The CMP’s shocking videos rocked the internet and network news in 2015.
On Friday, a jury ruled in favor of Planned Parenthood. The CMP has already vowed to appeal the decision.
“This lawsuit is payback for David Daleiden exposing Planned Parenthood’s dirty business of buying and selling fetal parts and organs,” lead Society Defense Attorney Peter Breen told the Christian Post.
“We intend to seek vindication for David on appeal. His investigation into criminal activity by America’s largest abortion provider utilized standard investigative journalism techniques, those applied regularly by news outlets across the country.”
BREAKING: Jury awards Planned Parenthood $870K in punitive damages plus hundreds of thousands more in compensatory damages. Lady Justice was not blind in this trial, Judge Orrik’s rulings against CMP et al created bias against us with jury, black eye for #1A, dangerous precedent.

“Jury awards Planned Parenthood $870K in punitive damages plus hundreds of thousands more in compensatory damages. Lady Justice was not blind in this trial, Judge Orrik’s rulings against CMP et al created bias against us with jury, black eye for #1A, dangerous precedent,” CMP tweeted in response to the ruling.
The Christian Post reports that “during the preliminary hearing in September, Planned Parenthood staffers admitted to providing fetal tissue from abortions to brokers. The head of StemExpress, a biotech firm that procures fetal body parts for research, also allegedly admitted in court to procuring intact fetal heads and beating hearts.”
Planned Parenthood celebrated the ruling on Twitter, claiming that “today’s ruling makes clear what many already knew: the only people who engaged in wrongdoing are the ones behind this dangerous fraud, and we’re glad that they’re being held accountable.”

We know that Obama State Department Victoria Nuland was involved in numerous activities in the Obama White House while working for John Kerry. Nuland first was noted when she was caught lying to reporters about Obama’s Benghazi talking points. Nuland then came to light in 2014 when she was caught on tape saying “F**k the EU”.
We also know that Obama’s State and Justice Departments assisted billionaire and Democrat donor George Soros in an attempt to control Ukraine’s oil and gas industry.
In late 2015 Nuland was connected to a coup that the Deep State was involved in. Obama officials including Nuland and the Ukrainian Ambassador discussed toppling the Ukrainian Government and replacing officials, with then VP Joe Biden’s approval.
The world renowned Oliver Stone had a piece about this in a documentary about the Ukraine –

This was also about the same time that VP Joe Biden coerced the Ukrainian government to remove prosecutor Shokin from the case where he was investigating Biden’s son at Burisma in 2016.
Eric Ciaramella and Victoria Nuland
Aaron Klein at Breitbart.com reported:
Eric Ciaramella, whom Real Clear Investigations suggests is the likely so-called whistleblower, received emails about Ukraine policy from a top director at George Soros’s Open Society Foundations.
The emails informed Ciaramella and a handful of other Obama administration foreign policy officials about Soros’s whereabouts, the contents of Soros’s private meetings about Ukraine and a future meeting the billionaire activist was holding with the prime minister of Ukraine.
A primary recipient of the Open Society emails along with Ciaramella was then-Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs Victoria Nuland, who played a central role in the anti-Trump dossier affair. Nuland, with whom Ciaramella worked closely, received updates on Ukraine issues from dossier author Christopher Steele in addition to her direct role in facilitating the dossier within the Obama administration.
The emails spotlight Soros’s access to national security officials under the Obama administration on the matter of Ukraine.
In one instance, Jeff Goldstein, senior policy analyst for Eurasia at the Open Society Foundations, sent a June 9, 2016 email to Nuland and Ciaramella, who were the missive’s primary recipients.
CC’d were three other State Department officials involved in European affairs, including Alexander Kasanof who worked at the U.S. embassy in Kiev.
The message read:
I wanted to let you know that Mr. Soros met with Johannes Hahn in Brussels earlier today. One of the issues he raised was concern over the decision to delay the visa liberalization for Georgia and the implications for Ukraine.
The email revealed that “GS” – meaning Soros – “is also meeting [Georgian] President [Giorgi] Margvelashvili today and speaking with PM Groyman,” referring to Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman.

I am en route home from the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s Restoration Weekend in Palm Beach, Florida. This was my first Restoration Weekend, but it won’t be my last. It was an intense three days; I can’t begin to do it justice in a post but will try to touch on a few highlights that may be of interest to our readers.
* David Horowitz, at age 80, remains a national treasure. This morning there was a touching memorial tribute to Peter Collier, David’s long-time friend and collaborator. It is good to see that David is still going strong.
* Victor Davis Hanson spoke at the opening dinner Thursday night. He put aside his prepared remarks to talk about the impeachment fiasco now taking place in Washington. We had a chance to chat briefly after the event.
* Donald Trump, Jr. spoke at Friday’s breakfast. He was excellent–in my view, a top-notch surrogate who pulls no punches. Those who attended Restoration Weekend got a copy of his new book, Triggered. I am only a few chapters into it, but it is surprisingly good–one of the most fiery books I have ever read. It tells the story of the last three years from an insider’s perspective, and Donald Jr. is brutal in his evaluations of figures like Robert Mueller. Scott sometimes talks about needing help with his anger management therapy. Trust me: Triggered is therapeutic.
* I was on the first panel of the weekend, on the role of the press in the 2020 election, along with Ned Ryun, Joe Concha and Chris Buskirk. I expressed views that are probably already familiar to Power Line readers. A fundamental question, I think, is whether the legacy media can still sway many votes, now that most people understand that they are an arm of the Democratic Party. Which has been true for a long time, but has become blindingly obvious due to the hate that Donald Trump has engendered.
* Friday evening’s dinner featured an extensive lineup that included impressionist Rich Little. He began his act by saying, “Yes, I am still alive!” Not only is he alive, he is performing four nights a week in Las Vegas. Little is still funny, and what’s more, he is a solid conservative.
* Candace Owens was the main Friday evening speaker. She arrived in Palm Beach shortly before the dinner, coming from England where she had debated the impeachment of President Trump at the Oxford Union. I am pretty sure she won, although the Oxford students voted narrowly in favor of impeachment. Candace was even better than usual at our event, and characteristically remained for an hour after the event was over, chatting with attendees and posing for pictures.
* Pretty much every session, of which there were many, was excellent. I can’t summarize them all, so will highlight just a few, starting with a panel on K-12 indoctrination in the public schools that included two Minnesotans, Amy “Valentine” and Lynn McHale. It was terrific, and I was struck by the audience response. The depth to which our public schools have sunk surprises even a lot of well-informed conservatives.
* For me, the most eye-opening presentation was Caroline Glick’s. In recent years, I have been puzzled by Israeli politics, with its endless accusations of “corruption” and seeming inability to maintain a functioning government. Caroline explained it all: Israel is in the hands of its own Deep State. Unelected bureaucrats, led by a rogue Supreme Court that is not restricted to deciding actual cases, as in the U.S., but can issue orders more or less willy-nilly and somehow has gotten the power to name its own successors, dominate over the country’s elected officials. What is happening in Israel, which seemingly can be countered only by mass political action, should be a warning to Americans as well as Europeans. After her speech, we chatted briefly and she told me that she enjoys Power Line–high praise, in my book.
* James O’Keefe put on a bravura video presentation about Project Veritas. O’Keefe is a natural showman, and PV’s achievements over the last ten years are impressive. He brought out the CNN whistleblower to a thunderous round of applause from the audience.
* We have gotten to know some young black conservatives due to our participation in Turning Point’s Black Leadership Summits in Washington. This year, my organization collaborated with Turning Point USA and the Horowitz Freedom Center to bring some of these young conservatives to Restoration Weekend, all expenses paid. They are fine young people and visibly enjoyed the experience. Here we are with a couple of them:
* Restoration Weekend is held at The Breakers, one of America’s truly great resorts. We played hooky a couple of times to sit by a pool or walk on the beach. One couldn’t find a better venue for a conference, or a vacation.
* After dinner on Friday, my wife and I went into the wonderful Seafood Bar for a drink. After a few minutes a young man who was sitting by himself at the next table got up and approached us. “Are you John Hinderaker?” he asked. I confessed, and he, describing himself as a daily Power Line reader, joined us. A little later his wife arrived, having worked late. They ate dinner while Loree and I commandeered some of their oysters. They are a delightful couple, and we talked with them until 1:00 a.m. They spent the weekend at The Breakers celebrating the wife’s birthday; I hope she has forgiven us!
* Saturday evening’s dinner featured, among others, Diamond and Silk. I had never seen them perform, except in the briefest video snippets. They are hilarious, and their political comedy is smart and up to the minute. I sometimes say that unless you have hung out with black conservatives, you haven’t hung out with conservatives. Diamond and Silk illustrate the point, as does former football star Burgess Owens, another of Saturday’s speakers.
Diamond and Silk
* There was much more, uniformly worthwhile and inspiring. Kudos to David Horowitz, Michael Finch, Lonny Leitner and those behind the scenes at the Horowitz Freedom Center. This was my first time at Restoration Weekend, but next year, I wouldn’t miss it. If you can make it next year, I highly recommend it.
When Jeremy Corbyn, an afterthought to the British elite for decades, claimed his shock victory in the Labour leadership contest in 2015, he unapologetically grabbed hold of his new mantle, jamming out to his party’s all-but-officially discarded anthem, “The Red Flag.”
In subsequent episodes that autumn four years ago, Corbyn was joined onstage by another throwback, musician Billy Bragg: “Then raise the scarlet standard high, beneath its folds we’ll live and die, though cowards flinch and traitors sneer, we’ll keep the red flag flying here.”
Much of the British glitterati sneered. The prospect of Corbyn, and his right-hand man, the Marxist shadow chancellor of the exchequer John McDonnell, at Labour’s commanding heights was surely unworkable. Hence, there were multiple internal coup attempts aimed at the duo. As Corbyn helms his party as it heads into an election next month, establishment grandees insist he has no chance, as if Never Trumpism has crossed the Atlantic and transmuted into Never Jeremyism.
When Donald Trump ally Nigel Farage announced Monday that he would not contest Conservative-held parliamentary seats, a boon to the ruling Tories, Corbyn again made his distaste for the American president apparent. The lefty leader tweeted: “One week ago Donald Trump told Nigel Farage to make a pact with Boris Johnson. Today, Trump got his wish. This Trump alliance is Thatcherism on steroids and could send £500 million a week from our [National Health Service] to big drugs companies. It must be stopped.”
Official grievances aside, lazy observers of late-capitalist Western politics might miss the similarities between the two septuagenarians. Corbyn is a genuine leftist, to be sure, and President Trump has emerged as a right-wing nationalist of some sort, but concrete characterizations alone mistake the pair’s full appeal. Bernie-Trump and Obama-Trump voters were as real in 2016, as the more comfortable, often suburban “Romney-Clinton voters.” Ditto Labourites for Brexit.
Both outsiders, Corbyn and Trump, benefit from a general, even apolitical, ennui. Governments that are consistently in the red with their populaces on the question of whether the country is headed in the right direction risk the dark. The “age of nationalism,” with Trump in Washington, Johnson in London, Orban in Hungary, Putin in Moscow and Modi in New Delhi, has thus far failed to quell an ascendant, global dissatisfaction, even as the most macabre projections of the future, from climate doomsday to AI apocalypse to a second Great Depression, have thus far been averted.
What’s the matter? The population at large is only so specific. Witness, a New York bar-dweller telling Vice’s Michael Moynihan that he will be voting in 2020 for Trump—or establishmentarian Democrat Pete Buttigieg. Take note of a white, high school educated woman telling McClatchy’s Dave Catanese she only voted for Trump because she he couldn’t win: “I’m ashamed to admit ..I just couldn’t vote for Hillary. But I also thought there’s no way Trump was going to win. This way, I could at least say, ‘Well I didn’t vote for her,’… ‘I didn’t think I was doing any harm.’”
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson strikes me as vulnerable to similar political headwinds heading into a snap election called for next month. Johnson has called the contest to finally, at last, deliver Brexit, the populist, anti-European Union measure voted in nearly four years ago. His clique is confident: Corbyn is a neophyte, feared by the markets, and sure to lose. Sound familiar?
Others quietly aren’t so sure. A major possibility is that Corbyn doesn’t win, but bloodies Boris badly enough that he fails to win a majority, throwing the British system into further chaos. “Think a good chance” of an upset, Freddy Gray of the Spectator told me. “Hung parliament quite likely I would say. A lot of people who have never voted Tory will have to vote Tory. And just not sure that happens.”
“Yes, quite a high chance,” Janan Ganesh of the Financial Times told me. “For a laugh, look up the personality ratings of Boris and Corbyn. They might literally be the most two most despised people in the Kingdom. What an extraordinary electoral choice.”
If 2016 is any guide, wonky things tend to happen when voters are left loose to choose between two questionable options. Many election prediction mechanisms put Corbyn’s chance of outright victory around 10 percent, and the chance of a chaotic upset generally below 50. Those odds are better than the 2 percent Huffington Post gave Donald Trump on the eve of the 2016 election.
There are exceptions—the failed 2014 Scottish independence referendum, the corporate Republican sweep in the U.S. in 2014 and then-Prime Minister David Cameron’s surprisingly comfy margin of victory in the general election in 2015. Those results reassured establimentarians. The end of history was continuing, however beleagueredly, apace. Next up, assuredly, was: trade authority for the Trans Pacific partnership, the rejection of the Brexit referendum, and U.S. President Jeb Bush.
We know how it played out. But it’s worth considering events now in a broader context. Government measures since the recession of 2008-09 and the collapse of the Anglo world’s prestige in the Middle East last decade, such as the American bank bailouts, European austerity, the “surge” in Mesopotamia, the “stimulus” program and the Affordable Care Act, have been, time and again, judged by the voters to be palliative, band-aids for bullet holes. As a well placed source said he once told Mitt Romney, the doomed 2012 Republican standard-bearer, the candidate who wins elections these days is most cynical.
This is the risk for Johnson who believes, probably sincerely, that his country’s voters are fatigued of “supermasticated subject of Brexit,” as he told his party conference in October, “when what people want, what leavers want, what [European Union] remainers want, what the whole world wants, is to be calmly and sensibly done with the subject.”
Would that it were so simple. There’s evidence enough that if the measure, leaving Europe, were held to a vote again, it would go down in flames. Generational replacement is the achilles’ heel of Brexitism, maybe Trumpism, as some voters from 2016 are simply not with us anymore.
If Trump and Johnson were to go down this December and the following November, this period in civilization will be remembered as one of chaos as the only rule—the gathering storm over the nitty-gritty. Free marketer Euroscepticism and right-wing nationalism, for now, didn’t so much gain traction as a general desire to shake things up.
On this score, Johnson, the posh, Etonian former president of the Oxford Union and scion of political insiders, has considerable vulnerabilities. Not least because some in his midst, including the Johnny-come-lately Farage, doubt he’s a true believer. Legendarily, Johnson in 2015 drafted two different columns for his weekly Telegraph bromide—one in favor of British exit, and one opposed, eventually going with the former, expecting, like the white, high school educated woman, for his vote to be on the losing side.
Trump, and to a lesser extent Johnson, may embrace publicly, but behind the scenes, it’s more complicated. A former senior Trump administration official told me Johnson, the erudite author of nearly a dozen books, hates being compared to the American anti-intellectual. “He is genuinely a bad person. Not an unlikable person but a bad person, as in he has no morals, no principles and beliefs,” a former close colleague told the New Yorker in September. “He would be whatever Prime Minister was necessary to maximize the chances of gaining and then maintaining power.”
In a time of tumult, the risk for Johnson, as it is for Trump, is the continued public thirst for a true believer.

On Sunday Rep. Lee Zeldin joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures.
Zeldin said yesterday’s testimony by Mark Sandy made for a very bad day for Adam Schiff and his impeachment team.
Rep. Lee Zeldin: There was a lot of coverage obviously for the open hearing of Ambassador Yovanovitch on Friday. But once that was done even though we thought we were in this new open public part of this impeachment inquiry we went back into this SCIF in the basement of the United States capitol on two more depositions. On Friday it was David Holmes who was an assistant for Ambassador Taylor and then Saturday, yesterday, we were there for several hours for Mark Sandy, who was a dedicated career staffer at the Office of Management and Budget who came in to answer a question on why there was a hold on aid to Ukraine. His answer was one that I don’t believe there should be another open hearing until that transcript is released because it’s going to change some of the answers that was given by say Lt. Col. Vindman on Tuesday morning.
So, let’s release all of the remaining transcripts including Mark Sandy and David Holmes because Mark Sandy’s answer that he gave yesterday to that question made for a very bad day for those who are pushing for this impeachment charade.
.@RepLeeZeldin said all public hearings need to be suspended until the release of Mark Sandy's private testimony, which Zeldin says includes an answer that could fundamentally impact other testimonies.

If Democrats were hoping last week's]]
Citing false arrest, malicious prosecution, and a bevy of Constitutional rights violations, Mark Dickerson has filed a federal lawsuit against the city of Portland and Multnomah County. The covfefe giving rise to the lawsuit stems from an incident involving a small gathering of Black Lives Matter protesters who were blocking the road, and Dickerson trying to make his way through the group. The crowd gets out of the way, except for one guy, who intentionally jumps in front of Dickerson’s truck, multiple times, while other protesters pelt his truck with debris and signs.
Dickerson was the one arrested by Portland “police” officers, who were monitoring the protest from afar, apparently ceding the streets in front of the courthouse, city, and police headquarters to the protesters. Dickerson was charged with Assault in the Fourth Degree, Reckless Endangering, and Reckless Driving.
Representing himself pro se, Dickerson has filed the lawsuit in Federal court. The complaint reads:
This is a civil rights and state tort law action against the above-named parties for the unconstitutional and tortious act of falsely arresting the Plaintiff, the unlawful siezure and detention of Plaintiff, and in criminal charges being filed against him. A sitting state court judge dismissed all charges against him.
Before going on to list several individuals who were working in their official capacity, including police officers and deputy district attorneys. It then continues with:
7. On October 31, 2018, following the death of a Portland resident in a police shooting incident, a group of protestors aligned with the “Black Lives Matter” movement, engaged in a protest over the incident, on Fourth Avenue Southwest in downtown Portland, directly in front of the Multnomah County courthouse.
8. The focus of the protestors, who were being actively monitored by police officers employed by the Portland Police Bureau (“PPD”), was the disruption of motor vehicle traffic traveling northward on Fourth Avenue, between Main and Salmon Streets. This was primarily done by having the protestors enter into the area of the crosswalk during the periods of time when the traffic light blocked the forward movement of traffic across the Main Street intersection, and then slowly moving back to the sidewalk: as the light changed, and traffic began to move forward.
9. At the approximate hour of 10:30 a.m., Plaintiff, who had a scheduled court hearing at the Multnomah County courthouse, was proceeding Northward on Fourth Avenue, approaching the courthouse block,when his progress was halted by the traffic light at the Main street intersection. Ashe waited at the light, he observed the protesters moving forward into the crosswalk: across the street, carrying their signs and placards. As the light changed, and traffic, including Plaintiff’s vehicle began to move across the intersection, the protesters slowly retreated back to the sidewalk area as the vehicular traffic approached.
10. As Plaintiff slowly moved across the intersection and crosswalk area, and the protesters moved back to the sidewalk, one protester – who had not been part of the group that had occupied the crosswalk – suddenly stepped into the traffic lane, and directly in front of Plaintiff’s vehicle.
11. Although Plaintiff – who at point was traveling at a speed of approximately seven miles per hour – immediately applied his brakes and came to a stop, the said protestor made a deliberate show of slamming his hands down on Plaintiff’s hood, and then spinning away, as though he had been struck, attempting to create the illusion that Plaintiff had deliberately run into him.
II. The False Arrest.
12. At this point, a supervisory PPD officer (“John Doe 1”) who had observed the interaction, stepped forward to apparently defuse and investigate the situation. Plaintiff immediately made the officer aware that the entire incident had been captured on his dashboard video camera – commonly referred to as a “dashcam” – and offered to replay the video recording for the officer.
13. The PPD officer declined the offer to view the dashcam recording, however he made a point of telling Plaintiff that he was not in trouble, and specifically, that he was “not under arrest”.
14. During this time, the protester continued to allege that he had been struck by Plaintiffs vehicle, despite being made aware of the existence of the dashcam video. At this point, a second, subordinate PPD officer (“John Doe 2”) joined the first, and they proceeded to discuss the incident between them, before John Doe 1 withdrew from the scene and left John Doe 2 as the investigatory officer. Again however, both Plaintiff and John Doe 2 were specifically told by John Doe1, that he was not in any trouble, and was not under arrest.
15. After John Doe 1 had left the scene, and following a period of discussion with the allegedly injured protester, John Doe 2 now informed Plaintiff that – contrary to the specific allegement and instruction by John Doe 1 and his earlier assurances to Plaintiff – that Plaintiffwas, in fact, being placed under arrest, and charged with four Class A misdemeanor counts for: 1) Reckless Driving, 2) Harassment, 3) Assault in the 4th Degree, and 4) Recklessly Endangering Another Person.
16. Despite Plaintiffs repeated offer and entreaties to John Doe 2, to simply view the dashcam video, the officer ignored the presence ofthe available exculpatory evidence available on the dashcam video, and placed Plaintiff into custody.
17. Following his arrest, Plaintiff was processed through the Multnomah County Correctional System, where he was subjected to fear, intimidation, humiliation, and public embarrassment, when his name and photograph were publicized by employees of the Multnomah County Correctional System.
ID. The Malicious Prosecution.
18. Thereafter, employees of the Multnomah County District Attorney’s office, despite the clear and unequivocal video evidence available to them, proceeded to wrongfully bring Plaintiff to trial.
19. The criminal charges against Plaintiff were subsequently dismissed; the 4th Degree Assault and Recklessly Endangering Another Person charges were dismissed prior to trial, and the remaining charges were summarily dismissed by the trial judge, immediately upon viewing of the dashcam video.
With his mugshot plastered everywhere, media couldn’t wait to hang him, with rags such as the Portland Mercury writing:
According to the Portland Police Bureau (PPB), 55-year-old Mark Dickerson ignored officers’ efforts to divert traffic for the protest, held at SW 4th and Main. Instead, he drove his Chevrolet truck into the crowd and hit one protestor, identified by fellow protestors at the scene as Portland activist Teressa Raiford.
In reality, there were no police actively trying to redirect traffic, the protester jumped in front of his truck multiple times, and Teressa Raiford was not the one.
The Oregonian piled on as well:
During the protest, Arthuray Dudley, a man who identified himself as Kimmons’ older brother, was hit twice by a car but appears to not have sustained serious injuries.
Police pulled over a truck, cuffed the driver and put him in a police vehicle, though it wasn’t immediately clear if it was related to the protester being hit.
Mark A. Dickerson, a 55-year-old Portland man, was later identified as the driver of the Chevrolet 2500 pickup involved in the incident. Police said Dickerson was booked in the county jail on suspicion of fourth- degree assault, reckless endangering and reckless driving.
Radical bike cult site BikePortland.org lead with the headline of “A man was arrested today for purposely driving his car into protestors downtown” and immediately shifted the blame to “older white men” in general:
The protest took place on SW 4th Avenue and, according to the Portland Police Bureau, responding officers urged people to get onto the sidewalk. As they addressed the scene, a 55-year-old man purposely drove into them. Here’s the police statement:
The driver, Mark Dickerson, was put in jail and faces charges of Assault in the Fourth Degree, Reckless Endangering, and Reckless Driving.
I’m not close to the Patrick Kimmons case; but I approach this from a transportation/safe streets journalism and advocacy perspective. What happened today should not be seen as separate from the growing rhetoric around protestors and their use of the streets.
This stuff is dangerous. In today’s emotional political climate where protests are common, older white men feel victimized by a rapidly changing society, and hate toward others feels like it’s at an all-time high, we can’t allow our streets to become even more dangerous because people think it’s justifiable to mow protestors down with their cars.
All of this inflammatory rhetoric has resulted in a second lawsuit filed by Dickerson, this time taking aim at the media and their false accounts of the incident and ensuing slander. The Oregonian reports:
A driver who saw criminal charges against him dismissed when a key prosecution witness didn’t make himself available for trial filed a $750,000 defamation lawsuit last week against 11 Portland area media organizations.
Mark Alan Dickerson had been charged with reckless driving and harassment after prosecutors accused him of intentionally and slowly driving his pickup truck in October 2018 into a downtown Portland demonstrator, who was in the street protesting the police shooting death of Patrick Kimmons.
Dickerson, who is representing himself in the lawsuit, claims that the media outlets defamed him and intentionally inflicted emotional distress upon him by publishing stories about his arrest — “virtually all with false, misleading, and/or sensationalist headlines.”
Dickerson specifically refers to four headlines: “A man was arrested today for purposely driving his car into protesters downtown” on BikePortland.org, “Driver Hits Person Protesting Police Shooting in Downtown Portland Today” by Willamette Week, “Man Charged With Hitting Protesters With His Truck” by Portland Mercury, “Driver arrested for hitting protester in downtown Portland” by KPTV, according to his lawsuit.
Dickerson lists as defendants: The Oregonian/OregonLive.com, BikePortland.Org, Willamette Week, Portland Mercury, KPTV, KOIN, KATU, KGW, Portland Observer, Portland Tribune and The Columbian.
“Our coverage accurately reflected what law enforcement and prosecutors released about the case,” said Therese Bottomly, editor of The Oregonian/OregonLive.
Deputy District Attorney Jenna Plank wrote in a court memo that Dickerson could have avoided the entire encounter if he would have used one of the other two unobstructed lanes to go drive around protesters, like other cars had.
Dickerson’s defense attorney, William Aring Meyer, contended the protesters were the ones violating the law by, among other things, impeding traffic. Other protesters cleared out of his way, but Dudley looked directly at Dickerson and backed his body directly into Dickerson’s car, Meyer said.
The prosecution saw that differently, writing in the memo that “Mr. Dickerson intentionally drove his vehicle at low speed directly into Mr. Dudley.”
Immediately after the incident, the protesters apparently didn’t get the message and continued to stand directly in front of cars.
It didn’t appear the protester was hurt. A small police presence is on hand; I think the driver kept going. Testy interaction with another driver here. Video: pic.twitter.com/KtqXLKKvMu

Dickerson tells The Gateway Pundit that he’s representing himself “Because most of the experience I’ve had over the years, have proven that most lawyers are out for themselves, not for their client. Although they will claim otherwise, the proof is in the pudding so to say. The law was written for everyone, not just lawyers and if people would endeavor to educate themselves on the law, they will find it’s not as difficult as it might seem. Lawyers are very good at procedural steps because that’s the priority of their work which does give them an advantage.“
So, to summarize, police, prosecutors, protesters, and press are trying to get away with wrecking a man’s life, based off of police allowing mobs of protesters to take over the streets and threaten drivers, while targeting anyone who dares to not take their crap, then publishing false and cherry picked accounts of what did and didn’t happen while leaving out key details.
A GoFundMe account was set up for Dickerson.

The liberal mainstream media is reporting that whistleblower Eric Ciaramella was working with Schiff witness Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman in plotting this latest attempted coup of President Trump.
According to the Washington Post Eric Ciaramella worked late in his cubicle at the CIA headquarters for two weeks before submitting his complaint against President Trump.
During that same time period Ciaramella, who was not on the Trump-Zelensky call, was meeting with Adam Schiff’s office in planning the attack on the US president.
And now what was once rumored appears to be true — that Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman was speaking with Ciaramella and may be his source for this latest attack on President Trump.
This information was leaked by the CIA plotters to their comrades at the Washington Post.
The Washington Examiner reported:
The whistleblower whose complaint about President Trump’s communications with Ukraine launched House impeachment proceedings was still attending White House meetings recently and may have spoken to Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman prior to filing the complaint, according to the Washington Post.
On Saturday, the outlet published details about the steps a CIA analyst took to blow the whistle after the president urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during a July 25 phone call to start an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden, who is also leading the pack of 2020 Democrats. Notably, the Post was clear that the whistleblower is male.
“The analyst had served on the National Security Council during the Trump administration and had been in the presence of the president. After returning to the CIA, his job required him to continue to participate in National Security Council meetings,” the publication reported, indicating that the whistleblower was still attending meetings at the White House recently.
The Post claimed the whistleblower never told any of his White House contacts about his plans to file a complaint, which he worked on “after hours” in his cubicle at the CIA headquarters for two weeks before submitting it on Aug. 12.
Before filing the complaint, the anonymous person spoke with a White House official who also expressed concern over Trump’s conversation with Zelensky. The “shaken” official said the call was “frightening,” “crazy,” and “completely lacking in substance related to national security.”
While unconfirmed, it is possible that the official was Vindman, who still works with the whistleblower on U.S.-Ukraine policy.

Democrat Rep. Jeff Van Drew (NJ) appeared on “Sunday Morning Futures” on Sunday and told host Maria Bartiromo that he would be voting “NO” on impeachment unless there is proof that Trump committed a high crime.
Congressman Van Drew voted against the impeachment resolution that denies President Trump due process and gives Adam Schiff sweeping powers to control witnesses and evidence.
Van Drew said that impeachment is a very serious thing and Schiff is disenfranchising millions upon millions of Americans who voted for Trump.
“Our Founding Fathers had vigorous debates of whether they would even allow impeachment in the Constitution — you don’t disenfranchise voters — millions upon millions of voters,” Van Drew said. “Voters choose their leaders in America.”
Maria Bartiromo then asked Rep. Van Drew if he is hearing concern from red-state Democrats about Schiff’s Soviet-style impeachment process.
“There is some discussion among some of them (Democrats) quietly, privately of concern certainly,” Van Drew said. “What I’m hearing out on the street from most people is they’re kinda tired, they’re kinda worn out, they’re kinda bored and they really wanna move on.”

President Trump has already declassified and released transcripts from his April and July phone calls to Zelensky and there is zero quid pro quo.
The House Republicans have already provided four key pieces of evidence that there was no quid pro quo, no pressure on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate the Biden crime family.
Ukraine received military aid from the US three weeks early and Zelensky did not launch an investigation into the Bidens in exchange for the aid — NO QUID PRO QUO, NO BRIBERY.

I’m coming forward with this because I don’t have a Twitter account. Again, I’d like my account back. But in my current position I can point out problems with Twitter as a company without having to worry about backlash.
Even so, please don’t take anything I’m about to say the wrong way.
This is from Kelly Huffman. Sr. Manager Business Development & Growth Marketing, Self-Serve Ads. Twitter. “Great catching a chair with you yesterday. Keep up the good fight!”
Which fight is he talking about, Jack? The Sleeping Giants campaign against Breitbart, the one against Alex Jones, or the one against Fox News and Tucker Carlson? From the sound of that tweet, your company is well aware of what’s going on with the platform when it comes to this.
That being, the guy who deals with Twitter partnerships for ads, is fully aware and allows a group like the Sleeping Giants to manipulate the ads market.
You can see the long history of Sleeping Giants vs. Breitbart in the tweets. The Sleeping Giants have scared anywhere from 4100 to 4300 advertisers away from Breitbart. That’s the group’s tactic. They apply it to Breitbart or wherever they politically see fit.
Given Facebook’s inclusion of Breitbart into their news program, and the public backlash against the move, it’s relevant to assess how Twitter’s treatment of Breitbart fares.
Not great, Jack.
Twitter employees engaged in Sleeping Giants campaigns. When Global Agency Development Lead Travis Freeman was with Twitter, for example, he helped hassle Amazon. A (now former) Twitter Android Engineer also reached out to Amazon for that purpose. It was right at the end of Twitter Engineer Matt Massicotte’s time with your company that he did the exact same. While working for Twitter, Nora Carroll tried to hassle Google into blacklisting Breitbart outright, saying it’s “just one (hate) site.”
David Yun has been with Twitter for five years now. He’s there currently. Here he is helping Sleeping Giants attack Breitbart.
Rahul Sharodi has worked in Twitter’s research division for almost seven years now. As someone in tune with market insights and analytics, he should be well aware of the implications of propping up the Sleeping Giants…
…David Marwick is currently serving as Twitter’s “Sr. Software Engineer, Data Infrastructure.” Been at the company since May 2012. But last year he found the time to use his position at the company to oust Huel’s advertisements from Breitbart…
..In this particular case, the distinction isn’t a problem. This is because in the replies we have another Twitter employee joining in the fray to oust Alex Jones. Her name is Jessica P. According to Linkedin, she has been with Twitter since April 2015. Her specialty being brand partnerships. That, alongside a statement made a week later, clearly puts Jess in the “helping the Sleeping Giants” camp.

Guest post by author and professor Ted Malloch
The White House announced at the end of last week that Pam Bondi, 54, former Republican, Florida Attorney General, had been hired to coordinate and be the “public face” of the response to the House’s impeachment inquiry into President Trump.
For one of the greatest dramas in American political history, Bondi is straight out of “central casting,” said Adam Goodman, who engineered her run for Florida Attorney General back in 2010.
“She feels the moment. This was the moment she could be most impactful for the President and the country,” Goodman said.
“People are going to discover all over again what Pam Bondi’s made of.”
Just in time — Trump is bringing an excellent legal head and a very effective communicator to the scene—his rescue.
Trump is capable of doing many things at once and is his own best strategist and communicator, but he needs someone he trusts, a true loyalist, by his side to make the case, to constantly appear on television and online to ensure this impeachment scam is controlled and, in the end, WON.
Let’s face it, this will be fought in the media, not just in Congress.
Swaying public sentiment is all important, given the Democrats’ stupidity, the media complicity, and the fact that this is moving into the 2020 election year.
Pam Bondi was an effective murder prosecutor in Tampa, TV personality, and well-regarded Attorney General in Florida who stole the limelight. Throughout her career, she has been a strong proponent of law and order, something clearly missing in the Democrats’ argument in this impeachment circus.
Overall, Bondi was extremely effective, photogenic and convincing.
She cuts across all demographics and is particularly good with suburban women—who are critically important to Trump’s re-election bid.
As a Tri-Delt, and the first female Attorney General of Florida,
Bondi is adored by women as a person who stands her ground, is incredibly professional and persuasive, and comes across exceptionally well.
She also scores extraordinarily well across all demographics and ages, including seniors. She knows and relates to people in a natural, no-nonsense way.
Look, she won 55 percent of the vote in her own state-wide re-election bid.
As a former prosecutor, Bondi knows her way around the courtroom and how to make a case, too. She is an attorney you want on your side.
As a guest host on FOX TV, Bondi is media savvy and can look you directly in the eye and plead a strong argument, using the right words. She is most believable.
She knows how to be concise and to the point.
Former Treasury Department spokesman, Tony Sayegh will also join the West Wing and assist on communications, strategy, and other special projects. He is considered an experienced media guru and a close associate to Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner.
With this talented team Trump will finally have the support he needs.
As an energetic President who works round the clock, Trump can focus on running the country, serving as Commander and Chief, and make the pitch for his second term.
He will be aided enormously by having Bondi and Sayegh by his side to work this scam of a side show.
“Trump is the American commander-in-chief, a mantle he wears comfortably. But he has also, if reluctantly, taken on the role of the leader of the free world, if not the whole wide world. That is why we subtitled our new book TRUMP’S WORLD, Geo Deus. “
Trump is in many ways akin to Saint Michael slaying the dragon, executing a hostile takeover of the Republican Party and daily wrestling down the whole world, now unfortunately including the likes of Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi.
“Miraculous” barely covers what the man gets away with and achieves on a daily basis.
Pam Bondi will be his personal angel in this fight.
She is a God-sent.

Prince Andrew claimed that he was eating pizza on the night in 2001 when he is accused of raping then 17-year-old Virginia Roberts Giuffre. He also made bizarre claims that he doesn’t sweat because of an “adrenaline overdose.”
Jason Stein, 28, was brought on as Prince Andrew’s communications secretary to address the Epstein connections. However, he resigned two weeks before the interview because the royal would not take his advice not to do it. He only held the position for four weeks.
“This will go down as one of the single worst PR moves in recent history,” a source close to Buckingham Palace told the Times.
The BBC did not hold back in the interview, questioning him directly about raping Giuffre, the fact that he visited Epstein’s Manhattan home 18 months after the financier completed a prison sentence for soliciting a minor for prostitution, and the infamous photo of him and the victim.

On Sunday Wallace invited House Republican Whip Steve Scalise on to continue his attacks against President Trump.
At one point Chris Wallace accused NSC Senior Director for European Affairs Tim Morrison of testifying against President Trump in Schiff’s secret basement star chamber.
Wallace was lying. He must be getting his “facts” from Media Matters now.
1. Mr. Morrison did not believe anything improper occurred on the July 25 call. (p. 60)
2. Mr. Morrison testified that the memorandum of conversation (a phrase used to describe the call transcript) of the July 25 call was complete and accurate. (p. 60)
3. Mr. Morrison, who listened to the July 25 call, testified that he was not concerned about the substance of what was discussed on the call – only that the transcript might leak. (p. 46-47)
4. Mr. Morrison was told by National Security Council lawyer John Eisenberg that the July 25 call record mistakenly ended up on the highly classified system, debunking the Democrats’ allegations of an attempted “cover up.”
5. Mr. Morrison repeatedly testified that he purposefully kept Lt. Col. Vindman out of the loop on this matter because he had concerns about Vindman’s judgment, which were also raised to him by Fiona Hill and others.
6. Mr. Morrison testified that, as the final clearing authority for any edits made to the 7/25 call package, he accepted all of Lt. Col. Vindman’s proposed edits. (p. 61-62)
7. Mr. Morrison testified that he does not believe Burisma came up on the call or that anyone suggested edits to the mem-con to include the word Burisma. (p. 64)
8. Mr. Morrison testified that Lt. Col. Vindman relayed two concerns to him about the July 25 call: that the call did not get into the subject matter they had hoped, and the fidelity of the translation. (p. 72-73)
9. Mr. Morrison testified that Lt. Col. Vindman never reported to Morrison any of the “light queries” that he received from Ukrainian officials in August regarding the hold on aid. (p. 93)
10. Mr. Morrison confirmed that President Trump generally does not like foreign aid generally, and specifically held concerns that corruption in Ukraine may cause U.S. aid to be “misused.”
Obviously, Chris Wallace was lying.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) once again called on President Trump to prove to the impeachment committee that he is innocent.
To be clear, the House of Representatives has not voted on articles of impeachment and they still have not named the specific crime(s) President Trump committed.
President Trump is being denied due process and now the Democrats are turning the Constitution upside down and telling Trump he has to prove he is innocent.
Pelosi spoke to CBS host Margaret Brennan about the ongoing sham impeachment inquiry into President Trump.
The Speaker admitted that the House Dems haven’t even made a decision to impeach Trump, and in the same sentence called on the President to present evidence that he is innocent.
“I have no idea,” Pelosi said on whether “bribery” will be an article of impeachment. “There’s not even a decision made to impeach the president.”
That’s because the Democrats are still searching for a crime — Joseph Stalin would be proud.
Pelosi then invited Trump to testify and prove to the impeachment committee he is innocent.
“If the President has information that demonstrates his innocence in all of this, which we haven’t seen,” Pelosi said claiming the transcript of Trump’s phone call to Zelensky, which has already been publicly released, is “tucked away in a highly sensitive compartmentalized intelligence server, so we can’t see that.”
The burden is actually on the prosecution to prove that President Trump committed a crime.
As far as the exculpatory evidence Pelosi is demanding, READ THE TRANSCRIPT of Trump’s July 25 and April phone calls to Zelensky — both of which have been declassified and publicly released.

Robert Mueller treated President Trump the same way during his presser earlier this year when he acted like he was God and said he did not exonerate Trump because he couldn’t prove he didn’t commit any crimes.
As far as ‘exculpatory evidence,’ the Democrats have denied Trump due process and won’t allow his legal counsel to attend the impeachment show trials nor are they allowing evidence to be introduced into the hearings.
Furthermore, the House Republicans have already provided four key pieces of evidence that there was no quid pro quo, no pressure on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate the Biden crime family.
Ukraine received military aid from the US three weeks early and Zelensky did not launch an investigation into the Bidens in exchange for the aid — NO QUID PRO QUO, NO BRIBERY.
