First it is important to watch this video (hat tip FDR in Hell):
Then read this report from yesterday (more…)
Finally something positive happens for George Zimmerman. The progressive nut-job, Jerry Counelis, who supported a Bernie Sanders/Dennis Kucinich Presidential ticket for 2012, has filed a claim of a civil rights violation – and protests that George Zimmerman attorney Mark O’Mara has “defamed” him.
Good News….. Good News…..
How is this a positive for George Zimmerman you ask?
Well, if the media ACTUALLY does some research into who is representing Jerry Counelis, Civil Rights President – J Willie David, in this lawsuit, the public might actually grasp how ridiculous the entire construct of the players behind the Scheme are.
Just in case, we’ll show you here.
First the story. Jerry Counelis lied in his jury interview, he was busted by his own facebook page which angrily made threats against George Zimmerman and his family supporters. Jerry was dismissed from jury consideration.
The next day Jerry returns to the courthouse trying to gain access to the jury Holding room. He was stopped by the Sheriff Dept officers in the courthouse, escorted out and given a trespass notice to not return until trial conclusion.
Zimmerman attorney, Mark O’Mara said he was glad the guy did not succeed in getting to the jury holding room, potentially contaminating the jury, and forcing the process to start all over again. O’Mara called his false statements the behavior of a stealth jurist.
Today the Orlando Sentinel reports: The Florida Civil Rights Association announced Tuesday that it is representing a dismissed juror who was barred from the Seminole County Courthouse until after the George Zimmerman trial concludes. (more…)
Senators: John McCain (AZ), Jeff Flake (AZ), Lindsey Graham (SC) and Marco Rubio (FL) voted against a border fence and structure of a biometric visa system prior to obtaining legal status.
Let that sink in…..
…. All four “supposed conservative” members voted against the fence and visa amendments. This, despite the vast majority of Americans wanting a secure border, and improved immigration visa security, before continuing with amnesty.
WASHINGTON DC – The Senate Tuesday defeated two amendments aimed at strengthening border security in the Gang of Eight immigration reform bill, including a provision that would have required a double-layer fence on the U.S.-Mexico border.
The back-to-back defeat of the two provisions was a blow to critics of the immigration reform measure who say it lacks meaningful border security provisions. (more…)
In a trial, all the witnesses swear to tell the truth. Then a jury is seated for the sole purpose of attempting to determine who’s telling the truth…..
….but wait!
…….there’s a fly in the ointment!
WASHINGTON DC – With a new poll showing falling support for the Gang of Eight comprehensive immigration reform bill, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has announced an accelerated schedule in which the Senate would take a final, up-or-down vote on passing the bill by the end of next week. […]
Reid warned his fellow lawmakers that if they want to consider amendments to the Gang of Eight bill, they need to be prepared to work virtually nonstop between now and then. “This may not be one of our normal weekends,” Reid said. “We’ve got to move forward on this legislation.” (more…)

The Supreme Court threw out the Arizona law that requires people to prove they are US citizens before registering to vote.
The AP reported: The Supreme Court ruled Monday that states cannot require would-be voters to prove they are U.S. citizens before using a federal registration system designed to make signing up easier.
The justices voted 7-2 to throw out Arizona’s voter-approved requirement that prospective voters document their U.S. citizenship in order to use a registration form produced under the federal “Motor Voter” voter registration law. (more…)
Last Friday CBS News confirmed that Sharyl Attkisson’s computer was hacked by “an unauthorized, external, unknown party on multiple occasions.” Today she reveals they have identified who did it:
“I think I know. But I’m just not prepared to go into that. We’re continuing our investigations. There are multifaceted looks at what to do next… Let me just say, whoever did it, to come into a private citizen’s home, whether I’m a journalist or not, and look in my family’s computer and look into my work computer… Well, it’s outrageous.”
WASHINGTON DC – The National Security Agency has acknowledged in a new classified briefing that it does not need court authorization to listen to domestic phone calls.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler, a New York Democrat, disclosed this week that during a secret briefing to members of Congress, he was told that the contents of a phone call could be accessed “simply based on an analyst deciding that.”
If the NSA wants “to listen to the phone,” an analyst’s decision is sufficient, without any other legal authorization required, Nadler said he learned. “I was rather startled,” said Nadler, an attorney and congressman who serves on the House Judiciary committee. (more…)
In response to the NSA leaks, and the bazillions of questions from concerned Americans about their privacy being snooped on by the government, the administration coordinated a Senate Classified Briefing to explain the details of the program. The intent was to inform the elected Senators so they could answer questions from their state citizenry.
Less than half of them attended.
WASHINGTON DC – Less than half (47) of US Senators attended a classified briefing on Thursday afternoon, instead choosing to head home for the weekend. The briefing was with “with James Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence, Keith Alexander, the head of the National Security Agency (NSA), and other officials.”
Wow. (more…)
