A rematch of one of heavyweight boxing’s most hyped championship fights is in the works — nearly 38 years later. Larry Holmes and Gerry Cooney are in talks to relive the June 11, 1982, Caesars Palace brawl, the two pugilists told the Daily News. Famed boxing promoter Lou DiBella is helping put the exhibition together.Cooney "would like to get a hold of me, you know that,” former champ Holmes said from his Easton, Pa., home Friday. The idea of a playful rematch came to Holmes when he and his wife were recently watching the 2006 film “Rocky Balboa,” where the sexagenarian fighter played by Sylvester Stallone returned to the square circle for one last bout. That ...

Just as desperate Democrats are pushing Senate Republicans to have John Bolton to testify against Trump to save their failing impeachment hoax, a new video was exposed that proved Bolton’s PRAISED Trump’s call with the Ukrainian President — the same call he later denounced AFTER Trump fired him! President Trump’s former national security adviser Bolton changed his tune on how he felt about the commander-in-chief’s July 25 call with his Ukrainian counterpart after he was fired from his White House post. While Bolton claims he resigned in early September 2019, Trump said he fired him. On August 27, 2019, Bolton described Trump’s July 25 phone conversations ...

Modesto, CA — Over the years, the Free Thought Project has reported on police officers shooting people for holding toys, pencils, screwdrivers, food, and even nothing. However, we’ve never seen a cop shoot a person wielding a junior high yearbook — until now. Though the following incident unfolded in October 2014, video of Jesse Montelongo, 35, getting shot for underhand tossing a book has been kept secret until now. The newly released video is part of a lawsuit between Montelongo and the Modesto Police Department because after Montelongo underhand tossed the book, officer Dave Wallace tried to kill him. He fired a single shot into Montelongo’s abdomen, which has since ...

Jackson, MS — Inside police departments across the country, hundreds of dogs are trained for various purposes. Some dogs sniff out drugs and bombs while others train to take out suspects who refuse to comply. In order to forge the bond between dog and handler, these K-9 units live with the officers whom they go out with every day. We often see stories in the media when K-9 officer is injured or dies and we are shown how the handler is suffering from a loss in this bond. What is not pushed to the front pages of the paper and the local news outlets, however, is when an officer abuses their K-9 or, as the following case illustrates, completely abandons them. In October of 2018, after ...

Eagle Point, OR — In October of 2018, a family was devastated and heartbroken after learning that the officers who took their son’s life would not be charged and were ruled justified in his killing—over improperly crossing the street. Matthew Graves, 33, was shot in the back twice by police last month after they followed him into a Carl’s Jr. bathroom because they suspected him of jaywalking. Now, after the cops who murdered him got off Scot free, the taxpayers are being held liable to the tune of $4.5 million. As FOX 26 reports, attorneys acting on behalf of Graves said his civil rights were violated and the shooting was unjust. They argued Graves was “doggedly ...

Paula White, a controversial televangelist who joined the White House in an official capacity last year, is arguing that the content of a sermon she delivered on January 5, which mentioned adversaries of President Donald Trump and soon after advocated for divine forces to cause the miscarriage of babies in "satanic wombs," was taken out of context.In a video of the sermon posted by Right Wing Watch, a news outlet that "monitors and exposes the activities of Radical Right political organizations," White can be heard mentioning adversaries of the president before calling on God to miscarry babies convinced by what she called "satanic wombs."

President Trump impeachment lawyer Alan Dershowitz got sent to hell in the first Saturday Night Live skit of 2020 — getting reunited with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein who said he was “just hanging.” SNL legend Jon Lovitz made a return to the comedy show to play Dershowitz rehearsing his planned impeachment trial strategy for Senators Mitch McConnell and Susan Collins. After terrifying them that he would compare Trump to his former clients — naming Epstein, O.J. Simpson and Claus von Bulow — Lovitz’s Dershowitz had a heart attack in the cold open and ended up in hell. “Oh my gosh — look at that, freakin’ Alan Dershowitz!” a red-suited Satan, ...

The former Los Angeles Laker died in a private helicopter crash in Calabasas, California. Bryant’s 13-year-old daughter, Gianna, was among those confirmed dead.

She denied using the slur in a tweet Sunday evening.“Earlier today, while reporting on the tragic news of Kobe Bryant’s passing, I unfortunately stuttered on air, ...

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is prepared to go to court with two "sanctuary cities," New York City, New York, and Denver, Colorado, if they fail to provide personal information on illegal immigrants with criminal records released in each city instead of being transferred to ICE. “We expect them to comply" with subpoenas for the information, said acting ICE Director Matt Albence at a press conference in Washington on Thursday. "If they don’t comply, we’ll be working with DOJ to go to district court to force them to comply with the requirements,” Albence said, noting the rule in the U.S. Code that he said justified the move. “The ...
Michigan State Police Uncovers Breathalyzer Fraud…Technicians accused of falsifying documents that certified the accuracy of breathalyzer devices in Michigan

The Michigan State Police director testified before a state legislative committee last week about his decision to take 203 breathalyzer machines out of service over accuracy concerns. The agency has been re-testing the devices to ensure proper calibration after learning that several technicians responsible for certifying the machines’ accuracy allegedly fabricated test results. Accuracy is of paramount concern with breath testing machines as a reading of 0.08 on the device is in itself sufficient proof to sustain a conviction for driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI). In 2018, the state police signed a $1.3 million contract with Intoximeters Inc to have technicians certify ...

Frequent readers of TFTP know too well how many beloved family pets are gunned down every year by public servants in the U.S. It happens so much that there is a term for it called “puppycide.” We have an endless archive of stories in which dogs meet their untimely ends at the end of a cop’s gun. The following story out of New Orleans is one of these dogs. Now, however, a mentally ill veteran is suffering immeasurable sadness because the dog cops killed earlier this month was his service animal who trained to keep him stable.

Jon Caldara, president of the libertarian Independence Institute, announced that he has been fired from the Post, chalking it up to “a difference in style” that his editors found “too insensitive.” “My column is not a soft voiced, sticky sweet NPR-styled piece which employs the language now mandated by the victim-centric, identity politics driven media,” he said in a Facebook post. “What seemed to be the last straw for my column was my insistence that there are only two ...

Los Angeles, CA — The country watched in horror last year after news stations across America ran the story of how Los Angeles Sheriff’s Deputy Angel Reinosa was shot in the shoulder by a sniper as he walked from his patrol car into the station. A massive manhunt ensued as heavily armed deputies in military attire set up a perimeter and locked down the area. For days the police state ran rampant as officers looked for the shooter. But they would never find him—because the entire story that led to the militarized lock down of the town, was a lie. Now, this cop is finally getting what he deserves—accountability. Reinosa was charged this month with two insurance fraud ...

In 2019, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page, 47 police officers were shot, 7 killed in a vehicular assault, and three died from assault. Another 77 cops died as a result of car crashes, heart attacks, and illnesses. Absent from the database of fallen officers, however, are the 228 cops who ended their own watch. This number is a giant leap from the year before and the fourth consecutive year that it’s risen. As the number of officers killed in the line of duty decreased by 20%, the number of cops taking their own lives has increased 35%. The website Blue H.E.L.P. (Honor. Educate. Lead. Prevent.) has already recorded five officer suicides in 2020. The mainstream media often ...

Houston, TX — An innocent man is fighting for his life this week after an undercover cop in a pickup truck shot him. Keith Martin, 45, never imagined his mobile car detailing business would get him shot, but because his potential customer was a trigger happy cop, that’s exactly what happened. Showing just how backward the justice system is in this country is the fact that after this innocent man was shot by the undercover cop, he was arrested—not the cop who shot him. According to police, the incident unfolded on Jan. 9 as two plain-clothed undercover officers were conducting surveillance in an unmarked Chevrolet Silverado in a Walgreen’s parking lot. It was 1:20 ...

John Deere, like Ford and GM and all the rest, is forced by the government to build tractors as complicated as new cars – and just as impossible for the average owner to service.But people still have the choice not to buy them. Many are beginning to exercise this choice. The Minnesota Star Tribune reports that a growing number of farmers have had it with government-mandated tractors that get uppity when their owner try to fix them rather than pay a Deere dealer to fix them. Or they just brick themselves. Yes, really. John Deere made the astounding claim about two years ago that the people who buy its new tractors are really just licensees. You possess the tractor and are ...

The team of lawyers that will be representing Donald Trump for his impeachment will include a few controversial figures including Alan Dershowitz and Ken Starr, two of the attorneys who represented the disgraced billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein while he was trafficking sex slaves across the globe for powerful old men. Dershowitz has also represented Harvey Weinstein in the past as well as O.J. Simpson while Starr served as the lead investigator in the impeachment case against Bill Clinton in 1998. However, Dershowitz has clarified that he is not a “full-fledged” member of the impeachment defense team. In an interview on The Dan Abrams Show on SiriusXM’s POTUS Channel ...

This is the standard operating procedure for police departments from coast to coast.

The good news is that some cops, not addicted to the violent war on drugs, are seeing that they cannot ...

By now, cops in this country must know that citizens have the right to curse them out in public.After all, numerous court decisions have affirmed that we have the right to swear at cops and flip them off if we so desire. It is protected speech. And numerous police departments have shelled out thousands in needless settlements over these unlawful arrests.But cops in this country also know they can violate the Constitutional rights of citizens and get away with it as long as they use the appropriate contempt of cop charge, then claim ignorance if they get sued.And that is exactly what Woodmere Police Sergeant Christopher Colon does in the above video when he arrests street musician Joseph ...

But just barely. The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals was almost able to talk itself out of denying qualified immunity to any of the four officers involved. The one officer who will now have to face a jury is was the ringleader of the investigatory debacle, but he was far from the only one guilty of rights violations. Three men searching for a store selling space heaters late at night finished their shopping trip surrounded by cops, who ...
