Emerging from a meeting on the border crisis with one of his harshest critics, President Obama said he and Gov. Rick Perry, R-Texas, don’t have a major disagreement about how to handle the problem, the challenge is Congress.

“There’s nothing the governor indicated that he’d like to see that I have a philosophical objection to,” the president told reporters. “The problem here is not a major disagreement around the actions that could be helpful in dealing with the problem. The challenge is: is Congress prepared to act to put the resources in place to get this done.”   Continue reading “President Obama Urges Congress to Pass Immigration Bills”

Battered wife media syndrome returned to the spotlight this week when 38 journalism groups, led by the Society of Professional Journalists, complained to the Obama White House about numerous offenses that were summed up as the “politically-driven suppression of news.”

[A]s a result, they wrote, Obama only has himself to blame for the current cynicism of his administration. “You need look no further than your own administration for a major source of that frustration – politically driven suppression of news and information about federal agencies. We call on you to take a stand to stop the spin and let the sunshine in,” wrote David Cuillier, president of SPJ.    Continue reading “Journalist Groups Protest Obama’s ‘Suppression of the News’”

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee released emails Wednesday from disgraced former Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Director of Exempt Organizations Lois Lerner wherein she advised her colleagues that “We need to be cautious about what we say in emails” because “we have several occasions where Congress has asked for emails and there has been an electronic search for responsive emails.”   Continue reading “Lois Lerner: ‘We Need to Be Cautious About What We Say in Emails’”

The Iraqi government has informed the United Nations that it has lost control of a former chemical weapons depot to Islamist insurgents affiliated with ISIS, or IS, and cannot carry out its obligations to destroy what’s stored in the compound.

In a letter penned by Iraq’s UN Ambassador Mohamed Ali Alhakim, it was revealed that “armed terrorist groups” took over the Muthanna complex on June 11. Located north of Baghdad, the facility was the main center for chemical weapons production prior to the 1991 Gulf War, and is still home to 2,500 rockets containing the lethal nerve agent sarin.   Continue reading “Iraq loses control of chemical weapons depot to ISIS militants”

An Immigration and Customs Enforcement employee claims that the Obama administration has handed a number of ICE agents in the Murrieta/LA area paid temporary leave, a move that will exacerbate the mass influx of illegal immigrants into the region.

Liberty News’ Eric Odom, who is currently on the scene in the flashpoint town of Murrieta, says an ICE employee who lives in Orange County told him, “the Obama administration has furloughed Murrieta/LA area ICE agents full time until further notice,” but that the agents would continue to receive full pay.   Continue reading “Source: Obama Gives Murrieta Area Ice Agents Stand Down Order”

A Texas town south of Houston has launched a pre-emptive strike prohibiting the federal government from using facilities in their community as shelters to house the overflow of illegal immigrants flooding the southern U.S. border.

“The League City council voted 6-2 to adopt the resolution Tuesday night. It refuses any request from the federal government to set up detention or processing centers there, citing unspecified ‘health concerns,’” reports the Associated Press.   Continue reading “Texas Town: No Quarter for Illegals”

Redress Information and Analysis

Britain’s state broadcaster, the BBC, is once again telling the world, blatantly and shamelessly, that Israeli lives are worth more than Palestinian lives.

“Israel under renewed Hamas attack”: this was last night’s BBC headline on the escalating bloodshed in Gaza,” writes Owen Jones in the Guardian newspaper. “It is as perverse as Mike Tyson punching a toddler, followed by a headline claiming that the child spat at him,” he says, adding:   Continue reading “BBC in full pro-Israel propaganda gear”

Governor Rick Perry ended up greeting President Barack Obama on the tarmac in Texas after all.

Despite the Republican’s refusal of Obama’s initial invitation, Perry turned up at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport after the president agreed to a “substantive meeting” with Perry to discuss the recent surge of unaccompanied children at the U.S.-Mexico border:   Continue reading “Rick Perry Ended Up Greeting Obama On The Tarmac After All”

Free-Man’s Perspective

Growing up, I heard lots of complaints from parents and teachers about children being conceited, proud, and arrogant. Looking back, it seems to me that most of these complaints were related to a failure to obey. We did have one or two kids who were arrogant jerks, but the rest of us received the same comments they did.

But whatever motivated the adults of my youth, they were mostly wrong – it’s not our overvaluation of ourselves that is the real problem; it’s our undervaluation.   Continue reading “We have Undervalued Ourselves”

An internal summary of Border Patrol operations at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Nogales (Arizona) Placement Center stated that 16 unaccompanied immigrant children being held at the facility are members of Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) transnational criminal gang.

The summary, which was obtained by the Townhall online magazine, noted that Border Patrol officials at Nogales were alerted to the MS-13 presence among the detainees when they discovered gang-related graffiti in the walls of the processing center. It stated:   Continue reading “Illegal Immigrant “Children” Include MS-13 Gang Members”

As everyone knows, the U.S. government is operating under strict austerity budgeting, pinching every penny and slashing every expense. Despite this reality, the White House still found some money to renovate its bowling alley.

Thank goodness. Now White House visitors will be spared from the horror of “chipped lanes and worn-out shoes.” (Is this some Third World hellhole, or is this America?) According to Time:   Continue reading “This Is Austerity: The White House Will Install a Snazzier Bowling Alley”

It looks like it’s time to start filing EEOC claims, suing and boycotting these companies along with others too. These companies and temporary staffing agencies are way outta control. They are posting a lot of jobs that are based in the United States of America in foreign countries like India, China, Mexico, Philippines, Russia etc. then hiring them to do the job here.   Continue reading “Boycott IBM, Manpower, Infosys, Harley Davidson, & Abusive Temp Staffing Agencies”
