Kathy Griffin Says, ‘I’m Scared As Hell,’ After Trump Sends Nasty Surprise To Her Doorstep

Kathy Griffin will always be remembered as the Hollywood “D-list” comedian who held up a life-like, bloody severed head of President Donald Trump for a photo that she posted for the world to see. Well, the world saw it, including Trump’s young son, Barron, who was rightfully traumatized by the event. Now, reports are coming in about the nasty surprise President Trump just delivered to Griffin’s doorstep, causing her to say she’s “scared as hell.”

Kathy Griffin was shocked when she answered her door to find the “men in black” on her porch. Yep, Griffin was “scared as hell” as the men identified themselves as the Secret Service. Griffin has tried to keep this under wraps, but TMZ and Circa News have been watching the Griffin residence, tipped off that the D-list comedian was about to get an official visit from the president’s special agents.

“Comedian Kathy Griffin was interviewed by members of the Secret Service for more than an hour after she posed for photos with a fake severed head that appeared to resemble President Trump. The news was first reported by political journalist Yashar Ali, who said that the Secret Service inquiry into the photo remains open,” reports Circa News.

TMZ‘s Harvey Levin’s connections told him that Griffin was under investigation, but it was not until they showed up at Griffin’s residence that we learned this was very serious for the 56-year-old actress-comedian. Apparently, this investigation has been going on for over a month, and now, we know that Griffin was on the hot seat with the Secret Service for over an hour.

“For context, Griffin’s lawyers confirmed that an investigation had been opened and that they intended to fully co-operate. Responding to a Think Progress article arguing that TMZ had become the media’s ‘most potent‘ pro-Trump outlet, the comedian hinted last week at rising tensions around the Secret Service’s inquiry,” reported Vulture.
So, Griffin is pissed off at Harvey Levin’s TMZ, and she clearly indicates in the tweet that this federal investigation is pretty serious. By saying, “may you never be under federal investigation,” she shows that the Secret Service isn’t fooling around. She’s under ongoing stress as the investigation heats up. When Griffin first accused Donald Trump of “trying to ruin [her] life forever” after releasing that notoriously gory photograph, most viewed it as an additional gaffe on the comedian’s part, a poorly conceived attempt to redirect the conversation away from how she’d been nearly universally condemned for crossing the line.

But, now, she is pointing to the ongoing federal investigation by the Secret Service as Trump trying to wrongly “ruin her life.” Liberal media are agreeing that Griffin is on to something, and they are backing her ridiculous attempt to make this about Trump settling a vendetta against her.

Huffington Post reports, “The comedian quickly apologized [for the pic]. Yet in a June 2 press conference held to explain her actions, she accused the Trump family of trying to ruin her life, calling the president a bully and stating that she would not back away from her criticism.”

Asked whether she thought the backlash against her was particularly harsh because she is a woman comedian, Griffin answered with certainty, saying, “This is a woman thing. I’m sorry if you don’t agree with me, but I live it. I’m 56 years old. Everywhere I go, there’s a male promoter. The people who sign my checks are white guys, usually older white guys.”

Kathy Griffin needs to hear this: Donald Trump got more votes from white educated women than Hillary Clinton. Many say that’s one of the big reason Hillary lost — because educated suburban women didn’t trust her at all. So, Griffin is damn lucky to get out of this without any prison time, and if she’s scared, so be it. It’s karma coming back to bite her in the butt. Barron Trump was scared too, thanks to the image he saw, but that mattered little to the left.

Like all liberal women, Griffin is a selfish man-hater, and they never take responsibility for their actions. There’s always a caveat to their so-called apologies. She’s getting exactly what she deserves, and other Hollywood celebs should be warned, Trump isn’t playing around when it comes to those losers who want to take him on, nor should he.

The Media Go Into Attack Mode Over ‘Awkward’ Moment in Poland That Everyone’s Talking About

U.S. President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump met with Polish President Andrzej Duda and his wife, Agata Kornhauser-Duda, on Thursday.

The official event was meant to signify the Trump administration’s re-establishing of relations with the U.S. ally in the context of a belligerent Russian adversary and lingering questions about military cooperation, including anti-ballistic missile defense.

Never mind all that, what did Melania Trump do to threaten the NATO alliance? Why, she greeted her Polish counterpart before the presidents shook hands.

The USA Today has the goods on the diplomatic situation:

On Thursday, Polish President Andrzej Duda and his wife, Agata Kornhauser-Duda, welcomed President Trump and first lady Melania Trump.

And it looked like Poland’s first lady was very ready to greet her U.S. counterpart.
The publication then points out that the president was passed over for his handshake with the Polish first lady, describing it as “awkwardness.” It goes on to point out the infamous hand swat incident, which also was of international importance.

Newsweek blared “Watch Donald Trump handshake rejected by Polish first lady in hilariously awkward exchange.”
British publication Express claims the first lady outright snubbed the president.

Donald Trump suffered an embarrassing moment as he attempted to shake the hand of the Polish president’s wife, who duly snubbed the US president.

Time reported outright: “Poland’s First Lady Doesn’t Want to Shake Trump’s Hand.”

Ouch? Or just a misreading of protocol?

Tommy Christopher of IJR’s The Response provides video evidence of the Polish first lady shaking Donald Trump’s hand via MSNBC:

In any event, Melania Trump garnered attention with her unconventional fashion choice, apparently another faux pas that will leave the European nobles chattering.

The presidential couple always knows how to get the world talking.

Melania Quietly Slipped Away Before G20 To Speak To Someone Personally For Unbelievable Reason

The president and first lady left on Wednesday for their second whirlwind overseas trip that started in Poland. The second stop was in Hamburg, Germany today where the annual G-20 summit meeting with other world leaders is being held along with an overwhelming riot that started at 8,000 angry people and is expected to swell to 100,000 violent activists protesting the summit that the Trumps and other world leaders are attending. During the intensity of the quick trip, Melania Trump managed to slip away for a moment for an unbelievable reason that left millions of Americans stunned.

The 24 hours that the Trumps were in Warsaw were different than the couple’s other international visits since Melania proved she’s a powerful first lady with an influential voice. She gave a speech to thousands of Polish people in attendance at the Uprising Monument on Thursday who were as moved by her messages as Americans who heard it back in the homeland. However, there was something privately she did while in Poland after slipping off on her own that speaks volumes beyond what she said in her speech today.

Before she gave her speech about everyone in the world, regardless of location, being able to live without fear, she replaced hate with love in something that’s become very familiar and unique to her, compared to all other first ladies. While Melania’s love of sick and afflicted children has been evident in her short time in the White House and on ever state trip she makes, this brief afternoon getaway before her speech was not at a children’s hospital.

Although Melania has an official platform as first lady, which is to combat the destructive epidemic of cyber bullying, just being her incredibly compassionate self is far more impressive than a specified focus she’s expected to have. Her actions are an example and influence not just in America, but around the world as we’ve seen on her recent international trips, including this one to Poland after what she did at Warsaw’s largest science centers.

The Daily Mail reports:

“Melania Trump delivered one of her most assured speeches to date on Thursday afternoon as she addressed a crowd in Warsaw after a day spent with her Polish counterpart visiting children at a local science center.”

“Melania said at one point in her speech that ‘people should be able to live their lives without fear’ while standing beside the landmark which serves as a reminder of Poland’s occupation by Nazi forces during World War II.”
“She also spoke about her ‘wonderful’ visit to Poland’s largest science centers, with the First Lady continuing her tradition of visiting with children on her trips with President Trump.”

“It was announced just before her remarks on Thursday that she would soon be heading back to the region as well, with Slovenian President Borut Pahor’s cabinet announcing that President Trump had agreed to travel to the country of his wife’s birth for a meeting.”

Melania was only in Poland for a few short hours after arriving the night before and had a big day of delivering an impressive speech, but that didn’t stop her from taking time for what’s most important to her. There was little to no coverage of this sudden hospital trip until now, hours after she arrived there.
Our gracious first lady has made children her number one priority in her role as well as special patients such as heroes being treated at Walter Reed for their serious injuries received while fighting for our country. She has visited a number of hospitals and spent genuine time with patients there, never in a hurry to get to other pressing matters within the presidency. She’s compassionate and caring to strangers with a real level of concern that hasn’t been seen in years.

“Melania was joined by Poland’s First Lady Agata Kornhauser-Duda for her visit to the Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw earlier in the day, where the two women spent time speaking with local children and posing for photos,” according to Daily Mail.

She came bearing gifts for these special kids, as she always does, to show her thoughtfulness. Melania reportedly handed out “red, white and blue backpacks covered in stars and stripes to some of the children at the center. “Photos from her visit to the science center show the First Lady smiling alongside the children and her Polish counterpart as she holds a hot-pink toy high heel, which perfectly matched the stripes on her designer dress,” Mail Online reports.

Melania is not trying to make an impression on anyone but the children who she prioritizes over irrelevant people’s opinions of her. Proof of that is that she doesn’t often bring an entourage to document her hospital visits and stays for a substantial amount of time so she can interact with each child individually.

Right After Trump Gave His Entire Salary To One Special Recipient Something Incredible Happened

The people of the United States still at times seem to be confused about who their President is. You can still see signs saying “not my President” or “I’m with her” etc etc. Somehow, people have missed the memo that the Presidential election was a winner take all event, and they no longer have a say in who sits in the Oval Office, not for another 4 years at least.

What is perplexing is how anyone could think that they would have gotten a better deal with Hillary Rotten Clinton. The money grubbing, felony committing former first lady with a rap sheet that would make a rapper proud, somehow made it to the general election, and still has supporters! Just in case you’ve run into any of them lately, I’ve got a great reminder for you of just one reason why President Trump is a great Commander in Chief.

Months ago the POTUS declared that he would be donating his salary to charity, instead of keeping it (like the money hungry Clinton no doubt would have done). Also unlike his opponent, he’s actually going to follow through on some of the good deeds he promises to do, and his first quarter salary was given, 100% to the restoration effort of a Civil War battlefield. The results are no doubt going to be breathtaking.

Via Young Cons:

When President Donald Trump was elected, he said that he would not take his yearly salary of $400,000.

He said that he would donate it to areas of the federal government that needed it.

Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke said that there was also $185,000 in matching funds that were donated.
The donations will go to helping restore a historic house and fencing, as well as other areas on the battlefield.

One of the basic problems facing today’s young (and, for that matter, a lot of adults as well) is the failure to teach the history of this country.

That leaves them not understanding what makes us exceptional as a country, and the great sacrifices of our nation and our ancestors to achieve that.

As the National Park Service notes, Antietam was the bloodiest one day battle in American history and was incredibly historically important.”

Preserving our history here in the United States is so important to us because every single day that we continue with this beautiful experiment that is our American way of life is a day that was built on the shoulders of those who fought and died for our freedoms. Remembering those sacrifices, and what we can do to prevent those horrible battles from happening again is one way of investing in our future.

Even CNN wasn’t able to ignore this story:

“The $78,333.32 that President Donald Trump donated from his first paycheck as President will help fund restoration projects at Antietam National Battlefield.

Interior Department Secretary Ryan Zinke announced Wednesday that the portion of the salary, which Trump in April announced he was donating to the National Park Service, will support restorations at the National Park Service protected area in Sharpsburg, Maryland, which commemorates the Battle of Antietam.
On the campaign trail, Trump promised that, if elected, he would donate his White House salary to a worthy cause. Under existing federal law, the President is required to accept the $400,000 salary that comes with the office.

The April decision to donate the first three months of Trump’s salary was announced at a White House press conference with Zinke after several weeks of Trump mulling over where the money should go. Wednesday’s announcement makes clear exactly what the money will support within the National Park Service.
