Samidoun ("Steadfast"), a "Vancouver-based terrorist group," was founded in 2012 -- ostensibly to "assist Palestinian prisoners" -- by members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a designated terrorist organization in the United States, European Union and Canada. In practice, Samidoun is a front for the PFLP.
Who funds this terrorist-supporting madness? Samidoun, which does not publish any donor information, has a financial sponsor in the US, the Alliance for Global Justice, a registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that reportedly works to bring about a communist revolution through building coalitions of organizations, many involved in pro-Hamas activity, and, according to its own website: "We also act as fiscal sponsor to over 90 economic, social justice and human rights projects around the world that do not have their own tax-exempt status."
Who funds the Alliance for Global Justice? According to Influence Watch, several of the same megadonors that fund the Democratic Party in the US, such as George Soros' Open Society Foundations, and the Tides Foundation.
The Tides Foundation, which was once described as a "charitable money laundering" organization, and was previously supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, also sponsors anti-Israeli groups such as Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow..
The support for groups such as Samidoun by the Alliance for Global Justice led to demands to revoke its tax-exempt status.... It is now six months later, and the IRS has done nothing...

Michigan’s largest natural gas provider is seeking to hike customer rates by $248 million, a request that some consumer watchdogs say stands out in the context of recently approved bill increases.
Consumers Energy filed paperwork with state utility regulators on Monday, Dec. 16 outlining the request, which comes less than five months after the resolution of its last rate hike...
The request for money for high-speed rail is just one last-minute request California Democrats have sent to the White House. Last week, the Biden administration approved Newsom’s plan to eliminate sales of gas-powered cars by 2035 — despite the fact that sales of electric vehicles, even in California, are far too slow to meet the target. President-elect Trump is expected to repeal that policy as soon as he takes office, along with other federal electric vehicle mandates.
Today the meaning of words has become increasingly malleable and language is regularly used to gull the listener or reader into at best a state of torpor (listen to Kamala Harris or Keir Starmer) and at worst a state of acquiescence and submission as happens under repressive regimes.
A couple of recent examples illustrate the point.
Earlier this year The Spectator published a piece describing as ‘a man who claims to be a woman’ the writer of an interview with Nicola Sturgeon. The individual, a certificated trans person, would not have chosen the description but one cannot deny its accuracy...A complaint was made to IPSO, the Independent Press Standards Organisation (which oversees The Spectator and most of the UK’s print media) after the interviewer, Juno Dawson, claimed to have been ‘deliberately misgendered’...
My second example...and was detailed by Janice Davis on TCW – but it’s worth highlighting that Mrs Pearson was doorstepped at home on Remembrance Sunday by a couple of police officers unable to tell her anything about her supposed offence or its putative victim...Subsequently and for reasons unrecorded the supposed non-crime hate incident was ‘escalated’ into a potential criminal offence...
JERUSALEM – Outgoing U.S. President Joe Biden still has another four weeks until he leaves office, but he has pardoned or commuted sentences for some 1,500 people. There are sweepstakes for what the total number of will be, but there is one person – not even an American citizen for whom the Democrat's largesse and clemency might fundamentally change a country.
#1 When the economy is in good shape, holiday spending increases each year. In 2024, only 16 percent of Americans say that they are going to spend more than last year and 35 percent of Americans say that they are going to spend less… #2 The number of job openings in the U.S. is now the lowest it has been since January 2021, but unlike January 2021 we don’t have a pandemic to blame our poor performance on…
Implosion in the US - largest economy by far and one of largest CO2 emitters. Trump issued his drafts of day-one EO’s many of which focus on Drill Baby Drill
- US reverses policy
- pull out of Paris Accord
- end funding to COP
- end green subsidies for consumers
- end green subsidies for producers
- end disincentives for oil and gas exploration, production, and refining
- all energy forms will stand on their own merits
- Drill Baby Drill
- end ESG initiatives
- reopen off shore drilling in Gulf, Alaska, Atlantic and West Coast...
Implosion Around the World
- ESG programs are being canceled by Countries and Corporations
- Stockholders around the world are suing corporate boards and winning to overturn ESG/DEI
- Sri Lanka had earned one of the highest ESG rankings in the world just as they had famine and social collapse because their president banned synthetic fertilizer to get that ranking. The president fled the country in a military helicopter...
There's a similar sentiment whenever someone expresses a heterodox opinion on vaccines... Look at the disdain America's Chicken Little elites and the propaganda press heap on anyone who dares to question vaccine orthodoxy.
That ranges from NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers to moms who don't follow the CDC's vaccination schedule.
But that's a mistake.
For one, this reaction suggests the supposed experts have something to hide.
They don't want to bury their opponents with studies showing how they're right.
They want to shame them into silence or destroy their professional lives...
On that dark, freezing night almost 250 years ago, our first president set a standard for leadership we would all do well to emulate.
In the darkness and the frozen spindrift, a cargo boat groans through ice along the Delaware River.
At the helm, a heroic shadow, pointing toward land. Behind him, 2,400 soldiers. Most are standing, biting their lips in the frozen air, specks of ice dotting their reddened faces.
“Conahan’s conduct is forever a blight on Pennsylvania and is a slap in the face to the victims and their families who deserve justice to be served for his atrocious crimes,” Pugh wrote, per PAHomepage.
“His clemency places complicity and a stamp of approval on his behavior,” she continued. “Children are among the most vulnerable Pennsylvanians. This decision is nothing short of a travesty and his clemency is a miscarriage of justice.”
He spoke from the South Portico of the White House, in the midst of war...
The story behind Churchill’s Christmas Eve speech perfectly captures something essential about the man.
Two days earlier, the British prime minister stepped off a plane at an airfield near Washington, D.C., where he was warmly greeted by the American president, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. “I clasped his strong hand with comfort and pleasure,” Churchill later recalled. It had been just over two weeks since Imperial Japan had attacked Pearl Harbor, leaving nearly 2,400 Americans dead.
Within days, the United States, along with Britain, was officially at war with the Japanese and Nazi Germany...
1814 - The War of 1812 between the U.S. and Britain was ended with the signing of the Treaty of Ghent in Belgium.
1818 - Franz Gruber of Oberndorf, Germany composed the music for "Silent Night" to words written by Josef Mohr.
1865 - Several veterans of the Confederate Army formed a private social club in Pulaski, TN, called the Ku Klux Klan.
1914 - In World War I, the first air raid on Britain was made when a German airplane dropped a bomb on the grounds of a rectory in Dover.
1943 - U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt appointed Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower supreme commander of Allied forces as part of Operation Overlord.
1968 - Three astronauts, James A. Lovell, William Anders and Frank Borman, reached the moon. They orbited the moon 10 times before coming back to Earth. Seven months later man first landed on the moon.
1979 - Soviet troops invaded Afghanistan in support of the country's Marxist government.
Xaver Becerra, when he was pulled out of the position of attorney general for California to become Joe Biden's Health and Human Services chief, widely was known for one thing: his ardent advocacy for abortion for all.
Now the choice Biden made in appointing someone with the qualifications of Becerra is coming back to sting, as a congressional report is warning that billions of dollars of federal biomedical and public health research funding could be jeopardized because of his technical failure.
