BZ’s Berserk Bobcat Saloon Radio Show, Tuesday, 5-8-18, with DAN BUTCHER

BZ and his new friend, courtesy of show listener and devotee Whiskey Dale. Thanks so kindly for raising and housebreaking the bobcat. Now if I could just figure out a name.

Featuring Right thinking from a left brain, doing the job the American Media Maggots won’t, embracing ubiquitous, sagacious perspicacity and broadcasting behind enemy lines in Occupied Fornicalia from the veritable Belly of the Beast, the Bill Mill in Sacramento, Fornicalia, I continue to proffer my thanks to the SHR Media Network for allowing me to utilize their studio and hijack their air twice weekly, Tuesdays and Thursdays, thanks to my shameless contract — as well as appear on the Sack Heads: Against Tyranny Show every Wednesday night.

This was a shockingly different show that apparently dropped many listeners and viewers. I started the show two hours earlier than normal and announced the situation on social media but, apparently, failed to do so in sufficient time to alert those who customarily attend. Bad on me.

I also discovered that moving the show to an earlier time slot thusly places me in the midst of afternoon drive-time Sacramento traffic at 5 PM, in order to get the show ready by its opening at 6 PM. O joyous dei. Not something I relish in a city that has no urban planning and, further, plans to build no more roads because, after all, that would encourage more people to drive cars! Perish the thought!

Tonight we spoke to DAN BUTCHER of HighPlainsPundit.com fame, and he and BZ kibitzed for the entire two hours about breaking news to include:

  • Mike Pompeo confirmed. Will we be able to confirm Gina Haspel as CIA Director?
  • BZ and Dan talked about the West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana primaries.
  • Don Blankenship lost, Morrissey won in WV.
  • Lt Col Oliver North is now President of the NRA, an excellent and timely move.
  • President Trump pulled out of the Iran deal and slapped additional sanctions.
  • John Kerry, in violation of the Logan Act, has been negotiating between himself and Iran in an attempt to derail Trump’s cessation of the Iran deal — not a treaty, but a deal.
  • And much more buttery political goodness!

For DISH subscribers: your Hopper has been wired to play YouTube videos. You can now toss ol’ BZ onto your massive flatscreen TV and watch him in all of his obese, biased and politically-execrable potty-mouthed goodness.

Obama screwed the DEA, favored Hezbollah, to keep Iran deal

Ah, I love it when the bodies of my enemy float serenely by on the river as I sit on its bank, have a leisurely lunch, and admire the view. Pass the potato water.

Schadenfreude.

All of the years of Obama’s nefarious, biased, corrupt, America-hating policies are and will be exposed, one amoral, venal and shocking incident at a time. It is the tip of the proverbial Obama Iceberg. There is oh-so-much-more-buttery Obama corruption yet to be revealed. Bank on it.

First, from Breitbart.com:

Report: Obama ‘Derailed’ DEA Probe into Hezbollah in Latin America to Save Iran Deal

by Edwin Mora

Former U.S. President Barack Obama’s administration “derailed” a DEA operation targeting Hezbollah’s multi-million-dollar drug trafficking activities in Latin America to secure approval of the controversial Iran nuclear deal, reports Politico.

Iran’s narco-terrorist proxy Hezbollah is involved in a plethora of criminal activities in Latin America, ranging from money laundering to massive drug trafficking.

Wait. What?

For years, the U.S. military has been sounding the alarm on the threat against the United States posed by the presence of Iran and Hezbollah in America’s backyard — Latin America.

What do Neil Cavuto and Peter Brooks have to say?

Let’s go to the direct source. From Politico.com:

The secret backstory of how Obama let Hezbollah off the hook

by Josh Meyer

An ambitious U.S. task force targeting Hezbollah’s billion-dollar criminal enterprise ran headlong into the White House’s desire for a nuclear deal with Iran.

In its determination to secure a nuclear deal with Iran, the Obama administration derailed an ambitious law enforcement campaign targeting drug trafficking by the Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah, even as it was funneling cocaine into the United States, according to a POLITICO investigation.

So, wait. Did Americans perchance expire but upon drug overdoses that Mr Obama could have stemmed had he been motivated to do so? Likely deaths and overdoses in the minority communities most seriously impacted by drugs?

The campaign, dubbed Project Cassandra, was launched in 2008 after the Drug Enforcement Administration amassed evidence that Hezbollah had transformed itself from a Middle East-focused military and political organization into an international crime syndicate that some investigators believed was collecting $1 billion a year from drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering and other criminal activities.

Hezbollah dealing drugs in Mexico and shipping said product into the US? And anyone would possibly want to stop our fight against this because.  .  . ?

Over the next eight years, agents working out of a top-secret DEA facility in Chantilly, Virginia, used wiretaps, undercover operations and informants to map Hezbollah’s illicit networks, with the help of 30 U.S. and foreign security agencies.

Sounds like a serious, detailed and extensive, expensive op to me.

They followed cocaine shipments, some from Latin America to West Africa and on to Europe and the Middle East, and others through Venezuela and Mexico to the United States. They tracked the river of dirty cash as it was laundered by, among other tactics, buying American used cars and shipping them to Africa. And with the help of some key cooperating witnesses, the agents traced the conspiracy, they believed, to the innermost circle of Hezbollah and its state sponsors in Iran.

Doing their job. Their DEA job. The job they trained for at Quantico, along with the FBI — the only two federal agencies that train at Quantico.

But as Project Cassandra reached higher into the hierarchy of the conspiracy, Obama administration officials threw an increasingly insurmountable series of roadblocks in its way, according to interviews with dozens of participants who in many cases spoke for the first time about events shrouded in secrecy, and a review of government documents and court records. When Project Cassandra leaders sought approval for some significant investigations, prosecutions, arrests and financial sanctions, officials at the Justice and Treasury departments delayed, hindered or rejected their requests.

Thank God. For a moment.there I was afraid real transparency and justice might have emerged during the Obama administration.

The Justice Department declined requests by Project Cassandra and other authorities to file criminal charges against major players such as Hezbollah’s high-profile envoy to Iran, a Lebanese bank that allegedly laundered billions in alleged drug profits, and a central player in a U.S.-based cell of the Iranian paramilitary Quds force. And the State Department rejected requests to lure high-value targets to countries where they could be arrested.

After all, national security clearly took a back seat to Obama’s “legacy” and how he was to be perceived by the public.

You doubt that? Read this:

“This was a policy decision, it was a systematic decision,” said David AsherDavid AsherVeteran U.S. illicit finance expert sent from Pentagon to Project Cassandra to attack the alleged Hezbollah criminal enterprise., who helped establish and oversee Project Cassandra as a Defense Department illicit finance analyst. “They serially ripped apart this entire effort that was very well supported and resourced, and it was done from the top down.”

Let’s be serious. Hezbollah isn’t really that dangerous anyway. Right?

A confidential DEA assessment from that period concluded that Hezbollah’s business affairs entity “has leveraged relationships with corrupt foreign government officials and transnational criminal actors … creating a network that can be utilized to move metric ton quantities of cocaine, launder drug proceeds on a global scale, and procure weapons and precursors for explosives.”

Some top U.S. military officials shared those concerns, including the four-star generals heading U.S. Special Operations and Southern commands, who warned Congress that Hezbollah’s criminal operations and growing beachhead in Latin America posed an urgent threat to U.S. security, according to transcripts of the hearings.

National security vs Obama’s agenda of “looking cool”? I know which of those wins, hands down. Check this out:

“The FBI and other parts of the USG [U.S. government] provide a little or no assistance during our investigations,” (DEA Agent John) Kelly wrote in an email. “The USG lack of action on this issue has allowed [Hezbollah] to become one of the biggest transnational organized crime groups in the world.”

Then:

As a result, “We were making concessions (to Iran) that had never been made before, which is outrageous to anyone in the agency,” the former intelligence officer said, adding that the orders from Washington especially infuriated CIA officers in the field who knew that Hezbollah “was still doing assassinations and other terrorist activities.”

As expected, the administration’s final report, which remains classified, significantly downplayed Hezbollah’s operational links to drug trafficking, which in turn further marginalized the DEA’s role in fighting it, according to a former Justice Department official and others familiar with the report.

Once the Obama administration left office, in January 2017, the logjam of task force cases appeared to break, and several task force members said it wasn’t a coincidence.

And that is how your loving Barack Hussein Obama ran the US government. It, as ever, was only about one thing: Obama himself.

Turf battles, especially the institutional conflict between law enforcement and intelligence agencies, contributed to the demise of Project Cassandra, Maltz said. But many Project Cassandra agents insist the main reason was a political choice to prioritize the Iranian nuclear agreement over efforts to crack down on Hezbollah.

There will be more revelations about what actually occurred during the Obama regime. This is just the tip of the Obama Iceberg.

Boehner supports Obama on Iran deal

Boehner Obama's BITCHTime and again I hear on the Michael Medved show that the Republicans have fought bravely on behalf of the American Taxpayer.  I enjoy listening to Mr Medved but with the caveat that he is clearly a GOPEE supporter.

The GOPEE is starting to wear on me as it is on those who support Donald Trump.

The backlash which has manifested itself in the success of Donald Trump?  I understand it.  I don’t think it’s fruitful or will hold water in the end when the chips are down, but I understand the source of the frustration and its resulting orange hair.

And it is because of things like this that Trump continues to resonate despite his pettiness, his childish behavior and lack of insightful substance.

Because of things like this from Breitbart.com:

Republicans Thwart Boehner Plan To Move Forward On Obama’s Nuclear Arms Deal With Iran

by Matthew Boyle

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A full-scale revolt against House Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) —including a looming resolution that could come up for a vote at any time that would remove him from the speakership—has thrown into disarray the House GOP leadership’s previously carefully laid plans to push President  Obama’s nuclear arms deal with Iran through Congress without a fight.

The Boehner GOPEE is at work once again, “going along to get along” with Obama..

I term it the GOPEE because Boehner represents the GOP Establishment Elite, the same people who, at the end of the day, meet their good Demorat friends at local watering holes for expensive name drinks, backslapping all around, laughing prevalent at having screwed the American Taxpayer over another day.

Amid a rebellion in the House GOP conference meeting on Wednesday morning, leadership canceled a previously scheduled rule vote that would have set up the House putting through a resolution of disapproval of the president’s Iran deal under the terms of legislation previously signed into law from Sens Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) and Ben Cardin (D-MD).

This all happened as a result of an argument furthered by Reps. Mike Pompeo (R-KS) and Pete Roskam (R-IL) that Congress shouldn’t even vote on the Corker-Cardin resolution, either approving or disapproving of the Iran deal, since the president has not yet complied with the law regarding the release of text of the deal including “side deals” cut with Tehran.

In other words, Obama and his sycophants are insisting that Congress vote for something the likes of which they haven’t even seen in totality.  There are a host of “side deals” as yet unrevealed even to Congress.

Sound familiar?

Besides being an idiotic idea — supporting something that so very few have apparently even read in totality much less the “side bets” —  the parts that are known make no sense for the security of the United States, for Israel, or the world. We are giving nuclear weapons to Iran with essentially no monitoring of their program whatsoever.

Khamenei Tweet About Israel 1The Iranians are laughing, sending out Tweets (Iran’s Khameini is on Twitter, for God’s sake) that Israel will be gone in 25 years.  They are singularly pleased that the United States and the West could be such abysmally stupid dupes.

Khamenei Tweet About USIran’s Ayatollah Khamenei takes pleasure in the fact that Iran will not negotiate any further with the US unless it is in their favor — as with the nuclear deal.  Trump is correct: this is roughly the worlds worst negotiation.

It is action like this, endorsed by Speaker Boehner, that makes people like me, actual Conservatives, upset.

In four words, we are fed up.

Boehner and Republicans like Boehner have got to go.

Hence: the popularity of Trump.

Right or wrong, the popularity of Trump.

The state of Barack

Obama Selfie With Stick, AlaskaSummed up in one all-inclusive NPD photograph, I submit.

Whilst three police officers in this nation have been murdered in one week (four in the last nine days), one of them abjectly assassinated solely for wearing a law enforcement uniform (the number of on-duty LEO killings has spiked, per the FBI), while the stock market is tanking, while Iran is about to make kippered herring of the US, while the national debt clock continues to expand exponentially, while #BlackLivesMatter is chanting “pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon,” while China builds an island in the middle of international Obama Selfie Bear Gryllswaters and claims it for its own, while China drives its blue water ships into the Bering Sea shadowing the Aleutian Islands — Mr Obama is up in Alaska, communing with the media and taking selfies with a stick and including Bear Grylls.

Obama Mount McKinleyIn anticipation of this apocalyptic event (the world is going to explode in a cacophony of hurtling waves, floods, famines, earthquakes and insurrection because of global warming, Mr Obama foresees) and for a nice setup, Obama changes the name of Mt McKinley to Mt Denali, in order to bring the focus right where it ought to rightly be: on Him.  Capital H.

Leftist ViewsYou must understand, it is all about Barack Hussein Obaka.  That other petty stuff can just take a back seat.

Because whilst we’re all focusing on him, he has appointed a dutiful little Muslim as special assistant in the Office of the Director for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in the Department of Homeland Security.  A perfect point from which to insert influence and discover the intricacies.

Yes indeed, Mr Obama has kept his promise to fundamentally change the landscape of America.  Its allies fear its inconsistency, timidity and squirrelly behavior, and its enemies enjoy those very same characteristics.  Its enemies have become emboldened because Obama operates from a paradigm of fundamentally failing to understand that other people, cultures and countries think, well, in a profoundly different fashion.

He believes, for example, that he can appeal to Islam with what he considers to be common sense and his Leftist perception of what constitutes logic.  I believe this would account for Obama’s insistence upon the finished nuclear deal with Iran — the fact that the completion of the deal would help to cement his “legacy” (urged by his NPD), continue to enable his worldview that the US needs to stand back in the world (because it has, prior to his arrival, been the engine of oppression and naked power displays) and the “Who’s To Say Syndrome.”  That is, “who’s to say” the United States should have such power?  It doesn’t hurt that Valerie Jarrett, a Muslim born in Iran, is constantly barking in his ear about the terrible US vs the poor Middle East, the “birthplace of civilization.”

It still boggles the mind that this country has devolved sufficiently that we would abjectly place an allied nation — and the world — in such jeopardy.

Scott Walker writes, here, about Mr Obama being a divider, not a uniter.

The current State of Obama.

It will only get worse before it potentially gets better.

This is with whom Obama negotiates

Khamenei Tweet About ObamaYes, the persons who continue to advocate “death to America” and, now, send Twitter messages about Obama committing suicide.

Is this not absolute insanity unbridled?  Why do we negotiate with the mentally unbalanced, those persons who have not and will not hold to treaties and agreements?

With this issue and that of Planned Parenthood, I become more convinced that I am inhabiting some sort of alternate reality from my worst nightmares.

Then I wake up and read the news for another day.
