    PoliZette ^ | Updated 05 Nov 2016 | Matthew Vadum
    As Election Day nears and the GOP nominee rises, attacks on his backers, signs and buildings are escalatingPhysical attacks on Donald Trump supporters and their personal property appear to be growing increasingly common as Election Day approaches and passions intensify. As LifeZette recently reported, there was a foiled assassination attempt at a Trump rally and many Trump supporters have been beaten up or hit with flying objects throughout the course of the fall campaign. While the mainstream media has relentlessly promoted Hillary Clinton’s candidacy, it has largely ignored or downplayed these violent attacks against supporters of Donald Trump. For example,...

    Former President Bill Clinton is set to campaign in the U.S. Virgin Islands Monday where his friend and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein operated “Orgy Island.” According to Newsweek, Clinton has visited the “orgy island” — known as Little St. James — as part of Epstein’s “inner circle” where the hedge fund manager has an estate on the 72-acre island. (RELATED:Bill Clinton Took Twice As Many Flights On ‘Pedophile Island’ Billionaire’s ‘Lolita Express’ Than Previously Reported) Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting an underage girl for prostitution and served one year of house arrest in Florida.

    Is this when it ends for that ancient ideal, the truth? Is this where it has come to die, victim of campaigns and conspiracies, politicians and internet trolls and the masses who swallow their rhetoric? Rest in peace, honesty? “The value of facts in a democracy has taken a beating,” said David Barrett, a political science professor at Villanova University. […] [Ohio University professor Kevin] Mattson said theories originating with left-leaning academics in France and elsewhere questioning whether anything can truly be known as fact began taking hold among American thinkers in the 1970s and 1980s. There is a connection...

  • For Rolling Stone, 'worst nightmare' continues

    Associated Press ^ | Nov 5, 2016 5:23 PM EDT | Alanna Durkin Richer
    Days after Rolling Stone magazine published a shocking 9,000-word story about a brutal gang rape at the University of Virginia in November 2014, the magazine’s editors received an email just before 2 a.m. with “Our worst nightmare” in the subject line. They needed to run a retraction, the reporter said. Instead, Rolling Stone kept the article on its website for four months before finally pulling it down that April and officially retracting the story. That decision was enough to convince a federal jury in Charlottesville on Friday that the magazine defamed a university administrator, who claimed she was cast as...

    Link to video of action At a little before 4 a.m. on September 16th, in Gwinnet County, Georgia,  three armed home invaders picked the wrong house.  The video shows much of the action, but written accounts fill in some interesting details.  The Chinese immigrant woman, Chen Fengzu, had recently been given a gun by her husband. She had fired it at the range one time.  A shop assistant was staying at the house that night, (in a separate bedroom).  The shop assistant was rousted first.  He shouted a warning, "No Money!"  He was not armed.  But Chen Fengzu was. ...

    Washington Examiner ^ | Nov 5, 2016 | Paul Bedard
    Amnesty for illegal immigrants like a program proposed by Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton would require an immediate tax hike of $1.2 trillion, a $15,000 hit on every household in America, according to a new analysis of immigration reform. The authoritative National Academy of Sciences said the cost to give some 11 million illegals citizenship rights would be staggering, though it suggested long-term benefits.

    Authorities say a Florida woman lied about having an affair to make her cheating husband jealous, and then her angry husband fatally shot the supposed other man. The Bradenton Herald reports that the shooting occurred Thursday morning. The Manatee County Sheriff's Office says deputies responded to a Bradenton home and found Dequan Randolph dead. Witnesses at the scene identified the shooter as Derrick Frazier. Frazier initially told detectives he was never at the scene. Authorities say he changed his story several times, eventually claiming that Randolph had pulled the gun, and a struggle ensued. Frazier has been charged with second-degree...

    Associated Press ^ | Nov 5, 2016 9:30 AM EDT
    Republicans seem likely to keep their House majority in Tuesday’s election, though it’s expected to shrink. […] Operatives on both sides say they expect the GOP to lose perhaps 10-15 seats for the new Congress that convenes Jan. 3. With an ever-growing proportion of hard-right conservatives, leaders such as Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., have a tougher time uniting the party behind bills and strategies. It also makes it harder for Ryan to secure the votes he’ll need to remain speaker. …

    Comedian Dave Chappelle has been prepping for his November 12 hosting slot on Saturday Night Live with a series of surprise shows at The Cutting Room in New York. On Friday night, he shocked the crowd with a 60-minute set largely devoted to slamming Hillary Clinton. He was particularly agitated about what he believes was Clinton’s role in leaking a surreptitiously recorded conversation between Republican nominee Donald J. Trump and TV personality Billy Bush. “What I heard on that tape was gross,” Chappelle said. “But the way I got to hear it was even more gross. You know that came...

    A media double-standard that needs to be penalized. Joe Paterno, “JoePa,” the once legendary Head Football Coach of the Penn State Nittany Lions with 409 career wins under his belt, not including a record 24 Bowl victories, made news again this past Saturday even though he has been dead for nearly five years. If you remember, Paterno overnight went from beloved to reviled in 2011 over allegations that he didn’t do enough to prevent Jerry Sandusky’s era of sexual abuse in Happy Valley. The latest dustup began when Penn State decided to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the start of...

    The Nostradamus predictions 2016 talk of a “false trumpet” that will “cause Byzantium to change its laws”. Also, it talks of a “man who wants the edict withdrawn, changing money and standards”. Believers have pointed out that the trumpet refers to Trump who is a highly controversial businessman turned political aspirant. There are several references to broken agreements in the passage. These may refer to Trump’s wish to end several treaties and also “the wall”. The latter refers to Trump’s desire to build a wall at the border between Mexico and the United States

    COLUMBUS(WCMH/AP) — The FBI says dozens of pimps, prostitutes and associates have been arrested under international efforts to combat underage human trafficking. The FBI says 239 child-sex traffickers and their associates were arrested and 82 children were rescued from Oct. 13 to 16 as part of Operation Cross Country X. This is a depressing day in law enforcement,” said FBI Director Comey, “because this is the world we live in and the work we have to do.” But it is also a proud day for law enforcement, he added, “because there are people who spend every day worrying about how...

    Associated Press HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - Federal officials looking into how Penn State handled child sexual-abuse complaints against former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky hit the university with a record $2.4 million fine Thursday, saying it violated campus crime reporting requirements, failed to warn people about potential threats and fostered a belief among athletes that rules didn't apply to them. The fine was the result of a five-year investigation begun as Sandusky's 2011 arrest raised questions about what administrators had known about him. http://www.newson6.com/story/33624827/feds-investigating-sandusky-fine-penn-state-a-record-24m

Jeremy Corbyn on Saturday called on May to immediately spell out her Brexit negotiating terms to Parliament now that Britain’s High Court has ruled that Parliament must give its approval before formal talks begin. …

    “Issac the traveler” as he is known on social media has so far walked almost 6,000 km and has now reached Kuwait. But the Spanish traveler of Algerian descent has about 1,356 km to go to reach the holy city of Makkah to perform Umrah. Umrah is a non-mandatory lesser pilgrimage made by Muslims to Makkah, which may be performed at any time of the year. From Paris - Issac’s starting point - the traveler took five months to reach Kuwait, passing through 16 countries. The only device he has with him to help him reach the goal is simply...
