Pro-statehood supporters await the arrival of Puerto Rico's new governor at the seaside Capitol in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Monday, Jan. 2, 2017.

Ricardo Rossello, 37, proposed several measures aimed at alleviating the crisis shortly after he was sworn in at midnight. Among them is a proposal to hold a referendum that would ask voters whether ...

Prominent conservative Christians are up in arms about President-elect Trump's choice of a controversial televangelist to deliver one of the prayers at his inauguration on Jan. 20. Florida's Paula White, age 50, will join Franklin Graham, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Center and other religious leaders in participating in the Trump inaugural festivities. Unlike the others, White is a proponent of the "prosperity gospel" — the belief that God blesses the faithful with health and wealth — who has come under attack for her theology, marital history and finances. "Paula White is a trinity denying heretic," wrote ...

Here’s a video documenting another case of law enforcers not enforcing the law… on law enforcers. A man who had been issued a ticket – that is, ordered to hand over a sum of money as punishment for violating the law requiring both a front and a rear license plate – went to the local police department parking lot, where he video’d several vehicles without front license plates (and one – a Chevy Tahoe – with no license plates at all) but no tickets being handed out. A law enforcer was present, so the man approached him to ask why he wasn’t doing anything to enforce the law which was enforced without mercy on him. As they talk, the SUV with no ...

(KCRA) — The Solano County District Attorney's Office decided Wednesday to drop a DUI charge against a Fairfield man who only tested positive for caffeine.

CONFIRMED – NBC Caught Reporting FAKE NEWS to Lie About Israel For Obama
Post Date: 2017-01-01 21:43:36 by Gatlin

On Thursday, NBC based an article on Israel entirely on factual inaccuracies, making it fake news. They said, “For decades, Israel has pursued a policy of building Jewish settlements on occupied territory Palestinians seek for a state.” The truth is that Israel removed all of its settlements from the Gaza strip more than ten years ago, way back in 2005. This isn’t just fake news, it’s old news. Maybe that’s why they thought nobody would notice. They added another whopper by implying that the Golan Heights are part of a future Palestinian State. Golan Heights is claimed by Syria and is an entirely different matter than the settlements in Gaza. Some are ...
'Policing For Profit' Goes To The Next Level

It’s bad enough getting arrested – especially when you didn’t do anything to warrant it. This happens all the time, because the the threshold for arresting someone is very low. It can be done by any cop, pretty much anytime – without much in the way of legal justification. He has the gun – and the handcuffs, after all. If he wants to arrest you, he will arrest you. Maybe the courts will sort it out later; eventually you are released, your record “cleared.” This isn’t new – or news. What is new – and ought to be news – is that several states have begun charging people “processing” and “incarceration” ...

Clinton Foundation CEO Declared ‘Missing’ By the Internet After Going Public Saying ‘Follow the Money’

Twitter users have started the hashtag #WheresEric in reference to Eric Braverman, the former CEO of the Clinton Foundation, because some think he has been a possible missing person since before the November 2016 U.S. election. Braverman’s last public activity, accessible via the internet, was an October 12 retweet. A common understanding of the events surrounding Braverman’s possible disappearance centers around his abrupt resignation from the Clinton Foundation in January 2015, which many thought was caused by his discovery of internal corruption at the non-profit organization. Braverman named was CEO in July 2013 during the immediate aftermath of Hillary Clinton’s ...

Mesa, AZ — Attorney and former police officer Anthony Ramirez says he was at first skeptical of his client’s claims of police brutality — until he obtained body cam footage showing an Arizona officer pulling up to Joshua Dombrowski, shoving him to the ground, and performing a vicious arrest. Dombrowski had been walking his bicycle down the sidewalk in a straight line on August 14, when a Mesa officer pulled up, jumped from his cruiser, and slammed him onto the ground — an act the man says happened for ‘no good reason.’ Ramirez acquired the Mesa Police Department officer’s report stating Dombrowski “forced two pedestrians” to “move off the ...

Donald Trump told Democrat Sen. Charles Schumer in a phone call he likes him more than his GOP brethren House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a source close to the transition team said. During a recent phone call, the president-elect “said to Schumer he likes Schumer more than Ryan and McConnell because they both wanted him to lose,” the source said. “They are Republicans and Trump knows they didn’t support him.” A rep from Schumer’s office would not comment on private remarks between the two men. Trump ridiculed Ryan on Twitter and at rallies during the campaign and teased both Republican leaders, saying they “weren’t in ...

Three new police officers were fired for making comments on a group chat about using Miami's primarily black neighborhoods for target practice, a newspaper reported Friday. Officers Kevin Bergnes, Miguel Valdes and Bruce Alcin were let go on Dec. 23, after an internal affairs investigation concluded that they violated department policies, said the Miami Herald (http://hrld.us/2hxDZZp), citing documents it obtained. The remarks angered local civil rights activists keeping tabs on a department that is currently scrutinized by the U.S. Department of Justice for a pattern of excessive force. "It's indicative of the casual conversations and comments that young and even more ...

Whoever does not do their part to starve the BEAST has no right to complain about it. Patriots of the Republic Given the shocking lack of respect that the Democrat voters have shown President-elect Trump, as well as the common folk who populate his nationalist patriot movement, it’s clear they need to be taught a hard lesson. Liberals/Progressives/Lefties really are all the things that they call the Trumpsters. They are highly prejudiced against the working people and narrow-minded to the extreme. They exhibit levels of hypocrisy and hubris that can be head-shaking. Their so-called Democrat peace party has morphed into an American version of the Bolsheviks. America has never ...

Trump's Pick For Attorney General A Big Fan Of Civil Asset Forfeiture

from the status-quo-maintenance dept Efforts to rein in civil forfeiture have been moving forward around the country. Several states have passed laws that remove some of the perverse incentives that have allowed law enforcement agencies to seize cash, cars, homes, and whatever else might be laying around without criminal convictions. Very few efforts have gone as far as to make convictions a requirement in every case, but most have at least closed the federal loophole that allowed agencies to bypass more restrictive state laws to take control of citizens' assets. The federal government's use of asset forfeiture still remains untouched. The equitable sharing program that helped ...
Brave Cop Refuses to Arrest Teen for Smoking Weed, Lets Him Do Push-ups Instead

Arlington, TX — As the law enforcement arm of the justice system in America, police officers routinely kidnap and cage marijuana users, especially when they’re caught smoking in public. But one Texas police officer is being praised for giving a teenager an alternative to spending the night in jail. Officer Eric Ball, of Arlington TX, encountered a teenager (minor whose name is withheld) smoking weed outside a local movie theater. Instead of hauling the teen to juvenile detention, which would have done nothing but ruin his life, Ball gave the kid an ultimatum. Do 200 push-ups, get fined, or go to lockup. The teen chose the push-ups. Ball described the incident. “I asked him to ...

Cannelton, IN – Volunteer Fire Chief Christopher Herzog was recently arrested for attempting to prevent a police officer from making a fire worse. However, the police version of the story makes it sound like Herzog was some crazed assailant attacking heroes. Now, the firefighter is facing a felony. When kindergartners are taught to “stop drop and roll,” they are also taught that fire feeds on oxygen and that sometimes a suddenly opened door or window could cause a fire. Unfortunately, Cannelton police officer Ryen Foertsch did not get the memo. Foertsch was at the location of the fire and in plain clothes, not dressed as an officer and was attempting to smash in one of the ...

Obama hit by racist memes on Russian social media as Cold War-style hacking row spills over into personal abuse

Russian social media users have launched racist abuse at Barack Obama, stooping to comparing him to a monkey in the wake of the election hacking row. A series of racist memes were circulated after Obama announced the expulsion of 35 alleged Russian intelligence agents and seizure of two country compounds used by its diplomats. Crude web mockery was savage in personalizing Moscow's loathing for the outgoing president even as the Kremlin leader sarcastically wished him and his family - as well as all Americans - a happy new year. Putin pointedly used a general message to world leaders to greet Donald Trump, George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush - and not Obama. Crude: Obama's head ...

Donald Trump has a new best friend. “President-elect Trump, thank you for your warm friendship and your clear- cut support of Israel,” gushed Bibi Netanyahu, after he berated John Kerry in a fashion that would once have resulted in a rupture of diplomatic relations. Netanyahu accused Kerry of “colluding” in and “orchestrating” an anti- Israel, stab-in-the-back resolution in the Security Council, then lying about it. He offered to provide evidence of Kerry’s complicity and mendacity to President Trump. Bibi then called in the U.S. ambassador and read him the riot act for 40 minutes. Israel’s ambassador to the U.S. Ron Dermer charged that not only ...
