And so she did. "I am Syrian, I must be handled in a friendly manner. Mrs Merkel invited me here!" -- Syrian refugee sex attacker. Amid the chaos, the crowd mocked officers - who were attacked with fireworks and bottles as they tried to get control of the violent crowd. 'Shocked and crying women and girls came to the officers to report they had been sexually assaulted by groups of men from an immigrant background. 'Identification of the perpetrators was not possible because of the size of the crowd. So we decided to disperse the crowd to prevent further...

Determined not to let an uncooperative Congress impede necessary gun controls, a teary President Obama announced a new round of executive legislation aimed at reducing gun violence. While his actions lack Constitutional or statutory authority, the President claimed to be "taking the moral high ground" and alleged that "90% of Americans agree with me." The gist of the President's initiative is to "gum up the works as much as possible in order to make the acquisition of a gun a lengthy, tedious, and frustrating undertaking. Even if all we accomplish is to prevent one person from obtaining a firearm that...

Mexican authorities want to speak with U.S. actor Sean Penn and Latin television star Kate del Castillo, a Mexican law enforcement official told NBC News Sunday. The revelation came a day after Rolling Stone published a secret interview that Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman apparently gave to Penn while on the run. The official also said that investigators were able to learn details about Guzman's whereabouts by intercepting phone conversations between Penn, Del Castillo and the drug lord.

A recent poll shows a slight majority of Americans believe the government should negotiate with terrorists. A YouGov poll conducted from Dec. 10-14 asked 1,000 American adults, "If a U.S. soldier is captured by a terrorist group, do you think the United States should or should not negotiate with that group for the release of the soldier?" In response, 52 percent of Americans responded the government "should" negotiate with terrorists for the release of an American soldier while 24 percent responded the government "should not" negotiate with terrorists. ...

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate won't take up President Barack Obama's request for new war powers to fight the Islamic State group, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Sunday, to avoid tying the hands of the next president. The Obama administration last February proposed a three-year authorization that would take the fight beyond national borders and expand it to any "closely related successor entity" to IS. The plan did not authorize large-scale ground operations. It has languished in Congress as Republicans and Democrats have failed to coalesce around a new authorization. McConnell's resistance to a fresh authorization for the use of...

The jihad against Christianity and Christians leaves hundreds of thousands dead, and yet Western leaders and Christian leaders in the West remain silent. Instead, they pursue the stealth Islamic ruse of "interfaith dialogue" with Muslim leaders, as their flock perishes. "ISIS Burns Christians Alive in Locked Caskets, Escaped Prisoner Reveals," By Anugrah Kumar, Christian Post, January 9, 2016 (thanks to Claude): An Iraqi soldier who escaped from an Islamic State prison has described the terror group's brutal torture of Christians, many of whom died during the torture. "They tortured the [expletive] out of the Christians and some died in the...

LG unveiled a bunch of new things at the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show...One of its new products is a fridge that looks like a giant smart phone. But the funny looking fridge comes with some innovative features. The first is a feature that lets you knock on the right fridge door to view contents without actually opening it up. This keeps food fresher and prevents you from grazing. The second is a smart sensor detector at the foot of the fridge that opens the door automatically when your hands are full of groceries.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said on Sunday that she did not ask for classified information to be sent over a non-secure system while heading the State Department, responding to the latest development in an issue that has dogged her campaign for months. Clinton has repeatedly said she did not handle classified material through her private email account while serving as secretary of state. But a new batch of correspondence released on Friday shows that she instructed an aide in 2011 to send her a memo by email after it could not be sent by secure fax....

WLKY reports that McConnell responded to Obama’s executive gun control by criticizing it, but without offering any action that the Senate plans to take to shut Obama’s efforts down. McConnell said, “If the president thought there was any legislative support for what he was doing, he would try to get the Congress to approve it, so I don’t think what he’s doing is going to have any impact on the problem at all.” And The Wall Street Journal reported that Ryan responded to the gun controls by saying he was “sure” the executive gun controls will be “challenged in the...

Mac Slavo January 10th, 2016 There have been widespread calls for Presidential front runner Donald Trump to issue an apology to Rose Hamid. You’ll recall that Hamid was the woman who silently protested a Trump campaign stop before being ejected from the event by security. But as has often been the case with political plants at Republican events, the public was only given part of the story. In reality, Rose Hamid isn’t a silent follower of the religion a peace, but rather, an ardent supporter of Jihadist activities, having gone so far as to refer to jihadi terrorism as “resistance...

In less than a month voters in Iowa will cast their ballots, officially setting the 2016 presidential election in motion. The big question: Will Americans choose a leader who will truly be ready on Day One to face the enormous global challenges that lie ahead, particularly those in the Middle East? Above all, the next president of the United States must understand that the greatest challenge facing the Western alliance in the Middle East is not simply the threat of radical Islam, but that of apocalyptic Islam. Unfortunately, most candidates and voters are still not adequately familiar with such distinctions....

....Obama appeared in the CNN-produced "Guns in America," an invitation-only "town hall".... Obama repeatedly mischaracterized... .... In response to a question from rape survivor Kimberly Corban regarding defensive gun use, [Hussein] stated, "...what is more often the case is that [victims with guns] may not have been able to protect themselves, but they end up being the victim of the weapon that they purchased themselves." Here [Hussein] is likely alluding to the widely-debunked work of Arthur L. Kellermann that popularized the notion amongst gun control supporters that a firearm in the home makes the home less safe. The methodology of...

Some registered voters in Iowa received robocalls Saturday from a white nationalist super PAC that urged them to support Donald Trump in the 2016 election. "I urge you to vote for Donald Trump because he is the one candidate who points out that we should accept immigrants who are good for America," Jared Taylor said on the robocall, paid for by the American National Super PAC. "We don't need Muslims. We need smart, well-educated white people who will assimilate to our culture. Vote Trump." Taylor is the founder of the white supremacist magazine American Renaissance. The robocall included two more...

Hillary lies through her teeth. Remarkable dishonesty.

John_Rubino January 10, 2016 As China’s leaders figure out that pegging the yuan to the dollar while quintupling their debt in five years was a colossal mistake, they are, apparently, concluding that the only way out is a sudden, sharp currency devaluation. See Pressure on China central bank for bigger yuan depreciation. Chinese citizens, meanwhile, are anxiously awaiting tomorrow’s market open while mentally repeating the same three lines: Sure am glad I bought that gold last year. Wish I’d bought more gold last year. Wonder what I’ll have to pay for gold next week… Here’s what that looks like in...

Barack Obama held his much-ballyhooed town hall last night on guns, as a follow-up to his (tear-jerking) and totally ineffective (gun control measures) announced earlier this week. “We should politicize this,” Obama said of gun control in October. In 2008, he criticized those who “bitterly cling” to guns. And yet he supposedly wanted to rise above all that last night for an open and civil discussion about why every American should agree with him on restricting gun rights. He skillfully insisted that all he wants to do is “make progress” with “modest” proposals, not “solve every crime.” He tried hard...
