[NYPOST] A missing 11-year-old Florida girl was found at the home of a 22-year-old man she called her "boyfriend," according to police — who busted the alleged creep for child sex abuse.The missing child was allegedly discovered at the Tampa home of Luis Alberto Encarnacion.
The child was allegedly discovered at the Tampa home of Luis Alberto Encarnacion, one day after an Amber Alert was issued in a desperate attempt to find her, Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco said at a presser.
"There is no logical sense for a 22-year-old man to be with an 11-year-old child unless there was horrific things that were going to continue or go on in that place," Nocco said.
Encarnacion is accused of preying on the child, who had already been subjected to "numerous adverse childhood experiences" — including that her dad is absent and her mom is in jail, Nocco said.
"In her mind, she thought Luis was her boyfriend," Nocco said. "We all know that’s not real ... What’s real is Luis acted like a predator on this little child."
He added, "She has gone from one adverse childhood experience to another ... She is looking for that stability, that rock, love, that caring nature that most kids are given in life."
The girl, whose name is being withheld by The Post, likely met Encarnacion on social media, Nocco said.
Two other men — identified as Reginald Clark, 17, of Jacksonville, and Jonathon MacGregor, 19, of Clearwater — were allegedly seen in footage picking the girl up from a local 7-Eleven, according to Click Orlando.
They were arrested on charges of interfering with child custody, the outlet reported. It wasn’t immediately clear if they were linked to Encarnacion.
Encarnacion was charged with one count of concealing the location of a minor, one count of unlawful use of a communication device, two counts of lewd or lascivious battery, and two counts of sexual battery against a victim under age 12.
After Encarnacion was arrested, he allegedly admitted to the offenses, authorities said.

[Breitbart] Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) doubled down on her restrictive coronavirus strategy by requiring young children to wear masks.
Michigan Capitol Confidential reported the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), headed by Elizabeth Hertel, who just returned from an Alabama beach vacation, issued the order.
Children under the age of 5 had previously been exempt. But now, kids at camps and child care must be covered.
"A good faith effort is made to ensure that children aged 2 to 4 years wear a mask when participating in gatherings," the order said.
The mandate noted at this point, children under 2 are exempt. It expires May 25.
The order came days after Hertel arrived back from a spring break vacation to Gulf Shores, Alabama and another top Whitmer aide, Tricia Foster, was found to have vacationed in Siesta Key, Florida.
Critics questioned whether there were different rules for top officials. Whitmer responded, "What directors do on their personal time is their business, so long as they are safe."
On Thursday, the governor appeared on MSNBC and blamed the Republican-controlled legislature and even former President Donald Trump himself for the situation.

Still fighting for the title of 'U.S.' biggest fascist asshole governor', Ms. Whitmer?

Not the Bee? You gotta be kidding me! I even clicked the link just to make sure.
Big Gretch is in trouble. What to do? The WuFlu is surging in Michigan even after (or maybe because of) a very strict state lockdown. The courts have said she has to play nice and cannot invent Magic Governor Powers on a whim. And even if she could, folks are getting a bit tired of it all.
Personally, I'd feel better about the whole mess if Gretch didn't look like the Lizard Queen in that TV miniseries "V".

I remember caring for young children after they had cleft palate repair. Post-op care involved splinting their wee little elbows so they were unable to play with the facial dressings and facial surgical sites. Tykes looked very cute waddling around like mini-robots. Maybe this would work to keep them wearing masks.

That’s official numbers going through the official process, I imagine. As opposed to all those caught who have — or have not — been given a court date and released into the country on trust.... or those who came across illegally and never checked in with the authorities.

Biden said to increase illegal immigration this afternoon (he did not win the election and had to have it stolen for him so they hope these illegals will vote for him next time.)

Woke whipping boys (default):
Seek out white men. Blame them first.
Next, blame Russians of all types
Then blame working-class white men and women
Then blame white male active-duty servicemen
Then blame white males in other countries
Then blame supporters of Trump
Then repeat the cycle, only faster, until everything conflates:
Trump white male Russian white Trump supremacist working-class white males ALL TOGETHER NOW! TrumpTrumpRussRussTruWhiteSupremaRussianTrump-ifragilistic-expeali-docious

What kind of dim wit gave it any credibility to begin with? Were we supposed to gargle some preposterous scene of Afghans who had given up on violence, bloodletting and butchery.
Ah, pity the poor Afghan riddled with alpine ennui as he is. No longer able to take joy in former past times. No goat, AK, or PKM can arouse any sign of interest. So timid have they become they must be induced by their close friends the notoriously cheap Russians to go froth and kill again. Only a solid offer of a good Russian check, which they can almost certainly cash a lot of places can rouse them from their rural torpor.
One of the more sensible arguments for leaving that I heard some years ago at this point went to the effect that once we are gone they go back to killing each other and probably rack up a better body count. Of al the nonsense that comes out of DC this was low grade, even by their standards.

Of al the nonsense that comes out of DC this was low grade, even by their standards. It was nonsense on stilts for a while, and many poorly informed members of the US electorate still believe it.

[Last Refuge] The Washington Post has a lengthy hit-piece against Kash Patel where they infer unsourced claims the DOJ is investigating the former Nunes aide and Trump administration official for releasing classified information.
Keep in mind that President Trump granted full declassification authority to AG Bill Barr on May 23, 2019. I would draw your attention to these two paragraphs buried deep in the reporting (emphasis mine):
(WaPo) [...] The battle against the deep state continued, meanwhile. Patel kept pushing, along with DNI Ratcliffe, for declassification of memos challenging the origins of the Russia investigation. Nakasone [NSA Director] strongly dissented, and Esper [Sec of Defense] backed him up in an October letter to Ratcliffe "urging that the information not be released due to the harm it would do to national security, including specific harm to the military," a senior defense official said. Haspel [CIA Director], too, strongly opposed release of the information. Their argument for protecting sensitive information was finally supported by Attorney General William P. Barr, and Trump backed away, a source close to the events said.
"I think there were people within the IC [Intelligence Community], at the heads of certain intelligence agencies, who did not want their tradecraft called out, even though it was during a former administration, because it doesn’t look good on the agency itself," Patel said in the RealClearInvestigations interview. (read more)
It is tradition the NSA and CIA run to the Washington Post when they need a media PR firm to push their position. So this article makes sense considering the NSA and CIA both had something to hide within the criminal activity behind Spygate. [Maybe the timing has to do with recent information about the Durham probe.]
Regardless of what has initiated the need for the intelligence apparatus to turn attention toward Kash Patel I think we all understand exactly what is described inside the paragraphs; the stuff the IC couldn’t deal with.... the institutional damage they feared..... and ultimately the reason Bondo Barr went along with their need to keep it all hidden.
[Federalist] U.S. intelligence agencies debunked on Thursday what was treated as blockbuster election-year reporting last summer of an anonymously sourced story in The New York Times claiming the Kremlin placed bounties on American troops in Afghanistan. Liz is getting primaried
President Donald Trump, went the tale, deliberately downplayed the aggression to appease Russia and accelerate the timeline to withdraw U.S. forces. Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, currently number three in House leadership, was a primary purveyor of the fake news.
"The United States intelligence community assesses with low to moderate confidence that Russian intelligence officers sought to encourage Taliban attacks on U.S. and coalition personnel in Afghanistan in 2019 and perhaps earlier," a senior administration official said, according to the readout of a call with reporters in the Daily Beast.
Officials said their conclusion of "low to moderate confidence" in the story, which effectively means it’s at best unproven and potentially false, came "in part because it relies on detainee reporting," an often unreliable source of intelligence on which to base such explosive claims.
As the story picked up traction in the corporate press, however, Cheney appeared to sense a prime opportunity to capitalize on what was treated as a scandal, to not only undermine Trump, but also justify a prolonged military presence in the region while the administration took steps to pull out. Neither to Cheney, nor legacy media, appeared to hesitate due to the claims’ poor sourcing.
The viral public post below generated a series of news stories in major publications including Axios and The Hill, and was cited in dozens of others while catching airtime on national networks as an admonishment to the president of her own party.

I’ve been responding to republican text solicitations for $ support with admonitions to pound sand for their utter lack of spine as the cou try was stolen out from under us. Cheney, Romney, Murkowski, Sasse, even Pence, can all blow off. I’ll celebrate when they reach room temperature.

It’s easy enough to send donations directly to pro-Trump politicians — both those already in office and fighting against Democrat machinations and those running to primary NeverTrumpers like the honourable Rep. Cheney — in order to reshape both the Republican Party and the makeup of Congress to our taste. Damning them all equally guarantees the current situation will only get worse.

Is anybody compiling a list of Trump-worthy candidates? I gave to Devin Nunes and Ted Cruz in 2020, for example.

Is anybody compiling a list of Trump-worthy candidates?
Nobody perfect, Bobby, but search the Rantburg archives for Rep. Dan Crenshaw and friends. A number of Republican governors look worthy, all three Republican candidates for senator from Ohio, that sweet former Democrat who became a strong Republican Trump supporter who is running for governor of Georgia, Hershel Walker, the former Democrat mayor who became a Trump Republican — I think he is Latino, my congressman (Warren Davidson, Ohio district 8), who is nothing like his predecessor John Boehner... So many possibilities, most of which I’m not aware of. :-)
[NYPOST] Once more unto the breach.On Thursday, Facebook decided its users should not be able to share a New York Post article about the property buying habits of one of the founders of Black Lives Matter.
This is the third time we’ve tangled with social media giants in the past year. In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, we published a column that suggested the virus could have leaked from a Chinese virology lab. Facebook’s "fact checkers" decided this was an opinion you weren’t allowed to have, and blocked the article. Today, it’s a commonly discussed theory, with officials from former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield to CNN ...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for... ’s Sanjay Gupta saying it can’t be discounted. Even the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has said it can’t be ruled out.
In October, we published a series of articles about a laptop Hunter Biden ......son of President Joe: cashiered from the Navy, a crackhead, wheeler dealer, leg humper, and general all around ne'er do well. We're supposed to feel sorry for himm..... left at a Delaware repair shop. Twitter suspended our account. You probably know how that ended. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey admitted to politicians months later it was a "total mistake."
We were right both times. We’re right this time, too.

Have you ever read the story that the movie Roller ball (75) was made from. It might enlighten many to where we are already headed. Corporations (Media included) taking control of our governments and lives to steer us in their wanted directions.
eg... Jonathan goes to a library and asks for books about the corporation and history. He finds that all books have been digitized and "edited" to suit the corporations, and are now stored on supercomputers at large protected corporate locations..... to find out how the corporations make their decisions, instead of finding an explanation he encounters doubletalk, exposing the fragility, imperfections, and impermanence of volatile memory, electronic records, and digitized encyclopedic knowledge
BTW: My kids having seen the 1975 version like myself.
Started early collecting their own sizeable home libraries. Which include older books, pre-1970 printed History & many Fact based books.
Don't laugh .... But Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Collection (30+ Volumes each with 300+ pages) , tends to contain more proven facts than any college history book I have fact checked the past 30 years.
At some point we’ll have to make that an auto-translate for Kabuki for the rubes. The House votes for a lot of things that never go any farther, and aren’t intended to.

Why stop at DC? You can make Baltimore, NYC, San Francisco, Portland, Austin, Atlanta, Chicago and make a number of other shithole cities into states with equal ease, and load up the Senate with 20 more perpetuate Democrat Senators. Hell, just pass a Voting Rights Act that only Party Members get to vote and you can quite pretending all together. Power corrupts absolutely, and we are there it seems my friends.
[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] Congresswoman Betty McCollum of Minnesota will introduce a bill that would restrict Israel from using US funds to violate Paleostinians’ rights, official Paleostinian Authority news agency Wafa reported.
Introducing a bill in the House is easy. Getting it passed is a good deal harder, and getting it also passed in the Senate so that it can go to the president for signing is harder yet.
Paleostinian institutions have launched a pressure campaign to communicate with Congress members to sign the bill, which is backed by major and active US sectors and organizations, Wafa noted.
McCollum issued a statement on Thursday after introducing the "Defending the Human Rights of Paleostinian Children and Families Living Under Israeli Military Occupation Act."
McCollum’s legislation prohibits Israel from using US taxpayer dollars in the Occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem for the military detention, abuse, or ill-treatment of Paleostinian minors in Israeli military detention.
It also bans supporting the seizure and destruction of Paleostinian property and homes in violation of international humanitarian law or extending any assistance or support for Israel’s unilateral annexation of Paleostinian territory in violation of international humanitarian law.
In a separate letter, she called on Congress members "who are committed to promoting human rights ...not to be confused with individual rights, mind you... , peace, and justice for the Paleostinians" to endorse this bill.
The legislation is highly supported by representatives of coalitions that include dozens of US churches, the J Street group, Jewish Voice for Peace Action, and several Paleostinian-US institutions.
These organizations include the "Adalah Justice Project" and the "Human Rights Organization for Paleostine," as well as Moslem organizations, such as the "American Moslems for Paleostine."
Paleostinian institutions operating in the US support McCollum. The Paleostinian American Council has recently organized a fundraising campaign for her re-election.
The Council’s administrative board member, Sinan Shakdeeh, has revealed that an event will be held to push for enforcing the bill and convince other congress members to sign it.
This was agreed upon during a meeting held last week between Paleostinian institutions and McCollum’s political advisors.
