Studio Cancels (for now) Release Of Elite Liberals Hunting Trump Supporters Movie

Following massive backlash after a number of shooting events, Universal Pictures canceled the release of its movie, The Hunt. The plot involves elite liberals sport-hunting “deplorables” that are modeled on Trump supporters. A critic from OANN noted, “The people who want you to give up the right to bear arms are the same people making movies about killing Trump supporters for sport.” Universal’s decision followed President Trump’s tweets accusing Hollywood of trying to inflame the public into violence and then blaming others. -GEG

As we noted yesterday, it took several weekends of mass shootings for Universal Pictures to yank ads for (but not postpone, or cancel) an R-rated ‘murder-porn’ movie in which elite liberals hunt Trump supporters for sport. 

“Did anyone see what our ratf*****-in-chief just did?” asks one character early in the screenplay for The Hunt – set to open Sept. 27. 

“At least The Hunt’s coming up. Nothing better than going out to the Manor and slaughtering a dozen deplorables,” is the reply. 

But, after furious backlash in the last few days, that has changed as The Hill reports that Universal Pictures says it is canceling the release of “The Hunt” following intense criticism on both sides of the aisle about the upcoming film.

“While Universal Pictures had already paused the marketing campaign for ‘The Hunt,’ after thoughtful consideration, the studio has decided to cancel our plans to release the film,” a Universal Pictures spokesperson told The Hill in a statement.

“We stand by our filmmakers and will continue to distribute films in partnership with bold and visionary creators, like those associated with this satirical social thriller, but we understand that now is not the right time to release this film.”

This decision followed President Trump’s outburst against “racist” Hollywood on Friday, blaming popular culture for pushing “dangerous” movies.

The movie coming out is made in order… to inflame and cause chaos. They create their own violence, and then try to blame others,” Trump tweeted Friday.

“They are the true Racists, and are very bad for our Country!”

72 Democrat and Republican Congressmen Party in Israel on All-Expense Trip Paid by Israeli Lobbying Organization, AIPAC

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is a pro-Israel lobby that seeks to influence US elected officials. AIPAC hosted 41 Democrats, led by Steny Hoyer, and 31 Republicans, led by Kevin McCarthy, at the King David Hotel. McCarthy received almost unanimously negative comments when he tweeted, “Just arrived in Israel with dozens of other members of Congress—Republican and Democrat. We are here to show unity in our support for Israel and her people.” The gist of the angry Tweets was that the politicians should have stayed home and shown their unity and support for America, instead. -GEG

A total of 41 Republicans and 31 Democrats are in Israel on overlapping party tours to get a firsthand view of the complex security challenges Israel faces and to express their unconditional, bipartisan support for the Jewish state.

The delegations are touring Israel’s borders and gaining insight into Israeli advances in areas of defense, agriculture, water desalination and conservation, and commercial technology. In addition, the groups met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Blue and White Party leader Benny Gantz, and Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas.

“This is the largest delegation that has ever visited Israel,” said House Majority Leader Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), who led the Democratic delegation at a joint press conference of the two delegations on Sunday at Jerusalem’s King David Hotel. “We have 32 freshman members in our delegation of the 41. For many of them, it is their first visit to Israel,” said Hoyer.

House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said that the U.S. relationship with Israel represents “an unwavering and undeniable bond, and the most important relationship we have in the Middle East. I want to emphasize that this is more than 15 percent of the entire U.S. House of Representatives with you right now.”

China Accuses US of Inciting Protests in Hong Kong and Doxxes a US State Department Official

Chinese officials accused Julie Eadeh, of the US Consulate General in Hong Kong, of collaborating with pro-independence activists in Hong Kong who were protesting against mainland China. China’s state media accused her of being a subversion expert and a covert CIA agent who was sowing dissent and creating unrest. The Chinese government then leaked the American diplomat’s private information, pictures, and even names of her children. -GEG

update: The US State Department has released a statement in response to Chinese officials and state media accusing a US diplomatic official based in Hong Kong of interfering in Chinese affairs. State media widely reported on a viral photo showing US foreign service agent Julie Eadeh – identified as the political unit chief of the US Consulate General – meeting with leading anti-Beijing activists at a Hong Kong hotel on Tuesday amid continuing unrest in the semi-autonomous city. 

A State Department spokesperson on Thursday afternoon issued a statement calling China a thuggish regime” for releasing details on the US diplomat stationed in Hong Kong.

“I don’t think that leaking an American diplomat’s private information, pictures, names of their children, I don’t think that is a formal protest, that is what a thuggish regime would do,” spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus told a news briefing. “That is not how a responsible nation would behave.”

Multiple Chinese state media reporters previously referred to Eadeh as a “subversion expert” who is in contact with Hong Kong protest organizers in order to fuel chaos and unrest in the city. 

China earlier in the day summoned US consulate officials over the matter, demanding answers.

After a viral photo surfaced this week revealing continuing contact between well-known Hong Kong pro-independence protest leaders and a US diplomatic officer, China has summoned US consulate officials stationed in the cityBloomberg reports.

According to a statement from Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong, Chinese officials asked the Americans to clarify media reports that a US diplomat had contacted the local protest leaders. Bloomberg reports the clear firm message sent that “China firmly opposes any contacts with them and urges U.S. to stop sending wrong signals to violent law breakers in Hong Kong.”

As well organized anti-Beijing protests have raged and continued to escalate this summer over the deeply controversial extradition bill, Beijing authorities have repeatedly blamed a US “hidden hand” for fueling the crisis. 

Pro-Beijing publications reported that protest leaders and key organizers Joshua Wong and Nathan Law had met with American consular official Julie Eadeh in the late afternoon on Tuesday at the JW Marriott Hotel in the Admiralty area of Hong Kong.

US Treasury Official at the Center of US Sanctions and Policies Against Iran May Be an Israeli Citizen

Sigal Mandelkeris, an Israeli-born US Treasury official, is reported to be in control of the current economic sanctions meant to bring about Iran’s demise. The Treasury has refused to divulge whether Mandelker is still an Israeli citizen, which suggests that she is. Otherwise, a simple no would suffice. Israel considers Iran to be her primary enemy, so an Israeli citizen in such a position opens the possibility that US policy may be motivated by loyalty to Israel, not to the US. -GEG

At the Center of U.S. Iran policies is an Israel-born Treasury official named Sigal Mandelker. The Atlantic writes that her ‘hand is on the lever’ of crippling economic sanctions meant to force Iran’s ‘capitulation or demise’… meanwhile the Treasury Department refuses to divulge whether Mandelker is still an Israeli citizen… (Iran has long been in Israeli crosshairs)

By Alison Weir

According to a just published report in the Atlantic and a previous article by a former CIA officer, an Israeli-born individual is at the center of U.S. policies targeting Iran.

The Atlantic reports that financial sanctions are the “key tool” the United States has been using against Iran during  “the past three presidential administrations.” And Treasury official Sigal Mandelker” is the one with her hand on the lever.”

According to the article, “Because Trump is anxious to avoid war with Iran but also eager to push the Iranians, she is one of the most powerful officials designing the strategy Trump’s administration hopes will force Iranian capitulation—or, failing that, perhaps even the government’s collapse.”

Mandelker has been working on governmental policies since 2006 – the year in which U.S. officials “focused on finding ways to cut off Iran from the global financial system.”

According to Mandelker’s Treasury Department bio, from 2006-2009, Mandelker served as Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice. Prior to that, she was Counselor to the Secretary of Homeland Security, “where she advised the Secretary and worked extensively on intelligence, national security, counterterrorism, and border security matters.”

In 2017 Mandelker was named Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence. As we will see, this office was created at the behest of Israel partisans. It provides a powerful position from which to direct policies.

In this position she is in charge of “developing and implementing U.S. government strategies to combat terrorist [sic] financing and money laundering… She oversees the operation and coordinates actions of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (OIA), and the Office of Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes (TFFC).”

In the years just before her 2017 Under Secretary appointment, Mandelker was a partner at Proskauer Rose LLP, a powerful, politically connected international law firm with ties to Israel. The pro-Israel website Algemeiner,* reports: “Historically, Proskauer Rose was known as a ‘Jewish’ law firm.”  Partner Joseph M. Proskauer was “a Democratic Party stalwart, friend of politicians, state judge, civic and philanthropic personality, and major fund raiser for the state of Israel.”

Born in Israel

It appears that Mandelker is or was an Israeli citizen who was born in Israel. While this is periodically referred to in Israeli and Jewish media, the Treasury Department has refused to answer whether Mandelker is still an Israeli citizen, despite numerous email and phone inquiries requesting this information about a high U.S. official.

The information is particularly relevant since U.S. attacks on Israel’s neighbors are often pushed by Israel partisans concerned with maintaining Israeli hegemony in the region.

Dual citizenship became permissible in the U.S. in 1967 under a decision by the Abe Fortas Supreme Court in a case on behalf of Israel that broke a 200 year American tradition. Today, many Americans feel that such a potential conflict of interest by governmental officials should, at minimum, be divulged to the U.S. public, and perhaps disallowed.

Israel has long targeted Iran for attack

From Israel’s earliest days, Ben Gurion wrote about the need to neutralize Israeli neighbors who might potentially support Palestinian rights. This strategy has also been enunciated in various strategy documents, including the Yinon Oded Plan and A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm (the realm was Israel).

Israel and pro-Israel groups in the U.S. have frequently promoted anti-Iran policies, despite the fact that U.S. intelligence agencies have found that Iran is not developing nuclear weapons and that accusations claiming this have proven unfounded. (Israel has in the range of 100-300 nuclear weapons and has refused to sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty, the only Middle East state that has not signed the NPT.)

Mexican Drug Cartel Shoots at US Border Patrol Marine Unit in Rio Grande


Mexican cartels fired at the US border patrol marine unit policing the Rio Grande River. Agents saw four subjects with automatic weapons on the Mexican riverbank who shot over 50 rounds at them. The boat was hit, but no one on board was injured. Last April, a group of armed Mexican soldiers disarmed and detained two US soldiers on the US side of the border near Clint, Texas. -GEG

 

A US border patrol marine unit on Friday morning was fired upon by Mexican cartels from the Mexican riverbank.

“Early this morning, agents assigned to the Rio Grande City Station Marine Unit patrolling near Fronton, Texas, reported they were fired upon from the Mexican riverbank. Agents saw four subjects with automatic weapons who shot over 50 rounds at them. The boat was hit several times but no one on board was injured,” Border Patrol announced on Friday.

 

This incident is currently under investigation.

Tensions between the US and Mexico have been escalating as President Trump fights to stop the invasion of illegal aliens.

Last month Border Patrol council Brandon Judd appeared on Fox Business to discuss the crisis at the border and Trump’s new asylum law aimed at stopping the flow of Central American migrants.

Judd revealed that Mexican soldiers crossed into the US through the Rio Grande river and got into a scuffle with US border patrol agents.

 

“We just had another ‘Mexican military incursion’ into the United States,” Judd said. “We had several military personnel from Mexico cross the Rio Grande river and come up to our fence, which is about 200 yards north into the United States — they were looking around and when an agent responded, the vast majority of them went back.”

FBI Document Claims Conspiracy-Theory ‘Extremists’ Are a Terror Threat


Yahoo News reported that the FBI intelligence bulletin from the bureau’s Phoenix field office, dated May 30, 2019, describes “conspiracy theory-driven domestic extremists,” as a growing threat. A number of arrests were listed, including some that haven’t been publicized, related to violent incidents motivated by so-called fringe beliefs. It cited QAnon, a murky network that believes in Pizzagate and a deep-state conspiracy against President Trump. The FBI admitted that a factor driving the mounting threat is “the uncovering of real conspiracies or cover-ups involving illegal, harmful, or unconstitutional activities by government officials or leading political figures.” -GEG

The FBI has for the first time identified “conspiracy theory-driven domestic extremists” as a terror threat — including the believers in the shadowy QAnon network, according to a report.

An FBI bulletin dated May 30, 2019, from the bureau’s Phoenix field office and obtained by Yahoo News describes the growing threat and lists multiple arrests tied to violent incidents sparked by fringe beliefs.

“The FBI assesses these conspiracy theories very likely will emerge, spread, and evolve in the modern information marketplace, occasionally driving both groups and individual extremists to carry out criminal or violent acts,” the document states.

The feds believe the conspiracy theory extremists will likely increase their activities during the 2020 presidential election cycle, according to the document cited by Yahoo.

The bureau said another factor driving the mounting threat is “the uncovering of real conspiracies or cover-ups involving illegal, harmful, or unconstitutional activities by government officials or leading political figures.”

The FBI does not specify which people or cover-ups it was referring to.

Jeffrey Epstein Reported to Have Died 24 Hours After 2,000 Pages of Court Documents Were Unsealed that Implicated Prominent Men

Jeffrey Epstein is reported to have committed suicide over the weekend by hanging himself. There is extensive evidence that he sexually abused underage girls and used them to blackmail prominent political figures. He had ties to the Israeli Mossad and, as part of his 2008 ‘sweetheart’ plea deal, became an FBI informant. On July 6th, the night that he was arrested, the FBI raided his New York home and seized hundreds of photos of nude females, some of whom appeared underage. There are several ongoing investigations into this matter, but Epstein’s death has removed the primary witness in all of them. -GEG

Summary by JW WIlliams

New York: Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was discovered dead in his jail cell. Officials reported he committed suicide by hanging. He was placed on suicide watch several weeks ago following an incident that left him with an injury to his neck. It is unknown if he had been attacked or tried to commit suicide. Epstein recently was released from suicide watch, and the guards, who were supposed to check on prisoners every 30 minutes, failed to do so. Supposedly, there is no video of his ‘suicide.’
.
Jeffrey Epstein was accused of blackmailing important men, stealing securities, and running ponzi schemes to support his opulent lifestyle. There is evidence that both Epstein and his alleged madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, were assets of the Israeli Mossad. Epstein was also an informant for the FBI as part of his plea deal in 2008, and former prosecutor Alex Acosta says he was told to back off the case because Epstein “belonged to intelligence.”
.
Epstein’s helicopter was owned by the US State Department and contracted to the private military contractor, Dyncorp International. This enabled the helicopter to bypass border checkpoints and elude law enforcement, leading to the speculation that Epstein’s underage sex ring was knowingly supported by rogue elements within the government. DynCorp is run by Steve Feinberg, who is the head of President Trump’s intelligence advisory board.
.
Epstein was found dead the day after court documents were unsealed that implicated the former Governor of New Mexico Bill Richardson, Prince Andrew, financier Glenn Dubin, former senator George Mitchell, now-deceased MIT scientist Marvin Minsky, attorney Alan Dershowitz, and modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel in the sex scandal.
.
The court documents came from a 2015 defamation lawsuit brought by alleged Epstein victim, Virginia Roberts Giuffre, against Ghislaine Maxwell. Maxwell settled with Guiffre out of court in 2017. While officials are reportedly investigating potential accomplices, Ghislaine Maxwell has yet to be charged with any crimes. The Manhattan US Attorney said that the investigation into Epstein will continue despite Epstein’s death.
.
On July 6th, the night Epstein was arrested on sex-trafficking charges, the FBI raided his home and said it seized hundreds of photos of nude females, some of whom appeared underage, and that these were evidence of pedophilia. Critics believe that the photos were most likely kept for blackmail purposes.
