Mayor to critics questioning her lavish personal spending: “Shame on you…you’re attacking a black woman in power”…February 9, 2024 (15 hours ago)

Apparently, it’s more important to be a black woman in power than it is to be a decent, hardworking leader. That seems to be the message coming from the rather flashy mayor of Dolton, Illinois, who is under fire for her lavish personal spending.

Tiffany Henyard is stirring up quite the drama with her love for the finer things in life—which is fine, but it seems that Ms. Henyard may be purchasing her goodies on the taxpayer’s dime. Henyard’s got a very “flashy” style, with her nails and hair always all “done did” up. The town’s trustees are raising eyebrows over her lavish spending and when they called her out, the fireworks started. Henyard, who some might say got her gig more for ticking the “DEI boxes” than actual skills, didn’t just snap back; she went full-on diva on them. She accused the trustees, who are all black, of picking on a “black woman in power,” and made it crystal clear she da big boss woman.

Caught on video, this showdown is nothing short of eye-popping. Henyard’s “sassy” comeback is a live tutorial on how not to answer to fiscal responsibility. Popular X account that goes by the handle “Unlimited L’s” shared this shocking video of the mayor defending herself in what sounds like a DEI rant.

Dolton Mayor goes off on a group of trustees after being questioned about her over spending – I’m The LEADER!

You all forget I’M THE LEADER. They want to hear from the mayor. You all ain’t learned that yet”

“You all should be ashamed of yourselves because you all are Black… You all are Black!..And you all sitting up here beating and attacking a Black woman that’s in power…You all should be ashamed of yourselves”

Tiffany Henyard and other officials, according to township credit card records,spent over $67,000 on tripsto cities like Portland, Austin, Atlanta, and New York City

The expenses covered first-class flights and luxurious accommodations, including a stay at the Four Seasons hotel in Atlanta, which cost taxpayers over $9,000, and a bill of $13,000 in New York. These days,if you hire or elect a black woman, it’s for life. Good luck ever replacing them, you bigot.

Daily Mail:

The first female mayor of a tiny Illinois village has been slammed for ‘living like a royal’ at taxpayer expense bytaking a $300,000 salary and racking up huge expenses. Glamorous Tiffany Henyard was elected leader of Dolton, avillage of 20,000, in 2021, but has since come under fire for what many see as her excessive spending.

She regularly engages the services of a professional hair and makeup team and stylist before public appearances and photo shoots for the county’s taxpayer funded billboards, which often feature the 40-year-old in what have some see as shameless self-promotion. Henyard is always snapped in tasteful, expensive looking outfits. She has posted photos of herself getting out of chauffeur driven SUVS, with one Instagram post even appearing to show her with a dog laden with jewelry.

Henyard, who often refers toherself as ‘God’s favorite’, has now sparked further outrage by proposing a new law thatwould cap the next mayor’s salary at $25,000, unless she remains in the role, Fox 32 reports.

Many believe the proposal, which has been branded ‘illegal’ is an attempt to dissuade anyone from running against her in the 2025 race.Now trustees in her town have filed a lawsuit against her alleging forgery and claiming she withheld financial records. This is the same stellar “leader” who hired a child sex offender to inspect homes.

But through all the chaos, we’re meant to just sit back and relax because, hey, at least there’s a “black woman in power,” right? As if being the mayor of a small town in Illinois is the pinnacle of authority. For Tiffany, snagging that mayoral spot was hitting the jackpot, and now she’s cashing in at the taxpayers’ expense. And if anyone dares to challenge her, she’ll just play the race card, just like we’ve seen before. It’s become a predictable move in the DEI playbook.

Bragg Backtracks, Indicts Cop-Beating Illegal Aliens—Two Still at Large

'We have absolutely no tolerance for this despicable behavior…'

Posted by Luis Cornelio February 8, 2024

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has declared the criminal indictment of seven illegal aliens captured on video brutally assaulting two NYPD officers who were responding to reports of a disturbance in Times Square.

The indictments followed widespread condemnation directed at Bragg for his failure to secure bail for four individuals initially accused of participating in the cop beating. After their release, the individuals gestured their middle fingers at reporters outside the police precinct.

“The assault on our police officers in Times Square outraged and sickened me,” Bragg said in a press statement on Thursday. “We have absolutely no tolerance for this despicable behavior.”

Facing mounting criticism, Bragg defended the release of the illegal aliens without bail, asserting that video footage alone was insufficient evidence to identify the suspects. However, on Thursday, he stated that everyone involved had been identified before the indictment.

“Our joint investigation with the NYPD helped us determine the alleged roles of new individuals involved, including some who are charged with having committed the most violent conduct and have not yet been apprehended,” Bragg added. During a press conference, Bragg showcased the video and identified five out of the seven individuals. The last two remain at large, and their indictments are currently under seal.

Darwin Andres Gomez-Izquiel, Yorman Reveron and Kelvin Servita Arocha face charges of two counts of assault in the second degree and one count of obstruction of governmental administration in the second degree. Wilson Juarez and Yohenry Brito were charged with one count of tampering with physical evidence. Additionally, Juarez faces two counts of hindering prosecution in the third degree and Brito faces one count.

The initial release of the illegal aliens prompted bipartisan criticism against Bragg. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James, both Democrats, declared that Bragg should have sought bail for the accused individuals.

On Tuesday, 20 Republicans in the state Senate urged Hochul to remove Bragg from office over his initial failure to obtain bail for the illegal aliens.

American billionaires bankrolled crusade against natural gas

Climate activism happened even before Biden signed off on pause

Published February 8, 2024 at 3:17pm

American billionaires bankrolled an activist campaign targeting liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals that influenced the White House’s decision to pause new and pending approvals for the projects, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The philanthropic organizations of theRockefeller family and Democratic megadonor Michael Bloombergcumulatively provided millions of dollars to activists who pressured Biden administration officials to crack down on LNG export hubs over the past several years, according to the WSJ. The activists ultimately got their way on Jan. 26, when the White House announced that the administration would pause new project approvals as the Department of Energy (DOE) widens the scope of its reviews to include climate impacts of LNG export terminals alongside considerations like national security and economic benefits.

The activists that received funding from charities controlled by Bloomberg and the Rockefellers were able to access White House and federal officials in places including Washington, Houston and Dubai, according to the WSJ. Officials in the Biden administration told the WSJ that the activist campaign influenced them to some extent.

Tlaib wants the Climate activists to get more aggressivehttps://t.co/GcJYanK5IH — Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) June 20, 2023

“They got our attention,” one anonymous senior official in the Biden administrationtold the WSJ regarding the activist campaign against LNG export hubs.

The Rockefeller Family Fund established theFunder Collaborative on Oil and Gas in 2018to encourage funders of green activism to step up their focus on the American oil and gas industry, according to the WSJ. In 2019, the Funder Collaborative on Oil and Gas reportedly communicated with other non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to gauge interest in a wider push to confront the U.S. LNG industry.

The billionaire-backed charities identified local activists already fighting LNG development in areas like the Gulf Coast, and then started supporting them financially, according to the WSJ. “Grassroots” activists involved in the campaign were able to access officials like Senior Adviser to the President John Podesta, Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm and DOE Office of Economic Impact and Diversity Director Shalanda Baker.

The administration was also reportedly influenced by “new science” on the potential climate impacts of LNG terminals, according to the WSJ. Though the report does not specify which study or studies may have impacted decision-makers, it is possible that the science referenced in the WSJ’s report is a recent paper by Cornell University Prof. Robert Howarth that has received considerable attention from corporate media outlets and eco-activist organizations, according to Politico.

Biden Cried ‘Book Ban,’ Then Pressured Amazon To Ban His Opponents From World’s Biggest Bookstore

By: Kylee Griswold February 09, 2024

Democrats and their accomplices in the media have expended an awful lot of ink, breath, and energy trying to convince voters that people on the right want to “ban books.” The leftist firestorm attacks concerned parents working to eradicate pornography and other age-inappropriate books from taxpayer-funded schools and libraries. These works include titles such as All Boys Aren’t Blue, which contains descriptions of rape, incest, and pedophilia, and Gender Queer, which shows graphic depictions of oral sex, masturbation, and homosexual acts.

Democrat activists have come out in full-throated defense of explicit sexual content for children and likened conservatives who oppose it to Nazis who want to burn books. Last month, MSNBC host Joy Reid grilled the co-founder of Moms for Liberty about why parents should have any say in how their tax dollars are used and argued that kids who identify as LGBT “feel seen” by stories about child rape.

One Democrat governor ironically argued that Republican efforts to shield children from age-inappropriate content are “castrating them.” President Joe Biden has also smeared Republicans for “banning books,” and even announced during “pride month” that he would appoint a “book ban coordinator” to make sure schools weren’t removing filth from their shelves.

That’s why it was so ridiculous to learn this week that all while Democrats were shrieking about pornography “book bans,” theBiden White House was actively “pressuring” Amazon, the world’s largest bookseller, to nuke books that raised concerns about experimental Covid-19 shots. It’s a pretty good betthat’s not the only topicthe White House pressuredAmazon to ban, either.

According to internal documents and emails subpoenaed by Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee, senior Biden official Andy Slavitt, who pressured Facebook to censor speech, waspushing Amazon to ban books disagreeing with Democrat policies.

Because Slavitt didn’t like the “concerning” results that turned up when he searched Amazon books for “vaccines,” he emailed the corporation on March 2, 2021, to ask to whom Biden officials could speak about “the high levels of propaganda and misinformation and disinformation of [sic] Amazon.” The vaccine debate was, and is still, ongoing. But the White House was mad that Amazon didn’t slap a warning from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention onto books that stepped out of line from the government’s Covid claims.

At first, Amazon opted not to manually censor books. But as House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan wrote on X, it wasn’t “out of any commitment to free speech, butbecause doing so would be ‘too visible’ to the American public and likely to spur criticism from conservative media.” Amazon noted it was already taking heat for censoring Ryan T. Anderson’s book on the transgender debate, When Harry Became Sally, the month prior.

The White House fired back, irritated that Amazon didn’t editorialize its book product pages with context tags, the way X and Facebook propagandist “fact-checkers” do. As Jordan pointed out, the administration couldn’t have Americans thinking for themselves.

Biden’s team was so demanding that by the time Amazon met with White House officials the next week, the company’s No. 1 question was, “Is the Admin asking us to remove books?” And the demands apparently worked. March 9, the same day as Amazon’s meeting with administration officials, it opted not to “promote” books the Democrat administration didn’t like. Just a few days later, it said it was looking into other steps “to reduce the visibility” of books that ticked off the Biden regime.

So just to be clear, at the same time the propaganda press and Democrats were crying “book ban” because rightly concerned parents were trying to eradicate taxpayer-funded gay porn from school libraries, theBiden administration was colluding with the world’s biggest bookstoreto bury non-leftist viewpoints from sight.

(WTF did the WH, President or that Admin get authority to ban books, they are totally disobeying what the court told them in the Social Media decision. They force people to take them to the SC and then they just do it again.)
