  • SHERMAN’S CAMPAIGN: The Rebel Papers Preserving a Dismal Silence; They Declare the News Hopeful, but Decline to Print It (11/29/1864)

    11/29/2024 6:53:56 AM PST · by Homer_J_Simpson · 3 replies
    Special Dispatch to the New-York Times. WASHINGTON, Monday, Nov. 28. The extracts from the Southern papers sent you give the latest intelligence from SHERMAN. It is obvious that the rebels have given up all hope of being able to prevent SHERMAN from reaching an outlet on the seaboard. They will confine their efforts to making his expedition as fruitless as they can. Military men here feel the utmost confidence in regard to the ultimate results of the Georgia campaign, and whatever fears have hitherto been entertained respecting its success, are now completely dismissed. REBEL REPORTS. From Richmond Papers of Saturday....

    California Gov. Gavin Newsom and “First Partner” Jennifer Siebel Newsom are being mocked for a tone-deaf Thanksgiving message that name-checked indigenous Californians and illegal aliens but largely ignored everyone else. “Thanksgiving is an opportunity to especially celebrate the native peoples of this lad and reflect on their perseverance and endurance,” Mrs. Nesom said. “We’re grateful for all that you do and all that you are,” the governor chimed in.

Then answered Peter, 47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost...

    Democrats are licking their wounds after Vice President Harris’s defeat to President-elect Trump, but already are looking toward who might lead their party in a 2028 presidential contest. It’s a fight that looks wide open. The certainty is that Trump himself will not be on the ballot, since the Constitution limits him to two terms. Vice President-elect JD Vance is the likely GOP front-runner as the party’s next presidential nominee.

    AMAC Newsline ^ | 26 Nov, 2024 | Outside Contributor - Madeline Armstrong
    While rising crime has numerous impacts on Arizona, one consequence that is not always front of mind is the cost associated with crime. According to a newly released report from the Common Sense Institute and the Arizona Chamber Foundation, the cost of crime in Arizona reached $20.6 billion in 2022 alone. “This equals an average cost per Arizonan of $2,796, or for the median household, roughly $7,200 – nearly 10% of annual household income,” reads the report. “Most of these costs (87%) are due to the 167,853 violent crimes committed in 2022. The cost of crime in 2022 was 25%...
  • Several Oreshnik missiles equivalent to nuclear strike, do not harm environment — Putin

    TASS ^ | 11/28/24 | Putin
    ASTANA, November 28. /TASS/. The simultaneous use of several Oreshnik missiles is comparable in strength to a nuclear strike, but it does not contaminate the environment, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, answering journalists' questions. "If you use several such systems in one strike at once - two, three, or four systems - it will be comparable in strength to a nuclear strike. But it is not nuclear because it is a) highly accurate and b) it is not equipped with a nuclear explosive device. It does not contaminate the environment. But it will be comparable in strength," Putin said.

    Donald Trump may have overwhelmingly won reelection, but according to Google’s content police, saying anything nice about him is “demonstrably false” and a threat to the “democratic process.” Do you think we’re exaggerating? We received notice the other day that our article “Unburdened By What Has Been, Trump Is Poised To Deliver Bigly” contained, according to Google, “unreliable and harmful claims.” What falls into this category? Content that: - makes claims that are demonstrably false and could significantly undermine participation or trust in an electoral or democratic process. - promotes harmful health claims, or relates to a current, major health...

    French President Emmanuel Macron inspected the newly renovated Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris today, and declared: ‘She’s Back!’. Five years after a devastating fire threatened to destroy the ancient place of worship, it is set to reopen to the public next week. Hailing a restoration costing at least £600million on Friday, Mr Macron walked around Notre Dame with his wife, Brigitte Macron, and said ‘The nightmare is over.’

    Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus appeared to blame quarterback Caleb Williams for how the dying moments of the team's loss to Detroit Lions unfolded, despite refusing to call a timeout that could have saved the game. The Bears had the ball in Lions territory late in the game with a chance to drive for a game-tying field goal or go-ahead touchdown, but they blew the opportunity before losing 23-20 - their sixth straight loss.

    American Greatness ^ | 27 Nov, 2024 | Eric Lendrum
    Formula 1 racing has become the latest major American company to buckle to pressure from far-left activists and accept new diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) standards. According to the Washington Free Beacon, the new rules will impact Formula 1, the FIA, and all ten F1 teams. F1’s DEI charter was co-written by the Royal Academy of Engineering, which first provided a report on recommended DEI standards for the Hamilton Commission in 2021. “As a sport that prides itself on its unrelenting high performance, Formula 1 recognizes the importance that diversity plays in introducing new perspectives and ideas, and in driving...

  • ‘Dangerously cold’ arctic outbreak impacts millions as wind chills to drop well below zero

    FOX Weather via NY Post ^ | 11/29/24 | Emilee Speck
    The first arctic outbreak of the season is allowing temperatures to plunge across the eastern half of the country, creating “dangerously cold” wind chills of 15-30 degrees below zero in the northern Plains and Upper Midwest. As the Thanksgiving Day winter storm exits the Northeast, it is pulling in arctic air from Canada and allowing the cold air to travel as far away as the Southeast. On Black Friday, well over 200 million Americans are expected to experience below-average temperatures. According to NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center, wind chills should fall well below zero across the northern Plains and Upper Midwest....
  • The Feminization of American Politics

    American Thinker ^ | 29 Nov, 2024 | Robert Weissberg
    This sex-based divide may endure for upcoming elections, but the arithmetic for a feminist-brand party will not ensure victory regardless of the Democrat’s aggressive pro-women agenda. The term “permanent campaign” emerged in 1976 and has come to mean candidates beginning their next campaign immediately after election day. Think Gavin Newsom, who is already campaigning for the 2028 presidency. Trump’s 2024 victory, however, suggests a new political concept: never-ending public grief over having lost, a behavior akin to mass hysteria. Universities abound with traumatized Harris supporters seeking mental health counseling to overcome their misery. One “bereaved” student even desperately announced on...

    “Making the most of your time, because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:16). Time will tell whether you’re unselfish or selfish. In 1842 Robert Murray M’Cheyne, pastor of St. Peter’s Church in Dundee, Scotland, wrote a pastoral letter to an individual who was an unbeliever. The following is an excerpt from his letter: I was reading this morning (Luke ii. 29), what old Simeon said when he got the child Jesus into his arms: “Now lettest Thou Thy servant depart in peace, according to Thy word: for mine eyes have seen Thy salvation.” If you get a firm hold of...
