March 19th marked the 5th anniversary of the first African-American President unilaterally, and without provocation, ordering the U.S. “Shock and Awe” bombing the crap out of his African brothers and sisters in the sovereign North African nation of Libya. Not only that, he did so without even bothering to go to Congress and, at least, lie to them like his predecessor President George W. Bush did with his own “Shock and Awe” bombing of Iraq 8 years earlier. Just a few days after the bombing of Libya I spoke about it with Joyce Riley, host of the popular nationally syndicated radio show The Power Hour. See here. The horrific destruction and loss of life and order in Libya ...

MORE than half of French voters want their own in-out referendum on European Union (EU) membership, renewing fears in Brussels that a Brexit could topple the 28-country bloc. 53 per cent of the French voted in favour of holding a referendum on the country’s membership With Britons set to go to the polls in June, there are increasing signs the UK’s referendum is paving the way for other European countries to question their own relationship with Brussels. It comes after calls for Germany to have their own EU referendum in the aftermath of the migrant crisis. In a fresh blow to the EU, 53 per cent of the French voted in favour of holding a UK-style referendum on the ...

With high symbolism Russian President Vladimir Putin is visiting Crimea “to check on the construction of the Kerch Strait Bridge, which will link the Crimean peninsula and continental Russia,” the Kremlin announced on Thursday. As the Russians like to say, “It is no accident” that he chose today – marking the second anniversary of Russia’s annexation of Crimea three weeks after the U.S.-sponsored coup in Kiev on Feb. 22, 2014, and just days after a referendum in which Crimean voters approved leaving Ukraine and rejoining Russia by a 96 percent majority. Russian President Vladimir Putin addresses a crowd on May 9, 2014, celebrating the 69th anniversary of ...
What’s Up With the Ides of March?

This weekend and the following week marks a triple anniversary: on March 19, 2011, the US and its European and Middle Eastern allies launched an assault on Libya that resulted in hundreds of deaths, and the complete destruction of that country as a viable political entity. The “mainstream” media isn’t breathing a word of this, lest it causes us to remember that it was Hillary Clinton who ginned up this disaster. Also, on March 24, 1999, the NATO alliance, led by the United States, began bombing the former Yugoslavia, a conflict that resulted in the creation of Kosovo, a gangster state run by criminals who have been credibly charged with trafficking in human organs and whose ...
GOP Discusses “Nuclear Option” in Closed-Door Meeting

GOP Discusses “Nuclear Option” in Closed-Door Meeting Screen Shot 2016-03-17 at 3.50.10 PM It’s been a while since the days of Ralph Nader and Ross Perot but we might actually have a third party candidate this year. According to Politico, three conservative leaders of the increasingly desperate #nevertrump movement are discussing the nuclear option, a third party candidate. The more votes Cruz and Kasich split, the better for Trump. The fact that many voters continue to support and vote for John Kasich despite the fact that he has been mathematically eliminated is spreading despair to some conservatives in the party base. At this point Ted Cruz would need full support ...
Comrade Michael Rubin Demands the Gulag for Col. Wilkerson

As a committed and unapologetic neocon, Michael Rubin loves the idea of the old purges once common practice under his ideological forebears in the Soviet Union. The details of the infraction were unimportant – and to even consider the need for details once the Party has spoken was to court suspicion. So Comrade Rubin is demanding a thorough denunciation of Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief-of-staff to Secretary of State Colin Powell (and academic advisor to the Ron Paul Institute). Rubin took to the website of his luxurious neocon Beltway sinecure, the American Enterprise Institute, to call for Wilkerson’s deportation to the gulag for severe ideological deviationism. What ...

Bernie Sanders: Sheriff Joe Arpaio ‘Ambushed’ My Wife The two had an encounter at Arpaio’s “Tent City” jail this week. 03/18/2016 02:40 pm ET by Sam Levine Associate Politics Editor, The Huffington Post Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) accused Joe Arpaio, the controversial sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona, who has been viciously tough on undocumented immigrants, of ambushing his wife earlier this week. The Democratic presidential candidate’s wife, Jane, visited Arpaio’s “Tent City” jail on Monday to highlight the inhumane conditions of the facility and to meet with undocumented families there. While she was there, a reporter told her Arpaio ...

Putin Shuns Syrian ‘Quagmire’

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s abrupt announcement that Russia would begin “the withdrawal of the main part” (???) of its military “contingent” (???) from Syria has been widely seen not only as a welcome surprise, but also as a hopeful fillip to serious negotiations to end the carnage in what is left of that beleaguered country. As always, a modicum of skepticism is warranted the “morning after,” but the pledge to pull out the bulk of the Russian force seems genuine and, at this writing, the withdrawal is already under way. Putin’s announcement appears to mark the beginning of the end of Russia’s key but limited military intervention – ...

Did Glenn Beck Really Just Compare Donald Trump to This Genocidal Maniac? Donald Trump has gotten the ire of many liberals (those who aren’t voting for him), but one conservative more then any, has been bothered by Mr. Trump more than all liberals and conservatives combined, Glenn Beck. Mr. Beck’s latest comments on ABC were disturbing at best, as he tried to compare Mr. Trump to an infamous historical figure according to The Blaze: Glenn Beck on Sunday compared Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump to the Adolf Hiter of 1929, the charismatic politician who rose to power before the Holocaust on “anger” and “nationalism.” Appearing on ABC’s ...

Friday evening’s Donald Trump rally in Chicago was broken up by a foul-mouthed mob that infiltrated the hall and forced the cancelation of the event to prevent violence and bloodshed. Brownshirt tactics worked. The mob, triumphant, rejoiced. And the reaction of Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, and John Kasich? All three Republican rivals blamed—Donald Trump. With his “dangerous style of leadership,” Trump stokes this anger, mewed Rubio, “This is what happens when a leading presidential candidate goes around feeding into a narrative of bitterness and anger and frustration.” Rubio implies that if Trump doesn’t tone down his remarks to pacify the rabble, he will ...

Wow Ron Paul Drops A TRUTHBOMB About Donald Trump And Hillary!! It looks like famed libertarian hero and perennial presidential candidate Ron Paul is no big fan of Donald Trump. That’s why he said this on CNN about him: Wow. Ron Paul had the same anti-establishment sentiment that Trump seems to be capitalizing on, but his libertarian ideology must recoil at the big government solutions the Donald puts forth. Trump wants to expand Medicare, and he doesn’t detail at all how he would bring down the debt, or decrease the size of government. And he’s given out many signs that he would vastly increase the power of the executive at the expense of the Constitutional checks and ...

The GOP debate has put everything on the table Everyone expected another street brawl, but the Republican presidential debate was … well, presidential. The issues were actually discussed and debated, and foreign policy came to the forefront early on. When Social Security came up, three of the candidates said we needed to make cuts, raise the retirement age, and declared the system was inevitably going bankrupt, Donald Trump was the only one to dissent. He said he would leave the system as it is, and went into his usual song-and-dance about cutting “waste, fraud, and abuse.” When called on it by Dana Bash – who pointed out that experts estimate waste accounts for about ...

Breaking: 1 Presidential Candidate Just Changed Their Position On An Assault Rifle Ban Screen Shot 2016-03-04 at 5.02.12 PM The ever loathsome assault rifle is something liberals love to hate. If you listen to them they would say the assault rifle is the most dangerous thing on the planet, that’s why they want them banned so badly. What you might not have known is up until a few days ago Donald Trump supported a ban on assault rifles. Now, not so much. Politico notes that one of those “flips” was reversing position on his prior support for banning the civilian ownership of common semi-automatic rifles and pistols that Trump and his fellow Democrats have long demonized as ...

Racists see an opportunity in his candidacy. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has no shortage of fans in the white nationalist community. WASHINGTON -- The gathering on the eighth-floor rotunda of the federal government’s Ronald Reagan Building looked, at first glance, like any other Saturday-evening D.C. cocktail party. But this was no ordinary affair. The 50 or so people in the room were there for the winter conference of the National Policy Institute, a nonprofit think tank based in Arlington, Virginia. On its website, NPI describes itself as a group “dedicated to the heritage, identity, and future of people of European descent in the United States.” In ...
Trump’s Startling Threat to House Speaker Paul Ryan

Trump’s Startling Threat to House Speaker Paul Ryan Donald Trump is a feather ruffler; there’s no doubt about that. He says what he thinks, and he’s not afraid of what the consequences may be. That’s part of the reason why voters like him so much. They’re tired of the average politician who calculates each and every word for maximum persuasion and political correctness. Trump doesn’t bend over, worry about political correctness, or kiss any of the establishment members rings, and that makes him a stand out candidate for a lot of voters. He does still go a little too far every once in a while though. His most recent misstep involves Republican House Speaker ...

A Lesson for Trump in Bulger's Rejected Appeal Jeff Jacoby | Mar 10, 2016 THE US COURT of Appeals last week upheld the conviction of James "Whitey" Bulger, the infamous South Boston gangster and serial murderer now serving two life sentences at a penitentiary in Florida. The three-judge panel unanimously rejected Bulger's claim that his trial was unfair because he wasn't allowed to tell the jury that a top prosecutor had long ago promised him immunity for any crimes he might commit, up to and including murder. Bulger provided no evidence that he had been granted any such immunity, and the federal official who supposedly authorized it died in 2009. But evidence ...

Ron Paul says coming collapse of U.S. empire will set the stage for a freedom revolution Posted on March 10, 2016 by Personal Liberty News Desk collapse1213_image Former Congressman Ron Paul said during a recent speech that the U.S. empire is closer to collapse than most people want to believe. But, Paul added, that’s a good thing. Paul told attendees at an event hosted by the Ludwig von Mises Institute in Texas that America, just like every other empire throughout human history, is collapsing from within. “I believe… what our contention has to be right now is what is happening to our country from within,” he said. “And actually it’s very encouraging. ...

Yes, he remains thin-skinned and easily riled. But his fearlessness and brash energy also seem necessary and rare I’m dying for an update from you on Donald Trump. Last summer you called him “not a president” and a “carnival barker.” Do you still feel the same? If you loved Trump, would Salon even let you proclaim it? I mean, they’re kind of as liberal as they come, no? Why can’t there be a party that is basically Republican, but minus the religion, minus the legislating of morality, and that cares about climate change/overpopulation? Could Trump be that guy?

Bush and Obama ran roughshod over Madisonian checks and balances, but there's still time to restore them. An op-ed in Tuesday’s New York Times points out that, thanks to precedents set by President Obama, “whoever prevails in November will inherit a sweeping power to use lethal force against suspected terrorists and militants, including Americans.” Let me put things more starkly: Under current precedent, the commander in chief can give a secret order to kill an American citizen with a drone strike without charges or trial. Should Donald Trump have that power? The ACLU’s Jameel Jaffer and Brett Max Kaufman don’t think so, and propose several specific ...

The “truth” about Bill Clinton’s affairs and alleged affairs would “destroy” Hillary Clinton’s political career, declares Paula Jones, the former Arkansas state employee who sued President Clinton for sexual harassment. Jones made the statements in an interview with Breitbart senior investigative reporter and Jerusalem bureau chief Aaron Klein. The interview aired on Tuesday exclusively on Breitbart News Daily, the radio program hosted by Breitbart News Executive Chairman Stephen K. Bannon. Klein asked Jones whether she believes female voters should be concerned about the allegations that Hillary was complicit in covering up her husband’s ill treatment ...

Republican realism needs a leader—not just a president. Rand Paul’s campaign for the White House ended with a fifth-place finish in Iowa. But Senator Paul has a more important job than running for president, and the conclusion of his presidential bid lets him get back to it. He does, of course, represent the people of Kentucky in the United States Senate. But he represents something else as well: the best foreign-policy traditions of the Republican Party. However ill-starred his presidential effort, he remains the country’s most widely recognized conservative realist. And before he or anyone like him can become president, Rand Paul will have to help his party reform. That ...

Caitlyn Jenner Just Endorsed this GOP Candidate – the Left Erupts With Hatred Before transitioning to become Caitlyn, Bruce Jenner had been a lifelong Republican. Apparently changing your gender doesn’t mean that you have to change your political beliefs. Jenner announced recently that Ted Cruz is the candidate she finds most appealing. “I like Ted Cruz,” Jenner told The Advocate. “I think he’s very conservative, and a great constitutionalist, and a very articulate man. I haven’t endorsed him or anything like that. But I also think, he’s an evangelical Christian, and probably one of the worst ones when it comes to trans issues.” Jenner’s ...

Former Rep. Ron Paul is lashing out at Ted Cruz, calling the GOP presidential contender too close to Wall Street. “People are liking Cruz. They think he’s for the free market, and he’s owned by Goldman Sachs,” the former Texas lawmaker said on Fox Business Network’s “Varney & Company,” according to Politico. “I mean, he and [Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton] have more in common than we would have with either Cruz or [Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump] or any of them so I just don’t think there is much picking,” Paul added. Ron Paul also praised Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders. ...

Promoting the American Way of War in Campaign 2016 The crowd that gathered in an airplane hangar in the desert roared with excitement when the man on stage vowed to murder women and children. It was just another Donald Trump campaign event, and the candidate had affirmed his previously made pledge not only to kill terrorists but to “take out” their family members, too. Outrageous as that might sound, it hardly distinguished Trump from most of his Republican rivals, fiercely competing over who will commit the worst war crimes if elected. All the chilling claims about who will preside over more killings of innocents in distant lands — and the thunderous applause that meets ...
