Chance of Obama even wanting to do something about it: just about zero. He doesn't even WANT to catch the bastards who murdered our ambassador and three others and carried out the other attacks.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Martin Dempsey in testimony on Oct. 10 said the Pentagon’s hands are tied because the groups involved are not covered by the Authorization for Use of Military Force. The AUMF law allows U.S. attacks anywhere in the world only on al Qaeda and “associated forces.
“The individuals related in the Benghazi attack, those that we believe were either participants or leadership of it, are not ‘authorized use of military force,’ ” Gen. Dempsey told the House Armed Services Committee in his classified testimony during a closed hearing.
Guess the party!
State Representative Carlos Henriquez was sentenced to serve six months in Middlesex County House of Correction today after he was convicted of charges that he choked and punched an Arlington woman he was dating in July 2012.
A Cambridge District Court jury convicted
Henriquez on two assault and battery charges, but acquitted Henriquez, a
Dorchester Democrat, of a third assault and battery charge, one count
of intimidation of a witness, and one count of larceny under $250.
Rachel Maddow is a bigot and a liar. But that's not really news, is it?
Ah, communism, there's always idiots who'll think you're just wonderful.
Another illegal mayor goes to jail. For a offense involving a gun.
Ah yes, wonderful low-crime gun-free Britain. At least if you believe their cooked numbers.
The gold-standard "national statistics" status has been withdrawn from police recorded crime figures following repeated allegations that some of the quarterly published figures have been subject to "a degree of fiddling".
The UK Statistics Authority said it had taken the decision as a result of "accumulating evidence" that the underlying data on crimes recorded by the police may be unreliable.
It follows high-profile concerns over the integrity of the police crime figures raised by the Commons home affairs and public administration select committees. Her Majesty's chief inspector of constabulary, Tom Winsor, who is to report later this year on the issue, has said he expects to find "a degree of fiddling, some of it owing to dishonesty" among the 43 police forces in England and Wales. Winsor, however, has ruled out "institutional corruption" behind the inaccurate recording of crime by the police.
Oh, no, couldn't POSSIBLY be institutional...
The allegations have included claims that the Metropolitan police have understated sexual offences by as much as 25%. MPs have heard allegations that fiddling techniques have included downgrading offences to less serious crimes or persuading victims not to make a complaint, while in some cases crimes were only recorded if they were solved. Other incidents were kept completely off the books if an offender could not be traced, they have been told.
No, nothing institutional about that, noooo....
