This has festered long enough now...I like Marco Rubio, however it is not his time...time for him to drop his ego and join with Ted Cruz..I am sure there is a place for him in Ted Cruz's administration a place where he can gain some experience as well as contribute. As for Kasich he needs to also drop his ego...he is part of the establishment not a outsider...he needs to just keep his day job as Ohio Gov and fade into the sunset!

Actual Fascism Was My #NeverTrump Moment


By
Better late than never, I suppose.
Though I have been relentlessly anti-Donald Trump for months now — constantly referring to him as a big-government faux-conservative fraudster — I nonetheless publicly wrote only eleven days ago that I would vote for Trump in a general election.  My reasoning was fairly straightforward: the untimely death of legendary Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia made the future of the Court a particularly salient political issue, given the surprisingly strong commitments thus far from Mitch McConnell and Chuck Grassley to hold the line on Obama SCOTUS nominees, and the fact that Trump himself had name-dropped two excellent possible replacements in U.S. Court of Appeals Judges Diane Sykes and William Pryor.
No more.  This man is such a unique menace to our system of governance, to our rule of law, to our national ethos, and to our culture that I simply cannot see myself ever voting for him.  I have determined that even if (a big “if”) Trump were to actually eschew his penchant for “flexibility” and indeed nominate committed constitutionalists to the Court, that it simply would not be worth the massive downsides.

So I’m officially now joining Erick and other contributors here on team #NeverTrump.
Sure, I was deeply, deeply disturbed by his Michael Moore-style clownish 9/11 Trutherism at the South Carolina debate, as well as his knowing pandering to unrepentant white supremacist groups.  But last night was really the final straw, for me.  And no, I’m not talking about Trump literally defending his manhood size on national television, because, after all:


Ben Shapiro ✔ ‎@benshapiro
I fondly recall Federalist #89, in which James Madison pointed out that his penis was far out of proportion to his diminutive height.

Right.  But Trump went far beyond the confines of deeply immature, schoolyard-style bullying rhetoric — though there was, indeed, plenty of that.  He repeatedly doubled down on his unspeakably immoral claim that he would commit himself to actively forcing serving military members to commit war crimes.  Yes, that’s right: Donald Trump, big tough guy, is now firmly committed to leveraging his solemn Article II Commander-in-Chief prerogative to force the military to murder innocent women and children in some horrifyingly Twilight Zone-style alternative universe form of “deterrence.”
There are a few points to make on this.
Let us first stipulate that Bill Blankschaen is absolutely right that such a willful disregard for respecting the consciences of nobler people than himself belies Trump’s entire premise that he would nominate constitutionally sound, pro-conscience protection jurists to the federal Judiciary.  It is crass moral repugnance of the highest order.

Let us next stipulate how wildly, unspeakably irresponsible a thing this is to say for a would-be Commander-In-Chief.  The entire military edifice is predicated on hierarchy, and this hierarchy utterly collapses when you put uniformed men and women in a position where they will be forced to try to block a Commander-in-Chief’s attempt to jam an illegal war crime order down their throats.  Here is Iraq War veteran David French, over at National Review:

…words cannot express the contempt I felt for Trump’s insistence that the military would follow his unlawful orders to murder women and children.  There are men who’ve paid the ultimate sacrifice rather than kill the innocent, yet he pretends our warriors would simply salute and follow orders when told to kill women and children for the sole purpose of punishing terrorists. Trump is sadly mistaken.  If he won the White House and tried to implement his ‘policy,’ the military would refuse to comply — because it has honor, because it respects the law, and because it knows the lessons of history.  No order can justify an atrocity.

The very core of the President’s contemplated Article II constitutional role is to serve as Commander-in-Chief.  This cannot be emphasized enough.  There is nothing more important that a U.S. President does.  Donald Trump is openly bragging about how he would force his military men and women underlings to violate their consciences and violate international law by committing clear-cut, undisputed war crimes under the Geneva Conventions.
To drill home the point further, here is fellow Iraq veteran “Hooah_Mac” over at RedState:

This is even further trashing of the honor and dignity of the members of the world’s best military.  No Soldier I trained would ever obey that order.  Even worse is to contemplate the soul-destroying reality for any that did obey it.  Killing a combatant in defense of yourself and your battle buddies is right and just, but it never leaves you.  In the back of your mind is always the realization that you took a human life, no matter how justified.  How could anyone contemplate putting Soldiers in the position to live the rest of their lives seeing the faces of dead innocent children in their dreams every night?
Donald Trump cannot be the Commander-in-Chief of the United States Military.  If nothing else convinces you to be #NeverTrump, think of the men and women who offer their lives in defense of your freedom.  Think of what Trump as President means to them in light of what he said at the debate.

If you respect individual conscience, if you eschew cold-blooded murdering of innocent women and children, if you respect the rule of law, if you respect the solemnity of the Commander-in-Chief role, if you respect our military — I fail to see how this is not a hard line.  I am now openly on team #NeverTrump.  I will not degrade my own integrity to vote for this man in the dystopian world where he hijacks the Republican Party’s presidential nomination.
Trump has previously disdained our constitutional structure and made despotic overtones.  But last night was the first time he actually summoned the ghosts of the fascists of the past in such a transparent, unapologetic way:

Jeff B/DDHQ ‎@EsotericCD
Trump's had *quasi*-fascist moments in campaign. But saying US military "won't refuse me" if he demands unlawful acts actually LEGIT fascist

 I’m totally done with him.  No more.  #NeverTrump

No, Donald Trump, The Military Doesn’t Have to Obey All Orders


 oped: First and foremost a little history lesson about illegal orders for those not familiar with the Vn era 1968 My Lai massacre incident...Orders came down from the Pentagon via the POTUS to take the village out...it was infested with NVA and VC... Body count was stressed in the order as was the goal of the war effort at the time! 
After the incident the mission was praised until it was reported by a support Huey pilot of the massacre of civilians...Even the then Major Colin Powell (General) supported Lt Calley then turned against when the massacre hit the news...and as it always is the proverbial S*** rolls downhill...Field Grade Officers~ Majors and above pointed the finger at Capt Medina, Lt Calley's CO, Captain Medina then pointed the finger at Lt Calley who took the blunt of the charges...This is why the UCMJ should always be followed relating to illegal orders as the bottom one who carries out the orders is always the one to take the fall!


By  
“I’m a leader. I’ve always been a leader. I’ve never had any problem leading people. If I say do it, they’re gonna do it. That’s what leadership is all about.” – Donald J. Trump
In a remarkable display of arrogance, Donald Trump on Thursday night at the Fox News debate in Detroit declared that if he ordered the U.S. military to kill terrorist families or carry out acts of torture, they would do it. The question came from Bret Baier, who recited a list of Trump’s various public statements about torture and interrogation techniques and asked Trump if he was sure the military would carry out orders to that effect.
“They won’t refuse. They are not going to refuse me, believe me,” Trump said before going on to emphasize that he’s a great leader and nobody refuses to do what he tells them to do.

Trump is running for the presidency of the United States. The president is the commander in chief of the military, the military is a part of the executive branch and is responsible to the president and to Congress, which funds it and imposes restrictions on it through laws like the Uniform Code of Military Justice and other portions of the federal code, and treaties the Senate ratifies and makes the nation a party to.
This power structure that governs the military comes directly from the Constitution of the United States.
Officers in all branches of the military take an oath to uphold the Constitution. Like the president himself, they are responsible for fulfilling their duties in accordance with the Constitution of the United States. The officer oath reads in part:

“I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservations or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office upon which I am about to enter; So help me God.”
Enlisted military members, for their part, swear an oath that reads: “I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.” [Emphasis added]

Both officers and enlisted Soldiers may refuse to carry out an order if it is an unlawful order. Just because a member of the military disagrees with an order does not make it unlawful. Lawful orders may cost lives, lawful orders may require the destruction of enemy material, lawful orders may involve extreme discomfort, danger, injury and loss of life. They may seem stupid, pointless, unnecessary, inconvenient, unwise, even irrational; but as long as the order does not violate the Constitution of the United States, the UCMJ, any regulation governing the use of force or any treaty the nation is party to, the order is lawful.
Unlawful orders would include the killing of innocent civilians – families of terrorists are not combatants, they are innocents – the killing of enemy prisoners of war, and the carrying out of torture, among other prohibited acts. If a military leader at any level issued an order mandating or requiring such conduct, subordinate leaders and military members would be allowed to ignore that order.

The ability to refuse compliance with an unlawful order is an essential part of the military’s culture, a key tenant of the ethics that govern the development and employment of services with the capability to kill the nation’s enemies. The normal due process protections that limit how the government can punish criminals who happen to be citizens don’t apply in warfare. There is no trial, no finding of fact for each individual enemy engaged; once Congress has authorized the president to use military force, within the rules of engagement those forces have the power to take human life and wreak havoc and destruction.
A force powerful enough to make war is a force powerful enough to seize control of the government, bend popular opinion to its will, and squelch civil liberties. For all of the varied missions it can and does fulfill, the military is raw power applied through different tools and systems in different ways. In our Constitutional Republic, that power is controlled by a system of checks and balances including the oath that members of the military swear to uphold and protect the Constitution of the United States.

Donald Trump does not understand our system of government. He lacks even a basic grasp of civics. To him, might makes right, and titles bestow all the credibility and moral authority needed to enforce edicts. That kind of a mentality, that worldview, may be entertaining on television, but it is the mark of a despot when backed by force.
On Friday, Trump’s campaign walked back his remarks about supporting the killing of innocents related to terrorists and other war crimes. Let’s hope his issued statement finds its way into his future debate appearances.
The consequences of a military that mindlessly executes orders up to and including ones that result in war crimes are permanent. Today’s Army leaders still look at the case of the My Lai Massacre in March 1968 amid the swamps of South Vietnam as a warning beacon for what happens when moral bankruptcy meets opportunity on the field of battle.

Are you ready for World War III?

syriamess
by GS Early 
What does it say about the mass media when massive forces from Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Turkey and Egypt are sitting in Turkey along the Syrian border ready to invade, and it’s not front page news?
It’s likely that most of the mainstream media thinks the U.S. can hold the reins on this Saudi-led coalition of Sunni Muslim nations. The problem is, there’s a lot of unrest in the House of Saud right now, and it’s already fighting (poorly) a war against Shia Muslims in Yemen, on its southern border.
Saudi Arabia is also running the train on global oil prices, trying to drive higher cost U.S. producers into submission and destabilize Russia at the same time. It’s actually likely the U.S. is at least a silent partner in the Saudi move since low oil prices hurt Russia more than the U.S. and also hurt Iran, since Iran’s oil exports have now come back online after years of embargo. Low prices keep the Iranians in check.

But the problem is that the biggest victim of the low oil prices at this point may well be Saudi Arabia itself. Since it has very little diversity in its economy, if oil is cheap the Kingdom doesn’t have the cash to throw around.
Also bear in mind that the royal family isn’t a benevolent monarchy of Sunnis. There are many restive elements, from Shias to foreign workers to more fundamental and liberal religious movements. And a bad economy brings all these elements to the surface.
As we in the U.S. know all too well, if your economy is in the dumps, one of the best solutions is a big war in a small country where you clamp down hard on domestic agitators under a “national security” cloak without drawing much attention. This is very tempting to Saudi leaders.

Saudi Arabia is also angry about the new U.S. nuclear treaty with Iran, since the fundamentalist Sunnis do not like the conservative Shias. Saudi Arabia sees Syria as a way to show it can be a regional leader and go after Syria’s leadership. It is itching for a fight.
And the U.S. probably likes the idea of this coalition doing the dirty work. Muslims fighting Muslims.
However, there are some serious issues here since Turkey is more interested in controlling its nemesis, the Kurds, in Syria (while no one is looking). And the Saudis are actually kindred spirits of ISIS. They are both fundamentalist Sunnis and it’s very likely that the Saudis are supporting them, like Iran supports Hezbollah (which is fighting in Syria with the Russians for the Syrian government).

But if they cross that border, then Turkey, a NATO ally, is now engaged in a hot war with Syria, Iran and Russia directly. That’s a weird place to be for NATO, since they would technically have to support Turkey.
Also, these forces are not the best equipped to be marching on the battle tested forces that are in Syria right now. The Saudis are having a hard time bringing a breakaway Shia group in Yemen to heel. Simply put, they’re not ready for prime time. It would be a massive embarrassment internationally if this coalition got sent packing.
But the biggest issue is the fact that if the Keystone Cops Coalition stumbles into Syria, it could well have serious blowback in Saudi Arabia, Europe and the U.S. And might start WW III.
If the Saudis go into Syria to settle the score with Iran, there’s a good chance the Kingdom may suffer. Remember, wars are very expensive and when your economy is doing poorly, it will gut the national resources. And those restive forces are ready to pounce.

If Saudi Arabia begins to implode, the U.S. will have to step in, as will Iran and the Russians. It would likely be a fire that would light up the entire Middle East.
What does all this mean for you? It means you need to check Personal Liberty Digest™ and other alternative media that will actually tell you this is going on, and if this force does move, oil will soar because the risk premium will go from 0 to 100 in nanoseconds. The United States Oil ETF (USO) or for the risk takers the Velocity Shares 3x Long Crude Oil ETN (UWTI) are a good way to jump in on the rally. USO focuses on U.S. oil production. U.S. producers would revel from a Saudi collapse.
It will also be a boon for gold and the U.S. dollar, which will be a safe port in the storm. But in the end, it’s likely it will spell the end of the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency (basically that means, since every commodity is priced in U.S. dollars, every nation that needs commodities has to have U.S. dollars). That fight for primacy means gold wins again.

A bloodless coup

March 3, 2016
by Bob Livingston 
As Donald Trump steamrolled through the Super Tuesday primary it became so apparent that the Republican establishment (GOPe) cares only about party and power and not about the people that even the most brain dead Republican voter had to see it.
The GOPe thinks party first, corporate paymasters second and voters last, if at all. That’s why so many of them can’t figure out the Trump phenomenon. South Carolina Congressman Trey Gowdy thinks Republican voters are just having a “temper tantrum” and that it’ll end soon “for the good of the party.” Establishment types, from Senator Marco Rubio to Senator Mitch McConnell to Mitt Romney whine and wail that Trump is “destroying the party.”
If he is, Trump supporters say “good riddance.” They couldn’t care less about “good of the party.”

The Trumpster is a creation of the GOPe. Republican voters had their “temper tantrums” in 2010, 2012 and 2014 where they rose up against Obamacare and bailouts, formed grass roots Tea Parties across the fruited plain, and increased the Republican rolls in congress and in state houses more each year. They did this only to see the so-called “conservatives” they sent to the District of Criminals (and sometimes to their own state capitols) betray them with  less than half-hearted stabs at repealing Obamacare and by passing bloated spending bills, continuing to ignore (and often advocate for) Obama’s efforts to legalize illegal alien invaders, bringing in more foreigners to displace American STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) workers via H-1B visas and making bad trade deals. (Update: During the GOP debate Thursday night, Trump flip-flopped on H-1B visas and said more foreign tech workers are needed. This is no doubt the first of many betrayals Trump voters will see.)

Trump voters – and some Ted Cruz and Ben Carson voters —  are essentially telling politicians to take a powder. And that includes all politicians. They have no more use for the lying, conniving, double-dealing, sociopathic political class. The torch- and pitchfork-carrying hoi polli are on they way, and they want to dismantle the District of Criminals plank by plank.
The people are sick of politicians trying to “remake” America into a Third-World hellhole where illegals take jobs at slave wages and qualify for all manner of welfare. They are sick of “free trade” deals that incentivizes transnational corporations to send manufacturing jobs to other countries and put American manufacturers at a disadvantage. They are sick politicians who give free hand to federal alphabet soup regulatory agencies to regulate American companies out of business and send armed and militarized  LEOs (legally entitled to oppress) on the people for raising “unapproved” rabbits and hogs, selling fresh milk and vegetables and digging trenches and ponds on their own property.

Meanwhile, the GOPe are showing their disdain for the people by vowing to ignore their will and 1) engage in shenanigans at the convention to strip Trump of the nomination; or 2) fund a milquetoast loser like Mittens in a third-party challenge (that will assure the election of the Witch from Chappaqua); or 3) outright vote for the most corrupt woman in the history of politics over the nominee from their own party if it’s Trump. And Rubio has vowed to continue his campaign through the convention (so he can be anointed on behalf of the New World Order crowd) in order to deny Trump the nomination.
Some pundits and politicians are lamenting that Republican Party is dying. Super Tuesday showed the Republican Party, as the elite understand it, is dead already. The GOPe killed it with its own hubris and criminality. The voters, tired of being ignored and played for fools, have revolted. Two thirds or more of Republican votes thus far have been cast for the non-establishment candidate.

The Republican Party of Bush the lesser, Romney, John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Paul Ryan is being repudiated — and dismantled — before our eyes.
Trump voters are remaking the party from the ground up. They don’t care about Trump’s policies beyond he’s going to “build a wall,” “make good trade deals,” “deport illegals,” “cut back on immigration” and “make America great again.” They figure there is nothing the Trumpster can do that’s worse than what political class has been doing to them for years.
This is — so far — a bloodless coup.

BREAKING: 1 Hillary Email SHOWED Terrorists How to Kill Amb. Chris Stevens

BREAKING: SHOCK Hillary Email JUST DISCOVERED Giving Information To Terrorists How To Kill Ambassador Stevens [Read Full Story Here]
By: Wilmot Proviso
An email released Monday pertaining to the Benghazi investigation from Hillary Clinton’s private email server revealed that a message detailing the location of murdered Ambassador Chris Stevens passed through the unsecured server, raising the possibility that terrorists could have intercepted the message.
According to Breitbart, the April 10, 2011, email from State Department employee Timmy Davis was forwarded to the server by Clinton’s aide, Huma Abedin.
“The situation in Ajdabiyah has worsened to the point where Stevens is considering departure from Benghazi,” Davis’ email read.

“The envoy’s delegation is currently doing a phased checkout (paying the hotel bills, moving some comms to the boat, etc). He will monitor the situation to see if it deteriorates further, but no decision has been made on departure. He will wait 2-3 more hours, then revisit the decision on departure.”

abedin clinton
The email is the latest in a chain of emails that reveal Ambassador Stevens‘ location was readily available to anyone who could hack into Hillary Clinton’s unsecured private email server.
In March of 2011, an email stated that, “The current game plan is for Mr. Stevens to move no later than Wednesday from Malta to Benghazi. He will stage offshore initially for a one day visit during which he will have meetings with TNC (Transitional National Council) interlocutors and get a sense of the situation on the ground. The goal of this one day trip is for him to lay the groundwork for a stay of up to 30 days.”
Then, on April 8, another email reported that the “security situation in Benghazi remains quiet. Chris Stevens & team are in the hotel, moving only for meetings as required.”  https://youtu.be/EZtVcDXZBm8





On April 22, another email detailing Stevens’ travel plans: “I want to let you know about a temporary rotation in Benghazi. TNC Envoy Chris Stevens has been on the road since March 13, when he began his outreach mission, and has been in Benghazi since April 5.”
And then, on April 24, there was an email which told the exact time Ambassador Stevens would be having a meeting:
“Stevens will be meeting with MFA in one hour and will make a written request for better security at the hotel and for better security-related coordination. He still feels comfortable in the hotel. They are looking into the idea of moving into a villa, but that is some way off.”
We may never know whether terrorists were able to break into Hillary Clinton’s non-secure personal server, especially given the amount of subterfuge that Clinton has engaged in to ensure her emails stay buried.

To make things worse, Hillary Clinton doesn’t care. She’s willing to put her own electoral chances above the lives of four Americans, including a U.S. ambassador.
And this is the woman that Democrats want to make president. It’s time for America to stand up and say no. Please like and share on Facebook and Twitter if you agree.

Meet These Swedish Bikini-Clad Anti-Groping Girl Vigilantes

 http://constitution.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/314F0FDC00000578-3450713-image-m-7_1455701866112.jpg
by Bethany Blankley
The Daily Mail exclusively reported on the latest phenomenon Swedes are resorting to in attempt to keep Islamists from molesting their women and girls.
At one particular public swimming pool in Kalmar, Sweden, several women banded together, calling themselves “Tafsvakten,” or “Groping Guards.”
Wearing bikinis and tattoos, these women are taking matters into their own hands after five women were molested in their town by Islamic migrants in the last few months.

Kalmar, south of Stockholm, has opened 34 migrant centers to handle the 6,000 migrants imported into their tiny town of 36,000 residents. And like Cologne, Germany, Kalmar is experiencing an extreme increase in the number of sexual assaults by Muslims against its women and girls.

One guard, Siri Bernhardsson, told the Mail:
“We are here to teach these boys they must learn to behave. We are tired of men thinking they can come to Sweden and molest women when all we want is to be left in peace to swim without being felt up.”
She added:
“It happens at concerts, in train stations and in swimming pools. Most of the victims feel ashamed and don’t report it to the police. We know that there have been attacks in our swimming pool that have not been reported.
“They have been forced to separate men from women in the jacuzzis because of all the attacks. That should not happen in 2016 in Sweden.”
These women are regular people, citizens, patrolling pools for the safety of their neighbors. They are Siri Bernhardsson, Lotta Stenberg, Ella Sjoberg, and Malin Gustafsson.

Two More Bundys Arrested: The Mindless Unconstitutional Government Rolls On




by:
This is so disgusting. The statist mentality has infested every federal enforcement agency and the federal government is running scared. Have you raised your voice in dissent against the government’s unlawful land grabs out west? Then get ready to meet your Maker, or your Slavemaster (who somehow has come to think it created you). They are picking off the ones who stood up to protect the Bundy family from gun-pointing BLM thugs. Never forget – the BLM pointed guns at innocent ranchers and their family before anyone pointed guns back at the unlawful BLM criminals.
Today, March 03, 2016, has been a very dark day for the Constitution, as badge-toting statist ego-maniacs arrested good Americans for standing up to the federal government’s criminality. Just hours ago, on March 03, 2016, the Salt Lake Tribune posted this article with a pictured fingerprint over-layed with the appropriate name for what this government has done – “CRIME” — Though the newspaper wants readers to think that the victims of these arrests are criminals, history will show that the government and its minions are the ones who actually have committed “crime”.

Bundy family members arrested in Utah

on federal warrant

http://www.sltrib.com/news/3611906-155/bundy-family-member-arrested-in-utah
First Published Mar 03 2016 10:57AM by Jennifer Dobner
Excerpts from article: 

Federal agents made arrests in six states — including Utah — on Thursday, rounding up supporters of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy for their participation in a 2014 armed standoff with federal agents.
In all, 12 men were arrested, including two of Bundy’s sons: David “Davey” Harold Bundy, 39, of Delta, Utah, and his brother, Melvin D. Bundy, 41, of Round Mountain, Nev., federal officials said.
The men are two of the 14 children of Cliven Bundy, the 69-year-old Bunkerville, Nev., cattleman who last month was arrested and indicted on 16 federal charges related to a standoff near his ranch as part of a long-running dispute with the Bureau of Land Management over unpaid grazing fees….
In a news release, the U.S. Department of Justice said the arrests follow the Wednesday return of a new grand jury indictment in Nevada’s U.S. District Court.
The indictment charges 14 new individuals with one count each of conspiracy to commit and offense against the United States, conspiracy to impede or injury a federal officer, weapon use and possession, assault on a federal officer, threatening a federal law enforcement officer, obstruction of justice, extortion to interfere with commerce and interstate travel in aid of extortion. 


The charges carry penalties ranging from five to 20 years in federal prison.
The indictment also alleges five counts of criminal forfeiture, which could require defendants to surrender more than $3 million in properties derived from the proceeds of the alleged crimes, the DOJ statement says.
“This investigation began the day after the assault against federal law enforcement officers and continues to this day,” Nevada’s U.S. Attorney Daniel Bogden said in a statement. “We will continue to work to identify the assaults and their role in the assault and the aftermath, in order to ensure that justice is served…
Also arrested on Thursday were: Gerald A. DeLemus, 61, of Rochester, N.H.; Eric J. Parker, 32, of Hailey, Idaho; O. Scott Drexler, 44, of Challis, Idaho; Richard R. Lovelien, 52, of Westville, Okla.; Steven A. Stewart, 36, of Hailey, Idaho; Todd C. Engel, 48, of Boundary County, Idaho; Gregory P. Burleson, 52, of Phoenix, Ariz.; Joseph D. O’Shaughnessy, 43, of Cottonwood, Ariz.; and Micah L. McGuire, 31, and Jason D. Woods, 30, both of Chandler, Ariz.

Trump Campaign Official Arrested In Connection With the Bundy Ranch Standoff

Strategic De-escalation

oped: Related stories on the Bundy Ranch standoff : http://sharlaslabyrinth.blogspot.com/search?q=bundy+ranch

by Tim Brown
Nineteen Americans have been arrested so far based on trumped-up charges due to the 2014 standoff against the federal government on the Bundy Ranch in Nevada.
Federal authorities arrested 12 people in five states yesterday, bringing the total number so far to 19 defendants facing “conspiracy, assault and threats” charges in a 2014 armed standoff over grazing cattle.
Sixty-eight warrants were issued in February for Americans who protested in Nevada in 2014 and against the Bureau of Land Management in Oregon. In addition to the arrests of those who stood with the Bundy’s, including Cliven Bundy, was a campaign official for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, Jerry DeLemus. 

The Salt Lake Tribune reported:
FBI agents have arrested another son of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy — this time in Utah. 

David “Davey” Bundy was arrested just after 7 a.m. Thursday at the site of the house the Millard County contractor is building for his family just south of Delta, his wife told The Salt Lake Tribune.

Marylynn Bundy said she was alerted to the arrest by a worker who was blocked from getting to the house by law enforcement.

“I think they are just trying to get all the Bundy men locked up, so they can raid their homes,” Marylynn Bundy said.

The FBI in Utah could not immediately confirm the arrest. However, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nevada did confirm that a charging document had been filed against Bundy, but said that it was sealed. 
The Associated Press reported:
A New Hampshire man has been arrested for his role in a standoff by Nevada ranchers opposed to federal control of public lands.

BREAKING: Hillary Clinton Could Be Charged With Murder

http://rightalerts.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Vince-Foster-docs-Bill-and-Hill-320x181-300x170.jpg

After all that Hillary Clinton and her husband have done, it’s getting harder and harder to be surprised by anything they do.  This, however, is truly shocking.
Brand new evidence was just uncovered deep within the National Archives that gives tremendous weight to the theory that Clinton Aide Vincent Foster’s death in 1993 was not a suicide, as was officially reported.
An investigation surrounded with questions
For those who aren’t familiar with the story: 23 years ago Deputy White House Counsel Vincent Foster, a close friend and former law partner of Hillary Clinton, was found dead in Fort Marcy Park with a fatal gunshot wound to the head.
The official investigation concluded that it was a simple case of suicide. Open and shut. 

However, suspicions were aroused when it came out that several of Hillary Clinton’s aides were seen rummaging through Foster’s file cabinet only hours after his body was found.
Before now, these suspicions were just that: suspicions.  But with these newly uncovered documents, Hillary could soon find herself in a LOT of trouble.
A couple of citizen researchers discovered two documents that reveal another side to the story that the public hasn’t been told.
Miguel Rodriguez, the lead prosecutor in the investigation, wrote a 31-page confidential memo detailing why he felt there was not sufficient evidence to rule Foster’s death a suicide.

Highlights of the report include:
  • The existence of crime scene photographs clearly showing a wound to Foster’s neck — which of course do not match the reported cause of death (gunshot wound into the mouth).
  • The FBI showed witnesses “blurred and obscured blowups of copies of [the original] photographs.”  The FBI said that the other original photos were useless because of under-exposure.  After finding the original photos, Rodriguez sent them to an independent photo lab for examination. What he saw was shocking.  What had before looked like a blurred spot, possibly a blood stain, was clearly much more than that.
  • This neck wound was described by one of the paramedics, Richard Arthur, as a bullet hole approximately the size of a .22 caliber round.
  • Contrary to the official report, there was no evidence of any motivation on Foster’s part for suicide.  In fact, quite the opposite was true. Foster indicated to a number of individuals that he was optimistic about work-related events to come and that he was planning future family events.” 
After releasing this memo, Rodriguez says he immediately came under attack by Kenneth Starr’s staff, who was the lead investigator.  In fact, Rodriguez himself was internally investigated for the sole reason that he was questioning the official finding of the investigation.
“After uncovering this information, among other facts, my own conduct was questioned and I was internally investigated,” writes Rodriguez.
Just a couple of weeks later, Starr’s office informed Rodriguez that the grand-jury probe was being ended immediately and that his work was being placed under review.
Put in this circumstance, Rodriguez felt forced to resign from his position in the investigator’s office.  After receiving word that the grand jury investigation was being canceled, he turned in his resignation the next day.

The investigation cover up
vince-fosterYou’ve probably guessed by now that none of Rodriguez’s findings were included in the Starr report.  However, thanks to the determination and persistence of a couple of independent researchers, that’s not where it ended.
Hugh Turley and Patrick Knowlton, along with the assistance of attorney John Clarke, filed Freedom of Information requests for all of the documents produced by the attorneys investigating the case. 

These three men then wrote a 20-page appendix that the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals forced Starr to include with his official report.
Within these 20 pages are evidence of the cover-up, criminal activity by Starr’s staff, and intimidation of the grand-jury witnesses.
Other notable points from the appendix include the fact that:
  • Foster’s fingerprints do not appear on the gun at all.
  • The autopsy report does not include the X-ray of Foster’s body
  • FBI Special Agent Larry Monroe falsified information from witness accounts in order to match the official finding of the report
  • Witnesses testified that Foster’s car was not in the parking lot at the time of his death, which contradicts the reports claim that Foster drove himself to the park before committing suicide. 
Of course, the media never covered any of this.  Rodriguez even did extensive interviews with major media outlets, including The New York Times.  However, none of them ever published the story.
The Washington Post went so far as to post what they claim to be “the full text” of the Starr Report, while deliberately leaving out the appendix that tells the actual truth.

This story could be the beginning of the end for Hillary Clinton’s career.  The American public deserves to know the truth about this, but the liberal media is working overtime to keep it covered up.
Now with the power of social media, we have the power to go around the media and take this story straight to the American people.  Please share this with your friends and family.  We can’t let Hillary Rodham Clinton get away with murder.
