Manhattan DA Asks Judge to Impose Gag Order on Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic District Attorney Alvin Bragg of Manhattan, New York, has petitioned to impose a gag order on former President Donald Trump.

Trump was indicted by Bragg on April 4, 2023, on 34 felony counts of allegedly falsifying business records related to his alleged payments of “hush money” to adult film actress Stephanie Clifford, known by her stage name of “Stormy Daniels,” to conceal an alleged extramarital affair with her.

On Monday, following Trump’s frequent criticism of the case and of Bragg, personally, the New York County District Attorney’s Office filed a notice of intent to bring a motion to prohibit Trump from making “extrajudicial statements” regarding the case, commonly known as a “gag order.”

“To protect the integrity of this criminal proceeding and avoid prejudice to the jury, the People respectfully request that this Court issue a narrowly tailored order restricting certain prejudicial extrajudicial statements by defendant,” began Bragg’s memorandum in support of the order. “Defendant has a long history of making public and inflammatory remarks about the participants in various judicial proceedings against him, including jurors, witnesses, lawyers, and court staff. Those remarks, as well as the inevitable reactions they incite from defendant’s followers and allies, pose a significant and imminent threat to the orderly administration of this criminal proceeding and a substantial likelihood of causing material prejudice.”

The memorandum quoted several statements by Trump on social media calling Bragg a “Racist, George Soros-backed D.A.” and claiming that he was “a danger to our Country, and should be removed immediately.” It also quoted one posting where Trump warned of “potential death & destruction in such a false charge [that] could be catastrophic for our Country” before calling Bragg a “a degenerate psychopath that [truly] hates the USA!” (Read more from “Manhattan DA Asks Judge to Impose Gag Order on Trump” HERE)

State Universities Are Teaching Students to Blow up Oil Pipelines, Records Show

/1 Comment/in , , /by

At least sixteen universities are promoting the book “How to Blow Up A Pipeline,” which outlines for readers how to commit eco-terrorism — oftentimes making it required reading, a Daily Wire investigation found.

The book was published in 2021 by Swedish professor Andreas Malm and calls for terrorism and overthrowing capitalism, acknowledging that people will be killed as a result. “Demolish them, burn them, blow them up. Let the capitalists who keep investing in the fire know that their properties will be trashed,” the book says.

Now multiple state-funded universities took classes that were nominally on unrelated topics, and contorted them into courses that read just four books, including the pipeline manifesto and a communist manifesto. At the University of California-Berkeley, for example, students of Geography & Interactive Biology were required to read the book. Instructors Jake Kosek and Paul Fine took what was ostensibly a biology course and transformed it into one on “decolonization.” The syllabus states that the “class focuses on the scientific practice of modern botanical taxonomy as a colonial formation that conditions our modern relations” and how the names of plants “were often forged to be of service to empire-building.”

The lessons across the country suggest that universities’ support for terrorism extends beyond the students supporting Hamas on many campuses. In fact, the book looks to Palestinian terrorists for inspiration, advising that, “As part of the mass resistance in the besieged Gaza Strip in the spring of 2018, Palestinians invented techniques for sending kites and helium-inflated condoms carrying incendiary materials across the wall to burn Israeli property.”

U.S. intelligence identified the book as a “developing threat” and security risk because “Malm encourages pipeline sabotage and property destruction.” Twenty-three government agencies, including the FBI, warned that the film adaptation of the book, released in 2023, could spark terrorism.

Biden’s Bizarre Mistakes During Recent Speech Raise Concerns: Refers to Xi as ‘Head of Russia’

/1 Comment/in , /by

President Joe Biden recently attended a black-tie event at the White House, hosting governors in town for the National Governors Association Winter Meeting. However, observations of the president’s recent speeches suggest an increasing level of confusion, even with the aid of a teleprompter.

During his address to the governors, President Biden touched on the need for collaboration to achieve common goals, referencing a quote from “the man behind me here.” In attempting to invoke Abraham Lincoln’s famous “better angels of our nature” remark, the delivery did not go as smoothly as planned. Some critics have questioned whether the president might have momentarily forgotten Lincoln’s name, as it was notably absent from his speech.

A video shared by RNC Research on Twitter captured a moment where Biden struggled with the teleprompter, adding to concerns about his coherence. The footage shows the president attempting to read a quote but facing difficulties and stumbling through the delivery.

Furthermore, President Biden’s mention of his interactions with Chinese President Xi Jinping has sparked controversy. He shared a debunked story about traveling “17,000 miles” with Xi Jinping, whom he initially referred to as the person who would be the “head of Russia” before correcting himself to say “head of China.”

In another instance, after concluding his remarks, President Biden appeared momentarily disoriented, waiting for guidance without a handler coming forward. He eventually voiced his confusion, asking, “I’m right here?” This moment has raised eyebrows, with some expressing concern about the president’s ability to navigate such situations independently.

Biden Brutally Fact Checked on Palestinian Support for Hamas

/1 Comment/in , /by

In an effort to continue pandering to the pro-terrorism branch of the Democratic Party, President Joe Biden sent a tweet last week attempting to differentiate between the “overwhelming majority” of Palestinians and Hamas. . .

The vast majority of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank do support Hamas. As do Palestinian-Americans in Michigan. In fact, Hamas was elected by Gazans in 2006 and the group’s terrorists wear the Palestinian flag on their military gear (when they aren’t hiding behind civilian clothes, of course).

After the October 7 terrorist attack, support for Hamas grew among Palestinians.

Why Black Republicans Are Gaining Ground Nationwide and Blacks Dems Are Reconsidering

/0 Comments/in , /by

The nation is experiencing a political “coming out of the closet” moment right now for a significant number of African-Americans who are not only supporting Republican candidates, but also running on the Republican ticket.

It’s a long-overdue reckoning of sorts for the Democrats as blacks reconsider — if not outright abandon — the party in favor of the GOP. . .

In July 2023, for instance, Georgia State Representative, Mesha Mainor switched, a life-long Democrat in a deep blue Atlanta district, switched to the Republican Party making her the first-ever black woman to serve as a Republican in the Georgia General Assembly. . .

As she noted this past July, “black children cannot read or perform simple math in marginalized communities. In my district, some of the stats show as little as 2% to 3% academic proficiency.”

In September 2023, the mayor of Dallas, TX, Eric Johnson also migrated to the Republican Party. (Read more from “Why Black Republicans Are Gaining Ground Nationwide and Blacks Dems Are Reconsidering” HERE)

Media Outlet Brutally Roasted Online After Bending Backwards to Avoid Linking Student’s Death to Illegal Alien

/0 Comments/in , /by

Social media users called out the Associated Press (AP) on Sunday after the media outlet avoided stating that an illegal immigrant was charged with murdering nursing student Laken Riley.

Illegal immigrant Jose Antonio Ibarra was arrested and charged Friday by University of Georgia (UGA) authorities for the death of Lake Riley, 22, who was found Thursday afternoon. During a press conference Friday night revealing Ibarra’s identity, authorities confirmed he was not a resident of the U.S. Early reports circulated that Ibarra was illegally living in the U.S., with Department of Justice officials confirming Ibarra’s brother, Diego, was arrested over fraudulent immigration papers.

AP News, however, posted an article on X (formerly Twitter) Sunday morning claiming Riley’s death now “highlights the fear of solo female athletes.” The article notably labels Riley’s alleged murderer as an “Athens resident,” giving no other background on the illegal migrant even though university officials confirmed Friday he was not a resident of the U.S.

Social media users reacted, quickly calling out the news agency’s lack of forthrighness taround Ibarra’s status.

Conservative activist Scott Presler slammed the outlet’s post in a reply which called out the ongoing border crisis, blaming Democrats for “welcoming illegal aliens into the country.”

How China Is Flooding America With Fentanyl on Purpose to Undermine Our Society

/1 Comment/in , /by

While we debate domestic politics to address the fentanyl crisis, the reality is that Beijing is deeply involved at every stage of the drug’s production and distribution in the United States.

It’s little wonder that in 2019, some senior officials at the US Department of Homeland Security asked for fentanyl to be classified as a “weapon of mass destruction.” . . .

Based on leaked US national security documents, Mexican government hacked emails or correspondence, and Chinese corporate records, we know that the fentanyl operation is under Chinese control from start to finish, including:

. . .Most of the pharmaceutical ingredients needed to produce the synthetic cocktail known as fentanyl are produced in China.

In the northern city of Shijiazhuang, west of Beijing, chemical companies churn out such ingredients. A highly militarized city boasting some eleven military facilities including several command schools, military hospitals, and medical facilities, it is also a government-designated national development zone. So the companies producing the fentanyl chemicals get tax credits. (Read more from “How China Is Flooding America With Fentanyl on Purpose to Undermine Our Society” HERE)

New Election Year Means Another Russiagate as Biden, Dems Try to Smear Impeachment Probe

/1 Comment/in , /by

For the 2016 election, Democrats launched Russiagate 1.0: the Trump-Russia collusion hoax proven groundless by the Mueller investigation.

For the 2020 election, it was Russiagate 2.0. Biden campaign adviser Antony Blinken prompted former CIA Acting Director Mike Morell to concoct the “Dirty 51” letter falsely claiming that Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop was Russian disinformation.

That lie justified censorship of The Post’s accurate stories from the laptop of Joe Biden’s involvement in his son’s international influence peddling schemes.

Now that we’re heading into the 2024 election, we have Russiagate 3.0. Democrats pretend the impeachment inquiry has “utterly collapsed” because of the curious indictment last week of trusted FBI informant Alexander Smirnov on false statement charges after he allegedly told his FBI handler that Hunter and Joe each had received a $5 million bribe from the Ukrainians.

In a frantic effort to keep Smirnov in jail pre-trial, prosecutors for notorious Biden protector David Weiss, the Delaware US attorney, used language ripped straight out of the Russiagate textbook: “Smirnov’s efforts to spread misinformation about a candidate of one of the two major parties [Joe] continues.” (Read more from “New Election Year Means Another Russiagate as Biden, Dems Try to Smear Impeachment Probe” HERE)

It’s Over: Koch Network Pulls Plug on Bankrolling Nikki Haley’s Campaign

/0 Comments/in , /by

While Nikki Haley insists on slow-walking the eventual suspension of her presidential campaign, one of her most important backers has confirmed that they have reached the end of the line.

Americans for Prosperity (AFP), which is bankrolled by the multi-billion dollar Koch network, announced that it was pulling the plug on financial support for Haley on the grounds that it is no longer money being well spent.

In a memo sent by AFP Senior Advisor Emily Seidel, first obtained by Politico, the organization said it intended to “take stock” of where the presidential race was going. . .

However, Seidel confirmed that despite their continued support for Haley, the money taps would finally be turned off:

Nikki Haley has shown us again and again that we made the right decision in supporting her candidacy and she continues to have our strong endorsement. She has made it clear that she will continue to fight and we wholeheartedly support her in this effort. But given the challenges in the primary states ahead, we don’t believe any outside group can make a material difference to widen her path to victory.

And so while we will continue to endorse her, we will focus our resources where we can make the difference. And that’s the U.S. Senate and House. If Donald Trump is at the top of the Republican ticket, the risk of one-party rule by a Democratic Party captured by the Progressive Left is severe and would do irreparable damage to the country.

Democrats Hint at Possible Dispute Over Certification of Trump’s 2024 Victory

/1 Comment/in , /by

Numerous House Democrats have signaled that they would not certify a 2024 presidential election win from Donald Trump, relying on the 14th Amendment to claim Trump is an insurrectionist and thus ineligible from holding office.

Democrats including Reps. James Clyburn (SC), Jamie Raskin (MD), Adam Schiff (CA), Eric Swalwell (CA), and even House Minority Leader Hakeem Jefferies refused to say that they would confirm Trump to office if he won the 2024 election.

As Dan McLaughlin explained at National Review, Democrats could have the votes to sustain an objection to a Trump win if they take control of the House. “Only a simple majority is required, and unlike when the House chooses a president under the Twelfth Amendment, they don’t vote by states,” he wrote. “Unlike in 2016 or 2004, when they were in the minority, House Democrats could be playing with live ammunition.”

Still, a majority of senators would have to object to a Trump win, too. This would likely take 51 senators, and as McLaughlin pointed out, this would be a tough task for Democrats: They “either have to hold every seat they currently occupy (good luck in West Virginia), or take a Republican-held seat (the bluest of which is either Ted Cruz’s in Texas or Rick Scott’s in Florida),” he said.

A potential way around some of this chaos rests at the Supreme Court, which heard oral arguments earlier this month in Trump v. Anderson, a case about whether or not a state, in this case Colorado, can keep Trump off the ballot based on the 14th Amendment. If the high court gives clarity on the issue of Trump eligibility, specifically that he is eligible, then Democrats would not have room to object on this basis.
