously undisclosed incident.
The breach came amid attacks by hackers linked to Iran’s government against the websites of U.S. banks, and just a few years after American spies had damaged an Iranian nuclear facility with a sophisticated computer worm called Stuxnet. In October 2012, then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta called out Iran’s hacking, prompting fears of cyberwar.
The still-classified dam intrusion illustrates a top concern for U.S. officials as they enter an age of digital state-on-state conflict. America’s power grid, factories, pipelines, bridges and dams—all prime targets for digital armies—are sitting largely unprotected on the Internet. And, unlike in a traditional war, it is sometimes difficult to know whether or where an opponent has struck. In the case of the dam hack, federal investigators initially thought the target might have been a much larger dam in Oregon....

There are stunning shifts in the responses among Democrats: 45 percent favor banning Muslims if Trump’s name is not mentioned, yet when the plan is identified as Trump’s, support drops to 25 percent.
Among Republicans, views hold steady: 71 percent favor it when attributed to Trump vs. 72 percent for the generic proposal.”
Only Republican voters actually bothered to think independently of Party lines, supporting the plan regardless of if they knew whose idea it was.
Democrats on the other hand were split on the issue. It seems like they don’t actually mind the policy, they just don’t like Trump.

Genius of Cruz's immigration plan is it uses a few tweaks to existing law to virtually ensure self-deportation beyond visa overstay deportation.

Despite the best efforts of the Democratic National Committee, news broke out of the three-way debate in New Hampshire Saturday night.
Last night's #Demdebate on ABC attracted just 6.7 million viewers. Tuesday's #GOPdebate on CNN attracted 18 million. https://t.co/8bqglUbxq6

Even up against a couple of tomato can opponents in Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could not prevent herself from making two major, unforced errors.
The first came with Clinton's astonishing declaration that "We are now where we finally need to be in the fight against ISIS."...
Hillary's bear hug of her own Libyan fiasco as the country erupts in explosion after explosion of refugees and terrorists signals that she is clueless about the electorate's assessment of President Obama's and her foreign policy — from her "Russian reset" button to the Egyptian dizziness to the Benghazi fail and subsequent descent of the country into Islamic State Land 2.0.
Even more astonishing was Hillary's pure invention of yet another false video narrative — this time of a non-existent video of Donald Trump talking about Islam and Muslims. Hillary declared during the debate that Islamists were using it to recruit new radicals.
That "video" doesn't exist. Fact checkers from both the Washington Post and New York Times concluded Hillary's statement was a lie. A. Lie. But she couldn't help herself. On a national stage in a staged exhibition of a pretend debate she still was compelled to lie. Astonishing.
As was her campaign chairman John Podesta's resolute "I stand by it" on "Meet the Press" Sunday morning when Chuck Todd pressed him on the obvious falsehood told by his candidate. The first rule of holes — When you're in one, stop digging! — does not exist in Clintonworld. They just keep digging and digging deeper even when they don't have to. Even when to do so reinforces the central worry that voters have about Hillary: That she cannot be trusted.
So Hillary in a single performance drew attention to her biggest policy failure and her biggest character flaw — by lying about a non-existent video even as she pretends Libya is something other than an Islamic State playground.

Humboldt wasn’t just a prescient proto-environmentalist whose work happened to inspire emotion; he was a thinker who believed nature and imagination are inseparable. At a time when other scientists were searching for universal laws to understand nature, Humboldt insisted that “nature must be experienced through feeling.” Those who wanted to understand the world only through reason, Humboldt wrote in 1810 to Germany’s most celebrated poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, “will never get close to it.” Humboldt wanted to excite a “love of nature.” Nature, he explained, had to be described with scientific accuracy but without being “deprived thereby of the vivifying breath of imagination.”
