“MY FAITH WON’T ALLOW IT”: JUDGE HOLDS IMPRISONED PASTOR IN CONTEMPT DURING INTERNATIONAL KIDNAPPING TRIAL

BUFFALO, N.Y. — A federal judge held a Mennonite minister in contempt of court on Thursday after refusing to testify for reasons of “faith and conscience” at the trial of a Virginia man who is being accused of aiding an ex-lesbian turned professing Christian who fled the country with her daughter in 2009 to escape a court order.
Kenneth Miller, who is currently serving a 27-month sentence in a federal prison in Vermont for likewise helping Lisa Miller—no relation—flee to Nicaragua, is now potentially facing new charges and a longer prison sentence for declining to testify against others.
Miller had been escorted into the courtroom by federal marshals after being ordered to testify in the trial of Philip Zodhiates, who is charged with international parental kidnapping and conspiracy for allegedly driving Lisa Miller and her then seven-year-old child from Virginia to New York.
Kenneth Miller’s attorney, Herbert Greenman of Buffalo, had advised the court in advance that the pastor was going to decline to testify, citing the Fifth Amendment. The jury was consequently recessed until the court discovered whether or not Miller would comply.
U.S. Assistant Attorney Paul Van De Graaf of Burlington, Vermont informed Miller that he had been granted immunity in speaking—that his testimony would not be held against him.
“You no longer have a Fifth Amendment right not to answer,” advised Senior U.S. District Judge Richard Arcara, who then asked Van De Graaf to read aloud the immunity order.
Moment later, Van De Graaf proceeded with the questioning as Miller was placed on the stand.
“In September 2009, where did you live?” he asked.
“On the advice of my attorney, I decline to answer the question,” Miller replied humbly, choking up as he sought to respect the court but chose to stand by his convictions.
Van De Graaf repeated the question.
“For reasons of faith and conscience, I am not answering,” Miller again replied.
Arcara warned Miller that if he did not answer the questions he would be held in contempt of court, which could escalate to criminal contempt of court. Miller understood.

Arcara asked Van De Graaf to ask Miller additional questions, giving him further opportunity to comply. He remarked that there was “no lawful basis” for Miller to decline as Arcara had granted him immunity for testifying.
“Have you met Lisa Miller?” Van De Graaf asked.
Miller again responded that he could not answer for “reasons of faith and conscience.”
“Did you call Timothy Miller?” Van De Graaf questioned.
As Miller stood firm and again declined to answer, Arcara held Miller in contempt of court under 18 U.S. Code 6002. His supporters remained standing until he was escorted out the courtroom. Van De Graaf smirked.
Miller, who has been serving his sentence in Vermont, is now being held in a Buffalo prison for the duration of the trial in the unlikely event that he changes his mind.
Others prior to Miller agreed to testify before the court on Thursday, including Tara Devine, an attorney who had been appointed before Lisa Miller’s departure to oversee the child’s custody in the case, and Annie Joyner, a telephone company employee who discussed Zodhiates’ phone records.
William Sidebottom, who handled direct marketing for the religious liberties organization Liberty Counsel, was also questioned about an email he received from Zodhiates, asking, “Is there no legal recourse now for Lisa Miller?” Zodhiates had advised that he wanted to communicate with her.
A woman from Oregon by the name of Jessica, who worked with Timothy Miller in Nicaragua, told the court that someone had used her email account to send communication without her knowledge and permission, and that she had met Lisa Miller and her daughter, known to her as Sarah and Lydia.
As previously reported, the situation began in 2000, when Miller, then a homosexual, joined in a civil union with lesbian Jenkins in the state of Vermont. Following an artificial insemination procedure from a male sperm donor, Miller gave birth to a daughter, named Isabella, in 2002. But even then, Miller had concern.
“There were numerous incidents of Janet going to [the Internet] and putting up naked women on the screen saver, and I would ask her to please change it,” Lisa later told the court, according to the Washington Post.
“I don’t have clean hands, either. Previously, before … the baby was born, [pornography] was used in our relationship,” she said. “When we moved to Vermont, Isabella was 4 months old, and I said this stuff has to go … There’s a baby in this house now. I don’t want that.”
In 2003, Miller and Jenkins split over continued tension in their relationship, and Miller moved to Virginia. She renounced homosexuality and reportedly turned to Jesus Christ for salvation.“It wasn’t a struggle,” she recalled of walking away from the homosexual lifestyle. “I felt peace.”
Miller, who had previously been married to her college boyfriend, said that she had struggled with being intimate with her husband due to an abusive childhood, which adversely affected their marriage. She turned to alcohol for solace, and later became involved in a relationship with a woman, but only for the companionship.
“I did not feel sexually attracted to women,” Miller said.
She met Jenkins at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting while seeking help and soon moved in with her, where one step led to another.
When the civil union between Miller and Jenkins was officially dissolved, the court gave custody to Miller, while also granting visitation rights to Jenkins.
While Miller did allow Isabella to spend time with Jenkins for a while, she reportedly became concerned at the information that her daughter was providing to her following the visitations.

Later, Miller testified to the court that the visits were causing great trauma to Isabella. She claimed that at six years old, the girl was forced to take baths together with Jenkins, and that the girl was openly touching herself inappropriately. She also stated that Isabella was withdrawn and talked about suicide at times.
“Isabella came home and said, ‘Mommy, will you please tell Janet that I don’t have to take a bath anymore at her house,’” Miller told reporters in 2008. “I asked her what happened. She said, ‘Janet took a bath with me.’ I asked her if she had a bathing suit on. ‘No, Mommy.’ She had no clothes on and it totally scared Isabella. She had never seen this woman except once in 2 ½ years and she takes a bath with her.”
“Last year, Isabella put a comb up to her neck and said she wanted to kill herself after one of the visits,” she outlined. “She took a comb and pressed it into her neck and said, ‘I want to kill myself.’ I don’t know where she got that. It was immediately after a visit. Other people have seen huge changes.”
Miller then filed for exclusive custody of Isabella, and the court agreed. She told the Washington Post, “I don’t see Janet as a parent, first and foremost. Secondly, I don’t want to expose Isabella to Janet’s lifestyle. It goes against all my beliefs. I am raising Isabella to pattern herself after Christ. That’s my job as a Christian mom. Homosexuality is a sin.”
However, Jenkins fought the ruling all the way up to the Virginia Supreme Court, which in 2008, ruled in favor of granting Miller’s former lesbian partner visitation rights. Miller refused.
The following year, family court judge Richard Cohen warned Miller that she must allow Isabella to visit Jenkins and threatened that if she did not do so, he would transfer full custody to Jenkins. In November 2009, Cohen followed through with his threats and ordered Miller to hand the child over to Jenkins.
However, Miller had fled the country with Isabella before he issued the transfer order, and for some time, none knew the whereabouts of the two. It was later discovered that they had fled to Nicaragua via the help of a number of Mennonite Christians and their contacts.
Zodhiates is accused of driving Miller from Virginia to Buffalo, New York, where she then crossed the Rainbow Bridge into Canada. (See the indictment here.)
American missionary to Nicaragua Timothy “Timo” Miller—no relation to any in the case—is also accused of arranging Lisa Miller’s travel arrangements from Canada and assisting her upon her arrival to Nicaragua.

HEAL THYSELF?-C.PETER WAGNER, CHARISMATIC HUCKSTER & FAITH HEALER IN HOSPITAL DUE TO FAILING HEALTH

FAMOUS FAITH HEALER IN HOSPITAL 
DUE TO FAILING HEALTH
BY JEFF MAPLES
SEE: http://pulpitandpen.org/2016/09/23/famous-faith-healer-in-hospital-due-to-failing-health/republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
Founder of the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), C. Peter Wagner, and proponent of charismatic chicanery such as faith healing, perhaps doesn’t have enough faith to heal himself. The famous huckster and author of the book, How to Have a Healing Ministry in Any Church, has been admitted to the hospital, according to Rebecca Greenwood of Christian Harvest International. Wagner’s wife, Doris, has written a letter asking for prayer, Greenwood reports on her Facebook page, stating,
This past Friday Peter was admitted back into the Heart Hospital in a very weakened condition. After several days of extensive testing, the general consensus of his many excellent doctors is that Peter has become severely dehydrated from the ongoing treatment to control his fluid retention. The treatment is very much a balancing act and the dilemma is that he is now both dehydrated and fluid overloaded at the same time…To further complicate the matter, the treatments for either problem cause the other issue to escalate further
While on the one hand, we hate to see a fellow image-bearer suffer, on the other hand, our first prayer should be for Wagner to repent and turn to Christ for the forgiveness of sins. Wagner has a major movement and propagated serious damnable error into the church. While his promotion of charismatic nonsense, blaspheming the Holy Spirit regularly, has made major inroads into the professing church, it goes without saying that his false teachings are being exposed right before our eyes.
Of course, at the age of 86, perhaps we should expect his special powers to start dwindling after all? So why aren’t all of his NAR faith healers flocking around him to heal him? At what point do they fold their cards and give up? By all means, anyone with an ounce of common sense would be able to see right through the shell game of faith healing. If it were true, there should be someone out there who could heal him–or perhaps he’d be able to heal himself.
Of course, the Scriptures nowhere allow for the concept of a “faith healing” ministry or even a “faith healer.” The notion is completely foreign to the word of God. Men and women who teach, preach and practice this junk are nothing bud frauds with self-interests.
They must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach. – Titus 1:11
Mr. Wagner, your time is running out. Repent!

RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IS CODE FOR BIGOTRY, CLAIMS OBAMA APPOINTEE

USCCR Chairman Martin Castro, a left-wing extremist from Chicago 
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IS CODE FOR BIGOTRY, CLAIMS OBAMA APPOINTEE 
BY ALEX NEWMAN
SEE: http://www.thenewamerican.com/culture/faith-and-morals/item/24117-religious-liberty-is-code-for-bigotry-claims-obama-appointeerepublished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
The terms “religious freedom” and “religious liberty” are actually just code words for racism, intolerance, sexism, discrimination, and more, according to a radical left-wing activist Obama appointee serving as chairman of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (USCCR). In a report released this month on balancing religious freedom with government decrees, the controversial outfit also called on policymakers to limit as much as possible religious exemptions on everything from mandated support for homosexual “marriage” to allowing men into girls’ bathrooms. Critics, though, are outraged at the bigotry and intolerance displayed by Obama’s extremist appointee.    
Analysts said the Obama administration may actually be laying the groundwork for stepped-up future persecution of Christians and others of faith who refuse to bow to the administration’s anti-Christian demands. Already in recent years, more than a few business owners, for example, have been all but destroyed for refusing to participate in homosexual “weddings.” A county clerk in Kentucky was even jailed for refusing to endorse homosexual “marriages” illegally decreed into existence by a rogue Supreme Court. Even nuns and religious organizations are being bludgeoned by government into financing moral outrages such as abortion and sex changes. And that may be just the beginning.   
Other voices on the controversial U.S. commission, though, publicly rejected the Obama appointee’s anti-religious freedom hysteria. Instead of using the force of government to beat down Christians, advocates of tolerance suggested that government decrees should be able to peacefully co-exist with religious freedom. For the Obama-appointed chair of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, one of four left-wing radicals appointed by Obama to the outfit, not including others appointed by Senator Harry Reid (D-Nev.), that will clearly be a problem.
“The phrases ‘religious liberty’ and ‘religious freedom’ … remain code words for discrimination, intolerance, racism, sexism, homophobia, Islamophobia, Christian supremacy or any form of intolerance,” said USCCR Chairman Martin Castro, a left-wing extremist from Chicago who boasts of providing “strategic consulting services” on having a “positive social impact” on “diverse communities,” whatever that means. Apparently “diverse communities” do not include people who disagree with his extreme bigotry against people of faith. He also brags about being a “proud product” of “affirmative action in higher education.”
In a statement released with the USCCR report, he blasted religion, particularly Christianity, and its alleged use as a tool of oppression. “Today, as in the past, religion is being used as both a weapon and a shield by those seeking to deny others equality,” Castro claimed, relying on a bizarre definition of “equality” popularized in recent years by far-left radicals. “We now see ‘religious liberty’ arguments sneaking their way back into our political and constitutional discourse (just like the concept of ‘state rights’) in an effort to undermine the rights of some Americans.”
Those imagined “rights” being undermined in Castro’s imagination include, for instance, the alleged “right” to force bakers and florists to endorse homosexual “marriage” at government gun-point. By contrast, the sovereign right of the people of the states to govern themselves, and the religious rights of American individuals and churches, are explicitly protected in the U.S. Constitution.   
For Castro, though, the imagined right to force other Americans to violate their conscience trumps the constitutionally protected right to live out one’s faith and moral principles. “This generation of Americans must stand up and speak out to ensure that religion never again be twisted to deny others the full promise of America,” he argued. Presumably, he had in mind groups like the Little Sisters of the Poor, who have been fighting for religious liberty and against Obama’s extreme efforts to force the nuns to pay for abortion-inducing drugs and other outrages against their beliefs.  
The radical remarks equating religious freedom with hatred and oppression came in a statement released by Castro with a nearly 300-page USCCR screed dubbed Peaceful Coexistence: Reconciling Non-discrimination Principles with Civil Liberties. Among other primary recommendations, the report claims that “overly-broad [sic] religious exemptions unduly burden nondiscrimination laws and policies.” As such, the report calls for religious liberty to be curtailed. “Federal and state courts, lawmakers, and policy-makers at every level must tailor religious exceptions to civil liberties and civil rights protections as narrowly as applicable law requires,” the report argued, as if the commission could dictate demands to courts and lawmakers.
The report targets a wide array of religious liberties, which the commissioners argue should be restricted or abolished. Among other examples cited of conflicts between religious freedom and “nondiscrimination principles” is “when religious institutions and organizations claim the freedom under constitutional and statutory law to choose leaders, members or employees according to the tenets of their faith, even if the choice would violate employment, disability, or other laws.” In other words, government should have a bigger say in choosing church leaders. “It arises also when individuals claim the freedom to adhere to religious principles regardless of otherwise applicable law governing their conduct,” the report found.
The commission recommended that federal and state laws on religious freedom be modified and “clarified” to further restrict the rights of religious people and institutions. For example, the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act should be changed to ensure that religious freedom applies “only to the extent that they do not unduly burden civil liberties and civil rights protections against status-based discrimination.” Imagine a situation in which the U.S. government claimed that a woman posing as a man must be accepted to the priesthood of the Catholic Church because of “status-based discrimination protections,” and you get the idea.
But not everyone on the commission agreed with the brazen attack on religious freedom, which was viewed as so crucial by America’s founders that it was enshrined in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution’s Bill of Rights. “The secular … side believes that the nondiscrimination principles should take precedence over religious liberty principles,” explained Peter Kirsanow, a member of the commission who requested that the issue be taken up in the first place but dissented from the outfit’s anti-religious liberty conclusions.
“I sought to see if a balance could be struck between the two principles and whether they could peacefully coexist,” Kirsanow continued. “Unfortunately it’s pretty clear at least one side doesn’t think that they can.” That “side,” of course, is the side that believes the Supreme Court can invent homosexual “marriage” by judicial fiat, and then have government coerce everyone else into endorsing said “marriages,” regardless of religious beliefs.
Another dissenting commissioner, University of San Diego law professor Gail Heriot, also objected to the report’s conclusions. “The Commission majority takes a complex subject and tries to make it simple — far too simple,” Heriot argued in a statement. “Not many legal or constitutional issues come down to good guys vs. bad guys.” In this case, though, in the view of Obama’s appointees, the bad guys are Christians and Jews who believe the doctrines and teachings of their religions, and the good guys are those who would imprison or destroy those Christians or Jews for their beliefs.   
Christian leaders also slammed the bizarre rantings by Castro. Catholic Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore, chairman of the U.S. bishops’ Ad Hoc Committee for Religious Liberty, lambasted the Obama appointee’s “reckless” remarks in a statement. “Castro makes the shocking suggestion that Catholic, evangelical, orthodox Jewish, Mormon, and Muslim communities are comparable to fringe segregationists from the civil rights era,” Lori said. “These statements painting those who support religious freedom with the broad brush of bigotry are reckless and reveal a profound disregard for the religious foundations of his own work.”
The archbishop also called for Castro and others to show tolerance toward people with other viewpoints. “In a pluralistic society, there will be institutions with views at odds with popular opinion,” Lori said. “The Chairman’s statement suggests that the USCCR does not see the United States as a pluralistic society. We respect those who disagree with what we teach. Can they respect us?”
The unhinged attack on religious freedom from Obama’s USCCR appointees comes shortly after Obama’s extremist-dominated Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) ruled that displaying the Gadsden Flag (“Don’t Tread On Me”) was creating a “hostile work environment.” As reported by The New American‘s Joe Wolverton last month, “the Obama administration’s decision to overrule the employer’s initial dismissal of this complaint will cast a long legal shadow over all employers, public and private.” And the attacks continue to grow more extreme with each passing day.
With the USCCR and other federal bureaucracies increasingly targeting Americans’ most fundamental God-given rights for destruction, it is past time for Congress to step in. Any government agency or commission that attacks religious freedom and hundreds of millions of religious Americans, for example, has no business receiving tax funding from Americans — or even existing in the first place. America was founded on religious freedom. Perhaps once the next Congress begins, lawmakers can start pruning the out-of-control federal bureaucracy, de-funding and abolishing rogue and unconstitutional agencies, beginning with Castro’s anti-constitutional USCCR.

MUSEUM OF AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY OPENS, TELLING STORY OF “SINFUL SLAVERY, SEGREGATION” IN NATION’S PAST 
BY HEATHER CLARK
SEE: http://christiannews.net/2016/09/25/museum-of-african-american-history-opens-telling-story-of-sinful-slavery-segregation-in-nations-past/republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
WASHINGTON — The Smithsonian Museum of African American History opened its doors to the public on Saturday, taking visitors on a journey through America’s past from its struggles with the national sin of slavery and segregation to the days when blacks were finally recognized as being equal to whites.
The 400,000 square foot museum was first proposed in 1915 by African American veterans of the civil war, and in 2003, its creation was approved by Congress, putting in motion a 13-year effort to tell America’s story through the eyes of its black citizens.
The $540 million facility features over 36,000 donated artifacts, including items used to buy slaves, a sample segregated railway car, and the shawl of underground railroad hero Harriet Tubman, as well as items surrounding contributions blacks have made to America’s history.
The lower floors of the museum tell the story of the nation’s stain of slavery and segregation from its early years to the 1950’s, while the upper levels provide more light-hearted examples of black celebrities in modern America.
Director Lonnie Bunch told NPR that the museum serve to “remember not just the well-known, but also those famous only to their families, whose lives in quiet ways shaped this nation.”
“We remember so we can ponder the pain of slavery, segregation and second-class citizenry, but we also find the resiliency, the faith, the hope, the joy that is so much a part of the African-American community,” she said.
Passes for the opening weekend of the Museum of African American history sold out, and approximately 7,000 people were in attendance for the grand opening ceremony on Saturday. Barack Obama and George W. Bush were among those who spoke during the event.
“A great nation does not hide its history. It faces its flaws, and corrects them,” Bush said. “This museum tells the truth that a country founded on the promise of liberty held millions in chains, that the price of our union was America’s original sin. From the beginning some spoke to truth. John Adams called slavery an evil of colossal magnitude.”
“Their voices were not heeded and often not heard, but they were known to a power greater than any on earth—One who loves His children and meant them to be free,” he stated.
museum-compressedObama told those gathered, “African American history is not somehow separate than the American story. It is not the underside of the American story. It is central to the American story.”
“The very fact of this day does not prove that America is perfect, but it does validate the ideas of our founding—that this country born of change, of revolution, of we the people, that this country can get better,” he said.
According to the Spurgeon Center in Kansas City, Missouri, slave owners and others, particularly in the South, openly burned the sermons of well-known preacher Charles Spurgeon in the 1800’s and threatened to kill him due to his rebuke of the sin of slavery.
“Spurgeon’s character was assassinated throughout the Confederacy. His sermons, which in 1862-1863 sold one million copies annually, were censured. His books, which sold 1,000 copies per minute at trade shows, were publicly destroyed. Sermon bonfires illuminated jail yards, plantations, and bookshops throughout the Southern states,” it outlines.
“I do from my inmost soul detest slavery … and although I commune at the Lord’s table with men of all creeds, yet with a slave-holder I have no fellowship of any sort or kind. Whenever one has called upon me, I have considered it my duty to express my detestation of his wickedness, and I would as soon think of receiving a murderer into my church … as a man stealer,” Spurgeon once said.
“[I]t was God that gave an Abraham Lincoln, who led the nation onward till ‘Emancipation’ flamed upon its banners.”
But slavery also existed in the North, as the site Slavery in the North explains, “Slaves were auctioned openly in the Market House of Philadelphia; in the shadow of Congregational churches in Rhode Island; in Boston taverns and warehouses; and weekly, sometimes daily, in Merchant’s Coffee House of New York. ”
While a number of the Founding Fathers owned slaves (some of them being said as treating their slaves kindly), others eventually became supportive of abolitionist efforts, including Statesmen Alexander Hamilton and Benjamin Franklin, as well as the first U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Jay.


COMMON CORE: THE DESTRUCTIVE CAPACITY OF DAVID COLEMAN

THE DESTRUCTIVE CAPACITY OF 
DAVID COLEMAN
BY JANE ROBBINS
SEE: http://truthinamericaneducation.com/common-core-state-standards/destructive-capacity-david-coleman/republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
Since Common Core architect David Coleman took over as president of the College Board, the scandals or at least embarrassments have come fast and furious (see here and here). The latest is a Reuters investigation, reported by Ed Week, that discovered the College Board’s vaunted redesign of the SAT math section erects even more hurdles to students who traditionally score lower anyway (low-income and minority students). This is because the new math section focuses more on reading than actually working math problems, so a student who is good at math but less so at reading will score lower on math than he would have under the traditional SAT design.
The problem is the new SAT’s alignment with the Common Core national standards. The Common Core math standards are based on the idea that knowing math is insufficient; a student must be able to read a tome and apply math skills to the supposed “real-life” problem it presents. (The engineers who brought the Apollo 13 astronauts home on a crippled spacecraft somehow managed to apply their antiquated math education to a real-world problem, but pay no attention to that.) While the text-heavy approach may work for strong readers, turning a math test into a reading test creates unnecessary problems for students who traditionally don’t score as well on the SAT anyway.
From reviewing internal emails, Reuters discovered that College Board officials “knew of the potential problem with the word-heavy math questions because outside academics raised the issue as they reviewed items while they were being developed.” And in a confidential 2014 test run, only about half the students even finished the math section.
Maybe Coleman and Co. intended to correct the problem, but apparently they never got around to it. Or maybe they’re so invested in the Common Core ideology of “deeper conceptual understanding” that they simply don’t care.
So assume the situation of an immigrant student (call him Carlos) whose family speaks Spanish at home. Assume he’s a math whiz but still struggles with English, because he’s been in the country only five or six years. With the old SAT he might have performed poorly on the verbal portion but scored an 800 on the math. With the new test, he’ll perform poorly on both. Well done, Mr. Coleman.
Not only will Carlos suffer from this ideological redesign, but his school may as well. This is because the new fed-ed bill, the Every Student Succeeds Act, allows states to replace their high-school achievement tests with the SAT. The ramifications of the redesign are thus troubling both for Carlos and for honest accountability for schools.
Dr. Sandra Stotsky raised a related concern years ago about Common Core math, in that case with respect to children in the early grades. Since Common Core applies the word-heavy approach across K-12, young children are also expected to read paragraphs rather than simply grasp math calculations. This means, Dr. Stotsky warned, that many little boys might struggle with math even if they have a gift for numbers – because little boys are generally less verbal than little girls. Johnny might be proud that he can work math problems more quickly than anyone in the class, but don’t worry, Common Core will beat that sense of accomplishment out of him.
Common Core theorists call this “productive struggle.” Normal people might call it academic malpractice. By all means, let’s extend it to teenagers as well.
The Common Core realignment of the SAT math section will hurt low-income students in other ways. In a Pioneer Institute report, mathematician James Milgram and testing expert Richard Phelps explained that aligning the SAT with Common Core essentially converts it from a test predicting college success to one that simply measures high-school achievement. These experts pointed out that an achievement test is less effective at identifying students with significant STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) potential who attend schools with inferior science and math programs. And the Common Core math standards – which stop with an incomplete Algebra II course – will ensure that many schools, especially those serving low-income students, will have such inferior programs.
Michael Cohen, a prominent developer of and cheerleader for Common Core, testified several years ago that we won’t know the full effects of Common Core “until an entire cohort of students, from kindergarten through high school graduation, has been effectively exposed to Common Core teaching.” Having already lowered national test scoresincreased the achievement gapdriven excellent teachers out of the profession, and now wrecked the SAT, it looks like Common Core is ahead of schedule. Mr. Cohen underestimated the destructive capacity of Mr. Coleman.

An honest enemy is better than a false friend. When in doubt, pay more attention to what people do and less to what they say. Actions not only speak louder than words, they are more difficult to fake. —Zero Dean
The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies. It comes from your friends and loved ones.
One Daughter’s Antipathy
What would make the daughter of Phyllis Schlafly so hate her mother that she would seek to destroy her life's work? What would make her beliefs be the antithesis of her mother’s life work and faith? What would make that same daughter cause dissention and defy court orders at Eagle Forum’s 2016 Council Meeting? And what would make that daughter go against Council laws and try to videotape one of her quislings who had no right to even be on the stage to speak?
Worse yet, what would make that same daughter lie and tell others that her mother blessed this evil venture on her deathbed? Phyllis made a clean break of it when she knew she was dying; she made a legal declaration that her daughter, Anne Cori, and the litigants and their cohorts working to destroy Eagle Forum, were not to be allowed into her home.
On the day that Phyllis died, Ms. Cori made a surprise visit to her mother’s home contrary to the instructions of her mother and her healthcare representative.
Ms. Cori spent 45 minutes with her mother, while Phyllis’ dear friend, Kathleen, watched from the doorway. Anne later claimed that her mother smiled, squeezed her hand, forgave her, and that Anne would carry on Phyllis’s legacy. The problem with this massive deception is that Phyllis had been in a coma for over 10 hours, as confirmed by multiple witnesses including a home health care assistant. Kathleen documented the truth, and knew that Phyllis could not, and did not, do anything Anne claimed.
To top it off, Ms. Cori pretended to sign a contract with a speaker on behalf of Missouri Eagle Forum without legal authority. Ms. Cori uses her title "vice-chair" of Eagle Forum, which has no executive authority and no power to bind Missouri Eagle Forum.
Sometimes the people you’d take a bullet for are the ones behind the trigger. Sadly, it’s often with friends and family.
The Brilliant Schlafly Family
The 2016 Eagle Forum Council was an outstanding display of love for the founder, Phyllis Schlafly. Phyllis finished her master’s degree in a matter of months. When someone said to Phyllis, “Well, you’re not even a lawyer,” she went back to law school in her 50s and became a lawyer. Phyllis was at the center of conservative politics for about 25% of the length of the entire republic. Here she is, JD '78, left, with law school classmates, Mary Stolar, JD '79, and. Stephen Vossmeyer, JD '77.
Phyllis’s entire family has followed in their parents’ footsteps regarding education. Andrew, and Liza are attorneys, and John is both an attorney and CPA. Dr. Bruce is a hand surgeon, and Roger has a PhD in mathematics. Ms. Cori has her undergrad degree in history from Georgetown University, and she is a cook who owns the Kitchen Conservatory, a retailer which offers cooking classes.
Anne married Tom Cori, a widower and former CEO of Sigma-Aldrich, a Merck Company, in 2004. Ms. Cori used to cater affairs for Tom’s first wife, who was on the board of Planned Parenthood.
The Gang of Six Turns Against Phyllis
Last year, when Phyllis endorsed Donald Trump for President, board members who were once close to her turned against her, led by her youngest child, Anne Cori.
Six of the eleven board members of Eagle Forum (501c4) desired to take over the organization behind Phyllis’s back and remove her and the board’s choice as president, Ed Martin. Those six rogue board members are Anne Cori of Missouri, Eunie Smith of Alabama, Cathie Adams of Texas, Rosina Kovar of Colorado, Shirley Curry of Tennessee, and Carolyn McLarty of Oklahoma. Dominionist Donna Hearne is not on the board, but is in bed with the rest of these traitorous women. She is the Missouri operative whose donors are drying up, and she has worked to plan the takeover.
These six, and a few Eagles who agree with them, are supporters of Ted Cruz or Never Trumpers. Anne Cori, who has declared herself “pro-choice,” strongly supported Ted Cruz who is committed to rewriting the Constitution in an Article V Convention. Does Anne Cori support a Con-Con? Who knows, but that too is anathema to her mother’s beliefs. Ms. Cori did nothing to stop Con-Con as it sailed to passage in Missouri last year, until national Eagle Forum intervened, another reason her mother fired her.
Big power and money are behind this NWO move. Remember, former Attorney General, Ken Cuccinelli is the same person who is an outspoken supporter of "Convention of States," and the same person who threw the tantrum trying to change the rules on the convention floor. Even though Ken is part of the Virginia delegation (not Texas), Ken was the person who escorted Heidi Cruz out of the convention as the crowd heckled her because of her husband’s speech when he failed to endorse Trump. The Con-Con network is central to the Cruz campaign and its strategy.
Dissention at Eagle Council
The very first day of the Council meeting, the “Gang of Six” and their devotees showed up sporting badges that said, “For Phyllis.” In fact, it is the opposite, they are against Phyllis and everything Eagle Forum stands for, because Phyllis endorsed Donald J. Trump for president. The reality is that none of this Gang of Six or their adherents are really “For Phyllis.” They are with her pro-choice, pro-Cruz daughter, Anne Cori, and some of them have jumped on the Cruz bandwagon for a Constitutional Convention, which is needed for Cruz’s North American Union.
The liberal law firm, Spencer Fane LLC, being used by Cori and gang, has current active ties with Planned Parenthood. Their takeover attempt seeks to put Cori in charge of Eagle Forum; they are not searching for a new leader as they pretended to be doing.
As to the Gang of 6, Eagle Council confirmed that they are rejected by the vast majority of Eagles when former Oregon State Senator, Marylin Shannon asked for a vote from us, and she got it in spades!
Fewer than 5% of attendees sided with the Gang of 6. The handful who did support the Gang of 6 resorted to rude, disruptive behavior. Multiple attendees complained to Andy Schlafly about conduct by the Gang's co-conspirators during the conference.
On Sunday, after Publius Huldah spoke, various state members took the stage to give their reports. The specific names of speakers, and what they would talk about was determined beforehand, and anyone from the “Gang of Six” was not to disrupt the conference. However, Deborah Love of Alabama took the stage as an attempt to use a proxy in defiance of a court order which the Gang of Six litigants was required to respect/or obey. She was not accepted because her name was not on the court order dated that Friday when Eagle Council began.
She apparently doesn’t know the status of her state either, because she claimed they’d fought off the Article V Constitutional Convention in Alabama. I beg to differ with her, because in early 2015, they passed a call of the unlawful and unconstitutional Convention of States.
Ed Martin told her she was not allowed to speak and should remove herself from the stage, but she would not. Joyce Koth, who was sitting two seats to my right, started singing, America the Beautiful, and we all joined in song. Zina, who was sitting to my left stood up and went to the stage and turned the microphone upside down, and then turned her back on Deborah Love. We succeeded in drowning her out.
Anne Cori tried to film Deborah Love, which again, is not allowed, so Joyce stepped in front of her.
Andy Schlafly mentioned that several members at Eagle Council observed that Ms. Cori's constant grin reminded them of the Joker.
One gentleman who sat next to Tom Cori told me that Tom said he and his wife always sit at separate tables so they could later compare notes.
Anne Cori Ousted
On Sunday, after Eagle Council completed, another conservative board of directors, (501c3), which is the larger organization, met at Phyllis's home and kicked Anne Cori and one of her supporters off its board, by a nearly unanimous vote. They had to threaten to call the police to get Ms. Cori to leave.
The Gang of Six has left a string of unpaid bills to innocent vendors of Eagle Forum, despite having the funding to pay them. The Gang is late again in approving payment of the lease obligation on the office in D.C.
They never allowed Eagle Forum to pay its share, or any share, of the very successful pro-life "Life of the Party" event during the convention in Cleveland. Their conduct impacts the pro-life issue because the Gang of 6 continued to block the payment of expenses for Phyllis’s traditional pro-life event at the Republican convention. Any one of the six could stop the interference of this pro-life event by standing up for life, or by dropping their unjustified lawsuit against Eagle Forum. Ed Martin had to find another way to pay for this important event.
Who is Tom Cori?
Tom Cori sits on the Board of Trustees of the Edward Mallinckrodt, Jr. Foundation and they are involved in embryonic stem cell research. Mallinckrodt is a private foundation that funds basic biomedical research in St Louis and throughout the United States.
Embryonic stem cells, as their name suggests, are derived from embryos. Most embryonic stem cells are derived from embryos that develop from eggs that have been fertilized in vitro—in an in vitro fertilization clinic—and then donated for research purposes with informed consent of the donors.
The mission of the Foundation is to support early stage investigators engaged in biomedical research that has the potential to significantly advance the understanding, diagnosis, or treatment of disease.
An article in the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, Human Embryo Research is Illegal, Immoral and Unnecessary, stands against stem cell research, as do many other Christian denominations. As stated in the article, “This proposal is immoral because it violates a central tenet of all civilized codes on human experimentation beginning with the Nuremberg Code: It approves doing deadly harm to a member of the human species solely for the sake of potential benefit to others.” Tom Cori’s mother was Jewish, yet he apparently approves of this immoral activity.
Carnegie Foundation and the Coris
There were five major industrialists who financed socialist and terrorist causes, and one of them was Andrew Carnegie, steel magnate and British Chartist. The Carnegie Institute for Science was founded in 1895 by Pilgrims Society member, Andrew Carnegie.
It is this latter Institute for Science which is of interest. Why? Because Tom Cori, husband of Anne Cori, is a Trustee. If you scroll to page 21 in the Carnegie Institute website, you will see Tom and Anne Cori listed as individuals who have made lifetime contributions of between $100,000 and $999,999.
Both Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundation monies went to promote John Dewey, Marxism, a One-World-Government agenda, and Socialism. The foundations (principally the Rockefeller and Carnegie) stimulated two-thirds of the total endowment funding of all institutions of higher learning in America during the first third of the 20th century. If you love common core, you’ll love Carnegie, their destruction of American education is legend.
One of the greatest tricks perpetrated on the public has been turning the robber barons /elites into philanthropists. This was established mainly by media where they convinced the public that they had given up their power in the interests of society and gave their money to foundations and philanthropic organizations. They haven’t faded away; they exercise their power and control, using their wealth and tax exempt status to advance the elite’s agenda for complete global domination.  Tom and Anne Cori are funding them!
They are the very KINGMAKERS whom Phyllis identified in her classic book, A Choice, Not an Echo.
Eagle Council Memorial
The memorial for Phyllis at Eagle Council was held Saturday morning. There were a number of speakers, including her sons. Roger told a great story about his childhood and how he was always testing his mother’s limits. They were crossing the street and Phyllis told him to stay within the crosswalk. Roger responded that he’d still be dead if a car hit him inside or outside of the crosswalk. Phyllis, always quick with a response said, “But we’d have a better lawsuit if you’re within the crosswalk.”
Another speaker was Texas Congressman Louis Gohmert, who was a Cruz supporter and has never endorsed Mr. Trump. However, he has stated he will vote for Trump to keep Hillary out of the White House. I was standing in the back of the pavilion and watched as Gohmert came down the side aisle on his way out. Ms. Cori was sitting alone in the very back, and she and Gohmert embraced and spoke for a good while, birds of a feather I imagined.
Conclusion
One has to wonder if Tom Cori, corporate raider for Sigma-Aldrich, has been advising his wife how to destroy her mother’s conservative organization. Ms. Cori’s stances are anathema to Phyllis’s Eagle Forum policies. Phyllis was pro-life, pro-family, pro-academic education, and pro-Constitution. Tom and Anne Cori stand in total opposition to these policies.
Apparently the other five women on the board, along with a few followers, are in agreement with Cori’s policies and also support Ted Cruz, who has finally endorsed Donald J. Trump for president, albeit too late to redeem his stature after his Convention speech.
Anne Cori’s actions are those of a daughter who detests her own mother, and wishes to destroy her legacy. The monies given to Eagle Forum by members is being wasted on these hostile lawsuits. Even at 92, Phyllis handled them as she handled her adversaries, without letting them ruin her day.
Anne Cori, and the women from Eagle Forum who stand with her, should resign as Phyllis asked them all to do, and this includes those in my state of Tennessee, as well as the ones in California. Their treatment of Eagle Forum’s founder is dishonorable and contemptible.
The Lord promised each of us three score and ten in Psalm 90:10. God blessed both Phyllis and us with an extra 22 years of her brilliance. Thanks be to God!
Eagle Forum stands as a bastion of conservative light in an America who desperately needs their leadership and policies to continue. President Ed Martin, Phyllis’s loyal Eagles, and her sons, are well equipped to carry on her legacy.

DHS & FEDS FEVERISHLY GRANT IMMIGRANTS CITIZENSHIP TO INCREASE HILLARY VOTE



FEDS FEVERISHLY GRANT IMMIGRANTS CITIZENSHIP TO INCREASE HILLARY VOTE

BY SELWYN DUKE
What do you call people who use foreigners to win power? The hirers of mercenaries? In today’s political campaigns (a military term, interestingly), they’re called something else: statist public officials.
And they’re hard at work, an internal Obama administration e-mail shows, trying to turn as many foreigners as possible into citizens in time to vote in the November 8 election. As Fox News reports:
The email, from a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services field office chief and part of a chain of correspondence within the agency, urges the unnamed recipient to swear in as many citizens as possible “due to the election year.”
“The Field Office due to the election year needs to process as many of their N-400 cases as possible between now and FY 2016,” reads the email, which was disclosed to FoxNews.com by Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., who chairs the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
“If you have cases in this category or other pending, you are encouraged to take advantage of the OT if you can,” the email continues. “This will be an opportunity to move your pending naturalization cases. If you have not volunteered for OT, please consider and let me know if you are interested.”
Parts of the email were redacted before it was disclosed to FoxNews.com, but it was sent by the branch chief of the Houston Field Office District 17. It was not clear to whom it was addressed.
“I couldn’t have said it better!” reads the July 21 note introducing the forwarded missive. “It’s the end of the year crunch time, so let’s get crunchy! Go Team Houston! Thanks for all your hard work!”
The e-mail’s release amounts to the disclosure of a dirty little secret about a dirty, but poorly kept, big one: Today’s immigration, as I wrote in 2014, is a massive Democrat “get in the vote” drive. In other words, with 85 percent of our post-1965 newcomers hailing from the Third World and Asia — and with 70 to 90 percent of them voting Democrat upon being naturalized — it’s no mystery why Democrats have become the immigration party. As to my quoted terminology, as I explained in 2014:
While [getting out the vote] involves getting as many as possible of the set number of sympathetic potential voters to the polls, getting in the vote is the process by which you increase that number of sympathetic voters. This process is…done in two ways. One is by indoctrinating people — especially young people — via academia, the media and entertainment. The second way is through immigration.
Why immigration? Because virtually the whole world is, to use our provisional (and lacking) political terminology, to the “left” of America. In addition, indoctrinating a young person is effective, but it’s an expensive process that must continue throughout his formative and teen years. Far easier is to import ready-made leftists. The results are quicker, too: the targeted babe born today won’t be entering the voting booth for 18 years. An immigrant, however, can perhaps be naturalized in just a few years. And politicians are more interested in the next election than in a future election involving the next person to hold their seat.
Given that under “the Obama administration, 1,811 aliens from terrorist countries were granted U.S. citizenship instead of being deported,” as Breitbart writes today, a sane policy would be to slow down and apply a fine-tooth comb to naturalizations. Instead, the site continues, the “Obama administration ended the program that uncovered the extensive [naturalization] fraud” and is “now in full and blind rubber stamp mode to crank out new citizens,” as Jessica Vaughan, director of Policy Studies for the Center for Immigration Studies, put it. Nothing, it appears, matters more than the attainment of power — not even American lives.
And make no mistake, writes American Thinker’s Rick Moran, this “is an order direct from the top. For months, the administration has been urging legal immigrants to become citizens so they can vote against Donald Trump in November. Immigration officials have been tasked to make that a reality.” As to the legality, Moran continues, “On the surface, these exhortations would appear to violate the Hatch Act — the law that prevents executive department employees from engaging in political activity. You could easily define the activity of immigration officials as a quasi-“Get Out the Vote” strategy to help Hillary Clinton get elected. But as long as there is no overt coordination with the Clinton campaign, it would be tough to prove.”
Yet no coordination is necessary, as the strategy of winning political power by diluting Western populations with “left”-leaning foreigners is well known among, and zealously advanced by, pseudo-elite insiders. For example, Briton Andrew Neather, once an advisor to ex-prime minister Tony Blair, confessed in 2009 that the massive immigration into the United Kingdom over the previous 15 years was designed to “rub the Right’s nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date.” Articulating the treasonous spirit even more brazenly, Social Democrat Swedish politician, multi-culturalist, and immigrationist Mona Sahlin announced in 2001 that “the Swedes must be integrated into the new Sweden; the old Sweden is never coming back.” Rep. Kurt Schrader (D-Ore.) said last year, “Immigration reform [amnesty] is probably the biggest issue of the 21st century. It will decide who is in charge of this country for the next 20 or 30 years.” Also in 2015, Barack Obama said he was “pretty optimistic” conservatism would be neutralized “because this country just becomes more and more of a hodgepodge of folks.”
Then consider the testimony of Fredo Arias-King, ex-aide to former Mexican president-elect Vicente Fox. About how he and his colleagues spoke to 50 US congressmen and senators back in 1999 and 2000 he writes, “[The Democrat legislators] seemed more interested in those immigrants and their offspring as a tool to increase the role of the government in society and the economy. Several of them tended to see Latin American immigrants and even Latino constituents as both more dependent on and accepting of active government programs and the political class guaranteeing those programs, a point they emphasized more than the voting per se. Moreover, they saw Latinos as more loyal and ‘dependable’ in supporting a patron-client system and in building reliable patronage networks to circumvent the exigencies of political life as devised by the Founding Fathers.”
This is why Obama and his fellow travelers push not just immigration but also illegal migration and practically make complaints of micro aggressions sufficient grounds for being granted “refugee” status. It’s also why a 2015 report, by radio personality Sue Payne, about a secret Obama administration amnesty plan rings true. As she related, administration sociopolitical engineers intend to use the new illegal aliens as “seedlings” that will develop a “country within a country.” These foreigners will “navigate, not assimilate,” she said, as they eventually “take over the host,” coming “out of the shadows” and “pushing the citizens into the shadows.”
If you can’t get the people to change the government, change the people. After creating that country within a country, make it the new country by feeding it and growing it until it consumes all. And then feeding and growing government until it consumes all, is already as good as done.

DHS Rubber-Stamping Citizenships Prior to Election

DHS RUBBER-STAMPING CITIZENSHIPS 

PRIOR TO ELECTION

Agency waving security checks to register new immigrant voters

BY CLIFFORD CUNNINGHAM
SEE: http://www.infowars.com/dhs-rubber-stamping-citizenships-prior-to-election/republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
DHS is approving as many citizenship applications as possible in an effort to directly influence the the presidential election, internal documents show.
Senate Republicans obtained an email showing a Texas immigration office demanding volunteers to work overtime in an effort to grant as many people citizenship as possible before the end of September, giving them time to register to vote before the election in November.
The July memo, from a branch chief at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service’s Houston office, said the goal was to approve as many citizenship applications as possible “due to the election year.”
Democrats and their pro-amnesty allies launched an effort earlier this year to help one million permanent residents become citizens and registered to vote to defeat Donald Trump, but fell almost 400,000 people short. The influx of nearly 600,000 new citizenship applications overwhelmed the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service, which is now working to clear the backlog.
The newly revealed memo casts suspicion on the claim 800 illegal immigrants from countries tied to terrorism were approved for citizenship, despite being ordered out of the country, “by accident” because USCIS did not check their fingerprints.
Ironically, a similar effort to rush citizenship applications to influence an election was undertaken by President Bill Clinton prior to the 1996 election. Tens of thousands of people were granted citizenship despite criminal records, while nearly 200,000 never received fingerprint checks.
The U.S. Border Patrol has already indicated the number of families and unaccompanied minors crossing the border this year is set to exceed the total number in 2014, with most coming from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.
It is no secret that globalist interests intend to use the massive influx of illegal immigration to the U.S. to create a permanent social underclass that will be used as a tool to advance their agenda.


THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING PHONICS TO YOUR OWN CHILDREN

ALEX NEWMAN: THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING PHONICS TO YOUR OWN CHILDREN 
Published on Mar 31, 2016
“How many parents … send their children to school so central planners can mold them into functionally illiterate cogs in a centrally planned machine, having just enough knowledge to do their preassigned task? How will such cogs be able to think critically, much less sustain liberty and the American experiment? The short answer is that they will not – and that is the point.” – The Authors

Utopian dictators like Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot and Mao are criminals – genocidal psychopaths who have killed more human beings in the last hundred years than any other ideologues in history. They don’t limit their murder to individuals, but to entire nations.

In the United States another form of utopians, the “progressives,” have tried to destroy traditional America by strategically dumbing down her people. America’s future is being crippled on purpose in order to fundamentally transform the nation, its values and its system of government. Laid out a century ago by progressive luminary John Dewey, the fruits of his schemes are plain to see today. Dewey got rid of the traditional intensive phonics method of instruction and imposed a “look-say,” “sight” or “whole-word” method that forces children to read English as if it were Chinese. The method is widely used in today’s public schools, which is a major reason there are so many failing public schools that cannot teach children the basics. This can only be considered a blatant form of child abuse.

American author and veteran educator Samuel Blumenfeld and journalist Alex Newman have taken on the public education establishment as never before and exposed it for the de facto criminal enterprise it is.

“Crimes of the Educators” reveals how the architects of America’s public school disaster implemented a plan to socialize the United States by knowingly and willingly dumbing down the population, a mission now closer to success than ever as the Obama administration works relentlessly to nationalize K-12 schooling with Common Core.

The whole-word method of teaching children to read – introduced by John Dewey and colleagues in the early 20th century and which permeates Common Core – is a significant cause of dyslexia among students. Public education’s war against religion, the “great American math disaster,” promotion of death education and the government’s plan to lower standards for all so that “no one is left behind” are destroying the logic, reasoning and overall educational prowess of America’s next generation.

According to the Program for International Student Assessment, which collects test results from 65 countries for its rankings:

In reading, students in 19 other locales scored higher than U.S. students
In science, 22 education systems scored above the U.S.
In mathematics, 29 nations and other jurisdictions outperformed the United States
Journalist Henry Mencken said it best in 1924 when he wrote that the aim of public education is “to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality.”

It is time to hold the Department of Education accountable for the crimes of the educators.

About the Authors

Samuel L. Blumenfeld authored eight books on education, including: “Is Public Education Necessary?” “NEA: Trojan Horse in American Education,” “The Whole Language/OBE Fraud” and “Homeschooling: A Parent’s Guide to Teaching Children.”

Alex Newman is an international journalist, educator and consultant who is currently based in Europe but has lived on four continents. He has a degree in journalism from the University of Florida and has worked for numerous publications in the U.S. and abroad.
