FOR "WOMEN’S HEALTH": Human Fetus Brains Sold to Labs for Transplantation into Rats

By Steve Watson

One thing is clear from the videos and media that have emerged in this recent scandal – we are not dealing with a one dimension “pro-choice/pro-life” debate. Instead, there is a dark organization inside an industrial complex Americans have not dared to contemplate or uncover. Secret scientific research, genetic engineering, synthetic DNA, vaccines made from human fetal cell tissue… and a host of other uses for human organs, limbs, brains and tissue.

The “ethics” behind closed doors, where doctors and clinics are apparently all too willing to break the rules and allow human experimentation, are projected into the medical system collective that we are all being pushed into. Decisions about the value of human life and how far the State can go in deciding what is best for you are being weighed… your will see it in the hidden costs of Obamacare, where life becomes cheap but the bills for services rendered remain sky high.

While the Planned Parenthood harvesting scandal rumbles on, fewer news items have actually focused on what those who procure aborted fetal tissue and organs are actually doing with it.

Pro life website LifeNews.com sheds some light on this today with a piece that reveals the brains of aborted babies are being transplanted into mice.

The article notes that a recent commentary piece in The Scientist, entitled “When Does a Smart Mouse Become Human?” highlights how researchers at the University of Rochester injected lab mice with glial cells from human fetuses, and discusses the ethical issue of transplanting human cells into animals.

The article states:

QOTD: "Rather than helping the U.S. combat terrorism, as Qaddafi did during his last decade in power, Libya now serves as a safe haven for militias affiliated with both al Qaeda and ISIS.

...The U.N. estimates that 400,000 Libyans have fled their homes. Many of them have fled their country, as recent stories about attempts to enter Italy have highlighted...

...The demise of Qaddafi was a bonanza for anti-American terrorists in an additional respect. By virtue of his overthrow, the former strongman’s arsenal of weapons fell into the hands of terrorists throughout North Africa. Human Rights Watch says that the amount of weapons on the loose in Libya today dwarfs the number in Somalia, Afghanistan, and Iraq. For example, an estimated 15,000 man-portable air defense systems are unaccounted for.

Under Qaddafi, during his last years, Libya aided the U.S. in fighting terrorism. Qaddafi’s intelligence service regularly provided information about Libyan fighters in places like Pakistan, as well as intel about A.Q. Khan, who sold nuclear know-how to our enemies.

Qaddafi’s contributions were such that, in 2009, Gen. William Wood, head of the U.S. African command, called Libya “a top U.S. partner in combating transnational terrorism.”

Thanks to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, Libya, once part of the solution to terrorism, is now a significant part of the problem." --Paul Mirengoff

CHART O’ THE DAY: Sure glad we’re crippling the economy for this "reduction" in global CO2!

The real science deniers are Democrats:
Or, as Ed Morrissey drily captions it, "If you like your electricity, you can keep your electricity."

What I enjoy most about the Obama era is the civility: Prez says GOP supports Iranian "Death to America" Chants

Post-racial, post-partisan healing. It's what I love most about this administration.

I realize that resorting to force may be tempting in the face of the rhetoric and behavior that emanates from parts of Iran. It is offensive. It is incendiary. We do take it seriously. But superpowers should not act impulsively in response to talks… Just because Iranian hardliners chant ‘Death to America” does not mean that that’s what all Iranians believe. In fact, it’s those hardliners that are more satisfied with the status quo. It’s those hardliners chanting “death to America” who’ve been most opposed to the deal. They’re making common cause with the Republican Caucus.

In related news, Iran's leaders openly seek the nuclear annihilation of America, England, and Israel.

And water is wet.

DHS Says ‘Path To Citizenship’ Will Help Fight Homegrown Terror

By Rachel Stoltzfoos

The top U.S. immigration agency told a Senate subcommittee it is working to blunt homegrown terrorism by marketing U.S. citizenship to immigrants.

“In furtherance of DHS’s mission to safeguard the homeland, [United States Citizenship and Immigration Services] is committed to fostering integration and community cohesion,” the agency recently told the Immigration and the National Interest Subcommittee in records obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation.

“USCIS engages and supports partners to welcome immigrants, promote English language learning and education on the rights and responsibilities of citizenship, and encourage U.S. citizenship.”

The subcommittee had pointed to the arrest of Six Somali men on terror-related charges in Minnesota — where a large population of Somali refugees was resettled — as evidence of the threat and then asked whether USCIS can guarantee other communities won’t face similar threats from the thousands of Syrian war refugees that have been settled stateside.

Referring to its efforts to promote citizenship, officials from USCIS made an appeal to nationalism: “These efforts emphasize the role that shared citizenship rights and responsibilities play to unify all Americans.”

The For the Record Questions with USCIS followed an April hearing on the Obama Administration’s plan to grant Central American minors related to illegal immigrants in the U.S. refugee or parole status, and fly them into the country.

Terror Victims’ Lawsuit Seeks to Block Obama’s Gift of $150 Billion to Iran

By Investigative Project on Terrorism

A deal to provide Iran with as much as $150 billion in sanctions relief over its nuclear weapons program should be blocked until the Islamic Republic pays court-awarded damages to American victims of Iranian-sponsored terrorism, a lawsuit filed Wednesday in New York federal court said.

The plaintiffs, victims of attacks by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, have judgments worth $152 million that they have been unable to collect. Similar lawsuits in U.S. courts have generated billions of dollars more in damages. Iran, the lawsuit said, should not see a dime of sanctions relief until those victims are compensated.

By law, the lawsuit said, Iran should not be granted any relief until there is "a certification by the President that Iran is no longer a financier and sponsor of terror. That terrorism condition has not been satisfied."

Even the White House admits that Iran continues to sponsor international terrorism.

The lawsuit, facilitated by Shurat Hadin, or Israel Law Center, names the departments of State and Treasury, along with their respective secretaries, John Kerry and Jacob Lew. The two departments are responsible for enacting and enforcing the sanctions against Iran.

Releasing the frozen Iranian assets strips victims of "their last remaining opportunity to pressure Iran to satisfy their judgments,' the lawsuit said. And it violates terms of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act, passed by Congress in 2002. The law aimed to help victims enforce their judgments by pursuing blocked assets belonging to terror sponsors. It contains the phrase "Notwithstanding any other provision of law," which should prevail over the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, the formal name of the Iran deal, negotiated by the U.S. and the P5+1 allies, the lawsuit said.

QOTD: "As bad as the trafficking in human organs and tissue is. As reprehensible as it is to put women an medical risk by changing the abortion procedure in order to maximize the dollar value of the dead baby. What really strikes one over the course of the videos is the utter callousness of the people involved. The total lack of basic humanity that the alleged medical professionals in this horrible practice exhibit.

We saw Deborah Nucatola calmly talking about revenue based on dead babies who ordering wine and chowing down on a nice, green salad. If you go the 9:45 in today’s video you can hear the staff laughing, that’s right laughing, about how hard their day has been and how they have plenty of dead babies in the freezer...

...What one sees in these videos is not unlike what one saw in the series of war crimes trials visited upon the German military and political classes after World War II. There is a top tier of ideologues who are carrying out an agenda. They could be questioned on the morality of their actions and convince any polygraph examiner in the world that they truly believe they are on the side of the angels. There are a handful of truly malevolent individuals, in the case of abortion this would be the doctors who carry out the procedure. But most of these people, oddly enough nearly all in the video are women, just put their conscience in a lock box, stuff dead babies in the cooler, and go home and fix dinner. That casual cruelty is what makes this series of videos so powerful." --streiff

If Governor John Kasich is on the Republican ticket, Obamacare repeal is off the table

By Jason Hart

Republicans can forget about campaigning against Obamacare in 2016 if Ohio Gov. John Kasich is on the party’s presidential ticket.

Conventional wisdom says Kasich will need to explain his Obamacare Medicaid expansion to Republican primary voters — but he’s been explaining it for two years.

That’s the problem: most of Kasich’s arguments for Medicaid coverage for working-age adults with no kids and no disabilities sound like they were written by Democratic strategists.

The longer Kasich is in the presidential race, the greater the potential for Democrats to capitalize on Kasich’s promotion of Obamacare.

“What we’ve seen as a result of this? Saved lives, there’s no question about it,” Kasich said when asked about Obamacare expansion at an Ohio Chamber of Commerce event.

“Turning down your money back to Montana on an ideological basis when people can lose their lives because they get no help doesn’t make a lot of sense to me,” Kasich growled at an Obamacare skeptic in Montana.

If Kasich is the Republican nominee for president or vice president, expect to see Democratic campaign ads using Kasich’s tortured talking points against Obamacare critics.

In short, Kasich has worked to turn his own primary election problem into a general election problem for every Republican candidate.

Today’s Hillarious Hillary Highlights

Collected from the real-time news portal you may know as BadBlue News. You're welcome, America.

Data point 1:

Uh-Oh: Hillary Losing White Women.. and Every Other Demographic

The Wall Street Journal is sounding the alarm for Team Hillary after the results of a new WSJ/NBC News poll show her losing white women voters and, well, basically every other demographic...

But WSJ notes that that's not the only "worrisome trend" for the Democratic presidential frontrunner. She's also lost many Independents, whose opinion of her has plummeted from an "evenly split" perception earlier this year to now being underwater 27/52. The opinion of Clinton among African-Americans also dropped in the last few months, falling from 81/3 to 66/15.
Data point 2:

All That’s Wrong With Washington in One Picture

By Against Crony Capitalism

I’ve gotten some criticism over the last couple of days for not being hard enough on the Republicans. Trust me: the crony Republicans are full on targets for sure. Long time readers know this. Saying that, here’s a good one from one of the generally good guys in Washington, who happens to be a Republican.

On the other hand it could be worse.

CAPITALISM COMIX: The $70K Minimum Wage

With a tip o' the cap to ZeroHedge:
Meet 31-year-old Dan Price... Dan is the CEO of Seattle-based credit card payments processing firm Gravity Payments, and three months ago, he did a funny thing. After talking with a friend who confessed to having difficulties making student loan payments and rent each month on an annual salary of $40,000, Dan decided to set a $70,000 per year pay floor at Gravity.
Needless to say, the unintended consequences were catastrophic. Employees who earned $70,000 by dint of hard work felt they had been shafted; several quit. Price's friends in the business community were ticked off - he had established what they felt was an unsustainable minimum wage. And his older brother is suing him, presumably because of his, uhm, novel approach to management.

Which led our long-suffering summer intern Biff Spackle (@BiffSpackle) to create this riff on Mr. Price's folly.

FUNNIEST CHART O' THE DAY: Breakdown of Where Bill and Hillary Clinton’s "Charitable" Donations Went

According to their tax returns, it turns out that essentially all of the Clinton family's "charitable donations" were directed back to their own "charities".

As TaxProf notes, the family’s charitable giving from 2007 onward has been a case study in moving money around. Since 2007, the Clintons “made $15 million (10.8 percent of their AGI) of charitable contributions, $14.9 million of which went to the Clinton Family Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative.”

That leaves $100,000 for charitable uses that don’t directly involve the Clinton family and their globalist friends.

As a reminder, in April I created a chart illustrating where the Clinton Global Graft Initiative's various expenditures went. It's equally amusing.

Little wonder Hillary's email server "disappeared".

WELFARE STATE SUCCESS STORY #8,091: More Kids Living In Poverty Now Than During Great Recession

By Nick Sorrentino

A picture from an Indian reservation in South Dakota. American Indians have gotten the rawest deal in America as a group, and the US government has managed their affairs to a large degree since conquering them. So what does that tell you?
This is what happens when government layers regulations on top of regulations. When it makes it very difficult to start businesses. When it encourages government dependence for electoral reasons. (It does. I hate that it does, but it does.) When government rewards companies which partner with politicians with taxpayer money and favors.This is what happens when the people running the show in Washington abandon the spirit of free enterprise, the spirit of freedom, and instead embrace the languid mediocrity of the welfare state.

No child should be hungry. But the welfare state is not the way to keep bellies full. Non-profits need to be empowered, and government and the dependence it creates must be reduced in a real way. (This must be done over time but with tangible and verifiable milestones. Corporate dependence needs to be cut tomorrow however.)

Cue this story in USA Today:

NEW BOOK BY OBAMA’S PARTNER IN PEACE: Denies Holocausts, Calls for Destruction of Israel

By The Tower

A new book by Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei refers to the Holocaust as “a propaganda ploy” and promotes the destruction of Israel as a Jewish state, Iran expert Amir Taheri wrote Saturday for The New York Post.

Taheri wrote that he received a copy of the book, currently available only in Iran, from a friend living there. In the book, Khamenei writes that his plan does not involve a plan to “massacre the Jews” or engage in “classical wars” to destroy Israel. Rather, his goal is to engage Israel in a long period of “low-intensity warfare,” which would prompt most Israeli Jews to leave for the safety of other countries.

Khamenei boasts about the success of his plans to make life impossible for Israelis through terror attacks from Lebanon and Gaza. His latest scheme is to recruit “fighters” in the West Bank to set up Hezbollah-style units.

“We have intervened in anti-Israel matters, and it brought victory in the 33-day war by Hezbollah against Israel in 2006 and in the 22-day war between Hamas and Israel in the Gaza Strip,” he boasts.

Khamenei describes Israel as “a cancerous tumor” whose elimination would mean that “the West’s hegemony and threats will be discredited” in the Middle East. In its place, he boasts, “the hegemony of Iran will be promoted.”

Khamenei’s plan would allow Jews with “genuine roots” to remain in Israel as “protected minorities.” At some point, Israel would revert to United Nations control, and a referendum of Palestinians and their descendants and any remaining Jews would be held “to create the new state of Palestine.”

Khamenei wrote that his proposal is not based on anti-Semitism, which he claimed was a European phenomenon, but on “well-established Islamic principles.” One of those principles is that any land that was once under Muslim control – which includes large chunks of Europe, China, and India – can never be ruled by non-Muslims.

John Kasich Has a $14 Billion Obamacare Problem

By Jason Hart, Ohio Watchdog

Ohio Gov. John Kasich’s habit of telling voters “Ohio money” pays for his Obamacare Medicaid expansion is about to catch up to him.

To silence conservative critics, Kasich says Obamacare expansion is bringing $14 billion of Ohio money back to Ohio from the federal government.

But that’s not how the expansion works — a fact Kasich’s opponents in a crowded Republican presidential primary are certain to point out.

There is no vault of “Ohio money” set aside to pay for Kasich’s Obamacare expansion, which has already increased federal welfare spending by $4 billion.

Matt Mayer, president of free-market think tank Opportunity Ohio, expects the governor’s message to fall apart when it’s challenged by other presidential candidates.

QOTD: "The gross federal debt now stands at $18.15 trillion, while current-dollar GDP is lagging behind at $17.665 trillion. The federal debt is now larger than our entire economy, and based on the current trajectory, it will remain that way indefinitely. In fact, precisely because the debt has grown so large relative to the size of the economy – it is unlikely that the economy can ever grow quickly enough to overcome the debt with so much dead weight on its shoulders.

Just 30 years ago, the gross federal debt was only 40% of GDP. Think of it this way: it’s a lot easier to hike five miles in a forest in a timely fashion while carrying a 40-pound rucksack as opposed to a 100-pound one.

So the next time you hear a liberal feign moral outrage over the need to spend more money on entitlement programs and regulatory agencies, ask how that helps the “middle class” when the ensuing creation of debt permanently depresses wage growth and job opportunities." --Daniel Horowitz

NEW COMIC STRIP: The Hilarious Hijinx of Hillary

OBAMA’S BIOGRAPHY: Some Assembly Required

By Lawrence Sellin

Bottom line up front: The political establishment and the media are hiding the greatest fraud and Constitutional crisis in American history to protect a hopelessly corrupt status quo.

They continue the charade while desperately trying to run out the clock on Obama because they know if the full truth about him was ever told, the American people would rise up with uncontainable anger against the permanent political class and their collaborators in the media. The vast majority of the members of our lawless one-party, political-media state would lose their jobs and many would go to prison.

Such a description would go a long way towards explaining why Obama, who never lets facts or logic get in the way of his political agenda, is undeterred by any legal constraints and why the Republican leadership is so submissive and cooperative. There may be subtle policy differences among them, but one thing is palpably clear to the political-media establishment - if he goes down, they all go down.

There is, in fact, no credible evidence that Obama was actually born anywhere.

The official version is that Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961 at Kapiʻolani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii. His mother was Stanley Ann Dunham, born in Wichita, Kansas, and his father, Barack Obama, Sr., from Kenya.

Neither Kapiʻolani nor Queens Medical Center, both in Honolulu, Hawaii have ever confirmed from their hospital records that Obama was born in either hospital.

It is worth noting that Hawaiian law allows the state to issue a certificate of live birth even if the child is born outside of Hawaii, provided that the parents have been legal residents for at least one year immediately preceding the birth. Many of those have been published in Hawaiian newspapers as local births.

At times during his life, Obama designated his birthplace as Kenya, and Joel Gilbert has presented a convincing account that his real father was Frank Marshall Davis, a Communist Party USA member and propagandist.

Who knows? Obama's life is a biographical jigsaw puzzle of poorly-fitting and missing pieces.

Display this one weird bumper sticker and watch liberal heads explode!
