Left-leaning ‘dark money’ network poured millions into Michigan elections - mlive.com
Image result for daek money"A well-funded left-leaning “dark money” network funneled nearly $9 million to Michigan activist causes in 2018.
Sixteen Thirty Fund, a nonprofit focused on promoting social welfare, supported an anti-gerrymandering ballot initiative and other Democrat-backed causes during the 2018 midterm elections, according to tax filings released by Politico last week.
“One of my major concerns with the structure of organizations like this is that there’s a significant lag in reporting,” Schuster said.
“This organization can have a broad influence on an election, but because they don’t have to file the documents that disclose their spending, then we don’t even know the extent of their influence until long after the election."
Politico’s analysis of Sixteen Thirty Fund’s spending in 2018 found it dedicated $141 million to more than 100 left-leaning causes. It also supported House Democrats in crucial elections across the country..."

Neumann is dyslexic, and reading is a challenge, so advisers quickly briefed him on the story’s most troubling details: vivid accounts of his heavy drinking, marijuana use, and habit of making grandiose pronouncements like wanting to be elected president of the world, live forever, and become humanity’s first trillionaire.

The Myth Of An Epidemic Of Racist Police Shootings Is Wrong, And Dangerous | The Daily Caller

The Myth Of An Epidemic Of Racist Police Shootings Is Wrong, And Dangerous | The Daily Caller:

Image result for flickr commons images Police lightsThe false narrative claims that individual police officers, motivated by overt racism or implicit racial bias, are rampantly targeting black Americans. Some go further to allege these shootings are proof of “systemic racism” within American law enforcement. Nonstop broadcast of the anti-police message by radical activists, Hollywood celebrities, professional athletes, politicians, academics, and most mainstream media outlets have made this myth pervasive. The myth, and the powerful voices who perpetuate it, are rarely challenged — even by law enforcement leaders. The result has been fear, distrust, hatred of the police, and a breakdown of the rule of law.

"Last year, Daniel Zaroes Brito, former Legislative Assistant to U.S. Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ), attacked a man who was wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat and waving a sign that read, "Vote Jobs, Not Mobs–Vote Republican."
The victim, Tucson resident Jonathan Sparks, suffered serious injuries in the assault.
Brito has now been sentenced to 12 days in the Pima County jail and three years probation.
"The assailant had jumped on to my ankle from behind," Sparks explained last November.
"So I, knowing my ankle was broken into four pieces, turned around to grab and take the hat back and my hands latched on to the hat."
...Sparks spent 20 hours in the hospital and had to undergo surgery.
He mused that if the situation had been different - for instance, if he had been a black man or if he had been waving "a rainbow flag," there would be "a sea of reporters" on the scene..."

What if political parties need only to lobby members of the Electoral College to vote for a certain candidate, instead of accepting the voters' choice?
A ruling by the 10th Circuit Court in favor of a "faithless elector" who did not abide by Colorado law and vote for the candidate chosen by the majority in his state has been appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
A friend-of-the-court brief filed by the Bopp Law Firm on behalf of the American Uniform Law Commission argues for overturning the ruling.

An Antifa Member Tries to Block a Car and Assault Someone, It Doesn't Go Well (Seriously)

An Antifa Member Tries to Block a Car and Assault Someone, It Doesn't Go Well (Seriously)
"The tactic of protestors, specially those tied to Antifa and the climate change movement, blocking roadways is becoming more and more common. 
...Normal people with jobs and responsibilities are getting tired of it. 
...Yesterday, a video surfaced of an Antifa protestor trying to block an SUV. The protestor has some kind of weapon in his hand (which you’ll see later clearly) an is wearing a black mask and backup (the typical getup).
Then this happens.
(WARNING: Language and fist fighting in the video)
Antifa/Extinction Rebellion protester tries to block a street and then starts vandalizing a man's SUV.
The man loses it and it doesn't end well for the protester.
Normal hardworking people have had enough of these left-wing virtue-signalling eco-terrorists


Embedded video
..The broader point here is that this has to stop. People can have their political issues and believe deeply in them. 
That doesn’t give them a right to block roads and attempt to assault people. 
...This stuff just needs to stop. 
We can’t co-exist if people can’t have basic respect for other’s space, time, and livelihoods."
