The Clinton Crime Syndicate
The essential facts about Hillary Clinton's "ethical lapses" — corrupt activities that should render her ineligible for office, if not eligible for prison. Just follow the money...
In 1992, a young charismatic Democrat from Arkansas, William Jefferson Clinton, defeated a stale older GOP presidential candidate, and then, over two presidential terms, established himself as the undisputed champion of the “BIG lie.”
In 2008, another young charismatic Demo, Barack Hussein Obama, defeated another stale older GOP presidential candidate, and then, over two presidential terms, took the art of big lies to a whole new level.
However, their considerable records of duplicity and deception notwithstanding, both Bill and Barack have been bested by the most shameless of all prevaricators, Hillary Rodham Clinton, who lies about everything.

Tony Perkins: Unelected Judge Ignores Military on Transgender Order
Liberals didn’t mind when former President Barack Obama forced his radical social policies on our military, but they certainly don’t want President Donald Trump rescinding them. So where do they turn? Unelected judges.
That’s what happened Monday, thanks to U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, who made the sweeping decision to keep the White House’s military transgender order from taking effect. Without the benefit of the administration’s data, military advisers, or intelligence reports, Kollar-Kotelly put herself in the position of setting a national security policy with very real consequences for our country.
As a result of her temporary injunction, the entire military will “revert to the status quo,” a dangerous environment where people like Chelsea (Bradley) Manning can serve openly, women can be forced to shower with biological men, and “pregnant males” can apply for maternity leave.

Trump calls DNC primary-rigging 'illegal,' slams 'fake' dossier
President Donald Trump gave a wide-ranging interview on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” Thursday, revealing his thoughts on this week’s terror attack in New York City and the campaign actions of the Democratic National Committee.
Mr. Trump responded to claims from former DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile alleging that the committee rigged last year’s Democratic presidential primary between Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders.
“It's illegal, number one, and it's really unfair to Bernie Sanders,” Trump said of the Vermont senator. “I’m not a Bernie Sanders fan, although I must say I got a lot of his votes when he was thrown out. Many of those people voted for me because of trade because I agreed with him on trade. … But that was, I thought that was terrible.”
Mr. Trump also responded to recent revelations that the DNC — along with the Clinton campaign — funded the now-infamous “opposition research” dossier released last January. The president called the findings “absolutely inconceivable.”
“That dossier, which is totally fake and made up it’s like a novel … is a disgrace and it should not have been allowed to be used and then I hear the kind of money they spent,” Trump said, referring to reports Democrats paid as much as $9 million on it. “I think it’s a disgrace that a thing like that can take place.”

Did Hillary’s rigging at the DNC push Biden out of the race?
The stunning revelation by longtime operative Donna Brazile that the Hillary Clinton campaign secretly took control — literal control — of the Democratic National Committee a year before Hillary became the party’s nominee is the talk of American politics.
As it should be.
Brazile’s piece in Politico describes her shock at the discovery of formal legal paperwork between the two entities when she took the reins at the DNC in August 2016. Brazile had been tapped for the job when DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz was forced to resign. Leaked e-mails had shown how Schultz had been putting her finger on the scale to help Clinton while the insurgent Bernie Sanders campaign was making a serious bid to seize the party nomination away from New York’s favorite carpetbagger.
Her account features ridiculous and unbelievable melodramatics — she says she “gasped” when she found out the truth and that she “lit a candle in my living room and put on some gospel music” to calm her before she called Bernie Sanders to deliver the awful news.
But silly though Brazile’s prose is, her account is vitally important not only for all those who want to understand how American politics works but also for the future of Brazile’s beloved party.
First, it raises key questions about what was happening as Hillary Clinton faced a time of trial in the middle of 2015. Her reputation was taking hits as her evasions and denials and untruths about what had happened to the private e-mail server she had set up illegitimately in 2009 seemed to mushroom on a daily basis.
As this was happening, she found herself with only two semi-serious challengers for the nomination — Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley.
There was another person out there — then-Vice President Joe Biden. Though grieving over the tragic loss of his son Beau, Biden was still seriously considering a late entry into the race. Indeed, it would not be until October that Biden would declare himself out of contention.

Hillary Clinton Now DEFENDING Fact That She Paid For Trump Dossier
Now I mean this – there is no end. NO end to Hillary Clinton’s excuses for her actions or non-actions. To that point, she was just on the the Daily Show with Trevor Noah, and said flat out that her and her campaign, paying for the notorious Steele dossier that looked into Donald Trump – her opponent – was totally acceptable…But of course not colluding with Russia to try and influence the 2016 election – a CLAIM that has ZERO evidence behind it.
Notice the difference between the two? One she did, and was CAUGHT, the other Trump didn’t do, and there is no evidence of at all…
Here is a bit of her giving off the excuse on the Daily Show:

RNC Chairwoman McDaniel: Every Democrat Should Denounce Latino Victory Fund Ad
Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said that every Democrat should denounce the “sickening” Latino Victory Fund ad.
Fox Business’ Lou Dobbs asked McDaniel, “That ad is one of the most sickening things. It was put out, by the way, fronted by Eva Longoria, the Latino Victory ad, do we have that ad here? … The fact of the matter is that she is fronting an ad that is just despicable, showing people trying to run down young, apparently young Hispanics, running from these folks, portrayed as the followers of Ed Gillespie. It is one of the nastiest things I’ve ever seen, Ronna.”
McDaniel responded, “It’s despicable, and the fact that Ralph Northam, the candidate for governor in Virginia refuses to denounce this, every Democrat should be denouncing this ad, to see a person in a truck with a Gillespie sticker trying to run down little children. It feeds the worst of our country in terms of hate and division, and fear, and if Democrats are going to play on this, they are looking for a bad 2018, because I think Americans will reject that type of message, and rhetoric.”

Hollywood Pedophilia Scandal EXPLODES – Top Actor Names Names…
After the whole Harvey Weinstein mess exploded, Corey Feldman decided to go public with the names of his abusers. He’s finally started naming names of alleged child molesters he claims took advantage of him and other Hollywood children years ago. Feldman found fame in hits such as ‘Stand By Me’ and ‘The Goonies’. He says that his former assistant and actor Jon Grissom was the first to take advantage of him in the 1980s. This came out as Feldman did an interview with TV host Dr. Oz on Thursday. Perhaps justice will come for Feldman after all these years.
“This guy on his My Space page and his Facebook page has got pictures of me and Corey Haim,” Feldman said during the interview. “He still taunts it and flaunts it.” For his part, Grissom denies there was any sexual misconduct whatsoever. But it should be noted that Feldman has been saying he was molested for years. Grissom posted in a YouTube comment, “I said it’s not me I’m sick and tired of saying that when no one listens. So g*******t I’m not repeating it anymore.” If he didn’t do it, why doesn’t he get a lawyer and fight the accusation? Just sayin’.

Cecil Co. Man Charged With Animal Cruelty In Death Of His Dog
(NORTH EAST, MD) – Maryland State Police have arrested a Cecil County man for animal cruelty after a trooper had to end the suffering of the dog he had stabbed.
The suspect is identified as Reginald L. Farley II, 25, of North East, Md. He is charged with two counts of animal cruelty.
Just after 11:00 p.m. on November 1, 2017, a trooper from the North East Barrack was dispatched to the 100-block of Seneca Court in North East for the report of a dog attack. When the trooper arrived, the resident reported that a neighbor’s dog had just attacked her dog. She said the neighbor had retrieved his dog and taken it back to his residence in the 100-block of Louise Court.
While the trooper was obtaining the initial information, the sound of a dog yelping very loudly was heard coming from the direction of the 100-block of Louise Court. The trooper went to that location to investigate and met the suspect at his residence. Inquiring about the dog, the trooper was told the dog had been stabbed and was now dead.
Concerned about the welfare of the dog, the trooper asked to see it and was taken to the backyard of the home. The trooper found a wounded pit bull with a large knife protruding from its neck. The dog was still alive, but was obviously gravely wounded. The dog was suffering and had little chance of survival. After obtaining permission from the suspect, who owned the dog, the trooper used his Department-issued pistol to end the dog’s suffering.
During further investigation, the trooper learned the suspect had stabbed the dog after returning home with it from the complainant’s residence. The suspect was placed under arrest and taken to the North East Barrack for processing.
The complainant’s German shepherd was injured by the pit bull. The dog is expected to survive.

‘Unbelievable’: Heart Stents Fail to Ease Chest Pain
A procedure used to relieve chest pain in hundreds of thousands of heart patients each year is useless for many of them, researchers reported on Wednesday.
Their study focused on the insertion of stents, tiny wire cages, to open blocked arteries. The devices are lifesaving when used to open arteries in patients in the throes of a heart attack.
But they are most often used in patients who have a blocked artery and chest pain that occurs, for example, walking up a hill or going up stairs. Sometimes patients get stents when they have no pain at all, just blockages.
Heart disease is still the leading killer of Americans — 790,000 people have heart attacks each year — and stenting is a mainstay treatment in virtually every hospital. More than 500,000 heart patients worldwide have stents inserted each year to relieve chest pain, according to the researchers. Other estimates are far higher.

Farmers urged to bury their underpants to improve quality of their beef
Burying a pair of underpants in a field may not seem the obvious starting point for the perfect roast, but farmers are being urged to dig deep for tastier meat.
The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) and Quality Meat Scotland (QMS) claim interring a pair of cotton smalls in a pasture can reveal vital information about soil fertility.
According to the experts, sterile and lifeless soil will keep underwear intact, but organically thriving soil will eat away at the briefs, leaving nothing but the elastic waistband.
Dig up the pants after just two months, and it is possible to judge how healthy the land is..

America Fights Back: 1 Million Cord-Cutters Freak Out Cable Industry
The only way patriotic Americans can forever destroy the likes of CNN, MSNBC, ESPN, and a whole herd of left-wing entertainment corporations is to cut the cord, meaning cancel your cable or satellite package. Thankfully, that message appears to be gaining steam; last quarter, a whopping one million patriots cut the cable cord.
As BGR reports, “Cord-cutting, or at least the speed at which people are ditching pay TV, is on track to be the biggest upset of the year.”
The reason all of this wonderful news is an “upset” is because for the longest time, some of these multinational entertainment companies were out there claiming that cord-cutting had peaked; the worst was behind them.
At the time, and for two reasons, this was patent nonsense.
1) Streaming TV is exploding. On top of Netflix, Amazon, Hulu — all three of which you can subscribe to for about one-third of the price of the average cable bill — there is an endless supply of free streaming channels that offer 24/7 news, movies, and television shows.
A couple of weeks ago, I found Pluto TV, which offers a ton of streaming live networks and works just like your cable package. Oh, and it is free.

Honor military members at Veterans Day Ceremony on Nov. 11
SALISBURY, Md. – The Wicomico County War Memorial Committee invites the community to join in honoring our military veterans at a ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 11, at 11 a.m. The ceremony will take place at the Wicomico War Veterans’ Memorial, located directly in front of the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center at 500 Glen Ave. in Salisbury.
The ceremony, which is being coordinated by the Wicomico County War Memorial Committee, includes patriotic music, prayer and remembrance to honor all veterans. Veterans Day is set aside to thank and honor living veterans who served honorably in the military, in wartime or peacetime.
In the event of inclement weather, the ceremony will be canceled.
Veterans Day, initially termed Armistice Day, was created to honor World War I veterans and celebrate the official ending of the First World War, which occurred at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, 1918. In 1954, after having been through both World War II and the Korean War, legislation was approved by the 83rd U.S. Congress to change the name from Armistice Day to Veterans Day – thereby making Nov. 11 a day in which all American veterans of wars could be honored.
The Wicomico War Veterans’ Memorial at the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center is a fitting location for this ceremony as the Civic Center is itself a living war memorial to all veterans. At the outside Wicomico War Veterans’ Memorial, flags from each service branch, along with a United States, Maryland, Wicomico County and the POW-MIA flag now proudly fly over a brick wall displaying bronze plaques with the names of Wicomico County’s fallen veterans from World War II and beyond.

Atty. Toensing: Obama Was Briefed on Russian Bribery, Kickback Operation
Although President Barack Obama apparently was briefed in 2009-2014 about a bribery and money laundering scheme involving a Russian official and Russian subsidiary involved in the transportation of uranium in the United States, the Obama administration, with the blessing of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, agreed to selling the Vancouver-based Uranium One company to Rosatom (Russia's State Atomic Energy Corporation), which gave the Russians (and President Vladimir Putin) control over 20% of U.S. uranium production.
Prior to, during, and after this sale in October 2010, at least nine investors in Uranium One gave $145 million to the Clinton Foundation. Bill Clinton personally received $500,000 for a speech sponsored by a Russian bank that supported the purchase of Uranium One.
An attorney, Victoria Toensing, who represents an undercover informant who helped the FBI in its investigation of the kickback and money laundering scheme, said her client has information on how bribery money came from Russian operatives, and how these Russians were seeking to expand their holdings in the uranium market and "peddle influence with the State Department and the Clintons."
Toensing, speaking on the Oct. 25 edition of Hannity, also said that her client "was being told by the FBI that President Obama was being briefed on this matter" as the investigation was occuring 2009-2014.
Investigative reporters John Solomon and Sara Carter, also on the Hannity program, confirmed some of Toensing's statements and stressed that the money being used to buy influence was "coming from Moscow."

Here’s How ISIS Won Over the Villagers Where the Green Berets Were Ambushed
The strategy of ISIS and al Qaeda in Africa is to offer local law and order and basic support services while building hate for the U.S. In Niger, in Tongo Tongo, it worked.
CALABAR, Nigeria—When Daouda Chikoto lived in Tongo Tongo in southwestern Niger, a grenade fired from an unknown location fell on a compound in the village, where children were playing on a Tuesday afternoon in September 2016. As he recalls, six were killed, and without knowing where the grenade came from the locals blamed it on the Americans.
The children were slaughtered just at the moment media reported that the United States was building a $100 million drone base in central Niger. Never mind that the reports said specifically the drones were for surveillance, Tongo Tongo villagers understood whatever they heard to mean that the U.S. had already established a drone station and was going to target villages close to Mali. After the September incident they concluded that America had targeted them.

Inside Hillary Clinton’s Secret Takeover of the DNC
Before I called Bernie Sanders, I lit a candle in my living room and put on some gospel music. I wanted to center myself for what I knew would be an emotional phone call.
I had promised Bernie when I took the helm of the Democratic National Committee after the convention that I would get to the bottom of whether Hillary Clinton’s team had rigged the nomination process, as a cache of emails stolen by Russian hackers and posted online had suggested. I’d had my suspicions from the moment I walked in the door of the DNC a month or so earlier, based on the leaked emails. But who knew if some of them might have been forged? I needed to have solid proof, and so did Bernie.
So I followed the money. My predecessor, Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, had not been the most active chair in fundraising at a time when President Barack Obama’s neglect had left the party in significant debt. As Hillary’s campaign gained momentum, she resolved the party’s debt and put it on a starvation diet. It had become dependent on her campaign for survival, for which she expected to wield control of its operations.
Debbie was not a good manager. She hadn’t been very interested in controlling the party—she let Clinton’s headquarters in Brooklyn do as it desired so she didn’t have to inform the party officers how bad the situation was. How much control Brooklyn had and for how long was still something I had been trying to uncover for the last few weeks.
By September 7, the day I called Bernie, I had found my proof and it broke my heart.
