New Yorker Sh*ts in Theater Aisle Near Hillary and Chelsea Clinton at Broadway Show
[GatewayPundit] Hillary and Chelsea Clinton were surprised to find a turd in the aisle by their seats during intermission at the Shubert Theater in New York City last week.

The mother and daughter were seeing "Some Like it Hot" on Broadway when the incident occurred.
The turdster wishes they'd ate more fiber and garlic.
The New York Post reported:
Page Six hears that a serial pooper has been stalking the halls of the legendary Shubert Theater — and the last time they struck, a turd appeared in the aisle near Hillary and Chelsea Clinton at "Some Like It Hot."

A source close to the show insists that it was a regrettable one-off incident.

But another source tells us that the theater’s staff said that the s—t’s (almost) hit the fans at other performances as well.

"Last week when Hillary and Chelsea Clinton were in the audience," said a source, "the lights came up for intermission and there were two human turds in the aisle just near the famous political duo."

The insider added, "The house crew dealt with it very appropriately and quickly, and Hillary and Chelsea remained in the theater for the second act."
Where was the dementia potato head fake poopy pants president?
Courtesy of 746, Townhall adds:
"It was an elderly person and it’s rather sad, but yes, the house staff worked quickly to help resolve the situation and Act II started as scheduled."

The first insider says that after the most recent incident, an eyewitness "spoke to the house manager, who said that it was actually the fourth time it had happened."

The source wildly speculated, "There is someone who is either s—tting in the aisle, or surreptitiously dumping defecation that they smuggled into the theater."

#18  Hillary shat in the aisle?

A possible explanation even without invoking the "He who smelt it, dealt it" rule. Hard to imagine some old, homeless person was attending the same Broadway performance as Hillary and Chelsea. And how can you not notice someone pooping in the aisle next to you?

Perhaps forensics could tell us whether said turd is old and dried up like Hillary herself.

Yellen says bank situation 'stabilizing,' system is 'sound'
[An Nahar] Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is trying project calm after regional bank failures, saying the U.S. banking system is "sound" but additional rescue arrangements "could be warranted" if any new failures at smaller institutions pose a risk to financial stability.

Yellen, in an excerpt of remarks prepared for delivery to the American Bankers Association on Tuesday, says that overall "the situation is stabilizing."

"And the U.S. banking system remains sound," Yellen says.

Yellen's remarks come after a series of troubling bank developments this month.

Silicon Valley Bank, based in Santa Clara, Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, failed on March 10 after depositors rushed to withdraw money amid anxiety over the bank's health. It was the second-largest bank collapse in U.S. history. Regulators convened over the following weekend and announced that New York-based Signature Bank also had failed. They said that all depositors at both banks, including those holding uninsured funds, those exceeding $250,000, would be protected by federal deposit insurance.

And last week a third bank, the Socialist paradise of San Francisco
...where God struck dead Anton LaVey, home of the Sydney Ducks, ruled by Vigilance Committee from 1859 through 1867, reliably and volubly Democrat since 1964...
-based First Republic Bank, was fortified by $30 billion in funds raised by 11 of the biggest U.S. banks in an attempt to prevent it from collapsing.

The government is now determined to restore public confidence in the banking system and to prevent any more turmoil. The Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission have launched investigations into the Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing...
has called on Congress to strengthen rules on regional banks and to impose tougher penalties on executives of failed banks.

Yellen, in her prepared remarks, says the government's intervention was necessary to "protect the broader banking system" and more rescue efforts could be necessary.

"Similar actions could be warranted if smaller institutions suffer deposit runs that pose the risk of contagion," she says.

Yellen faced the Senate Finance Committee last week and offered upbeat reassurances to rattled bank depositors and investors that the U.S. banking system "remains sound" and Americans "can feel confident" about the safety of their deposits.

She will appear in front of congressional panels twice more this week, in the Senate and the House, and will inevitably face more questions about the nature of the bank failures and the government's effort to quell them.

"Let me be clear: The government's recent actions have demonstrated our resolute commitment to take the necessary steps to ensure that depositors' savings and the banking system remain safe," she said.

#5  I have been retired for 8 years now, but I think I'm still familiar enough with the banking system to say that I agree with her this time. Stopped clock and all that.

Her trouble is that she (and the rest of the administration) has no credibility at all. As #3 DarthVader observed, she could say that the sky is blue, and people would check. Credibility, once lost, is very difficult to recover.

Government Corruption
BREAKING: Trump Grand Jury Session Abruptly Canceled
[PJMedia] On Wednesday morning, Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social that Bragg was having problems with the grand jury. “The Rogue prosecutor, who is having a hard time with the Grand Jury, especially after the powerful testimony against him by Felon Cohen’s highly respected former lawyer, is attempting to build a case that has NEVER BEEN BROUGHT BEFORE AND ACTUALLY, CAN’T BE BROUGHT,” he claimed. “If he spent this time, effort, and money on fighting VIOLENT CRIME, which is destroying NYC, our once beautiful and safe Manhattan, which has become an absolute HELLHOLE, would be a much better place to live!”

Trump was clearly on to something. The Wednesday session of the grand jury has been canceled, according to a report from Business Insider.

Two law enforcement officers have informed Insider that the grand jury in the Trump case has been instructed not to report for duty on Wednesday — the day previous reports suggested there would be a possible indictment vote against former President Donald Trump. Although there is no confirmed schedule beyond Wednesday, one of the sources, speaking anonymously, indicated that it is doubtful the grand jury will convene at all this week. The grand jury typically meets on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, and Fox News reports that the grand jury is on standby for Thursday.

Former Michael Cohen legal advisor Robert Costello, a surprise witness this week, was touted by Trump as having conclusive and irrefutable evidence to exonerate him. Amongst other testimony damaging to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s efforts to nab Trump, it was revealed that Bragg, who is already the target of a House GOP investigation for abuse of power, may have concealed exculpatory evidence from the grand jury.
Concealing exculpatory evidence is bad. President Trump’s lawyers are going to have fun with that, if AG Bragg really did that

DA Bragg to cross the Rubicon and divide the nation by indicting Trump
[NYPOST] How much does a mug shot mean to you?

To Alvin Bragg, it apparently means quite a lot.

All signs point to Bragg, Manhattan’s progressive prosecutor, indicting Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
for his 2016 hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels.

The old Karl Marx line is that history repeats itself first as tragedy, then as farce.

This historic first-ever indictment of a former president of the United States would skip straight to farce.

First, there’s the tawdry and relatively trivial subject matter.

Trump stands accused by his critics on the left of fomenting an insurrection to overthrow the Constitution, and the criminal offense they are going to get him on stems from a dalliance with a porn star in 2006.

Then, more important, there’s the question of the merits. Unless Bragg has something unexpected on Trump, this appears to be a prosecution in search of a legal theory.

Everything indicates Bragg is more interested in subjecting Trump to the humiliations attendant to getting charged (turning himself in, getting fingerprinted and photographed) and the grinding distraction of defending himself against a criminal charge than the cogency of the case itself.

As The New York Times

... which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...

put it last week, the Bragg case "hinges on an untested and therefore risky legal theory involving a complex interplay of laws, all amounting to a low-level felony."

In other words, exactly what you want to indict a former president on.

Posted by: DooDahMan || 03/22/2023 8:25 Comments || Top||

#4  The indictment is a dumb idea for the Dems and Deep State because the case is so weak and the effort is transparent as political targeting. It is good for Bragg, though, as he will have fulfilled the will of his master Sauron. It also will be popular in the small toilet sized political pool in which he currently floats. Like the squad, Bragg cares little about the popularity of Democrats nationally.

#6  Bragg and whatever idiot is pulling his strings are playing with fire. They are irresponsible. Like Nazi Germany, the prosecutors and judicial system made up crimes and laws against enemies. These are dangerous times with a moron at the helm totally owned by the CCP.
Posted by: JohnQC || 03/22/2023 11:46 Comments || Top||

#7  IF this case ever goes to trial, the first thing Trump's lawyers need to do is get a change of venue. No way in hell can he get a fair trial in New York.

But here's a question: How can the prosecution prove that Trump had sex with that woman, Ms. Daniels? It's kinda like a rape case in that sense isn't it? If the alleged victim takes a shower, she washes critical evidence down the drain. Without any other evidence, it gets down to "He said. She said." An impartial jury would need more than that to convict. And if Ms. Daniels cannot prove that she ever had sex with Trump, how can she allege that he paid her hush money for it? She's just another whore claiming she had sex with a celebrity. Not the most credible witness.
Posted by: Abu Uluque || 03/22/2023 12:05 Comments || Top||

#8  BTW, women who make pr0n are whores because they get paid to have sex. That is the very definition of prostitution. DA Bragg is basing his entire case on the testimony of a whore.
Posted by: Abu Uluque || 03/22/2023 12:13 Comments || Top||

#9  But then, the way DA Bragg has compromised his integrity for the money he got from George Soros, some folks might consider him to be a whore as well.

#10  How can the prosecution prove that Trump had sex with that woman

disclaimer: Not a lawyer
My understanding is the case is not about boinking but accounting: Was the payoff business-as-usual celebrity hush money or was it an illegal use of campaign funds? DA Bragg is alleging a campaign finance law violation.

#13  "Why Johnny Tyler! Where are you going with that legal theory?"
Posted by: swksvolFF || 03/22/2023 13:30 Comments || Top||

#14  The entire charade, dressed up as law enforcement, is the political theater for the media and useful idiots of the Demokrat base. The outcome of the case tried before a Manhattan jury pool might well be guilty, since Trump-hate is epidemic, the facts and actual law notwithstanding. In the long run, even our biased and sclerotic appeals courts would overturn the farce. But the theater of the absurd outcome either way doesn't matter, it is the display of POWER they seek, the optics. Trump beaten, made to obey, tainted! That is the holy grail for the Marxists who control the government.

If it precipitates a violent set of reactions by Trump supporters, it is a gift that emboldens the Puppet Show to act to curtail even more freedom of speech.

What would actually be massively impactful is peaceful, but widespread cessation of everything. The national strike that cripples Washington DC in a few days, and sends shockwaves as the depth of the national anger is displayed, peacefully, but insistently. If the genuine American people cannot muster unified, collective determination to show our now unrepresentative government how angry we are, our passivity ensures the acceleration of our disintegration as a nation.

#20  If fhis were about campaign fund irregularities, wouldn't this be in the wheelhouse of the Federal Election Commission not an eager-beaver prosecutor in lower Manhattan.

If this were about hush money being paid to Stormy Daniels, isn't this a common legal ploy to get rid of nuisance claims in a civil court case? How did a civil case suddenly become a criminal case?

I thought this case was dealt with earlier in the courts?

This is radical left-wing lawfare (read as persecution). Such cases undermine the legal and judicial system.
