Watch and Learn: This Potential Pro-Trump Juror Shows Exactly Why Conservatives Always Lose… (VIDEO)

/12 Comments/in , , /by

People on the right often ask, “Why do we keep losing?” That’s a loaded question with many layers to it, so much so that we could spend all day unpacking the reasons. But to simplify things, we’ve found a video clip that perfectly captures why conservatives lose. It zeroes in on the current Trump show trial in New York City. Here, the former president is battling to get a fair trial in the liberal-run chaos of Manhattan. It’s a clear, concise example that shows just how steep the hill we have to climb really is and how we constantly shoot ourselves in the foot, thanks to misguided conservative virtue.

In this clip, you’ll see a woman who, at first glance, seems like she’d be the perfect juror for Trump. She appeared favorable to him but declined to serve because she didn’t think she could be impartial. Many conservatives might see this and think, “That’s just us doing the right, constitutional thing.” But that’s where we’re missing the mark. In this ongoing battle with the left, simply playing by the rules isn’t going to cut it. We keep getting knocked down because the left isn’t playing the same game. They aren’t concerned with rules or the Constitution; they’re focused on crushing their enemies and winning at all costs, and it’s working.

Does this mean we need to throw out all the rules and become lawless like them? Not exactly, but we need to recognize that we’re in a war. Playing on an “invisible high road” just to feel virtuous in front of the camera isn’t helping us win. While we preach about morality, left-wing activist judges and jurors are steamrolling over us and the principles our country stands for.

This woman is what you’d call a principled young lady, and she’s a perfect example of why we lose. This is the principled defeat we always hear about. She’s probably very nice and conscientious, but in this case, she’s totally and completely wrong. Watch the above clip, study it, and understand why—even well-meaning and ethical behavior can lead us to defeat if we’re not careful about the bigger picture and who exactly we’re battling.

Comedian Says Dave Chapelle Was “Visited” to Have His Views ‘Corrected’

/2 Comments/in , , /by

Comedian Jim Breuer claims that Dave Chapelle told him he was once “visited” by an unnamed elite group of people and told to ‘correct’ his views.

Breuer made the remarks during an appearance on the Rosanne Barr podcast.

The apparent visit took place in 2005 after Chapelle’s TV show became highly popular and before the comedian ‘disappeared’ to Africa.

Breuer claims Chapelle spoke to him during the Aspen Comedy Festival and was “freaked out.”

“And all I can say is he was visited,” said Breuer. “And when he told me who visited him, my heart stops for a second, I’m like get the f**k (out of here).” (Read more from “Comedian Says Dave Chapelle Was “Visited” to Have His Views ‘Corrected’” HERE)

NATO Leaders Making Tracks to Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump has yet to be named the GOP nominee for president for the fall election. And then there’s the campaigning, debates if Democrats allow the “diminished” Joe Biden to participate, and the election.

But a number of NATO leaders believe they know what will happen: they’re making tracks to Trump.

“These leaders are anticipating that Trump’s gonna win,” Kurt Volker, a former ambassador to NATO, told the Washington Examiner.

“And so, they also want to reestablish relationships.” He also said there’s a lot of concern among European leaders about Biden’s failure so far to orchestrate more American support for Ukraine, which is fighting a war against an invading Russia.

The most recent visitor, the report explained, was Polish President Andrzej Duda, who “joined the list of foreign leaders beating a path to Donald Trump’s door this week.” (Read more from “NATO Leaders Making Tracks to Trump” HERE)

Biden Administration to Withdraw U.S. Forces from Niger

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s administration faced a setback on the global stage this week as reports emerged indicating the United States is preparing to withdraw its forces from Niger and abandon key military bases in the region.

The decision to pull out approximately a thousand American troops from Niger marks a significant shift in U.S. counterterrorism efforts and security policy in the politically volatile Sahel region of Africa. Stretching across the northern central part of the continent, the Sahel encompasses a vast expanse of territory, including countries such as Senegal, Gambia, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, and others. It is known for its instability and serves as a breeding ground for various major Islamic terrorist groups, including ISIS and Al-Qaeda.

According to The New York Times, the Biden administration has opted to withdraw troops in the wake of Niger’s democratically elected government being ousted by its own military. This development underscores broader trends in the region, with countries increasingly turning away from Western alliances and forging closer ties with other global powers.

Niger’s pivot towards Russia has been particularly notable, with the country receiving military support and personnel from Moscow’s paramilitary forces. Furthermore, there are indications that Niger is exploring potential agreements with Iran regarding its uranium reserves, while also deepening economic cooperation with China.

For the United States, Niger held strategic importance due to its geographic location, which facilitated critical counterterrorism operations in the region.

Whistleblower: Gender Patients Begged to ‘Have Body Parts Put back On’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By WND. . .[S]ome of the of the worst atrocities just now are coming to light, including the testimony from a whistleblower that patients of a children’s gender clinic were “begging to have body parts put back on.”

It is Fox News that reported on the comments from a children’s gender clinic whistleblower who appeared on a daytime television talk show.

The whistleblower, Jamie Reed, who used to work at the Washington University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children’s Hospital, wrote an expose last year calling such treatments “morally and medically appalling.” . . .

“A number of things. We started to see patients who were experiencing very significant medical harms being rushed to the emergency room with lacerations requiring stitches. We had patients contact us who were begging to have body parts put back on within months of having surgeries.”

She continued, “The thing that kept happening is every time I would raise concerns and ask about the protocols and ask about the guidelines – this is just how the industry works, if a child says they’re trans there’s no questioning it. We just say, ‘Yep, you’re trans, what would you like?'” (Read more from “Whistleblower: Gender Patients Begged to ‘Have Body Parts Put back On’” HERE)

Kids’ gender clinic whistleblower tells Dr. Phil regretful patients begged to ‘have body parts put back on’

By Fox News. A children’s gender clinic whistleblower on Thursday claimed to Dr. Phil that she saw regretful patients ask to have their removed body parts restored after operations. . .

Reed said that kids identifying as transgender has become 10 times more common and they are overwhelmingly young teenage women who wish to become men.

Girls, she argued, tend to be very attuned to the trends in their environment, particularly on social media and in their peer groups, to the point where girls in the same class would come in clusters all requesting procedures at the same time.

“They would come in, and they would almost have the exact same storyline, too, like they learned what to say from a video to explain, ‘Oh, no, really, I’ve felt this way from early childhood,’ but a lot of their parents couldn’t remember anything like that,” said Reed. . .

“I saw a young person who was begging to have their breasts put back on after having surgery. We were encouraged not to make a big deal out of it and definitely not to tell other families. I couldn’t continue to be silent on it,” she added about detransitioners.

U.S. Vetoes UN Resolution for Gaza to Be Recognized as State

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States vetoed a United Nations Security Council resolution to recognize Gaza as a state.

The 15-member council voted Thursday on a draft of a resolution that would recommend that the 193-member U.N. General Assembly recognize Gaza as a state and admit Gaza to the U.N. Twelve nations voted in favor of the resolution, two nations abstained, and one, the United States, voted against.

“It remains the U.S. view that the most expeditious path toward statehood for the Palestinian people is through direct negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority with the support of the United States and other partners,” State Department spokesman Vedant Patel said during a news briefing.

He added that a U.N. resolution would not achieve statehood for Gaza as it intends.

The U.N. Security Council needs nine votes for a resolution to pass, unless one permanent member of the council, such as the U.S., votes against it and it is immediately abandoned. (Read more from “U.S. Vetoes UN Resolution for Gaza to Be Recognized as State” HERE)

A near collision between two aircraft was avoided earlier Thursday at Washington, D.C.’s Reagan National Airport.

JetBlue and Southwest Airlines airplanes avoided each other by only 400 feet. Air traffic control recordings show controllers yelling at the JetBlue flight to stop its takeoff as the Southwest flight began taxiing on the runway.

“JetBlue 1554, stop! 1554, stop!” the tower controller said.

“2937, stop!” the ground controller said. (Read more from “Two Planes Nearly Collide at DC’s Reagan National Airport” HERE)

Wray Warns China Getting Positioned to Attack American Infrastructure’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The chief of the FBI is warning that China already has “burrowed” into critical infrastructure in the United States and now is just waiting for “the right moment to deal a devastating blow.”

The FBI’s Christopher Wray said in a Reuters report that an ongoing hacking campaign, known already as Volt Typhoon, has gained access to American telecommunications, energy, water and other companies, including pipeline operators.

Wray charged China is assembling the “ability to physically wreak havoc on our critical infrastructure at a time of its choosing. … Its plan is to land low blows against civilian infrastructure to try to induce panic.”

The report explained, “Wray said it was difficult to determine the intent of this cyber pre-positioning which was aligned with China’s broader intent to deter the U.S. from defending Taiwan.”

That is a fast-developing conflict that has the potential to draw the United States into a fight on the other side of the globe. China claims it owns Taiwan, while Taiwan says its own people will decide their future. (Read more from “Wray Warns China Getting Positioned to Attack American Infrastructure’” HERE)

New York Supreme Court Justice Dismisses Trump Juror Amid Concerns Over Public Identity

/0 Comments/in , /by

New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan made an unexpected decision on Thursday, dismissing a previously approved juror from Donald Trump’s criminal trial after she expressed worries about her identity being revealed to the public, as court reporters disclosed.

Court reporters had initially published descriptions of the jurors after Judge Merchan seated seven of them following the selection process, during which potential jurors are subjected to 42 questions and scrutiny of their social media accounts. The New York Times reported on the incident, highlighting the challenges in selecting a jury for the trial of the polarizing former president:

The dismissed juror conveyed her concerns about potential public exposure to Judge Merchan, who has maintained the anonymity of prospective jurors but acknowledged that they had divulged information such as their employers during court proceedings.

Following her dismissal, Judge Merchan directed reporters to refrain from divulging the workplaces of prospective jurors, asserting his legal authority to restrict the news media from disclosing such identifying information.

Donald Trump’s unprecedented criminal trial commenced on Monday with the commencement of jury selection, marking the third day of the process on Thursday, with expectations of concluding early next week. The trial necessitates a total of 18 jurors.

Axios provided descriptions of the seven jurors chosen on Tuesday:

1. The foreman, a sales professional residing in Harlem but hailing from Ireland.

2. An oncology nurse and native New Yorker.

3. A corporate lawyer originally from Oregon.

4. A self-employed IT consultant with roots in Puerto Rico, residing on the Lower East Side.

5. A lifelong New Yorker employed as a teacher, who was unaware of Trump’s involvement in three other cases.

6. A software engineer employed by Disney.

7. A lawyer residing on the Upper East Side.
