On Its 229th Birthday, Our Constitution Hangs by a Thread

On this day in 1787, the founders of this nation finished writing a Constitution that in the intervening 229 years has helped make America the greatest nation on earth. When voters go to the polls on Nov. 8, the American people will decide whether that document will continue to serve as the Supreme Law of the Land. America declared its independence from Great Britain in 1776. Then in 1777 the signers of the Declaration adopted the Articles of Confederation, creating a common government that would bind the 13 newly minted states together as a nation, forming a confederation of sovereign states. But it became clear that America would not survive under the Articles. Americans stuck together ...

NYPD Steals $18,000 from Man Because He Was Carrying a Banned Pocket Knife [Full Thread]

In the past five years, the New York Police Department has spent $347,000 on false arrest lawsuit settlements. According to the Village Voice, these costs stem from the city’s “gravity knife statute.” Passed in 1958, the law banned New York residents from carrying knives fitted with blades that fall out of the handle as the user points them toward the ground while pushing the lever. This antiquated law is responsible for thousands of yearly arrests, despite the fact that current knife designs bear no resemblance to the blades of yesteryear. But estimates suggest that over the past ten years, this particular ban has been the reason for the prosecution of “60,000 New ...

Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson and Green Party candidate Jill Stein failed to make the cut for the first presidential debate on Sept. 26, the Commission on Presidential Debates announced on Friday afternoon, in a significant blow for their campaigns. Though Johnson and Stein satisfied two of the criteria necessary to participate – that they be constitutionally eligible and have achieved ballot access in a sufficient number of states to win a theoretical Electoral College majority – neither met the threshold on polling. The commission said Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have been formally invited to participate in the first presidential debate later this month, while ...

A University of Houston grad student active in the local Black Lives Matter movement is suddenly all for police patrols in his neighborhood — after he was robbed at gunpoint outside his apartment. Jerry Ford Jr., described as one the leaders of the BLM movement on campus, tells KTRK that he spotted the young man loitering outside his apartment one evening last week but thought little of it. But when he went to unlock the door, the man pulled a gun and stole Ford’s wallet and cell phone. Ford lives at an apartment complex just a few blocks from the UH campus in an area that has seen a spate of robberies and thefts in recent weeks, including the burglary of dozens of vehicles. ...

The 19-year-old French girl was lured to the monument on the proviso of a 'date' set up through Facebook. She responded to messages from who she thought was a 17-year-old Tunisian boy and initially met him close to her home in the Paris suburbs. Last Sunday evening she turned up for another date where she expected to have a picnic with the boy at the Champs des Mars, the park where the Eiffel Tower is, and was attacked. A source close to the case, said: “It was a warm night, and she expected to eat strawberries and grapes, and to drink Coke, but then the attack took place.” The woman was dragged under a bush behind where a blanket had been laid out. She was then ...
Sensing rapid cooling in the polls, Hillary might enlist Al Gore to change the political climate

The New York Times served warning Thursday night that Hillary Clinton is considering inviting Al Gore to burn some jet fuel with her on the campaign trail and lend his credentials as a noted climate scientist to her rallies. Apparently, the Clinton camp also thinks that once dragged out of mothballs, Gore, also 68, could release his chakras on those crazy kids who had sided with Vermont socialist Bernie Sanders and are now looking to third-party candidates. The news comes on top of reports that Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders — combined age, 142 — will campaign for Clinton in Ohio this weekend in an attempt to draw the youth vote that seems to continually elude ...

A gun-toting madman and an innocent bystander were killed during a chaotic West Philadelphia shootout that also left two cops and three civilians wounded Friday night, authorities said. The unidentified shooter walked up to Sgt. Sylvia Young’s squad car in the Walnut Hill neighborhood around 11:20 p.m. and shot her as many as eight times in the arm and chest through an open window. He said nothing as he fired, according to Police Commissioner Richard Ross. Young, a 19-year department veteran, miraculously survived thanks to her protective vest and was listed in stable condition at an area hospital. Ross said a note believed to be written by the shooter was recovered near ...

You might remember a Hispanic political activist named Tony Yapias, who was extremely critical of Donald Trump’s assertion that some illegal Mexican aliens were rapists. Tony Yapias is the director of ‘Proyecto Latino de Utah’. Mr. Yapias also coordinated numerous protest events against Donald Trump including a rather violent display in Salt Lake City, Utah. – SEE HERE– This week Tony Yapias has been arrested for rape.

Hillary Clinton ally David Brock is offering to pay for new information on Donald Trump, hoping that damaging audio or video on the Republican presidential candidate will be submitted to his super PAC. Brock, founder of the left-wing Media Matters and operator of Correct the Record super PAC, recently posted the plea on Correct the Record’s website and is referring to the project as “TrumpLeaks,” NBC News reported. Brock asked for video or audio of Trump that has yet to be released. “One of the most important things for voters to evaluate in any election is the full measure of a candidate’s views, ideas, and temperament over time,” the website states. ...

Hillary Clinton’s lead in the polls has been declining for several weeks, and now we’re at the point where it’s not much of a lead at all. National polls show Clinton only 1 or 2 percentage points ahead of Donald Trump, on average. And the state polling situation isn’t really any better for her. On Thursday alone, polls were released showing Clinton behind in Ohio, Iowa and Colorado — and with narrow, 3-point leads in Michigan and Virginia, two states once thought to be relatively safe for her. It’s also become clearer that Clinton’s “bad weekend” — which included describing half of Trump supporters as a “basket of deplorables” on ...

After Banning Kratom, DEA Says It Might Be a Useful Medicine

Officials at the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) seem to have been surprised by the negative reaction to the agency's "temporary" ban on kratom, which it implausibly claimed was necessary "to avoid an imminent hazard to public safety." That ban, which will last at least two years, can be extended for another year, and during that time the DEA is supposed to go through the motions of justifying the decision it has already made. But according to DEA spokesman Melvin Patterson, the agency may decide not to keep kratom in Schedule I, the most restrictive category under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). "I don't see it being Schedule II [or higher] ...

Costa Mesa, CA – The Costa Mesa Police Department (CMPD) is trying to pull a fast one after a lawsuit was filed against it for the illegal raid of a medical cannabis dispensary. Knowing they have little chance in state court to defend their actions, which were caught on hidden cameras, the CMPD is attempting to move the case to federal court because cannabis is prohibited under federal law.In January, cops busted into the Costa Mesa Collective in militaristic fashion, pointing guns at customers and telling them to get on the ground. They immediately began removing surveillance equipment, but didn’t know about the four hidden cameras which caught them damaging store property, ...
Just 5.7 Percent Of Clinton Foundation Budget Actually Went To Charitable Grants

Just 5.7 percent of the Clinton Foundation’s massive 2014 budget actually went to charitable grants, according to the tax-exempt organization’s IRS filings. The rest went to salaries and employee benefits, fundraising and “other expenses.” The Clinton Foundation spent a hair under $91.3 million in 2014, the organization’s IRS filings show. But less than $5.2 million of that went to charitable grants. That number pales in comparison to the $34.8 million the foundation spent on salaries, compensation and employee benefits. Another $50.4 million was marked as “other expenses,” while the remaining almost $851K was marked as “professional fundraising ...

Cleveland City Council is expected next week to repeal legislation designating a portion of Shaker Boulevard as "Don King Way" and give the honorary name instead to a stretch of Cedar Avenue – where the legendary boxing promoter once stomped a man to death for failing to pay a $600 gambling debt. The honorary street name initially was bestowed in April upon a quarter-mile section of Shaker Boulevard between East 116th and East 121st streets. The road is home to the Call & Post newspaper, which King saved from bankruptcy and has owned since 1998. The newspaper published an editorial at the time, expressing pride that the street would bear King's name. And several ...

Brutus #11 - #13 (1788) on the then proposed Constitution Brutus was an pseudonym, as used by other writers on the proposed Constitution such as Publius who was John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, and James Madison. Brutus was Robert Yates who, along with John Lansing, Jr. and Alexander Hamilton, was a New York delegate to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. Yates was appointed to the New York Supreme Court in 1777 and was an anti-Federalist who opposed the Constitution. Jay, Hamilton, and Madison acted as salesmen for the proposed Constitution, and their sales pitches in the Federalist are often cited and quoted as a sort of gospel regarding the intent of the Framers who were ...

Democrats thought he would take from Trump but polls show he’s attracting voters who like neither candidate. NEW YORK — Gary Johnson was never supposed to be a problem for Hillary Clinton. The low-profile Libertarian’s presence on the ballot would serve as an easy out for #NeverTrump Republicans, Democrats aligned with the nominee have long figured, and that could only hurt Donald Trump. But as national and battleground polls tighten and Democrats’ hand-wringing grows more urgent, operatives both within and allied with Clinton’s political operation who are looking around to explain Trump’s new polling strength are growing increasingly wary of the former New ...

Media Outraged After Trump Tricks Them To Cover Endorsements From Military Heroes

The media showed up to the presidential ballroom of the new Trump International Hotel on Friday morning expecting Donald Trump to take questions about whether he still questions if President Obama was born in the United States. Instead, they got more than a half hour of a variety of military heroes — generals, medal of honor recipients and a gold star wife — expressing support for the Republican nominee. And it all aired live on the cable news networks. Before the event, Trump tweeted: “I am now going to the brand new Trump International, Hotel D.C. for a major statement.” That was interpreted by the press to mean he was going to address “birther questions.” ...

Trump cracks the Electoral College lock A new round of state polls shows Donald Trump suddenly has a path to 270 electoral votes. Just six weeks ago, Hillary Clinton's advantage in the Electoral College looked insurmountable. Now, based on the latest round of public polls, it's a different story. If the election were held today, Donald Trump would apparently win roughly as many electoral votes as Hillary Clinton — who held a commanding lead in early August and seemed to be closing off all possible Trump routes to 270 electoral votes. But state polling averages, which can be lagging indicators, are beginning to show Trump in the lead. According to POLITICO’s ...
