Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan of Alaska did not hold back during Thursday night’s high-stakes “Debate for the State” in Anchorage when he spotted his Democrat opponent, former Rep. Mary Peltola, appearing to read from scripted notes or answers. Sullivan appeared suspicious after observing Peltola consulting her notes and suggested that her responses looked suspiciously prepared. “We weren’t supposed to get these questions beforehand, were we?” Sullivan asked the moderators from Alaska Public Media and Alaska’s News Source. The moderator replied firmly: “Neither one of you got questions beforehand. Absolutely not.” Sullivan didn’t let it go. “Okay, I’m just watching my...

Trump pal and former modeling agent Paolo Zampolli has been fired from his position of special envoy at the State Department following a bizarre year-long war over email leaks, Politico reported. A U.S. official told Politico Thursday that Zampolli’s “status as an envoy has been terminated and he is no longer a government employee.” Zampolli’s firing appears to be the culmination of a nasty feud between the special envoy and the deputy secretary of State Christopher Landau. According to Politico, the two top appointees “have been embroiled in a monthslong fight that includes accusations of leaks to the media and...

This week the silliness casts a spell with witches!

Sadly, and very stupidly, John Cornyn, and his Liddle’ Buddy, Super RINO, Karl Rove, are doing everything possible to make it hard for Ken Paxton, the Greatest Attorney General in the History of Texas, and one of the Best in the United States, to win the upcoming Midterm Election against a Radical Left Lunatic, James TalaFREAKO, who is the ANTITHESIS of Texas Values. John Cornyn who, after my Endorsement, lost the Primary to Ken by a very wide margin, and Karl Rove, who shouldn’t be allowed to spew his jealousy on FoxNews, should be ashamed of themselves. They are hurting...

Amazon has major problems...Amazon has become a Chinese flea market operating inside an American distribution empire... 55.9% of its top 10,000 sellers are now China based, while American entrepreneurs invest in developing products, building brands, proving demand and creating the very markets that overseas competitors move in to capture...The pattern is well documented... an American inventor develops something successful, Chinese knockoffs flood the marketplace, prices collapse, original listings get hijacked, and fraudulent intellectual property complaints can even force legitimate sellers offline...Forearm Forklift...

Two top appointees of President Donald Trump, including the deputy secretary of State, have been embroiled in a monthslong fight that includes accusations of leaks to the media and “bizarre” threats of defamation — all over emails that at times included more than a dozen administration officials. The conflict centers on Paolo Zampolli, a personal friend of Trump’s and a special envoy at the State Department, and Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau, according to the messages obtained by POLITICO. The emails stretch over almost a year and show Zampolli and Landau disagreeing over chains of command as Landau admonishes...

Funny how accountability only works one way. It’s always Trump’s fault when Islamic Republic of Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz, but never genocidal-Hamas Gaza leaders’ fault when their October 7 attacks trigger a war in Gaza. Funny how accountability only works one way.

A Ventura County man is facing federal charges after allegedly using his access as a civilian contractor to secretly photograph and film sensitive military equipment and operations at a Southern California naval base, then share the footage with others.

JoeLange@JoeLange·18hThere’s a reason why Zelensky doesn’t want another election.And it’s the same reason that he doesn’t want to end the war in Ukraine.He’s a really unpopular dictator in Ukraine and would lose an honest election in a landslide and then face justice for his war crimes against his own people.But canceling elections, wasn’t the only thing Zelensky did.He then “suspended” all political parties and then banned them. Otherwise, you would have seen huge uprisings in Ukraine against Zelensky.After that, he consolidated the large TV networks into one that he controlled and also banned the independent networks. He’s been throwing independent...

BJ Ganem@BJGanem·Oct 13Charlie Plumb reveals how a Navy fighter pilot survived 2,103 days in the Hanoi Hilton by changing one single word in his own head:He was tortured, isolated, and lied to for six straight years, and the ten lines below are the actual tools he used to come out the other side stronger instead of broken:1. Overconfidence gets you shot down.Before his 75th mission, Plumb believed nothing in the sky could touch him. That belief ended in about ninety seconds.I flew the skies of Vietnam thinking they didn’t have a missile big enough to shoot down Charlie Plumb.Pride is...

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' recent head injury was allegedly caused by a brawl with Jamaican drug lord Christopher 'Dudus' Coke, sources claimed. The disgraced rap mogul, 56, was rushed out of federal prison in New Jersey last Saturday morning to be treated at a hospital after being hurt behind bars.

Abdul el Sayed, the Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan, expresses irritation when he is asked about his association with Hasan Piker, the streamer/provocateur who said America deserved 9/11. “I’m not here to disavow people’s views,” el Sayed said during the Michigan Democratic primary campaign. “I’m here to have a conversation about how to get money out of politics, put money back in pockets, and pass Medicare for All.” Give el Sayed credit for staying on message; those are the three main themes of his campaign. On his website, el Sayed groups several positions under each one. Under “Money Out of...

A transgender person (biological male) fatally stabbed a man in South Side Chicago for disrespecting his gender. Kelly Day, 32, stabbed the victim, identified as 50-year-old Larry Young, more than 13 times last Wednesday near a gas station in the 1400 block of East 87th Street. The attack was so brutal and violent that the knife's blade broke off in Larry Young's skull. According to the Chicago Tribune, the stabbing occurred after Day had an encounter with a separate group of people earlier in the day at a McDonald's bathroom. They reportedly mocked Kelly Day for using the women's bathroom...

When President Trump’s former personal lawyer, Alina Habba, married a Turkish businessman last month, the lavish ceremony cemented their status as a power couple. Ms. Habba, 42, a longtime Trump loyalist, and Turhan Mildon, 29, an investor, hosted some of Washington’s most powerful people, including Attorney General Todd Blanche, the F.B.I. director, Kash Patel, and Will Scharf, the White House counsel. At that point, his patrons could no longer protect him. Mr. Maduro was not only out of power, but sitting in an American jail. Mr. Saab, Mr. Mildon’s most powerful ally in Venezuela, was arrested and extradited to the...
