My brother smoked pot early and often. Took his own life in a state mental institution-----Teenagers who smoke cannabis damage their brains for LIFE and may be more likely to develop schizophrenia
Teenagers who smoke cannabis damage their brains for LIFE and may be more likely to develop schizophrenia | Daily Mail Online:
American researchers say the drug is particularly dangerous for a group of people who have a genetic susceptibility to the mental health disorder - and it could be the trigger for it.
Asaf Keller, of the University of Maryland School of Medicine, said the results highlight the dangers of teenagers smoking cannabis during their formative years.
The study found that even short-term exposure to cannabis impaired brain activity, with the damage continuing into adulthood..."

"Trump’s Luck: Black Lefty Journalist Arrested for Those Anti-Semitic Bomb Threats MSM Blamed on Trump Voters
Statement from The Intercept:
STATEMENT ON THE ARREST OF FORMER INTERCEPT REPORTER JUAN THOMPSON
The Intercept
March 3 2017, 8:28 a.m.
'We were horrified to learn this morning that Juan Thompson, a former employee of The Intercept, has been arrested in connection with bomb threats against the ADL and multiple Jewish Community Centers in addition to cyberstalking. These actions are heinous and should be fully investigated and prosecuted. We have no information about the charges against Thompson other than what is included in the criminal complaint. Thompson worked for The Intercept from November 2014 to January 2016, when he was fired after we discovered that he had fabricated sources and quotes in his articles.'
Trump, of course, was denounced for mentioning the possibility that some of these events could be hate hoaxes.
The phenomenon of Trump’s Luck is that Trump better understands the odds than the MSM, who can’t imagine Hate Hoaxes, because that’s not a respectable category to have in your head."

San Francisco's withdrawal from national terror intelligence network hikes risks, officials say | Fox News
San Francisco's withdrawal from national terror intelligence network hikes risks, officials say | Fox News:
"San Francisco has taken its defiance of the feds to a new level, ending its cooperation with the FBI in an anti-terror initiative begun after 9/11 - a move crtitics say could get innocent people killed.
Critics say the sanctuary city by the bay's latest decision to forego cooperation with Washington, by dropping out of the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force, could put lives at risk. The JTTF has been credited with foiling 93 Islamist terrorist attacks and plots against the U.S. since 2001, including 12 this year, according to the Washington, D.C.-based Heritage Foundation. There are another 1,000 investigations into suspected terror activity nationwide."

Studies of State-funded Tourism Promotion Withstand Criticism
Studies of State-funded Tourism Promotion Withstand Criticism [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:
Publicly funded marketing for tourism is a waste of money
We found, for example, that an additional $1 million in state promotion lifted economic activity in the entire accommodations industry in the average state by just $20,000.
Publicly funded marketing for tourism is a waste of money
"...Mackinac Center for Public Policy’s recent study of state-level tourism promotion that analyzed data from 48 states over 39 years.
...The data showed publicly funded state tourism promotion is not an effective economic development tool.
We found, for example, that an additional $1 million in state promotion lifted economic activity in the entire accommodations industry in the average state by just $20,000.
That’s a negative 98 percent return on investment.
...Taken in proper context, our research still finds that taxpayer-funded tourism promotion is largely a waste of money.
The funds would be better spent elsewhere, such as infrastructure, tax cuts or any number of other important priorities."

first, that Obama’s team tried to get a warrant from a regular, Article III federal court on Trump, and was told no by someone along the way (maybe the FBI), as the evidence was that weak or non-existent; second, Obama’s team then tried to circumvent the federal judiciary’s independent role by trying to mislabel the issue one of “foreign agents,” and tried to obtain a warrant from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act “courts”, and were again turned down, when the court saw Trump named (an extremely rare act of FISA court refusal of the government, suggesting the evidence was truly non-existent against Trump); and so, third, Obama circumvented both the regular command of the FBI and the regularly appointed federal courts, by placing the entire case as a FISA case (and apparently under Sally Yates at DOJ) as a “foreign” case, and then omitted Trump’s name from a surveillance warrant submitted to the FISA court, which the FISA court unwittingly granted"

George W. Bush and Political Stockholm Syndrome - American Greatness
George W. Bush and Political Stockholm Syndrome
“Stockholm Syndrome” is defined as “feelings of trust or affection felt in certain cases of kidnapping or hostage-taking by a victim toward a captor.”
Watching the recent George W. Bush interview with Jimmy Kimmel, is there any greater illustration of this definition on display?
A man so many of the Left in Hollywood had been happy to call “Hitler” just eight years ago, was greeted to a standing ovation and treated to guffaws after all of his lame jokes?
Why?
...After eight years of being a virtual prisoner to the partisan press corps, George W. Bush has proven himself to be suffering from political Stockholm Syndrome.
...Think about it: for 16 years, George W. Bush was the butt of every late night talk show host’s joke.
...Jimmy Kimmel is but one of dozens of comedians who made a living off of lampooning George W. Bush.
Things were said about Bush that anyone else would have deemed as “unforgivable.”
Now, George W. Bush sits beside Kimmel, laughing uncomfortably as Kimmel makes fun of Bush to his face, and piles on President Trump..."

I think I know.
Could it have something to do with this interview with Matt Lauer on the Today Show? When Lauer asked President Bush about the recent row between President Donald J. Trump and the media, President Bush responded:
"I consider the media to be indispensable to democracy. That we need an independent media to hold people like me to account. I mean, power can be very addictive, it can be corrosive, and it’s important for the media to call to account people who abuse their power […] It’s kind of hard to tell others to have an independent press when we’re not willing to have one ourselves."...After eight years of being a virtual prisoner to the partisan press corps, George W.

Chicago style thuggery-----INVESTIGATION REVEALS: Obama channeled billions of dollars to activist groups
INVESTIGATION REVEALS: Obama channeled billions of dollars to activist groups
"A congressional investigation has revealed that the Obama administration channeled billions of dollars to activist groups through a Department of Justice slush fund scheme.
“It’s clear partisan politics played a role in the illicit actions that were made,” Republican Representative John Ratcliffe of Texas told Fox News.
“The DOJ is the last place this should have occurred.”
The House Judiciary Committee discovered a secretive process in which funds were dispersed to a web of nonprofit organizations engaged in grass-roots activism.
“Advocates for big government and progressive power are using the Justice Department to extort money from corporations,” said Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton.
“It’s a shakedown. It’s corrupt, pure and simple.”
The practice is believed to have been widely abused throughout the Obama administration..."

A giant slumber party?
Not quite.
It reveals what the streets of Paris look like now…Footage [was] taken in the Avenue de Flandres, 19th Arrondissement, near the Stalingrad Metro Station in Paris as well as areas in close proximity… Homeless immigrants, undocumented or waiting for a decision of their asylum application, pass the time in the city. Crime and rape is rampant, mass brawls and riots made the news as fights broke out near the Stalingrad metro station.
We knew it was bad after seeing the refugee camp of Calais, plus all the terrorism.
But this shows us just how bad it really is.
European leaders insist on taking in even more migrants, meanwhile France looks like one giant refugee camp..."

Mark Levin to GOP: Investigate Obama's 'Silent Coup' vs. Trump
Mark Levin to GOP: Investigate Obama's 'Silent Coup' vs. Trump:
"In summary: the Obama administration sought, and eventually obtained, authorization to eavesdrop on the Trump campaign; continued monitoring the Trump team even when no evidence of wrongdoing was found; then relaxed the NSA rules to allow evidence to be shared widely within the government, virtually ensuring that the information, including the conversations of private citizens, would be leaked to the media.
Levin called the effort a “silent coup” by the Obama administration and demanded that it be investigated.
In addition, Levin castigated Republicans in Congress for focusing their attention on Trump and Attorney General Sessions rather than Obama."

Breibart has posted a useful timeline with links, as has the Conservative Tree House site.
In his NRO column today, Andrew McCarthy provides this summary of events to date as part of his inquiry into the “recusal” of Attorney General Sessions from something or other this week.
Here is an excerpt:
"While the commentariat was rending its garments over the mere prospect that Trump might have his political adversary, Hillary Clinton, investigated if he won the election, Obama was actually having Trump investigated.
To rehearse briefly, in the weeks prior to June 2016, the FBI did a preliminary investigation, apparently based on concerns about a server at Trump Tower that allegedly had some connection to Russian financial institutions.
Even if there were such a connection, it is not a crime to do business with Russian banks — lots of Americans do.
It should come as no surprise, then, that the FBI found no impropriety and did not proceed with a criminal investigation.
What is surprising, though, is that the case was not closed down..."Even if there were such a connection, it is not a crime to do business with Russian banks — lots of Americans do.

Obama confidante Valerie Jarrett moves in to Kaloroma home | Daily Mail Online:
"Barack Obama is turning his new home in the posh Kalorama section of the nation's capital - just two miles away from the White House - into the nerve center of the mounting insurgency against his successor, President Donald J. Trump.
Obama's goal, according to a close family friend, is to oust Trump from the presidency either by forcing his resignation or through his impeachment.
And Obama is being aided in his political crusade by his longtime consigliere, Valerie Jarrett, who has moved into the 8,200-square-foot, $5.3-million Kaloroma mansion with the former president and Michelle Obama, long time best friends."

What Makes America's New Ford-Class Aircraft Carrier Truly Dangerous
What Makes America's New Ford-Class Aircraft Carrier Truly Dangerous | The National Interest Blog:
"...Slated for springtime delivery, the aircraft carrier CVN 78 Gerald Ford has sparked much interest in its technological breakthroughs for launching and recovering aircraft – as well as new systems to cut down on the number of sailors that run the ship and run up the costs of operating the vessel.
But some of the most important mechanic advancements are deep inside the ship – part of the revamped elevator system used to carry bombs, missiles and other aircraft-loaded equipment from the Ford’s bowels to the vessel’s higher decks.
...Shipbuilders wired the elevator up for more electricity using linear motors, replacing the rope-and-wheel systems that required a great deal more manpower to operate and maintain.
With the new system, shipbuilders say, the elevators can carry two times the weight as the previous system, covering the distance in about third the time.
Increasing the carrying power and cutting the operating speed were key in providing the Ford with the quicker sortie rate that has been one of the ships selling points.
Getting aircraft on and off the ship at a faster clip means little if the aerial platforms are not properly armed or loaded.
Early success with the new elevator system prompted Newport News to start developing a totally electric elevator system..."
