(Publicity Hogg) Some state colleges in California are apparently not impressed by the Parkland high school shooting survivor who helped become a voice for a global gun control movement. David Hogg, 17, has so far been rejected by four University of California campuses — UCLA, UCSD, UCSB and UC Irvine, he told TMZ. According to the UC site, a minimum 3.4 GPA is required for non-California residents to get in. The Florida teen has a 4.2 GPA and an SAT score of 1270. He’s been accepted to Cal State San Marcos and Cal Poly, and in his home state, Florida Atlantic University — but he’s not yet sure what he’ll do after graduating, he said. “At this point, ...
VIDEO: Dem leader Nancy Pelosi gleefully laughing about taxing Americans if Democrats win mid-terms

In a recent interview, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi promised to end the GOP tax cuts. That would mean a large cut in pay for most Americans. Businesses would be hit with a terrible corporate tax rate. It would lead to job losses, increases in the cost of living, and a murdered economy. The Democrats are out of touch, out of tune and out of time. I see no blue wave come November. I see a red tsunami. Keep talkin’, Nancy. Nancy Pelosi keeps giving the GOP talking points Washington Post, May 9, 2018 )thanks to van): Nancy Pelosi clearly wants to be speaker again, and she’s on the cusp of reclaiming that perch.

Hidden 'War Codes' In Trump's Iran Proclamation?
Post Date: 2018-05-10 07:07:47 by Deckard

Authored by Daniel McAdams via The Ron Paul Institute for Peace & Prosperity, Tuesday President Trump announced that he was canceling US participation in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JPCOA) otherwise known as the Iran nuclear deal. The president's assertions were ludicrous and factually incorrect, but the neocons who were no doubt behind the speech have never been all that wedded to the truth. It became obvious fairly early on that Trump's rationale was not to be taken seriously, when he cited last week's comical stage performance by Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu that "Iran Lied" about its nuclear program. Netanyahu's fairy tale ...
$25,000 Robot Barista Can Make 120 Cups Of Coffee An Hour

A San Francisco company has created a $25,000 robot barista that can crank out 120 allegedly good cups of coffee per hour, threatening human coffee shop employees far and wide. The machine was designed by the award-winning team behind Dr. Dre’s Beats products, the Ammunition Group. Cafe X is effectively a fully functional café with a six-axis animatronic arm as its centerpiece. Customers order coffee via a touchscreen at the kiosk, or the Cafe X app – where a text message is sent when one’s drink is ready. Like at a regular coffeehouse, you get a multitude of beverage options: latte, single-origin espresso, matcha latte, cortado and so on, and ...
MAGA Dumbness

In my exchanges in the twitterverse, I have experienced a remarkable degree of ignorance concerning the history of Iran and Syria. MAGA supporters, in particular, seem clueless. Iran hates us, they insist, and they want to wipe Israel off the map. Plus they are trying to get the capability to attack us with nukes, so that’s why we have to attack them first. I mentioned the CIA coup in Iran, ousting the democratically elected leader of that country, as part of the reason they hate us. One MAGA guy was unaware such a thing happened. I imagine he gets all his information from Fox News, which never puts anything about Iran or Syria in context. Fair and balanced, right? ...
Neocon John Bolton Tells a Big Lie about Iran
Post Date: 2018-05-10 06:42:35 by Deckard

National Security Adviser John Bolton is lying again. He says the US has no intention of invading Iran, taking it back to the Stone Age like he and his fellow neocons did to Iraq in 2003. On Tuesday, the Washington Examiner reported: A reporter told Bolton there was speculation that the decision [exiting the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action] was a “precursor to the U.S. putting boots on the ground in Iran.” “They would be badly mistaken,” Bolton said at the off-camera briefing. Bolton might be right. No boots on the ground—just a sustained air campaign to destroy anything of value on the ground (and underneath). This is the ultimate objective. Make ...

Here’s How The Supreme Court Already Repealed The Second Amendment [Full Thread]

The Supreme Court effectively repealed the Second Amendment in District of Columbia v. Heller by restricting the amendment to common arms.In March, retired Supreme Court justice John Paul Stevens called for repealing the Second Amendment, implicitly admitting that it does what, in his dissent in District of Columbia v. Heller (2008), he pretended it does not: prohibit laws infringing the right to keep and bear arms. Why Stevens called for repeal and dissented in Heller is a mystery, however. The Second Amendment was repealed, in effect, by Heller’s majority opinion. The opinion went beyond questions raised in the case and laid out a rationale by which Congress, states, and courts could ...
Stasi State - The NSA Continues to Abuse Americans by Intercepting Their Telephone Calls

One of the few positive things in the ill-named USA FREEDOM Act, enacted in 2015 after the Snowden revelations on NSA domestic spying, is that it required the Director of National Intelligence to regularly report on its domestic surveillance activities. On Friday, the latest report was released on just how much our own government is spying on us. The news is not good at all if you value freedom over tyranny.According to the annual report, named the Statistical Transparency Report Regarding Use of National Security Authorities, the US government intercepted and stored information from more than a half-billion of our telephone calls and text messages in 2017. That is a 300 percent increase ...

That house you live in, the car you drive, the small (or not so small) acreage of land that has been passed down through your family or that you scrimped and saved to acquire, whatever money you manage to keep in your bank account after the government and its cronies have taken their first and second and third cut…none of it is safe from the government’s greedy grasp.

No More Cop Cars

Five years or so from now, there may be no more cop cars.Vehicles used by cops, certainly. But not cars. These are being retired – in the Bladerunner taking-care-of-the-Replicants sense. Ford just announced they won’t be making the Taurus – which is the basis for the Taurus cop car – for much longer. So there goes that one. The other one is the Dodge Charger, extremely popular with law-enforcers because of its rear-drive layout and powerful Hemi V8 engine.But – savor the irony – the government’s fuel economy fatwas have made it very hard for any car company to continue mass-producing such a car, and the Charger is the last such car left on the field. ...
Jurors sick of hearing about prison guard’s huge, stinky penis

Jurors in a Brooklyn corrections officer’s sex-assault trial appear to be sick of hearing about his huge, stinky penis. The jurors were visibly glum and, in some cases, exasperated Wednesday as prosecutors continued a second day of grilling accusers on the shape and odor of Lt. Eugenio Perez’s phallus — which the feds say is so distinctive, it helped them confirm the women’s stories. “It was so big. I wanted to throw up,” a 50-year-old former inmate testified through a translator while explaining how Perez forced her to perform oral sex on him while he was working at the Metropolitan Detention Center in 2016. “It had a smell like he didn’t wash or ...
US company linked to Russian oligarch paid $500,000 to Cohen [Full Thread]

Avenatti alleged that Cohen received the following payments after the 2016 election: approximately half-a-million dollars from a company linked to Viktor Vekselberg, a Russian oligarch with close ties to the Kremlin; nearly $400,000 from pharmaceutical giant Novartis; $150,000 from Korea Aerospace Industries and $200,000 from telecommunications conglomerate AT&T. The payments were made to the same bank account that Cohen had created in 2016 to execute the now infamous hush payment to Daniels, Avenatti said. The stakes are sky-high for Cohen, who is currently under a federal criminal investigation by the US attorney's office in Manhattan and had his home, hotel room and office ...
Witnesses Watch in Horror as Cop Kills Tiny Groundhog for ‘Acting Oddly’ (Cop "feared for his life")

Free Thought Project – by Matt Agorist Carroll County, MD — A very graphic and hard to watch video has surfaced prompting backlash toward the Carroll County Sheriff’s office in Maryland after it showed one of their deputies shoot and kill a tiny ground hog. According to the department spokesperson, Cpl. Jon Light, the deputy stopped and killed the ground hog because it was ‘acting oddly.’ To be entirely fair, many times animals become rabid and need to be put down as they pose a danger to the public. Many times, police officers are the ones who need to do this as it is often required of their duties. However, according to the department, it was unclear ...

Fort Lauderdale, FL — An infuriating video has surfaced this week showing a police officer harassing an innocent motorist over the darkness of his window tint—and likely his skin color too. The detainment and extortion of innocent motorists for dark windows is a terrible injustice, as TFTP has consistently reported, which makes this video twice as infuriating. During the stop, the man filming the interaction caught the cop on camera violating his rights while abusing his own K9 partner too. According the person who posted the video, who goes by the name DePastor Yoo, on Facebook, he was driving home Saturday night when he was targeted by an officer with the Wilton Manors Police ...

Chad Larner, the training director of the K-9 Training Academy in Macon County, Illinois said in a recent interview that police departments throughout the state may have to euthanize drug dogs if marijuana is legalized. Larner said that it would be abusive to retrain the dogs and that it could even be impossible. He also said that the dogs are trained to not be social because that is what the job requires. According to The Pantagraph “, Because many K-9s are trained not to be social so their work won’t be affected, Larner said a number of dogs would likely have to be euthanized.” Other police in the state seemed to have similar feelings on the subject. ...

Officers hauled off 16 rifles, a crossbow and 13,000 rounds of ammunition around 9:34 a.m. from the Queens Village house of Keith Harvey, 44, a contractor.

Among the weapons were three assault rifles — including a Fabrique Nationale model with a 50-round clip and two AK-47-style guns. Harvey, who has no prior criminal record, was charged with multiple count of illegal weapons possession. ...
San Diego Area School Has Mural With Trump’s Head on a Spear

A school in the San Diego area, the MAAC Community Charter School in Chula Vista, actually has a mural of President Donald Trump’s head pierced by a spear. Isn’t it a federal offense to threaten the president of the United States? One has to wonder how this same mural would have been perceived if the head on the spear had been Barack Obama’s. Anyhow, the story is that KUSI first broke the story of the mural, and it was then covered up by school officials. But the station went back out to check on the status of the image, and apparently — it’s not been completely removed, but only covered by a tarp. On Thursday May 3, KUSI’s Dan Plante went back to ...

Efforts by former Secretary of State John Kerry to conduct shadow diplomacy with Iranian officials in a bid to save the landmark nuclear deal are being met with a cool reception by the Trump administration and allies on Capitol Hill, who told the Washington Free Beacon the former Obama administration official is solidifying his reputation as a tool of the Islamic Republic. Reports emerged late Friday indicating Kerry has been holding secret talks with top Iranian officials and others in a last minute bid to preserve the Obama administration’s chief foreign policy legacy ahead of a May 12 deadline when President Donald Trump is expected to scrap the deal.

State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman called his Sri Lankan girlfriend his “brown slave” and wanted her to refer to him as “Master,” the woman says. Harvard-educated activist writer Tanya Selvaratnam told the New Yorker magazine that her yearlong affair with Schneiderman “was a fairytale that became a nightmare” — and quickly escalated into violence in the bedroom, even as he begged for threesomes. “Sometimes, he’d tell me to call him Master, and he’d slap me until I did,” Selvaratnam said. “He started calling me his ‘brown slave’ and demanding that I repeat that I was ‘his property.’” Selvaratnam ...

Let me begin by saying I pray that John McCain has a miraculous recovery and returns to full health. But seems as if the eighty-one-year-old senator is nearing the end. Last weekend he asked his son-in-law Ben Domenech to take care of his daughter Meghan and there has been a string of people such as Joe Biden and Joe Lieberman to say goodbye. While most people near death tend to make their apologies, or a the very least become “nice,” still the curmudgeon as he nears the end John McCain is exhibiting the same nastiness toward fellow Republicans that made him so unpopular with the GOP the last two decades of his life. Former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama have been ...
