A New York Times journalist interrupted candidate Bernie Sanders as he tried to call on another reporter during a press conference.
The intentional interruption was targeted for the current media cycle by repeatedly asking the Vermont senator how he’d address all women who say he is acting sexist for standing in the way of Clinton becoming the first female presidential nominee in American history.
While it is difficult to determine who the questioner is [ADD: It was New York Times Reporter Yamiche Alcindor Pictured above] from the audio of the press conference, the exact question was this:

“What do you say to women … What do you say to women who say that you staying in the race is sexist because you are standing in the way of what would be the first female president”?

If Bernie was quicker on his feet he could have quickly replied: Is Hillary Clinton anti-Semitic because she stands in the way of what might be the first Jewish president?
Alas, an opportunity missed. (more…)

With two weeks remaining before official voting takes place in the United Kingdom (UK) referendum to exit the European Union (EU), the most current polling shows growing support amid the “Leave” movement:

Almost every argument for and against the Brexit vote now centers around self-determination in general, and immigration determination specifically.  All EU nation states operate as a broad open borders region with no statutory impediments to any EU citizen emigrating throughout the region.
The recent influx of economic refugees from the Mid-East (Syria mostly), and North Africa, via Turkey and Greece routes, has opened up a growing problem of uncontrollable inbound migration.  Consequently the economic impacts of higher demand on welfare programs, combined with the downward pressure on wage rates, has many UK citizens questioning their previous support.  Hence, the “leave” coalition is finding growing support.

Not only does she not believe gun ownership is a constitutional right, and refuse to answer the question twice, notice the professional parseltongue:

“if it is a constitutional right“… blah blah blah.

“Shall Not Be Infringed” seems pretty clear to most Americans, and is the basis for the Heller decision (Justice Antonin Scalia) Clinton refuses to name specifically; because to do so would prove her desire to eliminate the second amendment.
The Heller decision stemmed from the ridiculous Washington DC handgun bans.

Texas Judge Andrew Hanen previously sanctioned the DOJ for lying to him several times in his courtroom.  His sanctions had three basic elements:

• DOJ lawyers attend ethics class annually for a period of five years.
• DOJ provide a list of every name, address, and location of each of the 100,000+ DAPA recipients who was granted unlawful immunity.
• Attorney General Lynch to deliver a corrective plan within 60 days. (link)

The DOJ freaked out and requested a hearing to discuss.  The hearing is tomorrow:
(Previously Via Washington Times) The Obama administration accused a federal judge Tuesday of sowing “fear and confusion” among illegal immigrants, potentially scaring them away from signing up for President Obama’s deportation amnesty by demanding immigration officials submit names of tens of thousands of migrants who’ve already enrolled.
Justice Department lawyers also asked Judge Andrew S. Hanen not to force thousands of attorneys to take remedial ethics classes — an order the judge issued two weeks ago after he concluded that the administration intentionally and repeatedly misled him by implementing part of the amnesty, even as they assured the court it wasn’t in operation yet.

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 †

This is well worth watching.  It doesn’t need any set up, and is self explanatory for most:

HatTip Eric for pointing video out. (more…)

Newt Gingrich exemplifies why he sat on the park Bench with Nancy Pelosi promoting carbon taxes and global warming.  Democrat pundit Chris Wallace seems awfully giddy to have a compatriot on the chat:

TTFN.  *sigh*, oh well.  “The scorpion and the Frog” comes to mind….

Scott Adams is a really smart man.  As a wise person he is also adverse to bruising, compound fractures, and anything that potentially removes flesh.  Mr. Adams appreciates his flesh. Skin is not something he favors having penetrated. Skin is a nice thing to have.
As Mr. Adams contemplates the possibilities of his vote amid 2016 presidential politics, he determines it is better to be more like David Souter than Antonin Scalia:

[…] So I’ve decided to endorse Hillary Clinton for President, for my personal safety. Trump supporters don’t have any bad feelings about patriotic Americans such as myself, so I’ll be safe from that crowd. But Clinton supporters have convinced me – and here I am being 100% serious – that my safety is at risk if I am seen as supportive of Trump. So I’m taking the safe way out and endorsing Hillary Clinton for president.  (read more)

The professional democrat party apparatus are desperately trying to make candidate Hillary Clinton the presumptive nominee and dismiss any possible challenge by Bernie Sanders.   The mainstream media machine is trying to assist their efforts.
