Turning Point

By Tammy Derouin

The American flag is a symbol of freedom and at one time, a symbol of unwavering strength.  I truly hope we are just dealing with a temporary ailment.  We ignored some very important signs because we didn’t want to face reality.  Much like knowing something is internally wrong but putting off going to the doctor because you don’t want confirmation.  For a time, it’s easier to live in a world of make believe.  By not facing reality, you somehow convince yourself that everything is just fine.

There comes a turning point.  You can no longer ignore the cold, hard evidence.  You eventually come to the conclusion that life is worth the upcoming battle.  It’s better to know the truth so you know how to fight the disease which has infected your body.  You hope it’s not too late as you begin to ask, why did I wait so long?

Our once healthy, vibrant nation has been infected with a life-threatening disease.  Some noticed signs right away but wanted to give the benefit of the doubt.  After all, the fundamental transformation of America, in true transparency, is really difficult to comprehend.  Some are still coming to the realization that something is wrong, while others are still stuck in denial.


Probably the most difficult aspect is realizing it was a self-inflicted disease.  We all bear a certain amount of responsibility.  We didn’t pay attention and assumed those we elected had our best interests in mind.  We voted without asking questions and allowed the press to be the enabler.  They should have exposed questionable signs but instead they twisted it into a pretty picture or buried it altogether. We went against our better judgment when something didn’t make sense. Sometimes the wait-and-see strategy only makes things worse...

Secretary of State John Kerry speaks to the United Nations Security Council about Russian military actions happening right now in Syria. 

Kerry said that U.S. forces had launched "a number of strikes [in Syria] over the past 24 hours, including some just an hour ago... And these strikes will continue," even though Russian forces are also active in the area.

"We must not and we will not be confused in our fight against ISIL," Kerry said, before repeating assurances made by President Obama to Vladimir Putin earlier this week: "If Russia’s recent actions and those now ongoing reflect a genuine commitment to defeat [the Islamic State], we are prepared to welcome those efforts and find a way to deconflict and therefore multiply our efforts."




President of Argentina Launches Big Iran Claim Against 2010 Obama Admin. Official on Floor of U.N. (UPDATE: Official Responds) | TheBlaze.com

President of Argentina Launches Big Iran Claim Against 2010 Obama Admin. Official on Floor of U.N. (UPDATE: Official Responds) | TheBlaze.com:

"Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner claimed during the U.N. General Assembly on Monday that a former Obama administration official attempted to convince Argentina to “provide the Islamic Republic of Iran with nuclear fuel.” The claim was seemingly overshadowed by President Barack Obama’s high-stakes dealings with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The official at the center of Kirchner’s claims confirmed his trip to Argentina in a statement to TheBlaze, but also provided vital context behind his objective and a proposed fuel swap deal that he said ultimately fell apart."

The New Axis of Evil

The New Axis of Evil | commentary:
The U.S. is not just being defeated in Iraq and Syria.
It is being humiliated.
On Sunday, the administration was taken by surprise for the umpteenth time when Russia, Iraq, Iran, and Syria announced an agreement, ostensibly to share intelligence about ISIS.
This is part of a widening role for Russia in the region, Moscow having already established a new airbase to go along with its existing naval base in Syria.
It is also a sign that Iraq is getting pulled further into the Russia-Syria-Iran axis — a new Axis of Evil — that is far more determined to keep Bashar Assad’s murderous regime in power than it is to fight ISIS.
It is telling that Russia has started drone surveillance flights in Syria over areas controlled not by ISIS but by other rebel groups. 
In fact the more this Axis keeps Assad in place, the stronger that ISIS gets because ISIS feeds off the understandable resentment that ordinary Sunnis feel towards a regime that has been responsible for the vast majority of the killing in a conflict that has claimed over 225,000 lives.
...While Russia appears to be purposeful in pursuing an amoral, anti-Western policy, the U.S. looks simply lost, bewildered, defeated. 
It’s not clear what policy the U.S. is pursuing anymore:
Are we for or against Assad?
For or against Iran?
All we know for sure is that we are against ISIS but that we are not doing much to “degrade” and “destroy” it, as the president claimed a year ago. In fact the latest intelligence estimates suggest that it is drawing in more than 1,000 foreign fighters a month, more than replenishing its losses from U.S. air strikes.
I cannot remember a more confused or dispiriting moment in American foreign policy since the 1970s."

Michigan in early talks on taking more Syria, Middle East refugees, Snyder says

Michigan in early talks on taking more Syria, Middle East refugees, Snyder says - Crain's Detroit Business:
"LANSING — Republican Gov. Rick Snyder said Tuesday his administration is talking with federal officials on the role the state can play in accepting more refugees from war-torn Syria and the Middle East, building on Michigan's century-plus of Arab immigration and taking a different tone from some GOP presidential candidates.
Snyder spoke to the inaugural meeting of the state Commission on Middle Eastern American Affairs, which works within the Department of Civil Rights to monitor, evaluate and make recommendations to the governor.
He helped create the commission earlier this year.
...Snyder, who briefly considered a 2016 presidential run, isn't bad-mouthing anybody, but maintains that refugees who have cleared security hurdles have something to offer economically and culturally and should be warmly welcomed.
Michigan has one of nation's largest Middle Eastern populations and Snyder said he "would love to see it grow even faster and flourish," though added there's no specific number of refugees being discussed..."

Silence Overtakes MSNBC Panel Following Former Clinton Secretary of State’s Answer on Private Email Server | Video | TheBlaze.com

Silence Overtakes MSNBC Panel Following Former Clinton Secretary of State’s Answer on Private Email Server | Video | TheBlaze.com:

"Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said Monday that she would not have allowed a deputy secretary of state to use a private email, which was followed by a noticeable silence that settled over the MSNBC “Morning Joe” panel.

Albright, who served as secretary of state under former President Bill Clinton, did defend Hillary Clinton’s use of her personal email during the segment and said Clinton “has been and will be” concerned about security issues. But her appearance ended after her comment that left the show’s hosts in brief, uncomfortable silence."

Its interesting that she didn’t try to focus on finding a job and a way to pay the rent herself.

Common Core? 6th Graders Taught How to Use Strap-On Dildos

Common Core? 6th Graders Taught How to Use Strap-On Dildo - Tea Party News:
"Explicit: 11-12 year olds given sex toy lesson in Jacksonville
(Infowars) – Shocking images out of a classroom in Jacksonville, Florida illustrate how 11-12 year olds in 6th grade are being taught how to use strap-on dildos amidst a debate about Common Core sex education standards which have been attacked by some as pornographic.
The pictures were taken by a student with a cellphone camera.
They show a teacher demonstrating how to use a strap-on sex toy in a number of different positions.
In one image, the teacher even shows how to insert the strap-on while her buttocks are in the air and her legs up over her head.
In another image, the woman shows the children how to wear a harness to which the strap-on is attached.
Clinton Middle School in Duval County hired 39-year-old Sharon Mercer to teach the sex education class but after the photos emerged she was suspended and the school refused further comment. Mercer claimed her suspension was an act of “bigotry” because she was a “proud member of the LGBTQ community.”
Newly implemented Common Core educational standards have been assailed for their attempt to create a lowest common denominator form of teaching which many assert only works to dumb down lessons and prevent smart students from excelling, but these images give a glimpse into an even darker side to the federally mandated rules..."

The Mystery Of Hillary's Missing Millions

The Mystery Of Hillary's Missing Millions - Forbes:
"Since Bill and Hillary Clinton left the White House in 2001, they have earned more than $230 million. 
But in federal filings the Clintons claim they are worth somewhere between $11 million and $53 million. 
After layering years of disclosures on top of annual tax returns, Forbes estimates their combined net worth at $45 million.
Where did all of the money go?
No one seems to know, and the Clintons aren’t offering any answers.
From 2001 to 2014 the power couple spent $95 million on taxes.
Hillary’s 2008 presidential run cost her $13 million.
Their two homes cost a combined $5 million, and the Clintons have given away $22 million to charity.
All of this is according to FEC filings, property records and years of tax returns.
Add it up and you get $135 million.
If the Clintons made $230 million, spent $135 million and have just $45 million left over, what happened to the other $50 million?
“That’s kind of strange,” says Joe Biden’s accountant, Walter Deyhle. 
“You have to report all of your assets. 
You have to report assets that are owned by your spouse.”"

‘I’m Going to Tell You Why He Resigned’: Ted Cruz’s Theory on Why Boehner Decided to Leave Congress | TheBlaze.com

‘I’m Going to Tell You Why He Resigned’: Ted Cruz’s Theory on Why Boehner Decided to Leave Congress | TheBlaze.com:

"Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) offered an explanation as to why outgoing House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) unexpectedly announced last week that he would resign from Congress at the end of next month.

“You know this past week was a big news week in Washington,” Cruz said during a lengthy speech on the Senate floor Monday evening. “The Speaker of the House John Boehner announced he was going to resign. And there was a lot of speculation in the media why the speaker of the house resigned. Mr. President, I’m going to tell you why he resigned.”

Nice story. America!-----Woman to Reunite With Nurse Who Cared for Her as Burned Infant

Woman to Reunite With Nurse Who Cared for Her as Burned Infant - ABC News:

"It has been nearly 40 years, but a New York woman found the nurse who cared for her when she was badly burned as an infant.
Amanda Scarpinati had spent years searching for the mystery nurse shown in a moving black-and-white photograph caring for Scarpinati when she was a baby.
Scarpinati was burned after falling onto a steam vaporizer as a 3-month-old and taken to Albany Medical Center in 1977 for treatment.
PHOTO: Sue Berger is set to reunite with a patient she last saw in 1977. A few snapshots of Scarpinati as an infant wrapped in bandages and carefully cradled by a nurse made the cover of the 1977 Albany Medical Center annual report. Scarpinati searched for the woman this month via a social media campaign.
Within days, she found out the caring nurse was Sue Berger, now a nurse practitioner in Syracuse, New York.
“I was so stunned,” Berger told ABC News on hearing that Scarpinati was looking for her.
“I was just speechless and to think that someone would have thought about it all those years and to have saved the photo, as I did myself.”
Berger said she distinctly remembered Scarpinati as an infant and had wondered what happened to the badly burned child.
“She was such an unusual baby in terms of being so calm and not crying,” Berger said. 
“She must have been in pain and she was so trusting and just a beautiful baby.”
They were scheduled to meet for the first time in 38 years later this afternoon at the Albany Medical Center, after already reconnecting on the telephone.
“It was wonderful, it was so good to hear her voice and have her explain emotionally where she was coming from,” Berger said.
Scarpinati told The Associated Press that the picture of Berger’s holding her gave her comfort during her childhood. Scarpinati could not immediately be reached for further comment by ABC News.
"Growing up as a child, disfigured by the burns, I was bullied and picked on, tormented," Scarpinati told the AP.
"I'd look at those pictures and talk to her, even though I didn't know who she was.
I took comfort looking at this woman who seemed so sincere caring for me."
The Associated Press contributed to this report."

On Ahmed’s Clock, President Obama Once Again Spoke Too Soon

On Ahmed’s Clock, President Obama Once Again Spoke Too Soon | The Daily Caller:
"...But the question should never have gone this far.
If there is a problem, it is with the rigid “zero tolerance” rules that compel public schools to handle so-called “weapon” cases the way they do.
Eagle Scouts, honor students, and others have had their college careers derailed by “zero tolerance” policies.
Take just some of the bizarre zero tolerance “weapon” cases involving younger students that got national news coverage in 2013.
— 1st grader was given detention and suspension for bringing a quarter-sized toy gun on a school bus.
— 1st grader who brought a clear plastic toy gun to show and tell was suspended.
First grader suspended for “talking” about a toy gun with another student.
— Kindergarten girl was suspended for 10 days for saying he was “shooting” a friend with a Hello Kitty bubble-making gun.
— Second grader was suspended for “pointing a pencil at another student and making gun noises.“
— Seventh grader was suspended for playing with an airsoft gun in his own front yard
— Seventh grader suspended for having a tiny keychain “gun.”
Second grader in Baltimore was suspended for biting a Pop-Tart into the shape of a mountain, which school officials mistook for a gun.

But Obama never worried about the fate of those students.
Indeed, even Mohamed’s case hasn’t caused him to question the underlying problem..."

STATE OF SIEGE: Gangs Of Muslim Men Roaming The Streets, Young Women Told To Cover Up

STATE OF SIEGE: Gangs Of Muslim Men Roaming The Streets, Young Women Told To Cover Up | Pamela Geller:
“There is a crack in everything.
That’s how the light gets in.”
And so the true story of the Muslim invasion of Europe is beginning (albeit too slowly) to be told by some members of the mainstream media.
It is as I said from the very first.
These are not refugees from the war: four out of five “migrants” are not from Syria. 
These are hostile invaders.
This is not a “humanitarian crisis,” it is a war, and they are waging it by sea, land, and air.
These fairy tale names penned by the media and political elites for very ugly things (ie “the Arab Spring”) disarm and disable freedom-loving people.
Now German women are being told to cover up as they would in a Muslim country under the sharia.
Police have kept silent about rapes.
Only this month, after a local newspaper revealed what was happening and claimed German authorities are not ‘going public’ about crimes involving migrants because they don’t want to ‘give legitimacy’ to critics of mass migration.
European Council president Donald Tusk has warned that millions more migrants are on their way and ‘the policy of open doors and windows’ must be scrapped.
Ya think?.."

IT'S OFFICIAL: The Ground Zero Mosque Has Been Defeated! ⋆ Doug Giles ⋆ #ClashDaily

IT'S OFFICIAL: The Ground Zero Mosque Has Been Defeated! ⋆ Doug Giles ⋆ #ClashDaily:

"But El-Gamal’s announcement makes it official: The Ground Zero Mosque project is dead.
It was a long battle. President Obama announced his support for the mosque at an Iftar dinner, no less. Then-Mayor of New York City Michael Bloomberg supported the mosque as well, claiming hysterically that “if we don’t build it, the terrorists will win!” The media actively campaigned for it — the elites in their increasingly fragile ivory towers relentlessly stumped for the Cordoba mosque (euphemistically called an Islamic center with a prayer space) for years."

Europe’s Migrant Crisis Is Simply Muslim History vs. Western Fantasy

Europe’s Migrant Crisis Is Simply Muslim History vs. Western Fantasy | PJ Media
Progressive Europe erased or rewrote its own history.
Now they can't recognize an invasion by people to whom history is everything.
The world as understood by Islamic nations varies wildly from the Western nations’ understanding of the world.
Whereas Muslims see the world through the lens of history, the West has jettisoned or rewritten history to suit its ideologies.
This dichotomy of Muslim and Western thinking is evident everywhere.
When the Islamic State declared that it will “conquer Rome” and “break its crosses,” few in the West realized that those are the verbatim words and goals of Islam’s founder and his companions as recorded in Muslim sources — words and goals that prompted over a thousand years of jihad on Europe.
Most recently, the Islamic State released a map of the areas it plans on expanding into over the next five years.
Not only are Mideast and Asian regions included, but the map includes European lands:
Portugal, Spain, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Greece, parts of Russia, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Romania, Armenia, Georgia, Crete, and Cyprus.
The reason for this is simple. According to Islamic law, once a country has been conquered (or “opened,” as the euphemistic Arabic words it), it becomes Islamic in perpetuity..."
