….And they need to hide it, big time.

It is not accidental that Loretta Lynch was featured on all five major broadcasts for the Sunday news cycle (Topic Orlando Terrorism).   You might well remember the last time a key administration official named Susan Rice met with an almost identical Sunday schedule (Topic Benghazi Terrorism).

General Lynch’s Sunday talk visibility is yet another example of the Obama administration’s risk management reference manual, The Obfuscation Playbook.
The difference between Rice’s 2012 appearance and Lynch’s 2016 version is: this time we know the play.  We also know exactly what the administration risk is, even IF the media won’t discuss it, and we’ll explain below.
There is a transparent rift within the FBI community;  an internal fight within our own systems of legal / investigative governance and the White House.   The numerous leaks from within the FBI investigation of Orlando are highlighting the internal war.  It takes a cabinet member to try and create the strongest position for the White House.

Good Grief, put this in the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot file. The Orlando terrorist wasn’t just exhibiting warning flags, he was blasting off big flashy warning flares.

As an outcome of a very concerned resident meeting at PGA Village in Port St. Lucie, the location where Omar Mateen worked as a security guard, the county sheriff shared a rather disturbing revelation.
According to the county Sheriff, Ken Mascara, Mateen was reported to his security firm G4S and the FBI for threatening a local deputy and stating he could have al-Qaeda kill the police officer’s family. He then went on to praise Nidal Hasan the Fort Hood shooter.
(Via TC Palm) […]  Frustrated residents at a resident meeting Wednesday night, which was attended by at least 200 people, bombarded Drew Levine, G4S president of secure solutions in North America, with their concerns — among them, how Mateen flew under the private security firm’s radar.
Mateen in 2007, as part of the G4S hiring screening process, underwent a standard psychological exam — named the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory — and a background check, its representatives said. The state also screened Mateen every two years in order for him to keep his private security license. Beyond that, G4S does not conduct yearly background checks of its employees; rather, 15 percent of all employees are randomly checked each year, representatives said.

There are some media reports, vague reports, that Noor Salman the terrorist’s wife, has mysteriously slipped away into “hiding”. Let’s hope those reports are incorrect and the FBI is tailing/tracking her. However, a direct question by the Daily Mail to the brother-in-law of terrorist Mateen makes the circle of knowledge seem wider than media previously would admit.
From the outset the social patterns -specific behavioral patterns- of Omar Mateen (shooter), Noor Salman (wife), Mariam or Mary (sister), and Seddique Mateen (dad), seem transparently obvious to have known in advance something was about to happen.
The similarities in networks and familial behaviors between Omar Mateen/Noor Salman and the San Bernardino terrorists Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik are very, very similar.
Now this report about Mariam Seddique’s husband, Mustafa Abasin (Omar Mateen’s brother in law), from Daily Mail: (more…)

In the aftermath of the Orlando Terrorist Attack only one candidate, Donald Trump, has expressed moral clarity on the substantive issue.  In a speech delivered earlier this week a singular sentence stands out against all others:

[…]  America must unite the whole civilized world in the fight against Islamic terrorism, just like we did against communism in the Cold War… (more)

That sentence identifies a global vacuum.  A missing element just too uncomfortable for President Obama and liberal leaders within multiple Western nations to acknowledge.  From that sentence a clear policy is born.  A missing policy; missing leadership.

I predict that in the coming weeks/months candidate Hillary Clinton and President Obama will be forced to accept and adopt the clarity within Donald Trump’s position.  They’ll simply have to.  Because if they don’t, the voters they need will abandon them in droves.
Neither Hillary Clinton, nor President Obama are willing to admit the transparently obvious: there is a threat from Islamic Terrorism, that directly endangers the core liberal values carried by their own base constituency. (more…)

According to information from the office of Senator Ron Johnson (Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs) terrorist Omar Mateen was posting messages to social media in the time between the initial attack and the time SWAT teams rushed the Pulse nightclub:

“I pledge my alliance to (ISIS leader) abu bakr al Baghdadi … may Allah accept me”.

“The real muslims will never accept the filthy ways of the west” …“You kill innocent women and children by doing us airstrikes … now taste the Islamic state vengeance.”

In an odd coincidence, Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen appears very briefly in a documentary about the BP oil spill on Florida’s Gulf Coast.
At the time Omar is working in his capacity as a security guard for G4S as an undercover documentary filmmaker Rebecca Tickell records him on hidden camera.
The recording was part of a 2010 production called “The Big Fix”, a documentary of the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil spill.   Omar Mateen appears on a hidden camera as he works night security detail near a Gulf Coast beach.
Mateen can be seen in the video at the 36:00 minute mark (video prompted just hit play):

Regarding his life at the time of this recording: – This would have been in 2010 shortly after first wife Sitora Yusufly claims Mateen was abusive.

Last night Fox News Sean Hannity interviewed candidate Donald Trump.  The primary topic discussed was the Orlando terrorist attack and the threat from Islamic Jihadists.  Additional topics included media dishonesty and the race against Hillary Clinton:

Finally.  It’s taken three days, we’ve been pounding the connections, and now media reports the FBI is in San Francisco to interview Ekbal Zahi.  Zahi is the mother of Noor Sahi Salman, terrorist Omar Mateen’s wife.
There are very similar circumstances between the events, travels and behaviors of Omar Matten, his wife Noor Salman and the San Bernardino terrorists Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik.

The connections include similar travel (Saudi Arabia), social Islam / Mosque connected relationships, and sham marriages to gain U.S. entry for spouses who become ex-spouses after minimum time for residency retention.  In essence, knowledge of -and exploitation of- ridiculously uncontrolled immigration avenues.
San Francisco is the link that connects terrorist Mateen and terrorist Farook.  See if any of this NBC report on Omar/Noor, from San Francisco, rings a bell to the prior reporting of Syed/Tashfeen for you (bookmark for later reference):
(Via Bay News NBC)  […]  Noor Zahi Salman, 30, grew up in Rodeo, California, about 45 minutes away from San Francisco, is cooperating with the FBI but could still face criminal charges.

On Tuesday afternoon, three FBI agents visited the house she grew up in between 3 and 4 p.m., and where her mother still lives with her 14-year-old sister. Neighbors told NBC Bay Area they heard two women and a man say “FBI” when they knocked on the house next door. Video footage obtained by NBC Bay Area shows the agents leaving in their car.

CNN calls this: “The commander in chief’s fury, which seethed out of him in a stunning soliloquy on live television, amounted to a moment of historic significance: a president castigating one of the two people who could succeed him as beyond the constitutional and political norms of the nation itself.”
However, what’s more evident is how Donald Trump’s criticism of the weak and ineffective security policies of President Obama is directly on target.  The Orlando massacre is a visible outcome of the current president’s ineffective anti-terrorism policies.
Obama’s policies are in the sunlight; he is scared, diminished and lashing out:

The common sense America-First candidacy of Donald Trump is revealing the true dangers to ordinary Americans.  (more…)

For two days our research has maintained, just like the San Bernardino attacks (which hold multiple similarities), the key to the Pulse nightclub shootings will be found with Noor Zahi Salman, Omar Mateen’s wife.
♦ Noor Zahi Salman (30), [DOB 5-26-86, Mother maiden name Atayem] Omar’s second (and current) wife, was born in San Francisco, CA.
She too was previously married and divorced in 2009 in Contra Costa county California east of San Francisco. –Court Records Link–
Prior to marrying Omar Mateen, Noor Salman was married to Ahmed Abu-Rahma in California. (marriage dissolution FLMSD09-03480 07/29/2009).  Noor later married Omar in Florida in 2013.  The connection between Noor and Omar appears to be Noor’s father Abdallah Salman (61)  
Now media reports are revealing, through LEO sources, Noor knew about the terrorist attack in advance:
(Via NBC) The Orlando gunman’s wife has told federal agents she tried to talk her husband out of carrying out the attack, NBC News has learned. (more…)
