    Bill and Hillary Clinton announce US/Canadian event series tour

    On Monday, Bill and Hillary Clinton made an announcement. They are going on tour across 13 U.S. cities to close out 2018 and extend it through 2019.

    The tours will consist of conversation-like series titled, “An Evening with President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton,” NBC News reported.

    Ticket sales begin Friday morning at 10 a.m. Ticket prices are expected to be around $700 for the best seats and as low as $70 for cheaper seats.

    The tours will be conducted by Live Nation, the same company that promoted Michelle Obama’s new memoir, “Becoming.” Live Nation also launched tours for several music legends.

    What on earth could these two grifters say that hasn’t been said over and over since the 1990s?

    I spoke too soon.

    According to Live Nation, the Clintons’ shows will include “stories and inspiring anecdotes that shaped their historic careers in public service, while also discussing issues of the day and looking toward the future.”

    Somehow I doubt Cigar Bill and the Bitch From Benghazi will make an appearance.

    Live Nation said, “Attendees will have the opportunity to hear one-of-a-kind conversations with the two leaders as they tell their stories from some of the most impactful moments in modern history. From the American presidency to the halls of the Senate and State Department, to one of the United States’ most controversial and unpredictable presidential elections, they provide a unique perspective on the past, and remarkable insight into where we go from here.”

    Well, there’s always this:

  • Doxxing Boy denied bail

    doxie boy

    Fox News reports a former House Democratic staffer accused of posting personal information about a Republican senator online was ordered held without bail Tuesday ahead of his pending trial.

    In denying Cosko bail, U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson said prosecutors had shown that no conditions could ensure the community’s safety if the suspect was released.

    27-year-old Jackson Cosko has been charged with several federal and local crimes in the District of Columbia, including making public restricted personal information; threatening a witness; unlawfully accessing a government computer and burglary of a senatorial office. He pleaded not guilty in court Tuesday.

    Well this isn’t looking good at all for Doxxing Boy. Self-inflicted wounds hurt the most. Maybe he can cop a plea with the DA?

    Naw, the lad has nothing worth swapping for a lighter sentence. Sucks to be him.

  • From homeless to hero — and maybe the cover of Maxim magazine?

    Janae

    Janae Sergio spent her high school years on the streets of Los Angeles, in and out of homeless shelters and programs for at-risk youth.

    So, when the 36-year-old Navy veteran heard about a competition that donates money toward building homes for wounded warriors, she knew she wanted to take part.

    “I know what it’s like to not have a home, so that’s really important to me,” she told Military Times.

    Sergio, now an assistant business and financial manager for the U.S. Pacific Fleet, is vying for a spot on the cover of the international men’s magazine Maxim, a competition that comes with a $25,000 prize for the lucky winner — and the kind of platform that would give Sergio a voice to inspire young people living in similar circumstances.

    Rags to riches? She now is out of uniform, but still working for Uncle Sam’s U.S. Pacific Fleet. Read more about this remarkable young woman in the Military Times

    Should have mentioned- she’s happily married and the mother of two daughters. It’s OK to be appreciative, just show some respect, too. Here’s a link to Janae’s instagram account with some 41K followers.

    President Donald Trump’s winning streak
    Analysis by Stephen Collinson, CNN
    Updated 12:27 PM ET, Sat October 6, 2018

    Donald Trump may have never had a better time being President.
    Only a re-election party on the night of November 3, 2020, could possibly offer the same vindication for America’s most unconventional commander in chief as the 36 hours in which two foundational strands of his political career are combining in a sudden burst of history.

    Trump will become an undeniably consequential President with the Senate due to vote Saturday to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, consecrating the conservative majority that has long been the impossible dream of the GOP.

    On Friday, Trump had celebrated the best jobs data for 49 years as the unemployment rate dipped to 3.7%, offering more proof of a vibrant economy that the President says has been unshackled by his tax-reduction program and scything cuts to business regulations.

    While his 2016 election campaign was most notable for swirling chaos and shattered norms, Trump’s vows to nominate conservative judges to the Supreme Court and to fire up the economy were the glue for his winning coalition.

    The struggle to confirm Kavanaugh split the country, deepened mistrust festering between rival lawmakers and threatens to further drag the Supreme Court into Washington’s poisoned political stew. But Trump stuck with it and ground out a win.

    So he has every right to return to voters in the next four weeks ahead of the midterm elections to argue he has done exactly what he said he would do. He now has a strong message to convince grass-roots Republicans that it’s well worth showing up at the polls.

    While not exactly pro-Trump, this article at least reports the facts on the ground, a refreshing change from the anti-conservative bias shown by nearly the entire Main Stream Media since 2016.

    Trump has indeed changed the dynamics in America’s foreign policy, taxes and the economy, placing Constitutional judges in Federal courts, and now on the Supreme Court. Twice. Rebuilding the military is a work in progress- the only misstep has been The Wall, and even that is on-going, albeit slowly.

    All this in spite of the distraction of supposed collusion with Russia during the election that placed him in the White House. It’s been a pretty amazing two years, and I am looking forward to the next six.

  • Sarah Palin: “Hey Lisa Murkowski – I can see 2022 from my house”

    sara palin

    Lisa Murkowski voted against closing debate on the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh; had the vote not passed it would have killed the nomination.

    She has stated she will vote “present” on the confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, so that Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., can attend his daughter’s wedding — avoiding the need for a frantic flight to D.C. for the father of the bride.

    Murkowski said she is a “no” on the nomination but will “pair” her vote with Daines and be marked “present” instead, meaning that Daines can remain at the wedding and not have to rush back.

    Pairing of votes in the Senate (sometimes called “live pairs”) is a rare but Senate accepted custom between senators on opposing sides of an issue, so their votes essentially offset each other. They reach a gentleperson’s agreement to “pair” their votes if one of the senators will be absent. Pairing will not affect the outcome of the vote.

    Mitch McConnell has stated any Republican Senator who votes against Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation will “…be toast…” meaning that the support one could expect for re-election from the Republican National Committee, and the office of the Senate Majority Leader, will evaporate.

    Enter Sara Palin, former Governor of Alaska and McCain Presidential running mate.

    Palin issued the tweet suggesting a possible challenge to Murkowski in 2022, when Murkowski is up for reelection.

    Early days, of course, but interesting. Murkowski losing senate support, and facing a possible primary challenge to her seat from the very well known Palin, may make her rue her decision to buck McConnell and down vote Kavanaugh.

  • Doxing Boy Update

    cosko doxer

    Former Democratic aide Jackson Cosko was arrested on charges of allegedly posting GOP senators’ private information online, known as “doxing,” made his first court appearance on Thursday.

    Cosko, 27, appeared in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia a day after being arrested for “doxxing” GOP senators on Wikipedia.

    The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia announced that Cosko has been charged with five federal offenses, including making public restricted personal information; making threats in interstate commerce; unauthorized access of a government computer; identity theft; and witness tampering.

    He is also charged with two D.C. offenses: Second-degree burglary, which carries up to 15 years in prison, and unlawful entry, which carries up to 6 months in prison.

    Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson ordered that Cosko be held in detention pending a hearing set for Oct. 9.

    Its all fun and games until that bitch “Accountability” shows up in the form of a District of Columbia Magistrate with zero sense of humor. The entire article can be viewed at The Hill

    But wait there’s more-

    Fox News has uncovered two social media accounts that supposedly belong to Cosko. One account, @TrundleDaGreat, which has not been active since October 2, is linked to Cosko’s personal email account. Cosko was arrested on October 3.

    The other one, named “Radical Ed” is linked to an email account – livefreeorpwn@gmail.com – that sent a threatening email to another staffer who confronted Cosko after catching him in the office of Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., using an unauthorized login, according to Capitol Police.

    “If you tell anyone I will leak it all. Emails signal conversations gmails. Senators children’s health information and socials,” read the threatening email allegedly sent by Cosko.

    The social media account tweeted Graham’s personal information, though without the address, in reply to Move On, a progressive advocacy group that also tweeted Graham’s office phone number.

    This explains the witness tampering charge, a Federal offense. As I understand it, a Federal beef has no parole, but may take time off for “exemplary behavior,” whatever that entails. Read the article in its entirety Here.

  • Former Democrat Staffer Arrested for Doxing GOP Senators

    doxxer

    United States Capitol Police (USCP) arrested a suspect yesterday on charges he allegedly posted private and identifying information on Wikipedia about a Republican senator, an act known as doxing. The incident occurred last Thursday, shortly after Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

    USCP released the following statement:

    Today, the United States Capitol Police arrested the Suspect who allegedly posted private, identifying information (doxing) about one or more United States Senators to the internet.

    Jackson A. COSKO, age 27, of Washington, D.C., has initially been charged with 18 USC § 119 Making Public Restricted Personal Information; 18 USC § 1512(b)(3) (Witness Tampering); 18 USC § 875(d) (Threats in Interstate Communications); 18 USC §1030(a)(3) (Unauthorized Access of a Government Computer); 18 USC § 1028(a)(7) (Identity Theft); DC Code § 22-801(b) (Second Degree Burglary), and DC Code §22-3302 (b) (Unlawful Entry).

    The investigation will continue and additional charges may be forthcoming.

    Cosko was recently an unpaid intern for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX), according to Roll Call, which also reported:

    [Cosko] previously worked for Democratic Sens. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire and California’s Barbara Boxer, who has since retired. Cosko was most recently listed in the Senate directory phone book as Hassan’s “legislative correspondent/systems administrator.” His LinkedIn profile says he left Hassan’s office in May 2018.

    This cowardly act is plainly intended to harass and intimidate the targeted Republican politician(s), and is especially dangerous considering the current poisoned political atmosphere in DC and elsewhere. Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Orrin Hatch (R-UT), and Mike Lee (R-UT) had personal and identifying information posted on Wikipedia.

    Fox News reported that Cosko either worked or interned for Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and for retired Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) as well.
