My husband and I live on the East side of Wicomico County and we went to the Civic Center to vote yesterday. When we walked up we saw Maryland Delegate Carl Anderton hanging out with the Democrat tent kidding, carrying on and laughing with them the whole time. When we got closer Delegate Anderton called us over and told us we needed to vote for Jim Mathias, Dan O'Hare, Jack Heath and Michele Gregory.
My wife and I are both Republicans and we thought Carl Anderton was as well. What the Hell is Carl Anderton doing with the Democrats and why the Hell is he telling us to vote for Democrats?
I hope you post this to help get the word out that your RINO Delegate is trying to get Republican voters to vote for Democrats. He has got to go.
I’m usually very quiet on Facebook but I really feel like I need to post something. I wanted to make a post to warn everyone in my area, especially if you go to Salisbury mall. My friend and I went to the Salisbury mall for lunch today. As we were sitting down eating, we were approached by a young girl asking to sit with us. (Keep in mind the whole cafeteria was empty so she could of sat anywhere else) She sits at our table and tries to make small talk with us. My friend noticed a man standing a couple feet away hiding behind one of the pillars in the cafeteria. As she was talking to us, my friend noticed this man staring at us and sort of signaling this girl things. As soon as this girl sat down, there was a very eerie feeling that came with her. It was one of those unsettling feelings you get when you know something isn’t right. She kept reaching into her bag but would stop when people would notice. She seemed very nervous too because she would keep tugging on her sleeves and her actions were off. We finally tried to get up and leave, but the man approached us quickly and tried to start a new conversation to try and get us to stay. It was one of the most uncomfortable and eerie feelings in my life. I have friends who have heard about human trafficking situations around the Salisbury mall and that thought was in my mind the whole time. Moral of the story, please do not go into places alone. Be careful and be on the lookout of situations like this. It’s a sad world we live in.
So I know you’ve all seen someone post something like this before but I’m gonna put out a warning anyway.
Tonight, Travis Alan and I were at Walmart North Salisbury with both of the boys doing some shopping. There weren’t a ton of people in there so it was easy for me to notice the same couple people walking around the store. However, after the second time I noticed two older men walking oddly close to us, I got a bit weirded out. Didn’t think too much of it still but went on alert. At one point near the end of our trip, I split off from Travis with just Evan and took him to look at some Halloween stuff. I felt like someone was walking up behind us kind of close so I instinctually turned around and noticed one of the older men was walking further ahead of his counterpart, oddly close to Evan. When we made eye contact, he turned around and walked back the other way. Okay, now I was creeped. Travis caught up and we checked out. On the way to the door, I got that eery feeling again. Something told me to check and make sure Evan was close by. When I turned my head, I noticed the same man walking ahead of his counterpart yet again, this time much closer to Evan. He immediately jerks his body in the other direction as soon as I turned my head. Then they both walk the other way.
I’ve never honestly been so convinced that someone was actually attempting to kidnap my child. Tonight I absolutely was. Be vigilant. Don’t let them go off ANYWHERE without you. Even to the next aisle. The days of wandering away from your parents to look safely at toys are long gone.
Ladies Please Please PLEASE be aware of your surroundings. Today I had gone to Walmart in middletown de around noon after being there for about 25 minutes I was out in home and garden lookin at Christmas decorations and noticed a man following me he had nothing in his hand nor did he have a shopping cart. For the next 10 minutes every time I turned he was there. I I had gone back in to the store to look at the indoor decorations and again he’s there. Finally the last draw was him walking closely behind me and as I slowed down to look at heaters he popped into the isle. I started walking away and he again was right behind me so I pulled my phone out immediately and he walked away very quickly. So after thinking all these stories were just a bunch of bs I now know THEY ARE NOT!!! My kids will not be aloud to go out of my site and I will always have my phone in my hand! I normally don’t get scared or shaken up but I must say this was a huge eye openerš” I stood in line texting my mom pacing looking around to see if he was anywhere around watching me. But he was gone! Thank god for the cashier who walked me out bc the manager just didn’t seem to care
Parents please watch your children. I am sitting at the boardwalk enjoying the festivities and a man in a wheelchair came up parked. He was next to me but ahead of me. So I was able to see over his shoulder. I look and he has his camera out zooming in on the little girls playing in the sand and boardwalk. We contacted OCPD they came over and he left. It's just sick and scary to think that some creep would be doing that. This a picture of the man in Ocean City MD taking pictures of little girls...
I was at Walmart north Salisbury a few weeks ago with my dad. He was a few aisles down from me because I was trying to rush and get everything I needed. While I was in the frozen food aisle I heard a guy say “hold on one min man” and he came down the aisle. He asked my name (probably shouldn’t have told him but I thought he was gonna be like oh okay I thought you were someone else” then he proceeded to ask me if I had a boyfriend, I told him yes, he asked me his race then asked if I liked black men. I started to walk away at this point and he goes “I can show you a much better time than he can”. Thank god I saw my dad. I know it’s not super suspicious but it still made me feel uneasy and weirded out.
Update 9/22 10:30am - Salisbury Centre Security has been in contact with police about the incident and gave me a call to check on me this morning.
Hi friends. I want to let everyone know about something really scary that happened to me today at the Centre at Salisbury in hopes of helping others out there.
As I was leaving work today, I noticed a car was following me slowly as I walked on the sidewalk around Macy’s. Once I got to my car I weaved around cars, going back and forth so as to see if I was actually being followed. The car kept driving slowly around the lot looking for me.
I went to my car, and the car pulled up in front of my car. I shook my pepper spray and the driver waved at me.
I got into my car - (now I’m thinking I shouldn’t have, as he knows what my car looks like.)
The driver waited for me to pull out and proceeded to follow me.
I drove up and down a couple aisles.
He followed.
I got out to the access road around the mall, and sped up to lose him, and swerved into another lot, then drove around to Macy’s again so I could go inside and let security know.
He was there and pulls up in front of my car, facing the other way. I had pulled out my phone to take pictures of him. I leave my car in drive and start screaming at him to roll down his window. He does. I ask him who is he? Why is he following me? Where is he from? He says no. “Cheng”. Here. No. I ask him if he is lost. If he needs help. He says no. I tell him I am going to get security.
I drive off and park in a handicap spot (with my placard from my doctor,) and race inside and let Macy’s manager and security team know. I then went to Mall Security. Mall Security made a report and escorted me to my car. We keep an eye out for the car. He is literally pulling in as we got to my car. He drove back by us. Security took a good look at him as he drove to another lot and acted like he was parking.
The security manager told me to get in my car and leave in a different direction and they were going to confront the man.
I don’t know what transpired after, but I’m real shook up. I just want to make sure people are looking out for each other, and if you don’t feel safe to please reach out to someone. I will update if I find out anymore.
Update 3:50pm - mall security confronted the man and he denied following anyone. Security explained his actions were inappropriate, and a report has been filed.
Update: 8:42pm To all who have commented saying my actions were wrong,
I am truly sorry for not being able to think fast enough, to push through the terror and panic to think of the best and most rational response - and for that I’m deeply sorry.
I was terrified. I AM terrified. Still.
If anything, I pray this post and the comments and advice can help anyone to be more vigilant, conscious, and aware.
A Viewer Wrote: The fire truck was behind a vehicle at a red traffic light. They turned on their lights and siren, which forced/encouraged the vehicle in front of him to proceed to get out of their way when another vehicle came through their green light and struck the vehicle trying to get out of the way. Unfortunately the vehicle in front of the fire truck is likely at fault but the fire truck should've known better and should've waited for the light to change. I forget to mention that the firemen had just walked out of the Acme with a shopping bag in their hands.
People talk about voter fraud and I never paid it any attention until today. This is my first time voting in the State of Maryland and they neither asked for my voter’s card or ID. They only asked for name, address and month and day of birth.
I voted at the Civic Center and wonder when will this area catch up with the times? We can’t afford computers? Do you really need to visit four stations in order to finally record your vote?
Even without computers this process could have been easily streamlined especially since they don’t look at your identification.

Donald Trump Jr. called out CNN’s Don Lemon Wednesday after the anchor declared that right-wing white men are the “biggest terror threat” in America.
“Amazing. I thought this was some sort of joke quote taken out of context but no… it’s just Don Lemon being a moron. Unfortunately this is how so many leftists actually think. Disgusting! Imagine the outrage if you changed ‘white men’ with any other demographic?” Donald Trump Jr. tweeted.

If you peer into Americans' grocery carts, you're unlikely to see a mix of foods and beverages that make for an ideal diet. And this is true for many of the nearly 42 million people who receive food stamps, too.
According to a 2016 report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, sweetened beverages, including soda, are among the most commonly purchased items by recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — or SNAP.
SNAP households spend about 10 percent of food dollars on sugary drinks, which is about three times more than the amount they spend on milk. In New York City alone,as we've reported, this translates into more than $75 million in sugary drink purchases each year that are subsidized by U.S. taxpayers.
Given our biological attraction to sugar, perhaps it's not a surprise. Our collective sweet tooth — which was shaped by evolutionary forces — extends far beyond SNAP households. In general, non-SNAP households spend almost as much on sweetened drinks — about 7 percent of food purchases, according to the USDA report.
Bear– The Delaware State Police have arrested three subjects responsible the burglary of a Bear convenience store that occurred early Thursday morning.
The investigation began at approximately 2:21 a.m., Thursday, November 1, 2018 when Troopers responded to the Express Food Market, located at 703 Pulaski Hwy., Bear. Upon arriving on scene Troopers discovered that the main entrance door had been smashed out, and a subsequent inventory revealed that an undetermined amount of tobacco products and lottery tickets had been stolen.
Through various investigative measures and leads, information was obtained which resulted in the execution of a search warrant at a room in the West Motel, located at 711 Pulaski Hwy., Bear. The search resulted in the recovery of property that was confirmed to have been taken during the course of the burglary. In addition to the stolen property, further evidence was located which positively linked three occupants of the room to the crime.
Loushannon Dennis, 22, Kyle Griffith, 20, both of Bear, along with 17 year old Phillip Plummer of Dover, were taken in to custody without incident and transported to Troop 2.
Each suspect was charged with the following:
Burglary 3rd Degree
Wearing a Disguise during the Commission of a Felony
Possession of Burglar Tools
Theft Greater than $1500.00
Criminal Mischief Greater than $1000.00 but Less than $5000.00
Conspiracy 2nd Degree
Dennis and Griffith were both released on $17,000.00 unsecured bail. Plummer was released to the custody of his guardian on $4,000.00 unsecured bail.
Populist Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini has announced his first steps to start deporting illegal migrants which will see the country invest 12 million euros and expects to deport at least 2,700 illegals.
The new plan is the first concrete proposal to start the process of deportations following Salvini’s closure of the ports to migrant transport NGOs, the major source of incoming asylum seekers, earlier this year.
The plan, which will also be half funded by the European Union, looks to deport migrants from countries including Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Bangladesh, and Pakistan with which Italy currently does not currently have a repatriation agreement, Il Giornale reports.
Ernest Hemingway once wrote, “How did you go bankrupt? Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly."
Howmuch.net, a website that provides visualizations about money, recently published a new report that shows a unique perspective, breaking down debt into the deficits of each U.S. President has added throughout history.
Hemingway’s warning looks strikingly similar when it comes to the U.S. national debt, which now stands at a whopping $21 trillion.
When President Trump was elected, the National Debt Clock at 1133 Sixth Ave., New York, NY, where it has flashed sobering stats on America's indebtedness from the Durst Organization-owned office tower since 2004, was quickly removed.
Now, one must check Twitter @NationalDebt for daily sobering tweets about the debt. And, as of October 29, the U.S. national debt officially stood at $21,694,906,926,249.
Before the Reagan administration, the combined cumulative U.S. debt stood at $750 billion, which Reagan almost tripled over eight years, said Howmuch.net.
After Reagan, his successors did not slow down, with George H.W. Bush adding $1.55 trillion in a single term, followed by Clinton at $1.4 trillion, Bush at $5.85 trillion, and Obama at $8.59 trillion.
Estimates already show that Trump is expected to add a total $4.78 trillion during his first term.
So the trajectory of the deficit is out of control. Reagan inherited a national debt of $750 billion, and Trump added almost $779 billion in fiscal 2018 alone.
A hard-charging New York congressman who forced his way into a federal immigration detention facility.
An intensely private Baltimore representative who says he just wants to cut through the "unnecessary BS" and get to "the facts."
A take-no-prisoners Los Angeles Democrat who has called on supporters to "push back" on Trump administration officials in public -- as many progressive activists took to restaurants and university events to do just that.
They're all part of the cast of prominent and lesser-known Democrats who have spent the past two years openly sparring with President Trump, and who are now poised to assume control of key committees if Republicans lose control of the House of Representatives in Tuesday's midterm elections.
Trump, for his part, has vowed to fight back, saying in an interview with The Washington Times that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif, was breaking the law by threatening last week that Democrats would use subpoena power as a "negotiating" tool. As Pelosi eyes reclaiming the speakership if her party takes power, numerous ranking members are lining up for influential jobs below her.
Let there be no doubt: U.S. Sen. Cory Booker can run for president and Senate at the same time.
Gov. Phil Murphy on Thursday signed a bill — unofficially dubbed “Cory’s Law” — that would clarify that a U.S. senator or member of the U.S. House from New Jersey can appear on the primary and general election ballots for those offices as well as for the presidency.
Booker, a Democrat and New Jersey’s junior senator, is widely expected to run for president in 2020, the same year he’s up for reelection for a second full six-year term in the Senate. In recent weeks, he’s visited Iowa and New Hampshire — which have the first presidential nominating contests in the nation — ostensibly to help out other candidates.
Booker, however, has acknowledged that he’s considering running for president.
The Afghanistan war cannot be won militarily and peace will only be achieved through a political resolution with the Taliban, the newly-appointed American general in charge of US and NATO operations has conceded.
In his first interview since taking command of NATO’s Resolute Support mission in September, Gen. Austin Scott Miller provided NBC News with a surprisingly candid assessment of the seemingly never-ending conflict, which began with the US invasion of Afghanistan in October, 2001.
“This is not going to be won militarily. This is going to a political solution,” Miller said.
Trump held a rally in Columbia, Missouri Thursday. The president campaigned for Republican Josh Hawley in his race against DC elitest Democrat Claire McCaskill.
The ads tell hunters to stay home on election day or they may lose their licenses.
“ATTENTION HUNTERS: If you vote in North Dakota, you may forfeit hunting licenses you have in other states. If you want to keep your out-of-state hunting licenses, you may not want to vote in North Dakota,” read the pair of ads.
