Retired U.S. Army Colonel Charged Bribing Haiti Officials – Connected to the Clintons - DC Dirty Laundry

Retired U.S. Army Colonel Charged Bribing Haiti Officials – Connected to the Clintons - DC Dirty Laundry
The Haiti Swamp and D.C. Swamp Merge in this head-scratching game of Clue.
This indictment from 2017 may have snuck past many people, but it most definitely requires everyone’s attention. 
This is not a court case about one man and corrupt foreign officials. 
The scope of this is staggering, and everyone should be following this court case closely. 
This is a powerful web of corrupt politicians, civilians, foreign officials, and rivaling families from the Haiti swamp straight to the D.C. swamp. 
This is a story you are going to want to read all the way to the end!
THE FACTS:
1) On August 28, 2017 A criminal complaint was filed against Joseph Baptiste in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, with an attached affidavit from Special Agent Garett Trombly. 
Also on August 28th a Government’s motion to seal was filed, entered and terminated.
2) On August 29, 2017 the Department of Justice put out a press release stating: Retired U.S. Army Colonel Charged with Conspiring to Bribe Senior Officials of The Republic of Haiti., Joseph Baptiste was arrested, and a notice of hearing for initial appearance was set for September 7th.
3) On September 7th a secured bond was set for $250,000.00.
4) On October 4, 2017 the Department of Justice put out a press release stating: Retired U.S. Army Colonel Indicted for Conspiring to Bribe Senior Government Officials of the Republic of Haiti. This is the 15-page indictment.
5) As of April 4, 2018 it is still in the “Status” stage, and the next court date has been set for April 24, 2018. However, within this mostly insignificant transcript of United States of America v. Joseph Baptiste, there was one interesting little nugget that the honorable judge says is “par for the course”....
...CLINTON CONNECTION: The telecommunications company he is referring to is Digicel – the company involving Dennis O’Brien (Clinton’s lap dog) and the Clintons. 
My source has previously confirmed to me that they continue to receive monthly kickbacks on this.

Rich libs want tax increases for the rest of us-----Why cheaper gas prices could mean trouble for roads, climate

Why cheaper gas prices could mean trouble for roads, climate:
"Gas prices have dropped below $2 a gallon for unleaded regular in Michigan and a lot of people are happy about that.
But more than a few people also fret over what cheap gas means for our roads and our climate. Inexpensive fuel means more driving and thus more stress on our already-battered roads. 
And cheaper fuel translates into more pollution as motorists take to the roads.
...So what to do about it? 
One obvious idea that suggests itself is to raise the gas tax. 
That would immediately make gas more expensive at the pump and, according to Econ 101, would reduce the amount of driving we all do..."

How Democrats Teach Immigrants to Be Criminals | Roger L. Simon

How Democrats Teach Immigrants to Be Criminals | Roger L. Simon:

In turning a blind eye or taking a blas attitude to illegal immigration, Democrats are actually encouraging or even teaching these immigrants to be criminals, that crime pays.
Don't believe me.  Believe Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut. After all, it was Blumenthal who was scholarly enough to remind us at the Kavanaugh hearings of the importance of that apothegm of Roman law "falsus in uno falsus in omnibus" (false in one thing, false in everything).
It's no great stretch to say that by allowing people to enter our country "undocumented" (i. e. break the law), Democrats are simply telling them the laws of our country don't really count.  They are to be winked at or broken.

UAW Black Lake resort bleeds millions, plans lavish cabin

UAW Black Lake resort bleeds millions, plans lavish cabin
"At its remote, 1,000-acre resort in northern Lower Michigan, the UAW is building an opulent cottage for former President Dennis Williams.
But the Black Lake Conference Center near Onaway, subsidized by interest from the union's strike fund, is not a moneymaker for the UAW.
Black Lake has bled tens of millions of dollars over the years, and according to tax filings, owes the UAW more than $61 million.
...Now, amid a federal criminal investigation over misuse of millions of dollars from the UAW-Chrysler National Training Center, the union's practice of providing cottages for former presidents to use faces scrutiny and criticism..."

Women's March Imploding: ‘Not All Women Have Female Parts':

The main event for the second anti-Trump Women’s March in Washington, DC, is still on, but cancellations of “sister” marches continue to pile up amid charges that the leadership is anti-Semitic.
So far, marches are canceled in Chicago, New Orleans, Washington state, and California, with the latter now defending itself after claiming one of the reasons it halted the event was too many white people were involved.

No Sharia in America

No Sharia in America:
"Every liberal media outlet is celebrating the election of two Muslim women to Congress -- Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. Since they both wear the traditional hijab, Nancy Pelosi will move to repeal a 180-year rule prohibiting head coverings on the floor of Congress.
...A CNN anchor suggested two years ago that all American women wear the hijab in solidarity with Muslim women against a Trump presidency.
...It is clear that Ilhan Omar is an America-hating leftist who is using her religion to win sympathy as a victim.
Muslims have not been victims of Americans. 
It is the other way around..."
