George Sorbane Quotes:

1. “So Alex was counting the days until he would step on the holy soil of Boston, ready to breathe the cold Atlantic air and sense the spirits of those remarkable people about whom he had read so much with nearly religious admiration, walk the streets in their footsteps, and pray in the churches where they had found peace and solace in times of fateful junction.”― “The Endless Beginning

2…………> “Yalla” Driver Licenses: Sweden

 

The Transport Administration of the Islamic Sheikdom of Sweden launched an information campaign in Arabic called “Yalla Driver’s License” using the Arabic expression Yalla, led by a star blogger Mahmoud Bitar with over 1.5 million followers on social media and Tahani Abood, a program host at Alkompis which is largest news channel for Arabic speakers, about the process of getting a driver’s license in Sweden,featuring an Muslim immigrant couple complaining about the weather in the Scandinavian country and using a derogatory racial epithet for “Swedes”.

In 2018, Arabic was estimated to have surpassed Finnish as Sweden’s second-largest native language, as speakers of Arabic swelled into the Scandinavian country amid the European migrant crisis.

 While some praised Tahanny and Mahmoud for their performance and hailed the Transport Agency’s accommodating approach, others slammed the very idea of running the entire film in Arabic

“In Sweden, Arabic is now the largest language after Swedish and at the Swedish Transport Administration about 20 percent of all knowledge tests are written in Arabic. We want to change this by reaching out to the target group about what is required to be a safe driver”, Kristina Hagberg of the Swedish Transport Administration said.

3…………> Lower Court Anti-Trump Injunctions A Threat To US: AG Barr

 

Thank you.  I’m honored to address the American Law Institute this evening.  Among this distinguished company, it is not possible to acknowledge all who merit it.  However, I would like to mention a couple of my dinner companions.  I want to thank David Levi, the President of ALI, for inviting me.

David and I were colleagues 30 years ago at the Department of Justice and have remained friends.  When I was recently confirmed again as Attorney General I was delighted to hear that David’s son, Will, had joined the AG’s staff.  The apple does not fall far from the tree.  I am delighted Will agreed to stay on with me, and he is doing an outstanding job.

I also want to salute a man who I believe is a great American jurist, but also, in my opinion, one of the greatest AG’s to ever hold the office – Mike Mukasey.  I have placed his official portrait in my office to remind me of his example.

We are also joined by many prominent judges, practitioners, and law professors.  Thank you for being here and for supporting the thoughtful study and administration of law.

In this town, there’s a tendency to focus on the news of the day, as the past few weeks have reminded me.  But the role of groups like ALI is to remind us of the bigger picture.  So tonight, I want to take several steps back—to our Nation’s Founding.

The central genius of the American Constitution lies in its use of structure to protect individual liberty.  It does not rely solely, or even primarily, on grants of substantive rights.  As Justice Scalia colorfully quipped, “Every banana republic has a bill of rights.”  His point—and mine—is that the bulwark against tyranny in America has always been our structure of government, most notably the Separation of Powers.

These days, clashes between Congress and the Executive steal the headlines.  I know that all too well.  But clashes between the Judiciary and the Political Branches are just as weighty.

While the Framers had concerns about an unelected Judiciary encroaching on the prerogatives of the Political Branches, Hamilton promised in Federalist 78 that the least democratic branch would also be the “least dangerous” branch because courts have “no influence over either the sword or the purse … neither force nor will, but merely judgment.”  Today, that assurance does not instill much confidence.  We have seen over time an expansion of judicial willingness to review executive action.  Then, combine that with the strategies of sophisticated public-interest lawyers and the aggressive practices of some courts, such as the novel and growing use of nationwide injunctions.  The legal community and the broader public should be more concerned, particularly about this trend of nationwide injunctions.

Tonight, I wish to discuss some of the reasons why.  Let me start with perhaps the most remarkable example:  the ongoing litigation over the DACA (or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) program.

You all know the basic backstory.  It starts with the DREAM Act, which would provide legal status to certain aliens who came to the United States as minors.  Congress has never passed it.  But in 2012, the Obama Administration announced the DACA program, under which DHS assumed a non-enforcement posture and extended work authorization to those covered by the proposed DREAM Act.  That policy was controversial.  It used prosecutorial discretion to implement an unenacted statute, and many argued that it exceeded Executive authority.  Several States, led by Texas, obtained a nationwide injunction against extended versions of the policy—which an equally divided Supreme Court affirmed—and they threatened to challenge DACA itself.

But in 2017, the Trump Administration announced that it would wind down DACA.  That decision was also controversial, though no one seriously contends that DACA is required by law.  Two district judges in California and New York have nevertheless issued nationwide injunctions against the rescission—that is, effectively requiring the government to reinstate DACA notwithstanding the President’s contrary exercise of discretion.  Appeals have been ongoing for nearly a year-and-a-half, but the injunctions remain in place.

This saga highlights a number of troubling consequences of the rise of nationwide injunctions:

First, these nationwide injunctions have frustrated presidential policy for most of the President’s term with no clear end in sight.  We are more than halfway through the President’s term, and the Administration has not been able to rescind the signature immigration initiative of the last Administration, even though it rests entirely on executive discretion.  The Justice Department has tried for more than a year to get the Supreme Court to review the lower-court decisions ordering us to keep DACA in place.  But the Court has not granted any of those requests, and they languish on its Conference docket.  Unless the Court acts quickly and decisively, we are unlikely to see a decision before mid-2020 at the earliest­—that is, right before the next presidential election.  It is hard to imagine a clearer example of the stakes of nationwide injunctions.

A 23-year-old woman from Glasgow named Mikala Monsoon was shocked to discover her photos were on the MegapNZ site, the file sharing site Megaupload founded by Internet mogul Kim Dotcom, who now faces extradition to the US to face multiple copyright infringement charges.

It turned out a link by an old school friend alerted her that someone uploaded intimate photos of her when she was 17 and they have resurfaced online over the last six years.

5…………> A Low IQ Idiot: Comrade Un To Sleepy Joe Biden

 

The most cherished person of the new, ultra left Democratic party, the man that could  destroy President Trump’s dream of a yet another term in office, and bring the dreams of the liberal snowflakes for a world of one nation, no currency, no borders, no religions, and no guns, “curious fingers” Joe Biden that is, has found himself bombarded on two fronts, according to the sweet details below:

North Korean state media did not miss the opportunity to slam the Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden for criticizing leader Kim Jong-un, calling him “bereft of elementary quality as a human being“, after he referred to Comrade Un as a dictator and tyrant during a campaign rally, and added to the fire lit by President Trump, saying Biden has a “low IQ“, labeling him as an “imbecile“.

2…………> China Shells A Threat: A Counter Attack Coming?

 

President Trump’s latest tariff hike on Chinese goods took effect on Friday and Beijing said it would retaliate, escalating a battle over China’s technology ambitions and other trade strains, after American and Chinese negotiators began more talks in Washington aimed at ending a dispute that has disrupted billions of dollars in trade and shaken global financial markets, with US officials accusing Beijing of backtracking on commitments made in earlier rounds of negotiations.

After President Trump increased tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese goods, China said it will retaliate without giving details while the two countries are holding last-ditch trade talks in Washington, after the administration raised duties on $200 billion of Chinese imports from 10 per cent to 25 per cent.

3…………> Big Pharma Conspiracy & Money vs US States: A Massive Lawsuit

 

More than 40 US states have filed a lawsuit accusing pharmaceutical firms of conspiring to artificially inflate the cost of common medicinal drugs, alleging that as many as 20 companies have been involved in fixing prices for over 100 drugs, including treatments for diabetes and cancer, with Teva Pharmaceuticals, the world’s largest producer of generic medicine, on the top of the defenders list.

The legal action, which follows a five-year investigation, accuses drugs companies of involvement in a scheme to boost prices – in some cases by more than 1,000% – and was filed on Friday by Connecticut Attorney General William Tong.

“We have hard evidence that shows the generic drug industry perpetrated a multi-billion dollar fraud on the American people,” Mr Tong said.

“We have emails, text messages, telephone records and former company insiders that we believe will prove a multi-year conspiracy to fix prices and divide market share for huge numbers of generic drugs.”

4…………> Border Wall Will Be Build: US DOD Chief

 

“We’re not going to leave until the border is secure,” said acting DOD Secretary Mr.Patrick Shanahan.

“This isn’t about identifying a problem. It’s about fixing a problem more quickly,” as the Pentagon transferred $1.5 billion from other programs including an Afghanistan-program to fund the construction of a US-Mexico border wall, in a bid to stop the deluge of migrants arriving at the US border that President Trump has called a crisis and declared a national emergency over.

Secretary Shanahan told Congress that as for now there are 4,364 US service members at the border, including both active-duty and National Guard troops, according to The Hill report, with 1,167 service members performing the primary role of monitoring and detection, a broader set of missions ranging from logistical support to aviation support and food service.

2…………> A Sinaloa Cartel Goon Busted: Narco Trade

 

A Culiacan, Mexico man, identified as Gibran Rodriguez-Mejia, 31, pleaded guilty to international money laundering in connection with his operation of a currency exchange house that received the proceeds of multi-kilogram quantities of cocaine, methamphetamine and heroin smuggled into the United States by the Sinaloa Cartel.

  Those cases have involved individuals based in the United States or individuals who have frequently crossed into the United States and served as money couriers, drug couriers and drug stash-house operators and who were part of, or related to, the same money laundering and drug trafficking organization.

  Rodriguez-Mejia also admitted that he arranged for currency to be smuggled to an exchange house in Tijuana, Mexico owned and operated by co-defendant Cesar Hernandez-Martinez, who pleaded guilty on April 4, 2019 and will be sentenced on July 8, 2019.

  After the money was converted to Mexican pesos, Rodriguez-Mejia provided financial accounts in Mexico into which the money was deposited for the benefit of the Mexican-based cartel drug traffickers.

3…………> India Call Center Scan: US Victims

 

A massive India-based telephone impersonation fraud and money laundering conspiracy defrauded thousands of U.S. residents out of hundreds of millions of dollars, leading to the extradition of an Indian national tothe United States from Singapore to face charges related to his role as an operator of a call center network that targeted U.S victims.  

Hitesh Madhubhai Patel, 42, of Ahmedabad, India, arrived in the United States and is scheduled to be arraigned today before a U.S. magistrate judge in federal court in Houston, Texas.  The indictment, which was unsealed in October 2016, charged Patel and 60 other individuals and entities with general conspiracy, wire fraud conspiracy and money laundering conspiracy.  The case is assigned to the Honorable David Hittner of the Southern District of Texas.

Hitesh Patel operated a call center that allegedly preyed upon vulnerable U.S. citizens as part of a massive fraud scheme,” said Assistant Attorney General Benczkowski.  “This extradition once again demonstrates the Department’s unwavering commitment to disrupt and dismantle the India-based call center scam industry and to work with our foreign partners to hold accountable those who perpetrate schemes that defraud our citizens.  I especially would like to thank our Singaporean colleagues for their excellent cooperation with this extradition and their commitment to combatting transnational organized crime.”

4…………> Canadian Terrorist Life Long Vacation: US Prison

 

Amor M. Ftouhi, 51, of Quebec, Canada, was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Matthew F. Leitman to life in prison for committing an act of terrorism transcending national boundaries and two other offenses in conjunction with his attack on a Bishop Airport police officer on June 21, 2017.

Ftouhi came to the United States to kill American police officers, and then brutally attacked an airport police officer in Flint,” said Assistant Attorney General Demers. 

“The National Security Division is committed to doing all that it can to protect our women and men in uniform from terrorist violence on our soil, and this sentence is a gratifying reflection of the seriousness of the defendant’s conduct.  I want to thank the prosecutors and law enforcement partners who made this result possible.”

“The evidence at trial demonstrated that Ftouhi had a ‘mission’ to kill as many American law enforcement as possible in an act of violent jihad,” stated U.S. Attorney Schneider.

5…………> Nadler, Waters, AOC & Co: Subpoena For Trump’s Scalp

 

House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerrold Nadler issued a subpoena to the Justice Department to hand over the full Russia report, saying he cannot accept the redacted version that “leaves most of Congress in the dark”, after his most cherished dream, the Mueller Report, came crashing expectations for a quick impeachment of a democratically elected president, simply stating that there was no collision, or other criminal activity.

The subpoena gives the US Attorney-General a deadline of May 1 to provide the full report, as the “angry” Democrats want to see all of the evidence that was redacted in the report, as they are looking for dirt against Mr.Trump.
