"dead broke" Hitlery Rotten Clinton
"According to her joint tax return with Bill for 2001, they had a $16,165,110 income for her first year out of the White House. Even before they left the White House, their joint income for 2000 was $359K... At the tail end of their first presidency, Hillary got a book advance of $8M, and not to be outdone, Bill got a $15M deal at about the same time. She got more than $2M of this in 2001. The Clintons have amassed a huge amount of wealth since leaving office—upwards of $100M...."

Iraqi officials told the Guardian that upwards of 30K soldiers -- 2 divisions -- simply fled from about 800 ISIS fighters. The militants joyfully seized U.S.A.-made Humvees and BlackHawks, according to numerous reports and photographic evidence, as well as SCUDs and Howitzers, and transported many back to Syria to share with extremists there. Militants also bull-dozed the border line between Syria and Iraq, celebrating this breaking of an international border as the beginning of the caliphate...

an old story repeats: ICE raided visa/diploma/student-loan mill, closed it, and then let it open again days later
"After much investigation and inter-agency cooperation, ICE investigators and other feds raided 5 operations of a career college in NY and NJ on May 29 and, according to the local CBS station, scooped up lots of evidence of 'inflating attendance records of foreign students', and then allowed it to re-open for classes 10 days later. The entities raided are Micropower Career Institute and its sidekick, the Institute for Health Education... These were sizable operations. According to the complaint about 644 of the 729 foreign students at MCI's Manhattan campus, or 88% of them, had delinquent attendance records and should have been deported. So, in this one location, the institution was harboring more than 600 visa abusers, but only had 275 seats in the classrooms for the 729 F-1 students, plus an unknown number of domestic ones. Similarly, the complaint notes that, 'Since 2008, over $13M in Pell Grant and other federal financial aid funds have been disbursed to MCI.'... there is no indication anywhere -- on the web-site, in the news coverage, in the U.S. Attorney's press release or in the PACER files (of federal court records) -- that any action has been taken against the hundreds of foreign students, the F-1 visa abusers, who were cheating the immigration system... Bharara's office, incidentally, is well known for major suits against Wall Street interests that are settled with civil penalties, sometimes, at the billion dollar-plus level, but with virtually no criminal indictments. In the MCI case we have the opposite: 5 criminal indictments but no civil penalties such as the closure of the cheating schools."

view from the southern border
"a Texas state official... 'What we saw and heard was maddening, frightening, and pathetic. The pictures shown in the media of the conditions at the BP [Border Patrol] facilities is accurate. We saw several hundred youths crammed into holding cells, with the spillover out in the loading dock area. While we did see some infants and small children. the vast majority were teenage males. Although the [redacted] facility was terribly over-crowded, sanitation seemed adequate at the time, but BP officers were concerned about the spread of disease. BP officials and line officers were clearly demoralized by what is going on. BP folks were very candid in saying there was nothing they could do about the kids pouring across the border unless there was a change in policy in DC... They readily admitted that none of these kids were ever going to be sent back and that our border is wide open for unaccompanied minors. BP also said that the drug cartels are certainly taking advantage of the situation... I was told by one BP official that if it wasn't for DPS there wouldn't be any security on the Texas border.'"

Dave Brat victory gives GOP a chance to become more popular
"Dave Brat's largest source of campaign cash was Baugh Auto Body on West Broad Street in Richmond... Brat explained on the trail that he's pro-business, but 'I'm against Big Business in bed with Big Government.'... Immigration became Brat's biggest issue, and he cast that in terms of corporate [executive] interests versus the middle class. Of increased immigration, Brat said, 'big business gets the cheap labor and the American people pay the tab'... Democrats, you see, have guys like senator Chuck Schumer of New York as their liaisons to Wall Street. Most of the senators and congressmen from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut are expected to funnel money from Wall Street to the Democratic Party. Republicans, though, hold almost no seats in the New York City area... Now who will be the House GOP's Wall Street guy? Normally, that job could fall to the Financial Services Committee chairman. But the man with that gavel today, Jeb Hensarling, is notably a lukewarm fundraiser -- a fact that has stunted his ambitions for a party leadership job. More importantly, Hensarling's free-market views put him at odds with the financial sectors on 2014's most pressing issues before his committee: Fannie Mae, terrorism insurance subsidies, flood insurance subsidies and export-financing subsidies... Maybe Republicans should take a cue from the voters of [Dave Brat &] Virginia's 7th District and forget about the big banks and the hedge funds... [while avoiding funnelling those funds to the leftists/Dems]."

O'Keefe's stings got inside the [race-obsessed anti-Semitic anti-Christian crony-socialist oath-breaker Barack Hussein Obummer] presidential campaign and exposed more efforts to commit voter fraud there. Had a Republican campaign engaged in the same conduct, it would have led the network news for days. O'Keefe's stings led to the retirement of the president of the Wisconsin senate this year. He had the #2 selling book worldwide. This year he exposed how Wisconsin representative James Sensenbrenner doesn't even know what is in his own voting rights bill to give Eric Holder more power over state elections. And O'Keefe's videos appear regularly as part of congressional hearings... But the real reason O'Keefe is hated so much by big government types...is because O'Keefe understands the mechanics of the left..."

illegal aliens on the NAFTA gravy train
"Do you remember when president George W. Bush [a.k.a. Shrub], in 2005, held a summit meeting with the '3 amigos' to promote the free movement of people and goods across our borders with Canada and Mexico? The Council on Foreign Relations [CFR] then spoke of 'building a North American community' with a common 'security perimeter' and 'labor mobility' among our three countries. Texas planned to build a massive NAFTA superhighway that would begin at its southern border with Mexico and eventually reach northern U.S. cities. The Kansas City Southern Railway bought a Mexican railroad and began branding it as the NAFTA railroad, with the goal of carrying [Red Chinese] products from Mexico's Pacific port of Lazaro Cardenas all the way to Kansas City..."

on sudden increase in barbarian invasion, White House story falls apart
"At any other time, the growing crisis on the Mexican border, with tens of thousands of unaccompanied young people crossing illegally into the United States, might dominate the news. Yet the situation has received less attention than it might amid the furor over [Dave Brat's primary victory], the collapse of Iraq, the continuing Bergdahl matter, [the unresolved Fast and Furious corruption, IRS corruption, ObummerDoesn'tCare], and [Hitlery Rotten] Clinton's book tour... Recent days have been filled with anecdotal reports, from local news outlets in Central America to major American newspapers, citing immigrants who say they came because they believe U.S. law has been changed to allow them to stay. And now comes word that Border Patrol agents in the most heavily-trafficked area of the surge, the Rio Grande Valley sector of Texas, recently questioned 230 illegal immigrants about why they came. The results showed overwhelmingly that the immigrants, including those classified as UACs, or unaccompanied children, were motivated by the belief that they would be allowed to stay in the United States -- and not by conditions in their homelands... 'The main reason the subjects chose this particular time to migrate to the United States was to take advantage of the new U.S. [Obummer executive decree] that grants a free pass or permit (referred to as permisos) being issued by the U.S. government to female adult OTMs traveling with minors and to UACs... The issue of permisos was the main reason provided by 95% of the interviewed subjects... All of the interviewed subjects stated that they had family members or, to a lesser extent, friends already living in the U.S.A.'..."

Obummer regime advisor: the Muslim Caliphate is inevitable: thousands murdered by terrorists in Iraq in recent days
"Frank Gaffney of the National Center for Security Policy has spent many years documenting the Muslim Brotherhood penetration of the US government and the Muslim Brotherhood ties of such key [Obummer regime] figures as Hillary Clinton's close advisor Huma Abedin and Mohamed Elibiary, a noted Islamist serving as a Senior Fellow on the Department of Homeland Security's Advisory Council. Elibiary has been particularly unabashed in his promotion of the radical Islamist point of view and posted this very revealing Tweet to his Twitter account on June 13 (hat tip to Kerry Picket for pointing it out): 'As I've said b4 inevitable that Caliphate returns. Choice only whether we support #EU like Muslim Union vision or not.'... Brotherhood's objectives of advancing the global conquest of Islam and reestablishing the Islamic Caliphate, the public and private duties of jihad and the struggle Muslims must wage against Israel."

Only 39% of Americans define themselves in the middle, as a mixed bag of liberal and conservative values. The majority of Americans, the other 61%, see themselves as on the liberal left or the conservative right. 34% say they are mostly or consistently [leftist], and 27% say they are mostly or consistently [non-leftist]. Just 10 years ago, 49% -- 10 percentage points more -- defined themselves in the mixed middle...

Dave Brat vs. the leftist Borg in November general election
"[Dem's] nomination for Virginia's 7th District congressional seat was codified not in a convention hall or at the ballot box, but in a hastily arranged conference call Sunday with a handful of district committee members. The 50-year-old [Dem's] nod received little media attention inside Virginia -- as of Monday, most outlets were still reporting that the district had no Democratic candidate -- and next to none outside the commonwealth... The giant-killer Brat, 49, a Tea Party fave [campaigning] on conservative causes, especially immigration, during the primary campaign, has become a rock star pin-up for the [non-leftist] wing of the GOP in the wake of his astonishing victory... 'Barring some really major errors by Brat, this race shouldn't be on the radar as a competitive race in November.', Geoffrey Skelley, a political analyst at the University of Virginia, said. 'It's difficult to see Brat losing. And because of the basic fundamentals of the district, it's unlikely national Democrats will invest much here.' The more likely scenario, Skelley says, is that Brat will win in November -- and then 'will have to fend off some serious GOP primary challengers [backed by the more left-leaning losership] in 2016'..."

This was their finest hour
"What [general Maxime Weygand] has called the Battle of France is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilisation. Upon it depends our own British life, and the long continuity of our institutions and our Empire. The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us. Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be freed and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new dark age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves, that if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour.'..."

We haven't yet announced when we are going to pull our troops out of Germany or Japan, and World War 2 was over more than 60 years ago...

In fact, GW did make the mistake of exchanging prisoners before the Revolutionary War was over, and they did go back onto the battle-field, using information gained while loosely and generously treated as POWs, to try to defeat us. A number of officers and soldiers, mostly Hessians, were held near Charlottesville, VA. While POWs, they were hosted at dinners by the city fathers, by Jefferson and others in the region. They were allowed to travel over 100 miles down (north) the Shenandoah valley to visit spas like Berkeley Springs, where Washington's brother owned land. After being exchanged, they used their knowledge of the land in subsequent attempts to capture governor Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry and other state legislators and disrupt this region bread-basket...jgo

2 Jewish teens kidnapped in Israel by Palestinian terrorists: time to stop subsidizing the terrorists
"Ittael Fraenkel, a 16-year-old with American and Israeli citizenship, and 2 other Israeli teens, Gilad Shaar and Eyal Yifrah, were kidnapped on June 12 on their way home from school. The president of the United States has said nothing. Secretary of State [the haughty] John Kerry [who served in VietNam] waited 3 days to issue a press release in which he identified the boys only as 'Israelis', letting us know he was praying for them. Many other countries -- led by Canada's foreign minister -- issued condemnations before Kerry, even though none of their citizens were involved. Just one day before the boys were kidnapped, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki, at the daily press briefing said the Hamas/PLO Palestinian unity government was a 'technocratic government' and that 'nothing has changed as it relates to our assistance' -- notwithstanding that Hamas is a U.S.A.-designated terrorist organization... the only kidnappings that [the race-obsessed anti-Semitic anti-Christian crony-socialist oath-breaker Barack Hussein Obummer's] delegate could manage to condemn [in the UN] were those of Turks in Iraq, not that of an American child!... Nowhere in the long list of conditions and the hand-wringing over the poor terrorists did the UN mention the terrorists' sordid hatred, aversion to liberty and preference for obscene violence. Just a few months ago, Barack Obama and John Kerry demanded Israel release from prison Palestinian murderers who had been duly convicted for their crimes..."

"'You can go ahead and experiment with things. There's so many different stories to tell out there. You can be 21 or 81... If you tell yourself, I'm too old to do that BS. You're not too old to do anything.' I have always wondered why people and our society in general try so hard to get older people to give up in life and often times, at a pretty early age. My experience is that once you hit 37, people start telling you that you are too old to do so many things. If you live to be Eastwood's age (84), that is almost 50 years of negative messages coming one's way. Good thing he probably never listened."

reparations for slavery
"They want government to compensate today's blacks for the bondage suffered by our ancestors. But there's a problem. Government has no resources of its very own. The only way for government to give one American a dollar is to first -- through intimidation, threats and coercion -- confiscate that dollar from some other American... When African slavery began, there was no way Europeans could have enslaved millions of Africans. They had no immunity from diseases that flourished in tropical Africa. Capturing Africans to sell into slavery was done by Arabs and black Africans. Would reparations advocates demand that citizens of Ghana, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Kenya and several Muslim states tax themselves to make reparation payments to progeny of people whom their ancestors helped to enslave?..."

House/senate losership; ISIL terrorist group
"'In Arabic, the group is known as Al-Dawla Al-Islamiya fi al-Iraq wa al-Sham, or the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham. The term al-Sham refers to a region stretching from southern Turkey through Syria to Egypt, also including Lebanon, Israel, the Palestinian territories and Jordan. The group's stated goal is to restore an Islamic state, or caliphate, in this entire area. The standard English term for this broad territory is 'the Levant.' Therefore, AP's translation of the group's name is the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, or ISIL.', says Tom Kent, AP standards editor... 'saying just Iraq and Syria suggests incorrectly that the group's aspirations are limited to these 2 present-day countries.'... 57% of Americans say that 'a new person' should have a chance to be elected in their district. 54% worry that for the rest of his term, [the race-obsessed anti-Semitic anti-Christian crony-socialist oath-breaker Barack Hussein Obummer] 'cannot lead and get the job done'. 50% say the [Obummer regime] is competent in its role in managing the federal government. 45% favor a Democrat-controlled congress and 42% favor a Republican-controlled congress. 42% say [Obummer] is a productive leader [rather than a destructive leader?]. 32% say their current representative deserves to be re-elected.

Sanders/McCain Veterans Admin reform bill is a sham (just like the reprehensible immigration law perversion proposals such as S744)
"in truth, the bill won't speed up health care for vets. The fine print sabotages vets wanting to go outside the Veterans Affairs system. Last week, the VA's internal investigation revealed that 57,436 newly enrolled veterans are facing wait times of at least 90 days for a first appointment, and 63,869 vets who signed up with the VA in the past decade never got an appointment. At least 23 vets died waiting. Worse, three-quarters of VA facilities manipulated waiting lists or kept dummy books. The Sanders/McCain bill will let the waiting and corruption continue. Yes, the bill creates a 'Choice Card' permitting veterans to access civilian care if they live 40 miles or more from a VA hospital or can't get an appointment within the VA's definition of an acceptable wait time. But the devil is in the fine print. Sanders opposed the Choice Card until the final negotiations and inserted language in the bill that would make it almost impossible to use the card. That's deliberate. Unions have fought every program to use civilian care. 9 of Sanders' top 10 campaign donors are unions... Section 301 says vets seeking civilian care have to get a letter from the VA secretary confirming that a VA appointment isn't available. Good luck getting that letter. Some vets have called and emailed their local VA for six months or more without getting any response. Hurdle #2 comes at the non-VA doctor's office. The Choice Card tells the doctor: 'Please call the Department of Veterans Affairs phone number specified on this card to ensure that treatment has been authorized.' Good luck getting that call answered. To top it off, the bill stipulates that the choice-card program will end in 2 years -- probably only a few hours after the VA finally gets the hot-line set up [and staffed with foreign guest-workers or based off-shore] and issues the cards... Section 408 says that any employee caught falsifying data about wait times or the quality of care vets get will be subject to 'a penalty the secretary considers appropriate after notice and opportunity for a hearing'. No mandatory minimums..."

teen unemployment in Maine: few want to hire
Not as many companies are hiring, and when they are, they are not hiring young people with little experience. Also, older residents are staying in the work-force longer, taking up some of those jobs that typically would have been available for younger job-seekers... So, yes, there is some crowding out, but more likely what is happening is more nuanced. Nationally, there has been a hollowing out of middle-skilled jobs, with job creation concentrated more in high-skill and low-skill jobs -- also known as job or labor market-polarization, though the causes of which are up for dispute. Those low-skilled jobs have been typically taken by lower-educated and younger workers. However, those working in middle-skilled occupations who are laid off are faced with a choice; increase their skills to compete for those high-skilled jobs, or accept a low-skilled job. IOW, middle-skilled workers are opting to be under-employed (where their skills exceed the requirements of the job they have). In turn, this pushes low-skilled workers, such as teenagers, down or out of the labor market..."

Rupert Murdoch, the Australian, says he cannot wait for amnesty for illegal aliens in USA, unlmited US guest-work visas for cheap, young, pliant, low-skilled tech labor with flexible ethics
Aileen Graef: UPI
"A day after dining with [the race-obsessed anti-Semitic anti-Christian crony-socialist oath-breaker Barack Hussein Obummer's] top adviser Valerie Jarrett, Murdoch, the chairman of the group that owns Fox News and the Wall Street Journal, pushed for amnesty and an unlimited number of high-tech guest-worker visas in a Wednesday op-ed in the Journal... He urged Congress to pass a path to citizenship for all of the country's illegal immigrants and eliminate the cap on H-1B visas, which he says is 'arbitrary and results in U.S. companies struggling [but not actually lifting a finger] to find the [cheap, young, pliant, low-skilled foreign] workers [with flexible ethics] they [want] to continue growing [and deploying new privacy violation schemes]'. Murdoch falsely stated that there is a shortage of 'qualified' American candidates in the high-tech sector. In fact, numerous scholars and studies from academia and [leftist], main-stream, and conservative organizations have proven that there is actually a surplus and not a shortage of American high-tech workers, contrary to Murdoch's assertion... talk radio host Rush Limbaugh said it was 'quite telling' that Fox News hosts would not allow him to discuss his opposition to amnesty legislation when he made an appearance on the network. 'Now I told the people at Fox that I wanted to talk about this today 3 or 4 times and they wouldn't do it.', Limbaugh said on his radio show after his appearance. 'They were not interested in bringing this subject up. I wanted to talk about this in relationship to the current state of the Republican party and they wouldn't do it.'"

Norm Matloff _H-1B/ L-1/ Off-Shoring News-Letter_
Fortune article on age discrimination in tech
Test from Professor Matloff:
Quickly! What are the two MOST IMPORTANT reasons the tech industry loves the H-1B program so much?
...
[4: cheap,
young,
pliant, low-skilled labor...
with questionable ethics]
...
If you answered "cheap labor", you only receive partial credit. Yes, it's true in general, but the BIG savings accrue from using H-1B to avoid hiring older (35+) Americans.
If you did not also answer "immobile labor, tied to the employer", then sorry, you don't get a passing grade. (I know you've been working hard in this class, but you've been missing the major points.)
Today's post, though, will concentrate on the age issue, prompted by the article in Fortune, "Tech Industry Job Ads: Older Workers Need Not Apply", by Verne Kopytoff. 2014 June 19.
The title may be banal, but the article itself is truly outstanding. Here is a journalist who really did his homework! I don't mean to imply that the excellent journalists who read this e-news-letter don't do their homework. But many in the field write articles using the formula:
(a) put a sympathetic victim in the lead,
(b) get 2 quotes from both sides of the issue (1 of which blames the victim), and
(c) call it a day.
A lot of people complain to me that the press is biased on H-1B issues, but in my 20+ years of writing in this area, I've only encountered 2 really biased reporters (1, unfortunately, is recent); instead, the problems come largely from laziness.
[While I've never known, met, or corresponded with an objective writer or editor. The finger-prints of spin or propaganda are all over their work.]
The article here takes as a starting point a very good public source of data -- job ads. These openly ask for (and implicitly, restrict to) new or recent graduates. This is extremely common, to the point where, Intel for example, has formal NCG and RCG job categories (New/Recent College Graduate).
I've written about this before. See for instance a FB example.
Also see this current job at NASA Ames in Silicon Valley.
This job has a Senior title -- for only 5 years of experience (or MS + 2 years). [They call that] Senior!
See also CrunchBoard where a job add contained a line "Career Level: Mid Career (2+ years of experience)".
And note that that job at NASA is actually a UC job, not formally a NASA one, so H-1Bs probably qualify under various loop-holes [both the government research operation and the educational institution exemptions]. (Some years ago, industry lobbyist Harris Miller got the Defense Dept. to relax rules on this anyway.) But even without H-1Bs, those with, say, 15 years of experience will probably be summarily rejected, I believe. That's if the job is actually open in the first place, which may not be the case. Given the overly detailed job requirements, it's very possible that they already have someone they want to hire, whether H-1B or American, and are just going through formalities of advertising the job.
As someone who (used to) serve as an expert witness in age discrimination cases, I've always wondered how the tech firms could get away with advertising jobs as being restricted to new/recent graduates.
Well, this does-his-homework reporter wondered too, and he asked the EEOC about it. Turns out that the EEOC thinks it's illegal, as you'll see in the article. Unfortunately, even the EEOC lawyer really doesn't get it; he says, "We think it deters older applicants from applying.", when what he should have said was, "We suspect that employers use this ploy to automatically reject the older workers without even a phone call."
In this manner, older applicants are rejected as "over-qualified". And with the overly long list of job requirements ("overly" in the sense that advance knowledge of the skills is not essential to doing the job well), the older workers are, ironically, also considered UNDER-qualified. Over-qualified AND under-qualified -- doesn't leave much, does it?
The employer then, in a green card sponsorship for a foreign worker, can say that no suitable Americans were found for the job. And hiring managers will tell you, in full though naive sincerity, that they had to resort to hiring H-1Bs because there were no qualified American applicants; HR won't send them the over-35 American applicant files (or maybe not ANY American applicant files), so the managers really believe there is a talent shortage that makes H-1B essential.
The one substantial error made by the author of this piece is that he accepts the firms' statistics on average age of their workers. This is highly misleading, because they are including types of jobs that are not generally held by H-1B, e.g. managers, accountants, marketers, packagers etc. This is similar to the trick companies use when they say "Only 5% of our workers are H-1Bs" -- even though the figure among engineers and programmers is 50% or more.

leftist/Dem machine notaries are meddling in Mississippi GOP primary
"Back in 2007, the United States Justice Department sued the chairman of the Noxubee Democratic Executive committee, Ike Brown. I served on the team that prosecuted that case. Brown was found liable for discriminating against white voters from his perch as the head of the Democrat party. The federal court discussed the behavior of one particular notary -- Carrie Kate Windham. Windham was found to have harvested votes as a notary, sometimes voting the actual ballots of the voters... This is the sort of voter fraud that academics and political hacks (but I repeat myself) say is rare and doesn’t really amount to much. Tatler can report that the notaries who have been engaged in voter fraud going back at least a decade are now in the field once again harvesting absentee ballots from African-Americans in the Republican primary who normally never vote in the Republican primary in Mississippi. Under Mississippi law, this is illegal. MS Code Ann. 23-15-575 says that one cannot vote in a primary if one does not intend to support the nominee in November."

"'...Sir, our native, substantial, independent yeomanry, constitute our pride, efficiency and strength; they are our defence in war, our ornaments in peace; and no population, I will venture to affirm, upon the face of the globe, is more distinguished for an elevated love of freedom—for morality, virtue, frugality and independence, than the Virginia peasantry west of the Blue Ridge...'"

Wesley Pruden _Jewish World Review_
most politicians have little sense of shame
"The elites, non-partisan but mostly Democrats, are encouraging hell on the border to force immigration [law perversion, and oppose reform]. This is painful for the children but tolerable as long as it doesn't inconvenience the elites. The photographs of children sleeping on the floor at shelters in Arizona and Texas would break Harry Reid's heart if he had one. The children are there at the not so subtle invitation of [Obummer]... Congress could get to work on actual immigration reform early tomorrow morning if [Obummer], abetted by Mr. Reid and his lock-step Democrats, would compromise with Republicans on the crucial particulars of what to do about the tsunami of Hispanics washing over the border. In the Democratic play-book, amnesty, [it would be the 8th in the last 3 decades: 1986, 1994, 2 in 1997, 1998, 2 in 2000], is the only way to quiet the border... The term 'Redskins' originated with the Indians. Indeed, Oklahoma, the state where the wind comes sweeping down the plain, draws its name from the Choctaw words 'okla' and 'humma', meaning ['red-skinned people']... If the elites actually want to do something for the American Indians -- or 'red Indians', as our British cousins call them, to distinguish them from the original Indians of Asia, who come in various dusky shades -- there's plenty to do, and plenty of red Indians to do it with. The U.S. Government recognizes 5.6M red Indians among us, in 566 separate tribes in 35 states. They suffer a poverty rate of nearly 24%. Many are alcoholics, and suffer rates of cirrhosis of the liver 368% higher than other Americans, diabetes 177% higher, and suicide 65% higher. In Alaska, young men, many of them Aleuts, are 9 times as likely to kill themselves than all American young men, and native Alaskan women are 19 times more likely to die by suicide. Actually doing something useful to help the descendants of the people who got here before the rest of us is not as likely to make the papers or the television news as a parade of phony outrage..."

A 2011 Pew poll asked, '[D]o you have a positive or negative reaction to the word...Capitalism [or] Socialism?' 55% of Hispanics reported having a 'negative reaction' to the word 'capitalism'. Compare that 55% with self-identified 'Liberal Democrats', 47% of whom had a 'negative reaction' to the word 'capitalism'. Only 32% of Hispanics had 'a positive reaction' to the word 'capitalism'. 41% of blacks and 55% of whites had 'a positive reaction' to the word 'capitalism'..."

Claudia Tenney is as rock-solid of a Republican as they come: pro-life, pro-limited government, pro-Second Amendment, pro-entrepreneur, pro-American worker. As one of New York's top conservative legislators, Tenney has been unafraid to challenge the powers that be in both political parties. As an attorney, she has fought valiantly against cronyism and corruption. She has opposed the New York Democratic [leftist] machine on everything from in-state tuition discounts for illegal aliens to [tax-victim] slush funds to dirty casino-government deals... Hanna is also a member of the left-wing 'Republican Main Street Partnership' -- the pro-bail-out, pro-debt, pro-amnesty, anti-drilling group infested with lobbyists and fronted by Beltway barnacle turned Tea Party-bashing lobbyist Steve LaTourette... Hanna is a soft-on-borders, U.S. Chamber of [Crony-Socialists]-supported pol pushing amnesty and massive increases in foreign tech visas. Tenney, by contrast, opposes amnesty, expansions of illegal alien benefits, and the cheap-labor tech visa racket..."

'We will not be strong-armed by federal officials.', Smith said. 'We will not be pushed around.' The crowd cheered his comments, and he received high-fives from the audience as he left.

A parent, usually a mom, makes a seat-of-the-pants decision: Should I drag my kid out of the car and make this into a longer stop or leave him behind, the way our parents left us?... The reality is that having a child wait in the car does put a child at risk -- but so does taking a child out of the car.

king sense of the chaos and blood-shed in Iraq means understanding of 1,239 years of history
"The year is 775. The place is Baghdad. The Sunni caliph Al Mansur 'The Victorious', founder of Baghdad, City of Peace and capital of the great Islamic empire that stretches from Central Asia to the Atlantic coast, has just died on his haj pilgrimage to Mecca. His son and heir Mahdi, and Mahdi's wife Rita, have been given the keys to a secret under-ground crypt, with orders to leave the room alone until the caliph's death is confirmed. They rush down to the store-room, hearts aflutter, expecting to find piles of golden dinars, silver dirhams, precious stones and untold treasures. Baghdad is the Athens of the East, the world's richest and most glorious city. But behind the unlocked door something very different awaits them. The vast chamber is filled with corpses. There are men, women and children of all ages. Every body has a leather tag in the ear detailing the victim's name and genealogy. Apart from their execution at the hands of Mansur's hench-men, they have one thing in common. All are Shia descendants of Ali and his wife Fatima, daughter of the Prophet Mohammed..."

"our bodies' stress hormone, cortisol, may be the ultimate cause for short-term memory loss... we need cortisol, so there's no hope of completely eliminating the hormone. Without it, you most likely wouldn't have lived long enough to be the stressed out adult you are today. When things get particularly tough, cortisol helps us to react more efficiently. However, the hormone is only meant to help us in short term emergencies, such as getting chased by a dog on your way home from work. When we are habitually stressed, the hormone stays in our systems much longer than usual. It's this overexposure that researchers believe contributes to short-term memory loss... Prolonged exposure to this stress hormone is also associated with physical problems such as weight gain, digestive problems, and higher blood pressure, according to Mayo Clinic..."

how the left distorts history to inspire new generations of activists
"The American Left has been expert in indoctrinating a new generation with false history. We have seen this with Oliver Stone and Peter Kuznick's Showtime TV series on the Cold War, and especially with the writings and pseudo-history of the late Howard Zinn. While conservatives -- with some laudable exceptions -- concentrate largely on policy issues, the left knows that it is not sufficient to work only for its own political agenda. The left realizes it needs to capture the realm of culture, which includes the portrayal of the American past..."

Splunk's eRegulations Insights analysis of comments to proposed grant of work-permit to spouses of H-1B visa grantees shows lots of cookie-cutter talking-points material
CIO
"An analysis of 6,650 comments, the size of the comment pool at the time the tool was run, identified 615 unique comments, or 9% of the total. Of the 6,035 non-unique comments, 453 were exact duplicates of 10 different comments... Splunk then applied the Naive Bayes classifier, a data mining tool for categorizing text and determining sentiment on a scale of one to 10. The higher the score, the higher the happiness. In this case, the sentiment score for the H-1B regulation was about 6.2."

"The Constitution of the United States does not give presidents the power to carry out major policy changes without the cooperation of other branches of government. Once the country becomes disenchanted with a president during his second term, congress has little incentive to cooperate with him -- and, once congress becomes uncooperative, there is little that a president can do on his own. That is, if he respects the Constitution. President [Obummer] has demonstrated, time and again, that he has no respect for the Constitution's limitations on his power. Despite his oath of office, to see that the laws are faithfully executed, [Obummer] has unilaterally changed welfare reform laws, by eliminating the work requirement passed by congress during the Clinton administration... President Obama has ordered Border Patrol agents not to carry out provisions of the immigration laws that he does not like.

image analysis software can, early on, spot rare genetic disorders in facial portraits
"The software was developed by University of Oxford researchers Christoffer Nellåker and Andrew Zisserman. Together with a group of colleagues, the pair fed 1,363 pictures of people with genetic disorders (the photos were publicly available) into an algorithm designed to track for specific facial features of eight key disorders. Progeria, for example, is marked by a beaking of the nose and eyes that sink into their sockets. Relying on the bank of stored pictures, the software can read a sample image and scan it for known features. It then spits out a ranking of possible matches. To demonstrate the software's power, the team gave it a training test. They showed it pictures of people with eight known genetic disorders, for which the machine had between 100 and 283 images handy for reference. On average, the machine correctly predicted disorder 93% of the time. Now that it can screen for nearly 12 times as many disorders, with 2,754 faces at its disposal, Nellåker says it's well on its way to helping pediatricians diagnose patients. 'It's not sufficiently accurate to provide a rock-solid diagnosis, but it helps narrow down the possibilities.', he said..."

blocking access to faith, family, freedom web-sites
"his school's Internet service blocked him from gathering conservative facts for his side of the argument on his school debate team. Andrew told Fox News, 'I knew it was important to get facts for both sides of the case.' But when he tried to do an Internet search of conservative views, he was prevented at every turn. After being blocked from web-sites supporting Americans' constitutional right to bear arms as stated in the Second Amendment, Andrew soon learned his school's computers prohibited him from viewing any web-site or information that wasn't [leftist] in nature. National Rifle Association web-site -- blocked. The Republican Party web-site -- blocked. National Right to Life web-site -- blocked. Pro-traditional marriage web-sites -- blocked. Vatican web-site -- blocked. But here's what wasn't blocked in his continued Internet search: pro-gun-control websites, the Democratic Party website, the Planned Parenthood website, an LGBT website and an Islamic web-site. Andrew took his grievance up the chain of command at his Connecticut high school -- first to the principal and then to the superintendent and then to the school board. Nearly 2 months after the incident, Andrew's only official response has come through the superintendent, who wrote a letter about the issue to parents and citizens in their community because news of the liberal bent was spreading like wild-fire... She was puzzled, however, that 'many of the [leftist] sites accessible to the student fell into the not rated category, which was unblocked while many of the conservative sites were in the political/advocacy group which is accessible to teachers but not to students.' Mrs. Superintendent, there's no surprise or mystery here. The problem is not the software but those programming it."

illegal aliens are not "refugees"
"As we have observed on many occasions, and senator Sessions reiterated in his op-ed, the US graduates approximately twice as many science, technology, engineering and math-trained students each year as there are so-called STEM jobs to fill. 'There is a large surplus of unemployed Americans with STEM degrees and yet, per the Economic Policy Institute, the annual inflow of guest-workers amount to one-third to one-half of all new IT jobs holders.' As Rutgers Professor Hal Salzman poignantly asked, 'Average wages in IT today are the same as they were when Bill Clinton was president well over a decade ago...if there is in fact a shortage, why doesn't that reflect in the market? Why don't wages go up?' As senator Sessions pointed out, 'Each year, the US grants permanent legal admission to an additional 1M immigrants who will be able to apply for citizenship, along with roughly 700K guest-workers, 200K relatives of guest workers, and 500K students. These are overwhelmingly not farm workers as activists falsely suggest, but are instead workers brought in to fill jobs in every sector, occupation and industry throughout the US economy.' It is time, as senator Sessions said, for Republicans to consider immigration policy from the view-point of a middle-aged unemployed American who has to borrow gas money to drive to a job interview 100 miles away. Imagine how his or her life is affected when the company gives that open job to a temporary guest worker hired from 10K miles away. Imagine what any of the 58M working-age Americans who don't have jobs might have to say to the law-makers and activists who claim there is a 'labor shortage' or as we see it an illegal alien invasion being masked as a 'refugee crisis'."

Conservatives are asked to send the NRSC money, which is then funneled to establishment Republicans who continue to over-see and participate in the growth of government, violations of the Constitution and the consequent destruction of our liberties...

the real "modern family" tends to be neo-traditional
"modern American family life is basically 'neo-traditional' -- at least for married couples with children. For this group, family life is organized along neo-traditional lines and has been since the 1990s, when the gender revolution stalled out in married families. It's new in the sense that today's married dads do a lot more child care and housework than dads of the 1950s, and that most married moms are working in the paid labor force. But it's 'traditional' in the sense that most husbands take the lead when it comes to bread-winning, and most wives take the lead when it comes to child rearing... in 2012, married fathers earned about 69% of their families' income... more than three-quarters of married mothers do not wish to work full-time: 53% prefer part-time work and 23% prefer to be stay-at-home mothers. This stands in marked contrast to married fathers: 75% of them think working full-time is ideal and 13% prefer part-time work, according to Pew data."

Europol...report, 'the majority of EU Member States continue to consider religiously inspired terrorism as a major threat', as evidenced by '2 attacks and several disrupted plots in 2013 and an increase in arrests for religiously inspired terrorism from 159 in 2012 to 216 in 2013.' (Total terror-related arrests for 2013 was 535, 143 of which involved religiously inspired terrorists in France alone.) It is worth noting that the number of religious-inspired arrests in 2013 Europe-wide was nearly double the number in 2009... A document from the Dutch Parliament, for instance, stated that the '1.8M meta-data records were collected by Dutch agencies AIVD and MIVD in their efforts to combat terrorism and foreign military operations'."

Get this: Among examples of patients' behavior referred to the VA's 'Disruptive Behavior Committees' (yes, that's what they're called): venting 'frustration about VA services and/or wait times, threatening law-suits or to have people fired, and frequent unwarranted visits to the emergency department or telephone calls to facility staff'... 'the bean-counters' may have flagged at least one veteran for being 'too expensive'. And 'trouble-makers' who are educated and know their rights are especially vulnerable... [Obummer's] Department of Homeland Security [DHS] Federal Protective Service is now providing muscle to deter sick vets from protesting in front of VA hospitals. More of your tax-subsidized thugocracy at work."

serving the public is gone from "Civil Service"
"Back in 1883, Congress passed the Pendleton Act to replace patronage with a federal civil service where workers would be hired and paid based on merit. There is no MERIT anymore. Scramble the letters. What you have now is a TIMER system. Workers put in time, and get hefty salaries and bonuses, regardless of work quality, with virtually no risk of being fired... firing a federal worker is almost impossible, and making it stick, even less likely. Data from the Office of Personnel Management [OPM] indicate that it is five times as hard to get fired from a federal job as from a private sector one... A worker with a high school education [gets paid] 21% more working for the federal government than for a private employer and receives 72% more in benefits. A worker with a bachelor's degree also makes out better with Uncle Sam, getting about the same wages as in the private sector but 46 percent more in benefits. Only professionals, such as lawyers, medical doctors and Ph.D.s, get paid less in federal jobs than private sector ones, according to the Congressional Budget Office [CBO]. In addition, the federal workplace offers 10 paid holidays, plus 13-26 days of annual vacation (depending on longevity), and up to 13 paid sick days a year. All in all, up to 49 paid days off..."

is immigration reform more or less possible in light of recent flood of invaders?
"In all of 2013, we deported 2K children, a handful compared to the 52K who have come here thus far in 2014... Obama increased the rate of deportation from about 250K annually under former presidents George W. Bush and Clinton to more than 400K [but only by folding those turned back at the border, unlike earlier figures which counted them separately]."

Obummer is losing the war his predecessor had won
"[ISIL's] leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, had been imprisoned in Camp Bucca in Iraq, but was set free when president [Obummer] ordered the prison closed in 2009. (By the bye, Mohammad Fazl, one of the five Taliban leaders exchanged for [deserter] Bowe Bergdahl, played a critical role in al-Qaida's preparation for the 2001/09/11 attacks, reports Thomas Joscelyn of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies.)... [The left would] like to ignore what's happening in Iraq, as they ignored what happened in Vietnam in 1975. But the communist conquest of South VietNam posed a threat only to the South VietNamese [and the Cambodians and Laotians and Malaysians and Indonesians] who trusted us."

clarification about the lone "administrative law 'judge'" working on employer sanctions appeals
"About a month ago I bemoaned the fact that the administration's enforcement of employer sanctions (i.e., private employers are barred from hiring illegal aliens) is so feeble that a single administrative law judge (ALJ) could handle all the administrative appeals stemming from that enforcement. One in the whole country. Her name is Ellen K. Thomas. Well, I understated my case and I want to correct it. It is worse than that. My impression was that Ms. Thomas (whom I have not met) worked full-time on such cases; she certainly is the only ALJ in the Office of the Chief Hearing Examiner, the unit of the Justice Department that handles such work. I assumed that employer sanctions cases constituted her entire workload, but that is not the reality. She apparently also hears appeals from another really feeble enforcement effort, those from the Office of the Special Counsel; OSC is supposed to look after instances in which employers, among other things, discriminate against U.S. citizens in favor of aliens. This administration really is not very interested in such matters, and only a few cases are pursued. But ALJ Thomas also does this kind of work as well, as evidenced in a recently announced decision against a firm named Autobuses Ejecutivos, LLC... The government should be pressing thousands of such cases regarding employers' discriminatory use of the various H non-immigrant worker programs, but it does not. Let's hope the government wins this one, and the company -- if appropriate -- is not only fined by the Justice Department but is de-barred from the H-2B program by the Department of Labor."

"Our friend Matthew Boyle of Breitbart reports that, 'There were 24,889 votes cast in Hinds county in the run-off -- 17,927 were for Cochran and 6,962 were for McDaniel -- but only 20,567 Republican voters are listed in Hinds county, according to the well-known Labels and Lists Voter Data Base. The extraordinarily high turn-out in Hinds county is much more than what happened in Hinds county in the primary just a few weeks ago, when 16,640 total votes were cast -- 10,928 for Cochran and 5,621 for McDaniel.'... Some election law experts, such as our friend former DoJ attorney J.

exerting influence: examining the links between SAS and the Gülen movement
"SAS students focus on science and math, win awards at international academic competitions, conduct research in conjunction with area scientists, study Turkish and travel to Turkey and other foreign lands... The founders and leaders of SAS are, for the most part, Turkish immigrant men influenced, to varying degrees, by Gülen's [Gulen, Guelen] worldwide network. That network includes more than a thousand schools, media outlets, a trade federation, banks -- and more, according to Joshua Hendrick, of Loyola University Maryland, in Baltimore, who has studied the Gülen phenomenon extensively. He wrote _Gülen: The Ambiguous Politics of Market Islam in Turkey and the World_, NYU Press, 2013. The movement, known by its Turkish name 'cemaat' (community) or 'hizmet' (service), is all but unknown in Syracuse, yet it currently sits at the center of a scandal and power struggle that is rocking Turkey. In recent months, the Turkish government has been closing Gülen schools in Turkey, and Turkish prime-minister Recep Erdogan has asked the U.S. government to extradite Gülen, the man he considers his chief nemesis... only in the United States, with the growth of the charter school movement, have they been able to operate schools with public money... SAS, unique among Central New York schools, imports teachers and other staff, most of them of Turkish origin. SAS hires contractors and subcontractors, many of them Turkish, used by Gülen-inspired private and charter schools around the country. This practice has drawn criticism from auditors at the state Comptroller's Office... Since its founding in 2003, SAS has filed petitions for as many as 38 H-1B visas for foreign-born teachers and other personnel... As of February, four of the 115 staff at SAS held H-1B visas... In 2011, the school sought H-1B status for its director, curriculum coordinator, instructional coordinator in foreign languages, instructional technology coordinator and an IT administrator. In 2007, the school applied for a visa for a sociology teacher, and in 2009, for a psychology teacher; both were from Turkey. In 2013, the school applied for a visa for a physical education teacher... When the SAS's first director, Hakki Karaman, moved to California to run a charter school in the Gülen-affiliated Magnolia schools, the SAS board selected Hayali to run the Syracuse school. Hayali had earlier worked for Ercanli's Horizon schools, which runs charters in the Midwest. Hayali left Horizon in Ohio to work at the private Pioneer Academy of Science of Southern New Jersey. Unlike SAS, Pioneer is a private school, one of as many as 1,400 such Gülen-inspired schools worldwide, and it is regularly praised in Today's Zaman, the largest English-language newspaper in Turkey and a Gülen media outlet... Hayali was succeeded as SAS principal by Galip Bok, who came to Syracuse after serving as principal of Phoenix Academy, in Everett, MA, a charter school founded by Damkaci. Patricia Coban, who taught at SAS and served on its board since its founding, is on the faculty at Pioneer Academy in New Jersey. Coban's husband, Mustafa, is the IT director for SAS. He files the IRS forms for Terra Education and Science Foundation, which owns the buildings that house the Syracuse schools. Damkaci, chair of the self-appointed SAS board, is president of Terra. Hakki Karaman, the former director of the SAS, is principal of the Magnolia Science Academy, in San Diego, part of a network of California charter schools said to be Gülen-inspired. Magnolia, like the Pioneer and Concept Schools, also employs teachers on H-1B visas. Timur Saka resigned as principal of a Magnolia school and moved to Syracuse in October to become the director of the Turkish Cultural Center (TCC) in Syracuse... Turkish Cultural Centers around the United States all host the same types of programs and share the same logos and website design. The Syracuse center is not independently incorporated; it is a subsidiary of the center in New York City, which is, in turn, part of the Council of Turkic American Associations. Furkan Kosar, president of the council, was principal of Pioneer Academy in New Jersey, where Hayali worked... The Syracuse New Times building is one door down from SAS. We share a parking lot. Spinnaker Custom Products, a company owned by New Times publisher Bill Brod, has a business relationship with both SAS (Spinnaker makes uniforms and other items for SAS students) and with the Terra Foundation."

age-biased job ad pulled from Washington DC Post site
"The Washington Post has pulled the portion of its online job advertisement for a social media editor that lists, among its job requirements, the 'ability to explain to those twice your age what Reddit or Snapchat or Whisper or Fark is'. Further, it's a 'bonus if you've convinced them to use any of these platforms'... On Tuesday, the reference to explaining social media to older people was deleted... The original job description, which was live for about 4 days, made ripples among those who follow media industry developments... Norm Matloff, a professor of computer science at University of California, Davis, who has spoken out against age discrimination in the tech industry, said his main observation was how obvious the ad was. 'It's a little bit more blatant than one usually sees.', he said. 'Your eye was caught by an ad where age fairly obviously is an issue. Usually it's much more subtle than that.' Matloff said age discrimination is 'rampant throughout the tech industry -- an ever-growing influence in journalism -- and it's common for older workers (which he defined as beyond 35) to be automatically rejected for a job because they are 'not a new or recent college grad'. 'It's partly because of the youth culture and it's partly because of the money.', he said. 'Older workers cost more in wages and benefits.'"

how the corrupt establishment's dirty tricks defeated Chris McDaniel
"spent millions on new [deceptive] television ads, knocked on tens of thousands of doors and reached out to voters -- including African-Americans and Democrats -- who had likely never voted before in a GOP primary [because they are leftists/Democrats with no business voting in a GOP primary]... The [wolves in sheep's clothing] NRSC gave its field staff a weekend off -- and then redeployed them back to the state... In Washington, a gang of [RINO] senators dived back into the race. Just a week after the primary, senate minority-leader Mitch McConnell [who had barely won his primary challenge by spending big bux on lots of negative ads] head-lined a fund-raiser that raised more than $800K for Cochran... Senators fired off big PAC checks to Cochran. Some worked the phones for him themselves, Wicker chief among them. NRSC senior staff, including executive director Rob Collins and finance director Heather Larison, squeezed every penny they could out of Washington for their embattled colleague. Haley Barbour, the former Mississippi governor, was dialing for run-off dollars as soon as the June 3 vote ended in a dead-lock... In one case, it secured a $100K check from Silicon Valley billionaire Sean Parker [who opposes immigration reform in order to increase the already hideous flood of cheap, young, pliant, low-skilled foreign labor with flexible ethics], on top of the quarter-million dollars the Napster co-founder had already given to the [RINO] cause."

But in the case of Lerner's just revealed targeting of Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa she wasn't just trying to use the power of her office to advance a political agenda -- [obviously] abusive, but not always illegal -- she was trying to undermine a constitutional officer of the United States government and for all intents and purposes overthrow the results of the election that sent Grassley to the United States senate..."

"Over the past 30 years, Israel has released thousands of terrorists from its prisons in exchange for hostages. Thousands more have been freed as so-called 'confidence building measures', to appease our supposedly moderate Palestinian negotiating partners into sharing a table with their Israeli counterparts. In every instance, these terrorist releases have led to the murder and abduction of other Israelis. The clock started ticking down to Naftali, Gil-Ad and Eyal's abduction on 2011 October 19 when Israel released 1,027 Palestinian terrorists in exchange for IDF sergeant Gilad Schalit who had been held hostage by Hamas for more than 5 years. The count-down also began that day for the murder of Baruch Mizrahi, the police officer who was killed in a roadside shooting in April as he drove to a Passover Seder with his wife and children. Mizrahi's killer was one of the terrorists released for Schalit... Since 1985 May, when then-prime minister Shimon Peres freed 1,150 terrorists for 3 IDF soldiers held hostage by Palestinian terror master Ahmed Jibril, Israel's behavior has consistently encouraged our enemies to take hostages..."

6 reasons going outside in non-urban areas boosts your health and happiness
"Exercise... One study showed that people who spent more time in natural settings instead of urban ones were more likely to think about the future, and avoid the desire to give into instant gratification -- something that makes it so difficult for individuals to battle obesity, substance abuse, and other health problems. In short, nature helped participants become more self-controlled... 'conveys important implications for a range of personal and collective outcomes including healthy lifestyles, sustainable resource use and population growth'... taking a walk outside reduced depression scores in 71% of participants, compared to 45% of people who took a walk through a shopping mall...

Obummer chose to abandon Iraq and curry favor with CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood, and the Middle East has been going up in flames
"As a child of mixed race, religions and fatherless, [Obummer] was looking for direction. He made a decision to identify with blacks (his missing father's side), not whites, be a rebel against a colonialist and racist America, and to espouse the 'fairness' and 'justice' of Socialism and Communism, even if he had to keep it a secret to get elected. Today, one believes this president to be either incredibly inept or he's opting to put what he perceives as an evil AmeriKKKa in its place. I think it's a combination of both..."

securing the US borders when the cavalry has been ordered not to come
"About those 300 U.S. military advisers that the [Obummer regime] has ordered to Iraq. They belong on the United States border with Mexico. They are urgently needed to assess what U.S. military force should be deployed immediately to secure our own border, not Iraq's border, from what is surely the most unconventional and, I believe, the most dangerous war in our history. As tens of thousands of so-called unaccompanied alien children (UAC) crash our southern border, we are undergoing a war against the existence, the concept of the USA as a nation-state. After all, a nation-state doesn't exist unless it controls its borders and protects its citizens. We, the People, do neither. But the existential danger here comes not from the assault itself. Nightmarishly, it comes from the [Shrub regime and the Obummer regime], which, in its greatest betrayal, is leading, or at least supporting, the aliens' charge. That's why the cavalry isn't coming. A normal government -- one with the best interests of its own citizens at heart -- would have taken immediate steps to 1) halt these border crossings that pose a dire threat to public health and safety, and 2) set in motion the deportation efforts necessary to return these illegal aliens to their home countries... Every American should examine the Department of Homeland Security solicitation notice that appeared 6 months ago at the federal business opportunities site FedBizOpps.gov. The notice seeks 'Escort Services for Unaccompanied Alien Children', describing exactly the services now required to process, not deport, this massive influx. According to this notice posted back on 2014 Jan. 29, DHS was already gearing up to receive 'approximately 65K UAC in total'..."

"many of us have been warning about it for years now. It is gratifying that others -- albeit belatedly -- are waking up... he doesn't believe in American exceptionalism or decries the very idea of nationalism and prefers to consider us all citizens of the world. He believes that capitalism yields unfair results, which leads him to desire a redistribution of our resources within the United States -- and from the United States to the rest of the world. So he is pursuing an agenda that will bring America into line with the rest of the world, which is to say, he is making us weaker and less prosperous. I also happen to believe he has a grudge against [the USA] and wants to bring us down to size. But in his bizarro world [destroying everything that is good and everything that is great about the USA is 'good'.]"

The split is more pronounced among Republicans, with 50% saying immigration should be decreased, and only 14% saying it should be increased. Among Democrats, the split is 32% to 27%, respectively...

IRS: the most dangerous scandal in USA history
"I have said repeatedly that the IRS scandal is the most dangerous scandal in U.S. history for one simple reason: in the past, when the IRS had been abused for political reasons, it was always elites vs. elites. That is, it was the Kennedys using the IRS as a political weapon against Richard Nixon, or Lyndon Johnson using it the same way against Nixon, or Nixon's mere suggestion of using it to go after a certain political opponent (which he never did, by the way, and yet it was enough for the Democrats to make it the second Article of Impeachment against him). It had always been elites using the IRS as a political chainsaw against other elites whom they perceived as political enemies. Bad enough, right? As usual, Team [Obummer] has taken 'bad enough' and made it the worst case scenario. This IRS scandal is far more dangerous because it's the first time the most fearsome arm of the U.S. government has been used by the elites to target REGULAR Americans...who just happened to disagree with the president's policies and the direction in which he was taking the country..."

RU-505 may halt worsening of Alzheimer's
"RU-505 interferes with amyloid- β, which is a small protein that forms plaques in Alzheimer's brains, ultimately causing blood clots. The interference, however, stops such clots. RU-505 was discovered after reviewing 93,716 compounds from a library and testing them to amyloid-β. For over 10 years, researchers have tried different drugs on amyloid- β, but during clinical trials they couldn't slow Alzheimer's progression, or they caused serious side effects. By targeting the protein's ability to bind and clot, this new treatment approach could become a hugely significant moment in finding a cure for those suffering from Alzheimer's..."

boys memorize words differently from the way girls do
"girls were far more likely to remember forms like 'walked' while boys relied much more on their mental grammar to compose 'walked' from 'walk' and 'ed'... They also compared the children's test results to data collected from 71 adults, ages 18 to 50 and found the same results between men and women, which points to a distinct gender gap between language processing. 'One interesting aside to this is that as girls often outperform boys at school, it could be that the curriculum is put together in a way which benefits the way girls learn. It may be worth further investigation to see if this is the case and if so, is there a way lessons could be changed so boys can get the most out of them too.', Dye said."

Obummer regime censors and delays release of public information
"[A] 2009 April 15, memo from White House counsel Gregory Craig to all federal agencies has slowed, and in some cases nixed, the public release of government documents that would have been released under prior administrations. It also has given the White House the ability to track in real time who is asking for derogatory information about the Obama administration, the workers said. Mr. Craig's memo instructed federal agencies that they no longer could release under the Freedom of Information Act documents that contained 'White House equities' -- essentially any information involving or referencing communications with the White House -- without first clearing it with presidential attorneys. Because the White House is not a federal agency, it is exempt under the FOIA law and, as a matter of general principle, is not supposed to interfere with agency reviews of FOIA requests or the release of federal agency documents, legal analysts say..."

"Tolerism is a worldview in which the tolerance of cultural 'otherness' -- the more violently anti-Western the better -- has become Western elites' most celebrated (perhaps their sole) value, before which all other values, of justice, freedom, intellectual inquiry, or political dissent, have given way. Rotberg posits that it is precisely the abandonment of traditional Judeo-Christian principles and the adoption of a pernicious, unmoored moral relativism that have enabled tolerance (though it is not very tolerant) to assume its unchallenged status as the absolute virtue. The particular focus and defining example of tolerism in our post-2001/09/11 world is Western accommodation of radical Islam: the more violent and hateful the jihadists show themselves to be, the more insistent the tolerists are about the need to empathize with them..."

STEM talent glut shows in DC area
"the median [time job ads are posted] for a STEM position, 11 days... Jobs [for which employers preferred to have] a PhD were posted for a median of [only] 25 days; compared with a median of [only] 11 days for STEM jobs overall... A large share of job postings, 44%, are taken down within one day... Two-thirds of job postings hang around on the web for [only] 33 days; 20% are up for at least 70 days."
Compare this with average durations of unemployment reported by BLS at 33.8 weeks = 237 days recently (down from over 40 weeks = 280 days within the previous year), and a median duration of unemployment at 13.4 weeks = 94 days (down from roughly 21 weeks = 147 days within the previous year). Note also that while the unemployment rates for lawyers have been running only 40%-50% worse than full employment levels, the unemployment rates for STEM professionals have been running 2 to 3 times the full employment levels...jgo
