- “All of these financial institutions, they buy politicians. You can take this big f*** ton of money and buy people … It’s not who is the president, it’s who is controlling the wallet of the president. You could buy your candidates.

The mayor of Jerusalem and his security guard wrestled a Palestinian attacker to the ground on Sunday after he stabbed an ultra-Orthodox Jew at an intersection.
Mayor Nir Barkat is shown on security footage walking to the attacker with his security guard before lunging at him and pinning the attacker to the street. Once the man was subdued by the Mayor, other residents came and restrained him until police arrived on the scene.
The video shows the attacker waving a knife around in the air before stabbing one man and attempting to stab a second. The victims were not seriously hurt according to police officials.
“My bodyguard took out his weapon and when he aimed at the terrorist, the terrorist dropped his knife and we immediately tackled him on the ground to make sure that he cannot continue with the terror attack,” Barkat told reporters.
Barkat was an officer in a paratroopers unit before going into business and politics.
The FBI has arrested a man from Butler County, Ohio in connection with a plot to kill House Speaker John Boehner.
Michael Robert Hoyt, 44, is facing charges of threatening to murder the Congressman that revolved around his poisoning the Congressman’s drinks at a country club where Hoyt worked as a bartender.
“Hoyt told the officer he was Jesus Christ and he was going to kill Boehner because Boehner was mean to him at the country club and because Boehner is responsible for Ebola,” United States Capitol Police (USCP) Special Agent Christopher M. Desrosiers said. “Hoyt advised he had a loaded Beretta .380 automatic and he was going to shoot Boehner and take off.”
FBI agents say that Hoyt had typed up an 11 page document outlining his claims against Boehner and the plot to kill him.
Agents admit that Hoyt is showing signs of mental illness but say that doesn’t mean he was not taking active steps to carry out his plan to kill Boehner. Police searched Hoyt’s home on Oct. 31 and seized an SKS assault rifle magazine, two boxes of 7.62 ammo, 35 loose rounds, a speed loader and a box of .380 rounds.
Hoyt faces 30 years in prison.
