Chuck Schumer Under Investigation

BREAKING NEWS: Chuck Schumer Is in possible deep trouble as reports have surfaced that he is now Under Investigation For Threatening Supreme Court Interim D.C. U.S. Attorney Ed Martin opened a preliminary investigation into Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) over threatening comments he made to Supreme Court justices in 2020. And while I say about time! This goes back to when this leftist idiot was speaking on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court in March of that year, Schumer told Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorscuch that they will “pay a price” if they voted to overturn Roe V. Wade, which they ultimately did in 2022. “Over the last three years, women’s reproductive rights have come under attack in a way we haven’t seen in modern history. 

From Louisiana, to Missouri, to Texas, Republican legislatures are waging a war on women, all women, and they’re taking away fundamental rights,” Schumer declared. “I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you, if you go forward with these awful decisions.”

Schumer quickly walked his comments back while speaking from the Senate floor a few days later, stating that he was not threatening Supreme Court justices. In a non-apology, the top Senate Democrat stated that he “shouldn’t have used the words I did” while claiming that conservatives were attempting to “generate outrage” over his comments. 

He was later hit with an ethics complaint that went nowhere. In a January 21 letter that was obtained by the Washington Post, interim D.C. U.S. Attorney Ed Martin confirmed that he is opening a “preliminary inquiry” into Schumer’s threatening comments. “We take threats against public officials very seriously. I look forward to your cooperation,” Martin wrote in the letter, which was addressed to Schumer. 

The nation’s top elected Democrat has a history of making ominous, threatening comments towards his political opponents. During the opening stages of the bogus Russian collusion investigation, Schumer stated that President Trump was “really dumb” for “taking on” U.S. intelligence agencies before suggesting that there would be retribution. “Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.

“So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he’s being really dumb to do this.” In a separate memorandum issued Friday, acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove ordered the termination of dozens of prosecutors who worked on the politicized investigations into President Donald Trump and his allies. Bove stated that “subversive” prosecutors must be removed before they can hinder Martin’s work in the nation’s capital. 

“I will not tolerate subversive personnel actions by the previous Administration at any U.S. attorney’s office,” Bove wrote. An email sent by Martin informed recipients to preserve all documents relating to “personnel decisions regarding attorneys hired to support casework” regarding the January 6 Capitol protests.

Martin added that the new guidance was issued in accordance with President Trump’s directive to end the weaponization of government.

There can be few things worse in a civilized, law abiding nation, than a United States Senator openly, and for all to see and hear, threatening the Supreme Court or its Justices. This is what Chuck Schumer just did. He must pay a severe price for this!

Jeff Bezos To Step Down As Amazon's CEO

Amazon founder Jeff “Bozo” Bezos will step down as the company’s CEO (chief executive officer) this summer, after more than a quarter-century at the helm of the retail, logistics and tech powerhouse. He will hand over the CEO reins to Andy Jassy, the head of Amazon’s cash-cowcloud computing division.

Bezos has propelled the online bookseller he started in his Bellevue, Wash., garage in 1994 into a behemoth worth $1.7 trillion employing over 1.3 million people, with physical stores, delivery trucks, movies, Internet-connected cameras, a cloud business that props up the CIA and enough paying subscribers to populate the ninth-largest country on Earth.

Jassy has been at Amazon for much of its existence and is one of Bezos’ most trusted lieutenants. He served in the coveted role of the CEO’s “shadow” technical a role in which he accompanied Bezos to all his meetings to learn the business in 2003. After writing the original document that became the Amazon Web Services business plan, he has run the division since it formally launched in 2006.

“As much as I still tap dance into the office, I’m excited about this transition,” Bezos said in a letter to employees, announcing the end of his 27-year run. He said he planned to spend more time focused on philanthropy and other outside ventures.

“As Exec Chair I will stay engaged in important Amazon initiatives but also have the time and energy I need to focus on the Day 1 Fund, the Bezos Earth Fund, Blue Origin, The Washington Post, and my other passions,” he wrote. “I’ve never had more energy, and this isn’t about retiring. I’m super passionate about the impact I think these organizations can have.”

Cloud computing is Amazon’s biggest profit center, even as the company continues to profit tremendously from pandemic-fueled online shopping. On Tuesday, Amazon reported yet another record-setting quarter, with sales during the holiday season topping $125 billion. AWS alone raked in $3.6 billion in operating profit half of the company’s total.

While Bezos will become Amazon’s executive chairman and remain its biggest shareholder, the company said on Tuesday.

In recent years, Bezos had already largely stepped back from day-to-day role managing Amazon’s business, focusing on longer-term projects at the company and his outside projects including rocket company Blue Origin.

He did take a more hands-on approach during the early months of the pandemic last year, however, as demand for deliveries soared but also tested Amazon’s ability to keep up. AWS, which sells cloud computing services to other companies, also experienced surging demand as many people and businesses realigned for remote work.

“Jeff will continue to stay not only very involved, but have his fingerprints on a lot of areas of product development and innovation,” Amazon Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky told reporters on Tuesday. “So Jeff is really not going anywhere, it’s more of a restructuring of who’s doing what.”

For Jassy, moving up to the CEO role means taking on some of Amazon’s most pressing challenges. That includes a burgeoning labor movement: Workers in Alabama are about to vote on whether to become the company’s first unionized warehouse in the U.S., while white-collar staff and engineers at its headquarters in Seattle have pushed the company to get serious about addressing racial justice and the climate.

Amazon is also under growing the scrutiny from regulators and lawmakers in the U.S. and Europe who worry about its market dominance. Last summer, Bezos faced his first congressional grilling as part of the House Democrats’ investigation that concluded that Amazon, Google, Facebook and Apple are all monopolies. Now it will be up to Jassy to defend the company from critics who say it should be broken up.

Tuesday’s announcement also came on the same day as news that Amazon would pay over $61.7 million to settle the Federal Trade Commission’s charges that the company withheld some tips of its Flex delivery drivers’ over two and a half years. Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Major fail by the fake news Washington POST! WOW!

So President Donald Trump said most cities that had the most crime were ran by democRATS, and in an effort to make him look dumb the New York Post posted the following chart showing the highest crime cities. Once again folks it’s like they’re openly either trying to make him look right OR liberals, and the fake news people in the media are really this stupid.
