Obama-Hater Angelina Jolie Explodes, Utterly Humiliates Obama for the Whole World to See
Obama-Hater Angelina Jolie Explodes, Utterly Humiliates Obama for the Whole World to See:
"During an appearance before the U.K.’s House of Lords on Tuesday, Hollywood actress and human rights advocate Angelina Jolie spoke out about how Islamic State group militants use sexual violence as a means to perpetuate terrorism — and about how we need strong leadership (unlike that of President Barack Obama) to overcome this threat.
Jolie’s excoriating speech laid bare just how anemic and pitiful Obama’s response to ISIS has been, and how ISIS is being allowed to build a society based on rape, violence, and of course Shariah law."

Starving college students: Sacramento State latest public university to open campus food pantry
Starving college students: Sacramento State latest public university to open campus food pantry - The College Fix:
"Estimates put number of campus food pantries at 200 and growing
SACRAMENTO – Students living on ramen at California State University Sacramento have been thrown a lifeline – the student government recently opened a pantry on campus that offers food, beverages and toiletries to any student, no questions asked.
“We just want to make sure that every student who has a need has somewhere to go,” said Jake Eres, the pantry’s coordinator, adding it’s confidential to prevent any stigma students may face for seeking help.
The pantry was prompted by what’s called “food insecurity” by campus leaders.
A student, for whatever reason, does not have regular access to adequate or healthy meals.
It’s a situation that may affect up to 10 percent of students – on a campus the size of Sacramento State, that could be as many as 2,900 people facing hunger on a daily basis, campus leaders say.
...And Sacramento State is not alone. According to an April 2015 report in The Wall Street Journal, food pantries began to appear on college campuses after the 2007 recession hit, and today more than 200 U.S. colleges, mostly public institutions, have one..."

There Are No Words To Describe Men Like This WWII Veteran
There Are No Words To Describe Men Like This WWII Veteran - World War Wings:
"Lets Spread The Word And Keep These Stories Alive As Long As We Can
William Yepes is one of those resilient men who fought hard during World War II and lived to tell about it.
Not only that, he’ll tell you some stories at the tender age of 91 and you don’t want to miss it. Enlisting in 1943 at the age of 21, he was assigned to Queen Mary, a B-17 he’d be in for all of his 28 missions.
With that much exposure to bombing raids, he’s more than lucky to have come back.
During World War II, an astounding 24,000 airmen lost their lives in B-17s alone.
The story you’re about to hear was made possible by the Liberty Foundation.
Based in Claremore, Ok, this foundation have the famous Memphis Belle on their tarmac, although it is important to mention it is not the original World War II Memphis Belle.
It is however the same B-17 that played the Memphis Belle in the 90s movie by the same name.
The most fantastic fact about this whole experience is that William Yepes did fly alongside the crew that operated the original Memphis Belle.
Now that’s a story worth sharing!"

Ted Cruz: ‘People Will Die’ if Iran Deal Passes | TheBlaze.com
Ted Cruz: ‘People Will Die’ if Iran Deal Passes | TheBlaze.com:
"Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz flatly warned Wednesday that ”people will die” if the Iran deal passes.
“People will die,” Cruz said during a rally against the deal on Capitol Hill. “Americans will die. Israelis will die. Europeans will die. Osama bin Laden never had $100 billion. He was filled with bilious hatred and, using rudimentary tools, murdered 3,000 Americans.”
But Cruz said the deal grants Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, “a theocratical homicidal maniac who hates America every bit as much as bin Laden did,” more than $100 billion as a result of the deal."

Feds spend $371,538 to study health effects of ‘microaggressions’ on bisexual women
Feds spend $371,538 to study health effects of ‘microaggressions’ on bisexual women - EAGnews.org:
"DEKALB, Ill. – Despite a $18.3 trillion federal debt, U.S. taxpayers are paying for research to determine the health effects of so-called “microaggressions” on bisexual women.
“The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between microaggressions and mental health among racially diverse bisexual women,” Wendy Bostwick, associate professor of nursing and health studies at Northern Illinois University tells the Northern Star.
“I am also one of the first people to ever get an (National Institutes of Health) grant to specifically look at the mental health of bisexual identified women.”
NIH will be paying $371,538 for Bostwick to conduct the study, which will consist of analyzing 125 women from the Chicago area.
“Study participants will fill out a survey each day for 28 days. Questions will include whether they experienced microaggressions that day, as well as questions about substance abuse, moods and other life factors,” NIU Today reports.
The Northern Star describes “microaggressions” as “comments, slights or insults that are related to an aspect of someone’s identity and occur in daily life” that are related to one’s “gender, race or ethnicity.”
...According to NIU Today, “The NIH recognizes the importance of Bostwick’s work” because of the $371,538 to fund the study."

Paid Obamacare Enrollment Declines Once Again
Paid Obamacare Enrollment Declines Once Again | Somewhat Reasonable:
"The number of Americans insured by Obamacare health care plans nationally dropped to less than 10 million at the start of this summer, according to figures from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
As of June 30, just 9.9 million people were paying for coverage they purchased through government-run Obamacare health insurance marketplaces, or “exchanges,” the federal government revealed this week.
The decline is similar to a drop in enrollments seen last year, which was the first year in which people had the option to purchase the restrictive Obamacare health insurance, said to be more limited than Medicare or Medicaid.
The new totals are down from the 10.2 million “paying Obamacare customers” reported as of late March.
A total of 11.7 million people signed up for coverage as of February, when open enrollment in the plans ended for this year."

Brilliant!-----Trump calls on CNN to donate debate money to veterans
"Donald Trump is putting his mouth where CNN’s money is, demanding that all profits from the broadcast of next week’s GOP debate go to veterans.
Following news that CNN has been capitalizing on Trump-mania by raising ad prices for the Sept. 16 debate to 40 times their normal rate, the GOP front-runner sent a letter to the news network’s president, Jeff Zucker, to insist that he share the wealth.
“While I refuse to brag,” Trump writes, “this tremendous increase in viewer interest and advertising is due 100% to ‘Donald J. Trump..."
