This is a '43 Ford N, or there abouts, similar to the one that the Congressman rolled over. They're pretty low and stable. At 73 years of age, he might not have been nimble enough to jump clear of it. No roll bar.... bad outcome. Rest in peace fella.

If this were a private business and not the DOJ, the IRS and FBI would have been at the business site collecting and hauling off evidence a long time ago.
[FOXNEWS] A Michigan court ruled that the state branch of the powerful Service Employees International Union does not have to pay back tens of millions of dollars in dues taken from home health care workers who were forced into unionization.
They stole it fair and square...
The Michigan Court of Appeals ruled last week that the SEIU Healthcare Michigan does not have to pay back more than $34 million in dues collected from over 40,000 home health care workers. Many were forced into the union under state requirements that they join because they were taking care of sick family members at home.
The SEIU successfully lobbied for the plan in multiple states that classified unpaid family members as "home health care workers." Dues were then automatically collected from the care recipients' Medicare or Medicaid checks.
The Court of Appeals ruling was in favor of SEIU Healthcare Michigan's motion to have the case dismissed because the union had paid back dues to Patricia Haynes and Steven Glossop, who had filed suit demanding dues they were forced to pay be returned. The court noted that Haynes and Glossop were paid back more than they requested in their lawsuit.

I guess now that Obama is the new surgeon general He can do as he pleases. His Ebola efforts being one of many interests. Throw in Health and Human services for a little community organizer stuff. Michelle Obama has the Nutrition covered with the help of Bloomberg.
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] Senate nominee Alison Lundergan Grimes has raised a few eyebrows with a recent TV spot. The ad, called "Proud Man," highlights the Kentucky Democrat's grandparents' struggles to pay medical bills after her
During the time period when Grimes' grandparents were struggling with basic necessities, her politically connected father made some hefty campaign donations and oversaw multimillion-dollar business deals.
grandfather's stroke, and criticizes Grimes' opponent, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, for votes he's taken on Medicare.
"His last ten years, he couldn't speak or work," Grimes says of her grandfather in the spot, "and they could barely afford the medicines."
"Our life became something else," Grimes' grandmother says. "No vacations, no retirement."
One hiccup: During the time period when Grimes' grandparents were struggling with basic necessities, her politically connected father made some hefty campaign donations and oversaw multimillion-dollar business deals.
"Grimes comes from a wealthy family," the AP noted in its write-up on the ad. "Her father owns several successful businesses, and records show her family has made political contributions of more than $100,000 over the years."
Per the AP report, a statement from the Grimes campaign said her grandparents "wanted to do it on [their] own" and are proud people.

"her politically connected father made some hefty campaign donations and oversaw multimillion-dollar business deals."
They didn't build that on their own as Obama said.
The Donks can never tell a story straight. Such ads are offensive to good people. FIFY Alison.

DiFi's husband got millions over the years in government contracts:
"...how the husband of powerful Sen. Diane Feinstein, Richard Blum, is feeding at the Postal Service privatization trough. Blum is the chairman of C.B. Richard Ellis (CBRE) which has the exclusive contract to handle sales for the Post Office’s $85 billion of property."

[BREITBART] BuzzFeed reported Thursday that Susan Wismer, the Democratic Party's gubernatorial nominee in South Dakota, has been caught plagiarizing from the already plagiarized jobs plan of the party's Wisconsin gubernatorial nominee, Mary Burke. Wismer also plagiarized from the Democratic Party's gubernatorial nominee in Texas, Wendy Davis.
Until this plagiarism of a plagiarized plan story broke on Thursday, Wismer liked to point out the similarities between herself and Burke of Wisconsin.
On her campaign website, for instance, the lead story in her news section cites an article published in the Washington Post last month, which reported that "Mary Burke made Wisconsin history Tuesday. She and South Dakota's Susan Wismer -- both of them Democrats -- this year became the first women since 1970 and likely ever to secure a major-party nomination for governor in their respective states, according to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University."
Unlike Burke in Wisconsin, who doubled down when her plagiarism was discovered and declared she would proudly leave her jobs plan unchanged, Wismer in South Dakota appeared to display some shame at being caught.

Mary Burke has put a LOT of thought in her #1 priority(!) - economics and jobs. That's why she plagiarized other losing candidates jobs plans verbatim

Democratic party attitude: why waste time figuring out a plan when you can copy one? Doing so you don't even have to read it.

His wreaking crew is still in place. Over at the Instapundit there's a posting about changing the name of DoD back to the old War Department to be 'honest' about what they really do. In a similar vain, they need to change DoJ to the Attorney General's Office cause 'justice' went out the door in 2009 and it's going to be a long time before it's to be seen again in the halls. (not to be confused with the rhetorical 'social justice' which is an Orwellian oxymoron of Newspeak to cover the exercise of power in the dictatorship of the proletariat)

By his own admission, Holder is an "activist Attorney General." In his slobbering, tear-filled resignation speech, Holder gave special recognition to fellow activists and friends Valjar and Soetoro.

Obama and Holder have done tremendous damage to the government with their partisan politics, politicization/weaponization of government agencies, social justice meddling and vote-getting schemes.
Unions such as SEIU have no place in government.
The Department of Homeland Security was created to integrate information from various enforcement and intelligence agencies. That does not seem to be working out.
Perhaps it is time to split off the Secret Service, and Border Patrol, ICE from the DHS and the FBI from the Justice Department. Maybe it is overdue to dissolve the DHS. It would seem that this would improve morale, esprit de corp, and efficiency of many agencies.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
