“Meathead” Rob Reiner launched an attack on first lady Melania Trump that left many people scratching their heads.

People were wondering what did Melania ever do to this Hollywood personality? Reiner claimed that first lady Melania got booed in Baltimore – there were some boos and some cheers that say more about the lack of respect those students had than anything else – because she married a criminal.

As most of us remember, President Trump had a feud with Rep. Cummings and others in Baltimore so if anything the students were reacting to that, but for Reiner, it was an opportunity to take a cheap shot at the first lady.

Breitbart reported that Hollywood actor-director Rob Reiner attacked First Lady Melania after she was booed on Tuesday as she took the stage to speak at a Baltimore high school about the opioid crisis crippling whole swaths of the country.

“Don’t think I’ve ever heard of a First Lady being booed. But when you’re married to a Criminal who’s destroying Democracy, it comes with the territory,” Rob Reiner said.

Reiner’s toxic tweet attacking first lady Melania Trump came just hours after his regularly schedule screed, in which he ceaselessly attempts to justify the impeachment of President Trump.

“There is no question: This President is a Criminal who has committed voluminous Impeachable Offenses. The evidence is overwhelming,” Reiner said on Monday.

“The path has been cleared for principal witnesses to testify. Be Patriots. Come forward. End this Nightmare. Save Democracy,” he added.

Day when President Trump donated quarter of his presidential salary to the fight against the opioid crisis, his wife made an appearance at a Baltimore youth summit on opioid awareness. “Charm City” Baltimore showed its less-than-charming side when Melania Trump was showered with abuse from the audience at the event.

The first lady went through with her remarks with the poise that could be expected from a woman who made a career in the fashion world before marrying a future president.

But it was the statement she made afterward that mattered the most.

“We live in a democracy and everyone is entitled to their opinion,” she said, as The New York Times reported. “I remain committed to educating children on the dangers and deadly consequences of drug abuse.”

And that is what being an adult looks like.

It was only few months ago that President Trump was engaged in a high-profile war of words with the now-deceased Baltimore Rep. Elijah Cummings over the disgraceful condition of parts of his congressional district.

These teenagers probably thought hostility toward the first lady was a chance for some public payback. But all they really did was prove they don’t know where the real problem is.

Corruption’s clearly a municipal issue in Baltimore, and where there’s crime in the halls of power, there’s going to be crime in the streets.

Not even the city’s defenders can deny the essential truth of President Trump’s charges – or the fact that decades of Democratic misrule have left Baltimore a disaster area.

Yet he teenagers in Baltimore want to boo Melania Trump?

If nothing else, the Baltimore crowd that booed the first lady got a real lesson in class.

Many conservatives on social media shared their critics towards the crowd in Baltimore.

Jerry Nadler is back and he is just as arrogant as ever. The House Judiciary Committee chair sent a letter to President Trump inviting him to partake in his new impeachment hearings.

The House Judiciary Committee just announced they have taken over for Adam Schiff and will hold their first hearing on Dec. 4.

They will define terms of the impending impeachment articles and ready the Dems for another battle.

Ultimately Jerry Nadler’s committee will recommend whether the Democrats walk the plank and actually vote to impeach President Trump.

With the effort doomed in the Senate, people are certainly wondering why the left is hell-bent on this course of action and Jerry Nadler is their last chance to avoid it.

Nadler did invite the President to attend the hearings and called it a privilege not a right for Trump in a typical arrogant fashion.

Time reported that the public hearing will be titled, “the impeachment inquiry into Donald J. Trump: constitutional grounds for presidential impeachment.” A panel of constitutional experts and authorities will explain the constitutional framework of high crimes and misdemeanors, though the experts have not yet been identified.

“This is a legal hearing. The law needs to apply to the evidence and facts that have been derived,” a Judiciary Committee aide said on a phone call with reporters.

Up until this point, the Judiciary Committee has largely been sidelined, with the House Intelligence Committee leading the inquiry and public hearings. The announcement of the hearing is the strongest sign yet the Dems are moving forward with the next step in the inquiry.

First lady Melania Trump was booed during a speech in Baltimore, as she was greeted with a mixed chorus of boos and applauds at a youth summit in the city President Trump referred to a “very dangerous place.”

The First Lady got an earful from the crowd when she was introduced Tuesday at the “B’More Youth Summit,” and the boos continued during her speech addressing the nation’s opioid crisis, as TMZ reported.

“Thank you to all of the students who are here. I am so proud of you for the bravery it takes to share that you have been strongly affected by the opioid epidemic in some way,” she said above the persistent talking in the audience in an auditorium at University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

The first lady touted her work with “Be Best,” which focuses on children’s well-being, online safety and opioid abuse.

“Promoting education and awareness on these issues will always be one of my top priorities. I am in this fight with you and I am fighting for you. I encourage you, if you are struggling with addiction right now, reach out for support — whether it’s a teacher, parent, friend, grandparent, coach or pastor, talk to an adult in your life that you trust. It is never too late to ask for help,” she told the crowd.

President Trump ripped the city of Baltimore back in July, referring to Rep. Elijah Cummings’ district, which includes parts of Baltimore, as a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess” and a “very dangerous and filthy place.”

The President was commenting the poor conditions in Baltimore because of how the city was run by the Dems, but the left didn’t wait long to spin his words as he of was attacking the people that lived there.

Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she doesn’t want to hear people refer to “free stuff” in reference to socialism.

“People like to say, ‘Oh this is about free stuff,’” Rep. Ocasio-Cortez said at a town hall in the Bronx over the weekend. “This is not about free stuff.”

“So i never want to hear the word ‘free stuff’ ever again!” said Rep. Ocasio-Cortez .

The Daily Caller posted a video where Rep. Ocasio Cortez can be seen advocating free stuff in the past.

AOC and her friends’ long list of ‘free stuff’ includes all student loan debt, and vow to even go steps further.

Rep. Ocasio Cortez once claimed that the student loans are destroying the U.S. economy, and in order to fix the problem the debt must be erased, no questions asked.

While advocating forgiving student loans, Rep. Ocasio Cortez also claimed that she also has a student loan herself.

“I will disclose my personal steak in this fight, because i have student loans too,” said Rep. Ocasio Cortez.

Maxine Water is finally responding to Ben Carson’s blistering letter where he among other things called Rep. Maxine shameless.

“I basically said to my staff, I really don’t have time to be bonded by somebody who does not know the difference between REO and OEO,” she started. “This guy just doesn’t have the background, the capability, the intelligence to do the job.”

“He does not know what he’s doing. He doesn’t care about this issue,” Maxine continued.

“He rises to the occasion to basically support the president, any opportunity that he gets. And so I am going to be so happy when they’re all out of here.”

“They are hurting our country,” she claimed. “They are undermining our democracy, and they’re being very destructive.”

“And I hope the American people can see that if we allow this president and his cabinet to get away with what they are doing, they will be destroying, you know, the presidency and that office forever,” she said.

The highlights of Ben’s letter are below, Maxine’s response in the appearance on MSNBC follows after that.

“Shamelessness is a career politician of 30 years laying blame. Shamelessness is allowing more than 55,000 Americans to live on the very streets they represent.”

“My mother always taught me that people shouldn’t throw rocks, especially while they live in a glass house.”

“Because of that wise lesson, I was a little surprised to read your hostile letter to President Trump regarding the record number of homeless Americans in California, particularly in your district,”

“To me, the most compassionate, obvious, and logical solution would be to get as many homeless Americans off the streets — with a roof over their heads — as soon as humanly possible.”

“I have sent multiple letters to your office and requested numerous meetings, but each time you’ve refused. Basic manners elude you, and it seems that instead of producing results, you’re more interested in producing cheap headlines at the President’s expense — like a true career politician.”

Ben Carson then wrote, “shamelessness is allowing anyone other than a biological female into a battered women’s shelter.”

Secretary of Energy Rick Perry believes that President Trump is the “chosen one” who was “sent by God to do great things.” He shared his perspective on the president and his mission appearing on an interview with Fox News’ Ed Henry which was previewed in a clip shown on “Fox & Friends” over the weekend.

“God’s used imperfect people all through history. King David wasn’t perfect. Saul wasn’t perfect. Solomon wasn’t perfect,” Perry said in the video clip.

“And I actually gave the president a little one-pager on those Old Testament kings about a month ago and I shared it with him,” the former Republican Texas governor said. “I said, ‘Mr. President, I know there are people that say you said you were the chosen one and I said, ‘You were.’ ”

“I said, ‘If you’re a believing Christian, you understand God’s plan for the people who rule and judge over us on this planet in our government,’ ” he added.

After showing the portion of the interview, Henry noted that Trump’s former GOP rival had also “pointed out to me he believes Barack Obama was sent by God as well, for that moment and that time.”

“He thinks at this moment and this time, Donald Trump was sent by God to do great things,” he added.

President Trump once referred to himself in similar terms, saying he was the “chosen one” when speaking about his trade war with China.

The President later dismissed the criticism of his comments by clarifying that he was just being sarcastic.

“You know exactly what I meant. It was sarcasm. It was joking, we were all smiling. And a question like that is just fake news,” the President told reporters.

Pete Hegseth noted during the “Fox & Friends” clip that many of Trump’s supporters “feel precisely the same way” as Perry.

“They hear the attacks from the media about who he is and his background and they dismiss it and say, God has used imperfect people forever,” Hegseth said, adding that what the president “has withstood is unlike what really any other mortal could understand.”

Perry’s comments about President Trump being chosen for this time was understandable to many Christians who see God in control of the universe, but others who misunderstand the concept simply recoiled at the idea that God would allow, let alone choose, Trump to be president.

The White House will not stop a Navy SEAL accused of war crimes from facing a peer review that may lead to his ouster from the elite force, said a U.S. official who also stated that the Navy was notified of the decision on Friday.

At least for now, the decision defuses a potential clash between President Trump and top U.S. Navy officials planning to convene a panel to decide if Special Operations Chief Edward Gallagher should remain a SEAL, or be stripped of the trident pin denoting membership in the group.

The President had said in a tweet on Thursday that he would not let the Navy strip Gallagher of the pin.

Navy Seal Eddie Gallagher was demoted in rank and pay grade after being convicted by a military jury in July of illegally posing for pictures with the corpse of an Islamic State fighter. However, earlier this month President Trump ordered the Navy to restore his status.

Gallagher, 40, had been charged and acquitted of more serious offenses, including murder.

On Sunday, Gallagher appeared on Fox News Channel, and indicated that he hoped to retire on Nov. 30th, “without the board” convening to decide whether he can continue to be a SEAL, considered among the most elite of U.S. fighting forces.

When Navy officials subsequently said they were launching a separate peer review process to consider whether Gallagher was fit to remain a SEAL, President Trump balked.

“The Navy will NOT be taking away Warfighter and Navy Seal Eddie Gallagher’s Trident Pin,” President Trump said on Twitter.

The President’s comment raised concerns about whether Trump was undercutting the authority of Navy commanders.

On Friday, U.S. Secretary of the Navy Richard Spencer said that Gallagher’s continued membership in the SEALS should be decided by a board of his peers because “the process matters for good order and discipline.”

President Trump, without commenting on Gallagher’s possible expulsion from the SEALS or the decision to let the process move forward, on Sunday promoted Gallagher’s Fox News interview in a tweet, and added “have no fear, all will end well for everyone!”

The Justice Department Inspector General found evidence “that an FBI lawyer manipulated a key investigative document related to the FBI’s secretive surveillance” of former Trump aide, Carter Page, as Fox News reported.

The outlet also reported that the edit was “enough to change the substantive meaning of the document.”

The revelation represents the first of many details from the report, which is due out in full next week, according to sources within the Justice Department. Attorney General Bill Barr alluded to the report early last week, telling media that Inspector General Michael Horowitz had completed his investigation, authored his report, and spoken with officials named in the report in order to clear the way for publication.

The full report, which will be released on December 9th, is also expected to demonstrate a number of irregularities with the FBI’s investigation into whether members of the Trump campaign, and, subsequently, the Trump transition team, coordinated with Russian officials to first alter the outcome of the 2016 presidential election and then install an information and communication pipeline between the Kremlin and President Trump in the West Wing.

In House Intelligence Committee hearings last year – commanded by Republicans who were then in charge – witnesses claimed that the FBI and DOJ relied on a now-discredited dossier on President Trump, authored by foreign agent Christopher Steele, to obtain permission to wiretap key Trump transition officials through the FISA courts, the Daily Wire reported.

Then Attorney General Jeff Sessions commanded the Inspector General undertake an investigation into the incident, and it seems the Horowitz found at least some evidence of FBI malfeasance.

“Horowitz reportedly found that the FBI employee was involved enough in the FISA process to falsely state that he had ‘documentation to back up a claim he had made in discussions with the Justice Department about the factual basis’ for the FISA warrant application,” according to Fox News, quoting the Washington Post. “Then, the FBI employee allegedly ‘altered an email’ to substantiate his inaccurate version of events. The employee has since been forced out of the bureau.”

Neither the WP nor Fox News identified the official, and both suggested the report doesn’t identify him either, but Fox News says, the WP initially reported that the “person under scrutiny…worked beneath former deputy assistant director Peter Strzok,” the FBI agent whose clear bias against President Trump tainted the investigation.

Fox News reported that the WP later removed that tidbit for unknown reasons.
