McCarthyism: The Democrats’ treatment of Brett Kavanaugh 
Let’s consider what just happened this week. A qualified candidate for the Supreme Court was subjected to a humiliating public spectacle in the form of a show trial. Totally unsubstantiated allegations of sexual abuse were pushed out by the media in headlines and by the Democrats in the supposedly hallowed chambers of the Senate floor. (The Swamp)  This has become the modern day McCarthy show trials of the 1950s. The process for evaluating Republican Supreme Court nominees has become a search-and-destroy mission by those opposed to Trump. There is, and by the look of what happened this week, never be an honest evaluation of the candidate.  But what we did see was the perversion of politics and how to undermine a qualified candidate in the process.

Here are some key facts about Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations:
She doesn’t know what year it took place
She doesn’t know what month it took place
She has no idea where it took place
She doesn’t know how many boys were there
She doesn’t think any females were there
But she’s not sure, maybe there was a female there?


The Lies Continue

The Real Reason Why Democrats Want An FBI Investigation Into Brett Kavanaugh

The Kavanaugh hearing was a train wreck

Even From CNN
Jake Tapper, speaking with Wolf Blitzer stated that despite all the furious allegations hurled at Judge Brett Kavanaugh, there are “no contemporaneous corroborating evidence for any of the charges” against Kavanaugh.


Republican Senator Lindsey Graham gave the performance of his career, slamming the Democratic maneuvers as an effort to destroy a brilliant judge.

Honest Andy Only Speaks The Truth
Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo blamed the upstate weather for prompting New Yorkers to flee to other states. Cuomo told reporters Tuesday that while job losses and high taxes once drove people to leave New York, his administration has ended that trend and improved the local economic situation.
He said many of the New Yorkers leaving the state now are doing so for personal reasons or decisions that he called
"climate based."

Expanding Crackdown on Government Assistance
The Homeland Security Department has announced that immigrants who legally use public benefits like food assistance and Section 8 housing vouchers could be denied green cards under new rules aimed at keeping out people the administration deems a drain on the country.
The Department has announced they will now enforce a long-standing, but also long-ignored, requirement that immigrants not become a burden on American taxpayers.
Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, who signed the proposal, said it would push immigrants’ to be self-sufficient or to rely on their family or the business that’s sponsoring them to be in the U.S. for help, rather than to take assistance from the government. MORE


Violence, Neglect and False Advertising: The Fall of a Massachusetts Special Education School
When current and former staffers at Tri-County Schools for troubled youth gathered for a reunion this May at the Brass Cat bar in Easthampton, they did not know what was coming.
By the end of that month, the head of the nonprofit that operated Tri-County for 30 years would announce the school's abrupt closure for the next school year. Two months after that, the reasons for that closure would become clear: the release of a damning investigation which found repeated abuse of the often traumatized children the school was designed to serve.  MORE

But with a fatal attack in Wellfleet and a serious attack a month ago in Truro, Cape Cod’s embrace of everything shark has taken a dark turn. MORE

There are those who believe that The New York Times is biased against President Donald Trump. So this article will come as a bit of a shocker. The New York Times actually gives Trump some credit for a smart policy move. From The New York Times 

Surprise Surprise Suprise

The population of illegal migrants is roughly 22 million, or twice the establishment estimate of 11 million, say three professors from Yale University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The shocking estimate will force establishment politicians and pro-migration advocates to recalculate the estimated impact of the huge illegal population on wages and salaries, on crime rates, welfare consumption, rental and real-estate prices, productivity rates, and the distribution of job-creating investment funds to coastal vs. heartland states.

The Redemption of Sinead O'Connor 
Twenty six years ago in 1992, just before a commercial break, Sinead O'Connor grabbed a photo of the pope, held it up to the camera, tore it in half, and declared that “Good will triumph over evil” and noted that we should “Fight the real enemy.”
Pedophilia as we now know has long been rampant in the Catholic Church. However, until recently these monsters in priests’ clothing have acted under the cover of the church—their misdeeds swept away, the children ignored, and their abuse allowed to continue. Back in the day when Sinead tore up the Popes picture I thought she was crazy and that she ruined her career over nothing. .As more of the corruption and abuses of the past now  comes to light, it turns out she was right after all, but no one was listening. B
esides the huge Scandals in the Church, that have come to light in the U.S. recently, there are now problems worldwide being that are being exposed.

In Ireland
Pope Francis has begged forgiveness for members of the Catholic Church's hierarchy who "kept quiet" about clerical child sex abuse.


The Dutch Catholic church is accused of widespread sexual abuse cover-up
20 of 39 Dutch cardinals, bishops and auxiliaries ‘covered up sexual abuse, allowing perpetrators to cause many more victims’, report says


Germany has its own Catholic Church sex abuse scandal
Over the past seven decades, 3,677 children were sexually abused by around 1,670 Catholic church workers in Germany, the New York Times reports.

Man nearly loses penis after kicking dog in Spain
It happened in the early hours of 12 September. The cries of pain of a Senegalese citizen were heard throughout the neighborhood of Santa Teresa Street in the town of Reus, shortly after midnight.
Local police arrived and found the man writhing in pain gesturing to his crotch. A local resident explained to the police how the African became wounded shortly before they arrived.
The witness said that the man kicked the dog of a local resident and the dog then retaliated. The dog clamped his teeth on the attacker’s penis and then his hand as the man tried to push the animal away.
An ambulance arrived shortly after the police to Santa Teresa Street, where the wounded man was treated. Medical professionals could see that the victim had serious injuries to his penis.
The tearing of part of the skin and wounds in the glans and foreskin were caused by the animal’s teeth, which pierced through the man’s trousers and fully reached the reproductive organ.
The injured man was brought to Sant Joan de Reus hospital but once there, doctors recommended a transfer. He was then referred to the Joan XXIII hospital in Tarragona, as his injuries required reconstructive surgery and urology. He is recovering in a medical centre in Tarragona. This is the translated piece....... you can find the original article here

Self Driving Cars Can't Handle Rain, Sleet or Snow
As things stand today, the driverless car of the future can’t handle more than a dusting of snow.
It’s a known problem in the field, and vaguely embarrassing when the end result is supposed to be robots sophisticated enough to navigate the uncertainties of traffic and improve on lackluster human perception. In Boston, where NuTonomy has been road testing autonomous vehicles in cooperation with city planning officials, snow and seagulls have emerged as two of the biggest obstacles. Via: Bloomberg:
