Financial Struggles of Rubio and Hastert

Bokbluster

"The NYT is on Marco Rubio’s case. The paper reported he’s had 4 traffic tickets in 17 years! Not only that, he used an $800,000 book advance to pay off $100,000 in student loans and buy an $80,000 fishing boat – or a “luxury speed boat”. All this packed into not one, but two stories. The second story appeared on Wednesday’s front page under the headline Rubio Career Bedeviled by Financial Struggles.

"The editors seem unaware that Rubio’s financial struggles are the same struggles bedeviling a lot of normal people. Jon Stewart is on The Times’ case.

"Meanwhile a picture directly above the Rubio story, in the print edition, features the financial struggles of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert. Hastert’s struggles aren’t so much like those of normal people. He’s accused of agreeing to pay $3.5 million in blackmail. Paying blackmail isn’t illegal, but using your own cash to do it is, if you withdraw over $10,000. Hastert tried to avoid that by taking out less than 10 grand more often. Apparently that’s illegal too." . . .

Marco Rubio vs. The New York Times

...Those little New York Times articles (hit pieces) about Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and his main squeeze, Jeanette Rubio, receiving 17 traffic infractions, as well as living a lavish, Miami Vice-style life in West Miami, Florida, continue to be clowned by other members of the media.
"The Rubios are far from wealthy. This I know because Rubio still owes me $2 for a valet tip I loaned him in 2010.

"The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart piled on Hillary Clinton’s press shop, better known as The New York Times, mocking them for trying to cast a bad light over the Rubios for paying off student loans, owning a offshore fishing boat, and getting those annoying traffic tickets."


 NBC Hypes Rubio ‘Under Fire’ for ‘Money Troubles’
 "On Wednesday, NBC’s Today seized on two New York Times hit pieces against Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio, as national correspondent Peter Alexander proclaimed: “He is one of the Republicans' fastest rising stars, just 44, the youngest presidential candidate in the field. But this morning, new scrutiny is focused on Florida Senator Marco Rubio's financial struggles and spending habits.”

"The headline on screen throughout the two-and-half-minute report declared: “Rubio Fights Back Over Finances; Candidate’s Money Troubles Under Fire in New Report' ”

Where Were the Parents of the McKinney Pool Party Troublemakers?

 Here’s what you really need to know about this “party."

PJ Media   "So now the race debate has moved to McKinney, Texas, a bedroom community of Dallas, with an out-of-control party invading a quiet family-oriented community. The story is encapsulated and reduced by the all-seeing media to a ten-second clip of a white police officer manhandling a pretty teen girl wearing only a swimsuit to the ground.

“ 'Oh, waily, waily!” the liberal media screamed. “Clearly this is yet another case of racey-hatey racist white men oppressing the black children!”

"Apparently unlike the media, I took the time to inform myself: I listened to interviews with the black man who made the call (the man was fully supportive of the cop, by the way), watched the entire seven-minute clip made available publicly, and listened to other community members who witnessed the incident. There was way more to the story than that ten seconds of looped and incendiary video.

"Black activists, smelling another opportunity to hoover up cash and sympathy, were not so skeptical. Instead, they organized an 800-person march from a neighborhood school to the swimming pool of the mixed-race, mixed-income neighborhood, chanting and singing the whole way about how black lives matter.

. . .

"Now imagine yourself as a solitary police officer coming onto the scene: utter chaos, little children running away crying, loud music blasting, bad actors laughing, ordinary neighborhood families forced to abandon the pool THEY PAY FOR because of what was becoming a riot.

"These party-goers were teenagers. Think back just a few weeks ago to Baltimore. The first night of rioting, the earliest altercations were started by teenagers not in school or employed or at home with their families. They threw rocks at the police, some of them as big as bricks. They put one cop in the hospital overnight.

"This isn’t a case of race problems. This is, rather, a problem of parenting and of idle kids with no employment prospects." . . .   Read the full article

Bristol Palin takes on Miley Cyrus

Tea Party Crusaders

"Bristol Palin unleashed against Miley Cyrus Friday, penning a scathing blog targeting the pop star for comments she made in a recent magazine interview.

"Cyrus said in a recent interview — where she also posed nude — that she is the “least judgmental person ever,” but then proceeded to slam conservative lawmakers and Christians for their “f***ing insane” beliefs.

' “We’ve outgrown that fairy tale, like we’ve outgrown f***ing Santa and the tooth fairy,” Cyrus said, referencing individuals who believe Noah’s ark was a real vessel.

"Palin reacted to the comments in her Friday blog.

“ 'While her nude photo shoot has attracted the attention of many, it is her hilarious tirade about tolerance that turned my head,” Palin wrote.

“ 'Is it just me or does it seem more than a little fake that someone claiming to be accepting of everyone and everything would spew such judgment towards her own parents and their deeply held religious beliefs?” Palin asked.

"The daughter of former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin continued, hammering Cyrus for her comments.

“ 'She wants everyone else to let her be ‘free to be Miley,’ but seems unwilling to offer the same respect to her parents and those who wish to live out their Christian faith,” she wrote.

“ 'Oh, Miley,” Palin concluded. “Thanks for giving us the best example of what “tolerance” looks like in Hollywood: it looks a lot like contempt.' ” . . .More at the link.

"ISLAMIC STATE: Publishes ‘How To Survive In The West’ Guide For Undercover Jihadists… And It’s Kind Of Hilarious"

. . . "These 70 pages of creative capitalization and questionable punctuation lead off with a philosophical pitch to justify jihad:

“The leaders of disbelief repeatedly lie in the media and say that we Muslims are all terrorists, while we denied it and wanted to be peaceful citizens. [Which has] forced us into becoming radicalised, and that will be the cause of their defeat and be the cause for the conquest of Rome.”
So, the reasoning goes, the only way to prevent the West from accusing Muslims of being evil terrorists and killing everyone is to be evil terrorists and kill everyone.

"This premise is a jihadi gloss on what almost amounts to an entire subgenre of film, the “A Man Pushed Too Far” vigilante justice type. The plot is a familiar one: a strong silent type tries to live a peaceful life until reckless hoodlums (or the Man or whatever) push, insult, or attack him one too many times. One day the heroic figure snaps, and metes out death and destruction to all the evildoers. Vengeance is had, explosions ensue, and another summer blockbuster is born. This narrative pervades the theological and ideological discussion that justifies jihad."
Like a Charles Bronson film for Jihadis.

WHAT WAS A JOKE A FEW YEARS AGO IS NO LONGER QUITE SO SHOCKING:

I’m hoping Barack has a sex change and runs for reelection as a white woman with a really even tan. Talk about historic! The first transgendered president formerly known as a white male. That would shake things up, wouldn’t it? He could truly be all things to all people. He could write a sequel to his autobiography and title it Daydreams of My Mother, Myself.

Obama’s Marxist Social and Demographic Engineering of America

Noisy Room

 

"Obama is now making offers to debt-ridden municipalities that they dare not take. It’s like the devil offering you a way out and then collecting on that debt. Or, if you prefer, it’s like the mafia giving you money to solve your problems and then you owe them. Forever. The leaders in these areas won’t ask the residents and voters, they’ll let the silver cross their palms and will be blinded by the shininess of the coin they pocket. Corruption will finish selling free America down the proverbial river. I’ll be blunt… these municipalities should not be taking money from the feds. They should solve their problems at the local level, stand on their own and not be beholding to a governmental behemoth.

"Under the guise of Obama’s Utopia, our president has been plotting for years the ultimate wealth redistribution here in America. It’s Marxist social and demographic engineering on a breathtaking scale. I believe this is the most insidious thing he has planned for us and it is a killer.

"Obama believes the suburbs and wealthier neighborhoods are far too white. They are not racially diverse enough for his tastes. So, he is now going to municipalities that are sorely in need of funds and very much in debt up to their eyeballs, and offering them a way out." . . .

Did Rachel Dolezal not only fake her race, but fake 'hate crimes,' too?

UPDATE: A Generation of Rachel Dolezals? "A couple of years ago, I wrote an article about Rachel Dolezal. Well, the piece doesn’t actually mention Dolezal, but it does explain her. As Christian Adams points out, Dolezal’s case is far from isolated. Other activist leftists have tried to pose as racial minorities. But as I argued in 2013 in “The Wannabe Oppressed,” today’s campus climate activists, if only half-realizeing(sp) it, are actually trying to turn themselves into oppressed southern blacks from the 1950s. As I show in that piece, Bill McKibben, leader of the climate movement, even went through a brief Dolezal-like episode during his college years. Hans Fiene’s argument that “Selma envy” is driving the attacks on Christian religious freedom is a variation on the “wannabe oppressed” idea. We’ve raised a generation that thirsts for the sainthood conferred by racial oppression. Being well-off and free mustn’t be allowed to stand in the way. Ultimately, this is a question of religion, of needing a crusade to substitute for all that our increasingly secular millennials have lost." . . .  And this nation will pay a terrible price for this, as it is now. TD

...If it worked for Rachel Dolezal...

 

Did Rachel Dolezal not only fake her race, but fake 'hate crimes,' too?
. . .  "Dolezal has reported several instances of "hate crimes" that police have been unable to confirm, including "hate mail" directed at the NAACP that was never sent through the regular mail and, according to postal employees, could only have been placed in the organization's post office box by someone with a key." . . .

So desperate was she to become a victim of white racism that she may have created these incidents to justify her blackness to herself.  At the very least, this is one disturbed woman.  And it is incomprehensible that so many on the left are encouraging her in her delusions by saying she did nothing wrong.

EXCLUSIVE: 'I'm the real victim here' - cop who quit over body-slamming bikini girl, 15, speaks from hiding place where he is being guarded by off-duty officers after death threats

UK Daily Mail
"Opening brawl: This was the racially-charged confrontation which - together with scores of youths turning up for the pool party uninvited - prompted 911 calls to local police "

. . . "A source told Mail Online that Casebolt is also preparing to be sued by the schoolgirl's lawyers.

"If a charge is levied, Mail Online has been told, the former officer will argue that he was carrying out his duties in difficult circumstances and attempting to detain witnesses as he would be have been required to do.'

"His lawyer Jane Bishkin described him as 'a compassionate officer who only wanted to serve the community of McKinney'.

"Casebolt had attended two suicide call outs in the hour before the incident at Craig Ranch when he manhandled the schoolgirl while trying to detain her.

"A witness to the first incident where a man shot himself dead by a swimming pool said Casebolt was extremely professional when he arrived. The tragedy happened around eight miles from Craig Ranch."  Read more

Witnesses: Patricia Vigil, 48, and her daughter Vanessa, who saw the aftermath of the suicide which Eric Casebolt was called to before he went to the pool party. They told Daily Mail Online the officer looked 'pained and afflicted' as he stood beside the dead man's body. Just over an hour later he attended the pool party.

Left’s Reaction to Seinfeld Exactly What You’d Expect

Legal Insurrection   His opinion doesn’t count because he’s rich.

 

"Our humorless and intellectually superior friends on the left listened to what Jerry Seinfeld said about political correctness and proved his point in exactly the way you’d expect.

"Progressives can’t abide a celebrity with Seinfeld’s gravitas criticizing their culture of microaggressions and limits on free speech so naturally, he must be discredited.

"MSNBC’s Alex Wagner discussed the subject with her guests and for the most part, they dismissed Seinfeld’s concerns because after all, he’s rich." . . .
. . .
"Not to be outdone, Salon offered their super-smart take on the issue:

Jerry Seinfeld is a wimp: What his anti-P.C. tirades are really about
Jerry Seinfeld, observational comedian of the masses, has been on the warpath of late. Starting with an interview on ESPN Radio on Monday, the decidedly non-edgy comic proceeded to stake his claim as the latest standard-bearer in the ongoing war between comedians and political correctness. “I don’t play colleges,” Seinfeld told ESPN’s Colin Cowherd, “but I hear a lot of people tell me, ‘Don’t go near colleges, they’re so PC.’”…
To quote a classic Seth Meyers bit: “Really?!”
If it’s not enough of a red flag when a trio of wealthy straight white men — Seinfeld and Meyers, along with New Yorker editor David Remnick — discuss the looming threat of political correctness, Seinfeld’s sweeping generalization of college-aged audiences packs an arrogance that gives this defender of nothing-is-off-limits comedy pause.

"Right. Jerry Seinfeld is the wimp, not the politically correct prigs who created the very culture he’s criticizing." . . .

Let the images of these classy people commenting on police actions be your takeaway image.

Mom's Viral Video Message: Respect the Police Video at the link.

 

"Respect the police: That’s a message from one mom in a video that’s gone viral on Facebook.

"In the video that’s been viewed more than 2 million times, Kisa Jackson said that parents need to take ownership of their children’s actions. She added that kids must follow protocol and respect officers.

"Jackson was responding to the recent video which shows then-police officer Eric Casebolt pin a teen girl to the ground and then draw his weapon at a pool party in Texas. Casebolt has since resigned.

“ 'Do I think that the incident was excessive? Yes. But do I think it was necessary? Yes. Parents need to take ownership [of] what their children are doing and hold them accountable for their actions, as well as the parents should be held accountable,” Jackson said in the video."

'Not All Officers Are Racist': Black Man's Defense of Police Goes Viral 
 Video, but it may not play,
"A 22-year-old African-American man recorded a video after a recent encounter with a police officer and the video has gone viral. But it's not for the reasons you might think.

"In the video, Will Stack, a 22-year-old U.S. Army National Guardsman, recounts his experience with a white police officer in South Carolina.

"Stack explains that he was pulled over for "improper use of the median." After handing over his license and registration and listening politely while the officer explained what he did wrong, Stack was given a warning and sent on his way.

"The positive encounter with a police officer inspired Stack to share his experience.

" 'People need to understand that not all officers are crooked," Stack says in the video. "Not all officers are racist, bad people. And not all people who get shot or tased or arrested by officers are innocent victims."

" 'Just because you're black doesn't mean you're a victim, just because you're white doesn't mean you're a racist, just because you're a cop doesn't mean you're a bad person," Stack added." . . .

Shocker ! – Dallas Reporter Investigating The “Dime Girls” and “Twinzz Promotions” and “Make It Clap” Parties…

The Last Refuge   "Hat Tip Nettles – Wow. It appears the Dallas area might actually have an investigative journalist willing to expose the sexploitation of minors.  That’s really the bigger picture behind the McKinney “Craig Ranch” pool fiasco."

"We previously revealed the McKinney Texas June 5th pool party mob at the Craig Ranch sub-division was organized by 20-year-old Tatyana Rhodes (left), and her mother LaShana Burks (right).The Facts Behind The McKinney Pool Fiasco – Part II


"Combined these young ladies were promoting, and selling tickets for, Tatyana’s next event “#Make It Clap Pt.2″ as noted in her promotional flyer.

"Disturbingly “Make It Clap” references two exceptionally sexual and suggestive urban connotations: One urban definition is “twerking” a sexually suggestive dance where butt cheeks create the auditory reference. The second is a sexual position where the male activity provides the sound. “Make It Clap” where “it” is a young ladies posterior."  More at the link.

 

There go the home prices in Craig Ranch, a beautiful place. 

. . . " The social media of the aforementioned teen “Dime Piece Girls” is so profoundly vulgar in graphic sexual language and imagery, we intentionally refuse to show or link to it. Personally we find it difficult to believe their parents accept what is being advertised by their teenage daughters. However, we are forced to admit, there exists today a sociology of thug-life and culture that accepts behavior historically defined as lacking virtue or morality." . . .
