Federal court struck down Trump's executive order on sanctuary cities.
A federal judge temporarily halted Donald J. Trump's executive order on sanctuary cities.
Trump's order was challenged by the city and county of San Francisco and Santa Clara County, California.
The two areas with a population of 1.3 million residents said that the president's order exceeds a city and county's enforcement of locality. The localities are saying, "we're not federal immigration agents."
This is a major setback to the Trump fuhrecy. His executive orders regarding immigration and the so-called Muslim ban were blocked in federal court.
U.S. District Judge William Orrick issued a nationwide preliminary injunction blocking the order's enforcement, effectively preventing the administration from pulling federal funds from the sanctuary jurisdictions that sured and others that may likewise feel their federal funding is at risk if they don't get along with the fuhrer.
This ruling could impact any attempts by Trump to strip localities of federal funding.
This makes another defeat for Trump. The fuhrer is reaching 100 days and yet no accomplishments other than stealing the Supreme Court seat from then president Barack Obama.
Cities that Trump claimed were sanctuary cities were San Francisco, New York City, Chicago, Milwaukee, Honolulu, New Orleans and Miami.
The Republicans are embracing alternative facts. They relish in this belief that the Democratic Party is the "Party of No."
After eight years of opposing about 95% of then President Barack Obama's agenda, the Republicans are now complaining about the Democrats refusal to get along with them.
Republicans have the House, Senate, and White House. They can't even get along with one another. A looming government shuts down is a coming. They want to pass a bill to fund the government but funding for the border wall is going to be added. Democrats oppose the bill and warn the Republicans to not go there.
The Republicans are feverishly trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act. The Republicans couldn't even muster enough of their own to get the bill on the floor. But who's gets the blame?
The Democrats.
Reality television finally made it to the White House.
Yeah, the party that is in the minority with 48 senators and 188 representatives. What can they do?
The Senate imposed the "simple" majority vote to get Donald J. Trump's nominees confirmed. The Democrats could oppose everyone and the Republicans will still get their candidates nominated.
The House tried to do budget reconciliations. The Republicans held the House for 7 years.
You remember then weeper John Boehner of Ohio, saying on the House floor, "Hell NO You Can't!"
I remember. The Republicans led us into a sequester, a government shutdown and delay in tax refunds to taxpayers. They accepted subsidies from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (the Stimulus) for funding towards their districts.
I remember Obama went to the Republican retreat to answer questions and mingle with them in order to get their support. The GOP delayed confirmations of nominees for Obama's cabinet, federal judges, and legislation.
I remember Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) saying to a forum that his single goal is to make sure that Barack Obama is a one term president.
I remember that McConnell, Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT), Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) all bemoaned the notion of having a sitting president nominate a Supreme Court justice during an election year. The Republicans took control of the Senate in 2015. Trump won and basically got his Court pick through deceptive messures.
The Republican Party can't govern even with a Republican leader.
And yes, the Republicans continue to obstruct agendas. Of course with Donald J. Trump in office, not so much. Even the ineptness is starting to piss off the party's biggest cheerleaders on the right. They warn Republicans that they could lose it all.
Why the delay?
You see this visual garbage the Republican National Committee placed on the week of Trump's first 100. They practically blame Democrats for the rough rollout of his agenda.
No major legislation other than the Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act of 2017 and the rollback of privacy on the internet. The rule with no title was enacted in early April.
There were only 15 laws Trump signed.
This is the lowest so far from any sitting leader.
He's so far is in the negative with his job approval and the Republican Party continues to burn away money on revising history.
Serena Williams keeps it classy when it comes to a former tennis star's racist remark about her pregnancy.
Serena Williams announced on social media that she is pregnant with her first child. Williams and her fiance Alexis Ohanian were caught off guard by former tennis star Ilie Nastase.
The comments were deemed offensive. And Williams wasn't going to allow this shit to go down without a response.
Nastase would make a snarky comment about the pregnancy. He said that their child is "chocolate with the milk."
A post shared by Serena Williams (@serenawilliams) on
"It disappoints me to know we live in a society where people like Ilie Nastase can make such racist comments," said Williams in her statement released on social media. "I have said it once and I'll say it again, this world has come so far but yet e have so much further to go. Yes, we have broken down so many barriers --- however there are a plethora more to go. This or anything else will not stop me from pouring love, light and positively into everything that I do. I will continue to take a lead and stand up for what's right."
Old fart snarked about Serena Williams' baby.
The tennis star will give birth to her child in the fall.
Serena kept is classy as always.
For the old fart....an investigation into his conduct.
The BBC reports that the International Tennis Federation (ITF) has launched an investigation into the comments made by 70-year old Nastase, Romania's Fed Cup captain, at a news conference before their tie with Great Britain in Constanta last week.
"I humbly thank the ITF for any consideration given to all the facts in this case. They have my full support," said Williams.
Our local congressman Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH) held a town hall in Enon, Ohio. I swear I wish I was there to serve him a question. I believe that public officials should make their town halls available for every constituent.
See most Americans don't know who their local politicians are.
The United States has some of the lowest figures in voting. Many Americans have such disdain for the political parties. The Republicans are favored negatively. The Democrats are favored negatively but not as much as the Republicans. The parties are too polarized by members who have no achievements other than appearing on television and radio to attack the current and former.
I don't like Donald J. Trump. I refused to acknowledge him as 45. I will still refer Barack Obama as a president. He will be regarded as former or then president. The same goes for George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter. They will have my respect and honor.
Trump. NO. NEVER. HELL NO.
He will be regarded as "leader", "fuhrer", and the former reality television star.
Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH) represents the Dayton metro area.
Davidson represents Troy, Tipp City, Huber Heights, Springfield, Piqua, Eaton, West Chester, Middletown, Fairfield, Greenville, Fairfield and Oxford. His district was once occupied by the former Weeper of the House, John Boehner.
Davidson is a part of the do-nothing Freedom Caucus. He along with Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Steve Chabot (R-OH) represent the Miami Valley.
These Republicans are coming from a region that is economically deprived of the necessities.
In the video, Davidson insults some of the constituents who had concerns about Trump, their district, the Affordable Care Act and the accountability of Congress.
Davidson was looking at his phone when some of the questions came up.
A few weeks ago, he had escort some of the people out of a town hall in Troy, Ohio.
Worthless lawmakers continue to get elected. We must change this. This goes for Republicans and Democrats alike.
Grand Rapids Police come under fire after their officers pulled their guns on five unarmed teens.
Grand Rapids Police are under fire for an incident that happened in March. The police department decided to release the footage from the encounter. Of course, to justify why they did what they did to innocent Black boys. From the view of an officer's body camera, the cop pulls up on five Black boys and orders them to the ground.
The boys ranged from age 12 to 14, were walking from the Salvation Army Kroc Center on Division Avenue after playing basketball when they were stopped by the law.
The law approached the teens with guns drawn, ordering them to ground, searching them and placing two of them in the hand bracelets. The cops said that they followed procedures by the book.
INFURIATING.
Grand Rapids cops point their guns at 5 young black boys, claiming they thought they were armed. They weren't. They are 12 y/o pic.twitter.com/FSnptb5eke
The teens were released to their parents and got a full explanation of why they approached them.
They claimed that someone spotted them with a gun.
They were trying to justify their detainment by getting the junk food media on their side.
This weekend, the department said they arrested individuals who were actually carrying firearms.
Local junk food media says that the police arrested a 12-year old, 14-year old and 16-year old accused of gun crimes. They are being held in juvie... They are innocent until proven guilty.
A report shows that the Grand Rapids Police have pulled over more minorities at an unjust rate.
The chief, David Rahinsky apologized, but said to the junk food media, the officers acted professionally and the police union defended the actions.
"The officers' response was measured, it was appropriate, it was professional in regards to responding to information about young people with a gun," Rahinsky said. "I appreciate that there's an emotional response to having seen that. If that's my child, my son, I would feel very similar.
Rahinsky: It wasn't your son. I bet your son is probably getting off a traffic ticket or probably committing crimes under your nose. I'm just saying. he wouldn't have faced a police officer with guns drawn at him.
"We have never, nor will we ever, fail in our duty to protect the public, given the information we are handed and the circumstances we find ourselves in," union leaders wrote in a statement.
Here's a question: If the teens were White, would the police had stopped them? I mean isn't Michigan an open carry state? Don't the NRA support the legal right to carry firearms in public. Or is that justified for White, Republican, white and rich men and boys!?
Grand Rapids is 189,000 residents and is surrounded by Interstate 96, Interstate 196, U.S. Highway 131 and the Paul B. Henry Freeway (M-6).
The second largest city in the state of Michigan is home to Rep. Justin Amash (R-MI). What is his opinion on the matter?
Of course, Michigan's Republican governor Rick Snyder and Sens. Gary Peters (D-MI) and Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) should be swamped with calls. What can they do in the wake of this controversy?
Sean "Softball" Hannity blast alt-right agitator after she accused him of sexually harassing her.
An alt-right agitator went on a Tulsa radio station to tell the nation that Sean "Softball" Hannity isn't the boy scout he claims himself to be.
This woman, Debbie Schlussel is a kookspiracy theorist and agent provocateur.
Schlussel was a contributor on the softball's program when he had the late Alan Colmes as his co-host. Somehow between 2009 and present, Schlussel and the softball became biter towards one another.
On the radio show, Schlussel described an encounter with the softball.
"He had some event at a bookstore where he signed his book for people standing in line. He asked me to come meet him at this book signing," Schlussel said.
"So I met him there and it was very awkward. He had me stand up there with him while he signed books and I felt very weird. These people don't know me and they didn't come for me to sign their books. So then I left to get ready for the show and he said, 'Why don't you come back with me to my hotel?' and I said no, I have to get ready for the show."
Schlussel, who is a conservative agitator and far right nutjob said that Fox News president Bill Shine allowed this shit to continue on. He did a "head fake" on her.
"Sean came up to me and said we're gonna double-team, which was a weird phrase to use, this Palestinian guy that I was against on the show," she said on the program.
"And then every time I tried to open my mouth and say something, they yelled at me and said, 'obey your host, you can't say anything or else we're gonna shut off your microphone,"
When all that went down, Schlussel was never booked on the program again.
"And then after that, I wasn't booked on a show again. And he called me and yelled at me," she said on the podcast. "I got a very weird feeling about the whole thing, and I kind of knew I wouldn't be back on his show."
When Schlussel dyed her hair red, the softball argued over it and said that she was a size 4 in pants. She believe that was creepy.
Schlussel created a blog and dubbed the softball "Vanity" and called him out for being a huckster.
She remembers the Freedom Concerts really well. She wrote on her blog that the concerts were a huge scam. She said that the booked guest, the softball and his family took most of the earnings and those military veterans and their children would net less than $2,000 in funds.
Lunatic conservative agitator claims Sean "Softball" Hannity has sexually harassed guest on his show.
The Freedom Alliance, the group that the softball used to be with often spent more on the luxuries of private jets, luxury SUVs, expensive bottle waters and hotels.
The softball released a statement and will address it on radio today.
"LET ME BE CLEAR ON THE COMMENTS ABOUT ME ON A RADIO SHOW THIS WEEK by this individual ARE 100% false and a complete fabrication.
This individual is a serial harasser who has been lying about me for well over a decade.
The individual has a history of making provably false statements against me in an effort to slander, smear and besmirch my reputation.
The individual has not just slandered me over the years but many people who this individual disagrees with.
This individual desperately seeks attention by any means necessary, including making unfounded personal attacks and using indefensible and outrageous political rhetoric
My patience with this individual is over. I have retained a team of some of the finest and toughest lawyers in the country who are now in the process of laying out the legal course of action we will be taking against this individual.
In this fiercely divided and vindictive political climate I will no longer allow slander and lies about me to go unchallenged, as I see a coordinated effort afoot to now silence those with conservative views. I will fight every single lie about me by all legal means available to me as an American.
It seems like the softball is on the defensive. He threatened, intimidated and undermine Schlussel.
On top of that he believes that this is "fake news" and "smear campaign" against him and conservatives.
Mind you that Schlussel is a conservative. Mind you that she has a credibility problem. She is considered a lunatic by many in the bubble.
Reminder: Sean Hannity had deep ties to Hal Turner.
Turner (Hal from Bergen, New Jersey) was a frequent caller to the right wing carnival. He would often say racially offensive things with the softball nodding away to it. Turner would eventually start his own show and expunge White extremism. Turner would later become a federal intern after he threatened to kill a federal judge. He cut a deal to spare a 20 year bid. Now Turner a federal discharge can't be on social media anymore but did tell the junk food media, he and the softball used to play together.
The softball pulled a firearm on Juan Williams. That was reported and he quickly shot that down.
The New York Times report that he is privately giving Trump advice on policy. He quickly went to social media to slam the Times for not confronting him on that.
Sean "Softball" Hannity is the official softball of the Donald J. Trump fuhrership.
However I take Schlussel with a grain of salt.
I hear that she walked back some of the accusations.
Old fart Bill O'Reilly is now doing podcasts. He is officially a washed up celebrity.
I guess if you're a die hard fan of the now disgraced conservative agitator, you can go to his website to sign up for his daily podcasts.
You guessed it! Bill O'Reilly is playing in the minor leagues now.
His podcast officially begins Monday at 7pm.
The former host of The O'Reilly Factor is trying to keep his audience feeding on his bullshit. The unceremonious firing really depressed him.
He was accused of sexually harassing numerous women.
21st Century Fox paid over $13 million to silence the women.
It lead to a massive boycott of O'Reilly's show. It lead to his suspension and eventual firing out the cannon. Yeah his vacation was short because the moment he found out he was done he cut that short.
Now we got to work on trying to hit these hatemongers in the wallet.
We will hit them in their wallets. Ann Coulter, Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson, Michelle Malkin, Mark Levin, The Drudge Report, The Gateway Pundit, Jeanine Pirro and Sean "Softball" Hannity might want to look over their shoulder.
We are not saying they shouldn't speak their minds. But all this lying, this hate and division isn't productive to the changing demographic.
So they better find another way of marketing conservatism.
The former child actress who played Joanie Cunningham on the hit ABC comedy Happy Days, passed away in Indiana. The only actress on the show to hit rock bottom literally.
Erin Moran lived in a trailer park and sometimes a motel in rural Indiana. She married a man who took her money and left her holding responsibility of a dying mother-in-law and his constant cheating.
Moran once had looks of an angel. All of that went down hill when she lit up a cigarette. She lit up a flank with those rocks. She guzzled a hard liquor and 12 pack daily. It may have caught up with her.
Moran got her break into stardom at age 14. She would appear in commercials before her big break. She played the lovable character on the sitcom.
Moran looked like a prostitute when she came up to the person filming her.
She would get a spin-off with Republican whacko-doodle Scott Baio. Joanie Loves Chachi only lasted two seasons with 17 episodes. It was a flop.
When she reached the bottom, she couldn't get a gig. She appeared on Celebrity Fit Club and did promos for MeTV. It was the last thing I could remember her in.
Mind you that she did have minor roles in television.
TMZ said that she was found unresponsive in Corydon, Indiana.
She had sued CBS Television Group for the royalties she was promised. She said that syndication and merchandise with her likeness didn't give a part of the cut.
By the time she got it, she blew it on stupid shit.
I hate to say this, but the tragedy of being a star has its downside.
I hope she finds peace but her life was a disaster and it was a matter of time before we would hear the news.
Geeked up. Protesters are demanding Trump ans Congress do something about climate change.
Today is Earth Day.
The planet's temperature is rising and its bringing great concern among the world leaders. All in exception is the inept Donald J. Trump, a climate change denier.
Today, there were protests across the country demanding Congress and Trump get on the ball and deal with climate change. The protesters are demanding that the inept lawmakers spare the science research. The cuts are coming to institutions that deal with climate change and the president is all in on it.
On Fox News, a Nebraska farmer was on for an interview with the conservative network. He was upset about Trump's executive order to green light the Keystone XL pipeline. The pipeline would carry dirty tar oil sands from Alberta, Canada to the state of Texas. The pipeline was delay and indefinitely shut down by then president Barack Obama. The people living near the pipeline and border wall might sue the Departments of State, Homeland Security and Agriculture.
These things are going to be built on private property.
Obama cited environmental concerns, the potential for short term jobs and foreign investment involved in the construction of the pipeline.
Trump dismissed the concerns and is willing to take private land from Americans who voted for him to have this stupid pipeline built. The border wall, the Keystone XL and Dakota Access Pipeline will disrupt properties and pose potential for hazardous material to leak into the groundwater.
Mind you a border wall and fence can be dug underneath and illegal crossings are down since Obama got into office.
And Mexico isn't paying for the wall. Canada will pay a third of the pipelines. China will invested in a majority of it.
Congress will return on Monday. They will have a few days to pass a bill to fund the government. If they refuse to do so, the government could shut down. The public is getting fed up with lawmakers taking too many vacations and not doing much work. MIND YOU THAT A REPUBLICAN-CONTROLLED CONGRESS IS STILL SLOW AT PASSING MEANINGFUL LEGISLATION.
Congress will also get the ball rolling on trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act. The law which has been active for more than eight years was a rally cry for Republicans. They were grandstanding this notion that repealing the law would benefit the working class. They still can't agree on which parts of the law they want repealed. The do-nothing Freedom Caucus signals a full repeal and they will not get on board with rank-and-file Republicans to save any part of the ACA.
The last time they tried to repeal the law, it was quickly pulled because they didn't have enough Republicans on board. Democrats will not support anything Trump pushes.
Trump gives a Purple Heart to an injured soldier.
Trump was in Washington this Saturday. He visited the Walter Reed Medical Center. He and first bimbo Melania Trump were there to give thanks to the injured troops serving in the endless Afghanistan war. The leader gave an injured soldier a Purple Heart.
Trump had did the White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday. He was nudged by Melania to place his hand over his heart. He also signed a boy's cap and then threw it into the crowd. The Easter Egg Roll was smaller compared then president Barack and first lady Michelle Obama.
The New England Patriots came to the White House to get praise from their biggest fan. Trump had a handful of staff, players, organizers Bill Belichick, and Robert Kraft there to celebrate their surprise victory over the Atlanta Falcons. The previous time the Patriots came to the White House most of the players, staff and organizers were there. Some of the players including Tom Brady took a knee and didn't visit the White House.
Gisele Bundchen went to social media to blast Trump before the Patriots were to show up. Aaron Hernandez, a former player hung himself in the iron college. His brain was donated to science.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and DNC chief Tom Perez did a unity tour. They could not agree on which candidate has the potential to beat Republicans. Sanders is pushing for the party to move to the left on many issues. Perez is cautious about losing the Democrats who still have tendencies to support Trump.
Next Saturday, it will be 100 days for Trump. He will skip the White House Correspondents Association Dinner. He will hold a rally in Pennsylvania.
This is the first time a sitting skipped an annual event that hosts the media and comedian.
One year ago, Prince the transitioner of rock, pop, R&B, groove and jazz passed away in his home.
Me and S.B talked about the tragic death of the iconic singer. The junk food media released the autopsy. He had died of opioid addiction. We are not sure if it was heroin but it did describe his personal assistants getting pain medication for him.
He had a medical emergency while on flight in February. After a few days he was treated and released. It was around April when the world found out that Prince had passed away.
This also makes it interesting. Charlie Murphy who had once had good company with Prince was laid to rest this week. Fellow comedians from all parts came to pay their respects.
Dave Chappelle, DL Hughley, George Lopez, Cedric The Entertainer, Chris Rock and I am guessing his brother Eddie Murphy were there for the burial.
Nonetheless, we lost two legends in the music and entertainment industry within April.
A tired and depressed Bill O'Reilly is spotted in New York buying orthopaedic shoes.
CAUTION: YOU ARE ABOUT TO ENTER THE UNEMPLOYMENT LINE!
Well maybe not. Bill O'Reilly can retire comfortably with the $25 million dollar payout he got from 21st Century Fox. He was unceremoniously fired out the cannon at Fox News. For over 20 years, the controversial conservative agitator was calling himself the "culture warrior" against the "secular PC" culture that ruins "traditional values."
He still might face lawsuits from the women, the family of George Tiller and of course the ridicule from all the people O'Reilly targeted throughout his 20 plus years on Fox News.
He picked fights with liberals, cable news competitors, rappers, entertainers, abortion doctors, and politicians.
The final nail in O'Reilly's coffin. They stripped his namesake from the title card.
In a statement to his supporters, the now fired Bill O'Reilly expresses gratitude to the fans and the folks at Fox News. He releases a public statement on his official website.
"Over the past 20 years at Fox News, I have been extremely proud to launch and lead one of the most successful news programs in history, which has consistently informed and entertained millions of Americans and significantly contributed to building Fox into the dominant news network in television. It is tremendously disheartening that we part ways due to completely unfounded claims. But that is the unfortunate reality many of us in the public eye must live with today. I will always look back on my time at Fox with great pride in the unprecedented success we achieved and with my deepest gratitude to all my dedicated viewers. I wish only the best for Fox News Channel."
Well here's a man who continues to blame the victim and believes that "the left" was responsible for his downfall. He and his former boss Roger Ailes flatly deny the accusations.
The New York Daily News got a picture of the old fart. He was spotted in his Long Island neighborhood shopping for some orthopedic shoes. That vacation in Italy was cut short when he got the call from the Murdochs telling him that his job is gone.
The woman who O'Reilly called "hot chocolate" speaks to The View.
O'Reilly became a focus of an investigation of sexual harassment. His company paid out $13 million to women who accused him of this. Sleeping Giants, The Color Of Change, National Organization of Women and Media Matters for America pushed an advertising boycott on the program.
By the time O'Reilly was going on "vacation" after he had lost over 80 sponsors to the program.
Also the woman who he called "Hot Chocolate" came forth to explain why she is relieved that O'Reilly is fired out the cannon.
Perquita Burgess and Lisa Bloom appear on The View to speak out on the firing.
By the way, there's no love lost over at Fox News. Besides the name being dropped to The Factor, Dana Perino and Greg Gutfeld conclude O'Reilly's program. Fox News didn't even allow O'Reilly to do a formal goodbye. Sean "Softball" Hannity who had a feud with O'Reilly said on radio, "he never met the guy" and never care much for his way of programming.
Tucker Carlson, the founder of The Daily Caller is now going to occupy the spot. He is notorious for saying sexist, racist, and ignorant things on television. He was fired out the cannon at CNN and MSNBC.
Carlson was promoted to replace Greta Van Susteren when she was fired out the cannon. He would replace Megyn Kelly when she decided to usurp Tamron Hall and Al Roker from their Today spot.
Carlson will have to prove to angered O'Reilly viewers that he can fill the void.
Many of O'Reilly's fans already blame the liberal media, Obama, and these "lying ass bitches" for getting him fired out the cannon. Mind you I've read some of this shit on Reddit.
So the primetime lineup will now be as followed.
5PM Eric Bolling
6PM Special Report with Bret Baier
7PM The First 100 Days with Martha MacCallum
8PM Tucker Carlson Tonight
9PM The Five (includes former O'Reilly producer Jesse Watters)
10PM Hannity
