Latina Influencer Tells Her 200k+ Followers Why She Left The Democrat Party

 

“I used to be a radical feminist slash liberal and to this day it's been the most embarrassing phase of my life like it still makes me cringe. People always ask me, hey, Shelley. What made you walk away from the Democratic party / liberalism?

 

And it wasn't one big, like, wake up call for me. Uh, it was a process:

It started when I first started paying taxes. I remember working 60 to 70 hour weeks only to get 30 to 40% of my paycheck cut from me. Realistically speaking, that's out of those 60 hours, I worked 20 of those for somebody else.

 

And then my hate for Democrats got a lot worse when I started looking into government spending and I realized how they spent our money.

 

For example, did you know that over the last 5 years, California spent over $20 billion on the homeless crisis.

 

Now if you live in LA, you're wondering, hey. Where does that money go?

 

Because it's only gotten worse. Right? It hasn't gotten any better.

 

When you ask the government, they can't tell you how those $20 billion were spent. They don't know where they went. They can't even tell you if those $20 billion were effective because they're incapable of balancing a budget instead of reining in their spending.

 

Do you know what they're doing? They're increasing taxes on the average American, meaning that more of the hours you work aren't gonna be for you or your family, they're gonna be for someone else.

 

And you know who's getting screwed the most? Middle class hardworking Americans.

 

And that's the tip of the iceberg.That's just a financial side, and it does get worse. When when it comes to what Democrats how they're trying to groom children in schools, it's disturbing.

 

Doesn't matter to me if you're gay, straight, or a fucking unicorn. I don't think the government should be involved in your everyday life or who you're attracted to at all. But there's absolutely no reason why the government should be trying to force sexuality into the curriculum and exposing young children and minors to sexuality at such a young age when it can actually harm their development.

 

There's absolutely no reason that the government and the school system should be transitioning a young minor, encouraging them to get surgeries, encouraging to get medical treatments that they can't take back without the consent or knowledge from the parents. Actually, they help hide this from the parents.

 

When I was a kid, when an adult said, hey, don't tell your parents, that was a giant red flag. Why are we just glossing it over now and acting like all of this is okay?California everyday tries to pass more laws to try and take away parental rights from their children.

 

And don't take this as me saying, hey, go be a Republican.I'm saying, hey, go vote for what you believe in because I don't believe in anything that the democratic party stands for anymore.

 

It's wrong. It's disturbing on so many levels

This Week In Lawfare Land: What Happens Next?

BY: STEVE ROBERTS AND OLIVER ROBERTSJUNE 14, 2024 =1/2==

 

Here’s the latest information you need to know about each prosecution Democrats are waging against the Republican presidential candidate.

With the end of the criminal trial in Manhattan, the lawfare against former President Donald Trump has now come to a halt. The criminal cases against Trump in Georgia, Florida, and Washington D.C. are delayed while motions and appeals are pending. It is highly unlikely any of these cases reach trial before the November election.

 

Following his conviction in New York last month, President Trump is still awaiting his sentencing hearing on July 11. Here’s the latest information you need to know about each case.

 

Manhattan, New York: Prosecution by DA Alvin Bragg for NDA Payment

How we got here: In this New York state criminal case, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg — who The New York Times acknowledged had “campaigned as the best candidate to go after the former president” — charged former President Donald Trump with 34 felony charges for alleged falsification of business records. Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen paid pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels shortly before the 2016 presidential election as part of a nondisclosure agreement in which she agreed not to publicize her claims that she had an affair with Trump (who denies the allegations). Nondisclosure agreements are not illegal, but Bragg claims Trump concealed the payment to help his 2016 election chances and in doing so was concealing a “crime.”

 

This criminal trial concluded on May 30, with the jury returning a guilty verdict on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. This case marks the first time a former U.S. president has been convicted of a felony. President Trump, who is expected to appeal the verdict, will be sentenced on July 11.

 

The conviction does not affect President Trump’s ability to run for president, though it may present complications with his ability to run a modern presidential campaign. For instance, if he were to receive a sentence including home confinement, he may be forced to request permission from a New York State bureaucrat for permission to travel to hold a campaign rally.

 

Latest developments: On June 10, in a response to U.S. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, the Department of Justice (DOJ) claimed that no emails were found between the DOJ’s leadership and District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office regarding the investigation into President Trump, despite the fact that one of the top prosecutors on the case was a former No. 3 at the Biden DOJ. On the same day, Trump met virtually with a New York City Probation Department official.

 

On July 12 — the day after President Trump’s sentencing hearing — District Attorney Bragg will testify before the U.S. House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. Matthew Colangelo, a former high-ranking DOJ official who helped lead the Trump investigation, will appear alongside Bragg.

 

Fulton County, Georgia: Prosecution by DA Fani Willis for Questioning Election Results

How we got here: The Georgia state criminal case is helmed by District Attorney Fani Willis and her team of prosecutors — which until recently included Nathan Wade, with whom Willis had an improper romantic relationship. Willis charged Trump in August 2023 with 13 felony counts, including racketeering charges, related to his alleged attempt to challenge the 2020 election results in Georgia. This case is currently stalled while the Georgia Court of Appeals hears an appeal on whether Willis should be disqualified from the case. The hearing is scheduled for Oct. 5, 2024.

 

Latest developments: On June 12, Fulton County prosecutors asked the Georgia Court of Appeals to dismiss Trump’s appeal regarding whether District Attorney Fani Willis should be disqualified from the case. Despite Willis’s romantic relationship with a prosecutor on the case, the prosecutors argued that Trump did not “provide enough evidence of misconduct by Willis to warrant any review.”

Southern District of Florida: Prosecution by Biden DOJ for Handling of Classified Documents

How we got here: In this federal criminal case, special counsel Jack Smith and federal prosecutors with Biden’s Justice Department charged former President Trump in June 2023 with 40 federal charges related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence. In early May, Judge Aileen Cannon postponed this trial indefinitely.

 

Latest developments: On June 10, Judge Aileen Cannon rejected Trump’s request to throw out the charges entirely but struck a paragraph from the indictment. The struck paragraph alleged that Trump showed a classified map to his PAC representative. Judge Aileen considered the allegation “prejudicial.”

 

After Judge Cannon’s ruling, Trump’s defense team filed another motion to dismiss, claiming that federal agents “destroyed exculpatory evidence.”

 

Washington, D.C.: Prosecution by Biden DOJ for Jan. 6 Speech

How we got here: In this federal criminal case, Special Counsel Jack Smith charged former President Trump with four counts of conspiracy and obstruction related to his actions on Jan. 6, 2021. President Trump’s lawyers have argued that immunity extends to actions taken by a president while acting in his official capacity and that, in any event, the First Amendment protects his right to raise legitimate questions about a questionable election process.

 

Latest developments: This case is currently stalled while awaiting a ruling from the Supreme Court on former President Trump’s immunity claim. The court generally issues its decisions by the end of June or early July.

 

New York: Lawsuit by A.G. Letitia James for Inflating Net Worth

How we got here: In this New York civil fraud case, Democrat Attorney General Letitia James — who campaigned on going after Trump — sued former President Trump under a civil fraud statute alleging that he misled banks, insurers, and others about his net worth to obtain loans, although the loans have been paid back and none of the parties involved claimed to have been injured by the deals. Following a no-jury trial, Judge Arthur Engoron — whom Trump’s lawyers have accused of “astonishing departures from ordinary standards of impartiality” — issued a decision in February ordering Trump to pay a $454 million penalty. Trump has appealed this decision and posted a required $175 million appeal bond.

 

Latest developments: This case mostly remains on hold

'Tainted and corrupted': Gingrich calls on GOP-led House to 'repudiate' Jan. 6 Committee

June 14, 2024

Both former Trump advisors Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon have been convicted of contempt of Congress over their refusal to comply with subpoenas from the committee.

 

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich on Friday excoriated the now-defunct House Jan. 6 Committee, contending that its findings were based on a "false product" and urging Congress to repudiate its activities.

 

"This committee, the J6 committee, was so fraudulent, that the current House should repudiate it, define it as an illegal or unethical, runaway investigation of no standing," Gingrich said on the John Solomon Reports podcast. "[A]nd [it] should send a letter to both the Department of Justice and to the appropriate judges, saying that any action based on the J6 committee should be considered null and void and that people like Steve Bannon should not be going to jail because they want to fight with a committee which was literally operating outside the law."

 

The Jan. 6 panel was an investigative committee run by the then-Democratic House that investigated the events of and leading up to the disturbance of at the U.S. Capitol on that date. The committee included only two Republicans, former Wyoming GOP Rep. Liz Cheney and former Illinois GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger, both of whom voted to impeach former President Donald Trump.

 

Both former Trump advisors Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon have been convicted of contempt of Congress over their refusal to comply with subpoenas from the committee. Navarro is currently in custody at a Miami federal prison while Bannon has been ordered to report to prison next month.

 

"I think this is such a tainted and corrupted process," he also said. "And I think it has to be repealed by the House, and repudiated by the House.And I think that the court and the Justice Department have to take into account that anybody who had a conflict with this committee was dealing with an out of control, illegal operation."

 

"Their findings are based on a totally false product," he said of the panel. "And the people who were subpoenaed by them who refused to agree, we now know, we're on the right, that in fact,what you have here is a runaway select committee. That was totally dishonest."

 

Gingrich took particular aim at Cheney, contending that she was motivated by her desire to take down the former commander-in-chief to such a degree, that she was willing to ignore the law to achieve that end.

 

"I mean, we've we're in a period here where the establishment is just sick. And we have a chance to correct the record historically,"he said. "And I think people will be astonished at how bad was Cheney was, how much she broke the rules, and how basically, she wanted to destroy Trump so badly, that she didn't care that in the process, she was breaking the laws."

 

"This committee destroyed all of its records. Now. That is, that is totally illegal, because we have others talk about Trump and Biden and their records.While I tell you what the J6 committee did, deliberately and methodically, was 1000 times worse than anything either Trump or Biden had done in terms of records,"he contended. (I disagree with him including Bidan in that category)

 

"They did it deliberately. And they did it because they didn't want other people to figure out what they've been doing,"he concluded

Trump hosts roundtable at Detroit church, says Biden has been "worst president for Black people"

Donald Trump made his first appearance in Michigan on Saturday since his "hush money" conviction.

 

Trump used back-to-back stops Saturday to court Black voters and a conservative group that has been accused of attracting white supremacists as the Republican presidential candidate works to stitch together a coalition of historically divergent interests in battleground Michigan.

 

Trump hosted an afternoon roundtable at an African American church in Detroit, then addressed the "People's Convention" of Turning Point Action, a group that the Anti-Defamation League says has been linked to a variety of extremists.

 

"What a turnout this is," Trump told a standing-room-only crowd of thousands of conservative activists packed into a massive convention hall. "With the help of everyone here today we're going to win the state of Michigan in November."

 

Roughly 24 hours before the former president spoke, well-known white supremacist Nick Fuentes entered the hall surrounded by a group of cheering supporters. Security quickly escorted him out, but Fuentes created political problems for Trump after attending a private lunch with the former president and the rapper formerly known as Kanye West at Trump's Florida estate in 2022.

 

The crowd was far smaller but also warmly receptive earlier when Trump visited 180 Church, a modest brick building with "Black Americans for Trump" signs affixed.Derelict vehicles sat nearby, while rap music and barbecue smoke wafted from a pre-event gathering organized by the Black Conservative Federation group.

 

"It's a very important area for us," Trump told the church crowd. He also promised to return "some Sunday" for a sermon.

 

Trump's weekend schedule underscores the evolving political forces shaping the presidential election this fall as he tries to deny Democratic President Joe Biden a second term.

 

"He's been the worst president for Black people," Trump said at the church. He also argued that the Black community "is being hurt" by people in the country illegally, adding, "They're invading your jobs."

 

Few states may matter more in November than Michigan, which Mr. Biden carried by less than 3 percentage points four years ago. And few voting groups matter more to Democrats than African Americans, who made up the backbone of Mr. Biden's political base in 2020. But now, less than five months before Election Day, Black voters are expressing modest signs of disappointment with the 81-year-old Democrat.

 

Michael Whatley, the new chairman of the Republican National Committee, told Michigan Republicans at a dinner Friday that the state could not be more important. "Let me be more blunt: If we don't win Michigan, we're not going to have Donald Trump in the White House," Whatley said, adding, "We are going to determine the fate of the world in this election."

 

Trump argues he can pull in more Black voters due to his economic and border security message, and that his felony indictments make him more relatable. At the church on Saturday afternoon, he repeatedly vowed to "bring back the auto industry" while also noting, "The crime is most rampant right here and African American communities."

 

Kimberly Taylor, who was invited on stage at the church by the Trump campaign, thanked Trump for "coming to the hood," while pastor Lorenzo Sewell said Mr. Biden attended an NAACP dinner in the city "but never came to the hood."

 

The pastor asked Trump how to "keep the Black dollar in the Black community" and the former president said that the Black community "needs to stop the crime."

 

Democrats are offering a competing perspective.KEK

"Donald Trump is so dangerous for Michigan and dangerous for America and dangerous for Black people," said Michigan Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist II, who is African American. He called it "offensive" for Trump to address the Turning Point conference, which was taking place at the same convention center that was "the epicenter of their steal the election effort."(??? is he admitting they stole 2020 at that center? Sounds like it.)

Indeed, dozens of angry Trump loyalists chanting "Stop the count!" descended on the TCF Center, now named Huntington Place, the day after the 2020 presidential election as absentee ballots were being counted. Local media captured scenes of protesters outside and in the lobby. Police prevented them from entering the counting area.

 

The protests occurred after Trump had tweeted that "they are finding Biden votes all over" in several states, including Michigan.

 

The false notion that Mr. Biden benefited from widespread voter fraud has been widely debunked by voting officials in both parties, the court system and members of Trump's former administration. Still, Trump continues to promote such misinformation, which echoed throughout the conservative convention over the weekend.

 

Speaking from the main stage, Turning Point founder and CEO Charlie Kirk falsely described the conference location as "the scene of a crime." Trump also used his speech to personally salute Kirk.

 

Such extreme rhetoric does not appear to have hurt Trump's standing with Black voters.

 

Among Black adults, Mr. Biden's approval has dropped from 94% when he started his term in January 2021 to just 55%, according to an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll published in March.

 

About 8 in 10 Black voters have an unfavorable opinion of Trump, with roughly two-thirds saying they have a "very unfavorable" view of him, according to an AP-NORC poll conducted in June.

 

Trump won 8% of the Black vote in 2020, according to AP VoteCast. And in what is expected to be a close election, even a modest shift could be consequential.

 

Omar Mitchell, a Detroit restaurant owner who participated in the church roundtable, said he supports Trump because "money was pumping" when he was president."In the old days, how we grew up was just because you're Black means you're a Democrat," Mitchell said. "That's out the door nowadays."

 

Elsewhere, thousands of conservative activists,most of them young and white, were eagerly awaiting Trump's keynote address Saturday night. (CBS freakin out that blacks love Trump, just like every other race, they just had to point out “white”)

 

Turning Point has emerged as a force in GOP politics in the Trump era, particularly among his "Make America Great Again" movement, despite the ADL's warning that the group "continues to attract racists."

 

"Numerous individuals associated with the group have made bigoted statements about the Black community, the LGBTQ community and other groups," the ADL, an international anti-hate group, wrote in a background memo. "While TPUSA (Turning Point USA) leaders say they reject white supremacist ideology, known white nationalists have attended their events."

 

Turning Point spokesperson Andrew Kolvet dismissed the ADL's characterization as "smears and lies." He added that Turning Point has been blocking Fuentes from attending its events for "years.""The ADL is a scourge on America, which sows poison and division. They've completely lost the plot," Kolvet said, describing the ADL's criticism as "a badge of honor."

 

Turning Point, long popular among Trump's MAGA fringe, is now a central player in mainstream Republican politics. The group's weekend speaking program featured a long list of established Republican politicians and former Trump counselor Steve Bannon, who is set to report to prison by July 1 to begin serving a four-month sentence for defying a U.S. House subpoena.

 

In his remarks Friday night, Vivek Ramaswamy, who has emerged as a fierce Trump ally since unsuccessfully challenging Trump for the GOP presidential nomination, called on conservatives to reject what he said was the Democrats' embrace of diversity."I am sick and tired of celebrating our diversity," Ramaswamy charged. "It means nothing unless there is something greater that unites us."

Put this video in the Smithsonian: Maine is handing out taxpayer-funded ‘boofing kits’ so addicts can shoot fentanyl up their butts…

June 16, 2024

 

This is one of those articles that might leave you questioning whether you’re still in America or if you’ve somehow landed in the Twilight Zone. Sadly, we don’t have a good answer for you. This unsettling tale comes straight from the great state of Maine, and it’s tough to know even where to start. So, let’s dive in. As you might be aware, the US is grappling with a severe opioid and fentanyl crisis, and places like Maine have been particularly slammed. The statistics are downright alarming.

 

And rather than striving to wean addicted people off this deadly drug, state officials and local groups are concocting new and perverse ways to introduce fentanyl into citizens’ systems. This latest method is called “boofing,” and it’s one of the sickest, most depraved tactics you’ll ever come across. Yes, it’ll have you thinking you’ve stepped right into the Twilight Zone, but even the Twilight Zone wouldn’t be this repugnant and evil. So, what is “boofing?” Well, it’s the act of shooting fentanyl up your bum, and Maine taxpayers are footing the bill.

 

The Maine Wire:

Maine’s taxpayer-funded “harm reduction” specialists call it “boofing” or “booty dumping,” but those are just pleasant euphemisms referring to the practice of sticking heroin, fentanyl, or meth up your butt.

 

Maine Access Points, a taxpayer-funded nonprofit based in Bangor, as well as the city of Portland’s city-run needle distribution center are both offering extensive how-to guides and — even anal injection kits — to help drug users squirt narcotics into their anuses.

 

In Portland, the “Portland Public Health Boofing Kit” comes with a needleless syringe and an informational flyer explaining the proper technique for putting drugs up your butt.

 

First, users are instructed to find a safe and private spot to “boof your drugs.”

Then, you mix your drugs in a tin with saline and wipe your hands and anus clean.

 

“Use the provided lube packet to coat the outside of the syringe, this will make insertion easier,” the flyer reads. The tin, saline, syringe, lube and wipes are all provided in the kit.

 

“Lay on your side with your knees pulled up in a fetal position, or however is most comfortable. Insert the syringe into your rectum,” the flyer says, adding that the syringe need not go in all that far.

 

Once the user has just the tip in, they’re instructed to push the syringe plunger and “release your mixture” into the rectum. Importantly, the guide advises to “let the syringe stay there for a minute so nothing leaks out.”

 

By now, you might be wondering why, in the world, US states are using taxpayer dollars to encourage people to inject fentanyl into their rear ends, right? Well, it turns out our state officials have pegged “boofing” as a delightful alternative to smoking or hunting for a pesky vein. The Maine Wire piece goes on:

 

According to the flyer, boofing is an alternative way to use drugs if your usual injection sites are no longer viable or your lungs need a break from freebasing.

“If you are struggling to hit a vein, or would like to gives [sic] your lungs a break from smoking, boofing is a great option to do your drugs without using a needle or a pipe,” the city of Portland flyer says.

 

According to Maine’s “harm reduction” experts, which is a rather ironic name the circumstances, it’s great to shoot fentanyl up your pooper .At this point, the left is so steeped in degeneracy that they’ve actually convinced themselves that promoting “boofing” and other depraved practices is somehow beneficial to society.They completely dismiss the idea of church counseling, rehab, or other programs that could help people climb out of the dark pit of drug despair.

 

Instead, these merchants of death and doom push to keep individuals buried under their influence because a “zombie” culture is much easier to control than one that thrives and thinks for itself.

 

Be sure to read the full report from our friends at The Maine Wire, complete with more hilarious graphics and pictures.
