Man Gropes Tourist, Telling Her She ‘Liked It’ Because She’s ‘American.’ He Messed with the Wrong Girl.

/0 Comments/in , /by

While traveling alone in Dublin, Ireland last month, a Colorado woman was harassed and physically assaulted on the street by a man who tauntingly told her she probably “liked it” because she’s an “American.”

Yeah, the assailant messed with the wrong girl. Leanna Carr, 26, happens to be a powerlifter and a strength coach, and when she felt threatened by the man, she reacted by punching him right in the kisser.

Carr was catching a bus to Galway when she felt a man grab her rear end “aggressively and intentionally.” The assaulter was reportedly laughing “hysterically” when she turned around to see who attacked her. “You’re an American, you probably liked it,” he whispered to her. That was enough for Carr to clench her fist and punch the man . . .

Carr posted a photo of her bruised knuckles to Twitter on April 21, explaining the incident. “While walking down the street in Dublin earlier this week, a man grabbed my butt. He proceeded to laugh hysterically and said ‘you’re an American, you probably liked it,'” she captioned the photo. “Apparently traveling solo has made me a better person bc my first reaction was to punch him in the face.”

Amazon Now Removing Christian Organizations

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Daily Wire. Why would the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), a non-profit, public interest law firm that fights for religious freedom, be ejected from AmazonSmile, Amazon’s program which takes a small part of a customer’s purchase and donates it to the nonprofit chosen by the customer?

Because Amazon partially depends on the radical left Southern Poverty Law Center to determine which groups should be eligible for the program, that’s why, according to ADF president Michael Farris. Farris composed a letter to Amazon in which he stated, “If you are going to rely on a discredited partisan organization like the SPLC to determine who is eligible to participate in AmazonSmile, you should disclose that in your policy and to your customers. Your customers have a right to know that you’ve placed such an organization as the gatekeeper to participation in a charitable program.” (Read more from “Amazon Now Removing Christian Organizations” HERE)

Amazon Boots Christian Nonprofit from Donations Program Because of SPLC’s ‘Hate List’

By The Federalist. A non-profit, public interest law firm which focuses on religious freedom issues has been booted from AmazonSmile, after the Southern Poverty Law Center deemed the law firm a “hate group.”

In a statement released Thursday, Alliance for Defending Freedom President Michael Farris said the law firm has been excluded from the retail giant’s program, which donates a small portion of purchases to the nonprofit of the customer’s choice. Farris said the firm’s exclusion is the result of Amazon’s reliance upon SPLC, an organization that has long been regarded as a glorified direct-mail scam that profits from hate-mongering.

“If you are going to rely on a discredited partisan organization like the SPLC to determine who is eligible to participate in AmazonSmile, you should disclose that in your policy and to your customers,” Farris wrote in a letter to the retail giant. “Your customers have a right to know that you’ve placed such an organization as the gatekeeper to participation in a charitable program.” (Read more from “Amazon Boots Christian Nonprofit from Donations Program Because of SPLC’s ‘Hate List’” HERE)

Man Arrested for Wielding Potato Peeler in Public

/0 Comments/in , /by

A British man was arrested Saturday after he was found walking the streets of Dunfermline, Scotland, with a potato peeler.

Scott Walker, 39, appeared before the Dunfermline Sheriff Court Monday, where he was charged under Criminal Law Act 1995 for carrying “an article which had a blade or which was sharply pointed, namely a potato peeler,” the Dunfermline Press reported.

The man faces up to four years in prison for carrying the kitchen utensil in public without good reason.

Walker’s defense solicitor said in court Monday her client “suffers from significant learning difficulties which have been lifelong.”

It is illegal in the United Kingdom to carry a knife longer than three inches in public “without good reason.” What constitutes a “good reason” to carry a knife is a decision made on a case-by-case basis by the courts. (Read more from “Man Arrested for Wielding Potato Peeler in Public” HERE)

Turns Out, Latest Addition to Mueller’s Team Donated to Hillary’s Presidential Campaign

/0 Comments/in , /by

The latest addition to special counsel Robert Mueller’s team of prosecutors contributed to Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign, according to federal campaign records.

Uzo Asonye, an assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, is joining Mueller’s stable of prosecutors to work as local counsel on the case against Paul Manafort, President Donald Trump’s former campaign chairman who has been indicted on money laundering and bank fraud charges.

Asonye worked at the firm O’Melveny & Myers before joining the U.S. attorney’s office in 2010. Asonye donated $900 to Clinton’s presidential campaign from January to April 2008, according to Federal Election Commission records. He has not donated to any other national political campaigns since then . . .

As The Daily Caller News Foundation has reported, none of Mueller’s prosecutors, which number nearly 20 in all, are registered Republicans. As of February, 13 Mueller lawyers were registered Democrats. A public records search shows Asonye has registered to vote as a Democrat. . .

Mueller has removed at least one of his investigators over documented political bias. Peter Strzok, a former deputy chief for the FBI’s counterintelligence division, was kicked off of Mueller’s team after he was found to have exchanged anti-Trump text messages with FBI lawyer Lisa Page. Strzok oversaw the Russia investigation after the FBI opened it on July 31, 2016. (Read more from “Turns Out, Latest Addition to Mueller’s Team Donated to Hillary’s Presidential Campaign” HERE)

Black Lives Matter Leader Declares You Have to Hate Israel to Not Be Racist, Cites Fake History

/0 Comments/in , /by

Black Lives Matter activist Tamika Mallory claims the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) can’t lead “anti-bias training” because they support Israel and have history of “attacking black people.” There’s only one problem: No such history exists.

Starbucks Coffee came under fire when one of its managers called the police on two black customers who refused to leave the store. As an apology, Starbucks will close 8,000 stores for an afternoon and mandate that all its employees go through “implicit bias” training to make them less racist. They chose the ADL, a Jewish organization, to head up the training. Mallory and others objected to the partnership with ADL, with some claiming the organization is “anti-black.”

Mallory was recently dragged through the coals for attending a speech by known racist and anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan. Similar to Farrakhan, the BLM movement in general views Israel as an “apartheid state” guilty of “genocide.” Further, the ADL has never shown any prejudice against the black community, criticizing only black supremacist organizations like Nation of Islam. In fact, the ADL supports much of the BLM’s platform on police shootings and education equality. . .

Martin Luther “King’s message was about building bridges, bringing people together, and joining forces to fight hate and oppression,” wrote Kenneth Jacobson, deputy national director for the ADL. “Comparing American racism and Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians, by contrast, seems driven by individuals more invested in undermining the Jewish state than in furthering race relations in America or working toward a solution to the conflict the Middle East.” (Read more from “Black Lives Matter Leader Declares You Have to Hate Israel to Not Be Racist, Cites Fake History” HERE)

How Politically Biased Are Universities? New Study Finds It’s Far Worse Than Anybody Thought.

/0 Comments/in , /by

It’s no secret that the majority of the faculty at our colleges and universities lean heavily to the left and generally support the Democratic Party’s agenda, and study after study over the last few decades has shown that ideological and political imbalance to be growing increasingly more dramatic. A new study has produced perhaps the most eye-opening findings yet.

An extensive study of 8,688 tenure-track professors at 51 of the 66 top-ranked liberal arts colleges in the U.S. published by the National Association of Scholars found that the ratio of faculty members registered as Democrats compared to those registered Republican is now a stunning 10.4 to 1. If two military colleges that are technically described as “liberal arts colleges” are removed from the calculations, the ratio is 12.7 to 1. . .

Here’s how Langbert leads into his study of what he describes as the “troubling” political homogeneity of faculty at our leading liberal arts colleges:

In this article I offer new evidence about something readers of Academic Questions already know: The political registration of full-time, Ph.D.-holding professors in top-tier liberal arts colleges is overwhelmingly Democratic. Indeed, faculty political affiliations at 39 percent of the colleges in my sample are Republican free—having zero Republicans. The political registration in most of the remaining 61 percent, with a few important exceptions, is slightly more than zero percent but nevertheless absurdly skewed against Republican affiliation and in favor of Democratic affiliation. Thus, 78.2 percent of the academic departments in my sample have either zero Republicans, or so few as to make no difference.

My sample of 8,688 tenure track, Ph.D.–holding professors from fifty-one of the sixty-six top ranked liberal arts colleges in the U.S. News 2017 report consists of 5,197, or 59.8 percent, who are registered either Republican or Democrat. The mean Democratic-to-Republican ratio (D:R) across the sample is 10.4:1, but because of an anomaly in the definition of what constitutes a liberal arts college in the U.S. News survey, I include two military colleges, West Point and Annapolis. If these are excluded, the D:R ratio is a whopping 12.7:1.

Hilarious: Homeless Man Says He Broke into Jerry Brown’s House Because Brown’s ‘an Open-Door Policy Kind of Guy’

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Daily Wire. . .Brown, a sanctuary cities supporter, likely never figured that his own views on the subject would return to bite him, but that’s exactly what happened last month, when a homeless man arrested for breaking into Brown’s home claimed he selected Brown’s home because Brown was “an open-door policy kind of guy.”

According to the California Highway Patrol, Steven Seeley, 51, was arrested April 19 after breaking into Brown’s mansion in Sacramento. On Sunday, speaking to KCRA, Seeley stated he heard what he thought was a large cat roaring nearby, and ran into Brown’s home through a side door. He asserted, “He’s an open-door policy kind of guy, so I figured the door would be unlocked, or else I wouldn’t have ran over there if I thought the door would be locked.” (Read more from “Hilarious: Homeless Man Says He Broke into Jerry Brown’s House Because Brown’s ‘an Open-Door Policy Kind of Guy'” HERE)

Sacramento Man Arrested for Trespassing at Governor’s Mansion

By KCRA. A homeless man was arrested for trespassing at the Governor’s Mansion in Sacramento, but not until two days after walking through an unlocked door.

In a jailhouse interview, Steven Seeley, 51, said he ran inside Gov. Jerry Brown’s home April 19 through an unlocked side door after being frightened outside. . .

Seeley said he heard what sounded like the roar of a large wild cat from a nearby garbage can before running into the home. He also said he was never approached by security before or after he entered the mansion.

Though he’s never been diagnosed with a mental illness, Seeley admits he sometimes hears things, but didn’t want to take any chances in case the roar came from a legitimate threat.

CHP confirms that a man who was “behaving erratically” trespassed inside the mansion. (Read more from “Sacramento Man Arrested for Trespassing at Governor’s Mansion” HERE)

Colossal Fake News: NBC Issues Correction on Cohen Wiretapping Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

NBC News had claimed that federal investigators had a “wiretap” on the phones belonging to President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen and that “at least one phone call between a phone line associated with Cohen and the White House was intercepted.”

. . .

NBC News was forced to issue a retraction to their story, writing:

Earlier today, NBC News reported that there was a wiretap on the phones of Michael Cohen, President Trump’s longtime personal attorney, citing two separate sources with knowledge of the legal proceedings involving Cohen.

But three senior U.S. officials now dispute that, saying that the monitoring of Cohen’s phones was limited to a log of calls, known as a pen register, not a wiretap where investigators can actually listen to calls.

. . .

To make matters even more embarrassing for NBC News, the network tried to downplay its colossal screw-up by calling their retraction an “editor’s note.” (Read more from “Colossal Fake News: Nbc Issues Correction on Cohen Wiretapping Report” HERE)

Fed-Up Christian Doctor Hits ‘Seditious’ Anti-Trump Christians with Brutal Message

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Call them the “#NeverTrump” crowd. That hashtag came to represent hard-right conservative Republicans who refused to support Trump during the election, but no matter how you label it, the trend has continued even after the unexpected winner took office.

There is a list of reasons to dislike Donald Trump: his blunt demeanor, his past personal indiscretions, his sometimes crass remarks. Some would say those qualities made him more authentic and helped him connect with the everyman, but there’s no denying that he’s a divisive figure … especially among Christians.

. . .

He knows a few things about actual war: After receiving his M.D. degree, Hamada spent a decade in the U.S. Army Special Forces, commonly known as the Green Berets. The doctor and lieutenant colonel put his medical knowledge to use as a flight surgeon and diving medical officer during this time.

The “war” the doctor was talking about, of course, is between those who envision a strong country based on its founding principles, and those who wish to “change” the nation into something socialist, corrupt and distinctly un-American . . .

“When you pile on and add to the attacks and efforts to invalidate and dismantle this administration seeking to do justly though through an admittedly faulty man who has intentionally surrounded himself with MANY Godly men and women, and instead either directly or indirectly support the opposing worldview, you are being just as seditious as the Leftists,” the former soldier wrote.
