Man Captures Video of ‘Patient Dumping’ Outside Hospital

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Overnight, Imamu Baraka was walking past a Baltimore hospital when he noticed something he says he’ll never forget.

The hospital’s security guards had just wheeled a patient to a bus stop, and in the freezing temperatures they left her there. The only thing she had on was a hospital gown.

“It’s about 30 degrees out here right now,” Baraka says in a recording of the encounter. “Are you OK, ma’am? Do you need me to call the police?” he asks.

It’s called “patient dumping” and it doesn’t just happen in Baltimore. In 2007, “60 Minutes” investigated the practice of removing homeless patients from Los Angeles hospitals and leaving them downtown.

Often the patients are not insured or have other financial issues, but it’s unclear if that was the case in Baltimore. (Read more from “Man Captures Video of ‘Patient Dumping’ Outside Hospital” HERE)

Harvey Weinstein was attacked Tuesday night at a restaurant … TMZ has learned.

Weinstein was at Elements restaurant at the Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort in Scottsdale, eating dinner with his sober coach when 2 men sat at a table next to them . . .

At around 9 PM, Weinstein and his sober coach got up to leave at the same time Steve and his dinner companion were leaving. Steve tells TMZ he had “quite a bit to drink,” told his friend to fire up his cell phone and shoot video of what was about to happen.

Steve says he walked up to Weinstein and said, “You’re such a piece of s*** for what you did to these women,” and then punched him in the face twice. He says Weinstein stumbled backward and almost fell. (Read more from “Watch: Harvey Weinstein Attacked at Restaurant” HERE)

Trump’s DACA Deal Could Flip 4 States to Dems

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump has long promised he will secure the U.S.-Mexico border with a “big beautiful wall,” but a major bargaining chip in his negotiations possibly could flip four or even five traditionally Republican-leaning states to Democrats in future elections.

Those states are: Texas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia and North Carolina.

Of the five, Texas, with 34 electoral votes, has the most impact on presidential election outcomes. Florida has 29; North Carolina, 15; Georgia, 16; and Arizona, 11. In 2016, Trump won Texas 52.2 percent to Hillary Clinton’s 43.2 percent. His winning margin in Florida was much tighter at 48.6 percent to 47.4 percent. Trump took North Carolina with 49.8 percent to 46.2 percent; Arizona, 48.1 percent to 44.6 percent; and Georgia, 50.4 percent to Clinton’s 45.3 percent.

But political trends in those traditionally Republican-leaning states could see a shift if illegal immigrants known as DREAMers, or illegal immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as minors, are offered amnesty and particularly if they’re eventually given voting rights. Those fives states host large numbers DREAMers, as Fortune magazine reported last January.

The issue began in 2012, when then-President Obama signed an executive order giving work permits and temporary residence to more than 800,000 noncitizens under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program. In making his announcement, Obama stated: “Effective immediately, the Department of Homeland Security is taking steps to lift the shadow of deportation from these young people. Over the next few months, eligible individuals who do not present a risk to national security or public safety will be able to request temporary relief from deportation proceedings and apply for work authorization.” (Read more from “Trump’s DACA Deal Could Flip 4 States to Dems” HERE)

Clinton ‘Sex Victim’ Lashes out at Oprah

/0 Comments/in , /by

Oprah Winfrey’s rant at the Golden Globes award ceremony about how women who are victims of assault should stand up, speak out and fight back has gotten a lot of attention . . .

But Juanita Broaddrick, who has stated that Bill Clinton, when he was attorney general in Arkansas, the state’s top law-enforcement officer, raped her, went to Twitter to chastise Oprah and her followers.

“According to Oprah on the Golden Globes, everybody has their own truth (and voice). Just not Weinstein’s accusers … oh yeah, and Juantia Broaddrick doesn’t get a voice either,” the site said.

Commented Twitchy: “Awww, look at Oprah with her good buddy, Bill. This is just pathetic. Look up at that picture. That’s why.”

Broaddrick later added: “Remember this @Oprah. You’ve had so many opportunities to bring up my allegations, which have never been discredited. Why??”

Fusion Admits McCain Role in Anti-Trump Dossier

/0 Comments/in , /by

The founders of the controversial opposition research firm Fusion GPS admitted that they helped the researcher hired to compile the infamous, largely discredited 35-page dossier on President Donald Trump to share the document with Sen. John McCain.

The goal of providing the dossier to McCain, the Fusion GPS founders explained, was to pass the information contained in the questionable document to the U.S. intelligence community under the Obama administration.

The disclosure raises questions about whether McCain knew that the information he delivered to the intelligence community was actually an opposition document reportedly funded by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee . . .

Last December, it was revealed that it was McCain who notoriously passed the controversial dossier documents produced by the Washington opposition research firm Fusion GPS to then FBI Director James Comey, whose agency reportedly utilized the dossier as a basis for its probe into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

Writing in a New York Times oped last Tuesday, Fusion GPS founders Glenn R. Simpson and Peter Fritch relate that they helped McCain share their anti-Trump dossier with the intelligence community via an “emissary.” (Read more from “Fusion Admits McCain Role in Anti-Trump Dossier” HERE)

Out-of-Control Federal Judge Reverses Trump’s DACA Decision

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A federal judge in California late Tuesday night temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

Known as DACA for short, it protects young immigrants from deportation. In September, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the program would be phased out.

President Obama implemented the program in 2012, and it has protected about 800,000 people who were brought to the United States as children by their families, some of whom overstayed their visas. Under the program, these young adults referred to as “Dreamers” have been permitted to live and work legally in the U.S.

U.S. District Judge William Alsup in San Francisco granted a request by California and other states to keep DACA going, at least until lawsuits can play out in court. (Read more from Federal Judge Reverses Another Trump Decision HERE)

What’s the Cause of Increasing Male Infertility? It’s Not Just Soy…

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Taking ibuprofen could change a man’s testicular function, including decreasing the production of testosterone, according to a study conducted by Danish and French researchers.

The researchers recruited 31 healthy white men ages 18 to 35 ― the prime age for military personnel ― to participate in the study. Fourteen of them received 600 milligrams of ibuprofen twice a day for six weeks; the rest were given a placebo.

The dosage is on the high end of the recommended dosage per day, and the subjects were given the ibuprofen for a period longer than normal for over-the-counter Ibuprofen. . .

In this study, the researchers found that the use of ibuprofen resulted in a clinical condition called “compensated hypogonadism,” which is prevalent among elderly men and is associated with reproductive and physical disorders. The researchers found that the ibuprofen suppresses the endocrine system, affecting certain testicular cells, including testosterone production. (Read more about male infertility causes in US HERE)

Japanese Astronaut Grows a Staggering 3.5 Inches in Space

/0 Comments/in , /by

Japanese astronaut Norishige Kanai said Monday on Twitter that he is 3½ inches taller since arriving at the International Space Station on Dec. 19. Weightlessness has that effect: Without gravitational force compressing the spine, fluid between the discs fluctuates as they temporarily expand, like a coiled spring unspooled from the top.

“Good morning, everyone. Today I share some serious news. Since coming to space, I have grown 9 centimeters. This is the most I’ve grown in 3 weeks since junior high school,” Kanai wrote.

Three and a half inches is a notable height difference. NASA has said about two inches of growth is typical and expected in space.

“Nine centimeters is a lot, but it is possible, knowing that every human body is different,” said Libby Jackson, a program manager for the United Kingdom Space Agency, the BBC reported. . .

“I am a little worried I won’t fit in my seat on the return trip on Soyuz,” Kanai said, though he was probably joking. Polk said the spacesuits and seat liners inside the spacecraft were designed with fluctuating bodies in mind, including expanded spines. He and others are not concerned about Kanai squeezing into the seat, each one fitted with a liner customized for and molded to the body of each astronaut and taken aboard the Soyuz to ensure a tight fit during the violent reintroduction to gravity.

Russian Who Exposed Stalin’s Criminality Now Forced Into Psychological Testing

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Russian historian whose exposure of Soviet leader Josef Stalin’s crimes angered state officials is due to begin enforced psychiatric testing this week amid fears he will be falsely declared insane, his lawyer said on Tuesday.

Yuri Dmitriev, 61, is on trial in northwest Russia on charges brought by state prosecutors of involving his adopted daughter, then 11, in child pornography, of illegally possessing “the main elements of” a firearm, and of depravity involving a minor.

Some of Russia’s leading cultural figures say Dmitriev was framed because his focus on Stalin’s crimes – he found a mass grave with up to 9,000 bodies dating from the Soviet dictator’s Great Terror in the 1930s – jars with the latter-day Kremlin narrative that Russia must not be ashamed of its past. . .

A previous psychiatric evaluation declared him to be of sound mind and a court-sanctioned expert group found no pornographic content in any photos… (Read more about historian forced into psychological testing HERE)

Sheriff Joe Arpaio: I’m Running for U.S. Senate!!!

/0 Comments/in , /by

I have thought long and hard about this decision. And I did not make it without many discussions with my wonderful wife of over sixty years, Ava. And Ava agrees with me. We cannot sit idly by while our nation faces unprecedented challenges. President Trump needs my help in the Senate. He needs a conservative vote he can count on, and a voice in the Senate who knows first hand the threats our nation is dealing with.

And, that’s why I’m running for United States Senate.

As the Sheriff of America’s fourth-most populous county for two decades, I witnessed every day the danger our streets and neighborhoods are facing. As Sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona, my deputies and I locked up violent drug dealers, callous human traffickers, and thousands of criminal gang members that were in this country illegally.

Friend, with many of President Obama’s failed and dangerous policies still in place, our nation is not safe – at least not yet. President Trump is working around the clock to make America great again, but he can’t do this alone – he needs our conservative voice and my vote in Washington.

Compared to when I was growing up in Springfield, Massachusetts as the proud son of Italian immigrants, our country today is barely recognizable. You know exactly what I’m talking about…

*Sanctuary cities like San Francisco are literally refusing to hold illegal immigrants accountable for their actions, just to further their politically correct, pro-Amnesty agenda.

*The once bedrock American commitment to paying our bills has been replaced by over $20 Trillion in national debt.

*The liberal Left attacks the rights of law abiding gun owners — but doesn’t even bat an eye while so-called “doctors” slaughter millions of unborn children in their mother’s womb every single year.

*Millionaire athletes are lionized by the fake news media as “heroes” for disrespecting the American flag and refusing to stand for our national anthem.

Enough is enough. I’m running for Senate because I want America to be great again.

I know this isn’t going to be easy. I know I’ll be attacked by the far left, the establishment right and of course, the liberal media. The media are going to say every nasty thing they can think of and try to break me. But I have never been one to shy away from a fight – and I can’t in good conscience sit back in retirement knowing that my grandchildren will inherit a country worse off than the America I’ve spent my entire life defending.

Friend, I have watched the liberal media try to tear President Trump to shreds… I know firsthand how gutless and ruthless they are. They’ve tried every trick in their liberal book against me, so I know how tough this Senate campaign is going to be.

Unlike my liberal opponent who is sitting on millions in campaign cash, at the end of the day I’m a retired public servant living on a retired public servant’s salary.

Add in the fact that the ACLU, La Raza, and the gaggle of liberal groups that have tried to take me down over the years will no doubt join the fray against me, I truly face an uphill battle.

My announcement today is certain to send a shockwave across Arizona and our country. History is going to be made in 2018, starting with what happens here in Arizona and with my announcement today.
