Last year one presidential candidate pointed out the brutal reality of Mexican rapists and human smuggling at the U.S. Mexico border….
LA GRULLA, Texas  ̶̶  Agents apprehended a woman and her 11-year old daughter late Saturday night. The woman, a Honduran national, told Border Patrol agents she was robbed and beaten by smugglers after she refused to let them rape her 11-year-old daughter.

The Honduran national, traveling with her cousin and her daughter, told agents that two smugglers floated them across the Rio Grande on a raft. Once on the American side, the smugglers threatened to rape her daughter.
The woman protected her child by attempting to fight them off. The two smugglers then pinned her down and repeatedly punched her in the face and stomach as her daughter watched screaming and crying. (more…)

[Updated 5:50pm with Andy Savage response below]:
Officer Michael Slager is the South Carolina police officer charged with murder in the shooting death of Walter Scott.  Officer Slager’s trial is set to begin October 31st 2016, however the DOJ announced additional federal charges today.
The back story for today’s DOJ announcement frames the motive for the Obama Dept of Justice, Civil Rights Division, to file proactive charges today – the media will avoid highlighting the transparency.  However, long term CTH readers will understand it well. Remember, Hillary Clinton called Ryan Julison.

The State of South Carolina has put itself in a very difficult position with prosecution of the case against officer Slager.  Despite the media presentation of the event, the charge of Murder is a significant reach given the actual events which occurred in the entirety of the several minutes of the physical struggle with Walter Scott which were not recorded or discussed in the media.

Not sure if any of this is connected, but it certainly is quite a coincidence. We note three stories on three consecutive days:
♦ Sunday, May 8th – “Sickening new pictures have emerged of a new form of ISIS execution – stabbing prisoners directly in the heart to kill them for their ‘crimes against the caliphate'”. (link)

♦ Monday, May 9th – GRAFING, Germany — A German man yelled “infidel, you must die” and “Allahu akbar” as he stabbed one person to death and wounded three others at a Bavarian train station Tuesday, but authorities said they’ve found no links to any Islamic extremist network. (link)
♦ Tuesday, May 10th – (last night) BOSTON – TAUNTON (CBS) – An off-duty officer shot and killed a man who allegedly stabbed two people to death during a rampage at two locations in Taunton Tuesday night.

Police responded to the Silver City Galleria shopping mall just before 7:00 p.m. after the suspect, identified as 28-year-old Arthur DaRosa, crashed a black Honda Accord into the entrance of a Macy’s store. (more…)

The newly elected Mayor of London, England, Sadiq Khan, sent a rather disturbing public message to the United States and candidate Donald Trump today.  The implied threat content is more than a little alarming:

How does a persons’ view of a group make the viewer “less safe”, unless the viewed group have an inherent propensity to violence?
What Mayor Khan is essentially outlining is the preferred position of all abusers.

If you had only made me a better sandwich my disappointment wouldn’t have made me punch you in the face.

This story is an example why the republican party consistently loses against the progressive left.   In response to the ridiculous, albeit recent, NC bathroom laws (which the MSM are having fun bashing conservatives on the head with) the Ted Cruz constituency wants to write bathroom laws into the 2016 republican party platform.
Yes, yes, unfortunately – that’s the modern right-wing cultural GOPe.  Look over there, shiny thing, shiny thing… quick, go chase it….. quick make a law to control it…. bathrooms, gays, transgenders… oh noes, the humanity !

WASHINGTON DC – After he lost the Republican nomination, Sen. Ted Cruz’s backers will now reportedly pivot towards trying to gain control of the GOP’s platform during the national convention.

According to The New York Times, top Cruz aide Ken Cuccinelli wrote in an email to supporters urging them to come to Cleveland in July to “protect against liberal changes to our platform.” Cuccinelli confirmed the effort to the Times, telling them that Cruz’s backers seek to protect “movement conservatism,” including a firming of the party’s core positions on abortion and the addition of language regarding transgender bathroom use.

Last year Matt Drudge warned of this activity, asserting that corporate and SJW interests were going to manipulate the news content feed on platformed social media in an effort to advance a false impression of support.  Looks like he was right as whistle-blowers now tell how Facebook is manipulating content.
(Via Daily Caller) Facebook staff manually inserted the “Black Lives Matter” topic into its trending news feed in order to artificially boost the movement’s popularity and in turn boost the Facebook brand, according to a former employee who curated news for the site.

“Facebook got a lot of pressure about not having a trending topic for Black Lives Matter,” the former curator told Gizmodo. “They realized it was a problem, and they boosted it in the ordering. They gave it preference over other topics.” (more…)

Update to THIS STORY – Nero is also anticipated to request a bench trial, without jury.

BALTIMORE SUN – Baltimore prosecutors have asked that the trial of Officer Edward Nero be pushed back one day after their offices were shut down for utility work over the weekend.
Nero is the second officer to go to trial in the arrest and death of Freddie Gray, and proceedings are slated to begin Tuesday with pre-trial motions. His trial is scheduled to begin Wednesday.
Prosecutors said in a motion filed Friday that they were told by BGE that their offices at 120 E. Baltimore St. would be shut down and without power from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. on Saturday. The work would also prevent the trial team from remotely accessing files, “effectively and unexpectedly halting final case preparations during the important last days before trial.” (read more)

Approximately three weeks before the arrest of Freddie Gray the state attorney,Marilyn Mosby, asked police to target an intersection in Baltimore (around the Gilmore Homes housing area) for  “enhanced” drug enforcement efforts. 

Officer Edward Nero and Officer Garrett E. Miller were conducting a bicycle patrol around Gilmore Homes when they made eye contact with Freddie Gray, who took off running. The officers pursued Gray and caught him.  Gray was restrained and handcuffed, and they found a “spring assisted” knife on his belt.  An arrest van was called to the scene, Gray was put in the van for transport to Central Booking.
According to a medical autopsy, Freddie Gray suffered an apparent severe spinal injury (self-inflicted) in the van and died after being transported to the hospital.

Donald Trump strikes again.  Candidate Trump deliciously trolls the cultural Marxists within the media machine with a simple tweet over lunch on Cinco de Mayo when he shares a menu choice, a taco bowl.

Immediately, spasmodically, the leftist media have a collective ‘splodey head over such a horrific display of cultural appropriation.  STOP THE PRESSES – this is a matter which deserves immediate and intensive investigation…. cue the response from Buzzfeed: (more…)

On July 19th 2014 Senator Ted Cruz went to McAllen Texas and passed out bags of goodies, treats and toys to illegal aliens as they crossed the border from Mexico.


Well, according to a recent video release, it appears the same kids are now showing the U.S.A their appreciation: (more…)
