5.13 - Q: Stay The Course

For someone as young as he is, he presents a great argument for gathering information but using our own discernment as to our own gut instinct. Much respect to Jordan's open mind. 

How does it feel when we read, listen or watch something? Sometimes best to file something as a crumb of information and see if or how it plays out in the future. 

Slight language warning.

Trump is more popular than Dems want to admit

Hillary, Nancy and Tom Perez should stump for all Dem candidates this year.  Stooges

Trump is more popular than Dems want to admit

" ....... So you are not going to win back the House by making it all about him.

Rather than stoking the base by attacking Trump, Democrats need to come up with a platform that addresses the average voters’ hopes and concerns. Not just the needs of underdogs or whatever cause happens to be the media flavor of the week.

Democrats need to look like the adults, not like another pack of screaming kids on the playground.

And they need to start now. ....."

Justice leaders wary to try ISIS fighters in US, as prosecutors push for case

Britain should take care of the mess that was their citizens, not us. I feel this is not our responsibility.  Since this hinges on an obama proclamation I feel that should be wiped clean.

Justice leaders wary to try ISIS fighters in US, as prosecutors push for case

"WASHINGTON - Justice Department leaders are reluctant to recommend U.S.-based criminal trials for two Islamic State militants captured and detained in Syria, according to American officials who said that, even though federal prosecutors believe they can win in court, it is unclear whether there is sufficient evidence to secure convictions and lengthy prison terms.

At the same time, senior Trump administration officials are adamant that Britain bears responsibility to prosecute the men, Alexanda Kotey, 34, and El Shafee Elsheikh, 29, whose British citizenships were revoked over their alleged affiliation with an ISIS cell suspected of murdering Westerners.

Further complicating matters, Attorney General Jeff Sessions would prefer that Kotey and Elsheikh be sent to the U.S. military detention facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, though he has recognized the success of federal terrorism prosecutions.

State Department officials are wary of undermining the U.S. government's position that terrorist fighters captured overseas should be returned to their countries of origin. ...."

"A presidential directive signed by President Barack Obama in 2015 states that the prosecution of hostage-takers is an important deterrent. The U.S. government, it said, shall seek to ensure they are prosecuted through "a due process criminal justice system" in the United States or abroad."
