Why we shouldn’t be timid about bringing up abortion | TheBlaze.com
Why we shouldn’t be timid about bringing up abortion | TheBlaze.com:
"It’s usually right about there where we tend to stuff that pro-life talk track back down our throats, or don’t even consider bringing it up. After all, that’s a lost cause, right? Roe v. Wade, social consensus, political popularity—there’s no winning this debate. So what’s the point?
But here’s the thing: while being “pro-life” is a religious tenant, unborn life is also a scientific fact. And if it’s a life, then it’s protected by our Constitution. Period."

Total Frat Move | The 5 Best Weapons For Clown Defense
Total Frat Move | The 5 Best Weapons For Clown Defense:
"Militant clowns are sweeping the nation at an alarming rate.
What first appeared to be a huge, terrifying prank has turned into something much darker.
The creatures that haunt our nightmares have been popping up on campuses across the nation, and we’re no longer standing for it.
Earlier this week, fraternity men at TCU decided to brandish their irons and go out to find these menaces.
Penn State and Oregon State have also gone hunting for these creatures in pancake makeup.
While a golf club is a highly effective means of personal defense (shout out Tommy Vercetti), it’s not the only one.
Here are some items you might have sprinkled around your residence in case of a clown emergency.
1. Hatchets, Mauls, or Tomahawks...
2. Molotov Cocktails...
3. Pledge Paddles...
4. Loose Stand Your Ground Laws...
5. Insane Clown Posse Music...
...Happy hunting, gentlemen.
Let’s show these painted freaks that fear never triumphs when pitted against a red-blooded American’s fighting spirit.
Next time one of these assholes is spotted, show them who’s boss.
Being a clown is a choice. Getting murked for it just comes with the territory.."

BROADDRICK: Hillary's actions speak louder than Trump's words
BROADDRICK: Hillary's actions speak louder than Trump's words - The American MirrorThe American Mirror:
"Bill Clinton rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick is weighing in on Donald Trump’s controversial comments from 2005 that are mysteriously resurfacing just hours before the second debate and weeks before the general election.
"Bill Clinton rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick is weighing in on Donald Trump’s controversial comments from 2005 that are mysteriously resurfacing just hours before the second debate and weeks before the general election.
“How many times must it be said,” she tweeted Saturday morning.
“Actions speak louder than words. (Donald Trump) said bad things! (Hillary Clinton) threatened me after (Bill Clinton) raped me.”
How many times must it be said? Actions speak louder than words. DT said bad things!HRC threatened me after BC raped me.
Broaddrick’s dose of perspective comes as the mainstream media has been silent and uninterested in the ongoing accusations against Bill Clinton and Hillary’s attempts to silence his accusers.
But in the last 24 hours, they’ve reported ad nauseam about Trump’s 2005 locker room talk caught on a hot mic.
Last Friday night, Trump apologized for his banter with “Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush from a decade ago.
“I said it. I was wrong and I apologize,” Trump says in his statement.
To date, neither Bill nor Hillary Clinton have apologized to Broaddrick.
She has accused then-Arkansas Attorney General Bill Clinton of raping her in a Little Rock hotel room in 1978. She says Hillary later confronted her in an attempt to intimidate and silence her.
UPDATE: Paula Jones weighed in as well, writing on Facebook, “I don’t recall that Bill or Hillary has ever apologized to me and Juanita Broaddrick or Kathleen Willey yet Bill was getting his wee wee sucked under the Oval Office desk and still won a second term, UNBELIEVABLE!
Broaddrick commented, “You go girl.”

State Policies Created School Pension Pain
State Policies Created School Pension Pain [Michigan Capitol Confidential]
"Pension costs are forcing tough choices on Michigan’s school districts.
Their problems are caused almost entirely by state policies, so the solution must come from the state.
In Michigan, school districts have little to say about the retirement benefits offered to their employees; all the key decisions are set by state policy.
The state requires districts to use its retirement system, sets its benefits, and decides what the funding assumptions and policies will be.
To pay for pension benefits, the state assesses districts a percentage of their payroll.
...If the state weren’t making these payments, it could use that same amount of money to increase the foundation allowance by $727 per pupil.
Conversely, if the state didn’t make those payments, districts would have to dip further into their foundation allowance to meet pension commitments.
Public attention often focuses on the size of the foundation allowance.
But public school districts would rather see extra money from the state go to cover pension costs than increase the foundation allowance, an unrestricted grant.
The reason is that charter schools do not participate in the public school pension system and therefore do not receive the state pension assistance; they would, however, receive their share of an increased foundation allowance, and districts would receive less..."

Hillary "Shocked!" By Trump's Sex Talk... But Here's Video of Hillary Threatening Sex Assault Victims in 1998:

The Clinton campaign (Washington Post) released audio on Friday of Donald Trump talking about hitting on a hot woman in 2005.
Hillary Clinton tweeted out that she was “shocked!” in response to the audio!
This is horrific. We cannot allow this man to become president. https://t.co/RwhW7yeFI2— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) October 7, 2016
Really, Hillary?
This is the same woman who threatened Bill Clinton’s accusers in 1998.
It is commonly believed by Clinton victims that Hillary was behind the siccing of private investigators on the many women who accused her husband of rape, sexual assault or infidelity in the 1990s.
Hillary Clinton revealed her hidden hand when she menacingly issued a clear warning of intimidation to her husband’s accusers (and those who would pursue their charges) on the nationally broadcast Today Show in early 1998 in the days after the Monica Lewinsky scandal broke.
The Today Show interview with Matt Lauer on January 27, 1998 is famous for Hillary’s claim that a “vast right-wing conspiracy” was behind the allegations of an affair between her husband President Clinton and White House intern Monica Lewinsky. (Transcript source.)
“This is—the great story here for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it is this vast right-wing conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president. A few journalists have kind of caught on to it and explained it. But it has not yet been fully revealed to the American public. And actually, you know, in a bizarre sort of way, this may do it.”
Later in the interview, Hillary bluntly issued her threat:
“I think we’re going to find some other things. And I think that when all of this is put into context, and we really look at the people involved here, look at their motivations and look at their backgrounds, look at their past behavior, some folks are going to have a lot to answer for.”

Hillary Clinton's hired thugs quieted Bill Clinton's mistresses
Hillary Clinton's hired thugs quieted Bill Clinton's mistresses - Washington Times:
"Through the years one of my favorite sallies against the Clintons has been to refer to Hillary Clinton as “Bruno.”
At times readers have asked, “Why do you call her Bruno?”
It is because there has always been an atmosphere of thuggishness about her.
Another way of putting it is that time and again she acts as though the rule of law does not pertain to her.
For instance, on the matter of the many women who have willingly or unwillingly been pulled into her husband’s lubricious ambit.
How many times have you read or heard a quote attributed to her where she vows to “crush” a woman whom Bill rutted with or to “crucify” her.
One even reads such quotes in the mainstream media (MSM).
Yet she is portrayed as a champion of women.
...Now, of course, today the matronly Hillary is long past her prime as a plausible Bruno.
As she breaks out in coughing spells, and has to be propped up at the lectern in her heavily cushioned pantsuits, it is easy for us to have forgotten the intimidating specter she struck for such woman as Gennifer Flowers, Kathleen Willey, the young Monica or even Juanita Broaddrick, who allegedly was raped by smiling Bill.
Yet in decades past she was a highly volatile figure and, in fact, posed a threat to White House personnel.
There are all those witnesses who have reported seeing her bean her husband or members of the Secret Service with a book or a lamp.
I think even the loyal George Stephanopoulos reported her aggression.
As a matter of the public record, there is a catalogue of private investigators employed by her, and some of their exploits are even recorded.
In fact, if elected, she will be the first presidential candidate ever to have hired private investigators to serve her ends en route to the White House.
In the past weeks, both The New York Times and The Washington Post reported that she employed the services of a San Francisco private investigator, Jack Palladino, to harass and vilify Gennifer Flowers when she appeared on the scene in the early 1990s.
But there were others.
...In the early 1980s in Arkansas, Hillary hired Ivan Duda to collect the names of Bill’s women, not to prepare for a divorce as some thought.
Rather it was to prepare, as Mr. Duda told me, “for any charges that might come up” regarding scandal in Bill’s forthcoming election campaign.
Then there is the Los Angeles investigator, Anthony Pellicano, who helped the Clintons in their efforts at intimidation in the 1992 election and was tapped again to quiet down Monica in 1998. Hillary is particularly skittish about Anthony because he is spending time in the big house for possession of military-grade plastic explosives and hand grenades.
....Yet why did she bring forward at her debate with Donald Trump the name of Alicia Machado, and why was her campaign so eager that Alicia be booked all over television ever since?
Possibly, Donald did make an unseemly reference to her weight 20 years ago when she was in his Miss Universe contest.
Or possibly, that was his job.
But since then, Alicia has been engaged in criminal behavior, soft porn and possibly hard porn.
Now she is a spokeswoman for Hillary.
I guess having a porn queen representing Hillary’s campaign is just one more sign of the Clintons’ debasement of America.
Apparently, the MSM does not mind being part of this debasement."

WHAT? White Woman Who Pretends To Be Black Will Be Guest at Event to Honor MLK – American Lookout:

Cary’s MLK celebration to include former NAACP leader Dolezal
"Organizers want the town’s annual MLK Dreamfest Celebration in January to highlight Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s values through discussions on race relations and racial identity.
They hope nationally known speakers like former NAACP leader Rachel Dolezal of Washington state will facilitate the dialogue..."
Dolezal, who was born to white parents, drew national attention last year after resigning as president of the NAACP chapter in Spokane, Wash., following allegations that she lied about her racial identity.
“We chose a person like Rachel Dolezal that has been depicted as a major villain through media because of her preference of racial identity,” said Al Cohen, CEO of Jireh Management Group.
“And yet, she didn’t steal from anybody. She didn’t murder anybody. She didn’t rob anybody. She only had an affinity for a group of people, and she served her community well.”
In the bizarre world the left has created, everyone can be anything they want by simply saying so.
Men can say they identify as women, white people can say they identify as black, etc.
What happens when a white student applies for a college scholarship designated for black students?
Will there be any problem or will it be OK as long as they identify as black?"

Klein said this palace intrigue was “very interesting because you know there was a blood feud between the Obamas and the Clintons … but after Barack Obama was unsuccessful in getting Joe Biden or Elizabeth Warren, the looney-tunes senator from Massachusetts, to run for president – and he tried very hard to get one or the other – he was stuck with Hillary Clinton.”"

"Donald Trump’s haters always end up being complete hypocrites.
Take, for instance, this Hispanic activist who was oh-so offended when Trump said that Mexico was sending criminals and rapists across the US Southern Border, along with drugs and illegal guns.
Now, the tables have turned. Fox13 reports:
Well-known Hispanic activist Tony Yapias was charged with rape after he allegedly assaulted a woman who ended their four-year relationship a few months ago.
Yapias, 50, known as Adolfo Tony Yapias-Delgado, was formerly charged in the 3rd District Monday with rape, a first-degree felony and evidence tampering, a class A misdemeanor.
Yapias is the director of Proyecto Latino de Utah.
The Davis County Attorney’s Office is handling the case.
According to court documents Yapias went to the woman’s home in South Salt Lake on March 21.
Wow. So it looks like Trump, once again, was 100 percent correct.

"The foundation also hired Huma Abedin as a consultant. Under an agreement that Clinton approved, she was able to supplement a low-wage (we kid) $135,000 State Department job with consulting fees from the foundation, among other sources.
So this is just one example of where Clinton Foundation donors' money went. And in the midst of the current campaign to make Clinton president, it seems quite relevant."

Major Election Fraud Alert – Is This How They Are Going To Steal The Election From Donald Trump?
Major Election Fraud Alert – Is This How They Are Going To Steal The Election From Donald Trump?:
"Every ounce of effort that ordinary Americans have put into getting Donald Trump elected could be completely wasted if we allow them to steal the election. If you have confidence in the integrity of our elections, that confidence will be shaken by the time you are done reading this article, because I am about to share some information with you that is absolutely astounding. Yesterday, I showed you that dead people are being registered to vote right now and that they have been voting in elections across the country for years. I also showed you that illegal immigrants have been voting in important swing states such as Virginia and Pennsylvania. But all of that pales in comparison to the evidence of systematic election fraud that we witnessed on election day in 2012.
Because Mitt Romney threw in the towel very early on election night in 2012, very little scrutiny was given to the actual voting results.
But if Romney had been willing to fight, there was actually quite a bit of evidence that the election was potentially stolen from him.
According to the Election Protection Coalition, voters all across America reported over 70,000 voting problems by five o’clock Eastern time on election day in 2012. In many instances, voters that were attempting to vote for Mitt Romney were having their votes switched to Barack Obama by the voting machines. We are going to look at some examples of this phenomenon below.
In particular, we want to focus on the swing states, because that is where most of the voting irregularities seem to have popped up. If you are going to steal an election, you don’t really care too much about the really “red states” or the really “blue states”. Rather, the key would be to shift enough votes in the tightly contested swing states to ensure a victory for your candidate. And so let’s take a look at what happened in some of the most important swing states during the last election.
Ohio
During election night in 2012, the pundits breathlessly proclaimed that it was all going to come down to Ohio. They told us that if Mitt Romney was going to have any chance of winning the election that he had to win Ohio, and so that was the state to watch more than any other.
One of the counties where Barack Obama really needed to run up votes was in Cuyahoga County. But Barack Obama didn’t just solidly win in Cuyahoga County. In fact, there were 16 precincts were Mitt Romney did not receive a single vote.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Earlier today I went to the official Cuyahoga County website, and the results from the last election are still up. The following are the vote totals for Barack Obama and Mitt Romney in the precincts where Mitt Romney did not get any votes…
0154 CLEVELAND -02-Q: 542 – 0
0192 CLEVELAND -04-L: 388 – 0
0204 CLEVELAND -05-E: 597 – 0
0205 CLEVELAND -05-F: 483 – 0
0206 CLEVELAND -05-G: 257 – 0
0219 CLEVELAND -05-T: 386 – 0
0228 CLEVELAND -06-H: 405 – 0
0232 CLEVELAND -06-L: 70 – 0
0233 CLEVELAND -06-M: 419 – 0
0241 CLEVELAND -06-U: 118 – 0
0248 CLEVELAND -07-F: 361 – 0
0273 CLEVELAND -08-J: 472 – 0
0280 CLEVELAND -08-Q: 49 – 0
0285 CLEVELAND -09-B: 414 – 0
0288 CLEVELAND -09-E: 478 – 0
