Remington Firearms Closes Operations In New York – Announces Relocation to Alabama

In March of 2011 Senator Chuck Schumer posted the following announcement:

Chuck Schumer close up

Today, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer joined Remington officials and plant employees to announce that Bushmaster Firearms is relocating a manufacturing facility from Windham, Maine to Ilion, NY, bringing over forty new jobs to Central New York in the process.   Schumer has been a long-time supporter of manufacturing at the Remington plant, urging top Army officials to open up competition for the Army’s small arms contracts to other U.S. manufacturers and domestic producers across the country like the Ilion, New York-based Remington. Today, Schumer applauded Remington’s decision to add new jobs to the productive and capable work force already making the factory an economic powerhouse in the Mohawk Valley.

What a great day for Remington’s Ilion plant, the Mohawk Valley, and Central New York’s economy,” said Senator Schumer. “Thanks to Remington’s continued confidence in this capable workforce, we’re going to see even more good-paying jobs at the plant, creating positive ripple effects throughout the region.

Benham Brothers Appear To Be Latest Victims of DOJ “Operation Chokepoint”… Suntrust Bank Drops Access Closes Business Accounts / Ties…

If you are unfamiliar with the Dept. of Justice “Operation Chokepoint” you are not alone.  Details are challenging to work out, but essentially it’s a stealth directive (operation) from the Eric Holder DOJ to identify “at risk profiles” within the banking industry and ‘choke off’ the selected individual(s), and businesses, from access to financial services (banking).

Essentially if you find yourself identified in the DOJ crosshairs – the banking industry is instructed to close down your accounts and access to services.    It’s like the IRS leverage, only applied to individuals and not organizations.   More info HERE.

President Obama’s BFF Caught Behaving Badly – Turkey’s Prime Minister Erdogan Punches Protester, While His Staff Kick and Beat Them

Turkey has been an intentionally ignored hotbed of protests against hardline islamofascism.   Then a horrible mining accident happened recently with almost 300 dead miners.   Emotions are raw and tensions are high.   Into this mix comes a heavy handed Erdogan.    

TURKEY – […]  Reports allege that the young man, wearing a blue t-shirt, chanted slogans critical of Erdoğan and then entered the store. Erdoğan then followed the protester inside, grabbed the man and then punched him two or three times, according to eyewitness reports.

The owner of the store corroborated the reports, saying that he saw surveillance camera footage showing that Erdoğan was punching a man, adding, “The bodyguards took away the footage and suggested that I not mention the issue.”

A video of the incident shared on the popular video-sharing platform YouTube shows Erdoğan telling the protester, “Come next to me and boo me,” before walking up to the one man into the store then. At one point during the video Erdoğan grabs the protestor and punches him. (more…)

Eleanor Clift Claims Ambassador Chris Stevens ‘Was Not Murdered’ – She’s Convinced Herself Of It… Somehow

Yes, I guess one could say that Eleanor Clift is “gaslighting“.  But what’s remarkable is the strength of her position that Ambassador Stevens wasn’t murdered. In a recent Daily Beast Column she advances the same position. Here’s where it first began:

Clift also writes for the Daily Beast, and to give you some perspective on how she can justify her position here’s how she follows up: (more…)

Oprah’s OWN Network To Produce Documentary Series About Michael Sam In Training Camp…

Well I guess that answers my previous question about whether Mr. Sam wanted to be an NFL football player or something else.  

Apparently something else.

Why else would you selfishly plan to put your teammates through the distraction of a media crew following you around training camp, unless your real goal was something other than being an exceptional athlete, developing team cohesion and making the cut.

I suspected all along since Sam originally and publicly “came out”.    I mean, no-one was asking about his sexual orientation so initially it never made sense he would hold a presser to proclaim it to the world.    The signals were there in that first well advertised press announcement.   Something other than football was being planned, organized, coordinated and strategized.

Stay Sharp Fellow Members Of The Resistance – Most Are Assigning The WRONG Motivation To The Firing of NYT Editor Jill Abramson…

Yes, it’s true that New York Times editor Jill Abramson was recently “fired” and replaced.    However, not because she’s a woman who asked for a pay raise – but rather because she has done the most sacrilegious offense to the towers of progdom, she exposed the falsehood behind the White House claims of transparency.

It’s an easy mistake to make, because much of the recent leftist push has been structured around the so called other sides’ “war on women”, and women’s issues  in general (See #BringBackOurGirls et al and also this).

Yes, indeed the intentional strategy to try and retain power for Democrats and the White house has been to slide “racism” -as a leveraging tool- over a bit, and to make room for “sexism” leverage to take a greater role.    [Democrats always use victimization as substantiation for their social justice campaign and agenda(s).]  With Hillary running in 2016 the shift to sexism serves multiple goals.  (more…)

“Gaslighting” (and Barack Obama)

From Wikipedia:

Gaslighting is a form of mental abuse in which false information is presented with the intent of making a victim doubt his or her own memory, perception, and sanity. Instances may range simply from the denial by an abuser that previous abusive incidents ever occurred, up to the staging of bizarre events by the abuser with the intention of disorienting the victim.

The term “gaslighting” comes from the play Gas Light and its film adaptations. The term is now also used in clinical and research literature.

On that note, here is Bill Whittle’s latest FIREWALL:

ObamaCare Contractor Paid $1.2 Billion – Employees Sit Around All Day Doing Nothing….

ST. LOUIS (CBS St. Louis) – Employees at an Obamacare processing center in Missouri have very little work and are often paid to do nothing, a whistleblower tells KMOV-TV.

The main thing is that the Data Entry side does not have hardly any work to do. They’re told to sit at their computers and hit the refresh button every ten minutes- no more than every ten minutes. They’re monitored to hopefully look for an application. Their goals are set to process two applications per month and some people are not even able to do that,” the employee told the station, which withheld the employee’s identity.

Serco, an a British-based staffing company, was awarded a 12-year federal government contract worth more than $1.2 billion to process Obamacare paper applications. (more…)
