100,000 Pittsburgh Residents Told to Boil Their Tap Water

Mahita Gajanan
11:51 PM Pacific


About 100,000 Pittsburgh residents have been unable to drink tap water without boiling it first because of potential contamination concerns.

The Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority issued an advisory Tuesday after the Department of Environmental Protection discovered low levels of chlorine in the water at a reservoir and distribution facility.

The advisory continued Wednesday, as the PWSA warned that the water could be contaminated by giardia, a microscopic parasite that can thrive in low chlorine levels. However, officials said Wednesday there was no evidence of giardia entering the water supply.

"No contaminants have been found, detected in our water system," Bernard Lindstrom, interim executive director of the water authority, said during a news conference on Wednesday.

Lindstrom said the first round of testing showed that all the indicators are stable and that chlorine levels are increasing.

The scale of the advisory recalled the water crisis in Flint, Mich., where elevated levels of lead in the water affected the entire city of about 100,000. Flint's water lead levels dropped below the federal limit in January.

President Trump Threatens to Send U.S. Troops to Mexico to Take Care of 'Bad Hombres'

Associated Press
11:44 PM Pacific

(WASHINGTON) — President Donald Trump threatened in a phone call with his Mexican counterpart to send U.S. troops to stop "bad hombres down there" unless the Mexican military does more to control them itself, according to an excerpt of a transcript of the conversation obtained by The Associated Press.

The excerpt of the call did not make clear who exactly Trump considered "bad hombres," — drug cartels, immigrants, or both — or the tone and context of the remark, made in a Friday morning phone call between the leaders. It also did not contain Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto's response.

Still, the excerpt offers a rare and striking look at how the new president is conducting diplomacy behind closed doors. Trump's remark suggest he is using the same tough and blunt talk with world leaders that he used to rally crowds on the campaign trail.

A White House spokesman did not respond to requests for comment.

Much more, I can't stand reading about this sob!

FBI investigated White supremacists infiltrating law enforcement agencies: report

The FBI feared conservative backlash in bringing a shocking report to light

Charlie May Tuesday, Jan 31, 2017 07:23 AM PST

According to a classified FBI counterterrorism policy guide obtained by The Intercept, [ https://theintercept.com/2017/01/31/the-fbi-has-quietly-investigated-white-supremacist-infiltration-of-law-enforcement/ ]

“white supremacists and other domestic extremists” have been joining law enforcement agencies across the United States.

“Domestic terrorism investigations focused on militia extremists, white supremacist extremists, and sovereign citizen extremists often have identified active links to law enforcement officers,” the FBI’s guide states. Detailing the ways the FBI places individuals on a terrorism watch list, the Known or Suspected Terrorism File.

Despite the evident threat posed by these right-wing extremists, law enforcement has failed to acknowledge proper ways to combat, or even address the systemic issue.

“No centralized recruitment process or set of national standards exists for the 18,000 law enforcement agencies in the United States, many of which have deep historical connections to racist ideologies. As a result, state and local police as well as sheriff’s departments present ample opportunities for white supremacists and other right-wing extremists looking to expand their power base,” The Intercept wrote.

In October 2006, the FBI released an internal assessment noting that white supremacy groups have a history intending to infiltrate law enforcement agencies. The memo contained many redactions, but noted “ghost skins,” or individuals who mask their personal beliefs in order to integrate with society, while still secretly advancing their ideologies.

“In at least one case, the FBI learned of a skinhead group encouraging ghost skins to seek employment with law enforcement agencies in order to warn crews of any investigations,” The Intercept reported.

The report came about after widespread instances of abuse, including a local sheriff’s department that formed a neo-Nazi gang that consistently terrorized black and latino communities, and a police detective in Chicago rumored to be a KKK member that tortured at least 120 black men throughout his career, to name a few.

After Barack Obama took office, an intelligence study conducted by the Department of Homeland Security, with the partnership of the FBI, warned of a “resurgence” in right-wing extremism. The report stated, “lone wolves and small terrorist cells embracing violent right-wing extremist ideology are the most dangerous domestic terrorism threat in the United States.”

These conclusions resulted in unrest from many conservatives who felt as if they were painted in a bad light, and presumed dangerous, by association. Due to the criticism, the report was condemned by then DHS Secretary, Janet Napolitano, who also issued an apology to military veterans.

Despite re-establishing the Domestic Terrorism Task Force in 2014, the majority of the government’s efforts to thwart extremism was focused on foreign groups, rather than domestic.

“Critics fear that the backlash following the 2009 DHS report hindered further action against the growing white supremacist threat, and that it was largely ignored because the issue was so politically controversial,” The Intercept wrote.

The Intercept cited sociologist Pete Simi, who has studied for decades the rapid increase in white supremacists in both law enforcement and the military. Simi conducted a study finding at least 31 percent of individuals indicted for right wing extremist activities, to have military experience.

Alex Jones’ Infowars reportedly has a White House correspondent
for its new Washington, D.C., bureau

Tuesday, Jan 31, 2017 12:50 PM PST
Washington, D.C., bureau

Conspiracy theorists Alex Jones and Jerome Corsi will get to report President Trump from a whole new angle

Infowars will be reporting live from the White House now that the alternative media outlet’s fan, President Trump, is in office. Alex Jones’ fellow conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi, who was just hired to head Infowars D.C. bureau, will apply for White House Correspondence credentials, Corsi announced on Twitter.

Jones, one of Trump’s most boisterous supporters, claimed in a video last week that he was already offered credentials.
“Here’s the deal, I know I get White House credentials, we’ve already been offered them, we’re going to get them, but I’ve just got to spend the money to send somebody there,” Jones said in the video. “I want to make sure it’s even worth it. I don’t want to just sit there up there like: ‘I’m in the media, look our people are there.’”
A day after the video was published online, the White House press office denied offering credentials to Jones
“He is not credentialed for the White House. The White House Press Office has not offered him credentials,” White House deputy press secretary Sarah Sanders told BuzzFeed News last week.

But Tuesday, Corsi revealed on Twitter that he will be joining Infowars and seemed rather confident that he will be credentialed for White House press briefings.

he will take credit for anything good that happens while he is in office .. and he will blame
everything else on Obama as he copies everything he can that Obama has already done ...

his inflated ego will drive him into deeper psychosis

he's hysterical ... he said stuff that 'he' would do that is done, has been done for as long as I can remember .. sheesh! such a dunce but that is the fault of his very very stupid supporters. If they held degrees in someplace other than fox they would have never supported this lying cheating thieving degenerate no nothing asshole in the first place .. . BUT - stupid people do stupid things AND dumb things are done to them because they can be .. .........what a pathetic mess ... )

trouble everywhere .. .war here war there .. oh did you see how he performed in his first military raid in Yemen?... O MG! .. FAIL!
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/seal-american-girl-die-first-trump-era-u-s-military-n714346

You really need brains for everything... ..only he could & would be unable to plan top level military operations .. and god help us .. you know he will not let anyone alone .. he will interfere with everyone .. plus he's hired all inept people in the first place .. blah blah operates from non factual basis in everything ... and on and on ... we need to do the 25th amendment ...

I have an idea that enlistment in the military will go down ..he's destructively inept in every way imaginable

Well I will guess that he is a good man and simply will not do the crazy

chit that he knows is coming from the fuehrer ... and decided to go now ..

do you know why? I haven't heard/read a thing .. missed it all I guess

Not just mocking but outright humiliation of this weak, weak boy that Fred Trump didn’t love enough. If it makes him want to fire Bannon as a result, then a two-fer. (If it prompts him to start a war, well, that’s a downside.)

UNITED STATES HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL MUSEUM STATEMENT
ON INTERNATIONAL HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE DAY

WASHINGTON, DC – The Holocaust was the systematic, state-sponsored murder of six million Jews by Nazi Germany and its collaborators. Nazi ideology cast the world as a racial struggle, and the singular focus on the total destruction of every Jewish person was at its racist core. Millions of other innocent civilians were persecuted and murdered by the Nazis, but the elimination of Jews was central to Nazi policy. As Elie Wiesel said, “Not all victims were Jews, but all Jews were victims.”

The Holocaust teaches us profound truths about human societies and our capacity for evil. An accurate understanding of this history is critical if we are to learn its lessons and honor its victims.

A living memorial to the Holocaust, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum inspires citizens and leaders worldwide to confront hatred, prevent genocide, and promote human dignity. Its far-reaching education programs and global impact are made possible by generous donors. Learn more at ushmm.org.

Acting AG tells Justice Dept. not to defend Trump ban

WHOOOOHOO!

Justice Dept. will not defend executive order on travel restrictions

By Evan Perez, CNN Justice Correspondent

Washington (CNN)The acting Attorney General Sally Yates has told Justice Department lawyers not to make legal arguments defending President Donald Trump's executive order on immigration and refugees, according to sources familiar with the order.
Yates, an Obama appointee who is serving until Trump attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions is confirmed, does not believe the substance of the order is lawful, according to the sources.

"My responsibility is to ensure that the position of the Department of Justice is not only legally defensible, but is informed by our best view of what the law is after consideration of all the facts," she said in a letter. "In addition, I am responsible for ensuring that the positions we take in court remain consistent with this institution's solemn obligation to always seek justice and stand for what is right."

"At present, I am not convinced that the defense of the executive order is consistent with these responsibilities nor am I convinced that the executive order is lawful," she wrote.

USS Cole Helps Out Iranian Vessel Stranded in Gulf of Oman

Stars and Stripes | Jan 30, 2017

The USS Cole assisted an Iranian-flagged vessel after it ran out of gas late last week in the Gulf of Oman.

The Norfolk-based guided-missile destroyer supplied 17 gallons of diesel fuel on Friday to the distressed 75-foot dhow, a Navy statement said.

"We have an important role and responsibility to aid our fellow mariners in distress," Cmdr. David Wroe, the Cole's commander, said in the statement. "It was a pleasure to use our training to support the sailors with something even as little as a few cans of fuel."

The Cole, which is supporting the 5th Fleet in the region, was bombed by al-Qaida in October 2000. Seventeen crewmembers were killed and 39 were injured in the incident.

Why Trump’s Policies Will Increase Terrorism—and Why Trump Might Benefit as a Result

By Daniel Byman
Monday, January 30, 2017, 10:44 AM

President Trump’s Executive Order severely restricting visa-holders and refugees’ freedom to enter the United States is not only immoral and un-American—it’s also likely to fail on its own terms and lead to an increase in terrorist attacks against Americans. Yet if terrorism does increase, support for Trump and for harsh and self-defeating policies are likely to grow.

Let’s start with the lack of logic of the countries chosen for the ban and the actual terrorism threat facing the United States. Syrian refugees are linked to zero terrorist attacks in the United States, unsurprising given the low numbers the United States has accepted and the extensive screening they go through. Let me repeat, that number is zero. As one government official testified in 2015, “Refugees get the most scrutiny and Syrian refugees get the most scrutiny of all." So the vetting procedures are working. Refugees from other countries affected by the ban—Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen—have been involved in few plots since 9/11.

In different ways, all these countries have a terrorism problem, but that’s not the same as saying that the people visiting America are terrorists. Indeed, residents of these countries know first-hand the evils of terrorism and loath the groups accordingly. Some of the fiercest anti-Communists came from Cubans fleeing Castro or Russians fleeing Stalin: should we be surprised that Muslims who experience evil firsthand have a visceral loathing of it too? If you don’t believe me, go to an Iranian-American neighborhood in Los Angeles and praise the Iran’s ayatollahs and see what happens.

One of the reasons for the executive order was to stop the Islamic State from infiltrating terrorists among refugees seeking asylum in the United States, but it’s hard to imagine a more foolish way for the group to do so given the scrutiny refugees receive. Nor does this order make sense looking backward. The 9/11 attacks are repeatedly invoked in the text of the executive order, but the 9/11 attackers came mostly from Saudi Arabia, with a few from Egypt, Lebanon, and the UAE. None of these countries are on the list.

Trump is also sending a message to Muslims at home and around the world—America does not like you. This vitriol makes it easier for the Islamic State and other groups to recruit. For decades jihadists have argued that the United States is engaged in a war against Islam, and Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama tried hard to make it clear that U.S. wrath was focused on a small group of terrorists, not Muslims in general. Trump’s actions and rhetoric add credibility to the jihadists’ narrative of civilizational war. So far the Islamic State has not formally commented on the ban, but pro-Islamic State voices are already publicizing it. The Islamic State has long advocated going after the “gray zone”—Muslims who endorse moderate politics—and the Executive Order is a way of shrinking it in the terrorists’ favor.

Ironically, after issuing the ban, Trump signed another executive order instructing the military to prepare a plan to fight the Islamic State. “Public diplomacy” and “information operations” are part of what is demanded in the order—both essential parts of any campaign, but any new government efforts in these areas will be drowned out by the disastrous message his anti-refugee rhetoric and policies send.

At home, the biggest post-9/11 counterterrorism challenge emanates from a small number of young Muslims who have radicalized with little direct guidance from the Islamic State—so called “Lone Wolves.” They might consume terrorist propaganda, but the Islamic State does not control or direct them. For the most part they are troubled and incompetent – but a troubled and incompetent person with a gun is still lethal. Trump’s Executive Order does nothing about this problem except make it more likely these deluded individuals will believe America is truly at war with Islam.

Even putting these individuals aside, Trump’s order will alienate ordinary Muslims. They are more likely to see the U.S. government as hostile and worry that any cooperation or interaction with law enforcement could make them targets of harassment or worse. Successful counterterrorism depends on community support, and the Executive Order drives communities away from government.

What is true at home is also true abroad. The military and global intelligence campaigns against terrorism depend heavily on allies. They provide bases and troops, and they share information vital to counterterrorism. In the fight against the Islamic State, the United States is cooperating with Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and other Muslim countries as well as substate groups composed of Muslims. The more the United States is viewed as hostile to these countries’ and groups’ local populations, the harder it is for these governments to openly cooperate with America even if it is in their own interest. Indeed, some of the countries chosen for the ban are U.S. allies. Iraqi forces, for all their flaws, are on the front lines against the Islamic State, and denigrating Iraqis as terrorists does no favors to U.S. military forces working with Iraqi partners or with forces from other Muslim countries fighting terrorism.

The horrible reality, however, is that a terrorist attack, especially one at home, is likely to “prove” that Trump is right. Terrorists’ successes are always a bit random, but at least some low-level attacks would be likely regardless of who was president. Trump, however, ran a campaign of fear and dishonesty about the terrorism threat and the attitudes of U.S. Muslims (for example, the false claim that thousands of New Jersey Muslims cheered the 9/11 attacks). Polls show fears of terrorism were at near-record levels before the election despite the small number of attacks and deaths in the U.S. since 9/11, and this fear increased support for Trump’s candidacy.

Once an attack happens, Trump will probably tweet that he called for vigilance and tough measures only to be opposed by bleeding heart liberals, the failing New York Times, and Muslim-lovers naïve to the true danger. The fact that his policies made the attacks more likely will be lost in the uproar.
