[Chicago Tribune] After another violent holiday weekend, reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,... police Superintendent Eddie Johnson said Tuesday his department is doing all it can to combat violence rooted in "impoverished neighborhoods" where "people without hope do these kinds of things."
"It's not a police issue, it's a society issue," Johnson told news hounds outside police headquarters after a long weekend that saw 65 people shot, 13 of them fatally.
"Impoverished neighborhoods, people without hope do these kinds of things," he said. "You show me a man that doesn't have hope, I'll show you one that's willing to pick up a gun and do anything with it.
"Those are the issues that's driving this violence. CPD is doing its job," he continued.
Johnson pointed to increases in gun arrests this year over last year -- and more than 6,000 illegal gun recoveries so far in 2016 -- as evidence that officers are out on the streets working.
But he acknowledged that the fallout from last year's release of the Laquan McDonald video, and the amplified distrust between the police and African-American community, doesn't make it easy for his officers.

"It's not a police issue, it's a society issue,"
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Clinton aide Philippe Reines says in the 2013 email that his team had 'wired it' so that Democratic senator Robert Menendez would ask Clinton about two topics she wanted to answer about the Benghazi terrorist attack
The emails, obtained by Citizens United, show the extent of the Clinton camp's concerns surrounding the hearing and the lengths they went to address them
Clinton came under fire for failing to prevent the 2012 terrorist attack

Slick Willy lost one election in Arkansas, the rest were rigged. Hilda was his henchmate.
[Gateway] Hillary Clinton's mysterious handler disappeared in mid-August. In recent bizarre events on the campaign trail a strange man was noticed at Hillary Clinton's side.
James Montale · University of Virginia
I am 99% certain that Hillary's mysterious guard/handler is Dr.Oladotun Okunola of the Neuroscience Center of Northern New Jersey in Morristown, His professional biography states that he graduated from Howard University Medical School in 2001 and is a specialist in Neurology and Sleep Medicine.
From Wiki - "It is commonly used to treat a range of conditions including anxiety, alcohol withdrawal syndrome, benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome, muscle spasms, seizures, trouble sleeping, and restless legs syndrome."
Don't believe 'Sleep' is the issue.

What makes me wonder is, why carry it in his hand unless the 3-5 seconds it might take to get it from a jacket pocket might be a fatal delay?

Narcolepsy is sometimes misdiagnosed as restless leg syndrome... But sleep apnea (loud snoring) is also a sleep disorder. Narcolepsy is treated with sleep medication, apnea by wearing a breathing mask at night; neither requires constant companionship, let alone a doctor hovering within reach.

The KBK videolink above is the most reasoned, compelling discussion I have seen on the Parkinson's question. It is worth the 16 minute view. You will be strongly persuaded.

HX Concussion and head injury, as well as reported lapse of memory and consciousness.
Cough may indicate dysphagia. That means swallowing difficulties, including her own saliva.
Problems with balance and gait? Head injuries can cause that too.
Diazepam at the ready is mainly for seizures - no other reason for a dose of that on-hand for administration stat. Seizures indicate an ongoing brain issue.
No Trump/conspiracy mongering. This is a legit indication of traumatic brain injury and possible damage. She needs to come clean.
[DAYTONDAILYNEWS] A Senate Democratic political action committee is cancelling three weeks of pro-Ted Strickland commercials scheduled to begin airing Sept. 20.
It’s another sign that national Democrats are losing faith that the former Ohio governor can beat Republican Sen. Rob Portman in the race for U.S. Senate.
Shripal Shah, a front man for Senate Majority PAC, confirmed that the PAC had cancelled roughly $3 million worth of ads scheduled to run in Columbus, Cleveland, kept in touch with the world by Obamaphone, ...was ruled by a Democrat machine from 1942 through 1971. After the river caught fire during the administration of Carl Stokes they tried a Republican, then went back to being Democrats when the party hacked up Dennis Kucinich ... , Dayton and Toledo.
Interesting that they hadn't planned to bother with Cincinnati. While the region is pretty Republican, the city of Cincinnati is very strongly Democrat. On the other hand, we've been seeing anti-Strickland advertising here for months, and the Strickland campaign is running their own ads down here.
The ads were to run Sept. 20 through Oct. 10, but weren’t running for the entirety of the time in all four markets.
Shah said that the PAC still has time reserved from Oct. 11 through Election Day.
"As we’ve said previously, we regularly adjust our spending to maximize resources and make sure we’re in the best possible position to win this November," he said.
A Strickland front man said Strickland was still enthusiastic about his chances.
"There’s still a lot of race left to run, and there’s no one who knows Ohio better or is a stronger grassroots campaigner than Ted Strickland," Strickland’s campaign front man David Bergstein said. "We just recently launched our paid media campaign, the national environment is rapidly deteriorating around Portman, he’s facing a daily firestorm about his continued support for Trump -- and Portman’s small, weak field operation can’t compete with the Ohio Democratic Party’s coordinated field campaign which has hundreds of organizers and volunteers across the state working to elect Ted, Secretary Clinton and Democrats at every level."
The Democratic Senatorial Senate Committee canceled ads for Strickland last week but shifted money to pay for ads already scheduled by the campaign.
In latest polling, Strickland was nine points behind Portman, who has benefited from better fundraising.

Although Portman is preferable to Strickland, he is a do nothing McConnell RINO.
I think the obvious question here is, does this mean Ohio is Trump's?
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] President B.O. used politicians' first day back in Washington after a seven-week recess to push the Senate on judicial nominations.
Obama nominated Abid Riaz Qureshi to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on Tuesday.
Qureshi, a partner in a Washington law firm who specializes in False Claims Act cases, healthcare fraud and securities violations, is the first Moslem nominated to the federal bench.
"I commend President B.O. for taking this important step in continuing to pick the best and brightest from every community to serve as part of our nation's judiciary," stated Farhana Khera, former counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee and executive director of a Moslem legal advocacy organization. "A judiciary that reflects the rich diversity of our nation helps ensure the fair and just administration of the law," he added.
Qureshi nomination comes as Democratic politicians and groups are trying to pressure Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., to move forward with Judge Merrick Garland's nomination to the Supreme Court.
For example, several lawyers and legal professors who have clerked for Garland at the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals are holding a rally for their former boss on the steps of the Supreme Court on Wednesday.
Obama nominated Garland to replace the-late Justice Antonin Scalia on March 16.
"The Senate's obstruction on Judge Garland's nomination is emblematic of the blockade throughout the entire judicial system," stated Why Courts Matter, the group hosting Wednesday's rally. "The clerks and advocates will also call on the Senate to act on the backlog of lower court nominees, some of whom have been waiting for months, and even years, for a hearing or a vote on the Senate floor."

The Clintons stole $190,000 worth of stuff from the WH on their way out of office. Obama wants to be the first Muslim POTUS to appoint the first Pakistani born Muslim to be a federal judge. Kind of like jamming his thumb in the eye of the American people on his way out. Would he uphold Sharia law or the U.S. Constitution. Anybody want to take a chance? I didn't think so. Me either.

He knows the Republicans won't vote on anyone at this point so he can now (a) be mr PC (b) call them racists for not voting on a Muslim. Not a bad political play but I suspect it may backfire with the bulk of the country.
