Trump Is The Anti-Obama When It Comes To Standing Up To Terrorist-Supporting Iran | Stock News & Stock Market Analysis - IBD:
"Green Revolution: Average Iranians have once again taken to the streets to protest the brutal, incompetent dictatorship of the fundamentalist mullahs that rule the country.
We can only hope these demonstrations turn out better than they did in 2009.
The so-called "Green Movement," also known as the "Persian Spring," brought people into the streets of Tehran, Qom and other major Iranian cities in the summer of 2009, protesting at first the regime's fraudulent election and corrupt management of the economy, which had brought inflation, unemployment and shortages to a country that should be one of the world's wealthiest.
The U.S. government and the liberal media were mute as Iran brutally crushed the Green Revolution.
Unfortunately, the Iranian demonstrators who poured into the streets mistakenly thought the U.S. and its new slick-talking leader would stand up for them.
But even as at least 30 people were murdered by the government and untold hundreds of others were imprisoned and tortured, President Obama and his former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton shut their mouths and sat on their hands.
...Because Trump's policy, unlike Obama's, openly supports the people risking their lives on the streets who are fed up with their nation's misrule..."

The Never-Ending Mueller Witch Hunt: An Affront to the Constitution
The Never-Ending Mueller Witch Hunt: An Affront to the Constitution:
"The most plausible reason for an endless witch hunt against President Trump and his circle is to cover the various abuses of power that have been credibly alleged against the last administration and the Department of Justice itself. Since Robert Mueller was head of the FBI himself from 2001 to 2013, and since we now know that fired Director Comey and Mueller met in a private meeting before Comey called for a special counsel against Trump, the whole farcical process is now tainted beyond redemption.
If the Mueller witch hunt is a campaign to cover up crimes and misdeeds by the Obama administration, by the DOJ, and by the Hillary campaign, we need a federal grand jury – but without any tainted prosecutors – to examine Mueller, Comey, Brennan, and Hillary and Huma and Mills, as well as DOJ officials who allowed Huma to walk out of the State Department with relevant paperwork only months ago. Contrary to previous procedures, these individuals should be put under oath to tell the truth."
