FBI investigations targeted Valerie Jarrett's family

 

President Obama and Valerie Jarrett

Valerie Jarrett has been one of Barack Obama’s closest advisers in the Oval Office and it’s no secret her family history is checkered with adherents to Communism, but a new report from Judicial Watch, the Washington watchdog group, reveals the FBI even investigated several of her relatives.

For example, files obtained by Judicial Watch and posted online show that her father, James Bowman, was in 1950 in communication with a “paid Soviet agent named Alfred Stern, who fled to Prague after getting charged with espionage.”

The files also reveal, JW reported, “Bowman was … a member of a Communist-sympathizing group called the Association of Internes and Medical Students.”

Another document in the files was a note from J. Edgar Hoover to FBI officials in Denver instructing them to investigate “James Edward Bowman” for his connections to other suspects.

“It is incumbent upon you to resolve the question which prompted CSC to refer instant case. It is also necessary to determine the degree of association between the applicant and any individual on whom the CSC has furnished derogatory information,” the note said.

Want to know more about Obama and just who is guiding him? It’s here, in “Leading from Behind: The Reluctant President and the Advisors who Decide for Him.”

It apparently was in connect with Bowman’s possible involvement with the “European Recovery Program and was dated 1955.

The document shows that Jarrett’s grandfather, Robert Taylor, was thought also to have been “in contact with Stern on a number of occasions.”

Bowman moved to Iran to work after his release from the Army Medical Corps in 1955.

The report explained, “According to Bowman’s government file the Association of Internes and Medical Students is an organization that ‘has long been a faithful follower of the Communist Party line’ and engages in un-American activities. Bowman was born in Washington, D.C., and had deep ties to Chicago, where he often collaborated with fellow Communists.”

“JW also obtained documents on Bowman from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) showing that the FBI was brought in to investigate him for his membership in a group that ‘follows the communist party line.’ The Jarrett family Communist ties also include a business partnership between Jarrett’s maternal grandpa, Robert Rochon Taylor, and Stern, the Soviet agent associated with her dad.”

Then, the files reveal, Jarrett’s father-in-law, Vernon Jarrett, “was also another big-time Chicago Communist.”

The files were obtained by Judicial Watch as part of its probe “into the Jarrett family’s Communist ties,” the group reported.

“For a period of time Vernon Jarrett appeared on the FBI’s Security Index and was considered a potential Communist saboteur who was to be arrested in the event of a conflict with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). His FBI file reveals that he was assigned to write propaganda for a Communist Party front group in Chicago that would ‘disseminate the Communist Party line among … the middle class,’” the report said.

Judicial Watch called Valerie Jarrett, “a liberal extremist who wields tremendous power in the White House. Faithful to her roots, she still has connections to many Communist and extremist groups, including the Muslim Brotherhood. Jarrett and her family also had strong ties to Frank Marshal Davis, a big Obama mentor and Community Party member with an extensive FBI file.”

She previously has been exposed for her role in the Department of Justice gun-running scandal called “Fast and Furious,” and also when she was, according to JW, a “key player in the effort to cover up that “Attorney General Eric Holder lied to Congress about the Fast and Furious.”

Under that program, the government let guns be smuggled illegally to drug cartels in Mexico. The purported goal was to trace the guns and their use, but the government simply lost track of them.

“In 2008 JW got documents linking Valerie Jarrett, who also served as co-chairman of Obama’s presidential transition team, to a series of real estate scandals, including several housing projects operated by convicted felon and Obama fundraiser/friend Antoin ‘Tony’ Rezko,” JW reported.

WND reported two years ago that a New York Times profile of Valerie Jarrett, “glossed over her family’s radical history.”

The profile, from September 2012, received another round of media attention when BuzzFeed.com reported the White House tried to defend Jarrett behind the scenes by circulating glowing talking points about her to other administration officials who were candidates to be interviewed for the Times piece.

The resulting piece essentially ignored much of her family’s history.

For example, regarding Jarrett’s mother, the Times said only that “her mother had a Chicago street named after her for her work in early childhood education.”

But WND was first to report, Jarrett’s mother, Barbara Taylor Bowman, founded an education initiative alongside the family of unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers’ that was funded by Ayers, Obama and ultimately the 2009 “stimulus” legislation.

The Chicago school, the Erikson Institute, focuses on training people who work in early childhood development.

WND also reported earlier Valerie Jarrett in 1987 got her start in politics, working for Washington as deputy corporation counsel for finance and development. She was deputy chief of staff for Mayor Richard Daley, during which time she hired Michelle Robinson, then engaged to Obama.

WND reported just recently that Obama critics have suspected that the president’s “tilt toward Iran” in negotiations over that rogue nation’s nuclear program is because of the influence of Valeria Jarrett, who was born there.

Retired Lt. Gen. William G. “Jerry” Boykin, former deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence under President George W. Bush, spotlighted Jarrett’s influence in a Fox News interview in February.

“There are many who are now saying that [Jarrett] is really the architect of this non-treaty with the Iranians,” he said, “which ultimately will result in the Iranians having a nuclear program, and America having to accept a nuclear-armed Iran.”

Stanley Kurtz, senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, noted in a 2011 National Review article Jarrett was born and raised in Iran for the first five years of her life.

“In explaining how she first grew close to Obama, Jarrett says they traded stories of their youthful travels,” he wrote.

Kurtz said Jarrett has affirmed that she and Obama “reject traditional American exceptionalism.”

Massive Planned Parenthood facility faces own abortion

 

A court in Illinois will have to determine now whether a massive Planned Parenthood abortion facility is legal and can continue to operate after an appeals court determined its neighbors had a valid concern that it was out of compliance with the city’s zoning requirements.

The ruling came from the Illinois Appellate Court, Second Judicial District, which reversed an earlier decision by the lower court to dismiss the complaint brought by the Fox Valley Families Against Planned Parenthood.

They are represented by lawyers with the the Thomas More Society of Chicago.

The plaintiffs argued that the mega-abortion operation, which was built eight years ago in Aurora, Illinois, was illegal since it was built on and remains located in a business development district – reserved exclusively for profit-making businesses.

Planned Parenthood has set itself up as a nonprofit.

Get “Abortion Free: Your Manual to Building a Pro-Life America One Community at a Time,” and start putting its recommendations into effect in your home town.

The appeals court ordered discovery and further proceedings in the lower court to address the neighbors’ main claim, that the zoning specifically bans nonprofits so Planned Parenthood is not allowed to be there.

Peter Breen, special counsel for the society, said, “This facility was built on a foundation of deception, and the appellate court’s ruling reaffirms that Planned Parenthood must obey Aurora’s zoning laws, just like any other resident of Aurora.”

He said, “Planned Parenthood built its abortion facility in Aurora under false pretenses and in blatant violation of the strictures of Aurora’s zoning code, which require a tax-paying for-profit use on that site.”

The society report said unless there are some further proceedings that move the case up to the Illinois Supreme Court, the case will return to the DuPage County Circuit Court for litigation over the conflict between Planned Parenthood and the city’s zoning.

According to the society, “Planned Parenthood boasted that it had been paying property taxes on the property from 2006 throughout the pendency of proceedings in the circuit court, and its attorneys argued that such payment of property taxes proved that it was lawfully operating as a for-profit entity. However, within a few months after the suit was dismissed by the circuit court, Planned Parenthood applied for and was granted property tax exemptions and a rebate of taxes paid for the prior three years, arguing that its use of the property was strictly charitable and non-profit. In 2007, Planned Parenthood also won $8.05 million in 501(c)(3) tax-free bond financing from the Illinois Finance Authority upon its promise that it would use the property for exclusively charitable purposes.”

The structure was constructed with Planned Parenthood hiding behind dummy “front” companies during the time the 21,000-square-foot building was permitted and built.

The Thomas More Society said, “Planned Parenthood withheld its true intended use and the resultant negative impact on its neighbors from the people and city of Aurora. After media revelations in July 2007 that the property was to house a massive Planned Parenthood abortion facility, intense public outcry resulted. But Aurora finally allowed the facility to open in October 2007.”

Aurora Mayor Thomas Weisner made the decision to allow the abortion facility to move forward, but then the city later argued that it was a legislative decision by the city that reached that conclusion.

“We conclude that no such decision was made. We also conclude that it was error to interpret plaintiff’s claim against the Planned Parenthood defendants as one for administrative review. … We reverse the trial court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of the Planned Parenthood defendants on plaintiff’s claim that the ongoing use of the property violates the [zoning.]

“We also hold that it was error to limit discovery on this issue and to strike plaintiffs’ request for declaratory judgment relating to this issue.”

Planned Parenthood had built the building under the name of Gemini Office Development, GOD, which in turn was owned by 21st Century Office Development, which was controlled by Planned Parenthood.

At public meetings regarding the project, Planned Parenthood concealed its identity until it was outed by local reports. Officials were describing the project as a “medical office building.”

The plaintiffs also had suggested that surgical procedures such as abortions also were not allowed in an office building setting, and also that it required a special use permit, which was not obtained.

The original list of complaints also noted Planned Parenthood did not have the required parking availability or yard size. And they said Gemini did not seek variances or exceptions to those requirements.

The plaintiffs also explained that they had been unable to obtain voluntary statements pertinent to the case from the zoning administrator, mayor and city council “due to their hostility.” Under formal discovery, such statements could be required.

Did ISIS give a clue about Jade Helm 15?

 

I’ve echoed in a recent column that I don’t think Jade Helm 15, the largest domestic military exercises involving every branch of service in seven states this summer, is a security risk to Texas. Even the Pentagon isn’t that stupid to mess with the Lone Star State. However, I have also said that I believe Jade Helm 15 is more than “just a training exercise,” and I think ISIS just gave us the clue.

The exact words in my past column about Jade Helm 15 were: “I do believe, in addition to the largest domestic military training, it is also a display of power (near the southern border) intended for deterrence of enemies like ISIS and other terrorists, whom the FBI has already said have tentacles in all 50 states.”

And guess who just released its intent to smuggle nuclear weapons across the U.S.-Mexico border? You guessed it. Granted, ISIS is a band of liars following the father of lies, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a nugget of truth in its propaganda, especially when experts agree. ISIS even has a nuclear plan.

The International Business Times reported: “The Islamic State group claims it could purchase a nuclear device from Pakistan and transport it to the United States through drug-smuggling channels. The group, also known as ISIS and ISIL, would transfer the nuclear weapon from Pakistan to Nigeria or Mexico, where it could be brought to South America and then up to the U.S., according to an op-ed allegedly written by kidnapped British photojournalist John Cantlie and published in Dabiq, the group’s propaganda magazine.”

Chuck Norris provides real solutions to our county’s problems and a way to reawaken the American dream in his best-seller, “Black Belt Patriotism.”

The Nigerian newspaper Premium Times further reported that Boko Haram, the Nigerian jihadist group that pledged its formal allegiance to ISIS in March, could carry out the nuclear bomb import into the U.S. as easy as smugglers use drug routes.

The ISIS op-ed piece explains the feasibility: “Let me throw a hypothetical operation onto the table. The Islamic State has billions of dollars in the bank, so they call on their wilāyah in Pakistan to purchase a nuclear device through weapons dealers with links to corrupt officials in the region.”

It went to explain, “The weapon is then transported overland until it makes it to Libya, where the mujāhidīn move it south to Nigeria. Drug shipments from Columbia bound for Europe pass through West Africa, so moving other types of contraband from East to West is just as possible.”

Then, “The nuke and accompanying mujāhidīn arrive on the shorelines of South America and are transported through the porous borders of Central America before arriving in Mexico and up to the border with the United States.”

Finally, “From there it’s just a quick hop through a smuggling tunnel and hey presto, they’re mingling with another 12 million ‘illegal’ aliens in America with a nuclear bomb in the trunk of their car.”

Say it’s preposterous? ISIS will never get the capability? Experts disagree.

Bloomberg reported that Indian Minister of State Defense Rao Inderjit Singh warned the crowd at the Shangri-La regional security conference in Singapore two weeks ago that “[w]ith the rise of ISIL in West Asia, one is afraid to an extent that perhaps they might get access to a nuclear arsenal from states like Pakistan.”

In September 2014, Joe Cirincione, president of Ploughshares Fund, a global security foundation, and author of “Nuclear Nightmares: Securing the World Before It Is Too Late,” wrote in the New York Daily News: “Its seizure of banks and oil fields gave it more than $2 billion in assets. If ISIS could make the right connection to corrupt officials in Russia or Pakistan, the group might be able to buy enough highly enriched uranium (about 50 pounds) and the technical help to build a crude nuclear device. Militants recruited from Europe or America could help smuggle it into their home nations.”

And what about a year ago on July 8, 2014, when Iraq’s United Nations ambassador Mohamed Ali Alhakim, following the seizure of 40 kilograms [88 pounds] of uranium compounds from Mosul University, wrote and warned the U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon that these materials “can be used in manufacturing weapons of mass destruction,” according to Reuters.

Alhakim went on to explain, “These nuclear materials, despite the limited amounts mentioned, can enable terrorist groups, with the availability of the required expertise, to use it separate or in combination with other materials in its terrorist acts.”

In December 2014, Hamayun Tariq, a British ISIS member now based in Syria claimed insider knowledge when he wrote on social media that the jihadist group “obtained the uranium from Mosul University and now possesses a ‘dirty bomb’ that it is now considering detonating in a public area,” according to the International Business Times.

Friends, I’m not falling for the trap of ISIS fear baiting or mongering. This isn’t fiction, fairytale or conspiracy. I’m talking about the U.S. government not sticking its heads in the sand or at least asking us to stick ours in it. Washington needs to quit downplaying or minimizing the nuclear risk, lest we find ourselves right back in the unprepared era of pre-9/11.

I don’t think that Jade Helm 15 is a risk to Texas or any other state. I think ISIS is, as the FBI admitted in February. The sooner we send every last one of its members to Mars, the better off America and this world will be. Now, there’s a covert action the military should implement: ISIS mission to Mars!

Lastly, now look at the official military map for Jade Helm 15 and how those military exercises’ locations in five of the seven states are a buttress against the entire length of the southern border:

Is it a coincidence that the Pentagon chose locations stretching from the southern most point of Southern California all the way over to New Mexico and Texas, just above El Paso and over to San Antonio near the Gulf of Mexico?

Whether or not you believe the intelligence sources of Judicial Watch and WND about ISIS collaborating with Mexican drug cartels and the existence of ISIS terror camps just eight miles from the Texas border town of El Paso, is it a coincidence that Jade Helm 15 exercises are just a stone’s throw away from that border crossing?

Is it also a coincidence that ISIS just happened to share publicly with the world that it vows to smuggle nukes through the southern border of the U.S.?

It is also a coincidence that Jade Helm 15 is incorporating the largest scale “unconventional warfare” exercises at those southern points with Special Forces from all branches of the military?”

Is it also a coincidence that Jade Helm 15 runs from July 15 through Sept 15, just a few days past the key terrorist date of 9/11?

I’m back to the words of Franklin Roosevelt, who said, “In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.”

Bruce Will Always Be Bruce

The world is all abuzz with the Vanity Fair issue of "Call Me Caitlyn", where Bruce Jenner has his photo debut as a transgender woman. The entire fiasco is sad. He is a sick man and we should pray for him. Pray for all of them. Pray that they find peace through the love of Jesus Christ. They have no peace, not within themselves and not without.

Every transgender will always be what they were born as, either man or woman. To say that they are a man trapped in a woman's body or vice versa is to say that God made a mistake. Let me be perfectly clear... God does NOT make mistakes. Period.  All the turmoil Bruce is going through and coming out as a "woman" amounts to nothing; it is vanity. 

Think of it this way. If in 1 or 2 thousand years, some archaeologist comes along and finds his grave. Aside from a couple of perky saline pouches sitting on top of his rib cage, the bones will be those of a man. History will know him as a man, not a woman. My bones will be female. If his body were found in the woods and forensics were needed to determine gender, it would be male. No exceptions.

Bruce and every other transgender can call themselves whatever they wish but the facts are the facts. A man is a man and a woman is a woman. In the end, no one will care and it will all be for nothing. 

As for the petition to strip Jenner of his Olympic medals, I do not agree with that. He earned every single one of them and he was not pretending to be a woman in disguise when he got them. Let him have them. Perhaps he could be buried with them. Then maybe those archaeologists that find his male bones someday will be able to say, "Here lies Bruce Jenner. An Olympic Decathlon Champion." Let the rest of his story fade. It won't matter in the end.

'Operation Moonshine' joins long list of Obama scandals

 

Federal documents obtained by the government watchdog Judicial Watch confirm Secret Service agents were “covertly deployed” from the White House to the private home of an aide to the agency director to monitor what essentially was a neighborhood fight over noise.

The scandal is the latest to join a massive list of Obama administration scandals that include Obamacare, Benghazi, executive amnesty, Veterans Administration fraud, spying on reporters, and Fast and Furious.

WND recently compiled a big list of Obama scandals and already identified a number associated with the Secret Service that included serious security breaches at the White House, agents soliciting prostitutes before a presidential visit and alcohol abuse.

Read the story of a top-ranked Secret Service agent who walked away from it all, in Dan Bongino’s “Life Inside the Bubble.”

Now Judicial Watch has received records from the Secret Service “that shed light into a scandalous operation in which agents were covertly redeployed from the White House compound to protect a close friend of the agency’s director during a dispute with a neighbor.”

The Judicial Watch report said the friend, Lisa Chopey, was also the administrative assistant of former Secret Service Director Mark Sullivan.

Chopey “was embroiled in a discord with a neighbor in her rural community of La Plata, Maryland.”

“At Chopey’s request the agency opened a federal investigation into the neighbor, Mike Mulligan, and surreptitiously redeployed agents assigned to guard the White House to protect her, the records show. Chopey accused Mulligan of ‘disturbing the peace’ by riding noisy ‘four wheelers’ around the neighborhood.”

Her father allegedly was assaulted, too.

So the Secret Service jumped in, conducting undercover surveillance on Mulligan, harassing him and running database checks, the report said.

“The effort was variously referred to as ‘Operation Moonlight’ and ‘Operation Moonshine,’ which is amusing considering drunken Secret Service agents, including a member of President Obama’s protective detail, recently made headlines for crashing a car into a White House barricade following a late-night party,” Judicial Watch said.

The scandal came to light when a story broke that “agents in a special surveillance unit were pulled off duty for at least two months to go an hour’s drive to Chopey’s Maryland home.”

The federal documents, obtained by Judicial Watch under a Freedom of Information Act case, said officials in the Washington Field Office “decided to utilize the Secret Service’s ‘Prowler’ team to conduct visits to the employee’s home, located in rural Maryland.”

“The Prowler assignment consists of a rotating team of two special agents assigned to the Washington Field Office who respond to suspicious persons and situations in and around the White House and the National Capital Region. The Prowler team agents use unmarked, fully equipped Secret Service vehicles and wear civilian clothes without Secret Service identifiers.”

On at least one occasion, two different teams of agents were dispatched to check the home the same day, the documents reveal.

The results of a government investigation found the employee’s “position as working in the director’s office and her friendship with high-level Secret Service officials created the appearance that it was that relationship, rather than furthering official government functions, that motivated the assignment.”

“On at least two of the days … the president was in the White House at the same time that the Prowler team was engaged in welfare checks in rural Maryland, at least 50 minutes away,” the government documents confirmed.

Barney Frank's hubby: Give blacks watermelons

 

Former U.S. Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., with “husband,” James Ready

An independent undercover journalist has secretly filmed retired Rep. Barney Frank’s “husband,” James Ready, suggesting Democrats give blacks watermelons to keep their votes.

In the film posted at Barbwire.com, other Democrats and homosexual activists express their disgust for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who, they say, is “an Oreo cookie” and doesn’t know he’s black.

The undercover footage dated May 2, 2015, was posted by Ryan Sorba, chairman of the Young Conservatives of California and author of the forthcoming book, “The ‘Born Gay’ Hoax.”

The video also shows Frank’s husband accepting what appear to be marijuana joints and stuffing them into his pocket.

Sorba has created a GoFundMe account to raise $95,000 because, he says, he wants to “use my skills as an undercover journalist to fight for socially conservative public policy for one year by exposing the chicanery and lies of the left.”

The film shows Sorba engaged in the following exchange:

Sorba: “I think we need to keep the, you know, the food stamps and the welfare running strong because it keeps the blacks in our camp. I mean, it does.”

Ready (laughing): “And menthol cigarettes.”

Sorba: “And menthol cigarettes and EBT cards, you know what I’m saying?”

Ready (laughing): “And watermelon!”

Sorba: “You’ve got a lot of these black Baptist churches that vote right wing.”

Ready: “Oh my God, yeah. And they vote against themselves, really.”

Sorba: “Yeah.”

Ready: “I know, dude. I just can’t even deal sometimes with how ridiculous, like, our species is, how we can be so incredibly smart and then so incredibly ignorant.”

The film cuts to Ready and Frank.

Ready: “We’re gonna go over a …”

Frank: “We’re gonna go to the marijuana thing.”

Sorba: “You’re going to go to the marijuana thing?”

Frank nods in agreement and gives Sorba a “high” five.

Watch Sorba’s undercover video:

Later in the clip, Sorba restates Ready’s comments and says, “Gotta give watermelon to get the blacks to vote for us [gays]. Don’t you think?”

Ready, laughing, responds, “Shhhhh!”

Sorba replies, “You can’t say that.”

Ready says, “No, I know, not out loud.”

Ryan Sorba

A man identified as Richard Eastman, who is handing out what appears to be marijuana, declares, “Marijuana is not a crime, right. Take three of them!”

Sorba asks, “Are those real joints?”

Eastman says, “Yes they are.”

Sorba: “Wow!”

Ready says “thank you,” as the film shows him stuffing the items into his chest pocket.

Eastman says, “It’s a medical emergency. … And I’m one of the founders of medical marijuana, Richard Eastman, and I opened one of the first post shops in L.A.”

Ready turns to Eastman and says, “Thank you for your hard work.”

Sorba continues to interview various homosexual activists in the film.

He turns to California State Senate President Pro Tempore Kevin de Leon and asks: “On the question of the marriage issue, if we use watermelon, can we get Thomas to side with us on one case?”

De Leon laughs hysterically and turns to another man: “Hey, John, he’s got a good question right here!”

Sorba then encounters Greg Rodriguez, a gay activist and who is considering running for the 42nd state Assembly District in 2016.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas

Sorba asks, “What’s your take on Clarence Thomas, then?”

Rodriguez replies, “He’s married to a white woman. So I don’t, just, I don’t get it.”

The film cuts to an interview with a San Francisco State University professor emeritus, who says, “Does that count when you don’t know you’re black? I don’t think he knows he’s black. … Yeah, no, really, really, because he divorced his black wife, married, married a white gal, which is fine, ya know, married, ya know. And he lives in an all-white suburb. I mean, you start adding these things together and you go (shrugs) …”

The interviews continue with pro-gay activist Richard McIntyre calling Clarence Thomas “an Oreo cookie from the word go.”

Then Rep. Barney Frank – when the issue of Clarence Thomas arises – says, “Gotta wait for him to die.”

Then the clip shows several homosexual activists admitting that they’ve chosen to be gay, they were not born that way and they claim they were because it’s “the party line.”

On Barbwire.com, Sorba explains, “Last month, I went undercover and discovered that many homosexuals attribute their orientations to molestation or other traumatic life experiences.

“While I was investigating, I heard quite a few racist comments.”

Sorba said he then began exploring the issue of homosexuality and race.

“What I found once again was shocking,” he wrote. “Although the homosexual movement has attempted to link itself to the black civil rights movement, racism still runs rampant in a community that supposedly espouses equal treatment.”

Concerned individuals may contribute to Sorba’s GoFundMe campaign here.

U.S. rep.: Force gun owners to 'buy insurance or pay fine'

 

Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., is one of the most anti-gun members of Congress.

U.S. Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., has introduced a bill that would force gun owners to have liability insurance or face fines of up to $10,000.

According to Maloney. the Firearms Risk Protection Act would curb so-called “gun violence,” much like car insurance has lowered vehicle fatalities, she said, because gun owners would be more careful.

In a statement to the Hill, Maloney said:

“We require insurance to own a car, but no such requirement exists for guns. The results are clear: car fatalities have declined by 25 percent in the last decade, but gun fatalities continue to rise.”

Maloney said auto insurance carriers incentivize drivers to take precautions to reduce accidents, but no such incentives exist for firearm owners. She wants to change that.

“An insurance requirement would allow the free market to encourage cautious behavior and help save lives,” she said. “Adequate liability coverage would also ensure that the victims of gun violence are fairly compensated when crimes or accidents occur.”

This is the second time Maloney, who is one of the biggest gun control advocates in Congress, has introduced the legislation, according to the Hill. A few weeks ago she reintroduced legislation that would require sellers to obtain a background check for all guns sold at gun shows.

The Gun Show Loophole Closing Act, long championed by former Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, D-N.Y., would subject anyone selling or transferring a gun to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System and require that transfers be reported to the attorney general.

Second Amendment advocates said the proposal sounds like a money-maker for insurance companies and lawyers while throwing law-abiding gun owners under the bus.

Larry Pratt of Gun Owners of America

“If it were constitutional, which it is not, to require gun owners to buy liability insurance before they can own a gun, then politicians who support this kind of legislation should be required to buy liability insurance before they open their mouths and/or push legislation,” said Larry Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America. “If any in the media support this, then they should also be asked to buy liability insurance.”

Alan Gottlieb, founder and executive vice president of the Second Amendment Foundation, said this isn’t the first time this idea has been floated.

“From time to time this proposal has been floated in various states,” he said. “Sometimes it has been supported by insurance company lobbyists as they could profit from the premiums.”

But the real intent, besides shoveling a windfall of cash to the insurance industry, is to make gun ownership more cost prohibitive for more people, Gottlieb said.

Alan Gottlieb is founder of the SAF.

“This is just one more infringement on Second Amendment rights that the gun prohibition lobby is pushing to make gun ownership more expensive so that less people can exercise their constitutional civil rights,” he said.

Check out “On the Firing Line: Essays on the Defense of Liberty” by Larry Pratt, leader of Gun Owners of American.

Mac Slavo, a blogger who writes on gun issues at SHTFPlan.com, brought further perspective to the issue of “incentivizing” gun safety.

“Rather than liability insurance to lower the rate of fatalities from criminal gun usage, Congress should look to the car industry for solutions. Improving the safety of citizens, for example, could be accomplished by giving them free access to body armor, as opposed to the nationwide ban proposed earlier this year,” Slavo writes.

“But that would just make too much sense. So, akin to stopping global warming with increased taxes and carbon credits, which do nothing but enrich carbon exchange management firms operated by people like climate change spokesperson and Internet-creator Al Gore, if you are a politician, especially in the liberal state of New York, the only possible solution would be to make people pay more money for the privilege of providing for their own personal defense.”

Slavo says the likelihood that insurance policies are responsible for the 25 percent drop in car fatalities is almost zero. “Rather, as noted by the Insurance Institute For Highway Safety and people with even a smidgen of common sense, it’s probably more likely that improved vehicle design and safety features are responsible for the large decrease:

“They found that vehicle changes — including improved structural designs, the addition of safety features and an evolving mix of vehicle types — were the main source of declining risk from 1993 through 2006.”

To suggest that gun owners are not already incentivized to be responsible with their firearms is “ridiculous on its face,” Slavo writes, “considering there are hundreds of laws on the books designed specifically for people who commit murder or even accidental manslaughter. The legal mechanisms for those acting criminally or negligently with a firearm already exist. If you kill or injure someone with malicious intent or by accident you face prison time and/or financial damages to be seized from your personal wealth to compensate victims.”

At every turn and on every level anti-gun politicians are desperately trying to supplant the U.S. Constitution, Slavo said. “They will use any excuse and take every opportunity – including but not limited to restrictions on popular ammunition and all out import bans on guns – in their effort to disarm the American people.”

Speaking Ill Of The Dead

Beau Biden

We've all heard the saying, "Don't speak ill of the dead." I challenge that. Why are we not supposed to speak ill of the dead? Because they can no longer defend themselves? Okay, but if that person was corrupt and they only ever lied their way out of any situation, then you can rest assured that if they were still with us, they would continue said lies. If Obama ever bites it, you can bet that I will STILL speak ill about the man. Just because someone dies, doesn't mean that their actions while living suddenly stop affecting people. Hitler has been dead for a long time yet the lives of those Jews who survived have been forever changed. Screw Hitler. Speaking ill of the dead.

As far as Beau Biden goes, he was no angel. In fact, the rotten apples never fall to far from the rotten trees. Do you recall the name Larry Sinclair? Refresh yourself here. Obama is gay and Larry Sinclair called him out on it. He even wrote a book called  

Barack Obama & Larry Sinclair:: Cocaine, Sex, Lies & Murder? 

It's about 10 bucks but worth the time to read. Sinclair, who currently resides in Duluth, Minnesota, alleges that he had sex with and snorted cocaine with Barack Obama in Chicago on two occasions, November 6th and 7th of 1999.  To be fair, Sinclair is no angel himself. As far back as 1986, he has been in trouble with the law and had been in and out of prison. He is an openly gay man who had his share of drinking, drugs and casual sex. I hold no respect for Sinclair. But neither do I for Obama. Only the truth holds my attention.

In 2004, Sinclair was living in Mexico and was watching the Democratic National Convention when Obama came on to give a speech. Sinclair recognized his "butty". (I did not misspell "buddy") Here is the story from Sinclair:

He is in the Chicago area, and he wants to have a good time. He hires a limo driver working for a company called Five Star limousine service, and he directs the driver to take him to hot spots for action. The driver takes Sinclair around town, eventually dropping him off at or close to a gay bar. Knowing that Sinclair is hot for action, the limo driver contacts someone. That someone is Senator Barack Obama (but not a senator at the time of course). Once introduced--and Obama used his actual name according to Sinclair--Obama and Sinclair engaged in little more than routine small talk. All Sinclair remembers about Obama was that he was in local "public service," and Sinclair pursued it no further.
Sinclair asked Obama if he could get him drugs, and he said yes. Obama made a phone call on his cell phone, and the limo driver took them to an unspecified location, presumably so that Obama could pick up the drugs. Sinclair gave Obama $200. Obama exited the vehicle, was gone for a short while, and then returned. Obama had acquired cocaine for Sinclair, of which he snorted a few lines in the limo, while Obama pulled a pipe out of his pocket and smoked crack cocaine. While the drug activity was going on Sinclair gave Obama oral sex. This all happened on the night of Nov. 6.
After finishing the limo driver took Sinclair back to his hotel and dropped him off. The next day or evening--the time is unclear according to Sinclair's story--Obama unexpectedly showed up at Sinclair's hotel room. Whether or not they did drugs together again I am not sure. But Sinclair does claim that he once again gave Obama oral sex.

Even still, Sinclair didn't think much of seeing Obama on TV. It wasn't until 2007 when Obama was running for President that Sinclair decided to talk. See, Obama had claimed in his two autobiographies as well as through the media, that while he had experimented with drugs in his youth, that drug use had ended when he was in college. Sinclair knew this was a lie. Obama was passing himself off as the savior to the world. He was going to slow the rise of the ocean and heal the planet for goodness sake! Obama talked a really good game but Sinclair knew he was not being truthful. Here's the thing: Many of us knew Obama was a lying waste of a skin sack, and we didn't need to blow him or coke to know it. Just sayin'. Regardless, Sinclair set out to set the record straight.

In the latter part of 2007, Sinclair began contacting the Obama campaign to ask them to publicly correct Senator Obama's claim concerning his drug use. He was hopeful that Obama would acknowledge that his drug use ended later than he claimed in Audacity of Hope. (Keep in mind that this is the mindset of those who got Obama elected. Not the brightest by far). Unsurprisingly, there were never any acknowledgments from the Obama camp. At some point, however, Sinclair began receiving texts and calls to his cell phone from someone calling himself "Mr. Young". At first, Sinclair thought Mr. Young was someone from Obama's campaign. But then Mr. Young asked if Sinclair had said anything about the sexual encounters with Obama. This raised red flags for Sinclair because in his communication with the Obama campaign, he had never mentioned a single word about having sex with Obama, only ever asking for clarification concerning the drug use.

Long part of the story short, Mr. Young was not with the Obama campaign. He was another gay male who claimed to have had sex with Obama as well. The last communication Sinclair had with Young consisted of Young telling him that Obama would make no acknowledgment or correction concerning Sinclair's claim of drug use and that he (Young) was being used to milk Sinclair for information, specifically who else Sinclair might have told about his sexual encounters with Obama.

On December 24th, 2007, Donald Young was murdered execution style in his apartment. The connection to Obama? Reverend Wright, the inflammatory black preacher that Obama listened to for more than 20 years. Sinclair provided a sworn statement to the Chicago PD regarding his conversations with Young. The murder remains unsolved. Young and another black male who was also killed execution style were also members of that same church. As a side note, there have been many others killed as a result of Obama's deception. Read about those here.

From here, Sinclair took to YouTube and spoke of his encounters with Obama. A little later a website known as whitehouse.com headed by Don Parisi, offered Sinclair $10,000 to take a polygraph and $100,000 if he passed it. The thing is, whitehouse.com was a former porn site that had recently gotten into political commentary. After taking the polygraph and collecting his 10k, Sinclair was informed that the "expert" hired to administer and interpret the polygraph, one Ed Gelb, found that he (Sinclair) was "deceptive" on the questions concerning the drug use and sex with Obama. The problem? Gelb had a phony Ph.D and the results of the polygraph were never made available to other experts as had been promised.

Sinclair had been taken for a paltry 10 grand. Not long after, rumors began to swirl that someone from the Obama campaign had paid Gelb $750,000 to say Sinclair had lied. What is truth? Who knows at this point but one thing is clear. The "failed" lie detector has stuck to Sinclair like glue.

Shortly after this fiasco, Sinclair was arrested on a fugitive warrant from the State of Delaware after completing a press conference in D.C. This warrant came from a sealed grand jury indictment orchestrated by the attorney general of Delaware, Beau Biden, the son of Obama's pick for V.P. In late August of 2008, all charges against Sinclair were dropped, but the message had been sent.

The younger Biden, Hunter, is not exempt from the rotteness. These characters are all entwined. Obama, Jarrett, Rezco, Blogovich....on and on the chorus goes. Obama was elected because of a well oiled and well maintained machine of deception. Chicago politics. 

My advice to my fellow Patriots? Either drink the tea and pay the tax or throw it in the damned harbor and make a stand. Your forefathers would have already begun the revolution and had it wrapped up by now.

New push to seize Hillary's email server

A filing in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida is asking the judiciary to take control of Hillary Clinton’s email server, because there could be “material evidence that is in imminent danger of being lost.”

In the motion, Larry Klayman of Freedom Watch alleges the evidence could “document the predicate acts and major crimes.”

Klayman brought the case against Bill and Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act alleging the Clintons ran a criminal enterprise “with the objective of enriching themselves by trading U.S. government action, decisions, policy changes, influential statements, and favors in return for donations from persons, companies, and countries who benefit.”

“The plaintiff files this motion respectfully requesting that the court order the preservation of that information contained on a private computer file server (‘server’) that then Secretary of State Defendant Hillary Clinton (‘Secretary Clinton) used to conceal the U.S. government records off-site, rather than at a U.S. Department of State facility,” he wrote.

WND reported earlier when the case originally was brought by Klayman, who for years has been a Washington watchdog, having engaged Bill Clinton in court battles during his presidency. He’s also taken on terror interests and foreign influences in the United States, and just over the last year or so has won a federal court judgment against the National Security Agency’s spy-on-Americans program as well as bringing a case against Barack Obama over his amnesty-by-executive-memo strategy.

His RICO case alleges that over the last decade or so, the Clintons have participated in “acts” that constitute a “criminal enterprise” that was designed to enrich them.
According to Klayman, the Clintons, through mail and wire fraud and false statements, misappropriated documents that he was entitled to receive and possess under the Freedom of Information Act regarding Hillary Clinton’s actions, including her involvement in releasing Israeli war and cyber-warfare plans and practices.

Hillary Clinton orchestrated this release to harm and thwart Israeli plans to pre-emptively attack Iranian nuclear sites to stop the Islamic nation’s march to producing atomic weapons, according to Klayman.

The claim also explains Klayman used the nation’s FOIA to try to get details from the State Department regarding waivers to do business with Iran – “acts [that are] alleged to be the result of the defendants selling government influence in exchange for bribes from interests which have donated to The Clinton Foundation, paid huge speaking fees to the Clintons and other means.”

WND was unable to get a response from the combined New York office for Bill Clinton and the foundation.

The current scandal over Hillary Clinton’s emails as secretary of state – she set up a private server in her home, avoiding government paths that are archived and then reportedly destroyed tens of thousands of emails without any oversight – “is alleged to cover up” evidence of crimes, Klayman explained.

News reports say she printed out thousands of pages of emails from the server that she thought belonged to the government and gave those to the State Department. Then she had the drive wiped.

There are, however, technical processes that might be able to recover whatever was on the drive.

In the new motion, Klayman “respectfully moves the court for an order of immediate seizure of property or attachment pursuant to Rule 64 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, an expedited entry and production of tangible things pursuant to FRCP Rule 34(a)(1)(B).”

“Plaintiff asks that a neutral forensic expert be ordered here, as the court’s expert, to take custody and control of the private email server and reconstruct and preserve the official U.S. government records relating to the conduct of U.S. foreign policy during Defendant Secretary Clinton’s term,” he wrote.

“The private computer file server is an instrumentality used to facilitate unlawful activity,” the motion continues. “Like the ‘Special Purpose Entities’ set up by ENRON to hide transactions and liabilities off the books from auditors and shareholders, the Defendants Hillary and Bill Clinton set up their own unusual, independent, private computer email system in their personal mansion. The purpose of the private email server system was to facilitate secretive horse-trading of government actions and favors, negotiations for the sale of U.S. government services, actions, and assets to the highest bidder, and the implementation arraignments of deals struck.”

The motion charges Hillary Clinton’s “private file server would have been used to discuss, negotiate, and arrange … Hillary Clinton’s granting waivers of sanctions on companies doing business with Iran in return for donations to Defendant The Clinton Foundation and disclosing Israeli military plans against Iran in return for donations from enemies of Israel and.or friends or business partners of Iran.”

The motion claims there are 32,000 emails that Hillary Clinton declared “private.”
Those “will show, if they can still be recovered, the predicate acts of the illegal RICO enterprise,” the motion states.

Congress also has expressed a desire to learn the contents of the Clinton emails, which, Klayman alleges, should have been included in searches for pertinent information to several of his Freedom of Information Act requests.

Klayman also filed a request to amend his complaint, with the new document attached.
He explained that it adds “factual allegations” based on “new evidence that has become available since the first complaint was filed.”

Klayman’s complaint explains, “Plaintiff has filed many Freedom of Information Act requests for public records created or held by the U.S. Department of State … which records are of the public interest and importance to the citizens of the United States. … As it has now been revealed, a primary reason that the plaintiff did not receive the records to which the plaintiff is entitled by law is that Defendant Hillary Clinton – upon information and belief together with Cheryl Mills and Defendant Bill Clinton and other

Clinton ‘loyalists’ – set up a private computer file server operating a private, stand-alone electronic mail system.”

It alleges Clinton’s “off the books” plan “concealed from the plaintiff public records to which the plaintiff was entitled to under the FOIA.”

It continues, “Using those concealed communications held on the private email server, upon information and belief, the defendants negotiated, arranged and implemented the sale of influence and access to U.S. government officials and decision-makers and official acts by State and other instrumentalities of the U.S. government in return for gratuitous and illegal payments – bribes – disguised as donations to defendant The Clinton Foundation and extraordinarily high speaking fees paid to Defendant Bill Clinton and Defendant Hillary Clinton.”

It has been reported many times the millions of dollars that have been paid to the Clintons for speaking fees, and Klayman’s case estimates the Clintons have “amassed a personal fortune (outside of The Clinton Foundation) of over $105 million” from those fees.

The case charges, “defendants have misappropriated – that is, stolen – the documents which are U.S. government property under relevant records management and archive laws governing U.S. government officials.”

Klayman pointed out that Hillary Clinton “lied to the lower court” in affirming that there were “no responsive documents” to his information requests, because the private email server was not searched.

“The concealment of approximately 62,490 emails to and from the secretary of state directly harmed the plaintiff in the availability of the most relevant and the most important records of State,” Klayman wrote, adding, “Hillary Clinton destroyed the email records after many congressional subpoenas and a flurry of FOIA requests from various requesters, including plaintiff, had already been issued.”

The case seeks orders for production of records and other RICO penalties, including $5 million compensatory and $200 million punitive damages.

'An ignorant people cannot be a free people'

Noah Webster

The earliest human records appeared about 3,000 or 4,000 B.C. – Sumerian cuneiform on clay tablets in the Mesopotamian Valley. This was followed by Egyptian hieroglyphics on papyrus, and Chinese characters on bamboo books.

Writing was first an accounting method for scribes to keep track of all the king owned. Then it was used to keep record the the king’s decrees, genealogies and astronomy. Only kings, elites and scribes could read.

The thousands of cuneiform and hieroglyphic characters were not only difficult to learn, commoners and slaves were not allowed to learn them. It was a form of control, as kings wanted people who would blindly obey them, not think for themselves.

America experienced something similar to this prior to the Civil War when southern Democrat states made it a crime to teach slaves to read. Anthropologist Claude Levi Strauss wrote: “Ancient writing’s main function was to facilitate the enslavement of other human beings.”

Kings ruled by honoring and rewarding those who obeyed them and by dishonoring and striking the fear of death into those who did not.

The first well-recorded instance in history of an entire nation ruling itself without a king began when Israel broke away from Egypt’s pharaoh around 1,500 B.C.

When Moses came down Mount Sinai, he not only brought the law, he brought the law in a 22-character alphabet that was so easy to learn the entire nation was able to read the law. Israel is, perhaps, the first instance in history of an entirely literate population.

E.C. Wines wrote in “The Hebrew Republic” (Philadelphia: c1853): “A fundamental principle of the Hebrew government was education; the education of the whole body of the people. … An ignorant people cannot be a free people. Intelligence is essential to liberty. No nation is capable of self-government, which is not educated to understand and appreciate its responsibilities. … Upon this principle Moses proceeded in the framing of his commonwealth. … There is reason to believe, that the ability to read and write was an accomplishment, more generally possessed by the Hebrews, than by any other people of antiquity.”

Wherever there is a king, friends of the king are “more equal,” those not friends with the king are “less equal” and those who are enemies of the king are dead – it is called “treason.”

For Israel’s first four centuries it did not have a king, being ruled instead by the law. The law declared there was no respect of persons in judgment; rich and poor were to be treated the same; male and female made in the image of the Creator; even the stranger living among them was under the same law that they were under.

This was the beginning of the concept of “equality,” as there was no royal family to seek favors from, no superior or inferior class, no caste system. Not only was Israel free, they could maintain their freedom because all could read the law.

Their experiment in self-government was dependent on one thing – the priests teaching the people to read the law. When the priests neglected doing this, everyone did what was right in their own eyes and the country fell into moral chaos. In response, Israel got a totalitarian ruler, King Saul, who a short time later killed most of the priests, with the notable exception of the priest Abiathar escaping to David.

The pattern was clear – for a country to maintain order without a king, there needs to be an educated and moral citizenry.
This was understood during America’s colonial era, where education and morals were a high priority. After independence, large numbers of immigrants arrived in America. The response was to create “common” schools for them.

The “father of American scholarship and education” was Noah Webster, who died May 28, 1843. Noah Webster attended Yale, founded as a Puritan Congregational school, but when the Revolutionary War started, he left for four years to fight. After graduation, Noah Webster became a lawyer and taught in New York.

Dissatisfied with children’s spelling books, he wrote the famous “Blue-Backed Speller,” which sold over one hundred million copies. Early editions had a “Moral Catechism” with rules from the Scriptures.

For generations, American school children learned letters, morality and patriotism from Webster’s spellers, catechisms, history books and his Webster’s Dictionary.
Noah Webster served nine terms in Connecticut’s Legislature and three terms in Massachusetts’ Legislature where he lobbied for funding of public education, arguing the government should: “Discipline our youth in early life in sound maxims of moral, political, and religious duties.”

Noah Webster stated: “Society requires that the education of youth should be watched with the most scrupulous attention. Education, in a great measure, forms the moral characters of men, and morals are the basis of government. Education should therefore be the first care of a legislature … for it is much easier to introduce and establish an effectual system for preserving morals, than to correct by penal statutes the ill effects of a bad system. …”

Webster continued: “The goodness of a heart is of infinitely more consequence to society than an elegance of manners; nor will any superficial accomplishments repair the want of principle in the mind. … The education of youth … lays the foundation on which both law and gospel rest for success.”

Noah Webster stated: “To give children a good education in manners, arts and science, is important; to give them a religious education is indispensable; and an immense responsibility rests on parents and guardians who neglect these duties.”

Noah Webster wrote: “Practical truths in religion, in morals, and in all civil and social concerns, ought to be among the first and most prominent objects of instruction. … Without religious and moral principles deeply impressed on the mind, and controlling the whole conduct, science and literature will not make men what the laws of God require them to be; and without both kinds of knowledge, citizens can not enjoy the blessings which they seek.”

Noah Webster wrote in “On the Education of Youth in America,” printed in Webster’s American Magazine, 1788: “In some countries the common people are not permitted to read the Bible at all. In ours, it is as common as a newspaper and in schools is read with nearly the same degree of respect. … Select passages of Scripture … may be read in schools, to great advantage. … My wish is not to see the Bible excluded from schools but to see it used as a system of religion and morality.”

In “Advice to the Young,” included in his “History of the United States,” 1832, Noah Webster wrote: “The brief exposition of the Constitution of the United States, will unfold to young persons the principles of republican government … that the genuine source of correct republican principles is the Bible, particularly the New Testament or the Christian religion. … Republican government loses half of its value, where the moral and social duties are imperfectly understood, or negligently practiced…”

Noah Webster added: “To exterminate our popular vices is a work of far more importance to the character and happiness of our citizens than any other improvements in our system of education.”

Noah Webster wrote in “The History of the United States,” 1832: “All the miseries and evils which men suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery and war, proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts contained in the Bible.”
Noah Webster wrote: “Moral evils constitute or produce most of the miseries of mankind and these may be prevented or avoided. Be it remembered then that disobedience to God’s law, or sin is the procuring cause of almost all the sufferings of mankind. God has so formed the moral system of this world, that a conformity to His will by men produces peace, prosperity and happiness; and disobedience to His will or laws inevitably produces misery. If men are wretched, it is because they reject the government of God, and seek temporary good in that which certainly produces evil.”

Noah Webster published his translation of the Holy Bible in 1833, stating: “The Bible is the chief moral cause of all that is ‘good’, and the best corrector of all that is ‘evil,’ in human society; the ‘best’ book for regulating the temporal concerns of men, and the ‘only book’ that can serve as an infallible guide to future felicity.”

In “Letters to a Young Gentleman Commencing His Education” (New Haven, 1823), Noah Webster wrote: “It is alleged by men of loose principles … that religion and morality are not necessary or important qualifications for political stations. But the Scriptures teach a different doctrine. They direct that rulers should be men who rule in the fear of God, able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness. … And it is to the neglect of this rule of conduct in our citizens, that we must ascribe the multiplied frauds, breeches of trust, peculations and embezzlements of public property which astonish even ourselves; which tarnish the character of our country; which disgrace a republican government; and which will tend to reconcile men to monarchs in other countries and even our own.”

Noah Webster wrote: “Men may devise and adopt new forms of government; they may amend old forms, repair breaches, and punish violators of the constitution; but there is, there can be, no effectual remedy, but obedience to the divine law.”

In his 1834 work titled “Value of the Bible and Excellence of the Christian Religion,” Noah Webster wrote: “The Bible must be considered as the great source of all the truths by which men are to be guided in government, as well as in all social transactions. … The Bible (is) the instrument of all reformation in morals and religion.”

In the preface of his “American Dictionary of the English Language,” republished 1841, Noah Webster wrote: “If the language can be improved in regularity, so as to be more easily acquired by our own citizens and by foreigners, and thus be rendered a more useful instrument for the propagation of science, arts, civilization and Christianity.”
