Overnight Open Thread (25 Jul 2015)

WTF? Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard is set to be paroled. Is this to placate Israel over the Iran deal? I don't like this message that we are sending with this. We are paying for Chelsea Manning to get hormone therapy and now we're paroling a traitor before the end of their sentence.

Sanctuary Cities For All

Ha! If only. Republicans to expand 'santuary city' idea for all.

"No longer should working Americans be at the mercy of legislation forced upon them by the Washington elites," said Grassley. "No longer should our fellow countrymen who disagree with unfair taxation, zoning regulations, indoctrination of their children, and especially with ObamaCare, be unable to set up sanctuaries where their families would be safe from government intrusion."

Police Raids

A little homework by the cops could've avoided this incident. In Iraq, I raided insurgents. In Virginia, the police raided me.

X-Wing

Pretty impressive video with only 2 weeks of work. It's just a demo but I would absolutely love a new X-Wing/T.I.E. game.

CA To Investigate CMP

California AG to review group behind Planned Parenthood videos. The whole review is focused on CMP and not what was actually discussed in the videos.

California Attorney General Kamala Harris announced Friday she plans to review two undercover videos released by anti-abortion activists aimed at discrediting Planned Parenthood’s procedures for providing fetal tissue to researchers to see if any law was broken in the filming.

Deadly Island

At least they don't have Raptors. The people that live on North Sentinel Island will kill anyone who tries to come ashore. Now that's some serious border control action there.

An indigenous tribe has lived on North Sentinel Island with extremely limited contact with outsiders. Anyone who has attempted to explore the island has been attacked or outright killed. North Sentinel is so dangerous for outsiders that India’s government has established a three-mile exclusion zone in an effort to prevent more violence.

Rules For Me, But Not For Thee

This pisses me off in regard to Hillary. It's painfully obvious she willfully mishandled classified material and it gets largely ignored so far. It's a joke that she is still running. Especially if you read this story. Sailor faces 30 years in prison for keeping pics of classified submarine equipment.

Iran

Talk about spiking the football. Iran is gonna do whatever it wants and it knows Obama won't do shit about it. He's their bitch. As is Kerry. Iran hits out at John Kerry's empty threats over the nuclear deal. Hell, Iran's Supreme Leader tweeted out a picture of Obama committing suicide.

PowerPoint

How PowerPoint kicked off a revolution in military affairs. Hard to give a brief anymore without PowerPoint.

Cat Video

Kitty drive thru.
