The Republican National Committee is going after Democratic politicians and liberal celebrities in a new ad dubbing the left as "unhinged."

The ad, released Tuesday, splices together sound bites from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), as well as several celebrities, to cast the modern Democratic Party as radical and - at times - violent.

"A few years ago, ideas that we talked about were thought to be fringe ideas, radical ideas and extremist ideas," Sanders can be heard saying in the ad, as images of burning cars and graffiti promoting revolution appear on the screen. "Those ideas are now mainstream."

Among the celebrities featured in the video: comedian Kathy Griffin, talk show hosts Bill Maher and Samantha Bee, actor Johnny Depp and singer Madonna.


Comment: The American left really needs to get a hold of the radical positions being made 'acceptable to the mainstream'. Both the left and right have appropriate places in society when they are appropriately balanced. However, the regressive progressives have indeed become incredibly unhinged and if left to their own devices will create even more destruction than they could hope for.

Jake Gyllenhaal stars as a psychopathic ambulance-chasing photographer who rises to success by willing to do anything to capture his next gory shot. Not so different from George Soros himself.
Billionaire investor George Soros is now investing in America's controversial personal-injury lawsuits market, Bloomberg reports.

Soros Fund Management has begun offering investment portfolios out of lawsuits. The billionaire's hedge fund is bankrolling a company called Mighty Group, which gives cash advances to plaintiffs in return for future settlements.

Mighty Group gives $2,000 on average for legal claims typically tied to car and construction accidents, in exchange for a cut from a settlement. Such advances are typically used to cover rent or medical treatment.

New figures show annual public cost of funding royal family jumps 13%

The annual cost of the Queen is now 69p per person, as figures show that royal spending rose 13 percent in 2017/2018. Taxpayers' funding has also increased by 40 percent for Prince William, Harry and Kate.

New data from the royal accounts reveal that the public funds used by the Queen for official spending and royal duties jumped from £41.9 million ($54.8 million) to £47.4 million ($62 million) last year.

The main reason for the 13-percent increase in costs borne by the taxpayer is understood to be the refurbishment of Buckingham Palace. Over £4 million ($5.2 million) was spent on the initial phase of improvements at the palace, which included the removal of old wiring.

The Queen's official pay-packet is derived from public funds in exchange for revenue from the Crown Estate. The "core" of the sovereign grant is usually based on 15 percent of the net surplus of the Crown Estate, but this year the grant is based on 25 percent of the surplus in order to meet the costs of refurbishing the palace.

Comment: So while the homeless in the UK struggle to survive on a daily basis, the Queen and her family live lavishly on the penny of the British taxpayer. Something is wrong with this picture.

A man has been jailed for almost two years after saying he wanted to "slit a Muslim's throat" in a series of Islamophobic tweets following the Manchester Arena attack. The 31-year-old was found guilty of inciting racial hatred.

Rhodenne Chand, from Birmingham, posted 32 tweets following a terrorist attack on Ariana Grande's concert on May 22 last year that killed 22 and left many more injured .

He was arrested on June 17 last year after a member of the public reported him to the police. West Midlands Police said the tweets encouraged violence against Muslim and Pakistani communities and attacks on mosques.

Superintendent Mat Shaer of West Midlands Police said the messages "left people fearing some of the threats could be carried out by him or his Twitter followers".

Sputnik takes an inside look into Ukraine's Security Services' death squads

In an exclusive, in-depth interview with Sputnik, Sergei Sanovsky, a former training instructor for one of Ukraine's most notorious far-right volunteer militias, shared his story about how he went from being hailed a "hero of Maidan" to getting kidnapped and tortured by Ukraine's Security Service for refusing to run an extrajudicial death squad.

'A Simple Hero of the Maidan'

Sergei Sanovsky comes from a long line of career military men. Before 2014, he served in a Spetsnaz detachment of Ukraine's Internal Troops, commanding a reconnaissance group and working as a sniper instructor before leaving military service.

Sergei participated in the Maidan street protests, which rocked Ukraine in late 2013 and early 2014 and culminated in the overthrow of President Viktor Yanukovych. Yanukovych was ousted after he reversed course on the signing of an association agreement with the European Union.

"This was like a breath of fresh air," Sanovsky recalled, speaking to Sputnik from Myanmar, the country he fled to after leaving his home country in 2017. "It seemed then that we could really change the country for the better."

During the protests, Sergei and his friend tried to hide a group of protesters from the Berkut riot police. He was caught and received a vicious beating, with the police breaking his jaw and knocking out most of his teeth. He was unconscious for two days and required several surgeries. In the pro-Maidan Ukrainian press, he was sympathetically hailed as "A simple hero of the Maidan."

Comment: And these psychopathic torturers and killers are the people that the US and the EU support just to spite Russia. Did you catch that Poroshenko himself approves the work of the death squads? See also:

Russian pop star Emin ridiculed Russiagaters in a new clip, featuring lookalikes of Trump and others partying hard with Miss Universe contestants and taking shots together. Some in US media took the fun video too seriously.

Russian pop star Emin Agalarov, also known as Emin - his name surfaced in US headlines last year when it emerged he helped arrange a meeting between Trump's eldest son and a Russian lawyer at Trump Tower in 2016 - relentlessly trolled Trump-Russia collusion allegations in his new satire clip called 'Got Me Good'.

The three-minute music video opens up with a man who appears to be Kim Jong-un in front of several CCTV screens. Scoffing popcorn, he watches Emin encounter a woman in a lift who appears to be Stormy Daniels - the woman who claimed she had an affair with Donald Trump. The pair exchange a small stack of what appears to be money.

In the latest confrontation between Trump-hating liberals and a conservative woman, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, the wife of Mitch McConnell (R-KY), unleashed on a group of protesters who ambushed the couple as they left a Monday dinner at Georgetown University with business executives from Cambria Health Solutions.

As the group of angry Georgetown students loudly approached with signboards and backpacks, Chao shouted back "Why don't you leave my husband alone?" while pointing at them.

"How does he sleep at night" shot back one of the protesters.

Comment: The deluded SJWs think they are 'fighting for a better world' but are really only being exploited by a ruthless oligarch.

The video, which was posted to Facebook, shows New Castle Police officer Ronald Williams unnecessarily and repeatedly slamming Perry Lawry’s head into the floor until the man is left unconscious in a pool of his own blood.
A Pennsylvania police officer was fired last month after a gruesome video surfaced showing him repeatedly smash a man's head into the floor until he fell unconscious. Now, all charges against the victim, whose head was the target of the cop's rage, have been dropped as well-exposing the entirely unnecessary use of force and subsequent arrest.

On Wednesday, the New Castle police department announced that all charges have been dropped against the man in the video.

The Pentagon has been requested to house and take care of some 12,000 illegal immigrants at its military bases along the Mexican border, to help the White House impose its "zero-tolerance" policy.

"The Department of Defense has received a request for assistance from the Department of Homeland Security to house and care for an alien family population of up to 12,000 people. DHS requests that DoD identify any available facilities that could be used for that purpose," the Pentagon said in a statement.

The request is quite urgent as the first 2,000 beds will have to be provided within 45 days. If the Pentagon does not find any available space, it is being asked to identify three potential construction sites and to erect "semi-separate, soft-sided camp facilities" that could house as many as 4,000 people each. Four US states which border Mexico - Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, or California - are considered ideal locations.

On Tuesday, voters at the polls in Oklahoma approved a ballot measure to legalize medical cannabis, according to a CNBCreport. After nearly a two-year-old signature drive, cannabis activists were finally successful in bringing State Question 788 to the Oklahoma ballot earlier this year.

Oklahoma's medical marijuana rules are some of the most progressive medical cannabis rules adopted to date and will allow an individual to possess up to 8 ounces of cannabis, six mature plants, and six seedlings. The law would also permit cannabis edibles and concentrates. Patients must receive permission from an Oklahoma Medical Board certified physician - there is not currently a list of qualifying conditions that must be satisfied, patients only need a doctor's recommendation.

Comment: The country which contrived the demonization of cannabis is now one of those at the forefront of its decriminalization, but there's still a long way to go into reversing the damage done by decades propaganda: Also check out SOTT radio's:The Health & Wellness Show: The Highs and Lows of Cannabis as Medicine
