A new article from Variety profiles Hollywood celebrities from Alyssa Milano to Amy Schumer who are spending unprecedented time and effort on electing Democrats this fall.

Actress Alyssa Milano feels that the midterms are a "perfect storm" from "electing Trump to #MeToo to this Kavanaugh hearing and Dr. [Christine Blasey] Ford coming forward."

"This is all personal now. And when we are seeing our rights stripped away, we're scared. Women are scared," Milano told Variety.

The 45-year-old actress is also quoted as saying that "enraged" women will help Democrats win the Senate.

Comment: Someone ought to mention this last point to Alec Baldwin who has made some outrageous comments recently:

School and students faces lawsuit after group of 'mean girls' set out to destroy boy's life with false sexual assault accusations

Seneca Valley School District in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is facing a lawsuit from a former male student who was forced out of school-and investigated for sexual assault-due to a series of false accusations made by female students.

The girls-dubbed "mean girls" in the lawsuit, a reference to the 2004 Lindsay Lohan film-admitted on tape that they made up the assault story. One said, "I just don't like him" and "[I] would do anything to get him expelled," according to The Toronto Sun.

The false allegations were life-derailing for the accused, who is referred to as "T.F." in the lawsuit. On October 3, 2017, one of the girls told other students that T.F. had sexually assaulted her at a pool; a Seneca Valley guidance counselor overheard the accusation, and reported it to Childline, the state's child abuse prevention agency, as required by law. T.F. was swiftly charged with indecent assault and harassment, and received six months of probation as part of a plea deal.

Comment: This is what happens in an age when males are considered natural born predators and females must be believed without question or even evidence. The social degradation of males has naturally created fertile ground for predators within the opposite sex to manipulate and deceive. In this instance, the school was led around by children. It is the responsibility of adults in the room to use reason and to thoroughly investigate such claims. The problem is so many have been swept up by ideologies that are unthinking, reactive, and uncritical.

Talk radio icon Michael Savage described Antifa and Occupy groups as the Democrat Party's "brownshirts," offering his remarks in a Tuesday interview with Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow on SiriusXM's Breitbart News Daily.

Savage reflected on recent violent events committed by left-wing activists in Portland, OR.

"What happened over the weekend in Portland with the Antifa violence - a domestic terrorist organization - so exemplifies the mass hysteria of our times, where people think they're justified in taking over streets and beating people up. But where is it coming from, this hysteria to think that it's okay to beat up the opposition? You don't have to look any further than Hillary Clinton, who says we don't need a civil society until we have power again [or] the deranged Maxine Waters, who should be impeached for what she's doing."

A former senior Facebook engineer who wrote a memo earlier this year decrying the social media giant's "political monoculture" told Fox News on Tuesday night that the company has a "vocal minority" intent on implementing "social justice policies across our mission."

Brian Amerige, whose last day at Facebook was Friday, told Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight that "you can't have conversations about ... anything that's a tenet of the social justice ideology, effectively, without being attacked personally." He added that the company's recent policy cracking down on so-called hate speech was a particularly sensitive topic.

"You can't even have conversations about that policy inside the company without having your character attacked -- and I've experienced this personally -- without being called a sexist or a racist or a transphobe or an Islamophobe," said Amerige.

Sweden declares 'hand grenade amnesty' to curb deadly gang crimes

Sweden has introduced a temporary amnesty for anyone in possession of hand grenades and other explosives, urging the public to turn in their illegal arsenals before mid-January, with no legal consequences or questions asked.

Facing a massive surge in gang-related crimes, in particular involving the use of hand grenades, police in Sweden have introduced a three-month-long amnesty for "explosive goods." From this week until January 11, 2019, anyone in possession of explosives, which have not been used in criminal activity, can turn them over to the authorities without being detained.

"Anyone who contacts the police voluntarily during the amnesty will not be charged with illegal handling, and has the right to remain anonymous," the national police said in a statement.

While the public is urged to surrender the listed goods, which include hand grenades, gunpowder, igniters, and pyrotechnical items, they are asked to avoid driving to the police station to hand over the items. Out of public safety concerns, authorities insist that "police takes care of the explosive goods," after arranging their collection via a call center.

Comment: So, the backstory to this is that someone dumped entire arsenals of Yugoslavia-era weapons on a couple of dodgy neighborhoods in Swedish cities, literally handing out grenades like candy. There's almost certainly a 'NATO stay-behind' factor involved here, as organized crime wouldn't be able to pull it off alone, and gangsters have no interest in giving things away for free.

A Saudi Royal Air Force plane crashed during a training mission on Monday in the northwest of the kingdom, killing all of its crew, a Defense Ministry source was quoted as saying on the state news agency SPA on Tuesday.

The report did not say how many crew members were on board of the plane, which was a Hawk. Investigations are underway to determine the cause of the crash.

Comment: They've been extremely short on details. One wonders, of course, whether it's related to the Khashoggi murder and the intense spotlight the kingdom is under...

A feminist theater play with a telltale name "Salon Vagina!" expected to enlighten schoolkids about "the pussy" has caused many angry reactions among ordinary Swedes.

The cultural institution Skolscen sydost (School Scene Southeast), which organizes performances in kindergartens, elementary schools and high schools, has presented the feminist play "Salon Vagina!" to be staged in Blekinge County's schools next year, Swedish Radio reported.

The performance shows three feminist actresses singing about female genitalia while spreading their legs. An excerpt from the play posted on YouTube shows them chanting "pussy, fanny, muff, beaver, slit" while standing on their heads with legs spread wide open. "I want to call mine a canary bird. It's nothing unusual," one of the actresses says in the show.

"Our play is a peppy humor show about female genitals. It feels great to do theater for children in the upper secondary school, something we felt was needed," actress Malin Karlsson told Swedish Radio.

A Georgia professor offered her students extra credit to attend a campaign event that a Democrat gubernatorial candidate hosted on campus with Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

Clayton State University criminal justice professor Andrea Allen offered students extra credit to attend an event on Tuesday supporting Democrat Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

"Although I never offer extra credit, I'm making a one-time exception," Allen told students in the email. "I'm sure you've heard by now that the Abrams campaign along with Senator Warren are visiting campus tomorrow at 10 am in the UC commons. They would like a really big turnout. To help out I'm offering the following opportunity: If you attend, take a selfie of you at the events, and upload a pic to the folder I'm creating in D2L, I'll add 2 bonus points to your final grade.

The video, produced by Double Down News, shows Monbiot talking to the camera, and is intercut with often gruesome film clips, as he goes through colonial history detailing atrocities committed by Europeans.

The journalist tweeted that he had not received an "explanation or a right of appeal." Going on to implore fellow journalists Owen Jones, Medhi Hassan, left-wing publication Novara Media and activist Peter Tatchell to retweet his video.
