Some Muslims Complain About Town's 9/11 Memorial

Todd Starnes  "A group of New York Muslims has taken offense at a small town’s new memorial honoring those who died in the September 11th, 2001, terrorist attacks.

The Islamic Organization of the Southern Tier fired off a letter to city leaders in Owego alleging that words engraved in the granite memorial would encourage hatred to Muslims.

"The memorial, which will be dedicated on Saturday, identifies those responsible for the attacks as “Islamic terrorists.”

"That’s a problem for the Islamic Organization of the Southern Tier, based in nearby Johnson City, NY.

"A spokesperson told our Fox television affiliate that having the words “Islamic terrorists” on the monument is a “broad brush against the many Muslims who live in the Southern Tier.”

“ 'They want us to change the word from ‘Islamic Terrorist’ to either ‘terrorist’ or ‘Al Qaeda terrorist,’” City Manager Donald Castelluci told me. “I sent them back an email saying I disagreed with their premise 100 percent.”

"The entire inscription reads:

'How To Be a White Ally' posters say all white people are racist
New students at Pomona College were welcomed to campus with posters in their dorms giving instructions on “How to be a (Better) White Ally” and stating that all white people are racist.

"The sign then gives three steps for white allies to follow:"

“1. Be prepared to make mistakes.

2. Listen and apologize.

3. Make sure to change.”

After Abrupt Exit From Fox News, Greta’s Husband Hints at Legal Action

Law Newz  . . . "The New York Times spoke with Greta’s husband, John P. Coale, on the phone, and pay attention to this key section:

Ms. Van Susteren’s husband, John P. Coale, said in a phone interview on Tuesday that his wife exercised what is known as “key man clause’’ on Friday, which allowed her to leave if Mr. Ailes was not in control.

He said, “There’s so much chaos, it’s very hard to work there.” He said the timing of her departure with the announcement of the settlement with Ms. Carlson was a “coincidence.”

Asked about why she had exercised the key man clause, he said, “There’s more than meets the eye” and that there “might be litigation in the future” so he did not want to talk further.

"The Times doesn’t clarify what the legal action would entail. We can only assume this means she may take legal action against Fox News, regarding a dispute with her contract. We will keep you posted if we get more information."

Legal Experts Shocked by Fox’s $20 Million Settlement With Gretchen Carlson   . . . "Attorneys also believe this case may open the door to more sexual harassment claims in the workplace. Some were especially surprised by the high dollar amount that 21st Century Fox agreed to fork over.

“ 'It’s definitely a bigger settlement than I can recall seeing lately or even ever in a sexual harassment claim. It’s also unusual that it is not confidential. It appears that (the number) was leaked, ” attorney Kate Gold told LawNewz.com. " . . .

Careless Clintons: Bill Clinton Lost Nuclear Codes for Months Says General Hugh Shelton

“Do we want his [Trump’s] finger anywhere near the button?  Source  Her husband’s finger was missing for months after he lost the codes to access the nuclear codes."

Dissing Our National Anthem: Cool. Honoring Cops: Controversial?

Lloyd Marcus

. . . "Folks, I just do not know what is going on in our country anymore. A pro-football player was celebrated for refusing to stand for our National Anthem because he says America suppresses blacks. Meanwhile, other pro-football players were denied their request to honor five police officers assassinated by Black Lives Matter; deemed too controversial.

"As for the pro-football player who refused to stand for our National Anthem, he is the product of decades of liberals filling his head with lies about his country via Democrats, public education, mainstream media and Hollywood. There are also ga-zillionaire black celebs, role models, promoting the lie that cops routinely murder blacks and blacks can not catch a break in this racist hellhole called America.

"Amazingly, all these liberalism indoctrinated millennial and generation-Xers ignore the huge elephant in America’s living room; a black man elected twice to run our country. Blacks are only 12% of the U.S. population. Therefore, it took mega-millions of white votes to trust a black man with the highest office in the land. Despite obvious evidence proving otherwise, far too many younger Americans still believe the lie that blacks are suppressed and white Americans should feel guilty for being white." . . .

Hillary commentary today

Krauthammer’s Take: Clinton E-mail Scandal ‘Is Completely Smothering Her Campaign’
"Charles Krauthammer pointed out that Hillary Clinton’s brazen defiance in the face of evidence that she lied is consistent with her history, but he also said that it is obscuring her message:"

Andrew C. McCarthy: If Hillary Is Corrupt, Congress Should Impeach Her  "The Framers gave Congress a tool to police corrupt executive-branch officials — Congress should use it."

"Why should the Justice Department do for Congress what Congress is unwilling to do for itself?"

CNN/ORC Poll: Trump More Favorable Than Clinton  "Trump leads Clinton among likely voters, 45 percent to 43 percent, but trails her among registered voters, 41 percent to 44 percent. A rising majority also say they think Clinton will win in November—59 percent, up from 55 percent in June."

Hillary 'Worked With' St. Teresa to Create a D.C. Adoption Center That Quickly Closed

"I was fortunate enough to work with her."

. . . "The two first met at the 1994 National Prayer Breakfast, where Mother Teresa was the keynote speaker. In her speech (which you can watch here), Mother Teresa spoke about the evil of abortion. "I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent child, murder by the mother herself," said the future saint. The pro-choice president and vice president, and their pro-choices wives, sat silently in the room as the rest of the attendees applauded." . . .

David French at NRO: Even if You Believe the Left’s Excuses, Hillary Clinton Still Violated Criminal Law  "In short, what the FBI file revealed was the extent of the Clinton deception operation, complete with lurid details — such as aides smashing old Blackberries with a hammer, an IT employee declaring an “oh s***” moment as he rushed to delete files, and Cheryl Mills participating as an attorney in the proceedings even though she was a witness and possible subject in the investigation.

"There are those on the Left side of the Internet who looked at the same report, read every word, and declared that it actually exonerated Clinton."

The Clinton Revelations That Must Not Disappear

"1. The FBI investigation began because of a referral from the U.S. Intelligence Community Inspector General. This is not the vast right-wing conspiracy or one of Hillary Clinton’s partisan foes; the IG’s office is staffed by those whose professional duty is to protect our nation’s secrets." . . .
4. Clinton was obligated to get permission to use her personal device; at no time did she do so.

"Ace of Spades noticed, “Hillary’s Brain Damage came right at the sweet spot: It came to provide her an alibi, then left just in time to permit her to be president.” "Jeryl Bier reminds everyone that Hillary really cannot offer this excuse because she signed official documents affirming she had been properly briefed: 

Andrew C. McCarthy: Hillary Clinton’s Mind-Boggling FBI Interview – What Was Cheryl Mills Doing There?
. . . "For example, when asked about an email chain containing the symbol “(C)” – meaning “confidential,” a designation ubiquitous in classified documents – Clinton claimed not to know what it meant and, according to the notes, “could only speculate it was referencing paragraphs marked in alphabetical order.” This is a response so absurd as to be insulting (the interview notes do not tell us if the FBI asked her to find (A), (B) and (D) notations that would be necessary to have the “alphabetical order” story make sense – assuming, for argument’s sake that one would indulge the possibility that this could be a truthful answer from a classified information consumer as high-level as Clinton)." . . .

Obama disrespected on final Asia trip

Washington Times   "On President Obama’s final trip to Asia, his impending lame-duck status is showing.

"Mr. Obama, who arrived in Laos late Monday night to become the first U.S. president ever to visit the Southeast Asian country, is encountering more than his usual share of friction and confrontation on his 10th trip to the region.

"It started with his arrival at the airport in China, where Chinese officials failed to provide a portable staircase for Mr. Obama to disembark from the upper door of Air Force One with the typical grandiose visibility befitting a visiting head of state. Instead, the president emerged from a smaller staircase in the belly of the aircraft, and many saw it as a deliberate sign of disrespect by the Chinese.

"Republican nominee Donald Trump said he would have refused to meet with Chinese officials if they treated him like they treated Mr. Obama.

“ 'If that were me, I’d say, ‘You know what, folks, I respect you a lot, let’s close the doors, let’s get out of here,’ ” he said Monday.

"Mr. Obama downplayed the episode, and Chinese officials blamed the U.S. for not requesting a staircase." . . .

Disrespecting Obama  (Diss'ed for short on the streets) "Scott and Paul have already commented on the Chinese leaders’ calculated insults to Barack Obama when he landed in China for the G20 conference. But the hostility toward our president didn’t stop there.

"One of Obama’s priorities for the G20 meeting was to negotiate a joint effort in Syria with Vladimir Putin. So far, at least, that hasn’t happened. The main news about their meeting is the “death stare” that they exchanged:" . . .
A stare Obama generally uses only on Republicans.

Philippine president calls Obama an SOB  . . . "Let Duterte rant.  The U.S. should continue to speak out against this murderous rampage.

Thomas Lifson adds:

"How about Saudi Arabia, where they do much worse? In fact a lot of our allies have policies that violate our sense of rights. Why pick on the Philippines?" Rick Moran

Add to that Mr. Obama's refusal to back the Iranian Green Revolution against the Mullah's rule. TD

The president endures humiliation at the G20 for a toothless deal

. . . "Perhaps the unkindest cut of all came when Xi praised the Paris agreement to limit carbon emissions, the issue on which Obama had come to take a victory lap, "It was under Chinese leadership that much of this progress was made.' " . . .

Cal State LA offers segregated housing for black students

Next they will want their own drinking fountains.

Back when this was a noble cause, not PC

Emphasis on the word "California".

The College Fix

‘A safe space for Black CSLA students …’

"California State University Los Angeles recently rolled out segregated housing for black students.

"The arrangement comes roughly nine months after the university’s Black Student Union issued a set of demands in response to what its members contend are frequent “racist attacks” on campus, such as “racially insensitive remarks” and “microaggressions” by professors and students. One demand was for a “CSLA housing space delegated for Black students.”

“ '[It] would provide a cheaper alternative housing solution for Black students. This space would also serve as a safe space for Black CSLA students to congregate, connect, and learn from each other,” the demand letter stated.

"The newly debuted Halisi Scholars Black Living-Learning Community “focuses on academic excellence and learning experiences that are inclusive and non-discriminatory,” Cal State LA spokesman Robert Lopez told The College Fix via email." . . .

Fracking Didn't Cause Oklahoma Earthquake

Daniel John Sobieski   "The earth moved for environmental extremists Saturday when a 5.6 magnitude earthquake struck Oklahoma. As soon as the first aftershock, the greenies were in full voice blaming fracking, the technology that has fueled America’s oil and natural gas boom.

"Oklahoma state regulators ordered 37 disposal wells used by frackers shut downand Green Party presidential candidate Dr. Jill Stein tweeted:

Fracking causes polluted drinking water + earthquakes. The #GreenNewDeal comes with none of these side effects, Oklahoma. #BanFracking

"Hydraulic fracturing, the technical term, does not cause earthquakes nor has there ever been evidence that it contaminates drinking water. Fracking has been used in oil and gas production in Oklahoma since 1949 and now, more than six decades later, the chicken littles of the left are claiming it now causes major destructive earthquakes?

Shock example of media censorship caught on tape: “SHUT IT DOWN!”: REUTERS ORDERS CAMERAMAN TO KILL POSITIVE TRUMP FOOTAGE

"As Justin Raimondo revealed in an article for the LA Times, the mainstream media has openly dispensed with the pretense objectivity during this election cycle in an attempt to sink Trump’s campaign."

InfoWars  "A shock example of anti-Trump media censorship was caught on tape when Reuters ordered its cameraman to cut live footage of Trump receiving praise from African-American Bishop Wayne T. Jackson in Detroit."

. . . "Perhaps aware of the devastating impact the optics of this moment would have on the media’s efforts to demonize Trump as a racist bigot, a voice is heard off-camera saying, “He’s getting a shawl!”

"The cameraman then says, “I’m shooting this, I don’t care what they say….I’ll take a demotion for this…. you?”

“ 'Shut it down,” insists the director,” followed by another voice asking, “Shut this down?”

“ 'Yes Michael, do it,” orders the director.

"We then hear the word “blackout” and the camera shakes before the live feed is cut.

“ 'Reuters was primary video feed for the event, all other video delivery services were coming from the Reuters feed. When Reuters shut down, all other outlets lost the broadcast,” reports the Conservative Treehouse.

"Right Side Broadcasting responded to the controversy by offering the cameraman a job, promising to pay him much more than Reuters." . . .

The professor says, "Get Out of My Class and Leave America"

Mike Adams

Author’s Note: The following column is comprised of excerpts taken from my first lectures on the first day of classes this semester at UNC-Wilmington. I reproduced these remarks with the hope that they would be useful to other professors teaching at public universities all across America. Feel free to use this material if you already have tenure.

"Welcome back to class, students! I am Mike Adams your criminology professor here at UNC­ Wilmington. Before we get started with the course I need to address an issue that is causing problems here at UNCW and in higher education all across the country. I am talking about the growing minority of students who believe they have a right to be free from being offended. If we don’t reverse this dangerous trend in our society there will soon be a majority of young people who will need to walk around in plastic bubble suits to protect them in the event that they come into contact with a dissenting viewpoint. That mentality is unworthy of an American. It’s hardly worthy of a Frenchman. Let’s get something straight right now. You have no right to be unoffended. You have a right to be offended with regularity. It is the price you pay for living in a free society. If you don’t understand that you are confused and dangerously so. In part, I blame your high school teachers for failing to teach you basic civics before you got your diploma. Most of you went to the public high schools, which are a disaster. Don’t tell me that offended you. I went to a public high school. " . . .
