Key congressman seeks probe into why 80 percent of U.S. foreign investor visas going to China

 

House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-Penn.) have asked the an investigative arm of Congress to investigate China’s involvement in America’s EB-5 Immigrant Investor Visa Program.

In a letter Monday to the Comptroller General of the U.S. Government Accountability Office, the lawmakers said the program was meant to encourage foreign capital investment and job creation in America but it appears it is being exploited by the Chinese Communist Party.

“Although the EB-5 program’s goal of stimulating capital investment and job creation in the United States is laudable, it has become clear in recent years that the CCP may be abusing the program to gain access to U.S. permanent residency for their members,” the letter says. “Between 2012 and 2018, 80 percent of the nearly 10,000 EB-5 visas available each year went to Chinese-born investors.”

 

SUPREME COURT REDEFINES SEX DISCRIMINATION TO INCLUDE LGBTQ

It is a sad day in the United States of America.  Let me say I as a Christian do not want harm or loss of job to anyone in America, however when a Church or other Christian organization would have to hire a gay person that is a wrong.  Deeply held morality from bodies of faith should and must be kept.  What is even more shocking  is that a conservative justice Gorsuch appointed by Trump has joined the libs on the court.  Roberts is and always will be a loose cannon, but Gorsucch?  One never knows the way an appointee will vote.  I will be curious to know if this will include hiring of LGBTQ persons or not.  If so, it will send ramifications through the faith community.  Churches should have the right and employees to hire who they want.

I understand this ruling was on a certain particular case that had nothing to do with faith institutions, but does anyone think it will  end there.  No, they are and always have been coming for Churches.

 

 

Trump and Religious Freedom

PRESIDENT TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER ON ADVANCING RELIGIOUS FREEDOM

WASHINGTON, D.C. – On Tuesday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to further protect religious freedom around the world. On behalf of the over two million members and supporters of the Faith & Freedom Coalition, we commend President Trump for making it absolutely clear that protecting religious freedom is a domestic and foreign policy priority.

The executive order outlines that the U.S. will budget at least $50 million per year for programs that advance international religious freedom. The White House will expand available economic tools to support our allies on religious freedom and address bad actors, whether by increasing religious freedom programming, realigning foreign assistance to better reflect country circumstances, restricting the issuance of visas, or deploying Global Magnitsky sanctions where appropriate. This order will also mandate more federal employees who work abroad to undergo training on international religious freedom.

“We are grateful to have a leader such as President Trump, who has made it so clear that he supports religious freedom and wants everyone to worship God freely,” said Timothy Head, executive director of the Faith & Freedom Coalition. “Our brothers and sisters are facing severe persecution around the world for their faith. Through this Executive Order, Trump is showing that he cares for the persecuted and is reaching out to protect and help them.”

In September 2019, President Donald J. Trump made history as the first American President to convene a meeting of global leaders at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to address International Religious Freedom.  The President was clear when he called upon “the nations of the world to end religious persecution.”  This Executive Order fully integrates the President’s vision – a vigorous defense of International Religious Freedom rights for all – into key aspects of United States foreign policy. Yet again, President Trump is taking a decisive action to keep his promise to people of faith around the world.

Today

I had forgotten that Rod Rosenstein was going to be grilled by the Senate today on the Russia investigation and the Mueller report. I just turned it on for about 35 seconds of useless pandering. Let me say this, don’t bother watching you’re not gonna find out anything that you don’t already know. You know the old saying birds of a feather flock together…

Who knows maybe I’ll be wrong.
Still waiting for some high-ranking Democrat to come out and denounce the violence and destruction by the mobs. No one will, and of this I am certain.
It is funny and I’m sure just a coincidence that Biden, Clinton and the Dem leadership started wearing black mask last week before the riots started.
Why does New York arrest anyone if they turn them loose within a couple of hours.  Getting them back to the brick piles I guess.

The Press

It is too bad the media is too  concerned with all things Trump to actually do their job.  We pride our self on being a free country and having a free press.  We do not.  Our press in America is nothing more than a mouthpiece for the Socialist Democratic Party.  They know nothing of the truth and constantly push a far left radical agenda that includes government control in all areas of our life.  The media is pro death, (kill the economy, small business, personal freedoms,) and pro slavery (contact tracking, stay at home, wear your mask, wait for the next wave of the virus.)  I like to call them Pravda.  If you don’t know what I mean by that, google the old Soviet Union.

Our media resembles the  media in China and the Old Soviet Union, than America. 

Sad but true!
