/0 Comments/in , /by

Speaking during an interview with MSNBC Monday afternoon, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi went on an unhinged rant about President Trump and his Republican allies on Capitol Hill.

“We take an oath to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic and sadly the domestic enemies to our voting system aren’t honoring our constitution are right at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with their allies in the Congress of the United States,” Pelosi said, referring to President Trump and Republican lawmakers. “Enemies of the state.”

/0 Comments/in , /by

The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) reported that there have been nearly five million first time gun buyers thus far in 2020.

On August 24, 2020, NSSF contrasted the number of National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) checks from January 1, 2020, through July, 2020, with the number of checks from January 1, 2019, through July 2019. After adjusting for checks that were tied to concealed carry permits or other ends, other than sales, they ascertained that the number of checks for sales was 12.1 million.

NSSF then surveyed retailers and found that “40 percent of sales were conducted to purchasers who have never previously owned a firearm.” (Read more from “Report: Nearly 5 Million First-Time Gun Buyers in 2020” HERE)

WATCH: Planned Parenthood Admits to Changing Abortion Procedure to Sell More Baby Parts

/0 Comments/in , /by

Unsealed video clips released Monday of the sworn testimony of Planned Parenthood officials revealed they admitted to altering how they perform abortions to harvest the most “usable” baby body organs for sale.

The Center for Medical Progress (CMP) released its third video of the sworn testimony of Planned Parenthood abortionists during depositions in connection with Planned Parenthood Federation of America v. Center for Medical Progress in the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of California:

Judge William Orrick III, an Obama appointee, who in May ruled in the case in favor of Planned Parenthood, barred much of this evidence and testimony from the jury.

The latest video includes the deposition testimony of Dr. Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s (PPFA) former senior director of medical services and a current regional leader with the abortion giant’s organization.

Nucatola appeared in the now familiar first undercover video of the CMP “baby parts” series in 2015 as she ate a salad and drank wine while discussing how she performs abortions to harvest the highest quality unborn baby body parts.

Grand Jury Investigation Into Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein Is Still Active, Prosecutors Reveal

/0 Comments/in , /by

There could be more charges coming related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged sexual abuse of dozens of girls and young women.

In a filing Friday, federal prosecutors indicated that the federal grand jury investigation into Epstein, his alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell and their potential co-conspirators remains active.

Maxwell was charged in July in the Southern District of New York with four counts of sexual trafficking of a minor related to allegedly recruiting and grooming three girls between 1994 and 1997 for Epstein to abuse. She is accused of participating in the abuse of one of the girls.

Maxwell is seeking to use what her lawyers have described as “critical new information” that they obtained from the government in the criminal case to block the release of her 2016 deposition from a separate federal defamation suit that was brought by Virginia Giuffre, an alleged victim of Epstein and Maxwell, in 2015. The suit was settled in 2017, but the Miami Herald and others have fought to have materials from the case unsealed, arguing that they should have been public in the first place.

Federal prosecutors argued in the filing Friday that if Maxwell gains permission to release the information she’d like to put forth it would jeopardize their ongoing investigation.

Roughly 4 Million to Remain Unemployed Into 2022

/1 Comment/in , /by

Following the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, nearly a quarter (around 4.5 million) of the over 18 million temporarily layoffs reported as of April, are expected to become permanent, according to the latest projection by Goldman Sachs.

Nearly two million of those temporarily laid off could potentially be jobless well into 2021, Goldman Sachs predicted, according to Bloomberg News.

While the transition rate from temporary to permanent lay-offs has been historically low, “rehiring prospects for temporarily laid-off workers started to deteriorate in July,” and the figure was reported to have nearly doubled from June to July, Joseph Briggs, an economist at Goldman Sachs, confirmed in a research note Friday.

“Overall, these patterns suggest that temporarily laid-off workers will boost the labor market recovery for the remainder of 2020, but will increasingly transition to permanent unemployment as time separated from their prior job increases,” he said.

Kellyanne Conway Leaving White House

/0 Comments/in , /by

Kellyanne Conway, one of President Donald Trump’s longest-serving advisers and a stalwart defender of his administration, will leave the White House at the end of the month.

Conway, who serves as a senior adviser, said she made the decision in partnership with her husband to focus on their family. The Washington Post first reported the news on Sunday evening.

“We disagree about plenty,” she said in a statement. “But we are united on what matters most: the kids.”

Conway’s husband, the conservative lawyer George Conway, is also taking a hiatus from his role at the Lincoln Project. George Conway is a vocal critic of the president and the Lincoln Project has been working to unseat Trump during the November election.

Kellyanne Conway was Trump’s third campaign manager and has served in the Trump administration since he first entered office in 2016. She has spent the intervening years in an ongoing media blitz, appearing on television to defend almost any controversial White House policy and remaining in the job despite the record rates of turnover inside the administration.

Biden Says Harris Was Ignorant of His Record in Debate Attack

/0 Comments/in , /by

Joe Biden questioned whether Kamala Harris knew his record when she confronted the 2020 Democratic presidential nominee during the primary over what she termed as “hurtful” comments on race.

During their first joint TV interview, granted to ABC, Biden and Harris were grilled on their tense exchange during the opening debate. There, in a viral moment, California’s junior senator told the two-term vice president his cozy relationships with known segregationist colleagues in the Senate and his opposition to federally-mandated busing in 1960 and ’70s were personally upsetting. . .

“I sense exactly where she’s coming from,” he said in the interview that aired Sunday. “I think a lot of people, and maybe even the senator at the time didn’t know the depth of my record.”

Harris didn’t directly answer how she overcame the hurt to accept his offer to join his ticket for the Nov. 3 general election. When pressed a second time, she described the line of inquiry as “a distraction from what we need to accomplish right now and what we need to do.”

“I want Joe Biden to be the next president of the United States. I believe in Joe Biden, I believe in his perspective,” she said. (Read more from “Biden Says Harris Was Ignorant of His Record in Debate Attack” HERE)

Trump Administration Authorizes Use of Convalescent Plasma Treatment for COVID-19

/1 Comment/in , /by

President Trump announced Sunday that the Food and Drug Administration granted emergency use authorization for convalescent plasma, a treatment that health experts believe could treat COVID-19.

“Today’s action will dramatically expand access to this treatment,” Trump said during a news conference in the White House. “Based on the science and the data, the FDA has made the independent determination that the treatment is safe and very effective.”

The FDA announced shortly before Trump’s appearance that it had granted emergency use authorization of the experimental treatment, in which doctors take blood from a patient who has recovered from COVID-19 and whose body has antibodies that it created to fight the virus. Doctors then take the liquid part of the blood from the healthy patient, called plasma, and transfuse it into the blood of those who need treatment.

Physicians have been using convalescent plasma transfusion to treat infectious diseases for more than 100 years. It has not yet been clinically proven to treat the coronavirus disease, but the therapy has proven to be safe. The FDA said there is reason to believe the treatment could shorten recovery time and lessen the severity of the disease, adding that the potential benefits of the therapy outweigh the risk.

“We saw about a 35% better survival in the patients who benefited most from the treatment, which were patients under 80, who are not on artificial respiration,” Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said Sunday. “We dream in drug development of something like a 35% mortality reduction. This is a major advance in the treatment of patients is a major advance.” (Read more from “Trump Administration Authorizes Use of Convalescent Plasma Treatment for COVID-19” HERE)

Planned Parenthood Quietly Aborts Annual ‘Margaret Sanger Award’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Abortion provider Planned Parenthood has quietly killed off its annual Margaret Sanger award, reports the National Catholic Registry.

Sanger, the founder of the Planned Parenthood abortion mill, is not “problematic” because she once told an off-color joke or flew a Confederate flag. The woman was a monster, a vile racist and eugenicist who praised the Nazi’s sterilization tactics, including those suffering from “gongenital feeble-mindedness; schizophrenia, circular insanity; heredity epilepsy; hereditary chorea (Huntington’s); hereditary blindness or deafness; grave hereditary bodily deformity; and chronic alcoholism.”

Sanger’s disgusting view of black people might even make Joe Biden wince. In a 1912 essay titled “What Every Girl Should Know, ” Sanger warned: “It is said that the aboriginal Australian, the lowest known species of the human family, just a step higher than the chimpanzee in brain development, has so little sexual control that police authority alone prevents him from obtaining sexual satisfaction on the streets.”

That was 1912. That was 37 years after Confederate General, Nathan Bedford Forrest, a founder of the Ku Klux Klan, publicly renounced his racist past, called for equal rights for black Americans, and kissed a black woman on the cheek in public to thank her for a bouquet. Despite Forrest’s redemption story, he is still being canceled and discarded all over the place. (Read more from “Planned Parenthood Quietly Aborts Annual ‘Margaret Sanger Award’” HERE)
