A Virginia homeowner was furious when a jury pooled donations to pay the court fines for an illegal alien convicted of stealing more than $5,000 worth of jewelry, a report says.
A jury convicted 19-year-old Sandra Mendez Ortega of robbing Lisa Copeland of her engagement and wedding rings when the convict was serving as a housemaid for the victim. Despite the conviction, the jury felt so sorry for the pregnant Ortega that they pooled their money to pay the $60 fine levied upon the perpetrator.
The victim in the case criticized the jury for its out-of-court donations, insisting that their actions made a mockery of the law.
“I just pray that they’re never in my shoes,” Copeland told the Washington Post.
Copeland went on to point out that the problem is not exactly the $80 in donations the jurors pooled but that the convict never apologized or showed any remorse for her crime. “If she had accepted accountability, I would be okay with all of this. The fact that she won’t accept accountability makes it wrong,” Copeland said.
Jury foreman Jeffrey Memmott defended their actions.
“The general sentiment was she was a victim, too,” Memmott insisted. “Two of the women [jurors] were crying because of how bad they felt. One lady pulled out a $20 bill, and just about everybody chipped in.”
Another juror exclaimed that they acted out of compassion. Even though they were compelled to convict the thief, Janice Woolridge added, “There’s also got to be some compassion somewhere. Young people make bad decisions. We just couldn’t pile on any more.”
The victim was outraged by the whole situation.
Copeland initially reported the theft of the rings to the Fairfax City police, whose investigation turned up nothing. But police said that after some time, Ortega returned the rings and apologized to them and, with their help, wrote a short note of apology.
But Copeland says that she was never shown any apology letter, and Ortega never apologized to her in person. The victim was also upset that the jury was never told that Ortega is an illegal alien, a fact prosecutors claimed “wasn’t relevant” because it had nothing directly to do with the theft of the jewelry.
“It really irritates me that she came here and committed a felony,” Copeland’s husband, Jeff, said. “People are coming here because there is opportunity here. But when they come here and commit crimes, that’s where you’ve got to draw the line.”
Copeland was also infuriated when members of the jury later confessed that they tried hard to find ways not to convict Ortega at all. Copeland insisted that the whole chain of events was never aired in court.
“The whole time she was telling the sob story,” she said. Copeland told the Post that after Ortega took the rings, “she lied to the cops, she lied to her employers. She didn’t turn in the rings, she made somebody else do it. She confessed but claimed that the rings were in the bathroom. And then she tried to blame her boss.”
Despite the fact that the rings were worth enough that the conviction was for felony theft, the softhearted jury decided against jail time and only recommended a $60 fine, which meant that their $80 in donations ended up giving the thief $20 extra after paying her inexpensive fine.
Unable to speak any English, Ortega thanked the jurors through an interpreter. “I became happy when I heard they wanted to give me that money,” the interpreter said Ortega told them. “Thank you very much to all of them; God bless them.”
Deep State is nothing more than a group of deceiving, criminal and corrupt politicians and government workers who are working to overthrow the US government because of their desire for power and belief that they best can govern this great nation. In reality they are treasonous lunatics aided by the equally corrupt mainstream media (MSM).
A number of individuals, referred to collectively as ‘Deep State’, are using their power to prevent President Donald Trump from governing as he was duly elected to do and are doing all they can to overturn the election that put the President in place. Numerous actions taking place either individually or in an organized fashion can be attributed to deep state.
The entire Mueller investigation is a scam created by the deep state to overthrow the US government and is the deep state’s ultimate plot to re-take the country. Former United Nations Ambassador John Bolten called the deep state’s actions against President Trump the first Coup D’état in US History –
Who is ‘deep state’? Below is our list of deep state operatives as identified over the past year –
Barack Obama– The former President remains anonymous in most stories related to deep state but he is a key member if not the key corruptor and creator of the deep state team. His administration is famous for corruption at levels never seen before in US history so it is no surprise that he is involved in the overthrow of the Trump Administration. His team spied on candidate Trump and his team. They corrupted the Executive and Judiciary branches of government thoroughly. They hired and led the corrupt team at the FBI and DOJ. Obama’s first AG, Eric Holder, is the only AG ever held in contempt of Congress.
Obama’s years were full of corruption and the deep state sat back and either covered it up or allowed the corrupt and criminal acts to proceed. The list of Obama’s America destroying activities is long – it covers eight years – including giving billions to Iran, not providing protection for Americans in Benghazi, Obamacare, releasing the Taliban 5, doubling the US debt to nearly $20 trillion, fast and furious, the IRS scandal, providing arms to ISIS, etc…
Obama is the king of deep state and the related destruction of America. He now has set up camp a few miles from the White House and is traveling the world undermining President Trump (note some references to TGP posts) –
Loretta Lynch – Obama’s second AG corrupt oversaw the FBI and DOJ that set Hillary Clinton free during the email scandal after obvious criminal actions a week after Lynche met Bill Clinton on an Arizona tarmac in a botched clandestine meeting before the election. After the Trump win Lynch released the following bizarre video and call to arms for the deep state –
Robert Mueller– Dirty Cop and former FBI Head Robert Mueller is the epitome of the deep state. As head of the FBI he failed to prosecute anyone for emailgate, fast and furious, Clinton foundation, etc. He never recused himself as the special counsel in the Trump – Russia farce in spite of numerous conflicts of interest. His entire team is a group of deep state liberal corrupt attorneys and investigators. His investigation is a crime as exemplified by this past week’s report that the Mueller team unlawfully obtained transition emails from the Trump team that were protected under attorney – client privilege.
James Comey – Mueller’s partner in crime and protégé led the FBI after Mueller’s departure. He won a deep state award for best corrupt actor when he led the Clinton email investigation, treated it as a special case, and then let Hillary off with no charges. His presentation for why she should be let go was a masterpiece and showed he may also be a bit of a lunatic. He let Hillary go twice during the election in spite of obvious crimes to every American. –
Andrew McCabe– FBI Head after Comey was fired by President Trump, McCabe is in the middle of the scheme to overthrow the government. His wife ran for office in 2016 and her campaign received hundreds of thousands in Hillary related campaign donations at the same time McCabe was involved in the Hillary emails cover-up. In spite of this, McCabe didn’t recuse himself from the Hillary investigation until a week before the election. His name was on an email involved in drafting Comey’s exoneration of Clinton. The distribution list is all deep state –
Crafting Comey’s July 5th Hillary Clinton Statement was a team effort.
(Email chain statement redacted)
Peter Strzok– Nobody knew this crook’s name until a few weeks ago. The Lead Inspector on the Clinton email scandal and Trump – Russia farce. This guy had a god – complex and thought it was his mission to stop Trump and help Hillary. He’s a crook in every sense of the word and should be in jail.
Lisa Page– Strzok’s mistress at the DOJ. Another Trump hater in the deep state.
Bruce and Nellie Ohr– He worked at the DOJ and she worked at Fusion – the company that slanders people for a living. Her specialty was with Russia and Trump.
Sally Yates and Andrew Weissman– Weissman is one of the Trump haters on Mueller’s team who praised Yates for defying President Trump’s travel ban before being removed by Trump. The MSM praised her as well. Mueller’s selection of Weissman says it all.
Honorable Mentions –
Although no longer in the government or never in the government, these individuals and entities are deep state creators and supporters –
The Clintons – Clinton emails, Uranium One, Clinton Foundation, Whitewater, Impeachment, Sex harassers, corrupt to the core.
George Soros – His last government job may have been working for the Nazi’s in World War II. He’s corrupt and has been stealing from innocents ever since. He promotes corrupt politicians and policies. His many foundations and organizations all encourage upheaval and are anti-American, including Black Lives Matter.
Democrat Party – These elites will do all they can to stay in power. A loss for Trump is their win. They don’t care about Americans, only power.
MSM– The media in America today are a joke and travesty. They are so biased and corrupt. Nearly 100 percent of their coverage of our President Trump is negative. It includes lies and more importantly not sharing the positive stories of Trump’s accomplishments. They enable the deep state.
Jeff Sessions – The biggest disappointment of the year. At first the thought was that Sessions was compromised but now he appears to be a card carrying member of deep state. He did everything he could to create the Mueller investigation and has done nothing to address the many Obama and Hillary crimes.
NeverTrumpers and Elite Republicans– Where are the leaders of the Republican Party? As deep state attempts their coup, the House Speaker and the Head of the Senate remain silent. Instead they initiated Trump – Russia investigations in Congress themselves. Horrible!
In spite of deep state’s actions, President Trump, has accomplished miracles in his first year as President. The US stock market is on fire, it has never been this high or strong. Numerous all-time records took place this year making it the best year ever for the US stock market. ISIS is all but destroyed in Iraq and Syria after Obama declaring that they will be there for a generation.
Let’s hope in the near future deep state criminals get what’s coming to them – justice – Drain the Swamp!

Not long after President Donald Trump’s administration ordered a government agency to refrain from using progressive buzzwords in some official documents, liberal snowflakes began freaking out.
According to The Washington Post, the administration banned the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from using seven phrases such as “evidence-based” and “science-based” in government budgeting documents.
CDC officials disseminated the list of unacceptable words and phrases to policy analysts at the agency on Thursday, the Post reported. The list also includes “transgender,” “fetus,” “vulnerable,” “entitlement,” and “diversity.”
According to the Post, the CDC, which conducts research on issues ranging from health promotion and preparedness to improving the overall public health in the U.S., will be prohibited from using the list of words in official documents in the 2019 budget.
On participant in Thursday’s meeting told the Post that analysts have been instructed to use the phrase, “CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes,” rather than “evidence-based” or “science-based.”
The Trump administration’s apparent goal is to remove buzzwords and emotionally charged language that has been used to distract people from what the agency is actually doing and working to accomplish.
Not everyone saw it that way, as liberals began complaining about the move and accused the Trump administration of basically upending the agency.
On Saturday, Rep. Gwen Moore, a Wisconsin Democrat, took issue with the Trump administration’s decision to remove left-wing buzzwords from budgeting documents.
“This is deeply disturbing and offensive. Shame on you, @realDonaldTrump,” Moore wrote on Twitter.
Taking Moore a rhetorical step further, Planned Parenthood called the list “unimaginably dangerous” and “reckless,” warning that forbidding such words could impede the CDC’s abilitiy to address public health concerns.
As usual with a Trump administration, there’s an overzealous attempt by liberals to claim that the president is trying to harm people or ruin something.
The administration is simply sending the message that a government agency is still capable of effectively doing its job without using certain politically correct words. As Department of Health and Human Services spokesman Health and Human Services spokesman Matt Lloyd told CNN in a statement:
“HHS will continue to use the best scientific evidence available to improve the health of all Americans. HHS also strongly encourages the use of outcome and evidence data in program evaluations and budget decisions.”
More importantly, the resistriction is only applied to budget documents, so how will using words like “diversity” and “transgender” have any positive or negative effect on that?
It won’t, but liberals will never pass up the chance to attack Trump and claim he’s ruining the country.
Last month we reported on the effort by Austin Flake to sue former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio for malicious prosecution on animal cruelty charges.
Austin sprung from the loins of Never Trumper Senator Jeff Flake, a man whose approval rating in his home state is several digits south of dog vomit.
The son of Flake and his spouse were taking care of their in-laws’ dog kennel when the air conditioning went out causing 21 dogs that were crammed into a small room to roast to death.
The Flakes were charged but the case was dismissed by prosecutors after the actual owners of the kennel pleaded gutoy for not properly maintaining the AC.
Junior Flake then filed a lawsuit against Arpaio, claiming that the charges were politically motivated as a way to discredit his father, a man who does a good enough job of it himself.
On Thursday, a jury ruled against Flake and in favor of Arpaio, extending the family’s really, really bad year in politics.
A panel of eight jurors decided Thursday evening that plaintiffs in a civil trial against former Sheriff Joe Arpaio had not met their burden to prove the lawman maliciously prosecuted Arizona U.S. Sen. Jeff Flake’s son and his then-wife.
However, the U.S. District Judge Neil V. Wake will not issue a final verdict until the defense explains its failure to turn over documents that may have benefited the plaintiffs, according to a plaintiffs’ attorney.
Jurors began deliberating at 5 p.m. and reached a verdict later in the evening, when the courthouse was closed.
Arpaio and plaintiffs’ attorney Stephen Montoya confirmed the outcome to The Arizona Republic.
The ruling caps a six-day trial that featured two of Arizona’s most prominent Republican names.
The case centers on a June 2014 tragedy, in which 21 dogs died of heat exhaustion while kenneled at a home outside of Gilbert.
Flake’s attorney released the following statement:
The struggle to hold government officials accountable has always required a steep, perilous climb. Although we disagree with the jury’s verdict, we are grateful we had the opportunity to force former Sheriff Arpaio and his subordinates at Maricopa County to account for their indisputably reckless conduct. Near the end of the trial, we discovered that the County failed to turn over documents that might have helped us prove our case. The Court has ordered the County to explain its failure and indicated that it will not enter a final judgment in the case until a satisfactory explanation is provided. We will access our future options in this fight when the County complies with the Court’s Order.
Sheriff Joe should get on the phone with his lawyers and consider filing a lawsuit against the Flakes for their own politically motivated scam intended to discredit him.

California democrat Jackie Speier is claiming that she heard rumors that President Trump will fire special council Robert Mueller on December 22. She doesn’t explain where this information comes from and liberals are certainly known for being full of crap, but that hasn’t stopped the Resistance from taking this information as fact. As such, all of the lefty crybabies who still can’t get over last year’s election are planning to shut the entire country down. Again, this is not something that is explained in any way, but as I said, liberals are full of crap.
This starts with law professor and liberal media pundit Seth Abramson who sent out the alarm:
(THREAD) There’s now a rumor in Congress that Trump plans to fire Special Counsel Mueller on December 22. If this happens, it will trigger a constitutional crisis. This thread explains what’s happening and what to do—please read and share it widely.
23/ If this happens, you can expect peaceful disruptions in American life for *some time*. Mass protests that block highways and buildings and shut down parts of cities; mass walkouts from jobs and schools; a media atmosphere in which only one story—this one—can be or is covered.
Shit, if both Patton Oswald and George Takei are going to take down the country, America doesn’t stand a chance. Wait a second, these two couldn’t shut down a Starbucks, let alone the whole country.
Heres a few thoughts on this: If the Resistance actually thinks they can shut down the US by taking to the streets, they are as dumb as they are crazy. Even a massive protest would just be met by riot police and a temporary nuisance would be put down rather quickly. In a worse case scenario of widespread nationwide protests, Governors or even the President could declare martial law, send in the troops, and end the insurgency without much trouble.
And what these lefties are calling for is an attempt to overthrow the government. Talk like this is called sedition and is a very serious crime. I don’t think there is anyone out there who thinks snowflake liberals are actually going to do anything but bitch on Twitter, but even suggesting an overthrow of the government and/or encouraging others to do so is a federal offense.
I would say to the Resistance: Bring it fools. Though they are loud and obnoxious, the Resistance makes up a very small portion of the population. If they think they can take on every cop in the country, the entire military, and half the country who thinks they are idiots, they are in for one serious ass-whooping.
Julian Assange Reveals “Amazing Plot By U.S. Intelligence” To Impose “Blockade” On WikiLeaks
December 17, 2017 by Joshua Caplan
It’s no secret U.S. intelligence agencies have been on a warpath against WikiLeaks for years. The self-described ‘international non-profit organization that publishes secret information and news leaks provided by anonymous sources,’ has especially been under the CIA’s hot, white lights since publishing the emails of Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta and the Democratic National Committee.
According to WikiLeaks boss Julian Assange, the Deep State has struck a blow to the organization’s tax structure.
“We have discovered an amazing plot by U.S. intelligence against the foundation which provides @WikiLeaks donors with tax deductibility in the EU (Wau Holland Stiftung). It comes after our series on the CIA, #Vault7. In press next week,” tweeted Assange on Sunday.

“You can also purchase @WikiLeaks merchandise at http://WikiLeaks.shop using a variety of methods including an extensive list of crypto-currencies,” concluded Assange.

News of the “banking blockade,” comes after The Gateway Pundit‘s Jim Hoft reported that Assange still maintains Deep State operatives aim to replace President Donald Trump with Vice-President Mike Pence.
“Trump’s political capital has been openly looted for months now by GOP, CIA, Netanyahu, Goldman Sachs, etc. Game is clearly to extract as many unpopular positions as possible (e.g tax cuts for the super rich), push the resulting political corpse to Mueller & install Mike Pence,” tweeted Assange on Thursday.

The next day, Assange followed up on his warning by tweeting an article by The Weekly Standard chronicling liberal mainstream media’s historic corruption.
Quoting the article, Assange tweeted, ““I remember Watergate pretty well, and I don’t remember anything like this level of journalistic carelessness back then. The constant stream of ‘bombshells’ that turn into duds is doing much more to damage the media than anything Trump could manage.””

Senator-elect Doug Jones (D-Ala.) made a stunning admission over the weekend about the sexual misconduct allegations raised against President Donald Trump.
What did he say?
Numerous women have publicly accused Trump of sexual misbehavior, but according to Jones, who appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday, it’s time to “move on” from the allegations because Americans decided their validity in 2016.
“Where I am on that right now is that those allegations were made before the election,” Jones said. “And so people had an opportunity to judge before that election. I think we need to move on and not get distracted by those issues. Let’s get on with the real issues that are facing the people of this country right now.”
“I don’t think the president ought to resign at this point,” he explained.
Numerous Democratic members of Congress, including Sens. Kristen Gillibrand (N.Y.) and Cory Booker (N.J.), have either called on Trump to resign in light of the allegations or for Congress to investigate the allegations.
According to the Huffington Post, at least 21 women have accused Trump of sexual wrongdoing. However, he has maintained his innocence.
Sen.-elect Doug Jones of Alabama doesn’t join the several Senate Democrats calling for President Trump to step down: “I think we need to move on and not get distracted by those issues … I don’t think the President ought to resign right now” #CNNSOTUhttps://t.co/IjtmPvu6SK
Now that tax reform is only days away – barring another congressional catastrophe – the Democrats are steaming mad and none more so than closet communist Bernie Sanders.
In normal times, a blathering socialist from Vermont who once wrote an essay suggesting that women are turned on by rape would not merit the time of day on the Sunday morning gabfests.
But in these days of the war on President Trump, even Sanders is treated as a revered elder statesman as he spews DNC talking points and calls for wealth confiscation to finance his pipe dream free stuff scams.
This Sunday, the ersatz Eugene V. Debs dropped by CBS’s “Face the Nation” to promise that whatever tax cuts that have been negotiated will be subject to cancellation the minute the Dems regain control.
Sen. Bernie Sanders said Sunday that corporate taxes would likely roll back up if Democrats retake control of the Senate in the 2018 midterm elections.
Congress is poised this week to pass a sweeping tax overhaul that would drop the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent. But Sanders, an independent from Vermont who caucuses with the Democrats, said that would change under a Democratic majority.
“Absolutely, yes. In my view, absolutely,” he said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
“We’re going to take a very hard look at this entire tax bill and make it a tax bill that works for the middle class and working families, not for top 1 percent and large multinational corporations,” he said.
Opponents of the bill, Sanders said, “did everything that we could” to stop it.
Crazy Bernie is full of crap that it will only be corporate tax cuts that get reversed, he is a dyed in the wool Marxist who honeymooned in Russia and the only way that his socialist utopia of free shit for lazy, entitled millennials can be made possible is through sticking it to those who worked for their money to underwrite the indolent lifestyles of his young followers.
A chicken in every pot sounds nice but ignores that the man with more than one chicken will have them all stolen from him by corrupt and oppressive government goons. Communism 101 or as we call it here in America –Bernie Sanders Guide to Political Revolution.
If the Democrats do flip the Senate next November, Republicans, business owners and corporations can thank Mitch McConnell for making sure that the Alabama seat ended up in the hands of a Democrat instead of an independent-minded outsider like Roy Moore.

Nevada democrat Harry Reid is thankfully retired, but his legacy of corruption and lunacy lives on. Thanks to a flurry of reports we now know that the former Senate Majority Leader wasted $22 million looking for UFOs. Not only is that a lot of money but that’s a lot of our money that went to essentially make the TV show The X-Files a real thing. The best news is, that much of this cash went to enrich a good friend of the lunatic liberal.
Politico was one of the many sources to break this story yesterday:
The Pentagon, at the direction of Congress, a decade ago quietly set up a multi-million dollar program to investigate what are popularly known as unidentified flying objects—UFOs
The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program, whose existence was not classified but operated with the knowledge of an extremely limited number of officials, was the brainchild of then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), who first secured the appropriation to begin the program in 2009 with the support of the late Senators Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii)
While the Politico story mostly focuses on how awesome they think Reid is for playing Agent Mulder with our cash, they slip this in like it’s an afterthought and not the most important point:
Reid initiated the program, which ultimately spent more than $20 million, through an earmark after he was persuaded in part by aerospace titan and hotel chain founder Bob Bigelow, a friend and fellow Nevadan who owns Bigelow Aerospace, a space technology company and government contractor. Bigelow, whose company received some of the research contracts, was also a regular contributor to Reid’s re-election campaigns, campaign finance records show, at least $10,000 between 1998 and 2008.
Hey, that’s not a bad investment for Bigelow. He gives Harry Reid 10 grand and gets millions back on a government contract. Who says democracy doesn’t work?
Because Reid is still a complete asshole, he tweeted out some support for this story, ignoring the corruption aspects of course:
If anyone says they have the answers, they’re fooling themselves.
We don’t know the answers but we have plenty of evidence to support asking the questions. This is about science and national security. If America doesn’t take the lead in answering these questions, others will.
Well, we have some of the answers. Reid stole our money in the name of “science” and “national security” to make his rich friend a little richer. The only ones fooling themselves about this are Reid and democrats who really believe that our money belongs to them to spend on whatever stupid thing they want.
In related news, Reid also “earmarked” 50 million taxpayer dollars to find Bigfoot. The program was suspended when all evidence pointed to former FLOTUS Michelle Obama.
Okay, maybe that last bit wasn’t entirely true. Maybe.
President Donald Trump called Friday for reforming and strictly enforcing immigration law, in light of the failed terror attack in New York and increased crime across the country committed by violent gangs.
Trump said he had directed federal law enforcement to work with local police to “destroy criminal cartels, like the savages of MS-13,” and that this year there has been a 83 percent increase in arrests of MS-13 members and associates.
MS-13 is violent transnational gang whose motto is “kill, rape, control.”
“To any member of MS-13 listening, I have a message for you: We will find you. We will arrest you. We will jail you. We will throw you the hell out of the country,” Trump said, speaking at the graduation ceremony for the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Virginia.
“I mean, somehow, I like it better than jail. Jail, we have to take care of them. Who the hell wants to take care of them? … But these are killers, these are people that are sadists in many cases. We don’t want them.”
The president also called for ending sanctuary cities, localities that refuse to assist federal immigration authorities.
“Our cities should not be sanctuaries for criminals; they should be sanctuaries for Americans,” Trump said. “It is our duty to serve the hard-working citizens of our country who raise our families, cherish our values, salute our flag, and make this land our home.”
