Video shows armed gang at Colorado apartment building taken over by migrants | Fox News

Potential gang activity was caught on surveillance camera in a Colorado apartment building after what one former resident calls "no accountability" kept law enforcement from assisting. The video shows many men armed with handguns, and one with a scoped rifle, bursting through the door of the apartment complex for unknown reasons. The group appears to be Tren de Aragua, or TdA, a transnational gang based out of Venezuela. The gang, with reportedly 5,000 members, has a motto of "real until death," or"real hasta la muerte."

Yes, it's the Bee... or is it??!!


 

Arlington incident shows media falling into same old Trump derangement syndrome

The coverage of the Arlington National Cemetery “controversy” shows the press using the same overwrought language, anonymous sources and liberal critics that they constantly return to, despite being proven wrong time and again. - By Post Editorial Board
You’d think after a decade of covering Donald Trump’s political career, the media would have learned some lessons.
You’d be wrong...
Take the Washington Post’s account, “How a Trump visit sparked turmoil at America’s most sacred cemetery.”
At issue: whether Trump’s team was allowed to take pictures in a certain part of the cemetery, and whether an employee was in the wrong to try to stop them.
  • In paragraph 20 — 20! — the father of a soldier who died in the Afghanistan bombing sparked by the Harris-Biden administration’s disastrous withdrawal says he welcomed Trump to the cemetery.
  • “We invited him. He didn’t come to us,” said Darin Hoover, father of Staff Sgt. Darin “Taylor” Hoover. “He has shown nothing but sincerity to all of us and for what happened to our children, and for anybody else to try to take that away from the ceremony — both at the wreath-laying and at the graveside — is unconscionable.”
Any editor reading that would think: That’s it, case closed...

Worse than the "pandemic" years!!

 

"A new Michigan law allows for a no call, no-show for employees.

Dave Bondy on X: " Those employees, under state law could not be disciplined. - Dave Bondy @DaveBondyTV
  • The Michigan law set to take effect in February next year, which mandates paid sick leave for all employees, regardless of their employment status. 
The owner, who operates a fast-casual chicken restaurant with her husband, shared her thoughts during a recent interview, highlighting the potential impact of the law on small businesses across the state. 
  • The law, known as the Earned Sick Time Act, will require employers to provide up to 72 hours of paid sick leave annually to all employees, including part-time, seasonal, and temporary workers...

David Marcus: What Obama's biggest lie can teach us about the suddenly centrist Kamala Harris | Fox News

David Marcus: What Obama's biggest lie can teach us about the suddenly centrist Kamala Harris | Fox News

In 2008, when Barack Obama was running for president, he flat out lied about opposing gay marriage based on his deep Christian beliefs. We know this because in a book published in 2015, former senior adviser to the president David Axelrod described Obama, after such a speech, complaining to him, "I’m just not very good at bulls---ing."

It turns out he actually was pretty good at it. Today, the American people have to ask themselves how good Vice President Kamala Harris is at B.S. as she seeks to transform herself from a San Francisco progressive into a blue-dog centrist Democrat. 

Germany Vows 'Knife Control' After ISIS Refugee Slashes Throats at Diversity Festival :: Gatestone Institute

After a Syrian Muslim refugee slashed the throats of a few middle-aged people at the Festival of Diversity, the German government has announced that it will ban knives over three inches long. - Daniel Greenfield
  • Right now, people in Germany can carry knives up to 4.7 inches long. The law will be modified so that they can only carry knives up to 2.4 inches long. 
  • No one appears to have considered the possibility that Muslim terrorists on the way to killing as many infidels as possible might violate the law and carry a concealed knife of 4 inches or longer. Such thoughts are unthinkable.
  • There were 13,844 "knife crime" incidents in Germany in 2023, which the authorities are blaming on the existence of knives and not the perpetrators, who are reportedly mostly young Muslim men...

Arlington Gives Gold Star Families the Run Around Over Trump Speaking Until Mike Johnson Steps In - Becky Noble

One man showed up at the request of the families, his name was Donald Trump.
It seems as though Trump derangement syndrome (TDS) knows no bounds. 
  • From things that can be classified as silly, like former First Lady Melania Trump never appearing on the cover of magazines like Vogue, to the extremely serious, like an assassination attempt. 
  • Closer to the serious end of the scale lands the folks at Arlington National Cemetery and their recent treatment of the 13 Gold Star families of service members killed in the Afghanistan withdrawal at Abbey Gate and the ceremony marking the third anniversary of that incident, with former President Donald Trump attending that ceremony.
  • Per a Daily Caller exclusive report, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) ultimately ended up intervening so that Trump, who had been invited to attend the ceremony and laid a wreath for the service members, could get into Arlington National Cemetery.

Sensing Online: Should compassion be a basis for public policy?

I recall a story in the Washington Post from the early 1990s, when I lived in northern Virginia, written by a Catholic nun.
It told of a ministry in downtown DC that she was working, offering free lunches to the poor.
When she and her fellow charity workers had started this ministry they had decided not to require means tests of the people who came to eat. 
Means tests - requiring the recipients offer evidence they could not afford to pay for the meals - would be degrading, they concluded...
Yet after several weeks the sister had changed her mind. 
The soup kitchen initially attracted diners who were clearly homeless, near-indigent or working poor. 
But as time went on, she observed the diners were better and better dressed. 
They were cleaner, obviously more healthy. 
At first, a large number of diners had walked to the kitchen, but now most drove, and as more time passed, older cars parked outside gave way to newer cars, then expensive cars. 
The kind of person who first began eating there became rarer and rarer.
The nun concluded that they should have required means testing to protect the poor....

REVEALED: The disturbing truth Kamala Harris does not want you knowing about her reign as border czar * WorldNetDaily * by Andrew Powell

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.

Harris’s Tax on Unrealized Gains is Only the Tip of a $5 Trillion Tax Iceberg By Adam N. Michel

Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign recently confirmed that she supports all the nearly $5 trillion in tax increases included in President Biden’s 2025 budget proposal.
  • Among the long list of tax hikes is a novel proposal to tax the unrealized gains of wealthy Americans...
  • but the fervor over this one bad idea has distracted from other more wide-reaching and even more economically damaging proposals.
  • For example, Harris’s 28 percent federal corporate tax rate and 44.6 percent top capital gains and dividend tax rate would give the United States the highest total tax rate on corporate income in the developed world when combined with state taxes. 
As I recently explained, workers ultimately bear most of the cost of the corporate income tax through lower wages and fewer job opportunities...
