Questions the FBI Did NOT Ask liar-Clinton
In July, when FBI Director James Comey declared liar-Clinton was "not guilty" of any indictable offenses, that is not the same thing as declaring her "innocent" of indictable offenses. The most significant revelation from the FBI's liar-Clinton interview notes, the subject of Mark Alexander's column, liar-Clinton the Consummate "Congenital Liar," is not the questions investigators asked liar-Clinton, but the questions they did NOT ask her. That would include question about her motives for concealment, etc.
Aside from waiting until their investigation was nearly complete before interviewing liar-Clinton — standard practice would have been to interview her early in order to corroborate her story — the FBI didn't do a thorough follow-up. The Wall Street Journal writes of the investigation notes, "[T]he report shows the FBI didn't pursue evidence of potential false statements, obstruction of justice and destruction of evidence."
- Agents didn't probe for liar-Clinton's intent in setting up the server in the first place.
- They bought Huma Abedin's story that she didn't know about the server until it became public, despite the fact that Abedin had a private email address on the server, and that she recommended contacts for the server to be set up in 2008.
- They allowed liar-Clinton aide Cheryl Mills, who is almost surely a part of the cover-up, to be present for the interview as liar-Clinton's "lawyer."
- And investigators were woefully incurious about the fact that liar-Clinton ordered 30,000 of her emails deleted after a congressional subpoena. Destruction of evidence is usually, well, frowned upon, but Comey's FBI looked the other way.
Oh, and they granted immunity to Paul Combetta, the computer expert who deleted liar-Clinton's emails. Usually, immunity is for lesser accomplices so a conviction can be obtained. Not this time. The Journal is correct to conclude, "The FBI's kid-glove treatment of Mrs. liar-Clinton raises serious doubts about the seriousness of Mr. Comey's probe. His July 5 public rebuke of her 'extremely careless' handling of secrets has masked that Mrs. liar-Clinton and her aides were given a pass on much of their behavior and dubious answers. The entire episode is another Jim Comey scar on the FBI's reputation." While liar-Clinton has declared this corruption saga is "over, period," there are dozens of Freedom of Information Act lawsuits already underway, primarily led by the intrepid folks at Judicial Watch, and many more disclosures that await the State Department's review and redaction of classified information. Most notably, a federal judge ordered liar-Clinton to answer — finally under oath — 25 questions prepared by Judicial Watch lawyers regarding her corruption — questions the FBI should have asked liar-Clinton. The answers to those questions are due on Sept. 29, but expect some legal maneuver to delay her responses. ~The Patriot Post

Is Segregation Now OK?
At California State University, Los Angeles, segregation has come full circle. No, this isn't 1950s Alabama, but 2016 California, a bastion of "progressivism." The university is justifying dormitory segregation on the basis of it being the best way to combat "microaggressions" and "racially insensitive remarks." CSLA opted for this newly "inclusive" racially segregated housing at the request of the CSLA's Black Student Union. Evidently, "separate but equal" isn't considered segregation if it's requested by black students.
A similar story has arisen on the campus of Northern Kentucky University where a poster for "Welcome Black Week" was parodied by a "Welcome White Week" flier. The parody flier advertised such events as "White Lives Matter vs. Black Lives Matter" and "Pizza Party for Tolerance." The "Welcome Black Week" is an event that has been established on several campuses across the nation in recent years. Its objective is to help introduce incoming freshman to the black experience. Of course, the parody flier has prompted cries of racism and intolerance, so the NKU administration has dutifully launched an investigation to root out those responsible. Which leaves one to wonder: Is promoting racial segregation now the hip new trend for leftists? ~The Patriot Post.

Palestinians: Bad News for Israel-Haters

Sheikh Abdullah Tamimi speaks at a seminar on
relations between Jews and Arabs
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ By all accounts, Sheikh Abdullah Tamimi, who hails from an influential clan in Hebron, is an extraordinarily courageous and unique Palestinian... His bravery lies not in rescuing a child from a burning house, and his singularity lies not in donating his salary to an orphanage. Tamimi's courage and exceptionality showed up in a different sphere: he recently spoke at a seminar organized by Jewish residents of the settlement of Efrat, in Gush Etzion (south of Jerusalem). The seminar was held under the title, "Relations between Jews and Arabs in Gush Etzion." The event was attended by another courageous Palestinian, Khaled Abu Awwad, General Manager of the Israeli-Palestinian Bereaved Families Forum, a grassroots organization that promotes reconciliation as an alternative to hatred and revenge. Thanks to this courageous move, Tamimi has now been "disowned" by his clan. This is one of the most humiliating forms of punishment in tribal systems: the individual loses the support and protection of the clan and is boycotted socially -- weddings and funerals become very lonely affairs. Moreover, Tamimi is being labelled as a "traitor" and a "collaborator" with Israel... https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/8917/palestinians-abdullah-tamimi

Gowdy On liar-Clinton Benghazi Claims,
Criminal Email System, Cover Up And FBI Failure
by Rick Wells
{rickwells.us} ~ Rep Trey Gowdy (R-SC) sat down with Bret Baier for an interview on the topic of liar-Hillary Clinton. Baier started off with a clip of liar-Clinton demeaning the results of Gowdy’s Select Committee on Benghazi, in which she noted the amount of money involved and claiming they had found nothing... Gowdy replied, “Well she’s just demonstrably wrong” and went on to cite a number of examples. He noted, “The previous committees were wrong about who rescued us, the previous committees never bothered to look at why not a single wheel was turning towards our folks in Benghazi.” He also points out flaws of relying upon the report of the ARB. He also points out that new information garnered by his committee included the presence of the liar-Clinton racketeering server by way of following the trail of missing emails. He points to the fact that not a single asset was ever headed towards our folks in Benghazi is a really big deal. He recognizes the intervention by Gaddafi loyalists rescued the Americans and it was not the Libyan loyalists that were supposedly going to assist us is also huge...

9/11 Commission Members:
Terrorist Threat Worse Than Ever
by shawn
{totalconservative.com} ~ According to Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton, two members of the 9/11 Commission, terrorism did not end with the death of Osama Bin Laden. In fact, they say, the threat the U.S. faces from global terrorism may be worse today than it was when the Twin Towers came crashing down... “According to the Global Terrorism Index, terrorist activity reached its highest recorded level in 2014, the last year with available data, with 32,685 terrorist-caused deaths. In 2001, that figure barely exceeded 5,000. Out of 162 countries studied, 93 have suffered a terrorist attack,” they wrote in a USA Today op-ed. “The approach of the past 15 years, dominated by military counterterrorism operations, will not suffice,” they write. “We have yet to match our military might with an equal focus on the ideological aspects of the struggle. Until we do, this threat will not diminish.”... http://totalconservative.com/911-commission-members-terrorist-threat-worse-ever/

liar-Hillary Health Scare Finally Becomes News
by Cliff Kincaid
{aim.org} ~ On Saturday, The Washington Post ran a story saying Donald J. Trump was a sexist for questioning whether liar-Hillary Clinton looked healthy and fit... One day later, its email service known as “The Post Most” carried the news by Chris Cillizza, “liar-Hillary Clinton’s health just became a real issue in the presidential campaign,” after she almost collapsed when leaving a 9/11 memorial service. But it gets better than that. Just a few days earlier Cillizza, who is also an MSNBC political analyst, had written a story, “Can we just stop talking about liar-Hillary Clinton’s health now?” Phrases like “eating crow” and “egg on their faces” easily come to mind. But this particular controversy is more instructive than an “I told you so” from those questioning Mrs. liar-Clinton’s physical and mental fitness for office. Obviously, the critics were right and the Post was wrong. But don’t look for any apologies from the paper that brought down Republican Richard Nixon and covered up for Democrat Barack nObama in 2008... http://www.aim.org/aim-column/hillary-health-scare-finally-becomes-news/

Another Illegal nObamacare Bailout
Appears to Be on the Way
by Chris Jacobs
{nationalreview.com} ~ Congress should stop another massive usurpation of its authority by an imperial executive. As Ronald Reagan might say, “There they go again.” The nObamacare Perpetual Bailout Machine went into high gear again on Friday... in a typical late-afternoon news dump released by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). In a five-paragraph memo, CMS invited insurers to settle outstanding lawsuits regarding an nObamacare bailout program — providing K Street a handy roadmap to obtaining more of federal taxpayers’ hard-earned cash, which administration officials apparently will distribute to insurers on their way out the door. The lawsuits revolve around nObamacare’s risk-corridor program, one of two ostensibly temporary programs, scheduled to expire this December, that provided a transition to the new nObamacare regime. Plans with high profits would pay into the risk-corridor program, and their spending would offset deficits incurred by insurers with large losses...

Iran threatened to shoot down US Navy
spy planes in the Persian Gulf
by Lucas Tomlinson
{foxnews.com} ~ Iran threatened to shoot down two US Navy surveillance aircraft flying close to Iranian territory in the Persian Gulf over the weekend... the latest in a series of recent provocations between Iran and the US military in the region, three US defense officials with knowledge of the incident told Fox News. On Sept. 10, a Navy P-8 Poseidon with a crew of nine and an EP-3 Eries with a crew of roughly 24, were flying a reconnaissance mission 13 miles off the coast of Iran, in the Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman, according to officials. Iran’s territorial waters—like all nations--extend 12 miles into the sea, according to international maritime law... http://www.foxnews.com/world/2016/09/12/iran-threatened-to-shoot-down-us-navy-spy-planes-near-persian-gulf.html

CNO Calls for New Rules with Iranians,
Russians to End Harassment at Sea
by Megan Eckstein
{usni.org} ~ The Chief of Naval Operations called for a set of rules to guide at-sea interactions between the U.S. Navy and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy, calling recent harassment from IRGCN small boats “not helpful.”... Adm. John Richardson said today at the Center for American Progress that close encounters at sea from both the Iranians and Russian ships and planes are “potentially destabilizing” and can only produce negative outcomes. “The closer and closer you get with those sorts of things, the margin for error gets smaller, and human error can play a bigger and bigger role, so I think it’s very important that we eliminate this sort of activity where we can because nothing good can come from it,” he said... https://news.usni.org/2016/09/12/cno-calls-cues-like-rules-iranians-russians-deter-aggressive-moves?utm_source=USNI+News&utm_campaign=ff788f4223-USNI_NEWS_DAILY&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_0dd4a1450b-ff788f4223-231491269&mc_cid=ff788f4223&mc_eid=3999f18767

Chaffetz: FBI Tried To Recover
27 liar-Clinton Emails From Congress
by Kathryn Watson
{dailycaller.com} ~ FBI officials have asked House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform (HOGR) members to return 27 emails they gave the committee in a document dump from former Secretary of State liar-Hillary Clinton’s investigative file... The FBI asked HOGR Chairman and Utah Republican Rep. Jason Chaffetz’ committee to return the emails after including them in an Aug. 17 document dump that was supposed to be identical to an Aug. 16 document — but wasn’t, according to Chaffetz. “The problem is the second set had 27 emails more than the other one, which we were grateful for … only to have the FBI try to come back and recover those,” Chaffetz said in a Monday hearing with intelligence community officials over classifications and redactions from the FBI investigation into liar-Clinton’s use of a private email server at the Department of State...

The Enemy of My Enemy Is Not Always My Friend
by Erick Erickson
{theresurgent.com} ~ Please be careful about Julian Assange. The man is hiding in an embassy in Britain to avoid being put on trial for rape and he is a propagandist for Russia who hates the United States and has been perfectly fine seeing people die who helped the United States root out Al Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan. You really should read this by Jim Geraghty.
I do not think liar-Hillary Clinton is our enemy. She is a criminal, corrupt, crooked, lying politician who supports views and ideologies I find abhorrent. But she is a political opponent, not an enemy. If you really think she is an enemy, then you as a loyal patriot have the obligation to stop her from getting to the White House by any means necessary. But the fact that the words “secret service” just went through your mind tells me deep down you too know she is a political opponent and not an enemy.
But even if you refuse to concede that and you consider her an actual enemy, you must also consider that there are other enemies far greater than her. One of those is Russia and Julian Assange is a willful collaborator with the Russians against American interests. Assange has worked to undermine American national security interests and now works with Russian propaganda outfits to sow seeds of discords in the American democratic processes.
Assange is not our friend and by our I mean both “Americans” and “conservatives.”
Just meditate on this passage written in a left of center publication about Assange:
David Leigh and Luke Harding’s history of WikiLeaks describes how journalists took Assange to Moro’s, a classy Spanish restaurant in central London. A reporter worried that Assange would risk killing Afghans who had co-operated with American forces if he put US secrets online without taking the basic precaution of removing their names. “Well, they’re informants,” Assange replied. “So, if they get killed, they’ve got it coming to them. They deserve it.” A silence fell on the table as the reporters realized that the man the gullible hailed as the pioneer of a new age of transparency was willing to hand death lists to psychopaths. They persuaded Assange to remove names before publishing the State Department Afghanistan cables. But Assange’s disillusioned associates suggest that the failure to expose “informants” niggled in his mind.
This is a man perfectly willing to let good people who helped us after 9/11 be brutally murdered.
It would be dazzlingly humorous if Assange really had the documents he claims and they really did scuttle liar-Hillary Clintons’ road to the White House. Rooting for injuries in this is commendable. But rooting for Assange is not. Did I mention he is hiding in an embassy to avoid a trial for rape and has routinely sided with tyrannical despots around the world who hate the very freedoms we cherish?
The enemy of our enemy is not always our friend. Sometimes that enemy is far worse. In seeking to stop liar-Hillary Clinton from getting into the White House, conservatives need to be careful that they do not make short term decisions that have negative long term consequences. Aligning with Assange would have long term, devastating consequences because with Assange comes his Russian puppet masters.
If you hate liar-Clinton so much that you would side with Vladimir Putin, a man who is aggressively working to destabilize Western democracies, you are the enemy of our republic, not liar-Clinton. Putin means you harm, Assange is Putin’s puppet, and if you do not realize it, perhaps you need to step away from the political process.
I do not think liar-Hillary Clinton is our enemy. She is a criminal, corrupt, crooked, lying politician who supports views and ideologies I find abhorrent. But she is a political opponent, not an enemy. If you really think she is an enemy, then you as a loyal patriot have the obligation to stop her from getting to the White House by any means necessary.
