Former Israeli PM warns Americans that new Iran nuclear deal formed under Biden is 'even worse than its predecessor' - TheBlaze

Former Israeli PM warns Americans that new Iran nuclear deal formed under Biden is 'even worse than its predecessor' - TheBlaze

Netanyahu, a staunch supporter of the U.S., said the new deal negotiated under Biden "is even worse than its predecessor because in three years' time, under this agreement, Iran will be a threshold nuclear state. It will have enough enriched uranium to create dozens and dozens of nuclear bombs and it will have the ICBMs to deliver them to any place in the United States," he warned. "That is ... unbelievable. It's not merely unacceptable, it endangers not only my country, Israel, but your country, the United States, and the entire world," Netanyahu continued. "We should not let an aggressive, rogue, terrorist regime like Iran have nuclear weapons."

The Problem With That “Russia Sought Military Aid From China” Story

The Problem With That “Russia Sought Military Aid From China” Story

"I found the news story that Russia sought military aid from China for its bogged down invasion of Ukraine pretty interesting.

Until I dug a little deeper.

Russia has turned to China for military equipment and aid in the weeks since it began its invasion of Ukraine, U.S. officials familiar with the matter told The Washington Post.

The officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity...

  • Do you see the problem? It’s right there in the first sentence...

“Officials familiar with the matter.”

Remember that phrase?

Remember that phrase (and similar ones) a lot from those endless “sources say” hit pieces on President Trump that turned out to be complete garbage made up out of whole cloth?

Because of that, we can never take anonymously sourced pieces that promotes the latest Democratic Media Complex line at face value ever again. How can we be sure you’re not making things up again?

We can’t...Read all!!

Alleged 'criminal tourism' brings burglars to US from South America | The National Desk
"SAN FRANCISCO (TND) — A neighborhood alert sent to residents of a community in the Bay Area reportedly warned of sophisticated burglary crews arriving from South America.

The news has some residents in Hillsborough, California on high alert.

Crimes committed by SATGs have been investigated in the Bay Area since 2018, the local outlet indicated.

The Prince of Darkness - Bill's Weekly Column - Bill O'Reilly

As you may know, but most Americans don't, George Soros is a driving force behind electing far-left prosecutors. He champions their insane soft on crime policies like "no bail" laws and failure to enforce criminal statutes at all.  If you follow the news, the situation is dire. Thousands of Americans have been killed in cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philadelphia because violent criminals are often not prosecuted by corrupt DA's - many of whom received significant campaign donations from the Soros organizations.  So, while the radical leftist is railing against violent foreign leaders, his cash is fueling dangerous American streets. Whether it's open borders, massive intrusions from homeless drug addicts, demonizing the police, or a permissive view of narcotics, George Soros and his heavy wallet are on board the pain train.

Syracuse U. information portal makes ‘gender-expansive’ students feel ‘unseen
  • Syracuse University’s information portal has left “gender-expansive” and transgender students feeling “unseen” due to its limits on personal pronouns.
"According to The Daily Orange, the MySlice portal offers a mere six pronoun options: “she/her, he/him, they/them, ze/hir, ‘use my name’ and ‘ask me.'”

Energy pro annihilates Democrats causing high gas prices - TheBlaze

Despite what the Biden administration would have you believe, Daily explained that the blame for what's going on truly does rest with Biden and Democrats, not Russia. While Donald Trump directed his administration to invest in American energy as much as possible, Biden's administration is using ESG scores to dissuade anyone from investing in oil and gas, becoming a perfect example of how liberal politics negatively affects the everyday person. Daily also warned against falling for what media and the government spew in their attempt to hype up the fear in Americans over issues, especially during a time of crisis.

"Trust us", they say. Otherwise you're a denier!


 

Yes, there IS a BIG difference between the democrat and republican parties!-----AS IF: Poll Claims Americans WANT Elementary Schoolers Taught About 'Sexual Orientation' and 'Gender Identity'

AS IF: Poll Claims Americans WANT Elementary Schoolers Taught About 'Sexual Orientation' and 'Gender Identity'
"According to a hysterical new ABC News/Ipsos “poll,” Americans are delighted when very young children are instructed about Leftist fetish topics like “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” in school.
...With Florida poised to pass the Parental Rights in Education law and other states teeing up similar measures, Leftists are beginning to realize that voters are revolting against the stifling fog of indoctrination with which they’ve been enveloping innocent tots.
  • ...Big Left is now marshaling its kulturpustch legions to try to put down the rebellion.
  • The news will soon be filled with sob stories about “transgender” children who will be irrevocably damaged by a return to sanity and neutrality in the classroom. 
  • “Experts” and “scientists” will lecture you on how, if you don’t think “transgender” five-year-olds are the absolute aces, they’ll kill themselves and it will be all your fault!!!
  •  And of course, polls will be conducted that show Americans overwhelmingly love it when your tax dollars pay lunatics to relieve your child of the archaic notion that objective reality is a thing.

Hypnotic switch.

Research seeks to eradicate ‘whiteness’ from the realm of physics education

Research seeks to eradicate ‘whiteness’ from the realm of physics education
"A recent study asserts that, among other things, the small number of physics degrees awarded to black students at all levels is due to the continuance of white supremacy.
In “Observing whiteness in introductory physics: A case study,” Seattle Pacific University’s Amy Robertson and “noted speaker, consultant, researcher, minister, and lecturer” W. Tali Hairston make use of critical whiteness studies and critical race theory to claim that since a mere 3 percent of black students ages 20-24 get undergraduate physics degrees (and 1.8 percent of doctorates), whiteness “is shaping degree granting (and all of the processes and practices therein) in physics.”
(With this alleged omnipresence of whiteness, Caucasians in the 20-24 age group, who make up 73 percent of the country, get 72 and 75 percent of physics degrees respectively. Oddly, a rather proportionate representation.)...Read all.
