Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 7/22/2025 6:10:09 PM

A shocking report from FOX 11 Los Angeles concluded that not a single dollar raised for victims of the California wildfires this year actually went to the victims. According to FOX 11, over $100 million was raised for families in Southern California who lost everything in the wildfires. Many families left their homes with the clothes on their backs and a few belongings. After the fires subsided and they returned to their properties, all that was left was rubble. Journalist Sue Pascoe lost her home in the fires. One of her readers, who also lost their home,

No surprise. "Pascoe contacted the Annenberg Foundation, which was overseeing wildfire funds. They never responded. They never answered calls, either. Weeks later, someone reached out and told her to contact Chris Wallace, the foundation's communications officer. “I contacted Chris, and I said, ‘You know, victims want to know when they can get their money.’” That’s when Pascoe was told that all the money would go to nonprofits. “Initially, they gave about $50 million to about 120 nonprofits…" The Annenberg Foundation has long long been a major supporter of PBS. If this was a real bombshell one of the reporters would have dug and dug until they got the name of every nonpfofit who got money. That includes the author of THIS article. Right now she's just a spectator.

WASHINGTON — Russian intelligence obtained damaging information about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s health amid her 2016 presidential campaign — including evidence that she had “psycho-emotional problems” that were being treated with severe sedatives — but Vladimir Putin chose not to release it before that year’s election because he thought the Democrat would win. The astounding revelations were contained in a Sept. 18, 2020, House Intelligence Committee report that reviewed Russia’s influence on the 2016 contest and was declassified and made public Wednesday by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. Russia’s foreign intelligence service, the SVR, “possessed DNC communications that Clinton was suffering from ‘intensified psycho-emotional problems,

Most of the economic indices they point to are on the upswing.

When Hamid Moghadam, CEO of San Francisco-based Prologis — the largest industrial real estate firm in the world — sounded the alarm in a recent Bloomberg interview that “construction costs are going to go up radically... all of this immigration stuff is putting more pressure on construction,” he wasn’t just talking dollars and cents. He was exposing the dirty secret about California’s construction labor market that Democrats have spent decades covering up. For too long, California Democrats have gaslit the public, claiming illegal immigration fills jobs “Americans won’t do.” The truth? Illegal immigration props up a rigged system that actively shuts out legal American workers.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released further evidence Wednesday morning, which she claims shows the Obama administration's direct involvement in the 2016 post-presidential election Russia hoax. Gabbard, describing the plot as the "most egregious weaponization and politicization of intelligence in American history," posted a series of lies which have, in her view, been debunked by declassifying a 2020 House Intelligence Committee report. The report was an assessment of how the Obama administration manufactured a January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment, which portrayed Russia as having influenced the 2016 election in favor of Donald Trump. That assessment was "false," Gabbard writes,

As we now know, thousands of documents and pardons weren’t signed by then-President Joe Biden during his disastrous tenure—they were “signed” by a robotic autopen. Both the House Oversight Committee and the White House Counsel’s Office are currently investigating whether they are all legal, considering Ole Joe may not have even known that certain measures were being autographed in his name. At least one senator doesn’t believe the pardons will stand up to legal scrutiny, and he wants to kill two birds with one stone: challenge them in court, and charge former Chief Medical Advisor to the President and serial fabulist Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Matt covered this Monday. In a shocking incident, a Delta pilot had to inform passengers and apologize for an aggressive maneuver he made to avoid a potential mid-air collision with a B-52 bomber. “Sorry about the aggressive maneuver. It caught me by surprise,” the Delta pilot said, which was captured on video. “This is not normal at all. I don’t know why they didn’t give us a heads up.” [Tweet, video] Predictably, this near-miss made headlines all over the country. To recap, just months ago, a mid-air collision between a military helicopter and a commercial airliner occurred over the Potomac River in Washington, D.C, killing everyone on board.

A sweeping new bill to create a Cabinet-level Secretary of the Coast Guard has cleared committee and is ready to head for a vote on the House floor. Congress and the Department of Homeland Security want to elevate the Coast Guard to better match the stature of other military branches, especially as it takes on growing roles in stopping illegal migration and drug trafficking under the Trump administration. Representative Mike Ezell (R-MS), Representative Sam Graves (R-MO), Rick Larsen (D-WA), and Salud Carbajal (D-CA) introduced the Coast Guard Authorization Act on July 2nd, and the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee passed the measure on July 15th.

Folks on the left are still mourning the death of alleged comedian Stephen Colbert, who was recently fired from hosting “The Late Show.” When the news about Colbert’s impending departure surfaced, leftists on the airwaves and interwebs pounced on the opportunity to slam CBS for canning him, saying it was somehow a violation of free speech. Others suggested that it was the fault of President Donald Trump. In a recent airing of “The View,” co-host Sunny Hostin joined the fray of frantic phonies pretending Colbert’s firing was a free speech issue. She intimated that the motivation behind the development “could be financial” or “purely political.”

Barack Obama has broken his silence on calls from Donald Trump for him to be prosecuted by unequivocally rejecting his successor’s accusations that he tried to engineer a “coup” following Trump’s 2016 election victory by “manufacturing” evidence of Russian interference. Obama’s office took the unusual step of issuing an emphatic refutation after Trump told reporters that his predecessor had “[tried] to lead a coup” against him and was guilty of “treason” over intelligence assessments suggesting that Russia had intervened to help Trump defeat Hillary Clinton in the campaign. “Out of respect for the office of the presidency,

I was a kid during the Watergate hearings in 1973 and 1974, after Richard Nixon's historic landslide re-election. I wasn't too interested in politics at that point - I was 12 - but my Dad made me sit and watch all the coverage with him, admonishing me that "this is history being made." This is the same man, mind you, who a year or two later made me read Aristotle's "Organon" - then quizzed me on it afterward.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has declassified a trove of documents that expose how the Obama administration faked the January 2017 intelligence report to falsely accuse Trump of colluding with Russia. The evidence includes a 2020 House Intelligence Committee report, which confirms that despite no cyber interference from Russia, Obama pushed for a new intelligence community assessment (ICA) in late 2016 to shape a narrative that Putin was helping Trump. It was all part of a desperate attempt to undermine a duly elected president.

Voters who responded to the online national poll of 1,421 adults, taken from June 25 to June 27, were asked the following question: “Do you think the Democratic Party has become too radical in its views and policies?” A strong plurality of 45% of all poll respondents said yes, while 36% said no and another 18% said they weren’t sure.

The media company has agreed to pay the production company owned by South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker $1.5 billion for the global streaming rights for the next five years. HBO Max previously held the streaming rights to the show. Paramount has, instead, aired South Park original films on its streaming service.
