FAILED DNC CHIEF KEEPS ON FAILING: Embrace Gun Control, Wasserman Schultz Shrieks at Democrats

By Institute for Legislative Action

At the Florida Democratic Party Convention, held October 30-November 1, Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz claimed, “The Florida Democratic Party is back and better than ever.” Also back, it would seem, is the national party’s misguided emphasis on gun control.

Speaking at a convention event held at the Walt Disney World Yacht and Beach Club Resort, Wasserman Schultz launched into an anti-gun screed aimed at getting members of her party to more fervently pursue gun control. According to the Orlando Sentinel, Wasserman Schultz demanded, “Democrats! We must close the gun show loophole! Democrats! We must require background checks for all gun purchases!” Indulging her penchant for hyperbole, Wasserman Schultz added, “We can’t sit idly by and allow thousands and thousands of lives to be mowed down!”

"US Debt Is Three Times More Than You Think" Warns Former Chief U.S. Accountant

By Tyler Durden

In a shocking admission for most of mainstream America, the former U.S. comptroller general says the real U.S. debt is closer to about $65 trillion than the oft-cited figure of $18 trillion, thanks to unfunded liabilities which simply cannot be ignored. As The Hill reports, unless economic growth accelerates, he warns, "you’re not going to be able to provide the kind of social safety net that we need in this country," adding unequivocially that Americans have "lost touch with reality" when it comes to spending. As The Hill reports:

RUBIO GETS NEW BILLIONAIRE BACKER: Paul Singer a Major Supporter of Open Borders and Amnesty

By Julia Hahn

Hedge-fund billionaire Paul Singer’s decision to throw his financial weight behind the donor-class 2016 favorite, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), has sparked fresh questions about Rubio’s coziness with the financial interests funding his career.

Singer was a major financial force behind the Rubio-Obama amnesty and immigration expansion push in 2013.

SCANDAL: Secret IRS Policies Conceal ID Theft from Victims, Allow Illegal Aliens to "Borrow" Your Identity

Yet another reason to impeach IRS Commissioner John Koskinen: Bob Segall of WTHR television in Indianapolis reports:

Risking their jobs to come forward, whistleblowers [showed] how the IRS is a knowing accomplice to millions of cases of identity theft while keeping victims in the dark.

...Within a massive federal agency that claims to be taking identity theft seriously, the reality – in many cases – is very different... "We are not supposed to do anything." said a whistleblower. "We are not allowed to say anything."

CONTEMPT: Hillary Clinton Lied Under Oath Repeatedly During Her "Successful" Benghazi Testimony

Writing at the Washington Free Beacon, Daniel Bassali offers an excellent summary of Hillary Clinton's literally contemptible testimony before the House Select Committee on Benghazi.

Clinton [asserted that] 95 percent of her emails were already stored on the State Department’s server because she emailed government accounts, which are automatically stored—unlike her own private account. When asked by Chairman Trey Gowdy (R., S.C.) where she obtained this fact, which she mentioned numerous times in her testimony, Clinton cited the State Department. The following day, spokesman Mark Toner said the State Department did not provide that figure. An Inspector General report released in March said only 0.00006 percent of all emails were properly archived on State Department servers.

SCHUMER CONFIRMS: Marco Rubio was “totally committed” to 2013 Obama-La Raza Amnesty bill

By Julia Hahn

Presumptive Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Chuck Schumer, tells CNN that Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) was “not only totally committed” to the Obama-backed 2013 immigration expansion bill, but that “his fingerprints are all over that bill.”

The La Raza-backed Rubio-Schumer immigration bill would have granted amnesty to the illegal alien population and would have expanded immigration levels beyond all known historical precedent— issuing 33 million new immigrants on green cards in the span of a single decade, permanently transforming the U.S. electorate and economy. Every immigrant with a green card could in turn bring relatives to the United States, collect welfare, and eventually vote and thus cancel out conservative ballots.

Palestinian Terror Group Rips Senator Ted Cruz for Calling it Palestinian Terror Group

By Israel Hayom

The Palestine Liberation Organization on Thursday criticized Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz over a Senate hearing he oversaw on Palestinian and Iranian terrorism that it called "biased and inflammatory."

In an unusually harsh statement issued Thursday, the PLO said the Judiciary subcommittee hearing provided no Palestinian viewpoint and conflated all Palestinians with terrorists. The PLO expressed alarm at what it said was a growing trend in the United States to "dehumanize" Palestinians.

A CRY FROM GERMANY: The Unfolding Destruction of Europe

Spotted in the comments section at Moonbattery ("Congressman Acknowledges Unfolding Destruction of Western Civilization"):

A Female Physician in Munich, Germany sends a message to the world: Yesterday, at the hospital we had a meeting about how the situation here and at the other Munich hospitals is unsustainable. Clinics cannot handle emergencies, so they are starting to send everything to the hospitals.

Many Muslims are refusing treatment by female staff and, we, women, are refusing to go among those animals, especially from Africa. Relations between the staff and migrants are going from bad to worse. Since last weekend, migrants going to the hospitals must be accompanied by police with K-9 units.

ENCANTADOR!: As President, Marco Rubio Says He Intends to Preserve Lawless Obama Executive Amnesty

By Julia Hahn

In recent days, Republican presidential candidates have slammed donor-class favorite Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) for his support of Obama’s 2012 executive amnesty for DREAMers, or illegal aliens who came to the United States as minors.

The executive action, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), provides recipients with work permits, tax credits, and access to federal entitlement programs.

On Tuesday, Donald Trump declared, “Marco Rubio would keep Barack Obama’s executive order on amnesty intact… Cannot be President.”

OBAMACARE: The Gift That Keeps on Taking

By Jim Quinn

Isn’t it interesting that the mainstream media offers barely a peep about the ongoing and worsening Obamacare debacle?

Healthcare premiums, co-pays and deductibles are soaring, while doctor and plan choices contract to a minuscule level. Recent surveys reveal the hardship being inflicted upon families across the nation. Those who are willfully baffled by the lack of consumer spending need look no further than Obamacare and its impact on the budgets of hard working Americans.

The Most Devious Liars in History

By Jim Quinn

There were a few different stories coming out over the last few days that reveal the true nature of government and the apparatchiks who use disinformation, devious machinations, fraudulent accounting, and taxpayer money to cover up their criminality, lies, and the true state of the American economy. The use of government accounting tricks to obscure the truth about our dire financial straits is designed to keep the masses sedated and confused.

A few weeks ago, to great fanfare from the fawning faux journalists who never question any Washington D.C. propaganda, they announced the lowest annual deficit of Obama’s reign of error.

California Knife Attacker Identified as Militant Quaker Extremist

I'm just guessing the religion of the knife-wielding attacker -- who stabbed multiple innocents at UC Merced -- based upon his name.

The UC Merced student who wounded four people in a stabbing spree at the campus has been identified as Faisal Mohammad, a[n 18 year-old] freshman student from Santa Clara...

...Mohammad was shot and killed by UC Merced police just after 8 a.m. on Wednesday morning as he ran from the two-story classroom building where investigators said his violent spree began ...

STICK A FORK IN EUROPE: It’s Done

By Karl Denninger

Let me explain what you're not seeing reported about the European situation right here, right now.

There are millions of immigrants coming into the EU.  Germany alone has apparently taken in close to 800,000.  The story being sold to the population is that these are just people from a war-ravaged part of the world seeking a better life.  The first part may be true, the rest is bunk.  There are, on some weekends, over ten thousand migrants coming over one border (Hungary) alone and virtually none have an interest in remaining there.  They are all concentrating in the places where they believe the handouts (not opportunity) will be greatest.

But that is not the bad part.

One Chart on Federal "Anti-Poverty" Programs Says It All

By Angela Rachidi

This graphic was created by staff from the House Ways and Means Committee to represent the 80+ federal benefit programs and services for low-income people in the United States.

House Ways and Means Human Resources Subcommittee, November 3, 2015.

It was unveiled at a hearing yesterday on better coordinating welfare programs for families in need before the House Ways and Means Subcommittee on Human Resources.

Immigration Apocalypse Now

By Arnold Ahlert

A newly-leaked memo from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reveals the Obama administration is seeking to sidestep a federal court injunction that suspended portions of the president’s amnesty-based initiatives known as Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA) and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). In short, Obama is determined to impose his transformational agenda on the nation by any means necessary.
 
According to the Hill, the document outlining the administration’s attempt to thumb its nose at the rule of law was prepared at a DHS “Regulations Retreat” last June, four months after a preliminary injunction was initially imposed by Texas Judge Andrew Hanen and subsequently left in place by a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The Fifth Circuit's final ruling on that injunction, either confirming or reversing it, is expected to occur in a matter of days.

CRUZ TO DOJ: Preserve Every Record Related to the IRS Scandal, Eh, For the Next Administration. Or Else.

This is why we love us some Ted Cruz.

Yesterday, Cruz sent a letter to Attorney General Loretta Lynch suggesting that it would be in the administration's best interests to preserve all IRS records for the next administration. The request came after the DOJ covered up closed its investigation into political targeting of conservative and pro-Israel groups by the IRS.

November 2, 2015

Dear Attorney General Lynch:

I write today to strongly urge you, as head of the Department of Justice, to take specific steps to ensure that the Department preserves all of its Internal Revenue Service-related documents and information indefinitely. This Administration’s recent announcement that it does not intend to conduct or allow an appropriate criminal investigation of the IRS’s targeting of Tea Party and other conservative organizations has finally made it abundantly clear that the responsibility of ensuring a thorough, fair, and impartial investigation of IRS employees and their potential criminal conduct will fall to the next presidential administration, and relevant materials must be protected accordingly.

HARSH: Obama Official Who Pled Guilty to Espionage Gets... $250 Fine

By Richard Pollock

Glenn Woodell, a NASA supervisor who pled guilty to violating U.S. espionage laws involving a Chinese NASA contractor was given a slap on the wrist with six months’ probation and a $250 fine, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

Daniel Jobson, a Woodell colleague and fellow NASA supervisor, had his espionage charges reduced to a misdemeanor and was released without any penalty.

The lenient plea deals were quietly delivered October 26 in U.S. District Court in Newport News, Virginia. The U.S. Attorneys office did not to issue a press release about the deals and declined comment when contacted by the DCNF.

Woodell was charged under Title 18 of the nation’s espionage laws and faced a maximum penalty of one-year imprisonment and a fine of $100,000.

“It’s like a traffic ticket or something for littering,” commented former U.S. Rep. Frank Wolf in an interview with the DCNF. A former Virginia Republican congressman who was chairman of a House appropriations oversight subcommittee for NASA, worked to expose Bo Jiang, the Chinese NASA contractor at the heart of the espionage case.

Bizarro President

By Caroline Glick

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s meeting with US President Barack Obama next week is likely to look less like a rapprochement than a showdown at the OK Corral.

The flurry of spy stories spinning around in recent weeks makes clear that US-Israel relations remain in crisis.

Two weeks ago, The Wall Street Journal published a fairly detailed account of the US’s massive spying operations against Israel between 2010 and 2012.

Their purpose was to prevent Israel from attacking Iran’s nuclear installations. The Journal report, which was based on US sources, also detailed the evasion tactics the Obama administration employed to try to hide its covert nuclear talks with Iran from Israel. According to the report, the administration was infuriated that through its spy operations against Iran, Israel discovered the talks and the government asked the White House to tell it what was going on.

Over the past several days, the Israeli media have reported the Israeli side of the US spying story.

Radical 80-Year Old Israeli Woman Terrorist Interferes with Innocent Palestinian's Knife-Wielding Practice

By Daniel Greenfield

Another one of Kerry's frustrated oppressed "Palestinians" went on a stabbing spree in Israel. The 19-year-old terrorist stabbed an 80-year-old Israeli woman. She is in serious condition. The terrorist stabbed two others as well.

The crowd attempted to attack the terrorist, but were held back by the police. A local Rishon Letzion politician named Yitzchak Avshalom has managed to get himself in every news story by bragging that he helped protect the terrorist from angry residents. I'm not sure how he's planning to run on that, but there have been worse political platforms than protecting terrorists. I just can't think of any.

OBAMA’S MASS RELEASE OF FELONS: How many more Americans will be killed or maimed as a result?

Writing at Conservative Review, the consistently excellent Daniel Horowitz offers a concise summary of the outrageous behavior of the Obama administration as it pertains to criminal illegal aliens.

There seems to be a grievance group that has successfully attracted the attention of all or a portion of the political class for any perceived injustice under the sun.  But why is it that nobody in the political class finds a need to act with urgency to protect American lives from violent illegal aliens?  Why are American victims of violence from illegal aliens the only group that garners no attention from the media or politicians?
