‘Chilling Stuff’: Warning Sounded for Once-Unthinkable Concept of U.S. Holocaust

/2 Comments/in , , /by

A prominent Washington editor has taken to his own publication’s pages to issue a warning about an American Holocaust.

What once was unthinkable now still remains remote, but the circumstances that create a danger cannot be ignored, according to Hugo Gurdon, editor-in-chief of the Washington Examiner.

He cites an author’s speculation that given some horrific national disaster, Americans, already triggered by racist rhetoric, could turn bad.

“It is chilling stuff, partly because the subject is so inherently ghastly but also because radical changes in the U.S. since the 1980s make it a country lamentably unrecognizable to many of its citizens,” Gurdon wrote. “God forbid that a Holocaust of Jews is likely in America either soon or ever. But the circumstances that made it virtually inconceivable in the 1980s are now maintained much more precariously.

“A Jewish friend, as level-headed an analyst as you could hope for, told me, ‘I never worried until this year, but now I can visualize it happening, the course of events. It’s part of my worry about America and the crazy Left. Jews are moving to the Right,'” he continued.

Democrats Pass Bill Offering Up to $150K in Assistance for Illegals to Buy Homes

/0 Comments/in , /by

Illegal immigrants in California could soon be eligible for tens of thousands of dollars in down payment assistance under a new law sent to Gov. Gavin Newsom.

On Wednesday, Democrats in the state legislature passed Assembly Bill 1840 requiring the California Housing Finance Authority’s “Dream for All Program,” which provides residents financial assistance to purchase homes, to consider applications from illegal immigrants. The program offers first-time homebuyers loan assistance of up to 20 percent of a property’s value with a cap of $150,000. Buyers then pay back the loan plus up to 20 percent of any property appreciation depending on income.

Lawmakers passed the changes to the program to include illegal immigrants along party lines Wednesday night.

California Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher slammed the bill in a statement.

“I didn’t know it was possible to make the border crisis and the housing crisis worse with just one vote,” the assembly leader said. “But Democrats found a way. Giving taxpayer-funded housing subsidies to illegal immigrants will drive costs even higher and encourage more chaos at the border. This is crazy and it needs to stop.” (Read more from “Democrats Pass Bill Offering Up to $150K in Assistance for Illegals to Buy Homes” HERE)

Harris Campaign Confirms VP Reversed Prior Positions on Immigration

/2 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris is under fire for flip-flopping on her immigration position just two months before the November election as polls reveal immigration is the voter’s top concern.

Harris has been weak on the southern border since day one of President Joe Biden’s term, refusing to visit border towns or stop illegal immigrants from unlawfully entering the U.S. However, just months before the 2024 election, suddenly, she embraced a crackdown on the issue.

Her past positions include decriminalizing illegal crossings, promising to close Immigration Customs and Protection (ICE) detention centers, and saying that ICE should be abolished or “started from scratch” have all come back to haunt Harris, forcing her to change her views. In a statement confirmed to Fox News, the vice president has reversed course and now believes that “unauthorized border crossings are illegal.”

Even more progressive than Biden, Harris has shifted her positions to align with the president’s and signaled her support for a bipartisan bill that would increase funding for border security and ICE.

“[Harris will continue] to ensure sufficient resources to enforce our laws and prioritize detention and removal for individuals who pose threats to public safety and national security, as well as ensure compliance with immigration proceedings and decisions, including removal,” the Harris campaign said.

‘She Ain’t Made for This’: Harris Aides, White House Staffers Vilify Her in Expository Book

/0 Comments/in , /by

A book written by progressives, about progressives, blasted Kamala Harris at a time when political observers speculated whether she would be replaced as Joe Biden’s vice president. In it, White House aides outlined Harris’s inability to define a political agenda and her total reliance on personality.

Now, with Harris in a tight race for the presidency with Donald Trump, the book has been resurfaced eight months after its release.

As recently as the summer of 2023, a cavalcade of Democratic party superstars like California Gov. Gavin Newsom were brandishing their leadership credentials as calls grew for Biden to step aside. Once that time passed, the left-wing whisper machine turned on Harris and her historically abysmal favorability numbers.

Enter “The Truce: Progressives, Centrists, and the Future of the Democratic Party,” which dropped in January. That was just enough time for the left to replace Kamala Harris and, one would think, supplied them with enough ammunition to do it.

“It was rotten from the start,” a top aide from her 2020 campaign noted. “A lot of us, at least folks that I was friends with on the campaign, all realized that: ‘Yeah, this person should not be president of the United States,’ the aide told the authors.

Inspector General Audit: FBI Mishandled 13 Percent of Child Sex Crime Cases From 2021-2023

/1 Comment/in , /by

The FBI has mishandled a minimum of dozens of child sex crime cases between October 2021 and February 2023, the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Office of the Inspector General (OIG) said in an audit report released Thursday.

Following allegations that the FBI failed to conduct an adequate investigation into the crimes of former Team USA women’s gymnastics physician Lawrence Nassar — leading to the DOJ settling with the victims for $138.7 million — the OIG began auditing to see how poorly the bureau was handling child sex abuse complaints.

Out of 3,925 cases opened by the FBI between October 1, 2021, and February 26, 2023, allegedly involving “a hands-on sex offense against a child or similar offense,” the OIG reviewed 327 incidents as part of its audit.

Out of those incidents, 42 — 13 percent — were flagged for further FBI review because the inspectors “believed the incident may require immediate attention.”

“Concerns that led us to flag incidents included a lack of recent investigative activity, lack of logical investigative steps, not reporting suspected child abuse to appropriate agencies, leads that were not appropriately covered, and instances of substantial non-compliance with FBI policies,” the report stated.

‘The Polls Are Rigged’: Trump Gives Mixed Messages on Polling in Race Against Harris

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump has given conflicting statements on the validity of recent polling in the 2024 race against Vice President Kamala Harris.

At a campaign rally Thursday afternoon in Potterville, Michigan, Trump first claimed that he was doing well in presidential polls before casting doubt on their accuracy.

“Every time they see me going up in the polls, and we’re leading in the polls, and I think we’re leading by a lot. You know, the polls, the polls are rigged too,” Trump told the crowd of supporters. . .

Hours later, during a town hall with former Democratic Hawaii congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard in Wisconsin, Trump bragged about beating Harris in polling.

“The polls have us up here. We’re up in this — we’re up in states, but it’s close. It’s close,” Trump said. “And, you know, they cheat like hell. So we don’t want to have it too close … because we have to get — we have to win this.” (Read more from “‘The Polls Are Rigged’: Trump Gives Mixed Messages on Polling in Race Against Harris” HERE)

Woman Allegedly Molested 13-Year-Old Girl She Met While Attending Church, Police Say

/0 Comments/in , /by

Missouri police say they arrested a 25-year-old woman for sexually molesting a 13-year-old girl she met while attending a church.

St. Louis County Police said they were alerted to the alleged abuse by the victim’s mother, who went to police after reading her daughter’s diary.

Police identified the suspect as Brandi James and held her at the county justice center on a bond of $300,000. She is charged with one count of child molestation and two counts of statutory sodomy or attempted statutory sodomy.

An investigation produced cellphone messages that allegedly support police allegations that James had engaged in sodomy with the child at least two times. The victim reportedly spoke to police about the incidents.

Police believe that James met the child while they both attended the House of Deliverance church in Bridgeton. (Read more from “Woman Allegedly Molested 13-Year-Old Girl She Met While Attending Church, Police Say” HERE)

Zelensky Demands Using U.S. Weapons on Targets in Russia

/0 Comments/in , /by

The war in Ukraine continues to rage on two-and-a-half years after Russian forces breached their neighbor’s borders. The protraction of the conflict has only made a Russian victory—through a favorable settlement or Ukrainian surrender—more likely, though it will come at a much higher cost to the Russians than originally anticipated by both Moscow and Washington. The simple truth is that Russia has more men, more resources, and is not reliant on the goodwill of Western benefactors.

While continued aid from the United States keeps the Ukrainian war effort afloat, that aid has come with certain strings attached. U.S. weapons given to Ukraine, for example, cannot be used to strike targets within Russian territory.

Whether Ukraine has upheld its end of the bargain is unlikely. Ukraine has privately received permission from President Joe Biden to use U.S. weapons in strikes on Russia in the past. Now, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is looking to negotiate, not with Russia but with the United States and other benefactors, to permanently loosen those restraints.

While Zelenskyy has made a habit of making this request, he did so again fervently on Monday after Russia launched one of its largest drone and missile strikes of the campaign so far.

In a video statement posted to X on Monday, Zelenskyy said the Russian strike “involv[ed] over a hundred missiles of various types and around a hundred ‘Shaheds’ [attack drones].”

Revealed: The Disturbing Truth Kamala Harris Does Not Want You Knowing About Her Reign as Border Czar

/0 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris has played a vital role in what is unquestionably the worst border crisis in American history. Over the past four years of the Biden-Harris administration, millions of “undocumented” illegal aliens have poured over the southern border, and this disaster promises to grow much larger if Harris is able to pull out a win over former President Donald Trump in November’s election.

Although numbers vary, it is estimated there could be upward of 10 million illegal aliens who have made their way across the border since January 2021. That crisis, in turn, has precipitated a flood of criminal activities. Human smuggling and trafficking, sex trafficking, drug trafficking and gun running are rampant. . .

NBC News further reported crossings at the southern border had hit a 21–year high, with over 188,000 border crossers reported just in June of 2021. Approximately 105,000 were sent back to Mexico using a Trump-era Centers for Disease Control and Prevention authority called Title 42. Around 8% of undocumented migrants crossing into the U.S. in March 2021 had been children, a number that increased in June. But children were not subject to expulsions under Title 42, and were instead sheltered within the U.S., and paired with a sponsor. . .

Migrant encounters have continued to break records year–over–year, as the Biden administration undoes all of the Trump-era policies. To change the subject, the media, alongside the administration, have wildly propagandized incidents at the border between Border Patrol and illegal aliens.

For example, Harris pushed a totally false narrative about Border Patrol agents in the Del Rio Sector whipping undocumented migrants from Haiti to push them back.

Biden’s Afghanistan: Taliban Bans MMA

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Taliban terrorist organization ruling Afghanistan confirmed on Wednesday that it had formally banned mixed martial arts (MMA), a sport that began thriving in the country in the final years before the fall of Kabul in 2021.

The edict banning MMA followed the publication of an extensive decree last week by the Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice listing a host of new prohibitions on the private lives of Afghans. The decree officially banned women from showing their faces or using their voices in public and mandated beards and “Islamic” haircuts on men, among other restrictions.

MMA was a nascent sport in Afghanistan when, following the disastrous decision by leftist American President Joe Biden to extend the 20-year Afghan War beyond an agreed-upon May 2021 deadline, the Taliban seized control of Kabul and the Afghan federal government. The Taliban has remained the uncontested ruling power in Afghanistan since, although it has not received formal recognition as such from any other country nor from the United Nations.

The Agence France-Presse (AFP) confirmed the MMA ban with Taliban officials on Wednesday.

“It was found that the sport is problematic with respect to sharia and it has many aspects which are contradictory to the teachings of Islam,” the Taliban’s sports agency said in a statement. “That’s why this decision has been made to ban mixed martial arts in Afghanistan.” (Read more from “Biden’s Afghanistan: Taliban Bans MMA” HERE)
