After being brutalized and humiliated by civic authorities, and being pushed to the ground as a crowd watched, this innocent man was killed ultimately by asphyxiation, not by a loss of blood, and in his final moments, he cried out for a drink of water and spoke to his mother. pic.twitter.com/3BT2s3xg5B — James Martin, SJ (@JamesMartinSJ) June 1, 2020
Martin, who was appointed by Pope Francis as the consultant to the Vatican’s Secretariat for Communications in 2017, has been posting virtue-signaling tweets as mobs ravage the streets of America.
Racism is a sin. White supremacy is a scourge on the nation. And we must listen to the Holy Spirit working through the voices of our African-American brothers and sisters. https://t.co/rPcW9aLlIc — James Martin, SJ (@JamesMartinSJ) June 2, 2020
Today is Feast of Mary, Mother of the Church, and today's Gospel reading is Mary, standing under the Cross, grieving for her son. If you weep over that image, but not for the African American parents who grieve for their brutalized and murdered children, you're missing the point. pic.twitter.com/vRRrzfhOtj — James Martin, SJ (@JamesMartinSJ) June 1, 2020
If you weep over the death of Jesus, who had a cross pressed down upon him and cried out "I thirst," but don't weep over the death of #GeorgeFloyd, who had a knee pressed down upon him and cried out, "Water," how will you be able to hear the Holy Spirit? — James Martin, SJ (@JamesMartinSJ) May 31, 2020
Martin was particularly disdainful toward President Trump for holding the bible at the scene of a historic church that the mob attempted to burn down. He made no post admonishing the thugs who tried to burn down the church, however.
Let me be clear. This is revolting. The Bible is not a prop. A church is not a photo op. Religion is not a political tool. God is not your plaything. pic.twitter.com/RZwPeqrwoZ — James Martin, SJ (@JamesMartinSJ) June 2, 2020
It has come out in recent days that Floyd was high on drugs, including fentanyl and possibly methamphetamine, during his encounter with police that turned tragic:
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner has announced that George Floyd, whose death during an encounter with Minneapolis police has set off nationwide riots, had fentanyl in his system during his passing with the cause of death being a heart attack. The medical examiner claims that Floyd suffered “a cardiopulmonary arrest while being restrained by law enforcement.” In addition, the report claims that Floyd had used methamphetamine recently in addition to the fentanyl. They listed his cause of death as a homicide. This comes shortly after the news that another medical examiner, brought onto the case by Floyd’s family attorney Benjamin Clump, determined that Floyd died from asphyxia. Forensic specialist Dr. Michael Baden determined that Floyd was dead for several minutes as he was being restrained with a knee to the back of the neck by former law enforcement officer Derek Chauvin, who is being charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter. “The ambulance was the hearse,” Crump said at the press conference on Monday as the findings were announced. Baden made the case that Floyd was in good health, and the asphyxia was caused solely by Chauvin’s actions. He also determined that the handcuffs and positioning of Floyd on the ground did not allow his diaphragm to function properly, which exacerbated the asphyxia.
Floyd also had an extensive violent criminal record going back decades. The Daily Mail noted that he “had at least five stints in jail” and “had been sentenced to five years in prison in 2009 for aggravated assault stemming from a robbery where Floyd entered a woman’s home, pointed a gun at her stomach and searched the home for drugs and money, according to court records.”
“[Floyd] then proceeded to search the residence while another armed suspect guarded the complainant, who was struck in the head and sides by this second armed suspect with his pistol while she screamed for help,” the report detailing Floyd’s violent gang assault against a woman states.

ANTIFA Boy Surrendered by Mommy and Daddy to Pittsbugh Police for Allegedly Inciting a Riot
20-year-old Jordan Bartels was surrendered to authorities in Pittsburgh on Monday by his mommy and daddy for allegedly starting a riot during weekend protests regarding George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis, Minn.
Bartels is accused of smashing out the windows of a cop car “against the wishes of peaceful protesters who tried to stop him,” according to law enforcement officials.
CBS Pittsburgh noted in a Sunday report that social media users identified the young man, who is reportedly an Amazon employee, and police were hunting for him:
Law enforcement served a search warrant at Bartels’ home on Sunday where they found evidence “including 2 firearms, books, gloves, cans of spray paint, indica, and a sweatshirt with white writing on the front was found on top of the dryer in the laundry room,” according to a WPXI report.
His parents can be seen surrendering Bartels to authorities in this video:

North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper held a press briefing on May 31 to address the death of George Floyd and the subsequent lootings that have spread into North Carolina.
In a tweet storm, Cooper effectively endorsed rioting.
He started off by tweeting, “I’m here today to talk about the call being sounded right now across our state and country to stamp out the persistent and ugly flames of racism.

Let me be clear about one thing: People are more important than property. Black Lives do Matter. — Governor Roy Cooper (@NC_Governor) May 31, 2020
Cooper is of the opinion that “These scars mark generations of trauma that black people and other communities of color continue to suffer. Trauma that has too often gone unrecognized in our country.”

The Governor tried to shift discussion by claiming that people are focusing too much on the riots as opposed to the protests, which he noted:
Unfortunately, today the headlines are not about those protestors and their calls for serious, meaningful change. They are more about riots, and tear gas, and broken windows, and stolen property. I fear the cry of the people is being drowned out by the noise of riots.
Then Cooper revealed his true colors in one of his most damning tweets.
He resolutely stated, “Let me be clear about one thing: People are more important than property. Black Lives do Matter.”

bigleaguepolitics--2020-06-03--President Donald Trump Will Move the 2020 Republican Convention Out of North Carolina

Rep. Ilhan Omar ( D-MN ) has stated publicly that she believes Tara Reade , a former staffer for presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden who has alleged he sexually assaulted her , but will vote for Biden despite the fact that she thinks he is a predator .
“ Believing survivors is consistent with my values .
Yes , I endorsed against Biden and I didn ’ t pick him as our nominee .
With that said , in this interview I did on May 6th , we talked about that and quotes aren ’ t always in context @ @ @ @ @ @ @ help him defeat Trump , ” Omar wrote in a tweet attempting to express solidarity for Reade while shilling for Biden .
“ We can ’ t fend off perceived attacks with attacks on others .

That ’ s the goal we should all be united on , ” Omar wrote in a subsequent Twitter post .

It is troubling , I do believe Tara Reade , I believe it ’ s important for us to give space for women to come forward and share their stories .

Justice can be delayed but it should never be denied , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over the candidate ] were something I had influence over , just candidly here , we ’ d probably have a different candidate , ” she added – making it clear that Biden is not a candidate she finds particularly desirable .
Fellow “ Squad ” member Rep. Ayanna Pressley ( D-MA ) expressed a similar opinion that she would vote for a man she believes committed sexual assault because of her hatred for Trump .
“ I reject the false choice that my party and our nominee can ’ t address the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the White House , ” Pressley wrote .
Reade has come forward in recent weeks to accuse Biden of victimizing her in 1993 when he was a Senator and she worked under him : Tara Reade , a former staffer for Joe Biden while he was serving in the Senate , filed a criminal complaint in Washington D.C. against her former boss on Saturday alleging he sexually assaulted her in 1993 .
Reade attests that Biden “ assaulted her in a Senate corridor , shoving his hand under her skirt and penetrating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has reported that the “ statute of limitations for the alleged assault has passed , ” but this troublesome news is not expected to help Biden ’ s presidential chances .
Reade spoke her truth to writer Katie Halper when she appeared on her podcast last month .
Reade claims that she has been trying to get justice for years but her story has mostly fallen on deaf ears due to Biden being protected .
“ We were alone , and it was the strangest thing , ” Reade said to Halper .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ exchange really , he just had me up against the wall .
His hands were on me and underneath my clothes .
And then , he went , he went down my skirt and then up inside it , and he penetrated me with his fingers…and um…He was kissing me at the same time and he was saying something to me.
” “ He got finished doing what he was doing and I , how I was pulled back and he said , ‘ Come on man , I heard you liked me.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ because I kept thinking what I might have said , ” she continued .
“ And I can ’ t remember exactly if he said ‘ I thought ’ or if ‘ I heard.
’ It ’ s like he implied that I had done this.
” Reade ’ s allegations are yet to be proven by hard evidence , but this situation has certainly exposed the incredible hypocrisy of Democrats when it comes to the # MeToo movement and sexual assault claims .

President Donald Trump Will Move the 2020 Republican Convention Out of North Carolina
President Donald Trump confirmed that he will move the 2020 Republican Convention away from Charlotte, North Carolina in a series of tweets Tuesday night. The state’s Democratic governor, Roy Cooper, had refused to allow the Republican Party to conduct the event at full capacity, citing supposedly necessary coronavirus social distancing restrictions.
The event was slated to be held in late August, well after the apex of the national coronavirus epidemic. Cooper still refused to allow the Republican Party to proceed with its plans to hold a full-sized major party political convention.
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1267985989471002626
The loss of the Republican convention is set to cost North Carolina millions of dollars in revenue for the state’s economy. Major party conventions are regularly sought by governors and mayors, but it appears that Cooper’s desire to restrict the GOP convention overrode his desire for the benefits of the event.
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1267985990465064962
The President had earlier been threatening to move the convention if North Carolina failed to give the Republican Party the green light to proceed in organizing for its convention as planned.
Sources indicate that GOP officials are already scouting out potential alternative locations for the party’s convention. Early reports suggest that either Arizona or Florida could be selected as possible replacement locations for the event, with both states set to be competitive electoral battlegrounds in the fall presidential election.
Arizona Republican Debbie Lesko called for the RNC to move the convention to her Glendale-area district, and Arizona Governor Doug Ducey has suggested that the state would be willing to welcome the President and Republicans across the country for the crucial political event.

Pipe bombs are crude explosive devices that can be utilized as grenades. They’re easy to manufacture in clandestine laboratories, and have been used by some of the world’s more notorious terrorist groups in acts of political violence.
ANTIFA and race riot protestors are said to be congregating outside of the Lincoln Memorial as they prepare to continue the nightly riots in Washington D.C. An elevated National Guard presence was seen on hand at the memorial, incensing liberals who simply want the demonstrably criminal and violent rioters to be treated with kid gloves despite their proven track record of criminality and aggression.

A truck driver who drove onto the I-35W Bridge in Minneapolis, Minn. and narrowly avoided hitting rioters was released from jail without being charged with any crime on Tuesday.
Prosecutors in Hennepin County claim they are still investigating, and 35-year-old Bogdan Vechirko of Otsego may face charges in the future, but as of right now, he is a free man.
“Investigators are in the process of gathering additional information and answers to aid in the charging decision,” County Attorney Mike Freeman said in a statement on Tuesday.
Art Loghinov, a relative of Vechirko, spoke with him and told his side of the harrowing incident that could have resulted in Vechirko being beaten senseless by the mob if he hadn’t driven through them.
Loghinov was adamant that the situation was “not his fault. … He didn’t have any intent to harm or do anything bad to anybody.”
State Public Safety Commissioner John Harrington said on Monday that Vechirko “panicked, and he just kept barreling forward” but did not drive through any barriers meant to protect protesters and ultimately hit nobody. He is still talking with Freeman about the possibility of charging Vechirko with crimes.
“We just want to make sure, even though no one was killed … we are certainly getting to the right charge that holds him accountable for the behaviors,” Harrington said.
Vechirko’s significant other, Liudmila, who is eight months pregnant, is pleading for assistance during Loghinov’s ordeal. She recorded a video claiming that “our credit cards are frozen since they stole his wallet, phone and all the belongings in the truck’s cabin.”
“Due to multiple requests, I am recording this video for those who care and want to help our family,” Vechirko said as translated from Russian, advertising a PayPal e-mail address that individuals could send donations toward to keep the family afloat.
Loghinov said the family is “very thankful for the people who came to rescue him and very grateful for the police,” who prevented the mob from beating Vechirko senseless after his truck finally came to a stop.
“They are not a rich family,” Loghinov said. “He is a hard worker and the only one bringing money to the family.”
Vechirko is a Russian immigrant who was just trying to make ends meet when he came into contact with the mob. Now, his life may never be the same due to his encounter with the savages in the streets.
“He’s a nice, friendly guy,” Loghinov said. “He was just going home.”
More decent, hard-working individuals will have their lives ruined by the left-wing mob before these continuous riots are said and done.

The CIAC policy started to yield troubling results when two biological males who identified as girls began dominating girls’ track meets. This policy is less stringent than the NCAA’s transgender policy, which mandates males to take testosterone-suppressing hormones for at least a year before participating in female sports competitions.
Three school districts violated Title IX by also participating in CIAC athletic events. “Glastonbury, Canton, and Danbury placed female student-athletes in athletic events against male student-athletes, resulting in competitive disadvantages for female student-athletes,” federal officials stated.
They added:
The athletic events in which the female student-athletes competed were coeducational; female student-athletes were denied the opportunity to compete in events that were exclusively female, whereas male student-athletes were able to compete in events that were exclusively male.
On top of that, three other districts – Hartford, Bloomfield and Cromwell – violated Title IX by allowing two biological males, Terry Miller and Andraya Yearwood, compete on female teams per CIAC policy. According to the OCR, the conference and six districts “treated student-athletes differently based on sex.”
According to Greg Piper of the College Fix, “The letter uses pseudonyms for the students but all have been previously named. The girls filed a related lawsuit in February under their real names: Alanna Smith, Chelsea Mitchell and Selina Soule.”

At the moment, OCR will either “initiate administrative proceedings” to block federal funding for the conference and districts or hand the cases over to the Justice Department in order for it to enforce federal law.

This is a solid victory which should be built upon by the Trump administration and members of Congress.


bigleaguepolitics--2020-06-03--U.S. Senators Unveil Plan to End China’s Exploitation of the U.S.’s Migration System

Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton and Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn are teaming up to end China ’ s exploitation of the U.S. migration system .
John Binder of Breitbart News reported that “ In the wake of the Chinese coronavirus crisis , Cotton and Blackburn — as well as Rep. David Kustoff ( R-TN ) in the House — have filed legislation called the SECURE CAMPUS Act that ends the China-to-United States pipeline of Chinese nationals receiving student visas for STEM fields.

Require China’s foreign talent recruitment program participants to register as foreign agents
Require the State Department to publish a list of China’s foreign talent recruitment programs
Blackburn said the following in a statement:
Beijing exploits student and research visas to steal science, technology, engineering, and manufacturing secrets from U.S. academic and research institutions. We’ve fed China’s innovation drought with American ingenuity and taxpayer dollars for too long; it’s time to secure the U.S. research enterprise against [China’s] economic espionage.
Breitbart News previously noted that China greatly benefits from the U.S.’s legal migration system.
Binder offered some sobering numbers about mass Chinese legal migration:
From 2008 to 2018, more than 825,000 Chinese nationals arrived in the U.S. on green cards — an immigration status that provides them with permanent residency, a pathway to American citizenship, and eventually the ability to bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the country through the process known as “chain migration.”
In any given year, there are approximately 500,000 Chinese students in America, which is more than any other country. They usually take spots in university classrooms and work to receive Optional Practical Training (OPT) in order to displace entry-level white-collar workers.
Binder concluded that “In Fiscal Year 2019, alone, Chinese nationals secured about 170,000 F, J, and M visas to arrive in the U.S. as students — more than any other country in the world.”
China’s exploitation of America’s legal migration is in line with its unconventional strategies to expand its influence abroad.
It’s banking on not having to fire a shot in its quest to become the world’s pre-imminent superpower. By infiltrating countries, conducting espionage, buying up property, and dispossessing native workers, China is doing everything it takes to gain an advantage against the West and its allies.
In doing so, it can establish a formal foothold in the U.S. and other countries, whereby it can exercise soft power.
