The Party of 'Inclusion' Just Told Winsome Earle-Sears to Go Back Where She Didn't Come From

Can you imagine letting your hate consume you so much that you would shout something racist at a politician you don’t agree with — and potentially embarrass your son at his football game? That didn’t bother Scott Pogorelc.

At the James Madison University football game on Saturday, Pogorelc shouted at Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears (R-Va.), who is the GOP nominee in Virginia’s race for governor, to “Go back to Haiti” and called her a “traitor.” And someone caught the racist dolt on camera.

Classy, amirite? For the record, Earle-Sears was born in Jamaica, not Haiti, and she’s an American citizen. As for "Traitor", given her history

Pogorelc is also the father of one of JMU’s players. His son is a senior offensive lineman, and regardless of his politics, I can’t help but think that James Pogorelc might think that his dad is embarrassing.

Pogorelc is a profligate donor to Virginia Democrats, as is his wife, Patricia. He made multiple donations to Abigail Spanberger, Earle-Sears’ opponent, when Spanberger ran for Congress in 2020. He also donated to Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) — you know, the guy who tried to tell us that our rights come from government, not God.

But here’s the kicker: Pogorelc works for Zeta Associates, a division of Lockheed Martin, and works on Department of War and Air Force contracts. We can only assume that he has high security clearance — but should he?

Winsome Earle-Sears was brought to the US when she was age 6, so almost all of her upbringing was in the US, including US schools. As an adult, she served ~3 years in the USMC, reaching the rank of corporal. As for "Traitor", given her history, which includes managing a homeless shelter, the only meaning apparent to me would be "Race Traitor" for being off the Dem Plantation.

Florida Sues California, Washington State, for Allegedly Ignoring Federal Commercial Driving Rules

https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/florida-sues-california-washington-state-for-allegedly-ignoring-federal-commercial-driving-rules-5931341?utm_source=partner&utm_campaign=BonginoReport&src_src=partner&src_cmp=BonginoReport

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier said his state is suing California and Washington state over their policy of allegedly ignoring federal rules regarding the issuance of commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs).

The new lawsuit comes weeks after the federal government unveiled stricter criteria for the issuance of CDLs.

Uthmeier made the statement on his official website on Oct. 16, indicating that the lawsuit has been filed with the U.S. Supreme Court. The nation’s highest court has not yet docketed the lawsuit.
The U.S. Constitution gives the Supreme Court original jurisdiction, or authority, to try disputes between the states as a court of first impression. In such cases, the court often appoints a judicial officer called a special master to hear the case and issue a recommendation to the justices on how to rule.

“California’s and Washington’s open defiance of federal immigration laws is well-documented,” according to Florida’s proposed bill of complaint.
...
Federal law provides that states issuing CDLs adhere to safety and immigration status standards, but California and Washington “ignore these standards and authorize illegal immigrants without proper training or the ability to read road signs to drive commercial motor vehicles,” the document said.

The two states are endangering citizens in their own states and other states that obey federal law and adhere to CDL safety standards, according to the complaint.

Every non-moronic state government (= not Dem-dominated) should join as parties with FL in this lawsuit!

Zohran Mamdani campaign staffer caught saying ‘who gives a s–t’ what cops think of NYC mayoral front-runner: video

https://nypost.com/2025/10/17/us-news/zohran-mamdanis-top-campaign-staffer-caught-saying-who-gives-a-s-t-what-cops-think-of-nyc-mayoral-front-runner-video/?utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=nypost&utm_source=twitter

A campaign staffer for Zohran Mamdani was apparently caught on hidden camera admitting “who gives a s–t” what police officers think of the Democratic mayoral nominee.

“They’re city employees. You get told what to do, shut up. When did you get an opinion?” Robert Akleh, a progressive political consultant and the citywide canvass manager for the campaign, can be seen telling an “undercover” operative for conservative podcaster Steven Crowder about NYPD cops’ opinion of the front-runner socialist candidate.

If Mamdani is elected mayor, NYPD will face two issues/problems (about which Mamdani won't give a @#$%): 6-12 months of officers bailing; a term-long recruitment collapse. As that excrement hits the air circulation device, Mamdani will beclown himself with his "alternatives" and citizens of NYC will turn against him.

Fact Check: Trump Did NOT Post a 'Huge Thank You' to 'No Kings' Protesters

Did President Donald Trump thank "No Kings" protesters in a widely-shared Truth Social post in June 2025? No, that's not true: An apparent screenshot of such a post was in fact fake. Trump did not write "I was very concerned a king was trying to take my place, but thanks to your tireless efforts, I AM STILL YOUR PRESIDENT!"

The fake screenshot appeared in a June 15, 2025, post on X (archived here). It read:

In reality, Trump never posted any such message on Truth Social, and the screenshot was the result of digital editing.

Lead Stories reviewed Trump's account on Truth Social on June 16, and did not see any such post published recently. Furthermore, a Google search for the phrase "I am still your president" limited to links containing truthsocial.com/@realdonaldtrump (using the "site:" search operator) returned no results, indicating Google didn't recently index such a post.

Trump's Truth, a website that archives Trump's Truth Social posts, did not contain any posts with the phrase "I am still your president".

Personally, I'm a bit disappointed this one is fake.  It would be a better troll than most of the ones Trump has been doing lately, IMHO.
