'Tainted Heroes:' New Film Exposes Takeover of SA by Communist Terrorists
[New American] A new documentary by the South African civil rights group AfriForum exposes uncomfortable truths about revolutionary Nelson Mandela's African National Congress (ANC), including the fact that much of the Soviet-backed party's violence was directed at black people who refused to fall in line. The film, Tainted Heroes, also shows the unfathomable brutality employed by the ANC, its terrorist wing, and the South African Communist Party that controlled it behind the scenes in the effort to seize political and economic power over South Africa. Especially noteworthy is the ANC's brutal war against black organizations and individuals viewed as rivals.
Film at this link.

Some 35,000 people have taken to the streets of Brasilia to express their discontent with the current Brazilian leadership and to demand early presidential elections, Globo reported.

#1  So "rules the waves" no longer has it's own ships to carry helicopters?

#2  Sad, but they do have four boats that carry the end of the world as we know it.

Same boats have three bars, imagine that, 3.

DOJ Budget Ramps Up Funding for Eminent Domain ‘Land Acquisition' in Potential Effort to Clear Way for Border Wall
[Breitbart] Tuesday’s Department of Justice budget proposal asks Congress for $1.8 million to "meet litigation, acquisition, and appraisal demands during the construction along the border between Mexico and the United States."

The money will be used to devote 20 new staff members, including 12 attorneys, to the Environmental and Natural Resources Division’s Land Acquisition Section (LAS). This small section of the DOJ handles litigation that arises when the federal government uses its "eminent domain" power to seize land for public projects.
Looks like they're serious. Maybe.

#1  Go back to the books, use the authorizations employed to acquire land after Pearl Harbor. Declare unincorporated land for the first mile from the border to be under military authority. Post it accordingly.

#2  Off topic but where was that picture taken? Looks like some rideable waves there. I might have to buy that castle.

#3  Oh, I see. It's China. And, of course, their wall was a rip roaring success!
