Gregg Jarrett: The scheme from Bruce Ohr and Comey's confederates to clear Clinton, damage Trump | Fox News
Gregg Jarrett: The scheme from Bruce Ohr and Comey's confederates to clear Clinton, damage Trump | Fox News
"Editor's note: This op-ed is based on the author’s book “The Russia Hoax: The Illicit Scheme to Clear Hillary Clinton and Frame Donald Trump.”
Director James Comey knew the FBI was incorruptible.
This is precisely why he seized control of the investigation of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s email practices covering her time as secretary of state, instead of allowing the FBI field office to conduct the probe.
By commandeering control of the investigation, Comey and his confederates could twist the facts and contort the law to dictate the outcome they desired.
Clinton was the beneficiary of what FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe reportedly described as the “HQ special.”
The same is true of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.
The very people who cleared Clinton of crimes – despite strong evidence that she broke the law – also assumed unfettered authority over the so-called “collusion” investigation to determine if Donald Trump’s presidential campaign worked with Russia to help Trump become president..."

Good morning,
Due to heavier than normal ice concentrations in the Canadian arctic waters north of 70 degrees, the Canadian Coast Guard, recommends that pleasure craft do not navigate in the Beaufort Sea, Barrow, Peel Sound, Franklin Strait and Prince Regent. CCG icebreakers cannot safely escort pleasure craft. Operators of pleasure craft considering a northwest passage should also consider the risk of having to winter in a safe haven in the Arctic, or in the case of an emergency, be evacuated from beset vessels. Safety of mariners is our primary concern.
REGARDS,

To confirm that the “heavier than normal ice concentrations” statement was true, I checked Denmark’s Polar Portal site.
Turns out that as of today, 23 Aug 2018, Arctic sea-ice volume for this date is higher than the 2004-2013 average (thick black line vs thick grey line).
Arctic sea-ice volume is also higher for this date than in 2015, 2016 and 2017.
I have a sneaking suspicion that you won’t hear much about this from the mainstream media.
So much for Al Gore’s ice-free Arctic.
Thanks to Lloyd Chandler for this info"

Google-Facebook 'can shift 12 million votes this election' - WND
Google-Facebook 'can shift 12 million votes this election' - WND:A study of how Google and Facebook are manipulating the political views of their users shows the internet tech giants have the power to shift “upwards of 12 million votes” in November’s midterm elections, psychologist Robert Epstein told Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson.
“We should be extremely concerned,” said Epstein. “Content no longer matters. All that matters is the filtering and ordering of content.”

"For one of the most punitive agencies in the federal government, the IRS sure is forgiving with its own employees.
Rep. Kristi Noem, R-S.D., has proposed a bill that would prevent the IRS from rehiring employees fired for misconduct or poor performance.
The bill, titled the Ensuring Integrity in the IRS Workforce Act, follows a recent Treasury inspector general report that shows the IRS rehired more than 200 fired workers in a little over a year.
A previous inspector general report proves this problem dates back to at least 2009.

...the IRS—an agency with nearly unrivaled access to citizens’ personal information and capacity to harass individual taxpayers—rehired:

- An employee who was absent without leave for 270 hours—the equivalent of 33 work days.
- An employee fired for physically threatening co-workers.
- An employee fired for lying about previous criminal convictions on employment forms.

When the World Was Cold: Five Questions for Dagomar Degroot
“The world has already warmed more, relative to mid-20th-century temperature averages, than it cooled in the chilliest stretches of the Little Ice Age,” says Dagomar Degroot, a historian at Georgetown University.
“And there is much more warming to come.”
Yet in his new book, “The Frigid Golden Age,” Degroot argues that the Little Ice Age has a lot to teach present-day societies about coping with climate change.

MasterCard, Visa back down on Freedom Center attack - WND:
David Horowitz’s Freedom Center has announced MasterCard and Visa have backed down from their decision not to accept donations to the conservative organization – a threat Rush Limbaugh believes represents the next big wave of corporate efforts to destroy opposition to the leftist juggernaught dominating technology, media, academia and other powerful cultural and business institutions.
”And after 2 days of meetings with our attorneys I have good news and bad news,” said Horowitz, a former Communist who switched political sides during the Reagan administration, to his supporters. The good news is they’re backing down. The bad news is this is just the beginning of the most brutal battle for the future of our country.”

National Health Crisis! U.S. Rates of Syphilis, Gonorrhea and Chlamydia Soar To The Highest Levels Ever
National Health Crisis! U.S. Rates of Syphilis, Gonorrhea and Chlamydia Soar To The Highest Levels Ever:"America is facing a health nightmare unlike anything that we have ever experienced before. According to the CDC, rates of syphilis, gonorrhea and chlamydia have all skyrocketed to the highest levels on record, and top health professionals are urging coordinated national action to battle this unprecedented crisis.
Even before these latest numbers, the United States had “the highest STD rates in the industrialized world”, and it is becoming exceedingly clear that things are rapidly getting worse.
So exactly what does this say about us as a society?
Sexually-transmitted diseases are spreading like wildfire, and those on the front lines are not optimistic that we will be able to turn this health crisis around any time soon..."

The School Shootings That Weren't : NPR
The School Shootings That Weren't : NPR"How many times per year does a gun go off in an American school?
We should know.
But we don't.
This spring the U.S. Education Department reported that in the 2015-2016 school year, "nearly 240 schools ... reported at least 1 incident involving a school-related shooting."
The number is far higher than most other estimates.
But NPR reached out to every one of those schools repeatedly over the course of three months and found that more than two-thirds of these reported incidents never happened.
Child Trends, a nonpartisan nonprofit research organization, assisted NPR in analyzing data from the government's Civil Rights Data Collection.
We were able to confirm just 11 reported incidents, either directly with schools or through media reports..."

Don’t Typecast Conservatives: They, Too, Respect the Dignity of LGBT Persons | The Heritage Foundation
Don’t Typecast Conservatives: They, Too, Respect the Dignity of LGBT Persons | The Heritage Foundation:
Do you support religious liberty or LGBT individuals? It needn’t be an either–or proposition. Just as many who identify as LGBT hold conservative values, so many religious social conservatives count LGBT individuals among their beloved friends, family, and colleagues. This allows conservatives to take a compassionate, solution-oriented approach to addressing the problems faced by LGBT individuals. Such an approach can negate the need to treat sexual orientation and gender identity as a protected class.

Hispanic Antifa Group in Los Angeles Calls for ‘Revolutionary Violence’ Against America – Eagle Rising
"An Hispanic communist Antifa group is openly calling for violence against Americans urging a “sea of armed masses” to use “revolutionary violence against the enemies of the people” and “take power” from our government.
"An Hispanic communist Antifa group is openly calling for violence against Americans urging a “sea of armed masses” to use “revolutionary violence against the enemies of the people” and “take power” from our government.
According to Debra Hein at PJ Media:
The revolutionary Maoist group Serve the People — Los Angeles (STPLA) made the call during a recent demonstration in South Central Los Angeles, where “dozens of protesters” wearing red bandannas and carrying STPLA flags, banners, and a Trump piñata-effigy “rallied the masses” to demand the release of Gladis Hernandez, an illegal immigrant woman who is being detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).On Sunday, according to the far-left Incendiary News Service, the agitators marched and chanted, “La migra, la policia, la misma porqueria!” (“ICE, the police, the same sh*t!”) and “F*ck ICE! F*ck the pigs!”They set up shop in front of the main entrance to the Banc of California Stadium and passed out fliers about Hernandez’s detention as soccer fans headed into the stadium for the evening’s game. During the demonstration, according to the report, they called for “militant escalations” and for the “defense of their undocumented working-class immigrant communities by any means necessary” The group lit road flares and gave incendiary speeches against the country at their L.A. demonstration. They also chanted foul things at police that gathered to keep things orderly.
BIG problem!-----Coping with the Growing Number of Felons in Michigan – Mackinac Center
Coping with the Growing Number of Felons in Michigan – Mackinac Center:
"The latest available data from the Michigan Department of Corrections indicates that Michigan courts delivered 47,347 felony convictions in 2016.
Because some people received more than one conviction, the total number of people with new felonies is slightly smaller, but tens of thousands of Michigan citizens who did not have a felony record at the end of last year will have one by the end of this year.
...We didn’t add a shocking number of people to our prisons (our prison population is in fact declining and we are slated to close a facility in 2019), but we ended 2016 with about 37,700 more convicted felons in our workforce and communities.
...However, it's important to consider the implications of these statistics for our job market and social fabric, for about 95 percent of those who received a conviction and were incarcerated will eventually be released.

- In about 200 state-licensed occupations, a worker who gets a felony conviction stands to lose his license, even if the nature of the crime is completely unrelated to the nature of his job.
- When licensed (and usually skilled) workers are barred from well-paying jobs, several harms occur. Most obviously, their income may decline and poverty will increase.
- Employers (many of whom already report labor shortages) will suffer from a lack of employees.
- That lack of employees, in turn, can harm consumers.
- We see this in a quiet shortage of housing, which can be blamed in part on a lack of skilled trades workers.
- Felony convictions also create a host of other consequences: They pose barriers to housing and education as well as employment, not to mention create a social stigma.
- Multiply that by tens of thousands of individuals, and what we’re left with isn’t good.
