This is a humorous (but dark) takeoff on the loony left's infatuation with Hamas and their hatred of Jews which makes Hitler & Co. look like nothing more than a schoolyard bully.

Texas State Sen. John Whitmire and U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee are advancing to a runoff election for Houston mayor since neither cleared the 50% threshold. Both stood out in a crowded field for their high levels of name recognition, decades of public service, and in Whitmire's case, a prodigious campaign war chest that enabled him to blanket the airwaves with commercials. Jackson Lee is widely considered the more progressive of the two leading candidates.

He is preparing for an investiture vote which is expected to see him form a new government and avoid a repeat election. That can only happen if he can secure the parliamentary support of Catalan separatists. The Socialists were runners-up in July's general election, behind the conservative People's Party (PP). However, PP leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo failed to form a government in an investiture vote in September, receiving only the support of the far-right Vox out of the main parties. It is now Mr Sánchez's turn and he is close to securing enough parliamentary support to form a new administration...

Aerodynamics play a pivotal role in the automotive industry, with its importance becoming even more pronounced in the era of electric vehicles. Efficient aerodynamics are crucial for several reasons, and first and foremost, they impact a vehicle's energy efficiency, which is paramount for EVs. Put simply, streamlined design reduces drag, allowing battery-powered cars to overcome resistance more easily and travel further on a single charge. This leads us to the machine you see depicted here. It is Chery’s latest electric concept, which apparently has a drag coefficient of 0.168. The Aero prototype has been developed using AI simulations and Chery...

KEY POINTS India’s reliance on coal will not wear off in the next two decades as it struggles to find other ways to cool homes down and keep the lights on. Fossil fuels, mainly coal, continue to make up 75% of India’s power supply, making it “the only fuel that India has in relative abundance,” said Ember’s Neshwin Rodrigues. As for now, the country’s solar, wind and hydro energy capabilities are still unreliable as they are dependent on the climate, according to analysts that spoke to CNBC. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There’s little doubt that India has made progress in its transition to...

An Uber driver covered more than 300 miles a day six days a week in his 2019 Model 3 SR+, making two Supercharging stops per day. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There's probably no better way to convince people that electric vehicles are as good as internal combustion cars for every use case scenario than having EVs undergo tough trials, and ride-hailing vehicles have it tougher than most. So can a Tesla Model 3 handle that kind of punishment long-term? Yes and no, according to Dobson, a Model 3 owner who has used his car for Uber duty for almost a year and a...

The left-wing "activist" group ANSWER picks sides in conflicts around the world, protesting the actions of the western side, and justifying the actions of all the others. The large protest against Israel and in support of the Hamas terrorists on November 4 in Washington, D.C. was primarily organized by the ANSWER Coalition (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism). It has called for a wave of disruption across the country on November 9 to “Shut It Down for Palestine.” This group was founded just three days after the September 11, 2001 Al-Qaeda terrorist attack on New York City and...

The first victim was discovered Monday at around 10:30 a.m. in Valencia. A little more than two hours later, at 12:53 p.m., LASD detectives responded to another death in Lancaster and a third at 5:40 p.m. in Stevenson Ranch.

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...
