German Chancellor Angela Merkel will be awarded the Four Freedom’s Medal this coming April. According to the Netherlands-based Roosevelt Foundation, the award is given to: “…men and women whose achievements have demonstrated a commitment to those principles which President Roosevelt proclaimed in his historic speech to Congress on January 6, 1941, as essential to democracy: freedom of speech and expression, freedom of worship, freedom from want, freedom from fear.” Hmmmm. Let’s go to the video tape. Freedom of speech? Does Ms. Merkel foster freedom of speech? As I understand it, anything classified as “hate speech” is prosecutable. Just how broad is this term? Would it cover this channel’s content. Certainly not by my definition, but one can certainly fear overly broad interpretations may apply to punish political enemies – hardly free speech. Freedom of expression? Hmmmm, If the timidity of the German press to honestly report the true repercussions of the migrant Muslim invasion, then it seems that the German media’s freedom of expression is severely compromised under Ms. Merkel. Freedom of worship? Don’t know about this one. Freedom from want? I’m not sure how well socialism is working at the edges of German society, but I know that under Obama here in the USA, our military veterans complain that illegal immigrants are more generously provided for then our veterans. Freedom from fear? Now this is a big one. If you are German and watching this report, please go to the comments section and report to the rest of us whether you feel more or less fearful since the immigrant invasion of 2015 began? And lastly, on Democracy. The EU – Merkel’s baby – is the greatest weapon since Hitler against democracy. It destroys what’s known as the social contract, where people feel connected to governmental decisions – where their vote counts – where they can influence legislation. Did Greece get the benefit of freedom when it could have easily escaped the debt money system last year? Nay, Nay, the Greeks must pay and pay – for all eter-nit-ay. No, Ms. Merkel’s New World Order is a huge step away from governance of the people, by the people and for the people. That’s the real meaning of democracy. Sovereign nation states are the absolute bedrock of world freedom, and poison to Merkel’s open-border, New World Order featuring long-distance –non-democratic governance. And I’ll debate anyone on this point. No, what’s happening here is the immigration debacle is just bearing its first horrible fruits. Much more will come. The Universal Socialist collective is desperate to try to paper over the cancerous eruptions with shiny gold-medal awards. I will bet that come October, Ms. Merkel will be adding another one - the now worthless Obama Award from Stockholm – the Nobel Peace Prize. The question is, will the hard working German people buy these false trappings of power, or will they believe the evidence of deep-rooted social convulsions before their lying eyes? I’m still reporting from Washington. Good day.

It looks like the Donald Trump of Britain - Nigel Farage - may get another shot at a seat in the British Parliament. A possible re-votemay be ordered due to apparent election fraud on the part of the national offices of the conservative Tory party which engineered Farage’s defeat a year ago. A British judge has given police investigators more time to investigate whether conservative Tories had exceeded spending limits in their headlong zeal to defeat the outspoken Brexit advocate in his bid to win a seat in the British Parliament. Each constituency in Britain is limited to spending no more than approximately 15,000 British pounds per parliamentary election – a bit over $21,000. That’s a little more than one-percent of the amount a member of the U.S. Congress spends on an election. However, a joint investigation by British Channel 4 News and the “Daily Mail” newspaper found the cost of dozens of hotel rooms were charged improperly to the national Tory party’s office, instead of the spending returns of the eventual Tory winner of the seat, Craig Mackinlay. The hotel rooms were used by Tory officials, consultants and activists sent into Farage’s constituency to engineer his defeat last May. As a result, District Judge Justin Barron ruled against Tory attempts to block the investigation, saying the case was: "… wholly exceptional [with a] very significant public interest in the matter being fully investigated." "The consequences of a conviction would be of a local and national significance with the potential for election results being declared void." I’m still reporting from Washington. Good day.
