  • Pelosi Calls Herself A Street Fighter But Is Surrounded By Security

    Pelosi Calls Herself A Street Fighter But Is Surrounded By Security

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D) made some unbelievable comments in an interview with USA Today this week, per normal. Pelosi, 81, made the statement that she would have been able to fend off the rioters who stormed U.S. Capitol Building on January 6.

    “Well, I’m pretty tough. I’m a street fighter,” Pelosi responded when she was asked whether she was frightened during the moments of the U.S. Capitol riots, “They would have had a battle on their hands.”

    Pelosi then went on to remark that she would have used her 4-inch-high stilettos as weapons to fight off the rioters.

    “I was never personally afraid because I had so much security for myself,” she said. “I was afraid for everybody else, and I’ll never forgive them the trauma that they caused to the staff and the members. It was just overwhelming, just overwhelming. You know, our staff are largely young. They come here with the sense of idealism and just love that they’re working in the Capitol.”

    Pelosi said Congress’s only goal is to find out “the truth” about the events that unfolded that day.

    The Speaker of the House was under fire previously when her hypocrisy concerning the riots at the Capitol compared to the riots in Wisconsin as a display of democracy back in 2011.

    Pelosi was in the news earlier this week based on her latest biography.

    Axios highlighted details from the book:

    • Pelosi unloads on the Squad, at one point adopting a child-like voice when discussing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and offers the Squad this blunt advice: “You’re not a one-person show. This is the Congress of the United States.”

    • Pelosi scoffs at President Obama for not being able to deliver his home state votes for Obamacare — “Why are we having a problem with Illinois?” — and bristles at Obama getting sole credit for the deals she got through Congress.

    • The speaker said she learned the art of politics from her father, Baltimore Mayor Thomas D’Alesandro: “What I learned from my father was everything … I breathed it in … Politics is every minute of every day. It is part of you.”

  • CNN Crew Attacked At Protest With BLM And Forced To Retreat From Scene

    CNN Crew Attacked At Protest With BLM And Forced To Retreat From Scene

    Mainstream media mogul CNN has numerous stories over the different media stations for their coverage of far-left riots and for the undercover videos that were released that show a director at the network admitting to creating false “propaganda” to destroy Republicans.

    But karma does eventually catch up to everyone. A recent video shows CNN camera crew members who were reporting on Black Lives Matter supporters who gathered outside a police station in Minneapolis on Wednesday evening were attacked and forced to run from the scene after being assaulted.

    “Man part of CNN crew for CNN reporter @miguelmarquez was hit in the head by a protester at the #BLM protest in Brooklyn Center, Minn,” journalist Andy Ngo wrote on Twitter. “He falls to the ground from the assault.”

    Ngo later said that the entire camera crew was “violently chased away from the #BLM protest in Brooklyn Center, Minn.”

    This isn’t the first time that CNN has been targeted by the far-left audience who they continue to report too. Last summer during the violent Black Lives Matter riots that rocked all of America, “radical extremists” attacked CNN’s headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. Those “radical extremists” can be seen in the videos below shattering the glass windows throughout the building and throwing explosives inside the building.

    As CNN reported on the riots following the death of Daunte Wright, a man walked up to the reporter and unleashed the truth on the network.

    “What I think about this, it’s all the press and all the extra s*** y’all do, makes this worse,” the man responded. “When people want to protest, they shouldn’t do it in front of a f***in’ police sta–, yeah, courthouse, s*** like that. You get what the f*** I’m saying? Y’all need to get up out of here with all that twisting that the media and s***. I don’t care if you’re live or not, get away from here with all that media s*** that y’all doing.”

  • Republicans Are Really Putting The Pressure On VP Harris To Visit The Border

    Republicans Are Really Putting The Pressure On VP Harris To Visit The Border

    While the Biden administration continues to deal with the growing “crisis” at the border many lawmakers, including Representative Chuck Fleischmann, are pushing for Vice President Kamala Harris to visit the U.S.-Mexico border as soon as possible.

    Members of Congress claim President Biden ordered Harris to lead “efforts to stem migration across the U.S.-Mexico border.”

    “There is no substitute for seeing overcrowded migrant facilities in person and speaking directly with our border agents and officers who are dealing with this crisis on the human level every day,” Fleischmann, ranking member on the House Appropriations Committee’s Homeland Security Subcommittee, wrote.

    He added that lawmakers “are greatly concerned about the Biden administration’s ability or willingness to respond to this humanitarian crisis when neither the President nor the Vice President has gone to the Southwest border to assess this crisis for themselves.”

    “We invite you to make the journey to the southern border and to work with Congress to find solutions to mitigate this humanitarian and national security crisis in order to protect our nation,” Fleischmann continued.

    The Tennessee Republican, along with GOP Reps. John Katko of New York, Diana Harshbarger of Tennessee, Carlos Gimenez of Florida and Dan Bishop of North Carolina, as well as Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Ashley Hinson of Iowa, signed a Tuesday letter to the vice president.

    Fleishmann took the time to visit the border last month to see for himself how bad the conditions were at the migrant facilities. Many other Republican leaders have also done the same. Republican members of the House and Senate are demanding answers regarding the poor conditions at the border.

    White House press secretary Jen Psaki says there are no planned “trips to outline or preview” in regard to Harris’s plans to visit the border.

  • Biden Admin Is Now Bribing Americans To House Migrant Children

    Biden Admin Is Now Bribing Americans To House Migrant Children

    The newest one of the Biden administration policies to deal with the border crisis is going to cost the American people millions of dollars alone. Biden has offered thousands of federal employees four months of paid leave as a “bribe” if they’ll offer their help in caring for migrant children who have crossed the border illegally.

    Federal employees are estimated to have an annual salary of around $77,000 dollars. Four months of paid leave would equal a little more than $25,000 dollars. Only 20% of federal workers make less than $50,000 dollars.

    An email from the administration to the federal workers has been leaked to the New York Times calling for help with the “Unaccompanied Alien Children.”

    “The desperate plea landed this week in the email inboxes of employees in government agencies like the Department of Homeland Security and NASA: Will you consider taking a four-month paid leave from your job to help care for migrant children in government-run shelters packed with new arrivals at the border?” the Times reported.

    “The request to much of the federal workforce came from the Department of Health and Human Services, which is at the heart of a frantic effort by the Biden administration to keep up with a surge in young people crossing the southwestern border hoping to reunite with relatives already in the United States,” the paper wrote.

    Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Sunday said on Fox News that he thinks the number of UACs, migrant children, will be higher than the 35,000 if the border crisis continues to spiral out of control for the Biden administration.

    Abbott called out the Biden Administration on the complaints of sexual abuse at the Freeman Coliseum, a detention center in San Antonio, that many Texas child welfare agencies had received.

    “This facility is a health and safety nightmare,” Abbott said. “The Biden administration is now presiding over the abuse of children. To end this abuse, the Biden administration must immediately shut down this facility.”

    But White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said the White House has no plans to shut down the facility.

    “Well, first we take safety and the well-being of children in our care very seriously, hence our earlier conversation about the funding spent to keep them safe during the pandemic,” Psaki said. “His claims will be looked into and investigated by the Department of Health and Human Services.”

    She added: “Currently we have no basis for his call to shut down the San Antonio Freeman Coliseum as an intake site but we will of course — we take these allegations seriously and they will be investigated.”

  • Deadly J&J Vaccine Pulled From Production Sending The CDC Into A Panic

    Deadly J&J Vaccine Pulled From Production Sending The CDC Into A Panic

    There has been a recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Tuesday morning to pause the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.

    As of now, there is an investigation on whether the vaccine is linked to six cases in the U.S. alone “of a rare & severe type of blood clot.” Over more than 6.8 million people have been administered the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

    All six of those with the adverse reaction were females between the ages of 18 and 48. “One woman died and a second woman in Nebraska has been hospitalized in critical condition,” a New York Times report stated.

    “Today FDA and @CDCgov issued a statement regarding the Johnson & Johnson #COVID19 vaccine. We are recommending a pause in the use of this vaccine out of an abundance of caution,” started a Twitter thread from the FDA.

    Johnson & Johnson said in a statement: “We are aware that thromboembolic events including those with thrombocytopenia have been reported with Covid-19 vaccines. At present, no clear causal relationship has been established between these rare events and the Janssen Covid-19 vaccine.”

    “While the move was framed as a recommendation to health practitioners in the states, the federal government is expected to pause administration of the vaccine at all federally-run vaccination sites,” the Times reported. “Federal officials expect that state health officials will take that as a strong signal to do the same. Within two hours of the announcement, Gov. Mike DeWine of Ohio, a Republican, advised all health providers in his state to temporarily stop giving Johnson & Johnson shots.”

    “As of [April 12], 6.8m+ doses of the J&J vaccine have been administered in the U.S. CDC & FDA are reviewing data involving 6 reported U.S. cases of a rare & severe type of blood clot in individuals after receiving the vaccine. Right now, these adverse events appear to be extremely rare,” the FDA Twitter thread continued.

    “Treatment of this specific type of blood clot is different from the treatment that might typically be administered,” the FDA said. “CDC will convene a meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) on Wednesday to further review these cases and assess their potential significance. FDA will review that analysis as it also investigates these cases.”

    “Until that process is complete, we are recommending this pause,” the FDA announced. “This is important to ensure that the health care provider community is aware of the potential for these adverse events and can plan due to the unique treatment required with this type of blood clot.”

    The agency closed the thread, “#COVID19 vaccine safety is a top priority for the federal government, and we take all reports of health problems following COVID-19 vaccination very seriously.”

  • This State Just Announced A Grand Reopening For The Beginning Of June

    This State Just Announced A Grand Reopening For The Beginning Of June

    Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak just announced his plans to fully reopen all counties within the state to allow 100% capacity at the start of June.

    During a press conference, Sisolak said that all decisions made by the state were well thought out throughout the pandemic and laid out a path to return to a “more normal Nevada lifestyle” by June.

    “As with every decision I’ve had to make throughout this pandemic, I know many people will say this is too soon, others will say it’s not soon enough,” Sisolak said.

    Over the past month, the governor added, daily new cases have stabilized at relatively low levels while more residents have received COVID-19 vaccines.

    As of May, statewide social distancing regulations will be ended and handed over to counties along without authority over other mitigation efforts, but residents will still be required to wear masks for the time being.

    Sisolak highlighted several goals, including getting Nevadans back to work and restarting conventions, which he suggested would accelerate the state’s economic recovery.

    Sisolak also said federal health agencies’ recommendation on Tuesday to pause injections of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine did not affect the plans.

    Several states eased lockdown restrictions to varying degrees earlier this year, including Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi.

    However, infection rates in the U.S. are ticking up even as officials race to administer doses of COVID-19 vaccines to prevent serious illness and additional death.

    There are still some concerns about the potential spread of more contagious variants in high-risk communities as well.

    So far, about 22.7% of the population has been fully vaccinated, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

  • Weinstein Fighting For His Life In Prison, Still Facing Rape Charges In L.A.

    Weinstein Fighting For His Life In Prison, Still Facing Rape Charges In L.A.

    Weinstein has had some victories lately in his cases in New York from his legal team. He is scheduled to appear in court today in Erie Country, New York, where he will find out whether he is being extradited to Los Angeles. The extradition is based on a grand jury that has reportedly issued a “secret indictment.”

    “Harvey Weinstein is due to appear virtually before an Erie County Court Judge on Monday at 2 p.m. for an extradition proceeding, the Erie County District Attorney’s Office announced,” according to local media in Erie County. “He appeared virtually last year in August for an extradition proceeding, however, the proceeding ended up being postponed until December.”

    “In December 2020, his lawyers and prosecutors agreed to postpone the efforts to send him to California again,” the outlet added.

    The famous media mogul, Harvey Weinstein, is currently serving 23 years in prison on rape and sexual assault charges in New York. He has recently appealed these convictions earlier this month, but now a grand jury has “secretly indicted” Weinstein and is expected to facilitate Weinstein’s extradition to Los Angeles, California to face more similar charges.

    “The indictment is virtually identical to the criminal complaint, which had been filed in January 2020 by former DA Jackie Lacey,” the outlet reported Sunday. “The disgraced movie mogul, who is already serving a 23-year sentence in New York for rape and sexual assault, faces 11 counts in California, including rape and sexual battery involving five incidents that allegedly took place between 2004 and 2013. If convicted, he faces up to 140 years behind bars.”

    “LA prosecutors allege that Weinstein raped an Italian model at another Beverly Hills hotel on Feb. 18, 2013, just a day before the attack against Young. The alleged assaults of the other three women all took place at Beverly Hills hotels,” Fox continued.

    According to experts who spoke with Fox, the “secret indictment” will “streamline the proceedings” by allowing prosecutors “to go straight to trial, rather than doing it under a criminal complaint that would then require a preliminary hearing.” Prosecutors are expected to present Weinstein with the new indictment along with an arrest warrant.

    “This process will eliminate the need for a preliminary hearing which is kind of a minitrial like we saw in the OJ case: there was the trial before the trial,” one defense attorney told Fox, noting that the “secret indictment” process is used only in a handful of cases. “With this move and under the law that allows the borrowed custody, the California state can get custody of the New York’s inmate and must commence trial within 120 days.”

    Harvey Weinstein appealed his conviction for rape and sexual assault early last week, on the theory that the judge made “several errors” that ultimately denied Weinstein a fair trial.

  • Pelosi Ripped AOC And Members Of The Squad In Revealing New Book

    Pelosi Ripped AOC And Members Of The Squad In Revealing New Book

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has some humbling words for New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other members of the “Squad.” According to quotes of a book written by award-winning journalist Susan Page, Pelosi took on a “child-like tone” when discussing Ocasio-Cortez and offered the following advice to members of the Squad:

    “You’re not a one-person show. This is the Congress of the United States,” Axios reported.

    An excerpt from the book published by USA Today – where Page serves as chief of the Washington bureau – recounts an interview Page conducted with Pelosi in July 2019, after her dispute with the Squad had “exploded.”

    “Her anger at the four new progressive congresswomen was palpable,” Page wrote.

    As previously reported by Fox News, during a July 2019 press conference, Pelosi pushed back on questions about President Donald Trump’s efforts to characterize the progressive Squad members as the face of the Democratic Party, saying “let’s not waste our time on that.”

    At the time, members of the Squad were upset with Pelosi, whom they alleged was singling them out because they were women of color. Pelosi had made comments about the group’s prowess on social media amid their protest of an emergency border aid bill.

    Spokespeople for Pelosi and Ocasio-Cortez did not return Fox News’ request for comment about the released details from the book.

    The excerpt published by USA Today also details Pelosi’s disappointment that Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election to Donald Trump, allegedly calling his election “stunningly scary.”

    The book, titled “Madam Speaker: Nancy Pelosi and the Lessons of Power,” is set to be released later this month.

    It is based on over 150 exclusive interviews, as well as in-depth discussions with the Speaker herself, according to the book’s description on Amazon.

  • One Dead And Many Injured After Deadly Storm Sweeps through Louisiana

    One Dead And Many Injured After Deadly Storm Sweeps through Louisiana

    A deadly storm swept through Louisiana St. Landry’s Parish in the early morning hours on Saturday. One man was found dead in the path of destruction from the storm.

    Jose Antonio Higareda, 28, was killed in the storm and seven other people were reported with serious injuries. At least eight homes were devastated with many vehicles thrown into the middle of fields.

    Bellard said he couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the destruction of the village when he gave an update of the aftermath of the storm. He added that the trailer of an 18-wheeler is in the middle of the street where most of the destruction occurred.

    “This is unbelievable. It’s devastating. You see homes that are just not there anymore,” the official said.

    “It’s just unbelievable to see what we’re looking at right now. We were very fortunate,” Bellard continued.

    “Just a little ways down here farther north, they had two other homes where the roofs were taken off. The people in the house actually went into the bathroom and into the bathtub whenever they heard it. And they survived.” He added.

    “So we were very fortunate to hear that news.”

  • NFL TEXANS QB Lawyers Admits Massages Sometimes Resulted In “Consensual” Sex

    NFL TEXANS QB Lawyers Admits Massages Sometimes Resulted In “Consensual” Sex

    Texans quarterback DeShaun Watson has been facing several accusations of sexual misconduct, including exposing himself to women during massage sessions, among other allegations over the last couple of months for a total of 22 civil lawsuits.

    During a press conference after a pair of victories for Watson’s legal team, after a Texas judge ruled the woman accusing the quarterback of sexual misconduct must reveal herself, attorney Rusty Hardin admitted that consensual sexual encounters occurred with massage therapists. However, Hardin insisted that Watson did not coerce any massage therapists or used his celebrity status to persuade the therapists to provide consent.

    Hardin emphasized that the entire situation was a “new model for extortion.” He went on to point out Ashley Solis for making a settlement demand of $100,000 and claimed that she was not proceeding with a civil lawsuit “just for money.”

    For all 22 civil lawsuits that Watson faces it seems almost impossible for Watson to prevail due to the very low standard of proof in civil court needed. Each of these cases will come down to whether the jury believes the accuser or Watson.

    Watson found strange support from another legendary NFL player earlier this week when O.J. Simpson shared his two cents on the cases that Watson faced.

    Simpson has had his fair share of accusations and dealings with officers as well. He has been accused of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman. Simpson was later convicted of kidnapping and armed robbery in 2007 which led to one of the famous police chases of all time.

    “I’m a big fan of Deshaun’s — the man has always had a sterling reputation and I’m a guy that knows what accusations can do to your reputation,” Simpson remarked while laughing into the camera.

    “Anyway, I’m a little confused. Twenty-two women have come out accusing him of wrongdoing and I’m a little confused because in my entire life I think I’ve had four massage therapists and two of those were guys. I’m a little confused as to why he went through so many of them and I’m sure there’s a lot that have not accused him of anything,” the former NFL star said.

    “I would hate not to see him play again. I know we have to let the system work itself out. But my prayers are with him.”
