U.S. President Donald Trump provokes a wide range of emotions depending on who you ask.
For one man in Myrtle Beach, S.C., the feeling he gets from Trump’s face can only be described as pure ecstasy.
Cops charged Timothy William Lucas Logar after finding marijuana in his possession as well as MDMA pills — also known as ecstasy — shaped like Donald Trump’s face, Myrtle Beach Online reported.
Logar was driving around the night of the arrest when he passed a patrolling officer.
The officer pulled Logar over because of the strong stench of marijuana that came from the man’s car as he drove by.
In their search, officers found 0.7 grams of marijuana underneath Logar’s seat and in the ashtray.
Logar apparently thought the safest place for the Trump-shaped pills would be on his person.

A continued search by cops revealed Logar had stashed the pills in his right coin pocket, Mrytle Beach Online reported.
There certainly was no euphoric look on Logar’s face after being charged with simple possession of marijuana and warrants were sought for possession of MDMA.
Police tested the pills and they returned positive for MDMA.

Ontario hockey dad calls out Eric Trump for using son’s image in tweet
Canadian Press
Published:
July 18, 2019

July 18, 2019 8:29 AM EDT
Mason, 4, was mic'd up during a hockey practice by his father Jeremy Rupke, of Howtohockey.com, and the video has been viewed more than 10 million times on YouTube. (screenshot from YouTube)
An Ontario man is calling out a member of the Trump family for using an image of his young son as part of a political attack on those opposing the American president.
Jeremy Rupke says Donald Trump’s son Eric showed “disrespect” and lack of forethought when he included an image of four-year-old Mason Rupke in a recent social media broadside against Democrats.
Left-leaning politicians have stepped up criticism of the U.S. president in recent days after he told four congresswomen of colour to “go back where they came from,” prompting Eric Trump to liken his father’s rivals to peewee hockey players.
To illustrate a tweet on the subject, Eric Trump used a screenshot taken from a video of Mason playing hockey in his hometown of Barrie, Ont. That tweet has since been taken down.
But before it was, Jeremy Rupke fired back, criticizing the president’s son for using Mason’s image to push a political message.
He says that while he doesn’t believe he has the right to insist the image be removed, he found the use of it “distasteful” and needlessly invasive.
“Clearly that is somebody’s child,” Rupke said in a telephone interview. “Maybe he wanted to get more views on his tweet and added pictures so it stands out more, but he could find a stock picture from a distance so it’s not personally involving anybody … Clearly someone in his position could afford to go through the right channels to get content.”
Rupke, who coaches hockey and hosts the popular site howtohockey.com, said he had no idea of his son’s newfound notoriety until Wednesday afternoon when a friend reached out to him on social media.
He said he had no history of discussing politics with this particular friend and was puzzled to see that he was being referred to a post by the president’s son. All became clear, however, when he saw Mason’s face peering back at him from below the tweet sent Wednesday morning.
“Watching the Democrats reminds me of pee-wee hockey — funny, makes zero sense & they can’t get out of their own way,” Eric Trump tweeted before narrowing his focus to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, one of the congresswomen included in his father’s recent headline-grabbing remarks.
“AOC is the gift that keeps on giving — skating circles on the far left and unknowingly taking down her own teammates. Please keep it up. You are guaranteeing 2020.”
Rupke said that once he got over the shock of seeing his son’s image alongside the tweet, he felt obligated to call out what he felt was poor online etiquette.
“Hey @EricTrump maybe don’t use a picture of my kid for your political propaganda,” he tweeted back.
Rupke also pointed out that children playing hockey in Mason’s age bracket are not classified as peewee, a designation the Ontario Minor Hockey Association reserves for players aged 11 and 12.
Rupke said he has not received and is not expecting a response from the president’s son. Eric Trump did not respond to request for comment.

Mason briefly became a viral video sensation when his father recorded him skating at a hockey practice earlier this year.
The video, which has been viewed more than 10 million on YouTube, showed Mason working to master skating and providing off-the-cuff commentary to accompany his efforts. His remarks were rarely focused on hockey, but instead touched on a desire for a nap and craving for a meal at McDonald’s.
Rupke included the clip of his son amid the rest of his video content, which largely focuses on hockey-playing tips and techniques.
He said he’s developed a particular distaste for the U.S. president’s brand of politics and added that the younger Trump appeared to be playing from the same book.
“(As a hockey coach) I’m always teaching respect, care compassion, looking after other people and just being an over-all good person,” Rupke said. “I think that (Donald) Trump doesn’t really reflect a lot of the values I try to teach.”
Rupke drew plenty of support on Twitter, with many critiquing the use of Mason’s image.
“If you knew anything about hockey you would realize that this kid is way to (sic) young to be a Pee Wee,” one user tweeted at the president’s son. ‘So what you are reporting is Fake News!”
“He didn’t even pick a kid made in America,” quipped another.

Accused killer of Gambino boss believed he was helping Trump: Lawyer

Anthony Comello, the accused killer of Gambino chieftain Francesco "Franky Boy" Cali. FACEBOOK
The alleged triggerman behind the murder of Big Apple Mob boss Francesco “Franky Boy” Cali is a conspiracy nut who thought he was assisting Donald Trump, according to his lawyer.
Anthony Comello is facing murder charges in the March 13 hit on Cali — head of the Gambino crime family — outside his Staten Island mansion.
But instead of a being a professional hitter, Comello is a lucky amateur who allegedly whacked the don over his refusal to let him date his niece.
Gambino crime family boss Francesco “Franky Boy” Cali was gunned down March 13, 2019 in front of his Staten Island mansion. NYPD
In court papers filed Friday, lawyer Robert Gottleib claimed his client held an irrational belief Cali was part of a “deep state” that secretly controls the U.S.
Instead of murder, Gottlieb said, Comello went to the Mob chief’s home armed with handcuffs for the purpose of arresting him.
“Mr. Comello became certain that he was enjoying the protection of President Trump himself, and that he had the president’s full support,” Gottlieb wrote in court papers obtained by the New York Times.
Comello parked a slew of bullets in Cali before driving over the mortally wounded crime kingpin’s body.
Gottlieb said he’s submitting evidence that argues Comello should be in psychiatric treatment and that he was not criminally responsible.

In an earlier court appearance, the hapless Comello had writing on his hand including the letter “Q.” The letter is associated with a bizarre conspiracy theory called QAnon.
Believers claim QAnon is a “deep state” plot against the president.
“Mr. Comello’s support for QAnon went beyond mere participation in a radical political organization,” Gottlieb said.
“It evolved into a delusional obsession.”
The accused killer also once tried to arrest New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio but was turned away by cops. He also tried to arrest two Democratic congressmen.
The NYPD’s theory is that Comello acted alone and killed the mobster because Cali kiboshed his prospects with his niece.

You know the bodies are fresh and the helmet in the picture of from the US so the dead were killed by the US. You are a few bodies shy of the 6M figure.


Have I mentioned that your post reeks rather than it contains anything of real value, typical post for a psychopath though.

You mean omit part of history like it never happened?
No, he means no pictures of dead people, like the many, many, many that would just be children from Gaza. You want to edit your post now?? A murdered person is not respected if his murder is not mentioned many, many times in many, many places that matter.
The part that is being buried is a fake history meant to bring unending sympathy (in the form of gifts of cash). This is a truth that will hurt many people so it should have never been lied about in the first place. Feel free to not understand any of that, let alone the ramifications.

Actually I was waiting for you to show me how the numbers work.

I already gave you the info that shows the birthrate was artificially inflated. If you want to claim they were multiplying faster than rabbits in Europe during one of their many, many manufactured financial disasters.

You seem to be promoting that you have all the facts and the people I listed are fill of shit. Time for you to anti-up and have something other than your fondest wishes being what your reality is based on. If the numbers can't be verified yet you stick to the 6M figure then it is you that is unhinged. I already know that, perhaps it is time you showed yourself what is guiding your outlook.


How much money has been transferred since 1950 as payment to (just the Jews) while Gentiles who lost 100M people in both wars get to foot the bill, the fake bill to go with the fake numbers. The fake Cold War netted the bankers a cool $5T and that would be pennies compared to what has been paid out.


https://www.economist.com/europe/1999/11/25/putting-a-price-on-the-holocaust
HOW do you put a price tag on the atrocities of the past? That is the dilemma at the heart of the latest unresolved wrangling over Holocaust reparations, this time claimed by the survivors of Nazi labour camps. Efforts to secure compensation from German firms and the German government collapsed last week over the size of a compensation fund that would absolve German companies from existing and future legal claims over forced labour. With talks due to resume again in Washington on December 8th, and over $1 billion still separating the two sides, the question raised once again is this: does the effort to put a monetary value on unspeakable human wrongs of the past not help ultimately to diminish them?
The forced-labour case is only one of a battery of outstanding claims by Holocaust survivors, or the families of those who were killed, for reparations for Nazi-era crimes. The chief targets are European companies—notably German, Austrian, Swiss, Italian and French—which, it is claimed, harbour dormant bank accounts, unpaid insurance policies or other assets lost or seized at the time of the Third Reich. While these claims are being pursued through various different courts, most of them in the United States, the common theme is an attempt to seek monetary compensation.

A large share of the claims do indeed concern material restitution, rather than moral reparation. The $1.25 billion settlement reached last year by Swiss companies and Holocaust survivors, for instance, began as an effort by Jewish groups to pierce Swiss secrecy laws and uncover hidden accounts. As part of the deal, Paul Volcker, a former chairman of the United States' Federal Reserve, has been working with a team of auditors to uncover dormant wartime accounts belonging to Holocaust victims. Though it was originally thought there might be fewer than 800 such accounts, Mr Volcker is expected soon to reveal the existence of 50,000-60,000, even if most of them cannot be directly connected to Holocaust victims.
A similar exercise is also being undertaken by European insurers accused of hoarding unpaid wartime policies. After an American lawsuit filed against several of the biggest names in European insurance, including France's AXA, Italy's Generali and Germany's Allianz, an international commission, under Lawrence Eagleburger, a former American secretary of state, is now negotiating to set up a similar fund to settle such claims once and for all. Already, some insurers have been burrowing into their wartime archives. Allianz, for example, which settled most of its policies under Germany's own sweeping post-war restitution programme, set up a team to examine 1.4m individual paper files on policies issued between 1920 and 1945 in order to try to trace any that remain unpaid.
Moreover, if there is a grubby feel to the exercise, this is in part due to the insistence of those American lawyers and politicians who seek to profit from it. It is also because, for their part, the European businessmen now so eager to atone for their companies' history are acting for cold, if sensible, commercial reasons: to retain permits to trade or the right to make a takeover in America, as well as to secure, if possible, an indemnity against existing or future claims.
Only recently, for example, the takeover of Bankers Trust by Deutsche Bank was held up for months by New York regulators who demanded a greater effort by German companies to retrieve Holocaust-era assets. “Blackmail” and “extortion” are some of the politer words that Swiss bankers muttered after the first claims against their banks.
Yet this still leaves a swathe of claims that deal not with material assets but with reparation, more broadly defined. Take the negotiations with Germany over forced labour. Although arguably labour itself can be valued, the effort to compensate surviving forced labourers—of whom there are between 700,000 and 2m, many in Eastern Europe, with an average age of about 80—is an unapologetically moral exercise. “Moral restitution” is an explicit part of the claim.
The same goes for the Swiss bank settlement. Though its most publicised elements are the wartime accounts, it also offers financial compensation for forced labour, and to refugees denied entry to Switzerland during the war. A separate deal reached earlier this month with Bank Austria and Creditanstalt, two (now merged) Austrian banks, also covers slave labour. Indeed, the WJC itself insists on remorse as a condition of its approval of any deal. In short, since it is hard to decouple claims for monetary and for moral compensation, it is hard to shrug off the faintly shabby air that hangs over the Holocaust claims.

Golfing Russian eagle on presidential seal at Trump rally projected onstage

WASHINGTON — White House officials on Thursday were baffled as to why a doctored presidential seal — including an eagle clutching golf clubs in its talons instead of arrows — was projected on stage at an event at which U.S. President Donald Trump spoke.
The seal was displayed on Tuesday at Turning Point USA’s student summit, where Trump gave a raucous 80-minute speech and was greeted warmly by the youthful audience.
The image included a two-headed eagle, instead of just one head, which the Washington Post said closely resembles the bird on the Russian coat of arms and also appears on the flags of Serbia, Albania and Montenegro.
The eagle has a set of golf clubs in its talons instead of the traditional seal’s clutch of arrows.
There were suspicions at the White House that the organizers had found the doctored image online and mistakenly used it.
“We never saw the seal in question before it appeared in the video,” said a White House official. “The White House had no knowledge of it.”
Officials referred questions to Turning Point USA, which could not immediately be reached for comment.
The political non-profit group was founded to organize conservative students on college campuses by Charlie Kirk, an outspoken supporter of Trump. It maintains a controversial Professor Watchlist of college professors it deems too liberal.
As a political non-profit, the group may raise and spend unlimited sums of money and engage in educational efforts around politics, but it is prohibited from using its resources to campaign for a candidate for elected office.

Bette Midler under fire for 'racist' Trump-bashing tweet
WENN - World Entertainment News Network

Bette Midler has come under fire for her latest tweets against U.S. President Donald Trump.
The singer and actress frequently speaks out against the reality star-turned-politician on her social media platforms. But the Beaches star’s latest post prompted backlash online, with fans accusing the star of being “racist”.
The 73-year-old shared a snap from one of the President’s re-election rallies, which included a handful of African-American men in the background.
In the caption, she wrote: “Look, there are African American men in this shot! How much did he pay them to be ‘blackground’?”
But the post didn’t sit well with fans, who called the star “racist” and “really sick” for suggesting black Trump supporters couldn’t make their own political choices.
“She thinks black men cannot think for themselves but are willing to be bribed,” wrote one user, while another tweeted, “She is the definition of a racist.”
“That’s some racist crap right there,” a third user added. “I guess an old, white woman like yourself gets to decide what and how black people should believe and vote.”
The feud between Midler and Trump heated up earlier this year when the president labelled the star a “washed up psycho.” While Trump’s supporters have slated the Midler, the controversy over her tweets doesn’t appear to have deterred her, and the star has continued to speak out against the U.S. government online.
