Surprise! A ‘Good Guy With a Gun’ STOPS School Shooting

/0 Comments/in , /by

By WND. It’s another prime example of how a good guy with a gun can save dozens of innocent lives when under attack by a madman hellbent on mass murder.

A student gunman at Great Mills High School in Southern Maryland tore through the campus at 8 a.m. Tuesday, shooting and injuring two students . . .

But an armed school resource officer, Blaine Gaskill, wasn’t about to stand down or wait for backup.

He was determined to save innocent young lives. So Gaskill wasted no time in pursuing attacker Austin Wyatt Rollins, 17, who was armed with a Glock handgun.

Gaskill fired a round at the gunman and quickly neutralized the threat. (Read more from “Surprise! A ‘Good Guy With a Gun’ STOPS School Shooting” HERE)

Maryland School Officer Stops Armed Student Who Shot 2 Others

By CNN. A 17-year-old male student shot two other students at Great Mills High School in Maryland on Tuesday morning before a school resource officer engaged him and stopped the threat, authorities said. . .

School resource officer Blaine Gaskill responded to the scene in less than a minute, the sheriff said. Gaskill fired a round at the shooter, and the shooter fired a round simultaneously, Cameron said.

Rollins was later pronounced dead. Gaskill was unharmed. The 16-year-old female student is in critical condition with life-threatening injuries, and the 14-year-old male student who was shot is in stable condition.

Cameron said he was not sure whether Gaskill’s bullet hit the suspect, but he praised the officer’s quick response to the situation. (Read more from “Maryland School Officer Stops Armed Student Who Shot 2 Others” HERE)

Teen Convert to Islam Murders Friend at Sleepover for Offending Muslim Faith

/0 Comments/in , /by

A seventeen-year-old recent convert to Islam murdered a 13-year-old boy with a knife and attempted to murder two others at a birthday party sleepover. After his arrest, he confessed to police that he viewed muslim-terrorist videos and read the Koran to “give him courage.”

Corey Johnson of Florida confessed to stabbing to death with a knife 13-year-old Jovanni Sierra in the wee morning hours on March 12. He explained to police that he was upset at the young teen because Sierra treated celebrities like idols and even referred to them as “gods,” which is against his Islamic faith.

Johnson then went on to assault the mother of the house, Elaine Simon, a family law attorney, when she sought to intervene. Finally, he stabbed Simon’s son, 13 year-old Dane Bancroft, because the boy “made fun of” the Islamic way he prayed and kissed the ground.

He also told police he “stabbed the victims because of his religious beliefs” in Islam.

Palm Beach Gardens Police Department Interim Chief Clint Shannon added in a press conference last week that Johnson took the murder weapon with him to the victims’ house. “This was not a random act of violence,” Shannon said. “Our understanding is he had converted to Islam and had been watching violent videos online.” (Read more from “Teen Convert to Islam Murders Friend at Sleepover for Offending Muslim Faith” HERE)

REPORT: The Reason Democrats Are Trying to Hire Ousted FBI Official McCabe

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Daily Wire. On Monday, a newly-released report claimed that multiple Democrats are trying to hire ousted FBI official Andrew McCabe in an attempt to help him get his pension after he was fired two days before being able to collect it.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired McCabe on Friday, saying, “The F.B.I. expects every employee to adhere to the highest standards of honesty, integrity, and accountability. I have terminated the employment of Andrew McCabe effective immediately.”

The idea that a politician should hire McCabe came from MSNBC’s far-left political activist Andrea Mitchell, who tweeted: “One suggestion from a McCabe supporter: if a friendly member of Congress hired him for a week he could possibly qualify for pension benefits by extending his service the extra days.”

Ousted FBI Official McCabe Offered Jobs by Dem Lawmakers So He Can Get Full Pension

By Fox News. A growing number of Democratic lawmakers are offering temporary jobs to ousted FBI official Andrew McCabe in an attempt to help him secure a full government pension after Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired him just two days shy of his retirement.

It’s not clear if the Democratic offers could even work or be accepted by McCabe. Asked by Fox News about the possibility, a source close to McCabe would only say the former FBI deputy director is “looking at all options.” . . .

McCabe was fired just days before he would have been eligible for a lifetime pension, meaning those benefits could now be in jeopardy — something Democrats are trying to prevent.

Sessions said the DOJ’s inspector general determined McCabe was not truthful during his review of the Clinton email investigation and the FBI’s Office of Professional Responsibility recommended his firing.

Since then, at least four Democratic lawmakers have publicly offered jobs in their congressional offices.

Congressman Wants to Use Guns to Go After Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Daily Wire. A New York Democratic congressman appeared to endorse using lethal force against President Donald Trump during a March 12 Q&A session where he suggested using the Second Amendment against the president if he doesn’t follow the law and listen to the courts.

Speaking with constituents in Huntington, on Long Island, Rep. Tom Suozzi, (D-NY) said, “I mean, this is where the Second Amendment comes in quite frankly, because you know, what if the president was to ignore the courts? What would you do? What would we do?”

Democratic Congressman Hints at Armed Rebellion Against Trump

By Ed Kilgore. In pursuit of the ever-popular Beltway sport of False Equivalence, it’s common to see today’s left-bent resistance to Donald Trump compared to right-wing extremist movements of the recent past, from the tea party movement to precincts further off in the fever swamps. This sort of talk is often the product of laziness or malice. But now and then something happens that makes left-right parallels unavoidable and accurate. One such incident, surprisingly, comes from the loose lips of a member of Congress, New York’s Tom Suozzi. According to the New York Post, the Nassau County Democrat had this to say about the remedies available to deal with Donald J. Trump during a town hall meeting last week:

“It’s really a matter of putting public pressure on the president,” Suozzi said in a newly released video of the March 12 talk in Huntington. “This is where the Second Amendment comes in, quite frankly, because you know, what if the president was to ignore the courts? What would you do? What would we do?”

A listener then blurts out, “What’s the Second Amendment?”

The left-leaning Democrat says, “The Second Amendment is the right to bear arms.”

Chilling: Police Investigate Feminist, Stay-At-Home Mom for Tweets Against Transgenderism

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Life Site News. I’ve written often in this space that the trans movement will countenance no dissent in their attempts to remake our culture and implement their agenda in schools, universities, and beyond—but even I was stunned when the Christian Post broke the story of a stay-at-home mother of four being contacted by the police for making comments critical of transgender ideology on Twitter—a story that has received very little attention so far. Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull, it is important to note, is not a conservative Christian or even a political right-winger—when I emailed her, she noted in her response that she is “a feminist and pro-choice.”

Keen-Minshull’s story is positively chilling. She was contacted last month, apparently because Susie Green, the CEO of a UK organization called Mermaids which “supports transgender persons,” had decided to report Keen-Minshull to the police, who then got her details from Twitter. According to the Post, “the officer told her she was a ‘test case’ in a new ‘human rights’ fight they were undertaking.” Keen-Minshull had been tweeting about transgenderism and had been publicly critical of Green’s decision to fly her son to Thailand to “have his genitals removed when he was 16.” . . .

During the first phone call to Keen-Minshull, the police officer who spoke with her actually took it upon himself to defend transgender ideology, informing her that the trans movement was comparable to the movements that struggled to attain rights for blacks, as well as the gay rights movement. He then followed up and informed her that a face-to-face interview would be necessary and told her that this interview was compulsory—if she declined to show up, the police would consider her to be a “wanted” person. Keen-Minshull asked the officer what it would mean for her to be “wanted,” and the officer informed her that “should she attempt to leave the country she would be arrested, and that if she happened to be pulled over while driving she would be arrested.”

Keep in mind here that we are talking about a stay-at-home mother who tweeted her opinions—opinions that are widely held by many other people, including many other feminists. In a country that repeatedly says that they lack the law enforcement resources to track terrorism suspects, a mom of four who made statements on social media got a phone call from the cops followed up by a face-to-face interview, where she was interrogated about her views and informed that her own point of view was not valid.

Police Interrogate Stay-At-Home Mom for Tweets Critical of Teen’s Sex Change Surgery

By The Christian Post. Police in England interrogated a stay-at-home mom for tweeting her disapproval of sex reassignment surgery for a minor, a move some say indicates alarming governmental censorship of free speech, especially speech related to transgenderism . . .

This “test case” came as a result of comments Keen-Minshull made on social media. Specifically at issue were tweets critical of transgenderism, postings where she referenced how Green had taken her son to Thailand to have his genitals removed when he was 16. He was reportedly the youngest person in the world to undergo sex reassignment surgery. Green’s son is said to have been prescribed puberty blockers by a doctor in Boston at age 12, and Jackie Green — who was born Jack — told the Daily Mail in 2012 that he has always been and never doubted he was a girl.

“It’s just that my body didn’t match because, as far as I’m concerned, I had a birth defect,” he said.

During the initial phone call, the policeman also reportedly likened this new transgender human rights endeavor to prior struggles of blacks and gays, Keen-Minshull explained on her website, recounting the events. The officer contacted her a second time and arranged a sit-down interview with her, mentioning that if she did not attend she would be considered “wanted.” When she inquired what that meant, he responded that should she attempt to leave the country she would be arrested, and that if she happened to be pulled over while driving she would be arrested.

“I may remind everyone here that I am a stay at home mother to four children and that I am a wife! I’m not Jihadi John, I am not part of a grooming gang or paedophile ring, I haven’t hurt anyone or abused anyone. I am a woman with an opinion,” she said on her blog.

Catholic College Won’t Defend Student Threatened With Gay Rape for Defending Marriage

/0 Comments/in , /by

Catholic college students are threatening, harassing, and targeting a Resident Advisor (RA), including with a cartoon depicting him being anally raped, for posting a bulletin board affirming Catholic teaching on marriage . . .

Providence College, where this is taking place, is run by the Dominican order’s Province of St. Joseph – well-known in most places for its orthodoxy. However, in response to repeated vandalism of the bulletin board and other student employees threateningly congregating outside the Catholic RA’s door – requiring campus security to move Smalanskas to a safe, undisclosed location – the college’s president, a Dominican priest, said “it belongs to a Catholic college to consider the views of those who disagree with the Church’s teaching.”

Another administrator, Vice President of Student Affairs Kristine Goodwin, sent an email to student leaders on March 14 encouraging them to attend a protest “against homophobia and transphobia,” quoting Pope Francis’ now-infamous claim that the Church should apologize to gays, and quoting Father Timothy Radcliffe, a Dominican priest who has suggested sodomy can be “eucharistic.”

Smalanskas is a 22-year-old senior and former seminarian from Holden, Massachusetts. He’s double majoring in philosophy and theology.

What is the “offense” Smalanskas committed that infuriated his fellow students so much they’ve called for him to be fired and raped? He posted a bulletin board articulating what the Catholic Church teaches about “Marriage: The Way God Intended It.” (Read more from “Catholic College Won’t Defend Student Threatened With Gay Rape for Defending Marriage” HERE)

Doctor Admits She ‘Silences’ Fetuses So They Won’t Scream

/0 Comments/in , /by

By CBN News. Dr. Leah Torres is a self-proclaimed “Nasty Woman OB/GYN” promoting healthy sexual practices and education. The political activist and general “do-gooder” has the pro-life community in an uproar with her gruesome statements outlining how she “silences” the child during the abortion procedure.

According to a report by Lifesite earlier this week, Dr. Torres tweeted, “You know fetuses can’t scream right? If transect the cord first so there’s really no opportunity, if they’re far enough along to have a larynx.” . . .

The gory comments have people like citizen journalist David Daleiden taking to Twitter to decry her disturbing statements.

The activist known for going undercover to expose Planned Parenthood for selling parts of unborn babies says:

Some call it an attempt at dark humor. But Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America, isn’t buying it. “The tweet reveals the callousness and complete disregard for human life that is the hallmark of the abortion industry,” Hwakins said. “Joking about killing pre-born babies reflects the lack of respect for human dignity.” (Read more from “Doctor Admits She ‘Silences’ Fetuses So They Won’t Scream” HERE)

Abortion Returns to Supreme Court as Clinics Claim Speech Rights

By Bloomberg. For years, [anti-life] advocates have used the First Amendment as a weapon to challenge laws that require doctors to display an ultrasound or describe a fetus in detail to a patient.

Now it’s the anti-abortion side that says its speech rights are being violated.

The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments Tuesday on a California law that forces licensed pregnancy-counseling clinics that promote childbirth as an alternative to tell patients they might be eligible for free or discounted abortions. Pregnancy centers say they are being compelled to advertise a procedure they abhor. (Read more from “Abortion Returns to Supreme Court as Clinics Claim Speech Rights” HERE)

Actor Jim Carrey Paints Ghastly Portrait of Sarah Sanders. Where Are the Left’s Defenders of Women, Now?

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Luis Miguel. In liberals’ eyes, mocking a woman’s appearance isn’t misogynistic if the target is a Republican.

Jim Carrey unveiled a new work of art over the weekend, this time a warped depiction of White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders, whom the “Ace Ventura” actor described as “monstrous” and a “so-called Christian.”

The actor was immediately hit with criticism over the drawing.

Jim Carrey’s Crude Portrait of Trump Draws New Backlash

Actor Jim Carrey drew new backlash Monday after posting artwork in which President Trump is depicted as the Wicked Witch of the West — just days after he sparked similar outrage with a “portrait” of White House press secretary Sarah Sanders.

“If you liked my last cartoon you may also enjoy… ‘THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST WING AND PUTIN’S FLYING MONKEYS,” Carrey tweeted, in reference to the evil antagonist from “The Wizard of Oz.”

The actor’s artwork follows a picture he tweeted an image of on Saturday, which he stated was a “portrait of a so-called Christian whose only purpose in life is to lie for the wicked. Monstrous!”

Carrey didn’t identify who was in the picture, and his spokesperson wouldn’t confirm to The Associated Press that it was Sanders, but many Twitter users seemed to know who it was.

The press secretary’s father, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, wrote that Carrey is a “Pathetic BULLY, sexist, hater, bigot & ‘Christaphobe” who “attacks @PressSec for her faith; what would be hypocritical Hollywood reaction if he called someone a ‘so-called Muslim’ or ‘so-called Jew?’ #classlessCarrey.”

New Report Describing Events Leading up to Parkland Shooting Blows up Gun Control Argument

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Luis Miguel. Disgraced former Broward Sheriff’s deputy Scot Peterson is embroiled in further questions about his handling of last month’s school shooting.

Documents obtained by the Associated Press show that Peterson and two school counselors recommended in September 2016 that shooter Nikolas Cruz be involuntarily committed for mental evaluation. Had Peterson followed through, Cruz would likely have been unable to legally purchase firearms.

The documents, provided by Henderson Behavioral Health as part of Cruz’s case, were part of a psychological assessment that began after Cruz’s since-deceased mother, Lynda, discovered that he had punched holes in the wall at home . . .

The report of a September 28, 2016 interview read that Cruz “cut his arms 3-4 weeks ago and states that this is the only time he has ever cut. (Cruz) states that he cut because he was lonely, states that he had broken up with his girlfriend and reports that his grades had fallen. (Cruz) states that he is better now, reports that he is no longer lonely and states that his grades have gone back up.” . . .

If Cruz had been institutionalized, it would have appeared on his record and constituted a major red flag at the moment of trying to buy a gun. (Read more from “New Report Describing Events Leading up to Parkland Shooting Blows up Gun Control Argument” HERE)

Zachary Cruz, Parkland Massacre Suspect’s Brother, Arrested for Trespassing at School

By Fox News. Zachary Cruz, the brother of the suspect who killed 17 people on Feb. 14 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, was arrested Monday for trespassing on the school’s property.

Cruz, 18, “unlawfully entered the school grounds” around 4:50 p.m. on Monday, according to a report from the Broward County Sheriff’s Office.

Officials said that despite warnings not to enter the Stoneman Douglas campus, Cruz went through locked doors and gates and rode his skateboard throughout the property — all of which was captured on security footage.

Cruz, according to the arrest report, wanted to “Reflect on the school shooting and to soak it in.” He was charged with trespassing. (Read more from “Zachary Cruz, Parkland Massacre Suspect’s Brother, Arrested for Trespassing at School” HERE)

Rod Rosenstein Submitted False Documents to Senate Concerning His Interrogation of Hillary Clinton

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Patrick Howley. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein gave a resume to the Senate Judiciary Committee for his confirmation to be Deputy Attorney General. In that resume, provided under oath, he falsely stated the dates at which he worked for Ken Starr’s investigative legal team.

Rosenstein testified to the Senate that he worked on Starr’s team beginning in 1995 and ending in 1997. Rosenstein said that he began working at the U.S. Attorney’s office in Maryland for the Clinton administration in the year 1997. However, records show that Rosenstein interviewed Hillary Clinton for Ken Starr in the Whitewater case on January 14, 1998.

Rosenstein’s official interview with Hillary Clinton lasted fifteen minutes and cleared her of charges stemming from the seizing of FBI documents on the former Clinton White House travel director.

Big problem: That official interview took place outside of the time period in which Rosenstein told the Senate he worked for Kenneth Starr’s team.

An Associated Press wire report on January 14, 1998 lists Rod Rosenstein as one of two “Whitewater prosecutors” present at Hillary Clinton’s interview on the FBI Travel Office scandal. Rosenstein was in charge of the “FBI Travel Office case,” in which it was alleged that the Bill Clinton White House seized FBI file documents on “former White House employees.” Rosenstein swept the matter under the rug, according to insiders, and then obscured any record of it on his Senate questionnaire to be Deputy Attorney General.

Trump Lawyer Calls for Rosenstein to Shut Down Mueller Probe

By The Hill.
President Trump’s personal attorney on Saturday called on Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to shut down special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Trump campaign associates’ ties to Russia.

Trump lawyer John Dowd issued the call to “bring an end” the federal probe a day after Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, prompting firm pushback from Democrats.

“I pray that Acting Attorney General Rosenstein will follow the brilliant and courageous example of the FBI Office of Professional Responsibility and Attorney General Jeff Sessions and bring an end to alleged Russia Collusion investigation manufactured by McCabe’s boss James Comey based upon a fraudulent and corrupt Dossier,” Dowd said in a statement obtained by The Hill.

“Just end it on the merits in light of recent revelations,” he added.

Dowd had initially told The Daily Beast, which first reported his statement, that he was speaking as Trump’s counsel, but the lawyer later said he was speaking in a personal capacity. A clarification from Dowd was communicated to The Hill by another member of the president’s legal team. (Read more from “Trump Lawyer Calls for Rosenstein to Shut Down Mueller Probe” HERE)
