U.S. Forest Service law enforcement is now asking for the public’s help identifying a group of Indian nationals seen defacing Cathedral Rock in Sedona, Arizona, a sacred Native American site, with furious Americans demanding their immediate deportation.
NEW: Seattle man gets beaten up by a local in Hawaii after he threw a massive rock at a monk seal.
The man was seen getting pummelled by a local after throwing a rock at the seal on Maui.
The man who took matters into his own hands has been awarded a letter of recognition by Republican state Sen. Brenton Awa.
"Our attorney over here wants to make it clear we don’t condone violence, but we did make a letter of recognition for Mr. Ambassador of Aloha," he said.
The 37-year-old tourist is facing fines of up to $50,000 and jail time.
Spencer Pratt says they tried to tell him he was ineligible to run for mayor “because his house burned down”
“I wasn't eligible to run for mayor because my house burned down — I'm not kidding. This is real”
The LA Times reported he wasn’t eligible to run because his house burned down in the Palisades Fire, forcing him to temporarily live outside the city
This was a lie, it was the LA Times doing what they always do. Spreading fake news to help Democrats in Los Angeles
He says he had to call the City Clerk to verify the claims, they of course were wrong. Anyone who had their house burned down was still eligible
🚨 JUST IN: President Trump is REFUSING TO BACK DOWN on the SAVE America Act, DEMANDING John Thune get off his ass and get it done
“America's Elections are Rigged, Stolen, and a Laughingstock all over the World. We are either going to fix them, or we won't have a Country any longer.”
“I am asking all Republicans to fight for the following:
SAVE AMERICA ACT!
1) ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW VOTER I.D.
(IDENTIFICATION!).
2) ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP IN ORDER TO VOTE.
3) NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS (EXCEPT FOR ILLNESS, DISABILITY, MILITARY, OR TRAVEL!).”
I am a senior coordinating producer for the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. I have worked eleven of these. I was backstage at the Washington Hilton when the shots were fired.
The first thing I heard was not the gunfire. It was glass.
A champagne flute hit the floor of the International Ballroom at approximately 9:47 PM. Then a second. Then the sound that I have since been told was a 12-gauge shotgun, which from inside the ballroom sounded like a heavy door slamming in a parking garage. Then the Secret Service moved. They moved the President, the Vice President, the First Lady through the east corridor in under ninety seconds, which is protocol, which is practiced, which is the one part of the evening that worked exactly as it was designed.
Everything else was improvised.
I know this because I ordered the wine. 94 tables. Two bottles per table. 188 bottles of a Willamette Valley pinot noir that the Association selected in February after a tasting committee spent three meetings debating between Oregon and Burgundy. Oregon won. The budget was $14,200. I signed the invoice. I can tell you the vintage. I can tell you the distributor. I can tell you the per-bottle cost because I negotiated it down from $89 to $76.
What I cannot tell you is how 147 of those bottles left the building during an active shooter evacuation.
I can tell you what I saw. A correspondent from a network I will not name picked up two bottles on her way to the east exit. Full bottles. One in each hand. She was wearing heels and she did not spill. A man in a tuxedo tucked one inside his jacket the way you'd shoplift a paperback at an airport bookstore. A woman picked up a bottle, looked at the label, put it back, and took a different one.
She checked the vintage. During an evacuation. That's editorial judgment under pressure.
The theme of the dinner was "A Free Press for a Free People." The banners were still hanging when the evacuation began. I know because I hung them. Twenty-three banners, navy blue, gold serif lettering, $11,400 for the set. They were still hanging when 2,600 guests were directed to the exits by Secret Service agents, one of whom had just taken a shotgun round in his ballistic vest and walked to the ambulance on his own feet.
The agent's vest costs approximately $800. The wine that left the building was worth $11,172 at Association cost. At restaurant markup, roughly $29,000. The guests saved more in wine than the vest that saved the agent.
That's priority.
The video went viral by 10:15 PM. Not the video of the evacuation. Not the Secret Service response. The wine. Three guests in formalwear grabbing bottles off white tablecloths while being told to move toward the exits, while a man with a shotgun stood in the same motor entrance where John Hinckley shot Ronald Reagan 45 years ago.
A woman near the service entrance was crying. She said "I just wanna go home." She was not holding wine. She was holding her phone. She was the only person I saw that night who looked afraid rather than inconvenienced.
That's the distinction. The rest of the ballroom did not look afraid. They looked interrupted. An active shooter at the WHCD is a logistical problem. The dinner was disrupted. The timeline was off. The after-party at the French Ambassador's residence would need to be rescheduled. These are contingency matters. Contingency matters have solutions. Fear is for people who attend events without security details.
I have produced eleven of these dinners. I have managed seating charts that require diplomatic-grade negotiations. I have handled comedians, cabinet secretaries, network anchors, and the editor of a major newspaper who once threatened to leave because his table was behind a column.
I have never, in eleven years, seen a guest leave a $76 bottle on the table during an evacuation. I have also never seen a guest check the label first. Both observations are consistent. The bottle is worth taking. The evacuation is worth surviving. The instinct is to do both simultaneously.
188 bottles placed. 41 recovered. 147 unaccounted for. One agent shot. Zero guests injured. Zero bottles broken.
A free press for a free people. The press is free. The wine was $76 a bottle. They took it anyway.
Someone inside Kaiser sent me the below internal guidance concerning shots and medications for newborns.
It tells Kaiser employees that the "approach to how we introduce and administer routine newborn ... Hepatitis B vaccine" is to " avoid saying ‘it’s optional’ or ‘you can refuse’ unless directly asked” and to tell parents that "we will be giving" instead of asking consent to give. This is the antithesis of informed consent. Yet Kaiser calls it “excellent patient and family care.”
🚨 HOLY CRAP! Ilhan Omar LOST IT on a @RealLindellTV reporter for asking about her MASSIVE net worth change
“I think you’re STUPID for asking me ANYTHING,” Omar said to @alisonintheknow
“I don’t have to tell you JACK SHlT!”
Ilhan is LASHING OUT because she KNOWS she’s guilty!
HSI AND IRS MUST GET INVOLVED!
JUST IN 🚨 Pressure is growing drastically for Sen Leader John Thune to be removed. Members of Congress are starting to talk more about it
IT’S TIME TO REMOVE THIS TRAITOR
GOOD RIDDANCE
A U.S. post office in downtown Los Angeles is completely surrounded by piles of trash and homeless encampments.
The local fire department says 80 PERCENT of their calls are related to the homeless.
This is Gavin Newscum's California.
USA is finished
Radical judges rule over us.
19yo thug shoves 84yo grandpa from behind, cracks his skull on the pavement, kills him… then cries ‘bad day’ and walks free on probation.
Not sure what we doing anymore..
No hope.
A new Islamic banner was draped over a 9/11 memorial at Contra Costa County cemetery in Concord, California
“That banner has caused a huge uproar —felt like punch to the gut type of thing”
The owner of the cemetery gave the Muslim family permissions to hang the banner but didn’t realize they would put it over the 9/11 memorial
The banner was advertising a new Islamic portion of the cemetery
After public outrage it was removed
@GovPressOffice You do realize I’m trying to help America eliminate fraud and waste right? No need to try and make me look like the bad guy for exposing fraud.
People are over it. Start working for the people and not against them.
