Stunning New Dot Connections – Methinks the White House doth protest too much. I would love to see Josh Earnest try to square the circle of this recent revelation.

The facts of this story have existed in discussion since last year, yet failed to capture traction until the recent protestations of VP Joe Biden, and Secretary of State John Kerry.

From a radio interview in October of 2014 Mark Levin discusses with Michael Leeden the details of a secret message sent by candidate Senator Barack Obama to Iran in 2008 via a former Ambassador, William G Miller.

In essence the content of the communique was Senator Obama telling the Iranian government not to negotiate with the outgoing George Bush administration because Obama was more friendly toward the position of Iran and he would work to structure a more favorable outcome to the Iranian people.

Here’s audio of the 2014 conversation between Levin and Leeden:

It is a remarkable revelation given the level of apoplectic response recently from the White House and State Dept. to a rather innocuous “open letter” from 47 Senators. (more…)

At the end of January the first reports surfaced of a coordinated effort between the White House and State Department to use the construct of OFA (Organizing For America), the activist group who spearheaded the voter activity for President Obama, to assist an Israeli opposition group known as V15.

V15 is described as a “grassroots” movement intended to remove Benjamin Netanyahu from office.   The national field director from President Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign, Jeremy Bird, went to Israel to assist V15 in the mirror image campaign strategy and message of OFA. 

OFA was/is the Astroturf political movement funded by Large Democrat Donors and Left-Wing Organizations which helped elect President Barack Obama.

The U.S. State Department gave money to V15 for use in Israel.  V15 is supporting Netanyahu’s opponent, Isaac Herzog.   V15 is saying they are not using the money from the State Dept, delivered via OneVoice, to eliminate Netanyahu, but rather just to help their GOTV organizational efforts.

However, simultaneous to Jeremy Bird joining the V15 movement, Joe Biden and John Kerry met with Isaac Herzog in Germany.  It is brutally obvious Joe Biden and John Kerry, along with the White House and State Department, are trying to remove Benjamin Netanyahu.   Now a congressional probe has been launched.

“there’s no need to take that tone with me“… Yikes.

Within a rather extensive article in Time Magazine of Hillary Clinton’s disposition toward political truth and fact-finding the following paragraph strikes a rather disconcerting message:

TIME – […] All this once made sense to Clinton. As a candidate for President in 2008, she included “secret White House email accounts” as part of her critique of the Bush Administration’s “stunning record of secrecy and corruption.” Now, however, Clinton is leaning heavily on “Trust me.”

For more than a year after she left office in 2013, she did not transfer work-related email from her private account to the State Department. She commissioned a review of the 62,320 messages in her account only after the department–spurred by the congressional investigation–asked her to do so. And this review did not involve opening and reading each email; instead, Clinton’s lawyers created a list of names and keywords related to her work and searched for those. Slightly more than half the total cache–31,830 emails–did not contain any of the search terms, according to Clinton’s staff, so they were deemed to be “private, personal records.” (read more)

I’ve tried three times to write this… but the knot in my throat keeps blocking the keystrokes.  There’s a couple of pictures that everyone needs to see today.

Especially today.

The first picture to see is 6-year-old Marcus Johnson. Marcus was a kindergartner at Highland Elementary in the Riverview Gardens School District.

[…] The shooting happened about 7:30 p.m. [last night] as the family was leaving O’Fallon Park, just south of Interstate 70 in north St. Louis. Inside the van were three adults and five children.

The family said that a black vehicle pulled alongside their minivan on West Florissant Avenue and someone inside opened fire, Green said. The father of the child was driving the minivan grabbed a firearm and returned fire, police said.

After realizing three people in the minivan had been shot, the driver called police.

A 15-year-old boy and a 69-year-old man in the minivan were also hit. Both were being treated at a hospital. Police would not give their conditions, but said they were stable.

The child’s mother and three other children, ages 7, 10, and 11, were also in the minivan, police said. They were not hurt. (link)

Marcus was rushed by police to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Which brings me to the second picture. (more…)

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) just released the full text of their net neutrality rules. The rules were approved two weeks ago amid much controversy. The exhaustive document they have released includes statements from the five FCC commissioners.

The rules are 313 pages, and were approved on a 3-2 vote. The FCC essentially has reclassified broadband Internet as a telecommunications service in order to regulate. Internet service providers are now regulated – they may not block, slow or prioritize any part of Internet traffic above another.

Earlier today Steve Hayes reported that Hillary aides Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills also used the “clintonmail” personal email scheme to communicate and avoid disclosure.  Now the Wall Street Journal is reporting that Huma and Cheryl were key players in the original plan to set up the communication network.

The “inner circle” around Hillary is comprised of Huma Abedin, Cheryl Mills, Philippe Reines, Jake Sullivan, Capricia Marshal and Maggie Williams – in that order.

(Via WSJ) Before Hillary Clinton became secretary of state in 2009, one of her most trusted confidantes approached Bill Clinton’s aides with a plan. Mrs. Clinton wanted to run her private email account through the server her husband set up in the family’s Chappaqua, N.Y., home, people familiar with the matter said.

A private server had obvious advantages. It would give Mrs. Clinton more control over her email, people familiar with her team’s reasoning said. Privately, aides of the former president worried that adding her account would make the system a target for hackers. They also weren’t aware she would use it for all her official correspondence.

That decision has now invited the kind of relentless public scrutiny it was designed to avoid, while also maximizing Mrs. Clinton’s control over sensitive email correspondence that that she might not want to get out. (more…)

Systemic, purposeful fraud and deception.

That is what this is.

Below you will find the full 2015 State Dept. Office of Inspector General (OIG) report which shows -as an example- that in 2011 over 1,000,000,000,000 email documents were created as part of official State Department business, but only 61,000 of them were properly archived and recorded as part of official business records.

The U.S. State Department under Hillary Clinton’s leadership only kept 0.000061% of email documents for public inspection.

Which leads to the obvious retort from Senator Tom Cotton:

Important question: if deal with Iran isn't legally binding, then what's to keep Iran from breaking said deal and developing a bomb?

— Tom Cotton (@SenTomCotton) March 11, 2015

Secretary of State John Kerry, Defense Secretary Ashton Carter, and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair General Martin Dempsey testified today at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on President Obama’s request for authorization for use for military force (AUMF) against ISIS. -full hearing here-

However, Democrats strategically planted a question for Secretary John Kerry (by Senator Chris Murphy) to attack Republican Senators for their recent controversial open letter to Iran. Kerry had a scripted response for the question he was anticipating. Within that response was the startling statement/claim the White House is not negotiating a “legally binding agreement with Iran” to stop their nuclear weapons program.

If you are short on time watch this first video. However, if you have the 7 minutes to watch the entire response skip to the second video.
