 1…………> A Warm, Barbed Wire Welcome: US/Mexico Border

.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said it would close lanes at the San Ysidro and Otay Mesa crossings from Tijuana into California to allow the Department of Defence to install barbed wire and position barricades and fencing at the country’s southern border, as hundreds of Central American migrants planning to seek asylum in the country reached one of Mexico’s northern-most cities.

About 400 migrants reach the border city of Tijuana, but thousands more are expected, as transgender asylum seeker says she would instead be detained in the US than sent home

Human rights organizations said larger groups were scheduled to arrive in the coming days, as DOD Jim Mattis said he would inspect the area, which would be his first visit since the military announced that over 7,000 US troops would go to the city as the caravan of mostly Hondurans made its way through Mexico.

 4…………> On Mission To Kill Cops: Canadian IS

.

.Amor M. Ftouhi, 51, of Quebec, Canada, was found guilty of three crimes, including an act of terrorism transcending national boundaries, in conjunction with an attack on a Bishop Airport officer in Flint, Michigan on June 21, 2017. “Ftouhi conducted research in Canada and entered our country with a plan to obtain a weapon and kill American police officers. With today’s guilty verdict, he will be held accountable for his brutal knife attack on an airport police officer in Flint,” said Assistant Attorney General Demers. “I want to thank the prosecutors and law enforcement partners who made this result possible. The National Security Division remains committed to holding accountable all who seek to carry out terrorist attacks on our soil and target our men and women in uniform.” According to evidence presented at trial, Ftouhi entered the United States from Canada on a “mission” to kill American police officers in the United States. Before entering the United States on June 16, 2017, while in Canada, Ftouhi conducted online research of American gun laws and for gun shows in Michigan. Ftouhi subsequently traveled to Michigan where he was unsuccessful in repeated attempts to purchase a gun and purchased a knife instead. On June 20, 2017, Ftouhi walked up to the victim, who is a lieutenant with the Flint Bishop Airport police and was in full uniform, and stabbed the police officer in the neck twice with a knife. Ftouhi referenced killings in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and yelled “Allahu Akbar.” After his arrest, Ftouhi told law enforcement that he was a “soldier of Allah,” subscribed to the ideology of Al Qaeda and Usama bin Laden and that he had planned to kill the victim, steal his gun, and kill other police officers in the airport.

1…………> Islamic State: Dormant Cancer(Video)

Despite current “politically correct” headlines about the “complete destruction” of the “Islamic State of Levant” in Syria and Iraq, the jihadist group has found roots in Africa, Philippines and Asia, still presenting a real and imminent danger to the civilized world.

2…………> 2,232 Pages of Madness: Trump’s Budget

 

With champagne bottles popping, smiles all around and the sweet scent of freshly printed dollar bills about to flood the pockets of defense contractors who will be paid to build two “Gerald Ford” like carriers in a single year, instead of one, Congressional leaders led by Paul “Romney Jr.” Ryan, Mitch “Harry’s Twin” McConnell and Charles “I cried tears for the Muslims” Schumer, are finalizing a sweeping, monstrous $1.3 trillion budget bill that substantially boosts military and domestic spending but deprives President Donald Trump some of his border wall money and takes only incremental steps to address gun violence.

Talks continued into Wednesday evening before the 2,232-page text was finally released.

“No bill of this size is perfect,” Ryan said. “But this legislation addresses important priorities and makes us stronger at home and abroad.”

Really Paul? The deficits are about to top Obama’s 1 trillion for the next three years, the Chinese are switching oil futures to yuan backed SDR instead of US dollar, and the National debt is already 21 trillion dollars.

That “financial outrage” has drawn opposition from some fiscal conservatives and could make passage a potentially tricky process.

“It’s a good thing we have Republican control of Congress or the Democrats might bust the budget caps, fund planned parenthood, and Obamacare, and sneak gun control without due process into an Omni … wait, what?” Sen Rand Paul tweeted.

3…………> Mans’s Inspiration: IS

Erick Jamal Hendricks, 37, of Charlotte, North Carolina, was convicted today by a jury in Akron, Ohio, of attempting and conspiring to provide material support to the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), a designated foreign terrorist organization.

“Erick Jamal Hendricks represents the significant online ISIS threat that we face daily – a US citizen that becomes radicalized online and attempts to recruit and train individuals to commit jihad, all while on American soil,” said Special Agent in Charge Anthony. “The FBI urges the public to report information regarding individuals pledging their allegiance to ISIS or other identified terrorist groups. The FBI is pleased that Hendricks was stopped before he was successful and now will spend a significant amount of time behind bars.”

According to court documents and trial testimony, Hendricks tried to recruit people to train together and conduct terrorist attacks in the United States on behalf of ISIS, including Amir Al-Ghazi who was arrested after attempting to purchase an AK-47 assault rifle and ammunition, and “brothers” Elton Simpson and Nadir Hamid Soofi who became part of an organized terrorist attack.

4…………> Fentanyl Bust: Ohio

Two men and a woman from Texas are in custody Wednesday after authorities seized a package of fentanyl destined for Ohio.

“Fentanyl is a dangerous synthetic opioid with deadly consequences for users and those in law enforcement,” said HSI Detroit Special Agent in Charge Steve Francis. “This significant seizure clearly demonstrates HSI’s resolve to combatting the ongoing epidemic affecting Ohio, which we redoubled last week by pledging increased resources in the state.”

The seizure comes days after ICE and Ohio officials announced that HSI special agents had trained more than 300 law enforcement personnel in the state on “Darknet” and virtual currency, which is increasingly how synthetic opioids are purchased.

“The fentanyl seized last night is enough to kill everyone in Toledo several times over,” said U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio Justin Herdman. “This is a great example of law enforcement working together to make our community safer.”
