[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] Two weeks after a U.S. congressman and four others were shot during a baseball practice in a Washington suburb by a man with a history of lashing out at Republicans, a Florida politician decided he wasn’t taking any chances.
So Sunday, after someone threatened his life on a Facebook page, state Rep. Jose Felix Diaz, R-Miami, informed police.
And on Monday, Northwest Miami-Dade resident Steve St. Felix, 34, was jugged Drop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! and charged with written threats with intent to do bodily injury. Police said St. Felix was "fed up" with the Republican Party -- and that he hadn’t taken his meds when he posted the threat. It’s unclear what condition the medications were treating.
The threat -- "I’ll kill your ass and you better not show up to the next REC meeting" -- was quickly removed from the Facebook page, police said. It appeared to refer to the Republican Executive Committee, the name of the local Miami-Dade County GOP.

Strange how guys like Hodgkinson and St. Felix nearly always seem compelled to post threats on Facebook.

At least the police are taking this serious now. Las year Obama would have stopped sent the IRS and media after the cops for stifling the first amendment rights of the people making threats.

Even crazies have their rules.
[American Thinker] "The road to hell is paved with good intentions," goes the line so often used to describe hare-brained liberal schemes. That vintage phrase captures perfectly the quagmire in which Bernie and Jane Sanders find themselves rapidly sinking in the saga of Burlington College. But the tale provides so much more than affirming that age-old aphorism. It offers a microcosmic view into the mind and methodology of liberal policymakers everywhere.
In short, the scheme concocted by the former Democratic Socialist presidential candidate's wife, Jane Sanders, when she was president of Burlington College serves up everything we've come to expect of modern Democrats: delusional visions of glorious benefits to be realized by the masses if we follow their screwball ideas; a shady real estate deal; phony and fraudulent claims used as the basis for getting other people to part with their money; alleged pressure from a powerful Democratic politician on a government-regulated institution to go along with their idea, or else; and, of course, no modern Democratic scandal is complete without a computer server potentially figuring in ‐ in this case, a stolen one. The only thing missing is the sex. But the investigation is still young.
Anyway, here's the backstory. The board of a tiny New England college in Vermont, Burlington College, in the town where Bernie Sanders used to be mayor before he rose to lofty heights in the Senate and then the socialist precincts of the national Democratic Party, had the notion of hiring Bernie's wife to be their esteemed college's new president in 2004. What qualified her for the job? Who knows, but I'm sure being married to the then-U.S. congressman from Vermont and the town's former mayor didn't hurt. The mayoralty, by the way, was Bernie's first steady job. Before that, he literally couldn't feed his family.

Bernie wasn't the candidate that the young lefties (those star-eyed idealists who elected Obummer) thought he was? Has buyer's remorse set in yet for Obummer and Bernie? Feel like ya got duped?
[TownHall] Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill (Mo.) used a personal foundation to pay for a dinner she attended at Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak's Washington, D.C., residence. The senator had failed to disclose her role in the foundation until earlier this month. McCaskill's attendance at the dinner was accompanied by an $873 payment to the American-Russian Cultural Cooperation Foundation, where Kislyak serves on its board of directors as honorary chairman...The payment to Kislyak's foundation was not made directly by McCaskill--it was made through a foundation, the Shepard Family Foundation, that she set up with her husband Jon Shepard in 2013 but failed to disclose in filings to the Senate ethics committee until three weeks ago. The sudden disclosure of McCaskill's role in the foundation--which had to be inserted into disclosures covering 2014, 2015, and 2016 through amendments on June 6--came as part of an attempt to distance herself from investments in an opioid manufacturer.

She also claimed that, unlike those traitorous Republicans, she had never met with the Russian Ambassador. She's a liar and a Democrat, but...I repeat myself

They have short memories. See - slavery and segregation.

On March 2, 2017, McCaskill tweeted that she had had "No call or meeting w/Russian ambassador. Ever". After her own tweets of January 20, 2013 ("Off to meeting w/Russian Ambassador.") and August 6, 2015 ("Today calls with British, Russian, and German Ambassadors") were exposed, McCaskill recanted her tweet of March 2, blaming Twitter's character limit. McCaskill had been a leading critic of Attorney General Jeff Sessions' meetings with Russian government officials in his capacity as United States senator and had been among a chorus of Democrats calling for Sessions' resignation.[54]
[FOX] Susan Rice unmasking 'evidence' off limits for five years?
Susan Rice, the Obama national security adviser under fire over her alleged involvement in the "unmasking" of Trump associates during the 2016 presidential election, suggested in a fresh interview that race and gender might be playing a role in the scrutiny she’s faced.
In an interview with journalist Michael Tomasky for New York Magazine, Rice reportedly questioned the criticism she’s faced dating back to the Benghazi controversy.
"Why me? Why not Jay Carney, for example, who was then our press secretary, who stood up more?" she asked.
Tomasky noted in the piece that Carney "isn’t an African-American woman, of course" and apparently asked Rice whether that is the key factor. Rice, in response, left the door open:
"I don’t know... I do not leap to the simple explanation that it’s only about race and gender. I’m trying to keep my theories to myself until I’m ready to come out with them. It’s not because I don’t have any."
Sources say Fusion GPS had its own interest, beyond those of its clients, in promulgating negative gossip about Trump.
Fritsch, who served as the Journal’s bureau chief in Mexico City and has lectured at the liberal Wilson Center’s Mexico Institute, married into a family with Mexican business interests. His wife, Beatriz Garcia, formerly worked as an executive at Grupo Dina, a manufacturer of trucks and buses in Mexico City that benefits from NAFTA, which Trump opposes.
Fritsch’s Fusion GPS partner Thomas Catan, who grew up in Britain, once edited a business magazine in Mexico.

When all else fails play the race card.
Looks like she *started* with the race card. She's probably prone to the fantasies held by a good number of blacks, which is that non-blacks are similarly ethically-challenged and crime-prone, except they don't get caught.
[IsraelTimes] Michael Daniel confident outcome reflects will of American people; says investigation will show if Trump colluded with Moscow.
Former US president Barack Obama My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it... ’s cybersecurity adviser said Wednesday that he was confident Russian hackers were not able to alter voting records during last year’s election, and that the outcome was a true reflection of how the American people voted.
That's nice. What is the fuss about, then?
In an interview with Israel’s Army Radio, Michael Daniel backed up what US security officials told a Senate committee investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 election, allegedly on behalf of the eventual victor, President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States....
Except if they failed, then they didn't actually meddle, and all the fuss in the media was -- what exactly was the purpose of those leaks to the media?
Daniel, 46, who serves as president of the Cyber Threat Alliance, an international internet security cooperation group, was Obama’s cybersecurity coordinator until six months ago, when Trump became president.
Now what is he?
"I certainly think that the Russians or anyone else -- they certainly didn’t change any votes, so that the votes that were cast properly reflect the votes of the American people," Daniel said.
Yes, because if they had succeeded and changed votes, then President Obama would have seriously dropped the ball.
Both the House and Senate Intelligence committees are probing the extent of Russian involvement and hacking prior to the election.
None, according to Mr. Daniel.
The FBI is also investigating ties between Trump’s staff and Moscow figures.
None between Mr. Trump and Moscow, according to former FBI chief Comey, and there have been no solid leaks about any of his people, suggesting the accusations are vicious nonsense.
US security agencies have said they discovered widespread attempts by Russian hackers to access voter details and have pointed the finger at Moscow as being behind the hack and subsequent leak of Democratic National Committee emails.
But while there was a report of an attempted hack of the RNC, nothing came of it. Stupid is as stupid does.
However, we can't all be heroes. Somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by... earlier this month US officials told the Senate committee that the cyber-assaults did not affect the eventual vote count.
Daniel was more cautious when asked about Trump’s possible collusion with the Russians.
"I can’t really comment on that," he said. "Our system is designed to have a considerable number of checks and balances in it and the investigation will have to take its course."
Daniel was tight-lipped as to whether or not Trump should step down over alleged Russian ties. He was also taciturn regarding Trump’s claims that Obama bugged his election team to listen in on him.
"I have no information on that kind of activity," Daniel said and noted it was outside his purview of his job in the B.O. regime, which dealt with readiness for cyberattacks.
Daniel was in Israel to participate in the Cyber Week Conference in Tel Aviv.
