Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on Thursday apparently mistook one of the most prominent Democrats in the House as a Republican, and mocked him for taking a photo with a cardboard cutout of her in a tweet.

The freshman congresswoman shared a tweet by the Republican Party of Kentucky that featured the House Budget Committee Chairman John Yarmuth (D-KY) taking a photo next to a cardboard cutout of her.

Apparently not realizing who Yarmuth was, she mocked him by tweeting, “GOP: Let’s pose our older male members next to cardboard cutouts of young female legislators”:

After Twitter users began to point out her mistake, she deleted the tweet.

It is not the first time the 29-year-old Democrat has made an embarrassing gaffe on Twitter. She mixed up the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan just last month.

Ocasio-Cortez said recently on Yahoo’s Skullduggery podcast that she writes all her own tweets.

Her mistaking Yarmuth for an “older male” member of the Republican Party will likely not endear her to Democrat membership, who have increasingly made disparaging comments about her.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) recently said a “glass of water” with a “D next to its name” could have won Ocasio-Cortez’s district.

Sweden: Christian migrants repeatedly attacked by Muslim migrants fear civil war will break out in the country

By   

Today, around 120,000 Syriac Christians reside in Sweden. While many of them fled genocide in the Middle East, attacks against their churches and threats against their organisations are still not uncommon.

Following repeated threats, the Syriac National Federation in Sweden has stepped up security measures, from camera surveillance to its own security guards, the news outlet Samhällsnytt reported.

A recent Facebook post by the Syriac National Federation has detailed expletive-loaded threats it received from speakers of Arabic.

According to the federation’s spokesperson, this is not the first time such an incident has occurred. Most often, he said, the callers speak either Swedish with a thick Middle Eastern accent or even Arabic.

The police, however, chose not to investigate the matter, explaining that obscene language is not illegal.

“As soon as something happens in the Middle East or we are somehow visible in the media, we get these calls, so we are used to this.”

“At one point they say they will do the same to us in Sweden as they did in the Middle East. A genocide has been carried out in the Middle East against Christians. We have fled these groupings to Sweden, but they have caught up with us here”, the spokesperson said.

The Syriac National Federation has repeatedly turned to the authorities, but found no understanding, except among the Christian Democrats.

According to Samhällsnytt, there is a widespread feeling of resignation among Syriacs in Sweden amid concerns over the future of the rule of law and the state’s ability to protect people and prosecute crimes.

“We expect some fucking civil war between different groups unless someone puts their foot down. The people who did terrible acts in the Middle East, they are here now… and no one seems to care”, the spokesperson concluded.

Syriac churches in Sweden have witnessed a series of bomb and arson attacks, such as the Saint Afrem church in Södertälje and the Saint Mary church in Norrköping.

The incidents have caused strong reactions in the Syriac circles. While some argued that the time was ripe to leave Sweden if the state is unable to protect all its citizens, others suggested to get “a police force of our own” in the comments.

Tucker: Dem Candidates Are Sabotaging Their Own Chances to Defeat Trump

Even though Trump is failing to fulfill his key campaign promises Democrats are going so off the deep end they could actually end up securing his reelection. 

As Tucker Carlson highlighted in his monologue on Tuesday night, Democrats like Bernie Sanders are now endorsing allowing convicted felons to vote from behind bars.

Asked whether “convicted sex offenders” and people “on death row” like Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev should be allowed to vote, Sen. Kamala Harris told CNN’s Don Lemon, “I think we should have that conversation.” 

Tucker noted how such a rule could allow the inmates in maximum security Angola State Prison in West Feliciana Parish, Louisiana to be the “single largest bloc of voters in the area” and said once Bernie Sanders is president “they’ll be allowed to elect the City Council and Sheriff, maybe the Warden too.”

FEDS INDICT JUDGE FOR OBSTRUCTION AFTER ILLEGAL AVOIDS ICE ARREST

Twice-deported illegal was banned from entry into U.S. until 2027

Infowars.com – APRIL 25, 2019

A Massachusetts trial judge and a court official have been indicted by federal officials who say they conspired to keep immigration agents from arresting a twice-deported drug suspect banned from entering the U.S. until 2027.

U.S. Attorney Andrew E. Lelling accused the judge and official of preventing an ICE agent from detaining a drug suspect in April 2018, stating that both the judge and the suspect’s attorney were recorded discussing how to keep the suspect away from the agent.

The suspect, who was picked up by Newton police on drug charges, was deported in 2003 and 2007 and was not allowed to enter the U.S. again until 2027.

“…ICE is going to pick him up if he walks out the front door. But I think the best thing for us to do is clear the fugitive issue, release him on a personal [bond], and hope that he can avoid ICE… That’s the best I can do,” the attorney allegedly said on the court recording.

The judge reportedly responded, “ICE is gonna get him? What if we detain him?”

The suspect later avoided ICE after he was released without bail and escorted out by the court official who used his security card to open a rear exit door for him to leave, according to federal officials.

“This case is about the rule of law,” Lelling said. “The allegations in today’s indictment involve obstruction by a sitting judge, that is intentional interference with the enforcement of federal law, and that is a crime.”

“We cannot pick and choose the federal laws we follow, or use our personal views to justify violating the law. Everyone in the justice system — not just judges, but law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and defense counsel — should be held to a higher standard. The people of Massachusetts expect that, just like they expect judges to be fair, impartial, and to follow the law themselves.”

Three Suspected Illegal Aliens Arrested in Alleged Prostitution Ring Bust

By

Three illegal aliens living in Louisiana have been arrested and charged with various crimes after police busted what they believe to be a prostitution ring.

“St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched on April 17 to a home on Cherry Street in Slidell after receiving a report of a home invasion and attempted kidnapping,” according to WLL4. “The attempted kidnapping victim pointed deputies to three men sitting in a car outside the residence. She said one of the men, identified as 27-year-old Enrique Pacheco-Ayuso, entered the home armed with a gun and tried to force her into the vehicle.”

Police then turned their attention to the vehicle, occupied by three men, including Pacheco-Ayuso. They found cocaine and a firearm inside.

“Pacheco-Ayuso was arrested on multiple felony charges including attempted kidnapping,” the report said. “The other two occupants of the vehicle, 24-year-old Juan Zavala and 19-year-old Josadac Gomez-Bonilla, were arrested and booked on firearm and drug charges.”

After further investigation, victim of the attempted kidnapping, a 45-year-old woman named Tammy Faye, was involved in a prostitution ring with the Pacheco-Ayuso. She was arrested on human trafficking charges, and the same charges were levied against Pacheco-Ayuso on top of his previous charges.

According to the report, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is involved in the investigation, which means that the suspects are likely illegal aliens.

Despite the many violent crimes committed by illegals on American soil, the esteemed elected officials in Washington, D.C., have done little to close the United States’ wide open borders.

Big League Politics reported:

As illegal border crossings surge, Democrats blocked a meaningful amount of wall funding in the 2019 federal budget. President Donald J. Trump declared a National Emergency to address the issue, with plans to divert Department of Defense funding for the project, for which several heavily-blue states immediately sued his administration.

In addition to failing to deliver wall funding during 2017 and 2018, 12 Republican Senators voted against the president’s emergency wall funding, including Sens. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), and Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska).

Tuesday, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released a video showing human smugglers easily sneaking a woman and her child across the border in southern Arizona.

Former Vice President Joe Biden received the endorsement of three U.S. Senators shortly after announcing his 2020 presidential campaign on Thursday morning.

In a pair of statements, Sens. Chris Coons (D-DE) and Bob Casey (D-PA) were first to back the 76-year-old Biden’s bid.

“Joe Biden doesn’t just talk about making our county more just, he delivers results,” Coons said in an interview with the Associated Press.

Casey took to social media to announce his support, tweeting: “I am proud to endorse my friend, Joe Biden, for President.”

Further, Casey said in a statement to the Associated Press that “America needs” Biden to be president, contending: “At this make-or-break moment for the middle class, our children and our workers, America needs Vice President Joe Biden to be its next President.”

Sen. Doug Jones (D-AL) joined Coons and Casey in supporting Biden, saying in a statement that he believes the former vice president can “bring people together” and “find common ground while standing up for what he believes is right.”

In a video shared to social media, Biden, a native of Scranton, Pennsylvania, who served as a senator for Delaware for over three decades, announced Thursday that he would be entering an ever-crowded Democrat primary field for president.

“If we give Donald Trump eight years in the White House, he will forever and fundamentally alter the character of this nation — who we are — and I cannot stand by and watch that happen,” Biden claimed in his announcement video.

“Everything that has made America America is at stake,” he went on. “That’s why today I’m announcing my candidacy for president of the United States.”
