Democrat Politician Chuckles While Discussing News Headline About Illegal Alien Raping Young Girl in NYC (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) faced backlash online on Thursday after she chuckled during a television interview when discussing multiple news chyrons that networks displayed during a Biden immigration speech, one of which from Fox News referred to an illegal alien in New York City who violently raped a young girl late last week.

“There’s a lot of fear mongering,” Jayapal claimed during an MSNBC segment with Joy Reid.

Reid read chyrons that the three major cable news networks had on their screens as Biden held a press conference announcing that he was taking executive action to protect hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens in the U.S. . .

As soon as Reid read the Fox News chyron, Jayapal chuckled, “Ah, yes!” She added that she believes Fox News was fear mongering — even though the violent attack did happen and garnered national headlines.

Trump’s Legal Team Pushes to Have Judge Arthur Engoron Thrown Off Civil Trial After New Development

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Former President Donald Trump’s legal team filed documents in court on Thursday seeking to have Judge Arthur Engoron thrown off the civil fraud case against Trump in New York after they discovered that he allegedly engaged in “prohibited communications” with an outside party about the case.

Trump’s lawyers are trying to get Engoron tossed off the case as they appeal his highly controversial ruling that Trump was guilty and needed to pay nearly half a billion dollars to the state.

In the court documents, Trump’s lawyers cited an interview that real estate lawyer Adam Bailey gave with a local NBC News affiliate in New York in which he claimed that he spoke to Engoron during the trial at the courthouse where it was taking place.

“I actually had the ability to speak to him three weeks ago,” Bailey said during the interview back in February, according to documents filed by Trump’s lawyers. “I saw him in the corner [at the courthouse] and I told my client, ‘I need to go.’ And I walked over and we started talking … I wanted him to know what I think and why…I really want him to get it right.” (Read more from “Trump’s Legal Team Pushes to Have Judge Arthur Engoron Thrown Off Civil Trial After New Development” HERE)

Today’s String of Supreme Court Decisions Blew Up Another Liberal Narrative (Again)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Supreme Court has not yet decided on the presidential immunity case involving former President Donald Trump, which could wreck the pending trials from Special Counsel Jack Smith on January 6 and classified document indictments. At the same time, the string of decisions today did unravel another trite liberal talking regarding our third branch of government: it’s a rogue, right-wing machine that’s out to destroy America.

The three decisions today obliterated that narrative. There were no 5-4 decisions, and some concurring and dissenting opinions were—wait for it—made up of diverse company. Law professor Jonathan Turley had a lengthy Twitter thread about today’s rulings:

..We have the first case. It is Moore!

…Another shattering of the narrative of a hopelessly ideologically divided court. 7-2 decision. This is the tax case that I thought we might get today. It addresses the scope of the taxation powers.

…Court rules that taxpayers who own shares in foreign corporations can be constitutionally required to pay a one-time tax on their share of the corporation’s earnings…In his dissent, Thomas notes that the Court avoided the “wealth tax” issue with a biting couple lines: “Even as the majority admits to reasoning from fiscal consequences, it apparently believes that a generous application of dicta will guard against unconstitutional taxes in the future. The majority’s analysis begins with a list of nonexistent taxes that the Court does not today bless, including a wealth tax.”…

[…]

..We have the second opinion. It is CHIAVERINI ET AL. v. CITY OF NAPOLEON, OHIO, ET, a Fourth Amendment malicious prosecution case.

…This is a Justice Kagan decision that holds “the presence of probable cause for one charge in a criminal proceeding does not categorically defeat a Fourth Amendment malicious prosecution claim relating to another, baseless charge.”…

…Once again, the critics of the Supreme Court will be disappointed with the diverse majority of Roberts, Sotomayor, Kavanaugh, and Barrett joining Kagan in the 6-3 decision…

…We have the third decision. It is Diaz v. US and authored by Thomas. Justice Gorsuch joins Sotomayor and Kagan in dissent.

The court holds that an expert testifying about how ‘most people” have a particular mental state is not an opinion about the defendant and therefore does not violate federal evidentiary rules.

Police: Two Venezuelan Men Charged With Murder of 12-Year-Old

/0 Comments/in , /by

Two men, initially from Venezuela, are accused of strangling and raping 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray and leaving her for dead in a Houston, Texas, creek.

Johan Jose Rangel Martinez, 21 years old, and Franklin Jose Pena Ramos, 26 years old, were arrested and charged with capital murder on Thursday by the Houston Police Department in connection to the strangulation death of Jocelyn Nungaray.

Martinez and Ramos, police officials confirmed at a news conference, are initially from Venezuela, though questions about when and how they first arrived in the United States were referred to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

On the night of June 16, Jocelyn snuck out of her apartment building after her mother went to sleep. Jocelyn’s boyfriend is the last person to have spoken to the girl. Shortly after midnight, Jocelyn can be seen on surveillance cameras at a 7/11 convenience store alongside Martinez and Ramos.

Police officials said Jocelyn, Martinez, and Ramos ended up at a nearby bridge after leaving the 7/11 convenience store. Between 1:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m., police allege that Martinez and Ramos strangled Jocelyn to death, raped her, and left her body in a creek at the bridge.

A transgender suspect who allegedly shot and killed his parents in Washington, Utah, Tuesday was captured Wednesday and has been charged with numerous felonies.

ABC 4 noted that the shooting suspect, originally named Collin Troy Bailey, now goes by Mia Bailey, and is “a transgender male transitioning to female.” . . .

‘Changes Our Entire Understanding’: Researchers Discover Oldest Known Deep-Sea Cargo Ship

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) tweeted Thursday that a company found a cargo ship dating back 3,300 years deep at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea.

The ship still contained “hundreds of intact jars,” the IAA said in Hebrew, while sharing a photo of two of the preserved jars.

The IAA said that the discovery overturned the belief that Late Bronze Age seafarers could not navigate their ship without sight of the shore, The Times of Israel reported.

“Only two other shipwrecks with cargo are known from the Late Bronze Age in the Mediterranean Sea … both found off the Turkish coast. Yet both of those shipwrecks were found relatively close to shore,” Jacob Sharvit, head of IAA, said, the outlet reported. . .

The ship was discovered as a result of natural gas company Energean’s standard survey of the Eastern Mediterranean floor in Israeli waters, the outlet reported. The survey discovered what appeared to be large piles of jars littering the seabed and led to the company alerting IAA about their finds, The Times of Israel reported.

Biden’s Public Decline Tests Limits Of White House Spin Operation

/0 Comments/in , /by

White House communications officials have been forced to spend more and more time doing damage control as election season heats up due to President Biden’s increasing frequency of senior moments.

In the month of June, several clips, interviews and stories about the president have garnered attention for highlighting the 81-year-old’s fitness and gaffes. The White House has rushed to spin each of the incidents, most recently calling the clipped videos of the president freezing and wandering off “cheap-fakes” and a product of right-wing hucksters. . .

While the videos are the most recent example of the White House’s attempt to spin concerns about Biden’s fitness, other attempts came in the weeks prior over a Wall Street Journal article and an interview with Time Magazine.

The recent videos were clipped by various twitter accounts and media outlets as they streamed live, but the White House claimed the clips were distorted, cropped or taken out of context to misrepresent the president’s actions.

“It was a cheap — you know, a cheap fake. That was definitely a cheap fake. It was. This was widely fact-checked. That video was widely fact-checked, including by conservative media, on — on what had — what happened that — what occurred,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said about the clip of the president at the G7, which the New York Post twitter account cropped, as it appears they usually do.

Sword-Wielding Chinese Soldiers Seize Filipino Ship in Its Own Waters, Forcing Bare-Handed Brawl

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Chinese Communist regime admitted on Wednesday that it used force to board Filipino ships and force them out of the Philippines’ territorial waters, an act of piracy the Chinese touted as a “police action” because the Filipinos entered an area illegally claimed by China.

The Philippine military said its forces used their “bare hands” to fend off Chinese “barbarians” and demanded China pay damages for its conduct during the incident.

The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) posted video and photos of the encounter on Wednesday night, showing Chinese personnel attacking their rigid-hulled inflatable boats (RHIBs) with knives, axes, and poles.

Title: Trump Leads Biden by Double Digits Among New York Independents, Poll Finds

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a surprising twist for the traditionally blue state of New York, former President Donald Trump has surged ahead of President Joe Biden among independent voters by double digits, according to the latest Siena College survey. This development underscores a shifting political landscape as the 2024 election approaches.

The Siena College survey, conducted from June 12-17, 2024, among 805 registered voters, reveals Biden struggling with a net negative approval rating. Only 42 percent of New Yorkers favor Biden, while a majority of 53 percent view him unfavorably, yielding a net negative rating of -11 percent. This marks a notable decline from May, when Biden’s net unfavorable rating was -5 percent, with 45 percent viewing him favorably against 50 percent unfavorably.

“His job approval rating fell to 45-53%, down slightly from 46-51% last month,” the Siena College report stated. Former President Trump’s favorability rating also took a hit, dropping to 37-59% from 39-56% in May.

Despite Biden leading Trump overall in New York by eight percentage points (47 percent to Trump’s 39 percent), this margin has been shrinking steadily over recent months. In May, Biden led by nine points, and in April, by ten points.

However, the most striking revelation from the survey is Trump’s substantial lead among independents. Trump holds a 17-point advantage over Biden among this crucial voter group, with 45 percent of independents supporting Trump compared to 28 percent backing Biden.

Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg noted the significance of these findings: “While Biden maintains the support of three-quarters of Democrats, Trump has support from 85% of Republicans and leads Biden 45-28 percent with independents.”

The poll also highlights a pronounced gender gap, with men favoring Trump 46-42 percent and women supporting Biden 51-33 percent. White voters are evenly split, while Biden holds a commanding lead among non-white voters. Despite this, Trump has made notable inroads, garnering support from 29 percent of Black voters and 26 percent of Latino voters.

This poll follows Trump’s recent high-profile rallies, including one in neighboring New Jersey that drew over 100,000 attendees, and another historic event in the Bronx. At the Bronx rally, enthusiastic chants of “We love Trump!” and “Four more years!” resonated, signaling potential trouble for Democrats in the upcoming election.

Kamala Harris Faces Backlash For Promoting Disgusting Queer Eye’s Cast at White House

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Joe Biden promised to “restore honor and decency to the White House,” yet his administration never misses an opportunity to promote decadent behavior.

On Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris posted a video on X featuring the cast of Queer Eye, including Emmy Award-winning television personality Jonathan Van Ness, who likes to walk around in women’s gowns while sporting a full beard.

“Thank you for a meaningful conversation, for giving my office your stamp of approval, and for being fabulous,” the vice president said while sharing a clip of the cast visiting her in the White House.

It’s almost as if the Biden regime is openly punking the American people, as they continue to shove their troubling values down our throats at every opportunity.

The visit comes as the transgender activist who flashed his surgically implanted fake boobs on the White House lawn is being accused of sexually assaulting multiple victims. The man calls himself Rose Montoya, and he made headlines last year by exposing himself at a Pride event after taking a photo with President Biden.
