Desperation: NFL Team Decides 15-Week-Old Baby Should Be Charged Full Price for Ticket


Even if you take all of the politics and anthem kneeling out of the equation, there’s still a lot left to be desired when it comes to the NFL.

Too many players find themselves in legal trouble, whether it’s domestic violence, DUI or other drug problems.

NFL leadership, which includes commissioner Roger Goodell, can seem inept at best, and downright clownish at worst when doling out discipline.

And if you believe there’s a direct link between football and CTE, there can be ethical apprehensions as well.

But other than those issues, at least the NFL is wholesome fun for the entire family, right?

TRENDING: James Woods Pulls Out Dictionary To Bury Leftists Attacking Kavanaugh

Apparently, only if you’re willing to pay full price for every last member of the family — Including 3-month old babies.

One of the NFL’s marquee franchises, the Green Bay Packers, have recently come under fire after it was revealed the team required a mother to pay a full ticket price for her 15-week-old baby.

Die-hard Packers fan Erica Johnson spoke to KMSP-TV in Minneapolis about the ordeal she had to go through when trying to bring her infant into a Packers game.

Should this mother have been charged for bringing her infant daughter?

Johnson had presumed that her infant, who’s too young to have her own seat and would spend the whole game attached to mom, wouldn’t require a ticket to get into legendary Lambeau Field.

“I just want them to step back and review the policy as to the rationale so that being a hometown team, family-friendly environment, the one we’ve always known the Packers to be, that kids could really enjoy that experience,” Johnson said.

Johnson also reiterated how leaving her child at home was just not a realistic option.

“Many nursing moms understand leaving her at home for the average length of the game — three and a half to four hours — just isn’t a feasible option,” she said.  “So you gotta figure out how to make do, which means bringing her with.”

To be fair, the NFL does not have a league-wide policy on admitting small children. While some teams do allow children under a certain size and/or age to be admitted at no charge with parents, Green Bay is one of seven teams that requires a ticket for every person who enters the stadium, regardless of age.

As a point of reference, Disneyland — well known for excessive pricing and expensive admission tickets — doesn’t charge admission for babies under the age of 3.

It’s no secret that the NFL’s image has taken a hit since the advent of anthem protests. Ratings are down and public perception of the league is perhaps at an all-time low. So it doesn’t help the league’s image when one of its marquee franchises is perceived to be reaching deep into the pockets of the mother of a small infant.

You can argue whether a packed NFL stadium is the place for a 15-week old, or question why Johnson assumed she would be able to bring her child into the game. But there’s no question the Packers and the NFL are the ones who look worse in this situation — the latest piece of bad PR for a league that can’t seem to escape it of late.

San Francisco Residents Pleading With Thieves To Spare Their Vehicles


Bad enough dodging fecal matter on the sidewalks.

Via ABC7:

San Francisco residents fed up with having their cars broken into multiple times have taken matters into their own hands. They’re hoping to connect with would be thieves on an emotional level.

Fed up with having his vehicle broken into four times over a year and a half, Felix Kubin decided to express his frustration, writing on the rear windshield, “Thank you for letting this glass remain unbroken. We are a poor family with two kids. No values inside except diapers.”

“Maybe they feel pity or like empathy,” Kubin told ABC7 News.

On the driver’s side window he wrote, “No valuables inside except baby’s milk.”

On the rear passenger window he wrote, “Nothing to take valuable in this car. Thank you.”

Kubin and his wife learned what would work the hard way. First break in, they lost $1,500 worth of sporting goods.

“I think maybe it’s my fault I left the car in such a place,” said Kubin.

Second break-in, they lost just a bag, but in a third break in at Golden Gate Park, much more.

“That time we was really upset because it was all my official papers,” said Kubin.

“My passport, social security, working permit, everything, it was my wallet, it was two phones,” he continued.

The fourth break-in was on Otis Street.

“I see the thieves just open and see milk and diapers and left it,” said Kubin.

That’s when he decided to use a marker to plead his case as a dad.

Bob Woodward Says After Two Years Of Searching He Found No Evidence Of Russia Collusion (AUDIO)


Veteran Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward has just released a new book on Trump so he is making the media rounds to promote it. During an appearance on the Hugh Hewitt show this weekend, he said that he searched for evidence of Russia collusion with the Trump campaign and found none.

HH: And I tell you, Bob Woodward, I read this book as a lawyer. I’m not a defense lawyer, although I was at Justice. Dowd got played badly. Do you agree?

BW: Well, but he is the one who decided on the strategy – total cooperation. We’re going to let you, we’re opening the door completely. And some of the most sensitive material was given to Mueller. He was delighted to have it. It is quite true that Dowd concluded from his own work, remember, he spent eight months on this intensely, time with Mueller, time with the White House people, time with Trump. And he didn’t see anything there until the end.

HH: So let’s set aside the Comey firing, which as a Constitutional law professor, no one will ever persuade me can be obstruction. And Rod Rosenstein has laid out reasons why even if those weren’t the president’s reasons. Set aside the Comey firing. Did you, Bob Woodward, hear anything in your research in your interviews that sounded like espionage or collusion?

BW: I did not, and of course, I looked for it, looked for it hard. And so you know, there we are. We’re going to see what Mueller has, and Dowd may be right. He has something that Dowd and the president don’t know about, a secret witness or somebody who has changed their testimony. As you know, that often happens, and that can break open or turn a case.

HH: But you’ve seen no collusion?

BW: I have not.

Oh, The Irony: Arkansas Nike Store Calls Police On A Peaceful Pro-Cop Demonstrator


Triggered.

Via BPR:

Despite recruiting an anti-cop zealot to represent its “Just Do It” campaign for 2018, the apparel retailer Nike still expects the unfairly maligned police to help it in its alleged hour of need.

One Arkansas-based Nike store in particular reportedly contacted local authorities Thursday after a peaceful pro-police protester showed up outside to purportedly stir up trouble.

Except peaceful protester Jimmie Cavin didn’t approach the store, pester employees or really do anything disruptive whatsoever.

He casually waved a “Blue Lives Matter” flag to show love to the police, and for that act the store called the cops on him. But instead of telling him to leave or even arresting him, the cops wound up turning right around moments later and skedaddling. Why?

“He realized I wasn’t doing anything wrong,” Cavin explained later to local station KLRT.

“So, Nike called the police on the guy supporting the police for supporting the police,” he sarcastically added, the point being to highlight the apparel company’s hypocrisy.

TRUMP FIRES WARNING SHOT AT DEEP STATE: Devin Nunes to Release Depositions from 70 Witnesses Before Election (VIDEO)


TRUMP FIRES WARNING SHOT AT DEEP STATE: Devin Nunes to Release Depositions from 70 Witnesses Before Election (VIDEO)

Jim Hoft
by Jim Hoft
September 16, 2018

Rep. Devin Nunes: We believe those depositions need to be published before the November election: “I think full transparency is in order here.”

House Intel Chairman Devin Nunes joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday morning to discuss the ongoing investigation into the Obama administration interference in the 2016 elections.

Rep. Devin Nunes: Maria, the American people are now beginning to see, the walls are beginning to close in on the corrupt officials from the Department of Justice and the FBI. Many of them have been fired. Many of them are on leave. Many of them have been demoted. But you are slowly starting to see this collapse in on them even though the mainstream media is not covering this because they seem so focused on drinking the Russian Kool-aid… So, we believe that the depositions we took, from about 70 people, those need to be published and they need to be published before the election, published I mean, they need to be put out for the American people to review, so they can see all the work that we did, and they need to see all the people we interviewed and those answers to those questions. I think full transparency is in order here. So I expect to make those available from our committee to the American public in the next few weeks.

Maria Bartiromo: So let me just go back here. This is breaking news right now. You are going to declassify your depositions of 70 individuals related to Trump Russia collusion narrative.

Devin Nunes: Just for the sake of full transparency because they’re is so much out there information or disinformation on this Russia fiasco that we need this information out before the election.

President Donald Trump retweeted this.

Ocasio-Cortez Can’t Answer on How She Will Pay for Her $40 Trillion Price Tag in Government Programs

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was unable to answer on Sunday on how she will pay for her progressive agenda in which some think tanks have estimated would come at a cost of $40 trillion.

"Various new programs including Medicare for all, housing is a federal right, federal jobs guaranteed, tuition free public college, canceling all student loan debt. According to nonpartisan and left leaning, tax policy center, the overall price tag is more than $40 trillion in the next decade," CNN "State of the Union" host Jake Tapper said. "You recently said in an interview increasing taxes on the very wealthy, increased corporate tax rate would make $2 trillion over the next ten years. Where is the other $38 trillion going to come from?"

Ocasio-Cortez responded by stating Medicare for all would end up saving the country money.

"One of the things we need to realize when we look at something like Medicare for all, Medicare for all would save the American people. A very large amount of money," the democratic socialist said. "The United Kingdom has a form of single payer health care, Canada, France, Germany. We need to realize that these investments are better and they are good for our future."

"These are generational investments so that they are not but they are really profound decisions about who we want to be as a nation and how we want to act as the wealthiest nation in the history of the world," Ocasio-Cortez added.

"But the price tag for everything that you laid out in your campaign is $40 trillion over the next ten years. I understand that Medicare for all would cost more to some wealthier people and to the government and to taxpayers, while also reducing individual health care expenditures," Tapper said. "Forty trillion is quite a bit of money. And the tacks that you talked about raising to pay for this, to pay for your agenda, only count for two. We’re going by left-leaning analysts."

Ocasio-Cortez didn’t address Tapper’s question about the concern and instead told a personal anecdote when she talked to a group of citizens that none had health insurance due to it being too expensive. She continued on how millennials are unable to buy homes and cars comes at a cost to the overall economy.

"I guess I won’t get an answer for the other $38 trillion. We’ll have you back and go over that," Tapper concluded.

In an earlier interview, Ocasio-Cortez struggled to explain on how she would pay for her agenda.

School District Takes Defiant Stand, Will Proudly Display ‘In God We Trust’ for All To See


A school district in Alabama will be proudly displaying the nation’s motto, “In God We Trust,” despite the constant assaults on Christianity and American history from the left.

The Cullman County school board last week unanimously approved a resolution to display “In God We Trust” in county schools, according to WVTM-TV.

The motto will greet students when they walk into the front office of all schools in the county’s system.

This is a bold act by any local government in a time when liberals are trying everything they can to separate school children from any semblance of Christianity.

This attack on Christianity is probably best symbolized by Engel v. Vitale court case, the 1962 Supreme Court decision that eliminated prayer from public school unless it was voluntary or student led.

TRENDING: James Woods Pulls Out Dictionary To Bury Leftists Attacking Kavanaugh

But in the present day, even prayer sessions that seem to be compliant with the strict laws are under attack.

In February, an Ohio school district ceased prayer sessions before football games because they were challenged by a far-left atheist nonprofit called Freedom From Religion Foundation, according to the Alliance, Ohio, paper The Alliance Review.

However, the phrase “In God We Trust” also has deep historical meaning outside of its religious connotations. According to the Treasury Department, it first appeared on U.S. two-cent coins in 1864 — while the Civil War was raging. Its use on currency was sporadic after that until, in 1956, it was declared the national motto by a joint resolution of Congress. It has been on U.S. currency since 1957.

Cullman County Superintendent Shane Barnette stressed the importance of the motto’s historical meaning.

Do you agree with the school district’s decision to display the U.S. motto?

“Some people may disagree with it, but the Legislature voted to allow it,” Barnette said according to The Cullman Times. “I think it’s important for students to know the history and how this came about in our nation’s early years.”

The motto is heavily ingrained in our country. In addition to it being the official motto, it also appear on coinage, some state license plates, and in government buildings.

Unfortunately, the prevalence of the motto doesn’t mean the left hasn’t tried attacking it in the past.

In August, the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Paul, Minnesota rejected an appeal from atheist groups claiming the motto is unconstitutional, according to Reuters.

One of the lawyers involved in making the appeal, Michael Newdow, had also unsuccessfully challenged the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance for using the phrase “under God.”

RELATED: Texas State Board of Education Votes To Erase Hillary Clinton From History Curriculum

The left isn’t limited to erasing mottos and phrases. They also attempt to topple statutes representing pieces of American History.

For example, a left-wing group in New Orleans seeks to topple statues of Henry Clay and President Andrew Jackson, according to WVUE-DT.

And liberals will probably not be happy with the Cullman County school board’s decision either.

The Cullman County school district is taking a bold stance by proudly displaying the phrase “In God We Trust.”

The Deep State, Obama, and Destroying America


On April 22, national security adviser John Bolton said, “It’s Open Season for Foreign Influence Operations.  It’s not just Vladimir Putin’s Kremlin that is trying to influence our elections.  So are communist China and sharia-supremacist Iran.”


Vitriolic hatred of President Trump has sprung America into an Afghanistan-like “state of collapse, civil conflict, ethnic and disintegration locked in a self-perpetuating cycle that may be simply beyond outside resolution.”  An example is California versus America over energy.  California has chosen 100% renewable energy by 2045 when it’s proven that renewable energy doesn’t work on a scalable, affordable basis now or in the coming decades without immense fossil fuel backup and billions in taxpayer subsidies.



Thankfully, the United States embraced fracking, allowing the U.S. to overtake Russia and Saudi Arabia as the world’s number-one oil producer.  Meanwhile, California dooms its economy to poverty for its citizens with higher energy prices and depressed job growth.


This example illustrates that America’s democratic process is under attack, but it’s against each other and not from foreign interference.  Why?  Because if the Democrats take Congress, they will impeach President Trump and don’t have a plan to actually govern.  This is now Venezuelan-style socialism that only wants power.  These people – mostly unserious Democrats – “are vile, disgusting people.  There is no lie they won’t tell, no person they won’t smear to advance their agenda,” as evidenced by the Judge Brett Kavanaugh hearings.


They will return America back to the anemic growth it endured under Obama, and our enemies will only grow more emboldened.  America will go the way of California-type leaders like Tom Steyer and Gavin Newsom plus the lies coming from the #Resistance and #NeverTrump crowd.  Seemingly, this is exactly what the Deep State, the Democrats, establishment Republicans, and President Obama want.


According to Dr. Victor Davis Hanson, the Robert Mueller investigation is a mockery of justice full of Democratic partisans.  It was never intended to root out Russian collusion; instead, it is to take down the duly elected president, his family, and anyone associated with his past life.  Ask yourself, would this sham collusion narrative be happening if Hillary were in the White House?  Of course not.  Hanson is correct when he writes:


No President has ever faced impeachment for supposed wrongdoings alleged to have taken place before he took office.  With effort to go back years, if not decades, into Trump’s business and personal life, we are now in uncharted territory.


We will have a shooting, civil war on our hands if Trump is impeached over an investigation that has never proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump colluded with Russia.  The Democratic Party of Truman, Kennedy, FDR, Scoop Jackson, and Governor Pat Brown is gone.  Back then, Democrats wanted a thriving middle class, single-family homes, great schools to achieve upward mobility, and world-class infrastructure.  Now it’s spying on your political enemies through the unelected intelligence fiefdoms of the Deep State that Trump is trying to destroy.


Issues have come to light revealing the extent of Obama’s troubled presidency and former top officials reckless disregard for unlawfully spying on Trump and thousands of Americans that is destroying America.  Moreover, Obama’s glee at making a nuclear deal with Iran has unleashed Hell on the Middle East by creating a hegemonic Iran.  To illustrate, Politico did an extensive investigative report titled “The Secret Backstory of How Obama Let Hezbollah off the Hook,” because “[a]n ambitious U.S. task force targeting Hezbollah’s billion-dollar criminal enterprise ran headlong into the White House’s desire for a nuclear deal with Iran.”


Additionally, The Atlantic reported that Obama and former high-ranking intelligence officials knew that Iran and al-Qaeda were working together (Hazma, Osama bin Laden’s son, got married in Iran), and more damning was a 19-page document from the 2011 raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan that killed bin Laden, showing that “al-Qaeda and the Iranian Revolutionary Guards in Tehran touched on funding and arming the Sunni terror outfit so it could strike at American targets.”  Former CIA director Mike Pompeo “suggested” that this al-Qaeda-Iran pact was an “open secret during the Obama administration.”  Maybe these revelations are why the Deep State, Obama, Democrats, and negligent Republicans are trying to destroy Trump and the Rule of Law. It can certainly justify why Trump de-certified the Iran nuclear deal.


Unfortunately, “Obama did spy on Trump,” according to former CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson.  She was also illegally spied on by the Obama administration for writing unflattering stories.  Ms. Attkisson then credibly alleges, “It means U.S. intelligence agencies secretly surveilled at least a half dozen Trump associates.  And those are just the ones we know about.”


Former senior-level Obama officials Susan Rice, James Clapper, John Brennan, Sally Yates, and Samantha Power all admitted to reviewing or “unmasking” political figures.  Obama intel agencies were caught “secretly monitoring Congressional conversations while the Obama administration negotiated the Iran nuclear deal.”  Brennan and Clapper were both found lying to Congress in 2013 and 2014.  And Ms. Attkisson is still fighting the Justice Department in a federal lawsuit over hacking her CBS computer, causing CBS to publicly announce:


Correspondent Sharyl Attkisson’s computer was hacked by “an unauthorized, external, unknown party on multiple occasions,” confirming Attkisson’s previous revelation of the hacking.


Global intelligence firm Stratfor verified this claim in a September 21, 2010 email:


John Brennan [then an Obama Homeland Security adviser] is behind the witch hunts of investigative journalists learning information from inside the beltway sources.


This Deep State behavior grew when the intelligence community “expanded its authority in 2011 so it can monitor innocent U.S. citizens.”  Then, in January 2016, a top-secret inspector general report “found the NSA violated the very laws designed to prevent abuse.”  Also in 2016, Obama officials “searched through intelligence on U.S. citizens a record 30,000 times up from 9,500 in 2013″ during an election year.  Two weeks before the 2016 presidential election, NSA officials before a FISA court hearing overseeing government surveillance “confessed they’d violated privacy safeguards with much greater frequency” than previously admitted.  The presiding judge accused the NSA of “institutional lack of candor and a very serious Fourth Amendment issue.”


If it weren’t for Congressman Devin Nunes, chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence the public would be in the dark “about the unethical and often illegal behavior of the FBI, CIA, National Security Agency and Department of Justice” under the former administration.  Chairman Nunes also exposed the politicized leak of former NSC director Michael Flynn’s contact with the Russian ambassador in a January 2017 Washington Post column.  Nunes’s investigation further uncovered that Clinton’s campaign paid for an unverified dossier in 2016 from former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele that was used by Obama’s FBI and Justice Department to obtain a warrant from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) for illegal surveillance on former Trump campaign aide Carter Page.


What Brennan, Clapper, Rice, and others have done is “monetize access” to classified intelligence for political and private financial gain.  Obama intelligence chiefs – and now the Deep State – weaponized intelligence.  Past and present high-ranking intelligence officials believe that it was correct to revoke Brennan’s security clearances and that others should follow.  These Obama-era officials and current Deep State employees are pursuing political agendas via the anti-Trump media, with the U.S. Department of Justice standing back and doing nothing while America is destroying Trump, the office of the president and the freest, greatest country in the history of mankind.
