    Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro has had to defend his stance on Israel after an op-ed he penned more than three decades ago, in which he wrote of being an Israeli army volunteer and disparaged the Palestinian people, resurfaced. “Since he wrote this piece as a 20-year-old student, Gov. Shapiro has built close, meaningful, informative relationships with many Muslim-American, Arab-American, Palestinian Christian and Jewish community leaders all across Pennsylvania,” Shapiro’s spokesman Manuel Bonder told Fox News Digital in a statement. “The Governor greatly values their perspectives and the experiences he has learned from over the years – and as a result,...

    FLIP & FLOP -- the Josh Shapiro problem In addition to the HUSH MONEY (remember that phrase?) scandal in his gubernatorial office, in which Shapiro has refused to elaborate, Shapiro has another problem -- his flip-flopping on Israel. Should he become Harris's running mate, I think we now have the moniker for them. FLIP & FLOP. That's the ticket. https://nypost.com/2024/08/03/us-news/potential-harris-vp-pick-josh-shapiro-on-defense-over-israel-after-decades-old-college-essay-surfaces/

    There’s a major shroud of mystery and unanswered questions hanging over the Trump assassination attempt, with new bizarre details coming out daily. The latest bombshell involves a mysterious ATF agent who appears to have secretly gotten involved in the case but has suddenly gone dark. Senator Ron Johnson is all over this new twist. If his findings hold water, they could blow the lid off the entire plot to kill President Trump. In short, according to Senator Johnson and his inside sources, a sniper team was the first on the roof, taking pictures of the scene and the dead shooter....

    I wanted to ask if anyone had run across information about the following on the internet: 1. The SS usually has drones up. Has there been any comments about video from drones about the shooters position and the nearby water tower before the drones failed? 2. Does anyone know if the field has been completely gone over for bullets to do ballistics to compare and find out how many shots, where they hit dirt, and if they match a single weapon? This seems like standard stuff, but I haven’t seen anything. 3. The victims that were shot and bullet fragments...

    In mapping what the two main counter-sniper positions would have seen as they looked toward Crooks, it became apparent that the counter-snipers closer to Crooks probably were unable to see Crooks because a large tree was in the way.Too clever, Crooks! Or did you have help to have learned those subtleties? Hence, neither of the two northerly counter-snipers likely liquidated Crooks.The southerly countersniper position was able to see Crooks AS HE FIRED, but BECAUSE OF THE SLOPE OF THE ROOF (hmmm!), they probably didn't see him until he fired, as Crooks exposed more than his scope's lens.
  • Poll: Most Americans Say Transgenderism Is a Political Distraction

    A 77 percent majority of Americans say politicians use transgenderism to distract voters from important political fights. The poll did not say if Americans put more blame on Republican or Democratic politicians for the transgender distraction. But the poll included a second question about politicians’ greater focus on transgender claims: “Do you think this is a good thing for society, a bad thing for society, or neither a good nor bad thing for society?”
  • Massive Ukrainian drone attack on Crimea causes power outages in Sevastopol

    Kyiv says it has had some success pushing back against a renewed Russian offensive, but Ukraine's defences are in dire need of resupply. A massive Ukrainian drone attack on Crimea early Friday caused power cutoffs in the city of Sevastopol and set a refinery ablaze in southern Russia, Russian authorities said. The drone raids marked an attempt to strike back during Moscow's renewed offensive in northeastern Ukraine, which has added to the pressure on outnumbered and outgunned Ukrainian forces as they await delayed deliveries of crucial Western weapons and ammunition. Ukraine has not commented on the attack nor claimed responsibility...

    The informant accused of fabricating a story about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden taking $5 million each in bribes allegedly had high-level Russian intelligence contacts, according to newly filed court documents. In the filing, Special Counsel David Weiss reveals that after his arrest last week, Alexander Smirnov told the FBI "that officials with Russian intelligence were involved in passing a story" about Hunter Biden. Prosecutors argued in their filing Smirnov should be held pending trial, with Weiss saying that Smirnov's claims he has active contacts with "multiple foreign intelligence agencies" and had planned to leave the U.S....

    The White House says it is “alarmed” over sexually explicit AI-generated images of pop star Taylor Swift circulating on social media. “We are alarmed by the reports of the circulation of the — false images,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Friday. “While social media companies make their own independent decisions about content management, we believe they have an important role to play in enforcing their own rules to prevent the spread of misinformation and non-consensual, intimate imagery of real people,” Pierre continued.

    Several storylines related to the events of January 6 have crumbled under closer scrutiny over the past 10 months: the “fire extinguisher” murder of Officer Brian Sicknick; the notion it was an “armed” insurrection and a grand “conspiracy” concocted by right-wing militias; claims that the building sustained $30 million in damages, and so on. In the meantime, the Biden regime has attempted to cover up key aspects of that day, including the name of the officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt, which was only recently revealed. Justice Department lawyers continue to resist the release of 14,000 hours of surveillance...

    President Joe Biden on Sunday said he hoped Republicans would “keep their word” about support for Ukraine, after he signed a 45-day stopgap government funding measure that did not include the $24 billion he sought for Ukraine through the end of the year. “I hope my friends on the other side keep their word about support for Ukraine. They said they were going to support Ukraine in a separate vote. We cannot under any circumstance allow America’s support for Ukraine to be interrupted,” he said. Biden added that he hoped House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), would “keep his commitment for...

    California governor Gavin Newsom mocked Florida governor Ron DeSantis on live television for taking the “bait” in debating him while calling DeSantis a “distracted” candidate. “Why is he doing it? That’s the right question. He’s running — I think, I’m not sure after tonight — but currently he’s running for president of the United States,” Newsom said in an interview Wednesday. The California governor’s remarks come on the heels of the second GOP debate, in Simi Valley, Calif., where he said he wasn’t particularly impressed with DeSantis or the rest of the Republican presidential field. Newsom attended the event. Newsom...
  • A monumental UFO scandal is looming

    The Hill ^ | MARIK VON RENNENKAMPFF
    The decades-long saga of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) is barreling headlong toward one of two stunning conclusions. Either the U.S. government has mounted an extraordinary, decades-long coverup of UFO retrieval and reverse-engineering activities, or elements of the defense and intelligence establishment are engaging in a staggeringly brazen psychological disinformation campaign. Either possibility would have profound implications for democracy, the role of government and perhaps also humanity’s place in the cosmos. For these reasons, it is imperative that Congress and federal law enforcement agencies devote significant resources to investigating a series of remarkable UFO-related developments. Importantly, a third explanation for recent...

    I feel like we're seeing more and more alien-related stuff in the news lately and honestly it's starting to get just a little bit unsettling. VIDEO AT LINK........ Why is there such a push about UFOs recently? So all the Dale Gribbles of the world were right and we've got multiple advanced alien lifeforms that just keep crashing onto backwards little old Earth? And the U.S. government is conveniently the only one who has recovered evidence of this? And no one has any pictures or video? Cool, cool. But the dude testified under oath about it, so there's that.

  • White House National Security chief says UFOs are having an 'impact on our training ranges' and need to be treated as a 'legitimate issue'

    UFOs are already having an impact on combat training for America's fighter pilots, a top national security official has warned. 'Some of these phenomena, we know, have already had an impact on our training ranges,' according to John Kirby, the National Security Council's Coordinator for Strategic Communications under President Biden. The comments suggest a new approach from the White House, whose press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre coyly dismissed questions about the F-22 stealth raptor jets that shot down three UFOs last February by saying, 'I love E.T. the movie.' Kirby, a retired rear admiral in the US Navy, said the unanswered...
