Leading media personalities and top Democratic officials have gone from saying there was no crisis at the southern border to saying there is one in just a few short months. Hosts on CNN and MSNBC like Joe Scarborough, Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, Nicolle Wallace and others went along with Democratic talking points earlier this year that the Trump administration had manufactured a crisis at the border to secure wall funding. Illegal crossings have increased since then, but the situation at the border has been untenable for years. Now with increased reporting on poor conditions at border detention facilities for children, the situation has again been deemed a "crisis." "He's lied so much about the realities of what he's calling a crisis," Cuomo said in January. Then this month, he told CNN's Anderson Cooper he hadn't seen a "crisis" as "openly understood and ignored" as the situation at the border. "Tonight, the president tries to sell a crisis that the facts tell us does not exist," MSNBC's Brian Williams said ahead of Trump's Oval Office address about the border in January. "This entire situation, which many have argued is a bona fide crisis at our southern border," Williams said three months later. "The big scam of the whole address was that there's a crisis. There's not a crisis," Wallace said on MSNBC following Trump's Oval Office speech. On Monday, Wallace read a New York Times article about the "stench" at a holding center and said it put into relief the "humanitarian crisis" underway. Scarborough accused then-Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen of "lying" about a "crisis on the southern border" in January, before blaming Trump for the "crisis" there last week. CNN's Erin Burnett used finger-quotes on the word "crisis" while previewing Trump's speech, saying he had to "prove that there is one." She referred to the situation as a "crisis" on her show OutFront on June 6. Lemon said in January the situation was a "manufactured crisis" meant to distract Americans from the Russia investigation. "It's a crisis, and we're going to drill down on some of the numbers from this humanitarian crisis," Lemon said on June 7. The same goes for leading Democrats like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.), Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.), and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D., Md.). Hoyer firmly said in February there was "no crisis at the border," but CNN's Manu Raju asked him this week if the emergency bill proposed by House Democratic leadership was enough to address the "crisis at the border." Hoyer didn't disagree with Raju's wording, calling it a good bill. Schumer and Pelosi both accused Trump of manufacturing a crisis in January, and Schumer said in a floor speech that month that "President Trump again tried to claim there was a crisis at the border. The fact is migrant crossings have been declining for nearly two decades." This month, Schumer is pushing legislation to "grapple with the real challenges at the border, and do more to reduce the number of migrants who feel they need to flee their countries in the first place." When challenged last month on her words about it being a manufactured crisis, Pelosi replied, "Well, let me just say this. We have never not said that there was a crisis. There is a humanitarian crisis at the border, and some of it provoked by the actions taken by the administration." Fucken pussies can't even deal with a President that's only been trying to take care of the border problem since the first day he was in office. Goc Damnit grow up and do your fucken job Oh they are doing their job. Illegals will become legal or their children will and vote D. |

The question is really very simple:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif, refused to say this week if she agrees with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's, D-N.Y., comparison of detention facilities at the southern border to Nazi concentration camps.
Ocasio-Cortez faced backlash from within her own party after comparing the processing of illegal immigrants to Jews in concentration camps earlier this month and even drew a video response from two Holocaust survivors who deemed her comments to be ignorant and personally offensive.
Nicholas Ballasy, a Washington D.C.-based video journalist, approached Pelosi Tuesday and asked if she agrees with the freshman's assessment of the border crisis. Pelosi rushed past Ballasy and dodged the question entirely.
"We have a bill on the floor that's going to be -- passing a bill for the children," she replied. "I hope you would focus on that. Thank you."

Will the so called media ask the DNC if they will label this man a Nazi?
The Dalai Lama has claimed that Europe could become 'Muslim or African' if refugees who have been taken in are not then sent back to their home countries.
The Buddhist spiritual leader, who has been living as a refugee in India since fleeing Tibet in 1959, said only a 'limited number' of migrants should be allowed to remain.
During an interview with the BBC, the Dalai Lama added that refugees who have fled to Europe should be given skills before being returned.
He said Europe was under an obligation to take in those who needed help, but ultimately they should be returned to their homelands.
When asked what should happen to those who want to stay in their adopted countries, he replied: 'A limited number is OK, but the whole of Europe [will] eventually become Muslim country, African country - impossible.'
It is not the first time the monk has made such comments. In a speech last year in Malmo, Sweden, the Tibetan Buddhist said refugees should return to help rebuilt their own countries.
He said: 'Receive them [migrants], help them, educate them, but ultimately they should develop their own country. I think Europe belongs to the Europeans.'

The so called community: A Wisconsin man allegedly punched and killed his 5-year-old son after he got angry the child had eaten his Father's Day cake, according to prosecutors. Travis Stackhouse told police he punched the boy in the stomach and hit him in the face Friday because he was "upset that others were eating" his Father's Day cake, a criminal complaint stated. The criminal complaint obtained by FOX6 stated the child sustained bruising to both eyes, a cut to his lip and a laceration to his sternum. Stackhouse, 29, initially told police he saw his son “somersaulting down the stairwell," but the boy did not appear to be injured When paramedics were called on Saturday around 2 a.m., paramedics didn't believe the injuries were consistent with a fall, and the boy's 6-year-old brother told police he did not fall down the stairs. An autopsy revealed the child suffered blunt force trauma to the abdomen, and his death was ruled a homicide. When police interviewed Stackhouse, he told police his girlfriend often warned him "not to hit the children so hard," according to the complaint.  |

President Trump called for delaying the 2020 census after the Supreme Court blocked the Commerce Department from adding a citizenship question and asked the agency for a further explanation why it should be included.
”I have asked the lawyers if they can delay the Census, no matter how long, until the United States Supreme Court is given additional information from which it can make a final and decisive decision on this very critical matter,” the president tweeted Thursday from Japan where he’s attending the G-20 session over the next couple of days.
”Seems totally ridiculous that our government, and indeed Country, cannot ask a basic question of Citizenship in a very expensive, detailed and important Census, in this case for 2020,” he said in the posting. “Can anyone really believe that as a great Country, we are not able the ask whether or not someone is a Citizen. Only in America!”
The court ruled against allowing the Commerce Department, which oversees the census, to include the question after doubting Secretary Wilbur Ross’ reasoning, saying they found it “contrived.”
“We cannot ignore the disconnect between the decision made [to include the citizenship question] and the explanation given” by the Trump administration that it was necessary for enforcement of the Voting Rights Act, Chief Justice John Roberts, who sided with the four liberal justices, wrote in the majority opinion.
“Several points, taken together, reveal a significant mismatch between the Secretary’s decision and the rationale he provided,” said the decision released on the last day of the court’s current term.
Ross has said that he moved to add the question on a request from the Justice Department so they could enforce the Voting Rights Act and protect the rights of minority voters.
But Roberts pointed out that recent evidence showed Ross began considering the question shortly after his appointment in 2017 and never suggested it was for the Justice Department.
“Unlike a typical case in which an agency may have both stated and unstated reasons for a decision, here the VRA enforcement rationale – the sole stated reason – seems to have been contrived,” the decision said. “The explanation provided here was more of a distraction.”

Several years ago, a famous politician delivered a message to Central American families: "Do not send your children to the borders ... If they do make it, they’ll get sent back."
It wasn't Mitch McConnell. It wasn't Donald Trump.
This was President Obama, in 2014. The warning was among numerous tough statements the Democratic president made as he sought to stem the flow of illegal immigration across the U.S.-Mexico border.

Another road rage incident. So two women get into an argument. One woman has kids in her car and notices the other woman has a gun. The woman with the gun is calling 911 and tell the police she has a gun and the other woman is getting out of the car and approaching her. The woman that gets out of the car claims she saw the gun and got out to protect her children. Does anyone believe this?
A North Carolina school district is investigating after a teacher allegedly pulled out a gun during a possible road rage incident at a McDonald’s drive-thru.
According to the Morganton Department of Public Safety, an unidentified Burke County Public Schools elementary teacher was apparently cut off at a drive-thru in Morganton, N.C. on Monday.
After the two drivers got into a heated argument following the incident, the teacher reportedly called authorities and pulled out her gun when the other female driver left her vehicle and began walking toward her car.
While on the phone with emergency operators, the teacher said she placed her firearm on her car dashboard after feeling threatened by the other driver as she approached her car, ABC 11 reported.
"So all I did was look at her when she proceeds to jump out of her car, come at my car cussing me, threatening me," the unidentified teacher said in the call, according to ABC11. "I've got a concealed carry...so I felt threatened."
However, the other driver, Zahra Jolicouer, challenged the teacher’s account. Jolicouer told Charlotte news station WSOC-TV the gun was already out before she exited her vehicle. She says she left the car and approached the teacher to protect her children.
“I look over to this woman and she’s waving this gun like so in the direction of my vehicle where I have three toddler children,” the mother told the news station.
While concealed carry is legal in North Carolina, the owner must have a permit and complete a state-approved firearms training course. Whether the teacher had the necessary permit and training is unclear.
After Burke County Public Schools was notified of the situation, the district’s human resource department launched an investigation into the matter.
“We take concerns involving our employees very seriously. Our Human Resources department is looking into the situation, but because it involves an employee, it is a confidential employee matter,” reads a statement obtained by Yahoo Lifestyle from Burke County Public Schools.
The Morganton Department of Public Safety told Yahoo Lifestyle that at this time, no criminal charges have been filed against either driver.

You cant make this shit up:
MIAMI (AP) — New York City mayor and presidential candidate Bill de Blasio shouted a Spanish slogan associated with Cuba’s Communist revolution at a rally Thursday, drawing criticism in a city heavily influenced by exiles who fled Fidel Castro’s rule.
He later apologized on Twitter, saying he didn’t understand the history and significance of the phrase “Hasta la Victoria, siempre!”
Fresh from his appearance late Wednesday in a Democratic debate in which candidates pointedly spoke Spanish to appeal to Hispanic voters, de Blasio went to Miami International Airport to join cargo workers in the heavily Hispanic city. They are striking over what they call appalling working conditions.
De Blasio said he would stand by the workers “every step of the way.” He also shouted “Hasta la Victoria, siempre!” __ or “Until victory, always” __ a phrase most associated with revolutionary leader Che Guevara. It also became a rallying cry for Castro.

According to at least one NBA player the NBA has a problem with light skinned blacks. Will the so called media look into this?
Steph Curry has won three NBA titles, two NBA MVP awards (one unanimous) and almost is universally regarded as the best shooter in the history of the game.
Despite all of that, the Warriors star still doesn't get the respect he deserves from other players and media members alike.
During the NBA Finals, Andre Iguodala told reporters that he will "do whatever it takes to protect" Steph's legacy, and help him get the respect he should already have around the league.
So what's the deal with all the Steph hate?
Former Warrior Matt Barnes went on ESPN's "The Jump" on Thursday and tried to explain why he believes some players dislike Curry.
"I think, he came in, he's the golden boy," Barnes said. "He came in and destroyed record books, won championships, beat LeBron -- he's done a lot of things that probably angered other players and other fans. That's why I don't think he gets the respect he deserves.
"He's obviously the greatest shooter to ever play the game and I can see people being bitter from that. Not to mention the whole light skinned thing, and people have problems with that. Like I said, he's a perfect example of what the NBA needs to be represented as and people don't like that either. Most of the time when people are so good or something's so perfect, people don't like that and that's exactly what you get with Steph."

Will the so called media cover this one?
The Sergeants Benevolent Association (SBA) attacked New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio on Twitter on Thursday, saying the 2020 candidate is "full of sh--" after he tweeted his condolences over the death of an officer on Long Island, and calling him out for comments made during Wednesday night's Democratic presidential debate.
An off-duty Bronx police officer committed suicide in his home Thursday, the fourth to do so this month. De Blasio had this to say via Twitter following the news: "We're devastated by the news out of the NYPD this morning. An officer took his own life -- one of four in recent weeks. The job of protecting this city demands so much from the officers who serve. Our city is here for them."
The SBA responded to the tweet with its own: "Your full of sh--! You bashed every cop in the country last night in the DNC debate. You use cops for your own gain. Truth is you could care less about cops, so save the sympathy card for the clowns who believe your cr--."

Should you need proof before throwing out an accusation like this?
Former President Jimmy Carter questioned Friday whether President Trump legitimately won the 2016 election over Hillary Clinton, arguing Trump is only in office because "the Russians interfered."
The 94-year-old Democrat was speaking at a Virginia forum moderated by presidential biographer Jon Meacham, who asked how the U.S. should "deal with Russia" interfering in the country's ability to have "free and fair elections."
Carter answered by calling on Trump to acknowledge the interference and "condemn it"
"I think a full investigation would show that Trump didn’t actually win the election in 2016. He lost the election, and he was put into office because the Russians interfered on his behalf," he said at the Carter Center event.

Ha ha ha!
MSNBC host Joe Scarborough called the second night of the first 2020 Democratic debates a “disaster for the Democratic Party” and said that he hopes voters were not watching the face-off, which aired on his network.
"With apologies to our friends and watching, last night was a disaster for the Democratic Party," Scarborough said Friday on "Morning Joe." "My only hope is people were not watching and I will tell you why."
He went on to jab the candidates for criticizing each other instead of focusing their ire on President Trump.
“So they’re lined up in trench warfare, ready to get out of the trenches and charge Donald Trump. Instead, they all turn their guns on each other and shoot each other, and everybody is yelling at each other all night,” Scarborough said Friday morning.
“If you’re an American and this is your introduction to these candidates and the Democratic Party, and all you see are 12 people yelling at each other, trying to interrupt each other, insulting each other, you’re like, ‘You know what. I thought Donald Trump was a clown show. I’m changing the channel.'”

Former President Jimmy Carter questioned Friday whether President Trump legitimately won the 2016 election over Hillary Clinton, arguing Trump is only in office because "the Russians interfered." The 94-year-old Democrat was speaking at a Virginia forum moderated by presidential biographer Jon Meacham, who asked how the U.S. should "deal with Russia" interfering in the country's ability to have "free and fair elections." Carter answered by calling on Trump to acknowledge the interference and "condemn it" "I think a full investigation would show that Trump didn’t actually win the election in 2016. He lost the election, and he was put into office because the Russians interfered on his behalf," he said at the Carter Center event. |

Ha ha ha! MSNBC host Joe Scarborough called the second night of the first 2020 Democratic debates a “disaster for the Democratic Party” and said that he hopes voters were not watching the face-off, which aired on his network. "With apologies to our friends and watching, last night was a disaster for the Democratic Party," Scarborough said Friday on "Morning Joe." "My only hope is people were not watching and I will tell you why." He went on to jab the candidates for criticizing each other instead of focusing their ire on President Trump. “So they’re lined up in trench warfare, ready to get out of the trenches and charge Donald Trump. Instead, they all turn their guns on each other and shoot each other, and everybody is yelling at each other all night,” Scarborough said Friday morning. “If you’re an American and this is your introduction to these candidates and the Democratic Party, and all you see are 12 people yelling at each other, trying to interrupt each other, insulting each other, you’re like, ‘You know what. I thought Donald Trump was a clown show. I’m changing the channel.'” It was a shitshow. Kamala Harris called Biden a racist and Salwall was his usual lost in the woods self |

The so called community
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Court transcripts unsealed Thursday show that Nipsey Hussle and the man charged with killing him talked about "snitching" shortly before the rapper was shot, a conversation prosecutors said was the motive for the shooting.
In the grand jury transcripts, which provide the first glimpse of prosecutors' case against Eric R. Holder, Hussle's friend Herman Douglas testified about a conversation he overheard between the rapper and Holder. Douglas said he heard Hussle tell Holder there were rumors he had been talking to authorities about the Rollin' 60s gang, and that police documents or court records showed it.
"You need to address it," Douglas remembers Hussle saying in a conversation outside The Marathon, the rapper's South Los Angeles clothing store where he was shot minutes later. "You know, basically telling the guy you need to be careful, you know, because people got some paperwork on you.

 The so called community living up to their reputation: Police have charged a man with aggravated murder in the "tragic and horrific" killing of missing University of Utah student Mackenzie Lueck, officials announced Friday. The suspect, identified as 31-year-old Ayoola Ajayi, was taken into custody Friday morning after an investigation uncovered a fresh dig area, charred female human tissue and items belonging to the missing student in the backyard of his Salt Lake City home, police said. His neighbors, they added, had informed detectives they noticed Ajayi burning something with the help of gasoline around June 17, when Lueck was last seen. “After an exhaustive week of investigation, we are filing charges of aggravated murder, aggravated kidnapping, obstruction of justice and desecration of a body in the homicide of Mackenzie Lueck," Salt Lake City Police Chief Mike Brown told reporters. "I will not be saying the killer’s name again," he added, noting that the crimes were "tragic and horrific". |
