Caught on bodycam: Former Senator charged with sex trafficking underaged boy

Body Camera footage, released this week, shows the moment police raided the hotel room occupied by former Oklahoma State Senator Ralph Shortey and his underage victim.

In the body camera footage, Shortey appears dumbfounded as he is caught with the underage boy in his room.

The officer says, "He's 17."

Shortey replies, "Okay."

The officer then asks, "What do you mean, 'Okay'?"

"I didn't know that," replies Shortey.

"Can you show me that he is only 17?" Shortey says in the video.

Ironically, and in poor taste, the senator was wearing a t-shirt referencing the Bible scripture Ephesians 5:22, which refers to wives submitting to their husbands. Under the scripture was the phrase, "Now go make me a sandwich." Shortey was known as the "family values" senator.

A child aged 11, unhappy with her physical appearance, posted on her Instagram account of her intention to die. A coroner returned a verdict of suicide at the inquest into the death of Milly Tuomey from Templeogue in Dublin 6. The child died on January 4, 2016.

"Milly was loving and greatly loved, fit, healthy, connected, engaged and talented," the child's devastated parents Fiona and Tim Tuomey said in a statement after the inquest.

"When we discovered out of the blue that our child had told her friends on Instagram that she had chosen the day she would die, we couldn't believe it. We did not know what to do," they said.

Dublin Coroner's Court heard that on November 3 2015 Milly posted on Instagram to hundreds of friends of her intention to die on a certain date.

Her parents were alerted by her elder sister and her school.

Oil field 'man camps' in North Dakota terrorizing & sex trafficking Native American kids and adults

Sex Trafficking Native American Kids and Adults
The recent disappearance of a 32-year-old mother has shed new light on the growing problem of violence against women that live near the booming oil fields of North Dakota. Over a month ago, Olivia Lone Bear went missing from Fort Berthold Reservation and has not been heard from since.

In a recent interview, lawyer Mary Kathryn Nagle, who is helping the family with the investigation, pointed out that violence against women in this particular area has been steadily increasing since the oil companies came to town.

"We have the highest rates across the United States, again, in Indian Country, of violence, but in particular in North Dakota, where the rates of oil extraction have skyrocketed since 2005 in the Bakken oil boom. As a result of that, over 100,000 men from outside the state of North Dakota have moved to the state of North Dakota to live in man camps that the oil companies have set up. And unfortunately, as Senator Heidi Heitkamp has noted, as the former U.S. Attorney for the state of North Dakota has noted, the resulting rates of violence, drug of course, and crime and burglary have skyrocketed, but also in particular, domestic violence and sexual assault, including rape and sex trafficking," Nagle said.

Western fascism: Russia banned from 2018 Winter Olympics

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has suspended the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) from 2018 Olympics, ruling that "clean" Russian athletes can only compete under a neutral flag in South Korea in February.

The decision comes following a panel hearing on the results of investigations involving Russia being accused of doping violations. On Tuesday, the IOC Executive Board was presented with the findings of the Commission led by the former President of Switzerland, Samuel Schmid.

Having "held hearings with all the main actors" and "gathered evidence and information," the commission accused Russia of "the systemic manipulation of the anti-doping rules and system in Russia, through the Disappearing Positive Methodology and during the Olympic Winter Games Sochi 2014." Its findings also confirm "various levels of administrative, legal and contractual responsibility," the IOC statement said.

The executive board also ruled that no officials from Russia's sport ministry will be allowed accreditation for the Winter Games in PyeongChang. Russia's former sports minister, Vitaly Mutko and his then deputy, Yury Nagornykh, have been banned "from any participation in all future Olympic Games." ROC President, Aleksandr Zhukov, has been suspended as an IOC member.

Comment: Not only is this a humiliating and politicized decision by the IOC, but they also showed how petty and low they were by deciding to give the Russian delegation a copy of the Schmid report on Russian doping just minutes before the delegation is set to meet with the IOC executive committee and defend themselves against the findings of the report. Clearly the IOC did not want the Russians to be able to make any kind of real defense. The IOC is showing itself to be a tool of Western political interests who are intent on making Russia look bad in whatever way they can.

Liberal tears over Trump tweets underscore their nauseating hypocrisy

There is no more unedifying a sight than the sight of the Western liberal establishment rushing to seize the moral high ground. Like a pack of hungry dogs presented with food, Western liberals, desperate to bolster their misplaced sense of exceptionalism and virtue, become positively deranged whenever the opportunity to do so presents itself.

Thus we have the feeding frenzy in response to Trump retweeting anti-Muslim tweets sent out by the far right political organization Britain First in the UK.

Though they are a small marginal group in the scheme of things, Britain First is known for being clever in its use of social media, working to achieve a ubiquitous presence that far outweighs its size or support. As such, they will no doubt be delighted at having achieved the tacit endorsement of the President of the United States.

Comment: Liberals make use of a 'compassionate' image toward Muslims precisely because it allows them to commit crimes against this population while still feeling good about themselves. This deception attempts to cover their tracks as fundamentally 'good and decent folk', which unfortunately is believed by many.

MSNBC "severing ties" with Sam Seder over tweet supporting Polanski/child rape

sam seder polanski tweet
MSNBC is set to cut ties with its contributor Sam Seder after an offensive tweet Seder posted in 2009 resurfaced this past week, according to an exclusive report from The Wrap.

In the tweet, which has since been deleted, Seder wrote "Dont care re Polanski, but i hope if my daughter is ever raped it is by an older truly talented man w/ a great sense of mise en scene":


The Wrap reported that the decision not to renew Seder's contract resulted from the tweet. A source familiar with the situation told The Wrap that "Internally there was disgust over the tweet."

The tweet from Seder came during a time when many in Hollywood were demanding Polanski be allowed to return to the United States.

If Seder's tweet was a joke, it just shows how tone-deaf he is to what most people consider normal behavior. If it was serious, well, it's just amazing it took 8 years for anyone to notice... But then again, maybe that kind of thinking is normal in Seder's milieu:

Hungarian FM - 'Illegal migration led to terror in EU, needs to be stopped'

Budapest has dismissed the possibility of compromise with the EU on the migrant rehousing issue, rejecting the proposed plan on "fair share" distribution of asylum seekers, designed to replace the mandatory quota system.

"Hungary's view on migration is clear and rock steady: We think illegal immigration is dangerous. Because of illegal immigration, Europe has never had to face the kind of terror threat it faces now," Szijjarto told a news conference with ministers and officials from Eastern and Southern Europe.

The foreign minister stressed that any sort of "encouragement"for further migrant arrivals was against the interests of Europe, while the only acceptable solution for Hungary was stopping the illegal migration as far from the EU's borders as possible.

Tucker trolls John Hopkins professor - compares immigration and college admissions policies

Tucker Carlson
Fox News' Tucker Carlson interviewed a professor Monday and compared higher education's support of open borders for America with their own admission policies.

The Daily Caller co-founder told Johns Hopkins University professor Wendy Osefo, "I'm hearing on college campuses that you can't keep people out of this country just because they don't know anything, or can speak your language, or don't have any money. You have to let them in and if you don't you're a racist."

Pedophiles targeting young children online using live-streaming sites

People like 'Sam' are sneaking past internet filters and parental locks to abuse British children. In just one week police arrested nearly 200 sex pests, more than a quarter for blackmail, grooming, or using live streaming to target children.

In their week-long crackdown, UK police and the National Crime Agency protected 245 children from sexual abuse. The National Police Chief Council lead for Child Protection, Chief Constable Simon Bailey, said police and targeted forces arrested 192 offenders on suspicion of child sexual abuse offences.

"We will keep working together to do this, adapting our approach so that nowhere online is safe for people out to groom children or view them being abused," Bailey said. "But we also need help. We need internet companies to help us stop access to sexual abuse images and videos and prevent abuse happening on their platforms. We need parents and carers to talk to their children about healthy relationships and staying safe online."

Police and NCA intelligence indicates that dangerous offenders are lurking online and taking advantage of the immediate nature of live-streaming offers. Social media networks such as Snapchat, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube all feature some sort of live-stream capability - but it isn't the standard social networks that parents need to watch out for. Some services are exclusively devoted to live streaming, such as Omegle, Liveme, Lively and Periscope.
