Dalai Lama has 'no worries' about Trump
ULAANBAATAR, Mongolia (AP) — Exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama said Wednesday he has "no worries" about Donald Trump's election as U.S. president, adding that he expects the businessman will align his future policies with global realities.
The 1989 Nobel Peace Prize winner's remarks were his most extensive yet regarding the election of the real estate tycoon and reality television star who has called for putting America's concerns first and shown little interest in Washington's traditional espousal of global democracy and social justice.
Commenting at the conclusion of a four-day visit to Mongolia, the leader of Tibetan Buddhism said he looks forward to seeing Trump at some point following the Jan. 20 inauguration. Such meetings usually draw protests from Beijing, which accuses the Dalai Lama of seeking to split Tibet from China.
The 81-year-old monk said he has always regarded the U.S. as the leader of the "free world" and wasn't concerned about remarks made by Trump during the election campaign. Some of those comments have been cited as offensive to Muslims, Hispanics and other U.S. minority groups.

India Sets Up Muslim Registry To Deport 20 Million Illegals
Indian officials are registering all illegal Muslim Bangladeshi residents in the state of Assam in an apparent bid to reduce the Muslim population.
“The Hindu rate of population growth is declining. But the Muslim rate is rising. Most of the Muslims here are from Bangladesh. If this continues, the Assamese Hindus will become a minority soon — we will lose our language, our culture, our identity,” Assam’s finance minister told The Washington Post.
Assam shares a long border with Bangladesh, with much of it consisting of wetlands easily crossed by boat. The majority of the Indian army and its border force are positioned hundreds of miles away on the Pakistani border, particularly clustered over the disputed territory of Kashmir.

ALERT: Just In About Recount
Just in, looks as though Soros/Clinton are behind this whole situation as if we couldn't guess this was the case to begin with, eh?
Sunday: Big News Day. Who Knew?
Just in from several sources along with the one above, Donald Trump's Administration is urging all ambassadors from several countries -- most concentrated on Haiti and Colombia -- to investigate the Clinton Foundation for their crimes against the people in their countries.
NY Post:“Haiti and Colombia will be key diplomatic posts for this because of all the money involved,” said the source."
It is no secret that over the last week, Norway and Australia have drastically reduced their donations to the nefarious foundation. After the publication of Clinton Cash, donations dropped by a staggering 37%. Why? Anyone can safely deduce the gig is up; however, now with her failure to become president, donors will not be promised anything more than speeches. Drying up the political collateral will mean no access to US resources in the Clinton Pay to Play schema has many predicting a further fall in donations as time marches on
What it means for all the investigators is his defunding provides them with more evidence to the real nature of the so-called charity. Right now it goes as follows: New York City, Little Rock, Arkansas, District of Columbia, Los Angeles and Miami FBI and AG offices are currently engaged in separate investigations, while the IRS is looking into them from their Dallas, Texas office. It has been confirmed all these investigations are still going full throttle.
In other news, Michigan just certified votes; hence, Jill Stein's bid for a recount looks highly unlikely. Certification goes as follows: ** Due to Google Censoring Alternative News sources, you will have to click through to the article as they've put up a fake warning about the Truth Division website in an effort to stop people from going to other sources other than mainstream media which isn't reporting this information on orders from Clinton's people.
2,279,543 Donald J. Trump, Republican
2,268,839 Hillary Clinton, Democratic
172,136 Gary Johnson, Libertarian
51,463 Jill Stein, Green
Regarding Pennsylvania, Stein and Clinton will have to go before a judge and present ironclad proof there was voter fraud in the state before any recount is granted. However, given the fact that Stein's donations for the recount are coming from Clinton directly has been outed earlier today.
The hiccup came when the same amount was being deposited on the hour every hour, but also didn't allow for deviation in people usage which goes down between 3am-6am EST (when most people sleep on both coasts.)
The graph was compiled by the BBC/HNN News Organization. The orange line in center that's flat is the donations coming into Jill Stein's account.
UPDATE: The Recount is now being called a false flag to try to marginalize Trump's win and discredit his election like they did with George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004. This we've seen before. Keep your heads together and carry on!
Things are getting very interesting, folks. Keep your eyes and ears peeled. We're in for a fun two months!

A Highly Respected Medical Journal Just Declared 'The War On Drugs' An Epic Failure
“The war on drugs has failed,” the editors of the peer-reviewed British Medical Journal declared this week, arguing that doctors should lead the global effort to reform drug policy.
Fiona Godlee, the journal’s editor-in-chief, and Richard Hurley, its features and debates editor, penned an analysis citing academic and scientific reports to argue global policies on drug use — including the United Nations’ — have fallen drastically short.
Godlee and Hurley note the annual cost of prohibition, which entails criminalizing “producers, traffickers, dealers, and users,”totals at least $100 billion annually.
“But the effectiveness of prohibition laws, colloquially known as the ‘war on drugs,’ must be judged on outcomes,” they write. “And too often the war on drugs plays out as a war on the millions of people who use drugs, and disproportionately on people who are poor or from ethnic minorities and on women.”
The authors cite a variety of reasons why the global war on drugs has been a failure.

Are You Scared?
By Thornton Crowe and Unknown Meme Writer
While I don't know who created the original meme, it is worth a good review as it contains a truthful yet succinct analysis of why half of the country is going postal over Trump's victory on November 8th. I have added to this meme to fill out some of the missed particulars but it's all within the same general idea. It's a sad truth we must embrace because if we don't, we will continue to repeat this history until we either end America or smarten up!
If you voted for Hillary, you are scared because for the last five months (I'd say last 30 years) you have been a victim of the biggest propaganda scheme in US History.
Mainstream Media has spent nearly $10 Billion creating a safe space, pro-Hillary echo-chamber on Television, Facebook, Twitter and in liberal newspapers across America.
They rigged polls with massive oversampling, completely censored trending news articles and pro-Trump #Hashtags from social media.
They paid thousands to post pro-Hillary comments and pretend to be 'normal voters.'
They blatantly and calculated one-sided every source of news you trusted and relied on to be 'informed citizens and voters.'
So when Trump won, you were completely blindsided with absolutely no clue about how much support he had because the media portrayed him as being evil, racist, sexist, a sexual predator, Hitler, Satan and every other nihilistic meme they could throw at him.
They even went so far to tell you that he only had a 1% chance of winning...and that was validated by known conservative political pundits and anchors like Bill Kristol, Charles Krauthammer, Karl Rove, Dana Perino, Ben Shapiro, Megyn Kelly, Shepard Smith, George Will and a huge bank of writers at the National Review.
You are scared for the same reason that Trump won... because the Media lied to YOU!
Does this explain the hysteria? How say you?

Students Fake Trump’s Assassination And It’s OK. Try This On Obama And It’s RACIST
I don’t agree with the reprimanding because we fought so hard for free speech, so I can’t knock them on what they did because it makes me a hypocrite of free speech. The CAN say whatever they want and if I don’t agree with it, then that’s my problem. We do not have to agree with everything that everyone says.
However, the students were promoting violence and the assassination of a real person, a President elect, so that might warrant some sort of domestic violence or conspiracy charges (doubtful), yet should not be permitted in a high school setting. At the very least, a slap on the wrist at school is in order.

Is it Time to Go Back to 1787?
With all the hyperbole this last week from truculent Mayors and Governors, telling the Trump Administration they will continue to harbor illegal aliens, perhaps it's time for us to revisit the fiscal policies of our framers.
The fact is this, our founding fathers never saw the federal government as a cash cow for states. States were always meant to be self-supporting with their own exports to the union and beyond as well as taxation from its citizens in order to fix their own infrastructures, fund their education systems and oversee their communities' indigent population. Federal level's fiscal mission was to support the military and protect Americans from enemies foreign and domestic. (Illegal Aliens by the framers' definitions fit into the enemies category as it is defined as a crime to enter the US illegally or overstay VISAs - like every other country on the planet.)
During the New Deal era, states became dependent on federal subsidiaries which allowed for their over-spending without consequence. A huge negative towards Franklin D. Roosevelt's feel-good attempt to quash the Great Depression - it actually prolonged it by a decade in the opinion of many historians. FDR began the state dependency which has continued to this day. Hence, why so many state agencies rely so heavily on federal grants that they should already have money to complete. Yet, even with this subsidiary cash flow, many state and local initiatives never get accomplished or take forever to complete - i.e. the continual construction on Route 13 near Salisbury University.
Contrary to their misinformed beliefs, the feds are not required to give them financial assistance - and quite frankly, assisting these large crime enclaves is very expensive. Should they cut their access to the coffers, it would allow more federal money to restore our military which is their responsibility in the first place. By cutting off these wayward money wasting states, the federal government would be in a much better financial position to defeat terrorism.
Immigration laws are on all levels of government; however, as any history scholar and Constitution attorney will tell you, federal law always usurps state and local law. By denying to uphold federal immigration laws, these mayors (and governors) are "aiding and abetting" known criminals because all illegal aliens are committing a crime. There is no such thing as a law abiding illegal alien. It's impossible. Therefore, Chicago, New York and Los Angeles are not engaged in some David and Goliath battle of moral statements but one of a person standing on the third rail with a freight train speeding right at them. No matter how much they put their hands up to stop, it will keep on coming until impact is achieved.
Maybe it's time for states to do what everyone expects from the citizenry: learn to live within their monetary means. There is absolutely no reason for Trump's Administration to put a Trillion Smackaroos into infrastructure when states were constitutionally responsible for their own roads, bridges and other infrastructural assets. The only exception to this would be federal oversight and repair of the interstate system, but only because of it's promotion and aids in commerce; however, that should be it!
Don't you think it's time for states to belly up to the bar and have some skin in the game rather than engage in a losing game of chicken with our Constitution?
