Another CNN Fail: Uses Wrong Photo to Promote Patty Hearst Docuseries
by Shifra on January 14, 2018Again using a wrong pic? Is it really so difficult to double-check before posting someone else’s photo? Via Fox News. CNN created a case of mistaken identity with its upcoming docuseries “The Radical Story of Patty Hearst,” based on the Jeffrey Toobin book. The news network has been promoting the series by using an image of Hearst that’s not her at all. Hearst posted the image online wondering, “Who is this poor woman (not me) that CNN is using in their promos for Jeffrey Toobin’s upcoming ‘original series.’ ” A family rep added to Page Six: “The picture isn’t Patricia. And that’s pretty indicative of the accuracy of this project in general. It’s riddled with falsehoods and inaccuracies.” Hearst is also...

Israeli Politicians: If Obama Protected Hezbollah Over Iran Deal, He Should Forfeit Nobel
by Shifra on December 20, 2017Maybe we could get Barack a more fitting prize – from a box of Cracker Jacks. Via Daily Caller. A damning report released Sunday by Politico chronicles how the Obama administration undid years of investigations into the terrorist organization Hezbollah in order to appease Iran and pave the way for the Iran deal. The report alleges that the Obama administration let terrorists walk free and halted law enforcement efforts against Hezbollah to help cement the former president’s foreign policy achievement. According to the report, the Obama administration’s backing off on the terrorist organization directly contributed to its growth and enrichment through money laundering and drug trade. It also made Hezbollah much more powerful and dangerous in the region. Politicians in...

Comey FBI Didn’t Alert US Officials of Russian Hacking Attempts
by Tammy on November 26, 2017Excellent work here by the Associated Press. Click through for the whole story. I will add a warning, however, that in this story there is still a *presumption* that the Russians had hacked the DNC server, but no one really knows to this day. Why? Because, as noted in the story, Comey’s FBI never seized the DNC server but worked off a “copy,” which he said was just a good. That’s simply idiotic and highlights what an incompetent and partisan menace Comey has always been. This coverage, however, is also a reminder about the hypocrisy and absurdity of the entire Obama administration. On one hand, Obama complained (when everyone thought Hillary was winning) that no one could actually think Russia...

Senator Feinstein Admits No Law Could Have Stopped Vegas Gunman
by Tammy on October 8, 2017But she keeps pushing for new laws anyway. Because Democrats never want to let a good crisis go to waste. All theatre, all the time, as they work to knowingly pass laws that won’t solve the particular problems we face but do give them more control over the population in general, while then doing nothing that will actually address the scourge of mass violence. Shameful. Via CBS. Sen. Dianne Feinstein told CBS “Face the Nation” no law would have stopped the Las Vegas shooter from killing 58 people and injuring more than 500 at a country music concert last week. The California Democrat made the comment as Congress debates how — or whether — to move forward on gun control...

‘Climate Scientist’ Who Manipulated Data Blames Hurricane Harvey on ‘Climate Change’
by Shifra on September 1, 2017If “climate change” is “settled science,” why the need to fudge the data? Via Investor’s Business Daily. ….Penn State meteorology professor Michael Mann has gained dubious renown for something no scientist desires: fiddling with data, and getting caught. In this case, it was temperature data. Mann’s famous “hockey stick” rendition of temperature and climate changes makes it appear as if temperatures began rising sharply in the 19th century as carbon dioxide from the Industrial Revolution began to build up, and then soared uncontrollably in recent years to near-record highs for the last millennium…. The only problem is, according to critics, Mann’s data were manipulated in such a way as to make them incorrect. Ironically, Mann published his hockey-stick paper in...

London’s Mayor Concerned About Rise in ‘Knife Crime,’ Calls for Crackdown on… Videos
by Shifra on August 10, 2017This, from the same mayor who demanded a reduction in “stop and search” by the police. I’m deeply concerned about the rise in knife crime. Internet giants must toughen guidelines & remove violent videos https://t.co/PlnLGfHUbZ — Mayor of London (@MayorofLondon) August 7, 2017 Via Daily Caller. We all remember how Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton blamed the Benghazi attack on a YouTube video. That didn’t work out for them very well, but it was almost six years ago. Time to give that old trick another try…. YouTube doesn’t make anybody do anything. You’ve got much bigger problems, Mr. Mayor, and they started long before anybody had the Internet. Stay safe, London! Just don’t be racist about it.

John Boehner: I Used to ‘Sneak Into’ White House to See Obama
by Shifra on July 26, 2017Did *Mrs.* Boehner know? Via CNS News. Former House Speaker John Boehner said at an event in Las Vegas last week that he used to “sneak into” the White House to see President Barack Obama to avoid scrutiny from the “right-wing press,” according to a report by the Washington Post, which obtained a videotape of Boehner’s remarks. Boehner also lamented the fact that Americans now have too many choices of where to go for news and information. “What’s making everything even worse today is because we have so much news, people get to choose where they get their news,” Boehner said, according to the Post. “It used to be we had three big TV networks, five big newspapers, and five...

Fraud News Network, er, CNN: Merkel Chose G20 Location To ‘Hurt’ Trump
by Shifra on July 9, 2017Just when you thought CNN could not possibly make bigger fools of themselves. Via Federalist. CNN’s international diplomatic editor Nic Robertson told viewers Wednesday that German Chancellor Angela Merkel is holding the G20 summit in Hamburg instead of a more remote location to humiliate Trump. However, the G20 site was selected more than a year ago, when all bets had Hillary Clinton winning the presidential election. On June 10, 2016, the Associated Press reported: The German government says it will host a summit of the Group of 20 major world economic powers in Hamburg on July 7 and 8 next year. The government said Friday that the meeting will likely be held at the northern port city’s congress center. The...

Psychiatrists Pushing to Repeal Remote Diagnosis Prohibition Are Big Dem Donors
by Shifra on June 28, 2017The “Goldwater Rule” was adopted by the American Psychiatric Association after the 1964 presidential election, when psychiatrists weighed in with their “diagnosis” of the Republican nominee, Barry Goldwater, without having had any contact with him. During the 1964 campaign, Fact Magazine published “The Unconscious of a Conservative: A Special Issue on the Mind of Barry Goldwater.” They asked 12,300 psychiatrists whether Barry Goldwater was “psychologically fit” to be president. 2,400 psychiatrists responded, and about 1,200 said that Goldwater was “unfit.” Two months later, Lyndon Baines Johnson won re-election by a landslide. In 1966, Barry Goldwater sued the now-defunct Fact Magazine and was awarded $75,000. (In those day, the sum was quite a “chunk of change.”) Since the adoption of the...

TSA May Soon Be Inspecting Our Books and Food
by Shifra on June 28, 2017They do promise not to notice what we are reading. Sure. Via The Week. The TSA began a new screening policy for paper products at airport checkpoints in Missouri last month, and now the agency’s branch in Sacramento, California, is testing out more invasive searches for books and food items. In the new system, passengers are required to take all reading material and food out of their carry-on luggage and place it in a separate bin. TSA screeners can “fan” through travelers’ books to see if anything is hidden in the pages, but agency officials insist they will not pay attention to the content. Critics have long argued passengers selected for extra screening are not chosen as randomly as the...

Libs Accidentally Fly Banner Attacking Nevada Republican… Over W. Virginia
by Shifra on June 27, 2017Hey, great job, Liberals! Via Free Beacon. Liberal activists in West Virginia accidentally flew an aerial message attacking a Republican senator representing a completely different state on the other side of the country. Reporters at the Charleston Gazette-Mail on Monday noticed a plane flying around West Virginia’s capital city with a banner reading, “SEN HELLER: KEEP YOUR WORD VOTE NO ON TRUMPCARE.” The only problem? Republican Sen. Dean Heller represents Nevada. The GOP senator representing West Virginia is Shelley Moore Capito…. Charleston, WV, looks to the sky and asks: "Who's Senator Heller?" Probably not the reaction organizers were seeking. It's @SenCapito, guys. pic.twitter.com/0omJAanKdX — Rob Byers (@RobByersWV) June 26, 2017

Fake News: WaPo Claims Trump Broke ‘Tradition’ of WH Ramadan Dinner
by Shifra on June 26, 2017Yet another example from the WaPo Fake News Paper, or, as Tammy calls it, “Jeff Bezos’ Blog” Via Breitbart. The establishment media became upset this weekend after President Donald Trump canceled the “White House Muslim Iftar Dinner tradition started by Thomas Jefferson.” But the media is wrong in every respect. Thomas Jefferson never held any Iftar dinner and only three out of 45 presidents ever hosted one, so there is no such “tradition” to cancel…. The often-used claim that Thomas Jefferson held the first Iftar dinner at the White House was trotted out by the Post’s Wang. She recounted the time when the diplomatic envoy from the Bey of Tunis, Sidi Soliman Melli Melli, visited Washington during Ramadan in 1805....

Video: Chuck Todd Interviews Bernie, Ignores Sanders Being Under FBI Investigation
by Shifra on June 26, 2017Memo to Chuck Todd: Bernie and Jane Sanders are under FBI investigation. Donald Trump is not. Via Daily Caller. Chuck Todd, the host of NBC’s “Meet The Press,” had seven minutes on Sunday to grill Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders about being the subject of an FBI investigation but let Sanders off the hook entirely. Todd asked Sanders about his rhetoric, about the Republican health care bill and about the struggling Democratic party, but he did not ask the socialist senator once about the investigation into himself and his wife. CBS News reported on Saturday that both Sanders and his wife are the subject of an FBI investigation in relation to bank fraud that Jane Sanders allegedly committed as the president...

Failed Candidate Ossoff Rails Against ‘Money in Politics’… After Spending $23M
by Shifra on June 22, 2017Jon Ossoff should really be railing against The Russians. Or Obstruction of Justice. Or something. Via Daily Caller. Failed Democratic candidate in the Georgia special election Jon Ossoff decried the rise of money in politics Tuesday before he completed the most expensive congressional race in U.S. history. Democrats raised and spent $23 million in favor of Ossoff’s bid against former Georgia Secretary of State Karen Handel, and a combined $50 million was spent in the race overall. The second most expensive congressional race was between former Reps. Allen West and Patrick Murphy. The two candidates combined spent $29.6 million in the race that ousted West from the lower chamber of Congress. “The role of money in politics is a major...
