A few years ago some people were saying Barack Obama was not born in the USA.
The Factor investigated and found birth announcements in both Honolulu newspapers.
It would have been impossible for anyone to forge that.
Thus, it is clear to us that the president was born here.
The allegation that he was not is a big lie.
However, that lie is insignificant. It has no effect on anyone's life.
But today there are big lies that directly affect every American.
Case number one: the Supervisors in San Francisco refusing to cooperate with federal law on foreign felons who defy deportation.
That killed 32-year-old Kate Steinle.
DAVID CAMPOS (D), SAN FRANCISCO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS: “What happened in the Steinle family case is tragic. But what's equally tragic is that this tragic incident is being used by people like Donald Trump, Bill O'Reilly, and others to scapegoat an entire community.”
That's a complete lie. We have never scape-goated anyone.
In fact in 2014, Talking Points laid out a very fair and effective immigration reform plan.
You can check it out on BillOReilly.com.
So David Campos does not tell the truth, but even worse than that he and his peers are anarchists. They are refusing to comply with federal law putting innocent people in danger.
If I were the attorney general I would have Campos and his cohorts arrested and charged with obstruction of justice.
Case number two: President Obama believes the American justice system is biased against African-Americans, therefore some convicts should be released from prison because their sentences were too harsh.
In the meantime violent crime in the USA is rising -- homicides in 35 large cities up about 20% so far this year.
President Obama apparently thinks that heavyweight hard drug dealers are non-violent.
A huge lie.
Every law enforcement agent in the country knows the street drug trafficking industry is brutal, and there are few minor offenders in federal prison.
For example, fewer than one percent of drug convicts have been convicted of simple drug possession.
And how about the racial aspect that is driving the insane sympathy for dope dealers?
Well Hispanics make up 48% of all drug offenders in federal prison, blacks 27% … whites 22%.
So another big lie is saying the government is targeting blacks in drug cases.
Case number three: last week New York City Police Officer Randolph Holder was shot dead by a long-time drug dealer that a judge refused to incarcerate instead ordering the man to rehab.
This person, Tyrone Howard, had 28 arrests on his sheet but again, the judge would not put him in prison.
Thus Officer Holder is dead.
Less than a week after the officer was killed and before his funeral even took place, Hollywood director Quentin Tarantino traveled to New York City to condemn American police.
QUENTIN TARANTINO, MOVIE DIRECTOR: “Michael Brown, Junior.”
CROWD: “Michael Brown, Junior!”
TARANTINO: “An 18-year-old black teenager - Ferguson, Missouri. On August 9, 2014 Michael was walking to his grandmother’s house with a friend when he was stopped and harassed by Darren Wilson, a Ferguson cop. After being shot once, Michael tried to run away. He was shot a total of 6 times including twice in the head.”
As you may remember, a grand jury saw this case completely differently.
They exonerated Officer Wilson, as testimony clearly demonstrated Michael Brown attacked the officer violently.
But to Tarantino, who lives in a world of his own, facts don't matter. He has no problem spreading big lies.
All of this has demoralized many American police officers, and violent crime is rising as we reported.
The entire situation has gotten the attention of FBI Director James Comey:
JAMES COMEY, FBI DIRECTOR: “I spoke to officers privately in one big city precinct who described being surrounded by young people with mobile phones held high, taunting them when they get out of their cars. They said to me, ‘We feel under siege and we don’t feel much like getting out of our cars.’”
So the big lies now being spread by the far left are having a direct effect on life in America.
And here's another disgraceful fact: Many in the media who are mandated to report the truth actually knowingly spread the lies.
And that's the memo.
