The Truth About World
War II
Posted By: Mercedes44, 9/5/2024 6:31:22 AM
In a recent and now widely seen Tucker Carlson interview, a guest historian named Darryl Cooper casually presented a surprising number of flawed theories about World War II. He focused his misstatements on the respective roles of Winston Churchill’s Britain and Adolf Hitler’s Germany—especially in matters of the treatment and fate of Russian prisoners, the Holocaust, the systematic slaughtering of Jews, strategic bombing, and the nature of Winston Churchill. Because of the size of the audience Carlson introduced him to, and because of the gravity of Cooper’s falsehoods, his assertions deserve a response.

Soros and 17 others the Presidential Medal
of Freedom 75 replies
President Biden will award the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, to former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, billionaire Democratic megadonor George Soros and several others at a White House ceremony on Saturday.
The White House said Clinton, Soros and the 17 other recipients of the prestigious award are “individuals who have made exemplary contributions to the prosperity, values, or security of the United States, world peace, or other significant societal, public or private endeavors.”
“President Biden believes great leaders keep the faith, give everyone a fair shot, and put decency above all else,” the White House said in a statement.
Law Professor Nails Why Judge Mer

President-elect Donald J. Trump will be sentenced on January 10, but there will be no jail time, not that was ever a concern. The laws and statutes got so contorted that even CNN’s Elie Honig, the network's chief legal analyst and former assistant US attorney, couldn’t defend it, aptly calling it a total disaster of a case. In essence, Trump only got convicted because Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and his team perverted the rule of law. Law professor Jonathan Turley nailed why Judge Juan Merchan wants to get this wrapped on January 10. It’s to give the liberal media the talking point they’ve salivated over for months:
Iran's mullahs would surely love nothing more than to cut a deal with the incoming Trump administration that would enable them to stay in power, build their nuclear weapons and unleash them at a later date.
Bribing adversaries to stop only provides funding, which finances their military so they can attack us later with bigger weapons. That is how North Korea and Iran built their nuclear weapons programs. China's was built by direct investment: a gift to kill us from Uncle Sam.
Venezuela’s socialist regime on Thursday announced a $100,000 bounty for information leading to the capture of exiled opposition presidential candidate Edmundo González.
The bounty on González, who currently lives in exile in Spain, comes days before January 10, 2025, the start date of a new six-year presidential term in Venezuela as per the nation’s constitution. Both socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro and González, a 75-year-old former diplomat, are planning presidential inaugurations in Caracas on that day. Both claim to have won the 2024 presidential election, which a large number of international observers have dismissed as rigged.
As they have throughout the hours and days following the shocking Cybertruck explosion outside of the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, on New Year's Day, law enforcement officials conducted another press conference in which they disclosed multiple stunning new details regarding the incident. Below are some of the key details disclosed in Friday afternoon's presser:
Authorities recovered the phone of Matthew Livelsberger, the 37-year-old man believed to be the driver of the Cybertruck. The phone was damaged in the explosion, but they were able to extract the data.
Ingratiating Politics

Folks, I know this is not a popular opinion, but I have always promised to call them exactly as the data aligns and as I see them unfolding.
Taking a position in support of Tommy Robinson, taking a strong position against Muslim rape gangs in the U.K., and taking a position in favor of Nigel Farage are not controversial positions in the world of MAGA. In fact, they are popular positions widely held by all of us. However, those positions have little bearing on OUR set of challenges in the USA.
It has not been a good day for Kamala Harris. We’ll be rid of her soon enough, but her last big job before leaving will be certifying the results of the election that she just spent a billion dollars to lose. That will be fun to watch.
On Friday, however, Kamala came out of hiding for one of her remaining ceremonial duties: swearing in the new senators. Predictably, even that didn’t go smoothly. She kicked off the day by leading the Senate chamber in the Pledge of Allegiance, only to fumble her way through it.
What We Got Right — And Wrong — In 2024
3 replies
As editorial writers for a combined 90 or so years, we’ve found ourselves often trying to divine the future in addition to insightfully commenting on the present. So we thought with only a few hours left in the year, we’d look back and see if our foresight was sharp, or maybe just a bit blurry, and if our assessment of current events was on the mark.
What We Got Right
We suggested in February that Joe Biden wasn’t going to be the Democrats’ nominee in 2024. “In short,” we said, “given that the establishment left is now insisting that Biden will be the nominee makes it more likely that he won’t be.”
The Canadian government pledged to crack down on student visa abuse after Indian officials complained about a “well-planned conspiracy” that used Canadian student visas to smuggle Indian nationals into the United States.
According to India’s Directorate of Enforcement, an umbrella agency that coordinates interdepartmental investigations of money laundering, a sophisticated criminal operation in India has been systematically abusing student visas to smuggle Indians into Canada. The criminals allegedly targeted a hundred Canadian colleges and universiti
2024’s Biggest Loser Was Barack Obama
26 replies
As desperate, phony, and even dangerous of a campaign Democrats ran this year, and as embarrassing as the outcome was for all of them, nobody came out looking more pathetic than Barack Obama. From 2024’s vantage point, is there any way to look at his legacy but as a tragic blight on American history?
In the final months of the campaign, Obama seemed to know the outcome of the election would say just as much about him as it would about Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, or Donald Trump. And, like all realistic Democrats, he knew that the nominee he supported was on track to lose.
For the first time since FDR and the Great Depression, voters who identify as Republicans outnumber Democrats by a significant margin, according to data released this week by Gallup. Not just Gallup, either. Political analyst Patrick Ruffini noted Monday, "After the exit polls were reweighted to reflect the final popular vote result, Republicans outnumbered Democrats by 5 points in the AP VoteCast survey and by 4 points in the network exit polls."Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1928.
So what changed?
In the last 16 years, we've had 12 years of hard-left Democrat presidents who got everything they wanted, legislatively,
Gov. Hochul last week signed a new climate bill forcing fossil-fuel companies to pay $75 billion in “recovery” assessments over the next 25 years for their alleged role in causing “extreme weather.”
“It’s time for large polluters to pay their fair share,” she declared.
But the claim is an unscientific joke — and the law, passed by some of the nation’s most obtuse and know-nothing legislators, means the political class in Albany just hit the gas pedal on the Empire State’s economic demise.
Under this law, New York will “impose cost recovery demands” for extreme weather events “on responsible parties,” or fossil fuel companies,

Honduran President Xiomara Castro has threatened to terminate military cooperation with the United States if President-elect Donald Trump proceeds with his plan for mass deportations of illegal immigrants, including those from Honduras.
This ultimatum underscores the glaring hypocrisy of a leader who has failed to address the root causes driving her own citizens to flee her country in the first place.
A primary objective of Trump’s mass deportation plan is to remove individuals with criminal records who are residing in the country illegally.
The disgraced comedian Kathy Griffin thinks it is only a matter of time before she is sent to an internment camp.
In an interview with Chicago’s WGN radio station this week, Griffin urged her fans to buy tickets to her latest tour, My Life On the PTSD List, before she is taken away by authorities.
“Come see me before I’m in one of those internment camp,” she said. “I’m on the enemies list. That’s very obvious.”
“He was very, very scared when I did a parody photo of him and a Halloween mask and a lot of ketchup.
Incoming Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has named newly-installed Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) to the powerful Senate Judiciary Committee, which reviews judicial appointments, including to the Supreme Court.
Mynewsla.com reported:
According to Schiff’s office, he will serve on the Senate committees on the Judiciary; Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry; Environment and Public Works; and Small Business and Entrepreneurship.
“I am grateful for the opportunity to serve on four committees of keen interest to all Californians,” Schiff said in a statement. “These assignments will allow me to work directly on the high cost of housing and other inflation issues,
MSNBC has an ongoing ratings problem and host Lawrence O’Donnell is clearly doing everything he can to make sure it stays that way.
During a recent rant on his little-watched program, O’Donnell singled out U.S. veterans, specifically from the Army, as a greater terror threat than the people illegally crossing the southern border.
A former CIA officer recently said that more than a thousand al-Qaeda operatives have likely crossed the open border and are now in the United States just waiting to strike but apparently, O’Donnell hasn’t heard that report.
MSNBC should be ashamed for airing this.
Tammy Bruce was a liberal activist in the 1990s—until she saw the light and became a powerful (self-described) Independent Conservative voice on Fox News, talk radio, books, and as a columnist at The Washington Times.
On Friday night, President-elect Donald Trump named her as spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State in his upcoming administration.
The Trump-Vance Transition Team released a statement:
It is my great honor to announce that Tammy Bruce will be joining our incredible Nominee for United States Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, as Spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State.
President Joe Biden awarded election denier and two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Saturday.
The medal is the highest civilian award in the United States.Biden, 82, hung the medal around Clinton’s neck as she smiled. He then kissed her on the cheek before she walked away to sit down. (X Video) Clinton, who failed to defeat now President-elect Donald Trump in 2016 and Barack Obama in 2008, is a longtime election denier:
2016: Claimed the Supreme Court “took away a presidency” in Bush v. Gore.
2017: Said she would not “rule out” questioning the legitimacy of the 2016 election.
The FBI has remained silent on whether it will fire or discipline the agent who initially told the media and public that the shocking New Year's Day attack in New Orleans was "not a terrorist event," before the agency quickly backtracked and reported the attack was in fact under investigation as a terror incident. Fox News Digital reached out to the FBI's press office and press secretary on Thursday and Friday, inquiring whether New Orleans field office FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Alethea Duncan would face termination or disciplinary action over her initial claim the attack was not connected
After Shamsud-din Jabbar’s New Orleans attack turned a New Year’s celebration into violent tragedy, the Federal Bureau of Investigation continues to show why it has forfeited the trust of the American people.
Jabbar affixed an ISIS flag to the pickup he drove at high speed into a crowd of revelers, killing at least 14 people.
Yet the FBI at first refused to call the attack what it plainly was: terrorism.
That’s even though it arrested a shocking 10 ISIS would-bes in 2024 alone, thankfully before they were able to carry out any attacks — including a 17-year-old in Arizona.
“This is not a terrorist event,”
Outgoing Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was mocked as a fool after his effort to burnish the legacy of his soon-to-be ex-boss, suggesting that President Joe Biden’s accomplishments should be viewed in a historic context.
On New Year’s Eve, Buttigieg, who only got his important job because he’s openly gay, posted a video to his X account hailing Biden and fellow DEI hire Kamala Harris for their “Big Deal” for infrastructure and ludicrously claiming that their work will one day be viewed as a titanic achievement, much like the Hoover Dam.

Lauren Sánchez’s sunbathing aboard her fiancé Jeff Bezos’ $500 million yacht, Koru, was interrupted by customs officers for a search that lasted three hours on New Year’s Eve, Page Six has learned.
We obtained photos of the former TV reporter, 55, smiling and posing on the top deck of the luxury ship, wearing a Versace bikini, black sarong and large hat, while officers scoped another area.
The uniform-clad officials, who stepped onto the boat with all of their equipment and black life jackets, were seen speaking to a stewardess, as she appeared to instruct them on where to go.
On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Your World,” DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas responded to questions on how we can ensure ISIS won’t exploit the border by stating that “individuals who pose a threat to public safety or our national security are prioritized for immigration detention and removal from the United States.” And that policy changes have been made to reduce traffic at the southern border.
After listing figures about potential terrorists at the border, host Sandra Smith asked, [relevant exchange begins around 2:30] “How can we be sure that ISIS won’t find a safe harbor here?”Mayorkas answered, “It is our highest responsibility to ensure the safety and security
