Controversial Statement Disappeared from the Trump/Pence Campaign Website

Statement on controversial policy disappears from website shortly after election

In December 2015 Donald Trump suggested total ban on Muslim migrants

The promise has suddenly disappeared from the Trump/Pence website

Donald Trump's controversial plan for a total ban on Muslim immigrants may have been dropped already after the statement mysteriously vanished from his website.

The statement: 'Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on' had been on the site since December.

But hours after he was confirmed as the 45th U.S. President it suddenly disappeared.

Trump is due to visit Barack Obama at the White House today to discuss a 'smooth transition of power'.

The outgoing President traditionally updates the President-Elect on important foreign affairs issues and confidential matters of national security, aswell as handing out a few crumbs of advice.

Obama might be tempted to go further and urge Trump to drop a few more of his more left-field ideas, such as the wall along the southern border, paid for by the Mexicans themselves.

Khizr Khan, whose son, Humayun Khan was one of 14 American Muslims who died serving in the U.S. Army in the 10 years after the 9/11 attacks, took Donald Trump to task after he proposed a ban on Muslims entering the U.S.

Trump had said in the statement on his website: 'Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life.'

But it appears Trump may have now realized the total ban on Muslims - which had been criticized for being racist and xenophobic - was not practical.

It had also failed to recognize that some Islamic terrorists, like Omar Mateen, who killed 49 people at a gay nightclub in Florida in June, were themselves born in the United States and the ban would not have prevented their violent acts.

Among those who had spoken out against it was the Muslim Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan.

The total ban on Muslim immigrants has been dropped, but the plan for a Mexican wall remain

But the ban on Muslims had been popular with many Trump supporters, especially in the Midwest and in the Bible belt.

As the campaign progressed Trump had retreated from the ban, saying he wanted a ban on immigration from countries 'with connections to terrorism', rather than Muslims specifically.

But while that statement was probably targeted at refugees from Syria and Iraq, others argued that countries 'with connections to terrorism' could include France, Belgium and even Britain, as all have been 'infected' by Islamist terrorist cells.

Donald Trump says Bastian Schweinsteiger's wife Ana Ivanovic is the "most beautiful woman ever"

Quotes from three years ago have resurfaced following Trump's shock election as the 45th president of the United States of America

Newly-elected US president Donald Trump claimed that Bastian Schweinsteiger's wife Ana Ivanovic is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen.

Trump, 70, made the comment three years ago during a meeting with Ivica Dacic, who was the prime minister of Serbia at the time.

He said of Ivanovic: "She is the most beautiful woman I have seen in my life. Simply the most beautiful."
Trump was elected as the 45th president of the United States on Wednesday morning.

Ivanovic is married to United star Schweinsteiger

The Republican has never held a political post before and was in Serbia three years ago to discuss potential business investments in the country.
Dacic, who is now the Minister of Foreign Affairs, said: "For 15 minutes all he talked about was Ana Ivanovic and how she was the most beautiful tennis player and woman in the world."
Ivanovic, 29, who is married to Manchester United midfielder Schweinsteiger, 32, met Trump in 2014 and posed for a photo with him.

She posted on social media: "Meeting with the boss".
Local journalists asked Dacic why Trump had such a positive attitude about Serbia and he replied: "Ana is the one to take credit, he is fascinated with her beauty."
The quotes have since been republished in Serbia following the election results.

PROPHETESS BABA VANGA, HER PREDICTIONS ON US 44TH & 45TH PRESIDENT, AND MORE

Blind Bulgarian clairvoyant who predicted 9/11 and Islamic State's rise to power, warned Barack Obama will be the 'last US president'

Baba Vanga made the predictions before she died in 1996 at the age of 85
Pensioner warned that Barack Obama would be the 'last US president'
Donald Trump will not be sworn in as US president until January 20
Also credited with predicting 2004 tsunami and attacks on Twin Towers

Baba Vanga (pictured) predicted before she died that the 44th President would be African-American, but that he would be the 'last US president'

The blind psychic who predicted 9/11 and the rise of Islamic State has also forecast that Barack Obama would be the 'last US president'.

Baba Vanga, who was known as the 'Nostradamus from the Balkans', predicted correctly that the 44th President would be African-American.

But it's unclear what the Bulgarian-born Prophet - who died in 1996 aged 85, and who had an alleged prediction success rate of 85 per cent – meant when she said Obama would also be the last, Prophecies reports.

Obama technically remains president until Donald Trump is sworn in on January 20, 2017.

Baba Vanga prophesied that the 44th US president would be black and he would be 'the last one'. She went on, saying that at the time of his stepping into office, there would be a spectacular economic crisis.

'Everyone will put their hopes in him to end it, but the opposite will happen; he will bring the country down and conflicts between north and south states will escalate,' she said.

However, she also spoke of a Messianic personality, but left few clues to help recognise this 'peacemaker' who in her words 'will sign the lasting peace'.

Vanga is said to have made hundreds of predictions in her lifetime, including that there would be a 'great Muslim war' which would start with the Arab Spring in 2010.

She predicted it would take place in Syria and would come to a conclusion in 2043 with the establishment of a caliphate with Rome at its centre.

Vanga reportedly said Europe will 'cease to exist' by the end of next year, leaving the continent 'almost empty' and a 'wasteland almost entirely devoid of any form of life'.

The chilling prophecy has alerted conspiracy theorists who highlight ISIS activity close to Europe in Libya.

Vanga's followers say she predicted the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami by foreseeing a 'huge wave' which would 'cover a big coast covered with people and towns, and everything will disappear beneath the water.'

In 1989 the mystic is said to have made reference to the 9/11 terror attacks on New York by claiming 'American brethren' would be attacked by 'two steel birds'.

Some suggest this was a reference to the two hijacked passenger jets that were flown in to the World Trade Center.

She is also alleged to have predicted the effects of climate change 60 years ago by warning that polar ice caps would melt and cause sea levels to rise.

Vanga was born in the village of Strumica at the foot of a mountain range in what was the Ottoman Empire.

She is believed to have lost her eyesight during storm when she was picked up in a fierce gust of wind and dumped back down on the ground.

Vanga later claimed she had the ability to look into the future and quickly developed a 'cult' following.

In later years, she became trusted by the rich and famous with even heads of state and powerful politicians from around the world seeking her opinions.

In the 1950s Vanga reportedly predicted how 'a huge wave will cover a big coast covered with people and towns, and everything will disappear beneath the water'.

She also warned of the effects of climate change by suggesting 'cold regions will become warm... and volcanoes will awaken.'

'Everything will melt, just like ice,' she added.

In 1989, she is said to have made reference to the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center.

She added that 'innocent blood will gush.'

The pensioner once predicted that the 44th US president would be African American - but she also warned that he would be the 'last US president'.

LOOKING IN TO THE FUTURE

Vanga made predictions for the next few centuries before she died. Highlights include her warnings that aliens will help civilisations live underwater by 2130 and that there will be a war on Mars in 3005.

In another apocalyptic message, she said everything on earth will die by 3797 - but that by this stage humans should be capable of moving to a new star system.

EFCC Finds N2.5B In Former Aviation Minister Stella Oduah’s Housemaid’s Account..

Agents of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have discovered the sum of N2.5 billion in a bank account opened in the name of a housemaid to former Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah, who is now a senator representing Anambra State in the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Two senior EFCC sources told our correspondent that the bank account and its huge deposits had been opened and operated without the knowledge of the former minister’s housemaid. “Senator Oduah apparently opened the account with her housemaid’s name, image, and details without the housemaid knowing about it,” said one EFCC agent familiar with the scandal.

Another EFCC source told SaharaReporters that Ms. Oduah had been going around to some top officials of the Muhammadu Buhari administration seeking their help to scuttle her impending trial. Last week, she asked for a meeting with EFCC chairman Ibrahim Magu, claiming she wanted to meet in her official capacity as a senator.

The two EFCC sources who briefed our correspondent on the “housemaid” account disclosed that Ms. Oduah was the sole signatory to the account, adding that they were still connecting the dots to uncover how the ex-Aviation Minister managed to pull off such a money laundering operation.

“As of last week, the account was still active and contained over N2.5 billion,” said one EFCC source. He added that he could not ascertain whether the EFCC chairman, who is currently traveling in Saudi Arabia for lesser hajj, had ordered the freezing of the account.

One of our EFCC sources revealed that the discovery of the “maid” account meant that the former minister must have stolen as much as N5.6 billion so far from the Aviation Ministry’s funds during her ministerial term.

SaharaReporters had revealed in earlier reports that EFCC investigators had so far determined that Ms. Oduah split N3.6 billion that she acquired illegally among eight companies.

In August 2015, Ms. Oduah filed an application at a Federal High Court to stop the EFCC from investigating allegations that she bought two ostensibly bulletproof BMW cars at $1.6 million, or $800,000 apiece. A controversial judge, Justice Mohammed Yunusa, initially granted the order sought by Senator Oduah. However, in February 2016, after Justice Yunusa was transferred out of Lagos, another federal high court judge vacated the order, permitting the EFCC to carry on with its investigation.

SaharaReporters had broken the report about the BMW scam during Ms. Oduah’s ministerial tenure. Several BMW dealers in Europe and North America told our reporters that what the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) paid for the two BMW cars far exceeded the price ranges for such bulletproof automobiles.

Ms. Oduah is a close ally of embattled Senate President Bukola Saraki, who is the defendant in two criminal trials in Abuja pertaining to forgery and false declaration of assets.

Innocent Baby Crushed to death over N150 change... Mother badly injured.

A nursing mother was seriously injured and her baby crushed to death on Wednesday, June 15, after they were struck by a commercial bus along Makurdi-Gboko expressway, Benue over N150 change.

According to the child's father, Senator Anuum, his wife had boarded the vehicle with their baby strapped to her back, from the second gate of the Benue State University (BSU) to Coca-Cola junction. When she got to her destination, she gave the bus conductor a N200 note. She was supposed to be given a balance of N150 but the conductor refused.

"The mother and her child, who she carried at her back, were the remaining passengers in the bus. The conductor did not want to give her the change and they drove off, in the process she grabbed the conductor that was already on the moving vehicle, with her baby at the back and she lost balance, fell down and was dragged on the road till the baby fell off from her back, in between the back wheels and was smashed, died instantly and the driver and the conductor drove off," Anuum narrated.

The matter has been reported to security agencies but efforts to contact the police public relations officer, ASP Moses Yamu failed. However, a police source said investigation is ongoing to fish out both driver and conductor.

River “Turns To Dryland” At Kara Market, Ojodu Berger.

Ogun River “Turns To Dryland” At Kara Market

A part of the popular Ogun River which flows under the Kara Bridge around Ojodu Berger area of Lagos State has suddenly gone dry.

Unidentified green plants are seen on the river while the water body has given way.

The Kara cattle market community under the bridge along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway has become a Mecca of some sort with residents of the community and passers-by trooping to see the dried section of the river which once provided water for the Kara cattle and ram market.

Traffic in bound Lagos slowed down and Road Safety officials tried to make light the gridlock.

Before the unusual incident, the water body once served as means of transportation for canoe owners but residents say they woke up to see the channel blocked on Saturday morning.

Surprisingly, on the other side of the Kara Bridge, the river was seen flowing freely.

Environmentalists have, however, warned that residents keep off the blocked channel for the risks of it opening up unexpectedly and advised relevant authorities find a means of clearing the plants.
