    Dems and Dem Media have chosen their hill to die on. They will do anything to defend rapists, murders, drug dealers, fraudsters, if and precisely if they are Border Hoppers. They have chosen they want the votes from people like these and care exactly nothing for the rest of us. No matter that their cause is toxic, no matter whether Americans are fed up with these narratives.The Dems and the Dem media are force feeding us with Garbage daily. They spew their worst at us daily thinking there is nothing we can do about them.So, what can we do?Choose Life,...
  • Dear libs. 'How "black & brown" was Renee Good, again?'

    For months and even years libetal activists have been using the race card against ICE.The tragic death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen who was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, disproves that ICE is a “racist” agency targeting only Black and Brown people.Renee was a blue eyed white woman, liberal, involved in anti-ICE activism and reportedly part of a local “ICE Watch” group, and federal officials say she was impeding agents’ work when the confrontation occurred. In the hours before the shooting, Good had been monitoring and, according to government accounts, obstructing the federal immigration...
  • I'm a Risk board game champion... Here's how Trump's tactics are a winning strategy for global domination

    UK Daily Mail ^ | 01/11/2026 | Chris Melore
    A top-ranked board game player has said President Trump's geopolitical rampage through the Western Hemisphere looks just like a popular strategy in the game of Risk. Michael Olivol, a grandmaster and former world number one player at Risk, revealed that the game's most advanced players often attempt to control all of North America before moving on to easier targets like South America in their quest to rule the world. Risk is a classic strategy board game where players battle for global domination by conquering territories on a map, building armies, rolling dice to fight enemies, and forming sneaky alliances. Coincidentally,...
  • Bono calls for release of arch-terrorist Marwan Barghouti

    Arutz Sheva ^ | 11/1/26
    U2 frontman and activist Bono has publicly backed a campaign calling for the release of Marwan Barghouti from an Israeli jail. Barghouti has been serving multiple life sentences since 2002 for orchestrating murderous terrorist attacks against Israelis. He is widely believed to have planned the Second Intifada, which claimed thousands of Israeli lives from 2000 to 2005. Barghouti has continued inciting terrorism from his jail cell. Despite his convictions, he is viewed by many Palestinian Arabs as a unifying figure and potential future leader. In a personal essay published in The Atlantic, Bono described Barghouti as “a leader of vision,...
  • What if Greenland becomes a state?

    01/10/2026 4:21:02 PM PST · by Big Brother Go to Hell · 48 replies
    Should Trump really risk acquiring Greenland as a territory? I'm surprised the Democrats aren't already smirking and hissing, "Go for it, Donnie!" They'd be thrilled to have a mix of disgruntled, race baiting Eskimos and entitled Eurotrash Danes demanding statehood. As with Washington D.C., Greenland would give the 'Rat party an automatic two new AOC type senators and one Congress person if it were to join the Union. Maybe Greenland's slender population of 56,000 would preclude statehood? Maybe enough fishermen, miners, oil field roughnecks, and other red blooded Americans would move into Greenland by the time the issue of statehood...

    Orlando Speed World Dragway, an NHRA member track, has decided to ban fully electric vehicles from competition, including test and tune days. The Dragway says they’re making this decision for safety reasons. After reviewing emergency response procedures for its track, for specific full electric vehicles the venue decided the risks fully outweighed the rewards. The mid-Florida track enumerated its rationale for banning full electric vehicles, with the ban taking effect immediately, applying solely to full electric vehicles but allowing hybrid vehicles to continue to compete, as well as to test & tune. The risks include the following: The battery may...

    Tucker Qatarlson is currently at the White House where he is attending President Trump’s meeting with oil executives to discuss how to acquire the largest oil reserves in the world in Venezuela. Why is Tucker Carlson @TuckerCarlson attending when he has spent the last week completely trashing President Trump’s and @SecWar @SecRubio ’s military operation in Venezuela, and falsely claimed that President Trump is about to get us into a New World War and that he only captured Maduro so Trump could spread homosexuality in Venezuela? This is outrageous. Tucker Carlson is a virulent Jew hater and Islamic mouthpiece and...

    Oct 11, 2025 Voters are getting disgusted by the Democrat party. We are tired of seeing our once great cities get run to the ground. Our city streets are not safe any more thanks to Democrat governance that fails to prosecute criminals and protect its law-abiding citizens. Democrats abused democracy by weaponizing the justice department against Donald Trump. Democrats are even defending rioting and attacking of federal agents who are trying to keep our cities safe from illegal aliens. If you feel regret from voting for the Democrat party, you don't have to hate your self.

    Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was reportedly in the dark about the Trump administration’s plan to invade Venezuela and depose President Nicolas Maduro. Bloomberg reported on Thursday that the White House excluded the nation’s top intelligence from discussions about the planned ouster, which was carried out on Saturday. People familiar with the situation said that Gabbard had previously opposed U.S. intervention in the South American country. “The United States needs to stay out of Venezuela,” Gabbard, then a Democratic member of Congress, tweeted in 2019. “Let the Venezuelan people determine their future. We don’t want other countries to choose...
