FBI Director Apparently Doesn’t Know How Buying a Gun on the Internet Works
Comey, perhaps surprised by the question, seemed to stumble. Graham clarified, asking “if I try to buy a gun on the internet, where do I pick it up?” Looking perplexed, the FBI Director replied “I assume it’s shipped to you, but I don’t know for sure, actually.”As the Director of the FBI, he should be well aware of the fact that if a private citizen purchases a firearm on the internet, that gun is then shipped to a Federal Firearms License holder (FFL). The individual must then pick up the gun from his or her FFL and pass a background check to take ownership of the gun, a process that is often referred to as a transfer.

How El Niño Made the Pacific a Hurricane Hotbed in 2015
El-Niño-influenced storms raged throughout the Pacific during this year's six-month hurricane season, which lasted from June 1 to Nov. 30. Even the central Pacific Ocean and the northwest Indian Ocean saw cyclones, a rare occurrence, according to a report at NASA's Earth Observatory. But the Atlantic spent its third consecutive year with below-average storm activity, the Earth Observatory reported.

Islam is at War with America: But Does America Understand that She is at War with Islam?
We have already been “infiltrated” by Islamic folks at the highest levels of our government. In the name of “political correctness” and “multiculturalism” and “leftwing liberal tolerance”, we now have Islamists in the White House, the State Dept, the FBI, Homeland Security. Truly the Trojan horse of Islam has fully penetrated American society at even the very highest levels of government, including the White House.

Obama Told NSC And FBI To ‘Downplay’ Terrorist Angle Of San Bernardino
Part of the reason for trying to avoid the designation of the shootings as terrorism is because it threatens to upset the Obama administration’s strategy in Syria. A case of Islamic terrorism in the U.S. would put additional pressure on the administration to play a much more active role in the conflict. But in this case, because the preponderance evidence so pointed to terrorism, the FBI’s hand was forced, and the agency declared the existence of a terrorism investigation, going against top-down priorities from the White House.

Confirmed Dinosaur Blood on Ancient Fossil Astonishes Evolutionists
Researchers have confirmed that biomaterial discovered on an ancient fossil is in fact preserved dinosaur blood, astonishing evolutionists who continue to believe the fossil is 80 million years old. scientists are left with two possible explanations: either the dinosaur blood somehow defied expectations and survived for 80 million years, or the dinosaur fossil is not nearly as old as most people believe.
