"The people will demonstrate on Saturday" Maxime Nicolle speaks for the "yellow vests" in Versailles, France 12/13/2018 Even before Tuesday's terrorist attack in Strasbourg, the call was out for the next phase of the 'yellow vests' protest on Saturday December 15th. In the aftermath of the attack, France's Justice Minister said that it was time to end the protests in light of what happened in Strasbourg. But there were questions and controversy over the government's tactics, which presents a message saying that since President Macron's speech on Monday offering concessions and the Tuesday terrorist attack, it is time for the...

Chambered in .223 Rem./5.56 NATO, the Snake SBR was created by Armos Gulan from Israel. The reason for such an extreme design lies in the challenge that the Israeli tactical team had face while encountered in their missions. That is the “window of opportunity” to lay down more lead towards a target within that milisecond. For instances some scenario such as spotting a target crossing a path or goes through a window. So how do you deliver the maximum amount of fire power at that instances? Use the “Snake”, this was the main reason for its creation. Theres also the...

Grabien News headline, picked up by and posted as cover on the Weekend Drudge Report: ‘Media Demand Trump Impeachment Following Cohen Sentencing Filing.’ Grabien News subhead: ‘Democracy is at stake’ if Dems don’t pursue impeachment’. In the name of honesty, how is the media demanding Trump Impeachment ‘NEWS’?

Border Security is National Security President Donald Trump is not Nancy Pelosi’s type of guy. Whine Cellar King Chuck Schumer and those brave boys grown tall hiding behind the voluminous skirts of the #MeToo Movement coyly identifying as ‘feminists’ are. Males who wear their self guilt as openly as they do their neckties such as Michael Skolnik, who as it turns out, led Louis Farrakhan advocating women lemming-like out on the Big Women’s March, are much more Pelosi’s cup of tepid tea.|

Anti-Caucasian, anti-male, anti-Christian and 'Unconscious Bias' curriculum Los Angeles attorney Eric Early, working with a group of Santa Barbara parents and teachers over anti-Caucasian, anti-male, anti-Christian and ‘Unconscious Bias’ curriculum, filed a complaint Monday evening in the United States District Court for the Central District of California on behalf of Fair Education Santa Barbara against the Santa Barbara Unified School District and JUST Communities Central Coast.

Comey needs the Democrats to win in 2020 to vindicate Comey The firing of James Comey was a shock to many and may have been to him, or his apparent ego, but it is now apparent that the first Deep State casualty of the “Swamp Wars” may have been justified. Comey was portrayed as a thorough professional, and although he was a registered Republican, he was not supposed to be affected by Party politics in his job. Even in May of 2017, just after Comey was fired, Peter Elkind, writing in The New Yorker took great pains to defend what...

And just to think that Reps. Speier, and Sánchez will be part of the attack when the Democrats try to impeach President Trump for allegedly paying “hush” money to Stormy Daniels from campaign finances when new members are sworn in on January 3, 2019 Salacious accusations that Donald Trump paid “hush” money from campaign finances to adult entertainer Stormy Daniels, who claims she had an affair with him, have suddenly become the latest drive to impeach him. But the burning unasked question to the media of the day should be: How can we take seriously any of your accusations when...

Turning on the tube this morning, you had to wonder whether you were actually watching Morning Joe, or a rerun of Saturday Night Live's satire of Mika Brzezinski's histrionics on the show. The doubt arose because Mika gave an exceptionally emotional performance that seemed like a virtual parody of the parody. As others spoke, Mika interrupted with excited yells. Check the mash-up below. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

A court recently upheld New Jersey’s ban on firearm magazines that hold more than ten rounds, but state officials have steadfastly refused to inform the citizens just how they intend to enforce that law. But the fact that it was upheld and coupled with news in a growing list of other states — not to mention the noise from Washington DC proves that the Democrats intend to make 2019 the year of gun confiscation and ending the Second Amendment in every way without saying it openly. As to New Jersey, Governor Phil Murphy signed the ban on extended magazines in...

President Donald Trump used a bizarre technique to toss the coin before the Army-Navy football game in Philadelphia, and people noticed. Twitter users poked fun at Trump after he launched the coin at Lincoln Financial Field on Saturday into the air like this: ...

Clandestine weapons like the World War II FP-45 pistol, later dubbed the Liberator by the Office of Strategic Services in 1944, have always intrigued me. It remains the rarest of American martial handguns from the conflict, with original examples usually starting in the $1,500 range for rusty, damaged pieces and the best examples, with their impossibly rare waxed shipping boxes, bringing over $7,000. Myths and misinformation hide the pistol's real story; they weren't wildly inaccurate junk guns that exploded after a few shots, and they were never tossed out of airplanes over occupied Europe en masse. THE FP-45 PISTOL was...

Sue Dickson is best known as the creator of Sing, Spell, Read, and Write, one of the most popular phonics programs. Now in her 80s, she is still active as ever, pushing phonics however possible, and refining a new approach. The ups-and-downs in her career tell us a lot about the sad state of American education. In her college’s pre-teacher program, she was taught nothing about phonics. Not only that, when she started to teach first-grade, her superiors constantly emphasized their verdict that phonics is useless and even dangerous. Sue Dickson recalls: “I was told that phonics doesn’t work, that...

Nineteen-year-old Maryury Elizabeth Serrano-Hernandez, a Hondruan woman who made the grueling 2,000-mile trek to the U.S. border with her husband and three-year-old in tow, wasn’t about to miss out on what she called the “big reward”: having a baby on American soil. But when the family reached Tijuana a month after they set out on their journey, they found that thousands of Central Americans had had the same idea before them. With U.S. inspectors processing only about 100 asylum claims daily, Serrano-Hernandez — who was eight months pregnant — wasn’t about to wait her turn. Somehow she managed to scale...

What they call "cable news" these days often is a repetitive exercise in speculating that the worst for Donald Trump is always right around the corner. On Monday, the doomsaying ghouls of Morning Joe reveled in Trump's troubles, prematurely dancing on the President's political grave. But not even the prospect of Trump being hounded from office satisfied them. No, they gleefully predicted that even as an ex-President, Donald Trump would be beset with problems "for the rest of his life." [snip] Donny Deutsch then delivered the coup de un-grace, proclaiming that the President's current predicament is: "Just the beginning. This...

The "Ruby" pistol is the result of France's desperate need for arms in the early days of the Great War. By 1915, much of the French industrial heartland was under German control, and what remained under allied control was producing critically needed material such as rifles, machine guns, and artillery. As the conflict grew beyond even the most pessimistic expectations, the sheer volume of troops sent into battle literally exhausted the meager stores of small arms. To meet this rising demand for pistols for the trenches, the French contracted with the Spanish firm of Gabilondo y Urresti-Eibar for their Ruby...

Yes. Christmas is celebrated in China. Surprise! In fact, it is celebrated all over China, from the biggest “Westernized Cities” such as Hong Kong and Shanghai to the lowest village in the Hunan mountains. It is celebrated with vigor. Let’s talk about Chinese Christmas. Now, American Christmas is different than a Chinese Christmas. There are many reasons for this. The big one is that Christmas is being phased out by mega-corporations. Of course, there is a big progressive anti-Christmas purge prevalent in the United States today. Thank you Barrack Obama. By the rabid success of it, you might get the...

The number of arrests yesterday in France was raised even higher today to nearly 2,000. 1,939 is the latest number from the government, which also says that 136,000 people participated in the protests yesterday. Lawyers groups denounced the arbitrary nature of arrests, many of which were described as preventive by the authorities. People were arrested because they looked dangerous or were carrying items considered dangerous. 500 people were reported to still be in custody as of Sunday evening.....
