Tyrannical anti-Second Amendment measures , currently being rolled out by Virginia ’ s Governor Ralph Northam , have backfired spectacularly as gun sales soar to near all-time record highs in the state , according to reports .

Two patriotic Virginia sheriffs have declared they will not enforce Gov. Northam’s “unconstitutional” clampdown on firearms in the state, as more than 20,000 people converged in the streets of Richmond, Virginia on Monday to protest their constitutional right to bear arms.
At Monday’s rally, Sheriff Richard Vaughan of Grayson County said: ‘If the bills go through as proposed, they will not be enforced; they’re unconstitutional.’

Sheriff Scott Jenkins of Culpeper County said : ‘I’m not saying that I will not enforce duly enacted laws, but I’m not saying that I will.‘
Tens of thousands of patriots arrived in Richmond to demand their rights are respected in the face of tyrannical state gun control laws set to be enacted later this year.
They started arriving before dawn – army veterans, stay-at-home-moms, attorneys, carpenters, African-Americans, republicans – united under banners defending the second amendment and a constitution under attack.

Leading the charge on that front was Joe Biden, who had long standing ties to the region from his tenure leading the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Shortly after the new administration took office, Frank Biden began scouting real estate opportunities in Costa Rica. A lawyer by training, Frank was undeterred by his lack of background in international development and decades old legal troubles at home.
As Schweizer notes, despite the professional and personal handicaps, business opportunities were plentiful for Frank, especially after his brother paid a visit to the country.
“Just months after Vice President [Joe] Biden’s visit, in August, Costa Rica News announced a new multilateral partnership “to reform Real Estate in Latin America” between Frank Biden, a developer named Craig Williamson, and the Guanacaste Country Club, a newly planned resort,” Schweizer writes in his book, a copy of which was exclusively obtained by Breitbart News.

A letter the country’s president, Luis Guillermo Solis Rivera, penned praising the project even made its way on the internet in what appears to have been a botched attempt to solicit further investors.
In order to execute a project of such scale, however, Costa Rica would need to update and expand its electrical grid. Located on the Central American Isthmus, more than 51 percent of the country’s landscape is forested, with nearly half of that being land that has not been disturbed by human activity. As such, much of the area suitable for the type of resort Frank Biden wanted to build lacked access to electricity.
Frank, perhaps sensing a chance to make even more money, entered into a partnership with the Costa Rican National Power and Light Company (CNFL) to build a solar power complex in the country’s northwest region. The new facility would provide enough electricity to Frank’s resort, which was to be built in the vicinity.
The partnership with CNFL was secured even though Frank and his company, Sun Fund Americas, had no experience in the energy sector.
“Frank did not have any background in solar energy, but it was quite clear who he was when he pitched the project to investors,” Schweizer writes. “His brother Joe’s name figured prominently in his biography.”

newspunch--2020-01-21--Hillary Clinton Defends Years Long Harvey Weinstein Association

Hillary Clinton refuses to feel guilty about taking money from one of her most famous donors – disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein – because she calims she knew nothing about his alleged sexual misconduct .
Weinstein who is due to stand trial on rape and assault charges , has long been a major donor and fundraiser for the Democratic Party and reportedly brought in over $ 1.4 million to Clinton ’ s presidential campaign in 2016 .
Though Clinton claims she was unaware of the accusations against Weinstein , others say she was made well aware .
RT reports : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” former secretary of state and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton told the Hollywood Reporter in a Tuesday interview when asked about taking money from movie producer Harvey Weinstein , who is currently on trial for rape .
The ‘ Pulp Fiction ’ producer was “ outed ” in 2017 when the New York Times published a story detailing numerous accusations of sexual misconduct by Weinstein over the years .
Notable celebrities like Uma Thurman , Gwyneth Paltrow , Rose McGowan , and others came forward with stories of Weinstein either abusing or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ knew anything of the man ’ s alleged deeds , she would not have cashed the checks .
“ And of course , if all of us had known what we know now , it would have affected our behavior , ” she said .

Hillary Clinton refuses to feel guilty about taking money from one of her most famous donors – disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein – because she calims she knew nothing about his alleged sexual misconduct.
Weinstein who is due to stand trial on rape and assault charges, has long been a major donor and fundraiser for the Democratic Party and reportedly brought in over $1.4 million to Clinton’s presidential campaign in 2016.

Though Clinton claims she was unaware of the accusations against Weinstein, others say she was made well aware.
RT reports: “How could we have known?” former secretary of state and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton told the Hollywood Reporter in a Tuesday interview when asked about taking money from movie producer Harvey Weinstein, who is currently on trial for rape.
The ‘Pulp Fiction’ producer was “outed” in 2017 when the New York Times published a story detailing numerous accusations of sexual misconduct by Weinstein over the years. Notable celebrities like Uma Thurman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Rose McGowan, and others came forward with stories of Weinstein either abusing or harassing them.
Clinton claimed if she knew anything of the man’s alleged deeds, she would not have cashed the checks.
“And of course, if all of us had known what we know now, it would have affected our behavior,” she said. She also noted that Weinstein had donated to other prominent Democrats like Barack Obama.
Clinton’s words ring hollow for several reasons. Even if she can claim she was unaware of the accusations against Weinstein, multiple people have come forward to say that staffers around Clinton and her 2016 presidential campaign were in fact made well aware.
‘Girls’ actress and creator Lena Dunham told the New York Times that she had warned Clinton’s campaign against having Weinstein do any fundraising.
“I just want you to let you know that Harvey’s a rapist and this is going to come out at some point,” Dunham recalled telling campaign staffers. “I think it’s a really bad idea for him to host fundraisers and be involved because it’s an open secret in Hollywood that he has a problem with sexual assault.”
Journalist Tina Brown similarly said she warned the campaign.
“I was hearing that Harvey’s sleaziness with women had escalated since I left Talk in 2002 and she was unwise to be so closely associated with him,” she said to the Times.
These warnings were just some of the bad word of mouth surrounding Weinstein before he was exposed by the Times. Plenty of filmmakers were open about their disdain for the man and refused to work with him, Vincent Gallo among them, and others such as Seth MacFarlane openly mocked Hollywood’s silence on his relationship with actresses.
Ronan Farrow, who was behind the original expose on Weinstein, already said that Clinton publicist Nick Merrill had tried to convince him to not run with his Weinstein story.
Farrow claimed in his book ‘Catch and Kill’ that Merrill informed him in the summer of 2017 that the Weinstein expose was a “concern for us.”
At the time the Times story about Weinstein dropped, the producer was working on a film about Clinton.
Despite all of this, Clinton waves off Weinstein and claims ignorance — not a great strategy for someone looking to be a leader of any sorts.


newspunch--2020-01-21--Hillary Clinton Slams Bernie Sanders “Nobody Likes Him”

Hillary Clinton has triggered a backlash from all sides with her comments on the ‘ likability ’ of the current Democratic frontrunner Bernie Sanders .
Clinton , one of the most disliked presidential candidate in US history called her former competitor unlikeable and ineffective .
In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter Clinton claimed that “ nobody wants to work with him ” in the Senate .
RT reports : While the former secretary of state has long blamed Sanders , as well as Russia , former FBI director James Comey , WikiLeaks , actress Susan Sarandon , and dozens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ election loss , Tuesday ’ s attack comes on the heels of several polls placing Sanders at the front of the 2020 primary pack in key demographics .
More controversially , at least in a party for whom Trump has taken on mythical , Antichrist-like qualities , Clinton said she would not commit to backing Sanders if he is nominated to face off against President Donald Trump in the 2020 general election .
“ I ’ m not going to go there yet , ” she said in response to questions over whether @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matter who , ’ after eviscerating her former Senate colleague as a “ career politician ” who “ got nothing done.
” Clinton made a point of going after the Vermont senator ’ s supporters – accusing his “ online Bernie Bros ” of “ relentless attacks on lots of his competitors , particularly the women ” – in an attack reminiscent of her infamous “ basket of deplorables ” campaign speech which dismissed Trump supporters as bigoted rednecks .
Whether she forgot about her longtime strategist David Brock ’ s 2016 initiative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Breakers ” to attack Sanders supporters on social media , or merely hoped the reader had forgotten that ugly episode , wasn ’ t clear .
The Sanders campaign has never been accused of paying trolls to smear the senator ’ s rivals , however .
Even while criticizing the Sanders campaign as divisive , Clinton echoed Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren ’ s out-of-left-field claim that Sanders had told her a woman couldn ’ t be president ; a bombshell Warren dropped before the most recent Democratic debate which shattered an unspoken detente @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but called him a liar to his face on national TV .
Clinton reminded the audience she ’ d won the popular vote against Trump , a familiar line but one that Sanders himself used to defend himself against Warren ’ s charge .
Commentators on social media pointed out that Clinton might not want to try to go head-to-head with Sanders on “ likability.
” The democratic socialist from Vermont was rated highest in Morning Consult ’ s most recent Senate poll , while Clinton herself was disliked by more than half @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against Trump .
Others pointed out that when one moves in Clinton ’ s circles , “ likability ” is at best abstract , and at worst irrelevant .

"Nobody likes him" — except for the American people, who rate him the nation's most popular politician. But who cares about voters? Certainly not a failed presidential candidate who lost to a reality TV host.
