When will America Jail their Banksters?

The most dramatic contrast in the rule of law against the architects of financial theft can be seen in the way America protects their banksters and the accountability that Iceland imposed on their financial crooks. The fact that the orthodox financial press refuses to cover the incarceration of Iceland’s Bankers Face 74 Years in Prison While US Banks Profit After Your Bailout, is clear proof who really controls the political and economic institutions in the United States. As for the courts, America has long ago shredded the rule of law in this country. “Five top bankers from Iceland’s two largest banks — Landsbankinn and Kaupþing — were found guilty of ...

A Florida middle school girl was reportedly given detention after she gave her friends a hug before the bell rang for classes to begin for the day. The Jackson Heights Middle School eight-grader told WKMG Tuesday the hug lasted “literally for a second.” The disputed contact has the girl’s parents questioning the Oviedo school’s policies. The Seminole County School District’s policy bans “inappropriate touching” but leaves the decision to reprimand students for breaking the code up to principals, according to WKMG. Jackson Heights bans any kind of hugging. The district told the station that detentions are only given out for repeated offenses. Kathy ...

US News After massive manhunt, Illinois cop’s death will be declared a suicide A northern Illinois police officer, whose death sparked a citywide search for clues, died of an apparent suicide, an official briefed on the investigation told The Associated Press. The Lake County Sheriff’s Office of Illinois has called a Wednesday news conference to announce “conclusive results” of the investigation. Lt. Charles Joseph Gliniewicz, a U.S. Army veteran affectionately known as “G.I. Joe,” radioed on Sept. 1 that he was chasing three suspicious men on foot. Backup officers later found his body 50 yards from his squad car. Gliniewicz was shot twice with his weapon. One ...
Cops Around the Country Quietly Begin Rebelling Against the Drug War

It is a rare occurrence when police officers in America organize to undermine the very Drug War they vociferously fight for politicians. Police Chief Leonard Campanello of the Gloucester, Massachusetts Police Department, however, did just that earlier this year when he decided to treat — not arrest — heroin addicts who came to his department seeking help. His revolutionary “ANGEL” program has proven successful for addicts and their families in Gloucester, but it has also inspired other departments across the country to adopt similar programs amid growing officer fatigue over the ineffectual arrest and incarceration of addicts.In May, Campanello announced via Facebook ...
MARCO RUBIO IS AN ANCHOR BABY AND NOT ELIGIBLE TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT! [Full Thread]

Yes you heard that right. At the time Marco Rubio was born in the United States neither of his parents were United States Citizens. Rubio was born in Miami, Florida on May 28, 1971, the second son and third child of Mario Rubio and Oria Garcia. His parents were Cubans who had immigrated to the United States in 1956 and were naturalized as U.S. citizens in 1975!. That makes little Marco an anchor baby. Don’t expect him to think like the average American. He has now both said and shown us he doesn’t respect the office of the senate, and is not to be trusted to the office of President! The question that remains is: DOES MARCO RUBIO MEET THE QUALIFICATIONS TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT? The ...
Marco Rubio spent lavishly on a GOP credit card, but some transactions are still secret

It has become legend in Florida political circles, a missing chapter in Marco Rubio's convoluted financial story: two years of credit card transactions from his time in the state House, when he and other Republican leaders freely spent party money.Details about the spending, which included repairs for Rubio's family minivan, emerged in his 2010 U.S. Senate race. But voters got only half the story because the candidate refused to disclose additional records. Now Sen. Rubio's past is under fresh scrutiny as he emerges as a top presidential prospect. During last week's debate he deflected questions about his financial discipline — most recently, he liquidated a retirement ...
The Facts About Dr. Ben Carson and Mannatech

The Facts About Dr. Ben Carson and Mannatech by Michael Patrick Leahy Breitbart 1 Nov 2015 As Dr. Ben Carson moves up in the polls, reporters across the political spectrum are zeroing in on his relationship with Mannatech, a Texas based food supplement company. But so far the discussion has generated more heat than light. Several national outlets, ranging from the far left Politifact, that “ruled” Carson’s claim that he “didn’t have an involvement” with Mannatech was FALSE, to the establishment GOP friendly National Review, where Jim Geraghty asserted Carson’s “declarations that ‘I didn’t have an involvement with them’ and ...
Lawmakers sound alarm over failing ObamaCare co-ops

Congressional lawmakers are raising alarm over the rapid collapse of several so-called ObamaCare "co-ops" -- government-backed alternative health plans -- that are failing, leaving tens of thousands of customers scrambling for coverage, and billions in taxpayer-funded startup loans at risk. To date, nearly half of the 23 co-ops established under the Affordable Care Act have gone or are expected to go under by the end of the year. The latest to be barred from selling insurance on the official marketplace is in Arizona. In a letter to the head of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Sens. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., pressed the Obama ...

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?The ...

This Russian airliner disaster is highly suspicious. They’re now saying an external impact brought this plane down. See the article here. There’s no way that ISIS had the type of surface-to-air missile that could bring down this bird unless the United States or Saudi Arabia gave it to them. I wouldn’t rule it out, but I doubt it at this point. Some geniuses are saying it was a bomb placed on board. Hey guys, that’s not an “external impact”, that’s called an internal explosion. We know what that does because we’ve seen that before when a 747 was brought down over Scotland with one back in the day. There hasn’t been found any wreckage that says it ...
Isn’t It Funny? (Conservative Drug Warriors)

Not all comedians are in comedy clubs or on Saturday Night Live. Many of them are ordinary, run-of-the-mill conservatives. And many of them live in my state of Florida. What makes these comedians even funnier than most others is that it is not what they say that is so funny, it is what they don’t say—about marijuana. In the election in 2014, there was on the Florida ballot for the first time a proposed constitutional amendment to legalize the medical use of marijuana. It needed at least 60 percent of the vote to pass, but fell short with only about 57.5 percent. The Florida Supreme Court recently set a date of December 8 to hear oral arguments on a new proposed medical marijuana ...

Bobby Jindal, the Louisiana governor who has been relegated to the undercard debate throughout the GOP presidential race, has edged out former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in a new poll of Iowa. Jindal scored 6 percent support in the survey from Public Policy Polling (PPP), one percentage point ahead of Bush, though within the poll’s 3.9 percent margin of error.

A newly leaked internal DHS memorandum produced for an off-the-record agency conclave reveals that the Obama administration is actively planning to circumvent a federal court injunction that suspended part of last November’s deferral-based amnesty initiative. The document, apparently prepared as follow-up from a DHS “Regulations Retreat” last summer, appears sure to re-ignite concerns in Congress as well as federal judges in the Fifth Circuit. The Administration has already been criticized from the bench for handing out work permits to hundreds of thousands of deferred action beneficiaries, in direct violation of a district court’s order. With the Fifth Circuit Court of ...

GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush said he did not see a 112-page internal memo by his campaign that included a presentation to donors on why Sen. Marco Rubio was a "risky bet" before the document became public. "That's not a hopeful tactic," host Chuck Todd told Bush on NBC's "Meet the Press," in a reference to the candidate's comments earlier in the interview that he wants to deliver a hopeful, optimistic and aspirational message through his campaign. "I didn't see it," Bush answered. "It's your campaign.... You don't know this memo? You don't know this PowerPoint?" Todd asked about the memo, obtained by ...

sultanknish.blogspot.com The Death of the American Welfare State Posted by Daniel Greenfield @ the Sultan Knish blog In 1935, the year that FDR signed the Social Security Act into law, the birth rate was 18.7 per 1,000. In 1940, when the first monthly check was issued, it had gone up to 19.4. By 1954, when Disability had been added, the birth rate at the heart of the Baby Boom stood at 25.3. In a nation of 163 million people, 4 million babies were being born each year. By 1965, when Medicare was plugged in, the birth rate had fallen back to 19.4. For the first time in ten years fewer than 4 million babies had been born in a country of 195 million. Medicare had been added in the same ...

The New American – by Warren Mass During a rare after-midnight session on October 30, the Republican–controlled Senate voted 64 to 35 to pass the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, which began its life in the Republican-controlled House as H.R. 1314. The account of how outgoing House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) put together the budget by striking deals with members of the White House staff, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), and Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was documented in an article posted by The New American on October 27. The new budget not only increases spending by more than $100 billion, it also ...

DES MOINES — Former Florida governor Jeb Bush took to the stage in Iowa on Saturday a humbled man. “Iowans are discerning voters,” Bush told some 2,000 potential caucus-goers at the Iowa GOP’s Growth and Opportunity Party on Saturday. “They’re informed voters, they’re nice, and they treat you with respect.” “Poll numbers go up, and they go down,” he added. “When they go down, you don’t insult Iowa voters because they are the same discerning voters.” [snip] ----- Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) made the issue his standout moment on the debate stage Wednesday, and it was one of the most well-received portions of his speech at the ...
Student Accused of Promoting Gang Culture for Wearing American Flag Shirt

A 12-year-old student in California was forced to turn his American flag t-shirt inside-out last week after administrators claimed it was “gang related.” Dustin Cole, an honors student at Yuba Gardens Intermediate school, says he was approached by school staff who argued that the t-shirt, which features items from both the American and California flag, violated the district’s dress code. Cole’s mother, Lori Carpenter, says she first became aware of the issue after Cole came home with his shirt on inside-out. “I asked him why,” Carpenter told Fox40. “He said he was ‘dress coded’ at school because the stars were gang related.” ...

He just isn't all that good at this. And he knows it. There's no other conclusion that you could draw after watching Jeb Bush flail in Wednesday night's Republican presidential debate. Bush looked overmatched and lost — an image made all the worse by the fact that he was positioned on the stage in Boulder, Colo., next to Marco Rubio, his one-time political mentee but now quite clearly his superior in the race. Bush's attempt to attack Rubio was a metaphor not only for his debate performance but for his campaign. Knowing he needed to land a clean punch on Rubio, Bush piggybacked off a question from the moderators about Rubio's sparse attendance record in the Senate ...

The incident began when Jones experienced car trouble following a performance. The police have been suspiciously tight-lipped since the killing, according to the family.
