Many Freepers have already seen this "Dr." Arlene Unfiltered broad. Anyway. This is the best expose' that I've seen yet about her embarrassing statements before and after the election this week.

A senior Ukrainian official confirmed to Fox News that Elon Musk joined a Trump-Zelenskyy call on Wednesday in which President Zelenskyy congratulated the president-elect on his win. "It was a very good call. Our work continues," said the Ukrainian official to Fox News. Musk's unexpected appearance during the first official conversation between President-elect Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy may point to his influence in the upcoming Trump administration. "I had an excellent call with President Trump and congratulated him on his historic landslide victory — his tremendous campaign made this result possible," Zelenskyy posted on X.

LuNTZ: THERE ABSOLUTELY IS MORE. AND THIS IS SIGNIFICANT. BECAUSE IN THE END THEY'RE TRYING UNDERCUT TRUMP'S VICTORY, WHICH IS SIGNIFICANT. IT WASN'T A MANDATE, BECAUSE IT STILL ONLY 3 OR 4% VICTORY, BUT IT WAS SIGNIFICANT. IT WAS MEANINGFUL AND MEASURABLE. LuNTZ: FIRST, SHE COULD HAVE TAUGHT PEOPLE EXACTLY WHAT SHE WANTED TOOT IN THE FIRST HOUR, THE FIRST DAY, THE FIRST WEEK, THE FIRST MONTH...

President-elect Donald Trump’s election victory, combined with the Republican takeover of the Senate, may extend conservative control of the Supreme Court for two more decades. For much of the last four years, progressives focused on proposals to expand the court to more than nine justices or to impose limited terms on the current justices. These ideas depended on Democrats winning sweeping power in the White House and the Senate. Instead, Republicans will be in charge and positioned to preserve the conservative grip on the high court long after Trump leaves Washington. The two oldest justices are also the bench’s most...

New York City can't use an unconstitutional, two-century-old “anti-pauper” law to block the state of Texas from offering migrants free bus rides to the city from the southern border, a state judge has ruled. The court on Thursday dismissed a lawsuit brought by Mayor Eric Adams in January against charter bus companies contracted by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. It sought to bar them from knowingly dropping off “needy persons,” citing an 1817 state law that criminalized bringing an indigent person into the state “for the purpose of making him a public charge.” Justice Mary Rosado said in a sternly worded...

Dispelling The Confusion Concerning The 2,300 Days. Those who are in opposition to the doctrine that the 2,300 days find their terminus in the end of the world, are, among themselves, at strong variance over when the days do, supposedly, end, just as they are over the truth of a multitude of other doctrines. Fully evident therefore is the fact that none of them have the truth on the subject. And yet in spite of this fact, they fail to see that the spirit which has led them into their present state of schism, doctrinal difference, strife, and confusion, unparalleled...

More very disturbing meltdowns. Gown adults running around like Chicken Little.

According to OptaSTATS, there have been two instances in NFL history where a quarterback had 30 passing completions, 300 passing yards, four touchdown passes, multiple 40-yard touchdown passes and no more than one interception, and still lost the game. Those two instances were both Burrow vs. the Ravens this year.

In an impassioned announcement made in protest of President-Elect Donald Trump's victory Tuesday night, celebrity Rosie O'Donnell vowed to continue her sex strike that has already reached 38 years. O'Donnell made the vow in a video released on social media, promising to carry on her abstinence well past 40 years and into a fifth decade in an effort to show her outrage at Trump's re-election. "I've been protesting Trump's presidency since the late 1980s," O'Donnell said during the video. "All of these liberal women are coming out now and saying they're going on sex strikes to protest Trump's election? Join...

There are no federal laws that require private employers to provide paid sick leave, but 15 states and Washington, D.C., currently have laws mandating private employers provide paid sick leave to eligible employees. According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 21 percent of private industry workers in the U.S. did not have access to paid sick leave. Voters in Alaska, Missouri and Nebraska voted in favor of passing ballot measures entitling workers to paid sick leave.

The ballot issues amend the state constitutions, barring foreign nationals from voting in state and local elections. As divided as America may be, this election showed there’s one thing most Americans agree on: Only U.S. citizens should vote in U.S. elections. Voters this week in eight states — Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Wisconsin — overwhelmingly approved constitutional amendment ballot questions seeking to ensure noncitizens cannot vote in state and local elections. Foreign nationals are already barred from voting in federal elections. “We’re so often told about how divided we are in the United States,...

Political strategist David Axelrod argued Thursday that Democrats are becoming a “smarty-pants, suburban, college-educated party” that could keep losing electorally if it does not change course. “You can’t approach working people like missionaries and say, ‘We’re here to help you become more like us.’ There’s a kind of unspoken disdain, unintended disdain in that,” Axelrod, a CNN contributor, said in an interview with the outlet. The longtime Democratic strategist praised President Biden for doing some “good things for working people,” but stated that the party as a whole “has increasingly become a smarty-pants, suburban, college-educated party, and it lends itself...

What a great (and long) video - but well worth watching. There is your JOY! The left is never joyous unless they have their boot on someone's throat.

As the Democratic Party handles the fallout from their devastating election defeat this week, some have come up with an unlikely plan to oust liberal Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor. In just under two months, Republicans will control the U.S. Senate with a likely majority of at least 53 seats. Once Trump takes office, they will have free reign to start appointing conservative judicial nominees, shaping federal courts for generations to come. According to Politico’s Playbook, Democratic leaders are “agonizing” over whether to try and force Sotomayor out of the door before Trump takes office in January. The 70-year-old justice is...

For Plaintiffs to suggest that the NYVRA is not a race-based (or national origin-based) statute is simply to deny the obvious,’ the judge stated.. The New York State Supreme Court in Orange County overturned the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act, a law Democrats were leveraging to take control of local governments and further a pro-illegal-immigration agenda. The legislation, which was signed into law in 2022, would in part force municipalities to obtain pre-clearance before making changes to how they conduct their voting systems. According to Spectrum News 1, “local governments or school districts with a record of discrimination in...

Just over 54 percent of Colorado voters approved on Tuesday Proposition KK, which contains an excise tax on the in-state sale of guns and ammunition. CBS News reported that roughly 1.3 million Colorado voters supported the proposition, while 1.1 million opposed it. The approved tax is 6.5 percent, which means the price of $400 firearm will rise $26 and the price of a $1,000 firearm will increase by $65 because of the new tax.

No matter how bad you think Covid policies were, they were intended to be worse. Consider the vaccine passports alone. Six cities were locked down to include only the vaccinated in public indoor places. They were New York City, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. The plan was to enforce this with a vaccine passport. It broke. Once the news leaked that the shot didn’t stop infection or transmission, the planners lost public support and the scheme collapsed. It was undoubtedly planned to be permanent and nationwide if not worldwide. Instead, the scheme had to be dialed back....

Police reportedly could not stop laughing at the slapstick security footageDetroit is a world-class city with some F-tier criminals. Several of these criminals went to great lengths this week to steal a single catalytic converter from a used car lot and gained themselves a ton of embarrassment in the process. It took three thieves to pull of this grand caper at Govanni Used Cars on Thursday. One to drive the getaway vehicle into a pole, one to use a sawzall to cut through the gate lock and snag a single catalytic converter and another to fall out of said getaway...

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) acknowledged his confusion that the American people did not accept his and Kamala Harris’s vision for America, after a historic Election Day shellacking in which Donald Trump won the electoral college and the popular vote. In a post-election loss speech Walz touted as offering a plan for “our path forward,” the governor called to bring down the temperature while taking multiple shots at Trump. “It’s hard to understand why so many of our fellow citizens, people that we have fought so long and hard for, wound up choosing the other path,” Walz pondered aloud. “It’s hard...

The House of Representatives has set a Nov. 13, 2024, date for the next hearing on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), aka UFOs, with a witness list that includes a former Navy admiral. The hearing follows one held in the summer of 2023 after whistleblower David Grusch alleged the Pentagon has been operating a secret UFO retrieval program.
