This has all the indicators of reaching the West Wing. Prior Democrats in Congress had espoused the IRS *should* take this approach. With such blatant admissions in 2010, and even 2011 after they lost the House they continued the approach, this is going to be VERY difficult for the administration to firewall.
GOOD GRIEF – Unbelievable stuff from that questioning session today in congress.
Attorney General, Eric Holder, claims he recused himself from the decision making surrounding the wiretapping of more than 100 Associated Press reporters and 20+ phone lines. However, he states we need to take his word for it because there is nothing documented which provides support for his self-recusal claim.
Not only that, he claims he doesn’t even know “WHEN” he recused himself, and further states he never notified anyone of the recusal itself – nor did he notify the White House. (more…)
Not coincidentally in the State of Florida VS. George Zimmerman case a similar term has been used by those who perpetrate the fraud:
“Leave No Stone Unturned”
On its face it seems a disingenuous statement made to affirm an intent to get to the truth. However, to factually understand the context of its intimidated use in the Zimmerman case you must consider the surrounding facts when it was used.
Throughout the month of March, 2012, the Sanford Police Department had repeatedly stated to the media and interested parties (Martin Family troop of lawyers: Benjamin Crump, Natalie Jackson, Daryl Parks – and media consultant Ryan Julison) that investigation into the case had resulted in nothing found to contradict the description of events outlined by George Zimmerman.
The entire weight of the Sanford PD had turned over every stone, while under extreme pressure, national spotlight, and scrutiny, and yet found nothing to contradict Mr. Zimmerman.
Nothing.
The President of the United States called Trayvon “his son”, and subsequently new “Stone Turners” were demanded – Police Chief Bill Lee was removed from the department; Then District Attorney Norman Wolfinger was removed the day after he scheduled a Grand Jury impanel on April 11th.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, DOJ Civil Rights Head Tom Perez, Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi and the full weight of the Federal DOJ together with the Federal Community Relations Service, The “Peacekeepers” and The State of Florida took over. (more…)
The DOJ having the authority to do warrantless wiretaps without presenting justification to a judge is alarming. The DOJ having the authority to do such wiretapping against reporters in the media, who provide the fourth estate to protect -and check- the balance of power, is well beyond alarming.
It was only fair that Associated Press reporter Jim Kuhnhenn got the first question to White House Press Secretary Jay Carney at Tuesday’s press briefing. Coming just one day after news broke that the Department Of Justice had secretly seized two months worth of phone records from AP reporters, Kuhnhenn used his question to tie the AP scandal together with the other troubling news stories of the week for the Obama administration.
“For fear of stating the obvious,” Kuhnhenn began, “the White House right now is confronting a confluence of issues: Benghazi talking points, IRS reviews of political groups, Justice Department’s review of journalists’ phone records, and in every instance either the president or you have placed the burden of responsibility someplace else… But it is the president’s administration, so I wonder, doesn’t responsibility for setting tone, for setting direction ultimately rest with the president on these matters?” (more…)
Listen to what Jay Carney is stating here in regard to the White House knowledge of the issues surrounding the targeting of Tea Party and Conservative groups.
Last Friday the same original media sources (the reporters on the phone conference with the IRS official who apologized) said the report was to be released within the next day. As a result of the admission the media story quickly took off.
Now The White House is saying: We’ll defer comment, and “wait for the report” etc.
You know this “report” has not only been scrutinized at length by the protectors, but has been re-written more than a few times as the points are critiqued by all the concentric circles that compromise the White House and Cabinet political machine. Revisions, revisions, revisions…..
WASHINGTON DC – Republicans are training their attacks on acting IRS Commissioner Steve Miller amid new revelations that he and the agency’s former top official knew employees were targeting conservative groups but failed to notify Congress despite repeated requests.
Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, the top Republican on the Finance Committee, and 10 other GOP lawmakers wrote to then-IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman on June 18, 2012 demanding answers about why the agency requested donor information from groups seeking nonprofit status.
By the time this letter was sent, Shulman and Miller, who was the deputy IRS commissioner at the time, were aware of the extent of the targeting program for about a month. (more…)
WASHINGTON DC – Senator Ted Cruz says the IRS scandal “harkens back to the days of Richard Nixon,” and proves that President Obama keeps an “enemies list.”
“This is part of a distressing pattern of the Obama administration of being less than honest with the American people and using the machinery of government to target their political opponents,” Cruz tells National Review in an interview.
“It harkens back to the days of Richard Nixon and maintaining a political enemies list and treating the federal government as a tool to exact the administration’s retribution,” he adds. (more…)
(Via Daily Caller) Famed Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz ranks Sen. Ted Cruz among the school’s smartest students, adding that the Canada-born Texan can run for president in 2016.
Cruz was a “terrific student,” Dershowitz told The Daily Caller. “He was always very active in class, presenting a libertarian point of view. He didn’t strike me as a social conservative, more of a libertarian.”
“He had brilliant insights and he was clearly among the top students, as revealed by his class responses,” Dershowitz added. […]
Cruz “was an outstanding student in my class,” Dershowitz said. “Without a doubt he is among the smartest students I’ve ever had… I’ve had great students but he has to be at the top of anyone’s short list, in terms of raw brain power.” (continue reading)
The George Zimmerman case was not a fight we chose, it was a fight that chose us. We wanted to find the truth, the opposition wanted to hide the truth – such is the nature of the conflict comprised.
That said, the serious issues at hand are far greater than a product now defined as George Zimmerman. However, the ideological argument is always augmented with the consideration that one man’s freedom does actually lie in the balance.
What George Zimmerman ‘the product’ is to the Professional Black Grievance Industry, albeit under the auspices of ‘civil rights and wrongful death’ protestations, is not dissimilar to Nakoula Basseley Nakoula and what he was for the Obama administration.
Both Nakoula and Zimmerman are tools, representative products, needed to advance a claim. The merit of the claim is tied intrinsically into the narrative that each product represents for those who seek to use it. (more…)
This story deserves to be shared with everyone you know….
“Extortion 17” was the call sign for the Chinook helicopter shot down in Afghanistan on the night of August 6th, 2011. Among the killed in the crash were 25 special operations forces, including 15 members of SEAL Team 6, five National Guard troops, and eight Afghan nationals.
Yesterday, the families of the military personnel killed in that crash held a press conference to lay out the cover-up by Obama and the military ever since. (more…)
