Recently a flood of “fake news” stories have been brought to light. Fake news is not just a term used for bald-face lying — blatant deception and editing also falls under this category.

Megyn Kelly recently had the chance to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin. When NBC aired the interview, they edited out a CRUCIAL part where Putin makes a remark about the Flynn investigation. Putin states that Kelly should be put in jail for talking to him if journalistic standards regarding Flynn’s “ties” to Russia were ACTUALLY upheld.

NBC apparently didn’t want that clip to see the light of day because it made them look foolish. What we see here is CLEAR deception by the mainstream media. Instead of reporting fairly, they are bending, twisting, and, in this case, erasing words to make themselves look more credible.

Someone looked at the clip and decided to edit that part out. Surely it was a huge part of the interview that we ALL needed to see, but the MSM didn’t care.

A line has been drawn in the sand. The media is out to further the agenda of their sponsors, as opposed to actually doing their jobs. We SHOULD NOT have to settle for this “fake news.”

It is interesting that the Left seems to be SO caught up in the ties between Russia, Trump, and Flynn — yet they fail to see that they are doing EXACTLY what they are claiming Trump is doing. You do not get a free pass to do whatever you want because you are the media.
We have always heard that the media is supposed to be the fabled Fourth Estate; an ipso facto fourth branch of government that keeps everyone else in check. If there is any truth left to this, that last limb has snapped off from the tree.

How did we end up in a situation where we are being lied to on a daily basis? If the news is willing to make significant edits like this to their interviews, then this is just the tip of the iceberg. The American people were only allowed to see the truth because Russian media also reported this story, but THEY showed the edited clip.

Our media is SO watered down by bias that we have to get the facts from the news media in other countries. Is this really what we have become? What happened to credibility in journalism? There are no more standards; it is just a free-for-all of lying and deception.

The interview did have some other moments where Putin put Kelly on the spot. At one point she was rambling, and he came back by asking her if she (and the rest of the media) “have anything better to do.” Kelly fumbled her words, knowing in her heart that he was correct.

The former FBI Director James Comey finally had his day to speak before the Senate Intelligence Committee. We knew that this was going to be big, but we did not anticipate how detailed Comey would get when he spoke today.

Comey bombed his testimony today, but not before taking some liberal hide with him. The former FBI director said that Obama’s Attorney General Loretta Lynch was pressuring him to downplay the investigation into Hillary Clinton as much as possible. Lynch URGED him to refer to the situation as a “matter” and not an “investigation” (via The Daily Wire). WOW.

Comey stated, “At one point, the Attorney General [Lynch] told me not to call it an investigation but instead to call it a ‘matter,’ which confused and concerned me.” No wonder he got fired, he was carrying water for the Democrats the entire time! He never denied downplaying it because, well, his actions speak louder than anything he could say.

He DID downplay the investigation, per Lynch’s request. It is evident that THIS is one of the central reasons why Trump fired him. The irony in all of this is how the Left said Comey was going easy on Flynn because Trump asked him to drop the situation. It turns out — once again — the opposite is true.
Lynch was working with Comey and trying to groom him into working with them and not against them. We SHOULD NOT have this kind of behavior in our political system.

Everyone wonders why we have trouble believing the Democrats. This is the perfect example. If the Left is willing to lie about something like this, what else are they hiding? We know they have been lying to discredit Trump, but this is on a whole other level.

When you start getting people in the FBI to lie to cover your deception, you might be a Clinton or a Clinton stooge. Of course, Comey did reveal other shocking information pertaining to Hillary’s investigation.

Comey also stated he “largely scrapped” the investigation with Hillary right after the meeting between Lynch and Bill Clinton. Remember when the Left said they were talking about their grandchildren and golf? Yeah, right.

We already know that James Comey committed perjury with his debunked story about the events leading up to his leak to the media.

Now the DOJ is confirming that was just ONE of Comey’s MANY lies under oath.

From DailyCaller

A Department of Justice spokesman denied several claims made by former FBI Director James Comey in a Senate hearing Thursday.

“Given Attorney General Sessions’ participation in President Trump’s campaign, it was for that reason, and that reason alone, the Attorney General made the decision on March 2, 2017 to recuse himself from any existing or future investigations of any matters related in any way to the campaigns for President of the United States,” DOJ spokesman Ian Prior said in a Thursday night statement.

Comey testified during the hearing that there is an undisclosed reason that might’ve been behind the attorney general’s recusal from the investigation into Russian election interference and possible collusion with the Trump campaign.

“We also were aware of facts that I can’t discuss in an open setting that would make his continued engagement in a Russia-related investigation problematic,” the former FBI director said.
The statement from the DOJ also pointed to testimony from Comey that he wasn’t aware of “any kind of memorandum issued from the Attorney General or the Department of Justice to the FBI outlining the parameters of [the Attorney General’s] recusal.”

However, Sessions’ chief of staff sent an email on March 2 to Comey and several other officials that said: “After careful consideration following meetings with career Department officials over the course of the past several weeks, the Attorney General has decided to recuse himself from any existing or future investigations of any matters related in any way to the campaigns for President of the United States. ”

The email continued on to say that Sessions shouldn’t be involved or briefed on those matters and that Acting Attorney General Dana Boente will perform the functions of the attorney general in those investigations.

Comey also testified that when he told Sessions that he should prevent any “future direct communication between the President and me,” the attorney general didn’t reply.

Hollywood is in mourning this week after Elena Verdugo, best known for playing one of the first Latinas on television in the ABC primetime drama “Marcus Welby, M.D.,” passed away last week. She was 92 years-old.

The New York Times reported that Verdugo starred as Consuelo Lopez on the program, which ran for seven seasons beginning in 1969. Her character was the proficient and loyal nurse who managed the practice of Dr. Welby (Robert Young) and a younger associate, Dr. Steven Kiley (James Brolin).

Verdugo appeared in every episode of the show and won Emmy nominations for outstanding performance by an actress in a supporting role in 1971 and 1972.

Her character on the show was originally meant to be a minor role, but Verdugo single-handedly managed to change that.
“She eventually created such an impression that soon she was as much a star of the series as Young and heartthrob Brolin,” Cary O’Dell wrote in “June Cleaver Was a Feminist! Reconsidering the Female Characters of Early Television” (2013). “We also learn during the series that Consuelo originally dreamed of being a doctor but, since her family couldn’t afford it, she became a nurse instead.”

“Verdugo’s visibility on the show brought with it results,” O’Dell added. “Over the years, according to Verdugo, many women told her they pursued a nursing career because of her. During its airing, Verdugo was also recognized by the American Society of Medical Assistants.”

The Clinton family has been at the center of scandals for the last couple decades. Seriously, who could forget the Vince Foster murder, and all the other suspicious deaths that followed? What about the fact the Bill Clinton was impeached as president or the myriad of women who have stepped forward claiming Bill Clinton raped them? I mean the list could on and on with all the crimes that Clinton’s have been implicated in, but the left still loves them.
However, it is not only crimes that the Clinton’s have potentially committed that has peaked the public’s interest. There is one rumor that has been swirling around the Clinton’s since Chelsea’s birth, and Alex Jones is offering one million dollars to put it to rest once and for all.

As Chelsea Clinton was growing up there were many people that said that Bill Clinton was not her biological father. For years, people said that Webb Hubbell, Hillary Clinton’s partner at the Little Rock Rose Law Firm and, later, associate attorney general of the U.S. in the Clinton administration was Chelsea’s real father.

At first, this was easily fluffed off as a rumor intended to just cast more speculation on the Clinton family. However, as Chelsea Clinton grew into adulthood the rumors didn’t seem so farfetched anymore.

Here is more InfoWars:

Radio host Alex Jones offered $1 million to former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton to take a paternity test proving she is the daughter of Bill Clinton.
Jones made the offer on the Wednesday edition of the Alex Jones Show while previewing an upcoming video showing Chelsea being confronted on her father’s alleged rape of Juanita Broaddrick.

“We also have a woman confronting Chelsea Clinton who is now the spitting image of Webster Hubbell, no doubt,” Jones said.

“In fact I’ll offer Chelsea Clinton $1 million to the charity of her choice – where she’s looted billions out of Haiti and other places so she doesn’t care – a million dollars to the charity of her choice to have a third-party group do a maternity or a paternity test on her – and you know she’s Webster Hubbell.”

“I mean you look at this new video we’re gonna play when we come back, it is Webster Hubbell… I mean it’s Webster Hubbell. Those are some strong genes. [Continuing in a southern accent] I mean that is daddy’s little girl right there. That is daddy’s girl. That ain’t Bill Clinton’s girl, that’s daddy’s girl right there. I mean I’ve never seen somebody with such a spitting image of their daddy.”
Chelsea’s paternal origins have frequently been thrown into question given her uncanny resemblance to Arkansas attorney Webster Hubbell, who worked alongside Chelsea’s mother Hillary Clinton at the Rose Law Firm.

Political operative Roger Stone claims Chelsea has undergone multiple surgeries to mask the fact that Bill Clinton is not her father.

“She looks just like her daddy [Webster Hubbell], despite four plastic surgeries, the youngest one when she’s only 18. What 18-year-old gets plastic surgery unless you’re trying to, I don’t know, thin out the lips and make you look less like your daddy,” Stone wrote in his book, The Clinton’s War on Women.

Is this a conspiracy theory or is it actually true?

For years, we have all wondered what is true and what is false about this devious family. They have done so much in the past that has ruined countless lives that this could be another notch in their destructive path.

Between the rape allegations, suspicious deaths, and now this what is the truth anymore? I wonder if Chelsea will take this challenge, but I doubt she would. If she took this challenge she could easily put to rest these rumors and help a charity of her choice. However, I think she already knows the answer and that is why she will dodge this in order to protect her family.

These people are absolutely disgusting and I am sick of seeing them get away with all their lies. I truly wish someone would step forward and say if this is true so that these Clinton’s can be revealed as the scum we know they are.

One of President Trump’s most beloved and looked forward to campaign promises has been his promise to build a wall on the southern border with Mexico. The United States has been feeling the affects of an almost unfettered flow of illegal immigrants coming in from Mexico. Of course, the logical explanation would be to just deport those who come in illegally, but the red tape that has tied the hands of law enforcement has made it even more important that we find an ounce of prevention to cure our problem with illegal immigration.

That imperative means that any steps toward the construction of the border wall makes any of us who value our system of government very excited. However, there’s been a new aspect to the plans that none of us have expected up to now. The President is nothing if not unconventional, however, his news plans to “bling out” the border wall is something that is altogether unusual, but possibly very useful.

The left and the media are of course not at all happy about the wall at all, much less any innovations that would make it more useful or less of a drain on society. There’ve been all kinds of objections to everything surrounding the border wall, but President Trump has found a way to make it green, and they’re still upset about it.

Via The Guardian:

The president proposed a radical way to fund his proposed Mexican border wall this week: covering it in solar panels.

The same Donald Trump who has spent years criticizing renewable energy as uneconomical and who has pulled the US out of the Paris climate agreement has now floated the idea of adding solar panels to his proposed barrier along the the US–Mexico border.

The president believes the panels would transform the wall, which Trump envisions would be 40 to 50ft high, into “beautiful structures”, according to congressional insiders who spoke to Axios about a meeting Trump had with Republican leaders.
Just as ‘put a bird on it’ became Portlandia’s mantra for transforming objects from humdrum to hipster, “put a solar panel on it” appears to be a mechanism for making hostile architecture more palatable.

It turns out that solar panels are popping up as adornments on other hostile structures across the United States.

Last month the city of Boston welcomed 10 new benches with solar-powered USB charging units to its collection of urban furniture. The units allow members of the public to add juice to their smartphones on the go – useful for sure, but their positioning prohibits homeless people from laying down.
Solar panels have also been installed in the grounds of several California prisons as a means to save on energy costs. Even better, federal inmates actually get to manufacture some solar panels for less than $1 per hour.

Outfitting public spaces with solar panels doesn’t hurt, but they will never really tackle the underlying problem, said Albert Pope, from the Rice School of Architecture. “The average American needs to cut her energy consumption by 75% and cut it fast,” he said.

The president’s idea of adorning the border wall with solar panels is raising questions of practicality and logic.

‘Putting solar panels on the wall would amount to mere decoration with no substantive contribution to its basic obnoxious function – a barrier separating one group of people from another,” said Langdon Winner, political theorist, philosopher of technology and author of Do Artifacts Have Politics?

‘I’m wondering what the solar electricity would be used for? Electrocuting people who try to climb the wall?’

For Nezar AlSayyad, a UC Berkeley professor of architecture and planning, the wall is “indefensible” from a humanitarian perspective and ineffective from a security perspective.

“Trying to embellish it with a technical function or a new utility … is a folly,” he said.

I feel like no matter what the President does surrounding a border wall, the left will have problems and say that he’s going to single-handedly destroy the world. He’s found a way to make the wall that, given, they don’t want, but incorporate a left’s pet project and make it more environmentally friendly, and somehow they’ve still found a way to say that they think it’s a bad idea.

So what is a good idea? Just do what you guys say all the time no matter what? Yeah, that left the White House when Obama left.

The public school system in the United States is a touchy subject because when it comes to our kids, we can all get pretty worked up. We delegate the job of their scholastic education to those who’ve been vetted and trust that the job will be done in a safe and ethical manner. Unfortunately, the social engineering of our time doesn’t stop with the metal detectors at a school.

Liberals know just as well as we do that the little sponges that are the minds of our children are the best in to make next generation into the tolerant souls that they can push around. Because of this, organizations with special interests are let into the school system all the time to indoctrinate our young people.

Now, it looks like not only are special interest groups being let into the school, but the school itself is altering it’s curriculum to accommodate the Islamic-tolerance agenda. This is most notably taking place in San Diego where the students will be subjected to not only tolerance training but an altered calendar and alternate problem-solving techniques if they’re perpetrated against those of the Islamic faith. Because Muslims have become a protected class, you can see how this could start to be a big bad problem, really fast.

Via San Diego Union-Tribune:

San Diego Unified School District administrators and teachers will have calendars showing Islamic holidays, students will learn more about the religion in social studies classes and safe places will be created on campuses for Muslim students as part of a multi-tiered approach to combat Islamophobia.

‘It’s more of a comprehensive program, not just a curriculum,’ he said. ‘We’re looking at it from a very integrated and holistic approach.’

One of the first steps in the plan will be to distribute letters to staff members and parents addressing Islamophobia and identifying resources to learn about the religion and fight discrimination. District calendars will be reviewed to ensure Islam holidays are recognized, which Anjan said is important so schools will schedule campus events that also can be attended by Muslim families.
Schools also will review and vet materials related to Muslim culture and history in media centers and provide resources and material for teachers.

The plan also calls for a different approach in disciplining students who bully Muslim students. Rather than detention, the school will use a restorative justice method involving the student who did the bullying speaking with the other student to restore their relationship.

Following a presidential campaign season that saw now-President Donald Trump calling for a ban on Muslim immigrants, there have been anecdotal reports nationwide of confrontations and sometimes violent incidents against Muslims.

‘There’s a sense of urgency around this work, especially post-election,’ Anjan said.

Counselors and teachers in schools and colleges throughout the county have said Muslim students are feeling anxious these days, but Anjan said he’s also seen more students wanting to work to create more peaceful campuses.

‘We’ve had students say they want to be leaders around equality issues,’ he said.

Trustees were enthusiastic about moving ahead with the plan.

‘When we create a climate where it’s OK to celebrate diversity and difference, then it makes all of our children safer,’ said Trustee Kevin Beiser. ‘Not just the children who happen to be Muslim.’

‘If we do this right, San Diego Unified School District would be the leading school district in the nation to come up with a robust and beautiful anti-bully and anti-Islamophobic program,” he said. “I’m really happy we’re going toward the right direction. I am excited, but also careful and cautious because the work ahead is something we will all be responsible for.’”

In this day and age, it’s easy for conscientious adults to avoid pregnancy regardless of any excuses made as to how it allegedly happened accidentally. However, an alert was just released today that authorities are warning American women (and men) that if they end up pregnant this month there is one very shocking reason as to how that happened, which for many may already be too late. In this case, the truth is stranger than fiction, which unfortunately will result in an unexpected influx of unplanned pregnancies.

While babies are certainly miracles and many hopeful parents-to-be pray and plan to conceive, other couples are hoping to start or grow their family when the time is right for them. This can be based on a lot of life factors and to plan and prepare with these things in mind is definitely responsible. Unfortunately, those best efforts may backfire this month in particular and for no wrongdoing on a woman’s part, after an unusual set of circumstances was just revealed.

One of the most reliable forms of birth control used widely by women is “the pill.” For it to be effective, it has to be taken regularly. This is proven by the fact that many have become pregnant after missing a day or two of their daily dose, taking it late or skipping to the current day. However, even if you have been following instructions on one package exactly as you should, you may still end up pregnant without planning on it.

Roy Larner was at the scene of the London Bridge attack when three jihad boys drove a van into a crowd and then murderously attacked people with blades. With blood everywhere and chaos ensuing faster than a locomotive, the one guy who wasn’t putting up with anyone’s sh*t was Roy. He’s 47-years-old, has a sense of humor, and likes punching terrorists.

The terrorists were trying to enter the Black & Blue pub and Larner was fighting them off, throwing fists, words, and whatever he could do to stop the terrorists from breaking inside and hurting or killing people. Larner was stabbed eight times in the process, but they were merely flesh wounds. He survived the attack and was able to witness the terrorists get shot by armed police.
Roy Larner, the fearless, hilarious 47-year-old who responded to the London Bridge jihadists bursting into the Black & Blue pub by taunting and then fighting all three of the 12-inch blade-carrying murderers with his bare fists. He lost the fight, but it was the terrorists who ended up losing their lives moments later. Despite being stabbed eight times by the cowardly radical Islamists, Larner survived — as did his self-deprecating sense of humor and love of the Lions football club.

Roy was able to see the fruit of his labor as the bodies of terrorists were riddled with 50 rounds of hot lead. He just battled 12-inch blades with his bare hands and fists. If you tried stopping a blade with your body, then you would know it hurts and can be quite fatal. He did that eight times and was extremely lucky to survive, especially considering he was stabbed in the neck.

The Sun provides a charming profile of Larner, “The Lion of London Bridge,” who gave the outlet his account of his confrontation with the jihadists (Khuram Butt, 27, Rachid Redouane, 30, and Youssef Zaghba, 22) who took the lives of eight and injured dozens others after plowing a van into pedestrians on the London Bridge, then going on a stabbing rampage in the nearby streets and establishments.

For the past several months, the left has been salivating over their make-believe Russian collusion story. They were SO convinced that the Russians were the reason that Hillary Clinton lost the election last November. They just could not believe that the American people would reject their corrupt policies so openly. So, instead of them sucking it up and behaving like adults these leftist fools threw a HUGE temper tantrum.

This temper tantrum has been going on for six long months, but finally, we may have a reprieve. You see, about a month ago, James Comey was fired from his position as the FBI director. Then liberal hacks at CNN and the rest of the alphabet channels turned into giddy schoolgirls thinking that they FINALLY had the smoking gun. That since Comey was fired they would be able to impeach President Trump for corruption. Oh, how wrong they were.

Today, James Comey was called to testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee and what he destroyed the liberal narrative.

Comey revealed that many things during his testimony but there were a few that stood out to me today. One tidbit of information Comey shared certainly ticked me off and I am sure you all too. Comey admitted that he asked a friend to leak to a memo he kept regarding his conversation with President Trump to the press.

Here is more from Daily Caller on the leaks:

Former FBI Director James Comey admitted Thursday that he leaked information to the press about President Trump, despite saying “leaks are always bad” during his last public testimony in May.

On May 3, Comey told Republican Iowa, Senator Chuck Grassley, that White House leaks were becoming a significant problem.
“You testified before the House Intelligence Committee that a lot of classified matters have ended up in the media recently…is there an investigation of any leaks of classified information relating to Mr. Trump or his associates?” Grassley asked.

“I don’t want to — I don’t want to answer that question, Senator, for reasons I think you know. There have been a variety of leaks — well, leaks are always a problem, but especially in the last three to six months,” Comey responded.

Also, this lying sack of donkey excrement revealed that former Attorney General Loretta Lynch attempted to reframe the Hillary Clinton investigation. During the testimony, Comey admitted that former AG Lynch told him to immediately stop calling the Hillary probe as an “investigation” or a “probe” and, instead, refer to it as a much more gentle “matter”.

According to Daily Caller:

Loretta Lynch, the former attorney general under Barack Obama, pressured former FBI Director James Comey to downplay the Clinton email server investigation and only refer to it as a “matter,” Comey testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday.

Comey said that when he asked Lynch if she was going to authorize him to confirm the existence of the Clinton email investigation, her answer was, “Yes, but don’t call it that. Call it a matter.” When Comey asked why, he said, Lynch wouldn’t give him an explanation. “Just call it a matter,” she said.

Comey added later that he was concerned about that direction as it was false. He was further concerned because it aligned with the Clinton campaign’s spin on the investigation.

Lynch’s order, Comey said, “concerned me because that language tracked the way the campaign was talking about the FBI’s work and that’s concerning.”

Well, after Comey’s testimony wrapped President Trump had a few words to say and they were EPIC.

President Trump victoriously said, “The failed bitter voices in Washington will do everything in their power to stop us from this righteous cause.”

President Trump also went on to blast the Deep State saying, “They will lie. They will obstruct. They will spread their hatred and their prejudice, but we will not back down from doing what is right, We are going to fight and win and have an unbelievable future-and it’s going to be together!”

Watch more here.
I do not know about you but I am absolutely ecstatic about what happened today.

The left was dealt a HUGE blow and it will be difficult to come back from this smackdown. All I know is that Comey proved what we have all known to be the truth. There was NO Russian collusion and the Clinton’s are horribly corrupt. I am praying now that James Comey will testify against the Clinton’s in order to bring down their mafia style politics.

While I am aware that we have not won the war this was a huge win, and I am not tired of winning yet, are you?

Welfare leeches are sucking their teeth at the Alabama government thanks to a new rule that just ruined their lifestyle. Lawmakers have began the process of stopping widespread welfare abuse to prevent people from turning into lazy, scandalous, no-priorities-ever, I ain’t gettin’ no damn job, welfare queen heathens.

The point is to reduce the number of people receiving benefits and get people back to work. In order for this to be successful, there needs to be a surplus of available jobs. In order for this to really be successful, the jobs need to pay people more than what they would get on welfare. Does Alabama raise minimum wage or lower the amount of benefits people can receive? If you look at it from a people point of view, then you can see that playing the system is actually hard work. You need to have half of a brain to fool the system into paying you for free. Take into account the lack of responsibility the government places on people and the inability of the government to successfully determine who really needs benefits and you have a concoction full of fraudulent cases and people milking the middle class workers tax monies.

Look at it this way – if you can earn $40,000 working full time at minimum wage, or get $40,000 in free money from the government, then wouldn’t you stay home too? Why would anyone work a job paying that low if they can just fill out a few forms and get the same amount of money each month for doing nothing? Pair that with lower rent, cheaper bills, and any low-income socioeconomic benefit you can find and it’s almost like you’re banking $70,000. It must be nice to have Comcast for under $10, which I believe is what happens when you’re on the system.

When you think about it like that, then no wonder the no-skill having fools aren’t going to work. WE’RE PAYING THEM TO STAY HOME!

Alabama seems like they’re trying to reduce the amount of people sucking welfare money like leeches drinking blood, but they better have enough jobs to go around.

Some people fall on hard times and use government assistance to make sure they stay on their feet until they find a job, but some people abuse the system and refuse to live an honest life. But what would you do if you had minimal skills and got paid to sit around on your new iPhone all day?

In Alabama, lawmakers have taken steps to stop the widespread visibility of “welfare queens.” Thirteen counties saw an amazing 85-percent drop in food stamp users after new work requirements were put in place (via AL.com).
In these Alabama counties, all users of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program who were classified as “able-bodied” had to perform so many hours of labor a week in order to maintain their benefits.

It might take some time, but the government should require people to get medical exams or send doctors on home visits and require people to have a medical checkup to ensure that people really are fit for work. If they are fit for employment, then start taking benefits away. Force people to survive. Make them get a job and offer something productive to society and have them pay taxes

Using simple logic, Alabama’s lawmakers realized that welfare users would gravitate towards full-time work after experiencing forced labor done merely in order to receive benefits. Paid labor is better than unpaid.

Former FBI director James Comey appeared before the Senate Intelligence Committee today to give a blockbuster piece of testimony. Now, Donald Trump’s White House has broken his silence about what he had to say.

Daily Mail reported that though Deputy White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders repeatedly told reporters to direct all questions to outside council, she was adamant about one point.

“No, I can definitively say the president’s not a liar, and I think it’s frankly insulting that that question would be asked,” she said.
This came after Comey accused Trump and his administration of offering “lies, plain and simple” about the state of affairs at thAdd Newe FBI and the reasons he was fired. He also said that he thinks Trump asked him to stop an investigation into national security advisor Mike Flynn. He claimed to be so afraid that Trump would lie about their interactions that he took copious notes every time he met with him.

However, Comey refused to say that Trump’s efforts to wave off investigators amounted to obstruction of justice.

“I don’t think it’s for me to say whether the conversation I had with the president was an effort to obstruct. I took it as a very disturbing thing, very concerning,” he said. “But that’s a conclusion I’m sure the special counsel will work towards, to try and understand what the intention was there, and whether that’s an offense.”

During the contentious James Comey hearing on Capitol Hill Thursday, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) leveled a question to the former FBI director that caught him off guard.

Rubio, addressing the culture of leaks which have surrounded the Trump administration and specifically the Comey firing, asked why the detail of Trump not being under investigation seemed to be the only detail which did not leak.

Comey’s response: “I don’t know.”

Rubio’s full question:

“This investigation is full of leaks left and right. We’ve learned more from the newspapers than we do from our open hearings. Do you wonder why of all the things in the investigation that the only thing that has never been leaked was the fact that the president was not personally under investigation, despite the fact that both Democrats and Republican and leadership of Congress knew that and have known that for weeks?
Comey’s full answer:

Last June, the horrifying story of a 5-year-old little girl from Twin Falls, Idaho, being gang raped by Muslim refugees shook the nation. The Muslim pieces of filth not only took turns anally raping the girl and urinating in her mouth, but then video-ed the attack, later taking the footage back to their father who celebrated the attack and thought it was funny. But just when we thought that justice would finally be served, Judge Thomas Borreson who presided over the case has just done the unthinkable to the family, sending a clear message that Sharia Law is the supreme law of the land in Idaho, and that if you’re a Muslim, you’re allowed to rape infidel girls, exactly as the Quran instructs you to do.
Since the savage attack on their tiny child that occurred 1 year ago at the hands of this Muslim filth, Lacy Peterson and her husband have been living in absolute hell, as local authorities have continued to try to bury the story and downplay the events that occurred. Many liberal news outlets simply said the story was “fake news,” with lead “fact-checker” Snopes at the helm of the cover-up, saying that the rape never even occurred, despite there being endless evidence to say otherwise.

We thought that justice would finally be done for this family on Monday, but that was not at all the case. Rather than locking up these raping savages, not only did Judge Thomas Borreson let the little roaches off completely free, but then issued a gag order, where he banned the parents from speaking out about the case or revealing to the media what was said in the courtroom on Monday. Pamela Geller reported:

The injustice began in the proceedings at the Snake River Juvenile Detention Center in Twin Falls when Judge Thomas Borreson of Idaho’s 5th Judicial District ordered the little victim’s parents to say nothing to anyone – ever – about what was said in the courtroom Monday, or to disclose the sentence he gave to the savage attackers. He did allow them to say that they were unhappy with the sentencing, but threatened to jail them for contempt of court if they disclosed why they were unhappy with it But even though the victim’s parents were not allowed to talk to me, there were 12 to 15 people in the courtroom who saw and heard the whole sorry business. I was informed of what happened by an anonymous source inside the courtroom – and the more I heard, the more I understood why this judge wanted to keep all the proceedings secret.

Janice Kroeger, the senior deputy prosecuting attorney, who was supposed to be trying these boys for their crimes, defended the boys and repeatedly attacked Lacy, the victim’s mother. A therapist for the boys was present, as well as a parole officer and a detective. Everything that was said was designed to portray the perpetrators as victims. Throughout the proceedings, they were repeatedly called victims, and the youngest one was called “the biggest victim of them all.”
The court heard absolutely nothing about the horrifying details that this little girl went through after she was anally raped and peed on by these Muslim vermin. The court did however hear about “how well” the Muslim attackers are doing in school, and how “smart” they are, while being praised about the “ordeal” they were forced to go through as they are now claiming they they are “suffering from PTSD” after having to go through courtroom proceedings.

While Dearborn, Michigan is considered the Muslim Mecca of America, there’s one U.S. town that now has them beat. However, at the rate they just began dropping like flies, the problem may soon solve itself, but they won’t go down alone without a fight. The Governor of Minnesota thought he was doing a good thing by opening the doors to droves of Somali Muslim refugees despite how any of the citizens felt about it. Those who disagreed were told to leave, but they stayed out now something new is happening there that’s never been seen before.

When Minnesota’s Governor Mark Dayton opened the doors of his state to hordes of new refugee residents, he invited in a whole host of unforeseen problems that not only the migrants are paying for, but the original residents are as well. Unkept people from other countries with practices that shouldn’t be acceptable in America, bring rather disgusting baggage with them, which just backfired on them.

Minneapolis is the epicenter of the Somali Muslim migrants in the state and within the growing population of these people is a particularly nasty thing in common they didn’t know they shared until it was too late. Since only two out of every ten refugees are vaccinated, they are passing around measles which is spreading into surrounding communities with no sign of stopping. The problem is becoming so prolific it could soon reach an “epidemic” status.

According to MPR News, the outbreak has dramatically increased with the start of the month-long Muslim holiday of Ramadan:

“Health care and religious leaders are working in tandem to control Minnesota’s measles outbreak, which has stricken the state’s majority-Muslim Somali community.”

“With another three weeks of Ramadan and its numerous gatherings and prayers yet to come, officials face the challenge of getting through the holy month without the highly contagious disease spreading further.”

With all of the free healthcare and access to doctors and clinics that refugees are given on arrival, they have no excuse but to get vaccinated and slow the spread of this disgusting ourbreak. Even their imams are urging them to get the shot to stop it, but it’s up to each parent to take themselves and their children in to do it.
“One of the imams, and I’m paraphrasing, he said, ‘If you don’t immunize, it’s like killing the Muslim children.’ I think that’s such strong messaging,” Ashkar said, according to MPR.

By last Friday, there were already 73 known cases of the outbreak, which leaves one to wonder how many more there are considering that these uneducated people may not know what their symptoms are or how to deal with it. It’s too late before they figure it out after being in contact with so many other Muslims before symptoms show. Although they’re dropping sick at an alarming rate within their own community, citizens who didn’t want all of these refugees certainly don’t deserve their measles.
MPR News reports:

“After several days without any new cases and speculation the outbreak may have run its course, additional cases were reported last week. Even if there are no new cases, it would be well into July before health officials could conclude the outbreak has ended.”

“The clear majority of measles cases have been in Somali-American children in Hennepin County. False information suggesting the measles vaccine causes autism spread among the Somali community, driving down immunization rates.”

To put this outbreak into perspective, Minnesota has now had more cases of measles within just the last eight weeks, than every other state in the nation combined has had all year. It’s no coincidence that the increased Muslim population has grown at the same rate with it. ven though the problem is most prolific within their migrant groups, mosques, and other places Muslim mingle, it’s only a matter of time before it spread,

The only people who can help to stop the outbreak from getting worse of the Muslim religious leader who seem to be the only authority these people will listen to. “They are a person who can take scripture, Islamic principles and can also relate that back to how people make health decisions,” Ashkar explained.

California’s Governor Jerry Brown just violated the Article 1, Section 10 of the Constitution by signing an agreement with China on “climate change” behind Trump’s back.

The Article 1, Section 10 states: “No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation.” This prohibition is understandable to anyone who is aware of the consequences of state and local governments having separate foreign policy.

Making treaties and partnerships is a responsibility of the Federal government. Only two states opposed this California and New York and they cannot involve themselves into climate change alliances by themselves.

When President Trump ended the Paris Climate Accord, California and China decided to sign a deal on Tuesday to collaborate and follow the Paris Climate Accord. The State’s Governor said that “disaster still looms” without immediate action.
The California Governor Jerry Brown said at an international clean energy conference in Beijing that President Trump ending the Paris deal will result in being a disadvantage.

He also revealed that China, European countries and several states of America will focus in accomplishing what the federal government wasn’t able to.

“Nobody can stay on the sidelines. We can’t afford any dropouts in the tremendous human challenge to make the transition to a sustainable future,” Brown said. “Disaster still looms and we’ve got to make the turn.”

Furthermore, the Cali governor had a secret encounter with Chinese President Xi Jinping, on which the two promised to broaden trade between California and China.

Back in March, Hillary Clinton announced at a St. Patrick’s Day event in Scranton, Pennsylvania that she was finally ready to put her presidential loss behind her and re-enter the political fray.

“I am ready to come out of the woods and to help shine a light on what is already happening around kitchen tables, at dinners like this,” Clinton told the women’s group, according to The New York Times.

Less than three months later, her fellow Democrats have a stern demand for the former Democrat standard-bearer: Get the heck back in the woods.
That’s according to The Hill, which contacted “more a dozen Democrats” who have been infuriated by comments Clinton has made blaming the DNC for her loss last November.

The most recent of these remarks came at the Recode Conference in California last week, in which she said, “I inherit(ed) nothing from the Democratic Party … I mean it was bankrupt, it was on the verge of insolvency, its data was mediocre to poor, nonexistent, wrong. I had to inject money into it … to keep it going.”

“Good God, what is she doing?” a source described as a “longtime aide” said.
“She’s apparently still really, really angry. I mean, we all are. The election was stolen from her, and that’s how she feels.

“But to go out there publicly again and again and talk about it? And then blame the DNC?” the aide continued. “It’s not helpful to Democrats. It’s not helpful to the country, and I don’t think it’s helpful to her.”

I want you to consider that quote carefully: Even people who’ve concluded that the election was “stolen” are telling her to cut out her lamentations. And that’s not the only Democrat who thinks it’s time for her to decamp to the woods like her name was Thoreau.

“If she is trying to come across as the leader of the angry movement of what happened in 2016, then she’s achieving it,” a former Obama aide said. “But part of the problem she had was she didn’t have a vision for the Democratic Party, and she needs to now take a break and let others come to the forefront.”
The unnamed Obama aide said Clinton’s remarks make it more difficult to reboot a DNC that’s in turmoil.

“It’s hard to do that when you have the former nominee out there in a newsy, aggressive manner,” the aide said.

“Newsy?” “Aggressive?” That’s clearly gendered, triggering language, unnamed Obama aide. It’s time to check your male privilege. I mean, assuming you are male.

One aide who worked on Clinton’s campaign defended her by saying that Clinton now feels at liberty to say whatever she really feels now that she’s not going to be seeking elected office again.

“She’s saying the same stuff she would say on a phone call with me,” the aide said. “And I think she’ll continue to have a national dialogue on what needs to be fixed.”

Even in her defense, however, the aide seems to have revealed too much. We’ve long suspected that this is the real Hillary Clinton: petty, vindictive, and totally unwilling to engage with anyone who doesn’t judge her in the same vainglorious way she judges herself.

Before Nov. 8 of last year, Democrats were more than willing to overlook these ghastly character flaws, mostly because they believed Clinton was their ticket to retaining the White House. She wasn’t, and they’ve suddenly discovered that the firehose of Hillary’s wrath — previously directed at the “vast right-wing conspiracy” — is now being trained upon them.

However, it’s difficult to have sympathy for these Democrats. As long as they believed Clinton was a winning steed, they were more than willing to ride her, no matter how glaring her flaws were. In defeat, she’s turned into a bucking bronco, eager to throw her supporters off the mount and trample them as vengeance. If the Democrats didn’t see this coming, they have only themselves to blame.

Hillary Clinton has spent her entire political career swimming in a cesspool of corruption. She frequently kills off anyone close to exposing the truth about her evil antics, while using the money of terrorists and evil billionaires to fund her diabolical plans and to gain her political power. Well now a sickening story is emerging about what Hillary forced black people to do at her mansion that is so outrageous, you’ll actually think you’re reading a story from the National Enquirer.

Liberals love to throw around the “R” word when trying to bash Republicans. How many times during the debates did we have to hear Hillary try to paint Donald Trump as a racist bigot? Well guess who just got busted for using black slaves to work at her multi-million dollar estate, reminiscent of the time that America’s Founding Fathers had slaves, which liberals are always quick to demonize our country over???

In an excerpt from her book It Takes a Village, Hillary reveals that as a way to “keep down costs” at her Arkansas mansion back when dirty Bill was the governor, she and Bill forced black men who were serving time in prison to work the grounds WITHOUT compensation.
The following excerpt was posted to Twitter by an apparent Black Lives Matter and Bernie Sanders supporter, where many people, liberals alike, were completely outraged over the revelation of Hillary Clinton the slave driver/plantation owner.
Here’s parts of the excerpt:
When we moved in, I was told that using prison labor at the governor’s mansion was a longstanding tradition, which kept down costs, and I was assured that the inmates were carefully screened. I was also told the onetime murders were far the preferred security risks. The crimes of the convicted murderers who worked at the governor’s mansion usually involved a disagreement with someone they knew, often another young man in the neighborhood…

I saw and learned a lot as I got to know them better. We enforced rules strictly and sent back to prison any inmate who broke a rule. I discovered as I had been told I would, that we had far fewer disciplinary problems with inmates who were in for murder than with those who had committed property crimes. In fact, over the years we lived there, we became friendly with a few of them, African-American men in their thirties who had already served twelve to eighteen years of their sentences.
Even liberal rag Newsweek couldn’t help but notice the outraged that ensued:

Twitter users have reacted with surprise and fury over excerpts from Hillary Clinton’s 1996 book It Takes A Village. On June 6, Jeanette Jing, an activist with over 33,000 followers on Twitter who supports Clinton’s Democratic opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders, shared two pages of the work in which Clinton reminisces about the black prisoners who worked in the Arkansas governor’s mansion she shared with her husband, Bill Clinton, who led the state from 1979 to 1981 and 1983 to 1992.

Since the election of Donald Trump in November, liberals have been twisting a complex tale about Russian collusion to steal the election. As the story goes, Trump had business ties to Russia. Those ties were so deep that Russia was either willing to, or bullied him into, colluding with them to win him the election.

Of course, there’s just one problem with this story… there’s no proof. After months of speculating, leaking, and media hysteria, nobody can prove that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians. From the beginning, the “investigation” has been a giant dead end.

The truth is that liberals will never find the link between Russia and the Trump campaign, but that doesn’t mean there are no links to Russia at all. In fact, a new video points out that there were plenty of links to Russia during the 2016 campaign, just not from where liberals expect.
Who received $35 million from a Russian investment fund started by Vladimir Putin? Not Trump, but Clinton campaign chair John Podesta.

Who received $500,000 from a company linked to Russian intelligence agencies to give a speech in Moscow? Not Trump, but Bill Clinton.
Who facilitated the sale of 20 percent of America’s uranium to the Russians? Not Trump, but Hillary Clinton.

Who received $145 million from a Russian uranium company? Not Trump, but the Clinton Foundation.
Who received millions of dollars in donations from Russian oligarchs? Not Trump, but the Clinton Foundation.

While congressional Democrats and the media desperately try to connect Russia and Trump, the Clinton connection to Russia has been completely ignored. Why? Because these inconvenient facts don’t help the liberal narrative.

Of course, the truth of the matter is that this is one big political charade. It’s an attempt to excuse their shocking defeat and discredit a new president. Democrats aren’t really concerned about Russian influence in American politics. If they were, they’d be equally as interested in whether or not Clinton was colluding with the Russians.

Remember when Starbucks vowed to protest President Trump and his policies by hiring 10,000 Muslim refugees?

Yeah, so, a big I TOLD YOU SO is now in order.

Starbucks had already taken a pretty big hit just after that foolish announcement. Their stock immediately dropped around 20 percent.

Starbucks CEO Howard Schulz insisted the dip was temporary and that a conservative boycott would have no impact on the company.

Well, things have gotten a whole lot worse since then.

Over the past several months, Starbucks has lost a WHOPPING 24 PERCENT OF ITS BRAND VALUE.
Now, a major player like Starbucks can NOT afford such losses if it wants to survive.

Pushing out conservatives is a BAD business decision.

And the Starbucks board finally saw that and gave Schulz the boot. His replacement starts next month.

Meanwhile, Starbucks is trying to now woo Trump-supporters by announcing that it will hire 10,000 MILITARY VETERANS to balance out those 10,000 Muslim refugees.

Indeed, a public endorsement by Trump would probably save the company. But they’re very unlikely to get it.

With the exception of a couple tweets in the last couple of weeks, First Lady Melania Trump has been relatively quiet since returning home from her first overseas trip. She’s now come forward with a stunning announcement about what she’s been busy with as she’s ready to officially say what huge changes are coming next week which her detractors won’t be too enthusiastic about.

There’s no shortage of rumors that circulate about our President and First Lady and the respectable pair deals with each one exceptionally well. Among the many that have been said since the start of his presidency, there’s one that’s lingered long enough that has now been put to rest once and for all. The couple has just now made it official through a White House announcement and congratulations are in order.

The anti-Trump media machine has been attacking the first family since the day Trump announced that he was running for office. It’s only gotten worse since being sworn in and the efforts increase every month that the left’s plans to impeach or somehow impugn him fail. While the president and can take the scandals they create and beat them at their own game, the rumors they create about Melania Trump and her intentions with her husband are below the belt, even for liberals.

Melania decided to live in New York for the first six months of her husband’s presidency, becuase it was the best decision for their young son who was ten at the time his dad took office. Barron was in the middle of his school year and to uproot him to Washington, D.C. away from friends and familiarity and into a completely different and definitely challenging role as First Son of the most controversial president in history, wasn’t wise for is wellbeing. Melania maintained her duties as First Lady of the United States secondary to her most important role as a mother.

Despite being criticized for this noble effort and setting an incredible example to other parents across the country with her decision, she weathered the storm of rumors that said she would never move into the White House. The claim was that she preferred the distance and had discontent toward Donald for allegedly dragging her into a major leadership role that she wanted no part of. That couldn’t have been further from the truth as she’s done a flawless job as First Lady and really seems to have found herself in this honorable position.

Proving all of their detractors wrong and staying the course and true to their word, Melania and Barron have officially moved into the White House now that school has ended for the now 11-year-old. There was never a question of if she would be settling in at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, it was always just a matter of time, which has now come.
The Angry Patriot Movement has more:

“One of the unending sensationalist narratives being pushed by the mainstream media is the baseless accusation that President Trump and Melania are in a loveless marriage.”

“Ignoring the clear devotion the couple have for each other and their son, the media clamors over every awkward moment between the couple of 20 years as proof that Melania is miserable.”

“Disgusting reporters too untalented to work for even the worst celebrity tabloids have accused Melania of being a gold digger, a foreigner desperate for a green card, and even a prostitute.”

The reality that these two could actually love each other and there be no ulterior motive in the marriage for either one of them is apparently far less interesting than the anti-Trump narrative the media has pushed for about six months now. It’s difficult for these people to believe that a couple can be both powerful and happy and also good parents, even if they don’t fit into their mold made from preconceived notions.

Perhaps the slander about their personal life and temporary living decisions was to distract from the incredibly positive message Melania sent without even trying. While she’s our First Lady, she’s also a mother, which is a role that she takes seriously. Before the results of the election were announced, she took Barron to and from school on her own, just like the mom next door would do anywhere in the country. She’s incredibly close with him in a healthy way, that will surely result in a well-adjusted young man more confident and mature than the liberal adults who constantly attack him as a child.

Do you remember the whole gun-running scheme concocted by the government under the Obama administration? You know, the one that went totally south when it led to the death of the Border Patrol agent murdered during Operation Fast and Furious?

Well, after a public hearing on Wednesday revealed that former President Barack Obama and his attorney general Eric Holder had covered up an investigation into said murder, members of a congressional committee began ripping them into shreds over it.

According to Fox News:

Members of a congressional committee at a public hearing Wednesday blasted former President Barack Obama and his attorney general for allegedly covering up an investigation into the death of a Border Patrol agent killed as a result of a botched government gun-running project known as Operation Fast and Furious.

The House Oversight Committee also Wednesday released a scathing, nearly 300-page report that found Holder’s Justice Department tried to hide the facts from the loved ones of slain Border Patrol Brian Terry – seeing his family as more of a “nuisance” than one deserving straight answers – and slamming Obama’s assertion of executive privilege to deny Congress access to records pertaining to Fast and Furious.

“[Terry’s death] happened on Dec. 14, 2010, and we still don’t have all the answers,” Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, committee chairman, said of Terry’s death. “Brian Terry’s family should not have to wait six years for answers.”

Terry died in a gunfight between Border Patrol agents and members of a six-man cartel “rip crew,” which regularly patrolled the desert along the U.S.-Mexico border looking for drug dealers to rob. The cartel member suspected of slaying the Border Patrol agent, Heraclio Osorio-Arellanes, was apprehended in April of this year by a joint U.S.-Mexico law enforcement task force.

Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, testified Wednesday in front of the committee, accusing DOJ and ATF officials of obstructing the investigation and working to silence ATF agents who informed the Senate of Fast and Furious.
“The Department of Justice and ATF had no intention of looking for honest answers and being transparent,” said Grassley, now chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and a staunch supporter of whistleblowers.

“In fact, from the onset, bureaucrats employed shameless delay tactics to obstruct the investigation.”

One of those silenced ATF agents, John Dodson, testified Wednesday that he remains “in a state of purgatory” since objecting to Fast and Furious and has been the subject of reprisals and ridicule at the agency.

“That decision, the single act of standing up and saying, ‘What we are doing is wrong’… instantly took my standing from being that of an agent of the government – to an enemy of the state,” Dodson said. “ATF and DOJ officials implemented an all-out campaign to silence and discredit me… Suffice to say, the last six to seven years at ATF have not been the best for me or my career.”

Well, folks, according to news reports, it looks as if an Obama-era mandate to allow transgender volunteers to serve in the military effective this summer has been delayed indefinitely, as senior military personnel from multiple branches of the armed forces continue to hold serious reservations about implementing the policy.

Per USA Today, on May 8, a memo from Deputy Defense Secretary Robert Work ordered heads of the armed services to gauge the military’s “readiness to begin accepting transgender applicants on July 1, 2017.”

The Pentagon press office released a statement in response to the memo that read, “The Secretary is awaiting the input of Services on May 31. When he receives that input he will make decisions based on readiness needs.‎” The assessments Work ordered were due back by May 31.

And now, according to Military Times, the move is on hold “as senior leaders within each of the services voice lingering concerns about the Obama-era policy intended to end discrimination but dismissed by critics as social experimentation.”

“The personnel policies of this Department are designed to enhance the warfighting readiness and lethality of the force that protects our country,” Work wrote. “We do not intend to reconsider prior decisions unless they cause readiness problems that could lessen our ability to fight, survive and win on the battlefield.”
Interestingly enough, it’s the specifics within that language – particularly the use of the word “unless” – which has opened the door for high-ranking military officers to criticize the policy.

“This could be seen as an opportunity to reconsider the policy,” said Brad Carson, a top official for military personnel under Carter and primary advocate for rescinding the ban on transgender troops. “It is certainly possible, and it would invite litigation. I do have full confidence in (Defense Secretary) Jim Mattis to do the right thing here.”

Perhaps Carson was right. At first, it was unclear how Mattis would rule on the matter, but in the past, he had questioned where such a policy would actually advance the military’s principal national security objectives. And now, with an indefinite hold placed on the policy, it appears Mattis has utilized the use of the words “unless they cause readiness problems that could lessen our ability to fight, survive and win on the battlefield” within the memo, and turned it into an opportunity to disrupt its implementation.
