Rush Expected Back, Hannity Expected to Leave Cumulus.



POLITICO is reporting that Cumulus now looks set to drop its affiliation with Hannity entirely while re-upping its deal with Limbaugh, according to sources familiar with the contract negotiations.

POLITICO learned of the plans on Thursday night when Cumulus-syndicated radio host Michael Savage told his listeners that he anticipated taking over Hannity's time slot later this year on Cumulus stations.

“I predict, right here, right now, that I Michael Savage and the Savage Nation is going to take over The Sean Hannity Show time slot by the end of the year,” Savage announced. “I am the heir apparent to afternoon drive on the east coast and around America on Cumulus stations, which have the most powerful stations in the radio world.”

Sources familiar with the negotiations confirmed that Cumulus and Hannity were expected to end their affiliation.

Neither Hannity nor Limbaugh's spokesperson responded to a request for comment late Thursday night.


As with past reports, a Cumulus spokesperson said the broadcaster was "not in a position to comment about negotiations with talent under contract."


A Clear Channel spokesperson similarly told POLITICO, "We cannot comment as we are still in negotiations."


 In late July, Cumulus was set to drop both hosts; two days later both negotiations were back on the table.

Limbaugh and Hannity are the number-one and number-two ranked talk radio hosts in the country, respectively. To date, Cumulus carries each Limbaugh and Hannity's shows on more than 40 stations around the country.

Was Obama Playing Cards During Bin Laden Raid?



The Daily Caller is reporting that former Obama aide Reggie Love said at an event in Los Angeles sponsored by The Artists & Athletes Alliance in July that he, Pete Souza and the White House photographer, Marvin Nicholson, played cards during the Bin Laden raid.

“Most people were like down in the Situation Room and [the president] was like, ‘I’m not going to be down there, I can’t watch this entire thing.’ So he, myself, Pete Souza, the White House photographer, Marvin [Nicholson], we must have played 15 games of spades,” said former Obama aide Reggie Love.
 

After the May 1, 2011 raid, the White House released a photo of the president looking serious in the Situation Room surrounded by his national security team as the raid was ongoing. But was that photo photo shopped? I'm not expert by any means, however the photo looks a bit odd, Obama is very small compared to others in the room and appears to be a bit more distant in the photograph.

Another explanation for the picture of Obama in the Situation Room is that he posed for a photo op and then left or that he watched the raid and Love is full of bull.

The Truth About Hannity’s Loss of 9 PM Slot On Fox News?

Fox News' Megyn Kelly photo



The truth about Sean Hannity’s loss of his nightly slot on Fox News has finally come out according to ajc.com Political Insider with Jim Galloway.

As part of a national journalism conference on Tuesday, August 20, America's Survival, Inc. (ASI), a public policy organization, is officially releasing a new report on radical changes at Fox News that should cause great concern to pro-family conservatives.
 
"Pushing Sean Hannity out of the 9:00 p.m. slot, to make way for pro-homosexual advocate Megyn Kelly, is another sign of the channel's left-ward drift and decline," said ASI President Cliff Kincaid, a veteran journalist and media critic.

20,000 Missiles Were Reported Stolen In Libya in 2011



According to the Daily Caller on September 27 of 2011 a survey of weapon depots in Libya discovered that up to 20,000 shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles were reportedly missing, partly because President Obama had refused to send troops to guard the weapons depots.

“We were quite disappointed after talking to administration officials … that nothing more was done, even about the [storage] facilities in Tripoli, which are unsecured now,” said Peter Bouckaert, director of emergencies at left-of-center group Human Rights Watch.


“The major impediment [to action] is that the administration doesn’t want boots on the ground," he said. 

 
“If these weapons get into the wrong hands, any civilian aircraft operating in the region will be threatened,” said Bouckaert.


 The missing missiles are Russian-made SA-7s and SA-16s: Shoulder-launched missiles that can home into the hot exhaust trails from civilian and military jets. The SA-16 is only five feet long and weighs just 24 pounds.

“The problem is that the missiles are already out of the storage facilities and in the hand of unknown people,” Bouckaert said. “Libya has thousands of miles of unsecured desert borders to Chad, Mali and Algeria,” where an al-Qaida subgroup now operates, he said.
 

 Where have we heard this story before? Our government did not want to properly secure the diplomatic mission in Benghazi and we were actually paying an Al Qaeda linked group to defend it for us. Yes, we were paying the February 17th Martyr’s Brigade to defend our diplomatic mission. This group proudly flew an Al Qaeda flag on its Facebook page. They also conveniently disbanded hours after the Benghazi attack.

The Benghazi Missle Crisis


Add about 9600 MORE to this number courtesy of Barack Obama that he sent to our enemies.


The UK Daily Mail reported on the claim by Joe diGenova, an attorney for Benghazi whistleblowers that four hundred American-made surface-to-air (SAM) missiles were stolen from Libya during the attack ended up in the hands of al-Qaeda. 

According to diGenova, the loss of those missiles is also one the reason the U.S. State Department shut down 19 embassies across the Middle East last week.

‘A lot of people have come forward to share information with us,’ he said during the radio station’s ‘Mornings On The Mall’ program Monday morning.

‘We have learned that one of the reasons the administration is so deeply concerned’ is that ‘there were 400 surface-to-air missiles stolen, and that they are … in the hands of many people, and that the biggest fear in the U.S. intelligence community is that one of these missiles will be used to shoot down an airliner. 400 missiles, surface-to-air missiles, taken from Libya.’

Asked if the missiles are now ‘in the hands of al-Qaeda operatives,’ DiGenova replied, ‘That is what these people are telling us.’

DiGenova said his sources are ‘former intelligence officials who stay in constant contact with people in the Special Ops and intelligence community.’

‘And it’s pretty clear that the biggest concern right now are 400 missiles which have been diverted in Libya and have gotten in the hands of some very ugly people.’

diGenova said that while he was uncertain whether the stolen weapons were being kept at the U.S. Consulate’s CIA annex, ‘it is clear that the annex was somehow involved in the process of the distribution of those missiles.’
diGenova said: "They are worried, specifically according to these sources, about an attempt to shoot down an airliner."

‘They were afraid that there was going to be a missile attack on one of the embassies. Remember, you can take a shoulder-held missile and shoot it into an embassy. Not just into the sky.’

‘That’s what this was all about,’ he insisted. ‘That’s why they’re so worried. That’s why they have lied repeatedly about what happened in Benghazi, because they are now responsible for all of the stepchildren of violence that happens as a result of this. This is a very serious matter.’

 CNS News adds diGenova’s assertion that “we had troops ready to deploy in Croatia to go that night of September 11, 2012 to rescue Americans.”

It is a sad state of affairs when we have to get the truth from a foreign media source but that's just how it goes these days, the main stream news media has turned into a government controlled entity.

19 Disturbing Facts on Illegal Immigration



The following are 19 disturbing facts about illegal immigration:

#1 57 percent of all households that are led by an immigrant (legal or illegal) are enrolled in at least one welfare program.

#2 According to one study, the cost to U.S. taxpayers of legalizing current illegal immigrants would be approximately 6.3 trillion dollars over the next 50 years.

#3 The Obama administration has distributed flyers that tell illegal immigrants that their immigration status will not be checked when they apply for food stamps.

#4 The Department of Homeland Security says that it has lost track of a million people that have entered this country but that appear never to have left.

#5 One out of every five children living in Los Angeles County has a parent that is in the country illegally.

#6 In one recent year, taxpayers in Los Angeles County spent 600 million dollars on welfare for children of illegal immigrants.

#7 Thanks to illegal immigration, California’s overstretched health care system is on the verge of collapse.  Dozens of California hospitals and emergency rooms have shut down over the past decade because they could not afford to stay open after being endlessly swamped by illegal immigrants who were simply not able to pay for the services that they were receiving.  As a result, the remainder of the health care system in the state of California is now beyond overloaded.  This had led to brutally long waits, diverted ambulances and even unnecessary patient deaths.  At this point, the state of California now ranks dead last out of all 50 states in the number of emergency rooms per million people.

#8 It has been estimated that U.S. taxpayers spend $12,000,000,000 a year on primary and secondary school education for the children of illegal immigrants.

#9 It is estimated that illegal aliens make up approximately 30 percent of the population in federal, state and local prisons and that the total cost of incarcerating them is more than $1.6 billion annually.
#10 The federal government actually has a website that teaches immigrants how to sign up for welfare programs once they arrive in the United States.

#11 The Obama administration recently introduced the very first “unmanned” border station along the Texas-Mexico border.

#12 The Obama administration has sued individual states such as Arizona that have tried to crack down on illegal immigration.

#13 According to the FBI, there are approximately 1.4 million gang members living in our cities.  Illegal immigration has been one of the primary factors that has fueled the growth of these gangs.

#14 As I have written about previously, there are only about 200 police officers assigned to Chicago’s Gang Enforcement Unit to handle the estimated 100,000 gang members living in the city.

#15 Mexican drug cartels make approximately 6.6 billion dollars a year “exporting” illegal drugs to the United States.

#16 It is an open secret that Mexican drug cartels are openly conducting military operations inside the United States.  The handful of border patrol agents that we have guarding the border are massively outgunned and outmanned.

#17 According to the Justice Department’s National Drug Intelligence Center, Mexican drug cartels were actively operating in 50 different U.S. cities in 2006.  By 2010, that number had skyrocketed to 1,286.

#18 Overall, more than 55,000 people have been killed in drug-related violence in Mexico since 2006.  That same level of violence will eventually show up in major U.S. cities unless something dramatic is done about illegal immigration.

#19 It is being projected that the Senate immigration bill will bring 33 million more people to the United States over the next decade.

400 U.S. Missiles Stolen in Benghazi ?


According to Joe DiGenova, Benghazi whistleblower attorney, 400 U.S. missiles were "diverted to Libya" and ended up being stolen and falling into "the hands of some very ugly people."

DiGenova, representing Benghazi whistleblower Mark Thompson, told WMAL that he "does not know whether the missiles were at the annex, but it is clear the annex was somehow involved in the distribution of those missiles."

The information allegedly "comes from a former intelligence official who stayed in constant contact with people in the special ops and intelligence community. They are worried, specifically according to these sources, about an attempt to shoot down an airliner."

According to The Telegraph (August 4) 35 CIA operatives were working in Benghazi when the attack against the consulate took place. These operatives were allegedly in an "annex near the consulate working on a project to supply missiles from Libyan armories to Syrian Rebels."

Months ago, Senator Rand Paul suggested that one of the causes behind the Benghazi attack may be because there was a gun running operation distributing arms to Syrian rebels.
