Luis Arroyo, Chicago Democrat, accused of bribe for bill support - Washington Times:
An Illinois state lawmaker bribed a legislative colleague with an offer of $2,500 a month in exchange for the state senator’s support of sweepstakes-related legislation, according to a federal complaint unsealed on Monday.
Rep. Luis Arroyo, 65, made the offer on Aug. 2 and handed over an initial check on Aug. 22 for the unidentified lawmaker’s backing of the legislation in the Illinois Senate, the complaint says.
The Chicago Democrat’s alleged willingness to arrange regular payments for legislative support stands out even in a state with a history of brazen public corruption.

GUILFOYLE: Trump Deserves More Love From The Democratic Party For Killing Al-Baghdadi | The Daily Caller
GUILFOYLE: Trump Deserves More Love From The Democratic Party For Killing Al-Baghdadi | The Daily Caller:
The news of a raid against an ISIS compound in Syria — which resulted in the death of the terrorist group’s leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi — and the subsequent operations to take out other top ISIS leaders were not well received by many Democrats in Washington. Instead of praising the president for neutralizing the biggest terrorist mastermind of the decade, Democratic politicians sought to attack President Trump and his effective foreign policy.
Firefighters save flag during 2-alarm blaze, shaming millionaire athletes who won't bother standing to honor it - WND
Firefighters save flag during 2-alarm blaze, shaming millionaire athletes who won't bother standing to honor it - WND:
Firefighters aren't millionaires. They aren't household names. They don't sign shoe contracts or get feted by the nation when they retire.
All they do is risk their lives to keep us safe. They save our lives on occasion. And, in Washougal, Washington, two of them saved an American flag during a two-alarm blaze last week.
Certainly puts anthem-kneelers to shame, doesn't it?

FBI extends voting security push, LA court hacker goes down, and more D-Link failures • The Register
"...FBI refreshes voting security push
Last year, the FBI kicked off Protected Voices, a campaign to improve voting security at the state and local level.
The effort was just expanded for the coming year with new resources and materials, including tutorials for securing polling places.
"It is not the general practice of the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division to go to the public with information," said Nikki Floris, deputy assistant director.
"But this is a threat that not only concerns every American, it involves every American. These attacks on our elections and these efforts by foreign adversaries to influence our opinions and sow divisions within this country touch us all."...

Brits Belted: UK’s Subsidised Wind Power Obsession Leaves 3,000,000 Households Suffering Energy Poverty – STOP THESE THINGS
Brits Belted: UK’s Subsidised Wind Power Obsession Leaves 3,000,000 Households Suffering Energy Poverty – STOP THESE THINGS"Millions of British households face another bitter winter, unable to meet their rocketing power bills.
An obsession with chaotically intermittent wind power (both off and onshore) has sent power prices spiralling.
And, adding to the misery, the annual cost of renewable energy subsidies, Feed in Tariffs, fixed contract prices for wind and solar etc to British households will soon reach £12,000,000,000.
The current cost is already nudging £10,000,000,000.
While their parliamentarians squabble about the terms on which Britain will sever its ties with Europe, ordinary Brits are fretting about how they might light and heat their homes as temperatures plummet.
Heading into winter, some 3,000,000 households are already in “energy debt” and collectively owe nearly £417,000,000 to their suppliers..."

Judge OKs attacks on major Christian ministry as 'hate group' - WND
Judge OKs attacks on major Christian ministry as 'hate group' - WND:
Judge Myron H. Thompson found that the definitions of "hate group" vary so widely that the slam is protected by the First Amendment, even if it causes harm.
The ruling came in a case brought by D. James Kennedy Ministries against SPLC, which routinely labels anyone who disagrees with its pro-transgender, pro-homosexual, pro-abortion agenda as a hater or "hate group."
In fact, the ministry, which is appealing the ruling, had been prevented from participating in an online donation program because of the label.
But "the term 'hate group,'" Thompson wrote, "has no single, commonly understood meaning."

Minneapolis: Somali Gangs Are Claiming Territory & Killing To Defend It � Sons of Liberty Media
Minneapolis: Somali Gangs Are Claiming Territory & Killing To Defend It � Sons of Liberty Media"We’ve brought you several stories of the Muslim colonization of America from Florida to Maine to Michigan and Minnesota.
Many of those settling into Islamic communities in America have anything in mind but assimilation.
The latest evidence of this comes from Minneapolis, Minnesota where Somali gangs are now claiming territory and a young Somali has now gunned down another young man.
First, the story comes via a variety of local outlets, but not one mainstream outlet reported on this that I could find.
KARE11 reports:
Mahad Jama Ali, 18, of Minneapolis, has been charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of 25-year-old Mustafa Ali, of Minneapolis, according to the Attorney’s Office.
Tore from Loomered.com comments on what is causing this to occur.
“Immediately following the rapid intake and resettling of Somalian refugees, crime in Minneapolis spiked,” Tore wrote.
...The Somali gang problem is incredible and the leadership in Minneapolis and Minnesota in general is allowing it to grow and fester.
...Why are we allowing them to bring their cultural wars to our backyards?...Read all.
Climate Stalinism: The Radical Left's Green Movement | Climate Dispatch
Climate Stalinism: The Radical Left's Green Movement | Climate Dispatch"The Left’s fixation on climate change is cloaked in scientism, deploying computer models to create the illusion of certainty.
Even more convinced of their role as planetary saviors, radical greens are increasingly intolerant of dissent or any questioning of their policy agenda.
They embrace a sort of “soft Stalinism,” driven by a determination to remake society, whether people want it or not—and their draconian views are penetrating the mainstream.
“Democracy,” a writer for Foreign Policy suggests, constitutes “the planet’s biggest enemy.”...

“It is past time to put aside all the political rhetoric and listen to the facts – and the fact is, people are being hurt and victimized every day because of jurisdictions that refuse to cooperate with ICE,” said Albence.

Bizarre Feminist "MENstruation" Commercial Shows Men and Boys Getting Their Periods
Bizarre Feminist "MENstruation" Commercial Shows Men and Boys Getting Their Periods
“MENstruation.”
It’s apparently a concept that the brand “Thinx” came up with as an ad for their line of period panties.
...The commercial, released earlier this month, starts with a boy telling his father that he’s gotten his period, and proceeds to put men in the place of women in various situations when their period starts, including a man rolling over while he’s sleeping and leaving a small bloodstain where he once was.
...The commercial ends with a swipe at men’s “discomfort” with periods.
“If we all had them, maybe we’d be more comfortable with them,” reads some text on the screen.
...the comments have been disabled for the video, signaling that reactions from viewers have been less than kind..."
