Reverse Rapism; Ann Coulter

 Ann Coulter

 "If universities really cared about sexual assaults on campus, rather than spewing hate at traditional American institutions, they should be getting rid of DEI, not fraternities.


"The New York Times seems to have drafted half its newsroom to investigate the alleged fraternity gang rape at Cornell. Since “Jane Doe” filed her lawsuit about the 2024 incident two weeks ago, the Times has run more than 50 news stories, seven videos, four podcasts, a major magazine piece and a few letters to the editor on the case. No word yet on a Broadway musical.
"It’s been covered by ABC, NBC, CBS, all the cables and national newspapers, The Telegraph (UK), The Guardian (UK), The Jerusalem Post (you’d think they have more important things on their minds), Le Monde and Le Figaro, despite the French’s usual blasé attitude toward orgies.
"I interpret this to mean that sexual assault on college campuses is BIG news.
"So why do the media consistently bury stories about the rash of rapes committed by college football players? Didn’t they hear about the convictions of football stars like Jamarion Wilcox, Jayden Roberts, Jalen Kelley, Kendal Marks, Jamaal Evans, Ismael Vaifou and Kishawn Holmes? 
"Not just the media, but the universities cover for (certain) rapist athletes.In the 2010s, Baylor University wanted to become a football powerhouse, so it began recruiting the thugs that other football programs avoided. Sure, some coeds will be brutally gang-raped, but we could win bowl after bowl! 
"Sexual assaults on campus exploded. (On the plus side, Baylor won a slew of bowls.)
"A few years after this genius plan was implemented, an investigation by the law firm Pepper Hamilton found that at least 19 football players had been involved in dozens of rapes, including a minimum of four gang rapes. The university had to settle with 15 women. The head football coach, the athletic director, and the president of the university were fired or forced to resign. The following year, Baylor settled a lawsuit alleging 52 acts of rape by 31 football players between 2011 and 2014.'
"I’m not a national newspaper, but that sounds newsworthy to me." . . .More.

The FBI Destroyed MS NOW With One Photo After They Reported That Kash Patel Had Just Landed in Russia

Deplorable Daily 

"Then their star intelligence reporter invented a Moscow connection from nothing, aired it as breaking news, and issued a quiet correction two and a half hours later when the audience had already gone to lunch."

"MS NOW told its viewers Wednesday morning that FBI Director Kash Patel had secretly landed in Russia.

"But this was not true.

The Network That Cried Russia

"MS NOW told its viewers Wednesday morning that FBI Director Kash Patel had secretly landed in Russia.

"But he was at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia – thousands of miles away – shaking hands with law enforcement officers at an appreciation event.

"The FBI's rapid response account posted photos of Patel at the event and fired back: "MS Now's 'sources' are 'familiar' with NOTHING!" . . .More.

Netanyahu to Obama: 'Our Land Is Not Stolen Land'

Evil people know if they enter Israel, burn Jew's homes, break babies' necks with their bare hands or behead them, rape women they are starving; then malleable people in other lands will give them a land of their own. That October 7th told us all we need to know about that "two-state solution". The Tunnel Dweller

Netanyahu to Obama: 'Our Land Is Not Stolen Land' | Newsmax.com

"Ezekiel's vision of the valley of dry bones (Ezekiel 37) symbolizes the national resurrection of Israel, culminating in their return to the land. Ezekiel 37:21-22 states, "I will take the Israelites out of the nations to which they have gone, and I will gather them from all around and bring them into their own land. I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel." Topical Bible


"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected former President Barack Obama's comments about Israel's founding and Palestinian displacement, saying in a video posted Friday on X that Jews are not foreign occupiers in their ancestral homeland.

"'The Jewish people are not foreign occupiers in the land of our forefathers," Netanyahu said, The New York Post reported on Saturday.

"His response followed Obama's appearance Tuesday at the O2 Arena in Belfast, Northern Ireland, where the former president discussed the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with Irish journalist Susan McKay before an audience of about 7,000.

"Obama described European persecution as driving Jews to seek refuge in the Middle East, then discussed the displacement of Palestinians during Israel's establishment.

"'They took land off people, and they were expelled. And those people understandably said, 'This is injustice, and I want my land back,'" Obama said.

"Netanyahu rejected that characterization, citing the Jewish people's historical connection to the region.

"'Our land is not stolen land. This is our homeland; it's called Judea. That's where Jews come from. We've been attached to it for thousands of years," he said." . . . More.

Zack Polanski has suggested Israel has no right to exist under international law.

Topical Bible: Restoration of Israel's Land

Topical Bible: Israel's Restoration   "The promise of land to Israel originates with God's covenant with Abraham. In Genesis 12:7, the Lord declares, "To your offspring I will give this land." This promise is reiterated to Isaac and Jacob, establishing a perpetual covenant with their descendants (Genesis 26:3-4; 28:13-15). The land of Canaan, therefore, becomes a central element of Israel's identity and divine inheritance.

"Throughout the prophetic books, the restoration of Israel to their land is a recurring theme. The prophets speak of a future time when God will gather His people from the nations and restore them to their ancestral homeland. Isaiah 11:11-12 proclaims, "On that day the Lord will extend His hand a second time to recover the remnant of His people... He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; He will collect the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth."

Blitz on Cheshire is a look into the devastation that everyday people suffered at the hands of the Nazis. Through these images, see the damage and how these places were later restored." . . .

Michele Tafoya BODIES Peggy Flanagan for Refusing to Accept Accountability for Minnesota Fraud

 Twitchy 

"Michele Tafoya absolutely annihilated Peggy Flanagan last night in the Minnesota senate debate. Peggy Flanagan oversaw billions in fraud alongside Tim Walz, how in the world does she deserve a promotion? Vote Tafoya, Minnesota! " Clay Travis


  'We hate to set ourselves up for disappointment by believing that Michele Tafoya has a solid chance to flip a Senate seat in Minnesota this November, but with less than a month to go before Election Day, every indication is that this race is neck-and-neck, even in such a deep-blue state. 

"Part of the reason is that Tafoya has proven to be a formidable candidate. Just as importantly, however, is the elephant in the room of Minnesota politics: the rampant fraud that took place in the state under Governor Tim Walz and Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan, much of it committed by people who have no business being in America in the first place. 

"It also helps that Flanagan might be the most cringeworthy Democrat candidate in the current cycle this side of James Talarico (who, until very recently, could only be seen on the side of a milk carton). Flanagan has made everyone wince over the last few weeks for any number of reasons, from touting her "Native American name" to embracing "future President Hillary Clinton" to even her unfortunate fashion sense. 

"This week, Flanagan couldn't avoid direct questions as she sat down with Tafoya for a debate." . . . 

James Talarico -- 'Gone Boy'

 John M. Williams, Sr., M.D.


"Was it nine days or 12 that James Talarico was MIA with the “flu” -- or was it something else? There was speculation about a hospitalization in a mental health facility in Ohio, then a denial by the facility, which was quickly followed with proxy alibis from the legacy press, replete with talk of satellite imagery and surveillance photos. But what about a doctor’s note -- like the one we all have to bring to our employer when we get sick? Talarico didn’t have one -- instead he claimed he went to urgent care or to his primary care doctor, but he couldn’t seem to get that story straight either.

"Most of us remember the early days of COVID-19. It was just six years ago this month that President Donald Trump came down with a nasty case of it. There wasn’t much in the way of treatment at the time, but after an infusion of monoclonal antibodies and some IV fluids, he soldiered on, waving from his limo as he was whisked away from Walter Reed Medical Center. The public was kept informed about his progress with live updates from the man himself, and he never abandoned his responsibilities. This was the complete opposite of the Lloyd Austin fiasco, where the sitting Secretary of Defense “forgot” to call in sick to President Biden for several days, despite being hospitalized in an ICU for a life-threatening infection. All was forgiven when he came back, and the Biden administration acted as if nothing happened. Is this the Democrat “cone of silence” model that Talarico was following, expecting the same result?

"With less than three weeks to election day, this is crunch time as Talarico and Ken Paxton are neck and neck in the polls. Every second counts, and for a candidate to go incommunicado is almost unheard of -- unless there is something so bad and potentially destructive to their campaign that they can’t go public with it. If it truly was the “flu,” why didn’t Talarico do some public Zoom calls and assume temporary martyr status? Picture this -- a guy that’s so sick his entire appointment book gets canceled, yet here he is dragging himself to his laptop, struggling to put on some headphones -- while garnering sympathy (and votes) as we marvel at his gaunt appearance and pasty skin. His raspy voice assures us that he will continue campaigning, even if he has to be wheeled in to vote with an IV tube in each arm--this is the stuff that Hollywood is made of. Instead, we are met with a script more reminiscent of “Gone Girl,” where the protagonist goes missing with an elaborate plan to elicit sympathy from the press as the other characters try to seize the media narrative in their own ways." . . . More.

Where is the video, James?   "James Talarico has more videos than anyone.  You can spend an entire afternoon watching everything that this man has recorded over the years.  He has a video explaining how the angel told Mary about the baby.    

"What we don't have is a video of Talarico standing up to the Biden administration and rejecting their border policy. We have a campaign video saying that, but no video to support what he is claiming.". . .   Glad to see that the Border Patrol Union is not buying it:

" . . .We CANNOT afford another disaster on our borders!"

All the struggles ICE has had to endure for these months will count for nothing when this man governs anywhere near America's borders.

What Socialism Has Wrought in Cuba Will Be a Nightmare to Unwind

Visit the "warmth of collectivism" in Cuba.

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  

"It’s unlikely we will see developments toward a replacement of the Cuban regime before the midterms. But when those are over, don’t sleep on Cuba. It will come to a head, and soon."


"For reasons obvious to most readers of this column, I’m currently doing lots of podcast and radio interviews about Cuba. It’s been a timely subject for most of this year, though right at the moment there isn’t a lot happening which would augur a major transformation of that “imprisoned island,” as President Kennedy called it.

"It’s timely, because everybody understands that the status quo in Cuba can’t endure for much longer. The current regime in Cuba is running out of time.

"No country which can only supply a few hours a day of electricity to its people can survive for long. No country where the average worker pulls down $16 per month can survive for long. No country where sewerage systems and trash pickup have collapsed can survive for long. (RELATED: Cuba Is Next)

"Cuba is in a state of slow-motion collapse. Its population has decreased from 11 million to less than 9 1/2 million in the space of five years as the young, mostly 20-somethings and 30-somethings, are departing for the chance of a better life elsewhere. With those people, who would be most likely to actively topple the current regime, leaving the country, it’s actually somewhat stabilizing for the government. Demographically, Cuba is now one of the oldest, if not the oldest, countries in the Western Hemisphere. Septuagenarians are unlikely to take up pitchforks and torches against soldiers with rifles, though they might take to banging pots and pans in frustration against bare sustenance and candle-lit houses.

"Search the blogosphere for stories of daily life in Cuba, and you’ll find discussions of which books must be kept and which can be burned for kindling on charcoal stoves. You’ll find stories of dauntless entrepreneurs scratching out an existence as private trash haulers now that the government has largely given up on providing basic municipal services. Interestingly enough, American manufacturers of solar panels are beginning to find Cuba a growing market as those Cubans who do have the means are buying American-made systems to light and cool their houses; the state exclusively buys Chinese solar equipment as it seeks to supplement its moribund electric grid.

What happened to the Democrats we used to support and vote for?

Even Democrats I could respect are not heard standing against the deep silliness now embedded in the people of this party and those who vote for them. So much for our universities being a source of America's "best and brightest". Is there any trace of a true American leader in their ranks aside from John Fetterman?

Trump urges Katie Zacharia to reconsider press secretary job after less than a week at the White House

 NY Post  

“I just think the press has been very tough on Katie, and I said, ‘There’s no reason for you to have to do this. You’ve got a beautiful family, a fantastic husband and kids.'”

Ex-Fox News host says network slapping Katie Zacharia with 'pro hit job'

WASHINGTON — White House press secretary Katie Zacharia has left her post following a devastating series of media appearances and questions about her legal background.

"Word of Zacharia’s departure emerged shortly after Trump publicly urged her to reconsider her position as he left the White House for a pre-midterm rally in Georgia.

"“Katie’s been treated very badly by the media. Very, very badly, very unfairly, I think. And I just spoke to her about it. I said, ‘Katie, is this for you?’ Because, you know, she’s been treated very rough. And she’s a nice person,” said the president of the press secretary who started work this past Monday.

"“I’ve watched her for years on television, but I said, ‘Is this for you, Katie? Because honestly, you don’t need this.'”

"The California native is transitioning to a new role that will be announced later and is having dinner Friday with Vice President JD Vance, a senior administration official told The Post after Trump’s comments.

"The president claimed that Fox News primetime host Sean Hannity “was a little bit tough” on Zacharia in an interview Thursday night and that the hosts of “Fox & Friends” were similarly “a little tough” Friday morning — following a nervous 14-minute initial press briefing on Tuesday."...  More.

Court Docs Indicate El-Sayed Relative Was On Terrorist Watch List; For AOC, No Problem

El-Sayed has his own string of controversies to grapple with.

 The Federalist   

"Eman Abdelhadi, El-Sayed’s half-sister, was taken into custody for allegedly spitting on a police officer while protesting ICE; she has pled not guilty. El-Sayed’s birth mother reportedly worked for a designated terror organization that supported Osama bin Laden."

"Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s sister-in-law appeared in the Terrorist Screening Database, court documents filed in 2016 indicate. Mariam Jukaku, the sister of El-Sayed’s wife, Sarah Jukaku, was a participant in two suits the Council on American-Islamic Relations brought against U.S. government officials on behalf of individuals disputing their alleged placement on the watch list, according to court filings.

"One suit sought an injunction removing the plaintiffs from the database and a declaratory judgment that their Fifth Amendment rights had been violated. The other was a class action lawsuit the plaintiffs filed to obtain compensatory damages and recover legal fees from the government. Jukaku appeared in a Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) press conference announcing the suits. Texas and Florida recently designated CAIR a terrorist organization.

"Before joining the suits, Jukaku filed a complaint with the Department of Homeland Security after she reportedly noticed in 2012 that “her boarding pass was stamped with the ‘SSSS’ designation, indicating that she had been designated as a ‘known or suspected terrorist.'” Jukaku, who is Muslim, said the designation triggered “extensive searches, pat downs and chemical testing” and speculated that she was added to the watch list because of racism or religious discrimination, according to the suit. She also said she believed she had been removed from the list following her DHS complaint, though the government reportedly never confirmed either the removal or her presence on the list.

"When contacted for comment on the matter, DHS referred The Federalist to the FBI. In response to a comment request from The Federalist, the FBI stated that “it is the U.S. government’s policy to neither confirm nor deny a person’s inclusion in the Terrorist Screening Dataset, commonly known as the terrorist watchlist.”

"The Terrorism Screening Database (TSDB), which lists “more than a million names of individuals suspected of terrorism-related activities” and “people suspected of ties to terrorism,” is utilized by Customs and Border Protection, the Transportation Security Administration, and local law enforcement. A small number of individuals on the list are barred from flying in the U.S., while others may be subjected to heightened screening procedures and location tracking." . . .  More.
