Comment: "This woman is stupid... Unbelievable these people work for our Government."
Caroline Glick; "How Donald Trump’s victory and Israeli Defense Minister Gallant’s firing pave the way for a strategic realignment in the Middle East that will serve as the foundation of regional peace and stability." One wonders if the angry anti-Trump rallies contain the same keffieh-clad, ill-educated, youthful-voiced horde.
"By working together to achieve common goals, Israel and the United States, under Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump, can secure the peace of the Middle East and their nations’ separate and common interests in the international arena, to the benefit of the world as a whole."
"A collective sigh of relief was heard across Israel as the results of the U.S. presidential election were declared. But we cannot rest on our laurels. At this critical juncture, Israel must carefully assess the challenges it faces in the immediate term, as the lame-duck Biden administration completes its term. And it must set goals for the next four years to ensure that the opportunity Donald Trump’s return to the White House affords us is not squandered.
"To understand the immediate requirements, we need to remember what happened during Barack Obama’s final months in office.
"No longer concerned about winning an election, in December 2016, the Obama administration decided the time had come to punish Israel for opposing its nuclear appeasement of Iran and for rejecting its efforts to establish a Palestinian terror state. That month, America’s U.N. ambassador Samantha Power drafted an anti-Israel resolution that declared all Israeli presence beyond the 1949 armistice lines—including the Western Wall in Jerusalem—illegal. Power then pawned it off on other Security Council member states to sponsor and abstained from the vote, ensuring the passage of what became U.N. Security Council Resolution 2234.
"Resolution 2234 was the most anti-Israel resolution ever passed in the Security Council. It effectively called for an international boycott of all Israeli activities beyond the 1949 armistice lines. But 2234 wasn’t meant to be a standalone event. The Obama team planned to pass an additional resolution that would set out a timetable for Israel to agree to a Palestinian state in Hamas-controlled Gaza, all of Judea and Samaria and eastern, southern and northern Jerusalem. The resolution was supposed to include sanctions on Israel if it failed to capitulate within the set time schedule.
"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu worked with Trump’s transition team to scuttle it. Netanyahu and Trump’s advisers appealed to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who signaled that Russia would veto the resolution. Stunned, the Obama team angrily shuffled away.
"There is good reason to assume that in the two and a half months before Trump returns to office, the outgoing Biden team intends to get that long-shelved resolution passed." . . .

Dutch king ‘We failed the Jews again’ By Vered Weiss, World Israel News
"King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands expressed “deep horror and shock” over attacks against Israelis after Thursday’s Maccabi-Ajax football game in Amsterdam when at least 10 Israelis were injured by a mob and three were missing for nearly 12 hours.
"He said that the attacks, which were on the eve of the anniversary of Kristallnacht, was reminiscent of ‘dark and grim times for the Jewish people.
“ 'We failed the Jewish community of the Netherlands during World War II, and last night we failed again,” the Dutch king said to Israeli President Isaac Herzog in a phone call on Friday morning.
"The king added that the attacks should be “unequivocally condemned” and urged Dutch authorities to take action to ensure the safety of Jews and Israelis in the Netherlands.
"In addition, he urged an investigation into the incident.
"In an organized attack, an anti-Israel mob began attacking Israeli Maccabi fans after the match resulting in injuries for over 10 Israelis and three who were missing until they were located on Friday afternoon." . . .
'A new Kristallnacht': Jewish, Israeli figures express horror over Amsterdam pogrom . . ."Exactly 86 years after Kristallnacht, when Nazis, along with ordinary Germans hunted Jews through the streets of Europe, we see their ideological heirs rampaging through the streets of Amsterdam once again seeking to spill Jewish blood,” said CEO of CAM Sacha Roytman Dratwa.
Dratwa stressed a difference between 1939 and today: the State of Israel.
Babylon Bee has long been a parodical, satire site, but here we detect angry sarcasm unless I am only projecting. Perhaps it is my desire to jerk away those trendy designer keffiyehs, roll them up, and insert them in the most painful body part of any pro-Hamas bully within reach. The Tunnel Dweller:
"Anne Frank Museum Closed To Tourists As 1000 Jews Currently Hiding In Attic"
(Satire) AMSTERDAM — The Anne Frank House, a historic landmark with attached museum, announced today that it was currently closed to tourists following a slew of anti-semitic attacks in the area, leading to a sudden influx of approximately 1,000 Jews hiding in the building's attic.
"Sorry, folks, the museum is closed," Museum Curator Ezekiel Steinberg said. "We are, uh, beyond capacity. But don't worry, as soon as it's safe for Jews to come out of hiding again, we'll open back up."
Anne Frank and her family famously hid in the attic of Prinsengracht 263 for just over two years until being discovered by the Nazis. Now, Israelis who came to town for the Europa League football match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Ajax are hoping to break that record as they hide from angry Muslims.
"They'll never find us here because it's called 'the secret annex,'" said Rabbi Jonah Abramstein, referring to the name used for the attic by the Frank family. "It's secret. It's in the name. No one would think to look for Jews here." . . .Full article here
So here's the salient question. Will the Democrat National Committee (DNC) and/or Kamala Harris accept Trump's benevolent offer, or will they pridefully cut off the arrogant noses to spite their radical left faces? My gut tells me the latter
"He's really bad being Hitler," my son mused in a text this morning about the following story.
President-elect Donald Trump, in a Saturday post to Truth Social, offered the help the Democrat Party pay off the campaign debt of Vice President Kamala Harris.
I find that somewhat profound, given the vile bilge and abject lies about the now-president-elect that were parroted throughout the bitterly-fought 2024 presidential campaign. From "Hitler" to "fascist" to "racist" to "white supremacist," the baseless attacks against Trump were never-ending.
Yet, here's Trump's offer (emphasis, mine):
I am very surprised that the Democrats, who fought a hard and valiant fight in the 2020 Presidential Election, raising a record amount of money, didn’t have lots of $’s left over. Now they are being squeezed by vendors and others. Whatever we can do to help them during this difficult period, I would strongly recommend we, as a Party and for the sake of desperately needed UNITY, do. We have a lot of money left over in that our biggest asset in the campaign was “Earned Media,” and that doesn’t cost very much. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! (All emphases in original)
"Yes, the president-elect made the offer in classic Trumpian style, but the question is whether he truly means what he wrote. I believe he does, for the reason he stated. This country remains ripped apart, and Trump is now in a unique position to help it heal -- in a demonstrative, actionable way, vs. lip service, which is customarily thrown about by both parties after an election." . . . Full article here..
Think about it: The legacy media is wondering why they've lost their influence and all they need to do is realize that the most telling question that exposed Harris' lack of preparation came from one of the panelists of Kamala cheerleaders on "The View."

"The eventual collapse of the Harris-Walz campaign can be partly traced back to many things. The Dems ended up showing Biden the door and replacing him with a far-Left nominee with a record and past comments they worked hard to hide. The whole campaign was fake and that was obvious, but then they brought Tim Walz aboard to win over midwestern men. Yeah, we're still laughing at that one too.
"Harris also avoided tough interviews and even botched the softball ones. That brings us to what James Carville blames to a large degree for Harris getting wiped out on election day, which was her answer to a question from Sunny Hostin on "The View" about what she'd do different from Biden. You might remember Harris' answer: "There is not a thing that comes to mind in terms of — and I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact."
"James Carville said that was a turning point: . . ."
These people can and will use institutional power to punish their political enemies, which is why the ‘Trump will weaponize the DOJ’ talking points aren’t working; you people already did that. Is anyone wondering why Special Counsel Jack Smith is in the process of shutting down his sham legal actions against Trump?

| Passover when Democrats rule |
A federal disaster relief official ordered workers to bypass the homes of Donald Trump’s supporters as they surveyed damage caused by Hurricane Milton in Florida, according to internal correspondence obtained by The Daily Wire and confirmed by multiple federal employees.
A FEMA supervisor told workers in a message to “avoid homes advertising Trump” as they canvassed Lake Placid, Florida to identify residents who could qualify for federal aid, internal messages viewed by The Daily Wire reveal. The supervisor, Marn’i Washington, relayed this message both verbally and in a group chat used by the relief team, multiple government employees told The
Daily Wire
Daily Wire.The government employees told The Daily Wire that at least 20 homes with Trump signs or flags were skipped from the end of October and into November due to the guidance, meaning they were not given the opportunity to qualify for FEMA assistance. Images shared with The Daily Wire show that houses were skipped over by the workers, who wrote in the government system messages such as: “Trump sign no entry per leadership.”
[…]
The FEMA agents ordered not to help houses with Trump signs were operating in Highlands County, a deep-red area located in south central Florida that backed Trump by 70% on Tuesday. It was hit with tornadoes, torrential wind and rain, and flooding when Milton hit in October. . .
If you watched Biden's face during his speeches at Freedom Hall in Philadelphia, the last State Of The Union address, and Biden's speech at the DNC Convention, you would hate Trump's voters as well. I suggest you might want to assassinate President Trump, right? At least you might gag at the thought of helping them in time of need. TD
. . ."This is an unforgivable breach of trust. In any disaster recovery operation like this, bypassing any citizens because of their political affiliation should be dealt with more harshly than just "removing them" from the role - dismissal would be indicated, right?" . . .
We remember the damage unelected bureaucrats caused in the last Republican administration. "Deep State" anyone? TD
. . ."FEMA official Marn’i Washington ordered her staff to avoid assisting homes with Trump flags in their yards following the aftermath of a recent hurricane in Florida. Marn’i wanted them to suffer for their support for Donald Trump.
"A whistleblower came forward with text messages revealing FEMA official Marn’i Washington ordered relief workers to purposely skip over homes in Florida displaying Trump signs in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton.
"According to internal messages obtained by The Daily Wire, FEMA discriminated against Trump supporters in need of help in the aftermath of the most recent hurricanes that passed through the Southeast." . . .
"FEMA employees told the Daily Wire that Washington has not been punished for the guidance — and was simply shifted to a different Florida county. However, a FEMA spokesperson told The Post that Washington is “no longer working in the state of Florida or in any FEMA operations at this moment” pending the outcome of an investigation. The race card will be played in three...two...one...
I am sorry for those Israeli men, women and children who will not see the Trump victory because they were murdered by the Hamas raids and massacre, also any innocent Arabs killed because of Israel's response to the actions of Hamas. TD
