Just in case you missed the latest couple of usurpations by our dictator, Obama plans to unilaterally turn over control of a significant part of the internet to a nonprofit international group.  Read that as no doubt part of the international elitist socialist cabal.  Congress has not approved this but that doesn’t matter to the idiot who wants to end our sovereignty in favor of a world wide unelected socialist body.

And in other news, Obama’s DOJ is planning to once again intentionally defy duly enacted legislation.  Rubio succeeded in getting a provision passed which limited payments to insurers under the so called risk corridors provision in Obamacare to money taken in in those corridors.  Basically if some insurers made profits and others had losses the winners would subsidize the losers but tax payers wouldn’t be responsible to cover the losses which everyone knew Obamacare would entail.  However, contrary to the law it turns out HHS has already improperly used $3 billion to bail out the insurers as found by I think GAO.  But that wasn’t good enough for Obama, encouraged no doubt by the administration, the insurers are suing HHS saying they are entitled to full reimbursement for any losses.

And guess what DOJ is doing, no doubt at the behest of Obama.  They are encouraging the insurers to seek settlement of the lawsuit by asking for big amounts which DOJ can then give them by settling the lawsuit, which has no possibility of being won by the insurers because as stated earlier the law is clear and they have no leg to stand on.  The money would come out of DOJ’s litigation fund, the same fund Obama used to send the cash to Iran to ransom hostages.  This is the first time I am aware of, which doesn’t really mean anything, where an administration has encouraged a bogus lawsuit so that they could settle it and fraudulently pay money Congress had specifically prohibited.

This administration is the definition of corruption and expect worse from Queen Hillary.

Just a brief note on the hypocritical double standard used by liberals in the manufactured war on women.  As noted yesterday they are all over Trump for remarks he made 25 years ago about a beauty queen who gained 60+ pounds in violation of her contract.  However, they have no problem calling Trump overweight because he’s 15 or 20 pounds past ideal.  God knows he’s not a contestant in the Mr. Universe contest, although he would probably say he would win, but if anyone was to mention that Hillary’s ass is the size of New England all hell would break loose.

Trump is clearly in much better shape than Clinton; doesn’t need to take several days off frequently to rest; can walk upstairs without help; and clearly has much more stamina than she does.  Let me see a show of hands of all those who think that Hillary is healthy.

Most likely the clear difference in their energy and stamina is what led Howard “wacko” Dean to claim Trump uses cocaine because he had the sniffles.  Howie should know because when he went cuckoo for coco puffs he sure seemed like he was on a coke bender.  Back to reality, I would love to have seen the results of a drug test on both candidates conducted before the debate.

Just another quickie but I find it amazing how Trump is catching all kinds of crap for statements he made 20 years ago about a miss universe  gaining a lot of weight. Please see the link below and you will find that CNN itself fat shamed her back then and now they’re leading the charge in the opposite direction.  People when you’re a beauty contestant you agree to maintain your appearance and weight.  She gained in excess of 60 lbs and that isn’t acceptable in that line of work.

This rant was inspired by a discussion I had recently with a very dear friend.  It became apparent in discussing my problems with Hillary that when everyone discusses the difference between Hillary and Trump on taxes, the one thing that is often overlooked is what I call the nontax taxes.  For example, if Hillary wins and successfully closes down the coal industry, electricity costs will increase dramatically.  This is every bit as much a tax as a “real” tax.  It is money taken out of your pocket by the government through its actions.  Likewise, when she destroys the oil and gas industry in pursuit of the phantom menace of global warming  and your gasoline prices go from $2/gal to $6/gal that is no different to you than a real tax.  Similarly, all the additional costs you pay because of the never ending increase in government regulations that add significantly to the cost of everything are really nontax taxes.  So when you compare Clinton’s alleged tax plan to Trump’s, remember to factor in the tremendous nontax tax burden she is proposing.

Just a couple quickies about the email debacle.  First as I posted on February 4th, the fix was in once it was discovered that Obama and Kerry had emailed Hillary on her private server and those chains contained classified information.   Thus it was clear Hillary couldn’t be indicted without Obama being  indicted and that ain’t never going to happen.  What’s new is that in last Friday’s document dump it was revealed that Obama used an alias when communicating with Hillary on her illegal bathroom server.  This of course puts the lie to Obama’s go to plea of ignorance whenever something bad comes out in the press.  He never knows anything until he reads about it in the media.  Hard to believe when he was emailing to her private server under an alias.  When Huma Abedin was shown one of the pseudonymous emails and informed who the “masked” author was, she blurted that that’s classified.  Very interesting!

The other thing I saw today makes the FBI’s failure to pursue allegations against the Clinton Foundation understandable.  Apparently Comey when he was at Lockeed Martin was part of the pay to play scheme.  Lockheed gave $250,000 to Bill Clinton for a speech and Secretary Clinton approved arms deals for Lockeed.  Lockeed became a big contributor to the “foundation” and got several contracts approved by Clinton’s State Department.  Lockeed also became involved with the scam that is the Clinton Global Initiative about which I have previously ranted.  Read the article.

http://ijr.com/2016/09/703663-fbi-director-let-hillary-off-the-hook-now-we-know-why-he-wouldnt-talk-about-the-clinton-foundation/

Now all becomes clear.  Comey should have recused himself from anything to do with the Clintons.

As you will remember, I have pointed out several times in rants that in fact it was the Clinton camp that first raised the issue of Obama’s place of birth and that Sid Blumenthal  was most likely behind it.  The Sid guess turned out to be correct as reported in the news in the last couple weeks.  However it now appears that Barry O himself may have in fact been the first birther.  Please read the article below which even has documents back from Barry’s Harvard days stating that he was born in Kenya.  Amazingly, his place of birth was changed to Hawaii a couple of weeks before he announced he was running for president.  SHOCKER!

Now this doesn’t mean he was born in Kenya.  Maybe like fauxcohontas Elizabeth Warren he just used the deception to ease getting in school and maybe aid based on being African.  Whatever the case, Trump needs to go on the offense next time the media try to make this an issue and point out Obama himself said he was Kenyan.  Maybe this is why he has refused to release his Harvard records and his sycophants go apoplectic every time someone brings it up.

Who Was The First Birther?

Saw an interesting bit by Rush Limbaugh today which makes perfect sense for why there is rioting and unrest in Charlotte and not in Oklahoma.  Remember that in Charlotte it was a black individual shot by a black police officer, whereas in Oklahoma is was a black individual shot by a white female officer who has been charged with manslaughter.  Yet there has been no rioting in Oklahoma while in Charlotte they have been calling for boycotting all white owned businesses in addition to rioting.  Sure it makes sense to boycott white business because a black shot a black?

What Rush pointed out  —  and it makes perfect sense  —  is that Oklahoma is solidly behind Trump while North Carolina is still an important battleground state where Trump has a small lead.  Soros and his thugs want to create division in order to potentially get a large black turnout to up Hillary’s chances in NC.  This also explains why over 70% of those arrested in Charlotte are from other states.  It’s just another day in the Soros/Alinski storm trooper offensive.  Sad that there are enough myopic idiots that it might work.  Hopefully Fox will pick up on this although my guess is that tonight’s debate will dominate all news for several days.

There is a very simple way to solve the student debt crisis.  Make student debt dischargeable in bankruptcy!  When the last overhaul was done on the bankruptcy system, one part that was changed as I recall was to make sure student loans could not be discharged in bankruptcy.  Thus the political elite protected their friends and donors in the banking community at the expense of everyone else.  These are the same bunch of self-serving crooks who bailed out the banks from the inevitable result of their greed in making mortgage loans they knew were never going to be paid.

And now it appears that they may be headed that way again and looking for another bailout.  By the way although my tax dollars went to bail them out I don’t recall any reduction in MY mortgage balance!!

But back to the subject at hand, if banks knew that student loans could be discharged in bankruptcy, they would be much more cautious in their lending decisions which would necessarily cause universities to be much more restrained in raising their tuition and fees since there would be no pot of gold to pay them.  They might even think about offering real education and not Lady Gaga studies and the like which literally dominate university offerings with no real chance of being worth a damn in the job market.

The political elites and their financial donors have in effect created a whole new class of indentured servants  —  graduates burdened by significant undischargeable debt in a disastrous job market caused by the same political elites.

We bailed out the banks once.  Now it’s time to let students bail themselves out through bankruptcy if necessary, and if the banks have to eat it then so be it.  And by the way, in closing this rant, free college is a stupid idea, and obviously it’s not free.  Someone, namely us taxpayers are going to have to pay for it and it will just lead to a lot more people who really have no business going to college to go and study more and more useless course offerings.

This got scarce coverage last week.  I don’t think that I saw anything on the tube or an article on it other than the one cited below.

“Hillary for America processed a total of $94 in unauthorized charges to Carol Mahre’s US Bank account. This follows a pattern in which unwitting donors are charged multiple times, but always for a total of less than $100, which is a key trigger point for banks’ internal action systems.

Hillary Clinton’s campaign is stealing from her poorest supporters by purposefully and repeatedly overcharging them after they make what’s supposed to be a one-time small donation through her official campaign website, multiple sources tell the Observer.

The overcharges are occurring so often that the fraud department at one of the nation’s biggest banks receives up to 100 phone calls a day from Clinton’s small donors asking for refunds for unauthorized charges to their bankcards made by Clinton’s campaign. One elderly Clinton donor, who has been a victim of this fraud scheme, has filed a complaint with her state’s attorney general and a representative from the office told her that they had forwarded her case to the Federal Election Commission.

“We get up to a hundred calls a day from Hillary’s low-income supporters complaining about multiple unauthorized charges,” a source, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of job security, from the Wells Fargo fraud department told the Observer. The source claims that the Clinton campaign has been pulling this stunt since Spring of this year. The Hillary for America campaign will overcharge small donors by repeatedly charging small amounts such as $20 to the bankcards of donors who made a one-time donation. However, the Clinton campaign strategically doesn’t overcharge these donors $100 or more because the bank would then be obligated to investigate the fraud.

“We don’t investigate fraudulent charges unless they are over $100,” the fraud specialist explained. “The Clinton campaign knows this, that’s why we don’t see any charges over the $100 amount, they’ll stop the charges just below $100. We’ll see her campaign overcharge donors by $20, $40 or $60 but never more than $100.” The source, who has worked for Wells Fargo for over 10 years, said that the total amount they refund customers on a daily basis who have been overcharged by Clinton’s campaign “varies” but the bank usually issues refunds that total between $700 and $1,200 per day.”

Exclusive: Hillary Clinton Campaign Systematically Overcharging Poorest Donors

The woman has no shame and will steal from anyone.  As I said a long time ago, the Clinton’s believe in income redistribution, but unlike Obama, their definition is take from wherever you can get it and keep it!!

Tomorrow I will solve the student debt crisis.

You will recall that a few weeks ago I published a link to speech in which Obama said that we were too stupid to govern ourselves and the best system would be to yield our rights to an overarching government.  Some people questioned whether he could be so stupid as to make such an outrageous statement.  He’s in the final inning of his disastrous presidency and no longer pretends to be anything but a fan for a worldwide socialist government controlled by non-elected elites.  He even said this country has too much capitalism.

“Obama also reminded the assembled nations that a central part of this wonderful new globalized world is surrendering national sovereignty. “Powerful nations, like my own, [must] accept constraints,” Obama said.

“I am convinced in the long run, giving up some freedom of action — not giving up our ability to protect ourselves or pursue our core interests, but binding ourselves to the international rules over the long term — enhances our security,” he said.”
