Full title: Cha-CHING! DNC Charges 2020 Dems Big Money For Access To Voter Data But That's Not Their Only Contingency The Democratic Party's field continues to grow, making it more difficult for lesser known candidates to set themselves a part from their competitors with greater name recognition and more money. The Democratic National Committee, however, is making things even tougher for their 2020 candidates by implementing a number of contingencies for access to DNC's voter database, BuzzFeed News reported. In order to get their hands on the 50-state database, the 22 Democrats must: • Agree to pay $175,000 for access...

Two hundred rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel on Saturday, and Israel's Iron Dome system intercepted dozens of them. Air raid sirens sounded in Gaza-area towns, as well as in Beit Shemesh and other Jerusalem-area towns. Rockets also landed in the courtyards of a home and school in Kiryat Gat. "We can confirm that the Palestinian Islamic Jihad together with Hamas are responsible for firing 200 rockets from Gaza at Israeli civilians over the last 8 hours," an IDF statement read. An 80-year-old woman was severely injured in Kiryat Gat, after suffering shrapnel wounds to her face. It is...

Venezuela’s ex-vice president and now the top confidant of Nicolas Maduro is said to have tried sneaking in Hezbollah militants into his country, made a business deal with a drug lord and became extremely wealthy as the once-rich country turned into an economic basket case. Tareck El Aissami has emerged as a hardliner of Maduro’s socialist regime as the country remains on the brink of an all-out civil war due to economic misery. **SNIP** But El Aissami, while not having the same scrutiny as Maduro, has long been the subject of various investigations both at home and in the U.S....

Devin Nunes Just Caught Robert Mueller Lying to American Public on Joseph Misfud

It’s been a little while since we checked in on New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand’s presidential campaign, probably because she’s been stuck in the trenches and polling in the vicinity of zero. But she’s still out there beating the bushes and trying to round up votes and campaign contributions. One of her latest campaign gimmicks involved getting out there with the regular people and playing some beer pong. No… seriously. This is a thing that actually happened. (Associated Press) Her first shot landed short and her teammate’s bounced away. But Kirsten Gillibrand’s second ping pong ball splashed home and she...

President Donald Trump in finally standing up for Conservatives on social media. On May 2, 2019 conservative commentators such as Alex Jones, Infowars, Paul Joseph Watson, Laura Loomer, and Milo Yiannopoulos were banned from Facebook and Instagram. These individuals have been some of the loudest and most effective advocates for President Trump’s America first principles. However, the censors in Silicon Valley weren’t having it. And they could also count on gatekeeping conservatives like Cabot Phillips to defend this politically witch hunt. BLP’s Tom Pappert covered Phillips’ establishment defense of Silicon Valley’s blatant political agenda. Even seasoned Never Trumper Erick Erickson...

Medal of Honor recipient Audie Murphy plays himself in “To Hell and Back.” (Universal)Never Surrender: WWII in the Movies is a 75-movie series airing on Turner Classic Movies in recognition of the 75th anniversary of D-Day. The series runs on Thursdays in May and June. TCM host Ben Mankiewicz visited the National World War II Museum in New Orleans to film the channel’s trademark introductions with the museum’s staff and noted WWII historian Lynne Olson. He also talked with us about the series and TCM’s unique relationship with its viewers. The month of May is devoted to movies about life...

So the President is shopping around the idea of a massive infrastructure bill. In fact, if you were following him on Twitter this morning he was talking it up once again. There is nothing easy about a USA Infrastructure Plan, especially when our great Country has spent an astounding 7 trillion dollars in the Middle East over the last 19 years, but I am looking hard at a bipartisan plan of 1 to 2 trillion dollars. Badly needed!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 4, 2019 Just one to two trillion, eh? Easy come, easy go, I suppose. But how do...

Two years after leaving office, Joe Biden couldn’t resist the temptation last year to brag to an audience of foreign policy specialists about the time as vice president that he strong-armed Ukraine into firing its top prosecutor. In his own words, with video cameras rolling, Biden described how he threatened Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in March 2016 that the Obama administration would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, sending the former Soviet republic toward insolvency, if it didn’t immediately fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin. “I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion.’ I’m going to be leaving here in, I...

Booker "Make America like Newark"

Members of the Senate Armed Services Committee expressed almost unanimous acclaim for Army Gen. James McConville as he testified before them Thursday to become that service branch's top officer, lauding a career so eminent that the committee chairman, Sen. Jim Inhofe, began the hearing by saying, "I can't imagine there's any opposition." McConville's tenure was exemplified in stacks of badges and ribbons adorning his crisp service dress that glittered under the lights of the Senate chamber, but it wasn't that particular uniform that caught the attention of the Oklahoma Republican and others on the dais. "Who can vote against a...

The city of San Francisco is suing the Trump administration over its new regulation allowing health care professionals to opt out of providing treatments they oppose.

Earlier this week we learned that the planned 50th anniversary revival of Woodstock had its investor funding withdrawn. There were concerns that the celebration simply would not be able to meet the high bar set back in 1969 by arguably the greatest music event of all time. Sometimes something is just so special it cannot be replicated. I have some appreciation for that after this past Saturday, when I had the opportunity to attend a rally held by President Trump in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The difference between our Rockstar President and Woodstock planners is that what they couldn’t pull off...

Facebook and Google increasingly influence Congress as the social media giants censor conservative and alternative voices, dominate the Internet, and violate Americans’ privacy. Facebook announced on Thursday that they have banned several conservative personalities such as Infowars host Alex Jones, Infowars contributor and YouTube personality Paul Joseph Watson, journalist and activist Laura Loomer, and Milo Yiannopoulus. The social media giant also banned Louis Farrakhan from its platforms. Facebook said that they banned these personalities because they were “dangerous.” Amid calls for greater regulation of social media companies’ potential anticompetitive behavior, censorship of conservative and alternative voices, and privacy violations, Facebook...

Bre Kidman, a Saco, ME attorney who enjoys spending weekends dressed as a "queer feminist mermaid" and splashing around in kiddie pools filled with glitter, recently announced a campaign run for the Maine Democratic Senate nomination in hopes of unseating incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. According to Steve Collins of the Sun Journal, "Kidman said they have been fat since they were 7, gay since age 10 and figuring out what it all means ever since." The attorney does not use traditional gender pronouns, Kidman instead asks people to use "they/them" as pronouns. “Like all other politicians, whether or not they want...

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump voiced confidence Saturday that North Korea’s Kim Jong Un would not “break his promise,” after South Korea said Pyongyang had launched several unidentified projectiles into the sea. “Anything in this very interesting world is possible, but I believe that Kim Jong Un fully realizes the great economic potential of North Korea, & will do nothing to interfere or end it,” Trump tweeted. “He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me. Deal will happen!”

When the “Russia collusion” scam failed so miserably as a means to take down this administration, liberal politicians and their media cronies got creative, coming up with ever more strained legal theories to justify their harassment of President Trump. The latest iteration is their effort to twist campaign finance laws to fit new, imagined crimes.A prime example of this wishful thinking is the attack on Donald Trump, Jr. over the infamous “Trump Tower Meeting.” Recall that a British publicist emailed Don Jr. in 2016, saying he would be meeting with some Russian citizens, and that Russian prosecutors possibly had “information...

A rally to denounce the perceived censorship of politically conservative views and speech by social media drew dozens of right-wing demonstrators and counterprotesters to San Francisco City Hall on Friday. Dubbed the “Demand Free Speech” rally, the event was intended to underscore the belief among many conservatives that companies like Google, Facebook and Twitter discriminate against right-wing viewpoints. Big tech companies have shown a clear bias against conservatives, they argue, as evidenced by the suspension or outright banning of right-wing users’ accounts.

There is a Chinese proverb, “Good things comes in pairs.” For the sake of equality, we might also say that bad things come in pairs as well. This last pair of weeks did not disappoint.Last week Joe Biden began and based his campaign for president of the United States on a fundamental mischaracterization of Antifa as “courageous” freedom-fighters, instead of depicting them for what they really are--political terrorists.This week Facebook and its subsidiary company Instagram announced they would not only ban fixtures of rightwing independent media—Alex Jones, Paul Joseph Watson, and Laura Loomer, among others—but also censor anyone who shares...
