Democrats Announce Plan to Hold William Barr in Contempt
By Sean Moran
The Democrat-controlled House Judiciary Committee announced Monday a plan to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt for handing over special counsel Robert Mueller’s unredacted report and its underlying evidence.
The committee announced it will consider a contempt citation against Barr on Wednesday; a majority vote for the resolution by the committee would send the measure to the House for consideration later in May.
Nadler launched its own investigation into potential allegations that President Donald Trump obstructed charges based on “public corruption and other abuses of power” by Trump.
House Judiciary Committee ranking member Doug Collins (R-GA) slammed Democrats’ cynical move to subpoena the unredacted Mueller, contending that complying with the subpoena would break the law.
“Democrats have launched a proxy war smearing the attorney general when their anger actually lies with the president and the special counsel, who found neither conspiracy nor obstruction,” Collins said in a statement Monday.
The Democrats’ citation reads:
Congress is therefore the only body able to hold the president to account for improper conduct in our tripartite system, and urgently requires the subpoenaed material to determine whether and how to proceed with its constitutional duty to provide checks and balances on the president and executive branch. Otherwise, the president remains insulated from legal consequences and sits above the law.
Barr skipped a House Democrat hearing last week after the attorney general objected to allowing committee lawyers to question Barr. The Democrats also want to enter a closed hearing where they could discuss redacted information in Mueller’s report.
Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) called Barr “chicken” for not showing up the House hearing last week and even brought a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) to the hearing.
“Chicken Barr should have shown up today and answered questions,” Cohen said.
Pelosi fears Trump may borrow page from Democratic playbook by challenging 2020 election legitimacy
Speaker Nancy Pelosi has warned her fellow Democrats that Donald Trump may question the legitimacy of the 2020 election if he loses by a slim margin – a cowardly political tactic not seen since the Democrats lost in 2016.
In an interview with the New York Times, the house speaker and de facto head of the Democratic Party envisioned a nightmare scenario in which Trump would attempt to “poison the public mind” instead of accepting a Democratic presidential victory in next year’s election.
According to Pelosi, the solution to this terrible conundrum is for the Democrats to abandon all ideas of impeachment and nominate a moderate who won’t rock the boat. Only then, Pelosi mused, will the Democrats be able to crush Trump by such a huge margin that he will never be able to fabricate salacious tales of foreign blackmail and be taken seriously.
Her pearl-clutching faced considerable scrutiny from the Twitterati, who pointed out that Pelosi’s party has spent the last two years questioning the legitimacy of the president, after Hillary Clinton refused to accept responsibility for her humiliating defeat in 2016.

“This is rich. In 2016 Democrats said Trump would challenge the legitimacy of the election. Then they spent two years challenging the legitimacy of the election. Now, with 2020 approaching, Nancy Pelosi is trying the same thing again,” noted Washington Examiner political correspondent Byron York.
“How ironic given that Hillary & the Dems still haven’t accepted the 2016 results,” a like-minded netizen observed.
Others wondered exactly how Trump would attempt to stay in power even if he lost the 2020 election.
“Let’s just suppose Trump does lose in 2020, how does ANY INTELLIGENT person think Trump will be able to stay in POWER… will he push the desk up against one of the 4 doors blocking entrance to him,” one Twitter user commented.
Pelosi’s talking points also received plenty of love on social media, however. One of her supporters ominously predicted that Trump would contest the election “whether he wins or not.”

WATCH: Walmart Leverages Tech Censorship For Lower Ad Rates According to Arkansas YouTuber
Boogie revealed that the tech censorship crisis may be inspired, at least partially, by advertisers’ desire for a lower rate.
By
During an appearance on the H3 podcast, the famous YouTuber revealed a personal conversation he had with a contact in Walmart advertising who said they do not care about big tech censorship, but are looking forward to the lower advertising rates they expect to pay as a result.
Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter have all faced some extent of an advertiser boycott, with the blame levied on users who are deemed not to be “advertiser friendly.”
This has been YouTube’s excuse to demonetize popular right wing channels, and likely went into consideration for Twitter when they summarily banned Infowars, and Facebook and Instagram last week when they went a step further and said they would ban any user who so much as posted a link to Infowars video content or Alex Jones.
Boogie2988, a YouTube streamer who became famous for his parody videos, video game live streams, and for chronicling his weight loss journey, offered a nuanced take during the podcast.
“I know a lot of people that work at Walmart,” Boogie said on the podcast, “And I know people that work in advertising at Walmart, and somebody from Walmart, and I won’t say which person specifically, said to me ‘We don’t really care about any of that censorship crap, we don’t really care about any of the drama.’”
He continued, quoting his conversation with an anonymous Walmart advertising employee, “‘We care about lowering our bids, so we’re going to do a six months or one year hiatus, and when we come back, we’re going to have much lower bids.’”
If true, it would seem the exodus of large advertisers from big tech platforms, and the sacrifice of many large content creators that followed, may be driven almost entirely by finance.
If YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter are perceived as dangerous places to advertise, the cost of doing so on the platforms would naturally decrease exponentially.
As Twitter user Justin Whang wrote succinctly, “Advertisers played YouTube like a fiddle.”
BATTLEGROUND MICHIGAN: Tires Slashed Outside of Conservative Pro-Trump Gathering
This is a taste of what is to come for 2020, as the deranged left resorts to violence and property damage.
By Shane Trejo
A vandal, believed to be a liberal enraged about Donald Trump, slashed tires of multiple vehicles outside of a conservative pro-Trump event last weekend.
The act of property destruction occurred outside of the Michigan Conservative Political Action Conference (MiCPAC), which took place on April 27 in Holt, MI. While the event’s hundreds of attendees were participating in activism and discussions, vehicles with large bumper stickers and window decals were targeted for vandalism.
This man’s car was targeted because of his large pro-Trump back window decal.
One of the cars vandalized belonged to Alex Larner, who is Director of the Michigan Conservative Union (MCU), the state’s longest-running organization promoting limited government and traditional values. His car was likely targeted because it displayed patriotic bumper stickers bought from Alex Jones’ web store.
“What happened that day wasn’t just a tire slashing,” Larner said in an exclusive statement to Big League Politics. “It was an attack on one of the core foundations of our public, freedom of speech. Where dialogue is abandoned for vandalism, there goes freedom to die.”
Larner’s tire was slashed in an act of senseless politically-motivated destruction.
This anti-Trump vandalism occurred just days before Jones and other right-wing media voices were arbitrarily thrown off Facebook. It is becoming much more difficult and dangerous to be an open conservative in the former land of the free.
“The globalists and dinosaur media have created a culture full of Marxist malcontents brainwashed into believing that violence is the only solution,” Larner added.
Larner believes it is important to “counter the false narrative” by standing “with knowledge and truth” rather than violence. The MCU accomplishes that with their annual event, MiCPAC, and is targeted by the hate-filled left as a result.
“We are in an information war, and my bumper stickers will stay on as salvos for freedom, fighting the fight for the hearts and minds of America,” Larner said.
With Michigan being arguably the most important battleground state heading into 2020, more liberal vandalism and violence can be expected as they desperately try to evict Trump from the White House.
‘ANYONE EVER SEEN COCAINE?’: UNEARTHED VIDEO SHOWS BERNIE LECTURING YOUNG CHILDREN ABOUT DRUGS
‘I’m only 5 years old,’ says child
MAY 4, 2019
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a 2020 presidential candidate, once asked a group of children if they had ever seen cocaine and if they smoked cigarettes when he was the mayor of Burlington, while talking to kids as a part of his old television show.
In an episode of Sanders’s show “Bernie Speaks with the Community,” which was created in the 1980s, he is sitting on top of a wooden picnic table with a microphone speaking with a group of children about a variety of issues, with a focus on drugs. Politico obtained footage of the show and released it Friday.
“Do any of the older kids you know have some problems with drugs?” Sanders asked the children. “Who wants to talk to me about that? What about drugs? Is that a problem?”
“I like coke!” one little boy said.
“Tell me about that,” Sanders asked.
“I like Coca-Cola!” the boy corrects himself.
“Oh, Coca-Cola. Alright, but who knows about cocaine?” Sanders continued.
“Anyone ever seen cocaine? Do any of the kids know people who use drugs like that?” Sanders asked. “You don’t have to tell me who, but I bet you do.”
A couple children at the table said they might have seen cocaine, and he cut them off.
“Hold it!” he said, later adding the drug “screws up your mind,” before changing the subject to cigarettes, asking the children, “Who here smokes?”
“Come on, raise your hand.”
“I don’t smoke because I’m a little kid,” a child sitting in someone’s lap responded. “I’m only 5 years old.”
Sanders is a front-runner in the 2020 presidential fight, with a crowded field of Democrats who hope to take on President Donald Trump. However, Sanders’s former press secretary decided to join former Vice President Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign for president, deciding to not work for her former boss.
Trump accused the Democratic National Committee of conspiring to oust Sanders from the 2020 Democratic primary in an April tweet.
