When he’s quiet on something, that’s how you know there’s actually stuff churning behind the scenes.

When he starts posting incessantly and memeing a topic, it’s the tell that prosecutions aren’t in the works.

Obama's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today
There was a Checkpoint Charlie
He didn't crack a smile
But it's no laughing party
When you've been on the murder mile
Only takes one itchy trigger
One more widow, one less white n*gger
Obama's Army is here to stay

And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today
Taiwan is up for grabs
London is full of Arabs
We could be in Palestine
Overrun by the Iranian line
With the boys from the AP and the WaPo and the Times
But there's no danger
It's a professional career
Though it could be arranged
With just a word in Ms. Jarrett's ear
If you're out of luck or out of work
We could send you to Johannesburg
Obama's Army is here to stay
Obama's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today

Iran Attacks Israel: Biden to Blame https://t.co/INt1V0Z0v6

Biden tells Iran not to launch an attack. They do it anyways with unprecedented firepower. Biden responds by demanding Israel not retaliate and leaks it to the press as a signal to certain voters.

If that’s not a perfect encapsulation of this admin’s FP, I don’t know what is. https://t.co/NpBIXRkjjW

It’s now pretty clear that the Iranian attack on Israel was an unmitigated disaster for Iran. It was an unbelievable humiliation. The world, and especially the region, saw Iran attempt to flex its muscles and fail miserably. The Arabs who helped Israel backed the strong horse,…

Roseanne's Show Cancelled Over Planet of the Apes Comment

DRUDGE REPORT: ROSEANNE CANCELLED

Roseanne, you should have stopped after your May 28 Memorial Day tweet...

I am no fan of Valerie Jarrett (her family does have ties to Communists and the Muslim Brotherhood), but Roseanne's Jarrett tweet is not particularly funny. Valerie Jarrett's problem is not her looks or her race, but her politics. The Planet of the Apes reference is racist in a stupid, sophomoric, idiotic sort of way. It has a drunken rant quality to it (update: Roseanne claims to have been taking Ambien). It is the sort of thing one might say and the other side gets all gleeful (rather than truly offended) on how they can use it against you. And use it they did.  

I am not sure what triggered Roseanne's tweeting, but now her show is cancelled (despite her apology). Of course, ABC/Disney does have very high standards to meet! ABC is also very sensitive to monkey comments (and yes I know apes are not monkeys).

Roseanne's Problem: She needs to direct her fire where the left wants it...

Powerline: ABC Cancels Roseanne

Lem's Place: Roseanne Replies to ABC

I have a long history of calling out racists, even within my own sect and party. @therealroseanne is no racist.

We need truth, context and to be able to say something is insensitive.

Interesting to see the crossover between people who thought the NFL banning kneeling for the anthem was a First Amendment debacle, but think ABC didn't raise any First Amendment issues by firing Roseanne. (/1)

Valerie Jarrett's Response To Election 2016

TOM: Hating Bisexuals

So is it confirmed Barack Obama and Loretta Lynch will quash any prosecution of Hillary Clinton?

Hot Air/Jazz Shaw: It sure seems that way, but...

Republicans have backed down for now to let the FBI do its job. Is this the beginning of the end of Hillary Clinton's political career or not?  The FBI is not acting that way, working to flip persons around Hillary to get at the bottom of this.  

The media has been mostly protective of Hillary (or at least not treating it as they would if it were a Republican being investigated). The Obama Administration wants a Democrat to take over the White House. My thought has been if Obama can bury this he will (Plan A). Jazz Shaw is absolutely correct on how he is reading those tea leaves. Any indictment of Hillary has to go through Loretta Lynch and Valerie Jarrett (as well as Barack Obama). As much as they loath the Clintons, the Obamas want a Democrat taking over. 

But if it gets too hot politically (since the FBI is not cooperating with the fix), Hillary may not be viable politically. Hillary may be so damaged the Democrats will not want to supporter her anymore. Do the Democrats want to risk a Donald Trump or Ted Cruz winning the White House? 

The Democrats are the party of choice. If her position further erodes, Hillary will get jettisoned at the Democrat convention (Obama can pull the plug on her anytime he wants--telling her she is out but he will give her a pardon) giving a Biden-Warren ticket the opportunity to step in and save the day (Plan B). That can't happen too soon or it benefits Bernie (who is definitely not Plan B for the Democrat hierarchy). A Biden Warren ticket would be electable, would actually be allies in the White House the Obamas would prefer, and would appease Sanders supporters (and probably Sanders himself). 

Instapundit: Bill slams Obama's awful legacy, Hillary's NSA Problem, Choose your destructor, Good work Mr. President, Mr. Brooks is confused, It is not only the FBI Hillary has to worry about, the NSA is not happy with Hillary, Hillary doing well with African American women (must be her Raisin in the Sun accent), Sanders playing ball with Hillary (so far)
Wombat: DaTechGuy: Trump's rise is proving Ted Cruz right (and no I do not blame Ted Cruz or Rush Limbaugh for Donald Trump's rise, that's myopic--the root of this goes way deeper and ultimately to a combination of erosion of societal morals and the betrayal of conservative principles by the GOPe).

While the Obama Administration dithers, ISIS makes gains against Kurds in Northern Iraq

Too little too late…

The Kurds, who have been longtime American allies, recently asked for military assistance from the United States to fight ISIS. American officials, determined to keep Iraq together as one country, are reluctant to supply weapons to the Kurds without the approval of the central government in Baghdad. That is unlikely to happen given the worries by Iraq’s Shiite-dominated leadership that the weapons would further embolden the Kurds to form a new state.
Instead, American officials are hoping to see Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki, a Shiite who is struggling to secure a third term, replaced by someone who could persuade Iraq’s Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds to form a national unity government. According to Iraq’s constitutional timeline, Iraq’s Shiite parties must choose a nominee for prime minister by Friday. The prime minister would then have 30 days to form a new government.

The way the U.S. treats its allies, you would have to be nuts to be a U.S. ally.
ISIS continues its march (and the US stands by and lets them do it)
ISIS advances, Kurds run out of ammo
Could ISIS blow the dam they just captured?  

I know Hillary Clinton has to distance herself from Barack Obama, but this is ridiculous!

It is said that the only way for Hillary Clinton to win is to distance herself from Barack Obama…

Glenn Reynolds linked this story about the bitter feud between the Clintons and the Obamas:

On most evenings, Michelle Obama and her trusted adviser, Valerie Jarrett, met in a quiet corner of the White House residence. They’d usually open a bottle of Chardonnay, catch up on news about Sasha and Malia, and gossip about people who gave them heartburn. 

Their favorite bête noire was Hillary Clinton, whom they nicknamed “Hildebeest,” after the menacing and shaggy-maned gnu that roams the Serengeti.

I suspect it is not going to be that hard for the Clintons to distance themselves from the Obamas.  

Valerie Jarrett accused Joe Biden of "downright disloyalty" when he jumped the gun over supporting gay marriage?

So why doesn't Valerie Jarrett get forced out of her job?

Speculation that Biden’s comments on “Meet the Press” in May 2012 were meant as a trial balloon, Becker writes, came from people “not privy to the chaos that erupted inside the West Wing after an emailed transcript of the interview landed in the inbox of the White House press team.” A furious Valerie Jarrett, Becker adds, accused Biden of “downright disloyalty.”

Jofi Joseph @natsecwonk: "I'm a fan of Obama, but his continuing reliance and dependence upon a vacuous cipher like Valerie Jarrett concerns me."

Update:
Jofi Joseph @natsecwonk accused White House official of illegally leaking classified information about Iran.

Joseph, who was outed in a report Tuesday in The Daily Beast, criticized and insulted dozens of Obama administration officials, lawmakers, Capitol Hill staffers, and journalists during his two-year stint on social media. But his number-one target was Deputy National Security Advisor for Communications Ben Rhodes, a senior official close to President Obama. Rhodes worked for the same department as Joseph, albeit at a much higher level.
In the summer of 2012, Joseph issued multiple tweets under his @natsecwonk account suggesting that Rhodes was the source of classified information leaked to the press about the Stuxnet virus, a joint U.S.-Israeli cyber warfare effort to sabotage Iran’s nuclear centrifuge program. Joseph, as an official in the non-proliferation bureau of the State Department and later inside the White House, was part of the administration’s team working on the Iranian nuclear issue.

Valerie Jarret, how much influence does she have?

The question that is hard to get inside of, the black box, is whether she is really influencing him or merely executing decisions he’s made. That’s like asking,

I immediately thought of Schrödinger's cat!  And no, that does not make me feel any better!  

Some had said this connection between Valerie Jarrett and Barack Obama no different than the relationship between Karl Rove and George W.
