WikiLeaks Publishes FREE Copy of Trashy Michael Wolff Book January 8, 2018| by Donn Marten An overwhelming majority of people had never heard of truth-challenged leftist writer Michael Wolff until last week when he was given wall-to-wall media coverage over a sleazy book of anti-Trump tabloid trash entitled “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House” that has been afforded the reverence of the Holy Bible itself. This has all the looks of a coordinated smear campaign like the dozens of others that have been cooked up to take down Trump but failed. There is just no way that a book like this by a bug-eyed freak with credibility problems gets the attention that it does if there ...

A federal judge dismissed all charges against rancher Cliven Bundy, his two sons and another man on Monday.U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro cited "flagrant prosecutorial misconduct" in her decision to dismiss all charges against the Nevada rancher and three others. Navarro on Dec. 20 declared a mistrial in the high-profile Bundy case. It was only the latest, stunning development in the saga of the Nevada rancher, and served as a repudiation of the federal government. Navarro accused prosecutors of willfully withholding evidence from Bundy’s lawyers, in violation of the federal Brady rule. The Brady rule, named after the landmark 1963 Supreme Court case known as Brady v. ...

White Plains, NY – A police officer who shot and killed an innocent 68-year-old mentally ill veteran who accidentally hit the medical emergency button in his home, will face no consequences after acting U.S. Attorney Joon Kim determined that there was insufficient evidence to press charges. The victim, Kenneth Chamberlain, accidentally triggered a medical alert through “Life Aid,” which prompted police to visit his home. When the officers arrived unexpectedly, Chamberlain told the responding officers that he was OK and did not need any help. He refused to answer his door, and instead called Life Aid and told them that he did not need the police at his home. ...

A great many people – especially conservatives – reverence the Constitution, consider that it has been abused and that if only the doctrines expressed within were revived and respected, all would be well with America again. This, of course, is a kind of children’s bedtime story – and approximates reality to about the same degree as the story of the Three Little Pigs. The Constitution was peddled and imposed on us by men like Alexander Hamilton, a grasper after power who very openly loathed the ideas expressed by men like Jefferson in his Declaration (and even more so in his Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions). Hamilton and his faction – they were called ...
Bitter Cold Is “Exactly What We Should Expect” From Global Warming, Says Al Gore

A day after the so-called “Bomb Cyclone” battered the northeast United States — and with bitter cold expected to blast the same area over this weekend — one might think that this global warming stuff is not all that it’s cracked up to be. It’s a good thing we have the world’s foremost pseudo-scientist, former Vice President Al Gore, to set us straight. On January 4, Gore (shown) tweeted, “It’s bitter cold in parts of the U.S., but climate scientist Dr. Michael Mann explains that’s exactly what we should expect from the climate crisis.” The article that Gore referenced linked the snow and cold to climate change. Because every weather ...

During his opening monologue during the 75th Golden Globe Awards, host Seth Meyers pointed to his time hosting the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2011. Meyers said his jokes about Donald Trump not being qualified for the presidency are said to have spurred the now president’s run for office. So Meyers tried a similar tactic when giving his opening monologue in an effort to inspire some other celebrities to get into politics. He immediately turned to Oprah Winfrey, who has said previously that she will “never run for public office.” “Some have said that night convinced [Trump] to run,” the Golden Globes host said. “So if that’s true, I just want ...

They are however spreading their failing and dying libertarian philosophy less as time goes by....thank the good Lord for that. While Ron Paul has never been able to deliver on his promises or to satisfy any of the Paultards’ expectations, a very small number of cultish supporters strive hard to keep his reactionary views and fading memory alive.

During a brief press conference at Camp David on Saturday afternoon, flanked by GOP congressional leaders and cabinet secretaries, President Donald Trump insisted that Mexico will pay for a wall along the United States’ southern border.“I believe that Mexico will pay for the wall. I have a very good relationship with Mexico. As you know, we’re negotiating NAFTA. We’ll see how that goes,” Trump said. “But Mexico will pay. In some form, Mexico will pay for the wall.”Trump’s comment came as he explained his stance on legislation to restore the protections from the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which allowed certain young, undocumented ...

WASHINGTON — One American politician is currently dominating the cultural landscape, from social media to late-night television. His poll numbers look great, his Twitter posts are often among the most read in the world, and with every utterance, his impassioned base of supporters reacts with a fervor more typical for celebrities than former civil servants. Meet Barack Obama. The former president left office last January with favorable approval ratings, but historians, former staffers, and political observers now say his societal standing has reached a new echelon — and it’s partly due to his successor. Donald Trump spent much of his first year in office attempting to erase ...
Chelsea Clinton Forced to Publicly Deny Worshiping Satan

There has been a lot of talk over the past year of Chelsea Clinton following her mother and father into politics, but we can’t imagine that this is the kind of thing that launches a career into the stratosphere. As one conservative site humorously put it, it’s never a good day when you have to publicly deny that you worship Satan. But that’s exactly what Clinton was forced to do this week after her social media overtures to the official Church of Satan sent Twitter into a tizzy. The trouble began on Tuesday. In a tweet to Chrissy Teigen (how does this idiot always wind up in the middle of things?), Chelsea wrote, “In 2017, @Church of Satan & I were put on a few ...

In Donald Trump’s first act as president, he signed a high-profile executive order intended to dismantle Obamacare, instructing federal agencies to take any measures they could to roll back the Affordable Care Act. In retrospect, the vaguely worded directive was only symbolic. The Trump administration did eventually make moves to obstruct the law, but they took months and another executive order to implement. For all the theater, it’s hard to say whether that order had any effect at all.Less noticed on Inauguration Day was a surprise move by the Federal Housing Administration to scratch a planned reduction in mortgage insurance premiums. That change helped shore up the financial ...

Are we on the slippery slope toward autocracy? David Atkins says things changed this week:In the year since Donald Trump moved into the White House, one of the key questions was how long the institutions of American democracy would hold up if he tried to create an authoritarian state centered around himself. For a long time things seemed to be largely OK: the institutions of state were mostly able to resist Trump’s incursions into their necessary roles and perform their duties more or less as intended. ….But all of that started to change this week….Republican Senators who began last year by pretending to want investigations into Russia’s interference in the election are ...

Before we wax too eloquent about the democratic aspirations of the great Iranian people, we should keep in the mind that the most probable scenario for Iran under any likely regime is a sickening spiral into poverty and depopulation. Iran has the fastest-aging population of any country in the world, indeed, the fast-aging population of any country in history. It has the highest rate of venereal disease infection and the highest rate of infertility of any country in the world. It has a youth unemployment rate of 35% (adjusted for warehousing young people in state-run diploma mills). And worst of all, it has run out of water.We might be observing the birth of Iranian democracy in the ...

It's a first for the Beaver State.

Trump watchers have been treated to a world-class cage match over the last couple of days between President Donald Trump and one of his political Svengalis, Steve Bannon.Lots of attention has been lavished on Bannon's charge, leveled in a new book by the journalist Michael Wolff, that Trump's son, Donald Jr., engaged in "treasonous" behavior by meeting with a Russian lawyer in Trump Tower during the 2016 presidential campaign. There are also requisite antics involving others in the Trump clan and the White House.All of that is entertaining, as is Trump's furious counterattack. He posits that Bannon has "lost his mind" and on Wednesday night unleashed one of ...

In 2016, researchers found more than 900 hate groups operating in the US, with over 100 of them having a presence on Twitter.Twitter has declared a ban on them and last month the purge began. But Twitter also got heat for doing it wrong when it banned a satire site.Ex-NSA analyst Emily Crose has been single-handedly trying to make this problem easier to solve by developing an AI system that identifies "dog whistle" images. Twitter and Facebook say hate speech is a violation of their policies but they also say it can be hard to identify who is engaged in bona fide hate speech and who isn't. Twitter demonstrated the problem earlier this week when it came under ...
