Comment: His words say it all.
Corporate profits have fallen for two quarters in a row, our exports fell by 7.6 percent during the first quarter of 2015, and U.S. GDP contracted by 0.7 percent during Q1. Even though Barack Obama and the mainstream media are willingly ignoring them, the truth is that these numbers are absolutely screaming that we are going into a new recession.

According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, court documents filed against 31-year-old Daniel Allen Jack of Amplify Church alleged that the youth pastor first met the victim in December 2014 when she joined the church youth group.
By January, Jack was using text messages to gain the trust of the girl, the complaint alleged. And he created fake identities on Google and gave her a second cell phone so the two could talk privately.
Comment: The above behavior by Jack can be easily identified as "grooming", something sexual predators routinely engage in with underage victims.
Before Easter, Jack was said to have taken to girl to his parents' home, where he suggested that the two should have sex. But when he started kissing and touching her, she cried and refused to cooperate, the complaint said.
When she refused to have sex with Jack again, he allegedly held her on the floor and forcibly raped her.

Run by a corpulent Ghanian woman, it is one of dozens of unlicensed establishments which have sprouted up across Israel's commercial capital offering an "affordable" child-minding service to thousands of illegal African immigrants who have to go to work.
Characterized by filth and squalor, they have been uniformly denounced by both rights groups and the media as "baby warehouses".
So far this year, five babies -- all only several months old -- have died in these so-called daycare centers.
Comment: So sad to see young children suffering at the hands of this woman who sees child care as only a business. It seems right now there's not too many affordable choices for African immigrants who need to work.

The original lawsuit was filed by veteran RCMP officer Janet Merlo. Her case has been stuck in various courts for three years.
"My name is on there, but there's 400 ladies standing behind ... from nine provinces and all the territories," Merlo told CBC News. "It speaks to a problem that's systemic and that's nationwide."
David Klein, the lawyer representing the 363 women, said that the Mounties' work environment is toxic for women.
"Day after day, week after week, year after year, they were subjected to degradation, humiliation, and demoralizing comments and behavior. Comments and behavior that were not adequately addressed by management," Klein told journalists outside the British Columbia Supreme Court on Monday.

You may have - along with a birthday card. Back in February, he became a national sensation when a social media campaign asked for cards and stickers to fulfill his one birthday wish for his 9th year of living. His autism was highlighted heavily on the news and his spirit captured hearts everywhere. Thousands and thousands of people responded to the request - so much so, that the parents had to rent a storage locker.
Even the President and his family sent Bubby a birthday card!
So of course, he would be removed from his home in May after the media attention died down. The attention he received is what got attention from CPS workers....

A married mother of two, Curry is the former kitchen manager at Dakota Valley Elementary School in Aurora. She lost her job on Friday after giving school lunches to students who didn't have any money.
"I had a first grader in front of me, crying, because she doesn't have enough money for lunch. Yes, I gave her lunch," Curry said.
In the district, students who fail to qualify for the free lunch or reduced lunch program receive one slice of cheese on a hamburger bun, and a small milk.
Curry says that meal is not sufficient. Many times she paid for lunches out of her own pocket.
"I'll own that I broke the law. The law needs to change," she said.
Comment: One wonders how the individuals on the Cherry Creek School District council would feel if it was their children who she had given free meals to.

One. It is not just about crime. Our jails and prisons have grown from holding about 500,000 people in 1980 to 2.2 million today. The fact is that crime rates have risen and fallen independently of our growing incarceration rates.
Two. Police discriminate. The first step in putting people in jail starts with interactions between police and people. From the very beginning Black and poor people are targeted by the police. Police departments have engaged in campaigns of stopping and frisking people who are walking, mostly poor people and people of color, without cause for decades. Recently New York City lost a federal civil rights challenge to their police stop and frisk practices by the Center for Constitutional Rights during which police stopped over 500,000 people annually without any indication that the people stopped had been involved in any crime at all. About 80 percent of those stops were of Black and Latinos who compromise 25 and 28 percent of NYC's total population. Chicago police do the same thing stopping even more people also in a racially discriminatory way with 72 percent of the stops of Black people even though the city is 32 percent Black.
Comment: "It is said that no one truly knows a nation until one has been inside its jails. A nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but its lowest ones." -- Nelson Mandela

Superintendent Jay Foster asked audience members to hold their cheers and applause until all the graduates' names were called, but one family said they were unable to contain their excitement, reported WREG-TV.
Ursula Miller said she called out the first name of her niece, Lanarcia Walker, as she crossed the stage to receive her diploma from Senatobia High School.
The teen's father, Henry Walker, shouted, "You did it, baby," and waved a towel, drawing laughs from the crowd.
Comment: There is more than enough evidence that the economy is in dire straights, but the PTB are unlikely to give the masses any warning as they are too busy preparing for the aftermath.
