A conservative group filed a 21-count Federal Election Commission (FEC) complaint against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Wednesday alleging that her unreported affiliation with Justice Democrats PAC during her 2018 primary campaign violated campaign finance laws.
The New York Democrat and her chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, held legal control over Justice Democrats at the same time the political action committee was playing a key role in supporting her campaign, The Daily Caller News Foundation revealed in March.

Heartburn Gave My Dad Cancer. What About the Rest of Us?

Esophageal cancer related to chronic acid reflux is among the fastest-growing cancers in the U.S. Diet and weight are likely culprits, but what else?

"...As I approach the age at which my father died, I fear the thing that got him will get me. 
That’s because I, too, suffer from acid reflux — and so do many other Americans.
...he was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. 
See the source imageAs a last-ditch effort, my father enrolled in a Phase I clinical trial...
...Three months later, he was dead. He was 62.
...The doctors attributed his cancer — adenocarcinoma, which usually occurs in the lower portion of the esophagus — to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) — basically, chronic heartburn. but starting in 1997, American esophageal cancer patients, on average, became much more likely to be diagnosed with adenocarcinoma, which is associated with GERD. 
In fact, according to the National Cancer Institute, esophageal adenocarcinoma is one of the fastest-growing cancers in the country
In 1973, just 3 people in a million had adenocarcinoma in the U.S. 
In 2014, that rate was 26 people per million, representing an increase of more than 600 percent..."

Mohawked lib brags about yelling, chasing elderly man in MAGA hat out of Starbucks, but karma arrives swifty Conservative News Today

"...in a Palo Alto, Calif., Starbucks, where a woman with an affinity for Mohawks took to Facebook to boast about confronting an elderly man wearing a MAGA hat.
...Calling the man a “freak,” the post under the account Parker Mankey declared that he “will never forget me and will think seriously about wearing that hat in my town ever again.”
“I yelled at him. 
Called the entire Starbucks to order and yelled at him more about how it is not ok to hate brown people,” she said. 
“He threatened to call the cops. I left after yelling at him some more.”
Mankey, a progressive Democrat, explained that she verbally attacked the elderly man a second time
“I went back in and yelled that I had changed my mind and wanted him to call the police because I wanted to know his name, where he lived, his wife’s name, and where his kids went to school,” the Facebook post claimed.

"If you ignore Nazis, they will not go away. We need to fight them."—Parker Mankey, self-described "punk rock soccer mom" from Palo Alto #SF pic.twitter.com/SYlYJfbEhC
She also said she called on other white people to denounce the man, explaining that it was their “duty.”
But, alas, no one joined in on the lunatic tongue-lashing, to the dismay of the liberal.
The account appears to have been taken down, but here is a screen shot of the post:

And to be clear, Mankey was out to doxx the man.


In the end, it was Mankey would found herself unemployed because of her antics.
She was an accountant for Gryphon Stringed Instruments, a music store that has been in Ventura for more than 40 years, according to Palo Alto Online.
The company posted the following message on it’s Facebook page on Tuesday:
“With regard to the aforementioned incident on 4/1/19; the employee in question has been terminated
Gryphon does not believe anyone should be harassed or subject to hate speech no matter their beliefs.”

"Anthony Banbury, an american and a former assistant U.N. secretary general, wrote an op-ed for NY Times explaining why he resigned his job....
“If you locked a team of evil geniuses in a laboratory, they could not design a bureaucracy so maddeningly complex, requiring so much effort but in the end incapable of delivering the intended result
The system is a black hole into which disappear countless tax dollars and human aspirations, never to be seen again.”
Bret Stephens, a columnist at NY Times wrote that: 
“The U.N. adopted what were supposed to be landmark reforms more than a decade ago. 
Yet the mismanagement, corruption, abuses and moral perversities remain. 
  • Iran sits on the executive board of the Commission on the Status of Women. 
  • The Syrian regime is represented on the U.N.’s Special Committee on Decolonization, dedicated to “respect for self-determination of all peoples.” 
  • In October, Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe was named a good-will ambassador by the World Health Organization, until an outcry forced the director general to think better of it.”..."

A nonprofit group partially funded by billionaire activist George Soros paid firms tied to Fusion GPS and dossier author Christopher Steele more than $3.8 million in 2017 to provide research and analysis to “government entities,” according to IRS filings.
The payments made by The Democracy Integrity Project are more than three times what the DNC and the Clinton campaign paid Fusion GPS and Steele during the 2016 presidential campaign to investigate Donald Trump’s possible ties to Russia.

Dems Have Vastly More to Fear from Full Mueller Report than GOP (UPDATED) | Roger L. Simon

Dems Have Vastly More to Fear from Full Mueller Report than GOP (UPDATED) | Roger L. Simon
"Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler is huffing and puffing away about his committee's subpoena-in-waiting lest Attorney General William Barr not be sufficiently forthcoming about the details of the Mueller Report.
“But if we cannot reach an accommodation, then we will have no choice but to issue subpoenas for these materials,” Nadler warned. "And if the department still refuses, then it should be up to a judge — not the president or his political appointee — to decide whether or not it is appropriate for the committee to review the complete record.”
Methinks the chairman doth protest too much. 
In other words, it's all a charade for the faithful. 
He doesn't really want to do anything. 
Likely Nadler is secretly praying Barr redacts the whole damn thing or ties things up in the courts for long enough for the investigation to disappear at least somewhat down the memory hole.
...No, the Republicans have little to fear. 
As Chairman Mao would put it, let a hundred Mueller reports bloom.
UPDATE: I see the NYTimes has made its latest salvo against Trump in re: Mueller. 
As almost always with the paper, the article relies on anonymous sources, just as did in its now discredited Pulitzer Prize reporting on the subject. 
See the source imageAt question of course is whether Trump "obstructed" justice in a crime it is now admitted never happened. 
The Kafkaesque nature of this accusation is obvious. 
It's hard to imagine Donald Trump, of all people, as Joseph K., but those are times in which we live.  
Remember Trump complaining loudly a couple of years ago that he was "wiretapped" and the media uniformly dismissing him as paranoid? 
Kafka indeed."

Mark Morgan: Trump critics say there’s no emergency at the border. The numbers show they are wrong | Fox News:

Image result for flickr commons images Mark Morgan Border PatrolIt gets worse. There is another false narrative which continues to gain steam. It goes like this: “But the numbers of illegal immigrants are way down so it’s not a crisis.” Any student who has taken a basic statistics course knows you can manipulate raw numbers to support just about any position on either side of the aisle. It’s essential to look at the context behind the numbers to evaluate their true meaning. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, there were more than 1.5 million apprehensions at the border. These are the raw numbers the uninformed politicians and pundits use to disparage the administration’s position. What they don’t tell you is the overwhelming majority were Mexican adults, of which 90 percent were deported, often within hours of being apprehended. Additionally, a third of those apprehended were repeat offenders, so the realistic number of migrant apprehensions was well below what’s reflected.

"Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance spent nearly $250,000 over the past five years from a state asset forfeiture fund on fine dining, first-class airfare, and luxurious hotels, according to public records obtained by The City, a nonprofit news outlet in New York City.

Things Get Awkward When Tucker Asks Mexican Official Why Mexico Won’t Let Central Americans Stay | The Daily Caller

Things Get Awkward When Tucker Asks Mexican Official Why Mexico Won’t Let Central Americans Stay | The Daily Caller
"Things got awkward fast when Tucker Carlson asked a Mexican official why Central Americans migrating through Mexico shouldn’t be allowed to remain there.
Speaking with Guanajuato Secretary of Migration Juan Hernandez on Wednesday night’s edition of “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” the Fox News host began by asking why Hernandez’s own words from the past wouldn’t constitute a “hostile act” against the United States.
WATCH:
“I want to read three quotes from a Mexican government official, and these are direct quotes,” Carlson said. 

  • “‘We are betting Mexican-Americans will think ‘Mexico first,’ even unto the seventh generation. 
  • Mexican immigrants to the United States are going to keep one foot in Mexico. They are not going to assimilate in the sense of not being Mexican,’ and 
  • final quote, ‘We recognize the Mexican population is 100 million in Mexico and 23 million who live in the United States. We are a united nation.'”

“Those quotes are from you,” Carlson told Hernandez. 
“And I wonder if a government takes that position, that it’s sending foreign nationals to your country. 
That is a hostile act. 
So why are we sending money to a country committing hostile acts against us?”
“No, it’s not, my friend, no, no it’s not a hostile act at all,” Hernandez said..."

U.S. Was Closer To Coup D'Etat Than Ever Before

U.S. Was Closer To Coup D'Etat Than Ever Before
"...The Russian-collusion argument was always an absurd, a practically insane proposition.
See the source image...The entire collusion claim was a political smear funded by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign, and all of those just mentioned as well as Mrs. Clinton, former attorney general Loretta Lynch, her deputy Sally Yates, others who made false FISA-warrant applications, and a large group of smaller fry, are up to their eyeballs in criminal abuse of high offices and betrayal of the nation’s trust.
...The president and his family have endured merciless torment by the intellectually corrupt national press and the lawless opposition.
...And the ringleaders in confecting this monstrous aggregation of defamatory lies should be legally punished, with the due process they tried to deny the nation’s leader.
Attempts to drive a president from office on the basis of allegations of betrayal of the country that they knew to be false is as close as the United States has ever been to an attempted coup d’état. 
It is time for the legal system, which has ground slowly to a just verdict, to do the same to those responsible for this disgraceful episode.
This must never happen again; not in America."

Virginia Governor Who Supported Infanticide Signs Bill to make Animal Cruelty a Felony | LifeNews.com

Virginia Governor Who Supported Infanticide Signs Bill to make Animal Cruelty a Felony | LifeNews.com:

  • Virginia Governor Ralph Northam has a clear moral disconnect.

"Earlier this year, Governor Northam came under massive national criticism for appearing on a radio show and supporting infanticide.
Image result for baby Infanticide During his interview he advocated for merely keeping babies comfortable as parents leave them to die shortly after birth.
Northam defended a radical pro-abortion bill that would have allowed unborn babies to be aborted up to the point when a woman is about to give birth. 
The governor not only defended the legislation, but he also said doctors and women could have a discussion about whether to leave a disabled newborn baby to die.
Later, Northam refused to disavow his comments when he endorsed infanticide, saying: “I don’t have any regrets.”
While protecting newborn babies who survive abortions is apparently too much for Northam to support, a law against animal cruelty isn’t.
Today he signed a new bill into law that would make animal cruelty a felony in the commonwealth."
