Those following the Obama Immigration Executive Action legal battles will note yesterday Congressman Young  was asking Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Saldana the exact same point outlined in Judge Hanen’s rebuke of the White House.

From the ruling:

[Judge Hanen continues…] The President’s message, specifically to those law enforcement officials employed within the Executive Branch, and more generally to the nation, is clear. First, immigration laws (INA), which those officials are charged with enforcing, are not to be enforced when those laws conflict with the 2014 DHS Directive. Second, the criteria set out in that Directive are mandatory. Third, if DHS officials (or other Executive Branch officials) fail to follow the specified criteria, there will be consequences for this failure.

Just as there would be consequences if they were in the military and disobeyed an order from the Commander in Chief. In summary, the Chief Executive has ordered that the laws requiring removal of illegal immigrants that conflict with the 2014 DHS Directive are not to be enforced, and that anyone who attempts to do so will be punished.  (link)

So yesterday ICE Director Saldana is on Capitol Hill answering questions when Republican David Young asks Mrs. Saldana about the conflict between the law, and the rules imposed by President Obama that force border patrol agents to: a.) break the law, or b.) break Obama’s executive action rules.

How Saldana replies is, well, JAW DROPPING.  – Watch video below: (more…)

The Trifecta crew (PJTV) brings some interesting ideas to the table:

Nothing from a Clinton is ever unscripted. Nothing is ever coincidental. Nothing is ever accidental.   …. And this is funny.

(Via Daily Mail)  Hillary Clinton’s astroturf candidacy is in full swing in Iowa.

Her Tuesday morning visit to a coffee shop in LeClaire, Iowa was staged from beginning to end, according to Austin Bird, one of the men pictured sitting at the table with Mrs. Clinton.

Bird told Daily Mail Online that campaign staffer Troy Price called and asked him and two other young people to meet him Tuesday morning at a restaurant in Davenport, a nearby city.

Price then drove them to the coffee house to meet Clinton after vetting them for about a half-hour. (more…)

We said last week – in retrospect the Walter Scott Scheme Team 2015′ would regret hiring image consultant Ryan Julison to represent their interests and develop their chosen narrative. As research continues this opinion solidifies.

Ryan Julison (w/ Matt Lauer) left – Attorney Mark Peper, right

After we identified Walter Scott’s passenger as Pierre Fulton, the image consultants needed to quickly work up a salable story. Ergo the hiring of another attorney, now image consultant, Mark Peper to frame the Fulton angle.  Does anyone ever think to ask who’s paying for all these attorneys?  I digress…

However, Ryan needs to spend a little more time training the side players because apparently Mr. Peper has yet to learn the art of nuance, or subtlety, in narrative construction.

Attorney Peper’s latest attempt to frame the optics for his client, Walter Scott passenger Pierre Fulton, is to claim both Fulton and Scott had just finished volunteering at a local church that morning.  This would be prior to being pulled over at 9:30am by North Charleston Police Officer Michael Slager.  After breakfast at Hardees, they headed to church for their Saturday Morning volunteer efforts.

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — Walter Scott and Pierre Fulton handed out bags of food at a local church Saturday morning and were on their way to a cookout at Scott’s house when they saw an officer’s blue lights behind them, Fulton’s attorney told ABC News Monday night. (link)

Apparently, sewing sweaters for homeless kittens from locks of their altruistic hair was a bridge too far. Hence they settled on the more general church volunteer efforts.

Gotcha. (more…)

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 †

MEMPHIS, Tenn — Wednesday Memphis Police arrested a student who was caught on camera attacking a man at a local BP station.

Joe Brittman, 19, was just one of the people who attacked Orrden Williams as he was helping a woman to her car.

Brittman was arrested at Northwest Prep Academy and charged with aggravated riot, simple assault and vandalism. (read more)

Have they no shame?

Do they know the majority of America is laughing at them?

H/t: The People’s Cube.

The Scheme Team is working overtime now to keep attention away from Walter Scott aspects that would deconstruct their narrative.

EARLIER: “Walter was a dear friend, and I miss him every day,” [Pierre Fulton] stated in a release from Charleston attorney Mark Peper. “Over the past five years, he helped me to become a better man and showed me the value of hard work. I’ll never know why he ran, but I know he didn’t deserve to die. Please keep Walter and his family in your prayers and respect my privacy moving forward.”

Peper said in the release that it will be the only statement his client makes before any court proceeding. (link)

Well, “the only statement” UNLESS the sketchy stuff comes out which might work against our scripted narrative. If the sketchy stuff comes out, well, then we’ll just have to sell some ‘nuther stuff. Like: (more…)

Police arrested a man who steered his tiny, one-person helicopter onto the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol Wednesday, astonishing spring tourists and prompting a temporary lockdown of the Capitol Visitor Center.

It appears the 61-year-old pilot was carrying out a stunt to draw attention to Campaign Finance Reform. He had planned the event for two years and even made a video – SEE HERE – (also below) about his endeavors….. “Hey Mike, watch this”

FLORIDA – […] And just hours before Hughes landed in Washington, Hughes’ friend said he called a Secret Service agent to notify him of the possibility of the gyrocopter flight.

“He’s not a suicide bomber, he’s a patriot,” said Shanahan, 65, of Apollo Beach. The whole stunt centers around Hughes’ effort to change campaign finance laws, “or the lack thereof,” according to Shanahan. (more…)
