Democrat National Committee supporter Bil Maher confronted WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange during an HBO interview which aired last night.

From the video it is clear that Mr. Maher was intent on isolating Assange and protecting the candidacy of Hillary Clinton.  Maher was/is upset about the the damage WikiLeaks created by exposing the intentional bias, fraud and party directed black-ops attacks against former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.

Despite Maher’s best efforts, things did not go according to his plan:

Since I was raised a military ‘brat’, it’ll be no secret to anyone that my heroes are those who have served We The People in the military. Today we’ll look at a man whose most famous and difficult mission was the one being talked about today, 71 years later. If you look up Brigadier General Paul W. Tibbets online, you’ll find countless pictures and articles written (both good and bad) about the mission over Hiroshima. The following is from an obituary printed in the UK, from a website set up by Ret. General Paul W. Tibbets, and from an interview he had with Studs Turkel. W2

Brigadier General Paul Warfield Tibbets

“.. To our fellow veterans and the American nation we all echo one sentiment, “I pray that reason will prevail among leaders before we ever again need to call upon our nuclear might. There are no regrets. We were proud to have served like so many men and women stationed around the world today. To them, to you, we salute you and goodbye.”..” (more…)

Revolutionary “treading” turns into President Obama and Tom Perez “stomping”…

(Via The Daily Mail) The United States workplace discrimination watchdog is considering if employees wearing clothing with a Gadsden flag logo are racial harassing African Americans.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is reportedly investigating the issue surrounding the ‘Don’t Tread On Me’ snake logo after an African American employee of a federal agency complained they were racially harassed when a co-worker wore a cap showing the symbol.

The complainant said he found the cap racially offensive to African Americans because the flag was designed by Christopher Gadsden, who he described as a ‘slave trader & owner of slaves’. (more…)

Late last night we posted the Iranian video the U.S. State Department, President Obama, CNN, and The Washington Post said “did not exist“.  It is from an Iranian documentary video titled “Rules of the Game”.

Since posting the video, which validated an assertion made by Presidential candidate Donald Trump, we have also discovered the english version -LINK- of the same video, as produced by Basirat News:

The controversial exchange, “pallet of $400,000,000 cash for hostages”, can be identified at 11:28 of the english version of the Iranian documentary (video above). (more…)

This is a great example of the current state, and competence, of American Journalism.  Worse yet, this example shows the U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry, didn’t even know what’s going on, and Vice-Presidential Candidate Tim Kaine also joins the crew of the clueless.

CNN and The Washington Post are both making an absurd attack Donald Trump story out of the most simple and easy to prove claim.

Donald Trump said there was video (yes, that’s a screen grab of the video above), put out by Iran, showing the United States sending pallets of cash in exchange for U.S. hostages.

Trump stated the Iranian’s were using the video to “embarrass the President“.  The Washington Post and CNN jumped on the Trump statement and immediately decried it as ridiculous and set out to prove the claim false: (more…)
