Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee announced on Friday they will begin a formal “impeachment investigation” against President Donald Trump due to former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s testimony.
The investigation “will include polling material provided to the Russians by the former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort as well as allegations Trump is violating the emoluments clause.”
The Democrats will also “pursue testimony from former White House counsel Don McGahn and will subject him to ‘jail time and fines,’ if he refuses.”
President Trump needs to avoid the incoming bloodshed by stop being nice. If there is any part of the DOJ who is not corrupt, they need to start bringing charges to the whole Russian Collusion affair for perjury and that includes Mueller. Why Mueller? That report he got grilled about? He either lied in the report or lie to Congress. He needs to swing first.
Reader Paul K. has read about my Backyard Critters and dinosaurs, he saw an interesting bit on the news and shared with me. I have to say, this is something I was not expecting.
Police in Massachusetts are warning hikers to be on the lookout for aggressive yaks.
West Springfield police say a hiker in the Bear Hole Reservoir recreation area was charged by three yaks at about 8 p.m. Wednesday.
The West Springfield Environmental Committee posted on Facebook that they appeared docile so someone approached within six feet.
But then “one put its head down, snorted and then charged,” and the other two joined in the chase. No one was hurt.
The driver in an accident that led to the beating death of a young Berkley man had no driver’s license and should have never been behind the wheel.
Lawrence Davis’ long driving record shows he has several suspensions – and does not even have a valid driver’s license. The Chevy Impala he’d been driving was not registered to him.
The Impala Davis was driving was not registered to him, so there is a good chance it was stolen.
What we have here is a man with a long history of traffic violations driving with a suspended license in – quite probably – a stolen car.
I am going to assume that Davis here was afraid that this minor traffic accident would get him sent to prison. Hence, his decision to beat Wingate to death.
I’m going to go a little further out on the limb and assume the way Wingate assumed he was going to exchange insurance information with this man and be on his way.
As His Most Violentist James Mattis, our Patron Saint of Chaos, is famous for saying “be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.”
You don’t know if that car you hit is being driven by the church lady on her way to a prayer group or a gang member with a trunk full of drugs.
Hope for the former but be prepared for the latter.
Now, I hope you all brought your bingo cards.
Davis’ family is too scared to go on camera and told FOX 2 the 23-year-old has had a rough life. They say his mother died of cancer when he was only 14, and Davis essentially raised himself. His family also says – although he punched Wingate – likely out of rage – he did not mean to kill him. They say – that’s just not him.
“Some parents were holding their kids to hit the piñata,” said Anthony Martinez of Los Brown Berets.
Pictures posted on social media show several other children in line waiting to take a swing at the political piñata. Many Facebook commenters applauded the idea while others were in disagreement, calling the activity ignorant, disrespectful and teaching the young to hate.
“It was not meant in a negative way at all towards law enforcement,” said Martinez, who leads the Chicago chapter of Los Brown Berets, a nationwide activist group aimed at overcoming inequalities against Chicanos.
Martinez said his organization bought a Batman piñata and transformed it into a Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer.
“We’re just making a statement” that the federal government’s recent actions regarding deportation are wrong, Martinez said.
“Taking children from their parents, separating them,” Martinez added.
At the same event, children were offered a chance to throw balls at a painted image of President Trump.
Do you know what this reminds me of?
Palestinian children being taught by Hamas activists in the West Bank.
Clearly, the Brown Berets are trying to indoctrinate East Side Chicago Hispanic youth into a culture of racial and anti-immigration law enforcement hatred.
Anybody who has a casual knowledge of Israeli history knows how effective this type of youth brainwashing is at stoking long-lasting violence.
This “Abolish ICE, Open Borders” thing isn’t going to go away when Trump leaves office. It is going to last for a long time.
It is available on demand for you to watch or you can try find out when it is gonna be played again.
It makes you proud to be American and advanced Social(ist) Helpers will cringe their noses that a bunch of Good Old Boys, using their property and money volunteer to drive 1,100 miles to go rescue perfect strangers. And then be absolutely horrified to see them walking around with guns on their sides and eschewing the bureaucratic types that wanted them to do rescues in government mode.
