UPDATED 11/15/15 below: To include letter from Governor Bobby Jindal to the White House

This is very concerning.  It would appear most of the “refugees” are economic jihadist males between the age of 18-45 years old.   They have recently arrived courtesy of President Obama, Secretary Kerry and the State Department. 

Hillary Clinton’s “Rebels” arrive in the U.S.

New Orleans – […] The first transport of refugees arrived in New Orleans recently and will be resettled in Louisiana and 180 other American communities.

[…] The 10,000 Syrian refugees are first flown to the United States, according to the French news wire Agence France-Presse, with the State Department paying the International Organization for Migration (IOM) for the airfare. (more…)

Something is missing amid all of the punditry opinion regarding the recent 5th CCA ruling upholding the injunction against Obama’s implementation of Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents program (“DAPA”) FULL BACKSTORY HERE.  Something missing which is more serious than the injunction itself.

What is fundamentally missing is several levels of seriousness.

First the underlying 26 state lawsuit has never been argued.  When the states went to federal court to sue the White House (executive action) they asked for an immediate injunction blocking implementation.  The states argued two points:

#1) That if DAPA was allowed to move forward with his executive amnesty there would be irreversible harm to the states.  Granting a new legal status to illegal aliens, including work authorization, would be financially harmful and also a bell impossible to un-ring/reverse if the underlying lawsuit was settled in their favor.

#2) If DAPA was allowed to be implemented those who were charged with executing the Executive Order would be violating law and thereby subject to a condition of punitive action against them for refusing to break the law.

Two very distinct issues, both of which Judge Andrew Hanen accepted as factual in his decision to issue the injunction.   He actually did so brilliantly.

BREAKING: The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals Rules 2-1 to uphold Judge Hanen Injunction (full ruling pdf below)

In a 2-1 ruling of the Fifth CCA (Judge King has lengthy Dissent) the injunction against President Obama’s Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents program (“DAPA”) has been upheld.

The DAPA is commonly referred to as Obama’s Executive Amnesty – Obama Loses.

Twenty Six states filed suit to block the November ’14 Executive Order. A Texas Judge, Andrew Hanen, issued an injunction blocking implementation.  Obama appealed the injunction and lost; then appealed again based on standing – and just lost again.  Here’s the ruling:

However, the release of the 5th Circuit decision today may allow the Supreme Court time to take up the dispute in Obama’s term, if a third appeal is attempted.  A favorable Supreme Court ruling could then override the injunction and permit Obama to implement the executive actions next summer.

The problem for the White House is the substantive legal issues within the original Hanen ruling have not been argued in Hanen’s court or the/any appellate court.  They have only argued the ability of Hanen to block them (ie “standing), not the merits of the underlying case.

Therefore the route to SCOTUS would only be on the legal issues of Hanen’s injunction – and not on the legal issues of the Executive Order itself. It’s doubtful SCOTUS would take up such a case.

… then quizzically poses the question, ‘gee, I wonder why’; to wit Don Mattingly in drag, aka Rachel Maddow, opines about structural advantages created by those pesky and brilliantly strategic republicans.

Yes, this is what they tell themselves – it’s never palatable to conceive the electorate are just sick and tired of Moonbat policies that always fail yet continue to return like the Phoenix from the ashes of retread socialism only to be tried yet again…

*Update w/correction* Potus signatory timeline is 60 days, congressional debate has 90 days.

This is important and those who understand the TPP deal need to begin pressuring your congress creeps immediately.   President Obama has delivered the required “Notice of Intent” letter to congress.

The White House is legally bound to tell congress they intend to enter into a trade-deal.  Obama has just made the text available to the public. In 60 days he can sign the agreement and send trade agreement to Congress for debate, vote and approval.  Congress is allowed 90 days for debate after presidential signature.  The letter below officially starts the clock.

President Obama is hoping to use Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year holidays as strategic tools to run out the clock on any efforts to provide WH pushback on the anti-American deal:

Incredible expose’ article within Breitbart showcasing the depth of the trickery being played by the GOPe in their efforts to install Amnesty advocate Paul Ryan.

The article highlights a PBS documentary containing this video of House Freedom Caucus founder Representative Mick Mulvaney, and further goes on to show Machiavellian scheme constructed for several years:

UPDATE:  Having watched the full PBS outline (Available Here) any conservative pundit, media outlet, blogger or activist who doesn’t immediately begin pulling back the curtain on this construct doesn’t deserve to be considered as legitimate.

The PBS story absolutely appears to be the initial thread to discover that Speaker John Boehner’s decision to abdicate his position, and the decision by McCarthy to withdraw from consideration, was/is a planned scheme to advance Paul Ryan specifically to attain immigration reform. (more…)

A recent article at Real Clear Politics hits on one of the key aspects of the Benghazi fiasco that recent media are hell-bent on hiding; Hillary Clinton, not President Obama, is actually the person responsible for the crisis in Libya.

Watching the House Select Committee on Benghazi hearings, it was interesting to note how no-one really went ‘there’ to give Clinton full ownership of the 2011 Libyan Intervention.  So let’s review Clinton’s ownership.

It’s as if both congress and the media have forgotten those ridiculous 19-days in 2011 when Hillary was flying back-and-forth to meet with French Prime-Minister Sarkozy and plan their endeavors.

In the U.S. presidential adviser Samantha Power was  bending Obama’s ear with declarations of a “Responsibility to Protect” (R2P) the Eastern Libyan citizens from the boogie man narrative assigned to Gadaffi.

Meanwhile in New York,  U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice was answering calls from her British and French counterparts who were similarly selling an interventionist message.  Back in the White House, President Obama was reluctant to engage.  It was Secretary Clinton working overtime to bring the President into the same line of thinking as herself.

“Based on the evidence developed in this investigation and the recommendation of experienced career prosecutors and supervising attorneys at the Department, we are closing our investigation and will not seek any criminal charges.”

~  Assistant Attorney General Peter Kadzik

WASHINGTON (AP) — No IRS official would face criminal charges arising from the political controversy over the processing of applications for tax-exempt status, the Justice Department announced Friday.

In a letter to members of Congress, the department said that while investigators had found “mismanagement, poor judgment and institutional inertia,” there was no evidence of a crime. (more…)

When we wrote the Benghazi Brief we walked through almost two years of research data from February 2011 through September 2012.   The brief describes the who’s, what’s, where, when and why of everything up to 9/11/12.

However, we did not have the specific “why” of the actual attack itself.   Recent document releases fill in that aspect:
