Robert De Niro Panics: If Trump Wins, ‘He’ll Come Looking for Me’ (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

Hollywood star Robert De Niro is panicking at the prospect of former President Donald Trump winning in November and reclaiming the White House, predicting that Trump “will come looking for me.”

Robert De Niro voiced his paranoid fantasy during a Friday appearance on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher.

“If he wins the election, you won’t be on the show anymore. He’ll come looking for me. There’ll be things that happen that none of us can imagine,” De Niro said.

De Niro said a Trump reelection in November would be a “nightmare.”

“We wanna live in a world that we want to live in and enjoy living in, or live in a nightmare? Vote for Trump and you’ll get the nightmare, vote for Biden and we’ll be back to normalcy,” he said during Friday’s show.

Discovery Channel Laments Co-Producing Chinese Propaganda Covering Up Uyghur Genocide

/2 Comments/in , /by

Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc., the parent company of the Discovery Channel, appeared to express remorse in a letter to members of Congress made public on Thursday about its decision to co-produce a travel program with Chinese state media focused on occupied East Turkistan, where the Communist Party has been engaging in genocidal activities since at least 2017.

The Discovery Channel entered an agreement with CGTN, a Chinese government propaganda outlet, to produce a documentary released in January called World’s Ultimate Frontier, showcasing the breathtaking desert and mountain landscapes of East Turkistan. China refers to East Turkistan, a formerly free state colonized by mass murderer Mao Zedong, by the Mandarin name “Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region,” or XUAR. The documentary claims to portray the “real Xinjiang,” as opposed to the reality that human rights activists and journalists have uncovered throughout the past decade of a genocidal police state littered with concentration camps, slave-worked farms, and high-tech mass surveillance.

“What comes to mind when you think of Xinjiang? Vast expanses of desert, towering mountains, diverse minorities living in harmony, cultures fusing together?” CGTN asks in its promotional video on the documentary.

“The fact is that Xinjiang has so many facets that its charm can hardly be captured in words! Thankfully anyone interested in experiencing the real Xinjiang is in for a treat when the documentary World’s Ultimate Frontier is aired on January 19.”

CGTN deleted its preview article and video on the documentary series shortly after its debut, as it attracted the attention of members of Congress, who questioned the Discovery Channel’s role in promoting the series. The series remains online, however, on CGTN’s YouTube channel, with no overt mentions of the Discovery Channel’s role in the production.

Biden Threatens Supreme Court Over Abortion Ruling (VIDEO)

/3 Comments/in , /by

Following in the footsteps of Sen. Chuck Schumer, who earlier publicly threatened members of the U.S. Supreme Court, and other Democrats, Joe Biden took the same approach during his politicized State of the Union speech.

“With all due respect, justices, women are not without electrical power! Excuse me, electoral or political power. You’re about to realize…”

A report by The Gateway Pundit noted the threat was a Biden ad lib, as it was not in the White House transcript prepared for his speech.

That said, “Many of you in this Chamber and my predecessor are promising to pass a national ban on reproductive freedom. My god, what freedoms will you take away next?”

The Daily Mail reported it was one of many “political barbs” in the partisan speech. (Read more from “Biden Threatens Supreme Court Over Abortion Ruling (VIDEO)” HERE)

WATCH: Protesters Destroy ‘Historic Painting’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Pro-Palestinian protesters destroyed a century-old painting of a British lord responsible for helping the Jews secure Israel as their homeland, according to Palestinian Action.

The painting was of Lord Arthur James Balfour, a former foreign secretary of the United Kingdom, and sits at Trinity College of the University of Cambridge. One protester with the group Palestinian Action spray painted the artwork Friday before slashing the ‘historic painting’ into pieces with a blade, according to a statement from the protesters.

“An activist slashed the homage and sprayed the artwork with red paint, symbolising the bloodshed of the Palestinian people since the Balfour Declaration was issued in 1917,” the group wrote. “Arthur Balfour, then UK foreign secretary, issued a declaration which promised to build “a national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine, where the majority of the indigenous population were not Jewish. He gave away the Palestinians homeland — a land that wasn’t his to give away. ”

A journalist for BBC Scotland died after suffering a brain aneurysm at the age of 32.

Nick Sheridan collapsed while jogging and had been placed in an induced coma by doctors, according to The Telegraph. He passed away Wednesday night, over a week after the collapse happened, while surrounded by his family, his friends said.

BBC Scotland head of news Gary Smith paid tribute to Sheridan in a statement released Thursday morning.

“He was a hugely talented journalist, presenter and author—and one of those rare people who light up the lives of everyone around them. Funny, clever, kind. A lovely man,” Smith said. “Our hearts go out to his parents, who have been with him over the past ten days, to his partner, Lewis, and to all the rest of his family and friends.”

First Minister Humza Yousaf honored him during his weekly question session in the Scottish Parliament.

A24’s ‘Civil War’ Film Provokes Raft of Conspiracy Theories and Fear (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

Indie studio A24 is preparing an April release of its provocative film Civil War and the movie is already provoking fierce debate from all sides of the political spectrum even as details on its plot are still sparse.

The film’s trailer was released in Jan. and shows an America in chaos. Director Alex Garland imagines a situation where Texas and California team up to militarily face down the United States government — a concept that seems decidedly absurd in real life since Texas and California are diametrically opposed politically — meanwhile, another military force called the “Florida Alliance” pursues its own goals. And all the while, the U.S. president — who is in his “third term” — arrests journalists, locks down Washington D.C., and launches massive military strikes against American citizens.

It is a dystopian film that shows the American experiment coming to a bloody and violent end. . .

“The idea of another American civil war happening today actually keeps me up at night,” one left-wing person wrote online, according to the Hollywood Reporter. “This is a movie that I want to keep far away from. Even if it’s based on a political scenario so far removed from our own. I just do not want to entertain the notion of something so horrible.”

“A movie about a second American Civil War in an election year in which the second American Civil War is a serious concern among law-enforcement and rational people alike?” said another. (Read more from “A24’s ‘Civil War’ Film Provokes Raft of Conspiracy Theories and Fear (VIDEO)” HERE)

NBA Hall of Famer Charles Barkley has sparked controversy after threatening physical violence against black supporters of former President Donald Trump. In a recent segment with CNN’s Gayle King, Barkley expressed his strong disapproval of Trump’s comments regarding his mugshot becoming popular among some black individuals.

During Trump’s speech in Columbia, South Carolina, where he mentioned the popularity of his mugshot among black supporters, Barkley voiced his outrage on CNN. Trump remarked, “You know who embraced more than anybody else? The Black population. It’s incredible. You see Black people walking around with my mugshot – you know they do shirts.”

In response to these comments, Barkley issued a threatening statement on air. “First of all, I’m just gonna say this,” he declared. “If I see a Black person walking around with a Trump mugshot, I’m gonna punch him in the face.” He further emphasized the sincerity of his threat, stating, “Oh, I mean that sincerely!”

Barkley continued, asserting that he wouldn’t mind facing legal consequences for assaulting a black Trump supporter. “I’m gonna bail myself out and go celebrate,” he boldly told King.

Police Issue Warning Over Thefts Increasing 1,285% For Chevy Camaro. Criminals Using New Method

/0 Comments/in , /by

Los Angeles police warned Thursday that suspects are using a new method that has caused a 1,285% spike in the theft of Chevrolet Camaro, according to a statement.

“[K]ey clone devices have been utilized in many newer model Camaro thefts,” the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) said in the statement. “These devices are about the size of a cell phone and area programming tool that picks up the signal of a key fob nearby which the device then clones.”

The Gang Enforcement Detail (GED) belonging to LAPD’s Newton Community Police Station arrested a juvenile allegedly in possession of such a device, the statement noted.

“This young person was stealing the Camaros and taking them to street takeovers and then selling them for $2,000 or $3,000 on social media,” Newton Division Capt. Keith Green told the Los Angeles Times. “A 16-year-old was capable of stealing high-end cars.”

The police spotted the suspect and another teenager fleeing a Camaro they had abandoned and arrested them, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Biden Ignores Questions on Laken Riley’s Murder During Border Visit (VIDEO)

/2 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden ignored questions regarding the murder of 22-year-old Laken Riley, allegedly at the hands of an illegal alien released into the United States, while speaking to the media in Brownsville, Texas, near the southern border.

On Thursday, Biden spoke alongside Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas at a Border Patrol station in Brownsville, mostly about the record-setting illegal immigration that has occurred on their watch.

When the press conference ended, a reporter asked Biden, “Mr. President, do you bear any responsibility for Laken Riley’s death?” Biden did not turn around to address the question and instead continued shaking hands with officials.

In contrast, presumptive GOP presidential nominee former President Donald Trump revealed that he has spoken with Riley’s parents, whom he called “incredible people.” (Read more from “Biden Ignores Questions on Laken Riley’s Murder During Border Visit” HERE)
