Barack Obama on Saturday campaigned in Detroit, Michigan for Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

The Democrats are so desperate that they dragged out Obama (not Biden) to campaign for Whitmer with less than two weeks to go until Election Day.

Whitmer is in hot water for closing schools down for a prolonged period of time during the Covid pandemic.

She’s so desperate that she invited Barack Obama to stump for her at the last minute.

A heckler interrupted Obama and left him stuttering.

“Yes! So, so, sir, wa-wa-wait, come on! But, this is, this is what I mean,” Obama said to the heckler. “We’ve got a process that we set up in our democracy.”

Thin-skinned Obama lashed out at the heckler and lectured him on ‘basic civility.’

“Right now, I’m talking. You’ll have a chance to talk sometime later. You wouldn’t do that in a workplace,” Obama said.

Obama began shouting, “Hold up! Hold up! Hold up!”

Hillary Clinton joined the chorus of Democrats blaming Republicans for the attack on Paul Pelosi, the 82-year-old husband of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). Paul Pelosi was attacked at the couple’s San Francisco home early Friday morning while Nancy Pelosi was reportedly in Washington, D.C. Details about the attack are sketchy, but a narrative has been born to blame Republicans based on reports the alleged attacker was yelling, “Where is Nancy?”

Clinton commented on Twitter about a Los Angeles Times article that sought to portray the alleged attacker, 42-year-old David DePape, as a believer in right-leaning conspiracy theories:

“The Republican Party and its mouthpieces now regularly spread hate and deranged conspiracy theories. It is shocking, but not surprising, that violence is the result. As citizens, we must hold them accountable for their words and the actions that follow.”

Hillary Clinton financed and spread the deranged conspiracy theory that Donald Trump was a Russian agent who stole the 2016 presidential election from her while he watched Russian hookers pee on a hotel bed in Moscow that was slept on by Barack Obama.

Clinton is still spreading conspiracy theories, recently appearing in a video in which she accused Republicans of plotting to steal the 2024 elections.

*taps microphone* And now an important message from Secretary @HillaryClinton!

We’re all focused on winning the midterms and defending our congressional majorities. That’s critical. But we also must take the fight to MAGA Republicans at the state level: https://t.co/3JDygMc5T2 pic.twitter.com/HPNSvnqZsK

Clinton’s accusation of blaming Republicans for the attack on Paul Pelosi followed Joe Biden in blaming Republicans for the attack. Biden said in Philadelphia Friday night:

“This is despicable. There’s no place in America–there’s too much violence, political violence, too much hatred, too much vitriol. And what makes us think that one party can talk about stolen elections, COVID being a hoax? That it’s all a bunch of lies and not affect people who may not be so well-balanced. What makes us think! That it’s not it’s not going to corrode the political climate?”

Also on Saturday, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) blamed President Trump for the attack on Paul Pelosi, “Trump is responsible for hundreds of thousands of Covid deaths,the violence of January 6 and the attack on Paul Pelosi. He is a clear and present danger to our Constitution . A cancer on our body politic.. He must be held accountable! NOW! “Before it’s too late.””

Former NBA star Matt Barnes said in no uncertain terms in an interview last week that he thinks transgender athletes should not play in whatever league they identify with. Anyone born a man should play men’s sports and anyone born a woman should play women’s sports, Barnes said.

In an interview on Oct. 21 with VladTV, Barnes said that he does not care what people do in their personal lives, but when it comes to sports, everyone should be playing according to their actual sex.

“I don’t like that,” Barnes said when asked what he thought about transgender players possibly playing in the WNBA.

“To each his own. You want to be whatever you want to be, but if you’re born a certain you should play it. Whatever you’re born, to me, I feel like you should play in that space. To me, you that the swimmer and all this kind of stuff, and again, I’m pro-make your choice, do you, do this, but you know, sports is different. Sports is a different beast,” Barnes said.

“To me, I don’t like that. If you’re born a woman I think you should play in women’s sports. And if you’re born a man, you should play man’s sports,” the former NBA player added.

Barnes said that he is supportive of people doing whatever they want in their personal life.

“I just think the sports thing is just a little different,” he said.

The interviewer posed a scenario of NBA star Kevin Durant putting on a wig and playing in the WNBA. Durant would dominate, the interviewer and Barnes noted.

“It would change the whole dynamic of the game … to each his own and respect whatever personal decisions you want to make, but when it comes to sports, I think crossing that line is a line that shouldn’t be crossed,” Barnes said.

The issue of transgender athletes in sports has become an increasingly spotlighted issue, particularly after the controversy over the University of Pennsylvania swimmer, Lia Thomas, who transitioned to a woman and began swimming for the female team, according to ESPN.

Some of Barnes’ comments even addressed the issue surrounding Thomas, since that has been such a landmark example.

Though Thomas won a championship for the women’s swim team, Barnes commented how Thomas, who competed for years as a man, was “very average on the men’s side.”

Barnes’ blunt comments on the issue have stirred a lot of commentary on Twitter, with some calling him transphobic and others agreeing with him and saying that sports need to be protected.

“Vast majority of men who are extremely triggered by trans athletes dont even watch the WNBA. So if it doesnt affect you then why do you care…??? Maybe channel that passion into WNBA fandom instead of transphobic anger over a hypothetical situation that probably wont ever occur,” one user critically commented in response to Barnes’ thoughts.

Other users, though, pointed out that the whole issue has the potential to hurt women’s sports in particular.

“They shouldn’t play in the NBA bcus they are genetically a man. Which means they are still stronger than a women who plays that sport. It’s not fair for women who were actually born a women. It’s just not,” one user posted.

Barnes has not made any further comments on the issue.

Barnes played in the NBA for 14 years, from 2003 to 2017, according to Basketball Reference.

He moved around the league quite a bit and played for nine different franchises during his career: the Los Angeles Clippers, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, Sacramento Kings, Orlando Magic, Phoenix Suns, Memphis Grizzlies, Philadelphia 76ers and the New York Knicks.

As crime spikes in Democrat run cities across America, law enforcement officials warn that they can’t keep us safe.

National Police Association Spokesperson Sgt. Betsy Brantner Smith, LAPD Detective Jamie McBride and former Chicago police officer Anthony Napolitano joined Fox & Friends on Thursday to weigh in on what is behind the growing departure of police officers throughout the nation.

Fox News shares:

Law enforcement agencies are sounding the alarm on the consequences of a dramatic increase in police resignations and retirements since 2020, leaving America’s streets less protected as crime rocks the country.

National Police Association spokesperson Sgt. Betsy Brantner Smith, LAPD Detective Jamie McBride and former Chicago police officer Anthony Napolitano joined “Fox & Friends First” Friday to weigh in on what they called a “crisis.”

“We can’t get new people to this profession because law enforcement has been lied about,” Sgt. Betsy Brantner Smith warned.

According to a report from the Police Executive Research Forum, police resignations are up 18% with retirements up 45%.

Meanwhile, crime in major cities continues to rise. According to police department data, Chicago has seen a 39% increase in crime, Philadelphia 24.3%, New York City 21.1%. and Los Angeles 8.7% year-over-year.

LAPD Detective Jamie McBride shared concern over his city as fewer officers means a decreased ability to serve the community.

“It’s not safe here,” McBride warned. “I’ve been telling people for over a year, do not come to Los Angeles. We cannot keep you safe.”

Police officers have been under constant attack led by the left’s Defund the Police movement, which receives millions from George Soros,  and understandably may be hesitant to continue to put their lives on the line.

It’s almost like there are consequences to vilifying an entire group of people to push a left-wing agenda.

The incident at the Pelosi house on early Friday morning is still puzzling at best.  There now are more questions than answers. 

The police didn’t share how David DePape entered the house in their first press conference.  They did mention that they charged him with burglary but that was it.

In the second San Francisco Police Department press conference on the matter on Friday, the police provided more information.  The police shared:

I can confirm that Mr. DePape forced entry into a rear door at the rear of the Pelosi home.”

Second SFPD Press Conference Offers More Details on Paul Pelosi Attack: Paul Pelosi Called 911, Assailant Is Still in Hospital, DePape Entered Rear Door

This doesn’t add up.  

For one, if an individual broke into the home of the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, there surely is a surveillance system that would tell the police and numerous entities that the house had been broken into.  There’s no doubt that the Pelosis home has a security system.  This system likely includes motion detectors as well.  Any movement near the house or broken glass would immediately be registered at the surveillance company.  They in turn would notify the police of the encounter.  Also, there are likely police cars circling the neighborhood where the Pelosis live.  But the police reported that Paul Pelosi made the call to the police.  Paul Pelosi never shared that the home was broken into.

There are also questions about this event being a burglary.  DePape reportedly forced entry into a rear door.  But a video from yesterday shows that there was glass on the outside of the home on the stairs behind the house.  If the window was broken from the outside, wouldn’t the glass be on the floor on the inside of the house?

A video on Friday reportedly showed the house with broken glass outside on the stairs behind the house.

Surely there is video footage of this window being broken, yes?

If the glass window was broken from inside the house wouldn’t the glass be on the outside of the house?

When glass breaks, can you tell the difference between whether it was broken from the outside of the window vs inside the house?

— Cernovich (@Cernovich) October 29, 2022

Additionally, it’s been reported that DePape was in his underwear when the police arrived.  This means that he most probably took off his clothes inside the house.  This is because anyone walking around in that neighborhood in their underwear would immediately be arrested.  This is not something that someone could do in that neighborhood.  Also, why did Paul Pelosi refer to him as a friend on the phone?

Also, if it was a burglary, what did Depape steal?  Is there any evidence that he had things in his possession that he was stealing when the police arrived?  Not that we know of.  Was he hiding something in his underwear?

It also sounds like someone else let the police into the home.  Who was this?  Why did this person not call the police when the house was supposedly broken into?  Was there more than one other person in the home?

Finally, what injuries did DePape incur?  He too was sent to the hospital and in the first press release the police mentioned that they worked on his injuries before sending him to the hospital along with Paul Pelosi.

The one thing the police can do to clear this all up is release the police and surveillance camera videos.  This would likely answer most of these questions. 

Unfortunately, when police aren’t sharing the entire story, there are problems with the story.  This is most likely the case.

Republican lawmakers have introduced the “Concerned Citizens Bill of Rights Act” to increase transparency regarding crime reporting and to incentivize state and local governments to roll back cashless bail and other soft-on-crime policies.

The legislation would block Justice Department grants from going to jurisdictions that have abolished cash bail.

It would also require states and localities to report crime data to the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) and report policies that result in nonenforcement and/or nonprosecution of crime.

Many heavily funded far-left district attorneys have been adopting extremely soft on crime policies in the wake of the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots that called for defunding of police and being nicer to criminals. This has led to a severe uptick in crime across the nation.

The bill was introduced in the House by Rep. Jim Banks and will have an identical bill put forward in the senate by Sen. Roger Marshall.

“Cities across the nation are now plagued by violent crime because far-left officials refuse to uphold the rule of law. Every American deserves to live in a community where they feel safe and our legislation will ensure the federal government is not subsidizing and enabling the Democrats’ radical, lawless agenda,” said Rep. Banks in a statement.

Sen. Marshall shared a similar sentiment.

“Violence and disorder are sweeping the nation under President Joe Biden’s leadership. Kansans’ have seen the devastating consequences of the left’s soft on crime attitude and do not want that coming to our state” said Sen. Marshall in a statement.

“As the son of a police chief, who taught me to respect those who keep us safe, the coddling of criminals and demonization of our brave law enforcement officers is personal for me. It has gone on long enough,” Senator Marshall continued. “No Federal funds should be given to jurisdictions that push failed policies like recklessly ending cash-bail or illogically barring judges from considering a defendant’s criminal history. Americans deserve to be safe and they deserve a government that prioritizes that safety above whatever progressive agenda is being hailed by woke radicals on the internet.”

Marshall noted that “in 2020, police in Philadelphia were instructed to no longer arrest person for various crimes, included any narcotic offence, burglary, and most thefts. The following year, 2021, Philadelphia set a new all-time city high homicide record.”

Additionally, “New York City eliminated cash bail options for most crimes in 2020 and New York prevents judges from taking account the dangerousness of a defendant when making pretrial detentions decisions. During the first months of 2022, major crime was up 41%.”

“In January of 2023, the Safe-T Act goes fully in effect in Illinois which ends cash bail for most crimes included arson and second-degree murder.”

Former Real Housewives of Orange County star Alexis Bellino has announced that her 14-year-old child is “transgender.”

Bellino now refers to her biological female child as her “son” Miles.

“Hey world, this is Miles. My transgender son,” Bellino wrote on Instagram. “He’s now a month shy of 15 yrs old, so he’s seen the questions and comments made about him on my IG. Miles now has a voice and has asked me to do this post.”

The former reality television show star continued, “I had stopped posting for the past few months due to this transition in Miles’ life, but he’s now ready to ‘come out’ and to use this platform to stop any hate or questions. I refused to post this for him for a while, but now I know Miles truly wants this because he’s tired of the misgendering and confusion people have, so we are setting the record straight and hopefully bringing clarity.”

Bellino continued on to write that she “imagine the strength and courage it took for my baby to do this, but I’m extremely proud of him and I want everyone to understand that love doesn’t change in these situations.” She claimed that the child had hidden their gender from everyone “for a while,” but came out to her 16 months ago.

“I’m so proud of Miles for wanting to stop the hate, and for being brave enough to step forward at such a young age,” Bellino wrote. “He now has his entire life to live the way he should. FYI all hate on my social media will be immediately deleted and that user instantly blocked. Let’s bring peace and happiness and unity from this. We are all human and we are ALL equal. I am 100% fully supportive of my son. I hope you will be too. I love you all. Thank you for supporting me and my family through all of our many transitions through the years. This world needs more love and kindness.”

Bellino joined RHOC for season 5 in 2009, and left by 2013.

Kari Lake has issued a statement hilariously thanking outgoing Rep. Liz Cheney for not endorsing her.

Cheney, being the perpetual narcissist she is, released an ad in Arizona on Friday where she took aim at Lake, saying “we cannot give people power who will not honor elections.”

Lake is currently running against Democrat Katie Hobbs for Arizona governor.

“I don’t know that I have ever voted for a Democrat. But if I lived in Arizona, I absolutely would. You have a candidate for governor, Kari Lake, you have a candidate for secretary of State, Mark Finchem, both of whom have said that they will only honor the results of an election if they agree with it,” Cheney said in the ad.

Naturally, being as hated as she is, the ad had the opposite effect of what she intended.

Thank you, @Liz_Cheney. pic.twitter.com/rW5Qevwwf5

— Kari Lake (@KariLake) October 29, 2022

In a letter posted to Twitter, Lake said that her donations are “skyrocketing” after the ad was released — and that her campaign website was so overwhelmed with traffic that it almost crashed.

“Our campaign donations are skyrocketing and our website nearly crashed from traffic as people rushed to learn more about my plan to put Arizona First and join our historic movement,” Lake said in the letter.

Lake said her campaign raised $300,000 on Friday alone, prompting her to call Cheney her “biggest fundraiser yet.”

“In fact, my team tells me your commercial should add another 10 points to our lead! I guess that’s why they call the Cheney anti-endorsement the gift that keeps on giving,” Lake wrote.

“Thank you again for the huge boost to our campaign. Enjoy your forced retirement from politics,” Lake added, referring to her massive primary loss. “I know America will rest easier knowing that one more warmonger is out of office.”

Lake is currently enjoying a strong lead in the polls, beating Hobbs by 11 percentage points.

As reported earlier, according to sources close to the investigation, Paul Pelosi’s attacker is 42-year-old Berkeley resident David DePape, The San Francisco Standard reported.

San Francisco police chief William Scott said DePape was booked on charges of attempted homicide, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse, burglary and “several additional felonies.”

Paul Pelosi, husband of Nancy Pelosi was violently attacked with a hammer in his San Francisco home early Friday morning.

According to NBC News, Paul Pelosi was taken to Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital where he underwent brain surgery.

Mr. Pelosi is reportedly in stable condition.

Both men were hospitalized.

The attack reportedly took place after 2:25 AM.

And David DePape was in his underwear when the police arrived.

The San Francisco police thus far have released few details on the incident. And the details they have reported have had to be corrected.

We know now there was only one hammer, not two.

We know now the dispatch officer said “David” was a friend.

This Is Interesting: San Francisco Police Dispatcher Describes “David” as “a Friend” in Pelosi House Call (AUDIO)

During the second press conference Chief Scott provided new information on the Pelosi home attack.

** According to Chief Scott, the police officers arrived at the front door of the Pelosi home. The door was opened “by someone inside.”

** When the front door was opened the police witnessed Paul Pelosi and Depape fighting over a hammer. DePape took control of the hammer and allegedly attacked Paul Pelosi. DePape hit Pelosi “at least one time” in the head. The police tackled the assailant.

** According to Chief Scott, David DePape forced himself into the rear door.

** David DePape is still in the hospital.

** This was not a random act. “This was intentional.”

We know the police said someone opened the front door.

Why was glass broken from the inside out on the back porch?

We do not know if David DePape entered the home in his underwear – BUT IT IS UNLIKELY.

We do not know if 82-year-old Paul Pelosi has a caretaker in the home. If not, why?

We know DePape is homeless and a drug addict from Berkeley.

We do not know anything about David DePape’s motives.

The fact that police have not released many details is very suspect.

It is imperative that David DePape make it through to trial so he can tell his side of the story.

What really happened at the Pelosi home?

The post At This Point It Is Extremely Important that David DePape Stays Alive – To Tell His Story appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.

MSNBC host Tiffany Cross on Saturday discussed the violent attack on Paul Pelosi and somehow made it about Donald Trump.

42-year-old David Depape attacked Paul Pelosi with a hammer in his San Francisco home early Friday morning.

But the details about the attack are still unclear.

Here’s what we know so far:

Depape, a Berkeley resident, was in his underwear when police arrived Friday morning.
An unknown mystery person may have let police in through the front door.
Pelosi was reportedly holding a hammer that was wrestled away from him by Depape.
Both men were hospitalized.
A San Francisco police dispatcher described Depape as a “friend” in his call about the Pelosi attack.

Tiffany Cross said the attack on Pelosi by a far-left nudist is part of an effort to normalize political violence “to make Trumpers feel at home.”

The political violence is coming from the left.

Here is a partial list of violent and deadly politically motivated attacks by leftists:

In June 2017, far left Bernie Sanders supporter James Hodgkinson shot 5 people at a baseball field, including Republican lawmaker Steve Scalise.

Far-left Antifa thug Eric Clanton almost killed a Trump supporter when he beat him over the head with a bike lock in 2017.

Last month 18-year-old Cayler Ellingson was struck and killed by a vehicle driven by 41-year-old Shannon Brandt in a politically motivated murder in North Dakota.

In October 2020, a far-left ‘private security guard’ for 9News shot and killed a Trump supporter during dueling rallies in Denver.

Matthew Dolloff was taken into custody and charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of Lee Keltner.

Dolloff pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder and the Denver District DA’s office dropped the charges in March.

Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) suffered six broken ribs and a pleural effusion after he was ambushed and assaulted by a neighbor at his Kentucky home in November of 2017.

The attacker, Rene Boucher, a 59-year-old retired anesthesiologist, was charged with fourth-degree assault.

Senator Paul had part of his lung removed last August due to damage from the politically motivated assault by his neighbor.

Far-left Antifa terrorists have violently attacked conservatives in cities across the US for years while Soros DAs refuse to bring charges.
