Turkish-backed syrian arabs who are coming from mostly the northwest part of syria who the turks actually removed from syria, took by bus presumably through turkey and are going to be bringing them back to syria. this allows them kind of a local cover pretext to repopulate the area, not just with militants from the free syrian army who like the kurds have been fighting isis and other elements for years and years. its going to allow them to kind of arab-ize the area. erdogan has described the kur...

Over governments. im not even joking. >> tucker: if trump were ever to get elected, not likely to happen she said, he would be impeached. to be clear, we are not alleging that evelyn farkas is part of a conspiracy. conspiracy suggest secrecy, and with farkas and what the national security state that was not secret, they all bragged about it. they all bragged about it from day one. yes, donald trump is vulgar, but thats nothing with why they hated him. they disagreed with trump profoundly and dis...
