Via ABC News) Two al Qaeda-Iraq terrorists were discovered living as refugees in Kentucky in 2009. The men later admitted in court that they’d attacked U.S. soldiers in Iraq, ABC News reported.

The investigation showed that Waad Ramadan Alwan was mistakenly allowed to resettle in Bowling Green, home to Western Kentucky University and very close to the Army’s Fort Knox and Fort Campbell.

Alwan and another Iraqi refugee living there, Mohanad Shareef Hammadi, had been detained during the war by Iraqi authorities, federal prosecutors told ABC News. (more…)

The latest fear mongering approach from the Globalist GOPe advocates (progressive republicans) is to claim they need to attack Donald Trump because he cannot beat Hillary Clinton. This claim is a total sham intended to hide their ulterior motives and here’s why.

First to the substance of the claims – In poll after poll of head-to-head match-ups Donald Trump clearly beats Hillary here are recent examples: (more…)

What a novel concept. We believe in liberty; we believe in freedom; we believe in the rule of law; we believe in being innocent until proven guilty…. we believe in freedom – but increasingly, our government does not.

It is becoming increasingly clear, there is a clash of ideologies between the Islamic East and the Secular/Judea-Christian West. The former openly declaring war and Jihad, the latter refusing to believe/accept it.

The media narratives are nothing if not predictable – The latest NBC Poll (pdf below) reflects the preferred media candidate shifting. Ben Carson on the decline, Ted Cruz rising with the assist of disenfranchised Carson supporters, Rubio steady mid-range and Jeb comfortably playing possum.

Captain Obvious says: if you look at longer term NBC/Survey Monkey polling you find this current poll positioning is essentially right where the top-tier was in August just before Operation Hummingbird kicked in.

What that reflects is exactly what we’ve been outlining. The shaking of the field is nothing more than media grabbed the candidates like a snow globe – shook em’ up – and now the race settles right back where it was originally when the debates started. See: (more…)

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “2016 Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Presidential Race and/or any of the candidates therein.

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Hillary Clinton gave a BIG National Security Policy speech today in New York at the Council of Foreign Relations.  Everything about the event was such a significant fail, it cannot be accidental.  Everything was a fail, both the optics and the substance.

Secretary Clinton delivered an awkwardly high-school-like speech presented with a particularly concerning unfamiliarity the content.   So bizarre is the delivery that it deserves some highlight.  Here’s the full speech, but you only need to watch the first three minutes.  (Note – pay attention to the wording at 02:40 “Radical Jihadism”):

“Radical Jihadism”?  What the heck is that?

What would non-radical jihadism look like?

This is a former Secretary of State;  a person running for the office of the Presidency, and she comes up with “radical jihadism“, seriously?

A large sample national poll conducted by IPSOS for Reuters (full pdf below) reflects an increasingly obvious reality – Donald Trump is the dominant candidate with a vast and growing support base.

Significantly, the data also shows: five times as many independent voters choose Donald Trump over Marco Rubio and/or Ted Cruz.

Political followers have noticed GOPe strategy modified and they stopped attacking Trump directly.  Instead they shifted their marginalization approach by trying to attach Trump to candidate Ted Cruz.

Every effort by Team Trump should be made to keep Ted Cruz at arms length.  We have previously outlined the reason(s) why Cruz’s electoral strategy is doomed to defeat.  There is no winning electoral map within the campaign strategy of Ted Cruz which is based on a very narrow slice of the electorate.  (more…)

Another western media meme goes *POOF* as the French Prime Minister Manuel Valls on Thursday said some of those linked to the Paris attacks had taken advantage of the chaos caused by Europe’s worst migration crisis since World War II “to slip in” unnoticed.

“These individuals took advantage of the refugee crisis.. of the chaos, perhaps, for some of them to slip in” to France, he said.   “Others were in Belgium already. And others, I must remind you, were in France,” he said. (link)

This admission comes as information surfaces that Moroccan intelligence teams helped France find the primary ringleader of the attacks: (more…)
