St. Louis prosecutor allegedly ordered crime lab to tamper with evidence in McCloskey case

This can be verified, it appears:

The famous handgun, along with Mark McCloskey’s AR-15 (clearly visible in the memes) were confiscated by local police and taken to a crime lab, where the alteration to the handgun took place. Technicians were able to successfully re-engineer the gun and make it fire again.

The handgun had been permanently disabled by putting the firing pin spring on the wrong side of the firing pin, making it inoperable. The McCloskeys indicated that it has been used as a prop in a courtroom during a lawsuit the couple had brought against a gun manufacturer.  They had done this to the weapon so that it could be admitted into the courtroom legally.

Used in court as un-fire-able? But once prosecutor’s crime lab got through with it . . . ?

Black Lives Matter sues to keep federal agents out of Chicago

A BLM founder:

But her lawyer is ill-informed:

“We know the authoritarian tactics they have planned because of what they’ve been doing in Portland,” attorney Tess Kleinhaus, who filed the suit, said Thursday during a news conference downtown in Federal Plaza.

But this Chicago incursion is not the Portland kind at all, and Mayor Lightfoot is all for it.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot appeared open to the plan, while drawing differences from the Trump administration’s aggressive response to the unrest in Portland, where federal officers clashed with protesters as local and city officials called for them to leave the city.

“Federal agents who are here in Chicago have been here for decades. … They know their city and they live here. … They’re not federal troops,” Lightfoot told reporters Wednesday. “They will be plugged in to the existing infrastructure of the agencies, manage and supervise existing cases and investigations. That’s a big, important difference.”

Let us hope it all works out.

Fauci gushing over Hillary after her “What difference does it make” Benghazi hearing in 2013: “We all love her and are very proud to know her”

Fauci fawned. To her secretary, love and (all but) kisses:

Anyone who had any doubts about the Secretary’s stamina and capability following her illness had those doubts washed away by today’s performance before the Senate and the House. She faced extremely difficult circumstances at the Hearings and still she hit it right out of the park. Please tell her that we all love her and are very proud to know her.

Gosh.
