WATCH: Dem Confuses AR-15 for 10 Moving Boxes and a Heavy Machine Gun

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .Introducing her new gun control legislation, Congresscritter Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) proved conclusively that she’s just too uninformed to go anywhere near the subject. She claims to have “held an AR-15 in my hand,” which weighed as much as “10 boxes that you might be moving.” She also claimed the rifle fired a .50 caliber round, and that “these kinds of bullets need to be licensed and do not need to be on the street.”

If Lee wants to ban 90-pound .50 caliber AR-15s, I say, “Why not?” While she’s at it, Lee could put a ban on flying cars, unicorns, and doing seven impossible things before breakfast. If Lee wants to get heavy .50 machine guns off the streets, well, first she’s going to have to get some on the streets.

Here’s Jason Howerton again to show you the difference between the .223 rounds fired by most AR-15s and an actual .50 caliber machine-gun round. Lee’s claim is a lot like mistaking a Cadillac Fleetwood 75 for a Smart Fortwo.

My AR-15 weighs about 7.5 pounds unloaded, and a bit more with a 10- or 30-round magazine filled with common .223 rounds. Or rather I should say it did, before I lost it and my banned 30-round magazines in a tragic fishing accident shortly before Colorado’s 30-round magazine ban went into effect. Other popular AR-15 attachments and modifications include scopes, laser designators, the chainsaw bayonet, and of course under-barrel landshark launcher. But even a fully-loaded and heavily modified AR-15 isn’t going to weigh anything near the same as ten moving boxes.

Dozens Arrested in Climate Change Protests — and Activists Put on Quite a Spectacle (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

More than 30 activists were arrested during climate change demonstrations across the District of Columbia on Monday, and while they did gain some attention, it might not have been the kind they were looking for. . .

WTTG-TV reported that 32 people were picked up by police with arrests happening throughout the day, as protestors shut down several roads and highways dancing in the street and carrying signs protesting capitalism while demanding action on the “climate emergency.”

One activist raised eyebrows across the Twittersphere, as footage of him dancing while confetti was being thrown liberally caused critics on both sides of the political aisle to point out the irony of littering at an environmental demonstration.

Watch: Toddler Miraculously Survives After Her Father Jumps in Front of Train With Her

/0 Comments/in , /by

Commuters at a subway station in the Bronx Monday morning watched in horror as a man holding his 5-year-old daughter leapt in front of an oncoming subway train in an apparent suicide attempt. In a remarkable moment caught on video, two of the witnesses who had leapt down from the platform onto the tracks after the train came to a stop found that the little girl had miraculously survived.

“Dramatic video shows a little girl crawling out from underneath a subway train in the Bronx while commuters looked on in fear,” ABC 7 New York reported Monday along with cell phone footage of the rescue of the girl. “Her father jumped in front of the train while he held her in his arms. He did not survive, but she is going to be OK.”

The apparently suicidal man, 45, was wearing a backpack and holding his 5-year-old daughter in his arms when he jumped in front of the oncoming southbound No. 4 train at the elevated Kingsbridge Road station in the Kingsbridge Height section at around 8 a.m. Monday morning.

The action, witnesses say, appears to have been deliberate. While the man tragically died, the little girl sustained only minor injuries.

As the cell phone footage of her rescue shows, two citizen rescuers got down onto the tracks and worked to extricate the girl from underneath the train. When the rescuers pick her up and place her on the platform above, she is able to stand up and appears to be able to communicate with the stunned witnesses on the platform, who quickly encircle her, some raising their hands in relief.

WATCH: Biden Asked to Make His Case for President – Here’s His Ridiculous Response

/0 Comments/in , /by

Speaking in Iowa, former Vice President Joe Biden was confronted by a reporter who wanted to know why Iowans, with their current low unemployment rate, should shift from voting strongly for President Trump in 2016 to voting for Biden in 2020. When she asked Biden to make his case for why he should be elected, he answered, “I’m not going to.” . . .

It would definitely be difficult for Biden to make his case to Iowans; not only is the current unemployment rate in Iowa 2.5% as opposed to 3.9% across the nation, but there are other signs the economy of the state is flourishing. RadioIowa reported on Monday that the Iowa Economic Development Authority approved incentives for three businesses that have promised to create 150 new jobs. Cargill was awarded tax benefits for a $125 million expansion of its Eddyville plant and is expected to create 17 new jobs paying upward of $17 an hour; Hormel won tax benefits as it plans to move jobs from Nebraska to Dubuque, creating 58 new jobs paying over $23 an hour; Upper Iowa Beef won tax benefits allowing the company to create 75 additional jobs at roughly $22 an hour.

U.S. Navy Confirms: UFO Footage Is Real, and Were Never Meant to Be Seen by the Public (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A U.S. Navy spokesman confirmed in a statement to the website, The Black Vault, that videos of unidentified flying objects captured over the years and recently published in the media are authentic.

The videos were published in 2017 and 2018 by the New York Times, and show unusual flying crafts moving at high speeds thousands of feet in the air despite not having any apparent wings or visible engines, and not giving off any signs of propulsion like a traditional aircraft might.

In the videos, the pilots are heard confusedly speculating on what the aircrafts might be and expressing shock at how they move. Despite the earliest of these sightings in restricted military airspace having occurred in 2004, the objects still have not been identified. . .

“The Navy designates the objects contained in these videos as unidentified aerial phenomena,” said Joseph Gradisher, official spokesman for the deputy chief of naval operations for information warfare. “The ‘Unidentified Aerial Phenomena’ terminology is used because it provides the basic descriptor for the sightings/observations of unauthorized/unidentified aircraft/objects that have been observed entering/operating in the airspace of various military-controlled training ranges.”

Both the Pentagon and the Navy have confirmed that the videos were never cleared for public release. (Read more from “U.S. Navy Confirms: UFO Footage Is Real, and Were Never Meant to Be Seen by the Public” HERE)

Protesters at the Climate Strike in Washington, D.C., came out to demonstrate against climate change they say is melting the ice caps, and a guest straight from the arctic — or, maybe the Bronx? — showed up to see if he could find any support.

WATCH: Biden Freaks out on Fox News Reporter; “Biden’s Campaign Likely Coming to an End”

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Townhall. During Saturday’s Steak Fry at the Iowa State Fair, former Vice President Joe Biden snapped at Fox News’ Peter Doocy for not “asking the right question.”

The Fox News reporter asked Biden about a whistleblower’s claims that President Donald Trump repeatedly pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate Hunter Biden, who sits on the board of directors of a Ukrainian gas company. The claims came from a whistleblower[.]. . .

“Trump is doing this because he knows I’ll beat him like a drum and he’s using the abuses of power and every element of the presidency to try and smear me. Everybody’s looked at it and said nothing is there,” Biden told other reporters and cameras.

“Ask the right question,” Biden told Doocy.

Biden’s campaign likely coming to an end — thanks to Clinton-linked Ukraine bombshell, Nunes says

By Fox News. California Rep. Devin Nunes predicted on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” that Joe Biden’s campaign is likely coming to an end — all because of newly resurfaced reports about his possible misconduct in Ukraine that “first originated back when Hillary Clinton was trying to make sure Biden didn’t get in the race.”

The top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee made the claim as The Des Moines Register/CNN/Mediacom poll showed Sen. Elizabeth Warren surging ahead of Biden as the first choice of 22 percent of the voters surveyed, while Biden was the first choice of 20 percent of the voters. Biden held a 9-point lead over Warren in the poll as recently as June.

Nunes, speaking to anchor Maria Bartiromo, said a whistleblower’s allegation that President Trump had acted inappropriately during a July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will ultimately backfire, and shine a light on Biden’s own possible misconduct. CNN later acknowledged that the whistleblower had no first-hand knowledge of the call, and a top Ukrainian official on Saturday defended Trump’s actions.

“These stories first originated back when Hillary Clinton was trying to make sure Biden didn’t get in the race,” Nunes said. “So now that these have been resurrected, I don’t know who came up with the scheme — maybe this whistleblower really is not a partisan. We want to hear from that whistleblower, but it sure looks like the scheme has backfired. And, like I said, it looks like this is the end of Biden’s campaign. I really do… his lead is basically down to zero.” (Read more from “Biden’s campaign likely coming to an end — thanks to Clinton-linked Ukraine bombshell, Nunes says” HERE)

WATCH: Mom Rips Beto to His Face Over Gun Confiscation Plan

/0 Comments/in , /by

Lauren Boebert, owner of Shooters Grill, blasted Democrat presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke to his face on Thursday over his extreme plan to confiscate semi-automatic firearms, telling him: “Hell no, you’re not!”

“Gun-owning Americans who heard your speech and heard what you had to say regarding ‘Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15s and AK-47s’ — Well, I am here to say, ‘Hell no, you’re not,'” Boebert, who has several children, told O’Rourke.

Many of O’Rourke’s supporters were so rude to Boebert that O’Rourke had to step in and tell them to knock it off and to let her speak. . .

“We all have these stories. We all have these experiences. I was living in Aurora during Columbine. I had just recently moved when the Aurora shootings happened. Yet I have very close ties here. Yet all of those people were there defenseless,” Boebert continued. “They had no way to defend themselves against a crazed shooter, so I want to know how you intend to legislate the hearts of men and leave American citizens like myself, American mothers. I have four children. I’m 5 foot zero, one hundred pounds, cannot really defend myself with a fist.” . . .

At the event, O’Rourke signaled that he was open to becoming even more extreme on his gun confiscation program as he was open to the idea of banning and confiscating all semi-automatic firearms, which comprise the overwhelming majority of the estimated 393 million firearms owned by Americans[.] (Read more from “Mom Rips Beto to His Face Over Gun Confiscation Plan” HERE)

WATCH: Extremists Attack Pro-Life Activists, Brag Cops Won’t Help Them

/0 Comments/in , /by

In videos first posted by LifeNews, female pro-life sidewalk counselors and activists are seen harassed and forcibly pushed around by pro-abortion activists outside an abortion clinic in Bristol, Tennessee.

Holding a sign with an image of an aborted baby, a pro-life woman is confronted by a pro-abortion activist who repeatedly pushes against the woman’s sign and brags that the cops will not help her. Another activist ridiculed a pro-life woman who was offering to adopt children who are spared by abortion; the pro-abort called the pro-lifer a “childless b****” and told her that she’ll “never” have a baby in her empty womb.

“Stop pushing on my sign,” the pro-lifer tells the abortion activist in a video provided to LifeNews by A Cause for Christ president Sammi Cooper. The incident took place in August.

The pro-abort taunts the woman for being powerless against the harassment and intimidation, daring her to call the cops. “You know what they’ll do? Nothing,” she boasts.

The harassment of pro-life activists outside the abortion facility, according to provided video footage, appears to be persistent since at least August. A Cause for Christ activist Erika Schanzenbach told LifeNews the organization has witnessed “increasingly nasty behavior from the pro-abortion protesters in the past few months.”

WATCH: Here’s Why Beto Claims People Will Be ‘Compelled’ to Turn in Their Guns

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Democratic presidential candidate told reporters he would impose a fine on AR-15 owners to “compel” them to follow the law and turn in their banned firearms. Owners who turn in the guns will then be compensated.

“We expect our fellow Americans to follow the law. If they do not, there would be a fine imposed to compel them to follow the law,” O’Rourke said. “We’ve seen this implemented successfully in Australia, where you’ve seen a near 50% reduction in gun violence deaths in that country.”

O’Rourke has maintained he believes gun owners would follow the law and turn in the banned weapons because he said gun owners have come up to him on the campaign trail to say they would. He has also defended the proposal as constitutional. (Read more from “Watch: Here’s Why Beto Claims People Will Be ‘Compelled’ to Turn in Their Guns” HERE)
