Well, look at what we have here. From NTK Network, a flashback from the Clarence Thomas hearings, who also face allegations of sexual misconduct from Anita Hill. Thomas was eventually confirmed, but by a razor thin margin. There was an FBI report, but then-Senate Committee chair Joe Biden (D-DE) said it was worthless to cite. Why?
“FBI explicitly does not, in this or any other case, reach a conclusion, period. Period,” said Biden at the time.
“The reason why we cannot rely on the FBI report—you would not like it if we did—because it is inconclusive. They say, ‘He said, she said, and they said. Period,” he added.
In this current Supreme Court fight, Christine Blasey Ford and Deborah Ramirez have lobbed allegations against President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Brett Kavanaugh. Ford alleges a drunken 17-year-old Kavanaugh tried to sexually assault her at a high school party, while Ramirez alleges he exposed himself at a party at Yale. Both cases lack evidence. And by lack, I mean there is none. It’s unprovable. Witnesses in both cases also refute the accuser’s story. Ford can’t remember how she got to this particular house party, who planned it, or who owned the house. For Ramirez, her story is so shoddy that The New York Timesdidn’t do a deep-dive because they couldn’t confirm anything.

Former President Barack Obama took a moment during a Friday rally in Philadelphia to deliver a stern rebuke for some of the young people in the audience.
“I’m talking to you, young people!” Obama snapped as he pointed into the crowd, where he said some young people were paying more attention to their phones than they were to him.
“You! Pay attention!” he yelled.
According to a scorecard kept by The American Mirror, part of what the young people might have been missing was Obama talking about himself.
The site reported that Obama “said ‘I’ 56 times, ‘Me’ 5 times, and ‘My’ 4 times, talking about himself a total of 65 times, or once about every 30 seconds.”
Obama also had harsh words for voters who fail to do as he directs and vote for the Democrats he supports, CBS reported.
“But, some people may not have heard the news yet. So I’m heard to deliver it. This November’s election is more important than any I can remember in my lifetime,” he said.
Obama admitted that politicians always say the upcoming election is crucial.
“This time, the stakes really are higher,” added. “The consequences of any of us sitting on the sidelines are far more dangerous.”
Obama went on to play the gender card.
“Pennsylvania’s a great state, but let me just say Pennsylvania right now, you have no women in Congress. You can send seven Democratic women to Washington if you vote! And I will tell you — and Michelle didn’t put me up to this — stuff works better when women are involved,” Obama said.
During his speech, Obama said voters needed to ensure that the White House would face opposition in the years to come.
“The Republicans in Congress right now … they’re no check on the White House. They’re bending over backwards to shield … folks from scrutiny and accountability,” he said, according to Fox News. “So look, I’m not telling you anything you don’t know. You know this. Here’s the good news. On Nov. 6, you have a chance to restore some sanity to our politics.”
Obama did not mention President Donald Trump by name, but said all Americans “should be concerned about the current course of this country.”
In response, Republicans pointed out that during Obama’s presidency, America’s economy — and its citizens — suffered greatly.
“On President Obama’s watch, we had our slowest economic recovery since World War II and Democrats lost more than 1,000 seats,” said Michael Ahrens, a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, according to the Daily News.

. . .Case in point: Paul Gosar couldn’t have been too thrilled when six of his siblings came out with an advertisement urging Arizonans to vote against him.
Gosar, a staunch conservative and Republican congressman seeking re-election in Arizona, was hit with a scathing political ad from his opponent, Democrat David Brill.
The ad featured six of Gosar’s siblings, David, Tim, Jennifer, Gaston, Joan and Grace, hammering home the point that Gosar “is not working for you.”
Apparently, the bitter sibling rivalry began in earnest last year when Paul Gosar called the violent Charlottesville riots a leftist plot meant to undermine Trump. Subsequently, Paul Gosar also accused liberal billionaire George Soros of being a Nazi collaborator. . .
Instead of worrying or lamenting over his siblings’ surprise attack, Paul Gosar seemed to take in stride and fired back a brutal shot.
My siblings who chose to film ads against me are all liberal Democrats who hate President Trump. These disgruntled Hillary suppporters are related by blood to me but like leftists everywhere, they put political ideology before family. Stalin would be proud. #Az04#MAGA2018

When one Florida man turned 100, staffers at his favorite local Chick-fil-A took it upon themselves to go all-out for a surprise birthday celebration.
On September 21, Stephen Bellissimo visited the chicken-centric chain in Oldsmar, as is his weekly ritual, and was shocked to find the restaurant full of family, friends and decorations on his milestone birthday. . .
According to the outlet, Bellissimo has been frequenting this same Chick-fil-A, which is roughly 6 miles outside Tampa, on a near daily basis, for the last 20 years. Known for “eating at the same booth virtually every day, ordering almost the same thing, and staying for several hours,” Bellissimo is a beloved regular, affectionately known as “Mr. Steve.” . . .
As his 100th birthday drew near, Chick-fil-A was the natural place to celebrate.
“That is the best gift I could ever receive! Thank you very much!” the birthday boy said with a laugh when he heard the news. (Read more from “Chick-Fil-A Throws Surprise 100th Birthday Party for Loyal Customer” HERE)
A CNN interview on Wednesday with former FBI assistant director Chris Swecker didn’t work out quite the way the network was probably hoping after Swecker said the recent accusations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh would not hold up in court.
CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin asked Swecker a series of questions regarding the FBI’s involvement with the accusations of sexual assault made by California university professor Christine Blasey Ford against Kavanaugh. . .
Swecker confirmed during the CNN interview that the FBI won’t handle the case.
“The FBI has no independent jurisdiction to open up a stand-alone investigation of rape allegations or assault allegations that may have taken place 36 years ago,” Swecker said. “That’s a local crime. Unless it involves a federal official or on federal land, or has some federal nexus, there’s just no jurisdiction to do it.”

“There just can’t be any forensic evidence. I would be shocked if they brought a garment forward that might have DNA or something like that,” Swecker said.
Swecker went on to say that the evidence would be “strictly interviews” of the alleged victim, the alleged perpetrator, anyone else who might have been at the party, her therapist or anyone else she may have confided in about the incident.

A video uploaded by Project Veritas on Wednesday shows Department of Justice employees detailing how they “resist” the current administration from inside the government.
Project Veritas was founded by James O’Keefe and is dedicated to investigating and exposing “corruption, dishonesty, self-dealing, waste, fraud, and other misconduct in both public and private institutions in order to achieve a more ethical and transparent society,” according to its website.
Statements made by both a paralegal at the DOJ and a former Health and Human Services employee in the video amount to what Project Veritas attorney Ben Barr outlines as illegal leaks inside the government.
The video included footage of activist members of the Democratic Socialists of America who work at the Department of Justice and admitted to using government resources to find out personal information about government officials that they wanted to protest against, including their home addresses.
Jessica Schubel who is the former Chief of Staff for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services during the last Obama administration says that “There’s like a little resistance movement” inside the government. She admitted to an undercover Project Veritas journalist that someone who currently works inside Health and Human services gives her information before it is released, even admitting that the information was confidential.
Department of Justice paralegal Allison Hrabar is reportedly one of the DOJ employees who is using government resources to further her own political cause. She made the news in June after taking part in a protest that chased Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen from a restaurant.
According to Hrabar, “There’s a lot of talk about how we can like, resist from inside,” at the Department of Justice.
She also talked about a fellow federal employee who works for the US Department of Agriculture who slows down the process of removing individuals from the food stamps program.
“We have a member who works for the people who distribute food stamps, and they can like take that away, and they’re slowing what they do … what they’re doing means that people are going to be able to stay on food stamps for another month or two, which is like really important.”
As for Hrabar herself, she appears to be using government resources to find the individuals that the Democratic Socialists of America want to protest. Fellow DSA member, Cliff Green, appeared on video and spoke about how Hrabar finds the homes of the objectionable Trump administration officials.
“So Allison is a paralegal, so she, her living is researching people, so she’s very good at researching people. So, they just find the companies, and then the people that run those companies, and then they find their home address. She uses Lexis Nexis and a couple other software things.”
Natarajan Subramanian, who serves as an auditor for the Government Accountability Office and fellow DSA member, explained to a Project Veritas journalists that Hrabar uses her work computer for her research. Subramanian said, “That’s the kind of thing that you would get fired for … people do not have the silver bullet, the smoking gun or whatever. Um, if they were able to get proof of that, you know? So, we’re all walking that line.”
Hrabar explained, at one point that she had dug into records, finding that a government official they wished to protest against had moved, so she had to dig deeper. After finding what they thought was the new home of the official she explained: “And so we ran the license plate, and it was a car registered to (the official) … and someone saw him through the window, which is also …”
A Project Veritas journalist asked if they were able to run the plates, to which Hrabar responded that they can, but not officially.
A spokesperson for the Department of Justice issued a response to Project Veritas, saying:
“These allegations are deeply concerning. Department policy prohibits misuse of government resources to advance personal interests. We are looking into this immediately and have referred this matter to the Inspector General as well.”
Project Veritas President James O’Keefe said that this video “may be the largest case of unaccountability in our government that has ever been exposed.”
“Through our undercover reports, we now have proof of government employees leaking confidential information and using government resources to advance their resistance of official government policies they disagree with,” O’Keefe said.
“These videos are the Deep State incarnate, and this is just the tip of the iceberg.” (For more from the author of “Watch: Undercover Video Catches Socialist DOJ Staffer ‘Resisting From the Inside’” please click HERE)

By Conservative Tribune. Having failed to effectively block or derail Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court through normal means and legal issues, Democrats and their liberal media allies have resorted to besmirching his reputation through unsubstantiated allegations of sexual misconduct and blatant smears against his character. . .
In response to the terrible allegation that liberals are using to paint Kavanaugh as some sort of sexual predator, dozens of women who’ve known or worked with the judge over the course of his lengthy career have come forward to dispute that characterization of the nominee.
One of those women is a former law clerk of Kavanaugh’s named Jennifer Mascott, who had nothing but positive things to say about her former boss in a testimonial shared on Facebook by The Daily Signal.
“I’m Jen Mascott. I clerked for Judge Brett Kavanaugh his first year on the bench from 2006 to 2007. So, I really had the honor to clerk for Judge Kavanaugh his first term,” Mascott said.
“He’s gone on to have more than 50 percent of his law clerks be women, and he keeps up with each of his law clerks and continues to mentor us professionally,” she continued. “And I could not be more enthusiastic about President Trump nominating him to a seat on the Supreme Court.

Opposition to Kavanaugh grows, support at historic low: Reuters/Ipsos poll
By Reuters. A growing number of Americans said they opposed President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, as the candidate’s confirmation hearings took place and as he fended off a sexual assault claim, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed.
The Sept. 11-17 poll found that 36 percent of adults surveyed did not want Kavanaugh in the Supreme Court, up 6 points from a similar poll conducted a month earlier.
Only 31 percent of U.S. adults polled said they were in favor of Kavanaugh’s appointment.
If support for his nomination remains this weak, Trump’s pick would rank among the lowest-supported Supreme Court nominees to later be confirmed, according to historical data from Gallup. (Read more from “Opposition to Kavanaugh Grows, Support at Historic Low: Reuters/Ipsos Poll” HERE)

By Conservative Tribune. San Francisco has once again proven itself to be a liberal paradise, with residents begging potential thieves for mercy and trying to connect with them on an emotional level.
Residents of the City by the Bay have begun leaving notes on their vehicles essentially pleading to be left alone.
One resident, Felix Kubin, had his car broken into four times before he decided to write a message on his car according to KGO-TV.
“Thank you for letting this glass remain unbroken. We are a poor family with two kids. No values inside except diapers,” the message read. . .
Creativity contest! Okay it’s not really a contest BUT I do want to hear from you! Have you taken a pic of a note in or on a car like this? Please show me your best plea to SF car break in thieves! @SFCarBreakins@abc7newsbayareapic.twitter.com/H8X1nppTyc
“Please do not break into the car. It has been broken into SIX TIMES … we cannot afford paying for more car windows,” one resident wrote on a vehicle. (Read more from “Lib Paradise: San Fran Drivers Now Leave Notes on Cars Begging Robbers Not to Break in” HERE)

San Francisco Residents Pleading With Thieves to Spare Their Vehicles
By ABC 7. San Francisco residents fed up with having their cars broken into multiple times have taken matters into their own hands. They’re hoping to connect with would be thieves on an emotional level . . .
Kubin says he thinks thieves are using a tool that breaks glass in an emergency.
“It makes treasure hunting in somebody’s cars much more easy,” he told ABC7 News.
Other people have shared photos with ABC7 News of similar pleas to thieves.

In the wake of an anonymous Op-Ed published by The New York Times earlier this month, pundits have speculated extensively about the scope and size of a resistance effort inside the Trump administration.
As The Western Journal previously reported, The Times article was written by a senior official who explained that the opposition is “not the popular ‘resistance’ of the left” but an effort to restrain President Donald Trump from acting on potentially dangerous instincts.
“We want the administration to succeed and think that many of its policies have already made America safer and more prosperous,” the unnamed individual wrote.
In a recent report, however, Project Veritas claims to have uncovered evidence of a leftist effort to stymie the current administration’s
Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe, who has faced criticism in the past for deceptively editing his undercover sting videos, says his latest report exposes “deep state” actors within the executive branch.
“For more than a year, Project Veritas has been investigating the deep state,” he said. “We have caught on our undercover cameras conspirators admitting to violating their ethics reports, illegally using government resources and subverting government policies. What you’re about to see is the hidden face of the resistance inside the executive branch of our government.”
The video included clips from an undercover interview with Stuart Karaffa, identified as a Metro DC Democratic Socialists of America member who also holds a position within the U.S. Department of State.
Karaffa seems to suggest in one segment of the video that he works on leftist political projects while getting paid to perform nonpartisan tasks within the State Department.
“I’m careful about it,” he said. “I don’t leave a paper trail, like I leave emails and like any press s— that comes up, I leave that until after 5:30. But as soon as 5:31 hits, got my like draft messages read to send out.”
At another point, he appears to describe his perceived position within the federal government as a force of disruption.
After apparently acknowledging his behavior is improper, he said he is not afraid of retaliation.
“Maybe someday I’ll go to board of elections jail,” he said. “Probably not.”
Karaffa went on to say that it is “impossible to fire federal employees.”
Among the specific political acts he seemed to admit performing while on the clock was monitoring Virginia’s political activity.
“I mean I could make the case before a court of law that I’m going to the Virginia, sort of campaign finance website, that I’m just interested in what people are doing politically,” he said. “But if they also go and look at like [Democratic Socialists of America] minutes and like officer positions they’ll be like, ‘That’s weird, you were the co-chair of the electoral caucus and you spent three hours on a Virginia campaign finance website.’”
The Washington Times published a statement from a State Department spokesperson who confirmed that Karaffa “is a Management and Program Analyst with the Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations.” (For more from the author of “‘Deep State’ Operative Revealed: Federal Employee Admits His Ridiculous Goal” please click HERE)
Then-Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas faced sexual misconduct allegations while he was going through the Supreme Court confirmation process in 1991 after being nominated to the court by George H. W. Bush.
On October 11, 1991, Thomas gave a statement before the Senate Judiciary Committee after then-Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) asked him if he had anything to say regarding the allegations.
“Senator, I would like to start by saying unequivocally, uncategorically, that I deny each and every single allegation against me today that suggested in any way that I had conversations of a sexual nature or about pornographic material with Anita Hill, that I ever attempted to date her, that I ever had any personal sexual interest in her, or that I in any way ever harassed her,” Thomas began.
“A second, and I think more important point,” Thomas continued. “I think that this today is a travesty. I think that it is disgusting. I think that this hearing should never occur in America. This is a case in which this sleaze, this dirt, was searched for by staffers of members of this committee, was then leaked to the media, and this committee and this body validated it and displayed it at prime time over our entire nation. How would any member on this committee, any person in this room, or any person in this country, would like sleaze said about him or her in this fashion? Or this dirt dredged up and this gossip and these lies displayed in this manner? How would any person like it?”
“The Supreme Court is not worth it. No job is worth it. I am not here for that. I am here for my name, my family, my life, and my integrity,” Thomas said. “I think something is dreadfully wrong with this country when any person, any person in this free country would be subjected to this.”
