1. “Flashback: Media Didn’t Care When Obama Scrubbed Security Clearances”

   ““W.H. Looks to Scrub Clearance List,” was the November 21, 2013, headline at the far-left Politico.

   In a directive obtained by POLITICO, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper questioned the booming rolls of security-clearance holders. At last count, more than 4.9 million people held clearances, of whom over 1.4 million were cleared for access at the “Top Secret” level.

   “I write to express my concern about threats to national security resulting from the increasing number of people with eligibility for access to classified national security information, particularly Top Secret (TS) and Top Secret/Secure Compartmented Information (TS/SCI),” [then Director of National Intelligence James] Clapper wrote in a three-page memo, dated Oct. 31 and cited at a Senate hearing Wednesday.

   Clapper asked agencies to perform a top-to-bottom scrub of the teeming rolls of people authorized to access classified information and to remove anyone deemed not to have a so-called need to know.

   What’s more, Clapper specified his concern about contractors: “Agencies should debrief all government and contractor personnel who no longer require such access and update the appropriate national security database or repository.”

   Obviously, Clapper and the Obama administration singling out contractors would result in job and income losses for all those former G-Men.

   So where was the media uproar?

   Here you have the Obama administration openly taking aggressive action for the exact same reasons the Trump administration is: a legitimate security concern over those no longer in government using their continued security access as a means to obtain wealth and position in the private sector (including anti-Trump media outlets).

   But as you can see, when Obama did it no one in the media cared.

   As you can see, back in 2013, no one in the media screamed, as our media repeatedly have throughput the last week, that the revocation of these clearances would risk national security, much less be the stuff of a banana republic eager to kill free speech.

   The difference, of course, is that during the Obama administration, the establishment media (meaning anti-Trump outlets like CNN, NBC News, the New York Times, and the Washington Post) had zero desire to uncover anything negative about Obama; and so, in turn, they had no desire to put former-government officials on the payroll who would dish dirt on their precious Barry, or to use them as background sources.”

   • Well.
     Of course you never tell the truth JoeBiden. Trump is revoking security clearances as a weapon to stifle those who disagree with him, his POLITICAL foes!
     He’s attacking a political enemies list, plain, short and simple.

     Putin puts his political foes IN JAIL if they disagree with him.
     The agent of the Russian government, Trump is on course to do the same thing.
     Big difference there Joey…….

     Figures you would have to go to the bleeding readers, so writes lies, Breitbart.com Joe.

     Bad day for Trump.
     Trump Campaign Chairman, Manafort, GUILTY.
     Trump’s Personal Attorney, Cohen, GUILTY.

     Justice boys and girls. Justice.

2. Bernie Sanders supporter protesting right-wing rally with American flag beaten up by Antifa, video shows

   A registered Democrat and Bernie Sanders supporter protesting a right-wing rally in Oregon earlier this month says he was viciously beaten by militant members of his own movement because he possessed a “fascist symbol” — an American flag….

   He said two people dressed in black and covering their faces approached him and demanded he give them the “fascist symbol” he was carrying. When he refused, the Antifa duo tried to rip the flag from his hands.

   Another masked counter-protester then approached Welch and began striking him from behind with an unidentified weapon concealed in black fabric.

   Welch, 38, was struck on the back of the head and collapsed to the ground.

   “My bones turned to Jell-O and I just went down,” Welch recalled. “I remember thinking there was a very good chance that I could be beaten to death.”….

   Video of the incident, which has been viewed thousands of times, shows the person with the weapon walking away. But another counter-protester, holding a shield, moves in, stands above Welch and then jabs him with a makeshift weapon.

   A group of volunteer street medics rushed to Welch’s aid and took him to an urgent care clinic in the city. Doctors needed four staples to close a 3-inch gash on the back of Welch’s head and he spent at least two days recovering from a concussion.

   Nope Orange Slime, the newly created Russian Republicans, (And now we all know who they are), are starting to get nervous.

   And one reason the stock market is doing well, is because Valium, Xanax, Klonopin and Ativan are selling like a stink bomb at a Trump rally.

   Hang in there Russian Republicans, the only chance this country has for you to survive is to burn your house down;
