Good evening, I’m still reporting on the Shepard Smith. Thanks to Joe Farah of WND, we have this little jem about Shepherd Smith – the uber liberal plant deep in the Fox News scene, now essentially stumping for Hillary Clinton on air. On Friday, Nov. 17, 2000, during the “Hanging Chad” election recount in Florida, Smith was arrested and charged with a felony for allegedly driving his car into another reporter who was standing in a parking space she was attempting to save for a friend. According to WND’s coverage of July 9, 2001: “The victim, freelance journalist Maureen Walsh of Tallahassee, was hospitalized and released later the same day with bruises on her knees and legs.” Walsh was saving the place right across from the state capitol when Smith drove up and: “… shouted some profanities at her and basically just struck her, striking her at the knees, which threw her up on the car,” according to a report in the St. Petersburg Times. Smith was arrested and changed with aggravated battery with a motor vehicle. He posted $10,000 bail and returned to work. Months later, the case was eventually ended when all charges were dropped and only WND had kept track of it. Smith did not receive any punishment from Fox News either. I’m still reporting from Washington. Good day.
There is a new reason why Hillary Clinton may not be indicted by the Justice Department; President Obama would have to testify before a Grand Jury and possibly at a trial.
Judge Jeanine Piro laid it out on Hannity last night:

And there you have it. Do you think President Obama –struggling to salvage any sort of positive legacy for his 2-term presidency –would put himself into a court procedure where he would be in legal ¬¬¬jeopardy for perjury?
On top of that, when would this all happen? It would play out sometime after the Democratic Convention and the election – would be the best-case scenario for Obama. But what if it was delayed until after Trump became president? Then there would be no pardon for Clinton or Obama.
That’s just a complete non-starter, no-win situation for Obama.
But opening this up in a court proceeding opens to scrutiny even more serious problems:
[insert Trojans introduced to Govt systems]
Good Lord! The State Dept’s own System Admins had to turn off security for the Govt computer system!!!
What this means to me is that Hillary was communicating back to the State Dept using her illegal server – which had been hacked repeatedly – and so what happened? It introduced Trojans from her system into State’s system. What a nightmare!

Good morning, I’m still reporting on Artificial Intelligence System Predicts Trump Win
An AI system (artificial intelligence) developed in Mumbai, India, which has correctly predicted the last 3 US presidential elections, says that Donald Trump will become the next President.
Called MogIA, the system was developed in 2004 by Sanjiv Rai, the founder of the Indian start-up Genic.ai.
The system takes 20 million data points from public platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Google, and analyzes their public posts to make its predictions media engagements during the 2008 election, by 25%. According to Sanjiv Rai:
“If Trump loses, it will defy the data trend for the first time in the last 12 years since internet engagement began in full earnest.”

About the time 4th of July fireworks are coming to an end on the East Coast of the US, the giant Juno spacecraft will wake up after a 5-year journey to Jupiter and begin a 35-minute engine burn that slow down the fastest object ever launched from earth so it can be captured around this solar system’s largest planet, Jupiter.
Scientists hope that at 23:06, Juno will phone home that the engine burn is complete and the proper speed has been achieved.
That message will take 48 minutes to travel the 5.7 million miles to reach NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.
Juno will then orbit Jupiter for about 20 months, circling in 37 highly-elliptical orbits bringing the spacecraft as close as within 3100 miles and as distant as 2,000,000 miles from the planet’s surface. Each orbit will bring it closer and closer until on orbit #37, Juno will burn up in the dense atmosphere.
Juno was launched nearly 5 years ago. The 4-ton spacecraft was launched in an awkward-looking configuration atop an Atlas V rocket with 5 extra solid rocket boosters strapped to the outsides to give it sufficient thrust for the 5-year voyage to Jupiter.
What are scientists interested in discovering on Jupiter? How far down does the Giant Red Spot extend?
O What causes it to be there, swirling with wind speeds of between 430 and 680 miles per hour – 3 to 4 times greater than the strongest earthbound tornadoes.
Another unusual feature of Jupiter - which is 3 times larger than the next-largest planet, Saturn – is the powerful magnetic field – so powerful that it creates gigantic glowing auroras around its poles.
Could it be that the giant planet – nearly large enough to have developed into another sun – creates pressures so great deep inside its interior that the liquid hydrogen which comprises 75% of its mass, is compressed so tightly that it becomes metallic – something that has never been observed on earth, but is known as “the holy grail of high-pressure physics.”
Metallic hydrogen would probably be a superconductor and could be responsible for the immense magnetic and radiation field that surrounds the planet. Other theories hypothesize that at these pressures, entirely new states of matter called superconducting superfluids and metallic superfluids may exist.
No matter the cause, the Juno spacecraft will carefully try to avoid the most powerful areas in Jupiter’s radiation field lest its instrument be fried before it can begin transmitting scientific data in October.
To try to preserve those instruments for as long as possible, many are secured inside a radiation vault made of 2-inch-thick titanium walls and about 36 inches on a side.
Juno is expected to experience radiation levels equivalent to 100 million dental x-rays.
The possibilities for scientific breakthroughs abounds in this, the most dangerous - and next-to-last of NASA’s interplanetary missions.
The last NASA interplanetary mission will come to an end next year when the Cassini spacecraft, first launched in 1997, will return to Saturn and eventually crash into it in what scientists call the Grand Finale.

Good morning, I’m still reporting on Secret Service Cracks Down on Trump Threats.
Oh my goodness, what a difference one week makes. As the United States begins to turn back to a nation of laws from the lawlessness of 8 years of the Obama Administration, the U.S. Secret Service is beginning to go after those who threaten President-Elect Trump.
Matt Harrigan, the founder and CEO of a San Diego cyber-security firm called Packetsled, has resigned after a drunken election-night Facebook rant threatening to kill President-elect Donald Trump.
The profanity-laced rant quickly made it into the Twitter-os-phere and went viral around the world.
Although efforts were made to erase the evidence, The Daily Mail in Britain actually found low-rez images of the rampage and posted them.
[insert]
“I’m going to kill the president. Elect.”
“Bring it secret service.”
“… getting a sniper rifle and perching myself where it counts. Find a bedroom in the whitehouse that suits you mother xxxxx I’ll find you.”
Well, the U.S. Secret Service did bring it. They showed up at Harrigan’s Del Mar, California home for a little 2-hour discussion.
Making such threats against the President or his successor can result in felony charges under US law.
Even if Mr. Harrigan does escape prosecution, his career has been ruined by the incident.
Packetsled – the company he founded, initially put Harrigan on administrative leave last weekend, but on Tuesday of this week – one week after the election, the company accepted Harrigan’s resignation.
According to the company:
“The PacketSled Board of Directors accepted the resignation of President and CEO Matthew Harrigan, effective immediately.”
“We want to be very clear, PacketSled does not condone the comments made by Mr. Harrigan, which do not reflect the views or opinions of the company, its employees, investors or partners.”
Here’s the point: Over the past year, those of us who have followed Trump closely have been astonished by the proliferation of similar outrageous threats across the internet – so many that we chose to ignore the because reporting on them would only encourage them, especially when there seemed never to be a consequence from the Obama-compliant version of the Secret Service.
Now, however, there is a new sheriff in town and his sworn deputies will now follow the law, not the dictates of a president who has acted more like an emperor than an elected executive.
Remember, the President of the United States heads up the Executive branch of our government. Isn’t it nice to have an actual executive in that position to drain the swamp?

One of the cornerstones of the Ted Cruz campaign is personal privacy – however his new “Cruz Crew” mobile app is being seen by privacy advocates as a Stazi-esque spy campaign to fuel the Cruz databanks with every bit of your personal information and list of contacts it can fool you into giving up.
According to a disturbing article in nothing less than the Associated Press, the Cruz campaign is setting new precedents for the use of datamining and spyware.
“The Cruz app prompts supporters to register using their Facebook logins, giving the campaign access to personal information such as name, age range, gender, location and photograph, plus lists of friends and relatives.”
But it gets worse; the Cruz app goes after all your cell phone contacts as well. According to the Associated Press story:
“The Cruz app separately urges users to let it download their phone contacts, giving the campaign a trove of phone numbers and personal email addresses.”
But there is more. Though most people don’t realize it, the Cruz App also tracks you as you go about your daily business.
“Cruz’s app also transmits to the campaign each user’s physical location whenever the app is active, unless a user declines to allow it.
“The campaign said it does this ‘so that we can connect you to other Cruz Crew users based on your particular geographic location.’”
In other words if you have a friend who is a Cruz supporter, your basic name, address and phone number are likely now in the big Cruz database.
So that is why you are now receiving unsolicited – or unwanted – mailings and phone calls from privacy-lover Ted Cruz.

Have you ever heard a Governor say “any candidate but this one?”
Well, Iowa’s Governor, Terry Branstad, says he will not endorse a candidate in the Feb. 1 Iowa Caucuses, but this morning said for the very first time that he wants Ted Cruz defeated.
Branstad is not only the longest-serving governor in Iowa history but in U.S. history. He is currently serving his 6th term in office.
At a meeting this morning of the Iowa Renewable Fuels Summit in Altoona, Iowa, when he was asked by a Channel 13 – WHO TV reporter if he wants Texas Senator Ted Cruz defeated.
“Yes”, said Branstad.
[insert]
Branstad’s son, Eric has led a bipartisan group of renewable fuels supporters who have confronted Cruz at events across the state. They believe that Cruz’s opposition to renewables, along with his financial backing from oil interests in his home state of Texas puts him at odds with Iowan’s interests.

Hillary Clinton says she will consider offering President Obama a slot on the Supreme Court.
The revelation came at an Iowa town hall meeting yesterday. An anonymous questioner in the audience said that Obama would be a great pick:
“I mean, he's brilliant, he can set forth an argument and he was a law professor, so he’s got lots of credentials.”
The truth is that in the unlikely event Obama was nominated, he would – in fact – be one of the least qualified Supreme Court nominations in this nation’s history. He never really taught constitutional law. He taught THE most far-left mish-mash courses imaginable – and darned few of those - but that’s another story.
Clinton said she would take the suggestion under advisement, but did mention one little impediment standing in the way to Obama’s road to a seat on this nation’s highest court:
“We do have to get a Democratic Senate to get him confirmed.”
My best guess is that President Obama and his Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, have done sufficient damage to this country so that their political party will not be returning to power in his lifetime.

Donald Trump crushed his opponents in the Nevada Caucuses by the largest margin yet - yesterday.
Last year, the total number of votes in the Nevada Caucuses was 33,000. This year, Donald Trump, alone, got 34,531 votes or 45.9% of the vote against the remaining 5 candidates.
Rubio got 23.9%, Cruz 21.4%, Carson 4.8%, and Kasich 3.6%.
Trump got 12 delegates to the Republican National convention. Rubio and Cruz received 5 each.
This morning, Trump received his first two Congressional endorsements; Rep. Duncan Hunter, a Republican from California, and Rep. Chris Collins, a Republican from New York.
Hunter told Politico:
"We don't need a policy wonk as president. We need a leader as president."
Hunter also said:
“I think you have more Trump supporters in Congress. They just have to come out of the closet."
That just goes to show you how messed up the current situation is that even U.S. Congressmen are scared to admit that they support Donald Trump because they might be branded as racists or fascists.
New Yorker, Rep. Chris Collins’ endorsement starts to validate Trump’s recent assertions that he is the only Republican that can win New York in the general election – a feat unmatched for many decades.
Overnight, the coverage of Trump on the American news channels has changed dramatically. No longer is there talk of whether Trump can win – it’s now all about is there anyway he can be stopped.
So here is my predictions for the week ahead. CBS is said to be about to pull out the last thing in the anti-Trump arsenal – that Trump used Mafia contractors to build his buildings. Yawn. It’s New York. There are almost no alternatives is some segments of the construction industry.
Look for CBS to run with this hit piece on their flagship newsmagazine “60 Minutes “on Sunday in a last-ditch, desperate attempt to stop what will be a Trump runaway in Tuesday’s SEC primary states. Trump will only have one full day to respond – next Monday. Can he do it? Will Trump supporters care?
The only way Rubio and Cruz have stayed this close to Trump is that in Nevada, Rubio spent 14 times as much as Trump and Cruz spent 4 times as much – just for the privilege of only getting half as many votes!
But Rubio and Cruz cannot possibly keep up that kind of extravagant spending for next Tuesday’s elections because 14 states will all elect on the same day, March 1st. …….. Advantage Trump.
Trump is weakest in Texas, but even there the Trump steamroller effect may Trump all. My prediction is that a week from today it will be obvious to all that Donald Trump will be the Republican nominee after either a narrow win or a close second to Cruz in his home state of Texas. Because 2 weeks later, Trump will surely steamroll Rubio in his home state of Florida and Kasich in his home state of Ohio. Game over.

Carly Fiorina is quickly turning out to be the Republican party’s Obama – that is she is not really what she appears to be on the Republican campaign trail.
On FOXNews Fiorina chastised Hillary Clinton for wiping her secret server clean two years after leaving the State Department. However, according to former HP employee Charles Nielsen, prior to ousting Walter Hewlett and the HP board of directors, Fiorina directly ordered Nielsen to destroy all five hard drives which resided in her secret email server to cover up her takeover plans which netted her millions of dollars and ended up gutting HP.
According to a story in today’s CapitolHillOutsider.com, by Kelleigh Nelson, who personally interviewed Mr. Nielsen:
“My name is Charles Nielsen, and I was an employee with HP from 1/2000 until 8/2001. I worked in the Boise, Idaho Data Center. I was the sole Customer Engineer allowed to work on Carly’s Private Server. “
“It was kept under lock and key, and I was the only engineer allowed to work on it under the direct supervision of the Data Center Manager….”
“In March of 2001, just before Carly Fiorina had taken control of HP from Walter Hewlett, I was asked to remove the 5 hard drives from her personal server and physically destroy them with a hammer.”
“I asked why I would destroy hard drives that at the time were worth over $15k apiece and I was told because she said so.”
“Shortly after destroying all evidence of her conspiracy to take over the company, she removed Walter Hewlett from the board of directors and made off with approximately $500 million dollars from the company with the rest of the board of directors ($100 million for Carly personally).”
“All of her emails and all working documents were destroyed.”
“I have kept my silence until now, when I find it highly offensive that after laying off close to 33k workers … she is pretending she would never behave like Hillary has. Carly Fiorina is as corrupt as they come.”
