Hillary Clinton Compares Republican Rivals Views on Women to Terrorists

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:00 PM PDT

Hillary Clinton today appeared to compare her GOP rivals to terrorists over their "extreme views" on women.

"Extreme views about women, we expect that from some of the terrorist groups, we expect that from people who don't want to live in the modern world, but it's a little hard to take coming from Republicans who want to be the president of the United States," she said in Cleveland.

The RNC called the remarks "a new low for her flailing campaign" and called on her to apologize for the "inflammatory rhetoric."

"I can't even fathom how she thinks she can speak for women," Stacey Dash said on "Outnumbered," remarking that sociopaths say outrageous things when they're cornered.

Andrea Tantaros called her remarks "a desperate Hail Mary" to distract from questions surrounding Clinton's private email server.

House, Senate Bills Aim to Remove Barriers to Marijuana Research

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 08:30 PM PDT

-Bipartisan, Bicameral Medical Marijuana Research Legislation Introduced in House and Senate-

WASHINGTON, DC: This week, Congressmen Andy Harris, M.D. (R-MD-01), Earl Blumenauer (D-OR-03), H. Morgan Griffith (R-VA-09), and Sam Farr (D-CA-20) will be introducing the Medical Marijuana Research Act of 2016. This bill heeds the calls of the medical research community to address the burdensome processes that currently impede legitimate medical research on marijuana. This bill is a bipartisan and bicameral solution that removes barriers inhibiting medical marijuana research. Senators Brian Schatz (D-HI), Orrin Hatch (R-UT), Chris Coons (D-DE), and Thom Tillis (R-NC) are introducing a similar bill in the Senate.

"As a physician who has conducted NIH sponsored research, I can't stress enough how critical this legislation is to the scientific community. Our drug policy was never intended to act as an impediment to conducting legitimate medical research. We need empirical scientific evidence to clearly determine whether marijuana has medicinal benefits and, if so, how it would be used most effectively. This legislation is crucial to that effort, because it removes the unnecessary administrative barriers that deter qualified researchers from rigorously studying medical marijuana," said Dr. Harris.

"Despite the fact that over 200 million Americans now have legal access to some form of medical marijuana, federal policy is blocking science. It's outrageous," said Congressman Blumenauer. "We owe it to patients and their families to allow for the research physicians need to understand marijuana's benefits and risks and determine proper use and dosage. The federal government should get out of the way to allow for this long overdue research."

"There are countless reports of marijuana's medicinal benefits, but patients, doctors, pharmacists, and policymakers must have more to rely on than anecdotal evidence," said Congressman Griffith. "Removing the barriers that prevent further research on marijuana's medicinal benefits and possible side effects is the right thing to do, plain and simple."

"This bill is about helping people. As more states pass their own medical marijuana laws, it's time for Congress to reexamine federal policy. This bill does just that by supporting research so policy decisions about the role of medical marijuana are based on science and facts instead of rhetoric," said Congressman Farr.

The Medical Marijuana Research Act of 2016 addresses two major barriers currently faced by researchers who wish to conduct legitimate medical research with marijuana, a Schedule I drug. First, it creates a new, less cumbersome registration process specifically for marijuana, reducing approval wait times, costly security measures, and additional, unnecessary layers of protocol review. Second, once researchers have been approved to conduct this research, this bill makes it easier for those researchers to obtain the marijuana they need for their studies through reforms in both production and distribution regulations. To this end, the bill also allows for the private manufacturing and distribution of marijuana solely for research purposes. Currently, the only marijuana available to be used in research legally comes from a single contract the National Institute on Drug Abuse holds with the University of Mississippi.

As Paul Nehlen Gains Traction, Paul Ryan Does Local Interviews

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 08:00 PM PDT

As House Speaker Paul Ryan's primary race has begun to heat up, Ryan has announced two local media appearances in his home state of Wisconsin over the course of the next two days.

Ryan is being challenged by Wisconsin businessman Paul Nehlen, whose campaign centers upon the idea that Ryan "betrayed" Wisconsin voters by pushing open borders immigration policies and the fast tracking of President Obama's Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement.

In a Saturday media alert, Ryan's office announced that "House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) will appear on two Wisconsin radio stations in the coming days—WBEL's The Daly Show on Sunday, June 26 at 9:00 a.m. ET/8:00 a.m. CT and WGTD's The Morning Show with Greg Berg on Monday, June 27 at 9:10 a.m. ET/8:10 a.m. CT."

The announcement and the interviews follow Nehlen's launch of a new billboard campaignthat takes aim at Ryan's two-decade long history of pushing for open borders immigration policies.

CNN’s Clinton Cash ‘Fact-Check’ Ends in Embarrassment for Cristina Alesci and Laurie Frankel

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:00 PM PDT

CNN Money's "fact-checkers" Cristina Alesci and Laurie Frankel ended up with egg on their faces on Wednesday after they rated as "false" a well-established and proven Clinton Cash fact involving Hillary Clinton's State Dept. approving the transfer of 20 percent of U.S. uranium to the Russian government, as nine investors in the deal funneled $145 million to the Clinton Foundation.

Under the guise of "fact-checking" Donald Trump's Wednesday speech, Alesci and Frankel purported to verify whether "Clinton's State Department approved the transfer of 20% of America's uranium holdings to Russia while nine investors in the deal funneled $145 million to the Clinton Foundation."

Alesci (pictured, right) and Frankel (left) rate the claim as "false" and allege "there's no hard evidence of a quid pro quo." The CNN Money "reporters" also conceded that "CNN several times has asked the Clinton Foundation to confirm whether the nine investors who benefited from the deal also contributed to the foundation, but the foundation has yet to respond."

Berlin Brewery Hosting Family Event For Fireworks Display On July 3

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 05:30 PM PDT

BERLIN — Burley Oak Brewing Co. will be hosting an all-ages family friendly event during the Town of Berlin's fireworks display on Sunday, July 3, from 6-11 p.m.

Donating $5,000 to the display, Burley Oak will be the town's largest sponsor and wanted to hold an event in conjunction to add to the fun, festive atmosphere.

"Burley is opening the parking lot so that people have somewhere to sit, drink a few beers or nonalcoholic beverages and see the fireworks easily," Burley Oak General Manager Nicky Chavis said. "We wanted to help make the display happen, because everyone in the community was so let down last year when we were told they weren't going to be happening. We didn't want that to happen again."

Chavis said there was a new sense of excitement around that part of Berlin because the town is developing a new multiple use outdoor park, Berlin Falls, across from the brewery.

Town of Berlin Economic Development Director Ivy Wells said she and Chavis worked together on the event.

Judge Jeanine NAILS what Brexit means for ordinary Americans who want to ‘take our country back’

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 05:00 PM PDT

Judge Jeanine Pirro doesn't mince words, and her Saturday night razor-sharp analysis of the U.K.'s Brexit decision was no different.

Right out of the gate on Fox News' "Justice," Judge Pirro gave viewers who might not understand the political and cultural ramifications of Britain's vote to exit the E.U. all they need to know about what it means for America and Americans.

In short – a rejection of globalism and an embracing of nations seeking first and foremost what is best for them, and the rise of politicians, like Donald Trump, who speak for us and our interests.

"What happened in England is going to happen again. Next stop, the United States. Next president, Donald J. Trump. What happened in the U.K. this week is just the beginning. The world is changing and all you elite establishment, ruling class, condescending, Washington big wigs who think you know better than ordinary Americans are out. Start packing. Your days are numbered."

Recovery Underway In West Virginia Town ‘Built To Carry On’

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 04:30 PM PDT

RAINELLE, W.Va. (AP) — When the torrential rains stopped in the tiny West Virginia town of Rainelle, the volunteers started showing up.

By Monday, a small food line at a shopping plaza had ballooned from a couple of hundred hot dogs and hamburgers to a feast for flood victims — everything from bananas to cupcakes to nachos — and more hot dogs. Behind the food line, a large room was filled halfway to the ceiling with bags of donated clothing.

As volunteers sorted the items, the extent of last Thursday's deluge came into clearer focus: Thousands of homes and businesses were damaged or destroyed and at least 23 people were killed when up to 9 inches of rain fell in a short span, causing perhaps the worst flooding the state has seen in three decades. More than 400 people were living in shelters across the state.

"We haven't stopped feeding people," volunteer Kelsi Shawver said inside the Park Center shopping plaza. "I don't even know that I'd call it volunteering. I'm just here to help."

Some of the worst destruction was in Rainelle, a town of about 1,500 people surrounded by hills, the Meadow River and several tributaries. Founded by the Rainelle brothers, Thomas and John, and once home to the largest hardwood lumber mill in the world, the town's motto is "A town built to carry on … building great things since 1906," according to its website .

Paul Ryan Doubles Down on Cutting Veteran Pensions

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 04:00 PM PDT

House Budget Committee chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) has doubled down on his move to cut pensions for military veterans in a USA Today op-ed published Sunday.

In the op-ed, Ryan opens up by highlighting the CBO estimate that the deal he cut with Senate Budget Committee chairwoman Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) would result in at least $20 billion in deficit reduction. "The Bipartisan Budget Act that Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., and I drafted will soon become law," Ryan wrote. "We think it's a small step toward fiscal discipline in Washington. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office estimates the bill will reduce the deficit over the next ten years by over $20 billion. And unlike current law, it will provide much-needed relief to our already strained defense budget."

As Breitbart News has reported, Ryan's and Murray's budget deal does not reduce the deficit. In fact, the deal raises the deficit by at least $15.5 billion because of a series of gimmicks that Ryan and Murray employed in the accounting of the deal — namely, double counting of savings like the tactic which was employed in Obamacare, and the failure to include an estimate of the interest on the borrowed money for the first couple of years of increased spending. These are only a few among a series of other misleading statementsRyan has made about the deal.

Experts Explore Ethics Of More Trials In Freddie Gray Case

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 03:30 PM PDT


Is it ethical for Baltimore's top prosecutor, who staked her reputation on charging six police officers in the death of Freddie Gray, to keep trying for a conviction? Legal experts said Friday that State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby is obligated to consider this question.

Mosby seemed devastated after the trial judge found no evidence a crime was committed when the young black man's neck was broken in the back of a police van.

The acquittal of van driver Caesar Goodson on all counts Thursday was more than just a courtroom setback, given the stakes Mosby raised last year when she announced the charges shortly after riots shook the city.

Stressing the ethical demands of her office and repeatedly invoking the civil unrest, Mosby vowed then to represent the aggrieved citizens of Baltimore who "experienced injustice at the hands of police officers."

Governor Hogan Tells WBOC He Probably Would Not Appoint Edward Rollins For Judgeship In Maryland

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 03:16 PM PDT

Better late than never and give credit where credit is due.

While it only took WBOC five days to finally dig their heels into the sand on what could be the biggest story of the year in Maryland, while WBOC, (even in this interview) never told their viewers the details behind what Rollins actually did, they somehow got an exclusive interview with the Governor.

While Salisbury News is clearly a conservative/republican minded Website, Governor Hogan met with the Liberal based WBOC with an exclusive interview. WBOC asked, would you appoint Rollins to a judgeship. Hogan replied, "probably not". 

This is a massive victory for Salisbury News, who represents WE THE PEOPLE by exposing corruption and crooked elected officials. "WBOC, Delmarva's Soft News Leader".

Maryland county asks court to dismiss flawed lawsuit against Ten Commandments monument

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 01:30 PM PDT

BALTIMORE – On Friday, Alliance Defending Freedom and Jones Day attorneys representing the Allegany County commissioners filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit that seeks to uproot a Ten Commandments monument on the county courthouse grounds that is nearly identical to one the U.S. Supreme Court upheld in 2005.

Jeffrey Davis, who resides in a neighboring county but owns property in Allegany County, filed the lawsuit to have the monument, located on the courthouse lawn, removed because "he is offended" by it, his complaint from March says.

"A Ten Commandments monument isn't unconstitutional simply because someone says he is offended by it," said ADF Senior Counsel Brett Harvey. "The Supreme Court clarified this issue when it upheld a virtually identical monument in Texas. The emotional response of an offended passerby doesn't automatically amount to a violation of the Establishment Clause."

In 1957, the Fraternal Order of Eagles donated the monument, which stands not far from a monument to George Washington. In its 2005 decision in Van Orden v. Perry, the high court upheld the constitutionality of a nearly identical monument, also donated by FOE, on the grounds of the Texas Capitol complex. The court ruled that the monument did not violate the Establishment Clause.

Windows 10 Auto Update Renders Woman’s PC Unusable

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 01:00 PM PDT

A Californian woman has successfully sued Microsoft after Windows 10 auto-installed on her computer without permission and rendered the machine unusable.

"I had never heard of Windows 10," said Teri Goldstein, whose computer was left unusable after the upgrade failed. "Nobody ever asked me if I wanted to update."

Goldstein won $10,000 in court from Microsoft after attempts by customer support to fix the issue failed, and the debacle has most likely given those opposed to the aggressive upgrade campaign a satisfied grin.

Since its debut to the public last year, everyone with a Windows 7 or 8 operating system will have noticed that Microsoft really wants you to upgrade to Windows 10. Though it's a free update, Microsoft haven't reached the number of users that they want to boast on the new system and have progressively made their upgrade notifications more aggressive.

Numerous times a day users will receive pop up notifications on their computers prompting them to upgrade to Windows 10. There are usually two options: Upgrade Now or Upgrade Later. Most users previously didn't realize that you could click the little red X in the corner to say no altogether, causing many people to sign up unwillingly, though this solution has also been reportedly patched. Clicking the X button now schedules the upgrade for you, leaving people with little option to disregard the update and confusing users who are now double-guessing every button.

"They tell you it's optional, that you have to opt in, but they just do it anyway," claimed reluctant Windows 10 user and HR assistant Jane Dunkin to the Seattle Times.

The Washington Post Picks Up Cecil County States Attorney Edward Rollins Story, Links To Salisbury News

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 01:45 PM PDT

Did a Md. prosecutor get publicly 'indecent' in front of Ocean City cops? After blogger inquires, charges filed

After the chief prosecutor of Cecil County, Md., Edward "Ellis" Rollins III (R), was arrested last Wednesday by Ocean City, Md., police for indecent exposure, the Ocean City state's attorney told the police to release his prosecutorial colleague without charges. Rollins, 60, had just been the keynote speaker at the summer conference of the Maryland State's Attorneys' Association, held at the same hotel where he was arrested.

But then a local blogger got tipped to the arrest and release, and called the Ocean City prosecutor. Then the blogger posted a story and photo Friday, allegedly of the exposed Rollins, along with many specific details of the events, which reportedly went well beyond just standing around naked. On Monday, the Worcester County State's Attorney Beau Oglesby (R) charged his prosecutorial colleague with four misdemeanors, for indecent exposure and disorderly conduct.

The Supreme Court Rules on Abortion

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 12:30 PM PDT

Washington (CNN) - In a dramatic ruling, the Supreme Court on Monday threw out a Texas abortion access law in a victory to supporters of abortion rights who argued it would have shuttered all but a handful of clinics in the state.

The 5-3 ruling is the most significant decision from the Supreme Court on abortion in two decades and could serve to deter other states from passing so-called "clinic shutdown" laws.

Justice Stephen Breyer wrote the majority opinion, which was joined in full by Justice Anthony Kennedy, considered the swing vote on the abortion issue.

"There was no significant health-related problem that the new law helped to cure," Breyer wrote. "We agree with the District Court that the surgical-center requirement, like the admitting-privileges requirement, provides few, if any, health benefits for women, poses a substantial obstacle to women seeking abortions, and constitutes an "undue burden" on their constitutional right to do so."

Paulson Cites Hillary’s Globalist Platform as Reason for Endorsement

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 12:00 PM PDT

Hank Paulson, George W. Bush's treasury secretary, who presided over both the meltdown of the U.S. economy and the subsequent bailout of his close friends and associates, has endorsed Hillary Clinton — citing his belief that she'd be more likely to enact globalist policies on trade and immigration as part of the reason for his endorsement.

Paulson also posits that Clinton would be more likely to cut Americans' medicare and social security, which Paulson cites as a top priority following the financial collapse he helped to create.

Paulson is also the former CEO of Goldman Sachs, which has given Hillary Clinton hundreds of thousands of dollars for speeches. According to Politico, Goldman Sachs rewarded Clinton with a total of $675,000 for three paid speeches.

"When Hillary Clinton spoke to Goldman Sachs executives and technology titans at a summit in Arizona in October of 2013, she spoke glowingly of the work the bank was doing raising capital and helping create jobs, according to people who saw her remarks," Politico writes. "She spent no time criticizing Goldman or Wall Street more broadly for its role in the 2008 financial crisis."

"It was pretty glowing about us," one attendee told Politico, "She sounded more like a Goldman Sachs managing director."

A Glaring Fact Emerges About 26 of the Democrats Who Participated in the Sit-In Against Gun Control

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 11:30 AM PDT

Dutch Ruppersberger of Maryland
Congressional Democrats held an unprecedented sit-in on the House floor last week in a push for a vote on two pieces of gun control legislation.

Yet an analysis conducted by the blog Heat Street found that at least 26 of the Democratic lawmakers who participated in the nearly 25-hour sit-in are actually gun owners themselves!

Based on a 2013 story in USA Today, 119 Republicans at the time were gun owners, while 46 Democrats were in that category. Heat Street was able to narrow that down to the following list.

Among the gun-toting Congressmen and Congresswomen who participated in the sit-in were:

Asians Now the Fastest-growing Racial Group in America

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 11:00 AM PDT

For decades, Latinos were far and away the fastest-growing minority group in America. Driven by both migration and higher birth rates, the are now on the verge of becoming one-fifth of the U.S. population.

But according to new Census data, Asians now represent the fastest-growing racial or ethnic group in the U.S. The nation's Asian population totaled 21 million as of July 1, 2015, up 683,000, or 3.4%, since July 1, 2014. The Latino population grew 2.2% during the same period. (In fact, Asians' growth rate surpassed that of Latinos in 2013.)

Asian population growth in the U.S. is due largely to net migration, the bureau said. Data from the Migration Policy Institute show that the number of immigrants hailing from Asia, which includes the Middle East, outnumbered those coming from Mexico 12.8 million to 11.7 million in 2014. Chinese immigrants (including Taiwanese and Hong Kong natives) constituted the largest Asian immigrant population, followed by Indians and Filipinos. Southeast Asia was the largest Asian region of origin.

Mexican Cartels Have Infiltrated U.S. Military, Federal Agencies

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 10:00 AM PDT

Veteran journalist extraordinaire Sharyl Attkisson made the shocking assertion that Mexican cartels have infiltrated the U.S. military and U.S. law enforcement agencies–- and she is correct. Her assertion is backed up by years of Breitbart Texas reports showing that some U.S. soldiers have worked for cartel efforts to smuggle humans and drugs, and that far too many in U.S. federal law enforcement agencies have fallen into working for Mexican cartels.

Attkisson's assertion was made on Breitbart News Daily to host Stephen K. Bannon. She stated on the June 24, 2016 show:

"On the other hand, I think about the military guys, and they may think, is this a victimless crime? It's really not illegal to come to this country. The two Mexicans they had been transporting last week had each been removed from the US three times before. And maybe they think, why shouldn't I make some money on the side doing something the government doesn't really mind. They don't mind if the illegal immigrants come here.

"I think they know about it. And it's people inside Border Patrol and inside the military who have long been involved in smuggling drugs, as well as smuggling humans. They're well aware of it. They don't talk about it much but it's well known inside. I'll be doing a story in the Fall about corruption inside the Border Patrol which is just out of control. There's so many agents. The cartels place people inside Border Patrol now, smugglers place people inside Border Patrol get them hired there. It's a big issue..."

As Breitbart Texas previously reported, FBI Director James Comey discussed a public corruption task force created particularly for border officials. "The color of of corruption is green," Comey said at the time.

Wicomico School System Feeds Children in Summer Food Service Program at Eight Locations

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:45 AM PDT

The Food Service Department of Wicomico County Public Schools is once again participating in the Summer Food Service Program, with funding support from the Maryland State Department of Education through the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The Summer Food Service Program of Wicomico Schools has expanded this summer to include lunch service at eight Salisbury locations, and breakfast and lunch service at four of those locations. With children not in school, the Summer Food Service Program operates in the community – at a shelter, at playgrounds, at an apartment complex, at churches, and at two community gardens.

Meals will be provided from on all weekdays except July 4. Summer food service began June 23 at some locations and June 27 at others, so all are now operating. All summer food sites will operate until Aug. 5 except Cathedral of Restoration, which will have its last service day on July 29.

Meals are available to all children without charge. Acceptance and participation requirements for the program and all activities are the same for all regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, age, religion, gender identity, disability or any other factor. There will be no discrimination in the course of the meal service.

When schools are not in session, many children do not have access to the good nutrition that school cafeterias provide during the normal school year. The Summer Food Service Program is designed specifically to fill the nutrition gap for children of low-income families when schools are not in session.

Meals are being served at the sites and times as follows:

The Christian Shelter, 334 Barclay St., Salisbury
Breakfast: 8:30-9 a.m.
Lunch: 12-12:30 p.m.

Doverdale Playground, Dover & Vaden streets (Wicomico County Recreation and Parks)
Lunch: 12-12:30 p.m.

Indian Village Playground, 916 Mineola Ave. (Wicomico County Recreation and Parks)
Lunch: 12-12:30 p.m.

Cathedral of Restoration, 607 N. Westover Drive
Breakfast: 9-9:30 a.m.

Please contact the Food Service Department of Wicomico County Public Schools at 410-677-4442 for more information.

Secretive Alphabet division aims to fix public transit in US by shifting control to Google

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:37 AM PDT

Sidewalk Labs, a secretive subsidiary of Alphabet, wants to radically overhaul public parking and transportation in American cities, emails and documents obtained by the Guardian reveal.

Its high-tech services, which it calls "new superpowers to extend access and mobility", could make it easier to drive and park in cities and create hybrid public/private transit options that rely heavily on ride-share services such as Uber. But they might also gut traditional bus services and require cities to invest heavily in Google's own technologies, experts fear.

Sidewalk is initially offering its cloud software, called Flow, to Columbus, Ohio, the winner of a recent $50m Smart City Challenge organized by the US Department of Transportation.

Using public records laws, the Guardian obtained dozens of emails and documents submitted to Challenge cities by Sidewalk Labs, detailing many technologies and proposals that have not previously been made public.

Some will be controversial, including spending transport subsidies for low-income residents on ride-sharing services such as Uber, requiring cities to upgrade to Sidewalk's mobile payments system, and modernizing public parking to boost city revenues.

Sidewalk Labs was spun out from Google last June with a mission to "improve city life for everyone". Since then, it was part of a consortium that deployed several hundred free Wi-Fi kiosks in New York and is rumoured to be designing a city from the ground up for self-driving cars. Now, it's offering Columbus a three-year demonstration project consisting of 100 Wi-Fi kiosks and free access to Flow.

Al Qaeda Urges Lone Wolf Terrorists to Target White Americans, Cites a Specific Reason

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:30 AM PDT

Al Qaeda is reportedly advising potential lone wolf terrorists to avoid attacking U.S. targets "where minorities are generally found" because the federal government will attempt to deflect responsibility away from the terror group and label attacks "hate crimes."

In the latest edition of its online magazine, Al Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula instead advises terrorists to target white Americans.

"Most of the individuals present at pulse nightclub were Latino. We recommend – And Allah knows best – that it is better to avoid targeting places and crowds where minorities are generally found in America," the guide states. "Knowingly that the federal government will be the one taking full responsibility. Therefore we advise targeting areas where the Anglo-Saxon community is generally concentrated."

EPA Faces Lawsuit Over Grants to Scientists on Clean Air Panel

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:23 AM PDT

The federal Environmental Protection Agency faces a lawsuit contending that scientists on an important clean air rules-review panel are biased because of research grants from the agency.

The Energy & Environment Legal Institute alleges that these scientists are dependent upon the EPA for funding, and therefore tend to favor stricter regulations.

"This clearly violates the law and makes a mockery of the notion of 'independent' scientific review," institute lawyer Steve Milloy told Fox News. "Not only does the EPA pay researchers to produce controversial research that advances its regulatory agenda, but the agency pays the very same researchers to review their own controversial work."

Perdue rolls out animal care initiative

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:15 AM PDT

Perdue Foods announced a "renewed focus on animal care and a continuation of its focus on premium, trusted brands that meet evolving consumer expectations. The initiative will include more activity for birds and a pilot program that will test the use of windows in chicken houses.

Chairman Jim Perdue outlined a four-part plan that he says will accelerate its progress in animal care, strengthen relationships with farmers, build trust with multiple stakeholder groups and create an animal care culture for continued improvement.

The company first confirmed its plans in a New York Times story. The New York metro area is a key market for Perdue, which pioneered the use of branding and commercials in New York and other East Coast markets.

Entitled 2016 and Beyond: Next Generation of Perdue Commitments to Animal Care, the plan was developed with input from stakeholders such as farmers, academics, and leaders of animal advocate organizations who were invited by Perdue to help shape the animal care plan that sets new industry standards, a release stated.

After Brexit, Ron Paul Asks "Can We Exit A Few Things Too?"

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:07 AM PDT

Last week's UK vote to leave the EU may have come as a shock to many, but the sentiment that led British voters to reject rule from Brussels is nothing unique. In fact it is growing sentiment worldwide. Frustration with politics as usual, with political parties that really do not differ in philosophy, with an economy that serves the one percent at the expense of the rest of society is a growing phenomenon throughout Europe and in the United States as well. The Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump phenomena are but one example of a frustrated public sensing something is very wrong with society and looking for a way out.

What is happening in the UK, in Europe, and in the US, is nothing less than a breakdown of the entire system. The EU was meant to be a customs union where post-World War II Western Europe could rebuild itself through free trade and a reduction in bureaucracy. Through corruption and political ambition it became an unelected bully government in Brussels, where the well-connected were well compensated and insulated from the votes of mere citizens.

Whatever happens in the near future – and it is certainly not assured that the vote to "Brexit" will actually end in the UK's departure from the EU – a line has been crossed that supporters of more personal liberty should celebrate. Rule from London is preferable to liberty-minded Britons than rule from Brussels. Just as Texans should prefer rule from Austin to rule from Washington. That doesn't make either option perfect, just more likely to produce more freedom.

The untold horrifying tales of Hillary’s time in the White House

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 09:00 AM PDT

Hillary Clinton was a White House monster when she was First Lady.

That's the assertion in a new book called "Crisis of Character" by Gary Byrne, which hits stores on Tuesday.

One of Hillary the Monster's favorite targets was Vince Foster, according to Byrne, a member of the Secret Service who was stationed in the White House during the Clinton administration.

Foster was the lawyer who relocated to Washington from Arkansas after his childhood pal, Bill Clinton, was elected president.

"Word circulated that (Hillary Clinton) berated (Foster) mercilessly … I knew what it was like to be yelled at by superiors, but Mrs. Clinton never hesitated to launch a tirade," wrote Byrne.

Byrne doesn't know the half of it — which I'm now going to tell you.

Donald Trump: Hillary Clinton is raising "blood money"

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 08:45 AM PDT

NEW YORK - Campaign finance reports show presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump took in just over $5.5 million last month, about a fifth as much as Hillary Clinton's $26 million.

The Trump campaign started this month with $1.3 million in the bank, less than many candidates for Congress. As donors withheld dollars, Hillary Clinton questioned his sense in a speech on Tuesday.

Trump hit back in an interview with CBS News' Norah O'Donnell.

"She will do horribly on the economy. You look at what she did as Secretary of State. What China did to this country it was pillage. They pillaged this country," Trump said.

East Coast states want to tax drivers’ travel, not their gas

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 08:30 AM PDT

A group of East Coast states wants to help overhaul the way America pays for its decaying roads, and it's starting with Monopoly money.

Delaware, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and New Hampshire are proposing pilots to figure out how they might charge motorists a fee for the miles they travel — rather than taxing their gas, as state and federal officials do today.

The I-95 Corridor Coalition, which represents transportation officials from 16 states and the District of Columbia, applied for a federal grant last month to test the idea.

Officials would stitch together the policies and technologies needed to count the miles driven by 50 recruits from each of the four states, including state legislators, transportation officials or other willing guinea pigs. They would send out "faux invoices" monthly. And they would collect the data that legislatures — and the driving public — would require to decide if the change makes sense.

Hillary Clinton 'loves' the idea of appointing Obama to Supreme Court

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 08:15 AM PDT

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton said she "loves" the idea of appointing Barack Obama to the Supreme Court if she's elected president.

At a campaign event in Iowa Tuesday, Mrs. Clinton told the crowd the next president may have to appoint up to three Supreme Court justices. When one attendee mentioned Mr. Obama as a contender, she seemed excited by the recommendation.

"Wow, what a great idea. No one has ever suggested that to me, I love that, wow," Mrs. Clinton said. "He may have a few other things to do, but I tell you, that's a great idea.

Obama's Plan to Cede Internet Control Faces Opposition in Congress

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 08:00 AM PDT

President Barack Obama's attempt to globalize control over the Internet faces pressure from Republican congressional leaders.

"I think there needs to be, at least in the short term, a ripcord to pull so that we can fall back to the way things were in case we see some of these worst-case scenarios play out," Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas, told the Washington Examiner.

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, known as ICANN, has handled oversight of the Internet since the group began operating in 1998 under a U.S. government contract. The administration's plan would transfer control of ICANN to a group of international stakeholders, according to the Voice of America.

The plan, supported by Internet companies like Google and Facebook and service providers like Verizon, must be approved by the U.S. Department of Commerce before it can go ahead.

ICANN would remain a private, not-for-profit organization under the plan, and would still be involved in governing the Internet. But oversight of its operations would be conducted by an advisory group made up of international government representatives, businesses and researchers who could vote to approve any significant changes.

Only thing transparent about Hillary is her dishonesty

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 07:45 AM PDT

Buried by last week's Brexit furor was fresh news of Hillary Clinton's efforts to cover up her abuses of power at the State Department. Two distinct Associated Press scoops show her concealing evidence.

One is just a single email that she chose not to hand over in her supposedly complete dump of her work correspondence. It's far from the first one recovered from other sources, but it's telling because she opted to delete just the one email in a long exchange with top aide Huma Abedin.

And because it's a clear acknowledgment that Clinton's reliance on her homebrew server posed risks.

Cowboy and horses surprise NJ, back up Outerbridge Crossing

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 07:30 AM PDT

Did you spot Doc?

Monday morning, New Jersey 101.5 started getting … odd calls. A cowboy, complete was a couple of horses, was traveling across the Outerbridge Crossing.

The cowboy told Josue Espinoza — who called into the Dennis and Judi show — he'd come from Montana, on his way to Brooklyn for a cowboy convention.

"He did not ride his horse from Montana," Judi said. "He didn't."

But Espinoza wasn't the only one to see him in the Perth Amboy and South Amboy over the last day or so — and he provided photographic evidence.

"Brooklyn has a lot of funky things these days. It wouldn't surprise me," Dennis said on the air Monday.

Here's even more of the emails Hillary Clinton deleted because they were 'private' but which a judge says are government related...

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 07:15 AM PDT

An additional 165 pages of emails from Hillary Clinton's time at the State Department surfaced Monday, including nearly three dozen that the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee failed to hand over last year that were sent through her private server.

The latest emails were released under court order by the State Department to the conservative legal advocacy group Judicial Watch. The batch includes 34 new emails Clinton exchanged through her private account with her deputy chief of staff, Huma Abedin. The aide, who also had a private email account on Clinton's home server, later gave her copies to the government.

The emails were not among the 55,000 pages of work-related messages that Clinton turned over to the agency in response to public records lawsuits seeking copies of her official correspondence. They include a March 2009 message where the then-secretary of state discusses how her official records would be kept.

'I have just realized I have no idea how my papers are treated at State,' Clinton wrote to Abedin and a second aide. 'Who manages both my personal and official files? ... I think we need to get on this asap to be sure we know and design the system we want.'

Police Officer: Left-Wing Extremists Started Sacramento Riot

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 07:00 AM PDT

A California law enforcement officer speaking exclusively to Breitbart News on condition of anonymity said that the group of 30 permitted demonstrators from the extremist Traditionalist Workers Party were physically attacked Sunday in Sacramento by a group of about 400 protesters organized by a group called By Any Means Necessary (BAMN).

While media reports focused on the fact that 10 people were injured after a "clash" between white supremacists and leftist radicals outside the state Capitol, the words and actions of the violent (BAMN) showed that it was a preplanned attack.

Reuters reported: "At least 10 people were injured at a rally outside the California state capitol in Sacramento on Sunday as members of a white supremacist group clashed with counter-protesters, authorities said."

Then Reuters quoted one of the left-wing leaders:

"We have a right to self defense. That is why we have to shut them down," Yvette Felarca, a counter-protester wearing a white bandage on her head, told reporters after the clash.

The attack was not "self defense," as Felarca claimed and the media repeated. In the United States, free speech — even, and especially, offensive speech — is protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution.

BAMN is not a fringe group-- it has union connections and a penchant for "direct actions." In an article from 2012 entitled "BAMN Pushes Teachers Unions Toward Radicalism," the leftist site In These Times talked about the group:

"A student-teacher alliance that operates as a joint caucus within the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and National Education Association (NEA), BAMN uses litigation and direct action to combat racial inequality throughout the public education system. Its work ranges from organizing against school closings to fighting for greater black and Hispanic representation at public universities..."

Homesick ‘Clock Boy’ Ahmed Reportedly Returning to Texas

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:53 AM PDT

Ahmed Mohamed, the teen known as "Clock Boy," may be back in Texas within days. After nine months of living in his new homeland, Qatar, he reportedly feels homesick.

Late Friday, the Dallas Morning News reported Mohamed plans to return to Texas early in the week for an extended visit. The teen's uncle, Aldean Mohamed, said: "He miss[es] Texas, and he miss[es] Irving."

Breitbart Texas reported on Ahmed Mohamed's earlier yearnings to return to the Lone Star State in December. The uncle also indicated his nephew will catch up with family in the Dallas suburb of Irving and has events lined up with some tech companies. The Dallas newspaper did not disclose any information with whom the teen will meet.

Ahmed Mohamed was the 14-year-old Irving Independent School District high school freshman detained last September for bringing to class a makeshift clock-in-a-box which school officials and police initially believed was a "hoax bomb." No charges were filed once the situation sorted itself out, but the teen served three days of suspension before his family decided to withdraw him from the school district.

A subsequent media firestorm ensued in which mainstream news outlets insisted "Islamophobia" was behind Mohamed's detainment. Breitbart Texas maintained it was the result of rigid public school zero tolerance policies and a month later, the Associated Press agreed.

Last October, Mohamed accepted a fully-funded education scholarship from the Qatar Foundation, an organization with reputed ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, over an invitation to the one of the world's most prestigious private research universities, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Civil rights leader Walter Fauntroy arrested at Dulles International Airport

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:45 AM PDT


Walter E. Fauntroy, Washington's legendary former congressional delegate, was arrested Monday morning at Dulles International Airport and jailed at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center, after returning home from a four-year sojourn in the Persian Gulf, according to authorities.

Fauntroy, who helped plan the 1963 March on Washington with his friend the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., was arrested on an outstanding warrant by Border Patrol officials while he was clearing customs, said Aleksandra Kowalski, a Loudoun County sheriff's public information officer. Fauntroy was booked at 12:30 p.m. on Monday and posted no bond. He'd just gotten off a long-haul, nonstop flight on Emirates airlines from Dubai to Dulles, said his attorney, Johnny Barnes.

In January 2012, Fauntroy left the United States after a bench warrant was issued for him to appear in Prince George's County, Md., on a charge that he wrote a bad check for $55,000 to help pay for a 2009 ball he organized for President Obama's first inauguration.

Idaho 'rape': Obama prosecutor 'silencing Americans with threats of arrest'

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:37 AM PDT

Reaction to threatening comments from President Obama's U.S. attorney in Idaho following the release of two Muslim boys accused of sexually assaulting a 5-year-old girl have been swift and severe.
 U.S. Attorney for Idaho Wendy J. Olson, 
was appointed by President Obama in 2010.

Wendy J. Olson, the U.S. attorney for Idaho, indicated in a statement Friday that Idahoans who spread "false or inflammatory information" about the alleged Muslim perpetrators may be subject to prosecution. The boys accused are ages 14, 10 and 7, and their families have been evicted from the Fawnbrook Apartments in Twin Falls, where the assault allegedly took place.

The two older boys are immigrants from Sudan and the youngest is from Iraq. They are believed to be refugees but the government has yet to say exactly how they entered the country, only that they have come "within the last two years."

The Olson statement that is drawing fire from First Amendment advocates is as follows:

"The spread of false information or inflammatory or threatening statements about the perpetrators or the crime itself reduces public safety and may violate federal law."

'F--- America!' Muslim woman makes terror threats at LAX

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:23 AM PDT

Just one day after 49 people were murdered in an Islamic terror attack at a "gay" nightclub in Orlando, Florida, a Muslim woman at Los Angeles International Airport was caught on video making terrorist threats against the U.S. and blasting homosexuals.

On June 14, video journalist Tony Vera recorded an interview with the self-professed worshiper of Allah who had just been searched and released by police outside LAX.

When Vera wished the woman a safe flight, she responded: "I'm gonna have a safe flight, but none of you is gonna have a safe sleep. Wait and see for yourself."

As the conversation continued, the woman declared, "F— America!" as she raised both of her middle fingers to the camera.

Md. juvenile lifers could be considered for minimum-security, work-release programs in policy shift

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:15 AM PDT

Maryland inmates who are serving parole-eligible life sentences for crimes they committed as juveniles may now be considered for minimum-security and pre-release facilities under a new state policy — which means they could be allowed to participate in work-release programs in the community.

Public Safety Secretary Stephen T. Moyer this month reversed rules that for two decades barred any Maryland lifer from being placed in a facility that is below medium-security.

The change comes in response to recent Supreme Court decisions on juvenile life sentences, according to a spokesman for the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services. The court has found that mandatory life-without-parole sentences for juveniles violate the Eighth Amendment prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment.

US medical schools expand training to curb painkiller abuse

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:07 AM PDT

WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) — At first, the woman tried to hide her painkiller problem. She told the doctor that she still had pain from her past pregnancy, and that she just wanted a refill on her pain medication.

After a few questions, though, she admitted that a friend had sold her some OxyContin, and that she'd stolen pills from another friend.

The interaction was all staged, with the patient played by an actor and the doctor played by a medical student last month. The exercise was part of a daylong boot camp at the University of Massachusetts Medical School designed to help physicians in training identify and fight opioid abuse.

"There's a lot at stake here. We have a public health epidemic, and it's not getting better, and the health care profession is part of the problem," said Michele Pugnaire, the medical school's senior associate dean for educational affairs.

Volkswagen agrees to $14.7 billion settlement in emissions scandal

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 06:00 AM PDT

Volkswagen will settle its emissions scandal case for $14.7 billion, the largest payout by an automaker to consumers in U.S. history, in an agreement set to be formally announced Tuesday morning, according to two people familiar with the matter.

More than $10 billion of the settlement will go to fix or buy back 475,000 Volkswagens with two-liter diesel engines that were programmed to turn off emissions measurement data outside of laboratory settings, the people said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal had not yet been announced. Those engines spewed 40 times the legal limit of harmful nitrogen oxides.

Another $2.7 billion will go into an Environmental Protection Agency trust fund for environmental remediation, and the German automaker will spend $2 billion more on American clean energy technology.

Nearly 40 state attorneys general are also set to announce resolutions with Volkswagen that could bump the total settlement valuation to more than $15 billion.

Objects Thrown At Police At Vigil For Lor Scoota; 3 Arrested

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 05:45 AM PDT


WBAL-TV 11 reports that rocks and bottles were thrown at police officers during a vigil Monday night for a popular local rapper who was fatally shot in Baltimore over the weekend.

"This was an evening filled with all types of anxieties," Baltimore Police Commissioner Kevin Davis said.

Davis emphasized that it was only a few people who acted out among hundreds who gathered to remember Tyriese "Lor Scoota" Watson.

"At this vigil, it was a largely peaceful gathering of people who cared for this young man that this city really loved," Davis said. "A couple people decided to act in their own self-interest and agitate the crowd. Rocks and bottles were thrown at police officers."

At that point, extra police were called to the scene.

Moscow's New Spy Site

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 05:30 AM PDT

The Russian government is building an electronic intelligence-gathering facility in Nicaragua as part of Moscow's efforts to increase military and intelligence activities in the Western Hemisphere.

The signals intelligence site is part of a recent deal between Moscow and Managua involving the sale of 50 T-72 Russian tanks, said defense officials familiar with reports of the arrangement.

The tank deal and spy base has raised concerns among some officials in the Pentagon and nations in the region about a military buildup under leftist Nicaraguan leader Daniel Ortega.

Disclosure of the Russia-Nicaraguan spy base comes as three U.S. officials were expelled from Nicaragua last week. The three Department of Homeland Security officials were picked up by Nicaraguan authorities, driven to the airport, and sent to the United States without any belongings.

House Democrats mistakenly release transcript confirming big payout to Clinton friend Sidney Blumenthal

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 05:15 AM PDT

The Democrats on the House Benghazi committee released their final conclusionsfrom the inquiry into attacks on Americans in that Libyan city in 2012, and in the report they say, once again, that the investigation is a politically motivated sham aimed at damaging the reputation of Hillary Clinton.

But the report, which the Democrats published as a preemptive strike before the Republican majority releases findings likely to charge ineptitude and deception by the former secretary of State, also revealed, apparently unintentionally, details about the eye-popping amount of money a close Clinton friend and advisor made in a contract with a pro-Clinton nonprofit.

Democrats released but redacted a transcript of Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal answering the committee's questions to make the point that Republicans do not want the public to know what went on during the his interrogation, during which GOP members arguably used their subpoena power to conduct political opposition research unrelated to Benghazi.

Bill and Hillary Clinton profess to have always been supporters of racial equality, but anecdotes published in a new book by his ex-lover claim otherwise.

Hillary was heard calling mentally challenged children 'f*****g ree-tards' and caught on record blurting out the terms 'stupid k**e and 'f***ing Jew b*****d', while Bill called the Reverend Jesse Jackson a 'G**damned n****r'.

Bill was also sued several times by blacks and Hispanics for violations of the 1965 Voting Rights Act.

Trooper Involved Shooting with Suspect Fatally Wounded, Frederica

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 03:32 AM PDT

Frederica - The Delaware State Police Homicide Unit is currently investigating a trooper involved shooting that occurred late Monday evening north of Frederica, which has left a 25 year old Greensboro man dead.

The following information outlines the preliminary investigation into a trooper involved shooting that occurred last night north of Frederica, Delaware.

The initial investigation has determined the incident occurred on Monday, June 27, 2016 at approximately 11:51 p.m., as deputies from the Caroline County Sheriff's office entered into Delaware in pursuit of a red 1994 Ford pickup truck, operated by a 25 year old male from Greensboro, Maryland. The pursuit was initiated by the deputies after it was revealed the pickup truck was stolen in Maryland and the suspect operating the vehicle was wanted for several burglaries in Maryland and Delaware. The suspect continued throughout western Kent County driving in a reckless manner running vehicles off the roadway. At this point Troopers became involved in the pursuit in the area of Felton. As the pursuit continued eastbound on SR 12 the suspect was seen displaying a handgun in his left hand. The pursuit continued into the town of Frederica where the suspect drove eastbound in the westbound lane and then turned northbound onto north Frederica Road. The suspect then drove northbound in the southbound lane of SR 1 into oncoming traffic. The suspect vehicle came to a stop on the southbound shoulder of SR 1 south of Barrett's Chapel Road. Troopers and deputies initiated a felony traffic stop on the suspect vehicle as they observed him holding a handgun.

A trooper directed verbal commands toward the suspect to drop the weapon. The suspect ignored numerous verbal commands and then began waving the gun in the direction of the troopers and deputies. The trooper then discharged his divisionally issued patrol rifle striking the suspect who was still seated in the driver's seat of the pickup truck.

Celebrate July Fourth in Ocean City, Free Fireworks and Concerts in Two Locations

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 03:30 AM PDT

OCEAN CITY, MD – : If you're looking for fireworks with a view, then look no further than the Fourth of July celebration in Ocean City. With your family and friends, beach chairs and blankets, watch the fireworks sparkle over the beautiful water in one of two great locations offering concerts and fireworks displays for free.

At Northside Park, 125th Street and the bay, the traditional show kicks off with The Janitors at 8 p.m. The spectacular fireworks display may be viewed from anywhere in the park at 9:30 p.m. with the National Anthem leading the show. "Northside Park is a spectacular place for families' to watch the colorful displays light up the evening sky and lagoon," said Mayor Rick Meehan. "We encourage spectators to get there early to claim their spot to watch the fireworks."

On the south end of town, guests can head to Ocean City's famous Boardwalk with its bright lights, assortment of food, family fun and more fantastic fireworks. The Reagan Years will start off the evening's modern show with a performance on the Caroline Street Stage at 8 p.m. and fireworks filling the sky beginning at 9:30 p.m. "The July 4th Celebration in Ocean City is a unique opportunity to watch fireworks sparkle over the ocean," Meehan continued. "Our stage on Caroline Street allows visitors to bring beach chairs or blankets and claim a spot on the sand where they can enjoy the live performance and capture a special and patriotic fireworks display set to a modern mix of music."

Normal parking operations for the Inlet Parking Lot will also be changed for the holiday, Monday, July 4, with a $50 flat-fee charge for all day parking. The fee, which is good for one-entry, will allow visitors to come as early as 5:30 a.m. and stay as late as midnight, without being charged an hourly parking rate. In addition, a late entry fee will be permitted based on availability at 3 p.m. for a fee of $30, also allowing one-entry only. Once the lot fills, visitors will be encouraged to use neighboring parking lots, including Worcester Street, Somerset Street, Dorchester Street, North Division Street, 4th Street and the West Ocean City Park & Ride. The normal "ticketed" parking operations will return at 12 a.m. on July 5.

Parking is extremely limited at both locations. It is recommended that visitors take the bus. Bus service is $3 ride all day. The West Ocean City Park & Ride on Route 50 is just west of the Route 50 Bridge and offers free parking and $3 ride-all-day shuttle service to downtown. Also, area boaters should note that on the evening of July 4th, the span of the Route 50 Bridge will remain closed to marine traffic at the usually scheduled 10:25 p.m. and 10:55 p.m. opening times. The Route 50 Bridge will reopen for boaters at 11:25 p.m. on the evening of July 4th.

"The Fourth of July holiday is a great opportunity for residents and visitors to stay and play in Ocean City," Meehan finished. "With a beautiful setting and two great fireworks events, we hope our guests will come early and stay late to celebrate America's birthday at the beach."

Conservative Congressman's Hillary Investigation Bombshell

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 03:00 AM PDT

Republican California Rep. Darrell Issa said that there is enough evidence to indict Hillary Clinton for mishandling national security information on her private email server.

"There is more than enough for an indictment," Issa, the former House Oversight Committee chairman, told Breitbart News Saturday on Sirius/XM Patriot Channel 125. Issa explained:

The statute about classified material holds you responsible not to transmit in an unsecured environment or to a person not cleared. It holds you accountable not to do that. Not based on whether there's the word 'Secret' all over it, but based on the presumption that you would recognize that classified material. She transmitted things like — I don't want to disclose anything — like a mayor in Afghanistan who was working with us, and if that material becomes available to the wrong people, she gets killed. You don't have to ask whether that's classified. As an army lieutenant years ago, I knew that would be classified because it goes to sources and methods.

Gary Kaltbaum: Globalists Using ‘Scare Tactics’ on Markets, Will 'Lie, Cheat, and Steal to Turn Back the Clock' on Brexit

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 02:00 AM PDT

Fox News financial analystGary Kaltbaum found the vicious elitist backlash against Brexit voters unsurprising, during his appearance on Breitbart News Daily with SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon on Friday morning.

"Voters are always idiots when they disagree with the glitterati, as they say," Kaltbaum observed.

He predicted markets would "shake and shudder," and "there's going to be a lot of scare tactics, there's going to be a lot of yelling and screaming from people that are on the wrong side of this, and probably the markets are going to be on the defensive for a while."

"But I've got news for you — the United Kingdom will go back to work, do their thing," he continued. "They're a huge trading partner of the EU, that's going to continue. The people that wanted to keep this together, and are trying to keep the EU together, are going to lie, cheat, steal to try to turn back the clock, but I doubt it works at this point."

"I'm already hearing about France, Italy, Netherlands people calling for their own referendum, so this is going to get interesting in the next few weeks," Kaltbaum said.

Governor’s Office for Children Announces $15.1 Million in Grant Awards to Local Management Boards

Posted: 28 Jun 2016 01:00 AM PDT

Grants Will Fund Programs Aimed at Strengthening Children and Families

ANNAPOLIS, MD – Maryland's Children's Cabinet, through the Governor's Office for Children, this week announced $15.1 million in statewide grant awards to Maryland's Local Management Boards. Located in all 23 counties and Baltimore City, the Local Management Boards, or LMBs, bring together resources at the local level to strengthen services to children, youth, and families. These non-competitive grants will fund more than 100 child- and family-focused programs in Fiscal Year 2017 (June 2016-June 2017).

Through an extensive planning process that involved input from hundreds of community members in every jurisdiction, the LMBs identified strategies that will address critical needs for children, youth, and families in their jurisdictions. By implementing programs and promising strategies that achieve measurable results, the LMBs position Maryland as a leader in developing solutions to issues that have a far-reaching impact for children and families in states and communities across the country.

The programs and strategies proposed by LMBs for FY17 include interventions for some of Maryland's most vulnerable populations: families and children impacted by caregiver incarceration; disconnected youth between the ages of 16 and 24 who are neither working nor attending school; children and youth who are food-insecure; and youth who are experiencing homelessness. These interventions represent new pathways to opportunities and a push for systemic change that will further Governor Hogan's vision of ensuring an economically secure Maryland for all.

For example, Somerset County plans to implement an anti-hunger initiative to reduce local food deserts, form partnerships to support local agricultural initiatives, and encourage families and children to grow and cook their own food. The program will include nutrition and cooking classes, development of community gardens, fishing instruction, and other activities.

"I tasked my Children's Cabinet to focus specifically on working to ensure Maryland's struggling families are on a pathway to economic stability and opportunity," said Governor Hogan. "From implementing anti-hunger initiatives and providing job readiness programs and parenting workshops, these grants maximize state resources and enable our LMBs to assist thousands of families throughout the state."

"The Governor's Office for Children recognizes and appreciates the unique role of the Local Management Boards in understanding local concerns and developing programs for children, youth, and families," said Arlene Lee, executive director of the Governor's Office for Children. "The LMBs are the 'boots on the ground' in our communities, and we are grateful to be able to fund so many promising programs in the coming year."
