She said the main goal is to evacuate the area. “As the mayor indicated, the initial call was from CMC Recycling. The employees reported [that they] found a box that possibly contained explosives. When they went to open that box in their normal procedures, they discovered it potentially had explosives and then they notified us,” said KPD spokesperson Scott Erland. “We have since verified that we also believe that this contains potential explosives. The problem that we have right now is the box is smoking. So, for the bomb squad, we’re kind of in a wait-and-see mode because anything the bomb squad does has the potential to upset that box. So, the main priority right now is the evacuations and those efforts are ongoing with KPD, KFD and THP.” WATCH:

Hillary Clinton seems hellbent on proving to us just how much she hates America, Americans and our Constitution.  Especially the First Amendment. As we reported here at WLTReport: At this point in the game, I think it might just be too much for the anti-freedom democrats to hold their tongues.  They are still lying — don’t get me wrong.  But there are some issues that they just can’t seem to hold back on. And I’m glad.  The more they talk… the more clarity the American voter gets on just how controlling, tyrannical, and oppressive they really are. Oh, look — here’s a perfect example!  Hillary Clinton just sat down for an interview with CNN’s Michael Smerconish last night.  And of course, the primary topic was the desperate need to safeguard and protect the Constitutional 1st Amendment for every American and thereby guarantee the life of our Republic by prioritizing it’s lifeblood; namely, freedom of speech. Yeah, right.  Watch this, and see if you can tell how sarcastic I was really being just then. Hillary Clinton calls for mass censorship of American citizens or “we lose total control.”pic.twitter.com/g4XNXDcLC1 — The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) October 5, 2024 Yeah, she’s not exactly a big fan of free speech.  She likes to SAY that she is, just like Kamala likes to SAY that she’s pro-2nd Amendment!  Of course, Kamala also said that she has a gun, and would shoot an intruder if anyone ever broke into her house; and that was right before her campaign had to backtrack and explain that she was just joking… she doesn’t own a gun. See how that works?  On some things they lie.  And on other things… they flat out tell the truth; but they lie about the danger that’ll materialize if you don’t OBEY their need for control!  One way or another — they are either lying with lies, or lying with the truth.  Even when they’re telling the truth they’re being deceitful!  Age of deceit?  I’d say so. The crazy thing is… wait — I can’t believe I just said “the” crazy thing.  ONE of the crazy things about this is that she doesn’t just want censorship.  That would be bad enough!  And she doesn’t just want REPURCUSSIONS for saying the “wrong” things.  She specifically wants “deterrence”.  She just recently pushed for jailing Americans for posting what she says is “misinformation”. Keep in mind… 90% of what I have written today (just today!), would get me locked behind bars in Hillary Clinton’s world and in Kamala Harris’ world.  Watch this… and then let’s talk: BREAKING: Hillary Clinton suggests jailing Americans for posting “misinformation” “There needs to be deterrence” pic.twitter.com/soxI3wl7To — End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) September 17, 2024 Sorry Hillary, but thanks to Donald Trump America never had to live through your hellish vision for what you wanted to do to us.

TD Bank must pay $3 billion in fines after pleading guilty to charges in a criminal money laundering case. “TD Bank has pleaded guilty and been hit with a record $3 billion fine for enabling drug cartel money laundering. Bank employees accepted bribes and overlooked blatant criminal activity by customers from Colombia and other regions,” Rawsalerts wrote. #BREAKING: TD Bank has pleaded guilty and been hit with a record $3 billion fine for enabling drug cartel money laundering.

TD also intends to pay $1.8 billion to the US Justice Department and plead guilty to resolve the US government’s investigation that the bank violated of the Bank Secrecy Act and allowed money laundering. The US Department of Justice said in a statement that TD Bank had “long-term, pervasive, and systemic deficiencies” in its procedures of monitoring transactions. The Wall Street Journal first reported the news late Wednesday. “By making its services convenient for criminals, it became one,” said Attorney General Merrick Garland, at a press conference Thursday. “Today, TD Bank became the largest bank in U.S. history to plead guilty to Bank Secrecy Act Program failures and the first bank in history to plead guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering,” Garland said.

The total assets of TD Bank’s two U.S. banking subsidiaries will be barred from exceeding $434 billion under that restriction. The restrictions are similar to those imposed by the Federal Reserve on Wells Fargo in 2018 over what the Federal Reserve called “widespread consumer abuses” at that bank.

The District of Columbia has refused to provide answers to Congress on the deaths of five premie-sized babies recovered from a Washington, D.C., abortion clinic, Republican Texas Rep. Chip Roy said in a Thursday letter — including whether or not they’ve preserved the baby bodies as evidence. In a letter first obtained by The Daily Wire, Roy accuses Attorney General Merrick Garland, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, and Metropolitan Police Department Chief Pamela Smith of a “lackluster investigation into the five aborted children, also know as the DC Five, whose remains were discovered at the Washington Surgi-Clinic in March 2022 by pro-life advocates.” The babies were reportedly aborted by D.C. abortionist Cesare Santangelo, and their bodies have been in the medical examiner’s possession for over two years. Pro-life groups believe that the babies were aborted in violation of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act or the Born-Alive Infant Protection Act. Thus far, authorities have shown no interest in investigating the babies’ deaths, and since there are no laws restricting abortions in the nation’s capitol, D.C. authorities have previously said that the babies were aborted in accordance with D.C. law. “As the Subcommittee continues to conduct its investigation into the District of Columbia’s and the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) enforcement of the Partial-Birth Abortion Act and the Born Alive Infants Protection Act,” Roy wrote in the letter, “serious concerns remain surrounding the deaths of these children.” In February, Roy requested that the mayor and MPD confirm that the remains would not be disposed of. Neither the mayor nor MPD have informed Roy on whether they have preserved the baby bodies as evidence, he said. This is the abortionist currently under fire for the mangled baby bodies recovered right here in DC. Live Action recorded him saying years ago that he would let babies die if they were accidentally delivered during abortions. pic.twitter.com/Lqb9cOYdwE — Mary Margaret Olohan (@MaryMargOlohan) April 5, 2022 “Future congressional investigations into potential violations and the sufficiency of existing law will undoubtedly be hampered if these remains and any related evidence are destroyed,” Roy wrote. “These children deserve justice, regardless of which administration is in power.” Roy, who is Chairman of the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government of the Committee on the Judiciary, renewed the subcommittee’s previous requests to preserve the baby bodies as evidence as “part of our oversight of potential violations of federal law and the DOJ’s directives to the D.C. Medical Examiner’s office.” The Texas congressman called upon Garland, Bowser, and Smith to provide confirmation by October 24 that they would not destroy any evidence related to the five babies. In February, after lawmakers and pro-life groups called on D.C. officials to stop the disposal of the baby remains, the D.C. Medical Examiner told the American Center for Law & Justice that it would not be disposing of the baby bodies on February 9, as pro-life activists and conservative lawmakers had feared. Their fears were based on a Daily Signal report in which Thomas More Society attorney Martin Cannon said that the medical examiner had informed him that the DOJ had given him the green light to dispose of the babies. Cannon represents Lauren Handy, who is currently in jail for violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act when she sought to stop women from aborting their unborn babies. Handy has said that the babies represented important evidence in defending her from the Justice Department’s charges. As The Daily Wire’s Leif Le Mahieu reported, Handy was sentenced to 57 months in prison and three years of supervised release in May 2024 after she was convicted on the FACE charges as well as conspiracy against rights related to her sit-in at the D.C.-based Washington Surgi-Clinic late-term abortion facility. “There was only one thing around which Ms. Handy and her co-defendants were unified, and that was nonviolence,” Cannon said when Handy was sentenced.  “They conspired to be peaceful. Yet, today, the Court granted the Biden Department of Justice its wish by sentencing Ms. Handy to 57 months — nearly 5 years in prison. For her efforts to peacefully protect the lives of innocent pre-born human beings, Ms. Handy deserves thanks, not a gut-wrenching prison sentence.” Garland, Bowser, and MPD did not immediately respond to requests for comment for this story.

Several U.S. Senators called this week for CBS News to release the full “60 Minutes” interview with Vice President Kamala Harris after the show was widely accused of deceptively editing her responses to questions. Controversy erupted after “60 Minutes” published remarks from Harris in a promotional video of her interview with the show that did not match what she stated when the interview aired. Senate Minority Whip John Thune (R-ND) told The Daily Wire: “If the Harris campaign stands by all of the vice president’s comments, then I’m not sure why they wouldn’t support releasing the full interview.” “In fact, their refusal to join these calls only raises more questions,” he added. Senate Republican Conference Chairman John Barrasso (R-WY) also called on “60 Minutes” to release the full interview. “CBS has proven its bias,” Barrasso told The Daily Wire. “A news organization should never selectively edit a candidate’s words. The American people deserve full transparency and the full transcript.” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said on his “Verdict” podcast this week that the deceptive edit raises the question of what else they left out of the interview. “They tried to help her out, and they actually got caught, which I got to say, I think has done real damage to their credibility going forward,” Cruz said. Kamala Harris’s answer on Israel was so bad that 60 Minutes had to edit her response. If she can’t even talk to a friendly reporter without needing a re-do, how can she represent America on the world stage? Listen to this SHOCKING audio on Verdict ?https://t.co/vz9hfKAojk pic.twitter.com/fnYA4RoOZ6 — Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) October 10, 2024 “Release the full unedited interview,” said Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO) in a post on X. “Totally agree that Vice President Kamala Harris’ 60 Minutes interview transcript should be released in its entirety,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC). “The transcript will speak for itself and there is no reason not to clear the air.” “The idea that @KamalaHarris’ comments may have been edited in a favorable way needs to be dealt with quickly,” he added. Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here! Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) noted that “60 Minutes” actually “changed Kamala’s answer” to “make her appear more coherent than reality.” “This is deeply dishonest disinformation,” he continued. “That Kamala can’t answer basic questions shows she is dangerously unprepared to serve as president.” The incident happened when host Bill Whitaker was discussing with Harris the United States’ financial support for Israel in its war against genocidal Islamic terrorists in the region. “But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening,” Whitaker said to Harris. In the promotional clip that was posted by CBS News on Sunday, Harris responded to that statement from Whitaker by saying: “The work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region.” However, when the full interview was published by the network on Monday night, that statement from Harris was nowhere to be found. Those words were not included anywhere in the television broadcast, nor did they appear in the interview when it was posted on YouTube, the interview’s transcript, or the show’s “Overtime” segment. Instead, on television and in the interview posted online, Whitaker’s identical statement that “it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening” is followed by Harris saying: “We are not gonna stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end.” A giant Fake News Scam by CBS & 60 Minutes. Her REAL ANSWER WAS CRAZY, OR DUMB, so they actually REPLACED it with another answer in order to save her or, at least, make her look better. A FAKE NEWS SCAM, which is totally illegal.
