A tiger snake has been captured on camera using an electrical fence surrounding a winery as a tightrope to his next destination.In footage posted to Facebook on the Bangor Vineyard Shed page on Tuesday, the snake is seen slithering along the wire near Dunalley in Tasmania's south east.'The things you see out on the farm,' the videos caption read.'I guess when you are a snake for a living then it's quite cool to get a perspective from a new angle now and then. But that really does look like an awkward way to get around.'Matt Dunbabin from Bangor Vineyard Shed said his farm staff enjoy seeing the snakes out on the farm but it was the first time one was spotted climbing anything, let alone a wire fence.'It was definitely a fascinating thing to see — what great poise and balance. After I took the video he continued on his merry way, and I guess he climbed back down to the ground when he'd had enough up there,' Mr Dunbabin wrote.The video has been shared more than 26,000 times while garnering over 4,400 comments.Natalie Rivers from Reptile Rescue Incorporated said she was impressed by the deadly snake's ability to balance.'They are very good climbers, although I've got to admit I've never seen one travel across the top of a wire like that.'

Obama-Era FBI Official’s Secret Mission Revealed, Disgraceful!

Published on February 13, 2018

An investigative team hired by embattled website BuzzFeed and helmed by a former Obama-era FBI official has been feverishly working for six months to try to verify parts of the notoriously “unverified” Trump-Russia dossier. So far, the investigation, which is running parallel with Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s politicized Russia probe, has not offered any of its findings.

Foreign Policy reports that according to “four sources familiar with different aspects of the ongoing probe,” BuzzFeed’s team of investigators at FTI Consulting — headed up by Anthony Ferrante the former director for cyber incident response at the U.S. National Security Council under the Obama administration — has been “traveling the globe on a secret mission to verify parts of the Trump dossier.”

BuzzFeed hired Ferrante and FTI in response to a lawsuit over its decision to publish the scandalous, unverified dossier, which includes some outlandish accusations, like Trump supposedly hiring hookers to urinate on a bed that the Obamas slept on, as well as an accusation that servers belonging to a company owned by Russian technology executive Aleksej Gubarev were used to hack the DNC’s computers in 2016.

The latter accusation is one source of BuzzFeed’s ongoing legal headache. Gubarev is suing the outlet for recklessly publishing the document without confirming its claims. In January, BuzzFeed was slapped with another lawsuit, this one from Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen, who is similarly accusing BuzzFeed of publishing the document containing false claims about him.

Obama’s Portrait Painter Has Long ‘Predatory,’ ‘Perverse’ History Of Hiding Sperm In Paintings

Published 4 hours ago By Stirling Preston on February 14, 2018

Dawson also pointed out that several of his pieces include sperm worked into their backgrounds or subjects. Wiley’s rendition of “St. Andrew,” for example, shows a black man grinding “his crotch against a wooden cross” with “free-floating spermatozoa” painted on the canvas, Dawson wrote. So, tell us Obama… you have so much in common with this pervert… what was it? The racism? The violence? The hatred of Christianity? Or was it the perversion itself? Just wondering. What a disgrace this is for Americans. It was already in stark contrast to portraits of previous presidents and now it is a sick, perverse joke that will reside among the past great leaders of America.

Wiley’s ‘special touch’ can be seen on Obama himself. The vein in his forehead is depicted as a sperm. The discovery set the Internet on fire yesterday. “When I’m approaching these guys, there’s a presupposed engagement,” Wiley told Art Newspaper in 2008. “I don’t ask people what their sexualities are, but there’s a sense in which male beauty is being negotiated.” Right. But art blog Mrs. Sawyer’s Opus pointed out that, “in the majority of the critiques of his work, nowhere is it discussed the blatant sexual and homoerotic overtones of Wiley’s images.”

BOMBSHELL Drops About Obama Admins Involvement With Dossier    02/13/2018 Source: Town Hall  by: Matt Vespa 

The Senate Judiciary Committee is giving former Obama National Security Adviser Susan Rice until February 22 to answer questions relating to an email she sent to herself prior to exiting from the Obama administration. It occurred during President Trump's inauguration. The email contains classified information, so it's a partial disclosure from the Judiciary Committee, but it seems to show that on January 5, 2017, then-President Obama, Vice President Biden, then-FBI Director James Comey, and then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates had a meeting in the Oval Office about the fallout from the Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Trump and Russia. Why would they want him?  By Kelly  Feb 13, 2018

If you look at Trump’s policy and actis, why would the Russians want Trump?

If you listen to the mainstream media, you will undoubtedly hear them scream Russia, Russia, Russia. They still have not produced one shred of evidence that President Donald Trump collaborated with the Russian government in any way, but the longer the investigation goes on, the more it looks like the DNC and the Clinton campaign had more to do with Russians than the Trump campaign. However, in their rush to name Trump a “Russian” plant, they forgot to look at one thing, actual policy.

ENERGY

The greatest strategic weapon Russia has is not its nuclear weapons, cyber forces, or 20,000 combat tanks. The most significant strategic weapon Russia possesses is the oil and natural gas residing within its borders. According to the most recent report from the U.S. Energy Information Agency, “Russia was the world’s largest producer of crude oil including lease condensate and the third largest producer of petroleum and other liquids (after Saudi Arabia and the United States) in 2016

Media frenzy after Sessions notes law enforcement's 'Anglo-American' heritage    FOX News Samuel Chamberlain

The Justice Department pushed back strongly Monday after critics, including some in the media, claimed Attorney General Jeff Sessions used racist language when he addressed a group of sheriffs.

Sessions told the National Sheriffs Association, "The office of sheriff is a critical part of the Anglo-American heritage of law enforcement."

The "Anglo-American heritage" part of Sessions' comment caught the eye of writers at a number of media outlets. Newsweek headlined a story with "Jeff Sessions faces fresh racism charge after praising 'Anglo-American Heritage' of law enforcement."

There was even more outrage on social media. Time magazine national correspondent Charlotte Alter tweeted that Sessions' statement was proof that "our justice system is rooted in white supremacy."

Provided by Fox News Attorney General Jeff Sessions addresses the National Sheriffs' Association Winter Conference Monday in Washington.

Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, tweeted that the remarks were "a dog whistle" and "appalling," while actress Alyssa Milano said that Sessions should be "fired immediately."

DOJ officials were quick to point out that Sessions was referring to the precedent-based English common law system that forms the basis of the American legal code.

"As most law students learn in the first week of their first year, Anglo-American law – also known as the common law – is a shared legal heritage between England and America,” spokesman Ian Prior said in a statement. "The sheriff is unique to that shared legal heritage. Before reporters sloppily imply nefarious meaning behind the term, we would suggest that they read any number of the Supreme Court opinions that use the term. Or they could simply put 'Anglo-American law' into Google."

In 2009, then-President Barack Obama cited the "Anglo-American legal system" while discussing his administration's approach to law enforcement, CBS News reported. In 2016, Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Bill Baer used the term "Anglo-American" during a speech in China with no apparent controversy.

Fox News' Jake Gibson contributed to this report.

Trump's daughter-in-law hospitalized after exposure to white powder

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Vanessa Trump, the wife of Donald Trump Jr., was taken to a hospital on Monday after complaining of nausea when she was exposed to an unidentified white powder that came in the mail, a police spokesman said.
U.S. authorities have been on alert for mail with white powder in it since 2001, when envelopes laced with anthrax were sent to media outlets and U.S. lawmakers, killing five people.

Actor Bill Murray Explains The Failure Of Democrats – “Pick Out Little Pieces Of The Population”

Actor and comedian Bill Murray recently gave an interview to CNBC in which he described identity politics as the downfall of Democrats. He also seemed very concerned about how political correctness is dangerous to comedy.

Here are a few of the key quotes from the segment:

BILL MURRAY: People are trying to win their point of view as opposed to saying: What if I spoke to everyone? My friend who’s a great comedy writer Jim Downey, he’s accused of being a right wing writer, a comedy writer if there is such a thing. He says: No, I just think the way Democrats handle things is poor, the way they try to pick out little pieces of the population, we represent the Hispanics, we represent the LGBT or something and they’re not speaking to everyone at once.

That is a description of left wing identity politics in a nutshell. People on the left are probably going to be very unhappy with Murray for making these accurate statements because it exposes exactly what Democrats do.

SEAN HANNITY: The Senate releases 'Memo 2.0,' and it should scare you

Hot on the heels of the House memo exposing deep state corruption comes an equally explosive document from the Senate that shows the story behind the phony dossier is even worse than you thought.

Senators Chuck Grassley and Lindsey Graham have released a heavily redacted, yet very revealing copy of their criminal referral against ex-British spy Christopher Steele, the author of the dubious dossier we now know was parlayed into a FISA warrant by Trump-hating operatives at the Justice Department.

Grassley and Graham tell us that, while working on a second dossier for Clinton opposition research firm Fusion GPS, Steele was being fed information directly from the Obama State Department and from Clinton allies as well as his usual, sketchy Russian sources. That’s right, teams Clinton and Obama were working with a foreign spy to undermine then-candidate Donald Trump.

" … Mr. Steele's memorandum states that his company received this report from (redacted), U.S. State Department, and that the report was the second in the series, and that the report was information that came from a foreign sub source who is in touch with a contact of (redacted), a friend of the Clintons who passed it to (redacted).”

The Grassley-Graham memo goes on to say “it's troubling enough that the Clinton campaign funded Mr. Steele's work, but [worse] that these Clinton associates were contemporaneously feeding Mr. Steele's allegations. It raises huge additional concerns about his credibility."

So, in addition to Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee paying $12 million for a phony, fake-news Russian propaganda dossier to influence the election, we now learn that her associates and the Obama State Department teamed up with Russian sources to funnel allegations to Steele for a second dossier.

The senators are also accusing Christopher Steele of lying either to the FBI or to the British courts.

"There is substantial evidence suggesting that Mr. Steele materially misled the FBI about a key aspect of his dossier efforts, one which bears on his credibility," they wrote.

This Grassley-Graham memo also details how Steele was using his first phony dossier to brief several mainstream media outlets, you know, the folks who bring you fake news, in the summer and the fall of 2016. British court records show Steele acknowledged he peddled his memo to The New York Times, Washington Post, Yahoo News, The New Yorker, and, of course, CNN.

However, since he was working for the FBI, he would have been barred from leaking to the media. In fact, the FBI later cut ties with him when it learned he had broken the rule. So who did he lie to, the FBI or the British courts?

It’s hard to keep all the memos and dossiers straight. If you’re scoring at home, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence released a memo over the objections of Democrats and the media that showed how the FBI used Steele’s first dossier to get a federal warrant to spy on people close to Trump. The Democrats hope to release their own “memo,” which is not a memo at all but just a sour-grapes rebuttal to the committee’s. The Grassley-Graham memo is a third document that tells us Obama and Clinton operatives fed Steele information to try to damage Trump.

The dossiers, and there are apparently two of them, were cooked up by Steele and are completely unverified claptrap. Yet, the FBI marched one of them into a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and presented it as evidence. Months later, then FBI Director James Comey admitted it was completely unverified.

And here's what the left and your corrupt media won't tell you: the FISA judge was never told that Hillary Clinton was paying for the phony dossier containing Russian intelligence lies about Donald Trump. And they don’t seem to care that it was first used to try to influence an election, then to get a warrant to spy on an opposition candidate.

The incestuous ties between Fusion, Steele, the Clinton campaign and the Obama Justice Department are alarming. Clinton hired Fusion, which hired Steele. Steele was working with the FBI at the same time. The wife of a top Justice Department official, Bruce Ohr, was hired by Fusion to work with Steele.

The goal of the whole, unseemly syndicate? To launder Russian lies about Donald Trump through the U.S. government, so they could weaponize our own intelligence and law enforcement network against the man who now sits in the Oval Office.

You should be scared. And disgusted.

A Biblical view on the "DREAMERS" and illegal immigration........

The True Biblical Response to Illegal Immigration and DREAMers   Arthur Schaper   Posted: Feb 11, 2018

My Congressman Ted Lieu (D-Torrance) hosted another error-ridden town hall in Hermosa Beach last week. On immigration, he claimed to support two parts of President Trump’s proposed(?) plan: granting legal status to 1.8 million young illegals; and enhancing border security (although Lieu called the border wall “stupid”). He differed on ending chain migration and the diversity lottery. He quoted the Bible in his defense: “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in.” (Matthew 25:35).

My response: “Then take them into your home!” Amnesty advocates preach their open-border morality, but don’t live up to it. Moreover, Jesus’ statement is directed toward individuals who welcomed strangers into their own homes voluntarily. Any form of amnesty imposed by our government is not voluntary.

My consternation with these Biblical arguments has grown since reading this article in the Christian Post, when evangelical leaders, many of whom I respect, pressured Congress to pass some kind of DREAM Act.

I wanted to post something about the "memo" even considered writing it myself, but I'm glad I didn;t cause I'm sure I couldn't have competed with this article by Bruce Bialosky (Townhall Daily) although this pretty much sums up what I think on the whole situation. "A NOTHING BURGER"

What They Will Not Tell You About 'The Memo'  Bruce Bialosky  Posted: Feb 11, 2018

I am no Shakespearean scholar, but I do know the line from Hamlet: “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.“ That is what came to mind leading up to the release of the Intelligence Committee “FISA memo.” There were many who did not want us to see it, but there is a lot they still are not telling us.

When the memo was released I devoured it. After all, the buildup was monumental. The head of the FBI, Christopher Wray, had spent a reported hour and a half reading it. Then he sent over to two more people to review the memo – one each from the Bureau’s counterintelligence and legal divisions. I read it. It took seven minutes.

Any person who has been following the developments of the Russian Saga learned virtually nothing new. The players had become as familiar as my local baseball team. There were maybe two revelations in here:

1. A positive confirmation that the Steele Dossier was submitted to a judge as if it were not a work of fiction.

2. That Andrew McCabe, then the second in command at the FBI, told a Congressional committee there would have been no FISA submittal without the dossier.

There were no “sources and methods” as maliciously stated by Adam Schiff (D-CA) who is the minority leader on the Intelligence committee. There was little that had not been leaked by both sides.

What are they not telling you:

1. We are not grown up enough to know basic facts about what is a major investigation hanging over a presidential administration from Day One. Only the insiders and their favored members of the press are deemed worthy of knowing the facts.

2. Because the press must protect the establishment they are supposed to investigate, they will not point out the obvious: if the establishment is hyperventilating over the public reading a memo crafted by members of a congressional committee responsible for oversight, then what are they really hiding?

This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things Derek Hunter Posted: Feb 11, 2018

To say our culture has gone to Hell in a handbasket is like saying the sun is hot. Every day, and sometimes it seems like every hour, there is a new example that is enough to make you want to pack up and leave the country. In the past few weeks it seems like that handbasket is speeding up.

In the political world, which shockingly isn’t remotely close to the worst parts of what is happening in the country right now, things keep finding new and creative ways to devolve into the absurd. The latest example is the story of how the National Security Agency wasted $100,000 of our tax dollars trying to “buy” compromising information from an alleged Russian agent about President Trump. The information didn’t exist (the money did), but the details of what is was supposed to be are straight out of Congressman Adam Schiff’s dreams.

But this isn’t about politics, the current political climate is what grows out of what the culture as a whole has become. And while every generation undoubtedly had valid complaints about the pop culture of their time, there is no way, even in the era of bell-bottoms and pet rocks, the popular culture at the time was a dumb as it is now.

People are filming themselves eating laundry detergent and posting the videos online, because being stupid for attention is now something people aspire to.

First off, if you’re dumb enough to eat poison, the genepool can do without you. That may seem harsh, but it’s coming from a place of contempt. Second, states are now considering legislation to make Tide Pods less delicious looking. If you’re an adult, or old enough to know you shouldn’t eat laundry detergent, and still choose to do it because it has bright colors, you’re probably going to be killed making out with a light socket or taking a nap in traffic. This is the kind of dumb that is lucky breathing is a reflex, because they’d forget; the type of stupid Velcro shoes were created for.

Perhaps that will offend some Tide Pod Challengers, but it’s unlikely they can read anyway. 

INVESTIGATING THE MESSENGER #HEADSMUSTROLL
February 09, 2018  George Rasley

As our friend and former Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew C. McCarthy observed in an article for National Review, the Nunes memo states that the Australian report “triggered the opening of an FBI counterintelligence investigation in late July 2016 by FBI agent Peter Strzok.” This prompted a celebratory assertion by the New York Times that this “confirms” that actions taken by Papadopoulos “were a factor in the opening of the [Trump-Russia] investigation” — a storyline the Times started pushing after it became known that the dossier that drove the Trump-Russia narrative was partisan opposition research.

The problem for the New York Times and others on the Left is that in a logical universe the allegation that a foreign government had “dirt” or compromising information on a former U.S. Secretary of State and current presidential candidate would trigger a counter intelligence investigation of who; the messenger or the allegedly compromised official?

The compromised official of course.

But the Obama-era FBI and Department of Justice operated according to political logic, not counterintelligence logic, so if, how or when Hillary Clinton might have been compromised was irrelevant.

High school science fair project questioning African American intelligence sparks outrage    Sacramento Bee .......Diana Lambert And Anita Chabria

Students, parents and staff at C.K. McClatchy High School are upset over a science fair project by a student in its elite magnet program that questioned whether certain races of people lack the intelligence to handle the program's academically challenging coursework.

Some of those outraged by the racially charged project say it points to a larger problem: the lack of ethnic diversity in the school's elite HISP program.

The project that started the controversy was titled "Race and IQ." It raised the hypothesis: "If the average IQs of blacks, Southeast Asians, and Hispanics are lower than the average IQs of non-Hispanic whites and Northeast Asians, then the racial disproportionality in (HISP) is justified."

The project was put on display with others on Monday afternoon to be judged by a team of community members as part of the fourth annual Mini Science Fair. It was removed Wednesday morning after students, parents and staff complained. The science fair was open to students and parents.

The controversial project also included a bibliography and quotes from five books, one a text from 1904 called "The Essential Kafir" that argued South African blacks were intellectually inferior to whites. The term "kaffir" has since evolved into a racial slur in South Africa, where it is sometimes referred to as the "k-word."

"I think that a lot of people, especially of color, are really hurt and upset by this," said Chrysanthe Vidal, a senior in the HISP program.

She said the student who prepared the report has a history of making racist remarks in class. He is described by peers as a boy of Asian descent and a participant in the accelerated Humanities and International Studies program, or HISP. The Sacramento Bee did not speak to the student and is not identifying the minor.
