[Breitbart] Speaking in a radio interview on Sunday, John Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, stated he believes the FBI will "explode" if Hillary Clinton ultimately is not indicted for her email infractions due to what he described as politics triumphing over the legal system.
Bolton was being interviewed for "Aaron Klein Investigative Radio," broadcast on New York’s AM 970 The Answer and Philadelphia’s NewsTalk 990 AM.
Klein, who doubles as Breitbart’s Jerusalem bureau chief and senior investigative reporter, asked Bolton whether he thinks Clinton will ultimately be indicted for allegedly sending classified information over her private email server.
"I think that the pressure is definitely building," Bolton responded. "And just take the politics out of this for a second. What Hillary Clinton and her top aides did is not just make a few small violations of laws to protect classified information. They made wholesale violations and they did it for a sustained, indeed for a four-year period."

...Sadly, no they won't. Although the Bureau may still be marginally more competent, honest, and trustworthy than other Government agencies, they are still a Government agency. The very - VERY - few who quit in protest, if any, will be painted as unreliable malcontents whom the Bureau is better off without.
We have but a short time left. Unless there is an indictment before the end of the primaries, many action by the Bureau will be portrayed as political dirty tricks. And right now I see no indication that's going to happen.

Worse than that Mike.
Those VERY few that quit?
They'll have their taxes audited by the IRS.

However, if things blow up its another agency that the central government can't rely upon to suppress the masses with the glee and abandon that agencies like the IRS enjoy.

And it will stain Obama's legacy forever. It will damage Loretta Lynch's professional reputation...
Depending on which indictments Comey reccomends look for a political rope-a-dope. If Bubba or Syd are even remotely involved check the undercarriage of Barry's Bus.
When and if it comes down to a vote for one of just two candidates in the remaining Republican primaries, a majority may still vote for Ted Cruz, which at this point I think is the far wiser course. In November, like most conservatives I’ll probably hold my nose and vote for whoever is the Republican nominee--unless, of course, she or he is arrested or indicted or springs a private server on us.
But will the so-called establishment do the latter?
...Mostly unmentioned, except for a few bolder Republicans, is the specter that elites and establishment types really will form a third party, stay home, or vote for Hillary Clinton. We can dispense with the triad of choices, because there is only one choice: staying home or forming a third party, despite all the high-minded professions, is a vote for Hillary Clinton, or rather a third term for Barack Obama. And there lies the dilemma that everyone dreads.
So the looming questions for the elite concern whether Godzilla Hillary would be better than King Kong Trump.
...In other words, staying home or voting for a third party will elect the most unethical politician in recent memory, one who stayed out of court or jail only because of her connections and candidacy. Her exemption from indictment in itself will be a stain on the entire judicial system for generations to come.
...Lots of us have contextualized Trump's boorish crudity in the long tradition of American politics. In truth, for all his bombast he is no Wallace segregationist, much less a Hitler-lite brown shirt. His melodramatic excesses are firmly within the Obama or Reagan tradition of bring a gun to a knife fight/get in their faces/punish our enemies and "if it takes a bloodbath, let's get it over with"--only serial rather than episodic.
His quips are or are not as uncouth as those of Ruth Bader Ginsburg on abortion and Eric Holder and Obama on race. When Trump crudely starts talking of the positive aspects of aborting black babies, or referring to whites as "my people," or lamenting that the slain Nicole Simpson might have looked like the second daughter he never had, I'll reconsider that assessment and agree he is racist.
...I imagine that on paper in terms of the economy, taxes, immigration, deficits and debt, Obamacare, Supreme Court appointments, the military, and abortion, the latest incarnation of Trump would be more conservative than the latest incarnation of Clinton. The key in any general election for a conservative is to vote for the more conservative candidate--if his or her character is no worse than the alternative. Sitting out is more principled, but it is a vote nonetheless for the less conservative candidate with as many or more ethical defects.
...I hope the egoist John Kasich drops out as soon as possible. Perhaps in the remaining head-to-head primaries, Trump will lose to Ted Cruz and thus remind Republican voters that he cannot win in such one-on-one elections.
But in the meantime, we should get ready for our Godzilla vs. King Kong decision ahead, and quit talking about sitting out or voting for a third party as anything other than a vote for Hillary Clinton.
2016 really is about the past and the future: the unfortunate past has given us the apparent likelihood of a Trump, and the frightening future may well give us something I fear even worse in Hillary Clinton.
[Breitbart] On the Saturday broadcast of "Justice" on Fox News Channel, host Judge Jeanine Pirro ripped the GOP establishment, accusing them of being "in bed with the Democrats" and trying to "sabotage their own front-runner."
"Why would Republicans try to sabotage their own front-runner and risk a Democrat winning the White House?" Pirro asked herself out loud.
"I keep coming up with the same answer. The Republican establishment, elected officials and party leaders are in bed with the Democrats! If Hillary wins, nothing is lost for them, it’s business as usual," she explained. "The lobbyists keep their offices on K Street. The pharmaceutical companies keep paying them. The unions keep adding to their pensions and the lawmakers get their reelection bribes -- I mean contributions -- while we the underclass have to work two and three jobs; rack up a debt our children and grandchildren are gonna have to pay for generations."
For those who bash Israel, it is axiomatic that Israel is building illegal settlements in Judea and Samaria, otherwise known as the West Bank, against international law.
This is peddled ad nauseam by the EU and the myriad anti-Israel NGOs it funds, and is the basis of the EU’s policy of labeling goods from the "occupied territories."
Yet astoundingly, the EU itself is behind the building of illegal settlements there.
Last year, it announced it was providing âŹ3.5 million to fund infrastructure projects in Area C, the section of the disputed territories under Israeli control.
These settlements, which fly the EU flag and display its logo on their structures, are to be found in more than 40 locations in Area C. According to the Israeli NGO Regavim which maps this activity, between 2012 and 2014 more than 400 of them were constructed within the Adumim area near Jerusalem alone.
Under the Oslo Accords, Area C is administered by Israel. The EU settlements, constructed without Israeli permission and against Israeli zoning laws, are therefore illegal squatter camps.
Israel regularly demolishes these structures.
Last month, the United Nations special coordinator for the Middle East peace process, Nikolay Mladenov, complained to the UN Security Council that, since the beginning of this year, Israel had demolished on average 29 Palestinian-owned structures per week, three times the weekly average for 2015. "These actions run directly counter to the idea of peace," he said.
The EU maintains that it is merely providing humanitarian aid for the Palestinians.
This is clearly disingenuous. The Arabs living in the disputed territories are not living in starvation or destitution, the proper focus of true humanitarian aid.
No, the EU has another objective in mind altogether -- one it barely troubles to conceal.
It is using settlement construction to reshape demographic reality and undermine Israel. As I see it, EU is basically in the business of spreading Tranzi ideology. In particular, (through infinite stupidity/arrogance) it allied itself with Islam against all nation states. The "transformation" of USA proceeds satisfactorily. Russia, the several EU moves having failed---mainly because transformed USA has not been much help (surprise, surprise), is too strong right now. Israel, however, being the very symbol of a nation state is always a high priority (+ nobody likes uppity Jews).
...The biggest potential mistake the Democratic party can make is to imagine that "America's angry year" was created by Trump; that by stopping him they will have won their war. The RAND history survey suggests this is unlikely. It is the long term trends that will be decisive. Elites facing an insurgency often discover the need for strategic patience and solutions only long after their overconfidence has doomed them to defeat.

In the words of Yen Lo in The Manchurian Candidate: "I forget that yours is a young country and your attention spans are short." The self-anointed elites in the US are not even paying attention to what is happening around them. The "angry" ones they cluck their tongues about are living the realities of it all every day.

Yet despite the outward Democratic confidence there are worries that the white voter impis may outflank the firing line.

"the protesters parked their cars in the middle of the road, unfurling banners with anti-Trump slogans and chanting 'Trump is hate.' The disruption caused a lengthy traffic backup, and drivers honked their horns in frustration."

The George Orwell estate is owed a huge royalty check from the Left for providing the manual of their political actions. For the Left there is no intellect, only power.
[Wash Times] An Army general who reached the pinnacle of military intelligence says his service's war-deployed data analytical network is a flop and needs to be stopped, rebuilt and renamed.
Retired Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn, who headed the Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency until 2014 and held a number of terrorist-hunting jobs, is the most senior officer to publicly chastise the Army for how it has clung to the Distributed Common Ground System, or DCGS.
In doing so, Mr. Flynn sides with a number of field commanders who have written blistering internal criticisms of DCGS. Intelligence officers found it slow and susceptible to crashes. During the height of the Afghanistan War, some soldiers parked the hardware off to the side and relied on commercially available Web-linked computers.

Too big to fail. The 'Dristributed Common Ground Station' (DCGS) is the F-35 of the DoD Intelligence Community. No, on second thought, DCGS is probably worse. At least pilots are willing to FLY the F-35.
