It’s a fair question, “What the hell is wrong with the people of Gaza?” after witnessing the atrocities of last weekend, including now-confirmed reports of murdered Jewish babies, some of them beheaded. But the question is much bigger than this week’s expanded conflict, which did not begin in a vacuum. ...Even if I were a Gazan in good standing, dedicated to the destruction of Israel, I imagine I’d be pretty upset if my local officials were tearing up the neighborhood’s water pipes to make weapons. Sure, ‘Kill the Jews’ and all that but I’d still like some fresh water for...

Among the most horrifying Hamas atrocities to come to light following their terrorist attack on Israel is the report that they beheaded babies.Hamas terrorists slaughtered at least 40 babies and young children — decapitating some of them — at a kibbutz near the Gaza border, shaken Israeli officials and reporters at the scene said Tuesday.“It’s hard to even explain exactly just the mass casualties that happened right here,” visibly distraught i24 News correspondent Nicole Zedek said during a broadcast from Kibbutz Kfar Aza near Sderot about a quarter-mile from the Gaza Strip.“Babies with their heads cut off, that’s what [the...

Spock rejoining the Defiant as Science Officer brings his career full circle, starting in the same position on the Enterprise. Spock demonstrates his ability to do whatever he wants, using his influence and status to get what he wants without repercussions.

Let’s wrap this up by getting to brass tacks here.This isn’t a fight between Democrats and Republicans, or even between Liberals and Conservatives. This is a fight to the death between the populists and the elites. Sarah Palin is the anti-Obama. He is urban; she is rural. He preaches dependency on the government and she leads a life of independence. He consistently apologizes for the sins of the country he was elected to lead, and she is unabashedly proud of it. He opposes the war in Iraq; she has skin in the game. And on and on.And that is why...

Donald Trump “demanded” an apology from Forbes magazine after it dropped him from its list of the 400 wealthiest people in the US for the second time in three years. “I hereby demand a full apology from the failing Forbes magazine,” the former president wrote on Wednesday on Truth Social, the reportedly struggling social media platform he set up after being expelled from mainstream platforms over the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Forbes released its Trump-free list last week, saying the his net worth was down $600m from a year before. Trump has been on the list since the...

Let's kick this one off with a brief, current bio of (usually) liberal journalist Christiane Amanpour. British-Iranian Amanpour is the Chief International Anchor for CNN and host of CNN International's nightly interview program "Amanpour." She is also the host of "Amanpour & Company" on PBS. So, the juxtaposition of Amanpour, CNN, and PBS — yeah, PBS, as in who knew? —is why I chose to write this article. In the aftermath of the radical Islamist group Hamas launching a brutal and unprecedented ISIS-like attack in Israel, during which, babies were reportedly murdered and other atrocities committed, Israel Defense Forces (IDF)...

A new report by Megan Basham shows what we’ve all known to be the case, that “Christianity Today Staff Made Extensive Campaign Donations Between 2015 And 2022…All Went To Democrats” We’ve rarely been friendly toward CT, and with good reason. Led by the vexatious Russell Moore, they’re the progressive rag known for virtue-twerking and giving a platform to every weird and liberally insidious bent. They carried op-ed’s by Karen Swallow Prior saying it was un-Christlike to call women who killed their babies ‘murderers’ because abortion is not murder, had a lesbian Roman Catholic write about her masturbation habits, comparing masturbation...

It has been named the happiest place on Earth - but according to one very unhappy Disneyland guest, the once-beloved theme park has all but lost its magic entirely. A Reddit user took to the website to slam the iconic park, claiming the exorbitant ticket prices and long wait times have become so 'atrocious' that visiting the tourist hot spot is no longer 'worth the effort or the money'. 'Literally everything is a queue,' the user complained in the Unpopular Opinion subreddit. 'Going to the bathroom, Queue. Want to eat? Queue. Want to buy a souvenir? Queue. Want to get...

Americans are "armed" and will not be intimidated, commenters including Rep. Matt Gaetz have said, after a former Hamas chief called for a "Day of Jihad" by Muslim communities around the world on Friday, October 13. Khaled Mashal, who now heads the militant group's diaspora office in Qatar, told Reuters on Wednesday that Muslims should "head to the squares and streets of the Arab and Islamic world on Friday" and hold mass protests in support of Palestinians as the conflict with Israel intensifies. In a video posted on YouTube, but since removed, he also called for Muslims "to show anger"...

US Senator John Fetterman caused Mensa to be sued when he announced “You all need to know that America is not sending their best and brightest to Washington, D.C.” White House Paid Liar, Karine Jean-Pierre, filed suit against Mensa for its discriminatory practice of limiting its membership of the best and brightest to the top 2% of IQ scores. This rule relegates 98% of the general public and 100% of black female lesbians to the discriminated class of less than best and brightest. Karine suggested that minorities should be afforded some sort DEI incentive to strengthen the minority representation in...

President Joe Biden-appointed U.S. District Judge David Herrera Urias issued a decision Wednesday allowing New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s (D) ban on concealed carry in parks and playgrounds to remain in effect. On September 13, 2023, Breitbart News reported that Urias granted a temporary injunction against Grisham’s September 8, 2023, ban, which prohibited concealed and open carry in larger New Mexico cities like Albuquerque. The ban applied to licensed concealed carriers, too.
