BREAKING! Obama Linked To GOP Execution This Is HUGE!

This is just sobeyond sickeningand perverse that it borders on the unbelievable.

The Obama administrations National Security Council official Ben Rhodes actually had the audacity to post a death wish aimed at top Republicans and Government officials on Twitter early Thursday morning. This sick act of course drew some serious condemnation from Republican Congressman Steve Scalise from Louisiana who was seriously wounded when a deranged Bernie Bro far left wing Democrat voter decided to become a sniper and commit a terror attack earlier this year that wounded three and almost killed the Congressman at a GOP Congressional baseball game practice back in June.

Rhodes was commenting on a photo from President Donald Trumps Instagram account that was re-posted by fellow Obama admin official Dan Pfeiffer. The photo showed a joyous gathering of Vice President Mike Pence, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell standing next to President Trump in the Oval Office as they celebrated the passage of the Republican tax overhaul bill. The first major overhaul in over 30 years.

Alongside the obits (obituaries) of Ryan, McConnel, and Pence, Rhodes tweeted out. Keep in mind the fact that Ben Rhodes who made this threat. Not some left-wing keyboard commando based on his grandmothers basement. Hes an actual government official and aid to the former Obama Administration and President Obama himself. Imagine the crime these Republican lawmakers committed, they are actually letting us peons keep more of our own hard earned money, HOW DARE THEY? OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!

CBS News Reports:

House Majority Whip Rep. Steve Scalise was at imminent risk of death when he arrived at a hospital Wednesday after sustaining a gunshot to his hip during baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia, his doctor said Friday.

When he arrived, he was in critical condition with an imminent risk of death, Dr. Jack Sava, director of trauma at MedStar Washington Hospital Center, said in a briefing on the congressmans condition. He will certainly be in the hospital for a considerable period of time, presumably weeks.

However, Sava added that Scalises condition had stabilized over the past two days, saying an excellent recovery is a good possibility.

A single bullet traveled across Scalises pelvis when he was shot Wednesday, fracturing bones, injuring internal organs and causing severe bleeding, Sava said. He was transported in shock to the medical center.

The congressmans chief of staff, Brett Horton, read a statement from Jennifer Scalise, the congressmans wife. She said the family is forever grateful for the heroism of Special Agents Crystal Griner and David Bailey, who saved the lives of everyone at the baseball field that morning.

Sava said Griner sustained an ankle gunshot wound. She remains in the hospital, is in good condition and is in good spirits, he said.

Sava said the doctors were encouraged by Scalises progress over the past 36 hours but he will remain in the hospital for some time.

The round fragmented and did substantial damage to bones, internal organs, and blood vessels. I understand he was awake on scene, but by the time he was transported by helicopter to the MedStar Trauma Center he was in shock, he said.

Sava said Scalise has been sedated, but doctors have been able to reduce sedation to allow Scalise to communicate with his family. Scalise is expected to fully recover and be able to walk, Sava said.

We have controlled the internal bleeding and his vital signs have stabilized, Sava said.

MedStar Washington Hospital Center previously issued a statement on Scalises condition Friday.

Earlier today, [Scalise] underwent a second surgery related to his internal injuries and a broken bone in his leg. He remains in critical condition, but has improved in the last 24 hours. The Congressman will require additional operations, and will be in the hospital for some time. At the request of the family, we will continue to provide periodic updates, the statement said.

President Trump said Friday that Scalise took a bullet for all of us when he was shot Wednesday morning at a congressional Republican baseball practice.

The presidents meaning was unclear as he made the comments at an event on Cuba policy in Miami. But Mr. Trump went on to say that Because of him and the tremendous pain and suffering hes now enduring and hes having a hard time, far worse than anybody thought our country will perhaps become closer, more unified, so important.

So we all owe Steve a big, big thank you, Mr. Trump added.

Its seriously time for government officials like this Rhodes character to be held to account for what they say. You cant just go around wishing for the death of people and just walk away without any repercussions. These people are supposed to set an example. But Im pretty sure Twitter wont suspend his account the same way mine has been suspended multiple times because they dont like the truth posted on their platform if they dont agree with it.

Please share if you want to see Twitter suspend Ben Rhodes account.

Barack Obama 7 rules to success – Logical B

Lesson 1: Be there for your family, even if youre not aroundI joined the campaign on August 4, which also happened to be Obamas birthday. ButMichelle Obamaand their daughters, Malia and Sasha, were nowhere to be seen.

The birthday celebration was yesterday, he said. We get everything in, just not always on schedule. I sat on a lounge chair in a friends backyard, watching my girls andMichelledance. It was as nice a moment as Ive had in a long time. I dont miss the important things. I havent missed a dance recital. I havent missed a parent-teacher conference. But there are some things I do miss. Those are trade-offs you make.

Id like to say that quality time replaces quantity, but sometimes it doesnt. A lot of the best moments of family life happen spontaneously. If you have less time to devote to them, there are fewer of those. What Ive been able to do is create a zone of normalcy for my kids. Michelles been wonderful about that. I have been able to transmit to them my absolute interest in them and my absolute love for them.

Lesson 2: Make the future your focusAn unavoidable sacrifice: the way a childs life changes under the glare of campaign lights. Obama noted that his daughters were young5 and 8when he had to explain the upheaval that was about to shake their family. The girls first order of business: their now-famous request for a First Dog. They did also ask about what they called secret people, which were the Secret Service folks: Are we going to have to have those people with sunglasses and earpieces following us around all the time? And I told them, well, not right away. Theyve adjusted wonderfully.

Lesson 3: Learn from your father, even if he wasnt a good oneCiting the complex relationship between Bush I and Bush II, I asked the then-senator if his absent father would have an impact on an Obama presidency. I would like to think that most of the issues related to my father have been resolved, he replied. Thats part of what writingDreams from My Fatherwas about: understanding him, his own personal tragedy. He wasnt a presence in my life; he was an idea that I had to wrestle with for a long time.

Somebody once said that every man is either trying to live up to his dads expectations or make up for his dads mistakes. And Im sure I was doing a little bit of both. But somewhere in my late twenties or early thirties, I sort of figured out what his absence had meant. Its part of what I think has made me a pretty good dad. Theres no doubt that it has contributed to my drive. I might not be here had it not been for that absent father prodding me early in life.

Lesson 4: Organize distractions right out of your lifeClearly, Obama knows how to manage groups. By the time your outfit has its own plane, it had better have a solid pilot.

Im part of an organization, he said, speaking of his campaign team, and one of the things I really try to push is to make sure that everybody is focused on the two or three things that are really going to make a difference. I ask them to design my schedule in a way that focuses on being active instead of reactive.

The most difficult thing is to carve out time to think, which is probably the most important time for somebody whos trying to shift an organization, or in this case, the country, as opposed to doing the same things that have been done before. And I find that that time slips away.

His solution: delegate. I dont spend a lot of time returning calls or e-mails. If somebody needs something, usually somebody else can handle it. Eliminating TV has been helpful.

But, he confesses, Im still a sucker forSportsCenter.

Lesson 5: Use workout time to focus your mindIn the epilogue toThe Audacity of Hope, Obama recounts how, after a long day in the Senate, he would jog to the Lincoln Memorial, where hed pull a patriotic Rocky on the steps. Now those head-clearing runs are over: One of the things about this job is the loss of anonymity. I cant run outside anymore. Looks like Ive got to find other ways to exercise.

Along with impromptu hoops games, Obama follows a six-day workout schedule that alternates cardio and weight training. But fitness is just the side benefit: My blood pressure is pretty low, and I tend to be a healthy eater. So I probably could get away with cutting back a little bit. The main reason I work out is just to clear my head and relieve stress. Its a great way to stay focused.

Lesson 6: Quit smoking (as often as you need to)For all of Obamas fitness, hes carried around the ultimate health taboosmokingfor most of his adult life. And he inhaled, alright. Then came word that hed quit smoking.

There wasnt some dramatic moment, he said. Michelle had been putting pressure on me for a while. I was never really a heavy smokerprobably at my peak I was smoking seven or eight a day. More typical was three. So it wasnt a huge challenge. There have been a couple of times during the campaign when I fell off the wagon and bummed one, and I had to kick it again.

He does have advice for people wrestling with the dependency. Eliminate certain key connectionsthat first cigarette in the morning, or after a meal, or with a drink. Eliminating those triggers should help.

Lesson 7: If you want to avoid disappointing others, dont disappoint yourselfNo surprise here. Its something Obama has thought about a lot: I always try to make sure that my expectations are higher than those of the people around me, he says. The American people are having a tough time. And I never want people to feel as if Ive overpromised to them. I try to explain in a real, honest way how difficult some of the changes will be. But I never want the effect to be that Im not working as hard as I can on their behalf, that Im not continually trying to improve. Im actually glad for the high expectations. One of the interesting things about a campaign is that it really does push you to the limit and then some. And it turns out that you have more in your reservoir than you expected.

Former President Barack Obama allegedly brokered his nuclear deal with Iran by allowing Hezbollah off the hook for its terrorist actions, and even for smuggling drugs into the U.S.

From Politico:

In its determination to secure a nuclear deal with Iran, the Obama administration derailed an ambitious law enforcement campaign targeting drug trafficking by the Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah, even as it was funneling cocaine into the United States, according to a POLITICO investigation.

The campaign, dubbed Project Cassandra, was launched in 2008 after the Drug Enforcement Administration amassed evidence that Hezbollah had transformed itself from a Middle East-focused military and political organization into an international crime syndicate that some investigators believed was collecting $1 billion a year from drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering and other criminal activities.

Over the next eight years, agents working out of a top-secret DEA facility in Chantilly, Virginia, used wiretaps, undercover operations and informants to map Hezbollahs illicit networks, with the help of 30 U.S. and foreign security agencies.

They followed cocaine shipments, some from Latin America to West Africa and on to Europe and the Middle East, and others through Venezuela and Mexico to the United States. They tracked the river of dirty cash as it was laundered by, among other tactics, buying American used cars and shipping them to Africa. And with the help of some key cooperating witnesses, the agents traced the conspiracy, they believed, to the innermost circle of Hezbollah and its state sponsors in Iran.

But as Project Cassandra reached higher into the hierarchy of the conspiracy, Obama administration officials threw an increasingly insurmountable series of roadblocks in its way, according to interviews with dozens of participants who in many cases spoke for the first time about events shrouded in secrecy, and a review of government documents and court records. When Project Cassandra leaders sought approval for some significant investigations, prosecutions, arrests and financial sanctions, officials at the Justice and Treasury departments delayed, hindered or rejected their requests.

Court faults Obama administration for elephant hunting policy …

A federal appeals court ruled Friday that the Obama administration did not follow the right procedures when it banned importing elephant hunting trophies from Zimbabwe.

The Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit said that the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) should have gone through an extensive process of proposing a regulation, inviting public comment and making the regulation final when it made determinations in 2014 and 2015 that elephant trophies cannot be brought into the country.

The decision could complicate the ongoing deliberations within the Trump administration over whether to undoObamas ban on bringing body parts, such as heads, from hunted Zimbabwe elephants into the country.

FWS reversed the ban last month, inviting significant pushback from numerous corners, including animal rights activists, lawmakers and commentators from both parties.

President Trump jumped in amid the backlash to put the decision on hold. Neither he nor his administration has made any announcement on the matter since then.

Since the three-judge appeals court panel ruled Friday that Obamas ban should have gone through the rulemaking process, any attempt to repeal the ban would likely have to go through a similar process.

In this case, the 2014 and 2015 enhancement findings had all of the qualities of a legislative rule, so the Service was obligated to follow the [Administrative Procedure Acts] notice-and-comment procedures before promulgating the findings, Judge Harry Edwards, nominated to the post by former President Carter (D), wrote in the decision.

But while the procedure was incorrect, the substance of the elephant trophy ban was legal, the judges found, and did not meet the arbitrary and capricious standard that courts use to evaluate whether regulations are not compliant with the law.

In this case, there is no serious dispute over the fact that the regulatory criteria for import were not satisfied, Edwards said.

Safari Club International and the National Rifle Association had sued the FWS over the elephant trophy ban. A lower court last year rejected all of their arguments, a decision they appealed.

As Democrats denounce Harvey Weinstein, Clintons and Obama …

Weinstein has long been a Clinton donor with ties to the political family. Weinstein was one of many from Hollywood who donated to Bill Clinton's legal defense fund in the 1990s, a Washington Post report from the time stated. More recently, the Clintons rented a home next to Weinstein in the Hamptons in 2015, and Weinstein served as a connector between Hollywood stars and Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign. Weinstein raised about $1.5 million from 1990-2016, according to data from the campaign finance-tracking Center for Responsive Politics, and was a bundler for Clinton's 2016 effort, including at a star-studded fundraiser for Clinton in June 2016 at Weinstein's Manhattan home.

Clinton personally headlined multiple fundraisers Weinstein was involved in organizing during the campaign.

Former Vice President Joe Biden, who has been outspoken on the issue of sexual assault, also has not appeared to make any public statements about Weinstein since the report came out. Bill Russo, a spokesman for the former vice president, declined to comment.

Some Republicans have seized on the Weinstein report and his ties to the Democratic Party.

Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel said in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer on Monday that Clinton's "silence is deafening."
