Someday we'll look on abortion with horror like we do slavery today. Democrats are on the side of evil again. This doesn't mean Republicans or Federalists are or were angels, but the Democratic party has ALWAYS been a force for evil. Did you know President Buchanan (D) conspired to assist the Confederacy secede while he was still President? He had most of the Navy sent first to Argentina, then to Africa. Most of the Army was sent to Utah and barracked there. All to help the Confederacy get off to a good start.

Let a Thousand Treasons Bloom: Our Nation's Attorney General Refuses to Say If The Law Means What It Says When It Says That Giving Secret Information to a Non-Cleared Person is Illegal To save Hillary Clinton, they had to put flamethrowers to the whole village. Sometimes it takes a village to free a felon. John Sexton digests the incredible exchange from the House panel's quizzing of Lynch earlier today: Chaffetz: Does an individual need a security clearance to review or have access to classified material? Lynch: Well, congressman, that issue would be dependent upon the agency for whom they worked and the nature of the work that they did with respect to… Chaffetz: Can you give me an example where you don’t need a security clearance to view classified material? Lynch: No, I believe as I was going to say, they would, but the type of clearance varies with every agency and the agency would make that decision and determination. Chaffetz: Is it legal or illegal to share classified information with somebody who doesn’t have a security clearance? Lynch: Congressman, it depends on the facts of every situation. You’d have to determine how that sharing occurred. You’d have to determine the means. You’d have to determine the reason, the intent, um, certainly depending on how you view the statute it could go any number of ways. Chaffetz: So you think there is a scenario in which you could share classified information with somebody who doesn’t have the requisite security clearance? Lynch: No, I would not draw that conclusion. I would say that I’m not able to answer it as a hypothetical but there are a number of factors that would go into the decision and one could have any number of results. "This exchange continued for several more minutes," Sexton adds dryly. At every turn, Lynch reverted to her scripted, mob-lawyer-vetted non-answer and refused to say if it is still a crime to disclose secret information to a person unauthorized to receive it. I can understand her confusion -- the law is very vague. Secret documents are routinely stamped, "It is a felony imprisonable by up to ten years to disclose this information to any unauthorized person." aceofspades

postregister.com Transgender woman arrested for voyeurism at Target Posted: July 12, 2016 8:59 p.m. POST REGISTER A transgender Idaho Falls woman was arrested Tuesday on one count of felony voyeurism for a report that she took pictures of another woman changing clothes in a dressing room at Target in Ammon. Shauna Patricia Smith, 43, is in custody in the Bonneville County Jail under the name Sean Smith, according to the jail’s active inmate roster. A Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office news release said the suspect also is known as Sean P. Smith. Sheriff’s deputies responded Monday to the store after a woman reported that someone was taking pictures of her while she was inside a dressing room trying on clothes, the release said. The victim noticed the subject reaching over the wall with a cellphone taking pictures. The victim confronted the suspect who then fled the store on foot, the release said. Sheriff’s Office Spokesman Sgt. Bryan Lovell said he didn’t know whether the reported victim was wearing underwear when she was photographed. Detectives reviewed witness information and security footage from Target that led them to come in contact with Smith, the release said. After interviewing Smith she was taken into custody by detectives and booked into the jail. Detectives are investigating to determine if any more victims exist relating to this incident, the release said. The charge is punishable by up to five years in prison. Target made headlines in April when it released a public statement saying “supports the federal Equality Act, which provides protections to LGBT individuals, and opposes action that enables discrimination.” Its statement went on to say “we welcome transgender team members and guests to use the restroom or fitting room facility that corresponds with their gender identity.” The announcement drew protests throughout the country and the American Family Association, a conservative Christian activist group, started a petition drive to get those who disagreed with the store’s policy to pledge to boycott the store. The Association reported in May that it had delivered petitions with more than a million signatures in support of the boycott.
