France Surrenders, Part 5,034 - Muslim Brotherhood Edition
- “Qatar bought a soccer team, a giant energy conglomerate — and, it seems, a French President.” — Biff Spackle
- It said the Muslim Brotherhood (once aligned with Nazi Germany) had spent forty years (yes, four decades) secretly infiltrating French neighborhoods, schools, and city halls.

America desperately needs better election security | Blaze Media
America desperately needs better election security | Blaze Media:
The question is not whether a particular batch of machines, examined on one occasion, contained components from a designated adversary. The question is whether a computerized voting system, however sourced and however audited, can be defended against the cyber capabilities of a nation-state intelligence service.
The honest answer is no. The same Chinese cyber force that pre-positioned malware in our power grid, water systems, and ports does not require a chip stamped in Shenzhen to reach an American voting machine. It requires only that the machine exist, be connected to a network at some point in its life, and run software that can be updated. All three conditions are met.

'This is INSANE': Lefties decide 'mother' isn't allowed in state law, replace it with woke term * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh
'This is INSANE': Lefties decide 'mother' isn't allowed in state law, replace it with woke term * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
In the latest example of how social agendas and political ideologies actually try to warp reality, Democrat lawmakers in the state of New York have decided that their state's laws cannot reference "mother."
That's apparently because they're not "mothers," they're "gestating parents."
A report at LifeNews documented the step away from reality, which of course is demanded under the transgender agenda which says that men can be "mothers."

There's government corruption, and then there's whatever David Rush allegedly pulled off. - Ben SmithA CIA officer who spent 17 years inside one of the agency's most sensitive directorates created an entirely fake intelligence program and used it to funnel millions of dollars in federal funds straight into his own pocket, according to people familiar with the criminal investigation.

Dr. Clayton Forrester@DrClaytonForre1 - "Trump hired a bunch of chuds to restore the Reflecting Pool, which they did on time and on budget. Liberals are absolutely furious because they don't want voters to see that you can just fix things.Which drew this comment:
Richard wolf@RawdogDMonkey - Wait, you can fix things without a $452m study to determine if we should perform a $36m environmental impact study before awarding a $875m contract to do what some pool guys did for $3m?...The second chuckle came from how this exposes the federal bureaucracy and its associated array of consultants and NGOs as complete time wasting bullshitters rather than actual doers.
