Mask in Court
Posted By: Imright, 10/15/2022 9:53:33 PM
A liberal North Carolina judge placed a prospective juror in jail for 24 hours for not wearing a mask in the courtroom. Gregory Hahn, 47, along with 98 other candidates for jury orientation, showed up at the Harnett County courthouse on Monday. Most prospective jurors, including Hahn, were not wearing masks, he recalled. “We were in [an assembly room] for about 20 to 30 minutes, shoulder-to-shoulder, with three-quarters of us not wearing masks,” Hahn told Tucker Carlson Tonight. “So the virus — if there was [a] virus out there – contaminated us anyway.” Despite there being no mask mandate in the courthouse or within the state,

Nine Months of Year Is Raising a Lot of Questions 0 replies
Rob Pyers is the Research Director for California Target Book, a group that provides information on congressional and state legislative election campaigns in California. Pyers posted some intriguing information about Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) on Twitter that our friends over at Twitchy picked up. (Tweet) “Dem Eric Swalwell, who has submitted the 2nd-highest number of ‘I am unable to physically attend proceedings in the House Chamber due to the ongoing public health emergency’ proxy letters, spent $250K+ on travel & car service in the 1st 9 months of the year,” Pyers said.
Jill Biden was in Philadephia on Sunday and she went to the Eagles game with Dallas at Lincoln Financial Field.
Biden was designated the honorary captain for the night and was standing at midfield during the coin toss when they flashed her picture on the big screen.(Tweet) That’s when the booing erupted and let her have it. It must have been pretty substantial from what the people were saying. (Tweets) That had to be especially cutting since she’s an Eagles fan.
But in all honesty, Americans are just fed up at this point with the mess that she and her husband have made of the country and they just vented.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas seemed to suggest that the border crisis would go away if we just stopped talking about it as he shrugged off threats of impeachment by pointing a finger at Republicans.
There are few things as on-brand for President Joe Biden’s administration as redefining language and ascribing responsibility to others. True to that end, Mayorkas followed the lead of border czar Vice President Kamala Harris, who at once claimed the border was both secure and the crisis was the fault of former President Donald Trump, (Sniip)

ex-agents allege 5 replies
Former and current FBI agents are fuming about Director Christopher Wray’s use of the FBI’s private jet, which originally was intended by Congress only to be used for counterterrorism purposes.
A lot of other Americans would like to know why Wray cut short a Senate oversight hearing on Aug. 4 to fly in the FBI jet to his family holiday destination in the Adirondacks, after telling Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) that he had “business” to attend to.
Republican members of Congress sent a formal letter to Wray on Aug. 15 asking whether the flight was in “compliance with the applicable federal regulations and requirements”
MSNBC host Tiffany Cross went on a crude rant against Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and his wife Ginni Thomas.
During a segment on The Cross Connection, Cross began by going after conservative TV personality Megyn Kelly, calling her a “problematic white woman.”
"Yeah, it must be déja vu. Either that or I’m catching body number two," Cross said referring to Kelly, adding “which brings me to another problematic white woman who warrants some attention this week: Clarence Thomas. On this very day in 1991, 'Justice Pubic Hair on my Coke Can' was confirmed to the Supreme Court, and even though we collectively knew how bad it was then,
Outgoing National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that for people to think he is political is “completely crazy.”
Anchor Jon Karl said, “Fauci became the subject of bizarre conspiracy theories and received countless death threats as he was vilified by the right. So what’s the biggest misconception about you?”
Fauci said, “You know, I don’t know, Jon. I think the misconception is I was misleading people. You know, to say that I, who have been adviser to seven presidents and have never ever veered one way or the other from an ideological standpoint, for somebody to say that I’m political,
Three illegal aliens, all linked to human smuggling, are charged with murdering a 28-year-old man in El Paso, Texas while a fourth is on the run in Mexico.
On September 20, El Paso County Sheriff’s Office deputies discovered the body of 28-year-old Martin Iran Carreon Adame in a deserted area of town. According to police, Adame’s body had multiple gunshot wounds.
Gerardo Alfonso Saenz Holguin, a 27-year-old illegal alien, and Adolfo Sebastian Segura, a 20–year-old illegal alien, were identified by police as the prime murder suspects in the case two days after Adame’s body was found.
Both were arrested and charged with murder.
Channel 4, the British broadcaster, has bought a painting by Adolf Hitler and will poll a studio audience on whether to destroy it during a televised program titled Jimmy Carr Destroys Art.
During the show, comedian Jimmy Carr will host a panel will debate whether art by problematic artists such as Hitler can be separated from the people who made them, according to CNN and The Guardian.
A Channel 4 spokesperson told CNN that the Hitler painting will be shredded if the audience chooses to destroy it. The show was filmed Wednesday and is scheduled to air on October 24.
Nike co-founder Phil Knight says he will do anything to block Democrats from keeping their hold on Oregon's gubernatorial seat Saturday.
Knight, 84, has poured cash into the campaigns of Democrat Tina Kotek's opponents in the governors race. He helped to kickstart a campaign from Betsy Johnson, a former Democrat running as an independent, who is serving as a major spoiler for Kotek.
Johnson's candidacy is giving Republican Christinze Drazan the opportunity she needs in a liberal electorate no longer confident in the state's recent far-left policies.
Chilling bodycam footage captures the moment a wounded Bristol cop shoots dead the crazed Connecticut man who fatally gunned down two other officers.
The dramatic police video includes the sound of bullets flying and a woman hysterically screaming in the background while police Officer Alec Iurato, who is already wounded by cop killer Nicholas Brutcher, limps around the side of the attacker’s Redstone Hill home, gun in hand, as he radios for backup.
“Shots fired, shots fired,” Iurato is heard telling the dispatcher. “More cars. Send everyone.
Citadel owner Ken Griffin fled Lightfoot’s Chicago to Florida earlier this year — and he brought his company with him.
The hedge fund firm known as Citadel moved its operations to Florida, citing a more business-friendly environment.
In June CBS News reported:
In a note to employees at Citadel, Griffin announced he already has moved his family to Miami, and will soon be bringing the company with him, though some Citadel employees will remain in Chicago.
Illegal aliens, released into the United States interior by President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS), are now linked to a South American robbery gang targeting Indian Americans in Long Island, New York.
Three illegal aliens from Colombia — 20-year-old Brayan Alexis Ortiz-Ramos, 30-year-old Daniel Esteban Jimenez-Carrillo, and 33-year-old Gersson Jhoan Hernandez-Gomez — have been arrested and charged with second-degree burglary as a hate crime and conspiracy after allegedly burglarizing 20 to 30 homes in Long Island’s Indian American neighborhoods.

Obama Says He’s Open to Supreme Court
Reform but Warns against ‘Explicit Political Games’ 33 replies
Reform but Warns against ‘Explicit Political Games’ 33 replies
Former president Barack Obama said Friday that he is open to reforming the Supreme Court to increase Americans’ confidence in the Court, but warned against playing “explicit political games.”
Asked during an appearance on Pod Save America whether he would consider reforms to regain voters trust in the Court, Obama said: “I’m open to it.”
“I think it has to be thought through,” he said. “One of the arguments we made at the time when [Mitch] McConnell decided that … [Merrick Garland] wouldn’t even get a hearing or a vote, is that if you start playing such explicit political games in the appointment process, it’s hard for people not to feel
Politics is fun, isn’t it? You can play with the truth all you want, and, as long as you’re a member of the right party, you can throw all the crap you want against a wall just to see what sticks. And no one of any significance will say a word.
Of course, that’s only true if you’re a Democrat. That’s why when Joe Biden deadpanned that prices would rise if Republicans were elected, no one laughed — out loud, at least.
“Here’s the bottom line. So please hear this. When it actually comes time to do something about inflation around the table, Republicans in Congress are saying ‘no,'”
Only 33% of Americans would vote to reelect President Biden if the 2024 election were held today — and 54% would cast their ballot for another candidate, according to a Fox News poll released Sunday.
The 33% who would vote for Biden — 21% definitely and 12% probably — mark a drop of 3 percentage points since January, while the percentage who would opt for someone else fell from 60% to 54% in that period, the survey found.
The poll also shows that while 71% of Democrats would vote to reelect the president, 19% would not, along with 91% of Republicans and 54% of independents.

A selfie crowd formed around Pete Buttigieg as he stood in line for coffee at the airport in Washington. One woman said she wasn’t going to stop because she wasn’t sure it was him. “It’s me,” the Transportation secretary replied. An older man explained to his wife, “That’s Pete BOOT-GUG,” missing the pronunciation and the emphasis. “He’s the President’s…” the man said, unable to come up with his job title. And yet, it’s Buttigieg – whose only political experience before his failed presidential bid was serving as mayor of South Bend, Indiana – who has become the most requested surrogate
Paul Ryan, the losing vice presidential candidate on the Republican Party’s all-RINO 2012 ticket, says that Donald Trump, the only Republican candidate to win the presidency between 2004 and 2020, cannot win in 2024. Ryan, of course, really hopes that Trump will not regain the presidency, for that would mean the definitive end of the controlled-opposition establishment wing of the Republican Party, in which Ryan was once a central figure. But Ryan on Thursday went beyond expressing the hope that Trump would lose to stating confidently that he would.
According to the New York Post, the failed candidate, who also served as a singularly colorless and ineffective speaker of the House
Paul Ryan said he does not believe former president Donald Trump would be the GOP’s 2024 nominee for president.
The one-time Republican House speaker — who has had an acrimonious relationship with Trump — offered a blistering assessment Thursday during an interview with Teneo, a D.C. consulting shop where he serves as a vice-chairman.
Former Hillary Clinton senior staffer Huma Abedin is leaving the door open for a potential run for elected office.
In an interview Sunday on John Catsimatidis’ WABC 770 AM show “Cats Roundtable.,” Abedin — vice chair of Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and chief of staff during her failed bid for the 2008 Democratic nomination –conceded she’s more comfortable working behind the scenes.
“I’m in that phase of my life where I say, ‘Never say never,'” said Abedin, 46, alluding to past personal turmoil.
“Saturday Night Live” opened with its latest episode Saturday night with a sketch that took aim at Donald Trump and the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot.
“One person is responsible for this insurrection, Donald Trump, and one person will suffer the consequences: me,” said Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, played by Heidi Garner, after holding hands with her “best friend” Rep. Bennie Thompson (Kenan Thompson).
Thompson let his panel-mates know that after presenting evidence they would all get the chance to enjoy “a little treat,” and showed off a tin of cupcakes,
With the midterms less than a month away, left-leaning news outlets and political commentators are resorting to dark predictions about the future of the country with warnings of imminent civil war if Republicans retake control of Congress in November. Talk of a second civil war among liberal journalists, television personalities and lawmakers has become increasingly commonplace following the raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home on Aug. 8, after which liberal pundits repeatedly claimed on-air that evolving distrust for the U.S. government among Trump supporters would lead to escalated political violence.
The topic resurfaced weeks later when President Biden called his predecessor and "MAGA Republicans" a threat to "the very foundations of our republic"
Outgoing National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that for people to think he is political is “completely crazy.”
Anchor Jon Karl said, “Fauci became the subject of bizarre conspiracy theories and received countless death threats as he was vilified by the right. So what’s the biggest misconception about you?”

White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said Sunday that President Biden does not currently intend to meet with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the G20 summit next month in Indonesia, after the Saudi Arabia-led OPEC+ group of oil-producing nations decided to cut oil production.
"He has no plans to meet with the crown prince at the G20 summit," Sullivan said on CNN. "He is focused, however, on making sure that through every engagement that he has across the board, he’s looking out for, not just the U.S., but for our allies as well."
Sullivan spoke briefly about the White House’s vows to "re-evaluate" the U.S. relationship with Saudi Arabia
Democratic pollster Fernand Amandi called Florida the "MAGA Republican capital of the confederacy" during the latest episode of MSNBC’s "The Cross Connection with Tiffany Cross."
The frequent MSNBC guest offered his incendiary claim as part of a panel discussion about a recent Anti-Defamation League report detailing how many of America’s domestic extremists, including those who trespassed on Capitol grounds on January 6, are from Florida.
The segment clearly aimed at demonizing the Republican stronghold state governed by possible 2024 contender Ron DeSantis, a strategy that host Tiffany Cross has routinely employed on her show. Cross really leaned into it this time, introducing the discussion by calling Florida a "haven of hate"
