[LIFE SITE] SEATTLE, Washington, July 19, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) — Ed Murray, Seattle's homosexual mayor who is "married" to another man and politically backed by the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund, abused his foster son, according to a child-welfare investigator.
At least four men have come forward to accuse Murray of rape.
Delvonn Heckard says Murray "raped and molested" him as a teenager. Lloyd Anderson made a similar accusation against Murray in 2007. Jeff Simpson has repeatedly stated that Murray anally raped him for three years while he was Murray's foster son in the 1980s, starting when he was 13.
Both Heckard and Simpson said Murray gave them money for sex. Simpson added that Murray gave him drugs for sex, too.
[NYPOST] The B.O. regime was poised to send armed federal agents to polling places, deploy the military and launch full-scale counter-propaganda measures in case hackers disrupted the vote on Election Day, according to a report.
The 15-page playbook, produced in October, outlined the "enhanced measures" the government was prepared to take in the event of a "significant incident," Time magazine reported Thursday, citing a copy of the document.
"In almost all potential cases of malicious cyber activity impacting election infrastructure, state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, to include their law enforcement agencies, will have primary jurisdiction to respond," it says.
The playbook coordinated the responsibilities of the different government agencies -- Department of Homeland Security, Justice Department and FBI -- and dictated how they would "activate enhanced procedures and allocate the resources described in their enhanced coordination procedures to coordinate incident response activities."

Other "enhanced measures" included a media backed, Russian conspiracy disinformation campaign.

The B.O. regime was poised to send armed federal agents to polling places, deploy the military and launch full-scale counter-propaganda measures in case hackers disrupted the vote on Election Day, according to a report....Or was it to insure the Hillary-rigged election went on without interference? Obama was and still is a very dangerous guy to the U.S.A.
One reason the Dems are so deranged about Trump's win is that they all believed their fake polls which said Hilda would win by a wide margin. When it didn't happen they went nuts and went to Plan B; the fake Russian collusion scheme to try to take down Trump. They won't be satisfied until they do. They are trying to nullify an election.

...The more I see things like this, the more I'm convinced that the most recent season of 'House of Cards' was scrapped and then refilmed after the election.

My Poli Sci degree didn't include that in my copy of the USConstitution. What did I miss?
The progressive left (evil to their core) long to have their own replay of October 1917 in Russia. That's the real "Russian collusion" scandal.

You just don't deploy the military. It takes time, planning, logistics. And sufficient manpower to cover it all within reasonable distance. Hardly going to be a secret. Somebody's pipe dream.
#10
Consider part of the motivation for the never-ending Russia tampering with the elections meme being pushed by the MSM, Progs and the WaPo an NYSlimes. If you lay enough pipe about there being some truth behind the "tampering", even if you don't topple Trump, just damage his ability to get things done, you create a narrative in the minds of many that we need to prevent this "something Russian" threat to our elections. Voila, rather than the tamper proof, easily verified paper ballot and voter roles, you get electronic voting, monitored and eventually managed by the federal government. Stalin smiles, because once they count the votes, it will be federal, union, overwhelmingly democrat employees "counting" the votes! Think long game. Clinton/Gore massively enhanced the immigration influx of unskilled, non European legal immigrants and started the whole "diversity" meme. How did that work out for us so far? Same tactic here, long game, not the current reactive crisis de jour by conservatives who can't see the end state the progs have in mind.
[FoxNews] The motto of the state of Maine is Dirigo – Latin for ‘I lead'. Bellwether wants to know who's leading the fight to protect little girls in Maine from genital mutilation.
A Republican-sponsored bill to outlaw the barbaric procedure is being opposed by Democrats, who say they fear it will offend the cultural sensitivity of the approximately 10,000 Somalis living in the state. But there's an uglier, more malevolent reason lurking behind the scenes.
Female genital mutilation – in which a young girl's clitoris is cut out and her vagina stitched closed – is commonly practiced in Somalia, where it is estimated 90 percent of the female population has undergone the ritual. The intention is to ensure that girls remain chaste until they are married, and that they derive no pleasure from sexual activity.
With the arrival over the past several years of thousands of Somali refugees and asylum seekers in Maine, the tradition of FGM also crossed the ocean. So-called "cutters", who are usually female midwives, often perform the procedure without anesthesia and with dirty razor blades. Some victims suffer from urinary tract problems as a result.
"I had never heard of it, when someone first brought to my attention that it could be happening here," says state Rep. Heather Sirocki, a Republican. "I said, ‘You're kidding me, right?'" Once she was convinced it was no joke, Sirocki introduced legislation to ban genital mutilation in Maine. Such was her initial naïveté, she thought the bill would pass unanimously.
Then came an avalanche of criticism from progressive groups like the American Civil Liberties Union and immigrant aid organizations, who argue that it is not the state's role to interfere with cultural traditions that run counter to American values.
"I believe they are more afraid of offending someone than they are in protecting little girls," says Sirocki. "We believe the immigrant population is vulnerable. I want to get this done this year." That's because Sirocki is a four-term member of the House, and by Maine law, cannot run again for re-election next year.
No one in the legislature is openly defending FGM – that might turn off even the most liberal Mainers. Democrats contend that child protection laws already on the books are sufficient, and that singling out genital mutilation would be disrespectful of the Somalis' cultural inheritance. Sirocki says she was stunned by that argument.
She was in for an even bigger shock when a Democrat, who supports the bill, approached her. As Sirocki tells it, "She said to me, ‘Heather, you know how when a member of our party submits a bill, Republicans kill it simply because a Democrat submitted it? That's what's happening here.'"
Then it got even worse. By Sirocki's account, Democratic Rep. Barbara Cardone of Bangor, who opposes the bill, said she would wait until next year, when Sirocki was out of office, then submit the bill in her own name, so that Democrats would get credit for protecting children.
When I asked Cardone about that meeting, she told me: "I don't know that it will be the same bill. I will propose a criminal bill. And it's so I can say that I'm going to address this. I'm not doing it because I want a Democratic victory."
"I don't know if they're telling the truth," Sirocki said of the opposition party. "They're not known for that."
Sirocki says what she learned about FGM as she prepared the bill exposed her to things she'd just as soon not know. "I'm trying to stay focused on the law making it illegal. When you actually think about what's happening to these girls, it's just so horrible."
Equally horrible is blocking a common-sense law when it might save young girls from lifelong disfigurement for political reasons.
[DAILYSIGNAL] As the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity convenes its first meeting on Wednesday, the issue of voter fraud in American elections has become even more contentious and hyperbolic.
One of the left’s main arguments against reform is that voter fraud simply does not occur. How liberals arrive at this conclusion, we cannot say.
Time and again, studies and analyses point to one incontrovertible conclusion: that voter fraud is a real and pressing issue that deserves serious solutions, and The Heritage Foundation has the evidence to prove it.
On Thursday, The Heritage Foundation is releasing a new edition of its voter fraud database. Featuring well over 100 new cases, the database documents 1,071 instances of voter fraud spanning 47 states, including 938 criminal convictions.

Apparently we aren't considering the other obvious conclusion that most voter fraud favors liberals?
[TAMPABAY] Mayoral candidate Paul Congemi has made national news for a racial tirade at Tuesday’s mayoral forum when he told supporters of International People's Democratic Uhuru Movement-affiliated candidate Jesse Nevel to "go back to Africa."
In the midst of a question about opportunities for youth in the city, Congemi veered off topic in a bizarre way:
"Mr. Nevel, you and your people, you talk about reparations. The reparations that you talk about, Mr. Nevel, your people already got your reparations," Congemi said. "Your reparations came in the form of a man named Barack Obama Ready to Rule from Day One... The large contingent of Nevel’s supporters erupted in disbelief and outrage. "Get out of here!" a woman shouted repeatedly.
Congemi didn't stop there: "My advice to you, my advice to you, if you don’t like it here in America, planes leave every hour. Go back to Africa, go back to Africa."
His comments were directed at Nevel, who is white. He is the national chair of the Uhuru Solidarity Movement, a group that organizes white support for black-led community social justice. It is an organization that works with the main Uhuru organization, which has many African-American members, including founder and activist Omali Yeshitela.
As his comments reverberated around the internet on Wednesday, Congemi, who usually favors handwritten letters, emailed the following statement to the Tampa Bay Times.
"I must comment on the remarks I said last night ... Yes: I did tell those people to go back to Africa," Congemi wrote. "My remark was meant for the group Mr. Nevel represents. Not all African Americans. Just those that Nevel represents."
After Congemi’s outburst, Nevel dismissed him as a "non-factor." Former Mayor Rick Baker later rebuked Congemi. Mayor Rick Kriseman didn't say anything at the forum. On Wednesday, the mayor said he regretted not confronting Congemi for his "bigoted rhetoric."
Nevel plans to hold a news conference at 11 a.m. Thursday to criticize Kriseman for remaining silent at the forum.
Congemi wasn’t done with his attacks. He also assailed Kriseman for his support of the LGBT community.
"I will never endorse sin," Congemi said.
This is the 60-year-old Congemi’s third run for mayor. His previous runs netted a few hundred votes. Over the years, he has referred to himself as a retired builder; a homeless advocate; a singer-songwriter; the founder of his own political party with 105,000 members; and, most recently, as a "constellation."

IMO, Congemi doesn't expect to win, he's looking for a soapbox for his ideas. His ideas are not exactly a winning message as evidenced by the results from the previous attempts to run for mayor.
[NATIONALREVIEW] Progressives have a problem: They ladle unto every decision, even the most mundane and trifling one, an unattractive glop of gooey political significance. They can’t resist warning the rest of us that we’re abetting the destruction of the planet every time we, say, tuck into a Quarter Pounder.
Josh Barro is a recovering ex-Republican who is now a member of a niche political group: the non-crazy Democrats. He coined a cute phrase — “the hamburger problem” — to describe the relentless politicization of everything by progressives and Democrats. He writes, “Democrats’ problem isn’t that they’re on the wrong side of policy issues. It’s that they’re too ready to bother too many ordinary people about too many of their personal choices, all the way down to the hamburgers they eat.”
He cites nonstop Democratic hectoring on, inter alia, the team name of the Washington Redskins, the way men sit on subway trains, and even some Americans’ choice not to abide by China’s one-child standard as the reasons why the party is today as electorally wobbly as Rocky Balboa in the 15th round.

Yet the GOP’s success puzzles him still, because so many core Democratic cultural ideals (notably, gay marriage and marijuana decriminalization) poll more and more strongly.
Fake Polls. Goes with Fake News(c).
If you look at each of the items, what can be implied is individual freedom to choose (not necessarily to impose). The Donks believe in the Plantation system in which the master up in the big house, tells everyone what they will do.
[Free Beacon] The FBI has turned over 7,000 new documents from former Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner's laptop to the State Department.
The disclosure is part of the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch's lawsuit in relation to the Hillary Clinton private email investigation, Fox News reported Thursday.
Judicial Watch and State Department representatives appeared in federal court in Washington, D.C., on Thursday over the group's Freedom of Information Act suit seeking Clinton emails from her tenure at the State Department.
It emerged during the hearing that the 7,000 new documents were turned over. The trove is expected to contain some emails sent by Weiner's estranged wife, Clinton aide Huma Abedin.
Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton told Fox News after the hearing that they expect to begin receiving those documents in three months, once the State Department determines whether the Weiner documents are government or personal records.

Just now? Gee, what transpired between the time it was discovered there was a trove of inappropriately copied documents on Carlos Danger's computer and just now? Something in the latter half of last year, some event in November. I can almost recall what it was...

7000 of 650,000 documents on Weiner's pron computer. I thought Comey had agents look at these one weekend and found there was nothing to see (sarc). Maybe there were classified documents on the computer.

There are cloud encircled Himalayan towers of evidence and dozens of potential co-conspirators which clearly point to the inappropriate conduct and potential criminal activity of the Clinton's. With the exception of Judicial Watch and a few other NGO truth seekers, nothing is done by anyone, nor will anything likely ever be done.

[ChicagoTribune] Cook County judges will soon be explicitly required to set affordable bond amounts for defendants who do not pose a danger to the public. Like Inner-City Gangbangers that don't frequent the North Shore or trendy suburbs where the judges live
Beginning Sept. 18, judges will be prohibited from setting a higher bond than felony defendants can afford to pay. The same rule will apply to misdemeanor cases starting in January.
Critics have said the current setup unfairly punishes people who pose no risk of violence but languish in Cook County Jail because they cannot afford bail sometimes of only a few hundred dollars.
State law already requires judges to consider a defendant's financial circumstances before setting bond. The law says the bond cannot be "oppressive," but critics say judges often flout that requirement.
Late last year, on the heels of similar lawsuits in eight other states, advocates filed a proposed class-action lawsuit in Cook County Circuit Court alleging that criminal court judges routinely set cash bail at unaffordable levels, depriving arrestees of their constitutional right to pretrial liberty. What about the liberties of the average folks in the communities where these miscreants operate?
Under the new Cook County policy, defendants will be interviewed about their financial resources before a bond hearing. That information will be provided to judges, who then will be required to set a bond that the defendant "has the present ability to pay," according to the policy. And like they're going to correctly tell you their financial status
"I think people who are arrested will be given the full recognition that they are presumed innocent," Cook County Chief Judge Timothy Evans, who signed the order outlining the new policy, told the Tribune in a telephone interview. "Even when we see them shoot or stab someone, they're INNOCENT I tell ya"
Defendants who are currently in jail because they cannot afford to post bond can have a judge reconsider their bail after the new policy takes effect, Evans said. "And they'll vote for me in the next election"
Judges will then be required to deny bail altogether or set a new bond in an amount the defendant can afford.
Advocates of bond reform, including Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx, applauded the decision. They all live in the suburbs, too
"There is often no clear relationship between the posting of a cash bond and securing the safety of the community or the appearance of a defendant," Foxx said in a statement Monday. "As a result, far too many people have been detained pre-trial because they are poor and unable to post even minimal amounts for bond."
Since taking office late last year, Foxx has taken several steps toward reforming bail. In March she announced that prosecutors would no longer oppose the release of some detainees held on nonviolent offenses who were stuck in jail because they could not pay up to $1,000 cash on their bonds. In June her office announced that prosecutors would recommend recognizance bonds for some defendants.
Cara Smith, chief policy officer for Sheriff Tom Dart said it remains to be seen if the policy will affect the Cook County Jail population, given that judges already were supposed to consider a defendant's financial situation when setting bond. Where's the graft in that?
As many as about 400 detainees remain in jail on any given day because they are unable to pay bonds of up to $1,000 cash, Smith said. Probably should have been actually doing something productive rather than whatever they did, then
It costs about $160 per day -- or nearly $60,000 per year -- to house one person at the jail, Smith said. If the detainee has medical or mental health needs, that cost can soar higher. They could take lessons from Sherriff Joe, but they probably won't
Activists will continue to keep a close eye on judges to make sure they comply with the law, said Sharlyn Grace, co-founder of the Chicago Community Bond Fund, See - 'Community Organizer'
which helps detainees post bail from jail.
"It is as effective as it is followed by judges," Grace said. "And if we continue to collect donations and grant money"

The experience in California while in a senior criminal justice policy position showed me the utter waste of prison expenses. The sunk costs of the brick and mortar facility taper over time until they are building maintenance for any industrial complex. The security costs are significant for equipment, commo, and electronics. The feeding and medical costs are similar to any residential military facility. But the real cost is personnel, enormous costs for correctional officers whose salary, medical, and pension personnel-year are calculated for rank and file at $160k/annum. But, the darling part, is the undercover support for no new prison construction. Why? Because then they have the crowding issues, can put multiple inmates in cells or dorms, and have enormous OVERTIME expenses, which are then computed by the state personnel system to define the "high one" year of service to compute the retirement pension. The Oakland bus drivers used the same system gaming techniques to get last year overtime, resulting in bus drivers with 100k pensions. Its a scam folks, and Chicago is at the zenith of that kind of thinking!!!!

Overcrowding? Back in them old days, it wasn't a problem when they shuffled off to their final judgement. Only a rich nation can afford to warehouse so much sociopathic population to signal its virtue while its productive citizenry are expected to suck it up with a revolving door of incarceration which means to bear the rape, assault, robbery and death. Who really suffers cruel and unusual punishment?
