    MIGA! Make impeachment great again! Like any other Democratic policy initiative these days, it is going to be a complete fiasco. I’ll bet the website—Impeachment.gov—works about as well as the launch of the Obamacare websites in 2013. I’m sure incoming Senate Majority Leader Schumer will be delighted to get the article of impeachment sent over from the House. And if Speaker Pelosi doesn’t send it, Republican Senators should demand every day in the Senate that it be sent over—otherwise this is just a stunt. What’s that you say? Oh, right.

    An exceptional atmospheric river rated Category 5 (AR 5) is soaking the Pacific Northwest, bringing flooding rain and strong winds in parts of coastal Oregon and Washington, where up to 8 600 customers were left without power on Tuesday, January 12, 2021. Threats of flooding, mudslides, and avalanches continue into Wednesday morning, January 13, before the moisture flow heads offshore and dissipates. In Oregon, Portland General Electric reported more than 5 000 customers lost electricity on Tuesday night, while 3 600 were without power in Multnomah County during the severe weather's onslaught. The atmospheric river was classified as Category 5...

    The left has long had a tendency to push propaganda over truth, but the Trump years have seen a dramatic increase in willfully repeated falsehoods to push the Democratic Media Complex’s favored “narratives” over obvious truths everyone can see with their own two eyes. First there was the Russian collusion hoax, a self-serving fiction democrats concocted both to jam Trump at the line of scrimmage and give them an excuse for explaining how they managed to lose an election everyone said they had in the bag. There followed more lies to support the initial lie, then the impeachment farce that...

    Illinois Review ^ | January 13, 2021 A.D. | John F Di Leo
    On January 13, 1776, General Washington sat down to write a letter to the Massachusetts state legislature, reporting how dire their situation was. Such letters were unfortunately to become the norm throughout America’s long War of Independence; the General felt that the civilian legislature needed to be kept apprised of the state of the fight, and in particular, they needed to know how much more material support the troops required from their government. In January of 1776, the Continental Army had been conducting the Siege of Boston for eight months. That’s eight months of sitting, encamped outside the most important...

    (Vanity question) What exactly is the truth about POTUS' finances? Deutsche Bank has fired Trump's account manager and is walking away from him. Politically motivated, obviously. As are the social media companies. There is a minor problem with that conclusion. It is this: if Donald Trump had remained completely politically inactive, and given Deutsche is in such massive trouble it still would've come a-knocking. POTUS has had about $300m of debt forgiven or written off since 2010, and still owes more than that to Deutsche Bank. Some very big financial gurus are now ing, in hindsight Trump was rolling back...

    I have a message that I hope to get to President Trump which could directly help Parler and America. In 2017 I worked at Dam Neck Annex directly supporting DEVGRU as an Intel Analyst. I was very surprised to find out that Amazon hosts US Gov databases with highly sensitive, and TS information/intelligence. I believe Amazon has proven itself to be unfit, and untrustworthy given it's current actions against Parler and cannot be trusted with hosting sensitive intelligence data. I believe President Trump should remove all government data from Amazon hosting or take over Amazon servers to ensure that our...

    The dangerous, evil, all-powerful, fascist, Nazi dictator Donald Trump has been voted out of office and censored, as is tradition for evil dictators. “I never thought I’d live to see the day where America is ruled by a dictator!” said concerned American Kelly Lampler. “But at least now he’s a dictator that has been effortlessly silenced online!” “We are living through scary times indeed under the rule of this fascistic tyrant,” said worried CNN reporter Zeeke Chambers at a time when zero journalists or dissenters have been silenced, jailed, or executed by this administration. Like many dictators before him Trump...

    The odd-looking De Lisle carbine was the Frankenstein monster of rifles, made up of pistol, rifle, and submachine gun parts. Origins The De Lisle rifle was designed to arm British Commandos for secret, silent operations in Europe during the Second World War. And the rifle, actually a carbine, filled a special niche role: it was small, light-weight — and most importantly, one of if not the quietest rifle produced during the Second World War.

    Why the Glock 19? Modern polymer materials combined with more consistent action and superior corrosion resistance simply performed better than SIG’s all-metal design. Navy SEALSs and SIG: After the United States military shifted away from the iconic albeit somewhat aged M1911A1 to the more modern Beretta M9 in 1985, Navy SEALs decided to go in a different direction, opting to carry the SIG Sauer P226, which was dubbed Mk 25 in SEAL service.

    I saw a video yesterday, I believe it was here on FR. The video shows, what was reported as Ashli Babbitt, as she enters the Capitol, the group she is with calmly walk past a large contingent of police, who are off in the distance. After entering the Capitol, through what appears to be a side door, they walk past several security guards who just calm watch them stroll in.
