Oh, Boy: Liberals Lose Their Mind Over Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ Latest Tweet

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Monday shared a “Mueller Madness” bracket of various public figures who were wrong about the Russia probe. The bracket was clearly a hat tip to “March Madness” featuring college basketball teams.

. . .

But the joke’s on them. It turns out the New York Post’s Op-Ed Editor created the graphic. It was part of an opinion piece he published.

VIRAL VIDEO: Texas Officer Pulls Over Stolen Truck Hour North of Border, Then Things Get Wild

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A dashcam video posted by a Texas sheriff’s office on Friday showing what at first looks like a routine traffic stop has already racked up over 7 million views — and it’s not hard to figure out why.

The viral video starts with a white king cab Ford 250 pulled over on the side of Highway 281 outside Encino, Texas, with its hazards flashing. The rear passenger-side door opens up and a man with a hat peers out, looking back at the sheriff’s cruiser. But before the man is even securely back in the vehicle, the truck races away, the cruiser pursuing.

The truck turns left on the median turn lanes, then drives across both of the other two lanes onto the side of the road. The short-lived high-speed chase ends abruptly, with the truck stopping on the side of the road near a fence.

That’s when the run-of-the-mill looking truck — which the sheriff’s office says turned out to be stolen — suddenly begins looking more like a circus car. In a flash, a stunning number of people, who many online assume to be illegal immigrants, jump out from all four doors and the back bed and to try to make a run for it.

Over 20 people — almost entirely young men — flee the single vehicle. Most of them exit from the cab, but at least nine had been apparently lying flat in the bed of the truck with a piece of cardboard over them to hide them from view.

Omar Encourages Muslims to ‘Raise Hell, Make People Uncomfortable’ — Then She Targets Trump

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Controversial freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) encouraged some 400 Los Angeles-area Muslims Saturday to “raise hell” and stand defiant in the face of what she characterized as rampant discrimination against the Muslim community. . .

“I say raise hell, make people uncomfortable,” Omar said. “Because here’s the truth. For far too long, we have lived with the discomfort of living as second class citizens, and frankly I’m tired of it and every single Muslim in this country should be tired of it.” . . .

“We finally have a leader, a world leader, in the White House who publicly says ‘Islam hates us,’ who fuels hate against Muslims, who think it is OK to speak about a faith and a whole community in a way that is dehumanizing, vilifying, and doesn’t understand — or at least makes us think he doesn’t understand — the consequences his words might have,” Omar said.

“Some people, like me, know that [Trump] understands the consequences,” she claimed. “He know that there are people that he can influence to threaten our lives, to diminish our presence.”

Caught on Camera: CNN Forced to Make Huge Admission About Mueller Investigation

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. Now that Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report has landed on Attorney General William Barr’s desk, and it has been revealed that no collusion took place between Russia and the Trump campaign, CNN panelists are forced to say the news “vindicates” the president.

“So if, if as Jeffrey [Toobin] is saying, they [Trump administration] get great news, the great news is, first of all, there’s no more indictments,” CNN political analyst Gloria Borger said on Friday. “But if suddenly the president has to say those angry Democrats who were working with Bob Mueller were actually just part of a Justice Department doing its job after he has criticized the Justice Department, then he’s now vindicated.”

CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin agreed with Borger.

“Let’s be specific. This is really good news for a lot of people around Donald Trump. Donald Trump Jr. Jared Kushner. Jerome Corsi. The writer who had a draft indictment presented to him by Mueller’s office and they decided not to go forward with this,” Toobin explained. “Let’s be fair here. There has been a lot of suspicion around certain people. And a lot of negative things have been said and imputation of criminal activity. Mueller has said, ‘I am not proceeding.’ There is no better news to receive than you are not being indicted by the United States government.”

Mueller’s Investigation is Finally Complete

By Politico. In a one-page letter sent to congressional leaders, Barr said he may be able to advise lawmakers of Mueller’s “principal conclusions” as soon as this weekend, which DOJ expects to release to the public. Barr also noted that he would determine “what other information from the report can be released to Congress and the public consistent with the law.”

One thing is for sure, though. Mueller was never told, “no.” Barr is required to tell Congress if DOJ leaders ever refused a Mueller request on a major step. The attorney general headed off such speculation Friday, telling Congress “there were not such instances during the Special Counsel’s investigation.”

And a senior Justice Department official put to rest rampant speculation about any forthcoming indictments from Mueller: “The special counsel is not recommending any further indictments.”

Essentially, DOJ’s message was: Mueller is done, and he was allowed to follow every lead. (Read more from “Mueller’s Investigation is Finally Complete” HERE)

U.S. Airport Bans Chick-Fil-A

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. Chick-fil-A does not have a place in San Antonio International Airport because of what the city council calls the restaurant’s “legacy of anti-LGBTQ” behaviors. . .

Councilman Robert Treviño told the station that the council made the decision based on inclusivity.

“With this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion,” he said. “San Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we do not have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior.” . . .

A restaurant representative expressed their disappointment in the decision in a statement provided to Fox News.

“The press release issued by Council Member Treviño was the first we heard of his motion and its approval by the San Antonio City Council,” the spokesperson said. “We agree with him that everyone is and should feel welcome at Chick-fil-A. We have a fundamental code of conduct at Chick-fil-A: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” (Read more from “U.S. Airport Bans Chick-Fil-A” HERE)

Smoke Shack, Spurs and Others Coming to San Antonio International; Chick-Fil-A Blocked

By KTSA. Some familiar local brands will be making their way into San Antonio International Airport’s Terminal A, but one local favorite has been banned by the city council.

The city council approved a contract Thursday with Paradies Lagardere to run and manage the concessions in the terminal. It is a seven-year contract with three one-year extension options that is guaranteed to generate $2.1 million in revenue for the city.

The deal would bring brands like Smoke Shack, Local Coffee, Sip, The Luxury, and Boss Bagels and Coffee. The agreement, as recommended by the city staff, also included a Chick-Fil-A in the airport.

The staff’s original consideration was to have a Panda Express, but staff went to Chick-Fil-A instead because of its popularity and health food considerations. (Read more from “Smoke Shack, Spurs and Others Coming to San Antonio International; Chick-Fil-A Blocked” HERE)

James Comey Makes a Surprising Statement About Impeachment

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. James Comey, the former FBI director that was fired by President Donald Trump, made a surprising statement about impeachment that might stun some Democrats. . .

“I hope that Mr. Trump is not impeached and removed from office before the end of his term,” he said in an op-ed in the New York Times.

“Because if Mr. Trump were removed from office by Congress,” he explained, “a significant portion of this country would see this as a coup, and it would drive those people farther from the common center of American life, more deeply fracturing our country.”

Comey did not suddenly become a Trump supporter, however. He opined that he would prefer the president he tossed out of office in the next election. That way his defeat will be “much harder to distort, or to nurse as a grievance” than if he were impeached.

“We need a resounding election result in 2020,” Comey explained, “where Americans of all stripes, divided as they may be about important policy issues — immigration, guns, abortion, climate change, regulation, taxes — take a moment from their busy lives to show that they are united by something even more important: the belief that the president of the United States cannot be a chronic liar who repeatedly attacks the rule of law.” (Read more from “James Comey Makes a Surprising Statement About Impeachment” HERE)

Comey: I don’t want Mueller to prove Trump is a criminal

By Washington Examiner. Former FBI Director James Comey said he doesn’t care whether Robert Mueller finds President Trump took part in any wrongdoing as suspense builds for the long-awaited report from the special counsel.

Comey, who was fired in 2016 by Trump and has spoken critically of the president since, wrote in a New York Times op-ed, that he’s not rooting for Mueller to show that Trump is a criminal; nor is he hoping Mueller clears the president of wrongdoing.

He does hope for “maximum transparency,” he said.

“I have no idea whether the special counsel will conclude that Mr. Trump knowingly conspired with the Russians in connection with the 2016 election or that he obstructed justice with the required corrupt intent. I also don’t care. I care only that the work be done, well and completely. If it is, justice will have prevailed and core American values will have been protected at a time when so much of our national leadership has abandoned its commitment to truth and the rule of law,” Comey wrote.

New Presidential Polls Show Drastically Declining Support for This Dem

/0 Comments/in , , /by

According to political polling expert Harry Enten, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) has been plummeting in the latest round of 2020 Democratic presidential polls. Enten wrote at CNN yesterday:

Our new CNN poll puts Sanders favorable rating at 46% compared to an unfavorable rating of 45% among registered voters. This is only the latest poll to have Sanders at basically even in his net favorability rating (favorable-unfavorable). A Quinnipiac University poll from late December gave the Vermont senator a net favorability of just +2 points. An average of all recent polls put Sanders’ net favorability at about -1 points.

. . .

Enten then speculates as to why this precipitous decline in Sanders’ favorability number may have transpired:

So, what’s changed? I’d argue that Sanders was benefiting from not being in a competitive campaign. (Former Vice President Joe Biden, who has garnered the most support in general election polls among the Democrats, may be benefiting from a similar effect.) When you’re not being thought of a viable threat to win a party’s nomination, opponents tend to lay off. The last time Sanders was thought of as at least a minor threat to win the Democratic nomination was in March 2016. His net favorability rating back then among all voters was +3 points in a CNN poll.

. . .

Sanders, famously, was the 2016 Democratic presidential field runner-up, behind nominee Hillary Clinton. As Paul Sperry wrote at The New York Post in January 2016, Sanders’ career history is rife with open support for Communist regimes and sundry Marxist causes.

2020 Democrats Have A Terrifying Goal

/0 Comments/in , , /by

MIDGA, or Make the Iran Deal Great Again, appears to be 2020 Democratic presidential candidates’ unified foreign policy platform.

Several major 2020 Democratic presidential candidates want to resuscitate the Iran nuclear deal, the controversial Obama-era agreement that President Trump withdrew from in May 2018.

Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Kamala Harris, D-Calif., told the pro-Tehran Al Monitor that they would support re-entering the nuclear agreement with the Iranian regime.

The report adds:

“The other 10 candidates did not respond to Al-Monitor’s request for comment, including Sens. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke. All four voted for the deal in 2015, while O’Rourke was one of only 20 House members to vote against new Iran sanctions opposed by Obama in 2015.

And former Vice President Joe Biden, who is expected to announce whether he is running next month, remains a champion of the pact negotiated under his watch.”

President Trump withdrew from the Iran deal last year, citing its disastrous ramifications for American interests and global stability.

“The fact is this was a horrible, one-sided deal that should have never, ever been made. It didn’t bring calm, it didn’t bring peace, and it never will,” he said in remarks announcing his commitment to stopping Iran from acquiring nukes.

The agreement, decried by President Trump as the “worst deal in history,” gave the terrorist regime that rules Iran $150 billion, provided a road map to deliverable nuclear weapons, and allowed the Tehran regime’s unchecked advances throughout the Middle East. It also allowed Iran to quadruple annual aid to the Hezbollah terrorist group while continuing to fund and aid its worldwide terrorist and criminal proxies.

As I explained last year for Conservative Review, the Iran deal was not solely about nuclear weapons. The Iran deal was fundamentally an agreement designed to reorient the balance of power in the Middle East away from traditional U.S. allies and to restructure the region by providing a huge boost to the Tehran regime.

In the era of Orange Man Bad, whatever Trump does, 2020 Democrats must take the opposite approach, and this of course applies to U.S. foreign policy too. 2020 Democrats are pledging to re-engage in a weapons-grade disaster of an agreement with the world’s foremost state sponsor of international terrorism, U.S. national security interests be damned.

Muslim Terrorists in New Mexico Tied to Dems

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By WND. A federal grand jury in New Mexico has indicted five Muslims who allegedly trained children to carry out school massacres on terrorism-related offenses, conspiracy to commit murder and kidnapping.

The five were arrested Aug. 3, 2018, after authorities in a raid found 11 hungry children living in squalid conditions in a remote, makeshift training compound.

The leader, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, is the son of Imam Siraj Wahhaj, a former board member of the Council on American-Islamic Relations who is on record urging a violent overthrow of the “filthy” U.S. government. The elder Wahhaj gave an opening prayer at an event at the Democratic National Convention in 2012, pointed out Matthew Vadum in an column for FrontPage Magazine. The imam also has been called a spiritual adviser to jihad promoter and Bernie Sanders supporter Linda Sarsour. Vadum wrote that the “openly anti-Semitic Sarsour sits on the board of the Women’s March organization and openly admits membership in America’s largest Marxist group, the Democratic Socialists of America.” . . .

The defendants previously were indicted on weapons and conspiracy charges. The new indictment, issued Thursday, alleges “the defendants conspired to provide material support in preparation for violent attacks against federal law enforcement officers and members of the military,” said Assistant Attorney General John C. Demers. . .

The defendants, along with Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, are Jany Leveille, Hujrah Wahhaj, Subhanah Wahhaj and Lucas Morton. Leveille, Wahhaj’s “Islamic wife,” is an illegal immigrant from Haiti who also is under investigation by federal immigration authorities for overstaying her non-immigrant visitor visa.

Defendants in New Mexico Compound Case Hit With New Charges

By Reuters. Five people taken into custody in August at a New Mexico compound where 11 children were found ragged and starving have been charged with a conspiracy to carry out attacks on U.S. targets, federal prosecutors said on Thursday.The superseding indictment adds to firearms offenses already filed against the defendants in U.S. District Court following a raid at the makeshift training camp where a 3-year-old boy was found buried. . .

“These allegations remind us of the dangers of terrorism that continue to confront our nation, and the allegation concerning the death of a young child only underscores the importance of prompt and effective intervention by law enforcement,” Anderson said.

Federal public defender Kari Converse, a lead attorney for the defendants in the case, said she was out of state on Thursday and could not comment on the superseding indictment until she had studied it more thoroughly.

Mystery of the Minnesota Woman Who Was Totally Frozen and Survived

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Epoch Times. In 1980, a Minnesota woman named Jean Hilliard was literally frozen stiff for several hours in subzero temperatures. No, it isn’t a hoax.

Hilliard collapsed on a 22-below-zero night as she was trying to seek shelter after a car accident. . .

Dr. George Sather in the report said that “I thought she was dead, but then we picked up an extremely faint whimper. We knew there was a person existing then.”

Jean’s chances of surviving were quite slim, and her body temperature didn’t even register on a thermometer, meaning her body temperature was less than 80 degrees F. . .

“There was no evidence of a pulse or blood pressure,” Sather’s brother, Dr. Edgar Sather, told the Gazette at the time. (Read more from “Mystery of the Minnesota Woman Who Was Totally Frozen and Survived” HERE)

Teenager Recovers After Being Frozen Stiff

By Associated Press. Miss Hilliard was frozen after a midnight automobile accident in rural northwestern Minnesota. When she arrived at the Fosston, Minn., hospital, her skin was too hard to pierce with a hypodermic needle. Her temperature was too low to register on a thermometer. Her face was ashen and her eyes were solid and did not respond to light. . .

Doctors were unable to give her intravenous feedings because ”she was frozen too solid to penetrate the skin,” said Dr. Sather’s brother, Dr. Edgar Sather.

Her pulse, hardly registering through her frozen skin, was about 12 beats a minute. And her temperature was too low for a thermometer, with a low reading of 88 degrees, 10 degrees below normal. But in several hours, wrapped in an electric heating pad, she began to revive. (Read more from “Teenager Recovers After Being Frozen Stiff” HERE)
