Former “ Charmed ” star-turned- # MeToo activist Rose McGowan spoke out to blast The Washington Post yesterday after the news source published a story that was critical of Tara Reade , who has accused Joe Biden of sexual assault .
The Washington Post reportedly tried to cast doubt over Reade ’ s claim in their story , noting that while she now claims that Biden pinned her against a wall and penetrated her with his fingers , she had previously said last year that he only touched her neck and shoulders .
The Daily Wire reported that The Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by noting : That she had become a vocal supporter of Biden ’ s chief rival for the Democratic nomination , Senator Bernie Sanders ; that the Post “ found no other allegations against him as serious as Reade ’ s ” ; that Reade had filed a police complaint last Thursday but had not named Biden ; that Reade had claimed she had informed a therapist about the alleged assault but had not come forth with the therapist ’ s notes when the Post asked for them , and that although Reade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ complaint with a congressional human resources or personnel office , she could not currently remember the exact name of the office and “ the Post could find no record of the complaint , and Reade said she never received a copy.
” McGowan was infuriated by this clear attempt to invalidate Reade ’ s story “ This is not journalism , this is an agenda .
This is a hit piece , ” McGowan wrote .
“ You ’ ve sunk to a new low in slanted journalism and victim shaming @ Washington @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has handled the allegations against Biden is starkly different to the way they treated the sexual assault claims made by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2018 .
“ Just as we treat Kavanaugh with respect when referring to him , we should afford Ford the same respect .
She , like Kavanaugh , needs to be seen to be fairly heard , ” The Post stated at the time .
The Post even later ran a story titled , “ Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford moved 3,000 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wasn ’ t far enough.
” We ’ re glad to see that McGowan is not afraid to call out the mainstream media for their hypocrisy , which is glaringly obvious now more than ever .
They only wanted to “ believe all women ” when a conservative was being accused , but all of that is being thrown out the window now that their beloved liberal candidate of choice is under fire .
We need more people in Hollywood to have the courage to call out the biased media , just as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way too far , and the media needs to be held accountable for what they are doing .

The Washington Post reportedly tried to cast doubt over Reade’s claim in their story, noting that while she now claims that Biden pinned her against a wall and penetrated her with his fingers, she had previously said last year that he only touched her neck and shoulders. The Daily Wire reported that The Washington Post also attacked Reade’s claims by noting:
That she had become a vocal supporter of Biden’s chief rival for the Democratic nomination, Senator Bernie Sanders; that the Post “found no other allegations against him as serious as Reade’s”; that Reade had filed a police complaint last Thursday but had not named Biden; that Reade had claimed she had informed a therapist about the alleged assault but had not come forth with the therapist’s notes when the Post asked for them, and that although Reade said that in 1993 she filed a complaint with a congressional human resources or personnel office, she could not currently remember the exact name of the office and “the Post could find no record of the complaint, and Reade said she never received a copy.”
McGowan was infuriated by this clear attempt to invalidate Reade’s story “This is not journalism, this is an agenda. This is a hit piece,” McGowan wrote. “You’ve sunk to a new low in slanted journalism and victim shaming @Washington Post.”

Bongino Warns of Civil Unrest If Government Continues To Rob Americans Of Freedom Over Coronavirus Crisis

Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino warned that Americans could rise up if federal and state governments continue to strip them of their freedom in response to the coronavirus pandemic .

“ Besides being counterproductive , indefinite sheltering orders will eventually lead to civil disobedience.

” “ Better – for reasons of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ treat Americans as responsible citizens , ” they continued .
Power-hungry lawmakers are using the coronavirus and its associated fears as a means to – at least temporarily – rip freedom out from under the people .

In a signal that any era of good feelings is over between opposition governors and President Donald Trump , on Monday Democrat governors in New York , New Jersey , Connecticut , Pennsylvania , Rhode Island , and Delaware announced a program that would usurp the federal role in reopening the nation to business and normalcy .
As soon as President Trump talked about a task force that would plan the reopening and tweeted about his predominant role in the process , the Democrats pounced .
This sets up a power struggle to determine who gets to decide the timing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government or state governments ?
Said New York Governor Andrew Cuomo at a press conference on Monday : “ We should start looking forward to ‘ reopening , ’ but reopening with a plan and a smart plan because if you do it wrong , it can backfire .
What the art form is going to be here is doing that smartly and doing that productively and doing that in a coordinated way—in coordination with other states in the area and doing it as a cooperative effort where we learn from each other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , where we share intelligence.
” At the same conference he called President Trump “ vicious.
” New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said the coronavirus effort was “ the fight of our lives , ” also saying that “ reopening ourselves back up will be equally as challenging.
” Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont said the states are working at “ establishing the same protocols ” due to residents in the tri-state area traveling to and from New York City for work .
Delaware Governor John Carney said , “ This will help us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to re-enter and to get our economies moving again.
” Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo said she is planning “ the new normal , ” and that the strategy must be “ a smart , targeted approach to slowly reopen the economy in a way that keeps everybody…safe.
” Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf said , “ You have to get people healthy first or the economy is not going to work .
It ’ s our responsibility to steer our way through these unchartered waters , and figure out a way back.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ naked power grab by Democrat governors against the president .
They know voters will give credit to whomever reopens the economy and returns some conventional way of life to America .
The Democrats want that credit and they are willing to endanger the reopening of the nation by making it a partisan political football rather than letting the federal government take the lead on a question that affects the whole nation .

In a signal that any era of good feelings is over between opposition governors and President Donald Trump, on Monday Democrat governors in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Delaware announced a program that would usurp the federal role in reopening the nation to business and normalcy.
As soon as President Trump talked about a task force that would plan the reopening and tweeted about his predominant role in the process, the Democrats pounced. This sets up a power struggle to determine who gets to decide the timing and the implementation of the reopening—the federal government or state governments?
Said New York Governor Andrew Cuomo at a press conference on Monday: “We should start looking forward to ‘reopening,’ but reopening with a plan and a smart plan because if you do it wrong, it can backfire. What the art form is going to be here is doing that smartly and doing that productively and doing that in a coordinated way—in coordination with other states in the area and doing it as a cooperative effort where we learn from each other where we share information, share resources, where we share intelligence.” At the same conference he called President Trump “vicious.”
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said the coronavirus effort was “the fight of our lives,” also saying that “reopening ourselves back up will be equally as challenging.”
Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont said the states are working at “establishing the same protocols” due to residents in the tri-state area traveling to and from New York City for work.
Delaware Governor John Carney said, “This will help us as we think through what it takes to re-enter and to get our economies moving again.”
Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo said she is planning “the new normal,” and that the strategy must be “a smart, targeted approach to slowly reopen the economy in a way that keeps everybody…safe.”
Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf said, “You have to get people healthy first or the economy is not going to work. It’s our responsibility to steer our way through these unchartered waters, and figure out a way back.”
These words are weak covers for a naked power grab by Democrat governors against the president. They know voters will give credit to whomever reopens the economy and returns some conventional way of life to America. The Democrats want that credit and they are willing to endanger the reopening of the nation by making it a partisan political football rather than letting the federal government take the lead on a question that affects the whole nation.

Democratic socialist Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont formally endorsed Joe Biden for the presidency today , ending speculation that he would wait until the August convention in Milwaukee to do so .
But nothing in politics comes without a price .
So what did Biden pay to get this endorsement ?

It puts Senator Kamala Harris of California and Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If Michigan Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer keeps loudly attacking the president her stock will rise as well with the hard left .
The deal also probably gave anti-American socialists like AOC , Omar , and Tlaib control over the Democratic platform .

Last week, President Trump taunted Biden by suggesting Ocasio-Cortez and other Squad members would not support the presumptive nominee’s presidential campaign.
“Can’t see AOC plus 3 supporting Sleepy Joe!” he wrote.
Can’t see AOC plus 3 supporting Sleepy Joe! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 8, 2020
The reality, however, is this: AOC, Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), along with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) – they don’t concern themselves with the well-being of the country. Their sole platform right now is pure, unadulterated hatred for the President.
Ocasio-Cortez confirmed as much during the interview.
“Beating Donald Trump is a matter of life or death for our communities,” she fretted later adding, “I don’t want another term of Trump.”
She will support Biden. And Biden will cater to her extremism thinking it’s the only way to beat Trump.
When all is said and done, conservatives will be celebrating another four years of ‘Keeping America Great.’
