‘If the generals are counting tunnels,
it suggests things are not going well’
Posted By: Harlowe, 12/19/2023 11:43:23 PM
This week, the Israel Defense Forces publicized what it said was the biggest Hamas terror tunnel uncovered to date, built under the stewardship of Hamas Gaza chief Yahya Sinwar’s brother Muhammad in the northern Gaza Strip, near the Erez Crossing into Israel.[Snip]Earlier this month, the IDF said it had located 800 tunnels and 500 shafts of various sizes and lengths in the course of the war against Hamas. Most of the tunnels discovered were located in northern Gaza, where the ground offensive began and has been most intensive. There are also massive tunnels for smuggling goods under the border Gaza shares with Egypt, at the southern foot of the Strip.

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said he would do “anything” to block Japanese steelmaker Nippon Steel’s acquisition of U.S. Steel.[Snip]“I’m gonna do everything I can to block it,” Fetterman wrote on X. “I live across the street from U.S. Steel’s Edgar Thompson plant in Braddock,” Fetterman said in a statement. “It’s absolutely outrageous that U.S. Steel has agreed to sell themselves to a foreign company. Steel is always about security--both our national security and the economic security of our steel communities. I am committed to doing anything I can do, using my platform and my position, to block this foreign sale.”
The 2024 presidential race is not quite fully underway.[Snip]The inevitability of another Trump nomination--and possible electoral victory next November--is something Beltway elites are coming to grips with. Robert Kagan, the neo-con husband of liberal zionist Victoria Nuland, said as much in a recent column for CIA mouthpiece The Washington Post.[Snip]It seems that what he is trying to say with the words “still hoping for some intervention” is to urge the Deep State to assassinate Donald Trump.[Snip]Are we being programmed to accept a Trump assassination?
Lawyers for former President Trump argued Wednesday that a federal appeals court should not accelerate its consideration of whether he is immune from prosecution over claims related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.[Snip]“The prosecution has one goal in this case: To unlawfully attempt to try, convict, and sentence President Trump before an election in which he is likely to defeat President Biden,”[Snip]Trump’s attorneys criticized the move, saying it prevents judges from taking their time to answer “novel, complex, and sensitive questions of profound importance.”
Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò delivered an address to the “Is the Pope Catholic?” conference this past weekend forcefully stating that Jorge Maria Bergoglio is a “false prophet” who fits the description of the one spoken of by the prophet Daniel during the time of the “final persecution” of the Church, to whom no Catholic owes “any” obedience or collaboration but rather steadfast resistance.[Snip]“We know that John Podesta was working on behalf of Hillary Clinton and Obama--and the globalist elite in general--to promote a ‘colored revolution’ within the Church that was supposed to oust Benedict XVI from the papacy, elect an ultra-progressive pope,
Senate Democrats are calling on conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from ruling on former President Trump’s claim that he is immune from prosecution for alleged crimes he committed while in office. Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) and other Democrats on the panel argue that Thomas faces a conflict of interest because his wife Ginni was outspoken in support of Trump’s false claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen. “There are so many unanswered questions about the relationship of the justice and his family with the Trump administration that I think in the interests of justice,
Right. We’re all going to save our country[Snip]Fast forward to Donald Trump, same thing: America first and a peace maker--for bringing the troops home, saving the tens of billions of dollars that would have gone into those pointless wars, striking peace agreements in the Middle East, the Abraham Accords, historic, historic peacemaking. They can’t have that, cannot have it. The forces we are up against are so dangerous, they will destroy, they will ruin. They will kill you. And this is what I mean about the spiritual nature of the battle that we are in. This is a spiritual war.
Sometimes coincidences happen in American politics, but what’s happening right now with the Democratic Party--the repeated loud and public doubting about Joe Biden’s future by prominent party figures--is not a coincidence. This is coordinated,[Snip]“If he were going to drop out,” Kennedy said, referring to Biden, “the time to drop out would be during the convention because then he would control the delegates, because they’re all Biden delegates, and he would then be able to pick his successor.”[Snip]direct all of his secured delegates to fall behind someone else,
A venomous eight-inch-long spider native to Asia, whose palm-sized females cannibalize their male mates, is flying up America's east coast and spreading out west. Experts say the Jorō spider can fly 50 to 100 miles at a stretch, using their webbing as a parasail to glide in the wind, and it's now also hitching rides up east coast highways--but the creatures aren't known to pose a threat to humans or pets. [Snip] In contrast, the Jorō spider mostly preys on flies, mosquitos and stink bugs—with the latter being not only a threat to crops,
Stacey Sawyer taught 8th grade in Cape Coral, FL. Taught is the key word. Sawyer, 55, quit her job in June due to student violence and the fact that they hardly ever face punishment. [Snip] “It was getting to the point that it was scary. There were a few days that I was scared to go to school,” [Snip] Sawyer taught for 30 years. Student behavior problems began before the COVID pandemic, but those involved in schools said the shutdowns escalated the problem: [Snip] “Now, now, Joey. That was not nice. Don’t do it again!” Or they’ll talk about feels and emotions, coddle the students.

ATLANTA - An effort to access voting system software in several states and provide it to allies of former President Donald Trump as they sought to overturn the results of the 2020 election has raised “serious threats” ahead of next year's presidential contest, according to a group of experts who urged federal agencies to investigate.[Snip]“The multistate effort to unlawfully obtain copies of voting system software poses serious threats to election security and national security and constitutes a potential criminal conspiracy of enormous consequences,” the group wrote in a letter sent to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland,

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin warned Congress on Tuesday during a private briefing that if they do not pass more aid to Ukraine, it would “very likely” lead to U.S. troops fighting a war in Europe. “If [Vladimir] Putin takes over Ukraine, he’ll get Moldova, Georgia, then maybe the Baltics,” House Foreign Affairs Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) told The Messenger, after Austin and other senior Biden administration officials briefed House lawmakers on their request for more aid for Ukraine. [Snip] Rep. John Duarte (R-CA) told the Messenger that the briefing was “prescriptive and staged.”

Another day ending in “y,” another pro-Hamas anti-Israel protest. This one broke out Monday evening in New York City’s Penn Station, where protesters marched into the Daniel Moynihan Train Hall in Manhattan to harass travelers and intimidate anyone who disagreed with their viewpoint.
It started around 5 p.m., according to a local news station:
The group came from the Port Authority Bus Terminal, and earlier marched down 42nd Street from Grand Central Terminal where the MTA earlier warned commuters about travel restrictions.
Police could be seen barricading and blocking entrances to Penn Station around 5 p.m., including a NJ TRANSIT entrance on 7th Avenue, but
Three main points before getting to the substance.(snip)As long as President Trump appeals the decision to the Supreme Court, the appeals court stays their own ruling – essentially indefinitely. The Colorado primary ballots printed, and the primary election will be over, before the Supreme Court puts this on their docket. In addition to the virtual guarantee the high court will overrule this political nonsense, SCOTUS can make the entire issue moot before them by following their own normal schedule for submissions, arguments, deliberation and opinions delivered by the court.
In a stunning and unprecedented decision, the Colorado Supreme Court removed former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 ballot, ruling that he isn’t an eligible presidential candidate because of the 14th Amendment’s “insurrectionist ban.”
The ruling was 4-3.
The ruling will be placed on hold pending appeal until January 4, pending a certain appeal to the US Supreme Court, which could settle the matter for the nation
Dozens of Jeffrey Epstein's high profile associates are in for a New Year's surprise as they will be named in court documents set to be released in the first days of 2024.
The pedophile's powerful friends are set to be exposed as part of a vast unsealing that a judge ordered on Monday will take place in 14 days.
That will take the release day to January 1 – but as that is a holiday it is likely the files will be made public the following day. Some 177 people will be identified across hundreds of files which will shed new light on the late financier's sex trafficking operation and

We reported earlier about the new Monmouth national poll showing President Joe Biden has dropped to his lowest approval rating ever, earning a meager 34 percent. But voters are even more unhappy with another politician, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who received an exceptionally low six percent approval rating. Meanwhile, 60 percent of respondents disapproved of the job he's been doing. (X) Monmouth wrote about the McConnell numbers, noting that he’s the only person in the poll who received a net negative score:
The all-Democrat appointed Colorado Supreme Court last night barred Donald Trump from the state's 2024 Republican ballot over his role in the January 6 riot - with legal experts warning they have imperiled American democracy.
The 4-3 decision marks the first time in history that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment - which disqualifies insurrectionists from office - has been used to eliminate a presidential candidate.
Justices Richard L. Gabriel, Melissa Hart, Monica Márquez and William W. Hood III said that they had 'little difficulty' in determining that the events of January 6 were an insurrection and that Trump did 'engage' in that alleged rebellion.
Governor Chris Sununu (R-NH) said Tuesday on CNN’s “The Lead” that former President Donald Trump was using “extreme” language on immigration because he was “nervous his base is going to leave him.”
Sununu said, “Everyone knows Donald Trump’s record. You know, as Republicans, we want that border secure. You know, we want the right fiscal policies in place. We wanted to drain the swamp. He didn’t do any of it. And there’s no, you don’t even have to run ads on that. He just didn’t get it done. ”
He continued, “You know, it’s funny when you he was here over the weekend, and he spent all this
Is the Bubble You Live In Making You Dumb?

A comic in a club started to make a joke about President Joe Biden and was promptly heckled by a woman shouting, “Stop it. I like Joe.”
I watched the YouTube video of it and once again marveled at the very idea that anyone in 2023 could be so ignorant of Biden’s character.
At present, polls show that his approval ratings are the lowest ever for an incumbent president but the very fact that 30% of those polled still believe he’s doing a good job means that idiocracy is now the normal state in America.
All right, perhaps, I’m wrong and the average I.Q. in America hasn’t decreased to -50.
Even for most people who have been writing about the lunatic ravings of the Democrats and their flying monkeys in the mainstream media, the 2024 United States presidential election is going to bring us weirdness and hysteria like we've never seen. I've been talking and writing about that since Donald Trump began racing away in the primary polling, and the lefties have been working overtime to prove that I still have some powers of political prognostication.
Joe Biden was already checking out mentally when he announced that he was running for president back in 2019. His infamous "basement campaign" in 2020 had far more to do with
Every year, The Christmas Story is a holiday feature. I enjoy it a lot!
The Chinese restaurant ending is great! Everything about this movie is so politically incorrect, from the old man to Mrs. Parker, to just about everything else. Remember the line about the old man being as good as an “Arab trader” when they are looking for Christmas trees? What about the lamp? The late Roger Ebert reviewed this movie in 2000. I’m not sure why he waited so long but he nailed it. This is Mr. Ebert’s review:
One of the details that ‘A Christmas Story’ gets right is the threat
Five people were crushed after they hung out of an SUV during a 'street takeover' in a Colorado Springs strip mall as the driver preformed donuts. The incident occurred just after 10:15 pm on Saturday in the parking lot of The Market at Spring Creek in southeast Colorado Springs. When police arrived on the scene, they found several passengers severely injured. They were taken to a local hospital, and their conditions are unknown at this time.
The Real Claudine Gay Scandal
21 replies
Dr. Claudine, current President of Harvard University, is one lucky woman or, as she might describe herself a “a lucky woman of color.” She first survived her dreadful testimony before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, where she refused to unambiguously denounce calls from Harvard students and faculty to kill all Israeli Jews. It was an embarrassing performance filled with weasel words and amorphous defenses such as “it all depends on context” as if genocide might be legitimate in some circumstances. Gay’s second lucky break was to survive clear-cut evidence that she was a career plagiarist, and this scholarly dishonesty far exceeded inadvertent sloppiness.
