bigleaguepolitics--2020-03-17--Purported USDA Official Threatens to Deny Food to Man Talking about Constitutional Rights

An alleged USDA official has threatened a man for talking about his Constitutional rights in a social media post on Tuesday .
Robert Caruso , a man who listed himself as a USDA employee on Twitter and formerly worked for the Federal Reserve and Department of Defense , picked a fight with pro-Constitution advocate Marc Randazza .
take our poll - story continues below The exchange grew more personal from there , and Caruso had the audacity to imply that Randazza would be denied food rations in a crisis for airing his constitutional opinions publicly .
Caruso may not even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , considering his long and documented history as a grifter going back many years .
Which brings us to the strange case of Robert Caruso , a young , intense , and charismatic wannabe warmaker .
He touts an impressive résumé for a 31-year-old : Per his bio at the Guardian and elsewhere , Caruso shops himself as a Navy veteran who “ served in the Office of the Secretary of Defense ” and “ in the Bureau of Diplomatic Security at the Department of State and as a contractor for the Department @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lists himself on LinkedIn as a “ political consultant ” and a “ Fellow ” with Hillary Clinton ’ s campaign .
He ’ s a longtime and prolific member of natsec Twitter , well-liked and oft-cited by both “ no-fly-zones-can-work ” liberals and “ let ’ s-nuke-China ” conservatives… Unfortunately for the readers who get jazzed by this kind of stuff , there ’ s a problem with Caruso ’ s wunderkind image : His résumé is , at best , exaggerated .
He ’ s not the well-connected operator he presents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a frothing parody of a Russia-obsessed centrist national security grifter , dreamed up by a left-wing satirist looking to skewer the dim and dangerous foreign-policy consensus class , but Robert Caruso is very real—even if portions of his impressive-looking author bio aren ’ t .

Purported USDA Official Threatens to Deny Food to Man Talking about Constitutional Rights
An alleged USDA official has threatened a man for talking about his Constitutional rights in a social media post on Tuesday.
Robert Caruso, a man who listed himself as a USDA employee on Twitter and formerly worked for the Federal Reserve and Department of Defense, picked a fight with pro-Constitution advocate Marc Randazza.
Power grabs… I can't believe you have an Italian surname. There were thousands of people in bars this weekend. Who's being oppressed? List them. Point them out. — Robert Caruso (@robertcaruso) March 16, 2020
The exchange grew more personal from there, and Caruso had the audacity to imply that Randazza would be denied food rations in a crisis for airing his constitutional opinions publicly.
This is happening, whether you like it or not. There will be curfews, freedom of assembly restricted, and—boy, it was not wise to snap at me—if it gets really bad, food will be rationed. Take a wild guess which department would ration the food. https://t.co/uzqaCvvrb8 — Robert Caruso (@robertcaruso) March 16, 2020
Caruso may not even be a real employee with the USDA, considering his long and documented history as a grifter going back many years.
Deadspin exposed Caruso’s history of deception back in 2016:
Which brings us to the strange case of Robert Caruso, a young, intense, and charismatic wannabe warmaker. He touts an impressive résumé for a 31-year-old: Per his bio at the Guardian and elsewhere, Caruso shops himself as a Navy veteran who “served in the Office of the Secretary of Defense” and “in the Bureau of Diplomatic Security at the Department of State and as a contractor for the Department of the Army.” These days he lists himself on LinkedIn as a “political consultant” and a “Fellow” with Hillary Clinton’s campaign. He’s a longtime and prolific member of natsec Twitter, well-liked and oft-cited by both “no-fly-zones-can-work” liberals and “let’s-nuke-China” conservatives… Unfortunately for the readers who get jazzed by this kind of stuff, there’s a problem with Caruso’s wunderkind image: His résumé is, at best, exaggerated. He’s not the well-connected operator he presents himself as. He may seem like a frothing parody of a Russia-obsessed centrist national security grifter, dreamed up by a left-wing satirist looking to skewer the dim and dangerous foreign-policy consensus class, but Robert Caruso is very real—even if portions of his impressive-looking author bio aren’t. Let’s begin with his résumé. Several sources close to Caruso say they never heard of him holding a job that went beyond an administrative assistant. “His opinions should not be taken seriously,” said a onetime military colleague, who requested anonymity to avoid retaliation from Caruso. (As you’ll see, this is not an unreasonable fear). “His opinion on Kit Kat bars should not be taken seriously.” The Clinton campaign told me they have no record of Caruso ever working as a “fellow” for them. Caruso provided me a reference, an unpaid volunteer in Dade City, Florida, who could not confirm his status as a fellow. A field organizer in Florida said there was no record of him on file as a fellow, and that the position is an informal, unpaid, intern-like gig in any case… Caruso’s Naval records show he was a yeoman, typically an enlistee in charge of clerical work. His discharge papers show that he began his service in November 15, 2005 and ended up on the the USS Harry S. Truman, attached to Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. His reason for discharge in March 2009 is redacted. His résumé says he was an “administrative assistant” who “[p]repared correspondence and travel arrangements for a C-level executive, their office, and personal staff.” Two sources familiar with Caruso’s time on the Truman, including an ex-shipmate, Ryan Baxter, say that he was a “paper pusher” who never saw combat, despite his remarks on Twitter about facing danger in “Iraq, Afghanistan, the Gulf, and the Horn [of Africa].”
Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) took Caruso to task on Twitter for his threats and potential abuse of power.
Guess what, Robert – Article I pays your bills. Back off your bureaucratic high-horse chief. This is not what public service is about. https://t.co/iGp2ug5ibo — Chip Roy (@chiproytx) March 17, 2020
Power-grabbing bureaucrats may turn out to be even worse for public health than the coronavirus itself when this crisis is all said and done.

Parents Speak Out Following Transgender ‘Brainwashing’ of 13-Year-Old Girl at Public School
British parents Ashleigh and Ged Barnett have had their little girl taken from her by the LGBT cult, as they allege that a public school “brainwashed” their teenage child into thinking she is transgender.
Their 13-year-old daughter, who they claim had shown no signs of being transgender before last September, had been referred to the head of the LGBT club at her public school by a teaching assistant with no formal training. This is when the demonic transformation started, after her alleged exposure to pro-trans propaganda that showed the benefits of surgical procedures to remove body parts.
“Our daughter was egged on to feel that she’s a boy in a girl’s body,” Mrs. Barnett said.
“The teaching assistant also pointed her in the direction of a YouTube website of a trans activist, which featured a video where they showed off their mastectomy scars and told how well the operation had gone,” she added.
The parents were not notified that their little girl was being subjected to this propaganda, and they feel betrayed by the school as a result. The 13-year-old girl has been inducted into a lifestyle that regularly leads to suicide, genital mutilation, sexual degeneracy, and heavy drug use.

Mrs. Barnett also claims that school officials started referring to her daughter by a boy’s name and encouraging her to change her clothes in a cubicle reserved for boys.

bigleaguepolitics--2020-03-17--Coronavirus Panic Does Not Slow Down Enthusiasm for Trump Campaign in Key Battleground State

The coronavirus panic has not impacted enthusiasm for President Trump ’ s campaign in the state of Michigan , as evidenced by a large event that took place at the South Lyon Hotel in South Lyon , Mich. on Friday .
The Michigan Trump Republicans hosted the luncheon event to recruit volunteers in the 11th Congressional district as they attempt to oust incumbent Congresswoman Haley Stevens , who has said publicly that she wants to put the NRA out of commission .
“ Representative Haley Stevens supports the “ do nothing Democrat ” agenda and has spoken out against voters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a Congress that has done nothing to help citizens , ” Michigan Conservative Coalition president Rosanne Ponkowski said in a press release .
Over 80 people attended the event on Friday amidst the coronavirus panic .
Some were still in attendance at the luncheon when President Trump announced a state of emergency .
Still , attendees are leery of joining in the mass panic that is sweeping the nation , which they feel is being exploited by the Democrat Party and the mainstream media to hurt the President ’ s re-election chances @ @ @ @ @ @ @ below “ The Left is using it against Trump , but it ’ s not affecting the enthusiasm of his supporters .
I think the Democrats are trying to use it to stop us from having rallies .
I don ’ t know how we made it through so many crises in the past with all of the panic we are seeing , ” said Kathy Kubik , a Republican precinct delegate from Commerce Township , who is skeptical about the impact of the virus .
The event organizers noted that attendees were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fears only emboldening their resolve to get the President re-elected .
“ I think the coronavirus has energized Trump supporters even more throughout the state .
The only people that we had cancel from attending the event were people that were going through chemotherapy , or people like my Nana who is 90-years-old .
They were the only people that cancelled .
Everyone else showed up , ” said Kelly Powell , one of the volunteers who helped organize the event .
“ I think the enthusiasm is higher , and I think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are hurting our economy and our way of life .
Michigan Women for Trump showed up and proved that we are not going to bow down to the hysteria , ” she added .
“ This is a serious situation to be sure , ” said Meshawn Maddock , leader of the 11th Congressional District Republicans , who helped emcee the event , “ but the Democrats condemn the President for stopping flights and then condemn him for not doing anything .
It ’ s just another topic for them to complain about.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ but outrage and passion from our people .
They can ’ t believe the fake news media gets to always dictate events and blame Trump for anything .
I don ’ t think it will have a big impact on the election because it is so far out .
We still have a lot of time to remind America how bad the Democrats are , ” she added .
This may have been the last large pro-Trump event in Michigan for some time , as Democrat Gov .
Gretchen Whitmer has ordered a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ people via executive order starting on Tuesday , Mar .

It will take far more than a Democrat edict to stop the Trump movement in this or any other battleground state from being a political powerhouse in November though .

“I think the enthusiasm is higher, and I think we are more mad because the Democrats are hurting our economy and our way of life. Michigan Women for Trump showed up and proved that we are not going to bow down to the hysteria,” she added.
“This is a serious situation to be sure,” said Meshawn Maddock, leader of the 11th Congressional District Republicans, who helped emcee the event, “but the Democrats condemn the President for stopping flights and then condemn him for not doing anything. It’s just another topic for them to complain about.”
“I’m hearing nothing but outrage and passion from our people. They can’t believe the fake news media gets to always dictate events and blame Trump for anything. I don’t think it will have a big impact on the election because it is so far out. We still have a lot of time to remind America how bad the Democrats are,” she added.
This may have been the last large pro-Trump event in Michigan for some time, as Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has ordered a ban on gatherings with 50 or more people via executive order starting on Tuesday, Mar. 17. It will take far more than a Democrat edict to stop the Trump movement in this or any other battleground state from being a political powerhouse in November though.

“The Chinese government has no right to influence American education the way Confucius Institutes have for the past sixteen years,” commented Senator Blackburn. “Those studying Chinese culture and language at schools like University of Memphis and Middle Tennessee State University ought to be alarmed that the Chinese government has made itself at home in their institutions.”

Senators Josh Hawley, Tom Cotton, Rick Scott, James Lankford, Mike Lee and Marco Rubio have joined Blackburn in pushing this legislation.
According to Clarksville Online, this legislation creates the following institutions:
Clearly delineating between the Confucius Institutes’ programs and their own Chinese language programs;
Locating an Institute apart from Chinese language, history, and cultural programs;
Removing the Chinese assistant director position from Institutes;
Subjecting the staff and professors to appropriate background checks;
Making the agreements publicly available online;
Removing the confidentiality section of agreements;
Including stronger language in the agreements to make it clearer that the U.S. school has executive decision-making authority.
“We know the Chinese Communist Party is using Confucius Institutes as a way to create influence on our college campuses. This is the right step in making it clear that Confucius Institutes are not independent centers of learning, but instruments of Beijing’s overseas propaganda machine,” declared Senator Hawley.
