Angel Mom's Facebook Posts on Illegal Immigration Removed for 'Hate Speech'

Angel Mom's Facebook Posts on Illegal Immigration Removed for 'Hate Speech'
"Angel Mom Mary Ann Mendoza, who heads the Angel Families organization, has had her posts raising awareness about illegal immigrant crime removed from Facebook as “hate speech.”

Mendoza’s son, 32-year-old police officer Brandon Mendoza, was killed in May 2014 by a drunk illegal alien who was driving the wrong way down a highway in Mesa, Arizona.

This week, Mendoza had two of her Facebook posts from her personal page removed, with the tech platform claiming that she had violated the “Community Standards on hate speech.”

The posts raised awareness about illegal immigrant crime and its impact on Americans. 

One post simply directly quoted from a Breitbart News article about the suffering Angel Families have had to endure after losing loved ones to illegal immigration..."

Democrats Vote Unanimously to Allow Boys to Compete as Women in Sports

• The Democrats have opened a second battlefield in their war against women.

"...Of course, it will never be enacted into law and the Democrats never expected it would.

They just passed the bill so either the Senate or the president will kill it and Democrats will paint them as being against transgenders.


From The Daily Caller

The Democratically controlled House of Representatives voted Friday 236-173 in favor of the Equality Act, which would require schools to include male athletes who identify as transgender girls on female sports teams.

Eight Republicans crossed party lines to vote for the bill, which had unanimous Democratic support..."

Never trust Snopes!!-----Snopes Doesn't Fact Check New York Times on Kavanaugh Accusations

Snopes Doesn't Fact Check New York Times on Kavanaugh Accusations
"...A search for "Brett Kavanaugh" finds the most recent entry dated November 2018:

"The Snopes fact check acknowledged that the FBI investigation into the Kavanaugh matter stated unequivocally that "there is no corroboration of the allegations made by Dr. Ford or Ms. Ramirez." 

But that wasn't good enough for our moral, intellectual, and ethical betters at Snopes, who concluded: "The FBI’s conclusion allowed that the allegations against Kavanaugh might indeed have all been false, but it did not rule out the possibility that one or more of them might have been true." 

You remember how this works: Guilty until proven innocent if you're a Republican. 

File this under "factually true but inconvenient for Democrats."..."

New wind and solar installations are two to three times more expensive than existing generation sources. - Citizens' Task Force on Wind Power - Maine
"The Institute for Energy Research and the American Coalition for Clean Coal Energy released a new study evaluating the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) from new and existing generation resources.

This innovative study takes into account several important considerations that other reports do not when calculating LCOE. 

These include the imposed costs of wind and solar generation, as well as the costs of operating existing generation sources in addition to those of building and operating new plants. Including these considerations presents a fuller picture of the operating costs of wind, solar, coal, gas, nuclear, and hydroelectric sources.
The chart below shows that new wind and solar installations are two to three times more expensive than existing generation sources. 

“This study illustrates why foolish policies like the Green New Deal and 100% renewable mandates would harm our economy and significantly raise the cost of electricity for American households..."

Government healthcare-----Sinking Ship | Federal Medicare Fraud | Fraud of the Day

Sinking Ship | Federal Medicare Fraud | Fraud of the Day: Facebook Twitter
"...The former owner and medical director of a Baton Rouge, Louisiana pain management clinic was at the helm of a Medicare fraud billing scheme that stole approximately $255,000 from the government healthcare program.
...Today’s fraudster from Baton Rouge pleaded guilty to Medicare fraud.
...Instead of a prison sentence, the 56-year-old was placed on probation and ordered to pay more than $254,000 in restitution.
The 66-year-old doctor, who also previously pleaded guilty to healthcare fraud, received a sentence of 37 months in federal prison for causing nearly $516,000 in fraudulent claims to be filed over a decade.
...Further research revealed a Department of Defense press release that stated the co-owner of the pain clinic was convicted of healthcare fraud in a separate case involving $336,000 in illegal kickback payments.

It’s a Cult: NBC News Wants You to Confess Your Climate Sins.

"Do you ever get the feeling that climate change is a cult? Does it ever seem like its adherents are immune to reason as they vindictively lash out at anyone who questions their beliefs? Wouldn’t it be nice if they just left you alone and let you live your life?

Well, too bad. You live in 2019 and you use modern technology and conveniences. You eat food that actually tastes good. You’re guilty and you need to confess. Repent, sinner!

"In 2011, then-Czech President Vaclav Klaus noted:

“I’m convinced that after years of studying the phenomenon, global warming is not the real issue of temperature,” said Klaus, an economist by training. “That is the issue of a new ideology or a new religion. A religion of climate change or a religion of global warming. This is a religion which tells us that the people are responsible for the current, very small increase in temperatures. And they should be punished.”

Column: The latest smear against Justice Brett Kavanaugh part of left’s scorched-earth strategy - Chicago Tribune
"Just a few days before The New York Times and Democratic presidential candidates engaged in an outrageous smear of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh — a smear the newspaper was forced to amend and walk back — there was a gruesome discovery in a suburb south of Chicago.
Out in a garage in Crete, authorities found the remains of 2,246 babies on property owned by the late Indiana abortionist Dr. Ulrich Klopfer.
His family had been going through his possessions when they discovered the stuff of nightmares.
The Times’ Kavanaugh smear was deliciously exposed in a series of tweets by journalist Mollie Hemingway, senior writer for The Federalist.
The panic of the Times sucked up most of the prominent media/political oxygen over the weekend.
And if Klopfer’s demonic cache of human bodies wasn’t ignored, exactly, it was consigned to the far edge of things, where we keep our monstrosities at bay.
What, if anything, connects these seemingly unrelated events?
Abortion.
Abortion is what Klopfer engaged in, as did many others before him, including the infamous Kermit Gosnell, of Philadelphia, who snipped the spines of infants with scissors and kept his trophies and was sentenced to life in prison.
And abortion is what this smearing of Kavanaugh has always been about..."
