Trump: Brutal Honesty About May’s Betrayal 

of BREXIT & Britain

If UK Prime Minister May’s plan goes through, it will not only kill trade with the US & Britain, it will also leave Britain in a far worse position with the EU — EU regulation of trade without representation in Brussels.

Trump Exposes Brexit Betrayal by Globalists

President Donald Trump blasted the so-called “soft” Brexit deal negotiated by British Prime Minister Theresa May that will keep the United Kingdom under the boot of the European Union, with the U.S. leader saying that was not what the British people voted for in the historic 2016 referendum. Trump also warned that the agreement, which critics say is not an actual British exit from the EU, will likely kill a proposed lucrative trade deal with the United States offered by his administration. But all hope is not lost. In response to the betrayal of the people by May, multiple senior U.K. officials including Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson resigned. And in public comments, Trump said Johnson, a leading voice for a real Brexit, would make a “great prime minister.” Globalists were outraged.
Trump gave the exclusive interview to The Sun, a British publication owned by News Corporation boss Rupert Murdoch, shortly before leaving on a trip to Europe. It was published on July 13, as Trump was arriving in the United Kingdom to meet with Prime Minister May, Queen Elizabeth II, and others, after a trip to a NATO summit. Throughout his European tour, the president has been brutally honest. Among other comments that caused shockwaves among euro-globalists and the establishment, Trump blasted German authorities for sending billions of dollars to Putin's government and becoming dependent on Russian oil while expecting U.S. taxpayers and troops to protect Germany from the Kremlin. The president also slammed the mass immigration that he said was undermining Europeans' cultures, identities, and societies.
His comments attacking May's “soft” Brexit were the equivalent of dropping a bomb into British politics. As The New American has been warning practically since the vote to secede from the EU superstate, globalists have done everything possible to sabotage the British people's historic effort to reclaim their right to self-government. Even though more people voted for Brexit than have ever voted for anything in British history, globalists at all levels of society — government, Big Business, bureaucracy, Parliament, media, shadowy organizations such as the Royal Institute of International Affairs, and more — have worked to derail it in every way. And until Trump exposed the fraud, with May's pseudo-Brexit deal with the EU, globalists thought they had succeeded. Basically, May's plan would keep Britain in the EU in all but name.
But Trump refused to stay quiet about the betrayal. In the interview with The Sun, the president said that the proposed deal was “very unfortunate” and that May had done the “opposite” of what he had recommended in talks with her. By extending an offer to secure a favorable bilateral trade deal, the Trump administration had already destroyed the EU's most important leverage over the British people. As Eurocrats sought to extort tens of billions of pounds from U.K. taxpayers while keeping them under EU “laws” created by unelected bureaucrats, the superstate's primary threat was that they would block free British access to European markets. But by securing a deal with America, and being allowed to trade with Europe on the same terms as anyone else, Britain could have flourished like never before.
Now, that may all go down the tubes thanks to May's “soft” Brexit scheming. “If they do a deal like that, we would be dealing with the European Union instead of dealing with the UK, so it will probably kill the deal,” Trump explained. “If they do that, then their trade deal with the US will probably not be made.” In fact, it may be even worse than just killing a potential trade deal with Washington. According to Trump, May's plan “will definitely affect trade with the United States, unfortunately in a negative way.” Trump warned that the U.S. government is already having “enough difficulty” with the EU, and that his administration intends to stop it. “We are cracking down right now on the European Union because they have not treated the United States fairly on trading,” he said, adding that May's proposed deal would “probably end a major trade relationship with the United States.”
Trump also implied that May and her globalist allies were betraying their people by subverting their vote to secede. “The deal she is striking is a much different deal than the one the people voted on,” Trump explained, pointing to the 800-pound gorilla in the room that globalists were hoping nobody would notice. “It was not the deal that was in the referendum. I have just been hearing this over the last three days. I know they have had a lot of resignations. So a lot of people don’t like it.” He also said that the deal would “absolutely” cause him to walk away from the negotiating table. “I think what is going on is very unfortunate,” Trump added. At a press conference in Brussels, Trump echoed his concerns. “I don’t know if that’s what they voted for,” he said about the fake Brexit deal pushed by May,
The Sun said Trump's attacks on the phony Brexit deal would “pour nitroglycerine on the already raging Tory Brexiteer revolt against the PM.” The “Tory Brexiteer revolt” refers to the growing uprising among pro-Brexit Conservative Party lawmakers and officials who refuse to participate in the fraud May and her globalist allies are trying to perpetrate against the British people. The prime minister, though, who was publicly opposed to Brexit before the vote, falsely claimed that the deal was in fact a legitimate Brexit. “We have come to an agreement at the proposal we’re putting to the European Union which absolutely delivers on the Brexit people voted for,” she claimed in a statement after Trump's comments were published. “They voted for us to take back control of our money, our law and our borders and that’s exactly what we will do.”
However, few believe that, and May's government is teetering on the edge of collapse after the stunning betrayal. And there are growing rumblings among lawmakers and the people that she should resign in disgrace. One widely touted potential replacement would be Boris Johnson, the former foreign secretary who resigned in disgust rather than participate in May's fraud on the British people. Trump described Johnson as a “a very talented guy” and said “I like him a lot.” “I have a lot of respect for Boris. He obviously likes me, and says very good things about me,” Trump added. “I was very saddened to see he was leaving government and I hope he goes back in at some point. I think he is a great representative for your country.” While careful to say he was not trying to pit May and Johnson against each other, Trump said he thought Johnson “would be a great prime minister.” “I think he’s got what it takes,” the president added.  
British critics were outraged about Trump's comments. Labour Party boss Jeremy Corbin, a radical leftist who reportedly collaborated with mass-murdering communist regimes during the Cold War, slammed Trump and questioned whether his mother had taught him manners. London's controversial Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan, who has presided over surging crime rates, ripped Trump as well, expressing outrage after Trump said the mayor had done a “very bad job on terrorism.” Other political figures on the far left went ballistic, spewing false accusations against Trump and claiming that a “racist” should not be allowed to meet the British queen. But Trump took it all in stride, and reiterated that The Sun had omitted many of the positive things he said about May and the United Kingdom.  
But Trump's comments represent a total shift from the rhetoric of globalist former President Barack Hussein Obama, who warned Brits before Brexit that they should stay in the EU or face serious consequences. The ex-president also threatened ahead of the vote that if they declared independence from Brussels, the Brits would be “at the back of the queue” in negotiating any trade deals with America. Ironically, though, polling suggested that Obama's half-baked interference in the historic U.K. vote only strengthened the pro-secession movement. By contrast, Trump, who was then a candidate for president, predicted that Brexit would succeed and encouraged the British people to reclaim their nation from globalists in Brussels. Of course, he was proven correct.    
After the interview appeared online, Trump said in a press conference that The Sun had omitted many of his comments praising Prime Minister May. “I didn’t criticize the prime minister,” Trump explained. “I have a lot of respect for the prime minister and unfortunately there was a story that was done which was generally fine but it didn’t put in what I said about the prime minister and I said tremendous things. Fortunately we tend to record stories now so we have it for your enjoyment if you'd like it. We report when we deal with reporters. It is called fake news.” During the interview with The Sun, Trump also ridiculed the “fake news” purveyors at the Washington Post, dismissing the increasingly shrill anti-Trump hysteria factory as a “lobbyist for Amazon.” Establishment bigwig Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, bought the Post and accelerated its transformation into a transparent propaganda megaphone for globalism and dishonest anti-Trump extremism.  
Unfortunately, the British people have been betrayed by globalists yet again. But fortunately, the story does not have to end here. And with President Trump on their side, the people of Britain can reclaim their sovereignty, boost their prosperity, restore self-government, and ignore the increasingly deranged threats from a totalitarian EU that refuses to accept the will of the people. Just Trump's public comments exposing the fraud may well crush the plans of globalist insiders to keep the British people under Brussels' boot. But the Brits and the American people must continue to educate themselves and organize if they hope to preserve and protect their liberties. Globalists have already shown that they will use deception and immorality to advance their agenda. But patriots and liberty-minded people everywhere can defeat them using the truth.

At one point Gowdy tells Strzok he “doesn’t give a damn” how the agent feels about how he worded a question. Here’s a transcript of the tense exchange:
GOWDY: Your testimony is Bob Mueller did not kick you off because of the content of your text, he kicked you off because of some appearance that he was worried about?
STRZOK: My testimony — what you asked, and what I responded to – was that he kicked me off because of my bias. I’m stating to you, it is not my understanding that he kicked me off because of any bias. That it was done based an appearance. If you want to represent what you said accurately, I’m happy to answer that question, but I don’t appreciate what was originally said being changed.
GOWDY: I don’t give a damn what you appreciate, Agent Strzok. I don’t appreciate having FBI agent unprecedented level of animus working on two major investigations during 2016.
Several text messages from Strzok to his mistress Lisa Page showed the FBI agent, who led the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s illegal use of a private email server, held an anti-Trump bias during the election, saying at one time, “there’s no way he gets elected – but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk.”

LIBERAL NY GOVERNOR CUOMO BLASTS "EXTREME CONSERVATIVE" POLITICIANS FOR IMPOSING "THEIR VIEW OF WHAT GOD SAYS SHOULD BE DONE"

LIBERAL NY GOVERNOR CUOMO BLASTS "EXTREME CONSERVATIVE" POLITICIANS FOR IMPOSING "THEIR VIEW OF WHAT GOD SAYS SHOULD BE DONE"
BY HEATHER CLARK
NEW YORK — Fearing potential ramifications of the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy, liberal New York governor Andrew Cuomo signed an executive order on Monday ensuring that contraceptives are free under all insurance plans in the state. He also decried in speeches what he called “extreme conservative” politicians, describing them as those who “have their views about what religion is right and wrong, what lifestyle is right and wrong, what sexuality is right and wrong,” and impose on the people by law “their view of what God says should be done.”
“Whereas, with the retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy from the United States Supreme Court and the growth of attacks by the federal government on access to comprehensive reproductive health, it is more critical than ever to protect access to reproductive rights,” the order reads.
It suggests that the State will defy any federal acts it opposes surrounding the issue, and will codify provisions within its own laws.
“New York is committed to not only protecting, but expanding full, affordable, and timely access to contraceptives, including emergency contraceptives, regardless of federal actions,” the order outlines.
According to a press release from Cuomo’s office, the executive order will ensure that there are no co-pays for contraceptive drugs and devices, and that one year’s worth of contraceptives are dispensed at a time.
“In the face of this federal assault, New York is going to protect itself because this state has always been the progressive capital of the nation,” Cuomo remarked in a statement. “This is the time where every New Yorker has to say, you’re not taking women’s … reproductive rights away. We’re going to protect ourselves because this is the state that has always stood up for what’s right.”
The governor signed the order after delivering a speech at the Manny Cantor Center, in which he lamented that overturning Roe v. Wade is on the conservative agenda. He spoke to crowds both Monday and Tuesday, decrying what he called “extreme conservatives” in the government.
“This is their view of the world. This is their view of religion. This is their view of what God says should be done. And their view of what God says should be done is the view they’re going to impose on you by law,” he stated prior to signing the order.
“What a great act of hypocrisy … Conservatives always argued limited government; states’ rights. Pull pack the federal government …. until they took control of the federal government,” Cuomo asserted. “Then, the federal government is omniscient and omnipresent, (and) the federal government should dictate the law of the land to everyone. Not in New York state.”
“They have their views and they’re going to impose their views on you,” he similarly said on Tuesday. “They have their views about what religion is right and wrong, what lifestyle is right and wrong, what sexuality is right and wrong, who should be an immigrant and who’s right and who’s wrong. They have their views, and in a great act of hypocrisy, they are going to use the federal government to impose those views on you.”
He told those gathered that elections matter, as they affect the “fundamental values of who we are and what we believe and how we live.” Cuomo also remarked that the actions of those in power are a “daily shock to our system … because it is totally repugnant to everything we are and what we believe,” and called upon those gathered to push back and rebel.
“New York has to pass a law that codifies Roe v. Wade before they overrule it,” Cuomo stated, opining that the world has become a “crazier place” in that it is now possible that the 1973 ruling could be overturned.
He called upon Republicans in the New York legislature to join Democrats in passing the Reproductive Health Act, which would codify Roe into state law.
“Come back and pass Roe v. Wade for New York. There are no excuses,” Cuomo stated. “And if you do not come back and vote, that is your answer. You are telling the women and men of this state you are anti-choice. … No one gets a pass. There is no amnesty. You are either with us, or you’re against us. And in the words of President Trump, if you are against a woman’s right to choose, ‘you’re fired!'”

As previously reported, while many argue that abortion is the right of a mother to do what she wants with “her body”—or the child in her womb—Scripture teaches that men and women are to glorify God with their bodies, and no longer live in autonomy unto themselves, but to give their all to Him.
2 Corinthians 5:15 reads, “He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto Him which died for them and rose again.”
1 Corinthians 6:20 also states, “For ye are bought with a price: therefore, glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
Romans 6:13 and 19 instruct, “Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. … [F]or as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity, even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.”
1 Thessalonians 4 3:-8 likewise teaches, “For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication—that every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor, not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God. … For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us His Holy Spirit.”

TRUMP RELEASES CORDIAL LETTER FROM KIM JONG UN OF NORTH KOREA

Trump Releases Letter from Kim Jong Un
TRUMP RELEASES CORDIAL LETTER FROM KIM JONG UN OF NORTH KOREA

North Korean leader calls summit the ‘start of a meaningful journey’

BY MIKAEL THALEN
SEE: https://www.infowars.com/trump-releases-letter-from-kim-jong-un/republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
U.S. President Donald Trump released on Twitter Thursday a letter from North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
“A very nice note from Chairman Kim of North Korea,” Trump said. “Great progress being made!”
In the letter, dated July 6, Kim thanks Trump for attempting to improve relations between Washington and Pyongyang.
“The significant first meeting with Your Excellency and the join statement that we signed together in Singapore 24 days ago was indeed the start of a meaningful journey,” the letter begins. “I deeply appreciate the energetic and extraordinary efforts made by Your Excellency Mr. President for the improvement of relations between the two countries and the faithful implementation of the joint statement.”
Kim also discusses the potential for future trust building as the two countries attempt to work towards the goals outlined at the summit in Singapore last month.
“I firmly believe that the strong will, sincere efforts and unique approach of myself and Your Excellency Mr. President aimed at opening up a new future between the DPRK and the U.S. will surely come to fruition,” Kim said. “Wishing that the invariable trust and confidence in Your Excellency Mr. President will be further strengthened in the future process of taking practical actions, I extend my conviction that the epochal progress in promoting the DPRK-U.S. relations will bring our next meeting forward.”
Trump’s release of the letter comes as the future between the U.S. and North Korea still remains uncertain.
Just this week the Trump administration asked the United Nations to reprimand China and Russia for allegedly defying sanctions by selling oil products to North Korea.
North Korea also accused the U.S. of “extremely troubling” behavior earlier this month after a U.S. delegation led by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo allegedly pushed for unilateral denuclearization during two days of talks in Pyongyang. Pompeo was also kept from meeting with Kim during the talks.
South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency also reported Thursday that North Korean officials failed to show up to a planned meeting with U.S. officials at the DMZ to discuss returning the remains of deceased U.S. soldiers from the Korean War.
While the Trump administration has pushed for North Korea to denuclearize up front, the Kim regime has been adamant in carrying out a phased process in which both sides make concessions.
And although Kim voluntarily ceased nuclear weapons testing and long-range missile launches, after declaring both no longer necessary, North Korea still remains unbound in terms of weapons production.
Commercial satellite imagery captured before and after the Singapore summit shows North Korea has continued to expand both the Yongbyon Nuclear Research Facility and a key missile production site.
U.S. intelligence assessments also claim Pyongyang is still buildingsupport equipment and launchers for ballistic missiles while nuclear weapons fuel production remains ongoing at multiple secret sites.
Trump remains optimistic that the summit will produce a lasting and peaceful outcome on the Korean Peninsula.
The president stated on Twitter last week that he has “confidence that Kim Jong Un will honor the contract we signed…”

THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH'S ROYALLY ANTI ISRAEL GENERAL CONVENTION

THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH'S ROYALLY 
ANTI ISRAEL GENERAL CONVENTION 
BY PROPHECY NEWS WATCH
SEE: http://the-trumpet-online.com/episcopal-churchs-royally-anti-israel-general-convention/republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
The Episcopal Church under Presiding Bishop Michael Curry is in the midst of hosting a royally anti-Israel 79th General Convention in Austin, Texas.
 Centered on the theme from Bishop Curry’s royal wedding sermon on the #WayOfLove, the General Convention attendees are educating themselves on Israel using resources from a predominately anti-Israel perspective. They are also voting on over a dozen resolutions with language targeting Israel and using an expedited process to do so.
 Apparently, for the royal wedding bishop and the Episcopal Church, “love is the way” until it comes to loving Israel, the Jewish state.
 The Episcopal News Service (ENS) described the shift occurring in the Episcopal Church in their June 5, 2018 article titled, “General Convention to Consider New Approach to Israel-Palestine Issues Promoting Open Debate.” ENS’ David Paulsen reported that Presiding Bishop Michael Curry and House of Deputies President Rev. Gay Clark Jennings had formed an “Israel and Palestine Working Group” and accepted three of the group’s recommendations.
 The first recommendation encouraged “all members of the House of Bishops and House of Deputies … to review a resource list assembled by the working group.” Despite an official “diverse opinions and narratives” disclaimer, this list of resources provided a predominately anti-Israel perspective.
 While the resource list did include a few pro-Israel resources, including AIPAC and the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations, the majority of resources listed — especially those first in the list — are well-known as adamantly anti-Israel.
 These included Friends of Sabeel North America, Kairos Palestine, Mitri Raheb, Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Center, and the Telos Group. Notably, the BDS (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions) movement, Breaking the Silence, B’Tselem, If Not Now, J Street, and Jewish Voice for Peace were also listed resources.
The second recommendation made Israeli-Palestinian issues a “special order of business,” to “allow hearings and discussions to take place early in [the] General Convention and ensure debate isn’t sidelined by procedural barriers.” The final recommendation designated the House of Deputies as the first legislative body to take “initial action for each resolution pertaining to Israel and Palestine [sic].”
 Bishop Curry praised the “Israel and Palestine Working Group” by stating: “I am so grateful to the task force for their work. Their work will make it possible for the convention to have a thoughtful, prayerful discussion and consideration of the humanitarian concerns in Israel Palestine [sic]. In so doing may we pray and work for the peace of Jerusalem.”
 Using peacemaking talk while targeting Israel is nothing new for Bishop Curry. After all, in 2016 he attended a conference officially titled “Pursuing Peace and Strengthening Presence: The Atlanta Summit of Churches in the USA and the Holy Land,” which was co-hosted by the Palestinian Authority and former President Jimmy Carter. On behalf of the Episcopal Church, Curry signed the anti-Israel blueprint known as the Atlanta Summit document.
 Point-by-point, Bishop Curry is now leading the Episcopal Church in their implementation of the Atlanta Summit document’s agenda, which includes anti-Israel church resolutions and support for BDS. Friday’s joint hearing on the proposed anti-Israel resolutions demonstrated the depth of anti-Israel sentiment present at the General Convention.
 Speaking at the hearing, Katy Dickinson, a church deputy from California, described the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a family fight with “two sides.” The Episcopal News Service (ENS) quoted her: “‘It’s mostly Israel’s problem,’ she said, but Hamas also is firing missiles and needs to be part of the solution.”
 Tarek Abuata also spoke at the hearing. Having previously worked for the Palestinian Authority’s Negotiations Support Unit, he is currently the executive director of Friends of Sabeel North America (FOSNA), an organization well-known for its anti-Israel animus.
 With typical FOSNA rhetoric, Abuata responded to Dickinson’s description of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as simply a family fight: “It is not a fight. It is not a family fight when my father has been abusing my mother and raping her for 70 years.”
 David Paulsen of ENS reported that those testifying about “15 total resolutions on issues related to Middle East peace … spoke of Palestinians’ homes being bulldozed, of Palestinian children being ripped from their families and jailed, of the ‘racist extremism’ that had turned Palestinians into second-class citizens in their own homeland.
 Their testimony described the Palestinian territories, particularly Gaza, as a ‘nightmare,’ ‘concentration camp,’ ‘prison camp’; and the equivalent of the Jim Crow era of segregation in the United States or the former system of apartheid in South Africa.”
 ENS also reported, “Several pro-Palestinian organizations mobilized individual representatives and groups of people to testify, helping to tilt the balance of views in favor of approving resolutions calling for a tougher stance against Israel and greater promotion of peace. A small but forceful minority spoke in defense of Israel or to assert that this decades-old conflict defies easy assignment of blame.”
 While Bishop Curry has cited “Jesus of Nazareth who said blessed are the peacemakers,” he has led the Episcopal Church to streamline the process for passing resolutions that are anything but peaceful.
 Given Bishop Curry’s support for a statement that provided cover for Hamas and another that sought to implement a Palestinian Authority strategic agenda, the Episcopal Church he leads seems on track to pass resolutions that will do nothing to advance genuine peace in the Middle East or significantly improve the lives of Israelis and Palestinians.
 These controversial resolutions under consideration instead threaten to fracture and further divide the Episcopal Church — alienating those genuinely seeking peace in the Middle East and the Way of Love.

Publisher’s comments: Please note the following scriptures that tell of a time when Israel will be totally surrounded by her enemies and they will descend on her to destroy her.
 Zec 12:1-4  The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
2  Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3  And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4  In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
“Please note in v- 3 that it says, “though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”  It doesn’t say that all the people will, but “though”, like, “if” they are. Then God will destroy those nations. But according to Mt 25:31-46 there will be a judgment of nations when the Lord Jesus returns to set up His Kingdom.  There will be Goat nations and Sheep nations.  The sheep nations will be those who give Israel refuge and comfort during the tribulation period.  Those nations will be permitted to go into the Kingdom (1,000 year reign of Christ).  Unless America refuses to follow wicked religious leaders like these Episcopalians and others in the main line denominations that are taking the same position along with the Democrats, the U.S. will be numbered with the goat nations.  Thank God for Pres. Trump and the Republicans who are standing with Israel at this time with the encouragement of most of the Evangelical and fundamentalist preachers.  The only hope for America is to continue to stand by Israel.  Gen.12:3.)”
