Here is our analysis of what is an excellent video, for which we thank the San Leandro Police Department. The officer, failing to wait for backup, choose to “cowboy” the event. This is a piss poor cop but he is miles above police in the other shootings we have seen in recent years. The charges here are possibly a bit heavy depending on California’s sentencing on Murder 3. It is clear and should be to anyone seeing this that Taylor suffered from a psychiatric disorder. I also note that the police, after the shooting, made no attempt to render aid but […]

A crazy mask Karen went berserk in a Post Falls, Idaho Walmart over the weekend when she spotted customers without their faces covered.

Stop it!” the woman screamed as she punched the teen boy who was recording her with his cell phone. “You think this is cute not wearing a mask,” the obese man said. “Get a damn mask and put it on your face.” The teen boys showed incredible restraint and remained polite during the confrontation and assault.

Blue chip clients cut ties last month with the lobbying firm run by Trump confidant Matt Schlapp over his caustic comments about Black Lives Matter protests. But Schlapp’s firm also picked up a new client: the President of the United States. Trump’s reelection campaign paid Cove Strategies, Schlapp’s lobbying and public affairs shop, $43,567 for communications consulting in June, according to a Federal Election Commission filing on Monday. It was the first time the Trump campaign had paid Cove Strategies, and the first payment the firm has received from any federal political committee since 2012, when it got less than $300 […]
Even in a time of record unemployment, some of Dan’s colleagues at an Indiana Walmart have walked off the job. They aren’t quitting over fears of catching COVID-19, he explained. They’re quitting because of customers who become abusive when asked to wear face masks. “A lot of our people have been verbally harassed to the point of breaking down and just quitting,” Dan, who like other workers interviewed in this story used a pseudonym to avoid retaliation from his employer, told The Daily Beast. If anything, jobs like Dan’s are about to get even more complicated. On Monday, Walmart will begin […]

The U.S. Prosecutor’s Office of the Eastern District of Texas (EDTX) has always been known for their special investigative skills of uncovering major drug lords. In fact –they have been one of the leading U.S. Attorney’s office in the nation to carry out President Trump’s “Initiative to Stop Opioid Abuse” focusing their resources on the illegal prescribing and dispensing Opioid drugs by pharmacies and doctors. Their strategies focused on cracking down on the domestic and international drug supply chains. In 2018, Joe Brown, the U.S. attorney for EDTX, set an example of outstanding investigative work when they extradited defendants out of […]

In Chicago, Mayor Lori Lightfoot has been talking to these retailers and asking them not to leave the city.

Perhaps a few of you have seen the ad going around paid for by something called The Lincoln Project. The 60 second spot criticizes Trump for his administration’s response to the coronavirus, seemingly blaming Trump for the virus and the knee jerk reactions of governors across the country who have ordered shutdowns of their state’s businesses, wreaking havoc on the nation’s economy. The ad offers no constructive solution to the two primary concurrent problems. If Trump doesn’t shut down the economy, they blame him for virus deaths. If he shuts down the economy, they blame him for damage caused. Except […]
