FCC Chairman Pai Cuts Obamaphone Waste, Fraud, And Abuse
FCC Chairman Pai Cuts Obamaphone Waste, Fraud, And Abuse - Breitbart:
"A Republican FCC hopes to revamp the infamous “Obamaphone” program to provide low-income Americans phone and internet service.
FCC Chairman Ajit Pai already put the program, known as Lifeline, under review.
He revoked nine providers from participating the program, saying that they need further review.
Chairman Ajit Pai and Republicans in Congress argue that the program needs reform, including setting a limited budget of $1.5 billion to cut waste and abuse within the program.
Pai said, “A budget induces careful spending.”
Previous bills in Congress have capped the budget at $1.5 billion.
Pai and fellow Republican FCC Commissioner Michael O’Reilly support the idea. House Energy and Commerce telecommunications subcommittee Chairwoman Marsha Blackburn wrote in an op-ed with O’Reilly, “The program must be better targeted to eligible low-income individuals who would not otherwise sign up for service.”
Not only does the FCC want to provide better service to every American, but Pai also wants to curtail waste, fraud, abuse in the Obamaphone program.
Ajit Pai has been a vocal critic of the Lifeline program, even accusing other FCC Commissioners of trying to keep a $51 million fraud investigation quiet..."

Fed-up cop blows whistle on immigrant crime
Fed-up cop blows whistle on immigrant crime:
"“Here we go; this is what I’ve handled from Monday-Friday this week: rape, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, rape-assault and rape, extortion, blackmail, assault, violence against police, threats to police, drug crime, drugs, crime, felony, attempted murder, rape again, extortion again and ill-treatment,” Officer Peter Springare posted.
“Suspected perpetrators: Ali Mohamad, Mahmod, Mohammed, Mohammed, Ali, again, again, again, Christoffer … what, is it true? Yes, a Swedish name sneaked its way in on the fringes of a drug-related crime, Mohammed, Mahmod Ali, again and again."

72 Convicted Terrorists Came From Trump Travel Ban Countries | The Daily Caller
72 Convicted Terrorists Came From Trump Travel Ban Countries | The Daily Caller:
"“A review of information compiled by a Senate committee in 2016 reveals that 72 individuals from the seven countries covered in President Trump’s vetting executive order have been convicted in terror cases since the 9/11 attacks,” writes CIS researcher Jessica Vaughn.
“These facts stand in stark contrast to the assertions by the Ninth Circuit judges who have blocked the president’s order on the basis that there is no evidence showing a risk to the United States in allowing aliens from these seven terror-associated countries to come in.”"

GREAT IDEA! Liberal Site Proposes Cancelling The Academy Awards To Protest Trump – American Lookout:

What a great idea!
Cancel the Oscars
"President Donald Trump’s new immigration order — the one many have labeled a “Muslim ban” because it temporarily bars entry to the US for natives of seven Muslim-majority countries — stops people associated with various Oscar-nominated films from attending the 2017 Academy Awards.
That’s just one reason the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences should cancel its annual ceremony and instead announce the winners via press release..."

A Maniac Is Running Our Foreign Policy! (It's Not Trump)
A Maniac Is Running Our Foreign Policy! (It's Not Trump) | Human Events
"If only we were able to deport citizens, we could use Trump’s new policy of excluding those who are “hostile” toward our country to get rid of Judge James Robart.
Judge Robart’s veto of Trump’s travel ban notwithstanding, there is not the slightest question but that the president, in his sole discretion, can choose to admit or exclude any foreigners he likes, based on “the interests of the United States.”
The Clinton administration used the executive branch’s broad power over immigration to send a 6-year-old boy back to a communist dictatorship.
The courts were completely powerless to stop him.
As explained by the federal appellate court that ruled on Elian Gonzalez’s asylum application: “It is the duty of the Congress and of the executive branch to exercise political will,” and “in no context is the executive branch entitled to more deference than in the context of foreign affairs,” which includes immigration.
The court acknowledged that Elian might well be subjected to “re-education,” “communist indoctrination” and “political manipulation.”
(Then again, so would enrolling him at Sidwell Friends.)
It didn’t matter!
Sending little boys back to communist dictatorships was the policy of the Clinton administration.
The Obama administration’s immigration policy was to ensure that millions of poverty-stricken foreigners would come here and help turn our country into a Mexican version of Pakistan..."

After Chelsea's lavish wedding, scraps of cake were sent to the starving children of Haiti as a gift of thanks for their help in making her special day so much more special.
One of the highlights of Chelsea's $5million wedding was the $11,000.00 wedding cake.
Sadly, none of the Haitian children were able to attend due to schedule conflicts.
We are told, however, that generous leftover portions were sent to Haiti shortly after the reception."

14 Freeloaders ARRESTED for $16 MILLION in Welfare Fraud, Then Everyone Saw Their Names And Were SHOCKED! ⋆ Freedom Daily
14 Freeloaders ARRESTED for $16 MILLION in Welfare Fraud, Then Everyone Saw Their Names And Were SHOCKED! ⋆ Freedom Daily:
"More than a dozen retail store operators in and around Baltimore have been charged in connection to a huge food stamp and wire fraud scheme.
The indictments allege the retailers received more than $16 million in federal payments for transactions in which they did not provide any food, a fraud scheme commonly known as “food stamp trafficking.”
As a result these transactions, they allegedly obtained more than $16,482,270 in EBT deposits for transactions in which food sales never occurred or were substantially inflated and split the proceeds with food stamp recipients.
Here are some of the names of the defendants:"

More fake news from the MSM-----No, Fukushima Isn't Suddenly Murdering the Pacific
No, Fukushima Isn't Suddenly Murdering the Pacific:
"I blame 1950s B-movies: sixty years later, it appears that most of what journalists know about radioactivity came from watching Godzilla.
So what have we learned today?
"I blame 1950s B-movies: sixty years later, it appears that most of what journalists know about radioactivity came from watching Godzilla.
On February 8, Adam Housley of Fox News reported a story with a terrifying headline: "Radiation at Japan's Fukushima Reactor Is Now at 'Unimaginable' Levels."
Let's just pick up the most exciting paragraphs:
The radiation levels at Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant are now at "unimaginable" levels.
[Housley] said the radiation levels -- as high as 530 sieverts per hour -- are now the highest they've been since 2011 when a tsunami hit the coastal reactor."To put this in very simple terms. Four sieverts can kill a handful of people," he explained.
The degree to which this story is misleading is amazing, but to explain it, we need a little bit of a tutorial.
...While we're here, let's look at Housley's other attempt at a factual statement:
"The worry is with 300 tons of radioactive water going into the Pacific every day, what is that doing to the Pacific Ocean?" said Housley.
This, at least, is something we can evaluate.
...What does this mean?
Well, the U.S. EPA safety standard for tritium in drinking water sets an upper limit of 740 Bq/liter.
Basically, you wouldn't want to drink it, right there at the outflow into the Pacific, for any extended length of time -- although it probably wouldn't hurt you.
You could swim in it, though.
So what have we learned today?
We learned that inside the reactor containment at Fukushima Daini, site of the post-tsunami reactor accident, it's very very radioactive.
How radioactive?
We don't know, because the dose rate has been reported in inappropriate units -- Sieverts are only meaningful if someone is inside the reactor to get dosed.
Then we learned that the Fukushima accident is leaking 300 tons of radioactive water -- but until we dig into primary sources, we didn't learn the radioactive water is very nearly clean enough to be drinking water.
So what effect does this have on the ocean, as Housley asks?
None.
The third thing we learned -- and I think probably the most important thing -- is to never trust a journalist writing about anything involving radiation, the metric system, or any arithmetic more challenging than long division."

Fox’s Judge Napolitano: Court Ruling Was ‘Intellectually Dishonest Piece of Work’ | Mediaite:
"Fox’s Judge Andrew Napolitano had some particularly strong words for the court ruling to uphold the block on President Trump‘s travel ban.
He said they “inadequately addressed the primacy of the presidency when it comes to establishing foreign policy” and instead “stayed in the weeds on the rules.”
Napolitano said some of the president’s criticisms are “well-grounded” and made this observation a little later:"
