Congressman Ilhan Omar (D-Minn) called for the US to defund Israel due to what she defined as “ethnic cleansing.” On Friday, Omar tweeted a reaction to the news that Israel had demolished illegally built structures in Khirbet Humsah, also known as Humsah Al Bqai’a, located in Samaria in the Jordan Valley. “This a grave crime—in direct violation of international law,” Omar wrote. “If they used any US equipment it also violates US law. An entire community is now homeless and will likely experience lifelong trauma. The United States of America should not be bankrolling ethnic cleansing. Anywhere.”

Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) said Tuesday that his Republican colleagues have privately asked him to congratulate President-elect Joe Biden on his election win because they can’t do so publicly as President Trump contests the results. Coons said on CNN’s “New Day” that it’s "past time for Republican leaders to stand up and say, 'We should accept the results of this election.’ ” A limited number of Republicans, including Sens. Mitt Romney (Utah) and Susan Collins (Maine), have acknowledged Biden as the winner of the 2020 election. "They call me to say, you know, 'Congratulations, please convey my well wishes to...

Israeli Settlements Minister Tzachi Hanegbi warns that a Biden presidency could ignite war in the Middle East, while Egypt fears Biden would aid the resurgence of Islamists in the region. Hanegbi pointed out that Biden has indicated he will resurrect America’s nuclear agreement with Iran which was cancelled by the Trump administration. For Israel, this would represent an existential threat to national security and drastically increase the chances of war with Tehran. “If Biden stays with that policy, there will, in the end, be a violent confrontation between Israel and Iran,” said Hanegbi. Meanwhile, other Middle Eastern countries such as...

Are we having buyer’s remorse about Joe Biden? For one former Clinton adviser, that appears to be the case. Dr. Naomi Wolf, who helped the Clinton-Gore ticket improve their outreach to female voters in the 1990s, isn’t really happy about the whole lockdown stuff regarding COVID. Today, Joe Biden announced his coronavirus advisory board. And uh, let’s just say the intention of this panel included the possibility of a lockdown... The U.S. can expect increased Covid-19 testing, a national mask policy and the possibility of nationwide lockdowns ... “If I’d known Biden was open to ‘lockdowns’ as he now states,...

For those of you that might have tuned in and did not see Fox News' "Justice" with Judge Jeanine Pirro on Saturday night, sources told Newsmax the show was suspended over a spat on the network's coverage of President Donald Trump. Sources close to the network tell Newsmax, because she made a very staunch defense of President Trump and wanted to expose the vote fraud that took place in the election, Fox News decided not to air her show. It had extended coverage of Democrat Joe Biden's acceptance speech of a contested election. The sources gave no inclination of whether...

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said that he would investigate “all credible allegations of voting irregularities and misconduct” after receiving a sworn affidavit from a Pennsylvania postal worker alleging officials devised a plan to backdate mail ballots. The senator’s remarks came less than two hours after The Associated Press and other news outlets officially projected Joe Biden and Kamala Harris the winners in the race for White House. President Trump has since refused to concede, repeating his claims without evidence that there have been several cases of voter fraud as part of a Democratic effort to steal the...

Presumptive President-elect Joseph R. Biden said Saturday evening that he plans to be a president for all Americans and that he’ll hit the ground running to try to “heal” the country as he claimed a mandate from the American people to govern cooperatively and reach across the aisle. Mr. Biden spoke after multiple news outlets declared him the winner of the 2020 presidential election late Saturday morning, four days after Election Day on Tuesday. “The people of the nation have spoken. They’ve delivered us a clear victory,” Mr. Biden said. “I am humbled by the trust and confidence you placed...

Joe Biden, presumed the winner of the presidential election according to mainstream media networks, issued a call for “unity” Saturday evening after a bruising campaign in which he had compared President Donald Trump to Nazis, including Adolf Hitler. Biden, who called his campaign a “battle for the soul of our nation,” launched his campaign in April 29 with the false claim that Trump had referred to neo-Nazis as “very fine people.” (Trump in fact said that they should be “condemned totally.”) When confronted with that fact, Biden continued to insist on his version of events, despite evidence to the contrary....

Fox News commentator Mark Levin said he will not unite around apparent winner Joe Biden if he's officially elected. The way Democrats treated President Trump during his first term warrants a conservative resistance to Biden should he obtain the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency, he said. "There's more evidence of voter fraud than there was ever evidence of Russian collusion. So those who keep saying, 'Let's see the evidence,' where the hell were you the last four years? You were nowhere," Levin told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Friday, adding that Democrats would "fix" the election...

"Andrew Bates, a spokesperson for former Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign, said Friday that the U.S. government was capable of escorting “trespassers out of the White House” if Trump did not concede the election. Bates, who directs rapid response for the campaign, was reacting to unconfirmed media reports that the president would not concede the election even if he had lost."

My favorite definition of a cynic: a premature realist. Today we are all cynics or damn well should be. Show me an American who trusts politicians, polls, news organizations and social media bigs who fancy themselves our new masters and I’ll show you a fool. Regarding the forecasts of how the election would go, Casey Stengel’s line about the hapless 1962 Mets fits the moment: “Can’t anybody here play this game?” As we stand on the smoking ruins of shattered predictions, the answer is no, a thousand times no. The usual suspects are bumblers — and that’s being kind because...

A coalition of activists around the country has shifted gears after polls closed on Election Day to take to the streets to ensure every vote is counted in the presidential election that’s included a record number of mail-in ballots amid the coronavirus pandemic. The goal so far is to show a massive presence in the streets should President Trump fail to concede or challenge the election results in the event of a victory for Democratic candidate Joe Biden. Various groups led by Black Lives Matter and Shutdown DC have conducted training sessions for months leading up to this moment, and...

DOVER, Del. (SBG) — Delaware has elected the United States’ first openly transgender state senator. Democrat Sarah McBride was elected to serve the state’s First Senate District, making her the highest-ranking transgender politician in the country. “I hope tonight shows an LGBTQ kid that our democracy is big enough for them, too,” McBride said in a tweet. “As Delaware continues to face the Covid crisis, it’s time to get to work to invest in the policies that will make a difference for working families.”

Greetings from the Biden campaign's election night headquarters in the main parking lot of the Chase Center on the Riverfront, in Wilmington, Delaware! This parking lot will serve as the venue for the campaign’s election night drive-in car rally, although at the moment it remains empty of supporters as workers put the finishing touches on the construction of the platform and podium where Biden will speak later. It’s a currently a crisp 64 degrees here, with grey skies. While reporters are gradually streaming into the media area on the perimeter of the lot, the only sounds to be heard presently...

Mayor de Blasio is hoping a federal stimulus package akin to FDR’s New Deal will help curtail crime in the Big Apple, he said Monday. Speaking to NY1’s Errol Louis, Hizzoner said if Joe Biden is elected president, New Yorkers should expect a stimulus deal that will help get the city “back on its feet” and combat a spike in murders, shootings and burglaries. “If Joe Biden’s elected president, the most likely time for a major stimulus is February, and I’m thinking along the lines of the New Deal, and he’s obviously talking about emulating FDR,” the mayor said. “The...

Using their expertise in past coups, professionals who assisted in overthrowing governments globally have developed thorough resources and a radical guide to instruct far-left groups — who have been training for months — in toppling a government. Under the guise of preventing a coup, left wing groups have been planning their own — if things don’t go as they desire on Election Day.

Because the American electorate is rather evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats, turnout becomes the key to electoral success in November. While a lot can happen in nine months, there are five factors that I see discouraging Democrat turnout and helping the GOP. 1. The Biden family scandals Thanks to Adam Schiff, Jerry Nadler and the impeachment lynch mob, the lid has been blown off the Biden family’s practice of trading on the patriarch’s position to enrich themselves. Biden’s campaign is imploding, so he won’t be on the ballot. But the investigations of Hunter and Burisma are heating up and...

President Donald Trump’s campaign said Monday that, according to data shared by former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign, the president was within one state of winning the election. On a conference call with reporters, Director of Battleground Strategy Nick Trainer referred to a Zoom call published by Biden’s campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon discussing the current state of the race ahead of Election Day.

It’s not just your imagination: The Karens prefer Joe Biden. According to an extremely unscientific polling analysis, randomly-selected American women with the first name “Karen” prefer Democratic nominee Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. to President Donald J. Trump. In fact, people with the name “Karen” were the most likely to back Biden, compared to the 19 other common names in New York Times/Sienna College polls. The New York Times has surveyed more than 17,000 likely voters in battleground states since September, and the paper published the results of those polls broken down by the ten most common first names for men...

Hunter Biden became so addicted to illicit sexual thrills that he once spent $11,400 on a single night of debauchery at a New York strip club and shelled out more than $21,000 to one adult 'live cam' porn website. The scale of the descent of Joe Biden's son into a morass of drugs, drink and sleaze – leaving him open to possible blackmail attempts – is laid bare in hundreds of documents and photographs on his abandoned laptop. The 50-year-old spent a fortune on escorts and ran up massive hotel bills, often paying for multiple rooms in a single night....
