Americans were left stunned yesterday when a left-wing gunman attempted to assassinate Republican members of Congress in Alexandria, VA.

The gunman, James “Tom” Hodgkinson, opened fire and wounded 5 people, including Congressman Steve Scalise. The crazed gunman would have claimed more victims had it not been for the Capital Police who bravely returned fire and helped take the shooter down.
Shortly after receiving the news of the shooting, President Trump cancelled plans to celebrate his birthday and left to visit Rep Scalise in the hospital.

But what the President did after the hospital visit surprised everyone, especially the Secret Service!
“Despite being rushed to exit for security reasons, President Trump REFUSED to leave without stopping to shake the hands of EVERY SINGLE Capital Policeman and woman at the hospital.”

It’s being reported that he wanted to personally thank all of them for their service, no matter how long it took.

While at the hospital, Trump also met with Capitol Police officer Crystal Griner, who was shot in the ankle as she defended the GOP representatives and senators during the attack.

Trump later tweeted about his visit, praising Scalise as a real fighter and asking for prayers.
Most presidents would have waited a few days or just made a couple phone calls, but not Trump. He dropped everything and even put his safety in jeopardy to be there for the people he cares about.

Fred and Cindy Warmbier, in a conversation with Tucker Carlson, remarked that neither administration – Obama’s or Trump’s – had done much to reassure them that their son, Otto, would be released.

Otto Warmbier, arrested more than a year ago in North Korea for having stolen a poster from the wall of the hotel, was sentenced to 15 years hard labor.

What the Warmbiers didn’t know was that the moment Trump was sworn in, his office was already working to release all American prisoners from North Korea.

That’s the big difference between Trump and Obama:
While our former commander-in-chief busied himself with funneling billions of taxpayer money to Leftist causes, Trump cares far more about SAVING this country and its citizens.

MSN:

“Secretary of State Rex Tillerson says that North Korea has released Otto Warmbier, an American serving a 15-year prison term with hard labor for alleged anti-state acts.

Tillerson says that Warmbier is on his way back to the U.S. to be reunited with his family.
He says in a statement that the State Department secured Warmbier’s release at the direction of President Donald Trump. Tillerson says the State Department continues discussing three other detained Americans with North Korea.

The announcement comes as former NBA player Dennis Rodman is paying a return visit to North Korea.

Warmbier is a University of Virginia student from suburban Cincinnati. He was sentenced in March 2016 after a televised tearful public confession to trying to steal a propaganda banner.”

Sadly, Otto returned to the U.S. in a coma, apparently suffering from an attack of botulism. The sleeping pill doctors gave him couldn’t revive him, so we pray for the young man’s recovery.

In the meantime, it appears that, had Obama acted more conclusively on Otto’s behalf, the poor young man might be in better health today.

The Obama administration had a “back channel” to communicate with Russian officials, according to a new report detailing Moscow’s efforts to delegitimize the U.S. presidential election results.

The news comes after Trump White House aide Jared Kushner was criticized for allegedly trying to open a back channel line of communications with Russian officials during the transition last year.

Former intelligence officials called Kushner’s alleged back channel “dangerous,” but now Bloomberg reports the Obama administration had its own back channel to Moscow.

The White House contacted the Kremlin on what Bloomberg described as a “modern-day red phone” after Russian operatives tried to infiltrate software and databases used by state election officials.

Bloomberg reports (bold is my own):

The scope and sophistication so concerned Obama administration officials that they took an unprecedented step — complaining directly to Moscow over a modern-day “red phone.” In October, two of the people said, the White House contacted the Kremlin on the back channel to offer detailed documents of what it said was Russia’s role in election meddling and to warn that the attacks risked setting off a broader conflict.
The “red phone” wasn’t literally a phone, but a secure messaging channel for ” urgent messages and documents,” according to Bloomberg. NBC News first reported on the red phone in December, noting the red phone has existed in various forms for the last 50 years or so.

In fact, the Obama administration said the red phone communications must have worked to keep Moscow from launching cyber attacks against election systems.

“Look at the results,” one Obama administration official told NBC in December. “There was nothing done on Election Day, so it must have worked.”

But that may have not been the case.

Bloomberg reported:

The White House provided evidence gathered on Russia’s hacking efforts and reasons why the U.S. considered it dangerously aggressive. Russia responded by asking for more information and providing assurances that it would look into the matter even as the hacking continued, according to the two people familiar with the response. “Last year, as we detected intrusions into websites managed by election officials around the country, the administration worked relentlessly to protect our election infrastructure,” said Eric Schultz, a spokesman for former President Barack Obama. “Given that our election systems are so decentralized, that effort meant working with Democratic and Republican election administrators from all across the country to bolster their cyber defenses.”
Bloomberg reported the cyber attacks “paint a worrisome picture for future elections” since the “newest portrayal of potentially deep vulnerabilities in the U.S.’s patchwork of voting technologies comes less than a week after former FBI Director James Comey warned Congress that Moscow isn’t done meddling.”

Rep. Steve Scalise is undergoing a third surgery after he was gunned down during a congressional baseball practice Wednesday.

According to Politico, doctors at the MedStar Washington Hospital Center started a third operation on the 51-year-old House majority whip Thursday morning. Scalise suffered severe blood loss and has received multiple transfusions after he was shot in the hip by James T. Hodgkinson, who opened fire on several lawmakers in Alexandria, Va.

The hospital said in an update Wednesday night that the Scalise remains in critical condition. He was shot in the left hip, the hospital said, and the bullet “traveled across his pelvis, fracturing bones, injuring internal organs and causing severe bleeding.”

President Trump visited Scalise at the hospital Wednesday night. He stayed for about half an hour, and spoke with Scalise’s wife Jennifer and Capitol Police officers while he was there.

Trump said Thursday that “it’s been much more difficult than people even thought at the time,” but that Scalise is a “great fighter.”

Out of the mouths of children sometimes spill the most bold and naked truths.

Our school systems have worked tirelessly to correct that problem, but it seems that kids just don’t always read the PC memos.

One such child, Mason, a young Conservative-in-the-making, had one such moment where a Hillary-supporting teacher saw his anti-Clinton T-shirt and asked him a pointed question.

The boy’s reply is lighting up social media right now, and for good reason.

Out of the mouths of children sometimes spill the most bold and naked truths.

Our school systems have worked tirelessly to correct that problem, but it seems that kids just don’t always read the PC memos.

One such child, Mason, a young Conservative-in-the-making, had one such moment where a Hillary-supporting teacher saw his anti-Clinton T-shirt and asked him a pointed question.

The boy’s reply is lighting up social media right now, and for good reason.

Yes I’m Right:

“The Benghazi fiasco and subsequent lie trail that Hillary Clinton has left in her wake is something I’m sure she wishes would just go away.

Luckily, we have patriots all across this great nation that will make sure that never happens.

A young man by the name of Mason wore his ‘Hillary for Prison 2016’ shirt to high school one day, which caught the attention of one of his liberal teachers.

According to his father’s proud Facebook post, it’s a pro-Hillary teacher whom Mason regularly talks politics with.

But during this particular exchange, the teacher got an unexpected, yet, totally epic response. His father sets the scene:
So…Mason wore his ‘Hillary for Prison 2016’ shirt to school today. One of his Clinton-supporting teachers whom he’s has political discussions with asked, ‘Did you wear that for me?’

His reply, ‘No, for Chris Stevens.’”

Christopher Stevens, of course, was the U.S. Ambassador to Libya that perished in Benghazi on Hillary Clinton’s watch.

This story originated from a Facebook post, but it’s since been taken down. We imagine that Mason and his family didn’t want the publicity, but to be honest, they SHOULD.”

All I can say is this kid is destined for great things. That answer would put to shame any modern Democrat in either the House or the Senate.

And no matter what Hillary does, she will never escape the Benghazi issue, and she will continue to face accusations and lawsuits because…well, the Crooked Clintons are aptly named.

We would like to think that fines and damages imposed at the conclusion of a trial would help the victims, as well as act as a deterrent to other perpetrators.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work that way.

For instance, Barack Obama comes along and suddenly, corruption springs up in our government, the evidence of which has been coming to light ever since Obama left office.

Now, a lawsuit has been filed to expose an alleged slush fund Obama set up under the auspices of the Department of Justice to funnel money from legal settlements to Leftist groups.

These groups likely wouldn’t have received funding from Congress, so it seems our former leader found a new way to grow his liberal agenda.

Via Judicial Watch:

“Judicial Watch announced today that it has filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice for records relating to an Obama administration policy of settling agency lawsuits against corporate defendants by requiring that the corporations make ‘donations’ to left-wing interest groups La Raza, the Urban League and the National Community Reinvestment Coalition.

Judicial Watch submitted its FOIA request in the aftermath of an extensive investigation by the House Judiciary and Financial Services Committee that found the Obama Department of Justice had ‘engaged in a pattern or practice of systematically subverting Congress’ budget authority by using settlements from financial institutions to funnel money to left-wing activist groups.
Here’s an example of Obama apparently attempting to exceed even the Clintons in the practice of corruption:

“While the policy was officially ended last week by Attorney General Jeff Sessions, questions remain about the groups that received money from settlements.

According to Investors Business Daily, in just one $17 billion settlement with Bank of America, the Obama administration funneled money to:

La Raza: A far-left Latino organization which is known for pressuring banks to give loans to low-income Hispanics.
National Community Reinvestment Coalition: One of the top lobbying groups supporting the Community Reinvestment Act, a 1977 piece of legislation that’s a favorite of the left
Operation Hope: A group from South Central in Los Angeles, it pressures banks to give “dignity loans” to individuals who would otherwise not qualify.
Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America: A group whose leader called himself a “bank terrorist,” something that’s apparently a lot more acceptable since the days of Patty Hearst.
So that’s $17 billion misdirected to leftist organizations. That’s a pretty good racket he has going there, and that’s just one example.

Fortunately, Judicial Watch is on the case, although it remains to be seen what sort of remedies for these offenses can be ordered, or whether Mr. Obama and his accomplices in the Justice Department will be held accountable for these offenses.

Yesterday the liberal’s hatred reached a fever pitch when a deranged Bernie Sanders supporter opened fire on a GOP baseball practice. The shooter, James T. Hodgkinson who was obsessed with Russian collusion conspiracy theories shot House Majority Whip, Republican Steve Scalise, and two Capitol Police. This piece of rat dung obviously filled his head with lies from the mainstream media. It only stands to reason that if one listens to CNN and MSNBC for any length of time you eventually will lose your mind. But, the real question is how did Hodgkinson know where to find the GOP yesterday? Well, it looks like Hodgkinson was given a tip by the liberal rag The New York Times.
We all know that the left has been in a constant state of panic ever since the election. These liberal idiots thought that Hillary Clinton would for sure win which would allow them to continue destroying America. However, instead of these “grown adults” accepting the results and moving on they have created a dangerous movement that has now turned potentially deadly. What is even more disgusting is that the mainstream media is to blame for this rage. If they would simply report the facts and not conjecture we would see less insanity.

Now, it has been discovered that The New York Times tipped off the deranged liberal shooter in an April article.
“When members of Congress practice in the early mornings in an Alexandria, Va., public park for their Congressional Baseball Game, plain clothes United States Capital Police are sitting there in a black S.U.V.”

Ok, I am sure many people will argue that The New York Times did not know that someone would shoot GOP members. But, let us be honest here for a moment. For the last several months the mainstream media has been fanning the flames of division. The pulse in America at this point is extremely volatile and could blow at any moment.
What did they think would happen?

Here is more from New York Post:

Hodgkinson had recently moved to Alexandria, his wife told ABC News.

A source close to the Hodgkinson family told The Post that Hodgkinson moved to the area in April — without ever telling his wife, daughter or grandson why.

“James had just packed up and moved out,” said the source, who last saw James’ daughter, Tasha, during a visit to Belleville, Ill., in April. “[His wife] Sue didn’t know what was going on or why.”

“I thought he was maybe gay or left for another woman. I mean, who gets up and just walks away after 30 or so years of marriage? It’s just crazy,” the source added.

The family friend, who requested anonymity in order to speak candidly about the situation, recounted several instances in which she and Hodgkinson had battled on Facebook over their conflicting political beliefs.

“I actually blocked him on Facebook, it was so bad,” the source said, recalling an instance in May when they got into a fight over a Facebook post by Hodgkinson’s wife about millennials and personal responsibility.

Hodgkinson had responded to the source’s comment with a Photoshopped picture of President Trump looking demented, accusing the president of behaving like an adolescent in office.

“This guy would not let up,” the source said.

Sarah Saldana would like you to know that Donald Trump has ruined the lives of millions of illegal aliens by enforcing U.S. Immigration Law and deleting yet another “successful” Obama Legacy mission.

And if you’re not listening, she’ll make you listen.

Who is Sarah Saldana?

She WAS one of 21 taxpayer-funded officials who were added to the Department of Homeland Security’s rolls in an effort to soothe illegal communities about “big, bad ICE.”

Saldana headed a task force that helped illegals combat evil government officials trying to deport them.

Then Trump arrived and opted to 86 the entire illegal-pacification operation and instead transfer all 21 officials to the VOICE program, which deals with Victims Of Immigration Crime Engagement.

That just ticked off Saldana who was sure that Hillary was going to sit upon her throne and declare all illegals pardoned.
According to Foreign Policy:

Saldaña maintains that before Trump’s election ICE was poised to greatly expand the outreach program and ‘remove the curtain’ from immigration enforcement activities.

Community relations officers were being trained to assuage fear in immigrant communities with facts about the agency’s priorities and activities.

Analysts estimate that roughly 11 million illegal aliens are living in the United States.

Roughly 8 million of the illegals hold jobs, which adds up to one job for each of the four million young Americans who turn 18 each year.

The illegals’ inclusion in the nation’s labor pool makes it harder for young Americans to get well-paid jobs, and annually transfers roughly $500 billion from employees to employers, according to George Borjas, a Harvard professor.”

Think of Obama’s Legacy as a sort of reverse bucket list:

For every item that Obama gave away one of his executive order pens, Trump ensures that two more are removed. By this time next year, Obama’s Legacy will be completely eradicated.

Recently a CNN reporter made the mistake of calling out the King of Twitter, President Trump himself, and instantly had to feel a giant sense of shame and regret for ever putting a finger to keyboard. Fans slammed Chris Cillizza in epic fashion and with quite the classic burn material-facts! I can only imagine the amount spent on burn cream. Why do these reporters assume they have a big enough following to disguise their lies?

Here is more from Angry Patriot Movement:

This CNN reporter is so entrenched in his liberal bubble that he honestly believes his station has never told a lie. CNN reporter Chris Cillizza made a huge mistake when he asked President Trump to name one story that was fake or incorrect on Twitter. President Trump’s supporters immediately offered Cillizza countless examples! (via Allen B West)

Cillizza is a man obsessed with hating President Trump. His Twitter account features multiple pictures of the president, and his Twitter bio features the following quote: “‘One of the dumber and least respected of the political pundits.’ — Donald Trump.”

Chris Cillizza proved President Trump right again. The CNN reporter set himself up to fail as his Twitter feed was inundated with examples of very fake news on CNN. There are hundreds of examples to choose from, but the recent coverage of Russian interference into the 2016 presidential election has been almost exclusively fake news.

For instance, CNN reported that former FBI Director James Comey never told President Trump that he was not under investigation. Comey testified under oath that he did so three times. CNN also reported that President Trump removed a statue of Martin Luther King Jr. from the Oval Office, even though it was merely blocked by guests posing for pictures. CNN wrongly accused Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin of foreclosing on a widow’s house who owed his bank $0.27. This lie was quickly caught and CNN refused to issue a retraction or correct the story demonizing President Trump’s appointee. However, one of CNN’s biggest lies came during the presidential election when CNN host Chris Cuomo warned his viewers that it is illegal to download the DNC emails released by WikiLeaks.
“Also interesting is, remember, it’s illegal to possess these stolen documents,” said Cuomo, lying through his teeth. “It’s different for the media, so everything you’re learning about this, you’re learning from us.” CNN is the poster child for “very fake news.” The network is almost single-handedly responsible for the low levels of trust in mainstream media. The only reason to tune into CNN is to learn the latest Democrat talking points and laugh at the supposedly nonpartisan network.

CNN seems to be on a roll with fake stories, cutting off feeds when the truth is about to come out, and general dismemberment of all things that journalism used to stand for. While Comey’s testimony wasn’t cut at all by the network, CNN sure was quick to do damage control when the questions about Hilary Clinton’s foundation was brought into focus at the Sessions hearing.

According to Patriot Beacon:

CNN cut away from the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday morning immediately after Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) raised concerns about Special Counsel Robert Mueller. Breitbart reported that Graham had just raised concerns about Special Counsel Robert Mueller hiring an attorney from the Clinton Foundation to help out with the probe into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election when the feed was cut. He was questioning Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who was sitting in for Attorney General Jeff Sessions, at the time.
Democrats are still accusing Trump of colluding with Russia in the election despite the fact that no evidence has actually emerged to support this. Here’s an excerpt of Graham’s exchange with Rosenstein:

Graham: Is giving political donations a reason to disqualify somebody for serving in the Special Counsel’s office?

Rosenstein: No, Senator, it is not a disqualification. It is not.

Graham: As a matter of fact, many states, the judges and prosecutors are actually elected. Donations are a part of that system, is that correct?

Rosenstein: Yes, that’s true.

Graham: Would it be a disqualification for somebody in the Special Counsel’s office who had represented Mrs. Clinton in the past to serve?

Rosenstein: You know, Senator, it would depend on facts and circumstances. As a general matter, I think the answer is no.

Graham: Isn’t that much closer to a conflict of interest?

Rosenstein: I don’t want to answer a hypothetical, Senator. Everybody needs to make a determination based on the facts and circumstances of the individual case.

Graham: How would you get it before the Special Counsel? What process could a member of the Senate use to inform the Special Counsel that you’d have a concern about hiring someone that represented Clinton?

Rosenstein: We have a process within the Department of Justice, Senator, so I would encourage you, if you have those concerns, to raise them with [former] Director Mueller or to raise them with me, and I’ll make sure —

Graham: So should I do it to you or to him?

Rosenstein: Well, you could do it to both.

Graham: Okay. That’s fair enough.

Rosenstein: And we have career —

Graham: And I don’t know if I’ll do that, but I’ve read some things that were — I don’t think donations are disqualifying at all, but if you represented the Clinton Foundation or Clinton herself, that would be disturbing to me, but I’ll take care of that.

CNN cut back to the studio soon after that even though Graham was still questioning Rosenstein.

For quite a long time, we’ve had Muslim terrorists living directly under our noses here in America as they hide behind organizations such as CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood, passing themselves off as “moderate Muslims.” Even though leaders of these “peaceful” groups can easily be traced to radical terror organizations, they’ve still managed to infiltrate our government for quite some time. But now it appears as though we have a brand new problem on our hands, after a Virginia Muslim who controls several terror groups was just discovered by intelligence officials. And what he had planned for America was nothing short of chilling.

Our prayers go out to Representative Steve Scalise (R-LA), his family, and his colleagues. Scalise is a good man, and we pray that he makes it through this tragic ordeal.

House Majority Whip Steve Scalise is in critical condition after being shot by a radical leftist at a congressional baseball practice yesterday. Representative Scalise sustained damage to internal organs and will require additional surgery, according to a statement released by MedStar Washington Hospital Center.

Rep. Scalise was one of four people shot early yesterday morning including congressional aide Zach Barth, former aide Matt Mika, and Special Agent David Bailey. Special Agent Crystal Griner was also injured but not shot.

The cowardly shooter has been identified as James T. Hodgkinson of Bellville, Illinois. Hodgkinson volunteered for the Bernie Sanders presidential nomination campaign last year.

Hodgkinson was incapacitated and died before he arrived at the hospital. He was shot by the special agents assigned to Representative Scalise’s security detail and local police who responded to the attack.
Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) left the practice minutes before the shooting erupted. He told reporters that he was stopped by a strange man asking if Republicans or Democrats were practicing on the field.

DeSantis believes that the man who stopped him was the shooter and was intentionally targeting Republicans. Police say it is too earlier to determine if the shooting should be considered a terrorist attack.

The entire nation erupted in sympathy for Representative Scalise and the others who were injured yesterday morning. Americans from both sides of the aisle are coming together to offer their thoughts and prayers. President Trump visited Rep. Scalise in the hospital and stated that he “is in very tough shape – but he is a real fighter. Pray for Steve!”
Senator Rand Paul, who was present at the shooting, praised Capitol Hill Police for their decisive action subduing the shooter. “Without the Capitol Hill Police it would have been a massacre,” explained Paul, referring to the attack. “We were like sitting ducks.”

As we reported yesterday, there was an unlikely source calling for an investigation into Loretta Lynch: Diane Feinstein. This came after James Comey’s testimony last week when he testified that Lynch instructed him, without explanation, to call the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use a private email server as secretary of a state a “matter” instead of an investigation. Lynch’s request, Comey said, made him feel “queasy” as it appeared she was “looking to align the way we talked about our work with the way the political campaign was describing the same activity, which was inaccurate.”

“I would have a queasy feeling, too,” Feinstein admitted on CNN on Sunday.
Now, President Donald Trump is upping the stakes. Earlier today, he tweeted out “A.G. Lynch made law enforcement decisions for political purposes…gave Hillary Clinton a free pass and protection. Totally illegal!”

Is Trump opening the door for prosecution against Lynch? Maybe so.

As we all remember, Lynch recused herself from the investigation into Clinton’s use of a private email server after a private meeting at an airport with former President Bill Clinton last summer. We only learned of the meeting between the two because a freelance journalist was tipped off to it.

Fox News beat out its competitors on Tuesday, attracting more than 3 million viewers during Attorney General Jeff Sessions’s hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee.

Both CNN and MSNBC had roughly a million fewer viewers, numbering at 2,218,000 and 2,208,000, respectively. Fox grabbed 3,200,000 total viewers, according to Nielsen data provided by the network, and beat out the other two cable networks in primetime coverage starting at 8 p.m.
Sean Hannity’s show, “Hannity,” earned a total of 3,076,000 viewers, making it the top program in primetime.

Although so-called “progressives” have been desperately trying to spin yesterday’s horrors, in which a crazed liberal opened fire on Republicans, it seems that not everyone is so keen on the idea. In fact, GOP lawmakers recently came forward to make quite the startling admission – and it has liberals panicking as it comes just one day after the shooting.

On Wednesday, a horrible incident left 5 people in the hospital after a gunman opened fire on a baseball field in Alexandria, Virginia, while the field was occupied by members of Congress as they practiced for an upcoming charity baseball game.

While most Americans were heartbroken to hear what a single gunman did, a few extreme leftists decided to use the pain and suffering of other people to further the liberal agenda. As a result, we saw a flurry of “Republicans deserved this” and “Trump should have been the one that was shot” comments.

However, the worst came as Democrats actually suggested that this was a reason to strip Americans of their Second Amendment rights. Despite the fact that the gunman was a flaming liberal himself, who was neutralized with a gun, it hasn’t stopped his fellow liberals in their anti-gun pursuits.

Unfortunately for them, they just got shot down as GOP lawmakers made a startling admission just one day after the shooting. According to The Daily Caller, “Texas Republican Rep. Roger Williams, a player on his party’s congressional baseball team, agreed with his colleagues saying that members having firearms would have been better for them when a gunman shot at the team Wednesday morning.”

“Well it took the second shot for me to understand what was happening here,” Williams explained. “Everybody… we were sitting ducks. I mean we had no… we had nothing to fight back with but bats if it got to that. We were sitting ducks. I think he was not able to get on the field because the gate was locked on the other side. If [he had] gotten on the field it could have been a bad situation. But he was not able to do that. But we were sitting ducks.”

He even went so far as to offer a solution that would allow for such a scenario to be an impossibility from here on out. When asked if he thinks members should be able to carry firearms in the Capitol and other currently restricted places, well, we’ll give you one guess on what he said.

“Remember two things,” he replied. “Well, first of all, I’m for the Second Amendment — a big second amendment guy and I’m from Texas. So yes, I would have felt a lot more comfortable if we were able to do that.”

No matter how hard the left tries to spin everything, this case is a gleaming example why Americans are safer with guns. Criminals like this madman will always find a way to get their hands on guns – period. That includes breaking the law, which is exactly what this madman did. If these would-be killers don’t mind the possibility of committing murder, which is already a crime, why would they mind committing another crime to get a gun to do it?
