Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is calling on President Biden to refreeze $6 billion in Iranian funds in the wake of the recent attacks on Israel by Hamas. In a lengthy address laying out a five-step plan to address the escalating conflict in Israel, McCarthy took aim at the Biden administration for its prisoner swap with Iran and its decision to unfreeze $6 billion in frozen Iranian funds in exchange for the freedom of five wrongfully detained American citizens. “Biden’s policy on appeasement, including money for hostage deals, must come to an end,” McCarthy said Monday. “His policy has only...

A naked selfie of Joe Biden's brother Frank has been discovered on a gay porn site. The photo was uploaded to GuysWithiPhones.com in 2018, when Frank – who has a long-term female partner Mindy Ward – was 64. *** When approached by DailyMail.com, Frank, 69, conceded he was the man in the photo but denied he was the one who posted it. 'I've absolutely no comment. I could care less. I haven't even looked at it,' Frank said Monday morning when asked about the shot at his Florida home. 'They must have hacked my phone,' he added. 'Anything that is...

Hours after the deadly Hamas attack inside Israel, US President Joe Biden promised ‘rock-solid and unwavering’ support to its closest ally in the Middle East. Washington, which provides about $3bn in annual military aid to Israel, has ordered the movement of military ships and aircraft closer to Israel as a show of support following Saturday’s attack by the Palestinian armed group. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called the Hamas attack a “massive terrorist attack” in an interview with ABC News on Sunday. “We have immediately engaged our Israeli partners and allies. President [Joe] Biden was on the phone with...

They want to kill you. Not only that, but they want to take your home, hurt your family, destroy everything you have worked for, and remove your name from the earth. Take it from this Somali woman in Minnesota: All the people out there talking about "decolonialism," "de-centering whiteness," "equity," and "social justice" only have one endgame in mind, and you should understand it if you want to quite literally sacrifice yourself, your neighbors, and your nation on the altar of their bloodlust. The only way there is "freedom" for "occupied" lands is if the land is free of you....

[Catholic Caucus] Can Doctrinal “Development” Flout the Laws of Logic?Above: Cardinal Burke at the Vatican. The new “Dubia Brothers” include two of the original four (the other two now deceased), plus the modern confessor Cardinal Zen, the contemplative Cardinal Sarah, and Mexican stalwart Cardinal Íñiguez.Editor’s note: as the subject of doctrinal development is at the heart of the new Dubia, and indeed, the whole question of Modernism and neo-Modernism, we present again the work of theologian Fr. Brian Harrison with his logical analysis of the death penalty controversy. This analysis can be applied to evaluate all the alleged “developments” now...

Nikki Haley, the former governor of South Carolina, has ramped up her fund-raising in recent months, a sign that her performance in the early presidential debates may have invigorated her 2024 candidacy. Ms. Haley, who, according to her campaign, has raised $11 million across her political committees, entered October with significantly more cash on hand that can be spent on the 2024 primary than Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida — $9.1 million to roughly his $5 million — even as he out-raised her overall. But both Ms. Haley and Mr. DeSantis’s fund-raising figures were dwarfed by the man they are...

The sisters were among hundreds of young Israelis who attended the Tribe of Nova music festival near Kibbutz Reim when Hamas launched its attack against the Jewish state. One of the sisters called their dad as they fled to tell him that gunfire erupted at the rave, but a short time later, they went missing and have not been heard from since. “They told their father that they were being shot at and one of them may have been injured. It’s not clear to us,” Hezekiah said. “There was a video that was uploaded on social media and in one...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced an independent presidential bid Monday steps away from Independence Hall in Philadelphia, a move that was swiftly condemned by several members of his famous family. Kennedy, a prominent anti-vaxxer, first announced a presidential bid in April - saying then that he planned to challenge President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination in a nearly two-hour long speech in Boston. On Monday, alongside his actress wife Cheryl Hines, he changed his tune - saying he wanted independence from the two political parties. 'I'm here to declare myself an independent candidate,' Kennedy said in front of several...

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) has departed Israel after taking shelter in the country when Hamas launched a surprise attack from Gaza this weekend, his office announced on Sunday. A member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Booker had traveled to the country in part to deliver a speech at an event marking the deals brokered by the Trump administration to normalize relations between Israel and Arab nations. “On Friday, October 6, Senator Booker arrived in Israel for several days of planned meetings and site visits ahead of the start of an Abraham Accords-focused N7 summit on regional economic integration in...

The White House is being pummeled for hosting a barbeque on Sunday afternoon while war erupts in Israel. President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden hosted a barbeque for White House Executive Residence staff and their families around the Rose Garden, according to a White House pool report. Biden’s decision to hold the event was blasted by congressmen and conservative media figures as war broke out in Israel and United States citizens were confirmed to be among those dead following Hamas’ attack. “While Hamas holds Americans hostage, Joe Biden is enjoying a picnic with a live band,” Republican Missouri...

This week, California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) selected Maryland resident Laphonza Butler to fill the US Senate seat vacated by the death of Sen. Dianne Feinstein. Fred Jordan, chairman of the board of the San Francisco African American Chamber of Commerce, called the pick "completely unfair to the Democrats that have worked their tail off. The most qualified person for this job is Rep. Barbara Lee. She is the black woman the Governor should have appointed. Not some out-of-stater." Newsom defended his pick, saying that "not only is Ms. Butler Black, she is also a lesbian. This makes her ascension...

“Two-job Joe” should be Biden’s new nickname for his economy wrecking ball known as Bidenomics. The economic disaster known as Bidenomics (code for wealth transfers to the donor class) can be seen in the following chart. Non-elite households are struggling to cope with higher gasoline, food and house prices (rent) under Bidenomics. As a result, the number of people holding 2 FULL-TIME JOBS hit an all-time high of 447,000 people. Biden spokesperson Karine Jean Pierre is likely to say “See? Bidenomics is working! Not every person is holding 2 full-time jobs to afford that Ford all-electric Lightning F-150 pickup truck!”...

Since its launch last year, schools worldwide have struggled with students' use of the popular artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot ChatGPT amid cheating concerns. Mette Mølgaard Pedersen, an English teacher at Horsens Gymnasium in central Denmark, noticed that some students had submitted assignments with the help of an AI tool, just weeks after the launch of ChatGPT "My experience was that the students would use it without any kind of thought, and in that way, it becomes an obstacle to learning, and learning is the whole project here," said Pedersen "Because if we can have the conversation with them about how...

Do NOT be distracted by those USG officials and Sunday talk show hard left media pundits talking about money. That is a massive distraction from the colossal failure of US & Israeli intelligence, diplomatic & defense officials are currently witnessing in the Middle East. They will say how the $6B is to address humanitarian issues. That is an utter LIE!

VIDEOThe tragic events of the past few days makes it clear to those who might not already know that Jake Sullivan is absolutely the WORST National Security Adviser ever. His main "qualification" for the post of National Security Adviser is that he is a low life political hack more than willing to flat out LIE about the FRAUDULENT Trump-Russia Collusion conspiracy theory hyped by Hillary Clinton in her claim that the 2016 election was stolen. This cretin also brought back to life the HORRIBLE Iran nuclear deal which resulted in giving Iran six billion dollars a month ago. And now...

Amid mounting questions about Israel’s failure to anticipate the unprecedented attack by Hamas, an Egyptian intelligence official said his country had warned the Jewish state repeatedly about “something big” happening shortly. The official said Israeli officials had been focused on their struggles in the West Bank and played down the threat from the militant group in Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government is made up of supporters of West Bank settlers who have demanded a crackdown in the face of a rising tide of violence in the area over the last 18 months. “We have warned them an explosion...

Just a day after Hamas launched a wave of terror against Israeli civilians, Iranian officials brought out the Palestinian flag during a football match at the country's national stadium. Hundreds of Iranian football fans have objected to the Palestinian flag appearing at a match in Tehran on Sunday with chants to “shove the flag up you’re a**!” During a game between football clubs Persepolis and Gol Gohar at the country’s national football stadium, operatives of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) attempted to rally support for the Palestinian cause by waving Palestinian flags on the pitch. Instead of sympathy, the...

Joe Biden and his staff of execrables are liars of epic proportion. That muppet Karine Jean-Pierre does nothing but spew lies. John Kirby ("I saw no chaos in the Afghanistan withdrawal") is an absolute disgrace to the Navy. How that ahole got to be an Admiral makes me shudder. Mayorkas tells us that the border is secure. Biden, even in his few lucent moments, does nothing but lie to America. But here is a graphic reason of why I believe absolutely nothing any of these scumbags say. Here's that pasty white POS Jake Sullivan (who spread Russian collusion and Alfa...
