Do you recall? “What did she know and when did she know it?” WASHINGTON SECRETS Nearly half in top 5 U.S. cities don’t speak English at home, record 67 million by Paul Bedard Nearly half of the residents in the nation’s five biggest cities do not speak English at home, choosing instead their native language, according to the latest Census Bureau data that details the impact of a decade of soft immigration policies. Overall, a record 67 million do not speak English at home, said the bureau. That is nearly double in 27 years. In its just-released analysis of the Census data, the Center for Immigration Studies said, “As a share of the population, 21.8 percent of U.S. residents speak a foreign language at home — roughly double the 11 percent in 1980.” The Center added, “In America's five largest cities, 48 percent of residents now speak a language other than English at home. In New York City and Houston it is 49 percent; in Los Angeles it is 59 percent; in Chicago it is 36 percent; and in Phoenix it is 38 percent.” The findings come as more and more reports emerge about both Americans and foreigners getting into heated debates over speaking English. In one case in New York last May, a man threatened to call immigration police if employees and customers didn’t stop speaking English in a restaurant. Last week, in Florida, a Taco Bell patron was turned away because a worker said nobody spoke English and couldn’t take the order. Among the top findings from the Center for Immigration Studies report: In 2017, a record 66.6 million U.S. residents (native-born, legal immigrants, and illegal immigrants) ages five and older spoke a language other than English at home. The number has more than doubled since 1990, and almost tripled since 1980. As a share of the population, 21.8 percent of U.S. residents speak a foreign language at home — roughly double the 11 percent in 1980. In America's five largest cities, 48 percent of residents now speak a language other than English at home. In New York City and Houston it is 49 percent; in Los Angeles it is 59 percent; in Chicago it is 36 percent; and in Phoenix it is 38 percent. In 2017, there were 85 cities and Census Designated Places (CDP) in which a majority of residents spoke a foreign language at home. These include Hialeah, Fla. (95 percent); Laredo, Texas (92 percent); and East Los Angeles, Calif. (90 percent). Perhaps more surprisingly, it also includes places like Elizabeth, N.J. (76 percent); Skokie, IL. (56 percent); and Germantown, Md., and Bridgeport, Conn. (each 51 percent). Nearly one in five U.S. residents now lives in a city or CDP in which one-third of the population speaks a foreign language at home. This includes Dale City, Va. (43 percent); Norwalk, Conn., and New Rochelle, N.Y. (each 42 percent); and Aurora, Colo., and Troy, Mich. (each 35 percent). In contrast to many of the nation's cities, in rural areas outside of metropolitan areas just 8 percent speak a language other than English at home. The data released thus far indicates that nationally nearly one in four public school students now speaks a language other than English at home.3 In California, 44 percent of school-age (5-17) children speak a foreign language at home, and it's roughly one-third in Texas, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, and Florida. Of school-age children (5-17) who speak a foreign language at home, 85 percent were born in the United States. Even among adults 18 and older, more than one-third of those who speak a foreign language at home are U.S.-born. Of those who speak a foreign language at home, 25.9 million (39 percent) told the Census Bureau that they speak English less than very well. This figure is entirely based on the opinion of the respondent; the Census Bureau does not measure language skills. Blumenthal: Kavanaugh nomination should be withdrawn BY JORDAIN CARNEY © Greg Nash Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) said on Tuesday that Brett Kavanaugh's nomination should be withdrawn, calling it a "stain" on the Supreme Court. "I think the nomination should be withdrawn," Blumenthal, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, told reporters. "He has raised serious doubts about his credibility in his testimony already. Blumenthal described Kavanaugh as "evasive" and "seemingly misleading," adding that the bar wasn't if he had assaulted someone, but his "credibly, trust, [and] integrity." "This nomination will not only cast a shadow over Judge Kavanaugh if he were ever to be confirmed... it will also stain the United States Supreme Court irreparably," Blumenthal said Most Democrats, including Blumenthal, have voiced their opposition to Kavanaugh's nomination. Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii), a fellow member of the Judiciary Committee, quipped that Democrats would be "delighted" if Kavanaugh's nomination was withdrawn. Republicans and the Trump administration have shown no interest publicly in withdrawing his nomination ahead of a high-profile hearing at the Judiciary Committee scheduled for Monday. Trump dismissed a question about withdrawal as "ridiculous," and Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) said such a move would be a "travesty." But speculation about whether Kavanaugh or the White House would withdraw his nomination has hit a fever pitch since Christine Blasey Ford, Kavanaugh's accuser, publicly alleged that Kavanaugh held her down and tried to remove her clothes in the early 1980s when they were both in high school. Kavanaugh has denied any wrongdoing.

Kaboom...Devin Nunes dropped a bomb on the Deep State and the fallout is unbelievable Devin Nunes launched another attack on the Deep State. The California Congressman fought to expose the truth about the Russian collusion hoax. And he just dropped a bomb on the Deep State that left every American wondering just how bad things could get. Nunes revealed he will release the transcript of 70 witness interviews. The House Intelligence committee ran an investigation on alleged Russian election meddling and found no evidence of collusion. Now Nunes wants the American people to see the evidence that the Russia investigation is a witch hunt based on a hoax. The Daily Caller reports: House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes said Sunday that he plans to release transcripts of interviews with around 70 witnesses in the Trump-Russia probe within the next few weeks. “We believe that the depositions that we took, I think for nearly about 70 people those need to be published, and they need to be published I think before the election,” Nunes said in an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.” “By published I mean put out for the American people to review, so that they can see the work that we did and they can see all of the people that were interviewed by us, and there are answers to those questions. I think full transparency is in order here so I expect to make those available from our committee to the American public here in the next few weeks,” continued Nunes. South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy, a member of the Intelligence panel, told The Hill Wednesday that the committee should release transcripts of interviews conducted during the investigation. The media breathlessly reported the Russian collusion story even though there was never any evidence to back it up. Journalists believed the only way Trump could have won the election was by cheating. So they promoted this crackpot conspiracy theory about Trump colluding with the Russians. BIDEN GAVE A LENGTHY ENDORSEMENT OF KAVANAUGH ACCUSER UNTIL ONE QUESTION CAUSED HIM TO WALK AWAY Grace Carr | Reporter Former Vice President Joe Biden emphatically supported Kavanaugh accuser Dr. Christine Blasey Ford Monday night, faltering only when a reporter asked him about the credibility of a claim made over 35 years ago. “What I’m going to do is I’m not going to answer any more questions,” Biden said, deflecting a reporter’s question asking whether it was significant that the assault claim refers to an incident that allegedly occurred when Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was 17 years old. “I’d be happy to talk about Ireland,” Biden added during his remarks to a group of reporters at Irish ambassador to the U.S. Dan Mulhall’s residence. Biden delivered a glowing endorsement Monday night of women who come forward with accusations of assault. “For a woman to come forward in the glaring lights of focus, nationally, you’ve got to start off with the presumption that at least the essence of what she’s talking about is real, whether or not she forgets facts, whether or not it’s been made worse or better over time,” Biden said, adding that “[coming forward] is like jumping into a cauldron.” Biden’s remarks follow allegations that Kavanaugh tried to force himself on Ford when they were both minors. The allegations were first reported by The New Yorker on Sept. 14. Ford’s name was not reported until Sept. 16. California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein sent a letter to the FBI about the allegations on Sept. 13, allowing this claims to gain widespread attention. Biden defended Feinstein against critiques that her timing is suspect, insisting that there is no right or wrong time to go public with an alleged victim’s allegations. “Dianne’s getting beat up now for why didn’t she go forward,” Biden said, pointing to a persisting question of “what is the individual’s right to come forward or not to come forward?,” according to WaPo. The former vice president added that the emotional trauma women endure by going public with allegations is not insignificant. “For all, it’s damaging,” Biden said. “For some, it’s devastating.” Kavanaugh rejects all allegations of misconduct. “This is a completely false allegation. I have never done anything like what the accuser describes—to her or to anyone,” Kavanaugh said in a Monday statement. “Because this never happened, I had no idea who was making this accusation until she identified herself yesterday.” Kavanaugh also said he wasn’t at the party that’s been described as the location where the assault occurred. Kavanaugh spoke with the Senate Judiciary Committee Monday evening about the sexual assault allegations. The Committee will hold a public hearing for Kavanaugh and Ford on Sept. 24.

Doubts arise over whether Trump court nominee's accuser will testify Lawrence Hurley, Richard Cowan WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A woman who has accused President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault decades ago has not yet agreed to testify at a U.S. Senate hearing set for next Monday, raising questions about whether the high-stakes public showdown will take place. Christine Blasey Ford, a university professor in California whose allegations have put Kavanaugh’s once-safe nomination in jeopardy, has not responded to attempts by the Republican-led Senate Judiciary Committee to contact her about appearing at the hearing, committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said on Tuesday. Trump stepped up his defense of Kavanaugh and expressed sympathy toward his nominee, who met with officials at the White House for a second straight day though not with the president. “I feel so badly for him that he’s going through this, to be honest with you,” Trump told a news conference. “... This is not a man that deserves this.” “Hopefully the woman will come forward, state her case. He will state his case before representatives of the United States Senate. And then they will vote,” Trump added. The hearing represents a potential make-or-break moment for the conservative federal appeals court judge’s confirmation chances for the lifetime post on the top U.S. court, as Trump pursues his goal of moving the federal judiciary to the right. Ford has accused Kavanaugh of trying to attack her and remove her clothing while he was drunk in 1982 in a Maryland suburb outside Washington when they were students at different high schools. Kavanaugh has called the allegation “completely false.” Republicans control the Senate by only a narrow margin, meaning any defections within the party could sink the nomination and deal a major setback to Trump. Senator John Cornyn, a member of the Senate Republican  leadership, appeared to cast doubt on Ford’s allegations. “We just don’t know what happened 36 years ago and there are gaps in her memory. She doesn’t know how she got there, when it was, and so that would logically be something where she would get questions,” Cornyn told reporters. Cornyn’s fellow Republicans have generally avoided criticizing Ford, instead castigating Democrats for not revealing her allegations earlier. The confirmation fight comes just weeks before the Nov. 6 congressional elections in which Democrats are seeking to take control of Congress from Trump’s fellow Republicans, which could be a major blow to his agenda. Grassley, whose committee oversees the confirmation process, initially said the planned hearing would be public but other Republicans indicated it could be held privately if Ford requests that. Chuck Schumer, the top Senate Democrat, urged Republicans not to “rush the hearings.” Democrats, already fiercely opposed to the nominee, wrote a letter to Grassley objecting to the planned format of the hearing, which was announced on Monday, including having just Kavanaugh and Ford as witnesses. “We have reached out to her in the last 36 hours, three or four times by email, and we’ve not heard from them. So it kind of raises the question ... do they want to come to (the) public hearing or not?” Grassley said in an interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt. “I want to hear from Dr. Ford,” Grassley said. “And she deserves to be heard because these are serious accusations. And I would surely hope she’d come Monday.” Ford detailed her allegation in a letter sent in July to Senator Dianne Feinstein, the committee’s top Democrat. The letter’s contents leaked last week and Ford identified herself in an interview with the Washington Post published on Sunday that included details about the alleged assault. Debra Katz, a lawyer representing Ford, said in television interviews on Monday that the professor would be willing to testify and called the alleged incident “attempted rape.” Katz did not respond to Reuters requests for comment. Democrats have so far also refused to cooperate with the committee’s Republican leadership. They have asked that the FBI conduct an investigation, a request that Republicans have rebuffed. Trump and other Republicans said they do not think the FBI needs to be involved. Feinstein said there should be more than just two witnesses, possibly to include people who Ford previously confided in. The committee’s Democrats said witnesses should include Kavanaugh’s friend Mark Judge, who Ford has said witnessed the alleged incident. A lawyer representing Judge sent a letter to Grassley saying Judge does not want to speak publicly about the matter. “In fact, I have no memory of this alleged incident. Brett Kavanaugh and I were friends in high school but I do not recall the party described in Dr. Ford’s letter. More to the point, I never saw Brett act in the manner Dr. Ford describes,” the letter quoted Judge as saying. Judge is the author of a 1997 memoir titled “Wasted: Tales of a Gen X Drunk,” which recounts his experiences as a teenage alcoholic. One Democratic senator, Richard Blumenthal, said Kavanaugh should withdraw his nomination. “I believe Dr. Ford. I believe the survivor here,” Blumenthal said. “... She has come forward courageously and bravely, knowing she would face a nightmare of possible and vicious scrutiny.” Republican staffers quizzed Kavanaugh about the allegations on a call on Monday evening in which the Democrats refused to participate. Committee spokesman Taylor Foy said other witnesses would be questioned ahead of the hearing. The showdown has echoes of current Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’ contentious confirmation hearings in 1991 involving sexual harassment allegations lodged against him by a law professor named Anita Hill. Thomas, the court’s second black justice, was ultimately confirmed, but only after a nasty televised hearing in which Hill faced pointed questions from Republican senators and the nominee said he was the victim of “a high-tech lynching for uppity blacks.” Grassley offered his assurance that Ford would be treated respectfully and not badgered during the hearing. All 11 Republicans on the committee are men. Four of the Democrats are women. Trump picked Kavanaugh in July to replace retired conservative Justice Anthony Kennedy.
