Donald Trump Green Lights White Supremacist Terror Attacks on Americans

In April 1995, white Christianist extremist Timothy McVeigh left a bomb outside the Alfred P. Murrah building that would level a federal building in Oklahoma City, causing 168 deaths, including that of 19 small children in the building's daycare center.

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, who tracks extremist domestic terror groups, that triggered a new error of emboldened action in White Supremacist groups across the United States.   In the following 20 years, they have sought ever more prominent targets and a higher body count than McVeigh.   It is only the attention of the federal government in squashing these terrorist cells that have prevent another such attack.

So why, exactly, has Donald Trump and his adminstration signaled the end of their attempt to squash out the Christofascist aspect of rightwing America, by removing white supremacists from the list of individuals targeted by federal agencies responsible for preventing domestic terrorism?

Is it the incorrect belief that white supremacists are not responsible for a majority of terrorist attacks in the United States?  Per New America, a Washington research institute, white supremacists have killed TWICE as many Americans as radicalized Muslims since the attacks of 9/11.

Or is it a far more unsettling implication?  Is this a tacit nod of approval to the extreme right that made up his voting base, the KKK, the American Nazi Party?  Is it a way of saying that those who commit Christofascist terrorism on US soil do not have to fear prosecution by the federal government?

Regardless of motivation, the results will be the same; without the attention of the federal government, white supremacists, whether they be organized members of the American Nazi Party or the KKK, or so called 'lone wolf' christofascists, are in a new era of unscrutinized criminal activities, and have essentially been invited by the Trump Administration to attack American citizens unchecked.

Donald Trump Lies about White Nationalist Terrorist, Implies he is Muslim

Sunday, January 29th, White Nationalist Alexandre Bissonette walked into the Quebec Islamic Cultural Center and opened fire, in a terrorist attack that left 6 Muslim men dead and 5 others wounded.  

On Monday, January 30th, White House Press Secretary, the man who lied about the size of the crowd at Trump's inauguration, twice posted his own twitter password, and recently shared an Onion article mocking him on Twitter, apparently not understanding that the Onion is satire, or that the article was mocking him, took to camera to state that the attacks supported Trump's 'policies' to prevent terror.  While he did not state exactly which policy, it was strongly implied that the attacker was a Muslim (he was not) and the policy was the Muslim Ban (which has been stayed by numerous federal court Judges.)

The loose and free approach the White House and its representatives take to information should be disconcerting to even the most ardent Republican.   To discredit reality is to create your own history book.     And it is with this tapestry of lies, artfully woven together, Trump and Co are able to create justification for the most bizarre and unconstitutional of behavior. 

Investigation is Demanded into White House and Border Agents Defiance of Federal Court Order

The senators of Illinois, Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin, are requesting an investigation in the unprecedented refusal of the White House and their agents in the Custom & Border Protection to comply with multiple federal court orders to stand down from their illegal "Muslim ban".

Multiple people, legal residents of the US, still remain illegally detained without access to counsel or due process, in international airports.    Thousands more are now stranded internationally,  unable to return home to lives, schools, jobs, spouses, and children.

It appears that the White House, which issued a statement defying the federal order, has no intention of complying with constitutional checks and balances that protect our democratic republic.

This should terrify everyone, from Republicans to Democrats.

Victoria, Tx ~ Shortly after President Trump signed his sweeping executive order, illegally denying legal residents of the USA reentry into the country, a Texas mosque burned to the ground in the early morning hours of Saturday January 27th.  




Just a week previously, the mosque was burgled, and in 2013 was vandalized.     While the fire inspector would not speculate on the cause,  he has called in state investigators to assist in determining it. The Trump Effect will continue to monitor as additional reports become available.
