A new government report detailed the dire living conditions some military members face in their barracks across the country, highlighting a problem military leaders have so far struggled to fix. A report by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) found that young troops living in barracks on military installations have been forced to confront everything from pests such as roaches and bed bugs to toxic waste and even squatters, potentially putting the health and safety of members at risk while damaging morale. The 118-page report, which was published Monday by the GAO, concluded that military leaders at the Pentagon have not...

Democratic pressure is growing on Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., to resign after he was charged with bribery in an indictment filed in Manhattan federal court that was made public Friday. Rep. Josh Gottheimer, D-N.J., and Democratic state committee chairman LeRoy J. Jones Jr. have joined the growing chorus of New Jersey politicians calling for Menendez to step down. Gottheimer said in a statement on Saturday that Menendez "has been a critical voice and a tough fighter for Jersey, with a strong record," that includes gun safety, protecting women's rights and fighting racism and anti-Semitism. "I believe the Senator deserves his...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemJohn 17Jesus Prays for All Believers 20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may...

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) on Saturday became the first Democratic senator to call for the resignation of colleague Bob Menendez (D-NJ). In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Fetterman wrote that while Menendez is "entitled to the presumption of innocence" in the federal corruption case against him, he "cannot continue to wield influence over national policy, especially given the serious and specific nature of the allegations. "I hope he chooses an honorable exit and focuses on his trial," Fetterman added. Menendez was indicted Friday on charges including conspiracy to commit bribery, conspiracy to commit honest services fraud, and...

"The climate crisis,” said Al Gore at the U.N. a couple of days ago, “is a fossil fuel crisis.” “What climate crisis?” you might be asking, and you would be right to do so. Yes, it is impossible to turn anywhere in our enlightened, environmentally conscious world without being beset by lectures about one’s “carbon footprint” and horror tales about “global warming,” “rising seas” and imminent ecological catastrophe. But deep down you know that it is all hooey. Mark Twain was right when he observed that it is not so much the things we don’t know that get us into...

The massive indictment of Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and his wife has shaken Washington. As Senate Foreign Relations chairman, Menendez is one of the most powerful Democratic members of Congress, and someone who has long been a kingmaker in the party. He has also long been accused of open and insatiable corruption. What made Menendez a standout in Washington was not his corrupt inclinations, but his utter audacity in following them. I was able to witness that signature conduct personally on the floor of the Senate. In 2010, I defended a federal judge, Thomas Porteous, in his impeachment trial, against...

on MSNBC on Saturday, host Jonathan Capehart brought up wild speculation (based on anonymous sources) that Trump was shaking in his boots at the prospect of being imprisoned. Legal analyst Glenn Kirschner was asked to comment on a report in Rolling Stone (the Fake Rape News magazine) that Trump had wondered to unidentified associates about the conditions of his possible imprisonment, including whether he'd be sent to a relatively comfortable "Club Fed" type prison, or to a "bad" one. According to Kirschner, Trump's alleged curiosity meant he was "scared to death" and feeling "overwhelming consciousness of guilt."The trial on January...

“Only one to two percent” of deaths officially labeled as caused by COVID actually were induced by the disease. The rest were labeled as COVID but actually had other causes. So said an individual I spoke to recently, who I’ll keep anonymous, about the deceased people processed by this individual’s medical examiner’s office. I won’t reveal much about this person, who I’ll call “ME,” except to say that ME is highly trained and qualified and works at a major medical examiner’s office in New York State. ME’s information is not revelatory. We’ve heard from many sources that COVID numbers have...

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then...

Poor actions always have poor consequences. Here’s an incident that revolves around similar plot! A netizen recently asked, “Am I a jerk for suing my girlfriend after she had my 1967 Impala project taken to the scrapyard?”. We need you to find out! The Original Poster (OP) had a 1967 Impala 4 door that he bought in Feb 2019. A couple of months ago he bought his first house that had a 2.5 acre car garage. OP moved the car in and started tearing it down for a complete restoration. “I had the body in one bay and the chassis...

Every time they think, it weakens the nation. Reading this week’s news of the Biden Administration, I kept thinking of the Three Stooges poking fingers in each other’s eyes. As I started to write this, I see that Kurt Schlichter also compares this administration to the same trio, wrapping up their doings as Beetlejuice the Musical. Here’s what reminded me of that slapstick routine and why I think the administration is just being aggressively stupid. Nothing seems to get through to them; their conduct is clear evidence that they believe they can get away with being completely outrageous because they...

President Biden butchered LL Cool J’s name and then referred to the rapper as “boy,” before quickly correcting himself, while delivering a speech to the Congressional Black Caucus on Saturday night. The president has a history of referring to African Americans as “boy” — a term considered a racial epithet when used to describe black men. Earlier this year, Biden used the word while referring to Maryland’s first black governor, Wes Moore. The president has frequently used “boy” to refer to younger politicians, though he took flak while on the campaign trail for using the term to describe his ability...

Ever had someone tell you, ‘You’re missing the whole point! The purpose of Genesis is to teach that God is our Creator. We should not be divisive over the small details. Genesis teaches the theological truth of “Who?” and “Why?” not about the “How?” and “When?”’ Or else they say that the Bible is a book for faith and morality, not history.An obvious answer is, why should we trust Genesis when it says God created if we can’t trust it on the details? After all, Jesus told Nicodemus, ‘I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not...
