Lunatics with Nazi flags driven away from TPUSA conference by attendees

nazi flags at TPUSA
Unhinged lunatics with Nazi flags and antisemitic signs tried to disrupt TPUSA's Student Action Summit in Tampa Florida on Saturday afternoon, but conservative attendees and press weren't having it.

Independent journalists Aldo Buttazzoni and Tayler Hansen confronted the masked-up psychopaths and challenged them to reveal themselves and their intentions.


Comment: It's a pretty obvious smear tactic that we've seen many times before. Unfortunately, it's a smear that works on the relatively gullible. How many Canadians believe the Trucker Convoy was made up of racists, misogynists and nazis?

Christopher Rufo is perhaps best known for exposing the excesses of Critical Race Theory and gender ideology that activist administrators and teachers are bringing into their classrooms and public school curricula.

On Wednesday, Rufo tweeted that he has obtained leaked documents from the Los Angeles Unified School District, outlining their new policies and programs incorporating gender ideology into classrooms year-round.

"I have obtained a trove of documents from the district's Human Relations, Diversity, and Equity department," said Rufo, that provide evidence of "an entire infrastructure to translate the basic tenets of academic Queer Theory into K-12 pedagogy."

Hunter Biden appears to have violated the same firearm crimes that have sentenced several individuals to years in prison.

There is evidence that Biden may have violated two crimes under 18 U.S. Code § 922, a law prohibiting an individual from making a "false or fictitious oral or written statement" or for an "unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance" to retrieve a firearm, according to the Legal Information Institute.

A 2021 Politico report said in 2018, Biden responded "no" to a question on the transaction record that asked "Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?" Delaware police also found a firearm thrown in the garbage by President Joe Biden's daughter-in-law, Hallie.

bbc doc unvaccinated hannah fry
Before this programme was screened on 20 July 2022 promotional material from the BBC and in newspaper articles such as this suggested it was going to be extremely biased and inaccurate.

Based on this publicity material we already wrote articles first criticizing the claim that only 8% of the UK adult population was unvaccinated and then highlighting the fact that the publicity material failed to reveal the blatant conflicts of interest of the key 'experts' used in the programme to convince the seven unvaccinated participants to get vaccinated.

Our pre-screening articles and tweets about the forthcoming programme were very widely read and one of the participants Nazarin contacted us to express her serious concerns about the way the programme was made - and how it might be edited - and to confirm that the participants were indeed not informed of the experts' conflicts of interest (this is covered well in this article by threadsirish). Her subsequent tweets, such as the following, made clear her extreme concerns about the programme even before it was screened:

Steve Bannon, ex-White House strategist and adviser to former President Donald Trump, was found guilty by a jury Friday of criminal contempt of Congress for refusing to appear before the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol.

Bannon was found guilty of two counts of criminal contempt — one for refusing to appear for a deposition before the panel and the other for refusing to produce requested documents. Each count carries a minimum potential sentence of 30 days and a maximum of one year in jail, as well as a fine of $100 to $1,000.

The jury deliberated for a little over two hours in federal court in Washington, D.C., before returning its verdict. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols set Oct. 21 as the date for Bannon's sentencing.

Trying to obtain Russian citizenship as a Ukrainian could soon become a criminal offense, the country's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories Irina Vereschuk warned on Friday.

In a Telegram post, Vereschuk said that the matter had previously been discussed during a closed interdepartmental meeting.

"Work on the draft law continues, there will be discussions, but the direction has been determined," the deputy prime minister said.

She admitted that there could be "a long and difficult discussion" about the legal aspects of obtaining a Russian passport, about human rights, and "the need to survive under occupation."

Entire police force in NC town resigns in protest of 'progressive' town manager

© Town of Kenly, N.C., FacebookKenly Town Manager Justine Jones (l.) just started last month, and Police Chief Josh Gibson (r.) and his entire force have quit, blaming her.
Kenly Police Chief Josh Gibson and all his full-time officers resigned on Wednesday. The town is left with three part-time officers to run the rest of the department, serving a population of about 2,000.

Kenly's town attorney Chip Hewett told WRAL News that the town would be holding an emergency meeting on Friday night at 7 p.m. to discuss how the town would be handling public safety.

"We just learned about this [Wednesday], it effects the entire police dept and staff members, we are looking at having an emergency special meeting to figure out how to move forward with it," Hewett said.

Even before the resignations, the police force was short-staffed, down from a norm of eight officers to five, Gibson said.

Comment: Fox News adds:
Police officers and other officials in the small town of Kenly have submitted mass-resignation letters citing stress, a hostile work environment and an inability to continue the department's long-term betterment projects.

Police leadership and active duty officers were joined in their resignation by other officials.

"I have truly enjoyed working for The Town the last four years. Due to the current situations and the stress in the work area lately, my main concern is my health, and right now I need to focus on my wellbeing. The work area is very hostile and I will not let myself be around that kind of atmosphere," wrote Christy Thomas, utility clerk for the town of Kenly.

Some outgoing government employees kept their messages curt and to the point — including Town Clerk Sharon Evans.

"I will be retiring sooner than I had planned. This is my two weeks notice as of today. I can no longer work under the stress," wrote Evans.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has called on President Joe Biden to provide him with the taxpayer money needed to house illegal aliens in hotels, though to be fair, he doesn't appear to have many other options available.

Thanks to New York State's "right to shelter" law, Adams must find housing for the influx of illegal aliens flooding into his city. The mayor, during a press conference Thursday, admitted:
"We are not allowed to say we don't have room. We're not allowed to say that. 'Right to shelter' means we have to keep expanding and be creative in our expansion. That means if we have to get hotel rooms, we get hotel rooms. If that means that we have to find other spaces, we'll find other spaces. There's no such thing as this state saying, 'We're turning you away.' We're going to have to keep expanding based on the needs, and we're going to have to keep finding the funding based on the needs."
He added that his administration has been "in constant contact" with the White House over the issue of money.
