Last week before he was arrested and sent to the brig, Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller went on a rampage against President Trump and his family on Facebook. Scheller had this to say about President Trump and his family. President Trump. I was told by everyone to kiss the ring because of your following and power. I refuse. While I respect your foreign policy positions, I hate how you divided the country. I don’t need or want your help. You do not have the ability to pull US together. You may even win the next election. But your generation’s time is...

Facing a recall election Tuesday that could soon leave him without a job, California Gov. Gavin Newsom has been pointing to Texas as an example of where the Golden State is headed if Republicans takeover, according to a report. While campaigning last week, Newsom, a Democrat, made reference to a new Texas abortion law that many liberals fear could lead to the U.S. Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that legalized abortion in America. “The whole idea that a constitutional right, the right to choice, the right to reproductive freedom, rights of women, now are under assault...

President Biden on Thursday told Jewish leaders that he spent time at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh after the October 2018 mass murder of 11 people there — but the synagogue told The Post he never visited. “I remember spending time at the, you know, going to the, you know, the Tree of Life synagogue, speaking with them,” Biden said in a 16-minute virtual address ahead of the Jewish holidays Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Video below: Twitter LinkBarb Feige, executive director of the Tree of Life, said that Biden did not visit the synagogue in the nearly...

A video recently posted on social media showed Taliban fighters looking on as an iconic piece of US materiel (military hardware) – a Black Hawk helicopter – was piloted across Kandahar airport. The four-blade multi-purpose aircraft was just taxiing on the tarmac, but the exercise sent a message to the world: the Taliban were no longer a group of ragtag soldiers wielding Kalashnikov assault rifles on battered pickup trucks. Elsewhere, since the fall of Kabul on 15 August to the hard-line Islamist group, the Taliban’s fighters have been pictured showing off a host of US-made weaponry and vehicles. Some of...

The 13 U.S. service personnel killed during a suicide bombing at Afghanistan’s Kabul airport on Thursday represent a cross-section of Americans, all with compelling stories. The remains of the 13 US troops killed in an ISIS-K suicide blast are currently the Dover Air Force Base for dignified transfer, according to the Pentagon. The Pentagon declined to confirm whether President Joe Biden would attend the dignified transfer at the base in Delaware, his home state, which is the domestic intake point for US military fatalities abroad. Here’s the photo that was taken at the Kabul airport: There was nothing on the...

Several of the U.S. service members who were killed in an Islamic State-perpetrated terror attack in Afghanistan were identified Friday as tributes poured in honoring their sacrifice. Marine David Lee Espinoza, a 20-year-old from Laredo, Texas, was reportedly among the 13 servicemen who were killed by an ISIS-K suicide bomber outside the international airport in Kabul, which left another 18 service members injured and more than 100 others dead. The Laredo Police Department, which lowered the flags outside its headquarters in honor of Espinoza, thanked the fallen Marine for his service. “Our thoughts and prayers will remain with the family...

he United States launched an airstrike following a suicide bombing at Kabul airport earlier this week. The target of the drone strike, believed to have been killed with no known civilian causalities, was an ISIS-K fighter believed to be involved in the planning future attacks, according to two U.S. defense officials. The US military says it has killed an ISIS-K planner in the Nangarhar Province of Afghanistan. According to the US officials, the target was planning to attack US officials in Kabul airport. A UAV took off from an unnamed base in the Middle East and reportedly hit the target...

Two explosions, one just outside the Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul and another at the nearby Baron Hotel, caused several casualties Thursday. The attacks came less than a day after the U.S. Embassy warned U.S. citizens to get out of the area. Here’s what we know so far: The explosion outside the Kabul airport is “definitely believed” to have been carried out by the Islamic State group, a U.S. official told The Associated Press. The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the Thursday attacks were carried out by two suicide bombers and gunmen. Pentagon spokesman John...

Americans who trained Afghan pilots and ground crews are now raising the alarm about their safety. Though some flew out of the country, others are still in Afghanistan, hiding from the Taliban. And they are desperate to get out, fearing the Taliban may learn their identities and retaliate. As videos emerged of Taliban fighters carrying US-made M4 and M18 assault rifles and M24 sniper weapons, the US conceded it does not have the “complete picture” while adding that “a fair amount of it has fallen into the hands of the Taliban”. “Obviously, we don’t have a sense that they are...

Since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, several countries have been running evacuation flights for their citizens and passport holders. While the world is applauding this humanitarian help, some people might be misusing it for selfish reasons. Now, United States government officials have warned that nearly 100 Afghan evacuees are on intelligence agency watch lists and may be related to terrorist groups like Islamic State. Security screeners at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar have detected that at least one of the Afghans who was evacuated from Kabul Airport has potential ties to ISIS, a U.S. official confirmed to Defense...

President Biden welcomed members of professional women’s basketball team the Seattle Storm to the White House on Monday to celebrate their 2020 championship, recognizing them for inspiring women and girls and engaging in advocacy work off the court. Biden noted that three of the Storm’s players — Sue Bird, Jewell Loyd and Breanna Stewart — also represented the U.S. in Tokyo this year as members of the Olympic team. After marveling at the team’s work last season, he recognized the players for undertaking efforts to encourage vaccines, advocate for racial justice and voting rights, and protect transgender people. And just...

Portland, Oregon descended into violence on Sunday, as intense clashes broke out between Antifa and Proud Boys. One man was arrested for firing a gun at demonstrators, a car was broken into, and an ambulance truck was flipped. Luckily, no injuries have been reported. Portland has become a magnet for Antifa rioters given the city’s liberal stance. Portland police arrested a man, later identified as 65-year-old Dennis G. Anderson, on Sunday afternoon after he allegedly opened fire with a handgun. Footage filmed close to Southwest 3rd Avenue and Southwest Alder Street, where Anderson was arrested, showed a man firing a...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) was seen without her mask over the weekend at a Democrat Party fundraiser event full of unmasked attendees. The event was hosted by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) in Napa, California, where Pelosi was seen delivering remarks unmasked. The event was exclusively for old white liberals at a super spreader event while their ethnic, masked staff wait on them hand and foot. How minorities continue to be the turkeys that vote for Christmas baffles me. The video wasn’t intended to be released for public use but our team received the video this morning! Video...

Three people were hospitalized Saturday evening after a shooting in Times Square left the youngest victim, a 4-year-old girl, injured and started the NYPD on a manhunt for the gunman responsible. A senior NYPD official with direct knowledge of the investigation confirmed to NBC New York that all three victims were unintended targets of the shooting, and a preliminary investigation suggests none of them are related. The young girl was struck in the leg, a 24-year-old woman was hit in her thigh and a 44-year-old woman was shot in the foot, police said. All three victims were taken to nearby...

In April 2020 Democrats, Black Lives Matter, Hollywood, NBA, the tech giants, and Major US Corporations launched their official War on Police across the United States. The consequences of their actions have been devastating, resulting in 1,990 more homicides in urban centers this past year. The Democrat War on Civil Society resulted in a 33% increase in homicides across the major urban centers across the United States. We can all blame this on Democrats. But what happens when the Police themselves protect BLM who wants to abolish them instead of honest taxpaying patrots. This morning a video surfaced where a...

Israeli authorities faced more violence last night after a recent spate of shootings and as tensions soar over the threatened eviction of dozens of Palestinians from East Jerusalem. Israeli troops shot and killed two Palestinians and seriously wounded a third after they opened fire with makeshift submachine guns on a base in the occupied West Bank on Friday morning, Israel’s police said. No Israelis were injured. That came two days after Israeli student Yehuda Guetta, 19, died in a hospital from injuries sustained in a drive-by shooting Sunday as he was standing at a bus station near the West Bank...

So many people are ignoring the updated state guidelines — which no longer require people to wear masks when they walk, bike, or run alone or with members of their households if they social distance. One of them is Joe Biden the “leader” of the free world. Today he had another incident when a reporter called out Biden for wearing a mask after being vaccinated and around others who are vaccinated. Biden’s flustered response: “Because I’m worried about you— no, it’s a joke. It’s a joke.” While fielding questions, a reporter asked the president: “You walked out to the podium...

The Black Lives Matter movement is not only anti-police, anti-white, anti-capitalist but also proudly neo-Marxist. Patrisse Cullors is an American artist and activist. Cullors is an advocate for prison abolition in Los Angeles and a co-founder of the Black Lives Matter movement. She also identifies as a queer activist. That’s what the mainstream media and the Wikipedia page will tell you, but the reality is that they are an organization that has communist ties. Last year Patrisse confirmed that they’re proudly Marxists. Video below: The Black Lives Matter movement is not only anti-police, anti-white, anti-capitalist but also proudly neo-Marxist.
