Elizabeth Warren and Other Democrats Sent Threatening Letters to People Who Donated to Trump’s Inauguration
by Mike LaChance774 Comments
Elizabeth Warren and other Democrats are now sending threatening
letters to people and companies that donated to Trump’s inauguration.
This is from the same party that has spent the last eight years calling Trump a fascist.
You may also recall that they have no problem with contributions like this when they are made to to Democrats, just Trump.
Hot Air reported:
Democrats Now Threatening People Who Donated to Trump’s Inauguration
Democrats are the political equivalent of mafia bosses who basically run protection rackets.
“Nice company you have there. Shame if something happened to it.”
We saw a lot of this behavior over the past few years. One of the
techniques used to bully social media companies into censorship was the
use of open (and private) threats to use antitrust laws to break up
Meta, Twitter, Google and all the tech companies if they did not comply
with demands to suppress the speech of conservatives and, frankly,
anybody including dissenting Democrats.
Elizabeth Warren and Michael Bennett are trying the same thing by
going after people and companies that contributed to the Trump
inaugural.
These contributions are standard practice. Obama took millions of
dollars from donors, including the companies Warren and Bennet are
targeting. So did Joe Biden, even though all the inaugural hoopla was
very muted due to insane COVID policies.
Elizabeth Warren is determined to be the leader of the anti-Trump
‘resistance’ this time around. What does that tell you? She is planning
to run again in 2028. That’s what this is likely all about.
Tech Billionaire Mark Pincus Reveals the ‘Red Pill’ Moment That Shifted His Support to Trump (VIDEO)
by Mike LaChance237 Comments
Tech billionaire Mark Pincus announced his support for Trump just days before the 2024 election.
During a recent appearance on the ‘All In’ podcast, Pincus explained
what his ‘red pill’ moment was that shifted his outlook and made him
publicly announce that he was voting for Trump.
It had a lot to do with a particular lie that has been pushed by
Democrats and the media for years. It’s one that all Trump supporters
are very familiar with.
Transcript via Kanekoa the Great on Twitter/X:
Tech billionaire and lifelong Democrat Mark Pincus
reveals his “Red Pill” moment, sparked by Mike Solana’s Pirate Wires and
the “very fine people” hoax, culminating in him voting for Donald
Trump.
“I started reading @PirateWires and @micsolana, and I thought he was a
little crazy at first because he would write these articles, and one he
wrote was about how the Ukrainian soldiers had swastikas on their
helmets, and the NYT photographers would ask them to take the swastikas
off for photos.”
“I said that can’t be true, and then four months later, it was in the
NYT buried in the middle of the paper, and I kept seeing stories like
that that he would be early on. So, I started feeling more uncomfortable
and queasy with what was going on with mainstream media.”
“Then, in May 2024, I read an article that talked about Trump’s
speech in Charlottesville, where he said there are good people on both
sides, and the article said it was completely propaganda and didn’t
actually reflect what he said. That he denounced the Nazis a bunch of
times in his speech, so then I went and watched that video, and that was
my red pill moment.”
“I think it was for a lot of people because it wasn’t just the media
or politicians spinning it. That speech was one of the pillars of why
you were supposed to hate Trump. Then you see Biden say that’s why he
had to run a second time, and Obama says it, and Biden brings it up
again at the DNC.”
Watch the video: go to the link at the top and watch...please go see it
It’s amazing how even though the ‘fine people’ hoax had been debunked
repeatedly over the years, the media allowed Biden, Kamala, and Obama
to repeat it on the campaign trail over and over again with zero
pushback.
Orange County Democrat Indicted on Multiple Election Fraud Charges – Faces Up to Six Years in Prison
by Ben Kew1 Comment
Alyce Van / Stanton City Counil
An Orange County Democrat has been busted on multiple charges of election fraud.
Alyce Van, a former Stanton City Councilwoman, is facing numerous
felony charges related to her own election in which she lost her seat.
Details of the charges were outlined in the press release:
Van was elected in November 2020 to represent Stanton’s
City Council District #2, but less than a year after her election Van is
accused of purchasing a home in Stanton City Council District #4 with
her husband and son.
Despite no longer living in her district, Van did not resign as
required by law and continued to serve as the District #2 City
Councilmember. Van did not sell her home in District #2, which was
located next to the home where her parents live and allowed other family
members to live in her former home.
While serving on the City Council, Van is accused of leaving her home
located in Stanton City Council District #4, driving to her former
residence in Stanton City Council District #2, and then walking to
Stanton City Hall to attend City Council meetings.
On July 23, 2024, Van submitted an Affidavit of Nominee, which she
signed under penalty of perjury, to run for re-election for Stanton City
Council District #2, despite the fact that she no longer lived in the
district and was therefore ineligible to run for the City Council seat.
Van’s voter registration continued to list her former District #2
address after she moved and she illegally cast her vote in the November
2024 election while being registered at her former address.
Van has consequently been charged with one felony count of perjury,
one felony count of offering a false or forged document to be filed,
registered, or recorded, one felony count of filing false nomination
papers, and one felony count of not being entitled to vote at an
election.
“The integrity of our elections will be safeguarded, and political
candidates who lie and cheat the system in order to get elected will be
prosecuted,” said Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer.
“These are not mistakes,” he continued. “These are deliberate
decisions to interfere with our democratic process and they will not be
tolerated.”
Van was defeated convincingly in her re-election bid for District 2 by city Parks Commissioner Victor Barrios.
According to a biography on the Stanton City website, Van was born in a refugee camp in Hong Kong to Vietnamese immigrant parents.
She has lived in Stanton since she was a child and was appointed to
the City Council in 2019 and is said to have a “deep passion” for public
service.
Van will be arraigned on January 29, 2025. She could face up to six years in state prison if convicted on all counts.
Far-Left Washington Post Cartoonist Arrested For Possession of Child Pornography
by Ben Kew185 Comments
Darrin Bell / ABC News
A Washington Post cartoonist has become the latest left-wing activist to be charged with appalling sex crimes.
Darrin Bell, whose work regularly appears in The Washington Post and other national newspapers, was arrested this week for possession of child pornography.
The Sacramento Valley police released the following statement:
Sacramento Valley Internet Crimes Against Children
Detectives (ICAC) conducted an investigation stemming from a tip from
the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) related
to someone uploading Child Sex Abuse Material (CSAM), also referred to
as child pornography.
The tip was related to 18 files containing CSAM. The investigation
continued, and a total of 134 videos of CSAM were located and linked to
the same account, owned and controlled by 49-year-old Darrin Bell.
Yesterday morning (January 15), ICAC Detectives served a residential
search warrant at Bell’s home. Detectives recovered evidence related to
the case, as well as computer-generated/AI CSAM.
Bell was subsequently arrested and booked into the Sacramento County
Main Jail for the possession of CSAM. He is currently in custody being
held on $1 million bail and is scheduled to appear in court on January
17.
This case was the first arrest by Sacramento Valley ICAC where
possession of computer-generated/AI CSAM was charged against a suspect
(the law changed on January 1, 2025, to include AI-generated material as
a criminal offense).
Bell is a well-known cartoonist, having been featured in several
prominent publications. His booking photo is not available for public
release, per California law.
It should come as no surprise that Bell was a committed leftist and
opponent of Donald Trump, an ideology reflected in his cartoons.
Back in November, he retweeted a comment by a man claiming that Elon
Musk “bought the US presidency and is now trying to use the US military
to force the entire world to listen to his white supremacist propaganda
network.”
In 2019, Bell made history as the first African American journalist to win the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning.
The Pulitzer committee commended him for addressing “issues affecting
disenfranchised communities” and for “calling out lies, hypocrisy and
fraud in the political turmoil surrounding the Trump administration.”
“I want [readers] to take away that we need to be more respectful of human dignity,” Bell said at the time.
“That’s the common thread I try to weave through every cartoon that I
draw — whether it’s about police brutality or immigrants being
separated from their children, or whether it’s about Donald Trump. It’s a
big moment of validation.”

Speaker Johnson Defies Joe Biden’s Order, Says Flags Will be Raised For Trump Inauguration
by Cristina Laila180 Comments
Speaker Mike Johnson with the gavel
House Speaker Mike Johnson defied Joe Biden’s order to fly flags at
half-staff and said flags will be raised for Trump’s inauguration.
“On January 20th, the flags at the Capitol will fly at full-staff to
celebrate our country coming together behind the inauguration of our
47th President, Donald Trump. The flags will be lowered back to
half-staff the following day to continue honoring President Jimmy
Carter,” Speaker Johnson posted on X.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said the Biden White
House will not reconsider raising the flags for Trump’s inauguration.
“The flags are due to be flying at half mast at the time of the
inauguration, and President Trump seems to be taking issue with that. Is
that a decision that the White House would consider to consider
reversing or reevaluating?” a reporter asked Karine Jean-Pierre earlier
this month.
“No,” KJP said.
Earlier this month Trump blasted the Democrats for being “giddy”
about Biden’s order to fly flags at “half mast” during his inauguration.
“The Democrats are all “giddy” about our magnificent American Flag
potentially being at “half mast” during my Inauguration. They think it’s
so great, and are so happy about it because, in actuality, they don’t
love our Country, they only think about themselves. Look at what they’ve
done to our once GREAT America over the past four years – It’s a total
mess! In any event, because of the death of President Jimmy Carter, the
Flag may, for the first time ever during an Inauguration of a future
President, be at half mast. Nobody wants to see this, and no American
can be happy about it. Let’s see how it plays out. MAKE AMERICA GREAT
AGAIN!” Trump said on Truth Social.
Ellen DeGeneres Spotted
in Ritzy California Coastal City After Vowing to ‘Never Come Back’ to
the US Following Trump Election Win
by Cristina Laila482 Comments
Ellen DeGeneres, Portia de Rossi
That was quick.
In November, raging narcissist Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi moved to England after Trump won the 2024 presidential election in a landslide.
And they claimed they were never coming back.
Ellen DeGeneres is so toxic and abusive that her show “Ellen” was canceled in 2022 and she was effectively ran out of Hollywood.
DeGeneres moved from one wealthy elitist neighborhood to another.
According to The Wrap,
Ellen DeGeneres’ Montecito, California, mansion will soon be on the
market after she moved to the Cotswolds in south-central England.
The Trump curse quickly hit Ellen because shortly after she moved to the UK, her mansion in the Cotswolds flooded.
The Daily Mail obtained photos of Ellen DeGeneres in Montecito, California, last Friday.
Ellen DeGeneres Montecito: Photo: The Daily Mail
The Daily Mail reported:
Just a few months after relocating to rural England and
vowing never to return following Donald Trump’s election win, Ellen
DeGeneres is back in the good ol’ USA.
The 66-year-old talk show host apparently couldn’t stay away from her
roots, specifically, Montecito, California, after she and wife Portia
de Rossi reportedly decided to start a new life across the pond in
November, new exclusive DailyMail.com photos show.
DeGeneres was snapped at her old stomping grounds last Friday while
visiting Casa Dorinda, an elite retirement community known as the luxury
care home where Julia Child spent her final days among other famous
folks.
Dressed casually in a gray crew neck sweater, blue jeans, and
sneakers, DeGeneres was seen pulling into a visitor’s parking spot
before entering a resident building.
It’s not known who the Hollywood star was visiting at the home, but
it’s possible her wife’s mother, Margaret Rogers, may have moved to the
lux retirement community after she sold her Westlake Village townhome in
2020.
GROSS: Transgender TikToker Spends $17,000 to Remove Six of His Ribs — Plans to Make Them Into a Crown (VIDEO)
by Cassandra MacDonald216 Comments
A transgender TikToker claims to have spent $17,000 to have six of his ribs removed and plans to have them made into a crown.
The 27-year-old Kansas City-based influencer, who goes by “Emily James,” is a biological male who dresses as a woman.
“I plan on having someone make a crown out of them,” James told
Caters News. “They let me keep the ribs and I was initially going to
gift them to my best friend.”
James has been posting about his surgery and recovery on his TikTok account.
Though he plans to turn the ribs into an accessory, the surgery was done to make his waist smaller and more feminine.
James also joked about cannibalizing his own bones.
“In three days I’m getting three ribs removed on each side,” he said
in one of the videos documenting his bizarre surgical journey. “I’m
going to have an Emily barbeque.”
“I’ve had people say they would make them into a chew toy or boil
them down into broth,” James said. “Personally, I think my meat would
taste delicious.”
Ultimately, he said he would not be consuming his ribs.
“Eating human meat can cause a plethora of disorders that are fatal,”
he said. “So, I will not be partaking in cannibalism thank you.”
James compared the surgery to women getting butt lifts.
“It is my money, my body and I’m going to do what I want with it,” he asserted.
California State University Journalism Professor Celebrates His Fall 2024 Class Having ZERO White Students
by Cassandra MacDonald0 Comments
A seemingly racist California State University professor is facing
backlash after celebrating his fall 2024 class having zero white
students.
California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) Journalism Professor Jesus Ayala boasted in an article for the school’s paper that his class was “100% students of color.”
Ayala discussed how “74.3% of the TV news workforce is white.”
“Yet at BTVN, 100% of the students enrolled in JOUR 482 in fall 2024
are students of color,” Ayala said. “In order to diversify TV newsrooms,
we need to diversify newsroom pipelines. This is what makes BTVN
special.”
The course
being discussed teaches students to “produce television news reports,
segments and programs in this hands-on course. Students also gain
experience in a variety of television news production roles, including
anchor, writer, reporter, producer and researcher.”
Campus Reform noted,
“The university’s official LinkedIn account also shared Ayala’s quote
and a link to the article with its nearly 300,000 followers.”
According to the university website,
Ayala is “one of the most distinguished and decorated broadcast
journalism professors in the country and brings over 20 years of
professional journalism experience into the classroom. As a veteran
award-winning news producer, Ayala has won four national Emmys and seven
Edward R. Murrow Awards, and has trained and mentored ten Emmy winners
and nine Murrow Award winners.”
The biography adds that he previously served as a producer for “all
ABC News broadcasts including World News Tonight, Good Morning America,
Nightline and 20/20.”
The university has not responded to the criticism of his comments.
Fire and Fury: Overpaid
Bureaucrat Responsible for Filling Up Fire Hydrants in LA County Rakes
in $750K Per Year — The City’s Highest Paid Employee
by Jim Hᴏft89 Comments

As the Pacific Palisades neighborhood grapples with one of the most
destructive wildfires in Los Angeles County’s history, firefighters are
confronting an unexpected challenge: dry fire hydrants.
The blaze, which has scorched approximately 16,000 acres and
destroyed over 1,000 structures, has been exacerbated by powerful Santa
Ana winds, with gusts reaching up to 100 mph.
The Palisades Fire, which has scorched over 25,000 acres, remains at 0% containment.
Similarly, the Eaton Fire near Pasadena has burned more than 5,000 acres and is also at 0% containment.
These fires have led to significant destruction, including the loss
of over 1,000 structures and at least five fatalities. Evacuation orders
have been issued for more than 150,000 residents as emergency services
work tirelessly to manage the crisis, The Times reported.
These conditions have not only intensified the flames but also
hindered aerial firefighting efforts, as aircraft have been grounded due
to the severe winds.
On the ground, firefighters have reported that several hydrants in
the area have run dry, severely hampering their efforts to control the
inferno.
“There’s no water in the fire hydrants,” Rick Caruso, owner of the Palisades Village shopping center, told The Times. “The
firefighters are there, and there’s nothing they can do — we’ve got
neighborhoods burning, homes burning, and businesses burning. … It
should never happen.”
WATCH:
The recent failure of fire hydrants in Los Angeles County to provide
water during a critical fire-fighting effort raises serious questions
about the competence and priorities of local officials.
How is it possible that in one of the wealthiest regions in the
country, essential infrastructure such as fire hydrants is not
adequately maintained or inspected?
Reports have surfaced that a Los Angeles County official responsible
for this simple task of overseeing fire hydrant maintenance is raking in
an astonishing $750,000 annually.

In April 2024, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) nominated Janisse
Quiñones as the new head of the Department of Water and Power (DWP),
with an approved annual salary of $750,000.
This is nearly double the salary of her predecessor, Marty Adams, who only made $447,082 annually.
LA Times reported at the time:
The Board of Water and Power Commissioners on Tuesday
voted to approve a salary for Bass nominee Janisse Quiñones that is
significantly higher than the $447,082 currently earned by General
Manager Marty Adams.
Quiñones, former senior vice president of electric operations at
Pacific Gas & Electric Co., was picked by Bass after a nationwide
search. Adams is retiring in June after four decades at the head of the
troubled agency, where turnover is particularly high in the top ranks.
The City Council last year approved a new salary range — $435,034.80
to $751,011.84 — for the general managers of the city’s utility, port
and airport, which went into effect in December after Adams announced
his retirement.
Top executives at investor-owned utilities, such as PG&E,
typically earn multimillion-dollar salaries, while those at public
utilities take home much less.
Quiñones’ salary is in line with top executives’ salaries at the
Omaha Public Power District in Nebraska and the Sacramento Municipal
Utility District, according to public records.
Of course, the DEI CEO and chief engineer of the LADWP, Janisse
Quiñones, attributed the issue to an unprecedented strain on the water
system.
“Four times the normal demand was seen for 15 hours straight, which lowered our water pressure,” Quiñones continued.
“If
there’s a message you take away from me today, is, I need our customers
to really conserve water — not just in the Palisades area, but the
whole system because the fire department needs the water to fight the
fires,” Quiñones added.
She added, per Santa Monica Daily Press,
“We’re fighting a wildfire with urban water systems, and that is really
challenging… The utility has deployed 20 water tanks from construction
crews to support firefighting operations, with tankers making 30-minute
round trips to refill.
“Because we’re pushing the water system so hard, our water quality is
decreasing. So we’re going to be issuing a boil water notice this
morning, and I will extend for about 48 hours. The water quality is low.
We have a lot of ash in the system, and so please, if you’re going to
be drinking water, you need to boil the water.”
Quiñones also assered that the system will need to adapt as “climate change” makes fires like these more frequent.
“How are we going to change the way we operate our water systems for
events like this? This is an unprecedented event,” she said.
“I think the 2011 winds was significant from a power perspective, but
the fires have really increased the response complexity of this. We had
crews trying to mitigate this, and we had to evacuate. We worked with
the fire department to try to get back in and try to fill the tanks
again. It wasn’t safe to do so. So you’re managing the fires, you’re
managing the power outage, and you’re managing the water needs …. So
yes, we have to look at our system from a climate resiliency as a
region, and it’s going to be more than just DWP, it’s all the water
agencies here, including the county.”
Just three months ago, when Trump appeared on the Joe Rogan Podcast,
he talked to Joe about the ongoing issue of water dispersal in
California and about how the state could stop wildfires by clearing dead trees from forests.
He suggested that the state actually has more than enough water to
deal with these and other issues such as farming, but progressive
environmental policies are standing in the way.
On Wednesday, Trump blasted Newsom on Truth Social.
“Governor Gavin Newscum refused to sign the water restoration
declaration put before him that would have allowed millions of gallons
of water, from excess rain and snow melt from the North, to flow daily
into many parts of California, including the areas that are currently
burning in a virtually apocalyptic way,” Trump wrote.
“He wanted to protect an essentially worthless fish called a smelt,
by giving it less water (it didn’t work!), but didn’t care about the
people of California, he added. “Now the ultimate price is being paid.”
“I will demand that this incompetent governor allow beautiful, clean,
fresh water to FLOW INTO CALIFORNIA! He is the blame for this. On top
of it all, no water for fire hydrants, not firefighting planes. A true
disaster!”
Mayor
Bass, who was abroad in Ghana when the fires began, has faced
additional criticism for her absence during the crisis. She returned to
Los Angeles on Wednesday but declined to answer questions regarding her absence and previous budget cuts to the LAFD.
According to the New York Post,
“The water shortage was the result of years of mismanagement of LA’s
water system — including a federal indictment of a leader and high
profile resignations — as well as major operational problems that
drained reserves too quickly.”
