Will Bill Clinton’s Perverted Baggage Ruin Hillary’s Presidential Run Hopes?

By Maureen Callahan. She hasn’t even announced, but the question has already resurfaced: Will Bill Clinton’s baggage derail Hillary Clinton’s presidential hopes?

Just a few weeks ago, reports broke that Bill Clinton had flown at least 11 times on “The Lolita Express” — a private plane owned by the mysterious financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. According to Virginia Roberts, who claims to have been one of Epstein’s many teenaged sex slaves, Clinton also visited Epstein’s private Caribbean retreat, known as “Orgy Island.”

“I remember asking Jeffrey, ‘What’s Bill Clinton doing here?’ ” Roberts said in 2011. The former president, she added, was accompanied by four young girls during his stay — two of whom were among Epstein’s regular sex partners. “And [Jeffrey] laughed it off and said, ‘Well, he owes me a favor.’ He never told me what favors they were.”

Clinton also spent years traveling and partying with Ron Burkle, a billionaire bachelor with a penchant for very young girls. Clinton spent so much time on Burkle’s private plane that it came to be known in Burkle’s circle as “Air F—k One.”

And that is to say nothing of Bill’s solicitation of mystery donors, the concerns about financial malfeasance at the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, Bill’s racially charged verbal gaffes during Hillary’s 2008 bid and the alleged longtime, serious mistress that diverted Hillary’s presidential campaign from larger problems.

Obama Bundlers Slow to Back Hillary Clinton Super PACS

By Fredreka Schouten and Christopher Schnaars. Only a tiny fraction of the fundraisers who helped President Obama secure a second term have made significant contributions to the committee backing a potential run by Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton, a USA TODAY analysis shows.

Of the 769 individuals and couples who raised money for Obama, just 54 people and firms have donated at least $5,000 to Ready for Hillary, the super PAC that has spent two years working to build grass-roots support for a Clinton campaign, according to the analysis.

South Carolina lawyer Richard Harpootlian collected more than $500,000 for Obama’s re-election, according to figures released by the president’s campaign. However, Harpootlian, a former two-time chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, is sitting on the sidelines in the early stages of the 2016 campaign. “I don’t know that she has generated any sort of enthusiasm or excitement,” he said of Clinton.

“In 2007, the Clinton campaign was more a corporate entity with layers and layers and layers of consultants — Clinton, Inc. — as opposed to a campaign,” Harpootlian said, referring to the early months of Clinton’s unsuccessful primary battle with Obama.

“I had hoped that this time around the Clinton campaign would be more agile. But there’s no real feeling that there’s a campaign. They are acting as if she’s the nominee, which is what happened in 2007 — and good golly — that went wrong.” (Read more from this story HERE)

Chris Kyle’s Killer’s Home was Full of Pot and Drugs to Treat Schizophrenia

By Washington Times. Authorities searching the home of the man suspected of killing “American Sniper” author Chris Kyle found marijuana, a nearly empty bottle of whiskey and a drug commonly used to treat schizophrenia.

A Texas Ranger testified Friday at Eddie Ray Routh’s murder trial that authorities found the items in the hours after the bodies of Kyle and his friend Chad Littlefield were found at a rural shooting range.

Routh’s attorneys have been pursuing an insanity defense, saying the ex-Marine was suffering from mental illness. The prosecution says Routh was numbed by marijuana and whiskey at the time of the shootings and should be held accountable. (Read more from this story HERE)

Strong Cannabis Use Causes One in Four Cases of Psychosis

By Daily Mail Reporter. As many as a quarter of new cases of psychotic mental illness can be blamed on super-strength strains of cannabis, scientists will warn this week.

The potent form of the drug – known as ‘skunk’ – is so powerful that users are three times more likely to have a psychotic episode than those who have never tried it.

The study, leaked to The Mail on Sunday, will reignite debate around Britain’s drug laws – and will add weight to calls for a tougher stance towards those caught dealing or in possession of cannabis.

According to Crime Survey figures for England and Wales, more than a million youngsters aged 16 to 24 smoke cannabis. (Read more from this story HERE)

As Obama Golfed, ISIS Slaughtered Egyptian Christians Held in Libya

CBS News reported that this past weekend, Obama was again playing golf, this time “at Porcupine Creek in Rancho Mirage. The owner is Oracle software company co-founder [billionaire] Larry Ellison.” In other words, Obama was screwing around on the golf course again while ISIS was creating mayhem across the Middle East.

As BBC reported:

A video has emerged showing the beheadings purportedly of 21 Egyptian Christians who had been kidnapped by Islamic State (IS) militants in Libya.

The footage shows a group wearing orange overalls, being forced to the ground and then decapitated. . .

The kidnapped Egyptian workers, all Coptic Christians, were seized in December and January from the coastal town of Sirte in eastern Libya, now under the control of Islamist groups.

The video of the beheadings was posted online by Libyan jihadists who pledge loyalty to IS. A caption made it clear the men were targeted because of their faith. . .

The beheadings were described as “barbaric” by al-Azhar, the highly regarded theological institution which is based in Egypt.

McCain on ISIS Fight: We Should Not Restrain the President

By Daniel Cooney. Senate Armed Services Chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., said Sunday that Congress should not restrict the president’s broad authority in authorizing the use of military force against the terrorist group known as ISIS.

“If we don’t like what the commander-in-chief is doing, we can cut off his funds for doing so. But to restrain him in our authorization of him taking military action, I think frankly, is unconstitutional,” McCain said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” He added that restraining the president’s authority to take military action “eventually leads to 535 commanders-in-chief,” referring to the total number of members of Congress.

McCain’s comments came after the president sent a draft of a new authorization of military force — or AUMF — to take action against ISIS. The draft stipulates a three-year authorization with no geographic limits and limited use of ground troops. The authorization would repeal the 2002 AUMF, which former Pres. George W. Bush used for the war in Iraq.

McCain, making his first appearance on “Meet the Press” since September 2013, said the president probably did not need the authority, but Congress should debate the issue. (Read more from this story HERE)

Miracle: Baby Survives Being Buried Alive

A newborn girl in China miraculously survived being buried alive after her parents thought she was stillborn. Lu Xiaoyun was having severe stomach pains at home when she called her husband, Mr. Ye, to tell him something was wrong. He rushed home to find his wife in pool of blood waiting for assistance.

Tragically, according to reports, once the ambulance arrived Mr. Ye mistakenly thought his daughter was dead and told emergency workers there was no point in taking their baby in to be examined. However, the couple did go to the hospital so that Ms. Lu could be checked out.

Upon arrival, doctors questioned the couple and encouraged them to have their baby properly examined to make sure she was dead. But while they were at the hospital, Ms. Lu’s mother buried the baby under a tree in their yard.

The couple was shocked but rushed into the yard to dig up their baby. Amazingly, they discovered she was still breathing and immediately left their farm and went to the hospital. At the hospital doctors established that Ms. Lu had given birth at six-months (24-weeks) pregnant, which is considered very premature. Ms. Ly and Mr. Ye also have a seven-year-old daughter.

It is truly remarkable that the couple’s baby survived because some babies at this age don’t survive even under the best of circumstances. In fact, even though 80% of babies born at 26-weeks survive the first year; chances of survival are significantly lower for younger babies. (Read more about the baby being buried alive HERE)

“A Message Signed With Blood to the Nation of the Cross”: US Condemns Another Horrific ISIS Video

By Hasani Gittens and M. Alex Johnson. The U.S. condemned the videotaped beheading of 21 Egyptian Christians kidnapped in Libya, explicitly blaming ISIS-affiliated terrorists Sunday for the “wanton killing of innocents.”

The Egyptians, dressed in orange jump suits, were beheaded after being forced down on the ground on a beach. An early caption in the video says the location is “Wilayat Tarabulus by the Mediterranean Sea,” which suggests that it was filmed near Tripoli.

Each of the victims, who are all male, is paired with a masked, knife-wielding terrorist and, after a brief statement by the ISIS leader, they are all beheaded.

The video is called “A Message signed with blood to the nation of the cross” and was released by the group’s Al-Hayat Media Center, according to Flashpoint Intelligence, a global security firm and NBC News consultant. (Read more about the horrific ISIS video HERE)

ISIS Seizes Iraqi Town 5 Miles From Marine Base

By Fox News. Islamic State has reportedly seized al-Baghdadi, in Iraq’s Anbar Province, 5 miles from an air base staffed by U.S. Marines, as the terror group continues its push beyond its bases in Syria and Iraq in an attempt to establish militant affiliates in other countries.

Hundreds of Islamic State fighters reportedly captured most of al-Baghdadi, which is 55 miles from the capital Ramadi, on Thursday.

On Friday, Iraqi soldiers had retaken several government buildings, but the soldiers withdrew early Saturday, handing the town back to the militants, The New York Times reported, citing local security officials.

One local Iraqi official told Reuters that, “Ninety percent of al-Baghdadi district has fallen under the control of the insurgents.”

Militants attacked the town of al-Baghdadi from two directions before advancing inward, Reuters reported. (Read more about the town ISIS seizes HERE)

Here’s What the Prime Minister of Israel is Urging European Jews to do [+video]

By Yahoo. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday urged European Jews to move to Israel after a Jewish man was killed in an attack outside Copenhagen’s main synagogue.

“Israel is your home. We are preparing and calling for the absorption of mass immigration from Europe,” Netanyahu said in a statement, repeating a similar call after attacks by jihadists in Paris last month when four Jews were among the dead.

Two police officers were also wounded in Sunday’s attack in Copenhagen, one of two fatal shootings in the normally peaceful Danish capital on the weekend.

In the first attack on Saturday, a 55-year-old man was killed at a panel discussion about Islam and free speech attended by a Swedish cartoonist behind controversial caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed.

“Extremist Islamic terrorism has struck Europe again… Jews have been murdered again on European soil only because they were Jews,” Netanyahu said in the statement. (Read more about the Prime Minister of Israel urging Jews to move to Israel HERE)

Latest Ad From Netanyahu Shows ISIS Asking for Directions to Jerusalem

By Daniel Harper. In the latest Likud ad for the upcoming Israeli elections, a group of ISIS terrorists (played by actors, of course) are seen asking for directions to Jerusalem. Likud is led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Elections there are a month away.

The ad shows the group of terrorists pulling up to a random Israeli to ask how to get to Jerusalem. “Take left,” they’re told.

The screen goes dark and Hebrew words appear as gun shots can be heard. “The left will surrender to terror,” the text on the screen reads. (Read more from this story HERE)

Until Islam is Held to the Same Standards as Other Religions, Terrorism Wins [+video]

By Fox News Insider. Lt. Col. Ralph Peters (Ret.) said on “Fox and Friends Weekend” this morning that President Obama’s inaction and lack of urgency in the fight against terrorism inspires aggression against the West.

“The only religion this president is willing to come out and publicly defend is Islam,” Peters said. “He clearly romanticizes Islam and treats it as if Islam is above all criticism.”

“We’ve got this problem where everybody on the left in the United States romanticizes Islam. They’re always scolding us, ‘Beware of Islamophobia, you can’t indulge in Islamophobia,'” Peters said.

Study: Quarter of Americans Say ISIL is True Islam

By Aamer Madhani. More than a quarter of Americans and nearly half of senior Protestant pastors say the Islamic State terrorist group offers a true representation of Islamic society, according to a pair of new surveys by LifeWay Research.

The findings that indicate many Americans have a dim outlook on Islam come as President Obama sent a formal request to Congress on Wednesday to authorize the use of military force to combat the Islamic State. Meanwhile, police in North Carolina tried to determine whether the shooting deaths of three Muslim students were hate-motivated.

Forty-five percent of 1,000 senior Protestant pastors surveyed say the Islamic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS, “gives a true indication of what an Islamic society looks like.” Forty-seven percent disagreed with the statement, according to LifeWay, a Nashville-based, non-profit Christian research group. LifeWay surveyed only clergy who identified themselves as the top pastoral officials in their organizations. (Read more from this story HERE)

[Page 2] Proof that American Democracy is Dead, the Oligarchs Rule

Compare King to would-be president Jeb Bush, a stronger advocate of pre-emptive surrender than Foxx:

I’d just add a little dose of reality. If you control one-half of one-third of leverage in Washington, D.C., your ability to influence things are [sic] also relative to the fact that you have one-half of one-third of the government … politically it’s quite dicey for the Republican Party.

Note the fear of “dicey” reality “for the Republican Party.” RINO reality is fear and appeasement.

Condescending lectures pretending to be “realistic” fail to note the critical distinction between enacting and blocking legislation. The Constitution was designed to impede the former and facilitate the latter. Blocking funds for Obama-Boehner Care does not require enacting anything. It simply requires refusal of 50.1% of “one half of one third of the federal government” to use its absolute power to refuse to appropriate money by law. RINOs live in fear (when not bullying professed conservatives who live in even greater fear). It tellingly illustrates this fear that the likes of Jeb Bush quake at hallucinations that the president or the senate could reject what a majority of voting representatives have not approved.

Disingenuous Rationalizations

Especially for House members, who have two-year terms, it is not enough to fool voters with false promises. The next step is to fool them about why — and even whether — promises were broken. Here are a few of the disingenuous explanations given by professed non-RINOs for voting to retain the worst RINO of them all.

· Displaying abysmal ignorance, Mia Love initially claimed, but later retracted, that a vote for a Republican other than Boehner would make Nancy Pelosi Speaker.

· Rep. Mulvaney’s statement had so many lies that an outraged Mark Levin easily smashed it to smithereens. Especially noteworthy is that, in implying that he had been fooled into voting against Boehner in 2013, this liar accused his colleagues of being liars. In 2013, he abstained.

· Many representatives claimed to be bound by November’s House Republican Conference vote for Boehner, and that there had not been a long campaign for an alternative. In fact, the conference was well before Boehner’s unanticipated deceitful and high-handed mid-December antics that so outraged conservatives weeks before the Speaker election. These antics included amnesty trickery and begging Obama for help in recruiting Democrat Cromnibus final passage votes.

· The claim that there was no viable alternative is belied by the fact that Boehner’s opponents only sought to block a majority, so that there would be a second vote. If it became clear that Boehner could not get a majority, Republicans would then have had another conference to select an alternative (True conservatives would take offense at the idea that Louie Gohmert was unacceptable).

Make no mistake about it. A major priority of the Republican majorities in the 114th Congress will be to con voters into believing that broken promises were kept or that failure to keep them was not their fault. (Go back to page 1 of “American Democracy is Dead” HERE)

Obama Admin. Stalled ISIS Rescue For American Hostages Causing Their Deaths [+video]

By Jamie Dettmer and Shane Harris. The U.S. government obtained intelligence on the possible location of American captives held by ISIS in Syria last year, but Obama administration officials waited nearly a month to launch a rescue mission because of concerns that the intelligence wasn’t conclusive and some of it had come from a foreign service, U.S. and British officials told The Daily Beast.

British officials, as well as private security contractors, said they were frustrated by Washington’s hesitance to give the go-ahead for a rescue attempt, which eventually was carried out on July 4, 2014, by which time the hostages had been moved. The following month, ISIS began beheading its American and British prisoners in a series of grisly Internet videos.

Toward the end of May, the British government had identified two or three locations in and around the Syrian city of Raqqa, the de facto capital of the so-called Islamic State, where the militants had moved hostages during the previous weeks and months. But the British were not absolutely sure in which location the Westerners were held. The captives included American journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff, as well aid worker Kayla Mueller. The information—based on debriefings of European captives who had been released, satellite and drone surveillance, and electronic eavesdropping—was not definitive in May.

Then, in early June, London had a “positive identification and that information was shared with Washington,” said a British source. The delay of nearly a month before the rescue bid was mounted remains a source of bewilderment for British officials. (Read more about the stalled ISIS rescue HERE)

ISIS Threatens Military Spouses on Twitter

By Michelle Hoffman. A group claiming to be affiliated with the ISIS militant group hacked the Military Spouses of Strength Twitter account Tuesday morning and sent threats to a group of military spouses on Twitter and Facebook.

The group called themselves the Gasper CyberCaliphate Sadz and claimed to be aligned with the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) pursuing a “Cyber Jihad.” Members of the group took over the Twitter account for Military Spouses of Strength, replaced the profile photo, and sent the threatening messages to the spouses using their full names.

The same cyber terrorism group, which said it’s associated with the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), hacked U.S. Central Command’s You Tube and Twitter accounts in January. Newsweek officials have also said the group hacked its Twitter feed on Tuesday.

The cyber terrorism group listed the military spouse’s full name on Twitter followed by the message: “You think you’re safe but the IS is already here, CyberCaliphate got into your PC and smartphone.” (Read more from this story HERE)

ISIS Disfigures Face of 15 Women With Acid

Photo Credit: Christian PostBy Samuel Smith. The Islamic State policing unit in Mosul severely disfigured the faces of 15 Iraqi women by pouring acid on them as a form of punishment after the women were caught without their faces being veiled appropriately, by ISIS standards, last weekend.

ISIS’ all-female policing unit, the Al Khansa brigade, which polices the streets of the group’s Syrian stronghold of Raqqa and Iraqi stronghold of Mosul, reportedly carried out the punishments after the women were detained on Sunday in the Mosul neighborhood of Salamiya, a kurdish official told BasNews.

The official from the Kurdistan Democratic Party in Mosul, Saed Mamuzini, told the news site that the women were subject to the cruel, face-deforming punishment simply because they were caught in public without wearing a Niqab, the cloth like veil that fully covers the face except for slit for the eyes.

ISIS Beheads 21 Christians on Beach Front

By Walid Shoebat. As a sequel to burning alive of the Jordanian POW pilot Moath All-Kasasseba, ISIS decided to behead 21 Christians on a beach front in Tripoli Libya as their magazine Dabiq said that its branch in Tripoli had captured randomly from an apartment complex after checking their identification cards which said “Coptic Christian” and then executed the 21 Christian Copts after being kidnapped late last year.

The undated photos showed the captive Coptic Christian workers wearing orange jumpsuits usually donned by Islamic State prisoners before they are executed by the jihadists.

ISIS as an excuse for the beheadings and the bombing of Our Lady of Deliverance Church in Baghdad which claimed the lives of dozens of Christians in Iraq at the time, saying that all this was “in revenge for the Camellia Shehata and Wafa Constantine and the other sisters tortured inside the Coptic church in Egypt”. The story was in reference to the two women, which erupted in much controversy in Egypt about unconfirmed reports the two had converted to Islam, and the intervention of the church at the time.
