Former President Donald Trump declared there has “never been a more dangerous time since the Holocaust” to be Jewish in the US on Saturday night. The Republican presidential candidate made the remarks at a campaign rally event in Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania, where he claimed Vice President Kamala Harris decided against choosing Penn. Gov. Josh Shapiro as her running mate because he is Jewish. “They turned him down because he’s Jewish,” Trump told a packed house at the Mohegan Sun Arena. “They turned him down for other reasons, but the primary reason is because he’s Jewish,” the ex-president continued, adding that “any...

President Joe Biden’s first televised interview since last week’s debate meltdown did little to stop the bleeding. Members of Congress and top Democratic operatives told POLITICO shortly after Biden’s sit down with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos aired that the president was more energetic and forceful than he was on stage during last week’s showdown with Donald Trump — but it likely won’t be enough to tame the panic. And many were shocked by the president’s blatant denial about his standing in the race, and his repeated dismissal of his party’s widespread concerns. It’s an approach some Democrats described as “dangerous.”...

The man had considered removing the two fingers himself. A Canadian man had two healthy fingers amputated to treat his “body integrity dysphoria,” a case report about his procedure reveals. The 20-year-old ambidextrous man experienced “profound distress” over his left hand’s fourth and fifth fingers and decided to have them amputated, according to the case report, which was published March 27 in Clinical Case Reports, an open access medical journal. Body integrity dysphoria is the rare phenomenon of individuals wanting to amputate parts of their body, usually limbs, often because they feel the body part does not belong to them....

'At the operational-tactical level, we did not think that within a year we would not be able to liberate the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. 'We did not think that there would be such heavy losses, although I then said there would be tens of thousands of dead on both sides. 'But everything turned out to be much worse.' Some estimates say the losses on both sides are now over 200,000, and rising fast. Russia alone is estimated to have lost as many as 140,000 since February last year. 'It was not expected that there would be such destruction: in fact,...

Desperate Vladimir Putin is recruiting a Dad’s Army of old folks to prop up his creaking Ukraine invasion. The Russian army has put out an SOS for volunteers aged up to 60 after sustaining heavy losses during the disastrous six-week campaign. The military wants ex-soldiers nearing retirement age to rejoin in the Siberian cities of Chelyabinsk and Tyumen, according to Russian media. Moscow desperately wants old tank commanders, snipers and engineers. They would join up to 60,000 reservists recently called to active service along with 134,500 new conscripts forced into action. The conscripts - men aged 18 to 27 -...

Say what you want about Jake Tapper, but he just did something that most of his co-workers are unwilling or unable to do. He asked Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a relatively tough question.The topic was concentration camps, like the ones AOC claims the U.S. has set up along the border with Mexico: "There were concentration camps under Obama and under Bill Clinton. That’s in the story you retweeted. Did you call them concentration camps at the time when Obama was president?"@jaketapper asks @AOC "at the time I was working in a restaurant ..." pic.twitter.com/R0ltbQyJr0— Washington Examiner (@dcexaminer) June 27, 2019 Tapper:...

Despite criticism from Holocaust survivors, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., continues to use the term “concentration camps” to describe the federal detention centers temporarily housing the massive wave of migrants who cross the border illegally to apply for asylum. Ocasio-Cortez’s chief target of criticism has been President Trump, but as President Obama’s former ICE chief pointed out this week, the detention centers existed during the Obama administration. So CNN’s Jake Tapper asked the self-described democratic socialist congresswoman if she called the centers “concentration camps” while Obama was president. “Well, at the time, I was working in a restaurant,” she began. “But...

The plane landed safely at San Jose Mineta International Airport, about 50 miles south of San Francisco. The airline says the passenger accused of smoking was turned over to law enforcement. The remaining 32 passengers were placed on other aircraft to continue their trips. Passengers reported smelling smoke, and one said he smelled marijuana. “It looked like that someone needed to smoke a joint on a plane, and he went into the bathroom, smoked his blunt, and set off the fire alarm,” passenger Jonathan Burkes said.

Bürgerfest for German unity Merkel calls on citizens to rise against the right wing Dresden. While on 26th anniversary of German unification Chancellor Angela Merkel has called for opposing right-wing populists, the celebrations have started in Dresden with a street festival. Three quarters of a million visitors are expected by Monday. It has prompted the highest level of security for the police. Given the increasing polarization of society, Federal President Stanislaw Tillich (CDU) urged further efforts to realize internal unity. That people lived in the East and West for over forty years in two different systems is now strongly felt...

Democrats should replace Debbie Wasserman Schultz as chair of the Democratic National Committee because she has used the DNC to help Hillary Clinton's campaign for president, hurt Bernie Sanders' campaign for president, and insulted the liberal wing of the party by trying to prevent large numbers of voters from watching the Democratic presidential debates. Ms. Wasserman Schultz is doing something no party chair should do, which is taking sides in a presidential campaign, and she is not doing what every party chair should do, which is building the party by registering voters and strengthening the Democratic grassroots organization in ways...

A classmate of mine asked our history teacher why it was important for us to learn about history. His answer was simple; we learn from our mistakes to ensure that we don't repeat them. That logic has been instilled in us from childhood. Now we are all grown, so it seems fitting that we should look back and ask - have we learned our lesson? We have a history of discrimination starting when the pilgrims docked. This was a country founded on the fundamental belief in freedom, yet we have discriminated against every culture. We asked the world to give...

It is becoming more clear to me everyday that Marco Rubio does not have what it takes to win broad support from grass roots conservatives.. He is completely ignoring 2 other candidates in the Republican Primary. One of whom I am publicly supporting. Dr. William Escoffery But this thread is not so much about Dr. Escoffery as it is about Marco Rubio himself... there are way too many "issues" with Marco Rubio, not the least of which is the fact that he is completely avoiding any contact/debate with the 2 other candidates in the GOP Primary, and we (as the...

Europe’s Endangered Soul Can the Continent survive the EU’s expansion? The European Union faces a major problem of governance, completely apart from its current difficulties with Greece. The politicians, administrators, and economists who run it, blind to the profound cultural and sociological dimensions of European society, are pushing unwise policies: expanded borders for the EU and continued heavy immigration from non-European countries. This is because the EU’s overseers, like all human beings, tend to be guided by their own interests. The bigger Europe gets, the more power, resources, and jobs flow to the bureaucracy of Brussels, and the more geopolitical...

Egyptian border guards have opened fire on Palestinians who breached the border to escape Israel's assault on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. An Egyptian security official said there were at least five breaches along the nine-mile border and hundreds of Palestinian residents were pouring in. At least 300 Egyptian border guards have been rushed to the area to reseal the border, the official added on condition on anonymity because he was not authorised to speak to the press. A resident of the Gaza Strip side of the border, Fida Kishta, said that Egyptian border guards opened fire to drive back...

"Innocent Palestinians", say what? who? Hmm, a tiny fringy minority - maybe! Don't you "love" it, to hear the term 'innocent Palestinians'? another great production of the 'Palestinian' propaganda greased by international monstrous Arab oil [not to be confused with helping any Arab 'Palestinians, which the Arab world never thought nor seeks to, of course, on the contrary, the Arab leaders have an "interest" & often 'help' in Arab Muslim 'Palestinians' kept down, amazing as it is, it serves them an anti Zionist bashing front and a diversion from their oppression, corruption and crimes on their own people] and Arab-Muslim political power worldwide....

He's a singer who has made some odd career moves in his time, from changing his name to an unpronounceable love symbol to scrawling "slave" on his cheek in protest at his record company. But industry experts yesterday warned that Prince's latest decision might be the most controversial of all. He has threatened to sue thousands of his biggest fans for breach of copyright, provoking an angry backlash and claims of censorship. His lawyers have forced his three biggest internet fansites to remove all photographs, images, lyrics, album covers and anything linked to the artist's likeness. A legal letter asks...
