Sharyl Attkisson has provided some new information on the closed door Benghazi Select Committee hearings and investigative inquiry.

Including the following from Trey Gowdy:

[…]  “The committee is continuing its probe into all aspects of Benghazi and is currently focused on ensuring access to all first-hand accounts from those on the ground that night. This process will be ongoing and in some respects must remain classified.”–Benghazi Select Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C.

We took a lot of fire -following the Benghazi Brief– when we explained why this would be the case.  The risks of sunlight are essentially equal to both Republicans -who approved the program(s) basic goals via intelligence oversight- and Democrats alike.
Apparently we were correct.

14-Years-Old. Fourteen prior arrests. Arrested again on January 14th. The response from his Grandfather is almost as alarming as the story around his current arrest….

TAMPA (FOX 13) – Hillsborough County deputies say they nearly had to shoot a 14-year-old who was reaching into his waistband.  Deputies say that a search revealed Dallas Robinson was carrying a gun and two magazines of hollow-point bullets.

“This was a kid that was fully-loaded, ready to go,” said HCSO spokesman Larry McKinnon.  They also found that he has a rap sheet that goes back to when he was 10.
Just after midnight in Tampa, near the intersection of St. James and 127th Ave., a deputy stopped Robinson because his bike didn’t have a headlight.
They say that Robinson ran and that the deputy struggled with him before Robinson reached for his waistband. (more…)

A new batch of emails show how IRS official Lois Lerner intentionally tried to stop inquiry about the IRS Targeting scheme back in April of 2012, and how the IRS was seeking to block congressional inquiry into the activity of the prior two years.
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today released a new batch of Internal Revenue Service (IRS) documents, including a series of emails from former IRS official Lois Lerner to then-Tax Exempt and Government Entities (TE/GE) Division Deputy Director Joseph H. Grant strongly objecting to his planned visit to the IRS Cincinnati office “smack dab in the middle” of congressional inquiries into the IRS targeting of conservative groups. Lerner also expresses concerns about a pending investigation by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) into the IRS’s handing of Tea Party applications. (more…)

The STL County Police are going to release more pictures of the looters every Tuesday. Finally, and interestingly, amid explaining this approach from Saint Louis law enforcement comes the following:

“He said the coming images will include some from Aug. 10, the day after white Ferguson police Officer Darren Wilson shot and killed a black teen, Michael Brown, in a controversial confrontation”…

Because many of us have wondered how difficult it would be to catch this guy:

CLAYTON • Calls from the public identified five looting suspects and provided 15 leads after St. Louis County police released surveillance photos last week from violent protests in the Ferguson area Nov. 24.
So the department released a new batch of pictures Tuesday and plans to publicize more on successive Tuesdays. They may be from protest-related crimes on various dates. (more…)

WASHINGTON (CNN) — President Barack Obama’s administration admitted it erred by failing to send a higher-ranking representative of the United States to the Paris unity march on Sunday.
He said Obama himself would have liked to attend the march “had the circumstances been a little different.” But planning began Friday night, 36 hours before the event began, and there wasn’t enough time for the “onerous and significant” security work that needed to take place ahead of a presidential visit, Earnest said. He said Obama’s presence also would have meant extra restrictions on the people who were there. (read more)

But, but, no-one from the secret service was ever queried:

…Alan Greenspan’s wife, Andrea Mitchell, is critiquing you on MSNBC.
President Obama spent the day Sunday watching football. Joe Biden also spent the day at home watching the playoffs in Delaware.

~ The White House Summit on Terrorism Anti-extremism  ~

Have you ever read anything so, well, stuffed full of BS?

(Via Politico) “On February 18, 2015, the White House will host a Summit on Countering Violent Extremism to highlight domestic and international efforts to prevent violent extremists and their supporters from radicalizing, recruiting, or inspiring individuals or groups in the United States and abroad to commit acts of violence, efforts made even more imperative in light of recent, tragic attacks in Ottawa, Sydney, and Paris,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said in a statement.

[…] “Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) efforts rely heavily on well-informed and resilient local communities. Boston, Los Angeles, and Minneapolis-St. Paul have taken the lead in building pilot frameworks integrating a range of social service providers, including education administrators, mental health professionals, and religious leaders, with law enforcement agencies to address violent extremism as part of the broader mandate of community safety and crime prevention,” he said.

After initially doing a spit take at the ridiculousness of the question -contrast against the reality of Obama’s massive ego which would never contemplate taking advice, let alone directions- I decided to read the article. Once you get beyond the rhetorical question, that is not actually rhetorical in presentation, the end of the opinion was quite good.
However, it’s important to remember this is the same administration who tried to hide Mount Rushmore so visitors could not see it; and who put barricades around open air Washington DC monuments to punish Americans for not supporting them financially.
“Will Obama learn from Fatah al-Sisi”?….  LOLOL, how cute; apparently the author thinks that Obama’s pro-Muslim Brotherhood policy is an accident.

Washington Times […] At the core of continuing conflict is an irreconcilable difference between those who see net benefit in freedom under secular law and those who require others to surrender free will and submit to a rigid set of religious precepts.
For years, informed analysts have warned of dangers posed to freedom-loving secular nations by rigid and intolerant humans who claim they are only following instructions set from on high. (more…)

The story initially began back in March of 2014 when several black Philadelphia politicians were caught in a corruption probe and sting operation. At the time the newly elected Democrat PA Attorney General stepped in and pressured the Philadelphia prosecutor to drop charges; the reasoning was incredulous.

The corruption investigation itself was called racist because only the black politicians accepted the bribes. All politicians were offered bribes, but only the black politicians took the bribes – ergo the new State AG, Kathleen Kane, said the STING was racist. The local Philadelphia media reported on the story, which essentially shamed the Philly DA into filing charges. Last month two of the lawmakers were charged – the Philly lawmakers admitted their guilt.
However, the story gets even more bizarre. The State AG was busted leaking information from the secret Grand Jury in Philadelphia who originally proposed charges against the corrupt Philly politicians. Kathleen Kane was said to have given information about the Grand Jury investigation to The Philadelphia Daily News. This turned investigative attention toward the State Attorney General, Kathleen Kane, who, if proven, would have just committed a very serious crime – for nothing more than political motive. (more…)

Now, this is merely an objective exercise. However, what do the leaders in the denial group have in common?   Answer: They are all ideological socialists (modern progressives).
