Democrat presidential candidate Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke confirmed in an interview Friday that he is planning to physically tear down existing sections of the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border if he is elected president.

“So Beto I just want to be clear. Have you said you want to tear down the wall?” asked Latino USA’s Maria Hinojosa.

“If I’m elected, I will tear down that wall,” Beto replied. “Then suddenly the Democrat is quoting the Republican Ronald Reagan– tear down that wall.”

“Right. So the short answer is yes,” O’Rourke said. “I would include all local stakeholders.

A British fashion and makeup blogger with tan skin has been accused of being racist after internet commenters suggested her love of the sun and tanning is “modern blackface“, according to reports.

The blogger, Chloe Wilson, known on Instagram for showing off her skin in alluring bikini shots, admitted to having blocked comments from a number of users who took issue with her complexion.

“How many times do black people have to tell you to stop doing black face???” asked one such irked commenter, while another suggested her tan was “mockery and a form of racism,” adding “it’s modern black face.

Former president Barack Obama told a crowd in Canada that he has seen “fake” videos that feature a figure bearing his likeness, and he is worried that people are going to believe they are real because their brains aren’t developed enough.

Obama told the Ottawa audience Friday evening that he has personally seen these fake videos and the figure in the videos bears an uncanny likeness to himself.

“People can duplicate me speaking and saying anything. And it sounds like me and it looks like I’m saying it — and it’s a complete fabrication,” Obama said.

A new poll from CNN shows that the vast majority of Americans, including Democrats, want the Obama Justice Department’s 2016 actions be investigated.

With the Mueller report complete and the Russian collusion narrative collapsed, the public want answers.

“The American public increasingly feels that Democrats in Congress are going too far in investigating the President,” CNN reports. “44% say Democrats are doing too much on that score, up from 38% saying so in March. That shift stems largely from independents, 46% of whom now say congressional Democrats are going too far.”

And that was before Democrats wasted a whole day moaning and groaning about Attorney General William Barr’s memo about the Mueller report, which Robert Mueller told Barr was accurate.

Hollywood celebrity Rosanna Arquette has managed to turn the dial up on her feverish anti-Trump hyperbole, claiming the Trump administration is a “fascist dictatorship” that is “trying to kill us, that’s what it feels like.”

“It’s heartbreaking to watch what is taking place in what was once a very great country,” Arquette told The Independent in the UK, while promoting new film Rory’s Way. “To watch, slowly, a dictatorship come in – and it is a fascist government – and try to dismantle democracy...”

Arquette, who was born in New York City, and raised in a commune, also shared a bizarre theory about conservative media in the US, claiming that networks such as Fox “hypnotize” viewers and use “mind control” to force them to believe lies.

The less attention you pay to politics, the more likely you are to support Bernie Sanders and the socialist option for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, according to NBC polling data.

The NBC poll debuted Sunday on “Meet the Press” and it revealed a characteristic about Bernie Sanders voters that wasn’t exactly flattering.

Watch Chuck Todd deliver the bad news to his panel.

Daily Wire reports:

“The less you are paying attention, the more likely you are a Bernie Sanders supporter,” Todd says, pointing to a Monmouth poll taken recently showing that Sanders is losing definite ground to both former Vice President Joe Biden and a suddenly-much-stronger Sen.

Sponsors of immigrants who end up receiving welfare benefits must pay the cost these benefits themselves, rather than expect the American taxpayer to foot the bill.

So says a memo issued by President Donald Trump on Thursday that is set to radically alter the implementation of US immigration laws and hold sponsors of migrants responsible for any financial burden they go on to place on the country.

President Trump’s directive invokes rarely enforced 1996 legislation that holds sponsors legally liable for such costs, according to the Washington Examiner.

“The immigration laws currently require that, when an alien receives certain forms of means-tested public benefits, the government or non-government entity providing the public benefit must request reimbursement from the alien’s financial sponsor,” the memoread.

An illegal alien has been arrested on two felony counts of sexual conduct with a minor and one felony count of aggravated assault after an 11-year-old Phoenix girl he described as his “girlfriend” was found pregnant.

According to KSAZ, the immigrant in question, 20-year-old Carlos Cobo-Perez, allegedly wrote a note admitting to a relationship with the young girl and saying he didn’t care if he went to jail for breaking American laws.

Cobo-Perez admitted to police that he routinely had sex with the 11-year-old girl in his car outside her elementary school.

WesternJournal report: Cobo-Perez made his way onto police’s radar in November, after a concerned mother reported to authorities that he was involved with her young daughter.

An Obama-appointed judge blocked President Trump from building sections of his border wall with money secured under his declaration of a national emergency.

U.S. District Judge Haywood Gilliam Jr., who was appointed by Obama in 2014, immediately halted President Trump’s efforts to redirect military-designated funds for wall construction.

Judge Gilliam’s order applies to two projects that were scheduled to begin on Saturday and involved replacing 51 miles of fence in two areas on the US-Mexico border.

CNBC reports: Gilliam issued the ruling after hearing arguments last week in two cases. California and 19 other states brought one lawsuit; the Sierra Club and a coalition of communities along the border brought the other.

CNN laid off almost an entire division on Tuesday, in a move the struggling network “debunked” as nothing more than a “crazy rumor” just a few weeks ago.

While Dr. Sanjay Gupta is expected to keep his job, most of the rest of the health care coverage division, based out of Atlanta, were released, as the network continues to hemorrhage ratings against its rivals.

Fox News reported:

TVNewser, a media watchdog site started by CNN’s Brian Stelter, managed to get confirmation from the network — just in time for a Friday news dump.

“As part of the normal course of business, our newsgathering team made a small restructure earlier this week that ultimately impacts 6-7 employees within CNN’s Health Unit,” a CNN spokesperson told TVNewser’s A.J.

Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said that Christian and Muslim prayers “all go to the same place” during her speech at a Ramadan event held at the US Capitol on Monday.

Ocasio-Cortez delivered the bizarre theological postulation at a Congress-held iftar — the meal that breaks the fast at sundown each day of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

Congress’s three Muslim members hosted the iftar at the U.S. Capitol on Monday, which was attended by 100 guests from various religious backgrounds, The Washington Post reports.

During the Islamic event, Ocasio-Cortez, who has claimed to be Catholic and have Jewish heritage at various points in the past year, spoke about attending Friday prayers at mosques in her Bronx district, which includes a substantial Muslim population.

Two illegal alien teens, who are both MS-13 gang members from El Salvador, have been charged with first-degree murder after Maryland’s Prince George’s County Police found the body of a 14-year-old girl on May 13.

Investigators say the illegal aliens met the child at an apartment complex, took her into the woods and battered her with a baseball bat, and then tore her apart with a machete.

The two Salvadoran illegal aliens had previously been arrested by local police on attempted murder charges, before being released by the city under sanctuary policies, with the department refusing to turn them over after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lodged a detainer for them.

In an unearthed 2003 interview with New York Magazine, James Comey, who would go on to helm the FBI a decade later, admitted on the record that he was a Communist before he joined the Bureau.

McCarthy warned the United States about the long term Communist plan to infiltrate and destroy America from within, and it is now clear that they almost managed to pull off their audacious heist.

The bombshell news means that it is now confirmed the heads of Obama’s FBI and CIA, Comey and John Brennan, were both Communists during the Cold War, yet somehow climbed the ranks within the same US intelligence community that had spent decades fighting that very ideology.

Shoe retailers, including Nike and Adidas, have written a letter to the White House begging President Donald Trump not to raise tariffs on footwear imported from China.

President Trump’s tariffs are devastating news for Nike, the sportswear giant that produces the vast bulk of it’s products in Chinese sweatshops, before selling them at huge profits in the US market, and paying far-left celebrities including Colin Kaepernick to market them.

It comes after the White House last week released a fresh list of about $300 billion in Chinese goods that could get hit with 25% tariffs, if Trump decides to move forward with his threat.
