In a recent Daily Caller interview, U.S. Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas called the Clinton Foundation "one of the largest money laundering and influence peddling operations in the world." Even as scandal after scandal associated with what should be called the "Clinton Crime Family Foundation" flood the American media landscape, one courageous Polish leader explained how male, fighting-age refugees from Syria are flooding Europe: a virtual refu-jihad.

The same Polish leader expressed hope that President Donald Trump will soon provide real leadership for both America and for Western Civilization.

In a private meeting last month in Washington D.C., European Parliament Vice-President Ryszard Czarnecki passed on this prescient three-part personal advice for Donald Trump:

First, we need U.S. leadership in the world, real leadership, because the lack of real U.S. leadership is dangerous for the world — and an invitation for the enemies of freedom and Western Civilization.

Second, we hope the new U.S. President will not "lead from behind" in the Middle East Region, because the ineffective intervention by Washington in the Middle East Region over the past few years has been the cause of the current invasion of refugees in Europe.

Third, we hope that the U.S. President never again criticizes the internal politics of an allied nation, as President Obama did at the recent NATO Summit in Warsaw, Poland (see "Remarks by President Obama and President Duda of Poland After Bilateral Meeting," July 8, 2016), and as former President Bill Clinton did recently in connection with Poland and Hungary, "claiming the countries' rejection of mass Muslim migration means they reject democracy and want 'Putin-like dictatorships.'"

Vice-President Czarnecki’s descriptions of the ongoing "invasion of refugees" in Europe and the "enemies of freedom and Western Civilization" hearken back to the first Polish Pope, now Saint John Paul the Great, who proclaimed this to all Americans from a packed baseball stadium in Baltimore, Maryland, in his October 8, 1995, "Homily at Camden Yard:" "Surely it is important for America that the moral truths which make freedom possible should be passed on to each new generation. Every generation of Americans needs to know that freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought."

Thank God for the courageous leadership of these two Polish leaders, European Parliament Vice-President Ryszard Czarnecki and the late great Pope John Paul II, now Saint John Paul the Great. Like-minded American voters of all ethnic backgrounds and religious persuasions should choose hope over Clinton fatigue, and elect Donald Trump as the next President of the United States.
