Vice President Kamala Harris' checkered prosecution record during her tenure as California attorney general is resurfacing as her bid for the White House heats up. From locking up parents whose children had chronically missed school to supporting a bail fund that let violent Black Lives Matter rioters out of jail in 2020, Harris' approach to criminal justice is facing fresh scrutiny. America First Legal (AFL), a nonprofit conservative legal watchdog group, launched seven investigations into Harris' prosecutorial background on Thursday afternoon,... Through public records requests to the California Attorney General's Office, AFL is investigating Harris for failure to comply with...

Vice President Kamala Harris’ past is going to thoroughly haunt her up to November’s General Election should she officially secure the Democratic Party’s nomination for the presidency. While her campaign team would desperately like you to see her as the preferable alternative to former President Donald Trump, there is simply too much evidence to the contrary floating around the internet.

A Missouri woman who spent 43 years in prison after incriminating herself in a 1980 murder while she was a psychiatric patient has been freed from prison despite attempts in the last month by Missouri’s attorney general to keep her behind bars. Sandra Hemme, 64, was the longest held wrongly incarcerated woman known in the U.S., according to her legal team at the Innocence Project, after she was found guilty of killing 31-year-old library worker Patricia Jeschke more than 40 years ago. But a judge overturned the conviction last month, agreeing that her lawyers had established evidence of her innocence...

With 60 razor-sharp teeth and jaws so powerful they could crush a car, the King of the Dinosaurs would already have been a terrifying sight.But if that wasn't enough, the T. Rex may have been 70 per cent heavier than previously thought – weighing up to 15 tonnes – according to a study...The palaeontologists found that the largest known T. Rex fossils probably fall in the 99th percentile – representing the top 1 per cent of body size – but finding one would require excavating fossils for another 1,000 years...Meanwhile, a separate study suggests that the T. Rex may also...

Ngo further noted that according to archived social media posts made by Carrozza, it is apparent that the animator “is...

The impacts of human-caused climate change are so overwhelming they’re actually messing with time, according to new research. Polar ice melt caused by global warming is changing the speed of Earth’s rotation and increasing the length of each day, in a trend set to accelerate over this century as humans continue to pump out planet-heating pollution, according to the study published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The changes are small — a matter of milliseconds a day — but in our high-tech, hyperconnected world have an important impact on computing systems we have come to...

American Thinker ^ | 07/17/2024 | Olivia Murray
Joe Biden’s “migrant crime” trend continues to surge, so it’s only appropriate we brief ourselves on the latest developments; I’ve got three in particular to mention.Random killing sprees. Now this seems to be a theme; just two days ago I wrote a blog on federal government whistleblowers revealing the processes by which Biden’s government aids the child trafficking industry, and the fact that MS-13 gang members were “sponsoring” unaccompanied minor children. If you recall, these thugs actually formed “hunting parties” to target and kill random civilians in bids to boost notoriety. But, here’s another instance, from a report via Breitbart...

[Catholic Caucus] The Neo-Modernist Principles of Thought and the Traditional MindsetThose who have such an attitude towards the past will also demonstrate care for what they receive as an inheritance from their ancestors: the rite, the worship, and, above all, the faith transmitted through the mediation of Holy Tradition. They do not look towards the future except after they have carefully and respectfully learned all that has been passed down from the past.When preparing some articles about the liturgical revolution as reflected in the modification of the Holy Altar’s form and position, I discovered an article published in the Jesuit...

Just The News ^ | 12 July 2024 | Kenneth Schrupp
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a measure to impose a curfew on businesses in the city’s Tenderloin District over concerns that open businesses are hotspots for crime, drug dealing and drug use. The legislation also noted how the city’s police officers are typically outnumbered by large groups of “people engaged in illegal activity,” suggesting crime in the area's disarray has grown past law enforcement’s ability to control.
 

Biden loses his train of thought, calls Harris ‘Vice President Trump’, Calls Zelensky 'President Putin' in solo press conference

CNBC ^ | 07/11/2024 | Rebecca Picciotto
President Joe Biden on Thursday mistakenly referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as “Vice President Trump” in the opening question of his highly-anticipated solo press conference in Washington. “Look, I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president [if] I think she’s not qualified to be president,” Biden said, confusing his second-in-command with his November election opponent, former President Donald Trump. The president misspoke and appeared to lose his train of thought several times as he fielded reporters’ questions. In another blunder, Biden wrongly referred to his chief of staff as “my commander in chief” before catching his...

San Francisco Chronicle ^ | July 10, 2024 | Rachel Swan and Dan Kopf
In recent months it seemed that Oakland — a city famously grappling with a rise in crime — had course-corrected in remarkable fashion. Statistics published by the police department showed year-to-year crime had dropped by 33% overall by the end of April, a dramatic shift after last year’s spike. Mayor Sheng Thao praised the city for turning a corner. Gov. Gavin Newsom quoted the 33% figure in a news release touting Oakland’s partnership with the California Highway Patrol. The news spread through social media posts and optimistic headlines, including stories in the Chronicle. But a new Chronicle review of Oakland...

A district attorney in California has threatened to punish a Target store for repeatedly reporting thefts at the store in the crime-ridden state. Sacramento City Attorney Susana Alcala Wood's office said the retail store located at 2505 Riverside Blvd. in Land Park will be fined and slapped with a public nuisance charge if it continues to call police when there is a theft at the store. A person familiar with the incident, who asked not to be identified for fear of reprisal, told The Sacramento Bee that city officials warned that an administrative fine would also be charged.

An Idaho man named Ralph Ginorio spoke out against the Coeur d’Alene city council’s “measuring objective behavior” after approving a new hate crime ordinance, introducing a significant addition to the municipal code. The law was described as “draconian” by the Idaho Tribune, which argued it “will basically make it illegal to think the wrong way.” “If found guilty, you’ll be sentenced to ‘[re]education.'” “Dear North Idaho, you just lost your 1st Amendment right to Free Speech,” the Tribune added.

Delivery drivers in the South Bay say they're increasingly worried about becoming robbery targets. It's happening enough that at least one company, Core Mart, is now hiring armed guards to escort its drivers. ... Flavio Lopez works for another delivery company and said he wishes he had a guard or at least a second person to help him keep an eye on the merchandise. Lopez hasn’t been robbed, but he has had run-ins downtown. "Stuff you gotta deal with downtown," he said. "It is what it is."

A jaw-dropping video shows the moment nearly 100 robbers ransacked a California gas station in the middle of the night. Surveillance footage displays dozens of masked and hoodie-wearing thieves taking their sweet time to grab as much as they can carry just after 4:30am on Friday at the station in crime-ridden Oakland. The raid came just days after Oakland's progressive mayor bragged about a drop in crime in the hellhole city.

President Biden seemingly lost his train of thought as he stumbled through his very brief Independence Day speech at the White House barbeque Thursday — bizarrely claiming that highway congestion no longer exists and nearly calling nemesis Donald Trump his “colleague.” “I probably shouldn’t even say that … anyway,” *** Biden trailed off several times in his four-minute speech, which was peppered with slurring, despite having a teleprompter at his disposal. *** Biden compared World War I to the modern-day presidential race, questioning whether Americans would be willing to make the same sacrifice in his race against Trump — before...

The flood of illegal immigrants is starting to take effect on the crime situation. It's already bad with our homegrown bunch reared with little or no values, but now we have to deal with thousands out of the millions of illegal immigrants who not only have no values, they have been TAUGHT FROM THEIR YOUTH how to steal from and defraud others. A Spanish-speaking customer who just now stopped by told me he took another hard-working Hispanic friend from Austin to Houston to buy a 2023 Tacoma 4WD TRD pickup from an Hispanic. He made several mistakes, but that is...

A woman admitted that she and her mother laughed at her dad when they thought he was doing an impression of Joe Biden - before realizing he was actually having a stroke. Talor Byrne, known by her TikTok moniker Queen Tay, racked up over 3.5 million views with a video taken from the ICU after her father's medical emergency. 'I don't mean to laugh but my dad just had a stroke watching the presidential debate tonight and my mom said he started speaking gibberish and staggering,' she captioned the video.
