Bill Clinton Has Military Veteran Thrown Out Over Hillary's Lies About Benghazi - VIDEO

 The long hours and grueling pace of the presidential campaign may be finally catching up with a rapidly aging Bill Clinton.

During an appearance in Bluffton, South Carolina on Friday, a former Marine interrupted Clinton’s speech and asked him to address what Hillary was going to do about the VA.

“What do you think should be done with the VA?” Clinton said in a raspy voice, turning the question back on him and yielding the floor.

“The thing is, we had four lives in Benghazi killed and your wife tried to cover it up,” the Marine responded, eliciting boos and jeers from the crowd.

As the man continued to talk, audience members yelled at him to sit down. “Are you going to let me answer?” Clinton asked. “This is America. I get to answer,” he said. “You listen to me. I heard you,” Clinton snapped as the man turned around and began addressing the crowd.

Laid Off Disney Worker Breaks Down in Tears Before Senate Panel

A Disney IT worker who was laid off and replaced by foreign workers along with hundreds of his colleagues broke down in tears before a Senate panel Thursday while telling his story.

“During the holiday season of 2014, I was sent a meeting invitation by a prominent Disney executive. With an excellent review in hand along with company announcements of record profits my mind buzzed with thoughts of a promotion or a bonus,” Leo Perrero, the former Disney worker testified before the Senate Subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest. “I walked into a small conference room with about two dozen highly respected fellow IT workers. The Disney executive made a harsh announcement to us all.”

That harsh announcement, Perrero said, was that Disney was laying him and hundreds of others off. He would be without a job in 90 days.

“Your jobs have been given over to a foreign workforce,” Perrero recalled the executive saying. “In the meantime you will be training your replacements until your jobs are 100 percent transferred over to them and if you don’t cooperate you will....

Atlanta Businessman Requires All Employees to Get Concealed Carry Permits, Then Gives Them Guns

Atlanta business owner Lance Toland requires all of his employees to get concealed carry permits and then gives them guns once they have the permits in hand.

Toland’s business is in the aviation insurance field. He said he made the decision to require concealed permits in light of a recent increase in “home invasions and violent crime in the Atlanta metro area.”

According to The Palm Beach Post, Toland grew concerned “for his employees’ safety,” most of whom are women scattered throughout three different office locations.

Toland said, “They all had their conceal carry permit within three to four weeks of me announcing that this was something you had to do.” Once they received their permit Toland gave each a Taurus Judge handgun to keep on their person or at the desk at which they sit. Taurus Judge handguns are revolvers that shoot .45 caliber bullets or...

20 Years Ago Today, Cuba Shot Down Two American Civilian Aircraft In International Waters...

The 20th anniversary of the shoot down of the Brothers to the Rescue aircraft will be remembered Wednesday in solemn ceremonies across South Florida.

On February 24, 1996, three American citizens - Armando Alejandre, Jr., Carlos Costa, and Mario de la Peña—as well as one American resident, Pablo Morales - were on a humanitarian mission over international waters when their plane was shot down upon an order from the Cuban government.

The planes of the humanitarians were taken down by a Cuban MiG-29 in international airspace.

Several lawmakers have released statements on the 20th anniversary and have tied it in with the current thawing of relations between the U.S. and Cuba.

In a statement, U.S. Senator and presidential candidate Marco Rubio called the shoot down a "gross violation of U.S. law for which justice has not been served." Rubio added that the incident "stresses the long history of brutality by the Castro regime."

U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen referenced President Obama's upcoming trip to Cuba, which she called "misguided" in a statement.

"The Obama administration continues to provide the Castro regime – the same people who murdered the Brothers to the Rescue heroes – concession after concession without even a semblance of contrition or accountability by the murderers of these brave men.," she wrote, adding "The memories of the courageous Brothers to the Rescue heroes will endure as a testament to those who were willing to sacrifice everything for the cause of a free Cuba.”

A remembrance ceremony will take place at...

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!? Asylum Seeker Raped Young Migrant Shelter Employee AFTER He Received Anti-Rape Training

HE RECEIVED ANTI-RAPE TRAINING. SHE MUST BE LYING.


A 16 year old Afghan male claiming asylum in Belgium has been stripped of his asylum seeker status by the government after he raped an employee at a Red Cross shelter in Menen, West Flanders.

Although the identity or age of the victim has not been revealed by Belgian police, she has been described as “young service staff” of a catering firm contracted to provide food to the migrants at the Menen Red Cross shelter. Flemish Television (VTM) reports the rape took place in the cellar of the centre for young migrants on Wednesday 10th of Feburary, where the woman had gone to fetch supplies.

The girl has filed a complaint for prior verbal assault, and for rape. Because the migrant man is only 16 years old, he will be tried in a Belgian juvenile court, where if found guilty he would receive a significantly shorter sentence and be imprisoned in more comfortable conditions.

A short spell in prison is not the only consequence for the perpetrator if found guilty, though, as the Belgian Secretary of State for Asylum and Migration has made a robust response to....

Effort to Open Voting to Illegal Immigrants Underway in NYC

Immigration activists are pushing for illegal immigrants to be granted the right to vote in New York City and say legislation to that effect could be introduced later this year.

The New York Post reports that a proposal to extend voting rights to illegal immigrants, allowing them to vote in elections for city-wide offices, was highlighted at a Black and Latino Legislative Caucus event.

“We want to expand the right to vote for everybody, not suppress the vote. What a radical idea,” Bertha Lewis, head of the Black Institute, said according to the Post. The Post notes she said they expect such legislation to be introduced in the spring.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has made extensive efforts on behalf of illegal immigrants, including offering a city identification card. According to the Post, Lewis said she sees the extension of voting rights as part of that effort.

“People want to come out of the shadows,” Lewis said, according to the paper.

As the Post notes, a number of years ago there was an effort to extend voting rights to legal non-citizen residents. The bill, which as introduced by Queens Councilman Dan Dromm and...

Senate Republicans Plan to Follow Joe Biden’s Advice on the Supreme Court Vacancy

Months before the 1992 presidential election, Joe Biden urged fellow U.S. senators to shut down the nomination process and block President George H.W. Bush’s judicial picks from a confirmation vote.



Today, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, called on the Senate to follow what he dubbed “the Biden Rules.”

The lawmakers should leave Antonin Scalia’s seat on the Supreme Court empty until a new president nominates a successor, Grassley said.

“It’s the principle, not the person,” Grassley argued, quoting at length from remarks made 24 years ago by Biden when the vice president was a senator from Delaware.

Grassley said the Judiciary Committee should listen to Biden’s reminder “of the Senate’s constitutional authority to provide, or withhold, consent, as the circumstances require.”

In a floor speech June 25, 1992, Sen. Joe Biden, then chairman of the Judiciary Committee, argued that....
