[Daily Caller] Obama had been in town to tape his segment for “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.” (VIDEO: Obama Tells Fallon — Presidency Is A ‘Serious Job … Not Reality TV’)
The biker was seen being handcuffed in the video and reportedly received a summons for disorderly conduct.
[Mail] OOPS: White House press secretary Josh Earnest said Thursday that President Obama won't interfere with 'any criminal investigation' like the one Hillary Clinton faces over classified documents in her private emails

The path to deflect Hillary May be emerging, as Cheryl Mills begins to look like road kill and the option of a pardon for her and lifetime of fat employment after the pardon dangles. If she takes the bait, she should consider how often tragic accidents seem to follow post-deal Clintonian synchophants.
[LI] At the same time, he asked Congress for $1.8 billion in funding for the resources to combat the Zika virus, the pathogen spreading rapidly through the Americas that can cause birth defects and neurological problems. In a rare display of fiscal restraint, Congress granted $622 million (mainly from unused Ebola response money). Yes, Bernardo. Five hundred million U.S. dollars.
However, as negotiations continue for even more Zika funding between these two branches of government, it seems that $500 million of those taxpayer dollars initially allotted now sits in the coffers of the United Nations.
The Obama administration siphoned $500 million that could have gone toward combating the Zika virus into a United Nations effort aimed at mitigating climate change.
Sen. James Lankford (R., Okla.) wrote in an op-ed published in the Daily Signal that the Senate last year granted Obama the authority to pay for a response to Zika, but his administration chose instead to allocate those funds toward the U.N.'s Green Climate Fund.

No doubt the funding diversion was justified by saying fighting global warming fights mosquitos fights Zika, so they are complying with what Congress granted the money for.
Big huge Daily Mail article. Here are the lowhighlights:
Bill Clinton's lover - before and AFTER his marriage - tells how 'lumpy' Hillary with her 'fat ankles and hair on her toes' schemed to get her to LIE on 60 Minutes about Bill's other affairs
'There appears to be no limit to what Hillary will do to destroy her perceived enemies,' Dolly Kyle writes in her new bombshell book
Kyle began sleeping with Bill Clinton after high school and their affair didn't end until he moved to the White House
'Billy was a sex addict; I was a codependent,' she admits in memoir that rips the lid off the power couple
Bill was undone by Wilt Chamberlain's claim to have slept with 20,000 women - That's ten times more than I've had!' he told Dolly
Dolly says Bill told her he and Hillary - who he called 'The Warden' -needed to have a baby 'so we can appear to be a normal couple'
'We need to do something serious to take attention off the Warden's lifestyle,' Bill said and Dolly suggested he sleep with Hillary Drastic times . . . ."
When Dolly met Hillary - May 28, 1974 - she wore a 'misshapen, brown, dress-like thing that must have been intended to hide her lumpy body'
The garment 'stopped too soon to hide her fat ankles and her thick calves covered with black hair'
'Thick brown sandals did nothing to conceal her wide feet and the hair on her toes,' Dolly said, adding that she was embarrassed and staring I recall Huma saying something like how she thought Hillary was beautiful. I guess that explains why she might marry Weiner.
[WEEKLYSTANDARD] The Department of Veterans' Affairs fired three bigwigs from the Phoenix VA health care system Wednesday, marking the first dismissals linked to the mismanagement in Arizona since the system's director was ousted in November 2014.
Associate director Lance Robinson, chief of Health Administration Service Brad Curry, and hospital chief of staff Dr. Darren Deering were all removed for negligent performance and failure to provide effective oversight for properly scheduled appointments, according to a news release from the department.
"We have an obligation to Veterans and the American people to take appropriate accountability actions as supported by evidence," Deputy Secretary Sloan Gibson said. "While this process took far too long, the evidence supports these removals and sets the stage for moving forward."
The VA proposed the staffers' termination in March, and Wednesday's announcement formalized the dismissals.
"Deputy Secretary Gibson is correct in saying the process took 'far too long'," said Republican congressman Jeff Miller, the chairman of the House committee on veterans' affairs, in a statement.

Just be sure they get their bonuses and pensions.
[Guardian] Senator Elizabeth Warren has declared herself ready to be Hillary Clinton’s running mate in the US presidential election.
The Massachusetts senator ‐ popular among the progressive wing of the Democratic party ‐ made the declaration shortly after endorsing Clinton, calling her "a fighter with guts" who would keep Donald Trump out the White House.
In an interview on MSNBC, Warren was asked by Rachel Maddow: "If you were asked to be Secretary Clinton’s running mate, do you believe you could do it?"
Her response was concise: "Yes, I do."
In another interview with the Boston Globe on Thursday, Warren endorsed Clinton as the party’s presidential nominee, saying: "I’m ready to jump in this fight and make sure that Hillary Clinton is the next president of the United States and be sure that Donald Trump gets nowhere near the White House."
[Dhaka Tribune] US President Barack Obama formally endorsed fellow Democrat Hillary Clinton for president on Thursday, describing himself as eager to get out and campaign for her, days after she gained the delegates needed to secure the party's White House nomination. One would think that the first presidential candidate to be the principal of a lengthy FBI investigation in the run-up to a national election might justify caution and pause, but no, political ideology trumps the hand of justice.

political ideology trumps the hand of justice.
It's not political ideology. It's desire for the use of the apparatus of state to guarantee money and status. Most of the people who will vote for Hillary Clinton are apolitical, they just have the ability to see which side their bread is buttered on.

Consider the case of fellow Democrat poltician Alcee Hastings? Impeached Judge and "Representative for Life" in a safe district.

So Obean endorses Hillary and then he later meets with Bernie Sanders and also meets with Loretta Lynch of DOJ. Shortly after endorsing Hillary Clinton, Josh Ernest, the WH Press Secretary goes to the podium and says the FBI email investigation is a criminal investigation. Meanwhile, the few dribs and drabs that have appeared in the press suggest the email fiasco is far worse than people thought. Is Obean trying to protect his backside?

E mails implicate O. Hillary has him over a barrel. Correspondence occurred. The fix is in. They will never drag O down. The FBI will be forced to make a sacrifice within their department at most.
