By Pamela Engel. The presidential campaign of US Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) fired back on Tuesday after Donald Trump called him “unstable” and threatened to sue him.
Cruz’s communications director, Rick Tyler, used a pun to dismiss Trump’s attacks.
“There is reason ‘Trumped up’ means phony,” Tyler told Business Insider in an email. “He should look hard in the mirror.”
The day before, Trump released a statement raging about Cruz’s supposedly “fraudulent” campaign actions.
He has accused Cruz of running robocalls saying that Trump was not going to run in the upcoming South Carolina primary. (Read more from “Ted Cruz’s Campaign Had a Snappy Response to Donald Trump’s Lawsuit Threat” HERE)

Gowdy Calls for Cruz to Denounce ‘Underhanded Tactics’
By Al Weaver. Trey Gowdy, a South Carolina congressman who supports Marco Rubio, called for Ted Cruz to repudiate the most recent bit of “underhanded tactics” ahead of the South Carolina primary.
“In the last week, we have seen a systematic effort by Sen. Cruz and his allies to spread false information and outright lies in the hopes of winning votes by appealing to our lowest common denominator,” Gowdy said. “Now, Its been reported that a fake Facebook page has been used to fool South Carolinians into thinking that I no longer support Marco Rubio and that I’m instead supporting Ted Cruz.
“Nothing could be further from the truth and I’m demanding that Sen. Cruz and his campaign repudiate these dishonest and underhanded tactics,” Gowdy continued. “We can have a debate about the future of our party and our country. But we need not leave our integrity behind.”
In the Facebook post at hand by a page titled “Trey Gowdy Prayers,” it says that the most recent debate “revealed [Rubio’s] total lack of integrity, intillect and foresight,” before switching the faux endorsement to Cruz.
It is official, I have changed my mind. My previous endorsement of Marco Rubio was a grave mistake. The recent South Carolina debate revealed his total lack of integrity, intillect and foresight,” the post reads. “To all my Christian and Conservative friends in South Carolina, I hereby formally endorse Ted Cruz for President of the United States.” (Read more from “Gowdy Calls for Cruz to Denounce ‘Underhanded Tactics'” HERE)

As you read this article, Turkish forces are massing along the border with Syria, and the largest “military exercises” in the history of the Middle East are being held in northern Saudi Arabia. The Saudis are publicly warning that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad “will be removed by force” if a political solution cannot be found, and Turkey is claiming that it may have to establish a “safe zone” in northern Syria “for humanitarian purposes”. Saudi Arabia, Turkey and their Sunni allies have poured massive amounts of money and arms into the conflict in Syria, and now that their Sunni insurgents are on the verge of total defeat, they are trying to come up with a way to justify going in there and doing the job themselves.
For the Saudis, their focus is on trying to convince everyone that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is an extremely dangerous dictator that must be removed at all costs. The following comes from the London Independent…
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad will be removed by force if the peace process fails, Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister has said.
“Bashar al-Assad will leave – have no doubt about it,” Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir told CNN. “He will either leave by a political process or he will be removed by force.”
Saudi Arabia has sent troops and fighter jets to a Turkish military base ahead of a possible ground invasion of Syria.
So precisely who will be doing the “removing” if force is necessary?
Are the Saudis ready to send in ground troops?
Apparently they are. Just consider what Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir told CNN…
Saudi Foreign Minister Jubeir made clear that his country’s troops would not go it alone.
“I can tell you that there is some serious discussion going on with regards to looking at a ground component in Syria, because there has to be a possibility of taking and holding ground, that one cannot do from the air.”
“We are saying we will participate within the U.S.-led coalition, should this coalition decide to send ground troops into Syria, that we are prepared to send special forces with those troops.”
But if the Saudis try to take Damascus and remove Assad by force, the Syrians and their allies will certainly fight back. That means that the Saudis will be fighting Hezbollah, the Iranians and the Russians.
Needless to say, Saudi Arabia is going to need a lot of help to do that.
So that may explain why Saudi Arabia has organized the largest “military exercise” in the history of the Middle East. CNN finally reported on this gigantic gathering of military forces in northern Saudi Arabia earlier today…
Saudi Arabia launched a massive military exercise that will include troops from 20 nations, state media reported Monday.
The drill, dubbed North Thunder, involves Arab and Muslim countries, according to the Saudi Press Agency. It’s taking place in King Khalid Military City in northeastern Saudi Arabia.
The news agency did not provide much information on what the exercise entails but called it “the largest in the region’s history.” The agency said it will involve air, sea and land forces.
This is the list of nations that are reportedly participating in these “exercises” so far…
-Saudi Arabia
-Jordan
-Bahrain
-Senegal
-Oman
-Qatar
-United Arab Emirates
-Sudan
-Kuwait
-the Maldives
-Morocco
-Pakistan
-Chad
-Tunisia
-Comoro Islands
-Djibouti
-Malaysia
-Egypt
-Mauritania
-Mauritius
As I discussed yesterday, 350,000 soldiers, 20,000 tanks, 2,450 warplanes and 460 military helicopters are reportedly gathering for these “military exercises”.
To me, that seems to be a great deal of overkill if the goal is just “training”.
Here is more about these “exercises” from RT…
The Saudi state agency made the announcement on Sunday, adding that participating troops will begin arriving in “the next few hours.”
The oil-rich nation described the exercises as “the largest and most important” military drills in the region’s history.
The so-called “Northern Thunder” exercise will take place in the north of the country and will include air, sea and land forces. SPA said that it will show that Riyadh and its allies “stand united in confronting all challenges and preserving peace and stability in the region.”
So are these forces massing for a ground invasion of Syria?
We shall see.
In the end, we probably won’t have to wait too long before we find out the answer.
Meanwhile, Turkish officials continue to assert that they may have to establish a “safe zone” for refugees in northern Syria. Since thousands of refugees are continually pouring their direction, they claim that they have no other choice but to go in and take control of the situation.
In fact, Turkey has already established several very large refugee camps on the Syrian side of the border…
Some 100,000 Syrian refugees are being looked after in camps inside Syria close to the Turkish border, including 35,000 who this month fled a Russian-backed regime offensive in northern Aleppo province, a top Turkish official said Friday.
Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Yalcin Akdogan, whose country has come under increasing pressure to open its border to people fleeing the violence, said the refugees were being accommodated in nine camps just across the border with Syria.
But make no mistake – this is not just about helping refugees.
The truth is that ISIS has been using Turkey as a home base for years, and hundreds of millions of dollars of ISIS oil has been shipped into Turkey where it has then been sold to the rest of the world. Barack Obama knows about all of this, and yet he has refused to do anything to stop it.
At this point the cooperation between ISIS and Turkey has become so obvious that even CNN is admitting that ISIS militants are being resupplied from Turkey…
To the east of Aleppo, Kurdish forces are, with American support, eyeing the remaining ISIS strongholds along the Turkish border — Jarablus and Manbij. The U.S. wants ISIS out, to remove its access to resupply of materiel and fighters from Turkey.
Meanwhile, Turkey, America’s NATO ally that is engaged in a brutal but often unseen war with the Kurds’ allies in Turkey’s southeast, doesn’t want the Kurds to advance, and may stop at nothing to prevent that.
Fortunately, the Russian bombing campaign has pretty much put an end to the endless parade of ISIS oil trucks that were entering Turkey, and now the primary supply line to Sunni militants in the strategically important city of Aleppo is about to be cut off.
The corridor that runs through the city of Azaz is vitally important, and the Prime Minister of Turkey recently insisted that the Turkish government “will not allow Azaz to fall”…
Turkey shelled YPG positions for a third straight day on Monday to try to stop its fighters seizing Azaz, just 8 km from the border. Ankara fears the Kurdish militia, backed by Russia, is trying to secure the last stretch of around 100 km along the Syrian border not already under its control.
“We will not allow Azaz to fall,” Davutoglu told reporters on his plane on the way to Ukraine. “If they approach again they will see the harshest reaction,” he said.
Unfortunately for the Turkish government, it appears that Azaz is already slipping away from the militants. The following was reported by an Iranian news source…
Ankara is likely to take action to counter the Syrian military and allied groups on choking up a supply link on which militants relied to get weapons and logistics.
Syrian troops and Lebanon’s Hezbollah fighters have retaken the town of Azaz, located to the northwest of Aleppo, prompting Saudi Arabia and Turkey to hint at deployment of ground forces to the region.
Asked if Ankara might act to reverse the gains, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu (seen below) said on Friday, “Wait for the next few days and you will have the answer,” Turkish paper Hurriyet reported.
Wait for the next few days and you will have the answer?
That sounds rather ominous.
Like I said yesterday, I don’t think that I have ever seen a scenario which was more likely to lead to World War III than the one that we are watching play out right now.
Do Saudi Arabia and Turkey actually expect to waltz into Syria and start taking territory without a response from the Syrians, Hezbollah, the Iranians and the Russians?
And if fighting does break out, how is the United States possibly going to stay out of it?
The truth is that Saudi Arabia and Turkey would never invade Syria in the first place without the express approval of the Obama administration.
The next couple of weeks are key. If we can get into early March without an invasion, by that time Saudi Arabia and Turkey may have missed their window. The troops gathered for the massive military exercise in northern Saudi Arabia will start to go home, and by then the Sunni militants remaining in Aleppo will probably be pretty much completely defeated.
But will Saudi Arabia and Turkey really be willing to walk away after pouring so much time, effort and money into the conflict in Syria? They had dreamed of turning Syria into a full-blown Sunni nation, and if they give up now Syria will end up being dominated by Iran and Hezbollah. It will be a result that is far worse than if they never tried to overthrow Assad in the first place.
So my gut feeling is telling me that Saudi Arabia, Turkey and their Sunni allies are not done in Syria. But their obsession with that country threatens to plunge us into World War III, and if that happens the consequences will be felt by every man, woman and child on the entire planet.

Dr. Ben Carson says Muslims who claim to be faithful to the U.S. Constitution and Shariah law are “schizophrenic.”
The Republican presidential hopeful appeared on Breitbart News Daily on SiriusXM on Tuesday and was asked whether devout Muslims can credibly claim they are loyal to America’s founding principles.
Do you think that Muslims that are Shariah-adherent can … integrate into a society where you have the rule of law and … a federal system?” Carson was asked, Mediaite reported.
“Only if they’re schizophrenic,” the retired neurosurgeon replied. “I don’t see how they could do it otherwise, because you have two different philosophies warring at you. … So, no. That would be very difficult. That’s why Teddy Roosevelt said what he said. He said you’re welcome to come here from any place and [practice] any religion as long as you accept our ways and want to be an American. If you don’t, then stay where you are” . . .
The Republican presidential candidate has never been one to shy away from a question on radical Islam. A September appearance on “Meet the Press” with NBC’s Chuck Todd enraged Muslim activists when Carson said he would not be in favor of having a Shariah-practicing American as the commander in chief.

Photo Credit: Daily Mail Sally Miller looked on in amusement as the man who would become the 42nd President of the United States slipped into her own frilly black nightgown.
The former Miss Arkansas has never forgotten how her younger lover proceeded to dance around the bedroom, serenading her with his saxophone and reducing her to a fit of giggles . . .
But while his attempts at lovemaking were largely forgettable, Clinton would rarely disappoint when it came to divulging intimate and potentially damaging secrets about his wife Hillary.
And what of those accusations so insulting or damaging that a potential Presidential candidate would unleash her operatives to intimidate or even bump off an elderly lady?
‘Hillary is a lesbian,’ Miller claims, reigniting a lingering but unsubstantiated rumor that has dogged the former First Lady for years. (Read more from “Former Miss Arkansas Speaks out About Her Freaky Night With Bill Clinton, Reveals Potentially Damaging Secrets About Hillary” HERE)

A federal judge on Tuesday ordered Apple to give investigators access to encrypted data on the iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino shooters, assistance the computer giant “declined to provide voluntarily,” according to court papers.
In a 40-page filing, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles argued that it needed Apple to help it find the password and access “relevant, critical … data” on the locked cellphone of Syed Farook, who with his wife Tashfeen Malik murdered 14 people in San Bernardino, California on December 2.
“Despite … a warrant authorizing the search,” said prosecutors, “the government has been unable to complete the search because it cannot access the iPhone’s encrypted content. Apple has the exclusive technical means which would assist the government in completing its search, but has declined to provide that assistance voluntarily” . . .
The judge ruled Tuesday that the Cupertino-based company had to provide “reasonable technical assistance” to the government in recovering data from the iPhone 5c, including bypassing the auto-erase function and allowing investigators to submit an unlimited number of passwords in their attempts to unlock the phone. Apple has five days to respond to the court if it believes that compliance would be “unreasonably burdensome.” (Read more from “Judge Forces Apple to Help Unlock San Bernardino Shooter iPhone” HERE)

President Obama said today that he does not believe GOP frontrunner Donald Trump will make it to the White House, but the real estate mogul took the remark as a compliment, saying Obama has done a “lousy job.”
“I continue to believe Mr. Trump will not be president,” Obama said while speaking at a press conference in Rancho Mirage, California. “And the reason is because I have a lot of faith in the American people” . . .
“It’s not hosting a talk show, or a reality show. It’s not promotion, it’s not marketing,” Obama said. “It’s hard and a lot of people count on us getting it right” . . .
The president also took a shot at the rest of the GOP field, saying “foreign observers are troubled” by the GOP’s rhetoric, specifically the doubting of climate change and proposals to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. (Read more from “Obama: Trump Won’t Make It to White House” HERE)

Just as President Barack Obama is planning to send Congress his plan to close the Guantanamo Bay prison this year, leaders of the military say it will not transfer any detainees to the U.S., unless the law prohibiting such transfers is changed.
Lt. General William Mayville Jr., the director of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said as much in a letter to Congress last week, which I obtained. Mayville’s letter gets to the heart of a knotty constitutional issue on Guantanamo: Does President Obama have the authority to close the facility without the consent of Congress?
Writing to 16 House members who served in the military, Mayville writes: “Current law prohibits the use of funds to ‘transfer, release or assist in the transfer or release’ of detainees of Guantanamo Bay to or within the United States, and prohibits the construction, modification or acquisition of any facility within the United States to house any Guantanamo detainee. The Joint Staff will not take any action contrary to those restrictions” . . .
Unlike Mayville, Obama himself has been coy on whether the law prevents him from closing Guantanamo. In December at his year-end press conference, the president said, “We will wait until Congress has definitively said no to a well-thought-out plan with numbers attached to it before we say anything definitive about my executive authority here.” (Read more from “Military Tells Congress It Can’t Send Gitmo Detainees to U.S.” HERE)

You might have missed it, but voting has already begun. No, I’m not referring to the South Carolina primary; I’m referring to the Texas primary … scheduled for March 1. You heard that right. Voting for the March 1 primary has begun two weeks early, even before the South Carolina primary. Other Super Tuesday primary states, such as Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Arkansas, have early voting as well.
Art. II §1 cl. 4 of the Constitution states: “The Congress may determine the Time of chusing the Electors, and the Day on which they shall give their Votes; which Day shall be the same throughout the United States.”
In 1845, Congress designated that day as “the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November.” For some states to allow voting on multiple days prior to the one set by Congress and have more than half their votes cast before Election Day is incontrovertibly unconstitutional.
Common sense also dictates that we should have a single national election day. The notion that, over the course of a volatile campaign, different people would vote at different times is absurd because there are so many events that could alter the public perception about a candidate. It makes sense that everyone should observe the same campaign for the same duration and render their verdict on a uniform set of information when the entire campaign is completed.
That some states hold voting open for an entire month before the general election in November is clearly against the spirit of the Constitution and the foundation of democratic elections. There is already a remedy for those who can’t show up at the polls on the designated Election Day — the absentee ballot. Now we have an entire month of early voting in some states, the turnout of which often influences the outcome of the legitimate Election Day.
Obviously, the Constitution is silent on the question of primaries because that is a party election, not a constitutionally mandated election. Political parties, in cooperation with the states, can do what they please. And clearly, primaries were designed to be staggered over the period of a few months to allow new candidates to slowly gain traction. But the notion that individual voters within the same state would vote at different times definitely violates the same spirit of free democratic elections.
In some ways early voting during the primaries is even worse than during the general election. For the most part, people voting in the same primary share similar values and priorities but are unsure as to which candidate best represents those values. This is why primaries are so volatile. We see candidates rise and tumble within a few days based on one statement, revelation, or debate performance. Who knows which candidates will be seriously competing by March 1? Who knows what will be revealed about any number of candidates. It’s simply absurd to begin voting two weeks ahead of time during a presidential primary with such a large field.
The bottom line is that we already have enough low-information voters casting ballots that will affect the future of the republic. There is no need for a protracted “election month” just for the purposes of boosting turnout. Anyone who is incapable of voting in person on Election Day or casting an absentee ballot shouldn’t participate in the process anyway.

Although Alaska is experiencing another painful trough in the oil price cycle, it is only temporary in nature and should not be used to permanently sandblast the shine off of Alaska. To go there would cause a rapid exodus of Alaska’s voluntary private sector causing a Detroit-style death spiral.
The responsibility for our hemorrhaging $3.8 Billion state deficit lies squarely on Juneau’s shoulders that has more than doubled the size of state government since 2006 under the ferry dust assumption that oil prices would remain boosted to their lofty heights and not cycle up and down as they always do with the ebb and flow of supply and demand.
Public unions, hundreds of 100% state funded non-profits, and various other government dependent groups have surrounded our state legislators in Juneau in a budget Alamo and have demanded they surrender to new taxes without making any meaningful cuts in state spending.
Only the free market sets the price for a barrel of oil. When prices go up, oil companies tend to drill more and hire more employees. Conversely, when oil prices plummet, they lay off excess employees and streamline their operations to ride out the low price cycle. The big three oil producers in Alaska have been doing just that. The public sector refuses to do so. Yet, cut we must- to near a pre-bubble 2006 spending level adjusted for population growth and inflation (around $4.1 Billion). Any politician can spend someone else’s money and get perpetually reelected, yet it’s in the streamlining of government in the face of staunch organized opposition where true leaders are born.
Elected leaders tend to forget that they were elected to serve the non-government sector, not the government sector. It’s the public sector that supports the private sector, not the other way around. We are a people with a government, not a government with a people.
Governor Bill Walker and Senator Lesil McGuire/ GCI have both sponsored plans to tax the private sector to pay for excess government rather than to cut back to a sustainable level. The biggest tax would be on your PFD check- Alaska’s way of providing a mineral rights dividend because our statehood compact restricts private ownership of mineral rights. For instance, the lion’s share of a $2000 PFD check could be hoovered up into state coffers leaving you with a paltry $300-500. Governor Walker has also proposed a plethora of other new creative taxes including a gasoline and a state income tax. His administration has evidently not researched the massive fleeing of labor and private investment capital that always results when a state drops an income tax on them- like dropping a wolf into a herd of caribou.
If we cut the Alaska state budget to sustainable amount ($4.5 Billion is this year’s target goal with some more cuts needed next year), we do not need to sandblast the shine of Alaska’s economy and punish Alaska’s poorest with a PFD tax. Governor Walker would not need to tax everything that drives, floats, or flies, nor hire a small army of tax collectors.
Tax and spend socialism is the dark utopian model of the past. Individual freedom and limited government are the sunrise of the future. Alaska’s state motto is, “North to the Future.” Will Alaska continue to march “North to the future” or will it backslide into the insatiable bureaucratic model that has collapsed many economies in the past? It’s all up to you- the grassroots voter and taxpayer. Join me in individually contacting your legislators to stand firm on the $4.5 Billion budget line with no new taxes or PFD raid. You can also sign this letter and email it to the legislators listed below.
The Juneau Alamo is under heavy siege by an army of public lobbyists. Your voice must penetrate that siege. Rest assured that if they falter now, we the voters will remember the budget Alamo. This fall’s election will be their San Jacinto.
By Reuters. U.S. Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump blasted close rival Ted Cruz on Monday, threatening to file a lawsuit challenging his eligibility for the White House if the Texas senator does not take down his “false ads.”
The New York billionaire, whose campaign has long been littered with insults, called Cruz “totally unstable” and said he is “the single biggest liar I’ve ever come across, in politics or otherwise, and I have seen some of the best of them.”
Speaking at a news conference in South Carolina, Trump said he could “fight back” by bringing a lawsuit against Cruz over the fact that he was born in Canada, which Trump argues makes him ineligible to become president.
“If he doesn’t take down his false ads and retract his lies, I will do so immediately,” he said. (Read more from “Trump Is Threatening Cruz With This Major Lawsuit If Ted Doesn’t Remove ‘False Ads'” HERE)

Donald Trump: Ted Cruz Is ‘Unstable’
By Jeremy Diamond and Tom LoBianco. Donald Trump escalated his battle with Ted Cruz on Monday, calling the Texas senator “unstable,” threatening a lawsuit and urging the Republican National Committee to “intervene.”
“One of the ways I can fight back is to bring a lawsuit against him relative to the fact that he was born in Canada and therefore cannot be President,” Donald Trump said in a statement. “If he doesn’t take down his false ads and retract his lies, I will do so immediately. Additionally, the RNC should intervene and if they don’t they are in default of their pledge to me. ”
The billionaire businessman later held a press conference in which he said he “never ever met a person that lies more than Ted Cruz.”
Trump continued to heap criticism on Cruz in an interview with CNN’s Jim Sciutto Monday afternoon on “The Lead,” saying that with “guys like Ted Cruz — it’s all talk and no action.” (Read more from “Donald Trump: Ted Cruz Is ‘Unstable'” HERE)
