Asked by a street reporter whether a gay president or a female president will take office first, Rivers replied, “We already have it with Obama.”
“You know Michelle is a tr*nny,” she went on. “A transgender. We all know.”

Photo Credit: The New AmericanGovernment scientists are not only blaming global warming for the centuries-long collapse of western Antarctic ice sheets, but global warming is also being blamed for record levels of sea ice in the South Pole.
Antarctica’s sea ice set another record this week, reaching 815,448 square miles above normal, breaking a record set this past weekend of 800,776 square miles above normal ice coverage.
These two records set within a week of one another shattered the previous ice extent record of 710,428 square miles above average that was set back on December 20, 2007.
But record-breaking ice coverage still worries scientists who argue that it’s being caused by global warming.
“The primary reason for this is the nature of the circulation of the Southern Ocean — water heated in high southern latitudes is carried equatorward, to be replaced by colder waters upwelling from below, which inhibits ice loss,” Mark Serreze, director of the National Snow and Ice Data Center, told author Harold Ambler in an email.

I consider it a special mission of mine that I watch MSNBC shows so that my fellow conservatives aren’t exposed to the vapid ignorance of liberal cable news anchors like Rachel Maddow. Here’s a great example – while mindlessly joining in on Obama’s taunting of John Boehner and the Republicans, she aired a clip of him saying Republicans didn’t support the building of bridges and roads, that we have been doing “for fifty, a hundred years…”

Mayor Alan Long stands before a packed auditorium at Murrieta Mesa High School to talk about what he says is a “very controversial” subject. The audience is filled with those who are upset that migrants are illegally crossing the border in Texas and being flown to Riverside County for processing in, among several places, Murrieta.
He tells those assembled that “Wside you’re on we can agree there must be change.” There is applause. He says the fact is that the Federal Government wants to bring 140 people every 72 hours… indefinitely. And, as he told me earlier at City Hall, that is a concern for the city.
Supervisor Jeff Stone tells the audience “We have a lack of political will to protect our borders which is a Federal responsibility. He says the Federal Government needs to “stop this action of exporting frightened and traumatized women and children from Central American countries for nothing more than satisfying a political agenda.” He says “these are human beings. We do not make border policy. We have a responsibility to make sure those who come into our country are free of communicable diseases. We have always been humanitarian and must provided social services. But, must react in a peaceful and orderly way and, demand the Congress immediately secure our borders. They must enforce current immigration laws.

HHS Bars Congressman from Seeing Immigrant Children
By Joel Gehrke.
A Health and Human Services official refused to allow a member of Congress to enter a facility in his district where some of the unaccompanied immigrant children are being housed.
Representative Jim Bridenstine (R., Okla.) was told he could schedule an appointment for July 21. “What are they trying to hide?” Bridenstine said after the incident. “Do they not want the children to speak with Members of Congress? As a Navy pilot, I have been involved in operations countering illicit human trafficking. I would like to know to whom these children are being released.”

Photo Credit: WNDWhen Suzanne Chase opened the letter from the Department of Veterans Affairs, she says she felt like she was in the twilight zone. The letter invited her husband Doug, a Vietnam vet, to set up an appointment with the local clinic, which he had requested in 2012…
Suzanne told WBZ-TV that, bearing in mind that the letter was 22 months late and forgetting the fact that her husband was dead, the note at the bottom of the letter was simply unbelievable.
At the bottom of the letter, dated June 12, it reads: “We are committed to providing primary care in a timely manner and would greatly appreciate a prompt response.”
“I was like you have to be kidding, right,” Chase recalled.

Long wait times and secret lists that result in our nation’s heroes dying before they can get medical care – all while the VA spends hundreds of millions on solar panels – isn’t right, plain and simple. And it’s not going to get better unless we demand that it does.

“I pulled you over – the horn, I don’t know what that was about,” the officer told Miner, who recorded the traffic stop.
“Because you were speeding and had your cellphone in your hand,” said Miner, explaining why he was honking.
“Police officers can actually use technology when they’re driving,” said the officer.
“Oh, so you guys are above the law?” Miner asked.

Photo Credit: APThe government accountability group Judicial Watch filed a legal motion Friday that threatens to drag the Obama administration into federal court to answer questions about the lost emails of ex-IRS official Lois Learner and others implicated in the tea party targeting scandal.
Judicial Watch, which was at the forefront of exposing the targeting scandal, had filed a Freedom of Information Act request in May 2013 for emails of Ms. Lerner and other officials. But the IRS did not inform the group of the lost emails, even as it told the court that it was cooperating with the FOIA request.
“The IRS is clearly in full cover-up mode,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “It is well past time for the Obama administration to answer to a federal court about its cover-up and destruction of records.”

Look, he is not a natural politician. I don’t think he even likes politics, which is odd for a man who is president. He clearly has completely failed at doing what the president has to do, which is work with the other side. But the worst part of it is he doesn’t care about the constitution.

Photo Credit: YouTubeThe Missouri legislature has given teachers the green light to carry guns in school. Now that carrying a gun is an option, educators from 10 different districts are getting trained in the ways of safe and responsible gun use.
One might call it “real gun control.”
Shield Solutions, a gun-training center, is teaching two staff members — volunteers — from each district how to use the elementary Glock 19 semi-automatic pistol. The fee is $17,500.
Interestingly, the gun trainers punish mistakes with physical training, akin to push-ups or other common exercises, when the volunteers fail to hit intended targets and hit “innocent” ones instead.
