CO: Anti-ICE Open-Borders Protestors Raise Mexican Flag, Upside Down American Flag At ICE Facility

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on July 13, 2019 39 Comments

In response to the news that there were going to be ICE raids and deportations of illegal aliens who have already been issued deportation orders, leftists in Colorado chose a uniquely infuriating way to protest the move. They illegally entered federal property, took down the American flag, defaced it, raised it (upside down), and raised a Mexican flag at the same height as the defaced, union-down American flag. They also raised some sort of anti-police/Blue Lives Matter flag in place of the Colorado state flag.

Andrew Gillum Moves Campaign Money to Nonprofit After Inquiry Into Political Committee

Posted by Mary Chastain on July 12, 2019 16 Comments

Andrew Gillum has decided to transfer donations for his new voter registration project to the nonprofit Forward Florida Action instead of his political committee, which has come under fire from federal investigators. Placing donations into the nonprofit means the public will no longer know for sure how those spend the money since the organization "does not have to disclose its spending."

The first bout of trembling occurred on June 18 when she stood alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during the playing of the national anthems. Days later she was seen shaking during a public appearance with German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
