Even while making the arrests, of suspected terrorists, the federal authorities maintain the air of political correctness:

“As alleged, the defendants looked to join the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant by flying to Turkey in a vain attempt to evade detection. And one of the defendants was prepared to commit acts of terror here —in America— if he could not travel, to include killing FBI agents.

The defendants violated the true tenants of their faith in pursuit of their radical, violent agenda. We rely on help from the community, the public, and religious leaders to be mindful of those who could be radicalized. We cannot do this alone,”….

Obviously the same sensitive definitions would not be allowed if the pesky jihadists were Amish…. so sayeth FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge Rodriguez. (more…)

While I’m sure this provides little ease for George Zimmerman at least it removes one of the various swords of Damocles hovering over his every move.

UPDATE 2:00pm – Official Federal Department of Justice Announcement:

Federal Officials Close Investigation Into Death of Trayvon Martin

The Justice Department announced today that the independent federal investigation found insufficient evidence to pursue federal criminal civil rights charges against George Zimmerman for the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin on Feb. 26, 2012, in Sanford, Florida.

Prosecutors from the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, officials from the FBI, and the Justice Department’s Community Relations Service met today with Martin’s family and their representatives to inform them of the findings of the investigation and the decision.

“The death of Trayvon Martin was a devastating tragedy. It shook an entire community, drew the attention of millions across the nation, and sparked a painful but necessary dialogue throughout the country,” said Attorney General Eric Holder.

“Though a comprehensive investigation found that the high standard for a federal hate crime prosecution cannot be met under the circumstances here, this young man’s premature death necessitates that we continue the dialogue and be unafraid of confronting the issues and tensions his passing brought to the surface. We, as a nation, must take concrete steps to ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future.” (more…)

James O’Keefe puts together a research video on Al Sharpton from the perspective of those inside the families he claims to advocate for. The overall video is ok, but in my opinion James has spotlighted the wrong genre in the professional Black Grievance Industry. (more after video)

(Via Project Veritas) Here’s our new video showing how the families and attorneys of Eric Garner, Trayvon Martin, and Michael Brown really feel about Rev. Al Sharpton. Additionally, local clergy and others express their opinions about how Sharpton exploits tragedy for personal gain.

Accepting the timeline as presented, and accepting the 7:31pm USMS geo-location, one has to wonder.  “Right house, wrong Eric”? Surely, the police could not be that naïve. Surely they know there’s another Eric, a younger Eric, at the same residence.

Surely…. right?

It has been over two years since 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson went to the Lowndes County High gym around 1 p.m. As evidence indicated, Johnson climbed up on top of a stack of gym mats to reach for shoes he’d left behind – he fell head first into the rolled up mats, became stuck, and died as a result of positional asphyxia.

However, that determination didn’t sit well with the family of Kendrick Johnson, nor did an “accidental death” fit with the narrative needed by the law firm of Daryl Parks and Benjamin Crump in order to get the customary wrongful death lawsuits’ off the ground.

What the family of Kendrick Johnson most likely didn’t know was for Daryl Parks and Benjamin Crump the timing of January 2013 was not the best.

January 2013, for the professional race-baiting antagonists, was a time of consternation, trepidation and worry. January, 2013 was a time when the pre-trial discoveries for the case against George Zimmerman were taking place. (more…)

Details of the “emergency order” filing are not actually provided in the announcement. Most likely this is because the substantive portion of the blocked presidential action is not anticipated to be a winning argument which would allow a restart.
Any aspect of President Obama’s former “executive action” which would change the legally identified status of illegal aliens by dictatorial fiat would easily lose, even on an appeal action seeking a restart. Meaning his goal to create an entirely distinct status of “eligible alien” for employment or benefit would not pass muster.
However, if Obama merely seeks to reestablish his authority to use prosecutorial discretion -allowing DHS to selectively enforce deportation- he will probably have a greater likelihood of winning the appeal/restart order.
(Via The Hill) Officials at the Department of Justice (DOJ) plan to seek what is known as an emergency stay that would essentially undo a Texas-based federal judge’s injunction from earlier this week. If the stay is granted, the government could restart a pair of executive programs that will shield millions of undocumented immigrants from deportation. (more…)

They have finally identified the enemy, and the enemy is us !

CNN is broadcasting a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) report which outlines what the Obama administration considers a threat to the United States.  CNN outlines the report and claims the threats are:

[…]”from sovereign citizen groups as equal to — and in some cases greater than — the threat from foreign Islamic terror groups, such as ISIS”.  (link)

Yes, “greater than” the threat posed by ISIS.

Obviously, beyond the insufferable substance of the report, the timing of the report highlights a divisionary tactic by the Obama administration to deflect attention away from their own unwillingness to identify, let alone confront, the threat of Islamic Terror spreading globally.
Apparently it is far more in line with the current administration to consider disgruntled U.S. citizens as a more significant threat to the advancement of the current White House agenda. (more…)

As CEO of the Grievance Industry, and also head of all law enforcement, Attorney General Eric Holder threatens to file a lawsuit against the Ferguson Police Department if the department does not stop holding black residents accountable to laws.

Holder is essentially threatening to try and get a “consent decree” established which would require the Ferguson Police to have complete Civil Rights Division oversight for the duration of the decree.
If Holder proceeds, and the Ferguson PD does not back down, you can expect the DOJ to use the tenuous legal concept of “Disparate Impact” to advance their charges. (more…)

The Democrat Party is apoplectic with rage at the determination by a Federal Court Judge who has blocked the Obama implementation of the “executive action” in changing immigration status and law. However, the anger is now exposing the dark underbelly of the Democrat plan to usurp voter law.
In this video you see one such exposure. Democrat Representative Louis Gutierrez claiming that now, because of the judicial ruling, the Democrat party will assist the illegal alien community in registering to vote, voting and expressing voter anger.

This admission by Gutierrez should be used by every advocacy group who is trying to insure voter integrity. It is clear evidence of exactly why voter identification is needed in every state and Gutierrez’s admission actually supports the position of why such voter integrity laws are needed. (more…)

AG Eric Holder spoke before the National Press Club today and stated the civil rights investigation into the shooting of Mike Brown and the larger issues with Ferguson Police Department will be completed prior to his leaving office.
However, no mention of the insufferable FBI investigation for George Zimmerman that has been dragging on for years.  Apparently Holder is planning to allow the threat of FBI investigation to follow Zimmerman as the Attorney General seeks to clear his desk of the other highly visible cases.
Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch is anticipated to be confirmed in the next few weeks unless more GOP Senators raise objections which, at this point seems unlikely. Eric Holder said he is “confident” that decisions on both Brown and Ferguson will be ready and announced before Lynch is confirmed by the Senate. (more…)
