A sexting compulsion that cost Anthony Weiner his seat in Congress and a chance to be New York City's mayor is about to cost him his freedom too.

Weiner, a Democrat, is scheduled to surrender by 2 p.m. Monday at Devens Federal Medical Center in Massachusetts to serve a 21-month sentence for illicit online contact with a 15-year-old girl.

The facility in Ayer, about 40 miles (64 kilometers) west of Boston, has over 1,000 inmates at the medical center and over 100 more at an adjacent minimum security satellite camp.

I'm going to share a bit of my journey with you and let you know more about my story. I will limit today's testimony to the realm of politics; there are other aspects of my awakening that will be reserved for other occasions. Those who know me well are understandably perplexed; how is it that a man who was once an Obama loyalist and an organizer who was intent on uncovering a new block of constituents for the Democratic party reversed course so radically? How can I go from espousing the virtues of turning Virginia blue to disavowing politics all together?

Let me start where my life in the political establishment began. It was only nine years ago - though it sure feels like a whole lifetime has passed by -that I signed on to the Obama campaign and made it my purpose to get "the first black president" elected. I spared no effort; though I drove myself into exhaustion and suffered personal losses, November 4th, 2008 was a day I thought I would be proud of forever. I traveled to more than 15 states and spent every waking moment for more than 8 months trying to figure out how to register more voters, raise funds and increase enthusiasm for the Obama campaign. Though I was a mere volunteer, my efforts were so noted by political staffers that I got invited to Chicago by the Obama campaign in December of 2008 for a brainstorming session to launch Organizing for America.

More than a fifth of UK workers are still earning below the so-called real living wage, meaning that an estimated 5.5 million employees are struggling to get out of poverty, according to a new report by KPMG.

Although the real living wage is a voluntary target set higher than the Government's mandatory living wage, around 3,600 employers have agreed to pay it, giving all workers over the age of 18 a paypacket worth £8.45 an hour, or £9.75 an hour in London.

But KMPG found that millions are still struggling to make ends meet in low-paid jobs, especially as the cost of living rises, with around 21pc of workers on a lower rate. The Government's national living wage, which replaced the minimum wage last year, is set at £7.50 for those aged 25 and over.

A Catholic nurse is suing Duke University Hospital, claiming that the university discriminated against her religious and pro-life beliefs by requiring her to assist in abortions.

Sara T. Pedro was told during her employee orientation that Duke University Hospital provides no exceptions to employees in its Emergency Department who don't want to participate in abortions. The lawsuit, filed by The Thomas More Law Center on Pedro's behalf, says that Duke's Emergency Department performs "a large number of abortions."

The lawsuit claims that Pedro faced retaliation and discrimination after she made a written request to be exempt from the pro-abortion policy.

The owner of the Marshalls, TJ Maxx, and HomeGoods chains has been getting some rave reviews of late, but the praise has nothing to do with bargain-priced clothing or housewares.

Framingham-based TJX Cos. is being praised for continuing to pay its employees in hurricane-battered Puerto Rico, even as its stores there remain closed six weeks after the devastating storm left residents and businesses without electricity and fresh water.

Over the last few weeks, the left has been a very happy bunch. With the 'Unite the Right' rally on August 12th in Charlottesville, they finally, finally, got that first little shred of concrete evidence (outside the online bubble of 4chan and The Daily Stormer) that some Trump supporters are white supremacists. No, not the ordinary, working class Middle-Americans who were caught in the slip-stream of the collective, months-long tantrum thrown by so-called 'progressives' when their preferred candidate lost the election. I mean an actual faction of self-admitted white nationalists, protesting (with a permit) the removal of a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee.

Can you imagine the elation of the left when, after hearing of the death of 32-year-old Heather Heyer, they realised they had actual people to direct their cries of "Nazi!" "White supremacist!" and "Fascist!" at? No longer are they hurling insults at the empty air, trying desperately to make everyone who disagrees with them into some sort of Hitler-clone. Instead, they have real-life Anglo-enthusiasts to validate their virtue signalling.

How thrilling for the left to be able to justifiably use those shiny new labels; after all, "racist" "bigot" and "sexist" are so 2016. In fact, the left is so thrilled to find this fraction of Trump supporters happy to call themselves white supremacists; they've gone on a Confederate statue trashing spree to celebrate.

In the wake of Charlottesville, numerous Confederate monuments around the USA have either been removed, considered for removal, or (in the Case of Durham, North Carolina) torn down by wailing social justice warriors. However, the debate over not just monuments, but also the display of the Confederate flag, predates the events of August 12. This movement is, of course, pushed largely by the Democrats, and has understandably gained more traction over the past couple of weeks. The left would put this newfound vigour down to eradicating 'hate' by erasing history, and thus engaging in the usual leftist pastime of throwing their toys out of the pram. Then again, the right would put it down to the left's penchant for opportunistic virtue signalling. However, I would like to posit a third option.

Now that most of the US has grudgingly adjusted their clocks to "fall back" one hour, a few state governments are moving to entirely eliminate the overwhelmingly unpopular custom of switching to Daylight Saving Time (DST) for half the year.

Maine and Massachusetts are debating an end to the observation of DST, in a move that would switch the two state's official time zones from Eastern to Atlantic, according to Yahoo.com.

A 13-year-old girl was named one of Hollywood's "sexiest" actresses in one magazine, and featured in a series of suggestive poses in another.

While she is only 13 years old, actress Millie Bobby Brown has become famous for her role in the Netflix hit Stranger Things, and she has also become Hollywood's latest attempt at normalizing sexual infatuation with children.

Brown was the only child featured in a line-up of 13 actors and actresses who "prove that Television has never been hotter" and "sexier" according to a story from W Magazine. The online excerpt features a quote from Brown in which she discusses how she was asked to change her appearance in order to play the role of "Eleven" on Stranger Things.

The avalanche of revelations about the perverted and predatory sexual underbelly of Hollywood and the entertainment industry is long overdue. It has always been an open secret of sorts, but the whole house is coming down right now as more people are suddenly feeling empowered to speak out, and the media is finally ready to listen and take seriously to the stories of victims.

But what if pedophilia and the sexual harassment of women in entertainment is only a symptom and not actually the disease?


Just below the surface, hidden in plain sight in Hollywood is the overwhelming influence of the occult and the esoteric schools of ancient black magic. It has always been present in this industry because those who seek power in our world have long recognized that television, film and music are the most efficient and important roadways into the public psyche and the collective conscience.

Just a little over a week after it said white girls were forbidden to wear Princess Moana costumes for Halloween, Cosmo managed to out-ridiculous itself by normalizing incest.

If you think Cosmo couldn't top its already off-the-charts insanity, then brace yourself, because things are going to get really gross... even by Cosmo standards.

The recent article titled "This Is What It's Like to Fall In Love With Your Brother," profiles the haunting tale of Melissa, who did not know she had a brother for 40 years until just recently. To make a long story short, when Melissa met her long-lost brother, named Brian, she felt immediate attraction to him and the two had sex after just one drink, even though both were married at the time.

Melissa maintains that she and her husband maintain an open relationship; Brian has since left his wife. Eventually, the two hope they can move in with each other and marry.
