*UPDATE* – Walter Scott Shooting Witness, Feidin Santana, Speaks Out – *UPDATE: The Professional Handler Steps In…

Many interesting aspects to what this eye witness saw before the video began and after the video was completed. Witness interview begins at 01:18

UPDATE: Video and User removed?  Oh boy, this is sounding familiar.

You can watch it at NBC SITE HERE – Title: “Exclusive: Extended interview with witness to SC shooting” (2nd video down)

Walter Scott “running from the auto-parts store“? “Wrestling on the ground“? Mr. Scott “being tazed during struggle“? Etc.

Of course none of that negates what is seen in the video; nor does it essentially change the absence of justification; but it does, well, broaden the picture somewhat…. Your thoughts?

update-1UPDATE: WOAH !! Talk about broadening the picture – Video’s removed? Social Media Scrubbed? An “unknown” passenger in the vehicle of Walter Scott when it was pulled over by Officer Michael Slager?….

….and, wait for it…. all of a sudden we find out that Scott Family attorney Chris Stewart has been working with Ryan Julison?

Yes, RYAN JULISON: (more…)

Disconnected Media – John Hinderaker (Powerline Blog) Makes The Point Using NYT…

Powerline Blog makes the point we find ourselves drawing repeated attention to.

By now everyone is familiar with the media narrative claiming the Republican party is shrinking. According to the talking points – conservative beliefs are now only held by a narrow party of old white people and no longer relevant.

However, just because our side sucks at pointing out the obvious, *cough* SEE MAP *cough*, doesn’t mean the obvious is not evident or correct; we just don’t have good candidates and pundits that can highlight the obvious and talk about it.

However, we do have great grassroots advocates who know how to assemble the truth and make splodey heads.  Good people like John Hinderaker can highlight it – READ HERE

Candidate Rand Paul Begins To Experience The Media Grinder….

Figures ! Otis Byrd Family Hires Dr. Baden To Conduct Private Autopsy….

Otis Byrd was the guy found in Mississippi hanging from a tree. The media machine was initially thrilled at the thought of a black victim hanged in Mississippi…. Oh the stories they were ready to sell. Alas, the initial DOJ investigation showed he committed suicide – rats!

otis byrd - mugshot(Via Clarion Ledger) The Byrd family’s attorney has enlisted Dr. Michael Baden, who conducted an autopsy on Michael Brown, to do an independent investigation into Otis Byrd’s hanging death.

The family of a man found hanging from a tree in March does not believe he committed suicide, they announced through their legal counsel Wednesday afternoon.

Otis Byrd, 54, was found March 19 hanging by a bed sheet from a tree not far from his residence in Claiborne County after having been missing for over two weeks. Local authorities called in the FBI after finding his body.

Authorities have said evidence doesn’t suggest foul play, but the results of an autopsy have not been made public. The FBI says it has discussed the autopsy results with the family but the family’s attorneys, Sweet and Associates, disagrees. (more…)

Rand Paul and Ted Cruz – Is it Stupidity, Naiveté or Selfishness?…

If you look at this picture taken during the 2013 non-shutdown government shutdown, you might think Utah Senator Mike Lee and Texas Senator Ted Cruz are two conservatives of a similar mindset – each willing to support the other.

However, if you forward the time machine a few months later you’ll find another optic.

This time it’s early 2014 and Senator Rand Paul and Senator Ted Cruz are discussing the pre-mid-term State of the Union with a rather alarming message.  Neither one of them was going to offer support to any non incumbent GOP challenger in primary races. (more…)

Report: Ted Cruz PAC’s Collect $31 Million For Presidential Bid In First Two Weeks….

It is interesting that a conglomerate of Ted Cruz Political Action Committees are reporting to have collected $31 million in the first two weeks. However, these reports should be tempered against the backdrop that reports from inside the Jeb Bush team assembly have reportedly told their own donors to hold off on writing any more mega-checks because the coffers were gathering too much money. The Bush insiders were leaking that Jeb’s collections were exceeding $100 million per week.

Ted Cruz Value Voters Summit(Via Breitbart) Super PACs backing Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) for president of the United States are taking in a “record haul” that is “eye-popping,” Bloomberg’s Mark Halperin writes.

“Ted Cruz’s presidential effort is getting into the shock-and-awe fundraising business,” Halperin wrote.

An associate of the Texas senator, a recently announced presidential candidate, tells Bloomberg that a cluster of affiliated super-political action committees was formed only this week, and among them they are expected to have $31 million in the bank by Friday.
