Q Research General #23486: Celebrate Independence Day N Truth II Edition
The Associated Press kicked off the Independence Day celebrations on Tuesday with an article explaining why the word "patriot" has become problematic in recent years.
In the article, the outlet argued that the word had been overtly political and taken up by extremist groups, used in ways that made it less about love for the country and more about hatred for certain minority groups.
"The term 'patriot' in America has become infused in political rhetoric and school curriculums, with varying meanings, while also being appropriated by white nationalist groups," the outlet tweeted along with a link to the full piece.
"Today, the word and its variants have morphed beyond the original meaning. It has become infused in political rhetoric and school curriculums, with varying definitions, while being appropriated by white nationalist groups," the article alleged, using data from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center to support the idea that radical right-wing extremists had coopted the word. "Trying to define what a patriot is depends on who is being asked."
Citing the Capitol Riot on January 6th, 2021, Louisiana State University historian Gaines Foster said that extremist groups were beginning to focus on a more revolutionary meaning of the word, saying, "People began to lean less toward a commitment to democracy and more to the notion in the Declaration of Independence that there is a 'right of revolt,' and that becomes patriotism."
Critics were quick to point out that the timing of the article - if not the subject matter itself - was suspect.
"Just can't help themselves," Chad Felix Greene tweeted.
"AP can't even take a break from dividing Americans on Independence Day. Pathetic," another said.
"AP desperately tries to malign the word 'patriot' on #4thofJuly. Only thing it does is remind us how much they hate the U.S. #Patriots," Andy Martin responded.

CHICAGO SCANDAL: Andy Martin links Barack Obama to the growing "ShoreBank" scandal in Chicago
Andy Martin says $1 million Obama campaign contributor Goldman Sachs is trying to orchestrate a bailout of failed financial institution ShoreBank, which has close ties to Barack Obama's old neighborhood. Martin says the "Chicago fix" is in. Martin will be asking the Department of Justice for appointment of an independent counsel to investigate influence peddling and Chicago corruption in the ShoreBank scam. ShoreBank may have financial interests in-no surprise-Barack Obama's "home:" Kenya. Martin is demanding that the bank make full disclosure of all of its overseas interests and investments before any federal aid is approved. Martin says Chicago news media are covering up the ShoreBank scam out of fear of Obama retaliation. Internet Powerhouse Andy Martin says the ShoreBank bailout in Chicago is a growing Obama Administration/Clinton financial scandal. Martin says that ShoreBank investors are seeking a "disguised taxpayer bailout"

Paedophiles should forfeit superannuation to pay compensation, child sex abuse victim says
abc.net.au - 6 April 2022
Paedophiles would have their superannuation assets seized and used to pay for the ongoing care of abuse victims under a proposed legal reform endorsed by the survivor of a notorious child sex offender.
The proposal, put forward by independent federal Senate candidate Nick Xenophon, is intended to stop child sex offenders hiding assets in superannuation and then accessing them once they are released from prison.
Under current federal bankruptcy laws, there is no provision allowing perpetrators' super to be used for compensation and redress, Mr Xenophon said.
Andy Martin, who was abused between the ages of nine and 12 by notorious South Australian paedophile Peter Liddy, today expressed strong support for the proposed reform.
"Some circumstances need amending, and this is one - if a perpetrator is allowed to hide his assets or put his assets into superannuation, and not allow victims to obtain their compensation or their entitlements, that's just not on," he said.
"What's a legal system if it's not a justice system? This has to stop now."
Mr Xenophon estimated that there could be hundreds of millions of dollars locked away in superannuation accounts of convicted paedophiles across Australia, and said he was aware of one particular case in which "several million dollars" was unavailable to victims.
"Liddy is still incarcerated. Of course, he's a former magistrate, we imagine that he would potentially have significant superannuation left," he said.
"If you've committed this type of abhorrent offence, you shouldn't be able to live in luxury after you get out of prison.
"That money ought to go to the victims."
The proposal was mooted in broader form by the federal government in 2018 - but Mr Xenophon, who recently announced his intention to run for the Senate, said there had been little further progress.
The federal government has been contacted for comment.
Lawyer Andrew Carpenter said it was not simply the case that superannuation was unavailable to victims, but that paedophiles were deliberately taking steps to hide assets to ensure they were out of reach of victims.
"What we're seeing across the board is paedophiles burying their assets in superannuation," he said.
"They'll sell their house, put money into their lawyer's trust account and then cry poor, yet they've worked for the past 40 years in a cushy job and they're saying, 'I've got millions of dollars in super but you can't touch this.'
"There's no exceptions under the Bankruptcy Act and people know they can go to jail, sell everything and come out and live a comfortable life based on money they've had set aside."
Scheme would save taxpayers 'billions'
Mr Carpenter said superannuation companies "across the board" had expressed support for the reform, which he described as a "no-brainer".
"Taxpayers are funding, right now, victims of crime compensation applications, Medicare charges, Centrelink, doctors appointments - all because the survivors are needing this treatment and support to live a normal life whilst the offenders leave jail," he said.
"This is something that has cost the taxpayers billions of dollars over the years. It's about time that taxpayers stopped paying for the sins of paedophiles.
"If this law changes ... not only will you lose your liberty, you'll stand to lose everything you work for and that's the real deterrent here."
Lisa, a sister of another of Liddy's victims, said it was "abhorrent and contrary to any sense of justice" that sex offenders should enjoy comfortable lives upon their release, when their victims continued to suffer.
"We believe that Peter Liddy went out of his way to thwart his victims' claims, which added considerably to the boys' distress," she said.
"While no amount of compensation would be able to remove the horrific lifetime memories that the victims must endure ... the perpetrator should not be able to profit in any way.
"They should be made to do what they can to lessen the impact of their dreadful deeds by forfeiting every material thing for the benefit of their victims' ongoing rehabilitation and welfare."
