  1. It’s fine….

    “THE JUDGES ARE OUT OF CONTROL! This one needs to be arrested – this is INSANE!!

    An Illinois judge who put an accused cop k*ller on a monitor held two courtroom deputies in contempt this week for not immediately uncuffing a high-risk inmate charged with m*rder.⠀

    Cook County Circuit Judge John Lyke Jr. ordered Samuel Estrada Perez and Jarrett Kelley to take the restraints off so the defendant could hug family, according to Teamsters Local 700 and a court transcript published by NBC Chicago.

    Sheriff’s policy requires a supervisor’s OK before uncuffing a “high risk movement” inmate.⠀When the deputies moved to call that supervisor, Lyke jailed them for contempt, stripped their badges and gear, and told them to apologize or face up to 90 days. They apologized and were released.⠀

    “Punishing two deputies for doing exactly what they are trained and required to do is an outrageous abuse of the court’s authority,” Local 700 President Ramon Williams said.⠀

    Lyke is the same judge who released Alphanso Talley on electronic monitoring in December 2025 over prosecutors’ objection. Talley was later charged with first-degree m*rder in the sh**ting of Chicago Police Officer John Bartholomew. That charge is pending.⠀

    CWB Chicago separately reported Lyke has threatened jail for at least six deputies over the hug-and-uncuff practice. The union wants Chief Judge Charles Beach to reprimand him.”

  2. I hope women understand how far this sets you back with sane men.

    “This is 100 percent confirmation that the female jurors were not only trying to make a statement but were also following the trial on social media. The more these hags run their mouths, the worse it gets.”

    “During her next media tour stop, juror Paula Devlin says the mostly female jury knew the Lindsay Clancy trial could create change to “make it better for other women.”

    “We knew that this was a turning point, and this would be something that could change something to make it better for other women…””

  4. “These women are easily setting the women’s movement back a century. Women cannot proclaim equality while simultaneously demanding discounted accountability for their actions as victims of their own bodies.

    Ladies, when you are no longer considered for hiring, promotion, dating or marriage …

    … it’s because of this nonsense. Are we equal or not?”

    “So the jury decided not to deliberate about the murderess mother or justice for the children she physically strangled the life out of. Instead they decided to make it personal and push an agenda they felt superseded the actual case. Now they’re clamoring for all 15 minutes of fame and exposing the one juror who thankfully didn’t bend over. This should scare the hell out of everyone, including prospective jurors. Deplorable precedent they’ve set.”

  5. Dems live to abuse taxpayers.

    https://x.com/DeepLeaksHQ/status/2099090410929107238

    “This is disturbing – Biden and Obama Democrats created a new beast, the “popup nonprofit shell” they suddenly launch to take in your taxpayer money supposedly for things like climate change and illegal immigration. Major front for taxpayer abuse with accusations of grift growing by the hour. Never saw it like this in decades covering IRS/taxes. 

    Check out the tax returns for one of these popup NGO shells, the Climate United Fund which got the biggest nonprofit grant in history out of Biden’s massive climate slush funds. 

    Kamala Harris and Biden’s EPA chief Michael Regan gave $7 billion total to the suddenly created Climate United Fund in April 2024 after it launched just five months earlier in November 30, 2022 when Its tax returns show it started with a tiny $547K in revs.
But it spent a massive $451K of that $547k in just two months in 2023, a quarter of that on legal fees and the majority $323K mysteriously blown on no one knows what because its tax returns don’t say. 

    It has no stipulated plans for how it will spend your $7B in tax $$, just ephemeral solar projects in Idaho, Arkansas, and Oregon that amount to only about $50M total, a fraction of the $7B.

    It also gave money out of that $7b to Power Forward Communities linked to Stacey Abrams. 

    It has little to no details on how much its officers get paid that you typically see on NGO 990s, in fact virtually no details, red flags that it’s a shell.

    It supposedly is a partnership betw Dem insiders at investment firm Calvert Impact Capital, Community Preservation Corp. and a group called “Self-Help” (irony noted).

     Beth Bafford is its CEO, a former “special assistant” in Obama’s OMB and a regional field director for the Obama Campaign.  

    As we tweeted about a month ago, it has ties to Democratic Party of California chairman and California State Treasurer Phil Angelides, Obama’s Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, United Farm Workers of America co-founder Dolores Huerta and Patrice Willoughby of the Congressional Black Caucus. 

    Judge Glock, the Director of Research and Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, noted on X that the Climate United Fund got your $7B ater submitting a small 49-page report. That was all it took.”

  9. I find it interesting that some seem to think it is okay to villainize the 11 women jurors, but no one should question the lone hold-out juror. If the women are using their verdicts to make a statement rather than what they really believe, that is wrong. Or it may just be that they view what they really believed the verdict should be will also help other women. I don’t know the truth there and haven’t heard the interviews.

    Nor do I know the truth about the lone juror’s answers during voir dire. I do know that you are required to be totally truthful or you can be held in contempt or removed from a jury.

    If you go in with an agenda, whether for women or something else, you are in the wrong and the prosecution or the defense have the right to question it all. I will let them fight it out.

    We might also throw out the issue of how much broadcasting we should be doing in court rooms. It is wonderful in many ways, but also makes it difficult in others, including finding jurors if cases are retried.

  10. The one male juror isn’t out giving interviews and acknowledging they broke the law (outside “expert” nurses), didnt follow the judges instructions, and isn’t publicly acknowledging they were activist on a mission.

    Big difference.

  11. This will only get worse now.

    There have already been other instances where an activist woman/women corrupted the jury.

    Here’s an activist judge doing the same.

    Female too.

    ““Hard to manage young men.” “Something probably set her off.”

    That’s what a Florida judge just said after a mother beat her 12-year-old son with a hammer and pepper sprayed him in the face.

    Last Thursday in Opa-locka, Shkebia Lynettee Stanley, 37, a former corrections sergeant, suddenly stopped the car, pulled a hammer she kept in the vehicle, and started hitting her son in the back seat.

    No warning. He blocked the blows with his arm. Then she grabbed pepper spray and emptied it in his face. He got the door open, ran to his dad’s apartment, and police found him in the shower trying to wash it off, shaking and scared.

    She told officers nothing happened. She still smelled like pepper spray.

    The judge said she doesn’t know what would possess a mother to do this, then immediately started looking for reasons not to treat it like what it is.

    We keep seeing this. When a father does it he’s a monster. When a mother does it she snapped, the boy was hard, something set her off, counseling is better than jail 🙄

    A 12-year-old is not a young man who needed managing. He is a child who got attacked by his mother. And every time we make room for that excuse, we tell the next kid the same thing.”

  12. “NYC Mom Found Not Responsible After Stabbing and Killing Her Two Little Boys.

    Dimone Fleming stabbed her sons, 3-year-old Daishawn and 11-month-old Octavius, then hid their bodies.

    A judge ruled she was not responsible because of postpartum psychosis. She will not go to prison. She could be sent to a hospital if doctors say she is still mentally ill.

    She had already been treated, stopped her medication, and was using marijuana daily. Doctors said she was out of touch with reality the night she killed them.

    A mother who confessed to killing her babies walks free of prison on a psychosis defense.”

    “Canadian Lib Who Mocked Charlie Kirk Just Got Fired and DEPORTED on Same Day… RUINED Her Life FOREVER

    A student from Canada thought it would be a good idea to repeatedly mock Charlie’s murder and posted a picture of her stomping on the America flag.

    Now, she just lost her job and had her visa revoked. She will be headed back to Canada on Monday.

    We’re done letting people who hate this country and its people stay here.

    Good riddance.”

  14. “Trump slapped a $100K fee on flying in cheap foreign tech labor and the impact has been staggering.

    Result: petitions to bring workers from overseas crashed 91%

    Infosys H1Bs went from 8,886 to 759.

    TCS, the company responsible for shuttling Indian tech workers to America, saw their numbers crash from 5,955 to 284.

    President Trump has laid waste to the Indian outsourcing machine.

    This is what putting American workers first actually looks like.”

    “BREAKING. Scott Bessent just announced the Internal Revenue Service is launching MASSIVE AUDITS of financial institutions that facilitated the laundering of Minnesota funds.

    Read that again.

    Banks. MSBs. Financial middlemen.Anyone who helped move dirty money is about to get TORCHED.

    For once, the IRS is being deployed FOR AMERICANS FIRST — not against working families.

    Follow the money.

    Audit everything.

    “I’ve had a few people ask me this since I am a MA lawyer and former federal prosecutor.

    Under MA law – G.L. c. 268, § 13B – it’s a felony to willfully threaten, harass, intimidate, or cause injury (physical, emotional, or economic) to a juror – including AFTER a trial ends – if done to punish or retaliate for their vote.

    NOTE: This isn’t limited to explicit threats. Exposing a juror’s identity or personal information with intent to subject them to harassment can qualify. Penalty: up to 10 years in state prison.

    Separately, publishing a sealed juror’s identity may violate the court’s own order, exposing the leaker to contempt.

    ALSO NOTE: Journalism using public records is generally protected speech. The line, however, is whether the intent is to inform the public or to retaliate because you disagreed or disliked the juror’s vote/decision.”

    And the absolute mockery it makes of the jury process.

    “One of the Lindsay Clancy jurors said she did not consider any of the points the prosecution made in the trial – not one.

    #massachusettsReporter: Did the prosecution make any points you considered?

    Paula Devlin: No.

    Three jurors, of the 11 who voted to find Lindsay Clancy not guilty of strangling her three kids to de*th, have admitted to spending days trying to convince other jurors and themselves that Clancy was not guilty.

    They attacked the holdout juror for allegedly not following the law and called him arrogant for not listening to the nurses on the panel and their interpretation of the evidence.

    #trail

    However, at least one of those jurors, Devlin, is now admitting she did not consider anything the prosecution said or presented in the trial.

    Kellie Farina, a senior-center chef, called the prosecution “harsh. Very, very harsh” and “kind of without a heart.”

    She said prosecutors were “biased right out of the gate.”

    “We didn’t find any compassion in the prosecution. I know it’s their job, but in a case like this, you expect a little bit.”

    Devlin said the prosecution “did themselves more damage than good” by failing to treat Clancy as a whole person and said they “completely disregarded” explanations from nurses on the panel about toxicology reports.

    The women said it started with eight not guilty votes, and they had to work really hard to convince themselves and the others that she was not guilty.”

  19. So it is ok to kill your children before birth but these women want to make it “better” for other women who murder their children once they are fully born? Next up …

    George Floyd once held a gun to the head of a pregnant woman during a robbery… he is held in high esteem by be left. This lone hold out jurist has a past and he is a villain for standing up for the lives of these babies….go figure…
