This story explains why the President Obama administration consider the back-story of Trayvon Martin’s criminal engagements to be a risk.

WASHINGTON DC – The head of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division says the “next generation” of civil rights challenges includes addressing racial disparities in school discipline; defending the rights of LGBT Americans; combating discrimination in housing and in lending; protecting women from sexual assault and harassment; ensuring the fair treatment of youth in the juvenile justice system; and defending the right to vote in the 21st Century.
“In recent months, the Civil Rights Division has reached landmark consent decrees involving each of these issues,” Jocelyn Samuels, the acting assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division, told a civil rights symposium in Indianapolis on Tuesday. (more…)

Typical progressive mindset.  Next year Danny Glover stars in a remake of “Plan-9 from Outer Space”, a shoo-in…. 

HOLLYWOOD – If you were watching the Oscars on Sunday night, you no doubt saw Steve McQueen’s film 12 Years A Slavetake the Best Picture prize. But two Academy members revealed to the L.A. Times that they didn’t even see it, claiming that it would be an uncomfortable film for them to watch.
Instead, they voted for it because of the relevance and importance the film, which is a real-life, harrowing account of Solomon Northup’s years as a free man captured and sold into slavery in the South.
It’s ironic, considering that the job of an Academy voter is, you know, to actually watch these films before making a decision on what’s the best of the best. But it’s not entirely shocking. (more…)

Yet again, the PC media censor the racial aspect to the attacks.  

•In the first attack a 23 year old white male was walking home at night (video of attack here);  He was attacked by a young black male.   •In the second attack a 36 year old white female was walking at 12:30pm in broad daylight when she was attacked by four black teen males.
The news video of the second attack, on the female, which includes the CCTV footage is disturbing.   The attack is not disturbing per se, the responses from the neighbors are disturbing.  Summed up they announce “meh – whatever”.
NEW YORK – Police are looking for a suspect who walked up to a 23-year-old man on a Lower East Side street and punched him in the face early Thursday, knocking him unconscious and breaking his jaw.
The victim says he’s “frightened and frustrated” after the random attack, and is hoping the suspect is found before anyone is hurt again.

Authorities say the suspect sneaked up behind the victim, Kyle Rogers, near the Bowery Mission and hit him with a closed fist before running off. Rogers passed out and woke up in the ambulance with a broken jaw. Police released the surveillance video Thursday and are asking for the public’s help in tracking down the suspect, described as a black man in his 20s. (more…)

This perpetual meme of naming all things racist is wearing beyond thin… The mall policy has been in place since 2004.   After the Newsbuster article we’ll show why.
(Via NewsBusters)  Sunny Hostin blasted an Indiana mall’s ban of people wearing raised hoodies on Thursday’s New Day: “This is…akin, in my view…to ‘stop and frisk’ – to the pretext of ‘stop and frisk’ – and I think many courts have found that this type of behavior is unacceptable, and downright unconstitutional.”

The CNN legal analyst also contended that “‘hoodie’ is code for ‘thug’ in many places,” and later claimed that “to identify just hoodies in my view…it’s very, very clear what we’re talking about here. We’re talking about racial profiling. It’s code for racial profiling.
Anchor Chris Cuomo took on the role of Hostin’s sparring partner during the segment. Cuomo first noted, in defense of the commercial complex, that “the mall says, we’ve had it in place since 2004, so don’t hit me with the Trayvon Martin stick…[and] had it in place because the local police like it, and they like it because they feel it makes it easier to fight crime because it allows people to not conceal themselves. Wear your hoodie – just don’t have it concealing your face, so I can identify you in case anything happens.” (more…)

John Morgan – Attorney, principle partner in Morgan and Morgan;  the law firm who hired former governor Charlie Crist and the legal firm of Pigford II payout coordinator Greg Francis.  Close friend of Mark O’Mara and Mark Najame.   Morgan is the Democrat bundler/fundraiser who has hosted several Barack Obama campaign events.

(Orlando Sentinel – Jeff Weiner) The behind-the-scenes turbulence of U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson‘s family life continued to spill into public view Wednesday as his attorneys worked to combat his wife’s recently revealed domestic-violence allegations.

The congressman’s lawyers revealed video of the domestic incident that played out at the Grayson home Saturday, which they said proved that Lolita Grayson committed an attack, not her husband.

“He was hoping that this matter would stay in the courts and outside of the press, but since horrendous accusations have been made against him … he believes that the truth must come out,” Grayson’s attorney Mark NeJame told reporters during a news conference in downtown Orlando.

Example #856,477 of the True Face of Bigots; the face of Democrats. 

Imagine if a white politico stated a black candidate needed prior approval to campaign in a white community ?  It would be on CNN/MSNBC 24/7 for weeks. 

TEXAS – Texas politicians are recoiling after a prominent Lubbock Democrat accused Republican candidate for governor Greg Abbott of “piñata politics” in a bigoted tirade and allegedly disparaged Abbott’s Latina wife.

“Greg Abbott came into our house uninvited, wanting to somehow give the illusion that the Lubbock County Hispanic community is supportive,” Lubbock city councilman Victor Hernandez said after Abbott visited the West Texas town and held a campaign rally at a Mexican restaurant. “If you want to come into my house, the first thing you have to do is to see me — see me as a person, see me as a human being, see me as a fellow Texan.” (more…)

Knowing you don’t stand a chance of winning an election does allow a certain liberty not possible with viable candidates….

TEXAS – Texas gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis said Thursday that she would not shy away from being seen with President Barack Obama when he visits the Lone Star State next month.

The Democratic state senator’s comments came two days after she secured her party’s nomination in the deep-red state — but lost a number of border counties, raising questions about her performance among Hispanic voters.

“I’m definitely planning on being at the celebration,” Davis said in a live interview with The Texas Tribune, referring to the April gathering in Austin where Obama and ex-presidents are expected to speak about civil rights at the Lyndon B. Johnson presidential library.

“I’m excited about greeting our president there, and our former presidents,” Davis said. (more…)

I’ve been wondering why our latest FOIA request is hitting an unusually obtuse Miami-Dade School void…. Now, things begin to make a little more sense:

President and first lady go to Miami area for education event tomorrow, and had planned to stay for family weekend in south Florida.

As I’ve said before, numerous times, the political risk in the M-DSPD story is quite large. A single pesky unkempt thread capable of unraveling the story of a much larger systemic construct.

Update below (more…)

 WASHINGTON DC – A leading US senator has said that President Obama knew of an “unprecedented action” taken by the CIA against the Senate intelligence committee, which has apparently prompted an inspector general’s inquiry at Langley.

The subtle reference in a Tuesday letter from Senator Mark Udall to Obama, seeking to enlist the president’s help in declassifying a 6,300-page inquiry by the committee into torture carried out by CIA interrogators after 9/11, threatens to plunge the White House into a battle between the agency and its Senate overseers.

Trying desperately to take advantage of a media cycle filled with all things Ukrainian – John Podesta smooth’s White House agenda under the radar…..  What the administration is trying to do is keep an electorate from feeling the consequences of Obamacare and trying to retain power despite it…. 

(Washington Examiner) – The Obama administration announced Wednesday that it would allow insurers to keep until October 2016 health plans that do not meet Obamacare regulations, pushing back another Affordable Care Act deadline well past November’s midterms.

Facing the prospect of another wave of cancellation notices this fall, the administration took even further action to mitigate the blowback from President Obama’s broken promise that all Americans could keep their health care plans under Obamacare.

The Department of Health and Human Services had already given insurers the option of continuing those plans facing cancellation through 2014, and on Wednesday said those policies could remain in effect an additional two years. (more…)
