The U.S. pulled out of a global pact on migration and refugees Saturday, informing the United Nations that it will make decisions independently about who is allowed to come to the U.S.

The U.S. will no longer participate in the Global Compact on Migration, a result of the New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants, which was unanimously adopted last year as a non-binding agreement to protect the rights of refugees, help them resettle, and facilitate access to education and employment, according to Voice of America.

President Donald Trump’s administration has expressed concerns, suggesting that the accord poses a threat to U.S. national security. “Our decisions on immigration policies must always be made by Americans and Americans alone,” U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley said Saturday. “We will decide how best to control our borders and who will be allowed to enter our country.”

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson asserted Sunday that the original agreement was based on a declaration that “contains a number of policy goals that are inconsistent with U.S. law and policy,” adding, “We simply cannot in good faith support a process that could undermine the sovereign right of the United States to enforce our immigration laws and secure our borders.”

“The United States supports international cooperation on migration issues, but it is the primary responsibility of sovereign states to help ensure that migration is safe, orderly, and legal,” he further explained.

U.N. General Assembly president Miroslav Lajčák expressed regret, arguing that the U.S., as home to largest number of migrants, has the experience and expertise to lead on these issues.

The withdrawal comes just days before the start of a global conference on migration in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Trump has reportedly decided to boycott the talks, according to Foreign Policy.

The Trump administration has emphasized the importance of sovereignty, national security, and immigration control from the beginning, downplaying the role of large international agreements and institutions.

Well, this is interesting and looks like Sessions has been busy.

To date 4,289 sealed indictments in all 94 Federal Districts. Source: pacer.gov, and this does not include the thousands of unsealed indictments

"From October 30 through November 22, 2017, there are 4,289 sealed indictments filed in past 3 weeks in all 94 Federal District Court Districts in the United States. This is utterly unprecedented in US history.

The "normal" is 1000 in 12 months."

The Senate better start filling those judicial vacancies.

Dayum! That’s 22.1 sealed indictments per Democrat Congressman! No telling how many counts!

Diane Feinstein talks about where the DEMs and Muellar are going to go w the "Russia" investigation

http://www.breitbart.com/video...obstruction-justice/

Feinstein:

"I see it most important in what happened with the firing of Director Comey, and it is my belief that that is directly because he did not agree to lift the cloud of the Russia investigation. That’s obstruction of justice.”

So Hillary Clinton funded Christopher Steele to put together a phony "dossier" w info straight from the Kremlin. Steele immediately takes what he gets to the FBI.

Comey and Strzok go all out and start tapping conversations of Trump campaign personnel.

Comey testifies that there is absolutely no truth to Donald Trump's statement that his lines were tapped. (except it was true from dozens or hundreds of FISA warrants against the Trump campaign)

Comey gets fired because he was a lousy FBI Director, he lied, and he used the fabricated dossier paid for by Clinton to unleash a major investigation into Trump campaign collusion w the Russians. (whatever that means)

Maybe Comey just got mixed up, because it was Clinton who through her agents colluded with the Kremlin to influence the election.

Going to be a political firestorm like we have never seen if they try to push impeachment because of obstruction of justice.

That will go nowhere. There is ample proof Comey was in dereliction of duty. And as such it was completely acceptable for him to be fired. Just bring out some quotes from the democrats deriding the job Comey was doing. Diane is reaching because she knows there was no collusion. Obstruction? Let's take a look at Hillary Clinton....

How do we get everybody's cards on the table, face up?

As it is, the essential “who did what to whom” is available only from leaks, either because it is “national security” or “making the facts public would impair the investigation.”

Probability looking at other connected individuals and don't want to tip them off that they are hot on their trail. Big Grin

And don't forget the MS-13 that have been arrested:

Crackdown on MS-13 gang nets more than 200 arrests

"We will not rest until every member, associate and leader of MS-13 has been held accountable for their crimes," said Thomas Horman, director of ICE.

More than 1,200 gang members have been convicted so far this year, and about 4,000 have been arrested and charged, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a statement.

Sessions promised an all-out assault on the violent gang last month, designating it a "priority" for the Department of Justice's Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force.

“They leave misery, devastation and death in their wake. They threaten entire governments. They must be and will be stopped," the attorney general said in Philadelphia last month.

In the most recent roundup, charges included murder, aggravated robbery, racketeering, narcotics trafficking, firearms offenses and assault, with roughly 60 arrests being illegal border crossings by unaccompanied children, officials said.

good article by Andrew McCarthy

http://www.nationalreview.com/...-leading-impeachment

For all practical purposes, the collusion probe is over. While the “counterintelligence” cover will continue to be exploited so that no jurisdictional limits are placed on Special Counsel Robert Mueller, this is now an obstruction investigation.

That means it is, as it has always been, an impeachment investigation.

worth a read

Feinstein just said that a case is building for impeachment not on the grounds of "collusion," but for obstruction of justice. They are flailing around, for sure. But I think they have no idea what would happen if these fools actually impeached President Trump.

Lucky for them they got nothin'.

Jeff Sessions’ ambitious Justice Department

By Alfred S. Regnery - - Thursday, November 30, 2017

In February, 2016, a full nine months before the presidential election and days before Super Tuesday, Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions endorsed Donald Trump, the first sitting senator to do so. I recall being in a meeting of several other Washington conservatives with Mr. Sessions shortly after his endorsement. Mr. Trump, said Mr. Sessions “is the candidate who is the best advocate for our ideas. If he wins, he has the best chance of putting the country back onto the conservative mold left by Ronald Reagan.”

The endorsement was nothing if not a blow to a couple of Mr. Sessions’ colleagues who were also in the race, and who Mr. Sessions knew much better than he knew Mr. Trump, most notably Ted Cruz. Recognizing that his political career was probably over if Mr. Trump lost, Mr. Sessions closed by saying “I hope I’m right.”

Mr. Sessions has encountered some rough sledding in his first 10 months as attorney general, including being on the brink of being told “you’re fired.” The Washington press corps, the entire liberal establishment, and the Democratic congressional caucus practically get hives every time they hear his name, as was so evident in hours-long hearings recently before both the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, where Mr. Sessions was raked over the coals, largely for his perceived involvement in the so-called Russian connection.

But despite a dearth of confirmed assistant attorneys general and other aides, Mr. Sessions has largely succeeded in shutting down much of the Obama-era leftism that was so alive in the Justice Department when he got there and setting it on a Reagan-like path. In a front-page story just last week, a Washington Post headline announced that “While eyes are on Russia, Sessions dramatically reshapes the Justice Department,” going on to say that “the attorney general has been among the most effective of the Cabinet secretaries — implementing Trump’s conservative policy agenda even as the president publicly and privately toys with firing him over his decision to recuse himself from the Russia case.”

His supporters, according to The Post, “say Sessions has restored a by-the-book interpretation of federal law and taken an aggressive stance toward enforcing it.” One of those supporters is Ronald Reagan’s Attorney General Ed Meese. I asked Mr. Meese about what he thought of Mr. Sessions’ tenure to Justice so far. “During his relatively short time in office,” Mr. Meese told me, “Jeff Sessions has already achieved a remarkable list of accomplishments. He has restored integrity to the Office of Attorney General and reasserted fidelity to the Constitution.

“Under his leadership,” Mr. Meese continued, “the Department of Justice again supports effective law enforcement and is working closely with state and local public safety agencies.” Mr. Sessions, said the former attorney general, “has adopted or changed numerous policies and practices of the Department, based on sound principles, common sense, fairness, and the attainment of a just result in investigations and litigation.” Not bad praise, from one who should know.

Mr. Obama and Eric Holder, his first attorney general, whose leftist views were largely identical to Mr. Obama’s, knew that Justice could be used to transform America better than about any other part of the government. Accordingly, policies on civil rights, crime, immigration, environmental enforcement and many of the left’s favorite causes were implemented by liberal hard-line assistants and deputies. So when Mr. Sessions arrived at Justice in February of this year, he had a veritable plethora of opportunity to return the department to the rule of law.
Regarding criminal justice, Mr. Sessions has returned the department to actually prosecuting and locking up criminal offenders — based on the notion — outlandish to the left — that effective policing and incarceration are key to reducing crime and protecting the public rather than the Obama campaign of reducing the prison population as much as possible.

Mr. Sessions has directed prosecutors to seek the harshest penalties for major drug offenders, reversing another Obama directive; he has reversed earlier policies on the legitimate use of asset forfeiture to squeeze major drug rings; he has vastly improved relationships with and support for local law enforcement. Most importantly, he has set the tone, across the country, that the federal government is serious about controlling crime and protecting law-abiding citizens from criminal activity — a much-needed reform that will, over the coming years, have a major impact on reducing crime.

Needless to say, the left is apoplectic about what is happening to the Justice. In a recent editorial on the NBC News site, liberal commentator James Braxton Peterson laments that Mr. Sessions cares little about Black Lives Matter and police brutality, but instead actually believes that “strong policing and incarceration are key to maintaining law and civil order” — which, the author contends, are just another way for the racist Trump administration to lock up more minorities, noting that “the consequences of aggressive policing have serious negative outcomes in poor communities of color.”

Justice, like most of the other Cabinet departments, remains short-handed in terms of confirmed assistant attorneys general, although there is a long line waiting for the Senate to act. Once they are all in place, conservatives can rest assured that they will have no better friend in the Trump administration than Jeff Sessions. Even without those assistants, in fact, they already do.

It has been an impeachment investigation from the very beginning. The democrats ordered Mueller to find anything on Trump, and being the scumbag he is he is dutifully following his marching orders.

What about an obstruction case for Hillary? She destroyed evidence when she deleted her emails. Comey? He torpedoed the Clinton investigation based on politics.

When does justice start coming for people who actually deserve it?
