Iran has completely stopped harassing US ships now that strong Trump replaced weakling Obama


Published on Sep 20, 2016

Thomas Lifson  "For all the concessions President Obama was offering Iran for his “nuclear deal” -- $150 billion, for instance – Iran treated the US with contempt, harassing and even taking into custody US ships in the Persian Gulf. The adage that weakness is provocative was proven true as (via the Daily Caller):
During the final years of the Obama administration, Iranian gunboats regularly harassed U.S. ships, with three dozen such interactions occurring in 2016. (snip)
The worst incident occurred in January 2016, when the Iranians captured two U.S. Navy riverine patrol boats and 10 sailors.
Riverine patrol boat of the type that was captured by the Iranians

"But that’s nothing but a humiliating memory now that America has a president who won’t stand for it:
During President Donald Trump’s first year in office, the number of annual incidents dropped to 14, a decrease of about 60 percent. So far in 2018, there has not been a single case of harassment, the U.S. Navy told Fox News.
"The change by the former bullies is completely understandable:
Trump commented on this issue on the campaign trail, saying, “With Iran, when they circle our beautiful destroyers with their little boats, and they make gestures at our people, that they shouldn’t be allowed to make, they will be shot out of the water.”
The first incident of the Trump administration occurred in July 2017. A U.S. Navy warship fired a warning shot at an Iranian gunboat that came within 150 yards of the American vessel.
The Navy publicly acknowledged the changes in Iran’s behavior in March.
“It seems like they’ve absolutely made a conscious decision to give us more space,” Navy Cmdr. William Urban, spokesman for U.S. Naval Forces Central Command, told reporters. “That is definitely a change in their behavior.”
“ 'Peace through strength” is not an empty slogan, it is a strategy that works."

Feb 11, 2016: Iran Mocks US Sailors in Revolution Day Parade
. . . "Iranian state media released images yesterday that it said shows one of the U.S. sailors weeping while in detention. The State Department expressed its “disgust” at Iran’s decision to release that footage in a statement to ABC News. Last month, Defense Secretary Ash Carter said he was “very, very angry” after Iran first released footage of the U.S. sailors and said the U.S would not have done the same to the Iranians, had the roles been reversed." . . .

Iran Harassed The US Navy Under Obama. Here’s Why It Stopped Under Trump  . . . "The “openly acknowledged there was a shift that happened roughly around the time we had our political transition,” Jonathan Schanzer, vice president of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, told Business Insider. “There was a status quo and the status quo changed.”
. . . "Instead, rushing U.S. ships and putting them on the defensive, as well as capturing sailors, works mainly for propaganda purposes for Iran, whose authoritarian regime controls the media and pushes a heavily anti-U.S. agenda." . . .

Democrats attack Jim Jordan; will this nation ever become sickened over the character of Democrats?

 I picture Obama-Soros fingerprints all over this. TD
This drops as Jordan is high in the running to succeed Paul Ryan for speaker and is being very tough pressing the FBI for answers about their surveillance and their bias against the Trump campaign. What a coincidence…  Via Weasel Zippers
Jim Jordan Accusers Have Sketchy History, Timing Of The Stories Suspect
  • One accuser, Mike DiSabato, is also being accused of bullying the widow of a Marine over a memorial fund set up in her husband’s name.
  • DiSabato is also facing a defamation lawsuit.
  • The other accuser, Dunyasha Yetts, served prison time for a $1.8 million fraud scheme
"Two former Ohio State University wrestlers accusing Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan of ignoring sexual misconduct by a university physician more than two decades ago have a history of failed business dealings, lawsuits, harassment allegations, and in the case of one accuser, an 18 month prison sentence for fraud.
"One of the former wrestlers, Mike DiSabato, is also being accused by the widow of a Marine who was killed in combat in Iraq of intimidating and bullying her over a memorial fund set up in her husband’s name.
“ 'I question the intent, the authenticity, the verity, that Mike DiSabato shares in any of his words or actions,” Karen Mendoza, the wife of Ray Mendoza — a former teammate of DiSabato’s who was killed in 2005 — said in a statement.
NBC News published an article on Tuesday, quoting DiSabato and Dunyasha Yetts, another former OSU wrestler, claiming that when Jordan worked as assistant wrestling coach at OSU, he ignored sexual abuse carried out by a university physician named Richard Strauss." . . 
NBC did note that Yetts served time in prison for a $1.8 million fraud scheme.
. . .  "Jordan is also receiving support from Russ Hellickson, who was OSU’s head wrestling coach when Jordan served as an assistant.
"Hellickson said in a statement issued through Jordan’s congressional office that neither he nor Jordan ignored sexual abuse of OSU wrestlers.
“ 'Neither Jim nor I would sidestep or avoid challenges for our wrestlers just because the circumstances were painful or uncomfortable — in fact, those are the kind of circumstances that motivated Jim the most,” reads the statement.
“ 'At no time while Jim Jordan was a coach with me at Ohio State did either of us ignore abuse of our wrestlers. That is not the kind of man Jim is, and it is not the kind of coach that I was,” said Hellickson, who called Jordan “the most honorable man I have ever known.' ” . . .

70 VIOLENT ACTS OF MEDIA INSPIRED TRUMP HATE

Maxine Waters Slammed After Kino Jimenez Is Accused of Assaulting a Trump Fan  But being a leftist she remains bulletproof, legally speaking.
“Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up. If you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd, and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” Waters said.
The list below does not include this recent jewel.



. . . "Richard, who lives in Orlando but was in San Antonio visiting friends, was thrust into the spotlight Wednesday after a video of the assault went viral on social media, racking up millions of views and thousands of comments."

Democrats leaving the Party in droves as #WalkAway campaign gains real momentum

California Political News And Views  "While the media is paying up a few naysayers in the GOP they are missing what might be a bigger story—the implosion of the Democrat party.  That party is torn between revolution/resistance and totalitarianism vs. freedom and liberal government.  For the first time the #WalkAway movement has come to public exposure.

“A movement to abandon liberalism and the Democratic Party has gained some serious traction after a video featuring a gay New York hairdresser went viral.

“ 'Once upon a time, I was a liberal. Well, to be honest, less than a year ago, I was still a liberal,” Brandon Straka said in the video seen by some five million people on Facebook and YouTube that ignited the #WalkAway campaign.
“ 'I reject a system which allows an ambitious, misinformed and dogmatic mob to suppress free speech, create false narratives, and apathetically steamroll over the truth,” he declared in the video. “I reject hate.”
"Brandon got it right—the modern Democrat Party is based on fear hate and bigotry, not equal rights or a free society—it is the nanny State on steroids—a Russia on the North American continent.  Russian collusion—that is the modern Democrat Party and honest Democrats are running from the corruption, tyranny and hatred of the Pelosi, Warren, Harris version of a political Party.
"Pass this along to your Democrat friends, let them know they too can say No to hate, violence and bigotry.  Join the Democrat #WalkAway movement.  Think CNN will report on this?  LOL" . . .

Founder of #WalkAway Campaign Brandon Straka ABUSED by Leftists at NYC Camera Shop

The Gateway Pundit


"The #WalkAway campaign began on Facebook after a handsome, gay hairdresser from New York named Brandon Straka posted a video last month explaining why he was walking away from the Democrat party.


"People are leaving the Democrat party in droves because all they have to offer is violence, intolerance, divisiveness and hatred.
"Brandon Straka’s videos are so popular that he is beginning to get recognized in public.
"On Thursday, Brandon Straka went into a camera shop to purchase some new supplies when he was abused by leftists working there; they recognized him and refused him service.
"This type of hatred and discrimination is precisely why Brandon Straka began the #WalkAway campaign in the first place.
"Brandon Straka tweeted: I’m shaking right now. I just went into a camera store to buy a camera and a light and mic, etc. and they recognized me from tv. I was refused service because they said it was for “alt right” purposes. That literally just happened.
I’m shaking right now. I just went into a camera store to buy a camera and a light and mic, etc. and they recognized me from tv. I was refused service because they said it was for “alt right” purposes. That literally just happened.
"Straka said he will not let what happened to him today slow him down. “We will prevail.”
