Inside John Hinckley Jr.’s failed attempt
to assassinate Ronald Reagan
Posted By: Imright, 3/21/2021 2:31:36 AM
When Ronald Reagan stepped out of the Washington, DC, Hilton on March 30, 1981, he still carried himself like the Hollywood star he once was: A big grin stretched across his face as he raised his hand high and waved to the crowd of journalists corralled behind a rope-like barrier.The new president had just finished speaking before AFL-CIO leaders, but the press was hoping to get a quote about rising tensions with Russia before Reagan stepped into his bulletproof limousine.Among the ranks was Associated Press reporter Michael Putzel. “I took a position near the right rear wheel of the limo,”

The Hill reports that Rep. Always On-Camera (D-New York) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Not An Actual Cherokee) have introduced a new bill that would “invest” $500 billion to “create” “green jobs.”Use of multiple scare quotes is intentional. Neither the race-hustling professor nor AOC know much about job creation, having never created any meaningful number of non-government jobs.Government “investing” necessarily entails government taxing, or government just printing more money, which neither the Democrats nor The Hill note. Those green jobs supposedly already exist anyway; why else would John Kerry tell the Keystone XL pipeline workers whose jobs his boss destroyed to go build solar panels?

Eight years ago, the Federal Trade Commission had the chance to face down Google — the giant of Silicon Valley whose power now alters the free flow of information at a global scale, distorts market access for businesses large and small, and changes the nature of independent thought in ways the world has never experienced.Instead, the FTC blinked — and blinked hard, choosing to close the investigation in early 2013. A remarkable leak to Politico of agency documents about the 2012 Google investigation reveals that, despite ample evidence of market distortions and threats to competition presented by the agency’s lawyers, the five commissioners of the FTC deferred instead
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Sens. Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz and Rand Paul, as well as South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Arkansas gubernatorial hopeful Sarah Huckabee Sanders.These are the people Donald Trump views as the future of the Republican Party, he revealed in a new interview Monday.Speaking on the debut episode of “The Lisa Boothe Show,” the 45th commander-in-chief made the remarks after being asked who he believed were the ones to watch in the next era of the Grand Old Party.“Well, I think we have a lot of people,
U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, had his hands full debating immigration policy with MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan, who was all but representing the Biden administration. According to the network, the White House “is attempting to solve the influx of migrants at the border.” This being the same influx they are largely responsible for.Their joust began on Twitter and, given that Crenshaw is a former U.S. Navy SEAL who did five tours of duty, he had no issue facing off with Hasan on national television.For his part, Hasan was quick to talk over the congressman, and their back and forth was hard to follow at times.
CNN Reporter Priscilla Alvarez said Monday that migrant children centers are “jail-like” and look similar to concrete “prison cells.”“Those are facilities that are not intended for them, they look like jail-like conditions, like prison cells with concrete walls and concrete benches, and these kids are spending more than the three-day limit than they’re supposed to according to federal law,” Alvarez said on CNN’s “New Day.” “The administration is racing here to find enough space for these kids that is suitable for them.”Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said March 16 that the number of apprehensions at the southern border is on pace to reach a 20-year high,
Fox News contributor Lisa Marie Boothe is interviewing former President Donald Trump to launch her new podcast, she told the Daily Caller.Boothe announced her iHeartRadio podcast “The Truth with Lisa Boothe” earlier in March. The podcast plans to “cut through the noise and get straight to the heart of what actually matters,” and its very first episode features an exclusive, lengthy interview with Trump – one of the few interviews he’s done since leaving office.“I don’t think we’ve had a president that the media has lied about more … than President Trump,” Boothe told the Caller.
Multinational corporate executives, who often serve as the biggest donors for the nation’s political class, are the driving forces behind an amnesty plan passed by House Democrats and nine House Republicans.Last week, the House passed H.R. 6, known as the “Dream and Promise Act of 2021,” to provide potentially 4.4 million illegal aliens with amnesty and put them on a track for American citizenship. All 218 House Democrats voted to support the amnesty and nine House Republicans joined them, including: (List of 9 Republicans)

Photos from inside a US Customs and Border Protection overflow facility have leaked, revealing hundreds of children huddling on the floor of eight 'pods' - each of which are supposed to hold 260 people - yet one of which had over 400 unaccompanied male minors crammed together, according to Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), who provided the photos to Axios to raise awareness about the situation. (Photo) The photos, taken over the weekend by someone else, come amid a media embargo by the Biden administration, which has refused to allow press into the facilities to observe and document what's going on.(Photos) Cueller, who toured the Donna, Texas facility

The wife of a decorated combat veteran who was inside the Capitol suffered a miscarriage one day after the FBI raided their home.Christopher Kuehne maintains that he had travelled to the Capitol to protect Trump supporting civilians from Antifa. Inside the Capitol, he was seen on video cleaning up trash before, he says, he helped to clear people out so police could get control of the situation.In the early morning of February 11, Kuehne, his pregnant wife Annette, and their four-year-old child were awakened to sirens, cell phone rings, and bursts of colorful lights reflecting through their windows.
In an interview with Steve Malzberg on his weekly Sunday commentary show Eat the Press, progressive feminist author and former Democrat adviser Dr. Naomi Wolf expressed alarm regarding President Joe Biden’s current state of health and its implications for U.S. national security.
Addressing Biden’s health, Wolf stated that “as Americans, we would be remiss not to notice that this is a man who is struggling physically, and our national security kind of depends on our being grown-ups.” She said, “when a very elderly president is struggling physically, it’s an important national security concern” that all should be able to discuss “without partisanship.”
There’s only one thing not open on the southern border: media access to the operations of Customs and Border Protection. In a totalitarian effort at hiding the truth, the Biden administration has blocked the press.Veteran photojournalist John Moore raised the alarm on Twitter over the weekend: “I respectfully ask US Customs and Border Protection to stop blocking media access to their border operations,” he wrote. “I have photographed CBP under Bush, Obama and Trump but now — zero access is granted to media. These long-lens images taken from the Mexican side.”That’s right: He had to cross the border himself to shoot unrestricted.

No, I hadn't see this news item late last week, about George Bush suddenly not "owing" another president his "silence," in his string of lip-curdling insults directed at President Trump. Guess I don't view him as worth watching much. But sure enough, he had plenty of hateful things to say about President Trump for the left-wing media, and he's the smaller for it.
Here were his three worst whoppers, as cited by Business Insider:
In an interview with the Texas Tribune's Evan Smith, Bush described how watching the January 6 attack "really disturbed" him, both then and now.
Videos of Joe Biden appearing dazed and confused aren’t exactly rare these days, but this latest example is fairly stark. He’s clearly not mentally well and has a hard time performing the basic duties of the office (including have much of any real interaction with the press).Here’s the video in which Biden looks like he forgets where he’s at and/or what he’s supposed to be doing.(Tweet/Video) At the beginning, he seems to be greeting people in his typical robotic fashion but then tries to just wander off.

A women’s magazine that tends to approach issues from a more conservative, common-sense stance accidentally embraced some liberal thinking this week. Whoops!In an almost-ratioed tweet posted Saturday, Evie Magazine called for normalizing the slapping of men “when they’ve crossed the line,” whatever that means.Look at the tweet below: (Tweet) What in the name of liberal feminists was THAT!?The tweet provoked a spate of angry replies from incensed men. Look: (Tweets) The problem, besides Evie Magazine’s promotion of violence, is that there is no shared definition of what it means to cross the line.When now-deceased former President George H.W. Bush, then 90 years old and wheelchair-bound,
Publishing company Simon & Schuster recently revealed the cover to their upcoming children’s book about Dr. Anthony Fauci.The book, titled “Dr. Fauci: How A Boy From Brooklyn Became America’s Doctor,” is written by Kate Messner and illustrated by Alexandra Bye. The book can be pre-ordered ahead of its June 29 release.CNN host Brian Stelter teased the forthcoming book on Sunday’s episode of “Reliable Sources,” the clip of which Messner tweeted.
WATCH: Exciting morning here – @CNN's @brianstelter just revealed the cover for DR: FAUCI:
A Department of Justice prosecutor believes that former President Donald Trump could be charged for his alleged role in the Capitol riots. The DOJ federal prosecutor, Michael Sherwin, made the bombshell assertion on 60 Minutes on Sunday.“Has the role of former President Trump been part of your investigation?” Pelley asked. (Tweet/Video) “It’s unequivocal that Trump was the magnet that brought the people to D.C. on the 6th,” replied Sherwin, making a spurious argument.So does that mean that Trump is “criminally culpable for everything that happened during the siege, during the breach?” Pelley asked.
One year ago today, an article of mine at American Thinker became a flashpoint of mainstream media coverage and criticism. Before one week had passed, my article was referenced, including with links to it and me in four major articles at the Washington Post, two in the New York Times... Politico, Vanity Fair, Buzzfeed, New York Magazine, and others. (snip) The reason for all this fuss was that I was the first one in the national media to challenge the media-driven image of Dr. Anthony Fauci as a sage and a savior, a man whose commands to shut down the nation must be obeyed
Corporate media is lauding Leyna Bloom, the first black and Asian transgender to model in Sports Illustrated’s annual Swimsuit Issue.
“Leyna is legendary in the world of activism, strikingly gorgeous, and has an undeniable sense of self that shines through the minute she walks on set” MJ Day, editor at Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, wrote in an Instagram caption. “Her story represents one grounded in resilience and we couldn’t be more thrilled to help her tell it,” Day continued. “Her presence as the first trans woman of color to be in our issue is a result of her lifetime dedication to forging her own path

Wet A** P*ssy is “the defining song of 2020” according to so-called critics/journalists who make a living fawning over this crap. WAP debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 100. For weeks it squatted atop the charts like a sweaty naked fat woman on a toilet.
In “the raunchiest set the Grammy’s have ever seen” that annual television info-award-mercial featured a live performance of WAP. Incompetently acclaimed and shamelessly promoted by those same so-called critics/journalists, the spectacle held all the artistry of a Mexican border town donkey show.
Biden felt three times as he scaled the stairs to Air Force One at Joint Base Andrews.
Biden tried jogging up the stairs to board Air Force One en route to Atlanta and fell hard on his knee.
When he arrived in Atlanta, he visited the Atlanta headquarters of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to thank public health workers amid the coronavirus pandemic and claimed that “science is back”, though he did not state where or how the science went missing.
Biden wrapped up his pep talk to the agency with a lengthy anecdote about meeting with then-VP Xi Jinping.
A McKinney man accused of storming the U.S. Capitol was given away by his mobile phone, which placed him at the scene, giving agents clues they needed to identify and arrest him, federal court records show.
Kevin Sam Blakely, 55, was captured in video footage standing inside and outside of the Capitol building during the Jan. 6 uprising and riot, according to an FBI complaint.
Google location data has helped the FBI make numerous arrests of other alleged rioters across the country.
Department of Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Sunday the Biden administration would release video “footage” of the conditions of the inside of migrant detention facilities to assuage concerns amid its continued refusal to allow members of the press inside.
“Let’s not forget that we’re in the midst of a pandemic and we are focused on our operations, executing our operations in a crowded border patrol facility where hundreds of vulnerable migrant children are located,” Mayorkas said.
