Here’s the Potentially Devastating Move Republicans Might Use to Stop Obama’s Immigration Plans | TheBlaze.com

Here’s the Potentially Devastating Move Republicans Might Use to Stop Obama’s Immigration Plans | TheBlaze.com:

"Republicans in the House and Senate are having active discussions about passing legislation to stop President Barack Obama from acting unilaterally on immigration, as part of a broader bill to fund the federal government.
The talks have occurred even as Obama and GOP leaders have issued warnings to each other on immigration. On Wednesday, Obama said he would move ahead with his executive action, which could create legal status for millions of illegal immigrants, by the end of the year."



Surprise Supreme Court Action Could Destroy Obamacare

Surprise Supreme Court Action Could Destroy Obamacare:

"Reeling from staggering Democrat losses in the midterm elections, the Obama White House has just been served another heaping helping of bad news — word that the U.S. Supreme Court will take a second close and critical look at the constitutionality of ObamaCare.

The announcement from the high court was something of a surprise, as the decision to hear the case was made by the justices without waiting for a split among federal appeals courts."

VIDEO: BOOM! Mia Love Puts the Race and Gender Baiters at CNN in their Place:

"With Mia Loves election to Congress to represent Utah in the House, she did make history by becoming the first black female Republican elected to Congress. But, unlike the Left, who pushed for a Barack Obama presidency in 2008 in order to ‘make history,’ then proceeded to play the race card against anyone who disagreed with his policies, Love’s election was not about her race."

Meanwhile, Europe Is (Still) Burning

Meanwhile, Europe Is (Still) Burning | The American Spectator:
"In case anyone missed it, the sick man of the global economy is getting much sicker. 
And it’s not just “peripheral” economies like Greece asunder in a sea of stagnation. 
Some of the European Union’s biggest players are in serious economic trouble. 

...France hasn’t managed two quarters of consecutive growth since François Hollande became President in May 2012.
Despite promising fiscal constraints, France has engaged in a series of typical and probably extra-legal Eurozone fudges to try and disguise the fact that it has failed again and again to cut its fiscal deficits to a promised 3 percent.
...To France’s southeast, Italy’s unemployment crisis — fueled by a situation of jobs-for-life for some and unstable part-time contracts for others — has entered the realm of high farce.
The country’s youth unemployment rate stands at 42.9 percent, while the overall official unemployment rate is 12.6 percent.
But no one should be surprised.
A recently released World Economic Forum report, for instance, ranked Italy 136 out of 144 economies on labor-market efficiency, just outpacing exemplars of economic success such as Zimbabwe, Iran, Venezuela, and Argentina."

North Korea Reacts to Ebola Pretty Much Exactly the Way You'd Expect North Korea to React to Ebola

North Korea Reacts to Ebola Pretty Much Exactly the Way You'd Expect North Korea to React to Ebola - Hit & Run : Reason.com
Around 30 countries have responded to the Ebola outbreak with travel bans of one kind or another. But one state stands out for the intensity of its response, clamping down on people's movements in ways that might strike even Peter King as excessive.
It's North Korea, of course. The place is located nowhere near the outbreak, and it isn't exactly a destination point for West African tourists, but what is probably the world's most paranoid and xenophobic regime isn't taking any chances. The Washington Post's Anna Fifield reports:
North Korea abruptly told the handful of travel companies bringing western tourists into the country that all tours would be indefinitely suspended. Most have had all their November tours canceled and are waiting to hear about December. The ban also extends to Chinese tourists, who make up the bulk of visitors to Pyongyang, by far.

Then on Thursday, North Korea announced all foreigners—including diplomats, and regardless of where they're coming—arriving in the country will be quarantined for 21 days. That's more than three times the length of the average tour....

But it's not just foreigners who are considered potential carriers of the deadly virus....People wanting to go to Pyongyang on personal business, such as for family events, are being denied entry to the capital, while state officials now have to go through a cumbersome process involving getting an epidemiological certificate from the provincial quarantine office, the site reported.

McConnell: Bet on more IRS hearings | WashingtonExaminer.com:

"The senator, who easily defeated his Democratic challenger this week by about 17 points, promised during a press conference on Wednesday that he and his colleagues would continue to hold hearings on the scandal.

McConnell’s remarks were prompted by a reporter who asked: “Will there be hearings on the IRS?”

The Kentucky senator responded immediately and without missing a beat: “Oh, you can bet on that.”

Climate change supporters suffer losses

Climate change supporters suffer losses | TheHill
Despite millions spent to make climate change a wedge issue during the midterms, environmentally friendly candidates didn’t fare well on Election Day.
Green groups funneled an unprecedented amount of money into top Senate races that determined control of the upper chamber but fell short.
The nation’s top environmental groups including the League of Conservation Voters, the Sierra Club, the Environmental Defense Fund, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and billionaire Tom Steyer’s NextGen Climate spent at least $85 million on six Senate races.
Out of those six races, only two candidates willing to take action on climate change won their races.
In Michigan, Rep. Gary Peters (D) won, and in New Hampshire Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D) held on to her seat. But Republicans picked up crucial Senate seats in Colorado, Iowa and North Carolina. 
The results are still out for the final Senate race greens collectively spent on, Sen. Mark Begich’s (D) reelection bid in Alaska. 
“Despite the climate movement’s significant investments and an unprecedented get-out-the-vote program, strong voices for climate action were defeated, and candidates paid for by corporate interests and bolstered by sinister voter suppression tactics won the day,” Michael Brune, executive director of the Sierra Club, said on Wednesday. 

‘Not a Smidgen of Corruption’: IRS Forced to Admit They Never Even Looked for Lerner’s ‘Missing’ Emails

‘Not a Smidgen of Corruption’: IRS Forced to Admit They Never Even Looked for Lerner’s ‘Missing’ Emails:

"When it comes to scandals, the Obama Administration maintains a strict policy of denial mixed with a level of stonewalling that truly boggles the mind. Not only has this administration plainly denied the existence of a political vendetta by the IRS, but when finally forced to admit that such improprieties existed, this administration has maintained that there is not “a smidgen” of corruption to be found.

It can’t be found because they’re not looking…"

Food Stamps Crisis Ignored in Nearly 98% of Network Stories

Food Stamps Crisis Ignored in Nearly 98% of Network Stories | Media Research Center:
"The American food stamps program has experienced “unprecedented” and “unsustainable” growth under President Barack Obama according to experts, but the broadcast news media have virtually ignored this bad news this election year.
The three broadcast networks would rather not remind voters that a record number of Americans received food stamps under the Obama presidency, or that more than 46 million Americans have been on food stamps for 35 straight months. 
While Obama has said that “every single one” of his policies is “on the ballot” this fall, the media have worked hard to protect him from bad news, especially if there can be any connection."

After Claiming No Money for Ebola Vaccine, NIH Awards $31 Million 'Diversity' Grant

After Claiming No Money for Ebola Vaccine, NIH Awards $31 Million 'Diversity' Grant | National Review Online:
"As last month’s Ebola hysteria tightened its grip on the United States, National Institutes of Health director Francis Collins publicly blamed a lack of congressional funding for the global health crisis. “Frankly, if we had not gone through our 10-year slide in research support, we probably would have had a vaccine in time for this that would’ve gone through clinical trials and would have been ready.”

National Review Online disputed that claim, pointing out that funding never really “slid” and that the NIH routinely spent gobs of money on pointless pet projects.
And, apparently, it continues to do so.
Late last month, the NIH announced that it will grant $31 million to “enhance diversity in the medical research workforce.” 
The five-year program is expected to support 50 awardees from “underrepresented” backgrounds in the science and research fields."

What Does Societal Collapse and Martial Law Look Like?

What Does Societal Collapse and Martial Law Look Like? | The Daily Sheeple
The United States is staring an economic collapse in the face with its $17 trillion dollar deficit, $238 trillion dollars of unfunded mandates (e.g. social security, Medicare, etc.) and a one quadrillion dollar derivatives debt in which the governments of the world are being forced to assume in the form of the “bailouts”.
Even if Obama and his bankster puppet masters never had any intention of executing a false flag event in order to put this country into martial law in order to fully complete the coup d’état that is already underway, a crash is coming.
The banks are going to collapse, the people will riot, there will be food shortages, whether they be planned or unplanned.
I do, however, believe that food will undoubtedly be used to control the unruly masses, despite the DHS and their new found friends in the Chinese and Russian personnel which are on our soil.
Are you prepared? 
At the bottom of this article, I will visually demonstrate to the reader with real time examples of human behavior in groups, how each of us are going to be in very grave danger when the collapse comes. 
But first, let’s analyze America’s present level of individual and collective preparedness.

How Prepared Is America?

The Adelphi University research center tells us that 53% of all Americans do not have a three day supply of nonperishable food and water in their homes.
FEMA and DHS are not about serving the needs of the American people; These agencies are about preserving the status quo of the powers that be.
But don’t try and tell that to 55% of the citizens of this country.

Free government healthcare at its "best"-----Additional findings from federal review of Muskegon Family Care highlight inconsistencies, documentation problems

Additional findings from federal review of Muskegon Family Care highlight inconsistencies, documentation problems | MLive.com

MUSKEGON HEIGHTS, MI — After several interviews and examining more than two dozen types of documents, the Health Resources & Services Administration this year outlined numerous financial and operational concerns it had about Muskegon Family Care.
The report, obtained by MLive Muskegon Chronicle in October under the Freedom of Information Act, found that the federally qualified health center failed to properly track grant funds it receives under section 330 of the Public Health Service Act. 
The document also revealed that Muskegon Family Care lost $153,939 after planning an unsuccessful celebrity fundraiser and golf tournament at the Muskegon Country Club.
The federal agency compiled the findings after its Division of Financial Integrity visited the site, located at 2201 S. Getty St. in Muskegon Heights, in January.   
The integrity team's "limited scope review" report also affirmed observations made by the agency's Bureau of Primary Health Care representatives months earlier in August 2013.

Justice Department Seeks ‘Quiet’ Expansion to Search Warrant Power

Justice Department Seeks ‘Quiet’ Expansion to Search Warrant Power | TheBlaze.com:
"The Justice Department’s plan to expand its authority would allow it to more easily track and investigate suspects who are using technology to hide their locations or identities.
However, legal researchers like Ahmed Ghappour, a computer law professor at the University of California’s Hastings college of law, says the Justice Department’s request would be unconstitutional under the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable search and seizure."
