    Proof of Hillary’s Cover-Up Discovered by Citizen-Journalist! Jay GuySeptember 22, 2016 In a day and age when government and media are larger than ever, an America-loving citizen has discovered what the Department of Justice and mainstream media have been unable (or unwillingly) to un-earth: Proof that Hillary Clinton conspired to cover up her “un-wise” use of a private server and email scandal. Through the power of social media, a Twitter user @GOPPollAnalyst has pieced together compelling evidence that has reached the House Oversight Committee who have begun a new investigation. Paul Combetta, the IT specialist hired by Hillary Clinton during...

    Are Humans Using Up Too Much Sun? By Alan Caruba Toogood Reports [Tuesday, February 5, 2002; 12:01 a.m. EST] URL: http://ToogoodReports.com/ "The energy of the sun, captured by plants and passed on to animals, powers everything in our world — dolphins leaping out of the ocean, geese moving across the sky, people stirring their morning oatmeal." So says Elizabeth Sawin. Her article, published in Grist Magazine, was entitled "There Goes the Sun: humans are gobbling up too much of the sun´s energy." Now, if this strikes you as too stupid to deserve comment, you´re right. On the other hand, I ...

    Issue Date: December 17, 2001 The Last Word Posted Nov. 9, 2001 By Ralph de Toledano The next time "environmentalist" saboteurs launch a campaign against Alaskan oil drilling — or any other project to improve life in these United States — they should be encouraged to review the videotapes of the collapsing World Trade Center twin towers. "You are not responsible for the terrorist attack," the enviros should be told, "but you are directly responsible for the collapse of the towers and the related loss of more than 5,000 lives." Is this true? These are the facts: When the ...

    News October 17, 2001 Anthrax Cases Shut Down US House of Representatives, Hoaxes Reach Sweden Anthrax shut down the US House of Representatives on Wednesday, after 31 Senate staff members tested positive for exposure to the substance. A string of hoaxes worldwide reached Sweden, meanwhile, where tests on Thursday showed that a powder sent to government offices contained no anthrax, said reports. The anthrax threat appeared to be most serious in the US, where the discovery of exposure among Senate staff members took place alongside revelations from the governor of New York that traces of the deadly bacteria was ...

    October 14 2001 TERRORISM An anguished John le Carré says we wasted our cold war victory and are now assisting our enemy October 8, 2001. The bombing begins, screams today's headline of the normally restrained Guardian. Battle joined, echoes the equally cautious Herald Tribune, quoting George W Bush. But with whom is it joined? And how will it end? How about with Osama Bin Laden in chains, looking more serene and Christlike than ever, arranged before a tribune of his vanquishers with Johnny Cochrane to defend him? The fees won't be a problem, that's for sure. Or how about with ...

    COMMUNISTS BEHIND PROTESTS By Reed Irvine and Cliff Kincaid October 11, 2001 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Communism is still alive in places like China, North Korea and Cuba. But the American people had a chance to see the communists and their fellow travelers in action at the end of September in Washington when protests were held against planned U.S. military action against terrorists. The protests were originally planned against the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, which were scheduled to hold a joint meeting. Once again, the major media failed to uncover the communists and portrayed the protesters as mostly college ...
  • Taliban Try to Shore Up Defenses in Afghanistan

    Taliban Try to Shore Up Defenses in Afghanistan ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Turning to defense rather than negotiation, Afghanistan's ruling Taliban raced on Tuesday to prop up old alliances, woo new friends and retain their own men as they dug in behind the world's top fugitive, Osama bin Laden. With the world's most modern military force gathering against a state modeled on a society that existed more than 1,300 years ago, the puritanical Taliban pitched their crisis as a battle of Islam versus the United States. Reports from within Afghanistan indicated ministers were moving around the country, many traveling from ...

Blair called for "proportionate, targeted" action to eradicate a threat to humanity. He urged delegates to the annual Labour Party conference in the southern city of Brighton - as well as thousands watching on television around the world - to try to understand the evil posed by terrorists.

Ashrawi happens to be the dapper newsman's ex-girlfriend, according to the Washington Post's Tom Shales - who says that's why Jennings indulged her anti-U.S. tirade as thousands of Americans wondered whether they'd lost a ...

BY MARK HELPRIN Wednesday, September 12, 2001 12:00 a.m. EDT America, it is said, is slow to awaken, and indeed it is, but once America stirs, its resolution can be matchless and its ferocity a stunning surprise. The enemy we face today, though barbaric and ingenious, is hardly comparable to the masters of the Third Reich, whose doubts about our ability to persevere we chose to dissuade in a Berlin that we had reduced to rubble. Nor is he comparable to the commanders of the Japanese Empire, ...

Massood, 48, died at 10 a.m. in Khodja Bahauddin in the northern Takhar province, the spokesman, Abdullah, who like many Afghans uses only one name, said in a telephone interview. Since the Sept. 9 suicide attack by two men posing as television journalists, there have been conflicting ...

    AIR SECURITY Knives permitted aboard planes By Sharon L. Crenson, Associated Press, 9/12/2001 EW YORK - Passengers are sometimes allowed to carry knives on board airplanes. That fact, published on the Federal Aviation Administration's Web site, probably played a role in at least three of the four hijackings that ended in disaster yesterday. Barbara Olson, wife of US Solicitor General Theodore Olson, was on the American Airlines flight that crashed into the Pentagon. She told her husband during a cellphone call from the plane that the hijackers were using knifelike instruments. Federal regulations state: ''FAA guidelines allow knives with blades ...

Courtney, the pharmacist accused of diluting chemotherapy drugs, was caught not by a government inspector, but by a drug salesman who noticed Courtney was billing doctors for more medication than he was buying, investigators say. Industry experts say regulatory agencies are so understaffed that catching crooked pharmacists can be a matter of luck. And drug companies cannot be expected to watch every druggist, said Jeffrey Newton, a spokesman for Eli Lilly, maker of the chemotherapy ...

Like Bill Clinton, Gary is a Democrat, a onetime Sunday school boy afflicted with terminal zipper disease, a man eager to give the appearance of sharing the pain of others. But Bill Clinton got away with robbing banks, molesting beauty queens of barely legal age, sexually harassing his aides and constituents, maybe even rape -- and lying to federal courts and grand juries and everyone else about it. Democratic ladies, perhaps enamored of lurid rape fantasies, ...
