Trey Gowdy, Chairman of The House Select Committee on Benghazi, has requested former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appear before the panel next month.
In a letter to Clinton attorney David Kendall (below) Gowdy asks that Hillary testify before the committee “the week of May 18” to discuss email issues; and again before June 18 to talk about the deadly Benghazi attack (9/11/2012)

Good summary of media perspective on Clinton scandals from Breitbart….

(Via Breitbart) It’s time to splash some cold water in your faces and take a deep breath, dear Media. You have some tough days ahead of you. A mountain of scandal is crashing down upon Hillary Clinton, and it’s mostly good old-fashioned pay-for-play graft.
There’s nothing particularly complicated about it. Your job is to report it all to the American people, deflect the hurricane of spin blasting at you from Clinton henchpersons, and build one of those Narratives you love so much.
It will be tough, because your names have been tucked into the Rolodexes of those Clinton flacks for decades. You’re part of their social circle, where Bill is still a charming presence. Clinton operatives, and family members, have slipped smoothly into top media jobs. Clinton is the only serious candidate for 2016 from your beloved Democrat Party; every time mainstream-media editorial boards start thinking Clinton’s baggage is too heavy for them to carry, they look at the rest of the Democrat bench, swallow hard, and pick those bags right back up. But there is a Narrative here, and it’s too clear to obfuscate. (more…)

The New York Times begins digging into some of the quid-pro-quo elements outlined in the upcoming book “Clinton Cash”. A review of a Russian bid to control U.S. Uranium mine interests exposes millions of undisclosed donations to the Clinton Family Foundation which occur during critical timeframes requiring coincidental approval by Secretary Clinton.
New York Times […] Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well.

Last week we shared the story of “Baby Big Boss”, the Memphis Elementary School (pre-teen) living the thug lifestyle.  The images are stunning and alarming.  Seeing kids as young as eight years old smoking pot and proudly holding up guns is alarming to 99% of America that just can’t relate.
But it gets worse.  Here’s the same city, same mentality, except now High School instead of Elementary School…. It only gets worse.  Black Lives Matter ?
MEMPHIS, TN (WMC) –  A fight broke out in White Station High School on Tuesday afternoon.   Several cell phone videos that caught the chaos are spreading on social media.
In the videos you can see dozens of girls punching, kicking, and stomping one another. School resource officers even got into the fray in an attempt to break up the fights, which appeared to have also spilled into classrooms.

The first video posted on social media shows the fight happening in the cafeteria.
“First, I saw teachers and security scattering over each other,” said 11th grader John Rork. “A couple of girls all over each other. I saw scratches, hair falling out, a lot of hair pulling. This one girl jumped off a table and pushed another student in the face.” (more…)

The group of protesters angry about the death of Freddy Gray (in hospital following being taken into police custody) were captured on live CNN TV coverage shouting their desires to kill in retaliation.

The advocacy for violent confrontation comes on the same day the same day police released the names of the officers involved in the arrest of Freddie Gray. Gray died of a spinal injury Sunday, exactly one week after he was taken into custody.
Earlier in the day, the Baltimore Police Department released the names of six police officers suspended with pay. They are: •  Lt. Brian Rice, 41, who joined the department in 1997; •  Officer Caesar Goodson, 45, who joined in 1999; •  Sgt. Alicia White, 30, who joined in 2010; •  Officer William Porter, 25, who joined in 2012; •  Officer Garrett Miller, 26, who joined in 2012; and •  Officer Edward Nero, 29, who joined in 2012.

“People keep saying, ‘We need to have a conversation about race.  This is the conversation”.
“I want to see a cop shoot a white unarmed teenager in the back, and I want to see a white man convicted for raping a black woman. Then when you ask me, ‘Is it over?’, I will say yes.”
– Toni Morrison (awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Obama in 2012)

Today in Mississippi –  A man is dead after an early morning altercation with deputies, according to Lauderdale County Sheriff Billy Sollie.
Steven G. Davenport, 43, a white male, was pronounced dead at a local hospital this morning, Sollie said.
Deputies received a call of a disturbance around 3 a.m. between two individuals at a residence. When deputies arrived on scene, they attempted to resolve the situation, the sheriff said. (more…)

Both President Obama and Secretary Hillary Clinton praised Mohammed Morsi when he was ruling Egypt as the chosen representative of The Muslim Brotherhood.   Morsi immediately disbanded the court system and instituted a Sharia compliant constitution while slaughtering hundreds of Egyptians.  Obama and Clinton praised him, the majority of Egyptian people hated him.


EGYPT – An Egyptian criminal court on Tuesday sentenced ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi to 20 years in prison on charges linked to the killing of protesters in 2012, the first verdict to be issued against the country’s first freely elected leader.
The conviction, which can be appealed, and muted Islamist reaction following it underscore the dramatic downfall of Morsi and Egypt’s once-powerful Muslim Brotherhood group. However, Morsi escaped receiving a death sentence in the case, which Islamists derided as a “farce.” (more…)

There has been some professional parseltongue from the Rubio camp in response to their candidate being caught on camera pledging to retain Obama’s executive amnesty (DACA) if he were President.  They’ve even argued a “lost in translation” approach, and should be embarrassed.
However, this should clear it up for those who are following Rubio’s proposals, and calling him the “pragmatic” candidate.

(Via Breitbart) The chief spokesman for the presidential campaign of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) said in an on-record interview with Breitbart News that the senator, if elected president, would not require a secured border before he gives legislative and permanent amnesty to recipients of President Barack Obama’s first executive amnesty, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

“No,” Alex Conant said when asked if the border would need to be secured before a President Rubio’s legislative amnesty for recipients of Obama’s 2012 DACA would replace that executive amnesty.

Rubio intends to, if elected to the White House—as he laid out in a Spanish-language interview with Univision’s Jorge Ramos this weekend and was subsequently confirmed by Conant—eventually undo DACA. But he would not do so until there is a legislative replacement that provides the legal status—or amnesty—to DACA recipients on a permanent basis.  (read more)

For what it’s worth no candidate is proposing a solution to the problem, they each are trying to find a way to navigate through the minefield of being called “heartless” etc. (more…)

Professional parseltongue.   This Josh Earnest response should not be considered in a vacuum per se’.  Instead it should be weighted against the former White House response to claims repeatedly made by Harry Reid about Mitt Romney not paying taxes.

No longer willing to play second fiddle to Chicago, New York has re-entered the race to sit atop the infamous list of most dangerous cities.

NEW YORK, New York — Twenty people have been shot and one victim has died after shootings in NYC since Friday.

While it is still too early to tell how successful Mayor De Blasio will be in his quest to retake the mantle from Chicago’s Mayor Rahm Emanuel, it appears his policies to remove law and order are unleashing the strongest villains amid his societal construct.

[…]   More than a dozen people were wounded Saturday night alone in NYC.
The rise in violence comes as Mayor de Blasio ends ‘stop and frisk’ practices, others blame warmer weather.
According to CBS New York, Saturday’s shootings wounded eight people in the Bronx, three in Brooklyn and one in Manhattan. (link)

However, “not so fast” says the windy city, due to a late day surge of violence on Sunday – Mayor Emanuel was able to nip the fast-approaching team De Blasio as the “Gun Free Zone” challenge continues:  (more…)
