JFK Jr. Told The World Who Murdered His Father – But Nobody Was Paying Attention

If you like mysteries (and conspiracy theories) this post is for you...
On theMillenniumReport.com website, Jane Grey has this long story with many, many implications that should confirm to you that we "average" people are very unlikely to ever know the true nature of all things political. Author Jane Grey begins with this:
"I suppose most people think that from the day he saluted his father’s casket at just three years old, til the evening his plane went down, he just went about his business, playing the game of life like everyone else."

Emails: Obama DOJ Officials Sought to Route 'Slush Fund' Cash to Orgs of Their 'Choosing'

I bet you thought these fines went directly to the U.S Treasury.
I know I did. And it's billions of dollars. Oh my!...
Joe Schoffstall reports on this in his article posted on FreeBeacon.com:
"The practice in question began in August 2014 when the Justice Department entered into a $17-billion settlement with Bank of America for selling residential mortgage-backed securities leading up to the 2008 financial collapse. Similar arrangements were made with J.P Morgan Chase and Citigroup that brought the total amount to $36.65 billion.

The DOJ settlement program has come under fire by a number of critics who refer to it as a "slush fund" that allows money to be funneled to third-party activist groups."

Robert Mueller: Commencement Speaker Unequal to Message

So... do you see anything wrong here?...
In a post at Academia.org, Cliff Kincaid thinks there is:
"Consider the special counsel, Robert Mueller, who gives commencement speeches about honor and integrity. This is a guy who met secretly with Islamist groups and sanitized FBI training materials so that FBI agents could not recognize and identify the enemy trying to kill us.

The Judicial Watch report, “U.S. Government Purges of Law Enforcement Training Material Deemed ‘Offensive’ to Muslims,” should have disqualified Mueller from ever again serving in any role as an investigator of anything remotely connected to national security."

Kuhner's Corner: Elizabeth Warren lied about being sexually harassed

Of course, I have no way of knowing whether this story is true or not.
That being said, it's pretty convincing, especially because of Senator Warren's previous (mis?)representation of her ancestry for personal gain...
On the WRKO Radio website, Jeff Kuhner reports:
"Sen. Elizabeth Warren has just jumped the shark. The Massachusetts Democrat has been caught lying about being a victim of sexual harassment. The question is: Will the GOP hold her accountable? If they do, this scandal may be too much even for the progressive icon to withstand."

"Benghazi Liar Schiff Now Lies about Uranium One"

Representative Schiff is on television alot.
His act does not play well with me, and I wholeheartedly agree with this writer's question, "Have you no shame?"...
At AmericanThinker.com, Daniel John Sobieski writes on the subject:
"Schiff, as we know, is no stranger to partisan efforts to distract and is a veteran of using lies, false charges, and obfuscation to distract the American people from the crimes and corruption of Team Obama and Team Clinton. He shamelessly defended the incompetence and criminal negligence of Obama and Clinton in Benghazi.

Schiff was the individual who called the heroes who fought off terrorists from the roof of the CIA annex in Benghazi liars for their account of the Obama/Clinton administration’s denying security improvements, ignoring warnings of the attack, and the issuance of a stand-down order for any rescue, an order they ignored."

Nolte: Hillary Clinton Colluded with Russians to Rig Election Against Trump

Everything always comes back to the biased, dishonest media's portrayal of things...
At Breitbart.com, John Nolte gives an overview of what's going on. Here's part of it:
"Before we get to the proof of Hillary colluding with Russia, we need to debunk off a few of the narrative-myths the liars in the mainstream media continue to hurl.

To begin with, thus far there is no evidence that any Republican was involved in any way with creating this dossier. Those who say so are intentionally conflating an apple with an orange. Even the left-wing Washington Post admits as much in the story that broke the news of the Clinton/DNC hiring of Fusion GPS:

Marc E. Elias, a lawyer representing the Clinton campaign and the DNC, retained Fusion GPS, a Washington firm, to conduct the research.

After that, Fusion GPS hired dossier author Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence officer with ties to the FBI and the U.S. intelligence community, according to those people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.


In other words, based on what we now know, if anything happened between a Republican and Fusion, it had nothing to do with producing the discredit dossier."

"NRA Takes Shot At Ridiculous CNN Apple Spot"

For me, CNN deserves every shot taken at it.
No pun intended...
At BearinArms.com, Tom Knighton discusees one such shot:
"Several days ago, CNN released a video featuring an apple. By now, I suspect most of you are familiar with it. It was a shot at President Trump and many other critics of the network’s highly partisan coverage, but a horrible one. After all, their defense was basically, “Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.” Now, the National Rifle Association has their own shot back and the cable news network:"

Pro-Trump Student Senator trolls OSU government, won't put gender pronoun on name tag - Red Alert Politics

So, do you have a preferred gender pronoun?...
On the RedAlertPolitics website, Siraj Hashmi posted about this:
"Nick Davis is becoming a thorn in the side of the Ohio State University student government by not participating in the organization’s practice of putting his preferred gender pronoun on his name tag.

Davis, who started OSU’s chapter of Students for Trump, is a member of the Undergraduate Student Government’s General Assembly. Every student senator is given an official nametag that reads their name, position in the organization, and preferred gender pronoun like “He/him/his” or “She/her/hers.” Davis left the pronoun blank.

In an interview with the College Fix, Davis said, “I don’t think it is necessary when it comes to myself personally. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it’s safe to assume it’s a duck. I look like a male, I sound like a male, it’s safe to assume I’m a male.”"

The Shocking Truth About Term Limits - Paul Jacob

The State of Michigan has term limits.
Who knew?  I sure didn't...
At Townhall.com, Paul Jacob recently reported on this:
"“Michigan’s strictest-in-the-nation term limits law will force nearly 70 percent of state senators out of office in 2019 and more than 20 percent of representatives,” reports the Detroit News, 'a mass turnover that is fueling renewed interest in reform.'

What?!! Could term limitation laws actually make our poor underpaid and overworked politicians vacate their powerful perches . . . even when they don’t want to?"

Who's Funding the Anti-Trump Resistance? The Money Trail Leads Back to Soros

I've read a lot about this European George Soros guy being linked to and backing anti-American demonstrations of all types.
Now, it appears there is a paper trail to prove it...

A contributor at LegalInsurrection.com, "Fuzzy Slippers" discusses the myriad of anti-Trump factions, and their financial support:
"Although Soros ties are often difficult to follow as he revels in his role as hidden puppet master, Nomani ended up right back at his doorstep time after time.

It’s not surprising, then, to learn that the anti-Trump “resistance” is also heavily-funded by the billionaire rabble-rouser Soros and his expansive web of influence."

At DailySignal.com, U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz writes about his proposal, along with a history lesson:

Nolte: Roger Goodell Fell for Mainstream Media's Fake Reality and Destroyed NFL (Possibly Forever)

But, but, but, the sports world is composed of mostly college graduates. Right?...
There is much more in this Breitbart.com article by John Nolte than the NFL and Roger Goodell:
"Nevertheless, our sports and political media, which are now infested with hardcore, Obama-era leftists, have consciously refused to recognize reality. Even as Democrats lose their strongholds in New England, even as Republicans win every special election, the media not only refuse to recognize the fact that America is a right-of-center country, they are intentionally fabricating a reality that says the exact opposite.

The reason for this goes beyond personal partisan denial. It is a propaganda tactic. Basically, the media believe that the only way to push America to the far left is to manufacture a reality (backed by fraudulent polling) that says we are already there and that anyone who is not on the Progressive Express is in the minority."

"Uranium One Deal: Obama Administration Complicit..."

President Trump wants to "drain the swamp".
Activities like this are likely a big contributor to that desire...

At NationalReview.com, Andrew C. McCarthy tells the "Uranium One" story:
"The Obama administration also knew that congressional Republicans were trying to stop the transfer. Consequently, the Justice Department concealed what it knew. DOJ allowed the racketeering enterprise to continue compromising the American uranium industry rather than commencing a prosecution that would have scotched the transfer. Prosecutors waited four years before quietly pleading the case out for a song, in violation of Justice Department charging guidelines. Meanwhile, the administration stonewalled Congress, reportedly threatening an informant who wanted to go public."

Liberal college kids love Bernie's new tax plan! ....And then they find out it's actually Trump's | Herman Cain

I've long been a believer that many, if not most protestors are clueless, and that protesting is more social than it is informed outrage...
On Herman Cain's website, Robert Laurie makes an important point:
"I do find the following clip fascinating. In it, politically minded college liberals praise Trump's tax plan - because they think it belongs to Bernie Sanders.

Their knee-jerk reaction perfectly illustrates a couple of things. First, it points out that these young, supposedly-engaged leftists have no idea what they're talking about. You don't need to be a hardcore policy wonk to know that this is Trump's plan. Anyone who's seen a newscast in the last month should be able to peg these as Trump talking points. Second, it shows that identity politics has all but consumed the modern political debate. The merits of ideas are irrelevant - all that matters is the (D), (R), or (I) after the politician’s name."

London cops to stop investigating shoplifting and vandalism; arrests for “offensive comments” up 53%

Robert Spencer is always in trouble with the left-leaning citizenry, to include being protested and even banned from giving speeches. Must have something to do with reporting like this:
"London’s Metropolitan Police Force has said it will give up on investigating many instances of 'low-level' crime such as shoplifting and vandalism, saying it is 'not practical to fight them in a time of cutbacks.'

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Mark Simmons claimed that giving up on investigating many offenses was necessary so police constables’ efforts could be 'focused on serious crime and cases where there is a realistic chance that we will be able to solve it.'"

"Collapse of Global Warming Deception Triggers Variety of Bailouts and Revisionism"

If the biased media would have given equal time to opposing points of view all of the likely backtracking wouldn't be necessary...
On the WattsUpWithThat website, Dr. Tim Ball discusses how the advocacy of global warming theory will explain away their erroneous ideas:
"We will see an increasing number of people changing their positions on global warming as the global warming ship sinks. It will take various forms including; articles appearing that subtly shift previously held positions; reevaluation of data; or finding new evidence that allows a change and perhaps worst of all those who say they knew the science was wrong all along but did not consider it important to speak out; dredging up a sentence or two from their writings that they claim showed they knew. The level of inventiveness will astonish as rats desert the sinking ship."

"Repairing the U.S. Senate"

Here's an article about the dysfunctional United States Senate...
About a week ago, Jon N. Hall wrote about the current condition of the United States Senate:
There needs to be a great deal more turnover and churn in the Senate. For the last 104 years, since the ratification of the 17th Amendment, the low rate of turnover has been largely due to voters; they send the same people back to D.C. election after election. They do this because their senators “bring home the bacon,” and give them “free stuff.” But the Senate has become dysfunctional, swampy, and corrupt (see Bob Menendez). Because the amendment avenue for fixing the Senate is so daunting, it is left to you, dear voter, to change that body. And the way to do that is to throw the careerist bums out in the caucuses and primaries.

In 1787, the Founders gave us a stable, sound, and solid system, but the tinkering and tweaks since haven’t always improved that system."

ICE Chief Pledges to Increase Workplace Crackdowns on Undocumented Immigrants ‘by 4 to 5 Times’ | KTLA

Los Angeles base KTLA-5 TV has this story on it's website:
"Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Tom Homan spoke at the conservative Heritage Foundation and was asked whether his agency would do more to target not just undocumented workers, but their places of work.

Homan said he has instructed Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the investigative unit of ICE, to potentially quintuple worksite enforcement actions next year. He said he recently asked HSI to audit how much of their time is spent on work site enforcement, and said he has ordered that to increase 'by four to five times.'"

Judgement Day: Hollywood

So, like many of us, this writer has seen this play before.
Hopefully, in this "different time", the outcome will justify the crimes...

At Townhall.com, Derek Hunter anticipates how this will play out:
"While the media is covering the story at the moment, it won’t for long. This is a major scandal and it negatively impacts two industries the media is known to protect: Hollywood and Democrats. No matter how bad it gets, the press will always return to their natural state of liberal bias and protection.

That’s why it’s important for everyone with a story to tell about the perverse, abusive culture in Hollywood needs to come forward now.

Even though he’s a pariah at the moment, Harvey Weinstein is still rich, incredibly powerful, and undoubtedly knows where a lot of other people’s bodies are buried. There is little question large chunks of the entertainment and political worlds of Los Angeles, New York, and Washington, DC, are living in fear that he might talk. That incentivizes the existing power structure to “put this story to bed” as quickly as possible. So, if new allegations against someone else come out later it can, in the classic defensive move perfected by Bill and Hillary Clinton, be declared “old news” and dismissed."

CNN's website reported on this:

Chains around their ankles clank with each step, a steady beat punctuating the engines' roar.
Some men walk in sneakers without laces.
Some sport navy blue prison-issue shoes.
One wears work boots, still stained with paint.
This may be the last time they touch US soil.
The Boeing 737 beside them is bound for Guatemala City.

"Maybe Hollywood doesn’t produce great scientists?"

Many of us know this; but sadly, TOO many do not...
An article by Charles G. Battig's is republished on the WattsUpWithThat website. In it, Mr. Battig writes:
"Promoting fears of man-made climate change has become the side occupation for some of Hollywood’s leading stars. Why should the public care what actor X has to say on the topic? Should they be swayed by what an actor says? A consideration of what acting and movie-making entails provides a hint.

Hollywood can be said to be in the professional business of lying and suspending rational thought. In a sense, actors and directors are professional liars – they work to make seem real a work of fantasy. They work diligently to make you accept what you see on the screen as a reality, although it is an illusion of someone else’s making. Actor X is adjudged a star if he is able to take the words of someone else, the script, and deliver a performance on screen that fools us into believing that that actor is the fictitious character. No original thinking is necessary; the actor is parroting the ideas of someone else."

"Weinstein was easy, Hollywood pedophiles won’t be"

Something bad has been going on for a long time within the upper echelons of power and politics, and that includes Hollywood...
Jack Cashill writes about it at WND.com. He begins:
"It only took the media about 13 years to bust Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein for his sexual depredations once reporters had the story in hand.

But that story will prove to be relatively easy on the media. There is another, trickier Hollywood story the nation’s newsrooms have been sitting on longer than Weinstein was stalking young women.

For years, powerful men in Hollywood have been preying on young boys, and the media have remained mute largely for fear of offending the LGBT lobby."

Nets Blackout Twitter Shutting Down Blackburn Campaign Video

Social media companies are as biased (or more) than mainstream media companies.
Update: I believe, after much criticism, the item discussed here may have now been restored...

At NewsBusters.org, Nicholas Fondacaro reported:
"Nets Blackout Twitter Shutting Down Blackburn Campaign Video"

A spokesperson for the social media company told the campaign’s vendors that Blackburn’s talk of stopping the sale of baby body parts was “deemed an inflammatory statement that is likely to evoke a strong negative reaction.” And if the campaign wanted to be allowed to promote the advertisement, that part had to be taken out. Unironically, Twitter’s own advertising policy declared that company “provides a platform for its users to share and receive a wide range of ideas and content, and we greatly value and defend our users' ability to express themselves."

Government at Work - Illinois

Why do I suspect Illinois is not the only state like this...
In the Chicago Tribune, Diana Sroka Rickert recently wrote about her experience with the Illinois state government:
"I walked into the Thompson Center on my first day, not knowing what to expect. In many ways, my new workplace was like any other large organization: big building, thousands of people and plenty of broken computers.

Except this building is dilapidated, many of the employees are political hires and the computers will never be repaired, ever.

And it’s all paid for by you, Illinois taxpayers.

“Welcome to state government,” said a new colleague, as we boarded the elevator for the 16th floor.

This summer I got to see how Illinois government works from the inside when I accepted a high-level position at the governor’s office."

"Nolte: Silence is Complicity - The Powerful Said Nothing as Harvey Weinstein's Alleged Victims Piled Up"

There's something about Hollywood, and everyone knows it.
It's very likely that early exposure of this guy's behavior could have prevented additional occurrences...
At Breitbart.com, John Nolte calls out those that remained silent:
"Thursday’s New York Times bombshell, which has effectively ended Oscar-winning producer and Democrat super-donor Harvey Weinstein’s career, contains two equally disturbing pieces of news, only one of which the national media will report and explore.

The first, of course, involves three decades of sexual misconduct allegations against Weinstein, who has released a broad statement accepting “responsibility” for his behavior coupled with the claim that the Times got some things wrong.

The second bombshell, the one our national media is already sweeping under the rug, is that for twenty-plus years, many in Hollywood believed Weinstein was abusing his power to procure, harass, and manipulate young women, and no one said anything — not even the powerful."

Hurricane Harvey (Weinstein) - Derek Hunter

The life of Mr. Weinstein highlights the epitome of the left's "progressive political" hypocrisy...
At Townhall.com, Derek Hunter writes about how so many looked the other way because he was one of them. Of course, those same people treat conservatives and their causes (patriotism) much differently:
"The people who openly condemned then-candidate Donald Trump as a sexual predator for what he said in the Access Hollywood tape protected a man who actually acted that way. They happily made him richer because he helped make them rich.

When the story broke there was a wave of “I can’t believe it took this long”-ism, which makes you wonder why none of those people now claiming it was about time had remained complicit for so long. If they knew, they also knew journalists who could’ve reported on it. Yet they chose silence.

Some still choose silence."

Weird Is Not Unique

This is a "thinkers" article about culture.
The writer makes quite a few interesting points...
At AmericanThinker.com, Mike J. Kirkwood offer his insights about this:
"Individuality, an indispensable gift to the greater whole of which we are part, enables us to contribute to and to share in the gifts of society. Everyone wins.

Our self-obsessed Culture of One seeks destruction of the standards that define the whole, and the chaos of "no rules" births anarchists who fill the vacuum with a tyrannical minority that preys on a self-absorbed and apathetic majority.

This myopic fixation on "the one" excludes the unifying oneness of the greater whole. It sacrifices the greater good for the wants of the self. The multitude that is the foundation of society is thus set adrift, abandoned...culture conquered from within. Everyone loses.."

"The Supreme Court Will Probably Strike a Huge Blow to Public-Sector Unions"

Unions have been in trouble for some time. It appears this could add to that...
This is part of Robert Verbruggen's article posted at NationalReview.com:
"One can hardly overstate the ramifications of going this route. In recent decades, private-sector unionization has fallen to 6 percent, in part owing to the success of right-to-work laws. In the public sector, by contrast, more than a third of workers still belong to a union. The latter number will drop precipitously if public-sector workers nationwide are allowed to opt out of dues and fees.

That would be a laudable result even apart from the constitutional concerns with the status quo. Regardless of what one thinks of unions in the private sector, it’s undeniable that organized labor is a problem for state and local governments. Private-sector labor bargaining is naturally adversarial; unions want higher pay, employers want to pay less. But in the public sector, unions donate huge sums to supportive politicians and then “negotiate” with employers run by those very politicians as taxpayers foot the bill. The entire system is a farce and has led to inflated compensation packages and budget crises."

"Did California’s Plastic Bag Ban contribute to San Diego’s Hepatitis A Crisis?"

Oh my. Who would have thought of this?...
At LegalInsurrection.com, Leslie Eastman reports on this:
"It seems the only law California follows is the one related to unintended consequences. In addition to voting overwhelmingly for Hillary Clinton, our state also approved a ban of single-use plastic bags being offered by stores to contain purchased items.

This move may have been one of the factors that has contributed to San Diego’s Hepatitis A outbreak. The virus is spread via human feces in San Diego, as those bags were a readily available sanitation article for the homeless."

The False Narrative of Trump's Puerto Rican Response

I remind you that Democrats control Puerto Rico, and the "media" is our source of info...
At theConservativeTreehouse.com, "Sundance" tells us what's really going on:
"•50% of the native Puerto Rican National Guard refused to report to duty when the governor called them up. •Thousands of tons of supplies and equipment, provided by FEMA, U.S. military and U.S. relief agencies, sit at ports while municipal government has no process for delivering them. •Frente Amplio (PR Teamsters Union – truck drivers) are on strike and refusing to deliver supplies. •Over 10,000 U.S. federal personnel are providing recovery and relief on the island…."

Even the HuffingtonPost reports...
The problem HuffPost IS distribution:
…They have the generators, water, food, medicine, and fuel on the ground, yet the supplies are not moving across the island as quickly as they’re needed.

“It’s a lack of drivers for the transport trucks, the 18 wheelers. Supplies we have. Trucks we have. There are ships full of supplies, backed up in the ports, waiting to have a vehicle to unload into. However, only 20% of the truck drivers show up to work. These are private citizens in Puerto Rico, paid by companies that are contracted by the government”..
