Bitter Democrat Congressman Jasmine Crockett Refuses To Campaign for Primary Opponent Who Beat Her, James Talarico

KERANews.org:

Outgoing U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett won't be at the Texas Democratic state convention this week to rally behind state Rep. James Talarico, telling the Dallas Morning News she has "no idea" if she will actively campaign for the Democratic nominee. 

 

That's not what she told KERA News earlier this year. In an interview with NTX Now's Ron Corning published March 3, Crockett said she "absolutely" would campaign for Talarico if he won the nomination. 

 

"The reality is that it has to be bigger than any single individual. This is about us winning, that is what it's about," Crockett said. "And when I say 'us winning' I mean us as Texans."

Talk about sour grapes. But outside of the usual Black Democrat plantation heads on the Left, no one should be surprised that an angry, professional-race-baiter like Crockett would fail to support her former opponent and Democrat Talarico in his bid for a Texas Senate seat. Especially now that Crockett's gone the race card route and blamed for dismal Senate campaign loss this past March on 'racism'. Crockett, who'll probably head to the podcast circuit and become a MSNOW and CNN regular once her Congressional term ends in a few months, just can't accept that her loss to Talarico was mostly due to her boorish attitude, lack of substance, refusal to step in platforms that would actually challenge her (like Stephen A. Smith, who practically begged her to come on his popular YouTube show several times after offering construtive criticism beforehand) and failure to advance populist ideas, not race. And that's the real reason her ego won't allow to help Talarico out.

Graham Platner Drops Out of Maine Senate Race After Latest Rape Allegation

FOXNews.com:

Graham Platner, the embattled Democratic Senate nominee in Maine, suspended his campaign on Wednesday amid mounting controversies and growing calls from top Democrats in his home state, in the nation's capital, and across the country for him to immediately quit the race. 

 

Platner, a populist Democrat backed last September by progressive champion Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was challenging longtime Republican Sen. Susan Collins in a high-profile, combustible and expensive race in Maine, which is one of a handful that will determine if the GOP holds onto its slim Senate majority in November's midterm elections. 

 

"For the movement to continue, it can’t be me. For that reason, we are suspending campaign operations," Platner said in a video posted to social media.

In the end, it appears that being accused of rape by a fellow liberal (rather than by a conservative, as had been the case just weeks earlier) proved to be the final nail in Graham Platner's political coffin. As the allegation triggered a swift collapse in support from the Left and came shortly after Platner insisted there were no further revelations about his past. In a video announcing the suspension of his campaign, he acknowledged that his operation could no longer raise funds, access key voter data, or maintain the infrastructure needed to compete in a statewide race. His withdrawal also comes as Maine Democrats scramble to replace him before the July 13 candidate deadline, with reports indicating Platner hopes to have a say in selecting his successor. 

Of course, the writing was already on the wall. A recent poll showed Republican incumbent Susan Collins leading the race, and Platner's long list of controversies (including a Nazi tattoo he has had for more than two decades) had already left his candidacy politically damaged. Therefore from a normal perspective, his exit was likely inevitable. What stands out, however, is how many prominent voices on the progressive Left continued defending or minimizing Platner's conduct through each successive scandal because they viewed him as their best chance to help Democrats win that Senate seat.

Andrew Gillum Busted on Drug Charges in Alabama

Mediaite.com:

Andrew Gillum, the Democrat who narrowly lost the 2018 Florida governor’s race to Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), was arrested last week in Alabama on several drug charges. 

 

Gillum, 46, was mayor of Tallahassee from 2014 to 2018. He lost the 2018 race to DeSantis by a mere 34,000 votes out of more than 8 million cast, a 0.4% margin that required a recount under Florida law to finalize the result. 

 

TMZ flagged Gillum’s arrest in an article Tuesday, reporting that he had been taken into custody last Thursday by officers with the Daphne Police Department in Daphne, Alabama, and then booked into the Baldwin County Jail.

Gillum is now a co-host on the 'Native Land' podcast, which I hate-watch sometimes just to keep track of the usual Black plantation Democrats. That said, as bright and articulate as Gillum is, it's a little sad that this shill can't stay off the drugs, which is just another reason why people shouldn't take advice from these fools. On another note, considering how razor-thin a margin Gillum lost to Ron DeSantis in 2018, with all the scandals he's been involved in since, Floridians should breathe a collective sigh that they didn't elect this reject.

Graham Platner Accused of Sexual Assault In Explosive Politico Report

Mediaite.com:

Democratic Party Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner was accused of sexual assault by a woman he dated some five years ago, in a bombshell report from Politico on Monday. 

 

“The woman, a 41-year-old Maine resident named Jenny Racicot, detailed the alleged incident to POLITICO in three interviews over the past two weeks,” Politico reported, adding: 

 

POLITICO also spoke with a man Racicot dated and confided in the years after the alleged incident, and reviewed documents, including emails between Racicot and her therapist and messages between Racicot and an acquaintance whom she warned against getting involved with Platner years before he ran for office. 

 

Platner denied the allegation, telling the outlet, “Any accusation of non-consensual behavior is categorically untrue.”

Kind of surprising that the guy with the 20-year Nazi tattoo is now being accused of sexually assaulting a former girlfriend. Sarcasm aside, it's another example of the MeToo movement seemingly boomeranging back on Democrats (see: Eric Swalwell). That said, the allegations against Platner, brought by Jenny Racicot, are extremely serious. She says he showed up at her home in a blackout state after she had explicitly told him not to come, then forced himself on her before she cut off all contact. If that's what happened, this goes well beyond the usual debates over mixed signals or disputed consent. Allegedly forcing your way into someone's home and then sexually assaulting them is in an entirely different category. Platner denies the allegations, but given the nature of the accusations, many people are likely to view that denial with skepticism. The only question now is whether the scandal will be enough to end his bid for a Maine Senate seat that already appeared to be a long shot. We'll find out soon enough.

Tim Walz Votes To Pardon Convicted Sexual Abuser Facing Deportation

FOXNews.com:

Minnesota officials, including Democrat Gov. Tim Walz, last month pardoned an illegal immigrant who was previously convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl and who was slated to be deported. 

 

With the recommendation of the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission (CRC), the Minnesota Board of Pardons — led by Walz, state Attorney General Keith Ellison and state Chief Justice Natalie Hudson — granted a pardon for Laos national Tou Lue Vang, 42, at its June 10 meeting, according to a letter informing Vang of the decision from Carli Stark, the executive director of the state CRC. 

 

The pardon essentially gives Vang a clean slate. "Being granted a pardon is a notable achievement and a reflection of the work you have done since your conviction," Stark wrote in her letter to Vang.

Apparently the victim’s forgiveness was a key factor in the pardon of Vang. But with white liberals, since Trump took ofiice again, showing so much empathy towards illegal immigrants and hatred for ICE agents, you had to know that a total dolt like Walz would find some way to pardon this creep and not give a damn about the backlash when you consider that he's not running for re-election.

Supreme Court Allows States to Bar Boys from Playing in Girls’ Sports

NYTimes.com:

A divided Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld two state laws barring the participation of transgender female athletes from girls’ and women’s sports teams. The court’s 6-to-3 ruling deals with laws from West Virginia and Idaho but has implications for the 25 other states with similar restrictions, and for athletes who compete in school and collegiate sports nationwide. 

The Trump administration, which backed the state bans, has targeted the participation of transgender athletes in sports amid a national rollback of rights for transgender people. President Trump directed federal agencies last year to withdraw funding from schools that allow transgender athletes in girls’ and women’s sports. 

The cases attracted intense public interest, with Olympians and other elite athletes watching closely and submitting legal briefs in support of each side. In March, the International Olympic Committee barred transgender athletes from competing in the women’s category of the Olympics and said that all participants in those events must undergo genetic testing. The N.C.A.A. announced last year that it would bar trans women from competing in women’s sports.

Nice to see common sense win out here, but damn if this isn't still dangerous political time. And that's because three, liberal Supreme Court justices threw fairness aside and sided with the "transgender boy". Unbelievable, but to be expected from a far-Left cult based more on ideology and identity politics than anything else. And with an msm that's gone so far-Left that they're even adopting radical terms like "sex assigned at birth", the red flags have long been posted for what may be coming down the line the next time we have a Democrat President.

Migrant Camps Swell in South Africa Amid Growing Anti-Illegal Immigrant Threats

Reuters.com:

Thousands of Malawian migrants queued for processing at a makeshift camp in the South African city of Durban ​this week while hundreds of Zimbabweans slept on the pavement outside their consulate in Cape Town. All had the same goal: to ‌leave South Africa before nationwide anti-immigrant protests on Tuesday, which many fear will descend into violence. 

 

"We are scared because you never know what people are planning to do to you. It's not right to wait and see what will happen," Ebrahim Moosa, 37, said. 

 

He was with his wife in a snaking line of people, some with babies on their ​backs, hoping to catch a bus to Malawi from Durban. South Africa has been gripped by a wave of xenophobic protests and sometimes deadly ​attacks in recent weeks, forcing many foreigners to flee or be chased from their homes.

South Africa's growing frustration over illegal immigration is often portrayed by the Left as solely xenophobia, but many residents argue the issue is rooted in the country's limited resources and worsening economic conditions. With high unemployment, strained healthcare and education systems, housing shortages, and rising concerns about crime, while the msm ignores these crisis' many South Africans believe the continued influx of undocumented migrants is placing additional pressure on already overburdened public services. The rise of anti-immigration movements and calls for mass deportations reflect these concerns, with supporters insisting their demands are driven less by hostility toward foreigners than by a belief that the government must prioritize the needs of its own citizens amid deepening social and economic challenges.

Scott Wiener, Worst Liberal in the World, Gets Heckled by San Francisco Liberals for Stance on Gaza

Mediaite.com:

California State Senator Scott Wiener (D) was berated by several angry locals at the San Francisco Pride March on Friday, with one of the irate hecklers repeatedly pounding Wiener for his “policy on the genocide in Gaza.” 

 

The wild scene was captured by X user Dimitry Yakoushkin, who posted the clip of the liberal lawmaker shambling away from Dolores Park while getting absolutely skewered by several rabid march attendees. It’s racked up more than 3 million views in less than a day. 

 

“I think your policy on the genocide is terrible!” Yakoushkin shrieked. “I think you do not belong here!”

Oh the irony. Scott Wiener, the ultimate California liberal, a guy who may soon replace Nancy Pelosi in Congress and an absolute POS who supports all radical trans demands, rapists, Antifa and more, gets heckled by pro-Palestinian liberals (his own voters) for supporting Israel.

Renowned Neocon and Former Trump Adviser John Bolton Pleads Guilty in Classified Files Case

SeattleTimes.com:

Former Trump administration national security adviser John Bolton pleaded guilty on Friday to illegally retaining classified information, sealing a deal with federal prosecutors that could allow him to avoid a prison term. Bolton, who became an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump after serving in the Republican’s first administration, is scheduled to be sentenced on Oct. 28 by U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang in Greenbelt, Maryland. 

 

Bolton, 77, of Bethesda, Maryland, pleaded guilty to a single count of illegally retaining national defense information, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years. His plea agreement with the Justice Department may enable him to avoid time behind bars, but the judge ultimately will decide his punishment. 

 

The plea agreement recommends capping any prison sentence at five years, but the judge isn’t bound by that part of the deal. Bolton, who also agreed to pay a fine of $2.25 million, can withdraw his guilty plea if the judge imposes a longer prison sentence or a larger fine.

While Bolton was already on Trump's list of political enemies, I'm not sure his guilty plea is that significant. That's because Bolton has long been viewed as a neoconservative and GOP establishment figure who only turned against Trump because he opposed Trump's "America First" foreign policy, skepticism of NATO, and efforts to pursue diplomacy with North Korea during his first term. That said Bolton has consistently favored military intervention, making him fundamentally at odds with Trump's reluctance to start new wars in term one. Although Bolton became a favorite among some on the Left, the msm and with Never Trump conservatives after breaking with Trump, most continued to view him primarily as a war hawk and now he can add convicted felon to his resume.

Supreme Court Allows Trump to Remove Protections from Thousands of Haitian and Syrian Immigrants

NBCNews.com:

The Supreme Court on Thursday cleared the way for the Trump administration to remove legal protections from thousands of Haitian and Syrian immigrants in the United States, meaning they could be subject to deportation. 

 

The court, on a 6-3 vote on ideological lines, ruled in favor of the administration, which asked to continue with its plan to strip Temporary Protected Status from about 350,000 Haitians and 6,000 Syrians. 

 

Writing for the majority, conservative Justice Samuel Alito said that judges overstepped their authority in second-guessing the administration’s decision. The court also rejected a claim that the decision to remove protections for Haitians was discriminatory.

So basically, the Supreme Court (as they should since "Temporary" means "temporary") ruled 6-3 in favor of the Trump administration’s decision to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for immigrants from Syria and Haiti. The conservative justices found that federal law limits judicial review of such TPS decisions and said the plaintiffs’ equal protection claim was unlikely to succeed. Congress created TPS in 1990 to provide temporary humanitarian relief for people unable to safely return home, but some designations lasted for decades. The ruling allows the administration to move forward with ending protections that lower liberal courts had previously blocked.
