‘Broken promises’: Brad Pitt’s New Orleans charity accused of selling homes that fell apart nbcnews.com/news/us-news/b… beware of shady charities! #Florence
This isn't the only case of a celebrity charity being a dismal failure or being questioned about its efforts. Wyclef Jean's charity was accused of mishandling $16 million in donations for Haiti. businessinsider.com/wyclefs-haiti-…
Some of the problem is these celebrities are well intentioned, but have no idea what they are doing and hire people that know even less. There are also others that have done exceptionally well in charitable causes like JJ Watt in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey.

#DearProfessorFord if your own two witnesses dispute your case denying they ever saw any type of behavior by Kavanaugh how is any objective person going to take your case seriously? If you can't remember when, where, or other details that hurts your case as well.
If you can't remember any of those details or others and your own witnesses don't corroborate your story is it possible you are mistaken in who assaulted you, when they assaulted you or even where?
If the FBI did look into the case as Democrats demand they'd be speaking to you, Kavanaugh, and your named witnesses. Of the 4 parties involved, three claim Kavanaugh's innocence. So, how exactly is that going to help your case? It doesn't because your case falls apart.

Democrats are trying to stall the Kavanaugh confirmation because they believe they can win enough seats in the midterms to stop any Trump nominations to SCOTUS. People better get out and vote those Democrats out in November if you want to see a fair/impartial SCOTUS.
The last Democratic president nominated and the Senate confirmed, two liberal activist judges to SCOTUS, those being Sotomayor and Kagan. There were tens of thousands of documents related to their history that were not even requested during confirmation hearings.
Gorsuch, is a purist when it comes to the Constitution, he doesn't judge like an activist trying to legislate from the bench, he interprets the law and how it applies Constitutionally. He doesn't try to bend the Constitution to the case for a preferred outcome.

Democrats: Trump should not declassify Russia investigation information, it could jeopardize sources and methods!
Translation: We don't want the American people to see how many times Steele was used as a source & how the FBI/DOJ used the media as a source.
Democrats didn't seem so concerned about sources and methods when they wanted stuff declassified that could fit their narrative. They even wrote the president requesting it be done on behalf of the American people.
Most of the sources involved in what Trump is being asked to declassify are already publicly known such as Australian Ambassador Downer, Christopher Steele, and others. Them being unredacted wouldn't be earth shattering in jeopardizing sources/methods since everybody knows them.

This woman doesn't comprehend reality. Other races do not orbit around 'whiteness'. In Asia the structure is around the Asian race, in Africa the African race, in Latin America, it is around Hispanics. In Europe around white and some mixed in southern and eastern Europe.
If other races revolved around 'whiteness' as Hathaway proclaims, then there would be white power structures in every country on every continent. However, there aren't, they structured by the most populace race of those countries.
Some countries, like South Africa, had white leaders up until the end of that power structure such as the end of Apartheid. South Africa is no longer governed that way. It also hasn't improved, never really has during its entire history of existence. An anomaly of failure.

Democrats shifting to familiar smear tactic dredging up an accusation that likely can't be proven. Dianne Feinstein withholding Brett Kavanaugh document from fellow Judiciary Committee Democrats interc.pt/2xe19M3
This is an incident that reportedly happened when Kavanaugh and the woman in question were in high school together. Kavanaugh graduated around 1983. Recall how another Democrat, Tester, did this with ADM Ronny Jackson. Those accusations are still unproven today.
Democrats continue using these tactics in attempts to derail political candidates and nominees for various posts within the administration. Most of these accusations remain unproven and are often made by "he said, she said" processes that can't be proven.

The left has been making this end of Roe v. Wade argument ever since it was first ruled Constitutional by the SCOTUS. Every time a Republican nominee for SCOTUS comes up they claim it is the end of Roe v. Wade.
Clarence Thomas was nominated by George HW Bush in 1991 and the Democrats screamed it would be the end of Roe v. Wade. That was 27 years ago & abortion is still here and SCOTUS rejected Arkansas' restrictions on abortion in May 2018.
Justice Roberts and Justice Alito were both appointed by George Bush in 2005 and 2006 respectively. The left of course screamed that it would be the end of abortion in America, yet here we are 13 years later for Roberts & 12 for Alito & abortion is still here.
