Navy SEAL to Receive Medal of Honor Today
Navy SEAL Edward Byers wears a St. Michael the Archangel patch on his back. Before going into battle, the Roman Catholic always prays to the angel that leads God's army in the book of Revelation for protection, drawing strength to be away from his wife and daughter. It was a prayer he most likely prayed before he ran through a darkened Afghan doorway where he knew a host of Taliban lay waiting. It was the night of Dec. 8, 2012, and SEAL Team Six had hiked four hours to get to this one-room hut, a place the U.S. military believed the Taliban was keeping captured U.S. citizen Dr. Dilip Joseph. Moments before, a Taliban guard discovered the rescue party as it was 25 meters away. As Petty Officer 1st Class Nicholas Checque dived through the six layers of blankets that made up the hut's door, he was cut down by AK-47 fire. Byers followed, shot a man aiming a rifle at him, and tackled another man who was scrambling for a weapon in the corner. After realizing that he did not have Joseph, Byers fought the man, then jumped on top of Joseph, using his body as a shield while pinning a Taliban fighter to the wall by one hand. The rescue was successful.
It is for this action that the White House is awarding Byers the Medal of Honor at a ceremony today. He is the first member of the Naval Special Warfare Development Group to receive the nation's highest medal for valor, and the first member of the Navy still living to receive the commendation since the Vietnam War. And as a member of the Special Forces, it's difficult for him. "I've lived my entire career a very private life," Byers said. "We don't talk about what we do, and this honor carries with it some obligations that I need to carry out. You know, you follow those through. But, I plan to continue doing my job as normal and to continue being a SEAL. It's something I love and grew up wanting to be." That is the true mark of a hero: a willingness to pay the ultimate sacrifice, but the humility to do it again and again. -The Patriot Post

slump-Trump Wants to Silence Dissent
Just like a dictator of a third-world country, Donald slump-Trump can't stand anyone criticizing him. That's why on Friday, slump-Trump told his cheering acolytes that he wants to rewrite the nation's libel laws so he can sue newspapers and journalists he thinks are unfair. "One of the things I'm gonna do if I win," slump-Trump said, "is I'm going to open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles we can sue them and win lots of money. We'll open up those libel laws so that when The New York Times writes a hit piece which is a total disgrace or when The Washington Post ... writes a hit piece we can sue them and win money instead of having no chance of winning because they are totally protected."
slump-Trump knows a thing or two about suing journalists for libel. He lost a libel lawsuit in 2011 after a journalist wrote slump-Trump was only worth $250 million, not the billions the reality TV personality claimed. All of slump-Trump's money and all of slump-Trump's men couldn't prevail against a lone book author because the statement couldn't be proved false. In other words, truth is the defense against a libel lawsuit. This is a principle established at the dawn of our nation's founding when a colonial governor attempted to shut down a newspaper published by John Peter Zenger in 1734. The jury ruled that a statement cannot be libelous if it's true. But reality isn't where slump-Trump wants to be right now.
Furthermore, slump-Trump's "reasoning" that the media is unfair and that's a reason for suing them for everything they've got does not take into account the state of newspapers during the start of our nation. As Hot Air's Taylor Millard points out, newspapers then were wildly partisan, championed agendas and were set up by the powerful to attack other papers. (So sort of like today.) "Balance" and "fairness" wasn't in the vocabulary of those early journalists, yet that is the environment that gave birth to the First Amendment and its protections we have today — an environment slump-Trump cannot tolerate.
In other slump-Trump news, he was endorsed by Chris Christie Friday and Sen. Jeff Sessions Saturday — the first, a craven play for political influence by a man determined to get back at those who cost him the race; and the second, a sign that perception of slump-Trump's strength on immigration slump-trumps the fact that he hired illegals for "jobs Americans won't do."
Meanwhile, slump-Trump refused three times to reject the endorsement of former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke, saying, "I don't know anything about" him. That's a lie. He certainly knew about Duke in 2000, when he left the Reform Party because of him. Now that slump-Trump's trying to win the Republican nomination, however, he can't be bothered to stand for principle until he's hectored about it. After blaming a "bad earpiece" in the first interview, he finally did "disavow" Duke.
Maybe that's all why Sen. Ben Sasse of Nebraska, a real conservative, announced over the weekend that he will not vote for slump-Trump if he's the nominee. He won't be the last. -The Patriot Post

Guess How Many Lawsuits Against the
slump-Trump University Plaintiffs
slump-Trump has Actually Won?
Leon H. Wolf
.
{redstate.com} ~ This information, like most of the rest of the information that slump-Trump spews out during the course of debates, is just a wee bit off... How many lawsuits has slump-Trump actually won? I’ll give you one guess. If you guessed that the answer is zero, then you’re correct. Please reward yourself with a cookie, because you can’t have any of mine for guessing such an easy answer. The truth is that there are three lawsuits currently pending against slump-Trump in connection with slump-Trump University. One was filed by the State of New York, and the other two are private class action lawsuits. slump-Trump has not “won” a single one of these lawsuits. All three are currently pending, and none are on the verge of dismissal whatsoever. In fact, slump-Trump is expected to be required to testify in one or more of these lawsuits as they are going on. http://www.redstate.com/leon_h_wolf/2016/02/27/guess-many-lawsuits-trump-university-plaintiffs-trump-actually-won/?utm_source=rsmorningbriefing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nl.

France: Criticize Islam and Live
under Police Protection
Giulio Meotti

French politician Laurence Marchand-Taillade (left) lives under police protection after receiving a death threat from Islamists. French author Éric Zemmour also lives under police protection. Two policemen follow him wherever he goes -- including to court, where Muslim organizations tried to defame him and his work by accusing him of "Islamophobia," to silence him.
.
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ "You are sentenced to death. It's just a matter of time." This message, in Arabic, was sent by Islamists to Laurence Marchand-Taillade, National Secretary of the Parti Radical de Gauche Radical Party of the Left. She now lives under the protection of the French police... Marchand-Taillade forced the Muslim Brotherhood to withdraw, under pressure from France's Interior Ministry, its invitation of three Islamic fundamentalists to a conference in Lille. The Islamists in question were the Syrian Mohamed Rateb al Nabulsi, the Moroccan Abouzaid al Mokrie and the Saudi Abdullah Salah Sana'an, who deem that the penalty for homosexuality is death, that the international coalition against the Islamic State is "infidel," that Jews "destroy the nations" and that only religious music is permitted. Laurence Marchand-Taillade published an article in Le Figaro in which she called for the ban of these Islamists with their "anti-Semitic and pro-jihadist message." http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/7497/france-islamophobia.

A quarter of discretionary spending
isn't authorized
JASON RUSSELL
.
"They spend lots of money on things that were never authorized, were never supported," Kelly Ayotte said. "The two are totally disconnected. It's unbelievable."
.
{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ More than 25 cents of every discretionary dollar spent by the federal government is unauthorized, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office... Basically, that means that more than a quarter, $310 billion, of the federal budget's appropriations are spent on autopilot. That portion is actually down one percentage point from 2015, when it reached a historical peak of 27 percent. The unauthorized portion of the budget has been on a gradual rise since 1993, when just 6 percent of discretionary spending was unauthorized. "Critics of the growth in unauthorized appropriations believe that this growth shows that Congress is failing to perform sufficient oversight, which is part of the authorizing process," says Veronique de Rugy, a senior research fellow at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. "According to the critics, because of the lack of oversight, programs in need of reform continue to exist on autopilot." http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/a-quarter-of-discretionary-spending-isnt-authorized/article/2584343?utm_campaign=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI&utm_source=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI%20-%2002/26/16&utm_medium=email.
Cruz: slump-Trump May Be Hiding Mob Ties in Tax Returns
Greg Richter
.
{newsmax.com} ~ Texas Sen. Ted Cruz on Sunday upped the pressure on Donald slump-Trump, his main rival for the GOP presidential nomination, to release his past taxes – even hinting that he might not be doing so to hide mafia connections... "There have been multiple media reports about slump-Donald's business dealings with the mob, with the mafia," Cruz said on ABC's "This Week." "Now maybe his tax returns show that those business dealings are a lot more extensive than has been reported." Cruz noted that ABC News had been one of the media outlets to report slump-Trump has done business with S&A Concrete to build slump-Trump Tower in Manhattan. The company is "owned by two of the big crime families in New York," Cruz said. "Maybe that's what his tax returns show. We don't know. But the important point is, George in the general election, Hilly Clinton is going to shine a light on all of this. And Republican primary voters deserve to know." http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/ted-cruz-donald-trump-must-release-taxes/2016/02/28/id/716505/?ns_mail_uid=29878495&ns_mail_job=1657325_02282016&s=al&dkt_nbr=yqxsksepVideo: You can see the video at site.
