Trump Gets Massive Nobel Prize News

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Conservative Tribune. . .As amazing news from the Korean peninsula continues to break, it looks increasingly possible that the decades-long hostilities between North and South Korea may finally be resolved in a peaceful manner … and Donald Trump played a major role in the process . . .

“We, the undersigned members of the United States Congress, respectfully nominate President Donald J. Trump to receive the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his work to end the Korean War, denuclearize the Korean Peninsula, and bring peace to the region,” states a letter signed by 18 lawmakers.

“Since taking office, President Trump has worked tirelessly to apply maximum pressure on North Korea to end its illicit weapons program and bring peace to the region,” the official nomination letter continues.

“His Administration successfully united the international community, including China, to impose one of the most successful international sanctions regimes in history.”

Almost nobody predicted that talks in Korea would move as fast as they did, and events have moved so quickly that there is still some doubt about whether or not North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is actually serious about keeping his word. (Read more from “Trump Gets Massive Nobel Prize News” HERE)

House Republicans Nominate Trump for Nobel Peace Prize

By The Guardian. Eighteen House Republicans have nominated Donald Trump for the 2019 Nobel peace prize.

In a letter spearheaded by the Indiana Republican Luke Messer and sent to the Norwegian Nobel committee, the lawmakers claim that Trump should “receive the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his work to end the Korean War, denuclearize the Korean peninsula and bring peace to the region”.

The rules for a Nobel prize nomination are relatively loose. Nominations can only be made by people who belong to a handful of categories, including members of a national legislation body, university professors and former winners of the prize – but there are no other restrictions. In 2018, there were 330 nominees to win the award, which will be announced in December. The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons was the 2017 winner.

The Nobel committee operates under aegis of the government of Norway, but a 2009 justice department memo says the prize and accompanying $1.4m award does not qualify as a “emolument” from a foreign power, as the committee is independent from the government. Trump has previously faced criticism over foreign government spending at his hotels, which scholars have argued is an emolument. The Trump Organization has said that it has given all profits from foreign governments to the US treasury. (Read more from “House Republicans Nominate Trump for Nobel Peace Prize” HERE)

Kathy Griffin Issues Shock ‘Date Rape’ Trump Statement

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Conservative Tribune. . .That was on full display Monday, when Kathy Griffin took to the Trump-hating stage of ABC’s “The View” to continue her return to American celebrity a year after she seemingly self-destructed with a picture of Trump decapitated in effigy.

“By the way, I take the apology back,” she told “The View” co-hosts flippantly. “F*** him. “And the sons, the sons, Don Jr. and Eric, or as I call them, ‘Eddie Munster’ and ‘Date Rape.’” . . .

The changed tone is probably because Griffin realized that when she groveled for forgiveness, she’d actually underestimated the degree to which coastal liberals in this country have committed themselves to opposing Trump no matter how successful he might be.

But now that she’s back in full Trump-despising mode, Griffin is reaping the benefits. She even made a point of telling the shrews on “The View” that she’d sold out New York’s Carnegie Hall for an upcoming show, eliciting a round of applause from the trained seals in the audience.

Kathy Griffin Curses up a Storm on ABC’s ‘The View’ During Profane Trump Rant

By Fox News. Kathy Griffin seemed to forget she was on morning television when she dropped the F-bomb several times and cursed throughout her appearance on ABC’s “The View.”

The comedian had to have her mic cut multiple times, and co-host Joy Behar appeared to attempt to get Griffin to keep things PG but failed.

The 57-year-old once again took back her apology after she nearly lost her career for posing with a bloodied Trump mask in 2017.

“Yeah, I take the apology back,” she told the hosts. “F— him. And Don Jr. and Eric, or as I call them Eddie Munster and Date Rape. I’m not holding back on this family. This president is different and I have been through the mill and so now I’m back on the road. I sold out Carnegie Hall in less than 24 hours.” (Read more from “Kathy Griffin Curses up a Storm on ABC’s ‘The View’ During Profane Trump Rant” HERE)

Journalist Posts Dossier Timeline, Confirms Deep State and Media Colluding to Trounce Trump

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Conservative Tribune. For more than a year, the liberal mainstream media — and particularly CNN — have gleefully perpetuated a conspiracy theory regarding alleged collusion between the Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and the Russian government as an explanation for Hillary Clinton’s surprising electoral loss in 2016. The centerpiece of that claim are the contents of a “salacious and unverified” anti-Trump dossier.

That dossier was believed to have been compiled during the lead up to the election by former British spy Christopher Steele in association with a liberal opposition research firm known as Fusion GPS, with funding supplied by Clinton’s campaign and the Democrat National Committee.

Unfortunately for them, its veracity has increasingly become even more dubious as more information about its creation and introduction to the public have been uncovered.

Indeed, it now appears that the only “collusion” that took place during the 2016 election was between Trump-hating “deep state” government employees — namely former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and fired FBI Director James Comey, among others — and their willing anti-Trump allies in the liberal media.

Sean Davis of The Federalist laid it all out last week in a timeline after scouring through the 253 pages of a declassified House Intelligence Committee report on alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 election and comparing that knowledge with what has already been gleaned from other sources.

Leaked Questions Reveal What Mueller Wants to Ask Trump About Russia

By The Guardian. Robert Mueller, the special counsel investigating Russian interference in the US election, wants to ask Donald Trump about contact between his former election campaign manager Paul Manafort and Russia, the New York Times reported on Monday.

The paper said it had obtained a list of nearly 50 questions that Mueller, investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election, wants to put to the US president. More than half relate to potential obstruction of justice.

“What knowledge did you have of any outreach by your campaign, including by Paul Manafort, to Russia about potential assistance to the campaign?” is one of the more dramatic questions published by the Times.

The pointed reference to Manafort breaks tantalising new ground, since there was no previous evidence linking him to outreach to Moscow. Benjamin Wittes, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution thinktank in Washington, tweeted: “This is very interesting – strong evidence that there are still collusion threads that are not yet public.”

Manafort and his deputy, Rick Gates, pleaded not guilty last October to a 12-count indictment accusing them of conspiring to defraud the US by laundering $30m from their work for a Russia-friendly political party in Ukraine.

Special Session to Be Called, Considering First Impeachment of a Governor in the State

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. Members of the Missouri legislature have acted to schedule a special session for the first time in the state’s history, with the purpose of considering disciplinary actions against their governor. If the result ends with impeachment, it would be another first for the “Show-Me” state.

Republicans run both the House and Senate in Missouri, making the move noteworthy as many members have called for the resignation of GOP Governor Eric Greitens.

Greitens is in the midst of three investigations, facing two felony counts: one for the alleged blackmail of a former mistress, and another for the alleged use of his former non-profit’s donor list for campaign solicitations . . .

In announcing the decision to call the special session, Missouri House Speaker Todd Richardson said, “This path is not the one that I would have chosen for Missourians or my colleagues. I have hoped from the beginning of this process that the committee would find no wrongdoing so we could bring this issue to a close…unfortunately, this is where the facts led.” . . .

Proceedings are scheduled to commence on May 18, now that the General Assembly has collected (and surpassed) the required three-quarters of the signatures needed from members to call the special session. In the past, special sessions have only been called by the governor. (Read more from “Special Session to Be Called, Considering First Impeachment of a Governor in the State” HERE)

Missouri Lawmakers Seeking Special Session for Impeachment Proceedings Against Greitens

By CNN. Missouri House and Senate leaders announced Thursday night that they have gathered enough support from lawmakers to call the state legislature into a special session for impeachment proceedings against Gov. Eric Greitens.

The announcement follows a series of dire developments for Greitens, a former Republican rising star, including two felony charges: one stemming from a photo he allegedly took of a woman with whom he had an affair and another relating to his campaign’s alleged procurement of a nonprofit donor list without the charity’s knowledge.

But the decision by state lawmakers to consider impeaching the governor adds a new layer to Greitens’ woes given that the Statehouse is firmly controlled by his own party.

“This path is not the one that I would have chosen for Missourians or my colleagues,” said Missouri House Speaker Todd Richardson, a Republican. “I have hoped from the beginning of this process that the committee would find no wrongdoing so we could bring this issue to a close. … Unfortunately, this is where the facts led.” (Read more from “Missouri Lawmakers Seeking Special Session for Impeachment Proceedings Against Greitens” HERE)

Outrageous: ‘Spokesman for Press’ Used Black Racial Slur to Describe Sarah Huckabee

/0 Comments/in , , /by

As to whether that’s a good thing for Michelle Wolf, probably not. The latest B-teamer on “The Daily Show” to host the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, Wolf managed to alienate pretty much everyone in the room with her bullying of White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the administration’s representative to the annual debacle.

However, while most of the criticism focused on the fact that Wolf decided it was cute to mock Sanders’ looks, few seemed to focus on the fact she decided to use a racial slur in her act.

“I actually really like Sarah. I think she’s very resourceful,” Wolf said. “She burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smoky eye. Maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s lies. It’s probably lies.”

“I’m never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders, you know?” she continued.

“Is it Sarah Sanders? Is it Sarah Huckabee Sander? Is it Cousin Huckabee? Is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders? Like, what is Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? I know — Aunt Coulter.”

Miami Toddler School Linked to Clinton Affiliated Nxivm Cult Shut down by State

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Miami New Times. In 2015, Raquel Perera, wife of 17-time Latin Grammy winner Alejandro Sanz, debuted a school called the Rainbow Cultural Garden in posh midtown Miami. Speaking to Univision, Perera bragged that by immersing toddlers in as many as seven languages at once, the school would revolutionize teaching. Univision credited a New York guru named Keith Raniere with developing the unusual plan.

Fast-forward nearly three years, and Raniere has now been outed as the leader of an alleged sex cult called NXIVM, which is accused of blackmailing women and branding them with flaming-hot irons. Last month, Raniere was arrested by the FBI on sex-trafficking charges; an Albany home tied to the Rainbow Cultural Garden has been raided by the feds, while British authorities are investigating a Rainbow-affiliated school in London.

Now the State of Florida has ordered the midtown Miami school to shut down immediately after New Times brought the facility to the state’s attention. Florida officials say the school was not currently licensed to operate.

“[The Department of Children and Families] has no tolerance for any activities that put children at risk, including operating an unlicensed child-care facility,” David Frady, a spokesperson for the department, said Thursday. “DCF initiated a child protective investigation and ordered the facility to immediately cease operations this afternoon.”

Neither Perera nor Sanz responded to messages from New Times this week. But through a spokesperson, the school says that it is now owned by a woman named Patricia Pietra and that Perera is no longer affiliated with Rainbow Cultural Garden Miami.

Actress: Allison Mack Used Feminism to ‘Lure’ Me into Her Sex Cult Nxivm

By The Daily Beast. On Thursday morning, actress Samia Shoaib went on Megyn Kelly TODAY to share her experience of being wooed by top NXIVM recruiter Allison Mack. Shoaib’s story comes in the wake of Mack’s indictment, alongside alleged sex cult leader Keith Raniere, on charges of sex trafficking conspiracy, sex trafficking, and conspiracy to commit forced labor. Mack was released on a $5 million bond on Tuesday to electronically monitored house arrest.

The news that an ex-Smallville actress is being charged as a sex cult second-in-command has shed new light on old tweets, in which Mack appears to be appealing to actresses and influencers on behalf of her unique cause. Mack targeted high-profile women like Emma Watson—she @’d the A-lister multiple times, at one point writing, “I’m a fellow actress like yourself & involved in an amazing women’s movement I think you’d dig. I’d love to chat if you’re open.” . . .

Samia Shoaib told Page Six on Saturday that Mack targeted her after the two met at a 2013 NBC audition. Shoaib, who appeared in The Sixth Sense and Sex and the City, described Mack as “fragile and gaunt,” but admitted, “I wish I could tell you alarm bells went off, but they really didn’t. She was a very sweet girl.”

Shoaib went into more detail on Thursday, describing Mack’s attempts to recruit her to JNess, the NXIVM women’s group that Mack raved about on her personal website and in video testimonials. Shoaib told Megyn Kelly that, within days of meeting Mack, the Smallville actress had sent her “dozens of emails” and talked up her women’s movement. Mack also put Shoaib on an email list through which she received various invitations, including one to a 2015 gathering that billed Mack as a speaker and “leader of JNess.” (Read more from “Actress: Allison Mack Used Feminism to ‘Lure’ Me into Her Sex Cult Nxivm” HERE)

Finally: Miami Herald Sues for Deep State Records on Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and His Billionaire Co-Conspirators

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .“Julie Brown, investigative journalist for the Miami Herald (“Julie Brown” and together with Miami Herald, the “Intervenors”), respectfully submit this memorandum of law in support of their motion to intervene and unseal all of the documents in the above-captioned action that have been filed under seal or redacted,” says a legal brief filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

. . .

“These judicial documents are germane to the Miami Herald’s ongoing coverage of dozens of underage minors who were victims of Jeffrey Epstein, the South Florida financier who pleaded guilty in 2008 to solicitation of minors for prostitution and was suspected of involvement in a larger sex-trafficking organization,” the motion says.

Jeffrey Epstein, a retired billionaire financier, served 13 months in jail after pleading guilty to one count of soliciting sex from an underage girl. At the time, there were more than 14 accusations from underage women that Epstein had had inappropriate relationships with them.

The story only exploded from there. Epstein was accused of romps with underage girls on his private jet, known as the “Lolita Express.” Bill Clinton has flown on the plane at least 24 times, once to Africa for a Clinton Foundation outing. Epstein is said to have placed hidden cameras in his plane and home in order to film and blackmail important people having sex with minors . . .

Two female associates of Epstein have been accused of acting as a pimp for him, procuring and grooming young girls to be his sex slaves. Neither of the women have been criminally charged, though one, Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of late media mogul Robert Maxwell, was recently settled a suit levied against her by one of Epstein’s former “slaves.” (Read more from “Finally: Miami Herald Sues for Deep State Records on Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and His Billionaire Co-Conspirators” HERE)

Trump to Pull Feds out of K-12 Education

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Washington Times. President Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to start pulling the federal government out of K-12 education, following through on a campaign promise to return school control to state and local officials.

The order, dubbed the “Education Federalism Executive Order,” will launch a 300-day review of Obama-era regulations and guidance for school districts and directs Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to modify or repeal measures she deems an overreach by the federal government.

“For too long the government has imposed its will on state and local governments. The result has been education that spends more and achieves far, far, far less,” Mr. Trump said. “My administration has been working to reverse this federal power grab and give power back to families, cities [and] states — give power back to localities.”

He said that previous administrations had increasingly forced schools to comply with “whims and dictates” from Washington, but his administration would break the trend.

“We know local communities know it best and do it best,” said Mr. Trump, who was joined by several Republican governors for the signing. “The time has come to empower teachers and parents to make the decisions that help their students achieve success.” (Read more from “Trump to Pull Feds out of K-12 Education” HERE)

Trump Order Seeks to Limit Federal Role in K-12 Education

By The Boston Globe. . .Trump is giving Education Secretary Betsy DeVos just short of a year — 300 days — to identify areas where Washington has overstepped its legal authority in education, and modify and repeal regulations and guidance from her department, if necessary. A report will be returned to the White House and eventually made public, officials said. (Read more from “Trump Order Seeks to Limit Federal Role in K-12 Education” HERE)

Mass Grave of at Least 140 Children Discovered, Apparent Victims of Ritualistic Child Sacrifice

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Archaeologists have unearthed the remains of more than 140 children on the northern coast of Peru in what appears to have been the largest instance of mass child sacrifice in the Americas — if not the entire world, according to an exclusive report from National Geographic.

The macabre discovery was made on a low bluff just a thousand feet from the Pacific Ocean, amid cinder-block residential compounds in La Libertad outside Trujillo, Peru’s third-largest city. It’s estimated that the children — and 200 young llamas — were sacrificed about 550 years ago, when the area was home to the pre-Columbian Chimú civilization. The Chimú was the second-largest empire in Peru before Spanish colonization, next to the Incas, who were also known to sacrifice children during rituals.

Until now, the largest incident of mass child sacrifice was believed to have occurred in the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan — modern-day Mexico City — where 42 children’s bodies had been discovered.

Ongoing scientific investigations into the Peru site, formally called Huanchaquito-Las Llamas, are being carried out by an international team funded by the National Geographic Society. The team is led by Gabriel Prieto of the National University of Trujillo and John Verano of Tulane University.
