PBS White House correspondent accused of illegally voting: charges filed




White House correspondent for PBS Yamiche Alcindor who hosts "PBS NewsHour" has been accused of illegally voting in Florida and the chances are good that she did not vote for Ron DeSantis and that she doesn't even live in the Sunshine State--she lives in Washington, D.C.

The complaint was filed by the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), a research group whose mission is to “shine light on waste, corruption, and malfeasance in the federal government.” Somehow they've overlooked Joe Biden, but that's a story for another time.

The complaint was filed last week and called for the Florida Department of State to investigate Alcindor, according to the Washington Examiner.

“Public information indicates that Mrs. Alcindor is a resident of the District of Columbia, and therefore ineligible to vote in the State of Florida. Despite this, Mrs. Alcindor is registered to vote and has voted in the State of Florida,” the complaint states.

AAF posted on Twitter that Alcindor voted by mail in a Florida election on Monday.
.@Yamiche voted on Monday in Florida.

That’s the audit log from Broward county where she sent her mail in ballot. https://t.co/HhvKZ2u6Mr pic.twitter.com/s8JmAxEqxZ

The group noted that her husband, Nathaniel Cline, is registered to vote in D.C.

Alcindor had tweeted in the past:
Some news: I moved to DC this week to cover social safety net issues and how Trump’s administration impacts everyday people’s lives.

“This raises the obvious question of why Mrs. Alcindor does not vote at the [D.C.] address like her husband. There is no evidence that Mrs. Alcindor and Mr. Cline do not intend to spend the remainder of their lives together as a married couple,” the complaint said.

“How can Mr. Cline believe that their permanent residence is [the D.C. address] while Mrs. Alcindor supposedly believes it is [the Florida address]?”

Looks like the couple didn't do their due diligence.

The complaint continued, “If individuals are allowed to pick and choose where they vote, based on personal preference and not on their residency, then residency requirements become hollow. More importantly, when out of state residents vote in Florida, the votes of actual residents of the State of Florida are diluted and their constitutional right to vote is undermined.”

Alcindor had  commented on the then-ongoing trial of Derek Chauvin, who was facing charges of murder in the death of George Floyd.

As the prosecution and defense were making their closing arguments, Alcindor tweeted: 
Chauvin’s lawyer said it flies in the face of common sense to say Floyd’s death was not caused at least in part by his underlying conditions or drug use.

This argument is in direct contradiction to the prosecution’s case which says believe your eyes, Chauvin’s knee killed Floyd.

Her comments were criticized by many observers who explaned that she was ignorant of due process.
So prosecutors and defense attorneys have different interpretations of events in a criminal case.

Interesting. That’s some solid analysis there. https://t.co/Lqpmm9pGnq

The following month, the PBS correspondent told then-White House press secretary Jen Psaki that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reversing its decision to require vaccinated people to wear masks would put “people of color at risk.” Her comments drew laughter and rebuke since she was not wearing a mask at the time.

PBS' Yamiche Alcindor's total lack of legal understanding should not be a barrier to her reporting



The "PBS NewsHour" so-called correspondent Yamiche Alcindor's legal analysis of the closing arguments of the Derek Chauvin trial has the same credibility as Iran's claim that their weapons grade uranium enrichment will only be used for energy supply.

Chauvin's attorney, Eric Nelson, focused heavily in his closing arguments on George Floyd's heavy drug use and levels at the time of his death, along with his poor health. Nelson said that these factors, rather than Chauvin's knee on Floyd's upper shoulder, were the cause of his death.

But Alcindor did her fact-checking by relying on the prosecution's case which exclusively relied on Chauvin's use of force and not on any mitigating factors.

"Chauvin's lawyer said it flies in the face of common sense to say Floyd's death was not caused at least in part by his underlying conditions or drug use," Alcindor tweeted. "This argument is in direct contradiction to the prosecution's case which says believe your eyes, Chauvin's knee killed Floyd." So according to this idiot "correspondent," we should #BelieveAllProsecutors.

Critics mocked the taxpayer-funded reporter for her poorly informed analysis.

"Yes, typically the defense and the prosecution do present contradictory arguments," Daily Caller reporter Dylan Housman told Alcindor.

"Does not seem odd or surprising that the defense case would be in 'direct contradiction' to the prosecution case. That's the way it works," Washington Examiner senior political correspondent Byron York chimed in.

"Yeah wow so weird that the defense is contradicting the prosecution," conservative commentator Matt Walsh reacted.

CNN senior legal analyst Laura Coates, who somehow was able to get a law degree, ignorantly tweeted: "Defense begins the closing by defining reasonable doubt, not with why #DerekChauvin is innocent. Think about that," an apparent dismissal of the bedrock principles of the American justice system.

Think about this, Laura: the defense does not need to prove innocence. The prosecution needs to find guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

MSNBC means "Fake News" lies about Texas Church massacre

A Left wing panel on MSNBC's Meet the Press on Tuesday like about the brave man who stopped the Texas church shooter in Sutherland Springs Texas on an early morning Sunday early November. 

The failing New York Times reporter Yamiche Alcindor and host Chuck Todd lied, claiming that NRA instructor Stephen Willeford did not shoot at the Texas church shooter and did not stop his rampage.

This is due to the fact that Willeford was an NRA instructor and knew how to use a rifle and the Left can't bring themselves to crediting guns with saving lives.

"When I was watching President Trump today, and he was making his argument that [the shooter] was essentially stopped by someone with a gun, I kept thinking, 'but he killed himself,' Alcindor falsely stated. "The shooter was not stopped, there was not a big gun fight . . . and I think there needs to be a fact check on how this got stopped in the first place."

"The narrative here as you saw with Mike Huckabee and the president is a little bit off the rails," Todd stupidly responded.


What really happened was that Willeford heard the gunfire, grabbed his AR-15 and ran out of his house barefoot to engage the shooter. He shot the gunman twice.

"I know I hit him," said Williford. "He got into his vehicle, and he fired another couple of rounds through his window.

This was when Williford and another brave civilian got in a vehicle and chased the guy hitting speeds of 95 mph. The shooter lost control of his vehicle and ran into a ditch. He killed himself before police could arrest him.

Multiple law enforcement sources confirmed that Williford saved lives with his heroic actions. The MSNBC panel did not.

This really is a case of fake news.
