Free Republic

A while back, a Freeper posted what I would call a photographic compilation of Michael and Barry before his transition to Michelle, along with the contemporary "package" pictures. The post was in a thread, the subject of which I cannot recall. Also, there were some pictures of "their" daughters and the similarity in appearance to a couple close to the Obamas. The material was great for showing the fraud of Barry and Michael. If anyone happens to remember this post or has the material, could you send me the link?

Actress Amber Tamblyn has claimed that the recent allegations of sexual assault and harassment against Harvey Weinstein would not have surfaced if Hillary Clinton had been elected last year. The 34-year-old star, who is very outspoken on the issue of sexual harassment, recently spoke to Cosmopolitan.com about how things have changed in Hollywood since Donald Trump was elected president. Amber argued that there has been a silver lining in living under the Trump administration, claiming that women are now feeling more free to speak out in cases of abuse. 'I think that without him being elected, if it had been...

Rep. Maxine Waters — the California Democrat who is one of President Donald Trump’s most vocal and prominent haters — will be dining on a plate full of crow this weekend after her prediction that the president was bluffing on his threat of Mexico tariffs backfired in spectacular fashion. All eyes were on the president the past few days as everyone waited to see what would happen regarding his threat to impose a 5 percent tariff on Mexico. One set of those eyes belonged to Waters, who tweeted Friday morning that “Dictator Trump” wouldn’t follow through on his threat. “Spineless...

The College Board plans to introduce an “adversity score” that will accompany an applicant’s SAT score in order to give college-admissions officers greater insight into how the applicant’s social and economic privilege may have contributed to their academic performance. The adversity score, which will be made available to colleges but not the students themselves, will reflect 15 different factors including the crime rate and average income level in a student’s neighborhood, the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday. The new metric is currently being used by 50 colleges and will likely expand to 150 schools this fall. “There are a number...

A Chinese live-streamer recently demonstrated to us all the dangers of attempting to eat a live octopus. The woman from the Jiangsu city of Lianyungang is a lover of seafood and decided to demonstrate this affinity through an odd challenge involving devouring a cephalopod while it’s still alive. However, in this case, her meal wasn’t about to go down so easy.

Former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates said Sunday that President Trump would likely be indicted on obstruction of justice if he were not president. “I’ve been a prosecutor for nearly 30 years and I can tell you I’ve personally prosecuted obstruction cases on far, far less evidence than this," Yates, whom Trump fired after she refused to defend his travel ban targeting several Muslim-majority countries, said on NBC's "Meet the Press." “I believe if he were not the president of the United States he would likely be indicted on obstruction.” Yates's comments come a few weeks after the redacted report...

California State University's campus in Long Beach is ditching its longtime mascot amid accusations of racism and officially moving to pick either a new symbol or have no mascot at all. The university ditched its "Prospector Pete" character in September after criticism that it was offensive to indigenous people.

Think about what happened here, about what is described in that report. The country’s elections were attacked by a foreign power. Russia is a vote suppressor. Understanding that,what motivation would this President have to move a finger to stop them? Or the Republican Party, for that matter? Theonly hope for accountability, perhaps before a court of law after Trump isno longer President, is theDemocratic Party that has the power to start impeachment proceedings. Should Democrats take impeachment off thetable, they would let Trump get away with it. It is that elementary. There is no guarantee that he will not repeat...

Minnesota police know a thing or two about snow, and they’d like you to know you should clean it off your car before you hit the road or it hits another vehicle. The Minnesota State Patrol tweeted a photo of a car that got pulled over recently for being almost entirely covered in snow, save for a small square of the windshield in front of the driver and the driver’s door window. “Don’t be this person when it snows. Please. Please. Please. A trooper stopped this car Feb. 14 in Elk River. Yes, they were cited. Sure, maybe the snow...

Former Trump campaign staffer Alva Johnson joined All In With Chris Hayes Tuesday night where she spoke about the lawsuit she filed against Donald Trump on Monday. In the lawsuit, Johnson alleges that Trump kissed her without consent before a campaign event in August of 2016, and that she was grossly underpaid while working on the campaign. Of the unwanted kiss, Johnson said she’d given Trump words of encouragement before the event and after a brief exchange he went in for a kiss.

New England Patriots safety Duron Harmon has announced he will not be joining his team at the White House to celebrate their victory in Super Bowl LIII.

For the third straight year, the New England Patriots are in the Super Bowl. After beating the Kansas City Chiefs, 37-31, in overtime in the AFC Championship game Sunday, Tom Brady and Bill Belichick have the Patriots in position to win their second Super Bowl in three years and third in five years. The 2019 Super Bowl is also a rematch of the title game from the 2001-2002 season, when the Patriots beat the then-St. Louis Rams, 20-17. The AFC champion Patriots and the NFC champion Rams will face off in Super Bowl LIII on February 3 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium...

Dispatches from Cowes, Isle of Wight, at an early hour this morning give unfavorable news from the Queen's bedside. The Queen is said to have been stricken with paralysis last night, and to be lying at death's door. A practical Regency is reported to have been created, the Prince of Wales receiving power to transact state business. Nearly all the members of the Royal Family were gathered at Osborne

Within months of the law’s passage, the state began borrowing hundreds of millions of dollars against the anticipated revenue. Bond documents claimed video gambling machines would raise $300 million each year to help cover the debt payments. It wasn’t until 2017, eight years after the legalization of video gambling, that the state came close to collecting that amount. By then, video gambling had brought in less than $1 billion to pay the bond debt — $1.3 billion short of what lawmakers anticipated. But the costs of video gambling had already exacted a heavy toll on the state.

Newly-elected Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the gift to conservatives that keeps on giving. Her ignorance is so profound that it still surprises us, even when we thought we had fully plumbed the depths of her vacuity. This tweet, with Candace Owens’s response, is a classic:

Police said earlier this week that the black box recovered from the vehicle registered a high speed of 104 mph.

If you’ve ever wanted to get a really good look at Uranus, then tonight is your best opportunity. Not only is the distant planet at the closest point to Earth in its orbit at the moment, but it’s also particularly easy to locate. The seventh planet from the sun can be found just to the left of the moon in the night sky all this week. The moon is starting to wane after last night’s full moon, but it will still be shining brightly in the sky. Helpful for locating the distant planet. Uranus lies south-west in the constellation of...

She’s really ‘committed’ to that new cause of hers, isn’t she? She couldn’t *possibly* have been just pandering to the crowds after the super-heated partisanship of the Kavanaugh hearings, could she? Yes, yes she could. We say that because for all of her ‘impassioned pleas’ for liberal fans to vote against that Tennessee candidate that ‘scares’ her so, she didn’t even register to vote, herself. At least, her name isn’t showing up in the register. Swift reportedly owns two homes in Nashville, Tennessee, both of which are in Davidson County. She also has several other residences in New York, Beverly...

Why St. Paul Called Some Disciples Stupid Msgr. Charles Pope • October 10, 2018 • The first reading for Thursday’s Mass (27th week of the year) contains St. Paul’s provocative assessment that some of us are stupid.The Greek word used is ἀνόητος (anóētos), which comes from a (without) + noiéō, (to think). Therefore, this refers to not thinking, not reasoning through a matter, being unmindful, or acting in a mindless, dense way. This is rendered in English as “stupid.”There are three reasons that he calls some people stupid:1. They have looked away from the Cross. The text says,O stupid...
