    If Israel can't be eradicated though war, it can be destroyed through demography. While more than 1200 rockets rained down on southern Israeli towns during the latest violence from Gaza’s Hamas, the terrorist organization’s leader Ismail Haniyeh arrogantly warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to "play with fire . . . Neither you nor your army and police can win this battle. What's happening in Jerusalem is an intifada that must not stop." In fact, an unending intifada against the Jewish state has been the central mission of Hamas since its inception, and part of that war against Israel...

    Support for President Trump has become something of a litmus test in today’s GOP. While this actually is not a bad measure of political backbone for a Party often in need of it, the removal of Liz Cheney as Conference chair and her replacement with up-and-comer Elise Stefanik, is a reminder that in order to project and protect conservative values, the Party needs more. Much more. Beyond Stefanik’s support for Trump is a troubling voting history in Congress. According to FreedomWorks’ 2020 congressional scorecard, Stefanik received a paltry 37 percent on scored votes. By comparison, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez scored a...

    "Price Support" means a downward chart pattern that shows very strong buying at certain historical price points when the stock was previously going down...The rationale is that the buyers at those price points were not speculators, and they will not dump their shares during a panic.
  • CNN’s Lemon: Black Lives Matter, ‘White Lies Matter Too’ — GOP Whitewashing Capitol Riot

    CNN anchor Don Lemon said on his broadcast of “Don Lemon Tonight” that the Republican Party was trying to “whitewash” the events of the January 6 Capitol riot because House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said he did not support the legislation to create a bipartisan commission to investigate the events of January 6 because the scope is too narrow. Lemon said, “This is live in Washington, D.C. where Republicans are trying to whitewash the Capitol insurrection, trying to stop a bipartisan commission from getting to the truth of what happened on one of the darkest days in American history.”
  • The Agency Continues a Pattern of Arbitrary, Dubious and Ever-Changing Recommendations

    "My promise is that CDC will continue to follow the science as our guide," Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told senators last week. While Walensky thinks the CDC already is doing that, her premise is contradicted by the agency's history of arbitrary, dubious and ever-changing advice about COVID-19. Early in the pandemic, the CDC, together with the Food and Drug Administration, disastrously bungled the rollout of virus tests, making it impossible to curtail the spread of COVID-19 through contact tracing. Its obstruction of independently produced tests was coupled with irrationally narrow guidelines that initially...
  • Will Vaccine Passports be America’s Version of Yellow Badges?

    American Thinker ^ | 19 May, 2021 | Janet Levy
    The vaccines are experimental yet the public is being coaxed into taking them. With millions of Americans vaccinated against COVID-19, a national debate now rages over “vaccine passports” (or vaxxports) that privilege those who have taken “the jab.” These proofs of immunization take the form of a smartphone app with a personalized QR code. Those favoring such digital certification say it makes us “safer” as a society and hastens a return to pre-pandemic normalcy. But critics liken it to China’s social scoring system (Social Credit System) aimed at rewarding those who conform and punishing those who don’t. They decry it...

    A man was arrested Tuesday after he attempted to kidnap an 11-year-old girl at a bus stop in Escambia County, according to the sheriff’s office. Sheriff Chip Simmons said Jared Stanga, 30, faces charges of attempted kidnapping and aggravated assault with a knife. Simmons said Stanga has a criminal history, including sexual offenses with a child. Below is the moment where the 11-year-old Florida girl fought off a knife-wielding pedophile who had leaped from his van to try to abduct her.

    PARIS - French police officers held a huge demonstration outside parliament Wednesday to press for a law that protects the protectors who are feeling vulnerable to attacks, angry and useless. The rally by security forces represented a bold and unusual move for members of an institution that stresses duty and discretion. The protest also morphed into what looked like a campaign stop for politicians ahead of regional elections next month and a presidential race next year, with security a top concern. With two officers killed in recent weeks - one in a terrorist attack and another by a suspected 19-year-old...

    Turkey season in Tennessee ended on a repulsive note for one unlucky hunter. Inside it’s crop were dozens of cicadas, dead but completely intact, their beady red eyes staring out from the bird. Don’t let anything go to waste, one commenter suggested: “Smoked Turkey breast and chocolate covered cicadas for dessert.” “Cicadas, it’s what’s for dinner!” wrote another.
  • Holding Islamic State Terrorists Accountable for the Yazidi Genocide in Iraq

    In early May, the U.N. released a report updating its investigation into the horrid crimes perpetrated by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria terrorists against almost every group in northern Iraq and eastern Syria. The goal of the investigation is bold -- to hold accountable the ISIS thugs who committed the atrocities. For several reasons, I was interested in the report's update on the genocide ISIS thugs committed against Iraqi Yazidis when the terrorists invaded northern Iraq in 2014. Genocide is the correct word. If it describes the 1994 campaign of mass ethnic murder waged by radical ethnic Hutus...
  • Nike, American Airlines and Coca-Cola are slammed by Consumers' Research for using 'woke politics' and support of BLM to 'distract from their hypocritical failings'

    Nike, American Airlines and Coca-Cola have been accused of putting 'woke politicians' ahead of their customers. The three companies were targeted in a $1million ad campaign by Consumers' Research, a nearly 100-year-old conservative-leaning watchdog. -snip- In their third clip, named Busted, the company criticized Coca-Cola - which has its headquarters in Atlanta - for speaking out against Georgia's voting law. 'Coca-Cola is getting political,' the voice-over said. 'Attacking Georgia's popular voting laws. Why? To distract from years of dismal sales and terrible 2020 results.' They said Coca-Cola was 'poisoning America's youth and worsening the obesity crisis.' They also attacked the...

    President Biden on Tuesday drove the new F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck on a Michigan test track — and jokingly threatened to run over reporters if they asked about the conflict in Gaza. Biden, in the driver’s seat, said through an open side window, “This sucker’s quick.” The unscheduled test drive followed indoor remarks at a Ford facility in which Biden pushed for federal subsidies for electric vehicles.
  • How progressivism reverses socialism, and how progressivism drew in innocent supporters

    05/19/2021 6:13:56 AM PDT · by ProgressingAmerica · 14 replies
    In the course of reading the works of progressivism, it's not uncommon for these elitists to portray how better they are compared to everyone else. That includes the progressives' elitism against socialists. Taft's running mate in 1912, Nicholas Murray Butler wrote quite the scathing anti-socialist work in 1907 called "True and False Democracy" in which he wrote the following: (source) The socialist propaganda, never more seriously or more ably carried on than now, is an earnest and sincere attempt to escape from conditions that are burdensome and unhappy. Despite its most imperfect interpretation of the economic significance of history and...

    Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh, both nominated by Republican presidents, have both written absurd opinions on abortion laws. The case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health, which the Supreme Court will hear this year, could give them an opportunity to redeem themselves. At issue, in this case, is a Mississippi law that bans most abortions after a baby's 15th gestational week. The question: Can a state prohibit doctors from killing unborn babies who are not yet old enough to survive outside the womb? In the 2016 case of Whole Woman's Health v. Hellerstedt, Chief Justice John Roberts...

    SPECIAL DISPATCH FROM WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, Saturday, May 18. Gen. BUTLER has received his orders, and leaves to-morrow morning, if he can complete his arrangements, for Fortress Monroe, where he will take command. What he will do, has already been foreshadowed in these dispatches. That Fortress Monroe is to be the rallying point for operations in Virginia, there will probably be no doubt hereafter. Gen. BUTLER's plan, as published in the TIMES, for retaking the public property, at Gosport, Richmond and Norfolk, is the most feasible and certain of any yet proposed, beyond a peradventure. He says, if possible, he shall...
