Huffington Post Journalist Fired and Scared for Life After Questioning Hillary’s Health
Post Date: 2016-08-31 10:09:10 by Deckard

Over the weekend ZeroHedge posted about how the media’s coverage of Trump and Clinton’s health had become “outright bizarre” (see “American Electorate Loses As Partisan Media Coverage Of Candidate Health Turns Outright Bizarre“). They also asked whether Google had taken measures to censor searches related to Hillary’s health condition (see “Is Google Censoring Search Results To Protect Hillary?“). Turns out that the Huffington Post may have just joined in on the bizarre behavior by censoring a journalist with the audacity to question Hillary’s health. On Sunday night, an obviously shaken Huffington Post contributor, David ...
Rick Perry to take a turn on 'Dancing With The Stars'

Season 23 of ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" will have the usual odd assortment of celebrities: Vanilla Ice, Ryan Lochte, Marilu Henner. But it will also have former Texas governor and two-time presidential candidate Rick Perry. "I'm de-dicated to helping #veterans however possible, and I'm going to use @dancingabc as a stage to do that. #DWTS," Perry said on Twitter Tuesday morning. "Dancing With the Stars" began in 2005 and has made a solid Top 10 franchise out of coaxing dancing performances out of athletes, musicians, up-and-comers and slightly-past-sell-by-date celebrities. And two politicians. Perry, 66, whose partner will be Emma Slater, is ...
Mizzou under fire after 6 dogs used for research are killed

A California-based group and its supporters nationwide are taking issue with research at the University of Missouri-Columbia that resulted in the deaths of six dogs. After filing a lawsuit against Mizzou over access to documents for animals used in research on the Columbia campus, organizers at the Beagle Freedom Project started looking into the university’s published research and found a study that raised a red flag for the group. The study, published in the 2016 Journal of Veterinary Ophthalmology, was testing treatment for damaged corneas. Beagles were used in the study because dogs’ eyes are similar to human eyes.

Homeland eyes special declaration to take charge of elections

Even before the FBI identified new cyber attacks on two separate state election boards, the Department of Homeland Security began considering declaring the election a "critical infrastructure," giving it the same control over security it has over Wall Street and and the electric power grid. The latest admissions of attacks could speed up that effort possibly including the upcoming presidential election, according to officials. "We should carefully consider whether our election system, our election process, is critical infrastructure like the financial sector, like the power grid," Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said. "There's a vital national ...
A Candidate's Death Could Delay or Eliminate the Presidential Election

Chaos would ensue if a vacancy emerges near Election Day. American democracy would break new ground if Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump left a presidential ticket vacancy before the Nov. 8 general election. The presidential election could be delayed or scrapped altogether if conspiracy theories become predictive and a candidate dies or drops out before Nov. 8. The perhaps equally startling alternative, if there's enough time: Small groups of people hand-picking a replacement pursuant to obscure party rules. The scenarios have been seriously considered by few outside of the legal community and likely are too morbid for polite discussion in politically mixed company. But prominent law ...
US taxpayers could end up covering Apple's back taxes in Ireland
Post Date: 2016-08-30 20:27:28 by Justified

European authorities have clamped down on a special deal between Apple (AAPL) and Irish tax authorities, saying the arrangement uniquely favors Apple and is unavailable to other companies. Nixing the deal—which lowered taxes on much of Apple’s foreign income to virtually nothing—will force Apple to pay taxes in Ireland at the higher rate other companies pay. The bill: about $14.5 billion for the past 10 years, plus interest. But Apple may get reimbursed for all of that by an unlikely benefactor: the US taxpayer. “It’s extremely possible the US taxpayer will have to pay this bill,” says Stuart Gibson, a former government tax official who’s now editor of ...
Surgeons Plan Head Transplant for Disabled Man

A Chinese surgeon and a controversial Italian neurosurgeon will attempt to transplant the head of a terminally disabled Russian man onto a body that could allow him to survive. The distant concepts of science fiction are once again becoming reality, just as they have before. I recently spoke to a consultant on the brilliant Deus Ex: Mankind Divided about how their cast of augmented characters might fare in our own immediate future. But, if anything, the cast of this futurist medical drama is even more dramatic. One of the surgeons has a bronzed pig ear proudly displayed in his office. The other compares himself favorably to Frankenstein and Josef Mengele while he sells souvenirs of ...
Why the F-35 could 'never in a million years' out dogfight the RAF Typhoon or the Russian Su-35
Post Date: 2016-08-30 19:27:43 by Justified
6 Comments
In a recent interview with Business Insider, Justin Bronk, a research fellow specializing in combat airpower at the Royal United Services Institute, dropped a bombshell about the US's $1 trillion F-35 program: "The F-35 cannot out dogfight a Typhoon (or a Su-35), never in a million years." In earlier stages of the F-35's development, some bad reports came out claiming it lost in simulated dogfights to the F-16, a legacy platform the F-35 intends to replace. Lately, the news coming out about the F-35's dogfighting ability has taken a visible turn to the positive, but dogfighting was never the main purpose or strong suit of the Joint Strike Fighter. For that reason, ...
Michigan Medical Marijuana Act (MMMA), Drafted by DC Marijuana Lobbying Group, Is a Mess

Michigan Medical Marijuana Act (MMMA), Drafted by DC Marijuana Lobbying Group, Is a Mess The Michigan Medical Marijuana Act (MMMA) is based on model legislation provided by the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP), a Washington, D.C.-based lobbying group organized to decriminalize both the medical and recreational uses of marijuana. The statutory language of the MMMA was drafted by Karen O’Keefe, the Director of State Policies at the MPP in Washington, D.C. It did not come from the legislature, but came as Proposition 1 in 2008. It is a mess. Marijuana remains a Schedule I drug pursuant to Michigan Law. People v Redden, 290 Mich App 65, 799 N.W. 2d 184 (2010) Opinion of the Court ...
Climate King: Obama will bypass Senate, ratify Paris climate accord himself during trip to China

President Obama is prepared to enter into the Paris climate accord as early as this week even though Republicans have insisted that the pact must be ratified by the Senate, according to a report out of China. The South China Morning Post reported that Mr. Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping are “set to jointly announce their ratification” of the ambitious international climate-change pact on Friday, two days before the start of the 11th G-20 Summit in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. “There are still some uncertainties from the U.S. side due to the complicated U.S. system in ratifying such a treaty, but the announcement is still quite likely to be ready by Sept. 2,” an unnamed ...

Is it a crime to say what is true? Unfortunately, West Virginia University (WVU) is telling its 29,000 students they better change the way they speak in order to pander to the transgender revolution. In other words: If a biological man wants to be treated like a woman, students must treat him as a "her." The university issued guidelines for "proper pronoun usage." Pronouns such as he, him and his are tossed out and replaced with ‘ve,’ ‘ver’ and ‘vis.’ To enforce radical equality, bizarre gender-neutral terms such as ‘zis’, ‘hirs’, ‘eirs’, ‘vers’, and ‘ters’ are being foisted on ...

If you think the Black Lives Matter movement is a passing fringe, the following video is going to scare the hell out of you. According to one teacher from New York, who was compelled to expose the blatant liberal brainwashing being imposed on teachers and students alike, “Our schools are no longer part of the solution, but have become part of the problem. They are indoctrinating our children to hate and distrust not only police officers, but America itself.” The teacher works for Uncommon Schools, a “network of public, charter schools in New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts,” and has documented some experiences in a video for the world to see – experiences you ...
A symbol of hatred or history? Obama quietly bans Confederate flag at cemeteries

The Veterans Affairs Department quietly moved this month to ban flying of Confederate flags from fixed flagpoles at the cemeteries it runs, striking yet another blow against the controversial emblem.Congress had debated and rejected that change, but the Obama administration decided to move forward anyway, saying it was unilaterally imposing the restrictions.“In particular, we will amend our policy to make clear that Confederal flags will not be displayed from any permanently fixed flagpole in a national cemetery at any time,” wrote Ronald E. Walters, under secretary for memorial affairs at the VA. Rep. Jared Huffman, a California Democrat who had pushed for the changes, declared ...
Conservatives Just Don’t Get It on the Drug War

There are many differences between conservatives and libertarians. And a great many more if one looks at the actions of conservatives and ignores the libertarian-sounding rhetoric they spout when they are attacking liberals, appealing to members of their libertarian-leaning base, or suckering libertarians into voting Republican. One of the main things that conservatives just don’t get is the war on drugs. There are some exceptions, of course, but mainly just regarding marijuana. Few conservatives are willing to go on record as opposing lock, stock, and barrel the government’s war on drugs of every kind. The latest conservative who just doesn’t get it is Phil Valentine, author ...

VIDEO – Bill Clinton: Rebuild Detroit with Syrian Refugees

In a previously little-noticed video from February at the Clinton Global Initiative, former President Bill Clinton suggested that the U.S. use Syrian refugees to rebuild Detroit. “The truth is that the big loser in this over the long run is going to be Syria. This is an enormous opportunity for Americans,” Bill Clinton said about the Syrian migrant crisis. Detroit has 10,000 empty, structurally sound houses—10,000. And lot of jobs to be had repairing those houses. Detroit just came out of bankruptcy and the mayor’s trying to do an innovative sort of urban homesteading program there. But it just gives you an example of what could be done. And I think any of us who have ...

For months now, one official after another, whether retired or still in the administration, pops up accusing Hussein Soetoro and/or Hillary Clinton of some impropriety, crime or basically not performing their job duties. The latest to level these complaints against the Criminal-in-Chief and the former Secretary of State is retired Lt. General Michael Flynn. Flynn, who served two years under Hussein Soetoro as the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), informed Breitbart News in an exclusive interview surrounding his book The Field of Flight stated both Clinton and Soetoro refused to hear intelligence that “did not fit their ‘happy talk’ narrative about the Middle ...

Gene Wilder Dies at 83; Star of ‘Willy Wonka’ and ‘Young Frankenstein’

Gene Wilder, who established himself as one of America’s foremost comic actors with his delightfully neurotic performances in three films directed by Mel Brooks; his eccentric star turn in the family classic “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”; and his winning chemistry with Richard Pryor in the box-office smash “Stir Crazy,” died early Monday morning at his home in Stamford, Conn. He was 83. A nephew, the filmmaker Jordan Walker-Pearlman, confirmed his death in a statement, saying the cause was complications of Alzheimer’s disease. Mr. Wilder’s rule for comedy was simple: Don’t try to make it funny; try to make it real. “I’m an actor, ...

Describing the Clinton Global Initiative’s events as “creepy,” a journalist and onetime moderator for forums hosted by the foundation says there’s no doubt the Clintons sold access. “I’ve spent a decent amount of time at the Clinton Global Initiative,” Davidson said during a podcast for Slate. He continued: And there is a real creepy vibe, to me, personally, at the Clinton Global Initiative. It seems, to me, that it is all about buying access. It is incredibly expensive just to go to the thing … and there are sort-of these explicit ways in which you get access. You pay more money to get more access to political leaders and to really rich people ...

Last month, Governor Paul LePage of Maine (shown) was informed by the Obama administration that he would have to send to the U.S. Department of Commerce classified personal data on all recipients of state welfare funds. Specifically, LePage was being commanded to give the feds “access to data from [his] state’s food assistance, family assistance and welfare programs.” The strong arm tactic didn’t set well with LePage, and his response is refreshing: This is a bold request, considering almost every request Maine makes of the federal government is denied and our efforts at reform are generally met with a resounding "no." The Obama administration has been ...
