Michael Flynn Judge Asks Full D.C. Circuit to Rehear His Case Against Immediate Dismissal of Prosecution

Michael Flynn Judge Asks Full D.C. Circuit to Rehear His Case Against Immediate Dismissal of Prosecution. Who owns this judge? Has he sold out to someone?

U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, through his counsel Beth Wilkinson, has asked for U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to rehear his case against the immediate dismissal of Michael Flynn prosecution.

The petition for rehearing comes after a three-judge panel on the D.C. Circuit granted Flynn’s petition for writ a mandamus on June 24, directing Sullivan to dismiss the case.

Supreme Court allows religious exemption for employers opposed to contraceptives. Buy your own condoms.

The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 Wednesday that nonprofit employers with religious or moral objections do not have to help provide insurance coverage for contraceptives.

The ruling brings to a close a longstanding battle by the Little Sisters of the Poor and other religious groups that wanted nothing to do with providing birth control coverage. The court’s decision upholds a Trump administration policy allowing for both religious and moral exemptions.

Company tied to Newsom received up to $350K in COVID-19 relief funds

Company tied to Newsom received up to $350K in COVID-19 relief funds. Along with a company owned by the Lt. Governor (D), Senate Minority Leader Shannon Grove (R), the spouse of state Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins, D-San Diego. It’s amazing how well this works for powerful politicians.

Businesses tied to California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis and two of the state’s legislative leaders were among those that received federal loans aimed at keeping small businesses afloat during the coronavirus pandemic, records released Monday showed.

A Northern California winery and hospitality company, PlumpJack, founded and partly owned by Newsom, received a loan worth $150,000 to $350,000 from the Paycheck Protection Program, according to data released by the U.S. Treasury Department.

SEVP modifies temporary exemptions for nonimmigrant students taking online courses during fall 2020 semester

SEVP modifies temporary exemptions for nonimmigrant students taking online courses during fall 2020 semester. The Ice Man sayeth, if you’re taking online classes you can go home.

Nonimmigrant F-1 and M-1 students attending schools operating entirely online may not take a full online course load and remain in the United States. The U.S. Department of State will not issue visas to students enrolled in schools and/or programs that are fully online for the fall semester nor will U.S. Customs and Border Protection permit these students to enter the United States. Active students currently in the United States enrolled in such programs must depart the country or take other measures, such as transferring to a school with in-person instruction to remain in lawful status. If not, they may face immigration consequences including, but not limited to, the initiation of removal proceedings.

HUGE: MASSIVE CDC FRAUD UNCOVERED – CDC Grossly Overcounting Active China Coronavirus Cases Causing States to Keep Their Economies Closed Indefinitely

HUGE: MASSIVE CDC FRAUD UNCOVERED – CDC Grossly Overcounting Active China Coronavirus Cases Causing States to Keep Their Economies Closed Indefinitely. What they’re really doing is enabling tin-pot dictators like Gavin Newsom to keep states closed so they have an excuse to promote vote-by-mail-fraud.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is conflating the results of two different types of coronavirus tests, distorting several important metrics and providing the country with an inaccurate picture of the state of the pandemic. We’ve learned that the CDC is making, at best, a debilitating mistake: combining test results that diagnose current coronavirus infections with test results that measure whether someone has ever had the virus. The upshot is that the government’s disease-fighting agency is overstating the country’s ability to test people who are sick with COVID-19. The agency confirmed to The Atlantic on Wednesday that it is mixing the results of viral and antibody tests, even though the two tests reveal different information and are used for different reasons.

This is not merely a technical error. States have set quantitative guidelines for reopening their economies based on these flawed data points.

Little evidence that protests following George Floyd’s death spread coronavirus in US

Little evidence that protests following George Floyd’s death spread coronavirus in US. But don’t go to the beach or the bar on July 4th weekend or you’ll get it. More proof this is being used to curtail the public.

There is little evidence that the protests that erupted after George Floyd’s death caused a significant increase in U.S. coronavirus infections, according to public health experts.

If the protests had driven an explosion in cases, experts say, the jumps would have started to become apparent within two weeks — and perhaps as early as five days. But that didn’t happen in many cities with the largest protests, including New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, and Washington, D.C.

In what’s considered the first systematic look at the question, a team of economists determined that only one of 13 cities involved in the earliest wave of protests after Memorial Day had an increase that would fit the pattern.

Federal agents take Toledo city council members into custody amid bribery probe

Federal agents take Toledo city council members into custody amid bribery probe. Holy Toledo!

The FBI has arrested multiple Toledo city council members accused of taking cash in exchange for votes during what is described in court records as a years-long, sweeping bribery scandal involving some of the city’s highest elected officials.

City council members Tyrone Riley, Yvonne Harper, Larry Sykes, and Gary Johnson are all charged in federal court with accepting bribe payments for official acts and extortion, according to criminal complaints filed Tuesday. Keith Mitchell, an attorney who is accused of funneling bribes to Ms. Harper, also faces bribery and extortion charges. Ms. Harper is charged as well with interstate communications with intent to extort.

Seattle mayor slams protesters for showing no ‘regard for’ her ‘safety’ as demonstrators circle her home

Seattle mayor slams protesters for showing no ‘regard for’ her ‘safety’ as demonstrators circle her home. Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan is the zero self-awareness moron of the century.

Biden Campaign Asks Facebook To Censor President Trump’s Posts

Biden Campaign Asks Facebook To Censor President Trump’s Posts. Campaign Manager Jen O’Malley Dillon should spend more time getting Basement Biden out in the sunlight.

Former Fox News Reporter Rams Dagger into Heart of Taliban-Russia Story Used to Attack Trump

Former Fox News Reporter Rams Dagger into Heart of Taliban-Russia Story Used to Attack Trump. Yes, but the MSM continues to promote this BS.

Well, as it turns out the president was never briefed. Why? Well, as CBS News’ Catherine Herridge, formerly of Fox News, pointed out, “An intelligence official with direct knowledge tells CBS News there was an intel collection report and “NSA assesses Report does not match well established and verifiable Taliban and Haqqani practices” + “lack sufficient reporting to corroborate any links.”

Oh, it gets better. She added, “The official said the intelligence collection report reached ‘low levels’ NSC but did not go further, not briefed POTUS, or VP because it was deemed ‘uncorroborated’ and ‘dissent intelligence community.’”

Supreme Court strikes down state ban on taxpayer funding for religious schools

Supreme Court strikes down state ban on taxpayer funding for religious schools. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts gets one right for a change.

In the 5-4 ruling, authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, the court essentially backed a Montana tax-credit scholarship program that gave residents up to a $150 credit for donating to private scholarship organizations, helping students pay for their choice of private schools. The state’s revenue department made a rule banning those tax-credit scholarships from going to religious schools before the state’s supreme court later struck down the entire program.

“A State need not subsidize private education. But once a State decides to do so, it cannot disqualify some private schools solely because they are religious,” Roberts wrote in the court’s opinion.
