Carpetbagging: Hollywood Celebs Join Fundraising Effort for Democrat Candidates Running in Rural Districts


Left-wing Hollywood actors-turned activists Rosie O’Donnell, Debra Messing, and Mark Hamill are among the celebrities pushing an effort to raise money for Democrat congressional candidates in Wisconsin.

Coyote Ugly and Angel Has Fallen star Piper Perabo promoted the event put on for No Democrat Left Behind, an organization attempting to bolster Democrat congressional candidates in rural areas in the red-trending state of Wisconsin. Perabo announced her inclusion in the all-star leftist lineup on Twitter telling fans that she was “so excited” to be a part of the effort. “Rural communities are an important part of America. We’re in this together,” Perabo said.

Perabo will be accompanied by stars including Star Wars icon Mark Hamill, Will & Grace star Debra Messing, former left-wing talk show host Rosie O’Donell, actress Kristen Johnston, and others. Some of the celebrity event backers took to Twitter to promote the event.

Perabo and her compatriots with No Democrat Left Behind are not the only Hollywooders dropping into Wisconsin to push Democrat candidates. The cast of the 20-year-old left-wing political drama, The West Wing, also announced their efforts in Wisconsin.

In an August 16 message to his Twitter followers, West Wing star Bradley Whitford described raising money to depose President Trump as something “near and dear” to his heart. “Hey everybody, Brad Whitford here, I am thrilled to invite you to a West Wing Weekly event, supporting a cause near and dear to my heart, the Wisconsin Democratic Party,” Whitford said in his video. “We’re going to be focusing on all things Donna and Josh, because of course, Donna comes from Wisconsin and so does the guy who plays Josh.”

Fiona Apple Narrates Anti-ICE Short Film: These Agents Are ‘F**king Scary’


Leftist singer-songwriter Fiona Apple ramped up her left-wing activism by narrating a short film about the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency that urges people to film ICE agents while they make arrests.

“If the agents tell you to stop filming, you can tell them: ‘I am exercising my right to document this arrest,’” she explains. “Always keep your camera focused on law enforcement, not the person being arrested or their family members.”

Watch below: 

The video was produced in partnership with pro-immigration groups, including We Have Rights, Brooklyn Defender Services, and WITNESS. In the film, Apple is heard explaining that concerned citizens maintain the right to document the arrest of illegal immigrants.

Apple also gave an interview with Vulture where she discusses ICE, mail-in voting, and Kanye West’s presidential ambitions.

“ICE agents are fucking scary. I think so many people want to help and they don’t know how. They feel like they have no way of helping. But if you’ve got eyes, ears, a notepad, and a pencil, you can help,” She told the magazine. “I can’t believe this is happening. There’s so many awful things going on in this country. You read about places like Belarus and they’re like, ‘They teargassed the crowd and arrested people and disappeared people.’ But that’s the same shit that’s happening here now. It’s going to hell.”

Apple also revealed how the video makers struggled to find a voice for the Spanish version of the video after Jennifer Lopez showed no interest in the project. Last year, Lopez danced in the music video of Apple’s song “Criminal,” from which royalties were donated to the While They Wait fund, which provides legal services to illegal immigrants.

“We couldn’t find a Spanish speaker for a while,” Apple said. “We recorded it, and I tried to reach out to Jennifer Lopez to do it, but we didn’t hear back.”

The 42-year-old singer also weighed in on the issues surrounding this year’s presidential election, claiming Republicans were “taking advantage” of rap superstar Kanye West.

“I’m really scared about this mail thing. That’s fucking nuts to me. Taking mailboxes?! I’m scared about that,” she said. “I’m scared and appalled at the Republican lawyer trying to help out Kanye. That’s low. I really hate them for how they’re treating him, you know? And how they’re taking advantage of him to try and stay in power. They’re not helping him.”

Apple made headlines around the world in December 2016 when she publicly performed her anti-Trump Christmas song “Trump’s Nuts Roasting On an Open Fire.”

Ex-Florida Sheriff Scott Israel, Suspended Over Handling Of Parkland Shooting, Loses Bid For Reelection

Former Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel lost a primary bid to reclaim his office on Tuesday after Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended him in January 2019.

Broward Sheriff Gregory Tony declared victory in the Democratic contest, edging out Israel by about 4,000 votes in the six-candidate primary, according to WPTV. DeSantis appointed Tony to head the sheriff’s office after suspending Israel over failures related to the February 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla.

“I am deeply honored that Democratic voters have chosen me to lead the Broward Sheriff’s Office into a brighter, safer future,” Tony said in a statement. “We’ve come a long way in the last 18 months, but there is still much work to be done. Together, we’re reforming the sheriff’s office, promoting good deputies, and keeping our communities safer by embracing police reform. As your sheriff, I will work tirelessly to make this department a model for how a public safety agency can be effective, transparent, and accountable to our community. Let’s keep moving forward.”

Tony is expected to win the November election over Republican candidate Wayne Clark and independent Charles E. Whatley in the heavily Democratic district. Israel conceded the race in an interview with WSVN.

“The people have spoken, and I accept the decision of the voter,” Israel said. “I want the community to know that I poured my heart and soul into being the sheriff of Broward County, and I fought hard to protect everyone’s rights.”

Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students and relatives of the victims have spoken out vigorously against Israel throughout the election.

“Scott Israel’s failures led to the death of my daughter. He bragged about his ‘amazing leadership.’ He mocked my family in our fight for justice for years. But tonight righteousness won over the wicked,” tweeted Andrew Pollack, who lost a daughter in the 2018 shooting.

The Broward County Sheriff’s Office, the largest sheriff’s office in Florida, has been mired in controversy stemming from Israel’s handling of the Parkland shooting, which resulted in the deaths of 17 people and injuries to 17 others. Israel has been accused of contributing to the death toll by changing department policy to say deputies “may,” instead of “shall,” confront active shooters.

“‘May’ gave [deputies] the out not to enter,” said Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, a member of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission, in December 2018. “They decided to be cowards instead of heroes.”

In April 2018, hundreds of Israel’s own deputies turned on him as the Broward Sheriff’s Office Deputies Association held a “no confidence” vote that went overwhelmingly against the then-sheriff, 534 votes to 94, the first time the union had voted “no confidence” in a sheriff.

“[Israel] fails to listen to the people,” union President Jeff Bell said after the vote. “He fails to listen to the membership and he wants to blame everybody else for his problems.”

VIRAL VIDEO: Veteran Tells California County Lockdown Protests ‘Aren’t Going To Be Peaceful Much Longer,’ ‘Our Families Are Starving’

An explosive video that quickly went viral on social media shows a military veteran warning his California county government that the anti-lockdown protests will become revolutionary if businesses are no longer able to operate.

In the video, Carlos Piccata, who identifies himself as a veteran, teeters on the edge of total outrage as he warns the county government that the American people will not tolerate being locked down much longer.

“I’m pretty appalled at what’s going on,” he tells them in the video. “At first, we sat as concerned citizens that we all wanted to figure out how to best navigate our way through this whole COVID thing.  As we realize that it’s not quite as dangerous as we thought it would be, I was absolutely appalled at the cowardice.”

Piccata then chastised those present as cowards for wearing masks, saying that he’d “be hiding my face too if I was you for what you are doing.”

“This is absolutely horrendous what you’re doing to these people,” said Piccata. “I am a business owner and I’m telling you our families are starving. You guys can sit here with your jobs. You can sit here and get paid. You can fall asleep in your chair like that gentleman is doing behind his mask.”

His simmering rage readily apparent, Piccata then issued a dire warning: peaceful citizens will eventually cease being peaceful, asserting that “families are starving.”

“I’m telling you right now, that right now we are being peaceful,” he said. “And you better be happy that we are good citizens, that we are peaceful citizens. But it’s not going to be peaceful much longer. This isn’t a threat. I’m not a criminal. I’ve never been a criminal. But I’m telling you, good citizens are going to turn into real concerned and revolutionary citizens real soon.”

“And nobody else is going to say that. I’m probably the only person that has the balls to see what I’m saying right now,” he continued. “We are building, we are organizing, and will work with law-enforcement or without law-enforcement. But you won’t stop us when the time comes because our families are starving. I hope you open your ears, and you absolutely listen to what I’m saying because this is a warning for what’s coming. It’s not going to be peaceful much longer. It’s not going to be ra-ra,  it’s not going to be speeches, it’s not going to be gathering outside saying the Pledge of Allegiance, it’s not going to be waving flags, it’s going to be real.”

As he concluded his speech, Piccata recalled his time in the military and the terrible things he had to witness. Though he wished never to fight again, he said that he will reluctantly do so to “save this country.”

“If it has to be against our own citizens,  it will happen. And there is 1 million people like me. And you won’t stop us,” he concluded. “Open the county. Let our citizens do what they need to do. Let owners of businesses do what they need to do to feed their families. Take the masks off.  Quit masking and muzzling your children. The psychological damage you’re doing to them is horrible. I’ve had six friends kill themselves since it has happened. Veterans who have lost their jobs. How do you feel about being complicit in perpetuating that?”

In New Photos Bill Clinton Is Seen Getting Massage From Epstein Sex Trafficking Victim…


Via Daily Mail:

Clinton, then 56, had complained of having a stiff neck after falling asleep on Epstein’s infamous private jet, nicknamed The Lolita Express, while on a humanitarian trip with the pedophile to Africa in September of 2002.

Maxwell, who is now in prison on sex trafficking charges, repeatedly encouraged Davies to give Clinton a massage while the group was refueling at a small airport in Portugal after flying in from New York.

After Maxwell’s insistence, Clinton asked the twenty-something: ‘Would you mind giving it a crack?’

The images show Clinton dressed in a yellow button down shirt and beige slacks with his hands resting on his lap, as he leaned back while Davies knelt on a chair behind him for a better angle.

Palm Beach County Confirms Video Showing Ballot Envelopes Displaying Party Affiliation


The Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections confirmed that the ballot return envelopes in a viral video that appear to identify party affiliation of the voter are valid. Although, it claims different envelopes — which do not identify the party of the voter — are used in the general election.

A video posted by a woman named Tina Brown went viral this week, featuring Brown examining two ballot return envelopes — one which belonged to her Democrat brother and the other which belonged to her, a Republican. The envelopes, she observed, actually revealed their party affiliations. A “D” appeared within a series of numbers near the bar code of her brother’s return envelope, and an “R” appeared in the series of numbers on hers.

 

This is another reason I WILL VOTE IN PERSON!!!

Posted by Tina Higdon Brown on Monday, August 17, 2020

https://www.facebook.com/tina.h.brown.3/videos/3245688852133213/

“I just want to warn all the people who want to vote by mail — you know how they give you these sleeves inside, you know, and they tell you, ‘Oh don’t worry. Your vote is going to be, you know, protected. Nobody’s going to know anything. Blah Blah blah.’ Well guess what? That’s bullshit,” she said.

“Look at my brother’s, who’s a Democrat. It says 4212D. That’s Democrat. Then you go here because we’re the same address anyway — 4212R,” she continued, pointing to her envelope.

She added:

OK. So your vote is supposed to be protected. Nobody’s supposed to know what you’re voting for but yet they put ‘R’ right here and ‘D’ right there. So a postal person could see this if they’re a Democrat and say, “Oh that’s an R. Let’s toss it. Let’s just chuck it, and we’ll keep this one.”

https://www.facebook.com/tina.h.brown.3/videos/3245688852133213

While the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections confirmed the ballot return envelopes and their open party identification, it said the labels would not be there for general election ballot envelopes.

“Concerns have been raised by certain voters that having the party on the envelope leads to a possibility of postal employees tampering with or not delivering mail of voters of a particular party,” Palm Beach County’s Supervisor of Elections said in a statement following the video going viral:

It would be a federal crime for any post office employee to tamper with this process. We have received no such reports of anything like this happening Florida is a “Closed Primary” state, meaning voters can only vote for members of their party in a partisan race in the primary election. Because of this, voters are mailed ballots according to their party affiliation. For the General Election in November, voters can vote for candidates of any party, so there is only one ballot style in each precinct. Accordingly, there will be no indication on the ballot envelope as to the party of the voter.

Despite the statement, little has been done to address the concern of voters worried about the potential of voter fraud in the primary elections, given the nature of the primary return envelopes.

Critics have continued to sound the alarm on the danger of universal vote-by-mail, including President Trump.

“Again, absentee is great. It works. Like in Florida, they’ll do absentee. It really works,” Trump said. “But universal mail-in ballots is going to be a great embarrassment to our country.”

Candace Owens Will Sue Facebook over ‘Blatant Censorship’


BLEXIT founder Candace Owens will sue Facebook over its “blatant censorship” after the social media platform demonetized her page following her comments about senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) swearing into congress in 2017 as an “Indian-American.”

Candace Owens said that Facebook has suppressed her page after she commented her thoughts on senator Harris being chosen as Democrat nominee Joe Biden’s vice president for the upcoming November election.

“I am SO EXCITED that we get to watch [Kamala Harris], who swore into congress as an ‘Indian-American’, now play the ‘I’m a black a woman’ card all the way until November,” said Owens upon hearing the news. “Fun times!”

In her post, Owens included an Associated Press image from January 3, 2017, when Harris was sworn in as a senator. The Facebook post was later labeled as exhibiting “false information,” which was “checked by independent fact-checkers.”

According to “AP’s assessment,” in interviews, Harris “has regularly talked about how her mother, who was from India, raised her as Black.” The so-called “fact-checkers” now claim that “social media users are falsely suggesting that Harris only recently began identifying as Black.”

“I never said that Kamala never said she was black. I said she swore into Congress as Indian-American, which is true,” Owens told Breitbart News in a phone interview.

“It’s also my opinion that I’m looking forward to watching Kamala Harris, who swore into congress as an Indian-American now play the ‘I’m a black woman’ card,” continued Owens. “Fact checkers can’t tell me what I’m looking forward to. That is the blatant censoring of an opinion.”

The BLEXIT founder added that she will be suing Facebook over its censorship.

“Facebook is now hiding behind fact checkers to censor people,” she Owens. “They say it’s third party, but these people obviously have to be in coordination with Facebook.”

“This is election interference,” she added.

Last year, Owens was suspended on Facebook after posting about “liberal supremacists” and statistics regarding poverty rates in fatherless homes. Facebook later restored Owens’ account, claiming it had “made a mistake.”

Regarding her latest experience with Facebook censorship, Owens mentioned that Lead Stories,which was co-founded and by Alan Duke, a former CNN employee, has recently become a fact-checker for the social media giant.

“It’s a brand new company, and now it’s ‘fact checking’ for Facebook,” said Owens. “So we’re looking forward to having them through discovery.”

Owens also explained that she has been able to get “false information” ratings removed from her Facebook page, but that the process requires a lawyer for each instance of censorship.

“Every time you get ‘fact checked’ and censored, you have to get a lawyer to fight each instance,” Owens explained to Breitbart News. “Lead Stories eventually removed a false rating they gave me, but you have to go through a lawyer every time — and it’s costly.”

“All they [fact checkers] have to do is find one opposite opinion, and they can give you a false rating,” she added. “You have to send a legal letter every time to get it reversed.”

Owens added that she will be setting up a legal fund in order to cover the cost of taking on Facebook with her impending lawsuit.

“The censorship issue is real and we haven’t done enough to fight it as conservatives,” she said.
