McConnell Highlights Hypocrisy of Dems Regarding Comey, Rejects Calls for Special Prosecutor - Breitbart:
"WASHINGTON, D.C.–On Wednesday, following the firing of FBI Director James Comey, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell rejected calls for a special prosecutor or independent commission to investigate the alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during last year’s presidential election.
McConnell chastised Democrats for their hypocrisy and pointed out that they were critical of Comey’s firing after repeatedly knocking his performance while they were trying to get their candidate, Hillary Clinton, elected."

Rewind
Button
By
Tammy Derouin
Struggles,
challenges and disappointments are part of life. If you knew what
was coming, would you even get out of bed? Knowing the future would
probably keep everyone in the nursery with their eyes closed, sucking
their thumbs while waiting to be cuddled. In today's
oversensitive world, sheltering individuals from reality or allowing
them to give up because it's difficult or stressful, is turning the
younger generations into state approved weaklings. Our schools,
universities and cuddling “experts” are an extension of the
preschool nursery.
So
called experts will come right out and tell you they know what is
best. Just because they've rearranged some letters in the
alphabet (and if you're a Kenny Chesney fan, you know where I'm
headed) and stuck them behind their name, doesn't mean they have
god-like powers. Although, if they can convince you that they are
superior, the power shifts in their favor. Fancy talk doesn't
impress me. Gathering facts and seeking the truth is impressive.
Verbal attacks only hurt if you allow them to hurt and opinions are
like bellybuttons. Yeah, I said bellybuttons, everybody has one.
Inevitably,
during difficult times, the thought of an alternate reality will
enter your mind. What would life have been like if different
decisions would have been made? That is truly a subjective thought
because you create an experience in your mind based on feelings and
opinions, not facts. The path not taken would have had its own
challenges, heartaches and disappointments. The outcome will never be
known. However, I see nothing wrong with a temporary "what if"
vacation in the mind when dealing with the difficulties of reality.
Where's the rewind button when you need it?

"Despite the outcry, the police are no longer actively pursuing the case and have dropped it indefinitely.

"Amidst horrible speculations that we are spiraling ever closer to World War 3, there’s a bit of good news.
Whistleblower Chelsea Manning will be released from prison next week.
In one of his final moves as president, Barack Obama commuted Manning’s sentence.
...She was sentenced to 35 years in prison after being convicted in 2013 of stealing 750,000 pages of documents and videos from the US government and military.
At the time, she was a male, and her name was Bradley Manning.
After taking the government’s coveted documents, Manning leaked them to the whistleblower website WikiLeaks.
The government and those on the political right were outraged that a person dared show proof of military crimes committed with American tax dollars, and labeled her a traitor while making fun of her for her transgenderism (gender dysmorphia)..."

In another post made just two minutes after his initial comments, Griffin blasted Republican lawmakers as “a fucking joke,” then turning his attention to their voters, whom he insulted as running “the gamut from monstrous to ignorant.”
- Professor John Griffin even clarified that his words were "not hyperbole," explaining that "blood is on their hands" for passing an Obamacare-replacement bill.
- The professor later apologized for his language after being contacted by Campus Reform, conceding it was "inappropriate."

Why Do Gas Station Prices Constantly Change? Blame the Algorithm - Slashdot
Why Do Gas Station Prices Constantly Change? Blame the Algorithm - Slashdot:
"Retailers are using artificial-intelligence software to set optimal prices, testing textbook theories of competition, says a WSJ report.
An anonymous reader shares the article:
One recent afternoon at a Shell-branded station on the outskirts of this Dutch city, the price of a gallon of unleaded gas started ticking higher, rising more than three-and-a-half cents by closing time.
A little later, a competing station three miles down the road raised its price about the same amount. The two stations are among thousands of companies that use artificial-intelligence software to set prices
In doing so, they are testing a fundamental precept of the market economy. [...]
Advances in AI are allowing retail and wholesale firms to move beyond 'dynamic pricing' software, which has for years helped set prices for fast-moving goods, like airline tickets or flat-screen televisions.
Older pricing software often used simple rules, such as always keeping prices lower than a competitor.
These new systems crunch mountains of historical and real-time data to predict how customers and competitors will react to any price change under different scenarios, giving them an almost superhuman insight into market dynamics.
Programmed to meet a certain goal -- such as boosting sales -- the algorithms constantly update tactics after learning from experience.
Even as the rise of algorithms determining prices poses a challenge to anti-trust law, authorities in the United States and Europe haven't opened probes or accused anyone of impropriety for using AI to set prices."

A Harvard professor claims the lyric could be racist, but a U.K. academic has described the proposal as "morally disoriented."
Harvard takes its name from John Harvard, who emigrated with the Puritans to the United States in the 1600s and left his academic books to the institution after his death."

Higher Education “Gender Gap” Favors Women -- Feminization of Everything Fails Boys | National Review
Higher Education “Gender Gap” Favors Women -- Feminization of Everything Fails Boys | National Review:
"As our society unlearns masculinity and feminizes every stage of male life, boys pay a steep price. Let me share with you two troubling — and, I believe, closely linked — news reports.
In one chart, he highlights the dramatic and growing gender gap in higher education.
In short, women are dominating:
Detailing the findings of a survey conducted by her magazine and the Public Religion Research Institute, she notes that 61 percent of white working-class men view college as a “risky gamble.”
...“The survey shows that many white working-class Americans, especially men, no longer see that path available to them. . . .
It is this sense of economic fatalism, more than just economic hardship, that was the decisive factor in support for Trump among white working-class voters.”
Make no mistake, if these numbers showed an equivalent (and increasing) educational gender gap running in the opposite direction, the feminist Left would declare a cultural emergency.
Indeed, it has declared a cultural emergency in spite of the dominant educational performance of women.
As Perry notes, our colleges are full of “women’s centers” and “gender equity” initiatives that are dedicated exclusively to female success (or almost exclusively; some non-gender-binary folks get gender-equity aid as well).

"It was eight months ago when we first began discussing the “White Hats” -vs- “Black Hats” within the intelligence apparatus.
It was obvious there was a battle going on within the ‘intelligence’ and ‘justice’ systems per se’ between two distinct groups, mostly centered around political leaks within the IC:
- A Black Hat: is a self-serving entity, person or organization, that is corrupt, deceitful, manipulative, exploitative, and working for their own power and interests. A bad entity.
- A White Hat: is an altruistic entity, person or organization, that is foundationally grounded on truth, honesty, and clear definitions of right and moral wrong. A good entity.
The four primary agencies who drove the media narrative were: CIA, DNI, FBI and NSA.
...Initially, last year, FBI Director James Comey was challenging to gauge.
However, it didn’t take long to discover his political corruption, and see his political agenda was all about himself – not the application of law.- The FBI (Comey) never questioned Hillary Clinton under oath.
- The FBI (Comey) never recorded or documented the interview with Hillary Clinton.
- The FBI (Comey) never admitted to warnings from Florida LEO (Orlando shooting)
- The FBI (Comey) used bogus British dossier to gain FISA warrant to monitor Trump.
Then on March 20th the mask fully came off.
Comey was a solid Black Hat.
The March 20th appearance before congress was the final straw in showcasing just how politically corrupt James Comey was.
In this same March 20th hearing Comey stated there was an investigation into intelligence leaks to the media.
However, on May 8th the source of the reports that were eventually leaked to the media, acting AG Sally Yates, said she was never questioned by the FBI..."

A nation of moronic, wimpy, thugs-----School SUSPENDS student for 'liking' Instagram picture OF AN AIR GUN (VIDEO) ⋆ Silence is Consent
School SUSPENDS student for 'liking' Instagram picture OF AN AIR GUN (VIDEO) ⋆ Silence is Consent:
Zachary Bowlin attends Edgewood Middle School in Trenton, Ohio. Last week, while browsing on Instagram, he “liked” a photo of an airsoft pistol.
The caption of the photo said “Ready.”
The next day at school, he was treated like a criminal and told he was suspended.
The official reason was “liking a post on social media that indicated potential school violence.”
Airsoft guns are essentially the next generation of BB guns.
With the exception of the orange-colored tip, the air guns look like many real guns, but use air to shoot plastic pellets.
However, they sometimes use CO2 cartridges and batteries to shoot pellets at high rates of speed.
‘I liked it, scrolling down Instagram at night about 7, 8 o’clock I liked it,’ Zachary told WXIX. ‘The next morning they called me down (to the office) patted me down and checked me for weapons.’He told WCMH, ‘I don’t think I did anything wrong… Then, they told me I was getting expelled or suspended or whatever.’The middle school student was sent home with a note from officials at the school to notify his parents about the cause of his suspension Thursday.The letter said Zachary was suspended for ‘liking a post on social media that indicated potential school violence...’

Another Arctic ice panic over as world temperatures plummet
Another Arctic ice panic over as world temperatures plummet:
"when even satellite temperatures were showing 2016 as “the hottest year on record”, we were going to be told last winter that the Arctic ice was at its lowest extent ever. Sure enough, before Christmas, a report from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was greeted with such headlines as “Hottest Arctic on record triggers massive ice melt”. In March we had the BBC trumpeting another study that blamed vanishing Arctic ice as the cause of weather which led to the worst-ever smog in Beijing, warning that it “could even threaten the Beijing Winter Olympics in 2022”."
