Leftist agitator on MSNBC starts a feud with Vice President Kamala Harris and her supporters known as the #KHive. You are aware of the online trolls who support Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Bernie Sanders, Washed Up 45 and numerous other celebrities. They have a vicious support of a celebrity. Unwarranted criticism will result in relentless trolling.
The vice president has a fan base. The hashtag is also a term which is always pronounced and occasionally transcribed as KHive, and refers to the wider online community that is not formally affiliated with her campaign or office. The community formed prior to and during her 2020 presidential campaign as an effort to defend Harris from racist and sexist attacks and misinformation. The movement has been cited as an example of social media fandom or stan culture.
It’s just gibberish. If you think Biden is well, you’re lying to yourself. And shame on those Democrats who have endorsed/campaigned for this guy knowing full well he’s in full sunset mode in front of our eyes - especially the likes of Booker who themselves pointed it out before. https://t.co/LCpmpHdRze

She is the first African American and Asian American woman to be Vice President of the United States. She is relentlessly attacked by the far right and assholes like this guy. Leftists are not allies of Democrats.
Mehdi Hasan has a show on MSNBC Sunday nights and on online streaming service Peacock. It pretty much is a snore fest for me. I normally change the channel whenever he comes on.
Hasan, a critic of President Joe Biden often invites leftists on his program to trash the policies and the vice president.
The KHive fiercely defends her and Biden.
This tweet here even attracted perennial loser Nina Turner.
Turner lost twice to Rep. Shontel Brown (D-OH). Turner ran a tone deaf campaign. From baseless accusations against Brown, Turner was hoping to make Cleveland constituents see her as a corrupt figure. It backfired badly.
The online leftists who were driving these conspiracy theories and childish name calling turned off Black voters.
Leftists are the noise.
The fact that Turner never mentioned roads, food deserts, Dead Man's Curve (Interstate 90), infrastructure repairs on the Ohio State Route 8 viaduct, reforesting Akron Innerbelt Highway, expanding the RTA line into the southern tier of Cuyahoga County, ending the COVID-19 pandemic, jobs, voting rights and working with Biden.
All she wanted to do is trash Democrats, promote Medicare for All, call her opponent evil and being funded by corporations. Turner and her insufferable army of trolls kept labeling her opponent as being "bought and paid for." And on top of that she was bragging about millionaires funding her campaign but complained when Brown got her share of the millionaires.
Turner wanted to be the next Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO). Sitting around doing activism and not passing one bill while in office.
— Rep. Shontel Brown (@RepShontelBrown) July 7, 2022
Comparing the Democratic presidential nominee to a bowl of shit was one of the main reasons to why she lost.
She also ignored the grassroots aspect of why Brown won. The lawmaker said it best: "Politics is local and I am as local as it comes." So all the noise about "dark money," "colorism" and "establishment" were also triggers. Calling Black voters the "establishment" was one of the dumbest things Turner ran on.
Mehdi Hasan's show is low ratings for a reason. Many are not hip to listening to noise.
That's why its important to keep focus on protecting democracy from these extremist in Washington, DC and on cable news.
Fox was trying to bait U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg with a tweet from his husband Chasten. The secretary went directly to the point and tossed Washed Up 45's illegal attempt to undermine democracy into the mix.
The folks at Fox are working overtime to destroy President Joe Biden.
Sounds like he just wanted some privacy to make his own dining decisions. https://t.co/pAUiYqxIHT
This is the latest pivot from mass shootings, the overturning of Roe v. Wade and lower gas prices. As the country is moving past the coronavirus, the price of fuel went up during the illegal war Russia declared on Ukraine. Fox was literally beating this talking point about how Biden ain't doing much to stop these issues. Now gas prices are falling, demand for products is decreasing and a good jobs report has sparked Fox to worry about the Supreme Court's far right justices.
Karen Kavanaugh was forced out of his dinner by peaceful protests in Washington, DC.
Biden signed a bill into law that gives federal judges more protection. Kavanaugh, one of the most controversial justices is accused of sexual abuse. He sided with the far right's Court's decision to overturn a settled law.
He along with Idiot Karen Barrett, Karen Gorsuch, Karen Thomas, Karen Alito and Chief Justice Karen Roberts took away women's rights, doctor's professional duty to health and privacy. With Roe v. Wade overturned, the Midterms are now a toss up.
Enthusiasm could help Democrats retain the House and Senate. Republicans emboldened by culture wars, Biden's agenda and refusing to concede the results of the 2020 election will be their enthusiasm.
Morton's The Steakhouse faces more heat for criticizing peaceful protests.
On Fox News Sunday, the Karen asked Buttigieg about his husband's tweet sarcastically dissing Kavanaugh.
"When public officials go into public life, we should expect two things. One, you should always be free from violence, harassment, and intimidation. And two, you're never going to be free from criticism or peaceful protests, people exercising their rights," Buttigieg said during an appearance on Fox News Sunday. "Protesters are upset because a right, an important right that the majority of Americans support, was taken away."
Pete Buttigieg just gave a masterclass on owning the conversation on Fox News. pic.twitter.com/u1lO5NVYkI
That pretty much is how Democrats see it. You brought on yourself. Expect more protests in the wake of these radical Supreme Court decisions. Be lucky they aren't threatening to kill you or overthrow democracy.
During his interview on Sunday, Buttigieg insisted that he would have no problem if the same situation had happened to him while dining.
"I can't even tell you the number of spaces, venues, and scenarios where I’ve been protested. And the bottom line is this: Any public figure should always, always be free from violence, intimidation, and harassment but should never be free from criticism or people exercising their First Amendment rights," Buttigieg said.
Believe me, Buttigieg has been harassed by anti-LGBTQ protesters, environmentalists and leftists who claim he looks like a rat. Buttigieg, a former South Bend, Indiana mayor is an active military member. Buttigieg married educator Chasten Buttigieg (nee Glazmen) and they have two children.
If we keep shutting them down with facts, legal retorts and keep reminding voters that Biden is there to be "boring" and not a "Democratic version of Washed Up 45" we will survive the noise.
Cops are giving more ways to provoke unlawful arrests.
Well let the Supreme Court does rule in favor of Arizona, it will be illegal to film public servants like the police. Arizona governor Karen Ducey has signed into law a bill that requires individuals to stay back 8 ft when they are recording law enforcement.
Now people can be criminally charged with interfering with police duty if they film. So that means if police officers commit violent acts against arrested individuals or immigrants, you got at least be as far as a balcony to record the encounter.
Almost certainly this will be challenged in state court and then federal court.
And as soon as it arrives to the Supreme Court, the 6-3 decision will uproot freedom of the press, freedom of speech, unlawful detainment, and police liability.
Under the new law, it is a misdemeanor if someone keeps recording, after getting a verbal warning to stop. There are, however, some exceptions to the law, including if the person recording is the one being questioned by police.
While supporters say the law is meant to protect law enforcement from harm or distraction, critics say the law is unconstitutional, and does nothing to enhance transparency.
The original proposal from Republican state lawmaker Karen Kavanagh made it illegal to record within 15 feet of an officer interacting with someone unless the officer gave permission. The revised bill was approved on a 31-28 party-line vote Feb. 23 and lowered the distance to 8 feet.
It also now allows someone who is in a car stopped by police or is being questioned to tape the encounter and limits the scope of the types of police actions that trigger the law to only those that are possibly dangerous.
Kavanagh said he made the changes to address constitutional issues. He said the new 8-foot limit was based on a U.S. Supreme Court decision in a case involving abortion protesters.
Democratic Minority Leader Reginald Bolding said that the measure is the wrong way to boost transparency and ease the perception in minority communities that they are not safe from police misconduct.
"One way to not do that is telling them that they cannot use their cellphones or do any type of recording unless it’s within a specific set of guidelines," Bolding said during a vote back in February.
Media groups including The Associated Press said the measure raises serious constitutional issues. They signed onto a letter from the National Press Photographers Association in opposition to the bill. Letting an officer decide on the spot what First Amendment-protected activity should be allowed would be problematic in many situations, the letter said.
Kavanagh’s bill makes a violation a petty offense, the lowest-level Arizona crime that can bring a fine but no jail time. Refusing to stop recording when an officer orders it would be a low-level misdemeanor subject to a 30-day jail sentence.
After the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the six justices are no longer enjoying the privileges of being a judicial celebrity. The far right is outraged over Supreme Court associate Justice Karen Kavanaugh being harassed at a Washington, DC elite steakhouse. The justice and his wife had to flee the establishment after a peaceful protest interrupted his dinner. Fox commentator Karen Doocy was badgering White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over this.
When the court overturned Roe v. Wade it rocked the United States. It ended the privacy of women and their doctors. OBGYN doctors who perform termination are now at risk of being imprisoned because of these draconian states and their stupid culture wars. The decision was a win for white nationalism and Christian extremism.
Women who are now forced to give birth to their children if they were raped. Girls who are raped or impregnated by incest are forced to give birth to their children. Trans men are forced to give birth to their children as well. Almost 30 states have statewide bans on abortion.
Republicans are upset at President Joe Biden over the fact that he won't outright condemn the actions that put the Supreme Court Justices' lives in danger.
Didn't the president sign into law requiring more protection for the justices?
The Doocy press White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the far right Supreme Court justices' safety.
Didn't the President also formally say that he doesn't support any intimidation or violent threats against any federal judge?
Is this the new way of pivoting from the mass shootings in America?
Or is this just Fox being Fox?
What gets me riled up about the Republican Party in the white nationalists that run in that party, is the very fact that they claim there for freedom only if it applies to their extreme views. They're upset over women and men protesting Supreme Court Justice in the public place.
They want to ban people from protesting at Supreme Court Justice houses and want to roll back more freedoms when it comes to women's rights, civil rights, LGBTQ rights and voter rights. And yet they're upset over a fucking justice not being able to eat a damn steak.
I believe Kavanaugh brought it on himself as well as Idiot Karen Barrett, Karen Alito, Coon Thomas, Karen Gorsuch, and Chief Justice Karen Roberts.
Yesterday, the president signed an executive order outlining all he can do to prevent States from criminally charging women who travel across state lines to have an abortion.
Speaking from the Roosevelt Room of the White House alongside Vice President Kamala Harris and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, Biden dec
Protests around Coney Barrett's home.
ried the court's decision two weeks ago as "extreme" and "totally wrong."
The president also urged women, specifically, to practice their "political power" by showing up to vote in record numbers this November, stating it's the "fastest way" to reverse the court's ruling by giving congressional Democrats the majorities they need to the codify abortion rights into federal law.
"This isn't some imagined horror," Biden said. "It is already happening. Just last week, it was reported that a 10-year-old girl was a rape victim -- 10 years old -- and she was forced to have to travel out of state to Indiana to seek to terminate the pregnancy and maybe save her life."
"Imagine being that little girl," he continued. "I'm serious, just imagine being that little girl."
He urged voters to make a decision on whether they care about women's rights or Washed Up 45's and Republican extremism.
Biden is also ordering the Department of Health and Human Services to take "additional action to protect and expand" access to medication abortion, emergency contraception and IUDs.
The agency is instructed to increase outreach and public education efforts regarding access to reproductive health care services -- abortion included -- to get reliable information to the public.
Biden signs an executive order to prevent Republicans from prosecuting women seeking abortions.
Patient privacy is another part of Biden's order, which takes additional measures to address the transfer and sale of sensitive health-related data, combat digital surveillance related to reproductive health care services and protects people from fraudulent and deceptive practices.
Last week, Democratic governors urged Biden to use federal facilities and land for abortion services.
His order largely finalizes what has already been announced by the administration -- including instructions to the Justice Department to make sure women can travel out-of-state for abortion care.
The order addresses the elevated risks for patients, providers and clinics, which includes efforts to protect mobile clinics that have been deployed to state borders to offer care for out-of-state patients.
Biden's action, the White House said, directs Attorney General Merrick Garland and the White House counsel to convene volunteer lawyers and organizations to "encourage robust legal representation of patients, providers, and third parties lawfully seeking or offering reproductive health care services throughout the country."
Biden has also said he'll provide leave for federal workers traveling for medical care, which could set an example for private companies to do the same.
It appears that Elon Musk was trolling us. The billionaire douchebag is not interested in purchasing Twitter. Matter of fact, he better be worrying if top executives don't strip him of his leadership and force him out of Tesla and SpaceX.
Musk's lawyers said Twitter had failed or refused to respond to multiple requests for information on fake or spam accounts on the platform, which is fundamental to the company's business performance.
"Twitter is in material breach of multiple provisions of that Agreement, appears to have made false and misleading representations upon which Mr. Musk relied when entering into the Merger Agreement," the filing said.
It was revealed that he slept with a top executive amd she gave birth to twins.
He allegedly has 10 to 15 children.
Twitter is threatening to sue Musk after he literally stunted on television he was going to purchase the social media for $44 billion. Almost immediately after he made his decision, the far right was cheering it.
They believed the troll would reinstate their hateful asses back to harass, intimidate, spread violence amd encourage violence. Washed Up 45, getting tired of Truth Social was hoping to make a grand return to Twitter because Musk signalled he would allow the former president back.
New Coke and MySpace being bought by Rupert Murdoch comes to mind.
Twitter had laid off hundreds of workers because of this pending deal. Shareholders are literally cashing in on this and they are not willing to let this troll slide.
Tesla executives saw the writing on the wall. They believe Musk is loosing his damn mind and is placing the company in danger.
Musk is a conspiracy theorist, potential sexual predator and one of the richest men in the world. He recently surpassed Amazon chairman Jeff Bezos as the No. 1 richest.
But his string of scandals, revelations of secret children, payoffs for sexual harassment towards women and spreading misinformation about COVID has likely doomed the deal.
He can't escape this deal without losing at least $20 billion. Cause he negotiate a deal where he can't just walk away. He already lost $1 billion by even mentioning he is backing out.
Twitter’s board chair Bret Taylor said the company is still committed to closing the deal at the agreed-upon price and plans to pursue legal action to enforce the agreement.
“We are confident we will prevail in the Delaware Court of Chancery,” Taylor wrote.
It appears that Sen. Karen Manchin (D-WV) and Sen. Karen Sinema (D-AZ) maybe willing to get back on board with Build Back Better. Gas prices are dropping in the country.
Democrats are more enthusiastic about voting thanks to the Supreme Court reversing a series of settled decisions. Roe v. Wade has woken a sleeping giant.
Ukraine is still leading the news. Russia has made small gains but in the process lost over 50,000 soliders. The White House is working hard to freedom for Britney Griner, Paul Whelan, Andy Huynh and Alexander Drueke.
America is still divided by politics, race amd economic standings.
Job growth accelerated at a much faster pace than expected in June, indicating that the main pillar of the U.S. economy remains strong despite pockets of weakness.
Nonfarm payrolls increased 372,000 in the month, better than the 250,000 Dow Jones estimate and continuing what has been a strong year for job growth, according to data Friday from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The unemployment rate was 3.6%, unchanged from May and in line with estimates. An alternative measure of unemployment that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time jobs for economic reasons fell sharply, dropping to 6.7% from 7.1%.
“The strong 372,000 gain in non-farm payrolls in June appears to make a mockery of claims the economy is heading into, let alone already in, a recession,” said Andrew Hunter, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics.
June’s gains marked a slight deceleration from the downwardly revised 384,000 in May. April’s count was revised down to 368,000.
Average hourly earnings increased 0.3% for the month and were up 5.1% from a year ago, the latter number slightly higher than the 5% Dow Jones estimate and indicative that wage pressures remain strong as inflation accelerates.
The wage number probably means Federal Reserve officials “are likely to press ahead with aggressive rate hikes over the coming months,” Hunter added. Policymakers have indicated a 0.75 percentage point rate hike is likely at their July meeting.

By sector, education and health services led job creation, with 96,000 hires, while professional and business services added 74,000 positions. Other contributors included leisure and hospitality (67,000), Health care (57,000), and transportation and warehousing (36,000).
Other sectors showing strong gains included manufacturing (29,000), information (25,000) and social assistance (21,000). Government jobs fell by 9,000.
There was some disparity in the numbers: The headline figure for job creation under the BLS’ establishment survey was strong. But the survey of households showed a decline of 315,000, leaving the total jobs count 755,000 shy of its February 2020 pre-pandemic level.
The gains come despite an inflation rate running at the fastest pace since the early 1980s. Prices have soared at the pump and the grocery store, as well as in virtually all other aspects of daily life.
To combat rising inflation, the Fed has instituted a series of interest rate hikes aimed at slowing the economy without causing a recession. However, recent indicators show that growth has cooled considerably.
Inflation has hit lower-income households especially. Bank of America credit and debit card data shows spending among the sector fell 1% year over year as of June 30, a potentially ominous sign for an economy that draws more than two-thirds of its growth from consumers.
Gross domestic product contracted 1.6% in the first quarter and is on pace to decline 1.9% in the second quarter, meeting the common definition of a recession. Slower spending and a sharp decline in private investment is responsible for much of the pullback.
The jobs market has been seen as the bulwark against a recession, and June’s numbers show that the employment pillar remains strong.
We are still dealing with a global pandemic which killed 10 million worldwide. The United States has 1.08 million dead from the coronavirus.
Republicans see the only path to victory is basically obstruct and complain about the president. They won't offer solutions or policies. All they care about is trying to keep folks angry with culture wars and distractions.
President Joe Biden's headaches:
The Karens in the Republican House and Senate.
Gun violence and Congress not doing anything to stop it.
Inflation.
Two Democratic senators and one independent senator who is a democratic socialist.
The members of The Squad and Progressive Caucus.
The junk food media and their never ending dramatizing of world events.
Anti-Vaxxers.
Lawmakers and activists who protest the CDC guidelines during the pandemic.
The endless culture wars that Republicans find outrage in.
Washed Up 45 and his minions on Fox, Newsmax, OANN and the internet.
Facebook and TikTok and the idiots who run it and the idiots who post on it.
Fox, The Daily Mail, Newsmax and OANN's relentless talk about conspiracies, Hunter Biden and the president's mental capacity and health.
The endless racism towards Biden's allies Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Barack Obama.
The relentless talk about spending despite the former president's reckless things.
The lack of civility towards fellow Americans.
The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about your business, your performances, your personal finances and travel. It doesn't care about the funerals, the birthday parties, the weddings, the vacations, the events and your graduations. It doesn't care about anything. It's a living organism that causes mild symptoms that include: fever, sore throats, chills, respiratory issues, loss of taste or smell and other unknown symptoms. If you have a weak immune system or health issues, your risk increases.
An active shooter doesn't care about the politics, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, your finances, your family, your plans that day, your successes, your failures, and most importantly, your life.

Jobs are looking good despite fears of an economic slowdown and with a roaring pace of inflation, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday.
Companies are still trying to hire employees. With the average wages stagnant, many are not looking forward to returning to a job that pays dirt wages. Many who worked in the retail, restaurant and low end service industry are not willing to take a job for less than $10 an hour. Matter of fact, no one can survive on $15 an hour.
Republicans don't see the bigger picture itself. They rather continue to believe in conspiracies about people collecting the safety net and not going back to work.
Give them a liveable wage and maybe things might improve in the job market.
The Supreme Court ruled in some high profile cases.
We can't always assume that folks are lazy. People are literally dying and folks are tired of the status quo of their jobs.
Many single mothers are having trouble trying to find quality daycare or family members to watch children. On top of that, some have lost family members due to the pandemic. A homemaker may have lost their spouse. Some may have no choice but to watch their children or loved ones due to the aftermath of the pandemic.
Folks are still trying to rebound from medical bills, late rent payments, owing taxes and college loans.
Republicans are white nationalists without a conscience.
Washed Up 45's presidency and Republican controlled governments killed millions of Americans. Biden has a slim majority in Congress and things can't be done with obstruction from both parties.
Holding these lawmakers accountable is not just a pledge, but a promise. You need to learn who represents your community. Your local community member, your school board member, your mayor, your state representative, your state senator, your governor, your U.S. Representative, your U.S. Senator and the president need to be held accountable for their actions.
We need to put pressure on Republicans and Democrats to do something to improve everyone's lives.
The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence. Let them know that women deserve the right to safe medical procedures. Let them know that their failure to pass legislation to lower prices are the reasons why the economy is in a free fall.
The far right will never stop undermining America.
The Medal of Freedom and Medal of Honor were given to individuals at the White House.
Manipulated media once again plays a role in the U.S. elections. Far right agitators fall for a clip of President Joe Biden placing the Medal of Honor on a U.S. veteran. According to them, the president placed the medal on backwards.
Conservatives are easily manipulated by misinformation. That is a fact.
It quickly spread and it took nearly three hours before the fact checkers debunked it.
A grainy and blurry version of a clip in which Biden put the medal around one of the veterans, Dwight Birdwell, started circulating on social media platforms, with users falsely claiming that the president put the medal on backwards.
The president placed the medal on Birdwell correctly.
The very fact the far right did that was obvious. They are willing to spread misinformation to win.
This deceptively edited video is now over 2 million views. This is where that whole ‘DNC rapid reaction social media team’ that I’ve been advocating, which the RNC has and uses so effectively, would come in handy. Again. And again. And again. 🦗
— Ron Filipkowski 🇺🇦 (@RonFilipkowski) July 7, 2022
The conspiracy theories about Biden's health, age and agenda have been a common theme among the far right and leftists. These extremist have no shame.
Birdwell, who was honored for his help heading off an assault and evacuating wounded at Tan Son Nhut Airbase near Saigon in 1968, despite injuries to his torso and face. The blurriness of the video circulating online makes it difficult to see whether Biden places the star-shaped medal on Birdwell’s chest or back.
The Medal of Honor was place correctly on Dwight Blackwell.
He is a member of the Cherokee Nation and the first Native American to be honored.
Megan Rapinoe, Simone Biles, Cindy McCain, Gabby Giffords and Denzel Washington were honored at the White House as well. Denzel could not make it because he tested positive for the coronavirus.
Vote.
Ignore the noise.
The Republicans are willing to destroy democracy to own the libs. They will never stop falling for fake news. They look at facts as fake news. They are emboldened by Washed Up 45 amd white nationalism.
The Russian Federation is also willing to interfere in the 2022 Midterms. They believe Republicans are idiots. They want them in power so they can destroy America from within. They believe culture wars in the country will drive Americans to a civil war.
Former Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe was assassinated by an extremist.
The U.S., Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, European Union and Asian Pacific Conference are on high alert. The former prime minister of Japan was assassinated during a campaign rally.
We don't know if the terrorist was a Japanese citizen or a foreign agent. It is rare political assassinations in Japan. They have not carried out assassinations of individuals and political figures since World War II. There were a few since.
North Korea and China are the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to strategic assassination plots. The former prime minister is a far right lawmaker and ally of Washed Up 45.
Shinzo Abe was assassinated and Japan is rocked by this.
The shooter opened fire on Abe, 67, from behind as the former premier addressed members of the public on a drab traffic island in the western city of Nara. Japanese media reported that the weapon appeared to be a homemade gun.
"This attack is an act of brutality that happened during the elections - the very foundation of our democracy - and is absolutely unforgivable," said Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, Abe's protege, struggling to keep his emotions in check.
It was the first killing of a sitting or former Japanese leader since a 1936 coup attempt, when several figures including two ex-premiers were assassinated.
Doctors were unable to revive Abe, who was taken to hospital in cardiopulmonary arrest and showing no vital signs. He was declared dead at 5:03 p.m. (0803 GMT), about five and a half hours after being shot.
He bled to death from deep wounds to the heart and the right side of his neck, despite receiving more than 100 units of blood in transfusions over four hours, Hidetada Fukushima, the professor in charge of emergency medicine at Nara Medical University Hospital, told a televised news conference.
Police said a 41-year-old man suspected of carrying out the shooting had been arrested. NHK quoted the suspect, identified as Tetsuya Yamagami, as telling police he was dissatisfied with Abe and wanted to kill him. The suspect told police he had made multiple handmade explosives and guns in the past, NHK said.
Abe was making a campaign speech outside a train station when two shots rang out. Security officials were then seen tackling a man in a grey T-shirt and beige trousers.
"There was a loud bang and then smoke," businessman Makoto Ichikawa, who was at the scene, told Reuters.
Abe had a special friendship with Washed Up 45.
"The first shot, no one knew what was going on, but after the second shot, what looked like special police tackled him."
Kyodo news service published a photograph of Abe lying face-up on the street by a guardrail, blood on his white shirt. People were crowded around him, one administering heart massage.
Later in the day, members of the public laid flowers near the spot where Abe fell.
Senior Japanese politicians are accompanied by armed security agents but often get close to the public, especially during political campaigns when they make roadside speeches and shake hands with passersby.
Political violence is rare in post-war Japan. In 2007, the mayor of Nagasaki was shot and killed by a yakuza gangster. The head of the Japan Socialist Party was assassinated during a speech in 1960 by a right-wing youth with a samurai short sword. A few other prominent politicians have been attacked but not injured.
Police said the suspected shooter was a resident of Nara. Media said he had served in Japan's military for three years until 2005.
Abe served two terms as prime minister, stepping down in 2020 citing ill health. But he remained a dominant presence over the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), controlling one of its major factions.
Kishida, who came to power last year, had been hoping to use the election to emerge from Abe's shadow and define his premiership, analysts have said. Kishida suspended his election campaign after the shooting. All main political parties condemned the attack.
The end of the road for former reality television agitator.
The feds will serve the former reality television star a dozen years in federal time our after he admitted to federal enticement of underage children. The sexual predator is a former cheerleader who gain popularity for his flamboyant actions.
He had solicited numerous young boys for sex. In his plea, he admits that his actions were sparked by his own sexual abuse.
The prosecutors ignored that noise.
They believe that the sexual predator used his celebrity and fame to lure children to have them take inappropriate photos and sex.
While handing him the sentence, Judge Manish S Shah told the disgraced social media star and cheerleading champion to consider the it to be an “expression of the seriousness of your crimes, tempered with some hope that all is not lost for you or for your victims, and that in the future some healing can occur”.
The sexual predator appeared in court for the sentence, which lasted around seven hours.
Addressing his victims before receiving his sentence, he said: “I am deeply sorry for all the trauma my abuse has caused you.
“I pray deep down that your suffering comes to an end,” he said, adding, “I’m not an evil person. I’m still learning who I am and what my purpose is.”
The sexual predator remained in custody at a federal detention center since he was arrested in September 2020 on child pornography charges.
Prosecutors alleged at the time that he solicited videos and images from two 14-year-old brothers.
According to a complaint, federal prosecutors said that the sexual predator admitted to repeatedly asking a minor teen for pornographic videos and images between December 2018 and March 2020.
Tier III offender for LIFE.
In December 2020, he was indicted on more charges alleging misconduct in Illinois, Florida and Texas.
At a plea hearing in February this year, the sexual predator pleaded guilty to two of seven counts against him. These included persuading a 17-year-old to send him sexually explicit photographs for money.
The other count stemmed from a trip he took to Florida for the purpose of “engaging in illicit sexual conduct” with a 15-year-old.
Prosecutors agreed to drop the remaining five counts under a plea agreement.
A U.S. child pornography charge carries a sentence ranging from five to 20 years and a second charge carries a maximum sentence of 30 years.
A Chicago native, the sexual predator was the breakout star of Cheer. The Netflix series follows a cheerleading team from Navarro College in Corsicana, Texas, on its pursuit of a national title.
The second season of Cheer addresses the investigation into the sexual predator, in an episode titled “Jerry”.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson is stepping down. He had notified Queen Elizabeth II. World leaders react to the resignation. He is the latest "conservative" leader to bow out in disgrace. Out of 10 Downing Street for the embattled politician. He will be gone in October.
Theresa May and David Cameron were the last conservative leaders to resign after scandal.
Notice that conservatives are always ruining things.
Johnson before he became the Prime Minister of Great Britain was a polarizing mayor from London.
The soon-to-be prime minster lost trust among the Brits when he decided to host a party during the pandemic. Addressing the nation he thanked the Britons for the "immense privilege" that was bestowed upon him.
Now the Conservative Party UK will now have to find another scandal plagued leader.
During Queen Elizabeth II diamond jubilee in which she celebrates 70 years in royalty as well as being one of the country's longest serving monarchs, Johnson was promptly booed and heckled.
Johnson said he will support the Conservative Party's choice to replace him.
Earlier today, Johnson's decision was leaked to the press where Parliament member Tobias Ellwood said that the prime minister had "recognized the damaged that was being done, not just to the party brand but also our international stock," and decided to step down.
Nick Cannon ain't the only person who needs to wrap it up!
What do women see in these losers?
Oh, thry're rich!
He is the father of allegedly 15 children. 10 are confirmed. Of the ten, one with first wife Justine Wilson Musk had passed away from sudden infant death syndrome. She gave birth ton a set of twins and a set of triplets.
Billionaire douchebag Elon Musk has allegedly a set of twins from a woman who he sexually harassed. This is the guy Republicans envision as a leader of free speech.
I guess free speech and sex exploitation is what Republicans value. They sure enough value a man who literally is on the verge of being fired out the cannon by his board.
This certainly could put the Tesla and SpaceX CEO in serious trouble. He secretly fathered a set of twins with executive Shivon Zilis. He had children while he was dating Grimes who was pregnant with his son, X Æ A-12.
Allegedly he fathered a child with disgraced actress Amber Heard.
Court documents obtained by Business Insider on Wednesday showed that Musk and the children’s mother, Shivon Zilis, filed a petition to change the twins’ names in order to “have their father’s last name and contain their mother’s last name as part of their middle name.”
The order was then approved by a federal judge in May. Zilis purchased a home in the Austin, Texas, area in August, nearly three months before the twins were born, according to Business Insider. Musk also has a waterfront estate in the city.
The twins were born weeks before Musk and his then-girlfriend, the musician known as Grimes, gave birth to their second child via surrogate in December.
Musk slept with a top executive of his company. She gave birth to his children.
Zilis, 36, is director of operations and special projects for Neuralink, which is developing computer chips to implant in brains and where Musk is a co-CEO. A Yale University graduate, she began her career at companies including as IBM and Bloomberg Beta before joining Tesla in 2017 as a project director.
The Ontario, Canada, native, who was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in 2015, reportedly first met Musk that year through her work for his nonprofit OpenAI.
The 51-year-old CEO has been an outspoken advocate for more childbirth, expressing fear of a possible fertility crisis in the U.S. and touting his own success with childbirth.
“I mean, I’m doing my part haha,” Musk said in a follow-up tweet in the thread last month.
Musk has yet to close on his big to acquire social media platform Twitter, however Insider noted that Musk had Zilis on the short-list of individuals to run the company should the deal go through.
This idiot wants to buy Twitter and he offered $44 billion. Right now, he is trolling right now and the deal isn't finalized as of yet. But once it does, he will take it private and consider giving Washed Up 45 his Twitter account back.
This guy should be investigated for abuse of power. I don't understand what women see in this asshole?
The terrorist who killed Nipsey Hussle was served at his trial.
He could face either 15 to LIFE or the DEATH card.
The terrorist charged in the fatal shooting of Grammy-nominated rapper Nipsey Hussle, was found guilty of first-degree murder on Wednesday, CBS Los Angeles reported. The jury deliberated for about six hours before reaching its verdict.
The terrorist, 32, had also been charged with two counts of attempted first-degree murder because two bystanders were hit by gunfire, according to The Associated Press — but the jury found him guilty of two counts of attempted voluntary manslaughter instead.
Hussle, born Ermias Asghedom, was fatally shot outside of his Los Angeles clothing store in March 2019. He was 33.
When the trial began last month, prosecutors said the terrorist's attack was calculated and premeditated. Deputy District Attorney John McKinney said there was "no doubt" the terrorist knew he'd kill Hussle, adding that the terrorist shot Hussle at least 10 times and kicked him in the head before running away, according to the AP.
That terrorist killed Nip and left actress Lauren London raising his son and daughter.
McKinney said there had been a dispute between the pair — Hussle had heard the terrorist was a snitch and wanted to "clear that up," the AP reported. The deputy district attorney said the pair, along with two of Hussle's friends, had a "cool conversation" with the terrorist prior to the attack, noting Hussle didn't have any security with him when he visited his store.
However, prosecutors had a hard time getting witnesses to testify. One police official attributed their reluctance to a fear of being seen as a snitch, according to the AP.
Meanwhile, the terrorist's attorney Aaron Jansen told the jury that Hussle's murder wasn't planned, and said Holder didn't mean to shoot the two bystanders. He pinned the attack on "heated passion," the AP reported.
Last week, the terrorist was attacked by "multiple individuals" while in a jail holding cell, Jansen told CBS News. He was allegedly cut by a razor and taken to the hospital, where he received an MRI and staples in the back of his head, Jansen said.
Nipsey Hussle leaves behind his fiance Lauren London, their son and his daughter from a previous relationship.
