    Last month the Media Equalizer (MEQ) reported on a story regarding the radical and violent Antifa group By Any Means Necessary (BAMN) and a court case the group lost . BAMN’s leader, Yvette Felarca, had a temporary restraining order against Troy Worden, president of the Berkeley College Republicans withdrawn after attorney Mark Meuser of the Dhillon Law Group successfully argued for its removal. The order impeded Worden’s ability to move about the college freely and exercise his First Amendment rights on campus. Yesterday, Worden filed a motion for more than $100,000 in damages against Felarca. Worden also asked the court...

    Former President Barack Obama’s oldest daughter, Malia, was accepted to Harvard last spring. According to reports, Melia has taken well to the campus in recent months. The 19-year-old has used the time to settle in to campus after a gap year filled with interesting news stories. Malia was filmed in a series of interesting circumstances at the music festival Lollapalooza in April. Her 2016 internship for now infamous sexual predator Harvey Weinstein’s company also made headlines in the midst of the movie mogul’s downfall. In recent days, the tabloids have reported on Malia allegedly smoking and making out with a...

    Ivanka Trump sparked a similar fuss earlier this month while visiting Japan ahead of her father's 11-day tour of Asia. "Ivanka Trump dons bright pink miniskirt for Japan speech: Chic or inappropriate?" wrote the Bay Area News Group. Yahoo News blamed the controversy on the Twitter users. The site wrote: "The Japanese have been huge fans of Ivanka Trump‘s style, but the miniskirt she wore to a women’s conference in Tokyo may have changed that. Wearing a $1,960, bubble-gum pink Miu Miu crepe jacket with a matching miniskirt, Ivanka, 36, took the podium at the World Assembly for Women on...

    Happy Thanksgiving from Tiffany Trump! If you've been low-key wondering what the holidays look like in the White House or have been secretly guessing what Trump's kin are up to today, ponder no more. Tiffany Trump's Thanksgiving Instagram post says she's spending it "in silence letting sucess be her noise." Listen, I don't know the girl. I imagine it's pretty hard to be Donald Trump's daughter. I'm not here to knock her decisions. Earlier this week, Tiff joined her family at the annual turkey pardoning where she took some adorable pictures hanging out with her half-sis Ivanka, and her niece,...

  • How Thanksgiving Celebrates The Birth Of American Free Enterprise

    This time of the year, whether in good economic times or bad, is when Americans gather with their families and friends and enjoy a Thanksgiving meal together. It marks a remembrance of those early Pilgrim Fathers who crossed the uncharted ocean from Europe to make a new start in Plymouth, Massachusetts. What is less appreciated is that Thanksgiving also is a celebration of the birth of free enterprise in America.

    LEE — Because they couldn't find a dump open in Great Barrington, two youths threw a load of refuse down a Stockbridge hillside on Thanksgiving Day. Saturday, Richard J. Robbins, 19, of Poughkeepsie, N.Y., and Arlo Guthrie, 18, of Howard Beach N.Y., each paid a fine of $25 in Lee District Court after pleading guilty of illegally disposing of rubbish. Special Justice James E. Hannon ordered the youths to remove all the rubbish. They did so Saturday afternoon, following a heavy rain.

But of course I remembered 4Chan would have run rings around it by now. Can you point me to the answers?

    A blazing object believed to be a large meteor whizzed through the night sky over Japan on Nov. 21. It was visible for a few seconds around 9:30 p.m. and flashed with intense light a few times before vanishing, witnesses said. The stunning display sparked an explosion of activity on social media. ... Yasuo Shiba, 56, an executive of Nippon Meteor Society, noted the scarcity of such intensely bright objects over Japan, saying, “Such brightness could be observed only a handful of times in any given year.” “It lit up for about three seconds. It is almost certainly a fireball,”...

    McLennan County spent about $562,000 for sheriff’s deputies’ overtime during the first Twin Peaks trial. Commissioners said the county is still in good shape financially, despite having spent half its countywide contingency in the first two months of the fiscal year. After approving about $440,000 for the sheriff’s office two weeks ago to pay overtime related to the trial, commissioners approved $122,000 more for the same purpose Tuesday from the countywide contingency line item. There is $532,000 left of the original $1,016,000 in the countywide contingency line item, County Auditor Stan Chambers said. The county’s fiscal year 2018 started Oct....

    The first daughter attended the White House pardoning ceremony for the National Thanksgiving Turkey yesterday in a short leg-baring outfit, stealing the spotlight from the two turkeys being granted a second chance — Wishbone and Drumstick. For the occasion, Tiffany wore a short red tweed peacoat with hints of pink. She must have been wearing an even shorter dress or skirt underneath, as her legs were bare and accentuated by black pumps. The public was in large part shocked; multiple news outlets have reported not on the event, but on Tiffany’s outfit. Hollywood Life called her jacket “very short” and...
