Port of Hate

Last June, CNN’s Jim Acosta got into a heated discussion with White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller over Trump’s support of an immigration policy which rewarded those who spoke English. Acosta remarked:

“It sounds like you’re trying to engineer the racial and ethnic flow of people into this country.”

Although the White House denied it at the time, Acosta nailed it.

Fear, Inc.

On Saturday, London became the latest city to face another terror attack. A white van drove down the London Bridge around 10 p.m. GMT, hitting several pedestrians. Three men armed with knives exited the van, attacking civilians in the Borough Market area. Police quickly responded, killing the suspects within ten minutes of the men leaving the vehicle. As of this writing, 7 people are dead and 48 are wounded.

It was a horrific event which President Trump would exploit to spread fear, push his Muslim ban, and attack the mayor of London.

End of Days

Donald Trump’s first seven days in office began by delivering on the worst of his campaign promises, and eventually, on human nature.

The week would end with the White House intentionally removing any mention of the Jews from its Holocaust Remembrance Day statement. On the same day, President Trump signed an executive order which delivered on the campaign promise of a Muslim ban.
