newspunch--2020-01-27--Adam Schiff Says He Feels ‘Threatened’ by ‘Wrathful and Vindictive’ President Trump

Rep. Adam Schiff says he feels threatened by President Trump over a tweet posted Sunday warning Schiff that he “ has not paid the price , yet , for what he has done to our Country.
” “ Shifty Adam Schiff is a CORRUPT POLITICIAN , and probably a very sick man .
He has not paid the price , yet , for what he has done to our Country !
” Trump tweeted on Sunday .
Following the tweet , Schiff complained to host Chuck Todd on NBC ’ s Meet the Press that he felt under attack .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ and vindictive ” .
Thegatewaypundit.com reports : Todd asked Schiff about his monumental gaffe Friday night during the impeachment trial when he alienated persuadable Republican senators by repeating an anonymous CBS report that a Trump “ confidante ” had relayed a threat that senators voting against Trump in the trial would ‘ have their heads on pikes ’ .
EXCLUSIVE : @ RepAdamSchiff : “ Look at the president ’ s tweets about me today saying I should pay a price.. ” @ chucktodd : “ Do you take that as a threat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think it is intended to be.
” Schiff was the one who brought up the tweet , not Todd .
It should be noted that Schiff won his seat in 2000 ( twenty years ago ) when he was supported by the Clinton machine to exact revenge on Clinton impeachment House Manager Rep. James Rogan ( R-CA ) and make Rogan pay the price for impeaching President Bill Clinton .
What do you make of the criticism that some Republican senators , who you might want to see vote for witnesses , didn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a pike ” comment ?
Murkowski , Collins , and Ernst .
All three Republican senators who are — might be open to witnesses thought you got too personal .
Well , I don ’ t think it was personal to refer to the CBS story .
What may be personal though , and I think I have to be very candid about this , is I made the argument that it ’ s going to require moral courage to stand up to this president .
And this is a wrathful and vindictive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there ’ s any doubt about it .
And if you think there is , look at the president ’ s tweets about me today , saying that I should pay a price .
Do you take that as a threat ?
I think it ’ s intended to be .
But , look , it is going to be very difficult for some of these senators to stand up to this president .
It really is .
There ’ s just no question about it .
And , and I want to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t want to acknowledge it in a way that is offensive to them , but I do want to speak candidly about it .
And if this weren ’ t an issue , there wouldn ’ t be an issue about calling witnesses .
If we can ’ t even get the senators to agree to call witnesses in a trial , it shows you just how difficult that moral courage is .
Well , we ’ re going to try to have that conversation in a second .
Chairman Adam Schiff , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — — views .
We ’ ll be watching next week .
Senate Republicans do seem increasingly unlikely to agree to hear any witnesses at the impeachment trial .
Nearly two weeks ago , Republican Senator Mike Braun of Indiana suggested if Democrats do want to hear from witnesses , it would come at a price .

The Dukes failure to cooperate with the FBI comes despite his earlier promises to help investigations in any way possible.
RT reports: Speaking outside the mansion formerly owned by Epstein, attorney Geoffrey Berman said Andrew has not yet responded to the FBI’s request and has offered “zero cooperation” so far. That’s despite the British royal earlier saying that he would be willing to help “any appropriate law enforcement agency” in conducting their investigations into sexual assault claims made against Epstein and the co-conspirators who aided him.
“[Prince Andrew] publicly offered, indeed in a press release, to cooperate with law enforcement investigating the crimes committed by Jeffrey Epstein and his co-conspirators,” Berman continued.

With that in mind Mr Page said that he believed nothing would come of it, as there is ‘no evidence that could come to light which would put him in the frame’.
He added that even if the FBI were to request information from the Royal Protection Command then they would receive a no, and stated that they would not receive any documentation from the British police.
Mr Page said if Andrew’s legal team felt there had been any possibility of an indictment, then they would have not let him do the now infamous Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis.
He also claimed that Andrew has now taken steps to distance himself from Ghislaine

At last our elected representatives are listening and classrooms across the nation are slowly but surely returning to the gold standard of reading, writing, and arithmetic.
Gov. DeSantis said at a press conference that his new “Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking” (B.E.S.T.) standards, which will be released in the coming days, will mark a “return to the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic,” reported Fox 13 News.
With the B.E.S.T. standards, the governor said Florida students will “understand the principles that make America great.”
Breitbart report: One year ago, DeSantis issued an executive order that called for the elimination of the Common Core Standards, which former Gov. Jeb Bush (R) had urged the state to adopt. Ultimately, the state “rebranded” the Common Core as the Florida Standards.
In his order, DeSantis instructed the state education commissioner to complete a review of the Florida K-12 academic standards for English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics and submit it to the governor with recommendations for revisions by January 1, 2020.
The governor said in a press release announcing the new standards:
When I took office, I made a pledge to the citizens of Florida to overhaul our educational standards to remove all vestiges of Common Core and return to the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic. I am pleased that this historic task has been completed and we are well on our way to making Florida the best state in the nation for education. My deepest thanks to Commissioner Corcoran and Department of Education staff, Florida teachers, parents, subject matter experts and stakeholders for their participation in this transparent, in-depth and comprehensive process.
Florida Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran said DeSantis “has proven once again that he is the Education Governor.”
Some of the major changes to the K-12 standards include:
Place reading at the core of the standards development process;
Place elevated focus on memorizing math facts;
Content-rich standards that focus on classic literature;
Define rigor as the product of maintaining high expectations for students
“This is definitely a great step forward because what I’ve seen of the draft, all of our suggestions were taken into consideration,” said middle school teacher Seth Federman, who helped revise the standards.
One of the areas DeSantis said he wanted to emphasize in K-12 standards was civics.
The new B.E.S.T. standards will fulfill the governor’s mandate to “identify opportunities to equip high school graduates with sufficient knowledge of America’s civics, particularly the principles reflected in the United States Constitution, so as to be capable of discharging the responsibilities associated with American citizenship.”
Today, I’m pleased to announce my support for the Florida Civics and Debate Initiative with The Marcus Foundation to provide opportunities for Florida students to debate issues related to American civics. Info here – https://t.co/eJCJ1O43ee pic.twitter.com/teTjX8XGq5 — Ron DeSantis (@GovRonDeSantis) January 27, 2020
Changes to the curriculum will include a civics literacy examination for all high school seniors and a recommended reading list that includes America’s significant foundational documents.
Federman said the B.E.S.T. standards will prepare Florida’s students for the outside world by emphasizing civics for all K-12 students.
“A successful child is a successful citizen if they know their rights as a citizen,” the teacher said.
Corcoran said the new standards “represent the highest quality knowledge-based standards in the nation.”
“They not only incorporate civics throughout every grade, a first of their kind in the nation, ensuring that our students are well versed in the United States Constitution and the responsibilities of citizenship, they also provide educators with clear and concise standards,” he added.

newspunch--2020-01-28--Joe Biden Claims ‘Transgender Equality’ is the ‘Civil Rights Issue of Our Time’

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has claimed that “ transgender equality is the civil rights issue of our time , ” and vowed there will be “ no room for compromise ” on the issue under his presidency .
The declaration appears to imply that Biden , if elected president , will enforce transgender ideology on 325 million Americans with “ no room for compromise , ” whether in the military , sports , schools , bathrooms and healthcare .
The announcement was sent in a tweet from Biden ’ s election campaign , as the former vice president pushes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( I-VT ) who has been surging in recent polls .
Biden ’ s comments came one day after hundreds of thousands marched in Washington D.C. at the annual March for Life demanding the right to life for unborn children targeted for abortion .
Pro-life advocates say that the right to life is the greatest human rights issue of the day and is the foundation of all other rights .
President Donald Trump stated at the event : “ We are here for a very simple reason : to defend the right of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to fulfill their God-given potential.
” Former transgender James Shupe , America ’ s first legally “ non-binary ” person who has since reclaimed his ‘ male birth sex , offered a short litany about the disastrous impact transgenderism has had on society , and in particular , on women and girls .
“ Men in women ’ s bathrooms with little girls .
Males winning 1st place in female sports .
Males in women ’ s homeless shelters .
Male predators being placed in female prisons based on ‘ feelings ’ of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ And Biden calls it the civil rights issue of our time .
Women do you agree ?
” he asked .
Children ’ s rights activist Katy Faust , founder of Them Before Us fired back at Biden for his tweet , countering : “ Let ’ s be clear , children ’ s rights to their mother & father is the civil rights issue of our time.
” “ Failing to defend this basic human right [ equals ] commodifying children & giving them to any adult with the money/means @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ Didn ’ t we fight a Civil War to end that practice ?
” she added .
“ You just lost my vote , ” said Twitter user Tara .
“ If all the Dems insist on sacrificing women ’ s and girls ’ sex-based protections to transrights activists , they will lose , and they should lose .
Whoever protects sex , not ‘ gender identity , ’ in Title IX has my vote.
” “ Lets [ sic ] be clear : You want men who ‘ feel like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ room with women and girls , ” tweeted Miss S. “ You want to take away women ’ s sex based rights because it makes trans males feel better .

John Kapoor , the billionaire founder of the pharmaceutical company Insys Therapeutics , has been sentenced to 5-and-a-half years in prison for orchestrating a criminal scheme of bribes and kickbacks to physicians who prescribed large amounts of a fentanyl spray to patients who didn ’ t need the deadly painkiller .

John Kapoor and four other executives were convicted last May of a criminal conspiracy to bribe doctors to prescribe a highly addictive fentanyl spray to patients who didn’t need it.
One of the defendants allegedly gave a lap dance to a doctor at a company event in order to persuade him to prescribe the drug.
Legal experts say the sentencing should be a warning to other drug company executives who have engaged in deceptive marketing practices and other schemes to push opioids.
The historic case, which included indictments going back to 2016, centered on a fentanyl-based pain medication called Subsys, a powerful, highly addictive and potentially dangerous narcotic intended to treat patients with cancer suffering from intense pain. Through an elaborate scheme, prosecutors said the Arizona-based company bribed doctors to prescribe the drug to their patients and tricked health insurance companies about their conditions.

Prosecutors asked that Kapoor be taken into custody immediately after the hearing, citing his vast connections overseas. But Burroughs denied that request. Kapoor is set to report to prison March 5. His attorneys requested a facility near Tuscon, Arizona.
Kapoor exited the back of the courthouse and declined to comment.
His attorney, Beth Wilkinson, acknowledged the patients’ pain, but said the government misrepresented the “real John Kapoor,” who helped others with other drugs and charity work aimed at cancer.
“Judge him on his entire life,” she said, recounting a difficult upbringing in India, where Kapoor was born and raised. “The 70 years of history that Mr. Kapoor has shows no sign of greed. He wanted to do something that would help other people.”
U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling, addressing reporters outside, said the sentences of Kapoor and other Insys executives were not just aimed at punishing the defendants but were intended to deter others from committing the same acts.
“It’s about making the next pharma company think twice about its sales tactics and think hard about its basic responsibility as a corporate entity and about not victimizing the public so it can make more money,” Lelling said.
He said he respected the court’s decision, but thinks Kapoor’s prison term should have been longer and worries he could flee before reporting to prison.

Prince Andrew is refusing to cooperate with the FBI ’ s ongoing investigation into Epstein ’ s child sex trafficking ring .
According to U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman , the FBI and prosecutors had repeatedly contacted Prince Andrew ’ s lawyer requesting an interview , but the Duke has been uncooperative .

Prince Andrew is refusing to cooperate with the FBI’s ongoing investigation into Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring.
According to U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman, the FBI and prosecutors had repeatedly contacted Prince Andrew’s lawyer requesting an interview, but the Duke has been uncooperative.

“To date, Prince Andrew has provided ZERO cooperation,” Berman told reporters.
Breitbart.com reports: The Associated Press has asked Buckingham Palace for comment.
Andrew announced last year that he was withdrawing from his royal duties amid renewed attention of his friendship with Epstein, and a woman’s claim that she had several sexual encounters with the prince, starting when she was 17.
Virginia Roberts Giuffre says that after meeting her in Florida in 2000, Epstein flew her around the world and pressured her into having sex with numerous older men, including Andrew, two senior U.S. politicians, a noted academic, wealthy financiers and the attorney Alan Dershowitz, who is now part of President Donald Trump’s impeachment defense team.
All of those men have denied the allegations.
Giuffre has said she had sex with Andrew three times at Epstein’s request, including once in London in 2001 at the home of Epstein’s girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell.
