The 'New Way Forward' Act



Garcia brags that the bill will break the “prison to deportation pipeline.” How does the bill do that? Under current U.S. law, legal U.S. immigrants can be deported if they commit an “aggravated felony” or a “crime of moral turpitude” – that is, a vile, depraved act, like molesting a child. Under the New Way Forward Act, “crimes of moral turpitude” are eliminated entirely as a justification for deportation. And the category of “aggravated felony” gets circumscribed too.

Donald Trump was “apoplectic” with Boris Johnson during a phone call to discuss the prime minister's decision to allow Chinese firm Huawei a role in Britain's 5G mobile phone network.

Citing unnamed officials in London and Washington, the Financial Times said the president was livid during the exchange last week after Mr Johnson's government said Huawei could have a limited role in building Britain's 5G mobile network despite warnings from the Trump administration.

Ha ha ha. Farage's got some explaining to do to his American chums. They were told that because UK would have Brexit that subsequently the U.S. would be able to dictate to the UK much more.

Huawei: Senior Tories want Huawei 'ruled out' of 5G plans

Senior Conservatives have written to Tory MPs to raise concerns about the government's decision to allow Huawei to play a role in the UK's 5G network.

In a letter, the group - which includes four ex-cabinet ministers - said there were alternatives to the Chinese firm.

They want "high-risk" vendors to be ruled out now, or phased out over time.

The letter comes as US vice-president Mike Pence said the US was "profoundly disappointed" with the UK's decision.

The letter from Sir Iain Duncan Smith, Owen Paterson, David Davis, Damian Green, Tobias Ellwood and Bob Seely, which has been seen by the BBC, says some MPs were "working to find a better solution".

"We are seeking to identify a means by which we ensure that only trusted vendors are allowed as primary contractors into our critical national infrastructure," it says.

"Trusted vendors would be companies from countries that have fair market competition, rule of law, respect human rights, data privacy and non-coercive government agencies."

I think shachalnur perhaps could have right idea when he talked of the two factions of rothschild and rockefeller now being rivals and how we're seeing it play out on the world stage. Boris Johnson's background, past and current actions and the circles he's in points towards him very much being part of the current UK establishment (rothschild). He has history of actually being rather fond of the EU, nevertheless he "reformed" himself to be one of the cheerleaders for Brexit and has now got the Brexit ball rolling, though the most important part of Brexit is still not completed as it remains to be seen how close a relationship he will go for when the trade negotiations start with the EU. In other words, it's possible he could opt for a Brexit in name only or weak Brexit scenario.

And who of these pro-US Tories(rockefeller), now trying to get him to change his stance on Huawei, would be able to stop him? Because when it comes down to it they would have an incredibly hard time ever finding a successful replacement for Boris. Every other conservative leader in the last 30 years has been unpopular from day one, neither do they have anyone in their ranks currently who could command the support of voters like Boris can. But at the same time the current US admin (rockefeller) and the select number of pro-US tories + Farage aren't going to let the Huawei issue rest - after all Brexit for them was never about "reclaiming sovereignty" instead it was all about making the UK's influence weaker and therefore making the UK easier to be exploited and pushed around by the US when it comes the big issues, Huawei being one of them.

If you're interested go to 18:30 in this video and see how Farage is so keen to convince his audience that the Huawei decision is bad, but he loses the argument miserably.




Anyway point being, I think the past three years of Brexit fiasco could prove to just be a warm up for the increased conflicts within the UK Tory party that comes next.
