Obama improperly leaps to Hillary’s email defense again

Legal Insurrection

"President Obama has a history of publicly defending Hillary Clinton on her email scandal, and he did it again today on Fox News Sunday.

'"Such public statements in and of themselves are improper political interference in agencies that report to the President.

"In a 60 Minutes interview in October 2015, Obama pretty much signaled Justice to lay off Hillary (emphasis added):

. . .

"Perhaps now we know why Hillary is so confident nothing will happen to her.

"On Face the Nation on March 7, 2016, Hillary rejected the suggestion that she might be indicted:

John Dickerson, host of CBS’s “Face the Nation,” told Clinton he has “talked to Democrats and they worry that somebody is going to get indicted.”

“Well, there is no basis for that,” Clinton responded.

"Worse still, Clinton blamed the State Department for the classification problem, making light of the situation."

Obama tells Loretta Lynch not to prosecute Hillary on classified email crimes

Thomas Lifson  'Interviewed by Chris Wallace of Fox News (transcript here, video embedded below), President Obama pulled down the blindfold on Lady Justice and signaled that there was no crime at all when Hillary Clinton set up an unsecured private server and left classified information vulnerable to hacking by the world’s intelligence services.  He also created a new category of classification: “top secret top secret” as opposed to mere “top secret,” which he averred to Chris Wallace might be information that could be gleaned from public sources."
. . . 

"Nope.  The fix is in.  If the FBI makes a criminal referral, and Lynch declines to prosecute, we are headed for a crisis that will echo Watergate.

"Side note: The left has a new tactic for minimizing misdeeds that are inconvenient for it to confront.  Naming the issue once is now a way of trivializing it.  Only when repeated is it real.  Thus, we need to worry about only “top secret top secret” or, as Whoopi Goldberg put it, “rape rape.”

"Of course, none of this applies to conservatives.

"Video of the complete interview:

Embrace the Chaos, Excuse the Dust

Jack Cashill   . . .“I'm getting questions constantly from foreign leaders about some of the wackier suggestions that are being made,” echoed President Barack Obama. “I have to emphasize that it's not just Trump's proposals. You are also hearing concerns about Cruz's proposals.”

"The operative word about the primaries among the naysayers is one that Kerry uses frequently, “embarrassing.” The Republicans are embarrassing themselves before the nation and embarrassing the nation before the world.

'"Hogwash.

"This year, the Republicans have defied their own party mandarins, the high priests of political correctness, and a complicit and corrupt media to stage the most exciting and energetic primary process since they nominated underdog Abraham Lincoln on the third ballot during a tumultuous Chicago convention." . . .

Exclusive: Kathleen Willey Blasts Feminists for Ignoring Bill Clinton’s ‘Rapes, Sexual Assaults,’ Says Hillary ‘Allowed Herself to Be Humiliated’

https://earloftaint.com/

Breitbart  "Kathleen Willey, one of the women who famously accused Bill Clinton of sexual assault, and who has said she faced attempts to intimidate and silence her, used a radio interview on Sunday to blast established feminists for not speaking out about Bill Clinton’s alleged sex crimes.

"Willey said she found it “very frustrating” that feminists haven’t called out Hillary Clinton for ignoring the controversies over her husband’s alleged assaults against women.

"Stated Willey:

I don’t understand why these [feminist] women will not address this. It’s a problem. It’s Hillary Clinton’s problem. It’s Bill Clinton’s problem. It’s Chelsea Clinton’s problem.  Hillary Clinton chose to look the other way, to allow herself to be humiliated in front of the world and she enabled him to continue on with his behavior.  And it has not stopped.You know, if he has a consensual relationship with somebody and she doesn’t care and he doesn’t care, then I guess that’s none of our business. But when it crosses the line into rape and sexual harassment and sexual assault, well then that ought to be the business of the feminists.

If You Don't Rent to Criminals, Are You a Racist?

Townhall

"You're a private landlord, renting apartments in a building you bought with your savings from years of hard work and modest living. You take pride in maintaining your property, keeping it clean, comfortable, and attractive. You charge a fair rent and treat your tenants with courtesy and respect. Your tenants, in turn, appreciate the care you put into the building. And they trust you to screen prospective tenants wisely, accepting only residents who won't jeopardize the building's safe and neighborly character. That's why you only consider applications from individuals who are employed or in school, whose credit scores are strong, and who have no criminal record." 

"Most Americans would look at you and likely see a prudent, levelheaded property owner. Not the Obama administration. The Department of Housing and Urban Development warned last week that landlords who refuse to rent to anyone with a criminal record are in violation of the Fair Housing Act and can be prosecuted and fined for racial discrimination." . . .

Krauthammer: Obama Used ‘Deception’ To Sell Iran Deal, ‘You Want to Weep’ When You See His Reaction To Iran’s Behavior

Breitbart (NOT the evil Disney character.)

Video here.

. . . "Krauthammer said, “You hear the administration reaction to what Iran is doing, and you want to weep. The president says it’s not living up to the spirit of the agreement. As if anybody sentient would believe that the Iranians believe in the kind of spirit Obama does. The reaction, the behavior since the signing of the agreement has shown that it has shown no concern whatsoever, the ballistic missiles, the shipping of weapons to rebels, the using of Hezbollah to fight on behalf of Assad in Syria, the threatening of the neighbors. I mean, this was so obvious from the beginning. Then you get Earnest today saying that what the Iranians are doing with the weapons shipment is not consistent with UN Security Council. No, it’s a violation. And the worst part of this is not just the naïveté, it’s the deception that the administration used in selling the agreement on two fronts. Number one, you show the clip of the administration spokesman saying that UN Security Council resolutions would prohibit ballistic missile launches. No, the administration, at the last minute, caved, changed the resolution, so it is not a violation. And we have now admitted it at the UN, and secondly, we had promised the Congress that we would not allow the Iranians to dollarize their transactions, and we are doing that now.' ” . . .

All wrong -- in California, girls can use urinals in the boys' restroom
"As of January 1, students in California public schools have been able to choose whether to use the boys’ rest room or girls’ rest room, as well as the girls’ locker room or boys’ locker room, based on whether they feel female or male, not whether they are anatomically female or male." . . .

The War On Women Moves to Restrooms

It is a new liberal cause to ensure that "the transgendered have more rights than women and girls who want to be free of assault, rape, and child molestation when at their most vulnerable. . . 

Clarice Feldman  "To accommodate the perceived wishes of a very small number of people, the federal government and many states are placing women and girls at risk of rape and assault in restrooms.

There are about a mere 700,000 transgender individuals in the U.S., or 0.3% of the adult population. As John Hinderaker correctly notes -- that makes them almost as rare as unicorns. 

It doesn’t take a genius to realize that allowing men who decide they really want to be women to use women’s restrooms is a dangerous idea: not to the wise men of Charlotte, North Carolina who passed an ordinance allowing men to use women’s’ restrooms if they believed they were mistakenly inhabiting men’s’ bodies. Wiser heads in the North Carolina legislature prevailed and passed a law “barring cities from adopting anti-discrimination laws that are inconsistent with, or in addition to, the laws in effect at the state level, which already cover race, religion, national origin, color, age, biological sex and handicaps.”

Tommy Robinson Legal Defense Fund: An Appeal

Gates of Vienna   "A few details on his case…

"The last time Tommy was in prison, he was locked up with hardened Muslim criminals who wanted to kill him. He was repeatedly attacked and beaten up, and ended up in the prison hospital more than once.

"On one occasion he was locked in a cell with several Muslim prisoners, one of whom (a Somali, if I remember correctly) was about throw boiling water in his face. Tommy acted pre-emptively, knocked the boiling water away, and beat up the man who tried to throw it on him.

"It is this incident for which he is being charged.

"The real issue behind all these arrests is that Tommy speaks the truth about the danger to the British people posed by Islam. But he is no longer being prosecuted for “hate speech” offenses — the state does not want the substance of what he says to aired in an open courtroom and discussed in the national media. Thus other types of infractions must be found and other charges brought. The current case against him is simply the latest example of the repressive tactics being employed by the totalitarian British state.

"The Powers That Be were successful in “decapitating” the English Defence League — with the help of the Quilliam Foundation — and are now attempting to do the same thing to the recently established UK 
chapter of PEGIDA.

"So here’s the plan: Lock up the most charismatic leader the British Counterjihad has. Put him in with his most dangerous enemies — Muslim criminals who have promised to kill him. Make sure that the guards are absent or looking the other way when the trouble starts. Then, as far as the shariah-compliant British state is concerned, the problem has been solved.

"The UK, like all the other enlightened governments of Western Europe, has abolished the death penalty. But there’s more than one way to kill a political nuisance — you don’t have to march him up the steps to the gibbet, put the noose around his neck, and open the trapdoor under him.

"What is happening to Tommy Robinson is capital punishment by alternative means.

Prof. Mike Adams

"I’m old enough to remember a time when civil rights struggles focused on noble causes such as removing the barriers that kept black people from voting. Previous generations of civil rights activists fought so blacks and whites could use the same voting booth. This generation of activists fights so men and women can use the same bathroom stall. One could say that liberal activism has really gone down the toilet.

Education Action Group

"If you can wade through all of the activist hysteria, it is worth taking a look at the substance of the claims of supporters of the Charlotte, North Carolina transgendered bathroom ordinance. It is disturbing that such an ordinance ever passed through any city government and had to be stopped by the state legislature. Perhaps even more disturbing than the substance of their claims is the set of tactics used by LGBT activists to enforce the views of a small minority against the strong opposition of the majority. There are many, but here is an overview of some of the guilty parties:"  Below is a brief outline of what this column covers.

SPRINGSTEEN Deliberately Hurt Fans, Workers by Cancelling NC Show in Stand Against Law Banning Men From Women’s Bathrooms

"Millionaire rock star Bruce Springsteen deliberately chose to ‘hurt economically’ fans, workers and small businesses by his last minute cancellation of a concert in Greensboro, North Carolina set for Sunday in protest of a state law known as HB2 that bans men from using women’s bathrooms. Springsteen cancelled the date Friday afternoon, just two days before the April 10 show which would have featured the complete playing of his 1980 album, The River.

"Rolling Stone reported Springsteen guitarist Steve Van Zandt said backstage Friday night at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn that Springsteen and his band, The E Street Band, chose to hurt the people of North Carolina to punish them for the state’s new law protecting women and girls from ‘transgender’ men using women’s bathrooms.

“ 'We just felt the issue was just too important,” Van Zandt said. “This really vile and evil[!] discrimination is starting to spread state to state and we thought, ‘We better take a stand right now and catch it early.'”

"…“It’s unfortunately the only way people understand. You have to hurt them economically in order to have them do the right thing morally, unfortunately,” the guitarist said, adding that he hoped Springsteen’s efforts in the state would “set some kind of example for others.' ”. . .

DESPICABLE Trump fans mock Mary Katherine Ham’s deceased husband to Make America ‘Great’ Againz

The Right Scoop  "If you want to see some truly scummy behavior, just make a pretty decent point against Emperor Trump, and you’ll be attacked mercilessly by the bottom-dwellers that inhabit the nether regions of Twitter.

"This time what set off the swarm of feces-tossers was when Fox News contributor Mary Katherine Ham dared to compare the verbally incontinent moron Donald to his surprisingly intelligent and even-tempered daughter Ivanka:

Mary Katharine Ham ‎@mkhammerIvanka Trump is everything Donald wants to be but isn't:http://

"She is literally complimenting his daughter, but pointing out the yuge difference between the two. That’s all.

"So the Trump-peons grabbed their keyboard torches and mouse-pitchforks and yelled, “This aggression will not stand!!!”

"And to emulate the classiness of their emperor, they mocked her deceased Husband, Jake:"

Idiotic and petty.So, Mary Katharine, if slammin' family member is okay with you . . . .How is your husband doing in hell???

Hillary can’t escape her Superpredator past

Bill Clinton to Black Lives Matter protesters: “You are defending the people who kill the lives you say matter!”

Never have I agreed with Bill Clinton more, TD

"The Black Lives Matter movement is angry with Hillary Clinton over Hillary’s use of the term “Superpredators” in the 1990s to describe young black male criminals.

"That term was an integral part of selling the public on tougher criminal sentencing that BLM blames for the current high rates of incarceration for blacks.

"We covered the issue when a BLM protester confronted her at a fundraiser in late February, Hillary apologizes for stigmatizing generations of young black men as “superpredators”:

It was a chilling speech in 1996.

Speaking in favor of a new crime bill, Hillary Clinton used the term “superpredator” to describe young, mostly black, men who were residual criminals. While the term was not literally limited to blacks, it came to signify and justify the mass incarceration of young black men under harsh sentencing laws:

“They are not just gangs of kids anymore. They are often the kinds of kids that are called ‘superpredators.’ No conscience, no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel.” . . .More at the link

 

Bill Clinton apologizes and pretends to grovel before #BlackLivesMatter
. . . "It is not hard to imagine what sort of phone calls precipitated this seeming reversal.  Al Sharpton and/or other race-baiters threatened Hillary, and Hillary threatened Bill.  Hillary still needs the turnout of black voters at somewhere close to Obama election levels to continue to vanquish Sanders, and the Democratic Party is utterly dependent on black turnout for its electoral success nationally.  Thus, the successful anti-crime measures of the Clinton administration (then known as “triangulation” under the guidance of Dick Morris) must be repudiated, or at least modified in the face of the uncomfortable fact that lowering crime means locking up violent criminals who are wildly disproportionately black." . . .

"I have to assume that Hillary demanded he undo the damage he had done to her prospects of full-throated support from the race-mongering faction that is so useful in driving turnout pressures.  And Bill refused to back down on the substance of his achievements in office.  So they worked out a process apology that could serve as a scalp for the social justice warriors but left intact Bill’s defense of his own record."
