Did Wikileaks just uncover Clinton’s mole within the DOJ?
Did Wikileaks just uncover Clinton’s mole within the DOJ?:
"Today’s 25th installment of the WikiLeaks emails contained a blockbuster. The assistant attorney general for congressional relations, Peter Kadzik, used his Gmail account to inform John Podesta of next steps in the DOJ Clinton email investigation. Kadzik is now reportedly heading up the “review” of documents and emails seized from Anthony Weiner’s computer.
Here’s what the May 19, 2015 email from Kadzik said:"

Leftist Academia: Democrats Rule, Trend Is Increasing
Leftist Academia: Democrats Rule, Trend Is Increasing | National Review
"A new academic study reveals left-wing dominance of top university faculties around the country — that’s not news.
However, the study, published in Econ Journal Watch, also suggests that the dominance is likely to grow even stronger.
For professors younger than 36, the ratio of registered Democrats to Republicans was an astonishing 22.7 to 1 at 40 top universities.
The study sampled professors across the fields of economics, history, communications, law, and psychology, using information from Voter Lists Online’s Aristotle database.
“We found that younger faculty have higher [Democrat to Republican] ratios than do older faculty,” said Mitchell Langbert and Daniel Klein, two of the study’s three authors (Anthony Quain in the third).
“The trend will continue.”
Moreover, the political registration of assistant professors is the most imbalanced of all categories, with a Democrat to Republican ratio of 19.3 to 1.
Emeritus professors’ registrations are the least skewed at 8.6 to 1.
These statistics suggest that top universities will only become less politically diverse as older professors retire and younger professors take over the commanding heights of their institutions. Among all professors, the study found a Democrat to Republican to ratio of 11.5 to 1.
Broken down by field, the results are even more depressing.
Top history departments have a ratio of 33.5 to 1.
Journalism and psychology are also extremely lacking in intellectual diversity, with ratios of 20 to 1 and 17.4 to 1, respectively.
Law schools have a ratio of 8.6 to 1, while economics departments are the least skewed, at 4.5 to 1. Hearing both sides of an argument is essential to learning and forming opinions.
“One-sided ideological orientation leads to one-sided teaching, which leads to intolerance of alternative views,” write Langbert and Klein in an e-mail to me.
“The ability to disagree requires practice, but neither students nor their professors practice balanced disagreement in universities, because faculty meetings are increasingly held in halls of mirrors...”

Obama’s IRS Has Never Stopped Targeting Conservatives
Obama’s IRS Has Never Stopped Targeting Conservatives:
"Those who cultivated the scandal by pressuring ideological allies inside the IRS shrugged and moved on. Those within the agency lawyered up, pled the Fifth, and moved on. Those defending the IRS in court engaged in unconscionable dilatory tactics that continue today. New faces replaced old and nothing changed. That the government’s most feared agency had blatantly discriminated against the president’s ideological foes was declared history."
LAWSUIT: BYU expelled, retaliated against student falsely accused of sexual harassment
LAWSUIT: BYU expelled, retaliated against student falsely accused of sexual harassment - The College Fix:
Less than a week after Brigham Young University said it would stop investigating alleged rape victims for drinking and premarital sex, it was hit with a lawsuit by a former student who said he’s the victim of anti-male bias.
The Mormon institution expelled and retaliated against the unnamed Kenyan man following an almost comically large list of charges against him – not just sexual harassment but plagiarism, admissions fraud and other Honor Code violations, The Deseret News reports. (The newspaper is owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.)
Less than a week after Brigham Young University said it would stop investigating alleged rape victims for drinking and premarital sex, it was hit with a lawsuit by a former student who said he’s the victim of anti-male bias.
The lawsuit asks for $3 million in damages against BYU, saying the school defamed him by sharing his misleading record with Utah Valley University and Auburn University:
He lost jobs at both schools and Auburn expelled him from a doctoral program last year, according to the suit.
The man said BYU administrators favored his female accusers “to shield themselves from accusations that they fail to protect women from sexual assault,” and denied him due process.
His lawyer called the allegations “scurrilous.”

Farragut student suspended for extra chicken nugget
Farragut student suspended for extra chicken nugget
The suspension was rescinded on Tuesday morning after Waller sent a letter to several school administrators and spoke to Farragut Principal Ryan Siebe on the phone.
"Justice has been served for a Farragut High School student after his suspension for buying an extra chicken nugget in the lunch line was overturned.
Carson Koller received the one-day suspension on Monday for buying the extra nugget.
Koller — a senior, Eagle Scout and the captain of the band's drum line — was suspended for theft of property after he took six chicken nuggets from the lunch line instead of the usual five, to his mother's outrage.
"How is it theft if he paid for it?" Koller's mother, Carrie Koller Waller, wrote in a Facebook post. "It's food. FOOD!!! Not weapons. Not drugs. Not alcohol. Not cheating on a test. ... I am shaking my head over this and not sure what to do. Laugh, punish, argue, dress him up as a nugget bandit, or let it go."
"I know it wasn't your intent to overcharge Carson and I know it was not my son's intent to steal an extra nugget from you," Waller wrote in the letter, which she posted to Facebook. "He was hungry. He took six total nuggets. He entered his number, and the cashier rang him up. The cashier then realized Carson had more food than what she calculated. He entered his number again and paid the additional charge. Everything on his tray was paid for prior to walking away. He was then asked for his name and told to sit in another area and speak to the principal."
School officials initially said Koller had stolen the nugget, but a screenshot posted by Waller on Facebook showed her son had been charged three times for the lunch — one extra lunch charge of $2.75, one lunch entree charge of $2.50, and another charge of $2.75.

Video held for 4 months?!!-----Brutal sucker-punch leads to man’s death
Brutal sucker-punch leads to man’s death | New York Post
By Daniel Prendergast, Kenneth Garger and Natalie Musumeci
"Newly released disturbing surveillance video showing a vicious sucker-punch that led to the death of a 64-year-old man in Queens.
Patrick Gorman was walking near the corner of Queens Boulevard and Main Street in Briarwood when he bumped into the attacker’s girlfriend just after midnight on June 26, cop sources said.
“Excuse me,” Gorman said, before the man belted him in the face, sources said.
The video shows the (BLACK) male suspect punching Gorman, who is seen falling squarely on his back as the duo calmly ambles off.
The victim tries to get back on his feet and then collapses.
Gorman was taken to Jamaica Hospital, where he died the next day at about 9 a.m., police said.

Allegiant Air's Planes Are 4 Times More Likely to Fail
In a stunning and comprehensive report, the Tampa Bay Times has uncovered systemic mechanical problems on Allegiant Air’s planes.
The Times states that its investigation, “which included a first-of-its kind analysis of federal aviation records—has found that the budget carrier’s planes are four times as likely to fail during flight as those operated by other major U.S. airlines.”
- “Forty-two of Allegiant’s 86 planes broke down in mid-flight at least once in 2015. Among them were 15 forced to land by failing engines, nine by overheating tail compartments and six by smoke or the smell of something burning.”
- “Eighteen times last year, key parts such as engines, sensors and electronics failed once in flight, got checked out, and then failed again, causing another unexpected landing.”
- “Allegiant relies most heavily on McDonnell Douglas MD-80s, an aging model retired by all but two other major U.S. carriers. The company’s MD-80s fail twice as often as those operated by American Airlines and three times as often as those flown by Delta.”
According to the Times, Allegiant officials initially declined to comment on the story, and in fact had remained mostly silent as anecdotal evidence of the airline’s woeful safety record accumulated. But when the Times presented Allegiant with its findings, they agreed to talk and, ultimately, acknowledged that change is needed.
“I can’t sit here and say that you’re wrong,” Allegiant CEO Maurice Gallagher Jr. told the Times. “We’re very much focused on running a better operation...”
Attorney General is SUED to come clean on secret meeting with Bill Clinton | Daily Mail Online

'Eco Sexuals' Boast of Masturbating Under Waterfalls and F**king Trees To Save The Planet
"Liberals wanting a new way to define their sexuality and signal their green virtues can now combine the two: 2016, already seen by many as the year the world went mad, is likely also to be remembered as the year the world was gifted ‘ecosexuality’.
"Liberals wanting a new way to define their sexuality and signal their green virtues can now combine the two: 2016, already seen by many as the year the world went mad, is likely also to be remembered as the year the world was gifted ‘ecosexuality’.
An attempt to catalogue all the sexualities listed on Tumblr earlier this year identified 80 different varieties including “Neu: feeling attraction towards people who are genderless”; “Iculasexual: being asexual but open to having sex” and even “Pre: a placeholder term for someone who doesn’t think they’ve experienced enough attraction to know their orientation.”
‘Ecosexual’ was not among them. Yet it’s likely to be a short-lived oversight as the movement goes from strength to strength: more than 100,000 people worldwide are now said to be identifying as ecosexual.
Amanda Morgan, a faculty member at the UNLV School of Community Health Sciences who is involved in the ecosexual movement, told Vice that ecosexuality could be measured along a spectrum not unlike the Kinsey Scale..."

E-mails, records show maneuvering in demolition deals
"One month before the Detroit Land Bank Authority released an audit detailing an improper billing scheme involving some demolition contractors, Timothy Drakeford signed an affidavit saying he was directed by Aradondo Haskins, a former Detroit Building Authority employee, to adjust his demolition prices.
The Free Press obtained the affidavit and related e-mails Tuesday through a Freedom of Information Act request.
The records shed new light on aspects of the city’s demolition program, which is under federal investigation, and its apparent bidding practices.
...The Land Bank audit, released last week, is the latest complication for Detroit’s troubled blight demolition program, which is under a federal criminal investigation.
Questions about Mayor Mike Duggan’s demolition program began swirling a year ago after it was revealed costs had risen more than 60%.
...More than $250 million from the federal Hardest Hit Fund has been allocated to Detroit for its demolition program.
The money has helped the city tear down more than 10,000 blighted properties since Duggan took office in 2014.
In addition to the federal probe of the program, the Michigan State Housing Development Authority is conducting its own investigation.
...The U.S. Treasury Department suspended the city demolition program between August and October of this year after discovering problems with how federal money was spent in Detroit..."

Who Owns All This Student Debt?
Most student debt is owed to the federal government. The federal government offers student loans with fixed interest rates and flexible repayment plans. As of March 2016, more than 92% of all student debt was owed to the federal government. Perhaps surprisingly, only 8% was owed to private financial institutions.

Linda Tripp: The Colossal Clinton Con: "She’s finally done it.
The country faces a possible constitutional crisis should Hillary win the election.
With a federal criminal investigation of the possible president-elect underway, President Obama might well issue a preemptive presidential pardon on his way out the door. Imagine that.
Pardoned before inaugurated.
Or she will find a way to pardon herself for “the good of the country.”
It will simply never end.
If the past portends the future, we should ponder that which came before.
The tale of four partners of the Rose Law Firm in Little Rock, Arkansas is a good place to start.
They came to Washington, DC with Bill Clinton in 1993.
You couldn’t turn a corner in the West Wing without bumping into one or all of them.
- Webster Hubbell became Associate Attorney General of the United States. He ended up in a federal pen.
- Vince Foster became Deputy Counsel to the President and he was found dead by gunshot in Fort Marcy Park.
- Bill Kennedy became an Associate White House Counsel and was neck deep in Filegate and Travelgate. He also oversaw the ubiquitous Craig Livingstone, the former bar bouncer personally chosen by the First Lady to head the Office of White House Security.
- Together, Bill Kennedy and Craig Livingstone were the ones to officially identify the body of Vince Foster.
I knew them all.
Of the four partners, only one is left standing.
She is currently running for president of the United States.
I am struck by the “none so blind as those who will not see” syndrome..."
