Weasel Zippers

 

Via Baltimore Sun:

What a busy few weeks Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby has had.

She appeared onstage with Prince. Sat down for an interview with Vogue.

And, of course, she made national news by pressing charges against six officers in the death of Freddie Gray, who suffered a severe spinal injury while in police custody.

Now Mosby and her husband, City Councilman Nick Mosby, are about to be guest ringmasters for the UniverSoul Circus.

The couple is also slated to accept the “UniverSoul Circus Community Service Award for their commitment to the well-being of the Baltimore community” at Friday afternoon’s performance, according to a press release from the circus. . . .

"Five reasons why the Dennis Hastert scandal disgusts me"

Thomas Lifson

. . . "That said, there are other, [less] obvious reasons why this entire affair disgusts me.

"2. The indictment of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert could not have come at a better time for Democrats. With scandal upon scandal piling up around Hillary Clinton, her shakedown foundation, and her horn dog Orgy Island-visiting husband having difficulty staying off the stage, it is a welcome distraction for the media."' . . .
. . .
"I am sure that with an election pending, we will get a ton of dirt on Hastert. A great distraction from the Clintons."

As Obama's Economy Falls, White House Excuses Boom

Investor's Business Daily

 

. . . "On the list of excuses for President Obama's ongoing failure to produce decent economic growth, we hadn't heard this one: A "seasonal adjustment" problem at the Bureau of Economic Analysis, which compiles the GDP estimates.

"White House chief economist Jason Furman says that, despite its seasonal adjustments, the BEA might not be accurately accounting for the effect of winter weather on growth.

Clinton Foundation hit with racketeering lawsuit

 

 Clinton Foundation hit with racketeering lawsuit . . . "The racketeering, influenced and corrupt organizations, or RICO, case alleges the former first couple and their family philanthropy traded political favors for donations or generous speaking fees for Bill Clinton while his wife was the nation's chief diplomat.

" 'Negotiations by email about influencing U.S. foreign policy or U.S. Government actions to benefit donors to ... The Clinton Foundation or sponsors of speaking engagements would not be captured on a U.S. Government email account because her emails would not be with a U.S. Government official," Klayman said in court documents obtained by the Washington Examiner." . . .

Richard Larsen   . . . "Considering the nature of the charges against FIFA, it seems only logical to wonder if, or when, such charges will be levied against Bill and Hillary Clinton, and the Clinton Foundation.

 Wonder what FIFA got for their contribution to the Clinton Foundation

"The DOJ indictment alleges that FIFA officials “abused their positions of trust to acquire millions of dollars in bribes and kickbacks,” according to Attorney General Loretta Lynch. The graft is alleged to have influenced World Cup host nation selection, marketing rights for sports marketing companies, and broadcast rights for television coverage of FIFA events.

 

"Prima facie, it doesn’t appear that FIFA did anything more legally dubious than did the Clinton Foundation. ' . . .

 

Soon Hillary will have even more reason to hate the press   "Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is widely believed to have a strong dislike for the national media, though there is no clear reason why. Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan thinks she knows the answer.

"In an op-ed on Thursday, Noonan said Clinton, when she was first lady, didn't initially grasp that just because reporters are generally liberal, that doesn't mean they're on her side."

 

Counting Up Obama’s Cataclysmic Foreign Policy Failures

President Obama, in describing his foreign policy doctrine in private conversations to reporters, said, “We don’t do stupid sh*t.” He actually does, quite a lot, and in ways that may be unmatched by any president in our history. Over the course of his presidency, Mr. Obama has implemented the policy he’s wanted. As a result, in several nations and in some regions, he has helped open the gates of hell.

 

Peter Wehner    "With the Islamic State expanding its reach after two key victories in Ramadi, the capital of Iraq’s Anbar Province, and Palmyra, a strategically important city in Syria, it might a good time to ask: What are the worst foreign policy failures of Barack Obama’s presidency? The list is long; here are several to choose from.



"1. The Rise of ISIS. President Obama failed to anticipate the rise of ISIS, which he ridiculed as a “jayvee team” as recently as last year, and he has since failed to do anything effective to impede it. ISIS had established territory in large parts of Syria and Iraq; it now “controls a volume of resources and territory unmatched in the history of extremist organizations.” Under Mr. Obama’s watch, a jihadist caliphate has been established in the heart of the Middle East — and the president has no strategy to deal with it.

"2. Losing the War in Iraq. President Obama’s predecessor handed to him a war that had been won." . . .  Read the full article.

I feel other nations must worry more about the American voters - legal or otherwise- who put this man into office not once, but twice. The second time after knowing what kind of president he has been! 
If the next time we elect an intelligent, courageous foreign policy leader, many of our allies may still be reluctant to follow our lead because they realize the very next administration will be another leftist, ineffectual one like that which Obama voters chose in 2008 and 2012.

Downtrend

"The liberal media might not have Jon Ritzheimer to kick around any more.

"He’s the Marine (there’s no such thing as an “ex-Marine”, Mediaite) who organized the “Draw Mohammed” protest in Phoenix last night. He said that he’s received death threats in response to his protest.

"Who saw that coming?

"Ritzheimer told the media that, as a result of the threats, he’s going into hiding for his own safety and the safety of his family.

"We can’t blame him.

"He noted that there had been people “calling for folks to come and behead” him. He called that “tyranny” and “terrorism right here in America.”

"President Obama would probably call it “protest violence.' ” . . . More...
