[NYP] The daughter of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was arrested last month for allegedly driving with a suspended license, according to a report in Georgia.
Kinaya Willis, 25, was pulled over in Tyrone, Ga., on Aug. 24 for driving while using a cellphone when police discovered she also had a revoked license, according to an incident report obtained by the Daily Mail.
The Texas Southern University student, whose mom is leading the prosecution of former President Donald Trump’s 2020 Georgia election interference case, is reportedly pregnant.
She told an officer that she had been using her cellphone “due to her mother calling her related to her pregnancy,” the report notes.
Kinaya claimed she was “unaware” that her license had been revoked since May 13, also for allegedly driving while it was suspended.
[ZeroHedge] In yet another headline you won't see from corporate media, 75% of those arrested in Midtown Manhattan in recent months for crimes like assault, robbery, and domestic violence are migrants.
In Queens, it's around 60%, the NY Post reports, citing police sources.
On any given day, Big Apple criminal court dockets are packed with asylum seekers who have run afoul of the law.
The problem is made much worse by sanctuary city laws that mean New York cops aren’t allowed to work with ICE on cases in which they believe suspects are in the country illegally. Additionally, the NYPD says it is barred from tracking the immigration status of offenders.
According to the report, the sanctuary city laws make it 'almost impossible' for authorities to handle the problem.
"New York City eliminated a tool to get rid of violent criminals. What a mess," said Jim Quinn, a veteran former prosecutor at the Queens District Attorney’s Office.
"The sanctuary city law is pathetic. It’s disgusting. It’s crazy."
Compounding matters, police sources say that word has gotten out among the migrant community about NYC's soft-on-crime policies which kicks criminals back onto the street quickly after they're arrested.
And even if they do end up serving time, one Bronx cop told the Post: "They don’t care if they get arrested — they laugh if they get sent to Rikers. Where they come from, they get tortured in jail."
The problem is so bad that Democrat Mayor Eric Adams has called on the City Council to change the sanctuary city laws - saying last week: "Right now, we don’t have the authorization to be able to go and coordinate with ICE. We have to follow the law."
According to a NYPD spokesperson, overall crime may be down last year, however they confirmed that "police officers are prohibited from asking about the immigration status of crime victims, witnesses, or suspects and therefore the NYPD doesn’t track data pertaining to immigration statuses."
"I would say about 75% of the arrests in Midtown Manhattan are migrants, mostly for robberies, assaults, domestic incidents and selling counterfeit items," one Midtown officer told the outlet.
He said the figure is an estimate because “you can’t be 100% sure [they’re migrants] unless you arrest them in a shelter or they’re dumb enough to give you a shelter address.”
Another Manhattan cop said that excluding petty larcenies at drugstores, the number of local arrests involving migrants is “easily” 75%, noting that most who get caught shoplifting go more for the pricey branded goods.
"They can’t be bothered with lower-end stores. They like Lululemon and Sunglass Hut," said the Manhattan cop, adding that migrants are responsible for "most" of the pickpocketing and similar crimes that the NYPD encounters.
Meanwhile in the courts, "there are days we have so many migrant cases, we have to call in for extra Spanish interpreters," said one law enforcement officer at the Queens Criminal Courthouse. Another told The Post: "Come on Mondays! Almost every case is a migrant."
Some of the crimes migrants are being arrested for include gang violence or vicious sexual assaults.
Venezuelan migrant Yurlex Daniel Guzman Quintero was arraigned in Queens Criminal Court on Aug. 28, accused of a deplorable act of sexual abuse against his girlfriend in which he viciously choked her and held a knife to her head. Court documents allege it all happened in front of her child.
The same day, migrant Dionisio Moran Flores was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court for allegedly raping his 5-year-old daughter. He was ordered held on $150,000 bail. -NY Post
The Post also notes that Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua, which has been terrorizing citizens around the country, has also set up shop in NYC and are already tied to hundreds of crimes - including the shootings of two NYPC officers who were trying to arrest a member in June. The gang has been arming up - smuggling guns into city-run shelters in food delivery bags in an effort to evade metal detectors.
"Most of the people we arrest are professionals — these aren’t their first crimes," said one law enforcement source, who added that Biden-Harris open border policies combined with sanctuary city laws are responsible for the current situation.
"Crime would be down significantly if there was a wall and we could account for everyone who comes into the country," the source told The Post. "And more importantly, throw them out if they commit a crime."
[Breitbart] A Haitian migrant is accused of molesting a 10-year-old boy in Mansfield, Massachusetts, after he was reportedly flown into the United States last year through President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’s parole pipeline.
Akim Marc Desire, an 18-year-old Haitian national, was arrested late last month by the Mansfield Police Department and charged with indecent assault and battery on a child under 14.
According to a report from Fox News, Desire allegedly molested a 10-year-old boy who lived next door to him in the area. A day after his arrest, Desire was arraigned in Attleboro, Massachusetts, District Court on the child sex crime charges.
Desire was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents following the arraignment and he remains in federal custody.
Desire, Fox News reports, was flown into the U.S. in June 2023 through Biden and Harris’s controversial CHNV program — the parole process created by the administration that has successfully brought hundreds of thousands of Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans to the U.S.
Last month, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas temporarily shut down the CHNV program over reports of widespread fraud and abuse. Just weeks later, though, DHS restarted the program.
[Epoch Times] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Aug. 29 issued a new rule that mandates checking identification for all people aged under 30 who are trying to buy tobacco products like cigarettes.
The verification was previously in place but was applied to people 26 years of age or younger.
"Today’s rule is another key step toward protecting our nation’s youth from the health risks of tobacco products," Brian King, director of the FDA’s Center for Tobacco Products, said in a statement.

THAT's racists! Don't they know that minority community members have problems with having IDs. We have multiple court filings saying so. [nearly every state has tobacco and alcohol ID requirements - feds need to sod off]
[JustTheNews] Los Angeles County has approximately 75,312 homeless individuals as of the most recent July annual homelessness report.
A judge in Los Angeles County ordered the county to rapidly produce court-ordered homelessness program audit data, saying, “If there isn’t documentation of work being done, it’s not being done.”
Judge David O. Carter is overseeing a settlement from two years ago between the LA Alliance for Human Rights and both Los Angeles County and the City of Los Angeles. The City of Los Angeles’ separate settlement requires the city to bring shelter online in each city council district for some 60% of the city’s unsheltered homeless based on the 2020 homelessness count; once each district reaches that threshold, it can begin enforcing anti-camping ordinances.
Los Angeles County has approximately 75,312 homeless individuals as of the most recent July annual homelessness report.
LA County’s side of the settlement includes an agreement to provide a wide variety of homelessness services such as “intensive care management, mental health and substance use services” and even “job training … family reunification, education, childcare,” said L.A. County Supervisor Holly Mitchell at a press conference at the time of the settlement, according to LAist.
L.A. County also said it would provide 3,000 mental health treatment beds. According to the California Health and Human Services Agency, 21% of homeless individuals in California have a “serious mental illness.”
Carter ordered an audit of the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority be completed by November or October.
"An audit like this is a tool that helps us try and figure this out, but at the end of the day we need more beds. We need more services. If the city and county don't know where the documentation is that shows beds and services are being provided, we've got a massive problem,” LA Alliance for Human Rights attorney Matthew Umhofer told ABC.
Umhofer also noted Carter could impose sanctions on the government, and even appoint a receiver to take over services.
“He can impose sanctions on the city and county and at some point, if the city and the county aren't complying with our agreements, the judge can appoint a receiver," Umhofer continued.
Last month, California Gov. Gavin Newsom slammed Los Angeles County for its homelessness response, warning that the over $3 billion he’s provided to the county could come to an end if there aren’t results soon.
“$144 million has been provided through the Encampment Resolution Grants in LA County Broadly … this in addition to $3.1 billion in other resources … in just the last few years coming from the State of California [in Los Angeles],” said Newsom. “Do your job. There’s no more excuses. You got the money … you got the support from the state … If we don’t see demonstrable results I’ll start to redirect money … that will start in January.”
A state audit from earlier this year found the state’s $24 billion in homelessness spending between 2018 and through the 2022-2023 fiscal year, or approximately since Newsom took office, was often not tracked and evaluated.
[JustTheNews] At a Bexar County Commissioners Court meeting on Tuesday, commissioners voted 3-1 to approve a plan to spend $392,000 to hire a company to print and distribute voter registration forms to unregistered county residents.
After Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton warned Bexar County officials not to potentially engage in election fraud, they went forward with their voter registration plan utilizing what some called a far-left group and Paxton sued.
At a Bexar County Commissioners Court meeting on Tuesday, commissioners voted 3-1 to approve a plan to spend $392,000 to hire a company to print and distribute voter registration forms to unregistered county residents.
Paxton sent a letter to county officials Monday night warning them not to take the action or his office would sue. “It is unlawful and reckless for counties to use taxpayer dollars to indiscriminately send voter registration forms with no consideration of the recipients’ eligibility and without any statutory authority to do so,” he said.
Paxton’s lawsuit names the county judge, four commissioners and the election’s administrator as defendants. It asks the court to halt the plan from going into effect and seeks emergency injunctive relief.
Distributing voter registration forms to unverified recipients “could induce ineligible people – such as felons and noncitizens – to commit a crime by attempting to register to vote,” he warned, also saying that doing so violates state law. “Texas counties have no statutory authority to print and mail state voter registration forms, making the proposal fundamentally illegal.”
He said their plan “is illegal, and if you move forward with this proposal, I will use all available legal means to stop you.”
They moved forward with it, even after numerous residents expressed alarm and publicly opposed it. They also moved forward with it after Bexar County Election Administrator Jacquelyn Callanen said there were already 900 organizations in the county registering people to vote more than once, with numerous duplicates.
So many residents were being registered to vote that her office had to hire temporary workers to process the increased volume. They still have a 3,000 to 4,000 backlog of registration cards to process, she said. The cards keep coming in.
She also expressed alarm about pre-filled voter registration forms being sent to residents. One brought her a form with her sister’s name on it. “Her sister passed away ten years ago. This woman came in and literally threw this at us,” Callanen said, adding that constituents are “very angry.”
She also explained that her office processes the information on the card they receive and send it to the SOS, which then verifies the data. This includes checking Social Security numbers, driver’s licenses, citizenship and other information. Once the SOS confirms a voter’s registration, it sends back a unique voter ID number to her office.
“Every day we get back information on voter registration,” she said. “There’s a deceased person registered to vote, birthday doesn’t match, TEL doesn’t match, SSN doesn’t match, it’s a noncitizen. We get back a list of names … and we cancel them if we have to.
“What we’re seeing are tons of duplicates coming in,” she said, referring to numerous organizations registering the same person to vote more than once.
“As of today, we have 1,270,000 registered voters in Bexar County,” she said. She also expressed concerns about the county’s responsibility to “protect the voter.”
Resident after resident spoke against the plan. One, Melinda Roberts, told the court, “you are hiring a far-left organization to register Democrats to vote,” noting that the owner of the company “runs partisan organizations and his targeted eligible voters are Democrats. His companies are tech based, and he's on the record stating their political. They are progressive political entities. His companies and connections all lead to partisan politics.”
Paxton’s lawsuit names the county judge, four commissioners and the election’s administrator as defendants. It asks the court to halt the plan from going into effect and seeks emergency injunctive relief “to prevent them from giving a partisan organization, and violation of state and local procurement procedures, hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to mail unsolicited voter registration applications to an untold number of Bexar County residents, regardless of whether those residents requested such an application or are even eligible to vote.
“Defendant’s actions will create confusion, facilitate fraud, undermine confidence in elections, and are illegal ultra virus acts because they exceed statutory authority.”
“Despite being warned against adopting this blatantly illegal program,” Paxton said, “Bexar County has irresponsibly chosen to violate the law,” adding that he plans to stop them.

Kamala says she believes in freedom, but I was put on a secret terror watch list after I publicly criticized her. No one will be safe from political retaliation under a Harris administration. I put my life on the line for this country. Now the government calls me a terror threat.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A bombshell congressional report claims would-be Trump assassin Thomas Crooks
…also in our archives as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, the introverted, gun-loving gamer, possibly bipolar, schizophrenic, or with the extraverted version of depression that leads to mass murder. It remains to be seen whether he will turn out to be Antifa, but reportedly he was very interested in assassinating a presidential candidate of either party. He got himself killed trying to assassinate President Trump at an outdoor campaign rally in rural Pennsylvania, only a few yards outside the line bounding the area the grossly undertrained Secret Service team considered its responsibility…
was incapacitated by a local cop before he was killed by a Secret Service sniper.
Two months after Crooks shot the former president's ear at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, a preliminary report from Rep. Clay Higgins offered a differing narrative to the official one pushed by the FBI.
While it was initially claimed that Crooks was shot in the head within seconds by a Secret Service sniper, Higgins' report claimed it was actually a local SWAT operator who stopped the gunman's hail of bullets.
The congressman said the local cop's shot 'hit Crooks' rifle and fragged his face/ neck/ right shoulder area from the (gun) stock breaking up', which meant Crooks was unable to keep firing before he was killed.
It comes amid mounting scrutiny on the FBI and Secret Service's investigations into the shooting, weeks after Higgins also revealed Crooks' body was mysteriously cremated with approval from the FBI after just 10 days.
Newly released images of Crooks' AR-style rifle show the stock end of the firearm with a large hole where the bullet purportedly struck near the shooter's shoulder.
According to Higgins' report, the rally could have been worse had it not been for the actions of local officers.
After Crooks fired eight bullets at the crowd, striking Trump's ear and hitting three rally attendees, one fatally, officers were scrambling to locate the source of the bullets and fire back.
Higgins said the SWAT operator - who he described as a 'total badass' in his report - fired at Crooks from the ground around 100 yards from the AGR building where he had been perched.
'When he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat,' Higgins wrote.
The congressman noted that the officer ran into Crooks' possible line of fire and took a 'very hard shot' that struck the end of Crooks' rifle and destroyed the gun's functionality.
'This means that if his AR buffer tube was damaged, Crooks’ rifle wouldn’t fire after his 8th shot,' Higgins wrote.
Seconds later, a Secret Service sniper killed Crooks on the rooftop perch, which 'entered somewhere around the left mouth area and exited the right ear area.'
'Yes, we'll get the reports and pictures, but I will not ever be able to say with certainty that those reports and pictures are accurate according to my own examination of the body.
'Again, similar to releasing the crime scene and scrubbing crime scene biological evidence... this action by the FBI can only be described by any reasonable man as an obstruction to any following investigative effort.'
Higgins states that on July 23, the day that Crooks was cremated, both the Homeland Security Committee and the Oversight Committee had opened investigations into the assassination attempt, while Speaker Mike Johnson had stated he was forming a congressional investigative body.
'Why, then, by what measure, would the FBI release his body to the family for cremation? This pattern of investigative scorched earth by the FBI is quite troubling,' Higgins writes.
His 'preliminary investigate report' was submitted to Task Force Chairman Mike Kelly (R-PA) on August 12 and released to the public on Higgins' website on August 15.
On July 29, the Louisiana congressman was named as one of seven Republican members of a bipartisan group tasked with investigating the attempted assassination of Trump.
The task force consists of 13 members - seven Republicans and six Democrats. Its mission is to determine what went wrong on the day of the attempted assassination and it will make recommendations to prevent future security lapses.
The task force will issue a final report before December 13.

Not really as interested in a dept. agency territorial squabble drama story on who shot 1st. As, wanting to know who paid for and streamlined the Trump Assassination attempt process?
How about telling us how much offshore Money Cooks had, and whom in the DC Swamp and/or what Elite Money controlled and funded it?
Even the older games like World of Warcraft can offer chat and message drops. The newer ones can do custom environments, structures, and weapons, especially with mods.
#8
The big, unanswered question is why the USSS didn't usher Trump off the stage immediately when there was serious doubt about the safety of the location.
IIRC there are reports that they knew about the presence of a suspicious armed individual minutes before the shooting, perhaps even before Trump took the stage.

I brough this up during Uvalde. I'm confident the selection, conditioning and potentiation occurs in P2P game play and chat rooms in specific games. imagine teens who grow up playing hours every night. that's serious time and access. I drive by a bldg weekly where sits a jtf that works in conjunction with tech giants using gaming platforms to hunt various types of criminals. It can be used the opposite way. If someone just researched the top game these guys are playing, i'll bet they get a hit on a particular one and there would be a lot of breadcrumbs to follow
[Bongino] The Russian collusion narrative took another hit this week as Russian President Vladimir Putin made his endorsement in the U.S. 2024 presidential election - for Kamala Harris.
When asked how he feels about the November election, Putin said that alleged President Joe Biden had recommended his supporters to back Harris; "Firstly, Biden recommended all his supporters support Mrs Harris. We will do the same, we will support her too.”
The reasoning, obviously, is that Harris would be weaker on Russia than Trump, which Putin himself essentially said in explaining his endorsement.
"She laughs so expressively and infectiously that it means that everything is fine with her," said Putin, smiling wryly.
He elaborated that a Harris administration was likely to refrain from additional sanctions on Russia, noting that Trump had introduced more sanctions against Russia than anyone in the White House before him.
#1
The rule for Putin is the same for any politician: Watch what they do, not what they say.
Having said that, it could be Putin doesn't want the kind of a deal Trump might broker. Putin would prefer Harris who would keep the war in Ukraine going until he hangs Zelensky by the neck.

[JustTheNews] The eight states with these constitutional amendments on the ballot in November are Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Wisconsin.
The nonprofit Americans for Citizen Voting (ACV) launched a campaign on Wednesday to pass constitutional amendments in eight states this November to prevent non-citizens from voting in those states' elections.
The eight states with these constitutional amendments on the ballot in November are Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Wisconsin.
While it is illegal for non-citizens to vote in U.S. elections, 17 cities across California, Illinois, Maryland, Vermont, and Washington, D.C., allow non-citizens to vote in municipal elections. New York City's law allowing non-citizens to vote is currently subject to a court block. If the city's law takes effect, then 800,000 non-citizens would be eligible to vote in municipal elections.
“Despite what you’ve seen in the news, non-citizen voting is happening right now, legally, in cities across the country,” ACV President Avi McCullah said in a statement. “This November the voters of eight states will get their chance to address the issue. I believe they will pass the Citizen Only Voting Amendment and send a powerful message nationwide.
“I am a naturalized citizen,” McCullah added. “I was born in Brazil and went through the process to become a citizen of the United States. Does our immigration system have problems? Of course, but diluting the citizenship I worked very hard for is not the solution.”
“Federal law requires that voters in federal elections be citizens of the United States. That isn’t the case for state and local elections,” Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said. “The only way to stop activist city councils, county boards, and state legislatures from legalizing foreign citizen voting is to pass a Citizen Only Voting Amendment.”
[Breitbart] CNN host Erin Burnett said Wednesday on her show “OutFront” that their reporting found 50 times Vice President Kamala Harris criticized former President Donald Trump’s border wall but then featured a section of that exact area of the wall on a campaign ad.
Burnett said, “The K File team scoured Kamala Harris’ tweets and statements going all the way back to 2017, and what they found was more than 50 instances of Harris slamming Trump’s border wall, but now new Harris campaign ads actually showcase that very wall.”
She continued, “K File’s Andrew Kaczynski joins me now. So Andrew, I mean, you and you all have gone through and scoured an incredible amount of material. Tell me more about what you found.”
Kaczynski said, “Yeah, that’s right. We found more than 50 of those those tweets criticizing the border while before she used that in her ad.”
He added, “What’s I think what’s also really remarkable. This is like, I mean, you heard her talking about it there, though, Trump’s wall in his campaign during his presidency, there was really no greater symbol of Trump’s presidency than the wall in the way that Democrats were attacking him over the wall and his restrictive immigration policies. So we looked in that ad and if you look at it, that exact area of wall is in Sasabe, Arizona and that is a portion of wall that was actually built by Donald Trump.”
[Red State] You know who
When Liz Cheney attacked former President Donald Trump, she tried to say that she was a conservative in so doing.
The people in Wyoming didn't believe her and they roundly turned her out of office by almost 40 points. It's sort of hilarious that the media and the left think she's some kind of arbiter of what any Republicans think when she's that rejected and most Republicans can't stand her.
On Wednesday, Cheney proved just how false that claim about being conservative was when she endorsed Kamala Harris during a speaking engagement at Duke University in the battleground state of North Carolina.
#5
Just trying to justify being the next head of her father's neocon branch position. I think when the democrats want a war, they like having people like Big Lizzy to roll out in front of the camera to take heat and 'rally the republicans'; in exchange they get premium grift margins on the weapon sales.
#8
Both Liz Cheney supporters are now aware of her position so the press release served its purpose. She probably could have achieved the same result with an email.

Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
