Uranium One Means Mueller Must Recuse Himself from Russia Probe | Roger L. Simon

Uranium One Means Mueller Must Recuse Himself from Russia Probe | Roger L. Simon
"At the end of their lengthy editorial regarding the new Uranium One revelations --  "Team Obama's stunning coverup of Russian crimes" -- the New York Post editorial board writes:

Until September 2013, the FBI director was Robert Mueller — who’s now the special counsel probing Russian meddling in the 2016 election. It’s hard to see how he can be trusted in that job unless he explains what he knew about this Obama-era cover-up.

I'll go the Post one better. 

Virtually whatever Mueller has to say about his involvement or non-involvement in this metastasizing scandal, he must recuse himself immediately for the most obvious reasons of propriety and appearance. 

Frankly, it's outrageous that he, Ron Rosenstein, or anyone who even touched the Uranium One investigation now be involved with the current probe -- unless the real name of the FBI is actually the NKVD.  

This is not how a democracy is supposed to work, even remotely.  Forget transparency -- this was deliberate occlusion..."

Virtually no coverage of Obama-Clinton Russian uranium BOMBSHELL

Virtually no coverage of Obama-Clinton Russian uranium BOMBSHELL
WHERE’S THE COVERAGE …

Nothing on CNN … More than 24 hours ago, The Hill reported that the FBI knew of, and was investigating, Russian bribes before the Obama administration approved a deal giving Russians control of a significant portion of U.S. uranium production. 

Not a single word from CNN. 

This happened way back in the early days of the Obama presidency, and investigators were looking into payments made to the Clinton Foundation that may have swayed Hillary Clinton, who was part of the chain of approval of the deal. 

You wouldn’t know that if you watched CNN. 

As of noon today, the only reference to the bombshell report was during live coverage of a hearing involving Senator Jeff Sessions before a Senate committee. 

There have been no produced news reports on the network, according to the TV Eyes Media Monitoring Suite. 

It is a total blackout.

...Nothing on the broadcast networks, either … 

Our friends at NewsBustersshow that there was no coverage of the uranium news on the networks, either. 

They further report that the networks, across all news programming, have spent a whopping total of 181 seconds on the Clinton Foundation scandal. 

That’s huge bias, plain and simple..."

FBI: Over Four Times More People Stabbed to Death Than Killed with Rifles of Any Kind - Breitbart

FBI: Over Four Times More People Stabbed to Death Than Killed with Rifles of Any Kind - Breitbart:

"The FBI Uniform Crime Report (UCR) for 2016 shows more than four times as many people were stabbed to death than were killed with rifles of any kind.
And because the category of rifles covers every type of rifle, this means there would be an even greater divide between the number of people stabbed to death versus those shot to death with an AR-15 or similar rifle."

We've found the worst take on the Harvey Weinstein scandal

We've found the worst take on the Harvey Weinstein scandal:
"We've done it.
We've found the worst response to the growing and increasingly awful Harvey Weinstein sex scandal.
Behold: New York Times opinion columnist Michelle Goldberg, who wrote this week, "The movie business is corrupt, depraved and iniquitous — and still morally superior to the Republican Party under Trump."
Impressive.
She identified a bad thing, and then identified a second bad thing so as to mitigate the sins of the first.
We didn't think we'd see someone from the Times downplay the Hollywood scandal this soon, yet here we are.
"Betraying the principle of gender equality is bad. Rejecting it is worse," Goldberg added.
It's downhill from there, trust us.
The chief argument of Goldberg's piece is that supporters of President Trump have no right attack the film industry over its decades of silence in the face of Weinstein's well-known behavior because the president is actually worse..."

"No Devilishly Effective Plot" - Clinton Chief Strategist Admits "You Can't Buy The Presidency For $100,000" | Zero Hedge

"No Devilishly Effective Plot" - Clinton Chief Strategist Admits "You Can't Buy The Presidency For $100,000" | Zero Hedge:
"Authored by Mark Penn, former chief strategist on Bill Clinton’s 1996 presidential campaign, Hillary Clinton’s 2000 Senate campaign, and Mrs. Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign; via The Wall Street Journal...
Russia didn’t win Trump the White House any more than China re-elected Bill Clinton in 1996.
The fake news about fake news is practically endless.
Americans worried about Russia’s influence in the 2016 election have seized on a handful of Facebook ads—as though there weren’t also three 90-minute debates, two televised party conventions, and $2.4 billion spent on last year’s campaign.
The danger is that bending facts to fit the Russia story line may nudge Washington into needlessly and recklessly regulating the internet and curtailing basic freedoms.

• After an extensive review, Facebook has identified $100,000 of ads that came from accounts associated with Russia. 

Assume for the sake of argument that Vladimir Putin personally authorized this expenditure.
Given its divisive nature, the campaign could be dubbed “From Russia, With Hate”—except it would make for a disappointing James Bond movie.
Analyzing the pattern of expenditures, and doing some back-of-the-envelope math, it’s clear this was no devilishly effective plot. 

• Facebook says 56% of the ads ran after the election, reducing the tally that could have influenced the result to about $44,000. 
• It also turns out the ads were not confined to swing states but also shown in places like New York, California and Texas. Supposing half the ads went to swing states brings the total down to $22,000.
• Facebook also counted ads as early as June 2015. ssuming they were evenly spread and we want only those that ran the year of the election, that knocks it down to $13,000. 
• Most of the ads did not solicit support for a candidate and carried messages on issues like racism, immigration and guns. The actual electioneering then amounts to about $6,500..."

Walter E. Williams: Who Pays What in Taxes? — The Patriot Post

Walter E. Williams: Who Pays What in Taxes? — The Patriot Post:
"Politicians exploit public ignorance.
Few areas of public ignorance provide as many opportunities for political demagoguery as taxation. Today some politicians argue that the rich must pay their fair share and label the proposed changes in tax law as tax cuts for the rich.
Let’s look at who pays what, with an eye toward attempting to answer this question: Are the rich paying their fair share?
According to the latest IRS data, the payment of income taxes is as follows.

• The top 1 percent of income earners, those having an adjusted annual gross income of $480,930 or higher, pay about 39 percent of federal income taxes. That means about 892,000 Americans are stuck with paying 39 percent of all federal taxes. 
• The top 10 percent of income earners, those having an adjusted gross income over $138,031, pay about 70.6 percent of federal income taxes. About 1.7 million Americans, less than 1 percent of our population, pay 70.6 percent of federal income taxes. 

Is that fair, or do you think they should pay more?
By the way, earning $500,000 a year doesn’t make one rich.
It’s not even yacht money.
But the fairness question goes further.

• The bottom 50 percent of income earners, those having an adjusted gross income of $39,275 or less, pay 2.83 percent of federal income taxes. Thirty-seven million tax filers have no tax obligation at all..."

ACLJ Demands Obama-Era Iran Deal Documents on Iran’s Use of Commercial Planes for Jihad | American Center for Law and Justice

ACLJ Demands Obama-Era Iran Deal Documents on Iran’s Use of Commercial Planes for Jihad | American Center for Law and Justice:

"Late last week, the President boldly announced that his Administration will not certify the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), otherwise known as President Obama’s catastrophic Iran Nuclear Deal. In his announcement, President Trump called out the Iranian government for what it is – a “radical regime.”

As we have explained before, the disastrous Iran Deal is even worse than previously thought: “Evidence now surfaces showing the Obama Administration concealed information that Iran—the number one state sponsor of terror—has made it a practice of shipping jihadists on commercial aircraft to Syria in violation of the international laws governing the Iran Nuclear Deal.”"

Team Obama’s stunning cover-up of Russian crimes | New York Post:
"It turns out the Obama administration knew the Russians were engaged in bribery, kickbacks and extortion in order to gain control of US atomic resources — yet still OK’d that 2010 deal to give Moscow control of one-fifth of America’s uranium.
This reeks.
Peter Schweizer got onto part of the scandal in his 2015 book, “Clinton Cash”: the gifts of $145 million to the Clinton Foundation, and the $500,000 fee to Bill for a single speech, by individuals involved in a deal that required Hillary Clinton’s approval.
But now The Hill reports that the FBI in 2009 had collected substantial evidence — eyewitnesses backed by documents — of money-laundering, blackmail and bribery by Russian nuclear officials, all aimed at growing “Vladimir Putin’s atomic-energy business inside the United States” in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
The bureau even flagged the routing of millions from Russian nuclear officials to cutouts and on to Clinton Inc..."

Knowledge and Understanding

By Tammy Derouin

The lack of respect or indifference towards the American flag is beyond sad and upsetting. It shows a much bigger problem which has taken place in our country; lack of knowledge and understanding. Our history is not being taught, as it once was, so even basic knowledge is disappearing. Dates, names and events are being forgotten. As facts disappear, so does the truth.

Far too many individuals no longer seem to understand why we are free or what took place to secure our blessing of liberty. Rights are demanded but they are not understood. With freedom comes responsibility and if we are not responsible, freedom begins to disappear. It is happening right before our eyes. Our rights to speak and assemble are being denied by hate groups. These groups have emerged with an agenda to bully, shout down and or violently attack those who do not share their philosophy. Freedoms and rights are for all American citizens, not just those who speak the loudest or dress in scary costumes. These groups have a right to their opinion; their thoughts and beliefs. They have a right to speak and be heard. They do not have the right to prevent those who do not agree with them from speaking and being heard as well.......

Quick, to the Victim-Mobile! | Trending
"Has someone lit the Victim-signal in the sky? 
For the last several days my Facebook page has been lit up with women “me too-ing” about how they also were harassed and are as victimy, helpless, and deserving as any would-be Hollywood A-lister flung across Harvey Weinstein’s casting couch.
It’s all “I too was harassed” and “being a woman is so terrible” and “no one is safe” and “patriarchy.”
It might be unkind of me, but my first thought – right after, “Really, I didn’t know Bill Clinton’s staff was that big” – was “No, you were not sexually harassed, because the penalties for that are straight-up horrendous unless you happen to be a big-time leftist.  
At worst you were inconvenienced by having a pass made at you by a guy you found unattractive.”
This thought could be wrong and unkind. 
Young and hapless women often allow things to happen to them that are objectively sexual harassment. 
...But in general, that kind of harassment is only a real problem when it’s an industry dominated by very few gatekeepers.  
These industries/professions -- the arts, publishing, filmmaking, politics, etc. -- are almost all dominated by the left..."

Vegas Survivor Who Died Suddenly Had Planned Group to Expose Cover-Up

Vegas Survivor Who Died Suddenly Had Planned Group to Expose Cover-Up
This report was originally published by Adan Salazar at Infowars

A woman who died days after surviving the ill-fated October 1 country music festival in Las Vegas wanted to organize a survivor’s group in order to flesh out the strange event, Facebook conversations reveal.

Kymberley Suchomel, 28, died suddenly on October 9 at her Apple Valley, California, residence five days after posting her version of events to Facebook.

In the days following the massacre, friends reached out to Suchomel over a October 4 post in which she described someone setting off “fire crackers” near the venue, and detailed being chased by numerous people, concluding at one point “There was more than one gun firing. 100% more than one.”

One longtime friend of Suchomel’s, who asked to remain anonymous, provided Infowars with screenshots of a conversation he’d had with her, in which she indicated planning to “organize a group of survivors” in order “to piece things together.”

Labeling NRA Members ‘Terrorists’ Has Unintended Consequences – Glenn Beck

Labeling NRA Members ‘Terrorists’ Has Unintended Consequences – Glenn Beck:

"The simple answer is that government agencies will end up monitoring many innocent people without preventing any tragedies. Recreational hunters and gun aficionados are not terrorists. The desire to buy and own guns does not make a person a psychopath or a murderer. The desire to use weapons to harm and kill other people makes a person a murderer or a psychopath. Labeling the Las Vegas shooter as a terrorist when the only thing that we know for sure about him was that he owned a lot of guns does not make sense. As far as we know, he hadn’t pledged his support to a recognized terrorist group like ISIS or even any domestic white supremacist group. He doesn’t appear to have been a religious man or an ideological one. Authorities are still searching for his motive."
