December 27, 2014; Washington, D.C. – In a year-end conversation with NPR News, President Obama told Morning Edition Host Steve Inskeep that low morale around race relations in the U.S. is exaggerated by the national conversation around recent violence and not an accurate reflection of the state of affairs around the country.
When asked if the U.S. is more racially divided than it was when he took office six years ago, the President responded:

“No, I actually think that it’s probably in its day-to-day interactions less racially divided.” (more)

The grievance playbook is consistently predictable.  Al Sharpton appears at a press conference this morning and proclaims himself as the victim in the assassination murders of two New York police officers.  The professionally Black Grievance Industry (BGI) and the professionally Islamist Grievance Industry (CAIR) use the exact same script when the consequences of their own actions confront them; they spin to become the victim…. 
(New York) It’s all about him.
The Rev. Al Sharpton claimed Sunday that he’s received death threats in the wake of execution-style murders of two NYPD officers in Brooklyn.
Sharpton, appearing alongside the wife and mother of Eric Garner, played a voicemail for reporters purportedly of a racist threat made against him.

“Hey n—-r, stop killing innocent people, I’m going to get you!” according to the barely audible recording.
The voice mail also included three f-bombs that went over live television in New York.
Sharpton also took umbrage with police union leaders who have blamed Mayor de Blasio for allegedly inciting violence against cops. (more…)

Officer Wenjian Liu ~ and ~ Officer Rafael Ramos RIP 

Good for the NYPD. Mayor De Blasio has their blood on his hands.
You might hear media reports about this, and you might hear the media say “a few” police turned their back. Not correct.
Here’s the proof – As you can clearly see in this video EVERY COP turned their back on the Mayor creating a pathway showing only their backs on both sides of him as he walked past.

The national legacy media will be desperate to avoid connecting the simple and obvious dots.

However, while the stories are only just now coming out, when the final analysis is written you will be unable to avoid the obvious motives.  In addition, we predict you will find the suspects will have travelled from destinations previously have outlined as “hotbeds” of racial division and racial-hatred: (Baltimore, MD – Philadelphia, PA – Atlanta, GA – Saint Louis, MO etc.)  You cannot cover this petri dish once it reaches a critical mass.

Watch the stories closely as they unfold and you will be able to trace the origin of the hate to a familiar overlay which CANNOT, despite the media aversion, be avoided.
In the past 24 hours two cities see ambush attacks against police. Two cities, Saint Louis and New York. What do Saint Louis and New York have in common? Yes, the obvious, Mike Brown and Eric Garner controversial deaths.
While the Saint Louis motive is being avoided, it appears to be hatred against police for the Mike Brown shooting.  The New York suspect attack motive will reflect hatred for the police based on the Eric Garner killing.  (more…)

President Obama and Cuba Policy – Summary:

• Presidents Barack Obama and Raul Castro announced the restoration of full relations between the United States and Cuba, along with a raft of reconciliatory actions. Obama said the US and Cuba have chosen “to cut loose the shackles of the past”, and Castro called for the embargo to end.
• Cuba released American Alan Gross from prison after nearly five years of captivity. Cuba also freed a spy held for more than 20 years, an act the US intelligence chief called “a fitting closure to a Cold World chapter”.

• The US announced overhauls to commerce, travel and internet restrictions, and the restoration of an American embassy in Havana. Cuba said it will release 53 political prisoners, allow greater internet services, and work with international groups like the UN. The White House refused to rule out a visit by President Obama to Havana.

WASHINGTON DC – President Obama has issued a form of executive action known as the presidential memorandum more often than any other president in history — using it to take unilateral action even as he has signed fewer executive orders.
When these two forms of directives are taken together, Obama is on track to take more high-level executive actions than any president since Harry Truman battled the “Do Nothing Congress” almost seven decades ago, according to a USA TODAY review of presidential documents.
Obama has issued executive orders to give federal employees the day after Christmas off, to impose economic sanctions and to determine how national secrets are classified. He’s used presidential memoranda to make policy on gun control, immigration and labor regulations. Tuesday, he used a memorandum to declare Bristol Bay, Alaska, off-limits to oil and gas exploration.

(Via Daily Mail) A manhunt has been launched to find two young men who were filmed slapping and taunting an elderly man on a subway train in Chicago.
The men, both African American in their late teens or early 20s, towered over their victim as they laughed and jumped around him, hitting his head, on a CTA Blue Line train. At one point the slaps become so hard they are audible on the clip, which was filmed by their friend and posted on Facebook.

Though the man tries to kick back and gingerly lifts an arm to swipe at them, they cackle with laughter and jump out the way. (more…)

On Wednesday August 13th 2014 the FBI and local investigators sat down with Dorian Johnson in the office of his attorney, Freeman Bosley Jr. This was five days after the shooting death of his cohort, and strong arm robbery suspect, Michael Brown.
Wednesday August 13th was the day after Police Officer Darren Wilson had also given recorded statements to the investigators.
Prior to today the Federal Department of Justice had refused to release the official record and transcript of that interview with Dorian Johnson. Speculation has grown as to what the motives of the FBI would be to keep it hidden.
Apparently the FBI changed position and allowed Saint Louis Prosecutor to release the information.   Today the transcript was released.

The last federal budget was signed into law September 2007 by President Bush. Since then the past 7 fiscal years have been funded under continuing resolution bills.
In a sane world the Republicans would have only funded Fiscal Year 2015 through April, and taken the position of waiting to see President Obama’s budget proposal for FY 2016 which is due in February. (President Obama has never met a statutorily required budget submission deadline). Alas, another year funded by CR.
Via Politico – In a big win for House Republicans and President Barack Obama, the House passed a $1 trillion-plus funding bill Thursday night that will keep the government open into next year.
The final vote, which came after a high drama day of behind the scenes arm twisting and vote counting, was 219 to 206.
The Senate passed a two-day funding bill following the House vote, avoiding a government shutdown starting at midnight Thursday. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), however, warned that the “cromnibus,” as the massive spending package has come to be called on Capitol Hill, may not pass the Senate until Monday. (more…)

Forbes picks up on the IRS scandal being coordinated by the DOJ…
(Via Forbes)  Sadly, the 18 month investigation into the IRS targeting of conservative groups isn’t over, and it may be worse than anyone thought. A federal judge has broken loose more emails that the DOJ had surely hoped would never surface. The picture it reveals isn’t pretty. The documents prove that Lois Lerner met with DOJ’s Election Crimes Division a month before the 2010 elections.
It has to be embarrassing to the DOJ, which may not be the most impartial one to be investigating the IRS. In fact, the DOJ withheld over 800 pages of Lerner documents citing “taxpayer privacy” and “deliberative privilege.” Yet these internal DOJ documents show Ms. Lerner was talking to DOJ officials about prosecuting tax-exempt entities (yes, criminally!) two years before the IRS conceded there was inappropriate targeting.
