New York City Cop Killer Poured out Police Hate in Facebook Video

/0 Comments/in , /by

The man who allegedly killed a New York City police officer early Wednesday poured out his hatred of police officers in a Facebook Live video posted in September.

Alexander Bonds, 34, was the suspect in the killing of NYPD Officer Miosotis Familia, 48, who was shot in the head early Wednesday as she sat in her vehicle. Bonds was later killed by police.

The profane video shows Bonds seething with hatred for law enforcement officers.

“I’m here to tell you I’m so mad as f–k,” Bonds said in the video.

“Police is f—-ts and this isn’t no gimmick … Don’t think every brother, cousin, uncle you got that gets killed in jail is because of a Blood or Crip be killing them, no it’s because police be killing them,” Bonds said.

Bonds, who also went by the name John Bonds, was released from jail on parole in 2013 after serving about seven years of his sentence for a 2005 robbery in Syracuse, N.Y.

Prior to that conviction, records show he was sentenced to prison after a 2004 conviction for selling a controlled substance near a school. He had been accused of besting up a police officer in 2001, using brass knuckles. The disposition of that case was not available Wednesday.

Bonds used the video to brag about his time in prison and his toughness.

“I wasn’t a b–h in jail and I’m not gonna be a b–h in these streets. They don’t f–k with me and I don’t f–k with them,” he said.

The video dripped with defiance of the police.

“I don’t care about one hundred police watching this s–t. You see this face or anything then leave it alone trust and believe. I got broken ribs for a reason son. We’re gonna shake. We doing something,” he said.

He ended his video with a declaration that appears as a warning in light of the shooting.

“N—-s ain’t taking it no more, Mr. Officer. I’m here to tell you man. … just keep your a– away from mine.”

Patrick J. Lynch, the head of the NYPD Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association, expressed his union’s outrage.

“This kind of violence against police officers cannot stand,” he said. “We need the public’s help. When you see someone that’s making threats, doing something against police officers, you need to let us know. You need to be our eyes and ears. We also have to remember the hundreds of police officers that are here now with their heads bowed in sorrow.” (For more from the author of “New York City Cop Killer Poured out Police Hate in Facebook Video” please click HERE)

Loser Federal Employee Quits Trump Admin ‘Because the People in Charge Want to Burn It Down’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A former employee of a federal agency announced Wednesday that the reason for his recent departure was mainly due to his belief that the Trump administration is essentially “burning down” the government.

Noah Kunin originally felt compelled to write following the 2016 presidential election that he was staying on as an engineer for 18F, an agency that is modeled after a startup and operates within the federal government’s General Services Administration (GSA). But roughly eight months later (and six months into President Donald Trump’s tenure) he changed his mind, citing his discomfort with Trump’s conduct.

Specifically, Kunin cited two events as the tipping points.

First was the pre-release of former FBI Director James Comey’s written remarks before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence . . .

The last straw for Kunin was that 18F — along with another larger service he helped create and its sibling organizations — is being reconfigured. He says that, to fully explain the whole ordeal, he would have to write a very lengthy “analytical piece.” Nevertheless, his primary grievance is that the commissioner of a particular agency soon to be higher up on the organizational hierarchy will “become a political position, with a person appointed directly by the White House” (emphasis his).

Someone Sent Rachel Maddow Fake NSA Documents Alleging Trump-Russia Collusion

/0 Comments/in , /by

MSNBC host Rachel Maddow gave a “heads up” to other news organizations on Thursday after she was sent what she believes are faked National Security Agency documents alleging collusion between a member of the Trump campaign and Russian government.

“Somebody, for some reason, appears to be shopping a fairly convincing fake NSA document that purports to directly implicate somebody from the Trump campaign in working with the Russians in their attack in the election,” Maddow said in a lengthy segment on her show.

She suggested that the unidentified muckraker who sent her the fake documents hopes to undermine news organizations in general and deflate the Trump-Russia collusion investigation, which has been going on for nearly a year.

“This is news, because: why is someone shopping a forged document of this kind to news organizations covering the Trump-Russia affair?” Maddow asked.

On June 7, an unidentified person sent documents to an online tip line for Maddow’s show, she said. (Read more from “Someone Sent Rachel Maddow Fake NSA Documents Alleging Trump-Russia Collusion” HERE)

Elizabeth Warner’s Challenger Sends Her a DNA Test

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Amber Athey. Shiva Ayyadurai, who is challenging Elizabeth Warren for her Massachusetts Senate seat, recently sent the Democrat a DNA kit to test her heritage.

Warren has been accused of fabricating her Native American heritage in order to gain career advantages through affirmative action. Donald Trump has capitalized on this accusation by referring to Warren as “Pocahontas.”

According to his tweet, Ayyadurai tried to send Warren a DNA kit to prove that she’s actually Native American but she refused his offer. Ayyadurai called her a “Fake Indian.” (Read more from “Elizabeth Warner’s Challenger Sends Her a DNA Test” HERE)

Shiva Ayyadurai, the Man Who Invented Email, Seeks to Unseat Senator Elizabeth Warren in 2018

By Adelle Nazarian. Shiva Ayyadurai, the man who is credited with inventing email among several other life-improving creations such as EchoMail, Systems Health, and CytoSolve, has announced that he is challenging Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) for her seat in the 2018 elections.

“I consider myself an embodiment of the American dream: an all-American Indian,” Ayyadurai told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview shortly after he launched his campaign.

He went on to say, “Massachusetts ignited the American Revolution. Now, we need to fight for the American dream. That victory will only be possible if we dialogue and educate each other to solve problems, together, as Americans.”

Ayyadurai landed in America on his 7th birthday in 1970. At age 14, while working as a Research Fellow at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) in Newark, NJ, he created the first electronic system that replicated the old- fashioned paper-based interoffice mail system (inbox, outbox, folders, address book, attachments, etc.), which he named “email.” (Read more from “Shiva Ayyadurai, the Man Who Invented Email, Seeks to Unseat Senator Elizabeth Warren in 2018” HERE)

‘None of This Happened’: White House, Pentagon Call Trump ISIS Story Into Question

/0 Comments/in , /by

The White House did not ask defense officials to help come up with ideas to brand the Trump administration’s anti-ISIS efforts differently from the Obama administration, Senior Pentagon and White House officials told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

“The White House has asked defense officials to come up with new ideas to help brand the Trump campaign as different from its predecessor,” The Daily Beast reported Wednesday, citing two defense officials and a senior administration official.

“None of this happened,” a senior White House official told TheDCNF, vehemently denying the report.

“I’m not familiar with any such effort,” Pentagon Spokesman Navy Capt. Jeff Davis similarly told TheDCNF. The senior White House official further corroborated Davis’ denial, referencing discussions with National Security Council officials.

Ohio Muslim Plotted U.S. Attack After Training in Syria

/0 Comments/in , /by

An Ohio Muslim who pleaded guilty to plotting a “big” terrorist attack in the United States after receiving training from jihadists in Syria was found to have lied to the FBI.

The public release of the plea deal came Thursday as President Trump’s executive order temporarily banning travelers from Syria and five other terror hot spots went into effect.

A federal grand jury charged Abdirahman Sheik Mohamud with providing material support to terrorists, providing support to a designated terrorist organization and lying to the FBI about international terrorism.

His lack of cooperation with the FBI is a salient point, says Jihad Watch Director Robert Spencer, because the leading Islamic civil rights organization, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, urges Muslims in the U.S. not to answer the bureau’s questions if interviewed regarding terrorist activity.

The Somalia-born Muhamud went to Syria, where according to the charge sheet, he was instructed by the jihadist group al-Nusrah to return to the United States and commit an act of terror. (Read more from “Ohio Muslim Plotted U.S. Attack After Training in Syria” HERE)

Nixing Pro-Life License Plates — and Funding for Suicide Prevention

/0 Comments/in , /by

When Michigan’s Republican governor, Rick Snyder, first ran for elected office in 2010, he professed that he was “firmly pro-life” and had “a strong belief in the value of human life.” But on Friday, with his second and final term in office in sight (because of term limits), the supposedly pro-life governor did something inexcusable: He vetoed a bill authorizing a “choose life” license plate.

The bill, SB-163, passed both houses of the Michigan legislature with strong support and is so mainstream that 30 states and the District of Columbia already offer “choose life” plates — including (besides D.C.) the liberal bastions Massachusetts, Delaware, Connecticut, and Hawaii. But unlike the choose-life license plates available elsewhere, the Michigan plate would be the first to fund suicide-prevention efforts in addition to assisting women facing crisis pregnancies.

Given his earlier claims of being pro-life, and likely anticipating the backlash over his veto, Governor Snyder penned a letter explaining his rationale. His justification is just as indefensible as his veto. Here’s what he wrote:

In 2015, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that when a state issues a specialty license plate, the state itself is speaking. And as a speaker, it is free to choose its message. . . . The “Choose Life” license plate is a political message that has the potential to bitterly divide millions of Michiganders and that, in my view, is not appropriate for a state-issued license plate.

This US City Won’t Let Students Graduate Until the Government Approves Their Plans

/0 Comments/in , /by

Beginning in 2020, Chicago high-school seniors will have to prove that they have a government-approved post-graduation plan in order to earn their diplomas.

Yep. Rather than allow its young people the freedom to approach their futures creatively, Chicago will force its students to choose from one of just five government-approved options: College attendance (note: verbal vows of attendance are not enough, students will need to present actual acceptance letters), a gap-year program, military service, a trade apprenticeship, or a job. According to Reason, the official description of the demand claims that the city is trying to raise $1 million for career-counseling efforts to help students make their decision.

Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel told the Washington Post that the aim of this new policy is “to help kids have a plan, because they’re going to need it to succeed.”

So — is Mayor Emanuel right? Is it better to have your next steps planned out before you graduate high school? The answer: It doesn’t matter, because it’s none of his f*&#@&$ business.

Perhaps this policy is well-intentioned, but do you know what? I don’t care, because it’s still an absurd government overreach that has absolutely no place in a free society. It might be true that more young people would have better lives if only they’d start planning for them before graduation, but that still doesn’t change the fact that it’s not the government’s role to force them to do so.

Police Officer Deaths on Duty Have Jumped Nearly 20 Percent in 2017

/0 Comments/in , /by

The ambush shooting that killed a New York City police officer in the Bronx marked the latest in a growing number of officer deaths in 2017, up 18 percent from this time last year.

A total of 67 officers have died so far this year, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. It found there were 57 officer deaths between January 1 and July 5, 2016. In addition, gun-related deaths have risen by 9 percent, from 22 to 24 for 2017, the researchers say.

The figures suggest a grim trend; 2016 was the deadliest year for police in 5 years. A total of 135 officers died last year.

New York Police Department Officer Miosotis Familia was “assassinated” during an “unprovoked attack,” according to NYPD commissioner James O’Neill. Familia was sitting in her marked vehicle early Wednesday when a man shot at her through the window.

Randy Sutton, national spokesman for Blue Lives Matter and a retired Las Vegas police lieutenant, said that Familia’s killing is a symptom of the growing violence against law enforcement. (Read more from “Police Officer Deaths on Duty Have Jumped Nearly 20 Percent in 2017” HERE)
