[WSJ] Sen. Kamala Harris, (D., Commie) said she is running for president, aiming to become the nation's first woman to win the White House and the second black commander in chief. She's come a long way from lying on her back under Willie Brown
Ms. Harris, who served as San Francisco district attorney and California attorney general before being elected to the Senate in 2016, made her announcement in a Martin Luther King Jr. Day interview on ABC's "Good Morning America" and in a video distributed to supporters.
"I am running for president of the United States and I'm very excited about it," Ms. Harris said on "Good Morning America." I love my country and this is a moment in time where I feel a sense of responsibility to fight for who we are."
The 54-year-old will highlight her career as a prosecutor with the campaign slogan "For the People." She joins a Democratic field that includes two of her Senate colleagues, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Kirsten "White bread with no principles" Gillibrand of New York, along with former U.S. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián "Wholian?" Castro and former Maryland Rep. John "really?" Delaney. Because she, like the others, have no real accomplishments. Clown car to the debates
The field could grow in the coming weeks with the potential entries of Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Cory "Spartacus" Booker of New Jersey, former Texas Rep. Robert Beto O'Rourke, former Vice President Joe "Handsy" Biden and a multitude of
others.

Harris Lets Statute Of Limitations On San Onofre Lapse, Defends Brown
Submitted by Liza Tucker on Fri, 05/06/2016 - 14:17
California Attorney General Kamala Harris had evidence in her hands that she could have used to bring former PUC President Michael Peevey, architect of the secret San Onofre deal, to justice. And she had plenty of time, three years, to file criminal charges before the statute of limitations ran out on obstruction of justice--the easiest charge to prove.

[Free Beacon] The dark money nonprofit launched by Hillary Clinton following her defeat against Donald Trump relied heavily on just six donors and an $800,000 money transfer from her former presidential campaign committee during its first year, according to tax forms provided to the Washington Free Beacon.
Clinton's nonprofit, the New York-based Onward Together, was incorporated on April 24, 2017, by Marc Elias, a prominent Democratic lawyer and partner at the Washington, D.C.-based Perkins Coie law firm, filings show. Elias served as Clinton's top campaign lawyer.
Clinton launched Onward Together to allow her to be a part of the resistance against Trump and to encourage "people to organize, get involved, and run for office." The group would additionally send money to already established liberal groups who could provide direct action against Trump and Republicans.
The Free Beacon first attempted to obtain Onward Together's 2017 tax forms over a month ago but did not receive a response at the time. However, a search of state filings in North Carolina showed that the group had taken in just $3.1 million in contributions during its inaugural year.
Nick Merrill, Clinton's spokesperson, recently provided the group's tax forms.

"Hillary's Dark Money"...a convenient euphemism. Among topics conveniently not mentioned is the 'fund sourcing' for the Clinton Foundation. This in my view, is the likely life blood of her mischief and (following the unexpected Trump win) the source of great angst and consternation within the intelligence community.

[PRESSTV] A national general strike is the fastest way to end the ongoing government shutdown in the United States, an American political analyst says, as an impasse between Democrats and President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... over his border wall is about to enter the fifth week.
"The highest priority at the moment is opening the government but how to get it done is loaded with very unrealistic solutions," Myles Hoenig, a former Green Party candidate told Press TV Sunday.
"Probably the fastest way to resolve the shutdown is for there to be a general strike in the US. Not just the babus government employees and their state government allies but a real national general strike, something this country is not used to," he added.
Earlier in the day, Republican Representative Lee Zeldin suggested that Trump and all members of Congress should be locked in a room and left unpaid until they reach a deal to end the longest ever US government shutdown.
The bizarre statement came after Democrats rejected an offer by Trump to end the shutdown, which began on December 22 over the president’s plea for $5.7 billion to build his controversial wall on the US-Mexico border.

Deeply amusing watching the behavior of people trying to deal with their religion being shut down.

OMG what would Americans do without interpretive dance for a few weeks?

I dunno g(r)om..Went to a square dance in 8th grade in rural Ohio. The farm girls were nice and very pretty. "Corn-feds" as we called them. Tall blonde and blue-eyed of northern European ancestry.
Mrs. Warthog fits the description.

National strike? Well then CNN and the rest of the MFM should lead by example. Blank TV screens at airports would be a welcome (and long overdue) change.

My stepson was laughing at the shutdown yesterday. He hasn't noticed any change in anything since the shutdown. I have to agree, let it keep going and follow up on that RIF idea to get rid of the extra workers we clearly don't need.

They now have a new issue with people and it is called Libel. And We intend to class action their asses into the rocks from where they slithered from. They are ravenous wolves and have no regard for Life or Limb.
Of the narrative, for the narrative, by the narrative.
Chicken and egg.
I prefer Filet and French Toast.
Send some to the Pope while you are at it.
He is of no help at all.
Find any video of the kids chanting "build the wall" and link it on here. You can’t.
Here is a pretty comprehensive unedited video https://youtu.be/t3EC1_gcr34 of the events in question. The kids were there for about an hour and Nathan Phillips showed up from out of nowhere with several people shooting video, walked into their group, drummed in that kid’s face, and left after about 3-5 minutes.
There was no threat of violence from the kids. The Black Hebrew Israelites were hurling racist and homophobic insults at the kids AND the Indigenous People’s March participants ( calling them “Uncle Tomahawks”), with several of the Indigenous Peoples March participants getting into angry confrontations with the BHI.
The BHI did threaten several people with violence including a guy on a skateboard playing loud music to drown them out who they called a “stupid Puerto Rican”, random people walking by, and the kids in question, but it is not unusual for them to do so as they are listed as a militant hate group by the SPLC. Keep in mind that news media orgs have seen this video and don’t report any of this overt bigotry by the BHI.
Nathan Phillips claims that the kids approached and surrounded him, prevented him from escape, and chanted “build the wall”, all of which are definitively proven false by every video of the event.
This entire story is a construct at best and at worst it’s an occasion of an adult harassing children and then convincing the world it was the other way around.

this is not as lucrative a defamation lawsuit as the Rolling Stone made up story about the fraternity rape but it is still a decent defamation lawsuit because one of the defamers is the WaPo with deep, deep pockets because of Bezos
probably several groups of attorneys vying to get the lead on this but expect a lawsuit in a few weeks

If I was Trump, with logs of money, I'd have teams of PI's following these reporters and others around so that when the time comes, he can put out his hand and says, "Let's see what's in your file? Oh, I see you like underage hookers and buying cocaine....we'll just hand this off to the police and post these nice photos up on the internet. Oh yes, what was your question?"

Doesn't matter what happens to the actual story now, the mission has been accomplished - 'Trump hates Indians' is what the average person will remember.

As your foremost sage said
“Political tags — such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth — are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire. The former are idealists acting from highest motives for the greatest good of the greatest number. The latter are surly curmudgeons, suspicious and lacking in altruism. But they are more comfortable neighbors than the other sort.”

There is a crowdsourced campaign underway on Twitter to track slander level comments and turn them over to legal counsel for the boys. Currently tracking up to 6000 individual comments

those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire
Yes. Yes. Yes. The foundational truth of all human organization.
I phrase it thus: "There's two kinds of people: Me and all the rest of yous..."

Deacon, WWII veterans who fought against the most hateful peoples around the world called it Brain Washing, and were very familiar with the phenomenon that made large societies totally submissive to the "cause".
It is a set of beliefs that regarding the other side there is no such thing as "Grace".

The five chaperones weren’t even aware there was a memorable incident.
NPR is still reporting on the story today. It’s softer than earlier versions, but Mr Phillips’ version remains the one they’re going with. They aren’t keeping up with the debunking.

After living through the last presidential election and reading a bunch of Scott Adams, I have come to realize that facts simply do not matter any more. If they ever did. It's all about feelings and after-the-fact rationalization. Any facts contrary to the world-view disappear in a burst of cognitive dissonance.
Two tells for cognitive dissonance brain-lock: The victim rolls their eyes and snorts "Please!" , or their rebuttal takes the form of "So.. [absurd conclusion]". The classic example of the latter is "So you think we should organize our society along the lines of lobsters". (British newsie Cathy Newman interviewing Jordan Peterson)

There are clearly reality-based voters who can be moved, SteveS, because President Trump’s poll numbers keep getting better. But I suspect most of them are being as quiet about it as Pakistani Muslims who discovered Christ.
Maybe a few people should contact the Oak Park IL City Manager and comment about the fact that Ms. Griffin's name is literally written on the wall of the Village Hall (along with some others as listed HERE) I have seen it, and here is a shot of Dr. Bernard Fantus' entry.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
