Update… Police release photo of perp who killed UCLA grad student… Manhunt underway… Shawn Laval Smith, 31, should be considered armed and dangerous, according to the LAPD. Los Angeles County Jail records show Covina police arrested him on Oct. 27, 2020, on a misdemeanor charge. He was released on $1,000 bail. The outcome of that case was not immediately clear. Smith has a rap sheet that spans both coasts, including in San Francisco and South Carolina. His most recent charge is for shoplifting — and he landed up in jail in San Mateo after assaulting a police officer.

Arrest warrants count as ID for illegal aliens at airport security, TSA says TSA disclosed to a congressional office that illegal aliens flying without proper identification can use an arrest warrant as an alternate form of ID when presenting to airport security, according to a letter the Daily Caller News Foundation exclusively obtained. Responding to Republican Lance Gooden’s inquiry about illegals flying across the country, TSA Administrator David Pekoske explained that certain DHS documents may be considered acceptable forms of alternate identification for non-citizens, including a “Warrant for Arrest of Alien” and a “Warrant of Removal/Deportation.” “TSA’s response confirms the Biden Administration is knowingly putting our national security at risk. Unknown and unvetted immigrants shouldn’t even be in the country, much less flying without proper identification.” “TSA is committed to ensuring that all travelers, regardless of immigration status, are pre-screened before they arrive to the airport, have their pre-screening status and identification verified at security checkpoints, and receive appropriate screening based on risk before entering the sterile area of the airport,” Pekoske wrote.

Speaking of ugly people. I notice that Mrs. Kenyan looks like a black woman now - especially the hair. During their reign of terror, her hairstyles were like white womens'. Here’s to a sweet 58th! Thank you so much for your outpouring of love. Whether you texted, emailed, or posted on social media, every birthday message I received today meant a lot to me. Looking forward to seeing what this upcoming year has in store. 💕 pic.twitter.com/owA4Qidqwk — Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) January 17, 2022

I often wonder about that. In the past, I liked to separate the Dems into "disgusting lying liberals" which I thoroughly despise and the "old blue dog" Democrats, whose party seems to have left them. Could it be fear of their utlra left and threats of being primaried that scare them? The primary threats certainly don't bother Cheney, Kinzinger, Romney, McConnel etc. In either case, I then remind myself that 100% of the Dems voted to impeach Trump... twice, including Sinema and Manchin. Once after he left office! 100% signed on to the Mueller fiasco and fake Russian Collusion crap and went all-in on the phony Hillary dossier, and are right now harassing Trump's kids in New York. This is what ugly people do. The old-style Democrats of my parents in South Chicago no longer exist. It's time to open our eyes and realize it. If any are left, they don't show it when push comes to shove. They all fall in line for the good of their party, and NOT the Country. Today (and all year) the Dem leaders are outright lying about the voting rights bill and doing a total 180 as hypocrites do, on the filibuster. Thought provoking and I'd like to offer a few comments. 1) When you look at dims or Reps, I think we need to differentiate between voters and funding. Traditionally, the power in power will receive the lion's share of big business donations. They hedge their bets. Dims tend to come down a LOT harder on them than Reps so they tend to donate more to dims (fear of retribution). Dims get almost all the big institution $. Soros et al do throw some money at Reps. Big money pushes open borders, Globalism and socialization of out institutions. Some is donated out of fear and some to influence direction. Dims also get a lot of free publicity and Reps tend to get the opposite from Media 2) Much of the dims and reps (rinos) take a lot of direction from the big donors. They may also receive individual (small) donations but they many don't pay a lot of attention. 3) As you are well aware, many rinos don't represent us, they represent big money and the same is true for the dims. (currently) 4) Traditionally, the Dims have represented minorities and blue collar (union) voters. The Reps represented rural, small business and the religious. In the case of both parties, they have wandered far from the reservation. They have been bought. 5) For the last 30 years or so, both parties have been drifting from their base. Most conservatives want smaller government. The Dims want what they want, but the pols have not delivered. 6) Enter DJT who shatters the status quo. He goes after the former base of both parties. Groups that have been ignored and hurt via globalization, illegal immigration and asset inflation / job loss via fed action. If the Reps were bright they could follow in DJT;s steps and embrace the new coalition. 7) In essence both parties are fucking their base. 8) Minority groups don't trust the Reps (and why should they) because they associate us with the country club gin and cocktail set. DJT though made a dent, a big dent and is an existential threat to both globalists, the elite and leftists. It takes time to build trust, the dims are destroying it but a lot of the reps refuse to change their mode or abandon the big money donors. 9) I think the Dim voters fall into multiple categories and it is dangerous to not understand that fact especially if we try to pry away voters. I'd categorize them as: Bleeding hearts (white collar affluent), free stuff (they take more than they contribute), haters (just fucking unhappy people), one issue voters (i.e. feminazis, gays, climate clowns), other (forgetting for the moment) 10) The fundamental question of the day is "How much control over your life do you wish to cede to the government? 11) MAGA resonated with a huge forgotten segment of society who desired upward mobility, they are willing to work hard are are praying for a leader.
