The brother of Attkisson’s old boss at CBS turns out to be the guy who directed Ambassador Rice to deliver the Benghazi lies.    Is it a surprise her CBS boss would not let her dig in and do the investigative reporting ?

Sharyl Attkisson via Facebook – Newly-released documents reveal direct White House involvement in steering the public narrative about the September 11, 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya, toward that of a spontaneous protest that never happened. (more…)

V Stiviano, or whatever she’s calling herself this week, gives an interview to the LA Times, through her attorneys of course.

She swears she didn’t mean to boil the Donald’s bunny.  She’s devastated.  Devastated !  …She was a simple girl working on a doctoral thesis in waitressing while volunteer crime fighting and now needs legions of legal representatives….   

(LA Times)  V. Stiviano, the woman at the center of the Donald Sterling scandal, said she was “very saddened” by the NBA’s decision to ban him from the sport for life, her attorney said Tuesday.
V. Stiviano “never wanted any harm to Donald,” Calabasas lawyer Mac Nehoray of Calabasas told The Times. He said the 31-year-old is still reeling from the release of the recordings in which Sterling chastises her for associating with African Americans, including Magic Johnson.
He said that “someone released it for money” but it wasn’t Stiviano.  “My client is devastated that this got out,” he said.   […]  Stiviano’s lawyer said his client was a hard-working young woman who supported herself waitressing and volunteered helping crime victims before signing on to work as an “archivist” for Sterling.  (read more)

Washington DC – On Tuesday, an email obtained by the government watchdog Judicial Watch revealed that a senior American advisor informed then National Security Advisor Susan Rice to emphasize that the deadly 2012 attack on a U.S. consulate in Libya was the result of a spontaneous protest arising from an inflammatory YouTube video.

Transcripts later revealed that senior defense officials had informed the administration on the night of the assault that the event was a “terrorist attack.”
Fox’s intel correspondent Catherine Herridge reported that a September 14 emails links White House Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes advised Rice to focus on the YouTube video during her appearances on a variety of Sunday morning news programs:
Among the goals Rhodes outlined for Rice was for her “to underscore that these protests are rooted in an internet video, and not a broader failure of policy.”  (read with video)

“We are negotiating with him about giving more moneys to African American students at UCLA, and so we are in preliminary discussions,” Jenkins said.

(Los Angeles)  The NAACP said today they are still willing to work with Los Angeles Clippers’ owner Donald Sterling despite yanking an offer of a lifetime achievement award over an audio tape containing racist comments that Sterling allegedly made.

At a news conference today, NAACP Los Angeles president Leon Jenkins said that an audio recording that surfaced this weekend on TMZ, which purportedly had Sterling’s voice recorded making racist comments, was “devastating.”
But the organization would be open to talking to Sterling, with whom they’ve worked for nearly 20 years. (more…)

A little more than a week after the mysterious Malaysian Flight MH370 disappearance, and the day after a report that Boeing had signal confirmation of their engines being located in Pakistan, a CIA analyst walked into the offices of the New York Times to present satellite pictures of a fake Iranian aircraft carrier. 
It seemed rather odd considering there was really no value in the story beyond exposing our spy intelligence in the region.    However, against the backdrop of the missing MH-370, and considering the images came from the CIA via DigitalGlobe -the same satellite company doing the MH-370 search- some speculated it may have been a message to regional players that we have the ability to see more than they may think we have the ability to see.   *nudge, nudge – wink, wink*
Well today:  
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — An Iranian newspaper is reporting that the country’s military plans to target a mock-up American aircraft carrier during upcoming war games. (more…)

HatTip WeeWeed – (Via Peoples Cube) While some undoubtedly ignorant people today made much ado about the nothing engendered in the Vatican’s redundant elevation of two dead old white males into so-called “sainthood”, reasonable people are asking a more important question: “Why was Barack Obama ignored?”

“It is obviously blatant racism,” said a non-white hispanic writer for the famous and intellectually impressive New York Times. “After all,” he added with less outrage than we had expected, “Obama won a NOBEL PRIZE FOR CHRISSAKES! If THAT doesn’t qualify him for sainthood, what the hell does?” (more…)

– Post Bumped and Updated With The Video –
The first U.S. journalist to rise and ask a question during the official press conference between President Obama and Malaysian Prime Minister Najib was Chuck Todd from NBC News.
What does he choose to ask about ?
The Russia v Ukraine crisis?  EU Sanctions and growing fears of NATO nations?  G7 and the fears of another world war?  The collapse of a Japanese trade deal from the previous day ?   The coordination of U.S. search efforts for Missing Malaysian airlines MH-370?   Pan-Asian relations and nuclear agreements?
Pfffffftt….   silly rabbit.

Why… LA Clippers Owner Donald Sterling, and the existence of racism in the USA of course.

Race-baiters gotta’ race-bait.    And… of course President Obama has a well briefed response reflecting he has been *THOROUGHLY* apprised of the situation.

For some reason this continuing saga of socialist oppression seems to have escaped the mainstream media…. Sean Penn unavailable for comment (?) 

(From PanAm Post Via WeaselZippers) Peaceful protests in Venezuela will from now on require express authorization from the mayor or the governor of the jurisdiction where they are carried out. The Supreme Court (TSJ) made this decision yesterday, declaring that the right to protest “is not an absolute right.”
https://twitter.com/DefendWallSt/statuses/460131943276085248
Police forces will now be legally allowed to disperse people who shut down a street to voice their complaints. Also, the attorney General will be allowed to prosecute unauthorized protestors for disobedience.
The TSJ considered it is imperative to “guarantee the right to free movement,” which would justify dispersing any unauthorized congregation. According to the ruling, written by Judge Arcadio Delgado, local police forces have “an obligation to cooperate with the rest of the security forces in maintaining public order during the illegal exercise of the right to protest.” (more…)

(FrontPageMag)  A few years ago, Newsweek’s glossy cover asked “Is Your Baby Racist?” The baby looking back at supermarket shoppers, airline passengers waiting for their flight and patients in the dental office had blue eyes.
The labeling of racists as white has itself become a racial stereotype. And it’s not an accidental stereotype.
Behind the left’s support for affirmative action is the belief that white racism is the only kind of racism that exists. Black racism they insist is really called “reverse racism” and is a myth made up by white people.
It’s not that the left believes that affirmative action isn’t racist. It’s that it believes that there is no such thing as racism against white people.
Like the Knockout Game or white students who qualify on merit but can’t get into college because of racial diversity quotas; it’s an invalid category. A myth.
And if it’s a myth, then there’s nothing wrong with a little racial violence or a few racial preferences. (more…)

HatTip Sharon and Stella – We rose three weeks ago in support of Cliven Bundy; and despite the turmoil and toxicity created recently by a manipulative media we will remain so.
Why?  Simple.  Because we understand the larger context of what is actually taking place.  This is not about Cliven Bundy or racism any more than the land grab was about turtles or grazing fees.  The unification of a broad electorate, behind a commonality – is a risk.  It has always been thus.
Start by understanding this video:

In addition to the Frankfurt Fabian networks, and the conglomerates of institutionalized leftists, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Bill O’Reilly have also arrived to claim their pound of Bundy flesh, fall prey to the premise of the institutional left and insure the division.
