On the good news side of things, younger people are waking up to the truth of who actually wants to take away their freedoms. The party of Hope and Change is now more openly identified as the party of Hoax and Chains.

A new Democrat proposal would empower the feds to scour the Internet, TV and more for so-called hate speech.

Democratic Sen. Ed Markey is pushing a bill to have a federal agency monitor anything that it suspects may encourage hate crimes. He wants the agency to work in connection with the Department of Justice and U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, then file a report to Congress on what’s hateful and could lead to hate crimes.

So, who gets to decide what’s hateful and what will they then do about it?

“I think it sends a message not only throughout the NBA, but also to the players, the folks who come to watch the games, and to the private sector in general about what’s acceptable behavior in this country and what is not acceptable,” senior Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett told Fusion. “We commend Adam Silver for his bold move.” (link with video)

The first U.S. journalist to rise and ask a question during the official press conference between President Obama and Malaysian Prime Minister Najib was Chuck Todd from NBC News.
What does he choose to ask about ?
The Russia v Ukraine crisis?  EU Sanctions and growing fears of NATO nations?  G7 and the fears of another world war?  The collapse of a Japanese trade deal from the previous day ?   The coordination of U.S. search efforts for Missing Malaysian airlines MH-370?   Pan-Asian relations and nuclear agreements?
Pfffffftt….   silly rabbit.

Why… LA Clippers Owner Donald Sterling, and the existence of racism in the USA of course.

Race-baiters gotta’ race-bait.    And… of course President Obama has a well briefed response reflecting he has been *THOROUGHLY* apprised of the situation.

Obama can’t get a trade deal with Japan.   Obama angers the Chinese relations over Senkaku Islands.   But hey, there’s always  “THE SELFIE”…

WASHINGTON – President Obama had plenty of heartfelt words as he spoke at the Oso firehouse after touring the mudslide debris field. But his remarks are being overshadowed because he mispronounced Oso several times.
He got it right the first time he referenced the town devastated by last month’s slide as he recognized family members of the victims, first responders and officials, saying he came to let the community know the entire country is thinking of them.
But moments later came his big gaffe.
“Because while very few Americans have ever heard of Osso [sic] before the disaster struck, we’ve all been inspired by the incredible way that the community has come together.” (more…)

The White House will be calling NBC today.
Apparently the PC way of saying Obama is a wimp is to state that President Obama “has a manhood problem”:

Last December during a town hall meeting hosted by Al Sharpton and the National Action Network in Chicago to address gun violence something unexpected happened.
The audience almost exploded into a revolt against: “Chicago Machine” politics, Mayor Rahm Emanuel and a black alderman in City Hall.   The surprise came with a panel and audience members calling to actually vote out their elected officials.
One 82-year-old preacher even called for “Tea Party” style meetings in some of Chicago’s south side communities such as Altgen Gardens and Trumbull Park. (via Breitbart)

Some folks are looking at this as the feds investigating Wendy Davis because she is a corruptocrat. Not me.

I look at this as the FBI pulling in the Davis file to protect her history “within the investigation” from FOIA requests. In essence the FBI probe provides a reason for the Travis County DA’s office to deny releasing a previously “closed” investigation file.

Folks need to adjust the focus on the binoculars.  It’s the new normal – ie. how the highly charged political Eric Holder DOJ roll.

AUSTIN — Documents related to Sen. Wendy Davis’ work as a lawyer for the North Texas Tollway Authority are part of an FBI inquiry of the agency, Travis County officials say.
It’s not clear whether Davis’ work for the tollway authority is a focus of the FBI or only part of the material collected in connection with its look into tollway agency operations.
The Travis County district attorney’s office said last month that details from its review of a 2012 complaint that a rival filed about Davis’ legal and political activities were “the subject of an open investigation” by the FBI. The district attorney’s office closed its review last year without taking any action. (more…)
