Here’s What We Know About The Slaughter Of An American Family In Mexico

The Federalist  "Early Monday morning, three mothers traveling with 14 children between them were ambushed and gunned down in Mexico by drug cartel members near the United States Arizona border. Here’s what we know so far:

1. One car was shot until it exploded and caught on fire.

Rhonita Miller and four of her seven children were shot in their car, which then exploded and caught on fire. Their remains were burned to ashes except for a few bones, enough to identity all five of them were in the vehicle.

"State authorities said more than 200 bullet casings were found near the vehicles.

2. Mother Christina Langford Johnson jumped out of her car to plead with cartel.

Christina Langford Johnson, 31, allegedly jumped out of her vehicle as the attackers shot from the road ahead, waving her arms in an attempt to let the cartel know it was innocent women and children in the vehicles.

“They shot her anyway,” said Lenzo Widmar, a cousin of the victims. “They knew it was women and children.”

3. A 13-year-old boy survivor walked six hours for help.

"Devin Langford, the second oldest of the the nine Langford children who were traveling with their mother, Dawna Ray Langford, hid his surviving siblings under branches in nearby bushes before leaving to find help. Devin walked 14 miles back to La Mora, where he arrived at 5:30 p.m. delivering news of the deadly attack.

"The oldest Langford sibling, 14-year-old Kylie Evelyn Langford, was shot in the foot and stayed with the younger siblings. When Devin didn’t return quickly, Kylie sent 9-year-old Mckenzie Rayne Langford to search for help. After two hours of looking, a search party composed of family members and Mexican officials found Kylie late Monday evening" . . .

Adam Schiff', the darling of talk show hosts and his inquisition

Schiff Tries, Fails To Beat Trump At Transparency Game By Releasing His Own Transcripts   "House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) surely must have felt that releasing transcripts to some of the testimony in the increasingly baffling impeachment inquiry was a brilliant chess move.
"But the congressman should hold off popping the champagne because the testimony isn’t quite as damning as very likely hoped.
"Take, for example, the testimony of William Taylor, the charge d’affairs of the U.S. Embassy in Kyiv, Ukraine, who was supposed to be a key witness to the alleged quid pro quo in which Trump supposedly withheld military aide to Ukraine in exchange for an investigation into the Bidens’ dealings within the country.
"Turns out Taylor not only never had firsthand knowledge of any quid pro quo (nor second nor even third), but he admitted that the timeline suggests a quid pro quo almost certainly never happened." 
"Taylor, according to the transcript, began by admitting he had no personal communication with Rudy Giuliani, Mick Mulvaney, nor President Trump himself." . . .  . . .

"GOP Congresswoman Scares Hell Out Of Schiff, Exposes His ‘Coordinated’ Coup"  . . . "Rep. Stefanik is brilliantly alluding to a coordinated effort behind the scenes where this entire plot was pre-planned by Schiff and his cohorts. The so-called whistleblower was chosen to come forward.

“ 'Adam Schiff has conducted himself as counsel to the witnesses, and as judge and jury,” Stefanik said. “The American people deserve transparency. These should have been open bipartisan hearings from the start.' ” . . .

Adam Schiff Calls His First Public Witnesses And It Tells Us Everything  . . . "The answer is that they didn’t give Schiff what he wanted. Sondland revised his testimony this week to say he felt a quid pro quo (but not even necessarily an improper one) was “likely,” but also admitted it was pure presumption on his part. He testified he was given no order regarding the matter and had no idea why the aid was actually on hold." . . .

Yet Another Poll On Impeachment Inquiry Raises Serious Red Flags About Schiff’s Show Trial Charade  . . . "This news comes on top of a poll released last week that showed 52% of the American people do no believe Trump’s call was an impeachable offense.
"As I wrote at the time, this is a nightmare scenario for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Intel Chair Schiff, who in spite of saying they’d be willing to lose the House over this issue have very deep concerns about how this will play out among vulnerable House Democrats in the months to come (which is one reason why Pelosi initially balked at the idea of impeachment and largely stayed out of the original faux inquiry for months)." . . .

Testimony Transcript Shows William Taylor Never Talked To Trump, Wasn’t Even On July 25 Phone Call   "A top anti-Trump witness for House Democrats admitted he wasn't on the July 25 phone call and had never even spoken with Trump about Ukraine military aid."

California Dems Show Us the Future. Run For Your Lives.

We're horrified by people who commit violence with firearms. They're horrified by people who haven't committed any violence and never will -- but who engage in speech displeasing to Democrats.

Ann Coulter   "In this column, I will prove that Democrats: 1) Don't care about "Russians," (Ukrainians?) or anyone else interfering with our democracy; and 2) they also don't give a crap about guns.
"Let's begin by looking at the Democrats' Platonic ideal of a democracy: California!
California is wholly controlled by the Democratic Party. The governor is a Democrat. The lieutenant governor is a Democrat. The attorney general, secretary of state and treasurer are Democrats. All these positions have been held by Democrats since the governorship of Arnold Schwarzenegger (who was a Democrat). The state Senate is just under two-thirds Democratic, while the assembly is more than two-thirds Democratic. Both U.S. senators are Democrats, as are 46 of 53 members of Congress.
"And what a paradise they've created! For the last several years, with a direct pipeline to the fifth-largest treasury on the planet, California has been waging war on decent people in favor of drug addicts, the mentally ill, criminals, the homeless and transgenders.
"Big political movements used to begin in California. Proposition 13's cap on property taxes led to President Ronald Reagan and a nationwide tax revolt. Proposition 209's ban on affirmative action was followed by Supreme Court rulings restricting the government's ability to discriminate on the basis of race. California's anti-crime rebellion, including a massive prison expansion and the voters' removal of liberal lunatic Rose Bird from the state's highest court, foreshadowed an anti-crime pushback across the country.
"These days, the only California-originated idea to sweep the nation is: banning plastic straws. The state is a calamity. Its optimism and vigor are gone. Instead of "The Golden State," California is now "The Human Excrement State."
"Let's just pray that California is no longer a window into our future." . . .

Bernie loves Ilhan and Ilhan loves Bernie

Where, exactly, is the “Western imperialism” in Omar’s story? It is a Communist cliche going back generations, used most often by the people who enslaved Eastern Europe and starved millions of Ukrainians to death while establishing a communist economic system there.

. . . "The Star Tribune covered the rally in anodyne fashion, focusing mostly on the horse race between Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. It reported none of Omar’s incendiary remarks–her views, like her various frauds and possible crimes, apparently being in the category of things voters are better off not knowing.

"I don’t know Omar personally, but if I did, I would like to sound her out further on the subject of “Western imperialism.” How, exactly, do her own experiences coincide with her Marxist world-view? Omar comes from Somalia, which is one of the worst places on Earth, in part because Western powers have left it alone. Its disintegration into tribal warfare is entirely self-induced. Her family fled Somalia for fear of being killed by members of rival clans, and lived for years in a refugee camp in Kenya. Who supported them in Kenya? The Western democracies, in large part. U.N. aid to refugees in Kenya runs to more than $200 million annually. In 1992, Omar came to the United States as a refugee and became a U.S. citizen at age 17." . . .

Ilhan Omar only got around to marrying husband Ahmed Hirsi last year, but yesterday she she was legally divorced from him.  . . . "Under the decree the parties go their separate ways with respect to their financial assets. Omar is the breadwinner and she’s got the money, honey. Earlier this year Omar received a substantial cash advance — Forbes pegs it in a range from $100,00 to $250,000, but I’m told it was $300,000 — for a book someone is writing on her behalf. Hirsi is broke. I have to think that there is a side agreement paying off Hirsi to assure his continuing silence. As the Star Tribune notes, “An attorney for Hirsi said he has no comment.' ” . . .

ABC News' spiking of Epstein story draws scrutiny toward Clinton ally George Stephanopoulos

Fox News  "The bombshell claim that ABC News "quashed" a story on allegations against Jeffrey Epstein has drawn new scrutiny on the controversy's ties to its own star anchor, George Stephanopoulos.
"Project Veritas, whose controversial founder, James O'Keefe, has described himself as a "guerrilla journalist," published the footage that featured ABC News anchor Amy Robach claiming the Disney-owned network refused to air an interview she conducted with one of Epstein’s accusers and even suggesting she'd uncovered new information about Epstein's ties to former President Bill Clinton as his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, was running for president.
"I've had the story for three years... we would not put it on the air," Robach said on the hot mic. "It was unbelievable what we had, Clinton, we had everything." 
"Stephanopoulos, ABC News' chief anchor on "Good Morning America" and the Sunday program "This Week" who's overseen the network's political coverage, has had deep ties to the Clintons. Before he became the face of ABC News, he made a name for himself as a senior adviser to President Clinton back in the '90s. Ahead of the 2016 election, he pulled out of moderating debates after his $75,000 donation to the Clinton Foundation drew criticism."  . . .

Word that ABC News spiked a story on Jeffrey Epstein, left, shined a spotlight
on chief anchor George Stephanopoulos' ties to former President Clinton.

. . . "However, what's really raising eyebrows is a 2010 report of a party Stephanopoulos attended that Epstein had hosted. 
"Page Six reported that the convicted pedophile held an event in honor of Prince Andrew, who was one of the high-profile figures implicated in the scandal, in his New York City townhouse, and on the guestlist were several members of the media, including Stephanopoulos." . . .

Mexican cartel massacre: Suspect with 2 hostages, assault rifles, bulletproof SUV arrested in border town

Fox News  "A suspect was arrested near the Arizona border with Mexico in connection with the deaths of nine U.S. citizens - six children and three women – Monday who were living in a Mormon community about 70 miles south of Douglas, Ariz., investigators said early Wednesday.
"The victims’ convoy came under fire during the day in an ambush by gunmen believed to be affiliated with a drug cartel in Mexico." . . .

. . . "Officials have said that the gunmen may have mistaken the group's large SUVs for those of a rival gang amid a vicious turf war*
"Eight young children - including babies - survived the attack by hiding in the brush and even though they were wounded some walked miles to get help. Five badly wounded children were transported to hospitals in Arizona for treatment.
"A relative of 13-year-old Devin Blake Langford, who was uninjured in the attack, said he took charge of the group and ended up walking 14 miles for help." . . .


*Really? But what of this? One mother reportedly hid her baby inside her car before she got out with her arms raised and was killed by the cartel."

Big Daddy Baghdadi, a Hero to the Deep State, Is Dead at 48

The Shrug

Paul Dowling  " 'Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, austere religious scholar at the helm of Islamic State, dies at 48" —The Washington Post's second of three headlines announcing the death of a terrorist in terms befitting a hero, causing many to realize al-Baghdadi was a hero to the Deep State media complex." . . .

"Securing the ISIS Oil Fields

"Mark Esper, Trump's defense secretary, has said the securing of the ISIS oil fields is a top priority: "At the height of Baghdadi's reign, these oil fields provided ISIS with the bulk of financial resources used to fund its terror.  U.S. troops will remain positioned in this strategic area to deny ISIS access to those vital resources and we will respond with overwhelming military force against any group that threatens the safety of our forces there."  Loss of these oil funds, as a result of al-Baghdadi's death, potentially spells the doom of ISIS while, simultaneously, striking a disabling financial blow to the entire Deep State.

"Four-Dimensional Chess

"So, in taking out al-Baghdadi, has President Trump succeeded in beating the Deep State in a brilliant round of 4-D chess (where the human pieces are manipulated into moving themselves)?  While they were in the Middle East, were Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff maneuvered unawares into outing al-Baghdadi's position?  President Trump is not talking, but this much is known: Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, a hero to the Deep State, is dead at 48.

"Correction: Washington Post "austere religioius scholar" headline was not the first used by the newspaper, but the second."
