New Immigration Bills Up For Congressional Approval

Borders
The popularity of US President Donald Trump got a big boost after he sent Congress his immigration legislation priorities last 9 October, including building a controversial border wall, speeding up deportations and dramatically increasing the number of officials involved in enforcement.

The list, which also includes preventing immigrants from sponsoring their extended families to move to the US, drew immediate fire from Democratic leaders in Congress, who said it goes "far beyond what is reasonable."

Hollywood's Double Standard in Weinstein And Clinton Cases

Weinstein and Clinton
Not only was Harvey Weinstein a political ally and a major donor to Hillary and Bill Clinton and the Clinton Foundation, but his alleged sexual misconduct has refocused attention on Bill's own checkered past as the tide turns against powerful men who take advantage of women.

"The question is on everyone’s lips: how could we have let Weinstein’s crimes continue for so long? Yet there’s little in the Weinstein story — the years of whispers of impropriety, the past allegations by women, the intimate connection with a party that advertises itself as a defender of women — that doesn’t apply to Bill Clinton," said Jacobin’s Branko Marcetic.

No More Burqa in Austria

Austria
Muslim women in Austria were FINALLY forced by police to remove their facial coverings last 1 October, as an anti-burqa law came into effect.

The so-called 'burqa ban' prohibits facial coverings including niqabs and burqas, and also places restrictions on surgical masks, ski masks and clown make-up worn in public.

Genuine Women Power Throws Support to Pres. Trump

Women's Rally
Julie Zauzmer of the Washington Post reported that one after another, the thousands of women who gathered for a prayer rally on the Mall last 9 October said that when they decided to travel to Washington for this event, they had in mind another assembly of women in the same place: the Women's March on the day following the presidential inauguration, which drew massive crowds of protesters in "pussy hats."

Those women marchers didn’t stand for them, the Christian women said.

Michelle Obama Questions American Women's Choice

Michelle Obama
The former first lady of the United States Michelle Obama not only questioned, but insulted women who did not cast a ballot for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election. She said last 27 September in Boston that they "voted against their own voice."

What? Did she say they should vote form somebody just because she is a woman? Is that not an insult to the intelligence of every woman who voted for President Donald Trump because of the crooked way Hillary handled her official function.
