World's most polluted capital cities revealed as Delhi is ranked worst for air quality while Wellington is the best




The Democrats favorite pursuit, besides tax and spend, is perpetuating global warming climate change. We have heard it all, the Arctic ice is melting, polar bears disappearing, oceans rising, and who is to blame the United States. They offer all sorts of solutions from the ridiculous to the ludicrous most recently with the $93 trillion New Green Deal to put a halt to America's pollution of the atmosphere.


Then the reality sets in. These are the most polluted cities in the world. Of the capital cities researchers looked at, they found that only nine out of 62 cities tested for air pollution came in under the target of 10 micrograms per cubic millimeter of air. Red is the worst blue the best. I'm an advocate for clean air but this study concludes what we do isn't putting a dent in pollution when the rest of the world doesn't give a damn. Only DC is on the list and it's blue.  Thought for sure LA would be on it.




Researchers have revealed the world's most polluted capital cities, with Delhi, in India, ranking the worst followed closely by Dhaka, in Bangladesh. 

Residents in India's capital city were exposed to more than ten times the safe amount of air pollution on an average day, a study has shown.

Dhaka, in Bangladesh, ranked second-worst with ten times the safe limit while Kabul, in Afghanistan, ranked third, with six times the same limit. Probably suicide bomber residue.

America are you going to put up with this?





Remember when Hillary said, "Trump won't except the election results?"



Just when you thought the Mueller investigation costing over 25 million was coming to a close producing not one scintilla of Russian collusion the Democrats are now taking a different course in their quest to get Trump. 



This is truly unfrigginbelievable! It's a Democratic free for all! Let's go back into Trump's life and delve into every business transaction he ever conducted.  If they're looking to find as much dirt as possible check out the Clinton Foundation.  Meanwhile, Mexicans are entering the country in droves looking for the nearest Taco Bell. The entire Democratic Congress only goal is to destroy Trump at all cost. Aren't they supposed to be legislating?

House Judiciary Committee launches sweeping Trump probe

The House Judiciary Committee launched on Monday a sweeping investigation of President Trump and his inner circle that will focus on 3 broad spheres of interest: allegations of obstruction of justice, public corruption and other abuses of power.

Details: The panel sent document requests to 81 individuals and entities related to the president and allegations of possible misconduct, giving them a deadline of March 18 to respond. The president's business, charity, campaign, inaugural committee, and family are among those to receive document requests.


The big picture: House Judiciary chairman Jerrold Nadler said on Sunday that "it's very clear" President Trump obstructed justice — a noteworthy claim, given that impeachment proceedings against Trump would run through Nadler's committee. But House Democratic leaders aren't ready to move forward with impeachment yet, especially if it's going to go nowhere in the Republican-controlled Senate.

As Axios' Mike Allen notes, Democrats plan to pursue a slow-bleed strategy with lengthy public hearings and scores of witnesses to methodically pick apart Trump's finances and presidency.

Expect plenty of public hearings and aggressive pushes for documents as Democrats look to buy time before the 2020 elections.

WOW: KAMALA HARRIS’ FATHER GOES PUBLIC WITH SHOCKING FAMILY SECRET THAT COULD END HER 2020 RUN




So not only was she bonking Willie Brown...

 There's this. Remember now:

Looks like she may have to break out her own checkbook.

-------------------------------

On a tip from Ed Kilbane








The father of Sen. Kamala Harris has gone public with a shocking family secret that could end her 2020 presidential run.


Harris’ father, Stanford University economics professor emeritus Donald Harris, published an op-ed in Jamaica Global Online detailing how the Harris family used to own slaves.

Here’s part of what Donald Harris wrote in the piece:



My roots go back, within my lifetime, to my paternal grandmother Miss Chrishy (née Christiana Brown, descendant of Hamilton Brown who is on record as plantation and slave owner and founder of Brown’s Town) and to my maternal grandmother Miss Iris (née Iris Finegan, farmer and educator, from Aenon Town and Inverness, ancestry unknown to me).

The Harris name comes from my paternal grandfather Joseph Alexander Harris, land-owner and agricultural ‘produce’ exporter (mostly pimento or all-spice), who died in 1939 one year after I was born and is buried in the churchyard of the magnificent Anglican Church which Hamilton Brown built in Brown’s Town (and where, as a child, I learned the catechism, was baptized and confirmed, and served as an acolyte).

Looking back now I can say, with certainty and all due credit to Miss Iris, that it was this early intimate exposure to operation of the sugar industry at the local level of small-scale production with family labour and free wage-labour, coupled with my growing curiosity about how these things came to be, that led me, once I started reading about the history of Jamaica, to a closer study of the sugar industry.

I came then to understand its origin as a system of global production and commerce, based on slave labour, with Jamaica as a key component of that system from its very start.



That’s certainly a chilling admission and would not sit well with many American voters if true.


Soon after Donald Harris published the bombshell piece, PJ Media published a well-research, in-depth report providing more information on the slavery Harris’ family allegedly oversaw.



Hamilton Brown was born in 1776 in Ireland. He became a sugar plantation owner and founder of Brown’s Town in Jamaica, according to university papers, textbooks, and historical documents. Henry Whiteley wrote a pamphlet entitled “Three months in Jamaica in 1832, Comprising a Residence on a Sugar Plantation,” where he describes Brown’s views on his slaves:

The same day I dined at St. Ann’s Bay, on board the vessel I arrived in, in the company with several colonists, among whom was Mr. Hamilton Brown, representative for the parish of St. Ann in the Colonial Assembly… I was rather startled to hear that gentleman swear by his Maker that that Order should never be adopted in Jamaica; nor would the planters of Jamaica, he said, permit the interference of the Home Government with their slaves in any shape. A great deal was said by him and others present about the happiness and comfort enjoyed by the slaves, and the many advantages possessed by them of which the poor in England were destitute. Among other circumstances mentioned in proof of this, Mr. Robinson, a wharfinger, stated that a slave in that town had sent out printed cards to invite a part of his negro acquaintance to a supper party. One of these cards was handed to Mr. Hamilton Brown, who said he would present it to the Governor, as a proof of the comfortable condition of the slave population.




Here’s more from the PJ Media report:



But later that day, after he witnessed slaves being punished by Brown’s overseer, Whiteley wrote:

The first was a man of about thirty-five years of age. He was what is called a pen-keeper or cattle herd; and his offence was having suffered a mule to go astray. At the command of the overseer he proceeded to strip off part of his clothes, and laid himself flat on his belly, his back and buttocks being uncovered. One of the drivers then commenced flogging him with the cart whip. This whip is about ten feet long, with a short stout handle, and is an instrument of terrible power. It is whirled by the operator round his head, and then brought down with a rapid motion of the arm upon the recumbent victim, causing the blood to spring at every stroke. When I saw this spectacle now for the first time exhibited before my own eyes, with all its revolting accompaniments, and saw the degraded and mangled victim writhing and groaning under the infliction, I felt horror-struck. I trembled and turned sick; but being determined to see the whole to an end, I kept my station at the window. The sufferer, writhing like a wounded worm, every time the lash cut across his body, cried out, “Lord! Lord! Lord!” When he had received about twenty lashes, the driver stopped to pull up the poor man’s shirt (or rather smock frock), which had worked down upon his galled posteriors. The sufferer then cried, “Think me no man? Think me no man?” By that exclamation I understood him to say, “Think you I have not the feelings of a man?” The flogging was instantly recommenced and continued; the negro continuing to cry “Lord! Lord! Lord!” till thirty-nine lashes had been inflicted. When the man rose up from the ground, I perceived the blood oozing out from the lacerated and [illegible] parts where he had been flogged; and he appeared greatly exhausted. But he was instantly ordered off to his usual occupation.

Whiteley’s account goes on, describing one victim after the next, including women and young boys. It is truly sickening to read. Brown didn’t stop after the Jamaican slaves were freed. He attempted to make the Irish work on his plantation but failed when he was accused of trying to enslave more people. The historical accounts are so detailed that should Kamala Harris want to search out the families of the people her relative reportedly tortured, she would probably be able to find them.



If the reports are true that Harris’s family previously owned slaves, that could sink her 2020 presidential aspirations or greatly harm her campaign.

Former attorney general Eric Holder says he won’t run for president in 2020




The odds of him becoming the next president are about as good as John McCain's.

------------------------


After months of deliberation, former attorney general Eric Holder said Monday that he will not join the crowded and still-growing Democratic presidential field. 

“Though I will not run for president in 2020, I will continue to fight for the future of our country,” Holder said in a Washington Post op-ed in which he said Democrats “have a host of good options” for candidates to take on President Trump.

It was later determined following Holder's appointment of an exploratory committee ...
