Bill Maher questions why Chicago’s crime wave isn’t addressed: ‘Why are you killing each other?’

by

By Lindsay Kornick

Bill Maher calls out Chicago crime wave: Its never addressed “Real Time” host Bill Maher discussed the black-on-black crime issue plaguing cities like Chicago and criticized how it isn’t addressed by Democratic leaders.

“Real Time” host Bill Maher called out the lack of attention to high Black-on-Black crime rates in cities such as Chicago during his show on Friday.

Hosting a panel with Brown University economist Glenn Loury and international relations scholar Daniel Bessner, Maher questioned the rise in crime in major cities and why it has not been addressed.

“Like Chicago: Most of the shootings are young Black men killing other young Black men. Is that not correct?” Maher asked.

After Loury confirmed it was true, Maher continued, “Okay, much more than what the cops do. Why doesn’t anybody talk about that? Why aren’t there a hundred giant Black celebrities who would have the respect of those people saying what are you doing to yourselves? Why are you killing each other?”  (Continue Reading)

Utah lawmaker’s home vandalized after he introduced bill to ban transgender surgeries: ‘Trannies bash back’

by

By Chris Pandolfo

A Utah state lawmaker’s home was vandalized this week with messages that indicate he was targeted because of his opposition to transgender medical treatments for minors.

Messages in red spray-painted on Republican state Sen. Mike Kennedy’s door read “fash” — short for fascist — and “These trannies bash back,” a phrase that uses a slur for transgender people. Kennedy shared a photograph of the vandalism in a post on Facebook.

Earlier this year, Kennedy sponsored SB16, legislation that bans transgender surgeries and puberty blockers for minors. The bill was signed into law by Gov. Spencer Cox in January. (Continue reading)

St. Louis prosecutor Kim Gardner scorched online after execution-style shooting of homeless man

by

by Danielle Wallace


St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner was torched online after a video went viral showing a suspect fatally shoot a homeless man execution-style in broad daylight in the Missouri city. 

Several social media users noted Gardner’s campaign was funded by George Soros, blaming the prosecutor for what they described as a sad state of rampant crime and violence. 

“DISTURBING CONTENT: A man loads a gun and shoots a homeless man in downtown St. Louis just 15 minutes from where I live,” Ryan Cunningham tweeted, sharing the shooting video with his 73,000 followers. “Kim Gardner, the St. Louis Prosecutor, is George Soros funded and often lets people like this go free with no charges.” (Continue Reading)

Well, Former AG Bill Barr

by

By Carrie K. Hutchens

Bill Barr, you seem to be intent on telling the world how you thought President Trump was wrong in so many ways. Maybe you can take a breath and tell us, Mr. Righteous, if you investigated the allegations of election fraud and interference, how is it you were unaware of the government involvement in censorship and information suppression? How is it that you missed what certainly appears to be a coordination between government employees, the media, and social media to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story and other matters that were deemed to be a threat to the election outcome that the players and their masters apparently were striving for? You know… actual censorship of citizens by the government and actual election interference.

Personally, no matter how many times you claimed it to be, I never for a moment believed an actual investigation ever occurred. A pretend one maybe, but never a real one. It couldn’t have been done that fast and been thorough. Guess you were counting on everyone assuming you have all this integrity, so the world should just take your word. Well, I don’t take your word for anything and you have proven my feelings to be with cause.

You, former AG Bill Barr, are either utterly incompetent or were intentionally blind to what was taking place. Either way, the wrong is on you. And, the proof there wasn’t a thorough investigation is the fact you were supposedly unaware of the wrongs being done right under your nose. Doesn’t matter. Either way, you have egg on your face and I for one will be happy to point out that your pedestal is crumbling, as the wrongs come out into the light.

“One Damn Thing After Another: Memoirs of an Attorney General” by you? Your title is right. You, the libs, and many in the government have continually twisted what Trump did and said and were always looking to find something to “get him on.” He couldn’t turn around without one of you trying to claim he had done something wrong or said something wrong or maybe he just wasn’t as smooth-talking as is liked by the likes of you and your buddies. But tell us, when did Trump ever try to destroy the lives of you and your fellow Trump haters by lies and half-truths?

Another thing before I close.

You were ready to throw your opinion out there about the Mar-a-Lago raid. You, of course, took the side against Trump. So, tell us… what’s your opinion on the classified documents Biden had and where they were found? Have I missed you running to the mic to jump on that situation? Can you explain why one set of attorneys were allowed to be present during searches, but not the others? Actually, your explanation is worthless. We already know that when it comes to Trump, you are quick to find some kind of fault with him, even when it was obvious whatever was done unto him and he merely reacted in defense.

You should be ashamed.

I, for one, am quite ashamed, even if you aren’t. I’m ashamed that I once believed you were the person you pretend to be. My eyes have been opened though. As I said previously, there couldn’t have been an investigation and not discovered the election interference, information suppression, and censorship that was active right under your nose. And you know what? I’m betting it all did make a difference that changed the election results. Someday, we will know. I look forward to you eating humble pie and having to admit to the world that you were wrong in how you have treated President Trump and the citizens that were affected by the wrongs so easily carried out. Yes, I look forward to that day. May it be soon.

Pennsylvania jury acquits pro-life activist Mark Houck on charges of obstructing abortion clinic access

by

By Louis Casiano | Fox News

A jury has reportedly acquitted Pennsylvania pro-life activist who was accused of allegedly pushing a Planned Parenthood escort during a clash outside an abortion clinic, Life News reported.

Mark Houck, 48, faced charges that he violated the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, which makes it a federal crime to use force with the intent to injure, intimidate and interfere with anyone because that person produces reproductive health care. He pleaded not guilty. 

The charge stems from an Oct. 13, 2021 incident in which the Biden Administration alleged Houck assaulted and “forcefully shoved” Bruce Love, a 72-year-old volunteer at a Philadelphia Planned Parenthood.

Houck was arrested in his home by multiple FBI agents in September 2022.

U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, celebrated the news of Houck’s acquittal with a tweet. 

“Good. Begs question of the $48 billion we give to DOJ…,” he wrote. 

Shortly after Houck’s arrest last fall, his attorney Peter Breen told Fox News Digital that his client’s arrest was an “outrageous abuse of power” from the Department of Justice that was intended to intimidate pro-life Americans.

“The message from the Biden Department of Justice is pure intimidation against pro-life people and people of faith,” said Breen, senior counsel of the Thomas More Society. “Why in the world would you send this phalanx of officers heavily armed to this family’s home, violate the sanctity of their home, frighten their children? Why would you do that, other than just to send a message?  (Continue Reading)

Ex-Colorado social worker ordered to pay councilwoman millions after allegedly filing false child abuse report

The $3 million judgment against Robin Niceta should ‘send a message’ that her type of misconduct ‘should not be tolerated,’ said the judge

A Colorado judge ordered a disgraced social worker to pay $3 million in damages to an Aurora city councilwoman in a defamation case based on a false child abuse report leveled against the city leader.

“This award is made, in part, ‘to send a message that this kind of conduct cannot and should not be tolerated by anybody,'” Arapahoe County Judge Elizabeth Beebe Volz wrote in her order, which was obtained by Fox News Digital.

Former Arapahoe County social worker Robin Niceta was arrested in May of last year and charged with a felony count of suspicion of attempting to influence a public servant and a misdemeanor count of making a false report about child abuse. The report claimed that Aurora Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky inappropriately touched her own toddler.

The tip was made on Jan. 28, one day after Jurinsky went on a radio show to speak out against then-Aurora Police Chief Vanessa Wilson. She described the city’s top police officer as “trash” who needed to be ousted over allegedly throwing “police officers under the bus,” overseeing the city facing mounting shootings, as well as police staffing shortages.

What Jurinsky did not know during the interview was that the police chief was dating Niceta at the time. Wilson was ultimately fired as Aurora’s police chief over unrelated matters to Niceta, and told Fox News Digital last year that the couple is no longer together, and she wants “nothing to do with [Niceta].”

An investigation was launched after Niceta allegedly filed the anonymous tip, which ultimately cleared Jurinsky of any wrongdoing, but left the councilwoman in a fearful limbo for two weeks that she might lose custody of her son.  (Continue Reading)

Byron Donalds’ wife decries ‘racist attacks’ from the left: ‘Cry harder, haters’

by

By Houston Keene

Florida Republican Rep. Byron Donalds’ wife decried the “racist attacks” she and her husband endure from the left, telling the “haters” to “cry harder.”

Erika Donalds, who is White, tweeted screenshots of online users attacking her over her skin color on Wednesday, pushing back on the racially-motivated online attacks over her marriage to a Black Republican lawmaker.

“Byron and I have been together for 23+ years, and the most racist attacks we experience are always from the left,” she wrote.

“They can’t accept that a free thinking black man achieves success on his own merits, and they sure as heck can’t stand that he’s married to me!” Donalds continued. “Cry harder, haters.” (Continue Reading)

House passes new rules for Congress as McCarthy clears first major test as House speaker

by

By Brianna Herlihy

The House of Representatives passed a new rules package Monday that overhauls the way it functions by putting up more barriers to congressional spending and creating a more deliberate process for passing legislation, key demands of the more conservative members of the Republican Party.

The rules passed with an 220 to 213 vote that saw just one Republican, Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas, vote against it. Passage of the blueprint for how the GOP will run the House is the first sign of success for House Speaker Kevin McCarthy after the fight of his life last week for the speaker’s gavel.

Changes to the rules package were negotiated up through the 11th hour as part of a deal to earn McCarthy the votes for the speaker. Pushing for those changes were Roy, Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., and freshman congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., who said last week at the Capitol the changes will be “transformational, and it will outlast every person in this room.”

Among other things, rules include the end of Pelosi-era proxy voting and requires members to vote in person from the House floor.

The newly-adopted rules also include a provision that allows House Freedom Caucus members to receive three of the nine seats on the House Rules Committee, which dictates the terms of how bills are brought to the floor and how they can be amended.

The package also includes a return to a “Cut-As-You-Go” policy that says legislation cannot be considered if it increases mandatory spending over a 5- or 10-year period. This “CUTGO” policy requires bills that call for new spending to find offsetting spending cuts elsewhere in the federal budget – an ambitious new curb on federal spending, part of the GOP’s effort to stop piling on trillions of dollars in new debt each year.

Elon Musk: ‘I recommend voting for a Republican Congress’

by

By Anders Hagstrom | Fox News

Billionaire Twitter CEO Elon Musk endorsed Republicans for the midterm election cycle on Monday, telling voters to cast ballots for a Republican Congress.

Musk’s announcement comes months after he first announced plans to vote Republican earlier this year. He argued Monday that having a government split between two parties is ideal, and noted President Biden’s possession of the White House for Democrats before saying Congress should go to Repubilicans.

“To independent-minded voters: Shared power curbs the worst excesses of both parties, therefore I recommend voting for a Republican Congress, given that the Presidency is Democratic,” Musk wrote.

Musk’s endorsement follows through on his vow to vote Republican in May.

‘Dukes of Hazzard’ star John Schneider explains why Hollywood won’t make patriotic films: ‘You have the power’

Schneider, who famously played Bo Duke in the classic sitcom, is starring in ‘To Die For,’ which honors patriotism and freedom

‘Dukes of Hazzard’ star John Schneider explains why Hollywood won’t make patriotic films
The actor is starring in a new film titled ‘To Die For,’ which he said has been resonating with veterans feeling overlooked in America.


John Schneider refuses to back down.

The actor, who famously played Bo Duke in the hit sitcom “Dukes of Hazzard,” is starring in a new patriotic film titled “To Die For,” which was directed and produced independently without major studio backing.

The storyline follows reclusive veteran Quint North (Schneider), who takes a public stand for his personal freedoms after receiving a court order to keep his American flag-flying El Camino truck away from a local high school. The 62-year-old told Fox News Digital the film defends patriotism, freedom of speech and the American flag.

“I had been made aware of an article where a man had been put in jail because he refused to take the flag off the back of his truck,” said Schneider. “I read the article, and it said he had a restraining order against him, so he couldn’t drive within a certain distance from the [local] high school with the flag on his truck… [My wife and I] are big supporters of our military and our law enforcement. And I thought, now is the time to make a movie about this guy. I don’t know about you, but as I drive around the country, I see more and more people with the American flag flying from the back of… their pickup trucks.”

‘DUKES OF HAZZARD’ STAR JOHN SCHNEIDER ON GENERAL LEE, CANCEL CULTURE: ‘WE DON’T BELONG IN THAT COUNTRY CLUB’

“I wanted to make a movie not about that individual guy, but that kind of guy who is willing to go to jail in order to continue to express his First Amendment right of free speech,” Schneider continued. “The second notion was this movie has got to come out before the midterm elections in 2022… so that it will urge people who are, for some reason, timid or quiet to speak their mind… No matter what, the movie had to come out on Oct. 20 to give enough lead time so that people could see it before voting in November.”

Schneider, a proud conservative and Trump supporter, shared that the film has already made a bold statement among viewers.

“A friend of mine said all the right people are aggravated,” he chuckled. “But all the right people are also encouraged and enthused and invigorated by it. So as we say in the car business, ‘It’s firing on all eight.’”

According to the star, “To Die For” was made with a crew of under 10 people over the last 10 months. He also never approached Hollywood directors with the script.

FIRST ON FOX: Crist claims he’s ‘trustworthy’ after his former staff, colleagues endorse DeSantis

by
Fox News Digital spoke with Crist following his heated debate with DeSantis

By Brandon Gillespie , Andrew Murray | Fox News

Florida Democratic gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist on Tuesday described himself as “a trustworthy person” despite a number of his former staffers and colleagues announcing they would be supporting his opponent, incumbent Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, for re-election.

In an interview with Fox News Digital just one day following his fiery debate with DeSantis, the former Republican governor pushed back on the notion that he was untrustworthy for changing his political party affiliation multiple times, arguing that the GOP had left him rather than the other way around.

Crist was a Republican until 2010 before unsuccessfully running for Senate that year as an independent, and then ultimately winning election to Congress in 2016 as a Democrat. He resigned his congressional seat in August after winning the Democratic gubernatorial primary.

“I am a trustworthy person. I follow my heart,” Crist told Fox when asked if his shifting alliances were evidence of political opportunism.

“I did change political parties, because my party left me. I didn’t leave it. It started with the rise of the Tea Party, and then it metastasized under Trump, and here’s where we are today, where you got people who are denying elections getting nominated by the Republican Party for offices all over America. It’s a mess,” he added.

In a letter released Tuesday, a number of Crist’s former staffers and colleagues, including his ex-chief of staff George LeMieux and his former lieutenant governor, Jeff Kottkamp, wrote that DeSantis was the “clear” choice for governor.

“The undersigned represent former colleagues and staff of Charlie Crist. Together, we have known Charlie in virtually all phases of his career and public life,” the letter read. 

“The choice this November could not be more clear: we unanimously endorse Governor Ron DeSantis for re-election,” it read.

“Governor DeSantis has delivered for Florida. He has led our state with courage and conviction. He has demonstrated his ability to lead us through difficult times. We stand with Governor DeSantis because the stakes are too high,” it added.

OPEN LETTER TO THE RADICAL LIBS

by

by Carrie K. Hutchens

Dear Radical Lib,

You annoy me and that is saying it politely and mildly. Actually, in truth, you spend a great deal of time making me furious and regretting that I saw or heard what you falsely claim. You see, I have no tolerance for gaslighters or indoctrinated puppets that are so vicious and willing to spread lies about others. BAMN is not a righteous cause. It is anything but. And if you have difficulty comprehending that to be true, perhaps you should spend some time asking yourself how you would feel if someone disagreed with you and, for no other reason than disagreeing, decided they should destroy you by any means necessary. Yes, ask yourself how you would feel if you were wrongly on the other end of it all? And while you ask yourself that question, don’t be smug and think it can’t ever happen to you, because… actually… it could.

I have come to not like a great many people, but I would NEVER lie about any of them. Nor would I stand by and let a lie about them pass, if I knew about it and had chance (means) to respond and set the record straight. That’s how it should be. A disagreement should never be won by lie and neither should an election, court case or any other situation.

Truth and honor should matter to everyone, including the radical lib, but it doesn’t seem to.

Likewise, truth and honor should definitely matter to the media that was once anointed as a special, and honored, group entrusted to hold the government accountable. However, that concept has become a joke as it – the MSM – appears to be little more than a propaganda mill for the Democrats and radical libs.

What a shame when such trusted groups become the distrusted.

To say the very least, I’m tired of the liars and especially tired of the liars calling the truth-tellers liars and trying to wrongly destroy them. It’s old. It’s time it is stopped. It’s time you, the radical libs, are held accountable for your wrongful behavior. With that said, I don’t believe you should be held accountable in a wrongful manner. I don’t suggest you should be doxxed or be cancelled or lied about to get back at you for what you have done. On the contrary, I suggest that only the truth be used to identify your wrongs and that you are treated justly.

It’s more than you have given others, but what should be given to all, including you.

May today be the day you wake up and take steps to be the honorable person you have the ability to become.

Sincerely,
Carrie

Apartments owned by Warnock’s church evict ‘homeless’ tenants while senator receives hefty housing stipend

by

By Jon Brown | Fox News

A downtown Atlanta apartment building mostly owned by the church of Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., has reportedly been evicting disadvantaged tenants while the church pays the senator a hefty monthly housing stipend.

Ebenezer Baptist Church, which pays Warnock a sizable $7,417 monthly housing allowance as its senior pastor, is 99% owner of the Columbia Tower at MLK Village, where residents have received eviction notices for owing as little as $25.88 in past-due rent, according to documents obtained by The Washington Free Beacon.

Eight tenants at Columbia Tower, which is also run by Columbia Residential and described as a haven for the “chronically homeless” and those afflicted with “mental disabilities,” have been issued eviction notices since early 2020 for owing an average of $125 in rent.

Five cases were related to rent less than one month late, and two led to court-ordered evictions carried out by the Fulton County Marshal’s Department. Six of them were dismissed, and four remain open.

As a charitable organization, Columbia Tower has paid $77.77 in property taxes during the past seven years and has received more than $15 million in taxpayer-funded assistance since 2005, according to tax records obtained by the Free Beacon.

“They treat me like a piece of s—. They’re not compassionate at all,” one 69-year-old Black resident who is a Vietnam veteran told the Free Beacon. He explained how he was issued an eviction notice last month for $192 in past-due rent. He told the outlet he was almost evicted last year over $179, but he was allowed to stay after he paid an addition $325 in fees.

“It’s disheartening. It’s horrible. It’s actually horrifying,” another resident told the outlet. “We need the help. I understand churches take care of their pastors, but the excess, it’s not good. Not when you have people that need help here.”

The anonymous resident, who also paid hundreds in fees, said she was threatened with eviction after being one day late on her rent. (Click to continue reading)

St. Louis man convicted in David Dorn’s murder sentenced to life in prison without parole

by

Stephan Cannon, 26, was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the murder of former St. Louis Police Capt. David Dorn after a Missouri jury convicted him in July, according to reports.

Cannon was convicted of shooting and killing Dorn during a night of looting and rioting in June 2020 in the wake of the death of George Floyd in Minnesota.

Dorn, 77, was responding to a burglary alarm at a friend’s pawn shop when he encountered a group of looters. He was struck four times and died from his injuries.

Dorn and four officers were struck by bullets, while other officers were pelted with rocks and fireworks and 55 businesses were burglarized or damaged across St. Louis during the protests.

The septuagenarian had served 38 years on the St. Louis police force before working six years as police chief in Moline Acres. He had retired from the Moline Acres department in 2014.

Cannon was convicted of first-degree murder, first-degree robbery, first-degree burglary, stealing $750 or more, unlawful possession of a firearm and three counts of armed criminal action — all felonies.

According to KSDK’s Christine Byers, Cannon was sentenced to life without parole on the first-degree murder charge. (Continue Reading)
