Adolfo Martinez, 30, of Ames last month was found guilty of a hate crime – a class "D" felony – third-degree harassment and reckless use of fire. Police said he stole a pride banner hanging at Ames United Church of Christ and burned it early June 11 outside the Dangerous Curves Gentleman’s Club.
Story County Attorney Jessica Reynolds said hate crime charges were added because Martinez is suspected of criminal mischief against someone's property because of "what it represents as far as sexual orientation."
A jury convicted Martinez in November
McConnell Says Pelosi ‘Too Afraid’ of Impeachment Trial
NBC10 Philadelphia ….. Majority Leader Senator Mitch McConnell said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi "may be too afraid" to send two impeachment articles to the Republican-controlled Senate after she threw uncertainty into the process by refusing to say, repeatedly, when or whether she would submit them for a trial.

Hours After Schumer Demands 4 Senate Witnesses – His Clinton Closet Swings Wide Open By Adam Casalino| December 16, 2019
Once House Democrats vote on their partisan impeachment, it goes to the Senate.
We know Senate Republicans, and Trump, have big plans for this trial. President Trump will finally get a fair chance to defend himself.
And, aw, isn’t it cute? Democrat Chuck Schumer thinks he gets a say in all this! After House Democrats refused any request from Republicans, Schumer thinks he can demand things of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
In fact, he wants to question four top figures: Robert Blair, Mick Mulvaney, John Bolton, and Michael Duffey.
That’s nice. Keep making demands, Chuck. But something tells me they’re going to fall on deaf ears.
Especially since we know what you said just a few years ago.
From Fox News:
Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer has called for several current and former Trump administration officials to be subpoenaed to testify in the chamber’s likely impeachment trial for President Trump.
Yet, during former President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial in 1999, Schumer, D-N.Y., roundly dismissed the importance of, and voted against, such witness testimony — suggesting it amounted to “political theater.”
Just like Nadler and Pelosi, Chuck Schumer is going against his own words from the Clinton impeachment.
Back then, he called subpoenaing presidential staff “political theater.”
Now, he thinks he can make demands, trying to drag White House staff into the room.
It’s pretty rich, considering how Democrats ran their impeachment inquiry in the House.
Every legitimate request for witnesses by Republicans was denied by Schiff. Nadler only gave them one.
Other requests, even time for questions, were denied by these Democrats. It was pretty clear that their hearings were a sham, a kangaroo court meant to railroad the president.
Yet now Schumer thinks he can demand what he wants? You’re dreaming Chuck.
This isn’t the old GOP, the one that got pushed around by swamp dwellers and Democrats.
This is a party run by Donald Trump. And they’re not going to let Democrats in the Senate do what their buddies in the House did.
Graham and the rest of the Senate Republicans have no reason to bow to Chuck’s wishes. They will hold a real trial and give Trump the chance to clear his name.
Hunter Biden’s Buried Charges Surface – They Could Sink Joe’s Campaign Like The Titanic By Ben Dutka| December 14, 2019
I think we’ve found Joe Biden’s Achilles Heel.
His son, Hunter
Though Joe does plenty to hurt his reputation – he’s still saying creepy things, for instance – Hunter’s past is a bigger problem.
We already have the Ukraine issue, as well as the “baby mama” scandal, which involves a former stripper.
But wait, here comes another:
Hunter Biden was actually arrested back in 1988!
Via Washington Examiner:
Joe Biden’s son Hunter was arrested on Jersey Shore drug charges in 1988 and had his record expunged at a time when his father was pushing for the incarceration of drug offenders drawn disproportionately from minority groups.
Oh man, the irony!
Right around the time Joe Biden was fighting the drug war, his son was actually PART of that culture.
And here’s another significant point– this arrest was not reported.
Okay, so Hunter Biden has a buried criminal record, and he was given a high-ranking position in a foreign company.
It’s not looking good for Joe, either.
Just a year after Hunter’s arrest, Biden gave a speech where he said we needed to “hold every drug user accountable.”
Well, that doesn’t include your son, I guess. His report was kept secret and he got a job with a lucrative salary.
Oh, and Hunter was never punished, either. He escaped charges.
This does not bode well for Joe’s campaign: his family’s criminal activity, hiding that activity, and getting away with that activity.
Not lookin’ good for 2020, Joe!

WELL....LOOKY HERE.....WHO WOODA THOUGHT ??
Ukrainian Prosecutor General indicted Burisma owner Nikolai Zlochevsky.
The claim alleges that Hunter Biden and his partners received $16.5 million for their ‘services’
Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden took a lucrative post on the Burisma Board in 2014.
Hunter Biden was making millions from the corrupt Ukrainian oil and gas company.
New memos released earlier this month reveal Burisma Holdings, Hunter Biden’s Ukrainian natural gas company, pressured the Obama State Department to help end the corruption investigation during the 2016 election cycle just one month before then-Vice President Joe Biden forced Ukraine to fire Viktor Shokin, the prosecutor probing his son Hunter.
Joe Biden bragged about getting Viktor Shokin fired during a 2018 speech to the Council on Foreign Relations.
The Burisma indictment reveals that former Ukrainian President Yanukovich illegally obtained $17.4 billion and laundered it through an investment fund close to the US Democratic Party.
Via Tass.com:
The MP explained that this information makes up a part of a large-scale scheme of Zlochevsky’s money laundering that involved politicians from the time of ex-President Viktor Yanukovich who continued this scheme under another (now former) President Pyotr Poroshenko, with the backing of former Governor of the National Bank of Ukraine Valeria Gontareva.
“We will reveal the information about the financial pyramid scheme that was created in Ukraine and developed by everyone beginning with Yanukovich and later by Poroshenko. This system is still working under the guidance of the current managerial board of the National Bank, ensuring that money flows in the interest of people who stole millions of dollars, took it offshore and bought Ukrainian public bonds turning them into the Ukrainian sovereign debt,” Dubinksy claimed. He then added that “in both cases of Yanukovich and Poroshenko, Ms. Gontareva and companies she controls were investing the stolen funds.”
Another Verkhovna Rada MP, Andrei Derkach, claimed that the US Franklin Templeton Investments management company was also involved in the scheme. “The investigation suggests that the Yanukovichs illegally obtained $7.4 billion and laundered it through an investment fund close to the US Democratic Party as government domestic loan bonds,” he pointed out.

Nancy Pelosi Told A Lie So Big The Liberal Media Just Fact-Checked Her Martywalsh Posted December 19, 2019 in Politics
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told a lie so egregious that even the liberal media called her out for it.
Back in September, Pelosi spread a woefully inaccurate tweet about the actual number of children killed with firearms each year.
Her goal was to push more anti-gun propaganda, but the Washington Post fact-checked her on Thursday and gave her four Pinocchios for a “bogus talking point.”
Pelosi has repeatedly claimed that 47 percent of gun deaths were “teenagers or children,” according to the Post.
CDC data show the real number is closer to 9 percent, meaning she exaggerates the true number by more than five-fold.
This discrepancy led the Post to assign Pelosi’s claim the harshest rating on its fact-checking scale.
“For months, in speeches, news conferences, tweets and interviews, Pelosi has been using a version of an incorrect talking point to make the firearms death toll for teenagers and children appear significantly higher than reality,” the fact-check read.
“When we queried her staff, we were told she had simply misspoken. But that was false, too,” WaPo added.
When asked about the discrepancy, Pelosi’s office said the speaker meant to say 47 teenagers or children were killed with guns per day.
However, that number would amount to 43 percent of gun deaths, still very far from the CDC’s findings.
The new claim from Pelosi’s office, the Post said, seemingly “took advantage of” the paper’s policy to not assign scores to false statements made by politicians who later correct themselves. The Post made an exception to the policy and gave Pelosi four Pinocchios, its harshest possible score.
So, her initial claim was a gigantic lie.
And when her office tried to clean it up and "clarify," they still got the number totally wrong.
And, she has refused to delete the inaccurate tweet

Below is the tweet in question:
It has been over 200 days since the House passed life-saving background checks legislation. 100 people die every day from gun violence – 47 of them children & teenagers. How many more must perish before @SenateMajLdr will take action? #EndGunViolence

President Trumps letter to Pelosi
NBC10 Philadelphia
"I write to express my strongest and most powerful protest against the partisan impeachment crusade..." Read President Donald J. Trump letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi protesting impeachment.
Can we depend on this....???
Pelosi:’If Impeachment Fails, I Will Resign Immediately’
The News International
Speaker Nancy Pelosi gave a startling and wholly unexpected statement today during an interview with Belgian magazine “Le Mensonge.” With impeachment dominating the news these days, the conversation naturally turned to the subject after preliminary pleasantries. Pelosi was asked point blank,”What will you do if impeachment doesn’t get the votes needed to pass?”
The Speaker did not hesitate, launching into a long-winded diatribe before eventually giving a response to the actual question:
“This impeachment is necessary for our national security. President Trump is a threat to the safety of every American and probably the rest of the earth too. He’s unstable and sociopathic.
When I was a little girl, I used to greet the mailman and the milkman everyday with a smile on my face. They were so nice to me, like alternate fathers. I wonder what ever happened to them? Probably dead. Oh well. We should bring milkmen back. They were good.
If this impeachment fails, my time is probably up. I won’t wait around. If it doesn’t go through, I’ll resign. This I decree. You like that? I picked it up from my nephew. He’s the governor of California, you know.”
She appears to have gone a little loopy in the middle there but her message was clear. If impeachment doesn’t work, she’s gone. Hallelujah.
