You just can’t make this stuff up:

No doubt Putin is leveraging the U.S. position moving against ISIS in Syria which needs Russian assistance/acceptance.   As Russia assists U.S. political and strategic interests in Syria, now is the right time for Putin to make his selfish moves.   Putin is playing chess, and Obama is playing checkers…..

MOSCOW — Declaring that Russian troops had crossed into Ukraine, President Petro O. Poroshenko on Thursday canceled a planned visit to Turkey and convened a meeting of the national security council to focus on the “marked aggravation of the situation” in the southeast of his country.

The meeting of the national security council will focus on shaping a response, and Ukraine will also request a meeting of the United Nations Security Council. (more…)

The visible, albeit generally unspoken, goals of President Obama’s immigration policies -as executed- has always been to overwhelm the system and create a crisis which must be solved with new policy.  Classic Cloward-Piven strategy.
WASHINGTON DC – Two top federal judges Wednesday said the nation’s immigration courts are in chaos, with the backlog of cases at an historic high of 375,000 for just 227 judges, leading to a minimum three-year delay in hearings for illegal immigrants.

In Washington to take advantage of the current crisis to demand a new court system, the judges accused the Justice Department of treating their courts like Cinderella’s abusive family by starving them of money and support and blamed the insufficient Justice funding for letting illegals “linger” in the country.
“Immigration courts are the forgotten stepchild,” said Immigration Judge Dana Leigh Marks of San Francisco. She was speaking on behalf of the National Association of Immigration Judges, which she is president of. (read more)

This has to be seriously alarming internally. How will Josh Earnest spin this one ?

The leftist media have inflated the ego of the current regime…  It’s how you get a Nobel Peace Prize for doing nothing noble or prize worthy.
Vocativ was on Martha’s Vineyard over the weekend to film a piece about the African-American community on the island. While we were shooting on Beach Road, one of the busiest thoroughfares on the Vineyard, the Secret Service approached and asked us to switch off our camera for 15 minutes.
A moment later, first lady Michelle Obama power walked by our crew. She was out for some exercise with a small group—and a serious security detail. It was 9:30 in the morning.

Our producer and cameraman were surrounded by Secret Service agents and very strongly advised to stop filming. At one point, Mrs. Obama looked in their direction and said, “Don’t do that.” It’s unclear if she was telling the agents to leave us alone, or scolding us for filming on public property. (more…)

This represents Obama’s foreign policy in a nutshell. In 2012 we armed ISIS in Syria with the goal to destroy President Assad. In 2014 we are giving President Assad the intelligence information to destroy ISIS, and the weapons we gave them to kill him.

(Hat Tip WeaselZippers) You just can’t make this stuff up.  

In Libya – Egypt and the UAE are attacking President Obama and Hillary’s “rebels”.  You remember, those folks we had a responsibility to protect.   The ones we ARMED.

In Syria – We are now assisting Russia and Assad, to attack President Obama, Hillary and John McCain’s “rebels”.  Yes, yet again – the ones we ARMED !  

The Benghazi Brief

WASHINGTON DC – The U.S. has begun reconnaissance flights over Syria and is sharing intelligence about jihadist deployments with Damascus through Iraqi and Russian channels, sources told AFP on Tuesday.

“The cooperation has already begun and the United States is giving Damascus information via Baghdad and Moscow,” one source close to the issue said on condition of anonymity.

The comments came a day after Foreign Minister Walid Muallem said Syria was willing to work with the international community against the jihadist Islamic State group, and U.S. officials said they were poised to carry out surveillance flights over Syria. (more…)

(Via AJC) The racial unrest caused by tensions over the shooting of black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., could be a rallying cry for Democratic get-out-the-vote efforts, according to the voter education committee chair for the Democratic Southern caucus.

“There is a story beneath the story in Ferguson,” chairwoman Janet May said at the Southern Caucus meeting during the Democratic National Convention in Atlanta on Friday.
May ran through the stats of the 21,000-person Missouri town: 13,000 black citizens, about 7,000 white. Five city council members– one of whom was black. Fifty-three policemen – 50 of whom were white. A white mayor. (more…)

Given all of our research into these entities, and our recent outline of fraud – you might find this interesting:

(Via Sharyl Attkisson) The federal government continues to maintain a great deal of secrecy around the influx of what it calls “unaccompanied alien children” or UAC. At the same time, U.S. taxpayers are being asked to fund programs to process and care for them.
Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) recently wrote a letter to the Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell stating:

Grassley also raised questions about a charity called Southwest Key Programs that “received $368 million in federal government grants over the past six years and more than $122 million alone from the Health and Human Services’ Office of Refugee Resettlement in 2014. According to the non-profit’s 2012 Form 990, it receives 98.76 percent of its support from taxpayer dollars.”
To date, Grassley says his questions to HHS have gone unanswered. Among other queries, he asked for information about who the unaccompanied minors are being released to, the health issues facing the unaccompanied minors, and the decision to move millions of dollars away from service for legal refugees.

It’s frustrating to see so many pundits spinning wildly while trying to explain seemingly contradictory opinions between President Obama and his team of advisors.
Specifically, the term: “the advisors are out front of the president” – when describing international, or foreign policy, positions of the U.S. administration.
 
President Obama is consistent, if not predictable, when it comes to his overarching approach to foreign policy; there’s no inconsistency.
President Obama is a “Domestic President”; the entire purpose of his campaign was to lead fundamental change *internally* within the U.S.
The international developments are “over there” or distractions to his entire presidency – which is solely based on changing domestic policies and therefore the construct of America as a constitutional republic.
It does not matter to President Obama when his foreign policy advisors are at a divergent position or opinion to his current place or mindset.   The international ramifications of his engagements are purely viewed through the prism of whether or not the advised position provides him greater or lesser currency within the U.S. to carryout the fundamental change.
