The trial of Officer Brian Rice began last Thursday with the prosecution removing one charge of misconduct in office; today Judge Barry Williams removed the 2nd Degree Assault charge stating the prosecution simply had not shown enough evidence to retain it.
Involuntary manslaughter, reckless endangerment and a lesser misconduct charge remains.
The prosecution rested it’s case and the defense began today on Day #3.
(Baltimore Maryland) The judge dropped one of four charges Monday against Baltimore police Lt. Brian Rice in the arrest and death of Freddie Gray, ruling prosecutors had not presented enough evidence to prove second-degree assault after three days of witness testimony. (more…)

There is only one party in Washington DC, the UniParty.  The professional political class support themselves beyond all other ideological factors. These are modern realities.

President Obama is in a very tenuous position this week as a nation has been stunned by the targeting of police officers.  Indeed, there is a solid argument to be made that President Obama created the antagonism toward law enforcement with various speeches and cursory accusations of unequal treatment.
As a modern social justice president who embraces radical extremist groups like Black Lives Matter, and as an executive community activist who has used the cabinet offices of his administration to leverage social change, President Obama has embraced many divisive entities and expressed ideological alignment with their cause.
The gunman in Dallas who targeted white police officers, specifically because of the color of their skin, is just one visible consequence from a President who rails against a system of law and order.  Obama’s ideology is more comfortable amid the chaos.  (more…)

Lavish “Diamond” Reynolds Makes The Rounds on the Customary New York Media Circuit.

Lavish “Diamond” Reynolds is the woman who live-streamed the aftermath of the Philando Castile shooting in Falcon Heights Minnesota.   Today Reynolds appeared with her lawyer Larry Rogers Jr (from Chicago) on ABC, Good Morning America, and the transparency of falsehood was on full display.
The key point to reference is at 01:40 when George Stephanopolous asks Diamond to describe what took place prior to the video.  Note how her representative immediately jumps in to block her from answering:

Ms. Reynolds claims that Philando Castile never displayed his weapon.  Ms. Reynolds has earlier stated Castile was “reaching for his wallet, which was in his back pocket.
Unfortunately for Ms. Reynolds claim there is a part of her own video where it’s possible to see the gun in the lap of Castile. (more…)

Unbelievable, President Obama needs to get his Black Lives Matter crew under control quickly… Things are rapidly spiraling out of control.
LAKESHIRE • A former Affton High School football standout forced his way into a South County home and was shot and killed by an off-duty officer inside after a Facebook dispute over Black Lives Matter apparently boiled over late Saturday afternoon.
That’s what can be pieced together from the accounts of police and an uncle of Tyler Gebhard, who said the young man had been struggling with mental health issues.
“He walked over there and into a gunfight,” Gebhard’s uncle, Patrick Brogan said, drawing on accounts offered by friends of his nephew. “When he got there, he was met with a gun and the guy killed him.”  (more…)

Dallas Police Chief David Brown was interviewed by CNN’s Jake Tapper today and discussed, at length, the attack against police in Dallas.

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani appeared on CBS Face The Nation today to discuss the racial animus driven by the professional Black Grievance Industry and Black Lives Matter activists.
With the backdrop of a growing Obama/MSM national narrative -which is leading to targeted assassination attempts of police- Mayor Giuliani pushes back hard against the divisive media intents promoted by CBS host, and best friend of Paul Ryan, John Dickerson.

In addition, the black chief of police in El Paso, Texas, labeled Black Lives Matter a “radical hate group” Friday night, blaming them for Thursday’s shooting in Dallas and calling on policymakers to take a closer look at the movement.

Executive Level Gaslighting – Speaking at a press conference in Poland, President Obama actually said it is “very hard to untangle the motives” of the shooter in Dallas who killed five police officers Thursday evening. This statement is despite the shooter telling police exactly what his motive entailed.

“First of all, I think it’s very hard to untangle the motives of this shooter.  I’ll leave that to psychologists and people who study these kinds of incidents … I think the danger is that we somehow suggest the act of a troubled individuals speaks to some larger political statement across the country.”…

Consider the following contrast:

Doing some general research we dropped by the Go-Fund-Me sites to see how successful the Philando Castile Team have been.   So far the three fundraising accounts, previously managed by Black Lives Matter activists, are exceeding:  $254,907.00

• Mama Valerie Castile’s account leading the way with $163,674  (link)
• Big Sis Allysza’s account comes in second with $60,939 (link)
• Lavish Reynolds account third with a paultry $30,294  (link)

Total $254,907

So far, a strong success. (more…)

For those who are following the Minnesota “Falcon Heights” shooting of Philando Castile by Officer Jeronimo Yanez, we are going to provide some rather astonishing information that is completely counter to the MSM narrative advanced by Lavish “aka Diamond” Reynolds.
However, as a warm-up to that exploration, a brief refresher, an analogy, is warranted.

..”They Shot That Boy For No Reason !”

[ In May of 2015 ] the police approached a man on the street in Baltimore suspected of carrying a firearm. Before the police could reach him the man took off running. During the pursuit the suspects handgun either fell, or was dropped, as he fled. The suspects gun went off when it hit the ground. Fortunately no-one was hit by the discharge. The man was tackled by the chasing officers and then, out of an abundance of caution, transported via ambulance.
No police officer fired their weapons. No-one was shot. The only firearm discharge was from the fleeing suspect as his firearm hit the ground.
Now watch this video of how a female “eye-witness”, injected her perception of the event, and quickly reported it to the media and enraged the community. Passionate, angry, tearful and adamant about what she witnessed.
[wpvideo 0Oyl8gXP]
Of course, none of that is true. Nothing she is describing actually took place.  This should be a case study in how unreliable agenda witness statements actually are. (more…)

Democrat Congresswoman Corrine Brown appeared in federal court Friday to face a twenty-two count federal indictment for fraud, conspiracy, mail fraud, wire fraud, making false statements and more (full federal charge doc pdf below).
She immediately claimed her DOJ investigation caused the Orlando terrorist massacre.

“Congresswoman Brown is the subject of an indictment today, but in reality, she has endured a one-sided inquisition in the court of public opinion over one year,” White said. “Perhaps had [the Department of Justice] chosen to devote its resources more thoughtfully, 50 people would be alive today.” (read more)
