Feds Emboldened After Killing Finicum, Now Rounding Up, Jailing 2014 Nevada Protesters

/10 Comments/in , , /by

In a surprising turn of events, several of Cliven Bundy’s supporters during his 2014 faceoff with federal law enforcement may soon face criminal complaints of their own. Cliven Bundy was arrested this week on a federal complaint arising from his armed interactions with the feds at his ranch in 2014. In the complaint, the government filed six different charges against Bundy and listed four unnamed co-conspirators. The complaint also describes many others who allegedly aided and abetted Cliven Bundy but doesn’t name them.

In a special radio report, the president of Oath Keepers, Stewart Rhodes, discussed with retired Sheriff Denny Peyman and Forward Observer editor Sam Culper the likelihood that dozens of Cliven Bundy’s supporters may also be under indictment and face arrest warrants. They observed that the federal complaint against Cliven Bundy is broad enough many of those who traveled to Nevada to support Bundy in 2014 could very well be arrested on similar charges.

The Patriot Report’s Jason Van Tatenhove claims that he’s identified as many as 68 Bundy supporters who may have federal warrants out for their arrest. Supporting his theory, at least one Bundy supporter has been arrested for what appears to be very minor actions. Specifically, Blaine Cooper was arrested and is now facing a charge of “conspiracy to impede officers of the United States.” This charge is very similar to Cliven Bundy’s and others.

All this comes on the heels of the revelation this week that Cliven Bundy’s son, Ammon, has been held in a tiny cell, in virtual round-the-clock solitary confinement, since his arrest until recently. This incredibly punitive treatment by the feds against a man who has only been charged with conspiracy and poses no danger to others (or himself) is incredibly disturbing.

Perhaps more disturbing is the fact that the federal government would pursue arrests and long prison terms for people who are trying to protect their land from the feds and simply wish to restore the rule of law and the Constitution to their rightful place.

Watch: Undercover Journalists Reveal Rampant Vote Fraud in US Primary

/7 Comments/in , /by

The 2016 United States presidential primary started with last week’s caucuses in Iowa, and has continued this week in New Hampshire–but not without controversy.

As Western Journalism reported, much controversy exists over the caucus results from Iowa. And now, more controversy is emerging from the Granite State.

Undercover journalists from Project Veritas Action, armed with hidden video cameras, captured state election officials, campaign officials, and campaign workers in what one could say borders on voter fraud . . .

In another revealing conversation, Donna Waterman (a Bernie Sanders campaign staffer) confessed that even out-of-state campaign workers vote in the New Hampshire primary. “All of our paid canvassers have done it, It’s very, very, easy.” Continuing on, Waterman added: “I don’t know the legality of it. Perhaps it’s voter fraud.”

James O’Keefe, head of Project Veritas Action, then confronted a few of the individuals seen in the video; but mum was the reaction he received, even being told to leave at one point.

It appears, from the different answers to the residency questions, that no one interviewed really seemed to know how long one had to have been a resident of New Hampshire in order to vote; and no one seemed to know how long one had to stay in the state for their vote to have been valid. Likewise, no one appeared to be concerned with issues of voter identification. (Read more from “Watch: Undercover Journalists Reveal the Scary Truth About U.S. Elections” HERE)

At the Recent Debate, Hillary Was Asked 1 Simple Question That DESTROYED Her Credibility [+video]

/3 Comments/in , /by

By Randy DeSoto. Democrat candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders asked one pointed question, which he believes draws a substantial distinction between his candidacy and Hillary Clinton’s.

“Let’s not insult the intelligent of the American people. People aren’t dumb,” Sanders said. “Why in God’s name does Wall Street make huge campaign contributions? I guess just for the fun of it, they want to throw money around.”

Clinton’s reply? She said she supports the Dodd-Frank law, and the belief that no bank is too big to fail.

Sanders, who has made campaign finance reform a cornerstone of his candidacy, also hit Clinton for the large corporate donations to a Super PAC backing her run. The socialist said early on he decided he did not want a Super PAC to support his candidacy.

“We don’t represent Wall Street, we don’t represent the billionaire class, so it ends up I’m the only candidate up here of the many candidates who has no Super PAC,” Sanders said. (Read more from “At the Recent Debate, Hillary Was Asked 1 Simple Question That DESTROYED Her Credibility” HERE)

Hillary Clinton Sharpens Focus After Democratic Debate Tussles

By Jonathan Martin and Alan Rappeport. Hillary Clinton forcefully attacked Senator Bernie Sanders before a heavily black audience Friday, highlighting his criticism of President Obama, the Affordable Care Act and for what she suggested was a single-minded focus on economic fairness at the expense of racial justice.

One day after the two squared off at a debate that emphasized issues relating to race and gender, Mrs. Clinton made clear that she intends to run in this state’s primary by effectively seeking Mr. Obama’s third term — and claiming Mr. Sanders would be a threat to the first black president’s accomplishments.

“He has called the president weak, a disappointment. He tried to get some attention to attract a candidate to actually run against the president when he was running for re-election,” Mrs. Clinton told a gymnasium full of voters near the campus of a historically black college here.

It was a reprisal of her offensive at Thursday night’s debate, but she escalated her assault further, portraying Mr. Sanders as an impediment to the health care law so associated with Mr. Obama that, she noted, it bears his name.

Watch: Aaron MacLean Just Dropped a Truth Bomb on Liberals Who Support Islamic Immigration

/5 Comments/in , /by

Washington Free Beacon Managing Editor Aaron MacLean said on Friday that liberals lack the intellectual framework to understand the current sexual assault crisis happening in Europe.

MacLean told Dierdre Bolton on Fox Business Network’s Risk and Reward that people like actor George Clooney and German leader Angela Merkel can’t comprehend why Germany is experiencing so many sexual assaults in the wake of an influx of refugees from a very different culture.

“I really don’t think what the American people want here is a liberal movie star, George Clooney, lecturing them about loosening their border constraints right before he goes into a meeting with the Chancellor of Germany,” MacLean said.

“People have legitimate concerns about the refugee influx from Syria. The list is long: the threat of terrorism, the proportion of economic migrants among refugees. People feel like they’re losing control of their democracy. They don’t have a say in policy anymore and you couldn’t illustrate that sentiment any better than with a picture of Clooney and Merkel,” MacLean said.

Mark Levin Exposes the Fiction of Bernie Sanders’ Attacks on Wealth Creators

/2 Comments/in , /by

In hour two of the Mark Levin program tonight, Conservative Review Editor-in-Chief Mark Levin took Democratic candidate for President Bernie Sanders’ socialist ideology to task. Sanders rails against the “one-percent” who allegedly have stolen all their wealth from the lower classes through exploitation of workers. Levin exposes this Marxist idea as a fiction.

Listen:

Trade is not a zero-sum game. The wealthy are not rich because they steal from others but because they provide goods and services that people want. They create jobs. They improve people’s lives. And, Levin argues, Bernie Sanders would destroy all that.

Bernie Sanders wants to confiscate the wealth away from job creators and entrepreneurs in this country, but he cannot achieve his proposals under our constitutional system, Levin explained. Socialism is antithetical to the principles of the American Founding.

Conservatives must stand against it. (For more from the author of “Mark Levin Exposes the Fiction of Bernie Sanders’ Attacks on Wealth Creators” please click HERE)

Clinton Adjusts Pitch: I Can Be a Sanders, Just Better

/3 Comments/in , /by

Hillary Clinton wants you to know she’s a more realistic, more savvy version of Bernie Sanders.

She, too, wants to close corporate loopholes, make college and health care more affordable and get tough on Wall Street. Just as Sanders does, except she’d proceed more carefully and practically.

Same with Social Security, and income inequality. Me, too, she said. Just better.

Clinton’s challenge, though, was clear during Thursday’s debate. Sanders argues with a passion that appeals to voters disgusted with Washington inertia. Clinton reasons with fact-laced talking points and anecdotes about how things work. Sanders leans into the podium, his right index finger pointing at the viewer as he promises a radical new way of doing business. Clinton is more lawyerly, more measured, even, arguably, more presidential.

She spent much of the debate, the first since Sanders and his insurgent army crushed her in Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary, intent on providing a distinctive dash of reality. She tried to convince voters fed up with politics as usual that the difference between Sanders and her is largely one of temperament and resume.

Ted Cruz: ‘I’m Not Running to Be Pastor-In-Chief’ [+video]

/3 Comments/in , /by

By David Brody. In an exclusive interview with The Brody File down in South Carolina, GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz says his Christian faith guides his path but has a message for those who think his, “Jesus talk” is too much. “I’m not running to be ‘Pastor-In-Chief.’ It is not the calling of a political leader to deliver the salvation message. That is the calling of us as believers, it’s the calling of a pastor but it’s a different role to be a political leader.” However, Cruz is quick to point out that he is NOT ashamed of the Gospel. “I am a Christian and the Word says if you are ashamed of Jesus He will be ashamed of you. I don’t intend to have that conversation with my maker.”

Our interview took place Thursday afternoon in Spartanburg South Carolina. Cruz was in town to meet privately with pastors at an event sponsored by the American Renewal Project. Our CBN cameras were on hand for that meeting and you can check out The Brody File for clips from the meeting.

Cruz App Data Collection Helps Campaign Read Minds of Voters

By Michael Biesecker and Julie Bykowicz. Protecting the privacy of law-abiding citizens from the government is a pillar of Ted Cruz’s Republican presidential candidacy, but his campaign is testing the limits of siphoning personal data from supporters.

His “Cruz Crew” mobile app is designed to gather detailed information from its users’ phones — tracking their physical movements and mining the names and contact information for friends who might want nothing to do with his campaign.

That information and more is then fed into a vast database containing details about nearly every adult in the United States to build psychological profiles that target individual voters with uncanny accuracy. (Read more from “Cruz App Data Collection Helps Campaign Read Minds of Voters” HERE)

Sanders Advocates Path to Citizenship, Using Executive Orders ‘If Congress Doesn’t Do the Right Thing’ [+video]

/6 Comments/in , /by

Socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) says he mostly agrees with President Obama, except when it comes to his deportation policies.

“And I would not support those,” Sanders said at Thursday’s Democratic debate in Milwaukee. “Bottom line is a path towards citizenship for 11 million undocumented people. If Congress doesn’t do the right thing, we use the executive orders of the president” . . .

Hillary Clinton said she “strongly” supports the president’s executive actions. “I hope the Supreme Court upholds them,” she said. “I think there is constitutional and legal authority for the president to have done what he did.

“I am against the raids. I’m against the kind of inhumane treatment that is now being visited upon families, waking them up in the middle of the night, rounding them up. We should be deporting criminals, not hardworking immigrant families who do the very best they can and often are keeping economies going in many places in our country.

“I’m a strong supporter of comprehensive immigration reform,” Clinton continued. “Have been ever since I was in the Senate. I was one of the original sponsors of the DREAM Act. I voted for comprehensive immigration reform in 2007. Senator Sanders voted against it at that time.

Pentagon: North Korea Nuclear, Missile Threat Increasing

/1 Comment/in , /by

North Korea poses an increasing danger of using long-range missiles capable of striking the United States with nuclear warheads and is fielding new road-mobile and submarine-launched missiles, the Pentagon said in a report to Congress made public Friday.

The Pentagon is working with South Korea, Japan and other countries to counter “the continued and growing threat from North Korea, its nuclear and missile programs, and its proliferation of related technology,” the report said, adding that the U.S. provides “extended deterrence” through both nuclear and conventional forces . . .

“North Korea’s continued pursuit of nuclear technology and capabilities and development of intermediate- and long-range ballistic missile programs underscore the growing threat it poses to regional stability and U.S. national security,” the 30-page report states.

“North Korea’s pursuit of a submarine-launched ballistic missile capability also highlights the regime’s commitment to diversifying its missile force, strengthening the missile force’s survivability, and finding new ways to coerce its neighbors.”

North Korea’s submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) program was first disclosed by the Washington Free Beacon. In January, the first successful ejection test of the developmental SLBM was carried out. (Read more from “Pentagon: North Korea Nuclear, Missile Threat Increasing” HERE)

Cops Arrest Teen for Hack and Leak of DHS, FBI Data

/1 Comment/in , /by

A 16-year-old boy living in England has been arrested in connection with the recent hack of FBI and DHS data, as well as the personal email accounts of CIA director John Brennan and homeland security chief Jeh Johnson.

Fox has confirmed that British authorities have arrested the still- unnamed teen with help from the FBI and that they are looking for possible accomplices.

The alleged hacker had told Motherboard webzine that he had swiped the names, titles and contact information for 20,000 FBI employees and 9,000 Department of Homeland Security employees. He told Motherboard this was possible through a compromised Department of Justice email.

Authorities believe this is the same hacker who compromised the private email accounts of Brennan and Johnson in October, though officials say neither man used these accounts for government use. As for the agency data, reports indicate that the pilfered information amounted to an internal phone directory. (Read more from “Cops Arrest Teen for Hack and Leak of DHS, FBI Data” HERE)
