Fateh Sherif was, supposedly, an educator — the principal of Deir Yassin Secondary School. He was also an employee of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA.) Sherif also moonlighted as a Hamas leader, responsible for coordinating Hamas actions with Hezbollah, including recruiting and logistics operations.

Now he's been shuffled off the mortal coil by the Israeli Air Force after an air strike eliminated him, and the UNRWA is finally admitting he was one of theirs.

Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!

Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!

"Let me explain," Musk continued:

If even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible, that would be about 2 million new legal voters in 4 years. The voting margin in the swing states is often less than 20 thousand votes.

That means if the “Democratic” Party succeeds, there will be no more swing states!! Moreover, the Biden/Harris administration has been flying “asylum seekers”, who are fast-tracked to citizenship, directly into swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin and Arizona. It is a surefire way to win every election.

America then becomes a one-party state and Democracy is over. The only “elections” will be the Democratic Party primaries. This already happened in California many years ago, following the 1986 amnesty.

The only thing holding California back from extreme socialism and suffocating government policies is that people can leave California and still remain in America. Once the whole country is controlled by one party, there will be no escape.

Everywhere in America will be like the nightmare that is downtown San Francisco.

When I think of this scenario, I can only ask myself, "Why do the Democrats and far left nutjobs hate America so much?" I mean, everything they've obtained in life up until this point was due to the fact that America was NOT the country they're trying so hard to create. Knowing that, how the heck can they be so against it? Has the insatiable need for power corrupted their minds that they can no longer think like rational people? //

The idea can't be to continue the status quo, trading power back and forth every 4 years and hoping they don't steal the election.

If Trump wins, the next four years need to be dedicated to fixing the mess and dismantling their machine. Voter ID, paper ballots, same day voting for starters.

But we also need to expose what the Democrat party and media really is. Expose their corruption, past and present crimes, so that by the time the mid terms and next presidential cycle rolls around the party is in ruins.

Trump needs to declassify a LOT of their dirt. Show the public the true extent of their evil and destroy the Dem/MSM machine and make them so toxic that no company wants their name associated with the "D" brand. //

No Doubt. It's been telegraphed since Obama. Much of it under the radar of the "standing" government. As Obama built his deep state network. Hillary would have sealed the deal in 2016 but for DJT. They had fixes in, for sure. They did not, however, anticipate we the people to vote overwhelmingly for DJT, even the polls lied to them. Then in 2020, they saw the popularity of him, knew they would lose to him again, so they manipulated everything they could, including changing voter laws and gerrymandering, mail tampering, ballot stuffing, tampering with the courts, we all know it and they do too...
I liken it to the scene in The Hunt for Red October, when the crew is off and Ramius surrenders the RO to Capt. Mancuso. Then a torpedo swims by, realizing it was Russian, they assume battle stations. The next "fish" is launched and Ramius turns into the torpedo. The torpedo breaks over the hull as it didn't arm in the shorter distance. That was the Dems in 2016. Hillary was the torpedo and DJT was the Red October. The Dems did what the attacking Russian sub commander did for his second attack, removed all the "safeties", so it armed as soon as it launched. Same thing with everything the Dems did, so there was no way for DJT to win in 2020. The steal was in, regardless of the votes, the ballots, the machines, the internet, the water leaks, the obstruction of observers, the stop/start counts at midnight, the dead, the illegals; everything plus the kitchen sink was thrown in to ensure a Biden-Harris victory, even as weak a ticket as they were, it ensured the Dems had another 4 years to get back on track after the DJT hiccup between 2016-2020.
This whole administration has been by design, even the disenfranchising of the 14 million that voted for Biden in the DNC primary. They do not care; it is power and a national and global initiative to maintain it. That's all.

Mr. Musk is right, we must get DJT back in the White House and get to work.

Questions raised about Dominion voting machines finally got the best form of sunlight today – sworn testimony in open court subject to cross-examination.

Election security experts Clay Parikh and Ben Cotton testified in Fulton County (Atlanta) Superior Court today. They testified that they were able to identify the master encryption passwords stored in plain text and unsecured on the databases housed in Dominion voting machines. They further testified that basic security protocols call for these passwords to be kept separate and secret so that only authorized persons can access them.

This information was turned over to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in March 2024 at the latest, according to the lawyers at the hearing.

The allegations, if true, are explosive and have deep ramifications going back years. //

But surely Georgia, with its Republican Governor Brian Kemp and Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, would provide us with reassurances that this is not the case or that they are seeking to make sure it is not the case?

Instead, lawyers for Raffensperger came into court fighting the issuance of an order to ensure that this is not the case. And instead of fighting it with facts disproving the allegations, Raffensperger is relying on non-factual defenses.

The plaintiffs filed this case too late, he says. They filed in the wrong court, he says. They lack standing, he says.

Nowhere does he say, “It is not true that the master key is contained in plain sight on the machines' databases.” //

I suspect this comes down to $$$.

The state wants to claim the voting machines are a good value for the taxpayers. That the government officials involved made good decisions.

If the voting machines are suspect, then what? Does the state have a backup plan in place? I'm guessing that's a hard "no", and any alternative to the machines is going to cost big $$$.

So the arguments in court are a CYA move. I think the judge sees that, but he acts like a politician often, so maybe he plays ball with the state to keep his own options open for future advancement. //

More of the same. None of these cases has actually made it to trial. They've all been dismissed on technicalities, many because the people whose votes were potentially stolen or diluted lacked "standing" to file them. Never has a case actually reached the evidence and testimony stage. Not once. And that's not a coincidence, either.

Whatever happens--and I am extremely skeptical that any case will ever make it trial, because that would threaten the whole house of cards by which the current corrupt system keeps power--Rafffensperger needs to go. I'd prefer gently into that good night, but I'd settle for him never holding office as a so-called Republican again.

Hurricane Helene brought massive rainfalls and flooding at unprecedented levels, and from northern Georgia to the Southern Appalachians, to Western North Carolina, and parts of Eastern Tennessee, roads have been washed away, entire cities have been leveled, and populations devastated.

But had it not been for concerned citizens and loved ones, and some citizen journalists posting on X, the rest of the country would have been left in the dark. Up until this morning, the legacy media has all but ignored the destruction and never questioned when the worst of the weather started on Friday, why President Joe Biden was sunning himself at Rehoboth Beach, DE or why Vice President and selected Democrat nominee Kamala Harris was schmoozing with her donors in California, all while people lost their homes, their communities, and their lives.

From some reports on Sunday, despite federal emergency declarations being issued, FEMA had not even been activated. //

As former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich observed, the scale of the disaster is too massive for the slow-moving FEMA. //

What most comes to the fore is how ineffective and inefficient the federal government is, and how essential and ingenious the local community is. This is what the fabric of America is comprised of, and despite the incessant meddling by this government to try and tear that fabric apart, we remain strong and even more bonded. We are going to be who we are, and the hell they wish to unleash in communities and electorally cannot change that.

You still don't get it: they have NO INTEREST IN "Curbing Crime". Zero, Zilch, ZIp, Nada, Nil, Nul.

I don't know how I can make that statement more plain, nor convincing.. They don't SUFFER the crime, and it keeps their base cowed and agitated. Gullible fools cry to their overlords and vote for them and their legislation.

California’s “deepfake” law shows, once again, that progressive authoritarians seek to ruin everything fun.

Gov. Gavin Newsom and the state’s legislature recently went full Karen and passed a law banning political deepfakes and placing restrictions on satire. Now, one of the nation’s leading satirical outlets is fighting back.

The Babylon Bee and the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) filed a lawsuit against the state of California on Monday, challenging new laws that the satire site claims target political parody and free speech, according to a Daily Wire exclusive.

Over time, I've found myself agreeing with Taibbi and his co-host Walter Kirn more often than not. We may not share the exact same politics, but we share a whole lot of the same values. I've also come to appreciate Taibbi's earnest belief in America's foundational principles and his almost endearing disbelief at the current state of his chosen profession. //

Because “freedom of speech” is now frequently described as a stalking horse for hate and discrimination — the UN High Commissioner Volker Türk scolded Elon Musk that “free speech is not a free pass” — it’s becoming one of those soon-to-be-extinct terms. Speech is mentioned in “reputable” media only as a possible vector for the informational disease known as misinformation.

The end game is not controlling speech. They’re already doing that. The endgame is getting us to forget we ever had anything to say.
....

Let's be clear about our language. Madison famously eschewed the word toleration or tolerance when it came to religion and insisted on the words freedom or liberty instead. This became the basis for the Virginia Declaration of Rights, which in turn became the basis for the Bill of Rights. That's why we don't have “toleration of religion” or “toleration of speech.” We have freedom of speech. The right word for the right time.

To the people who are suggesting that there are voices who should be ignored because they're encouraging mistrust or skepticism of authority, or obstructing consensus: I'm not encouraging you to be skeptical of authority. I'm encouraging you to DEFY authority. That is the right word for the this time. //

In this speech, Taibbi hit all the right notes, with a nod to our history, the history of free speech, the Gospel of John and the power of words — and the Word. He captured the spirit of what it means to be quintessentially American — to be free. //

I don't think many Americans appreciate this danger. In banana republics, politicians, judges and lawyers are often murdered with impunity. Politicians, judges and lawyers are, for better or worse, the foundation of our Republic. Mass illegal immigration is bringing not the best of foreign cultures to our shores, but the worst of abuses of civil society. That's what Harris is promising to give more of--a world in which lawyers, judges and politicians, or the doctor who misdiagnoses your cancer, or the priest who opposes abortion, or the store keeper who didn't give you your change fast enough, is a bona fide target. For all of us lawyers who came under threat during the covid hoax for challenging government policy, this is just plain unbelievable. Lawyers having to carry guns? Lawyers having to give instructions to their spouses about what to do if they disappear on the way home from work? this is America? And that's why this story is not funny and needs to be seriously considered.

The erosion of the rule of law was the goal of the Marxists. Thank all of your Soros-backed cohort for making the law as ugly and meaningless as possible.

Kamala Harris told the media she was going to try to troll former President Donald Trump at the Alabama-Georgia game on Saturday.

But the effort failed miserably and just showed how desperate she was.

Her campaign told the media that they were going to have a small plane fly over Tuscaloosa during the game at Bryant-Denny Stadium with a banner that said, “Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate.” //

Except it didn't come off; it was a complete failure. It was nowhere to be seen during the game.

According to the New York Times, they were told by the Harris campaign that they couldn't do it because of "weather."

It was typical Kamala — all talk and no result. //

Harris just made herself look silly and desperate. She probably couldn't get all of her ridiculous word salad on a banner. If you're winning, you don't have to play such games to try to get attention.

Then too, she failed to understand the people to whom she was trying to appeal, much as she fails to understand most Americans.

Instead, Trump was wildly cheered when he was introduced at the game.

there was a funny catfight between two people who are election prognosticators, Professor Allan Lichtman and Nate Silver.

Lichtman has a system where he applies true or false questions to 13 questions. if there are six or more false answers, the challenger -- in this case, former President Donald Trump -- would win. But Lichtman has interpreted his keys and he's predicting Kamala Harris will win. //

They were so intent on trolling Vance, they didn't get that they were suggesting that it was in fact political and throwing the restaurant under the bus. Plus, it was silly because it also brought back up the real story from that visit in August.

"The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office projects that deficit spending for fiscal 2024 will reach a staggering $1.9 trillion. This comes on top of the $7 trillion added to the federal debt under Biden, bringing us to the highest level of indebtedness in our nation’s history, surpassing the previous high during World War II.

"Biden’s insatiable deficit spending has not only lit the fuse on record inflation but has resulted in the highest interest rate hikes in a quarter century. The cost just to service our national debt has increased by $540 billion, or 153%, since Biden took office. Those net interest expenses represented 9% of federal revenue in 2021 and are projected to double to 18% in 2024 and rise to 23% in 2034.

"Massive federal spending along with failed economic policies under unified Democratic control of government caused inflation to climb to 9.1% in June 2022. Inflation is still sticking at levels well above the Federal Reserve’s target for reducing interest rates.

"In total, prices have risen nearly 20% since Biden became president, forcing families to pay more than $17,000 more per year, or $1,400 per month, for the same goods and services. Sadly, inflation has grown faster than income over the last three years, reducing real wages by 4% since January 2021."

For year two, the price doubles, and it doubles again for year three. The blog post doesn't do the math on those, probably because the total is uncomfortably high. A three-year ESU subscription will cost $61 + $122 + $244, for a total of $427.

Heard Dean: “We have to change [our Constitution]. Our foundational electoral system was affected very much by slavery. This was an effort by the small states, & the slave states to make sure they didn’t lose their influence.”

9:22 AM · Sep 28, 2024 //

Dean, saying the electoral system "was affected... by slavery" is a canard. He is, of course, referring to the infamous 3/5 compromise, which was adopted to prevent the slave-holding states from having an outsized representation by including bondsmen in the tally for the basis of apportionment. That argument has made zero sense since 1865.
Yes, there is an effort by the small states to make sure we don't lose our influence. Most of the country doesn't want to be ruled by Boston, New York, Chicago, and the liberal areas of California. That's why our electoral system works the way it does; that's why the Senate works the way it does, with every state, no matter how small or large, having the same representation. That is anti-democratic by design. That is why the United States is not a democracy. We never were a democracy. We never will be a democracy. //

She finally sat down to take (but not answer) questions, first with CNN and now MSNBC. While we didn't learn much about her policy positions, the American people learned an awful lot about how much of a vapid, empty suit she actually is.

The more she does these things, the more people are going to realize that, which is why she doesn't want to do them.

But she's in a Catch-22 at this point. The more she continues to resist the pressure that is put on her by non-Fox News outlets to put some answers on the record, the worse she's going to look in the eyes of voters who want to know more but who aren't being given the opportunity thanks to her media avoidance strategy, which is still largely in place.
