Plus, former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg folds his campaign and Democratic New York Sen. Chuck Schumer threatens two Supreme Court justices.
Listen to the show:
Hand sanitizer is impossible to find and Costcos are running out of toilet paper and bottled water. Through misinformation, the media is creating a panic so they can cover the panic. We get into it.
So much of what happens on so-called news shows is not news, and the people on them know little to nothing about the subjects they discuss. But because they’re on TV, audiences assume they know what they’re talking about. The latest example of this media ignorance comes from the ladies on “The View,” but by no means is it limited to them. We expose it all.
After a horrible “Super Tuesday,” Bloomberg ended his presidential campaign. It seems a half of a billion dollars and a victory in American Samoa wasn’t enough to keep setting huge piles of money on fire. We discuss what it means for the race.
At a pro-abortion rally Wednesday on the steps of the Supreme Court, Schumer warned conservative justices they would “pay the price” if they did not side with liberals on an abortion case before the court.

Just three weeks before he publicly threatened two Supreme Court justices , Democratic New York Sen. Chuck Schumer called on Chief Justice John Roberts to rebuke President Donald Trump .

thedailycaller--2020-03-06--The American Bar Association Moves Toward Gun Control

How many lawyers does it take to… stop me if you have heard that joke before ?
Sadly , what the American Bar Association ( ABA ) has done recently is no laughing matter .
Apparently , currying political favor is more important to the ABA than fulfilling its core mission .
The ABA recently ramped up its attempts to restrict lawful gun ownership and further stigmatize the firearm industry .
The association , which sets professional and academic standards expected of those practicing law , recently adopted three resolutions that abandon core American liberties .
The ABA ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our members , our profession and the public by defending liberty and delivering justice as the national representative of the legal profession.
” Despite that , the association passed resolutions on so-called “ ghost guns , ” firearm permits and mandatory firearm storage requirements .
Take another read of that mission statement , especially the part about defending liberty .
It ’ s curious that there ’ s no mention of publicly advocating for the erosion of Constitutional rights .
Yet , this is exactly what they ’ re doing .
The ABA @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gun owners and touts that it has been a “ leader on the issue of gun violence ” for over 50 years .
The ABA ’ s Standing Committee on Gun Violence will take tax-deductible donations and work on its ’ “ evidence-informed policy , education , and advocacy.
” This one-sided political activism flies in the face of the ABA ’ s own mission – to serve members equally .
There is , for example , no ABA Standing Committee for Advancing and Protecting the Second Amendment .
The ABA fights fiercely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in our Constitution .
Resolution 107A focuses on “ ghost guns ” and urges the government to criminalize the sale or transfer of an unfinished frame or receiver .
The proposal presents so-called “ ghost guns ” as a growing threat and argues that they are being increasingly used by people who can not legally possess or buy firearms ( criminals ) .
This flawed proposal will only target law-abiding citizens who have long enjoyed the right to make their own firearms , which has always been legal for law-abiding individuals .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ require gun permit applicants to apply in person , be fingerprinted and have both a criminal records and background check completed .
This is step one to a registry for law-abiding firearm owners and is a severe burden on gun owners .
It ’ s alarming the association of lawyers would advocate for the government to maintain lists of Americans who choose to exercise their civil rights .
The only presumption of the maintenance of these “ lists ” is that these law-abiding citizens are potentially dangerous and must be monitored .
All @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exercising a God-given right protected by the Constitution .
Imagine the ( justifiable ) outcry if the government kept lists of those that exercised other constitutional rights ?
Justice Clarence Thomas , in dissent of a denial of certiorari petition , noted that the Second Amendment is treated with less dignity than other constitutional rights .
Mandatory storage laws , their third proposal , prescribed by the government will not increase safety .
The firearm industry has long championed the safe and responsible use and storage of firearms .
For example , for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ behalf of our industry , has partnered with over 15,000 law enforcement agencies in every state and U.S. territory , to distribute over 38 million firearm safety education kits including a free cable-style gun lock .
We recognize that there isn ’ t a “ one size fits all ” prescription .
Having the government mandate what must be done to secure a firearm strips the individual firearm owner from making their own responsible choice for their situation .
The resolution requires firearm owners to meet these requirements but doesn ’ t state @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gun owner is in compliance with the law .
It is not unreasonable to think that this proposal would in fact erode public liberty by leading to unreasonable search and seizure of law-abiding citizens .
The Supreme Court in its landmark Heller decision held that the District of Columbia ’ s mandatory storage law was unconstitutional .
The only saving grace from the ABA ’ s announcement was from Darin Scheer , a delegate from Wyoming who states that he didn ’ t believe it was a “ core function ” of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Scheer is correct .
He might have more success in proposing a revision to ABA ’ s mission statement than actually getting them to focus on it .
Given the ABA ’ s chosen course of destroying , instead upholding Constitutional rights , a more honest mission statement might read , “ To serve equally our members , our profession and the public by defending liberty and delivering justice as the national representative of the legal profession , so long as those members don ’ t value their individual , God-given right to @ @ @ @ @ @

Yet, this is exactly what they’re doing. The ABA has long been against the rights of gun owners and touts that it has been a “leader on the issue of gun violence” for over 50 years.
Standing Committee Against Guns
The ABA’s Standing Committee on Gun Violence will take tax-deductible donations and work on its’ “evidence-informed policy, education, and advocacy.” This one-sided political activism flies in the face of the ABA’s own mission – to serve members equally. There is, for example, no ABA Standing Committee for Advancing and Protecting the Second Amendment. The ABA fights fiercely to protect other rights not actually written in our Constitution.
Resolution 107A focuses on “ghost guns” and urges the government to criminalize the sale or transfer of an unfinished frame or receiver. The proposal presents so-called “ghost guns” as a growing threat and argues that they are being increasingly used by people who cannot legally possess or buy firearms (criminals). This flawed proposal will only target law-abiding citizens who have long enjoyed the right to make their own firearms, which has always been legal for law-abiding individuals.
The second resolution asks that law enforcement officials require gun permit applicants to apply in person, be fingerprinted and have both a criminal records and background check completed. This is step one to a registry for law-abiding firearm owners and is a severe burden on gun owners. It’s alarming the association of lawyers would advocate for the government to maintain lists of Americans who choose to exercise their civil rights. The only presumption of the maintenance of these “lists” is that these law-abiding citizens are potentially dangerous and must be monitored. All that, they argue, just for exercising a God-given right protected by the Constitution. Imagine the (justifiable) outcry if the government kept lists of those that exercised other constitutional rights? Justice Clarence Thomas, in dissent of a denial of certiorari petition, noted that the Second Amendment is treated with less dignity than other constitutional rights.
Unconstitutional Storage Laws
Mandatory storage laws, their third proposal, prescribed by the government will not increase safety. The firearm industry has long championed the safe and responsible use and storage of firearms. For example, for over 20 years the NSSF, on behalf of our industry, has partnered with over 15,000 law enforcement agencies in every state and U.S. territory, to distribute over 38 million firearm safety education kits including a free cable-style gun lock. We recognize that there isn’t a “one size fits all” prescription. Having the government mandate what must be done to secure a firearm strips the individual firearm owner from making their own responsible choice for their situation. The resolution requires firearm owners to meet these requirements but doesn’t state how the government would confirm whether a gun owner is in compliance with the law. It is not unreasonable to think that this proposal would in fact erode public liberty by leading to unreasonable search and seizure of law-abiding citizens. The Supreme Court in its landmark Heller decision held that the District of Columbia’s mandatory storage law was unconstitutional.
The only saving grace from the ABA’s announcement was from Darin Scheer, a delegate from Wyoming who states that he didn’t believe it was a “core function” of the ABA to consider Second Amendment issues. Scheer is correct. He might have more success in proposing a revision to ABA’s mission statement than actually getting them to focus on it. Given the ABA’s chosen course of destroying, instead upholding Constitutional rights, a more honest mission statement might read, “To serve equally our members, our profession and the public by defending liberty and delivering justice as the national representative of the legal profession, so long as those members don’t value their individual, God-given right to keep and bear arms.”

thedailycaller--2020-03-06--San Francisco Ignored ICE And Released An Illegal Alien Who Had Been Arrested Seven Times

• Immigration and Customs Enforcement ( ICE ) agents apprehended an illegal alien who was near a courthouse in San Francisco on Tuesday , and he since remains in ICE custody .
• The alien touted a storied criminal history , having been arrested at least seven times and carried three different felony convictions .
• ICE had previously lodged eight different detainer requests for the individual , but all were ignored because of sanctuary laws that prohibit cooperation with federal immigration authorities .
San Francisco ignored multiple pleas by federal immigration authorities to transfer custody of a criminally convicted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leaders will go to refuse cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement ( ICE ) .
ICE ’ s Enforcement and Removal Operations officers apprehended an unnamed illegal alien near a courthouse in San Francisco , California , on Tuesday , the agency revealed in a press release .
The arrest marked the latest development in an ongoing saga between ICE and San Francisco officials regarding this particular alien , whom they refused to hand over despite his extensive criminal history .
The illegal alien , who was not identified by the agency , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at least seven times in the past five years .
ICE had lodged eight detainers with law enforcement following his arrests , but the agency said that because of “ sanctuary laws , ” he was able to be released back into the community each time .
“ For many years , the city and county of San Francisco has refused to cooperate with ICE — much to their own detriment , ” said ICE San Francisco Field Office Director David Jennings .
“ Criminals like this individual are released to reoffend again @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ A simple phone call to ICE to arrange the secure transfer of such individuals would serve the hard working residents of the city far more than a misguided sanctuary policy that , as proven here and numerous times in the past , goes to great lengths to protect criminals under the guise of protecting the citizenry.
” The illegal alien was a convicted criminal , carrying three felony convictions for second-degree burglary from 2019 , 2017 and 2016 .
Fortunately for federal immigration authorities , the individual was finally apprehended by ICE @ @ @ @ @ @ @ immigration proceedings .
He will likely be deported back to his home country .
ICE criticized San Francisco for ignoring its detainer requests , which are requests by the agency to local law enforcement , asking them to hold on to an illegal alien in their custody long enough for an ICE agent to arrive and make an apprehension .
When an illegal alien is arrested by local law enforcement for an unrelated crime , ICE is typically alerted and will lodge an immigration detainer to whichever officials have custody of the individual @ @ @ @ @ @ @ across the country are ignoring ICE detainer requests , and refusing to cooperate with the agency for most instances .
San Francisco , a progressive bastion within a deep blue state , is no exception .
“ Our department is not involved in immigration enforcement , ” Paul Miyamoto , the city ’ s newly elected sheriff , declared in February .
“ We feel that is a federal matter , and our realm of interest is public safety , and you can ’ t really have a safe community if the community @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to report crimes.
” Miyamoto ’ s directive , however , is mostly redundant given that California law already restricts most cooperation between the state ’ s law enforcement and ICE .

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents apprehended an illegal alien who was near a courthouse in San Francisco on Tuesday, and he since remains in ICE custody.
The alien touted a storied criminal history, having been arrested at least seven times and carried three different felony convictions.
ICE had previously lodged eight different detainer requests for the individual, but all were ignored because of sanctuary laws that prohibit cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
San Francisco ignored multiple pleas by federal immigration authorities to transfer custody of a criminally convicted illegal alien, revealing how far city leaders will go to refuse cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations officers apprehended an unnamed illegal alien near a courthouse in San Francisco, California, on Tuesday, the agency revealed in a press release. The arrest marked the latest development in an ongoing saga between ICE and San Francisco officials regarding this particular alien, whom they refused to hand over despite his extensive criminal history.
The illegal alien, who was not identified by the agency, had been arrested by local law enforcement at least seven times in the past five years. ICE had lodged eight detainers with law enforcement following his arrests, but the agency said that because of “sanctuary laws,” he was able to be released back into the community each time.
“For many years, the city and county of San Francisco has refused to cooperate with ICE — much to their own detriment,” said ICE San Francisco Field Office Director David Jennings. “Criminals like this individual are released to reoffend again and again,” Jennings continued. “A simple phone call to ICE to arrange the secure transfer of such individuals would serve the hard working residents of the city far more than a misguided sanctuary policy that, as proven here and numerous times in the past, goes to great lengths to protect criminals under the guise of protecting the citizenry.” The illegal alien was a convicted criminal, carrying three felony convictions for second-degree burglary from 2019, 2017 and 2016. Fortunately for federal immigration authorities, the individual was finally apprehended by ICE agents Tuesday, and he remains pending immigration proceedings. He will likely be deported back to his home country. ICE criticized San Francisco for ignoring its detainer requests, which are requests by the agency to local law enforcement, asking them to hold on to an illegal alien in their custody long enough for an ICE agent to arrive and make an apprehension. When an illegal alien is arrested by local law enforcement for an unrelated crime, ICE is typically alerted and will lodge an immigration detainer to whichever officials have custody of the individual. However, more states and localities across the country are ignoring ICE detainer requests, and refusing to cooperate with the agency for most instances. San Francisco, a progressive bastion within a deep blue state, is no exception.
“Our department is not involved in immigration enforcement,” Paul Miyamoto, the city’s newly elected sheriff, declared in February. “We feel that is a federal matter, and our realm of interest is public safety, and you can’t really have a safe community if the community members are afraid to come to us to report crimes.”
Miyamoto’s directive, however, is mostly redundant given that California law already restricts most cooperation between the state’s law enforcement and ICE. The California Values Act, which has been in effect since January 2018, prohibits local and state agencies from horning ICE detainers, and further restricts the agency’s ability to apprehend criminal illegal aliens.
Jennings left the door open for a sit-down conversation with San Francisco leaders about what’s best for community safety, but he also made clear that he will not stand for sanctuary laws that keep his agents from removing criminal illegal aliens.

Breast Cancer-Reducing Orgasms And Naked Toddlers: Some Of The Strangest Things Bernie Sanders Wrote About When He Was Younger

From his proclamation that billionaires should be taxed out of existence to his positive comments about communist Cuba , Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has not been a stranger to contentious statements .
However , before he made a name for himself as the nation ’ s most prominent “ democratic socialist , ” Sanders was a prolific writer , and some of the things he chose to write about might turn far more heads than any Medicare for All proposal or comment about the Cuban literacy rate .
Sanders had some thoughts about what really causes cancer while living @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the University of Chicago .
In 1969 , he claimed in an article written for the Vermont Freeman that sexual inactivity contributed to women ’ s breast cancer .
“ The manner in which you bring up your daughter with regard to sexual attitudes may very well determine whether or not she will develop breast cancer , among other things , ” Sanders wrote in the article — dubbed “ Cancer , Disease and Society.
” “ How much guilt , nervousness have you imbued in your daughter with regard to sex @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same article , Sanders also posited the theory that most diseases were psychosomatic and that a “ revolution in society could eliminate disease.
” “ Will society be changed so as you fit the needs of the human organism , ” he wrote , “ or will the human organism continue to be adapted , molded , and crushed to fit into basically insane and disease provoking patterns ?
” ( RELATED : Sanders Once Said He Didn ’ t Understand ‘ What ’ s So Wrong ’ With Cuba , Former Prisoner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1981 — the year he first took office as mayor of Burlington , Vermont — in another article , “ Disease , to a large degree , is caused by the way we live in society.
” “ I have my own feelings about what causes cancer and the psychosomatic aspects of cancer , ” Sanders doubled down at a media event in 1988 .
While Sanders cited a study from 1954 to support his stance , the American Cancer Society has stated that there is no evidence that “ emotions can cause @ @ @ @ @ @ @ another 1969 article for the Vermont Freeman , Sanders argued that young children should be allowed to be naked , and even touch each other ’ s genitals , in order to foster healthy sexual attitudes between girls and boys .
He also noted that such a revolution in gender relations would wipe out the pornography industry .
“ In Vermont , at a state beach , a mother is reprimanded by Authority for allowing her 6-month-old daughter to go about without her diapers on , ” he wrote .
“ Now , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are liable to see each others sexual organs , and maybe even touch them .
Terrible thing !
If we ( raise ) children up like this it will probably ruin the whole pornography business , not to mention the large segment of the general economy which makes its money by playing on peoples sexual frustrations.
” This article became a point of contention in the 2020 campaign after an adviser to former New York City Mayor and then-presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg referenced it on the CNN show “ New Day.
” “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the polls because of this track record , ” Bloomberg senior adviser Tim O ’ Brien said about Sanders .
“ Bernie has loopy stuff in his background , saying women get cancer from having too many orgasms or toddlers should run around naked and touch each other ’ s genitals to insulate themselves from porn ?
” In a 1972 article — written eight years after he had graduated from the University of Chicago and in the same year he ran for governor of Vermont as a member of the Liberty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fantasies of men and women , including bondage and rape .
Sanders begins the article by stating that “ A man goes home and masturbates his typical fantasy .
A woman on her knees .
A woman tied up .
A woman abused.
” He continued , “ A woman enjoys intercourse with her man — as she fantasizes being raped by three men simultaneously … .
Do you know why the newspapers with the articles like ‘ Girl , 12 , raped by 14 men ’ sell so well ?
To what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ The rest of Sanders ’ article focused on the changing gender roles and stereotypes in the context of the counterculture movement in the late 1960s and early 1970s .
( RELATED : New Video Uncovered From Bernie Sanders ’ s USSR Honeymoon ) The article became a issue during Sanders ’ first run for the Democratic nomination in 2016 .
“ No , it was bad fiction .
I learned my lesson .
I think I could make a good president , but I write fiction pretty poorly , ” Sanders said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , after Mother Jones published an article in 2015 referencing his work .
The Sanders campaign also described the article to the Washington Post as a “ dumb attempt at dark satire intended to attack gender stereotypes in the 1970s , and it looks as stupid today as it was then.
” Sanders has become more famous for his statements about Cuba , the Soviet Union and the merits of “ democratic socialism , ” and has attempted to downplay his past literary ventures as experiments in stream of consciousness .

From his proclamation that billionaires should be taxed out of existence to his positive comments about communist Cuba, Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has not been a stranger to contentious statements.

Super Tuesday sent shockwaves through the Democratic Party , resurrecting one campaign and all but killing those that remained .
The end result is a virtual run-off from now until the Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee — and all the “ party of diversity ” has to offer is a choice between two of the oldest , whitest men in politics : former Vice President Joe Biden and independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders .

Steele’s glowing self-assessment is in stark contrast to the findings of the special counsel’s investigation and a Justice Department inspector general’s report on the FBI’s surveillance of Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
The FBI relied heavily on Steele’s information to obtain four warrants to wiretap Page.

Planned Parenthood President Blames American Support For Abortion Safety Requirements On A ‘Campaign Of Misinformation’

Acting Planned Parenthood president Alexis McGill Johnson said Thursday that American support for abortion safety requirements is due to a “ campaign of misinformation ” about abortion access .
McGill Johnson spoke on “ CBS This Morning ” regarding June Medical Services v. Russo , a Supreme Court case in which an abortion provider is challenging a 2014 Louisiana state law that requires abortion providers to have admitting privileges in a hospital within 30 miles of the abortion facility .
Opponents , including Planned Parenthood , say the law would hinder and potentially eliminate abortion access in Louisiana .
