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)

New York – One of Eric Garner’s daughters marked Christmas Day by spreading personal information about an NYPD cop who was present during the chokehold death of her father — outraging officers still reeling from last weekend’s execution-style slayings of two policemen in Brooklyn.
Erica Garner tweeted that cop Justin D’Amico was “another officer that helped killed [sic] my dad,” and directed her 5,000-plus Twitter followers to a Web page that lists ­addresses for D’Amico and five possible relatives.
The information was viewed about 500 times before Garner’s stunning tweet was deleted following inquiries by The Post. (more…)

When asked to explain my belief that Obama’s presidency was a construction created from approximately 10 years of pre-thought exquisitely planned detail, many people are puzzled by my reasoning.
The names of Emanuel, Plouffe, Axelrod, Jarrett and Holder are the visible names, but not the most consequential – nor the subjects worth researching. While most people reference the aforementioned when thinking about how a Junior Senator becomes Chief Executive; and indeed there is some factual reasoning toward that end, the executive office itself was not the majority maneuver.

If you peel back the layers to the Milli Vanilli roadshow – what you will notice is the strategy of putting specific ideologies into the legal affairs offices of all the “non-political” constructs. The Pentagon office of legal counsel, for example, can handcuff the activity of the Pentagon with legal opinion in opposition to the traditional goals of the organization (See Jeh Johnson).
Likewise the CIA office of legal counsel, can have a similar impact on actual outcomes and steer policy. If you want to find out what’s more consequential than the proverbial executive ‘pen and phone’, get to understand the legal counsel who can stop any activity they desire just by writing adverse legal opinion. The legal opinion does not need to meet the criteria of professional review to block activity – indeed most of the time it would be shredded by exterior legal analysis – their goal is not legal standing per se’, the goal is policy influence.

Many people are frustrated by the lack of information and what appears to be mulching the little bits we do know into agonizing over analysis.

Buck up. What you don’t see on these pages is our pressured back channel efforts to pry loose critical information that we believe will ultimately bring Justice For Jessica. Those efforts are synergetic with, and dependent upon, those who will rise on her behalf remaining vocal in their desire to be unrelenting; to be wolverine.
Nothing worthwhile is ever easy. To find the Truth in the Zimmerman case we faced significant foes, but also saw support from those who believe in the judicial system.  That entire construct was based on massive, intentional and institutional lies.   Lies the media were intentionally selling and promoting.  Yet, truth prevailed.
To find the Truth in the Wilson/Brown case we faced significant foes, but also saw support from those who believe in the principles of the judiciary system.  Again the media was the biggest enemy – and yet again, truth prevailed.  (more…)

(New York) Police have increased security at two New York City stationhouses while investigating threats against them in the wake of the deadly shootings of two officers last weekend.

As of early this morning NYPD swat team members were stationed 79th and 81st precinct stationhouses after a member of the Baltimore-based Black Guerrilla Family was allegedly overheard planning a ‘shoot out’ at those locations.
Emergency Services Unit officers were stationed at those same Brooklyn precincts as of Tuesday.
Police said on Wednesday they were remaining vigilant while investigating the origin of the threats. (more…)

At approximately 11:15 PM on December 23, 2014, a police officer with the City of Berkeley was responding to the Mobile Gas Station located at 6800 N. Hanley when he observed two male subjects on the side of the building. The Berkeley Police Officer exited his vehicle and approached the subjects when one of the men, Antonio Martin, pulled a handgun and pointed it at the officer. Fearing for his life, the Berkeley Officer fired several shots, striking the subject, fatally wounding him. The second subject fled the scene. The Berkeley Police Department requested the St. Louis County Police Department’s Crimes Against Persons Unit to handle the investigation. St. Louis County Police Detectives have recovered the deceased subject’s handgun at the scene

Saint Louis – A Berkeley police officer fired at least three shots at a suspect who pulled a gun on him, the St. Louis County Police chief said at a Wednesday morning news conference.
Police Chief Jon Belmar said the officer was responding to a report of stealing at a Mobil on the Run station about 11:15 p.m. Tuesday when the deadly shooting happened.
The officer saw two men on the parking lot in the 6800 block of North Hanley Road and began talking with them.
Belmar said one of the men approached the driver’s side of the vehicle. (more…)

For a full year and a half we have been saying that THREE specific actions would happen as a result of Mitch McConnell winning his re-election bid. They are:

* Full implementation of ObamaCare without change or removal
* Full comprehensive immigration reform to include amnesty.
* Full support for Common-Core federal education standards

These three elements are the central tenet of Tom Donohue and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Donohue and the CoC command the constructs of Mitch McConnell. There is NOTHING you can do now to stop it. The only chance was lost on May 11th during the Kentucky primary.
You can gnash your teeth, jump up and down, refuse to vote, call, write and email congress.  It just doesn’t matter – you are spitting into a hurricane.  That part of the battle was lost in May 2014. Quit thinking about it, it’s behind us now.
However, I would suggest to stop supporting any affiliate of Ann Coulter, Tucker Carlson, and any associate of like-minded alignment.  Do the same with blogs and websites who support that perspective.  Make that a New Years Resolution.

WASHINGTON DC – To incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), it is more important for Republicans to be the party of yes than go all-out to defund President Barack Obama’s executive amnesty. (more…)

Notes: ♦ Sheriff Darby gives the article information. ♦ Many “assisting” personnel have left – we reconciled this yesterday.
Still no accurate identification of: •Who is the lead investigator? •Who has custody of CCTV? •When did Darby first find out about case on 12/6/14? •When did Darby first visit scene? •Who was responsible for crime scene? etc….
(Via Therese Apel, The Clarion-Ledger) – While investigators are still mum on the specifics of the probe into the death of Jessica Chambers, the Panola County teen burned to death earlier this month, they say they’re making slow and steady progress.
Chambers, 19, was found on Herron Road in Courtland a little after 8 p.m. Dec. 6, walking away from her burning vehicle with burns over 98 percent of her body. Coroner Gracie Gulledge said the cause of the young woman’s death was thermal injury. Officials immediately classified it as a homicide.
With several agencies including the Panola County Sheriff’s Department, the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, the FBI, the ATF, the State Fire Marshal’s office, and the US Marshals Service involved, Sheriff Dennis Darby said a lot of the investigation operates on looking at the same information, witnesses, evidence and statements from many different angles.

Trayvon Martin was a 17-year-old (canonized by the media) thug who burglarized homes, used drugs, engaged in fights against weaker opponents, was a disciplinary problem in school – and constantly kicked out, had numerous encounters with diversionary criminal enforcement programs and was an all around troubled teen.  It was the media that made him Saint Skittles.
(Daily Beast) A little over a week ago, a group of people marched down the streets of Manhattan and called for police to be killed. But exactly who cried out for violence has been something of a mystery, as New York goes through its most tense moment in more than a decade.

Evidence from photos, videos, social-media posts and interviews suggest that a group—the New York chapter of the Trayvon Martin Organizing Committee, or TMOC—might have been involved. There is no definitive proof that TMOC led the call for dead cops, but there is a web of circumstantial ties with the group at its center. (more…)
