Donald Trump – “I Don’t Know” If Ted Cruz is a Natural Born Citizen – Video

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump was asked straight up about his closest competitor, Ted Cruz, and whether he thought Cruz – who was born in Calgary Canada – is a Natural Born citizen. Trump for a change, answered honestly.

“I don’t know,” Donald Trump answered, when the question – do you have any doubts that Ted Cruz is a natural born American citizen – was posed by Fox News’ Chris Wallace.

“I really don’t know. It depends. Does “Natural Born” mean born to the land? Meaning born on the land? In that case, he’s not. But nobody knows what it means. And it hasn’t been adjudicated. And it hasn’t gone to the Supreme Court.”

Trump concluded by saying that if Ted Cruz is the Republican nominee, he will have a “lawsuit over his head” from the Democratic contender.

Alan Grayson already has a lawsuit lined up and waiting just in case Cruz is the Republican nominee.

Paul Ryan Admits – Republicans Have No Alternative Plan for Obamacare – Video

Like his predecessor before him, Paul Ryan promised a new tone in Washington when he took over the gavel from then Speaker John Boehner. And one of the places Republicans promised to be different was on Obamacare, promising to have an alternative plan available for the millions of Americans benefiting from Obamacare, before trying to repeal their healthcare.

Well, if you missed it, Republicans tried to repeal Obamacare again, and again, there was no plan in the unlikely event their repeal efforts were to succeed. Obviously, their repeal effort didn’t succeed, as President Obama vetoed the measure. But House Speaker Paul Ryan was asked about the plan on Sunday’s Face The Nation, and was forced to admit that there is no plan for healthcare if Obamacare is repealed.

“You said that you wanted the Republicans to offer an alternative to the president,” CBS host John Dickerson reminded Ryan in an interview that aired on Sunday. “One of the first things you did this year, though, was offer that [Obamacare] repeal.”

“How is than an alternative?” Dickerson wondered.

“It’s not,” Ryan replied, laughing. “It’s why we have to come up with an alternative. So, you’re right about that one.”

“Will you?” Dickerson pressed.

“Absolutely,” Ryan insisted. “My goal — I don’t know how far it will go given we have a filibuster and a guy named Obama who’s not going to replace Obamacare — but my goal is that, we as Republicans, if we don’t like these laws, don’t like the direction the country is going, I think we have to be more than just an opposition party.”

Cleveland Cop Suspended – Calls Tamir Rice’s Mom a “Stupid Bit*h”

“To protect and to Serve”

After the 12-year-old child was gunned down at a playground in Ohio, it took a year for a grand jury to find no wrong doings against the officer who gunned down the child, just 2 seconds after he got on the scene. The officers clearly won that battle – a black kid is dead and the cop that killed the child is set free – but apparently, one Cleveland police officer, Matt Cicero, is not done serving the family of Tamir Rice just yet.

In a totally unnecessary Facebook rant, the Cleveland police officer unloaded his arsenal once again on Tamir Rice’s family, calling Tamir’s mom a “stupid b***h”

‘Tamir rices momma just want money,’ he wrote. ‘Lets make the proper changes……raise your kids not to play with fake guns stupid b***h.

‘All this media because the are not getting what they want…… Again pleeeeze anyone who does not like what I post…..unfriendly me or block me your not worth my time.’

When someone objected to the message, insisting that a child playing with a toy gun “did not become a sold platform for the death penalty” and that the cop responsible should have been charge with negligent homicide, Cicero was quick to respond. 

He wrote: “You pull out a gun you get shot. I don’t have time to ask questions and coddle kids that wave guns around.”

Cicero also posted a meme of a man holding up two guns to the camera with the caption ‘Quick, which one is a BB gun? Oops, too late… you’re dead.’

The school police officer, who worked in the same district as Tamir Rice, has since taken down all his social media pages.

Cleveland Metropolitan School District spokeswoman Roseann Canfora confirmed to Raw Story that Cicero had been placed on administrative leave while an investigation was underway.

Muslim Woman Kicked Out of Trump Rally Because She Peacefully Stood Up – Video

Rosa Parks sat down at the front of a bus and received the wrath of the racists among her. Rose Hamid stood up at a Donald Trump rally and received the same wrath from the racists among her. Two different incidents at two different times in American history, same racist outcome.

Rose Hamid, a 56-year-old flight attendant, told CNN that she went to the rally wearing a t-shirt that read “I come in peace” because she “figured that most Trump supporters probably never met a Muslim so I figured that I’d give them the opportunity to meet one.”

When Trump claimed that Syrian refugees fleeing violence in Syria were affiliated with ISIS, Hamid and a friend stood up from their seats. Soon enough, security came to escort her out. The crowd, as it is wont to do at a Trump rally, saw the opportunity as a pulpit to better explain their candidate’s foreign policy ideas, telling Hamid to “Get out” and shouting “You have a bomb, you have a bomb,” she says.

“The crowd got this like, hateful crowd mentality as I was being escorted. It was really quite telling, and a vivid example of what happens when you start using this hateful rhetoric and how it can incite a crowd, where moments ago [it] was very kind to me.”

Michael Moore Wants Rick Snyder Arrested for Poisoning Kids in Flint

Why? Because of this insane plan by the ruling Republican party in Michigan to take away the people’s voice to save money.

Michael Moore explains this further in the video below, but their plan was to void the people’s vote by installing appointed officials to run the city, instead of those who were elected. One of these Snyder appointed officials thought that the people of Flint Michigan would be better served if they drank water from the Flint River instead of getting their water supplied from Michigan.

Almost immediately, doctors in Flint and other researchers told the Snyder administration that high levels of lead were found and the children of Flint, but their concerns fell on deaf ears as Snyder stuck with his appointed official to save money.

To hell with the kids.

Obamacare Enrollment Numbers – 11.3 Million Since November

While Republicans continue to waste taxpayers money with yet another futile repeal effort, the health care reform known as Obamacare has topped 11.3 million national sign ups this enrollment season.

About 8.6 million people signed up for plans on HealthCare.gov since Nov. 1, and another 2.7 million signed up on the state-based exchanges, officials said.

Nearly 4 million people under age 35 nationally signed up for Obamacare plans. That number is important: The 18-to-34-year-old demographic is closely watched, because younger customers tend to spend more into the health plans than they cost in benefits. Almost 3 million of the sign-ups came from those young adults.

“We’re encouraged that marketplace consumers are increasingly young, engaged and shopping for the best plan,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell. “We have more work to do before the next deadlines, and our focus continues to be the consumer experience and educating consumers about available financial assistance and their choices.”

No, Ted Cruz’s “Natural Birth” Status is Not Settled Law – Video

Seems to me there’s too much controversy surrounding Ted Cruz’s birth to take his presidential ambitio1n seriously.

Although some may say Cruz, who was born in Canada, is a Natural Born U.S citizen base on a Harvard Law study, a more recent and in depth study from Boston University suggests otherwise.

Donald Trump – Kick Him Out in the Cold Without His Jacket – Video

And to Donald Trump we go for yet another episode of Things a Presidential Candidate Should Never Say or Do. 

In a rally tonight in Vermont, hecklers threw Donald Trump completely off his C game, causing the Entertainer-in-Chief to demand the heckler be thrown out in the cold without his jacket. And according to Trump, it was about 10 degrees below zero outside.

“Get him outta there,” Trump demanded. “Don’t give him his coat! Keep his coat. Confiscate his coat. You know it’s about ten degrees below zero outside. No, you can keep his coat. Tell him we’ll send it to him in a couple of weeks.”

Fox News – Obama was “Faking” His Tears by Putting “Pepper” By His Eyes – Video

The President recently spoke about guns and the deaths of so many American citizens at the hands of crazed lunatics with guns. But when he mentioned the Sandy Hook massacre where 20 kids and 6 adults were senselessly slaughtered, he had to wipe away the tears, a natural emotion that many onlookers understood.

Except over at the “Fair and Balanced” network of Fox News, where one commentator actually said the president placed peppers by his eyes to allow the tears to flow.

“Obama was clearly faking his crying.” said Michael Gunzelman of WABC radio. “He put pepper to his eye and that’s how he started to cry.”

Why this network is considered a “news” network is beyond me. But then again, I can totally understand why one study found that watching Fox News makes you “stupid.”

John McCain – Ted Cruz’s Canadian Birth Might Be an Issue

Canadian born Ted Cruz recently renounced his Canadian citizenship and is now trying to be an American president.

In addition to Donald Trump and others – even some in Cruz’s own Republican party – the questions are swirling. Can someone born in another country be a Natural Born U.S citizen.

John McCain is rightfully questioning how Ted Cruz, who held dual citizenship and thus, considered himself a Canadian a little over a year ago, can now run for president of the United States.

In an interview Wednesday on Phoenix radio station 550 KFYI’s Chris Merill Show, McCain said he “doesn’t know” whether Cruz’s birth in Canada makes him eligible to be president. Cruz, whose father was born in Cuba, asserts that he is a U.S. citizen because his mother was an American.

“I know that came up in my race because I was born in Panama, but I was born in the Canal Zone which is a territory. Barry Goldwater was born in Arizona when it was territory when he ran in 1964,” McCain said.

“That’s different from being born on foreign soil. I think there is a question. I’m not a constitutional scholar on that, but I think it’s worth looking into. I don’t think it’s illegitimate to look into it.”

Asked if the Supreme Court might have to weigh in on the “natural born citizen” issue, McCain said, “It may be, that may be the case.”
