Trump accusers say it was 'heartbreaking' to see him elected despite sexual misconduct allegations The Washington Post MarkBerman
As the country grapples with a national reckoning over sexual misconduct allegations against powerful men from Hollywood to Capitol Hill, three women who accused the most high-profile man in the country again questioned Monday whytheir claims did nothingto stop him from winning the presidency.
It was “heartbreaking” for women to go public with their claims against President Trump last year, only to see him ascend to the Oval Office, said Samantha Holvey, a former Miss USA contestant who in October 2016 said Trump inappropriately inspected pageant participants. “I put myself out there for the entire world, and nobody cared,” Holvey said on NBC's “Megyn Kelly Today” show, appearing for an hour alongside Jessica Leeds, a New York woman who said Trump groped her on a plane, and Rachel Crooks, who said Trump kissed her on the lips after she introduced herself to him at Trump Tower.
NJ’s Bob Menendez: Throw CCW Holster In Prison If They Cross Into New Jersey December 8, 2017 by Tom Knighton
If there was ever a reason to understand the importance of national reciprocity, trust someone like New Jersey Democrat Bob Menendez to give it to you. The embattled lawmaker still fresh off of his mistrial for corruption mentioned earlier today that he felt anyone with a concealed carry license who crossed into New Jersey with a firearm should get five years in prison. “Throw’em into prison for five years” is what New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez wants for any out-of-state concealed carry permit holder who enter his state with a firearm. “People violate our law — we are a state that has decided that we are against concealed carry weapons. We have stronger gun laws. We believe we have made the states safer as that,” Menendez told The Daily Caller Thursday. “They violate our laws, then whatever is the law, and they are found guilty of it, they should pay the consequence.”
When pressed about travelers with concealed carry permits who may be detoured into his state by accident, he replied: “They know what our state’s law is. They should know what our state law is if they want to carry a concealed weapon. I don’t think that they just simply get detoured and they should think in advance when they are traveling.”
He continued, “I find it amazing that Republicans who believe in state rights all of a sudden have a problem observing the state rights of those states that think that stronger gun laws is the way to protect citizens and that’s what I have to say about it.”
Menendez, who is still under federal indictment for numerous corruption charges, fails to note that while Republicans may favor state’s rights, they also favor the Second Amendment which reads, in part, “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
States like New Jersey do a whole lot of infringing.
If the didn’t, laws like national reciprocity would be irrelevant. However, they do, and as such it becomes necessary for lawmakers to push for laws that will mitigate the disaster created should someone cross into a state like New Jersey with their draconian and, frankly, idiotic gun laws.
Menendez’s lack of sympathy for people who accidentally run afoul of his state’s invasive gun laws exists only because he dislikes guns. As someone who has opposed enacting any kind of penalties for illegal immigration,it seems the only borders he’s worried about are ones that involve making gun owners’ lives difficult.
Him trying to point out hypocrisy is rich coming from someone like him who has basically ignored the United States Constitution with almost every position he takes, regardless of the issue. If he’s going to be serious about state’s rights, he has a lot to do. First, he needs to get out from under an indictment for corruption, but after that, he needs to learn to gain some consistency on issues.
Don’t pretend borders only matter if they belong to New Jersey. No one is interested in playing that game
more to add to the Comey/Muleface Mueller love affair and the vermin Mueller put on his witch hunt staff.
EXCERPT: “John Legato is a former deep cover FBI special agent – and he writes thatComey and Mueller – their families have vacationed together, have had picnics together, hours spent at the office together, had a few cocktails after work. So Mueller can’t possibly be impartial here. Not when he’s very close friends with a key witness.
The point is this – he’s not independent.”
Now for the shit-splattered staff…
James Quarles: Donated almost $33,000 to Democrats, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. He has also donated about $2,750 to Republicans — the only lawyer on Mueller’s team to have done so.
Jeannie Rhee: Donated more than $16,000 since 2008 to Democrats, including the maximum donation possible to Clinton in both 2015 and 2016. Rhee has also donated to Obama.
Andrew Weissmann: Donated more than $4,000 to Obama in 2008and $2,000 to the DNC in 2006.
Elizabeth Prelogar: Donated $250 each to Clinton in 2016 and Obamain 2012.
Jeannie Rhee– deputy assist AG, Wilmer Hale, Donated to DNC, Obama, Clinton
James Quarles – asst. special prosecutor, Wilmer Hale, long history of Dem donations, Clinton
AndrewWeissman– oversees fraud (WHAT A JOKE) at Justice. Donated six times to Obama PACs as well as DNC in 2006.
Simply disgusting that We The People have to pay for this bullshit. Every one on Mueller’s team, including Muleface, need a rope around their necks and a short drop into Hell, where they belong.
10 Facts About The Arab Enslavement Of Black People Not Taught In Schools
The number of people enslaved by Muslims has been a hotly debated topic, especially when the millions of Africans forced from their homelands are considered.
Some historians estimate that between A.D. 650 and 1900, 10 to 20 million people were enslaved by Arab slave traders. Others believe over 20 million enslaved Africans alone had been delivered through the trans-Sahara route alone to the Islamic world.
