President Trump will be on for an hour today with Clay and Buck! Clay and Buck can be heard from noon to three Eastern time.

A senior Hamas commander told the UK's Daily Mail that Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar had "destroyed" the lower levels of the terrorist movement by ordering the October 7 attack, according to a report by the British newspaper on Sunday. The commander, calling himself Abu Mohammed, told the newspaper in an interview over Telegram that originally the plan was to kidnap a few Israeli soldiers, but the orders were changed at the last minute by Hamas military leaders to conduct the massacre which ended up taking place on that tragic Saturday morning a month ago. "Our reason to...

Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a JewFrom First They Came by Pastor Martin NiemöllerTHERE are more big anti-Israel/pro-Palestinian (aka Hamas) protests planned for Remembrance Weekend, more loud and defiant celebrations of the massacre of Israelis, more calls for the genocidal removal of Israel and Jews from their ancestral homeland and legitimate country. The language of government used to express abhorrence of what happened on October 7, and support for Israel’s right of self-defence, and labelling of the rallies which have already taken place as ‘hate marches’ would suggest that...

THE FAMILY OF a Kiss guitar tech — who died while quarantining in 2021 after contracting Covid during the band’s End of the Road World Tour — is suing for wrongful death, according to a lawsuit reviewed by Rolling Stone. Catherine Stueber, whose husband Fran had served as guitar tech for Paul Stanley for decades, filed the suit in Los Angeles on Wednesday along with several members of her family, claiming both negligence and wrongful death. Kiss founding members Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, their longtime manager Doc McGhee, the tour’s promoter Live Nation, and hotel chain Marriott International were...

Good things can come from tragedy. Our "normie" neighbors are finally waking up. They're emerging from their fragile cocoons that protected them from the terrifying truth: our nation is facing a historic, existential threat to the values We the People have, for too long, taken for granted. The brutality of Hamas's attack on Israel undercuts what bozos like Obama and George W. Bush have told us for years: Islam is a religion of peace. The attack also revealed the unprecedented hatred leftist stains have against Jewish-American people. On another front, the trannifesto left by the transgender school shooter in Nashville,...

Democrats are asking Americans to implicitly trust them on the Georgia case, just like they did with the “Russian collusion” witch-hunt. The Left’s never-ending attempts to vilify everyone in Donald Trump’s orbit never cease to amaze. From top advisors to future cabinet members, they are taking down anyone who merely agrees with the former president. Even the waitstaff at Mar-a-Lago are not immune. Are Democrats so intolerant that they cannot entertain an opposing thought without massive, overreaching destruction? Does a challenge to a socialist’s core threaten them so much that there are no barricades to stop the crossing of the...

Shark Tank” star Kevin O’Leary said Tuesday that clean energy funds and stocks are dropping because investors realized that clean energy companies can not make a profit. Several stocks and exchange-traded funds in the “clean energy” sector, including Enphase Energy, the Invesco Solar ETF, the iShares Global Clean Energy ETF and the First Trust Global Wind Energy ETF have seen substantial drops in their share prices in the last year. .. Joe Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act, spends $370 billion to combat climate change and is loaded with green energy provisions, including a $7,500 tax credit for electric vehicles,...

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Ramallah) is fighting back using a strategy that Islamist spokesmen in the West have frequently favored over the years: she’s lying. This shouldn’t come as any surprise to anyone: in the book that those spokesmen and Tlaib consider to be holy, lying to infidels. Of course Tlaib knows that "From the river to the sea" means racist supremacist Arab Islamic ethnic cleansing of Jews. With those same fake tears this bigot repeated the bloodlibel when jihadiats killed their people in the al-Ahli Hispital on Oct/17 and blamed Israel for their crimes. Blubbering Rashida Tlaib Repeats Claim That...

@LeadingReport BREAKING: A woman's family has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against a New York hospital for refusing to treat her COVID-19 infection with ivermectin, even though her doctor had prescribed it.

We all know about gold and guns. But here are some important provisions that might not occur to most people. Our national descent into the hellish landscape of climate hysteria, virulent Jew-hatred in the streets, and Marxist-Leninist despotism continues unabated. Due to runaway inflation and the massive federal debt, the dollar’s value has shrunk like a cheap cotton towel washed in hot water. Weekly grocery bills and energy costs have almost doubled since 2021, while real wage growth has declined due to the economic strangulation of progressive bureaucratic regulation and nonexistent congressional oversight. Combine this bleak economic outlook with our...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemActs 11The Church in Antioch 19 Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. 20 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord. 22 News of this reached the church in Jerusalem, and they...

Democrats had plenty of good news to celebrate in Tuesday’s off-year elections and more evidence that they can win races centered on the national debate over abortion. Abortion rights supporters won an Ohio ballot measure and the Democratic governor of beet-red Kentucky held onto his office by campaigning on reproductive rights and painting his opponent as extremist. A Democrat won an open seat on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court after campaigning on his pledge to uphold abortion rights. And Democrats took full control of the Virginia statehouse, blocking Republicans from being able to pass new abortion restrictions *** *** Democrats notched...

Democratic senators are expressing alarm and bewilderment over new polling data showing that President Biden is trailing former President Trump in five battleground states, creating a political headwind for the party’s Senate candidates running in the same states. Democrats are worried about what Biden’s weak poll numbers say about his electability in 2024, though they insist that barring an unexpected major development, Biden will be the party’s nominee. But they acknowledge that Biden’s age — 80 years old — is clearly a problem for many voters. “I hear immense praise for what he has done and how well he is...

It is now a "near certainty" that 2023 will be Earth's hottest year on record, scientists have said. The stark warning comes after a record-breaking October, in which global temperatures were 0.4C higher than the previous record for the month, set in 2019. "This is a huge margin," said Samantha Burgess, deputy director of the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S). She described the temperature anomaly as "very extreme". "October has seen exceptional temperature anomalies, following on from four months of global temperature records being obliterated," she said. "We can say with near certainty that 2023 will be the...

As Americans in several states went to the polls on Tuesday, a county in eastern Pennsylvania reported one of the most troubling issues any voter could worry about. A vote cast on whether to keep a sitting judge on the state’s Superior Court would be recorded for another judge on the ballot ... Officials in Northampton County, north of Philadelphia, posted a message about the problem. The problem affected judicial retention races on the court, which is one step below the state Supreme Court. On the ballot are Judges Jack Panella, a Democrat, and Victor P. Stabile, a Republican. Northampton...

San Francisco used to be one of the most beautiful places in the world. From Fisherman’s Wharf to the Golden Gate Bridge, the city had a little of everything, including a vibrant culture. Recent years have seen this elegant city descend into a post-apocalyptic hellscape with rampant crime, homelessness, drug use, and feces in the streets. A recent viral TikTok video horrifies viewers worldwide, showing how terrible the city has become. Crime has become so bad that major retailers have exited the city, with retail shops closing their doors due to an absurd policy in the city where police don’t...

Democrat Daniel McCaffery won the race for a 10-year term on Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court, defeating Republican Carolyn Carluccio, according unofficial election results. The Associated Press called the race for McCaffery shortly before 11 p.m. The Supreme Court election, one of three statewide judicial elections on this year’s ballot, was dominated by millions in third-party spending on campaign advertising that brought the campaign down to the singular issue of abortion. Democrats Jill Beck, an attorney, and Philadelphia Common Pleas Court Judge Timika Lane led the race for two Superior Court seats, according to unofficial results. Philadelphia Municipal Court Judge Matthew Wolf...

Two gas tankers crossed the Pacific, then U-turned within 10 miles of the Panama Canal, Bloomberg reported. An intense drought has lowered the canal's water level, limiting the number of ships that can pass through. That has created a massive backlog of ships waiting to cross, forcing some to seek alternate routes. Two gas tankers crossed the Pacific Ocean, but recently took a U-turn just short of the Panama Canal because of the huge traffic jam caused by low water levels, Bloomberg reported. The tankers, Pyxis Pioneer and the Sunny Bright, were within 10 miles of the canal before they...

World War III is everywhere and nowhere. Politicians and pundits predict it and warn about it as they’ve been doing for 70 years. And for all of that time we’ve been fighting World War III.Is WWIII in Iran or Ukraine? Yes in its own way. Is it in the confrontations in the South China Sea, the Hamas attack on Israel or in the riots in the streets of our own cities? Also all yes. Not to mention cartels smuggling drugs and foreign influence operations being run in D.C.*snip*“I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought,...
