PORTSMOUTH, Va. (AP) — The city of Portsmouth will pay a Virginia state senator $300,0000 under a settlement in a lawsuit the senator filed after she was charged with damaging a Confederate monument during a 2020 protest.

Portsmouth police charged Sen. Louise Lucas and several others with conspiracy to commit a felony and injury to a monument in excess of $1,000 after a protest that drew hundreds of people to a local Confederate monument. The heads of Confederate statues were ripped off and one statue was pulled down, critically injuring a demonstrator.

Two months later, former Portsmouth police Chief Angela Greene announced felony criminal charges against Lucas and 18 others, including NAACP leaders, public defenders and a Portsmouth School Board member.

A judge later dismissed all charges in the case. Greene was fired the same day.

Lucas served Greene and the police officer who filed charges against her with the $6.75 million lawsuit in November 2021, alleging malicious…

Excerpt:

A former Iranian official who is a faculty member at Princeton University recently bragged in an interview about how his hardline government’s death threats against a former top Trump administration official had him and his family “trembling” with fear.

Hussein Mousavian, a former member of Iran’s nuclear negotiating team who works as a Middle East security and nuclear policy specialist at Princeton University, said in a recent interview that the Iranian regime’s threats to murder Brian Hook, the Trump administration’s special envoy for Iran, have heavily impacted Hook’s family life.

“I went to America and an American told me that Brian Hook’s wife can’t sleep, she cries and trembles, she told Brian, ‘They’ll kill you,’ since Hook was a partner in the death of Haj Qassem [Soleimani], that’s how much they were trembling,” Mousavian said, referring to Iran’s vow to kill Hook for his role in the Trump administration’s drone strike that killed Iranian…

Is Fake News Killing Covid-19 Patients?

Paul Collier January 4, 2022

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is accusing the Federal Government of failing to deliver potentially life-saving Covid-19 therapies in the form of an antibiotic called Monoclonal.

The initial emergence of the antibiotic as a potential effective therapy for Covid-19 patients came at a time when the DNC and its Corporate allies found tremendous advantage in continuing to hold Americans in a state of lockdown emergency.

News of an effective Covid-19 treatment could hamper those efforts, so all early claims of the antibiotic being an effective treatment were deleted from the Internet, along with many of the people that shared such dangerous thoughts. Now, the antibiotic is still continuing to show effectiveness at reducing serious illness and death in Covid-19 significantly, yet the Feds appear still basing their approach on the early fake news reports created by CNN, Washington Post, etc, that all sought to stigmatize the treatment and downplay its effectiveness.

To be sure, there was also plenty of agit prop on the other side proclaiming the drug to be far more effective than it actually appears to be, and these more extreme claims were the strawmen the DNC-controlled media used to disparage anyone advocating for the drug as a treatment, even anyone who might have directly benefited from the treatment.

This tactic, the use-the-nuts tactic, is one often used by the DNC, find the most extreme, insane version of the enemy and hold that up as the totality of the enemy you are seeking to vilify.

Feds Being ‘Scarce’ with Monoclonal Antibody Distribution Is ‘Leading to People Dying’

Excerpt:

On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said that the federal government hasn’t given Florida the monoclonal antibody treatments it needs and governors can’t get supplies on their own due to the federal government taking control of the supply and the lack of monoclonal antibody treatments “is absolutely leading to people dying.”

DeSantis stated, [relevant remarks begin around 2:15] “I think with the monoclonals, that is absolutely leading to people dying. Because we saw when we put in our sites this summer in Florida to deal with the Delta wave, we kept tens of thousands of people out of the hospital. We saved thousands of lives by providing that treatment. So, that should have been replicated in all these other states, but instead, what Biden and his cronies have done, they’ve seized control of all the monoclonal antibodies. So, yes, when we were in the pinch, I bought some myself. None of the governors now are able…

Did Ted Cruz Prematurely Whisper Impeachment?

Paul Collier January 4, 2022

Newsweek is putting on their shock face and writing agit prop pieces in preparation for what appears to be a GOP-led Impeachment Run for the 2022 Elections, if Ted Cruz is an effective barometer.

Ted Cruz made statements recently in a discussion on his eponymous show, Verdict with Ted Cruz. He claimed the GOP has multiple grounds to impeach President Joe Biden, tipping, perhaps, the GOP hand as to what narratives they may be deploying in the 2022 election. The strategy, if that’s what is chosen, might not work out as the GOP hopes if it results in what I think it might, galvanizing the broken left to defend their figurehead while not really adding to the already highly galvanized GOP, and even independents, who might not even be as motived to support another round of Impeachments as they would just simply stopping the DNC agenda.

Perhaps Ted Cruz is merely floating a narrative for testing, but, if the left were smart, they would continue to pounce on this and offer, whether the GOP chooses the impeachment narrative or not, their own narrative, vote DNC or the GOP will sack Joe and kill our dream.

Never mind that the DNC dream is anti-American at its heart and billionaire-enabling at its core, they own the cultural and social means of production, so their emotional sales pitches will hit the heart for the plumbline of their false promises has been chased out of the public square.

Perhaps, Ted, discretion is the better part of whatever you thought you were doing. If the GOP were smart, they would focus on Biden’s failures, the DNC Congress’ boondoggle bills that have tanked our economy, and, above all else, assault the CRT, in the schools, in the corporate board rooms. Make the Chief Diversity and Equity Officer the bull School Hall Monitor, the face of the DNC.

Let impeachment wait until you can approach the full team, from Biden to Pelosi to Schumer, move to remove them all, quickly, in one fell swoop, or don’t move at all. Should the GOP not heed this advice, I would rate this move a win for the DNC and a loss for we Americans, but one that yet can still be overcome, not just at the ballot but at the home, among fellow Americans, as we build our own structures to allow us to thrive, without bending our knee to the anti-American DNC.

Ted Cruz Claims ‘Multiple Grounds’ for Joe Biden’s Impeachment Under a GOP House

From www.newsweek.com

Excerpt:

Texas Senator Ted Cruz believes there are “multiple grounds” for impeachment against President Joe Biden in 2022.

Cruz, along with Michael Knowles and Liz Wheeler, discussed former President Donald Trump‘s impeachment and the future of Biden’s presidency during the show Verdict with Ted Cruz, on December 31, 2021.

Knowles joked that he expects the Democrats to attempt to impeach Trump again and went as far as to say even if he died the Democrats would find a way to impeach him.

He then asked Cruz whether a Republican House of Representatives would ever impeach Biden. Cruz said he believed there was a chance it could happen and argued the Democrats had “crossed the line” with the attempted impeachments of Trump.

He added that if the Republicans took back the House of Representatives, impeachment could follow against Biden in 2022.

Cruz said: “I do think there is a chance of that, whether it is justified or not, as we talked about when Verdict launched, the Democrats weaponized…

CNBC Headline Suggest Corpos Be Exposed For Funding Election-Questioning GOP

Paul Collier January 4, 2022

This CNBC headline and story is an example of deceptively using a news report format to push an opinion, subliminally making the opinion an assumed fact by the naive news reader. The headline attempts to stigmatize GOP “election objectors” to the point of shaming any individual or corporation that might contribute to these American citizens and current members of the United States government.

The headline itself borders on sedition itself, at least in tone, yet uses that tone to attempt to stigmatize questioning a mass-mailer election result to the point of seeking to market assassinate any individual or company that might dare offer capital to support them in the resistance to the anti-American CCP-acolyte, the Democrat National Corporation and all its Silicon Valley ‘allies.’

Corporations, groups gave over $8 million to GOP election objectors after Jan. 6 riot: Study

Since the deadly Jan. 6 riot on Capitol Hill, Republican lawmakers who objected to the results of the 2020 presidential election received over $8 million in campaign donations from corporations and trade groups, according to a new study first shared with CNBC.

More than 140 Republicans in the House and Senate continued to object to the results of the election in which President Joe Biden defeated incumbent President Donald Trump, even after the pro-Trump attack on the Capitol. Trump, who was then the president, urged his supporters at a rally that day to march on Congress as lawmakers were in the process of confirming Biden’s electoral victory.

Excerpt:

The idea that someone should have their life ruined over a practical joke, is patently insane and frankly anti-American. Yet that is exactly what CNN Opinion columnist and SiriusXM radio host Dean Obeidallah argued in a recent column last week.

In a piece titled “You can’t troll the President with ‘Let’s go, Brandon’ and then play the victim”, Obeidallah argued that Jared Schmeck, 35-year-old Oregon father deserves whatever punishment the cancel culture tyrants want to inflict on him for the grave sin of saying “Let’s Go, Brandon” to President Joe Biden during a call on Christmas Eve.

Obeidallah summarized the incident that got the left all in a tizzy this way:

On Friday, Schmeck took it one step further by trolling the Biden’s to their face with this coded expression. The father of four is now — as you might imagine — facing a tsunami of criticism for essentially dropping the coded equivalent of an “F”-bomb on a live Christmas Eve special designed for…

Local media in the Solomon Islands recently reported that Taiwan island allegedly sponsored the “premeditated” anti-government riots in Honiara with the purpose of trying to pull down the government of the Solomon Islands and sabotage relations between China and the Solomon Islands.

“The acts of violence directed against the democratically-elected government of the Solomon Islands, the ethnic Chinese business community in Honiara and the majority of peace-loving Solomon islanders was at its very core a premeditated, cold-blooded and cowardly Taiwan-sponsored attempt to pull down the national government and undermine Solomon Islands-People’s Republic of China relations,” Solomon Star, a local English media, reported on December 17, quoting a writer given the name of George Belau.

The newspaper said the riots resulted in the destruction of the livelihoods of…

Colombian suspected of involvement in killing of Haiti president held in Panama – sources

Excerpt:

On Monday, Panama authorities arrested a former member of the Colombian military wanted for questioning in connection with the assassination last year of Haiti president Jovenel Moise, two people familiar with the matter said.

The suspect, Mario Antonio Palacios, 43, was detained during a stopover of a flight on which he was being deported from Jamaica to Colombia, the sources said.

Haitian authorities have accused Palacios of forming part of a mercenary group that assassinated Moise in July in an assault on his residence, during which his wife was also wounded.

Palacios was detained during a stopover in Panama and asked to “voluntarily” board a flight to the United States, a Colombian immigration source said.

In case he resisted, Panamanian officials said they would enforce an Interpol red notice issued by the United States, which is in addition to one that Haiti had already issued, the source said.

Haiti has also issued an Interpol red notice for Palacios.

It was not clear if he had gone to the United States.

Cairo

Sudan’s Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok announced his resignation Sunday amid political deadlock and widespread pro-democracy protests following a military coup that derailed the country’s fragile transition to democratic rule.

Mr. Hamdok, a former U.N. official seen as the civilian face of Sudan’s transitional government, had been reinstated as prime minister in November as part of an agreement with the military following the October coup. In that time he had failed to name a Cabinet and his resignation throws Sudan into political uncertainty amid uphill security and economic challenges.

In a televised national address Sunday, Mr. Hamdok called for a dialogue to agree on a “national charter” and to “draw a roadmap” to complete the transition to democracy in accordance with the 2019 constitutional document governing the transitional period.

“I decided to return the responsibility and declare my resignation as prime…

Somaliland asks Canada for help amid superpower rivalry in Horn of Africa

Excerpt:

Somali’s breakaway Somaliland region is asking Canada for international recognition and aid, saying it’s important for Western countries to support a functioning democracy that’s resisting China’s influence in the Horn of Africa.

The self-declared state, which split from Somalia 30 years ago, sent its Foreign Minister, Essa Kayd, to Washington, London and Ottawa recently as part of a campaign to refashion its external relationships. A U.S. congressional staff delegation later visited Somaliland.

Mr. Kayd, 61, who also holds Canadian and U.S. citizenship, met with officials at Canada’s Department of Global Affairs in December. He’s asking countries to provide aid directly to Somaliland instead of giving it through Somalia. He also hopes for recognition as a separate country, a measure that Canada would not likely take unless it was part of a concerted effort…
