A shocking video exposed American Airlines employees for carelessly flinging custom wheelchairs off an aircraft and down a baggage chute while laughing. In the video taken at Miami International Airport - an employee perched at the top of the wheelchair ramp lazily chucks the devices down the ramp and lets them bounce off the ground. Another employee waited at the bottom of the ramp - but made no effort to save the wheelchair after his coworker's reckless behavior. American Airlines released a statement after video of the incident saying they were investigated and the visuals were 'deeply concerning.' More than...

cart vendor in New York City several times since the Oct. 7 attacks on Israel by Hamas, the New York Post reported. The video, posted on X, shows former White House security advisor Stuart Seldowitz harassing the vendor, who did not speak English, according to the New York Post. Seldowitz called the unidentified man a “terrorist” and suggested that he was a rapist. “If we killed 4,000 Palestinian kids, it wasn’t enough,” Seldowitz said. “It wasn’t enough.” Seldowitz served as a deputy director and senior official in the U.S. State Department’s Office of Israel and Palestinian Affairs in the early...

The car explosion at Niagara Falls yesterday has conclusively been ruled not an act of terrorism by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Spencer wrote how a car explosion at the Rainbow Bridge border crossing triggered reports of a possible terror attack. There were also rumors that the vehicle was packed with explosives. New camera footage cast doubt on the terrorism angle, with the FBI describing the situation as “fluid” initially. The Port of Buffalo, NY has resumed operations at the Peace Bridge, Whirlpool Bridge and Lewiston Bridge border crossings. https://t.co/9twuEbrPsZ— CBP Buffalo (@CBPBuffalo) November 22, 2023When the terrorism narrative began...

Pro-Palestine protesters disrupted the beloved Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday by gluing their hands to the middle of 6th Avenue. Several protesters — wearing white jumpsuits covered in fake blood — glued their hands to the ground just before 11 a.m. in the middle of the parade’s path, prompting NYPD officers to divert balloons and the rest of the balloons and floats heading to Macy’s flagship store in Herald Square. Demonstrators were also seen in the middle of the parade carrying a banner that read, “Genocide then. Genocide Now.” It came after a poster, using a photo of model...

Biden’s team is bragging about how “they” are making Thanksgiving more affordable! But remember, every little thing Biden says is gibberish. Or an outright lie. Even other Democrats are taking Sting and The Police’s advice of not standing too close to Biden. Yes, prices of turkey (that we eat) and gasoline (used to drive to family/friends) have declined a little recently. BUT turkey prices are still up by 235% since Biden was sworn in as President. And gasoline prices are still up 47%. One of Biden’s “economists” came out and said gasoline is now lower than it was in 2020....

Former President Donald Trump leads President Joe Biden by seven points in a new poll showing the Republican candidate defeating the Democrat incumbent if they go head-to-head in 2024. The latest Messenger/Harris poll conducted by HarrisX, released on Monday, has Trump with 47% support among those surveyed, versus 40% for Biden and 13% undecided. Additionally, when respondents were asked to choose between Trump, Biden, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. or Cornel West, Trump received 40% support, Biden 33%, Kennedy 14% and West 2%.Although besting Biden in the polling, the report also found that 55% of voters do not want Trump to...

While the 2024 presidential election is still a year away, the Republican primaries are almost upon us. The Iowa caucuses are on January 15, and the following Tuesday, New Hampshire will hold its first-in-the-nation primary. That's not much time for former governor and UN ambassador Nike Haley to make up 50 points or more in the polls. Obviously, that's not going to happen. And realistically, Haley's chances depend on limiting Trump's victories in the early primary states and then winning some later contests in South Carolina and Michigan in late February. “Nikki Haley is certainly locking up a lot of...

Michael Voris has been investigating the rampant theft and homosexuality going on all over the nation, but particularly in the New York diocese. He has done some investigative pieces on out of control priest and homosexual prostitution being paid for out of Church donations. We call the homosexual heretics in the Catholic Church the “lavender mafia.” The Lavender Mafia decided it had enough of Michael Voris and his meddling in their affairs. They begin to dig into his background and were going to (maybe they still will) quietly leak his past sins to the progressive mainstream media to discredit him...

Ultimately, I blame Joe Biden for these kinds of things happening. That, of course, means that I am blaming Barack Obama by extension. I've been rather consistent with my blame assignment since January 2009. Late '70s and early '80s pop chart fixtures Daryl Hall and John Oates will not be spending the holidays with each other. The two are having a bit of a spat and it's getting testy in a legal way. Variety: Hall & Oates are embroiled in a confidential legal battle that has led to Daryl Hall getting a restraining order against his former music partner John...

Mayor Adams has been accused of sexually assaulting a former colleague in 1993 in a lawsuit seeking at least $5 million filed just before the deadline for the Adult Survivors Act, The Post learned Thursday. The accuser, whom The Post is not identifying because of the nature of the allegation, named the former cop as a defendant along with the NYPD’s transit bureau and Guardian Association in a lawsuit filed late Wednesday. “Plaintiff was sexually assaulted by Defendant Eric Adams in New York, New York in 1993 while they both worked for the City of New York,” claims the 3-page...

Mayor Eric Adams has announced budget cuts to pay for the “migrant crisis.” This includes slashing Gotham’s police force. In addition, the city has announced that it will close public libraries on weekends and cut almost $550 million from its Education Department.

For the first time since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, a temporary ceasefire has been announced, and the details confirm everything we knew or suspected about the contradictory cultures of the Israelis and the so-called “Palestinians.” It has been reported that the deal was brokered by Qatar. Not a quite a client state of Iran, Qatar is nevertheless one of Iran’s few friends and is often therefore not on speaking terms with its other muslim neighbors. When we refer to Hamas as a client terror group of Iran, they like to protest that they’re really an independent group,...

[Catholic Caucus] St. Louis Archdiocese Closes Thriving Traditional Latin Mass ParishIt has been months since more than a dozen parishes in the St. Louis Archdiocese submitted appeals to the Vatican in the hopes of keeping their doors open, and now Rome has agreed to hear the appeal of two parishes: St. Elizabeth Mother of John the Baptist Parish and Sts. Philip and James Parish.Back in May, St. Louis Archbishop Mitchell Rozanski announced that 178 individual parishes are being consolidated into 134. The archdiocese is also preparing to assess the future of nearly one-third of its elementary grade schools. The archdiocese...

I do not like Pope Francis. While he’s been staunch on abortion, when it comes to many other things, he’s worked hard to have the Church Eternal bend to the ideas of leftism. This isn’t surprising given that he’s a product of the communist Liberation Theology movement that swept the Latin American church when he worked there, but the fact that it’s not surprising doesn’t mean we should like it. Most recently, Francis has seemingly been trying to normalize so-called transgenderism. His latest push in that direction occurred when he invited a busload of 44 so-called transgender people to the...

Some leftists honestly acknowledge that a fetus is a human being but argue that the mother’s needs trump that baby’s life. Most, though, insist that the “miracle of birth” is just that—a miraculous moment when an inanimate, insensate lump of cells that has value only if the mother wants it magically converts into a human being, complete with rights. Science, however, again reveals that the real magic happens in the womb. This time, the magic is that babies are already learning language before they’re born. I’ve always known about the connection between a verbal mother and a child who learns...

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 Nation is honoring this year’s Thanksgiving by featuring a debate over whether America should keep celebrating the national holiday or not. One side is claiming it is “steeped in colonialism, violence, and misrepresentation” and needs to be “decolonized,” while the other goes further, describing Thanksgiving as a “lie” that should be completely abolished and replaced with a “Truthsgiving,” where Americans can “give thanks by… giving land back.”

It was only three years ago when Governor Gavin Newsom defied his own idiotic COVID edicts as he partied at the French Laundry restaurant in Napa, one of the few restaurants he failed to force out of business. Shortly after the governor’s hypocritical idiocy, he issued a stay-home order for Thanksgiving 2020. Gov. Newsom claimed to be following science when he and his Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly issued tyrannical orders to the 40 million residents of California for Thanksgiving to stay home, no singing, no shouting, no music, no parties, eat outside and keep a mask...

Former U.S. President Donald Trump will visit Buenos Aires to meet with Argentine President-elect Javier Milei, the latter's press office said in a statement on Thursday following a call between them. Argentine libertarian Milei won the presidential run-off with some 56% of the vote, well ahead of Peronist Economy Minister Sergio Massa's 44%. Milei, who takes office on Dec. 10, is pledging economic shock therapy, with measures including shutting the central bank, ditching the peso and slashing spending. Trump's office did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

The self-described "gay furry hackers" of SiegedSec are back: this time boasting they've broken into America's biggest nuclear power lab's computer systems and stolen records on thousands of employees. Some of that data has already been leaked, it appears. SiegedSec, which also claimed to have breached NATO's IT security on two occasions this year, said it has now hit Idaho National laboratory (INL), which is run by the US Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy. Employee Social Security numbers, physical addresses, and bank account data are among the information said to have been pinched. The lab has at least...
