Skullduggery: Did Hillary Clinton Supporters Get Bernie Sanders Supporters' FaceBook Pages Taken Down by Porn-Bombing Them?
I'm not sure to be outraged or just shrug this off as the cyber world's equivalent of pulling down an opponent's yard-signs.
But the porn angle does make this seem a bit more seemly than routine vandalism. As does the resort to the Crybully Culture tactics -- create a hoax, then whine to the authorities that you #SafeSpace is being #ButtHurt. This site suggests, without proving, that this might have been the work of internet trolls hired by one of David Brock's endless slimey tentacles. I don't know about that -- people look for some Prime Mover behind these things but the fact is that political passions are high enough, and people like being vandals and creeps enough, that most of this sort of stuff is initiated by Self-Radicalized Leftist Lone Wolves. Who, like other Self-Radicalized Lone Wolves, act in concert and imitate each other to achieve the same ends.Comments

Whitey Bulger's Girlfriend Faces More Time for Her Silence
By JENNIFER LEVITZ
The Wall Street Journal
BOSTON The girlfriend of convicted gangster James Whitey Bulger could get more prison time for refusing to say who else might have helped the former kingpin during his 16 years on the lam.
Catherine Greig, midway through an eight year prison term for harboring Mr. Bulger, is due in federal court here Thursday for sentencing. In February, Ms. Greig pleaded guilty to a criminal contempt charge after refusing to testify to a grand jury about whether others enabled Mr. Bulger.

There's evidence (anecdotal as yet) that this will happen. That anywhere from 10-30% of Berniebots would stay home, and 5-10% would actually cross the aisle to vote for the other outsider.

Bait and Switch means you promise one thing, and deliver another.
In this case, Trump - on camera - promised to personally hand pick the instructors for the university bearing his name. After being sued, he was found unable to name or recognize any of the instructors.
This sounds...familiar.
Trump makes a promise and then later ignores it, while taking your money or vote with him.

Speaking of the Commiefornia GOP, there was a breathless headline over at VaguelyPinkishState which read,
"HUGE: Ted Cruz Earns FOUR Critical California Endorsements!"
Well, okay, who are those?
Turns out to be four sad sacks who are former chairs of the CA GOP from during the years in which it has steadily withered away to nothing. I really only easily recognized two of the names. I would bet that the typical voter here would not know any one of those names if given a pop quiz.
But one of them was... wait for it... the Secretary of Energy in Ronald Reagan's second term! Stop the presses! Extra, extra, read all about it!
Anyone else here remember Reagan's second term as being any sort of a triumph of conservative policy on the domestic front, including energy? Any sweeping measures that took place? What? What's that you say? The second term was instead just a vague, mushy prelude to Bushism?
Well, that pretty much sums up the Republican Party's officialdom in CA over the last quarter-century. Vague, mushy, and ultimately ineffectual at stopping the inexorable rise of the Democratic sewer overflow. To where Commiefornia is now effectively a one-party state.

Midgets are entirely perfectly proportional to the human form. They are shaped exactly like full-size adults, except everything is proportionally smaller. That includes genitals-- midget penises are very small.
Dwarves, on the other hand, are not proportional -- different body parts are different sizes. The legs and arms and torsos are very short, but their heads and hands -- and yes, penises -- are full-size, and sometimes even larger than full-size. So a naked dwarf often appears to have an extremely large penis, especially when seen in the context of his very small body.
This is actually true, but is kinds taboo, so no one ever speaks of it.
Also, midgets have essentially ceased existing, because midgetism can be treated in childhood with pituitary treatments, and now almost all would-have-been midgets grow to nearly full-size. Dwarfism, however, is genetic, and cannot be treated, so we still have lots of big-dicked dwarves.

All the dashboard indicators are saying that current quarter GDP will likely come in at a fraction of one percent. Stall speed.
That would be bad enough as it is. But reflect further that all official GDP figures after late 2013 have been artificially plumped up by the Obama administration, to make growth look larger than it actually is. Basically they added 2% to whatever the old number would have said.
So reckoned according to the classic econometrics which were used when Obama came in, we're essentially in a recession right now.
Meanwhile, the floundering Republican Party has been successfully forced by the left into a back-footed debate about identity politics nonsense, trannies in public lavatories and the like, instead of about jobs and the economy.

Meanwhile, the floundering Republican Party has been successfully forced by the left into a back-footed debate about identity politics nonsense, trannies in public lavatories and the like, instead of about jobs and the economy.
Exactly... They always manage to tangle republicans up in Social rather than economic debate...

I watched Jeff Dunham's show on his world tour. He played Achmed the Dead Terrorist to a theater full of Arabs dressed in robes. In Malaya (I think) he was specifically ordered by the Ministry of Crazy-Ass Culture to not use Achmed and to not even mention his name. So he played Achmed with a beret and named him Jacque the Dead Terrorist and had jokes about how hot it always is in France what with the sand and Pyramids and everything. The guy's funny and he's got balls.

This comes as no surprise to those people who thought fracking chemicals would have to leach a helluva long way up from the average fracking depth of 6,000-10,000 feet to affect drinking water, which usually sits between the surface and 500 feet below (at extreme depths of 1,200 feet).
But science and fact isn't important when the object of massive effort is scaring the shit out of people.

The result? There's no evidence -- zero, zilch, nada -- that fracking contaminates drinking water. Researchers hoped to keep these findings secret.
Why would a public research university boasting a top-100 geology program deliberately hide its work? Because, as lead researcher Amy Townsend-Small explained, "our funders, the groups that had given us funding in the past, were a little disappointed in our results. They feel that fracking is scary and so they were hoping our data could point to a reason to ban it."

My read on him is he's a "center-right" guy that's willing to tackle what I believe to be the most important issue facing our nation.
Even if he's a dyed in the wool liberal on social issues, I can easily overlook it if he does 25% of what he promises on border security.

UC has said that it does plan to publish the study in a scientific journal and it should absolutely make good on its word. However, in the meantime, it's worth noting that after 191 water samples, the first-ever stable isotope analysis, and most importantly, baseline testing, the 31 page master's thesis explains that there was "no evidence for natural gas contamination from shale oil and gas mining in any of the sampled groundwater wells of our study." The results were so overwhelming, that the study clearly reinforced these findings at least five times.

We identified several Clinton affiliated persons, including a Texas National Delegate and a campaign worker, who were some who filed the take-down requests. However, it appears they were just the willing rubes nudged to respond to the false flag operation.
As one who deals with cyber counterintelligence in the day job and has familiarity in dealing with sock puppets, as well as having limited familiarity with what David Brock had been building primarily to take on Jeb Bush (the presumed opponent for Hillary back in 2013 when they spun up the ops), there are lots of indications that this was relatively well coordinated but the coordinators have kept their distance. The false flag ops very much seem to be vigilante driven (e.g. the "Bros for Hillary").
Anyway, we've outed a few folks and have more digging deeper to see if we can pin anything on Brock's psyops. I'd ask you all to keep an open mind toward the Bernie friends. Yes, there are ideological differences and a lot are very naive about what they ask, but we share a common hatred for the corrupt neoliberal scum that the Clintons and Bushes represent. Brock is really warming up the cannons for you all, be it Cruz or Trump (or Kasich...hahaha... no. That's never happening). Please encourage your campaigns to get their counterintel folks together. Hillary's ops are pretty damn good and Bernie was a naive fool in not understanding their need.
It's going to be an unprecedentedly nasty fall. Hillary's terrified now. I don't think Brock's psyops was supposed to get engaged in the primary but she's so damn weak, running out of the easy money, and her negatives keep going down, I suspect they gave him the green light when Bernie refused to back out after the NY primary loss. This is an advantage to the R's - Brock has revealed his machine, giving the Rs a chance to get up to speed and be prepared to take down that dirtbag.

POTUS defends pushing Britain to stay in EU - but he snubbed Netanyahu for opposing the Iran Deal.
The POTUS defended his remarks by saying that democratic nations should be free to speak their minds openly - yet Obama himself attacked Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu for rejecting the Iran deal during his visit to the US, and indeed snubbed Netanyahu during that visit, in March 2015.

If Trump and Hillary go in there only apart a few points, I could see him taking it.
Supporting Trump is radioactive, sort of the reverse of the Bradley effect where more people are supporting him than they are letting on.
I don't like his chances, but I can't dismiss them entirely.

The controversial tactic consists of firing a warning missile above or near an intended target, to give residents time to flee before the real strike.
The Israeli military used such "roof knocks" in the 2014 Operation Protective Edge in Gaza, but a United Nations commission found in 2015 that the tactic was not effective, because it often caused confusion and did not give residents enough time to escape.
The United States used the tactic in an April 5 operation in the Iraqi city of Mosul. One woman who initially did leave the targeted building but then ran back inside was killed, a US defense official said.

This is true. I'm even okay with some of Trump's other legal issues in the past: businessmen sometimes have hinky deals go bad and have to act a little scummy.
But the Dems won't be explaining Trump U. like that, or explaining civil vs. criminal.
The reason it freaks me out is that if you watch the actual Trump video, its exactly like his act now: off the cuff, winging it, making promises.
Then...he doesn't actually fulfill the promises. He didn't hand pick any of the teachers. That suggests to me he will say anything to get what he wants, and then not fulfill on the back end.

You can keep pretending this is nothing but you can also expect to hear Hillary beat this to death anytime Trump calls her crooked.
Posted by: JackStraw
Look, we can also pretend that Cruz not disclosing Goldman Sachs was bankrolling his campaign is not an issue. Or that his wife works there and was promoted after he won his Senate seat.
The idea that we run the "boy scout" and that means we win has been tried before with Mitt Romney.
If they don't have anything, they'll make it up.

Sure, Hilary, I, being sued in civil court. I didn't get a rapist off on a technicality. Nor did I support a serial abuser of women for decades. Nor did I enrich myself by using my political office. Nor did I leave my countrymen to die. Nor did I jeopardize national security with an unsecured server to avoid accountability.
I'm sure there's more, but you get the idea. Someone here said it, spit on Trump and he'll dump a bucket of piss on your head.

There's this woman at the church I'm serving as interim at. She's not a really older person although she may be old enough to be the daughter of some of them, (In her late 40s) but she's been going there for years and she's been with the ladies working on dinners or helping out with the interfaith mission dinners or serving on trustees, etc She singlehandedly got a lady they all love out of her house and into assisted living, so when she advocates on missions (and she's really big on them) they listen , It's the journeying with them and not scolding them that I think does the trick.
You'll be great at that!

Oops, I went to Harvard Law and I didn't fill out the form right that I got $500k loan from Goldman Sachs for my campaign. Those federal disclosure forms are so tricky.

gone out. And not that the whole water heater has gone kaput."
Depending on the age of the heater, there may be other complexities.
Gas water heaters used to be simple critters with a basic standing pilot.
Then the government involved itself in designing them, with mandates for "safety" and "the environment" which have made the gas system a lot more detailed and finicky and prone to break down.
As with so many other ordinary daily artifacts which the government has decided to improve, you have to wonder what the fully burdened environmental cost is when you factor in early disposal of said items after the government-mandated frippery expensively breaks down.

Of course, Grammie, but I trust that God has been with you and will continue to be.
We had service of anointing and healing on Sunday and someones prayer was that she be healed of anything that keeps here from being a beacon of love for the Holy Spirit. I thought that was lovely. i think you have a lot of love, grammie, so as I'm sure you're praying-not that they get their act together, I mean although you may want that too;^), but that you hope that they are drawn even close to Christ and that there be a warm feeling with all the brothers and sisters in Christ there.
There are probably prayers online about becoming the new wife of a pastor or write your own! :^)

Parole Board denies Daniel Lucas' clemency request
The state Board of Pardons and Paroles today denied condemned murderer Daniel Anthony Lucas' plea for clemency.
Unless the courts stop his scheduled execution, Lucas will be put to death tomorrow evening for the 1998 murders of a Middle Georgia father and his children.
The board spent about 3 1/2 hours with Lucas' lawyers this morning. In the afternoon, the local prosecutors, detectives and the widow of the man he murdered spoke to the five Parole Board members, taking about 1 1/2 hours. The former district attorney, Fred Bright, and the widow and mother of the children murdered, Gerri Ann Moss, were on the telephone with the board while about 10 others were in the room when they made their pleas that Lucas be executed at 7 p.m. tomorrow.

Vote Cruz!
Constitution dot org has Vattel's "The Laws of Nations".
Scroll down to I guess it's section 212 to read about Natural Born Citizen.
Then go to wiki's and search Vattel's laws of nations. Scroll down to read about Ben Franklin being sent 3 copies before our constitution was written and what he said in his thank you reply.
Or you can go on thinking Cruz reveres our constitution.
He's just another globalist neo-con.

The Orthodox (Christian) church has a special name for the Presbytera or wife of the Priest. She is called "Matushka" or mother. It's a unique relationship.

In my #390 comment, I linked to both Trump's and Cruz's lists of delegates who are supporting them. In my district, Trump has three and Cruz has one. I got a robocall from the Trump campaign and a flyer from the Cruz campaign naming the same ones as in my link.
Then there are three other delegates who were endorsed by the Republican Party. They did not appear on either Trump's or Curz's lists. I got various flyers and robocalls for them. I expect those delegates to win due to their greater name recognition.
There are a further 17 delegates who are not elected, but consist of state party bigwigs. Ironically, they are required (by law or party rules, I forget which) to support the popular vote winner.
