Democrat Roy Cooper Lied About Why He Released 4,200 Criminals from Prison

Democrat Senate candidate and former North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper is shifting blame over the reason he released 4,200 convicted criminals from prison during the COVID pandemic. 

In 2021, Cooper and far-left groups announced a settlement agreement releasing a total of 3,500 convicted criminals from state prison. When Cooper’s settlement was announced, prison officials said only convicts with sentences ending in 2021 would be released. That declaration misled a state legislative committee, forcing officials to correct them at the time, indicating violent offenders would be released. 

The list of specific offenders was shielded at the time and only released when it was confirmed that DeCarlos Brown, the man accused of murdering Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on Charlotte’s light rail system, was on the list.

Cooper has offered numerous excuses for releasing violent criminals from prison. 

When Brown’s history became public, the campaign said it was a “lie,” pointing to Cooper’s “career prosecuting violent criminals and keeping thousands of them behind bars as attorney general, and signing tough on crime laws and stricter pretrial release bail policy as governor and pointed to Cooper’s 40-year tenure in public office.”

He then tried to pin the releases on federal prison releases in the Trump administration. Once that explanation fell apart, Cooper sought to blame prison officials, saying it was their determination of who was released. 

Yet Cooper was the only governor in the country who signed a legally-binding agreement requiring their state to release prisoners. 

What made North Carolina different was Cooper being a willing participant in the releases. States such as Colorado, Illinois, and New Jersey saw judges order inmate releases, but many of those rulings were later blocked or overturned on appeal by those states’ Democrat governors. Cooper voluntarily agreed. 

Among those released from state prisons were drug dealers, rapists, murderers, and child predators.

In Colorado, Gov. Jared Polis resisted similar demands and highlighted that Cooper could have pursued a different legal path instead of settling in the case. While the ACLU ultimately prevailed with a consent decree with the state Department of Corrections, Polis’s opposition and continued litigation avoided a court-mandated quota system.

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker never signed a contract guaranteeing or commanding a large-scale mass release of prisoners, keeping the control over population figures within executive discretion. 

In New Jersey, the state’s legislature passed measures allowing mass releases where Cooper’s team admitted to misleading oversight from the North Carolina General Assembly. 

Nearly half of the criminals Cooper released have gone on to reoffend. These violent offenders were responsible for the murder of 25 North Carolinians and over 600 violent felonies.

EVERYTHING IS FAR-RIGHT: Austrian ‘Fashion Researcher’ Wastes Taxpayer Money in ‘Study’ To Warn that Trad-Wives and Even Polo Shirts Are ‘Extreme-Rightwing’

It would be funny what passes for ‘science’ these days – if it wasn’t so sad and dangerous.

All around the world, Globalist-Liberals have lost the culture war, and their ruinous policies have been repeatedly exposed as the catastrophe that they are.

But in academia, insanity continues unabated, and biased individuals continue to churn out ‘studies’ and ‘papers’ that are headed straight to the trash can of history.

In Austria, one such aberration has come to light.

A Viennese ‘fashion researcher’ (you already know it’s going to be bad) wasted almost half a million dollars of taxpayers’ money to investigate polo shirts, the “Old Money” look, or the “tradwife” trend in connection with ‘right-wing tendencies.’

Freilich Magazine reported (translated from the German):

“What used to be associated with bomber jackets and combat boots is said to be much more difficult to recognize today. According to the Viennese fashion researcher Elke Gaugele, the spectrum of clothing styles she studied now ranges from streetwear to the so-called ‘old money’ look to polo shirts or the ‘tradwife’ style.

This means that her research focuses on garments and fashion trends that are worn by millions of people, regardless of political attitudes. As part of a three-year research project at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, the scientist says she is investigating the development of clothing styles and fashion brands since 1989, which she sees in connection with right-wing extremist milieus. The project is funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) with around 400,000 euros in public funds.”

Apparently, Gaugele sees the feared ‘far-right’ wherever she looks.

Trump signs 2 new EOs to restrict birthright citizenship and curb ‘birth tourism’

President Donald Trump signed two new executive orders (EOs) on Thursday aiming to restrict birthright citizenship and curb “birth tourism,” making a revised push on immigration policy just weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) struck down his initial sweeping order.

Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump acknowledged the June Supreme Court ruling that declared his broader January 2025 executive order unconstitutional, calling the 6–3 decision “unfortunate” while asserting that his administration was making further adjustments to pursue a narrower legal approach.

“We had a very unfortunate decision in the Supreme Court concerning birthright, it was close,” Trump said in the Oval Office on Thursday. “But a very, very unfortunate decision. So we’re making adjustments.”

“This was done right after the Civil War … This was for the babies of slaves,” Trump reminded those in attendance.  

The newly signed actions will work to circumvent the Supreme Court’s constitutional ruling by focusing on specific categories of foreign nationals rather than issuing a blanket denial to children of illegal aliens or temporary immigrants.

The first order seeks to deny automatic citizenship to children born in the United States to parents with foreign embassy or lobbying ties, as well as children whose parents are accused of engaging in fraudulent activity to secure their initial U.S. citizenship.

White House officials described the measure as an adjustment to the interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment’s jurisdiction clause, setting up what legal experts believe will be another round of immediate court challenges from far-left groups and state attorneys general (AGs).

The second EO explicitly targets commercial “birth tourism” by tightening visa regulations and border screening for pregnant foreign nationals traveling to the United States.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller emphasized that the administration intends to crack down on foreign visitors who utilize temporary travel visas with the primary intent of giving birth on American soil to secure citizenship for their newborns.

Abdul El-Sayed Issues a Disgusting Threat Against His GOP Opponent That Spectacularly Backfires When X Users Discover an Intriguing Irony

Islamo-Marxist Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed issued a vile threat against his GOP opponent that promptly blew up in his face after he neglected to mention a very inconvenient fact.

On Wednesday, El-Sayed held a press conference in Detroit, challenging GOP Michigan Senate nominee Mike Rogers to a series of five debates.

Then he made it clear that Rogers would pay a price for his so-called “crimes” against Michiganders.

“I know you’re going to say no because you’re a coward. Five debates. All right?” El-Sayed said.

“You and I both know that you will wither in front of your own crimes, but I’m gonna make sure Michiganders know about them. By the time we’re done, you are not going to have safe quarter from people holding you accountable for what you’ve done,” El-Sayed continued.

The “safe quarter” quip refers to Rogers having a home in Florida, which El-Sayed has relentlessly mocked him for.

So, was El-Sayed threatening to sic his supporters on Rogers, even from out of state? Sure sounds like it.

Camp David Clash: Trump Hammered Hegseth For Misleading Him On Arms Supply, WaPo Reports

Following reports that US forces have “used up virtually all” of their precision, long-range missiles in futile attempts to first trigger an Iranian regime change and then to compel Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz, now comes reporting that an angry President Trump confronted Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in recent days, accusing the Pentagon of misleading him on critical munitions shortages that leave Trump increasingly powerless in the five-month-old fiasco of a war. 

According to sources cited by the Washington Post, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to concern about retaliation, Trump’s ire erupted alongside a cabinet meeting held Friday at Camp David. Trump expressed consternation that he’d been assured that the weapon shortage “had been fixed” when that is apparently far from true.     

According to “multiple officials” who — reading between the lines — clearly seem to have had it with Fox News talking-head-suddenly-turned-Defense-secretary, Hegseth defended his own actions and tried redirecting the blame to Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg, a billionaire GOP donor whom Trump plucked out of his role as co-CEO of Cerberus Capital Management to give him the number-two job at the Pentagon. Hegseth was said to have thrown Feinberg under the bus for both the shortages and failing to keep Trump fully informed.  

The officials characterized Trump as increasingly exasperated by Hegseth, whom they describe as one of the most enthusiastic supporters of launching a war on Iran, saying he persuaded Trump that victory would come quickly and easily. The war that the administration once projected to last three or four weeks is now in its sixth month. Iran has used both its sophisticated missile technology and its inexpensive but huge arsenal of drones to wreak havoc on US and allied forces around the Gulf. Hammered by a shock and awe campaign peppered with the multiple incidents involving mass casualties among innocents — including scores of elementary schoolgirls — the Iranian people have rallied around the Islamic regime, for all its faults. At least 18 US service members lay dead, several hundred have been wounded, and some estimates of the war’s cost to date exceed $100 billion.

Court Orders Meta to Pay $567 Million Over Child Harm

A court on Thursday ordered Meta to pay $567 million into a fund over child harm.

New Mexico Judge Bryan Biedscheid compared Meta to air pollution and called it a “public nuisance.”

“Although Meta is not alone in this regard, its social media platforms are a significant contributing factor to the current mental health crisis among New Mexico’s youth established by the substantial evidence in this case,” Judge Bryan Biedscheid wrote in the ruling on Thursday, CNBC reported.

KCRA reported:

A New Mexico court has ordered Instagram and Facebook parent company Meta to pay $567 million to address harms to young people from its platforms in the second phase of a landmark trial the social media giant lost in March.

In a ruling late Thursday, Judge Bryan Biedcheid said the bulk of the money — $420 million — will be used for treatment services for young people. The rest will go toward awareness and prevention, screening services and other costs over the next five years.

In the first phase, jurors had ordered $375 million in civil penalties against Meta, determining that it knowingly harmed children’s mental health and concealed what it knew about child sexual exploitation on its platforms.

In the second phase, prosecutors had asked the judge to impose fundamental changes at Meta aimed at reining in addictive features, improving age verification and preventing child sexual exploitation through default privacy settings and closer oversight.

In March, a Los Angeles, California, jury found that Meta and YouTube were liable for a teen’s mental health and awarded her $3 million in damages.

The plaintiff, a 20-year-old woman identified as KGM or “Kaley,” said she became addicted to Meta’s app Instagram and Google’s YouTube as a child.

KGM said she developed body dysmorphia and had suicidal ideations because of her addiction to the social media platforms.

America Reaps What Trump Sows: The Price of Policing the Globe

“In a sense, blowback is simply another way of saying that a nation reaps what it sows.” — Chalmers Johnson

What goes around comes around.

That is the terrible law of blowback.

When the United States bombs another country, threatens its government, kills its people, occupies its territory or attempts to dictate its future, the consequences do not remain safely contained thousands of miles away.

They come home.

They come home in flag-draped coffins and shattered military families. They come home in retaliatory attacks on American bases and embassies. They come home through terrorist plots, cyber sabotage, disrupted shipping lanes, higher energy prices, depleted weapons stockpiles, and trillions of dollars in debt.

They come home through hacked water systems, vulnerable power grids, heightened domestic surveillance, militarized police and government demands that the American people surrender still more freedom in exchange for the promise of protection from dangers the government itself helped create.

This is blowback.

Blowback isn’t just about war. It’s about the consequences of the rash, heedless and heartless decisions made every day by the actors of the American police state—and the fact that it is “we the people” who will be paying the price for those terrible decisions for years to come.

President Trump’s war with Iran is only the latest reminder that no government can bomb, threaten and police the world indefinitely without eventually bringing the consequences home.

For months, the Trump administration has lurched between war and threatened war, massive bombing campaigns and aborted strikes, demands for surrender and claims that peace is imminent.

There appears to be no coherent plan for ending the conflict.

There is, however, a mounting bill—and it will be paid in American lives, American dollars, American security and American freedom.

This is what happens when a government appoints itself judge, jury, executioner and police officer to the world.

The government creates enemies faster than it can kill them.

It destabilizes one country, then uses the resulting chaos to justify intervening in another. It bombs in the name of peace, occupies in the name of freedom, surveils in the name of security, and retaliates against retaliation in an endless cycle of violence that serves the war machine while leaving ordinary people everywhere less safe.

We have seen this before.

SICK! Red Cross DELETES Documentary Pushing Afghan Migrant “Success Story” After He is Arrested for STUFFING Body of British Aid Worker in a Suitcase

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies is pulling a film that presents the harrowing journey of an Afghan teenager to Europe after the man featured in it was accused of the killing of a Scottish aid worker whose body was found inside a suitcase.

Sharif Ahmadzai, 26, was ordered jailed pending trial by a Greek court on Thursday in the death of Elisabeth-Jane Ross, a 38-year-old psychotherapist and volunteer aid worker from Scotland.

Elisabeth-Jane Ross traveled to Greece with a heart full of compassion, volunteering to help the very migrant communities that the political left insists are completely harmless. Instead of gratitude, she met a horrifying end.

Ross was reported missing in mid-July. Last week, her body was discovered by a homeless man. She had been dumped in a derelict building in Athens, shoved inside a suitcase.

Greek authorities arrested Ahmadzai, a professional boxer who arrived in Greece as an “unaccompanied minor” in 2016, received asylum in 2018 and had no prior criminal record.

According to police, CCTV footage caught Ahmadzai casually wheeling the heavy suitcase containing Ross’s body through the streets of Athens.

Authorities say he then stole her bank cards and drained €10,000 from her accounts.

Trump releases new UFO footage as files expose silent 500ft triangle over US base and mysterious body with undecipherable markings

The Trump administration released a fresh batch of UFO files on Friday, exposing dozens of reports and videos previously hidden from the public.

The fifth tranche includes chilling accounts of enormous triangular craft, mysterious high-speed orbs and even a metal sphere allegedly carrying a human body.

Among the most extraordinary reports is a military pilot’s account of a silent, 500-foot triangular object that swept over Bagram Airfield, a US-operated base in Afghanistan, in 2002.

The witness told agents that he was stargazing with a colleague at approximately 4.30am when the stars suddenly began disappearing above them.

‘It appeared as if something huge went overhead,’ the FBI interview summary states.

The pilot described the object as an equilateral triangle that moved silently across the sky at a steady speed and altitude, despite displaying no visible lights.

Another file recounts claims that a large metal sphere crashed into the center of Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro in 1963, gouging a 13ft-deep hole.

The mysterious object reportedly had window-shaped openings covered with thick glass, and contained a human body dressed in heavy clothing bearing inscriptions that could not be deciphered.

However, the records preserve witness statements and media reports rather than verified government findings, and they offer no evidence that either object was extraterrestrial. 

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said on Friday: ‘The Department of War is in lockstep with President Trump to bring unprecedented transparency regarding our government’s understanding of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. 

‘These files, hidden behind classifications, have long fueled justified speculation, and it’s time the American people see it for themselves. 

‘This release of declassified documents demonstrates the Trump Administration’s earnest commitment to unprecedented transparency.’

One of the records, a three-page FBI interview summary, details the pilot’s alleged encounter with the 500ft triangular craft over Bagram.

He estimated that the equilateral object was traveling at around 173mph.

The second pilot reportedly witnessed it too, asking, ‘Did you see that?’ as it passed overhead.

The witness said he did not report the encounter at the time and later failed to find anything that explained what they had observed.
