President Trump & First Lady Melania Visit Disaster Struck Texas Following Hurricane Harvey

TRUMP VISITS TEXAS TO PROVIDE HOPE …

President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump visited Corpus Christi, Texas yesterday before headed to Austin to meet with state officials to discuss what needs to be done following Hurricane Harvey. President Trump told a crowd of Texans who’d lined up outside a Corpus Christi firehouse, that the recovery effort is ‘going well’ and his administration is ‘here to take care of you’.  The President praised state and federal officials for their response to Harvey. Trump went on to say to flood victims gathered in Corpus Christi, “I will tell you, this is historic.” It’s epic, but you know what? It happened in Texas and Texas can handle anything.” At the conclusion of Trump’s remarks, he thanked Abbott, promised to get Texas “back and operating immediately” and waved a Lone Star flag, to which the crowd responded with cheers.

President Donald Trump backed off his claim that Texas would be ‘up and running very, very quickly’ after Tropical Storm Harvey on Tuesday afternoon.

The president mused during a briefing at the Texas Department of Public Safety that the flood waters in southern Texas, which has seen record-breaking rainfall, might never recede.

‘Nobody’s ever seen this much water. The wind was pretty horrific, in particular, but the water has never been seen like this, to this extent. And it’s, maybe someday going to disappear. We keep waiting,’ Trump said this afternoon in Austin.

His wife soon followed with an official statement of her own.

‘The effects of Hurricane Harvey will be felt in Texas, Louisiana, and other parts of the country for many months and years to come,’ she said.

Areas east of Houston, Texas have been drenched with more than 50 inches of rain. The storm continues to hover over southeastern Texas and parts of southwestern Louisiana.

Earlier, Trump told a crowd of Texans who’d lined up outside a Corpus Christi firehouse he was visiting that the recovery effort is ‘going well’ and his administration is ‘here to take care of you.’

‘We love you. You are special,’ the president said to cheers from onlookers. ‘This is historic, it’s epic, what happened, but you know what, it happened in Texas. Texas can handle anything.’

Hillary Clinton Book ‘What Happened’ Excerpt, “Back up you creep, get away from me” … Hillary Still Lying, Check Out the Video Tape

HILLARY CANT HELP HERSELF, SHE IS A LAIR …

What a joke, Hillary Clinton’s new book ‘What Happened” is just more Hillary excuses and lies. She teased the book with the following excerpt trying to besmirch candidate Donald Trump for his actions during the second Presidential debate, “Back up you creep, get away from me” Back up, hovered behind her? She is the one who walked in front of him during the debate and invaded his space. Donald Trump actually was standing next to his chair. But once again we are witness to more Hillary lies and excuses as she plays the victim. If Hillary Clinton couldn’t handle this, how could she be President of the United States?

Invading your space, REALLY? What a snowflake. Thankfully this individual never won. I used to think that Hillary Clinton had larger CO-JONES than most men. Boy was I wrong. This woman was Secretary of State and she describes her time during the debate as if she had never encountered an uncomfortable situation ever. However, the most irony comes from the fact that she refers to others as a creep when she is married and has made excuses and defended the biggest creeper the White House has ever known.

Hillary Clinton calls President Donald Trump a “creep” who “love[s] to intimidate women” in an excerpt of her forthcoming memoir while detailing her experience at one of 2016’s presidential debates.

In the passage from Clinton’s memoir, “What Happened,” the former secretary of state recounts an “incredibly uncomfortable” moment during the second presidential debate in St. Louis on October 9, in which her “skin crawled” as Trump was “looming behind” her and “literally breathing down [her] neck.” A day prior, the Washington Post had released a video from 2005 of Trump making lewd comments about sexually assaulting women.

“Well, what would you do? Do you stay calm, keep smiling and carry on, as if he weren’t repeatedly invading your space?” asks Clinton in the book. “Or do you turn, look him in the eye, and say loudly and clearly: ‘Back up you creep, get away from me. I know you love to intimidate women, but you can’t intimidate me, so back up.’”

Go to 25:25 of video below and you can see what happens, Hillary moves in-front of Trump and the media changes the camera angle.

ESPN Blasted for Political Correctness … Liberal Network Pulls Asian Announcer Robert Lee from UVA Football Game for Fear of Offending Idiots

ESPN, THE FINAL ACT OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IDIOCY … EVEN BEING AN ASIAN-AMERICAN DOESN’T STOP YOU FROM BEING A RACIST, WHITE SUPREMACIST.

UNREAL, I actually thought this was an Onion headline when I first saw it.  ESPN has gone to a place of idiocy and political correctness that is even out there for them. ESPN is actually going to remove an announcer from calling the University of Virginia football game because his name is Robert Lee. Is this man a white supremacist, racist or even a descendant of Civil War Confederate General Robert E. Lee? Nope, this Robert Lee is Asian. Can we just call ESPN, MSESPN from now on? Believe it or not, the fools in management at ESPN were concerned that having an Asian football announcer with the name of Robert Lee call a football game because it might e offensive to some viewers. What viewers, the moron contingency? I have news for you ESPN, snowflakes don’t watch football. Here is a question to ESPN and those that want to continue to watch the network, do you really think the people that watch your network are really that stupid? ESPN i already hemorrhaging viewership, maybe its time we no longer watch this liberal network at all seeing that they want to be more political than sports.

Just how ridiculous and foolish has this got? This is an indictment of ESPN in that there is no one there reasonable to differentiate the difference between Robert Lee and Robert E. Lee. Does this mean that some one is being discriminating against another for what another did. Even if this was the great, great grandson of Robert E. Lee, is he to blame for what his ancestor did? ESPN, you are idiots and should be ashamed.

Tucker Carlson Questions Why ESPN Pulled Asian Announcer Robert Lee Off The Air

Apparently, even being Asian doesn’t mean people won’t take you for being a white nationalist.

ESPN confirmed Tuesday night that it had decided to pull an announcer from calling a University of Virginia football game because his name is Robert Lee. This Robert Lee is Asian.

“We collectively made the decision with Robert to switch games as the tragic events in Charlottesville were unfolding, simply because of the coincidence of his name. In that moment it felt right to all parties,” reads the ESPN statement posted at the popular Fox Sports college-football blog Outkick the Coverage.

“Did I mention that Robert Lee is Asian?” wrote disbelieving blogger Clay Travis, who first broke the story, citing “multiple Outkick fans inside ESPN.”

Mr. Lee had been scheduled to call the Cavaliers Sept. 2 game in Charlottesville against William and Mary.

“It’s a shame that this is even a topic of conversation and we regret that who calls play by play for a football game has become an issue,” ESPN said in its statement.

Hmm, I am not seeing any similarities.

Robert E. Lee

Statement from ESPN:

What kind of mental midgets are running ESPN these days? Oh, can I say midget, or does that offend the delicate sensibilities of the fools at ESPN?

ESPN confirmed the report in a statement Tuesday night, saying that “in that moment it felt right.”

“We collectively made the decision with Robert to switch games as the tragic events in Charlottesville were unfolding, simply because of the coincidence of his name,” ESPN’s statement reads. “In that moment it felt right to all parties. It’s a shame that this is even a topic of conversation and we regret that who calls play by play for a football game has become an issue.”

“This makes it a bigger story than it ever would have been,” Travis said on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Tuesday, arguing that Lee announcing the game would have led to little more than Twitter jokes.

“Instead we are talking about how absurd this decision is for ESPN for days to come,” he said.

“Does ESPN really believe people are this dumb or that having an Asian announcer named Robert Lee is too offensive for the average TV viewer to handle?” Travis wrote. “Yes, yes they do.”

“I’m sorry you work for such an idiotic company, Robert Lee,” he wrote.

Let’s hope that ESPN doesn’t have any other football announcers with the names of Samuel Cooper, Albert Johnston, Joseph  Johnston, P. Beauregard, James Longstreet, Braxton Bragg, George Pickett or Bill(William) Anderson.

Missouri State Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal (D-University City) Posted, “I Hope Trump is Assassinated!” (VIDEO)

SICK!!!

More hate from the LEFT. Now we have a Missouri state Senator calling for the assassination of President Donald Trump. Are you joking? The post has since been taken down. In an interview, Chappelle-Nadal acknowledged she wrote the offending line on her personal Facebook page in response to another commenter before deleting it. However, she refuses to apologize. The Secret Service needs to pay her a visit and she needs to be arrested. This is how the LEFT reacts, with threats of violence.

Talk about hypocrisy! She claims that Trump is threatening and violent and she pulls this? She claims there is a bigoted president in the White House, yet it looks like there is a crazy, assasination wanting screwball in the Missouri sate house.

Missouri’s top Democrats call for senator to resign for ‘I hope Trump is assassinated’ post. Even Democrats who wish this would happen, know you can’t say it or make such things public. This is how vile and sick the LEFT has become. However, the state senator says that she will not resign. We shall see.

“I hope Trump is assassinated!” Missouri state Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal, D-University City, wrote during a morning Facebook exchange, referring to Republican President Donald Trump.

She quickly deleted her post, but not quickly enough. By midafternoon, the political verdicts of her own party were rolling in:

U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo.: “I condemn it. It’s outrageous. And she should resign.”

U.S. Rep. William Lacy Clay, D-St. Louis: “(C)alling for the assassination of the President is a federal crime. … (She is) an embarrassment to our state. She should resign immediately.”

Missouri Democratic Party Chair Stephen Webber: “The … Party will absolutely not tolerate calls for the assassination of the President. I believe she should resign.”

Spain Terror Attacks in Barcelona: Van Plows Through Crowded Tourist Area,13 Killed and 100 Injured (VIDEO)

TERROR ATTACK IN SPAIN …

Dozens of people are reportedly injured and dead after a van slammed into the crowded Las Ramblas tourist hotspot in Barcelona, Spain. It is being reported that 13 people have been killed an up to 100 injured in the terror attack. A white van drove through crowd of people swerving from side to side purposely trying to mow down as many individuals as possible. ISIS has since claimed responsibility for the attack. From what it appears, this was not a lone wolf terror attack, it was perpetrated by a terror cell. Sadly, the death toll has risen to 14.

Barcelona Terror Attack: 13 Dead, Dozens Injured – NBC Nightly News

A manhunt was underway for the driver of a van that mowed through crowds of tourists on Barcelona’s most famous avenue on Thursday, killing at least 13 people in an attack that was claimed by Islamic State.

Authorities said the death toll could rise, with more than 100 people injured, some seriously.

Police said they arrested two men, a Moroccan and a man from Spain’s north African enclave of Melilla, though neither was the driver. Witnesses said the driver fled on foot.

It was still not clear how many attackers had been involved.

Hours beforehand, one person was killed in an explosion in a house in a town southwest of Barcelona, in an incident linked to the attack, police added. Residents of the house were preparing explosives, a police source said.

As the manhunt continued into the night, police said several attackers were killed in a shootout during an operation against what they called a possible “terror attack” in Cambrils, another town south of Barcelona.

Earlier in Barcelona, witnesses said the white van zigzagged at high speed down Las Ramblas, a busy avenue thronged with tourists, ramming pedestrians and cyclists, sending some hurtling through the air and leaving bodies strewn in its wake.

UPDATE I: At least 14 dead, 100 injured in Spain attacks, 5 ‘terrorists’ killed in police operation.

Following a deadly vehicle-ramming attack in Barcelona Thursday afternoon — which left at least 13 people killed — a police operation was carried out 90 minutes south of the city in Cambrilla, during which five “terrorists” were killed, officials said.

Police said the operation was in response to a “possible terrorist attack.”

Five “terrorists” were killed in the operation, but initially officials said four people were injured and one person was wounded and detained.

On Twitter, police said they “have killed the alleged perpetrators.” Catalan police told ABC News that they believe the incident in Cambrils is related to the attack in Barcelona earlier Thursday.

Authorities confirmed early Friday morning, the explosive belts carried by the alleged terrorists, were fake.

“We work on the hypothesis that the terrorists killed in Cambrils would be related to the events in Barcelona and Alcanar,” police said. Alcanar is the location of the earlier deadly house explosion that police said was believed to be connected to the Barcelona plot.
