Mystery Solved: We Now Know Who Was Buying Up $1B Worth of Land Near Calif. Military Base — And What They Want It For

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The mystery buyers of nearly $1 billion of undeveloped land abutting a California military base were revealed to be Silicon Valley heavyweights — and not a network of Chinese spies as some lawmakers feared.

The land grab near Travis Air Force Base by Flannery Associates — which has become the largest landowner in Solano County, about 60 miles northeast of San Francisco — had prompted concern that a foreign entity could be using the investment to harm US national security.

However, it turns out Flannery’s backers are a who’s who list of tech titans and investors that includes LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman and Emerson Collective philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, according to the New York Times.

The deep-pocketed investors reportedly plan to turn the land into their vision of an ideal city, featuring sustainable energy and a pedestrian-friendly layout.

Aside from Hoffman and Powell Jobs, Flannery’s investors reportedly include Marc Andreessen of the private venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, former Sequoia Capital partner Michael Moritz and Stripe co-founders Patrick and John Collison, as well as entrepreneurs Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross.

Silence Over Drowning of Obama Chef Sparks Conspiracy Theories Including His Relationship With the Unidentified Woman Who Witnessed His Death

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Police in Massachusetts are continuing to cover up information about the death of Obama personal chef Tafari Campbell even after declaring the case closed this week, DailyMail.com can reveal.

The response has prompted an outcry from First Amendment advocates who have been left asking: ‘What do they have to hide?’

And it has also sparked a plethora of conspiracy theories including the role of the former president’s family in the cover-up and Campbell’s relationship with the unidentified woman who witnessed his death.

Earlier this month state police had withheld information under the guise of an ‘ongoing investigation’, citing a Public Records Law exemption that allows authorities to keep details on grounds that it could jeopardize an active investigation.

But after the 45-year-old’s death was officially ruled an accidental drowning earlier this week, authorities are yet to address how an apparently capable swimmer, paddle boarding near the ex-president’s summer home in Martha’s Vineyard, could have drowned in shallow water.

Here’s Why a Leftist Restaurant Is Refusing to Serve Uniformed Police Officers

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A police union in San Francisco, California, lambasted a bakery and restaurant that refused to serve a police officer in uniform.

“NO COPS ALLOWED. That’s the confirmed policy of the bakery chain Reem’s. One of our officers was denied service last weekend because he was in uniform,” said the San Francisco Police Officers Association on social media.

“Reem’s confirms that they will not serve anyone armed and in uniform. Presumably, this includes members of the US Military,” the group added.

Police union president Lt. Tracy McCray told KNTV-TV that an officer was refused service at the restaurant, and the union reached out to clarify the official policy of the business.

“I politely left because I believe that police officers and community members should spend more time listening to each other than shouting at each other,” said Officer Vincent Fontela. “But you can’t do that when your presence isn’t wanted and your money is no good.” (Read more from “Here’s Why a Leftist Restaurant Is Refusing to Serve Uniformed Police Officers” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Navy SEAL credited with fatally shooting terrorist Osama bin Laden was reportedly arrested on two charges in Frisco, Texas, recently.

Authorities booked 47-year-old Robert J. O’Neill into jail on Wednesday and released him hours later on a $3,500 bond, the Dallas Morning News reported Friday.

According to law enforcement, “O’Neill faces a Class A misdemeanor charge of assault causing bodily injury and a Class C misdemeanor charge of public intoxication. Jail records list only the assault charge,” the newspaper said, noting the Tennessee resident was in the area Tuesday to record a podcast.

A few years after bin Laden’s death in 2011, O’Neill, a Montana native, said he was the one who fired the shots that killed the terrorist leader. . .

During an interview in September, O’Neill recalled the moment he came face to face with bin Laden and recognized him:

Why Trump’s Mugshot Is a Big Win for Trump

/10 Comments/in , , /by

Donald Trump’s mugshot will be the most trafficked photo in the history of planet Earth because social media is so ubiquitous.

Yesterday, he went to the Fulton County jailhouse where he was arrested and fingerprinted. They took his picture. The mugshot is now out.

It’s a win for Trump to have his mugshot taken. The Left thought it would be a win for them, but here’s the thing about Trump: Trump is a walking, living, breathing meme. He is made for TV. He is made for the Internet. He’s changed our age because of that.

It’s not as though no one knew he was arrested. It’s not as though it was a shock dawning on the American people that Donald Trump is under indictment in four separate jurisdictions. We’ve known about all of this for months.

What the mugshot does — especially this particular mugshot — is give Trump the appearance of somebody who is bravely standing up to forces that are going after him. (Read more from “Why Trump’s Mugshot Is a Big Win for Trump” HERE)

Biden Targeted Twitter Because of Elon Musk’s Support for Free Speech

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Federal Trade Commission inappropriately pressured an independent third-party auditing firm to find Twitter had violated the terms of its settlement agreement with the FTC, a motion filed last week in federal court reveals. That misconduct and the FTC’s own repudiation of the terms of the settlement agreement entitle Twitter to vacate the consent order, its lawyers maintain.

This latest development holds significance beyond Twitter’s fight with the FTC, however, with the details providing further evidence that the Biden administration targeted Twitter because of its owner Elon Musk’s support for free speech on his platform.

I “felt as if the FTC was trying to influence the outcome of the engagement before it had started,” a CPA with nearly 30 years of experience with the Big Four accounting firm Ernst & Young (EY) testified last month. The FTC’s pressure campaign left EY partner David Roque so unsettled that he sought guidance from another partner concerning controlling ethical standards for CPAs to assess whether his independence had been compromised by the federal agency.

Roque’s testimony prompted attorneys for Twitter to seek documents from the FTC to assess whether the federal agency had repeated its pressure campaign with EY’s successors, but the agency refused to provide any details to the social media giant. Twitter responded last week by filing a “Motion for a Protective Order and Relief From Consent Order.” (Read more from “Biden Targeted Twitter Because of Elon Musk’s Support for Free Speech” HERE)

Donald Trump After Fulton County Arrest: This Is a ‘Travesty of Justice’

/2 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump spoke to reporters shortly after surrendering into custody and being booked by Fulton County Sheriff’s Office. He declared that “What has taken place here is a travesty of justice.”

“I really believe this is a very sad day for America. This should never happen. You should be able to challenge an election. The election was a rigged election, the stolen election, and I should have every right to do that,” Trump told reporters.

Trump was booked on his fourth indictment in five months on Thursday after a Fulton County, Georgia, grand jury handed down a 98-page, 41-count indictment against Trump and 18 others.

Trump compared his situation to that of Democrats like Hillary Clinton and Georgia’s Stacey Abrams, who previously questioned the legitimacy of elections, yet never faced criminal prosecution. (Read more from “Donald Trump After Fulton County Arrest: This Is a ‘Travesty of Justice’” HERE)

Misinformation: Joe Biden Lies About Debate Questions in Social Media Posts

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Joe Biden lied in social media posts about the questions posed to Republican presidential candidates in Wednesday night’s first primary debate, creating a false set of questions in a fake video.

Biden’s questions were: “Raise your hand if you’ll ban abortion”; “Raise your hand if you’ll cut Social Security”; aise your hand if you’re a climate denier”; “Raise your hand if you’re going to support Trump.”

The video shows these questions as captions below a video loop of Republican candidates raising their hands to answer an actual question posed at the debate — namely, which of the contenders would support Donald Trump if he won the party’s nomination after being convicted in a court of law. (Trump faces two state and two federal criminal indictments, which many Republican voters consider political in nature.)

‘Why Wouldn’t They Do the Same This Time?’: Tucker Presses Trump on Stolen Election Claims

By Breitbart. Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson pressed former President Donald Trump on his repeated stolen election claims during a Wednesday interview.

Trump repeated his claim that former Vice President Mike Pence had the right to challenge the electoral votes on January 6, 2021. He reiterated the results in Georgia should have been challenged and recounted following the 2020 presidential election.

“So, you’re saying they stole it from you last time. Why wouldn’t they do the same this time?” Carlson asked.

“They’ll try. They’re going to try,” the former president replied. “And not all.”
