Rally Round the Flag, Jihadis

On Nov. 17, the Palestinian flag was raised for the first time in front of Toronto’s city hall. There had been a great deal of protest from Jewish activists in anticipation of this event, but to no avail. Toronto’s mayor, Olivia Chow, is a prominent member of the New Democratic Party (NDP), Canada’s equivalent of America’s Democratic Socialists, and one might say she is Mamdani lite. Unlike New York’s mayor-elect, she has no charisma and no charm, but she’s a dyed-in-the-wool leftist with similar principles. In response to a letter-writing campaign, she explained that the decision had been made by “staff” according to the rules treating all “nationalities” the same.

For those of you upset that Florida Democratic Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick allegedly used your taxpayer money to win herself an election, please note that she didn’t just use it for that.
Instead, of the $5 million overpayment of COVID-era disaster relief to a healthcare company controlled by her family didn’t merely win her the seat of the late Alcee Hastings. No, that was only $1.14 million of it. And even some of that went to purchasing a 3.14-carat yellow diamond ring.
On Tuesday, as the Miami Herald reported, Cherfilus-McCormick appeared in a Miami courtroom to surrender to the court regarding the 15-count indictment against her. She’s charged with — deep breath —

Overseas visitors to 11 of America’s most popular national parks will need to pay an extra $100 per person to get in starting Jan. 1, the Interior Department announced Tuesday in a bid to make up for lost income from the recent government shutdown, as well as severe budget cuts.
Foreigners also will be left out of eight so-called “fee-free days” that correspond to patriotic holidays — including President’s Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, July 4 weekend, and Veteran’s Day.
As part of the changes, foreign tourists will also see their annual parks pass price jump to $250, while US residents will continue to be charged $80. The $100 surcharge will be
The U.S. Military could be preparing to sever ties with the Scouts, according to a leaked Pentagon memo.
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth wants to bring an end to the centuries-old partnership between the military and Scouting America because he believes the organization has developed a tendency to "attack boy-friendly spaces," according to documents reportedly seen by NPR.
A Department of Defense official told NPR the Pentagon would not comment on "leaked documents that we cannot authenticate and that may be predecisional." Newsweek contacted the U.S. Department of Defense for further comment via email. The U.S. military's relationship with Scouting America (formerly Boy Scouts of America) is a long-standing
The Biden administration allegedly pressured US airports to house migrants despite warnings that it could compromise safety and put travelers at risk, according to a bombshell Senate report.
The 47-page document, “Flight Risk” released by the Senate Commerce Committee, alleges the White House directed the Department of Transportation (DOT), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to find airport facilities for shelters or processing centers for migrants.
According to the report, the administration instructed DOT and FAA to “inventory available facilities” at both federally owned and local airports and to “divert federal resources” to support migrant arrivals.
Ads circulated by Philadelphia-area religious institutions are promoting Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro’s upcoming participation in a Thanksgiving interfaith event this Tuesday featuring extreme anti-Israel Imam Basheer Bilaal. This controversial gathering, hosted by the Old York Road Temple Beth Am Jewish center, comes on the heels of Shapiro’s $5 million grant to a mosque with a documented record of anti-Semitism – raising serious questions about his judgment and the message he is sending through his radical Muslim alliances.
Who Is Basheer Bilaal?
Basheer Bilaal is the resident imam of the Muslim Society of Delaware Valley (MSDV), which oversees the Islamic
Members of the House will soon have access to up to $20,000 a month to pay for personal security while they’re off the Hill — doubling the monthly amount currently available — and access to a mobile duress system, according to the House sergeant-at-arms.
Sergeant-at-Arms William McFarland announced the enhancements Monday in a “Dear Colleague” letter. The additional funds will be available Dec. 1 and will allow members to hire security personnel or companies for personal protection. It comes at a time of heightened threats and rising tensions over security for members of Congress.
“Covered services include accompanying a Member or providing residential coverage at a member’s home,” McFarland wrote
The FBI said Monday that 719 kilograms of methamphetamine were found in a shipment of blackberries. Law enforcement discovered 419 kilograms in a refrigerated truck parked outside a residence on Custer Avenue in Atlanta, according to a release from the FBI.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Juan Hernandez, age 40, and Nelsonen Sorto, age 36, both of Atlanta, are charged with trafficking methamphetamine. The driver of the truck was not with the shipment, according to a report from the Hall County Sheriff's Office. Gerardo Solorio-Alvarado, 44, was arrested at his residence on Browns Bridge Road in Gainesville and charged with trafficking methamphetamine. An additional 300 kilograms was found
Something stinks in Medford. Mayor Breanna Lungo-Koehn is racking up do-gooder awards for her environmental crusading, but some elected officials and residents of the Boston suburb are less impressed with her latest effort that will soon see trash pickup reduced to once every two weeks. The new plan, which will see residents’ 64-gallon trash bins collected half as frequently, was announced in tandem with the news that Medford had received a $200,000 “Pay As You Throw” grant from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection. “We made a commitment to Zero Waste in that plan and are making it easier for Medford residents and businesses
Last week a radio host in Salt Lake City asked me a question I didn’t expect. We’d been talking about my “jobs Americans won’t do” article, which kind of kicked the anthill, and everything stayed within the usual lanes: illegal immigration, wages, hiring incentives, hollowed-out towns. Then, at the very end, he asked the only question that really matters: “So how do we fix it?”
Not describe it or rant about it. Fix it.
My answer, essentially, was, "It's complicated." There isn’t a bumper-sticker answer. And there certainly isn’t a partisan one. The problem goes much deeper than illegal immigration, though illegal immigration made it far worse. The truth is brutal:
The public has until Midnight (Eastern), November 24, 2025, to submit feedback on the Department of Homeland Security’s proposed changes to the H-1B visa lottery.
As of midday today, about 1,000 new comments have been posted on the federal portal at Regulations.gov, bringing the total to over 12,000.
The proposed rule, titled “Weighted Selection Process for Registrants and Petitioners Seeking to File Cap-Subject H-1B Petitions”, would replace the current random lottery for 85,000 annual H-1B visas with a system that gives priority to higher-wage positions.
Registrations for unique beneficiaries would be entered into a weighted selection pool based on wage levels, with the highest-wage positions having the greatest odds of selection.

AP Argues for Oval Office, Air Force One Access 21 replies
The Associated Press argued for keeping its Oval Office and Air Force One access before a Washington, D.C., appeals panel Monday, after riling President Donald Trump over the news outlet’s insistence on using the phrase “Gulf of Mexico.”
“The First Amendment does not stop at the Oval Office door,” AP attorney Charles Tobin argued before the three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals.
He argued that the White House press pool system has long allowed the AP to attend almost every presidential event. He noted that some form of the White House press pool goes back to the White House of President James Garfield, and was more

As a three-time Trump voter with no regrets, I don’t like this message any more than most of you. So don’t shoot me, I’m just the messenger.
The message is the Republicans in next fall’s midterm elections will lose the House, bigly, and probably the Senate.
If politics is indeed “war by other means,” expect the political war next fall to be bloody. Think Battle of the Little Bighorn. Think Stalingrad. Think Pickett’s Charge. Think the Battle of Midway. Think Waterloo. It will be one-sided.
Oh, I know the President has done some terrific things – at great personal risk to himself, by the way – even if they were sometimes done unartfully.
Democrats are seeking to put limits on private donations to foot the bill for President Donald Trump's new White House ballroom amid what they say are bribery concerns. Trump announced in October that construction had started on the ballroom — leading to the demolition of the White House’s historic East Wing — and would be privately funded at an estimated cost of $300 million. That was up from the $200 million estimate first provided in July when the project was unveiled.
But Democrats are concerned the donors — including individuals and other organizations — are footing the bill for the project because they are seeking
Ken Burns and PBS want to teach us the history of the American Revolution. That’s objectively laudable, but from the opening seconds of his new six-part, 12-hour-long series on the Revolution, Burns is off to a truly ludicrous start.
[snip] Burns stated in an NPR interview on Oct. 20, 2025, that he believes the driving force of the American Revolution was not to secure for all Americans the ancient rights of Englishmen, but to steal land from the Indians.

FIRST ON FOX: A website belonging to the "Culture and Family Lab" at Minnesota’s flagship university hosts a webpage warning against a "whiteness pandemic" that provides "resources" on how to "halt and reverse" the issue." If you were born or raised in the United States, you have grown up in the Whiteness Pandemic, and you can play a role in halting and reversing this pandemic, especially if you are White because of the power and privilege you hold in this racialized society," explains the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities webpage, which is part of the Institute of Child Development.
DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip — Children and families in Gaza scooped muddy water from their tents on Tuesday, trying to protect the few belongings that remain after two years of war. Winter’s heavy rains have left displaced Palestinians splashing in water that reaches their ankles, and blaming both Israel and Hamas for the misery that remains despite a ceasefire. “All tents were destroyed,” said Assmaa Fayad in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, whose shelter was damaged in Tuesday’s latest downpour. “Where is Hamas? Where are the people to see this rain and how our children are drowning?” A Hamas spokesperson

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicted the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season was going to be above normal. With less than a week left in the season, how has the forecast panned out? It was off by a bit – the storms didn’t develop as predicted, even though we’ve been told for decades that man-caused global warming was going to bring stronger and more frequent storms.
In May, NOAA’s forecast called for a 60% chance of an above-normal season, a 30% chance we would see a near-normal season and only a 10% chance that activity would be below normal.

MELBOURNE, Australia — A man who set fire to a Melbourne synagogue while worshippers were inside was motivated by mental illness rather than antisemitism, an Australian magistrate said on Monday.
A v, 35, had pleaded guilty to arson and recklessly placing people at risk of death on July 4 when he doused the front door of the East Melbourne Synagogue with flammable liquid and ignited it. Around 20 worshippers were inside sharing a Shabbat meal, but no one was injured.

Are Privately Telling Him They Will Keep
Trump in ‘Check’ 12 replies
California gubernatorial candidate and Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA-14) claims that military members have privately confided in him plans to serve as a "check" to any orders issued by President Trump, suggesting they could defy their superiors.
The idea that service members are secretly huddling with a congressman who can't bench press above 135 and whose top athletic feat was having to retire from soccer after breaking both of his thumbs is specious at best.
That said, his remarks are an attempt to keep the sedition train rolling in the wake of a video from six Democratic lawmakers encouraging military members to defy orders from their superiors.
Affordability – for them.
One of socialist Zohran Mamdani’s first decisions as mayor could be whether to give himself and his City Council pals a big fat pay raise.
Councilwoman Nantasha Williams (D-Queens) pushed a bill Tuesday to bump pay for the city’s elected officials by more than 16%, with an eye to sending it to Mamdani’s desk after he’s sworn in as mayor on Jan. 1.
But the original plan for the bill had originally been to set up a speedy vote this month, before Mamdani took office – a maneuver council members had to scuttle when they realized city law blocked them from-
On Friday, the GOP-controlled House of Representatives did what many thought was unthinkable. In what can only be described as a stunning act of bravery, these bold Republicans - wait for it - passed a resolution that condemns socialism. The entire charade was like watching Olivia Nuzzi try to dish out marital advice. Consider that many of the same Republicans who enthusiastically voted to condemn socialism have had no problem bankrolling Obamacare, programs like SNAP, and every wallet-sucking entitlement program — all with zero intention of reforming or gutting any of them. It’s as ironic as it is comical.
