As many of you will recall, Obama made a trip to Pakistan when he was at Occidental College. I am seeing indicators that this relates to the Awans' network and to Iraq and Iran's nuclear programs, which I'm putting out here for others to help fill the missing pieces in and to get this to the right people. First, a recap of Obama's Pakistan trip:Obama’s Russia Problem: Obama's Links to Soviet-era Spy Rings and Terrorist NetworksAt Occidental College, Obama became involved in radical student politics, deliberately networking with activist students and professors, as he mentions in his autobiography. In 1981,...

Can anyone remember the Drudge Report going gray in the past? It's sort of ominous with the North Korea headline. Turned it gray at 10:14:03http://www.drudgereportarchives.com/data/2017/08/07/index.htm?s=flag

I have been paying special attention to the liberal editorial front page headlines that stain my AOL homepage…I haven't documented each and every instance of bias but this latest frontpage pushed me to the limit. From Tuesday, June 10, 2003, they have a pop up of GW at the Presidential podium and the caption Does he rate a thumb's up? Bush linked War to Weapons, Terror. But Where's the proof?…This underlined bit brings you to the heart of the liberal bias…The title of the linked page is AOL NEWS -- The Bush Credibility Meter…The body reads "He went after Saddam...

Th[e] Civil Asset Forfeiture law allows the police to confiscate the asset without a trial, summons, or conviction. They just grab the asset. In some cases, if people refused to sign a waiver for their cash or possessions, they were threatened with jail and losing their children to foster care. The 2016 presidential election is in many ways a battle between the once traditional idea of freedom in the form of the Nation State and that of the New World Order ruled by unelected bureaucrats as in Europe’s E.U....

A prosecutor once said he could get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich. Since Mueller has now empaneled a grand jury, we should send ham sandwiches to Mueller's office so he'll have something to indict, given how bogus the charges are against the Trump Campaign and Administration.

Firing the Mooch. BIG MISTAKE. I do not care what anyone says. He was brilliant at the press conferences. And as Diamond and Silk pointed out, for the 10-11 days he was on, Russia was not the narrative and the swamp was only starting to get drained. The moment he was fired and General Kelly came on board: more leaks than with Priebus in charge!!! And swamp creatures getting a free pass galore. The next few weeks is going to be a dark period for the White House until President Trump gets his bearings and trusts his instincts again rather...

I've lurked on the Free Republic website for a while now. Truth to tell, I found the place especially worthwhile for quick updates on the nail-biting 2016 election cycle. I was at first all in for Ted Cruz, but as we know, he fell by the wayside. I suspect that as bright as he is, Ted Cruz may be a little too slick for his own good. One seriously wonders how he would have done in the actual election had he managed to win the nomination. He's about as close as we'll ever get to a true conservative, but where's...

Melissa Bean spent a career in the high-tech industry before turning her efforts to politics. So when the Barrington resident was elected to Congress last year to represent the 8th District, Bean knew that technology would travel with her to Washington. She has worked for Schaumburg-based Motorola Inc. and Mountain View, Calif.-based Synopsis Inc. And in 1995, Bean launched Sales Resources Inc., a sales consultancy aimed at technology companies. She says her application of technology for personal and political purposes is in stark contrast to the man she defeated in November. "My predecessor didn't even have an e-mail address," Bean...

Wheeler's lawsuit claims he was falsely quoted as a source for a story on Seth Rich. All of the claims Wheeler denied making in the lawsuit are on this tape apparently (verify for yourself). Full tape being released later today. Some other claims I hadn't heard in other places.

Having just watched the WH presser led by Sarah Huckabee Sanders (who is doing an outstanding job BTW) and having watched John Roberts report to Neil Cavuto on Fox about said presser, it appears that ALL White House personnel report to General Kelly.I think this is a wonderful development.

Document is at link.

My good friends at Free Republic. We must force Congress to live under the same laws as all of us normal Americans. The time is now. We are not surfs. We own this country, we make it run. The Trump Presidency has given us the window we need to fix our criminal Congress. No Congressman should get lifetime anything in excess of what any U.S Soldier, Sailor, Airman, or Marine, Coast Guard earn defending this country. No special health care, No lifetime perks, no insider trading. We must show up at every event where our elected representatives and make it...

President Trump did not realize, in the beginning, that he would need "kamikaze teams" in the executive branch. (This expression is taken from Yegor Gaidar, Russia's prime minister from June through December 1992, who afterwards said his was a "kamikaze team" to implement as much free-market reform as possible before inevitably being thrown out.) Also one can think of Mikheil Saakashvili, the former Georgian prime minister, who in 2000-01 was first the well-regarded and very successful justice minister, who reform corrupt police system. He said later, "After six waves of reform, the cops finally stopping pulling you over on the...

The politicians often refer to "regular order." Yesterday John McCain called for a "return to regular order". Can anyone explain to the uninitiated what "regular order" is and how it differs from "irregular order"(!) ?

Who sent out the "loyal supporter" memo? It's like an army of, douchey wind-up cacklers was set upon us. Please stop. Someone tell me what kind of "loyal supporter" Attorney General wakes up one day and recuses himself from the most high profile witch hunt in history - without even the courtesy of a SIMPLE PHONE CALL. I didn't know "Loyal Supporters" ™ made a practice of surprising their bosses in such a way. "But Jeff was there in the beginning." Yes - for himself. In his very pro-Trump constituency, he risked NOTHING and gained everything by backing Trump. We...

Just listened to a segment on a local radio show this morning with that pinhead NeverTrumper Lt. Col. Ralph Peters. This putz was actually trying to defend the NYT, WaPo and CNN claiming that they are doing a good service for the American public through their investigative reporting. He should go clean McCain's colostomy bag.

Who knows - Maybe she's a heavy pot smoker? And he wants to get her on that, like they got Capone on taxes

I was shocked by what I saw on CSPAN a few days ago. There was a session in the House composed of a small group of both Republicans and Democrats debating whether a small town in Alaska should get money for an eleven mile road to connect up to civilization. The Alaskans were Republicans and the Democrats consisted of Niki Tsongas (Massachusetts), Grijalva (Arizona) and a couple more Democrats from other states. The Alaskans asked for the road so that people could get to an airport to access a hospital. Niki Tsongas said no because it would harm the environment...
