Opinion

A perfect storm Let me describe the “arena” for you:

Republicans have majorities in both House & Senate.

House Republicans already have a simple majority required for Articles of

Impeachment.

Senate Republicans need 11 additional votes for a Super Majority needed for

Conviction and Removal from office.

Netanyahu won re-election – stronger than before

Obama exposed for funding & staffing opposition to Netanyahu’s election

A majority of Senators oppose Iran Deal (59)

360 Members of the House signed an Iran Nuclear Deal opposition letter to Obama.

House Republicans have a Super Majority (290) against the Iran Deal.

Defiant FOIA rules // Executive Privilege will backfire

AP is suing State Department for FOIA files

ATF M855 Ball Ammo ban forced off the floor by public criticism.

ATF Director resigns.

A.G. Eric Holder has resigned.

Opposition to A.G. Loretta Lynch nomination grows

Obama terminated Hagel as Sec. of Defense. Now on 4th in 6 years.

Pentagon Spokesman, Adm. John Kirby, stepped down.

Dan Pfeiffer & Jennifer Palmieri of WH staff stepped down.

FDA Commissioner, Margaret Hamburg stepped down.

Obama has antagonized the Courts over Amnesty

Obama will have to go up against Constitutional Attorney, Jonathan Turley.

Congress reining in the EPA and its secret science.

Judicial Watch indicates there are 18 FOIA lawsuits against the White House

26 States have entered a joint lawsuit against Obama’s Executive Amnesty.

Hillary lackluster campaign, credibility gap, possible criminal proceedings.

No good backup Dem Candidates for 2016

Harry Reid no longer Majority Leader, after injury.

Cheney’s scathing interview

Valerie Jarrett’s role in Iran Deal still unchallenged.

Congressional Budget cuts $5.5 Trillion

Sequester is an Obama “unforced error”

Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act

Obama has angered the Jews, Catholics, the Armed Services, the Small Business

Community, some Blacks, and any number of folks who have lost their healthcare or

receive less service at greater expense.

The more we squeeze Obama – the more he complains.

The “front” is building. “Clouds” are piling up and the “forces of nature” are

at work. Tornadic events are coming.

OMG!

Always remember: The president is personally liable for his cabinet and other administrative staff under the “High Crimes & Misdemeanors” clause. If Obama knew of the private email address and did nothing about it – he is culpable along with Hillary.

[Iran] Obama ready to enlist foreign aid against America's representatives Reuters reported last week that major world powers led by the Obama administration "have begun talks about a United Nations Security Council resolution to lift U.N. sanctions on Iran if a nuclear agreement is struck with Tehran, a step that could make it harder for the U.S. Congress to undo a deal." This has now been confirmed by the White House. (Whose side is Obama on, anyway? This is willful intent to undermine Senate’s authority. Arguably unconstitutional)

[Amnesty] White House makes aggressive legal push on immigration A battle over a lawsuit filed by Texas and 25 other states, most led by Republicans, has put Obama’s programs in peril.

Former White House Advisor: Obama Was ’Angry’ After Senate Killed Gun Control Former Senior White House advisor Dan Pfeiffer admits that one of President Obama’s angriest moments in the White House was after the Senate blocked his push for gun control. (Gun Control doesn’t rank with ObamaCare on priorities – yet he was the angry-est Dan Pfeiffer had seen.

Obama administration sets new record for denying, censoring government files The government took longer to turn over files when it provided any, said more regularly that it couldn't find documents, and refused a record number of times to turn over files quickly that might be especially newsworthy.

[Fast Track] Dem: Trade officials ‘baffling’ lawmakers ‘with bullshit’ Rep.

Fast & Furious is still an open investigation 4 ½ years after fatal shooting of Border Patrol Agent, Brian Terry (Dec. 2010)

ObamaCare - pending Supreme Court heard King vs. Burwell. Verdict expected late June.

Republicans move closer to ObamaCare fallback Budget proposals from the House and Senate are moving the GOP closer to a fallback plan if Supreme Court strikes down billions of ObamaCare subsidies later this spring. Both chambers’ budget proposals include an obscure but powerful budget tool known as reconciliation, which allows committees to write bills that can’t be filibustered in the Senate http://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/236147-both-chambers-relying-on-reconciliation-to-prepare-for-obamacare-case

National Debt – pending

It's ShowTime for the GOP budget fight Much of the fighting will center on budget negotiations, which get underway formally this week and are meant to outline funding priorities for the coming fiscal year and set limits on spending. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/its-showtime-for-the-gop-budget-fight/article/2561439

Federal agencies made $125 BILLION in improper payments last year

The level of improper payments was a new high after several years of declines. In addition to fraud, the errors included overpayments and underpayments, as well payments made without proper documentation. While the errors were spread among 22 federal agencies, three programs stood out: Medicare, Medicaid and the Earned Income Tax Credit. (How about correcting the incompetence in Washington rather than raise the Debt Limit. Punishment would work wonders on behavior modification! This is intolerable). http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/03/16/federal-agencies-made-125b-in-improper-payments-last-year/

Out in the Bush ***************************

Town hall with Rep. Ken Buck – I attended the informal town hall at the Pegasus in Castle Rock on Friday. It was packed. I came away with mixed feelings: There was a landslide of questions about both House and Senate. Cromnibus, Homeland Security, Executive Amnesty, VA service and Veteran’s Choice Program and so on. The questions reflected the anticipated anger over the Congress’ failure to muster the votes to advance the GOP agenda – despite having conservative majorities in both chambers. The ouster of Spkr. Boehner was again brought up. Although I think it unfair that all this was laid in Ken

Buck’s lap, the hope would be he will take the message back to Washington and his peers. Editor

Feckless! I am so disgusted with the “new GOP” that I WILL NOT DONATE any

money to the conservative establishment, GOP, NRSC, Freedom Caucus, etc. until they “show me the meat”. Promises of more effective Leadership have woefully disappointed. We must not confuse activity with accomplishment – to quote the famous phrase. I am besieged by calls, emails, and letters asking for money. I have no idea how that money is spent. We still don’t get results. I know this hurts the young Turks in congresses who I admire and who really do stand for something. Better get the message to them early and not at Primary time. I see that Glenn Beck has bailed from the GOP too. PS: The GOP still owes me a Dick Cheney Limited Cowboy Hat after I donated back in mid-December~

And here is another reason I won’t donate to the University of California Alumni

Foundation. Besides the fact they hired Janet Napolitano as President of the University System – was 9 campuses when I was there – asked Barack Obama to speak at commencement in 2014, and Irvine campus refused to fly the American Flag in their buildings – now they want to rename a building after a Black Panther who killed a cop. She was the first woman to appear on the FBI 10 MOST WANTED LIST.

I spent 10 years at 4 of the University of California campuses and received 3 degrees. An aunt, Carolyn Babcock, had an international dormatory building named in her behalf as part of a Presbyterian effort. I’ll be damned if I will support an institution of higher learning that has no better scruples than this!

Stop the Boehner-Pelosi Doc Fix Bill

Nancy Pelosi and John Boehner want to increase America’s debt by $400 billion. That’s right. Even though he has a historic Republican majority, House Speaker Boehner is working with Nancy Pelosi to add hundreds of billions to our national debt. This is irresponsible and unsustainable. It’s a huge win for Barack Obama and the spending extremists in Washington. > > Call your lawmaker and tell them to say no to increasing our nation’s debt. The Boehner-Pelosi scheme will be moving to the House floor sometime next week. We must tell lawmakers to vote “NO” on the Boehner-Pelosi “doc fix” bill. They’ll say this is how you reform entitlements, but entitlement reform shouldn’t increase spending. Tell your representative that Congress must make cuts to pay for their spending, rather than increasing our nation’s debt.

Make the urgent call to your lawmaker today. Sincerely,

Russ Vought Vice President Heritage Action for America

Scandal Sheet -1st of the Month Issue Obama’s threat of “considering corporate tax hike” is not a scandal (yet).

Obama’s threat to prohibit M855 ball ammunition in .223 caliber is not a scandal (yet).

Presidential influence on the FCC’s Net Neutrality, if verified, is a scandal.

Iran Nuclear Negotiations is a scandal – both the alleged content and the manner in which it was negotiated)

President Obama’s argument the United Nations should abandon the protection of Israel and to circumvent Congress in doing so – is appalling.

Hillary Clinton’s private (non-governmental) email and server is a scandal (just not presidential)… not until Obama attempts to excuse or cover it up.

Obama is considering making voting – “mandatory”
