Grandson of Jimmy Carter dies in Georgia 

December 22, 2015 Last Updated at 00:57 IST - Jeremy Carter, the grandson of former President Jimmy Carter, has died near Atlanta. He was 28. The cause of death was not yet known and the case was under investigation today, Fayette County Coroner C.J. Mowell Jr. Told The Associated Press. The state medical examiner's office is assisting.

Jimmy Carter announced the death yesterday to the congregation of his hometown church in Plains, Georgia, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Carter told parishioners his grandson hadn't been feeling well Saturday and went to take a nap at his family's home in Peachtree City before he died, the newspaper reported. Mowell said he was notified of the death early Sunday. Jeremy Carter is the son of Annette and Jeff Carter, who is Jimmy Carter's youngest son.

In 2005, Jeremy Carter, then 18, was sentenced to 30 days of house arrest, three years of probation and ordered to undergo drug counseling following his arrest in a Peachtree City home break-in. Police said he was caught inside the home of a former friend taking a video game console.

Authorities found less than an ounce of marijuana in a plastic bag in his shoe and smelled alcohol on his breath, The Associated Press reported at the time. Carter had originally been charged with burglary, which could have resulted in a prison sentence, but that was reduced to a misdemeanor theft charge as the result of a plea agreement, the AP reported...

NSA Leaker Edward Snowden Offered Asylum In Venezuela, Nicaragua And Bolivia


U.S. President Barack Obama

NSA whistle blower and American born citizen, Edward Snowden, has been offered asylum in Venezuela, Nicaragua and Bolivia, after exposing the unconstitutional wiretapping and hacking crimes being committed against Americans and international citizens by the National Security Agency (which the Judiciary Report calls the National Spy Agency).


Director Of National Intelligence, James Clapper

After Snowden leaked the existence of an extensive and invasive NSA program the agency dubbed Prism, he became a target of the Obama Administration, who now want him dead or alive. According to reports in the mainstream press, the Obama Administration wanted Snowden "disappeared" and with new rules enacted by the government, granting them the unconstitutional ability to kill Americans, previously forbidden by law, his life is in jeopardy.


Edward Snowden has supporters such as former President Jimmy Carter, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and film director Oliver Stone

The Obama Administration has filed extradition papers for Snowden, but thus far no nation has been responsive. It's hypocritical that the government has filed extradition papers on Snowden, claiming he has committed crimes in blowing the whistle on unconstitutional spying, yet the government broke the law via this invasiveness against the people and James Clapper lied to Congress about it, which is a crime as well. The Judiciary Report hopes Mr. Snowden will reach his destination safely and have a good and happy life in his new surroundings.

Updated 11:57 AM EDT, Sat July 6, 2013 -  (CNN) -- Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has offered asylum to Edward Snowden, the state-run AVN news agency reported Friday, without offering details.
And Bolivia "is willing to give asylum" to the U.S. intelligence leaker, President Evo Morales said Saturday, according to a government statement.

The reports came shortly after Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega said he would grant Snowden asylum in his country "if the circumstances permit." Ortega didn't elaborate on his announcement, made during a speech in Managua, except to say his country is "open and respectful to the right of asylum."

"It's clear that that if the circumstances permit it we will gladly receive Snowden and will grant him asylum here in Nicaragua," Ortega said.

Report Indicates The State Of The Economy Is Tanking President Obama's Chance For Reelection In November 2012

Barack Obama (center)

MSNBC political pundit, Chris Matthews, who was also a speech writer of former President Jimmy Carter, this week stated what the Judiciary Report has maintained for the past two years, the failing economy is going to help destroy President Obama's chances of reelection in November 2012. The Judiciary Report stated it is imperative that Obama turn the economy around and act with transparency, to receive a second term and he has not. The numbers are still bad.

Matthews stated of the economy this week, "It is not 'steaming ahead,' unfortunately. The growth rate is well below 3 percent and that is not strong enough to bring people back to work in the numbers that will instill confidence that the country itself is headed back to business...we have a housing problem that remains an albatross--a difficult-to-explain, but devastating, situation that somehow seems to undercut a true recovery." Matthews also lamented rising has prices and their negative effect.

Jimmy Carter On Race, Obama & Joe Wilson

Video: Jimmy Carter: Wilson Comments 'Based on Racism' - The Associated Press

Former U.S. President, Jimmy Carter, stated the animosity Republican member of Congress, Joe Wilson, displayed towards current President, Barack Obama, was due to racism. Possibly.

He attributes the unprecedented outburst and disrespect shown to Obama, in the House of Representatives, to racism on Wilson's part.

Additional Comments:

While, I'm not amused with either political party, due to massive failures and moral lapses that created the current recession turned depression, as a black person, I expect, Obama, the nation's first black President, will be treated exactly the same as former Commanders-in-Chief, all of whom have been white.

Once again, as a person of color, I do not expect him to be treated any differently and when he is and negatively so, it is not something I find particularly kind or tasteful.

Jimmy Carter

Updated 11:01 a.m. 9/16/09 - In remarks decried by Republicans, former president Jimmy Carter told NBC's Brian Williams in an interview Tuesday that he believes race is at the core of much of the opposition to President Obama.

"I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he's African American," Carter said. "I live in the South, and I've seen the South come a long way, and I've seen the rest of the country that shared the South's attitude toward minority groups at that time, particularly African Americans"

Continued Carter, who is famously from Georgia: "And that racism inclination still exists. And I think it's bubbled up to the surface because of the belief among many white people, not just in the South but around the country, that African-Americans are not qualified to lead this great country. It's an abominable circumstance, and it grieves me and concerns me very deeply."...

"I think it's based on racism," Carter said of the tone of the opposition, in response to an audience question. "There is an inherent feeling among many in this country that an African-American should not be president."...
