Obama Sets Terrorist Loose From Gitmo who Vowed to Kill Americans if Released

Michael Cantrell o say President Obama is incompetent on foreign policy and national security would be an understatement of near biblical proportions. There’s plenty of evidence to prove this is more than just overhyped rhetoric, like how he released a terrorist from Gitmo who vowed that if released, he’d go on a killing spree of Americans. The fail is strong with this one. via WZ: It’s quite clear, at least to me, that our president could give a rat’s you-know-what about keeping us all safe. He’s all about pushing the progressive agenda and transforming America into a socialist utopia. Nothing… View Article

Banksters Win Again – “Audit the Fed” Bill Fails in the Senate

Michael Krieger When it comes to the Fed, Congress is mired in hypocrisy. The anti-regulation, de-regulation crowd on Capitol Hill shuts its mouth when it comes to the most powerful regulators of all – you and the Federal Reserve. Meanwhile, Congress goes along with the out-of-control, private government of the Fed—unaccountable to the national legislature. Moreover, your massive monetary injections scarcely led to any jobs on the ground, other than stock and bond processors. – From the post: Ralph Nader Destroys the Federal Reserve in Open Letter – Calls it “Out of Control, Private Government” Rand Paul’s signature “Audit the Fed” legislation… View Article

Full text of US cell phone kill-switch policy to remain under lock and key. by David Kravets The Supreme Court is setting aside a petition from the Electronic Privacy Information Center that demanded the Department of Homeland Security release the US government’s secret plan to shutter mobile phone service during disasters.

That court held that the government could withhold the plan’s contents under the Freedom of Information Act if its disclosure would “endanger”… View Article

Fact Check: Top 10 Lies in Obama’s State of the Union

by Joel B. Pollak President Barack Obama promised his final State of the Union address would be short. Dana Bash of CNN called it “low-energy.” One thing it was not was accurate–or honest. Here are Obama’s top ten lies, in chronological order. 1. “[W]e’ve done all this while cutting our deficits by almost three-quarters.” This is pure fiction. Obama has doubled the national debt, and it’s not because he cut the deficit. Rather, he spent staggering amounts of money in his first months in office–which he assigns, dishonestly, to the previous fiscal year, under George W. Bush. He “cut” (i.e. spent more… View Article

Obama’s State of the Union Climate Nonsense, Debunked

by James Delingpole13 Jan 2016169 President Obama’s final State of the Union address was full of nonsense, especially on the matter closest to his heart — energy and the environment.

If you put enough swill in the trough, Mr. President, the piggies will come… View Article

Chicago Gun Violence in 2016 Already Worse Than This Time Last Year

Obama: Yeah, Immigration Does Cut Wages For Americans

by Neil Munro President Barack Obama grudgingly admitted Tuesday night that mass-immigration does reduce Americans’ wages. The admission came in the final year of his eight-year tenure, during which a huge inflow of low-wage workers — who doubles as taxpayer-funded consumers — has kept Americans’ wages flat, but the stock market running hot. The final official text of his Jan. 12 State of the Union speech said “Immigrants aren’t the reason wages haven’t gone up enough; those decisions are made in the boardrooms that too often put quarterly earnings over long-term returns.” But he departed from the text, and actually… View Article
