Twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has called Michigan anti-shutdown protesters “domestic terrorists” for practicing their Second Amendment right to be armed.
In a Friday tweet, the former First Lady linked to a Newsweek article about the protesters and said that “it cannot be tolerated.”
“Armed men storming a legislature to disrupt its democratic proceedings is domestic terrorism. It cannot be tolerated,” Clinton wrote.
Armed men storming a legislature to disrupt its democratic proceedings is domestic terrorism. It cannot be tolerated.https://t.co/NcCFgA5COE — Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) May 15, 2020
The article Clinton linked to was about how Michigan closed their capitol building and cancelled a legislative session after Governor Gretchen Whitmer claimed to receive death threats online.
The threats were allegedly made in a Facebook group for a “Judgement Day” protest at the capitol in protest of the governor’s strict stay-at-home orders. Posts in the group reportedly referred to her as a “Nazi,” “Spawn of the Devil,” “Soros puppet,” and “baby killer tyrant.”
Obviously, the online threats could have came from anyone, but they heavily implied it was connected to the protesters.

President Trump has chosen a former pharmaceutical executive and a four star general to run Operation Warp Speed , an effort to speed up development of a vaccine for COVID-19 and get it to as many Americans as quickly as possible .
“ I think we ’ re going to have a vaccine by the end of the year , and I think distribution will take place almost simultaneously because we ’ ve geared up the military , ” President Trump said as he prepared to board Marine One on Thursday afternoon @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scenario for vaccine development would be 12 to 18 months .
It ’ s not clear exactly what he means by gearing up the military , but Trump could be referencing the addition of General Gustave Perna to the Operation Warp Speed team .
Perna is commander of the U.S. Army Materiel Command and , according to two administration officials , will be the chief operating officer of the program .
Former GlaxoSmithKline executive Moncef Slaoui has been named chief adviser to the effort .
He held numerous roles at the company over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ global vaccines .
Since his retirement , Slaoui has served on pharmaceutical and health tech company boards , including Moderna , the company whose vaccine Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Institutes of Health has described as promising .
Among numerous candidates , that vaccine is the furthest along in development , entering a phase 2 trial .

Well, this sounds scary as sh*t!
The Trump White House today announced plans for the Department of Health and the Department of Defense to team up and deliver a vaccine for the coronavirus.
At least 14% of adults will refuse this vaccine. What will they do then?
General Gustave Perna excitedly announced the partnership today.
The only reason this team was announced is because Dr. Fauci, who has been wrong on everything, moved the goalposts and pushed for a vaccine on this flu-like disease.
It went from “flatten the curve” to “find the cure”. From “social distancing” to “house arrest”. From “2 weeks” to “3 months”. From “we’re in it together” to “snitch on you neighbors”. From “individual liberty” to “comply or pay fine”. We lost the target. And government knows it. — Viva Frei (@thevivafrei) May 15, 2020

Judicial conduct similar to J. Sullivan ’ s in these prior , far less politically charged cases was roundly and unanimously condemned by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg , D.C .
Circuit Judge Sri Srinivasan , and their colleagues across the ideological spectrum .

One week ago , the U.S. Supreme Court issued a 9-0 decision , authored by Justice Ginsburg , that took judges to task for similar amicus antics .

In a document sent to Pompeo , Jordan wrote : TRENDING : REVEALED : By Refusing DOJ Decision to Drop Flynn Case Judge Sullivan Ignored UNANIMOUS Supreme Court Decision from LAST WEEK !
“ I write regarding documents that the State Department recently released pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act ( FOIA ) , ” stated Jordan , in a letter to Pompeo on Thursday .
“ Although these documents are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new light on the actions of State Department employees during the Obama-Biden Administration in relation to the corrupt Ukrainian energy company , Burisma Holdings , and its founder , Mykola Zlochevsky.

Representative Jim Jordan requested the US State Department under Mike Pompeo to turn over documents related to Obama Deep State employee Eric Ciaramella and Ukrainian firm Burisma.
Sara Carter reported overnight:
Republicans are demanding that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo turn over a broad scope of unredacted Obama-Biden State Department documents pertaining to the corrupt Ukrainian company that was at the center of the impeachment inquiry earlier this year against President Donald Trump.
In a document sent to Pompeo, Jordan wrote:
“I write regarding documents that the State Department recently released pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA),” stated Jordan, in a letter to Pompeo on Thursday. “Although these documents are partially redacted, they appear to shed new light on the actions of State Department employees during the Obama-Biden Administration in relation to the corrupt Ukrainian energy company, Burisma Holdings, and its founder, Mykola Zlochevsky.” Jordan requested that the information be delivered to the committee by May 28. He asked for: Unredacted copies of all documents released pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act relating to Burisma Holdings, Mykola Zlochevsky, or Hunter Biden;
