Perplexing

So I'm sitting at home watching FOX right. They just announced Killary needs only 73 more delegates and she's the nominee. So it begs the question…what is the FBI waiting for? I'm sure they know by now if they are going to file charges. Why wait until she takes the next step in becoming the nominee? Doesn't that disrupt everything even further? Or is this a clear signal she's getting off Scott free?

Refreshing...but you'll never hear these words.

Memorial Day in perspective

And to think tranny's and illegals are more highly regarded than our Vets.

How in the fuck do you compare waiting in line at Disneyland to a Vet seeking a doctor's appointment? In fact, the waste of skin in the WH is more concerned about the health and well-being of the Gitmo dogs than our Vets!

Family of Kate Steinle files lawsuit over deadly shooting on San Francisco pier

If this had been a white police officer who fired his weapon at a suspected perpetrator, missed, the bullet then ricocheted and killed 17-year-old DeMarcus Jones there would have been a $6 million payday for his family. 

Guess the Steinle family doesn't know how the system works. Did they expect Barry to send his team of bloodhounds to SF sniffing out the situation like they did for Trayvon, Michael Brown, Freddie Gray etc...I mean c'mon your daughter was white! Did they assume, in what was a total failure, our masterful government was going to protect their daughter from an illegal who already had been deported 5 times? 

Open and shut case, right?

 

They won't see a dime. 

And who is partially to blame… the worthless Republican Congress who won't put an end to sanctuary cities.

BTW..sanctuary cities which are in direct violation of federal law would slowly disappear if when their "citizens" kill someone and there's a $10 million payout.

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

Relatives of the woman shot to death on a San Francisco pier last year filed a lawsuit Friday saying the illegal immigrant accused in the killing should have been in custody if not for a series of mistakes by city and federal workers.

The killing of Kate Steinle in July 2015 and the arrest of Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez put San Francisco's leaders on the defensive as critics and outside politicians called for a change in the city's sanctuary law. Despite national outrage, San Francisco's Board of Supervisors on Tuesday upheld those protections for people in the country illegally.

The sheriff at the time of the killing, Ross Mirkarimi, is named in the lawsuit, along with ICE and the Bureau of Land Management. Mirkarimi previously defended the release of the suspect, a repeat drug offender and habitual border-crosser.

Frank Pitre, the lawyer for Steinle's family, said the lawsuit points out "failures at every level." 

"We're approaching the one year anniversary of Katie's death and it is a particularly difficult time for the family." 

He said a seven-time convicted felon was able to obtain a BLM officer's handgun due to negligence and ICE agents did not pursue his deportation.

The murder case and the broader immigration issue made waves in the presidential race. Donald Trump vowed to scrutinize existing "sanctuary city" policies while Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders indicated their support for the rules.

Lopez-Sanchez pleaded not guilty in January to second-degree murder and other charges in the death. His lawyer, Matt Gonzalez, said the charge was too harsh because the shooting was inadvertent.

Steinle was shot in the back during an evening stroll with her father and a family friend along San Francisco's popular waterfront on July 1. She died in her father's arms.

Lopez-Sanchez told police that he found a gun wrapped in a T-shirt under a bench on the pier and that it fired accidentally when he picked it up. The weapon belonged to a Bureau of Land Management ranger, who reported it was stolen from his car in downtown San Francisco in June.

Ballistic experts testified at a September preliminary hearing that the shot ricocheted off the pier's concrete surface before striking Steinle.

"A champion marksman could not accurately hit a target after first striking a concrete surface," Gonzalez said.

Prosecutors say the second-degree murder charge is appropriate. If the judge dismisses the case, the district attorney could refile less-severe charges.

Lopez-Sanchez was in the country illegally after being released from a San Francisco jail despite a request from federal immigration authorities that local officials keep him in custody for possible deportation. Lopez-Sanchez was previously deported five times to his native Mexico.

Earlier this week, San Francisco officials upheld the city's strict sanctuary protections for people who are in the country illegally. 

Why?

The Board of Supervisors voted unanimously for a measure that clarifies when city workers, including police officers, can notify Immigration and Customs Enforcement of a person's immigration status. Generally, the defendant must be charged with a violent crime and is someone who has been convicted of a violent crime within the past seven years.

The measure, however, also grants San Francisco's sheriff leeway to contact immigration authorities in the limited cases of defendants charged with a felony if they have been convicted of other felonies in the past.

San Francisco and other municipalities across California have enacted so-called sanctuary policies of ignoring requests from Immigration and Customs Enforcement to hold inmates thought to be in the country illegally for deportation proceedings.

Why...are they fucking crazy?

Pocahontas back in the news

'Populist' Senator Elizabeth Warren made a quarter-million dollars flipping houses

Pocahontas... direct quote: 

“Donald Trump was drooling over the idea of a housing meltdown because it meant he could buy up a bunch more property on the cheap,” Warren said. “What kind of a man does that? Root for people to get thrown out on the street? Root for people to lose their jobs? Root for people to lose their pensions? Root for two little girls in Clark County, Nevada, to end up living in a van? What kind of a man does that?

“I’ll tell you exactly what kind,” Warren continued. “A man who cares about no one but himself. A small, insecure money-grubber who doesn’t care who gets hurt, so long as he makes some money off it. What kind of man does that? A man who will never be president of the United States.”

(Kind of makes you want to puke)

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

House flipping is commonly defined as the practice of buying and selling a home within six months, as the future senator did with the Hickman property. Warren held onto at least four other properties for longer periods, sometimes waiting a year before relinquishing ownership and, at other times, as long as seven years.

Warren bought two homes after they'd fallen into foreclosure. And though she spent money fixing up the Hickman home before selling it, records suggest she sold others at a significant profit without making any meaningful upgrades.

In 1993, Warren bought a foreclosed property on N.W. 14th Street in Oklahoma City for $4,000. National Review attempted to contact the couple who had owned it. No phone number or email could be found on record for them, and they did not respond to a letter mailed to their last known address, in Colorado. No public records could be found elaborating on the events that led to the foreclosure of their home. 

In 2004, Warren transferred the home to her brother, John Herring, and his wife, who sold it for $30,000 in 2006, a 650 percent increase over what Warren initially paid for it. Neither Warren nor her brother filed any permits to make improvements. 

In June 1993, Warren bought another foreclosed property in Oklahoma City, this one on West Wilshire Boulevard, for $61,000 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Because properties purchased from HUD are sold as is, and because foreclosed homes can have damage ranging from simple poor upkeep to stripped copper, "the only reason you do that is for profit," says Steve Stout, residential field supervisor at the Oklahoma County Assessor's Office.

A year after buying the foreclosed property on West Wilshire Boulevard, Warren also bought the house next door for $72,000. Despite filing no building permits to renovate at either property, Warren pocketed $34,000 in profits when she sold the first house in December 1994, and she and her husband, Bruce Mann, made an additional $32,000 when they sold the one next door in 1998.

How can she reconcile her populist rhetoric with flipping houses? She can't, of course, which is why she has refused to comment on the NRO story. Populists like Warren can't stand to be exposed as hypocrites, and given her lecturing and hectoring about the rich preying on the poor and middle class, it just wouldn't do to have it be known that she was as greedy and grasping as any enthusiastic capitalist out there.
