WHY IS COMEY ONLY NOW BEING ASKED ABOUT CLINTON’S OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE? The former FBI director was asked this morning by a Washington, D.C. all-new radio host if the former Secretary of State’s destruction of emails from her private server and her cell phones and servers by aides amounts to obstruction of justice. LifeZette’s Kathryn Blackhurst wonders why today is the first time anybody in the mainstream media has asked that extremely relevant question.

MILLION$ GIVEN TO BUSH-CLINTON KATRINA RELIEF FUND NOW UNACCOUNTED-FOR: You’ve heard the one about the guy who turned everything he touched into gold? With the Clintons, everything turns to gold … for them.

Charles Ortel, who looks increasingly like the corporate watchdog Ralph Nader should have been, pored over the Clinton Foundation’s public filings once again and what he found illustrates how doing good can so easily hide opportunities to do very well for oneself. Next Question: Didn’t the Bush presidents know with whom they were dealing?

REMEMBER WHEN THE INTERNET GAVE EVERYBODY A VOICE? NOT NOW: An exhaustive analysis by the Media Research Center produces devastating evidence that Silicon Valley giants Facebook, Twitter and Google are actively trying to strangle conservative voices.

How important is this to the future of the Republic? Brent Bozell, MRC’s founder and long-time chief, explains: “When the only ideas permitted are from one side, any prospect of intellectual discourse dies. If these platforms merely serve as an echo chamber of liberal talking points, everyone loses. Our country is divided and limiting free speech only makes matters worse.”

Like it says in Orwell’s classic, some animals are more equal than others. LifeZette’s Brendan Kirby has more.

WHAT RESPONSIBILITY DO HONDURANS HAVE FOR THEIR OWN PLIGHT? Now that is an uncomfortable question posed by the former chief of the national security division within the Fraud Detection and National Security Directorate at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. In other words, it’s not a question posed by some guy in his pajamas sitting in his living room (10 bonus points if you know the origin of that image!) blogging.

SIENNA COLLEGE CONSERVATIVES MEETING TODAY DESPITE THREATS: The Turning Points USA and Students for Liberty chapters at the Upstate New York campus are hosting a Let Freedom Ring conference today despite receiving multiple threats in recent weeks. Those threats — some subtle and others not subtle at all — came not just from Antifa-wannabes but also from a professor and an administrator. LifeZette’s Michelle Blood has details. The speakers lineup includes Roger Stone and James O’Keefe.

GUESS WHICH BOOK HAS CHANGED MORE GOVERNMENTS THAN ANY OTHER: Dr. Sean McDowell explains that and a dozen or so other factors that make this one unique beyond all others. And, no, it’s not Das Kapital.

WAIT, YOU MEAN OBAMA’S DACA ENCOURAGES ID THEFT BY ILLEGAL ALIENS? Yes, that’s exactly what Dale Wilcox of the Immigration Reform Law Institute contends and he’s got the data to prove it. As Glenn famously says, read the whole thing.

HOW DO YOU BORROW $28.5 MILLION, THEN MAKE IT DISAPPEAR? Just ask Bill and Hill and Chel at the foundation bearing their last name. Charles Ortel has uncovered yet another aspect of the sprawling charitable fraud that is the Clinton Foundation.

WHY THE RIGHT SHOULD THINK TWICE ABOUT BACKING FACEBOOK REGULATION: Can you spell “regulatory capture?” LifeZette’s Brendan Kirby has more.

MEADOWS THREATENS “CONSEQUENCES WELL BEYOND CONTEMPT OF CONGRESS:” House Freedom Caucus Chairman Rep. Mark Meadows has had it up to here with excuses from the Department of Justice and the FBI for not producing for the House Judiciary Committee the estimated 1.2 million documents the panel has been seeking for nearly a year on Hillary Clinton’s private server and alleged contacts between President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russian interests.

As I explained Friday, the way to spell “way beyond contempt” is J-A-I-L. The last time Congress did it was 1935. Given the recent conduct of Eric Holder, Lois Lerner, Rod Rosenstein and Christopher Wray, one might easily conclude it’s been too long since that last time.

TRUMP SHOULD GET TOUGH ON ILLEGALS LIKE … BILL CLINTON WAS? Yes, it’s instructive to compare how our present chief executive is being excoriated daily for measures to stem the tide of illegal immigration to the U.S. with what the Man From Hope did on the same issue. LifeZette’s Brendan Kirby did just that and what he discovered is quite illuminating for those with open eyes and minds.

MESSER BILL TO REQUIRE CENSUS OF CITIZENS, LEGAL RESIDENTS ONLY: What a novel idea – the constitutionally mandated decennial census of the population of the United States should include only actual citizens and legal residents, for purposes of formulas allocating federal funding! LifeZette’s Brendan Kirby has the exclusive this morning.

CECILE RICHARDS’ ABORTION EUPHEMISM – “AFFORDABLE, NONJUDGMENTAL HEALTH CARE:” That one appears among the five most outrageous quotes compiled by LifeZette from the former Planned Parenthood chief’s new book about her panic in waking up the morning after the 2016 election to discover Hillary Clinton was not president-elect.

BEFORE ZUCK’S FACEBOOK, THERE WAS ZUCK’S FACESMASH: Bet you also didn’t know the Mark Zuckerberg Worldwide Apology Tour started in Bahstan in 2003, not Menlo Park in Silicon Valley in 2018. And did you know Facebook’s El Jefe is a huge fan of Big Government? No? Well then, you probably should read this ASAP.

DON’T BE FOOLED BY ZUCKERBERG’S SPIN: Facebook is staying in the personal data sale biz. That’s as in yours and mine, according to Michael Daugherty, writing this morning in LifeZette.

WELCOME TO JAIL, MR. ROSENSTEIN AND MR. WRAY: Here are five things Congress can do to stop the Department of Justice/FBI coverup on the Trump-Russia investigation. Bet you didn’t know Congress has the authority to jail people who thumb their noses at congressional subpoenas.

WHY DID THE CLINTON FOUNDATION SEND $37M TO A BALTIMORE P.O. BOX? That’s an especially relevant question when the $37 million was intended as a grant to the Clinton-Bush Haiti Fund (CBHF) to help victims of the 2010 earthquake. But CBHF had only one address, in Washington, D.C., so, Charles Ortel asks in LifeZette, why send the money to a Baltimore address, and a P.O. Box to boot? And while we’re on the subject, who picked it up in Baltimore and what did they do with it?

CLINTON FOUNDATION BROKE VIP NEW HAMPSHIRE CHARITY REGULATION: If your name is Gordon MacDonald and you are the Attorney General of New Hampshire, you really need to read this ASAP … OK, now what are you going to do about it?

NO WHITE HOUSE FOR YOU, MARK ZUCKERBERG: Brian Bosche explains why the evidence has been there all along.

THIS NEW JERSEY COUNTY WON’T BECOME A SANCTUARY PLACE: At least not if Sheriff Fred W. Brown of Hunterdon County has any say in it. He told LifeZette’s Michelle Blood Hunterdon “is not going to be a sanctuary county as long as I’m sheriff.” He’s one of the 400 sheriffs from across the country who signed a letter last week telling Congress to get with it and support tougher immigration enforcement. The ranks of such folks in law enforcement are growing steadily as the consequences of sanctuary dysfunction spread.

HOW MANY CONTAINERIZED RUSSIAN WMDS SIT IN U.S. PORTS RIGHT NOW? No, that’s not simply a click-bait question. Mary Fanning and Alan Jones connect dots on Uranium One deal, Clinton Foundation influence-peddling, Russian intelligence and a certain powerful Iraqi family. You really need to read what they found, which just went live on LifeZette.

ANOTHER PRO-SANCTUARY CITY CLAIM BITES THE DUST: Ask a defender of sanctuary cities to defend the policy and their first argument invariably is immigrants fearing deportation won’t help local crime fighters who cooperate with the feds. We hear it so often, it’s become a truism, part of the governing assumptions underlying of the debate about illegal immigration.

But guess what? There’s as much credible, concrete evidence for this sanctuary claim as there is for the proposition that Nancy Pelosi’s secret pleasure is watching Beta tapes (remember those?) of old Ronald Reagan speeches. LifeZette ace Brendan Kirby has the details on a new report out today from the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

This group is an advocate of tough immigration enforcement, to be sure, but, as FAIR’s Matthew O’Brien told Kirby, “Illegal immigrants aren’t afraid of ICE. I mean, come on, we have DACA kids chaining themselves to the Capitol, refusing to leave.”

RIP PATRICK J. KORTEN: Joe Morris offers a wonderful tribute in LifeZette.

MEET THE CLINTON CHARITY THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT: When Bill and Hillary and Chelsea have nightmares, you can bet Charles Ortel is right in the middle of them. And with a multitude of good reasons why.

CLOSED MINDS IN MASSACHUSETTS HELP PROP UP PUTIN’S PLUTOCRACY: Environmentalists in Massachusetts and New York are determined to keep abundant U.S. energy resources “in the ground.” So what happens when the Northeast gets repeated bouts of unusually cold weather, as has been the case in 2018? Natural gas from Russia is unloaded in Bay State ports. There’s a protectionist union factor here, too. LifeZette’s Brendan Kirby has all the details.
