2…………> No FBI Investigation On Kavanaugh Accuser: Trump

 

President Trump said that he will not order the FBI to investigate claims of sexual assault made against his Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, despite a frivolous claim by Christine Blasey Ford who accused the judge of assaulting her at a party in the 1980s.

She demanded an FBI investigation into her claims, but Mr. Trump does not think it’s necessary, saying that Mr. Kavanaugh is ‘an outstanding man.’

Professor Blasey Ford’s lawyers say their client has been the target of “vicious harassment and even death threats” since coming forward. They said her family had relocated.

3…………>  Fort Trump: Poland 

 

President Trump has said he is “seriously considering” a Polish request that Washington builds a new military base in the country, as he and his Polish counterpart, Andrzej Duda, raised the prospect of building a new US military base in Poland.

Duda even suggested it might be named Fort Trump at the joint press conference in Washington, stressing Poland’s “very strategic location” and pointing to the need for an expanded US presence to counter Russia’s aggressive behavior. 
Poland’s former foreign minister, Radoslaw Sikorski, for instance, told DW’s Zhanna Nemtsova: “I worked very hard to bring it about. We want in Poland the kind of allied forces that would deter Russia but not threaten Russia.”

4…………> Alfredo Ortiz: Flourishing Hispanics

 

“President Trump’s economy is the rising tide that is lifting all boats. This is especially true for Hispanics, who were among the biggest victims of the low-growth, high-regulation economy under President Obama,” Job Creators Network CEO Alfredo Ortiz writes in The Hill.

“Last week, the Census Bureau announced new household income numbers, which showed that median income for Hispanic households grew by 3.7 percent, adjusted for inflation, last year. That’s more than double the increase seen by all households . . . That’s welcome news as the nation celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month.”

1…………> A New Moulin Rouge Star: Aussie Girl

 

Aussie girl Rhylee Hensler, 19, recently made a move to the world’s most romantic city, Paris, to join its most famous cabaret, the Moulin Rouge, an assignment that has been every young dancer’s dream and has even inspired a movie,  far away from her home of Cairns in far north Queensland, 

However, behind the make-up, feathers, and crystals, it takes a lot of courage and determination, as well as hard work, to make it as a showgirl, being one of only three dancers to cut the Australian auditions and only a handful from across the world.

Moulin Rouge associate artistic director Janet Pharaoh had been looking for something specific, and Ms. Hensler, who started dancing at age 10, checked all the boxes.

“The girls must have strong classical dance training, be a minimum of 5 feet and 9 inches tall, or taller,” Ms. Pharaoh said.
“We also like them to have super figures, very long legs, and a fabulous personality.”

“I feel fortunate to be in Paris, a city that is just incredible,” Ms. Hensler said.
“My first show on the Moulin Rouge stage was incredible, so much fun and energy, and everyone who works at Moulin is so nice and friendly.”

2…………> Back Home: Korea MIA

 

North Korea has transferred the remains of an unspecified number of soldiers killed in the Korean War, the first step by Pyongyang to implement an agreement made in a landmark summit in Singapore after a formal repatriation ceremony is being held in Osan before the remains are flown to Hawaii.

The repatriation was held on the 65th anniversary of the 1953 armistice agreement, and North Korea could follow the return with a push to end the war formally

“Today, [Comrade Un] is fulfilling part of the commitment he made to the President to return our fallen American service members,” the White House said in a statement.
“We are encouraged by North Korea’s actions and the momentum for positive change.”

A US military transport plane flew to an airfield in North Korea’s north-eastern city of Wonsan to bring the remains to Osan air base in South Korea, then back to Hawaii.

4…………> Puppy Mules: Drug Cartels


Colombian veterinarian Andres Lopez Elorza pleaded not guilty to DOJ charges that he used his surgical skills to turn puppies into drug mules by stitching packets of liquid heroin into their abdomens.

“As alleged in the indictment, Elorza is not only a drug trafficker, he also betrayed a veterinarian’s pledge to prevent animal suffering when he used his surgical skills in a cruel scheme to smuggle heroin in the abdomens of puppies,” US Attorney Richard P. Donoghue said.

“Dogs are man’s best friend and, as the defendant is about to learn, we are drug dealers’ worst enemy,” the attorney added.

5…………>  Mueller Illegal Trap: Destination Trump


A New York Times “leaked list” of questions supposedly being on Robert Mueller’s interrogation roster of President Donald Trump tentative interview is like an endlessly rotating 45 rpm phonograph record of all already disproved by Congressional committees Russia-related controversies surrounding his campaign and the early days of his presidency.

 

The president tweeted that it was disgraceful the questions were made public and claimed that their topics proved there was no “collusion”.

The only question now is for how long Mr. Trump will allow this outrage to continue, order AG Sessions to fire Rod Rosenstein and dismantle Robert Muller’s “snake pit” by finally starting to use his full presidential discretion and power.
