CALIFORNIA – Two plainclothes Los Angeles police officers were shot at Sunday evening while driving through a South L.A. neighborhood, prompting an exchange of gunfire that caused several suspects to scatter, authorities said.

The officers were fired upon near the intersection of 65th Street and Broadway in the Florence neighborhood just before 5:45 p.m., Det. Meghan Aguilar. The officers then returned fire.

It was unclear if the officers were in a marked vehicle at the time of the shooting, but Augilar said they believed they were specifically targeted. (more…)

(Via Washington Free Beacon) The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) tried to hide an email about its fear of upsetting the White House from Freedom of Information Act requests by the Associated Press, the AP reported Friday.

Associated Press president Gary Pruitt reported in an op-ed on government transparency that, during the course of an AP investigation into Michelle Obama’s dresses, NARA used a privacy exemption to redact a line in an email that was actually about the agency’s fear of the White House:

As the president said, the United States should not withhold or censor government files merely because they might be embarrassing.

But it happens anyway.

The White House says they have respect for Islamic religious fatwa’s, yet the same White House is suing several Christian organizations who don’t comply with the various constructs of the Obama decrees.  Think about that for a moment.

I saved this picture from an Egyptian news outlet because the look on Jordan’s King Abdullah is priceless….

(Via New York Times) The United States has “great respect for the religious importance of a fatwa,” Mr. Kerry told reporters during a visit to Egypt on Saturday, alluding to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s much publicized edict against the development of nuclear weapons. But negotiators, Mr. Kerry said, needed an agreement that would “guarantee that Iran’s program will be peaceful now and peaceful forever.”

In congressional testimony last week, Mr. Kerry acknowledged what 47 Republicans wrote in a letter to the Iranian leadership last week — that any “executive agreement” like this one, made without a vote in Congress, would not be legally binding on future presidents. But neither are other “executive agreements,” including the diplomatic opening to China and the accord that rid Syria of many of its chemical weapons. The White House and Mr. Kerry argue that any future president is highly unlikely to rescind the accord, particularly if Iran is complying with its terms.  (read more)

The MSM and the Ferguson support networks are out in full force trying to deflect association from the Ferguson Shooter, Jeffrey L Williams, away from the larger Ferguson Activists.

However, a brief review of his social profile reflects he is directly aligned with the various constructs of the “F**k The Police” (FTP) movement. (more…)

UPDATES: Suspect name is Jeffrey Williams (age 20)

(Via New York Post) It’s the vast left-wing conspiracy.

Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett leaked to the press details of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private e-mail address during her time as secretary of state, sources tell me.

But she did so through people outside the ­administration, so the story couldn’t be traced to her or the White House.

In addition, at Jarrett’s behest, the State Department was ordered to launch a series of investigations into Hillary’s conduct at Foggy Bottom, including the use of her expense account, the disbursement of funds, her contact with foreign leaders and her possible collusion with the Clinton Foundation.

Six separate probes into Hillary’s performance have been ­going on at the State Department. I’m told that the e-mail scandal was timed to come out just as Hillary was on the verge of formally announcing that she was running for president — and that there’s more to come.

Members of Bill Clinton’s camp say the former president suspects the White House is the source of the leak and is furious. (more…)

Stunning New Dot Connections – Methinks the White House doth protest too much. I would love to see Josh Earnest try to square the circle of this recent revelation.

The facts of this story have existed in discussion since last year, yet failed to capture traction until the recent protestations of VP Joe Biden, and Secretary of State John Kerry.

From a radio interview in October of 2014 Mark Levin discusses with Michael Leeden the details of a secret message sent by candidate Senator Barack Obama to Iran in 2008 via a former Ambassador, William G Miller.

In essence the content of the communique was Senator Obama telling the Iranian government not to negotiate with the outgoing George Bush administration because Obama was more friendly toward the position of Iran and he would work to structure a more favorable outcome to the Iranian people.

Here’s audio of the 2014 conversation between Levin and Leeden:

It is a remarkable revelation given the level of apoplectic response recently from the White House and State Dept. to a rather innocuous “open letter” from 47 Senators. (more…)

New York – A 24-year-old man was slashed across the throat by a stranger who yelled in Spanish, “I’m going to kill you, white boy,” police said Friday. But the victim understands Spanish and was able to tell police what happened. Cops are calling the Queens incident a hate crime and hunting the suspect. The attack occurred at 2:20 a.m. Thursday in Ridgewood.

Police said the victim was walking with his girlfriend on Seneca Ave. near Gates Ave., when the attacker ran up to him, yelled the threat and cut the victim from an ear to the middle of his throat.

The attacker, 25 to 30 years old, about 5-foot-8, with a medium build, then ran off with his girlfriend [as seen in video above], who was standing nearby and acting as a lookout, cops said. The victim received dozens of stitches to close his wounds and was later released from the hospital. (link)

At the end of January the first reports surfaced of a coordinated effort between the White House and State Department to use the construct of OFA (Organizing For America), the activist group who spearheaded the voter activity for President Obama, to assist an Israeli opposition group known as V15.

V15 is described as a “grassroots” movement intended to remove Benjamin Netanyahu from office.   The national field director from President Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign, Jeremy Bird, went to Israel to assist V15 in the mirror image campaign strategy and message of OFA. 

OFA was/is the Astroturf political movement funded by Large Democrat Donors and Left-Wing Organizations which helped elect President Barack Obama.

The U.S. State Department gave money to V15 for use in Israel.  V15 is supporting Netanyahu’s opponent, Isaac Herzog.   V15 is saying they are not using the money from the State Dept, delivered via OneVoice, to eliminate Netanyahu, but rather just to help their GOTV organizational efforts.

However, simultaneous to Jeremy Bird joining the V15 movement, Joe Biden and John Kerry met with Isaac Herzog in Germany.  It is brutally obvious Joe Biden and John Kerry, along with the White House and State Department, are trying to remove Benjamin Netanyahu.   Now a congressional probe has been launched.

A fellow named John Muhammad identified himself as city manager of the tiny north county village of Uplands Park during a live interview Thursday night on FOX News channel. Mr. Muhammad then went on a bizarre diatribe to say he, and his community, believed the KKK or the police themselves were the shooters.

Beyond the jaw dropping protestations about the police shooting another slight problem is Mr. Muhammad is not a “city manager”. Actually, not even close. First, a reminder of his interview:

Apparently prior to Mr. Muhammad showing up on TV he tweeted THIS:

So who exactly is John Muhammad? (more…)
