The US continues to deliver lessons to the world about how the Deep State acts, to neutralise even presidents it does not like. For example, top US officials are telling the world to ignore President Trump’s tweets:
  https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/top-us-officials-tell-the-world-to-ignore-trumps-tweets/2018/02/18/bc605236-14a2-11e8-942d-16a950029788_story.html?utm_term=.fa630550c9d0 

“Amid global anxiety about President Trump’s approach to world affairs, U.S. officials had a message for a gathering of Europe’s foreign policy elite this weekend: Pay no attention to the man tweeting behind the curtain.
U.S. lawmakers — both Democrats and Republicans — and top national security officials in the Trump administration offered the same advice publicly and privately, often clashing with Trump’s Twitter stream: The United States remains staunchly committed to its European allies, is furious with the Kremlin about election interference and isn’t contemplating a preemptive strike on North Korea to halt its nuclear program.

     The horrible grooming rape gangs of Britain, comprised mainly of migrants are still operating in Britain, with an average of 177 cases of abuse  a day, like something out of a war zone:

     Here is some relevant comments about the ethnic dimension of all of this:

     With the libtards falling over themselves at the mere thought of America building a wall to protect its borders, this article is a good summary of border protection walls around the world, including in Israel:
  http://www.vdare.com/articles/border-walls-work-all-over-the-world?content=Wall%20in%201961

     Two thirds of all of the countries of the world have similar types of wall/border protection, and this has been practiced for thousands of years, the Great Wall of China being the iconic example, but Hadrian’s Wall on the Anglo-Scottish border is perhaps closer to home. The article has numerous examples of border fences and walls from across the world, which are all effective. Those who want open borders typically are not consistent, seeking to lock their cars and houses, denying access to the local poor. In fact, the open border crowd usually are rich elites who live behind high security walls themselves. Only we, the peasants, should suffer under globalisation, according to them.

     Greens hate individual freedom and private property. They dream of a centralised unelected global government, financed by taxes on developed nations, and controlled by all the tentacles of the UN.

     No longer is real pollution of our environment the main Green concern. The key slogan of the Green religion is “sustainable development”, with them defining what is sustainable.

     Here is: “Face the Wall” Antifa Call for Public Execution of D.C Trump Supporters #ANightForFreedom:
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXGw86zW19E

     You can hear Antifa commos wanting public executions of Trump supporters. But, some prefer to drown their opponents:

     There is much to report in transgender news. For example, parents of a 17-year old lost custody of her for opposing her wish for medical treatment:
  http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/02/19/parents-lose-custody-of-daughter-for-opposing-transgender-medical-treatments/

“Judge Sylvia Sieve Hendon of Hamilton County, Ohio has allowed the girl to be taken into the custody of her grandparents – who support her medical transition – allowing them to make decisions that will further along her physical transition to the opposite sex.

     It took some time, but Tony Abbott at last, now that he has nothing to lose, is taking on the immigration monster:
  https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/feb/19/tony-abbott-renews-push-to-cut-migration-to-improve-quality-of-life 

“Tony Abbott has seized on Peter Dutton’s claim that Australia needs to cut its migration intake and signalled he will renew his push to do so by linking migrant numbers to quality of living issues. On Monday the former prime minister said he would make the case for cutting migration to improve “stagnant wages, unaffordable housing and clogged infrastructure” in a speech in Sydney on Tuesday.

     There is only a slight murmur about the issue of the infiltration of China into the university sector in Australia, Australia being hyper-colonised and the intellectual elites being long seduced by the cult of Asianisation. But America is not so numb:
  https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/global-opinions/waking-up-to-chinas-infiltration-of-american-colleges/2018/02/18/99d3bee8-13f7-11e8-9570-29c9830535e5_story.html?hpid=hp_no-name_opinion-card-d%3Ahomepage%2Fstory&utm_term=.f5a395cfd338 

“China’s massive foreign influence campaign in the United States takes a long view, sowing seeds in American institutions meant to blossom over years or even decades. That’s why the problem of Chinese financial infusions into U.S. higher education is so difficult to grasp and so crucial to combat.

     The Left’s support of Islam, including radical Islam, is now well know. It is therefore not surprising to hear that Jeremy Corbyn said that Islamophobia, the latest form of “racism’ is a major social problem. He said this at the Finsbury Park mosque in north London, where he gave a speech. And he said, not forgetting any one:

““The rise of extremist right-wing groups is a very serious threat not just to Muslims but to all minorities, and in fact to all Britons, and to the interwoven fabric that holds this country together. The way to combat this is to have open and frank dialogue; barring and banning can only breed further hate and division.”

     Parliaments, both state and federal have the power to confer judicial power on various tribunals. Today the vast number of tribunals that litter the judicial landscape do much of the heavy lifting in administrative and related fields of law: immigration review matters, guardianship law, consumer dispute issues, Centrelink review matters, and much more. Often tribunals have a flexibility that courts lack, with a review of the merits of the case, hearing it from the start, rather than just reviewing an issue of law. The Administrative Appeals Tribunal is a case, in reviewing Centrelink and other administrative matters.

     State parliaments can confer, or give, judicial power to State tribunals, but such tribunals cannot exercise Federal jurisdiction, that is, decide on “Federal; matters, because that would be contrary to the Constitution. However, there are areas where matters get tricky, such as seen in the case of Burns v Corbet; Gaynor v Burns [2017] NSWCA 3 (3 February 2017), where there is a dispute between residencts of two states, arising under state law determined by a State tribunal, the tribunal exercising judicial power, but  not being a Chapter III Court, as defined by the constitution. Is there an implied limitation on the legislative power of the State relative to sections 75 and 76 of the Constitution on such tribunals which are not Chapter III Courts? Is a State law which confers judicial power on such tribunals inconsistent with section 39 of the Judiciary Act 1903?

     I hated John, Paul George and goofy Ringo at the time, but, boy, I prefer them to the new Beatles:
  http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5374285/Who-ISIS-Beatles-jihadis.html 

     Alexanda Kotey and El Shafee Elsheikh, the remaining members of the notorious execution group nicknamed “The Beatles” were detained by US-allied Kurdish militia fighters in January this year. Mohammed Emwazi -  nicknamed Jihadi John - and Aine Davis, were called The Beatles as born in Britain, like the fab four, they had British accents.

     Who can forget B. Hussein Obama, former prezzy of the USA, and there are some Leftoids that still think that he is, or should be. Others opt for Queen bee Hillary.

     In any case famous people like this indulge in having their portraits painted by politically correct artists. Obama and wifey have had a paint job done by African American artists. Obama was painted by New York painter Kehinde Wiley, known for his naturalistic artwork depicting black people in heroic and triumphant poses, painted Obama seated in a sea of leaves. Weird, indeed.

     Facebook continues charging down the road of political correctness, with blocks imposed on various sites which it does not like:   https://www.facebook.com/zuck/posts/10104501954164561

As Zucky himself says: “For example, take the Wall Street Journal or New York Times. Even if you don’t read them or don’t agree with everything they write, most people have confidence that they’re high quality journalism. On the flip side, there are blogs that have intense followings but are not widely trusted beyond their core audience. We will show those publications somewhat less.”

     There has been yet another US mass shooting, this time as Nikolas Cruz gunned down 17 of his school “mates”:
  https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/fla-shooting-suspect-had-a-history-of-explosive-anger-depression-killing-animals/2018/02/15/06f05710-1291-11e8-9570-29c9830535e5_story.html?utm_term=.b927da28efea

     Cruz has a history of violence and depression, and like most other “postal’ shooters (mass killers), was probably being treated with strong psychiatric drugs such as Prozac. Nevertheless, the mainstream media, and even some alternative sites had reported that Cruz, part Hispanic was a “white nationalist” (although various white nationalist sites reject this):
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-02-15/florida-school-shooter-linked-white-supremacist-group 

     Whoaaha…this is a problem. There is a major philosophical clash between two intellectual giants, loved by all of us at this site: Jordan Peterson and that great defender of the West, Canadian academic Ricardo Duchesne:
   https://www.counter-currents.com/2018/02/jordan-petersons-rejection-of-identity-politics-allows-white-ethnocide/
  http://www.eurocanadian.ca/2018/02/jordan-petersons-rejection-of-identity-politics-equals-ethnocide-whites.html

     Peterson argues that he is not an Alt Righter because he rejects identity politics, and instead is a classical liberal believing in the rights of the individual. So far, so good. From this position he has done enormous good critiquing all matter of politically correct nonsense. But, there is a limitation to this, as Duchesne notes:

     I hope that most readers at this site have been poisoned at the thought of the modern university. I report the absurdities and injustices whenever material comes my way. The latest:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-02-15-bizarre-hiring-practices-prove-how-universities-are-now-social-justice-indoctrination-centers.html

“Over the past several years, we’ve seen America’s universities essentially turn into social justice training camps, where teaching about diversity is more important than U.S. history and making sure that all students have a safe space to turn to is more important than making sure they have the skills they need to be successful in “the real world.” It shouldn’t come as a surprise, therefore, that some schools are now hiring faculty members based solely on their commitment to social justice.

     I covered the issue of AI becoming super smart and replacing humans in a previous article. As a footnote to that I have noted that this article:
  http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/father-of-artificial-intelligence-singularity-is-less-than-30-years-away_02152018  

     Many AI gurus are quoted as giving their predictions about the year when robots become smarter than humans. The worst case scenario is that this will happen by 2030, which is not too long away in apocalyptic terms. It is incredible that this problem has even arisen, which shows the danger of allowing science and technology to be under the control of the evil elites and forces of global capitalism.

     The Muhammad Code (Feral House, 2016), by Harold Bloom, continues his long-term research into war and human violence:
  https://www.amazon.com/Muhammad-Code-Desert-Prophet-Brought/dp/1627310363 

     In this highly readable, but still well-referenced book, Bloom details how Islam has pursued an agenda of conquest for 1,400 years. For example, by the time of the death of the prophet in 632 AD, Islam had conquered the biggest empire in history, an empire 11 times the size of the conquests of Alexander the Great, five times the size of the Roman Empire, and seven times the size of the United States.

     Another article commented about the Obama painting, but I came by this exposure of the painter, or alleged painter black, Kehinde Wiley:
  http://www.libtards.news/2018-02-13-black-artist-who-painted-the-official-obama-portrait-a-racist-say-critics.html  

“Unbeknownst to most Americans who were ogling over his paintings of the Obamas, revealed Monday at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C., Wiley is known in the art underworld for two previous pieces that loosely reference a story in the Book of Judith, which involves a beautiful woman who seduces an invading Assyrian general and, before he is able to destroy their land, gets him drunk and decapitates him.

     The media, preoccupied with Trump, endless racism and the winter Olympics, have forgotten about North Korea, until now: 
  https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/oct/17/north-korean-un-envoy-says-nuclear-war-may-break-out-at-any-moment

“North Korea’s deputy UN ambassador has warned that the situation on the Korean peninsula “has reached the touch-and-go point and a nuclear war may break out any moment”. Kim In-ryong told the UN general assembly’s disarmament committee that North Korea is the only country in the world that has been subjected to “such an extreme and direct nuclear threat” from the United States since the 1970s and said the country has the right to possess nuclear weapons in self-defence.
