Federal officials are now admitting Orlando Terrorist Attacker Omar Mateen was a known entity to them and was previously interviewed in connection to ISIS suicide bomber Moner Abu Salha.
In a press conference, an FBI spokesman says the agency first interviewed Omar Mateen in 2013 after he made “inflammatory remarks” to a colleague. The investigation was closed.
The FBI interviewed Mateen again in 2014 about a potential connection with suicide bomber Moner Abu Salha.   The FBI investigation found no “substantial relationship” between Mateen and Salah. (link)
♦ Omar Mateen worked for a security firm under contract to the Department of Homeland Security called G4S.  Mateen was licensed as a security guard and also holds a firearms license. G4S, a global security firm with an office in Jupiter. The same company is used by DHS to move illegal aliens around the country.

It just got a little harder for President Obama to deny the terrorist attack motive.
Earlier Senator Marco Rubio alluded to it.  Just now Florida Senator Bill Nelson confirmed that Senate Intelligence Staff are confident the Pulse Nightclub Attack was an “ISIS inspired attack“. –link–
Senator Nelson quotes Dianne Feinstein who is a member of the exclusive “Intelligence Gang of Eight” oversight committee.   In addition Representative Adam Schiff (House Intelligence Committee) states Omar Mateen “pledged allegiance to ISIS“.

Four Days Ago, June 8th, media reports surfaced that ISIS had warned FBI and DHS that Florida’s East Coast was going to be the location of attacks. (see here)  ISIS published a list of over 600 names within Florida, tightly focused on Palm Beach County (See Here).

Oddly, the Florida State and Federal DOJ/FBI officials in Orlando did not bring a Christian, Jewish or Mormon faith leader to the press conference for an update on the terrorist attack. Nor did they explain why they only requested attendance by a Florida Imam.  Hmmmm….
(Via Gateway Pundit) Orlando officials invited Imam Muhammad Musri, the president and senior imam of the Islamic Society of Central Florida, to speak to reporters. This was the first press conference held by Orlando officials after the massacre. No Christian or Jewish leaders were invited to speak to reporters.
Of course the pathetic Imam says “do not sensationalize” and “more gun controls are needed”:

With two weeks remaining before official voting takes place in the United Kingdom (UK) referendum to exit the European Union (EU), the most current polling shows growing support amid the “Leave” movement:

Almost every argument for and against the Brexit vote now centers around self-determination in general, and immigration determination specifically.  All EU nation states operate as a broad open borders region with no statutory impediments to any EU citizen emigrating throughout the region.
The recent influx of economic refugees from the Mid-East (Syria mostly), and North Africa, via Turkey and Greece routes, has opened up a growing problem of uncontrollable inbound migration.  Consequently the economic impacts of higher demand on welfare programs, combined with the downward pressure on wage rates, has many UK citizens questioning their previous support.  Hence, the “leave” coalition is finding growing support.

With voting on the referendum only 23 days away the liberally minded UK Telegraph is reporting on a poll that shows 51% of Britain favoring they remain in the European Union, and 46% saying, no – get out.
It should be noted that most of the media reporting on the Brexit referendum are British euro-globalists who have a notorious history of getting political polls wrong because the results often run counter to their preferred leftist ideologies:

(Via UK Telegraph) Public concern over immigration has delivered a “significant” boost to the Leave campaign amid growing concern about Britain’s ability to control its borders, a new poll suggests. (more…)

CNN broadcast a one hour special yesterday called “Why they hate us” discussing why adherents to the most authentic interpretations of Islam hate the United States.
Overall, the broadcasted presentation by Fareed Zakaria was good; actually, very good.  Perhaps one of the best one hour presentations in quite a while.  The content was engaging, the historical references were well presented and well outlined…. until a fatal flaw. The common, disconcerting and uncomfortable fatal flaw.

In what can only be viewed as an effort to downplay the scope of the threat, Fareed Zakaria claims the existence of only 100,000 jihad-minded Islamic followers world-wide.  Fifteen minutes later he presents the 2014 terror victim outcome of 30,000 dead in a single year from Muslim Terrorist Attacks; most victims also Muslim – as if that matters.
Zakaria would have the viewing audience believe that 100k world-wide adherent followers, could inflict 30,00 fatalities.  Common sense, not prone to co-dependency, would refute such an obtuse argument. (more…)

According to the MSM the “motive” remains a mystery…
NORMAN, Okla. — An Oklahoma judge on Friday put off deciding whether to accept a man’s request to plead guilty to first-degree murder in the beheading of a co-worker, as a death sentence would still be possible.

Alton Nolen reiterated his desire to plead guilty and die by lethal injection after Cleveland County District Judge Lori Walkley asked a series of questions to assess whether he understood the charges stemming from the September 2014 attack at the Vaughn Foods plant in the Oklahoma City suburb of Moore.

Not sure if any of this is connected, but it certainly is quite a coincidence. We note three stories on three consecutive days:
♦ Sunday, May 8th – “Sickening new pictures have emerged of a new form of ISIS execution – stabbing prisoners directly in the heart to kill them for their ‘crimes against the caliphate'”. (link)

♦ Monday, May 9th – GRAFING, Germany — A German man yelled “infidel, you must die” and “Allahu akbar” as he stabbed one person to death and wounded three others at a Bavarian train station Tuesday, but authorities said they’ve found no links to any Islamic extremist network. (link)
♦ Tuesday, May 10th – (last night) BOSTON – TAUNTON (CBS) – An off-duty officer shot and killed a man who allegedly stabbed two people to death during a rampage at two locations in Taunton Tuesday night.

Police responded to the Silver City Galleria shopping mall just before 7:00 p.m. after the suspect, identified as 28-year-old Arthur DaRosa, crashed a black Honda Accord into the entrance of a Macy’s store. (more…)

“America First” is the headline given to today’s Donald Trump foreign policy speech as delivered.  However, many pundits are automatically assigning that reference position to the prior non-interventionist approach held prior to WWII.  This projection is factually false.
“America First” is simply that, a view, a perspective, a filtering prism of consideration for the U.S. role in the world by first thinking strategically about our own national interests.

There’s big business, big money, and big economic globalist influence swirling around all matters of modern U.S. foreign policy.
Few people, and almost no-one in the world of corporate media punditry, really take the conversation high enough to grasp the ultimate ends of any military aspect to foreign policy.  Candidate Donald Trump is the first leader in our lifetime to grasp how economic interests have merged with, and infiltrated the engagement policies of, the U.S. military.
Secondly, the same corporate media who are entwined in the economics of globalization, have been selling a false narrative about Secretary Hillary Clinton.  According to the media Secretary Clinton’s strength is ‘foreign policy’; this is pure professional gaslighting.
Hillary Clinton is more vulnerable on her failed tenure as America’s top diplomat than any other aspect of her presidential bid. (more…)
