President Trump honors the nations’ veterans at the Celebrate Freedom rally in Washington D.C.
During the ceremony, President Trump highlighted the newly signed Veteran’s Accountability Act, which gives the government the ability to fire workers who don’t pull their weight at the VA.
The President also talked about how his administration is trying to improve services for those who have fought for America, and said the forgotten men and women of this country will never be forgotten again.
“I will never stop fighting for you. I am delivering on trade, on the economy, on the Supreme Court, on the Second Amendment, on our military, for our veterans and on our borders,” he said.
President Trump then shared stories of bravery from our nation’s veterans, praising them for fighting for our freedom and saying they are the true example of American values.
The commander-in-chief also talked about religious freedom, and ended his speech by saying that if we have pride in our beliefs and faith in our god, we will not fail.

Comments from America:

I am starting to think that Trump is the perfect President for our time. He honors ALL Americans who sacrificed for our country. He is humble before God. At 70 years old, he gave up an easy life as a multi-billionaire to work his ass off and kick ass to help this country.
He is God's miracle for all who have prayed for this country. His election victory from being so down in EVERY poll on election eve is nothing less than God's will.
Think about it.

I have always said that God put him in the Oval Office, not the voters. Democrats are feeling God's Wrath, for mocking HIM in 2012. I remember watching them on TV, at the DNC, taking the vote to kick God out of the Platform of their Party, and could not believe it. I knew right then, God would punish these godless Democrats, and they have been losing every time they turn around today. Something like 3000 Democratic loses all over America, State and Federal, I read not long ago. Yes, God's hand is against his Enemies, as it should be. Sad thing is, the Democrats are too blind to realize it.

Trump's 'feds' now in Chicago to fight gun violence 'epidemic'

Months after taking to Twitter to say he would send in "the Feds" to help reduce Chicago's murder rate, President Trump's administration has sent in agents to combat the ongoing violence.
The Chicago Sun-Times first reported that about 20 additional agents with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have been sent to the city.
Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions confirmed Friday that the federal government is sending help, while decrying the crime epidemic on the city's streets.
"Crime and killings in Chicago have reached such epidemic proportions that I am sending in Federal help. 1714 shootings in Chicago this year!" Trump tweeted.
Sessions also told "Fox & Friends" that his department is assisting.
“We’ll have an impact in reducing shootings in Chicago,” he said, while saying police there are “demoralized” and city policies are not working.
“Murders are way, way too high,” he said.
Sessions subsequently released a written statement saying the administration has created the Chicago Gun Strike Force and is sending “20 more permanent ATF agents to Chicago, reallocating federal prosecutors and prioritizing prosecutions to reduce gun violence” and working with law enforcement partners.
“The Trump Administration will not let the bloodshed go on; we cannot accept these levels of violence,” he said.
Shortly after his inauguration, Trump tweeted "If Chicago doesn't fix the horrible "carnage" going on, 228 shootings in 2017 with 42 killings (up 24% from 2016), I will send in the Feds!"
HOW COULD TRUMP 'SEND IN THE FEDS' TO CHICAGO?
The new set of agents will work with counterparts from the Chicago Police Department and Illinois State Police on a strike force to solve shootings and arrest gun traffickers, according to the Sun-Times.
Included in the strike force are prosecutors from the U.S. attorney's office and Cook County state's attorney's office, the Sun-Times reports, who will decided whether suspects in gun crime should be charged in state of federal court
“The goal is the prosecute as many of these guys as possible federally where they will serve longer prison terms,” Anthony Riccio, head of the Chicago Police Department’s organized crime unit, told the newspaper.
Trump has previously voiced concern about violence in Chicago. Earlier in January, he posted, “If Mayor can’t do it he must ask for Federal help!”

Tucker on SF's $190K Payout to Illegal Immigrant: 'You Shouldn't Pay a Criminal for Breaking the Law'

Just give them free money from the tax payer and they'll be happy :-)

An illegal immigrant is set to be awarded $190,000 from San Francisco after police turned him over to immigration authorities, which is a violation of the city's sanctuary policy.
Pedro Figueroa-Zarceno, who is from El Salvador and was living in the U.S. illegally, walked into a police station on December 2, 2015, to recover his stolen car. When he left the station, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) immediately took him into custody.
Figueroa-Zarceno recently reached the massive settlement agreement with the city attorney's office. The agreement must be approved by the city's Board of Supervisors.
Immigration advocate Roberto Hernandez joined Tucker Carlson tonight to debate the controversial payout.
Tucker argued it's "insane" that the city is paying Hernandez because they actually enforced U.S. federal immigration law.
"You shouldn't pay a criminal for breaking the law," Tucker said. "And that's what San Francisco is doing."

Federal Judge Puts Hold on Calif. Gun Control Law

A federal judge is putting a temporary block on a California gun control law that prohibits weapon owners from owning large capacity magazines.
The San Diego-based judge made the ruling Thursday at the request of the National Rifle Association.
The NRA says the law infringes on the second amendment.
The law requiring citizens turn in magazines holding more than 10 rounds was approved by California voters last November.
Proponents of the bill claimed the law was necessary to prevent future mass shootings.

Dem. State Officials from 3 States Refuse to Give Voter Information

Democratic state officials say they refused a request for voter data from the president’s Commission on Election Integrity.
On Thursday, the commission sent requests to all 50 states for voter information, including names, birthdays, voting history, and the last four digits of social security numbers.
A spokesperson says the information would be made available to the public, however; state representatives from Virginia, California, and Kentucky say they will not comply with the request.
The states claim the information is an invasion of voter privacy.
The president signed an executive order in May creating the commission to promote fair and honest federal elections.

MSNBC Cartoons

MSNBC fires Greta Van Susteren, replaces her with liberal host

Should not have left Fox News :-)

Greta Van Susteren is out at MSNBC less than six months after she started at the cable channel.
Van Susteren broke the news of her own ouster Thursday, tweeting "I'm out at MSNBC" shortly before the network issued its own announcement. Van Susteren's husband, John Coale, told CNNMoney, "They let her go," and added that she and MSNBC were "working out contract issues now."
CNNMoney also reported that Van Susteren was given no prior notice of the decision and was told her on-air presence was not "confrontational enough."
MSNBC said that Van Susteren's nightly 6 p.m. show would be replaced with one hosted by Ari Melber, MSNBC's chief legal correspondent who also hosts his own weekend show, "The Point."
The reliably liberal Melber worked on John Kerry's 2004 presidential campaign and also served as a legislative aide to Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., before attending law school and moving into media work.
Van Susteren's Washington-based show, "For the Record," debuted on Jan. 9. Her 14-year run at Fox News ended this past summer. Before that, she had her own show at CNN.
The program was the least-watched show on MSNBC between 5 p.m. and midnight both Monday and Tuesday of this week, according to the Nielsen company.
On Monday, for example, MSNBC's "Meet the Press Daily" at 5 p.m. had 970,000 viewers, and Van Susteren's show dipped to 797,000. When Chris Matthews' "Hardball" started at 7 p.m., the network's audience jumped to 1.45 million, Nielsen said.
The show is ending despite the public backing of Van Susteren's friend and MSNBC's most popular host, Rachel Maddow.
In a note to staff, MSNBC President Phil Griffin called Van Susteren "a well-regarded television veteran and one of only a few broadcasters who can say they've hosted shows at all three major cable news networks. We are grateful to her and wish her the best."

San Francisco to pay $190G to undocumented immigrant over sanctuary law violation, lawyer says

Frigging Unbelievable!

A man from El Salvador in the U.S. illegally who sued San Francisco after police turned him over to immigration authorities in violation of the city's sanctuary law is set to be awarded $190,000, his attorney said Thursday.
Pedro Figueroa-Zarceno, 33, reached the settlement agreement with the city attorney's office, said Saira Hussain, a staff attorney at the Asian Law Caucus who represented Zarceno. The agreement must be approved by the Board of Supervisors.
“It’s really important for San Francisco to remain a sanctuary city not in name only but also in practice,” Hussain told The San Francisco Examiner. “Our hope is that the department is going to look into this further and really examine the way that the department can do more."
Figueroa-Zarceno sued San Francisco in January for violating its sanctuary city law.
The construction worker said he went to police in December 2015 after getting a call from authorities that his stolen car had been found. Instead of helping him, he said, officers detained him and called immigration authorities.
He was taken into custody by federal authorities outside the police station and was in jail for two months. He has been fighting his deportation since his release.
"What happened to me was very unfair and it was an injustice," Figueroa-Zerceno said. "I went into the police station to seek help and they didn't tell me what was happening and they arrested me and treated me badly."
City law prohibits law enforcement officers from cooperating with federal immigration officials except when violent criminals are involved.
Part of the law's purpose was to encourage immigrants to report crimes they may be afraid of disclosing because of fear that investigating officers would turn them over to immigration authorities.
San Francisco's sanctuary law was thrust into the national debate on immigration after the July 2015 slaying of 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle.
The man charged with murder in Steinle's slaying, Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, had been released by San Francisco sheriff's officials months earlier despite a request by immigration officials to keep him behind bars.
House Republicans took action Thursday to crack down on illegal immigrants and the cities that shelter them.
One bill passed by the House would deny federal grants to sanctuary cities and another, Kate’s Law, would increase the penalties for deported aliens who try to return to the United States.
