A counter-event being held today at VSU is anticipated to draw 4,000+ patriots in support of the Stars and Stripes. Todays event follows the publicity of a militant black supremacy group who were walking on, and burning, the USA flag for several days on campus last week.

The leader of the student group who was originally protesting, Eric Sheppard Jr., remains wanted by police for violent threats and firearms violations.  Weapons were found in his backpack on the school campus.  Sheppard fled the campus before police could arrest him. It is rumored Eric Sheppard is in hiding amid several organizations sympathetic to his ‘Islamic radicalization’ cause.
The sunlight upon the campus recruitment for Islamic Radicalization has brought an uncomfortable discussion into the backstory surrounding the events. According to local speculation the Nation of Islam and New Black Panther Party sympathizers are assisting Sheppard in avoiding law enforcement.
Had it not been for an Air Force veteran, Michelle Manhart, bringing national attention to the group – the activity taking place on the VSU campus would never have been scrutinized. (more…)

Because the Freddie Gray story advances a specific narrative right in the sweet spot for check-box progressives who deliver liberal punditry on the network and try to convince America that it’s the majority view.

If a commercial airliner disappeared over Baltimore CNN would climax.

And the local liberal media in/around Baltimore Maryland are just giddy with praise.

Baltimore Sun: “When it comes to television, CNN has been in a league by itself in covering the Freddie Gray story“…

The professionally aggrieved have once again found a friend in CNN.

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…)

April 18th 2015 – This first picture is what was going on at Valdosta “State” University ( VSU) for 3 days:

The campus refused to do anything about it […] So we decided to get the flag and give it the respect it deserved.  We just wanted to remove it and dispose of it properly. (more…)

It’s the progressives #1 Obamacare claim – if you want to repeal it, you are throwing 16 million people off healthcare plans. So when the CBS team tries the question, Ted Cruz gives them an accurate retort. Well done.

…”Well, you know, those numbers don’t tell the whole picture. For one thing, the bulk of those numbers are coming from expanded Medicaid. And Medicaid is a program where a lot of the people on Medicaid are not getting health care. Medicaid is a system that is already overburdened and more and more people are just getting waiting lists and not actually getting health care. Beyond that — remember, six million people had their health insurance canceled because of Obamacare. You’re not doing someone a favor if you cancel the health insurance they like and then force them to buy new health insurance at higher premiums that covers less”….

Not exactly sure why this was announced and presented today other than to put to rest the insufferable lies within the U-VA rape case which drew massive attention after the Rolling Stone article which choose not to fact check the story prior to selling it.

Charlottesville Police Chief Longo is arguably one of the most precariously proficient PC edge-walkers within law enforcement. He’s been the face of several high profile Charlottesville investigations including the Hannah Graham murder. Most recently Longo has been walking the PC tightrope in the U-VA student Martese Johnson nonsense.

However, today he had the dubious task of telling the world the U-VA rape case was a total hoax, a fraud, an intentionally constructed series of lies by a pathologically unstable female nutter.

Of course Longo couldn’t exactly say it that way (though at times it appeared to leak out) after all, we are talking about Northern Virginia – and the grand proximity to the liberal epicenter that is Washington DC and Marylandistan.

Somehow Longo -once again- successfully found a way to tap dance through the minefield of delicate liberal sensibilities and avoid the media pitfalls of calling a liberal liar a, well, liar. The non-victim -victim- was perhaps just misspeaking, probably – or something. (more…)

An interesting article within The Hill begins to outline how much effort President Obama and the ideological cohorts within the administration went to try and get Benjamin Netanyahu defeated.

According to a source for the information within the article, at the end of the Israeli election: “I think the president, Tuesday night, felt like he lost“.

And when you look at how extensive Obama and Kerry’s efforts were including:

…”The State Department people in the end of January, early February, expedited visas for [Israeli] Arab leaders to come to the United States to learn how to vote…

…and you understand how emotionally invested Obama’s team was in that outcome, you can begin to understand the administration’s response in the face of their defeat.

(Via The Hill) President Obama’s role during the Israeli elections was larger than reported, according to a pollster for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party.

“What was not well reported in the American media is that President Obama and his allies were playing in the election to defeat Prime Minister Netanyahu,” John McLaughlin, a Republican strategist, said in an interview on John Catsimatidis’s “The Cats Roundtable” radio show broadcast Sunday on AM 970 in New York.

“There was money moving that included taxpayer U.S. dollars, through non-profit organizations. And there were various liberal groups in the United States that were raising millions to fund a campaign called V15 against Prime Minister Netanyahu,” McLaughlin said. (more…)

Oh, they’ll try to find some PC touchy-feely way to save face, but the reality it their business model was moments away from financial implosion. This comes as a surprise decision to, well, no-one. The reversal is effective “immediately”.

(AP) – According to a recently released internal memo, Starbucks baristas will no longer write “Race Together” on customers’ cups starting Sunday.

Starbucks spokesman Jim Olson says the campaign to create discussion on diversity and racial inequality will continue without the handwritten messages, which are phasing out as originally planned.

The memo from CEO Howard Schultz says the cups were always “just the catalyst” for a broader conversation and the company will still hold forum discussions, co-produce special sections in USA TODAY and put more stores in minority communities as part of the Race Together initiative. (more…)

A video showcasing the exploits and maneuvers of the farm league professional grievance class. I strongly urge you to watch the whole 11 minute video and then follow the links to the backstory.

This can be especially useful for those only recently connecting the dots, because this video aids in a larger understanding through the effective use of Madison Wisconsin as an example.

Link To Back-Story

You know the Starbucks brand image consultants are either: rushing, or full-on moonbat stupid – when they hashtag name their cause “#Racetogether”.

This is, after all, a Social Justice Obama-era of social “ism’s” replete with little check boxes for you to mark your “privilege”, and views on “sexism” – and so forth.

Gender social issues have been advanced (by 3% of the population) to a status of priority just below the top tier, just below race, when the moonbats howl.  Remember also, from the brain of the campus rape culture narrative flag bearers – this is a big effen’ deal. So allow me to point out the Moonbattery of the Starbucks committee.

#Racetogether = Race-To-Get-Her. Starbucks is promoting the rape culture.

I digress. Here’s their handout:
