(Fox News) Stars boycott Super Bowl over NFL's 'racist treatment' of Colin Kaepernick. "Selma" director Ava DuVernay (never thought of her as a “star”) tweeted Sunday. "I will not be a spectator, viewer or supporter of the #SuperBowl today in protest of the @NFL’s racist treatment of @Kaepernick7 and its ongoing disregard for the health + well-being of all its players. To watch the game is to compromise my beliefs. It’s not worth it. #ImWithKap" Resistance actress Rosanna Arquette (Patricia’s sister) tweeted “Me too.” (Ava did the same last year, posing with Kaepernick and tweeting, “The only football player I’m checking for this weekend. ‘Cause I cannot pretend that everything is okay with this enterprise.”) Black rapper & actor Common quoted far-left black feminist and former Communist Angela Davis who wore an #ImWithKap jersey. Black lesbian actress Lena Waithe (of Ready Player One) also posted the pic of Angela Davis on Instagram, along with a black power fist emoji. Mariah Carey’s young ex-husband and black comedian Nick Cannon posted a video reciting a poem about police brutality, slavery and oppression of minorities throughout history. He pushed for people to donate to Kapernick’s propaganda organization “Know Your Rights” something-or-other. Amy Schumer took credit for the entertainment world's boycott of the NFL and Super Bowl, while stars including Rihanna and Cardi B declined halftime performances in solidarity with Kaepernick. Maroon 5 performed, along with Travis Scott and Big Boi.
(Fox News) Super Bowl Halftime Show: Maroon 5, Travis Scott, & Big Boi avoid politics and stick to hits. 39yo Maroon 5 singer Adam Levine, a married father of two & pro-LGBTQ activist whose brother is openly homosexual, took off his shirt in the performance. But he didn’t take a knee for Kaepernick. And they have a lot of hits. On Friday, he had said of their decision to perform: "No one thought about it more than I did. No one put more thought and love into this than I did. ... I spoke to many people, most importantly though, I silenced all the noise and listened to myself, and made my decision about how I felt." Kaepernick's attorney, Mark Geragos, slammed Levine and the band, calling their performance and Levine's comments a "cop-out."

(National Review) More Strange Details in the Jussie Smollett Case: Jussie Smollett, the gay black actor who appears on the TV show Empire, did a concert Saturday night during which he addressed the alleged hate-crime assault he suffered early Tuesday morning near a Subway sandwich shop in downtown Chicago. He made “four points” including, quote: “I was bruised but my ribs were not cracked; they were not broken. I went to the doctor immediately. . . . I was not hospitalized. … And above all: I fought the f*** back.” He said he was on the phone with his manager during the attack, and still had his Subway sandwich after the attack. NR says: Also he didn’t immediately call the police on that phone to describe the suspects and inform the police which way they had gone when they suddenly ran away from him, but instead waited about 40 minutes to inform the police.
(CNN) ICE arrests rapper 21 Savage, says he's illegally present in US. Grammy-nominated rapper 21 Savage was arrested in Atlanta early Sunday by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE says that the rapper, whose real name is Shayaabin Abraham-Joseph, is a citizen of the United Kingdom. The agency alleges that he entered the US legally in July 2005, when he was a minor, but subsequently failed to depart under the terms of his nonimmigrant visa. ICE says Abraham-Joseph became unlawfully present when his visa expired in July 2006. A lawyer for the ex-boyfriend of Amber Rose says: "Mr. Abraham-Joseph is a role model to the young people in this country, especially in Atlanta, Georgia, and is actively working in the community leading programs to help underprivileged youths in financial literacy." Abraham-Joseph was also convicted on felony drug charges in October 2014 in Fulton County, Georgia, ICE said. 21 Savage features on the song "Rockstar" by Post Malone, which was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Rap Performance at the Grammys. Fans are shocked because he’s so closely associated with Atlanta. He has said the "21" in his name is a reference to a street gang in Decatur, and his songs often refer to his past in East Atlanta's Zone 6. In "Bank Account," for example, he raps that he is "straight up out the 6."

(ABC 11) There’s a proposal to withhold pay from Congress and the president during government shutdowns. Three congressmen introduced a bill that would withhold pay from members of Congress (who also are veterans), the president and the vice president in the event of a government shutdown. Rep. Max Rose (D) of New York, Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R) of Texas and Rep. Jared Golden (D) of Maine introduced the "Solidarity in Salary Act" on the House floor Tuesday afternoon. Crenshaw said, "Federal employees should never have to carry the burden caused by a dysfunctional government. We should have to feel the very real effects of a shutdown, just as our fellow federal employees are forced to do.” The legislation comes days after the 35-day government shutdown, the longest in U.S. history, denied pay to 800,000 federal workers. According to the bill, daily pay for the president, vice president and congressmen would be placed in escrow. That money would be released after the government reopens. Similar legislation, the "No Budget, No Pay" bill, has been proposed by Sen. Rick Scott of Florida and 11 other members of the Senate.

(The Hill) Christian university blocks Ben Shapiro from speaking. A private Christian university in Arizona has canceled a planned appearance by conservative writer Ben Shapiro, but said the decision is not "a reflection of his ideologies or the values he represents." Grand Canyon University (GCU) said in a statement on Saturday that members of the campus community indicated they were "disappointed and offended" by an initial decision to allow Shapiro to speak. "It was not our intent to disappoint or offend anyone," the Phoenix-based university said. "It was, rather, to use our position as a Christian university to bring unity to a community that sits amidst a country that is extremely divided and can't seem to find a path forward toward unity." The school pointed to its "unique and united community" on campus as an antidote to a "divided America," and called for a "focus on opportunities that bring people together." Shapiro, the editor of conservative website The Daily Wire, has been blocked from speaking on a number of college campuses, with several citing concerns about the potential for violent protests. Quoting the Bible, GCU suggested in its statement that officials are taking on the role of "peacemaker" by canceling Shapiro's appearance. "If you look at America's history, the Church has been at its best when it has worked to achieve the kind of peace that Jesus commended: 'Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God' (Matthew 5:9, ESV)," the statement read. "Making peace in a way that honors Christ is something we will continue to try to do."
(Fox News) Michael Moore says Dems need to accept far-left Ocasio-Cortez as party leader: 'No middle ground anymore.' Documentary filmmaker Michael Moore declared U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the new leader of the Democratic Party, urging political moderates to take a position because there “is no middle ground anymore.” “She is the leader. Everybody knows it. Everybody feels it,” he said during a Friday interview on MSNBC. Moore said the age requirement to run for president - 35 - should be constitutionally amended so that Ocasio-Cortez could run for president, citing a Fox News poll that showed voters favored her proposal to increase the tax rate to 70 percent for the richest Americans. “If you're being moderate, stop being moderate. Take a position,” Moore responded. “There's no middle ground anymore. There's no halfway point to should somebody be paid a living wage. 'Well, I'm a moderate so I think they could be paid half of that living wage.' You know, on the issue of choice, there is no halfway there. You're either for it or you're against it. Do you believe in equal rights for women? Do you believe we should have an Equal Rights Amendment? There's no middle ground. There's no time for moderation.”

Wursthall will continue... to serve all customer (sic) regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual preference, gender orientation, disability, or political opinion — so long as they leave hate, anger, and violence outside of the doors of our restaurant.” Lopez-Alt posted a tweet LAST Sunday comparing MAGA hats to wearing swastikas and white hoods from the Ku Klux Klan. “...if you come to my restaurant wearing a MAGA cap, you aren’t getting served, same as if you come in wearing a swastika, white hood, or any other symbol of intolerance and hate,” said a now-deleted tweet from Lopez-Alt that spurred a lot of backlash on the restaurant’s Yelp and Facebook pages with negative reviews.

(Radar) Bill Cosby Diagnosing Inmates Behind Bars As Dr. Cliff Huxtable of The Cosby Show. Prison ‘patients’ say they ‘just play along to make him feel better.’ Cosby reportedly says that medical officials at Pennsylvania’s SCI Phoenix state prison are “overeducated, unintelligent children with a clipboard. … He is accepting appointments from inmates to help diagnose anything from a cold to obesity. ...he wore a bedsheet like an ‘apron’ to get into character. He said his medical skills are ‘a tad rusty’ since he played Dr. Huxtable, but he’s still ‘hip’ to the ‘role.’” Cosby’s longtime publicist, Andrew Wyatt, confirmed Cosby “has regular and in-depth discussions about getting better nutrition for the residents … getting them on natural supplements because residents and officers have major health problems.” (A judge whose wife works with alleged college rape victims sentenced him to prison after a lesbian accused him of molesting her. 60 women accused him of similar things with no proof. He admitted to giving Quaaludes to women for sex, which was the most popular party drug in the ‘70s according to AP.)
(TMZ) BLAC CHYNA'S EX-BF, KID BUU CHILD ABUSE CHARGE SURFACES, saying he Punched Baby Mama in Face. Blac Chyna's ex-boyfriend, rapper Kid Buu, was once charged and convicted of child abuse after cops say he punched his baby mama in front of their kid. Then-19-year-old Kid Buu (real name Markquez Santiago) was busted in Florida in 2008 after he got into a fight with his girlfriend the mother of his then-2yo child — the mother was a minor. He was charged with child abuse (without causing great bodily harm), intimidation, robbery by sudden snatching (he’d grabbed a check from her), and criminal mischief. He said he pled guilty "for my own convenience and to move on with life." (TMZ) Last week we reported Blac Chyna scratched Kid Buu after accusing him of cheating, and he supposedly slammed her against the wall several times and choked her. No one was reported seriously hurt. Rob Kardashian has a 2-y-o daughter named “Dream Renée Kardashian” with Blac Chyna who went MIA on him when she jetted to Hawaii with her then-BF Kid Buu without telling him — she was supposed to have Dream with her at the time.

Raphael Samuel, age 27, of India, compared having children to 'kidnapping and slavery.’ His Facebook page Childfree India shares anti-natalist posts to hundreds of followers. He intends to sue his parents despite having a 'great relationship' with them. 'I love my parents, and we have a great relationship, but they had me for their joy and their pleasure. My life has been amazing, but I don't see why I should put another life through the rigamarole of school and finding a career, especially when they didn't ask to exist.' He says: 'Isn't forcing a child into this world and then forcing it to have a career kidnapping and slavery?' And ‘Should we continue to bring more children in this world and accelerate the process of environmental and social degradation?’

(Fox News) North Carolina man holds burglary suspects at gunpoint outside of home — caught on video. Accused burglars walking out of a North Carolina home they'd allegedly just robbed Sunday were met by a man pointing a gun at them. Stephen Routh headed to his parent's home after receiving a call about some unusual people seen on the property. He held 3 at gunpoint while on the phone with 911 dispatchers. “I had the gun and they were coming out, and as soon as they saw the big gun pointed at them, their hands went up. They know this is not their home. They know they had no business in here, and they mentioned they just thought they would just go in there and look around.” They’d allegedly ransacked the home and left broken glass everywhere. The suspects were 14, 15 and 17 years old. Police called the parents of the minors and took the 17-year-old into custody.

(Fox News) Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) jumps into the 2020 White House race. The high-profile Democrat announced in a tweet and email to supporters including a two-minute campaign-launch video. Quote: “I believe that we can build a country where no one is forgotten, no one is left behind; where parents can put food on the table; where there are good-paying jobs with good benefits in every neighborhood.” Fox News says he’s known for his oratory skills. The former mayor of Newark, NJ, said he envisions a country, quote, “where our criminal justice system keeps us safe, instead of shuffling more children into cages and coffins; where we see the faces of our leaders on television and feel pride, not shame.” … The field of Democrat candidates includes Sen. Kamala Harris of CA (who announced on MLK Day last week); former San Antonio mayor & former HUD secretary Julian Castro; Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of HI; former Rep. John Dalaney of MD; Sen.s Elizabeth Warren of MA & Kirsten Gillibrand of NY set up presidential exploratory committees, as has the mayor of South Bend, IN, Pete Buttigieg. … Booker told the story in his video of his parents’ struggle to move their family into a predominantly white neighborhood with great public schools. He bragged that he moved as an adult to Newark’s Central Ward, a low-income inner-city neighborhood where he continues to live. Back when he opposed Kavanaugh in a big show, he said, “This is the closest I’ll probably ever have in my life to an ‘I am Spartacus’ moment” — Spartacus being a gladiator and rebel slave leading a rebellion against the Roman Empire. People made fun of him for that.

(L.A. Times) Travel agents have been charged with bringing pregnant Chinese women to give birth on U.S. soil. Pregnant Chinese women would call “You Win USA Vacation Services” where employees allegedly coached women on lies they should write on bogus applications for tourist visas, and made sure the ladies travelled before their bellies swelled too much to conceal. They were told to fly first to Hawaii to blend in with tourists, list the Trump Int’l Hotel in Honolulu as their destination, then hop on a flight to Los Angeles. Federal authorities say the scheme went on for years. But Thursday the operator of YouWin USA of Irvine, and his wife, as well as the owners of another “Birth Tourism” company called USA Happy Baby in San Bernardino, CA, were arrested & charged with crimes including immigration fraud, money laundering and identity theft, according to indictments filed in US District court. They also indicted a 65-y-o woman, Wen Rui Deng who’s a US Citizen believed to be living in China, accused of running a Los Angeles agency called Star Baby Care. This was a long-running investigation by agents in DHS and IRS into three outfits operating for years out of L.A., the Inland Empire, and Orange County, CA. They charged as much as $100,000 for their services. (Producer note: Children born in the US are as a policy called “citizens” and are “anchor babies.”)

(Fox News) Trump accuses 'lame duck' Paul Ryan of breaking promise to fund border wall when GOP held Congress. President Trump lashed out against former House Speaker Paul Ryan in an interview published on Wednesday, saying he broke his word to fund the U.S.-Mexico border wall while Republicans controlled both the House and Senate if Trump signed the unpopular 2018 omnibus bill. The $1.3 trillion spending bill signed in March last year avoided a government shutdown, but didn’t live up to the president’s campaign promise of funding the border wall. (CNN) Trump told the Daily Caller, “Well, I was going to veto the omnibus bill and Paul told me in the strongest of language, ‘Please don’t do that, we’ll get you the wall.’ And I said, ‘I hope you mean that, because I don’t like this bill.’ Paul told me in the strongest of terms that, ‘Please sign this and if you sign this we will get you that wall.’ Which is desperately needed by our country. Humanitarian crisis, trafficking, drugs, you know, everything -- people, criminals, gangs, so, you know, we need the wall. And then he went lame duck. And once he went lame duck, it was just really an exercise in waving to people, and the power was gone so I was very disappointed in Paul because the wall was so desperately needed. And I’ll get the wall.’” Paul decided to retire instead of running for reelection in 2018.
(CNN) In an interview with New York Times: Trump slams shutdown talks between Congressional lawmakers as “a waste of time,” saying he's 'set the stage' for taking action on wall. Quote: “I think Nancy Pelosi is hurting our country very badly by doing what she's doing and, ultimately, I think I've set the table very nicely. I've set the table. I've set the stage for doing what I'm going to do.” Trump temporarily ended the shutdown last Friday, but if Trump does not find the deal delivered to him by February 15 satisfactory, parts of the government may shut down again -- and he could declare a national emergency to fund the wall himself. He said of Pelosi, “I've actually always gotten along with her, but now I don't think I will any more.” He said she’s “doing a tremendous disservice to the country…. I'll continue to build the wall, and we'll get the wall finished," Trump added. "Now whether or not I declare a national emergency -- that you'll see." (CNBC) Pelosi told reporters Thursday morning, “There’s not going to be any wall money in the legislation.” Trump accused Pelosi of “just playing games,” and said if they don’t include adequate wall funding, “I don’t even want to waste my time reading what they have, because it’s a waste of time. Because the only thing that works for security and safety for our country is a wall.” Pelosi’s talking about “Normandy fencing,” movable metal bars arranged in an “X” pattern, which would block vehicles but not people. She said, “If the president wants to call that a wall, he can call that a wall. … Is there a place for enhanced fencing? Normandy fencing would work.”
(CNN cont.) Trump also defended Roger Stone in his NY Times interview: asked whether he discussed WikiLeaks with Stone or directed anyone to coordinate with him on the matter, Trump told the Times "I never did." He called Stone "a character" who he's "always liked," and called the FBI's early morning raid on Stone's home "a very sad thing for this country."

(Fox News) Bloomberg takes swipe at Ocasio-Cortez, suggests 'Green New Deal' not 'realistic.' Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg on Tuesday went after both Trump and fellow Democrat potential rivals. Bloomberg criticized the "Green New Deal," a bill being pushed by Ocasio-Cortez and other progressive lawmakers that would eliminate much of the United States’ fossil-fuel consumption. “You have to have realistic things; we are not overnight going to change everything we do,” Bloomberg said. “People aren’t going to overnight give up their jobs if those jobs happen not to be on the side of the Green New Deal.” He’s contributed millions to the battle against climate change as well as the push for “gun safety.” He says, “One of the things my foundation has done: We’ve funded Sierra Club. They’ve already closed half of all the coal-fired power plants in the country. That’s reduced greenhouse gases by 18 percent.” He says, “I will work to ensure that fighting climate change, and spurring economic development in areas that have depended on fossil fuels, is a top priority for the Democratic nominee.” The 77-y-o Bloomberg is a Republican-turned-independent who returned to the Democratic Party just last year. He criticized Kamala Harris’s “medicare for all” idea, and Elizabeth Warren’s wealth tax for the super rich. He also criticized Bernie Sanders’ idea of free tuition for community colleges. He also criticized fellow billionaire Howard Schultz for running independent.

(Fox News, cont.) Mike Bloomberg also attacked President Trump, claiming he “failed at business and now I think it’s fair to say he’s failing at governing.” He says “The government shutdown was an utter failure of executive leadership, and I think it’s an example of just totally incompetent management that needlessly hurt millions of people. I’m glad the shutdown is over for now, but the American people will continue paying a steep cost for White House incompetence, because the president is fixated on a wall we don’t need instead of real challenges we face.” Bloomberg said, ““his own administration produced a damaging report showing that we face what they called ‘substantial damage to the U.S. economy, environment, and human health from climate change.’ And you know what the president said in response? ‘I don’t believe it.’ the president’s EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has been waging an assault on clean air and water protections.”
(Fox News) Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) was awarded over $580,000 in damages by a Kentucky jury on Wednesday after he was attacked by his neighbor in the fall of 2017. That included $375,000 in punitive damages and $200,000 for pain and suffering, plus $7,834 for medical expenses. The lawmaker was violently attacked by his neighbor, Rene Boucher, in November 2017 while he was mowing his lawn. Paul was tackled from behind and suffered six broken ribs, including three displaced fractures. His recovery was complicated by fluid and blood around the lungs and recurrent pneumonia. Boucher pleaded guilty in March to a federal charge of assaulting a member of Congress and had asked for probation. He was sentenced in June to 30 days in federal prison for the assault. He was also ordered to one year of supervised release, a $10,000 fine, 100 hours of community service, and ordered to have no contact with Paul's family. Paul says he should have gotten a longer sentence. Boucher’s lawyer claims it had nothing to do with politics but with a dispute over something trivial, leaves being blown on his property, piles of brush on Paul’s property — but Paul says there were never words of dispute exchanged, and no quote-unquote “longstanding dispute.”

The latest developments as of yesterday were that at least 21 deaths are believed to be related to the bitter weather system, including an 18yo U. of Iowa pre-med student Gerald Belz who was found behind an academic hall after 2am, several hours before dawn on Weds. A weather observer in Mount Carroll, IL, recorded a temp of minus 38 Thursday morning, which if confirmed by officials would beat Illinois’s record low of minus 36. The cold-taxed energy systems led to some power failures and calls to customers to reduce heat in their homes. Schools, businesses and restaurants remained shuttered Thursday, although some offices reopened and more are expected to open today Friday. Airlines had cancelled more than 2,300 flights by Thursday evening for the day. On Weds. cancellations topped 2,700. Temps in NYC barely broke into double digits Thursday.

(CNN) Measles outbreaks in Washington state and New York are challenging public health systems. An official said Weds. the current measles outbreak in Wash. state has tallied the highest number of infections since 1996. One case in Oregon is linked to the outbreak. Two patients have been hospitalized. Hawaii reported two cases of measles in travelers who were infected in Wash. before their visit to the Big Island. (Measles is a contagious virus spread through the air thru coughing & sneezing. High fever, rash all over the body and reddened eyes are typical measles symptoms, which usually disappear with treatment over 2-3 weeks. 1 or 2 in 1000 children who get measles die from complications, says the CDC — US Centers for Disease Control & Prevention.) The first case was traced to an international traveler who had contact with “community groups” with low vaccination rates. Wash. Dept. of Health identified 11 healthcare facilities, 13 schools & childcare centers, & over 100 public places including stores where people may have been exposed to the virus. They say vaccination rates are low in “certain communities” with as few as 60% of children getting vaccinated with MMR (Measles, Mumps, & Rubella) vaccine. As a result of a 2014 Disneyland outbreak, California Democrats passed SB 277 removing “personal belief” exemptions from mandatory vaccinations for entry into private OR public schools & day care centers. (Noticeably the media don’t get very specific about the communities who don’t vaccinate, and they don’t cite the concerns such as symptoms of autism, etc., that many people say are linked with some vaccinations.)

Collins pointed out that when Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., was indicted in 2015 on 14 charges, his lawyers were allowed to discuss how the lawmaker would voluntarily surrender. Collins also wanted to know if the FBi spoke to any media prior. A CNN commentator was near the scene during the time of the raid on Stone’s house and overheard his conversation with FBI agents.

(Politico) Sarah Sanders: God wanted Trump to become president. Sanders said during an interview with Christian Broadcast Network News, “I think God calls all of us to fill different roles at different times, and I think that he wanted Donald Trump to become president. And that’s why he’s there, and I think he has done a tremendous job in supporting a lot of the things that people of faith really care about.” Politico says that the president has long touted his Christian faith, and white evangelical voters have overwhelmingly supported his presidency. Trump admin. supports issues backed by evangelicals, such as restricting abortion rights, eliminating a birth control mandate, and expanding school choice and voucher programs. Recently, Trump in a tweet endorsed what Politico is calling a controversial campaign to introduce Bible literacy classes to public schools. Politico seems confused, citing what they call several gaffes, such as when he mispronounced “Second Corinthians" during the 2016 campaign. They also say he was criticized for not saying the Apostle’s Creed or singing some of the hymns during George H.W. Bush’s funeral in December. And of course they classlessly cite his past: Trump's multiple divorces and alleged affairs have also not significantly affected the president’s popularity among white evangelical voters.

(The Hill) Ocasio-Cortez on Schultz: Why are billionaires who want to run for president never told to ‘work their way up’? Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday ripped former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz over his possible independent presidential bid, suggesting his lack of political experience pointed to a double standard. "Why don't people ever tell billionaires who want to run for President that they need to 'work their way up' or that 'maybe they should start with city council first'?" the 29-year-old congresswoman tweeted. She quote-tweeted a Daily Beast article saying “Howard Schultz blames Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for his decision to run as an Independent and it has to do with her plan to tax the rich.” Schultz, the son of a truck driver who lived in a housing project, became a billionaire from his time at the helm of Starbucks. He said Tuesday morning, "It's far two extremes on both sides and the silent majority of America does not have a voice, and that's the voice I want to give." (Question: Is he the one who pushed same-sex marriage and homosexuality in America’s face? And told investors to find another company to invest in if they don’t like it?) But he attacked Ocasio-Cortez's proposal to impose a 70 percent marginal tax rate on income above $10 million, slammed Sen. Kamala Harris's (D-Calif.) plan for "Medicare for all" as "not American" and said Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-Mass.) plan for a special 2 percent annual tax on Americans whose net worth exceeds $50 billion was "ridiculous."

Mexico’s Institute of National Migration confirmed that their temporary asylum visa fast-track program is suspended, and no more of those visas will be given for now. The Wall Street Journal first reported Tuesday that some 12,600 migrants, mostly from Honduras, applied for humanitarian visas since Jan. 16, and 4,000 have received them. Mexico is talking about making new migrants to apply in the Mexican Embassy in their native countries. But it’s unclear if officials will enforce Mexico’s southern border more aggressively. A caravan of nearly 2,000 left from San Pedro Sula, Honduras' most violent city, on Jan. 14. Upon arrival in Mexico, new migrants must fill out a form indicating their country of origin, gender and age — but are not required to give their name. They have the option — but are not required — to officially register in Mexico and seek temporary asylum for up to one year.

(NY Times) “Undocumented Immigrant who worked for Trump will attend his State of the Union.” An “undocumented immigrant” who worked at a Trump golf club in NJ for years and recently spoke out about her experience was invited by “her Democratic congresswoman,” according to the woman’s lawyer and the Congresswoman’s office. Victorina Morales had worked as a housekeeper at Trump Nat’l Golf Club in Bedminster, NJ, since 2013, & spoke to NY Times last month. On the advice of her lawyer Anibal Romero, she stopped going to work Dec. 4, two-days before the Times published the article. Morales is from Guatemala and since ditching her job has campaigned for rights & fair treatment of “undocumented immigrants.” She said she’s “very proud because I am going to raise my voice for all of us immigrants.” She said in Spanish, “I’m not scared to show my face. I am not speaking for me, I’m speaking on behalf of millions of undocumented immigrants who live in the United States.” The congresswoman is Bonnie Watson Coleman, representing the district where this woman Morales lives. Watson Coleman said, “Immigrants by and large are hardworking, trustworthy and skilled people who simply want to work and build better lives here. For years these kinds of people were loyal and dedicated enough to be Trump Organization employees. I hope that in his State of the Union Address, Donald Trump will finally acknowledge the real face of immigrants in this country — women and children fleeing violence; law-abiding, taxpaying people who would do almost anything to be Americans. And if he can’t, I’ve invited Victorina so that he may look her in her eyes and tell his lies to a familiar face.”

(Las Vegas Review Journal) FBI says the Las Vegas gunman may have sought infamy, and been influenced by his father’s memory — but they failed to determine any specific motive in the 10-minute shooting attack on Route 91 Harvest festival by 64-y-o Stephen Paddock on Oct 1st, 2017, which left 58 concertgoers dead and more than 800 injured. Las Vegas police released a similar report last August, finding no motive. The killer was positioned in the Mandalay Bay and reportedly shot himself with a revolver. They said his physical and mental health was declining as he aged, and kept his thoughts private, leaving no “suicide note.” His father was a convicted bank robber who escaped from federal prison in 1968 and landed on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. He was arrested nearly a decade later, largely absent from Paddock’s life, and died in 1998. Paddock had no known grievance with Mandalay Bay, Route 91, or the concert goers. Police found 50lb of explosives in his car the night of the attack. He’d sealed the stairwell door outside his suite with an L-bracket that police broke by hand. He’d set-up cameras to give him warning of anyone approaching. Paddock reportedly used a bump-stock in order to fire more rapidly, allegedly wanting maximum casualties. The FBI claim he acted alone.

(TMZ) Black male actor Jussie Smollett of the Fox series ‘Empire’ says he was attacked by two white males wearing ski masks in Chicago early Tuesday morning around 2AM. Sources claim he arrived from New York late Monday night, was hungry and had gone for Subway when the alleged attackers shouted, “Aren’t you that f—got ‘Empire’ N-word?” The story goes that they beat him up, shouting “MAGA country!” (This was not mentioned in the initial police report but in a subsequent police interview with Smollett) as he fought back, poured a substance believed to be bleach on him, and left a noose around his neck, which he was still wearing at 2:42 AM when he made contact with police. He reportedly suffered a fractured rib, some scrapes and bruises. He was discharged from the hospital later that morning. Police are working with the FBI — investigating it as a possible “hate crime.” ‘Empire’ director Lee Daniels called it “Just another f—in’ day in America.” Days earlier he received a death threat letter sent to Empire. CA Sen. & presidential hopeful Kamala Harris tweeted, “This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.” (ET) The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (better known as GLAAD) released a statement: "GLAAD condemns these despicable acts as well as the racism and homophobia that drove them. Law enforcement needs to...be transparent with Chicago’s Black and LGBTQ communities who may be experiencing heightened fears of violence. Jussie’s experience is sadly not unique in today’s America. Countless LGBTQ and people of color, as well as those who belong to both communities, are faced with hate-motivated violence on a near daily basis. We stand with Black and racial justice leaders to combat hate violence in all of its forms.” Back in 2015, Jussie had come out as homosexual on the (lesbian) Ellen Degeneres show. He also plays a homosexual character imagined after director Lee Daniels’s own experience.

At Church Jan 27, “Bad Marriages & Family Relationships” — we talked about Iyanla Vanzant of the TV show “Iyanla, Fix My Life!” in which Iyanla gave bad advice to a messed up family in which the mother told her three daughters that their father raped them when they were children — she took a lie detector test and the results showed the mother lied! But she still wouldn’t admit to having lied, nor that she was wrong, and she refused to apologize. Iyanla told the father he didn’t have to forgive her, but Iyanla also went easy on the mother. Jesse said the father (and daughters) should forgive the mother and then have nothing to do with the evil woman.

Christie said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Tuesday, “I must’ve said this to him two dozen times over the last two years. You need to stop. You’re making this worse.’” The Republican former New Jersey governor, who was succeeded by current Democrat Governor Phil Murphy, has a new book out titled “Let Me Finish.” He claims that on Feb 14, 2017, Trump and Jared Kushner thought the Russia controversy was over because Trump fired Michael Flynn who met with some Russians and allegedly lied to VP Mike Pence about it. Christie wanted Trump NOT to tweet about the “Russia” investigation because, but he’s tweeted at least 92 times about it in less than 2 years, frequently calling it a “WITCH HUNT!” Christie also criticized Trump’s lawyers as a “C-level legal team.” Christie himself went through a controversy with “Bridgegate,” when a political appointee allegedly colluded to close lanes and create traffic jams during rush hour, and some suggest there were political motivations. Christie also famously hugged then-President Obama during the fallen messiah’s 2012 re-election campaign during a natural disaster, which some say

(CNN) Stacey Abrams will give the State of the Union rebuttal on Feb 5, the Democrat response to Trump’s address, according to Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer. She’s the far-left Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate who wouldn’t concede the election and kept saying there was voter suppression. She made headlines appearing on-stage with Oprah at a campaign event. She would have been the first “African American” female governor of GA and was endorsed by Barack Obama. Abrams was the GA state house minority leader. She’s pro-abortion, Pro-gun control, anti-voter ID, and opposes religious liberty bills. She wants to increase Medicaid and education spending, and to get rid of money bail for criminal defendents. In April 2018, Abrams wrote an op-ed for Fortune revealing that she owes $50,000 in back taxes and holds $170,000 in credit card and student loan debt.

Khabib’s two teammates got physical with McGregor amid the chaos, they were each banned 1 year and fined $25,000. Khabib’s 9-month suspension could be reduced to 6 months if he records an anti-bullying message for UFC. (Mirror) McGregor was also banned 6 months for his part, counted from Oct 6, and fined 50,000 pounds — he remained in the cage but he hit someone in Khabib’s crew and himself was hit.

(AP) An appeals court was set to hear the case of independent reporter Sharyl Attkisson (a longtime investigative reporter for CBS News) who alleges surveillance of her phone and computer by the Obama administration. She heard clicking sounds on her phone and her computers turned on and off by themselves in the middle of the night and thought it was just a glitch. Attkisson alleged in a 2015 lawsuit that former Attorney General Eric Holder, former Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, and unnamed federal agents conducted unauthorized surveillance of her home and electronic devices in an attempt to determine who was leaking confidential information to her. A federal judge has dismissed the case as overstepping his courts authority because it “would require inquiry into sensitive Executive Branch discussions and decisions.” Attkisson’s appeal was to be heard by the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. She said that she, her husband and daughter first noticed unusual activity with their electronic devices in 2011, after she did a story on Operation Fast and Furious, a failed sting operation in which federal agents allowed firearms dealers to sell weapons to straw purchasers in an attempt to trace the guns back to Mexican drug cartels, which resulted in a US border agent being killed.

(CBS News) Kamala Harris kicked off her campaign rally in Oakland. She called Trump's push for a wall a “medieval vanity project.” She said, quote, “Folks, on the subject of transnational gangs, let's be perfectly clear: The president's medieval vanity project is not going to stop them.” She also said, “When we have children in cages, crying for their mothers and fathers, don't you dare call that border security," she added later. "That's a human rights abuse.”
(CBS News) Kamala Harris' campaign launch pays tribute to Shirley Chisholm's 1972 run — Chisholm was the first black woman elected to Congress, and reportedly the first black woman ever to run for president 47 years ago — under the Feminist Party. Both Kamala Harris & Shirley Chisolm are the daughters of immigrants, & both started their campaigns January 25th. Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA), said she was about to flunk out of a college government class at Mills College that required campaign work, since she was uninspired by the other Democrats in the 1972 race. But Lee said that Chisholm quote “talked about all the issues that were resonating with me as a young African-American single mom on public assistance.” Kamala Harris is the second “African American” woman to serve in the Senate, and chose MLK Jr. Day to launch her candidacy. Harris is the 4th woman to launch a presidential campaign this year.
(Breitbart) 84-y-o ex-San Francisco mayor Willie Brown confirmed his past relationship with Dem Senator & presidential hopeful Kamala Harris (who’s nearly 30 years his junior at 54 today). Brown in an op-ed this past weekend in the San Francisco Chronicle titled, “Sure I dated Kamala Harris. So what?” The relationship was over 20 years ago. He was married but separated from his wife at the time. He also confirms he appointed her to two state jobs during his time as Assembly speaker. About a year ago, Willie Brown criticized Harris in a prior column, saying she cared more about energizing the base and recruiting more constituencies as than being practical and looking for a spot in the middle to help Dreamers.

Jackson (who I personally find hard to watch). Second and third spots were taken by The Upside (with Kevin Hart) and Aquaman (with Jason Mamoa). "The Upside" stars Bryan Cranston as a wealthy quadriplegic who hires ex-convict Kevin Hart as his caretaker. It’s a remake of a French film. Aquaman has now generated $1.09 billion in global box office revenues, making it the largest DC Comics adaptation of all time.

(Associated Press) Trump is willing to shutdown the government again in order to fund the wall, so said White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney on CBS’s Face the Nation on Sunday. The president signed a spending bill Friday to fund the government agencies that had been shutdown but only until Feb 15th, ending the record 35-day shutdown. Styxhexenhammer666 I believe said those who went without pay received their back pay for the time they’d worked for free. Democrat Rep. Hakeem Jeffries of New York told NBC’s Meet the Press that a wall is a “5th century solution to a 21st century problem. What we want to support over the next few weeks is 21st century border security." But Mulvaney told Fox News Sunday that Democrats have expressed willingness to split with Pelosi and Schumer to work with Trump on his plan for border security if he opened up the government, which he’s now done.
