    President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he delegated “everything” as commander-in-chief to Vice President Kamala Harris, including foreign policy and domestic policy. The acknowledgment is significant because it contradicts Harris’s talking points. Harris has tried multiple times to distance herself from the Biden-Harris record. “My approach is about new ideas, new policies that are directed at the current moment. And also, to be very honest with you, my focus is very much in what we need to do over the next ten, twenty years to catch up to the twenty first century,” Harris told Brian Taff of Philadelphia’s Action News...

Once inside, the stepson - who had his own gun - barricaded the door and the woman hid in the attached bathroom. Gavitt fired a shot through the door,...

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s domestic support is on the rise as Israel’s war against Hamas advances, according to poll numbers released on Thursday. Israel’s Channel 14 published the results of a survey conducted by Direct Polls on Thursday evening, showing that if elections were held now, Netanyahu’s Likud Party would receive 25 mandates, one of its best numbers since the October 7 massacre — the most brutal attack on Jews since the Nazi Holocaust.

    Gov. Kristi Noem has “no shot” at being Donald Trump’s running mate after revealing in a forthcoming book that she shot and killed her puppy, sources close to the 45th president tell The Post. *** “She was already unlikely to be picked as VP, but had a shot,” the person said of Noem, who has been widely projected to be on Trump’s shortlist. “After this, it’s just impossible.” Noem writes, according to the Guardian, that she executed Cricket, a 14-month-old wirehaired pointer, after determining that the pooch’s “aggressive personality” made her “untrainable” as a hunting dog. “It was not a...

    Representative Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) on Thursday refused to condemn “death to America” chants that featured prominently at a rally in the district she represents. Last week, at an anti-Israel demonstration in Dearborn, Michigan, local activist Tarek Bazzi led a crowd in chants of “death to America” and “death to Israel,” saying the Jewish state “does not deserve to exist” and celebrating former Iranian ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Fox Business reporter Hillary Vaughn approached Tlaib in the halls of the United States Capitol Complex and asked whether the Michigan congresswoman would condemn the chants. Rather than answer Vaughn’s question, Tlaib said...

Ah, we got this guy. We got this guy. Well, he’s got 91 counts against him, couple of indictments, liable for sexual assault, it’s OK. It’s OK. He’s liable for fraud, might have to pay hundreds of millions, may completely go bankrupt and lose all his homes, but we’re waiting on that....

    “If you want to help domestic violence victims, encourage them to prepare to defend themselves. Stop telling them they are not capable of handling a firearm, and scaring them with skewed statistics that only demoralizes them. Fund programs that offer training and arm the women,” Watral said. Gun control groups voice the possibility if a woman has a gun in a violent situation, it will be taken and used against her. That is a possibility. What is more probable is that she will be overpowered by a man based only on his strength. I need a tool to be my...

    [VANITY] - Recently there have been a number of posts with lots of comments about the potentiality, plausibility, probability, impact and response to a domestic terror attack, likely perpetrated by members of the R3ligion of P3ace, assisted by other well-funded state-sponsored enablers who have recently flowed across our open southern border (read CHINESE). The purpose of this post is twofold: (1) to refer you to a short, compelling, spot-on novella about a domestic terror attack and the local response. It's chilling and sadly even more plausible given recent events and national circumstances. If you have children or grandchildren in school...
