Schlichter Warns "Watch The Liberals - All They Have Left Is Lies"

"Watch the liberals. Listen to what they say, because their lies and their slanders are a road map to their plans for the future. Straightforward from here, given the chance, they absolutely intend to impose the kind of quasi-fascist rule they falsely accuse Trump of contemplating. But their problem is that we now recognize their lies, and we see their endgame, and the collapse of the media gatekeepers means they can no longer keep us blind and isolated. "

CNN Airs 'Spy Cam' Footage Of Trump Oval Office Meeting As If It's Perfectly Acceptable

Over the weekend, CNN aired 'spy cam' footage of a "fiery" meeting in the Oval Office in an attempt to further their 'dysfunction in the Trump White House' narrative.  But, while CNN was all to eager to spread their narrative, no one seemed to care to ask the obvious question of why it is suddenly ok to film private, and potentially classified, meetings in the Oval Office.

Of Course Big Brother Was Spying On Trump’s Calls – The Shocking Truth Is That They Spy On All Of Our Calls

by Michael Snyder, End Of The American Dream:
The mainstream media is all in an uproar over Donald Trump’s claim that Barack Obama personally ordered the phones in Trump Tower to be “wiretapped” just before the election. But nobody should really be surprised that the government was listening to Donald Trump’s phone calls. After all, the truth is that they systematically collect the content of all forms of digital communication, and this has been going on for many years. During Obama’s presidency, nobody really got too upset when it was revealed that the Obama administration was spying on friendly foreign leaders (including Angela Merkel), nobody got too upset when it was revealed that the Obama administration was spying on journalists, and nobody got too upset when it was revealed that the NSA was grabbing baby photos and nude selfies off of the Internet. But now that Trump has gotten extremely angry because the government was listening to his calls, maybe something will finally be done about all of this unconstitutional surveillance.

Big Brother Wants To Eliminate ‘Fake News’ And IBM Has The Perfect Solution. Think ‘Minority Report’

IBM Patent: A.I. Fact-Checker with In-Call Actionability
by K. Renee, Northwest Liberty News:

File Date (@US Patent Office): January 19, 2017 Patent: 20170019535 Family ID: 57775256 Kind Code: A1 Applicant: International Business Machines (IBM)
Super Easy Explanation: A system that fact-checks live calls and takes action to “cause change” in any call that is “determined…as false”. [Abstract]
Now, to Break It Down a Bit Further:

Who’s Involved (initially) : telecommunicating from & an automatic program, ran on an artificial-intelligencia computing system.  What’s Happening :  The A.I. system “detects a fact statement made during a conversation” [0024]. It detects “alleged facts” by using NLP (Natural Language Processing) to identify a “defined grammatical construct” and “the presence of one or more keywords”. [0025]  “As some non-limiting examples” the system “can be configured to detect statements that include financial terminology…words referring to a location, an institution, an entity, and the like”.

Worried You Might Buy Bitcoin or Gold

by Keith Weiner, Sprott Money:
The price of gold has been rising, but perhaps not enough to suit the hot money. Meanwhile, the price of bitcoin has shot up even faster. From $412, one year ago, to $1290 on Friday, it has gained over 200% (and, unlike gold, we can say that bitcoin went up—it’s a speculative asset that goes up and down with no particular limit). Compared to the price action in bitcoin, gold seems boring. While this is a virtue for gold to be used as money (and a vice for bitcoin), it does tend to attract those who just want to get into the hottest casino du jour.
Perhaps predictably, we saw an ad from a gold bullion dealer. This well-known dealer is comparing gold to bitcoin, and urging customers to stick with gold because of gold’s potential for price appreciation. We would not recommend this argument. Whatever the merits of gold may be, going up faster than bitcoin is not among them.

‘Genocide’ In Yemen As Saudi Arabia, U.S. Grab 63% Of Oil Supply

by Baxter Dmitry, Your News Wire:
Saudi Arabia and the United States are carrying out a “genocide” while the world turns a blind eye, unaware that Yemen is being invaded for its vast oil reserves.
Observers have been puzzled why oil-rich Saudi Arabia, backed by their allies the United States, have set their sights on impoverished Yemen – however all is not as it seems in the region.
Saudi Arabian oil is drying up, and scientific research by international drilling companies show that Yemen’s unexploited oil reserves are greater than the combined reserves of all the oil-rich Gulf states.

Stellar Performance by Marine Le Pen on 60 Minutes

by Mish Shedlock, Mish Talk:
Marine le Pen put in a stellar performance on 60 Minutes on Sunday.
Le pen came across as very presidential. The interview, in French but translated, is sure to boost her standing in the French presidential election on May 7.
CBS has a transcript of the interview at Marine Le Pen Says She’s Not Waging a Religious War.
Anderson Cooper: The polls say you can’t win.
Marine Le Pen (translation): Yes. They also said that Brexit wasn’t going to happen, that Donald Trump wasn’t going to be elected, wasn’t even going to be his party’s nominee. Well, they’re saying that less and less now. They are much more cautious, much more cautious now.

France’s Death Spiral

by Guy Millière, Gatestone Institute:
In 1990, the “Gayssot law” was passed, stipulating that “any discrimination based on ethnicity, nation, race or religion is prohibited”. Since then, it has been used to criminalize any criticism of Arab and African delinquency, any question on immigration from the Muslim world, any negative analysis of Islam. Many writers have been fined and most “politically incorrect” books on those topics have disappeared from bookshops.
The French government asked the media to obey the “Gayssot law.” It also asked that history textbooks be rewritten to include chapters on the crimes committed by the West against Muslims, and on the “essential contribution” of Islam to humanity. All history textbooks are “Islamically correct.”
In hospitals, Muslims are increasingly asking to be treated only by Muslim doctors, and refusing to let their wives be treated by male doctors.

“In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.” Franklin D. Roosevelt
While everything in life is not a coincidence and random events unrelated to each other do occur, we try to notice when such patterns as mentioned by President Roosevelt do emerge, patterns such as we recently reported on ANP in the string of deaths of numerous Russian ambassadors within months of each other all across the planet.
