Biden's Approval Rating with Democrats Takes Double-Digit Hit Over Israel:
President Joe Biden’s most recent poll numbers have been taking a major hit — even among Democrats — as Americans finally begin to turn their attention to the coming 2024 race for the White House. And his actions in Israel are particularly hurting him among his own party.
Biden’s approval number suffered a drastic 11-point drop among Democrat voters in just the last month alone, according to Gallup Polling, Axios reported on Thursday.
America's enemies are funding anti-America groups. Inside the fence!-----Soros funneled $15 M-plus to groups rallying for Hamas
Soros funneled $15 M-plus to groups rallying for Hamas"Far-left billionaire kingmaker George Soros has funneled more than $15 million since 2016 to groups behind this month’s pro-Palestine protests, where demonstrators openly cheered Hamas militants’ craven terrorist attacks on Israel.
A Post examination of Open Society Foundations records shows Soros’ grant-making network gave $13.7 million of the money through Tides Center, a deep-pocketed lefty advocacy group that sponsors several nonprofits who’ve justified Hamas’ bloody attacks while claiming Palestinians obsessed with the eradication of the Jewish state are the real victims...

The Reality of Woke Ideology...
- A lot of people woke up on October 7 as progressives and went to bed that night feeling like conservatives. What changed?
They also shattered long-held delusions in the West...
What changed?
The best way to answer that question is with the help of Thomas Sowell, one of the most brilliant public intellectuals alive today.
What changed?
The best way to answer that question is with the help of Thomas Sowell, one of the most brilliant public intellectuals alive today.
In 1987, Sowell published A Conflict of Visions.
In this now-classic, he offers a simple and powerful explanation of why people disagree about politics. We disagree about politics, Sowell argues, because we disagree about human nature.
We see the world through one of two competing visions, each of which tells a radically different story about human nature.
- Those with “unconstrained vision” think that humans are malleable and can be perfected. They believe that social ills and evils can be overcome through collective action that encourages humans to behave better...We need only to say the right things, enact the right policies, and spend enough money, and we will suffer these social ills no more. This worldview is the foundation of the progressive mindset.
- By contrast, those who see the world through a “constrained vision” lens believe that human nature is a universal constant. No amount of social engineering can change the sober reality of human self-interest, or the fact that human empathy and social resources are necessarily scarce. People who see things this way believe that most political and social problems will never be “solved”; they can only be managed. This approach is the bedrock of the conservative worldview.

- According to the United Nations Environment Programme, excess nitrate in the environment “exacerbates climate change and depletes the ozone layer.”
- Nitrates enter the environment “from the use of synthetic fertilizers, the discharge of wastewater or the combustion of fossil fuels,” according to the UNEP, all of which would obviously be connected with dairy farming.
- Thus, the purported need to reduce the number of cattle per hectare. (A hectare is 10,000 square meters, or about 2.5 acres — just under 12,000 square yards.)

"Just a random thought this morning…
How many of Marilyn Monroe’s problems were really caused by her difficult childhood and her difficult marriages?
I guess some would call this an “unpopular opinion” - but I attribute it to her acting classes at the actors studio.
She had starred in some of her greatest starring roles by the end of 1954, before she took any of those stupid classes, which occupied her for much of 1955.
Gentlemen prefer blondes, how to marry a millionaire, monkey business and the seven year itch all pre-dated her idiotic decision in 1955 to go to New York and study The Method.

State-facilitated suicides jumped 31% in 2022, accounting for over 4% of all deaths in Canada | Blaze Media:
Canada's Trudeau government recently released its fourth annual report on the northern nation's assisted-suicide regime, providing startling insights into the staggering number of lives that have been snuffed out by the state in recent years.
Last year, 4.1% of all deaths across the country were the result of state-facilitated suicide, up almost one point over 2021.
Hundreds of victims weren't moribund at the time of their executions. Previous reports have also cast doubt on whether all of these victims were voluntary or eligible.
