Ben Shapiro Exposes the Media Agenda to Make You Scared of Trump

Filling in on “The Mark Levin Show” Thursday, Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro exposed how the mainstream media is attempting to scare the American people in order to discredit President Trump with voters.

Shapiro played a clip of MSNBC’s Brian Williams admitting, “Our job tonight actually is to scare people to death.” The media agenda is to make people panic, to make people think President Trump cannot rationally handle nuclear weapons and the North Korean situation, Shapiro explained.

Listen:

“They’re trying to make it seem like the real villain in this entire scenario is President Trump,” Shapiro said.

Why? Because they hate the president … and that is all they care about. (For more from the author of “Ben Shapiro Exposes the Media Agenda to Make You Scared of Trump” please click HERE)

PRO-COP Atlanta Gym Shows up Neighbor’s Pathetic Anti-Cop Gym

The owners of an Atlanta gym are the victims in a case of mistaken identity, as criticism mounts for neighboring EAV Barbell Club and its controversial “No Cop” policy.

Jim Chambers, owner of EAV Barbell Club, has an explicit “no cop” policy at his gym, where cops and active members of the military are not allowed to join.

“We’ve had an explicitly stated ‘no cop’ policy since we opened, and we also don’t open membership to active members of the military,” Chambers said. His position has ignited a firestorm of outrage from Americans who have been calling the gym and demanding an end to the policy.

But WXIA reports that many people have been calling the wrong gym, because the first result after searching Google for “East Atlanta Gym” is “Village Fitness,” not “EAV Barbell Club.”

You can imagine how the owners of Village Fitness were quite confused when they began receiving calls and had people walking in asking about a “no cop” policy.

“I’m like, wait a second — that’s definitely not us,” Tara Perry of Village Fitness told WXIA. “We do not feel that way.”

But instead of righteous indignation, Village Fitness is happy to clear things up by openly declaring its support for the police and the military. The gym put out a sign in front of its building Wednesday, declaring “We Support Police and Our Military,” and in a Facebook post reiterated its support for “the whole village.”

“When you think of an EV gym, people think of us — Village Fitness. We’ve been here so long, we’re established with the community,” Perry said. “We support our local police and military. We offer discounts for them.”

The owner of Village Fitness told WXIA he plans to keep the sign up for the foreseeable future. (For from the author of “Pro-COP Atlanta Gym Shows up Neighbor’s Pathetic Anti-Cop Gym” please click HERE)

Trump Hasn’t ‘Given Any Thought’ to Firing Special Counsel in Russia Probe

President Donald Trump said he doesn’t intend to fire special counsel Robert Mueller, who is investigating Russia’s interference in the 2016 election and possible ties between the Kremlin and the Trump campaign

“I haven’t given it any thought. Well, I’ve been reading about it from you people,” Trump said Thursday during an impromptu press conference that followed a national security briefing with his team at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.

“You say, ‘Oh, I’m going to dismiss him.’ No, I’m not dismissing anybody,” Trump told reporters, referring to Mueller, a former FBI director.

“I mean, I want them to get on with the task. But I also want the Senate and the House to come out with their findings. Now, judging from the people leaving the meetings, they leave the meetings all the time and they say, ‘We haven’t found anything.’”

Trump has called the Russia investigation a “witch hunt” and repeatedly denied any collusion.

Reports surfaced last week that Mueller had impaneled a grand jury in Washington. On Wednesday, news broke that FBI agents had made a predawn raid on the home of Paul Manafort, Trump’s one-time campaign manager, late last month.

“He was with the campaign, as you know, for a very short period of time, relatively short period of time, but I’ve always known him to be a good man,” Trump said of Manafort.

He expressed disappointment that the FBI conducted a surprise search of Manafort’s residence in the wee hours, saying, “they do that very seldom. ”

“So, I was surprised to see it,” he added. “I’ve always found Paul Manafort to be a very decent man.”

Trump said he and his administration have cooperated with Mueller, but seemed to suggest minor paperwork problems could turn up. He said:

We have an investigation of something that never took place. And all I say is ‘Work with them,’ because this is an event that never took place. Now, as far as somebody else, where did they file the right papers, or did they forget to file a paper.

You know, like I guarantee that if we went around and looked at everybody who made a speech or whatever these people did, that’s up to them. Did they do something wrong because they didn’t file the right document or whatever? Perhaps, you’d have to look at them, but there are probably a lot of people in Washington who have done the same thing.

Trump: Maybe Warning to North Korea ‘Wasn’t Tough Enough’

President Donald Trump said Thursday that his “fire and fury” warning to North Korea’s dictator may not have been strong enough.

He also turned up the heat on Kim Jong Un’s threats toward the U.S. territory of Guam.

“Let’s see what he does with Guam. He does something in Guam, it will be an event the likes of which nobody’s seen before, what will happen in North Korea,” Trump said, adding:

It’s not a dare. It’s a statement. It has nothing to do with dare. That’s a statement. He’s not going to go around threatening Guam and he’s not going to threaten the United States and he’s not going to threaten Japan and he’s not going to threaten South Korea.

During two press conferences at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey—one before and another after a national security briefing—Trump also pressed Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., to pass more GOP agenda items such as health care and tax reforms, and vowed to address the opioid drug crisis.

One reporter asked at the first press conference whether the Trump administration is considering a pre-emptive strike against North Korea, which intelligence officials believe has developed a miniaturized nuclear warhead to mount on an intercontinental ballistic missile.

“We don’t talk about that. We never do,” Trump said, explaining he didn’t want to reveal plans to an enemy, as he said other administrations have.

“I’m not like the other administration that would say we’re going into Mosul in four months. I don’t talk about it,” he said. “We’ll see what happens. But I can tell you that what they’ve been doing and what they’ve been getting away with is a tragedy, and it can’t be allowed.”

Trump added: “We’re always considering negotiations, but they’ve been negotiating now for 25 years.”

He referred to his three immediate predecessors, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton:

Clinton folded on negotiations, he was weak and ineffective. You look what happened with Bush, you look what happened with Obama. Obama, he didn’t even want to talk about it. But I talk. Somebody has to do it.

When asked whether his Tuesday promise of “fire and fury” to North Korea if it doesn’t behave was too much, Trump responded: “Maybe it wasn’t tough enough.”

Asked what’s tougher, he replied: “You’ll see.”

Trump praised Russia and China for joining a 15-0 vote in the U.N. Security Council to place new sanctions on North Korea, and Nikki Haley for her related work as U.N. ambassador.

The president also sought to calm the nerves and fears of worried Americans:

The people of this country should be very comfortable, and I will tell you this. If North Korea does anything in terms of even thinking about attack of anybody that we love or we represent or our allies or us, they can be very, very nervous. I’ll tell you why. And they should be very nervous. Because things will happen to them like they never thought possible, OK? He’s been pushing the world around for a long time.

Trump, without naming him, was referring to Kim, head of the communist regime.

Trump already had been tough on McConnell in tweets earlier that day, responding to the Republican Senate leader’s criticism that the president had unrealistic expectations.

“But I said, ‘Mitch, get to work and let’s get it done,’” he said of McConnell.

“They should have had this last one done,” Trump said, referring to the Senate’s failure to make progress on getting rid of Obamacare. “They lost by one vote. For a thing like that to happen is a disgrace.”

A reporter asked whether McConnell should step down as majority leader, on which Trump was noncommittal.

“Well, I’ll tell you what. If he doesn’t get [Obamacare] repeal and replace done, if he doesn’t get taxes done, meaning cuts and reform, and if he doesn’t get a very easy one to get done—infrastructure—if he doesn’t get that done, then you should ask me that question,” Trump said during the first press conference.

During the second press conference, Trump compared McConnell’s effort with that of Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, the wife of the Senate majority leader.

“Elaine is doing a very good job. We’re very proud of Elaine as secretary of transportation, as you know,” Trump said. “She’s doing a very good job. I’m very disappointed in Mitch. If he gets these bills passed, I’ll be very happy with him, and I’ll be the first to admit it.”

The president said opioid addiction is a national emergency, and a problem across the world.

“The opioid crisis is an emergency, and I’m saying officially right now it is an emergency,” Trump said. “It’s a national emergency. We’re going to spend a lot of time, a lot of effort, and a lot of money on the opioid crisis.” (For more from the author of “Trump: Maybe Warning to North Korea ‘Wasn’t Tough Enough'” please click HERE)

Anti-Trump Nutjob Arrested for Murder of GOP Committeeman Neighbor

A man described by neighbors as “quarrelsome” and who placed large anti-Trump signs in his yard is in police custody for the murder of his next-door neighbor – a GOP committeeman.

Police in West Goshen Township, PA, charged Clayton Carter, 51, in the shooting death of his next-door neighbor, G. Brooks Jennings in the early morning hours on Tuesday, according to ABC Philadelphia.

The conflict began on Monday evening when police officers responded to a dispute between Carter and Jennings that involved cursing and video recording in one of their backyards. Police de-escalated the conflict around 8 p.m. and left.

Shortly after midnight, police say another conflict erupted between the two neighbors as Carter claims that Jennings shined a light into his eyes. Carter purportedly told police that he then drove his car onto his lawn and shined the car’s high beams towards Jennings.

Investigators say it was at this point when Carter went into his home and grabbed a .380 semi-automatic pistol and confronted Jennings. Carter allegedly shot Jennings in the head, knocking him to the ground, and then stood over his body and shot him in the head again. Police say the victim Carter shot Jennings on Jennings property.

JAMES FRANCO Demolishes Princeton Prof’s Pro-Abortion Argument — With One Sentence

I’m not a big fan of James Franco’s work, other than Freaks and Geeks and the first 20 minutes of Pineapple Express. But I’ve always kind of admired his eclectic interests. He doesn’t let Hollywood tell him what “movie stars” should and shouldn’t do, and he gets himself into all sorts of weird, esoteric stuff. He’s a dilettante, but at least he actually seems to care about the things he dabbles in. His latest venture is a YouTube series called Philosophy Time, where he sits around with academics and kinda-sorta debates various topics for a few minutes. In one recent episode, he jumped right in and stomped on that third rail: abortion.

Here he is discussing it with Elizabeth Harman, a philosophy prof at Princeton. See what you think of her argument for why abortion isn’t immoral:

“I defend the view that there is nothing morally bad about early abortion. So, a lot of people think, ‘Well, it’s permissible to have an abortion, but something bad happens when the fetus dies.’ And I think if a fetus hasn’t ever been conscious, it hasn’t ever had any experiences, and we aborted it at that stage, actually nothing morally bad happens… So, James, when you were an early fetus, and Eliot, when you were an early fetus, all of us I think we already did have moral status then. But we had moral status in virtue of our futures… But some early fetuses will die in early pregnancy due to abortion or miscarriage. And in my view that is a very different kind of entity. That’s something that doesn’t have a future as a person and it doesn’t have moral status.”

“Can’t you only judge that in hindsight?”

I don’t mean to tell the professor her business, but when James Franco derails your argument in about 5 seconds… (Read more from “JAMES FRANCO Demolishes Princeton Prof’s Pro-Abortion Argument — With One Sentence” HERE)

China ‘Will Stop’ U.S. From Toppling North Korean Regime

If North Korea launches an attack that threatens the United States then China should stay neutral, but if the United States attacks first and tries to overthrow North Korea’s government China will stop them, a Chinese state-run newspaper said on Friday.

President Donald Trump ratcheted up his rhetoric toward North Korea and its leader on Thursday, warning Pyongyang against attacking Guam or U.S. allies after it disclosed plans to fire missiles over Japan to land near the U.S. Pacific territory.

China, North Korea’s most important ally and trading partner, has reiterated calls for calm during the current crisis. It has expressed frustration with both Pyongyang’s repeated nuclear and missile tests and with behavior from South Korea and the United States that it sees as escalating tensions.

The widely read state-run Global Times, published by the ruling Communist Party’s official People’s Daily, wrote in an editorial that Beijing is not able to persuade either Washington or Pyongyang to back down. (Read more from “China ‘Will Stop’ U.S. From Toppling North Korean Regime” HERE)

Judge Orders New Searches of Hillary’s Benghazi Emails

A federal judge has ordered the State Department to search government email accounts of Hillary Clinton’s aides for information concerning the Sept. 11, 2012, Benghazi attacks that took the lives of four Americans.

Washington D.C. District Court Judge Amit Mehta ordered the State Department on Tuesday to search government email accounts belonging to Clinton former deputy chief of staff Huma Abedin, former chief of staff Cheryl Mills and former director of policy planning Jake Sullivan. The ruling was made in response to a lawsuit filed by government watchdog Judicial Watch.

The accounts are expected to contain communications between Clinton, who was secretary of state at the time, and her staff.

“The court finds that State’s search was inadequate insofar as it did not search the official state.gov e-mail accounts of Secretary Clinton’s three aides, and orders State to conduct a supplemental search of those accounts,” the ruling stated.

Judge Mehta, an Obama appointee, explained that the State Department is unlikely able to “adequately” access emails sent from Clinton’s private server. However, he said, the department “has an obligation to search its own server for responsive records.” (Read more from “Judge Orders New Searches of Hillary’s Benghazi Emails” HERE)

‘Easy Meat’: Muslim Mass-Rape of White Girls

Seventeen men and one woman were found guilty of a host of sexual crimes against young women – many of them children – after a massive “grooming gang” was uncovered in Newcastle, England.

The gang, made up of mostly Muslim Middle Easterners and South Asians (commonly referred to as just “Asian” in the U.K.) preyed upon white British girls, plying them with alcohol, marijuana, mephedrone and other drugs.

The victims of sexual abuse were between the ages of 13 and 25. They were drugged unconscious and then raped or pressured into sex through physical or emotional abuse.

According to the London Guardian, one of the gang members, Badrul Hussian, allegedly yelled at a female ticket inspector on public transit: “All white women are only good for one thing. For men like me to f— and use like trash. That’s all women like you are worth.”

Peter McLaughlin, author of “Easy Meat: Inside Britain’s Grooming Gang Scandal,” noted Muslims make up 5 percent of the population of the U.K. but account for 90 percent of “grooming gang” convictions. (Read more from “‘Easy Meat’: Muslim Mass-Rape of White Girls” HERE)

Child Miners Aged Four Living a Hell on Earth So YOU Can Drive an Electric Car

Picking through a mountain of huge rocks with his tiny bare hands, the exhausted little boy makes a pitiful sight.

His name is Dorsen and he is one of an army of children, some just four years old, working in the vast polluted mines of the Democratic Republic of Congo, where toxic red dust burns their eyes, and they run the risk of skin disease and a deadly lung condition. Here, for a wage of just 8p a day, the children are made to check the rocks for the tell-tale chocolate-brown streaks of cobalt – the prized ingredient essential for the batteries that power electric cars.

And it’s feared that thousands more children could be about to be dragged into this hellish daily existence – after the historic pledge made by Britain to ban the sale of petrol and diesel cars from 2040 and switch to electric vehicles.

It heralds a future of clean energy, free from pollution but – though there can be no doubting the good intentions behind Environment Secretary Michael Gove’s announcement last month – such ideals mean nothing for the children condemned to a life of hellish misery in the race to achieve his target.

Dorsen, just eight, is one of 40,000 children working daily in the mines of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The terrible price they will pay for our clean air is ruined health and a likely early death. (Read more from “Child Miners Aged Four Living a Hell on Earth So YOU Can Drive an Electric Car” HERE)
