Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah dead at 90

Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah has died at the age of 90.

This is certainly not good for the powder keg that is the Middle East, especially when it comes to Iran and the recent collapse of the government in Yemen.

Saudi state TV says King Abdullah, the powerful U.S. ally who joined Washington’s fight against al-Qaida and sought to modernize the ultraconservative Muslim kingdom has died. He was 90.

The TV station said Abdullah died Friday.

His expected successor is his 79-year-old half-brother, Prince Salman, who recently has taken on the ailingAbdullah’s responsibilities.

UPDATE I: Saudi King Abdullah dies, new ruler is Salman.

Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah died early on Friday and his brother Salman became king, the royal court in the world’s top oil exporter and birthplace of Islam said in a statement carried by state television.

King Salman has named his half-brother Muqrin as his crown prince and heir.

“His Highness Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and all members of the family and the nation mourn the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, who passed away at exactly 1 a.m. this morning,” said the statement.

Abdullah, thought to have been born in 1923, had ruled Saudi Arabia as king since 2006, but had run the country as de facto regent for a decade before that after his predecessor King Fahd suffered a debilitating stroke.

YouTube Interview: Obama Has Time to Meet with GloZell Green, But Not Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu … Divider in Chief Answers ‘Po-Po’ Question

UNBELIEVABLE …

So this is what Barack Obama has reduced the office of the United States presidency to. Some how or another Barack Obama can’t find time to meet with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but his busy schedule has time to meet with a GloZell Green, a woman who is famous om YouTube for her green lipstick and eating cereal out of a bathtub filled with milk (VIDEO). Really? During her interview, Glozell told Obama that she had cut the hoods off of the sweatshirts of her husband, who is black, to protect him from being shot by the “po-po.”

“However, he is mad at me right now because I cut all the hoods off his hoodies. [Obama's laughs] I did to protect him. Because I am afraid when he goes outside that some body will shoot and kill him.  And its not like regular folks, its the po-po. I hope that this changes . How can we bridge the gap between black African-American males and white cops?”

Of course, the divider in Chief had to bring up police racial biases and put the onus on the police, rather than maybe the fact may be that the issue lies with young black males. Never did he mention that more black males are killed by black males in black on black crime, not the police. Hmm, also absent was the fact that the DOJ lawyers are stating that no civil rights charges are being brought against Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson.

However, I’ll give her credit for this question. Glozell must have caused some heart palpitations with WH staffers when she pressed Obama over his Cuba policy, saying that Fidel Castro “puts the dick in dictatorship.”

Remember when former President Ronald Reagan never took off his jacket off while in the Oval office when he was in the White House out of respect for it? Remember those days?

The Blaze:

President Barack Obama said police officers need to be aware of their “biases” when it comes to black men and vowed to put “federal muscle” behind improving police practices and training.

During a series of interviews with YouTube personalities Thursday, one of the interviewers, GloZell Green, said she “cut all the hoods” off of her husband’s hoodies because, “I’m afraid when he goes outside, that somebody might shoot and kill him.”

“And it’s not, like, regular folks. It’s the po-po,” she said. “How can we bridge the gap between black, African-American males and white cops?”

“First of all, we always have to remind ourselves that the overwhelming majority of police officers, they are doing a really tough job and they’re doing it well,” Obama said. “What we also know is that there are still biases in our society, that in split-second situations when people have to make quick decisions, that studies have shown African-American males are seen as more threatening, which puts them in a more vulnerable position. Young African-American males are typically seen as older than they are.”

“A lot of the ways to solve this is to improve training so that people can be aware of their biases ahead of time,” Obama said.

 Sadly it appears that the missing six family members of the Pyle family may have all been in the mansion at the time of the fire …

Two more bodies have been recovered from the charred ruins of an Annapolis area mansion following the terrible fire that burned the multimillion dollar home to the ground. The bodies have been sent to Baltimore, MD for an autopsy to identify the individuals. Earlier in the week, two other bodies were recovered as well. There was no mention at the time as to the identity of those victims, or if they were adults or children. Two more family members remain unaccounted for; however, it ids sad to say that they most likely perished in the fire also.

Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke Says About Al Sharpton … “Shut Up And Go Back To The Gutter You Came From”

FREE SPEECH HERO OF THE DAY …

This morning on Fox & Friends, Milwaukee, WI Sheriff David Clarke said that following the news that the DOJ will not bring civil rights charges against Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson, that he is owed an apology from Barack Obama, Eric Holder and Al Sharpton. Sheriff David Clarke further went on to say that this whole thing, ‘Hands up, don’t shoot’ was based on a lie. He blistered Al Sharpton in a major way.

“I don’t expect anything intelligent to come out of the mouth of Al Sharpton. We all know he is a charlatan, for the matter of fact, the next intelligent thing that comes from his mouth will be the first. Al Sharpton ought to just   shut up and go back to the gutter that he came from. Apologize, he will not do that. But the American police officer is owed a lot from him, from Eric Holder and the president of the United States.”

Speaker John Boehner Invites Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu to Address Joint Session of Congress Regarding Iran

Let’s give Speaker John Boehner credit, where credit is due … Good for you Boehner, Feels good to do the right thing for America, doesn’t it?

Speaker of the House, John Boehner (R-OH), invites Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before a joint session of Congress next month on February 11 to discussing Iran, further sanctions against them and the threat that a nuclear Iran poses to the world. Boehner said in a private meeting of GOP lawmakers that Congress would proceed on further penalties against Iran despite Obama’s warning,  “[Obama] expects us to stand idly by and do nothing while he cuts a bad deal with Iran. Two words: ‘Hell no!’ We’re going to do no such thing.” It is about time the GOP has stood up to this imperial president. This is why the voters have put in place a Republican House and Senate, to block the far left and dangerous policies and agenda of Barack Obama. This all has to do with Obama threats and threats of a veto if the Congress passes further sanctions against Iran. However, there is wide bi-partisan support in favor of sanctions as Democrats are on board with protected America against Iran.

What is the Obama’s White House issue … a breech of protocol and poking Obama in the eye. Breach of protocol. are you serious? Wasn’t this the same White House that solicited British Prime Minister David Cameron to call US politicians on this very same topic of sanctions against Iran? Isn’t it amazing that Obama and his lackeys are more interested in protocol and Obama’s feelings than US national and world security.

Boehner Invites Netanyahu to Address Congress

“The Congress can make its decision on its own” — but he also insisted, “I don’t believe I’m poking anyone in the eye.”
“There is a serious threat that exists in the world, and the president last night kind of papered over it,” Boehner said.
“And the fact is is that there needs to be a more serious conversation in America about how serious the threat is from radical Islamic jihadists and the threat posed by Iran.”

Speaker of the House – John Boehner:

“Prime Minister Netanyahu is a great friend of our country, and this invitation carries with it our unwavering commitment to the security and well-being of his people,” Boehner said.  “In this time of challenge, I am asking the Prime Minister to address Congress on the grave threats radical Islam and Iran pose to our security and way of life.  Americans and Israelis have always stood together in shared cause and common ideals, and now we must rise to the moment again.”

White House spokesman Josh Earnest responded to the news with the following. Ha, the Obama WH is worried about protocol, maybe they should concern themselves more with the US Constitution.

“The typical protocol would suggest that the leader of a country would contact the leader of another country when he’s traveling there,” said White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest. “That certainly is how President Obama’s trips are planned when he travels overseas. This particular event seems to be a departure from that protocol.”

Earnest said the White House was made aware of the invitation before Boehner’s office released a letter dated Jan. 21 inviting Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress on Feb. 11.

Eric Holder’s DOJ to Drop Civil Rights Charges Brought Against Officer Darren Wilson in Shooting Death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO

Imagine this, FBI investigation finds no evidence to support the trumped up, political, race baiting charges against police officer Darren Wilson.

The New York Times is reporting that the Eric Holder Department of Justice will drop the civil rights charges against Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson. DOJ lawyers will recommend that no civil rights charges be brought against officer Wilson in the shooting death of black teenager Michael Brown. The FBI investigation has concluded what all normal thinking, non-race baiting individuals knew from the outset of this story, there was no evidence to support the trumped up charges. Remember when the DOJ told Ferguson police officers they could not wear bracelets in support of officer Wilson? Support for an officer that was guilty of nothing.

But, the Ferguson, Mo police department remains in the cross-hairs of the DOJ.

VIDEO – CNN

Justice Department lawyers will recommend that no civil rights charges be brought against the police officer who fatally shot an unarmed teenager in Ferguson, Mo., after an F.B.I. investigation found no evidence to support charges, law enforcement officials said Wednesday.

Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. and his civil rights chief, Vanita Gupta, will have the final say on whether the Justice Department will close the case against the officer, Darren Wilson. But it would be unusual for them to overrule the prosecutors on the case, who are still working on a legal memo explaining their recommendation.

A decision by the Justice Department would bring an end to the politically charged investigation of Mr. Wilson in the death of 18-year-old Michael Brown. The Missouri authorities concluded their investigation into Mr. Brown’s death in November and also recommended against charges.

After the Ferguson grand jury decided not to bring criminal charges against officer Wilson, Eric Holder went to Ferguson, Mo to fan the flames of racism and racial divide. Holder announced that his DOJ would investigate Wilson on civil rights charges, because the vigilante, race-baiting crowd wanted their scalp. Holder said that the Justice Department’s investigation into Mr. Brown’s death would be independent from the one conducted by the local authorities. The race-baiter in Chief, Barack Obama said  after St. Louis County prosecutor Bob McCulloch announced the grand jury’s decision, “I have done what the Missouri judicial system and even my own Justice Department failed to do in order to right this wrong.”

What will the reaction be from Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, the NAACP, NBPP and Barack Obama? Will Eric Holder make a public statement and apologize for destroying the reputation of a fine police officer just because of his color?

13 Year Old Eliana Perkins Missing Since 1/16/15 in Seattle, WA

13 year old Eliana Perkins has been missing since Friday, January 16, 2015 in Seattle, Washington. Eliana was last seen by her friends Friday afternoon, getting in a white Honda with a man in his 30′s near South Lake High School. Her relatives have reportedly been told by another child that the man is of Mexican descent, with ‘a scar on his nose and black eyes’. Perkins was  attending South Lake High School for a middle school re-entry program after getting suspended for behavioral issues. Witnesses also saw the man drop Perkins off at school that morning, her mom says. I guess she has more issues than her mother even was aware of.

Five days after a 13-year-old girl disappeared from outside her school, her mother’s fear is mounting with no word on her whereabouts.

Friends of Eliana Perkins last saw her Friday afternoon, getting in a white Honda with a man in his 30s near South Lake High School. Her mom has no idea who the man might be.

“I have no idea how she got with him or why she is with him,” Genel Perkins said. “His motives can’t be good if he’s with a 13-year old girl.”

Seattle police tweeted the teen’s photo Tuesday, asking for help locating her.

Description:

On Tuesday, Seattle Police Department took to Twitter to appeal for help in tracking down the missing teenager, who was apparently standing at a bus stop on the road when she climbed into the car.

The force tweeted: ‘Missing: Eliana Perkins. 13yo 5’2/120. Last seen 1/16 getting into wht Honda w/man in 30s on MLK Wy. Call 911 w/info.’

Eliana was reportedly wearing a black NorthFace wind breaker jacket, a black knitted sweater, black snowflake printed leggings and grey Ugg boots when she vanished at 2.30pm.

Anyone with information can call police on 911 or Crime Stoppers on 1-800-222-TIPS.
