Child With Autism Gets to be a Police Officer for a Day

/1 Comment/in , /by

Photo Credit: WhoTVEli, 6, spends his days in a classroom at Irving Elementary in Indianola. Mom Amanda Bradley says, “He really likes school. He’s just kind of a fun techie 6-year-old.”

But, the kindergartner with autism, epilepsy and developmental delays has dreams of being a crime fighter. Bradley says, “He loves everything they do. He loves seeing the police car. At the grocery store, he likes being in the police cart.”

That’s where Senior Police Officer Chuck Guhl comes in. His mom asked the 37 year veteran of the Des Moines Police Department to just show Eli his car, but it turned into much more than that. She says, “I just thought this would be something real fun and boyish that he could do. It wasn’t a therapy appointment. I was just something Eli could do for Eli, and have a good time doing it.”

Eli got to spend about three hours riding around with Guhl while he was off duty, learning what it takes to be a police officer. Officer Guhl says, “We went up to the Police Academy, and I showed him around where all the officers train and took him out to the firearms range. And, he got to wear one of the helmets that the SWAT officers wear.” (Read more about the child getting to be a police officer for a day HERE)

Doctors Refused to Help Baby With Trisomy 18, She Almost Died But This Happened

/3 Comments/in , /by

You go to the doctor with a chronic headache and he suggests cutting off your head. The doctor assures you that this will put a permanent end to your headaches. Sounds crazy, but that is the same logic the medical community often uses with the biologically imperfect. Your baby has a heart condition, chromosomal abnormality, missing a limb, blind, or deaf? No problem, there is a final solution that will completely cure your child – death.

Over a year ago a new friend needed help. Her daughter was diagnosed with Trisomy 18 and struggling to survive. She went to the hospital with her infant and was told that her daughter was too small to receive any of the tests requested by her pediatrician. The doctors at the hospital were going to send her home, but instead her mother followed sound advice from another parent and transferred to a different hospital.

Once at the other hospital, the little girl was examined and immediately intubated because she had been struggling to breathe. It was determined that her jaw was too short and she needed surgery quickly. In fact, the infant had jaw distraction surgery just 2 days later which lengthened her jaw and opened up her airway so she could breathe.

The first hospital which also performed jaw distraction surgeries was sending this infant child with Trisomy 18 home knowing full well that the child would die without medical attention. Death was their cure, but thankfully with appropriate help this little girl is now almost a year and a half old and doing well.

The medical doctrine of biological superiority can be seen crystal clear in prenatal tests that search out the disabled for the primary purpose and devastating result of destroying them. Exactly how developments and innovations in the field of medicine are to be developed with various disabilities when the patients are routinely terminated is an awful dilemma.

Mitt Romney Makes Surprise Decision on 2016

/2 Comments/in , /by

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney will not make a third run for president, he told supporters on a Friday morning call, saying he believes it’s “best to give other leaders in the party the opportunity” to become the nominee.

Romney acknowledged during the call that he may not have been the strongest contender for the GOP in a general election, and said that was the primary motivation behind his decision.

“I feel that it is critical that America elect a conservative leader to become our next president. You know that I have wanted to be that president. But I do not want to make it more difficult for someone else to emerge who may have a better chance of becoming that president,” he said.

The 2012 GOP nominee said on the call that he’ll “do whatever I can” to help elect that person — and attempted to tamp down any further speculation over whether he’ll change his mind.

“That seems unlikely,” he said. “Accordingly, I’m not organizing a PAC or taking donations; I’m not hiring a campaign team.” (Read more from “Romney Makes Decision” HERE)

Obama Advisor John Podesta Paid by Shadowy Foreign Billionaire to Shut Down ANWR?

/10 Comments/in , /by

Photo Credit: The Daily Caller By Richard Pollock. In 2013, John Podesta was paid $87,000 by a shadowy foreign billionaire whose passion is preventing energy exploration on American land.

Just two years later, Podesta is a member of President Obama’s inner circle, and the driving force inside the White House to block 12 million acres of land in Alaska’s Artic National Wildlife Refuge from oil drilling.

The circumstances suggest Podesta may have run afoul of Obama’s highly-touted ethics pledge, which requires political appointees to disqualify themselves in matters relating to the interests of a former employer or client.

Podesta — who is preparing to leave the White House to take a top position with Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign — has largely avoided public scrutiny during his time as a White House Counselor.

But his work came into fuller view earlier this week when he emerged as one of the architects of the new White House policy that seeks to end any future drilling for oil on Alaska’s coastal plain. (Read more from “Podesta Paid to Shutdown ANWR?” HERE)

Obama Treats Journalists as ‘Enemies of the State’

By Sam Rolley. Former CBS reporter Sheryl Attkisson told senators on Thursday that a journalist’s job of “getting at the truth has never been more difficult” than it is under the Obama administration.

Testifying before the Senate confirmation hearing for Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch, Atkins said that the Obama Justice Department has potentially done “long-term damage to a supposedly free press” and urged Lynch to enact policy changes to end the DOJ’s abuse of journalists.

“Facets of federal government have isolated themselves from the public they serve. They covet and withhold public information that we as citizens own. They bully and threaten access of journalists who do their jobs, news organizations that publish stories they don’t like and whistleblowers who dare to tell the truth,” Attkisson said.

Obama’s Extremist Attorney General Nominee Says Illegal Aliens Have the Right to Work in the U.S.

/8 Comments/in , /by

Photo Credit: BreitbartOn Thursday, Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) announced that he would vote against the nomination of Loretta Lynch for attorney general based on her statement that she supported President Obama’s executive amnesty.

Sessions explained:

Unfortunately, when asked today whether she found the President’s actions to be ‘legal and constitutional,’ Ms. Lynch said that she did. I therefore am unable to support her nomination. My concerns are furthered by Ms. Lynch’s unambiguous declaration that ‘the right and the obligation to work is one that’s shared by everyone in this country regardless of how they came here.’

Unfortunately, many other Republicans did not share Sessions’ sentiments, tossing softball questions at Lynch throughout her confirmation hearing. Nonetheless, Lynch demurred from answering over and over again, abiding by the new rule that nominees must avoid giving honest answers lest they be held accountable for those answers.

For example, when queried about the legal difference between the case for same-sex marriage and the case for polygamy by Senator Lindsey Graham, Lynch simply refused to answer. “Senator,” she said, “I have not been involved in the argument or the analysis of the cases that have gone before the Supreme Court. So I’m not comfortable undertaking legal analysis without having had the ability to undertake a review of the relevant facts and the precedent there. So I certainly would not be able to provide you with that analysis at this point, but I look forward to continuing the discussions with you.” Right.

Obama Just Picked a Massive Fight With Border Agents

/6 Comments/in , /by

The Obama administration is starting to implement its executive actions on immigration from November 2014 — and its early guidelines just set up a fight with enforcement agents who are already ticked off at the White House.

Applications for the new “deferred action” program aren’t expected to open up until spring. But federal immigration agents are already being told to consider whether immigrants in their custody might qualify for the new program — and not to deport them if they might.

The new guidance that Customs and Border Protection and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers are receiving was reported by Breitbart Texas a few weeks ago, after receiving leaked documents from a Customs and Border Protection agent. (The Associated Press reported on a similar set of guidelines on Wednesday.) The leaks make it clear that the agents themselves are extremely unhappy that they’re being told not to deport immigrants who they know are unauthorized — and in fact, if anything, are being told to help them. Immigration agents have long distrusted the Obama administration’s commitment to enforcing immigration law aggressively. That relationship is about to get a whole lot rockier.

The fact that the White House is already in a fight with agents before anyone has even gotten the chance to apply for the new program is a big deal for both the political fight over the executive actions, and the policy battle over their implementation. The resistance of federal immigration agents was one big reason that the Obama administration’s first attempt to protect some unauthorized immigrants, in 2010 and 2011, didn’t work — and will make it much harder for the government to roll out the new program. On the political front, agents — and in particular their unions — have become an unlikely ally of the congressional Republicans leading the political attacks against the administration’s program. As a theoretical legal argument over the basic constitutionality of the president’s actions grows into an argument about how they’re being implemented, agents are going to play a key role.

Sick: ‘Sex Slave’ Claims Bill Clinton Visited Epstein’s ‘Orgy Island’; CNN Ignores Clinton Involvement

/20 Comments/in , /by

Photo Credit: News BustersBy Lia Eustachewich. Former President Bill Clinton took a romantic jaunt in 2002 to convicted pedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein’s “orgy island” with “two young girls” from New York, according to a shocking new interview.

Virginia Roberts, who’s accused Epstein of turning her into a “sex slave” at age 17 and forcing her to sleep with his powerful friends, claimed Clinton stayed in one of the many villas on Epstein’s US Virgin Islands estate — where group sex was a “regular occurrence.”

“I remember asking Jeffrey, ‘What’s Bill Clinton doing here?’ kind of thing, and he laughed it off and said, ‘Well, he owes me a favor,’ ” Roberts told her lawyers in a 2011 interview obtained by RadarOnline.com. “He never told me what favors they were.”

Bubba was accompanied by two of Epstein’s regular girlfriends and “two young girls that I could identify,” Roberts claimed.

“I never really knew them well anyways. It was just two girls from New York,” she said. (Read more about how Robert’s claims Bill Clinton visited Epstein’s Island HERE)

CNN Refuses to Mention Bill Clinton in Jeffrey Epstein Underage Sex Scandal

By P.J. Gladnick. Pay no attention to the president behind the curtain. Instead we want you to focus entirely upon an utterly powerless prince that we are shining the bright lights upon. Despite the fact that other news outlets are bringing up the name of a certain former president we want you to look only at Prince Andrew of Great Britain. Got that? And if you haven’t then we will overwhelm you with Prince Andrew mentions whenever we report on the Sex Fiend Island scandal.

Such seems to be the attitude of CNN. Although other news outlets, such as Time, have not refrained from noting the allegations about Bill Clinton, CNN remains resolutely mum about mentioning you know who. Here is the first of the Sex Fiend Island stories published at CNN.Com on Thursday which studiously avoids any reference to the one whose name must remain taboo:

In his first public remarks since being accused of having sex with an underage American woman, Britain Prince Andrews briefly addressed the allegation before a crowd in Davos, Switzerland.

…Earlier this month, Buckingham Palace issued a statement which said, “It is emphatically denied that the Duke of York [Andrew] had any form of sexual contact or relationship” with the woman. “Any claim to the contrary is false and without foundation.”

Andrew is a son of Queen Elizabeth II and a brother of Prince Charles, the next in line for the British throne.

The prince is accused of having sex with the woman when she was 17, details of which are is a sworn affidavit in Florida court dated January 19. The woman said that she and the Prince had sex “three times, including one orgy.”

Boko Haram, Hamas Training Thousands of Children Terrorists

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Jordan Schachtel. Photos have emerged on social media purportedly showing a Boko Haram-held child soldier indoctrination/training camp. The pictures in question, posted on a Boko Haram-supporting Twitter page, show young children in formation and aiming AK-47 rifles.

The U.S. State Department’s Think Again Turn Away Twitter page re-posted the photo, seemingly verifying its authenticity.

Meanwhile, some 1.5 million Nigerians have become displaced due to Boko Haram’s Caliphate-seeking drive through the country, reports The Guardian. And the situation has only gotten worse with the jihadist group ramping up its terror campaign before the upcoming February 14 elections. Some have worried that three of Nigeria’s northeastern states, which are currently under a President-declared state of emergency, may not be able to provide a safe environment to hold elections.

10,000 Palestinian Teenagers Attend Hamas Terror Camp

By Elior Levy. While their senior counterparts have been testing new homemade rockets and rebuilding the terror tunnel infrastructure, more than 10,000 teenagers arrived at an Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades training compound.

Under the guide of a program named “Pioneers of the Resistance,” the Palestinian youths – aged 15 to 21 – underwent intensive military training, including exercises simulating operations of Hamas naval commandos.

The participants of the militant camp were also trained in firing sniper rifles, using the portraits of Israeli leaders for targets. The Palestinian youth simulated attacks on Israeli destinations through model terror tunnels, meant to recreate the experience of infiltrating Israeli territory. (Read more from this story HERE)

Woman Who Was Arrested as Utility Crews Forcibly Installed Smart Meters Fights Back

/5 Comments/in , /by

Photo Credit: The BlazeA woman who was arrested and later acquitted for taking cellphone video while utility crews forced installation of “smart meters” on another resident’s property is now suing for legal injuries.

On January 23, 2013, Malia “Kim” Bendis, 42, went to the home of Naperville, Illinois, resident Jennifer Stahl to take cellphone video of police and crews installing a “smart meter” without Stahl’s consent. Moments later, Bendis found herself in handcuffs because police said she was “eavesdropping.”

But Bendis’ eavesdropping charge was later dropped after the Illinois Supreme Court later ruled the law unconstitutional. She was also charged with resisting arrest of which she was acquitted in October 2014.

With all of her charges gone, Bendis has now filed a federal lawsuit in the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of Illinois’ Eastern Division. Bendis is suing the city of Naperville for legal injuries she says she suffered during the judicial process, the Naperville Daily Herald reported.

Even before Bendis’ arrest, she and Stahl were active and outspoken opponents to the city’s smart grid initiative, which includes the installation of smart meters at each one of the town’s homes and businesses. City officials say the high-tech effort will increase reliability, reduce operating costs, improve efficiency and reduce waste.

Mormon Church Quorum of Twelve Backing Special Protections for Homosexuals

/5 Comments/in , /by

Photo Credit: Life Site NewsLeaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints — also known as the LDS Church or Mormon Church — have formally backed laws that institute special protections for homosexuals.

While the Mormon leaders are insisting at the same time on the need for religious protections, one prominent Evangelical leader has warned that they are being “naïve” because these homosexual “non-discrimination” laws are used to target people of faith.

“Jesus ministered to marginalized outcasts,” said Sister Neill Marriott, who spoke with other leaders at a press conference announcing the church’s support for “laws and ordinances that protect LGBT people from discrimination in housing and employment.”

Elder Dallin Oaks, who is part of the Mormon Church’s Quorum of Twelve Apostles, cautioned that the public support for these laws and ordinances did not mean the church was abandoning its support for religious liberty.
