The Wounded Warrior Project, that receives hundreds of millions of dollars in donations each year, is searching for new leadership. The charity’s board of directors fired CEO Steven Nardizzi and Chief Operating Officer Al Giordano after a CBS News investigation reported that almost half of all money received was spent on lavish parties and employee conferences. [It seems to us that the board, itself, must have known about this and board members also should be taken to task for participating and approving.] CBS News 2016 Mar 11 (Story)

Here is another case of ‘cooking the books’ to support the myth of global warming and to justify all the controls and taxes that flow from that. Next News Network 2016 Mar 9 (Story)

Trump won the Michigan and Mississippi primaries. He attributed his strong support to backlash against special interests and lobbyists that have long dominated politics. His opponents are desperately seeking anything they can use to discredit him, such as his untasteful demand that supporters raise their right hands and pledge to vote for him – but all of that continues to backfire, because his critics are recognized as part of the Establishment that voters are rejecting.
