Brennan Pushes Another Conspiracy Theory: Mueller Proved Collusion!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former CIA Director John Brennan on Tuesday falsely claimed special counsel Robert Mueller’s report actually further proves Donald Trump’s campaign and Russia worked together during the 2016 presidential election.

“I subsequently learned from the Mueller report that there was a lot more evidence of collusion and obstruction of justice than was indicated in the misleading & highly politicized Barr memo. Your obvious fear of Congressional action is warranted & your dishonesty is appalling,” Brennan said in response to President Trump posting an embarrassing quote from the longtime Deep Stater.

Trump quoted Brennan admitting that Trump-Russia conspiracies were much bigger in his own mind than in reality — “I don’t know if I received bad information, but I think I suspected there was more than there actually was” — one day after Attorney General William Barr told Congress that the special counsel did not uncover evidence of cooperation between the Trump campaign and Russia. Further, Barr and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who once reportedly volunteered to wear a wire in meeting with President Trump, determined that the president did not obstruct justice in relation to the Mueller probe.

“I don’t know if I received bad information, but I think I suspected there was more than there actually was,” the former CIA chief told MSNBC’s Morning Joe of Mueller’s findings. (Read more from “Brennan Pushes Another Conspiracy Theory: Mueller Proved Collusion!” HERE)

Pelosi’s Ridiculous Claim: Trump May Have Committed ‘Impeachable Offense’ in ‘Plain Sight’

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told a left-leaning audience on Wednesday that President Trump may have committed “an impeachable offense,” ratcheting up her warnings to the White House even as she and her deputies try to tamp down calls from the rank-and-file to press forward on impeachment now.

Pelosi, D-Calif., speaking at the Center for American Progress 2019 Ideas Conference in Washington, D.C., outlined a potential path to impeachment — moments after a contentious meeting at the White House ended with Trump departing for the Rose Garden to publicly accuse Democrats of a presidential “takedown.”

“The fact is, in plain sight, in the public domain, this president is obstructing justice and he’s engaged in a cover-up. And that could be an impeachable offense,” Pelosi told the audience, which broke out in applause.

“Ignoring the subpoenas of Congress was Article 3 of the Nixon Impeachment. So, it’s not just the substance that we are after, that we want to have to get the truth to the American people, but in striving to get that the intervention, the obstruction that the administration is engaged in is, as they say, the cover-up is frequently worse than the crime.” . . .

“Let me just say, we take on oath of office, to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. Democrats take that oath seriously, and we are committed to honoring our oath of office. I’m not sure our Republican colleagues share that commitment, and I’m not sure the President of the United States does.” (Read more from “Pelosi’s Ridiculous Claim: Trump May Have Committed ‘Impeachable Offense’ in ‘Plain Sight'” HERE)

Pentagon Makes Startling Admission Regarding UFO Investigations

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Fox News. The Pentagon has finally uttered the words it always avoided when discussing the possible existence of UFOs — “unidentified aerial phenomena” — and admits that it still investigates reports of them.

In a statement provided exclusively to The Post, a Department of Defense spokesman said a secret government initiative called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program “did pursue research and investigation into unidentified aerial phenomena.”

And while the DOD says it shut down the AATIP in 2012, spokesman Christopher Sherwood acknowledged that the department still investigates claimed sightings of alien spacecraft.

“The Department of Defense is always concerned about maintaining positive identification of all aircraft in our operating environment, as well as identifying any foreign capability that may be a threat to the homeland,” Sherwood said.

“The department will continue to investigate, through normal procedures, reports of unidentified aircraft encountered by US military aviators in order to ensure defense of the homeland and protection against strategic surprise by our nation’s adversaries.” (Read more from “Pentagon Makes Startling Admission Regarding UFO Investigations” HERE)

Internal Memo Orders Military to Restrict Information It Shares with Congress

By The Washington Post. Acting defense secretary Patrick Shanahan has mandated new restrictions on the way the Pentagon shares information with Congress about military operations around the world, a move that is straining ties with key Republican and Democratic lawmakers.

In a May 8 internal memo, which was obtained by The Washington Post, Shanahan lays out the criteria for when Pentagon officials may provide congressional offices or committees information they request about operational plans and orders.

The memo comes as lawmakers from both parties complain that the Trump administration has withheld information that prevents them from executing their constitutionally mandated oversight role. Some lawmakers are also concerned about whether Shanahan has allowed the military to be drawn too deeply into President Trump’s immigration agenda.

Nevada Passes Bill to Give Electoral Votes to National Popular Vote Winner

/0 Comments/in , /by

If Nevada’s Democratic governor signs a bill passed by the state senate Tuesday into law, his state will have moved the National Popular Vote movement six votes closer to effectively nullifying the Electoral College as established in the U.S. Constitution.

By a vote of 12-8, the Nevada Senate passed AB 186 on Tuesday, which if signed by Gov. Steve Sisolak, will add Nevada’s six electoral votes to the 189 votes already pledged by 14 other states in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which would “guarantee the Presidency to the candidate who receives the most popular votes across all 50 states and the District of Columbia.” If triggered, the pact would override the majority decision of voters in particular states.

Thus far, 14 states and one district have officially passed the measure, their collective electoral vote total currently at 189. The compact requires a minimum of 270 total pledged electoral votes to go into effect. Should Sisolak sign the bill, the total would edge up to 195 votes.

The 15 jurisdictions, which are predominantly blue, that have signed on thus far are: California (55), Colorado (9), Connecticut (7), Delaware (3), the District of Columbia (3), Hawaii (4), Illinois (20), Massachusetts (11), Maryland (10), New Jersey (14), New Mexico (5), New York (29), Rhode Island (4), Vermont (3), and Washington (12).

“The bill has passed one house in 9 additional states with 82 electoral votes (AR, AZ, ME, MI, MN, NC, NV, OK, OR), including a 40–16 vote in the Republican-controlled Arizona House and a 28–18 in Republican-controlled Oklahoma Senate, and been approved unanimously by committee votes in two additional Republican-controlled states with 26 electoral votes (GA, MO),” the National Popular Vote website explains.

Muslim Arrested for Threatening to Blow up Trump Tower

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Department of Justice announced on Wednesday that an Islamic man in New Jersey has been arrested for allegedly threatening to blow up Trump Tower and the Israeli embassy in New York City, providing support to Hamas, and threatening to shoot up pro-Israel supporters.

The 20-year-old man, who will not be named by The Daily Wire, was arrested on Wednesday morning for “attempting to provide material support to Hamas, lying on his application to enlist in the U.S. Army, and making a threat against pro-Israel supporters,” the DOJ said in a statement.

According to the criminal complaint, the suspect emailed the Al-Qassam Brigades, which is the military wing of the Palestinian-Arab Hamas terrorist organization, stating that he “reverted to Islam a few weeks ago” and was interested in joining the group.

“In April 2019, [the suspect] appeared in an Instagram Live video wearing a black ski mask and stated that he was against Zionism and the neo-liberal establishment. When asked by another participant in the video if he would go to Gaza and join Hamas, [the suspect] stated ‘yes, If I could find a way,'” the DOJ stated. “Later in the video, [the suspect] displayed a Hamas flag and retrieved a handgun. He then stated ‘I’m gonna go to the [expletive] pro-Israel march and I’m going to shoot everybody.'”

In other social media posts, the suspect stated, “I want to shoot the pro-israel demonstrators … you can get a gun and shoot your way through or use a vehicle and ram people … all you need is a gun or vehicle to go on a rampage … I do not care if security forces come after me, they will have to put a bullet in my head to stop me.” (Read more from ” (Read more from “Muslim Arrested for Threatening to Blow up Trump Tower” HERE)

American Taliban Fighter Released Early

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Thursday, John Walker Lindh, also known as the “American Taliban” fighter, will be released after serving 17 and a half years of his 20-year sentence. In response, Sen. Richard Shelby (R-AL) and Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) demanded answers in a letter sent to the acting director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

In the letter, the senators requested information about “what steps the U.S. government is taking to ensure public safety,” citing a 2017 Foreign Policy article that claims Lindh fully intends to continue spreading his terrorist ideology after his release.

The senators also mentioned that 108 other convicted ISIS, al-Qaeda, or Taliban terrorists will soon be released from prison after completing their sentences over the next few years.

“Little information has been made available to the public about who, when, and where these offenders will be released, whether they pose an ongoing public threat, and what federal agencies are doing to mitigate this threat while the offenders are in federal custody,” the senators’ letter reads.

The letter also cited a report by the chief United States probation officer, the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota’s Kevin Lowery, that suggests “that neither the Bureau of Prisons nor the Federal Judiciary’s Probation and Pretrial Services have sufficient nationwide programming to prevent incarcerated terrorist offenders from returning to violence upon completion of their sentences.” (Read more from “American Taliban Fighter Released Early” HERE)

Is This Why Justin Amash Is Pushing for Trump’s Impeachment?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. . . .Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) had a tantrum because former White House Counsel Don McGahn decided to wipe his rear end with the subpoena that was issued to him. It’s part of the Trump White House’s legal strategy of slapping away these worthless subpoenas because we all know these aren’t oversight investigations. They’re impeachment hearings. They’re aimed at trying to get the president over anything, something.

Storm noted that there’s been a liberal shift in the programming at Fox New on the weekends, which could be a sign that we’re in the post-Roger Ailes era. Rupert Murdoch’s sons are running the show—and they’re not conservatives. He’ll walk you through it folks, but let’s just say that Chris Wallace should find guests who aren’t liberals or former Obama officials. This is Fox News after all. . .

And alas, we come to Rep. Justin Amash (R-MI), one of the few libertarians in Congress, who recently declared that Trump could be impeached, which is rich given that police state tactics were used against the president and some of his staff during the 2016 election. Also, there could be a China connection. Yep, trade is causing tension between the U.S. and China and it would seem that the Michigan congressman has some investments that could get squeezed. Sofia Carbone at Human Events has the story:

In 2010 the Michigan Live website detailed how Amash and his family were ostensibly profiting from the creation of tools in China which were then sold by the Amash family business in Michigan.

The impeachment impresario’s 2017 Financial Disclosure Report details the congressman reported between $100,001 and $1,000,000 in income from a company called Michigan Industrial Tools, which in turn is owned by Dynamic Source International, based in China. Dynamic Source International manufactures products overseas and sells them in the United States via Michigan Industrial Tools (MIT).

Trump Impeachment Call from Rep. Amash ‘Very Disturbing,’ Kevin McCarthy Says

By Fox News. House GOP Chairman Kevin McCarthy is disputing five-term Congressman Justin Amash’s call for President Trump’s impeachment.

Joining a growing chorus of Republicans, McCarthy said Tuesday that Rep. Amash, D-Mich., was out of step with others in the Republican Party and with the American people.

On “Sunday Morning Futures” this past weekend he told Maria Bartiromo, “What he wants is attention in this process. He’s not a criminal attorney. He’s never met Mueller. He’s never met Barr. And now he’s coming forward with this?”

“It’s very disturbing,” McCarthy remarked. “This is exactly what you would expect from Justin. He never supported the president. And I think he’s just looking for attention.” (Read more from “Trump Impeachment Call from Rep. Amash ‘Very Disturbing,’ Kevin McCarthy Says” HERE)

Report Reveals the Happiest Wives Are ‘Religious Conservatives’ – Twitter Erupts

/0 Comments/in , /by

The New York Times caused an avalanche of social media anger on Sunday after publishing a report finding that the happiest of all American wives consider themselves religious conservatives. . .

The report, titled, “The Ties That Bind: Is Faith a Global Force for Good or Ill in the Family?” from the Institute for Family Studies and the Wheatley Institution, found that women who report above-average satisfaction with their marriages are religious conservative women.

A portion of the op-ed, which was co-authored by three researchers, stated, “Fully 73 percent of wives who hold conservative gender values and attend religious services regularly with their husbands have high-quality marriages.” . . .

Ben Carson Delivers Truth Bomb to Dems: ‘You Take Care of Your Own First’

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Blaze. Democratic House lawmakers expressed outrage at a proposed plan by Housing and Urban Development to prohibit families led by illegal immigrants from living in federally-subsidized homes, according to The Hill.

HUD Secretary Ben Carson was testifying before the House Financial Services Committee on Tuesday, and was made to respond to fierce criticism of a plan the department estimates could result in 32,000 households being subject to eviction.

“It’s not that we’re cruel, mean-hearted,” Carson told the committee. “It’s that we are logical. This is common sense. You take care of your own first.”

Currently, families that include both legal residents/U.S. citizens and illegal immigrants are eligible to live in federal housing. HUD is proposing tightening up that rule so that only families that are fully legal can take advantage of the housing aid.

The likely result is thousands of families with one or more illegal parent who have legal children will be forced to move out of federal housing. (Read more from “Ben Carson Delivers Truth Bomb to Dems: ‘You Take Care of Your Own First'” HERE)

Carson on HUD Eviction Plan: ‘You Take Care of Your Own First’

By The Hill. . .HUD estimates that 32,000 federally subsidized households and 55,000 children would be subject to evictions under its proposal. That could force thousands of U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants, along with legal permanent residents, refugees, and asylum-seekers, into homelessness.

“I hope and pray that you rethink that,” said Rep. Juan Vargas (D-Calif.), adding that he couldn’t believe “that this rule could come from you.”

“I don’t think you’re mean-spirited at all,” Vargas continued. “I have to say, taking these 55,000 children and putting them on the street is mean-spirited. I don’t think it’s your nature.”

Carson and House Republicans insisted Tuesday that the evictions are necessary to comply with federal law and cut down a waiting list of more than 4 million U.S. citizens seeking HUD-subsidized housing.

“It’s not that we’re cruel, mean-hearted. It’s that we are logical,” Carson said. “This is common sense. You take care of your own first.” (Read more from “Carson on HUD Eviction Plan: ‘You Take Care of Your Own First'” HERE)

Ocasio-Cortez Issues Bizarre Judgement on ‘Colonial’ Nature of This Specific Vegetable

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) bizarrely identified the planting of a specific vegetable in neighborhood communal gardens as a “colonial” act that turns off minorities on environmentalism.

The upstart socialist Democrat outed the cauliflower as the colonial culprit in an Instagram post touting her enlightened preference for woke plants, like Yucca.

“What I love too is growing plants that are culturally familiar to the community. It’s so important,” Ocasio-Cortez said in the post.

“That is such a core component of the Green New Deal is having all of these projects make sense in a cultural context,” she explained, “and it’s an area that we get the most pushback on because people say, ‘Why do you need to do that? That’s too hard!'” (Read more from “Ocasio-Cortez Issues Bizarre Judgement on ‘Colonial’ Nature of This Specific Vegetable” HERE)

AOC: Growing Cauliflower Is ‘Colonial Approach’ to Vegetables

By Washington Examiner. “So that’s really how you do it right. That is such a core component of the Green New Deal is having all of these projects make sense in a cultural context, and it’s an area that we get the most pushback on because people say, ‘Why do you need to do that? That’s too hard,’” Ocasio-Cortez said in another Instagram video of her walking the streets of New York after leaving the community garden.

“But when you really think about it — when someone says that it’s ‘too hard’ to do a green space that grows Yucca instead of, I don’t know, cauliflower or something — what you’re doing is that you’re taking a colonial approach to environmentalism, and that is why a lot of communities of color get resistant to certain environmentalist movements because they come with the colonial lens on them,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
