As a veritable torrent of sexual abuse victims continues to come forward, Americans are quickly learning that Harvey Weinstein was just the tip of a depraved and disgusting iceberg that is Hollywood. After years of secrecy and gag orders, victims of Hollywood's sexual predators are setting a new norm of no longer remaining silent.

Just this month, we've seen Oscar-winning writer/director Paul Haggis come forward suggesting Hollywood is run by a massive pedophile ring. We've seen scores of actresses and actors come forward and actually pointing the finger at their abusers. And, as TFTP reported this week, we've seen at least one of these alleged child predators already lose their job as a result of their alleged abuse.

Quickly coming to the center of this controversy, and finally being taken seriously after years of being ridiculed for blowing the whistle on Hollywood pedophiles, Corey Feldman is speaking out-again.

Last week, Feldman told the world that he had a plan to take down Hollywood's elite child predators. And now, this week, he's revealed that plan. He's also revealed that he believes his life is in danger.


Comment: Feldman is looking to raise $10m for the film. So far he has just over $30k donated, with 500 backers. See also:

Trump moves to raise Social Security payments, media silent

Since he took office in January, President Trump has faced major issues ongoing in this country and is doing everything he can to solve this mess. More than 10 months into his presidency and he has already witnessed multiple natural disasters, the biggest mass shooting in modern US history, all while getting great opposition from every liberal in the country.

According to Fox Business, President Trump has upheld another one of his promises and is trying to get the monthly payments for all Social Security recipients increased, which is expected to be the largest Social Security increase in years. Still, it is only a $28 increase, which translates to an average of 2.2% increase, but considering the last increase of 0.3 percent, this was a move in the right direction.

By now, the average payment of the 61 million people collecting benefits, was is around $1,253. This 28 dollar increase may not seem like a huge increase now, but it is the first step to something much bigger.

Comment: Trump will get points for this one if he can show this segment of society a monetary difference in their favor. Costs go up, not down. Liberals will cry fowl.

Distortion of history: College snowflakes force change in curricula towards minority writers due to too many "old white male" authors

Lecturers have been told to include more black and ethnic minority authors in the Cambridge University English curriculum, after students complained of "institutional racism." Critics say excluding "old white male" authors will distort "historical truth."

The debate was instigated by Lola Olufemi, a women's officer for the Cambridge University Students' Union, who wrote an open letter, co-signed by around 150 other students, asking for the curriculum to be "decolonized" and broadened to include Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) authors.

"For too long, teaching English at Cambridge has encouraged a 'traditional' and 'canonical' approach that elevates white male authors at the expense of all others. What we can no longer ignore, however, is the fact that the curriculum, taken as a whole, risks perpetuating institutional racism," the letter states.

While Olufemi made no mention of actively excluding white male writers, the constraints of the course would mean that inclusion of new material by BME authors would inevitably mean the omission of existing texts.

Canadian immigrant found not guilty of raping wife - because he didn't know it was illegal

Multiculturalism without assimilation has serious implications for a society, particularly one which wishes to appease assaults on their native culture and values under the guise of tolerance. This takes shape often in the realm of women's rights.

In one such example of this, a Canada man, an immigrant from the Middle East, was found not guilty of raping his wife because he was under the impression that he could have sex with her whenever he wanted, even when it was nonconsensual.

Ontario Superior Court Justice Robert Smith acknowledged that numerous occasions of sexual intercourse between the couple were indeed nonconsensual, but said he could not convict the husband because of the lack of criminal intent, or mens rea.

"Marriage is not a shield for sexual assault," wrote Judge Smith in his decision. "However, the issue in this trial is whether, considering the whole of the evidence, the Crown has proven the allegations beyond a reasonable doubt."

According to the BBC, "Both the man and the wife testified that they thought a husband was legally entitled to have sex with his wife whenever he wanted."

Terrible idea: NYC mayor announces 15 public schools in Brooklyn will serve vegetarian meals only on Mondays

To save the planet, students at 15 public schools in Brooklyn will only be served vegetarian breakfast and lunch on Mondays, New York City's mayor has announced. The program is set to start in the spring of 2018.

"Cutting back a little on meat will help make our city healthier and our planet stronger for generations to come," Mayor Bill de Blasio said in a statement introducing the 'Meatless Mondays' nutrition program. The mayor also said he and his wife, Chirlane McCray, will also go meatless for all Monday meals, including those served to guests at Gracie Mansion, the mayor's residence.


Comment: The mayor is wrong. A vegetarian diet is not healthier:

Going vegetarian for one day a week could help reduce the carbon footprint and preserves resources like water, De Blasio argued, saying: "Approximately 1,840 gallons of water are needed to produce a single pound of beef, while only 39 gallons are needed to produce a pound of vegetables."

There are already five schools that have adopted the program. It appears to be limited to a small subset of students in New York City, which has over 1,700 public schools with 1.1 million students.

NYC Board of Election will acknowledge it broke law when it purged more than 200,000 voters from city rolls

New York City's Board of Elections will acknowledge it broke the law and be making serious changes in its practices, according to the proposed settlement of a legal fight over the purge of more than 200,000 voters from city rolls.

After many Brooklyn residents arrived at the polls during last year's presidential primary to learn they were deemed ineligible to vote, the good government group Common Cause New York filed suit. State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman and the Brooklyn U.S. Attorney's office joined the litigation.

But rather than slug it out in Brooklyn federal court, the sides have been working on a settlement for months.

Now, a proposed pact slated for filing Wednesday would mandate reforms in the city election agency.

Mother of French terrorist Mohammed Merah allegedly said "the prophet permits killing of Jewish children

Left: 8 y/o French Jewish girl Mirian Monsonego shot in the head by Mohammed Merah in 2012. Right: Mohammed Merah, murdered seven people before being killed in a stand-off with French Police.
In Paris, France, the trial against Abelkader Merah (35), the brother of Mohammed Merah, is entering its fourth week. Mohammed Merah, the 23-year-old gunman who killed seven people, including three Jewish children, a teacher and three paratroopers whom he shot in the back, was shot and killed by French police after a 32-hour stand-off in 2012. His brother, Abelkader, is on trial for complicity in the killings. Special attention has been given to his mother's, Zoulikha Aziri, testimony, which was given on 18 October.

According to France 24, Zoulikha Aziri struggled on Wednesday, not hesitating to aim accusations at her younger son, in a fierce, but rambling and implausible defence of her elder son. Her testimony provoked anger with the family of her sons' victims and incidents with the defence counsels. At the outset, she declared:
"Abdelkader has nothing to do with what has happened, what Mohammed did, it's very serious, but he is dead. (...) Abdelkader was normal, he didn't have problems. Mohammed was crazy (...) from when he was very small, he had problems. He said to me: 'I have a voice in my head.'"
Aziri continued to offer contradictory evidence, aimed at putting the blame on Mohammed, in an attempt to weaken the evidence against Abdelkader. This attempt was undermined however, by a relative of the Merah family saying on Tuesday, that Zoulikha Aziri had said after the attacks that she was proud of her son "bringing France to its knees."

Four Air Force members arrested for painting satanic symbols on 250-year-old South Carolina church

SC church vandalized air force members
Four young members of the Air Force have been arrested after authorities said they spray-painted satanic symbols on a 250-year-old South Carolina church that tends to draw people interested in ghost stories. Now they face charges that could put them in prison.

The four suspects were arrested late Thursday, less than a day after deputies put out surveillance photos of the vandalism at Salem Black River Presbyterian Church, Sumter County Sheriff's spokesman Ken Bell said.

Satanic symbols and phrases were spray-painted on the church's columns and doors on Sept. 29, causing about $3,000 in damage. The door to the church's sanctuary also was kicked in, but deputies don't think the suspects entered, Bell said.

Investigators aren't sure why the four airmen from nearby Shaw Air Force Base in Sumter decided to damage the church, which appears on the National Register of Historic Places. But Sheriff Anthony Dennis has said his department has had to deal with other problems caused by people who say the church is haunted.
