Disney’s Doomed ‘The Marvels’ Earns
Worst MCU Monday Ever
Posted By: Dreadnought, 11/16/2023 12:05:23 AM
The Disney Grooming Syndicate’s The Marvels posted the worst first Monday box office in the doomed Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) history. After breaking the record for the worst opening weekend in the history of the 15-year-old MCU, The Marvels earned just $2.4 million on Monday. For context, The Eternals (also bombed) earned just $4.2 million on its first Monday, but that’s much more than The Marvels’ $2.4 million. Weaker titles in the MCU, such as The Incredible Hulk (2008), Ant-Man (2015), and this year’s Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantunobodycares had first Mondays of $6 million, $6.4 million, and $14.2 million respectively.

Michelle Goldberg has a column up today that reads more like a news story. The focus of the column is Rep. Jamaal Bowman who has been getting himself in trouble lately with his Jewish constituents because of his left-wing approach to Israel. Jazz wrote about some pronouncements Bowman made earlier this week at a rally demanding a ceasefire. You can imagine how well that went over with people who are actually Jewish and don’t agree with Bowman.
Plenty of Jews in his district, including some who loathe Israel’s right-wing government, disagree, and have grown alienated from their congressman and the strain of progressive politics he represents.
Embattled GOP Rep. George Santos is facing another resolution to expel him from Congress.
Republican Rep. Michael Guest, chairman of the House Ethics Committee, filed the resolution on Friday -- one day after his panel released an explosive report stating a monthslong probe of the New York congressman "revealed a complex web of unlawful activity involving Representative Santos' campaign, personal, and business finances." House investigators detailed how it said Santos used dollars donated to his political campaign for his own personal benefit, such as $2,900 labeled for "Botox" and $10,000 spent at high-end Ferragamo and Hermes store. Santos slammed the report as "disgusting politicized smear" and said he'd continue to defend
How's this for a guy who goes against the current?
Argentina's presidential frontrunner, Javier Milei, a militant libertarian and zero-apologies supporter of Israel, has picked up and waved the Israeli flag at a gargantuan campaign rally -- and the crowd went wild: While it's kind of unusual for a presidential candidate to pick up another country's flag at a campaign rally for the presidency of his own country, there is some valuable context to explain why that is going on.
One, he doesn't care what polite society thinks of him, so waving the flag of a country he admires is entirely in character.
Two, Argentina has the largest population of Jews

WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court said Thursday it will not allow Florida to enforce its new law targeting drag shows, while a court case proceeds.
The justices refused to narrow a lower-court order that has prohibited the law from being enforced statewide. Florida had asked the court to allow its anti-drag show law to be enforced everywhere except at the Hamburger Mary's restaurant in Orlando, which challenged the law's constitutionality.
Three justices, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Clarence Thomas, said they would have granted the state's request.

Hell hath no fury like the Democrats’ scorn for Moms for Liberty.
These mothers have been attacked, vilified, bullied, doxed, and called every demeaning and negative name in the book. Why? Because mothers around the nation grew weary of the Left’s vice-like grip on the education industrial complex. These brave women decided to resist, fight back, and challenge left-wing ideological dominance in education by embracing the spirit of two simple words: “No more.”Such defiance and desire to protect their children has petrified Democrats, liberals, and left-wingers everywhere. They fear the threat to the Left’s core values and sociopolitical monopoly on education that Moms for Liberty represents.
The White House has forcefully condemned the recent social-media trend in which young influencers have taken to endorsing Osama bin Laden’s “letter to America” justifying al Qaeda’s 9/11 attack on the United States.
The trend, which emerged on the Chinese short-form video app TikTok in recent days, is driven largely by anti-Israel users who have praised bin Laden’s letter for the accuracy of its antisemitic diagnosis of America’s problems.
“There is never a justification for spreading the repugnant, evil, and antisemitic lies that the leader of al Qaeda issued just after committing the worst terrorist attack in American history

A pro-Palestinian activist group shared a frightening map of New York City newsrooms, businesses and landmark buildings — and called for “direct action” to “globalize intifada.”
In addition to news buildings, Within Our Lifetime, which describes itself as a Palestinian-led community organization, called for followers to target the offices of technology companies. “Each of the locations on this map reflects the location of an office of an enemy of both the Palestinian people and colonized people all over the world. Today and beyond, these locations will be sites for popular mobilization in defense of our people,” the sickening Wednesday night post read.

In the realm of national security, how important is genderqueerness? According to a recently revealed document, it deserves great regard.
The Daily Wire has published the National Security Agency's 34-page Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Glossary. The list of terms and their meaning solidly set the Defense Department's Woke level to Red.
The agency has an aim, and it's safety -- of feelings. Hence, the following words are featured:

That last entry refers to a perniciously pale perpetration:
I mean, why are we shocked by this poll? The Left might be, along with liberal media reporters, especially for all their chest-beating about how there is a difference between Hamas and ordinary Palestinians. We knew this was a laughably false narrative since Hamas was voted into power in 2006 in the Gaza Strip. The following year, they did what any radical group does: seized the local government and killed members of the rival Fatah Party. They’ve ruled Gaza with an iron fist for 17 years. So, how do these ordinary Palestinians feel about a two-state solution, Hamas, the October 7 attacks, and what their dream nation
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday on CBS’s “Evening News” that after the ground operation, Israel is closer to getting Hamas to release the hostages taken during the October 7 terror attack.
Anchor Norah O’Donnell asked, “CBS News has learned that there is a deal on the table to free hostages in exchange for a three- to five-day ceasefire. How close are you to bringing some of the hostages home?
Netanyahu said, “Well, we’re closer than we were before we began the ground action because the ground action has put pressure on Hamas to achieve a cease-fire.”
He continued, “We will have a temporary cease-fire
Throughout the Peach State, people are breathing a huge sigh of relief. On Thursday, Major League Baseball (MLB) finally decreed that Georgia is no longer racist when the league awarded the 2025 All-Star Game to Atlanta.
"We are thrilled that Major League Baseball has awarded the Atlanta Braves the 2025 All-Star Game,” said Terry McGuirk, the Braves’ chairman. “Time and time again, Atlanta has proven to be a world-class destination for the most exciting entertainment and sporting events. I am excited that baseball fans will have the opportunity to experience Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta along with all this area has to offer. Over the coming months,
Republicans roundly condemned the radical-left mob who “violently” assailed the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) headquarters Wednesday night, injuring six police officers and locking down House offices.
The mob attack on the DNC headquarters shows the radicalization of many in the Democrat party.
Democrat members of Congress inside the DNC’s headquarters appeared to narrowly escape the scene without injury, as “protesters” “illegally and violently” demanded peace in the Middle East. “Cease Fire Now,” many shirts of the mob members said.

Thursday on FNC’s “Special Report,” outgoing Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) addressed speculation he would seek the White House as a third-party candidate in 2024.
The West Virginia Democrat gave low marks to the two parties’ frontrunners, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.He told FNC host Bret Baier he had little confidence in either and warned of consequences if Trump were to win a second term. “Well, first of all, we don’t know on Super Tuesday who the two candidates may be on the Democrat and Republican side,” Manchin said. “But right now, I guess all odds are they will be Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
Special Counsel Robert Hur, who is investigating President Joe Biden for mishandling documents, is not expected to charge anyone, sources familiar with the matter told CNN and the Wall Street Journal.
The report suggests a double standard of justice. While there will reportedly be no consequences for Biden, Special Counsel Jack Smith indicted former President Donald Trump in June for mishandling classified documents.Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Hur in January to investigate Biden after classified documents from his time as vice president in Barack Obama’s administration were found in his possession at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, DC, and at his Wilmington, Delaware, home.

Former President Trump told his supporters earlier this year he would be their “retribution” if reelected. He told supporters last week he would direct the Justice Department (DOJ) to investigate “every Marxist prosecutor in America.” And Trump over the weekend vowed to “root out … the radical-left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country.” Trump’s own words have made increasingly clear how fixated he is on revenge and targeting his perceived enemies if he wins a second term in the White House next November.
U.S. energy experts are warning of the economic and national security implications of President Biden's pact with China this week to move towards shutting down fossil fuel production in favor of green energy. The State Department announced this week it had struck a deal with its Chinese counterparts pledging to "accelerate the substitution for coal, oil and gas generation" with green energy sources like wind and solar power. The nations, which account for nearly half of global greenhouse gas emissions, also agreed to "deepen policy exchanges" on reducing carbon emissions in various sectors, like power, industry, buildings and transportation, across their economies.
A vile letter written by the warlord behind the 9/11 atrocities has gone viral on TikTok with users saying that reading it has led to them 'understanding' as to why the horrific attacks were carried out in 2001.
Osama bin Laden, who founded terror group Al-Qaeda with the aim of waging holy war on the western world, wrote a 'Letter to America' in 2002 to defend the motivation behind his murderous attack on mainland America that killed thousands of innocent people.
In the viral letter, bin Laden regularly spews anti-American, anti-Semitic and anti-Western viewpoints,

Good. Republicans in other states should follow suit. You want to shut a lot of this down? Shut off the money. Politico reports: Florida Republicans target scholarships, grants for students supporting Hamas. Florida college students who “promote” Hamas and other designated terrorist organizations could have their scholarships, grants and other benefits yanked from them under a new bill proposed Wednesday by Republican lawmakers.[Snip]Further, colleges and universities under the legislation would be required to report students who promote any terrorist organizations to the Student and Exchange Visitor Program of the United States Department of Homeland Security.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department notified Vince Ricci, the Los Angeles Mid-City homeowner who opened fire on armed suspects who tried to get into his house, that his carry permit had been revoked. Last Sunday, Ricci was returning to his home when he turned the tide on two would-be-armed robbers when he drew his own licensed concealed firearm and opened fire on them. Ricci had just returned to his home after going to the gym when the two armed robbers ran into his front yard and confronted him at his front door. They tried to force their way into the home as Ricci was unlocking the front door.
Bud Light, the once iconic beer brand, continues to suffer the consequences of its partnership with "transgender influencer" Dylan Mulvaney. RedState wrote dozens of articles chronicling the saga (see here, here, and here for more details), which ended with a mass boycott that dropped Anheuser-Busch's market cap by $11 billion.
For those needing a recap, the trouble started when Mulvaney, a man who claims to be a woman, released a video of himself sitting in a hot tub with a can of Bud Light. On the can was a picture of Mulvaney's face celebrating his supposed "365th day of girlhood." A few other subsequent videos were put as well,
Biden Admin Pushing Coup in Israel
17 replies
The Biden administration keeps talking about the urgent need for Israel to have a post-war plan for Gaza. What that really means is that it wants the PLO to take over Gaza. Netanyahu has opposed that for now. The Palestinian Authority is run by Fatah, the body behind the PLO, and is just another Islamic terrorist group. And parts of it claimed to have taken part in the Oct 7 massacres. But none of that is stopping the Biden administration from its obsession.
The thinking is that if the Palestinian Authority takes over Gaza, it can force negotiations on a Two-State Solution and finally bring peace by empowering terrorists.
Joe Biden seems intent on keeping the mullahs of Iran well funded proving the means to continue their assaults on the world and on their own people.
The Gateway Pundit reported on Tuesday that the Biden administration extended a sanctions waiver allowing Iran to collect another $10 billion in funds.
Biden has now gifted the Iranian regime with $80 billion since entering the White House.
When not using focusing their time, and their increasingly flush coffers, on fomenting violence across the globe, the brutal regime is stepping up executions of anti-regime activists while the world is distracted by the Hamas-Israel war.

May Just Break All the Arrogance and Ignorance Meters 15 replies
We've seen actress Alyssa Milano say some pretty ignorant things over the years. What many find particularly annoying is that the ignorance is coupled with leftist preachiness, assuming her point is the only valid one. We've had fun with some of her virtue-signaling fits in the past, including her attacks on X owner Elon Musk.

But she may just be trying for the most ignorant crown when it comes to the Israeli-Hamas war.
She posted about the massive pro-Israel rally earlier in the week that had almost 300,000 people out in Washington, D.C.
Target has appeared to double down on its acceptance of radical gender theory despite a second straight negative sales report following backlash to its Pride-themed products earlier this year.
Target reportedly selected a man named Erik Thompson as its Senior LGBTQIA+ Segmentation Strategist and Pride Lead, according to a post he shared on Instagram that was flagged by popular X account Libs of TikTok. Thompson, who goes by “gaycruella” on the social media platform, shared with followers that he was “honored” to accept the role.
