SHOCKER: CNN resorts to its usual #fakenews hackery on Florida gun laws

By William Teach

In some areas, such as Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, California, New Jerse and New York, there are are draconian gun restrictions. Heavily burdensome. Yet, interestingly, there are a lot of crimes that occur there that involve the use of guns. But, hey, CNN:

You don’t need a permit or license to buy a gun in Florida. (And you don’t have to register your gun either)

When Susie Met Comey

By Lloyd Billingsley

January 20, 2017 was inauguration day for President Donald Trump and the last day on the job for national security advisor Susan Rice. At 12:15 p.m. that day, Rice sent herself an email about a January 5 meeting with POTUS 44, FBI boss James Comey, deputy attorney general Sally Yates, and vice president Joe Biden. 

In this meeting, Rice wrote, “The president stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book.” From a national security perspective, however, the president “said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia.”

NEW YORK TIMES 1936: Eva Braun stuns, fascinates at Berlin Olympics

By The People's Cube

BERLIN, GERMANY - Eva Braun's charm and beauty stand out in the Munich games. Everywhere she goes, she is attended by mobs of admiring and curious reporters. Photographers jostle against each other, eager to get a shot of Eva's sphinx like smile or get a picture that does justice to her cleverly subdued use of makeup or simple yet sophisticated hair style.

Normally, Eva lives her life in Hitler's shadow, but today she stands out as Germany's perfect emissary of peace for our time and hope for the future. "She shows Hitler's softer side," said one reporter. "People may be too focused on Hitler's bold speeches, or his military buildup violating the controversial Treaty of Versailles, but Eva shows us he's warm and very human, too."

What Democrats' bleatings about "national security" are really hiding

By Daniel Greenfield

Before the Nunes memo was released, Democrats, the media and its intelligence sources insisted that it would undermine national security, reveal tradecraft secrets and even get agents killed.

Senator Cory Booker warned that it might be treasonously "endangering fellow Americans in the intelligence community." It was, but not in the way that he meant. The memo didn’t have anything resembling classified information it. Neither did the Grassley-Graham criminal referral which was heavily redacted to screen out all the “classified information.” What did the classified information consist of?

LIKE RATS FROM A SINKING SHIP: Comey vs. Rice Edition

For your consideration, a letter from the Senate Judiciary Committee to one Susan "Benghazi" Rice. Perhaps this pathetic attempt was Rice's own form of an 'insurance policy'.

Dear Ambassador Rice:

        The Senate Judiciary Committee has a constitutional duty to conduct oversight of the FBI
and the broader Department of Justice. Part of that duty involves ensuring that law enforcement
efforts are conducted without improper political influence. Accordingly, the Committee has
been investigating the FBI' s relationship with Christopher Steele during the time his work was
funded by Hillary for America and the Democratic National Committee, as well as the FBI's
reliance on his unverified third-hand allegations in the Bureau' s representations to courts.

        As part of that effort, the Committee sent a request to the National Archives for records
of meetings between President Obama and then-FBI Director Corney regarding the FBI's
investigation of allegations of collusion between associates of Mr. Trump and the Russian
government. In response, the Committee received classified and unclassified versions of an
email you sent to yourself on January 20, 2017 - President Trump' s inauguration day. If the
timestamp is correct, you sent this email to yourself at 12: 15pm, presumably a very short time
before you departed the White House for the last time.

Obama Knew; Obama’s Coup

By Matthew Vadum

Former President Obama wanted “to know everything” the FBI was doing in its investigation into claims that Russia was interfering in the 2016 election, a new report suggests, raising the specter of a sitting president becoming involved in a plot to rig the 2016 election.

It was a year ago the outlines of a Watergate-like conspiracy emerged in which a term-limited Democrat president used the privacy-invading apparatus of the state to spy on a Republican presidential candidate. Watergate differed in that President Nixon didn’t get involved in the plot against the Democratic National Committee until later as an accomplice after the fact.

ENDGAME: The Top 4 Clinton Dossier "Coincidences"

By Chuck Ross

At least four separate coincidences have emerged as the public learns more information about the unverified Steele dossier and how it was crafted.

The origin story of the 35-page document was pretty simple at the outset. Fusion GPS, which was investigating then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, hired former British spy Christopher Steele to write the dossier.

But as more details about the dossier trickle out into the public forum, connections have surfaced that raise questions about how information made its way into the salacious document.

Here are the four most significant “coincidences.”
