Basically, she lied.

Remember the yearbook Beverly Young trotted out when she accused Alabama senatorial candidate Roy Moore of having sexually assaulting her behind a diner when she was 16?

As noted by Legal Insurrection, the yearbook allegedly containing Moore’s signature “immediately raised questions” — many of them, in fact.

Fast forward to Friday morning, when Young appeared in an ABC News interview in which she “acknowledged adding information to the yearbook entry.”

Namely, the date and location:

According to Breitbart, ABC News wound up making light of Nelson’s huge admission, saying, “Nelson admits she did make notes to the inscription. But the message was all Roy Moore.”

The whole rather disgusting spiel by ABC News can be heard below:

“How can anyone believe anything she says after admitting to such a thing?” asked Breitbart’s John Nolte. “Early reports are that Nelson and Allred will produce an expert to prove the rest of the yearbook is not a forgery. So a proven forger is bringing in her own expert. What an insult to the people of Alabama.”

Indeed.

That said, I look forward to hearing what absurd excuses the virulently venomous “Never Trump” types conjure up to explain away Young’s duplicity.

Hint: Ya’ll wouldn’t even be in this position had you not be so quick to reach a judgment against Moore, despite his fervent denials that he ever did anything wrong.

And despite mounting evidence that this whole fiasco has been nothing but a well-orchestrated witch hunt rooted in politics, not facts.

Actress Roseanne Barr slammed Sen. Al Franken (D-MI) during his resignation speech on Thursday, pointing out that the disgraced Democrat was “blaming Trump for his being a pervert.”

“I, of all people, am aware that there is some irony in the fact that I am leaving, while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office,” Franken said during his speech on the Senate floor.

In response, the 65-year-old Roseanne star wrote on Twitter that Franken was “blaming Trump for his being a pervert.”

The Minnesota Democrat has been accused by eight separate women of sexual misconduct, primarily in the form of groping and harassment.

Barr, who was the 2012 presidential nominee of the California-based left-wing Peace and Freedom Party, has previously defended President Trump from relentless media attacks, which she claimed were really “disguised” attacks on American voters.

“Every single attack on @POTUS is really a disguised attack on American voters who rejected Obama-Clinton-Bush’s bleeding of R treasury,” Barr tweeted in March.

Barr was also a prominent critic of Hillary Clinton, saying in the run-up to last year’s election that America would be “so lucky” if Trump won “because then it wouldn’t be Hillary.”

In May, it was revealed that Barr’s hit 1990’s television show Roseanne, which revolves around the lives of a working-class family from Illinois, would return for another eight-episode season.

President Donald Trump received one of the greatest honors of his young presidency when a Pearl Harbor survivor and veteran broke out in song about the Japanese attack during presidential remarks at the White House.

According to Fox News Insider, Trump was making his planned statement in front of a handful of veterans on Saturday, the 76th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

“One great battle cry could be heard by American friends and foes alike: ‘Remember Pearl Harbor,’” Trump said during his speech.

He then turned to the veterans and asked, “Have you heard that before a few times?”

That’s when the veteran, who was standing closest to President Trump, started belting “Remember Pearl Harbor” by Sammy Kaye.

“Let’s remember Pearl Harbor as we go to meet the foe. Let’s remember Pearl Harbor, as we did the Alamo. We will always remember how they died for liberty. Let’s remember Pearl Harbor, and go on to victory,” he sang.

The man was identified by the veterans website Task & Purpose as retired Senior Chief Quartermaster Michael “Mickey” Ganitch.

Trump immediately turned to look at Ganitch taking in every moment of the performance.

Trump absolutely loved it: A song of defiance, remembrance of the past, and a vow to be victorious in the future. Is there a better way of defining Trump’s vision of the presidency?

You could truly tell that the veteran was passionate and meant every word he sang.

The president tapped Ganitch’s shoulder and smiled.

“Boy what can I say?” the president laughed following the song. “He’s a very shy person too,” he joked, before carrying on with his planned remarks.

Take a look at the incredible moment below:

Ganitch was all smiles as Trump acknowledged his song.

Not only did he get to sing for the president, but he also had the opportunity to remind Americans of the sacrifices of those during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

And as Task & Purpose points out, Ganitch, who served on the USS Pennsylvania, has a Pearl Harbor story all his own. As a player on the Pennsylvania’s football team, his plans for that Sunday morning didn’t even include being on the ship.

“With the Pennsylvania crew due to face off against the USS Arizona for the fleet football championship on that fateful morning, Ganitch and his shipmates were decked out in their football gear when the Pennsylvania sounded a general quarters alarm in response to the first air attack by Japan just before 8 a.m.”

He reported for duty in his football uniform, except for the cleats and the helmet.

We will never forget those sacrifices. Thank you to all our service men and women who fight every day to keep the rest of us safe.

The media is predictably all in a snit over the fact that President Donald Trump has decided to acknowledge Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and move the U.S. Embassy there, which is to be expected.

First, they’d probably get themselves in a snit if he suddenly declared the whole country Palestinian territory just because he said it. Second, however, he acknowledged something that nobody in the liberal media wants to — Jerusalem has long been the administrative and cultural capital of Israel, no matter what its enemies want to say.

And in a Thursday appearance on Wolf Blitzer’s CNN Show “The Situation Room” (which doesn’t really even seem like a “room” so much as a brightly lit hyper-artificial studio; talk about fake news), U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley let Blitzer, the liberal media, and everyone else questioning the decision have it.

“This is just a reality check,” Haley said, dropping a hammer on liberal objections to Trump’s announcement. “This is nothing that anybody didn’t already know.”

Blitzer, of course, couldn’t accept that reality.

“But it is significant, Ambassador, that you’re not willing to say that the Old City of Jerusalem or East Jerusalem is part of Israel,” Blitzer said. “You say that’s still open to negotiation. Is that what I’m hearing?”

(The Old City and East Jerusalem, for those unaware, is where Jewish historical sites like the Temple Mount and the Western Wall as well as Muslim historical sites like the al-Aqsa Mosque are located. For Christians, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre within the area marks the site of the Crucifixion.)

“Wolf, why would the United States say that?” Haley said. “When we’re pushing a peace process, that’s really for the Palestinians and the Israelis to decide. If we decided that, we would be picking a side.

“There’s been a lot of time and effort that’s been put in by the administration to talk to both sides to bring them to the table. The last thing we’re going to do is pick what we think should happen, because at the end of the day, Palestinians and Israelis need to live together and live in a situation they settle together.”

Blitzer then gave the Palestinian side of things, which is that by merely recognizing what everyone knew — that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel — Trump had unleashed chaos.

“You say, Ambassador, you want the peace process to move forward,” Blitzer said.

“The Palestinian chief negotiator, Saeb Erekat, says the U.S. can no longer play any role in the peace process … I’m quoting, ‘President Trump just destroyed any policy of a two state solution.’ Your reaction?”

Haley was dismissive.

“Any time we make a decision, we get positive and negative reactions,” she said. “That’s going to happen. At the end of the day, the Palestinians, they need to make sure, ‘we stop violence, we stop any sort of issues’ on both sides, Israelis and the Palestinians.”

“The peace process is not going to stop … they are too far down the road,” Haley said.

This is true. For all of the liberal tears being shed, for all the rocks being thrown in “Arab street,” for all of the Muslim leaders issuing harsh condemnations and vague threats, the fact remains that Trump’s announcement was nothing more than acknowledging reality. Period.

And Nikki Haley made sure that Wolf Blitzer knew that.

The Department of Justice is launching a federal investigation into Planned Parenthood’s practices and its alleged involvement in the sale of body parts of aborted babies.

Justice Department Assistant Attorney General for Legislative Affairs Stephen Boyd has formally requested unredacted documents from the Senate Judiciary Committee, reports Fox News. According to the news report, the letter requesting the documents – sent to committee chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and ranking member Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) – “is a rare confirmation of a federal investigation.”

“The Department of Justice appreciates the offer of assistance in obtaining these materials, and would like to request the Committee provide unredacted copies of records contained in the report, in order to further the Department’s ability to conduct a thorough and comprehensive assessment of that report based on the full range of information available,” Boyd wrote in the letter obtained by Fox News.

“At this point, the records are intended for investigative use only—we understand that a resolution from the Senate may be required if the Department were to use any of the unredacted materials in a formal legal proceeding, such as a grand jury,” he added.

Breitbart News reported at the end of September that the FBI’s assistant director of the Office of Congressional Affairs had sent a letter to Grassley, informing him the agency was in receipt of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s criminal referrals of Planned Parenthood and its partners in the fetal tissue procurement industry.

“We can confirm the Criminal Investigative Division (CID) of FBI Headquarters received your referrals and sent them to the relevant FBI field offices for review and whatever action is deemed appropriate,” the FBI’s Gregory Brower wrote to Grassley in June.

In his correspondence, Brower apologized to Grassley “for the delay in responding to your inquiry” and indicated receipt of the chairman’s letter, dated April 24, to both former FBI Director James Comey and Attorney General Jeff Sessions “concerning criminal referrals you made on December 13, 2016, to the FBI and Department of Justice.”

Both the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House Select Investigative Panel on Infant Lives conducted expansive investigations into Planned Parenthood and its partners in the biomedical procurement industry. The investigations concerned allegations of profiteering from the sale of fetal body parts that arose from an undercover video series exposé by the Center for Medical Progress (CMP).

The sale or purchase of human fetal tissue is a felony punishable by up to ten years in prison or a fine of up to $500,000 (42 U.S.C. 289g-2).

The Senate Judiciary Committee referred Planned Parenthood to both the FBI and the Justice Department for investigation and possible criminal prosecution.

Based on its findings, the Judiciary Committee’s Majority Staff Report concluded that Planned Parenthood’s partners in the biomedical procurement industry paid the abortion chain’s affiliates for the body parts of aborted babies “and then sold the fetal tissue to their respective customers at substantially higher prices than their documented costs.”

“The Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) initially had a policy in place to ensure its affiliates were complying with the law, but the affiliates failed to follow its fetal tissue reimbursement policy,” the report continued. “When PPFA learned in 2011 of this situation, PPFA cancelled the policy rather than exercise oversight to bring the affiliates back into compliance. Thus, PPFA not only turned a blind eye to the affiliates’ violations of its fetal tissue policy, but also altered its own oversight procedures enabling those affiliates’ practices to continue unimpeded.”

“This is long-awaited, good news,” says Abby Johnson, who heads And Then There Were None – an organization that helps abortion industry workers leave their jobs.

“Planned Parenthood has actively participated in illegal activity, selling the body parts of aborted babies in exchange for profit,” she said in a statement sent to Breitbart News. “They’ve lied to the very women they purport to fight for. I saw it first-hand when I worked for the abortion giant and yet, they still manage to obtain over half a billion dollars a year in our tax dollars. Congress should immediately halt any money to the abortion giant until the FBI completes their investigation.”
