Portland City Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty has spent the past few months calling for police to be defunded .
One of the biggest things she ’ s been pushing for is for cops not to be called for things that don ’ t involve actual crimes .
That ’ s why it ’ s come as bad news for her that it ’ s come out that she called 911 on a Lyft driver simply for cancelling a ride .
Driver Richmond Frost told The Oregonian that Hardest was “ rude and abusive ” to him , and that he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the Portland City Council until after their encounter .
“ She was not a pleasant person , ” Frost said .
“ That has nothing to do with her political position as a Portland council person .
I ’ m out here doing my job .
She was very disrespectful to me , made me uncomfortable .
I don ’ t feel like I have to sit in a car for anyone to have to argue unrelentingly and be rude and abusive , telling me what I have to do in my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Lyft to pick her up at a casino in Washington state on November 1 , and things went off the rails right away when there was a mixup with her pickup location , which Frost said made her angry .
Things got worse when Hardesty got in the car and demanded that close the windows , saying that she would not ride with them down despite the fact that this would increase the risk of spreading COVID-19 .
Lyft ’ s website specifically recommends that windows remain open for all rides .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ bit but left them open slightly , saying that he needed to do so for safety purposes .
This did not sit well with Hardesty .
“ I did say , ‘ It ’ s for my safety and your safety.

“ She demanded that I close that window right now .
She was kind of ballistic at that point.

Portland City Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty has spent the past few months calling for police to be defunded. One of the biggest things she’s been pushing for is for cops not to be called for things that don’t involve actual crimes.
That’s why it’s come as bad news for her that it’s come out that she called 911 on a Lyft driver simply for cancelling a ride.
Hardesty Calls 911 Over Cancelled Lyft Ride
Driver Richmond Frost told The Oregonian that Hardest was “rude and abusive” to him, and that he did not even know that she was on the Portland City Council until after their encounter.
“She was not a pleasant person,” Frost said. “That has nothing to do with her political position as a Portland council person. I’m out here doing my job. She was very disrespectful to me, made me uncomfortable. I don’t feel like I have to sit in a car for anyone to have to argue unrelentingly and be rude and abusive, telling me what I have to do in my own vehicle.”
Hardesty had called for a Lyft to pick her up at a casino in Washington state on November 1, and things went off the rails right away when there was a mixup with her pickup location, which Frost said made her angry.
Things got worse when Hardesty got in the car and demanded that close the windows, saying that she would not ride with them down despite the fact that this would increase the risk of spreading COVID-19. Lyft’s website specifically recommends that windows remain open for all rides.
Frost put the windows up a little bit but left them open slightly, saying that he needed to do so for safety purposes. This did not sit well with Hardesty.
“I did say, ‘It’s for my safety and your safety.’ But that was like pouring gas on her fire,” Frost recalled. “She demanded that I close that window right now. She was kind of ballistic at that point.”

The Situation Escalates
She was so enraged that Frost decided to take an early exit off Interstate 5.
“So I made a decision, it would be in the best interest for both of us to cancel the ride,” Frost said, adding that he pulled into a Chevron station. “It’s lit up like a football field. It’s safe. It’s warm. She could order another Lyft or Uber, whatever she wants to do, and I can be done, and I can get on with my work.”
This only made Hardesty more angry, and Frost said she told him, “‘Well, no, either you’re going to take me back to the casino or you’re going to take me to my destination.'”
She claimed that she had paid for the ride, even though Frost explained that he cancelled it already, which meant she would’t be charged. When Hardesty refused to get out of the vehicle, Frost asked if he’d have to call the police to get her out.
That’s when the woman who has been pushing to defund the police and have them not respond to calls that don’t involve actual crimes decided to call the cops herself.
“I’ve got a Lyft driver that decided he would just drop me off at a filling station,” Hardesty is quoted as saying in dispatch documents. “Well, I’m not getting out of the car, in the dark, at a filling station, not happening — all because I asked him to put the window up. I’m not leaving.”
“He says I’ve got to get out of his car, or he would call the police, so I decided to call for him,” she added.
The dispatcher told Hardesty multiple times that this was not a crime and that the vehicle was the driver’s property, but she still wanted police to come help her, saying, “I am not going to allow him to leave me at the side of the road.”
Police eventually arrived at the same time as another Lyft vehicle that Hardesty had called to take her home. She simply got into this car and left, without talking to officers.
“Peace restored and involved parties sent their separate ways,” read the dispatcher entry at 10:16pm.

Hardesty Complains To Lyft
Hardesty sent the following complaint to Lyft:
“I requested a ride, the driver came to the wrong pick up location. He then blamed me. I asked him to roll the window up on my side and he started to yell, ‘I can’t because the regulations require each window to be cracked (which isn’t true). He then pulls over in the dark on the side of a gas station and told me he was cancelling the ride. I had no interest in being left on the side of the road by an angry driver. He threaten [sic] to call the police. I called the police & another car. Both arrived at the same time. It is totally inappropriate to expect a woman to get out of a vehicle in the dead of night because any angry person demands it. This is a safety issue for your customer. Your driver was in no danger.”
Lyft responded by informing Hardesty that “drivers are free to end a ride for any reason as long as the drop off is in a safe location. Safety is our top priority. We take these matters very seriously. We encourage everyone using Lyft to be respectful of others. This helps maintain a safe and inclusive community.”
Hardesty claimed to the Portland Tribune that she “proactively” called police because Frost calling the cops on her “would put me in danger.”
“I don’t call 911 lightly, but I certainly am not going to do anything that would put my personal safety at risk,” she said. “It’s a lot harder when you are black or brown in America to make that decision.”
Hardesty added that it’s dangerous “for a single woman to be traveling anywhere, especially in this very racially tense time. People recognize me everywhere … I just was not going to take that chance.”
Despite the fact that Hardesty seems to see herself as a celebrity, Frost said he never recognized her.
“She was just another passenger,” Frost said, adding that he has fears that publicity from this incident will put him in some kind of danger. “I treat everybody the same. I try to be professional.”

Michael Moore Demands Biden Submit To The Radical Left – Abolish Electoral College, Embrace Socialism

The radically liberal documentary filmmaker Michael Moore has spoken out to demand that Joe Biden submit to the radical left , assuming he takes office in January .
In a lengthy letter posted to Facebook , Moore called on Biden to ditch centrism and embrace the progressive left by doing things like abolishing the Electoral college and enacting universal health care .
He also urged Biden to cater to the voters under the age of 35 who have come to love socialism : “ They [ centrists ] think because Trump got 70 million votes the Democrats should reject Black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that vaguely sounds like socialism — at a time when the majority of our citizens under the age of 35 , according to most polls , prefer the idea of democratic socialism over the greed of modern-day capitalism .
Why risk losing them ?
We need to listen to and understand why they feel this way .
They ’ ve been saddled with crushing student debt and we ’ ve handed them a planet In the middle of its 6th extinction event as their future .
You and Barack introduced them to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stay on their parents health insurance until they ’ re 26 !
The result : They just set a record by coming out and voting for you in the largest youth numbers ever.
” Moore wants Biden to charge into office “ like FDR on steroids , ” and to avoid being like Barack Obama , who the filmmaker said “ wanted everyone to get along .
He was willing to compromise on anything.
” RELATED : Michael Moore Outrageously Accuses Trump Of ‘ Killing Off His Voters – ‘ Does He Really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Electoral College is also high on Moore ’ s list as something that Biden needs to do .

Moore Demands Biden Abolish The Electoral College
Abolishing the Electoral College is also high on Moore’s list as something that Biden needs to do.
“You need to sign executive orders and cajole, demand and shame Congress into action,” he wrote. “And GO BIG! Eliminate the Electoral College through the National Popular Vote Act! DONE!”
Moore then demanded that Biden push through universal healthcare.
“Health Care is a human right and every American must be covered,” he wrote. “You MUST create a health system like every other industrial democracy — one backed by the government, not by the whims of the boss where you work or the pandemic that has shut him or her down. This is just plain common sense.”
Perhaps the most disturbing part of Moore’s letter comes when he indicates that he believes that anything that helped President Donald Trump needs to be eliminated.
“We are all eager to join with you [Biden] to repair the damage done to our country,” the filmmaker wrote, “and to eliminate that about our society and our politics which gave us Donald Trump in the first place.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-11-12--Best Way For Republicans To Fundraise Is ‘Just Let Nancy Pelosi And AOC Talk,’ McCarthy Says

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy ( R-CA ) spoke out this week to say that the best fundraisers for the Republican Party may actually be House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi ( D-CA ) and the self-proclaimed Democratic Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ( D-NY ) .
Pelosi And AOC Are Becoming GOP ’ s Secret Weapons “ The best way to raise money is just let Nancy Pelosi and AOC [ Ocasio-Cortez ] talk , ” McCarthy said during an Axios interview on HBO about the record-breaking $ 103 million he raised throughout this election .
When asked why conservatives respond @ @ @ @ @ @ @ McCarthy explained that she symbolizes the radical shift that is happening within the Democratic Party .
“ She runs the floor , ” the Republican lawmaker said .
“ That wing of the party , the socialist wing of the party , they are the new power of the Democratic party.
” When asked if Ocasio-Cortez is now more of a force than Pelosi , McCarthy did not hesitate to reply , “ By far , by far .
You watched on the floor .
Legislation couldn ’ t be passed unless AOC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Refuses To Say If She ’ ll Support Pelosi For Speaker This comes after Fox News reported that Pelosi acknowledged the rift between the moderate and progressive sides of the Democratic Party .
However , she then refused multiple requests to specifically denounce socialism , something that Sen. Lindsey Graham ( D-SC ) pointed out should not be very hard to do .
“ How hard is it to renounce socialism if you really don ’ t believe in it ?
” Graham tweeted .
“ The reason she can ’ t renounce @ @ @ @ @ @ @ party — deep in their soul — backs socialism.
” RELATED : Could the ‘ Squad ’ Replace Nancy Pelosi As Speaker After The GOP Flips Several House Seats ?
After moderate Democrats blamed progressives for their shrinking majority in the House , Ocasio-Cortez fired back by blasting the entire party .
She complained to the New York Times that she and her fellow progressives are not treated well within the Democratic Party .
“ The last two years have been pretty hostile , ” she lamented .
“ Externally , we ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s been a ton of support , but internally , it ’ s been extremely hostile to anything that even smells progressive.
” Ocasio-Cortez and Pelosi have had public disagreements with one another in the past .
If they keep this infighting up , perhaps they could end up being Republicans ’ secret weapons after all .

thepoliticalinsider--2020-11-13--BLM Wants Joe and Kamala To Pay Up, Eh? This Should Be Fun To Watch

The co-founder of Black Lives Matter , Patrisse Cullors , wants to be paid for allegedly helping to get the Democrats back in the White House .
I wonder how that is going to play out , eh ?
Cullors want a payment on a bill that might come back with insufficient funds if the election is overturned .
And get this .
Joe Biden isn ’ t that good in paying back anyone , anyway .
I have been involved with politics for 20 plus years now , and I ’ ve never seen where Biden has done anything @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bill .
That didn ’ t do anything good for us .
READ : Report : Biden ’ s Team Worried a ‘ MAGA Rally ’ Will Break Out At The Inauguration I don ’ t know much about Kamala Harris , but the people I know that live in her district don ’ t like her .
As far as any president goes , what do you think the one person is capable of doing ?
Biden isn ’ t going to get anything done because he really doesn ’ t want @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trying ; he ’ s 78 , wants to say he finally did it .
Biden will never be able to pay back all the commitments he ’ s made ; he ’ ll not have the votes within his own party and will have to use executive actions that will be challenged in court .
This is what happens when you can ’ t state your positions before the elections .
BLACK VOTERS DID BETTER UNDER TRUMP The African American community did much better with President Trump , as Trump understands how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doesn ’ t .
Trump ’ s policies have helped the minority communities , and they know it .
Biden and the Democrats have ignored the minority communities for many decades .
The Republican Party will welcome many more folks as a result , and that ’ s a perfect thing .
Biden won ’ t give them anything more than they got under Obama .
The problem is that they don ’ t realize that Trump actually was trying to do things to help the black community , not just say he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Group For President Trump ’ Is Accosted By Knife-Wielding Man – Have Eggs Thrown At Them Biden is empty promises , and by 2024 , nothing will have changed for minorities , and the black vote will still be 85 % + for the Democrats because they keep falling for the lies .
If you claim to be the party for oppressed minorities , then there have to be oppressed minorities to vote for you ; otherwise , you have to pivot , and the Dems have never pivoted and don ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ minorities that they are victims and can ’ t get to a better situation than they are currently in without the Democrats ’ help .
HAVE YOU GOT THE PICTURE YET ?
Do you understand what is really going on here ?
The Washington establishment , better known as “ the deep state , ” aka the Cabal , aka Washington Bureaucracy , aka The Club , consists of a mix of predominantly liberal Democrats and several Republicans .
These unelected officials in government today are descendants of those that held positions in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Washington establishment is a monarchy , not in the traditional sense , but very much in structure .
Donald Trump threatened the establishment .
He threatened to “ drain the swamp.
” For this reason and this reason only he had to go , by any means necessary .
The establishment elite sold their souls to the devil to make this happen ; however , that sale was based on credit .
You see , what the radicals are about to find out is they were used by the establishment to get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ care nothing about climate change , abortion , LGBT rights and surely care nothing about minorities and the poor .
They care about power .
The establishment elites are behind this hand recount in Georgia .
It ’ s not because of Trump/Biden .
It ’ s to help David Perdue avoid a runoff against Jon Ossoff so the Republicans can retain the Senate .
With Trump gone , the Washington establishment is preserved and back in control .
Ironically , the deep state desperately needs Republicans to retain the Senate to restore @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Washington DC .

Of course not .

Black Voters Did Better Under Trump
The African American community did much better with President Trump, as Trump understands how to grow an economy, and Biden doesn’t. Trump’s policies have helped the minority communities, and they know it. Biden and the Democrats have ignored the minority communities for many decades. The Republican Party will welcome many more folks as a result, and that’s a good thing.
Biden won’t give them anything more than they got under Obama. The problem is that they don’t realize that Trump actually was trying to do things to help the black community, not just say he was.

If you claim to be the party for oppressed minorities, then there have to be oppressed minorities to vote for you; otherwise, you have to pivot, and the Dems have never pivoted and don’t need to as long as they convince minorities that they are victims and can’t get to a better situation than the one they are currently in without the Democrats’ help.
It’s sad but very predictable.

Have You Got The Picture Yet?
Do you understand what is really going on here? The Washington establishment, better known as “the deep state,” aka the Cabal, aka Washington Bureaucracy, aka The Club, consists of a mix of predominantly liberal Democrats and several Republicans.
These unelected officials in government today are descendants of those that held positions in the Washington Bureaucracy going back generations. The Washington establishment is a monarchy, not in the traditional sense, but very much in structure.
Donald Trump threatened the establishment. He threatened to “drain the swamp.” For this reason and this reason only he had to go, by any means necessary. The establishment elite sold their souls to the devil to make this happen; however, that sale was based on credit. You see, what the radicals are about to find out is they were used by the establishment to get rid of Trump.
The establishment elites care nothing about climate change, abortion, LGBT rights and surely care nothing about minorities and the poor. They care about power. The establishment elites are behind this hand recount in Georgia. It’s not because of Trump/Biden. It’s to help David Perdue avoid a runoff against Jon Ossoff so the Republicans can retain the Senate.
With Trump gone, the Washington establishment is preserved and back in control. Ironically, the deep state desperately needs Republicans to retain the Senate to restore order to their newly established control of Washington DC.

BLM Won’t Get Anything, Now Or Ever
BLM is simply one in a long line demanding payment for their influence. Who will be next, Soros? MSM? Zuckerberg? Dorsey? Does anyone at all believe Joe is capable of standing up to them? Of course not.
Joe welcomed the influence and will show his appreciation by giving them what they want. The corruption in the Obama administration will pale compared to what the future holds if Biden assumes the presidency.
But, I am very interested in what Biden does with this if he becomes President. If you are confused about what BLM stands for, go to their homepage, sanitized, to see they want to take this country apart.
Before sanitizing their page, they were against the traditional family. Check the statistics on families that do not have a mother and father in the house, and you will realize where the BLM wants this country to go. Meeting with Cullors will make them more legitimate. Big mistake? Big!

“ I feel really happy and relieved , very grateful , excited about the team of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris , looking forward to seeing them take the office of president and vice president and bring our country together and get us back on the right track for the future.

“I am feeling better than I have felt in four years,” Clinton said, according to CBS News. “I feel really happy and relieved, very grateful, excited about the team of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, looking forward to seeing them take the office of president and vice president and bring our country together and get us back on the right track for the future.”
Someone should remind Clinton that even if Biden is the actual winner of this election, it won’t change the fact that Trump still beat her handily in 2016.

Clinton Was Quick To Call Election For Biden
Clinton was quick to celebrate Biden’s alleged win as soon as media outlets began to call it last Saturday, calling it a “repudiation” of the Trump presidency.
“The voters have spoken, and they have chosen @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris to be our next president and vice president,” Clinton tweeted. “It’s a history-making ticket, a repudiation of Trump, and a new page for America. Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen. Onward, together.”

Despite Clinton’s comments, Trump is still not giving up, as he is taking lawsuits in various state to court in the hopes of exposing mass voter fraud.
“The simple fact is this election is far from over,” Trump said over the weekend. “Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor.”

Granting the president-elect access to daily intelligence briefings is a part of the normal transition process. But then, we aren’t operating during a normal election year.
“There is no loss from him getting the briefings and to be able to do that,” Lankford counters.
“If that’s not occurring by Friday I will step in as well, and to be able to push and to say this needs to occur so that, regardless of the outcome of the election … people can be ready for that actual task,” he continued.
Lankford, meanwhile, has defended the President’s right to pursue litigation to resolve the contested election.
“President [Trump] is fully in his right to ask for recounts and for every legal question to be fully vetted and resolved,” he tweeted.
“It is important for the 71 million Americans that voted for President Trump that at the end of all this their questions are answered.”
