San Francisco Earns yet Another Disgusting Moniker: Poopville

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Trash bags full of approximately 20 pounds of human poop were left on the sidewalk over the weekend in downtown San Francisco.

It’s the latest — and perhaps most alarming — sign of the increased filthiness of one of the most popular cities in the United States. . .

“Walked by this yesterday without knowing it had been a reported thing,” wrote Reddit user green_street. “Arguably the worst smell I’ve ever encountered. . .

A spokesman for SF311, San Francisco’s non-emergency customer service for governmental affairs, told The San Francisco Chronicle that though human waste found on city sidewalks might be common, this large of an amount is “not typical.” . . .

“I can’t say I’ve seen anything like that,” said tusi2, who has lived in the Tenderloin for two years. “I’ve seen open feces, smeared feces. I commend whoever put it in a bag. (Read more from “San Francisco Earns yet Another Disgusting Moniker: Poopville” HERE)

Elizabeth Warren Responds to Trump’s DNA Test Challenge

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Presidential hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) responded to President Trump’s blistering, off-the-cuff comments at a “Promises Kept” rally in Montana Thursday by turning his DNA test theme to an election year hot topic: the separation of illegal immigrant families.

In a freewheeling rant that had the already raucous crowd rolling, Trump brought up one of his favorite Democrats to mock: “Pocahontas” Warren. In 2020, if he gets to debate Warren, he told the crowd, he “promise[s]” to toss over one of those $2 “Learn Your Heritage” DNA kits if she brings up her much-critiqued claim that she is Native American.

“We have to do it gently because we’re in the Me Too generation, so we have to be very gentle,” he said. “We will very gently take that kit and we will slowly toss it, hoping it doesn’t hit her and injure her arm, even though it only weighs probably 2 oz. And we will say, ‘I will give you a million dollars, paid for by Trump, to your favorite charity if you take the test and it shows you’re an Indian.’ And we’ll see what she does. I have a feeling she will say no, but we will hold it for the debates.”

In response, Warren hit Trump for “obsessing” over her genes and cited reports that the administration is using DNA tests to check claims of illegal immigrants that minors are actually their children after a number of migrants made false claims of parentage in hopes of getting asylum.

Bombshell: Hunt for Seth Rich’s Murderer Turns up Witness

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The convoluted case of the murder in Washington, D.C., of Democratic operative Seth Rich has taken another turn, with a lobbyist who has been investigating the case claiming a “credible” witness has been found.

Jack Burkman, a Washington-based lawyer and lobbyist, told the Gateway Pundit blog: “We believe that we have reached the beginning of the end of the Seth Rich murder investigation. After two long hard years of work, we have a witness who is prepared to identify the two killers of Seth Rich.”

Burkman told the blog in an exclusive interview on Sunday that one of the culprits identified by the witness is an agent for the Drug Enforcement Administration and the other is an agent for the ATF, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. . .

On July 10, 2016, he was fatally shot in the back in Washington, D.C., near his apartment in an affluent neighborhood. Rich had been working for the DNC at a time when emails from the organization were provided to WikiLeaks for publication.

The Metropolitan Police Department and Washington Mayor Muriel Bowers insist Rich was randomly killed during a “botched robbery.” But others are doubtful because he was found with his wallet, credit cards and other valuables.

Man Gives Pathetic Excuse for Stealing Teens MAGA Hat, Throwing Drink in His Face

/0 Comments/in , /by

Unless you believe that political outrage justifies any kind of violence, you probably aren’t the biggest fan of Kino Jimenez right now. He’s the 30-year-old accused of stealing a 16-year-old’s MAGA cap and throwing a drink in his face at a San Antonio Whataburger earlier this week.

Now, of course, there could be plenty of qualifications behind Jimenez’s alleged act. Maybe they have the wrong guy. Or maybe, as a single witness attested to, the incident was brought about because the 16-year-old and his friends were engaging in racist banter. (This report has led to several media outlets backpedaling and nobody seems to be able to corroborate the witness’ story as of Saturday morning, mind you, but it’s out there.)

Well, as it turns out, neither of those is the case — at least according to Jimenez, a man who desperately needs to be listening to his lawyer. On his way out of jail on Friday, Jimenez decided to deliver a de facto confession to KSAT-TV, saying he assaulted the teen because a MAGA hat is equivalent to Klan robes, as far as he’s concerned. . .

Okay, firstly: The right to remain silent doesn’t end once you get out of police custody, Kino. Apparently, your lapse in judgment didn’t just stop at Whataburger.

Secondly, a MAGA hat has the same effect as a Klan hood would have had? Really, now? You realize almost half the voters in the 2016 election voted for the person that hat represents. His approval ratings are also hovering in the neighborhood of 50 percent. (Read more from “Man Gives Pathetic Excuse for Stealing Teens MAGA Hat, Throwing Drink in His Face” HERE)

Dem Congressman Brags About Getting Free Food in Restaurants Due to His Immigration Stance

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Townhall. Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) had a unique take Monday in light of Trump administration officials facing harassment from protestors in restaurants and other public places over President Trump’s immigration policies. Lieu bragged on Twitter that he actually gets free food at restaurants, attributing it to his immigration stance.

There has been a debate recently about the civility of heckling Trump administration officials in public after protestors disrupted Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen’s dinner and White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked to leave a restaurant in Lexington, Virginia because she worked for Trump.

WAPO Columnist Accuses Trump of ‘Fomenting Violence’ Against Journalists

By The Daily Caller. Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin accused President Donald Trump of “fomenting violence” against journalists.

Rubin, a staunch critic of Trump’s, linked the Republican’s past comments about reporters to a shooting in a Maryland newsroom on Thursday that left five journalists dead. That despite evidence suggesting the shooting suspect, Jarrod Warren Ramos, had a long-standing feud with the Capital Gazette over an unfavorable article published about him in 2011.

“We haven’t talked very much about what happened in Annapolis,” Rubin said during a panel discussion on “Real Time with Bill Maher” Friday.

Before Ramos was identified, liberals and some journalists widely speculated the shooter was motivated by Trump’s past comments about journalists. (Read more from “WAPO Columnist Accuses Trump of ‘Fomenting Violence’ Against Journalists” HERE)

Eyeroll: Democratic Senator Makes Idiotic Comparison Between Immigrants and Thai Soccer Team

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) is always someone you can count on to make a completely idiotic remark on matters that really have no connection to politics or history. In other words, they’re all whackjob remarks and the Illinois Democrat wasted no time trying to tie the frenetic rescue mission of the Thai soccer team trapped in caverns to…immigrant families “trapped in a bureaucratic cave.”

In Thailand, 12 members of a soccer team and their coach became trapped in a cavern system that is rapidly flooding due to the monsoon season. They’re about a mile or so underground, it’s pitch black, and the journey to extract them is no picnic either. Some reports say it’s around a 12-hour round trip from the extraction point to the site where rescue crews discovered the boys. One ex-Thai Navy Seal died when he ran out of oxygen. This is not related to our immigration policy, but in comes Durbin with this nonsense on “Meet The Press” over the weekend (via Mediaite):

Before even answering the first question of his Meet the Press interview, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) took a moment to call attention to the soccer team stuck in a flooded Thailand cave, comparing the trapped boys to detained migrants in the U.S.

“Hearts and prayers are with those boys in Thailand, trapped in the cave,” he told NBC’s Chuck Todd. “I hope our hearts and prayers are also with thousands of children, toddlers and infants, removed from their parents by the Trump Administration, under zero tolerance. They’re trapped in a bureaucratic cave, too, so let’s not forget them.”

Folks, this is the Left. They will make you care. Even on things like a rescue mission, they try to attach a political rider. Yes, hope for the best. And so far, eight of the team members have been rescued. Four more, including the coach, remain, so this is good news. But this is just complete and utter nonsense. These kids were in the dark, with limited food and drinking water. Detained children, who are in this position because their parents were caught breaking federal immigration law, are in air conditioned tents, beds, with access to medical treatment, and three meals a day.

Recent Poll Reveals How Much Millennials Really Know About Roe v. Wade

/0 Comments/in , /by

Do millennials know anything about historical atrocities? It was bad enough that only 4 in 10 millennials understood the Holocaust, but now a new poll shows that as many as 57% of millennials know little to nothing about Roe v. Wade, the ghastly SCOTUS decision that made abortion a constitutional right by judicial fiat.

According to a Democratic pollster, millennials do not know what Roe v. Wade is about, or when abortion was legalized, with many believing it happened after the American Revolution, nearly 200 years before it was decided.

The claim is supported by a 2013 study from the Pew Research Center finding that 57% adults aged 18 to 29 had no knowledge that Roe v. Wade legalized abortion. Not only did it legalize abortion, as noted by LifeNews, it turned America into one of the most liberal countries in the world on the issue:

When Roe v. Wade was handed down, many abortion supporters stated that abortion would be “safe, legal, and rare.” That has proved itself to not be the case. Even some abortion advocates say the poorly-written case has no constitutional basis, and its loose language has opened the door to widespread abortions.

Because of Roe and its companion case, Doe v. Bolton, the United States is one of only seven countries in the world that permits elective abortions past 20 weeks — a fact confirmed by the Washington Post fact checker.

President Trump Announces His Historic Nomination for the Supreme Court

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Blaze. President Donald Trump announced Monday evening that he would be nominating Bret Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court, likely changing the character of the highest court for generations to come. . .

Brett Kavanaugh is 53 years old, worked in the solicitor general’s office in the George HW Bush administration, and was a clerk for Justice Anthony Kennedy. He also worked under Kenneth Starr and helped draft the impeachment against former President Bill Clinton. . .

Kavanaugh currently sits on the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, and was appointed to that court by President George W. Bush in 2006. The nomination was approved by a vote of 57-36. . .

Trump had promised to choose Supreme Court nominations from a list comprised with the guidance of the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society, both conservative think tanks.

Democrats have already indicated that they would oppose any nomination by the president. Critics have pointed to what they saw as unfair tactics by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) in stalling on former President Obama’s nomination, Merrick Garland, until after the election.

Trump Taps Federal Appeals Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh for Supreme Court

By NBC News. President Donald Trump on Monday nominated Brett Kavanaugh, a federal appeals court judge in Washington, to succeed Justice Anthony Kennedy on the Supreme Court.

Trump made the announcement shortly after 9 p.m. ET at the White House, where he was joined by Kavanaugh and his family. NBC News broke the story shortly before the president made his choice public.

“What matters is not a judge’s personal views, but whether they can set aside those views to do what the law and the Constitution require,” Trump said in the prime-time announcement from the East Room. “I am pleased to say I have found, without doubt, such a person.”

“It is my my honor to announce that I will nominate that I will nominate Justice Brett Kavanaugh to the United States Supreme Court,” Trump added.

Kavanaugh then emerged, along with his wife, Ashley, and two young daughters. (Read more from “Trump Taps Federal Appeals Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh for Supreme Court” HERE)

Is Hillary Clinton Secretly Planning to Run in 2020?

/0 Comments/in , /by

By NY Post. . .Hillary Clinton is up to something.

Five times in the last month alone, she sent e-mails touting her super PAC’s role in combating President Trump. Most seized on headline events, such as the family-separation issue at the southern border.

Under the message line, “horrific,” she wrote June 18: “This is a moral and humanitarian crisis. Everyone of us who has ever held a child in their arms, and every human being with a sense of compassion and decency should be outraged.” She said she warned about Trump’s immigration policies during the 2016 campaign.

Three days later, she was back again, saying that her group, Onward Together, raised $1 million and would split it among organizations working to change border policy, including the American Civil Liberties Union and a gaggle of immigrant, refugee, Latino and women’s groups.

NY Post: Hillary Secretly Plotting 2020 Rematch Against Trump

By Newsmax. Hillary Clinton is secretly planning a rematch against President Donald Trump in 2020, according to the New York Post’s Michael Goodwin in an op-ed Sunday.

“With the Democratic Party locked in a battle between its far left wing and its far, far left wing, no single leader has emerged to unite it,” Goodwin wrote. “Clinton is trying to play that role by being a mother hen to the fledgling activists drawn to politics by their hatred of Trump.” . . .

“To be clear, there are scenarios where Clinton doesn’t run,” Goodwin wrote. “Health reasons, for example, or a younger rival could rocket to the top of the pack and become the party’s next Barack Obama. Either way, recurring nightmares of two previous defeats would send her back to wandering through the Chappaqua woods. . .

“For now, I am convinced Clinton wants to go for it. Doubters should recall the line about pols who get the presidential itch: There are only two cures — election or death.” (Read more from “NY Post: Hillary Secretly Plotting 2020 Rematch Against Trump” HERE)

Journalistic Independence?! Associated Press Directly Conspired With FBI to Sink Manafort

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Politico. Lawyers for former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort are crying foul over a meeting Justice Department prosecutors held with four Associated Press reporters last year as news organizations and the FBI bore down on the longtime lobbyist and political consultant.

Manafort’s defense has argued for months that the off-the-record session on April 11, 2017, was a potential conduit for improper leaks to the press about the probe that led to two criminal cases against the former Trump campaign chief.

Now, Manafort’s attorneys have fresh evidence they say bolsters their claims: two memos written by FBI agents who attended the meeting and documented their version of what transpired.

Manafort’s legal team paints the evidence as confirmation that journalists were given inside information about the investigation in violation of Justice Department policies and, perhaps, legal prohibitions on disclosure of grand jury secrets.

Mueller’s ‘Pit Bull’ Arranged Meeting With Reporters to Discuss Manafort Investigation

By The Daily Caller. Justice Department documents released on Friday confirm that the DOJ attorney known as Robert Mueller’s “pit bull” arranged a meeting with journalists in April 2017 to discuss an investigation into Paul Manafort.

The documents show that Andrew Weissmann arranged a meeting with DOJ and FBI officials and four Associated Press reporters on April 11, 2017, just over a month before Mueller was appointed special counsel.

Manafort’s lawyers obtained the documents on June 29 and revealed them in a briefing filed in federal court in Virginia. The attorneys are pushing for a hearing into what they say are possible leaks of secret grand jury information, false information and potentially classified materials from the meeting.

“The meeting raises serious concerns about whether a violation of grand jury secrecy occurred,” a lawyer for Manafort, Kevin Downing, wrote in a motion requesting a hearing. “Based on the FBI’s own notes of the meeting, it is beyond question that a hearing is warranted.”

Manafort’s attorneys have for months questioned whether Weissmann, the number two official on the Mueller team, leaked information about Manafort to The AP. At the time of the meeting, Weissmann served as chief of the Justice Department’s criminal fraud section.
