I've used FIREFOX with almost no problems for 5 or 6 years, but a month ago, I started getting annoying glitches, so I switched to EDGE.It's not much different, but I had to input all my task bar data individually AND all my short cut hyperlinks in the search mode.I have always cleared my cache and history before cleaning (defrag) with GLARY UTILITIES, again with no problems.A week ago I noticed I was booting up with my task bar empty except for the factory settings.I switched back to FIREFOX and it still glitches.Where do I look to see what is...

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky is warning Ukrainians to prepare for another winter of war as Russia ramps up its attacks in recent weeks. “We are almost halfway through November, and we must be prepared for the possibility that the enemy may increase the number of drone or missile strikes against our infrastructure,” Zelensky said in a Sunday video address. “Russia is preparing for winter. And in Ukraine, all our attention should be focused on defense, on response to terrorists, on everything Ukraine can do to make it easier for our people to get through this winter and to increase the...

In November 2022, The Gateway Pundit reported that a Dallas County polling location randomly began to increment voters on the ES&S ExpressPoll pollbooks. As the polls were getting ready to close for the November 8th, 2022 election, poll workers in Dallas County noticed that their E-Pollbooks were adding hundreds of checked-in voters at a time. This took place sporadically for about 15 minutes, with all of the devices settling on inflated numbers. The Gateway Pundit received an exclusive video showing that that it happened again in Dallas County. On the Nov. 7th election, as polls were getting ready to close,...

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...

The Israel Defense Forces releases footage of the Navy’s underwater missions unit — known by its Hebrew acronym YALTAM — recovering weapons left behind by Hamas terrorists in the sea from the October 7 onslaught and other attacks since. During the October 7 attacks, members of Hamas’s naval forces tried to infiltrate into Israel via the sea. Navy forces managed to kill dozens of them, largely foiling the seaborne attack. There have been other attempts by the terror group to send divers to infiltrate into Israel in recent weeks. YALTAM scuba forces scanned the seabed in recent days, finding firearms,...

The Talking Heads at The Federal Reserve keep yammering about persistant inflation (which Yellen kept saying was transitory) and whether or not Fed rate hikes will be necessary to get infation to 2%. Instead of muddling lectures (like by Atlanta Fed President Rafael Bostic) on Fed tightening to fight inflation, let’s address the elephant in the room (no, not Chris Christie or Hillary Clinton), but Morgan Stanley’s soft landing forecast of a Fed Funds rate cut from 5.50% today to 2.375% in 2024. This is a whopping 215 basis point cut! Currently, the spread between the 30-year conforming mortgage rate...

So what has happened to the great Ukrainian offensive, which we were led to believe would dislodge Vladimir Putin's invading armies? I suppose a surprise is still possible, but it looks as if it has stalled, just as similar big pushes did in the First World War. In fact the whole thing looks more and more like World War One, with its years of muddy, bloody stalemate, trenches, artillery bombardments-and the mass slaughter, disfigurement and maiming of thousands of young men. And in the USA, those who were once keen on this war are growing cool. America's NBC News recently...

Only 14 per cent of American voters believe they are better off financially now than when Joe Biden took office, in the latest sign that the president’s economic record could undermine his re-election prospects. [cut] In 1980, Republican Ronald Reagan famously asked voters whether they were better off than they were four years earlier, setting the stage for his landslide victory over incumbent Democrat Jimmy Carter

Now that the Disney Grooming Syndicate’s The Marvels is a bonafide box office catastrophe, we can expect the usual-usual lies about how this is all the fault of racist Trump supporters, all the fault of everything except a lousy movie with unappealing stars running around pointing at terrible CGI in a spent franchise that has worked overtime to alienate fans by taking a dump on everything they once loved about that franchise. Except. The science does not back that up. Here’s a breakdown of the suckers who went to see The Marvels this weekend…. Other diagnostics on The Marvels: 65%...

The income of a typical homebuyer in the United States surged to $107,000 from $88,000 last year, as home affordability precipitously worsened, according to an annual report from the National Association of Realtors. The 22% jump was the highest annual increase on record, and puts homeownership out of reach for many families in the United States, where the median income is about $75,000, according to the Census Bureau. Buying a home has become much harder for people as mortgage rates surged over the past two years and home prices continue to rise due to very low inventory. “The household income...

Secret Service agents assigned to defend President Biden’s granddaughter opened fire late Sunday on a group of people attempting to break into an unmarked Secret Service car in Washington, DC, officials said. “On Nov. 12 around 11:58 p.m. in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, DC, Secret Service agents encountered possibly three individuals breaking a window on a parked and unoccupied government vehicle,” the agency’s spokesman, Anthony Guglielmi, said in a statement. “During this encounter, a federal agent discharged a service weapon and it is believed no one was struck. The offenders immediately fled the scene in a red vehicle and...

[Catholic Caucus] The Francis Effect: Old St. Mary Before and After Traditionis CustodesOld St. Mary in Chinatown is a beautiful historic Church in Washington, D.C.'s Chinatown neighborhood. Built by German immigrants, it fell on hard times in the 1980s. But when it obtained an indult Latin Mass in the mid1980s, it sprang back to life. Many rediscovered the TLM-- and their Catholic faith-- at the Latin Mass at Old St. Mary. It routinely attracted 400 people to Sunday Mass, as seen below.The Traditional Latin Mass parishioners also helped finance the restoration of the Church, provided roughly two-thirds of the parish's...

NATIONAL INDIAN PUDDING DAY National Indian Pudding Day recognizes a cold-weather classic. On November 13th each year, serve up this traditional New England dessert that's sure to wow. #IndianPuddingDay In the seventeenth century, English colonists brought hasty puddingto North America, transforming it. Although they initially made the pudding with wheat, due to a shortage of grain, the colonists eventually used cornmeal. Since the colonists had learned to cultivate maize (corn) from the indigenous peoples, the crop was readily available. The colonists derived the name for Indian pudding from their name for cornmeal - Indian meal. They also replaced the water...

“I can’t believe I have to say this,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) said during the debate over the motion to censure her in Congress this week, “but Palestinian people are not disposable. We are human beings just like anyone else.”

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell recently said former President Ronald Reagan would "turn over in his grave" at the current GOP's views on helping Ukraine win its war against Russia. McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, has been a vocal supporter of Ukraine since Russia invaded the Eastern European country in February 2022. Most recently, he has shown a willingness to work with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, on President Joe Biden's request of nearly $106 billion worth of aid, which includes $61.4 billion for Ukraine and $14.3 billion for Israel to support its war with Palestinian militant...

A LITTLE GIRL BURIES HER GOLDFISH WHEN HER NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR SEES HER! SEE WHAT HAPPENS SO FUNNY !!!

A current trope from democrats today is about the threat of Donald Trump being reelected and morphing into a dictator. Hillary Clinton even went so far as to like Trump to Hitler. Hillary Clinton compares Trump to Hitler while warning he could win again: 'Hitler was duly elected' https://t.co/mhYfFRlYrD— Fox News (@FoxNews) November 10, 2023It's all pretty dismally ironic, especially as the bitchy harridan was the architect of the Russian dossier. We already have a dictator. His name is Joe Biden.Donald Trump is facing some 90 odd charges which are baldly political in nature. His trials are scheduled so that...

Democratic Rep. Colin Allred of Texas’ 32nd District, who is running for the Senate against Republican incumbent Ted Cruz in 2024, has partnered with and received donations to his congressional campaigns from a left-wing group that engages in transgender advocacy, according to media reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation. Allred, a three-term Congressman from Dallas who represents a suburb of that city, announced in May that he would challenge Republican Ted Cruz for Texas’ junior Senate seat. Throughout his political career, Allred has been closely affiliated with the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a group that has advocated on a...
