WASHINGTON STATE –  The Department of Health and Human Services is considering temporarily housing as many as 600 undocumented children at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state, said Air Force Lt. Col. Thomas Crosson, a Defense Department spokesman.
A wave of children has been crossing the border illegally recently. Most of them have fled violence from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.
The Defense Department is already housing about 2,300 children at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas; Naval Base Ventura County, California; and Fort Sill, Oklahoma, Crosson said. (more…)

Just because you have the right to remain silent, does not necessarily mean you have the ability.

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 †

How magnanimous of them both…..

“Yeah, I know, he looked kinda like you’re doing right now”….  “But I told him what I’m going to say to you.  I said ‘she’s gonna be the one using it to wash her hair not you, so why shouldn’t we help'”…..  See?

Before the Lois Lerner issues hit the news, the IRS was sending the identity of conservative Traditional Marriage Defenders to liberal/gay opposition groups so the Rainbow Mafia could target them.   The IRS has admitted doing this.

Yet, with Lois Lerner, and essentially the same claims, the institutional Democrat Party within the IRS claim there is no “there” there.

WASHINGTON – The IRS has agreed to pay $50,000 in damages to the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) for unlawfully releasing its private information to a gay rights group that is a political rival, the Daily Signal has learned.
NOM expressed relief at the settlement agreement.

“Congress made the disclosure of confidential tax return information a serious matter for a reason,” NOM chairman John D. Eastman told The Daily Signal. “We’re delighted that the IRS has now been held accountable for the illegal disclosure of our list of major donors from our tax return.”

WASHINGTON DC – The top U.S. official in charge of archiving federal records testified Tuesday that the IRS ran afoul of the law by neglecting to tell his office that a trove of emails from the woman at the center of the targeting scandal disappeared after an apparent hard drive crash.

Archivist of the U.S. David Ferriero, speaking before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, made clear that federal agencies are supposed to report whenever their records are destroyed or even accidentally deleted. But he said that after emails from embattled IRS official Lois Lerner vanished after a computer failure in 2011, nobody told the National Archives.
“They did not follow the law,” Ferriero said.  (read more)

Operation “A Day In The Life” is a plan to make you believe President Obama is just like you, and cares about you…

We’re not sure which White House Millennial came up with this idea – but odds are they were wearing black framed glasses.    Whoever developed this strategy more than likely lunches with the creator of “Pajama Boy” during the day, and plays beer pong with Tommy “dude”  Vietor at night.

Taking cues from the success of TV show “Undercover Boss”, apparently someone in the White House believes they can transfer the concept to President Obama – and capture for the administration the generally warm sentiment the TV show’s message attempts to leave with its followers.  

WASHINGTON DC – Apparently because he doesn’t get out of the White House enough (?) — or have enough to do? — President Obama will travel to Minnesota on Thursday to “spend a day with Rebekah,” described by the White House as a “hardworking mom from Minneapolis,” who wrote to the president to tell him “how much harder it’s become to get ahead and do right by her family.”
When the president receives letters like Rebekah’s, he “makes notes in the margins, and sits down to reply personally,” the White House said.
This time, he’s made plans to meet with Rebekah — on Thursday — to “spend a day in her shoes.”
In fact, this is the first in a series of “day-in-the-life” visits that President Obama plans to make across the country this summer. (more…)

A new Phoenix VA whistleblower comes forward and shares staggering new developments.   Someone at the Phoenix VA, is TODAY, hiding the number of patients who died on the secret waiting lists.    This CNN Report is astounding:

(CNN) — Records of dead veterans were changed or physically altered, some even in recent weeks, to hide how many people died while waiting for care at the Phoenix VA hospital, a whistle-blower told CNN in stunning revelations that point to a new coverup in the ongoing VA scandal.

“Deceased” notes on files were removed to make statistics look better, so veterans would not be counted as having died while waiting for care, Pauline DeWenter said. (more…)

(Washington Post)  Noted management expert and Internal Revenue Service Commissioner John Koskinen was apparently called out of retirement — like the Ted Williams of evasive, unapologetic bureaucrats — to destroy what is left of his agency’s credibility.

At immediate issue is two years of subpoenaed e-mails from former IRS official Lois Lerner to outside agencies, lost in a convenient computer crash. The possible involvement of other agencies is one focus of a congressional investigation into the heightened IRS scrutiny of conservative nonprofit groups before the 2012 election.
In recent congressional testimony, Koskinen admitted that the e-mails were irretrievably gone; that the “backup tapes” had been erased; and that Lerner’s hard drive was apparently destroyed in an aggressive act of recycling. With that settled, Koskinen expressed his “hope that the investigations  can be concluded in the very near future.”
