The Weekly Shepp Report

Your Conservative Online Source For A Summary Of The Week's News

The Shepp Report has daily access to over 70 conservative Web sites to glean for weekly stories to identify the dangerous progressive culture that clouds our freedoms. Gone are the days when news outlets provided John & Jane Doe with information to keep them motivated to run the Republic. These outlets instead ensure the Doe family is pushed out of the federal government's way through constant propaganda and social engineering. As I have warned for well over a decade, journalists no longer live with us. They only live among us . . . as if we're the aliens.

We Had A Revolution In 1776. Will America Need Another?

"Washington Post writer Eugene Volokh sees this case creating multiple problems at workplaces in the future based on the mere possibility that an emblem, a political viewpoint, or a historical article could be considered racist, even if it is protected speech.   The federal government is treading and they will trample history, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, you name it, just to be on the "right side of history." - TruthRevolt

Obama's EEOC Says This May Be A Racist Symbol [And you know what's next!]

"The EEOC acknowledged that the flag did not originate with the Tea Party movement, and was created centuries ago “in a non-racial context.” However, the commission also found that the Gadsden Flag could be “interpreted to convey racially-tinged messages in some contexts,” citing as an example a 2014 shooting spree in which white supremacists draped Gadsden Flags over the bodies of two murdered police officers." - TruthRevolt

Top Video Of The Week

 

The Arrogant Lemon Drop Kid Is At It Again. And On CNN's Snuff Network, Too!

Note: CNN has disrespected this nation's founding long before Saddam made a deal with it. And from there this disgusting snuff video network became more aloof going on to host an Obama-selected Communist on its panel. CNN should move its headquarters off American soil and over to Brussels, which is now 25% fundamental Islamic and should fit CNN's future agenda perfectly. Long live Sharia for CNN. - Webmaster

"Dan Bongino isn’t buying the ‘violence against Hillary’ narrative that the media is selling on Trump’s “2nd amendment people” comment from earlier today. In fact he told CNN’s Don Lemon that the comments on his show had reached the comical stage. Bongino pushed back hard, saying we could disagree with Trump on how imprudently he worded his comments, but that given the context that it’s obvious Trump was trying to motivate voters to elect him and vote against Hillary. He even called Lemon out multiple times for having already made up his mind that Trump’s comments were related toward violence." - CNN

Video Source: YouTube

Hmm, A Presidential Candidate, Kerry, talked about bringing a gun to the White House while Hillary said she should stay in the race because she remembered what happened to Bobby Kennedy could happen to Obama.

 

"In the latest media outrage of 5 minutes ago, jokes about assassinating disliked presidential candidates are now off limits. Never mind that Trump didn't actually say what the media is insisting he said. But the media was a big fan of jokes about killing presidential candidates. At least when the candidates were Bush or Trump. The jokes about killing Bush were too many to count." - Frontpage

Video Source: YouTube

 

"Hillary Clinton invokes the assassination of Robert Kennedy as justification to remain in the presidential race.

'My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right?We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it.'" - MSNBC

Why Obama And The DNC Want To Kill National News Outlets That Don't Obey The Legal Firm Of Ayers, Davis And Alinsky

"Obama Wanted To SHUT DOWN Judge Pirro after she exposed this leaked Info [in January 2016.] Pirro found herself the source of controversy once again when she discussed the attacks on the Western world at the hands of radical Islamists. She cited specifically the Philadelphia police attack and the terrorist attack in San Bernardino. Pirro commented that the Obama administration and Islamic radicals might as well be on the same side, because it is clear our ‘leader’ is not going to do anything to prevent these acts in the future." - YouTube

A New Finding That The Sun Is Ready To Create A Three-Decade Cooling Cycle Is Attacked By Globalists, Who Want Their Marxist Regulations Forced Upon Societies before the snow falls.

"Recent research by Professor Valentina Zharkova (Northumbria University) and colleagues has shed new light on the inner workings of the Sun. If correct, this new discovery means that future solar cycles and variations in the Sun’s activity can be predicted more accurately. The research suggests that the next three solar cycles will see solar activity reduce significantly into the middle of the century, producing conditions similar to those last seen in the 1600s – during the Maunder Minimum. This may have implications for temperatures here on Earth. Future solar cycles will serve as a test of the astrophysicists’ work, but some climate scientists have not welcomed the research and even tried to suppress the new findings." - TheGWPF

Fresh Creativity From Japanese Young Adults. Think They Need Safe Spaces?

Defining The Low-Information Voter

This domain collects news stories each week to help make it easy for anyone to learn what's going on around them. Either we wise up or we give up.

Too many of the Americans in this May 2013 video had a problem understanding what a Benghazi was, maybe a new popular drink at a local bar near Times Square? It proves that the mainstream media has morphed into the useless media, one that Washington, Jefferson and Adams would have probably spit on.

Why? Because with today's information technology, our media has no excuse for not having the details of a news story that would help educate the general public with their right to know the truth. Video source - FOXNews - Video: URL

What will America look like under a second Obama presidency?  If you don't have a clue, you better find one! Check alpha by state/city where this film is playing before November 6, 2012. Unofficial bio of Gerald R. Molen. A picture is worth a thousand words!  This photo was not actually aT the White House, but, regardless of WHERE it was taken, the fact is that he cancelled the National Day of Prayer, said that we are no longer a Christian nation, and has no problem taking part in Muslim prayer.  U.S. President Barack Obama bows to Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio at MacDill Air Force Base on January 28, 2010, in Tampa, Florida.   Iorio had honored CAIR annually in Tampa with its own day in November 2008, acknowledging the large amout of Muslims living in the area. "Ayers, now a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, claims to abhor nostalgia ("Nothing is more boring than some old person going on and on about the way things used to be"). But he has been thinking lately about the past—both his and the country's—and soon he will likely be engaged in what he calls "a dialogue" about the sixties, the antiwar movement, and the radical life he led. The spur for this dialogue will be the publication of Fugitive Days (Beacon Press, $24), a memoir Ayers has written about the trajectory of his life, from a pampered son of the Chicago suburbs to a young pacifist to a founder of one of the most radical political organizations in U.S. history."  Allow video to download and start in Window's Media player. “The North American jet that flew Obama and his traveling crew around for much of the primary season was refurbished with new seats and power for each passenger a must on the campaign trail. And the plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the Obama ‘O.’”
