SCORCHED EARTH FOR A GENERATION: President Hillary and the End of the Second Amendment

By Wayne LaPierre

“Only Eight Years of President Hillary Can Take the Supreme Court Away From Conservatives”

That headline on the Daily Beast website succinctly lays out the devastating threat to our liberty that defines the coming November elections—demanding that we as NRA members mobilize as never before.

You can bet that a Hillary Clinton Supreme Court will make sure to carry out her threat to “take back the Second Amendment” and that the protections of the First Amendment on free assembly and free speech—as exercised to perfection by NRA members—will be erased.

That entire progressive agenda is in danger if they “don’t get a lock on the White House and pack the bench for a generation.”

AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH: The Democrats's Phony Gun Violence "Epidemic"

By Richard Larsen

On the first day of the year, President Obama declared that he could “no longer sit around and do nothing about the epidemic of gun violence” in this country. The New York Times in December published a front-page editorial titled “End the Gun Epidemic in America.” But do we really have an “epidemic,” and at what point does hyperbole damage rational debate and resolution?

To illustrate how hyperbolic the notion of “epidemic of gun violence” is, let’s look at what real epidemics look like. Typhus, which spread throughout Europe during the Thirty Years War in the 1600s claimed over 10 million lives. It resurfaced during the 20th century, and caused several million deaths during WWI in Eastern Europe.

The Fed's Nightmare Scenario Is Rapidly Becoming Reality

By Peter Schiff

Operating under the mistaken belief that a modest dose of inflation is either a prerequisite for, or a by-product of, economic growth, the nation’s top economists have been assuring us for quite some time that inflation will stay very low until the currently mediocre economy finally catches fire. As a result, they believe that the low inflation of the past few months has frustrated Federal Reserve policy makers, who have been supposedly chomping at the bit to keep hiking rates in order to restore confidence in the present and to build the ability to cut rates in the future if the nation were to ever, god forbid, enter another recession.

OBAMACARE: A Naked Plot to Bankrupt America

By Cliff Kincaid

One topic of conversation in the Republican race for the White House has been whether President Obama has been incompetent, or actually knows what he’s doing. On the matter of Obama’s Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, commonly known as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Obamacare, self-declared socialist Professor Gerald Friedman seems to agree with conservatives that it can’t and won’t work. Friedman, a supporter of Senator Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) “Medicare for All” single-payer plan, says that Obama and his advisers knew that the ACA was a “bad idea” that would not control costs, and that a total federal takeover of the health care system was inevitable.

The problem with a federal takeover of health care is that it would bankrupt the U.S., leading to left-wing demands for even more federal control. This is how socialism is coming to America.

MARK LEVIN: It's Time for Marco Rubio to Stop Lying

By Mark R. Levin

A little while back, I argued that Marco Rubio's tactics in attacking Ted Cruz's Senate record on immigration and national defense, among other things, were Alinskyite.  They were and still are simply and demonstrably dishonest.  Yet he persists, knowing full well that by the time the truth catches up with him, if ever, the damage will have been done.  More recently, Rubio and his campaign team have intensified and broadened their Alinskyite tactics, now focusing on the ultimate personal smear -- that Ted Cruz is a serial liar.  Even in this, Rubio is not original.  Of course, Donald Trump has been calling his opponents liars as an almost Tourette's-like response against anyone who reminds him of his past but recent support for leftists and leftist causes, some of whom and which he still embraces. 

But Rubio's smears are part of a more deliberative and unrelenting propaganda campaign. They are now at the core of his campaign effort to dislodge Cruz and clear the field against Trump.

PRESIDENTIAL HISTORIAN CRAIG SHIRLEY: The Fall of the House of Bush

By Craig Shirley

That plummeting sound you hear is the fall of the House of Bush. Unfortunately for the family, it is not falling silently into the woods and there are plenty of people to hear it and witness it and, in time, kick over the dead embers of Bushism.

With Jeb Bush’s dismal loss in South Carolina comes the end of the Bush dynasty, which given the rise of President George HW Bush in 1980 (and even before with Senator Prescott Bush) as Ronald Reagan’s running mate, and later two presidencies, it lasted well over 30 years. Only the Adams’s, the Roosevelts, and the Kennedys could make the same claim as goes political dynasties

NATION'S IMMIGRATION OFFICERS: Rubio Betrayed Us... and America

By Julia Hahn

In an exclusive Q&A with Breitbart News, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Council President Chris Crane provides never-before-heard details about the 2013 Gang of Eight immigration fight that are likely to shake up an already tumultuous presidential race.

ICE Council President, Crane represents the nation’s approximately 5,800 frontline ICE officers, agents and personnel who are responsible for enforcing America’s immigration laws in all 50 states and U.S. territories. For the first time ever, Crane details his behind-the-scenes interactions with Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) as Crane sought to protect the nation’s ICE officers and national security.

Crane was integral to stopping Sen. Rubio’s amnesty plan from passing the House—which, as Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) recently explained, “was a near-run thing.”

In his responses, Crane addresses an incident—first detailed by Breitbart News— in which Marco Rubio stood idly by as Crane was ejected from a Gang of Eight press conference for trying to ask a question on behalf of law enforcement.

AN OPEN LETTER TO TED CRUZ: It's Obama, Stupid

By Dan Friedman

Dear Senator Cruz:

Whatever your strategy has been up until now, your problem is conventional political wisdom, which is always conventional but too often unwise. The reflexive response advocated by your "campaign professionals" to tilt at every canard that's aimed at you is worse than a waste of time, it's falling into the trap they have set for you. Unfortunately, the way things work nowadays, every public riposte only sells your competitors' product. Frankly, that’s a hack PR approach to politics.

Just look at the results of yesterday's South Carolina primary. The "establishment" has found their stalking horse - destroyer of hopes and ambitions - and Rubio is going to be breathing down your neck until the nominating convention.

Senator, this is the moment to turn your ship around and head to calmer waters and more productive fishing grounds.

Our nation and our world has suffered under almost 8 years of Obama's oppressive regime. If there's anything approaching a common denominator among Americans, it's that Obama has been a catastrophic failure - and anyone who doesn’t agree will never vote for you under any circumstances.

It's time you built your campaign around the simple idea that you are the only candidate in the race with the principles, political skills and intellectual depth to retrace Obama's steps, roll back his damage, put the genie back in the bottle and get America back on track again.

Senator, you need to reposition yourself. The hour is late, but not too late to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Please start today.

Sincerely,

Dan Friedman

TRULY PATHETIC: Marco Rubio Caught in Numerous, Obvious Lies While Attacking Breitbart.com

Marco Rubio spent the morning on Fox News ripping into the highly-trafficked Breitbart website for its exclusive interview with ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) Council President Chris Crane.

In the article ("On Eve of SC Vote, Nation's ICE Officers Detail Rubio's Betrayal"), Crane illustrates Rubio's sellout of the American people to the open borders crowd, including the government of Mexico, Chuck Schumer, La Raza, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Crane's descriptions depict the Beltway insider virus at its very worst.

So you'll never guess how Rubio responded to Crane's incredibly accurate description of Rubio's treasonous activities.

AN AFFRONT TO THE CONSTITUTION: The Government Agency From Hell, the "Consumer Financial Protection Bureau"

By Alden Abbott

A little-known federal government agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, imposes enormous costs on consumers and financial service providers through costly and unwarranted command-and-control regulation.

What’s more, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau runs afoul of the constitutionally mandated separation of powers. Thus, both economic and constitutional concerns indicate that it is time for Congress to abolish the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and reallocate those of its functions that merit being retained to other existing federal regulatory agencies.

Message to the GOPe from a fed-up grassroots voter

By Michelle Malkin

A reader named Dave in Montana asked me for help yesterday trying to get a message to the RNC and GOP ruling elite. I promised I would do what I could to make sure they saw his words.

I know there are many who feel the same way about the Republican leadership gone wobbly.

Here’s his email:

OH, MY: Ted Cruz Takes Lead in Major National Poll

Please: no one tell Mr. Trump. He'll freak out, turn orange, and accuse the pollsters of lying.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has surpassed Donald Trump for the top spot in a new national survey of the Republican presidential race from NBC News/Wall Street Journal.

Cruz leads the poll with the support of 28 percent of those surveyed, followed by Trump at 26 percent, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio at 17 percent, Ohio Gov. John Kasich at 11 percent, and Ben Carson at 10 percent.

Trump dropped seven percentage points since last month, and hit his lowest point in the NBC/WSJ poll since October 2015 when Carson took the top spot. Cruz and Kasich each gained eight percentage points since January, the largest improvement of any candidate, and received their highest level of support ever in the poll.

"When you see a number this different, it means you might be right on top of a shift in the campaign," said Bill McInturff, who conducted the survey with a Democratic pollster on behalf of Hart Research Associates, to NBC.

This is just a single poll, to be sure. But one can only hope and pray that a man grounded in the Constitution since his youth can attain the presidency.

Say your prayers, my friends.

MARK LEVIN: Trump Sounds Like a "Radical Kook", Cuts Military Families to the Core with his "9/11 Truther Crap"

From The Mark Levin Show, 15 February 2016:

I watched that debate Saturday night. It was a disgrace. It was a disgrace. First of all, because that bum who is the chairman of the RNC -- I've been calling for his resignation since whenever -- packed that audience with his fat-cat donors and hangers-on and consultants and all the rest. There were times I couldn't even hear Ted Cruz's answer or Donald Trump's answer because they were being booed. Have you ever heard or seen that before? That's your 'Rinse' Priebus. That's your 'Rinse' Priebus...

NUMBERS USA: All of the Presidential Candidates' Report Cards on Immigration and Amnesty

Numbers USA is the nation's largest grassroots immigration-reduction organization, which was founded as a result of two national commissions, including President Clinton's Task Force on Population and Consumption.

NUSA issues Worker-Protection Immigration Grade Cards for each of the presidential candidates.

Could I have a Trump sandwich with a side of Soros, please?

By Anonymous

Donald Trump has attacked Ted Cruz roughly a billion times over the last week for having taken out loans from Citibank and Goldman Sachs. Like most everything Trump says, his attacks are short on facts and even shorter on sense. He claims somehow that Cruz attempted to hide the loans, even though he openly disclosed them on public filings (just not the right ones).

On the other hand, Trump definitely can be bought and he most certainly does owe large amounts of money to some rather suspicious and nefarious people.

Deranged Central Bankers are Blowing Up the World

By Jim Quinn

It is now self-evident to any sentient being (excludes CNBC shills, Wall Street shyster economists, and Keynesian loving politicians) the mountainous level of unpayable global debt is about to crash down like an avalanche upon hundreds of millions of willfully ignorant citizens who trusted their politician leaders and the central bankers who created the debt out of thin air. McKinsey produced a report last year showing the world had added $57 trillion of debt between 2008 and the 2nd quarter of 2014, with global debt to GDP reaching 286%.

THE ROAD TO WORLD WAR III: Turkey Enters the War in Syria as Saudi Jets Arrive

By Tyler Durden

Reports indicate the Turkish army has crossed the border into Syria.

"The Syrian government says Turkish forces were believed to be among 100 gunmen it said entered Syria on Saturday accompanied by 12 pick-up trucks mounted with heavy machine guns, in an ongoing supply operation to insurgents fighting Damascus," Reuters reports. "The operation of supplying ammunition and weapons is continuing via the Bab al-Salama crossing to the Syrian area of Azaz," the Assad government says.

Meanwhile, since all that would take to unleash a full-blown war is for some Russian to be unexpectedly blown up, events like this do not inspire much confidence in the Syrian "ceasefire":

RUBIO ON UNIVISION: In Spanish, Marco Pledges to Keep Obama's Executive Amnesty In Place

By Julia Hahn

In a little-noticed interview late last year with Univision’s Jorge Ramos, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) declared that, as President, he would keep Barack Obama’s executive amnesty for DREAMers in place until it was permanently codified through legislation.

Rubio said, in part:

TIME FOR SOME PAYBACK: In 2007, Chuckie Schumer Called For Blocking All Bush Supreme Court Nominations

By Blake Neff

During a Sunday morning appearance on ABC’s “This Week,” Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer decried the intent of many Senate Republicans to prevent President Barack Obama from appointing the successor to deceased Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.

But less than a decade ago, Schumer advocated doing the same exact thing if any additional Supreme Court vacancies opened under former President George W. Bush.

Almost immediately after Scalia’s death was announced Saturday evening, Republican lawmakers and presidential candidates began arguing the appointment of his successor should be left to the next president. Schumer lamented this outlook as pure obstructionism.
