Weinstein Sex Scandal Dunks Celebrity Trump Critics In Shame
Just about a week ago CNN ran a breathless article about the latest Hollywood celebrity to assume the brave mantle of social justice champion. The piece, titled, “How Jimmy Kimmel Became America’s Conscience,” lauded the talk show host for bravely flying in the face of American conservatives on health care and gun control. Like Lena Dunham, Meryl Streep, Robert DeNiro, and countless other unsung celebrity heroes, he was ready to speak truth to power!
Consider: “[Kimmel] told people, including me, that he expected heavy blowback from conservative and pro-Trump voices.” Nevertheless, he persisted. Kimmel will stand strong. He will not be silenced.
Then the Harvey Weinstein story hit. Arguably the most important player in Hollywood had at best harassed, at worst assaulted or raped, young women for decades. Surely this was a moment for Kimmel to stand with women and deliver another one of his impassioned monologues. Instead, according to a recent interview, he said: “that story came out like I think moments before we went to tape on Thursday and we didn’t have a show on Friday.”
Kimmel can’t be expected to react to the news of the day. He apparently needs several hours to work up his consternation at people who abuse women. What’s more, he rebukes the idea that he has any responsibility to do so. Counter to CNN’s claims about him being the conscience of America, he said, “They’re saying that I’m calling myself the moral conscience of America, which I most certainly never did and most certainly never would.” Well, at least we can all agree with Kimmel on that.
Yet on Sunday, Kimmel said on CBS that three years ago he was liked equally by Republican and Democrat viewers, but now his Republican numbers are down by a third. He has no regrets: “as a talk show host, that’s not ideal, but I would...

CRYPTIC ASSANGE TWEETS A SIGN OF COMING BUNKER BUSTER FOR HILLARY?
Hillary is cold and creepy? Say it ain’t so.
In a possible signal that trouble may be brewing for defeated but not vanquished Democrat Hillary Clinton, Julian Assange tweeter out a cryptic series of messages.
The WikiLeaks founder – who remains holed up in London’s Ecuadorian embassy – has been very quiet lately but that may be about to change.
The tweets included what appears to be an encryption key that could be used to open a Pandora’s box of woe for the unhinged leader of a government in exile.
Fox News host Sean Hannity is all over it.
It could signal an escalation is coming in the years running battle between Assange and...

Compare Hillary Clinton's conspiracy theories to what even Obama and his top US intelligence officials (Democratic appointees and not remotely neutral) say https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEu6kHRHYhU&t=30s …
There's something wrong with Hillary Clinton. It is not just her constant lying. It is not just that she throws off menacing glares and seethes thwarted entitlement. Watch closely. Something much darker rides along with it. A cold creepiness rarely seen. https://twitter.com/4corners/status/919654134000664576 …
People need to READ AND LEARN. @JulianAssange HAS THE TRUTH. We deserve the TRUTH https://twitter.com/julianassange/status/919666829873897472 …
Julian Assange-the ONE PERSON on earth that would know of alleged Trump/Russia Collusion. It’s time for Mueller & Justice Dept to GET INFO! https://twitter.com/julianassange/status/918925822567813123 …
No approach from Mueller, Senate & House intel committees, FBI, DoJ, or any other department, at any time on the issue. What is one to make of it?

"Comedian" George Lopez Booed After Trump Jokes Fall Flat at Charity Event
Comedian George Lopez was booed while performing at a charity gala last week after making several jokes against President Donald Trump, according to Page Six.
According to the report, Liberty Media CEO and Trump supporter Greg Maffei donated $250,000 to the event in aid of Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes but asked that Lopez steer clear of anti-Trump jokes. Lopez ignored this plea and continued to make Trump jokes, and tensions began to rise.
“George was asked nicely to stop making Trump jokes by a man in front row [Maffei] who just donated $250K,” an eyewitness told Page Six. “George doesn’t, continues. Gets booed.”
“Thank you for changing my opinion on old white men, but it doesn’t change the way I feel about orange men,” Lopez responded, before blaming the audience’s dissatisfaction on their “white privilege.”
“I apologize for bringing politics to an event. This is America — it still is. So I apologize to your white privilege,” Lopez added.
Video showing Lopez getting booed while on stage surfaced online:
