| Posted: 21 Aug 2016 12:09 PM PDT  Over the last week, Donald Trump expanded his upper campaign management while sadly, taking the resignation of his trusted advisor, Paul Manafort. This happening on the day when Trump decided to make an impromptu visit to Louisiana, an area that's been ravaged by flooding due to rain.  Clearly, this is the biggest catastrophe for the state since Katrina in 2005. However, even with newspapers begging for him to visit and remembering his damning remarks regarding former President Bush's fly over, it seems Obama was too busy vacationing in Martha's Vineyard, hobnobbing with the rich and famous while playing golf, to be worried about doing his 'presidential duty' and Hillary Clinton took the weekend to 'rest' after her big week on the campaign trail. Friday morning, along with his VP nominee, Governor Mike Pence, Trump arrived in Louisiana with very little fanfare. In fact, many in the media as well as Clinton spewed he did it for publicity reasons, even though he didn't bring his press core with him and requested no press to be present during much of his visit. Democrat Louisiana governor, John Bel Edwards, stated there would be no photo op moments with him should Trump visit and he was demonstratively absent during the entire visit. However, in his statement, Bel Edwards's office did say he was more than happy to take Trump's money. (What else is new?) Trump and Pence didn't arrive empty-handed.  THIS is the Donald Trump New Yorkers know, respect and love. The altruistic man of the people who is willing to help when and wherever he can without the media hype. After they unloaded the truck, Trump and Pence toured many homes as well as a local church and school. The damage was extensive and many lost everything. What few cameras were present were forbidden to go with him as he met privately with many families one on one. And during the tour, both were solemn as they surveyed the damage.  Since his visit, media still chastises him for his trip, claiming he did it for publicity even there was zero photo ops and pictures of the visit are scarce. Clinton has yet to make an appearance even though we now know her rest includes attending some ritzy fundraiser tonight in Nantucket, hosted by Cher.  For Hillary Clinton, her actions only further alienate her from voters as many are re-thinking their vote for her. Like the reputation she's earned in instances like Haiti, it seems she's more concerned about winning an election rather than actual human suffering. As for Trump, many are saying he became the next President of the United States last Friday! I'd have to say, I completely concur! UPDATE: Just confirmed, the truckload of loot and truck were paid for by Trump personally and was in no way connected to his campaign or GOP funding.  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Gold Alert Issued for Missing Seaford Woman Posted: 21 Aug 2016 12:10 PM PDT

| WICOMICO'S COUNTY'S LIBERAL SOCIALIST AGENDA Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  With the help and support of two left wing liberal organizations, THE GREATER SALISBURY COMMITTEE and THE SALISBURY CHAMBER OF COMMERICE, a charter review committee was initiated and a referendum ballot was forwarded to change the WICOMICO COUNTY charter to a Executive form of government. As with most ballot questions, unless there is a lot of opposition, it passed. This greatly increased the cost of government to the citizens of WICOMICO COUNTY beyond most citizens' expectations. The first election held under this new form of government produced the County's first County Executive, RICHARD M POLLITT. Pollitt's first task at hand was to rid the County of the evil Revenue Cap that had been imposed by the taxpayers in the early 1990's. Then the local liberal appointed BOARD OF EDUCATION pushed the County Council to almost double the property taxes. Fortunately in 2006, and 2010 the taxpayers were at least wise enough to elect somewhat of an conservative County Council to hold off any attempt of a reversal without a referendum, which never happened. After 8 years of trying to suck the last dollar out of the taxpayers, POLLITT was replaced by what was supposed to be a conservative savior, ROBERT CULVER. CULVER entered the fray guns blazing, firing employees, taking away County cars and even took away employee's paid birthdays leave. Good start, one would say! But the problem is CULVER found that while he had the support of the working class, he didn't gain any favor with the local liberals. You see the people that elected CULVER work everyday for a living so they are not hanging out at the Government Office Building, but those lobbying for more liberal ideas do. The ones that supported POLLITT, i.e. the CHAMBER MEMBERS, the G.S.C. and the liberal fraction of the County Council, were now even more angry at CULVER'S cost cutting actions. So whats a guy to do? First you look back at how POLLITT covered his ass for eight years. CULVER had fired the public information officer so he makes up a couple of new titles and hires two to replace one. Next you have to find one of the most liberal ideas around to satisfy these folks that are not speaking to you. AHA! How about FREE COLLEGE TUITION at WOR WIC? That should do it! Take a page out of the liberal lefts' playbook! After all, look at all the people that are fawning over BERNIE SANDERS and HILLARY CLINTON. Suddenly, CULVER see's the path to being a popular guy! Once this socialist idea takes shape, your next issue becomes how you can pay for this program. You've promised not to raise taxes THIS YEAR, so in order to keep your promise, you need to make some cuts (some big cuts) because, after all, this is a costly program! The $250,000+ price tag is just a start. With two other local colleges who will want to be included, it is sure to balloon. And in reality, why should it be limited to only WOR WIC students? How to find the money to fund free tuition? OK, start with cutting retirees insurance benefits. There is only about two hundred or so and they don't represent a large group and that will only sacrifice a few votes. Maybe next year we can cut some more employee benefits as this program has been stated to cost over $600,000 next year. One would think that this idea would not have made it past the County Council since the voters elected a COUNTY COUNCIL with six Republicans and they surely would vote down such nonsense. However, it seems several on the Council have taken a big bite out of the same apple that CULVER has been chewing on. With a six to two vote and one absent, the resolution to offer free tuition passed quicker than a hot knife through butter! With the FREE TUITION resolution passing, there's one more step in this process this year. That is to transfer the money to the COMMUNITY FOUNDATION so it can be passed on to WOR WIC. Are you surprised at this? Perhaps WICOMICO COUNTY is not capable of handling it's own money. I predict that while this year's program cost will be $250,000 plus, next year it will grow close to $750,000, and by the third year S.U. and U.M.E.S. will be included growing the cost even more. If so, the cost to WICOMICO COUNTY taxpayers will balloon into a multi million dollar program A budget buster if ever there was one! With WICOMICO COUNTY over FIFTY TWO MILLION DOLLARS BEHIND IN INFRASTRUCTURE REPAIRS, who is setting our spending priorities, and more importantly, WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? Either way, it will be the taxpaying citizens of WICOMICO COUNTY who pay the price.  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Should Baltimore honor Michael Phelps with statue? Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  If it is the end of his swimming career, Phelps will retire having won a record 28 Olympic medals, 23 of which were gold. Many in Baltimore wonder how should be recognized locally for his accomplishments. Some have suggested a statue that would go alongside similar ones for Johnny Unitas, Ray Lewis and Brooks Robinson to name a few. "I think that's a great idea," one Baltimore resident said. "He's the best all-around athlete there is." More  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| New Info on Media's War on Trump Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  As you all may have noticed, the Media has been waging war on Donald Trump. It's getting to the point that borders an insane obsession with picking a part everything he does and says, spinning it into something 'dark' and dangerous. Over the last week, some answers have come to light that may shed some reasons as to why the Media, particularly the Conservative pundits' disdain toward Trump. The findings are going to shock you! I have attached a video that verifies this information. And yes, it's been vetted through several sources within many agencies - not just my own but many other fellow writers using their own sources. All point to this being accurate even though the video maker is careful to assert he's reporting what he's been told by his Pentagon source. While we all know about Clinton Aide, Huma Abiden's videos taken during private meetings between herself, Hillary Clinton and several foreign (and hostile to US) agents that Wikileaks was going to break last Sunday (August 6), there has been a storm of restraining orders sent to RT (Russian Times) from our State Department to block these videos from surfacing as they go towards proving treason on Clinton's lot. However, given that RT is not subject to US laws (or law enforcement) with the exception of their America office, these will only hold for so long. RT's involvement stems from last Sunday's interview with famed hacker and Wikileaks founder, Julian Assange who is in exile at the Ecuador embassy in London for the last five years.
This is based on the premise that should Trump get elected, he will reduce aid to the Middle East including Israel - an assumption that is FALSE! On the contrary, Trump is stating he wants to reduce or end aid to countries harboring and supporting terrorists. This is a huge difference than what was presented by Clinton. The disturbing thing is, it appears Netanyahu has taken the bait. Many Jewish journalists - Bill Kristol, Ben Shapiro, Jamie Weinstein to name a few - have all been touting the NeverTrump banner in spite of Trump's popularity with voters. This week, Trump revealed his very conservative economic plan devised by known-conservative economists like Stephen Moore. It's as close to Reagan as anyone has gotten in a long, long time! Additionally, earlier in the Spring, he released his highly conservative judges list of those he would proffer for appointment to the Supreme Court. Therefore, the hysterical NeverTrumpers appear nonsensical - that is, until now! It's more than a mere axe to grind! It's more than anything personality based. This goes much deeper into the collusion we've seen so rampant with Clinton and her camp! Watch the video, while boring, listen to its contents multiple times. It's a lot to take in but as a responsible voter, it's up to you to inform yourselves!  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Today's Survey Question 8-17-16 Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT   | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  Baltimore, MD (August 15, 2016) -The Natalie M. LaPrade Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission ("MMCC") today announced the names of the 15 Growers and 15 Processors who have been awarded Stage One license pre-approvals. The Commission's actions mark a giant step forward for the medical cannabis program in Maryland. Dr. Paul W. Davies, Chairman of the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission stated, "I'm excited that we have a great number of outstanding companies willing to help sick people in Maryland." The potential licensees comprise a diverse group of principals, executives and corporate officers including Maryland residents associated with long-time established Maryland businesses, entrepreneurs, women and minority-operated enterprises. Seven of the Processors are affiliated with Growers who received Stage One pre-approvals. The Commissioners' selections for Grower entities and locations are:
The Processor entities and locations are:
The Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission's Executive Director, Patrick Jameson stated, "Now that the Commissioners have made their selections, the real work begins for these companies. We will implement a rigorous Stage Two background and financial due diligence process for these entities prior to issuing a license. A pre-approval is not a license. I truly look forward to facilitating this nascent state wide industry and working with local, city, and county jurisdictions and with the principals of these organizations." The Commissioners will vote for licensure once compliance with the regulatory requirements is complete. The Growers will cultivate a variety of strains ranging in cannabinoid content from a low to high spectrum of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Cannabidiol (CBD), and the Processors will be manufacturing a wide variety of cannabis-infused products containing high and low CBD and THC extracts and in a variety of modes of administration. These pharmaceutical grade products will include oral forms such as oils, pills, capsules, tinctures; sublingual sprays; inhaled products and topical forms such as ointments, salves, and transdermal patches. MMCC also commissioned the Towson University, Regional Economic Studies Institute "RESI" to coordinate the review of the Dispensary Applications by subject matter experts and to utilize the same process as for the Grower and Processor applications such as compiling the scores and application rankings. The Commissioners will review and vote on the Dispensaries (two per Senatorial district and potentially 15 additional for Growers who wish to be vertically integrated) with medicine tentatively becoming available by the summer of 2017. Dr. Davies continued, "While we are aware there is a public interest in the rankings of the Grower and Processor applications, the rankings were merely used as an organizational tool. The Commission will list the entities in alphabetical order. All of the chosen business entities have an equal opportunity to complete the licensing process. At this stage, I am very happy with the Commissioners' choices." Maryland received 145 grower applications, 124 processor applications and 811 dispensary license applications. Again, MMCC commissioned RESI to contract with third-party subject matter experts from around the United States to evaluate the applications using a double-blinded process. RESI assigned unique identifying numbers to each application prior to evaluation and review by subject matter experts and Commissioners. Application content comprised text and supporting documents redacted of all identifying information such as individual or entity applicant names and locations. Once evaluated and scored by the subject matter experts, RESI compiled the scores and ranked the applications. The scored and ranked redacted Grower and Processor applications were then provided to Commissioners for review and final selection. The 15 Grower and Processor potential licensees will continue on to Stage Two of the approval process, which will include extensive financial due diligence and background investigations by the MMCC of all those named in the original application and any other principals. Each entity that was issued a pre-approval will have 365 days from date of notification to complete all necessary steps to obtain a formal license and to request final inspection by the Commission. These steps include completing regulatory requirements, raising capital, acquiring real estate, securing local zoning approvals, construction of facilities, installation of equipment, and the hiring and training of staff. All applicants, including those who did not receive pre-approvals, were notified as to the status of their application by email and U.S. mail today. The Natalie M. LaPrade Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission develops policies, procedures and regulations to implement programs that ensure medical cannabis is available to qualifying patients in a safe and effective manner. The Commission oversees all licensing, registration, inspection and testing measures pertaining to Maryland's medical cannabis program and provides relevant program information to patients, physicians, growers, dispensers, processors, testing laboratories, caregivers and the general public.  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The following statement is by an anonymous individual Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT "I believe that Hillary Clinton will win the election in November. Then, sometime between November and January, Hillary will be indicted. The IRS is now investigating the Clinton Foundation and the whole e-mail thing isn't over yet. Once under indictment she won't be able to assume the Office of the President in January. Tim Kaine, who will not actually be the Vice President because neither he nor Hillary have been inaugurated, cannot assume the Presidency. The Speaker of the House can't move up to it because there is already a sitting President and Vice President. So President Obama, in an Executive Order citing 'emergency situation,' gives himself another four years in office is the only way possible." Obama has been planning this for a while now, knowing he has enough on Hillary to indict her. Had the Attorney General indicted her based on evidence from the FBI, the plan wouldn't have worked because the DNC would have quickly come up with another candidate. If you think about it, it's not that outrageous. Many people on the left, including the President, want Obama to stay another four years. The law prohibits him from being re-elected so the only 2 ways he can do it is either by declaring martial law and suspending the election (which would be a very negative thing for the country) or to declare himself still President because the elected candidate cannot assume her duties. The latter makes more sense and is actually more feasible. And since it's never been done before, it would set a precedent that would be difficult to challenge. Of course, if Trump wins the election none of this is going to happen. But what if he is correct? Four more years of Obama and a mostly useless Republican House and Senate would give Obama the time he needs to continue destroying the country to fit his stated goals."  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Not to mention the amount of tax dollars being wasted in this picture is OUTRAGEOUS. And lastly I'm not sure if this is a promotional photo shoot or what the nature of this was BUT it's a gross misrepresentation of the "diversity" in the dept, that female is NOT a TAC officer and in my opinion is disrespecting ever officer that's put in the time ,commitment and sacrifice to be a part of such an elite unit, not only is Salisbury but across the country.

| Ocean City seeks another eye in sky Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  Earlier this month, the city applied for a $90,320 grant from the Governor's Office of Crime Control & Prevention to pay for the replacement of the temporary plate reader at the West Ocean City entrance. The reader scans thousands of vehicle's plates in a short time and enters the information into national and state databases that include wanted persons, missing persons, gang members and national sex offender lists. If a plate is included in the database, the system can provide the vehicle's location and direction of travel. Digital images can also include the vehicle's make and model, the driver and passengers, and distinguishing features of the vehicle.

| Critics: Governor’s promise to heal Baltimore rings hollow Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  The conflict highlights the differences between Democratic lawmakers who want expanded services for their core supporters in Maryland's largest city and a GOP governor committed to more fiscal restraint. Baltimore's rioting was triggered by the April 2015 death of Freddie Gray, a black man who died of injuries in police custody. Hogan's response last year was swift: He called in the National Guard to help restore order and sent a strong message of support to local leaders. But this month Hogan refused to release an $80 million funding package authorized by state lawmakers, including $1 million for the Safe Streets program. The violence intervention initiative hires former felons and ex-gang members to mediate potentially violent conflicts. Without the $1 million, Safe Streets, which operates five sites in Baltimore's most dangerous and crime-ridden neighborhoods, could be forced to close.

| $6.5 TRILLION MISSING FROM DEFENSE DEPARTMENT Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  At ArmstrongEconomics, the blog reported, "Once again, the office of inspector general has come up with a huge hole in the Department of Defense with a missing $6.5 trillion." The day before 9/11, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld admitted $2.3 trillion was missing from the Defense Department budget, noted the blog. That figure has now grown to $6.5 trillion and counting. To get a handle on its magnitude, a pile of $100 bills in that amount would be enough to make every man, woman and child in the states of Colorado, Wyoming and South Dakota an instant millionaire. The report, "Army General Fund Adjustments Not Adequately Documented or Supported," started out with the goal of finding out whether the changes in the Army General Fund data during Fiscal Year 2015 to financial statements were "adequately documented and supported."

| Maryland pension system falls far short of earnings target Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT BALTIMORE (AP) — Maryland's public pension system missed its annual target for returns by more than 6 percentage points in the past fiscal year. Citing a news release from the State Retirement and Pension System, The Washington Post (http://wapo.st/2blgqlF ) reports that the $45.5 billion investment portfolio earned 1.16 percent after fees for the fiscal year that ended June 30. That return is well below the fund's annual objective of 7.55 percent. It is the second consecutive year that the actively managed retirement program fell short of its goal. It grew 2.68 percent during the 2015 fiscal year. More  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Business owner says he will move 150-person office out of Baltimore if minimum wage goes to $15 Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  CMD Outsourcing Solutions Inc.'s customer service call center, which serves higher education institutions nationwide, has been in Baltimore City for 17 years. The company's current office is along East Pratt Street near the Inner Harbor. But as the City Council gets ready to vote Monday on a bill to raise the minimum wage by 2022, CMD CEO Russ Causey said the effects of the legislation could force him to move his business. "I love the city. That's why I started my business here," he said. "This [bill] would move our rates up to a level that we would have no choice but to leave." This contrasts with the views of some local business owners who have said it doesn't make sense to leave the city because even with increased costs, the location provides access to the highest concentration of potential customers and potential income.

The ship is one of a new fleet of replenishment oilers that will be built in San Diego. Milk's career as a Navy officer, however, ended with an "other than honorable" discharge, due to allegations of fraternization with enlisted personnel. Some argue that Milk was forced out of the military because he was gay. A defense official said Tuesday that Milk accepted the other than honorable discharge to avoid possible disciplinary action.

| Black Lives Matter Target Graceland: Plan to 'Shut Down' Elvis Week Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT The Coalition of Concerned Citizens, a radical group that includes Black Lives Matter protesters, has set its sights on Elvis territory, with a plan to "Shut Down Graceland" on Monday. While the target might seem unusual, the timing is not. The annual Elvis Week has been taking place since Wednesday and is slated to continue until Tuesday. The local TV station Fox 13 reports: Protest leaders say the mass demonstration is planned for 6:00pm Monday. They said they specifically chose Graceland because it is Elvis week and they know it will raise awareness. Leaders say they also chose Graceland because "it demonstrates one of Memphis's most common forms of financial inequality and because the site has ties to … the death of unarmed teen Darrius Stewart." "We feel like we still haven't been answered," said Frank Gottie, a community leader. "They're givin' us the runaround." More  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  During the weekend, troopers statewide made more than 4,700 traffic stops and issued more than 3,100 citations and 3,000 warnings. They were involved in sobriety checkpoints and special enforcement initiatives in various counties. Troopers arrested 71 impaired drivers statewide. Despite those efforts, troopers were called to respond to 15 crashes that involved suspected impaired drivers. Those crashes included three each in Prince George's and Howard counties, two each in Charles and Wicomico counties, and one each in Caroline, Harford, Worcester, St. Mary's and Cecil counties. Although there were multiple injuries, no fatalities occurred in these crashes. The State Police Impaired Driving Reduction Effort, or SPIDRE Team, was working DUI enforcement in Prince George's County, where they arrested seven impaired drivers over two days. The team leader, 1/Sgt. David Ryan, was patrolling Rt. 193 about 3:30 a.m. Saturday, when his patrol vehicle was struck in the right front by a driver changing lanes. The 19-year-old driver had a learner's permit and was arrested for driving impaired. Neither he nor 1/Sgt. Ryan was injured. This is the second time 1/Sgt. Ryan has been struck by an impaired driver while working DUI enforcement with the SPIDRE Team. In Howard County, a motorcyclist attempted to drive between two vehicles while traveling east on I-70 at Rt. 29 shortly before noon yesterday. He lost control and was ejected from his motorcycle. The investigation indicates he was driving impaired. When a friend of his, also driving a motorcycle, stopped at the scene of the crash, he was arrested by troopers for operating under the influence. In Wicomico County, troopers were called to Mt. Hermon Road and Forest Grove Road in Parsonsburg Friday afternoon, for a single vehicle crash involving a moped. The moped operator apparently lost control of the vehicle and fell off. He was subsequently charged with DUI and related traffic charges. State troopers work daily to identify and remove impaired drivers from Maryland roads. So far this year, Maryland state troopers have made more than 338,200 traffic stops and almost 4,400 arrests for impaired driving. Please do not drink and drive.  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| ‘Gender Unicorn’ for Kids Lets Them Color in Their ‘Gender Identity’ Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  A transgender advocacy group is providing schools with the cartoon of a purple unicorn who appears to be thinking about the LGBT rainbow, causing outrage from parents. One district in North Carolina was met with protests after it used the "Gender Unicorn" in its faculty training. The group, Trans Student Educational Resources, says the Gender Unicorn is an upgrade from the "Genderbread Person," another cartoon graphic about gender identity targeting children. The organization offers definitions for "gender identity," "gender expression/presentation," "sex assigned at birth," "sexually attracted to," and "romantically attracted to" on its informational page on the Gender Unicorn. Gender identity is defined as "one's internal sense of being male, female, neither of these, both, or another gender(s)." More here  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Milwaukee Riots After Police Shoot Armed Black Suspect; Police Cars Burned, Officer Injured Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  The officer-involved shooting occurred at around 3:30 PM and involved two MPD officers who had stopped a car near the 3200 block of N. 44th Street. The two suspects inside fled on foot with the officers giving chase. In short order one of the suspects pointed a semi-automatic pistol at the officers and was killed, according to CBS. In the hours after the shooting groups of residents in the mostly African-American neighborhood gathered near the crime scene and soon began taunting police officers investigating the incident. The taunting continued for some time and then turned violent, with police cars being swarmed and pelted with bricks and rocks as a small-scale riot broke out.

| Where One Investigation Ends, Another Begins... Posted: 21 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT  Things are not always what they appear to be... Over this last week, the Media made much to do about nothing as they made yet another attempt to smear Donald Trump when he tried to energize the Second Amendment voters to vote in November. It was all over the news as I'm sure many of you heard the four-day ordeal. The whole insidious nonsense even packed a knockout punch when the United States Secret Service reveal CNN blatantly fabricated a reprimand they supposedly gave Trump for his remarks. Besides their ritual demonizing Trump, what was the story Clinton's media buddies were really hiding? Back in July, FBI Director, James Comey, gave a damning statement of Hillary Clinton's character (and ability) over her private email server while Secretary of State, deeming her as 'excessive careless' with classified information. However, the punchline was he didn't recommend charges to be filed against her for her gross negligence. Coming on the heels of the clandestine meeting between former president Bill Clinton and Attorney General Loretta Lynch, the timing of this conclusion was suspect at best - not to mention, he prosecuted Clinton before issuing the final blow.
A few weeks back, I reviewed the book by Peter Schweizer, Clinton Cash and a week later, the documentary came out under the same title. In a nutshell, the author laid out some of the Clinton's payola deals with various foreign countries - Bill got paid for making speeches while Hillary granted government access and large sums of money were funneled through the Foundation as 'donations' from many companies and international government interests. The whole government access for sale was blown open as the email server scandal appeared to wrap up. Or so it seemed... Last week, while the MSM was obsessing over Donald Trump, a war was waging between the DOJ and the FBI which resulted in Lynch, denying Comey's request to investigate the Clinton Foundation further. While many sources confirm this investigation has been very much alive for a long time, it was as not overt as the email server probe. It actually began after the agency discovered a server with Foundation emails and documents in the oddest place -- the embassy in Benghazi after the terrorist attack which killed four Americans on September 11, 2012.
With the DOJ's failure to approve the investigation, thinking he was in the clear - as Bill Clinton and Chelsea were also at the heart of this investigation - he truculently ostracized Comey during a speech this last week, stating the FBI was full of bull. Well, safe to say, he probably regrets making such a provocative statement now... The big news hit the street Friday though many media outlets are still not reporting it due to it's damning ramifications to their favorite gal pal; however, you can find it on some news organizations like The Daily Caller. Much to Bill's chagrin, the FBI found another way to perhaps finally skin this criminal cat. Not only is the FBI investigation an ongoing one, it is now moved to three local agencies with the US Attorney's office in full cooperation and decision-making power to decide whether or not to indict Hillary, Bill and Chelsea Clinton for selling government access through both the Bill Clinton and Chelsea Clinton Foundations.
As one source put it, "...unlike Lynch, we won't be seeing Bharara meeting with Bill Clinton on any tarmacs to 'discuss' golf and grandkids. Not only is he tough, he's well-protected as he is known for prosecuting the worst of the worst in both criminal and white collar crime." It seems Comey still has powerful influence in his old stomping grounds as he was working for this same New York office when he indicted and prosecuted Martha Stewart back in 2003 - long before becoming the most powerful law enforcement officer in our government.
The source did add that one thing is for sure in this situation, intent will not even be a part of the conversation as the Clinton's 'intent' is so blatant and obvious that even a third-grader could point it out without any problem. Did he know this when he made his statements and testimony before Congress last month? Guess we'll just have to wait for Director Comey's memoirs to be published but until then, we have front row seats to the biggest bust of the most corrupt crime syndicates in our Federal government's history. Richard M. Nixon and Watergate have now been completely vindicated - it's just a shame he didn't live to see it! Do you still wonder why it's been over 259 days since Hillary Clinton held a press conference? If she has a good criminal defense lawyer, it's no wonder! And for those of you who love to defend the Clintons, claiming they a sophisticated organized crime family that will escape prosecution: Remember, they said the same thing about Capone, John Gotti and a host of others who have gone to prison for their crimes. As anyone whose ever studied law will tell you, repeat offenders increase their chances of being caught and adjudicated -- why? Because they get sloppy! At this point, the Clintons' pride has made them very cocky and sloppy!  |
