Swastikas Appear in George Washington University Dorm




[From article]
In February, several swastikas were painted on the walls inside a GWU dorm which houses a group of sororities and fraternities.
A few weeks later, another swastika ended up on a bulletin board belonging to a Jewish fraternity. That incident, though, proved to be a hoax.
Regardless, the incidents surprised and dismayed many, prompting the Student Association Senate to act.
“Moving forward, this resolution would encourage the university to take a more active approach not only to prevent instances, but also make sure we can increase the safety of our students that live in residence halls,” Sen. Thomas Falcigno, CCAS-U, said.
After the first incident, the school added a security camera in the lobby of International House, but the Student Senate wants more.

Mexican Drug Cartels Use Road Blocks for Kidnappings In Chicago




[From article]
The practice bears a striking similarity to a practice already established by both the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas who set up roadblocks around Mexican border cities to keep their enemies out or to rob unsuspecting motorists.
Cartel roadblocks are so common in the border state of Tamaulipas, as Breitbart Texaspreviously reported, that Mexican Federal Police officers actually set up convoys to escort tourists from southern cities in that state to the border cities of Matamoros and Reynosa.
“It’s already known that Mexican cartels control a significant amount of illegal drug trade in Chicago, but for local criminals to start using tactics that cartels in Mexico have been using for years, that is truly disturbing,”
[. . .]
While the Gulf Cartel is known for having its operations along the Texas-Mexico border, in the past its tentacles have reached Chicago in order to carry out kidnappings and executions tied to missing drug loads,

Missing Children Swindle




[From article]
Senese tricked his first victim, identified only as “V-1” in court papers, into shelling out more than $30,000 — as well as other monthly payments ranging from $3,000 to $5,000 — after the parent’s child was abducted in New York in November 2013 and taken to India, the criminal complaint said.
He promised he could reunite “V-1” with the child in two weeks with the help of an “unidentified retired federal judge, unidentified teams of international lawyers” and several members of the elite Army squad.
But instead, Senese allegedly led the victim on a wild goose chase for nine months, texting them fake updates on his rescue efforts while pretending to be in India.

[From article]
Autopsies revealed no unusual trauma on a couple and their 10-year-old granddaughter who died in a house fire hours before a man suspected of raping the girl was to go on trial, a forensic pathologist said Tuesday.
All three died quickly of smoke inhalation, and there was no sign of trauma other than burns and soot from the Monday blaze in Youngstown, said Dr. Joseph Ohr of the Mahoning County coroner’s office.
Ohr said he won’t rule on their manner of death, such as whether the deaths were accidental, until he receives reports from arson investigators and homicide detectives.
[. . .]
Chief Fire Investigator Alvin Ware said two of the victims were deaf. Ohr tentatively identified the victims as 63-year-old William Schmidt, 61-year-old Judith Schmidt and a granddaughter who lived with them.

Hillary Clinton Addicted to Deception




Why does he focus on Hillary Clinton? Not enough room for Obama's list?

[From article]
From dodging sniper fire to being dead broke, she says what’s most convenient for her in the moment, and lets her flunkies clean up the mess later.
Her word is not her bond. In contrast to the dictum of the late Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, she believes she’s entitled to her own facts as well as her own opinion.
The revelation by the AP that she used at least two electronic devices, neither of them connected to a government ­email account, means she will have to come up a with a new reason why she was entitled to do emails her way.
Whatever she comes up with, it won’t wash. It’s obvious that her aim was to avoid having Congress and the White House know what she didn’t want them to know.
[. . .]
The department had requested all official ­emails be preserved, but accepted her claim that she deleted 30,000 personal ones before turning over printed versions of about 30,000 others. She and her lawyer say everybody will have to take her word for what was in those that were deleted.
She also says the server “will remain private” and the lawyer says that all the ­emails were permanently deleted and that the server is now “clean.”

The cyber activist group Anonymous has issued a chilling video statement threatening Israel with an 'electronic Holocaust' in response to what it calls 'crimes in the Palestinian territories'.
The clip is edited in the style of a television news report and features a masked and suited individual sitting behind a desk and reading from a pre-prepared script as he declares plans for a massive cyber attack on April 7 - one week before Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Declaring Palestinians youths a 'symbol of freedom', Anonymous says it will take down 'servers, government websites, Israeli military websites, and Israeli institutions' in a move that will 'erase [Israel] from cyberspace in our electronic Holocaust'.

NH Politicians Lament Parental Oppositon To Common Core




[From article]
This video is going viral and it SHOULD. It’s bad enough that parents are frustrated by the Common Core aligned curriculum that is destroying any chance at their child’s future in a math field. But now we have a New Hampshire State Representative bothered by parents who contact him and exercise their voice in this democratic process.
[. . .]
There was overwhelming support by parents in favor of SB101 which would prohibit the state from requiring implementation of common core standards. Why? Because parents are fed up with these new academic standards in math and English.
This petition already has almost 1500 signatures calling for the end to Common Core in NH.
Where are all of those parents who want Common Core? No where to be found.
[. . .]
We can also look at past comments from the U.S. Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan who also patronized moms who opposed Common Core as, “….white suburban moms who — all of a sudden — their child isn’t as brilliant as they thought they were and their school isn’t quite as good as they thought they were…”
We’ve got news for the elitists who think they know better than parents, we do know what we are talking about and we still don’t like Common Core.

Fat Cat Union Boss Paid $500,000 for Ten Months Work




[From article]
Former United Food and Commercial Workers executive vice president Bill McDonough was paid $544,137 last year despite leaving the union in October.
Working as the collective bargaining director at UFCW headquarters in Washington, D.C., McDonough received a gross salary of $378,606 plus $3,000 in “allowances,” $88,851 for official business and $73,680 in other disbursements, based on the union’s 2014 report to the U.S. Department of Labor.
UFCW classified 80 percent of McDonough’s time as representational activity, which means his pay came both from member dues and mandatory “agency fees” UFCW takes from nonmembers in states without right-to-work laws.
[. . .]
Mandatory union fees taken from nonmembers cannot legally be spent on political activity, but UFCW agency fee payers were forced to subsidize activist groups the union paid for “representational” activities.
[. . .]
Meanwhile, Catalist — a data consulting firm accused of illegal campaign coordination with hundreds of Democratic campaigns — received $706,600 in UFCW political expenditures.
According to The Center for Responsive Politics, UFCW spent over $10 million on political campaign contributions and independent campaign expenditures during the 2014 election cycle.
“We have long known that Big Labor is one of the largest political actors out there, so there is no real surprise in seeing where the money goes or how much is in the system,” Greg Lawson, a policy analyst for Ohio’s free-market Buckeye Institute for Public Policy Solutions, told Watchdog via email.
“It is unfortunate that all too much political rhetoric seems to point the finger only at ‘Big Business’ while ignoring Big Labor,” Lawson added.
[. . .]
The union demands government create “economic justice” by forcing wealthy corporate executives to pay low-skill workers a $15 minimum wage — but UFCW bosses’ salaries come directly from workers’ paychecks.
To the extent UFCW has increased pay and benefits for workers at grocery stores and retailers nationwide, higher costs are often passed on to wealthy and low-income customers alike.

Atlantic City, NJ May Petition For Bankruptcy




[From article]
Atlantic City owes creditors at least $845 million: $270 million in outstanding bonded debt, $350 million in pension debt (per Moody’s), and $225 million in other “off balance sheet” obligations, mostly related to reimbursements to casinos after overcharging them on property tax bills.
[. . .]
Federal law requires that a municipality must have entered into “good faith” negotiations with its creditors prior to filing for bankruptcy. Those negotiations have not yet begun in earnest. The city’s counterparties will be the state government, on behalf of itself and the city’s retirees, casinos, bondholders, and bond insurance companies.
[. . .]
Atlantic City does not suffer from Detroit-level incompetence or corruption. None of the recent reports that have taken stock of the city’s challenges have ventured major criticisms of basic operations or municipal services. Clearly, Mayor Don Guardian is no Kwame Kilpatrick.
[. . .]
The more details that emerge about its budget, balance sheet, and municipal operations, the more Atlantic City’s crisis seems like the isolated cases of fiscal distress than the structural cases such as Detroit. And in that respect, bankruptcy may actually make more sense for Atlantic City than it did for Detroit.

After White Boston, MA Policeman Shot in Face, Harvard Law Student Baits Black Police Supervisor Using Profanity




[From article]
In one video, officers who are trying to expand the crime scene perimeter and move back a small, but vocal, crowd are met with a barrage of epithets.
“Hands up … hands up, don’t shoot!” one woman keeps yelling. Meanwhile, the cop holding the crime scene tape keeps asking the crowd to “please move back, please move back,” as several people shout, “What the (expletive) are you doing? You gonna shoot me, too?”


TENSE SCENE: Tension erupts between residents and police Friday night in Roxbury after a shootout left a suspect dead and a police officer in critical condition.

There were no guns. No helmets. No night sticks. No mace. No dogs. Just a few cops who absorbed torrents of insults as they asked people to “please move back,” politely but firmly. And, yes, even as the crowd howled, they moved back.
It was painfully, if not laughably, obvious that the folks who decided to raise a ruckus at Humboldt Avenue on Friday night were playing to the cellphone cameras.
The amazing thing about the video was that it only emphasized the remarkable restraint of the police in the face of the empty posturing of folks who were trying with all their might to turn the incident into something it wasn’t.
ut it’s the second video that is even more shameful — and at the same time more revealing — than the first.
It shows Superintendent-in-Chief William Gross, second in command of the BPD and proud son of Dorchester, walking right up to police tape to engage the loudmouths with far more respect and class than they deserved.
But more than that, Willie Gross’ willingness to talk with people who only wanted to scream for the cameras, only served to reveal the glaring difference between how far Boston’s police force has come, as opposed to how far the police force in Ferguson, Mo., has to go.
“Respectfully,” was the word Willie Gross kept repeating over and over as he tried to explain what had happened on Humboldt, how one of his officers had been shot without provocation in what amounted to an assassination attempt.



He endured racial epithets by people of the same race, one of whom kept saying he was at Harvard Law School.
Willie Gross just smiled, kept his composure and revealed them for the fools they were.

Edward Kennedy Institute Opens In Boston



U.S. Senator Edward M. Kennedy

[From article]
In September 1972, in the Oval Office, Henry Kissinger told President Nixon a story about Cristina Ford, Henry Ford’s wife, being stalked by Teddy in Manhattan. Finally Mrs. Ford locked herself in her suite at the Carlyle Hotel, where FBI reports in 1965 said Teddy had been engaging in wild “sex parties,” like his older brothers before him, with Marilyn Monroe.
Kissinger: “(He) practically beat her door down … She finally told him, ‘What if the newspapers get this?’ He said, ‘No newspapers are going to print anything about me. I’ve got that covered.’ ”
Nixon: “Jesus Christ! That’s pretty arrogant.”
What I take from that story is Ted’s framed mementos will not include the famous FBI report from Dec. 28, 1961, which described how during his visit to Santiago, Chile, he “made arrangements to ‘rent’ a brothel … for the night.”

A 22-year-old woman who works for a top modeling agency told cops that movie producer Harvey Weinstein molested her during a meeting in Tribeca over the weekend, sources said Monday.
The woman told police that the famed producer grabbed her breasts and touched her thigh around 6 p.m. Friday at the Tribeca Film Center, sources said.
“He asked if they [her breasts] were real,” a police source said of the woman’s complaint.
The woman said that Weinstein grabbed her breast, and she said “no,” to make him stop, the source said. Afterward, she walked into the 1st Precinct to file a complaint.

Man In Women's Clothes Shot Dead at NSA




[From article]
An NSA officer gunned down the unidentified pair after they crashed the Ford Escape into the entrance and then opened fire just before 9 am, according to NBC ’s Washington affiliate .
Federal officials said that both men were wearing women’s clothes and wigs at the time of the assault. Drugs and at least one gun were found inside the SUV, which the pair had stolen.
One of the gate-crashers died on the scene and the other was rushed to Baltimore’s Shock Trauma unit with potentially fatal injuries, authorities said.
An NSA officer was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
[. . .]
While there is currently no explanation of what motivated the attack, the FBI says the shooting is not believed to be related to terrorism. The incident was being treated as a “local criminal matter,” according to federal officials.

Can propaganda be a lie? If "responsible" media, R.W. (winner of Neiman Foundation award) Apple's term, publishes it, can it be a lie? When a politically correct "victim" makes a statement can it be a lie? If the goal is "justice" (undefined), or "fairness" (undefined), or fighting "racism" (undefined), does it matter if it is a lie? Heh, heh.

Iran Maintains Its Goal of Destroying Israel




[From article]
The commander of the Basij militia of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said that “erasing Israel off the map” is “nonnegotiable,” according to an Israel Radio report Tuesday
Militia chief Mohammad Reza Naqdi also threatened Saudi Arabia, saying that the offensive it is leading in Yemen “will have a fate like the fate of Saddam Hussein.”
[. . .]
In 2014, Naqdi said Iran was stepping up efforts to arm West Bank Palestinians for battle against Israel, adding the move would lead to Israel’s annihilation, Iran’s Fars news agency reported.
“Arming the West Bank has started and weapons will be supplied to the people of this region,” Naqdi said.

Report Charges Facebook With Intense Surveillance Contrary to Notice




[From article]
A new report claims that Facebook secretly installs tracking cookies on users’ computers, allowing them to follow users around the internet even after they’ve left the website, deleted their account and requested to be no longer followed.
Academic researchers said that the report showed that the company was breaking European law with its tracking policies. The law requires that users are told if their computers are receiving cookies except for specific circumstances.
[. . .]
But Facebook’s tracking policy allows it to track users if they have simply been to a page on the company’s domain, even if they weren’t logged in. That includes pages for brands or events, which users can see whether or not they have an account.

Harassing Citizens, While Ignoring Illegal Aliens




This is typical of misguided White House policies. Law abiding American citizens are stopped, questioned, harassed and jailed for being in their own country. At the same time illegal aliens who entered the country contrary to law are not being stopped, not being questioned, and if they are found in violation of law are let free. It is obvious that criminals run the US government. Has a foreign power taken control to expel and imprison citizens? 

[From article]
Some Americans are refusing to answer questions at Border Patrol checkpoints set up many miles away from U.S. borders, believing the questions posed by Border Patrol agents are unacceptable for law abiding citizens.
Many of these protestors are also using their dashboard cameras to record their encounters with agents, some of whom have resorted to breaking windows, dragging motorists from their vehicles and detaining them, according to The Houston Chronicle.
The newspaper reports “these travelers are among the latest to join what appears to be an informal alliance of people, possibly into the hundreds, recording their encounters at Border Patrol checkpoints,” and that “some of the travelers appear to be making a stand for what they say are their rights and contend that the government, which has long drawn support for doing whatever is needed to protect the nation's borders, is going too far.”
These checkpoints are not at international points of entry to the U.S. nor necessarily within close proximity to the U.S. border, but farther inland, within a 100-mile distance of U.S. borders and coasts. It has been estimated that between 34 and 170 such checkpoints exist inland from the U.S.-Mexico border.
Dash-cam footage showed agents smashing the car window of Navy veteran Thomas Sauer, 26, then forcibly yanking him from his car after he chose to “opt out” of discussing his citizenship. The agents read him his rights, including that he had the “right to remain silent,” which Sauer found ironic.
“I did it because I don't agree with the premise of questioning citizens without suspicion,” Sauer told the Chronicle. “Those type of interactions should be left at the border.”
